Зустрівся із Прем’єр-міністром Великої Британії Кіром Стармером. Ми в Україні цінуємо всі кроки Великої Британії для підтримки нашого народу та послаблення агресора, зокрема в боротьбі проти російського тіньового флоту. Говорили про це сьогодні з Кіром. Приділили значну увагу оборонній підтримці України, зокрема внескам у програму PURL. Україна готова до наступного раунду переговорів у тристоронньому форматі. Переговорний процес для досягнення справедливого й достойного миру також був серед тем нашого обговорення. Цінуємо позицію Великої Британії щодо продовження тиску на Росію. Це дійсно важливо. Окремо обговорили підтримку українського енергетичного сектору. Я поінформував про ситуацію на полі бою та російські удари по Україні. Важливо, щоб Європа скоординувала зусилля та розробила спільну систему протиповітряної оборони для захисту від загроз з боку Росії.

Our warriors continue to apply sanctions against Russia’s shadow oil fleet – two such vessels were struck in the waters at the entrance to the port of Novorossiysk. These tankers had been actively used to transport oil – not anymore. I am grateful to Chief of the General Staff Andrii Hnatov for leading the operation, to the counterintelligence officers of the Security Service of Ukraine, and to our Navy for consistently delivering effective results. Ukraine’s long-range capabilities will continue to be developed comprehensively – at sea, in the air, and on land. Glory to Ukraine!

A Russian woman is going viral posting anti-Putin rants, today saying that the money they spend on war for a single day could fix the teeth of every pensioner in Russia, and that she doesn't need Ukraine and isn't giving her son's to "Putin's ass" just to come home in a bodybag. The woman then wishes the people of Ukraine "good health".

On this day in 1986, the football team Dynamo Kyiv from the Soviet Ukrainian Republic made a historic achievement in international sports by winning the European Cup in the final game against Atlético Madrid 3:0. The game was held at Stade de Gerland in Lyon, France, while Kyiv, their home city, began mass evacuations of residents due to radioactive contamination after the Chornobyl nuclear disaster. One of the Soviet strikers who scored in that final game, Oleg Blokhin, will later become a member of the Communist Party of independent Ukraine and then the United Social-Democratic Party led by Putin's crony and oligarch Viktor Medvedchuk (arrested and expelled to Russia in 2022). Blokhin's coaching career in various clubs in Greece, Moscow, and his home city, Kyiv, wasn't very successful. But he led Ukraine's national team to the quarterfinals of the 2006 FIFA World Cup and the group stage of UEFA Euro 2012.
