arrays of grain, large volumes - this means that equipment and logistics must be involved and thought out. that is, this robbery takes place at the state level, and not just by individual looters who took the carpet . for example, thank you very much for joining our broadcast. of the economy was a participant in the marathon which we continue the only news together we will strongly support it is good dear viewers my name is maria klyuk i remind you that we have a joint broadcast tv channels direct and espresso today we are working for you two hours until one in the morning so please join us watch us and we will keep you informed and of course sum up today's results and today was just as busy as yesterday, especially in the evening the air alert was announced almost all over the territory of ukraine, many russian

missiles flew at us, and unfortunately, some of them reached their goal. infrastructure, the chairman of the board of ukrzaliznytsia , oleksandr kamyshyn, has already reported that there are no victims among the track workers. the mayor of mykolaiv also reported that there is information about explosions in the city and about a rocket attack near brovary , according to the information of the mayor of brovary, igor sapozhka, the ppu system worked successfully there and there are no victims. this is the situation as of now er, dear viewers, who in the region in the city has an air alarm signal, please do not ignore it, go to cover and wait there until the end of the siren well, just now, we are adding to the air of our first guest oleksiy harnyan, professor, political scientist, who is a member of the lyansk academy, the

scientific director of the foundation, democratic initiatives, mr. professor, good evening, how do you hear? glory to ukraine , glory to the heroes, according to your opinion. so the russians are in a hurry to make it to may 9 to draw some kind of conditional victory and show something. um, to russian citizens, that's why, for the second day in a row, yesterday, many russian missiles were launched on ukrainian territory, and today we can see how they are trying to destroy our to beat the infrastructure along the railway with a fuel facility and so on, according to your opinion, the pace is exactly until may 9th, they are driving their military like this, well, look, by may 9th, they need to get some kind of symbolic victory, although you know, with this and that information blockade in to whom the

ukrainian society owes its life to be can't say now, and we have already won, we have warned the attack of the ukrainian cannibals on the people of donbas, oh well, he is this and he can tell these tales in reality and now, and a large part of the russian population this will be believed, but it is clear that he would like to get something... well, i think that the most likely thing for him now is an attempt to establish... we understand the situation is very difficult military and well, it is difficult to predict how all this will happen to our defenders, it is very, very not easy, but it looks like that, let's say again, in quotation marks , he will definitely not succeed in liberating the whole of donbas until may 9, that

is, it must be said here that our defenders in mariupol they pulled back large forces and this made it possible to slow down the offensive of the russians on other centers of the luhansk region that remain under our control, this is severodonetsk, rubizhne popasna, there will also be fierce battles. well, kramatorsk, too, and we know that lavrov has already backed down, he has already said that well, they say, we don't need to set it up, we don't want victory by certain dates and so on, that is, he has already backed down. -is the main thing is to cut off our supply arteries with

our western partners, because western aid is coming in very powerfully, and i think that this is the main main goal of the russian military here in these shellings, it is not to intimidate the population, namely to disrupt our arteries, well, but again, they make life difficult for us, complicate the supply, but they will not interrupt it, it is absolutely clear, and we hear from western leaders that, er, aid will continue and, by the way, sanctions will also increase. well, i think we we will talk more about this. if we talk about the ninth of may, well, here they said that putin can declare war on ukraine. well, it seems to me that war is already underway. if he declares war, he will frighten the whole of russian society. yes, because it will mean general mobilization is different, it is

easier for him to do this mobilization without declaring war, then they said that he can go for the annexation of the so-called people's republics and include them in the composition of russia, well, again, this will actually be counterproductive for russia itself and because now she has, even though it is a propaganda slogan of liberation yes and now if he makes an annex well, it will be a territorial nexia yes in europe and this is another or greater complication a-a international positions of e-e russia that is, it is actually counterproductive for e- russia, but we know that putin chooses exactly these scenarios, which meetings, logically, he should not do this because it is a loss for russia, but we have seen how putin chooses these

losing scenarios for russia itself. but still, it seems to me that this will not happen, i think that they there they will announce something about the capture of mariupol, even if they don't take it from avstal, something like that, well, it's purely propaganda in may, and the institute of national memory announced that on may 8-9, we in ukraine will celebrate the day of remembrance and reconciliation, and they indicated what the slogan would be also follow these days, nazism was defeated, we will also defeat racism. and in general, this war seems to me to bring a lot of new terms, and in the ukrainian language, racism is what the orcs call the russian army. how do you perceive that? these are the concepts that appear. i think

