even some of them organized their headquarters, and then it all disappeared immediately, because it is clear that there will be no elections, i was very brief, literally 10 seconds, but now there are some such rumors about the fact that we are starting to prepare for the elections, somewhere in someone from it appears that now in this sense it is dead, and everyone understands that now it is not worth preparing for it, it will not happen, according to my observations, six months ago we definitely saw active headquarters, oh such pre-election games are extremely big, now i i personally do not observe this. but this is the season of political intrigues fully open, at least in drowning their supposed political opponents, are now working, working non- stop. thank you very much for participating, thank you for your comments, oleksiy koshal was with us, historian, head of the committee of voters of ukraine, and literally in a few moments of news. good evening, we are from ukraine. so

, let's get started. muscovites continuously attack antonivka in the kherson region, as a result of one of the shellings, the house caught fire, when the rescuers came to put out the flames, the russians hit the comrades, well, actually, this is their traditional terrorist practice, criminal. in another district, villages were hit by a tank, there is no information about the wounded, reports the head of the kherson city military administration, roman morochko. another house caught fire due to shelling from the garden. and the russians vilely attacked an ambulance with drones in novovorontsovka in the kherson region, the ambulance was damaged, fortunately the people were not injured. a civilian car was also hit, the driver of the vehicle was previously injured. well, the situation at the burshtyn thermal power plant is critical - the mayor of burshtyn, vasyl andrieshyn, announced this. he said that last year there were two russians. hit the enterprise, then

damaged the roof of the building. to date , there have been more than a dozen such attacks, and the chances that the station will resume operation in the winter are very low, andrieshyn said. currently, the city authorities are working to build two boiler houses for residential buildings and four more for kindergartens and schools. this is the situation the day before, well here it is conventionally the day before winter, because of course we understand that it is summer, it already smells like winter, because it is approaching, the situation... change something, we see, here you are, burshtynska tess, they are changing, they will not turn off the lights in part of the front-line territories of ukraine, at least, this is what the head of ukrenergo volodymyr kudrytskyi said in an interview with hromadske. the restrictions will be canceled due to the difficult humanitarian situation and the threat to the lives of peaceful citizens. according to kudrytskyi, the cabinet of ministers is currently working on the possibility of changing the method of applying shutdowns for settlements that are located close to the front line. well,

security in ukraine largely depends on those agreements that ukrainian high-ranking officials conclude today outside the borders of our country. an important day, ukraine and the european union signed a security agreement, it happened in brussels, in belgium, at the leaders' summit. ukraine does not want to prolong the war, we do not want it to continue with our hands, quoting the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelenskyi. together with partners, our state will prepare an action plan based on the points of the peace formula. for several months to stop russian aggression. the president of the european council, charles michel , said that the agreement would guarantee a long-term one support of ukraine. similar documents were also signed with lithuania and estonia. armenia has called for an immediate ceasefire in ukraine - local media reported the statement of the head of the ministry of foreign affairs, ararat mirzoyan. yerevan opposes hostilities in ukraine, because the country itself.

faced similar destruction in the south caucasus region. the official emphasizes that he supports not only peace and stability, but also, what is important, the territorial integrity of all countries. earlier, the prime minister of armenia, nikol pashinyan, stated that his the state was never an ally of russia in the war against ukraine. in fact, this is a very important statement, we know what armenia and azerbaijan have experienced in this story with nagorno-karabakh. we see how this situation ended, they are not shooting there now, the russian troops were withdrawn from the territory of the armenians, they were there, and armenia, which has always been traditionally for a long time, that it is pro-russian there, they are under there, because there are also russian troops, and times change, so you should always have constant interests, when your constant interests are integrity, peace, security, and you promote it and support your friends, partners in peace, in security, in the fight against the enemy, comes... and they

support you, so you always have to have your interests, the right ones, and then your partners will support you, someone will become partner, thank you very much, by the way, to the brothers of the armenian people for such a good statement, and i think that this is not only a statement, it is also an action. germany will continue training ukrainian recruits in 2025 - said the head of the european union command, andres marlow. even more ukrainian military will be able to undergo basic training abroad, in germany instructors from 14 countries are training snipers, tankers, engineers, air defense soldiers, drone operators and paramedics. in one word, i thanked the armenians very much for this statement, of course we thank everyone, and many representatives of the georgian people are fighting in ukraine, the georgian legion, i don’t know, i have friends on facebook, brothers from azerbaijan who are fighting for ukraine and for themselves as well , so of course we have support from

