his companies didn't produce, i don't know, underwear there, clothes for military personnel, so they were engaged in some kind of construction business there and so on, here and there they throw us around, well, what about the builders, you sew on fashion, but there is nothing to do, we sew and so on , and then i wanted to ask you again, well, if you have the strength to talk about all these stories, strange publications and attempts, so to speak , to block our military deployment, then we understand that war is not only about people, war is about resource. that is, artillery shells, you know, they are austrian a field marshal somewhere in the 17th century said that it is a question of money, money and money again, but eh, but the question is not in this, you understand that well, how can you say, what needs to be changed in tender purchases, yes, nothing needs to be changed, people it is necessary to change which ones conduct it, which ones prepare it and which ones conduct it, that's the whole story, well, it's all these, all these possibilities. they happen exclusively because

of what people do, not institutions do not work, and cannot work, in principle , people who perform their duties in the institution, they substitute, substitute rules, cheating on the rules and so on and so forth, that is, by and large, this element of the system, yes, the system is made up of rules, institutions and people, this element of the system, which is called people, is our weakest element. the weakest is the people, it is the people, because there are rules , it is transparent, there is the ministry of defense, which all this is prescribed, but there are people who want to make money from this, and they begin to cheat on these rules in principle, they begin to not just change them , and they start to neglect them, they start to make it fit adapt these rules to specific ones, and maybe our problem is also that...

the responsibility for such acts is not high enough, because our legislation generally provides for responsibility for this, well, maybe, to put it mildly, martial law is too light , maybe it's worth it after all, well, i understand that we are a democratic state on the one hand, but on the other hand, if there is no other way, then how can we fight this? come on, let's agree with you that i've already said it dozens of times, it's probably not the case in the degree... of responsibility or in the severity of responsibility, even if you do it before the execution, it will not make sense, the question is, the question is that there must be inevitability of responsibility, there must be inevitability of responsibility and a fair trial, and about court, look, and bohdan lviv has resumed his post, he has a russian passport, despite the fact that the journalists of the scheme found a russian passport in his possession, the state will also compensate him. forced absenteeism, no,

well, well, the situation here is such that, in principle, uh, you understand, where is the crime, where is the crime , where is the violation, here you are, you will understand correctly that there are laws that in principle describe a situation that is a crime and which is not a crime, so if there is no criminal activity, then that... then he was reinstated in his position, then there must be a different story here, there must be some kind of personnel commission, make the appropriate decision to dismiss this position in connection with this, that, that, if they were simply dismissed , well, for the fact that the journalists found a russian passport, yes, but we do not have any criminal responsibility code or in the labor code, which would provide for dismissal for having a russian passport. this is also a debatable question. i agree with you

absolutely, i agree with you that, in principle, today, the presence of such a citizenship indicates the presence, or rather a passport, and not citizenship. the presence of such documents indicates that this was a person who was loyal, all the time loyal to the russian federation, moreover, she was preparing herself for a certain time in order to live there, but in ... in which case it was not in it is prescribed in the legislation as a crime , it was not prescribed in the legislation as an offence , it was not in any way there at all, well, except for moral condemnation, it did not cause anything in you and me and did not cause it in other people, and therefore the question, you understand that it is then there is only a question of moral condemnation, but no legal responsibility. thank you, viktor chomak, the chief military prosecutor of ukraine in the 19th and 20th years

in a new two-hour format, even more analytics, even more important topics, even more top guests - foreign experts, inclusion from abroad, about ukraine. the world is the front, society, and feedback. you can express your opinion on the bad day with a phone survey. turn on and turn on. verdict with serhii rudenko every weekday from 20 to 22 at espresso. the information day of the tv channel continues. well, there are many events today, the verkhovna rada is working, tomorrow the mobilization bill will be considered in the first reading, but the key story is unfolding on the fronts. in particular, in the tavria direction, oleksandr shtupun, spokesman of the united pres-center of defense forces of the tavria direction, colonel of the armed forces of ukraine, is in touch with us. glory to ukraine, mr. colonel, we congratulate you. glory to heroes. avdiivka, avdiivka and enemy activation north of avdiivka.

