if a ukrainian private military company concluded a contract with a foreign customer, then this is the responsibility, payment of services, this is the responsibility of the foreign customer exclusively, if a ukrainian private military company, for example, goes on a business trip, i call it a business trip, goes on a business trip, for example, to burkina beans, and she goes on a business trip. of the state, of course, first of all, such a business trip must be financed by the state, because we work in the interests of the state, after that there may be other financing options, but for for us to have a start abroad in the interests of the state, the state should pay for it, if we are talking now in the conditions of war, full-scale war with russia,

private military companies in ukraine, on the territory of ukraine. yes, i understand that this is a very unpopular opinion, but it should be financed by the state, you see, a private military company is not a beggar who should go around asking for money. do you want us to do something, some specific action? well, i can't, i have people, i now have people in ukraine whom i can use, and they... want to work for us, but i personally do not have the resources to bring in these specialists, the problem is that i have the specialists, and these specialists are currently under contract with the armed forces of ukraine, but specialists work as storm troopers, that is, they go and storm the trenches, and i believe that this is an inappropriate use of resources, in my opinion. there is

another proposal, i have already made this proposal, some people have heard me, but there are no sanctions, you see, there are no sanctions so that i can to take these people and use them somewhere in some other way, i don't have any money, funding, or authority to take these people and use them somewhere for their purpose, that 's the problem. i want to tell you that this is not the first case, because i watched, i saw how we use, this is not a criticism, maybe some experts, or experienced people will say that andrei, you are wrong and so on, but this is my personal thought, i saw how we use use ssso operators on the assaults of the same trenches, and now i have a question, if the ssso operator from ours also dies in a frontal attack. parties and e

banal mobilized parties of the russian federation. how much time and money do we need , er, time, it is very important, to train another sso operator who accidentally died in frontal contact with a mobilized from the russian federation, and how much time and money do we need to restore this mobilized from the russian side federations at the front in ukraine, do you understand? we need to train the ssso operator as little as possible six months, and the russians will replace this mobilized tomorrow. what am i talking about, we use our resources, sometimes, sometimes, i'm not criticizing, again, this is a statement of facts, we use our resources inappropriately. i have people now sitting in ukraine, i can use them in other directions, but they just go and storm the trenches, these are people who have combat experience. 20

years, well, that is, in fact , you are talking about what if these people who are trained by your company, who have considerable experience, were used according to the complexity tasks, it would be much more effective than simply using them as stormtroopers that repulsed one plantation near avdiyivka, and we understand that then it does not correspond to the potential that is embedded in these people, which was accumulated and acquired over the years. filigree opportunities for combat operations, then the question arises how to find, i am 100%, how to find a way out of such a labyrinth, so that , relatively speaking, the heads of private companies have more opportunities to interact with the military leadership, to obtain some tasks that they solve comprehensively, relying on their capabilities, and not scattered among the storming units of the existing brigades. you see,

we, we, you and i talked for a long time about this matter, i talked with mr. bodrak, and with other people, and we always talk. about problems, problems , these are the problems, we have problems, we need to ask the question in a different way, what needs to be done in order to solve these problems, and in order to solve these problems, we need the government to listen to us, i myself, you know, because i have no leverage, no contacts, and so on. i also wrote a letter to the former president poroshenko, and i addressed to president zelenskyi, i have a letter in response, and they are writing to me from the office of the president of ukraine: we inform you that your application with a proposal to use the capabilities of private military companies,

in particular, the limited liability company megaconsulting groups to perform tasks related to the sphere of national security and defense of the state were sent to the apparatus of the national council... of security and defense of ukraine and the ministry of defense of ukraine with a request to consider and inform you about the results. that's the end of it, that is, we don't have a lobbyist who can come, i'm sorry, and say that this is what needs to be done, and then we need to assemble a working group, but experts need to be invited to this working group, you understand. you have to invite someone from the nsdc, you have to invite us. it is necessary to invite someone from the general staff, from the ministry of defense, or, as it is called, the profile, profile committee, if i am not mistaken, of the verkhovna rada of ukraine, and to discuss, we have an urgent issue, we need to discuss together whether

it is expedient, and if it is expedient, how can we use private military companies, if it is not expedient, then we need some arguments, but it should be decided collegially. and not like we have in ukraine, some analyst said, i am against it, because the state should have a monopoly on force, and we listened to him and said, well, he is against it and so on, all these conversations about what private military companies are prohibited in ukraine, they are absolutely groundless, there is no law of ukraine banning private military companies, we have a full-scale war now, if we have such an urgent issue, in my opinion, we should gather a working group. group to talk, and i am sure that we could find, find a solution, but i don't know how to do it, because i wrote to zelensky, i wrote to umerov, i wrote to zaluzhny, i wrote to kulebi, i wrote to naeva,

