the positions of our troops. since the local population is also present here, we cannot provide ourselves with a mine fence there, that is, with minefields or something else, we install them. these are the ones, well , it is safe for the local people, but in the event that the enemy wants to sneak up to us, that is, we we will hear in case the front approaches us, then we have more strong fortifications there, well, for the whole department and there are personal ones. we build such trenches very conveniently, that is, such awnings and trenches on top, we cover them with sacks so that in case to play, they fly in, they hit from above, that is, of course, russian strikes on kramatorsk kharkiv on the snake's place installed the ukrainian flag - this is the 134th day of the war between russia and ukraine about the main events at the front and also about key international events, we tell the bbc news broadcast live and from london boris johnson announced his resignation, but

he is in no hurry to have fun with 10 long-standing feuds, whether the former leader of the conservative party will stay in the prime minister's chair for a long time, russia has announced a pause in hostilities, western analysts believe so they are gathering forces for an offensive and turkey released a russian ship ukrainian authorities are protesting there was stolen grain in great britain there will be a new prime minister boris johnson due to pressure from his party members was forced to announce his resignation although he held on to his position until the last what happened two key ministers spoke out against boris johnson his government, after them, more than 50

government officials of various levels, deputy ministers, advisers, other members of the government also called on johnson to leave the chair, and in the morning the prime minister spoke with in an address to the british, in which he stated that he is taking on the authority of the leader of the conservatives, now his party will elect a new leader who will become the next prime minister. boris johnson also listed the achievements of his government, in particular he mentioned the support of ukraine, the achievements of our government were that we adopted many laws, managed to overcome the pandemic carry out the fastest population vaccination process in europe and the fastest exit from the lockdown and during the last few months, also be leaders among western countries in the fight against putin's aggression in ukraine, so let me now turn to the people of ukraine. i am sure that britain will support your fight for freedom as long as it takes, and my colleague iryna taraniuk is near

the british prime minister's residence on downing street . in the same place, boris johnson stated what he did not want to state with all his might and tried to avoid. he lost the party's trust. he lost power. in fact, he lost power in less than two days, but johnson still takes he remains the prime minister remains on the ancient island, how long he will be there is a very good question zhenya good evening, he has lost the trust of his party, but he is holding on to power with all his might. he even accused his fellow party members in the parliament, the conservative parliamentary faction, that he is forced to leave with great sadness, but e he hopes that he will remain on the old fri 10 i have all the residences behind me at least until the end of september, because we do not forget that the parliamentary vacation will soon begin and he is counting on the fact that the conservative parliamentary party will not be able to find a replacement for him in time that would gain the support

of the entire party. of course, his position after the complete undermining of trust in him as a politician , in his honesty, in his expression of his assurances , was already so low that there was no way for him to hold on to his position. chances, because i will remind you today even during the bbc broadcasts before the fight, johnson announced his resignation, five more ministers and deputy ministers left his government, the total number of people who did not want to working in his government exceeded 50, this has never happened in the history of british parliamentarism, and if other prime ministers went with dignity to admit defeat, then the sea with jones was held to the last, and by the way, today he has already managed to re-appoint most of the new candidates to high-profile positions that have been vacated by resignations ironically, one of the last stabs in the back of

boris johnson's prime ministership was the one appointed by him to the position of the influential chancellor of the state treasury, who was appointed just two days ago and already today expressed confidence in the prime minister , that is, i know zhenya bore johnson studied the classics, he wanted to end his premiership with a triumph, but it seems like a greek tragedy . brexit pandemic iryna let's see how boris johnson will be remembered as prime minister this boy dreams of becoming the king of the world a figure so contradictory that the same contradictions eventually played him a bad joke the morning of a turkish journalist johnson was born in new york in the family of a diplomat and an artist and lived there until the family moved to britain. he was sent to study at eton, an elite boarding school, where his

