300 years ago, their goal was to take away our historical memory and national identity, the culture of the aggressor country should not be present on the international stage since the beginning of the war, almost 200 war crimes by russian troops against the cultural heritage of ukraine have been recorded. while in kyiv they were preparing for escalation this is the 75th day of russia's war against ukraine we are talking about this bbc news broadcast from london no word about mobilization no statements about the victory in ukraine and this is still a special operation, not a war, we analyze what putin said at the victory parade in moscow and the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine called the

moscow parade a parade of war criminals and rapists in kyiv and other cities increased the level of danger due to the threat of provocation, we will also release an exclusive interview of the deputy commander of the azov regiment of svyatoslav palamary, this is because the wounded need to be evacuated as soon as possible to remove the wounded from the dead fighters blocked on azov are asking for help before the victory in moscow on red square took place with pathos, although it is more modest than in previous years, there are fewer military personnel, less equipment, and the flight of planes was canceled, as the spokesman for the kremlin said, due to bad weather, according to the

word, the planes were supposed to fly in the shape of the letter z - this is the symbol in russian of the so-called special military operation, that's how they call war in the kremlin, and what's interesting is putin in his speech he never used the term special operation, despite the forecasts, putin did not declare an official war on ukraine at the parade, they did not declare a general mobilization , in general, in his speech, he mostly said no about the victory of the soviet union in the second world war, not about the past, but about the present, he explained the reasons for russia's invasion of ukraine and with details . as meticulous as ever because of the war he unleashed in ukraine and the rattling of nuclear weapons with which he threatens the west, he demonstrated this military potential at the parade, however, during the speech, the russian president did not do as expected new statements related to the war in ukraine, on the other hand

, he still tried to justify the invasion by allegedly defending russia and claimed that the war was due to aggression against nato without any evidence to support his statements. putin said that ukraine was allegedly preparing a punitive operation in donbas. what they said in kyiv that they can get nuclear weapons, and nato, according to him, began to approach russian territories, which became a threat to russia and its borders, such statements are not new, but it seems to the domestic audience that they work a lot russians believe that vladimir putin acted in defense of russia, which became a victim of militants and ukraine and the west. the attention of the whole world was focused on red square. according to putin's speech, people agree that despite

international sanctions and military failures in ukraine, he is not going to deviate from his chosen course yet. british professor serhiy radchenko believes that the russian president is ready to double efforts to make this war last as long as possible hopes to exhaust ukraine and weaken its support from the west now its popularity is not so great yes , there is general support for the war, but it is half-hearted , this time we do not see the level of support that was observed in 2014 with the annexation of crimea and this, by the way, is the reason why does he not dare to announce a general mobilization it would be deeply unpopular with the people and that is not what he wants so he continues to hope to achieve something through perhaps a covert mobilization but it will it is very difficult, therefore the war may become even more unpopular. but now i would not say that people are delighted with it

for the russians, the victory over nazism in the second world war has become an extremely strong symbol, isn't that why putin justifies the war in ukraine with the alleged fight against nazism, but as the minister of defense stated britain and penmoles putin and his team today themselves have become a reflection of fascism due to the invasion of ukraine putin his closest circle and his generals have now become a reflection of fascism and tyranny repeating the mistakes of the hoteliers regimes of the last century, in many cities of russia marches of the so-called immortal regiment took place, and as i inform you, this year people were allowed to carry posters with portraits not only of relatives who fought in the second world war, but also of participants in the war against ukraine, observers note that there were no military vehicles at the parade in moscow which are usually demonstrated by the russian military there, they did not see the

zenith complexes armored volley fire systems, and they assume that the russian military can use this technique in battles in ukraine at the same time what was taken to red square yes, these are long-range nuclear missiles, a powerful reminder of russia's nuclear arsenal, this is a threat that moscow has repeatedly mentioned in general. putin could not talk about the achievements in the war in ukraine in advance in moscow and did not talk about the next plans , he would rather wage war on exhaustion, this opinion was expressed by the reviewer of the scientific institute of oriental studies in washington, anna borshchevska, compared to the expectations we had the day before, i would characterize this parade as extremely ostentatious we expected maybe the announcement of the mobilization of some sort of victory that putin would present to the russian people compared to the previous parades which were pompous and demonstrated military power it was quite muted i think this is due to the fact that things are not going very well for vladimir putin he is looking for ways of its

continuation and i think is preparing for a protracted war at the same time in kyiv, president zelensky in his address on the occasion of the victory over nazism day said that ukraine won the second world war and will win the war with russia today we we celebrate the day of victory over nazism and we will not give anna a fragment of our history to anyone, we are proud of our ancestors who, together with other peoples as part of the anti-hidler coalition, defeated nazism and we will not allow anyone to annex this victory, we will not allow it to be appropriated, our enemy dreamed that we would refuse to celebrate may 9 and victory over nazism so that the word denazification could get a chance millions of ukrainians fought against nazism and went through a difficult and long way expelled the nazis from luhansk expelled the nazis from donetsk liberated kherson from the occupiers

