we will definitely answer for everything to the aggressor , putin, russia, his circle, and these non-humans, thank you for the steadfastness of the soldiers, yours, the people of ukraine, and we really, really hope that you will be with us until the very end, until the victory of ukraine . full stop to ukraine's victory, we can start, but please, left bank, let's go sonya, please, just two hours ago andriy yermak said verbatim in this audience that at the second summit there could be such a situation, at the second peace summit there could be such a situation, that we will invite together the representatives of the russian federation, where they will be this plan is presented in case someone there at that time will represent the country of the aggressor, wants... to really stop this

war and return to a just peace. you yourself said in an interview with fox news that putin cannot be trusted. moreover, it is clear that he is unlikely to give up his maniacal ideas of conquering all of ukraine. so what are the objective factors of pressure on the russians and their inclination to negotiate on our terms? thank you for all these questions. first of all, with regard to... and the summit, we believe that it is it is very correct to strengthen on the battlefield, and it depends on us, our production from our partners, and it is also very correct to strengthen diplomatically, we do not want any formats of change, any formulas of peace, countries to be imposed on us , even our partners, all those countries that are not here today and are not at war, i do not wish them. war, but it is very

important that the initiative can be and come only from ukraine, it was started in indonesia at the g20, g19, to be honest, and that is why today we have come to the moment of the first summit, the first summit is an initiation one, it will be held today, so far it is, i hope it will be in the spring, we must not lose this diplomatic initiative. and it will be in switzerland, the second summit, we would like it to be, maybe not on the european continent, on another, i think also in the coming weeks, months, this information will definitely appear, at the first summit there will be development plan, and then technically the countries will deal with each. from the crises that

this war brought, they will prepare a document, as it was on the example of the grain initiative, we they said that we do not trust putin and they were right, we agreed on our specific steps, and this initiative worked with the turkish language and with un secretary general gutierrez, and then this plan of ours was transferred to the russian side, and it did not matter who from that side approved, does not approve, negotiate, but... does not accept this initiative, and we showed that let's work in this format, if it does not work, we will still go to the implementation of the corridor on our own, and it happened, the initiative worked for a year, i am grateful to our partners, after that russia, this confirms, in principle, what you say, they cannot be trusted, they left the initiative, but we were already ready for an independent grain corridor, and what is very important, very important, we

did not let our partners down, we showed that we are for the law , we are for a just peace, we went to this format of the grain initiative, and for their part, the partners saw that russia could not be trusted, but russia could not do anything about it, the grain went, this is a positive thing, and it was an important result in time of war, the same with the summit, when the countries prepare the relevant document, the document will be... fair, it does not mean that russia will accept this document, no one can guarantee who will be there then, from their side, we do not know, but in any case we say that this document will be the same as the formats with the grain initiative, initiatives, this document will be presented by the negotiators, in one or another format, so far there is no such format, it will be presented to the russian side and... we

will be ready for the second summit, for the corresponding diplomatic steps regarding a just peace and an end to war, this our initiative and we want as many countries as possible to be with us. world, we must move forward, i really do not want that after the elections in various countries of the world, and this is the year of various elections, i do not want an initiative to appear from a non-democratic country, or from very democratic countries, his own initiative, which would not coincide with the interests of the country that is at war today. thank you abc please. abc. tell me, please, will ukraine lose in this war? it seems that weapons are only enough

to maintain this state, not to win. maybe it's time to talk to putin. especially since there will be elections in the usa in november. can you talk to a deaf person, or can you talk to a person who kills his opponents? there is no translation, you don’t have it, everything is fine, i think you are interested in more than just questions, please take an earpiece, i will wait, yes, there is a translation, good, and therefore

the question is in the legal and political plane, we will offer a platform on which it can accept that he...lost this war and that it was a mistake, a big mistake, which is small for him, but for us, it is a tragedy, and for it is a tragedy for the entire democratic world , it is unconditional, and therefore there must be justice in this matter, whether ukraine will lose in this war, i am sure not, the most difficult was 24-2 years ago, and at least we do not have this alternative, not to win. there is no way to lose, because ukraine will lose , will lose, we will not be there, we will not exist, and therefore such an ending of the struggle for our lives is definitely not suitable for us, will ukraine lose, and will it be very, very

difficult for us, and whether there will be a large number of victims depends on you, on partners, on of the western world, if we are all... with one weapon or another, we will not lose this war, we will win, because all putin's steps back, daily steps back will definitely have a big impact on his society, and then he will think already about internal security, that 's all, but if you look at the messages that putin gives today, he operates with facts, figures, and everything speaks of plans for the 30th. here is the answer to what he is going to do, he sees himself until the age of 30, and we would like to finish with him earlier. next, please, radio freedom, this is the front row, stevan. thank you,

mr. president. this moment, codes can look at what happened in ukraine, taking into account what has already happened, to what extent, how do you now define victory, has your definition of victory changed over these two years, what has changed, what has not changed, in general, have you changed you are a way of communicating with the people of ukraine about what lies ahead, the war is changing the country. makes people calmer, someone tired, generally tougher. i am not an exception, i am a citizen of ukraine, and as our society changes, so do i. my communication does not depend on the tone

