the russian protection of the struggle of the russian and its electronic warfare is being interrupted and that means you are breaking through. that is, we can work in this direction and then we can ask the europeans to give us not just another 150 km, let us give another 300 km and at the same time not to curtail but to continue our own uh, the development in this direction, you see , we have such missiles, they are serious, the development is the same, the war has slowed down everything so far, olena , we don’t have much time, only attempts to ask such a question , i read it on the mirror of the week and agile rustam zade of such an azerbaijani military expert, by the way, i remember that in the first days of the war, he wrote in english, and even i didn't like it when it was translated, i didn't know who he was, but he wrote there that all innocent people will not take anything in kyiv and, in general, they ukrainians fight like elon musk and they fight like marshal zhukov, that's why they lose and in fact, all his

predictions came true, but today he says something else. he says that the west does not give us, deliberately decided not to give us enough weapons so that the ukrainians quickly they persuaded the leaker and they decided to manage or manage the escalation, these are the words of biden and these are the words of kirby, these are the words of general mir, which means that they do not want to allow russia to turn this into its own domestic war with mass mobilization and a big fog. i want sakura and a meat grinder after all, to somehow minimize the losses, well , that is, to somehow try to end this war as soon as possible , but in this way, somehow, he says to manage this escalation and so on. he has such a phrase that at this stage, the military way to defeat russia it is impossible for ukraine, said mr. rustam, what do you think about it? i will say yes. well, the military way is really to win, that is, to destroy all the russian

equipment . put the entire russian army there, you just need to change the cartridges, all the games are enough to shoot it first, russia must break economically only when it breaks economically, then it will be our victory a-a this economic breakdown will be a-a after of the front, that is, when we reach a certain number there, when a certain number of legs will be destroyed there, 100%. aa is highly modernized or the newest types of equipment. what are they relying on and when will they end in this cruise missile? what are you among? you see when you break down there? what do the americans and europeans appeal to in their opinion? the weapons are really cool, they are full, they are the maximum, with a range of 300,500 km, so this can provoke e

well, first of all, they are afraid of shelling there, if we can rummage through the independence palace in minsk , ask lukashenko where the offensive was being prepared for belarus there, according to demodedov, somewhere there, check how the control tower there works , and secondly, they are not very afraid of the flow of migrants if this war goes beyond the borders of ukraine, they are afraid that it will be an extremely large flow of migrants in the russian federation from belarus who will go to the right place to the countries of europe ukraine to europe and so after the coronavirus it was very difficult there are still ukrainians arrived and it became even more difficult for them, they have a lot of it there and our migrants are provided there and help ukraine, but we understand that all of this is a lot, there is not enough money, because it is to get it within the limits of this company, which is there, but not to give it to the ukrainians to lose and to win ivanka entered thank you for this inclusion and to

which you quoted how everyone spoke to the diplomat oleksandr hara eh who actually is eh works in the ukrainian eh in the national institute of strategic studies so who is wrote a large article and gave an interview to the present time in which he actually analyzed the theses that russia is the center of defense strategies. i apologize to oleksandr hara - a ukrainian diplomat who spoke about these narratives that the russians are tying to the world and which they actually tried to promote through their lobbyists at the world economic forum in davos, the main theses are that the west is not ukraine, that kyiv will still lose because russia is extremely powerful , and that the promised weapons will not be given to ukraine, but all these

fakes are easily disproved, so we just know that in fact, uh, world uh, if this design is such a collective event, it works like this, it is a system of collegial decisions, and sometimes it takes a little more time to activate them. let's talk. congratulations to oleksiy. i also congratulate you. let's start with fresh news. you also wrote about this in your telegram about russia's preparation for referendums and the unification of the occupied territories of kherson and zaporozhye. regions, as well as the separatist so-called dpr and lpr into a separate federal district of russia, medusa wrote about this with reference to sources in the administration of the president of the russian federation. how, according to your observations, have putin's plans changed in ukraine on the 109th day of the war, and what does this

salami tactic look like updated for by your observations, what is putin achieving and how is he actually trying to approach the issue of ukraine against the background of his already numerous military defeats? i congratulate you . happy russia day with the bottom of russia with the bottom of russia - this is more suitable for this day because they really broke the bottom once again and uh um well this celebration you know all normal countries celebrate hands doing something good this country celebrates by killing raping and destroying himself, everything around him. well, this is such a country. now, as for your question about the plans, there was information about the fact that kiriyenko is the author of the plan. kiriyenko is the former prime minister of russia, now for the first time the deputy head of the office of the presidential administration.

