recently returned to mykolaiv, this should prevent a humanitarian crisis in the region. i also have to take care of the internally displaced persons who are fleeing the war and lost their homes. as for the statement of our respected military , well, it is much better to look at the military situation in the region and if they hope that to do it in the shortest possible time, we will only support it, do everything in order to bring our victory closer. please tell me who, under what circumstances, offered you to lead the occupied kherson region, did you declare yourself or were you approached, how did it happen? well, from the very beginning of the war, i felt the need. this is a good question. i have, as it seems to me, sufficient er enough er skills in order to organize this or that direction at the central level of the executive power as for the regional level, yes, of course, i have never

worked. but i am an economist, i am a lawyer . what i have acquired over the years of my work. i hope it will be very useful to the people of kherson and believe me. i will do everything to make the most of all my knowledge so that they feel real changes . please tell the temporary so-called people appointed by the kremlin who now call themselves the authorities of kherson it is allegedly preparing for a referendum, it is allegedly about the joining of this territory to the russian federation. there is no need to vote, or well, for you, we already know the result of this vote, there was already information about the regional administration to rebuild the destroyed infrastructure, the

housing of the kherson people, we will restore a peaceful life and move in the soft direction. and this is the direction of integration into the whole civilized world, but you have some channels of communication with by the people who stayed there. that is, you somehow communicate with them, what is the mood there now, yes, we are constantly contacting the people who stayed there, and unfortunately, the situation is extremely difficult, especially if we talk about some well, not cities, remote areas. the fact is that people are constantly under pressure. as you know, there is a strong enough resistance movement there, but do you remember all these shots that flew around the internet when the people of kherson took to the streets and held rallies. but every day, it's doing everything it is harder and harder for people to be kidnapped because people are being closed and this is a real danger for them, but they continue to do it if we talk about humanitarian things and for,

well, elementary satisfaction of needs, then in remote areas there are no shops, there are no suitable supplies, the problem with medicines, well, in fact, in many regions, it’s just a humanitarian disaster, ugh, and one more question i want to ask about, uh, your past , about your professional past, i can’t help but put it low ukrainian publications, in particular, the mirror of the week, the kherson edition of the ministry of health, referring to their sources , report that in in 2014, you were lustrated and you do not have the right to hold public positions until 24.2024 . i will repeat this message. censored, because at one time i submitted a report on dismissal, which was dismissed from the civil service , so i was not in the register of so-called censored persons, and this was my principled position. i did not intend to return to the civil

service at all, and probably i would never have not a war, and it was important for me to wait for these 10 years and at the end of these 10 years to establish my name through the court, my right to the fact that i am the same person as everyone else, i have the right to work. and i am not a person who is involved in the usurpation of power by the former i was the president for 8 years, i filed a lawsuit and through the court i received a decision that i am not subject to lustration, my only decision is why i decided to return to public service. i believe that every person who has the skills to date, professional skills that can to help those who should be offered and used as much as possible, only then we will choose victory, the media also writes that you especially enjoyed the trust of the former prime minister mykola azarov

, the former prime minister of ukraine had close and friendly relationship relationship with his son oleksiy is it true and is it possible that you are now talking to mykola azarov, i do not know the son of mykola azarov at the time when i was working, he was in charge of the government, he was the deputy head of the government, that is why i am working at the state service i just worked in the state service , i don't have any special trust or personal connections with my son. yaroslav yanushevich, the head of the kherson regional state administration, thank you. thank you very much. the armed forces of ukraine

hit a concentration of russian troops in the kharkiv region with the hurricane rocket salvo system and two storm surge systems. hurricane firing range up to 35 km servicemen of the armed forces of ukraine told radio svoboda about the differences between the two systems and also demonstrated their combat work brings ammunition to one point, further from this point we move this ammunition to the second point where the meeting point of the transport loading vehicle and the combat vehicle there they are reloaded and discharged to a third point in the waiting area, the

so-called when a certain period of time passes, there are several hours, sometimes independence day from the conditions what will be next, they meet in the concentration area, in the waiting area, where they are waiting for the next, in the future, to complete their tasks here, shooting is always from different fire positions are constantly monitored, just like ours, the same with them, and even more so, our target is quite similar, if you take the enemy's side, the target is quite important, and we are the primary target, we can say that's why everything is done as quickly and normally efficiently as possible, this is a missile system volley fire, the artillery part of it is the same as that of the soviet hurricane, but the chassis has already been updated - this is the honor of the catatra, it is more convenient for hurricanes , and the control, if it wasn’t, well, if it wasn’t here, the

control works easily, the automatic transmission, well, two i'm glad that i can say that it's the same as comparing a son and a grandfather here. somewhere along the same lines, we're doing much better first, and well , in general, armored from the cockpit. e-e highly maneuverable targets such as artillery e-e further e-e infantry tanks from the hurricane jet system and two storm systems the ukrainian military will now fire at the

positions of the russian troops in the kharkiv region four shells three seconds shot away we worked at a range of 30 km, we know the results. i am confident in my guys. i am sure that we performed perfectly and the result is always low.

