00:00:00,120 –> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: President Volodimir Zelenski has ordered the new Prime Minister of Ukraine,

2
00:00:04,679 –> 00:00:10,080
Yulia’s Spearidencoter, involved law enforcement agencies, including the Anti corruption Police,

3
00:00:10,119 –> 00:00:14,080
in the mass audits of Ukraine’s state owned companies. Zelenski,

4
00:00:14,119 –> 00:00:17,039
who gave the order this week while in one on

5
00:00:17,039 –> 00:00:20,679
one meeting with the female prime minister, said the law

6
00:00:20,800 –> 00:00:24,760
enforcement agencies of Ukraine must take immediate action based on

7
00:00:24,879 –> 00:00:28,199
the outcome or results of the audits being initiated by

8
00:00:28,320 –> 00:00:32,880
Yulias Sphereidenko, the current Prime Minister of Ukraine, who assumed

9
00:00:32,960 –> 00:00:37,520
office on July seventeen, twenty twenty five, after being confirmed

10
00:00:37,560 –> 00:00:43,320
by the Vakovnerada, meaning Ukraine’s parliament, following President Volodimir zelenski

11
00:00:43,439 –> 00:00:47,439
nomination of Spearidenko as part of a major government reshuffle,

12
00:00:47,799 –> 00:00:51,920
replacing the previous Prime Minister Dennis schmil who became the

13
00:00:51,960 –> 00:00:55,840
new Minister of Defense and Spearidenko previously served as the

14
00:00:55,880 –> 00:01:00,679
first Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economic Development and Trade.

15
00:01:00,960 –> 00:01:03,799
The new position made her the second woman in Ukraine’s

16
00:01:03,920 –> 00:01:07,920
history to hold the position of prime Minister. Meanwhile, during

17
00:01:07,959 –> 00:01:14,519
the week, Zelenski also announced that the Nordic countries Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway,

18
00:01:14,959 –> 00:01:19,000
along with other Baltic friendly countries of Ukraine, have decided

19
00:01:19,000 –> 00:01:22,159
to commit an additional five hundred million dollars to the

20
00:01:22,200 –> 00:01:27,400
prioritized Ukraine Requirements List PERL Initiative and NATO led initiative

21
00:01:27,439 –> 00:01:31,519
to expedite the supply of critically needed US manufactured weapons

22
00:01:31,519 –> 00:01:34,680
to the country, which Zelensky said will be of a

23
00:01:34,680 –> 00:01:38,480
substantial help. In a number of statements during the week,

24
00:01:38,840 –> 00:01:42,040
Zelensky said, I had a meeting with the Prime Minister

25
00:01:42,120 –> 00:01:46,480
of Ukraine. First and foremost, we focused on the situation

26
00:01:46,640 –> 00:01:49,840
with recovery efforts in the regions after the Russian strikes.

27
00:01:50,680 –> 00:01:54,000
Repair crews are working almost around the clock wherever needed,

28
00:01:54,319 –> 00:01:58,319
and the necessary resources have been deployed. We are increasing

29
00:01:58,400 –> 00:02:01,480
our reserve of equipment and work with partners on this

30
00:02:01,599 –> 00:02:05,480
issue is constantly ongoing. Ulius, sphere Ide and Co. Also

31
00:02:05,640 –> 00:02:09,599
reported on the implementation of support programs for frontline and

32
00:02:09,639 –> 00:02:14,919
border communities. We are ensuring the necessary funding. Starting tomorrow,

33
00:02:15,240 –> 00:02:18,560
a new winter support program for our people will be launched.

34
00:02:19,000 –> 00:02:23,520
Government officials will present all the details publicly. Last year,

35
00:02:23,919 –> 00:02:27,840
more than fourteen million Ukrainians benefited from winter support and

36
00:02:27,960 –> 00:02:31,840
we expect no smaller scale this winter. The Prime Minister

37
00:02:31,919 –> 00:02:35,599
reported on the launch of audit processes in state owned companies.

38
00:02:36,400 –> 00:02:39,599
We agreed that the audits must be conducted promptly and

39
00:02:39,719 –> 00:02:42,759
all results must be forwarded to law enforcement and anti

40
00:02:42,800 –> 00:02:48,159
corruption agencies for appropriate action. Personnel decisions will follow based

41
00:02:48,199 –> 00:02:52,199
on the findings. I also instructed that Ukraine’s key partners

42
00:02:52,240 –> 00:02:55,879
be promptly informed about the audited outcomes and related decisions.

43
00:02:56,680 –> 00:03:00,400
Transparency in state owned companies and the elimination of any

44
00:03:00,439 –> 00:03:05,080
schemes must be guaranteed. We also discussed personnel changes in

45
00:03:05,120 –> 00:03:09,000
the government. The Prime Minister of Ukraine will propose candidates

46
00:03:09,000 –> 00:03:12,879
for the posts of Minister of Energy and Minister of Justice.

