happens almost instantly, because this system of communication and command transmission has been set up a long, long time ago, and so far there have been no problems with this in our area, as it happens with other units, with some it may be better, with some worse, it all depends only from the operational situation on the spot, is the enemy trying to jam the transmission link and prevent data from being transmitted even through the same radio station, well , you've probably also seen these guys who... the russians put them on tanks, they hang everything there yes, how effective is it, and these braziers and these rebs for tanks, and how much, in principle, have we already managed to somehow also apply it? well , frankly, if they weren't effective, the enemy wouldn't use them, we can't point out that the adversaries are there, well , brainless, no, they have intelligence, they know how, they adapt to war and ... all eyes, as we

say, the grills were created by trial and error, that is, frankly, the enemy tried to make at least some means to make it impossible for the fpv to work, and they succeeded so far exactly to this, to the so-called barbecues, some simply, no matter how it sounds, mask their sensitive ordinary homes, some simply make them one more armor plate, it is effective, effective, but disposable, frankly, why, because that once it flies over it... it destroys the pv, the second time it destroys the tank itself, that is, instead of making it impossible to work, they simply increase the number of fpv that should fly by one, ugh, and you know, i want to talk about such reconnaissance drones, which work at longer distances, for example, in we have a video from the luhansk region, where you can see how they are buying there, well, if they can show where the russians were buying there before... well

, i don't know what ours is there, we won't tell you the details, you can see it, here they are, there is such a cluster of russians there everything flew there beautifully, they were bombed there as a result, but we can't say that the russians, well, actually, this is a shot from a drone, that is, such a drone apparently flew there. but a similar story is happening from the other side, that is, russian reconnaissance drones can go far enough to fly, and how would you assess this threat now, i.e. can these reconnaissance drones be seen, shot down, or so far is it some kind of thing that, well, in principle, is a big problem, so in this video we are observing the operation of an ordinary uav only already tactical or... operational level of

the enemy, the main uav of this kind is the well-known orland 10th or its modification. we also have, let's say, analogues of the russian eagle, which work even at the beginning of full-scale, one of which examples is a well-known byraktar, i.e. this also a long-range, long-range reconnaissance uav, which allows us to find the enemy in their rear, in their stockpiles, in their headquarters, and destroy them before they can do anything, yes. now that we, that the adversary is actively developing er, namely , each other's rears, and is trying to observe, er, why is it difficult to detect them, it is not difficult to detect them by themselves, because they glow at certain frequencies in almost everyone, it is difficult to detect and destroy why, because, frankly, the airspace of ukraine, although closed to planes, but the uav of various levels is here, and our air defense forces very often, sometimes it is difficult to detect, because they ... look at the radar,

understand, it is conventionally an eagle, or our uav, or our aviation, or something else, everything that is in the air, the radar of our air defense systems detects and reports, and in this regard, in order to destroy it, it is necessary to confirm that it is the enemy, and not our target, and until, let's say, we know it all, the enemy or it may or may not run, but in the majority, those that fly to specific rears, they try to immediately destroy, and some of them go back... the hardest part is on the demarcation line, where it is very difficult to distinguish where ours are, where theirs are, and the third is also the lack of sufficient air defenses for us to hit every uav . why? because frankly, one anti-aircraft missile that destroys a uav will cost too much more than the destruction of the same uav, so there are nuances, and in any case, the anti-aircraft forces must be developed in order to better cover the rear space of the uav. countries

to prevent the flight of any reconnaissance equipment, well, how would you evaluate this particular type of weaponry, this type of reconnaissance... such long- range uavs, what is the balance of the ratio of our russian ones here, who will win here? here i can only say that the enemy clearly at the beginning of the war had a great advantage in this, since the factories that produced their power were developed quite well, even at the beginning of the full-scale war, but as of today, i can safely say that we ... if not on par, then clearly above them head, it is very, very difficult for the enemy to create new uav systems, taking into account the fact that the last factories were destroyed, which were located in the european territory of russia, on the other hand, it is becoming more and more difficult for the enemy to pass through our line

