will resume aviation production and ukrainian aircraft will again be present at most of the world's airports and what are the main types of aircraft, what types of aircraft are currently the basis of the ukrainian air force su-27 fighters - this is a heavy fighter, gaining superiority in the air, well, gaining superiority on this type means that in 1991 it is already a difficult, difficult, difficult task. we have a multi-purpose light fighter of the mig-29 type. su-25 aircraft storm su-25 well, of course, we have a certain number of military transport aircraft that ensure the combat activity of our air

forces. well, not all of the air force, but our armed forces, transferring there reserves, spare parts, which carry out rapid air transportation, in general, we do not have a structure our air force does not meet western standards , almost all european countries have one main combat aircraft, we have five types of aircraft . well, the su-25, i am opening, it was the first flight of the 75th the year is february 22 - i was born in this year, you know, i'm already 47 years old, and it's been half a century since our main plane, valery, and in the west, there's also a similar story, for half a century, the main plane has been in use, so you'll be amazed, but do you remember in in the 18th year, the americans flew to us, i specially went and looked at their planes, yes, their youngest plane was

4 years older than our su-27, i thought you were four years older than me. i mean, valery, that's it it was a joke, i mean that it might be possible. excuse me, i was thinking about my insensitivity, i thought that maybe this plane was four years older than you. years well, but still on the 75th, but it still means production, but after all, they have been modernized several times, they have the medlife upgrade program, that is, all the time these planes undergo modernization of their weapons equipment and some systems of improvement of some systems, for example, self-defense systems, the plane, well about the on-board defense systems of the aircraft, the improvement

of the radar on the capabilities of the radar equipment on board these aircraft, that is, despite the age, it depends not so much on the age as on the ability to maintain the combat aircraft in the modern condition, a few more questions, it is clear what we have well, yes, plus or minus. yes, but i would like to outline what our enemies have in order to, uh, um , well, how to do their work in the sky, roughly speaking, uh, there is information that they were seriously frightened by an attack, maybe you in the crimea peninsulas are moving their planes to the mainland , just to the russian federation, we will say yes, and they also have a problem with pilots, as far as is known, and for a certain time they even agitate civilian aviators to join e-e military programs, in particular, participation in the war, what

is known about this and how are they superior now in the sense of aviation, and they are superior in that they even have the same su-27s, they have already been modernized twice , but it’s just a type of su-27, and they already have it, it’s passed twice , it’s passed, which means the modernization of weapons and the radar, well, the hydrogen management system. let's say that, in addition, they have already created su-30 fm 135 aircraft, the latest fighter jets, on its base. in addition, they already stated that the fifth-generation su-30 aircraft is participating in hostilities against ukraine. 57 well, i think that's enough here . i said about it, it means. to compare them, you understand, they are simply military weapons. they have missiles . practically all missiles operate according to the principle of "fired , forgot

." took him to accompany him and ran over him missile and quickly leaves the target zone. in order not to receive a missile in response, our plane has to fly towards the enemy plane for a long time and illuminate its missile with the radar so that it, well, practically until the moment of hitting the enemy plane, this means that it stays in the zone for a very long time damage and a very high chance of being shot down or hit yuriy thank you for your very brief answer, i wanted to ask you how much this could change the situation on the battlefield if we keep these planes and our pilots now obviously already are undergoing training in the states on them, plus, well , there have been no official announcements about the training here yet, but this will change the situation radically, because we will no longer , er, mean, er, fight with the russians

on equal terms. and if we also get flying radars , then we we will completely complete the creation of modern air defense and another very important moment with the acquisition of f-16 flying radars. we will close the issue of shelling our cities with cruise missiles because most of them will go astray. thank you valery romanenko, an aviation expert was with us we remind you that today is aviation day in ukraine. we congratulate everyone involved in this holiday . you are ours, as they say. well, let's move on to other informational reasons. especially since it is very worrying for ukrainians, in particular, the words that were spoken by pope francis. we are talking about what he expressed, let's express our regret for the death of the daughter of such a russian philosopher of ideological development