in particular, it is about the enemy's attempts to advance in the direction of novobakhmutivka and the battles nearby steppe what is now in this operative direction? fighting continues, during the past day our soldiers repelled 11 attacks near novobakhmutivka, avdiivka, and severny, and another 13 near pervomaiskyi and nevelskyi. the enemy does not use a lot of armored vehicles, it is mainly infantry, and what, let's say, significantly, the enemy was actively attacking again last day. strikes, in particular in the avdiiv and marin directions. in general, in the operational zone of osavuria , the russian occupiers carried out 25 airstrikes and conducted 42 combat engagements and 705 artillery fire. mr. oleksandr,

look, the bilt publication declares that the armed forces of ukraine foiled the winter offensive of the russian federation, and all putin's plans went astray, and i would like to find out. from you, to what extent do you see at the front that the large-scale waves of attacks by the russians have already subsided, and whether it really hurts, if you believe. currently, all large-scale waves of attacks by the occupiers have already been overcome by our armed forces, and accordingly, the russians must now draw up reserves, what is the situation with about this in your direction? well, as you can see, well, somewhat yes , the number of infantry attacks has decreased somewhat, but there is no need to relax, the enemy still has quite a lot of manpower, also er... he still has an advantage in the sky, and

he is quite actively using and fpv drones, and artillery, well, artillery units, so there is no need to relax, the fact that we stopped them now, but as experience shows, the enemy regroups and tries to go forward again, yes, mr. colonel, well, and accordingly , maryan, most of all the enemy there could also to regroup, the situation there is quite difficult. i promise you, the enemy is there, well, now he is focusing more on novomykhaivka, but he is also trying to advance in the areas of georgiyivka and pobeda and marinka, 15 attacks of the past day were repulsed, also some activation near staromaiskyi, there the enemy made one unsuccessful attempt to improve tactical situation in zaporizhzhia. to the west of the willow, there were two such attacks, which, let's say, is now

a trend, that due to the increase in sanitary and irreversible losses, as well as the cooling, the number of russian servicemen who refuse to go on the offensive, that is , they are willing to stand on the defensive, do not want to go on the offensive for assault actions, because even a slight injury. with frost and the current level of field medicine in the russian federation, it can and does in most cases end in death, to stimulate the so-called assault actions , representatives of the high command of the russian federation come to such units, well, as incentives, they can offer intimidation, threats of shootings, physical violence and humiliation, such as moral and physical. that is, landing in some pits are bare, and so on. oh, those are

the refusers, i'm sorry, marta, those are the refusers or the refusers. here we are talking about freshly demobilized russian interventionists, or maybe we are talking about all their zk units of the storm z type and so on. they are different, the fact is that, for example, newly mobilized people who have just arrived at the front, they do not yet understand where they have gone, they... do not see the same desires, but those who went to one or two are already refusing or three assaults and somehow survived in some way, and they are already afraid to go there, because they have seen before it what leads to it. mr. oleksandr, if it is still possible, please report and comment on everything that can be commented on the repulse of russian assaults near the robot, near the robot, yes. well, the enemy is not very active there at the moment, last day there were two attempts

to advance, these were small, let’s say , groups of infantry, well, for now everything has been repulsed, uh, well , and finally, mr. colonel, to finish the topic with those russian, so -called defectors, if we talk, for example, about the approximate number of people. that is, are these units or maybe there is a battalion of a dozen such people, i don’t know , or is it in general, well, because the key story is how widespread this phenomenon is, it depends on the unit and, well, on some contingent , i would even say that some prisoners sometimes rebel more than well, let's say the ordinary ones who did not sit, well, that's it. and what kind of statistics can be called accurate for how many people? well

