Following the appointment of a new government, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that the reshaping of Ukraine's security sector will continue on 18 July, followed by an overhaul of the country's diplomatic corps starting next Monday.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that demobilisation will occur only after Ukraine defeats the Russians, emphasising the need for a high-quality rotation of the military in the meantime.

The White House confirmed that Trump and Zelenskyy discussed whether Ukraine would be able to strike Moscow and St. Petersburg with U.S.-supplied weapons.

Zelenskyy has emphasized the importance of expanding production to counter Russia's invasion and strike deeper into Russian territory.

Donald Trump has privately encouraged Ukraine to step up deep strikes on Russian territory, even asking Volodymyr Zelenskyy whether he could strike Moscow if the US provided long-range weapons, according to people briefed on the discussions.

U.S. President Donald Trump repeatedly said during his campaign he would be able to end the war between Russia and Ukraine “in 24 hours” upon taking office.

President Trump told reporters that Ukraine should not target Moscow following a report that he advised Ukraine to ramp up its attacks.
