launch of ballistic missiles and we strongly condemn it, this is a serious escalation of military actions, in addition to its missiles, north korea is also testing the patience of its neighbors, there are three things that can be done, the first is diplomatic statements that we hear , condemnation of actions, another resolution in the un security council is possible, which north korea has heard before and which will not have a great effect, the friend is sanctions, but north korea is already one of those countries against which the largest number of sanctions in the world have been introduced, so new sanctions are unlikely. well, the third the thing is negotiations, but there are no signs of negotiations in the region, south korea is already preparing its fighter jets , there is an opinion that with this launch, north korea is preparing the ground for nuclear weapons tests, that's it for today take care mykola veresen vitaly

we will talk about this later in the next hour, ihor romanenko , retired lieutenant general, deputy chief of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine, mr. generals, good health and thank you for joining our program. good day to you in ukraine. glory to the heroes, mr. igor, let's start our a conversation with the top topics that are being discussed today in ukraine and outside of ukraine, this is the statement of ilona, ​​the mask of a multi-billionaire, a person who influences the world and whose opinion is always perceived on the planet with special attention and taking into account his influence and the development of science and technology in general in the world so what he wrote on his twitter page, he conducted a survey and asked questions about how to resolve

the issue of belonging to the crimea annexed by russia so he offered options peace between ukraine and ukraine the first re-election in the annexed regions under the supervision of the un russia and where if on that will be the will of the people of crimea, the second is formally part of and as it was from 1783 until the error of khrushchev iii, water supply of crimea was provided of course the position of the mask immediately caused sharp criticism both in ukraine and in the world. how do you feel about the so-called peacekeeping and non-peace initiatives of ilon the mask and how can they be explained at all, well, considering the figure of a man who is now literally changing the world of science and technology before our eyes hmm, this is very important, of course, but i want to say that this is not the first such

story with him, and the doctors say that it is quite serious in relation to the fact that he has a disease that determines that he can be in some directions, of which the most two means a lot effective if even it is brilliant that we see in terms of rockets, for example, the direction of his activity and so on eh and in other his perception is without emotional without any empathy and that is, his analysis boils down to the fact that eh there is a war people are dying the situation is escalating to eh the use of nuclear weapons. therefore, it is necessary to calculate some kind

of slightly lazy technical scheme according to which the risks are reduced to a minimum. for this, it is proposed to do what you listed. well, it is possible and there are reasons for this . uh, experts say that he is thinking about political activity and, in this regard, is looking for supporters in the upcoming elections in america will he be there for the 24th year of the presidency, so it is possible to analyze some more possible options but i think that you are important enough for us that someone somewhere is not and his whole opinion is definitely weighty in the world in the information technology well, in the human world in general

eh means eh, there are facts from our side, an estimate of what it is this is a serious mistake, which must be resisted because for us this war is a war for the national, it is a national, guiding liberation, and there can be no compromises in connection with the fact that before the beginning of this war, then the day of the cities of the countries was formed - these borders should be ukraine's place. in general, he did not see how the state was, and he also did not see the destruction of our nation , so the assessment of anyone, including ilona maska, should be fundamental in this connection

many of our citizens and not only are the seven presidents have a separate policy for the whole matter , and this evaluation must be implemented in the information sphere, in the diplomatic sphere, and we are grateful to him . important for some were separated from their families from the free part of ukraine, all this is understandable, that is, for what a person does positively. we thank him for what is fundamentally unacceptable in relation to our state where our people, he should receive an objective assessment and you will be you are appropriate for the actions of the algorithm of actions in relation to

such a person, which is happening now general against the background of what musk said and is saying, because this discussion is going on literally right now, not on twitter, on twitter accounts are in ilona's twitter account, the mask is not zelensky legalized the refusal of negotiations with russia today he signed a decree and put into effect the decision of the security council of ukraine on the impossibility of negotiations with president vladimir putin, this decision was adopted 30 september, after putin announced the so-called annexation of the occupied regions of ukraine. does this mean that the outcome of the current war will now be decided exclusively on the battlefield, well, they are possible. certainly, first of all, on the battlefield. i say this as a military man , but there may be, as they say, options related with

the fact that it is under the influence of the victories which lately we have been carrying out the code of offensive activity offensive activity eh you have shown your program now you briefly walked through 7 achievements this is very important this is not strategic yet level, but at the operational level, we also have success in the kharkiv direction and beyond liman lysychansk and in the kherson direction, e-e, it means that the number of influences on the enemy grouping on the right bank has turned into qualitative changes, that is, after we took the first line of defense on the 29th it was very saturated with their defensive capabilities, we reduced the potential of this group, but it is suitable

