signal, tell me about it, please, have a calm and good morning, already in the morning, the ukrainian language gives freedom, the occupiers tuck their tails when they hear the pro-ukrainian palyanitsy and pavlo, and we have n’t even mentioned the words of 30 letters, although we have affectionate words for everyone, we will find us, do not destroy us, protect us, the force three forms of the future tense we will go and we will go to victory in spite of everything the ukrainian language is free i last saw my native donetsk in 2012 and soon the war will take away from me the opportunity to return home for almost 9 years of a full-scale invasion training took a back

seat from the first days i started volunteering like some of my colleagues ukrainian gymnasts about three thousand athletes and coaches are currently defending the independence of our country more than 100 of them will never return home our training halls orders but we must not be silent we should not silence russia's crimes against ukraine, as russian and belarusian athletes do, their silence is support for bloody russian terror, and terrorists have no place in international sports i call on all citizens of the civilized world to support ukraine on the sports front, share your posts with the company's hashtags and call for a boycott of russian and belarusian athletes , with the support of the ministry of youth and sports of ukraine, kills thirst shul rules of two sockets, turned on a powerful electrical appliance, turned off the equivalent

military bonds work both for you and for victory good night, a joint information marathon continues, the only news, then yuliya glushka works for you maksym sikora good night, catastrophic consequences await russia if it dares to use nuclear weapons against ukraine, because in such a case, the united states will intervene in such the former commander of the forces of the united states of america in europe said to the retired general benhozhi , he emphasized that the use of nuclear weapons will not have positive consequences for russia, there will be zero if the russians decide to use nuclear weapons on the battlefield, it will not bring them profit, but only trouble, because then a collective action led by the united states must react, that is, russia has no

friends in this matter, the only one can be north korea, but allies who approved the use of nuclear weapons in ukraine in they don't exist benhodges - former commander of the us forces in europe well, let's add volodymyr dubovyk to our conversation - he is the director of the center for international studies, associate professor of the department of international relations of odessa national university name of mechnikov good night mr. volodymyr good evening greetings well, this is the topic that has been declared. it is of course very interesting about their reaction among the united states to the possible catastrophic consequences in the event of the use of nuclear weapons by russia. to play these games, well, so far, well, first of all, i think that lately we have seen this a little bit, they do not

return to this topic so often, and secondly, there is simply nothing left in them, what else can be done criticize and what other arguments or levers of influence are there on ukraine? because ukraine continues to advance, our armed forces are released in ukrainian territory because of this, russia cannot stop this offensive of ours and therefore threatens all the time with nuclear weapons. moreover , if the west adds more weapons to us then it will be even better for us to advance and they in russia understand this and they are sending such a signal not so much even for ukraine as for the west, but the west is already saying the last thing, i only want but others that it is true if russia uses weapons there will be a mass impression or not biological, bacteriological, chemical or nuclear weapons against ukraine, this will definitely cause such a normal non-nuclear strike from ukraine, nato will hang on to the combined type and other countries in the region on russian troops in ukraine. of course, this is an unacceptable situation for

the russians. its troops here in ukraine and i think that i hope that at least the russian military at least understands that this is serious, this is a lie, is nato ready to do this, do you think that in the event that a nuclear strike command is given it may not be implemented because of the military, which i am the mediator of. i believe that the russian military understands that if there is a command to use nuclear weapons against ukraine, it will lead to the fact that it will also be implemented, that there will be a military strike by nato countries against russian troops in ukraine and they don’t want it, because it will be very big crazy people, why is it that the international community is talking about the response of conventional weapons, why can’t there also be a tactical nuclear attack on places of concentration of russian

troops, if there is such a response from one side, then it is still very likely that there will be an even higher level of response from russia, in particular, strategic nuclear weapons. and this is indeed the third world war and a global nuclear armageddon that will put a cross on our entire planet and on russia in ukraine on america, that’s why they don’t want this, i think escalation on their part, the main ones have enough leverage in the technical technological military in order to deal a devastating blow to russia without the use of nuclear weapons, well, in principle, it consists the impression is that this is really just a word game that takes place with one single goal, first of all it is blackmail, and secondly, it is blackmail with the aim of bringing ukraine to the negotiating table. i think that russia is being used for this, or the west understands

