what is happening there now, well, there is a new government, er, order the delivery, they are trying to prepare for the er, academic year, they are trying to prepare for the heating period. uh, run nitrogen, but where gas is the main uh, the main raw material, where safety requires some restrictions regarding the backup power line there, i think it is more and more like some kind of fantasy , and judging by the work experience of this manager uh of the city, who headed bryanka, it is most likely that the plant will be scrapped for steam, cut from the given er, the wrong ones are arranging, they are starting to er, the rubble will be torn up,

but all this without professionals, without er, means and rules there, er, security, they attract the place of residents of pensioners, well, wild some kind of wild period is going through now in severodonetsk, where one of the russian bloggers was in some war there, he had just been captured by the russians. severodonetsk wrote that the city remains as hostile as possible, this is due to the fact that especially the youth supported it the armed forces and even one way or another was involved in the defense of the city, what is the situation now, are there still many young people left there, are there any repressions among those who could not stay in severodonetsk or stayed for some reason and have the right ukrainian views i think that it turned out very a lot of young people, mostly older people

or outspoken supporters of the russian world, are left, and the truth is that i know that there are a lot of dissatisfied russians in america, even the political measures that they are trying to conduct there there commissions are creating a pseudo-referendum to hold a referendum, they can't, they don't have the opportunity to rely on local residents, so they involve residents of the old occupied territories there luhanska stakhanova because they don't trust the youth, including in the newly occupied territories and there is repression, as i have already said, there are filtration camps, and there we were talking about starobelsk, we were talking about stakhanov, we were talking about luhansk, they are trying to suppress . in some cases, people refuse, and there is pressure on them

, they are forced to cooperate or to leave, they are threatened because of cases. about starobilsk, but it is not of such a massive nature, there is a certain cooperation with local activists with the underground, let's say they are a little nervous, the occupiers don't help us with information, that's why everyone these weak cottons that are also happening in the occupied part of luhansk oblast, it is theirs, including that. and you said that this government, so to speak, is trying to prepare for the school year, there is a month left, what is their preparation, where

do they get those teachers from cooperation, or again, do they attract teachers from previously occupied territories or bring them from russia, maybe i heard that even from russia they bring and attract them for high salaries in order to teach kindergarten teachers from of the russian federation went to the luhansk region of donetsk region in order to teach in order to raise children. there are certain problems with the organization of the educational process in terms of the infrastructure itself. as far as i know, these survived there. there are more or less 3 or 5 schools left there, and it's not only severodonetsk we are talking here about severodonetsk, about lysichan, about the frontier, about crime, that is, in fact, i think that two-thirds of educational institutions have been destroyed or damaged to such an extent that it will be impossible to restore the educational process in addition, there will be problems with the back, water, there will be problems with inflammation, i think that it is possible to get there

, the way out will be the transfer to calmer territories, as it is important, the crimes, not such destruction, were possible starobelsk on a kayak there, where, er, military operations are not very active were conducted simply well, they have settings on every path at every step and those teachers from russia, even for a lot of money, go to the territory that is destroyed there with the infrastructure is not so easy, they are simply bought for this specifically, i have some facts there is no information on this topic, but i heard that there is an agitation not in the occupied territories, but even in the russian federation, that doctors and teachers are being recruited to work in luhansk region, in donetsk region,

promising very high earnings. maybe even without the war, the conditions are almost the same as it is now in donetsk, just that salaries are lower. thank you, mr. roman . with us is the deputy commander of the battalion of the carpathian sichka legion of freedom to the north . zaporizhzhia what to prepare for in general well, in general, i can tell you more about the situation directly on the map of ukraine, our battalion holds the positions of carpathian sich, the legion of freedom

in general, e-e although, of course, the association with overturning troops it has such a general character and if our enemy transfers more troops somewhere, then, accordingly, he usually weakens his positions somewhere because, well, in order to receive all the lines at the same time and only try to advance them, it is not given to them and they do not have enough these are forces. if we talk about some strategic plans, then we clearly understand that they use uh, everyone tries to carry out their various offensive plans, and if they fail to carry out one, then they try another, and that's why now they probably after all, the main attention will be focused on the capture of the territory of luhansk region and donetsk region. and as for the direction that our battalion of the carpathian sich freedom legion is holding, i can tell you that constant active shelling continues, active combat operations, shelling of our

