A nation that fights so bravely earns respect for its state. And that respect turns into steps of support from partners.
I am proud of all our people who, every day on the battlefield, through their actions and courage, do everything to ensure that Ukraine receives the necessary protection and that our partners continue supporting our fight.
I am grateful to every country and leader who stands with Ukraine and works alongside us to strengthen our defenders. I thank our warriors and everyone thanks to whom Ukraine stands and will endure.
I met with Taoiseach
@MichealMartinTD of Ireland.
Ukraine deeply appreciates the support and assistance of the Irish people and government, as well as everything they have provided to help strengthen our defense against Russian terror.
We discussed steps toward ending the war with a guaranteed peace for Ukraine and all of Europe, the importance of unity between Ukraine, Europe, the United States, and all those committed to global stability on this path. We also talked about security guarantees and cooperation on Ukraine’s path to the EU.
We are grateful to Ireland for standing with us in all of these areas.
We also addressed Ireland’s participation in the Demining Coalition and EU training missions, as well as non-lethal security assistance that will help save lives. Additionally, we discussed our humanitarian initiative, Food from Ukraine, and how Ireland can contribute.
I spoke with the President of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse
@Franklin_Graham.
I am grateful for the prayers for peace in Ukraine and the support for Ukrainian children and all our people. In this time, as Russia continues to commit crime after crime, this support is more important than ever.
Russia has abducted thousands of Ukrainian children from the occupied territories, and we must do everything to bring them home—to their families, to Ukraine.
In our country, we are doing everything to protect religious freedom, preserve normal life, restore what has been destroyed by the Russians, and prevent them from turning our cities and villages, schools, and churches to ashes.
Thank you for the prayers and support.
An important visit to the United States. In Washington, I met with a bipartisan delegation from the U.S. Senate.
Our discussions focused on the continued military assistance for Ukraine, relevant legislative initiatives, my meeting with President Trump, efforts to achieve a just and lasting peace,
our vision for ending the war, and the importance of robust security guarantees.
We take pride in having strategic partners and friends like the United States.
We are grateful for the unwavering bicameral and bipartisan support for Ukraine throughout all three years of Russia’s full-scale aggression.
