education of only 20 farmers, respectively, only 20% of the area will be sown, and this is even with the correction of some military realities there, where fields in mykolaiv oblast are constantly being shelled and kharkiv oblast is now, in principle, not suitable for agricultural production, but i repeat. let’s say that even these 20% of farmers can sow only because um, how is grain exported there, according to which money is spent on preparation for sowing if you didn't have a grain corridor , we wouldn't care what you're doing well, let's tell our agricultural sector to carry out sowing work on winters, respectively, would be as impressive as the hypothetical upa or half. we would cease to be an export-oriented country, and accordingly, when we do not have an export-oriented agricultural sector, then the history of the 2000s, when literally billions of hryvnias went to support farmers from the state budget at the exchange rate of 5 hryvnias , begins per dollar, and it ended with gigantic losses. now imagine why the gigantic type of agricultural production, even against the

background of the large and expensive defense that we are forced to endure in the literal sense, we can still even draw the conclusion that the launch of the grain corridor makes it easier for us in a long-term plan to finance the economy for defense costs, which concerns some of our prospects. well, sometimes there is talk of the option of opening the mykolayiv port, because if it is not surprising, it is these mykolayiv port complexes, i.e. mykolaiv directly, the private port of nikatera and the port of olvia were the largest grain storage facilities in ukraine, which shows that it was there that the chinese state-owned kofko company, but taking into account the fact that the russians are constantly shelling ochakiv, which is, in fact , the way out of mykolaiv, so far it seems impossible to start transshipment of grain from this port. it turns out that we must first liberate kherson

, drive the russians back to the temporarily occupied crimea , and then there may already be talk of resuming transshipment of grain there for some reason already for this explanation the procedure for an ordinary viewer, how is a decision made when we are talking about tactical nuclear weapons on submarines already there, from making a decision to its implementation, what are the weak links in this process and can, well, in general, how will this happen based on permanent procedures for planning the use of tactical nuclear weapons in the russian federation, well, first of all, i want to say that nuclear weapons can actually be carried by all ships of the black sea fleet of the missile boat class and above, that is, the actual luba missile can be located on board a russian

ship. it can deliver a nuclear warhead, plus you can add to that more torpedoes, because 533 mm torpedoes can also be a variant of a nuclear weapon, and of course, submarines of the 636.3 project can also carry missiles caliber as well as torpedoes, well, before, for example, there were ships that could even throw underwater charges, as well as a nuclear part from helicopters. well, i think that now they are no longer there, but this is a threat, well, frankly speaking , they had such and such systems on ships but well i do not know the procedure itself. well, it is true that the

supreme commander-in-chief of the russian armed forces, putin, gives the order to apply it, and without his instructions , nothing will be done. especially since we know that now he actually gives all tactical orders to his commanders in the combat zone. such a special order. i think that there are several designated persons in the chain of decision-making. and this is me. this is exactly the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the russian federation. this is apparently the minister of defense, the chief of the general staff, and... well, the commander of the district and commander photo apparently and when the commander receives there a certain e-e certain document where there is a confirmation by closed means here is carried out before the start preparation, this is not an indication and

striking, but it is such a very complicated procedure. i think that at least at the present time and they refrain from having just nuclear weapons on board, and, well, an example of that is the cruiser slava, even in soviet times, or rather moscow, as it was now called there for the last 10 years, and here , on this cruiser, the glory berdyansky chas there have always been nuclear weapons. now, i think there is no such thing because they also take certain factors into account there, and i think that despite the fact that there is speculation about the use, they clearly understand the consequences, political, economic, all the consequences. and by the way, it is very positive that the united states of america and great britain nato gave its answer quite clearly and ambiguously on this. but, again, the procedure is technically complex, it is possible, and i think

that they understand the political consequences, and the lower the level of military application, the more therefore, i think that it will be very similar. if this is the solution, then it will not be very, very not easy, but technically it is possible and it is very dangerous. well, our military intelligence speaks of the possibility of using tactical weapons, and here is the former commander the commander of the us armed forces in europe, general perehodges, says that this is unlikely. but it was he who said this phrase that if russia uses nuclear weapons against ukraine , the pentagon can destroy russian military bases in crimea, it is not necessarily there, it should be there a nuclear response, and in this way significantly reduce the potential of the russians in the occupied territories, uh,

ahead, andrei, in your opinion, how would it happen from the point of view if the united states destroyed russian military facilities in the crimea, with what arsenal, with what capabilities? well, i want to say that conventional weapons are american and western. in general , they are much more powerful than soviet or russian conventional weapons, and the experience of using such systems of the armed forces of ukraine has proven this. so we have them in service now somewhere there are about 30 heimers systems, and we see that well, how much well, that they actually work, well, ten times, let's say, ten times the size , and the combat strength exceeds the same number of a-a units. there in the old soviet salvo systems , if we take a 155-mm

