always comes to a dead end, while others, on the contrary , say that this work continues, continues, but actually not as fast as we would like. unfortunately, we cannot. to communicate with everyone, we cannot voice everyone's voice, however i would like to hear a few, actually several comments that we received today. my husband and i have a little son who is seven years old, thanks to him, i know that his dad will definitely come back and everything will be fine with him, well, although he can, sorry, he doesn't remember anymore, what is he, what is he, but we stand every morning and see, he sees dad's photos, he always says, dad, says, yes, son, it's dad, he will definitely come back to you. it is difficult, just a war with the administrations, with all the institutions that are involved and all, the answer is one: wait, believe and wait, we believe and wait, but something needs to be done, so today

of the 46th separate automobile brigade showed how to destroy the occupiers and equipment in the mariyan direction, in particular, they succeeded in destroying the so-called pride of the russians, the t-90 tank. let's see, this is a fabulous video.

glory to the armed forces of ukraine and death to the russian occupiers. friends, we conduct polls throughout our broadcast. today we ask you about the current system of government in ukraine. do you think it is effective? yes, no, everything is quite simple on youtube, if you have your own opinions, please write under this youtube video and subscribe to our pages on social networks. if you are watching us on tv, take your smartphone or phone and vote on 0800 211 381 if you think the current system of government in ukraine effective, no - 0800 211 382, ​​all calls to these numbers are free, vote, at the end of the program we will sum up the results of this vote. let's start with the tragic

news, which i already said at the beginning, this... unfortunately, during the repulse of a missile strike by the russian federation on the territory of ukraine, f-16 fighters of the armed forces of ukraine were used together with anti-aircraft missile units. during the air battle, f-16 planes shot down missiles and rockets. unfortunately, during the approach to the next target, contact with one of the aircraft was lost, as reported by the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine, it was reported that the plane crashed, the pilot died. a special commission of the ministry of defense of ukraine has been appointed to find out the causes of the accident, which works in the area where the plane fell. it is interesting that this news, that the f-16 crashed, was first reported by foreign media. the wall street journal submitted this information, it is already the general staff

of the armed forces of ukraine in pursuit. in this information, published this information, they write that colonel oleksiy mes died, this a ukrainian pilot who did an incredible job to get ukraine f-16 fighter jets, and today they said goodbye to him, you see, these are pictures of the pilot's farewell, he was posthumously awarded the rank of colonel, obviously the details of this plane crash will be a little bit... later, well and we will follow the information messages, i want to introduce today's our first guest, this is igor lapin, major of the armed forces of ukraine, special officer, people's deputy of ukraine of the eighth convocation, mr. igor, i congratulate you, thank you for being with us today, glory glory to ukraine, heroes, here we started with this tragic news about the plane crash and the

f-16 crash, the details have not yet been reported, and the air forces of the armed forces. and the general staff, but as a person who has been in contact with aviation for a long time, you definitely, well, understand that in wartime anything can happen, including with the f-16, that is, we hoped that it would be some kind of a lifeline for the armed forces of ukraine and a powerful shield, but what could happen in this situation, that is, maybe the pilots were not so bad. experienced or not enough on these machines worked out, some versions can be made public or well assumed, look, i honestly do not allow a pilot’s mistake, because at least this is no longer a young pilot who graduated from the academy yesterday, learned to fly and retrained on the f-16, so something to me , well

, let's put it this way, i don't want to catch up now, of course let them conduct an investigation, but it's more similar to me. on friendly fire, that is, on friendly fire, especially since, as far as i understand, the pilot was not even able to eject, so if we say that when entering the second circle, that they lost contact and the pilot died, that is, let's say this, if everything was fine with the pilot, he would have ejected, and if he was not able to do this, it could be, well, sorry, let's say this, this is, well, this is my guess, let the investigation show, of course, but you know what i paid attention to. of this news, it means that the united states did not ask the lock flight center about the training of ukrainian pilots, even despite the problem with the terms of training in its own training centers, and this was just reported by the representatives of the company, this is a european center lock martin pilot training in romania, which recently graduated its first batch of eight

