President: Opening of Boryspil airport will mean that Ukraine is winning

He said this at his year-end press conference, speaking about the technical overhaul of aircraft at Boryspil airport, Ukrinform reports.

“Boryspil is like the Black Sea. This is a very serious operation, I'll tell you frankly. The opening of Boryspil is a victory for Ukrainian air defense. This will show that Ukraine is winning. It is very serious," the President said.

According to him, the resumption of flights is also a powerful economic step, and Ukraine is discussing this issue with its partners. "I will be frank: we are asking this question to our colleagues, and we know what exactly we need," Zelensky added.

As reported, on December 19, at around 09:00, a Boeing 777-300 took off from Boryspil International Airport on a technical flight. This is the fourth successful departure from Boryspil Airport since the war began. There were no passengers or cargo on the plane.
