PRESS RELEASE : After the victory, we must create conditions in Ukraine for both people and businesses to feel safe – President

The press release issued by the President of Ukraine on 23 May 2022.

After winning the war against Russia, Ukraine will become a powerful and safe state that will get rid of corruption and oligarchic influence and will be able to defend its territory and people. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy while participating in the online format in the World Economic Forum in Davos.

Answering the question of the moderator – founder of the World Economic Forum Klaus Schwab about the vision of the future of Ukraine, the Head of State stressed that today, as the leader of a country at war, he thinks more about the present and losses in the war. He added that Ukraine pays dearly for freedom, independence and struggle.

At the same time, the President expressed conviction that our state will definitely win, as the Ukrainian people and army have already shown their strength and courage.

“It will be a strong state with concrete security priorities. We understand that anything can happen at any moment with such a neighbor, and, unfortunately, there can be war. The war may be repeated. I am convinced that we must create conditions so that people and businesses are not afraid to develop in our country,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.

The President stressed that the territory of Ukraine is large, so a solid system of defense must be created.

“Our task is to establish the most advanced air defense system, the most advanced multisystem of security. Our goal is to have a security treaty with other countries that we trust and consider partners. This treaty must be full-fledged, preferably ratified by the parliaments of the strategic partner countries. So that any chances of the aggressor for the future invasion will be eliminated before entering our land,” the Head of State emphasized.

According to the Head of State, the security of both people and business must be guaranteed in Ukraine.

“We do not intend to revive certain corruption steps, corrupt institutions, oligarchic influence. All this will not be the case in Ukraine. And none of this is there now. Exactly such a state – powerful, popular, technological and safe, ready to defend its land and people at any moment,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy summed up.