answers to my letters no, that is, it is necessary that some person comes and says, it is necessary to consider it, i want you such a very good one example, if... there is still time to give, it is very important, i was lucky to work and be personally acquainted in america with the american general of the armed forces of the united states of america, david petraeus. and when the fighting started in afghanistan and iraq and the united states of america realized that they were losing, david petraeus came to the... president of the united states, and he said this: he said, "mr. president, we can't just raise bets, partly, there today a little, tomorrow a little bit, the day after tomorrow a little bit." we have to put everything on the line. in english it

's called "all" because if we don't put everything on the line, we're going to lose this war. she was a very brave person because she just came to the president and expressed her... opinion, i want to tell you about this that there is even such a book, it is called all in, here it is, i took it with me, the author is general david petraeus, they called it that , all the bets are on the line, and it turns out that we are now at war, and we are not placing all the bets on the line, but the americans put only because someone attacked the pentagon and the vol trade center, people didn't enter the country on tanks to... they didn't torture, destroy, rape the population, it's just that the world trade center and the pentagon were attacked by self-absorbed people, and they said , that it is necessary to put all our bets on the line, that is, we must use all the available forces and means that we have, and if we

do not have these forces and means, then we must create them, and they created the pmk, but we hesitate, sir andrei, thank you very much for the inclusion, at my disposal. resources and analytical resources, this is what i am trying to contribute to the promotion of the idea related to private companies, i hope that we will continue to do so and find such like-minded people. in power, in order to come to an understanding of whether or not it is necessary to put an end to di and form a new strategy after that, but the fact that everything must be put on the line in these harsh conditions is absolutely true. thank you very much for the inclusion, for your explanation, i will remind our viewers that it was andrii kepkalo, the founder and head of the private military company omega consulting group. and then we will talking about guns, more specifically about the civilian firearms bill, i have a lot of comments on this bill, and we'll talk about it in the context of how it positively or rather negatively affects

the training of our military, particularly the training of our snipers, but about it after the advertising and information block. hello, woman, what to do when there is a liver problem, you need to take alohol, but what about gallstones? alohol, it protects the liver and gall bladder. the natural components of alochol contribute to the normalization of liver function and... with care and respect for liver and bile. vinyl agency presents on january 22 at 19:30 on the stage of the lviv opera. taras chubai and songs that all ukraine sings along to. the special guest of the concert is the lviv men's academic choir chapel dudaryk. tickets at karabaas.com. live sound. oh, and got wet. would you like some tea? mom, dad, what should i do to avoid getting sick? c3 zinc and the main one - quercitin to strengthen blood vessels. just

still in the context of the discussion of the draft law on weapons, which is currently in the second reading to be discussed in our parliament, many nuances, unpleasant, as for me, nuances, and we will now talk about this with our next guest, we are joined by yurii chornomorets, doctor of philosophy, volunteer and sniper, mr. yurii, i congratulate you, i am glad to see you and hear good afternoon everyone, i was going to talk about sniping , but i think that will be the second part of our conversation, because first, after all, the story with the firearms bill, it worries me a little, to put it mildly, because it cannot be in the conditions, when there is a war, we we are trying, aren't we there, the authorities are trying to tighten the nuts from the point of view of the fact that the use of weapons becomes so complicated, i know that you have read this bill in detail... but you know, all these painful moments are connected with this bill, would like to hear your opinion,

do we need such a law in the conditions of war? well, i want to say that the original intention of the draft law was, accordingly, to allow citizens to have wider opportunities to own weapons, and first of all it is for self... protection, and secondly, again for the protection of the homeland in the conditions that exist today, but as a result of work in the specialized committee, as a result of the work of the ministry of internal affairs, we have very strange such amendments, er, which are stricter than even russian legislation, and which are simply frankly are, well, let's say, such stabs in the back for... today's ukrainian defense, that's the first thing that catches the eye, if,

let's say directly, that according to this draft law, for example, you cannot withdraw, as an instructor, you can not output the sniper group to the training ground, the more so to the training ground in the neighboring region and so on, you have to put a dedicated mia and so on, suddenly, it means that someone pretended that you... didn't do it or something else you are immediately arrested, of course, it is very easy to lose what your notification to the ministry of internal affairs is and then the person is guilty. after all, we see that, for example, you are a sniper, for example, in the sumy region, yes, and you are, for example, a part of the armed forces that fight and protect the border, but at night they pick you up and throw you into