of demarcation, through the forces of our reb, i.e. they are modernized every time, but it is becoming more and more difficult for us and theirs to carry out these reconnaissances. nibla, that is, it is a good tool, but it is not a panacea, we use it only when we need to familiarize ourselves with a certain area, which, perhaps, based on other data, interceptions, finds its own equipment, that is, conditionally, that radio electronic intelligence or agent intelligence learns about the location of some equipment in some squares , a reconnaissance uav is already calmly sent there, which is already starting. to search for, invent and destroy it, that is, to adjust the artillery. well, but in principle, well , we saw that the russian occupying forces nevertheless managed to establish such, you know, er, not bad, i would say interaction, they did not succeed in this for a very long time, but they succeeded

in the end, when the uav is fast enough, when there is somewhere, even far enough from the front, you see some kind of accumulation of equipment, even a little it stopped somewhere and... it is instantly transmitted to where they have an iskander or something, and it flies there, it is such a serious danger, in fact, this interaction between these two such components, because it does not allow us to freely move equipment, freely move even the same systems through air defense, well, that is , the threat itself is very unpleasant, on it's a pity, she will always be so unpleasant, why, because... said, the enemy does not stand still and is always developing, its development is constant, just like development, and conditionally they found a method to bypass our defense forces, our air defense, our means of rep, we at the same moment immediately begin to look for opportunities to bypass his maneuver,

yes, that is, he found some kind of loophole in our system, we try to close this loophole right away, and the same thing starts to change, and so playing cat and mouse already throughout the entire full-scale invasion, well, we literally have 20 seconds, just yours.. .the opinion that there is now a window of opportunity for the russians, what do we need so that this window of opportunity for them closes on the front in their advancement? continuous increase in the number of artillery, continuous increase in the number of equipment from the air defense force in order to make it impossible for their aviation, artillery, that is , the main task is to suppress their fire means so that we can already maneuver more, without fearing, let's say, threats from the sky , if we can overcome that, that is different, that is, with him... their enemy manpower will not cause us much trouble. thank you thank you, this is maksym matviychuk, the commander of the intelligence platoon of the rubizh brigade, an officer of the ngu, well, actually, i remind you, always join our meetings, now it’s fpv, well, our time is up, then

glory to ukraine, dear tv viewers, on the tv channel, the west studio program. we will analyze the most important events of this week, in particular, we will talk about the strengthening of american support and the situation in the russian federation, which is rather preparing for the so-called existence. bryza and oleksandr morozov. bryza, ex-adviser of the secretary of state of the united states, former director of european and eurasian affairs, will be working on the air of the tv channel. in the us national security council. glory to ukraine, dear mr. ambassador, i congratulate you. well, the key story: the united states gave the go-ahead. congress, the senate, and president joseph biden signed an extremely important package. it is about money and finances, but etechems

will also supply, we understand that most likely it is etecoms, they were a certain red line, i do not know how the communication took place, but as far as we understand, the kremlin tried in every possible way to prohibit the transfer to us long-range missile systems, and it was approved in washington historical decision. yes, of course, this is a historic decision and... you and i have been waiting for it for months. you may recall that back in october of last year, when speaker johnson first became speaker, i expressed concern that he had consistently voted against military aid to ukraine. however, it so happened that the weight of his responsibility helped him to look at the need to help ukraine in a different way. under considerable pressure from president biden, as well as under the influence of president zelensky and evangelicals, including baptists from ukraine, speaker johnson in the end... eventually found a way to navigate the complexities of the us political system and

