well, for the democrats and for biden, there is enough, and uh, in principle, if uh, hmm, here, let's say it clearly, if uh, to say that just ordinary americans are following the events, it will also be uh, it will not be an exaggeration, because they understand that in fact , a lot depends on the actions of the administration and the determination and speed of 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 in fact, his speeches are not only about the fact that there is actually a struggle between the democratic and authoritarian world, and also specifically show the results of his actions, and that in fact he is ready to do much more than just publicly talk

about what, um, we will see there due to the situation, we will still impose sanctions and so on, yes, that is, the americans are actually following this very carefully, clearly in the year of the elections, they will do a lot more, i will mix it up, but usually , in general, foreign policy is in midterm elections does not particularly play a role. but it seems to me that the focus of attention is actually on how he and russia are against ukraine and in general on biden’s actions and in particular in the context of the unprecedented economic military aid that has already been allocated by the united states or announced we will have a rather promising case when, and if we take the entire american foreign policy, this direction will be one of the key ones. well, in principle, when the actions of the democrats will actually be evaluated. and this, one way or another, actually makes the project for the elections

on the 24th, and the primer even started, it will start at the beginning of the 25th. therefore, the americans also have to wait here, and not so much. therefore, they celebrate it very carefully and will continue to do so. biden will visit the capital of ukraine, kyiv. well, because at first they categorically said no, and then blinken and the minister of defense traveled to kyiv , then nancy pilos, who is generally considered the second person after biden, i understand, after the vice president, who is kamila harris? goes on encyclosi ie high representative of the uh usa biden can visit is this something i'm kind of fantasizing you know i think it's actually becoming like the most realistic if it used to be around there at the 30% level uh yeah what's the thrashing

but again if the embassy is returning, yes , accordingly, the embassy can organize this visit. yes, you are absolutely right that uh, in principle, uh, this is what i told you about the powerful visit of the congress delegation, because it was not only at the encyclopedia, there were also heads of committees, in particular committees by the head of the committee of the house of representatives and intelligence adamshiv yes that is, they are fellow party members of biden and in fact they are by no means his political opponents, that is, they showed by their own example in fact and in particular biden in the sense that the ukrainian authorities are ready to organize a safe visit yes and so on, this is also, in principle, a very powerful signal, in fact, for the white house, in principle, i think that, again, when will this series of primaries in the united states actually end, where biden is one way or another democrats need, in principle, in order to publicly campaign for their own party members.

after that, i think that by the middle of the summer, by the end of the summer , my in fact, for two years, as a matter of principle, he was elected president, and yet, yes, when he was the vice president, he was in ukraine a lot, and again, i think that the american public and fellow party members of biden and his political opponents will uh, if not not directly to ask for this is at least uh-uh very soft, if we were to hint at the fact that during, well, that is, somewhere in the middle of a full-scale war, the undead were often in ukraine , and now we expect we, too, respectively, when you organize a visit, so i think that it becomes more it is realistic when at full capacity or at least at e let's say that at a high level the american embassy will work in kyiv and at least in

ukraine if territorially in kyiv and yesterday the people 's deputies gathered in the parliament and listened to johnson's address and the president of ukraine volodymyr zelensky spoke and the deputies voted for an appeal to the united states to recognize russia as a state sponsor of terrorism, will the united states do this or is this too drastic for them? department, that is, in principle, here let's put it this way, the question is neo political will, and the question is in e-e mechanisms and consequences, that is, the problem is that, that is, the problems for the united states, they are actually that to this list it is possible to introduce states, but as a rule there is no

such practice that these states are then actually removed from this list in one way or another, so if they read it and go to such a step, then they must have an understanding of what it is . was cyber space and so on yes they are actually let's say that at least they are thought out for their members that is i think that they actually list all uh specific in principle the scenario of the development of events so in fact i don't think that uh let's say that it will be done in the near future, but i definitely do not reject such a possibility, because again, this is quite serious, and this is not blinking. just a few weeks ago, he already spoke about this and hinted that the united states is studying this possibility, let's see how much time it will take

but again, there is a possibility of such a thing. and it will be a really important step on the part of the government . when there was a meeting in the german city of ramstein at the american military base, everyone said, in particular, the defense cities of the united states that ukraine will win, there is no doubt about it, can we consider that this phrase is actually a promise from america that they will not leave us, or else it will be on them ? will not lose in this war , they can no longer allow another scenario, i completely agree with this opinion, in fact, it seems to me that uh, this phrase is somehow an assurance, in the sense that american support will again, uh, only increase yes, and both politically, economically, and