another area where you close the enemy breakthrough accordingly, you fight heroically. then it turns out that since you did it with your personal sniper weapon, i emphasize that a very significant part of snipers fight with their personal sniper weapon, we only gave 241 of the 244 rifles that we provided to the defense forces of ukraine for personal use, here it turns out, that you are already a violator of the law, and you must bear a very strict responsibility. for this, of course, which is absurd, because training becomes impossible, combat work becomes impossible, what makes it impossible is that you, for example , because of your comrades-in-arms who have e -certificates of the same caliber, simply hand them over to the guys, that means ammunition to the front, you are already to blame, that's how totalitarian

tendencies are, they are very strange to me, that's why what ah all this... trying to make it impossible at all, actually in ukraine, for example, sniping, impossible constant training of the civilian population, all this naturally undermines the defense capability is very serious, and then there are very absurd requirements for the possession of short-barreled weapons, a lot snipers cannot be carried with them for self-defense, respectively... well, i don't know , some kind of arch and something else, and they would like to have a glock 17, 19 or 45 glock with them, but, let's say, get it it is very difficult, and very often people buy out, wait until they are awarded with this weapon, then they are either not awarded, or they are awarded there with a weapon that they already had

some kind of aunt and so on, people do not have that weapon... they wanted , for which they have already paid money, well, in the professionalism of these people, in the fact that they will not to use this weapon right and left, it is clear that there is no doubt, at the same time, some people, whom i do not know, are absolutely immature, they start there in chernivtsi, like the son of a judge, to shoot in the air from an awarded weapon, and now i suggest... that such awardees , they have been there since the age of 18, in fact, to award a military man, on the contrary, it becomes impossible, because there is supposed to be all kinds of feasting, pleasure, and all this is absurd, all this is stupid, and by the way, this systemically, because, for example, a few years ago we did a weapons repair workshop and

from ammunition, there were only one requirement. and let's say, then we saw that yes, it is, let's say, well, very difficult to pull, but it is possible. now, when it turned out that we are already doing it, we urgently need it in one of the regions of ukraine, and accordingly, it is really related to the military unit, to the combat brigade, here it turned out that there are such strict requirements for what it should be this workshop and so on, then... that is, not only is there an absurd law, but there are all kinds of prescriptions of the most diverse, bureaucratic, which are at the bottom are adopted, also, they also make it more brutal, and accordingly make impossible very often the development of sniping, the development of the population's ability to self-defense, this is absurd, if we look at bulgaria, when a law was passed that

all people have the right to carry a gun, there are women there, well... anyone, then crime immediately fell 10-12 times, that is, yes, there are excesses, of course, and so on, but the psychology of the population changes very immediately, and even i would say, well, we should have stopped a long time ago fear if on the armed population of kyiv region met the russian federation, it would have been a completely different war, and if we had not had so many problems, let's say, the first day in gostomel, there were so many problems and the like, that is, it is already clear here, obviously, in practice we understood that we should be like in texas, that everyone can own a gun. and accordingly, every responsible citizen really has the right to defend his own home and

homeland, including his own weapons. then, when we talk about these amendments to the draft law, it is actually possible to claim that they carry systemic risks for our defense capability, because firstly they limit our training system, they minimize, relatively speaking, the readiness of the population to fight the enemy with various small arms, and then the question arises, who is then in the parliament, relatively speaking, is pushing this bill, because a significant number of reports actually come from the ministry of internal affairs, well, somehow it does not look entirely logical and appropriate, because the ministry of internal affairs also forms brigades, fights on the front line, so why is it now in this do you have many such critical things in the bill that are actually unacceptable from the point of view of defense capability? understanding, why is it so clearly manifested in the parliament now? well, it is completely incomprehensible to me, especially now it is the anniversary of the death of denys

monastyrsky and they are all very proud of the fact that he made the decision to distribute automatic weapons from cars to anyone in kyiv, well, if, well, we remember, this is a controversial decision, then , when volunteers, military came, let's say,... territorial defense, like ours, and let's say they didn't get these machines, and it is not known who took them there on the shell, and they needed something else for the picture, i don't understand this shuffling from side to side, actually, and accordingly you have an extremely simple the thing is, yes, you have a conscious population, this population is a nation that protects itself in... and it is clear that you are quite capable in the modern informational world, let's say, to avoid such excesses that weapons are there in