it's correct, let's clarify again, let's always clarify with this may 8^9 - it's uh, if it's a confusion , because it's called, who do we celebrate the holiday with? may 9 and we celebrate it together with europe. with all of may 9, stalin made a separate day in the soviet union as the day of victory in the great patriotic war. so we have now clearly defined it. what kind of a small patriotic war is this for ukraine? so because we were between two totalitarianisms and ukrainians. well, they fought in and in those armies and in those armies and in the upa, which fought against both totalitarianisms. therefore, there is now a clear definition of may 9 - it is a victory over nazism over nazism. and

that is why we leave it precisely so that russia could not appropriate this appropriate this victory, you know, for many years because there in the 14th year, i was a poisoner in israel at this memorial, and the tour guide there was israeli, she said the russians liberated the aushvi, it was the russians that liberated the world. there are belarusians, other peoples, then she told me , sorry, yes, that's why we don't give russia ownership. so what happened was that the republics that suffered the most were ukraine and belarus. and that's exactly why ukraine and belarus were officially set on fire; moreover, we became e- we are the founding states, we are the founding state of the united nations, unlike

the russian federation, which appeared in the united nations today 191 years ago, that's how it is now officially formulated on may 8 and 9, and they just changed the institution of national memory a little if gas, well, this is an unofficial slogan, it is not, uh , fixed at the state level, but they say that it is worth using, that is, since 2014 , we have had the slogan may 9, we won, we will win, so since 2014, and now we add that we have defeated fascism, we will defeat schism yes, that is, i think that this is the right placement of accents, mr. oleksiy, you already mentioned the sanctions on the next sixth package, which can be introduced, and

everyone is waiting for an embargo on the supply of oil, and there is information that, so far, such an agreement has not been reached in the european union there may be several which countries block this decision yes please will or will we not use which hashtag is betrayal or victory victory good means it will become known finally on monday the minister of foreign affairs will meet today ursula vanderlyan spoke and made a statement and this statement and that on western channels here i am specially watched before this program. it goes like breakings, yes, that is, the fundamental hot hot on the blame, she says we will introduce these sanctions and by the end of this year we will stop the import of russian oil, but here

the situation is really not easy because there are two countries that are so dependent on oil, and this is hungary in russian and this is slovakia, which by the way helps us a lot. oil rates, the sea, that's why the situation for them is a little more complicated, so now we are talking about the fact that there will be an exception for these two countries, that is, they have an exception for a certain period from a-a joining these sanctions , that is, such a decision is emerging that the oil itself there will be a park, but it means two countries. now they will be an exception and they will have a kind of transitional period. i would like to draw attention to one more point of international politics

. are commenting that the prime minister of india is currently in europe, and we know that russia wants to circumvent these sanctions precisely at the expense of india, because india is a large trading partner and it can do a lot, well, it will not replace the west. but nevertheless , they even agreed that in there will be er, the calculation is in rubles and rupees, yes, that is, they are bypassing these western sanctions, which means that today the prime minister has already met, er, modi of india and president macron, which means that president macron will also explain to modi what to do. join the suduction. and we will supply you with anatomy our french weapons, yes, and this is very important. france is now the second exporter of arms to india, whether through russia. india seeks to

diversify its arms exports. and france has just failed to deliver submarines to australia, and in fact, we will supply dzidzio with soap . submarines, tanks, that means there are mirages, helicopters, there is no network, it’s uh, planes, that is, uh, now india will propose steps to distance it from russia, moreover. now there is an idea to invite india through prime minister modi to a meeting of the great seven, that is, india is not a member of the big seven, but they want to invite it and precisely in order to work with them so that they do not help the russians to circumvent the sanctions, so in reality, a lot is being done, a lot is being done on other fronts, and where are the french weapons to us?