the troops again fired at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant . in the area of ​​the commandant's office of the station, it is, as reported, directly next to the welding station and the storage of radiation sources, according to the company's information, no one was injured as a result of the shelling, five more arrivals occurred in the area of the fire station, which is located not far from the nuclear power plant, previously megate demanded that the russian troops stationed at the station hand it over to ukraine due to the high threat of a nuclear disaster . volodymyr zelenskyi, speaking today via video link at the conference of ukraine's partner countries at the level of defense ministers, said that russia can to provoke the largest accident in history at the zaporizhzhya npp, this will essentially be the use of nuclear weapons without a nuclear strike, for years absolutely no one thought that europe could to be under the threat of a new catastrophe at the nuclear

plant not because someone will violate some safety standards, but because some state will deliberately use the nuclear plant for roads . npp we will talk about its possible outcome further with us live yuriy kostenko minister of environmental protection and nuclear safety of ukraine 1995-1998 i congratulate you good здоровья от please tell me why, on the initiative of russia, a meeting of the un security council is convened to discuss the situation at the zaporizhzhia npp, what does moscow want to say by this? well, moscow will use this platform in order to fully shift the blame for a possible nuclear accident in ukraine, but the question here must be to put

it differently, why did the rich, together with other democratic countries and primarily with ukraine , not initiate a meeting of the un security council dedicated specifically to russia's nuclear terrorism, and it should have to be carried out as soon as the russian troops entered the site of the chernobyl nuclear power plant, and later the zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, all this only confirms the thesis that, unfortunately , many people were not ready for such scenarios, and this is already very bad for this an organization that should monitor all aspects of nuclear terrorism , including the seizure of nuclear power plants. the second thing is that the ukrainian authorities, unfortunately, acted in the person of the nuclear energy agency and the nuclear regulatory inspectorate

inadequately to the threats posed by these sites and in chernobyl and at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power station. so, we conclude that time has already been wasted , and the mega-state showed itself badly in this situation, and the body, which, unfortunately, did not respond to those threats with its actions which were formed by russia, the same applies to the organization of the united nations, in particular, to enslavement. the thing is that the majority of experts, analysts, what kind of regulation there is, as well as the government. therefore, today it is necessary to start from those realities that have already developed, and they have developed extremely no realities, an explosion is a possible explosion everyone reactors at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, why can

this explosion occur due to the loss of water supply and cooling of the reactor units, this was approximately the scenario at one time in 2011 at the fokusima npp in japan, when the tsunami destroyed the entire cooling system of the reactor units and gradually as hydrogen accumulated due to the radiolysis of e- three reactor units exploded at this one of the largest nuclear power plants in japan. so, the scenario of power loss of the zaporizhzhia npp is an absolutely realistic scenario, a terrible scenario, and what will russia nuclear terrorism and not when the reactors explode, but already now this is a very principled matter, a new sanctions package should be formed now, nuclear terrorism in russia, separate from all

other packages specifically for nuclear terrorism in russia, because it is already being carried out, it is no longer blackmail, it is nuclear terrorism, mining of the atomic head stations by various wagnerians means that the scenarios have been launched, the favor has been received from the most insane president putin for such a scenario. therefore, the world must prepare for this disaster. he must counteract those catastrophe, and not to observe and listen to the lies of the un security council, the russians, mr. kostenko, did not understand when such an accident for a project, as it is called, no one even thought to predict, and even more so to establish any preventive measures for its localization. the same applies to the accident on ya sfokusima, the same applies to accidents at other nuclear power facilities that at one time were in other countries. therefore,

it is impossible to clearly say the scale of the accident because the scenario of the development of the accident is unknown, for example, at fokusima it was only an emission of radioactive vapor, they were evacuated to the population, but there is a scenario of a nuclear accident when , due to certain circumstances, a mixture may be thrown out of the reactor plant, what happened at the chornobyl nuclear power plant at the chornobyl nuclear power plant, therefore, theoretically, different scenarios can be allowed, but practice shows that the chernobyl radioactive cloud, which rose to 11 km, circled the globe three times, that is, not even from the atlantic to the urals, but also in other areas, the pollution is accurate the scale has not been studied to this day because , er, the fallout of radioactive substances occurred in fragments, mostly with precipitation, and er,