melitopol-berdyansk expelled the nazis from yalta, simferopol, kerch and the whole of crimea were liberated from the nazis in mariupol, they expelled the nazis from all of ukraine, but the cities i named today especially inspire us. they give us faith. the road to it is difficult but we have no doubt that we will win and in zelensky's address i said that there will be a victory parade on khreshchatyk on the eve of the victory day in ukraine , the war dead were honored on the day of remembrance and reconciliation as this is what western countries are doing, and my colleague olga malchevska olga is joining us from kyiv. the ukrainian authorities were wary that russia could use may 9 as an excuse to intensify the fighting, but it seems that escalation did not happen today. congratulations, zhenya. well, today the air alarm went off several times here in kyiv.

quite uncomfortable sounds, but it must be said that fortunately nothing terrible happened and it was used. it was just that all people perceived it as a signal to take into account to be careful , but it can be said that even according to the mood of the population no one ran to the bomb shelter, but for the sake of justice, i will say that the streets of the city are quite empty . earlier, the authorities called on the residents of kyiv and the guests of the city today not to organize celebrations, not to go out whenever possible, and also not to go out on the streets because they expected a provocation, but the curfew was not extended and it will start in half an hour after the end of our edition at 10:00 p.m. kyiv time, however, we know, we have heard from various sources that moscow held victory councils in the occupied cities of ukraine, in particular in the still destroyed mariupol in in occupied kherson, a stage in the annexed crimea was lit somewhere, the eternal fire was lit somewhere, the so-called posthumous regiment passed. if the air

alarm is working now, i have to say that we will then be forced to leave, but so far it seems that everything is calm in kyiv. we talked to the residents of the city about what they think about the celebration parade in moscow, how do they perceive it and whether the russian war actually displaced the memory of the victory of the ukrainians in ukraine and in the hearts of ukrainians, who then fought side by side with the stryans in victory over by nazi germany in the second world war, see the plot of glory square in military kyiv, monuments of the second world war now protect russia's resistance against ukraine , there are no official celebrations in kyiv today during martial law, mass events are prohibited on may 8-9 in the capital, which in many other cities ukraine expected a provocation, so the authorities increased city patrols, but no one forbids those who want to honor the memory of those who died in the second world war in a private place today here on glory square near the eternal of fire as always you can see fresh flowers but

they carry them with different emotions with your stupid questions as to who что всёвеается ето не ваш праздник against the question of why you are not asked by cities for such questions in the park and hold discussions there how do you see of course this victory it's not the time to celebrate, but we always remember about these people, about these victims, i won't talk about these victims, the politicians won't talk about the kremlin, on may 9 we celebrate with large-scale parades not only in russia, but also in the occupied cities of ukraine. the ukrainian foreign ministry called it a military parade criminals and baltists among those who came to the eternal flame in kyiv to express their opinions about the kremlin parade, few wanted it to be held there or not and to what degree it is held i watched it just so that

i want to have java, what was going on, but this is very cynical, this is what was said, this is fear, this is not true , and this, well, everyone knows it, but it is impossible to imagine , that is, the line between the story of the war and were from the modern war in kyiv feels blurred. these are the remains of a helicopter that was shot down near kyiv in all the kozarovykhs. the exposition was destroyed by the military equipment of the russians. it was opened in the museum of the second world war not far from the soviet tanks that defeated nazi germany. the meaning of this holiday is absolutely impossible. there is no way to interpret in the russian generativity there are european negatives. like a day of remembrance like a day of victory over nazism, but we must understand that today in the minds of people there is

the biggest dream and the dream of a new victory is cherished about the victory over racism, according to the director of the museum, attitudes to the celebration of victory day and its date may differ in society, but no one will take the memory of it from ukrainians from kyiv olga melchevska and andrii marshal bbc the situation in kyiv remains calm thank god, but as we heard and the curfew was never extended, but we know that it was extended in some cities of ukraine, in particular, in zaporizhzhia, today the curfew continues all day, it will end only tomorrow zhenya well, russia continues its offensive on donbass, while these days in ukraine there were many foreign guests of representatives of the event who support ukraine and biden's wife and the example of canada justin trudeau and the head of the german parliament today in odesa chairman of the european council of charm-mishelok what were these visits like and what is the situation at the front today odesa he wrote in

