what is the option? well, he says: well, if, for example, they tell you that the money is a loan, or you will not receive it, i say, what are these elections for, if there is no choice, well, let's talk openly, so we will agree to any option, i will tell you more if you offered to give ukraine a package today on credit today, or without... expensive everything in a year, then we would say, only today, there is no choice here, our choice is only one, to survive and win. fires and explosions in the belgorod region in russia, there was a lot of noise this night in the shebekin and graivoron city districts of the region, says governor gladkov. an unknown drone allegedly dropped explosives on the village of leninske, a fire broke out in a private house, and in the village of dronovka , two cars burned down,

gas transmission lines were damaged. and in the russian city of orsk keeps everything floating. the situation in the orenburg region due to the breach of the dam remains difficult. are involved in the ministry of emergency situations of russia. there were two damages at the vorsk dam, and it is believed that the flow was stopped in one of them. but the water continues to flood the city. the situation is difficult in other settlements of the region. in orenburg, water has already reached high-rise buildings. in the meantime, estonia found a million shells for ukraine, but money is needed for their purchase - the country's defense minister said. anno peevkur. the cost of ammunition is from two to three billion euros. projectiles can be bought both in europe and abroad. by combining the czech and estonian initiatives, ukraine will be able to receive 2.2.5 million projectiles this year. but the condition is that

the allies will allocate funds for this. the pro-government candidate in slovakia, peter pellegrini , won the presidential election. now he strengthened the influence of pro... russian prime minister robert fitzo on the country. palagrini received more than 53% of the vote, while pro-western opposition candidate ivan korchok scored just under 47% and has already conceded defeat. she lit up the stage with new songs. group dead pivenyu presented the wonderwaffe program to his native lviv for the first time. translated from german, it means miracle. weapon. musicians call it a symbol of our indomitability and retribution for russian crimes. masters of ukrainian rock and roll took the stage with both legendary hits and new works from wonderwafe's unfinished album of the same name. with this program, the legendary band

is starting a tour of ukrainian cities from the beginning of may. it was born from the fact that we are gradually collecting many new compositions, which. absolutely have a different philosophy, they are in one way or another marked by the time in which we live, by the war, by everything else, including songs based on verses that are not bayraktarshchyna, actually such military ones, there are still other ideas, and we think so, yes , well , we need to call our concert something, and this miracle weapon was born completely by accident, and now our promoter says that the whole tour will be called wunderwafe, so today during the concert we are just its wunderwa. wonderful weapon, we will show it, and we have several of them, a film was shown in the swedish city of gothenburg

after watching shadows of forgotten ancestors, they discussed the figure of the iconic director serhiy peredzhanov and the challenges facing ukrainian culture. the event took place in the city hall. the gothenburg theater showed the film with english subtitles. my colleague yuliya kyzyk will tell you more. veronika with her mother and younger brother came to sweden as refugees. here, the girl actively attends demonstrations in support of ukraine and tells foreigners about the war. veronika says that she has been interested in ukrainian literature and cinema for a long time, and wants to tell swedes about it as much as possible. even. literally, our cultures are often used against us, or destroyed, or stolen, so the cultural plan, everything related to it, is very important to protect and preserve, not only for ukrainians, but also for other nationalities. i believe that it is important

to raise awareness of ukrainian culture, in particular, that ukrainian culture exists. this particular country and this particular culture exist because, in my opinion, many people in europe, or in general in the world, are not really knowledgeable about ukrainian culture. dmitry plaks works in a theater field in sweden for 30 years, this year he became a dramatist in the production of the ukrainian play bad roads by natalka vorozhbyt in sweden. it was the first modern ukrainian play staged in a swedish theater with swedish actors. crying says, ukrainian culture should be opened to swedes, because currently there is no broad understanding of this in society. i don't think that the awareness of ukrainian culture in sweden is at the desired level today, but it is growing, unfortunately,

thanks to the war. activists for two years in a row organize weekly demonstrations in support of ukraine in the city center. they want ukrainian culture to be present in sweden for a long time. term perspective. this event is aimed at swedish society to tell them about ukrainian culture, as it was before, as it is now. ukraine now. in all the news, a lot of swedes know ukraine through eurovision, for example, because ukrainian songs occupy its high places, but still i wanted ukrainian culture to be present here in sweden, under any conditions, under any conditions, er, not only during war. yuliya kyzyk for espresso tv channel. it is interesting to learn more. and up-to-date information, subscribe to our site espresso.tv, as well as our social networks, search for

how was your morning today, how is it quiet, calm, this morning was quiet, thank you, our boys, our girls, our air defense forces and the armed forces of ukraine in general, so you see, i didn’t even sleep a little today, because you were working a lot, you could not contact you for a long time. on the air, that's why today, you see, i'm glad to see you, you worked a lot, we understand what kind of work you have, yes, yes, we worked, which means, we worked a lot, and this is the result of something, constant assault actions, which are in our direction, yes, you know, everyone knows that we are in one of the most difficult directions, that is... bakhmutsky direction, chasov direction, ivanovske, so