for the defense of shparinovyh, and we continue offensive actions in separate directions, this is very important, therefore , under the pressure of all these circumstances, it can be so it will happen that the tower will be changed and the kremlin is fighting there, there are different positions on the strategic approach, i see development in two directions . to remain within the framework of the russian federation, although in essence there is no federation there yet, so if it is a democratic leader and they can build new ones well, if it is unrealistic, a federation, although a confederation within the limits of what is now, if not

it will also happen under the actions of the victories of our more significant actions such a cascade of destruction can take place not only on the a front and in this state, the aggressor who can also bring the aggressor to the split of this state into some pieces, let 's say, who will try national e introduce independent state activity e-e well, these are the options, such approaches a-a the most influential by far this is the state a-a of our victories in this war, which we all see more and more at the front against the background of our victories in the east and the south, the press secretary

putin, dmytro piskov, says that the negotiations that he was asked about from the ukrainian side are possible only if the position of the ukrainian authorities changes or in the event of the appearance of another president in ukraine, we will hear piskov to conduct negotiations, two sides are needed, not you know that the russian side began with the military the radio station was still a supporter of the fact that the services of the russian country would achieve the conditions agreed upon by the russian side . сейчас что можно казать well, we will now wait for either changes in the police of the current president, or we will wait for the future president of ukraine, who will change your position in the interests of the ukrainian people, what is interesting, generals, this is exactly the position of zelenskyi. he said that we will hold negotiations, and already but already with another president of the

russian federation, right now the most critical moment in these discussions and negotiations or talks about negotiations is the situation on the eastern and southern fronts and as experts note of the american institute for the study of war, ukrainians are pushing back the best russian units in the east and the south, and the ukrainian army is expanding its control zone in the northeast in the directions to kremennaya and svatov and as you have already said in the kherson region , can general mobilization change the situation on the front line, or do they call it partial mobilization general mobilization in the russian federation, this critical mass, a large mass of people who can pass from that side of the front well, first of all, i would like to say that the position of our president is different, that is, if earlier, putin did not call our president by his

last name. well, he has such a manner, uh, he said in ukraine and only this kind of rhetoric, in uzbekistan it has already been two months with a request to stop hostilities and move to negotiations, but they understood that they want on their own conditions, he called the president by his last name zelensky for the first time and also talked about the actions in ukraine we will teach them a lot about this russian president and what the next ones who may come after this is one position but the position of our president was also stated to be fundamental political regarding the fact that if such referendums are held with the following ones, there can be no mock talks on negotiations, and it means that on the 30th, with the signing of the document, the right to accelerate entry, and

then he declared that uh, yes, if it is not in the language, he is incomprehensible hmm putin was brought up there, the st. petersburg gateway, the boy said, the boy did it, and that’s why we passed this decree now, and i think that ukraine will observe such events. and in putin’s case, ask him to beg to look for his supporters or followers there to try to influence instead because he is not capable of making other decisions, well, on the other hand, what kind of decision will it be similar to his political death, perhaps not only political ? partly mobilization, everything they were afraid of was done in a formal purge, but we

understand that they will recruit as many as there is a need, then all referendums will be held in order to advance outside the legal field of the aggressor state and they do not recognize the international which enables the continuation of the war enables their president with territories in this already russian to use weapons of mass effect for nuclear, that is, he now already has such rights if he legitimized such approaches er expanded in this way although he expanded in this way and then you already listed these settlements which are successfully leaving only now from the russian federation . i think this process will continue because a lot of what is done in them is artificial, more propagandistic than substantive, and this has its consequences definitely at the front, which we see, so it is important

that we increase our offensive capabilities, for this we need modern, effective weapons , massed and fast, and we hope that after toreasinka, the last leadership time will be with our allies, first of all the united states states, we receive it, and which can be faster in order to have the appropriate consequences on the front, it is emphasized once again that i , the generals, returned to the question and what will this large mass of people, whom they are now taking to the front and who are not prepared, decide? well, we see what it is it ends, we see that the first ones who entered the luhansk region for a few days already mobilized were broken thanks to them by our scouts and artillery echelons of the wall by people,

but on the one hand, and we see that with such an approach it is hopeless digital only the deaths of people that he talked about and the president who addresses all the people and us is the chief commander, general zaluzhnik, but all the same, the process continues and, as before, they used the principle in bulk for the majority of russians, er, all wars, they will try to carry it out here, that is, for the first time, these military personnel, as it were, already a hundred thousand have been mobilized, they will, for the time being, establish those who have appeared in their defense, that is, to increase efforts where they are trying to advance, this is a low-operational zone, or to stop our offensive on in the east and in the south, and well, if in this form the

