under the muscovite of love and holding a kalash in his earring , and his body in his pocket, and ours suddenly fucked up and became arable, the earth digested the young muscovite, and the muscovites do not have a muscovite. became poland and sweden with the support of the european union, representatives of the countries emphasized that ukraine needs both immediate assistance and long-term support . half a billion dollars of aid, however, according to the president of the european council charles-michel this should be only the beginning we want to express our complete solidarity with ukraine we want to be specific we want to be prompt and this meeting and the decision that may take place today in

my opinion should be a starting point for marshall's european plan for ukraine this means that it will help ukraine we will help its authorities we will help the people of ukraine there are huge humanitarian needs it is also possible to guarantee the security of the authorities and it is important to prepare and act for the reconstruction of the country, and more about the results of this conference and what ukraine needs right now, we will create with myroslava gongadze, who followed the event and joins our broadcast from warsaw myroslava, i am glad to see you myroslava, what is the importance of this meeting of donors in warsaw and what are its the main results for today are to say that in fact we know that poland has become the leader of support for ukraine and it was prime minister mazowiecki who decided that by collecting all possible donors in this way, they will to try to help ukraine the fact is that, well, apart from all other things, the fact is that ukraine will receive practically only a third of the daily

needs for humanitarian aid. well, it is clear that the donor has already begun to discuss the issue and reconstruction of how to rebuild ukraine and support it economically at this stage the task of the conference is this, and this is not the first and not the last conference that will be held specifically to raise funds, and the prime minister of ukraine spoke about it today. well, and also others the initiators of this conference let's listen ukraine has many needs humanitarian financial military due to the russian unjustified war and invasion of ukraine and that is why we are organizing this conference that is why we are here today to try to secure more financial aid for ukraine and of course we also have to support ukraine with arms humanitarian aid and other things, we should introduce tougher sanctions and help ukraine even more, and finland is ready to do it myroslava 6 from

half a billion today collected billions of dollars at this conference, but according to the prime minister of ukraine denys shmogal, who by the way was present in warsaw today, at the beginning of a full-scale war, ukraine's budget deficit is 5 billion every month, we talked for a week today what other resources and ways does ukraine plan to attract for its financial support, well , i also thanked poland. and i also thanked the united states in the conversation with me for the efforts they are making, and in particular, this money, which is currently under consideration by the house of representatives and the senate of the 33 billion american dollars that the white house requested from ukraine, they are very much counting on these funds. it is also clear that other international financial institutions, in particular, he spoke about the international monetary fund, the european bank for reconstruction and development, all these structures actually

assess the needs of ukraine and agree with the needs with the daily needs of financial financial support of ukraine and will provide such support is also another direction that the prime minister talked about today is the so-called sister cities or sister countries of certain regions of ukraine, and some countries have already taken over certain regions there, for example, where odesa , for example, greece will be taken care of, many regions expect such and such care. that is, this is another direction. well, it is clear that the president of the president zelenskyi announced the creation of a special fund that will accumulate financial and other humanitarian support from international partners around the world, because the financial stability of our country is very important for everyone our partners because when the war is over and ukraine will win this war after victory we will need strong economic conditions to start

the rapid recovery of our territory, our regions and cities and our partners understand very clearly we must closely cooperate with them to move in this direction myroslava that partially already mentioned about it, a virtual volodymyr zelenskyi also joined the conference and expressed the idea of ​​this patronage of foreign countries over specific regions or regions by cities and on this from his side too denys shmagal also emphasized what the ukrainian government offers in this regard and in other aspects . it is clear that what is important to the ukrainian government today is to structure this assistance, and this is exactly what we talked about with the prime minister, where exactly these funds will be sent. one more nuance that president zelenskyi announced today, and in fact it will raise a lot of questions, in particular in european countries, namely, the president called on the european union to accept ukraine into the

european union even now during the war and we we know that some countries, european countries such as austria, for example, believe that this is not the right time and that of course, this issue should be considered. the government of ostape myroslava is visiting russia, it is not only ukraine that is suffering, and the world sees it, feels it, understands it, and in particular, we know that hostilities and the impossibility of exporting agricultural products from ukrainian blocked ports in particular from odesa. this is how they can cause a food crisis in other countries around the world, in particular in africa and in asia and in other regions. how serious is this threat now and how is ukraine together with its partners going to decide? i know. you also asked the ukrainian prime minister about this. of the minister took place on this issue because in fact this is a

huge huge problem, i spoke with representatives of the ministry of foreign affairs and will also speak with the minister of agriculture of ukraine next week an american government official who deals with the agro-industrial complex is also coming here, all of them, all of them, this issue of food security in the world is one of the key ones for the international community , and it is clear that well, today mr. shmogay said that this issue is not only this year, it is also an issue for the following years. that's why what if ukraine cannot ship its own grain, unload its granaries, which are blocked today, this will create a problem, and the next harvest will need to be stored. i know that the representatives between the ministries of foreign affairs are now looking for so -called mobile granaries. maybe they will even store this grain in the fields. there is practically such a world technology and they are trying to do it