famous eccentric temperament began to develop. later, he entered oxford university. after his studies, johnson worked as a journalist for a while. and only in in 2001, he decided to try his hand at politics, becoming a member of the house of commons of the british parliament. in 2007, johnson broke into the global political arena, taking the seat of the mayor of london and in 2012, when the attention of the whole world was focused on the olympic games, which were held in the capital of great britain. johnson's eccentricity was noticed far beyond the country's borders on the eve of 2016. i think about britain's exit from the eu, johnson could not decide whose side he was on. after long hesitation, the politician decided to join the bregger camp and even became a decisive figure in this process in june 2016 great britain votes to leave the european union after a successful campaign

then prime minister theresa may unexpectedly appoints johnson as foreign minister was so unexpected that diplomats hung up each other 's phones asking if it was a joke, and the new minister continued to confuse the british with his antics, sometimes finding himself in an awkward situation when the brexit dispute led to the resignation of theresa may, the conservatives bet on a person who seemed to guarantee them victory in the first few months of johnson's premiership brexit remained the biggest problem of political players different factions of the parliament were full of resolve it to influence this process or to stop it in the end johnson is going to the elections under the slogan get brexit dan, that is, to embody the nonsense, the election campaign turned out to be extremely successful, fundamentally changing the political landscape of the country for the conservative party, the election result became the best since 1987. and for johnson himself, it partially wrote off

his previous ones sins, the way for great britain to leave the eu was open, but just a few months after the formation of the government, the coronavirus pandemic confused all plans, i have to give the british a very simple instructions you should stay at home and critics of the prime minister stated that he was late with this decision, the coronavirus had time to wreak havoc in italy , france and other countries. british history great britain is very proud of its national health service, so for the next two years johnson is trying to balance between strict restrictions that should protect the country from pandemic and keeping the economy afloat but while the british were forced to sit at home

, it turned out that the prime minister and his entourage often went to parties, this case was dubbed pati gate , the police issued 126 fines to 83 participants for violating quarantine rules, including himself johnson today i received a fine from the metropolitan police in connection with the incident on dvaniy street. i want to say that i immediately paid it and once again apologize for the short respite given to boris johnson by russia's full-scale invasion of ukraine and his strong support for ukraine and successive shipments of weapons met with approval all over the world, but the new scandal became decisive for johnson's political fate, a deputy from the conservative party was accused of sexual harassment, and johnson, who actually appointed him to a leadership position, at first stated that he did not know this, later he was forced to change show and apologize again i

apologize for this looking back and understand that it was wrong and when one by one the government employees resigned it became clear this time an apology will not save. we have reason to doubt the veracity of what we were all told. at some point, we must conclude that it is enough that johnson did not become the king of the world, but a wave of popular support lifted him to the political olympus of his country, and the loss of trust among his own colleagues finally iryna put an end to his childhood dream, now the british police will begin an interesting period of searching for a new prime minister, but in ukraine boris johnson's resignation was received with sadness, so president zelenskyi spoke with johnson on the phone and said that all ukrainians sympathize with you and are grateful for your help. actually early on from the

change of british prime minister, the support for ukraine changes or does not change, in short. it will not change much or at all because the support of ukraine in the unjust war waged by russia against the ukrainian state is the position it is absolutely clear to britain that there is an aggressor here, russia is the offended party, ukraine and britain were one of the pillars of the security of ukraine and the territorial integrity of the sovereignty of ukraine, one of the signatories of the budapest memorandum in december in 1994, then prime minister john meyer did it, but what is important to emphasize is that one of the first after the resignation of boresh johnson called volodymyr zelensky precisely in order to assure him and the ukrainian people of the unchanging support of london , and i want to remind you that now officially people are conservatives they are not nominated for the

