as ukraine for a long time everyone thought that our issues would be solved for us, until the war started, and ukraine was forced to stand up, take the lead and start this battle against this universal evil of putin, maybe this very situation will improve the situation in europe, first first of all, in security, and secondly, is it mobilizing, mobilizing society, mobilizing politics, or are there already signs that european leaders are really mobilizing and becoming firmer in their decisions? well, there are different currents in europe, you see that in many countries are winning far-right political forces, or they do not win, but their rating increases, as, for example, in germany, or in the netherlands, at the same time, or in slovakia, where fico won and created his government, at the same time, in poland, for example , donald tusk won, which government, the coalition he heads, and it is obvious that tusk's position is a position for the unity of the european union, for supporting ukraine, so of course we depend on it.

political life in europe, but the germans, for example, will definitely demonstrate leadership and care about security, which they already now they do in addition, there is a country that is not in the european union, but that has signed a security treaty with us with poland, this is great britain, although it is in europe and influences european processes, so i think that these scales will sway, here a lot depends on us, because we have to demonstrate, first of all, our readiness to talk about ours. it will not be so easy for us to integrate into the european union, for example, with our powerful and strong agricultural sector even during the war, and we we see that someone is already opposed to this, we will definitely need to think about our integration into nato and european security structures, and also bring the structure of our army, which is strong, experienced, currently one of the strongest in europe, but still to the system of nato management standards, and this has not yet been done, but it will need to be done, the same applies to... criteria,

in particular, freedom of speech, the rule of law, the fight against corruption, we also have a lot of work to do here, but that that europe understood the importance of ukraine for ourselves, the clear importance of the victory over putin, including , of course, thanks to the heroism of the armed forces of ukraine, this is very important for us and obviously opens up new perspectives for us. well, i'm here already to the point, since we were talking about international aid from the european union, by the way, today we will include our correspondent from brussels, so we and tomorrow it will be, i already mixed it all up, tomorrow. will be, but i will move on to support from the united states of america, the situation there is not easy, clearly, such statements are made active politicians, conscious in the united states of america, who insist that help is needed, william burns, the head of the cia, said that if without help, if there is no help, it will be the biggest own goal in the history of the united states, if ukraine does not receive aid, but today the deputy secretary of state of the united states of america visited kyiv. how

iconic it is, is it a signal that you can still be certain that you did not come, as they say, empty-handed? we'll see if she 's here, but it's definitely good that she is came because the united states of america, the biden administration, pay attention to the development of our relations and support of ukraine, it is of course very important for us, and therefore every such visit is a plus for us, the more there will be, the better, just like ours. the visits of our leaders to the united states of america should of course be more, because no matter what happens in the united states of america, it remains one of our main allies, now the european union is trying to increase its role in helping of ukraine, but america will not disappear anywhere and will continue to be our ally, no matter who actually wins the elections there. so, in the recent history of ukraine, the key decisions, well most of the key decisions were made by the parliament itself, and the position of the parliament, its stability, it is mobilized. saved ukraine more than once,

let's remember this and the proclamation of the act on state sovereignty and independence of ukraine, this is the 14th year, when the decapitated ukraine survived thanks to the parliament, the executors of the duties were elected the president, well, the parliament actually played a key role, and that is why ukrainians are probably a little worried about the statements of, say, david rahami, who says that many deputies from the servant of the people want to draw up mandates, which can lead to... unpredictable processes, and this can be said , that this is a parliamentary crisis, or is it just words behind which there is nothing, well, politicians can sometimes say something with a certain purpose, it is not necessary that 100 deputies want to run away and give their mandates, how effective and efficient is the ukrainian parliament today in this it is not an easy time, are there threats that it may not be so effective, please, well , we have a governance crisis in the country, an attempt...

by the current government, which won the majority, to effectively reduce the role of the parliament to zero, it is obvious, and we see that deputies are not allowed. engage in diplomacy, parliamentary diplomacy, and this, by the way , is a very interesting topic, because the draft of the polish national security strategy separately states that the role of members of parliament, the role of parliamentary diplomacy in order to spread among the politicians of other countries correct narratives, defending the interest of one's country is extremely important, and everywhere deputies are such a key unit of those who represent the country, including abroad, in our country they do the opposite, they say that deputies can do something harm, because they begged, they can to quarrel with the current government, although abroad everyone is trying to speak with one voice, and now it is not an election period, the main thing is to win the war, that is the current government, it does not understand and does not realize the role of the parliament and tries to undermine it, despite it is the parliament that accepts

