occupiers, during the past day, the russian troops launched eight missile and 19 air strikes , carried out 86 attacks and rocket artillery systems on military and civilian objects of the ukrainian state in kryvyi rih, 112 private of residential buildings and summer cottages , the repair of the damaged water pipe in the areas of the military town and makulan is underway. i would like to remind you that yesterday the russian invaders launched rocket attacks waterworks near kryvyi rih at the same time the russians continue to lose manpower and equipment in ukraine as of the morning of september 15, russia lost 53.85 people in ukraine in the last day alone, the armed forces of ukraine eliminated 200 invaders with the beginning of the great war, the russians have already lost 2193 tanks in ukraine 4682 armored combat vehicles 1295

of counteroffensive in kherson oblast, give it to kharkiv oblast. i would like to say that in kherson oblast, too, they have advanced 100 km, but so far in kharkiv oblast , president volodymyr zelenskyi announced this while he was in izyum yesterday. he announced that today almost the whole area is occupied. this was an unprecedented movement of our soldiers. 400 settlements , 150,000 ukrainians, and as hanna malyar, deputy minister of defense of ukraine, says, almost 8,000 m² of territory has been liberated from the russian occupiers. mr. romana, can this be considered the counter-offensive in the kharkiv region was the beginning of the great turning point in the russian-ukrainian war, about which we have talked a lot over the past few months. this is truly unprecedented for an offensive operation, an operation that has the operational depth of an offensive with all

the resulting consequences from my point of view of course, we can count on the turning point in ukraine's war with russia, there really could be a lot more, russia is still quite a strong country with resources, but the fact is that our troops have shown that they can not only hold fast to stand on the defensive and advance and effectively advance and beat the enemy where i really think is a turning point because we are here with our command of the supreme commander-in-chief of the commander-in-chief of the lower level commanders was a very serious serious choice and was a very serious challenge it is to plan an operation and , er, to make it so that it was carried out effectively. well, just imagine if we once again started

to advance. planned planned two directions started in two directions and developed an offensive where we had success this is very important in general as well as for a soldier on the battlefield for directly commanders who once again believed in their strength that it is possible to fight and for our population a and it is also very important. this is for our international partners. i am currently in the united states in the city of washington. every day i meet with a business trip. every day i meet with congressmen who are directly responsible for allocating funds in ukraine and for the allocation of economic aid for arms in ukraine, and i tell you honestly every day, meeting with someone there or just uh, around the capitol somewhere,

meeting a senator or a congressman, the first thing we hear, ukrainians, we are with you, uh, the counteroffensive near kharkov is a historical moment for which you are very we are grateful that you have done something that no country in the world has done in the last 70 or 80 years, that's why the whole world knows about us, they want to help us and want to be with us. spend a speech asking about our successes at the front well, of course, mr. roman, it is interesting how in this situation, when they try to interpret these events in moscow, the kremlin constantly says that it was all planned, that we did everything here as we wanted that's why we see that they left hundreds of pieces of equipment in kharkiv oblast so that it was a planned retreat. well, of course, no one

left this expensive equipment on the territory of the ukrainian state and did not give a drapak e-e from kharkiv oblast there towards belgorod oblast or the so-called lpr. you are not the dnr talk about what the reaction was, how you are perceived by american officials or government officials who lead the united states of america, who talk about what happened on the battlefield, in particular in the kharkiv region, uh, president joe biden also uh, he said that the ukrainians have made significant progress, there is still a long way to go time, but the president of america says that it is difficult to talk about this turning point yet. is it a turning point, what is a turning point, considering the reaction of both russia and the united states of america? what can you say? hm, in what state now, or let’s say this way, the

russians perceive it as their defeat and the americans, and this is the moderation of the americans in commenting on our events, they still, er, leave this leeway so that russia has enough resources to er, beat on ukrainian issues, in particular on critical infrastructure, or why they don't have , let's say, that euphoric fervor that currently reigns in ukraine, as for the statements of the american president, i think that he is speaking correctly only for his audience why now i will explain, for example, when talking with democrats and republicans, sometimes you hear from your mother that, for example, it is very difficult for them to explain with their own case that it is necessary to help

ukraine, they say and why should we help, and they say, despite the fact that well, we we especially remember the republicans when there was a question of what , when trump was president, they didn't say that there america is in the first place, then all other questions and many voters sometimes ask the question why, that's why their representatives explain to them and they say that every time it becomes more difficult to explain it, we understand that this is all, in the long run, people can already create themselves from this and ask specific questions, they help us directly when the father talks about it. if he told everything, the turning point came. well, you will choose tomorrow, for example, in the states they said that and then why should we help more well, a couple of months at the most and that's it therefore, with this phrase, when he makes it clear that ukraine still needs a lot of help, the war is not over yet, russia is a resource country and

