we bring harmony, where there are mistakes, we will bring truth. margaret thatcher, the iron lady, did everyone love her or support her reforms? i don't admire her intellectual method of not being able to think she could be wrong. but there is no doubt that it was thatcher's reforms that laid the foundations for the welfare of the state for many years to come. she was the prime minister who truly eradicated socialism from the system. the modern world is sorely lacking in leaders. caliber of margaret thatcher, it is all the more interesting to take another look at the extraordinary life and times of this formidable woman. come back if you want. the lady only goes forward. thatcher documentary. only forward. january 7 at 10:10 and 22:00 at espresso. an unusual look at the news. good health, ladies and gentlemen, my name is mykola veresen. sharp presentation of facts and competent opinions. and in america they also say, let's go. they will have better roads even better

, we will have a special view of events in ukraine , there will be some katsaps on the border of kyiv and beyond, which the world dreams of, well, norman, we can imagine it, all this in informational marathon with mykola veresny, saturday 5:10 p.m., sunday 6:15 p.m. at espresso. the occupiers hit the krulyvets in the sumy region, directed a rocket, two shaheds were there, and that's it. 23 private houses were damaged by this from the sumy regional military administration, there is currently no information about the victims, everything is clarified and they promise to inform a little later, our ater continues and now we are adding to the conversation hanna gobko, people's deputy of the eighth convocation, head of the verkhovna rada committee on foreign affairs of the eighth convocation and the chairman of the board of the herzezh defense national interests ans. welcome to our air, mrs. hanna. greetings to you all, christ. and we will talk about money and

international support for ukraine. the united states of america has exhausted the budget for aid to ukraine. it's so loud and very scary. kirby's announcement was actually made. is everything so terrible, or can we really count on nothing at all, or simply that support will actually be smaller, narrower, and we will have to start a little ourselves. move? well, actually, after the full-scale invasion, we were warned that russian aggression was against ukraine, and in fact genocide, is a war of attrition. and ukraine received signals back in the 22nd year, when we received 16 billion in march 22, then 40 billion. we were told that it would not be like this forever, and therefore start building your own military industry within the country, switch to a war economy, that's why. .. that there will be a decline,

in particular financial support from our international partners, including the usa, and as early as the summer of 2023, when i was in washington, there were already signals that with the approach of the presidential race in america it would be more difficult, first of all , continue, allocating funds to us, here and there is not only military aid, especially financial, economic, which goes to cover. of our budget expenditures, so i don't see anything new in kirb's statement, but the fact that president biden has the ability to allocate weapons that are in warehouses, that's what we would like, in particular, that i know that the visit of the heads of the committees is currently planned for january in the foreign affairs of the parliaments of the eu member countries, here are those who will convince america of what they have in store to give us, in particular, more atacoms, and in parallel.

to advocate that 61.5 billion should be voted, preliminary calculations that it could happen at the end of january, beginning of february , given that the presidential primaries have already started, and it makes it a little more difficult, you see that the republicans want to have direct talks with biden, that is, they have what if now the game began, who will drown whom faster electorally, and the ukrainian question became a hostage. in particular, such a struggle between two parties, two different candidates, who are putting forward their candidacies and competing for the highest presidential seat, so we have to do conclusions that under the conditions of a positive scenario, when 6.1 billion will be voted in the usa, even if it happens in february, this money will be critically small, because russia has several times the resource advantage, and this advantage in money, this advantage in ly...

the military forces that they can mobilize , unlike ukraine, because we value everyone's life, and the same in ammunition, weapons, considering the fact that north korea under... supports russia, and iran, and here not only about kamikaze drones, but in the future ballistic ones missiles, so i believe that we should have drawn conclusions back in the 22nd year, not be euphorically happy that we will soon be in crimea, but prepare for the marathon, save money, look for internal reserves, and therefore now i would believe that it is expedient for the president to gather a truly national round table with representatives of the opposition, with veterans, with... people who have authority in the world, in order to develop our strategy for the 24th, 25th, and 26th years, because budget for the 25th, one must already have an understanding of where to get money, because in in the case of a positive vote in the usa, it

will not solve all our needs, where to get money for the 25th year, when, as we are already told, only after the presidential elections, and then depending on the results, who will... win in the usa , we can count on the next tranche, and it will be significantly small, because the axis of evil has become very active and is disrupting the security space in the world, and new conflicts are emerging with new needs for weapons, and there is huge competition. ms. hanna, look, there is one more not very pleasant statement from the united states states, state department spokesman matthew miller said the united states would not support the military. financing of ukraine is at the same level as it was in 22-23 years, and this, by the way, confirms your words that you spoke about when you warned us about it, that it will not be the same as it was before, and it is about , that western partners seek to help us to build their own

