The Netherlands – thanks for the new defence package that will strengthen our air shield.

The joint work of the Netherlands, the United States, Denmark, and the United Kingdom to buy anti-aircraft missiles. This is what will save thousands of our people.

Germany – thank you for the equipment delivered this week, for the unchanged strength in protecting lives from Russian missile terror. Thank you for your willingness to provide us with missiles for the Patriot systems!

Italy – thank you for implementing our defence agreements!

Thank you, Denmark, for your willingness to work quickly so that our coalition of modern fighters can really bring the end of this war closer to our victory. A joint victory! Thank you again!

Denmark and Norway – I want to thank you separately for your joint work to strengthen our artillery. Russia has brought such a war to Europe when it depends on the artillery whether freedom moves forward. Thank you for the shells for our soldiers!

Sweden – the twelfth defence aid package and a real readiness to start training our pilots on modern fighters. Thank you!

The United Kingdom – thank you for your continued leadership in expanding our defence capabilities and for every long-range missile we have been given, all of which are 100 percent operational. This week a decision [was made]  on additional support. Thank you again!

Canada – thank you for your continued help and for the new steps we have worked out, now being implemented. Artillery, air defence...

Poland – thank you for the resolution adopted by the Seimas in support of Ukraine's membership in NATO. The right signals at the right time – just when we are preparing meaningful content for the summit in Vilnius.

Luxembourg – I want to thank you for the parliament's decision, recognizing the historical truth, the truth about the Holodomor – the genocide of the Ukrainian people. Luxembourg became the 26th country to officially recognize the Holodomor as genocide. And we continue our work for the global recognition of the truth."

Details: Zelenskyy also thanked all the member countries of Ramstein, as their regular meeting was held this week.

The President also thanked each country and international organisations that helped Ukraine overcome the consequences of the Russian terrorist attack at the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant.

"We will once again prove the invincibility of our collective power when we restore normal life to all people and communities affected by this Russian evil of ecocide," he said.

In addition, Zelenskyy thanked everyone who trains the Ukrainian military personnel, and also thanked the Tavria operational strategic group  "for moving forward" on the southern front.