position of the next leader of the party, only one person said and confirmed that they will be nominated, but everyone is waiting for the new rules that will be established by the influential parliamentary committee 1922 on monday, among the potential contenders for the leadership of the prime minister's office , all of them are supporters of ukraine, and there are even two strong anti-russian hawks, and this is the minister of foreign affairs and passion and this is the minister of defense, ben holos, and anthony was sent to kyiv today editor of the general who heads the defense headquarters of the british armed forces so that he assures the commander of the armed forces of ukraine valeryi zaluzhny that military support and the training program of the ukrainian military in britain will not end with the resignation is prime minister boris johnson and in the end the process of searching for his replacement will last weeks if not months and in the end one important

fact must be recalled since the beginning of the orbital operation and it was started by the prime minister david cameron i remember such a man i am getting married from 2015 vyshkiv 22,000 ukrainian soldiers were trained by british instructors as part of this operation. therefore, this is not even discussed. britain's support will remain unchanged, but its image and symbol will no longer be so charismatic and close to ukrainians. although boris johnson is a mystery to me, why is he so popular among society, as we saw in the report of our colleague roman lebedya, if you remember his frankness , many supporters of the labor party liked him precisely because he is a journalist, a publicist, and handsome a public speaker knows how to find a common language with any people and

it is imperceptible to him either of his aristocratic origin or of his privileged education, that is, you know , he is a man. he must be his boyfriend in any i think i already said once that he is like pickled cucumbers. if we talk about ukraine, the british either like him very much or dislike him very much. and that is why we have the result we have. he is not an ideological politician , he is charisma what his paths in the conservative party converged when it was necessary to complete the brexit, but now these paths have diverged because precisely because he is the bearer of conservative values ​​and that is why it was difficult for him to preserve the integrity of his cabinet when his ministers and government officials began to leave due to the loss of trust one by one, but johnson still remains and he will do everything to ensure that his successor as

prime minister of great britain remains a supporter of ukraine and consistently defends the interests of ukraine on international platforms. thank you very much iryna it was iryna tereniuk about the resignation of boris johnson, what are the consequences of your absence and when we talk about brexit boris johnson the prime minister who took britain out of the european union, in fact, he committed a blunder if britain had remained in the eu, it would not have been able to support ukraine as it is doing, this is what the ukrainian diplomat, the former ambassador of ukraine to austria, oleksandr shcherba, believes. he is in direct contact with us, oleksandr. i welcome you to our studio. i am not sure if the support for ukraine would have been so pronounced if there had been no brexit. that is why i will leave a question mark at the end of this. but

in principle, you know, everyone immediately attacked me saying that these english people support ukraine regardless from the one who is the prime minister and he was simply the voice of the whole of great britain but i remember how in the first days after the beginning of this russian invasion i gave a bunch of interviews to the bbc and after one interview when i already had three for the third time they asked, do you really? well, do you really believe that ukraine can resist, er, russian aggression? i said, you know , that i will not give this interview because it just made me angry, this attitude of such and such. that is cowardice and disloyalty, you understand. johnson had this faith, and therefore i am not sure what johnson really is he did. he just went with the flow. no, he created the flow. it seems to me. and i understand that he is a politician

. i changed. everyone remembers how in the 14th year he was basically silent when there was the annexation of crimea, but that's how he showed himself. during the war, i think it would be absolute ungratefulness on the part of ukraine not to thank him and not to say that this, mr. prime minister, is an absolutely personal contribution, mr. oleksandr, in your opinion, will this british support change with the new prime minister of great britain i just one of the millions of ukrainians who have become in recent months i'm an anglophile, that's why you probably know better whether what i'm hearing will change or not. if ben 's voice or letter-trans really have a chance to become the prime minister, it certainly won't change, and the most important thing is that i hope that this moment is our moment that resonates with their moment in the 38th