came out with such a program, an article in the newspaper and izvestiya means that this is all we came, we came seriously for a long time, we will not go there, uh , and we do not abandon ours, well, how come they do not abandon theirs, and the parents of those tens of thousands of russians who have already died soldiers or bodies for electrons are not taken from ukrainian spaces eh well, that is clear, but he stated this programmatic goal , which means that a referendum is ahead, and hmm. then there is information that they even want to invent such a quasi-ukraine, that is, you know, they not can achieve and defeat ukraine, so, well, then let's invent ukraine, that is, they want this is the dpr, the lpr, the south of the zaporizhzhia region and most of the kherson region, which they still

control, to unite in one attack on the name ukraine, there is something called ukraine and it means to join all of this to the russian federation, or they have plans to rebuild the soviet union at the end of the year, because 100 years later, at the end of the year, it will be like this next reincarnation of the russian empire was created, and the empire of evil, and that’s what putin wants if to rebuild it, that's why i think it looks like it's not reality, this article is today's kyrieka in the news, she confirms exactly such plans, and it's obvious what this means, well, actually, you know the time, they ask . russia is not going to leave some of the occupied sumy region and part of the zaporizhzhia region, this means that there is nothing to negotiate about at all. and that's all, and that's why here only on the battlefield

. in principle, it is becoming more or less clear that putin will need some kind of victory for which he will sculpt in the form of some kind of country that they invent simply on the territories occupied by them. that 's all. i don't know to what extent this question will be addressed specifically oleksiy well, i think i need to mention this, ah, and we have very little time left in ours, you know what we are talking about , ah, the popularly beloved spokesman of all ukraine, arestovych, recently somewhere said about the fact that in his own words, we have to give citizenship by various russian cultural figures, not only cultural ones, that's what he said that it is necessary. so what did they say that if ukraine renounces

russian culture at all, then it will be a big country with a small culture, it undermined at least it undermined my- my my facebook my social networks they are just full of anger in fact , people, well, people were really offended by this, someone like there , ms. vira ageeva, the professor says something that reminds , in particular, that russia does not have, for example, its own literature and culture, the renaissance of the age, there is no age renaissance they have their barrack culture in general, this is a very new country, it starts right from the 18th century with peter the great whom putin worships so much well, just reminding this frame what do you think about it? there is something that seems to me that mr. aristovych should somehow comment less and a little more. well, maybe then it would be better

, but obviously we are, and i will definitely give my assessment . ukrainian culture is absolutely self-sufficient. what kind of nation are ukrainians, that's why you know how to measure yourself. we have more culture there than french or german or anyone else. we have our own culture , it is absolutely self-sufficient. we have world -class assets in literature and music and in the visual arts, that is, in all types of art . it is obvious that this is our culture, which takes its roots directly from russia, and with the great influence of byzantium and that huge culture, and russia - it's just like that on our tree, it's like that vitka, what kind of branch is there

grew er from this common tree, well, from the point of view of culture, they gave the world there. no one argues with this at all, but the problem of their culture is that we do not see that it gave anything to me, but to their society. because somehow it seems that their culture a culture that really has prominent figures there, but somehow it was not reflected at all on the people who live there because they are completely barbaric and we are once again witnessing this. this barbarism is murder. it is that not a single person there, well, you cannot accept and accept that. i repeat once again, we are not, well, we currently have little dew, we are not peasants, we have a completely self-sufficient culture, it must be developed, it must be studied, you can be proud of it. who is an adviser to the head of the office of the president of ukraine. that is, this is a

serious position and i urge him to get involved in the development of his own culture and its evaluation and its dissemination. this is what ukraine has and can and should do. well, that's all. and everyone can to join this and do some good work . for example, i created a network of goncharenko centers, which , thank god, is now working, which are cultural and educational hubs, and i can tell you that in the small towns of ukraine where we opened in small cities and towns, there is a fantastic level of people and culture, we held exhibitions of local artists, photographers, readings of local poets, writers not only local to us, and serhiy zhadan came here and there and so on , but the very fact that even in small towns people of ukraine are generally unknown, but they are absolutely

carriers of a huge culture and a very high european level, and this is a fact. another question for you. i read your blog and thoughts on the topic. what kind of plan is putin developing for ukraine and we understand what it is about and hunger in the world so, that is, these criminal actions that the russian army is carrying out in ukraine have a place in putin's global plan, snyder writes, well, first of all he wants it is clear to push the world to some reckless decisions, so to lift sanctions from russia, he wants to cover it with a wave of refugees, and this is just throwing problems in the style of stalin, so putin resorts to

food crimes and blackmails the world with hunger, and snyder also had an interesting thought a few days before before that, can a small non-nuclear state of ukraine, compared to russia, win a war against the powerful great nuclear russia, and snyder says that it is possible that the entire history of the last century shows that nuclear states can lose wars well, in the last few hours, the question has already arisen whether russia will not fight nuclear ukraine tomorrow, at least such and such a context threw the world genealogy sikorskyi, a member of the european parliament into a polish politician who stated on espresso that after in 1994 year, according to the budapest memorandum, ukraine gave up its

