We are building a state that has enough strength and self-respect to do both at once: preserve its heritage and pursue ambitious plans. A Ukraine that values its past and believes in its own future. A state that is not afraid of the phrase “for the first time” –...

🇺🇦 Zelensky: July 15. Ukraine celebrates Statehood Day. We are proud that we are the heirs of Kyivan Rus, the Cossack state and have a thousand-year experience of statehood. A thousand-year experience of courage, a desire to live in freedom, independently and independently, to follow only our own path and be who we are - to be Ukraine. We are not focused only on the history that was. We are working on the history of Ukraine that will be. On a state that will be able. On independence that will be guaranteed. Ukraine and Europe will create an anti-ballistic shield together for the first time. A historic project where Ukraine is not an observer, but one of the leaders, uniting countries and the strongest defense enterprises of Europe. The FREYJA project has been launched.

For the first time, Ukraine is developing its own ballistic missiles and deep-strike capabilities. These are not merely systems under development, but real capabilities that are already operational and reaching distances that were previously unattainable. 2,884 kilometers. That is the distance from here to the Omsk oil refinery. A historic range. Historic precision. And unlike Russia, which wages war against residential buildings, schools, and churches, Ukraine strikes the “sponsors” of Putin’s war and the tools that help him kill. Some say that, with modern technology, we are sending Russia back to the Middle Ages. Others recall Napoleon and the days when Moscow was ablaze. But for Ukraine, it is not grand rhetoric that matters – it is the result. Our ultimate goal is not Russia without gasoline, but Ukraine without Russia. Ukraine without war. Ukraine with Europe. And Ukraine and Europe without the threat from Moscow. From an address on Ukrainian Statehood Day – the Day of the Baptism of Kyivan Rus–Ukraine. (4/5)

July 15. Ukraine marks Ukrainian Statehood Day. We are proud to be the heirs of Kyivan Rus and the Cossack state, and to have a thousand years of experience in building our state. A thousand years of courage, of the desire to live in freedom, to live as a sovereign and independent nation, to follow only our own path, and to be who we are – to be Ukraine. We are proud of what everyone has witnessed throughout the full-scale war – Ukraine’s thousand-year-old character. Ukraine respects its history. It remembers every joy and every pain our people have had to endure. But we do not live constantly looking back. We are not focused solely on the history that has already been written. We are shaping Ukraine’s history yet to come. A state that will succeed. An independence that will be guaranteed.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Zelensky says Ukraine's FREYJA system can become "common system" for Europe's protection: "Everyone recognizes the ballistic threat posed by Russia, and that threat is growing. At the same time, Russian companies that produce ballistic missiles are not yet subject to comprehensive global sanctions. One of the worst consequences of the Russian war against Ukraine, and also a result of Iranian tactics, is that potential aggressors around the world are seeing the damage that ballistic missiles can inflict. Therefore, the global ballistic threat will continue to grow, and all anti-ballistic defense capabilities must also increase. Our FREYJA system can become a common system for Europe, providing integrated protection. FREYJA will be quick to produce and battle-tested. Ukraine is capable of producing both the missile and the launch system, and the crucial element is cooperation with European countries and companies that have radars, sensors, and everything else needed for an effective anti-ballistic system."

The reality in Ukraine right now is that sometimes we do not have the missiles needed to intercept ballistic missiles. That is why we launched a new Anti-Ballistic Missile Program that includes coordination across the political, governmental, and industrial dimensions and can deliver anti-ballistic weapons at scale: the system and the missiles for it. We named the program FREYJA, and today our Anti-Ballistic Missile Coalition held its first, inaugural meeting. Thank you, friends, for your support. It is important that European companies are also represented – specifically those that manufacture critical components for defense systems: Fire Point, Thales, Diehl Defence, Saab, Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace, Weibel, Leonardo, Sener, MBDA, Eurosam, Safran, and Destinus. Each of us has important pieces. Ukraine has missiles, but they are only part of the system. Together, over the next 12 months, we can build this system at scale – FREYJA. Joint press conference with the co-chairs of the Coalition of the Willing. (1/3)

