were dedicated to ukraine's struggle for independence. this is absolutely a relevant repertoire for us today. here is ukrainian christmas. two carols, with which the choir of oleksandr košyts performed in new york at that time, which were about the struggle for independence, so at first i slept thought to reproduce this repertoire, but when we started working with these songs, we were just deeply struck by how much they are really just as relevant today in the context of our war with russia, in the context of our war for independence. to christ in one of sweden's largest cities, gothenburg, the ukrainian diaspora started

celebrating christmas. the christmas party is being organized for the second time. not only ukrainians, but also swedes join the action. here, everyone can listen to ukrainian carols and enjoy traditional dishes. ukrainian christmas kitchen, and also to communicate with each other. yuliya kyzyk will talk about how ukrainians in scandinavia celebrate christmas. and what about the second holiday, saint to the epiphany, rejoice. a ukrainian carol that resounds around the world. this is the goal set by the organizers of the event in gothenburg, says mrs. oleha. and they also want our children to remember their native traditions even in a foreign country. it is most important for us to preserve these traditions in the world, so that children remember our native kolyada, which is practically a symbol of our nation at this

christmas time. it is very important that it is not was lost among them, they will grow up, they will adapt in completely different conditions, but on... of course it is important that in their hearts they had what is called ukraine. the christmas carol was organized by the ukrainian sunday school of gothenburg. many ukrainian refugee children study here. they study their native language, explore ukrainian traditions and history. olesya, the founder of the school, says that last year the community had about 3x5 hundred children, but now there are half as many families left in sweden. people do return to their native ukraine, and this... because they are somewhere have already gained some experience here, but those who are practically forced to be here somewhere within the limits of 100 families who currently attend our sunday school, we want you , host, to enter, for years and centuries

we have lived in a culture of inferiority, destroyed our culture, our traditions, and we want to show who we are, that is, show our... identity and declare ourselves, that ukrainian culture exists, that ukrainian traditions exist, and we need to spread it and tell the whole world about us. katya is 18, the girl came from kyiv to sweden almost two years ago, she had to leave her hometown due to russian aggression. adaptation in a foreign country is not easy, says katya. despite this, the girl managed to find a job and enroll in a bachelor's degree at a swedish university. nevertheless, a ukrainian woman appreciates everyone very much. the opportunity to see and communicate with compatriots, which the sunday school gives her, to maintain ties with ukraine and to maintain ties with ukrainians first of all, because it is not very easy to adapt here, including all the peculiarities

of the mentality of the people here. to ukrainian shved lars joins the christmas carol for the second time. the man says, at the beginning of the great war, when ukrainians started arriving in sweden. he could not stand aside, so he started helping refugees, which he still does. the man says that he even has his own embroidery, which he received as a gift from ukrainians. of course, we want to celebrate christmas with our ukrainian friends. i am very happy, i received such a shirt as a gift from them. i am convinced that the swedes continue to actively help ukrainians, they are happy here, and we want them to feel that. from sweden yuliya kyzyk, for espresso tv channel. for now, this is all the news for this hour , take care, i will say goodbye to you already until tomorrow,

are coming, in particular, it is about the appearance of many different publications with a certain leitmotif. yes, we understand, there may be nothing behind them, but the appearance of this leitmotif is extremely stressful. they write, but what will happen, for example, to europe, the world economy, and so on, if ukraine will lose, and here the key story is not that someone there can question it, yes, but because...

they began to manipulate in the decision of their internal issues, including the issues, precisely to manipulate, realizing that one part of the power, there are the same democrats , and they are, by the way, very heterogeneous, it depends on - even relative success on the front in ukraine, in general the situation related to ukraine, the preservation of its sovereignty, protection from aggression and so on, in order to solve their issues, and in general solve such problems at the time of war, not in the point that ukraine needs economic help, some kind of social aid for reforms,

is very bad, and what will happen next time, that is, the war does not tolerate pauses, does not tolerate breaks, lunches, christmas holidays, the war continues every day, well i would say that there is one group of parasites of this type of real politicians or isolationists, if we are talking about american politics, who use this situation as an agreement to solve their own problems, by the way , they are not only interested in trump winning the elections , there will be elections there, they need to support the voters during their elections, so to speak, and they mostly... as for the wing of the inner-democratic party, it is stable, that's all that goes against it -

politicians, let's say, who implement the american the leadership , regardless of whether it is republican or democratic , even if it supports israel, even if it supports ukraine, everything is bad, this is a left-liberal, such a left-wing, extreme left-wing, it is essentially left-liberal, but it is left-democratic, you can say , it's the same stands against ukraine, and the press, this is the most so-called... quality american press, from cnn to their ilk , published there, the hill, there, and so on, politics , they are all generally oriented towards this left-liberal wing, see , read, new york times yes we see that these sentiments have been present there, too , quite steadily and for a long time, not to mention some editions and noisy articles, here are the shrews and others, yes, that is, we have already seen it, in europe the situation is a little different, you see, it is changing the situation in which direction, well, here is the arrival, in addition to orban, fitso in slovakia, to the leadership, the corresponding party also came a pro-moscow organization, in holland now, even in

