good health ladies and gentlemen, my name is mykola veresin, it's 17:00 10 minutes and 35 seconds, and we're not what we're starting, we're just continuing the broadcast we started on the 24th. february 22, this is just such a marathon that drags and drags and drags, so today we will obviously talk about the swiss summit, obviously we will talk about nato, obviously we will talk about the situation at the front, and we will start with it. serhii dzherzh, military serviceman, head of the ukraine-nato public league, if he appears before our bright eyes now, i will be very pleased, mr. serhii, he has appeared, it is very nice, good health, mr. serhii. i hope you hear us, i wish you health good to hear, congratulations, great, well, since you

are still a military serviceman, let's start from the ground, why the storming of the pokrovsky direction continues, what is so sweet for the russians in that pokrovsky direction, that they are sticking out there and want it somehow to advance. forward, what is there near pokrovsk, well, in fact, there are skirmishes, as if systematically, and the russians along the entire front line, including in the direction of pokrovsk , are probing our defenses, and where there is an opportunity for them to advance at least to some distance, they occupy there these ee are distant positions and... in this way it moves forward using before that shelling, massive

shelling of our defense positions, however , ukrainian troops, as a rule , repel all such local attacks, and over time these positions regain control over the lost positions, therefore... it is constantly happening here is such an intense struggle and a local large number of battles are taking place in different areas, it is clear that there the battalion holds a line somewhere around a kilometer, sometimes more, because it is difficult to distribute it all, and the enemy will grope somewhere for collision points or certain inconsistencies between different divisions. and is trying to infiltrate there, however, taking into account the fact that our

artillery is working hard, now due to the fact that the amount of ammunition has increased, the enemy, in fact, it does not manage to achieve anything successful, and we, too, somewhere, somewhere we also grope , i would really like it if we were somehow so synchronous with the russians, they are somewhere there , and we are here, this also happens. well , it is absolutely correct, especially the use of long-range weapons, it makes it possible to destroy the weapons warehouses there, their centers control, centers of concentration of manpower, equipment, that is, it is all used, i think that with the supply of more long-range weapons, it will be used more actively, because the more, the more we destroy enemy forces and equipment on the approaches to... to the contact line, the easier it will be directly in the trenches, in the trenches for those of our

servicemen who receive the very line of defense. now this is more of a nato view, we will wear different lenses, the ministers of defense of the nato countries should coordinate the initiative on the coordination of military aid to ukraine and the training of soldiers of the armed forces of ukraine, which now, as the main coordinator of this coordination, is the united states, well, nato is afraid that they say trump will come, and someone else needs to carry out all these... coordinations, not the united states, because suddenly trump will abandon the position of the united states, which is available today, but what is my question here, my question is not this, it is not that everyone in the world, in europe, believes that when americans are in charge, it's quite effective, it's enough quickly, it's pretty accurate, it's pretty reliable,

when there's some european person, it starts calling if he's french. england, if he is english, to germany, and he has to agree, he has to renegotiate, he has to understand, not understand, call back, and it takes a long, long time, let's not say months and years, but definitely days and weeks, then it dangerous for ukraine, in your opinion, mr. serhiy, well, it's very good that the americans set up, set up this system, and it works, as you really noted, that... that they are excellent managers and in principle it all worked, on the other hand, the nato headquarters in brussels is the place where the international secretariat works, there are 500 employees of the mission of all countries, it is much easier to establish some kind of communication there between different countries with the , in order to produce some

solutions at such a tactical working level in order to correct possible difficulties. which carry out issues that simply arise in the process of implementation, on the other hand, indeed, right here in the united states, it is not known what will happen with the next president, there is such an opinion, but the election campaign itself, which will be much faster, also often consists in criticizing the opponents, and here, if the issue of ukraine, there is a danger that the opponents will always somehow criticize this aid, if it is enough. for ukraine, opponents say that you finance ukraine too much, too much , pay attention to it, if it is not enough, opponents can, if they criticize, what, what, more is needed and everything is wrong, work out, so actually, it is possible that ukraine would not be such a topic for these unnecessary discussions, if it all

goes to management, then maybe here... there is too our reason and we will see more such systematic, stable work, which we hope for. yes, to the same place in nativskyi gorod, which means, as far as i understand, not only i, i think, most people that ukraine will not be invited to nato at this, at this summit in washington, which was talked about a year ago, are very active about it they spoke, i spoke, for example, i expressed my hopes like this. and we simply need to confirm that only in the case of the end of the war, and the end of a successful one, we do not know what a ukrainian victory is, we still cannot to determine, a russian victory is the destruction of ukraine, and a ukrainian victory, well, there cannot be the destruction of russia with nuclear potential with the end of russia in the far east, there near

