western analysts that putin still hopes to seize at least some piece of ukrainian land, in your opinion, what should be prepared for, and do you agree with the opinion of general muzhenko, perhaps in the army, or is it also considered that defense strategies should be now in the first place in the coming months, you know, putin until, until march in general... you have to live, he should not think about the offensive, he should already be preparing some piece of land for himself somewhere, he has already been there for a long time, the enks have put him there for non-visitation, here, but our main task is, of course, to prepare for any development of events, specifically, i can tell you about the eastern direction, about the operational group, the troops, and the enemy has intensified along the entire line and accordingly. over the past day

, there was quite a lot of activity in the kupinsky, lymansky, and bakhmatsky directions. when you say activism, what does that really mean, does it mean trying to storm assaults with technology, or some other form of activism? yes, the enemy is trying to attack our ukrainians positions, such as infantry, storm infantry, these are units storm, storm z, storm c. which are formed from former prisoners, military convicts, the commander, usul horty, this is colonel-general oleksandr syrskyi already noted on his telegram channel that former representatives of the so-called wagner had already been discovered, their number is small, they also participate in planning assaults, assault groups are taught how to carry out their tasks, and in some parts of the front we see that

there are only infantry assaults, so-called local assaults, on others where there is a larger area between , a greater distance between the positions, the russian occupiers and the ukrainians, the rashists use equipment in order to bring down the infantry, then they retreat and, with the support of tanks, begin their assault actions, that is, the line to the east, it now active throughout the entire segment. and we see that a passive, hidden mobilization is taking place in russia in order to make up for the losses suffered by the russians in ukraine, i want to remind you that only since the beginning of november the losses of the russian occupation army precisely on our area, there are 8,700 people, and accordingly, they also have a big problem with defectors and deserters who leave... the battlefield, i.e.

losses, plus deserters, so this is a resource that they pull from all over moskaland, that is precisely aimed at to make up for these losses, and these russian soldiers who come here and then get captured by us, are they now talking about some kind of their own, i don't know, fighting spirit, motivation, what are they saying? in general, it is difficult to understand why they die in ukraine, you know, when a person is captured, in it there immediately comes an enlightenment there or something else, but eh, why do they participate in all that at all, of course, this only proves that at the moment in russia the tv still wins over the refrigerator, that is , propaganda continues to work, they continue to believe in the people of bandera continue to believe all the fairy tales they are told on tv, and due to this

low level of education and active propaganda, they are involved in hostilities in ukraine, in addition to all that, in prisons, the prisoners themselves no longer want to participate in hostilities actions, but cars arrive, they are simply packed , those who are left to serve a year or six months, they are packed, they are already arriving, they see that they are already in ukraine, they are dressed, they are given weapons, he says run, there is a landing there, fine, no it happened, well, in russia, the wives of military personnel, they created such a telegram channel and organized themselves through it, the telegram channel пут домой, it is called, and this telegram channel came up with an action, it seems to be gaining momentum in russia now, it is glued to cars such stickers, it sounds, it sounds

they are in such a way as to betray my husband, i am tired, in and out, there is not a word in this telegram channel, as they write, about war, that they... do not want war, that they are against putin , or that they support ukraine, only here are these stickers, er, someone else wrote the son-in-law, also v, do you believe that these wives can somehow get their husbands back to them and not in black sacks, trash, uh, well, look, sponsoring... the return of rashists to laptyastan, the armed forces of ukraine are acting, they have two methods deliveries, the first is in packages and partially, and the second is if their lives end with being handed over to the armed forces of ukraine in columns and there is

an exchange, well, mr. volodymyr, i still ask , well, if you can say about it, how do you do you generally evaluate the prospects for the next year? in your opinion, what should be expected, should we expect to go to the borders of 91 and so on and so forth, should we still have some more cautious forecasts, in a word, what is expected, you know, it's a bit beyond my competence, but i am like any other a citizen of ukraine, i believe in our armed forces, i believe in the ground forces and in every serviceman who is currently at the front and contributes: colossal e, colossal strength, to our future victory, by the way, about faith in the armed forces of ukraine, now the time is approaching holidays, ah, people buy some gifts, volunteers talk about the fact that it's getting harder and harder to collect donations, and it's getting harder and harder

