there is more, and then they say, oh, everything is gone, you have to think about something, go to negotiations or some other versions, how would you respond to these people who use such a linear approach to the situation, what should be taken into account first of all in this story ? well, really, this is a completely linear calculation, really , just statistically count how many men we have from 18 to 65 years old, for example, in russians, and it turns out that we can continue mathematically. to defend there until the 33rd year, they until the 63rd year, well, that is, to put it bluntly so take and count, break down the statistics, but from the other side, well, for example, the ability of the russian military industrial complex to produce ammunition, although they are significant, but obviously they are not enough, it is not for nothing that putin was in pyinyang today and we saw how serious everything is there , how close they are, how much they form... this is a kind of union of two

dictatorships that will form a single defense-industrial complex, in fact, or a military-industrial complex, and this, it turns out, is what russia is looking for all over the world, including additional in north korea resource. if we talk about the key points, i would still mention the oil prices, because when we talk about the war of attrition, we start counting the gdp and, as it were, at the current moment. russian gdp, the russian economic situation looks pretty good and may even look good against the background of western countries, but if we look at the possible changes in the oil market, this means that russia can lose its surplus profits and even then it will not be able to pay 800 million per signing contract, now the prices for signing a contract, i see that in some regions of russia, by the way, they have risen to a million. 800, which means that they

are trying to invest any money in order to immediately deliver new recruits to the front, new er new, but new contract workers in order to immediately throw them on assaults, because they still lack that human a resource that would be able to concentrate and break through the fronts, and the same with armored vehicles, again today there were satellite images of military bases near... finland, which actually empty, there were other bases before, that is, russia has a critical situation with resources just like we do, of course, both we and russia will come out of this situation in different ways, but what to say about the fact that russia can painlessly fight for a few more years in the same intensity, i would not, but when we talk about a war of exhaustion and the participation of our partners? in this process, because it seems

that the inertia of our partners, in particular the european ones, persists, and there is an impression that they do not take this impression seriously the challenges provoked and produced by the russian federation, how would you rate their readiness to wage a war of attrition and rebuild their economy for new challenges? well, yes, it really is the impression that, in principle, speaking nice words about supporting ukraine and... for two or more years after february 22 , the impression is that our western partners still have hope, but suddenly ukraine will agree to minsk-3, suddenly ukraine will return to some kind of peaceful scenario, and this will mean that there is no need to break the system that was built for 30 years, although it has already been largely destroyed, and in principle the transition to new economic... rates

, i mean not only the military, in general to the new economy and the russian bloc, let's say this, this axis of evil, and the western bloc, it is happening, that is , technological flows are being reoriented, and exports, imports, it is all being rebuilt, but there is hope, especially in europe, that is , the united states is working more actively in this direction, especially since they were not so tied to russia, but the same germany, other countries that were tied to... the russian energy grid have the impression that they still have hope, and suddenly ukraine will return and declare that it is ready for some concessions or signing a freeze or a peace treaty, and then there is no need will spin up this military flywheel, that is , in fact, that is why it is interesting, for example, that there will be a nato summit, because the fund can be approved there, different numbers are called, it was called 100 billion for 5 years, then there was an idea of ​​40 billion annually,

so that nato countries would collect and this, well, we know how the defense industry works, that is, if for example, they will see that there is a nato program worth 40 billion annually, and this program. will mainly be spent on arming military equipment, i think that the flywheel of war will be bored very, very quickly and systematically, and companies will be able to simply plan their profits for 5, 10 years ahead and, of course, will start investing in expanding production, if they do not see basically reasons to plan for several years, they are like us and around the world, they will be very careful about any talk of flying. about the war of attrition and there long-term war, so i think that after the adoption of, for example, at least the nato program, the issue of the transition to a military economy, it will be more active, including in europe. you briefly mentioned the united

states, i have a question, relatively speaking, the current us administration uses an approach to such a controlled escalation, which... affects both the supply of weapons and the restriction of the use of certain models, this approach, on your opinion, whether it is false or justified and, conditionally speaking, they coincide the results of the e-e and evaluations of our such strategy and the american ones? i think that from our point of view, from the point of view of ukraine, of course, this approach is wrong, because in fact, this war could have been prevented in general, because if we recall the first step... biden in his post, he announced a meeting with putin in geneva, and after this meeting he stopped, or rather, allowed the construction, the completion of the construction of the nord stream, and also made several other concessions to russia, that is, the impression that putin promised him that he would not attack

