## Transcript

Ruste, it was great to see you in Brussels three weeks ago for the 23rd meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group. Thanks for your close and continuing partnership. Now, Ukraine is in a tough fight and has been ever since the start of Putin's reckless war choice. Kremlin continues to intensify its bombardment of your cities and civilians. But I continue to be impressed by the skill of your forces, and your troops continue to fend off Russia's attacks with grit, ingenuity, and courage. And I am proud that the United States will soon announce more than 2.3 billion dollar in new security assistance for Ukraine.

This package, under Presidential drawdown authority will provide more air defense interceptors, anti tank weapons, and other critical munitions from US inventories. Also enable the United States to procure more Patriot NSAMs, air defense interceptors, which will be provided on an accelerated timeline by the re sequencing of deliveries for some foreign military sales. We look forward to discuss with you how we could continue our partnership and be in future member of NATO. Hopefully, soon, Ukraine will receive its invitation, and but at the moment, we will discuss the issues how to increase our capabilities and plans.

Thank you.
