this reality was not single and difficult, because there is no other way. so stay with espresso and let's start with the news. there is currently no threat of a ground invasion of kharkiv, the local authorities assured, saying that the enemy does not have sufficient potential for this, a counter-offensive that the enemy launched this morning in the kharkiv region at 5 o'clock in the morning, current. the defense forces managed to stop it, this was confirmed by the president of ukraine and supreme commander-in-chief volodymyr zelenskyi. he also added that at the moment, clashes continue on the contact line. hard battles to strengthen reserve units are directed to this area of ​​the front. meanwhile, the deep state map of hostilities marks a gray area in front of the border from the ukrainian side. according to these maps, the armed forces withdrew from the villages of strelech and pylna. meanwhile, from shelling. ukraine met them there with our troops, brigades and artillery. it is important that they can

increase and raise more forces in this direction, this is a fact, but our military, the military command, knew about this and calculated their forces in order to meet the enemy with fire. now it's brutal battle in this direction, artillery fire. meanwhile, the civilian population in the border communities suffers from shelling. kivshchyna , a 55-year-old man was killed in the cherkasy silence, a resident of vovchansk was also fatally injured, and five more civilians were injured, oleg synygubov, the head of the region, said about it, he added that there is no ground threat to kharkiv, and mass evacuation of the civilian population from the border is ongoing. we are talking about the vovchansky and lipetsk districts, people go mostly by their own transport, by those they have there is no car, volunteers and the police help.

these border settlements are actually located one or two kilometers from the border with the russian federation, currently there are active hostilities there, so of course, in this direction, given that the enemy is only hitting civilian infrastructure, and we call on people evacuate. a farewell visit to kyiv, he arrives in kyiv. of slovakia zuzana chaputova. this is her fourth visit to ukraine during her presidency and the third during a full-scale invasion. chapotov noted that she arrived with good news about slovakia's aid to ukraine, as the ukrainian media write, it is about more than 4 million euros collected by the slovaks, which will go towards the purchase of artillery shells for our army. the slovak leader has already met with her colleague, the president of ukraine volodyr zelenskyi, and plans to meet with the head of the government of ukraine. not by denys

shmygal, well, in addition to that, i just read that president volodymyr zelensky responded to the prime minister of slovakia, fitz, who insulted, insulted the slovaks for being these 4 millions were collected so that we could stand up to the enemy, president zelenskyi said that skepticism about supporting ukraine exists until the war comes to your home. we wish the slovaks that the war does not come to their homes, but one of the main reasons why the war does not come to the homes of the bordering slovaks. with ukraine, let me remind you, it is from uzhhorod, and so it is taking off in ukraine, immediately slovakia, because ukraine is fighting, and these 4 million are needed precisely so that ukraine continues to fight, so if you do not want to support, well, watch the deep map state, obviously, and don't bother, so a big thank you to mrs. chapotova, of course, for her work and for her position, most importantly. in the kherson community, communal workers clean cemeteries, they collect dry grass and take old wreaths to the city landfill, they said. in the city military

administration, at the same time they reminded that this year on memorial days in the region for security reasons there will be additional restrictions on visiting cemeteries, during this period it is prohibited, except for funeral processions. in addition, it will increase on memorial days the number of law enforcement officers who will patrol the populated areas of the region. and the agreement on ukraine's membership in the european union should not contain any restrictions on territorial application. this was stated by the deputy prime minister for european and euro-atlantic integration olga stefanishyna during the hour of questions from the government. it was about whether the rules will apply to crimea and the occupied territories after ukraine becomes a member of the eu. today, our representatives of agriculture in many branches are engaged in land cultivation actually in minefields. we have today.

shelling of odesa, which became another window for the export of ukrainian goods. we see how the enemy is doing everything to destroy our economy and destroy our energy. if taxes from our. trade with the european union will not enter the ukrainian budget, it is obvious that we will not have enough funds to maintain our army. well , the protest of polish farmers has started again in warsaw, tens of thousands of people have gathered in the city center and are marching to the representative office of the european commission and the seimas. the demands of agrarians are unchanged, the rejection of the european green course and the prohibitive ban on agricultural products from ukraine, why , although there is no ban on agricultural products from russia and belarus, well, less so. the participants of the rally are also collecting signatures for a petition to hold a referendum on the green course, after which they will be handed over to the sejm of the republic of poland . politicians joined the protests, in particular representatives of the opposition party law and justice. we are fighting for

