According to President Zelensky, responsible decisions will be made between September and December, which will directly affect Ukraine as well as the whole of Europe. Therefore, this August, Ukraine needs to prepare carefully so that the above-mentioned special period in allied countries will develop in a favorable direction, in support of Kiev, as in previous political seasons.

“We must prepare for this stage so that every decision is made in the blue and gold colors of Ukraine. This is very important in strengthening Ukraine’s position in global competition,” President Zelensky said.

To achieve positive results, President Zelensky proposed five core orientations: First, the parties need to work towards implementing Ukraine's "peace formula"; Second, the process of bringing Ukraine into the European Union and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization; Third, increasing exchanges with partners in arms supply; Fourth, ensuring security for Kiev; Fifth, supporting the recovery of the post-conflict economy.

Regarding arms aid, President Zelensky said that Ukraine is receiving more weapons than any other country. However, the strength of the Ukrainian army is still not strong enough compared to expectations.

Mr. Zelensky said that this August, training of Ukrainian pilots on how to operate F-16 fighter jets will take place. Currently, Ukraine needs to “work at 100% capacity” with the countries that own F-16s, and the transfer process will take place immediately after the end of the training.

For Kiev, this is an important and challenging task. The transfer and use of F-16s to Ukrainian pilots should take place as soon as possible.

Besides the F-16 fighter jets, President Zelensky said that Ukraine continues to work with allied partners, especially the US, in providing long-range weapons and air defense systems.
