Hi. Good afternoon, and good morning to everyone, and welcome to VEON's Second Quarter Results Presentation for the period ending 30 June 2023. I'm Nik Kershaw, I'm pleased to be joined in the room today by Kaan Terzioğlu, our Group CEO; along with Joop Brakenhoff, our Group CFO.
Today's presentation will begin with the key highlights and business update from Carne. Following this, Joop will discuss the detailed financial results. We'll then hand it back to Kaan to discuss our outlook and priorities for 2023. As ever, we will ensure that there's time for your questions, but would ask that you save this for the end of the presentation.
Before getting started, I would like to remind you that we may make forward-looking statements during today's presentation, which involve certain risks and uncertainties. These statements relate in part to the company's anticipated performance and guidance for 2023, future market developments and trends, operational and network development and network investments and the company's ability to rise its targets and commercial and strategic initiatives, including current and future transactions. Certain factors may cause the actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements including the risks detailed in the company's annual report on Form 20-F and other recent public filings made by the company with the SEC. The earnings release and the earnings presentation, each of which include reconciliations of non-IFRS measures presented today can be downloaded from our website.
With that, let me hand it over to Kaan.
