american heart that does not be three freedom and support us slavoj, green now we will do what you're going to take two questions from america reporters in two question issue of two american reporters and our question needs from two ukrainian support reporters. but first first-person, i'm to call and his colleague long and associated press thanks mr. president about two weeks ago, you changed course to allow ukraine to fire us weapons in russia. given the reported successes, would you consider further expanding the parameters on us weapons into russia, even despite your concerns about escalation. >> and on the news from home, you're going through something that so many american families go through the intersection of addiction and the criminal justice system. >> but you're not like most families was your son able to get a fair trial? do you believe the justice department operated independently of politics and for president, let me answer your question. >> you asked him with regard to the first question it is clear that the near abroad meeting just across the line of the border with russia and ukraine and it makes a lot of sense for ukraine to be able to take out or combat what is coming across that border in terms of long, long-range weapons? >> longer-range weapons into the interior of russia. we have not changed our position on that sort with regard to the question regarding a family. i'm extremely proud of my son, hunter he is overcoming addiction. he is he's one of the brightest, most decent man i know and i am satisfied that i'm not going to do anything. i said i said i'd buy by the jury decision i'll do that. and i will not pardon him president zelenskyy a number of liters here in italy including president biden, are facing upcoming election challenges. how will the security agreement signed tonight? and the other promises of support continue if they are not an office and what's your contingency plan if they don't? >> yeah. thank you for this question. may is first and foremost, i'd like to thank the people of the nation first and foremost to the united states, to the countries in europe and other, on other continents who have supported us since the very beginning. >> all of the beginning of this, absolutely. unjust war fresh against the people of ukraine that that is a day they'd been killing people that holmes and territory. all that is very important. it is part of life. but first and foremost, we're speaking about people and lives of people yeah, understand. and this war was unjust since the very beginning. the wall of this evil his, name. is putin. the war against the people of ukraine. and he has killed so many people to say that it is not heme, it, there was a military man who did it the last one is just an instrument of his and he's playing this instrument and therefore it is important for us that since the very beginning, we were supported by people by a nations because they understood that we share common values. we simply want to live and the people understood they imagined what will happen if such evil attacks them. and therefore, we were supported by people in the united. thank president biden and other leaders whose since the very beginning of the invasion, putin's invasion started to support us. they, based on their values, they, they worth based on the voice therapy blend, it is impossible without people and i'm sure that this nation chooses leaders and presidents and it seems to me that no matter whom the nation chooses first and, foremost it seems to me that everything depends on the unity within this or that state. and if the people are with us, any leader will be with us in this struggle for freedom yeah, yeah. yeah, it was fisher. >> thanks so much. >> doubled last count till again, i'll enter yes, please enter here in a ivanova tv channel, or both leaders so today during the g7 meeting, their discussion focused on developing ukraine's air defense system based on the most advanced western complexes and also on an hazing long-range capabilities so my question is, can you provide any details on the initiative and about the readiness of our allies to take part in it. thank you i'd be happy to respond to that. >> we have acquired commitment from five countries so far for patriot batteries and other deir defense systems as well as we've let it be known for those countries that are expected from us air defense systems in the future, that they're going to have to wait. everything we have is going to go to ukraine so their needs are met. and then that will make good on the commitments we made to other countries. >> i think president biden already answer to your question really? he knows and all other partners denote it urgently. >> we need seven bits are at systems yes. to save our citizens, not all of them. it's a busy but urgently seven. and we discussed the possibility of having fireball of them is through, but the partners work on it. it doesn't mean that tomorrow we will have these five systems, but we see in the closest future good result for ukraine, you have some relatively quickly american reporter, josh wind grow, bloomberg thank you, mr. president, i have a question from mr. president zelenskyy shortly on the announcements. but if you don't mind, i'd like to ask you about your discussions on the situation in gaza. here at the summit you were asked just a short time ago about it. after the skydiving demonstration, can you give us your assessment of hamas response and do you believe that they are trying to work towards the deal or is this response working against to deal and what is your message to allies, including those here? the g7, about what more, if anything, the us can do to drive towards a piece of green. >> thank you wish you guys a little play by the rules. >> it was a little bit i'm here to talk about a critical situation ukraine. you're asking me another subject. i'm i'll be happy to answer in detail later. but the bottom line is that we've made an agreement. i've laid out on an approach that has been endorsed by the un security council, by the g7, by the israelis and the biggest hang-up so far is hamas refusing to sign on even though they have submitted something similar, whether it hadn't out comes to fruition, remains to be seen. we're going to continue to push. i don't have a final answer for you to president biden's point, a question about today discussions. >> president zelenskyy, the $50 billion today, you've had the supplemental course from the us congress recently. can you give us an assessment of this? situation on the battlefield right now? and what has been given now, how long will this