well, our first interlocutor, the founder of the charity fund "zakryye nebo ukraine", deputy chief of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine in 2006-2010 , lieutenant general ihor romanenko. congratulations, mr. igor. i congratulate you. well, let's start with what is happening in the kharkiv region, what are the enemy's tactical goals, what he might succeed in, how to stop him from doing so on this part of the front. please explain to us. judging on the conduct of hostilities, it is the tactical actions that take place there on the part of the old people, as you know, the enemy struck in the area north of kharkov, it is in four villages, shooting and three more, and in the north-eastern direction, this is vavchank and the strength of the village is more western from vavchank. the enemy

acted on selected vehicles, used several battalions, before that conducted a fire attack and advanced at the present time somewhere advanced in different directions along the contact line from three to 5 km and is trying to gain a foothold in this territory, which before that, let's say a ... was defined as a gray area, the defense forces of ukraine transferred reserves to this direction and is trying to disrupt the plans the enemy, respectively, and first stabilize the situation, and then, depending on the forces to be used there, restore, say, the state at the beginning of these hostilities. in general

, three options for the direction of kharkiv and the kharkiv direction were considered, the first is that the enemy planned, said the representative of the main intelligence department, general skybytsky , to organize appropriate actions against the city directly, for this a grouping of troops is needed, the enemy has somewhere from 150 thousand armed equipment, which is currently not observed on this directly, and therefore about such actions on the current time, well, there is no point in talking, the second option is that the enemy, for this you need from 50 thousand, somewhere in this direction somewhere 55 00 are concentrated, but there are not enough separate forces to make the so-called border strip, or putin it characteristic as

sanitary, that is, which can move further from the border, our troops, 75 km from the border, they are building an airfield there, close to it, well, taking everything into account, it means to carry out this kind of task, which in full not enough strength but well, the question is possible in time, and now exactly what is happening. is now, it is more likely reconnaissance by combat, the purpose of which is to capture the territory, push back our troops, as well as withdraw part of the forces from the eastern front in order to weaken the potential of conducting combat operations of the defense forces of ukraine in this direction. but what is happening around vovchansk, in your opinion, is precisely the desire to capture this city and what it gives to russia. it is included in the capture of this city

is included in what we are talking about, that is , using combat intelligence, identifying some weak points, to capture a place in order to make it a basis for further advancement, if not advancement, then it means building your defense system by... capturing these territories that you and i are talking about to further influence, or if they add reserves, forces, for this we need additional forces, or to hold them for the time being, well , in order to conduct artillery fire, and well, to influence the nearest objects, to give the possibility of our artillery, this is within a radius of 20 km. actively act on our objects in this

zone mr. yehor, how do you assess the situation in the donbas direction. she is heavy. the enemy still has enough forces to organize offensive actions, unfortunately, at the tactical level, but offensive actions, as far as possible, the defense force tries to stabilize, this means stopping the advance of the enemy's actions, and that is why this kind of intensive combat operations are conducted in the first place on the directions of bakhmutskyi, avdiivskaya. and the southern shimarinka, and the general time, that is, until the end of may, the beginning of june, the parties are organizational plan to complete the task, the enemy of conducting

its strategic defense operation, or gather forces in order to begin the second phase, which our president spoke of, of actions in this direction, with forces. whether they will be able to gather the appropriate forces to organize a defense system that would disrupt these plans, that is, action is a strategic factor of time. tell me, please, mr. igor, how do you generally consider the possibility of any retaliatory actions by the ukrainian defense forces, or do the strikes that were delivered, say, fit into your idea of ​​these retaliatory actions belgorod region today, of course, this kind of action. must be carried out in order to weaken the potential in these directions of the enemy, and we understand that, since missile weapons are launched from these territories, the actions of the enemy's aircraft and so on, it means

in the best way, the best opportunities for defeating the superpower of striking those territories, where is the airport. planes, aircraft, the enemy in general, where are the launchers, where are their artillery and manpower, the question is how many and what means for this we have, and there is a question with this, and also with regard to personnel, it is known that from the 18th the law on mobilization will come into force, well, they are trying to carry out these measures within the framework of the current legislation, but... they are not being carried out as quickly and effectively as desired to replenish our brigades, especially those that conduct combat operations directly on the line of sight, in general, if we talk about the border regions of ukraine, about the kharkiv region, about sumy,