. let's listen to what the prime minister says about this very issue of the food crisis. if brought over block a osiport, we understand that if we do not unblock our sea ports, this may lead not only to a food crisis this year, but also to possible famine in many countries in africa and asia continents it will lead to a food crisis in the coming years because our granaries are full of pre-harvest and when we collect even 90% of this year's crop we will not have a place to store this new crop in ukraine so we urgently need the support of our partners they are discussing these options myroslava thank you very much for your inclusion. i will wait for your story for the next meeting on air. i will remind you myroslava dongadze, our correspondent directly from warsaw joined our broadcast, we continue our

defending your country and your dignity. i was in lviv twice at the beginning of the war together with a team of doctors from my organization med-global were training doctors and nurses in ukraine when ukrainian doctors, officers and representatives from the ministry of health found out that i was providing medical in particular, they asked for help from syria to prepare them for the possible use of chemical weapons and we continue to release the whole world and the united states are also currently monitoring the development of events in mariupol, for the third day the assault on the delivery of the gazovstal plant has been ongoing , deputy commander of the regiment azov sviatoslav reported in his telegram channel palamar, according to him , heavy fighting continues at the factory, and in the basements and the warehouse remains a civilian, and the red cross announced that they had sent a humanitarian convoy to evacuate people, which, according to expectations, should arrive in the city on friday morning, meanwhile, the relatives and

relatives of the blocked azov fighters are desperately calling on the world community to do everything possible to save all the people who were besieged by the russians. anna kostyachenko spoke with several of them in kyiv. good day, one patch please dozens of times olga bought coffee here with her fiance. he said that your eyes are like the khazar sea . it was in this park that their first date took place. olga's fiance is a soldier in the azov regiment and has been defending mariupol for more than 60 days and is now blocked on azovstali tells the girl for the last time she said she was in touch a week ago they don't say how hard it is for them but we understand and find out through the civilians how much they help and i haven't eaten anything for three days i found out that i just found porridge that someone didn't eat and said that it was the most delicious during the two months that he had to eat, he wrote to me that everything was fine, only about the

porridge, i found out that valentina's husband is also a soldier of the azov regiment with him, the woman lost her phone connection at the beginning of march, and when his number suddenly appeared on the network, struck me with a message, and then we received the word of donetsk in yours. glory to donetsk, your husband is two hundred years old, very scared. you don't understand what you should do. it was already 10 pm. and you understand that no state structures will give you an answer. i started calling him number they somehow unblocked it, maybe he is in captivity, the message turned out to be a wicked joke of the russian occupiers who stole the soldier's phone , later valentin was informed that the man is alive and defending azov steel however, the news that they receive the wives and brides of azov fighters are more and more disappointed thirst, hunger and lack of medicine under the constant bombardment of the plant by russian

missiles, that is why the wives of the fighters in azov almost every day for over a month have been going to peaceful actions to remind the world about the azov hostages . i've been through so much that i can't speak. lyudmila maty is the mother of a 28-year-old volunteer who returned from abroad to defend ukraine. he took part in the battles near bucha and then mariupol. his older brother viktor supports his mother and goes to daily events with her. we all lost contact and we didn't know if zhifon was dead or not, but we were in touch with them and we didn't know if he was alive. whether he died or not, we didn't leave nadia . every day we sat on the maidan with my mother and sister the people of mariupol joined us literally yesterday, a girl from mariupol sent a message that anatoliy

is alive. we saw our brother in a photo on the internet. we understood that it was him by the hands on the leg by his t-shirt in which he left the house in which when we were finishing the interview, olga received news from mariupol, the message was short, the russians broke through the pendant. rights yes, we want to appeal to the un they have the right to take both civilians and military and wounded and dead pay attention to the fact that this is not a controlled aggression against all people it can happen anywhere in france in england in the same russia he violates all rules, drops chemical weapons on people, he does not want to spend billions to heal his country and billions to heal his country anna kostyuchenko oleksia yakushev for the voice of america from

