the concert we will show just her wonder weapon, and we have several of them. the first large-scale exhibition of maria prymachenko opened in poland . 89 works of the artist, which were brought to poland from lviv, were presented at the exhibition in warsaw. our maria chernyakhivska will tell how poles react to the work of a ukrainian native and whether they were familiar with her before. on the day of the opening , hundreds of people came to the museum of modern... art in warsaw, there was a queue of people wanting to see maria's works at the door of the institution all evening long primachenko. the exhibition is called "tiger in the garden". this artist is not widely known in poland, she became popular recently with the beginning of a full-scale war and is one of the key

artists who talks about the independence of ukrainian culture. on the second day of a full-scale invasion of the ivankiv historical and local history museum in the kyiv region , a russian hit. it became the most painful cultural event in the world, that is, when it happened, we were written non-stop. all the most famous world editions of america, europe, canada, the whole world started talking about maria prymachenko, because it was unacceptable to the world that during the war, in violation of all norms, all agreements, art is destroyed. the works presented in warsaw are stored in the andrii sheptytskyi national museum in lviv and belong to a private collector. here you can see all the key themes of creativity. maria prymachenko, this is the struggle between good and evil, ukrainian nature, animals, fantastic beasts, life in the village, folklore

motifs, as well as paintings on topics that worried the artist at one time or another, for example, in the mid-1980s, she created a series of works called atomic war, be damned , she created such an atypical image for herself on a dark black background, such a terrible beast, in fact, in which she depicted this terrible threat of atomic war and. .. and besides, in general, war very often appears in her works, as such an image of a terrible monster, which, i think, by the very fact that she paints it, she gives herself the opportunity to be less afraid of this threat, because she has experienced it all her life influenced by memory about the second world war and the horrors of this war. the exhibition is organized as a gesture of solidarity between poland and ukraine and aims to present the work of mstkina abroad . many poles are not hearing about the ukrainian artist for the first time. i saw

maria prymachenko's works for the first time in photographs from an exhibition in lviv. in 2022. i was struck by their colors. i was delighted, a beast with such human eyes. i saw these works for the first time, i read a little about the artist beforehand. the colors of these images are inspired by symbols imagination to one's own reading of these paintings. we have our own interpretations. i say something, and my friend answers. i am already familiar with the art of maria primachenko, because we were once in kyiv and went to her exhibition there, were impressed, bought an album with her works, later also in a clothing store, saw the outfit we wore today from the collection of maria primachenko, and when i saw that there would be an exhibition, i decided that we must be here. for ukrainians living in poland, maria prymachenko's work evokes memories of childhood and at home calmness, and this is like such a hope that everything

will be fine in ukraine, the cherry orchard will be revived, and the nightingales will sing, and finally we will not hear explosions, and we will not tremble, and we will not be afraid for our children, for ours, so be it will be, the exhibition of maria prymachenko's paintings will last until the end of june at the museum of modern art in warsaw. maria chernyakhivska, ihor antoniuk, for espresso tv channel from poland. search for espresso on youtube and be sure to subscribe, because there are live broadcasts of ateru, all program releases and special projects that can only be seen here, also a short video on a hot topic in the shorts section, subscribe, comment, because your opinions are important to us, be with us every day, and to learn more interesting and relevant information, follow the updates on our website spreso.tv and our social networks, we see you in less than an hour.

congratulations, the real front program is on the air, and i, taras berezovyts, am with you. 30. on march 1, the whole world remembered the tragedy of the ukrainian settlement of bucha in the kyiv region. two years ago, the city was de-occupied a symbol of the atrocities of the russian army. according to the official statistics of the buchansk city council, about 700 civilians were killed during the occupation. but it is still impossible to calculate the exact number of victims, including because many buchanans disappeared during the time... when the russians were in this city. so, let's remember what pain

the brilliant liberators turned into for ordinary ukrainians. more details in our next story. march 31 is the second anniversary of the liberation of bucha, kyiv region, from the russian invaders. bucha was under occupation 33 days. the occupiers entered the city with heavy equipment on the morning of february 27, at the same time. the russian army struck residential buildings. on the same day, the mayor anatoly fedorchuk reported on the first destruction and casualties. practically every house, apartment, social facility in the city was occupied, and. local residents became hostages. in total, 509 civilians, including men, women and children, died during the occupation of bucha. 62 people are considered missing, and 73 people are still held captive by the invaders. before the full-scale invasion of buchi, there were 53,000 inhabitants, during the occupation there were about 2,500 inhabitants. the troops of the russian federation

