your donations brings our victory closer. for now, that's all the news i have as of this hour. see you at 15, to learn more interesting and relevant information, stay tuned to our espresso site. tv, as well as in our social networks, take care, see you soon. the armed forces of ukraine have already received six american f-16 fighter jets, which were provided by the netherlands, the times writes. glory to ukraine, dear tv viewers, what's up, the espresso tv channel will inform you about

all the most important events on an extremely rich information day. of course, we will involve the most informed experts in the spresso studio, marta ulyarnyk, antin borkovskiy, and we are adding dmytro zhmail, co-founder and executive director. ukrainian center for security and cooperation. mr. dmitry, congratulations. good day, i greet you. glory to ukraine. glory to the heroes, let's go back to the story with six f-16 planes. was delivered to ukraine from the netherlands and a few more will soon arrive from denmark, writes the times. yes, we will not talk about the plans for the next year, well, the air forces of the armed forces of ukraine currently do not comment on this information, but in any case, this is not the first signal about the appearance of those beautiful aircraft in our skies. you have a word. so. now globally we have to understand that in addition to the war on on the battlefield, in addition to the war in the air, there is a huge

information war. as for commenting on the f-16, we may not see official statements from either the general staff or the air force command, and only over time will ukrainians learn about the use of this weapon on the battlefield. i will give a specific example that happened probably a year ago, when we were expecting the patriots, and then we were able to shoot down more modern russian aeroballistic targets. which until then the ukrainian air defense system could not overcome, then for a very long time they demanded from the first officials of the state statements about whether or not ukraine received patriots, there was such enormous public pressure that eventually the command admitted the fact that we received these weapons, but this whole supply of western weapons is kept secret because any such information , it is carefully studied by the enemy and its plans for further strikes on... the territory of ukraine are being adjusted accordingly, so i would call on ukrainian society and ukrainian media people somewhere not

to move, to move this topic, we will definitely find out everything, on everything is needed time, because it can have a concrete effect on the situation on the battlefield. if we talk about my personal opinion, then i think that the first cars are coming to us, we know that during the summer we receive a small number of these cars, because the 85 f16s that were promised to us, they are stretched in time, where the deadline is. 2028 is the year, but we are limited due to the small number, well, of these machines that we currently receive, we will most likely use them point by point, a big challenge for us is also the preservation of these machines, because the enemy will hunt them, but together with it's not worth it and to expect that f16, especially in such numbers, will become some kind of critical panacea on the battlefield, so they will help us, we will be able to deliver point strikes, but at this moment in time to say that they will ... break the course of the war on the battlefield, well as, unfortunately, it is not possible. mr. dmitry, but

this is not only about units, it is also about capabilities, due to the lack of trained personnel, ukraine will be able to use no more than 10 f-16 fighters, at least that is what the new york times writes about, and we understand that each fighter must have two are attached pilots, that is, we count 20 pilots, ukraine has not prepared more at the moment, and we understand that here the question is not only for partners, but also for... us, whether we are sufficiently trying to bring the number of pilots up to the number of fighters that we will be given, as you generally estimate, 10 aircraft this year, well, in the near future, as i understand it, it is said, many, few, well, in addition to trained pilots for one machine, we still need to train 10 technicians who will actually service the aircraft-16 , in my opinion, the information you are commenting on is still mine personally. the opinion does not correspond to the truth, because the training of pilots for f-16 aircraft, it was also carried out at the base of the air component

of the us national guard in the state of arizona, and eight pilots have already graduated there, as far as i remember, and a graduation is also being prepared for the fall 10 pilots have been trained by great britain, extensive training is underway in romania, where approximately 50 ukrainian pilots are to be trained over the course of months, who are to master f-16 machines, so ... i would still believe that we will have fewer aircraft than more trained pilots who can perform combat missions on these machines. yes, thank you, mr. dmytro, and we would also like to ask you to comment on the current situation at the front, the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi said in an interview with french media that the protection of pokrovsk is now the enemy's priority goal, i quote. after all, kostyantynivka is also there and they are aiming at turetsk, and there are plans. as for sloviansk, but all these are plans, the biggest the number of personnel and the largest number of weapons and cabs, everything they have,

they concentrate on the protection direction. what is happening now in the direction of pokrovsk and, in general, what goals does the enemy want to achieve by advancing in the direction of this settlement. the russians, after they littered with corpses and breached the avdiyivsky okryp district, entered certain operational areas, so they have an advance there, this... we are talking about short distances, but they still have this creeping offensive. they actively apply guided aerial bombs, because the quality of their artillery is falling, so they are trying to increase the production of kab and actively use them. more than a third, if we say simply, well, last day there were 156 combat clashes, then more than a third of them occurred precisely in the pokrovsk directions, one of the first such tasks was to cut the pokrovsk kostyantynivka highway in the vozdvizhenka area in order to significantly complicate the logistics of our troops, they advanced somewhat to the west of the village of progress, the turkish