47
00:03:13,000 –> 00:03:18,560
Last night, Patriots performed well, successfully intercepting Russian ballistic missiles.

48
00:03:19,319 –> 00:03:23,960
Yet we still need considerably more forces, systems and compatible

49
00:03:24,000 –> 00:03:31,680
missiles to protect lives. This week, the Nordic countries Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway,

50
00:03:32,080 –> 00:03:35,520
along with our Baltic friends, decided to commit an additional

51
00:03:35,639 –> 00:03:38,960
five hundred million dollars to the Pearl initiative, which will

52
00:03:39,000 –> 00:03:42,800
be a substantial help. We are also working on deliveries

53
00:03:42,800 –> 00:03:46,680
of other advanced air defense systems and strengthening our aviation.

54
00:03:47,280 –> 00:03:50,120
A major deal with France’s in preparation and will be

55
00:03:50,159 –> 00:03:54,319
finalized soon, a historic agreement. We are setting up a

56
00:03:54,360 –> 00:03:57,960
deal with Greece as well on energy to maximize options

57
00:03:57,960 –> 00:04:01,719
for gas supplies to Ukraine for this winter and strategically

58
00:04:01,800 –> 00:04:06,800
for the long term. Agreements with various European countries from

59
00:04:06,840 –> 00:04:10,879
Norway to Greece will ensure our state’s gas supply guarantees.

60
00:04:11,680 –> 00:04:14,560
I thank all partners who are helping. I held a

61
00:04:14,639 –> 00:04:18,480
video conference with the heads of all Ukraine’s diplomatic missions.

62
00:04:19,240 –> 00:04:22,000
I am grateful to our diplomats for their efforts and

63
00:04:22,040 –> 00:04:26,439
for representing Ukraine’s interests with dignity around the world. We

64
00:04:26,519 –> 00:04:29,319
discuss the main priorities of their work for the near

65
00:04:29,399 –> 00:04:32,600
future and for the coming year. It is crucial to

66
00:04:32,639 –> 00:04:37,319
continue strengthening our air defense. Ukraine needs air defense systems

67
00:04:37,319 –> 00:04:41,040
and missiles. For them, we must expand the Pearl Initiative

68
00:04:41,439 –> 00:04:45,319
through which we receive weapons for our defense, intensify efforts

69
00:04:45,360 –> 00:04:49,199
to involve countries that have not yet joined, and increased contributions.

70
00:04:50,000 –> 00:04:53,920
The development of the safe instrument is also important. Other

71
00:04:54,000 –> 00:04:57,839
topics included the return of Ukrainian children abducted by Russia

72
00:04:57,839 –> 00:05:01,639
and the protection of human rights in temper rarely occupied territories.

73
00:05:02,439 –> 00:05:05,720
We also discuss the next steps in diplomatic work on

74
00:05:05,920 –> 00:05:11,600
UN resolutions supporting Ukraine. Ukraine needs support, and today it

75
00:05:11,680 –> 00:05:15,399
is especially important that every diplomat works to strengthen the state,

76
00:05:15,879 –> 00:05:20,360
ensure its protection and enhance our positions. I presented the

77
00:05:20,519 –> 00:05:23,279
orders of the Golden Star and other state awards to

78
00:05:23,319 –> 00:05:27,160
the service members of Ukraine’s security and defense forces and

79
00:05:27,279 –> 00:05:30,240
handed the distinctions to the families of the fallen heroes

80
00:05:30,240 –> 00:05:34,879
who were awarded posthumously. We honor Ukraine’s warriors. We thank

81
00:05:35,040 –> 00:05:38,600
Ukrainian families for giving us such warriors. We are doing

82
00:05:38,680 –> 00:05:42,560
everything to make Ukraine stronger every day. This is exactly

83
00:05:42,600 –> 00:05:46,920
what is needed. For every Russian strike, there is our response,

84
00:05:47,240 –> 00:05:50,560
and it will become even more tangible for each of

85
00:05:50,600 –> 00:05:54,279
our fallen heroes. We will take revenge and we will

86
00:05:54,319 –> 00:05:58,040
force Russia into peace. Without any doubt. The day will

87
00:05:58,040 –> 00:06:00,839
come when this war ends and win. Can we guarantee

88
00:06:00,839 –> 00:06:05,240
real security for all Ukrainian children and for all our generations.

89
00:06:05,720 –> 00:06:09,319
We must guarantee Ukraine and life without war. Thank you

90
00:06:09,360 –> 00:06:12,319
to everyone who is bringing this day closer, and we

91
00:06:12,399 –> 00:06:15,319
will always honor the memory of all our people, all

92
00:06:15,360 –> 00:06:18,199
our heroes of different times who gave their lives so

93
00:06:18,240 –> 00:06:25,079
that Ukraine could live on. Lady bringin Uquingie in a
