mykola veresen is with us journalist public and political figure is with us while in lviv and we are happy to see vlad yakushev commander of the marine corps of the armed forces of ukraine an expert opinion about what is happening on the fronts, in particular svyatoslav sheremet, historian, deputy of the lviv regional council, head of the memorial and search center, fate good evening i with the permission of all our guests and viewers of the government, yakushev was at the front and was already injured during this full-scale invasion. that is why he is now in lviv and was able to visit our studio. vlad, before the broadcast, i asked: can we, can you? can you reveal to us the details of how you were wounded, under what conditions? where did it happen? if it is not a military secret, you were given the task

of pushing the enemy out of the forest at the junction of two divisions of two brigades, that is, it was necessary to form a single front between them. the two brigades passed if the information that the kadyrivians began to occupy the forest, well , it is written only directly into this forest, they completed the combat mission, knocked out the part of the forest that was needed, did it, they waited for a day, held the area until the infantry came, leveled the front. we have to go back, tell us how the kadyrovs are really scary, it's the whole world because the russians say that it's just horror, the ukrainians beat the kaderovs as they want, the kaderovs are extremely mean, let's say that they started to run away when we they were attacked, the only thing that saved them from complete

destruction. they started shouting at us civilians, we will kill the civilians, and we had to stop the attack . raise the drone to look. reinforcements arrived and in fact. when we were told that there were no civilians there, there were already four times as many of them there, and despite this, in fact, we still held us for a day, there were 37 people, but we held this area , they could not knock us out, we moved on to president volodymyr zelenskyi's address today on vyshyvanka day, he addressed ukrainians let's listen to these few seconds for brave and free happy vyshyvanka day ukraine , we join in these greetings played a collector of ancient ukrainian clothing from all over ukraine is

with us on skype good evening to you, ms. roksolyan it already happens that traditionally on this day we talk with you in this studio at least last year it was like that and then last year we also talked about what the president looked like and his the wife then had small complaints about their clothes, in particular, from clothing experts, but today we saw how volodymyr zelenskyy looked good in such a themed green embroidered dress , oaks and acorns were painted on it, they say that this is a sign of such a strong imitation. maybe you can tell us a little more about the origin in general of this symbol, what does it mean? well, if glory to ukraine , the hero of the studio, ukraine, lviv, glory to ukraine, all of ukraine well, in fact, surely god heard my prayers , because, er, i was really worried about having last year's experience, and i really wanted that until the day of

vyshyvanka, our president, the current president, was decently and beautifully dressed in accordance with the ukrainian theme and ukrainian symbols, because the whole world is looking at us now, and in fact, well, we carry this culture of ours for sure in every moment not only culture but in our victory our struggle in every custom in every symbol in every act this year, there is no discomfort in the appearance until uh, the symbol of the day. this is really a symbol. well, mostly male power. well, it was not very characteristic of the acorn. well, but now the modern stylizations of the interpretation of our embroideries are helping

. what do you think is the main value of our vyshyvanka, because i thought about it today too, that after all, our vyshyvanka is ukrainian. it has a modern interpretation. it acquires something new every year . even spread all over the world and this is true , even this day is celebrated more and if you compare it with our enemy, the russians, after all, this kosovorotka of theirs well, it is not so popular, they could not include it in their everyday wardrobe there, what is the uniqueness of our vyshyvanka well, i think that, first of all, the vyshyvanka you can, the vyshyvanka has become a symbol of the state next to the coat of arms, the flag and the anthem, so all the rest of the countries of the world are probably limited to only these three symbols, and we still have our vyshyvanka as a symbol we can talk for a long time about this about the pro- about and

