The video says (transcribed automatically):
You are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that. Putin is no humanitarian. He is a torturer. He's a kidnapper of children. I think this remark about Putin being a humanitarian is going to go down in the annals of history. It is shameful and stomach -turning. It would be ludicrous and laughable. But Vladimir Putin is definitely guilty of war crimes. He has abducted children. He is trying to... not only seize territory but he's trying to eliminate the ukrainian culture its religion its language he is trying to subjugate a people which is why it has been called genocide and a war crime and to say it that he is a humanitarian is just such a mockery of the term