it's really hard to predict something, so from the point of view of being here in the united states, from the point of view of domestic politics, i think that's the right phrase. despite the fact that we see the prospects of the fact that we have started to hit the enemy and conduct successful operations. i think that our partners, that's right. must communicate this to their internal audience so that people understand that this is a very complex war and it cannot be won by one effective counterattack, more weapons are needed, economic humanitarian aid is needed, and everything that follows from this, that as for our enemies, as for the russians, well, i think that there is nothing to do here, we see how their propaganda works, when they say white to black, even white they say black, and that's peace, yes, we remember the eagle and clearly work according to our

propaganda methods of course what can they say, they um, as a matter of fact, as a matter of fact, they were dealt a crushing blow in the kharkiv region, where they firstly lost a lot of weapons, they lost a lot of personnel, they lost territory, and most importantly, they sought authority in the eyes of everyone of the world and i say this once again because by coming to capture us in three days they have already shown that they are incapable of doing it. and now ukraine, meanwhile , is striking at the russian army, in fact it is changing the world order and the schedules of the world order because those who were once called the strongest armies and conducted their own, tried to conduct their own regional policy, geopolitics with the help of that. look , we have an army behind us. if we use it, now we show that it is not the same army. and if you can't, you can.

deal with it when you are fresh there, as they say, mr. roman, ukraine is not such a devil as it is portrayed, it is about the russian army, about the influence of the russians in general on world geopolitics, meanwhile, one of the issues is currently being held in the european parliament - it is a ukrainian issue, where it will be about the violation of the rights of ukrainians in the context of the forced deportation of ukrainian civilians to russia and the non- forced adoption of ukrainian children in russia, you are now seeing live the hall of the european parliament, that is, the whole world is talking about ukraine about aggression russia against ukraine well, of course, they are trying to find levers of influence on the russian state, and

in particular on vladimir putin, so that he, well, at least adhere to the rules of waging war. although, of course, the best help in the world is for ukraine. this is a weapon that p. roman has already mentioned that the united states of america is preparing the next batch of military aid and this was announced by the coordinator of strategic communications at the white house national security radio, john kirby, eh. he said that there are discussions in real time about what uh the military needs of the ukrainian state are now arising and these needs will be met by the united states of america. we are talking about the fact that military aid to ukraine in the amount of 600 million dollars should arrive literally these days. i will remind you that the last package of military aid for almost 700 million dollars has arrived

did they provide kiev last week? so, mr. roman , what what? hmm, can you say about the aid provided by the united states of america to ukraine? well, of course, about the new budget for 2023, because the ukrainian government of shmygel has already announced that half of the 2023 budget will be spent on defense and security, which is more than four times more than what was budgeted for this year. at what rate do we need to increase the defense budget in order to perfectly meet the challenges of national security and of defense in connection with the russian-ukrainian war, as

for the united states, they really supply us with weapons, and indeed, every day when we correct, we explain what weapons are needed below, we do this in coordination with the embassy of ukraine here in the united states and uh, we tell them what we need, we are really convinced that we need it, and we are talking about modern tanks with uh, night vision systems so that it is possible to conduct operations not only during the day and at night, about highmars, about a larger number of uh, howitzers, including self-propelled and well, the americans agree with us because we have for the people , we have certain problems with the sound, it is located in washington, so forgive the tv viewers, the

sound was a little bad, i hope. now we will restore contact with mr. roman, he is part of the ukrainian delegation is in the united states of america and is conducting negotiations with government officials, congressmen and people who make decisions regarding the aid of the united states of america to the ukrainian state of the u.s. on the screen you can see the meeting in the european parliament today. and the adoption of our children, you know that in mariupol, a lot of children were collected and taken to russia, to rostov and russian bridge, and then the adoption procedure of our children took place, which, to put it simply, russia stole from us, there is roman kostenko again, mr. roman, please

give me one more time the connection between the continents is unstable , so let's return to the aid of the united states of america and to the defense budget of ukraine, what is it it should ideally be how the deliveries really go, we say once again, we are talking about what kind of weapons we need, we will talk about it in clear coordination with ours and in the united states, we talked about it with ambassador oksana markarova and clearly brings the moment, after all, about the combat vehicles that we need, about the tanks that we need, especially the night vision systems that can conduct night offensive operations, uh, let's say, why is it very important that we met with the hetmans, in particular , the appropriations committee, with the head of the committee, which is currently lying the bill is a new bill that

will be voted on at the end of the month in the e-e capitol, it is about providing ukraine with the next portion of aid for approximately 11 billion dollars billions and this is very important, therefore it is important to receive this aid in particular, a large part of them goes specifically to military aid, and in particular, then to decide on the types of weapons that we need, which we need to purchase or, let’s say, take in the united states, and which ones are on foreign markets, where do we need them, which ones do we need specifically to repel russian aggression, what concerns our budget well, we really need uh, we have no choice but to increase it but the truth is that everything we are buying now is such a non-comprehensive approach, it is a reaction to the threat of the russian federation already when we win and we will rebuild our army and our