f-16 fighter pilots and is about to begin training more, and they say they are ready to ... expand the number of pilots they can graduate in a year to more than 30 and 40 , that is, you can imagine, yes, but nevertheless our partners for some reason did not apply in this context for ukrainian pilots to study in romania, and this leads me to think that, you know, this savior stick that everyone here prayed to god for, but what even if our pilots were not there cool, no matter how cool those f-16s are, the russians are totally in the sky. the advantage, no matter what, the russians have about 400 planes flying, and ten of us want to cover, we will not cover missile attacks with ten planes, domination. we will not reach the sky with ten wings, and most importantly, the loss of a wing is compared to the fact that the loss of a pilot is completely different things,

so if we do not continue to train our pilots, there will be no new sets, then what there is a one-time promotion, or how to understand it, well, i can't yet, no i have this explanation, of course it should be the work of our diplomacy, but i emphasize once again, considering the military rank, i saw the same as you the photo... the picture, the age of this pilot, i don't think it could have been a pilot's mistake , all the more so, again, in the absence of the russian air force in the air, it is meant, that is, missiles, shaheds, well , i have something, let’s say, i want to be wrong, but i’m still thinking about friendly fire here, well, we’ll wait for the official ones the results of this investigation, i think that it must the public will be informed about it, because this is the first... the f-16 plane, which was destroyed in the sky of ukraine, and this too, or suffered a war plane crash, the reasons must obviously

still be named in some perspective. mr. mayor, let's talk about what is currently happening in kurtshchyna, and zelenskyi has already spoken, and syrskyi has spoken about the fact that we want to push back the enemy and create a buffer zone in kurtshchyna, shall we? ukrainians not only to try to create this buffer zone, but also to keep it? just right in front of yours on the air on my youtube channel lapin from ukraine, we discussed this topic with yuriy lutsenko, what conclusion did we reach? well, first of all, we have now actually added another 300 km of the front line, the question is whether we will hold this territory, that is, even i read an article in the voice of america, where they actually say that there are three possible scenarios: the first scenario - we continue the raiding war , and i emphasize that this is, in my deep

conviction, the best option. the second option, we start to dig in there, establish ourselves and add more than 300 to ourselves km of the front line, having no advantage either in personnel, in terms of numbers, neither in tanks, nor in artillery, nor in shells and not in the sky, well... well, to be honest, from the point of view of, let's say, an infantry combatant, well i would not underestimate these risks, especially as mr. general muzhenko expressed himself on this matter, i fully support him so that it does not turn out that way, you know, well, this is my interpretation of these theses, but so that it does not turn out that according to the kurdish we did not miss a very serious problem of the pokrovsky direction and our ukrainian one in general only donbas, of course, knows whether we have enough strength for this. syrian, because he knows how much we have, what, where and how much and how it is. this is another story. next, if we are entrenched, then we need to blow up

the defensive structures. listen, well, we are already on the defensive, we can say anything now. but, according to the previous reports of one of the representatives of the temporary investigative commission of the verkhovna rada, mykhailo bondar, they found embezzlement of approximately 20 billion at the defense facilities, and about 30 criminal proceedings were opened in this regard. sbu opened, and it was not yet an official report of tsk. therefore, i am very interested, we will build these defense structures for, or instead of, or at some expense, at whose expense. well, but nevertheless, okay, maybe there are options on how to build defensive structures. i emphasize once again, plus 300 km of the front line. this is a very serious problem. the question is whether we will keep these boundaries forever and ensure the safety of the citizens of kurshchyna. and they will volunteer to defend their territory, or perhaps some local bodies will be created there self-government, maybe russian oppositionists will come there with humanitarian

convoys and help the inhabitants survive during the war, or maybe the russians will simply raze that kurshchyna to the ground and along with everything else, as they usually do in our territory, having a total advantage in artillery, yes how long are we going to be there, you know, i'll say... there is also one option, for which specialists say that you need to be able to leave in time, closing the door behind you, because the russians today are from their northern, so to speak, northern that, their part from st. petersburg and so on, are pulling the troops there towards kurshchyna, and in this context the effect that we expected, well, as some said that this is one of the effects that we expect that they.. . will take the troops from the pokrovsky direction, it didn't come true, it didn't come true, that's why maneuverable war is our thing, entering a static front, i see very big risks behind this, well

