make it difficult for three trucks, while the passage of cars and buses is not hindered. demchenko also added that yagodin and ravaruska checkpoints remain blocked for now. in general, there are more than a thousand trucks waiting in line to enter ukraine. let me remind you that the day before, polish farmers unblocked traffic at the medikashegyna checkpoint. donald trump urged the candidate not to provide aid to ukraine and israel. the us president believes that money should be allocated exclusively in the form of a loan on specific terms. during the pre-election rally in the state of pivdenna carolina, he once again declared that he can end the war between russia and ukraine. he considers the termination of funding to support kyiv to be one of these ways, and he also suggested that the united states could be left without hundreds of billions of dollars, because allegedly ukraine can conclude a peace agreement with russia. at the same time, donald trump said that

he will encourage russia to do whatever it wants with any nato member country that does not comply with the alliance's directives on defense spending. they want to allocate almost 100 billion to several countries. why do we do this? if you want to help so much, then lend them these funds and they will return them. for example, we have already sent more than 200 billion dollars to ukraine, and suddenly they no longer want to deal with us. they will abandon us and conclude an agreement with russia within three weeks, and we gave them hundreds of billions. currently , more than 3,000 internally displaced persons live in kyiv region alone, and as of march 1, the majority may be left without assistance from the state. the government has adopted a resolution that will change the rules of aid payments for idps. these rules will come into force in the spring. which categories of displaced people will remain without cash payments, but what about them? live in

kyiv region in our material. we left zaporizhzhia via vasylivka, we left for 5 days, it was very difficult for us. to zaporizhzhia, and in zaporizhzhia we were already sheltered by the church there, we stayed there for a day, and then all of us were taken by volunteers to kyiv. kateryna from skadovsk in the kherson region, together with her family, stayed in the occupation for almost six months. russians came to the woman's place of work, checked her phones. in the city , the invaders kidnapped people. also kateryna worried about her two sons, so they decided to leave. it was not difficult, it was very difficult to walk down the street and know that you can already talk, that no one will stop you, that they will not come after you with pistols, with automatic weapons, that was scary, that oh, you can talk, well, well well, it was very scary, but the climate is still

very good, when they came to us for work in skadovsky for the last time and started lining up our phones and said that there will be children... if we don't leave to their school and they will take away their families, we already left then. now the family lives in erpin, where they were able to get a small modular house, it has two rooms, a kitchen and a bathroom. such a house is designed for four people. the woman says that now her family has no problems. now kateryna is actively looking for a job, but most of all she wants to return to her native skadovsk with her family. oh, i really want to even today. they kissed the ground and that was it. currently , more than 24,000 displaced people are registered in irpen, which also suffered from russian aggression. and people who are forced leave their homes, continue to go to the city. two modular towns were created for them, in which more than a thousand people already live. we have

a model town in dubka, the first that was settled in us, it is like a dormitory, in everyone. in the module there is a children's room, a sports room, we have two types of houses there, there we have polish houses, there are eight houses with eight apartments, there are finnish houses, they are one-story, with three apartments. the state financially supports more than 1.5 million displaced persons, and since march 1, people who forced to leave their homes, they will wait for a change. the government has approved the list of persons to whom payments will be made. will continue automatically, these are pensioners, if as of january 1 the amount of the pension does not exceed uah 9.44, people with disabilities of the first or second group, children with disabilities under the age of 18, as well as orphans and those deprived of parental

care. everyone who does not fall under these categories should contact the relevant authority and submit an application for continuation of payments. when... the immigrants have been there since the 14th year, and they were and are immigrants, they were paid for all nine years, well, that is, they were permanent, but now the payments have become temporary, and they are appointed for six months, probably with the possibility of extension, but the concept itself has changed, these are not lifetime payments, as of today in ukraine, almost 5 million people who are considered internally... displaced, half of them will receive payments from the state. currently, this amount is uah 200 per month. last year , 73 billion hryvnias were spent on such assistance from the state budget. dmytro didora oleksiy kutsuk, yuliya belska, espresso tv channel. capital

the zoo received 26 tons of professional fodder from berlin colleagues. due to the war in ukraine , there was an acute problem with such mixtures, which are extremely necessary for animals, especially during the period of preparation for the birth of offspring, because these dry feeds are enriched with the necessary vitamins and minerals for each species. such help became a real gift not only for permanent residents of the capital zoo, but also for more than half a thousand animals from war-torn regions, which were sheltered here. now in ukraine there is a big problem with dry fodder, because the enterprise is either destroyed, or... because the guys are at war, but right now in the spring we need to feed the baby, the one that will appear this year, and so we asked our colleagues from german zoos to provide us with such help , separately they gave a ton for