somehow to remind people that the war is going on, and it's too early to relax, too early to return to a more or less peaceful life, because russian missiles and air alarms are all we are reminded of the fact that there is a war going on in ukraine, i mean those people who are far from the front line, that the military is talking about this and that and that, the gap between the civilian population and the military is growing, the military is doing its job, our task is to kill the enemy and drive him out of the territory of ukraine, everything else will happen after the victory. thank you, thank you, mr. volodya, vodymyr fityo was with us, the head of the public relations service of the ground forces of the armed forces of ukraine, we talked about, in particular, which the situation is now in the east, in the south, i can say now, i wanted to say more, actually about what is

in us, we will talk soon with igor romanenko, with the lieutenant general, we will also talk about the situation at the front, we will discuss a little about how they can the trends will change , so to speak, for wars for the next year, here , i already mentioned an interesting interview, viktor mozhenko, a general who was, headed from the 14th year to the 19th, the armed forces of ukraine, was actually in the place of the to the commander-in-chief, muzhenko, by the way, interestingly, he is mentioned here this fact, he came to the general headquarters on the first day of the war, and this is known, this picture, where they together with zulzhun were engaged in the first planning of repelling russian attacks, and by the way, he was, for some time, involved with zulzhun in helping with planning, and to be honest,

i thanked him publicly for this help, but then, somehow, he was removed, then it was good. said that it was a demand of the president, zelensky did not like that he involved mozhenko with his experience, because mozhenko is a combat general, he participated in combat operations, not only was at the headquarters , but the president did not like it then, and therefore mozhenko had to be removed from some kind of operational planning of all activities, so a very interesting interview really turned out where mozhenko lists a lot of problems and attacks on zaluzhnogo and problems with mobilization and believes that he is analyzing the counterattack, why he did not succeed there and says

that, well, from such key moments, probably says muzhenko, that right now we see him zaluzhnogo, bent over the map, this somewhere at the beginning of the 22nd year, the beginning of the russian invasion, mozhenko says that we should now move to active defense, namely, to defense, which will also mean counteroffensive actions if possible, when the windows will open, but in general, now focus on defense, is needed for the next year, understanding that russia will try to advance, attack, well, he says that we should have enough of a mobilization reserve, if we do not copy russian practices with various frontal meat assaults, and exchanges, relatively speaking people, and very much says that a lot needs to be invested in the training of the troops, the troops must be trained and motivated, and this is a guarantee of victory, because any equipment, including the same leopards, they are effective, there are

the newest tanks and so further, this technique is quite complicated, it requires a very long training, by the way, i remember very well the interview , when all these conversations took place, when we were still just gathering the panlensky tank coalition and then reznikov, and the interview was very interesting, i read a retired american colonel who was the commander of the abrams. who went through several military companies, in particular in iraq and in afghanistan, and he said that in fact the abrams is an extremely effective, perhaps the best tank in the world, but it can only be effective when the entire planning system in which this tank is included is effective, because it's like if, if something, something that hits, but behind it there's a lot of everything else that supports this blow that this one makes. and accordingly he said in this interview that it takes years of training,

literally years of training on this tank in order for it to become really very formidable weapons, and if you plant a person with little training, then this tank becomes just an ordinary tank, like any other tank, that is, it is very difficult to take advantage of its advantages, well, that means that this is what muzhenko also says in the interview i know that there are no miracles, unfortunately, there aren’t any, man, by the way... i remember that at the end of the 45th year, the germans had fo1, fo2, fo3, rockets, which no one had at that time, except germany , the germans had jet planes, mr. schmidty, there, i don't remember what they were called there, which no one had yet jet aviation, they already had, they had an absolute advantage in the air, these planes, but there were not enough of them, they did not have time to train them and therefore they did not become...' it was not really a miracle weapon, but it did not give germany the opportunity turn the tide of events.

