World's attention to Ukraine must be upheld - Zelensky

That's according to President Volodymyr Zelensky, who spoke in an evening address to the nation, Ukrinform reports.

"I wish you good health, dear Ukrainians,

A brief report for the day.

I held a meeting of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief's Staff. The matter, in fact, is only one – the situation in all our fronts.

The front in Avdiyivka... I'm especially grateful to the warriors on this front! Resilience there is a strength for all of Ukraine right now. Maryinka, other directions in Donetsk region. Lyman. Kupiansk. Thank you, warriors!

Separately – the south. Zaporizhzhia region, Kherson and the region, Odesa...

Of course, our state border – east, north. Strengthening the border.

Supply of ammunition to the frontline, including our own supply, Ukrainian production. I thank all enterprises, all workers who contribute to Ukraine's results – a constant increase in our arms and ammunition production.

I held a meeting regarding the international events and negotiations being prepared by our state for the near future. Tomorrow, in particular, the Crimea Platform, its parliamentary dimension. The world's attention to Ukraine, to defending freedom and international law, must be upheld – we will do everything for this.

I spoke with the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia – a meaningful conversation. Our bilateral relations and relations with the Gulf. The Peace Formula – I invited Saudi Arabia to participate in a meeting in Malta that is being prepared, and I thanked for the significant role in bringing the Global Peace Summit closer.

Of course, we discussed the situation in the Middle East. The main thing is to save as many civilian lives as possible and prevent both a humanitarian catastrophe and the escalation of a wider war.

One more thing.

I want to particularly honor our National Guard warriors today. Those whose courage deserves to be known by all Ukrainians.