budget, it is the parliament that allocates every penny received by every ukrainian soldier, officer , as well as every ukrainian teacher, if there is no parliament, then there will be no money, because the parliament is the basis of democracy in everyone. country, we remain a parliamentary-presidential republic, and the role of the parliament, the parliament is the power of the country, if there is no power, then the country does not exist, the fact that the monomajority won, where there is such a large number of irresponsible people who are ready to give up and leave power or escape and not to take responsibility at the most important and most difficult time in the history of ukraine is obviously a shame, and for this there will be political responsibility to those political forces, to that political force that created this monomajority, despite the fact that, i think... that when david arahamiya says that this must be resisted, i am in solidarity with him here, because of course, if we are not a democratic country, there will be no help from either the european union or the united states of america, and we are a democratic country only if we have a strong parliament, as in

every democratic country, so the fact that people came there who are constantly accused of some or other crimes, who want to run away, leave their jobs, is very bad, and partly this ukrainian irresponsibility. society, which voted for such people, these are related things, and i believe that this war will make our society stronger, our politicians, and we will no more than the people make such mistakes in order to elect such people, well, we also have a little time, but i would like to talk about two such important bills to talk, the director of the institute of demography alla libanova said that there will no longer be 40 million ukrainians, or they will not be ukrainians, well, in the near future, i mean, and here , of course, the question of multiple citizenship is becoming relevant, because many people ... take ukrainian citizenship, let's say, come to ukraine, or develop a business, or do something else, or simply they will want to come to ukraine, because they will be interested in building a new reality after the war, let's say, after victory, but what are the threats in this multiple citizenship, do they exist? no , why many people , citizens

of the european union, the united states of america, canada, switzerland, japan can accept multiple citizenship in our country, those people who come to work, as a rule, are citizens of third countries, and in our country they will not have such able to will only have the opportunity to get ukrainian citizenship, if they probably give up theirs , i don’t even know that, but for these citizens of these countries, they, as the law says, the draft law, they can easily get it at any moment citizenship without doing anything for it, not even passing language or culture exams. russia can easily take advantage of this and find several million of its supporters there, who will receive citizenship and vote as putin says, for that parliament and for that president that the russian federation wants, there are a lot of dangers here, i don't think they will stand in in our conditions, in conditions of war, when we actually, well , remain a poor country, i do not think that there will be queues of citizens of the european union who want to accept ukrainian citizenship, or perhaps they will want to privatize land there, as citizens of ukraine, because

foreigners are prohibited, or use some of our resources for their own enrichment, then maybe they will want to accept such citizenship, but there are of course a lot of insecurities, about which i said earlier, are there any dangers left in the draft law on mobilization, which has already been submitted to the verkhovna rada of ukraine and will be considered in the near future, it has only been submitted, i have not yet fully studied this project, obviously i believe that the methodology itself preparation of this project is incorrect, because the president is responsible for mobilization, and it was necessary to immediately develop an effective project under the leadership of the president and immediately adopt it, because people in the army are definitely needed. at the same time, this draft law should promote mobilization and encourage people to go and defend their homeland, and not scare them and introduce regulations that will force them to flee the country altogether, or never to return here. this is a very tricky balance, but definitely this balance must be observed, there must

be effective recruiting, they don't have human rights should be limited, at the same time there should be electronic accounting, which we have now allegedly introduced by voting for the law on electronic and electronic registers, although we had another law on... registers and if desired , the government could make the registers for conscripts and military servicemen were employed from the first day of the full-scale invasion, or even earlier, without any law, solely by decree based on the existing law. and here comes the problem that when you are somehow unpopular in society things, every branch of government, be it the president , be it the government, be it the deputies of the verkhovna rada , want to throw it off themselves and shift the responsibility to someone else, and this leads to the poor quality of the project, if the president had developed a quality project under his leadership, he was submitted, and without all these discussions, the harm of people hiding or talking about this law, i think it would be much better and more effective, and the law certainly needs to be studied. thank you very much for your comments. what joined, mykola knyazhytskyi, the people's deputy of ukraine was in touch with us, briefly, but in essence, we discussed