that, well, it is possible ukraine will not be able to free all its lands, or there was an escalation on the part of russia, and therefore there is no need to push for that scenario and we will stop a little earlier, you will not win this war against russia cleanly, and therefore there will probably be more voices in the west who will call for what is necessary already it is possible to end this war at the price of certain concessions, concessions to ukraine well, but look, russia wants victory on the international community, but at the same time it pulled out the forbidden card from nuclear weapons, the use of which can set a precedent, and if the same united states responds with conventional methods, will this stop the nuclear escalation around the world something that has been feared since the days of the cold war, and in principle it was possible to contain it, but now russia has started playing with prohibited methods. well, it may not stop here, it is very difficult to predict everything exactly this is the kind of territory in which melnikov has not yet been

in the world in the history of international relations or the use of weapons, and that is why it is difficult to predict everything in advance, and that is why in the west , such approaches are used with respect that you do not even need to look for it. you do not even need to try to find out about what will happen next, because this is true if there is a really serious risk of escalation, so it is better not to bring it up, but so that we do not know for sure what will be here, as they say, the steps from commercial, how will they take place, one step, then another, and what is there we just don't know for sure, returning to the topic of the talks, you know that the mid -term elections to the united states congress have ended. the president of the united states, joe biden, spoke at the corresponding briefing . of course, the questions were not only about the elections, but also concerned ukraine for one thing. of these, which concerned precisely the readiness of ukraine and russia for possible negotiations , biden did not answer, it remains to be found out now, he

quotes whether ukraine is ready to make compromises with russia, what can this phrase mean. what do you think? well may mean that america is interested in under what conditions and at what stage the ukrainian leadership will be ready for negotiations with russia. and will our president really insist 100% in principle on the liberation of all ukrainian lands and the return to the borders by 2014, after all, he is ready under certain circumstances to make some compromises, i think that the americans are trying to find out for themselves, this does not mean that they decide and prescribe these priorities for us, but they would like to know more about the proposals of ukraine. i think what is connected with this, a recent visit of an assistant regarding the exact moment that could be, mr. volodymyr, do you hear what you hear, yes, the moment is not quite convenient. the fact is that you know that

certain things are happening in the kherson region right now, very ostentatious there was such an information, such an information was made about the fact that it seems that the armed forces of the russian federation are going to leave this city, although, of course, this is not confirmed in the office of the president in the general staff, that is, he is right, but you say escalation, probably escalation just has a chance take place in the southern direction and when the armies are fighting and even more so when the ukrainian army has a certain advantage. this is not exactly the moment when someone needs negotiations, well, negotiations can be needed by anyone. well, i think that if we believe that we still have the initiative on our side strategic on the battlefield, then we must not stop and of course it will not be in our interests to stop now to go to negotiations but if we

will surely find out at my stage and see that we can no longer advance and liberate our land and such a war will last for how many years 2 3 and 5 and therefore we do not know then it is possible and we will have to look for some compromise options therefore we proceed from the fact that our position is common in this society of the people and our political leadership that we want and desire and are heading for liberation of all ukrainian lands, but this goal is such a priority and to which we are heading, whether we will be able to get to and solve this task, only time will tell volodymyr, here at biden's press conference following the results of these midterm elections to the congress, he was interested i will quote the statement with your permission, the direct speech of biden, first of all, i find it interesting that they waited with this decision, they mean, well, supposedly leaving kherson. that they have