get you in terms of either stopping the russian advance are making headway on this, and how long will it last you? if indeed future leaders are current leaders are unable to reach consensus on further aid packages and president biden, i'd welcome your assessment of the situation currently on the battlefield, but what difference the supplemental is made as well. so thank you ya go so much in separate tinea. thank you for your question. indeed, we we were expecting the fundamental package of this support was in the congress. so of the united states of america. and truly it was a long pause for our warriors first and foremost, but it is important and we are grateful that in the very end, we have this supplement. and this will for sure strengthen are warriors. yes, this this has given the opportunity to the enemy within this pores to try to occupy kharkiv. >> but that attempt was stopped by our warriors. they were repelled out the enemy was repelled, and we, despite everything disrupted, all their plans and it seems to me that that is the most important thing what this supplement that will arrive gives us it enables us to fully equipped the reserves, those guys, those brigades that already so that they provide for, for the opportunity to rotate our units on the battlefield so that they can have some grass so that the brigades can regenerate so that other brigades and to the battlefield instead of them with equipment. this is what the supplement gives them. so the rays of morale. but also the rays of strength of our brigades. and it seems to me that this is the most important for how long this will this will be enough. look, we without bakish having holding the leinz for eight months and the russians had no successes. and therefore, the question on for how long? it will be enough? no, i think the question has to be for how long the unity will lost the unity in the united states together with the european leaders, how these are those elections will influence this unity. it seems to me that we should look on this exactly this way to preserve unity, to preserve the integrity of the world integrity of the democratic world, because if ukraine does not with stand the democracy of many countries will not be able to withstand. and i'm sure of that we had to wait two, we pass the legislation overall, held up by small majority of our republican colleagues was just terrible and there's a lot more money coming beyond what's already come and the other traunches that are available now that we've passed the legislation. >> so they'll have what they need to get it there. frequency possibly can thank you so much mr. brown blood loss telegraphed, please what do you mean or my name is ela flowers are enough telegraphy. thank you for this opportunity. i have a long way from gif and have enough time to prepare such long question firstly, to joe biden, mr. president. so additional ukraine supplemental appropriations act as that you signed, mandated the submission of strategy war for the url, for the war in ukraine within 45 days after enactment. this deadline passed on june 8 and two. now, yet, the international community has not seen this strategy, has it been developed? and eve, the strategy is classified. what step does your administration plan to take to hassan ukraine victory in the world? it's my first question. the second will be to the prison suppose the last part of your question has it been developed? this strategy? and to what steps that your administration plan to take through victory? grain in the world steps we're going to take to make sure that has ukraine has victory in that russia does not prevail is continued support. >> we just signed we sign that a significant number of nations or signed it. we have convinced the g7 would convince since we've got supportive the g7. and quite frankly, 48 other countries, we sat with prime minister of japan, south korea. we have 50 the nations of signed up beyond nato and the g7 and so we're going to stay as long as it takes with regard to the plan that is that as a planning process now, we're discussing with our ukrainian friends and exactly what it would be we have a lot of movement toward that. we know the outlines of it we have no not done the detail of it all, but we know what ukraine is capable of doing when given the material to defend themselves. and that's exactly what they're doing now little heads up a tiny under president. >> and my second question, second question is to president zelenskyy will be in ukraine and recently you have made a couple of sharp statements regarding china and the room was in press regarding the possible supplies of russia's weapons to china. but from that, china is is actively promoting its own peace plan among certain countries. what are the motives of beijing now? and it would it be possible to change the vision of china regarding our war and which role the us can play in this. and the final question is is china a partner of russia in these crimes that it commits? >> three words long so the fills to all i had a phone conversation we're the leader of china by phone he said that he will not sell any weapon to rush that's it it fills, we'll see with you. will see. but he said to me if he's respectable person, he will not because he gave me the word the second. hour you know that, you know, very good with details how our peace formula, it's very open for everybody basing on charter. >> yes, urination. and and you know, that it's in basis on next principles territorial integrity sovereignty nuclear security, food security if china has alternative view on it. it can prepare alternative peace formula. if we share coleman views on it, like with globally, with all the world, i think so. so if they share the same way to we will find dialogue by the way, china is not supplying weapons, but the ability to produce those weapons in the technology available. >> so it is in fact, helping russia thank you all so very much. >> appreciate has good clothes are press conference. thank you, everybody a historic moment from the g7 in italy, president biden and president zelenskyy really addressing the world and president biden sending a message directly to russian leader vladimir putin saying, quote, you cannot wait us out, you cannot divide us we will not back down. >> we are standing together. the president touting this bilateral agreement between the united states than ukraine, one that would see the united states provide ukraine with material aid, security, and intelligence for a period of ten years though there are serious questions about how long that deal will last, given that a part of