other conditions. that is, it is not only the weather, that there should already be solid roads for the movement of heavy equipment, and there should also be weapons of an offensive nature, which include armored combat vehicles on land - these are tanks in the air, these are airplanes. that is, this is precisely the equipment that unfortunately 35 decisions regarding supplies from our allies are not yet made. well, first of all, this is the military-political leadership of the united states of america. the head of the russian foreign ministry, sergey lavrov , spoke again about nuclear war, saying that nuclear states should not wage a war at all, because it can turn into a nuclear war, and of course the west is to blame for everything, it is the western states that accuse the russian federation of preparing provocations, while they themselves are already waging war against russia with the hands of

ukrainians, we will hear lavrov, and any war between nuclear states is unacceptable if someone plans to start it by conventional means, the growth of the nuclear outgrowth will be huge, including that is why we are so alarmed at the rhetoric that the west spews and molts us in allegedly preparing some kind of provocations using weapons of mass destruction. to the harsh warnings

from the united states of america to the leadership of russia, including during the meeting in ankara between the director of the cia and the head of the foreign service intelligence, the russian leadership, including the deputy head of the security council of the russian federation, dmitry medvedev, quite often repeated the thesis that we can use nuclear weapons there, that we will defend there because this is provided for in our security concept, they say everything that concerns the russian federation and some of the regions that they they squeezed it from us and took it away, they consider it theirs and now lavrov says that in fact it is the west and european countries, on the contrary, are pumping out information about a nuclear war that we are useless here or is it possible i can say with confidence that the russians have already definitively abandoned the use of nuclear

weapons, including tactical ones. generals, we have some problems with communication with general igor romanenko. therefore, now we will try to include him on the air again. well, lavrov spoke a lot today about nuclear weapons. weapons and european diplomacy, according to sergey lavrov, russia is not included in the european political community. lavrov was indignant that european security should not be built together with russia, but against russia. this synchronicity of sergey lavrov and when macron announced a meeting within the framework of the european political community proposed by him, the fact that

we will not be invited to russia, like belarus, and then borel, and after him the berkut espozhiv, declared that eh, one more new new task is to build european security, not with russia against russia, if this is understood as european diplomacy, i don’t think that we need to go there , we need to understand when, uh, european diplomacy will appear. russia always has something in the way. well, almost like a dancer, we have ihor romanenko, retired lieutenant general, deputy chief of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine in 2006-2010 years. i apologize to the audience and mr. ihor, unfortunately, the connection is so unstable, we constantly this connection is falling.

we are trying to raise it. so, mr. general, please tell me whether words are enough for a certain lavrov about the fact that the russian leadership is not thinking about nuclear weapons at all, given all the warnings that russia is a cream in particular, we have received over the past few months from representatives of the united states of america. well, i mean both through the line of the state secretary and through the line of the ministry of foreign affairs of the russian federation. well, we also know that the director of the cia and the head of the foreign intelligence service of the russian federation met in ankara. do you think that russia finally gave up the use of tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of ukraine under this leadership? this can happen because it is clear that putin has no more means, we see how hard

his troops are trying to fulfill there, which at that time on the territory of ukraine are political tasks that are set, that is, the capture of the luhansk and donetsk regions within the administrative boundaries, and this is a formal task because his subordinates have specified and expanded it, and in fact he has not yet given up from his previous plans for this so-called special operation, but the forces and means for this are no longer there, and therefore now the task is to legitimize the captured territories during large-scale actions, which ukraine will certainly not agree to and the corresponding one acts with defense forces, well, relative to lavrov, everything he says is here. i generally

think that a mirror should be placed in front of him. let him look there and all this will be reflected. first of all, it concerns russia, and then it is with him, dear discussion with him, with putin, anyone, the military and political leadership of the russians must be leveled from the fact that the play on words, where did it all begin, began with these letters of aggression, the four of a large-scale war. and now they are looking for a source somewhere regarding who is to blame and it is necessary to quickly move on to the negotiations, which firstly conveyed their point of view to a pause for regrouping and preparation for a new aggression, and secondly, they legitimized the atrocities that took place during this war. therefore, this the standard-bearer trick does not work not only in ukraine, which is clear, but also in the

western countries, the leadership of which has made quite a serious step towards the transformation according to the assessment of this war at the beginning of the war and nine months later and they are more determined to support us in this struggle , but i would like it to be transformed, including the massive and rapid delivery of effective modern weapons to our defense forces, in order for us to fulfill the joint task worked out in ramsheim. etc. er time studio we are listening to you mr. igor we hear you we again have some problem with communication sorry please dear tv viewers er obviously obviously we will already move on to