military and industrial base, we understand that this is necessary, and you have already mentioned this, but on the other hand, we understand that russia already has allies such as north korea. china, iran and so on, which help it supply weapons, and ukraine, it turns out, is, well, fighting against several states at the same time in this context. and to what extent will we have enough of what we can produce ourselves? we understand that this is also not about the short-term perspective, it takes some time to develop it in ukraine, to put it on certain rails, and actually, how do we manage it all. well, let's frankly tell ukrainians that the axis of evil is in the coalition evil is china, the russian federation, iran, north korea, belarus, the de-sovereignization of which took place a long time ago, here, russia plays the role of such a military vanguard, so

when even russia runs out of resources, if the west really applies an embargo, harsh infernal sanctions, and not that we see 12 packages that have not... stopped the aggressiveness of the russian federation and the ability to produce weapons, so china will support russia when it runs out of resources and will no longer hide it, as they are now masking that they provide only humanitarian aid, although we all know military aid as well, so ukraine needs to draw conclusions a long time ago, and apart from our partnerships with the eu ukraine, ukraine nato, ukraine usa, we need to look away. those countries that control the world's high-tech in the production of weapons, these are high technologies, as our general zaluzhnyi spoke about, in order to win the war, you need to have access to high technologies and be able to use them precisely so as not to risk human

lives, guys, ultra-modern drones and so on. for this we need to develop relations, and it is very good that the visit of the minister of foreign affairs of japan is taking place now, because... that there are huge prospects for the development of cooperation with japan, because their potential has not yet been revealed, as well as south korea and taiwan, let's we are waiting for the results of the presidential elections in taiwan , which will be held on january 13, we really hope that the democratic candidate who is determined to increase aid to ukraine will win, that is why, if we still do not have a military in south korea... which opportunities in south korea , they have an agreement on the production of weapons with poland, so ukraine should look, here is a map of the world, the world, how to mobilize resources, technology and

military, plus financial support, because if the united states of america through elections, some things put on pause or reduce production, you have to look for a third time. countries for the blessing of the united states of america, and it is necessary to clearly explain in britain how the consequences of the defeat of ukraine are for them. will be deplorable, because both russia and china are already acting in a hybrid way in the arctic, and they have already destabilized the situation on the european continent in the balkans for a long time, we see what is happening in venezuela and not only the indo-pacific region, so our task now, why i appeal to the ukrainian authorities, that it is time to get rid of this belief , that the whole world owes us, and the help will be endless and so on. no, the world is so chaotic now, and we have entered such, i don't know,

geopolitical turbulence, connected with elections in various countries of the world, in romania, our neighbor, in this south korea, india, the united states, the european parliament and so on, it will be more difficult for us to maintain attention, interest and explain why western societies should continue to support ukraine, so we need a part of the resource. from the state budget to the ukrainian institute, the state institute of national remembrance, to explain to the world, tell about the genocide that russia is committing, what is happening in the occupied territories, look at what is happening in italy now, how russia wants to hold various exhibitions about mariupol and so on . that is, when we, instead of to produce powerful films and more, instead we see how the representatives of the 95th quarter win tenders, for which i do not understand at all. why do they shoot tv shows during the war? ms. hanna, you have already briefly

touched on the topics of the united states of america and taiwan. there are predictions about china's invasion of taiwan, they say that they don't have enough military power now to do it in the 24th year, but for a certain perspective in a few years, this is quite and quite a likely scenario, experts say. and accordingly, if this happens, or how important is ukraine in this context for the united states or taiwan will not attract all the attention of the united states of america, we remember that there is still the near east, that we still need to constantly regulate the situation in africa as well, and in south america, or then we will not be left completely naked and without anyone. well, actually, the united states of america told its european partners a long time ago. as soon as some events begin, hybrid attacks or direct military operations, invasion of china or

north korea, or any destabilizing acts in the indo-pacific region, they will completely switch there, so the responsibility for security, peace, stability on the european continent, they completely transfer to the european union, and this has already been said many times, and therefore, in fact, now the eu. especially the countries of the eastern flank, nato should sound the alarm, as they say, and clearly understand that if china provokes either in the south china sea or any other provocations in the taiwan strait, then they will be dragged attention there and obviously as president biden said they will defend taiwan they will because right now i don't know the exact number but it seems like over 60% of the world production of micro... chips semiconductors and so on , it is precisely in taiwan, and these are the coolest technologies in the world,