ukraine, will not escalate, biden believed him, as a result, already in the 21st year it became clear that the west would lose. in russia, the west is number two, and this led to the fact that russia implemented its strategy, attacked ukraine and, in principle, planned to finish this issue quickly, counting on the fact that the west would not be capable of any kind of countermeasures. in principle, the calculation was quite correct, if ukraine had not fought, then in principle everything would have ended there, and the west would simply perceive reality as it is it exists, and if putin would dictate. then we know these all. stages, when after february 22 , the biden administration gradually increased, after each stage of escalation on the part of russia, they gave us new types of weapons, the last one was permission to strike on the territory of russia, in principle, if

there was an approach to immediately provide ukraine with everything it is possible, right in february of the 22nd year, everything is possible that is needed to end this war from the point of view of precisely on... unfortunately, the obama administration is acting differently, they are trying to prevent escalation and the involvement of both the united states and nato in a direct conflict with russia, this is a wrong, wrong policy, now we are watching the formation of an axis of evil that is gaining muscle, that is gaining influence in different regions, we see, let's say , an imbalance. nuclear, nuclear deterrence system, now there is already a club of white owners of nuclear weapons, a club of non-illegal, say, black owners of nuclear weapons, and most importantly, the un is no longer involved in any regulation of these processes, in fact we

we are on the threshold of nuclear chaos, which of course russia will contribute to, the only thing holding back, as far as i understand, it is not profitable for china so far, because they are not the leader in nuclear power. races because they are very far behind the united states so really the policy is wrong, if you look at what trump is saying, many of us are afraid of such statements, but actually trump has one good quality, if he says that he will to do, if it is profitable for him to do it, he will do it immediately 100%, without stretching the process for several, for several years, and finally i want to get a short answer from you, what is the optimal strategy for our military-political leadership to follow in these difficult conditions that you described earlier? well, i think that in principle everything is being done correctly, that is, in fact, on the one hand, a strategic committee and a club of countries are being formed, that is, i mean the peace forum, which are ready

to support ukraine, ready to support the peace formula of president zelensky, and on the other hand, try to get maximum support from a military point of view. components, economic components and so on. at the moment, a very difficult period begins, when the biden administration enters the pre-election period, the situation... at the front is critical, so here now, it seems to me, the most important thing now is the most effective activity of the military-political vertical, that is, the coordination of management, the most effective the use of the resources we have and the most efficient planning and conducting of operations. i, for one, still hope that we will have a chance before the end of the year to carry out counteroffensive actions in order to convey to... the new president or the new old president that we have the ability

to conduct proactive, active operations, and not just be in a passive state of defense, because it is very difficult to enter into negotiations from such a position with, well, for example, with the new us administration. mr. mykhailo, thank you very much for your clear and understandable comments on the current situation, i will remind our viewers that it was mykhailo samus, the leader... these were the main emphasis of this day in military affairs, then the broadcast vasyl zima will continue, so stay tuned to the espresso channel. thanks to serhii zgurets, thanks to his guest, a very interesting conversation, but you see, everything will happen before everything is decided, where we will be on the battlefield at one time or another. the enemy is stretching the front, the enemy is trying to attack, the enemy is now transferring his

155th marine brigade from finland and even from vladivostok to the kharkiv region, he is already dragging his troops from everywhere, from the last shores of russia to here, where the fate of not only ukraine is being decided, in fact , but also fate of the russian empire, because it is actually an empire, and losing here means death for them, precisely in ukraine, this is the death of it. that is why we have to help the armed forces of ukraine today, i understand that it is difficult, sometimes i can throw more, i can throw less, but even if there is 100 uah left, you still throw, because you understand, this money is not huge, but now they can really help someone somewhere, not someone somewhere, our boys and girls on the front lines, so i encourage you to continue to collect for the needs that we will voice, so we ask you to join the collection for the repair of heavy armored vehicles in the combat zone in the soledar and zaporizhzhia directions, the repair and recovery regiment works

