capitulation. well, maybe by calling it something else, you know, this issue is very complicated, and i just want to say that it is important for ukraine that it be obvious as soon as possible. that is why we need such support and such weapons and such actions of the economic, this sanctioned push, so that this confrontation on our territory it did not last there for long periods, but as someone predicts, i am sure that everyone should be oriented to the fact that it is necessary to throw out the occupiers from ukrainian land as soon as possible, it will be faster and cheaper for the whole world, we must act decisively, do not do it now no pauses if russia now makes and they will most likely make some kind of operational pause in the military plan, then it will only be a gain of time for me this is obvious, therefore, there must be

quick actions er and then we can talk about the fact that after that we need to consolidate the situation security under the control of ukraine. i don't want to rush ahead, but once again i repeat what i said. i think the best scenario would be a quick decision on ukraine's accession to nato . putin's steps. that is, well, this is how i see the situation and i emphasize once again that i do not want to talk about years. i have hope and confidence that there are such scenarios that will end already this year. with mr. valery and before that with mr. bondarenko today we have more positivity , we believe that the situation will improve

primarily due to the strength of our army. good evening to you good evening to vasyl i also congratulate the viewers of the espresso channel, for the next few minutes we will talk about what is happening in ukrainian sports with ukrainian sports during the russian-ukrainian war and start the sports section russia destroys ukrainian cities leaving no chance for football football football club mariupol will not play anya in the ukrainian premier league next season anya in the first league of ukraine the head coach of the team told this edition of fanday ostap markevich, as you know, due to the russian invasion and the war, the season in the ukrainian premier league ended prematurely, and the result of the championship was the consolidation of the teams as of the 18th round, the last one before the war, respectively, mariupol finished the championship of ukraine in the last

16th place at the beginning of this mari very seriously affected by the war due to the full-scale invasion of the russian federation due to the massive shelling of the city by the russian army, the infrastructure facilities of the club were damaged, in particular the stadium and the training base, according to the head coach in the next season, the mariupol team will not participate in any championship of ukraine, and the reason for this lies precisely in the consequences caused by russian aggression. i know that mariupol will not participate in the next championship. pause i don't know what will happen next maybe something will change contracts with football players are suspended as of today and although ukrainian club football has been forced to pause

during the russian-ukrainian war, some ukrainian footballers, star footballers, perform on european football fields, and andriy yarmolenko said goodbye to the fans of the english team, the ukrainian entered the field in the 95th minute of the match against manchester city, and after the match, yarmolenko, along with his wife and sons, said goodbye to the fans in the stands during his farewell to the fans, andrii held the ukrainian flag for the malotobians, it was the last home match of the current season, and yarmolenko's contract expires in the summer and the football player wants to leave the club, he has already announced his intention on social networks and thanked the fans, as is known in london, yoke yoke does not have enough game practice, yoke is what english fans call yarmolenko in the current season, yarmolenko scored one goal in 18 matches of the english premier league, i will add later the end of the match against manchester city and the ceremonial events yermolenko met with

ukrainian refugee children with him the football player took gifts and gave them to the children i think this is a wonderful wonderful gift for ukrainian children the ukrainian saved his first penalty as part of ral, it is about andriy lunin, the ukrainian goalkeeper played successfully in the match of the 37th round of primara against cadiz, the episode happened in the 61st minute of the meeting of justice for the sake of the penalty in the goal of vershkovy - this is the fault of lunin himself, the goalkeeper knocked down 36 -year-old al vorona gredo and the winner of euro-2012 as a member of the spanish national team volunteered to carry out the sentence and lost the duel to andrii lunin, he hit the ball in the lower left corner from himself for lunin, this is only the second match for real in the championship last week in vershkov, there was at least a match against atletico madrid, and i will remind you that real madrid has already become the champion of spain ahead of schedule, so it can

afford to experiment a bit with what, and you can explain lunin's exits, and that's when in the match against athletico, the ukrainian failed to cope with a penalty kick performed by karasko, the national team of ukraine became the champion where at the olympic games in brazil, for the first time in history, our athletes won 138 medals, 62 gold and 38 silver and bronze, according to all indicators, this leadership in the overall standings represented the national team 179 athletes in 15 sports, in particular in badminton, badminton, basketball, volleyball, judo and karate, the top three winners also included the united states of america and iran. this performance of ukraine at the deflympics is an absolute record for our national team . ukraine won 29 medals in swimming and 20 medals in athletics . we join in our congratulations to our delympians, we wish everyone

