shtonats in bucharest, the secretary general of the alliance, stoltenberg, stressed that they confirmed their readiness to help ukraine with modern weapons, ammunition and fuel, which ukraine needs for defense. financing the reconstruction of ukraine this is what we are talking about, european correspondent bohdan tsyupyn, who is joining our broadcast right now from london from dan we heard from the head of the ministry of foreign affairs, dmytro kuleba, that he received a number of new promises from the participants of the summit regarding the armament of ukraine, what do you know about this new aid and whether ukraine will receive the patriot systems , because kyiv is asking for them, well, first of all, we know that allies are partners of ukraine nato countries have declared, first of all, that they will

continue their support er, even in these difficult times, especially in this winter time, helping with the ukrainian energy system with the protection of er, ukrainian air, which specifically concerns petriv system, it is obviously about the promised system from germany. it was a proposal for poland. the poles said that they would like germany to hand it over to ukraine . foreign minister dmytro kuleba said that negotiations are still ongoing in this case, that ukraine will to convince, in particular , germany and other partners to hand over the patriot system to ukraine. ukraine has other different air defense systems, in particular the latest western ones, but if ukraine received the petria, it is the latest powerful system that would be very useful as well

the ukrainian minister reminded about the very necessary armored vehicles. now it is precisely nato-type armored vehicles, as he said, tracked, that is, battle tanks, which he said are needed primarily for fighting in the winter season, and he said that this is also an issue that must be unblocked as soon as possible. bohdan is also at the summit to be of ukraine's membership in instulzenberg stated that the most urgent task is to ensure that ukraine wins, or does this mean that the issue of ukraine's membership in the alliance remains in an uncertain perspective natalya, we are taking this issue for a while it is obvious from the time because it is very important, but at this meeting of the foreign ministers of ukraine to nato, the issue of ukraine's membership was not discussed, it was not on the agenda, in particular, it was raised by

journalists in questions, for example, to the secretary general of nato, and in response to this, i would also like to again to quote the ukrainian minister kulebu, who simply briefly said, yes, we will win, yes, we will be members of nato, it is obvious that it is about the future at the summit in bucharest, there was a lot of talk about war crimes at the same time, the president of the european commission, urson von der leyen, proposed to russia in ukraine to create a special international court to consider these crimes. it is not clear what the mechanism is and what the prospects for its creation are. the fact that the european union

supports the creation of a special international court or will it be called a tribunal or something else , this is already another matter, this is a serious step as will it continue to be a problematic issue, the easiest way would be the creation of its decision by the un security council, as was the case with the special tribunal for the former yugoslavia, but it is obvious that russia, as a member of the un security council, will oppose this in moscow. it has already been made clear that russia will not agree to so, use your legal right. therefore, an international agreement will be needed . britain where did we hear favorable voices in

support and it is obvious that it will be a broad international agreement for which it will be necessary to gather as much as possible support ukraine is estimated at 600 billion euros russia its oligarchs must compensate ukraine for damages and cover the price of reconstruction and we have ways to make the russians pay we have frozen the reserves of the russian central bank for 300 billion euros we have also frozen 19 billion euros of russian oligarchs' money in the short term we can together with partners, create a structure to manage the topic of funds, invest them and use the profits for ukraine, and when the sanctions are lifted, those funds will have to be used in such a way that russia pays full compensation for the devastation committed in ukraine. thank you, bohdan, i will remind you to contact us directly from
