HOPE TO GET HIM BACK IN JUST A
MOMENT.
BUT FOR NOW, WE WANT TO SHOW YOU
THE SECOND PART OF GRIFF’S
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH
UKRAINIANS PRESIDENT VOLODYMYR
ZELENKSYY, WATCH.
GRIFF: THE U.S. JUST ASSUMED THE
PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED NATIONS
COUNCIL BUT YET THE COUNCIL HAS
FAILED TO DO ANYTHING TO STOP
THIS WAR, ANYTHING SIGNIFICANT.
IS THERE TIME TO CHANGE WITH THE
SECURITY COUNCIL?
>> I’M OPEN TO SAYING ABOUT THE
ORGANIZATION ESPECIALLY ON SUCH
HIGH LEVEL THAT IT DOESN’T WORK
AND ESPECIALLY THE SECURITY
COUNCIL THAT’S SUPPOSED TO DO
ONE SPECIFIC THING, IT’S
RESPONSIBLE FOR SECURITY. SO THE QUESTION IS, WHAT CAN IT
SO THE QUESTION IS, WHAT CAN IT
DO TO PROVIDE SECURITY TO TO OVE
AROUND THE WORLD.
I WANT TO SAY THAT WE DO NOT
FEEL SOME SORT OF POWERFUL STEPS
TO STOP THE AGGRESSION OF
RUSSIA.
JUST LIKE A PERSON DO YOU FEEL
THAT THIS ORGANIZATION CAN STOP
THE WAR, ANY WAR IN THE WORLD?
DO YOU FEEL -- I THINK THE MAIN
THING OF THIS ORGANIZATION THAT
-- PEOPLE HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT
THERE ARE PREVENTIVE DIRECT
THINGS AND STEPS WHICH WILL BE
-- WHICH WILL BE IMPLEMENTED IF
SOMEBODY WANTED TO OCCUPY ANY
TERRITORY.
YES, SO I DON’T FEEL IT.
MAYBE SOMEBODY HAVE THIS
FEELING.
GRIFF: THE EU PROPOSED PHASING
OUT RUSSIAN ENERGY BUT IT’S NOT
TILL THE END OF THE YEAR.
IS THAT ENOUGH?
>> SO FAR I THINK THAT THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS THE
ACCELERATOR OF THE SANCTION
POLICIES AND I THINK THEY DO
MORE THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY.
AND THIS IS THE WAY IT SHOULD BE
BECAUSE THEY ARE THE MOST
POWERFUL COUNTRY RIGHT NOW.
I SEE THE SAME SUPPORT WITH
RESPECT TO SANCTIONS FROM THE
UNITED KINGDOM.
THE EUROPEAN UNION SHOULD BE IN
A UNITED POSITION.
THEY DON’T HAVE IT WITH RESPECT
TO CERTAIN SANCTIONS.
FOR THOSE SANCTIONS, THE
EUROPEAN UNION INTRODUCED, WE
ARE THANKFUL TO THEM, HOWEVER,
THEY HAVE TO BE THANKFUL TO
THEMSELVES BECAUSE ALL OF RUSSIA
AGAINST UKRAINE, IT’S A WAR
AGAINST THE VALUES THAT UKRAINE
DEFENDS AND THESE VALUES ARE THE
VALUES OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
COUNTRIES.
>> WE CREATED THE PLATFORM ON
THIS AND WE PREPARED GOOD
DOCUMENT FOR SANCTIONS.
ONE OF THEM WORK AND ONE DON’T
WORK.
HOW -- WE CAN DO TO INVOLVE MORE
INSTRUMENTS BECAUSE, YOU KNOW,
RUSSIA, WHEN THEY GET SOME
SANCTIONS, YES, THEY HAVE --
THEY FINDING THE WAY HOW TO GO
AROUND, CIRCUMVENT, THAT’S IT.
ALSO WE GIVE THE DOCUMENT TO ALL
PARTNERS.
SO WE ARE NOT WAITING FOR
SOMEBODY BECAUSE WE ARE LOSING
OUR PEOPLE.
ANITA: VAS NATEING.
ANOTHER SNIPPED OF GRIFF’S
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH
VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY.
HE SAT WITH HIM FOR 57 MINUTES
AND ANSWERED ALL OF THE
QUESTIONS AND RATHER THAN LOOKED
TIRED AND WEARY FROM WAR,
APPEARED IN CONTROL, AND ALERT,
CONGRATULATIONS TO GRIFF ON THAT
INTERVIEW.
WE HOPE TO GET HIM BACK IN JUST
A MINUTE.
OKAY, AND WE ARE GOING TO
ACTUALLY BRING HIM IN RIGHT NOW.
WE GOT HIS SIGNAL BACK.
GRIFF, GREAT JOB ON THE SECOND
PART OF THE INTERVIEW.
DID YOU HAVE ANY THOUGHTS ON
WHAT PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY TOLD
YOU RIGHT THERE?
GRIFF: OUR SIGNAL DROPPED THERE
FOR A SECOND.
WE LOST YOU. GREAT RECAP OF THE INTERVIEW,
GREAT RECAP OF THE INTERVIEW,
IT’S JUST TO GET THE INSIGHTS OF
A PRESIDENT AT WAR THINKS AND
OVERWHELMING CHALLENGES HE HAS
GOTTEN BECAUSE MANY PEOPLE WERE
NOT BACKING UKRAINE THE WAY THEY
WERE.
MANY PEOPLE WERE NOT WILLING TO
SEND THE HEAVY WEAPONS THAT HE
NOW HAS, HOWITZERS AND HE WANTS
MORE LONG-RANGE MISSILES BECAUSE HE DOESN’T JUST WANT TO RESIST
HE DOESN’T JUST WANT TO RESIST
AS THEY DID NEAR THE KYIV
CAPITAL AND WANTS TO TYKE WANTS
TO THEM IN EASTERN DONBAS TO
DRIVE RUSSIAN FORCES OUT OF AREA
LIKE KHARKIV, SECOND LARGEST
CITY AND ULTIMATELY TO STOP
RUSSIA FROM BEING ABLE TO TAKE
OVER THE ENTIRE SECTIONS OR
TOWNS OF RUSSIA BUT MARIUPOL
OBVIOUSLY HANGING IN THE
BALANCE, GREAT NEWS THAT WE
BROKE THIS HOUR THAT WOMEN,
CHILDREN AND ELDERLY GOT OUT,
EVACUATED ACCORDING TO THE
UKRAINIAN DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER
BUT YET THE FIGHT FOR THAT CITY
AND WHETHER THE CITY FALLS IN
