tries to be on the side of ukraine, but on the other hand , there are sometimes issues with national governments and especially with individual political forces that are not ready to take risks because they are sometimes afraid that the electorate will not understand, for example, the issue of the expansion and inclusion of ukraine, that is, not all europeans, e.e., citizens also distinguish, for example the candidate status is already full membership, and populists there can sometimes use it and intimidate people that look , if we are now, tomorrow ukraine will become a member of the european union, and they have a war, they have problems here, therefore, politicians and some may be afraid of this and not take such steps, plus there are sometimes no contacts with these or other political forces that are quite influential, for example, the social democrats do not have political party partners in ukraine, and this negatively affects the dynamics of relations and there is skepticism what is sometimes present also affects because

it is the second largest political force in the european union, it is worth working on it, yes , it is understandable, but since this issue is being discussed so lively today, can you explain to us what happened well, it is clear to every average citizen what advantages ukraine will receive in the case of granting the status of a candidate for eu accession. how will ordinary ordinary citizens feel? and what is no less important, what obligations will official kyiv take on? well , first of all, it is more symbolism. that is, it is about symbolism . about the recognition by the european union and politicians and citizens of our desire to become part of a full-fledged part, that is, to accept the rules of the game that are directly applicable to the european union, this is the first and the second - unfortunately does not give us guarantees that in the near future we will become members of the

european union in two or three years, that is, it is not written anywhere that after granting the candidate status, negotiations must be started, the negotiation process on accession is just the next phase, which will also be decided, and it is not excluded that there will be we are holding a referendum, that's why it's also important. and one more question that concerns the economic, financial aspects of military and technical assistance is also a signal that we need to work more systematically and more deeply ukraine needs more funds for recovery and to bring us here, you asked about the obligations of direct obligations, it does not carry, for example, under the association agreement, but when the negotiation process opens , each separate area, each separate niche must be brought into compliance with european standards

standards, legislation, regulations, a lot of other work, which we need to do and strengthen our institutional capacity, democracy, then the result will be just right, you say a year, two, three, we are talking about different dates of ukraine's accession to the european union but what are our further prospects, because according to the words of, for example, the french state department for european affairs, clement bon, the issue of ukraine's application to the eu may take 15-20 years, but where are the guarantees that this period will not increase to 50 years, for example, they? well, it could be that way, it could be us we know examples when some countries there, turkey in general, has been in a similar status for many decades, plus or minus. yes, but it is not part of the european union, although there is a different context, i will not delve into it. there are countries such as the serbs, which has been for more than 10 years. candidate but is not a member of the european union

. i would not predict uh there uh in terms of uh five years seven eight or ten because no one will tell you this but you should be prepared for the fact that the conditions may be our advantage and the conditions must be formed both externally geopolitically, when there are no challenges of problems in the european union itself for expansion, and internally we must win . then this and our, well, this is our membership, it will be much more realistic on this and we should work on it. if before, by the way, there were several years ago, nobody even particularly talked about the candidate status of ukraine in the european union, then now we can actually get it. i just know let's put it this way, when there is an internal kitchen for

the european union, before even they did not want to record any documents in the documents about our desire to become part of the european union under article 49, and now the context has changed. therefore we should continue to work. and we have only one alternative, which is the european future. bohdan, thank you very much for the conversation. thank you for your expert opinion. specialist in international affairs, bohdan ferons was in direct contact with us on we continue for eight years in ukraine, we had to look with fear at the russian side, not understanding what they are thinking in the kremlin, and now another neighbor, belarus, is rattling its weapons near our borders and keeping everyone in suspense, including the residents of the border region and the military, the day before they announced another military exercise that will last a month and what it will ultimately lead to, no one can predict how they live. see what the

villagers in the areas adjacent to the border are worried about. see our report. we live here under the gun. i always expect that there will be some kind of attack. ms. valentina lives in the village of samara, from here to the belarusian border, give me a hand the local people know that the military is on full alert, so people are on guard all the time. lviv near the border. how are you worried? you know me. i'm a backpacker . i'm worried. it's true. there was a moment like that somewhere. a couple of days ago, i slept for three days, wearing socks, a column of military equipment was recently recorded in the belarusian village of divin, but they say unusual activity until you noticed our km and the border of kilometers from us. letter, he is already a belarusian woman tells the head of the technique, i have never heard them say that those who were in bucha were here, that they were standing here. well, as they said. well, if we were

to evacuate people 15 km away, then i was not even going to to leave here, where to go, and what to give up and go no matter what. this is how we live here, despite threats from our neighbors. people in the border villages try to live a normal life as much as possible . on sundays, fairs are held on weekdays. i don't know how we will collect because there are no diesel generators, let 's pay some attention to the village, we dig, we garden, we harvest. so we are working, we are worried, everyone is worried, but i think that the victory will be ours, the locals have many relatives and acquaintances living in belarus, but because of the war, they say, now mrs. larisa and her son and husband are fighting for ukraine, i