the most important domestic political and foreign political topics, now we will discuss more military topics, military results of the day: serhiy zgurets, director of the defense express agency, i congratulate serhiy. vasyl, i congratulate our viewers, and today in our water section we will talk about the new long-range weapons for the armed forces of ukraine from the americans, and why there are no such rocket bombs in the arsenal of the us army. about the first statistics regarding the use of fpv drones on the battlefield and ours forces of both the enemy and the enemy, there are indicative trends and about the situation on the front line itself in a conversation with our military, about all this in a moment. so, the pentagon confirmed today that new long-range models will be delivered to the country. weapons are high-precision gdb ammunition or rocket bombs for our

hymers and mlrs launchers, and the politico publication even wrote that on january 31 these weapons will arrive on the battlefield, maybe it is, maybe not, but that in fact this weapon can, that it in fact, this is a project that implemented by the american company booing and... the swedish sub, which was tested back in the 15th year, and structurally everything looks extremely simple, it is a combination of an aviation bomb, this bomb is equipped with a planning and guidance system with such wings that open after this bomb starts from the launcher and with the help of an unguided engine, then it goes on a trajectory and there it actually plans to the target... which was previously determined, this bomb is combined with wings by a special transition

device, and this is such a new weapon frankenstein is called glsdb, which means small diameter ground-launched bomb, and this symbiosis actually has impressive capabilities, why, because it's actually about a range of 150 km, compared to the fact that today we have samples of weapons somewhere from mlrs to. .. 90 km, if we do not count the atekams, of which we had only 20 pieces there, with a range of up to 150 km, this is great accuracy, these rocket bombs can hit the target with a deviation of only 90 cm, while these systems cannot be crushed by with the help of reb, as it now happens with individual examples of hymers, because the task was set before the developer, so that these ammunitions were not... such that they could be suppressed, and the actual power, this warhead on this rocket bomb weighs 90

kg, which is almost four times more than the warhead the hymars charge, combined with accuracy, is such a powerful symbiotic force, and the actual price of this thing, it turns out, is somewhere in the range of 60 thousand dollars, compared there with the hymers 100 00 projectile and compared to the cruise missile there. .. more than 1 million of these samples will actually be transferred to us now, the question arises in what quantity. the previous contract, which was signed in march, stipulated that 25 of these samples would be transferred initially, but then another 700 would be produced during the year . so i think, from 20 to 700, this is the batch that... in the near future our army should receive and use against the enemy, it is possible to destroy fortified

objects, bridges, point targets like launchers of the enemy's anti-aircraft missile systems, given the accuracy and power, this is an extremely effective weapon, and another point that i think ukraine should use, in fact, it is a sample of weapons that can be partially assembled or manufactured at our defense enterprises, of course, first of all, this is of interest the new... or old rocket engine used on these shells and which would be very nice to make at our facilities and thus provide a new component for strengthening. of the ukrainian armed forces, especially as our partners say about the fact that our defense industry should produce new models, so this model is quite acceptable in order to strengthen our capabilities and add such another long arm to the potential of the ukrainian army, further on we will talk about other types of weapons, because in addition to missile weapons , of course we

also need fpv drones, they now partially compensate for the lack of artillery and... what exactly is happening with this direction in combination with the situation on specific areas of the front, we will talk with our next guest, and now we are joined by the sergeant of the achilles attack drone company of the 92nd separate assault brigade, oles malyarevich, mr. oles, congratulations, but i think i made a mistake, because in fact now your unit is no longer a company, but a battalion. and the question arises, what does this mean for your unit and what needs to be done to make your battalion as effective as the company where you are currently serving? eh, i wish health, glory to ukraine, to all the viewers and to you, yes, today is the birthday of the achilles battalion, a year ago , by the decision of the chief commander zaluzhnyi, we became a company

strike defense complexes, currently already a battalion, this indicates that this kind of... these forces of the collective forces of ukraine are very important, and they are entrusted with a great task, which we, in principle , fulfill with honor, that is the flank where we now we are working, the south of bakhmutov, our task is to fully support our infantry units, artillery, we clear everything that moves in our direction, everything that drives, everything that crawls, there were cases when thanks to fpv drones, which a year ago were considered , we can say such civilians, destroyed up to 20 vehicles, here. indeed, it replaces the classic types of weapons and this direction must be developed, so now we are increasing five times and looking for new pilots, engineers, programmers, all of us, we need more and more smart people who want to win in this war with us. how should these smart people find your new battalion, what