m-37 artillery installation, we see that in order to achieve a fire effect, there are 10 times less shells than soviet up to 52 mm guns, that is, here we are, well, there are such systems and they are uh well, for example, the same tamahawk missiles that can shoot they shoot at coastal e-e objects, take it, but they are high-precision rockets as an object, and the same rockets are used for attacks, all of which e-e shoot from systems of himers and mls, but they are also very high-precision, they have a lot of modifications and the radius of their actions there there are also very, very different air -based missiles, that is, i think that the modern arsenal will allow this task to be solved, and the objects that are meant to be located in these bases are quite

well known because, well, now modern means of satellite observation allow them to discover, well, let's say very quickly, something that was actually impossible 50 years ago, when, by the way, in sevastopol , it was even forbidden to take photos there during, for example, walks. and on a boat there through the bay of sevastopol , i remember it. and because the capacity of the satellites is so high. well, they make very high-quality. these are the surveillance pictures from space . that is, the arsenal is like this and in fact, it is a modern conventional weapon. in terms of its capabilities, it is already approaching, let's say yes, let's say even, well, to nuclear, but of course it is not the same as

general hodges, just in that interview he said that most likely this commercial weapon will be used, but it is technological, highly accurate and highly effective, and then everything will become clear, ivana ot when we talk about ukrainian capabilities to destroy enemy targets on the territory of crimea, general luzhnyi in his well-known material said that we used missile weapons for strikes on crimea in the match, including the nuclear airfield with pods. do you have an understanding of what exactly is used by the ukrainian side to carry out such strikes, and then on this question, it’s all the same, then i’ll redraw the fuel andriy ryzhenko. i think there are still two options, or let’s say, the selection is narrowed down to two options, after all, or a modified neton for strikes on ground

targets, well, or after all, during the skazhem war , in the south of the match, they managed to finish something on the topic of the peregrine operational-tactical complex, because well, after all, if we were like that, they would all appear in service, even if not in the form of visual materials, then in the form of some kind of textile hints, we would, well, from textual hints, from official messages, we understood it, because there are no hints, no photos, leave only two of these, but in the missile options, mr. andriy, do you have an understanding of why we destroy objects on the territory of crimea by my own efforts and when i looked in the eye of an explosion , there were three very, very specific explosions, i can definitely say that it was a weapon, it was one type, which i don't know, and i think that sooner or later we will be told about it frankly, i would now

speaking in the public sphere, i wouldn't stand there, well, it's positive that it exists, and it worked very positively. i think that the amount of equipment there was destroyed significantly, but by the way, it's an airport, it continues to function now, and dima, they dumped the equipment there, i know that now they continued to function, although a lot of equipment was destroyed, but in terms of weapons, well, i don’t know, well , it was modern and it was an accurate weapon, and not something, some kind of experimental samples, yes, mr. andriy, you remain such a supporter of the technological direction of development and the armed forces, and you are betting on a technological solution for solving certain military tasks. i see that for your interview, you talked about the fact that striking russian objects there in the sevastopol bay or in other bays it is possible at the expense of e-e underwater unmanned e-e systems e-e

, do such systems exist at our foreign partners, what are their features and how do they differ from missile weapons in order to quietly destroy all submarines there one or another russian bay well, really in order to ensure two main operational tasks or the northwestern part of the black sea and around the crimea - this is its control - this is the control of the sea area and sydinayev - this is to allow the enemy to the border i think that a - but which of the drones is very, very good, the best option for the navy of ukraine, well, one of the options that can be received by us very quickly, why? well, first of all, they perform all the assigned tasks within the operational zone. i want to remind you that from odesa to sevastopol is 150 nautical miles, that is

not much, and it’s just an underwater and surface drone. and what kind of drone? well, it’s flying. it can overcome this distance normally. to invest several million dollars as much as possible above water , well, this project rules there are hundreds of thousands of dollars. well , i am even cheaper than the rocket team. well , the bed rocket, you understand, well, it can be detected. and it can be detected. but , in combination, there are goals, for example, remain unsolved tasks for us, this is a hostile struggle. now, the only option is to find and destroy an enemy submarine. i see how it is, it is an underwater drone