i fantasized, but on the fact that inside me and inside society, i am an integral part of the citizens of ukraine, and... that's why i communicate, i try to tell people as much as possible what is happening , there are details that i cannot share as much as possible, but in what i am saying... at this moment, when i am speaking, i am telling people the truth and it is important to me, expectations, and this is a fact, there is no alternative in ukraine and ukrainians than to win security for herself, and she should guarantor, it must be guaranteed, and i do not remove our responsibility here with us, internal security is very important. army, as long as we are not in nato, as well as security guarantees from our partners, guarantees that any

return of russian aggression on the territory of ukraine, as long as we are not in the alliance, they must protect us. probably so. next, please, unian. in the center at the end. thank you, mr. president, you have repeatedly appealed to our allies about the need to immediately provide us with long-range means of defeating russian targets, in particular such missiles as atakems, including in recent days you had very intensive contacts with world leaders, including the president of the united states. joe biden, the phone conversation was an online meeting of the big seven leaders, on and maybe

you still have some contacts that we don't know about, in your opinion, your request that before the urgent need for telecobian means of expression was heard, and did our partners that this is very urgently needed right now, and not put off for three months or four months, that is the question, thank you. of atakams 300 km, you understand what we need it for, so here i would not like to talk about the details, but we understand what it is for, and russia understands what we will do with it, and indeed we have been working on long-range weapons for a long time, i would answered you in general if possible. and i am positive about

the recent response of our partners regarding this weapon? my question is related to the previous one, but relative to france. it is the largest military member of the eu, and yet we are only 15 in terms of the amount of military aid to the country. you you know, president macron said that he should and could do more for ukraine. do you agree with this? we recently had a conversation with emanuel, had a meeting, and had a meeting with him, and i think we have a very good, very good one. the security guarantee agreement from the french side, i am happy with that and

i think there will be some more details that he and i have agreed on, but i would like them to come from him, you know that we are expecting the arrival of emmanuel macron in ukraine, and he will be here, i understand when he will be, because of security, i am not saying a specific date, it will be soon, and it will be soon, and i think that there will be more... which details regarding support for ukraine are important, new. speaking of artillery, emanuel knows that we are grateful to caesar's artillery, it works well, we made an artillery coalition, and there are several dozen of us there, i just don't remember how much it is open information, several dozen relevant systems we expect. from the french side and from our partners, several dozen, this is very important, it will powerfully

strengthen our country, and there are some other things, but we will talk about them later, when he arrives, further, whatever please, cnn kaitlen, here is the first row, thank you, mr. president, i am glad to be there in kyiv, it has already been two years since the start of the war, but for the first time since the invasions. the usa is seriously questioning ukraine. tell me, do you still have hope for the congress? there is hope for the congress, and i am sure that it will be positive, but otherwise, i do not understand at all what kind of world you and i are starting to live in, it is definitely a different one, and that is why we count on the support of the congress, they know that we needed their support for a month, i met with senators,

with both parties and all signals. in different formats, the president, the government and the opposition know, they know that we need this decision within a month, this is our request, regarding air defense, they also know our request, we need more, i just, well, if we talk about it today, we will talk about our vision of it, in any. however, this money remains for the most part in the united states and in those companies that are the manufacturers of the corresponding weapons that we need, this should also not be forgotten, these are not toys for congress and for the war in ukraine, and we have some steps, these are security guarantees, there are very specifics,

there have been very serious specifics regarding money, we did not just insist on these specifics. because we see challenges in the united states, but i count on the fact that the united states will remain the leader of democracy in the world. next please obo from ua. right in the corner. good evening. lesya hasych, edition b. mr. president, the polish-ukrainian issue. we all know that the relevant structures are dealing with this, but we also understand that there is a lot here politicians and on the one hand, they say that they support ukraine to the end, and on the other hand, that there, they approve of the wild protests of their farmers, such as today. do you have a dialogue with your polish colleague in this regard, or are there positive developments? ukraine should be supported now, not until the end. this is important, because the end can be fast, if in different ways,

so support ukraine. we have working relations with tusk. and the prime minister had these meetings, and there was a recent meeting with duda, and i'm not just telling you that either all surnames, now you will be able to compose an answer for yourself, and also sursula fonder, since april of last year i have been saying that this is a political issue, at first, you know, even our ukrainian society and some media criticized me for such rhetoric, i was absolutely . direct here, and today the european commission confirms it, i said that any election in poland, any team that comes, will not change this vector, this is a political vector, it is very clear today that there is an internal struggle in poland, but i wanted would to say that we are grateful to the society, and i

am to the polish society, which has been with the ukrainians from the very beginning, and this is a fact, and i would really not like the poles to ... , i don't believe it, the people there are smart, they will figure it out, just like our people figured out what's the matter, to use ukraine as pressure on european institutions, it's just unfair, that's what i'm talking about, i think that the prem yers will find the appropriate steps, i as the president... i'm just saying openly that for it is very important for us to preserve the union with poland, and if steps are not found, then we will protect our business. thank you. please, this is skynews, second row center. thank you john

