nuclear, precisely, precisely in a non-nuclear form , they existed in the soviet union, and the fact that they are now attributed such a nuclear role, well, that is also strange, but in general, if we talk about all these absurdities, they are about what russia wants, well it is now trying to close the gap, it was more or less clear that no matter how our partners feel about russia's nuclear threats, in principle. there was an understanding that nato countries would not be directly involved in this war, weapons would be supplied in this way, but, but not their own weapons to the territory of russia, and not their own there will be no troops in ukraine, and now we see that the united states adheres, they, as they say, do not encourage the use of their nuclear weapons, their weapons on the territory of russia and their troops, this remains such a taboo, but france and the united states . they go beyond that red

line. the united kingdom has said that it is possible to use their missiles against russia on russian territory, and france has even reported that there is already a foreign legion in ukraine. and here is the impression that russia is trying to close this particular gap, and this means that they are thus preparing my point from my point of view for the nato summit, for what will be recorded in the final. declaration, they will be very afraid of blurring this red line that nato is not a participant in the war. here, you singled out primarily the european component, the deterrence that russia is trying to implement with such political and military measures in the format of exercises, but it seems that yesterday was the statement of the ministry of foreign affairs of the ministry of foreign affairs. affairs

of the russian federation, which, in my opinion, is clearly oriented towards the united states, they are there talked about the fact that the united states, on the one hand, is supplying missiles with long-range attacks on ukraine, then that they are increasing multi-faceted missile threats to our country in other places, and that the russians say that they will respond in kind by creating similar rocket berths. complexes, i would like to ask you what this is actually about, what mirror things the russian federation is trying to talk about now, how it will affect relations with the american side, and perhaps what missiles or samples of new weapons the russian federation hints, well, on the surface it is very difficult to imagine how russia can catch up with the united states in the framework of the nuclear rearmament that is now... in the united states

, and russia has already done it, well, years ago, in the last decade, it i did it, now there is no money for a new rearmament. i think from the fact that on the surface it might be about, about equipping a new generation of american missiles instead of the atacnus that are coming, i'll just say that the atacnus, they were never nuclear, they were planned to be nuclear, they had lancets in front of them that were nuclear, then. then there were no ataxlas, but now the missile is a precision strike missile, it can be nuclear, and in principle there are talks in the united states that they can even return the ground version of the tamahawk with nuclear equipment, which was in the 80s, if , if there will be such threats from russia, well, at least it is possible, i do not rule out that they are again talking about another... version

of the iskanders, a long range, or a ground version of calibers, that they can also equip nuclear weapons, but that is for now statements, nothing otherwise, it is hard to imagine what else they have in mind, but within the framework of such statements, what symmetry, i think, cruise missiles, cruise missiles and ground attack missiles, they still want to do something symmetrically, and technically now the russian federation is capable, in particular, there ... uh, it is fast enough to ensure the build-up of such a missile potential there, relying precisely on daggers there , perhaps in iskander-adapted ones, or zircons there, which can also become there in the format of a ground version, as far as this direction is now well, under the power of russian federation? well, in certain quantities, in demonstration quantities, well, they can be, just like korean missiles, just like iranian shaheds, just like, well, individual

zircon launches, that's possible, i just very much doubt that any of these missiles have, well, it has reliable, reliable nuclear power. meaning, still, all these missiles, they appeared after a lot of nuclear programs and tests were stopped altogether, the only thing that can be said is that for sure for calibers and for iskander m, well, there may be old, old ammunition , which were made there for oka back in soviet times, for their various naval missiles, it could be, but... well, i doubt that this is a real threat that would not be covered by those patriot and samti complexes that we are getting, even if there is a possibility that half of such

missiles will be shot down, well, this is already unacceptable, it seems to me for a nuclear strike, because it is not known to whom those warheads that will not detonate, where they will fall. oleksiy, that is, i can now make an assumption that in any case in these exercises and in statements from the russian federation, from belarus has more of such a political-ideological, psychological component than the technical components associated with the creation, especially with the use of this tactical weapon on the battlefield . yes, it is more now, but it certainly does not mean that there can be no nuclear threat at all. they can be, well, for example, such a situation when russia tries to restore this horror of nuclear weapons, it is not restored, well , it is possible that at a certain stage they will do something more serious, but if we speak in in general about what can now be called

