confirm to confirm the church. a expression about that there are no small people and no small countries. let's we know that you grain has proven that this slogan during the last 6 days. let's be left with any of those people who are perishing right now for the european union before the future of our european house. let's understand that they cannot be these in europe without ukraine. federal, there will not be integra europe without re brain glory to ukraine. thank you for your attention. thank you very much. hi, representative. i now give the floor to the president of the european commission are still on the line for a statement. madam

president of the european parliament, mister president of the council, high representative. mister president of the ukraine. dear valadez mirror, mister speaker of the ukrainian parliament. my honorable members swore has returned to europe almost 30 years after the balkan wars and over half a century after severe troops marched into prague and budapest, civil defense sirens again went off in the heart of his european capital. thousands of people fleeing from bumps, camped and underground stations, holding hands crying silently trying to cheer each other up. cows lined up towards ukrainian western borders and when many of them ran out of fuel, people picked up their children and their backpacks and marched for tens of

kilometers towards our union. they sought refuge inside our borders because their country wasn't safe any longer. because inside ukraine grew, some death count has begun. men, women, children are dying once again because a foreign leader president put in decided that their country ukraine has no right to exist. and we will never, ever let that happen and never, ever accept that members, this is the moment of truth for europe. and let me quote, the editorial of one ukrainian newspaper, the keefe, independent, published just hours before the invasion began. and i quote, this is not just about ukraine, it's a clash of 2 worlds, 2 polar set of values, and of quote, they are so right. this is

a clash between the rule of law and the rule of the gun between democracies and autocracies. between a rules based order and the world of naked aggression. how we respond today to what russia is doing, will determine the future of the international system. the destiny of ukraine is at stake, but our own fate also lies in the balance. we must show the power that lies in our democracies. we must show the power of people that shows their independence pass freely and democratically. this is our show of force. and today, a union of almost half a 1000000000 people has mobilized for ukraine. the people of europe are demonstrating in front of russian embassies all across our union. many of them

have opened their homes to ukrainian fleeing from proteins bums. and let me thank specially poland, romania, slovakia, and hungary for welcoming these women, men and children. europe will be there for them not only in the 1st days, but also in the weeks and months to come. that must be our promise altogether. and this is why we are proposing to activate the temporary protection mechanism to provide them with a secure status and access to schools medical care and work. they deserve it. we need to do that now and we know this is only the beginning, more ukrainians will need our protection solidarity. we are and we will be there

for them. our union is showing a unity of purpose that makes the proud at the speed of light. the european union has adopted 3 ways of heavy sanctions against russia financial system. it's high tech industries and it's corrupt elite. and this is the largest sanctions package in our unions history. we do not take these measures slightly, but we feel we had to act these sanctions. we'll take a heavy toll on the russian economy, and on the kremlin, we are disconnecting key russian banks from the swift network. we also banned the transaction of russia central bank, the single most important financial institution in russia, and this paralyzes billions of foreign reserves. turning off the tap on russia's and proteins war, we have to end this financing office war and

2nd, we target important sectors of the russian economy. were making it impossible for russia to upgrade its oil refineries to repair and modernize it's air fleet, and to access many important technologies, it needs to build a prosperous future. we've closed our skies to russian air clock aircraft, including the private jets of oligarchs and make no mistake. we will freeze their other assets as well. be it. yes. our fancy cars or luxury prosperity will freeze that all together. and 30 in another unprecedented step. we're suspending the licenses of the kremlin propaganda machine, the state and russia today. and sputnik and all as their and all of their

subsidiaries will no longer be able to spread their lies on to justify proteins war and to divide our union. and these unprecedented actions by the european union and our partners in response of an unprecedented aggression by russia. each one of these steps has been closely coordinated with our partner and allies. the united states, the united kingdom cannot and norway, but also for example, japan, south korea and australia. all of these days, you see that more than 30 countries, representing well over half of the world's economy have also announced sanctions and export controls on russia. and if porting was seeking to divide the european union to weaken nato and to break the international community, he has achieved exactly the opposite. we are more of united than ever,

and we will stand up in this war. that is for clear that we will overcome and we will prevail. we are united and we stayed united hon members. i am well aware that these sanctions will come at a cost far economy to i know this and i want to speak honestly to the people of europe. we have endured 2 years of pandemic, and we all wished that we could focus on our economic and social recovery. but i believe the people of europe understand very well that we must stand up against this cruel aggression. yes, protecting our liberty comes at a price. but this is

a defining moment, and this is the cost we are willing to pay. because freedom is priceless, honorable members, this is our principal freedom. it's friday or investments today will make us more independent to morrow. and i'm thinking 1st and foremost about our energy security, we simply cannot release so much on a supplier that explicitly threatens us. and this is why we reached out to other global suppliers and they responded. norway is stepping up in january, we had the record supply of energy gas. we're building new l n g terminals and working on interconnect us. but in the long run, it is our switch to renewables and hydrogen that will make us surely independent. we have to accelerate the green transition because every kilowatt hour of

electricity, europe generates from solar, wind, hydro power or biomass reduces our dependency on ration gas and other energy sources. this is a strategic investment. i'm my own or more members. this isn't strategic investment because on top less dependency on russian gas and other fuel fossil fuel sources also means less money for the kremlin war chest. this is also a truth. we are resolute. you can rise up to the challenge. the same is true on defense, european security and defense has evolved more in the last 6 days than in the last 2 decades. most member states have promised deliveries of military equipment to ukraine. germany announced that it will meet the 2 percent goal of nato. as soon as possible and our union for the 1st time ever,

is using the european budget to purchase and deliver military equipment to country that is under attack. 500000000 years for the european piece facility to support ukraine's defense. as a 1st batch, we will now also match this by at least 500000000 euro from the e you budget to deal with the humanitarian consequences of this tragic war, both in the country and for the refugees. honorable members, this is a watershed moment for our union. we cannot take our security and the protection of people for granted. we have to stand up for it. we have to invest in it. we have to carry our fair share of the responsibility. and this crisis is changing europe, but russia has also reached across, wrote,

the actions of the kremlin are severely damaging the long term interests of russia and its people. more and more russians understand this as well. they are marching for peace and freedom. and how does the kremlin respond to this by arresting thousands of them. but ultimately, the longing for peace and fries and freedom can not be silenced. there is another russia, besides proteins, tanks and we extend our hand of friendship to these other russia. be a sure they have our support. hon members. in these days, independent ukraine is facing at darkest hour. at the same time, the ukrainian people are holding up the torch of freedom for all of us. they

are showing immense courage. they are defending their lives. but they are also fighting for universal values, and they are willing to dive for them. president zalinski and the ukrainian people are a true inspiration. and when we last spoke, he told me again about his people's dream to join our union. today the european union and ukraine are already closer than ever before. there's still a long pass ahead. we have to end this war and we should talk about the next steps . but i am sure no body in this ham is psycho can doubt that the people that stands up so bravely for our european values belongs in our european family. had therefore hon. members,

i say lonely europe and long live a free and independent ukraine. miss vomas' lover, you crying yet? ah ah ah thu
