what russia has done in the last year in terms of the production of ammunition, missiles, tanks and armored vehicles, you will see that it is producing them faster than at any time in modern history, including during the cold war, when the soviet union existed. how does she manage to do this? because it receives significant volumes of machine tools, microelectronics, optics, mainly from china. 70% of machine tools and 90% of microelectronics come from china. roman, the arms race in the soviet union, which was trying to catch up with the united states of america, ended with the collapse of the soviet union. current the arms race in russia, how can it end? you see, it seems to me that in the modern world the most important thing is a person, but in the literal sense of the word, a soldier, i don’t know, there the military says, manpower, modern technologies, there is robotics there and so on and so forth, well probably it allows. to increase

labor productivity, the only thing that arises here is the moment, here is this consta pistorios blinkin, very cool officials, high officials, people who have earned a career, so for me, to be honest, this statement is not enough, that's what i want to ask and, apparently, something should be done then, some other decisions should be made, perhaps. it is necessary to send a knocking back telegram secretly to kyiv, something like, well, maybe it is not necessary, but there is no need to hit there, there is no need to hit there, as it was before the consideration in the congress according to help, i don’t know, i think they need to watch more russian television in our presentation, because they, russians, set a problem in direct text, articulate it orally and with their voices. on the destruction

of states, on striking the united states to the states, they say that you cannot drive the rat, that is, putin into a corner, because he will use nuclear weapons, that is, once again, we are in a situation where these are statements, tears, this is not enough, well, it seems, after all, antony blinken, he didn’t go to china just like that, and certain changes, well, at least that’s how the russians themselves began to say that there was something there... the chinese began to send them a little less, they don’t accept payments, that is, it’s all regulated and it works out if the western world plays along in full force, and we have to play with the russians in full force, then the situation changes, do you remember when the terrorist girkin was still at large and delighted us with his forecasts, he very often repeated the following formulation: we must fight earnestly. why exactly this

advice, no wonder, it is for our western partners, it is very, very useful, here it is not possible, here, here we help ukraine, here we somehow balance, russia, china, geopolitics there, well all these, so that nuclear weapons do not spread around the world and so on and so on, so the time has come when it is necessary to take all measures from... well, it seems that the western world still has them, well, i am an optimist here, because adolf, i'm sorry, vladimir, vladimir, yes, he will still convince everyone of his terrible intentions, that you can't do anything else with them. in your opinion, what should the event now demonstrate, what could it do, that is, announce. about the demilitarization

of putin's russia, about the denuclearization of russia, about the de-racialization of russia, that is, what should the west say in the current situation, well, our western partners in the current situation, because when valdemar threatens the whole world, so he should receive some signal that what will happen to him, if suddenly something or. why, why, why isn't there? well, that means denuclearization may come one day, but at the moment no one is even talking about it, the topic of de-rasification, here again, these and these definitions, they are not permanent and, as it were, unappealable in the west, and as for me, in today's situation, well, since it is already taking such a turn, it must be said... the next thing that

we declare an unmanned zone on the territory of ukraine, within its internationally recognized borders, is there is such a possibility without if... the use of nuclear weapons is there, and this could change the situation, but with us, you see how it is with these planes, it’s all for as long as they are at once, but we have all hopes for the f16, how they will show themselves in the war with the russians, that is also a question, the planes are old, and they have new ones, and we are analyzing the russian iskanders, which are sometimes in our city. and scattered nearby, there are a lot of western components and so on and so on, that is, i don’t know, it seems to me that these are general territorialized things, they are interesting, and some political scientists and journalists live on this, but i am

still a supporter of such a practical approach, ah, there must be a military-technical answer. actually, everything, the rest is all simple, well , today’s conversations, they are not just like that, there in moscow, the battered equipment of the nato countries was dragged into the exhibition, and there are queues, russian pacifists, these are exactly the ones yulia navalnaya is talking about told that there is someone there who is against the war, in this way they demonstrate to the russian population that... he right, so you see, we attacked ukraine, and nato is already there, well, since nato is already there, well, then take the appropriate steps, well, in fact, everything is moving in this direction, it's just time, in fact, and money, including , including western taxpayers, because

