and continue our struggle. we also know that there were some mistakes during the preparation and now we don't want to talk about it. the people who are responsible for this know about it. they should know about it. what are these mistakes and now these people they even get some advantages from people, although these people do not know the situation well, but what worries us the most is our national security, and we do not want to spoil anything here, many people consider us heroes of ukraine

. what no one expected that we would last this long. i'm almost sure that the file if we continue to fight and uh, the situation is critical throughout the country and i'm not trying to shift the focus directly to us because now the problem is all over the country, but we uh, we blocked a very serious enemy force of about seven brigades of 15,000 people and now uh and now all the brigades have left by the end of april and we thank you very much for the informational support in the

world and because it really helps us a lot and now people know who we are they see who we are see the truth, and the truth is that the most important thing is that we know that we know the truth, we do not know how to lie and we do not like to lie, we are military personnel, people see people who can be trusted because of who we are and because of the fact that we do not lie

uh, about special actions rarty mode we must get guarantees of a cease- fire, conduct several operations, firstly, we need to evacuate, secondly, we need to evacuate, and uh, we can

evacuate either by land or by sea, there is no difference , everything can be done, the russians can do it differently you can't trust the russians, five out of eight times, they violated the terms of the ceasefire, there is a danger, so we think that the next time it may fail, what is the greatest need right now, and the russians are also considering a southern passport if the allies

can, if this is possible and they will become part of the conflict, but i should not talk about it, the russians must be stopped, and this is the main threat, the conditions are much better to stay in ukraine on ukrainian territory, ukraine fought on ukrainian territory, but we should not talk about it to speak and choose at least any option would be good if it is safe because

at some point the war will end and the trials of the russians will begin, those people who commit war crimes in russia will be tried and we can take participation in this process is a very important and valuable thing. now we have. i see that we no longer have space . i think that you answered very long and in detail, and i will tell you that now we will buy a lot of news from what you said. on almost all snakes and i thank you very much for that, i didn't do it, there is more, there is more one more brutal question

is that when you do not, in the end, there are many options, what options for brutality, when a tank actually shoots at a person, usually a civilian, when when a bomber drops a bomb on a room in which people are hiding when the front line is located several kilometers from the city and they are firing hails, artillery is firing at the very

center of the city when you see the houses burning when when you see how people people people in shelters the russians drop bombs on them and these shelters collapse and cement floors fall on people there are a lot of such uh dirty uh parts and this is what makes you even more angry and angry, they came here in order to tear up our land , kill our people, well, they will get the same answer that the russians want to establish the

mariupol people's republic you are completely out of context about the situation, please don't annoy me, the people's republic as it is in the donetsk region, and this is not only about the people of mariupol, the only people who belong to the mariupol people's republic are we, the people who are now here in nazovskal and where is she? and in general, she is in captivity, but i think her participation regardless, unfortunately, that is, no

information about what, thank you, a-a account, er, er, battlefielding . tell about the battles better than ordinary people, the best answer to this question is for all the people who are here, e.e. ferry them to the peaceful part and they tell you everything, the best plan is to evacuate everyone from mariupol to a safe territory in ukraine and inform, in addition, guarantee only uh,

guarantee that there will be some mediators, because on the other hand, because we can simply become victims, it can also be a disaster for ukraine, because it can very strongly and quickly destabilize the situation , on the other hand, the russians can just kill us, like the results and international, these operations are peace operations, operations with deer must be carried out, it has begun, come on, elena, the article of the law of

the united nations can be done, and i think it should be done, and we need your informational support and your informational presence here and marker or 10 pm we can show the situation we will stop here and i will now finish with one phrase led a-ah what terrible things you should

stop all this but not ignore yes ilya i think that's all and i'm very thank you because it seems to me that i was a little tired to come and they need to weld it all together and write it down i thank you very, very much i can't i have no words how much we owe you all and how much i want to thank you and say that you are heroes and every day and every second we just remember i understand that it's not wrong that you want and you would like help but that's all i can say i'm very ashamed that i

can't help anymore i thought here now we'll give my word to my wife we'll give my word just to denis's wife , and i think we also have a few questions for her, so i'm asking for a camera or now for technical support, please put us on the air. yes hello everyone, i'm kateryna prokopenko prokopenko, the wife of the commander of the azov regiment, denis prokopenko, and i want you first of all call to sign the petition which they created me not long ago, now the full program is being acquired, all the necessary votes are being collected, but publicity is needed, so call your friends, relatives, acquaintances, that they spread it as quickly as possible, signed it because now it is very important, we do not

