will stop at ukraine will go further and this threat has not completely disappeared, despite the fact that russia is a little depleted there in human resources and technical resources no less. it still has enough weapons with which it can threaten the seventh civilized world, and this is what now especially a european country announces an increase in contingents such as so , for example, is it about the deployment of some additional forces? this indicates that the western democracies have begun to slowly wake up, so now there is really a global, uh, global question of who will win democracy or autocracy well, we understand that the struggle will not be easy, and at the moment it is the most acute, so

the place of application of this struggle is exactly and is ukraine, so the question is exactly the biggest argument that weapons are provided to ukraine because many leaders saw the light of day at one moment and they understand that ukraine is holding back the very advance of russia on their territory, and this is a great argument that plays on the side of ukraine, that is why they give us weapons in the first place because they thus protect themselves from a possible invasion, well, according to the question of mr. kulak, returning to the problem of belarus. yes, we understand that, on the one hand, the number of battalion groups is not enough, on the other hand, maybe the russians would simply throw additional forces into the belarusian castle in a timely manner, that is, how seriously should we consider the prospect of lukashenko entering into an open war

, this is huge for him challenge because er hmm there is information about er not combat capability lack of morale of the belarusian army it is actually divided 50 by 50 you can say only 50% combat personnel are ready to take part in hostilities, it is obvious that belarus is currently completely transparent to ukrainian intelligence and we receive even through open channels more information about the movement of military equipment through the territory of belarus . -others are silent although she really cannot teach the signs of a cpu test, she writes in a different way that is conducive, and it is also worth adding the appropriate and so russia can transfer its patient-tactical groups, but their

the russians do not have enough even for some kind of special offensive in the donbas, therefore, if the strengthening of the belarusian group does happen, it will happen with insufficient forces for an effective offensive. so we can say that lukashenka and putin should be drawn into the venture because it will be an inferior offensive, it will really be a distraction and tying up the ukrainian armed forces in the north of the volyn, kyiv , zhytomyr regions and so that we do not transfer reserves to the south or to the east, well , in particular, to the south, where there is a certain promotion therefore lukashenko understands this and is trying to delay it by organizing various trainings, organizing mobilization events and then showing his russian partners that, as a matter of fact, it was not possible to

implement a sufficient number of people, the creeping mobilization worked, the cadre of military personnel who were not counted on is replenished by 10,000 soldiers, it is not implemented, it is necessary more time, the territorial defense on the ukrainian model, which is currently being deployed in belarus, also does not keep up with the timing for the formation of 80,000 e the contingent that lukashenka talked about. that's why it 's like this. these are lukashenka's games, but on the other hand , they are really pushing him, and i don't rule out that the belarusian armed forces will ultimately be involved in the conflict, will directly cross the border line with ukraine and become involved in the border strip in this way, restraining and binding the ukrainian troops, but what will this lead to, it can lead to the fact that the belarusian unit formed in ukraine among opposition-minded belarusians will be able to take participation in this war is to cross the border and then there will be

talk of liberating everyone from the fascist lukashenko regime by the forces of the belarusians themselves with our support, this may be the internationalization of the conflict if the belarusians do not go to ukraine, and such an option is also possible involving the belarusian armed forces in military operations in lithuania for example, to secure the corridor, it may not even be an infantry unit, it may be military aviation units, it may be the involvement of radars and deterrence systems, closing the sky, for example over lithuania for the russian planes who would welcome to kaliningrad, they also talked about it, that's why lukashenko will still have to play his role in this adventure. from the time of his collapse as the head of belarus, there is such a

possibility, a possibility or an assumption that lukashenka will be entrusted with the task of extending the front and pulling back our groups at least for some time, maybe not for a long time that direction, in particular, very briefly, brief reflections and about the alleged epiphany, as viktor švinchak said, of the european leaders regarding what the russian federation is doing, and how it was all being prepared, former german chancellor angela merkel said that she does not consider her decision to allow the construction of the nord stream to be wrong -2 and that somehow they put ukraine in a more vulnerable position vis-à-vis russia, i quote, i believed in changes not through trade but in connection with trade and with the second largest nuclear power in the world as a whole offshore from the current chancellor also justifies merkel's angelic policy, but reproaches her for an economic decision, in particular for the fact that it

contributed too much to the concentration of the energy post, the issue with the russian federation. the question of the components of the gas embargo there remains open, although it is probably only nominal. do you think he should be there, viktor? i think that russia, on the contrary, will blackmail itself. western countries, it has already started to do this, it is starting to disconnect some countries from energy carriers and not energy supply, this means that russia will use this mechanism in order to put pressure on certain european countries. well, i think that the strategy is to wait for the conditions there elections in the united states of america, wait for the onset of