our elephant khorez, because khorez was born in the berlin zoo and next week on february 14 is his birthday, this is all the news for this hour, more interesting and relevant. you will find these on our website espresso.tv, as well as on our social networks. join, bet your preferences and stay with espresso. greetings, dear viewers, on espresso tv channel, studio zahid program, we will analyze the most important events of this week, which will undoubtedly determine the events of the coming months. our guests today are matthew bryza and mark fagin. she is currently working on the espresso tv channel. a member of the russian opposition in exile, a former member of the state duma, a famous video blogger. glory

to ukraine, mark, congratulations. glory, greetings anton, greetings to all viewers. well, carlson landed in moscow, we understand that none of the journalists probably received similar honors, he was literally carried around like a written off bag. and so, the key story is not even what putin said in the carlson interview. the key story is why this representative of bourgeois imperialist journalism was received so gently in moscow, and what he could bring, so we understand that carlson is not carlson himself. carlson is a person extremely close to one of the candidates, the main candidates for the position of president of the united states, and it is possible that he even could occupy a very high position in the event of trump's victory. what can i say here, the visit is apparently unexpected, appeared in kremlin. public in the telegram, his photo in the bolshoi theater, you know, it is a tradition since soviet times to honor guests

with space, ballet and something like that, so it is not by chance that he was there with operatives of the fsb, i think he may or may not have known, but he was probably accompanied, there was some kind of escort in the big theater, and even then it was clear that he had arrived. putin gave this interview as if sending a message to trump, what is being said publicly that we are ready to negotiate, we cannot agree with this administration, they do not hear us, we want to negotiate with someone new who will be the master of the oval office in january 2025 , that we are ready to cooperate with america, and that there is a mutual understanding with america, it can also be achieved with the next administration and so on, but the price of the issue is ukraine, then we are ready to negotiate, this is, to put it briefly and succinctly, the main leip-motif of the interview that carlson showed. now about personality carlson himself. you know that in the american press there are sometimes reports that trump is considering him as one

of the candidates for the nomination for the post of vice president from the republican party, and desantis was named there, although it seems that trump himself did not have a relationship with desantis, others were named, so to claim that carlson cannot end up in the post of vice president, i personally do not believe that he will become a candidate for vice presidents and vice president under trump, but besides that, if the american press writes about it, it it is no coincidence that more that the connections of carlson, who is a favorite among journalists, dating back to the days of fox news with trump, are quite obvious, and that he could then secretly convey to trump, all the same, that moscow is ready to cooperate, i think, with trump and his entourage , and without that there are channels, for that you don't need a publicly certified carlson to specifically conduct something there, i think there are opportunities for exchange, for sure, but here it is important. subscribers,

i'm afraid to lie. yes, of course, some of his videos have 2-3 million views. this is with putin will be a huge viewing. it can be expected that tyzar, with the performance he showed for free with free access to the interview with putin , has already seen almost 10 million views. that is, the interview with... putin will also have so many views. and how is carlson articulated? he says we have a right to know, we have to find out what's going on. mark, look, well, the key story is what was in the pockets of carlson, who was going to putin, and what did he stuff, some kind of informational baggage or some informational package, he stuffed it into his bosom when was returning to trump. here is the key story, here are the signals that are hidden there. unarticulated publicly, i will say right away, i believe that trump is wrong about putin

, there is a certain as a developer, he has exactly this psychology, the psychology of a businessman, in addition to being semi-criminal, semi-eccentric , a person who is sometimes a casino, then women, then beauty contests , and not some warren buffett out there who talks about one thing all the time. lyuberetsk developer, is there luzhnikovsky or sonevsky? you see, when beauty contests, a bit of cinema, it's all kind of mass media, he probably thinks like this: listen, don't negotiate, you get 20% of ukraine, we take 80, great business. you get a bare 20%, these are the territories and all the preferences related to access to the sea, some new geopolitical situation for you, putin does not want 20%, he wants 100%, it is important to understand this, and this is where this hope lies , that even if trump wins the election, they will not agree, because 20% is not enough for putin.