the netherlands, it is not clear how it will be with geert wilders and the freedom party, what kind of coalition will be created, plus... in the twenty in the fourth year there will be elections in lithuania, in great britain, in germany, there are a dozen european countries, you know, so how would the struggle for public opinion begin, including that which generally appeals or parasitizes, if you will, on sentiments like, why does ukraine pay us so much money, yes, why should we support it in the war, why does it spend taxpayers' money on such a hopeless business in advance, let's better let them...

it is possible that the story is not only about elections and about money , well, at one time, in principle , the situation was outlined quite well by the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine valery zaluzhnyi, as he said, well, in general , in order to win in such wars, it is necessary to increase the nomenclature and the number of this nomenclature, well, without aviation, fight with a nuclear state, which has a large number of aviation, well, extremely. okay, and so on down the list, you understand, and here, when i hear all the voices saying that there is ukraine like this or ukraine like that, well, we understand, that is , they lead to such a story, so that in the event of something, the responsibility is shifted to whom, you know, do these voices sound, well, i heard somewhat unexpectedly from ben hodges, just this week, he said that in

general it is necessary to intensify mobilization, but he was describing what it means that those who means bowing to it, means to increase it radically because of the plans - to raise this mobilization figure to 450-5000 , means to raise this mobilization figure , means to call up someone, and , as it were, with reproaches for what ukraine did in previous years, but now not before that, what did she do there in the previous years, in the previous decades, what did she do, why was he once in the military industry, yes, of course, if he had not been wasted and nuclear weapons had not been given away, there would have been no war , how to fight them? therefore naturally of course, this is all trouble, but it’s difficult to address them even to zelensky, even to zaluzhny , to whomever it may be, well, it’s somehow difficult, it’s clear that this is the same ukraine, and the ukraine that was under yanukovych, and the current ukraine, ukraine the same, but the politicians are different, you see, that’s why these accusations, they look like transferring from a sick head to a healthy one, because in the conditions of chaos , there is a war, that is the one that directly ignited this

war, well, to be honest, he sits down for discussions about that, it means that it was done wrong, many... years ago or what is needed do it right now, but not at the expense of the help of the west, but at the expense of ukraine itself, this is not a very grateful thing, the fact is that the west also signed up for all these supplies, that of aircraft, that of long-range missiles, he is about it declared, i remember all these rammsteins, on which all this was stated , supported, fixed, and there it was said that of course this must be done, that's all, that's all, it 's fair, it's all clear, yes, that's what's needed here to get, here to type. and so on, and what happens now? these obligations are not fulfilled, and the perspective of their fulfillment, it can be well determined, yes, but, but not in time, again, and what kind of strategy is being prepared, we also don’t understand, what kind of numbers are gaining in order not to give them weapons, so that something simple again, what are the masses to fight? we reproached moscow for this, we said that moscow is fighting with flesh against iron, why

would ukraine repeat this tactic on the one hand, although again, well, the military is needed, there is mobilization. it is necessary, but it is necessary to report that without weapons is absolutely without that the western allies who have taken on this obligation can hand over, this is all pointless, it will not have the desired effect, again, what a war, let's say, will there be plans in the twenty-fourth year in ukraine, in the armed forces of the ukrainian armed forces, for the deoccupation of these 20 %, well, there probably will be, but the main focus should be on ensuring the defense of already protected territories, 80%, everyone is talking about it, it is fair. at least 80% of the possible change in the situation at the front of the offensive on the part of the occupying forces of their territory, because well now the question is the same, and in different

areas, this is also from the side of moscow, i don’t know where kharkiv should be defended from the side of the belgorod region or there from the north of belarus, there is sumy, chernihiv and so on, the contradictions within the military and civil leadership will stop these contradictions, stop these public clarifications, but it seems to me a press conference. well, it was necessary to work more actively on this, we understand, it is an extremely serious problem, at least it is perceived as such in certain offices, in the west, in the kremlin, it is also read, well, what are they waiting for in the kremlin, i.e. the key story is yes, the introduction of the so-called split of the elites and manipulation of this and accordingly using it in their strategic plans, by the way, i would also like to talk about strategic plans on the part of the kremlin, i.e.... with on the one hand, putin also long and tediously told various fables during his so-called concluding new year’s line, so we understand that he lied from three boxes, on the other

hand, we understand that he is seriously preparing for a long scenario, that is, he is also not on course got lost you know, putin was encouraged by the course of events of this twenty-third year, starting from the summer, when the counteroffensive , which was so feared, was greatly feared by moscow, the kremlin, they didn't even hide it much, it's not... as the election wants, tighten the nuts further, he can spend he can continue to spend this resource dangerously. for him, perhaps, gathering russian commoners, sending them to the front in avdeevka, where they die by the thousands, you know, what a little man who could, under certain circumstances, show his

dissatisfaction, and yes , you know, they spent, the next ones were sent, that is, many useful things he brings out of the war, therefore , of course, everything that was done will be done, but there will also be a lot of something new, that’s the bet after all putin's policy is for changes in the political decisions of the new leadership, if it comes to power.