the karaganov program, well, there is such a russian analyst who proposed there 20 steps to restore the nuclear terror of russia's nuclear weapons, and then now there is a problem... it turned out that he has real estate in those cities of europe, when he proposed to carry out nuclear strikes, and now it is not very accepted, but russia, we see, it is trying to restore this horror and at a certain, at a certain stage, there is a probability, a few percent of probability, that they will be forced to to demonstrate the intention of something there to apply, but so far this recovery has been slow. and while the first role in this restoration is played by lukashenko, not putin, putin speaks, and lukashenko acts, that is, what is on someone's mind, someone's tongue, then i think, now it is all the same, all the same such

political preparation for what will be written in the final declaration of the nato summit, they are trying to influence the text, well then, so that the effect of influence is there. it is essential whether there are certain circumstances when russia will be forced to conduct a demonstration of tactical nuclear capabilities weapons, are there any, conditionally speaking, well, there is, well, there is, i think that, well, as before, such decisive defeats, decisive defeats and demonstrative for russia and painful for russia, they can be, be, well, it seemed that the destruction of the crimean bridge could be such an event that they would prevent it, or some event during the parade in moscow on may 9, or during the inauguration, it seemed so, but now we see that they have even

unloaded the crimean bridge and are preparing for it, the loss of functioning of this bridge, so now it is difficult to say, it's just hypothetically necessary, well, we can assume. there is such an event when they will demonstrate, just too persistently they do it all the time, and it seems that no one is horrified anymore, they still horrify, so such a possibility is not excluded, i still think that something around such a quick catastrophic defeat, and that is why the old recipe remains, that this pill of russia's defeats should be fed to them gradually, so that... they do not have an effect that uses, forces to use nuclear weapons, in any case, the use of nuclear weapons is possible only in the state of effect, in the state of effect of the kremlin authorities, if they are not in the state of effect, well, it is difficult to imagine what it could be. mr. oleksiy, thank you very much for these

important points in this rather difficult and such a disturbing topic. let me remind you that it was oleksiy yezhak, an expert of the national institute of strategic studies, that's how the main ones were. highlights in the military results of this day, and more international and economic news later on vasyl zima's big broadcast, so stay tuned espresso. catching up on the topic of the war, i will say that in india they started arresting people who recruited local citizens for russia's war against ukraine, this is already a big positive. i want to say right away that today from 19:10 to 19:30 i will be broadcasting a special project called poppies in memory, it will be a conversation with yaryna yasenevich, we will talk about rethinking may 8 and 9 in ukraine during. the last 10 years, plus about the losses of ukrainians in the second world war, well , actually, it is important to understand how many

ukrainians fought in the armies of different countries, and how they showed themselves, because in fact ukrainians showed themselves very well in various armies in this great war, and the victims and participants of which we remember, remember and honor today, and we condemn the others, those who started this war, by the way, started this war, i mean both hitler and stalin, they both started this war, these two. bloody regimes, the nazi and bolshevik, the communist soviet regime, and now we will talk about the situation in the regions, the enemy struck different regions of our state, there are different consequences, we will start with a conversation about the kherson region, yevheniya virlych, head, editor-in-chief of the kherson publication cavuon city, mrs. yevheniya, i greet you, good evening, from, it's nice to hear, good evening, although we understand that... today for most territories it is not good for ukraine, and actually for the whole of ukraine, but, but we are overcoming

the consequences, as they say, we are adding the consequences of enemy attacks, the enemy struck today, we will talk about the various communities where the aircraft arrived, what are the consequences, unfortunately, there is a dead woman, there is victims, there are wounded, but the enemy hit the railway station of kherson, as well as the tracks, i read that allegedly they have already resumed the work of the nodal center so... this center, well, tell me more about it, please, yes, indeed, the russians attacked the tracks, the station was closed in the morning for the arrival of trains, well, actually, this kyiv train was updated during the day, examined to make sure there were no wreckage, because we well understand that the arrival is wreckage, it could be the remains of something that didn't break and so on. later, during the day, ukrzaliznytsia announced that it would be restored starting tomorrow