the conditions of the green system, we are fighting for abolition rules that brussels imposes on us: insulation of houses, thermal insulation of cars, we fight for the protection of the homeland and for our polish land, so that everyone remembers that for us, polish farmers, polish land is sacred. i do not like the fact that our polish raw materials, which are available, should be replaced by other technologies that are not proven, it will cause a wave of unemployment and high prices, i do not agree with this, it is a blow to polish families and the least protective... well and there are certain things that change life, but in ukraine today there is a war that can change and take away lives in an instant, destroy families, take away part of the family, destroy the home, take away

the future, kill children, so it is obvious, but we live in a world where changes are simply irreversible, and we have to resist it, learn new things , to be mobile, just about that. they will not affect anything now, the world is becoming different, and i think that in ukraine, at least we already understand it, we are trying to adapt to it. the exhibition for the sake of life opened in the lviv center of mariupol, reborna, and it will be open until 20 may, this is a unique art project, rethinking the vocation of weapons. the exhibition includes military paraphernalia, including tubes and cartridges, which artists have transformed into works of art. exhibition visitors. can donate funds for the 25th battalion of the 47th brigade, which is resisting the enemy in the avdiiv direction. my first works were from my comrade from the 24th brigade, he is now near kramatorsk, if i will not be more specific

, they were boxes for browning second to bullets, here, after 20. on june 8 of last year, we managed to sell it for 12 00, i got the idea that maybe if there are more attributes, i will be able to help more, in fact, my task is to find attributes, wash and sell, if the most expensive, to find, for example, where they can be placed and sold, i have two works, this is a reflection of the spirit of the nation, because i depict only dragons in my work, because these are the dragons that live in all of us ukrainians in our souls, that do not let us give up, that... and help us wake up every day through all the tragedies and misfortunes , to wake up through all this horror and fight and move on to our goal, to our victory. life as a feat within the walls of the lviv polytechnic , a solemn academy was held on the occasion of the 75th anniversary

of the translator of the ostroh bible, father rafail turkonyak. he made three different translations of the bible into ukrainian from church slavonic. greek and ancient hebrew, rafail turkoniak worked on his most famous translation of the ostrog bible for more than 30 years, and in order to type the text in old slavonic, the father created a special computer font with his own hands.

the journey takes place along the evacuation route to germany, then to lviv, and from there to the basement in mariupol, all mentioned in the standup format. our performance, too, has no purpose. to threaten the viewer with the fact that, war, how terrible it is, we all know that war is terrible, but the point is how we overcome our moments of crisis, our own, some mental traumas, experiences, where we find an outlet for our emotions , your feelings and so on. in the center of the plot are four heroines, these are collective images. ukrainian women are created on the basis of real people's stories. tragedy and complex life

circumstances from the stage are shown with jokes. the audience in the capital is diverse, both ukrainians trying to improve their english and foreign guests who sometimes did not even expect to see a comedy. it's about recent history, so there's a lot of tragedy, a lot of trauma, and i want to see that. i mean to be here. in the theater, also adds such an artistic aspect to this trauma, so i'm very interested in seeing the play, and you know it's a comedy? i didn't know it was a comedy, really, it's such an extra twist. this performance already it was also seen in germany, where it was played on the anniversary of the full-scale invasion. the actors admit that sometimes it is difficult to tell foreigners about our grief with humor, but the audience understands everything, wants to... they wink in different ways, they look at such people, as they say in our country, at a serious borscht, they

come with such faces, we we're watching a play from ukraine about refugees, it's a comedy, well, in short, it's very, very difficult to get them to have a real live reaction, because they're used to the fact that ukraine has to be supported like this with a petrified facial expressions, our viewers, i see from experience, focus more on funny moments, on funny stories, well... first of all, because we already have too much negativity in our lives. pro english ciater was founded in 2018. during this time, they staged 15 english-language plays, five of which are still shown around the world. the founder says that since the beginning of the great war, the audience has been formed anew, because domestic viewers began to watch everything ukrainian. in addition , the main task now is to convey ukrainian voices abroad. to the viewer we are much more now we work abroad than in ukraine, because now it is very important to speak with

foreign partners in the language they understand. and now you can't surprise with news, you can still surprise and break through with art, but there is no protection from art. the play once in ukraine will be shown in kyiv in june, after which the play will be taken around the world, in particular to spain and the canary islands. spoiler in sad. stories of ukrainian refugees have a happy ending, which you will find out after watching. kateryna galko, andriy verstyuk, espresso tv channel. oh well, we continue our big broadcast and now we will talk about what happened outside of ukraine. yuriy fizar is with me, the world is about ukraine. yury, good evening, please. good evening to you, vasyl, good evening to everyone who joined us at this time. therefore, xi jinping is not interested in putting pressure on russia. in the coming weeks, ukraine will start receiving new batches of american weapons, and donald trump challenged joe