as the second guest, i want to thank ihor romanenko for joining the studio, he is a retired lieutenant general, he was the deputy chief of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine in 2006-2010, friends, we work live on the espresso tv channel and on our social networks on youtube and facebook for those who are watching us live now, please like this video so that this video is seen by as many ukrainians as possible both in ukraine and outside the ukrainian state well, those who are currently watching us on youtube can join our sponsorship because under this video there is a sponsor button, you can go to this link by clicking on this button and choosing

a sponsorship package for yourself , we need your help, we are developing our youtube channel is quite dynamic, so any of your not hryvnias will help us develop our project. well, of course, i also want to say that today the council asked to recognize russia as a state sponsor of terrorism, to call for its expulsion from the un and to reform the organization today the parliament of ukraine adopted an appeal to the parliaments and governments of foreign countries with a call to remove russia from the zones to support the fundamental reform of the un and in particular its security council to recognize russia as a state and sponsor of terrorism and a state that uses the means of terrorism to recognize the political regime of the russian federation as a terrorist organization and to impose restrictive measures against members of all russian political parties responsible for the aggression against ukraine and intensify and specify

efforts to bring them to justice guilty of international crimes, a special tribunal was created to bring high-ranking officials in russia to account for crimes of aggression against ukraine well, this is the kind of information we have, and we will continue to contact oleksiy hetman, military analyst, veteran russian -ukrainian war mr. oleksiy i congratulate you and thank you for joining our conversation good evening good evening mr. oleksiy so today, december 1, the beginning of winter, we know that the situation is quite tense now on the eastern front near bakhmut, and as the analysts of the american institute for the study of war claim, the russian offensive on bakhmut did not teach the russians anything. because, actually , they already had such experience during the assault from

severodonetsk and lysychansk, when they threw powerful forces there in order to liberate these seize these cities well, what can you say now with the beginning of the winter campaign, because winter is a rather difficult period at the front, and with the situation on bakhmut, how do you think the further situation in the east will develop, taking into account the fact that both putin and the sheikh every time emphasize the fact that for them it is fundamental for mega to take control of donetsk and luhansk regions of the war research washington american he said that these actions near lysichansk and north donetsk of our armed forces gave an opportunity to hide the large forces of the russian federation and then we made an approach and after what they lost a large number of people and equipment there. and we kept our strength, we kept the military personnel of the bc and well, everything that is needed for

the war and then this enabled us to advance in other directions, the same thing is now happening near bahmut, it is basically a tactical meaning, even a research institute has arisen, says the tactical meaning is a settlement, and from a military point of view, there is none. it most likely has an emotional and political load, because the russian federation really needs to do at least some show some victories therefore, for six months there have been hostilities there, but they have not been able to move forward and take over the place yet. i think that our armed forces - this is not a big secret, they will hold on there until the last as much as possible considering the losses that the enemy bears and , unfortunately, what we bear if he concentrates there, i mean the enemy, a very large number of equipment and military personnel and it will be pointless for us to lose the lives of our people in order for this

place to remain under our control right now, i think that we will do as we did in lysychansk and severodonetsk, so far we can try a very large force of the enemy and they are suffering colossal losses there. so i think that this works very correctly, will this place remain ukrainian, it will definitely remain ukrainian, but if we have to leave for a certain time in order not to lose people and equipment, i think it is called tactical defense, according to the statutes of the armed forces, we can do it in principle there and once again the principle of tactical military significance is that it is a settlement of no great account. yes, our people are there, it is they who must be protected, they do not want to be subjected to decoupage, but a war is a war and there you need to take the right steps for that in order to finally achieve victory, and not to win in just one settlement, we have to win a war, and not a war because of a fight for some high ground or for some settlement,

even if it is god. but this is a war, it has already started today. the minister of foreign affairs of the russian federation, serhiy lavrov, said that russia in ukraine is attacking the infrastructure that helps kill russians. they help us to give heat to apartments and electricity, well, they mean transformers and various substations, that they interfere with russia there and threaten the russians. well, he can agree to any other stupid thing, but at the same time, british intelligence says that russia's strategy to destroy the ukrainian energy industry is becoming everything less effective , in particular, british intelligence officers say that they saw in the massive strikes that the