. in principle, she did not see anything bad in the fact that people are being killed here, but it is clear that ukrainians were outraged by this, meanwhile, assessments may be different and i would like to return all this to a constructive direction of commenting on the situation, that is why andriy is in touch with us now jurash , ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of ukraine to the vatican mr. andrew, congratulations glory to ukraine glory to the heroes, thank you for the invitation, because the topic is really very important and should be systematically and comprehensively discussed and understood well, i don't know here, it's sensitive, very sensitive because the concept of the infallibility of the pope, uh, it's me as a person, in principle, i'm not very interested in any religious issues, but i understand the main thing, nevertheless, well, ukrainians. it seems to me that they are quite rightly

asking the question why so? similar things to ukraine. even after the visit, there seems to be no fusion, at least in the pu space, there appeared a hint of such a possibility regarding non- obligation, the pope is infallible in matters of faith when he speaks officially, in this case it is not possible to associate with this concept of incompleteness. this was one of the statements, besides, uh, first of all, i want to say that of course, the reaction of the embassy would have been within an hour, we expressed our regret and disappointment, and even, for example, the reuters agency immediately submitted information that this is unprecedented the case when some embassy to the holy see officially and publicly expresses disagreement with the folder in some concept that he expressed. it really was extremely widely disagreed here

. during the press conference with the minister of foreign affairs of italy, and later in a special statement , i speculated even more strongly about the same messages, and i think this is very correct, and the ministry should understand the mood of society to reflect them and not broadcast them. but in this context, i would like to draw more clearly how these words were said, it is absolutely clear to me that it was some kind of deliberate manipulation on the part of someone from the pope's entourage who provided unreliable information, first of all, these words were not in the text that the pope was supposed to read. broke away from the piece of paper, we were present, a huge delegation of ukrainians was on this general drive, and the archbishop of the greek catholic church dionistis lyakhovych, the head of the italian exarchate of the ugcc and many priests, he broke away

from the text and started talking on his own, hmm, it was obvious that the pope does not fully understand what he spoke about innocent death after his thesis about children, and in fact he did not understand what he was saying about a woman who is a conscious repeater of imperial russian ideology, who is already 30 years old, who is a completely formed individual and who actually symbolizes the tragedy of hatred and war, and he spoke of her as an innocent child. so , in fact, he did not fully understand this situation. he did not call her by name, it was connected, so to speak, with previous messages from the forest. of course, it is not liberates from the general context, and even the second step, which is extremely strong, was taken by the ukrainian state and is also unprecedented in the history of

diplomatic relations with the vatican. vizsvaldas kulbakas to ukraine in order to express his position of dissatisfaction and simulate the situation so that nothing of the kind would happen in the future. that is, i tried to do this and present the general context of how this thesis was expressed, which caused outrage in the ukrainian environment and here in italy, because here the community is very powerful ukrainian, in fact, there were a lot of signals thank you, that is, pope francis did not know that daria dugina is not a child and 30 years old and that she is a propagandist, he thought that she was some kind of small a girl in moscow died in a car, it looks like he was given unreliable incomplete information and he

tried, from his spiritual religious ecclesiastical position, so to speak, to relay the idea that any death, even one, is an ordinary tragedy and this is really so if it were absolutely normal circumstances and when on the same day we see 25 innocent deaths in chaplinka, we see that among these 25 deaths two children were published yesterday that in total the deaths of three hundred and seventy-seven have already been reliably confirmed of ukrainian children at the hands of godless russian murderers, it is clear that these are immeasurable things, and in our statement, which we also posted on twitter at the time, it is, sorry, i will repeat myself, but it became one of the most powerful facts that were discussed by the italian and the press of the holy see during the following days, the thesis was basic, you can’t put murderers and those who suffer from their actions on the same level. see how the vatican treats the fact that

they even know that pope francis is now called the third pope in ukraine, implying on the fact that the third year is moscow and he is the pope of moscow, the first and second direct analogies are also now being mentioned in ukraine about the history of pope pius vii, who during the second world war did not condemn nazism and the holocaust. and so in a letter to the bishop to the bishop of berlin in the 43rd year, he said that the church could not publicly condemn the holocaust for fear of causing more evil, that is, the analogy here is very direct with the current situation . first of all, regarding i am sure that the vatican very clearly monitors absolutely all the messages that come from ukraine and from us that the embassies therefore all these