will resume the arrival of trains to kherson, actually this is what concerns the railway, well, here is a big plus, we remember that this is not the first attack of the enemy on the railway station, we remember the terrible story that happened in kramatorsk at one time, well, the enemy hit and at other stations, some are not mentioned, stations where... well, as they say, there are some logistical points, but the enemy is looking for them, unfortunately, people died, and workers, again, this is not the first, and , probably with such an enemy and not the last blow, after the enemy attack on the kherson region was cut off 52 settlements, how is the situation with the supply of electricity in general, with the possibility of using it, is it possible to have some communities where, in principle, such a concept as electricity is something, you know, a very temporary phenomenon. well, i am here now absolutely not not not with some kind of irony, it is not irony, it is pain and because

of what is happening, but somewhere it is possible to restore, how difficult it is to restore, because the blows continue again constantly, we we understand that the enemy is very close, the enemy is on the left bank of the kherson region, please, there are such communities, even within the kherson urban territorial community, this is primarily antoniivka sadovo, some microdistricts of kherson, which are located along the banks of the dnieper and are constantly... under fire, it is extremely difficult to restore there, generators are also delivered there , drinking water, and not only drinking and technical water, also by shelling with a very high risk to life, right there, exactly as you said, you understand everything correctly, there is systematically no light as such anymore, well, after armed forces they freed the right bank and the russians started shelling it, but from that moment there is constantly... either there is light for a very short period of time, or there is no light, in principle, because it is very difficult to restore, electricians died,

emenesniks died during the restoration of electricity, if if we talk about the region, then this is the bereslav district, precisely that part of it that is constantly under fire, and in bereslav itself there are big problems with electricity in the bereslav district, nevertheless. our indomitable people, even in these conditions, the sowing continues, it is very difficult for them, and lately they have noticed that all these may holidays, the so-called sacred dates, they are very... strongly felt by the aggression of the russians, which has increased, very recently , just, let's say, the shelling has increased, the power of the shelling has increased, but not less, even with such a critical systematic lack of light , people continue to work, sow seeds,

work in the fields. well, really, you know, and putin's post-communist regime. obviously , the defeat in the war hurts a lot actually started by stalin and hitler, with their agreement of moltov and ribbentrop, i will remind you that in brest, well, you remember this story about the brest fortress, and at one time soviet nazi troops marched there in a victory parade when they knocked out polish troops from there, so these are regimes twins, and obviously again the modern russian authorities, first of all their ideologues, are very sick of the time... which they suffered at the time from the civilized world, well, it was so simply strange that those who started the war also turned out to be the winners in this the war, i mean stalin and his and his entourage, bilzerka was shelled by the enemy, why did i mention this, because they wrote that a woman had died, there are also three victims, and if

possible also in other regions, the airstrike was on the red beacon, and also the artillery of darivka and... these are populated areas, you definitely know the geography of the kherson region better than i do, these are populated areas that are constantly under this shelling and whether it is air strikes, and other artillery shelling is that long-range artillery is possible and not long-range enemy gets from the left bank, well, that's all the russians get from the left bank, these are communities that are mostly constantly under fire, belozerka was not so often under fire, at the moment... and today, yesterday, and the day before yesterday , a lot of private houses were also damaged there, it is not far from kherson, within 15 km of mine, even the stanislavska community is not far from bilozerka, it is about 30, a little more kilometers from kherson, these are all long distances, that is, all this is from the left bank, darivka, it is also very close

to the city, a little to the other side, with the city of kherson, i mean... and the russians, the red beacon is the beryslav district, and the red beacon is actually the community, as i told you, which has been without electricity for a very, very long time, nevertheless, people live, people try to make sure that life continues in the community, but this in principle, these are all communities that are under fire from time to time, some longer, some more systematically, some less, but here... it should be noted that civilians are suffering, private houses are being destroyed, infrastructure is being destroyed, but today a lot of time during not a day it was light, both in kherson and in those communities that were shelled nearby, you said 52 settlements, trolleybuses did not go around kherson almost all day, that is