Today is Europe Day. And Ukraine is marking it not formally or through sloganeering, but fully aware that we are already an inseparable part of the European family. We are defending Ukraine, our independence, our future – and in doing so, we in Ukraine are defending our Europe. A Europe of which Ukraine has been and will remain a part. From the first days of the full-scale war until today, Europe has stood with Ukraine. And this is not charity – it is a choice made by Europeans: to stand on the same side as the brave and the strong – the Ukrainians who are fighting today for peace and true protection against tyranny, not only for themselves, but for the entire continent. And we will inevitably defend our state, our people, and our right to freely choose our future – a future in Europe. Glory to Ukraine!

Everyone can see the ballistic missile threat posed by Russia – and this threat is growing. At the same time, Russian enterprises that manufacture ballistic missiles are still not subject to strict global sanctions. Some key Russian enterprises involved in ballistic missile production are not under sanctions imposed by the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Switzerland, and other jurisdictions. Of the seventeen key Russian enterprises involved in producing ballistic missiles, most, unfortunately, can exploit sanctions loops in the jurisdictions of various partners. We need greater coordination, daily engagement with partners on sanctions, and greater synchronization of sanctions. Unfortunately, one of the worst consequences of Russia’s war against Ukraine – and of Iran’s tactics as well – is that potential aggressors around the world can see how much harm ballistic missiles can inflict on human life. The global ballistic missile threat will therefore continue to grow, and all anti-ballistic defense capabilities must grow as well. Our FREYJA can become a shared European system providing integrated protection. FREYJA will be quick to produce and battle-tested. Ukraine is capable of manufacturing both the missile itself and the launcher. The decisive factor is cooperation with those European countries and companies that have the radars, sensors, and everything else required for an effective anti-ballistic system. And we already have agreements in place with all of these companies and all the necessary countries. These are the ten countries participating in the Anti-Ballistic Coalition: Ukraine, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom – as well as twelve manufacturers that have already joined. The Anti-Ballistic Coalition and the FREYJA project are open to other participants capable of making a genuine contribution to security across Europe. From an address at the meeting of heads of Ukraine’s foreign diplomatic missions. (4/7)

‼️ ZELENSKYY: The PURL program—purchasing anti-ballistic air defense systems from the U.S.—is temporary. Ukraine and the EU will jointly produce their own anti-ballistic systems in the future. “As for PURL. Why do we need this program? It's (providing us with) a specific anti-ballistic air defense system. Unfortunately, Europe doesn't have this yet. I'm one hundred percent sure that Europe, together with Ukraine, the EU will produce anti-ballistic systems. Is it a matter of time? Yes. And while we don't have this, while there's a shortage, we must protect our families, our people. And for that, we need the PURL program. And we're grateful to Germany for its contributions to this program” - Ukrainian President during his visit to Berlin ok Tuesday, April 14th, 2026.

France. Today, important talks will take place here that can open up significantly greater opportunities for Ukraine to strengthen its defenses. Our top priority is anti-ballistic defense. We will present our Anti-Ballistic Program to our partners and, for the first time, hold a meeting at the level of leaders, national security advisors, and defense companies from countries that can make a concrete contribution to building a new anti-ballistic system. I will also meet with French President Emmanuel Macron and take part in the Coalition of the Willing meeting. We will work to give this format new momentum. The First Lady is scheduled to meet with the new Director-General of UNESCO to discuss the further development of the strategic partnership and expanding cooperation between Ukraine and the Organization within UNESCO's mandate. We will thank France for its historic support, and our service members will take part in the parade marking France's national holiday – Bastille Day. We thank everyone who stands with Ukraine.