nuclear potential and instead became an independent country within the borders established since the time of the ussr, russia violated the memorandum and now the measure must provide the opportunity for ukraine to protect its independence, the west has the right to present nuclear warheads to ukraine, sikorsky said on the espresso broadcast, what do you think about this, about these prospects, well, first of all, timothy snyder is a really outstanding historian, really outstanding, i know him personally and i can say that he is, well, really an outstanding person and a very person who does a lot in order to explain in the western world who ukrainians are, what and who, about our state, tell about our history and why it is so important to support us, i am extremely grateful to him for this grateful he draws parallels absolutely correctly and this is such a classic style stalin did the holodomor in ukraine used hunger as an instrument of terror

and its suppression of the will of the ukrainian nation and now putin is using goals in order not to destroy the world to get chaos millions of refugees in order to increase prices in in the supermarkets of europe, and people are not satisfied with this, and there was a change of governments. there was less support for ukraine in general, less time to deal with the representative. what is this russian zombie empire ? absolutely right we all see it perfectly with you and understand that as far as the proposal of rodoslav sikorskyi is concerned, in general, i definitely did not let ukraine down, so to speak, in 1994 we really gave weapons that would have protected us completely and no one would have ever invaded ukraine and we gave it for empty guarantees, which turned out to be nothing, well , the pro-russian federation was simply speaking, but unfortunately, the guarantees from the united states and the

united kingdom turned out to be simply declarative, so definitely from the point of view world security, the world is now obliged to help ukraine, if the world does not want you all other countries to simply understand that the only way to protect themselves is to have nuclear weapons accordingly, because the goal of the world is to prevent their spread, but what is happening now is a message to all countries that only with weapons you can defend yourself against a nuclear-armed country. i don't think, to be honest, that it's realistic that someone won't give us a stand for weapons, it completely contradicts the entire strategy of the west, but the very idea that we need to be reminded all the time and i i am grateful to mr. sikorskyi, who, by the way, is a great friend of ukraine, so that he raises this topic, reminding us of the sacrifice ukraine made for the sake of world security, and now we are left alone

with this satanic enemy, and this should be reminded of the world, and it is right approach well, but to expect that someone will provide us with nuclear weapons. well, let 's be realistic. air defense systems and missile systems of salvo fire with long-range missiles, and we will be grateful for that. thank you, mr. oleksii. thank you. congratulations on your studies. good day. by the way, i wanted to add, literally, what mr. goncharenko said about what he actually mentioned, the budapest treaty.

one such aspect that few people know is that they refused to give us 185 years of ballistic missiles, and there were missiles with a range of up to 700 km. well, together we gave them away with nuclear warheads , that’s what they say, but we could have linguistically, it is better not to give them away, not even to mention nuclear warheads, you would now have missiles that would theoretically reach 700 km well, it’s just another moment uh-uh, this is it, this is about this moment, and i don’t know if mykola wants to add something here to this replica, if not, then we will move on well, look, western europe was really talking about this then, the western world tried with all its might to disarm the former soviet republics , there was such a point of view that the western liberal order had won. that's why there are threats from the east. well, he from moscow will no longer be like that, and the main point must be let's say this well, to ensure that regime of non -proliferation, not only of nuclear weapons, but also of more conventional missile weapons, so that

these technologies do not get anywhere to the dprk sooner or later, and that is why it was done that, after all, in fact, these soviet weapons from kazakhstan, from ukraine, and from wherever you want to take them out and eliminate this potential, so really then we are not only talking about the order for weapons, but what else, let's start with the visit of the head of the european commission, ursula von der leygin, let's start this part of our conversation actually the head of the european commission visited kyiv this weekend . well, we know that june 17 is the day x for ukraine, the day when the european commission must present its opinion. the status of a candidate for membership of the european union or not, mykola, how can we sum up what was said by the derline fund in kyiv, let us remind you that the main thing that the

funderline actually said is that the assessment is at the finalization stage yes and of course, the determination of ukrainians is noted by the whole world now, but ukrainians have -e homework and in fact, european cro- countries want to see concrete steps that ukraine can already declare regarding the strengthening of the rule of law and those reforms that it is ready to carry out and should carry out, in particular, in the fight against corruption and ensuring human rights and freedom of speech. it simply emphasizes what we knew before the inquisition. on the one hand, there is a consolidated position of the european parliament regarding the fact that ukraine should be given an old candidate. on the other

hand, we know that certain states of the european union are against this, there was talk about denmark, about sweden, and you know about the netherlands , and they explain their position by the fact that well, they recognize the donation that ukraine is making now for the protection of a united europe. yes, but in at the same time, they announce that ukraine still does not meet the standards of european standards. the main issue is, of course, the issue of corruption at that time in this final stretch of our path to candidacy status, the position of the ukrainian authorities . in the coming week, some such demonstrative decisions should be made that would allow the lawyers of our positions in europe to convince our creditors that ukraine is going in the right direction after all.