different countries, no matter who is there relations, we are always for peace, for security, for territorial integrity and for everything to be decided as much as possible at the negotiating table for all peoples, who both the government and... the forces of their citizens and direct participation in the war on the side of ukraine help us all a great thanks and honor and eternal memory, by the way, to all fallen fighters for ukraine from other countries who came here as volunteers to support us. that's why it was important to say it. i am a powerful impetus for the development of technical education at the national university of lviv polytechnic opened a research and educational center of engineering and robotics. within the project. the university received equipment for four modern laboratories and an inclusive space without restrictions. the total cost is about half a million dollars. well , first of all, this center will play three main functions: the first is as an educational center, we will train our students,

and not only ours, we are open to cooperation, as well as sporttech education, which needs just such specialists, very close to specialized targets, and most importantly, this center is allowed. do and allows it perform, because it is a modern equipment that has very high precision and very high efficiency, and accordingly it provides high productivity, why these machines are good for students? first of all , that until today the student did not even have a similar type of old soviet-era machine, but this is a modern american -made machine, where the student can practically see the program that he wrote, whether in a specialized program or in... convenient mode and try it in action. a saving book for the blind. lviv regional office, the ukrainian union of people with disabilities in partnership with the lviv polytechnic resource center printed 10 new literary works in braille with a total

circulation of 500 books. they also produced their audio versions, involving professional actors and blind children for this. she acted as a financial partner of the project. association of the blind and visually impaired with the support of the abelis foundation. tomorrow, the organization will send all inclusive books to blind children in different regions of our country. actually, the uniqueness of our books lies in the fact that they adapted for the sighted and for the completely blind, i.e. they have braille, plain flat, colored reliefs and most importantly, tactile... qr code with audio version in roles, these books are fundamentally in color, not black and white, like the old books for the blind, that is, they are fully colored, colorful and attractive to the eye. well, actually, our whole team was engaged in the selection of books, we consulted, we

consulted with parents, we consulted with children, yes, we looked at what books are currently popular, interesting, some books were recommended to us by children that they really wanted to read, we were guided by... the fact that the books were aimed at preschoolers, that is, from abetka and in particular such very inclusive social books. a great initiative, and a great implementation. the second anniversary of the tragedy in kremenchuk. on june 27, two years ago, the enemy launched a missile strike, targeting the shopping center. then, let me remind you, 22 people died. ivan melekhovets, alone. one of the first to arrive at the destroyed amstor, to save people, his memories of horror, and that day in our next story, let's see, more than a hundred rescuers, 20 pieces of equipment and a fire train, terrible events in kremenchuk on june 27, 2022

, firefighter ivan melikhovets saw with his own eyes, after the air alarm signal, he and his colleagues went down to the shelter, already in a few minutes they heard the sound of an explosion. dispatchers immediately began to receive messages, the arrival of the amstor shopping center. i remember everything as if it happened literally yesterday. the first is a very large amount of smoke. scream streak a lot of broken glass, there was brocade, and this product, this chemistry, it once burned, it had a very unpleasant smell, well, that is , our guys, we immediately turned on the devices, because it was very difficult to do without devices. ivan recalls, the ceilings were falling, people begged for help, then there were no people indifferent to someone else's grief at the place of arrival. civilians then helped, they were the first there were some boys, ordinary citizens of the house of our arrival. because it is still time until we got there, and they already started taking out who

could get anyone, when it was already very hot in the premises of amstor, then we already in special protective clothing, equipment, in special protective devices, went there, there to rescue people, that day several rescuers were also injured, our hero says. unfortunately, we had two, two people were injured at that time, one was the head of the guard, i don't remember which... unit , a floor slab fell on him and there were very serious injuries, in particular the pelvis, and the other guy, he is from this regiment , but unfortunately, he is not on day duty today, this the front part of amstor, they went in, they brought out one woman, and the second one had a plate lying on her, on the lower part of the woman, she shouted: help, save, and this boy came, he began to pull her out, he could not understand his words strength, his, he thought that he would under... reach that slab under his own power, but he tried, well, it turned out that

the ligaments on this firefighter's back were torn, and then he was given medical assistance, but the woman , unfortunately, we could not save because as soon as his rescuer pulled that boy out of there, another slab fell and unfortunately the person died, ivan melikhovets says, every rescuer is capable of mastering it. his emotions and fear, but he admits, still passing by the place where amstor used to be, he has the same question. i don't understand who, or even what, i don't fear that word, it has to be, so that there is peace in a peaceful city, in a peaceful place, where most of the people of kremenchug and other visitors to the city spend their leisure time, where there are no soldiers at all, a rocket flies there, russian the rocket took the lives of 22 people, visitors and employees of amstor.

