can be used in our struggle. are there many, of course, there are very few of them, but today you know how to stuff yourself with heimers well, it won’t be enough, because as a beloved weapon, it needs a system for providing technical maintenance, repair logistics, and uh, some regular work, so we have already proven, and these are not my words, these are the words of our american colleagues, that hymers are used extremely effectively in ukraine, we have at least 20 confirmed facts of the use of hymers and quite effective use of hymers, i.e. an increase in the number will objectively lead to the fact that we will be able to inflict damage on more targets that have already been scouted and the coordinates of which we already know. that is, this will lead to the fact that at this stage the enemy will

still be forced to reduce er, the effectiveness of your offensive actions, to give up even from offensives, to go on the defensive. well, at least to save ammunition, which is also extremely important for us. that is, in this way, we solve the problem of er, and an important task for us regarding stopping potential offensive of the enemy, because now we are already able to cover the targets throughout the operational depth of his battle formations, as for the further use of heimers, delivering them to our territory, it will depend on how we deploy or help us to deploy precisely the system of ensuring the maintenance of these heimers as effectively and ammunition for those hi-mars of various types will arrive rhythmically. and well, you have my conviction that hymers are such a mobile weapon. it should be in every brigade, therefore. well, my my personal opinion is that at least 300 such installations were very appropriate for ukraine, but what we have

now is definitely important. i emphasize once again that we are considering this quantity and the quantity that comes exclusively from the point of view of the so-called test operation, well, that is, when we say that romania barely 604 heimers have their own army, yes, this is the number needed for an average european army in peacetime, yes, absolutely, well, you understand that peacetime is not foreseen for us in the future, and we need it again, it’s already a little another thing is about the concept of non-contact combat , that is, when we use such long-range damage systems that allow us not to expose ourselves to danger, respectively, damage in response . important in our direction, that is, what else can i say about it. you know, if we are talking about those hammers and the situation that has developed, we can already

see that the enemy is in contact to conduct simultaneous offensive actions in several operational directions and in the operational zones. thus, even such a small fire team, which will consist of 12 aimers, will already allow us to have a fairly concentrated influence on the enemy, as i have already said, on the entire depth of his battle formations, yielding as command posts from the battalion, although this, let's be honest, is an unworthy goal of a non-haimers and rather it is necessary to pay attention to the command posts of the brigade level, and maybe the army or the army corps, and the serious warehouses, perhaps not even only in the territory temporarily occupied by the enemy. thank you, sir serhiu serhii, a military expert from grab, a member of the peacekeeping commissions in kosovo , was in contact with us in the regimental reserve. i'm wrong 13 units in

turkey 13 and almost identical in israel 18 danger p valery valery chaly diplomat extraordinary authorized settlement of ukraine she herself i congratulate mr. valery i congratulate you glory to ukraine glory to heroes so let's try to sum up the results this political week with you. well, we already talked about how, er, vladimir putin spoke about the fact that it still hasn't started, and then there was an even more sectional thing when the minister of foreign affairs of the russian federation, sergey lavrov, er, stayed in the it was a meeting of foreign affairs representatives of the member countries of the twenty on the island of bali. and it turned out that none of the western ministers wanted to talk with him and have dinner and take pictures, and as a result, lavrosy went and said that there was nothing to talk about with the west. it in principle, you can call the final interaction between

russia a civilizational one, and this one is the world that is connected with the united states, with great britain, with the countries of the seven , in the end, i wish so, it is possible. i agree. what exactly is the gap with this group of countries took place, but do not forget that he uses the laurel because he can communicate with such a narrow post-soviet circle as his own, it is still preserved. well, there are uzbeks , the state of kazakhstan. there is no isolation. they are happy here, somewhere they accepted their hands, even shook their hands, uh, we were born otaku plants, they call aggressors criminals. well, what is this? he was somehow offended. so he

somehow misses these words, somehow you listen and it’s already strange to me because he is such a propagandist. refined, he is not a diplomat at all, but he did not pass the test for putin’s participation, uh, he did not pass lavrov, everything is now participating directly, and putin will not be at the ball personally. simply a boycott of russia's participation. is it better to exclude russia for the period of such aggressive actions in general with ukraine's group of 20? let us remind you that us secretary of state anthony blinken appealed to russia to unblock the export of grain from ukraine. well, the united states declared that the g20 countries should hold russia accountable and the ministers