by the way, and still it is necessary to get this cream from the candidate and provide it in the near future. well, in my opinion, it stood out for compliance with the standards. well, they really have gifts on them, but at this stage they should not objectively stand in the way of providing ukraine with this particular candidate if honestly , this guy is already a candidate. well, what does the european union not commit to in particular ? after all, turkey has had that status for many years. not exactly some kind of national decision, and therefore, in my opinion, this is the task of ukraine's candidate status, the present moment. it will have to be a political decision, a political recognition of the ukrainian future of the european future of ukraine, this is the key moment, and this is it. in my opinion, everyone in europe should understand yes

, we have problems with corruption with the rule of law , it is necessary to carry out reforms. but this is already a matter of a road map, which we will normally implement, but only after obtaining the legislative status that we have earned, objects to us in these conditions and europe must send a clear signal to the russian federation that ukraine is europe, no one refuses to do so, and on the other hand, yesterday, it seems in an interview that podolyak is also a spokesman , i don't know. who is there , one of the spokesmen of the government, let's call it that, i'll tell the simple one, and he said again, there, in, in, oleksiy tarasova about the fact that, first, elect us, and then he will deal with the implementation . we are fighting here and then do business implementation, however, two hours ago, ursula von der la was on twitter, and finally there

was a video with a text where she talks about the results of the visit, and here again it sounds that it is necessary to make reforms in the way of, you know , the rule of law and so on and so on. and i don't know how much it is. let's say if we don't see it next week, or when, i don't know any of these significant decisions, what this will mean in principle. well, it just seems to me that we are now entering a risky story like this hmm, you understand some kind of bluff on the eve of a very important decision. ukraine thinks that it has good, good cards, relatively speaking, we are fighting here, we are suffering here. but is this a good approach and why not really take these few steps? what would you say? okay, we see that you are definitely democracy,

you want to be a democracy. you definitely want to be a country with a free market economy. you definitely want to have the rule of law, as the free media said, the appointment of the head of the sap and so on and so on, you all know what ford is talking about. fonderland said uh where caresses again everyone knows which way do something do you understand really certain steps can and can be taken but on the other hand in the conditions of martial law in all aspects we in principle, even legally, we simply cannot implement these apparently solutions which from they are waiting for us in europe, well, that is, you also talk about freedom of the media and the rule of law, again in the conditions of russian aggression, these issues are unfortunately forced, they take a back seat in the conditions of war, no matter how negatively we perceive it, but certain censorship of information in the state should be hiding information, well, this is simply a reality

that we now have to face, and that is why there are a lot of such steps at the last moment, well , in the picture, there is no need to rush from side to side and try to be very stylishly straight to show that we have achieved reforms because everyone understands that europe needs consistent work and consistent work. we can see what we have done or not done in recent years, and here with some such radical actions tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, we are this image we will not change. the maximum he can do is really show understanding with their position, but it will not have such a radical impact on this position , so in my opinion, this is the point of view that, after all, give us the status of a candidate now, and we will be consistent later to work within the framework of the already clearly developed road map, it is

rational in principle, again, the candidacy is not one more time, the european union is not obliged to us, well, the membership is to be given in a year, in two years, this is only one of the stages of promotion to membership. indeed, it is precisely based on the situation that we have to get it now and as if otherwise. this will be a very big device for russia. if europe now demonstrates that it is not ready to grant ukraine such a status, even an interim one. thank you mykola for mykula, an expert of the national institute of strategic studies was we are in touch. we are waiting for at least small steps during this week, which is left to the conclusion of the european commission. well, at least espresso can be turned on in the digital air in order to demonstrate the willingness to give to work as an honest media in ukraine and well, let them already appoint the head of the sap, we will tolerate us in the end, people still watch, uh, on cable networks, watch on youtube. who wants to search for the truth?

he finds it and signs a petition in support of espresso. we have to constantly keep a qr-code for to warn on the page of this petition from your smartphone don't forget to support us to support democracy in ukraine well andriychuk maria gurska thank you and see you at the next meetings right now we continue our informational telethon and iryna koval is already on the air ready to present her news release from the editorial office of espresso greetings maria and thank you i congratulate you and you and the audience with the green holidays and literally in a moment i will tell you about all the events that are happening in ukraine and in the world 15th in ukraine news time on the espresso tv channel in the studio of iryna koval, the russians are shelling donetsk region in a day, two dead and 10 wounded civilians are reported to the regional military
