00:00No, we do need to make progress, and what President Trump wants, what Ukraine wants, what Europeans want, is the same thing,

00:09which is a just and lasting peace in Ukraine after the nearly four-year aggression from Putin and Russia.

00:17So we're working towards that aim. Obviously, there are a number of issues still to be resolved,

00:23but I'm very clear in my mind that we support Ukraine in this fight, not of their making.

00:32They've paid a very heavy price. If there is to be a ceasefire, and I hope there is, and Ukrainians want that above all else,

00:38it must be just and it must be lasting. We've had ceasefires in the past, which Putin has then breached because they weren't robust enough,

00:46and we're determined to make sure that any peace is a lasting peace.
