have passports of the people's republic of ukraine, as well as a depot to russia what is interesting to ukrainians is that alleged hidden mobilization is also taking place on the occupied territory of the occupied crimea, despite the fact that hidden mobilization in general failed in the russian federation, they still found a way out of recruiting new soldiers , in april they organized a forced mobilization in the people's republic of ukraine, after that people began to hide and at the front, these soldiers scattered at the slightest shelling. the kremlin found a new solution to the mobilization of crimean traitors. in 2014, about 14,000 servicemen were betrayed by all of ukraine. and for for eight years, many of them have already managed to demobilize and leave the service. now they are being forcibly mobilized and replenished with them in broken brigades that are being rebuilt in the

crimea, and i would even say that the special piquancy of this situation is that treason is not subject to exchange, they pass under article 111- that treason and will be sentenced to 15 years in prison bombards azovstal, where our defenders are located, this is the latest message from the russian occupying power this is what it looks like, plans to raze it to the ground metallurgical plant, the russians do not stop attacking the infrastructure of the azovstal plant. this is reported by the american institute for the study of war, air and artillery strikes indicate that the remnants of the ukrainian defense are still at the plant despite the evacuation in the last few days. well, i think about this, we will talk about something else now with our expert mykola malomuzhem, this is the former head of the foreign intelligence service of ukraine, a general of the ukrainian army, an adviser to the president of ukraine, glory to ukraine, mr. generals, glory to the heroes

greetings. so, the key question is probably mariupol , together with our defenders. we understand that this information is now subject to confidentiality and non-disclosure. but maybe you would share some such things that can be announced on the air of our information marathon . the main task is that they really not only rejected the forces, but also the destruction of the enemy, this is a huge amount of equipment, and it is clear that during the execution of the task, a lot of ours and defenders were killed and wounded and well, it is clear that in this situation weapons are often without ammunition and therefore in this situation after the decision of the supreme command that the model of their exchange was adopted but because of the corresponding and no guarantees - this is also the un the red cross is not

official. the republic of turkey participates in a number of other powerful international organizations. but it is clear that russia, when you agreed to the option of only moving to the territory of russia and then exchanging for our servicemen, this process is going on. closed we don't want to disturb him in general, the only thing we can really say about the last events today is that the international press is already separated and that russia continues shelling the azistali. what does this mean that part of the fighters really followed the scheme of this program, which involves resistance, well , according to the preliminary data, they stand firm that this is their position until the end, and this is their right and this is their will. russia understood that they wanted to show that they had not only captured mariupol . them and here this object is already directly under putin's control, he asks every day questions about

its destruction and whether to kill the fighters or force them all to surrender that even this process, which they seem to think is going positively for them , that's all show on snakes created a whole information company against ukraine against our fighters, but it doesn't work either. therefore, in this situation, we see that the stability of our who for this period when they are offered a real option of exchange of saving lives they choose death, but he the stress of ukraine, the interests of protecting the honor and dignity of the armed forces of ukraine and ukraine as a whole, mr. general of the army. look, you mentioned the influence of putin on the specific planning of a military operation . the maximum of the major general, here we see what is the impression that he is trying to draw here and there all the arrows of the direction and so on with his own hand, how

will the russian war strategy change now, because all of them are, so to speak, guderian the plans crashed on the concrete and the screams of our fighters and our defense well, i will tell you a little operational information from our sources regarding russia , the leadership of russia and putin himself, here he is, i will say directly, a great deal of irritation and confusion from the fact that nothing is given neither the first stage nor the second stage, we are already talking about the third stage, he already planned after that to organize a mass meeting, say a call for what to oppose not only ukraine and seize our territories to kill and already in this measure and that’s just right the third stage of the confrontation with the west is the most unsuccessful stage and what we see all stages lead to its destruction, therefore in this situation he tries to draw somewhere to show separate directions until the ninth, it did not work after the ninth, he

determines exactly, well, from such places this is donbas , donetsk region, regions - these are geographical consequences, the territory of luhansk region, mariupol, especially, for example, zaporizhzhia region, kherson region, with the aim of creating such republics, nothing works, and putin does not understand where he is oriented. why he well, let's welcome this to the chief of the general staff and information, in particular, from british intelligence showed that in recent weeks, russia has released military commanders who are considered to have acted badly at the beginning of the special operation, this is lieutenant general serhiy tisel, who commanded the elite first guards tank army, and was disqualified for failing to capture kharkiv vice -admiral igor osipov, who commanded the black sea fleet of the russian federation, was most likely removed from his position after the sinking

cruiser moscow back in april, the chief of the general staff, the same gerasimo whom you mentioned, most likely remains in his post for the time being, but it is not clear whether he retains the trust of the president of the russian federation, all this will definitely lead to the fact that the russian army, moreover, did not flaunt its capabilities making some specific decentralized decisions, but now, uh, this definitely won't happen even in the conditions of this war, uh, please tell me what is good for us and what is not good for us. i don't know any global strategy of the russian army in this war, the russians already have more than 10 killed generals, it starts with the commanders, for example, the corps commander with you, the army commander, the chiefs of staff and the army command, six generals have already been displaced. in addition to those we have named, respectively, already displaced from various positions, this is also