a memorial to the dead is being erected near the impact site. from kremenchuk for the espresso tv channel. night memory of the dead from that enemy attack. and thanks to those who risked their lives to save people. and, well, we move on, reminding you that this is a big ether, and now about events outside ukraine in a review from yuri. let's listen and see. one of the leaders of the french far-right national union party, headed by marine le pen, declared his readiness to provide military support to ukraine. jordan bordela said this in an interview with the financial times. according to him, if his political force wins the early parliamentary elections, he and his colleagues will continue to provide aid to ukraine, but at the same time, the far-right politician is high. requirement: military support of kyiv should not lead to escalation of tension in relations with moscow. the first round

of elections in france will take place this sunday. in the russian war in ukraine, hungary does not support either side, but at the same time official budapest calls for a peaceful settlement as soon as possible. this was stated by the head of the hungarian government, viktor orbán, after a meeting with french president emmanuel macron in paris. according to him, the leadership of hungary is advocating for peace and at the same time it is not working. to ukraine, nor to russia. it is also worth emphasizing that from july 1 , budapest will take over the presidency of the council of the european union, so the hungarian leadership will be able to influence decision-making in the eu to some extent. nato does not object to eu financing of construction defense lines on the borders of european countries with russia and belarus. the secretary general of the alliance, jensa stoltenberg, said this today. this is how he commented on the request from poland and the baltic countries to create such a dreamy redoubt. according to the secretary general of nato , the alliance has been investing in strengthening

the defense capabilities of these countries for decades. at the same time , it is they who have the right to decide for themselves in which directions they will use the money received from brussels. his activities threatened the lives of americans and their allies. he said this during the briefing official representative of the us state department, matthew miller. this is how he commented on the release from prison of wikileaks founder julian assange. according to the words. a representative of the american diplomatic service, the actions for which mr. odious journalist was accused put the lives of american partners, allies and diplomats, especially those who worked in dangerous places, at risk. like afghanistan and iraq. coup attempt in bolivia is south america, on the eve of dinner , the military under the leadership of general juan jose zunigue tried to break into the territory in front of the presidential palace with the help of an armored personnel carrier. riots in la paz square lasted for about three hours. at that time, the president was in the middle of

the palace. he also addressed the nation, appointed a new army command, which called on the military to leave. square, the soldiers executed the order of the rebellious general suniga and arrested him, now he may face up to 20 years behind bars. pre-election debates in the usa will be the first time in the history of the country that the current president will compete in a verbal duel country's joe biden and the 45th owner of the white house , donald trump. the debate will last 90 minutes. the participants will take turns speaking, while one of them is speaking, the microphone of the other will be muted. biden after. got the right to choose a place on the platform, donald trump got the right to speak last. the debates will begin at 4:00 a.m. kyiv time, the espresso tv channel will broadcast them live. at least two people died and about 50 were injured in various degrees of severity in a crash on a russian highway. state at least ten victims

are assessed by doctors as serious. this happened as a result of a passenger train derailment in the republic. terrorists in the north of the country. it is known that the accident occurred with a train traveling along the vorkuta-novorossiysk route. at the moment, the exact cause of the accident is unknown, local emergency workers assume that it could have happened due to the washing of the track by ground water. ambassadors of friendship between the chinese and american peoples for the first time in the last 20 years, china sent two pandas to the united states. bears as part of the so-called panda diplomacy will host the san diego zoo in california. this was agreed back in february this year, according to experts, the sending of pandas to the united states of america indicates some improvement in sino-american diplomatic relations. during the first few months , the furry animals will be in quarantine , and they will be shown to the visitors of the zoo soon.