his twitter, he wanted to spend this day in the city that pushkin wrote about, that this is a city where you can feel europe, at the same time, the situation in the east is worsening, the russians continue to shell donbass by the notification of the general staff of the bvc, it is quite difficult to quickly verify this information from independent sources, from what we see from official sources, sloviansk was shelled. we also know that two people died in kharkiv oblast. zelensky confirmed the information that about 60 people were killed because the russians dropped a bomb on the school this weekend and actually the situation continues to be quite tense. popasnoy and also in other directions in the donbass, for example, i have this program here which shows us in which regions of ukraine

the air alarm will go off, and somewhere it goes off more often, somewhere more rarely, but i will tell you that in the donbas area, in the raisin direction, this is always red region and it is scary to even think about what is happening there. zhenya, people used this school in the village of belohorivka as a shelter, but it was demolished by an air strike. it is believed that about 60 people died under the rubble, so russian forces continue to attack east and south of ukraine in mariupol they are looking for how to get to the last ukrainian fighters who are hiding in the huge metallurgical plant azovstale take it accompany the couple continue to watch and watch how they move this command sounds for this russian drone it is believed that about two thousand ukrainian soldiers are still determined to give the last battle broadcast, we have little chance to stay alive if we are taken prisoner, and

we will not surrender because this is too great a gift for the enemy, because every named person for all the women and children who used this factory as a shelter for more than two months were saved, the officials said, but the daily shelling destroyed their city, which once flourished . in the camps, i.e., the russian corrupt troops are keeping more than 100,000 of the population of which they use destroyed as a criminal such a terrorist organization today the city and now they are using them at work so that they disassembled the destruction, collected the killed now to help tens of thousands of mariupol families who are trying to restore their destroyed lives, special centers are operating, eight-year-old vika

likes it here, but her mother is still trying to forget the terrible moments from her hometown rockets planes rockets later ships around us everything was on fire people on the streets severed limbs it was difficult it was scary i don't want anything that's what those who stayed in mariupol should remember should do everything that they can continue to move despite their war-ravaged lives, so even among the ukrainians of this school, someone arranged a place for themselves to play. russian military resumed shelling of the azovsteel plant in mariupol. they are asking to take the wounded soldiers out of there, the deputy commander of the azov regiment svyatoslav palamar told the bbc, but in what conditions they are under

intense shelling and bombing from the urs barrel artillery planes are working, i.e. the so-called mountain snakes, during the night we counted more than 25 bombardment planes. this, including three strategic bombers, are barrel artillery, tanks, infantry, mortars, snipers, machine guns, and so on, and the ceasefire situation is very difficult no uh will we be able to get these wounded out today we don't know uh there are some agreements going on negotiations are going on uh will it be fulfilled well i don't know it's hard to say but i can only say one thing and emphasizes that the wounded must be evacuated as soon as possible. today, again, many people were killed, many wounded, and we no longer have a single

surgical instrument or the ability to provide qualified medical care, so the situation is difficult . this number is increasing every day, just as the number of dead is increasing every day. but we have been shouting about the environment since march 1, and since the first of march, you know what, it is cynical about what the hell is wrong with us promises there, well, let’s say so above. yes, the guys promise us that you will stay there until the middle of march, we will do everything there, there will be help, nothing, you will stay until april, everything will be fine, nothing will come to you, nothing will be

supported there until such and such a date in may, they kept it nothing is happening and somehow well, we hope that, in principle, somehow thanks to you, thanks to journalists, thanks to some politicians who do it not to everyone. on thanks to your words turn your transmissions we can influence the world we can influence the un to make immediate immediate decisions regarding the evacuation of the wounded and possibly regarding the extract of the e-e garrison yes which is here which i think has done more than he could do you understand in what situation we are, you understand the overwhelming number of opponents we are fighting. and i

will say yes, i am very sorry that some politicians are talking about the fact that this is a successful operation to evacuate civilians, but i want to emphasize that during this so-called suspension regime of the fire of this successful operation, not a word is said about the military, who are doing their job , not for their duty, i would say so, not for praise, why literally two days, two days ago, two days ago, three of our soldiers were killed, it was during of the ceasefire during the evacuation, that is, the car from which the civilian was supposed to be picked up and taken to the destination point was hit by an atgm, one soldier was killed, six were wounded, and two servicemen died as a result of being dropped

bombs from uavs during the cease-fire regime and during the regime during the evacuation regime. well, i was just struck by some cynicism of our politicians. yes, who declared that everything was successful. we took out hundreds of civilians there. not a word about the soldiers who died, not a single thank you to these soldiers who perform their duty, although i emphasize that they are not for gratitude, but to remember they need to be understood, they perform at the cost of their lives here, uh, just unreal, under unreal conditions, unreal heroic feats, this is already the third place, the third month continues and you know what was worse was that one of the politicians during the negotiations said that to our commander who was directly involved in the evacuation, they said that you are busy with your own affairs, but not what is needed. well, i