identity about the why it happened but in fact i think that first of all it is the need for identification when you see a stranger today, for example on vyshyvanka day on the streets of lviv, are there any of them? you don't know who she is, you don't know her political views, but she drools like this . well, on which side of the barricade is she ? it's a sign, but simply vysyvanka - it's very beautiful universal, because they are festive, they are festive , and it is very iconic and very symbolic. well , not to mention that sacred stimuli carry a lot of meaning, but i think that, first of all, people who now wear an embroidered shirt think exactly as i would say about a male it's just that

people have a need that even when they go abroad, there is a need to show that they are from ukraine, that is, vyshyvanka is one of those, well, the easiest, er, the easiest, probably er, such iconic ones, well, people also take t-shirts, but vyshyvanka is this one, otherwise and vyshyvanka is, well, very symbolic, very much a lesson. purely and very, very much thank you for these comments. i will also say that today i also met a lot of posts from people about how they put vyshyvanka in this disturbing backpack . after all, the war is still going on and we never know what to expect, and people put vyshyvanka in these anxious backpacks, because she would support them in these difficult moments, if they had to leave their homes, for example, and there are many such people in ukraine at the moment in confirmation that our clothes popular, let's see a selection of those famous people and politicians, in particular. and who today in

support of ukraine, including wearing our national clothes, this president of kalitva was like this , we see the president of the european commission, the head of the european parliament is also photographed in our embroidered shirt, and it's nice. this is how they demonstrate support for the entire ukrainian people, you see this phrase of stepan bandera that the time will come when, in response to the call of glory to ukraine, millions will respond to the heroes glory and we have already seen it, in particular, at the eurovision song contest, where everyone addressed us. glory to ukraine and all of europe, i know how to respond to heroes. glory, identity is important . identity is what distinguishes us from the enemy in the first place, because we are on our own land and we know what we are fighting for, unlike the occupiers

who simply came to invade. and why don't they themselves understand, except to steal something and bring it and sell it on the territory of the russian federation, returning to the immediate topic of the war. yakushev also returned to power, one more question clarifying that the general staff today stated that the enemy has concentrated on the donetsk direction , active combat is already taking place there, it is clear that there is shelling, but the main blow is there. how do you comment on the situation at the front, because we see that, on the one hand , it was analyzed but there is a risk that it may turn into a long, protracted confrontation, which will also be very difficult for ukraine, indeed , russia has now begun to feel the lack of modern technology, the power that was at the beginning war, there is a huge number and its number is decreasing, er, the number of combat-capable units has decreased a lot, and therefore, if it is predicted that they

are charging now on some areas of military science, on some areas, trying to make a multiple advantage there and at the expense of that, break through our defense somewhere, that is why it is really the most the heaviest battles are now the donetsk luhansk region, and there is no danger of a breakthrough. if it continued to exist, it was because the number of troops concentrated there. well, it simply cannot be compared with the ukrainian one. the only thing is that the ukrainian troops are motivated like god , they have started to approach this western equipment, they are already working on the front lines and with the help of, in principle , competent actions, if only by the military leadership of our ukrainian, the progress is very small mmm well, in principle, you can note the lack of a little bit of russian communication troops and some such well-

thought-out tactics, that is, they now have a wall of fire, this is to destroy all the artillery and aircraft, throw an armored group, a huge group from behind, and beat yourself up with infantry. well, but with such a stupid frontal such a frontal attack, well, the advance is very slow, but because of such they lost and how much they will still be enough. it is difficult to predict in the donetsk luhansk region, but they are already slowing down, many will come to a tangent, so to the top of the government they say about the importance of the counteroffensive that the ukrainian army has now launched a-a and what if what in the coming months can in principle determine the course of this war, namely even the ukrainian victory, of course we don't want to get ahead of events like that, you know, and this is our optimism, our optimism should be restrained, but

it is also important to talk about it because if we are winning somewhere and can do something, then we must also hear about it, let's listen to the speech of the minister of internal affairs of ukraine rostyslav smirnov. he was just talking about the possibility of this counteroffensive, i would even say that somewhere in late june, early july, our counteroffensive will already be very well felt very well