direction is also hot, where they were able to a few weeks ago transfer the reserves, well, somewhere from 5 to 10 thousand, which they... threw into battle, so the situation is extremely difficult, other directions where they are activated, most likely, it is in order to pull back our reserves and to disperse our line defense, the russians ' strategic goal is the complete occupation of donetsk and luhansk regions, they are not giving up on it, 1,370 incapacitated occupiers, killed and wounded over the past day, they are not going to stop, they need to make global progress as much as possible during the summer, so that later in the fall - winter... to strengthen, build fortifications, those we saw in the south, in particular the so-called infamous surovikin line, during the summer, they will try to squeeze out everything possible in their power, the losses they can so far replenish in smaller quantities than we destroy them, but they lead work on recruiting, mobilization on the territory of the russian federation and hire mercenaries all over the world, but the pace of our

destruction exceeds the pace of their recovery, and russia is already seriously thinking about conducting new mobilization events, events sometime from the fall, well, from the fall and winter of this year mr. dmytro, not very pleasant news is coming to us from the united states. the national defense strategy commission said in its meeting that if a global war breaks out, the chances are we'll lose it, we'll lose it, meaning the united states and its allies, america meaning, and that's really the information that makes us to think, because experts. it is said that china has already overtaken the united states in many military fields or areas that can be used for military purposes, and they assess the partnership between russia, china, the dprk and iran as an established fact and build a defense strategy around this, experts say, and call on the americans to actually join the army recruiting, well

, you know, this is a serious statement, we cannot understate it , it's about the fact that there could be... a global conflict, and unfortunately, the united states underestimated the tandem of russia, china, north korea and iran, and now we need to do something about it at an accelerated pace, how do you assess this situation in general, or do you think that we may really be on the brink of a big war, because it was said that there might be a year or two to prepare, what they say, it's all possible, of course, because... russia opened pandora's box by starting a full-scale invasion of ukraine, and in fact, to a large extent, how events will develop on the world stage will depend on how the war will be conducted in ukraine itself, there are hot spots, there is the middle east, there is taiwan, and we know that all this escalation, which from time to time breaks out, other conflicts will break out because russia is trying to show that the right of the strong, which we have not known

since the middle of the 20th century, it is once again returning to the public space, our western ... allies and on the eve of the invasion, unfortunately, made a number of mistakes, you remember those forecasts that they were optimistic about afghanistan, and that it most likely turned into such an operational evacuation, you remember the forecasts about ukraine in 72 hours, but still ukraine held out, now there is a global and plus election process in the united states of america , where most likely it will be completely to reboot the vertical of power in the event of trump's victory, that is, the western world globally faces... huge challenges, they also talk about plans, and there is already an understanding, at least, that the way the allies previously conducted campaigns, in particular in iraq, in afghanistan, so already in the event of a clash with authoritarian regimes, it will no longer be possible to fight, it will not be possible to simply deploy a base and conduct some operations, because these bases will most likely be destroyed, because the enemies have powerful and modern weapons,

therefore the danger in the world is increasing, about all these plans know, other such statements will appear. whether there will be such a conflict or whether a new outbreak of war will ignite, most likely, until the situation in ukraine is resolved in one way or another, we will not see it, because after all, the attention of the whole world is focused on our war. mr. dmytro, you mentioned that the enemy has a certain problem now with the literal hiring of new contract workers, well, in some places they even doubled the level of pay, well, on the other hand, we also live in ukraine and understand what we have. takes care of manpower of the old brigades, well, here this story was further outlined by the president of ukraine zelenskyi, but ukraine wanted... 14 new brigades, only three succeeded. well, the lack of weapons is sometimes a sign, right? i don't have information about what

weapons we lack, but if the president says it, then it is so. you have a word. yes, it's a really huge problem, because now, well, we have, roughly speaking, agreed aid packages, but, well, roughly speaking, they stand out somewhere along the line, because the western allies have their own absolutely... logic regarding risk management and conflict escalation. unfortunately, in some places, so far alone, we even see a certain regression in terms of shells, because our units do not even have time to accumulate artillery reserves and immediately, well, i will say roughly, they are shot again on the battlefield, and this ratio is one to three, one up to 5, there are still no prerequisites that we can reach at least some more or less parity conditions with the russians, we are somewhat better after the adoption of the new mobilization. of this law, the situation with mobilization and recruiting is still increasing people turn to recruiting centers, there are optimistic forecasts that if we keep the current pace, we