positions and our unit, our battalion of the carpathian sich and in general other units of the armed forces of ukraine during the last time have been conducting active contour offensive actions and successful counter-offensive actions , and regardless of that, the situation is quite difficult and heavy battles continue and there are successes in this regard, and i think that we will only consolidate and consolidate these successes and hope that these facts of destruction and war and equipment and other empty forces of manpower will continue and little by little to destroy them, to start moving forward, if we are talking about the raisin direction, how promising does it look in order to eh, that is, what is needed there in order for the situation to improve, that we all need a large number of

long-range offensive height eh in us extremely high combatant morale in our unit in the carpathian sich battalion, we are still fighting, we are not laying a hand on us, volunteers are passing by again, we are replenishing our personnel , the more we have and the faster we have equipment, the faster we will we will be able to move forward, er, the situation in general well, it’s not just that, it’s necessary to openly point out that you can’t underestimate the enemy. however, that’s how they look while they are there. there are some basic offensive actions, the main amount of equipment is trying to throw in other directions, then these the directions are partly somewhere er lose their such vigilance attention and er there is an opportunity to tighten their reserves and er plan some there i

don’t know possible er further actions that can be you even theoretically and we also expect expect always expect that once most of the weapons or have the opportunity to differ them all the way to the border. is it possible that you will encounter a cold weather? well, the season is already winter, but in these positions. where are you now? do you consider it as an opportunity? how do you feel about it? well, of course, it can be very we are prepared in different ways for different situations. we believe and hope that by the time of the cold weather we will have made quite a lot of progress. again, what is needed for this is clear to all of us, and we believe and hope that it will be so, but in any case, yes as they say, you want. we prepare for war in the same way. we prepare for such situations . our asset service works very well. our support service

. it's cold and it will start raining a little more, of course the conditions are a bit more difficult to serve. but they are in the bedroom , it's not only for us. this is also already er and both materially almost and psychologically completely ready. so you say that it is more difficult for the enemy, why is it more difficult? well, the land helps us, first of all, our land helps us. which can be called miracles, where the superiors protect us,

protect our boys, help in many situations, in fact, we always joke that we can write a book about the cases that happen. know our land as well as we know all the possibilities to walk the trails and how the local population helps us with what else is left behind somewhere behind our shoulders uh, so no one and never will certainly and never will help and so will never know our land our enemies, therefore, in any situation, we will be in better conditions than our lesson, describe at least some small miracle or in the conditions of this war. i want to hear about that miracle sometimes, it somehow adds a little more faith and hope that everything will be well, there were such situations where, uh, hmm , there was simply shelling of some cities, uh, in

which our guys, uh, our guys were previously, some kind of literally there, i don’t know, 10-15 minutes after we left these positions and such, well, in so many different cases where there unexpectedly broken equipment with some strange repairs began to start by itself, there were many such situations, it will probably be possible to tell in more detail after the war well, in fact, even at the beginning of the war, one of the authoritative centers of analysts of the american military e.e. the center of international security of the cofford brand. four scenarios of how the war in ukraine will develop. it seems that it was only the beginning of march and the first and not very likely scenario in them was called the miracle on the dnieper

in fact, that's what they called a miracle because it was supposed to be a miracle in their opinion that russia completely lost the battle for the dnieper, the battle for kyiv, and the miracle actually happened. and now they even write that well, even this does not surprise anyone the rest, but at that moment it seemed like a miracle , even the fact that ukraine is advancing on the second, so to speak, the army of the world is liberating the territory , this in itself was once a miracle. and now we are even used to such people, and i was grateful to god higher powers to all of us in this they help and that's why we are all absolutely sure that the victory will be for us, this is the destruction of many very eh formations by heimers eh how much ot inte when was the worst conditionally speaking time for for your for your eh for your area and

front is now easier the hardest the time was then, of course, when we had just taken up positions, it was the beginning of april of this year, when our battalion of carpathian svobody took over from positions in kharkiv oblast, at that time, well, it was very difficult. it was a completely new territory, undeveloped, and then in we didn't have that much artillery support , then we didn't have any other heavy weapons that we already have... well, we didn't have experience in that area either. now we already feel at home here, and we also feel behind us quite powerful support, of course, there are never too many weapons, but we are sure and, of course, the situation is completely in the battles, because they are difficult, but we are more confident, we

