00:00Can Ukraine survive without U.S. military support?
00:07Probably it will be very, very difficult. And of course in all the difficult situations
00:16you have a chance, but we will have low chance,
00:20low chance to survive without support of the United States. I think it's very important,
00:26critical. But, I mean, I don't want to think about it. Yes, we have to think about it. I
00:33don't want to think that we will not be strategic partners. I don't want to think about it,
00:38because it will make a pressure on moral, morality of Ukrainians and it will be worse,
00:46worse to think from the very beginning of the war. But we increased our production,
00:51that really we really can count on our level of defending industry, but it's not enough.
00:59Your concern being without U.S. military support, Ukraine would be vulnerable to
01:04another attack by Russia in another few years. Is that your concern?
01:11Yes, I think this can be. This is really what he wants. He wants pause, prepare, trained,
01:19take off some sanctions because of ceasefire and etc.