also ah, that's why the work is going on and the successes are also great , again, well, if it had all been done before , but well, they say that it's better late than never , and the most important thing is that friends know each other in trouble and we see who helps us now, even germany now she has revised her policy on israel, she finally started to mean something, she started to think, they took part in this meeting at rammstein on the base, yes , that is, they will supply us with something, well , it will not be a symbolic plan of weapons, but from a symbolic point of view, of course, we are very good here played along with lavrov, as they say that a fool is on his mind, so russian propagandists are on their tongue, and they

say that, after which the whole world grabs its head and says violence, and they grabbed their heads in israel, the jewish lobby grabbed their heads - there is one of the main rabbis of russia, because there are several of them because lavrov really said something like that, that this is, well, podography , again, you know, i think all these ridiculous articles by russian propagandists about the deo- ukrainization of ukraine, i gave my students the task of reading this article. i think these articles should will then be read in ukrainian schools so that they can see what russia is, what russian propaganda is, and what it is to solve, mr. oleksiivna , let's talk about european countries, about france, you mentioned germany, about hungary, let's talk yesterday for the first time a missile

attack was carried out on the transcarpathian region at the beginning of the war and in hungary they reacted and said that they had not changed their position and were only convinced of the correctness of their decision, hmm, not to allow the transit of weapons to ukraine through their territory we see that the position, if the position of germany during the war has changed, the position of hungary remains as it was, and maybe even becomes tougher. well , of course, orbán's position. in general , all his pro-russian statements are outrageous, but we must understand that diplomacy is diplomacy here too you need to act, you know, not according to the principle, you're a fool, so how about trying to turn enemies into neutrals and neutrals into friends, that's why you know when today , today, yesterday, the day before yesterday means one of our

high-ranking officials means said that hungary knew about putin's plans and generally wanted to detach a part of ukrainian territory, well, i'm sorry, well, to put it mildly, well, there's no need for such statements, you understand, because well, first of all, i think that there was no such thing, i don't think that putin shared this information with us from orba, yes, and secondly, i think that evidence is needed, yes. and where is this evidence, and therefore this statement. it is only used a-a only used er-e in hungary by the same morbin in order to sell it to his voters, you see what ukrainians are about we spread about good things, and that's why i think that these things should be commented on by those who are

authorized to do so, that is, well, danilov made this statement . we remember how vyrishchuk made a statement about moldova , what brought it to moldova. well, you have your own the sphere that needs to be dealt with also means stirred up, well , what is said about whether it is a separate topic at all , because there is even president zelenskyi’s letter on this topic, where he clearly defined who should from whom should comment officially on this policy. adopted by the european union, their hungary and nato, their hungary adheres to these sanctions, yes, they do not want more, yes, and that is why we see this, this is another second moment, officially, hungary provides us with a lot

of humanitarian aid, and here i absolutely must say that many hungarians, uh, civil society, the church they don't give us much help either, and they help us a lot. well, i'm not saying that i think that in this situation we need to emphasize our cucumbers from transcarpathia who fight for ukraine and who give their lives for there are many examples of ukraine and such hungarians since 2014 and they exist even now, that is, it seems to me that once again let's give diplomacy to diplomats. orbán is very well, i will not use words. for orbán , it means that it should not be done through us, but should it be done through the western allies, and they have more leverage for this, and at the same time we have

to say that you are the hungarians who help us and ordinary citizens and public organizations and the church and even state structures that are engaged in humanitarian work. yes, we thank them. well, i wanted more from the official government of hungary, but once again. well, let's go here . there is already such an international conversation. the ministry of defense of finland reported that a russian helicopter violated the airspace of the country. this is the second such incident this year. the first was on april 8. it is russia. it is so intimidating, well, obviously what is trying to intimidate or what? and it could also be uh and will these intimidations affect finland, which , according to rumors in the media, can apply to join nato as early as next week. the

answer is definitely not going to affect it, but maybe they are intimidating. well, what is this helicopter there? for maybe he is intimidated maybe he really flew, you know with this russian technique with precision yes uh-uh everything can be expected but for russia it is inherent this system of provocations they were before the war they are now very rich sweden and uh and great britain and recently there was a scandal there on some russian pro-landist channel means they showed how ireland was destroyed as a result of russia's nuclear attack, and ireland was a neutral country for a minute, so that's what i'm saying. the russians, the russians, in fact, since 2014

