what happened today in odessa happened after the russian dictator putin promised to take revenge on ukraine for the actions of russian rebels in the belgorod and kursk regions, let's hear what the kremlin grandfather said. in order to disrupt the voting process and intimidate people, the neo-nazi regime in kyiv planned and is trying.

it is likely that the attack on odessa was directed, including at the russian electorate, at those who will cast their votes for putin from today, pseudo-elections are starting in the russian federation, putin needs to demonstrate their strength, but where can others show their strength, if not in ukraine and without attacking. peaceful cities and homes of ukrainians, well, during this week we saw how the russian volunteer corps, as well as the russian freedom legion, together with the siberia battalion, went deep into russian territory in the belgorod and kursk regions. these were citizens of the russian federation who attacked russian territory and said that they were going to the election of putin. they said

that they would achieve the goal to eliminate from putin's government, why vladimir putin decided to answer not to his own citizens, but to the citizens of ukraine, those people who absolutely did not participate in these special operations, and in general live their lives in the city of odessa, putin of course. does not give an answer, i want to invite to a conversation the former head of the sbu , people's deputy of ukraine, valentin nalyvaichenko, mr. valentin, i congratulate you and thank you for being with us today, glory to ukraine , glory to the heroes, today is a rather difficult day, odessa, 20 was attacked more than 70 people died wounded, zelensky in his address said that our defense forces will definitely do everything to kill the russians.

felt our fair reaction, but what should be the fair reaction of the defense forces in order for the russian killers to feel the bitterness of loss that all ukrainians now have? we need to respond to missile terrorism with counterstrikes to destroy exactly those calculations, exactly those armed groups of russian terrorists, despite... the fact that they are in the military uniform of russia, and destroying them is the only correct answer, and i will tell you that we continued to work, we work with france, germany, and our other major european partners to obtain just such weapons systems, well, the french crotalie system is an anti-aircraft system, but we, apart from crotalie we always insist and will receive additional scalp rockets. we need faster, i think, in the coming months, the f-16 and

they will cover those missiles that will get, and most importantly destroy any russian terrorist groups, the military, which is striking both in odesa and in kharkiv and actually throughout ukraine. tonight was a restless night near kyiv, and these shaheds of theirs were restless. actually, the answer is ours, and the preparation for it is only by obtaining additional modern systems for repeated, not only shooting down, but also destruction. such systems on the territory of the russian federation. mr. valentin, during the last few days, four days , we see how the russian volunteer corps, the legion of freedom of speech and the battalion, freedom, forgive me the words, the freedom of russia, which is the same thing, almost freedom of speech, and freedom, and the battalion of siberia entered to the territory of the russian federation, in the kursk and belgorod regions. today, they did.

a humanitarian corridor for the evacuation of civilians . the rebels call on the international committee of the red cross to provide assistance to the victims. according to their data, people left the war zone last night. about 8 thousand civilian cars. from the point of view of transferring the war to the territory of the russian federation, these raids periodically carried out by the rdk, and last year it was, today, and these days , this raid is much wider, this raid is larger, which they give for ukraine and what are they, what do they threaten putin with? let's start with the main thing, what is it really in... the internal russian situation and even these last of those that we know about the strikes and raids of the siberian battalion, the red army, the russian volunteer corps and other groups, russian, by the way, this is an indicator of

how much this colossus called putin's regime has clay feet, and the fact that such forces and such groups are doing it for strengthening. information impact from such actions during the voting or on the eve voting in russia only strengthens the confidence that this is an internal russian situation. at the same time, you need to understand that i have already said that the whole of russia is not stable, and the picture that is being shown to the russians themselves with the help of tens of billions of budget funds and they are trying to show us, you know, the putin regime, that it is supposedly so strong there. this is absolutely not the case, well, let's remember the recent events of this year only: dagestan, ingushetia, the far east, and many things that the putin regime never showed throughout russia, riots, shootings, explosions, fires, and so on and so

forth, and a lot of internal russian forces, and even chechnya itself, which do not recognize the existing putin regime and fight for it. completely different, be it the russian federation, be it dagestan, be it ingushetia , or be it chechnya, this is something that will inevitably happen in russia, and my prediction is that it will only intensify, because the tension fifth, sixth, putin's slur on the russian federation, i think that a lot of the territory of the russian federation with this do not agree, there are many in the russian opposition and... do not agree with this, especially after the murder of navalny, especially after such brutal shootings and intimidation of other presidential candidates, all this in the aggregate, you know, such a cauldron that boils and time from time to time the lid jumps up and steam escapes,