well, gentlemen, in the meantime, and this, well, listen, is such a restrained optimism, i read this same nato intelligence and shared with you, we have, we have a restrained optimism, the russians will try to attack, but we have every opportunity to prepare , repel this blow, inflict huge losses on them again, and this is after that, or there will be our counterattack after theirs. positions that have already been cut, or weakened, or there will be putin, if there is another putin, then there will already be some of our news, political proposals will appear, well , gentlemen, in the meantime, we are going to take a short break, and then we will continue , we will have ihor romanenko, lieutenant general, we will analyze the situation at the front, stay with us. for black friday, eve buys a supply of cosmetics, and also a supply of impressions from mego, minus

well, let's probably start with an operational assessment of the situation on... what can be heard under the audio booth, there the russians announced that they have moved to active defense , which probably sounds strange, who are they defending against, they are defending their propaganda approach, which is related to the fact that they must take luhansk , donetsk region within the administrative borders, well, putin once again brought the task to november 4, let's see we understand what is happening, and now from the last one, as they say, until the end of the year, but i think, with the actions of our defense forces of ukraine, we will disrupt their operations, er, it is clear that they have forces, they have strengthened, the units of the unit from the north and all the way to kherson, from the direction of

of the kharkiv region along the entire front line, and unfortunately they still have the strength, but... no more in order to achieve some tactical advance in some areas, but advance forward, and there is danger in this, so they are taking place in fierce our battles, the limansky, kupyansk direction, avdiyivka, er, bakhmud, er, kherson direction, those areas are defended, especially around krynka. settlements in the south, that is, in general, along the front line, at the current time, in my opinion, the defense forces of ukraine have moved to active defense, and the war has a positional character, taking into account such approaches, the president, as the supreme commander

in chief, set the task of forming the defense system in more threatening directions, and personally worked, at the front, works with the administrations that must participate, and this further indicates that in the near future , attention will be paid to this, i.e., defense along the entire front, launching counterattacks in directions that have prospects and in those directions where we have forces, and to win this time in order to accumulate forces for the future, in that. ..' effective since the spring of the 24th year and at the expense of the assistance provided by the allies, the diplomatic work of today is very difficult. cause, as well as the activation of the activities of the enterprises of the military industrial complex, for which large amounts of money have been allocated in the budget for the next

year, well, there is intense work going on in this regard , because we see that what is what is what is what is what is what is what is what is what rather, it was put on the stream and then supplied to our defenders, which is very fast for any, and the armament, including enough difficult, we see it as it happened during two, almost two years of war. putin made a decision that the armed forces of the russian federation, the army will be increased by 170,000 men, while there will be no mobilization - putin claims, and his, his if the administration, in your opinion, this will affect what is happening, why such a decision was made and, by the way, do you agree with

the assessment of nato intelligence, as reported by cnn, that putin, perhaps after the election, will try to carry out another, one big, big offensive in ukraine, their work continues with replenishment, and with the increase in the potential of the armed forces of the russian federation, an important part is occupied by personnel, we remember that their number of citizens is four times more than ours, and therefore, first of all, it is necessary to clearly understand that the replenishment will be carried out further, and if it is there within the framework of their legislation, they recycle it or apply it as beneficial. and it is necessary, putin does not stop this, well, such approaches, and that is why it continues all the time from the very beginning

of the war, the activity continues in relation to supply of personnel. let it be fully prepared, equipped, trained, but even here they made conclusions, i am doing such work on mistakes at home, and now they still try to pass them there through training centers, we know how they used the belarusian training centers and their own, one way or another , the replenishment is taking place, if so, it is a threat, it is an increase in their potential at the front, which must be destroyed by our defender, and as a conclusion, it is necessary to react accordingly and understand that the decrease in the number their staffing will not occur, at least, but an increase, and on the other hand , it is necessary to clearly imagine that our mobilization actions, which are being considered here , have been intensified recently, they must be carried out more