is the best way to approach a potential prospect. contingent for your battalion, there are links in our social networks, it is easy to find, you kill the achilles heel there or les malyarevich, instagram, facebook or yury fedorenko, the commander, or just achilles, there are a lot of people on social networks now, we have achilles on the telegram channel and there is a link, what form you need to fill out to get to us, we have a very cool unit, you can say very young, our our combatant, senior lieutenant, battalion commander senior lieutenant, i will be there, the junior lieutenant will be behind you... 99% of our unit is civilians, and a very big thank you to the commander of the 92nd language brigade for giving us the chance and credit of trust of civilians to work effectively together with the military , and that's why we have this synergistic effect working very, very well in our brigade, sir, can you tell us a little more about

the situation in two parts of the front, it's precisely about bakhmut, which you mentioned, and about kupyanskman, where it's the same, i understand... .part of your unit is performing its basic task of destroying the enemy? and we are currently working exclusively in bakhmut, the south of bakhmut, we also help the brigades that are constantly working to the left and right of us, currently our task is defense, defense, the task is being carried out, no positions were lost, moreover, i will say that over the last day we have even slightly improved our positions, that is, the task of defense. this line is fully implemented. and i would like you to comment on some statistics. in fact, today we collected some data, based on the analysis of osinters, where they submitted data on the use of drones by the enemy and by our armed forces for six months. now we will see the first infographic showing the number of

fpv drones used against armored enemy targets. now there will be an infographic where blue shows our quantitative use of half-drones, red - the enemy's, that is, in fact, we are using much more half-drones against armored enemy targets and have better results. the second infographic concerns the use of drones against infantry, so here we actually see that... that the enemy has more directions for using drones than we do, and we see that there is an increase in the enemy's capabilities, precisely from the point of view of the tactics of use. and the third infographic concerns the use of fpv drones against fortifications , against trenches and so on, and here the enemy generally has a 10-fold advantage over there, 50 there,

relatively speaking, our drones, 500 for the enemy, this is for the period, well, half-yearly indicators, and these last columns - these are just the last months, can we really talk about the fact that now there is such a certain disparity that the enemy is using more. drones are used against fortifications, against manpower, and we use more samples of strike drones specifically against the enemy's armored vehicles and ground vehicles. and the tactics of using drones, bombers, in general, all the means that we have, such as shock absorbers, this is decided exclusively by the command of the unit that works on this aspect of the front. our front wing has combat tasks that must, for example, work, carry out remote mining, or there was a task to... for example, to suppress enemy artillery that was trying to deploy there and train our unit, but sometimes this happens, it is expensive , yes, it is expensive, you have to work on the infantry, which

is trying to climb into the positions of our infantry, then we save the lives of our infantrymen, and these strongholds, everything that intelligence finds, the command quickly decides by what means to destroy it, and we do it, we don't have such that we work there only by artillery, don't occupy us either. other things, no, we work united, we work as one, united such, you know, fire influence, and promptly, online, 24:7 we decide what to do against the enemy so that he is destroyed, that's how it is, now when we say that he has already passed there, well, relatively speaking, the first month of the time when there is a course taken to increase the number of fpi drones supplied to the armed forces, this ceiling is at least 1 million fpp drones. is it already felt in your supply, or are the volumes still the same as before the announcement of these guidelines?

well, i don't always have a positive attitude to such slogans, let's give a million drones there, a million here, it's not about quantity, it's about quality, drones must be of good quality, drones must be understood by specific manufacturers, who assemble them, because each drone, which falls on front, the pilot must... hold this drone in his hands, says: i saw this drone, we tested it, it flies, we use it all the time, if it is a new model of some kind, it must first be tested on the training ground, how does it behave with the bcs that we would have as a kit, so we have suppliers that we work with, there are new volunteers appearing, new suppliers, uh, that are handed over to us, we test and take into service or not take, a lot of drones , which cost the same 20 hryvnias, but it does not fly, that's it... it was just poorly assembled or they didn't think, they wanted faster, faster and did the wrong thing, it's definitely not about quantity, here only about quality, every drone is an expensive bc, you see, expensive bc,

expensive battery, it's very expensive to get to the right position , and it's dangerous in the pilots, that is, everything is thought out, and we try to make every drone work, every one flies, we use all the latest means, additional means, which... on drones, so that they fly over enemy slaves, that is, that's it a very serious question, and here it is not about the amount, but when there are situations when there is a real breakthrough in the enemy's equipment, we are ready for this, we have drones, we take responsibility for the fact that the lives of our units working next to us depend on our work, that is, everyone understands how important it is it is important, mr. olesya, but there is such a problem that, relatively speaking, there are more and more drones, and the frequency... resource is not rubber, and in fact, relatively speaking, it is necessary to hunt down those units that are guaranteed to destroy the enemy , guaranteed to get there