2026 is a special year for our state. Ukraine is marking anniversaries: the adoption of the Constitution, the establishment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the restoration of our state symbols and the hryvnia. And the culmination of all this is August 24, 2026 – Independence Day of Ukraine, the 35th anniversary of its restoration. It is important that in such a year, Ukraine is giving rise to new, landmark elements of its state-building. Today, I submitted to Parliament a law on the Ukrainian National Pantheon. The names of all the heroes who, across different centuries and eras, fought for Ukraine and inspired Ukraine will be brought together and forever inscribed in our history – with a capital letter, with great respect and attention from the state. From a Ukraine that respects itself, values its people, and defends what is its own: its right to be Ukrainian. When no one, ever, will dictate how we should live, how we should speak, whom we should love, whom we should be grateful to, or which heroes we should honor. From the address on the occasion of Constitution Day of Ukraine. (2/5)

‼️ZELENSKYY: FREYA is our Ukrainian anti-ballistic project, similar to the Patriot but cheaper. We will present it in France over the next few days. If our European partners support us, we will be able to protect Ukraine’s skies with our own capabilities. “We have a few questions from you, dear journalists, about our FREYA project. Yes, FREYA is the working name. This is our Ukrainian anti-ballistic system. I would call it European, but still, yes, under our leadership. This project is our anti-ballistic system, which should be similar to the Patriot for intercepting ballistic targets, but more mass-produced and cheaper. At least, this is the task I have given to our manufacturers. This is the European model. Our first meeting on this topic will be in France, and it will be soon. We will definitely announce this publicly. Our task was to gather leaders, companies, the NSA, and everyone together to present the joint European anti-ballistic project, named FREYA, to the countries that can help Ukraine implement it quickly. We could do this ourselves, but that would take years—a really long time. Now, though, we can do it super fast thanks to this kind of anti-ballistic coalition. In the next few days, we'll get together and present the plan to the leaders. If the leaders, their production capacities, and their companies support FREYA, then FREYA will come to life really soon. To be honest, this is goal number one. This is anti-ballistic, and FREYA can really help Ukraine, first of all. In that case, we would be able to close Ukraine’s skies with our own capabilities. Importantly, we will share our idea—the FREYA project—with all our partners, especially the Europeans, who have helped Ukraine during this war. I think this is a really winning idea. God willing, our partners will support us. God willing, our manufacturers will succeed in this” - Ukrainian President in an audio comment to journalists on Thursday, July 9, 2026.

FREDERIKSEN: Anti-ballistic is one of the most important tools for protecting Ukrainian society. Zelenskyy proposed that we form coalition on anti-ballistic. I totally agree with that. It's necessary for Ukraine and for the rest of Europe. Denmark has been one of the biggest donors to Ukraine since the beginning of this war. Even though we have just had elections in Denmark and I am currently trying to form new government, I can tell you that almost everyone in Denmark still agrees that our support for Ukraine must continue. I am quite proud that, even though many years have passed and we see growing division on this issue in other European countries, Danish people continue to stand together in solidarity with Ukraine. Anti-ballistic missile systems are one of the areas where we must now work even more closely with Ukraine. We already have Ukrainian production in Denmark based on Danish model. I also think that Ukraine’s drone and counter-drone technology must be included in Europe’s future defence strategy.

We are working with all our partners on air defense for Ukraine – this is the first priority. Anti-ballistic capabilities are now in short supply globally because of the war with Iran, but we must look for solutions. We are trying to accelerate work in Europe on producing our own anti-ballistic capabilities on the continent in sufficient quantities. We will also continue engaging with the United States regarding its ability to support Ukraine. The PURL program is working, and we are grateful for that. Europe is helping us financially. But strong leadership from the United States in expanding anti-ballistic production is also urgently needed.

