the command of the occupation forces of the dnieper was probably located. according to preliminary information , at least 60 occupiers were killed. let's see.

glory to the armed forces of ukraine. friends, we work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms. if you are watching us now on these platforms, take part in our vote. today we ask you this: do you believe that the war will end with the return of all territories. yes, no, on youtube there is a button either yes or no, write your comment under this video if you have a special opinion. well, if you're watching us on tv, then call if you think it's...believable, or rather, will end in the return of all territories 0800 211 381, not

0800 211382. all calls to these numbers are free, call, at the end program we will summarize this voting. and we have our first guest ihor lapin, major of the armed forces of ukraine, special officer, people's deputy of ukraine of the eighth convocation. mr. major, i welcome you, thank you for being with us today. and... to ukraine. glory to heroes. mr. major, let's start our conversation with belarus. we haven't heard anything from our northern neighbor for a long time. and here is defense minister khrenin, i... who, you remember, convinced reznikov two years ago that russian troops would not leave the territory of belarus, and this was a few days before the big of russia's offensive, stated that ukraine has concentrated 112-114 thousand people near the belarusian border, and says that he promises

to unceremoniously shoot down nato planes if they violate the airspace of the republic of belarus, the ambassador. today, according to our estimates, there are about 112-14 thousand of these groups, of which a little more than 17 thousand personnel are involved in the direct protection of the ukrainian-belarusian border. our border guards see a lot of provocation, in particular, violation of airspace . we respond to all these violations, when necessary, our combat aircraft rises, they are brought. so that belarus is preparing for the second stage, and a repetition of what happened in the 22nd year is possible, and it does not look like belarus

is preparing for war? well, let 's be honest, belarus... is preparing, not belarus is preparing, russia is planning to use the troops of belarus against ukraine, well, they have that, they have, putin's funny troops, well, that's what you can call them, the belarusian armed forces, we spoiled them back in the 22nd year, there were a lot of citizens of belarus servicemen of belarus, the regular army of belarus, were destroyed on our territory, and this is a fact regarding the statements, well, i have already said it and will repeat it many times. in order to successfully carry out any military operations against ukraine on the part of belarus, it is necessary to concentrate there, at least, at least 40-45 thousand plus. the armed forces of belarus, together with the security forces , can in principle raise such a number of personnel. and then who will protect tsar lukashenko? you understand that lukashenka's power rests on the security forces. does not matter,

whether it is the army, whether it is the field police or the militia, it does not matter. army. lukashenka's government is holding on to the bayonets, that's it, period, now further, do they have such an opportunity, well, of course there is, but the question of military goals and expediency, stretching our rear, stretching our armed forces, opening another front, such threats are quite realistic , but where are they going to reach, well, once lukashenko said that we will cut off ukraine from the western borders there, well , that is, as i understand it, they were going to reach there somewhere to uzhgorod, probably, well, it is not serious. from belarus to ukraine, if i am not mistaken, 13 roads lead, well, i could be wrong, but there are 13 such main roads, tanks do not drive through forests and swamps, tanks drive on roads, we are not the same as we were in the 22nd year, not so naive, let's put it this way, and the fact that we have been digging there for two years is a fact, well, general naiv can tell more, i will not tell so much,

further, whether there is any military potential at all and whether there is an opportunity in... order lukashenka to shoot himself in the legs and then in the head, of course, putin can achieve this, in what way, which way, this is no longer a question for me, but i emphasize once again, the movement of such a large number of troops and their deployment in combat formations, no one will say anymore, as reznikov and arahamiya told us exactly two years ago, recently facebook reminded me , that exactly two years ago, reznik yarakhamya was told that there were no strike groups, zelenskyi said, we are marinating the meat. there will be barbecues, don't panic, all this fake news, don't pay attention and so on, that is, we remember it all. today, of course, any the deployment of troops will not be ignored, it is true, i have not seen such a deployment at the moment, well, but for this we have budanov, who must do his job, observe there, watch from space, from