of the g20, according to a reuters report, also put a demand on russia to lift the blockade on the export of ukrainian grain, will there be an effect ? about the fact that russia itself is blocking it, well, first of all, with its military actions. well, of course , the minister of foreign affairs, dmytro kuleba, spoke correctly about the fact that they bombed the elevators, that they are the ones creating this food crisis, and we must stand clearly on this, because ukraine cannot be in this situation, if you want to be played by other countries for their interests, that is, if we have russia in our country with ships and missile attacks, it is blocking it, or by occupying the ports, which means we have to go overland to increase the possibilities of grain export and to prepare new elevators for the new harvest, in

principle it is possible, although of course in smaller volumes in relation to this whole unblocking of poliputin. i believe that this would be our defeat, no matter what arguments are used there, my friend, turkey should be provided with everything - after all, some rules are reliable and you can’t erode the world order on the portal, in principle, by those who destroy it, that’s why i think our milinia must be endured by the united states. by the way, anthony blinken and simka very clearly said they called all things by their names why did i tell her lavrov ran out of this hall because well , this situation does not work for him there, but we must not forget that, unfortunately, there is no such clear position in china, nor in india, well, in general, in the brics countries, the position is different from the group of seven, and here it is necessary to carry out a lot of work, it is clear that it is in their interests

hmmm, they are using the situation for their own, but still, we need to work wherever we can with the public, uh, in india, at least for sure, and in brazil, the same, and in south africa, well, in china, obviously, we need to work with the government rather and still prove our arguments as much as possible, but china, so today there was a meeting of the secretary general of the united states, anthony blinken, with the minister of legislation in china, they and this meeting showed that there are serious differences of opinion and fundamental issues between the countries, in particular, on the war in ukraine, because china is always talking about about the fact that if ukraine had not become a participant in this history of joining nato, if the west had not wanted ukraine to join nato, then there would have been no war, and we understand this as a real concept because now we see that in finland, sweden is joining

nato and there are no attempts from the russian side to somehow interfere with this, and as long as countries like china will invent a reason for the war in ukraine, they will not tell the truth, which they know very well, why russia is directed at our country. it seems to me that there will be no understanding with anyone. there will be two more moments. the first moment is that we think that the chinese know everything. how did we determine that the chinese know everything, and i say otherwise? unfortunately, despite everything , the greatness of china's history is, in principle, active in the work of chinese diplomacy, they were primarily focused on countering the united states and many things, such as economic expansion and countering, mainly, their opponents in the usa, these are their priorities, they do not know ukraine, and they made mistakes. in

my opinion, the mistake is mistakenly believing that putin will really be able to quickly conquer ukraine. that is, you remember the russian leader went there to visit his well, in this case, i consider him a patron, that is, i am a little more important country of simzempinja and he told me that he was trying to do this. i am sure that he said this before the invasion of ukraine, which was a full-scale invasion of ukraine, and according to my information, the first time the chinese expected that the stated russian goals would be implemented, that is, not for a few days, but for several weeks, the rapid seizure of ukraine and it was oriented in this way, then when it did not come true, they began to take steps that show a certain dissatisfaction with the way things are happening, and they even join these uh, well, they don't want to be subject to sanctions, some things

go, that is, despite the fact that they and uh perceive this situation as a competition of the usa and you. e usa, russia, that is, listen, well, we showed our role and our capabilities here, so in principle, i think they did not understand everything about the ukrainians, and probably now they will be even more interested in what kind of nation this is and how soviet weapons work in the hands of ukrainian artillerymen. and now also the western ones. so i believe that we will not be able to make china our ally now. this is obvious, but in a strategic perspective, the challenge will be very serious for us, because the usa and china , which is why the adversaries are now nato

concepts of strategic definitions, china is also a challenge . for us, for ukraine, it is also a challenge. the column where the e-e journals of the economist in which, in principle, this column talks about how the investigator develops to see the regulation of the conflict . i think that this is to some extent the position of countries such as india and donesia, strong external pressure on both countries to talk and continue to talk until time until these decisions are reached, the internal readiness of both sides to want peace and not war and, most importantly, a strong leadership capable of bringing the peace process to an end and accepting the necessary compromises. well, this is the concept you understand, but i'm sure that it corresponds to our

interests, it definitely does not correspond to our interests, the word peace sounds beautiful, but unfortunately we already understand the key thing about which, by the way, few people talk about it, well, the time has passed to talk to people like adults frankly, and you understand that if a decision is made by putin in russia about a large-scale mobilization, well, have they put it, that is, the industrial complex is trying to put it even under sanctions on military rails, people in russia are specific, that is, it will really be much bigger the scale of the confrontation between ukraine and russia, and the most important thing is that such conditions are created that even if we de-occupy the territory, then russia will call for the liberation of these territories, yes, that is, the paradox is that we

