reacted that they do not rule out such a development of events and - such assistance, this kind of assistance for ukraine. but again , let's not be deceived, there will be no french soldiers in ukraine tomorrow. well , let's assume, let's simulate, that macron does send his troops to ukraine. let's say there to odessa, or to the west of our country, or to the northern border of our country. now, if we are talking about this, will nato's permission be needed to deploy french troops on the territory of ukraine. this is very important, because in this case it can be here a certain collision, relatively speaking, of the national legislation of france, and international law, relatively speaking, because france is a member of the north atlantic alliance. so that there can be a conflict between international

law, french law, and ukrainian law, which in principle today does not allow the placement of bases on the territory of foreign countries on the territory of ukraine, every time when we conducted training, we adopted a separate bill on joint training to allow nato ships, for example, to enter the port of odessa, and about nato, i have almost the same question. gave to admiral bauer, who is the chairman of the nato military committee, and what is the chairman of the nato military committee, he is the second person after sto, not even the second person, it is parallel. stoltenberg is a political leader, and baur is a military army leader who, in the event of hostilities, is responsible for all nato forces, ah, for the military component of nato forces. uh at the meeting when he was coming to

kyiv, i asked him what nato would do if france sent troops, decides to send troops to ukraine, will it block, will it help, will it do it, that is, nato will do it together with france and under the umbrella of nato, relatively speaking, well... positions like bauer's, they are not exclusively military, but military-political, he politically evaded the answer, but it is also telling, because he did not say no, he did not say that it is impossible, and we will not allow it, and and and and and it will never be, and first of all, i think that with two reasons, still the national army, and er... obeys the national decision first

and foremost, that is, it is not the decision of the alliance, they cannot stop france from making decisions about the use of the army, but again, the lack of a direct answer no, also says that such options are being considered either under the nato umbrella or without the nato umbrella, but again it is possible that national countries are national... governments will be able to make such a decision independently. another long-suffering question is taurus missiles, right? we will say for months we have been waiting for a solution to this problem, unfortunately it is not solved, we ukrainians , relatively speaking, need these missiles, we need them, our defenders need them all the more. in this case, in your opinion, should we expect it or not? is the position

of olaf scholz today, it is so principled that conditionally, until the end of his term, we should forget about the taurus missiles and not even mention it, but concentrate on something else. will this compromise be found, will ukraine and the leaders of other states convince scholz himself and his coalition, in the fact that, after all, these missiles are needed... for ukraine to move forward and ultimately to move towards ukrainian victory. ah, good question, it's almost been a year since we first talked about taurus, i remember absolutely clearly that day when we had a meeting with the german delegation from the bundestag in luxembourg, and by that time we had already received leopards and ... we spoke with my colleague on

the defense committee, markus faver, about what else germany can do to help? and actually then he said that they still have taurus, these very long-range missiles, we... took it away in the public space for the first time, then the ministry of defense officially made a request for these missiles, but relied on scholz's position to somehow correct this position or push him to make this decision, a lot of different actions were taken at different levels, at the level of the president, of course, and at the level of the government, our parliamentary one. equally, we worked with all factions of the coalition, still they voted one way or another and gave the cabinet missiles to provide them to ukraine, and even scholz's faction in the parliament voted, so they called the word taurus, but they described in this way that there could be no other option

in the resolution they adopted, with an appeal to scholz himself. we have worked a lot with the ministry of defense, and behind the scenes they are talking to us. the decision still remains with scholz, and it seems that the only person in the country in germany who is against this attitude, these supplies, is precisely scholz. scholz is afraid whether it is him or it does he have any personal position, or does he really have substantiated facts, why missiles cannot be supplied to ukraine? the arguments he gives, frankly, do not stand up to any criticism. every time he came up with something new, we broke down those arguments. very simply, at first the story was that these are too long-range missiles, because even the manufacturers do not talk about the final range where they can reach, they say that

500 km is guaranteed, then it is closed information, and we and what is it these rockets have be limited in rebuke. the latter is meant in the radius of use, which does not withstand any criticism, because these are not ballistic missiles that fly in a curve, they are maneuvering cruise missiles that can make maneuvers there 500 km that will bypass and should bypass the enemy's air defense systems , and terrain reliefs and so on, so in a straight line it can be 300 km, and with all these maneuvers, it can be 400, 500 or more. secondly, to blame us or, you know, not even to blame, to suspect us of because we can hit the territory of the russian federation with these missiles, well, this is absolute nonsense, because we have already proven in two years that we use all western weapons exclusively on the territory of ukraine, and the third

argument was, we also refuted this, the third argument was that it is impossible to quickly replenish the stocks of these missiles. and if they will be transferred to ukraine in any significant quantity, i was at the production of taurus missiles at the mbda company, and i spoke with the managers of this company, they say that tomorrow, if an order is placed for these missiles, we launch tomorrow, and within a few months we can put them, well , maybe something last from what i remember the argument that they ... scholz's office or scholz himself said that in order to operate these missiles need the german military here on the territory of ukraine, and this can lead to an escalation there and a direct confrontation with the russian federation, this is also nonsense, it is not a battleship, because the same

