Zelensky spoke before G7 leaders
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky spoke at the summit session of the G7 countries and Ukraine.
This is reported by the Office of the President, Censor.NET informs.
"For many years we have heard that Russia can attack any country with impunity with hypersonic missiles that seem to be unstoppable. Russia wanted us to be scared and at some point betray our values. Well, that's over.
"Patriot in the hands of Ukrainians showed what democracy is capable of," Zelensky said.
He emphasized that the "air shield" can be complete only when ground-based air defense systems are supplemented by modern aircraft in the air.
"When our pilots know the F-16 and when these machines appear in our skies, it will be important not only for Ukraine. It will be a historic moment for the entire security architecture in Europe and the world," Zelensky is convinced.
The president also emphasized that Ukraine would like the dots over the "i" in the matter of security guarantees to be placed before the NATO summit in Vilnius, which will be held on July 11-12.
"We are united by another principle - rationality. We always act practically, protecting our values. And the Ukrainian peace formula is an obvious expression of rationality. I thank you for supporting our formula. We would like to discuss the steps to implement the formula and the details of the organization of the peace summit within our meetings today," Zelensky concluded.
The President of Ukraine also addressed each of the leaders of the G7.
"I believe that the wings of our common freedom will be evidently the strongest in the world!
