about three million people, which is actually not so bad, today everyone watch the news of the economy during the war on weekdays at 8:00 in the morning and a repeat at 11:00 in the evening. i am andrii yanitskyi, the espresso tv channel, together we will overcome the beliefs from washington, the program of the ukrainian service of the voice of america time time i'm yuliya yarmolenko congratulations , today we are talking about the progress of the war, the prospects for negotiations and the likelihood of a protracted conflict, but let's start with the political crisis in great britain, one of the most important partners of ukraine today over prime minister boris johnson threatened

to resign again in the past day, more than 30 members of johnson's government have resigned - declaring that they no longer have confidence in the british leader and that he is only dragging his government into crisis, among others, the minister resigned of finance and the minister of health, now it's johnson's turn, a number of both his opponents and party members believe that what will happen next and what significance will it have for ukraine? let's talk about it with bohdan tsyupin, who joins the broadcast i congratulate london bohdan, this is not the first time this year that boroz johnson finds himself under threat of resignation, what are the chances that this time it will happen , er, yulia, it will happen like this, and the british prime minister, and boris jonde, resigns as well how did they do it to him, his predecessor, theresa may, overcame the resignation of theresa's predecessor, we are leaving cameron, the prime minister resigned,

when they found themselves in a situation where they lost the trust of their government party, when they actually lost the opportunity to lead, and now we we know that a group of deputies is talking to the british prime minister at 10 dudny street, convincing him of the date of his resignation. although there are several members of the cabinet who are loyal to him and are willing to continue cooperating with him, boris johnson himself said today that he will continue to work , try to work, therefore that it would be irresponsible to leave a gay man out of office with words at a time when britain is suffering from such big economic problems and europe is suffering from the biggest one since the second world war, and he also solved it in ukraine

bohdan's russia, what is the main problem in that there are many claims and all of them mostly relate to the fact that boris johnson er somehow bypassed the rules or violated the rules or disregarded the rules and at the same time allowed er to be, as they say here in great britain, economical with the truth or let's say talking about things that he supposedly did not know in fact knowing and so on and so on and so on, that is, trust in the prime minister is very, very low now it is also shown survey results of the survey in velika britain, but the fact is that the british mps , in fact, fellow party members of boris johnson, do not try to punish him for

immorality . want to change the leader in order to increase the authority of their party in the eyes of the british voters and to retain their mandates and possibly also to expand the number of seats for the government of the conservative party, they need it in order to stay in power, to win new mandates and seats in bohdan's parliament, if it is about foreign policy, then the ukrainians must have given johnson's administration an excellent rating, because the british prime minister in the past few months has shown himself to be one of the most eloquent of those allies of ukraine. what will johnson's possible and very probable resignation mean for london's support of kyiv on this side of the

matter ? comments that i had to hear here in british circles in london is that support for ukraine is not johnsonian but british, that is, britain as a country supports and supports ukraine for such support is expressed by oppositionists , representatives of other parties actually express themselves, british society also, for example , the british program to support ukraine e- e training of the ukrainian military, in fact, military aid to ukraine began, for example, in 2015, when david cameron was the prime minister, perhaps some er, our audience has already begun to forget that such a british politician it was. it was a long time ago , but on the other hand, they say that changes are possible, er, probable in the sense that there is another leader of the

british government, well, at least he would have expressed himself differently, maybe to some he managed to take other steps. he would make other, different accents because british prime minister borj johnson is known for his directness, so to speak, his recognition . they know him very well. he speaks very clearly. but again, the hope is primarily in that that britain's policy as a country of the state towards ukraine in this situation should not undergo radical changes. thank you, bohdan, my colleague bohdan tsyupin was on the phone from london this week. he will call on the members of the group of 20, do you know the pressure on the brain or to support the efforts of the un with the opening maritime routes blocked due to russia's war against ukraine. this was announced in the state secretary's office on the

eve of the meeting of foreign ministers of the group of 20, which will be held on july 7 and 8. the ball is also expected to repeat what the state secretary will repeat a warning to beijing not to support moscow's aggression at the ball blinken is to hold a bilateral meeting with his chinese counterpart ivan and with the minister of foreign affairs of russia sergey lavrov meetings are not expected anymore about the forum of the top diplomats of the group of twenty the day before, the spokesman of the state department spoke about price, the secretary of state intends to be fully involved in the meeting group of 20, i will talk about any plans of the minister of foreign affairs of russia lavrov or any other participant of the meeting at the ministerial level, but i can to say that the secretary of state will be a fully engaged and active participant in the meeting, which we view as a valuable forum

