at the moment , we have already observed during the week that the attacks of the russians are increasing, they are asking for letters in larger and larger batches to our territory, there is also an increase in the launch of drones from the air, in our direction, the russians do not, well, in my opinion there is not enough strength to advance, because we are here in this direction, we are the leaders, plus charge the report, yes check,

there was a shot, of course, if, if it was help with long-range, well, shells, then we, well, we quickly , we sped up, we sped up our victory, and we drove away the invaders from our territory, hooked, all disguised. and discussions about whether ukraine needs to be allowed to use western weapons to launch strikes on russian territory, they are becoming louder every day, especially against the background of the attack on kharkiv, in particular, nato secretary general jen stoltenberg called on the allies who supply weapons to ukraine, cancel the ban on the use of these weapons for strikes on military targets in russia, he gave a long interview to the zaekonomist publication, and there he emphasized, first of all zaekonomist journalists emphasize that... for

the head of the alliance, and in particular for jens stoldenberg, it was a rather loud and inappropriate statement. i will quote what he said: it is up to the allies to decide on restrictions on the use of the weapons they supply to ukraine. this is not a nato decision. this is the decision of individual allied countries. some of them have no restrictions, others apply various restrictions. my message, says sto stoltenberg, is that the time has come to consider the feasibility of some of these restrictions. jen stoltenberg said, and so did i i will also remind you that the main delegation, including volodymyr zelenskyi, who literally shortly after the attack on the construction hypermarket in kharkiv visited it, literally against the background of these riots, recorded a video message, it is obvious that his main delegation is to washington, because if washington allows , will give permission to use its weapons to launch strikes on the territory of russia, then this will probably become such a signal, including for other european countries. for

a similar permission, i will remind you that there was actually a statement at the beginning of may the head of the foreign ministry of great britain, he stated that great britain is not opposed to ukraine using its weapons to target targets on the territory of russia, but it now seems that the main permission, which ukraine is waiting for, this is washington, and that's really a big question, why is that, because...we were hoping that today maybe we'll have an expert join us, we'll join, and we'll raise this question, why is that, why is there a lack of authorization from the british in this case , and besides, we read the news almost every day about what or the security service of ukraine, or gur, is behind the attack by ukrainian drones on targets in russia, this is both the refinery and other infrastructure, where it begins and ends, so to speak...

the limit for the use of these weapons on targets on the territory of russia, perhaps it is not quite a suitable example, but nevertheless, here i would also like to put all the dots on the i. well , while we are waiting for the inclusion of the expert, we will show you a report about how the 127th brigade of territorial defense forces, which is fighting in the zaporizhzhia direction, about the way they they work, they work, by the way, with trophy russian equipment saw acacia, after factory repair, it was transferred to the division of western models of equipment. the artillerymen of the 127th brigade, which do not have such equipment, although they dreamed of trying to work with western weapons, please look at this report, they both gave us a backup, that is, as many targets as possible and such that we do our work, help the infantry, well i think i wanted more, because that is 155 out of 155, of course, but well... i don't

see the difference between the fact that even if we we work at our caliber, and we are more of a whole crop than even those who work 155. crabs, why crabs, well, i have encountered more of them, i already know, even if i have seen how they work, they are no different in terms of complexity, in terms of the number of people, that we will not least have to retrain, they will give us something, then it will be good,

we will retrain, but we would still like to have our own domestic one, so that our defense industry will finally work, and we will have our own developments, our own equipment, our own ammunition, so that we are independent from western... partners, this there was a report from the zaporozhye region, and we return to the kharkiv region and to the permission from the western partners to use western weapons to launch strikes on the territory of russia. joining our broadcast is solomiya bobrovska, a people's deputy from the voice faction and a representative of the defense and intelligence committee. good evening. good evening. glory to ukraine. glory to the heroes, today i already quoted stoltenberg's interview, of course he does not specifically mention the united states, but hints that the time has come for the allies. think about whether they should take off there are different restrictions on the use of weapons on the territory of russia, did i state correctly and do i understand that now everyone is waiting for permission from washington, or was stoltenberg addressing all the allies? absolutely correct, you timed it correctly, soltonberseh