negotiate a deal. his success demonstrates remarkable skill and strategic foresight. it is good to see that the united states congress is now following the strategic interest of supporting ukraine. regarding the c attacks, we learned last week that the united states has already provided them, albeit separately from the latest aid package, and at the request of the government of ukraine, they did so secretly. obviously, this is a very important step, as it will force russia to withdraw its warehouses supply further from the front line. this will also allow the ukrainian troops to hit the command centers of the russian troops, as well as, presumably, the crimean bridge. there is no doubt that this is yet another violation of russia's red lines, but given the many red lines that have already been crossed, the gradual approach of the biden administration seems to deter russia from going further. now the focus is shifting to whether ukraine can mobilize enough soldiers on

the battlefield and stop russia from breaking through, despite the lack of ammunition in ukraine during the last six months. yes, we are extremely grateful to the united states for all that it does for us. on the other hand, we are also aware that, rather , russia is preparing for another increase in the level of escalation. over odesa by a ballistic iskander with a cluster munition, that is, russia demonstrates that they are ready to raise and raise the level of escalation and the commission of barbaric crimes against the civilian population, and accordingly , we would like to hear that washington understands that it may have to be strengthened ukraine, when we talk, in particular, about very specific systems, both missile and anti-missile, about the air defense system, we do not have enough patriot systems

to close our peaceful cities. yes, i mean, the supply of additional patriot batteries is something that is currently being discussed, and of course the biden administration understands how barbaric, as you rightly described, these attacks on civilians as well as energy infrastructure are. the whole world sees it every time russia does it. she loses more and more authority on the international arena, so i think that additional patriot systems, as well as f-16 aircraft, will be delivered to ukraine soon, which will complicate reprimands. the issue of russian-guided aerial bombs, which are having such a devastating effect on the civilian population in ukraine, and we should reflect on the situation that existed about a year ago, when before the united states provided hymars, russia was free to shell eastern ukrainian cities with artillery, because ukrainian artillery did not have enough range to be effective

to react to attacks, but now everything has changed, and not only thanks to hymers, but also thanks to attacks. while russia continues to seek escalation, it can now only achieve this by targeting civilians. as i already mentioned, the ukrainian military was without significant additional assistance from the us for about six months. russia managed to advance only a few kilometers behind bakhmut, that is, its successes were not significant. ukraine successfully resisted this advance, and in view of the inevitable strengthening of its capabilities, russia's attempts escalate the conflict. harming the civilian population are unlikely to succeed on the battlefield. dear mr. ambassador brysen, i would like to ask you about the prospects for the formation of a new agenda, in particular the swiss peace summit. most likely, the russians and their allies will not be represented there in switzerland at the peace summit, the question is whether the chinese will be there

as observers. how do you think the agenda of what will... happen in switzerland, and in general, will be different now? if we are talking about the prospects of the european union, how seriously will the europeans be ready to defend their independence and their sovereignty in the event of a threat, yes, because the russians are extremely powerfully threatening both the baltic countries and central europe. firstly, based on the experience of mediating conflicts in eastern europe, such as abkhazia, ossetia and nagorno-karabakh, i have noticed that... the tsars constantly seek to play a role in such situations, they perceive themselves as highly effective mediators, which often turns out to be not true so i don't think there's any reason to be concerned about the swiss convening european and american officials, it doesn't necessarily mean a softening of europe's position on

russia's invasion of ukraine, i think key european leaders like emmanuel macron, olaf scholz and others like george. maloney is fully committed to supporting ukraine in its fight against russia. evaluating the level of aid provided to ukraine, it is worth noting that great britain and germany are in second and third place, respectively. their obligations remain steadfast among the european leadership , there is a common understanding of the potential threat to the baltic states from russia if nato's deterrent forces are considered weak, as we have already discussed. president macron stated that it is possible that european or french soldiers could be on the territory of ukraine, so it was wrapped in very powerful diplomatic papers, but, but, but, no one says, well, we understand that there is a certain prospect, and maybe we will have to help us on land as well. macron has come a long way