winter and start active active negotiations with european countries about freezing the conflict. i think that this is now the goal of moscow in order to regroup, gain strength and go again go ahead. in short, mr. vitaly, your reflection agrees with the fact that the time to the heating season is really delayed and this will be the argument of the so-called russian energy diplomacy on the fact of the analytical war against the european union. there are countries in europe that are ready to give in and we do not know this at all. it is hungary in the first place that receives those discounts on gas and energy carriers and similar things, really europe is not able to get rid of dependence now to introduce a full embargo with the

governments of the same scholz and many others the countries of central and western europe are putting pressure on their business, who believe that the war is not their business, that it is possible to wash away the aggressor, eh, and eh, the economic losses from the loss of cheap russian energy sources are not covered by geopolitical preferences and gains, which are not worth their losses, supporting ukraine is therefore a question the seventh package is really being questioned, i don't think that there will actually be a full-fledged embargo on the supply of energy carriers to the european union, some european leaders will not refuse the cheap gas and we have to work with this, also regarding the comments you made about merkel and schultz, i would like to note that the exposure of the german changes about the

existence of powerful lobby groups in the merkel government and in the schultz government, the russian interests of kasprom and lukoil taras are stirred up they are already well beyond the boundaries of good and evil and their influence says despite these all shelters are still maintained ugh well accordingly p viktor we understand that everyone has read the interview with the secretary of the national security and defense council mr. danilov yes and he made several very important and resonant messages, but i was struck by the message of the confrontational plan, it is about, so to speak, the environment of the head of the presidential office, one of the gentlemen, he described that i remember him when he was still jumping on yanukovych's stumps, what does this really mean, that is, they are starting to talk about mr. danilov, so to speak

the clouds are thickening and he is, so to speak, getting ahead of himself or he was just caught a-a i think that globally he is right because de facto commenting on military issues requires the military to comment on them and we have a shortage of uh, military doctors, you see that even on our television, usually military people comment on military topics for some reason, uh, people who, to put it mildly , have no status and are therefore not responsible for anything , but they are already popular, those surnames are used by all of us video, as for danilov himself, it really seems to me that now his role has fallen somewhat and he is trying to

remind himself of himself. well, we understand that stump jumpers also have certain tools, in particular, it is about access to important and not the last people in our country, mr. vitaly. how can you interpret danilov's public démarche towards him, after all, it is not just the secretary of the national security council who is removed by the decree of the president, it is a certain group of interests to turn people like hajduk, who were actually the beneficiaries of the zelenskyi regime itself. therefore, it is an influential group of interests if it starts voicing certain dissatisfactions the politics of the bank, or rather its speakers, this means the conflict that exists in the environment of the authorities during the

war, it is very dangerous, on the other hand, to remove danilov, but now, well, no one will do this, and it is obvious that we are talking about the fact that the same er, podoliak and and some other speakers where they won a number of statements and e-e initiatives proposed initiatives that came from the secretariat of the nsdc, respectively, there was such and such a reaction of danilov, this is not yet an active phase of the war, but what is happening there, the contradiction is not accumulating, it is intensifying, we see how the secretariat the national security and defense council plays along with the unscrupulous as it takes some speakers and, excited by the secret, they play along in the information attacks on the bank and that's all and that doesn't add optimism in the evaluations of the effective actions of the ukrainian authorities no well, this is

actually a very dangerous story, we understand that in the current situation, the appearance of a wedge in a basically more or less monolithic power environment can have certain consequences from the other side . so to speak to endure or suffer from these or other ill-conceived statements of people from people who, in principle, are not responsible, well, they are responsible for the result, and danilov is responsible for his own, for his own plot, and all the more so, that is, tens of thousands of lives. er and podolyak, they played a role there for the first time and a month. that is, we will belittle them. they reassured. yes, i have a population there. now er, we are still returning to some er

constitutional and legal field. the advisors of the chairman the office of the president is where you can see the functional duties for which they are responsible and from what we look at the functional duties of the head of the president's office, do they have access to military secrets, these are all very open questions and they are more rhetorical and in the end, when i am here with vitaly i also agree that it is very dangerous when different factions really start to fight each other during the war, they constantly said that the main thing is that the opposition does not fight with the government, but here the government itself has no reason to talk about what is inside the government some such processes are starting, and we must not forget that our supreme leader is also at the forefront of all this . i would like to hope for the balanced position of the president of ukraine, it is now

