Well, Mr. President, it's good to be by your side again. Really is. I saw you earlier in this conference, but welcome again. And look, you know, the last few months, the stories about your demise are not true; that you're doing well, and you're holding back. And the fact is that over the past few months, the battle for Ukraine has shifted. But Ukraine stopped Russia for Kharkiv, number one, and you should be complimented for that. And number two, you've wanted Russia's advances, you've imposed significant costs on Russia. And you made it clear: Russia will not prevail in Ukraine, will not prevail in Ukraine. Ukraine will prevail. And I want you to know, we're going to be with you every step of the way. Two days ago, I announced historic donation of air defense equipment to Ukraine. Ukraine. Today, I'm proud to announce new security assistance package for Ukraine. This will be the eighth package I've authorized since we've signed a national security bill. As Secretary of Defense, we can talk about what the details of all that are. I signed it yesterday or last night, I guess. And we're working with our NATO allies to ensure Ukraine is flying F-16s this summer. And we show the world that we stand with Ukraine now and in the future. So, Mr. President, thank you again for being here. We've got a lot of work to do together. And I yield the floor to you. Thank you so much. Mr. President, thank you very much for invitation to summit. And thank you for such strong news about new security package. I'm grateful to you, your team, your administration, of course, Congress, both parties, both chambers, and all Americans for their vital and your strong support of Ukraine, Ukrainian people. Together, we are saving lives of our people. You mentioned about Kharkiv. Thanks to your support and thanks to our soldiers. Really, it was tough work, but they did it. And together, we are preserving Ukraine's independence and freedom. And these are historic actions that will protect the world from similar wars. And I especially want to thank today President Biden for his support and personal statement following the Russian strike on the Children's Hospital in Kyiv. Yes, this is our largest Children's Hospital. And it was directly hit by Russian missile. That is why we greatly appreciate your decisions to strengthen our air defense, the five new Patriots and other dozens of other systems. And and be happy to see that we have and I want to also to speak today how we can continue support. And I also want to discuss with President how we can quickly and decisively stop Russian terror with this big problem for us. It's guided bombs. And of course, we need some quick steps, some to lift all limitations for our Ukrainian soldiers. And of course, we are thankful for that you helped us to save our energy. It's tough period for people without energy. But anyway, we are thankful to you and partners. And of course, we will discuss achieving a just end to the war. We must end this war justly and for peace to return as soon as possible. We need a second peace summit this year. Thank you for participation. And we are counting heavily on your support in this; God bless America. We will stay with you, period. Thank you, press. Thank you.
