Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting on stabilization measures in the de-occupied Kherson region

As part of a working trip to the Kherson and Mykolaiv regions, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting on stabilization measures in the de-occupied territory of the Kherson region.

The Head of State listened to the report of the commander of the Kherson operational-strategic group of troops, Brigadier General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi about the situation in the region.
Head of the Kherson regional military administration Yaroslav Yanushevych informed the President about the state of the city's critical infrastructure and life support systems.

70-80 thousand people currently live in Kherson. The city has a difficult situation with electricity supply and communication.

"Everything will return. Yes, unfortunately, the occupiers, who destroy everything on their path, destroyed the entire power supply network. But our services are working, and everything will return," the President emphasized.

As Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted, points of assistance to residents will gradually appear in the city, as was the case in the Kharkiv region.

For his part, Yaroslav Yanushevych noted that, on the instructions of the Head of State, measures are being taken to restore the destroyed power transmission lines going to the Kherson region.

"We are working on this issue round the clock together with Ukrenergo. Our electricians are moving right behind the explosives technicians. And we hope that the electricity supply will be restored in the near future," he said.

The participants of the meeting discussed the provision of assistance by neighboring regions, in particular Mykolaiv and Dnipropetrovsk regions, in the establishment of logistics and the return of normal life to the liberated territories of the Kherson region.

In Mykolaiv, Volodymyr Zelenskyy also visited the humanitarian headquarters that operates under the RMA and has been providing assistance to people in need since the first days of full-scale Russian aggression.

Thus, over 4 million tons of humanitarian aid was distributed among the communities of the region in 9 months. The population is regularly supplied with food and non-food kits, warm clothes, medicines and building materials for repairing houses damaged by shelling.

The humanitarian headquarters has already sent aid to Kherson, which was recently liberated from the Russian occupiers. This includes, in particular, more than 25 tons of food kits, 26 pallets of food products, and 3 tons of hygiene products. Also, an ambulance, more than 6 tons of medicines, including insulin and other critical medicines, as well as medical supplies that were purchased for the Kherson region and stored in Mykolaiv until de-occupation were transferred from the Mykolaiv region to Kherson.

President in the Interview with NBC:

It is Important to Fill the Package of Assistance from the United States with Scarce Weapons

21 April 2024 - 19:42

On NBC's "Meet the Press", Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told about what should be included in the aid package approved by the U.S. Congress for Ukraine the day before.

The Head of State thanked the U.S. House of Representatives, both parties, Speaker Mike Johnson, President Joseph Biden and the entire American people for supporting Ukraine.

"We have been waiting for six months. But we didn't just sit around, we all fought together. I would like to thank our entire team and the entire team in the United States of America who did everything to ensure a positive decision. It will definitely help us a lot today. I believe that this support will effectively strengthen Ukraine and the Armed Forces," Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.

The President emphasized that thanks to this support, we will have a chance at victory.

But for this, it is important to fill the package with what Ukraine needs most.

We need scarce weapons to repel the Russian invaders.

"This includes artillery, strategic long-range weapons, ATACMS – all of this is important to avoid losing people at the front. The reason we are losing them is because we don't have the appropriate long-range weapons. This, as well as air defense, which is so important, is certainly a priority today," the Head of State said.

According to the President, Ukraine is now waiting for a positive decision from the Senate and hopes to receive the aid without delay.

"After stabilization, we have every chance to regain the initiative. To do this, we must have the appropriate weapons," Volodymyr Zelenskyy summarized.
