On July 21, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will hold a conference of Ukrainian ambassadors. The conference is titled From the strength of diplomacy to the diplomacy of strength, according to Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha.
Sybiha says that dozens of Ukrainian ambassadors to foreign countries joined him on July 20 to visit the Zaporizhzhia region, which is located along the front line. The ambassadors visited the positions directly, as well as the Orikhiv district and the city of Orikhiv.
According to Sybiha, the diplomats were shown trenches, an underground school, and houses in Orikhiv that had been destroyed by Russian strikes. The diplomats had to see how people in Ukraine live under constant Russian attacks.
"The bravery of the people of Zaporizhzhia deserves our highest respect. Despite constant Russian terror, the region lives, grows, and maintains its resilient spirit," Sybiha wrote.
Also, according to the Ukrainian Foreign Minister, on July 21, President Zelenskyy will open a conference of ambassadors in Ukraine entitled From the power of diplomacy to the diplomacy of power. The visit to the Zaporizhzhia region will give foreign diplomats an understanding of the impetus to achieve greater results in the cause of peace in Ukraine.
"We look forward to continuing our fruitful work to benefit our country. I am grateful to Ivan Fedorov, the Zaporizhzhia regional administration head, for this visit and his dedicated work," adds Sybiha.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian diplomats received instructions from Zelenskyy on three key areas of work with partners. These include arms supplies, the reconstruction of Ukraine, and sanctions against Russia.
In particular, Zelenskyy instructed Sybiha and the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry to synchronize sanctions against the Kremlin with Ukraine's partners in all parts of the world.