that is why the world of the military-industrial complex, even household appliances, mechanical engineering, and so on, depends on taiwan, and when i went to taiwan, in particular, i went to xinju science park, i looked at where manufacture all these chips, these companies, it is obvious that it is for them priority number one, that is, as we have already seen in the near east. that the world has switched to israel, to gaza, to the terrorist actions of hamas. ukraine is actually not in the international news of the world's top media, which are influential. at the end of the year, i was in canada, in the usa, and in britain, i can tell you that when you open a newspaper there, you see ukraine on the front pages, no, you see israel, you see about the chinese. spies in the usa and other publications, other topics, but our task is how to return ukraine to the columns

the world's leading media, how to return interest in us, and for this it is obviously critical that we succeed on the battlefield, so that we can, through cultural diplomacy and our immigrants, who are now in different countries of the world, in different capitals, continue to mobilize the world, one... of the key topics of our priorities right now is the confiscation of russian assets, and we really hope, and we are preparing a visit to rome now, to have meetings, in particular in the prime minister's office, so that during... the italian presidency in the g7 topic of confiscation of russian assets was number one, because when they tell us that there is no money, or there will be much less, then ukraine must say: here is a source of financing, give us this money, it is enough to delay or hesitate about the confiscation of the money of the central bank

of russia. thank you, hanna gobko, people's deputy of the eighth convocation, head of the committee on foreign affairs of the verkhovna rada, eighth. convening the chairman of the board , the national interest protectionist, ans, and now we will go for a short break and after that we will return to our studio, a special performance by the legendary band dead rooster with an orchestra at the lviv opera with a program of christmas and selections. compositions and favorite super hits on the stage of the lviv opera on january 8, tickets on the website of the big show ua organizer. information partners are espresso tv channel and radio fm halychyna. live sound. 93 separate mechanized

enable me ucraine family. with the support of the national assembly of people from the russian federation has changed the nature of long-range air attacks on ukraine. this is what the ministry of defense of great britain says, referring to its own intelligence. they believe that last winter russia launched strikes against energy infrastructure, and after analyzing the strikes late last year and early this year, they concluded that all of these strikes were directed primarily at the defense industry. of ukraine. so, how has russia changed its tactics, shelling tactics, and how much resources are there to maintain such a pace of massive strikes? let's see in our material. with an interval of four days, the russians staged two super-powerful attacks on ukraine. the largest took place on december 29. the aggressor country launched 158 missiles

of various types and kamikaze drones, and on january 2 , 130 air projectiles in total. on tuesday, in the first waves, the occupiers attacked various regions of ukraine with shahads. all targets were destroyed by anti-aircraft fire. later, russia launched another 99 missiles of various types. most of the shells flew towards kyiv. russian invaders tried to overload our air defense system, launched missiles and drones from different directions and changed flight routes. the russians fired several missiles at each target, but not the abenite missile complexes had time to recharge. in addition to the mass they are. had two unique features: this is a significant use of cruise missiles of the kha-101 type after a long pause, because previously russia for four months there used either shaheds

or missiles up to the s-300, and actually this massive use of the kha-101 just confirms that , that the enemy, well, was preparing carefully enough for the objects he wanted to hit, because the most accurate missiles in... the equipment of the russian army is the x101 type missiles, these are new samples, which actually, theoretically, should hit the objectives. daggers were used in significant numbers, in fact, the use of cruise missiles from aircraft bombers and the use of daggers from russian planes as well, it actually rested on the ceiling not so much of missiles as the ceiling of the number of carriers. the enemy aimed primarily at military, defense enterprises and critical infrastructure facilities. according to defense express, before the attack, russia had amassed a total of 800

missiles of various types, including 160 units of the x-101 type. from this, you can understand the intervals between possible subsequent strikes rushed such massive attacks, in principle, they cannot be frequent enough, because on the one hand the number is limited. on the other hand, the time for preparing the operation, planning the operation, takes quite a long time, because even the planning for one kha-101 missile takes from four days to two weeks, which means that these missile strikes are in two attacks, which is why they take so long prepared, and prepared so carefully, because it was difficult, well, to quickly plan the routes for each hast-1 missile, during the last missile attacks. of ukraine. russia used several missiles received from north korea. this was stated by the coordinator of the national security council of the white house, john kirby.

