By KYIV. Nov 15 (Interfax-Ukraine) – President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky announced his speech in Indonesia at the summit, as he said, "G-19."
"We know that peace is getting closer for Ukraine. For our entire country. In a few hours I will be talking about this in my address to the participants of the G19 summit in Indonesia. This is an association of very significant states," he said in a video statement on Monday.
He said "today, on the eve of the summit, weighty statements have already been made. In particular, it is important that the United States and China jointly noted the inadmissibility of any threat to use nuclear weapons. Everyone understands to whom these words are addressed."
Zelensky also thanked Canada for "a new half-billion dollar defense support package for our state," as well as "for new sanctions against Russian accomplices of tyranny – against the cogs of this system."
"I thank the United States for the new sanctions steps. Today, sanctions have been imposed against more than 40 legal entities and individuals helping Russia to fight. Absolutely everyone who in one way or another works for the Russian army, the defense sector, must receive complete personal isolation from the whole world. And then there will be punishment for complicity in terror," he said.
The president welcomed the adoption at the UN of a resolution on the creation of an international compensation mechanism, "which will make it possible to compensate for all the losses caused by the Russian war, and at the expense of Russian assets."
"The reparations that Russia will have to pay for what they have done are now part of the international legal reality," he said. "The second resolution – to create a special tribunal for the crime of Russian aggression against Ukraine – is still being coordinated with our partners. We will do everything to make them both work," Zelensky said.