managers of the mbdi manufacturer, they say, we do not need to send our military or specialists to ukraine, yours the military comes, we train them, and they go on their own. do whatever is necessary, so all those arguments given, they don't stand up to any criticism, the real real reason, i think he really, as a person who grew up in such a pacifist paradigm, even if there will be 1%, maybe less one percent of the problem of escalation due to the transfer of such missiles to ukraine between russia. and germany, he would rather refuse such a transfer than take any risk of escalation with germany and russia. well, the last question, actually bloc of the international, it concerns nato, nato, in fact, we will have such

a big, relatively speaking, jubilee summit in the summer, yes, at which certain decisions can be made, but, if you look at what... today the american press writes , then, unfortunately, as far as i understand, we will join nato, we cannot expect an invitation to nato. what is ukraine anyway? if the maximum can be achieved, what profit can be obtained from this summit as much as possible, what is the goal we set for ourselves, in the end, is it still membership in nato with a requirement regarding this summit, is it possible some other guarantees that we will need, at least in the near future, we do not replace membership with guarantees, this is a parallel process. and we are talking about the fact that we need guarantees for the time that we go to nato. as for the summit in

washington, it is still too early to say what we get, what we don't get, it is a constant process in which positions change, and i will tell you that in the last six months, maybe eight months, i have heard however, it will definitely not be political invitation, then we are looking for a formula, how is it right. paraphrase, and we are doing our best to convince our partners and key partners in the united states and in germany and other partners to push these two countries, ah, we we will not stop, we have such an advocacy tour planned for these countries, and we will continue to convince all the same that we need a political invitation that does not start the process. ratification in national parliaments, ie does not start the actual process of the entire

accession, we understand that we will be able to become nato members after the end of this war, but to reserve this 33rd chair for us, in principle, our partners could, moreover, and this would send a signal to the kremlin , that it does not affect events and decisions within the alliance, because if the following is not done. a step after the vilnius summit, after those decisions that would bring us closer to nato, this will mean that the alliance is really weak, it really pays attention to the kremlin's position and putin's position, and i also say this to our partners, that it will not be a step forward, it will mean that it is a step back. well, well, there is another block of issues that is very important, which concerns the actual internal policy of our state,

the internal situation in our state, and probably no less resonating the bill itself, this is the bill on mobilization, what we are already talking about, discussing, probably at least a few months, and in principle it has already been almost a year, the bill on mobilization, as far as i understand, as of today it is already... almost ready, or 100% ready, and according to the speaker of the parliament, mr. stefanchuk, sometime in the near future, maybe next week, maybe another week, it should be brought to the meeting hall of the verkhovna rada of ukraine, or is it , is it 100% ready, are there any other changes possible, and most importantly, are people's deputies ready to vote for this draft law? there will be 226 votes, yes, but still, conditionally speaking, we will have

to postpone this issue again, which is no less important for our country than allocation of funds than the help of our international partners, and it is too early to talk about 100%, 100%, i think, will be after the signature of the president under this law, this will already be one hundred percent the law that has entered into... the driver, now we have already passed 4269 licenses , which have been submitted by our colleagues, and we are working, and tomorrow we will work on committee amendments, they will not be like that, not so many, but they will be basic, essential what changes there to balance this bill, after that, i think it will take us a day, two at the most, after the final table is already being prepared, after that it is voted on in the committee,

the committee's conclusion is made and it is already sent to the conciliation council, and the conciliation council puts it on the agenda in the hall of the parliament, i think that in principle we are, we are going at such a pace, that can be brought to the next meeting. not this bill, if something force majeure does not happen, but when it will be voted on in the hall, it is impossible, it is impossible to say here, because 4200 have the right, each of the deputies... has the right to put his an amendment for confirmation or for a vote or just to speak, and it may take time, i hope that our colleagues, i am asking them very much and we are negotiating with them now, that we do not delay this bill that our country needs, which was

developed by the ministry of defense at the request of the general staff, we tried it. it is normal to balance it so that it is, on the one hand, responsive to the requests of the army, on the other hand, still understanding the needs and problems of society and some inflections that were in the first version, but for i hope that our colleagues will vote on this version, that is, relatively speaking somewhere, if everything goes well, it should come into force on june 1, well, if everything goes well, i will. i hope that even earlier, i don't know how long it will take, again, 400 amendments, i really hope that not every deputy will speak on every amendment, that's a minute for a speech, plus a minute for voting, here and there plus an announcement speaker, that is, relatively speaking, three minutes for each amendment, so we will sit for a very long time, and i and we have such,

unfortunately, there were examples when we voted for some draft laws in which there were amendments and each amendment was passed in this way, now i do not see such a need and such readiness, let's say, our colleagues, yes, someone from they will partially raise and discuss their amendments there, but i hope that we will manage in weeks, in days, but not in weeks, that is, about 400 amendments, if we start considering them there next week or a week later, then somewhere in two weeks , maybe we will pass this bill. and the last block that we should talk about today is the work of the parliament in general, many experts, journalists, politicians talk about the fact that we have a parliamentary crisis today, that is, there are not enough votes, the relevant bills are not being passed, as an example during march