think that this politician will understand about who am i talking about? and this is an extraordinary time for the hero of ukraine, who leads the defense of mariupol and at the cost of his own life, at the cost of uh, let's say he came under fire, he was almost killed, and after these words, you know, it's very unpleasant, and now the wound on his heart remains. the heart remains after when they say that we did everything possible there no, we did not do everything possible, everything possible should have been done earlier and we must now continue to do everything possible because, since march 1, we are calling on the international community and the whole world to evacuate people here, there are still thousands of evacuees tens of thousands of people died under the rubble, we do not know how many more people are under the rubble, this is mariupol, this is the price of such

long -term actions ukraine does not have the necessary weapons to evacuate civilians, the ukrainian authorities said that all women, children and the elderly were evacuated from azov, vice-prime minister iryna vereshchuk, who was in charge of evacuations in azov, said this, but this was not confirmed. more than 600 people were evacuated and they promise to evacuate even more if there is an opportunity. on may 9, anxiously awaited in berlin, the german authorities renounced their special policy towards russia and began to openly support ukraine, including heavy weapons, is on one side, and on the other, there are now thousands of ukrainian refugees in berlin. at the same time, there are many russians living there, among whom there are supporters of putin who support the war. my colleague hryhoriy zhigalov saw what happened on may 9 in berlin. it was very special. days in berlin, the capital of germany, known for its freedom

, humanity introduced unprecedented restrictions so that may 8 was victory day. at any moment, the chancellor will speak with a video address review it is painful to watch how, 77 years after the end of the second world war, a group of forces again violates peace and law in the center of europe. you see how the russian army kills men, women and children in ukraine, turns cities into ruins and ashes, and even attacks those who flee, this day of victory is not like any other, olaf announced to the germans in shock that there is a war in europe again, and this time it was started by russia, an assessment with which tens of thousands of russians living in berlin are not ready to agree. the next day, may 9, they go to their separate victory day, mostly people go to the park 5

km from the center, that is, to the park, a huge memorial complex for the burial of more than seven thousand soldiers , in fact, the gigantic bratska made, which once a year turns into a place of celebration and personification of the russian peace of berlin military uniform, orders, even national flags are prohibited not to mention the letter z under which russian tanks are trying to seize ukraine or the st. george ribbon, a well-known symbol used by the russian propaganda in the administration of berlin is explained as protecting public peace. but in the great park, where opponents of the war also came, passions flare up regularly, a small child, this is one of the many actions. in general, more than fifty organizations applied for them in berlin, and now

at this one they speak against the war, but against the war in general for example, they don't want ukraine to receive weapons, ukrainian taras salamanyuk took the floor to explain the difference between war and defense, what to show what if they, what their position is some of them are wrong when they totally reject e-e aid to any parties to the war because if when especially if they are talking about anti- perleism, it is possible to clearly support ukraine in this situation now without but and and the further into the park the less space for nuances cheers dawns, military songs are also banned, but the police cannot quell the spontaneously gathered nato, they are retreating

to shouts of victory. they bypassed mainly the tenth road, and victory day was celebrated together with all of europe. on this day, on may 8, ukrainian organizations in berlin joined forces to support those suffering from the new war unleashed by russia. volunteers and charitable organizations gathered at this famous berlin market to suggest how to find housing get help get a job united after the start of a full-scale war in order to consolidate our voices and have some kind of more uh such a strong position so in berlin in politics, in culture, in public life , many here were affected by the ban, which also affected the national symbols of ukraine during victory day, but people are not offended by the germans, they are grateful for the support, another sign of support for the ukrainians, the mayor of berlin visited the event. while the

public participation in during the victory day events, the city canceled the celebration of supporters of russia lost in the park became a strange holiday of like-minded people with unchanged traditions expecting a restless and anxiety-filled day, many residents of berlin in general, they took a day off and went out into nature, hoping when they return late on monday to get back to the city that lives in the usual leisurely market, they remind the townspeople that life can and does seem to go on even before, but it has long been an illusion and that's all for today, the 75th day of russia's war against

victory day parade of ukraine in moscow at which putin explains the reason for his invasion. read all the latest news on our website bbc.ua. i say goodbye to you. see you tomorrow. good evening to everyone who is watching us. you actually watched the episode. bbc and now we come to the live broadcast of the direct channel and shared with espresso and my name is andrii saichuk, we will be with you until 12 midnight. and you can be with us. if you find it interesting and useful to listen to our broadcast, i hope it will be so because today, the guests will be very interesting to me and we can talk about current events, actually, we will not be ourselves , our guests will help us. by the way, i have some just in the studio today, yes.