militarily, and to a certain extent, this is not even just a belief in, let's say, the ukrainian armed forces, yes, it seems to me that it can be interpreted as actually a belief in the fact that bilateral partnerships are precisely during the war it will turn out one way or another to a much different, more uh, quality level than in reality. can review a hundred countries in bilateral relations and still recognize ukraine as basically an ally of the constitution, and this is again an even greater message of bilateral cooperation, yes, let's say, it will make support for ukraine not a theorem that will then be given to each

congress. will the next government have to prove to each other let's say they will argue, let's say who supports ukraine more and this will make support for ukraine an axiom that no one will have to prove at all, but only to see which specific spheres need improvement of these works and in which specific spheres have there already been successes, yes, that is, in fact, i think that it is, and i hope that this phrase will also lead to an even greater strengthening of bilateral cooperation. congratulations, thank you very much for joining this late time peaceful quiet night and good night vladyslav farafonov political scientist americanists her analyst interview with ukraine we are in touch friends today we talk a lot about international support because without it really in this war ukraine and you stand would be extraordinary it's difficult, nevertheless, and we didn't put up a single day without our military. without our soldiers , without the armed forces of ukraine. and of course, without

the azov citizens, a terrible situation is happening in mariupol. er, this is exactly what we will talk about with you further on. president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi had a telephone conversation with the un secretary-general antonio otelyshyn during the negotiations, the head of state sat down to help evacuate all the wounded. the press service of the president's office says, meanwhile, a group of civilians evacuated from azov steel says that in the bunkers under the metallurgical plants there are still many civilians and seriously wounded soldiers who were lucky enough to get out, now they are passing through and coming to the relatively safe zaporizhzhia and tell what 25-year-old tatyana experienced among them trotsak, who together with her husband and parents were evacuated from mariupol, then her story

was quietly inaudibly shot. thank god and i hope that there will be no shots fired here. fireworks fireworks and the maximum thunder on february 24 our morning began with an explosion whistling in the strong and they were strong and scary that we were simply breathless from these from these explosions of this year eh just a deafening explosion and eh at the family council we decided that something terrible is happening , probably we'd better go somewhere in the future well,

my mother works at the combination zustal drawing shops she says i know in our shops our abke is an administrative housing building there is a bamboo shelter at least there is water there and then already in april, these shellings became more frequent and they became even scarier, even heavier, new shells were added by the sound, we began to distinguish when an airplane arrives, when it arrives from a ship, when the anti-aircraft guns burst, here on the parachute, how some came down, first a shot, then from five to 20 seconds i'm waiting for them to explode into small parts and even additional explosions, this was also very scary. my family is four men and my mother, sasmey. well, the people started here, the poets

are four of us, but we don't fall. there will be 11 of us. 10 человек венный город good good then we will take 11 we say no please take someone with a child well we can wait we will go in the next batch let me show you and on the other hand i am extremely worried about that question because there are people left and there are wounded a soldier and a combiner passing by are turned out the day before yesterday. we saw how simple it is there, everything is burning black with black smoke. there is black terrible smoke over all the combines. god forbid, god

forbid, that these shells landed near бомбобежит the battles are bloody, but the fighters of azov are holding on, and we of course believe in them now. good evening. i would really like to start a conversation with you about what is happening in mariupol, and in particular at the azov steel plant. the

russians are really in such a hurry until may 9 at any cost to seize azovstal. that we understand that our guys are extremely strong, they are really made of steel, they hold the defense for 70 days and russian troops die in extremely large numbers trying to capture them, nevertheless, putin does not spare people, including his own, so this is all just for that to draw such a picture by may 9 the conditional victory of the capture of mariupol, of course, it is difficult to say about the specific intentions of which today, but of course the situation looks like that, really, having no other significant achievements, the russians are trying, at least in mariupol, to make it look like they will have achieved something to press for victory as much as possible to

our defenders here as well. well, what i hear from acquaintances is what i hear from uh guys who uh communicate and still have a connection with mariupol , then this activity really brings the russians terrible losses, but no one there cares or counts , that is, if the russians had not been in a hurry, they certainly would not have tried to clear the territory controlled by our troops, they would have probably just shelled there, well, provided a complete encirclement and waited there when our fighters ran out of supplies . er, an opportunity to defend but it seems that they are really in a hurry to reach some specific date well, probably until may 9, and what do you think? we talk a lot about may 9, and what can we