, the verkhovna rada of ukraine submitted the minimum number of draft laws and the minimum amount of work in general. mr. yehor, is it really? but now there is such a crisis of parliamentarism, why very often we see an empty hall, why very often not there are enough votes, it is necessary, relatively speaking, to look for these votes in order to vote for important bills, how does the parliament work today in this case, is it really a parliamentary crisis, or is it really such a problem that currently exists in the verkhovna rada of ukraine, which affects essentially on the vital activities of the country. it is difficult for me to speak on behalf of all my colleagues, to be honest, we in the defense committee work every day in considering these 400 amendments for several thousand weeks, if not months, and we are meeting, and in we have a quorum, and there are enough people, and we are voting, but as for the empty halls in the session hall

of the parliament, here the question is... what is being considered, it really does happen sometimes, and the last time i was also in the session hall when there were no votes , but there were no votes due to the fact that the resolutions blocking previously voted draft laws were being considered, and in principle, they do not require votes for them, let's say, because they are blocking resolutions, and we are absolutely clear. we don't vote for such resolutions, i speak from the servant of the people, that's why it wasn't actually there people, and maybe the picture looked like this , that this is the way that the parliament does not work, but i will explain with a specific example that there was no need, this was our position, because, for example, draft law 10313 was blocked, which allowed combine

databases, well, different databases in order to simplify work. our army and to understand in general how many people we have, how much mobilization mobilization reserve we have, but for some reason some opposition parties decided that this bill is not the one that is needed, and the resolution is blocked, this is their right, this is democracy, but it is our right not to vote for such a resolution and actually not to be in the hall because of such resolutions, which in principle only take up time and... block this one again a bill that could already work, i think that's it, unfortunately we have a certain time limit, i thank you very much for... welcome to our studio for the fact that we extremely important things were discussed with you, including international politics, the law on mobilization, and principles, parliamentary activity in our

country, this is something that worries our citizens extremely much, and well, then we will see you next time with new guests, with new topics, and we hope that the issues that were today, those urgent needs , which are in our country, that they will be resolved, and we with... we will still continue to move towards the ukrainian victory, thank you, you damned stairs, my legs can't walk anymore, wait, i'm suffocating, what health no, but what kind of health is there in the sixth decade, and i thought so until i tried gerovital, gerovital plus phytovitamin complex. which takes care of the heart and strengthens the body. gerovitalal+ - good health, active life. gerovital energy novelty. even more iron for good deeds. herovital energy - reception once a day. what

fells, the absence of a stamped cut. and scattered sawdust indicate illegal felling. this is what an illegally cut fresh tree looks like, you see, here neither the law enforcement officers nor the foresters have had time to put any brand, so now what we are doing is fixing the diameter in in two directions in order to calculate the average diameter of this cut, and based on this diameter the damages will be calculated, the violators carry the cut trees on sawmills, he explains. activist volodymyr yarotskyi, there they are sawed into boards and beams, so the plots are enriched by the theft of natural resources, and the forests become bald in front of our eyes, during such illegal actions, illegal felling , the above-ground cover is also destroyed, the soil is destroyed, the ground is destroyed, the plants that break are destroyed, the undergrowth is being destroyed, and of course the forest... the forest is changing very much

environment. a subsidiary company, galsil forest of staro sambir, is responsible for most of this forest. activists have been documenting illegal logging here for six years. the area of ​​20 hectares is overseen by foresters. they mark arbitrarily destroyed trees with a special brand. our forests are turning into sawdust, which does not enter either the state budget of ukraine or the local budget. local employees of the state environmental inspection went to the starosambir forestry and recorded illegal fellings. specialists for 2023 state losses in this area were estimated at 17 million hryvnias. our materials are sent to the police authorities, the prosecutor's office is informed, which supports these materials, and further actions take place within the framework of criminal proceedings, and accordingly i repeat that our

specialists. it is also involved in the framework of criminal proceedings already for departure together with the investigative task force. 70% of arbitrary fellings are recorded in the starosambir district, 30% are accounted for by other enterprises of the hausil forest. such statistics are provided by the acting manager ceo ivan pidhoretskyi, according to him, illegal logging is due to the fact that the area is not gasified and residents heat their homes with firewood. but there are still about a hundred carpenters working in this area, that is, there is a great demand for wood. already since the 24th year , 16 cases of arbitrary felling have been detected, for a cubic mass of 89 m3, er, this is damage caused to our company and the state for about half a million hryvnias, this is literally in two months, some, some of these cases have been

detected a trespasser who... to draw to responsibility, who should pay the damages, some of them are not detected, because we detect them, we officially submit these documents to the police, the police conduct an investigation, and look for the people who caused these damages in order to solve the problem, the acting director the company plans to install night camera traps on the territory of the staro sambir galsi forest, information about criminals will be passed on to the police, expensive cameras are promised to be purchased... with grant funds. kateryna oliynyk, nazar melnyk, oleg palyamar, espresso tv channel.