addressed first of all the united states, then the most critical germans come to us, and today we have finished the nato parliamentary assembly, by the way, where was the resolution on... the country where, after all, our the delegation would be able to defend the point about granting the right to strike legal targets at military targets on the territory of the russian federation with weapons provided by partners, members of the alliance for ukraine. in fact, it all looked very sad for us for two days, because americans, frankly, democrats , and their eyes are turned away from... my answers, everyone is waiting for a decision from the white house, we understand, to explain that they have an election, it's like that a rather convenient situation, but nevertheless it does not work for us, and there was the same discussion with germany, we also talked about that these are obvious things, but we have to get the opportunity and the right to work on

the territory of the shin federation, and i actually want to thank the netherlands and the swedes on this air, who very clearly and directly ... said that they do not give permission , the netherlands generally held this resolution in their parliament, voted, this is such a clear and quite unambiguous position, and today solttenberg said it clearly and directly, they immediately quoted him, by the way, their muscovites in their news that as soon as the western the weapon hits, or the weapon hits on the territory of ukraine, it automatically becomes a weapon that is used, used by ukraine for the purposes intended for it at its own discretion. it becomes a weapon for the ukrainians to use as they see fit, to prove and talk about what to say about the border today in sumy oblast or kharkiv oblast, how the russians manipulate these distances, the distance, that this is actually a border and was hot point, and it is impossible

to calculate there to a meter of a kilometer, or rather it is possible, but we understand, crowded places, logistics, control points, and so on and so on, this is all the territory of the russian federation. i, i have a question for you right away, you said that a resolution was passed, does that mean that the united states has to comply with that resolution, or is it advisory in nature? uh, i understand your question, and today it was very clearly articulated, again by hansek that actually, when he talks about the fact that he supports the lifting of restrictions, so on strikes on the territory of the russian federation, but ... to make a decision each country should in relation to its weapons, which it therefore gives a recommendatory character, that is, we cannot now state that there is a resolution and there is a permit, this is the most important thing, it seems to me that this is a milestone for the state of ukraine and is necessary for all our government officials who are working and preparing today for the washington summit,

when there will be negotiations with all 32 countries, first of all with the americans, but we must understand that no matter what decision nato makes, the decisions of each individual country are important to us. and today the states will make their own decision independently of what the secretary general says, what the resolution says, the resolution only supports and strengthens and gives us, ukrainians, the basis to work today in that field and under... one more question, see, approximately a month ago, at the beginning of may, david cameron, the minister of foreign affairs of great britain, said that london allows the armed forces of ukraine to use british weapons to strike targets in russia, but this permission is not enough, for example, when the ukrainian president or the ukrainian military say, well, we saw that russia was massing its troops on the... border, but we couldn't do anything because we didn't have permission to use western weapons, well,

for example, london allowed to use its weapons, whether it is the wrong permit, whether it is the wrong weapon, whether it was just words and not actions, please explain, well, look, this is the same issue, and in particular, the production and provision of certain countries other weapons, answered when we talk about the british there, the swedes, the netherlands, it's all the same, it's all the same permission for its type, its type of weapon, for whoever produced something. provided, so coming back, going around in circles, unfortunately, we have the most principled permission from the united states, you know that they act and in particular, uh, we work on goals together, here, accordingly, uh, we need a solution , it is critical that the members of the principled alliance then explain to me one more point, almost every day we read the news that a ukrainian drone flies to...

ukraine, as i understand it, cannot could stop this attack on the kharkiv region and, for example, strike a pre-emptive strike against the concentration of russian troops with its weapons. you know, i would be happy to answer your question, how would you understand the decisions of the stake and what they were made in order to preempt the offensives and introduction of russian troops on the territory of ukraine. to me , the situation that has arisen today in the north of kharkiv oblast, which we talked about almost six months before , is still very strange to me, and we also talked about sumy oblast, yes we ourselves heard the assurances of the main intelligence agency, whether there will be an offensive or not, whether we are preparing or not, and for me this is such a transfer of responsibility from one structure to another, who is to blame for what, unfortunately i do not know again what the bet was talking about and why this was the decision made for the entry of russian troops, and then from the repulse of the defense and so on, or what is based on... our strategy and philosophy in this direction, but for me, as well as for you , the question obviously remains, why there were no