what should be the approaches of the ukrainian state to the further provision of normal life and the development of these areas in the future, because on... if you imagine in some foreseeable future the cessation of hostilities between russia and ukraine, our borders will still not be in any obvious security, the question is normal, as you say, life can to be provided only with the appropriate results of the conduct of hostilities, and they are now in a difficult state with us, and we do not have enough strength to stabilize the situation, that is, to stop the actual advance in... the enemy forward, he, if not tactical the distance there is kilometers, but it is advancing, and after that, depending on the capabilities of the defense forces of ukraine, i.e. reserves, which we do not have significantly, we can

talk about de-occupation actions, and due to their implementation and the results of successful actions of this kind, we can talk about , well, your... determining the normal actions of these areas of life, to what extent it can be considered that the help that ukraine is currently receiving from the united states can significantly change the situation at the front, can we really say that all the main the problems arose precisely in connection with this failure in aid, not only, it concerns primarily weapons and equipment, but we have been late and still have not completed the task in terms of personnel, i.e.... mobilization in the third year of waging a large-scale war is belated actions and in very difficult conditions now it will be necessary to solve this issue, to correct this strategic mistake,

in addition, you showed you the engineering technique, the next thing is to make falsifications in such conditions, build in the defense system with this. there is also a big delay and no those efforts, if, but this could also significantly weaken the potential of offensive action, the question is not only that the first lines... of the defense system can be engineering troops or military personnel of the defense forces of ukraine, but the powerful support of both state and private structures are involved in this, under the construction of the falsification, all the necessary border forces and not only throughout the country, only such powerful and quick help, well, will contribute to stopping the advance of the enemy. tell me, mr. igor. that's what really happened with fortifications, this is also important to understand, fortifications had

to be engaged in since the beginning of july last year, that is, by june it was already clear that the counteroffensive actions, they were not successful, did not achieve their goal, there are no forces to carry them out, and these forces are gathered in full volume only in terms of resources for one direction, and we operated in the zaporozhye direction, he headed. these general zaluzhnyi as far as two melitopol-berdyansk, and general syrskyi, well , with the control of the president, i would say so, conducted actions in the bahamud direction, it is already three, and in august, vosyn added a fourth kherson direction, that is, the resource was not collected in full for one, it was distributed for four, of course, this meant that there would be no success in... and in july it was clear, it was known, and it had to be stopped , move

to strategic defense with the urgent construction of fortifications and a defense system. we are six months late, we began to deal with all the fortifications actually from the beginning of this year, and we have the consequences of this, and do you understand why? so that it was decided to stretch the front or for what, but on the other hand, well the russians were stretching their fronts. received a similar result, because a timely decision was made in july, by the way, nato representatives advised not to distribute their resources collected in at least one, these three, and then four directions, but the decision was made by the relevant military and political leadership, and we have such consequences, do you think it will be successful... the enemy is in the direction of kharkiv, can we say that these are local battles so far? well, you and i have analyzed

the situation, identified three options, so far that these are battles at the, well, tactical level, but they can grow according to the second option to this sanitary zone, because the enemy is forming for this and currently has significant forces. what can you say about our side, that's why the time factor requires great efforts on our part and the allies to gather such resources in order to stop the further advance of the enemy, including such important defense objects as kharkiv, sums, well a number of others, by the way, the question is that these resources, they form two armies, that is, 14 divas. 16 brigades, two armies, and that they will be exactly according to

the plans that have become known, that is, the kharkiv sumy, from the point of view of such approaches, one can think about their military leadership to put pressure, for example, on the same kharkiv direction, and hit someone else, where to transfer these resources, the reserves they are accumulating, thank you very much, mr. igor, igor romanenko, for the basic. charitable fund we will close the sky of ukraine, the deputy chief of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine was on our air in 2006-2010. and now to the foreign policy of ukraine, we will talk with the head of the hungarian community of the kyiv region, tibor tompa, i congratulate mr. tibor, good evening, mr. vitaliy, well, the reason for our conversation was the fact that the president of ukraine, according to the information of his press service, talked with the prime by the prime minister of hungary viktor orban. such an unusual contact, because volodymyr zelenskyi and viktor orbán do not talk that often, what

