I note with gratitude in this context the readiness of the largest EU countries to take on the burden of military and financial support for Ukraine in the face of a possible reduction in US involvement,

Scenarios for resolving the conflict and ending Russia’s aggression should be developed in close cooperation with the Ukrainian authorities,

1,000 days together. 1,000 days of Ukraine,

the country’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted in a video, recalling the key moments of the wartime struggles and pain, and the support Ukraine received

Ukraine will never submit to the occupiers, and the Russian military will be punished for violating international law,

a statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Kyiv declared

Volodymyr Zelenskyypresident

Every new Russian strike only confirms Putin’s true intentions. He wants the war to continue, he is not interested in talking about peace,

Zelenskyy said

On one hand, it proves Ukrainian bravery in the face of brutal Russian aggression. […] On the other hand, this number proves the failure of the international community, including this esteemed council, to stop wars of aggression and atrocities,

he said

The military operation against Kiev continues ... and will be completed,

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters, using Russia's preferred language for its invasion

Dmitry Peskovpress secretary

It was necessary to bring our principles in line with the current situation,

Peskov added, calling the update a "very important" document that should be "studied" abroad

Russia's use of banned chemicals on the battlefield once again demonstrates Russia's chronic disregard for international law,

the foreign ministry said

We need peace through strength, not appeasement,

the ministry added, referring to growing calls for Ukraine to sit down at the negotiating table with Russia to end the war

We should not be afraid of Russia's threats. Instead, we should take decisive actions to counter the threats coming from Russian aggression."

Asked to respond, she said

He (Putin) sees these attempts (to start talks) as a weakness. And what we need now is not weakness and appeasement. We need strength,

she said, without saying who was seeking talks

They demonstrate that Putin doesn't want peace. He wants war,

Yevheniia Filipenko told Reuters in an interview

We do not feel war fatigue amongst partners,

she said
