federation council and the state duma. they ask to protect the region from the pressure of moldova. also they appealed to the osce, the cis, the european parliament, the international committee of the red cross and the un secretary general. they call on international institutions to influence the people of chisinau so that they stop allegedly violating their rights and freedoms there. surprisingly, there are banners in the ukrainian language in the hall. also in ukrainian. some of the meeting participants are speaking, it is not by chance that in the grouping of restrictive blockade measures we will hear the statement that the effect of some kind of preferential regime for our enterprises has been terminated, and the status is being equalized economic agents throughout moldova. the french president's idea of ​​sending troops to ukraine is worthy of attention, so the western allies should also think about it... this is

the opinion expressed by the minister of foreign affairs of lithuania, gabrielus landsbergis. he added that the fate of europe is being decided on the battlefields in ukraine. such times require political leadership, ambition and the courage to think outside the box. the armored personnel carriers promised to kyiv will leave for ukraine in a few days, bulgarian defense minister todor tagarev announced. he also added that more priority assistance is already available i left a long time ago. to ukraine, let me remind you that back in november, the national assembly of bulgaria approved the transfer to our country of 100 decommissioned armored personnel carriers of the bulgarian ministry of internal affairs. however, the delivery was delayed due to questions about covering transportation costs. the usa and canada handed over equipment to ukrainian border guards to prevent nuclear smuggling. this is special equipment, as well as video surveillance systems and means of communication.

the ambassadors of the united states and canada noted that aid should protect our territory from illegal entry of nuclear materials, as well as strengthen the security of ukraine's borders. we owe it to the whole world to help you win this war and ensure the independent future of ukraine. this is a good way to pay tribute to the strong partnership we have... built over the past few years to strengthen international security and stability. ukraine concluded a friendship and cooperation agreement with albania. the document was signed in tirana by president volodymyr zelenskyi and prime minister edi rama. according to the ukrainian chapter states, the document will contribute to the development of our cooperation and strengthening of ukraine's position in the balkan region. they also discussed

the defense needs of ukraine and the possibility of joint production of weapons. since the beginning of the war, albania has consistently supported ukraine in its fight against aggression. profits from frozen russian assets should be directed to arms of ukraine. the president of the european commission, ursula fonderlein , called on the european union to consider such a proposal, reuters reports. she noted that the risks should not be exaggerated russian-ukrainian wars for the eu, but we should be ready for them. for this, it is necessary to urgently replenish and modernize the european army. it's time. start a conversation about using surplus profits from frozen russian assets for the joint purchase of military equipment for ukraine. there cannot be a stronger symbol and greater benefit from this money than to make ukraine and all of europe a safe place to live.

a civilian was shot during the occupation. prosecutors in the kharkiv region identified three russians who during capture of a village in the bogodukhiv district , a man was killed. they were given in absentia. suspect, these are servicemen from dagestan. according to the investigation, in may 2022, they found makarov, entered the agricultural enterprise and started shooting at the cattle. the occupiers, disregarding the laws and customs of war, shot a civilian man for commenting on the slaughter of livestock at the enterprise. local residents buried the victim in their own grave, as the occupiers for... forbade burial in the cemetery, after after the de-occupation of the village , law enforcement officers conducted an exhumation and the verbal cause of death of the victim . pretended to be a police officer.

the security service of ukraine in odesa detained a recidivist who was terrorizing local residents with a fake law enforcement officer's id. delay. the criminal got away with it when he attacked a local volunteer. threatening with a weapon, he tried to take 50,000 dollars from the man, which he had collected for ukrainian defenders. according to law enforcement officials, the detainee turned out to be a recidivist who had previously served a sentence for serious crimes. the investigator informed the defendant of suspicion of robbery committed under martial law under part four, article 187 of the criminal code of ukraine, the sanction of which is punishable by imprisonment for a term of eight to 15 years with confiscation of property. at the behest of the investigators, the court chose a preventive measure in the form of detention for the suspect. are journalists welcome in the council? supreme chairman of the committee