kyiv since the beginning of the war in ukraine, a record number of foreign journalists has been working for them the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine has reduced as much as possible accreditation procedure only in the first days of the war , more than a thousand correspondents received permission to work, including in the east, american journalist jack crosby, one of them, about his work in ukraine, the role of the media in this war, as well as the rules that help him remain impartial, he told iryna solomko, the american journalist jack rosby first packed his things and went to ukraine 7 years ago, it was his first business trip. after graduating from the columbia school of journalism, then his photos from the east and also occupied donetsk was published by the guardian times of london and independentavis news. i always wanted to cover conflicts or natural disasters. such stories resonate with me. i studied the conflict in ukraine. almost all the time while i was studying so when i received my diploma i decided that the best place for me

to start my career was ukraine when almost 7 years later in december 2021 the news about russia's imminent full-scale military invasion of ukraine began to spread in jack decided to return to ukraine now in the role a contributor to the influential magazine rolling stone ukraine was in the news and it looked like this story would really become a big topic of interest to the whole world i felt that i didn't want to miss it all i wanted to be a witness to this story jet arrived in ukraine 12 february and together with my colleagues went to avdiyivka to covered the life of this front-line town, a full-scale russian invasion found him in kharkiv, our apartment was on the sixth floor, we did not know what to do, where the bomb shelter was. i did not hear the center of the city. we were in kharkiv for the first four days of the war and left the city because shelling began to reach the center. as journalists, we were worried that russia might

take the city, and we will be sure that then will happen to us. we thought that if we were captured , we would not be able to work, maybe we would be sent somewhere to rostov and we would have to be detained for a few months during the first month of the war that jack spent in ukraine. he wrote a lot about kharkiv, saw with his own eyes how people hid from shelling in the subway as russian troops targeted from hailstones destroyed saltivka, one of the sleeping areas of the city, where there were no military facilities, i mainly tried to explain to the world the experience of the people i met traveling through ukraine, to explain what the residents felt kharkiv in the first days of the war when they were standing in line for products from constant shelling burned down metro stations, my stories also have a lot of personal experience when a journalist is there and tells his experience. the audience can better understand what is happening. jack is convinced of the large presence of foreign journalists and the provision of their work. on the part of the ukrainian authorities, they helped ukraine win the information war

, comparing it with 2014, russia's actions and intentions are obvious to the world, and this became possible, among other things. thanks to the work of foreign media, which from the very beginning had to call a spade a spade , despite russian propaganda, you cannot work in russia. on how much access you get and how many places and things you can see the role you can play as a journalist is to tell what you see if you follow this rule propaganda cannot win because it based on what people have not seen, the journalist adds, when you are in the epicenter of the war and your life is also at risk, it is difficult not to be emotional , but it has its own rules on how to cover events during the war, the most important thing for me is to be honest, besides, there are several ethical things, for example

i do not pick up and use weapons. i do not in any way promote violence. i have to talk to people who have experienced violence. regardless of whether they are ukrainians or russians, the war in ukraine continues. this story, according to jack, is not yet added for now he is closely following the events unfolding around odesa, it is one of the large cities of ukraine, which he has not yet had the opportunity to visit, but he definitely plans to do so in the near future. iryna solomko from new york, voice of america, is releasing a documentary in american cinemas, desire to see where it is about several military conflicts, in particular, about the ukrainian war, the director of the film, the philosopher and writer bernard andriy lavy, told the voice of america how they filmed a film about his meeting with president volodymyr zelenskyi and the recent trip to ukraine will continue. iryna matviychuk spent the pandemic year 2020 in the zones of military

conflicts at the request of several world newspapers, he covered the situation in regions where conflicts have been going on for several years, among them and the ukrainian donbas . the desire to see the film. after watching this film, many people will understand that there is nothing strange about today's war. now many people say that the war has become by surprise, no one believed that putin would do such a thing , i show that all this was planned and was not a surprise to the pro-russian aggression that eventually led to a full-scale war in ukraine levy spoke with president zelensky back in 2019, then in an interview the ukrainian president spoke about putin very simply, i don't like people with empty eyes - he said, and they have to. i immediately understood that there was a special person in front of me and that we were all wrong, because many perceived him simply as an actor, now he showed himself to be real