39th 40s when they eh when in churchill's voice she told you we will fight with them eh on land and on land na na na na in in the air and on the beaches, it will not end this moment and it is possible precisely because this story is ours and theirs today echoes that is why we are so attached to them now and they are to us, but at the same time there is an opinion that until it is determined who will be the new prime minister of britain, for example joe biden, there will be no one to talk to about any further steps in support for ukraine. in your opinion, how will this period of turbulence in british politics affect western support for ukraine in general ? any weakening of our friends is certainly bad, so let's hope that at the time when our english friends become... is a little, well, at least he will not be so loud in

declaring his position and they will wait for a new full-fledged government, this void will be filled by others following their friends, thank god , thank you very much, mr. oleksandr. this was a ukrainian diplomat, a former settlement of ukraine in to austria oleksandr shcherba, thank you, and now about the situation at the front, russia has stopped declaring territorial gains for the first time since the beginning of the war, moreover, the russian ministry of defense has announced a pause in hostilities, information on a pause in hostilities on donbass is also confirmed by british intelligence and the american institute for the study of war. observers believe that the kremlin continues to prepare for a protracted war, creating conditions for the mobilization of the economy. kharkiv sumy donetsk and luhansk regions and with us in direct communication with kyiv as a colleague zhanna bezpyachuk zhanna today the

russian military shelled kharkiv kramatorsk then what do these russian statements about the operational pause on the front mean in order to understand what exactly these statements mean, it is worth listening to the opinion of military experts, they explain, first of all, when it comes to the operational pause on the front, it is worth taking into account what exactly is happening with ground operations on land yes secondly, it is also worth paying attention to the exact events that preceded these statements about an operational pause about a certain stop in active combat operations at the front, before that we saw active assault offensive actions of russia lysychansk before severodonetsk and there was indeed a certain threat of encirclement of the ukrainian group of troops precisely in the luhansk region in the area of ​​these two cities, this did not happen, and

we can further say that the intensity of hostilities in donetsk region is now significantly less than here, but there are certain reasons to talk about operational pause although it is still worth understanding that in the current situation ukrainian troops have retreated partially to donetsk region to well-fortified positions and this is not secret information that during the last eight years, the ukrainian army managed to really strengthen its positions in the territory of the donetsk region, the part that ukraine currently controls for the second time in this well -fortified fortified territory. in the kramatorsk slavyanskyi

direction and in the seversk region, and in these territories in ukraine there are critically important infrastructure facilities, it can be predicted that in the coming weeks, this is where the active combat operations for the control of these objects, what are we talking about, first of all, let's take an example, e. svitlodarsk is nearby, the vuglegirska tpp is located, e . svitlodarsk is currently temporarily occupied, but very close. it is currently under the control of ukraine, although there have already been fires there due to shelling, and this is where we will probably transfer the next active hostilities, but this is still ahead , so we can really talk about a certain pause, although although at the same time the russian army continues to shell ukrainian cities and towns both in the donbass and in

other regions, in particular, kharkiv was shelled from rocket salvo fire systems, three people were killed by zhanna, and it is also important that the destruction of russian military depots in the rear, so the armed forces of ukraine declare 12 hits, president zelenskyi says that western weapons are working. that is, this is now the strategy of the ukrainian army to target russian warehouses with ammunition, so the ukrainian side is primarily talking about what in this way, it shows specific examples of how to effectively use highly mobile missile artillery systems. systems that ukraine currently receives, however, not in sufficient quantities from the west, for example, in the average nato army of such systems , there can be more than a hundred of such systems. ukraine today has nine hammers. and what does it actually

use in order to, in particular, destroy ammunition depots and support the relatively deep rear of the russian army. but this is all about temporary the occupied ukrainian territories in the south of the country, for example, melitopol, where it was possible to destroy one of the four military bases, the ammunition was located there, and also, as we see all such indirect evidence, these systems were also used in donbas to destroy warehouses in both the luhansk region and donetsk region in the first days of the war, russia did exactly this to ukraine, destroying its military infrastructure, ukraine received weapons that allow it to do the same in order to protect its territory from occupation, invasion. thank you, zhanna bezpyachuk a bbc correspondent about the situation at the front and turkey detained and now released the russian ship zhibek zhuly, on which, as kyiv claims, stolen ukrainian grain still left from occupied