President Zelenskyy: "The Freyja system is one of Ukraine's most ambitious projects." Speaking at the Conference of Ukrainian Ambassadors in Kyiv, President Zelenskyy said that one of the key advantages of the Freyja project is that it will be tested under real combat conditions. "Ukraine is capable of manufacturing the interceptor missile and the launcher. That is a fact. The decisive element is cooperation with European countries and partner companies that possess the radar systems, sensors, and other technologies required for an effective anti-ballistic defense system," he said. The Freyja project remains open to new participants. The anti-ballistic coalition currently includes 10 countries: Ukraine, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.

Ukraine needs around 2,000 anti-ballistic missiles for the Patriot system per year - European Commissioner for Defence and Space Andrius Kubilius. During the first 5 days of the Iran war, American troops and the Gulf country troops used around 800 Patriot missiles, nearly half of what Ukraine needs in a year. "We need to boost production of anti-ballistic missiles in Europe. And we need to look into the development of new systems. It will take time. I cannot promise you miracles will happen tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. But we understand the problem. We have some instruments which we can use," Andrius Kubilius said. Ukraine discussed the possibility of developing new anti-ballistic systems with European countries.

For the first time, Ukraine is moving closer to the possibility of producing missiles for Patriot systems and could become the third country in history to secure such an agreement and such a privilege. I thank the President of the United States for this political decision, which is already historic and will help save thousands of lives in Ukraine. It is crucial that our two sides and our teams succeed in seeing this through, and that Patriot missiles bearing the words “Made in Ukraine” become a reality as soon as possible. This is the reality that will bring security and the triumph of life in Ukraine closer – in which our people, our children, our cities and squares, and all this beauty you see around you now will finally see peaceful days and nights.

Ukraine believes that every democratic nation in Europe deserves to be a full member of the EU. And we are working as actively as possible to achieve this. Please, do not forget that Ukraine merits it because it has paid more than any other European country for its right to be free, independent, and European. This right is not only for Ukraine. It is also the right of other nations to be independent from Russia. The future of Europe – free, united and in peace – is being decided in our defense. That shows how unique our situation is. I’m grateful to everyone who recognizes this and who takes the necessary steps to show that Europe truly values and supports it. The most important such step could be a fast-track path for Ukraine to join the EU. From an address at the EU Council meeting. (1/3)

Please, do not forget that Ukraine merits it because it has paid more than any other European country for its right to be free, independent, and European. This right is not only for Ukraine. It is also the right of other nations to be independent from Russia. The future of Europe – free, united and in peace – is being decided in our defense. That shows how unique our situation is. I’m grateful to everyone who recognizes this and who takes the necessary steps to show that Europe truly values and supports it. The most important such step could be a fast-track path for Ukraine to join the EU. From an address at the EU Council meeting. (1/3)

Finnish President Stubb: Russia has been waging its war of aggression against Ukraine for almost four years. Its actions are illegal and immoral. We are closer to peace than ever during the war, but at the same time we cannot be sure whether Russia is ready for peace. Peace is most often a compromise, and we must prepare for the fact that all parts of a peace agreement will likely not meet our sense of justice. However, we will do everything we can to ensure that Ukraine’s independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity are preserved. Ukraine is part of a free and democratic Europe now and in the future. We will continue to support Ukraine, we will not tire, and together with our allies we will ensure that Russia will never again attack its neighbor.

It is important now to continue conveying to all political leaders that air defense for Ukraine is the number one priority. It is important to continue working together on the resilience of Ukrainian communities – and therefore on the experience of resilience that will be useful to communities in your countries. It is enormously helpful for Ukraine to feel that we are not alone in our defense. People in your countries, as well as here in Ukraine, must continue to feel that evil will not prevail. And we will remain very grateful to you for every joint project, every strong decision, every step that helps our defense and the protection of our cities and villages from Russian strikes, and for your participation in Ukraine’s reconstruction. The fate of our freedom and yours is being decided here, in Ukraine, in this war – in which system prevails here: our shared European system, or Moscow’s. From the speech at the 4th International Summit of Cities and Regions. (3/3)