, today was very difficult, but actually yes, well, in general, i see what is... okrenergo's decision that they will limit the supply of electricity to businesses from 6 p.m., and then the same thing will happen to the population. by the way, this will be all over the territory of ukraine, as far as i understand, i am very brief, today we managed to get 11 children out of the occupation, from the occupied territory of the kherson region, if possible a few words about this, and to catch up on what horrors continue to happen in the occupied territory, today it became known that the occupier, sorry for the details, but this is news, has been raping a ukrainian woman in the occupation for more than a month, so even with... help doctors, this is before the enemy continues to behave in the occupation, who sing about how they freed someone there, a terrible story, well, it is a good story of liberation, please, if you can, a few words about these children who managed to get out , well actually yes, they create there simply terrible things, it is not known how many children are still left, but there are still children who remained in the occupation, 11 children really managed

to be returned, this work continues constantly, the work done by both the government and business helps a lot. maybe by paying for, for example, some trips of right-wing advocates and so on, and of course public organizations and charitable funds that work on this, but unfortunately, some children remain, we do not know exactly how many remain in the occupation, thank you very much, take care herself, yevhenii virlych, editor-in-chief of the kherson publication kavuncity was in touch with us, and some short news about the kherson region, the armed forces of ukraine managed to reject. occupiers in the krynok area, where fierce hostilities have been going on for a long time, the armed forces of ukraine were able to create a bridgehead there, and , as far as i understand, there is more than one bridgehead on the left bank, and the enemy also tried to attack hydro. cycles to attack ne island, which is also being fought over, well , but they failed to do so, the enemy's attack on nestryga island was repulsed. well,

now we will not go far from kherson oblast, we we will stay for the afternoon and talk about the situation in the zaporizhzhia region, alisa sesoeva, deputy of the zaporizhia district council, is with us. mrs. alice, i congratulate you. i congratulate you, mr. vasyl. glad to see and hear, well , the enemy also attacked zaporizhzhia... the region, in general, let's start with the city, with the regional center, about the consequences of the enemy attack, if there were consequences that we managed to overcome during today, then i would like to for you to tell about them, you know, mr. vasyl, if the enemy had struck probably a little later, the shelling started at us today around 4:35 in the morning, i think the consequences would have been more catastrophic, because in addition to the fact that they were sweating into the objects. infrastructure, which was reported by the military administrations, and they also targeted civilian infrastructure objects, in particular, there were hits in

the cultural center, and even in the park, and you know, ironically, this park is called victory park, and there now it's just that such a huge funnel has formed, and while they in their swamps will talk about their own, make their own victories, here we are people could have been injured here, who could just be walking in this park, and neither people nor animals are safe from russian missiles, an animal shelter was also injured today, and dogs were injured, well, these are the consequences, the main thing is that people survived , victims are not reported, there are no injured victims, so today during the day they eliminated exactly such consequences, in particular, they inserted usb into the broken ones. windows, were working with people, because they were also targeted at the garage cooperative, that's what we see here burnt cars, well, today was such

a bad morning, in total we heard about eight explosions, what exactly we were fired at, there is no such information yet, but during the day there was also a message that there was a threat of ballistics, well, that's why today turned out to be an anxious day for us , well, the enemy is really attacking the zaporizhzhia region, as well as the kherson region. and ballistics, obviously it can fly from crimea, or somewhere from the donetsk region, well, but this night, let me remind you, the enemy raised strategic bombers, here 95 in the sky, also for the first time for a long time , a submarine appeared in the waters of the black sea, a submarine that was a carrier of cruise missiles caliber missiles. well, about the educational institutions and the hospital that were affected, how critical the damage is and whether they can continue to work, well, first of all, we are talking about the hospital, because we understand that people need to be helped and... this is a persistent question, i know , that electricity consumption restriction schedules have been announced for the zaporizhzhia region, we understand that this will also be the case for the entire territory of ukraine, i will remind you once again, that from 6 p.m. they will limit the consumption

of electricity for businesses, then it will affect the population as well, the whole country will save somewhere to a greater or lesser extent so that this electricity remains in the network and is available, the question is how well zaporizhzhia is provided and at least key institutions such as there are hospitals, social institutions, communal facilities that provide the life of the city with generators, powerful generators, is this still a problem today, and maybe it would be necessary to have such large charging stations in order to to support the work of at least critical institutions. well, we are officially informed that the situation is under control, what about the consequences, well, there are such direct hits, as there were from... high-rise buildings, there is no such thing, well , of course, these institutions will need repairs, well, but such that there would be totally messed up, there is nothing as far as