lose hope for the salvation of our men, military warriors, because it is very important that such people lives, it is very important to save them, to help by all possible methods, to believe in a miracle, to follow these actions and to do everything so that they survive, in no case should you give up, cry, put head on shoulders from thoughts about which about some pessimistic scenarios in no case should we do this we hope that we will be able to work them we want to do it and it is very important to do it now as much as possible join all possible initiatives shout in this world by all possible methods to get them out of there because it shouldn't become a large-scale tragedy. i think if all the names of the steel all our military uh will be destroyed there, then there is simply no sense.

about the values ​​of life, if the government and the world allow this and allow their destruction, then i think that we will simply be surrounded by the most extensive darkness that can exist in this world at all, and i don't even know how our country will be able to live without our defenders. therefore, now we really hope that the government will take care of everyone will make diplomatic and political efforts to save them and it is very important to work on this now. thank you very much . and you can ask them in the chat. do you see the questions in the chat? if so, tell me. if not, i’ll read them to you. yes, i’m stuck here. it’s better to read them.

if possible, you need to click the chat button there. in contact, is there support and communication, is it from the public sector? unfortunately, there is no contact. the authorities have been writing to me all these days . foreign journalists are always in contact with me. they write to me, they support me, they want to take my comment, some ukrainian journalists are, but specifically the authorities from there was no government, of course, no one wrote the following question: do you know that your husband and his regiment. that is, his unit is already a symbol of the struggle for freedom. yes, of course, i knew this from the 14th year, when

this regiment was first formed, the then battalion and the liberation of mariupol began history and we were all inspired by their actions and their heroism and are currently inspired and they confirm it every time confirm all their heroic ideas in general and in general we are the best warriors in the world here there is no word even the best warriors are the best say please, do you have a relationship with your husband, at least once? well, for a certain period, he writes to me once a day , but very briefly. the question is everything is fine, let’s hold on, that is, was there an evacuation, was it, or was it not, was there a violation

of the silence regime, was the russian violated, solve that is, concrete answers, for example, what questions, but he didn’t tell me anything extra, nothing secret. and what do you think, you know, we have a lot they talked about the fact that the united nations and the red cross are there, well , i'm sorry for what i'm going to say now, but this is an impotent organization. do you think that if they gave some guarantees, the guys would agree to leave? is there no longer trust in these organizations ? we will see how events will develop. we are waiting for the abstraction procedure for the best scenario of this procedure with maximum security guarantees for our military. that is, we need to see how events will develop further and what will be offered to our to the military, but they will not lay down their weapons and they will not go into captivity either. we want them all to survive and tell their stories already here for

their children, for their wives, for everyone, another question. what do you expect from zelensky? i expect what he will do now, everything to put pressure on putin on russia to liberate our soldiers as soon as possible because there are already eternal days left and we just don't have the strength to see how our soldiers die every day either from gangrene or from shots from the daily assault and we are waiting for decisive action watch next, we will evaluate further, anyway, how will it all turn out, but we are waiting for a positive solution to this situation. we do not want these large-scale tragedies, we do not want them all to die and then there are all these heroic stories about them, we want, uh, their heroism in reality, hear and see from them themselves, hear all their stories in reality. we don't want to read it later in history books, through third parties from history, we

need them here, alive, now, uh, we don't need this large-scale tragedy, uh, next question katerina do you know if all the families of the defenders of mariupol were evacuated from the city, i can't say, and i ask you to forgive me for saying this, but i will ask you to repeat uh, are you satisfied with the government's action at the moment, no i lack the action thank you to the government, i would like to remind you that the hero's wife, kateryna prokopenko, was with us, we are addressing this, it is very important. this is now our main goal, a link to the chat, please. yes, and i thank you very much, and i

understand that it is very banal to say, hold on, but i don't know that we have no hope at all, we will do we have influences and it is impossible to save them and we don’t need to cry sit suffer i don’t know now we need to do everything rallies posts reposts journalists communicate achieve politicians diplomats president wives president all possible methods even those that were always considered fantastic and fantastic any creative ideas any which ones will help save our soldiers there, they are now relevant, we must do everything and not put them in the grave in advance, it is not necessary to do it at all, i understand that some pessimistic scenarios are going around now and mass peering and there are such opinions, but we want to do everything to prevent this from happening, because we already had an example of a successful extraction procedure, operation dynamo during the battle for dunkirk, and we are inspired