mainly on the contact line or in the gray zone in the open air in any weather day and night. therefore, for the emergency recovery and return to the battlefield of damaged military equipment, in particular tanks, bmps, armored personnel carriers, a minibus is needed to deliver mobile repair teams and equipment to the combat zone. also pneumo-hydraulic jacks for quick repair of foreign equipment. let's save up for this minibus, it 's worth it. 600 630 00 uah and with your help we managed to collect a large 4865 uah, thank you for every hryvnia and now we will talk, now we will talk for a second, i am yevgenia virlych with us, the editor of the cavuon city publication, this is kherson oblast, i congratulate you , good afternoon, the enemy was pounding all night in... kherson, many places where the defeat came, it

was also about the hospital, and also other points, i don’t know, probably, not everything can be said, not everything can be named, but whatever please tell me what was that night, did the enemy continue the shelling already during the day, what is the situation as of the evening, and also there were many houses left without electricity, so it was actually a very difficult night, we were constantly in touch with our relatives, with our... subscribers, with friends, it was all very difficult, but during the day they continued shelling, literally, recently there was quite a heavy shelling of the city during the day, so the medical facility was really affected, a lot of private houses, well, in general, everything is standard for russians, they aim at civilians infrastructure, people's homes, there are injured no casualties, and a very difficult situation at least today. there was no light during the day, in some areas

the light disappeared and appeared several times within a minute, and so on for several hours, and as of now there is a very difficult situation with light in some areas, at the same time, life continues, even repairs are being carried out work on the restoration of some houses, at least cleaning and even on water supply systems, so there is no water precisely because of the planned ones. repair work, and the difficult situation with transport, due to damage to lines, due to shelling, very difficult with some trolleybuses on some routes, so people have no way to get. somewhere somewhere on a trolleybus, well , buses are also suffering and are suffering from shelling, somewhere yes, and these were long-range artillery strikes, jet systems, multiple-launch rocket systems , or was it ballistics from the crimea, what did it fly in, so that we could understand simple and the scale, and then you can understand the problem, whether

the enemy has really taken over kherson, which putin dreams of, because he said that kherson should be given to russia, kherson was liberated from russia it turns out that it must be returned, that is, whether these were blows from the left bank, or whether the enemy resorted to pulling up there and setting up their launchers in the crimea. well, here , most likely, the military, or the city or regional military administration will tell more, i can only convey what i know from the inhabitants of ordinary residents, ah, and artillery, and that, that, ah,. .. m weapons that can hit from a short distance, i.e. directly from the left bank, suffer very much in front of a minister like gardener antonivka, i.e. its coastal regions are the main attraction of the bereslav district and so on, to tell exactly where it was flying from, it is probably better to go to the regional one, and it will be possible to get this report

from the air defense forces, actually in any case, but by state. the evening is now more or less quiet for you, as far as i understand, but relatively quiet, just recently before my appearance on the air there was still shelling for an hour or an hour and a half, but you talked about problems with, well, at first i said there, that there are 752 dwellings that were written, but you this extended this information that the trolleybuses are not working and there are problems somewhere else, and as for water, i read that there are also problems with the supply. drinking water, again, i don't know how much kherson has potable technical water, i'm just out of the loop and there's no one to ask now in kharzon, so i'm asking you, well, actually, if we talk about the system, then in principle in the city there is water, when the electricity goes out, drinking water, drinking water in the taps, that is, relatively speaking, the taps are only technical, we did not have drinking water in the taps

and before the occupation, so drinking water is only imported, it is available. it is brought in technical water in taps, if the light disappears more or less systematically, that is, due to shelling, for example, a certain area is without light, the water supply is also gradually stopped, because there is no water pumping, at the same time, the light is restored quite quickly, so the situation during which there is no water for a day or several days, there is almost no water, where there is constant shelling, and where it is impossible to constantly supply water centrally, they try to... deliver it, this is bereslavskyi district, and these are districts of kherson, some of which are near the coast, that is, which are constantly shelled, and where it is very difficult to restore electricity, so the water supply there is also weak, that is, water is delivered and it is constantly monitored, that is, there is no such thing as simply no water , but the situations are also different, well, the residents of the village