expect after may 9, really, it looks more like a guess now because, er, hmm, in russia, it has a difficult situation today in terms of the fact that er, the russians need to show at least some it is strange that the achievements of the soviet union started from the moment when they retreated to kyiv region and sumy region , they do not have any significant strategic achievements, that is, of course, a very powerful offensive company began in donbas, the ring around the theater of mariupol tightens, but such breakthroughs achievements the russians have here. of course, this may lead to some changes in tactics or, in general, to a possible announcement of mobilization in the federation. we have already heard statements from the spokesman of putin piskov

that these are the months of may, this environment does not exist, and you know, the more russians deny it unfortunately, so far we have it so that it always leads to the complete opposite, that is, such a tactic of public lies, even on obvious things, which they themselves then use, mr. vasyl, yesterday the people's deputies gathered and actually voted they expanded the powers of the taroborona fighters so that they can also perform tasks in the east of ukraine. however, they explained to me that in principle they were happening so long ago and that this was only the formalization of this. i understand correctly and why was it necessary to vote for this document , this is quite a technical change, but it was, well, from a legal point of view, a weighty one, in particular , the project that roman kostenko practiced as a result and received by other deputies, in particular , members of the defense security and development committee.

i just tested the fact that in the first edition of the law it was written that territorial defense is carried out by a type of daring outside the limits of the introduction of hostilities, it was just technically written that way and it could lead to the fact that if hostilities are conducted er, it means that the territorial defense already has to perform its tasks there or not, another district has already ordered someone else, this is firstly and secondly, the authority of the commander-in-chief was clearly spelled out to the effect that sections can be redistributed on his instructions terroborony to another region for the conduct of hostilities is, well, again, this is a technical thing, but it comes from those real units of territorial defense, their numbers are comparable, if not even now more than all the ground forces, so if it is such a powerful tool, a powerful military subdivision and well, this

does not mean that they should be used in the first place but such an opportunity in the holocaust must necessarily be, in the end , we have little time, we already have time, i definitely want you ask about the work of the kyiv council. what is the time now? tell me what documents you are working on. what else is important? has everything already been approved and in the end you can focus completely for the time being on the victory of our, well, in general, the activities of the kyiv council, which are the majority of local self -government bodies. now it is quite limited due to the fact that during the legal regime of martial law, part of the powers are transferred to local self-government bodies, to military administrations, etc., at the beginning of the war, a number of important decisions were voted to ensure vital activities of the city for the functioning of

critical infrastructure objects of communal institutions and enterprises so that this is the situation of the budget and the allocation of funds from the reserve fund and the smooth operation of the enterprise and also certain benefits for business activities in the conditions of martial law because we understand that in addition to our army at the front, the second important component of our victory is the economy of rear-line operations, therefore it is very important that the company has the opportunity even in such difficult conditions to continue its work and not go bankrupt for of this, the city government is simplifying the conditions for conducting b-business in the city as much as possible, reducing er, all er, expenses, for example, for rent by tenants, etc. and that is why these are the decisions that were experienced . also primarily concerns the economic side of the city of kyiv, is it

possible to have approximate data on how many percent of small and medium-sized entrepreneurs have already resumed their work in the capital, it is difficult to say because this process is ongoing. well, we see that as well as hygienists who left the city for honey are returning, families are also returning with business , that is, part of the business was able to conduct relaxation and work remotely, but a significant number, especially this applies to small and medium-sized businesses, are returning and resuming their work now . requests for percentages are not ready to say in this time tomorrow was easier, of course, working hours ah, uh, i understand that you are in kyiv right now, uh, how much life there has changed in the last week, a lot of roadblocks have already they have already cleaned up more and more eh, a

coffee shop is opening in the store, that is, again, those are the small entrepreneurs who first left, they are already actively returning eh to kyiv, the city has already completely come to life for you according to your subjective the view is so er, well, what i see every day with er, the life of kyiv, of course. and this is not yet a contractual state, but as much as possible, citizens try to do this, at least for themselves. the feeling that the same difficult hours of business have already passed. not all of it is restored yet, of course in the streets, of course, some of the checkpoints remained, but first of all, i am responsible for the military administration, well, it is trying to simplify as much as possible for logistics and infrastructure, because, after all, kyiv is the largest city of ukraine, the largest number of citizens and