these deliveries would have been made a year ago, the decisions on planes and so on and so on were praised, immediately, well at least immediately after... the invasion, well, look, the situation was different, so what they brought us cool leopard tanks, they were shot down from the air, along with ours military personnel very often, well, it's kind of strange, simply, well, what do you think can accelerate the collapse of russia, putin's, yes, it's such, you know, an eternal question, yes, it's like a plane crash. stanza has a lot in common , it seems to me, well, for starters, ukrainian victories in the theater of military operations with the help of high-tech weapons, there we have many

retired american and not only american generals, they like to think about how cool it was, because here we are it should have been presented like this, when i was there, general khodzhits served, here we are there were 300... planes, we would take off now, we would fly, everyone there was bombed, they all died, so the question is, it's not pensioners talking about it, but 300 planes, as it was, and remained, in short, still only a weapon. thank you roman for the conversation, it was roman tsymbalyuk, my colleague, journalist and vlogger who has a fairly large youtube channel, subscribe to his youtube channel. trimmers are so heavy, loud and inconvenient, and you want to have a beautiful, well-groomed area. there is a solution. garden trimmer cors from unpack tv. hurry up to order at a special price. only from uah 999. corce dreamers are compact, light and very powerful. mow the lawn in the most difficult

friends, this is the second part of the verdict program, we are working live on the tv channel, my name is serhiy rudenko, today in the program. the five-year term of zelenskyi's government, the peculiarities of ukrainian democracy in the conditions of war and the absence of elections, is the threat real. authoritarianism in ukraine. restriction of rights and freedoms against the background of mobilization. the announcement of the withdrawal from the convention on human rights caused a public outcry. is there betrayal in actions authorities? diplomacy with artificial intelligence. a virtual spokeswoman will now comment on consular issues on behalf of the ministry of foreign affairs. will a digital official be trusted? we will talk about all this for... 45 minutes with our guests, however, before introducing them, i will remind you that we work

not only live on the tv channel, but also on our youtube and facebook platforms, for those who are now watching us live there. please subscribe to our pages and take part in our survey. we are asking you about this today, do you see it? threat to democracy in ukraine. yes, no, everything is quite simple on youtube if you sit in front of the tv and watch us telecast. pick up your smartphone or phone and vote yes 0800 211 381 no 0800 211 382 all calls to these numbers are free and we have our first guest on the call, this is viktor boberenko, an expert of the bureau of policy analysis. mr. viktor, i congratulate you, thank you for being with us today. good health, mr. sligiu. vitaly kulyk will join us in just two minutes, but let's start with you. in in the format of a flash poll, we ask our tv viewers the same thing as the viewers, do

they see a threat to democracy in ukraine, do you see a threat to democracy in ukraine? unequivocally yes, i see a threat, and zelenskyi’s government, well , zelenskyi’s team is trying to usurp power, they are trying to make this power, as it were, extended... in the past, we remember, zelenskyi said that there, like, i am going for one term, but in reality no, they are already thinking, and not only that, well... when we speak, why do you think so, i have a very big evidence base, yes, if, well, now you need a blitz, yes, that is, i have a large evidence base in order to really claim that this is how zelenskyi’s team wants to usurp power in ukraine, and the usurpation of power is - everyone is the biggest threat

to democracy, we will talk about this, of course, and about those in the course of this program. which we see, and even more so, we must not forget that may this year is quite difficult for president zelenskyi, for the team, and for society, and for those who have to be registered with the tsc and for potential mobilized people, because on may 4 the law that provides for the determination of suitable, unsuitable and changes to limited suitability enters into force, on may 18 the law on changes to the mobilization legislation, the law on mobilization, and on may 20 the 5th anniversary of the inauguration of president zelenskyi, we will also obviously talk about that's all about the context of what's happening and how it's happening, because in fact