do you attribute this revival of hungarian-ukrainian contacts to, and i would say such positive comments about the conversation the president of ukraine and the prime minister of hungary. well, contacts are really working and the working group is working, and here in this regard, ukraine has done a lot with the adoption of laws on national minorities. and until now, this issue, unfortunately, is still open only from the hungarian side, and the main purpose, why our president spoke. with the prime minister of hungary, this is the invitation of hungary, the invitation of the hungarian leadership to the swiss peace forum, which is soon to be held in the first half of june this year. well, if the president talked to prime minister, this means that gorchyna is ready to take part in principle, orban just

wanted a special invitation, is that how you can interpret it? unfortunately, not at all. yes to everyone, the fact is that orban stated that he constantly advocates for peace, he is for peace and he supports all shady initiatives that are related to peace, but, unfortunately, this has nothing to do with our interests in ukraine, so that orban unequivocally defends racist interests. he does not understand at all what is happening in ukraine, and he is the only leader in europe who has not yet visited kyiv with the beginning of full-scale racist aggression, and what about the fact that you ask that it is supposed to be self-evident that hungary will

participate in the peace summit, well, god forbid that it will participate, but... one of the state secretaries after this telephone conversation in the hungarian pro-government press, he noted that he did not understand the meaning of this peace forum at all, if russia would not be there and what should be negotiated there at all, but already during the stay of the president of the people's republic of china xijin pinh in budapest, it became known that hungary is inclined more to... chinese than to the ukrainian plan to end the war, if viktor orbán arrives in switzerland, or maybe the president of hungary arrives in switzerland, we don’t know how it will look in practice, then in principle, in your opinion, in this situation it will be possible to say that the hungarian representative will

represent the chinese plan there will, above all, present it. his plan, which is very close to the chinese plan , talked about this, and indeed you correctly mentioned at the press conference, the joint press conference uh, on thursday night, orbán, that indeed it is necessary to sit down at the negotiating table and about the peace initiative, but he absolutely... did not specify it, i am afraid that if even hungary someone takes part, regardless of whether it is orbán, or szijjártó, or the president of hungary, i think that again after all, there will be only hollow, such populist statements, supposedly that they support peace, but really

it has nothing to do with our ukrainian language. position, unfortunately, will not have, if at all to talk about how the foreign policy of hungary is changing, in connection with this visit of the head of the people's republic of china, that is it is obvious that he came to beijing for a reason, however, such visits are not accidental, of course, you are 100% right, mr. vitaly, but it is very interesting what is characteristic of authoritarian regimes, hungary. even at this press conference, there was not even a press release about exactly what was agreed about these 18 so-called points between hungary and china, and literally an hour and a half later in the hungarian press there appeared an investigation carried out by marton tompush , the head of the momentum party, who translated from the chinese press that what are these 18

points, sorry, it's just not... lism, neocolonialism in europe, i.e. in fact hungary becomes a colony of china, i will mention only one fact, there is talk of the construction of a railway that will connect the chinese port there, which was privatized by greece with europe and will pass through serbia and hungary, so hungarian economists calculated that this railway will pay off for hungary in 257 years, why all this to orben, why should he buy, let's say, russian gas, which is more expensive than the gas that can be bought on the spot market. why should he build a chinese railway that will not be pay off? what is the point of his activity of this type? well, total politicking, forgive me. orbán is an autocrat,

a dictator in europe, and he is currently as isolated as possible, in fact no one welcomes him in europe, in fact, all these connections with him to date are about... at zero, or below zero, and he frankly declared that he would support china, the so-called open door east, and it was not for nothing that china called hungary a partner of the four seasons after this visit, just imagine, there are only six such partners in china, i.e. one of them is hungary, the next ones... such partners are venezuela, belarus, ethiopia, uzbekistan and pakistan, in what order has

orbán put hungary in international politics today, i.e. serbia is not, for example, among these countries that serbia, which sizen ping also visited, is absolutely not there, absolutely not, well, i think that serbia simply does not pull such a car yet. authoritarian dictator that is orbán, and in fact hungary is the only country in europe, apart from belarus, that can count on such a high honor from sidzimpin, it turns out that in order to be friends with china, it is necessary to establish a regime of such absolute personal power, unfortunately, it turns out that way, and orbán already has considerable experience in this, he is already in charge and started such authoritarianism since 2010. that is, in 14 years , he has already gained such, unfortunately, negative experience and actually isolated the whole of hungary from