moreover, 100% of ukraine is not enough for him, his goal is what was stated in his memorandum in december. 1997, before the nato membership of these countries. he will be to push for exactly that, and hope that they don't end up agreeing, because for trump it was a concession for nothing, a trade for air. i think that putin can now maneuver without revealing all his cards. he wants to simply change the atmosphere in the united states, in the political establishment or in the power in which trump can come in order to start talking to him at all. secondly, there are sanctions, and oil, and an embargo, and the removal of his status as a war criminal, all this putin wants, of course, and will make these demands, this

of course, we understand it, but it is only a derivative of the main demand that he wants all of ukraine. he will never be satisfied with the fact that he kept 20%, and 80% will go to nato and the european union. this is important to understand. they will never agree on this, even with a negotiating partner as convenient for him as trump. in my personal opinion, trump knows where to stop. also because such a task of positions is unacceptable for the american elite, for the american doctrine. for everything that the united states has done in the last 30-35 years years after the fall of communism , the victory in the cold war, etc., so in fact carlson can only make a kind of framework offer, an invitation to the so-called, behind which he does not even hide, even in this interview, maybe somewhere out of sight, out of the interview , off the frame, it was about this, no need to start a dialogue, no need to negotiate, we can agree on everything, i

am open to everything, i am ready for everything, it was in such expressions that putin could convey something to trump. we hope that the administration of the current of the current president biden, she will be able to implement what was voiced or promised, but we see that everything somehow slips up again and again. what do you think the undercurrents are, right? well, on the one hand, we understand that the republicans are for ukraine, right? and in fact, we see that they can't come to an agreement, and everyone starts to rock this unfortunate border with mexico, right? also gained importance, i don't know, well, the same taiwan, it turns out that way, but it cannot be considered outside the context of the election, the election in america is a determining factor in which the republicans are certainly using the situation, possibly putting pressure on the democratic administration, biden himself, on his entourage in order to achieve the maximum benefit

for themselves in the elections, because the dispute about the border, about illegal migrants, by the way, the administration... biden resists, says to pass 500 migrants a day, and the republicans say 10, now they go around and insist that not a single person at all, which looks quite logical and correct from the side of the same republicans, but the problem is why they associate it with ukraine, why is this interconnection with international issues, which, to put it mildly, is not part of the american agenda at all, the ukrainian issue does not affect taxes, or... or health care reform in the united states, or for anything, just cynical american politics, whether we like it or not, is determined in many ways by trump's nomination, because if nikki haley were nominated, this problem would not exist, if she had a high rating and was the first contender, then most likely , such a situation would not have arisen. american

senators, republicans who influence the issue, depend on trump's opinion. constantly torture the rest and the head of the speaker of the house of representatives johnson. six people who can throw their votes into the balance, taking into account the democratic votes, and re-elect speaker johnson. this is not beneficial to him, so he slows down the inclusion of the issue on the agenda. let's see how it ends. we decide in advance, we will see, but this blocking is caused precisely by the actions of trump's rabid supporters with the help of republican congressmen. a fact remains a fact, somehow so it turns out that some... i don't know

in the program regarding ukraine, well, i wouldn't like to be such a pessimistic conspiracy theorist, but such a strange coincidence, you know, when the americans can't find money and promises, promises, promises, for a democratic administration . this is also a very profitable moment, because president biden, apart from the decision of congress, has the opportunity to help with weapons and military aid, first of all. there is such a possibility, bypassing the congress with its decisions on the budget of the pentagon, etc., but what he declares, he says: no, we will not do this, let all the responsibility be on the republicans, if they refuse to allocate these 60 billion, let them be responsible for everything, that is, it is some kind of game on the part of the democrats. we know. that within the democratic administration there is a line aimed at forcing ukraine to negotiate with moscow through concessions, to give up this 20% of the territory,

to get what is not yet known, there are not even parameters of possible negotiations with moscow that would be beneficial to ukraine, we do not know because the previous conditions for the release of the occupied territories are rejected by moscow as well, and in general the west also calmly reacts to this ultimatum from moscow. so yes, it can be assumed that for the democrats, for biden, this is a very convenient position, from which he will say: i am ready to help, i even made concessions on the borders, i am ready for a fence on the mexican border, but they don't want it, you you see how republicans behave in an ultimate manner, so for some part of biden's entourage, giving him extra points, it is profitable to present it as if the problem is only among republicans, it is certainly difficult here. ukraine has become a hostage of the election campaign in the united states, and it will probably continue this way until november. we

