00:04:21,199 –> 00:04:27,480
on the terrorist state for missile strikes, for kab bombs,

63
00:04:27,519 –> 00:04:32,839
for assaults in general. For this entire world, Russia must

64
00:04:32,879 –> 00:04:36,959
be forced to seek peace today. I want to especially

65
00:04:37,000 –> 00:04:41,959
acknowledge our forces who are already holding Russia accountable with

66
00:04:42,079 –> 00:04:45,519
the forces we have and the ones we are constantly strengthening.

67
00:04:46,319 –> 00:04:49,680
Every unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the main

00:04:49,800 –> 00:04:54,160

75
00:05:21,600 –> 00:05:26,480
for Ukraine. We have already showcased higher Anzaia, our new

76
00:05:26,560 –> 00:05:30,600
roquette drone. More of developments and more of our weapons

77
00:05:30,639 –> 00:05:37,040
will follow. Why harder Anitias and neptunes can achieve many objectives.

78
00:05:37,360 –> 00:05:43,360
There are tasks that only ATACMS, stop shadow Scout and

79
00:05:43,519 –> 00:05:49,279
other weapons from our partners can fulfill. Previous day, Zeleski said,

80
00:05:49,680 –> 00:05:52,360
in the two and a half years of full scale war,

81
00:05:52,839 –> 00:05:56,439
Russia has launched about ten thousand missiles of various types

82
00:05:56,480 –> 00:06:00,040
and more than thirty three thousand live bombs at Ukraine.

83
00:06:00,480 –> 00:06:03,920
Stopping attacks on our cities can be achieved by targeting

84
00:06:03,920 –> 00:06:10,160
the carriers of this weaponry Russian aircraft STATIONAR at military airfields. Yesterday,

85
00:06:10,560 –> 00:06:14,160
the first successful combat use of our new weapon, the

86
00:06:14,279 –> 00:06:19,399
Ukrainian long range rocket drone highly inizial, took place. It

87
00:06:19,560 –> 00:06:24,120
was designed domestically to destroy the enemy’s offensive potential. The

88
00:06:24,240 –> 00:06:27,560
number of rocket drones production will grow, just like our

89
00:06:27,639 –> 00:06:31,800

00:06:54,560 –> 00:06:58,160
bring them all back. I am grateful to each unit

96
00:06:58,279 –> 00:07:02,360

97
00:07:02,439 –> 00:07:06,720

their own sovereign states. Ukraine will always remain independent. This

103
00:07:29,240 –> 00:07:33,680
is beyond question. Together we have given a historic answer

104
00:07:33,720 –> 00:07:38,839
through our unity, courage and collective efforts. They answer to

105
00:07:38,879 –> 00:07:44,160
whether Ukraine should exist and whether Ukrainians should exist. When

106
00:07:44,279 –> 00:07:48,759
external aggression passes such a question to a nation, everything

107
00:07:48,839 –> 00:07:53,040
depends on millions of people. Each through their actions, determines

108
00:07:53,079 –> 00:07:56,439
the third of the entire people, and the entire people,

109
00:07:56,839 –> 00:08:02,560
with their collective strength, determines the firt of each individual Ukraine.