of zmiivka are being asked to evacuate, half the village has been destroyed, they write in the news feed, i think that this is not just the story of one snake, well, maybe there is a more critical situation, but here is this story, a snake almost completely destroyed, yes it is, but this story asks to evict somewhere to resettle people, that is, to simply evict people to people, well, you know, it's difficult when you have no working capital, or you have to come somewhere, you have to live somewhere, you don't know where you are, you don't know to whom, whether this one is, well, at least this chain is brought to people there, there are some telegram channels, maybe there are facebook communities, some other means of communication to contact people and tell them how you will get out, where you will arrive and how will you live for the first time, at least, because again after all, it is dangerous to leave, it is almost destroyed, but to leave into the unknown, and even more so, because people may simply not have money, well, there is 5.00 uah, but i

will not be able to use this money for a long time, or maybe and this money is not there, are there people here, as they say, such a guide, which... created a virtual one for people, here you absolutely rightly pointed out, there is a lack of communication on the part of the regional council, because they are called to go to at the same time, not only is everything destroyed there, there is also a very bad connection, so they can use in fact, only through personal connections or telegram channels, because the sites may not even load, facebook may not load, in the telegram channel of the regional military administration, if it is about... the berislavskyi district, and this is the community you mentioned, this is beryslav district, there is information about evacuation. the evacuation is organized by the regional military administration. that is, you have to submit an application, and then people are taken to kherson and then through mykolaiv to other communities, providing temporary shelter and temporary funds,

humanitarian aid for placement, at the same time this information is of course not enough for people, because there is no complete information about how they will be employed, how they will be provided with assistance, that is why when people use telegram-kan. you are using the communication channels provided by the regional military administration, it is better to update it immediately every time, but on the other hand, you know, well, if you come to i don't know, well, there are, let's say, certain counters like that in lviv, in the lviv region, i think , that khmelnytskyi receives a lot of immigrants, knows for sure that frankivskyi, kyiv, well, poltava oblast accepts more from kharkiv oblast, but definitely stay in the village, which is definitely completely destroyed. you won't make money there, obviously, but eat as much as you can, if even if there were any supplies, so here in any case you have to organize an evacuation, especially since, well, i

don't know, maybe you just know the history of people better , it’s just how to live there, it’s difficult here, as they say in safer places, well, it’s obvious there too, and i’m just saying that it’s very difficult because of shelling, due to constant threats to the life and health of people in the territory controlled by ukraine. to the ukrainian government, but in the occupation they write about the fact that the occupiers have doubled the prices of medicine, this is just an excuse to talk about life in the occupation, what is changing there, somehow we don't talk about it much lately, well, in general , somewhere they write about zaporizhzhia, what if they didn't come to the bottom of russia for a holiday, the zaporozhians, well, there in the occupied territory, then the russians ran in, started checking everyone's military tickets, mobilizing, well, a kind of panic began among them, or there were no people with balls in the kherson region, in addition to raising the prices of medicines, how? in general, people live, because now there is not enough information about it, well , they don’t talk, yes, please, we lost contact

with mrs. yevgenia, maybe, maybe we him, yes, then we will say goodbye to yevgenia virlych, the editor-in-chief of the kherson publication cavuon city, and now iryna gerashchenko, a people's deputy of ukraine, is in touch with us, and we will talk about the situation in the eu, about the work of the parliament, the parliament was in session today, ms. irina, i congratulate you, good evening to all viewers of espresso, i will start with the fact that i announced this yesterday and was very much looking forward to hearing the report, at least from the deputies, to hear what was said there, the prosecutor general of ukraine kostin, andriy kostin was supposed to come to the verkhovna rada of the verkhovna rada of ukraine, he was invited because he explained some incredible fortunes of his deputy verbytskyi, but andriy kostin did not come to the verkhovna rada of ukraine. he will be called again, well, as i understand it, if the deputies are interested, well, we need to hear, because there is already a story about a dbr employee who apartments for 900,000, he declares some

rental housing for some ridiculous money, that is , there are many such stories, in your opinion, this is disrespectful, was there any explanation for the deputies, why the prosecutor general did not come? yes, today the prosecutor general sent a letter that he cannot divulge information as part of the secrecy of the investigation. and that is why the investigation continues, and you wait, but obviously we are talking about the devaluation of the parliament's zeroing, and the parliament itself was very seriously involved in this, let me remind you that this is not the first vote when the parliament calls for a report whether it is the head of the agency for reconstruction mr. mustafa nayem, whether it is the minister, whether it is the head of the security service of ukraine, whether it is the head of the sbu, or now the general prosecutor, well, we see them all. somehow the letter is sent in the best case and the report is ignored, although in a parliamentary-presidential republic it is obvious that even during martial law