berdyansk to the turkish port of krasto and was detained at the request of the ukrainian authorities, however, as reported by the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine, the turkish side released zhebek, they lived on the evening of july 100, this is the one who ignores the request for the arrest of the vessel and cargo and demands clarification and summons the ambassador to turkey, and we talk more about this with a columnist from the atlantic council in turkey, yevhenii haber, she is in direct contact from ottawa, where she teaches at the university of karton, ms. yevheniya. welcome to our studio. in fact, this situation with the ship shows that turkey wants to maintain neutrality, while ukraine asks not to let russia export the stolen grain of the good today, in fact, turkey's position in principle has always been such a balancing act between ukraine and russia, and in this case, we see a situation where the interests of turkey, in particular, the preservation relations with russia and, of course, grain deliveries

to global markets, in particular to the countries of africa, latin america, the middle east, they somewhat outweigh the strategic partnership with ukraine , requests from the ukrainian side, this does not mean that turkey adheres to some pro-russian position, frankly, but this means that we, as ukraine , always need to be very careful and understand where are the limits of turkey's support, which we can in principle expect, so it is important for ankara now to get concrete evidence from of ukraine about the fact that the grain is really ukrainian, what the turkish side is now declaring is, in principle, that there are no legal grounds to claim that this grain is ukrainian, because various documents provided by the russian side confirming that the ships leave from other ports are crimean ports,

which allegedly russian grain, and so on. and so on. our task is maximum international attention and legal evidence that this is really ukrainian grain that was stolen by the russian side. and the ship that left the occupied berdyanska in turkey is the mediator between ukraine and russia in these negotiations regarding the unblocking of the black sea, and in particular they are talking about the creation of such grain corridors, and the negotiations have not brought results so far. ukraine demands a guarantee of protection if these corridors will be created. to offer protection guarantees and in or to see them, well, currently they are discussing different formats of what these security guarantees can be and what the very format of these corridors can be in particular options are being discussed, which would not require the demining of the black sea basin,

a small area has been set aside, so the ships could pass without demining, how much it is realistic, now it is difficult to say in the event that it will still have to be demined, as far as i can see certain parts, of course what is important so that these are not just some verbal assurances, but real guarantees, security mechanisms, now i do not see such mechanisms, because it is obvious that turkey will not escalate relations with russia in the event of violations of these agreements on the russian side, at the same time these negotiations are ongoing and part of the negotiations are , in particular, russia's demands for unblocking russian supplies to international markets, the unblocking of russian grain, the restoration of insurance for russian ships, the return of russian banks to the world system for making these payments. therefore, now it is actually very such a construction is difficult when the position of all

parties must be lacking and turkey is trying to act as a mediator here. and literally 10 seconds for your opinion, turkey's position regarding the war has changed, but over the past few months, i think that turkey's position has changed, perhaps the attitude of ukraine towards turkey's position has changed because, objectively, the steps that were taken to meet ukraine at the beginning of the supply of berectors and the closure of the straits are now somewhat balanced by non-attachment to the sanctions of cooperation with russia, therefore, the position is the same, but it manifests itself in different ways. thank you, this was a review of the atlantic council in turkey yevgenia haber, what should we end the issue with, i will remind you today important changes have taken place in great britain. boris johnson is no longer the leader of the conservative party, the ruling party , and he will leave the post of prime minister as soon as his party finds a replacement for him.

glory to ukraine - this is a verdict program. my name is serhiy rudenko. good day and good health to everyone today 134 a day of heroic resistance of ukrainians against the russian occupation, the russian army fired missiles at odesa and the island of change , where it significantly damaged the pier, meanwhile, the ukrainian military installed a ukrainian flag on the snake, russia is trying to advance on slavyansk and bakhmut, the ukrainian military says that the attacks repelled the biggest losses of the past day, the russian army suffered in the avdiiv and bakhmut directions , the general staff reported that with the beginning of the already great war, the russians had already lost 36,650 people and 1,602 tanks in ukraine