, the most important question that exists now is where is the line when we say that there are democrats? in ukraine, and where is the border, when there is a need for restrictions on rights and freedoms, taking into account the state of war, taking into account the fact that russia is waging a war against ukraine, in your opinion, where, where is the line, beyond which the government should not cross, and where is the line, where is civil society should, well, let's say, give a sign to the authorities, of course, not by going out on the maidan, but give a sign to the authorities that we remember about... the fact that ukraine is a democratic state and not an authoritarian one, and we will defend these democratic values, a very difficult question, there is really no simple answer, because well, we know about styles management, yes, there is an authoritarian one, there is a democratic one, there is a liberal one, yes, and i would say that, for example, which army loses,

an army with a liberal or democratic government always loses, an army with an authoritarian government, why, because the army should have everything according to the principle, the order is to carry out the report, and the army in which we will say, okay, we have a democracy, let's decide, let's vote, who will go now to that forest plantation, there like and we all like to vote for that one to go, well, that's nonsense and lies, yes, and stupidity, that is in the army the manager, well, the boss said... everything is moving forward there, i make decisions, including difficult decisions, yes, as i have one of, well, yes, one of my very good acquaintances made a decision when leaving avdiivka , he was the company commander, to leave the wounded, well, that is, to actually leave them in russia, that’s okay, how do we evaluate this decision,

a criminal case was opened against him there, but... i am ready to defend him, the commander made the decision, so that he decided for himself that it would be like this, i'd rather keep these 15 people who remained or 20, so i will leave these three there, or we will all die carrying them out, well, that is, including the commander's right to make a mistake, it cannot be there - something to be investigated, er there or accountable, what is there, what is here... fuck democracy, the commander said , that's all, here and valym, means valym, yes, here, and this is important, it is important that we understand that there cannot be armies in the army of democracy, but in our country we say that there is a military-political leadership, there is no democracy in the army, in the army the order is to execute the report, this is the principle of the army, but in politics,

even in a warring country there must be democracy. and for now, mr. serhiy, we have a country that fights for european values, but the government itself does not profess these values ​​in a run, not at all , well, it does not confess in words at all, and we must at least say about it that our government mentally is not a european government, but our government is thinking about how to preserve power and how to profit from power, including... well, before the war, there was a big spying, and now there are big reconstructions, big reconstruction and big. borders somewhere in the sumy region, well, in the sumy region, they can have a platoon base there, for example, they declare something like 45 million there, what the hell, you sh, you

’re crazy, a platoon base point 45 million, the vaudians will make it, they’ll make it out of some kind of branches, boards there are shalivkas, which are like what they dig up, that is, where there are no budget funds. and it works there, in the sumy region, which has not yet been attacked by anyone, you will build a platoon base for 45 million, and again we have to tell the authorities this, but what is the problem of our authorities, the problem of the authorities in because it ignores scientists, the expert environment, that is, everything that we say there, and what's more, i will tell you that the espressa tv channel, which was on cable networks yesterday, was still in the air, but now i am in i am working on one project in the front-line communities of sumy oblast, then

espresso was disconnected from cable television, and when i called the owner, he said: what about the regional military administration harassing me? weirdo , there are other businesses, we will close you too, that one business, that business, that, if you don't... direct espresso and you won't throw out the fifth one from the cable networks, this is, of course, the pinnacle of democracy, of course, thank you, mr. viktor, for your opinion, vitaly kulyk has already joined us , vitaliy, i congratulate you, thank you for joining our broadcast, i congratulate you, mr. viktor and i have already started talking about how democracy and the restriction of rights and freedoms coexist during martial law. well, no, not in the army, we are not talking about the armed forces, because mr. victor said a little about the armed forces that there is no place for democracy, it right, because the army is the army, and the armed

forces of ukraine must make decisions at the level of the armed forces, military commanders, commanders, and there are no such claims against the armed forces or any objections, we are talking about ukrainian society, about the problems that arise in us, or from the media. with three tv channels, which have not broadcasted in t2 for the third year, they threw them out, with the public channel, which is now dominated by deputies of the pro-government forces, and many, many different things that indicate that there are limits to democracy, and in what proportions restriction of democracy is permissible under wartime, mr. vitaly? and do you see a threat to democracy in ukraine ? well,

