00:00One thing I want to stress very clearly, and this has been said very many times here,
00:04it's an obligation for everyone out there who encounters people, imperial people in need,
00:10to save people in such situations.
00:13So, of course, this was task of Operation Sofia, this is task of Operation Irini,
00:17any other operation we have around the world where there are vessels involved
00:21and they see people in high seas or in their zone of operation, if they are authorized,
00:26they are supposed to save them.
00:27And it's not only for EU missions, it's for every single vessel,
00:32because this is not something about the mandate from the EU,
00:34this is something about the international law of seas.
