determined

Evidence: the speech uses assertive, action-oriented language and repeatedly emphasizes resolve and unity (calls to action, future-focused statements, promises of response). It acknowledges loss but frames it with defiance and purpose, not panic or overwhelming sorrow—so “determined” fits best.