at the same time, russia turned to iran for help. deliveries of short- range ballistic missiles may take place this spring. tehran does not stop transferring thousands of kamikaze drones to moscow, which kill ukrainian civilians. for almost two years of full-scale war, the ukrainian air defense system has strengthened many times, during the last two massive attacks , anti-aircraft forces shot down more than 80% of enemy targets. thanks to our western partners, now our country is protected by such systems as cheetahs, nasams, sumpti, iristi, pet. only on january 2, the defense forces of the patriots shot down 10 out of 10 russian kanzhals. enemies launch them from mig-31k fighters and in a matter of seconds they

fly hundreds of kilometers. the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine valery zaluzhnyi emphasized that if these missiles hit the target, the consequences would be catastrophic. ukraine now has the most powerful air defense system in europe, which is not the case. no other country, but patriot or sumpti is covered, to put it mildly, not all of ukraine. now our air defense faces several challenges: to effectively shoot down enemy targets, destroy launch systems on the territory of russia, and cover the front lines from enemy aircraft. the general of the army of ukraine, the head of the foreign service, carefully listened and watched this material with us. intelligence in the past mykola malomuzh and we already welcome mr. mykola on our airwaves, congratulations, glory to ukraine, heroes, glory, mr.

mykola, we have seen. material, our colleague natalka stareppravo spoke about the fact that the russians will still try to supply and ballistic missiles, including from our allies, and we understand that this can be a certain problem for our air defense, because our air defense has been used to working with missiles of soviet and russian production for some time during these years of full-scale war, but probably not yet he understands well how to... work with those missiles that north korea can supply and so on. do you think this can really be a challenge for us and how should we deal with this challenge? well, first of all it is necessary to be aware that the main type of missiles will be used of russian production, because their factories are engaged day and night to produce about 100, 10-120 missiles of various types, including

k-101, k-550. modernization, modernization of the k55 , of course, iskanders, daggers and what we said caliber, that is, at the moment this line is very wide, they produce it from several dozen to hundreds almost a month, and if we say in specific gravity that 80-90% of our focus is production russia , but only recently are deliveries really underway according to the preliminary data of america... american intelligence, and we are already recording some and elements of other missiles, not of russian production, the preliminary assessment is that they are indeed north korean, but they are produced using the technology of the russian federation, north korea did not come up with anything of its own, that is, russia transferred technologies, provided production, and they provide precisely the line of production of ballistic missiles to threaten

south korea. for the threat to japan, of course, there are also ballistic missiles in the future long-range actions, it is against the united states. therefore, these parts of the missiles, they really supply them in the russian federation, and this is not new for us, that is, our anti-aircraft systems detect exactly their flights, carry out strikes, and just near kharkov, what the governor showed, it is possible one of the missiles of this production, but we shot it down, that is, it did not fly by in some way that we did not notice it. exactly the same iranian technologies, i remember that iran long ago received technologies first from the soviet union, and then from the russian federation for production of missiles of various types, aircraft of various types, exactly, and they are now returning them to russia, so far shaheds, which were produced on the basis of precisely the aviation industrial design bureaus of the soviet union, russia and even partially ukraine, and to what extent

... saw, that is, we know it, drones , and it is clear that we could produce better ones ourselves, but the logic was that iran took it as the first basis and is now transferring to russia not only drones, but also production facilities, and russia is already producing drones, well, the type of iranian production in their factories, not only that, they have already improved by 60%, it is already a hybrid of not only iranian production and... technologies, but also russian and many other countries, including the countries of the usa, europe and japan, that is , what they extract contraband to the channels, they interpret and precisely model in new drones, in the components of the missiles that we said about, and of course, these can still be ready-made ballistic missiles that will be received in iran, yes, indeed there are some differences from the flight path , protection these missiles, but it is not super powerful.

technological missiles that cannot be detected, we will have to change detection programs, detection systems, and more, so to speak, a powerful provision of just radars, according to the number of air defense systems themselves, and placement in specific sectors where there may be priority directions of strikes , but until then, i predict, knowing deeply how the intelligence of the usa, britain, germany, france works today in iran, as well as in ... north korea, measures are currently being planned to prevent such actions. why? well, regarding north korea, it is clear that in addition to handing over to russia, north korea threatens south korea, japan and even the usa. that's why the whole potential of these countries is so that korea has stopped aggression, including, following deliveries, precisely of ballistic missiles from russia, and this is being considered at the security council, even the un, but...