since the pant san diego zoo will not be shown soon, i think it is possible. and we will still manage to see them someday in san diego, of course, after all, you always have to hope for the best and that you are in san diego look at pand, well, while we are watching what is happening and discussing these news with our guests, oleg pasternak is with us, a political scientist, mr. oleg, i congratulate you, good day, well, today is the main news that should be explained and clarified, because when it comes to the main news - it's a security agreement signed in brussels between. ukraine and the european union, and you know, already many viewers and readers, when they hear the security agreement, start laughing like this, you have it with whom, with trinidad and tobago or with the coral islands of the marshall islands, well as if it is not important, as if these are some countries that have little influence and there are already so many of these safe ones, but the war continues, nothing

changes, and i can also understand the people, because people want real actions and real consequences, if in ... there are some agreements, here is this agreement that was signed today, and what should we expect from it, because it is an obligation not only of the european union, which is important in this security, it is bilateral, but also an obligation of ukraine, either please, look, yes, there really is such skepticism during the analysis there are similar agreements, it's true, it seems that for 2022-24, ukrainians really got used to steady, stable. at least with various interruptions and sinusoidal military aid, but nevertheless all these agreements are formalized on paper. the fact that once upon a time the usa, germany, and france helped ukraine in the 22nd and 23rd years, they did it out of consideration, as an act of their good will, there was no document that would provide for such a thing, therefore the formalization of these

things for the future , is probably completely justified from the point of view of logic and ... this stable framework, yes, i think that our viewers who understand a little about the intricacies of legal mechanisms can criticize the ratification of some agreements, it would be desirable, it would be ideal, to really ratify it by the national parliaments, this would keep one hundred percent confidence that this agreement will not be changed, adjusted, canceled, but nevertheless, this did not happen and... due to various reasons, the second point, the mechanisms of the so -called security guarantees, which bankova told us about, have nothing to do with the essence of these agreements, these agreements are not about bezperk. guarantees, a agreement on security obligations, and you very correctly pointed out, including ukraine before the signatories, for example, that, for example,

regarding the rule of law, regarding a stable anti-corruption policy, regarding ensuring the selection of judges there, etc., etc., etc., etc. well, the fulfillment of ukrainian obligations will only speed up european integration, and now the most important moment, returning to today's agreement with the european union, the european union is not a defense or security community, it is an economic community, and with such an agreement the european union subjectivized not only as an economic union, there is a free market, a common market, it raises a little question about the new geopolitical reality, in which the european union sees itself from a common point of view. of defense policy, look at the conversations that are currently going on in the european environment, they are really talking about joint, separate european troops, yes, that is, even in such

conditions, the european union wants to play an active role, well, let's be honest, it would not be possible without of the personal will of ursela fondern and charles michel, who in principle are, well, probably one of the most... pro-ukrainian politicians in the modern world, this is without, you know, without too much modesty, i will emphasize, this is a fact, and it is very nice and cool that ursula funderlajen has a chance to get a second term, but it will be a decision of the european parliament, i hope , she will pass it quickly and confidently victoriously for herself, by the way, here is what i am afraid to make a mistake here, but i am that kaia kalas can be... the appointed prime minister of estonia can be appointed to the euro in the european union for the position of chief

diplomat, as far as i understand, we are talking about this, this shows that this is, i will remind you, that this is a politician whose grandparents were deported to siberia when stalin, well , actually took over the baltic countries, in particular estonia, well, remember, when the second world war actually began, and it happened. this annexation is, let's say, a fascination, and kayo kalas is called, well, an absolutely anti-russian, anti-moscow, anti-post-soviet politician, and it is very important that she can get such an important position, that in general, talking about new new people in positions, we now say not only about the european union, let's say, but also about mark rutte in office, the fact that he will head the north atlantic alliance, chiti. indicates that, well, plus this story with the fact that poland and the baltic countries will build such a huge wall between their countries and the fact that belarus is russia

now and for now, but is there a candle to the fact that europe has finally decided that there is russia, understood and decided on its future policy, on russia, well, until something changes radically in russia, everything... do you think this is good news, in fact, kaos positions none of us doubts, and in her special role for the defense support of ukraine, this is a good appointment, as well as mark rüte, although all these two candidates, by the way, had a difficult time passing through european institutions and the approval of some states, let's honestly admit , there are still states within the european union that... doubt the need for such a radicalization of the anti-russian faction, one cannot say anti-russian, but restraint of russia and active opposition to the activities