businesses are concentrated here, and even the flow of transport, which passes through the city, this is a significant number, and therefore everything that concerns, except for security issues, such global territorial defense of kyiv is now withdrawn, almost the city they they are preparing to fortify the area in case there is a threat again, so the city is actually coming to life now after we had a vocal defense in the winter and spring, the vocal defense was taken outside the city, or rather the rgd-version-reconnaissance groups and it actually doesn’t exist, or it’s reduced to a minimum, eh, eh, territorial defense is responsible for the fight against the drg, it will only be applied, well, first of all, to ensure the regime when the military administration

uses territorial defense forces for for example, there is the vaccination of some area or the checking of documents, e-e, the decision has now been made by the military command that our units, our anti-terrorist battalions, e-e, they are currently engaged in training . the number of different divisions and law enforcement agencies and other law enforcement structures that uh-uh are engaged in this on a permanent basis, that is, uh-uh, always even there, regardless of the day of the day, what uh-uh is against of possible dirge activities in the territory of kyiv, of course, this struggle is being waged, it does not always publish its results, because we understand that er, that is connected with the intelligence activities of the enemy, er, it all requires maximum

neutralization. only later this can be published , so i think that after the war we will find out how in kyiv we know about street renaming, mayor vitaliy klitschko three weeks ago seems to have announced that by may 9 they will change the name of all streets that are connected to russia, and here i see that and yesterday's news, what - the kyiv city council decided to extend the deadline for collecting proposals for renaming of streets, that is, they are still gathering, and so they say public opinion, then they will rename something in kyiv until may 9. is this process delayed a little in our country? i think that directly until may 9, and there will be a renaming and this concerns probably more such legal and technical points of this process, uh, a few weeks

ago, to be more precise, more than a month ago, the procedure uh, according to which renaming is carried out, and a significant role uh, well, in that process, the system was given first of all to places that should decide on the names of the streets that have something to do with the soviet heritage or some russian language. maybe there are toponyms or some figures, and secondly, it is usually the commission on residence, which includes representatives and the spheres of culture and history, etc., and already according to the results of the processing of the proposed options from e kyivans, the kyiv city council meeting will make a specific change there, the streets will vote for them, well, we will wait, thank you very much for taking the time to stay on our air, peaceful and quiet we wish you a good night, vasyl popatenko, deputy of the kyiv city council, faction, voice, lawyer, uh,

he was on the phone with us, uh, they talked, uh, in particular, about how things are going in the capital of ukraine, and now we'll talk about how things are going in transcarpathia, we know that yesterday uh, here you russian rockets arrived for the first time at the beginning of the war. meanwhile, the social and medical spheres in transcarpathia are already overloaded, because that is where an extremely large number of refugees went in the regional center. there are almost no cities for settlement in the entire region. 18 thousand displaced people are housed in communal institutions. how do they live ? our tetyana synko from kyiv, with her dearest son and four dachshunds, found shelter from explosions and russian missiles in uzhgorod. she currently lives in one of the city's sports complexes, but on condition, the woman does not complain because she is safe, i have all the necessary social protection, they don't give us things here, they give us food stamps, we sleep here, we have heat here, we have installed boilers, we can, uh,

hygienic, some needs, if we could fulfill our self-service needs, the evacuees live in the same in hostels, kindergartens and schools in the city, there are about 30 resettlement points, and 3.5 thousand people occupied such housing on a permanent basis, cheaply, they do not pay time limits, there is no registration and get clothes, hygiene products, medicines, you can in the aid station in savinny gnizdilok, but they measure it, yes, listen. what do you think, you are a male person? what is the biggest difference between people passing by at the beginning of the war? more than 20,000 people registered at the aid station. some of them left for abroad, many stayed, and now there is not enough housing for new immigrants in uzhgorod. settlements are not being carried out, there are still a few places that we are holding somewhere . well, some will come at night. there are mothers with children. well, for those that we are strengthening for four resettlement, with a large

number of people, there is already no way, almost 400,000 18,000 hryvnias for internally displaced persons were accommodated in communal facilities free of charge for internally displaced persons, it is planned to buy half a thousand apartments and build houses with state funds, the places for construction are still being chosen for the first time, it will be owned by the state and will be rented free of charge to displaced persons, and in the future it will be determined by the government and the president how will it be transferred to the property that there will be such a need in transcarpathia, both do not rule out that entrepreneurs who moved their business here will remain in the region, and still the majority of forced migrants after the announcement of the victory, they plan to return home even if they have to build housing again, the war will end we plan to return home to sanko yury rakhovich live tv channel