russians carried out on the energy network of ukraine since october 10 the implementation of a strategic operation with the destruction of critically important targets, which with its data is in the russian military doctrine, well, that is, in fact, as nato secretary general jens stoltenberg said, winter has turned into another weapon for the russian federation beauty on civilian objects and critical infrastructure russia itself is trying to provoke ukrainians to you, they expressed their dissatisfaction with the authorities. well, and accordingly they pushed for the victory of zelensky and putin, how do you think this winter is long , obviously we will have it, how will it affect the during the russian-ukrainian war, and specifically in 2022-2023, regarding the statement of lavrov, firstly, who says that they are destroying some

structures that help us defeat the enemies, and you know how it is not visible, i am completely with him i agree. the fact is that anything that is in ukraine, anything helps to destroy the russian enemy, that's why you can deal with him here. yes, joking a little, agree that even if he , i'm sorry, understands the stall that prepares coffee, then drink coffee before between rotations, a person also adds this they have the ability to further destroy the enemy better. therefore, everything that is on the territory of our country, thank god. we have very few collaborators and people who are not united around the common idea of ​​​​protecting our ukraine. anything in ukraine, even a tree, helps to destroy the russians . invaders, this is the engine of lavrov. no wonder the fool said something that is a little true, although on the other hand, it concerns the russian winter, they even

used such memes for a long time, the well -known general moroz, they say that it will help them win as there are books, there are some historical genetic experiences , starting with the napoleonic war, well, this is completely stupid. because those troops, including even the german troops, the napoleonic french troops, these were the people who fought in these trainings, but they are europeans there, the climatic conditions are slightly different, and for them, in contrast, 10 is very the temperature is cold, we are fighting on our land. we know very well what kind of winters we have and we know how to behave, even if there is a big increase in those carts that are conducting combat operations - it will not worsen them in any way combat quality, on the contrary, when this mud after the rain freezes a little, we will be able to move more quickly and more actively, not only goose, but even wheeled vehicles will be able to drive normally.

conditions. therefore, it will give our troops the opportunity to better attack the faces of the russians in our country, even when we temporarily stop somewhere. we have dugouts . i don't even know what a bourgeois is, she makes the trenches nervous, that is, we won't freeze, they froze this winter, that's why all their actions are a strategy to destroy our infrastructure facilities - this is an attack not on our armed forces, this is an attack on the civilian population in order to, as you correctly said, pay grievances of our government and encourage ukrainians to take procedural actions on them, well, let's not, let's remember, we have already made such mistakes, we believed that the enemy is not in the kremlin, but the enemy is somewhere in our main offices, let's correct this mistake don't do it again. let's remember that the enemy is in the kremlin, that's our main enemy, that

among our uh, our leadership, well, it's a pity for any country, it's not only ukraine, there are people who are not quite patriotic, even an enemy agent can do it to reveal and this is exactly what you have to fight with these people who are in power who are in which there is a large amount of enmity between spies or scouts such and such well, because there knows about jason bond about squird these films such is in any war in any country in the world but blame all power, the entire institution of the ukrainian government, because it is somehow to blame, and if you translate putin's provins into i don't want to call the plus of zelenskyi or any other people, who are we? what did we do ? security with the help of the cia with the help of the honor to appear identify neutralize arrest and so on there is everything that needs to be done with them, but

blame the entire ukrainian government because it can see in something that such disturbances are happening works from the russian federation are inadmissible because it is not the government, you are not a state institution of ukraine, putin and the russian federation are to blame. who is to blame? because they are our enemies, let's not confuse one with the other, this is very important, by the way, we will still be united, okay unite not around the surname, but around the name of our country, let's unite around ukraine, by the way, about ours, about our enemies, for the second time in the last week, russian propagandists ask questions about the defeat of russia in the war with ukraine, the first was simonyan on solovyov's program, the essence of the speech is that if they do not win, the russians are meant. all russians will be guilty, even those who did not support putin's regime and those who are abroad , and by the way, they have already started using the wording putin's regime, too. let's see

a small fragment from the propaganda of the russian tv channel, something will happen and our country will not be able to maintain the victory . the territory of the russian federation is located or outside the borders of the russian federation. just someone who is outside the borders will probably be immediately drawn, whether he is an aide to the putin regime or passed by. citizen of the russian federation and our future life , including how carefree it will be reparations so that none of this is necessary, such an intensification of hostilities is necessary, so we have to press and pressure them to turn to us for a truce

or to establish peace, well, in other words, we will put everyone, mr. oleksiy, as skibila said, in order to prove that we are right and in order to in order not to sit on the dock, well, literally, this means that we will fight to the last russian, at the same time, lavrov says that we are not at all considering the issue of negotiations with ukraine, but he is ready to listen to another the other side, as he said, this indignity, er, it makes such a very cunning political move here. i understand that it is written in certain er, of their prisoners who distribute it, there may be some instructions there. look what she says, er, she makes many analogies between tuya the guilt that germany bore after the second world war, uh , about the fact that there was gas, there was the

