Thank you.
First of all, let me thank you for the unprecedented financial support the Canadian government has already provided to Ukraine, which helps many Ukrainians have access to social support in the country in the war.
Since we are fighting for our sovereignty on the battlefield every day, the much-needed military support in Ukraine is the urgent issue. This was discussed with you when you invited me for the first time, and we have discussed it with you at many other meetings. It's really crucially important to not only announce this military support but also to get it on the battlefield. Each day we are losing the best Ukrainians to protect our country. We would much welcome that in three weeks, when we have the independence day of Ukraine, this announced military support would be a great present to Ukrainian soldiers on our independence day.