left the city only on march 31, 2022, under the pressure of our security and defense forces, as well as... volunteer formations. at that time, the deputy mayor of kyiv, a former policeman, and now a military man, andrii kryshchenko, was a member of one of these dftg. we had such a small unit, which was assigned the task of going through such a swampy area of ​​the irpin river, to get out and to establish a position in a certain area. on that, well before that there were many battles, guys, directly and arrows and well, during march, it all happened, at this time, i understand , well, then we understood that the russians were fleeing, retreating, and maybe someone was chasing our units there, we didn’t have any combat or anything like that, and we passed our guys, it was abandoned there, they found

several tracks with ammunition, the cars were abandoned, eh, what... i testified that they took off very quickly and left, and there was, of course, a lot of civilian equipment, there were people, we saw corpses lying civilians, who later the police there documented this crime. andriy kryshchenko says, at that time we already understood that this was a cruel enemy, we would not be able to come to an agreement with him, so there was only one option left, to destroy the occupiers, and at that time there were such opportunities. directly... the entire second brigade had enough of its means of destruction, quite intensively, and in fact, well, all the columns that we saw were stopped when the russians applied all this with artillery, then, well , it was very pleasant to watch when in buch, on this station street, the column of equipment was marching. well this

the first thing that i saw there during application. this bairaktar, when he effectively bombed it, behold, javilins saw how they work, this was the first time i had such a thing too, it was interesting, but there were enough weapons in our immediate detachment, then small arms, some infantry weapons, grenade launchers , how much is enough, not exactly how much is needed, in war there is always something missing directly from the unit, but... well, to cause losses to the enemy. ukraine needs to use all its forces and capabilities to defeat the russian army and in no case not to stop, because this is a unique chance to destroy the enemy, - says andriy kryshchenko. we will win when everyone starts doing something to win, everyone, uh, every person, there, no, everyone who is in the rear will work, everyone who

has to fight, will fight, but this is a long-term struggle, well, in general, and we already with russia. we have been fighting for 300 years, this is a long-term struggle, and i can say, well, in my opinion, this is a unique chance for ukraine in general, when for the first time, for all these 300 years, the whole world supports us, and we simply cannot stop it. anger and also violence russian invaders during the occupation of buchi were absolutely unprecedented. the whole world. i held my breath when ukrainian civilians told their own stories, and the most tragic of them turned out to be the story of buchanska street yablunska, where the bodies of several dozen murdered ukrainians were found. the reason why the russians behaved so defiantly in buch was obviously that

they failed to realize their plans to capture kyiv. it so happened that the russian offensive... twisted from gostomel, then through bucha, irpin, in the direction of kyiv, but right here in buchi on vokzalnyi street, a russian military column was mercilessly burned by ukrainian defenders, this brought the russians into a state of absolute fury. the first units of russian occupiers appeared in buch on february 27, 2022, but then they failed to capture the city. fierce battles continued for days, when finally, approximately on march 30, russian units began to enter the city, although the word "enter" does not deter. the real horror of what was happening: russian columns with the letters v and z began to shoot everything around, including the cars of ukrainians who

tried to evacuate. among the dead were women, children, as well as elderly ukrainians. lists of ukrainian ato veterans, as well as all those who could offer at least some resistance, aroused special interest among russian prosecutors. collaborators provided lists of ukrainian patriots into the hands of russian punishers, in particular from the rosguard, as well as kadyriv units. those of them who did not have time to retreat with the ukrainian troops, they say, they are alive, they are actors whose arms and legs move, who are pulled by ropes. it is clear that all this caused real indignation flows not only among ukrainians, but also among all civilizations. people of the world now , two years after the terrible tragedy in buch, especially on yablunska street, the key question is when

the russian occupiers will be found and punished. the president of ukraine , volodymyr zelenskyy, said that a major offensive by russia is expected in may-june, and the ukrainian military is currently not ready to defend itself. we need weapons, we need help now - said the president of ukraine. in turn, the commander-in-chief. ssu, colonel-general oleksandr syrskyi v in an interview with the abc news channel, he said that he does not rule out that the russian occupiers may dare to attack kyiv again. commander-in-chief sirsky noted that russia's actions in belarus may indeed indicate the russians are preparing to once again try to transfer hostilities to new territories. but according to the head of the committee, in this way russia again risks stretching its forces in the north. about the possible offensive of the russians later in our story. a new offensive by the russians is expected in may-june, he

said in an interview with the american channel cbc news said the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelenskyi. he said that the ukrainian military was able to restrain the attack of the russian army in the winter and stabilize the situation, but he emphasized that it is difficult to fight the invaders due to the shortage of artillery and shells. the situation in the east is currently stabilized as far as it is... perhaps, looking at the shortage of weapons, ammunition and looking at the fact that we are starting to prepare brigades for the relevant actions that are important to us. the situation is better than two or three months ago - said president zelensky. he emphasized that although his troops had succeeded so far deter the russians, ukraine is not ready for another major russian offensive, which is expected around the end of may or june. and before that, we must not only stabilize the situation, because the partners are sometimes happy that we have stabilized, they say: "okay, you have the forces, no, we need help now to... prepare the brigades that will have to fight when russia will begin a counteroffensive, zelenskyy said. volodymyr zelenskyy also reminded that russia has an advantage not only in the number of artillery, but in its range, so ukraine needs the u.s.