very necessary for everyone, in fact, and, well, a project of some kind of wisdom in the sense of who to rely on, in particular in your decisions and who to surround yourself with. a short and i hope constructive inclusion with oleksandrova oleksandra ustinova, a people's deputy who is currently in the united states in washington, if i'm not mistaken, oleksandr greets you good day well, the united states can consider recognizing the russian federation as a sponsor of terrorism , and whether this decision has really matured in the states, now we will conclude with observations and the main thing is what are the practical consequences of this. you know, i am talking now with colleagues from the united states since the first day of the war, and in fact i regret that this decision was not

was adopted at the very beginning because, you know , if such countries as, say, cuba are recognized as sponsors of terrorism, the russian federation is not. well, it is difficult to comment on why this is critically necessary for ukraine, because then we will have the question of which, when and how quickly it is necessary to impose sanctions on countries that work with the russian federation or russia itself, because as soon as a country is recognized by the state as a sponsor of terrorism, it is automatically a country , well, it automatically has such a status. it entails huge legal consequences, that is, let's say any a country that works with

e.e. russia. this is e. everything is of course let's say this does not automatically entail the consequences of sanctions, but 10 times any country or any company will think about whether they want to cooperate with a terrorist, in addition, it will significantly help ukraine to get the weapons that we are currently receiving from the united states because it's one thing when weapons are given to a country that is, let's say, a friendly country to the united states, it's another thing when these weapons are given to fight terrorism, because i know we know that after uh after september 11, when the united states will be attacked attack completely changed their rhetoric and their attitude towards terrorists, accordingly , for us, this is now a key decision that needs to be made that will help us with the supply of weapons and with the imposition of sanctions on the opinion of public transport.

ukraine from that side, because we have a national sport in ukraine, so to speak, wait from the west, there from germany, from the united states . say as much as you like, adopt laws that could really limit the presence of various so-called pro-russian elements in ukraine, and now it is actually primarily about what ukraine should do. and i will tell you that ukraine has taken all the steps in this regard. the verkhovna rada has made appeals to the united states and other countries more than once, starting with recognizing russia as a terrorist state and ending with recognizing that the actions of the russians in ukraine are genocide. we appealed to many countries of the world, some of them heard us. but you

must understand that unfortunately, even though it was recognized as a terrorist by a country sponsoring terrorism by other countries, the united states is still holding back on this decision for a while because they understand all the legal consequences that it will have. here is the question right now. we have a lot of things that we should do at home right now. and also, but the question in this plane does not lie with ukraine, and this is primarily what the combined tripods should do . they say that the chimeras have a chance to double their number i'll tell you, yes, we need to not double the khimrs, but have 10 times more, because we have four khimars, which we were promised at the time . what a range of action they do not have 70 km, as they give us now, but three times

more because only in this way we will be able to knock out the rashists from our already territories, ah, but you have to understand that the united states, unfortunately, has now taken the position regarding which mars they will give us in small parts that's why last week we had quite a few meetings at the highest level, from nancy down the street to the us state department, we tried to convince our colleagues that we need to give now a lot more weapons because small let's say yes, the portions that we currently provide them there are less effective and you know i still want to hope that they heard us because three months ago when we asked for hobby guns, that is, howitzers that are now coming to ukraine, we were told that you are not even dreaming that this is a weapon that will lead to escalation. putin will press the red button and the third world war will begin. now everyone has understood that putin is a man who can sit this

frightened dwarf in his kremlin only to scare everyone, and he scared finland there, that as soon as she will say something about nato, then he will attack them, he threatened the united states that he will press the red button if you give him at least some serious weapon, you see , nothing happened, they gave us howitzers and that's all putin is still sitting in his kremlin and does not press anything , finland is already clearly announced that she will join nato this year, nothing happened. and i understand that our western partners are increasingly beginning to understand that this is just a frightened dwarf with a napoleon complex who can only scare and therefore we need to support ukraine more, which unfortunately now he values ​​his own life, he has become a defender of this civilized world, this is an extremely important story. well, speaking of your meetings, perhaps it is not worth publicizing everything, but the feeling will appear now. well, until the lend-lease has not worked