but this is only the beginning, i think that these are processes that will only intensify further in russia. and tell me, please, is it possible to count on the fact that there will be an attempt in russia... a civil war was forged, you have already mentioned the enslaved peoples, not only caucasus, and the north, and this may well be the reason, or will it come to this in russia, and could it be so? i think that putin 's regime now grabs first of all the punitive special services, tries and tries to suppress at least the first leaders, whether of the opposition or of the national-confessional movements, but it is absolutely impossible, because well... the russian federation is too big, -secondly, the national liberation struggle has not just a decade, but a centuries-long history, its own movement, its leaders, in including armed formations, so my prediction is that the national liberation struggle will not stop any

putin regime in any way, and the second, the same, i predict, especially looking at how these so-called elections of this have started. year in the russian federation, i predict that the russian opposition will also be more toothy, and the protests will also increase, moreover, i have already shared with our european partners, we worked online today, and with the parliamentary assembly of the council of europe, we are serious now we discuss and we agree that the world should not recognize these elections, and the main reason for this is that if they write a victory. again to putin, this is a person who has an arrest warrant from the international criminal court. these are incompatible things, to go to some position or to some election, when you should be in gas on the dock. these are incompatible things, when

he gives, he gives orders for crimes against humanity, even today in our odesa, and this is a crime against humanity, because the second missile was deliberately aimed at the rescue. services, that is, it is really not just military a crime, and a crime in the field of international humanitarian law, that is, i have already qualified a crime against humanity, and as such... which candidate, if he is painted, can be the president of some country. the answer in international law, as in ukraine, cannot be no, so i think that this is also illegitimacy, as lukashenko is also waiting for putin. well, the fighters of the legion of freedom of russia, who descended on the territory of the russian federation, posted another video of combat operations on the territory of russia, this time they showed how they conduct mortar shelling of the positions of the russian army, and let's hear what they say. we are sending ballots for voting,

i hope they will hit the table directly to volodymyr volodymyrovych, it would be very good, because our mine elects him. mr. valentin, you said about putin's illegitimacy, possible illegitimacy, in order to recognize, or not to recognize, or rather, putin's authority, some kind of consensus is needed for... western countries to say that it is impossible to elect the president of russia on the territory of ukraine , all the votes cast for putin are illegitimate, and there is no such thing maybe it's the first, the second, you said about the warrant of the international criminal court, he is a criminal, and the criminal is certified as such by the world community, not just some district court of the krasnodar region. if, after all, some of the countries of the west do not recognize the legitimacy of putin, what will this

mean? this will mean another defeat for putin, firstly, secondly, it will mean increased support for ukraine, which has been resisting russian aggression for the third year, and in essence , putin's aggression, since he gave the first order, and until today, in that including all his orders to destroy the civilian population of ukraine and... to commit other crimes against humanity, and the international community, i assure you, especially the european union, in addition to political support, which will be even greater, will further provide economic and defense support to the armed forces of ukraine, and just before your broadcast of the confirmation of our words with you on the air, let 's say that scholz, macron and tusk came to the press conference, these three countries met. the weimar triangle, so -called, the leaders of these countries, france, germany, poland, and what, and there is a decision that the profits

from the frozen assets of the russian federation in the european union are already directed and will continue to be directed to ukraine for support, for the support of our defense and countering aggression , these are billions of euros, and this is today's decision , here i am the main conclusion is that with the beginning of such so-called... elections in russia and absolutely fake elections in the temporarily occupied territories of ukraine, the position of the european union and our other partners on the anti-putin of the coalition, is changing in the direction of strengthening support for ukraine, and you know, greater firmness is appearing, this is especially inspiring to french president macron, and now we have just mentioned what they announced at the press conference about the confiscation. of russian money and profits, this is a cool step , this is a cool step, and we

have been waiting for it for a very long time and we have been working on it for a very long time with our european partners, since i am in the parliament right now in the committee on ukraine's integration into the european union, and we will to congratulate our partners with such step by step and ask to proceed more to the confiscation and sending of the aggressor's money to ukraine. now, mr. valentin, we will hear exactly what olaf scholz said after the meeting. with macron and tusk at a meeting held in berlin. let's listen. it is clear that we support ukraine, and it is also clear that we ourselves are not at war with russia. our common goal is to provide effective protection of ukraine against russian aggression. we will use surplus profits from russian assets that are frozen in europe to finance the russian

the president should know that our support for ukraine will not stop. well, it would be desirable if scholz spoke not only about the frozen assets, but also the fact that the frozen assets can be used for the purchase of long-range taurus missiles, which are to come to ukraine. that is why, in your opinion, mr. valentin, scholz, despite all the rhetoric, is quite aggressive, i would say. said, or macron's leadership rhetoric, scholz is all that, well, every time he makes excuses that they cannot give us these taurus missiles, there was a vote in budnistaz yesterday, they failed this vote. germans say about the fact that we cannot do this, because it will mean that, well, we will be involved in shelling, including the territory of crimea, which is legally ukrainian, but which is under the russian federation, why are the germans so afraid, or is it here are the consequences of what happened in the second world war, are there