, about 3:40 a.m. ago, somewhere around 40, that is, a whole company left the trenches on their own accord and tried to run away with weapons from, well, somewhere to the side, to the side, to the side crimea, well, there was information that if they were caught and they tried to bring them back, for example, they did not try to be captured, but the defectors turned themselves in, or they were being watched by their own, i don’t know, there are different detachments of them, well, but for... the last four days 30 people surrendered in different ways, that is, sometimes they are the remnants of assault groups, which, well, a group goes, for example, 10 people, seven or eight people died, and two or, well, one usually follow the quadcopters to our positions, that is, our

uav operators they are led to surrender in captured, sometimes our... let's say, reconnaissance groups or assault units are taken by surprise at some positions, they surrender in different ways, some go out according to the agreement on the program i want to live, that is, it is different here, but mostly they surrender in battle. thank you, mr. oleksandr. oleksandr shtopun, the spokesman of the united press center of the defense forces of the tavria direction, the colonel was in touch with us and now we will have a few minutes ' break, after that we will get back to you. pain can become an obstacle. walk up the stairs, not with my knees. for pain in the knees, try it long time cream long-acting cream relieves pain, reduces swelling and improves joint mobility. with long-lasting cream. you can also walk. dolgit is the only yellow cream for joint pain. with

well, informational marathon of the tv channel in rozpol at 10:30. today , an extremely important meeting between the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi and the lithuanian president gitanos nauseda took place in lithuania, respectively, and we will analyze it, in particular, in the coming minutes. ihor chelenko, a political expert, is already with us connection welcome, mr. igor, to espresso. and the first question. glory, and the first question, of course, will concern the press conference of both presidents. statements from both the president of lithuania and the ukrainian head of state, and for example, what i remember most is that zelensky actually repeated once again that it is not about freezing the war and pressure from our partners neither, but on the other hand , we notice a decrease in the trend of military financial support and so on, so i wanted to

i would like to ask your assessment of all the events , how do you describe this whole situation for yourself now, is this topic really overheated in ukrainian society right now with possible negotiations, with a possible freezing of the war, and actually there are no prerequisites to talk about it now, well, actually ... as far as i 'm concerned, of course, the citizens, as at the beginning of last year they were overheated by the topic of the offensive, now people are overheated by the topic, precisely, the possibility of freezing, well, i wouldn't say freezing, you know that, such a proxy truce, which can happen, to which individual western countries are inclined, we will not specify now, but from individual countries, it is really now... such signals may go, including some inaction or a delay in providing aid, but in general, of course, today kyiv has further

support of our friends, baltic countries, countries , for example, scandinavia, very strong support now, surprisingly, the support of germany, which from... in fact, from month to month, it is getting stronger, although the exception here is not the provision of taurus missiles, but that is not less, so we really see a certain one now a duel, an understanding of how to proceed, and it is obvious that kyiv is now objectively more difficult, and we feel this now both by the nature of the visits, and again by the decisions that have not yet been made, as at the level of... the us congress , as well as at the level of the european council regarding the support of our state, and we really, we are now at a certain point of bifurcation, which

prescribes the scenario for us for the entire year 2024, so far it is not clear how exactly this will happen, but i note that still i think that our partners, at least some of them, are now trying to find the strength to that... to give ukraine the last such powerful push so that our defense forces could show themselves on the battlefield, so that ukraine could enter the negotiations from a position of strength, this is exactly the disposition that , for example, official washington seeks to obtain , because now it is quite clear that putin , through his lobbyists, is trying to push the topic of the capitulation of our state once again, but... at the same time, we see that a number of certain backroom movements are taking place, this is especially felt in the field of the global rooster,

against the background of the events in the arab states, if you take , for example, at the beginning of december last year, after putin's unexpected visit to the united arab emirates and saudi arabia, strange things began to happen, well, from a point of view. further construction and calendar. we also saw on december 16 a secret meeting regarding the ukrainian peace plan in saudi arabia, which became known just a few days ago, then we saw the record release of our military and civilians in early january, which was quite a surprise, especially after such exchanges did not happen starting from... from the month of august, but nevertheless, they took place with the mediation of the united arab emirates, and now, in general, everything that is happening, as far as i'm concerned, we see now two parallel, conditional peace