patriot missile defense systems and more artillery. tens of billions remain in the us, he said. let's be honest, the money that congress allocates, the administration. in most cases, 80% of this money, at least more than 75%, stays in the us. ammunition is coming. us, but the production takes place there, and the money stays in the us, and the taxes stay in the us. at the same time, the journalists of the british publication zeconmyst predict that it will be much more difficult to contain the new major offensive of russia than at the beginning of a full-scale invasion, because the defense forces of ukraine belatedly began to strengthen their defensive positions. ukraine was also very late in strengthening its own defense positions. to some extent this is understandable. the government is still dreaming of a new counter-offensive and fears the idea that the current front line might change. to something very similar to a border that cuts off a fifth of the country and deprives it of most of its access to the sea. the idea that this line could become central to future peace talks is

something mr. zelenskyy wanted to avoid. but now the danger is so great that it the least bad option. in recent weeks , the diggers have moved, the dragon's teeth are sowing, it should have started much earlier, pray that it will not be too late, writes the economist. but ukrainian military experts reassure us that there is currently no large-scale war in russia. offensive of the required amount of artillery, missiles, aviation. vrf has only one main resource - people. oleksandr kovalenko is convinced that it is impossible to win during appropriate offensive actions with only human resources. if we are talking, for example, about the rapture kharkiv and kharkiv region, for this the russians need to form a strike group on the territory of belgorod region, quantitatively at least 500 thousand personnel. in addition to everything else, these thousands of personnel should have at least a reserve of 100-150,000, this is exactly the amount that will allow them to enter kharkiv oblast from

bilhorod oblast. surround kharkiv and start urban battles, while it is not yet a fact that these urban battles will be successful for them, so the reserve will be used, and even this reserve may not be enough. oleksandr kovalenko is convinced that even after enlisting the support of belarus, neither kharkiv nor kyiv, which are much larger cities, will not be able to be captured by the occupiers. it has more of a devalued network of streets, avenues, quarters, the subway, and not only that, that is... the capture of kyiv requires even more resources than the capture of kharkiv, no belarusian army will help here, what is the belarusian army, a combat-ready part of the belarusian army - this is a little more than 15,000 personnel, this is a combat-ready component of the ground forces, which that's 15,000, that's two weeks of fighting in ukraine for the russian occupation forces, on average now we see that the russians

are losing... from 25 to 29 thousand personnel, that is, 15,000 is 50%. and if we are talking about some offensive actions, quite active, personal night, where a rather dense line of defense, hypertrophied, was already formed during the second half of the 22nd and throughout the 23rd year, i would say yes, general naiv, there he really contributed such enthusiasm. the formation of these defense lines, that it is even a zaporozhian line surovykina, which is very often mentioned, it is nothing compared to the naiva line, and yes, if the belarusian army goes there in this direction, it is only on the minefields in the first line of defense, which is the support strip, only there it will be completely leveled , so that's all, and there is no belarusian army, according to

the commander of the sukhop. troops of ukraine general oleksandr pavlyuk. the russians are now busy mobilizing at least 100,000 troops to be used in the offensive on kharkiv. there is such a probability that on at the beginning of summer, they may already have certain forces to carry out appropriate offensive operations in one of the directions, the commander of the ground forces said, although he did not specify which direction it might be. military analyst. who draw attention to the fact that at the very beginning of the operation to encircle kharkov with russian troops, they will need to reach the boundary of kotelna, this city is at the intersection of the poltava, sumy and kharkiv regions, then valky is the district center approximately 40 km west of kharkov, but to it will be extremely difficult for them, after all here they will have to contend with two key defense nodes, vakhtyrka and bogoduhov.

also, to carry out such... a complex operation, the russians will need to use at least 200,000 military personnel, which is at least two military armies in total. at the moment , it looks like a major offensive operation against kyiv in the summer is unlikely. first of all, due to the fact that the russians did not form the required strike formation, and also did not accumulate the required amount of weapons. currently, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, general oleksandr syrskyi on... insisted on the fact that it is not worth ignoring information about the preparation of a possible enemy offensive in kharkiv oblast. the ukrainian command, as commander-in-chief sirskyi said, is preparing an adequate response to such a possibility. if the russians go there again, kharkiv will become a fatal city for them, - warns the ukrainian head. the peculiarity of the russian offensive in 2022 was that it was intensified. the status

of rocket artillery in the first place.