the parliament must play its controlling function very seriously over the executive branch of power, but also over the power structures and over special institutions, and you you know, and one more interesting detail, for example, i offered from the... faction, so that we inquire and demand a report from mr. prosecutor general not only on issues of possible illegal enrichment of his subordinates, but also on control by the prosecutor's office, and on the facts possible political censorship. we sent an appeal to the prosecutor general's office on behalf of the faction after ukrinform journalists published information about the topics. about these closed blacklists there and, in fact , obstruction of journalistic activity, which even led to a change in the leadership of ukrinform, as you know, well, there were different ones in...

general prosecutors, but the facts of obstruction of journalistic activity, they at least kept it under personal control, well, at least they ritually declared to the press that we keep it under personal control, we will figure it out, we will not allow anyone here to interfere, this time i was simply shocked, because we received a letter from the general prosecutor that he transferred these complaints to the kyiv prosecutor's office and a criminal case regarding not even a desire for journalistic activity regarding possible political censorship violated, this is abnormal, and imagine that only 121 deputies voted to summon the prosecutor general and ask the question, why is there no reaction of this structure to the facts of interference in journalistic activity and its obstruction? well, it's really here, you know, it's even worse here, so i analyzed for myself that the people of the communities. well, the public

is like that in general, and people who are more famous or less famous always say, well, it's because the office of the president over there manages everything, it seems to me that many people are very like that, who simply give notes or do not fulfill them what they have to do, or interfere with one's work, can always be easily blamed on some invisible person, i frankly say invisible, because no one knows, somewhere in the office or somewhere else, who and you yourself will take responsibility , a request comes to you, come, explain and everyone always has... i just believe that this is how the government really works, it does not deny, so that there is a problem with censorship, there is a problem with interference in journalistic activity, and that covers it, but you're absolutely right that in the conditions, especially war, when we have to make decisions for each institution, each person, to be responsible,

not to... eat, and that's how our problem deepens, you know, when you are afraid of the office every day, and the parliament has already been afraid of it to such a degree that you yourself are afraid to sneeze without an office, it's a little abnormal, you can already do that and there's nothing to be afraid of, no one knows what you're afraid of, but you're afraid of yourself, me and i want, i want to ask even in the first reading, again, if i am not confusing anything, passed the law on the military police, please tell me more about it, about the duties, powers, what it will change, because... this is such a complex topic, in which, which, in which it is worth knowing and understanding, so i will ask you key points to be voiced, and when we can expect the final adoption of this law in the third, second reading, indeed, today in the first reading two draft laws were adopted, one on the creation of the military police, and the second on making changes to the administrative and criminal code in connection with the creation of this new one structures. the authors of the idea, once again,

referring to... that during the war the number of crimes and administrative offenses increases, including those committed by the military themselves, well, it is true, war is a cruel time when things are different, but, this is absolutely unfair a story when a new repressive punitive body is created, which in this case will investigate military offenses, by the military themselves, but at the same time , the military is not given the opportunity for additional protection, in all countries of the world where similar special structures were created within the framework of transitional justice , a special military prosecutor’s office and a military court are created to hear these cases, in our country, excuse me, please, everything is turned upside down today, you know, upside down, when the military is guilty of everything, they and fortifications are not built, and then they surrender positions there, and

no one asks them... yes, yes, they gave you enough weapons, and you had enough equipment for your units, but there are a lot of claims to the military, now they are still creating this the military police, which will deal with investigations of such offenses, moreover, part of the composition of this military police will be made up of representatives of the armed forces of ukraine, today we have a newly equipped combat unit, well, the armed forces of ukraine have something to do on the front line, but a new structure is being created and at the same time... the authors they admit, they say, yes, it's true, we need to create a prosecutor's office, we need to create a court, we will do it someday, sorry, well, it can't be like that, it should be a complex issue, here is the last example, look, now, for example, chervinskyi's case is considered by, well, the court of general instance, do these judges have sufficient competence, i respect the judges.