say, but we are terribly worried here, as there is still no communication, there was no communication, i was thinking, what can i earn, and our rudnya in russia, in belarus, i have no relatives the days are gone. they said that we ourselves are to blame. the husband said that it will be fine. i will come and we will live on. people want to be worried, but they do not panic. they started to bring us here. we already had it until the 24th, you know everything is great, it means that they have outgrown and the same thing is possible here, so we will be afraid, but the situation is under control, i think that we are ready to give 200 to the marriage case, the next ukraine is not rejected by belarus, and

the military fighters know that putin is putting pressure on lukashenka and although no provocations are recorded by all the russian special services and the russian army, they are on full alert. how does it feel at home? how much will it last for? here, no one can say, obviously, if it is so final the ultimatum from putin is that he will surrender and this order of heaven but if it is not we started this freely, we are fully ready to know how fast and effective everything will be ukraine has almost no chance in belarus to advance to the heart of the country, the residents of the border region assure that basically everything was like that and forests are roads everywhere dug up, everything is mined, it is clear that yes, it will be easy to come here, oh, the border with belarus in volyn remains inviolable during this time, they managed to strengthen the border here, they dug trenches and equipped engineering structures, he says the head of the military administration of the region

monitors every day, there is no need to panic, but we must be ready for any scenario, because we have already given a neighbor, there is no need to relax, and there is a war going on, the locals are also preparing for war, but above all they want peace, that god is for everyone let all the little old man and all live and wash be snowy sydoruk mykola vasylyuk details tv channel inter volyn region marathon only news with faith in victory ukraine can win and protect itself from the aggressive intentions of its neighbors and for this we need modern weapons against missile weapons and the first requests for them to european allies were made by official kyiv long before the full-scale invasion, the president repeatedly emphasized this, according to him, the width of the front line is now more than two and a half thousand kilometers what volodymyr zelenskyi said in

future in the future of the european union, of course the russian state would not be with it if i was just calmly watching our foreign policy successes. they are increasing the gas pressure on europe again. they are again increasing the shelling of ukrainian positions and peaceful cities. today they hit mykolaiv today. at least one of these fakes is capable of working defense of donbass we keep and by the way in all international contacts i hear excited about the actions of our defenders, the world really wants to learn from the ukrainians how to fight and how to

win during the 112 days of this war, the ukrainian army proved that bravery and wisdom on the battlefield, together with the ability to tactically outwit the enemy, give a significant result, even when the russian army is significantly superior in numbers number of soldiers and equipment, of course we will do everything to block these advantages of theirs so far. every day i fight for ukraine to receive the necessary weapons and the necessary equipment, but bravery, wisdom and tactical skill are impossible import them, our heroes have signed another decree on awarding ukrainian soldiers 284 servicemen were awarded state awards, 60 of them posthumously eternal memory to all who died for ukraine eternal glory to each and

every one who defends our state glory to ukraine approaches to the first capital of ukraine, kharkov , are held by our armed forces. however, the military provides scant information about the current situation and only over time disclose the details of military operations. kharkiv was covered by almost all the news agencies of the world. today, the commander of the battalion of the 92nd separate mechanized brigade with the call sign philosopher told about the first days of the full-scale invasion, when our army men stopped the russian troops with fire 30 km from kharkiv. on the 25th, the 6th mechanized company stood at the

stariy saltov border. the city of kharkiv also had two tanks. in the morning, i heard that he was running low on fuel in the tanks, he didn’t have enough ammunition. well, accordingly, i made a decision. i sent them a fuel tanker with fuel in their direction, and sent deputy stela to them. the deputy from the mpz went. also , in order to raise some morale there and the fighting spirit of the personnel, when they arrived, they came out in sixes at me. to meet him, two tanks, tanks jump out from

the front, they will say that it would be on this column, they begin to dismantle it, and the sixth company and at that time, an inspector came out, about 25 units were destroyed, reinforcements also approached them, and in the plans of my unit, the units were forced to retreat by other routes and the company retreated to kharkiv, completed the task of the attack, but lost, unfortunately , unfortunately, well, from the 24th to the 25th, it was the main backbone of the battalion, there were servicemen, but not even 70 under the contract probably more than 80%. these were people with combat experience, but when it all started there, yes, when was it, well, every day i go to the formations, i talk to people, then here are the employees of some service under the contract, they say, you know, the zone is the ato zone,

