1
00:00:00,200 –> 00:00:04,919
Speaker 1: Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenski has continued to make phone calls

2
00:00:04,960 –> 00:00:08,320
with world leaders since President Donald Trump of the United

3
00:00:08,359 –> 00:00:12,359
States US announced that President Vladimir Putin of Russia will

4
00:00:12,359 –> 00:00:15,000
meet with him next week Friday in the U S

5
00:00:15,000 –> 00:00:18,719
state of Alaska, and stated, while answering questions from the

6
00:00:18,719 –> 00:00:21,239
White House reporters, that there will be some swapping of

7
00:00:21,399 –> 00:00:25,440
territories to the betterment of both Ukraine and Russia, specifically

8
00:00:25,480 –> 00:00:28,239
saying we will get some back and we will get

9
00:00:28,280 –> 00:00:30,920
some switched. There will be some swapping of territories to

10
00:00:30,960 –> 00:00:34,280
the betterment of both, a statement that immediately and apparently

11
00:00:34,359 –> 00:00:38,479
drew the attention of the Ukrainian President Voladimir Zelenski, who

12
00:00:38,520 –> 00:00:42,159
have issued series of video and written press releases since

13
00:00:42,280 –> 00:00:46,399
President Donald Trump made the announcement, insisting that Ukraine will

14
00:00:46,439 –> 00:00:48,920
not see any of its territory to Russia for the

15
00:00:48,960 –> 00:00:52,200
purpose of peace or to end the war, emphasizing that

16
00:00:52,640 –> 00:00:56,399
it was because President Putin occupied part of ukraine territory

17
00:00:56,479 –> 00:00:59,880
in the past and assembled its true Ukrainian borders were

18
00:01:00,000 –> 00:01:03,960
without preventive punishment, made him to start full scale war

19
00:01:04,079 –> 00:01:07,920
with Ukraine since twenty twenty two, adding that the path

20
00:01:08,000 –> 00:01:11,400
to piece for Ukraine must be determined together with Ukraine.

21
00:01:11,799 –> 00:01:15,159
This is fundamental. It is important that joint approaches and

22
00:01:15,239 –> 00:01:19,719
a shared vision work toward genuine peace, a consolidated position,

23
00:01:20,120 –> 00:01:25,040
cease fire, end of occupation, end of war. According to Trump,

24
00:01:25,359 –> 00:01:29,159
the highly anticipated meeting between myself as President of the

25
00:01:29,280 –> 00:01:33,680
United States of America and President Vladimir Putin of Russia

26
00:01:33,959 –> 00:01:37,760
will take place next Friday, August fifteenth, twenty twenty five,

27
00:01:38,159 –> 00:01:42,000
in the Great State of Alaska. Further details to follow.

28
00:01:42,319 –> 00:01:45,599
Thank you for your attention to this matter. Zulensky, in

29
00:01:45,640 –> 00:01:49,400
a series of press releases on Saturday, said, I have

30
00:01:49,519 –> 00:01:52,959
not heard any partners express doubts about America’s ability to

31
00:01:53,079 –> 00:01:56,599
ensure that the war ends. The President of the United

32
00:01:56,680 –> 00:02:00,920
States has the leavers and the determination. Paine has supported

33
00:02:01,000 –> 00:02:06,280
all of President Trump’s proposals, starting back in February cease fire,

34
00:02:06,719 –> 00:02:10,240
all formats have been supported. What is needed now is

35
00:02:10,280 –> 00:02:13,759
not a pause in the killings, but a real lasting piece,

36
00:02:14,599 –> 00:02:17,719
not a cease fire sometime in the future, in months,

37
00:02:17,960 –> 00:02:22,360
but immediately. President Trump told me so, and I fully

38
00:02:22,400 –> 00:02:25,280
support it. There must be a just end to the war,

39
00:02:25,599 –> 00:02:27,560
and it is Russia that must end the war it

40
00:02:27,639 –> 00:02:31,759
started Ukraine and all partners share the same understanding of

41
00:02:31,800 –> 00:02:34,120
the need for a cease fire, for an end to

42
00:02:34,159 –> 00:02:38,439
the killings. There is only one actor opposing this, Putin.

