Zelensky Thanks Parliament for Decisions Made at Today's Session

In a video address transmitted through various news agencies, including Ukrinform, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky expressed sincere thanks to parliamentarians for the adoption of important decisions during today's session of the Verkhovna Rada. The head of state emphasized that such actions by the parliament, which continues to function even in the challenging times of a full-scale war, are extremely vital for ensuring the resilience of the country and supporting its citizens.

Zelensky noted that in wartime, the parliament is fulfilling its part of the work, which is critically important for the survival and development of Ukraine. 'This is necessary to continue. We must get through this time - the time of war. And give everything to Ukraine, so that our people can endure,' he stressed, urging lawmakers to continue their work for the benefit of the state.

The president also highlighted that Ukraine's independence will be defended, and the country will inevitably respond to all the challenges it faces. 'We will definitely respond to all challenges. I thank everyone who works for our state, who defends Ukraine,' Zelensky said, expressing gratitude to all those contributing to the fight for independence.

As previously reported, on April 7, 2026, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted a series of decisions that open the possibility for receiving funding from the European Union under the Ukraine Facility program. This funding aims to support the Ukrainian economy and social programs during this challenging period.

Thanks to these decisions, Ukraine will be able to obtain additional resources that will be directed towards infrastructure restoration, support for social initiatives, and strengthening the country's defense capabilities. These steps are crucial for stabilizing the situation in Ukraine and ensuring its further development.

It is important to note that support from international partners, particularly the European Union, is critically important for Ukraine in wartime. It not only helps maintain social stability but also creates conditions for economic recovery after the conflict ends.

In light of these events, Zelensky called on Ukrainians to unite around a common goal - the protection of the country's independence and territorial integrity. He emphasized that only through collective efforts can all the difficulties and challenges facing Ukraine be overcome during this difficult time.

In conclusion, the president urged all citizens to remain united, support one another, and continue working for the benefit of Ukraine, as only together can victory be achieved and a bright future secured for the next generations.