by this operation, we want to do it now in the ukrainian way and the ukrainian scenario, and it is necessary to make the maximum subsidy of all possible efforts thank you i hope i think everything will be fine and we will all see you in another place yes see you we will definitely do everything for this to see with our parents that joined our stream today. thank you for listening to all this. thank you for making news. azovstal was with you and i was with you. thank you. mariupol is a sea resort, port and metallurgical capital at the same time when muscovy deported 18,000 greeks from the crimea, they

settled in the azov region and named the town mariupol. during the two years of occupation, the nazis turned the city into a scorched desert and the very day after the liberation, the people of mariupol began to rebuild the city, what the russian invaders are doing to mariupol today, not even the nazis dreamed of it, but the free land sanctified by blood will never surrender to the enemy who does not understand how to fight for the freedom of mariupol invincible , you and i watched this important press conference of the defenders, you stopped you know that they have been stopping the offensive of russian

troops on the territory of eastern ukraine for many days, that the russians were doing everything possible to resume this offensive as soon as possible because they really wanted to day to day which is sacred for vladimir putin that's how we understand that on may 9 it will be like that tomorrow so that they can report on the full occupation of mariupol, but this is not happening and the russians are already acting more harshly in this direction, only such active international efforts should be made to the russians agreed that the civilian residents of mariupol should leave, and from australia, we know how people stay in general. but they stayed in hitler’s times because of the filtration camps because of the russian troops

who decide who can leave, who cannot leave, who can enter the free territory of ukraine or even in russia, and who cannot, and this is such, i would say, an incredible example of the heroic behavior of the defenders of mariupol, if the kremlin does not realize that it must provide these people with an exit from this territory, this is there will be a huge mistake that will become, i would say, a historical mistake for russians, we have the spokesperson of the ukrainian sewerage committee of america andriy dobryanskyi on the phone, congratulations mr. andriy, congratulations, thank you very much for the great broadcast it was interesting here in america and new ones, we saw all of

this. tell me what now. do you feel that now the diaspora can do for ukraine? the most important thing is to hear those voices. it was very cool that there was an english - language option for the event. just two days ago from the speaker of the congress who had a press conference after that when she returned from ukraine and what she saw herself and expressed that it is necessary to include russia as a sponsor of terror on the main link with the usa, this is not it such an event will not happen without direct communication or that visiting kyiv directly or hearing those voices as we heard today, this is the most important thing for americans to hear or even just now and early today before your broadcast, i listen to the american honey, i also spoke here, people who have visited ukraine, people who

do not go to europe and they have their own ideas, but they help us the most as hawks as advocates for ukraine, if the people themselves heard from you and also visited ukraine, tell me what can be done now from the point of view of humanitarian aid , fundraising for the armed forces, weapons, funds for refugees, what can be done to speed up the end of this war and speed up ukrainian victories? what do you think? well, i think the most important problem for any help to ukraine is that the airports are closed and we are still asking the american army to go to other european countries why won't it be possible to secure at least one airport on the territory of ukraine so that our volunteers don't have to collect things and either by ship to

gdansk or by plane to warsaw and then a few hours to the border, then it's fine to cross the border because they leave there and in and come in the same way and then further to the point, whether it is the central point in lviv or when humanitarian aid arrives through hungary or romania, and it all goes through other hubs, and it would be better if the aid flew directly to ukraine on ukrainian territory and it will come to the rest of ukraine sooner, where necessary, but as far as i understand, in such a situation, it is necessary to ensure the safety of ukrainian airports, which, as you know, have been bombarded since the first day of the war, the first explosions were precisely at the airports in ukraine, they started with airports. and now we see whether it is transcarpathia, vinnytsia or somewhere else, that the bombs are now e-e trains, so that there was no possibility

, or there were no roads, or e trains could not go, and first of all, they started from the airport, where but we we know that there is an opportunity to protect airports anywhere america wants. we have seen it in afghanistan or in iraq, where others have. and now there is a bigger and bigger question as to how much america wants to get involved in this war, but as we hear from the president of america or the president different countries in europe is not an eyelash, but first of all, it is united against ukraine, but this is against the entire democratic world, so how long does ukraine have to fight on its own, even if things are transmitted by readers or rockets and all. well, how long does ukraine have to defend the goals of the democratic world by itself for 8 months defends this world e without physical help and soldiers of other countries or even the newer ones