. around the world in terms of rising food prices, goods and other consequences, the united states still does not see any serious intentions from the kremlin to negotiate, the white house spokeswoman said karin jeanpierre, journalists asked her whether washington sees a military solution to the conflict. and if not , what is it doing for a peaceful settlement, and also whether the latest territorial gains of russian troops have changed the position of the white house. here is what she answered ... about ukraine without ukraine, what we have been doing for the past few months providing assistance we want to make sure that ukraine is in the strongest position so that when the opportunity arises to hold these negotiations they can do it, but what we see from president putin, he does not have the desire to enter into negotiations, our approach has not changed. we are going to continue to support ukraine. we

will continue to help ukraine fight for its democracy, fight for its territorial integrity, regarding the second question that came up, the hostilities in donbas can be prolonged, we have been talking about this for some time and we see gains and losses from both sides, but this does not mean that the russians were able to achieve their goals and this does not mean that the ukrainians stopped fighting, they have already shown their bravery, they will continue fight for our democracy so we will continue to support ukraine we have given them the most support than any other country in terms of security assistance and this will not stop as long as the russian war in ukraine can last about this my colleagues asked american lawmakers from the democratic and republican party, some of them say that at such a high intensity as now, the war cannot last long, others predict that the complete withdrawal of russian troops, in particular from crimea, may not happen comments

by michael weekley jimarish and bradley sherman next i think the war could last at least a couple more years i'm not a military expert but it's hard to imagine it could last longer i don't know of any army that could withstand that kind of onslaught for that long most conflicts that last a long period of time don't have such intense fighting in other words i ca n't imagine these fighting going on for years at such intensity as it is now simply because there is no such capacity both from the point of view of finances and from the point of view of military and human resources why the russians use a huge number of weapons and should receive an equal response, the members of the verkhovna rada informed us that the russians know the total amount of ammunition left for these weapons from the soviet era and they

are waiting until they run out. important, we have learned many lessons from the state, and the main one is that we cannot give people what they do not want and what they do not want to fight for, this is exactly what happened in afghanistan, we spent a lot of money to strengthen their army but when the battle started they turned around and fled i talked a lot with afghans during this period don't compare afghan soldiers with ukrainian soldiers they fight to the death now many of them lose their lives they don't give up everything but they don't run away but i want to see a ceasefire and a settlement, the whole world is paying for putin's aggression. i think that as a result of this war, more people will die in africa than in eastern europe due to the increase in food prices, especially wheat as well as fertilizers and fuel, all this is because of putin's war of aggression, that's why we are very interested in ending this war, we may not achieve

full justice, i don't think that russia will leave crimea, but the sooner you see this war, the better the ukrainian military is motivated they know why and for what they are fighting, says yuriy kochevanko, an officer of the 95th separate airborne assault brigade of the armed forces of ukraine, who has been on the front lines since the first days of the war. previously , he was a lawyer and a psychologist. now he is a soldier. finally, for ukraine to be free, should ukrainians prepare for a protracted war and how does he see its end? yuriy kochevenko told in an interview with myroslava gongadze, you are for yourself, for yourself , this war is already long enough, it started not now, it started 8 years ago, you then accepted the decision to go to the front as a volunteer you went through this war and now this war is different or is it still a continuation of the first war, it is also

different and it is a continuation, that is, of course, from the point of view of the scale of hostilities, there is no character the use of various means in the military language of fire damage, to put it simply, ways to kill people er, all this is much more massive , more frightening, much more intense, much more compressed in time, but the enemy is the same, his rhetoric is basically the same. therefore, nothing has changed here for us, but we are more than this internal wars psychologically seem to have been much better prepared and that's why we are this p- the first blitzkrieg that's why he failed in them as well because neither his information attack nor the actual military one it did not give such a result, which they expected for some reason, i don't know, because they wanted to,