verkhovna rada on freedom of speech yaroslav yurchyshyn assured that he wants to restore trust in the ukrainian parliament. therefore, it is planned to create its committee at the next meeting. a working group that will deal with the issue of admitting journalists to the verkhovna rada. yurchyshyn expressed hope to reach such a decision in a month or two, because according to the law on media, it is possible to restart the re-accreditation process already in april. in order to balance access and security issues. as the head of the committee, one of my tasks is to in order to... restore confidence in the ukrainian parliament due to the fact that people receive information about what we are doing, how we are doing it within the limits that the state of war will allow. probably a ufo. the ukrainian military in the combat zone filmed an unidentified flying object,

writes the british newspaper daily mail, referring to the video of the 406th separate artillery brigade. the military managed to capture unusual footage with the help of a thermal imaging quadcopter. mavic 3t. a representative for the drone manufacturer could not comment, but acknowledged the possibility technical failures. and the espresso tv channel continues the collection of fpv drones for a separate platoon of unmanned aircraft complexes of the state special service of transport. these courageous soldiers are actively fighting in the donetsk direction, attacking and restraining the enemy. thanks to drones, they successfully destroy a lot of russian equipment. fortifications and manpower, so we have a goal - to collect uah 1 million for flying weapons, it remains to collect less than uah 250,000. so let's accelerate our victory together. thank you for your donations, together to

victory so, you will see the next news release already at 5 p.m., you can read more on our website espresso tv, a brief overview of the main ones on our social media. marta oliarnyk and antin parkovskyi. a mined country. according to the state emergency service, about 30% of the territory of our country is contaminated with explosive devices and unexploded ordnance. if you compare the scale, it is eight square meters of israel, almost six square meters of belgium or half of germany. demining. territory will last tens of years, in order to speed up this process, kyivstar together with the povernys fund

alive, they started a collection: let us live here, equipment and transport for sappers. as part of this initiative, together with the come back alive fund, we are buying equipment, you see behind me equipment for demining, protective suits and vehicles, which fully satisfy the demining teams. we planned to collect 175 million, but a little more, we are still counting. the company let us live here started in june 2023, we managed to close the collection already in the winter of 2024. in total , the initiative managed to attract uah 180 million. all of them the collected funds were used for the purchase of: quadcopters, tablets, radio stations, metal detectors, tools and pickup trucks. 146 engineering and sapper groups of the support forces of the armed forces of ukraine received demining equipment and new cars. as part of the entire project, military teams receive. support forces, these are the sappers who are engaged in demining, both in de-occupied territories,

there chernihiv region, sumy region, kharkiv region, as well as in areas where active hostilities are still going on, but people live, for example, the same kherson region. modern equipment has to secure the life of the defenders who occupy one in the heat of the moment. well, today's fresh statement appeared from the polish police, from the headquarters, so. as the polish police describe the course of yesterday's events, yes, regarding the detention and search of the ukrainian pravda journalistic group, in particular mykhailo tkach. so, i am quoting now the official statement of the polish police. on february 27 , the branch in lukov, this is lubel voivodeship, received a statement from a concerned... resident about two men who about two

the other day, being in a car near the track, in the vicinity of the railway junction in the holashyn area, from the information that came from that concerned resident, it was clear that the men were filming. and used a drone, here, taking into account the fact that it was, there were, there was a railway, and in particular it is about its location on the border lands, with the use taking into account the fact that these are strategic places from the point of view of security, the police made a decision regarding the specified... persons, the men communicated in ukrainian

language, claiming to be journalists, there were electronic devices, a drone and camera equipment in the car, so, given the language problems and the need to verify the documents shown, the appropriate procedures were carried out in the field at the police department. well, it is not surprising that the person had reservations, because we know that there are a lot of russian agents in poland, and accordingly, this can lead to certain thoughts, yes, but in any case, if there were any violations of this or that , then our consulate general and our embassy, ​​i think, will join in actively protecting the interests of our journalist, well, we are going further, adding oleg katkov, a military expert and the main... so, the netherlands ordered