crime. we remember how one of the volunteers was shot there by bandits, ee at the door, respectively, from the weapon that the convict received, respectively, through your ministry of internal affairs, and from... accordingly, he used this keltek 9 mm weapon and, accordingly , shot an azov volunteer with this carbine, and here, accordingly, well, an extremely, very simple situation , if you would, put yourself in order, even according to the existing rules, let it work and let people already train, let people therefore acquire a profession and so on and so on... think about the system, how you can really liberalize, let's say, all this situation, weapons, more allow people, and

accordingly, so that people are really, well, responsible for the future of the country, not just in the way , say, well, at the moment they are responsible, but in the way that they in israel are responsible, that they know that either at home they have weapons and ... they will immediately go to fight, or, let's say, they know where the nearest point is, where to get this weapon, and it is his very rifle, shot by him, with which he accordingly knows all its features, and he will fight with it, because you understand , then here are all these recipes for handing out machines, well , then they gave out machines, and what, and then in we went to the quarry there, shot, because it was unclear even how he shot. well actually it deflects to the right, to the left, up, down, all that, well, the weapon, it's a precision tool that you have to have, you

have to set it up so that it doesn't have any flaws, and accordingly, if, well, you must apply it if there is a danger to your country, all the more absurd are all these amendments, that if they... will simply destroy the sniper business in ukraine, then , accordingly, for this alone, these amendments are all should be thrown into the trash , because snipers do a great job, accordingly, 12% of losses among russians are the work of snipers, and accordingly, at the moment, to make of a sniper that he has no right to do anything, accordingly, neither a step to the right, nor a step to the left with what not with a rifle, not with cartridges, and accordingly, well, some absurd situation, which, i don't know, they copied from some south korea, because

even in russia it is so absurd. there are no rules regarding the possession of weapons, mr. yuri, rather, probably from north korea, we literally have two minutes, i would like you to tell us about what we are currently collecting funds for, what you are currently purchasing, where to donate, because the work you are doing now for sniping is extremely important, tell us what we are collecting for, where to donate , well we are now collecting for very good super rifles, because we managed to get far ... several pieces we managed to attract, each of them is a super rifle, and accordingly, before we had the record with the owner of aubrey, this very rifle was the first in the world and, accordingly , 3.5 km once, respectively, fell from it, accordingly, we also got vitrixes in 375

caliber. tried the actual 408 caliber, well, we still think that we will still carry it in the 375th, and we also carry a large batch of barrettes in 416 caliber, new parrettes, it is a very cool weapon, so everyone is fascinated by it, because it is very long-range, for the destruction of the enemy's manpower, there, respectively, 2.5 km and so on, from a cold barrel, from the first shot, you can... hit, and it's very cool, as well, it really excites us, because the 375- caliber , as in the 50 bmg caliber, turned out to be extremely accurate, accordingly we are also very satisfied with this, we are trying to give sniper groups to those who can pull such long-range high-precision rifles and already, let's say from 338 caliber

vychev... everything he could vychev, we are trying to give these rifles, accordingly of a larger caliber, and you see that the come back alive fund also collects very correctly for whole groups there with machines, with everything, as we usually do, and they collect there for 100 cadexes in 375 caliber, i don’t really like it is clear what this bed will show later in as a result, but... at least these rifles will be there, and if things go bad, they can be reworked later, and accordingly, we are still paying a lot of attention to the fact that any sniper group is large, it is completely defenseless if it does not have own drones, and accordingly the ratio is from six to 10 snipers and,

accordingly, four drone operators. which work, because both aerial reconnaissance is constant and drone strikes, and it shows itself very well, this is just such a combination, if snipers now go out without drones, then it is extremely high risk and it's not productive when they come out with drones, thank you very much for these clear explanations, about the bill, i think we will be heard, this bill will not be passed in the format that it is currently pro... proposed, thank you very much for the work you do for our armed forces, i will remind the viewers that you can donate on facebook, there are the details of yuriy chornomorets, which can be used to purchase rifles for our armed forces, i will remind our viewers that my interlocutor was yuriy chornomorets is a theologian, a volunteer and a sniper, and then stay tuned to the espresso channel, where there will be a lot more new information.

it's 6 p.m. in ukraine, and to your attention is a news release on the espresso tv channel in the studio. koval, welcome to all viewers. the russians continue to terrorize kherson. today they attacked the dnipro district. damaged apartment buildings. a 60-year-old woman died in her own home, reported the head of the region oleksandr prokudin. a 16-year-old boy received an explosive injury and leg injury. he is being prepared for surgery. military intelligence received a mi-2 helicopter, which is intended for...