43
00:02:38,919 –> 00:02:41,639
His only card is the ability to kill, and he

44
00:02:41,719 –> 00:02:44,120
is trying to sell the cessation of killings at the

45
00:02:44,199 –> 00:02:47,919
highest possible price. It is important that this does not

46
00:02:48,039 –> 00:02:51,319
mislead any one. Results are needed at the leader’s level,

47
00:02:51,759 –> 00:02:55,719
dignified results, results that will save lives that the world

48
00:02:55,800 –> 00:02:58,199
will value and for which it will be grateful to

49
00:02:58,240 –> 00:03:02,879
the leader who delivers them. Every One clearly sees Putin’s tactics.

50
00:03:03,280 –> 00:03:06,520
He fears sanctions and is doing everything to bail on them.

51
00:03:06,919 –> 00:03:09,639
He wants to exchange appaus in the war, in the

52
00:03:09,719 –> 00:03:13,120
killings for the legalization of the occupation of our land.

53
00:03:13,599 –> 00:03:16,599
He wants to get territorial spoils. For the second time,

54
00:03:17,360 –> 00:03:20,280
Putin was allowed to take Crimea and this led to

55
00:03:20,319 –> 00:03:24,680
the occupation in Daraniesk and Luhnsk regions. He received no

56
00:03:24,800 –> 00:03:28,719
preventive punishment when he amassed a contingent on our borders.

57
00:03:29,120 –> 00:03:31,800
This led to the full scale war and the occupation

58
00:03:31,960 –> 00:03:35,639
of even more parts of Ukraine. Now Putin wants to

59
00:03:35,639 –> 00:03:39,879
be forgiven for seizing the south of our curson region Zaporigia,

60
00:03:40,080 –> 00:03:44,240
the entire territory of Luhansk and Daniesk regions and Crimea.

61
00:03:44,680 –> 00:03:47,919
We will not allow this second attempt to partition Ukraine,

62
00:03:48,280 –> 00:03:51,280
knowing Russia, where there is a second, there will be

63
00:03:51,319 –> 00:03:55,039
a third. That is why we stand firm on clear

64
00:03:55,159 –> 00:03:58,840
Ukrainian positions. We must end the war with a dignified

65
00:03:58,879 –> 00:04:03,960
peace based on a clear and reliable security architecture. Our

66
00:04:04,039 –> 00:04:06,759
partners are ready to help us with this. We have

67
00:04:07,080 –> 00:04:09,439
just had a report from our team in the UK

68
00:04:09,960 –> 00:04:14,360
from Andrew Yermick. There were talks among the security representatives

69
00:04:14,360 –> 00:04:18,720
of the US and Europe, Ukraine, the US Vice President, Vance,

70
00:04:19,040 –> 00:04:26,040
the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Finland, Poland. The meeting was constructive.

71
00:04:26,319 –> 00:04:29,240
The path to peace for Ukraine must be determined together

72
00:04:29,319 –> 00:04:33,720
with Ukraine. This is fundamental. It is important that joint

73
00:04:33,720 –> 00:04:37,920
approaches and a shared vision work toward genuine peace, a

74
00:04:38,040 –> 00:04:42,959
consolidated position, cease fire, end of occupation, end of war.

75
00:04:43,360 –> 00:04:46,360
Ukraine is ready for real decisions that can bring peace.

76
00:04:46,800 –> 00:04:50,040
Any decisions that are against us, any decisions that are

77
00:04:50,040 –> 00:04:53,439
without Ukraine, are at the same time decisions against peace,

78
00:04:54,240 –> 00:04:58,199
they will not achieve anything. These are stillborn decisions. They

79
00:04:58,199 –> 00:05:02,319
are unworkable decisions, and we all need real and genuine peace,

80
00:05:02,839 –> 00:05:07,160
peace that people will respect. President Trump announced preparations for

81
00:05:07,240 –> 00:05:10,639
his meeting with Putin in Alaska, very far away from

82
00:05:10,680 –> 00:05:14,480
this war which is raging on our land against our people,

83
00:05:14,759 –> 00:05:18,279
and which anyway can’t be ended without us without Ukraine.