defense-industrial complex, it will be necessary to clearly define the main weapons and weapons of deterrence and long-range missiles, which must be the basis of our air defense and we must produce all this ourselves. in no case can we -e to be dependent on our e-e partners that's why it's who is ahead, well, the budget of course it has to be military because we have a war going on there are no roads to build e-e let's say how we recently accepted the road fund there to resume work again it's from my points of view in general, some wrong corruption decisions, this is a time of war, now everything should be directed to the defense and social protection of the population of those people who suffered from the russian aggression on the eve of your visit to washington in kyiv anthony blinken secretary of state of the united states of america after his arrival , the mass media started spreading the topic

that he had arrived and advised the ukrainian leadership to go to some specific negotiations or to start negotiations, and this topic of the negotiations is about this that western leaders are now trying in some way to influence the e.e. kremlin and kyiv on the banking side in order to start some kind of negotiation process . deputy prime minister for european integration stefanyshina says that, well, during the week, russians officially and unofficially, various people went to e official kyiv and they said that well, in principle, we are not against sitting down at the negotiating table, but we have demands and we will not give up on these demands. zelenskyi said that kyiv will not tolerate any ultimatums, ukraine never will talk to russia in the language of an ultimatum. did you hear someone in washington say that well, sooner or later , anyway, you will have to agree on something with

russia, sooner or later, the topic of the talks will still be on the agenda of your policy, from the president's rhetoric, i hear what he really says about the fact that there will be no victories and i think that this is right , especially after the success we had when we did not sit down at the negotiating table if we did not all negotiate when we had a difficult situation and we retreated in all directions and stabilized front now they even launched a counterattack here, well, it doesn't make any sense now. we are in order to sit down at the negotiating table, and we should at least take away all our territories, then we can already talk about something now in russia, and russia is trying to somehow save itself and i am sure that it will be the language of ultimatums, but there is no point in talking to them now about our partners, then i practically did not hear anything about the negotiations, everyone is euphoric from our

victories . in deaf to defense and constantly russia will push us a little further somewhere in the east, oh when we showed that we can still advance to win back our territories, the question somehow went away, eh. to be included in this victory and consider themselves somehow included by the fact that they help me with economic and weapons and they consider it parts, they consider it and uh, their victory, where were they tangential where did they invest and this is theirs, they will say this they take it very seriously and are happy about our victories, mr. colonel, how and what do the americans say about how long they can help us and whether this will cause some kind of protests within their own country or at least people

will feel an increase in prices or their utility bills will go up and the russian federation informational and psychological special operations are usually very successfully carried out abroad, will this not be used to change or, let's say, prevent biden from running for a second term turn to the president to ask the right questions, because actually talking to them they say that the russian federation is very serious about its propaganda even here, in the united states, influencing the local population, look at your problems here, here are social, here are economic, and you... are you helping ukraine, where is ukraine, why is it needed and what is it, and our partners really talk about the fact that they will always help us, we understand that, of course, on such a scale as they are , we should use it now, it may not be

always we are sure that there will be help for at least 24 years, it is the biden administration, and then no one can predict how, for example, there will be democrats or some other president, he can return a different policy, but the fact that we now have help and promises for the near future for the perspective of at least the president's term, this is the way it is, that's why i hope that nothing will change from this in the near future, we will receive help and support from our partners and when they ask us, they say to us about our voters that sometimes they ask questions, i already tell them well, i tell almost everyone and you make such an argument ukraine ukraine, which in 1996 refused the third nuclear weapons potential in the world, it clearly went under

guarantees, including the united states. it was well in principle, the main country. okay, we now consider the aggressor country to be britain. we remember the main and er connections of the state, and therefore for now , fulfilling our guarantees, even i consider it incomplete er, let's say incomplete. because here no, it is not american units that are fighting, and at least giving us weapons - this is just a demonstration in this world of a video about america as a great country that keeps its word and, er, adheres to the guarantees that they give. if this is not done now, then tomorrow the whole world will understand that it is not quality, world guarantees do not work and you need to have weapons that can protect - defend yourself because the country will defend itself, this is the country itself, and now tomorrow all countries will move towards having nuclear weapons. and it will be much more expensive then and much more dangerous.

we give them arguments. they agree with them and we will say that this is the job of our diplomats and he, as politicians, is to communicate with our partners and constantly make arguments. why should they not abandon us? thank you, mr. roman, for including us from washington. i wish you good negotiations and a successful return. return home all the best to you this was a novel kostenko people's deputy of ukraine colonels of the sbu a person who, with a weapon in his hands , worked in the mykolaiv direction from february 24, 2022, friends, we work in live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our platforms in youtube and facebook, for those who are currently watching us live, please like this video and comment on this video, subscribe to our channels on social networks. and remember that we are working for you 24 hours a day 7 days a week and
