1:00 am
of the council of europe, and the fact that the speaker of the ukrainian parliament , ruslan stefanchuk, was present at the session of the parliamentary assembly today, shows that ukraine takes this initiative seriously, that is, ruslan stefanchuk spoke before the start of the debate, and of course he said that now the war has reached a critical stage, and ukraine needs europe's help more than ever before, and he asked the europeans to... make putin and russia pay for their crimes, to rebuild ukraine did not use european money, but the money of the russian federation, which is currently frozen in europe. tetyana, on april 17, the parliamentary assembly of the council of europe, on the initiative of the ukrainian delegation, plans to submit, through the legal committee, plans to submit a project to pare for consideration.
1:01 am
resolution, by which the oil refining industry of russia is defined as a legitimate target for ukraine during the war with russia, the secretary of the national security and defense council, oleksandr lytvynenko, in an interview with the economist, said that drone strikes on oil refineries in russia is a key part of the strategy to put pressure on the russian dictator putin, to quote mr. litvinenko. first, it limits his room for maneuver, and second... it helps to convince russian society and elites that continuing the war is more expensive than ending it. one strike on the airfield can damage 7, 10, 15 planes, each of them costs more than 30 million dollars. we can do an operation for less than $2 million, which is fantastic cost effectiveness. what they say in pare about what ukraine resorts to strikes on an oil refinery. industry in
1:02 am
russia's oil refineries, because ultimately the gas prices in europe depend on it, actually yes, it's very cool and it's going to be very cool news tomorrow, because actually this phrase that you quoted, that the refineries of the russian federations are legitimate targets in the war between ukraine and russia, this text, it is not even an amendment proposed by ukraine. and this is the part of the text of the resolution that will be put to the vote tomorrow, and so far there is no amendment that would propose this part to remove from the text, that is, it will most likely be voted on tomorrow, and what does this mean for ukraine, and what does the council of europe actually mean, as it were, the guardian of human rights and, in general, the guardian of the rule of law in the world, if the council of europe says, that according to international humanitarian law
1:03 am
, ukraine can legitimately attack... russian oil refineries, in fact all other states can only agree to this and it is already possible that the level of criticism from the west of these ukrainian attacks will decrease after the resolution of the council of europe and in including, by the way, in this resolution, the council of europe will call for stronger sanctions against the russian oil-producing industry, as well as against the gas industry, so that russia can produce less liquefied gas, sell it less for... and therefore, so that it has less money for the war with ukraine, i.e. tomorrow and, yes, still a very short question and i hope for a short answer, yesterday oleksiy honcharenko wrote about the fact that the legal committee is calling on the parliamentary assembly not to recognize the legitimacy of the russian leader putin, or will it be on the agenda, or not, and if so, what will result from it, a resolution or a call or a recognition. the fact
1:04 am
that putin is not the president of russia with all the consequences, that if he is not the president, then he does not have immunity, he can be arrested, well, if he flies to europe, well, in fact, the international criminal court has already issued a warrant for putin's arrest , if he flies to europe, then he must be arrested by all states, members of the council of europe, which actually recognize the jurisdiction of the international criminal court in haazi, and what will it be? this will be the same resolution in which nafta is mentioned, this resolution is actually dedicated to the condemnation of the totalitarian regime of russia and also the death of the russian opposition leader navalny, and this will be part of the resolution, indeed pariet plans to call on all states, members of the council of europe, as well as the united states and other countries of the world do not recognize putin as a legitimate president, calling him the so-called president after.