... in conclusion, i recommend viewers to go to my channel, there is one more point about the reasons why the kurdish operation started, who offered it, about how they tried to shoot general syrskyi, the next one with his head in his hands, let’s say, zelenskyi, how yermak’s office planned it, and what prevented them, so i encourage your viewers to come and watch today’s stream with lutsenko, well, that’s not it less, closing the issue of the kurdish operation, how necessary or not, i don't want to diminish it, because it made very big serious points from a geopolitical point of view, all the brown lines of fear, which looked like crap and smelled like crap, those that many western politicians have drawn for themselves, all these brown lines of fear, ukraine has passed, putin's red lines, with which putin threatened the whole world,

including such a famous one. one of the serious politicians, mr. sullivan, who also talked about these red lines that cannot be crossed and so on. ukraine passed, and what did we see? we saw that the greatness of russia and the russian army was completely leveled, they cannot hold their villages, there are guevo and drochevo, sorry, these are the exact names these villages, so if they cannot keep these villages, about which... the opportunity for russia, for russia to rule the whole world, to claim to be some kind of geopolitical player number one, so these are the moments that the kurdish operation did, the rhetoric of the western partners radically changed, everyone started saying, ukrainians have the right, and they have the right to drive on leopard tanks, and they have the right to use bradleys, especially, let’s not forget, about 600 new military prisoners of war plus kadyrivites in these

stories, this is a very positive result for to replenish our exchange fund. i emphasize once again, i am with the boys, i have two best men fighting in the turkish direction, they say that everyone has to do what they have to do, the boys were given an order, they are carrying it out there, let them work, we have to hold the lines here in turkey, and in principle, there are no such people, you know, who are fringes among the soldiers, that oh, it would be better if they supported us here, why did they go there, there are no such things in the armed forces, everyone understands that this is a war, there is a plan. by the way, and regardless of surnames, by the way, i want to to say, we are all equal soldiers will carry out combat orders, and here there is only one question, the question is that these orders are correct, and not like the ones given to the defenders, to surrender your weapons, we will change you and keep you, everyone knows the result, well somewhere like this, the head of the armed forces of ukraine, serskyi, whom you mentioned, mr. major, visited the pokrovsky area

and wrote... on his resources in social networks that the most intense battles in the pokrovsky area are taking place in the eastern outskirts of grodivka, novogrodivka and mykhailivka the battles are extremely tough , the enemy throws into battle everything that can move and advance, trying to break through the defense of our troops, our fighters show courage and heroism in battles with the overwhelming forces of the enemy, - wrote at the same time, a soldier of the armed forces of ukraine yevhen ievlev with the call sign sheikh told on the espresso broadcast about the situation in the pokrovsky and turkish directions, where the enemy does not stop pressing. let's hear what he said. really no weakening of positions, or there is a reduction in the number of equipment, or there is no decrease in the number of personnel. that is, already in a month and a half or two, there are constant assaults, a constant

influx. without any pauses even for some regroupings, for some rotations and so on, that is, it cannot be said that the enemy is there, that the enemy is a shortage of staff or personnel, and i know that this is happening both in our turkish direction and in our brothers and in the pokrovsky direction, that is, the situation is really quite complicated, and the reasons for such complexity are not the only one, the geographical properties on which they counted that the enemy there he will not approach them and will not leave, to his great regret, there, well, that is exactly what to say. our local commanders there, for example, the commanders of the zvodiy, the commanders of roto, their thoughts, unfortunately, did not come true a little, and the enemy is coming in a rush, they are climbing from all sides. mr. major, what can we expect in the fall on these routes, well, in particular, on turetsky and pokrovsky, that is, putin still wants to leave.
