What does Ukraine want? Peace, yes. At any cost? No. We want the end of the war, not the end of Ukraine. Are we tired? Extremely. Does that mean we are ready to surrender? Those who think so, are deeply mistaken. And clearly, over all these years, they still have not understood who Ukrainians are. A people who have held on through 1,407 days of a full-scale war.
Just take in that number. That is longer than the Nazi occupation of many of our cities during World War II. 1,407 days of an unconquered Ukraine. A country that, in effect, spends every night in shelters. Every night in struggle. Often, without electricity; often without sleep, holding positions for many, many days. Yet always, without panic, without chaos, without division but in unity so that we can have peace.
Do we want the war to end? Absolutely. Why has it not happened yet? The answer is right next door to our country. Can Russia end the war? Yes. Does it want to? No. Can the world force it to do so? Yes, and only that way will it work. Why does the world not do this to the full extent? Let us break this down, step by step, honestly as it truly is. Our people know this better than anyone. Of course, more than anything else. Right now, we want peace. But unlike New Year’s snow, it will not simply fall from the sky like a miracle.
But we believe in peace; we fight for it, and we work for it. And we will continue to do so. Because in 2026, we truly want that the skies be calm and the land be peaceful; that warmth and light fill our homes and not 170, but the full 220 days as it should be, that all our people return home from the front, from captivity, from occupation; that we stand, that Ukraine stands.
Happy New Year, dear people. Slava Ukraini.
