Russia invaded Ukraine to destroy our independence, erase our culture, and rewrite our future. But Ukrainians refused to surrender.
Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians took up arms to protect our country’s sovereignty, language, culture, and democratic future. They left their homes – to protect them.
No one wants peace more than Ukraine – a peace that allows life to flourish, communities to rebuild, and children to dream of the future with confidence.
We are committed to achieving it.
Mass killings, immense destruction, and forced deportations turned Mariupol into a symbol of atrocity.
In the spring of 2022, Russia killed thousands of civilians in the city – the exact death toll remains unknown. Residential neighborhoods were flattened. The maternity hospital and the Drama Theater – clearly marked as sheltering children – were deliberately bombed.
These are not stories of the distant past. These are war crimes of our time. Documented. Witnessed. Unpunished.
Justice must come – for Mariupol, for every life stolen, for every crime.
No one wants peace more than Ukraine – a peace that allows life to flourish, communities to rebuild, and children to dream of the future with confidence.
We are committed to achieving it.
Explosions. Fires raging in residential districts. Air alerts in the middle of the night. This is what Russia brings to Ukrainian cities. Last night in Kyiv, more than 20 people were injured.
Russia won’t change its destructive course on its own. For every strike against civilians and everyday life, there must be consequences – sanctions that hit Russia’s economy, its profits, and the infrastructure fueling its war. That’s the only fast way to shift the situation and reduce these attacks.
This depends on our partners – above all, on the United States. We need decisive action now to make Russia feel real costs for its aggression.
Warning: This video contains multiple explosion sounds.
Three years of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine.
Three years filled with the sounds of air raid sirens and the blasts of Russian missiles. Three years of Ukrainian resilience and the pursuit of a common goal – a just and lasting peace.
Ukrainians continue to fight for freedom and the right to determine their own future. The sounds of unity, justice, and gratitude must grow louder.
In 1994, Ukraine joined NATO’s Partnership for Peace programme – a historic step that opened a new chapter in European security cooperation.
Over three decades, Ukraine-NATO partnership has evolved into a deep and comprehensive relationship. Ukraine has proven itself as a reliable partner, contributing to European security and stability through joint exercises, missions, and defense reforms.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine have achieved unprecedented levels of NATO interoperability and professional excellence. Ukraine’s unique expertise and strategic position make it a valuable partner in maintaining Euro-Atlantic security.
Today, Ukraine produces more advanced weaponry than many global leaders – from drones and artillery to missile systems and armored vehicles.
In 2024, 30% of weapons used by our forces are Ukrainian-made, including 1.6 million domestically produced drones in the past year alone. Our battle-tested innovations are proving their worth daily against Russian equipment.
Ukraine is ready to contribute to transatlantic security by sharing our unique expertise and combat-proven technologies with NATO Allies.
We are deeply grateful for our partners’ military aid. Today, we also welcome investments in Ukraine’s defense industry. Together, we can strengthen global security.
Міністр закордонних справ України Андрій Сибіга засудив російського президента Володимира Путіна за його цинічні заяви та дії, які призвели до багатьох смертей російських солдат. Сибіга підкреслив, що Путін планує подальше захоплення української території та вбивство українців, і він абсолютно нехайний до життя своїх власних солдат. Він закликав до збільшення підтримки оборони України та введення руйнівних санкцій проти Росії, щоб примусити її припинити агресію. Український посадовець закликав інших країн визнати Росію терористичною державою і повністю ізолювати її, щоб змусити її повернутися до міру.