84
00:05:18,839 –> 00:05:21,720
Putin did not believe in our people and therefore made

85
00:05:21,720 –> 00:05:25,399
the hopeless decision to try to take Ukraine. This was

86
00:05:25,439 –> 00:05:29,680
his main mistake, not taking Ukrainians into account. I believe

87
00:05:29,800 –> 00:05:34,600
in our people. Ukrainians are strong. Ukrainians defend what’s theirs.

88
00:05:34,920 –> 00:05:38,079
Many in the world have sided with Ukraine during the war.

89
00:05:38,519 –> 00:05:40,879
Even those who are with Russia know that Russia is

90
00:05:40,920 –> 00:05:44,839
doing evil. Of course, we will not reward Russia for

91
00:05:44,920 –> 00:05:49,600
what it has perpetrated. The Ukrainian people deserve peace, but

92
00:05:49,759 –> 00:05:53,680
all partners must understand what a dignified peace is. This

93
00:05:53,759 –> 00:05:56,519
war must be brought to an end, and Russia must

94
00:05:56,680 –> 00:05:59,879
end it. Russia started it and is dragging it out,

95
00:06:00,160 –> 00:06:04,079
ignoring all deadlines, and that is the problem, not something else.

96
00:06:04,879 –> 00:06:08,360
The answer to the Ukrainian territorial question already is in

97
00:06:08,399 –> 00:06:12,480
the constitution of Ukraine. No one will deviate from this

98
00:06:12,959 –> 00:06:16,399
and no one will be able to. Ukrainians will not

99
00:06:16,519 –> 00:06:19,360
give their land to the occupier. We are ready to

100
00:06:19,439 –> 00:06:23,040
work together with President Trump, together with all our partners,

101
00:06:23,079 –> 00:06:27,680
for realand most importantly lasting peace, a piece that will

102
00:06:27,680 –> 00:06:31,399
not collapse because of Moscow’s desires. I thank all our

103
00:06:31,439 –> 00:06:35,160
people for being together. Ukraine is I thank all our

104
00:06:35,240 –> 00:06:40,079
soldiers for preserving our independence. Stand firm. This is our land.

105
00:06:40,399 –> 00:06:44,079
We are Ukraine. Glory to Ukraine. There is already a

106
00:06:44,120 –> 00:06:47,360
lot of support and it comes in the new circumstances.

107
00:06:47,680 –> 00:06:50,279
With a deadline now set for Russia to cease fire.

108
00:06:51,079 –> 00:06:53,879
So far we see that the Russians are ignoring it,

109
00:06:54,240 –> 00:06:58,120
at least for now. Today has once again brought killings

110
00:06:58,120 –> 00:07:01,319
and Russian shelling. Over a hun hundred strike drones were

111
00:07:01,399 –> 00:07:05,120
launched overnight against Ukraine, followed during the day by air

112
00:07:05,160 –> 00:07:08,560
bomb strikes, intense assaults on the front line, and yet

113
00:07:08,560 –> 00:07:12,120
more air raid alerts in our cities and communities. No

114
00:07:12,360 –> 00:07:15,040
orders to stop have been given to the Russian Army.

115
00:07:15,439 –> 00:07:18,399
We are speaking with our partners to ensure real steps

116
00:07:18,399 –> 00:07:22,959
are taken. We are in constant communication with the American side,

117
00:07:23,120 –> 00:07:26,639
and our partners, for their part, are also engaging with

118
00:07:26,720 –> 00:07:30,600
the United States. All are united in the understanding that

119
00:07:30,639 –> 00:07:33,199
there is a chance to achieve at least a cease fire,

120
00:07:33,519 –> 00:07:36,319
and that everything depends on the right pressure on Russia.

121
00:07:37,000 –> 00:07:41,000
I had a good conversation with President of Finland Alexander Staff.

122
00:07:41,319 –> 00:07:44,879
We are coordinating positions for the most productive joint work

123
00:07:44,920 –> 00:07:49,000
with America. It is important that America has the determination

124
00:07:49,160 –> 00:07:51,800
and the ability to end the war, and we welcome

125
00:07:51,839 –> 00:07:55,639
President Trump’s desire to stop the killings. To respond to

126
00:07:55,720 –> 00:08:00,000
Russia’s intention to prolong the war and seize territorial spoils,

127
00:07:59,800 –> 00:08:03,519
we must act wisely and in coordination. Thank you for

128
00:08:03,639 –> 00:08:08,279
your support, Alexander. Ukraine and Finland have the longest borders