victory, i wish you victories, dear viewers of the espresso channel. with this, i say goodbye and pass on the word vasiluminy yevhen pastukhov about how sports lives in a time of war well, we will talk now about how the war is in general serhiy zgurets my colleague co-presenter as an expert defense express with me i congratulate you i congratulate you we will start with a conversation on the topic that was already discussed today in the diplomatic component and now in the military component today took place the meeting of the heads of state of the members of the csto , the organization of the collective security agreement, and well, actually, what was said about what was happening there now, everyone will tell putin, yes, we will go to ukraine , we will loot here together with the russian army and to fight, and frankly they even told him to his face that you helped, so what do we have to demand then? this means president pashinyan, the military component of the odkb forces, how

big a threat is this and do you believe that these armies will one day come to our borders putin's will. well, in fact, such an idea looks rather illusory because, on the one hand, the potential of the odkb is a distinction, on the other hand, the politicians who govern the countries that are part of the utkb understand that supporting russia in the course of hostilities in ukraine is in fact, energy sanctions from the united states and european countries, none of the member countries of the otcb are ready for such a step because they are thinking about their future, except perhaps the president and belarus, who you remember at one time said that there would never be an attack on ukraine from the territory of belarus, but we can actually see that belarus has become one of the bridgeheads where military equipment was used, where the airfield is used and there is still a certain threat.

don't forget lukanka again, the report says that russia should not be left alone in the fight against nato, but behind this statement there is also a clear pragmatic interest. it is located in the city of zyabrivka. it is about 30 km from the ukrainian border. now all the formalities are being resolved and exactly how russia will pay for this base in belarus. lukashenka at this meeting zyabrivka it's good that not zubrovka i just think that it would be very cool if 30 km from the other side already from the ukrainians, well, from the side of ukraine to the belarusian border , a nato base was built. well, there is a russian base in our country moreover,

there was a right-wing former us ambassador to chaly who said that it is necessary to speed up the steps to join nato, relatively speaking, this is precisely the most optimal way to obtain security for our country. well, now let's talk about what, well , in one word, we will not see kyrgyz troops here on the territory of ukraine, thank god. well, actually, now let's talk about another very important topic. a few days ago, there was a conversation between the leader of the head of the pentagon and the russian defense minister, sergei shoigu. well, we discussed it very sparingly, because there was very little mr. serhii has more information about this conversation, which took place for the first time during the entire war between russia and ukraine because the russian federation did not want to enter into negotiations with the united states in the format between ministers of defense and such a telephone conversation took place on the 13th and in fact the short effect of the meeting

is that the minister of defense was informed about various things that were discussed in this conversation, but the details were very few, i received some others, let's say so the details of this meeting were unknown at the moment, but from people who were familiar with these aspects, it is interesting that you can say that in the fall, he raised several issues at this meeting that are directly related to the security of ukraine, first of all, the withdrawal of the russian troops federations at that border, which were until february 24, testified that the united states and european countries will continue to provide strong support to ukraine, and it was also said that it is necessary to find options for evacuation in azov

, too. -e shared this information were rather strange because it was about the fact that russia is ready for a long war with ukraine, also for some reason the topic of biological e-e laboratories was mentioned about the fact that ukraine, as it were, together with the combined states will work on biological weapons that can be used against russia, this is actually the topic that was heard today. putin's speech at the odkb from the point of view of biological laboratories. in fact, it was said that russia will go to the complete destruction of the fighters who receive defense in azov, in fact, this conversation

is austin and that he could be commented as deaf and dumb because there was no healing reached, but still the american side proposes to organize telephone talks between the chiefs of the general staff gerasimov and the head of the us ocean of the united states well, regarding azov and mariupol, we still believe that certain movements have begun there, was the statement of the regiment commander azov denysa prokopenko and we will only wait for information on whether it was possible to evacuate the wounded and save the defenders who, well, in this situation now. let's talk about the situation on the fronts. i read the opinion of some of our leaders today. it's too early to say that the tension in the war zone is really not decreasing. and where is it now? the biggest thing is the

tension and what are the results of the confrontation , please? well, to speak briefly. indeed , today president zelensky congratulated the 127th brigade that went to the border with the russian federation. of the russian btg even already came to the territory of the russian federation and this offensive even forced the russian federation to transfer part of the troops from the izyum direction, which today is the most saturated from the point of view of the russian military group, to the kharkiv direction. that is, there is a completely positive situation there from the point of view of our prospects for raisin, a significant amount of action is concentrated somewhere in periwinkle and slavic they are somewhat