, we understand that this is an unpleasant story. well, but there are logistics and so on, will some such intra-american decision still be adopted, yes, regarding the increase in large aid, it is about heavy heavy caliber large ah, there are such feelings, and the only question is how much the supply of weapons will increase because we can already see what i will tell you honestly as a person who for the first few days spoke and convinced the americans that we need to start helping now, no one believed that we would endure, everyone thought that within 24-72 hours ukraine, unfortunately will be completely occupied, which will be under the control of the russian federation now, the kind of coverage of ukraine that i see now in the united states and there is no faith, no, i have never seen it in all the years that i have been coming from the united states. the question is how quickly

now, after all, we are talking about our serious weapons, of which there are not so many in the world , because you need to understand that they are now coming to us and collecting them all over the world because the world has never prepared for such a large-scale war since the second world war. therefore, now when they began to understand that it is necessary to bring all the serious weapons that are in the nato countries to ukraine, because this is the last, the last border, they say, the last border of the civilized world, then there were problems even with logistics, but you know that the most interesting thing is that the problem is not in logistics in ukraine, because when we tell our colleagues that it takes us 20 kopecks to deliver the same howitzer or other weapon to the battlefield in poland, they are shocked, they are shocked that we can do it so quickly. and such things when we show them that friends, the problem is not ours, not our

logistics . authorities to the authorities of our native ukrainian and we like everything from our side, there is no clarification from them, but such questions are very often they are formulated under the influence, i will tell you. it is not surprising that the same russian federation, because they are bad about it works very well, you know, er, i remember how, er, recently the question of what is needed in ukraine in order to provide er, the next package of aid, including weapons, you need such and such an inspector of the genre that is, a person who will supervise so that weapons are not stolen from us there, so that everything is fair and honest, and when i was asked my opinion, you know, i honestly started laughing, i say, you know, you are

strange people. we have been asking you for three months to send your generals who could sit in embassy and see what is actually happening and in real time understand what where and how it is used and how effective it is for us for 3 months we as a country are asking for what e please send and supervise the very intervention in the conflict, against which the russian federation, well, directly participating in the conflict. and you know, the problem is not that we are talking about a person who would sit in the embassy in the american embassy, ​​in fact, clearly understood what is happening where and where with weapons, after all after all, i think that for a very long time they did not believe that we would win, and only now do we know.

will speed up but when we say well but when we see such certain statements about what needs to be done so that these weapons do not go anywhere i say you know these weapons can be exclusively destroyed because we are open to war but when they tell me that these weapons can be somewhere i don’t know, there is some kind of corruption, something else has been stolen, i’m sorry, as a trophy in the hands of the enemy, this happens ah, ah, you know when we say that weapons can get as a trophy , we have not yet had a single case when serious weapons provided to us by the american the party fell into the hands of the enemy, secondly, all uh-uh, let's say how it is, there are computer chips, software, what kind of uh-huh, they are afraid that we will get it, they take it out even before we uh-uh, this weapon is delivered thirdly, when i hear there that something could happen to these weapons. well, something could happen. well, i say, you know, i can only imagine how the ukrainians will steal howitzers and, i'm sorry,

what they will actually do with them later. of course, i think everyone is aware that it is impossible. i think it was more about control over logistical deployment and accelerated heat penetration. and it would be on the front and on this or that specific section of the front until the end, the weapon would be the most necessary explanation and reassurance , so here the bigger question is how seriously russian propaganda is working against us now, because i can to say that at the beginning of the war, they deployed a very strong front against us, that, for example , ukrainians are all racists, and that, for example, we don't let dark-skinned people abroad there, you can't imagine now, but we have one of the largest problems that russian propaganda is working against us in the countries of africa and asia, where they say that the ukrainians have specifically decided to have a voice in the world and are not releasing grain from their ports, that it is not the russian federation that has blocked our ports and

we cannot export the grain that we currently have what are the ukrainians who have decided to manipulate against themselves in this way? well, in fact, they are now setting up african countries against themselves . best of all, the whole team of oleksandr ustinova, the people's deputy of ukraine, worked for you dear tv viewers from washington well, we talked with oleksandra, including about chi-mansa, maybe even additional ones, so far we are talking about four such installations, maybe their number will double, but uh in the column, our analyst, our friend, the zdifens analyst, serhiy zgurets on e-e hm site espresso.tv writes that the russians are trying to deploy long-range weapons in the area of ​​the city of winterfell in the luhansk region and are deploying a point in they have a firing range of about 120 km in order to have the entire line of contact in the donbas in their sights. if

the armed forces of ukraine also supply mars in this zone, then one is placed. as i understand it, in the controlled part of the donbas, the american rocket artillery system of increased mobility allows you to hold almost all areas where the enemy is trying to move under the influence, and here now the most important thing is not even the number of such installations, but the number of shells for them, given the results of the last third ramstein, which slightly disappointed some ukrainian analysts they say a small number of howitzers, say the united states, but a very, very significant number of shells for them, on this we take a short pause in the analysts, this time is informational to work there, we pass the word to our new bunks and the presenter angelica sozonenko, colleague thank you very much, and while the hymers are still going to us, the armored personnel carriers have already arrived from austria