129
00:08:08,720 –> 00:08:11,720
with Russia in Europe, and our people know very well

130
00:08:11,759 –> 00:08:15,959
what threats this brings. We agreed to continue working together

131
00:08:16,040 –> 00:08:19,759
for our common security. I spoke with uk Prime Minister

132
00:08:19,879 –> 00:08:23,600
kir Starmer. I am grateful for the support. We share

133
00:08:23,600 –> 00:08:26,040
the same view on the need for a truly lasting

134
00:08:26,120 –> 00:08:28,680
piece for Ukraine and on the danger of Russia’s plan

135
00:08:28,800 –> 00:08:33,080
to reduce everything to discussing the impossible. Clear steps are

136
00:08:33,120 –> 00:08:36,360
needed as well as maximum co ordination between US and

137
00:08:36,399 –> 00:08:40,639
our partners. We value the determination of the United Kingdom,

138
00:08:40,960 –> 00:08:44,240
the United States, and all our partners to end the war.

139
00:08:45,039 –> 00:08:48,639
We are actively working for constructive diplomacy and to ensure

140
00:08:48,639 –> 00:08:52,799
that the decisions can work. We agreed on further contacts.

141
00:08:53,240 –> 00:08:56,960
I spoke with Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sanchez. I

142
00:08:57,039 –> 00:09:00,000
am grateful for Spain’s support for Ukraine and our Pea.

143
00:09:00,679 –> 00:09:04,759
I informed about the diplomatic situation and our contacts with partners,

144
00:09:05,120 –> 00:09:07,600
and shared our vision of what the next steps should be.

145
00:09:08,320 –> 00:09:10,919
The main thing now is to ensure that Russia does

146
00:09:10,919 –> 00:09:15,240
not once again impose its unrealistic conditions on anyone. It

147
00:09:15,320 –> 00:09:18,240
is important that Pedro and I share the same view.

148
00:09:18,720 –> 00:09:22,840
Europe’s voice must be taken into account. We are coordinating

149
00:09:22,919 –> 00:09:26,159
our common European position. We are ready to move as

150
00:09:26,200 –> 00:09:30,279
quickly and constructively as possible toward a just piece. We

151
00:09:30,440 –> 00:09:35,840
also discussed Ukraine’s path toward European integration. Ukraine has fulfilled

152
00:09:35,879 –> 00:09:38,679
all its obligations and is fully ready to open the

153
00:09:38,720 –> 00:09:43,240
first negotiating cluster. We discussed possible options and will look

154
00:09:43,279 –> 00:09:47,200
for solutions. We agreed to stay in touch. Thank you.

155
00:09:47,600 –> 00:09:51,200
I spoke with President of France Emmanuel Macron. I am

156
00:09:51,240 –> 00:09:55,080
grateful for the support. We exchanged views on the diplomatic

157
00:09:55,159 –> 00:09:59,480
situation Ukraine, France and all our partners are ready to

158
00:09:59,559 –> 00:10:02,720
work as productively as possible for the sake of real peace.

159
00:10:03,519 –> 00:10:06,480
It is truly important that the Russians do not succeed

160
00:10:06,559 –> 00:10:10,240
in deceiving anyone again. We all need a genuine end

161
00:10:10,279 –> 00:10:13,759
to the war and reliable security foundations for Ukraine and

162
00:10:13,840 –> 00:10:17,759
other European nations. I spoke with the Prime Minister of

163
00:10:17,799 –> 00:10:22,720
Denmark Metafredericksen. I am grateful for the support. We discuss

164
00:10:22,799 –> 00:10:27,080
the diplomatic situation and communication with partners both hours and

165
00:10:27,159 –> 00:10:33,240
metas these days diplomatic activity is extremely high. However, we

166
00:10:33,320 –> 00:10:37,000
see no changes in Russia’s position. The Russians still refuse

167
00:10:37,120 –> 00:10:40,039
to stop the killings, still invest in the war, and

168
00:10:40,159 –> 00:10:44,639
still push the idea of exchanging Ukrainian territory for Ukrainian

169
00:10:44,759 –> 00:10:49,320
territory with consequences that guarantee nothing accept more favorable positions

170
00:10:49,360 –> 00:10:52,799