the civilized world. don't you think that we can now talk about a greater growth of such oppositional sentiments in the country compared to what we have seen a few more years ago. it can be said that a new generation of hungarians is emerging, which is already looking at the experiment with apprehension. orban, thank god, yes, you are right, it is well known to everyone, a new leader appeared, peter magyar, he used to be very close to the hungarian government, to fidesz, the ruling party, even to orban, and he was the first to break away from fidesz, and to date, he already has a rating of 24%, unfortunately, orbán's is still high, somewhere more... 35 to 40% is suitable, but for these very pictures, what you show is very good it can be seen that the support is very, very large, and what

is very important, peter magyar has considerable support in the province, and the province has always been a support for orbán, even eastern hungary - it is precisely because of this that the most backward region in hungary, by the way, he is there collects a huge number of the population in support, well, let's see what will happen in the upcoming municipal elections and in the elections of the european parliament in hungary, i really hope that, after all, the opposition part of hungarian society for the first time in 14 years can have the majority, the majority in the parliament, i mean. well, if this is the case, will it be a certain signal for viktor orbán? even

today, there is a certain signal, because today even in hungary it reaches such maximum isolationism, in budapest it does not appear at all and appears only in such small ones. i would say, in the villages where he simply surrounds himself with the closest such supporters, and that, by the way, it is also very interesting that he began to speak less on the radio and on television. i understand what is important part of this election cycle is that there will be debates on television, so i understood that they were not attended. high-ranking representatives of fidesz, fidesz for many years, how can it be that in a european country that is a member of the european union, pre-election debates are not held, and the authorities do not want

to participate in them, of course. no, by the way, orban has not participated in any debates for more than 10 years, he is, again, an ardent populist, he is very afraid of losing his reputation, and he has something to fear, and peter by the way, magyar has already stated that he will definitely initiate this debate on hungarian television, well, on orban media with... there is a significant part of orban media in hungary, but even, i would say, there is already a separate such touch, a positive touch, i recently saw on one of these, on a very popular resource, er, which is closer to orbán, materials criticizing his rule began to appear there, so this is already the first such correct sign, well, in principle, you can

say. that what is happening in hungary other such states with an authoritarian system, to a certain extent, when the anti-corruption investigation itself begins, then people begin to think that maybe they are somehow voting wrong, right? definitely, definitely, because precisely on these corruption scandals that were opened, that have appeared to date, well, imagine, in the last 10 years, in fact, 40%. subsidies coming from the european union, in fact, all of them were connected with corruption, connected with people close to orban and his family. well, this is a well-known fact, right, and why do people like it never reacted when it was written about for decades, i would say verticalized corruption, which is related to the interests of the prime minister's closest circle, is here. you know, such

a great positive, thank god, civil society in ukraine is, no wonder, much more developed than in hungary, it has historical roots, in hungary, in fact, it is only budapest and a few large cities, because of such oppression, serfdom , as was the case in hungary, not in any european country, with the exception of the russian empire, but i'm russian... i don't consider the empire to be a european state, that's why this, unfortunately, echo of serfdom, echo of such isolationism, monolingualism, makes itself felt. we can hope that these contacts between the president of ukraine and the prime minister of hungary will continue and that viktor orbán will pay more attention to the evaluation of ukrainians there.

reviews of events, well, these contacts will be able to continue, but i do not believe orban, because again, i watched the press in orbanivsk, and he still believes that even the adopted new law on nationalities does not bring anything back, that is, it is again following the old pattern, and again it is using this issue purely for its own sake. of his dictatorial regime, so here, unfortunately, we do not need to count on the positive, we need to do our own thing, make our own euro-atlantic movement, resist a strong european state and not pay attention to orbán, i think that there will still be coffee for him, thank you , mr. tsybor, tsybor tompa,

the head of the hungarian community of kyiv region, was with us on... we are going to take a break for a few minutes now, but please don't switch, no, no, no, fm, halychyna. listen to yours. lakal fix reliably fixes, my dentist advised me, it also reduces inflammation of the gums, and the price is good, economical. studies have proven: lakalfix protects the gums and fixes the denture five times more reliably, so your choice is lakalka fix, buy with a 30% discount in the podorozhnyk pharmacy chain. the main event of world boxing only on mego, the undefeated usyk and fury will determine.