the blackout is concerned, here i am confirming what you said, also said there would be massive business blackouts, but that was started as soon as we hit the dniproges, in general, as far as the civilians of zaporizhzhia are concerned, well, today there were no such problems, interruptions with... light and water, in principle, we can say that the city survived this attack more or less calmly, because the most important thing is that no there were dead and injured, and as for these outages, we are promised that they will not affect the residents globally, you know, there is constant talk of an enemy attack on kharkiv, actually the enemies themselves are fueled by this information and the accumulation of their troops and various statements. which are made by the enemy, well, but attack on zaporozhye, in fact, is no less a threat and no less a real threat. today i read that the enemy is forming new units, even creating

a training ground there to accommodate the military. units in the berdyansk area, we understand where these forces can be deployed, if they are gathered, as they say, mobilized and provided with everything necessary for possible offensive actions, or at least for some kind of march to zaporizhzhia, whether active work continues not only on the construction of defensive fortifications around the city, again we do not name the locations, but you yourself you know very well how the population prepares, how the population reacts to it, because again, we perfectly understand that the enemy is not so far from... the regional center, as it seems to someone who has never looked at a map of hostilities and does not understand , where this enemy is, well , on the positive side, there is information, which is confirmed by official sources, that the enemy did not capture robotina, robotina is a settlement, for which there is almost nothing left, but battles for it have been going on for a long time, it was recaptured at the enemy during the counteroffensive of last year's summer, well, but today the enemy is trying to carry out an audit and is actively trying to seize the works, but from

a positive point of view, that is not confirmed. the capture of roboty by the occupying forces, please, really, you know, the topic of roboty is with us, it is always under a very close eye, but still, i would like the military to comment on this topic, because there have already been such misunderstandings, because there are official comments , and there are people who, for example, watched deep state and voiced other comments, so we always encourage you to listen exclusively official sources of the military, and what... the construction of fortifications, we are constantly informed that this work is ongoing, we have already been informed that additional funds have been allocated for the construction of fortifications, and this is now, you know, one of the main such media topics of our new leader military administration of ivan fedorov, therefore, in principle , we will receive all photos, video comments precisely through official sources, and as for

the enemy, unfortunately... we will understand that he is strengthening, moreover, we know that in the occupied territories began mobilization, and it is already official, well, of course, if you can call it that, their official occupation administration has issued a decree, so now there is active military registration, and we understand that in addition to the fact that they are constantly bringing russians from continental russia, because report that the local population in the occupied territories of the zaporizhia region. probably a third remained, all the rest are imported russians, and most likely after this mobilization, the inhabitants of the occupied territories will be forced to fight territories of the russian federation, that is, this is such a terrible reality there, well, we have today, by the way, i will remind our viewers that there will be a special project, in fact, it lasts all day on the espresso poppy of memory tv channel from 19:10 to 19:30, it will be on the air of our program. well, and

in connection with this, i would like to ask you about today's relationship in zaporizhzhia to may 8, may 9, the day of commemoration and remembrance, whether there are still people for whom it is relevant which is called pobidab, because the day of victory is one thing, of course, but it would be completely different, this is how russia presents this event, i will remind you again, the soviet union, headed by stalin at that time, was as much the culprit of the war as hitler, because the soviet union saturated hitler with resources, began war together with hitler and concluded an agreement with hitler for the start of the war and for the division of europe, in fact, without the soviet union there would be no national germany, i understand very well that many of hitler's generals and soldiers were trained in the territory of the soviet union, because after the treaty of versailles germany did not have the right to conduct any military exercises on the territory of germany, so it was done outside germany, on the territory of the soviet union, i will simply remind you of this today constantly, for those

who do not remember how the friend started. world war, how is this day perceived in zaporizhzhia today, and again, are there people who still want to return to the past, please, well, as for today, you know, the people of zaporizhzhia were a little not up to it, precisely because of massive attacks, but if look at how it happened during the last two years, of course, there is no such victory news anymore, as we will say, there was like it was eight years ago and five years ago, still this wave. it is fading a little, and of course, we cannot say that all of us in zaporizhzhia are now exclusively patriots of ukraine and the influence of the russian peace, which lasted for many, many years, has been completely eradicated, but at least we can say for sure that these people have become fewer , and if they are, then they are not advertising their position now, because...