will be able to mobilize about 200,000 new recruits by the end of the year, of course there will be a challenge to train them, but indeed the supply of weapons remain critical for us, because our reserves, those that were, we used to a greater extent already in the first year. a full-scale invasion, so yes, there is a lot of diplomatic work to be done, in terms of making sure that the pace of supply itself is faster, because the pace of the russian offensive and the intensity of hostilities, it remains high, and the second, no less important condition is that we can operate with western weapons throughout the territory of the russian federation without any restrictions. in order to break this chessboard from which the russians are playing with us, we still need to transfer the war to... their territory, so that their line of defense is hidden not only by the russian-ukrainian border and the front lines, but so that they think about covering the entire territory of the russian federation, at least 100 km from

the russian-ukrainian border, so yes, the situation is difficult, the work continues, thanks to the heroism of our defenders, we did not see any serious breakthroughs in the front line during the summer campaign, despite the local movements of the russians, and still we are holding the defense, we just have to ... just to stand up critically and not let new ones in, not let our line fall, easy clarification, look, when we talk about the fact that we lack weapons, we lack small arms, we lack some mortars, well we very much hope for our allies, well, but we still have certain capacities of our budget and so on, well, it doesn’t matter if we can’t replenish the brigades only because of... because of the lack of weapons, look, our military-industrial complex , especially since the 22nd year, is developing, in my sincere belief, at a simply insane pace, about

200 companies produce various types of weapons and already roughly a quarter of them have some, let's say, relations with the ministry of defense, the general staff, have contracts , has on testing all these types of weapons, except moreover, our allies, who cannot, for example, provide us with any specific weapons, finance... ukrainian production of weapons, ukrainian weapons for the defense forces of ukraine, in particular, there is an eloquent example of denmark, which financed 18 sau bohdan, ours, well, i would say without exaggeration, a legendary development specifically for the defense forces of ukraine, and one of the priorities of the top military-political leadership is that if the allies cannot provide weapons, it is necessary to finance our military-industrial complex, but of course there is a question of funds, because people, who work in the field of the military industry, they can’t work without some kind of appropriate support, so these are all parallel processes, they are all ongoing, but the russians, they are more numerous, their pace is numerically, the pace of their

offensive is extremely high, i emphasize, about as i have said more than once, no country in the world, except of course the united states and china, is capable of standing up to the russian federation on its own, a lot of work is being done, but yes, the challenges are incomparably greater, which are in front of us, and you have already mentioned them. about our military industry, here it is a sin not to mention the fantastic operation on the territory of the russian federation, the military depots in the kursk region, the navy of ukraine confirmed their participation in the attack, but they did not confirm or deny the use of a modified ukrainian neptune missile, how do you assess this attack, what do you can you tell me what happened there and do you think this means that we already have our missiles? which we can use deeper into the enemy's territory and not ask the west for permission to use their weapons, so what the adaptation of missiles, i would like

to have official information to comment on, it is absolutely true that our missile program is developing, in particular the r360 missile from the neptune complex, there is work being done to modify it so that it can strike targets moving not only on the level of the water surface, but also for it to be more improved, they said that they allegedly passed, it passed tests and can already hit targets at a distance of 700 km, our other missiles are also being developed, in particular anti-aircraft missiles. rockets, in particular small rockets ranges, which are critically lacking on the line of contact, the missile program, the program for the production of our drones, this is one of the most important priorities, because we have to do from the territory of the russian federation what we did with the occupied territories of kharkiv oblast and the right bank of kherson oblast in 2022 , it is critically important for us to break the logistics of the russians, beat their logistics routes, destroy their

enterprises in the deep rear, so the effect will not be there now... but this is a long, painstaking work, done so that in the end we can speak in autumn or closer to the end of the year about the stabilization of the front line, so that the russian front will begin to feel the lack of everything it needs, from fuel, some elementary food products to specific weapons, which simply will not reach them. thank you, dmytro hmailo, co-founder and executive director of the ukrainian center for security and cooperation. we will remind you that tonight is the time for the enemy. nefnur, everything can be said about an attempt, lupa nomarev, a russian oppositionist who is, in particular, in to ukraine, a tachet was used for this. ponomeryov's condition is stable, but in addition to ponomeryov, other people are injured. well, now we're going on a short break and from now on, we'll keep you informed about the most important things. you have