big problems in the russian army, or is it really this, well, the alleged withdrawal of the russian army from kherson, we will assume now that they are really leaving, we will talk about it separately, that he was tied, this iron of goodwill is tied precisely before the american elections, i probably do n't know everything, how biden's bank is managed, when he talks about it , does he have any information or is he ready to share this information with the ukrainian leadership, biden has such a trait, sometimes something like a voice to say that maybe you should not say it b well, it is possible that this is exactly the case eh we just know of course that kherson can be liberated at any moment and in principle this offensive operation was developed in parallel in the kharkiv direction and the kherson direction by our military variants the participation of the american and british military, yes , too, but that's why they are also aware, they developed this operation together, we already know about it, but

i don't think it is really tied to any election here in the usa, because in principle, these elections in america are not greatly changed america and foreign policy, the foreign policies developed remain in the hands of the white house of the biden administration, so we can’t call it a voluntary gesture either. laughed at them, and that is why we have all learned to distinguish when they are retreating because they can no longer hold the territory and then they say that they did it out of good will, and the snake was still leaving chernihiv oblast, kyiv oblast, so we understand that we are forcing them to retreat, that they are not can advance more and get certain specific regions or lands, i think that if kherson is liberated, it will be a push in a very good direction in all senses, in particular, in that it mobilizes more and activates support for ukraine, as if after kharkiv direction when our western allies were very impressed and said well, let's give even more

weapons to ukraine, let's give them because they are capable of liberating their land with these weapons. of course, like the entire ministry of defense of great britain, does not believe that the russian army is leaving the ukrainian zone and made a statement in such a way that very important events will take place in the next few weeks, the battle for kherson therefore, it is necessary to significantly increase military aid for ukraine, and you know that today i already received reports of a thousand anti-aircraft missiles already moving in the direction of ukraine, a great signal, of course, but as we know, the west is to a certain extent consolidated, united around in these positions to help ukraine and punish of russia for aggression, but at the same time there are different points of view in the grouping, there are such as benuvala, there are such as uh, more hawkish voices of our support, which we see there in

various countries of europe and across the ocean, but from the other side on the other side, there are politicians who from time to time return to the topic, if you don't need to humiliate russia, you should give them the opportunity to save face, retreat with dignity so that it doesn't look like they really got a total defeat, and that's why it's important here to see what the balance will be here, because on it is difficult to imagine that the west is ready to really support ukraine at the level it was in the last 8 months. in the next few years, it is simply from the point of view of both financial and political responsibility and mood public i think it will be difficult to do so now all the questions about under what conditions maybe after all, well, in kyiv i am ready to sit down for all the negotiations with moscow, that is why they are between ukraine and russia, this is what it is possible that ukraine is even being pushed to, but i will return to biden after all, in your opinion,

could a successful counteroffensive in kherson oblast affect biden's election results ? well, let's say that ukraine advances , reclaims territory, and supports biden, because it is alleged that his policy gives results or not, or is it for the election ? no bulls in america had any effect. no, it will not affect the elections. moreover, these are local elections. and we are already exaggerating the significance of the events in ukraine for the whole world, but this is understandable . us at the press conference well, he also talks about kherson somewhere in the states and where is kherson well, why not if asked, if journalists ask, then he will talk about anything, even about australia and antarctica, that's why there are such things well i i think that he still understands that this is a proof of the success of his policy if ukraine continues to liberate its land occupied by russia, it will prove that the americans are doing everything right from the point of view of weapons from the point of view of

weapons from the point of view supply of financial aid and this is how it strengthens his position in the world, american leadership and so on, but this is an adversary, he is somewhere pushing some average american voter through the operating station to vote for president biden our the party of democrats, where are the governors in which state, and only because the ukrainians are there today, tomorrow, the kherson collection does not work. yes, but uh. that is, you think that this is a coincidence of the announcement of the withdrawal from kherson exactly the day after the end of the voting in the by-elections to the congress, yes, i am personally in touch, well, interestingly, another topic that we wanted to discuss with you is what is happening in principle in the russian kremlin establishment, you know that the so-called cook of putin is gaining weight very much, this is the person who leads the private army of wagner and from