first of all, when we talk about making administrative decisions, the current government really does not want to hear anyone's opinion other than its own, and when it tries, and when someone's opinion breaks through the airwaves or becomes significant for society, it causes some kind of nervous reaction to banking, accordingly calls. reachers try to limit this alternative position, alternative opinion, tries remove both the formation space and political life in general. yes, i see a threat to democracy, i see a threat to society in the first place, because nothing will be eternal, but temporary, and if the authorities are now telling us that it is during martial law, what, i'm sorry, we already have now is the war that the suspension of the broadcast of the marathon will lead to media chaos, well speaking, it is an attempt to hide, to hide one's

inefficiency and one's own, in fact, one voice and one opinion are trying to do it , and accordingly, its ineffectiveness is such that... contradicts the values ​​and requests of society , they try to hide and hide the fact that, look, these are all attacks by russians, this is all russian pso, when someone criticizes the current government, that it splits society, that these are attacks by paid crimean bots and similar things , we have been hearing about the hand of the kremlin for a long time, for the last 10 years we have been hearing that all the time, that any criticism of the current government is always putin's attacks, in fact, this is not true at all, because... the office of simple solutions, it generates these pro-solutions , which are not easy to find imperfect, turn out to be criminal, and accordingly, when legitimate

questions arise, and why this... happened exactly like this, then they shout, positive bloggers appear who start shouting that this is all the hand of moscow, that this is all russian pso and russian agents in my opinion, we have a political crisis now, this political crisis is unfolding, it is already measured in the lack of votes in the parliament to make the decisions of the necessary banks, this is the first, yes, they will manage to do it a few more times, and then they will choose whatever they can to distribute in envelopes they can give money to deputies once or twice, and then there is a lot of money in the parliament, but here the question is not even about envelopes, the question is about motivating whole groups of interests, and for these whole groups of interests, financial flows are necessary, there are not enough financial flows for all, kormova the base is assembled, the crisis relations between the local self-government and the center are superimposed on it

, the relations between business and the government are superimposed on it, we hear from the business, every week we hear a dozen, two dozen cases of business squeeze, mask shows, pressure from tax officials, pressure sbushniks, pressure from someone else, someone else, someone else, then they try to let off steam in the form of suspicions to the ministers, in reality it all doesn't work, so we see the crisis that is happening between the situation with the mobilization. since the law pro-mobilization, and the actions that the authorities are trying to play out, for example, mourning the ukrainians who left, were forced to go abroad, they are restricted from accessing consular services in an unconstitutional way, in my opinion, and the decision is made by the minister under pressure, and about by the way, journalists say this, for example, the head of interfax, this clearly declares that this is the political will of the bank even at the initiative of the minister

of foreign affairs. a by-law act in the form of an order cannot go before the implementation of a law, first the law, then any by-law act, and this is also a violation, it is a violation of the constitution and other laws of ukraine, that is why such actions, they testify to the fact that that in the existing way , the current government cannot save the situation, manage effectively, manage effectively. they accumulated a lot of questions that she did not answer has answers and is trying in his usual way through hype, through the creation of an information drive, to somehow give an answer, in fact it is not an answer, it is simply a diversion of attention, so this is how i see problems for democracy, i see problems for democracy, which we have to preserve after the war and during the war, because it is necessary not only to defend ourselves, but also to know that... we

are protecting, and we are protecting our freedom, and freedom must be inside. thank you, mr. vitaly. mr. viktor, vitaly has already mentioned about history with the mobilization law, and not even that, but the restrictions that people who are abroad fell under, when consular offices refused to provide services to conscripted men aged 18 to 60, and i understand that the authorities all - still counted on the fact that our western partners would do their best to bring back men from abroad so that they could fight in ukraine. deputy prime minister for european integration, olga stefanishyna , said that ukraine will not be forcibly to return men of military age abroad, according to her, providing data to territorial recruitment centers does not

mean an automatic mobile. to the front, we are talking about registration and information, why do you think the authorities failed this communication, communication when it was necessary to simply say that all men who consider themselves citizens of ukraine must be registered with the tsc, and starting from may 18, we will not to provide some services there, or will we provide these services in some limited way, and not as simply as we simply descended into the iron curtain. they said, everything, the cantor is not working, there will be no exchange, sorry, the money ran out in the cash register, the case when, i, er, understand and agree with you, mr. vitaly, with you, mr. serhiy, in that , well, this one was, it was stupid, yes, there, like, that we limit there, people in the provision of public services.