decisively, in order to staff, well, at least there by 90 percent, our brigades that operate on the front line, that is, for the first time , help to focus the personnel on increasing their potential in terms of personnel... and also to form the appropriate brigades already now in order to carry out decoupation actions on next year, on the one hand, due to the supply of new military equipment, as allies and the production of their own, and on the other hand , the formation of new brigades, because the resources of this year have actually been used, or there is still a small amount of them, and therefore there is a large one.. site, work area. actually , i don’t know if you have seen, general muzhenko, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine in 14-19 years, gave a long interview to bbc ukraine,

and where he also says that the formation of such reserves is a guarantee of stability, stability, if next year, and yes itself urges, in the coming year, to fully concentrate on defense, which will save the lives of the military and contain this, this russian offensive, i would like to add here that defense must be dealt with now, the defense system, in fact, at the front, we have switched to active defense , there is a war going on for the most part, with counterattacks from our side in certain directions, where there is a perspective, but in general the picture is exactly like this, and it is necessary to strengthen it with engineering facilities, support: the formation of a system of this defense, the president worked at the front, and it is necessary that our border administrations take part in this, and in general, the whole of

ukraine should help. specifically in this, and this time is a gain in order to prepare for next year, i think that depending on how much strength we muster will be found out, and only then can we make plans regarding how to behave on next year, that is, whether there will be opportunities from this defense, which is happening now, to move to conducting conk-offensives in separate directions. principles that will provide the strategic level of task performance , territorialization, that is, all this will depend on the opportunities that we will gather during this time, and it will be possible to form these plans only on these opportunities, and not now, if, so conditionally, this is not done in war , a war that is formed on the basis of objective laws, this

must... always be remembered. mr. igor, nato intelligence says that putin, after the elections in russia, after he becomes president again, will start a new offensive in ukraine in 2024, and actually, where do you think that will there be an offensive, if there is one, and how will it differ from those previous russian offensives? i would like to put the question differently, if we will...' of course, before one's actions, one must find out the state of the enemy, the prospects of his actions, and so on, but this is passive defense with some manifestations of activity, we know that when in their elections, we know, we know that he will intend to, as you have formulated, we know, so we need to build such actions that while they are preparing for these offensive actions, we need to gather quickly, our allies

and strike before that, and therefore in such a case, from this kind of our actions will be effective, that is, without waiting for them to start, as it was in january of this year and then all the time and still they are advancing tactically, but advancing, i pay attention , and to make a super attack in defensive battles to weaken, to choose by striking several blows and let's name a lot of cuts, where the weak point, will stop at all but one, which was not done this year and precisely in this direction to strike and do it before when they plan their offensive actions, that's it there is efficiency in this, and the way to our victory is not extensive actions of quantity, as they do, but only qualitative struggle, precisely qualitative, i emphasize this. well, thank you very

much for this comment, ihor romanenko was with us, lieutenant general, the founder of the boladian fund for covering the sky of ukraine, we are talking about what awaits us this winter, as well as next spring, next year, in general, obviously, that russia will now try to prepare some new offensive, accumulate offensive troops in order to try to make some breakthroughs in next year, but we also know about it and we need to prepare just now , we know how effective the ukrainian forces can be in defense, and in the end we saw how it worked during our offensive, when we went to preparatory positions. dear friends, we are approaching 9 o'clock in the morning, it is at 9 o'clock in the morning that we remember all those ukrainians whose lives were cut short by russian aggression, so

please, let's honor them. with a moment of silence, we will remember every civilian and military person who did not live to see today day, due to russian aggression. let's observe a moment of silence in memory of ukrainian soldiers and peaceful citizens of ukraine who died in the war started by russia.