in recent days, he allows himself to make very sharp statements, the last of which referred to the so-called oligarchic elite of the russian federation. he said that if the oligarchs are very worried about their future and do not support military actions in ukraine, then stalinist repressions should be applied to them as best you can . comment well, it is possible and in principle, internal russian politics does not belong to the sphere of my research interests, therefore i cannot comment on it professionally here, rather as a citizen of ukraine i i think that now there is serious enmity and a little panic and such disputes inside russia, and now everyone is trying to improve their chances and prepare some positions, perhaps in order to claim power later, from whom you will still have a putin-style period in this context, it is probably rather necessary to look at this statement consonants and well, then another such er prigozhin

statement about the fact that we just talked about these elections about the fact that russia er participated in interfered will intervene and will interfere in the elections and not only of the united states of america, that is, a person allows the whole world to speak absolutely openly about the fact that they do not understand what democracy, independence and national interests of other countries are, well, this is just such an aggressive game on the western audience on the russian audience and raising your chances and rating, which i just said, and he is trying to show that he is so determined, consistent, and also his position, what does it mean, and someone should listen to it, then this is all mostly within the framework contention i think this struggle for the influence of a-a on the kremlin on putin now and from the point of view of putin's russia mainly and you, that russia tried to influence america in particular, that is without doubt, but lately they are a little busy with

ukraine, so they do not have enough already resources and people and time to deal with such an active america but by inertia and of course their presence in america is a certain propagandistic one and it is and it divides americans and it works for trump and his krylov republican party all this is happening but a bit like this, rather by inertia, unlike in the 16th year, let's say companies, when russia very actively played on america in the information field and was treated, in particular, with his er with his companies trolls these bots he played a very active role in discussing er this is iran in recent days we talk about them a lot, a rapprochement game, the secretary of national security and defense of the russian federation, mykola petrovych, visited iran. it was reported that there are also snakes there, attention, without confirmation from the russian side, patorsha met with secretary of the supreme national security council of iran, ali shamkhanni, according to analysts of the institute

for the study of war, such one-sided statements indicate that tehran is demonstrating deepening cooperation with moscow. according to iranian journalists, the topic of the meeting was the sale of iranian ballistic missiles, which russia wants to buy to continue the war in ukraine. the situation in the very early days is now unstable and, according to washington analysts, the country is looking for russia's help in suppressing the protests, in your opinion, what does this indicate the regime that russia no longer has other partners, how do you have to go and look for help from uranium, you see, you have already answered this question. i think that there are not so many friends and allies left in russia now due to the fact that such leading countries as china and india are very careful now behave a little, distance themselves from moscow, even from time to time criticize this war a little and do not want to violate sanctions in favor of russia in order not to

fall under western sanctions, and then you have to look for someone, whether it is north korea, which was already mentioned today, or the iranian islamic the republic of iran, well, it’s really early. the situation is really juicy. i really think that they have enough internal resources and security services to watch these protests, the movement as it was before, and although russian practice. i think russian experience here and there won’t hurt either. it's a pity, of course, that i took such a position early, and they still gave us a green light for that plane of our international airlines of ukraine that they shot down, and they never paid any compensation, they didn't even agree , but from that they already switched to direct support and at the same time, they are lying, as we can see, because we say that there are iranian drones, they say no, these are not our drones, or did we deliver them there before the start of a large-scale war, etc. and if there are still ballistic missiles, then of course it will be a problem for us or some additional burden on our military e from some directions due to political missiles for and against which we do not have normal means of protection

e.e. unlike other than cruise missiles, this will be a problem, so let's still hope that this will not happen and that some pressure is now being exerted on iran must have results because the americans are looking for new sanctions. we hope that the europeans will immediately understand that you cannot negotiate all morning and you can only play with him in order to weaken him and it is possible to remove him for sure . but why are these meetings one-sided? the visit is reported only by the iranian media and the russian media are silent, which is a shame. well, i don’t know, maybe it’s true because you have a second army there in the world, and another, if only now, and north korea’s. we can’t drag out the situation, this is the first moment and the second moment, well, my night, i could only have my thoughts. well, let's say that the west criticizes iran , russia does not want to support, probably, well, doc- proof , evidence that they really communicate at random, although the iranians themselves, as you can see, talk about these meetings, it's hard to say, maybe a little later there will be