sparks, sky news, we've just returned from the frontline. returned to kupyansk, then i would like to ask whether ukraine will lose territory, and whether you are ready to continue to give up or lose territory while you continue to receive additional weapons and equipment for the armed forces of ukraine. thanks, okay, pressure. the russian is strong enough in the direction of kharkiv, in kupyansk, where you were in that region, it was strong, and i will tell you frankly, the intensity. the use of appropriate artillery by the russians was somewhere 1:12 and it was until the end of last year and the beginning

of this year, now we have 1 to 6.6, that is , about 1/7, that is, this is a reduction of their superiority in numbers, but nevertheless the advantage is significant. and we need to get to those moments when we had appropriate operations, counter-offensive actions, where we went one to one and a half, one to three, and then we will be able to push back the russians until there is no such quantity, we will be able to stand, or we will lose, well, lose 100 m, 50 m, unfortunately, all this is important for us. but the military decides strategically, strategically it is more important not to lose people, because in all small towns or villages, where there are 10-20

houses left and there are no destroyed people, or there are some isolated people who do not want to leave and save themselves, or not god grant a child, but most of their children do not have there, and there are hostilities there, if we take avdiivka and what you are talking about and... donbas, for example, in avdiivka, to be honest, yes, russia raised it in the information field , the question is why, because it is necessary to show some advantage , but what kind of advantage is this, when the battles around avdiivka have not even been fought since the beginning of a full-scale war, but since 2014, from the first occupations of ours, promk , there were also many journalists present here, there were, and and etc., so from... it is very simple: to put pressure on the partners regarding those packages that were discussed, agreed and signed, and

it seems to me that then the russians have a chance, well at least will be less accurate, but as soon as we have each other in one direction or another, relative the number of weapons, then we will definitely show the result, as it was already... more than once , further, please ictv, tell me, please, according to the law on mobilization, there are more than a thousand, there seem to be 300 amendments, when you do you expect that it will be adopted and what result do you expect to have from it, this is the first, second, in terms of american aid, if we do not receive it within a month, do we have any internal reserves, well, apart from european money, and what do we... .first, when we talk about american aid, we must understand that this is not a question

of financial reserve, that it is a weapon, i sincerely emphasize that for the most part all this money is a weapon, and therefore you understand what the result will be, we will simply be weakened on the battlefield, and here i can't tell you what will happen, and here i don't have... a reserve, we have weapons and what we have, we will look for other opportunities, aa buy weapons, take additional money, additional loans, put pressure on partners , somewhere they are asking very much, and i emphasize this issue to you once again, it is a question of specific packages of weapons, filling of concrete defense of our state, 1.5 billion yes, but you will not buy it, you will not buy it without

the united states, here is the answer, you can strengthen the air defense of ukraine without the united states, no , there are no corresponding systems in the world, that which in the world is an alternative in low quantity, very little. so when we say, is there an alternative to helping the united states, is there a place to get the money? money, we will find, we will not find so many weapons. as for the law, in the question itself, everyone in your question itself, everyone difficulties, you already said, 300 amendments, well , let the deputies work and then answer to the country. what happens next? thank you. thank you, please, questions from italy, corira dlsr, lorenzo. mr. president. good evening.

coredelicer. mr. president, if the united states stops supplying arms and ammunition, can europe replace it? we spoke yesterday with ms. miloni, that is, can europe somehow replace, replace this aid from the united states. i heard about europe, you spoke with prime minister maloney yesterday, can europe to replace this aid that comes from the united states, in part i said now that there are some types of weapons that depend on the decision of the united states of america, and whether, for example, germany can give us its

air defense systems with which they ... defend their state , i don’t know, i’m not sure that german society will be ready to give us all air defense, well, it just won’t be ready, i think so, regarding long-range weapons, there are other issues, well, we will work, if with different countries, you know, such countries not much, but not that much less about italy, well you are in italy, are you ready for us? set up , that's why it's important to talk to you, mr. president , because, as you know, there are many pro-putins in italy, that's why it's important to talk about italy and europe, that's why we ask if you can wage this war without american help, on our side, i am very...

and that is why you have to squeeze them somehow, squeeze them out, mostly in other ways, in any case, you have a lot of weapons, but not all, not everything, not everything depends on italy, we also say about the big seven countries, about... actually other

countries that can provide a lot, maybe not kompleksiot, but there is sumpti, there is hox, there is a lot of things in different countries, but whether it will be enough, i can't tell you that, but it would be good, mr. president, if we are already talking about italy, europe, i... and here the europeans are trying to increase the amount of ammunition production and the question is also in ammunition, what do you think, do you feel that europe is changing, yes it is .

seeing changes, they are much better, especially in the last few months, i relation to this war, to ukraine in this war. i think that at least they understand how dangerous it is for them, that putin is not only our enemy, he is the enemy of all of europe, i think that they understood, well at least they understood that he will continue this war. and that is why the leaders of european countries began to increase the production of ammunition, in particular ammunition of 155 mm caliber, many other items as well, will this be enough? i expressed my opinion in one interview, i don't remember what interview it was, but i frankly said that i i think the issue is... not in ammunition.