howitzers for ukraine in the czech republic, we would like to ask you what kind the netherlands ordered such howitzers in the czech republic, how many such howitzers can they deliver to us, and actually, what makes them special? we are talking about saudita, this is a wheeled sau, self-propelled guns in the caliber of 15.55 mm based on the saudan, which is actually known in ukraine and in the armed forces of ukraine. that is, it is actually a 155-millimeter wheeled self-propelled artillery installation. under the name of the child with the preservation of even the development of all these wonderful things that were already in the data, it is about automation, in particular the fact that denmark has an automatic loader, which has already reduced the crew, and the saudi has only two persons who during combat work do not touch ammunition at all, the fact is that everything there is done by an automated loading system, and this

means a very fast rate of fire, it means that the system... due to the high digitalization works, well, in fact, in an autonomous mode, where the task of the crew is only, well, conditionally to press where it is necessary to destroy the target, all information about it is obtained again from automated control systems, well, then it already works automatically, and the only point, ciao does not quite belong to such a golden standard 155 for 52 calibers, there is a slightly shorter barrel length of 47 calibers, this slightly affects long-range shooting. it is up to 39 km, but these are only limited platforms, that is, at the expense of this, in fact, not that much less sadita is an excellent example of an automated system, an artillery system, considering that this is a new system, that is, it is not in service with any country, in the company of the army, it is only offered, then it will be a new

production, and currently it is known that nine have been ordered ty units, relative to the time it takes to shave them, well how long it takes, it's measured in months anyway. the only option when ukraine can get them in the near future is only if the excalibur army produced them for storage, and there was no such information, and we are ready to transfer them from our own stocks, well, maybe there will be one prototype, but if we are talking about new ones, then these are technological production cycles, which are measured in months. mr. editor. well, i would like to ask you about an equally serious story, and perhaps it has some additional functionality in terms of media. so, journalists from the financial times published data that various scenarios of a chinese invasion were being worked out in russia and even a corresponding, appropriate revision of the protocols regarding

the use of tactical nuclear weapons if necessary, so there. the financial times has released confidential documents that show the threshold for the use of tactical nuclear weapons has been lowered. well, on the one hand, we all laughed, so to speak, that putin's flirtation with china could end , so to speak, with a serious threat from china, but on the other hand, i have a feeling that this is another, another reminder to our western allies, that russia has nuclear weapons, that they are ready to downgrade. the threshold of its use, well, they are in such, perhaps, an indirect way is demonstrated, although perhaps i am wrong here, and the threat from china, which can return the original chinese territories to its native harbor, is much more serious than the kremlin wants to demonstrate it, it turned out this way, because firstly, back in the days of the soviet union , well, always consider the option that

china will go to the north, and in this case , still from the time of the soviet union. the only means that allows, well, then the ussr, and now in the russian federation, to restrain the chinese novala, is nuclear weapons, in this case tactical nuclear weapons , that is, taking into account the existence of the eastern military district, the main task of which is defense against china, even in the 23rd year , training was conducted several times with the operational tactical complex iskander, which is precisely the carrier of tactical nuclear weapons, then in fact, well let's put it this way, conducting... such exercises and doctrine, the very use against china and nuclear weapons is not a novel, at the same time , the most important thing is that the stated vice of the use of nuclear weapons in the russian federation is really quite possibly lower than it seemed. the fact is that in the 14th year , the doctrine of the use of nuclear weapons was changed in the russian federation, where