preventive measures things, by ukrainian forces, for example, because now everyone says that there was simply no permission from western weapons, but from western partners, but at the same time, the role and function of ukrainian weapons, which are still there and have been produced for the past two years, are not explained. i have one last question for you, because we have very little time, please tell me, do you see reasons for evacuation now? kharkiv, in fact , our legislation says that we are obliged to evacuate in a five-kilometer zone from the place from the front line, and this is the right to forced evacuation, ee me it seems that this is not yet a reason for forced evacuation, it is a reason for making a personal decision of each of the residents of kharkiv, how to proceed and be responsible for... for their lives for the time being, but the fact that the situation

that is happening, it is quite obvious to me, it is scary, and this was also talked about for barely a few months, they will try to make it, little by little, kherson will rise from the ground, and in this way, by strengthening the fear of kharkiv residents and ukrainians a few months ago, force them to leave from there, well, as far as i'm concerned, it's obvious, unfortunately. thank you very much, solomiya bobrovska, mp, voice and representative. the committee on security, defense and intelligence was on radio liberty. we have everything for today, subscribe to radio liberty channels on the internet until tomorrow. there are discounts represented by coco may discounts on eurofast softcaps 20% in psarynsky, bam and oskad pharmacies. fm:

a storm was promised in the capital. and the storm warning on to participate in the parade, thousands of participants from different american states gathered, they are of all ages, it is like children and students who study military affairs, and also play in military bands, honoring the memory of fallen heroes and studying american history , as well as and the veterans and the military that are connected to the military now serving in the united states military, and the participants in this parade, many of them, they remembered that... that on this day, in addition to the fallen american military, they also remember the people, who are fighting for freedom all over the world, they mentioned in particular that they feel sorrow, both on this day and for the fallen ukrainians who are fighting with russia now. i suggest listening to the parade participants. there are many conflicts in the world now, and i believe that days like remembrance day are a reminder

about those who died. but it's also a reminder of the cost of war so i think whenever possible we should strive for peace and it's sad to see so much conflict in the world today but a day like memorial day is all about remembering about those who died for our peace, so we want to do everything we can to preserve it. it means a lot, to be able to represent those people who were once in the military, who gave everything for us, and to pay tribute to them - it's not something we do every day. and we have the privilege of wearing this uniform, and this is my first time here, me extremely impressed by the number of people who have gathered here today. memorial day to me is about remembering those we have lost along the way, those who have served in the past. as for me, i lost a comrade who served in the 82nd airborne brigade, and i also lost a friend who served in afghanistan in 2012 . so, as a military veteran, when we...

see the flag draped over the casket, we feel sad whether we knew the person or not, we feel it because it shows their dedication to service and country, i'm sure it's the same with ukraine now, every time someone dies, you feel sad, whether you knew that person or not, these words are important, iryna, i know you've also managed to talk to american veterans before, like it is they who are now joining the support of ukraine here . of the united states. ostape, on the eve of memorial day in the usa, i met and had time to talk with several american veterans of the wars in iraq and afghanistan. they are very active in helping ukraine even after the delayed aid situation for ukraine in the congresses, they decided to create a large organization of participants in the wars in iraq and afghanistan to support future assistance to ukraine in the future and emphasized that the struggle of ukraine is also that

ukraine is fighting for freedom. and for the principles of america, it must be supported, and they want american veterans to be more actively involved in advocating for the interests of ukraine at all levels, at the state level and also in the us congress, and i suggest watching my material and listening to my interviews with by these veterans we want the american people to understand that ukraine's struggle is our struggle. we are america's veterans, you can trust us, you know us. you love us and we tell you that ukraine is our ally and we must do more. veteran of the us army , writer and activist paul raykov, founder of the union of veterans in iraq and afghanistan, which has more than 400 thousand members throughout america. he says that after delaying aid for ukraine in the congress, he decided to unite american veterans to more active advocacy for the interests of kyiv. on the eve of memorial day in the united states, he and other
