Good health to you, fellow Ukrainians!
Today we spent the whole day with our warriors. Combat brigades in Donetsk region. The 109th separate territorial defense brigade, the 110th separate mechanized brigade, the 36th, 37th, 38th brigades of our marines, the 79th airborne assault brigade, the 53rd mechanized brigade, and the 59th motorized infantry brigade. Each of them is powerful. I am proud of all of them. And thank you for your sincerity, guys! Zaporizhzhia direction. The 148th separate artillery brigade, the 82nd airborne assault brigade, the 71st separate hunting brigade - thank you for your service! To all of you!
It is extremely important to support our warriors, to communicate with the brigade and battalion commanders. It is very, very useful to hear from those who are going into battle directly what exactly is lacking, what exactly is enough and what exactly needs to be changed. Everything the warriors talked about will be issues for the participants of the Staff. Especially regarding electronic warfare - we heard everything, guys.
I awarded our military doctors and thanked the staff of the stabilization points - they are great people who save heroes, restore lives and strength. It is a true Ukrainian, Cossack, spirit when the guys recover from their injuries and return to their positions to join their brothers-in-arms. And destroy the occupier again. It is an honor to thank such warriors!
I honored the bravery of our warriors with more than 50 awards. I presented “Gold Stars” to the Heroes of Ukraine - Major Oleh Dmytruk, Air Assault Forces, and Colonel Viktor Sikoza, Marines. Thank you, warriors!
All such awards, all honors are symbols of Ukraine’s success, proof of the strength and indomitability of our people.
Glory to all who fight for Ukraine! To everyone who works for our Ukrainian strength. To everyone in the world who constantly helps us! Who stands with us! And thank you personally for the chevrons, our guys, girls - all the warriors, thank you for the flags today. I will cherish it all.
Glory to Ukraine!
Today we spent the whole day with our warriors; it is very useful to hear from those who are going into battle what exactly is lacking - address by the President of Ukraine

Nonsense about “slow offensive” coming from armchair experts and media, not ministers – Ukraine’s Foreign Minister
Tetiana Lozovenko
Monday, 4 September 2023, 23:59
https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/09/4/7418441/
Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has said that it is armchair experts and the media who talk nonsense about the “slow offensive” by the Ukrainian military, not the ministers of Ukraine’s partner countries.
SOURCE: Kuleba on the 24/7 national newscast
QUOTE:
“When we talk to my counterparts, ministers who are getting official information from their military and their intelligence, in-depth and comprehensive information, no one has any complaints about the progress of the Ukrainian counteroffensive.
No one asks: ‘Why is it so slow?’ On the contrary, everyone is focused on ‘What else can we do to help?’... But then when you look at the media, everyone has only one question: ‘Why is it all so slow?’”
DETAILS:
Kuleba said that he might repeat his earlier statement: that critics of the Ukrainian offensive should “shut up”.
QUOTE:
“Somebody sitting on a sofa or in a warm studio who takes the liberty of criticising the speed of the Ukrainian offensive is criticising an individual soldier who’s been in battle, who has sacrificed himself, lost comrades, advanced a kilometre through a minefield, won a one-on-one battle with a Russian in a trench. He looks at his phone and is told: ‘You’re doing everything so slowly, can you hurry up?’
We must defend the honour, dignity and victory of the Ukrainian soldier. And anyone who comments on the actions of the Ukrainian military disrespectfully will get this reaction from me.
We know what a feat our soldiers perform every day. They deserve respect. Ministers understand this and they don’t talk such nonsense. Yet journalists, commentators and armchair experts tell us how slow the offensive is.”
And some say 50,000 Ukr men killed. Their best offensive quality troops, and good men😟.
It’s sad what Rich Neocons North of Richmond have done.

Ukraine’s Foreign Minister: Path to diplomacy with Russia lies through battlefield
European Pravda
Monday, 4 September 2023, 21:58
https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/09/4/7418432/
Dmytro Kuleba, Ukraine’s Foreign Minister, has said that the war unleashed by Russia cannot be stopped by sitting down at the negotiating table.
SOURCE:
Kuleba during a speech in front of Austrian ambassadors, European Pravda reposts.
DETAILS:
Ukrainian Foreign Minister emphasised that a ceasefire now would only give the Russian Federation a break to resume hostilities later.
QUOTE: “Some wars are not just conflicts or territorial disputes. They are genocidal wars of aggression that cannot be ended by simply bringing belligerent parties to the table for negotiations. Russia’s war on Ukraine is exactly such a case. It needs to be won on the battlefield for Russia to become serious about negotiating peace,” Kuleba said.
The Ukrainian minister added that “fair” should mean the restoration of Ukraine’s territorial integrity, and “stable” should mean that Russia will not be able to launch a new attack on Ukraine and the rest of Europe.
REMINDER:
-Kuleba spoke in front of the Austrian ambassadors via video call.
-At the end of August, Kuleba became the guest of honour at the conference of French ambassadors in Paris.
