Позначка: МЗС

Ukraine’s defense is about protecting the very essence of who we are.

From bustling cities to peaceful villages, from centuries-old traditions to tomorrow’s innovations, we’re defending more than land. We’re preserving a nation’s soul.

Russia’s war against Ukraine shook the world and broke the rules of international law. And it demands justice. It demands that Putin be prosecuted in The Hague

Today, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine ratified the Agreement on establishing the Special Tribunal for the crime of aggression committed by Russia against Ukraine.

Earlier, Ukraine and the Council of Europe signed the agreement to create this Special Tribunal in The Hague – the first tribunal focused on the crime of aggression since World War II. It is designed to prosecute top Russian leaders for the war they started.

Putin and Russia’s top leaders must be held fully accountable.

Last night, Russia launched a horrific massive attack that struck multiple regions of Ukraine, including the city of Chernivtsi.

Russian drones and missiles that attacked the city on the night of July 12 took the lives of 26-year-old Diana Kravchenko, the manager of a pharmacy in Chernivtsi, and 43-year-old Sviatoslav Lazarenko, an employee of the Sniatyn City Council.

Eternal memory to the fallen.

Every strike against our people demands a decisive response from our partners: devastating sanctions, measures to block all circumvention, including through “shadow fleet”, lowering the oil price cap, and applying pressure on Kremlin accomplices who help it kill civilians in Ukraine.

Yesterday, Russia launched a record attack on Ukraine with 741 aerial weapons. Today, it struck again – hitting Kyiv, killing two women and injuring at least sixteen people, damaging homes and infrastructure across the city.
This keeps happening because Russia felt unpunished yesterday – and still believes it can strike again tomorrow. It must be stopped.
Additional funding for interceptor drones and air defense for Ukraine is essential. There’s also an urgent need to accelerate investments in the Ukrainian weapons production and technological development.
It’s crucial to tighten sanctions on Russia. The goals are clear. Russia won’t stop unless it’s forced to.

Russia invaded Ukraine to destroy our independence, erase our culture, and rewrite our future. But Ukrainians refused to surrender.

Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians took up arms to protect our country’s sovereignty, language, culture, and democratic future. They left their homes – to protect them.

No one wants peace more than Ukraine – a peace that allows life to flourish, communities to rebuild, and children to dream of the future with confidence.
We are committed to achieving it.

Mass killings, immense destruction, and forced deportations turned Mariupol into a symbol of atrocity.

In the spring of 2022, Russia killed thousands of civilians in the city – the exact death toll remains unknown. Residential neighborhoods were flattened. The maternity hospital and the Drama Theater – clearly marked as sheltering children – were deliberately bombed.

These are not stories of the distant past. These are war crimes of our time. Documented. Witnessed. Unpunished.

Justice must come – for Mariupol, for every life stolen, for every crime.

No one wants peace more than Ukraine – a peace that allows life to flourish, communities to rebuild, and children to dream of the future with confidence.
We are committed to achieving it.