a clause was introduced that this is possible in the event that the russian federation as a state is threatened with... destruction, that is, a rather broad wording, because previously there was only in the case of nuclear aggression, and such a broader interpretation, in fact, if again the materials published by fination time are reliable, they relate in particular to the methodology, well, the doctrine of the use of nuclear tactical weapons in naval forces of the russian federation, and it specifically states that launch nuclear tactical weapons... especially in the case of, for example, a simultaneous attack on the main and reserve command posts, and in fact, this wording already includes any serious aggression against the russian federation and even in response to its other aggression, that is, simply, if the russian federation starts any war, then against any large enemy commensurate with its capabilities, then

of course it will strike the command posts of the naval forces using conventional methods, and it already reveals, no, here i would just like to clarify, well, that document is about 10 years old, plus or minus, and what is appearing right now, this one is extraordinary. possible and evil, it can also testify to something, well, the fact that they worked out, so to speak, the chinese the possibility of deployment, so to speak, in their educational games, so it is, it is formulated like this, well, the russian federation, yes, it 's understandable, yes, but the fact that it appears now is also some kind of signal, it's quite possible, but just roar traditionally thunder with your nuclear weapons, and in this case it's just... another proof that the only thing that guarantees the existence of the kremlin in any form is nuclear weapons, without them there will be nothing, at the same time such constant

blackmail with nuclear weapons , that is, it should be reminded here that these are constant reminders about this, there is a special medvedev, who, of course, is caught as a clown and a clown in ukraine, but in fact still occupies the corresponding position of deputy secretary. bezu and he produces to the west the corresponding constants statements regarding nuclear weapons, well , the case here is that it may become , on the contrary, a trigger for the fact that such a country will simply be shot. well, very much, by the way, we doubt this, although, as they say , we will wait and see, but i would still like to draw attention to the possible use of nuclear weapons in relation to ukraine, that is, in the opinion of experts in... probably a higher threshold for the use of tactical nuclear weapons in ukraine, since kyiv does not have its own nuclear potential, and in principle it is more profitable for putin to use this nuclear threat

as essentially a means of influence, rather than its actual implementation, because there are huge fears in moscow that this will really lead to a direct confrontation between nato and russia, and this nuclear blackmail, it is a kind of trump card up the sleeve, which can always be ... to use in order to bargain for one or another utility in situations. actually, i would like them to either deny or confirm this, because it is important for people to understand that all of medvedev's threats are mostly muscle playing. yes, that's what i'm talking about that is, it's a muscle game, but it may well end, in fact, that is, well , let's look at the rhetoric from the kremlin, he... give ukraine or we'll strike with nuclear weapons, the next step, give the baltic countries, or we'll strike with nuclear weapons, give poland, or we will strike nuclear weapons, give finland, or nuclear weapons,

by the way, we have already heard conversations after finland and that they say that the unification of germany was somehow wrong, and therefore germany must be divided again, and the east must come under the influence of russian interests, or we will strike with nuclear weapons. uh, that is, once again, constant threats of nuclear weapons will quite possibly one day lead to the fact that , firstly, no one will believe everything, and secondly, again, it leads to very terrible consequences in any case , because all the countries that technically can have nuclear weapons, but don't have them because of the current security architectures that the rifts have followed for a long time, will start to get nuclear weapons, and this from... well, that actually means in a fairly medium-term perspective the beginning of one way or another nuclear conflicts , and the occupations of humanity in such a civilization as a whole, that is why the topic is not very similar,

but can you please be brief, here you just touched on a very interesting topic regarding countries that do not have nuclear weapons, ukrainians now very often disperse this topic as well, let’s get back the nuclear status, well actually it's quite populist, as it sounds to me, because all grown people understand that returning the nuclear status. a difficult discussion, i hope that we can talk to mr. oleg next time about this topic, this is an extremely serious story, it consists of several important components, that is, not only resource, but also political, geopolitical, and so on , we just have to go further, and we will not be able to cover this topic briefly. thank you, mr. oleg, oleg kadko, military expert, editor-in-chief of defense express. on the air of espresso, we're moving on and we're actually going on a short break now, but we remind you, our tv viewers and our youtube viewers, that we announced a new collection today and