certain ranges and work there, or how it all happens now, let's go back to what i said, there is a command of the front line, where these combat encounters take place, and everyone understands who is flying, who is flying, on which clocks, on which wings, no one there... we learned a long time ago not to cross paths with other units, because we interfere with each other, that is, there were such cases that some unit there comes there xxx there alpha3, they work out, turn on the rap , all the other drones fall, they are alone there everything reaches them there, well, that was it, it was a mistake, it was before, at present we do not allow this, we try to organize everything very clearly, because it is all expensive and very important, everyone... who did not make it, is some kind of occupier who can leave or leave the positions of our guys girls the situation with the use of drones with night vision...

is there with cameras that allow you to perform combat missions at night, is this trend already becoming somewhat widespread in the arsenal that you currently have at your disposal? well , we work mostly during the day with fp drones and now they will be a day longer closer to spring to summer, at night we work as night bombers, somehow it turned out that way, but we also strive to have more... fpv drones with night vision, because this is a really effective thing, and there are that you have goals, you work and find the night, it’s six in the evening there, you can’t see anything, not even 5, and you have this one drone, there aren’t enough two with night vision to finish them off, so they don’t tank there pulled out, or their infantry did not run back, or forward, that's why it's expensive, somewhere around 700-900 dollars, the camera costs, the drone itself costs 500 dollars, and

the camera costs 700-900, but it... will definitely be in sufficient quantity, i would like to ask about what the premium promised mr. minister, there was some kind of resolution that now each brigade receives within 10 million hryvnias to meet its priority needs for the purchase of other types of equipment or something else, this is precisely this transition process taking into account these uniform taxes for the military and it seems that some brigades have already started these funds. use, this wave to did you get the hang of it or not yet? i will say that all the innovations that happen in the army , they immediately reach us, we are always pioneers in this regard, and there were cases when we worked well, our brigade commander comes to us and says: guys, well done, what are you doing it is necessary, we say this and that, okay, we purchase, that is, it is quickly resolved and the task to do it immediately goes there, we try to

respond very, very quickly to all... opportunities that appear in general, any and official and unofficial, that is, we are really very satisfied with this and it pleases me, since i was not a military person before, i have been in business all my life, and as you know, it comes out of the army to unite everything so that it goes, everything flew quickly and correctly, but sometimes it happens differently, unfortunately, not with us, thank god, well, it's good, and you mentioned that you are looking for operators? how difficult is it to be an aphidrone operator in terms of the number of combat missions that an operator can do there in one day per day, in particular because i was told that the maximum there are three to five flights in these glasses, then it is extremely difficult to fly, because the vestibular apparatus reacts quite hard to this new reality, which is connected with the use of fpv drones, and we are trying

to make sure that everyone... works narrow-profile, there is a pilot, he flies, there is an engineer, he makes a bull there, there is another engineer who prepares a drone, there is a technician who prepares a car, there are other technicians who are engaged in refueling there, overtaking something there, changing a tire there, that is, the pilot gets must get everything, everything in order to to go out and work and then rest, that's why we're looking not only for pilots, we're looking for pilots, engineers, and clerks, and we're looking for security guards and... we're looking for drivers, we need everyone, and we'll already decide who will do what , but the overall result we show on the battlefield depends on the result of all these people, we have no impossible, unimportant specialties in our battalion, our body works as one single entity, and we literally have 40 seconds, what is the most powerful goal recently succeeded in destroying what caused your satisfaction there or your

brothers in the destruction of enemies? well, to say it right away, it was a week ago, when there was an urgent command to support our friendly brigade on the left flank, which resulted in the equipment and calculation of four pilots, in command with a girl as our pilot, they were destroyed by four tanks and five bmps, this was really cool, and last night we were night bombers, the occupiers call them baba yaga, we captured four occupiers, that is , we replenished the exchange fund, we did not give up, we posed for the law of war, so that there was someone to attack exchange our boys in captivity, well, one decided not to surrender, so that he was liquidated. mr. alesya, thank you very much for the inclusion, for that work, for the service, for what you do for our country, and i will remind our viewers that it was sergeant oles malyarevich, who will soon become the second lieutenant of this new achilles battalion of the 92nd separate