are stronger, and we are even more inspired, and that is why we are confident of our victories. and we wish you even more ordinary and unusual miracles that will come victory day, thank you for the conversation. take care. may all the higher forces be on your side. this was maria chashka, deputy commander of the battalion of the carpathian sich freedom legion. she told us what was happening in the izyum direction. well, serhiy, the cousin, head of the ukrainian center for security and cooperation, a military expert, came to us. mr. sergiy joins in. good day to you. good day. we have already mentioned the forecasts of the international security center of the kofford brand and where it is in the dnipro, but we will also talk about their other forecasts about the so-called upheavals and wars, is it such a mud, or is this a realistic

scenario, and how will ukraine enter it, or will you come out of it ? events in the south, because the russians are transferring their main forces there. actually, we can see that there is a division of four armies, in particular, the 35th army of the eastern military district. there was the capture of the capital. that is, this is such a priority unit. and by the way, there is also their 64th brigade, which became famous in quotation marks for the atrocities in buch in irpen , that is, we also see a large concentration of landing troops there, so the battles in the south will continue, that is, there will be further escalation and strictly speaking, this is

the defeat that we will inevitably inflict on the russians in this direction, and it will lead to the transition already to the next one, well, about the possible equalization of the sides somewhere and already more positional battles, but again, our army i learned to counter the russians, and this was very clearly shown by the situation precisely in the kherson direction, when, despite the fact that the occupier was building three lines, that is, a frantic defense, our armed forces successfully liberated the territories, and in fact, all these lines of defense were destroyed, and the occupier was also knocked out of there, so i i am not worried about the so-called mud of war, because in this case our armed forces have a very clear plan to counter the occupier. well, ok, if the majority of russia's most

capable forces are now four armies overturned to the south, does this mean that the russians are gradually diverting from other directions of attack , and this also opens up other possibilities. well, it is difficult to say so, because they also used the reserves that they had accumulated during this time, in particular, they were located in the belgorod region, that is they are also stretching us along the entire front line, forcing us to be distracted, but of course we have a greater opportunity to attack the russians, but let me remind you that this will be carried out only if we concretely confident in their victory in the success of such operations, the fact is that the russians are still carrying out this mobilization of theirs, let it be

called another way, there are volunteers there, there are some other things on the salary, well, actually, how much is it anyway successful, what is the quality of these troops, what can we say, we see that at least there is an offensive - attempts , yes, offensive attempts, they do not stop, but we have information that they have partial successes, for example, in the bakhmut direction, yes, indeed, there is a partial advance to the south of bakhmut, that is, we we can also see their offensives in the avdiivka area, and in the area of ​​it in the donetsk direction , that is, maryinka krasnohorivka, the village of pisky, but in most of these directions their attack was repulsed , and by the way, they also caused this slow advance, unsatisfactory, unsatisfactory pace of advance in donetsk region also a change of course. actually

, a change of strategy in this war because none of these tasks of capturing the donetsk region were completed. and i will remind you that the russians did not even reach our main defense line, that is, line of sloviansk kramatorsk bakhmut kostiantyn sloviansk kramatorsk kostyantynivka druzhkivka that is, where are our main fortified areas , that is, they are stuck on the siverskiy bakhmut line, which is much more difficult, and in fact all their reserves , all their troops could not break through our defenses , and they outnumber us e- and in numbers and in artillery, i.e. in the number of rounds and despite all this, they cannot move further. well, actually speaking, this is the best characteristic of their personnel, which even their the command is no longer reliable and without artillery without a massive missile strike, they simply can

not, so to speak, defeat our units in direct clashes very often, military experts say that you should not rely on what they say that the russian military is demoralized and even if they are suffering heavy losses the reserves of the population and that cannon fodder in russia are large, and if they need to be mobilized, how long does it take to prepare a normal fighter, or does the russians have that time? just no, i.e. it is usually necessary well, let’s say yes , there are three months at least for the training of some basic level of infantrymen, i.e. without infantry it is impossible to advance on the territory of donetsk region and actually nowhere at this time they usually do not have that time, that is, they send their units somewhere on

rotation and replenish already new personnel, i.e. they do not form, do not carry out combat coordination, do not conduct training, i.e. do not make of it what involves the formation of a high-quality combat unit well, but this is of course a low level personnel, they compensate, firstly, with mercenaries - this is what we see in wagner's group, book a-a. that is, this and the second, which they simply compensate with an advantage in artillery and ammunition, and of course that dominance in the air, that is, all those missiles that they release in large numbers s300 missiles, that is, which are anti-aircraft missiles, but they use them for ground targets, that’s what the russian command relies on, but as someone very well said that a war cannot be won only with missiles or even aviation, that’s all so what is the bet on, well, on, or on donbas

