"And finally, we are here from many countries today about your ongoing support for Ukraine. Ladies and gentlemen, this is a crucial moment. Russia is regrouping, recruiting and trying to require. This is not a moment to slow down - it's a time to dig deeper. Ukrainian people are watching us. The Kremlin is watching us, and history is watching us. Therefore, we will not back down or waver in our determination to help Ukraine defend itself against Russian imperial aggression," Lloyd Austin.
General Austin repeated what the Kremlin needs to know: NATO will support Ukraine "as long as it takes."
"This is a decisive moment for Ukraine and a decisive decade for the world".