for sure, if it was as it was in 2014, and it did not turn out like that at all, of course, the scale of hostilities, the level of losses, the complexity, it is more significant, could ukraine, uh, have prepared better for you know, i joined the armed forces before february 24, and then we were told directly from october what was going to happen, and supposedly the country even started preparing for this, or could it have been better to prepare? well, of course it was possible, but we don’t have it right now, you probably know, in minerva’s own words, it takes off at midnight, we have it, then we will analyze what was done wrong and how not to repeat these mistakes, now all

energy should be focused on achieving a result here and now. okay, if you look at tomorrow well, today and tomorrow, what should ukraine be ready for right now, ah, in the conditions in which we live now, mother, be ready for a long war. by the way, this is what i told myself from the first days: i am preparing for a long war and i will defend ukraine as long as possible i will be able as long as i have enough health and strength , that is, it could be several years at least, it is them, as i am very diligently trying to give an assessment of the nature of the hostilities, but still, what we see says that it is becoming more and more protracted while maintaining a fairly high

level of the intensity of the hostilities themselves, if you remember in the first weeks of the war there, they said that russia would not be able to get close to them and it would collapse, we see that this did not happen. and i also said then that authoritarian regimes always have good mobilization resources, they have a mechanism of coercion that allows them to squeeze the last juice out of their nation, and we are seeing this in russia now. they openly declare that for them defeat in this war is the end of russia itself. they understand it, they even admit it. therefore, we should not expect that they will surrender only because they did not succeed immediately, they will drive thousands, tens of hundreds of thousands of their fellow citizens to slaughter, as they are currently driving residents of the occupied territories of donetsk and luhansk, and we have those who are ready for this as a first step

internal, everyone must understand for himself that this is for a long time and what he will do will work pay taxes will serve in the armed forces as long as necessary and not until he is tired will organize international support volunteer help prepare himself for a long distance not for a short sprint oh let's do it so that you can do it in the long term than there is a one-time some but a more significant amount yes do you think that the west at all understands your motivation what are you doing and understands this war i have my friend is a marine from the united states, it seems to me that he understands everything adequately, judging by the way we communicate, but he is a man who went through

two wars and he has a different focus of perception. their own security, their own well-being, so how willing are they to sacrifice something for the sake of ukraine, well, this is a big question and probably a task for our diaspora activists and diplomats to remind them of this and explain what we are not here for we are fighting for ourselves, there is a very cool slogan from the time of the polish liberation movement for our and your freedom yes for our your freedom eh and here this one should definitely become such a slogan for ukraine in the world foaver freedom and years that is, we are for the whole free world we stand here, we will fall, you would go to you, we are not protecting ukraine now, we are now protecting the whole free world, and of course we are, but what is also important for them to understand, of course, we need western weapons, better weapons, whatever you can, let's not, not better, the same, let's all go to

but this matter of weapons, the supply of these weapons, of course, depends on this help, our combat capability , how effectively we can hit and hit the enemy, but this supply does not depend on our readiness to fight, there will be spinners, will there be leopards or not, we will still beat the enemy if we have only stones and sticks will remain, we will still beat the enemy, they will not stop us with the lack of weapons. they must understand that they want it to end quickly, well, it will end quickly and so that evil does not win. they have all their efforts now directed to our support, we are now not asking them to die with us, pay attention, although this is a united front, a single war of good against evil, we only ask for

help to make sure that they die, the enemy of the russians, what is missing today, you know, i i don't think where i won't talk about it, you see, it's the same peaceful city, we need better and the more you see the end of this war, you know this, several times politicians talked about a possible peace plan, they talked about the fact that every war ends negotiations, how do you see that every war ends with negotiations, some wars end with the capitulation of the enemy, and of course i see this ending, but i, again, first of all, i emphasize this, we must be responsible for ourselves for what we do, what we say and what we think, for me, this war, for me personally

, this war will end only when i am a lump of burnt bricks of the kremlin, you understand, and i have no idea how exactly this stage of the war will end, whether there will be any peace agreement, even if there will be any a truce as long as russia exists in its imperial format, for me this war will not end, you are already my enemy from ukraine, we must liberate belarus, we must liberate belarus, we must liberate the south caucasus, liberate abkhazia, south ossetia, make russia occupy central asia, liberate the enslaved peoples of russia to dismantle this totalitarian imperial entity, which is the russian state, and to make it a normal neighbor with whom you can live next to, see the full interview with yuriy kochevenko on the voice of america website in ukrainian and on the page on youtube and the following our story about 11-year-old blogger arthur brook,