the army commander of the chiefs of staff, he even appeared as a miner, not for nothing, because in this situation the generals did not fulfill the basic tasks, not only that, this uh, you can say the cruelest janitor who formed a uh, huge repression from syria is already creating in ukraine and he is fulfilling the task. why is this information of ours of foreign dimensions, and then the border itself and the operation mean that the genaltet does not fulfill the corresponding tasks and he cannot fulfill them? putin does not understand that he has encountered a big problem for himself of a strategic , political, ideological nature and precisely the main thing is military and military, this is manifested in concrete practice, when the motivated people of ukraine defend themselves, no one has a chance, let there be 10 of the most talented generals, nothing will work, that's why putin already he sees that he does not trust them, it is a failure because putin he is not a military commander replied well, i know very well personally that this is the ice resistance that does not know how to say so neither manage nor an operational unit

nor this is any political and economic situation, let alone a military one, so in this situation there are no chances even now they will break through, we directly say the directions in donetsk, luhansk, in the kharkiv region, still try to hold some positions, to strengthen through the crimea, e.e. one strategic direction, i am talking about the direction there is no tactically, there were some advances, but today we are already carrying out counter-offensives, and this is of course important for putin, that in this situation, no e format works, we need to make some other decisions, what to do, mobilization, how much we gathered, we just said that 2 500 e-e soldiers - this city is ridiculous, i am raising military units now, those who were really somewhere in the reserves or were beaten, have no experience, especially about military schools, now carry out an early termination accordingly training and being sent to the front, they don't know how to fight

, they don't want to be afraid, crimeans what you mentioned are those who are conscripted, but they are generally fleeing from crimea, those who have caught this situation do not want to fight and will definitely run from the front, that is, in this situation is huge, although we are not because there is a large community and the armed forces, which have tanks and howitzers, and the like, but against the scrap, as we say, there is a powerful receiver, today there is already a powerful weighted force of our armed forces of ukraine, a new reserve has already been prepared accordingly, and it is already hundreds of thousands motivated cheesy servicemen - this is a new weapon, a technique that today is already showing how it is at the front, that's what our colleagues, my uh, servicemen said, that there is a very heavy air force or artillery, especially if we have now received all the help of the artillery, we will be talking about 40-60 km and they are playing and hurricanes are hitting at 30-40 km, we will test them at any point, their howitzers, their hails, their missiles, and in this situation, we will defend new directions and then

go into a counteroffensive, but this is planning operations in the east, especially in the south, where you can surround the relevant group in a few days and they will flee from these regions, because we will conduct an encirclement full of 25 deaths, if i have already talked about such a format, but this is the future, i think, weeks , months, why then ask now for negotiations and for the minister of defense smirnov and for the minister of foreign affairs, they have already asked about the negotiations again from ukraine today literally like this yes, we have seen this information also mr. general of the army extremely important signals are about the first negotiations between the minister of defense of the united states, austin, and the minister of defense of the soviet union. as far as i understand, general gerasimov, the chief of the russian general staff, was removed somewhere because, as far as i understand, he was planning to kill this very operation with his fingers in ukraine, specifically

gerasimov. well, accordingly, he did not take part in that conversation what do you think those signals mean, in particular, smirnov's statement, the negotiations between him and the autumn, first of all, we see what uh-uh, we are already even gerasimo in which was the basis of responsibility planning, he was accordingly suspended he was not even on the ninth of may, this did not happen when the chief of the general staff is not on the parade, it is already accordingly in disgrace, he is suspended, everything is clear, if you are speaking from the outside, but realistically, he really did not cope with the task relatively er, here is the price i know very well that this is a powerful general who is really decisive and extraordinary, he did not come out for nothing to say so to our ed, this is one of the channels of proving the powerful position of the usa and the western world, they pointed to two positions, the first situation if you use nuclear weapons accordingly , a powerful blow will be received at a preconceived moment, even just at the moment of preparation for the launch, and

will destroy the healing once and for the second time, stop the war in ukraine, you rule from the territory of ukraine, accordingly, under security guarantees, conclude an agreement. running to make concessions to us, that is why they are trying to enter the negotiation process through various channels and in order to show that they have already acquired something there to preserve some territories, for example some preferences, some possible conditions that we achieved something there in ukraine, we do not accept this, we accept today the complete liberation of the territory, if not, we will fight completely until the destruction of all enemies who are on the territory of ukraine, and our allies were able to, but 43 ministers of defense of the participating countries are also nato and the western countries specifically indicated that we will really help ukraine because in a real military plan to oppose the aggression of the russian federation, this is clearly stated by a powerful bloc, this is something that

no one in history has been close to this already nato and finland are advancing, sweden is already an encirclement, just to get rid of russia, here is another model that fully shows that putin what he sought, he sought 10 points yes, mr. generals, we agree with you, but here is also information from our ukrainian internal, so to speak