biden, about this and other things in a moment in the world about ukraine column. well, i'll start with this: russia is and in the near future will be the biggest threat to our common security. about it during the speech. at the american johns hopkins university , german defense minister boris pistorius said: the head of the german defense ministry called the russian war in ukraine the most decisive challenge for europe. that is why mr. pistorius called on allies and partners to make maximum efforts to help ukraine defend itself and added. below is a short quote from the speech of the minister of defense. it is from this one germany is one of the most determined supporters of helping ukraine to restore

its territorial integrity. well, thanks to germany for this help. we would also like vasyl and i to emphasize this more than once, we would also like taurus. so, of course, we understand that there are not many of them in germany itself, but at least a few. well, today i read that france is giving its scalps to ukraine again, and they give it there very cunningly, they write off the old ones. will you talk about it again or will you talk about it i won't just you mentioned it but how interesting they will be to write off these scalps, well, that is, they are not and they are not combat-ready, you just know how the sofa in the apartment is still good, but you want to buy a new one, well, the french want to buy, it is possible to make new scalps, but we dispose of these with benefit for ourselves and with losses for i think the enemy is a considerable one, so we thank

the french, we thank the germans, well, they would have given us more , well, at least those. which are already suitable for the disposal of taurus, these are also suitable for us, i hope that they will still be given in the near future. let's move on, in the coming weeks the armed forces of ukraine will begin to receive weapons and military equipment from the united states of america, we are talking about new batches, that is, in addition to what is already there. this was stated by the official representative of the us state department, matthias miller, during the briefing. at the same time, he added that the government of his country about... what we can do as a partner of ukraine is to continue to support them militarily, to continue to support their economy and most importantly to do everything in our power to help them get back on their feet, this is the end of the quote, and the spokesperson at that

the state department did not answer the journalist's question about whether there is already a decision on the reprimand. the trouser leg of russian frozen assets, when a journalist asked him about it, he simply said, i have no comment on this , i don't know, preparations are underway, i have read about it many times, but when will it be decided, because as we know, europe is now one step, two, three, maybe ahead of the united states of america in the issue of confiscation, previously in the use of russian frozen assets, now this is needed solutions from the usa. any disputes between the countries should be resolved exclusively at the table of peaceful negotiations, this is stated in a joint statement by the prime minister of hungary, viktor orbán, and the leader of the people's republic of china, xijin ping. at the same time , it is necessary to do this in accordance with international law and on the basis of the united nations organization, the leaders of both countries emphasize. well, at

the same time, viktor orban stated at a press conference with the leader of the celestial empire that now... the very pillar of this multipolar world is, well , china should be the drumbeat here. exactly changed a lot and became multipolar, but he, says the head of the hungarian government, plays a decisive role in world politics and economics. well, maybe he could decide if he wanted to, it is about ukraine, of course, for example, if you take this tour of these three countries. europe, he came to france, met with emmanuel macron, and all ukrainians hoped that emmanuel macron would be able to convince xi jinping, but xi jinping continues to play his cunning game. yes, he made some good deals with france, but that exclusively economic agreements. even some french media wrote after this meeting that sidneypin even got angry when

president emmanuel macron together with the president of the european commission ursula fonderlein... tried somehow to persuade him to put as much pressure on russia as possible, but it didn't work out, further, then serbia and then hungary, this is precisely what he wanted the most, he wanted to go in order to probably quarrel first of all between the european union and the united states of america, showing that no, look, there are such people in europe, like viktor orban, or like aleksandr vučić, who also want peace talks, you know, one of the world's biggest buyers of luxury products from french brands, it's from food, drinks, clothes, jewelry, diamonds, it's in china, by the way , then you can just not some certain things, well , again, money that is beneficial to europe, which china is ready to pay for many things, technologies, again, these luxury items and many other things, invest money there in

some real estate, that's all, but what sisypinus now gains, he buys here cheaper. the value of wood in russia, oil, gas, all these things, here he buys what he wants, well, anyway, playing this game, sooner or later you can lose too, i understand that this is obviously a wise man xi jinping, yes, but no matter how you are, yes, absolutely, and what i said about xi jinping not being determined to put pressure on russia, he does not want to, even, i would say so, the head of european diplomacy also confirmed , josep borel, in an interview with the spanish radio station rtv, he said that ... he is not interested in influencing russia on the issue of war in ukraine. according to the chief european diplomat, it would be easier to stop any support to ukraine, leaving ukraine without an option. stand up to russian aggression, but then, says mr. borel, other problems and risks arise, namely, a puppet government may appear in kyiv, russian troops will approach the border