we constantly have assault actions from the enemy's side, and of course, our guys are not they give, they do not graze the rear, there were assault actions from our side, successful assault actions, so we had a lot of work, but we established ourselves, completed the task set, everything is fine, we are holding our positions, do not lose. no position from our side, so is there a sense that the russians are preparing for their offensive that they do they say in may-june? and that, as you can say, constantly, after avdiivka was closed, our boys left avdiivka, then they transferred their forces, we are on our way. er, they immediately felt what a cab was like, we didn’t have such a thing before, they didn’t use

such heavy weapons, there were other missiles, they constantly gave us er here, so to speak, nightmares, er, they were lancets, that is , also other rockets, rockets, so to speak, but we didn't have a cab, when we left for avdiivka, we experienced on our own what a cab is that night, and now constant, constant shelling, these guided aerial bombs are constantly working, if... the forces are tightening, of course, that is why the assault actions have intensified, but so far, yesterday's offensive, yes, the day before yesterday was successfully repulsed, the enemy had a lot of destroyed equipment, and we they still held their positions, as now, in

principle, everything that is necessary for field medics, do you have enough cars now, is it enough? yes, i wanted to thank everyone who joined our gathering, i'm sorry, i couldn't go on the air earlier, thank you, yes we have finished repairing all the cars that we needed for yuak, also, of course , they were already damaged and these cars have been repaired, but they are in order, we are evacuating successfully, if everything is, there are enough cars at the moment, there are enough people, the most important thing is also that , what we work on, our main tactical medicine, tourniquets, bandages, occlusions, thank you to our volunteers, everyone who joins, always helps, always sends, that is, we are provided for today, mrs. tatyana, i also rely on what i hear there, myself,

you say that time is also yours responsibility, recently the russians in general... that they almost captured the time of the ravine, went into the vicinity of the house to the time of the ravine far away, this is all a bluff again, this is all they informationally want to disrupt if this peace in our population, but this is not true, to at the time of the ravine, they still have to go, and i think they will not reach it and it will be very difficult for them, if even they have something in this direction, then it will be very difficult for them to capture precisely... sivyar, because we it has been there for a long time, the armed forces of ukraine have been there for more than a year, you understand that we are fixed, that is, everything is fine with us in this direction already in the spring of time, so what they say, they say a lot, they wanted to take donetsk region by the new year, and they said that everything was successful, but

they no step was taken, well, for that, except for avdiivka. of course, they had no success at all, and avdiivka, you understand, were also forced, if the actions of the command, but the boys did not retreat, we did not retreat, yes, such a decision was made by the higher command, it was the right decision with from my point of view, but after all, the fighters did not give up, mrs. tatyana, i visited your facebook page and... you have a terrible video there, although you write that this is your daily work, and you remind people that , that it is necessary to support the war, do you have time in your daily work to follow the news that is happening, far from the front, but it does not concern at all, there is no at all, if you were to follow the news, i

learned from your broadcast last time that it would be useful if from... changed to another commander-in-chief, for me it was at all with shock and great surprise, but i don’t follow, honestly, i don’t follow, even, sometimes, sometimes, maybe in the telegram channels of some of my friends, former soldiers, yes, who are currently running telegram channels there, they will see some information, but here what i see here in my direction, where i am, nothing else at all, in particular, there is simply no time, and honestly, not much ... there is a desire to read and look at these invaders, let's say, what they are doing there, what the hell, but if we are not talking about the invaders, but talking about news from our authorities, for example, this week, maybe you will hear from us again, but your reaction is interesting,

this week president zelensky finally signed the law on lowering the mobilization age, how long? is your war going on, how long is the war of your brothers going on, how are you in general, have you discussed it among yourselves, that now the younger ones will be drafted from the age of 25? we had 19 -year-old boys who faced this full-scale war, and even in the mariupol direction, because our battalion met the russian federation during their offensive, we have a lot of... guys died, three, just in my mouth , three 19-year-old boys died, of course i believe that these are children, well, they are children, they have nothing else to do. if at war, but there is another side of the coin. 25 years old - an adult boy, who, who, if not we will defend this land, again, i

return to this question, because no one but us, no one will come to us to protect their parents, protect their women, their children, yes, our women stand on the defense of our territorial integrity, so they help... work, serve, so what about speech, we are not talking about 20-year-old guys, 25 years old, in principle, is a mature enough age to make decisions and be responsible for your decisions, that is, to be responsible, for that, many guys come on their own, many younger guys come by themselves, want to mobilize , want to go to war, of course it is probably so youthful... maximalism still plays in them, but many of these guys are successful, they become commanders, there is a guy in my unit, yes, he is 21

years old, but he is eager and he is already ordinary a soldier rose to the rank of commander of a small unit, because he has success, he has a desire, so i believe that the authorities make such decisions because of hopelessness, probably because... that people are running out, we are running out of those who want to fight, of course, such laws have to be adopted, but i believe that the issue is not the law, the issue is that people should be, understand for themselves who should do it, and who should go to this army in order to protect our land, now it's... uh, it's not about service, yes, now it's about protecting our country, we we all know that the state owes us, but everyone forgets that we owe this state, yes