some information from the russian words of mr. volodymyr thank you for taking the time to chat with us as part of a joint marathon single news volodymyr dubovyk director of the center for international studies and associate professor of the department of international relations of odesa national university mechnikov university was in direct contact with us. well, the topic of iran and the iranian- iranian negotiations, moscow-tehran negotiations, the intelligence and our partners have been informed for a long time, and just a few days ago, the general staff confirmed this information, ballistic missiles are going to russia, the regime are they dangerous and will our anti- missile defense system survive? artem zhipko will tell you all about it. kyiv almost a month ago, the iranian strike was not a drone, mine 136 hit a house, five people did not survive this attack, everyone will receive the so-called mopeds in ukraine are already getting used to them, they have been actively

using them for two months now, iranian weapons are two shock uavs shahed 136 and shahed 131 , a makhajer 6 strike and reconnaissance uav and an abi bel-2 reconnaissance uav, our air defense system copes perfectly with everything, our and american intelligence in one a voice says that soon the russian occupiers will have another weapon , the fatek 110 and zdufikat missiles, with a range of 300 and 700 km, respectively . this is a ballistic missile, it has a negative warhead , that is, in the air, the warhead is separated from the main one. and the race is much harder to shoot down, besides, the weight of the warhead is 500-600 km, and that is a lot of explosive power from such a warhead, well , in fact, it is the same skender as well capacity and therefore danger, because if they are used

on civilian objects, this is again a big risk of a large number of casualties among civilians , and we understand that they will first of all be used as elements of the ror for sure it is not known whether russia has already received these missiles. but last week, our intelligence reported that the russians are using the kursk nuclear power plant as a kind of hub where they store and modernize shahed 136 kamikaze drones. it is also not excluded that iranian missiles may be stored there. most likely, putin will give the order to strike the critical infrastructure of ukraine. he is trying to beat below the belt with this technique, yes, in order to win the war, they, and what have they now fallen into? yes, in some chp or substation, ours are now trying, like the mario brothers, to restore it yes, there recovered, for example, by 60%. and here it is arriving again, yes , they destroyed ours wholesale, and ours are being restored again, and the russians

will aim to bring specific objects there to the zero level as much as possible, to zero, to count on thousands of fatekhs and zulfikats, the russians do not need the boyar missile defense system, which is much weaker than the russian one. moreover, iran has been under sanctions, and therefore there is not enough access to modern technologies, and since, of course, it has a much smaller number than today, it has its own ballistic missiles, so we can talk about the supply of missiles to russia in the amount of somewhere up to 100 units, perhaps a little more than 100 units, no more than two hundred, but it is also quite powerful, nevertheless, an element of influence - this is a rather serious threat to which we must respond, these missiles are a challenge for our air and missile defense, because it is very difficult for anyone to shoot down ballistic missiles in order to effectively work on iranian missiles , we really need to close the sky and the help of western partners is now extremely important , anti-missile complexes, classes on sam or iriste e-e,

now is the time for us, and although we already have armed the ukrainian army is such an advantage, but there are not enough of them to completely close the territory of our country. when exactly they will start hitting ukraine with iranian missiles is unknown, but all experts are convinced that this month can be very difficult for us. the night is now a short pause and we will return from the cossack times under the cossack christ we defend our native land we drink for truth and water we believe in our victory glory to the defenders of ukraine i defend ukraine

my blue sky, morning silence, forest, fields, i protect culture, tradition, cossack land, i protect the borders of my country, i protect what is important, life, family , mother, father, brothers, wife, i protect my ukraine, will, freedom, love, we are the ones who are building a new, strong, free and independent ukraine, i protect i protect, i protect, i protect the border of freedom, the border of dignity, the border of humanity, the border of indomitability
