mexico, the second day, the 2nd of june, the elections in mexico, we don't know if these elections will change anything in the country, even if the same party is in power, because ah, the current, the current government of mexico, he actually, he voted for territorial, territorial integrity of ukraine in the un, well, almost all of america voted for territorial integrity, then... that is, for the well-known un documents, but the question arises, the question arises, what's next? and here it is very important for us that we raise topics that are close to us and latin america, i.e latin america is the principle of territorial integrity, which has not been violated there for many, many, many decades, but recently there was only s... venezuela against

guyana, well, we know that russia clearly set such an example there, where venezuela declared half of guyana its territory, because there is oil there, and it even held a referendum on its territory among venezuelans, which was obviously a pseudo-referendum, everything was rigged there, but then venezuela could not do anything, because the principle of territorial integrity of the country for... . very important, then nuclear-free, latin america is a nuclear-free zone, and rights, and human rights, that is, these are things that are important for latin america, because in the 70s, let's say, dictatorships prevailed in latin america, and now they are dominated by democracies, well, with the exception of cuba and venezuela. and partly

, yes, cuba, venezuela, nicaragua and partly bolivia, but all other countries are democratic, and human rights for these countries, for latin america, they mean a lot since the period when there were dictatorships, i.e. chile, argentina, brazil, a lot of people, let me clarify what dmytro kuleba said again earlier, that he plans to tour the countries of latin america again in the second half of the 24th year, and is there maybe, well maybe, mr. miley, what president, maybe at least someone will be present at the peace summit , is there an understanding of who can be present at the peace summit, we literally have four minutes, but please, miley, miley will be sure, but it is important to us, and dearest we know, he is very affectionate. refers to

ukraine, however, it is very important for us here that everything does not close, for example, on miley, because miley is a right-wing, right-wing populist, in america, in south america, there are quite a lot of left-wing governments, yes, which, by the way, are some of them, to things, he also supports ukraine, yes, here is the president of chile borych, he is a leftist, but he very consistently supports ukraine, so it is important for us to lead in a balanced way here. that is, for example, there was an idea at one time to hold a ukraine-latin america summit, and we talked about it a lot and it seemed to be discussed in particular, argentina as a place, but if such a summit is held in argentina, then not many latin american governments will come to it, well, lula from brazil will definitely not come, and he will not come, yes, but argentina will 100% not come, so maybe, choose a central country, please. and perhaps it is uruguay, let's say,

uruguay is also very favorable to ukraine, to territorial integrity, and the former president of uruguay, he is very famous in latin america, and he once spoke, and he said that uruguay is located between argentina, between brazil, between the two ducks, there were attempts to eliminate uruguay as a state, to seize it, he says, in the end we resisted only because there are norms of international law. that's why uruguay is using it here, it's using its authority, that's why i have literally two minutes, i just want you to also add whether the question of how important or how difficult it is to overcome the influence of russia was discussed, well, we know that brazil, let's say, is included in the brics, where there is the same russia, there is china and other countries, there is a different understanding, although again, brazil is not russia, and we understand, but how strong is the influence of russia and how difficult will it be to overcome it in the sense of imposing its agenda and...

they come from the so-called multipolarity, once again the tradition of anti-americanism are very strong there, so sometimes a paradoxical situation arises, that i say that countries vote in the un as they should, but then some practical actions are more difficult, although in, for example, the same argentina, it voted to exclude russia from the council security, that's what i wanted to give a very interesting example, it is the ukrainian presence in latin america... argentine diplomat of ukrainian origin roberto kozak, so he was like that, a latin american schindler, during the pinachet dictatorship, he saved, attention, 30 thousand hostages of the pinachete regime, 30 00

here is a ukrainian figure, and there were ukrainian figures who also fought for the independence of america, that is, there are such figures too, and i even recently published that simon petliura, well, he was simen, yes, but then he changed his name to simon, that's one of the versions, because he admired bolivar, yes, so there are certain historical traditions, and we can them too, mr. oleksiy, unfortunately, our time is over, but i hope that the realities will also be very good in... and i believe, that you play an important role in this. thank you very much, mr. oleksiy. oleksiy gran was with us, a ukrainian political scientist, a professor of political science at the kyiv-moghlyan academy, and the scientific director of the democratic initiatives foundation. well, what can we expect from dmytro koleba's visits to the countries of latin america, because it really is a big one trade, great economic, great

military power, and to attract them now to the ukrainian side, to the side, to be honest, of international law, and not just. this is very important, although not easy. and literally in a moment news. good evening, we are from ukraine, and now one second, and we will start. so, therefore, about the explosions in odesa and kharkiv, representatives of the local authorities report, in the south the air force warned about the threat of ballistics in the east, the russians once again launched guided aerial bombs on the territory of the farm in kholodnohirskyi kharkiv district. a fire broke out - said oleg synigubov, the head of the region. and 17 of the 16 dead have been identified, the office of the prosecutor general of ukraine has updated data on the consequences of the enemy attack on the kharkiv hypermarket that took place on may 25.

