Welcome to hardtalk. Thanks very much, stephen. Its a great pleasure to have you in the studio. Let me start by trying to establish a core principle.

We need to withdraw the russian occupiers which will bring an end to the hostilities in ukraine and we must hold those responsible for War Crimes accountable. We need to prevent it and stop the destruction of nature caused by the war. We must not allow a second or Sword Face of this russian invasion and we need to make it clear, the war is over.