, and because it is hundreds of times cheaper than building submarines, and here it is necessary to note that for boats you need a base, you need to train the crews much more, you need their maintenance, maintenance is also a large amount, and there are such drones, they are built in europe, they are built in asia, for example, in the same korean company there is companies in italy and romania, and the market is like this, let's say it is closed and semi-open, but i think that if necessary and access is available, the armed forces of ukraine will have access to this. and drones, again, on the surface, 40 of them are used for mine countermeasures . i think that this is real an ideal option for us, because if you combine the delta, it blows, it blows, it makes sense, the angle, it steers, then all that will be in the

north will be depths up to 50, a bit, it is such a klondike for minefields for minefields. there are a lot of mines now, and in order to their well it will be necessary to neutralize a lot of these means, and a minesweeper costs 50-100 million dollars. and drones, for example, which can do practically the same thing, but not so far, and well, it’s not necessary, they cost us, again, one to two orders of magnitude less and such systems are also on the market, that is, the main thing that is needed is the tasks that need to be performed to achieve some kind of operational effect. it is not necessary to focus on the platform, but again, to write to the resource that is available. when we do this kind of brandstorming we'll see that a drone is completely, completely, it is completely

appropriate, an appropriate option at the first sign, then when we cover the near zone, we can already talk about building up, maybe more platforms, but they cost more . you have a resource and also basing, the basing system should not be forgotten because, unfortunately, we do not have it, all the bases were in the crimea, and in 8 years we have not built anything, we started to build, but we know that they have not been built, but for those, we will say well and submarines and large ships, well, i expected it to be a pun on basing, and it will fit, we can see now, yes, that it is constantly being shelled there, we need to look for it. well, again, everything is needed, tasks and capabilities - these are the starting positions for the construction of the defense, and they must correspond

based on this, i can say that drones are a very good option for us at the current stage, and they will allow us to use them to complete those tasks , including the neutralization of enemy forces in the crimea region. ivan, you researched an interesting news that referred to the fact that the russian administration in the temporarily occupied crimea declared that the forces of the black sea fleet discovered and blew up an unknown unmanned boat that supposedly belonged to the naval forces of ukraine. the photos of this drone were publicly available. you actually wrote that this is the first time that a kamikaze boat appears in information plane but what is behind the scenes of this information or is there any understanding at all is this also the dog of the russian federation is this a sample from the ukrainian side or what is your understanding of this case what well, it really has several components in its manifestation.

in short, we have to consider three versions at once, because in addition to such confirming data in favor of one of the so far, there is no first version - it is really the most optimistic that it was our homikaze drone, similar to a python, a torpedo, or a destroyer from the time of the russian-turkish war, it looks technologically quite there, there is a nice sensor for sterly and optics, an electronic station and even contact detonators for blowing up a ship, but the first thing is not a knock, what if the allies promised to give something then it is rather for the tasks of coastal defense, not a stock friend, if it really was something different and high-tech the russians did because, as always , that is, they would drag it out and show it as a trophy, and here they hurried to detonate the device in the sea. therefore, there is a second version that can also have the right to exist that it is the russians who bought some kind of iranian-made kamikaze drone for

an attempt at sabotage on the same grain corridor, because they are unlikely to risk openly shooting at civilian ships. try to detonate something. well, according to such iranian style of provocations, they may well. just this may indicate why they rushed to detonate this device. well, on the other hand, what kind of units are in service if in iran, or in north korea? with similar technological novelties, there may be a third option, which is that the russians themselves decided to mold something similar to a high-tech weapon in order to, let's say, strengthen this mood so that crimea is a fortress that is besieged by fires. some data that your boat has moved to the mainland and part of the red guard, others are some debt services of the black sea fleet, but there may be an excuse, look, we are threatened here by an unknown weapon with unknown characteristics, our relatives are in danger, we must flee well, for now , this is how the situation looks eh mr. andriy, you are

the developer of the strategy for the development of the naval forces until 2035. this strategy provided for several components and which actually were logical, one of the components was just related rates e-e on the mosquito fleet as the most effective option in comparison with the construction of powerful corvettes of the type ada, please explain the advantages of the mosquito fleet and how we can now combine this corvette of the ada, which is being added to the hull of which is being built here in turkey with limited financial opportunities, about which you spoke in commenting on the situation regarding robotic platforms as financial constraints . until the 35th year, we divided that period into three stages because we

predicted that in the first five years we would have about 100-150 million dollars a year for the development of the navy, the next year it will be up to 400 up to 600 million per year of economic opportunities. it turned out that from the 18th to the 20th, before the start of the war, we had about 3 billion hryvnias for the development of the navy per year, and we calculated that at the first stage, it was predicted that the main task will be performed in the near sea zone, that is, it can be 40,100 nautical miles from the coast, then there is where our shipping is going, where it is critical that our ports are not packed, we did not think about the central part of the black sea, where russian submarines mainly operate, we thought about the territorial sea and so on, and in order to solve the task of controlling shipping , the security of the party er, defense against aggression, we