can de-occupy our own territory with the appropriate agreement that we will be provided with enough heavy weapons and then they will retake it as their own there, that is, this kind of confrontation can last for decades, we do not like this scenario and we also want a quick solution, but what a quick solution i can see it with some variations, i.e. everything should be equal de-occupied ukrainian territory, and immediately after that the key question will be how to guarantee security in europe, so that russia no longer tries to attack these countries by mistake, well , either by mistake or them . they see our war , they want to do it with a truce or a pause . but we understand that any bridgehead left for the russian army on the territory of ukraine will be

used for an even bigger offensive in the future we understand this very well and will be honest. will we be ready for one more thing? russian forces and equipment will be restored. i don't know. therefore, our task now is not to listen to all these advices, but to take our national position. and the main thing is that we defend ourselves this position on all platforms in the world and the positions did not agree, but it is clear beforehand that it is necessary to win at the front, and this is the most difficult because here the ratio of forces and capabilities of our army, which is heroic and spends a lot of resources and lives, so i cannot say how it is necessary to act one way or another, but i can definitely say that there may be a big pause for 20-30 years in

the wars with russia, or that the war will return to us in a year, two or three, and this is not the best scenario, and there is one more point that was discussed today we at the round table dedicated to the 25th anniversary of the ukraine-nato special partnership charter and many interesting ideas were voiced both from brussels and from kyiv, so one key thing is to understand that any guarantees of security, as the former minister said, the draft law volodymyr the great they should be preventive for us so that we are not attacked, and not as a reaction to the occupation, this is the key thing. i think that such things must also be understood for all these countries in the near future. well, of course, we would like to have a minute left, so that we commented on today's dismissal of ministers, it is about the decrees

published on the website of the president of ukraine according to the words "i apologize" and actually it is about the dismissal of the ukrainian leader according to the words of five countries, among them the ukrainian diplomat in germany andriy melnyk is also eh love nepob dismissed from the post of ambassador of ukraine to hungary vyacheslav yatsyuk of norway evgeny perebijnis of the czech republic ihor polikha of india and part-time in the republic of maldives federal democratic republic of nepal democratic and socialist republics of sri lanka people's republic of bangladesh well the most interesting figure for us, the most important probably in connection with ukrainian-german relations, which now contain a powerful component and a debatable component of germany's support for ukraine in the war plays the role of andriy melnyk, who headed

the diplomatic mission of ukraine in germany for the last eight years, as the dismissal of melnyk from the position of ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of ukraine in germany right now will affect germany's support for ukraine, please, the reason for the president's decrees is a rotation for a long period of stay, that is, yevhen primary since 5 years old and all older and melnyk has been an ambassador for as many as 16 years and before that i just submitted it to the president for approval, so i think i was not mistaken, as it was out of love, nepok, these are the two ambassadors who from the time when i worked and made a proposal as a foreign policy adviser to the president, but i would like well, i think that he will show himself further and will receive the position accordingly, but i would like us not to forget, you know, we didn't highlight after, for some reason let's see there,

where are you? how do you like the ambassador in germany, he's a good guy, he's good, probably the best, who worked with the media, i can admit that he works very well, his wife is a professional in this, they work in such a tandem, but at the same time, don't forget that it's the same game palikha in india, where the country is huge and important for us, is the person who closes this position for the third time , that is, the second time as an ambassador, and before that he worked at all stages, he has been working since 1989, and no one is talking about this job, no one i never remembered because ihor palyha traditionally has such approaches that he doesn't advertise his activities very much because of the changes, so in principle a new period has come, but we have to thank all those people, especially in difficult countries, you know. it's one thing to work where there is attention to ukraine and work is another matter

in asia, in africa, where do you still need this attention or have resources in order to win or as much as possible, just excuse us for our specialist there to just give results every day to that eh well, melnyk, well done, he eh, in principle, i think he is so good impudent style was evaluated in different ways. i also could not support everything, let’s say, that is, but as a result, all the same, weapons left germany, as a result, they even found the same shells for the soviets, that is, in principle, the result is there, believe me what can the ambassador do to me? more or less, but if he has the support of the president, he has the support of the minister of foreign affairs and a guarantee that his mistakes, even some, will not immediately lead to some negative decisions or, for example, they will still