any other caveats in them, well, let's start with the main thing, crimea was, is and will be ukrainian. there are no doubts, and this is not only in ukraine, but also in the un, in all the resolutions of the general assembly, to the main point, well, let's give a little time to mr. scholz, mr. chancellor of germany, because to come out with such a statement today, believe me, it is really a huge step, and i think that the french president has just shown leadership and convinced, and most importantly, convinced his partners in the key economy of the european union, to go for the confiscation of ... profits and direct to whom it is not easy to direct , here and there it was crystal clear, clearly announced by the chancellor of germany that they are going to purchase weapons for the armed forces of ukraine, that is the main thing, now about missiles, i am telling you as a person who led and continues to lead directly negotiations with german partners, we will solve the issue in the near future, only

one thing, i have already said about it, i can repeat it, it will not be sent directly to ukraine, but through one of the third parties. countries of our key partners, but the issue of long-range , concrete-piercing, high-precision missiles , whatever their name, but including german -made ones, too, i think, will be resolved in the near future, and here the most important thing is that we must understand that a missile in itself or rockets, you know, this is the first step, the most important thing to get both guidance systems and to train specialists who can use them, and most importantly - from where to launch these additional serious high-precision missiles, i will not reveal all the military secrets to you, but it is simply so that you understand the complex of issues that are discussed at such negotiations are being resolved, the only thing that can be said is that these issues are being resolved positively, and give it some time, i think there will be more news and more specifics. on the night of march 15, ukrainian drones hit

an oil refinery in kalutka region of the russian federation and... drone attacks over the past few days have led to the shutdown of three oil refineries deep inside russia, which make up about 12% of the russian federation's oil refining capacity, well, at least that's how blumerg calculates. gasoline prices in russia reached a six-month high amid drone strikes on refineries. can we say, mr. valentin, that russia is from the country of gas stations. is gradually turning into a beggar country and it is on this way, because oil and what comes from oil, i.e. all products, they were the core at the expense of which russia also built its army and invested millions and billions in the defense complex absolutely exactly, absolutely exactly you

say, and it was oil and gas dollars that financed the war against us? and they finance now, just as they finance the punitive special services inside the country, and in fact the entire putin regime, they do not stand on anything else and do not share with anyone, with their own citizens, absolutely, there is full, you know, like a desert and begging, if leave, especially from moscow and or st. petersburg, but i will return to of the oil and gas complex, well, let 's start with the fact that, for example, the lukoil company has turned into shbenytsia under the management, there are already about ten. the top manager is liquidated under the guise of hanging or poisoning, and so on and so forth, such processes are going on with them. next: why is this happening, why are top managers or people who have serious profits in their oil and gas companies, oil or gas, eliminated? and the answer is very simple, because the organization of contraband

trade in oil with or through contraband is yes the so-called... tanker fleet has concentrated huge billions of dollars, but where is it in the hands of smugglers, where is it in the hands of the very people who are now hanging each other, destroying each other and so on, and all this is happening inside russia. why do i give this as an example, because in fact, even these profits from such , you know, black oil trade around the world, through bogus or other tankers , money was not actually given to the budget of russia, to crime and to... criminal showdowns, now about the oil refineries and the fact that they are burning and hitting them, well, that's it is taking place on the territory of the russian federation, it is being destroyed. their oil refining potential, but the most important thing here, serhiy, is that the aggressor's troops will not receive more,

so much fuel, because we, all of us who did not leave, i never left ukraine during the war and from kyiv, and from the kyiv region, we saw that when the occupier temporarily entered chernihiv, they were the first to pull, that, correctly , such gas pipelines are artificial, because without it no equipment, no army can move, and especially russian, because russian tanks - these are soviet tanks, and they spend tons of fuel in order to cover 100-200 km, and imagine if more, in a word, without fuel, without such a supply, the russian army is not that moving, cannot and will not be able to fight , so this is the first serious reason why it is good that the oil refining complex is being destroyed, but also the second serious circumstance, in the russian federation there is no and... there will be no more technologies, equipment and techniques to replace these capacities or the equipment that is being destroyed with something and burns in the daytime and

at night, here are two things that you should really pay attention to, i think that bloomberg and other economic publications of the world will pay more attention to the fact that russia has nothing to replace, there is no way to repair those capacities that have burned down or will be burn. mr. valentin, during the last week two important statements were made regarding russian agents in ukraine. first, the special operation perun, about which the main intelligence agency warns that russian agents will be activated for russian information and psychological special operations, and the statement of one of the leaders of the belinket hristo grozev that there is a network of agents of the russian federation in ukraine among politicians and public figures, that they took money from the russian federation, and khrestogroziv's investigation about these agents will soon come out, what can you say about this

