Change is inevitable.
You thanked me for Mriya and Diia. In return, I thank you for giving me hope.
I’ve never felt a responsibility this great — not even while serving in government.
Thank you to our veterans and service members for holding the line and upholding our honor.
The dialogue is happening. I believe we will succeed.
It is important that Ukraine will do everything to be technically ready for EU accession by 2027. At least the main steps we will accomplish.
I want a specific date. If in the agreement, under which America, Russia – specifically Putin – I as President of Ukraine, and Europe sign, there is no date, then Russia will do everything to block the process. And not even with its own hands, but through certain European representatives.
We have witnessed similar situations: when clusters are not opened. Problems arose with candidacy. There was an entire wave of challenges, and our struggle. But nonetheless, we achieved candidacy. With the clusters, it is more complicated.
For us, the EU means specifics, because this is about security guarantees for Ukraine. These are specific details, with a specific date. And my signature today, on the 20-point plan, the plan to end the war, guarantees Ukrainians that there will be a specific date for our accession.
The end of the war must be fair, and I am grateful to everyone who stands with Ukraine and our people today for the sake of peace in Ukraine, which is defending the vital security interests of our European nations.
Ukraine values and fully supports the statement by President Macron, Prime Minister Meloni, Chancellor Merz, Prime Minister Tusk, Prime Minister Starmer, President Ursula von der Leyen, and President Stubb on peace for Ukraine.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Justo hoy se cumplen 11 años desde que Ucrania liberó Sloviansk y Kramatorsk de los terroristas enviados por Rusia
Hoy, el objetivo sigue siendo el mismo, pero aún más ambicioso, expulsar a los invasores de cada metro del suelo ucraniano
¡Слава Україні!🫡
🇺🇲 🇺🇦 “This is not easy... Send him my regards,” — Trump’s emotional response to a Ukrainian BBC journalist whose husband is fighting on the front lines.
During a briefing in The Hague, Ukrainian journalist Miroslava Petsa asked the U.S. President whether the United States is ready to provide Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine amid renewed Russian attacks.
Trump showed sympathy upon learning that the journalist’s husband is a Ukrainian soldier. He asked where he lives and expressed his support.
Regarding the Patriot systems, the part of Trump’s response that reflected his empathy was as follows:
“They are very effective. Getting them is not easy. But that’s a really good question. I’d like to see if we can deliver them.”
▪️ On social media, this moment from Trump’s 45-minute speech was described as a “rare human moment.” French and American journalists noted that the journalist’s sincerity and emotions clearly moved the U.S. President — and perhaps it’s precisely these personal stories that could change his stance on Russia’s war against Ukraine.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz: Tomorrow is June 6th, D-Day, when the Americans once ended a war in Europe
Trump: “That was not a pleasant day for you."
Merz: “This was the liberation of my country from Nazi dictatorship”
We await a full and lasting ceasefire, starting from tomorrow, to provide the necessary basis for diplomacy. There is no point in prolonging the killings. And I will be waiting for Putin in Türkiye on Thursday. Personally. I hope that this time the Russians will not look for excuses.
Our enemy doesn’t have the most formidable weapon we do: freedom of men and women

Putin's comments today are:
- NOT a peace proposal, but an ultimatum;
- NOT based on the principles of the UN Charter as he tries to replace law with force, murder, and destruction;
- NOT lawful because he demands that a sovereign country withdraw from its sovereign territory rather than withdrawing from occupied territories himself;
- NOT legitimate because Ukraine is in full right to seek NATO membership after Putin scrapped all security treaties with Ukraine by invading us;
- NOT serious but a mere smokescreen as he is nerve-racking because of the upcoming success of the Peace Summit to be held in Switzerland tomorrow.
Everything Putin says about peace is nothing more than a PR stunt until he stops showering Ukraine with barrages of missiles and sending more cannon fodder to the battlefield.
🔴Esta señora nos está contando un bulo enorme que, casualmente, favorece los intereses de Putin.
Ucrania no llegó a un acuerdo con Rusia sin coerción, lo hizo bajo el temor de que el Estado ucraniano pudiera desaparecer y de que los rusos cometieran matanzas al estilo de Bucha.
Un acuerdo de paz no puede considerarse legítimo cuando una de las partes está siendo amenazada con una pistola en la sien, con la promesa de ejecutarte si no aceptas.
Eres una miserable, Irene, y me estoy quedando corto...