many countries did not even attach much importance to this. but the fact that millions of people or hundreds of millions or billions of people received one or another load permit after chernobyl the fact that what will happen to the zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant and the terrible consequences to which it can lead, nuclear terrorism in russia is very difficult, i repeat , to predict, even more so pay attention to the fact that there is a war, a war in the conditions of a war during the chernobyl accident during the active phase, more than a million soldiers who were involved in the minimal consequences of the chernobyl nuclear disaster were swept away in this radioactive nuclear maelstrom, what to do now, please tell me when such a terrible accident will happen in god's work, how to localize it, with what forces, on what

scale please tell me, unfortunately, no one is working on this, and i repeat once again. no , energoatom does not issue scenarios, let them be. they may be overestimated, i mean the worst scenario but this is a scenario that the whole world should hear only when the world realizes the scale of what putin is doing, only then will he dare to take those measures that should have been applied to a nuclear terrorist a long time ago, i am for that blackmailer and in general this is putin's madness and that the whole world is watching and horror, but unfortunately it does not respond adequately. i mean the sanctions mechanism and the supply of weapons to ukraine, and it is necessary to work much more efficiently. thank you, mr. kostenko, for your comment on radio svoboda. of environmental protection and nuclear safety of ukraine in 1995-1998, thank you, it covers the entry

of russians with valid schengen visas . visas are not cancelled, but sanctions are imposed on them in the form of a ban on entry to the country, the decision will come into force in a week, the estonian minister clarified that there will be exceptions, in particular, entry will be allowed for diplomats and members of their families, cargo and passenger carriers, holders of schengen visas issued by other countries will still be able to enter the country, but next week the government of estonia intends to discuss ways to ban this. in the european union said that all the member states of the european union should stop issuing visas to russian citizens, the czech minister wants to bring this issue up for discussion at

the meeting of the ministers of foreign affairs of the member states members of the eu, which should take place at the end of august in prague well, is it realistic to say this further with the political scientist and sociologist igor edman, who is joining us from berlin, igor hello , good evening well, the czech republic, which currently holds the eu presidency, has joined the call of other countries, in particular of the baltic states and finland and finland about the ban on the issuance of schengen visas to russia, but is it really possible that such a solution can, er, pass in the european union? well, schrolts has already said that this solution is unrealistic. he does not see the mechanisms of its implementation in general, and how it contradicts the concepts that the

leadership of germany. he does not think that well, as it were , the responsibility of the year lies on all of russia, on all the citizens of russia, he thinks about it, he has repeatedly said that this is putin's war, who dragged the dictators into the future, they could drag their own into this war the country, so i think that the german government either supports this decision. well, eh, they did not hold the russians responsible for the war in ukraine, and in this way, those punished for their support of the war, or silence, or the fault of the exclusion, must lie with the kremlin and putin and his surroundings, the philosophical question is just rough lightning around this mosque, many political scientists and just the inhabitants of facebook mean many different people, i am not here, there is collective guilt, and so on and so on, and i already look for your personal

opinion yes, eh , of course , of course. this terranic regime of putin has been established in the country, and what is more, the regime that turned out to be very bloody in the international plan, which unleashed this war and so on what is this in ukrainian politics , you can repress only one flattening of the russians around putin, that is, competent fighters who are called the invisible front all their lives, so it means that in the exact times of the soviet union, in the times of fascist germany, they constantly asked, just

this unity yes moral and political the unity of the soviet people, as the soviet council said , will come out and grow an opposition that could appeal, that could interfere with its regions , somehow i implement my toothless fees. well, in fact, but it was always directed to the western countries, here are the soviet union and the country. it was only for the hitlerite collection to provoke the relations of fascist italy, germany, and the situation. as a result of the efforts, this is a film of many years of western countries on the struggle against communists against communists under the european mercy regime , including zaporozhye and within the russian position on the same sydensky movement and this we create , let's remember the history of the second game war, that is, you are the collapse of the musalin regime, yes, when he will be

sanitizing himself as their defender, that is, there are many rules and competent irtsionalny around the power, just like we have in this unity of the fascist state split and distinguish the groups of the population and the trends, the forces that can plan the criminal authorities that can theoretically not be, and tomorrow, who learned the 40th year of the second year, as if in the 43rd world they fed the regime, they did not carry it the fascist council will go and vote against him, such a criminal could have passed something like how the security system voted against the way, however, it happened so that in the situation in history it will definitely be early with it, everything changes, it happens in one day and it is necessary. in order to put pressure on all of russia, so that we can competently fight against your regime, i rely on a certain part of the russian city.

from berlin thank you well and liberty life will be back on the air as usual tomorrow, almost 7 p.m. in ukraine news time on the espresso tv channel greetings in the studio of iryna koval russian troops once again shelled the zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant the invaders hit not far from the first power unit the occupiers damaged the household pumping station extensive smoke was also recorded nearby, the situation is worsening because radiation sources are located very close by. and several radiation sensors were also damaged, stressed the energy atom before that, the occupiers ransacked the fire station nearby, earlier there were five attacks near the

commandant's office of the station and another five attacks in the area