, for example, what else is the bet on the russians? is it on the vagnuvians for a numerical advantage? that is, we we continue. 000 well, up to a million well, this is the use of numbers of half a million, there is a possibility of another half a million , they also said that they can negotiate. that is, why does this advantage remain, what is the advantage of weapons, uh, there is only one factor here - this is the armament that we are waiting for from western countries the fact is that none of the countries of europe was, that is, in fact, it was not even ready for such an intensive conduct of hostilities , that is, during the first four months, as ukraine did, well, those stocks, any stocks of weapons, they are running out, accordingly,

our stocks are running out and the campaign and ammunition to them, and now we are waiting for the delivery of western weapons as soon as it arrives, we will be restocked, but if it is not in sufficient quantity, it is clear that we did not mobilize how much, but unarmed people did not can fight, that's why it's so important today to get western weapons in sufficient quantity so that we at least reach parity , that is, for now, as of this time, we still have n't reached parity with the russians in the number of weapons nomenclature, so we are forced to keep defense and we cannot proceed to any more active counter-offensive actions, but even in such conditions our command demonstrates, for example, successes in the south, that is, where it is significantly and even in this case, you see according to official

data, more than 50 settlements of the kherson region have already been liberated. that is, this speaks of the high class of our armed forces units, and that is, there is artillery and, of course, infantry units, including aviation, that is, even under the rule the russians are in the air, we still fight and win back our air as well, well, there is information there , we already know that shantona and the journalists counted first of all that they are giving us four more heimers somewhere, that is, together with those uh, how are they the m270? it seems that there will already be up to two dozen of them. all together, somewhere around 20, 20. i understand that this is not very much, but, well, recently the minister of defense of the so-called russian federation announced that they had already destroyed four harmers and then two more came out of nowhere, already six haimuss. so even the pentagon officially said that

they have not destroyed any haimers so far, and why is this an absolutely outright lie on the part of minister shoigu, that is, who is it addressed to, why lie like that sorry in fact, there is a very specific logic in this, because if they do not give out every day this portion of lies, er, lies, then er, there will be a very fast, fast demoralization of russian society and, in particular, soldiers at the front, that is, if a soldier knows that in ukraine in we in ukraine have weapons against which well, there is no countermeasure, which means that there will be no one to guard the warehouses, which means that the soldier will hide in shelters and will not actually use his equipment, he will not be in the command centers to guard the warehouses to use air

defense systems there because it will all become an object for strikes by our non-heimers and he knows that there will be no defense against it, that his country and his army will not protect it, so even otaki are outright fakes as we saw the destruction of the heimers on the second floor house, that is, and this is absolutely not stronger than the state machine, which does not exist in nature, which they invented, yes, yes, actually, but it is not easy to document such fakes. well, some kind of information input. and this is critical the need is different. otherwise, the demoralization of the russian army and society as a whole will take place at a much, much higher rate than that. here, the logic of the russians is completely clear . in order for us to cover those

operational areas of ours that we have. we need at least 60 hypers, that is, but not only haimers. that is, of course, we need three times as much artillery, that is, all these self-propelled howitzers artillery installations er, we need to reach about 1,000 pieces and this is exactly why it is so important, it is so important to speed up the supply of this western weapons so that we can conduct defense more effectively because, after all, the preference is given to the enemy, but it is big er, big zone, the long distance over which these machines operate , that is, we can see from the very donetsk direction and all the way to kherson forces us to stretch our forces instead of just working intensively in each operational zone, thank you dear mr. serhiy serhiy kuzan, head of the ukrainian center for security and cooperation of military cooperation. thank you for the conversation and this is how we

will finish our first hour of the marathon. somehow, it flew by very quickly and all kinds of information from different corners. we watched it all the time on youtube. in particular, i can only say about youtube, because i don't know how many people watch it on tv here, of course , that's a fact. well, that is, ten times more people than us watched it, more than 6,000 people in total. i think this is a good result. exactly more than, for example, watch on one channel, we have 1,300 viewers on the second, 5,600, dear viewers. thank you for your trust and attention. we are very pleased with everyone.
