start our conversation with the great saturday that was in the congress of the united states of america, there is a lot of talk about aid, or rather, about the bill on allocating aid to ukraine in the amount of 61 billion dollars, let's talk about it, but first of all i would like to start with the bill about the confiscation of russian assets for ukraine, because. it is about the freezing of those russian assets, the transfer to ukraine in the amount of approximately 8 billion dollars, can this decision become a precedent in the world, and other countries will do the same, referring to the fact that the united states of america has already done it, well, sir sergey, come on, let's be frank, when they say that in the usa they say only 5 dollars, which russian oligarchs hid there, then this is a very

big, i would say so, delicate disinformation, what the russian oligarchs stole in russia, and what they listed and invested in america's economy, it's not 5 billion, and not even 50 billion, and not even 500 billion, it's trillions. american dollars, they know that everything is great, but, well, when it comes to such obvious scandals, when they see that... there are russian oligarchs who are already very clearly supporting putin, who are already very clearly siding with the aggressor , then these are the ones that are chosen, that's why 5 billion is an extremely small drop in the ocean for the american economy, and i think that

no one will ever talk about these huge sums that are really hidden there will be, because they work for the american economy and no one will take them away, of course. it will never happen, but you are right, mr. sergey, if we are talking about a precedent of confiscation, then there may even be a topic of 100 million, not necessarily even 5 billion, the main thing is that there should be a precedent that it can be done, and then the world the financial system will start to think, well, how should we react to this, and is it right, i think that if... our western, mainly here european politicians came to a simple conclusion that we need to change approaches to relations with russia in principle and not to be afraid that it may file lawsuits in the courts, simply because it wants to use democracy in the fight against democracy, then

the situation would be different, i lead to the fact that it is necessary to adopt non-legal, and... political and legal decisions, that is, to recognize that any attempts by russia to challenge these decisions in european courts should not be accepted by these european courts as such, because russia itself has violated all possible international and domestic laws of these countries, therefore it has no right to sue, sometimes they say that, you know, it will create... a bad precedent and some countries, let's say china, the countries of the middle east, will be able to think about withdrawing their funds from europe, well, the logic is absolutely not clear here , if the europeans declare that no country that has not

committed any international crimes, aggression can feel free and calm, but if you... violated these rules, well then what, then you will have to pay for it, and thus no normal an unwilling country to have problems with international law and sanctions, he will never do such things in his life and will calmly keep his funds in the same european depository, in a word, there is work to be done, but here again the political will of these western politicians is needed, which unfortunately is not enough. meanwhile, russia is already being quacked about these asset sanctions and they are saying that there will be mirror sanctions, well, in a word, they are very worried about this, and this cannot help but be happy, as well as angry that the congress of the united states of america on april 20, he voted for the decision to

allocate aid to ukraine, how it all happened, we will remind our tv viewers. the atmosphere that prevailed in the hall of congress of the united states of america. during this vote, 311 for, 112 against, one abstention. this means that the bill has been adopted. i call for order in the hall. i call for order in the hall. the chairman would like to remind that, unfortunately, our regulations do not allow the use of flags of different countries at meetings in the hall. i call for order in the hall. these were ukrainian, that's why

the chairman tried to bring everyone to their senses. but we have a long way to go, sir. another vote on april 23 is already in the senate, and senate majority leader chuck schumer announced that american senators will come out of recess specifically to vote for aid to ukraine, given the fact that, apparently , the democrats have a majority there and there should be no problems there , whether there may be any other problems, or after all, this is historicity. this decision was made already on april 20, and just on the 23rd there will be confirmation of this historicity, well you see, mr. serhiy, what the senate will actually vote on, well, exactly... it is that it has already voted only under a slightly different sign, which does not change the essence of the issue, so

it is certain that several proposals for amendments will be made, they will considered, it is written that it will last as long as 10 minutes, that is, these are purely formal things, and i think that the draft law will be supported again by the senate, and then... immediately signed by the president, and this will mean that by the end of the week , the ukrainian forces are extremely necessary defense weapons will finally fall into the hands of our heroes, and this will give an opportunity to stop a very difficult, if not to say, critical situation, which is developing today in some areas of the ukrainian-russian front. in an interview with nbc news, president zelensky thanked everyone. who supported the aid package of the united states of america in ukraine, which will give our country a chance to win the war. let's listen to what zelensky said. this support will really