're already in february, there's at least another six months to go, but sooner or later it has to end. well, in any case , putin is going to visit his esteemed partner erdogan in the near future. well, we understand that syria, libya, the red sea are all understandable stories, but... for putin to go personally, it means he must bring something, hear something and get something i believe that putin is going to negotiate with two countries. he was in saudi arabia before that, now he will go to turkey to choose or propose the format of the negotiations on ukraine, either the istanbul one, which was already held, or the summit in jeddah, which took place in august last year, which was hosted by saudi arabia, and the negotiations were held there with trump as the future. president, it will already be in november. if suddenly the elections end with his victory, then on january 20, 2025, he will already be inaugurated and will be ready to hold negotiations with him. and

perhaps the venue, of course no one will go to moscow or washington, can be istanbul, jeddah or riyadh. this is the global south. he can accept, and not some kind of geneva, as was the case with biden. it seems to me that putin is interested in supporting such an idea from the outside. of the global south, the initiators of the summit in jeddah, saudi arabia and other countries, and the istanbul format was already in 2022, and putin now appeals to it, says: "you fools, you didn't agree with us then." so, i can well assume that, in addition to other issues related to relations between turkey and moscow, erdogan and putin, it will be a priority to resume negotiations on their platform on favorable terms for putin. it seems to me that he will be about it. come to an agreement, talking about these framework putin's visions and proposals, we remember how many kyds dedicated to the istanbul format in kyds, i don't know, careless wording and so

on and so on and so on, well, they tried to make the extremes of the then prime minister prime minister of great britain boris johnson, although in any case we understand that it was not his decision, not his vision, simply, well , a collective measure could not accept such a thing . there, the exit from the istanbul agreements was a combined decision, the deanery in buch really influenced the readiness of the west at that moment in the spring of 22 to supply weapons in significant quantities so that ukraine could defend itself. and the positions of ukrainian society were taken into account. ukrainian society did not want any agreements through concessions. plus, it was clear that the success against which these negotiations began. on february 24, they went to ukraine and approached kyivska oblast, turned out to be imaginary, that is, the opportunity to implement this plan was very small.

because in general the kyiv region was protected and moscow's losses were huge, besides, they were not ready, the plan provided for three days or seven days, maybe a month, that is , a short period, a blitz-krieg, it choked and no one was ready to continue exactly in the form of a blitzkrieg, it was necessary to withdraw, regroup and start a long, long war, which is now happening. you know, i don't think it was a bad decision, refusal to negotiate then. the problem is not that ukraine left the negotiations. the west then had other intentions, and the fact that the west does not fulfill its obligations, let's say, openly, regarding the supply of such weapons that it promised. it was not ukraine that asked for an event within the framework of ramstein, the big seven, two nato summits already, and promised to supply these weapons. i

remember when i predicted that the war could be over by 2024, or the beginning of the 24th . it was at the end of 2023. and it happened against the background of the successful kharkiv operation liberation of kherson. and there were promises that almost tomorrow we will provide missiles to the attacks, ironclads and the rest to finish this matter on the battlefield. but it was nothing. they did not provide anything. then there was pentagon gate, a scandal at the end of the winter of 2023, when the documents were revealed and it turned out that the supply of these promised weapons, tanks and the rest, was very slow in general, and that the offensive was neither in march, nor in april, nor in may it will not start, because it is simply understaffed, undertrained ukrainian soldiers army, as it was promised in the right amount,

unsupplied weapons. on those known grounds, the arrangements were different by the event, and the promises by the event were different. therefore, this problem cannot be blamed only on ukraine. like their counterattack was choked. more precisely, he did not complete the tasks that were set before him. have fulfilled all obligations so that ukraine implements all these plans. good question too. therefore, today new negotiations will most likely be on new grounds. and moscow will lead them differently. putin was given a break for at least six months, he managed to create the notorious line of surovikin in three rows, minefields and a sea of ​​other things. thus, he created a favorable position for negotiations. therefore

he can now press. there is only one problem: if the west did not give in to this pressure, putin would not achieve anything. this is solely due to the weakness of the west caused by the elections, which are even democratic. the current administration is forced to maneuver and not make sudden moves in order to pass the election period with a relatively calm attitude of the voters towards themselves, without giving reasons for aggravation critics from trump and republicans. so, negotiations will resume only under the new administration, there is no chance for this under the previous one. what do you think will fit into putin's russian self-reappointment agenda. this is the story of the war, yes, and how far they will be ready, so to speak, to go all the way in what is called an existential war. voters' votes are not important for putin. will get votes,

moods are important to him, it is important to him that people do not rebel, do not be indignant, agree, recognize and behave quietly, this is really important to putin , it is pointless to deny it, and he monitors public sentiments, they have no connection with the election results, even if you imagine that 90% are against putin, putin would not give up power, he secured the result with bayonets and protected him, would write that he has... 100% and would not let people come out and be outraged by this violation, substitution or falsification of the results, but sentiments are still important, he must control them, they must correspond to his desires, his intentions, that is, so that it does not occur in any case a serious, irreconcilable contradiction, it is impossible to replace the real picture only with virtual, invented elections and their results, it is not possible, people should still keep