, they turned the world against themselves, it was a counterproductive game. but putin i expected to come out of it as a winner, once again fooling the brains. well, for western politicians in their desire to have a dialogue of peace and stability after february 24, what russia is creating is no longer possible. hide that's why i'm saying once again that this is counterproductive for russia itself, but this process has been launched, we don't know how it will end, yes, i am always very careful about these statements about the collapse of russia and the like despite all the unrest that exists , despite everything that is happening in our country , the destruction of the economy by human cuttings.

unfortunately, it is absolutely obvious that ukraine will go up and russia will go down. geopolitical trends are now very clear, and even if there are individual successes russians are at the front, but it still won't change the overall picture. ukraine continues its defense, we have the support of the world, this support is growing, and the isolation of russia is spreading and only increasing. this is what you said in a geometric progression . garania, professor of political science at the kyiv-mohyla academy , scientific director of the democratic initiatives foundation, was in touch with us. well, before we invite our next guest to the broadcast, dear viewers, i want to provide some information. the

united states continues to deliver howitzers to ukraine. at present, more than 90% of the planned quantity has already been delivered. in response, he noted that the issue of transparency and efficiency in the delivery of international defense aid to ukraine is very important for the united states , and actually, as i promised , we are removing vladyslav farafonov, an americanist political scientist, from the air analytics interview from ukraine by vladyslav e evening . good, how do you hear? american equipment, not only american and european, is actively coming to us, and our military says that in two weeks the situation can change fundamentally on the battlefield, in your opinion, this the process of this machine

of pressure on russia and the machine of pressure to support ukraine, which has been launched, it will not stop, it will not slow down its pace, it will not be so that we are already winning and we already have successes both at the front and in the diplomatic diplomatic sphere i have mind the introduction of sanctions against russia, and when the world sees it, they will think, well, ukraine is coping, can they be relaxed a little, or will this happen suddenly? and concrete aid to ukraine. it seems to me that the sanctions that were introduced are serious in the domain of solutions and , in fact, it was not for nothing that the ukrainian authorities were talking two months before the invasion about the fact that we want to understand whether that package of

sanctions was prepared, that it was really introduced, and maybe it was not fully prepared, yes, because you, after all, it was prepared in the event of an invasion, yes , then it actually turned out that quite serious things were discussed and we can see, for example , today's decision on the decision of the european union. yes, in fact, in principle, the sanctions are quite global each time. er, well, such significant warnings. in principle, for us, the same applies to specific support, in particular, its er, hmmm, and the military, it’s the same here. in principle, if we take, for example, the american direction, then in fact the law on e-e is already this year land-lease yes, which is similar to the one that was , er, many years ago, it was not even signed by the president of the bayder. that is, it is

actually, yes, those agreements that took place earlier, so in this sense, we also expect an increase in aid and er- even here the question is not in the amount, but in the fact that this is a different type of aid. yes, that is, let's say no. hm, it's not what we will have to pay back. yes. that is, it is not for what kind of loans. yes, and so on. that is, it is actually specific military aid . and it was n't even really loaded yet. let's say it's loaded in principle. yes , this too must be understood, so i, on the contrary, expect an increase in concrete aid in this sense. within the framework of the program, but not climbing, we will already see and quite and quite significant, sir. and what do you think ? how important is the victory of ukraine in this war for president biden, and i say this in

the context of the upcoming elections in america, although absolutely right, in november, the midterm elections where biden's party members will compete with actually for that is to keep the majority in both houses of the congress eh and today it is still too early to say whether they will be able to do it, but that too. which approves the defense budget, for example, which appoints ambassadors. by the way, that is also very important to us, yes, and in fact, the primaries for those vacant seats in the senate, yes, they started just yesterday, and there are already certain results. they are completely different there for individual states, of course. but nevertheless, in reality , there is quite a

lot at stake for the democrats and for biden, and in principle, if um , that's what 's going on here. understand that in fact , a lot depends on the actions of the administration and the determination and speed of the actions of the congress, so they expect their legislators and government officials to also help ukraine quickly and efficiently in this sense, again, it is extremely important for biden to show the speeches are actually not only about the fact that there is actually a struggle between the democratic and authoritarian world, but also concretely show the results of his actions, and that in fact he is ready to do much more than just speak publicly

about what we