suspended. but it is interesting that yesterday our aviation was quite active near the raisin and ensured the destruction of russian equipment. here , by the way, we can now see a map showing the previous ambitions of the russian federation, moving directly from below with forces from donetsk and forces from the raisin to reach the slavic region. in this way, we can ensure, as it were, that large circle of encirclement, but with this plan, for now, we will say so and i think it will not be possible to be implemented completely, but the situation directly in another area, starting from the raisin e liman rubizhne e-e belogorivka lysychansk and severodonetsk, this direction remains sufficient difficult because these red arrows are the expected actions of the russian federation by which it is

trying to move its forces and i think that in the next two weeks the main efforts will be concentrated on either encircling severodonetsk or lysychansk or killing the road that leads from lysychansk to bakhmut. but if we take into account how steady we are defending the defense because, in particular, there is e . it took the russians a month and a half to carry out this operation, which means that in the near future, i do not expect any significant advances by the russian federation in this arc. and by the way, the weather is on our side, during the next 10 days there will be rain and clouds and that which significantly complicates the use

of aviation and equipment on terrain that does not concern roads, i think that this will slow down the movement of the russians so that in the next two weeks the main potential forces of the russian federation will be concentrated directly in the direction north donetsk, but victory for them should not be expected. victory will be behind us. by the way, we are very, very much helped in the fight against the enemy by pictures from space and in general aerial reconnaissance here and our partners are working, our troops and also satellites. please tell me, but not with us yet we will now talk about the situation in the south and then and then and then we will move on to then we will move on to what i voiced the information about the satellite space images from the

combat zone was very interesting we talked about the east of ukraine in the south, what is the situation of the khotinets metro there, we discussed with our guests, yes, something is happening. well, about the south, the main risk is that the russian troops are starting to entrench themselves in the zone of the zaporozhye mykolaiv region, and in fact we are talking about what we it is necessary to ensure an active offensive in order to knock out the russian troops, but the issue of an active offensive by the way , this was recently raised by the former commander of the nato joint forces in europe, who said that in order to avoid a protracted war, ukraine needs to decide on a quick offensive in two directions, that is , to directly push back the russian troops in the

donbass and cut off the forces in kherson. army and weapons and logistical supplies, the main thing here is that the map, which was analyzed and presented by one of the foreign experts, shows the probable offensive of our troops in the kherson direction and on the same mother from the mountain we just see the possibility of action directly in cutting off the troops around the raisin and cutting off the russian troops from the supply line of nakopyansk, but these plans can be implemented if ukraine receives weapons in significant quantities, this is what wesley clark said we we are talking about the fact that the hope of receiving military assistance for the training of our units

should provide the prerequisite for successful offensives of ukrainian troops in these directions. tell us what are the main problems in the offensive of our troops in the southern direction, and because now the main problem of both the ukrainian and russian armies is somewhat similar, for a long time, the personnel are engaged in combat operations and it is necessary to ensure rotation, and this means that in two or three weeks, both the russian troops and the ukrainian troops are forced to take a certain, let's say, respite, after which the next one will begin. by the way, the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine writes that the occupiers are being reinforced by special forces and air defense in the slobojan direction and are preparing to offensive units rise, that is, they want to break through there, although i understand that there is a sufficiently powerful group on our side. well , now we will talk about an important

story for in this war - these are space images from satellite images, which of course help us now to effectively destroy the enemy but i know that now satellites work not only for the armed needs of the armed forces, but also for the needs of ordinary citizens . rightly said mr. serhiy rightly said rightly so olesii sinskyi is the head of the company twiss, which was actually a pioneer in establishing contacts between e-agencies that ensure the receipt of current satellites and the use of these satellites and their images in the interests of the armed forces. when hostilities began, the situation changed somewhat for e-e companies began to work directly with the ministry of defense of ukraine with our intelligence, but there are certain nuances that indicate that the use of space images for both civilians and military

needs remains extremely relevant relevant has its own nuances i wanted to ask you what is important to prepare for you to do first war in the interests and territorial defense and the armed forces and civilians good day, thank you very much for the invitation. to thank foreign partners who, well, in particular, the countries of the west, who directly very quickly provide data to our military and various special services, who receive this data directly from them, er, as much as possible quickly, our mission is to provide satellite data for the civil sector of our country's economy, in particular, these are public organizations, public organizations,

