00:00And I just want to ask you a question on some domestic issues that are happening in Ukraine.

00:05Ukraine's government is facing its biggest domestic test at the moment as prosecutors

00:11accuse ministers and officials of corruption in the country. Does this weaken President

00:17Vladimir Zelensky's position at all as he goes on the international stage to continue to ask

00:25for help for Ukraine? Absolutely. I think this is one of the worst things that could have happened.

00:31And it is on the people who allow this to happen. I think President needs to be looking in his close

00:37surroundings and clean it up. And our anti-corruption organs and prosecution needs to work flawlessly

00:45right now. So these questions are removed. Look, we know that we are not perfect. And we have been

00:52saying that there were many questions to some of the ministers' work. But right now, the real grown-up

01:00and democratic thing that we can do in this situation is to make sure that the people who

01:07are accused are prosecuted openly and according to the rules and that there is no way that that

01:14can be repeated moving forward.