japan, somewhere it ends, then i correctly understand that we must wait for the end of the war and.. . it is necessary only after that to start the procedure that can lead to the appearance of ukraine within the borders of nato countries. well, from all this talk by jens stolton and the statements of president joe biden and other leaders, the situation looks like we must achieve criteria, standards, so to speak, achieve this interoperability with nato as much as possible. and after the end of the war, this process is obvious, we hope, and it is possible to understand our allies and partners in such a way that this process can take place in the manner of swedish or finnish accession to nato, when it was actually a matter of making political decisions, and so we were assured of

this and at the villeneuve summit, obviously something similar will be said at the summit in washington, then... therefore, in principle, there is no reason for us to refuse, today the main reason is that we are aware that a number of leaders do not want to see ukraine in nato for fear of a major war with the russian federation if we restore our territory in the borders of 1991, the internationally recognized borders of ukraine, and then , if, well, no... there is no reason, it is very difficult for us to find any other reason why not to admit ukraine to the membership of this respectable security organization. mr. serhiu, and we... we just imagine exactly what we know, do ukrainians know the principles, criteria, rules of nato, because we are so sure about it we say, but the specifics of the first, second, third,

fourth rule, the first, second, third principle, the first, second, third criterion, i do not hear such, you know, public discussion on this matter, i do not hear that there are simply people, they say , this criterion is good, or we have reached it, and others will say, no, not yet. or they will say, we usually already know this like you, and others will say, we don’t know yet and so on, this is some kind of abstraction, maybe the generals know, but the ukrainian society doesn’t know about it, maybe it’s worth spreading the knowledge more widely that it is necessary for ukraine to join nato in a short period of time after the end, i hope, of the victory of ukraine, the war, now this is some kind of abstraction, i apologize for the long question, mr. serhiy, well... that's right, public control over these processes is important here, so that society would better understand these processes, well, first of all, civil servants would understand what they are doing, if

we were also interested in this, and we understand that joining nato is not only the security sector, and the task for the security sector - this is the reformation of the entire country, and in this case, the annual national program has already been updated, it has been built. that principle, so that there is a clearer formulation of what we need to do, so that it is clear both to the ukrainian side and to our partners, and let's say, when such a clear point one, two, three and all the following are fulfilled, we then see for ourselves that we have achieved a result, our partners can see, and then, if the issue is closed, and when the item is very blurred, then someone can always... nato, you can ask the question that you haven't done everything yet, it would be possible to do something more and

so on, so i don't want to give any examples, there may be different ones, but the fight against corruption sounds very abstract there, there are some such processes, that is, you can always say that you can, you can do more, you can fight better. but here it is really important, i repeat, to have clear points, and then it is clear to us what to do, what to achieve, and the implementation of these points is then obvious to everyone that we have achieved what we planned. the last question from your point of view, please, i am an older person, and therefore i remember the five-point system, i am not very familiar with the 12-point systems, neither are you. a person is not 20 years old, as far as i understand, so according to the five-point system, you personally, having examined the field, what is the road that

must be taken to nato membership, and what assessment would ukrainians give to the ukrainian authorities, ukrainian society, ukrainian institutions, four with a plus, even, four with a plus, everyone, everyone now has such impressions. armed forces of ukraine, and the result armed forces however, the armed forces of ukraine are a part of the ukrainian people. and, in fact, in the west there is a great geopolitical underestimation of the geopolitical importance of ukraine, starting with our historical retrospectives and today's possible impact on the global economy, on food security, in particular, agriculture and the potential of ukraine. it is huge, if we are not only talking about industry, the military-industrial complex, we are talking about people, and in this aspect people are valuable, and people are, as it were, a constituent

country that is a constituent of the european civilization, and in this case, i think that such a greater understanding of ukraine today is in the west, and therefore this assessment is better, an assessment of our... capabilities, capabilities, and a deeper understanding of our mentality, i think that the process is moving in this direction that we will be members of both the european union and nato, i am sure of that. thank you very much, serhiy jerch, a military serviceman, head of the ukraine-nato public league, was in touch with us, now, as far as i understand, we have advertising for 4 minutes, and then we will think about anti-corruption of ukraine, well, which is a component. reforms, which may ultimately lead to ukraine becoming a member of nato and the european community, but anyway, first advertising, then marina bohuslavets, and...
