During his speech at the Congress of the European People’s Party in Bucharest, the former president of Ukraine and leader of the ‘European Solidarity’ party Petro Poroshenko called on Western partners to give Ukraine all the weapons it needs to win the war.
‘A fundamental priority for Europe is a stable security situation thanks to our joint victory. There is no separate victory for Ukraine, no separate victory for any member state of the European Union. That is one victory. There is no other way,’ he said.
He added that Ukraine and its allies must show Putin that they do not trust him and are not afraid of him, and that Ukraine will definitely win.
Poroshenko stressed that Ukraine needs support as long as it takes for the victory.
The former president explained that Ukraine needs munitions, modern fighter jets, and long-range missiles.
Poroshenko also emphasized the need to strengthen sanctions against Russia.
Amendments to Ukraine’s enforcement proceedings legislation, initiated by the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, have entered into force. Among other measures, the reform provides for the automated lifting of attachments on bank accounts immediately after debts in enforcement proceedings have been fully settled. The main practical benefit for citizens is the complete elimination of the need to contact an enforcement officer in person and wait for paper decisions once the debt has been paid.
The 157th Separate Mechanized Brigade has received another batch of supplies as part of Rinat Akhmetov’s Steel Front military initiative. This time, the military received seven quad bikes and four mobile shower and bath units.
In my previous column, I wrote about social innovations in Ukraine. Those innovations are part of civic resilience and the democratization of security, which Europe is paying close attention to right now. The EU is trying to work out how to spread responsibility for its own security across society as a whole, rather than leaving it to institutions alone. It is looking for concrete ways to bring ordinary people into the work of defense and resistance.
Petro Poroshenko’s lawyers have appealed to the High Anti-Corruption Court demanding that NABU be obligated to register proceedings regarding the fact of exerting influence on the court and to recognize Petro Poroshenko as a victim in the case of the Deputy Head of the Office of the President, Iryna Mudra, due to her pressure on Supreme Court judges who were considering a lawsuit to overturn sanctions.
Internationally recognized brands and financial institutions should direct capital to Ukraine now, not waiting for the hostilities to end. This was emphasized by Rinat Akhmetov, president of FC Shakhtar, during a working visit to UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, where he met with UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin.