strengthen ukraine and the armed forces. and we will have a chance to win, but under the conditions that for this money ukraine is getting a sufficient number of weapons, which are so necessary to repulse the enemy. this and... leleria, this is a long-range strategic weapon, this is what was in the law, thanks to the speaker, what is written there, these are attack weapons, that is, long-range combat weapons, which are so important in order not to lose people at the front. mr. volodymyr, the fact that this draft law now states separately that there will be atakams missiles - this is a signal to putin, as far as i understand it, correct, it is correct, although it is a late signal, but finally , as they say, it happened , and this is finally, to me seems to indicate that the white house

has won the line that this half-empire must be ended after all, because these attacks will definitely, and primarily, i think, be used to ... targets in the temporarily occupied territory of ukraine and outside this occupied territory, in order to make it impossible for russia to continue this terrible war of aggression. therefore, if there are enough of these attacks, and here again we are not talking about units, but about hundreds, then we can hope that the hack will still happen. add to this the fact that in a couple of months the relevant forces are expected

to help close the ukrainian sky and prevent it from being attacked as it is happening today, then this will really create very serious positive prerequisites for this hack to take place as quickly as possible , but when, mr. serhiu. we are talking about this stage, this stage of aid from the united states of america, i think i spoke about it today with several of your colleagues, i think we should not be complacent here, because in fact we have to ensure to ensure that we don't have any more half-year breaks like this, and for that i think we need to do two things, the first is to ensure that in our bilateral agreement with the united states, which is called security, the truth, which i call security in the field of aid to ukraine in defense,

to write clear, specific, very clear commitments from the united states of america to provide ukraine with the weapons we need for the next 10 years, these... agreements, they are really designed for 10 years, they have already been signed with several countries, members nato, in europe, they provide such a very clear framework that can be taken as a basis for planning certain actions. this gives partners the opportunity to prepare so that it doesn't happen all of a sudden, like now . it is necessary to collect shells all over the world, and that this should be a clear, planned work, calculated for the moment until we become a full member of the alliance. when

it happens, all these things will definitely be adjusted, er, it will be a completely different story, this is the first moment, the second moment, in spite of this, it is necessary, in my opinion, to continue the line on the restoration of such a theme as, now there cannot be enough weapons, they must be taken from all possible sources and from all possible points, so to speak, so although i imagine that ... it will not be received, at least at first positively , but one way or another, this topic must be forced and lobbied for. and let's not forget that there are a lot of european partners, a huge thank you to them for what they're doing, and here, i think, uh, despite some of the problems that germany has had with these long-range weapons, we have to thank them for that it is really powerful.

an ally that adds everything we need, and for some reason it seems to me that after the decision on the attacks, the same will happen with the taurus missiles, well, this is my assumption, then i think that if these efforts, both american and european , are combined, and more than that, and our defense industry will start giving up. times more than the products needed by our armed forces, then such a hack will definitely happen, will be objectively real, and let's help everyone in their place, everyone as best as they can, so that this scenario actually happened. mr. volodymyr, the chairman of the european committee in the bundestag, anton hofreiter, does not rule out that, approved

by the house of representatives... of the united states, aid to ukraine may be the last, well, for some reason he thinks so. you mentioned this ten-year program of our cooperation with the united states of america, and not only with the united states of america. after iran attacked israel on the night of april 13-14, there was a lot of talk about why our western partners do not protect us, such as the state of israel, why, why... actually do not intervene in this war on the side of ukraine, as far as it is probable that before ukraine joins nato, we can get this status of the main ally outside nato, outside the alliance, with the united states of america, with great britain, with germany. well, er, i, mr. sergiu, have already expressed myself

about this status more than once. i am not an ardent supporter of this status, because in my opinion it can only detract from the main goal, which is to join the alliance, what will be spelled out in these bilateral agreements with many european countries with the united states, in the field of defense, i think they will have... essentially what is written in such agreements about this status that you just mentioned, but this, in my opinion, can have a negative political aspect, because there will be obligations there will definitely be political forces in some countries that will say that this is enough in ukraine at this stage, and there about nato, let's not talk about it for now,

in fact, it will to some extent divert attention from this key security issue for us to the side what we need, we will to receive on a bilateral basis, and the goal of blurring the goal of joining nato, it seems to me that there is no sense in this case. after the congress of the united states of america voted to allocate aid to ukraine, polish president andrzej duda confirmed that ... he spoke several times with representatives of the united states of america about the possibility of placing nuclear weapons on polish territory, a response to the redeployment of russian nuclear weapons to belarus, i will quote mr. duda. if there is such a decision of our allies regarding the placement of nuclear weapons within the framework of nuclear exchange, including on our territory with the aim of strengthening the security of the eastern flank of nato, we are ready for this, we are an ally of the north atlantic.