narratives that you are talking about, they are known here as a reaction . employees of the communications decasteries andreatornielli eh in and it is possible on or in their comment and listen and read in the ukrainian translation tried to give an interpretation and in and interpret these words of the pope in the context that vertican has never been the same in relation to russia and ukraine, he has always supported ukraine much closer, he understands all the suffering, so to speak, but in any case, this statement by monsignor torni is very important because it shows that the vatican understands the existence of this issue of this problem and it is already justified and regarding the pope there are 12 that is, i apologize i was wrong yes yes

yes 12th of course and this opinion was voiced here more than once and a lot was said about it on various occasions and we understand and i i think that there is an e-e position and a pi the 12th position now of pope francis is, so to speak, connected with the general concept of the behavior of the apostolic capital in any wars, that is, the position that was developed since the first world war, from the time of pope benedict the 15th, that is, the prevailing opinion is and it determined the position of kyiv on the 12th and even now it models the current situation that the apostolic capital remains, so to speak , above the battlefield, it does not interfere in the direct course of events, it is only involved in humanitarian actions and in supporting the who is suffering and precisely in this context we

constantly emphasize that there is a certain tradition, but you must be aware of who is suffering, who has victims and who is absolutely on the side that feels all this diabolical anger of the aggressor who intervened in ours , came to our earth and brought these mass deaths, one of the users had a conversation with the italians themselves, who see the situation with the pope and his pity for dugina in a slightly different way, and because of her death, they say that you never understood, the pope feels sorry for this person because he did too little for so that her eyes were opened to the truth, to the world as it is for good, and he prays more for these reasons

. i can't get it into my head, it means that the death of duhina happened a few days ago, and in principle, the words of the pope regarding her death happened a little later, the gap in time was absolutely appropriate, and hmm, it is a little surprising that the pope during this time did not quite understand what she is, who she is, what is it it's not just a child, it's first and second please tell me again, maybe this is too harsh a question. but nevertheless, the fact that pope francis is actually armed with aires, that is, a person is a little more distant from a possible understanding of the situation in europe, this somehow plays a role in his judgments and approaches there. i completely share your opinion that this factor cannot help but influence the pope, he is a representative of another continent, another reality, his youth, his

active years were in the 70s and 80s, it was a very specific part of the history of argentina and in general, this continent has traditionally been in confrontation with, in particular, the united states of america and other states of the european contingent. therefore, it cannot help but leave an impression. the pope understands, for example, all the nuances of the relationship between argentina and paraguay , or between paraguay and uruguay. what for us? from a european perspective i am not always clear, but instead, he probably does not fully understand in the depths of his heart what is happening and what is the nature of the relationship between russia and ukraine and i i agree and accept your position that this factor cannot help but affect his

awareness of reality for him, relatively speaking if we look at the european centric and our vision determines an absolutely clear awareness of the historical realities of the eastern european context and all others who for him from a completely distant perspective yes so to speak, the angle is approximately the same for russia and ukraine, uh, there are a lot of attempts on the part of the ukrainian diaspora and on the part of church leaders from our side to explain this and understand what you but it is obvious that there are people who have the opportunity to be with the pope every day to bring him certain information, and as i already said, he did not understand that until the end of all the details of this situation , he is even sure that he did not know the name i am of this arc, when he spoke about it, he knew

only some general fact that somewhere far from the front line, a person died, and it could be motivated to some extent by military actions, and he, without understanding and understanding all the defining components, tried it publicly with articulate which, of course, is not absolutely acceptable for ukraine, for ukrainian society, and i think it should probably be said here about this thing about the perception and clear expression of ukraine's position, as perhaps the biggest context of this situation, the voice of the country has never been so powerful and was not so strong and in the context of all the complex moments that determine the relationship between ukraine and ukraine. at the moment, i think that this is a factor that will be taken into account by the vatican, and

it is clear that after that any number of things will happen. will not be so unambiguously articulated without taking into account the position of ukraine and andrew, well, in order for pope francis to understand specifically personally , it is necessary that our position be communicated as closely as possible and as clearly as possible . she is still there, and i’m sorry, andrei, and i will also remind you that argentina not only had a conflict with the state, but also fought with great britain for the falklands in 1982 , being the first to attack the british garrison there on it is also important for these islands, and he said when he said that there is a specific view, and in this context, of course, the close alliance between the united states and great britain also determines the

united states and britain. the factor is also reflected to a certain extent in the position and regarding reporting. believe me, it is now working at all levels. a very powerful system for us and communication has been more than 60 meetings in the last six months absolutely with all the current representatives of the apostolic capital, there are many such positions, our time coincided with our discussion. we sincerely thank you for your participation for your comment. andriy rush is our ambassador of ukraine in the vatican. in latvia, it happened, er, in riga specifically, obviously, some kind of decommunization is going on, a very healthy process is now in the baltic countries, and we are in touch with us in this connection