, we all read the constitution, we all owe it to us, it is our territorial integrity, so be, well, if you were conscious, sorry for such a word, accept a decision for myself and... then we will have a better situation, i think we corresponded with you a few months ago, and you actually talked about the need to somehow help with the collection, and you had such a thing, i felt according to the mood, that this is some kind of impasse, because somehow the collection is a little bit decreased, i understand that these meetings are like that, you know, they move like this, sometimes up, then down, people complain, then somehow at one moment everyone for some reason... stops complaining, then this wave rises again, now according to your feelings, people remember that the war is going on, there is no such thing as a war somewhere there, and we are

here somewhere, and do not interfere with us to live our lives, i mean, that is, it was one and such a gathering the most healthy and large one, which i have included many people, that is, i am generally a gathering i'm not particularly busy, so i have another one, you see, i was rarely in touch with everything, but i have a lot. many volunteer friends who of course help me, this is both tactical medicine and different, that is, all the little things that we need in the service, of course people donate and donate large sums, there are people who donate constantly and large sums, that is, you know , i don't know how to take it, some take it as a ransom, well , every month, even the volunteers say, that is , well, they drop there... 10 thousand each month and believe that they played their part, that is , they played a role in this, but i do not think so, i believe that, of course, by now people are tired,

people are getting tired, and everyone's life goes on, no matter what, the war, of course, not you have to forget that it's a war, but everyone has children, everyone has families, parents, and of course, meetings are also tiring, i understand that too, and sometimes i even watch telegram. channels, permanent fees, of course, of course people are tired, because everyone pays taxes, that's why many people wonder why we still have to pay, but unfortunately, we don't have enough of those taxes, those funds that we have, so of course we have to give, we have to help, er, i can't say that the civilians there forget or don't help, of course, er, that's all is supported by donations from civilians, er... i am very grateful to everyone for these donations, that's why it just sometimes goes down like that, it's usually, well, if it's due to

a delay in salary or something else. someone, but when , well, that is, everything enters into a rhythm, is restored again, my volunteers for tactical medicine quickly gather, especially with there are no problems with this at all, that is, tactics, people understand what tactics are, that they really save lives, you really save lives in the most direct sense, so in principle, you are still silent about the fact that the military themselves use their salaries, because sometimes people say , but you have huge salaries there on the front lines, the military themselves, i’m in the 22nd year, when it was not yet, yes, when we were in general hopeless, for example, i was in the trenches, yes, in the literal sense, sometimes, sometimes in we had outings, when once a month i could go somewhere for free land, that's what i call it, uh, of course, i'm at my own expense, as a doctor, i had a whole mouth on me, yes, i bought all the medicines with my own money, everything, because guys in general, if

i'm like... a woman, i'm me there were still some , you could say indulgences, and they let me out there once a month, well, that is, escorted , of course, everything, but i went, i could buy some products there, then the guys in general, that is, from the point of view of the situation, so of course i understood it, if i i won't provide my boys with medicine, elementary medicines, that's against it colds, yes, from headaches, even that analgin of some kind, or even ibuprofen, that's why... of course, yes, doctors at their own expense. the 22nd year, i say to myself, was completely on the doctors, units. now, i want it to be much easier in my case, because i have a lot of volunteers, that is, without asking, of course, what medicines we need are provided to us, many who offer help themselves, if only their own, so of course it is now a little easier, but

about big salaries, we... the military, i am everyone, let them go to my facebook page, there are my contacts, i am anyone, who wants, i will send it to our management, they will provide a reconciliation, as it is called, a letter, and go ahead, in a couple of days you will be in our unit, and earn money, ukrainians, earn money, i'm all for it, thank you. very much for the conversation and for the humor, in fact, which also probably saves tatyana lisitsyn, the company medic of one of the aydar assault battalions from the bakhmut direction joined us, there was not always an opportunity even to smile, but i, but i am surprised, i am surprised at that , that no matter how many times we talk with mrs. tatyana, and always somehow difficult, but she finds some such

and such something. something positive to talk about, despite the fact that her work is not positive at all, if you go to her page, watch the videos, not even all the videos she posts there, we can show them on the air, because well, this these are difficult shots, these are difficult shots for and for the human psyche, dear friends, that is why we remember our military, help them, donate, support them in any possible way, remind in this way that we are not separated ... from them that we remember that in our country is at war, and we remember who helps hold the front and who blocks the russian onslaught. qr codes, card numbers on their screens you see, 93 brigade, 72 brigade, will be extremely grateful to you that they get fpv drones. we need a lot of fpv drones, there are never too many of them, 2 million uah is the amount we want

to collect, and we are for this. there are some 55,000 left, so that 55,000, so that we have 500,000, if only for today, and this will already be a fourth part of the amount we are collecting. then there will be an interview on our air vitaly portnikova with director and film producer alex garland, and andriy seichuk and i will be back later, stay with espresso. congratulations, mr. garland, and let's begin with the plot of your new film and the script. 19 states seceded. the united states army is ramping up the intensity. the white house warns both western powers and the florida alliance. elected for a third term, the president promises to quickly put down the rebellion. want to try something on? and you are aware that there is a real civil war going on all over america. we are out politics judging again.