a hero of ukrainian cherchel. he is a real leader. at the beginning of the war in donbas, the french director publicly expressed his support for ukraine in the fight against russian aggression. in the last two months, levy has already come to ukraine twice to document the war as it is for his next film. i visited many places, i went to the south near mykolaiv i was also in the north studying in borodyanka what i saw i would call a massacre a crime against humanity it is worth a few hours away from kyiv and you will see it completely destroyed villages, everyone saw footage from buchi. and how many such towns have not yet been captured on camera during one of the trips to ukraine? levi met with former president petro poroshenko, mayor of kyiv vitaliy klitschko, and also spoke with the ukrainian military. i witnessed the capture of that resistance by the

ukrainian army. was amazed at how strong their patriotic spirit is, which we in europe sometimes forget about. ukrainians fight not only for themselves but also for our common values. soon the director plans to visit ukraine again to continue filming for the next film, i am convinced that he will have a lot of work and everything will take a long time, however, the director already knows how his next documentary from the first day of the war will end. i repeat ukraine - morals on the ukrainian side will win and putin will have to surrender. the america application allows you to automatically bypass blocking thanks to the built-in vpn service, read news, watch informative programs and videos, as well as listen to podcasts of the voice of america service in ukrainian

the ukrainian aircraft an-225 mriya was the largest aircraft in the world, at first it was created for the needs of the soviet space program, and later it was requalified as a cargo ship. the vanguard of the plane, the dream was destroyed, but is it possible to restore it? lesya bakalets spoke with the commander of the plane's crew, dmytro antonov. he made the last flight of the plane before the war, devastation and silence devastations of silence this is the impression that you have entered some world stalker, the largest, most powerful, heaviest in the world, such was the ukrainian plane, and 225 mriya, on february 27, on the third day of the war, russian troops destroyed half of the plane completely, almost

half of the plane was killed, the main part of our cockpit was destroyed by the power structures of one wing and the second one i can already see most likely temperature damage no left half-wing right half-wing will no longer be able to be used it will not be possible dmytro antonov commander of one of of the three crews of the plane. he made the last flight of his dreams. on february 5, he returned from denmark. he says for a long time he could not believe that the plane was no longer there. a satellite photo appeared. a satellite photo appeared. the nose of the plane is visible, and the tail is visible from under the hangar, and it seemed like the tail. in the place at the same level as it should be, the plane stands as if everything corresponds to the norm, then somewhere in march, more specific photos appeared and that's when it became clear that the destruction is really serious. but everything is fine for me and for i told everyone until i see her. i won't believe it with my own eyes. dmytro saw a dream the

day after the deoccupation of the city of gostomel, where the hangars of the antonov enterprise are located. in one of them there was a giant plane. traveled all over the world, the plane transported generators for power plants, huge blades of animal windmills and humanitarian aid during the covid-19 pandemic, dreams of delivering medical supplies to fight the coronavirus around the world, in recent years, the plane has been a lot of attention in every airport in the world. many people wanted to know. and how a dream flies, how it was created. how it was created. often before the landing of the

dream , a crowd of plane fans gathered. and we ourselves would never have noticed this if there were not those who met us on the ground. it was an incredible sight. dmytro antonov, like other aviation experts, says that it is impossible to restore the plane, but there is a chance to create the enterprise antonov has an unfinished part of the sister of dreams, iron is there, that is, the case without fillings requires electronics and the rest of the fillings, they say it can cost from 800 million to 3 billion dollars, the amount is large, and the difference is also large, and this only tells about one thing, which is real, which no one has evaluated yet the cost of the work and regardless of the amount, the investment in the new dream is unlikely to pay off , but it needs to be recreated regardless of the commercial benefit, dmytro antonov is sure to assess the economic reasonableness of course if

it will be very, very difficult to try to evaluate only the economic feasibility, because under the dream you have to find such a project, even i do not know how to launch rockets into space, but there is still no such project for the sake of which it would be economically profitable to reproduce it, so i think that at the first stage dreams will be reproduced first of all, as a symbol and a symbol not only of ukraine, a symbol of the whole world, a symbol of victory, lesya bakalets, oleksii osika, voice of america , we will conclude our issue with this, i will remind you that also follow our website for our social networks and as if the web teams are also working tirelessly to keep you up to date with all the latest events and i also remind you that we have daily briefings on youtube and facebook at 18:00 kyiv time and 23:35 kyiv time where you can ask us those questions what are you interested in, friends? thank you for being with us. thank you for your broadcast. i wish you a peaceful night and a peaceful morning. see you soon. glory to