calculated that we need these weapons, we need rockets, torpedoes, artillery, anti-mine systems, radars , to put them on small boats, and because, well, one ton of a surface ship costs, well, actually in any country, 150,000 dollars, one ton of metal. well, it can be 3,000. yes. that is, this is the skill of a person, it increases the cost, the cost of the price, that's right, the raw materials for the technological product , and we calculated that for 5 years, we can fit into the budget is 1 billion dollars and we knocked out three types of platforms that would perform these tasks, these are missile boats, they had to be built, great britain already had a developed project there, uh, that means mom, eight missile boats, eight missiles each, 64 missiles so

what are we missing now, and the second - it had to be the american catherine the great mark vi, which would be engaged in cleaning our coast , gave the enemy a chance to land, carried out anti-mine measures, and patrol ships that would look where the enemy would see the islands and carry out measures there, also patrol a-a well, well, well again, we needed a base for all these boats, and when we brought it to our party partners, the main americans and british, they, even the americans, agreed to hand over the boats to us for free. also put weapons on them for free, and the british provided a loan for the construction of boats and were ready to build bases for us on the black sea

and on the azov sea, but you understand what concerns the corvette. i think it also needs a photo, but not because it is its own mainly in the central part of the black sea and beyond it, just like a boat, it carries eight cruise missiles, they are needed, but a corvette costs 5-6 times more than a boat, and frankly, for the cost of this corvette, i would rather build 5 or 6 boats and would have this capability in the form of no eight missiles, for example, a 48 sea, and this is important , in addition, the corvette, we understand that this will be this number one for the russians, they have this component, let’s say very charismatic or symbolic, very serious, they will immediately directly introduce thinking on well, er, for this corvette well,

it also needs a base because the base was planned for chuck, well , ochakov is not suitable for this one because it is a base. area of ​​its application and it is also dangerous there, well, there are also serious dangers there in terms of depths, that is why the ship is very good. as far as i know, there are also many questions about the weapons there, because well, how would the original ship , the weapons there are american, or approval only for the construction of the transfer of these weapons for turkey, not for ukraine. it may be a busy time, so i think this ship should be provided at the later stages of the navy’s development . a sufficient number of missiles in order to, well,

neutralize and destroy it, but it will be a serious such negative impact on us, as well as the circle of these cruisers moscow on andriy thank you for these interesting explanations and we literally have 1 minute i would like ivan you kortuv corps to say about what is most important for us to protect our economic interests in the black sea using military potential, in your opinion, you know. i think that after that i have so much experience in blocking ports when you have gained a lot of experience in our economy billions of losses in dollars alone, the agricultural sector alone is 10 billion dollars, in principle you cannot ask yourself the question that we do not have resources for the fleet and that we should save on the photo i think that we will need a system of all kinds, as if promising drones yes and actually, large surface ships or, let’s say, missile boats, of course the question is how soon we can get all those means , because it’s like that. it’s still better to bet on drones here in terms of what we can get

faster, but we shouldn’t forget about ships either because, i repeat, we can no longer afford to economize, mr. andriy, your brief summary of what we need, first of all, we need to protect the near sea area and we need the capacity of platforms, we need weapons at sea, but we need to spend resources, well, in terms of funds, we have where and just for the fleet, there are a lot of needs of the state, so i think that we should concentrate as much as possible on the ability to protect our near sea zone. thank you all for these professional comments . defenskih express and also andriy ryzhenko, expert of the center of defense strategies, ex-deputy chief of staff of the naval forces of the armed forces of ukraine, e.e., captain of the first rank in the guest reserve, asked serhiy zgurets, director of the defensis express company, stay on the

espresso channel, the liberation of the occupied territories of kharkiv oblast, in particular, the city of izyum when i learned about this news, i almost immediately remembered the yurchenko family of oleksii's father , mother maria and their two sons, a six-year-old stamp and a seventeen-year-old bread which, even at the beginning the war stuck them there in the occupation, the connection with the family was cut off almost immediately, literally on the eve of the liberation of kharkiv oblast, we contacted the hotline of the children's search service, my grandfather disappeared. he lives in sumy oblast, and imagine a man who hasn't spoken to his relatives for more than six months, he doesn't know where they are or what are they safe with them? elementary, but i believed that everything was fine with the family and i really hoped to find them. the last time i spoke with them was on march 7. they were in the raisins, they hid from the shelling in the forest, they were hiding in the basement of the neighbors and i was already

they were hiding in the basements. i really remembered this story and the man's emotions. he asked for help in finding his grandchildren, but he could not send us their photos, so in the last program i talked in detail about market gleb from the city of izyum in the hope that someone from his acquaintances would recognize them and send us photos then it would have been much easier to search for the missing children, and who would have thought that in a few days the photos for the next program would no longer be needed. called the grandfather of the disappeared with this message. at 10 o'clock, my son yushchenko balsy oleksiyovych and my grandson yushchenko hlibov oleksiyovych called me from afar and i was taking care of them, but they didn't come out via satellite phone, so i personally spoke with them