amazing transformation. he tried to be the only european interlocutor who could... dissuade putin from invading. i will never forget the longest table in the world, when putin was so afraid that macron would infect him with covid in the kremlin. and now, as we all see, macron has become one of the staunchest supporters of confrontation with russia. however, looking at macron's statement that you refer to, i would not take it to mean that france is ready to send its troops to ukraine. as i do not see such readiness on the part of any of the member countries. nato. rather me i perceive it as a recognition of such a possibility under certain circumstances. in particular, if russia continues its current behavior. as you and i have already said, mr. burkovsky, a scenario is possible when coalitions of nato member states will act outside the framework of nato, but exercising its sovereign prerogatives, it can intervene at the request of ukraine, if

russia pushes it to do so. in this context , macron's statement looks like a possible confirmation. conversely, a categorical refusal to deploy any forces of nato member countries in ukraine will weaken the deterrent signal that ukraine's western allies are trying to convey to russia. the visit of united states secretary of state anthony blinken to the people's republic of china is extremely important. we don't know all the details of what blinkin xijin ping discussed, but there are certain, certain parts of the powerful public. signals, and antony blinkin de facto warned xi jinping that it is impossible to pretend that china is not helping russia, because it is de facto providing it with everything it needs for... a war against ukraine, well in addition to weapons and personnel, this is how they help the russians, and blinkin warned the chinese, asked them not to do this. so, in

response xijinping started talking about how he thinks that the united states and china, they, all major powers should be responsible and respect the territorial integrity, sovereignty of other countries and so on and so forth, what xijinpin really meant and how far they will be. are ready to go to the united states in order to discourage the people's republic of china from supporting russia. but china did not give up russia all at once, right? in his peace plan, especially in the first point, regarding ukraine, the main emphasis on preserving territorial integrity reflects china's own interests regarding taiwan. so russia's invasion of ukraine put china in a difficult diplomatic position. china together with russia, or xi jinping together with putin. cooperate to undermine the so-called rules-based international order established and supported by the united states, but xinjin pin is in no way willing

to condone the undermining of territorial integrity of ukraine. by the way, in order to maneuver in this difficult situation, china was careful to avoid open violation of g7 sanctions. minister blinkin was forced to publicly warn china against giving russia any military aid it might need. unlike iran and north korea, china has not become an open supplier of ballistic missiles or drones. i haven't seen any reports of china supplying as many munitions as north korea does. so china is following the diplomatic path rope, and blinkin shares this opinion. his visit to beijing is aimed at continuing efforts aimed at reducing previously heightened tensions in us-china relations. this strategy is consistent with a number of american visits. ministers or government officials to china even before the meeting between blinkin and sinzimpian near san francisco last november. the current u.s. approach

aims to ease pressure on china while making it clear that excessive support for russia could have diplomatic consequences and possibly other sanctions. dear mr. ambassador bryza, well, i would ask you to respond accordingly to what is happening in russia now, taking into account those very different signals. which come from the kremlin, but what they are creating now on the battlefield, we understand, indicates their readiness to continue the war, regardless of these or other signals, that is, we have no illusions, but perhaps there are a number of factors that could demonstrate that that the kremlin is hesitating whether the kremlin would be ready to enter into a very long war, but for now we see that the kremlin is demonstrating willingness to fight for ukrainians. land, sparing neither his soldiers nor his resources. putin feels that he cannot stop now or it could be the end of him, even physically. however, as already

mentioned, the russian offensive lacks success. in fact, their progress is minimal, although they are advancing, but at a very slow pace. it took them almost a year to advance only 16 km beyond bahmud. their inability to launch a successful offensive without an additional one presents a significant problem. during the last mobilization, hundreds of thousands of men fled russia, which indicates putin's internal problems. currently, his powers are essentially in a state of stagnation, despite some progress. it remains to be hoped that the ukrainian forces will persevere in resisting the current offensive, with the arrival of additional military aid, the dynamic will change, giving ukraine some respite before the next push, but... think, even if putin can mobilize, say 100,000 troops for an offensive, where they need to recruit experienced commanders, there is a specific lack of them, in fact, a lot