nuremberg tribunal, well, analogies that you were the entire german people, but then there is such a not-so-small shuffling, but none of the german people directly citizens of germany after the second world war he did not condemn world war ii in the sense that they had to be tried by a tribunal to kill and commit some kind of genocide. indeed, for 4 years, elections were held after the second world war because people had an ogov after that, after that propaganda, which was meant by skabeeva, it should be seen in the eyes of - if she were to say, she will answer, we remember, yes, the editor of the stormtrooper magazine, who was also lost for introducing propaganda, she will also answer, yes, war criminals will answer for the nurpism at your feet. those russians who supported putin's russian regime. they must repent and understand their mistake, as the

german people did after the second world war. hitler was already admired there. he was elected chancellor. as far as i remember, he gathered more than a million people at one rally , that is, this person who was very respected and very mistaken, people loved the germans, so this is a war crime that was made a crime before the second world war the war, they were condemned, someone was imprisoned for life, who was lost, someone from another term . and the people should have understood the mistake and apologized, but no one did it, and no one is going to do it to the german people and satiate the russian people and destroy all these people, but we have understand what they are, they will be isolated from this world until they understand what they have done, maybe even 40 years, when the new generation will grow up, which has not seen, as they say, rape, they have not seen putin, maybe

after that we can still live with him and them next to each other they will not fly anywhere to another planet, it will still be our eastern border. therefore, we must realize this, but we must understand that if we simply go to the border of our country and end the war , nothing in russia will change . as chechen second he will be in the second ukrainian on and she will be more powerful she takes into account her mistakes that's why she would connections russian viewers, we understand what they say . and people think, well, they see, we have to fight to the last, who is all of us there, no one will calm down, no one will touch you because you have other claims, but not in the sense that you will be judged by hanging the janitor or and grab abroad and somewhere like that you won’t do anything like that, calm down but you will answer, you will bear, simply put, not a criminal immoral responsibility and

until you do, you will be isolated from this civilized world well, in the end, i want give one more quote, or rather the synchronicity of sergei lavrov, about the fact that the kremlin suggests the emergence of tension in the area of ​​the south china sea. as lavrov says, the nato forces are moving the defense lines further to the east. we will hear about lavrov 's line of defense. to the east and it will probably pass somewhere in the area of ​​the south china sea, taking into account the territory that sounds from washington, brussels, australia, canada, london, and the south china sea are now becoming one of those regions where natovtsi don't go away, as they once did in ukraine, they don't firmly suppress tension, but we know

how seriously the people's republic of china treats this kind of provocation, not to mention the taiwan strait. so, alexey lavrov still wants to ... russia's war against ukraine has turned into a multi-level war, then i understand that putin has a chance to agree on something yes yes yes yes according to your opinion are you correct and another scoundrel uh only he is more intelligent than skibeyeva well look what he is doing he is trying he is trying to impose on china well, don't take it somehow to express the opinion that the united states, because it is the main player of the nato bloc, well, financially, in terms of the number of armed forces, that they seem to be trying to put pressure on china in a big way in a big way, so he was telling it, we know that the leaders of the united states and

the people's republic of china met there, most likely there were certain agreements, they apparently agreed on a bipolar world where china will be at one pole and the center of america will be connected to the other, but this there will not be a military conflict, it will be a competitor well, it should be competing with each other for spheres of influence without the use of armed forces, the russian federation but no one sees, well, it will not be a third party it can only be somewhere uh, like a gas station near china, so the russian federation of course, it considers itself a superpower with one percent of gdp compared to 20% in the world. well, there is 15 times less. that is why lavrov does not hesitate to try his people in russia or let us all fight for us all of us they are beating, but they are trying to crucify the enemy with china, which is america, in the grand scheme of things, it

is shorter to capture something there. i don't understand this not so subtle game of his, not me. if i'm not a political expert, if it doesn't cancel right away, it's clear, then people there are smarter than me, it's shorter to understand when thank you, mr. oleksiy it was oleksiy, the hetman, a military analyst, a veteran of the russian-ukrainian war, friends, we work in live broadcast next espresso tv channel broadcast continues i want to encourage you to subscribe to our social networks see our news on the espresso tv website we work for you 24 hours a day seven days a week i wish everyone a good day and a peaceful weekend goodbye greetings - this is freedom lime my name is vlasta lazur, we are starting to release us president joe biden addressed