1:05 am
these so-called illegitimate elections and limit contacts with him only to humanitarian ones and also to contacts in search of peace, that is if someday ukraine decides, for example, to sit down at... some kind of transition table, but of course, a direct reaction of other states to this part of the resolution should not be expected immediately, but nevertheless, a drop, thank you tatiana , it was tetyana vysotska from strasbourg, our journalist, correspondent who works in european institutions, then we have oleksandr kovalenko, military-political observer of the information resistance group, mr. oleksandr, i congratulate you, thank you for joining our ether unfortunately, we can't hear you, maybe we have some problems with the sound, good evening, dad, good evening, now we can hear and see you well, please tell me, but zelensky says that the occupiers will try to strengthen in the spring and summer offensive, and
1:06 am
about this yesterday, president zelenskyi repeated following the results of the meeting of the supreme commander-in-chief, what he said, now we will listen and continue. our conversation two important intelligence reports of the head of the foreign intelligence service ivashchenko and the head of gur budanov regarding russian actions in the spring and in the summer, for which we must be ready in all formats of possible hostile actions. it is obvious that the craziness in the kremlin is still strong, the occupier will try to intensify the stormy actions. offensive actions, we will respond. mr. oleksandr, zelensky said that it is possible in all formats of possible hostile actions, what formats is the president talking about in this case? well, we understand that
1:07 am
the russians will advance in any case at the end of spring, beginning of summer, because now they are trying to create the conditions for this offensive, they will... use possibilities, first of all, of a breakthrough along the line of combat, which currently exists, this is mostly the biggest risk - it is the donetsk region, then it is the lymana-kupinsk region, that is, the border between luhansk region and kharkiv region, and so on. of course, we will comprehensively stop these offensive actions not only on the battlefield in the combat zone, but also. corresponding actions and on the territory of the russian federation itself. you and i have seen, for example, systemic strikes that took place at russian oil refineries. therefore, their goal is to reduce supply
1:08 am
of petroleum products to the consumer, not only civil and commercial, in russia itself, or ensuring russia's stable export and replenishment of the budget. the goal is to bring the deficit to the level of a deficit already among the russian occupation troops themselves, so that the equipment that needs a large amount of fuel and lubricants, and it would not receive them in sufficient quantities to carry out offensive actions, that is, this is one of the formats of responses that we can use it in the future to stop russian offensives. what does ukraine look like in this situation and in particular, regarding the replenishment of human resources, because the law on mobilization was passed, but mobilization did not stop, as far as the calculations, the opportunities that are available now, and they are obviously not enough, because in the law on mobilization, which was signed today by zelenskyi , there is no clause about
1:09 am
demobilization, and therefore a logical question arises, if the russians are trying to mobilize from june plus 300,000 people, will we have enough resources to close all the directions in which russia can advance? well, talk about enough resource, if we talk directly about the number, it is still a section of secret information, i don't think that, for example, even the president would talk about it, but this is precisely why the law on mobilization was adopted, we have a corresponding problem with the replenishment of human resources. resource, and here the most important thing is that this topic is very painful for russia, it immediately began to shake ukrainian society, and with another wave of informational and psychological special operations, which is aimed at popularizing evaders,
1:10 am
that is, popularizing illegal and anti-state actions on the part of citizens, that is , let's say, destabilization from within the country itself. so, for russia, this law is painful and quite, let's say, unpleasant. in turn, we must understand what russia can do within a month. mobilize and it does this up to 30,000 personnel, this is every month, after the inauguration of putin they plan to significantly accelerate and increase the number of mobilized, i.e. deploy a kind of partial mobilization 2:0 and mobilize no less than 3,000 personnel composition, in order to somehow level this potential of the human resource, which they are trying to almost spy on. in this war zone, accordingly, we must increase our
1:11 am
needs regarding mobilization, regarding the question of demobilization - this is a very difficult issue, and i would say yes, even difficult not at the legal level, but at the moral and psychological level, because it is very difficult to explain, that during a full-scale war, when there is a threat of seizing the territory of ukraine, demobilization, and it... well, to put it mildly, it is not an issue for discussion, until it ends itself war, but there are other nuances, that is, the expansion of rotational opportunities, as well as vacations for servicemen who have been on the front line for a long time, in accordance with the proportional increase of this vacation depending on how long and how long a person was on the front line, but this is already the level, as we understand, of discussions not with... outside, not within the limits of television, but precisely within the walls of the verkhovna rada. mr. oleksandr,
1:12 am