network, which obviously exists, or let's say, it is a dormant network, that is, hidden and sooner or later it will become active, and it is up to... representatives of the ukrainian state to find and protect themselves from these russian agents as quickly as possible it is necessary, especially now during martial law, that intelligence information be at the disposal of counter-intelligence, that is, the sbu, and for this it is necessary that the sbu right here and now begin to eliminate, detain, identify , and so on, any enemy agency, and i i know that the power of the means is sufficient, as well as the specialists of the security service of ukraine, i simply call on everyone who has or becomes aware of such information. report suspicions to our counter-intelligence agents, they will handle it, i have no doubts about that, especially, i repeat during martial law, all the more so since the 14th year i myself with international partners

did a lot to ensure that modern equipment, modern technologies, cyber equipment appeared, and most importantly, young patriotic officers were trained and they are trained to to effectively delay and neutralize any network, any agency, or the operative agent. whether subversive. second, about beelked investigators. i do not stop working and cooperating with international investigators. next week i will have serious work with documentarians, just from bellingket and other international organizations that helped at that time, and now the trial of those who committed a terrorist act against the malaysian boeing in the sky of ukraine in july 2013 has already taken place in gaza. i am saying that... i know these people well and what they do, that is why the statements of one of the investigators, mr. groziv, i think that the british and

american partners already know who exactly mr. groziv was talking about, i only hope that in the near future, through such partnerships with the cia, and with mi-5 and mi-6, the service security of ukraine and other special services of ukraine receive information and will be able to check it without well, at the very end of our conversation, the law on mobilization between the second and between the first and second readings, for some reason there was a big pause, 4 thousand amendments, in this question, the question of the law on mobilization, is there more of a political or military component? there is no political will in this matter, and we saw this firsthand on march 14, when... it was, when we all came to the verkhovna rada, i mean the opposition, the fatherland faction, everyone voted 100%, especially for the decision and resolution of the verkhovna rada

that we... will never recognize fake elections in the temporarily occupied territories, after that the representatives of the mono majority left, well, after the alarm, so what, after the alarm, we returned to our workplaces, they they all disagreed on that, so i tell you absolutely responsibly, there is no political will and political presence of a monomajority within the parliament, i think that they need to figure it out, and then everything will fall into place, well, the first thing for them, probably volodymyr to zelenskyi... as the leader of this monomajority and in general, i would not say, you know, that this is not a kindergarten, that they constantly have to, you know, point to a portrait or to the president, well, they are people's deputies, well, the president has the supreme power the commander -in-chief, he has his own job, as we see every day and every night, people's deputies, here i am, my belief is that they should also work 24/7, and their place should be returned to them, i don't know where they all

really are. we traveled and on what business trips, but it's time to return and work. thank you, mr. valentin, for you conversation, it was valentyn nalyvaichenko, people's deputy of ukraine, former head of the security service of ukraine. friends, we work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on youtube and facebook, if you watch us on youtube, take part in the vote. today we ask you about whether the west will dare to send its troops to ukraine. yes, no, everything is quite simple on youtube , if you have a separate opinion, leave it in the comments below this video, if you are watching us on tv, pick up your smartphone and vote if you think that the west will dare to send its troops to ukraine 0.800 211 381, no 0800 211 382, ​​all calls to these numbers are free, vote. next we have yevhen magda, executive director of the institute of world politics, mr. yevhen, i congratulate you, thank

you for being with us today. congratulations, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, well, since we are asking our viewers and tv viewers what they think, whether the west will dare to send its troops to ukraine, i will ask you about it too. i proceed from the logic that people who think about their own the next election will not make a similar decision. this means. that germany and france , germany and poland, that is, olaf scholz and donald tusk, well, i am talking about the participants of today's meeting of the weimar triangle, first of all, they most likely will not go to this, while emmanuel macron, who is in his second presidential term , and has a certain space to react, to this, mr. yevgeny, macron actually

started this big discussion, whether these foreign troops will be on the territory of ukraine or not, he spoke with hints, some conversations with leaders of the political forces of france, in an interview with tf-1 and france 2, he said that the war in ukraine is existential for europe and for france, but he ruled out the possibility that french troops would attack russia. let's hear what macron said. we will never be on the offensive, we will never take the initiative. france is a force for peace, but today, in order to have peace in ukraine, we must not be weak, so we must soberly look at the situation with determination, will and courage to say that we are ready to invest resources to achieve our goal, which is that russia does not win. well,

that is... he said that the offensive against russia will not be led by france, but i understand that he does not rule out the transfer of separate forces of the french army to ukraine. information appeared earlier, in the event that the russians will advance on kyiv or odesa, after all, what is on macron's mind, on his tongue, we hear about what he says, and what he thinks? i believe that emmanuel macron. started a game, a political game for informal leadership in europe, a position similar to that which in his time occupied by angela merkel during her chancellorship, but angela merkel's position was based primarily on...