it includes this executive authority in which a future president could potentially relinquish that a power the president was also asked about a number of other issues, notably his son hunter, who is convicted earlier this week of three felony counts of inappropriate gun possession, and he was asked a question about gaza, that he apparently didn't enjoy being asked know and we can talk a little bit more about that with our panel as we opened it up, but he's been snippy recently about being asked multiple questions in these press conferences, which we should just be clear for both former white house correspondents these are very limited. they're called two and 2s and the reporters tend to, there's a tradition of asking more than the questions that's just pretty usual because there are not that many questions to ask and followers as well. that's really see many of them. and this president has, i mean, he falls far below his predecessors when it comes to interviews and when it comes to press conferences, we just need to be clear about that they have a lot of questions to ask him and these reporters do not have many opportunities. >> they've all drag themselves to italy for this g7 summit to do one thing, their jobs as these questions. >> yeah. so let's bring in our panel of experts to discuss all the issues we have cnn chief national security correspondent, alex moore court, where this former us ambassador to ukraine, bill taylor, he's also the vp for russia and europe at the us institute of peace. we have seen an military analysts, retired air force colonel cedric latent. we also have senior contributor for axios, margaret tall of a lot of talent on this panel alex talked to us about this defense pact because it doesn't go quite as far as president zelenskyy would like. but it's still an improvement and it bolsters ukraine at a critical time. >> there have been a number of events lately that president zelenskyy is certainly thankful for. and i thought it was really remarkable that he gave his opening comments and very polished english, and he spoke directly to the american people he thanked not just president biden, not just both parties in congress, but the american people. he thanked every american heart because he knows how controversial here in the states this question over many more billions of dollars going to ukraine is so recently we've seen $60 billion more approved by congress. we now have this 50 billion loan that the us has helped spearhead. and we have this ten year defense pact that really does solidify the support for ukraine. but you just touched on it, boris, i mean, this is something that is relatively tenuous. it's an agreement. it is not a treaty this is not what countries like israel or south korea, or japan have in terms of defense agreement, this is not backed by congress. this is tied to the biden administration. and while it's a 10-year deal, that will improve that military relationship when it comes to the advice that the us is giving the intelligence that the us just giving cooperation on production of arms this could all fall apart in one fell swoop one, when president trump comes to office, and i think that was kind of we were hearing a lot of that right. there was the uncertainty about what lies ahead this certainly fall short in terms of what presence linskey ultimately wants, which is to join the nato alliance, which is not going to happen imminently. so he certainly has reason to thank the us today, but i think looming over all of this, is this us election that we i've gotten a couple of months and what could happen, tiana? yeah. it's huge because you have this agreement like you said, tenuous at the same time, you have this g7 agreed upon loan, which is really important and we heard president zelenskyy welcoming that recent arms aid coming from the us. bill taylor i think the question will be, if president trump wins in the election in november, does he want to be seen as someone who is kind of dismantling this scaffolding. this is put in place in a way that is going to favor russia. and i wonder if you think all of this scaffolding is strong enough to withstand something like that or no. >> so briana, no one knows what what former president trump would do if he were back in office and we're talking a lot about that, but there's a long way to go before but your question is still a good one. that is, is this structure able to stand and presence linskey actually address that? he said the american people i have not only did he think the american people, but he recognized that the american people support this. when you look at the votes in congress, as he said, bipartisan support, both houses over and over 61 billion. but before that, that as well. so there is strong support when you ask the people, america people in polls, 60% will say yes, they support this, support their systems going to ukraine. so that's what, that's what the american people believe. that's what they support. the congress has supported. and so i think as president's linskey carefully said, whoever is elected will probably continue to support that. >> let's actually bring mj lee into the conversation because she's live four is traveling with the president in italy, mj, what stood out to you about this session? between president biden and president zelenskyy yeah. >> there were two moments that stood out to me in addition to of course, all the announcements that were made about the us and ukraine's continuing cooperation as this war goes on. first of course, were the comments that the president made about his son in light of his conviction on the three felony gun charges he said that he was proud of his son. he said that he was okay with how the judicial system works. but then we heard him saying the words, i will not pardon him, which is just released so different from that one word answer. he had given in a recent interview, he said, yes in response to the question of would you rule loud pardoning him. and then as he was walking away when the quarters shouted the question of would you consider a commuting you're son sentence? he clearly heard and he said the word, no, i just have to imagine you are having the world's eyes on you at such a high stakes diplomatic moment, and you are having to address something that is so incredibly deeply sensitive and painful for your family as any parent knows, you want to try to do anything to help your child when they're going through a difficult situation, the president, obviously, unique situation and having to utter the words in this kind of setting, i will not pardon him. i just it's hard to imagi