, edward smi, the deputy mayor of riga from international issues e hello good morning, dear ukrainian friends, i was warned by the editors that it is better to speak russian, it was a trap. i think that edward perfectly understands the ukrainian language, something in a-a for now, in russian or in english, probably later the monument to the liberators in riga was dismantled, tell me please edward, what did it cost, in general? i don't know the nerve in finance, what is the possible public approval and support, and most importantly, what is the atmosphere in connection with it now in the city of all our residents

latvia is very much relieved now because, well, several generations of people in latvia have been waiting for this. pobedy park, but it was victory park, and when we gained independence in 1918, yes, we had the battle of sbermont, and that's why this park was built. so , where did they make such a thing? i don't know what the price was. the solution is a-a and so on, edward. and how many more similar monuments are left in latvia as a whole, and what are the plans

for them? well, we have a decision of the parliament that such monuments must be removed by november 15, but with this large monument of the occupation, we have already hurried to do it this week and другие памятный тоже сейчас немеается, well, with the nose of a similar symbol of soviet - totalitarianism, the t-34 tank in the estonian arveya was released, eh. they announced almost a curfew, the police took part after the demolition of this tank, people carried flowers there, it is not clear why to this and to the place where this tank stood, what was the attitude of the citizens of latvia and the residents of riga to the nose of your monument a sufficient number

of russian-speaking citizens, please, yes, finally, many russian-speaking people, but i see that those who were against went to some kind of meeting and asked to do it. the population also understands everything very clearly, there are politicians who are about putin, too, uh, i think that agents and russia, yes, how would uh work in latvia, but they, yes, they spread all kinds of prize and price meetings on social media, but others they simply understand that this is logical, yes, yes, please tell me if there is criminal or administrative responsibility in

latvia. this is exactly why these calls for activity in social networks, for calls to the russian world, go to rallies, and organize protest actions and to call on putin to send troops there, conditionally speaking. oh, that's what started here in donbas, that if there is any criminal or administrative responsibility, similar calls for russian peace in latvia, and of course, those who behave very non-aggressively and so on, our security services work there were some provocations with these people. this is just the day when o-o fell er-e this is a monument oberesk a-a well, our security agencies worked very well a-a m-m of course we ask m-m how to preserve a -and peace of mind in the people and very clearly, too, we will think through all the

steps before redefining edward latvia recently suspended the issuance of weights for citizens of the russian federation what is the attitude of the citizens to this decision of the government, and your personal one, are there any protests from the side? russian-speaking citizens and neo-citizens of latvia who live there in latvia when we make these decisions i don't think there are such principles the gates of hell just opened, and the regime that became the regime of terrorism, and in reality the fascist regime, they kill ukrainian children, mothers, sons, and it is necessary to stop this if it is not

stopped, then this spread will not stop. we were the first to symbolically support uh, i am a quick act, we raised the reshki flag at home already on february 14th - it was the day after well, to raise the plugin, the solution is about russia is recognized as a country of terrorism that supports terrorism and other solutions. we simply do this because we understand that it is logical. uh, at every action that

appears, but well, i understand that a very large majority, yes, they clearly understand, uh, who attacked whom, that is, russia, ukraine, what they are saying there, and what our steps are logical, and it's understandable, edward, thank you very much for the work you do, thank you for everything, your country, and especially for the support of the ukrainians in riga, too, now a lot. we hope that they will all return to ukraine, but i think that riga has become good and warm for them. a place where you can hide from the war edward smiltons, the deputy mayor of riga for international affairs, was in touch with us in latvia healthy decommunization continues and the monuments of the occupation of this country are being destroyed by soviet dogs
