22 Apr. (EUROPE PRESS) –
The president of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelenski, has insisted this Friday that the main objective of the country is to “vacate” all the territories and free its population from “Russian captivity”.
“State resources are being directed towards this goal. I am very grateful to everyone who helps. (…) Now, just like last year, we need to remain united, mobilized and fully focused on defense,” said the Ukrainian president in a statement.
In addition, he has ensured that his government “constantly” analyzes the development of hostilities, as well as the most dangerous areas, and has stated that the battlefront is the “number one priority.”
New units and brigades are being trained and integrated into the Ukrainian Defense Plan, Zelensky has reported.
The president of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), Odile Renaud Basso, has shown interest in the “urgency” of Ukraine’s economic recovery, as well as housing construction and other investment opportunities, according to the statement.
Zelensky has also asked for “help to defend himself”, and has emphasized that his Army “has no time for political formalities or impractical actions.”