in fact, 12 store employees and four visitors were among the victims of this terrorist act. two remain missing. let me remind you that on saturday the russians dropped two guided aerial bombs on the shopping center. 50 people were injured, the pishka operation continues to this day. and three people wounded as a result of the attack on oleksiyevo-odruzhkivka in donetsk region - announced the head of the region, vadym filashkin. in the morning , the russians dropped a one and a half ton aerial bomb on the city. a child suffered minor injuries, two adults were also injured, they are in the hospital, about a hundred houses were damaged due to the attack, three houses were completely destroyed. and a large-scale forest fire broke out in the velikorubli community in the poltava region, where 5 hectares of litter of the boriv forestry were burning, the head of the region, philip pronin, reported about this, in order to localize the fire to the rescuers it took almost two hours, in total

, 70 firefighters and foresters were involved in extinguishing the fire, as well as almost two dozen pieces of equipment, the causes of the fire will be found out. well, by the way, recently it fell quite well. and near vyshgorod in the kyiv region, i at least saw these columns of smoke very well, and here it is important to understand that now we are waiting for the weather from natalka didenko, it is very important to understand now that summer is starting, it is hot and you have to be very careful if you are resting in the forest , or just strolling somewhere, to be through you a fire did not break out, if there is a rest somewhere, or if you use some somewhere to open a fire, then of course you need to make sure that everything is there to put everything out, because there can be a lot of such... cases, again, taking into account to the fact that it is summer and we are expecting a lot of heat. the russians are openly recruiting mercenaries from africa for the war against ukraine. according to the main intelligence agency of the ministry of defense, the kremlin intensified its military recruitment campaign in

rwanda, burundi, congo and uganda. promises a salary of $200 dollars. in fact , fantastic money for the local population, not much, we perfectly understand that, as well as health insurance and russian. a passport for a soldier and his family members, a specially created unit of the enemy's ministry of defense is engaged in recruiting them to participate in the so-called meat assaults, well, we have actually already seen representatives of... africa at war, and in fact , this $200 for many of them can be never received, this is also true, and the fact that russia is lying is also a fact, you can promise many. the laureates of the lesya tanyuk prize are awarded in the capital. the award is given for the preservation of historical memory. our correspondent dmytro didora already knows this year's winners, he is in touch with us live. dmytro, i congratulate you, tell me who received honors today. greetings to vasyl, i also congratulate our viewers, now we

the les tanyuk prize is currently operating. vasyl thank you very much, thank you very much, dmytro, dmytro didora with the ceremony of awarding the prize named after the outstanding les tanyuk. well, he is both a politician and a theater director and, in general , a multifaceted, bright personality in the history of ukrainian politics and ukrainian cultures international women's health day is celebrated on may 28, compared to 2021, the number of women in the ranks of the armed forces of ukraine has increased by at least 40%. as of this year, more than 62,000 servicemen complete this service. despite this, until recently there was no women's military uniform, but now the situation is changing for the better, and the state has begun to issue uniforms for girls. details are further in the plot. large pants sizes and the constant need to adjust clothes for yourself. such problems

were faced even at the beginning of the full-scale invasion of russia ukrainian servicemen when they were looking for a military uniform. vera apochuk. he has been serving in the fourth separate tank brigade for more than two years. the woman received her first military uniform in the spring of 2022. the set had to be re-stitched. or pants fit you normally there, right? but, for example, your booty fits there, the pants are too long, you have to shorten them, if the pants are more or less normal, personally, i changed my coat, it's a very big problem, because , whatever, but a woman... well, even though she has army, but i believe that she should also look, well, have a decent look. deputy of the kyiv city council iryna nekorak tried to solve the problem of the lack of female unity. from april 2022, a public initiative was launched: arm women now. women began to receive free summer and winter uniforms, as well as

sets for pregnant women. in october 2023 , the state placed a lien on underwear. according to the rules of provision , two sets are provided per year, this is actually a skirt and a top, that is, two such sets, and we as a social initiative developed this lower city, we transferred all our work, patterns, and technical requirements to the ministry of defense. already in august 2023, the ministry of defense put the women's model into production. field form each set is sewn taking into account the anatomical features of a woman. the uniform is available in eight sizes and is designed for height from 146 to 188 cm. in february of this year , summer field suits began to be delivered to ukrainian servicemen. it has a narrower shoulder than in the men's uniform, a narrower sleeve, especially