military and whole units of them are taken, then their results are objectively understandable, but this does not mean that we need to engage in slander , we need to objectively evaluate and save ourselves. what does our military and political leadership we we are working from this to this direction, taking into account these circumstances, objectivity with the leadership of our allies regarding the fact that we need to strike such a force, such a number, we need weapons of military personnel, we will train them and they are motivated, and thanks to this, we see what an effective result is happening at the front at the same time, mr. general, president zelenskyi said that he does not understand why such mass mobilization is needed in russia. he is talking about

why these new recruits are risking their lives and no one explained, let's hear zelensky with his life , we can already see it among the dead occupiers and those who were taken just a week or two ago, people were not fed before hostilities, they have no experience to fight in such a war, but the russian command just needs some people and any which to put them in the place of the dead, and when these new ones die, they will send more people, this is how russia fights. this is how she will lose. some pseudo-referendums, some announcements about annexations , some conversations about the borders invented by them will not help her. drawn, it is not clear where there is a clear one, mr. general

, if you had the opportunity to address the mobilized russians to tell them now, well, i follow the approach of ours, as well as the supreme commander-in-chief, and it played on the commander-in-chief. mobilized by the candidate at the beginning, that is, to avoid the fact that he was served with a summons, first of all, secondly, so that this does not happen, it is necessary to run away from the districts where this can happen anywhere, so that it does not happen, if, after all, they become mobilized and got to the front, then they are looking for opportunities to hand it over to the servicemen of the armed forces of ukraine, who will be given the status of prisoners of war, i am afraid , the main commander of our armed forces

, general zaluzhny, emphasized that there are important legal approaches, that is, in one's own homeland, if it will still remain in this form at the end of the war in there should be no legal claim against them, and these 10-15 years have been there for 10-15 years, are we the ones who promise behind bars to those who will conduct themselves in this way thank you, mr. generals, and thank you for participating in the program i wish you good health i will remind our viewers, was it ihor romanenko , retired lieutenant general, deputy chief of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine in 2006-2010, friends, we work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our social platforms in social networks on youtube and facebook. if you you are watching us now on youtube and facebook, like this video so that it can be promoted in the youtube trends. and please do not forget about sponsoring, we

glory to ukraine today, october 4, 2022, david 's ford, freed from the orcs, sits the fifth separate marine infantry brigade in ukraine, a marine infantry battalion solemnly hangs the yellow-blue flag over the david family glory to ukraine so we see that the armed forces of ukraine are liberating kherson oblast, kharkiv oblast, donetsk oblast, in your opinion, how will putin's attempts to the annexation of certain regions of ukraine, which he declared to be russian, well, this is a gesture on putin's part because he will lose the war, eh, everyone sees it,

everyone understands it, and he understands his surroundings, his army understands, the whole world understands that he will lose the war and this is such a historical attempt now to bring these completely fake manipulations with the so-called accession. this is an actual attempt to do at least something in a situation that is absolutely for him already a losing way out of which, in principle, he already has no way out, you know, it seems to me that he is a tyrant then actually collapses, then its end actually begins. when everyone becomes indifferent to what he does, what he says, what he declares, what he signs, but today there is an absolute sense of indifference, that is, everything he does is said or signed by putin . affects

, that is, nothing changes for us, the ukrainian army will liberate the ukrainian army, it does it, it will continue to do it for the world community, for the sake of international law, nothing changes, that is, this is actually the moment when in general it becomes indifferent because everyone understands that his threats are his, all these mandras, they are nothing behind them, as a matter of fact, he has no real power, he can not stop the offensive of the ukrainian army, and if there is, remember putin there in the 14th year. so when well, he started a war there back in the 14th year and, well , many people at that time. this was caused by some ostras, so there was fear. there was a sense of continuity, a feeling that now he can do something there even before february 24th, too, what a world. i was holding my breath and so on until today it's uh, well, nothing

changes that is, it's just shaking the air, it's an effort, well, it's a hysterical effort of a player who lost everything possible a-a well, in such a historical tone a-a, well, somehow i don't even know the situation, it's difficult to even call it a joke , that's why i think it's in fact, this is already the beginning of the end, yes. this does not mean that putin will not be there tomorrow, or that in a week we will liberate all the territories, eh, it is obvious that there are still many battles ahead, many eh, well, such difficult days, difficult weeks, maybe months, but today i would did not become at all pay special attention to putin's hysteria. that's exactly what i would call it. it's hysteria in the form of a master, and it simply shows that we're doing everything right and we just need to continue this pressure that we're doing now, don't stop this pressure

, intensify this pressure and go for victory. all our way is simple and clear, and everything is clear to us. and regarding these putin trips, well, i think that everything is less and less. in general, you should pay attention. matvienko, with theatrical joy , announced that the federation council supported the adoption of four new regions into russia, as they believe, and says that new senators are waiting for putin's signature, let's see . and all of us