general syrskyi, commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, says that the russians they are striving for may 7th, precisely may 7th, because on may 7th the next ascension to the throne of putin, who is called the president of russia, who supposedly won the presidential election, should take place. so, the russians are planning to take their time by this date. now they are leading an offensive in the direction of the city, how does the situation on the eastern front look now, and do the russians have enough resources now to take yar by may 7, or are these another statement that will be repeated in the same way as they once took bakhmut, it seems they took a year and a half bahmud constantly, constantly talked about ... here, here we will take this city, in principle, the russians have this, they have an attachment to
1:13 am
fetishes, and therefore not only the inauguration of the so-called russian president putin, but also that , that it will take place on the eve of yet another fetish date of may 9, all this indicates that their russian command really sets such tasks before the units that are involved. in the offensive at the time of iv, but the resource is really enough in order to capture such a powerful and powerful ukraproion in them no, apart from everything else, they haven't even created sufficient conditions to implement it yet, by conditions i mean the capture of the villages that are located to the east of the temporary ravine, i.e. bohdanivka, ivanivske, kleschiivka and andrivka, without the capture of these villages conduct an offensive operation in the city itself, city battles and so on. well, let's put it this way, it is extremely risky, because, for example, the same klishchiivka and andriivka
1:14 am
are the southern flank along the routes 0.506 0504, that is, if the russians start advancing, they this flank will be problematic, and there is a risk of being cut off, they are unlikely to take such risks, although, again, powerful offensive actions are possible. unfold right after the inauguration, and most likely it will be exactly june 2024, that is, the second half of the 24th year can catalyze the process of offensive actions at times, at the same time, we see over the last two months how the russians have intensified in the direction of sumy, well, such there is no direction, but they are active enough... sumy region is simply being destroyed villages that are located in a five-kilometer
1:15 am
zone between the russian border and deep into ukrainian territory, there are practically empty villages and villagers are evacuating neighboring villages and villages, what is the activation of the russians in sumy region connected with, they still want to create a so-called gray area which putin once talked about and said that we will do everything so that there is a gray zone, although the gray zone will not ultimately save russia from long-range missiles taurus and others. resources and components of the current war in the ukrainian army, including drones, which fly for 1000 km, that is, in your opinion, the russians are really thinking of creating this big gray zone along the border with ukraine, turning villages and cities into ashes? and
1:16 am
in principle, what is the gray zone? a gray zone is a territory that is not controlled by any of... this is the meaning of a gray zone, even a sanitary zone, this is, as putin said, this is an analogue of a gray zone, but if we are talking about the border strip on the same sumy oblast itself, yes, they really hit villages and settlements, they force the local population not to flee, that is, they increase the number of refugees, but at the same time, in this zone , the defense forces of ukraine remain, which hold these territories, that is, it is de facto no longer a gray zone, because it is controlled by the security forces and units of the defense forces of ukraine, respectively. therefore, all the actions of the russian federation are considered exclusively as a war crime, terror against the civilian population, and with this terror against the civilian population, it is the russian side
1:17 am
that seeks to influence the internal. events in ukraine itself, i will remind you that, for example, when there were strikes on kharkiv oblast and kharkiv, and although they are applied regularly, the russians tried to spread as much information as possible about the fact that an attack on kharkiv is being prepared, that is, in this way they are further destabilizing the internal situation in the country, trying to integrate their informational and psychological special operations, and let's not forget that in addition to terror and ... the hottest war in the combat zone, there is also an information war, and they always combine terror with information attacks, information waves. another front, or the front line, which we have passes in the north, the border with belarus is more than a thousand kilometers long, lukashenko said a few days ago that
1:18 am
the ukrainians mined and concreted everything there, is there still any possibility that... russians, or some parts of belarus, small, few, can create certain problems for ukrainians from the north? as of today, with the number that is present on the territory of belarus, the only threat that can be is subversive-terrorist activity, specifically in the form of drgs, small groups, subversive-terrorist activity at the border strip, and nothing more, that is... but a shock group, a shock fist to carry out some threatening invasions, well, for example , to launch a campaign on kyiv 2.0, let's say so, or there are threats to chernihiv and so on, there are no threats on the territory of belarus, the forces and means that are concentrated there
1:19 am
are not enough to implement any of these invasion scenarios, if... in principle, this number will increase and new units will enter belarus from russia, well, this will be recorded, and that is enough a long-term process to create such a strike group is not a matter of a week or even a month, it is a rather long-lasting process, and therefore, as of today, the threat is only at the level of the drg, although it should be generally understood that until the war ends, and also until so the so-called president of belarus remains lukashenko, the threat in one way or another... in one or another percentage will always exist. thank you, mr. oleksandr, for the conversation, it was oleksandr kovalenko, a military-political analyst of the information group. friends, we work in live on the espresso tv channel, and we conduct polls both on youtube and on the espresso tv channel. and we ask you this: do you hope that with the help of