a satellite, and the western partners already also , if they look at the fact that the authorities are preparing for its surrender... or kyiv, they will also publish, probably, the journal bil will publish the main directions of the attack, and ihor lapin will once again gather some partisan units in order to destroy them there , well, because i don't see another option, how about it in a different way you can react, i emphasize once again, at the moment the possibilities of opening such a direction are real, but we need more intelligence, will the russians try to destabilize our northern border, right? of course, by the way, they have one more fun game at the moment, on the 28th, if i'm not mistaken, there is going to be a congress in the transnistrian moldavian republic, the so -called transnistria. as for joining russia, they have already confused something there, and i am also watching this very closely, because this island, an enclave, which on the one hand

borders with ukraine, and on the other side it is the territory of moldova, and now there are very serious challenges for maia sandu, and in this case we must also be ready, because if you look at the number of weapons and personnel of the pmr together with their russian 14th that army, then their... forces are superior to the forces of moldova, so i think that romania should also be ready here, if such a request comes from mai sandu. i emphasize once again, this is another country's issue, they should decide, but for us, these are also very serious dangerous signals, so should we ignore it? of course not, well, we are not ignoring it, we are preparing. well, you are referring to the statement of the leader of the separatist moldovan movement, which is located in transnistria, volodymyr krasnosilskyi... he says that deputies of various levels will gather and ask for joining the russian federation, that is, the scenario that was in the 22nd year, well, since 14th, we have seen all these

scenarios unfolding on the territory of ukraine, and they are repeated, that is, they play the same card when some group of people appeals to putin, putin 29 in february, he has to address the federal meeting with an annual message, these before... this federal message, on the 28th, he is going to the so-called congress. by the way, we have this congress not only in 2014. do you remember that back in severodonetsk in 2004, when the second round of presidential elections was held, they gathered in severodonetsk and also talked about the need to call on putin to come. everyone has already forgotten about it, the truth is, well, most people have forgotten. can putin play the transnistria card. as well as with the so-called lpr and dpr, that is, to do that exactly, no, he won't be able to do the same thing, because you need to have a direct land corridor of some kind in order to play there,

they don't have it, that is, you have to go through odessa, they are not in vain, now the bears are out of their drinking, began to tell again that odessa is a russian city and so on, maybe they have such, you know, wet illusions, there are dreams, but i emphasize once again, well, we are not here today, not 20, not 20. february 22- th year, we are a little bit different now, and the army is different, and everything is different, and so i don't see such a scenario to play this card in order to there are allies there, and if they are going to unite , then they have to bite off the entire south of ukraine, they fought here for avdiivka for six months, well, here you can imagine further, but in general, destabilization in this direction, distraction of attention for european partners can happen, and on it must be taken into account, it must be taken into account. attention, well, listen , well, let's speak frankly, well, moldova plays with transnistria even more than ukraine played with ordlo, well , no matter what, they play with them there,

they drive calmly there, there are car signs, it's calm there there is movement of goods, people, passports , moss, swamp, goats, horses, pigs and everything goes there, if they don't make an island there, which has to sort itself out within its own country, i say now moldova should be closed, and for transnistria that more... and to prepare for a physical confrontation, because the russians have their 14th army there, so i understand that many representatives of moldova serve in that army, citizens of moldova, well, they have citizenships there too will break, i don't think that all of them are rushing into battle against moldova under flags of russia, but this enclave has quite serious opportunities for destabilization there, i emphasize once again, the transnistrian army has several times more personnel than in moldova. and this can be a serious challenge for maisand, for her country and in general for destabilization in this region. the russians will set fire to all the regions they can. well, it must

be said that in 1992 there was already a conflict, an armed conflict, they were shooting, that is, there was a war, it’s just that everyone forgets about it for some reason very quickly, well, 30 years have passed, i understand, or 32, let's go back to the situation. which is taking place in kherson oblast, because shoigu already reported to putin that they took the krynks there, today zelensky said that they did not take the krynks and the armed forces of ukraine continue to get a bridgehead in the village of krynky on the left bank of the kherson oblast, and this has already been reported by the operational command south, earlier propagandists, well, the russians rolled out this topic about the krynks, which is happening now. in the east and in the south and how it is connected with each other, well, it is meant not only the east, but also probably the northeast, where liman and

