[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions) The only bad news is that we are again seeing problems with Starshield, and, uh, we have detected speed restrictions on Starshield on our Ukrainian territory again in the temporary occupied parts of Ukraine.

[0:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=16) The speed limit is back at 161 kilometers per hour.

[0:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=21) That's 100 miles per hour. This directly affects our ability to intercept Russian jet-powered Shahed drones.

[0:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=29) These drones come from those areas, and because of the speed restrictions, we simply cannot catch up with them in time.

[0:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=38) And near the front line, we cannot use our aircraft.

[0:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=42) Only drone interceptors can operate this.

[0:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=45) And without the speed we need, shooting down these Shaheds becomes much harder.

[0:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=51) And this means more Russian strikes get through, and more of our people are killed, our civilians are killed by Russia.

[0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=59) We are trying to get the details from the American side, but so far we know very little.

[1:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=65) But some things are already clear. If someone in America is making decision that basically treat Ukrainian territory as if it is not Ukrainian, then this tells us where things are going.

[1:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=80) We need to be clear and never recognize Russia's occupation of Ukrainian territory in any way.

[1:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=87) And quickly, two, two more things. We have already opened four negotiation clusters.

[1:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=92) Thank you very much during your presidency, and thanks to all the leaders and to you.

[1:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=97) And we need to open all six by the end of this year, and please support this.

[1:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=102) It gives people motivation, of course, and hope.

[1:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=106) Uh, and, uh, and the last thing, sanctions.

[1:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/QiGbwXmZh0fS/en/ukraine-warns-starshield-speed-limits-hinder-drone-interceptions?t=109) We need-