tracks, on the one hand ukraine is trying to win support, together with the j7 countries, for its peace plan involving the global south, but at the same time, russia is using the countries of the global south to put ukraine at the immediate table of transitions, in the middle with the russian federation, where the russian federation will have, well, a position of strength, and ukraine does not want to allow this, so i think that now this diplomatic struggle will continue, well, at least we will see it actively now, for example, during the meeting in davos, where another meeting will be held in line with the ukrainian peace plan, i think , that many countries of the global south will express on the one hand, of course , support for ukraine's position, but on the other... side may also express putin's position, so now everything is progressing on this topic. mr. igor, look,

i have something like that, maybe a little. smaller the question, well, but in my opinion it is extremely symptomatic and important, that is how we understand davos with davos, the washington summit, god forbid , we may live to see it, as they say, the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi spoke by phone yesterday with the president of poland, andrzej dudu, as far as i am concerned i understand, this has not happened for some time, when , so to speak, there were emotional conversations and a certain misunderstanding. and then there was the whole shameful story with the blocking of the ukrainian border and the ukrainian-polish border by polish carriers and so on and so forth. so on, and here i am quoting our president: our common border should be a real european border, a border of unity , there should be no borders between our peoples, the head of the ukrainian state expressed his gratitude for the consistent unwavering support of ukraine from poland as a constant ally of our country on

the way before joining... and nato , poland's support for the eu's historic decision to open negotiations with ukraine was noted, they exchanged views on the washington summit, and emphasized that the interaction between ukraine and poland is an important element of the common european house, convinced that the future of ukraine and poland lies in unity, mutual support and mutually beneficial cooperation, you believe in this or that formula, that is, we reconciled back then. relations are developing in a sinusoidal way, and on the one hand, of course, we are now on the rise, but on the other hand, we must remember that duda's party is now in the opposition, all the problems that continue to happen on the border now, they have passed on to the new tusk's government, and just then an interesting situation is happening, we see from one side statements, for example, by tusk himself, or there by

the minister of foreign affairs sikorskyi. which they represent the civil platform there, and on the other side there are other government officials , members of the coalition, for example, the polish peasant party, and we see problems now along the line with the minister of agrarian policy , the minister of infrastructure, and god be with them, with those ministers of infrastructure, this small story, the presidents talked, sir - here the nuance goes that it was duda who removed the burden from the general government. that is, after pis is no longer in power, we understand that moreover, duda's term is coming to an end, his second term, and he must go down in history, not as a person who had a conflict with his neighbors, he must go down in history seriously, so now he will do everything to restore our bilateral relations. but it is clear that certain mercantile things remain in relation to the same blocking

of the border, but tepe, now peace will say: that these are the problems of the tusk government specifically, that is true, these are now the problems of the tusk government, let the tusk government decide, on the other hand, if you would be absolutely right to bring up this story, so to speak, that andrzej duda no longer decides as much as he once did, and at the same time, so to speak, the new government, and tusk and so on, they have now manifested their ukrainianness, pro-ukrainianism, well then accordingly, what is breaking, the ice is breaking, well, gradually yes, gradually yes, but it is necessary... to speed up this process, because today the pace is unsatisfactory. where you can speed up, briefly. it can be speeded up through effective negotiations, and not by flip-flopping in internal polish politics between members coalition and now, when the peasant party is simply protecting its own polish farmers, it is necessary to remind them that they are also members of the european union, and it is necessary to fulfill the corresponding requirements at the eu level. thank you, ihor chelenko, a political expert was in touch with us, well,

you made us nervous. you understand, such a heated discussion has come out, but now we will have news from the press, so we will pass the floor to anna eva melnyk, who has already prepared a fresh issue from the news editorial office, so we will pass the floor to you anya, well, tell me what will happen now, what now we will find out with our viewers. congratulations, colleagues, thank you for your work, the news team is still working, we will tell you about the most important things, and i will start with the fact that lithuania has approved a new aid package for our country, what exactly we will receive, details later. package worth 200 million euros, lithuania approved long-term aid to ukraine, the country's president gitana snauseda said during a press conference with volodymyr zelenskyi that all...