kupyansk are, that's right. well, look , the lyman-kupyan direction, as i already said , kupinsky is interesting for another, perhaps another statement by putin before the elections, that kharkiv kharkiv is also a russian city, and kharkiv oblast is the territory of russia, it may be included in the constitution something is welded in, they need to have a piece of kharkiv oblast, since they, having a piece of zaporizhzhia, said that the zaporizhia region is russia, well, that's all, they said, well, to them, this statement is, by the way, in the context of transnistria, for which we just they talked, this... one of the statements of putin's pre-election program can easily happen, this is also a fact regarding krynka, well, shoigu takes krynka there, i remember, they took bahmud six or seven times already, i don't remember how many , so what they are doing there, i don’t know, our guys showed footage from a drone, how two fainted people ran out, took a picture and then ran, that’s the story, you know, look, we are holding the bridgehead as long as we have the opportunity to cover

uh... beachhead with either artillery or drones, at this point i know what's there i will not name our friendly drone teams , so as not to give away any units, but such famous teams are sitting there in them there is a socialist comparison, somewhere , some russian armored vehicles have not yet had time to leave, as the competition is already going on, who will be the first to fly and shoot down there is her, well, somewhere it looks like that, that’s why we have the opportunity to cover up for the time being, there are still a few there from, as they say, from the reserves , from the fire extinguishers, for the feed of the homeland , a few shells were provided and as long as we have the opportunity to keep our brothers, we support it with artillery and fpv drones, if there is no such opportunity, of course they will drop the dnipro on us, well, that’s understandable, that’s the logic of war, that’s why the story that shaygu told, they took kyiv there in three days, well, let them open another chain of restaurants , they have already opened one chain of restaurants in moscow

, it’s called zaobishchiki, well, come on... they also have the same chain of restaurants in st. petersburg, well, it ’s something like today’s oteto ot krynks, and in general, what is being done in the east and in the south, well, look , the risks are those that i have already said, the swallow is holding on like a redoubt, but the main forces and artillery should concentrate on the prepared lines, this is a little further, from the swallow a little behind, this is the avdiyivka district, how well we have prepared, will be seen later, now i do not want to criticize or praise, but the fact that something happened there ... but i didn't see a lot of concrete mixers there, so of course some milestones are being prepared, against this background, the statements of western partners who tell us that the lack of weapons will lead to the loss of cities seem strange, well, it's true, it's a realistic scenario, and at the same time in kramatorsk 700 thousand is allocated on this on prozoro, they sell 700 uah there for the restoration of the kramatorsk market,

improvement. kramatorsk market, that is , a city 10 km from the front line, look at what they are spending money on, so the issue of defensive lines will be acute, and if these saboteurs do not stop doing this trash, well, to be honest, i don't know how still influence today's local self-government bodies so that they understand, especially near the front line, well, that's all some trash, just like in the zaporizhzhia region, since january they have not been able to hold a tender for the production of dragon's teeth, there is money, the money has been allocated by the government from the reserve, but they have not held the tender yet, they are already running out of people, and they are still a tender is held, well, how can we talk further, and then friends from zaporizhia call me, their parents are there and say, they write in private, listen, what will zaporizhzhia surrender, well, first of all, no one surrenders anything, we defend exactly as much as we can, but in order for you to sleep peacefully in zaporozhye, go to the local administration and give them under the back of the head, well, what else can be said, i don't know, so that they don't see it as a call to some kind of violence, well, but in another way, i don't

know how else. to influence the local self-government bodies so that they take the military-civilian administrations into their faberge and begin to close the issue of the construction of defensive lines, zaporizhzhia is of course farther than kramatorsk, there are as many as 47 or 50 km from the front line, idiots , well, what else can i say, well , i won't say it in another way, high treason, maybe there, the sbu counter-intelligence should already be engaged in what kind of sabotage is going on, and maybe it's not sabotage, but maybe it 's treason, we have to figure it out, but what can i, i can't be a kid... i have to do this further along the front , well, what else is so interesting, the yar times are fundamental for them in order to complete the issue of the donetsk agglomeration, as they say, and to have the opportunity to look either at kostantinivka to the left, or at slovyansk-kramatorsk to the right, well, this issue must be considered, well i think that the general staff will sort it out here, the movement, the front has moved near vogledar, well, that's what i think it is connected with the fact that it is not far from avdiyivka, maybe some groups

from the avdiyivka direction are starting to... suppress ugledar ee
