The Russians Must Not Get Used to Believing That Their Missiles and “Shaheds” Help Them in Any Way
12 February 2026 - 19:25
Fellow Ukrainians!
Right now, recovery efforts are underway in Kyiv, Odesa, Dnipro and the region, as well as several other regions following the Russian strike.
It was yet another massive strike against the energy sector. Once again, there was a large amount of ballistic weaponry. Most of these Russian weapons targeted specifically energy facilities. There were 24 ballistic missiles last night, as well as one cruise missile and more than 200 drones. A significant portion of them was shot down.
- The Russians must not get used to believing that their missiles and “shaheds” help them in any way.
- They only complicate everything and undermine what are, frankly, already limited diplomatic opportunities.
- That is exactly why support for Ukraine is needed.
- Sufficient pressure on Russia is needed.
- The war must be ended with guaranteed security and definitely without any rewards for the aggressor for the war.
- If an embassy remains silent, that means its work is unsatisfactory.
- Ukraine must be heard – heard everywhere in the world.
- Ukraine must be supported.
- I expect relevant results in support of Ukraine as early as this week.
Europe looks for U.S. resolve as Ukraine talks bog down
As always, I thank our repair and emergency crews, our energy companies, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine, municipal services – those who are working effectively – as well as local community and regional leaders who truly stand with their people and their communities. Every morning, there is a coordination call on the situation in our regions, and it is always clear who is truly working effectively and who only calls themselves authorities and is not doing enough for people. Of course, there will be conclusions.
- Ukraine is ready for meetings, but at this point, unfortunately, we still do not have firm answers from Russia regarding what has been proposed for next week.
- So far, we hear nothing but more manipulation around “Oreshnik.”
- This is certainly not about peace.
And one more point.
The decision of the International Olympic Committee against Vladyslav Heraskevych, our athlete who simply remembers and honors Ukrainian athletes whose lives were taken by Russian strikes, is
Sport must not be devoid of memory and respect. Ukrainians are already preparing for competitions under extraordinary conditions – under conditions of war.
And it is not politics to speak about what is actually happening.
Politics is when Russians hide behind other passports and still make it to competitions.
Politics is when the Russian flag is still present at the Olympics is when the International Olympic Committee is afraid of the truth and, because of that, provokes chaos itself.
Full support to our athletes.
- I thank all of you.
- I thank Vladyslav Heraskevych.
- I have signed a decree awarding Vladyslav the Order of Freedom – and I thank him for his principled stance.
- Thank you to everyone who does not give up, who fights, who protects lives, who restores everything after Russian strikes, and who fights for Ukraine as for themselves.
Glory to Ukraine!