various organizations, primarily, urban territorial communities, volunteers who use satellite images for various tasks, in particular, territory monitoring tasks, yes for example, residents of mariupol who leave the city, as well as from various other cities, for example, they use raisins. they ask us to provide satellite images of their homes what is happening in their territories, what destruction of buildings is there, what is located in the adjacent territory , i.e., such tasks that relate specifically to the

assessment of some destroyed assets in these zones , e-e, primarily, satellite images are used for e-e reconnaissance, for reconnaissance and the location of the enemy's position, as well as for the planning of various operations of a military nature, satellite images usually show destroyed infrastructure in the first place, as well as various losses of the enemy administrative today you cooperate with the territorial defense you had a project when you provided pictures for free for tero e-e especially at the beginning of hostilities does this initiative continue like this place from the beginning from

the beginning of the war we collected we announced a fundraiser and collected with the help of volunteers about 50,000 dollars for this money, we were satellite monitoring with sky pancake satellites and also partly with maxara satellites with a higher resolution from 30 to 50 cm per pixel, that is, these territorial defense received from us new high-resolution satellite images that helped them assess the situation, which is now the main advantage of satellite photography - it is, after all, large areas of the territory and when we receive these large areas there, let's say in a few minutes it is possible to obtain several thousand square kilometers of the surface and accordingly direct unmanned

aerial vehicles to exactly those specific areas that seem suspicious for development in these pictures, this ensures more effective use of satellite information thank you, mr. oles, i would like to ask you just one thing. and please tell me how our partners are possible, with which they also give us information, not uh, satellite images, is it possible to cooperate with them in some way, conduct consultations, maybe exchange experience, how do they evaluate our, well, not your specific work , and help in this work as much as possible and give an opportunity to learn something new and use some new technologies, please. the fact is that we have a very uh very powerful school of analytical and uh in principle, to use the world experience that our military specialists use and very

successfully, in addition, even our structure of the intelligence department can provide its consultations and ukraine in nato on some nuances because we have a war as it has been known since 2014 , and during this time satellite reconnaissance has acquired a very powerful meaning, thank you very much olesya olesya yasynskyi, the director of the twins company, was in touch with us. thank you for your work. i wish you success in this direction, i am with you mr. serhiy i would like another topic. let's talk for a few minutes. well, look, a very interesting statement was made by er-e-e regzhepu and her paraphrase was heard and he says that it is impossible. don't be offended. he made a statement regarding sweden and finland's accession to nato. we know very well what is now possible for with the help of erdogan, this evacuation is taking place under the influence of our defenders, we believe that everything will be fine. they

will end up in ukraine or in a third country. received by russia when it said that we will not give nato in ukraine. well, it's a very kind of opinion game. i think that ertugan is really playing his game in this situation, but in fact there were explanations from the head of nato that turkey actually does not object to the entry of new countries into the alliance, but we understand that there are certain political frictions regarding courses and attitudes towards the kurds. between those countries, as he says, the terrorist leaders of the residents are trying, so he considers us painful issues directly for erdoğan, but from the point of view krutistan and their leaders there in finland, in view of the needs of turkey in the alliance, these needs are much greater at home that after losing his play, he will

still play in the choir well, i will remind you once again that today there was a statement from the commander showed denys prokopenko that they are carrying out the order of the top management, we understand that we are talking about evacuation , he writes that this is an evacuation well, there in the territory of novoazovsk occupied by the enemy so far, in order to then hand over these of our fighters and aspirants, and well, there is almost all the advice in principle further that is they will not be in the clutches of russia, we will keep our fists and believe that everything will be a success but this is the story of our courage on the one hand, on the other hand, the history of diplomacy, which should show that it is as effective as our mariupol warriors, so you will really learn about it our broadcasts and follow the information, it is very important that all people are saved, this is the gold fund of the nation, in fact, and many of those people who were in the base, they simply, well, they simply endured non-human suffering and they simply died because of it, and many people, by the way they died there, we will just remember them in the end

and may god accept all those who died for ukraine and the civilians who died from enemy shelling only in syrodonetsk. somewhere three people died from enemy shelling. well, serhii zgurets, my co-host of the express expert-fest, was with us thank you very much mr. serhiu tomorrow there will be information about the situation in the war again name my name is vasyl zima dozatora farewell to you take care and now for your attention a news release from my colleagues from the ukrainian editorial office of bbc news armed forces of ukraine they have reached the line of the state border in kharkiv oblast russian missile strikes on odesa mykolayev and the nato alliance predicts victory for ukraine this is the 82nd day of resistance about the main thing in the results of the day in the broadcast live from london