well, on the other hand , he managed to conquer the so-called agenda inside russia. mark, you very correctly noted that in

principle fascism was successful, certain mobilization processes are ongoing, little man is dying near avdiivka, there is no end in sight , i think this is the main thing that putin wanted to demonstrate to the western audience, i.e. western generals, they are not used to perceiving war as... a pit into which you can throw 10, 20, 30, 50 thousand personnel warehouse, take prisoners, turn them into minced meat and further and further and after that, well, behind the scenes, applause, putin unconditionally denies responsibility for the deaths of dozens, and even hundreds of thousands of military personnel whom he sends, and he has nothing in russia in general, except for this sporadic indignation of the minimal...

zaluzhny wrote in his article in ekonme: "well, we said, we didn't expect that it was possible to spend 150,000 and nothing, i myself say, he observed in the avdeev direction, i remember, he writes there that 140 units of equipment were assembled together with crews there and so on and nothing, it continued, all these senseless attacks, meat assaults and so on, this is putin's strong point, he is frightened by it, that he has an infinite mobilization resource, unlike ukraine, well and approach secondly, ukraine does not proceed from the fact that as many people as possible will be digested in this meat grinder, and putin does not have such restrictions, you see, and this certainly makes an impression, even on the ukrainian side, that he talks about the west, the west is just like that to say shocked, because when the american side declares that in a month the russian armed forces lost 15,000 servicemen near avdeyevka, well, imagine what kind of impression it makes, so to speak , imagination, considering that for each

a soldier there, in general, the responsibility is incredible, and they protect their military fortunes , no one wants to have 15,000 people there in a month, that is, for them it is incredible, and for putin it is a strong country, you know, a strong country, everything else is in anabioz, look, even the oligarchs, as an element that he does not like, of course war, and they do not want this war, they only lose from it, but nevertheless they all supported putin and defected, he created a situation of ticks for them, that on it is impossible to be in the west and... you mentioned that it is necessary to send strong, powerful signals, yes, about the unity of the elites, well, like it, dislike it, everything must remain, the entire, so to speak, internal kitchen must remain within the limits of the situation rooms, that is, it is not is carried out , it must be demonstrated that the readiness to go through a long, bloody cycle, and we do not know approximately with what resources putin will be ready, so to speak, to intensify offensive actions, that is, we do not know whether

he will have enough... resources or technical, well, at least we can see the process of retraction of russian society for the entire duration of the war, accordingly, ukraine must now also build several very important cases, and i would actually like to talk to you about them. as for ukraine's strategy in general, it is certainly important for ukraine to demonstrate some successes in order to give the west a basis in domestic matters, which comes from... well , this is the resource of victory, because it is very important in the west, especially in america, to demonstrate at least a small but success is not in vain, you know, it is not necessary only success on the fronts, yes, that is, it is not necessary only there the conversion of weapons received and financial resources into military victories, this is also such a relative thing, but in any case, what ukraine is doing today is the maximum possible, this must be understood if it will be possible to disrupt the elections, if it is possible

to continue some actions in relation to... it does not have any effect, but it is still necessary to continue the tactic of throwing the war back into the russian federation, so that the population there will also feel about it and immediate problems, and not only the fact that relatives are being killed and there are numbers of mobilized people and so on, this tactic is important, well, plus, look, now the so-called elections in russia are on march 17, we need to achieve their delegitimization, it is necessary that the west still owns word said that we do not

recognize putin as the president because... he is a war criminal, he is, i don't know, eh, is being prosecuted by the international criminal court, and this means that if he is an illegal, illegitimate president, then it is necessary from all organizations, up to un, yes, ah, i have in the kind of representation that russia carries out there, as a founding country with the right, well, it was transferred to the status of gaddafi or saddam, well, in general, then it’s simple in the second way, otherwise it’s complete nonsense, because in the eighteenth year there were so-called elections , now here... in the twenty-fourth, 6 years have passed, and these are the elections, which, well, it is clear that this is already the sixth election, yes, he was elected five times once, count half the time, medvedev was there, which is also the same thing the same as putin, this is also his election, all this is needed somehow, in general , it will round off to the side where there are no chances left - for some kind of return to the legitimate field, putin is very concerned about this, here he is...