this is important in the wrist area, because it is masculine, even if you tighten the velcro a lot. there will be a little chatter, the pants have a high fit, the back is even higher, that is, nothing prevents you from squatting down comfortably, in men’s pants, which were previously issued to girls, the fit is low and the hips are narrow, these days the ministry of defense concluded contracts for the purchase of women’s field uniforms for the amount of almost uah 130 million. these agreements should close the need for alignment by the end of 2024. more than 90% have already been issued to volunteers in military units, the department notes. kateryna oliynyk, espresso tv channel. well, that was the news, as of this hour, we managed to tell you the most important thing, and now yuriy fizar will tell you the most important thing about what happened in the world. yury, good evening, please. good evening to you, vasyl, and to everyone who joined

us at this time. today, in particular , it is about whether or not to allow ukraine to hit targets on the territory. the hungarian minister is again going to the terrorist country, and another pearl, i would call it that, oleksandr lukashenka, about this and other things in a moment in the section world about ukraine. well, let me start with this: ukraine, today they concluded another security agreement, it happened today during volodymyr zelenskyi's visit to the capital. belgium, brussels. according to the prime minister of the kingdom , alexander de croo, the agreement was concluded for 10 years, it provides for the allocation of military aid to kyiv in the amount of 977 million in 2024 and the supply of 30 f-16 fighters by the end of the 28th year. moreover, according to the head of the belgian government, the document provides, in addition to the transfer

aircraft, expanding the supply of armored vehicles, naval drones, light weapons and ammunition. as well as the training of ukrainian servicemen at belgian training grounds. well, this evening, i'm sorry, our president is on a visit to portugal, and most likely some kind of agreement will be concluded there too, if it has not already been concluded while we are on the air with you. an important day for ukraine. a meeting of defense ministers of the european union member states took place in brussels today. among the many issues discussed. on it on it one of the main ones was ukrainian, namely the cancellation of the ban on ukraine's use of western weapons for shelling the entire territory of russia. representatives of a number of countries called for the cancellation of this ban, but more on that later, and ukraine allowed to fire at russian military targets on the territory of the terrorist country,

the head of european diplomacy, josep borel, called today before the meeting, what exactly did he say, let's go. let's hear him in direct speech. according to the laws of war, it is quite possible, there is no contradiction here. i can strike back or fight against someone who is fighting against me from his territory. i am sure that the issue of the risk of escalation will be discussed today, but it is necessary to balance it with the need for ukrainians to defend themselves. because now you can't get to where you are being fired at. you are in a completely asymmetric situation and more and more so. becomes decisive, as attacks on kyiv from russian territory will continue. well, unfortunately, neither to josep borel, nor to gencek of nato before. jens stoltenberg does not managed to convince everyone present at the meeting of defense ministers. to the great regret of ukraine , the eu has different goals and different views on the supply

of its own, or rather, on the permission to use its weapons by the ukrainian armed forces. and this is what the chief european diplomat said after this meeting and added: "ukraine's strikes on the territory of erefiya are legal and international law." if they are inflicted proportionally, unfortunately, they did not agree, and also about the main thing that was discussed at this meeting, in relation to ukraine , and, unfortunately, they did not come to an agreement on these issues a common language, so the european union cannot allocate 6 billion 600 million euros to ukraine for weapons, and for several months they have not been able to reach a consensus and guess through which country, from the first time i am sure you will guess through hungary, and this is exactly what this hungary also did so that there is still no agreement between the representatives of eu member states on the possibility of training ukrainian military personnel by foreign instructors

on the territory of ukraine itself. that's right, we have a neighbor. finally, a big thank you to official budapest for continuing to provide us humanitarian aid, but also three dots. the situation on the battlefields in ukraine shows the failure of the event. to give us important weapons and in sufficient quantity, latvian president edgars rinkevičs said in an interview with the american tv channel cnn, and at the same time added that another problem is the ban on using already received weapons for shelling targets in russia. according to the latvian leader, since we are talking about strikes on legitimate targets, this ban should be canceled as soon as possible, and at the same time he urged not to pay attention to blackmail that reverberates. from muscovy that it might use nuclear weapons in response, and that many western leaders are regrettably doing so. next, let

