Zelensky demands acceleration of infrastructure recovery after Russian strikes

President expresses dissatisfaction with work pace

Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the pace of restoring damaged infrastructure following Russian attacks is too slow. In addition, the head of state noted that inaccurate information about the actual state of affairs had been received from several cities.

The president made these comments following a video conference.

Action plan to accelerate recovery

«Темпи відновлювальних робіт надто повільні, і, на жаль, із кількох міст надходила недостовірна інформація з місць. Визначили, як це виправити. Міністерство енергетики разом із Міністерством цифрової трансформації та Міністерством розвитку громад і територій мають підготувати додаткові інструменти взаємодії з містами та громадами, щоб відновлення відбувалося швидше» (The pace of restoration works is too slow, and, unfortunately, inaccurate information from the sites had been received from several cities. We have determined how to fix this. The Ministry of Energy, together with the Ministry of Digital Transformation and the Ministry of Communities and Territories Development, must prepare additional tools for interaction with cities and communities so that recovery takes place faster), Zelensky said.

Protection of the energy system

During the meeting, the Minister of Energy also briefed the president on measures aimed at protecting transformers and other equipment of the energy system.