we had such a kindergarten now. in fact this is very serious and people take it seriously to protect the skies of ukraine such a task is faced by ukrainian defenders every day how do they cope and most importantly what do they do to fight against the russian invaders in the air to our army about work one of the most effective anti-missile systems of the portable stinger was told by oleksandr, a defender from the 30th separate mechanized brigade named after prince konstantin ostrozky, the portable anti-aircraft missile system and the fm 90-2 stinger is a weapon that was handed over to us. we are cleaning the front, there is something to do with this weapon . i like it very much. i like it very much. the infrared targeting head, the alert system, the vibration and the sound

of the target recognition system are very alien. an effective thing. i think we had it. well, somewhere in 2014, it would be much freer in the air than now. in fact, the stinger is a weapon of the cold war, because it was adopted as early as 1981, but it is a weapon that was ahead of its time in terms of effectiveness and practicality it is ahead of the soviet and russian analogues for comparison well, i already said that the function of the needles and the stinga is the same and the limits of use are also the same and the same conditions too but to work and the same, that is, the goal - to call the subscriber, here the goal is to reach the subscriber, well, on a smartphone it is

more interesting and faster. so that on a push-button phone , everything is convenient and effective, in general, more than 700,000 of these portable anti-aircraft missile systems have already been released stingers are in service today in more than 30 countries of the world, and the demand for them is still high, although stingers are designed to shoot down air targets at low altitudes, primarily airplanes and helicopters at an altitude of up to 4.5 km under certain conditions. can hit foreign targets, as well as cruise missiles , such cases during the russian-ukrainian war were not the only stinger. as they say, our fighters use all available weapons against the enemy and are not going to surrender, because they are defending their land. at the end of the hour, we offer our already traditional music section under with the slogan, we give the enemy a noose, we broadcast

ukrainian miracles to the nakach, with us, our bandera and investigated, katya is being killed in moscow, everyone run away from the forest to the man, let the song keep kharkiv because of the screams and sir, no one sings you peter, the wind is blowing twigs, we are a muscovite, not love is wild cheremshina ukraine will be free, the route animal is already waiting for the ukrainian time, we are our bandera , dad, everyone is killing the muscovite executioners, everyone run away with

generations lives on, we are fighters fighting for freedom. glory to all , money, ukrainian heroes, honor and glory. unbreakable law and order has changed our work every day. the dedication and courage of three hundred of us are almost at the entrance. there was heroism, we must be there, we must glorify, we will now try to break through, thank you, the fruit, law enforcement officers are collecting a deadly harvest today, ukrainian pyrotechnics, hundreds of shells and rockets, thousands of mines, and we will clear each a corner of our native land to run

barefoot on warm paths for our little ones to grow golden wheat again under a peaceful ukrainian sky we will prevail we will pass we will win the bristles news together we are strong we will convince paragray we will win that you are not news together we are strong unconquered cities of ukraine pavlograd an industrial center with a cossack past there across the river the secret waterway of the zaporozhian cossacks ran through the wolf after the october coup , the unr army led by pyotr bolbochan drove the bolsheviks out of the city, albeit for only two years the pavlograd anti-communist uprising became one of the largest in the 1930s, during the occupation, the invaders set up a concentration camp for

prisoners of war and a ghetto in the city, where more than 2,000 were destroyed. today, pavlograd is shelling out, but it continues to help everyone who needs it, because the people of pavlograd remember pavlograd unconquered as a group of lighter occupiers we are going now directly to the krid position where the fighting is going on, the trip will be the most dangerous during this time, with god, they became the heroes of barasyuk films, at the beginning of the war, i forgot that i am an actress, i work a little different, now i keep the information front of the police, we prepare a sandwich in the kitchen, we feed, we clean up, you are very athletic, but good, but each of them is playing the disintegration of the history of their country, they

definitely did one thing to help, dressed, you have such money on the map, to support our main task - to survive at any cost, to win "."

we work with faith in ukraine. in the application, i am dmytro chistyakov. once again, i congratulate the russians. there is no place for them in ukraine. for almost two months, the enemy has not crossed the airspace under the control territory of ukraine because it avoids the loss of its aircraft fleet. as the 500 targets of the russian army refer to enemy missiles and drones, airplanes and helicopters. however , the enemy very often flies into the temporarily occupied territory of ukraine

helicopters and attack aircraft demonstrate their attitude towards the occupier and are enthusiastic, but the unconquered residents of mariupol in the city intensified the resistance movement, in particular, due to the information of the adviser to the city mayor, petro andryushchenko, at the parking lot of the equipment of the ministry of emergency situations of russia, two tractors and three large trailers suddenly burned down, the cause of the arson, and on the eve of the celebration of russia day , queue humanitarian worker near the shopping center was fatally stabbed in the back by an unknown person
