“Thank you to each and every warrior! I am proud of you! And I thank all of our Land Forces – today is exclusively your day,” said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a traditional address to the Ukrainian nation, recorded in Kupiansk, Kharkiv Region, on Dec. 12.
I wish you good health!
Today, I am in the Kupyansk sector, with our warriors who are getting the job done for Ukraine here. The Russians kept going on about Kupyansk – the reality speaks for itself. I visited our troops and congratulated them. I thank each of the units, everyone who is fighting here, everyone who is destroying the occupier. Today, achieving results on the frontline is crucial so that Ukraine can achieve results in diplomacy. This is exactly how it works: all our strong positions within the country translate into strong positions in the negotiations to end the war.