with poland, in addition, russia will fully control the grain corridor, so, says the main european diplomat , ukraine must continue to be supported until the conditions for a peace agreement are met, and until ukrainians can defend their sovereignty and territorial integrity. does xijinping know about this? definitely knows why he's not doing what he needs to do in this situation, considering the fact that he 's repeatedly emphasized how he's frozen around the world, because he continues to play his, only he knows , sit-down game, to a great extent pity. the chances of peace negotiations between ukraine and russia, and this is a completely different opinion, are slim, but one can always hope. such a statement was made by the president of finland alexander stup. he also expressed hope that next year, that is, in 2025, it will be possible

to get closer to negotiations, but for now, the finnish leader is convinced that the only way to peace is through the battlefield and support for ukraine. it is for this reason that the allies must make maximum efforts in order to jointly help ukraine repel the russian even. at the same time, alexander stup also emphasized that the path to peace must start somewhere, and a good start could be the peace summit in switzerland, scheduled for june 15-16 this year, but then let's listen to the president of finland directly speech in order for peace to become possible, a number of conditions must be fulfilled, one of which is the return of the territory. i understand that this is a central issue for zelenskyi. strict security guarantees are also needed, for example, within the framework of membership in the eu or nato. we also need justice, i.e. prosecution of war criminals, and finally

reconstruction. ukraine's path to nato membership is irreversible, putin must realize that his attack on ukraine has failed, and that it was he who pushed ukraine to join the european union and the north atlantic alliance. well putin must understand this, putin will understand it, but as long as there is such a position on the part of sydzenpin, this understanding is postponed for some time, perhaps even indefinite for us, to our great regret. russia currently has neither the intention nor the ability to attack one of the nato member states. the deputy secretary general of the north atlantic alliance, mirce juana, said this the day before in romania, but at the same time he advised. not to calm down, because the kremlin leadership is waging a total hybrid war against the bloc, further quote, mr. deputy, well and at the same time, the danger from it can be very

serious, as russia leads it in various spheres, while the deputy secretary general of nato also assured that his organization is preparing for this. mr. mircea giouanna says that the north atlantic alliance is currently in the process of adaptation and transformation, due to the increase in military production. by the way, here i thought about china, the one who now thinks that he will beat everyone, well, at least the leadership of china, in any case, well, you think that you are now accumulating resources, some technologies, you will win something geopolitically, but why in any case he should understand, i think, xi jinping too, well, putin is an absolutely predictable monster, well , it is clear, he is a monster who has been fighting for the third year in a full-scale war, to this syria, before this... georgia, well , putin is taking troops from ukraine, gathering all this, that has learned to fight and attacks, for example , china, well, that is, in this world you can't think that you are the most cunning, you beat everyone ,

because you sit there on a golden throne in heavenly and you think i'm the smartest, well i think i think so, no, i'm just saying that sooner or later fate can play a cruel joke on anyone, and just when you think you 've outsmarted everyone, well, it doesn't happen in this history, it doesn't happen that way, so it's probably necessary to make decisions now in the interests of truth and interests. peace, because in a peaceful situation you can always solve something, when there is a war, well, it is very difficult. yes, well, we are moving on, in poland they plan to create a constitutional commission to investigate possible russian and belarusian influence in the country, i.e. in poland. this was said today by the country's prime minister donald tusk during the appointment ceremony of the new minister of internal affairs. at the same time, the head of the polish government clarified that the draft law on the creation of such a commission is already ready. now it must first be passed through the collegium on special services, and then approved in the diet and senate. i wonder how long this enactment will take considering. to the fact that,

unfortunately, there are people in poland who can block it, i mean in the highest legislative body. donald trump sucks a challenge to joe biden. the 45th president of the united states of america offered the current head of state to hold a pre-election debate not anywhere, but in the white house itself. he said this during a video message that he posted on his page in his own social network truth social. according to him, he intends to discuss with biden during the debate. the influx of millions of migrants, the decline of the economy, inflation and energy prices, joe biden has already reacted to this proposal of his likely competitor in the elections, but did it with only two words: organize it, whether it was an order to his subordinates is not yet clear, so it is not clear whether this debate will be. and finally, in russia , the hot celebration continues on the occasion of the so -called sabbath of pabedabesiya, which... they

celebrated there the day before. tonight , unknown drones friendly to ukraine hit fuel tanks at an oil refinery in the kaluga region. local media reported a fire in four tanks. eyewitnesses also reported that the explosions sounded around one in the morning local time, which, unfortunately, coincides with kyiv time. how much was burned and why it caught fire, the local authorities do not say. but, as we can see, it burned well and will continue to burn, since our drones can now fly far. well, that 's all i have for today, after all, this week in the column world about ukraine, i will meet with you already on monday, but don't switch, because there is still a lot of interesting things on our air. laughter,