many were killed and wounded so even if you get more people into the army it would take more commanders that is if you are on the russian side they need to produce a lot more artillery shells and ammo from what i understand they are only producing half of the 155m now and.. . of the projectiles they need for the offensive. yes, they now produce five times more art shells than ukraine. but you see, a significant escalation will require a much larger volume of production. therefore, i think that during next year we will see that russia cannot achieve significant territorial gains, and the ukrainian military will become stronger. and then, perhaps, 2025 will be the year of the ukrainian offensive. after all, if... russia with crimea, it will completely change putin's approach. in particular, his commitment to continuous attacks on the civilian population and

war crimes. mr. ambassador, how should we deal with the publication in the american press, which stated that some american officials recommended our official kyiv not to hit the objects of russian oil refining. whether the white house's warning to ukraine not to strike deep into russian territory, in particular on oil refineries, was ill-conceived and unreasonable. this is a rather selfish, arrogant and strategically unreasonable step. of course, i understand that president biden wants very much to win the election in the fall. i think that it will be better for all of us, for all friends of ukraine, if he wins. however, in my opinion, the importance of undermining russian

fuel supplies. far outweighs any potential slight increase in prices for petroleum products, i.e. gasoline. in the united states before the elections in november. there are many factors that affect the prices of oil and petroleum products such as gasoline. and removing relatively small supplies of russian refined oil, gasoline or diesel from global markets is unlikely to have a significant impact on the us election. from a strategic perspective, it appears that president biden's political team. perhaps she acted hastily, succumbing to panic, perhaps there were internal debates, arguments that boiled down to the fact that you, who are in favor of to allow ukraine to hit russian refineries have warned of potential job losses and a lack of a second term for president biden, which will lead to less support for ukraine if oil prices rise excessively, although there is some truth to these fears. any significant rise in oil prices will be global.

a phenomenon, and not only a consequence of the losses of russian oil refineries. well, accordingly, i cannot avoid the topic of the washington summit, so we understand that a historic summit will take place, a summit during of russian aggression against ukraine, and we would hope that at this summit our status and prospects, perhaps for the fastest possible entry into the euro-atlantic community, will be defined as such, we understand that sweden and finland managed to join... nato in record time. we understand, at the same time, what kind of responsibility this could entail for the rest of the euro-atlantic community, because during the war, well, at the same time, the fifth article of the euro-atlantic union would have to be applied. as far as i understand, nato intends to use the jubilee 75th summit in washington to underscore its status as the most successful military-political

alliance in history. thanks to. which managed to prevent major conflicts between its member countries and russia and the soviet union. in addition, it is expected that the summit will emphasize the need for greater political and military assistance to ukraine, and therefore the readiness for such support. however, as far as membership is concerned, since ukraine is not a nato member, support from the alliance is limited. there were no signs of plans for the accelerated accession of ukraine to nato, and such discussions hardly. will take place during the summit. as for sweden and finland, it is important to recognize their long-standing readiness for nato membership. both countries have been diligently developing their military potential for ten years. finland boasts one of the most experienced armies in europe, with a significant presence of artillery units along the russian border and a powerful air force equipped with american f-18 fighter jets. similarly, sweden has a very capable army and

for'. in the last decade and a half, it has essentially undertaken the obligation to provide military service assistance to nato members in accordance with article five, although it was not yet a member of the alliance. they were also ready militarily to join nato and to participate in the alliance's defense efforts. however, the situation in ukraine is significantly different. in the context of the ongoing conflict, ukraine needs support from the nato community to protect its sovereignty and restore territorial integrity. it is unlikely that the alliance will accelerate the process of ukraine joining nato in the conditions of the current war. however, at the anniversary 75th summit, nato must unequivocally confirm that ukraine's membership in the alliance remains an unwavering commitment and that the alliance is ready to assist ukraine in this, but only after ukraine wins this war. it is also important that nato does not play along with putin's false narrative that it was nato that caused the war in ukraine, when in fact we all know it was...

a war of choice or a war of aggression.
