President Zelenskyy: I directed officials to report on suspended US support programs

“Today, I instructed Government officials to provide a report on those American support programs that are currently suspended. These are humanitarian programs,” said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a traditional address to the Ukrainian nation on Jan. 28.

I wish you health, fellow Ukrainians!

A few key points for today.

The Commander-in-Chief’s report on the frontlines – the Donetsk and Kharkiv regions, the operation in the Kursk region. I held a meeting of the Staff. Among the issues on the agenda was the formation of corps in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. There are concrete details on this matter. We will continue to strengthen our army. We are scaling up combat brigades and the right army experience. The first established brigades will serve as a basis for other systemic steps; the modernization of the army system has no alternatives. The Minister of Defense reported on communication with our partners. I also held a meeting with our diplomats – the team of the Office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We are planning our international activities for February – meetings and negotiations. The key objectives are ensuring the unity of our partners – which is the foundation of everything – and coordinating our efforts in the European direction.