1:25 am
studio, they are people's deputies of ukraine, mykyta poturaev, chairman of the verkhovna rada committee on humanitarian and information policy, vice-president of the osce parliamentary assembly. mr. nikita, i congratulate you. thank you for being with us today? good evening. rostyslav pavlenko, people's deputy of ukraine, member of the committee. councils on education, science and innovation. mr. rostyslav, i congratulate you and thank you for joining the broadcast. thank you, good evening. andriy osotchuk, people's deputy of ukraine, first deputy chairman of the committee of the verkhovna rada on law enforcement activities. mr. andrii, i congratulate you, thank you for being with us today. good evening, thank you for the invitation. so, gentlemen, as we ask our viewers whether ukraine will be able to stop the russian offensive with the help of the united states of america. let's do a survey in the format of a bliz, i will also ask you, you will be short and concise, i hope, mr. nikita, it depends on what kind of
1:26 am
war it will be. technical assistance, it is completely clear that they are talking about it out loud, unfortunately, already retired american military, today a fresh column by general ben hodgers was published in the ukrainian media, and it is absolutely clearly described what weapons ukraine needs to stop, and then inflict painful defeats on the russian army, to the point that it itself began to leave ukraine, but if it will be, you know, the kind of assistance that is only for... as they say, well, it is , then the concept in the united states, unfortunately, in my opinion, is wrong, escalation management, yes if it is again aid that will be for escalation management, in the sense that in order for us not to lose and not to win, it is clear that we will continue to remain in a difficult, difficult, difficult situation. thank you, mr. nikita, mr. rostislav, i believe that the aid from the united states is of course critical, it is obvious
1:27 am
that the arrival of aid is essential to... maybe in stopping the enemy, but really it depends on the quality of the aid, well, here we need will work both with european partners and independently to improve drone technologies and electronic warfare technologies and the production of ammunition on our own, and then help is absolutely necessary, will be added to what we can do ourselves. thank you, mr. andrii, maybe you will be surprised, but i will quote... president zelensky, who said in an interview the other day that without american help, we will not be able to win this war, and although i prefer to say, we will not be able to finish this war on ukrainian conditions, so of course there is a huge pile of details, but it is clear that europe in the state it is in now, technologically, militarily, it is not able to compensate for what we can get from of the united states of america, and obviously we will not be able to win this war if we do not
1:28 am
create... new approaches to mobilization, to the recruitment of ukrainians to the armed forces of ukraine, and today president zelensky signed the law on mobilization, which was voted on by the verkhovna rada on april 11. there were a lot of discussions, however, all the amendments, 4,000 amendments, were not supported by the session hall, to put it mildly, but to put it simply, the servants of the people simply did not vote, mr. nikita, can you explain why it was so... the concept of the monomajority, that all the amendments that were introduced by the people's deputies and they worked on these amendments for so long that they were simply voted non-stop in the mode of such er, how to say, correctly, in the mode of the printer, not non-acceptance, that the other people's deputies did not understand, but what, why did this actually happen, well, it must be understood
1:29 am
that... what we voted on is a so-called post-article vote, it concerned the editorial board, that is, the article committee, and in these editorial boards there are actually many proposals was taken into account, but it is clear that such a law, you know, belongs to those where there are no decisions that are pleasant for someone, but there are difficult and there are completely difficult, and it is clear that the committee was guided by state interests, the committee was guided by interests. first of all, the front and the army, and my colleagues from the committee did not have any other criteria in the committee, by the way, i believe that absolutely all representatives of the faction of the groups present there, or almost all of them, did a good job there, and therefore wasting time to once again discuss the 400 amendments, i personally like just like most of my colleagues did not think absolutely, well, we did not
1:30 am
see any sense in this. because we clearly knew that the committee produced a text that was the only one, the only one that could be supported, that's really it, in the text that the committee produced, a lot of suggestions were taken into account, but to sit and mock, well, you know, all going through 400 amendments, and such a criminal amount of time was spent on those 400, among them there were good amendments, and they were included in the text of the law, but there were some that... well, i don't know how to describe submission of such amendments, absolutely populist in wartime, and here you are talking about the fact that the time was criminally used, and will not the time be criminally used, if, starting from december 26, 23, to april 11, 24, this the law could be, well, if, if it was voted like this and if these amendments were adopted or not adopted, it could be speeded up, especially the war in...
