Matviichuk highlighted that Ukraine is confronting not just Russia but an entire authoritarian bloc, including Iran, China, North Korea, and Syria. "Ukraine is not a goal. Ukraine is a tool how to break international order," she stated, underscoring that the conflict represents a broader challenge to global democratic values.

When asked about the future of US support, particularly in light of Donald Trump's re-election, she expressed uncertainty but affirmed Ukraine's resolve: "We don't know what will be the policy of the next president's administration, but what we know for sure is that Ukrainians will continue our fight for freedom. We have no other choice."

On Wednesday, Russia attacked Kyiv, Ukraine’s capital, with both missiles and drones for the first time in 73 days, forcing some residents to take shelter in the city’s metro stations deep underground. No one was killed, but the attack suggests Russia intends to intensify the psychological war it’s waging on Ukrainian civilians.