of the russian federation, by the way, played a role here there are many russian influence operations in europe, and nuclear rhetoric, including from medvedev and other war criminals of the russian federation, and many other things. i would also focus on some other personalities, antonio costa, who is being considered for the position of the chairman of the european council, he is a former portuguese prime minister, he is also a person with a high background, on the one hand , there are no special reservations of a personal nature in relation to ukraine. he follows the general line, the same very it is important for us, i think our viewers will understand, the position of the european commissioner for enlargement, with this official ukraine will work without... on average after june 25, when the intergovernmental conference was held, and well, we can congratulate and emphasize once again that the negotiation , the negotiation process

for all 35 chapters. will be opened within the next six months, well, in particular, in january , the main, main fundamental cluster will be opened regarding the basic principles of the european union, including the rule of law, but this does not mean that ukraine will not must do its job, of course, you understand, you can appoint pro-ukrainian people as heads of european institutions as much as you like, but if ukraine will... show, for example, a low pace of reforms, a low level of implementation of european legislation, these are all here, for example, as a law about the bureau of economic security, it's just that it's such an eloquent example, yes, if we show examples of this flexible, maneuverable policy, somewhere there we implement the european standard, and somewhere there super we contradict, we hide some norms that can

be used. such a process will harm ukraine, and then neither kaya kalas nor mark rutte will be able to do the work for ukraine that we should do. you know, it’s like mykola vasiliovych gogol, after all , genetically, he’s not russian by any means, he’s a ukrainian author who just lived in the empire, well, he wrote in russian, but there are very good words in his proofreader, well, only a ukrainian could make fun of and sweep eyes like that negative features of russia, which, unfortunately, are also present in ukraine, now that... this one the mayor says that when i ask the inspector why the church was not built, you will say that we started to build, but it burned down, and god forbid, someone slaps so that it does not start, well, it happens the same way here, that when the inspector arrives, we say, well , say that we started building something there, and it burned down, just don't say that we didn't start it, well, it doesn't work, it works until the time changes, and then it stops working and it's fine , that there are currently some processes, but again there is a process regarding mykola tyshchenko now we see, but this question is more, well, i

think there are many aspects here. so far it is more just certain moral norms and criminal norms have already been passed by people from mykola tyshchenko's entourage, but on the other hand we see a person who, who was called the curator of a large construction, went abroad, phones are cleaned, she is in austria, says: i will return , how did he leave, well, it’s more important, and he just sees it, and it’s, unfortunately, unfortunately, these things need to be changed, i don’t know, we have time left, because i still have, well, at least two questions, two two questions so exactly first... on the european union, one thing, then i will talk about donald trump and biden, they are planning a debate there, it will be very interesting to hear your opinion, but already and now hungary will soon preside over the european council in the second half of 24- th year, and as his slogan , orbán chose words that he pronounces only slightly differently, he paraphrased the words of his favorite donald trump, make europe great again, well, donald trump says the same thing, make us great. let

's make europe great again, and what opportunities and risks are there for ukraine during the hungarian presidency, orban clearly said that he is neither for ukraine nor for russia in this, as he says, conflict, please, well, let's remind you that orban took a very critical pro-russian position in 22-23 , i.e. list, let's take a list of these statements of orban in relation to ukraine, to the essence of the russian-ukrainian war, until you remember. to what extent orban in december at the ukraine eu summit put sticks in the wheels and scholz and other heads of european states had to somehow sort it out and now when literally today, orban himself at the eu summit approaches the ukrainian president, shakes his hand, they are discussing something that has broken the ice, in ukrainian-hungarian relations, the ice has been restored. the compromise

i will reach is very important. was during the appointment of ryuta, by the way, hungary also spoke against it, and here is a compromise in relation to ukraine, and hungary does not block european integration aspirations, euro-atlantic intentions of ukraine and further ukraine-nato cooperation, and for that , it does not directly participate in the actions nato in relation to ukraine, compromise, which would have been possible before has happened just now, and i'm positive about it. actually, some rhetoric from the hungarian side has decreased and, well, first of all, orbán shared the results of the european elections, he lost two mandates from fidesz in the european elections, one way or another , the party of the goat is now gaining an active leadership position there, this is the party, by the way, of a former member of fidesz, peter magyar, which demonstrates quite powerful.
