00:00NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte stressed that any ceasefire or peace deal in Ukraine
00:06must be lasting.
00:08His comments came during a joint press conference with Ukraine's top diplomat Andrei Sebiha,
00:13as NATO foreign ministers convened at the Brussels HQ for a meeting.
00:17Rutte emphasized the need to stand by Ukraine to bring an end to what he called a global
00:22conflict.
00:23He added that the outcome of this war will determine the future stability and security
00:27of other areas like the Indo-Pacific.
00:29Ultimately, there is an audience of one which will be judging the outcome of this war.
00:36That is the first secretary of the Communist Party of China, Mr. Xi Jinping.
00:40And he will be watching who comes out on top.
00:43Is it Russia or the West?
00:46And that will also inform him in his next steps in the Indo-Pacific, I have no doubt.
00:52Sebiha reaffirmed his country's commitment to peace.
00:55The Ukrainian foreign minister noted that more pressure must be exerted on Russia to
00:59agree to a peace deal and end the bloodshed.
01:02Russia must get serious about peace.
01:05For this, it is time to increase pressure on Moscow.
01:09Now is the time for diplomacy, but also pressure and deterrence.
01:14While the media attention is on global trade wars, we must not forget there is a real full-scale
01:21war going on in Europe.
01:24Russia remains an existential threat to Europe.
01:28Sebiha says Kiev accepted a US proposal for a full, unconditional ceasefire, which Putin
01:33has not.
01:34The top Ukrainian diplomat is set to hold bilateral talks with partners and allies to
01:39explore ways to bring the fighting in his country to an end.