's listen to the president of latvia in direct speech. i fully agree with the secretary general of nato and believe that he is right. this is a rather critical moment. in my opinion, there is no rational or pragmatic reason not to allow ukraine to use these weapons against russia. in the most efficient way. and all the talk about russia's possible escalation is not are based on a very correct assessment of reality. why? but because russia is already escalating. and that is why i believe that those countries that have imposed restrictions on the use of their weapons should reconsider this decision as soon as possible. as we can see, the latvian president also failed to convince the ministers today to allow ukraine to use these weapons and lift the ban. well, it is known which countries resist this, it is primarily germany, unfortunately, and italy, after all, in other countries, some are also not very inclined to

this permission, and ukraine should have the right to use western weapons in order to defend oneself, the prime minister of the czech republic, petr fiala, also said this at a press conference today, what else he said, let's listen to him directly. if it is about... the statements of nato secretary general jens stoltenberg or someone else that ukraine could use weapons supplied from abroad, i consider it absolutely logical: ukraine is a country that defends itself, and as a state , who was attacked, she absolutely has every right, to use all opportunities for their defense. unfortunately, not everyone understands this. we should not rule out any options, says the minister of foreign affairs. in poland, radoslav sikorsky in an interview with the election newspaper answered journalists' questions about whether poland could send its military to ukraine. it is worth noting that this is not the first such

statement by the head of the polish foreign policy department, in an interview with the spanish newspaper el pais, minister sikorsky also stated that russia has been at war with the west since 2011, and therefore, in addition to aid to ukraine, official warsaw intends to further strengthen oho. borders with russia and belarus and added a quote: this is necessary not only to fight against illegal migration, but also against military threats. well, if in some countries the members of the european union continue to talk about what they are doing, not only talking, but doing everything possible to help us resist russian aggression and ultimately win, there is at least one country that i have already mentioned, and this... hungary, which, besides the one who constantly calls to sit down at the negotiating table, says so, incessantly talks about the fact that there should be neither western soldiers in ukraine, nor more weapons. and

yes, this is hungary, as i said, its foreign minister, peter szijjártó, is going again to the country that started this war, and not only is he going, but he plans to speak on june 6 at the st. petersburg economic forum, there and putin will speak, information about this is in the work program of this meeting, the head of the hungarian foreign policy department will speak during a panel on the topic of the future of the oil and gas market, the prospects of global po... and this will be a section on the transition to a multipolar model of the world economy, again about multipolarity and this time it will be from the lips of the minister of foreign affairs of hungary. it is surprising, well, i will remind you that mr. sijarto was at this forum last year as well, he gave the same and the same answer, and by the way, about vovka, the speech, he mentioned russia and i will continue, russia can be invited to

the conference on finding ways. the peaceful end of the war in ukraine, but not before switzerland in june and autumn. this will be a new meeting that is planned to be held in saudi arabia, bloomberg reported with reference to its own sources in brussels. according to information released to the european union, an important question is how to move from next month's conference to a possible conference in saudi arabia. you know how they reacted in russia, the spokesman of the owner of this country, well, the kremlin and in general, in general, the whole country, dmitry piskov said, no, no, they have not heard anything, so far about such meeting, we did not hear that it was being prepared, we did not hear that they wanted to invite us, but they, the russians, are doing everything possible to disrupt the meeting, which is scheduled for june 15-16 in bürgenstock, switzerland, so this is just a continuation blah blah from

russian high-ranking officials. finally, another quote from oleksandr lukashenka. there is no free mass media in the west, there they also close publications and tv channels, and also throw journalists whose opinions differ from those of the authorities into prison. about this today, during a media forum in the city of mogilev, the self-proclaimed president of belarus oleksandr lukashenko said. according to him , ordinary people are tired of information.

one should be ashamed of these words and concepts, they don’t exist in the west, but they do exist, they just called it another word pr, that is, work with public opinion, the essence is the same, let them work with public opinion in their territories, well, first he admits about the fact that he is a dictator, now he admits that there is propaganda in belarus, and it even flourishes, even calls on young journalists to do this, and he explained... even today in mogilev how, that is, don't talk about the war anymore, it's boring, talk better about the milk from our belarusian cows, or about the crops we harvest every autumn, that's the most important thing they want to hear ordinary belarusian citizens, well, but propaganda is flourishing among them, well, for today, i have everything in the world about ukraine column, that's all only for today, tomorrow there will be more, and there will be more in our future broadcast, so don't

switch. thanks also to yuri fizer for information about events outside our borders of the state, well, what lukashenko confesses, well , obviously this is such a confession before some kind of finale, but in any case, we have to do our part, so 10 years of war, the movie of the same name, about this extremely complicated period of time in which we all live , about modern heroes. and the key moments of our history were presented by the espresso tv channel. exclusive announcements and first impressions will be shown in more detail in the story.