listen to him as a person who works in this country if there is such a connection, then everything achieves results. well, it is important that these are countries that are interested in cooperation with ukraine, where important decisions are made, so i say once again that all those ambassadors have worked, it is more important for me to understand what appointments will be made, because this is a normal rotation. today we will wait for the decrees. because china has been without an ambassador for a year now, india needs to be appointed, in my opinion, the two most important appointments in the near future, and we have countries where rotation takes place, that is, the main thing is that journalists did not demand permanent experts, why are there no ambassadors in the country i also believe that it is important. of course, there is a period of selection of candidates for receiving a grimace, but i think that it is an unacceptable situation when there is no

ambassador in china for a year in china, which perceives the absence of ukrainian ambassadors as an unfriendly gesture, believe me i know what i'm talking about, so these things should be closed, and our ambassadors. thank you for their work. we wish the joint team success in the future . that melnyk may be recalled to kyiv in the near future and that he may take the post of deputy minister of foreign affairs vitaly, in your opinion, is this possible or should such events be expected in the near future, i do not know to be honest, i think that this is a matter of competence of the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine, because we personify many different circumstances a lot. but the most important thing is that the system itself works flawlessly diplomatically, and of course it is necessary that this system has professional personnel. these are absolutely obvious things. but is this so? it will be on

practice, let's see what happens now, oleksandr savchenko, rector of the international institute of business, deputy minister of finance of ukraine in 2009-10, joins our broadcast, congratulations, mr. oleksandr i congratulate you and we planned to analyze, together with mr. savchenko, the conference on the restoration of ukraine in lugano, which took place this week, but we actually wanted to start with a brief assessment of the economic situation in the country, what it might look like in the near future, especially since there is no news missing well, first of all, lastly, the exchange rates of foreign currencies, in particular, the us dollar, have been increasing in the last three days. on the cash currency market of ukraine and e.e., inflation accelerated to 21.5% in annual terms during june compared to 18 percent months earlier, the ukrainian parliament also met today and decided

to increase the spending part of the country's state budget by 80% by 9 billion. and in fact , people's deputy and yaroslav zheleznyak reported on this in his blog. about the list of directions in which expenses can increase, this is primarily payments to internally displaced persons - this is a pension, this is social assistance, but still, where to get the money from, mr. oleksandr, and how do you generally assess the economic the situation in the country now and in the near future, closer to autumn, the heating season is still waiting for us, please, the situation is very difficult and there are no complete statistics yet. but i think that after the start of a full-scale war, the budget of ukraine paid twice and this is a derivative of the reduction of

gdp rather than our entire gdp has fallen twice, well, let me remind you that in russia, gdp is expected to drop by 8-10%, in ours by around 45-50%. well, accordingly, we have a huge budget deficit, really at the level of 5 billion dollars , now it is better for us to speak in dollars, because on unfortunately, the main source of funding for our budget is foreign aid, it comes but irregularly and not in full, and therefore, unfortunately, the national bank is forced to support the cabinet of ministers by issuing additional hryvnias

. inflation and pressure on the cone of the hryvnia is increasing. well, this is the situation. i advise all ukrainians to prepare for a drop in their incomes to our incomes by about 50%, that is, twice as it will happen, well, three blows are waiting for us the first is a price increase of 21.5%. there will be a little more, and the second, the second source of income decline is unemployment, i think it has already reached somewhere around

30%, and not everyone will be able to receive appropriate financial e-e infusions from the state, everything is quite difficult there, and the third is simply a reduction in incomes and salaries. what is happening now there is, er, you know , a category of people who, in fact, have not been affected by the crisis, these are civil servants, they are, er, employees of state enterprises, the salary does not decrease, sometimes it even increases, or in my opinion, it is wrong, and that is why they are and statements that increased budget expenditures. of course, they should be supported by the sources of covering these expenditures. it seems to me that we did not use one, well

, that is, a powerful tool for these expenditures, namely the reduction of the number of officials who have not decreased , and the territory that we manage are people who it is necessary to help enterprises that worked for a third less than for a third of honey and uh, let 's already think about the rud program of the number of officials and the main limitation of the earnings of the customs fee i think that it is wrong, immoral and in general it is wrong to continue living as if nothing is happening, this means the financial support of officials, and i would suggest, for the period of the war, to introduce a limit of five

minimum salaries . can receive public sector workers, officials, judges, prosecutors, well, the war should be for everyone, and in our country, it turned out that the main outcasts are the people who suffer from a lack of money, they are pensioners, private entrepreneurs. well, just sign about a third the business does not work and is at a loss. and here we need to put things in order. well, i would suggest a test if you are asking what kind of situation is difficult. you can tolerate it for a few months.
