Today is a big day for our region and for Europe as a whole. The Baltic states—good friends of Ukraine—have officially disconnected from Russia’s power grid. Their energy systems are now fully synchronized with the continental European network. I congratulate to our friends—Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia—on this achievement. It’s important that Poland is helping, once again proving that cooperation between all of us means independence for each of us. @GitanasNauseda @edgarsrinkevics @AlarKaris @AndrzejDuda Ukraine already did this back in 2022, and now the Baltic states have finally freed themselves from this dependence. Moscow can no longer use energy as a weapon against them. This also means Europe is now even more united. More cooperation is needed with America—LNG gas, oil. More efforts are needed with partners in regions neighboring the EU to import the necessary energy—the Caucasus, the Middle East, North Africa. The less Europe depends on Russia, the sooner we can guarantee real security for everyone. I am grateful to the European Union for supporting our region and our shared security.

Strong security always has many elements, and each one matters. Ukraine possesses some of the largest strategic resource reserves in Europe, and protecting Ukraine also means protecting these resources. Resources that can either strengthen our state and our partners—or Russia and its allies. Uranium, titanium and manganese ores, rare earth elements, lithium, natural gas, and dozens of other resources that shape geopolitics. I spoke with Reuters journalists about Ukraine’s readiness to cooperate with the United States for the sake of security. The full interview will be released tomorrow, February 8.
