to the director of the center for the study of the army, conversions and armaments, fuel latin, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, mr. serhiy, congratulations. today we celebrate the day of the armed ranks, the transformation of the ukrainian army took place to the level that now allows the ukrainian army to rewind this longest second army in the world, what has changed in the approaches of our armed forces. well, you can it is true to say that the armed forces have radically changed during this time and it is certain that these changes were ensured precisely from below, that is, due to the growth of morale and motivation for the resistance, and then it was, so to speak , formalized into the modern form of the armed forces that exists now, among other things. of course, we can say that there is a new generation of general commanders. and this is also a very, very powerful situation because now

there is a large credit of trust in all to the commanders of all levels, i mean the top military command, among other things, of course, what contributed to this was the growth of the initiative on the ground, and we remember that i personally recorded this story that after the first use of the drone brsr, in fact, we faced the fact that e decisions began to be made operationally quickly and e in fact, it allowed e to work so that from the sergeant, let's say so, the junior commander to the highest commander to the highest general of the danes, everything is happening as it should be in principle and it was in this situation that the ukrainians demonstrated itself such a smart army, probably one of the smartest armies in the world, it is certainly not possible to

mention that the american anti-radar missile was adapted to a ukrainian fighter or the situation when it is described. by the way, difference-xpress is very good about how the french self-propelled artistic installation caesar was installed on a barge and actually turned into a floating battery. yes, that is, such very powerful operations, complex planning began , for example, this complex planning is typical during the destruction of the flagship of the russian black sea fleet, the cruiser moscow, in fact, for the first time since the second world war, such a ship of this level was destroyed, and of course, this planning took place in the use of various weapons systems of various capabilities, but in the end the ship was sunk by ukrainian missiles, it is also very

important that the armed forces actually became the core of the resistance of the entire ukrainian nation, the nation and the combination with society took place as a result of the fact that everyone felt the presence of a real e of the national idea of ​​rallying around the fight against the enemy, and this turned out to be very significant for the armed forces. systems such as mason or heimerzlaw were in the shortest possible time, the terms were actually mastered and are now being used. i think that everyone saw on december 5th , 6th, the strikes when the war was moved to the territory of russia, this is also another creative move by

the ukrainian armed forces, which allows now in the western edition what to expect new and unexpected from the ukrainian armed forces, and these are also very important points of the issue of growth, now the biggest challenge for the armed forces will be the unification of weapons and the integration of ukrainian developments of ukrainian opportunities actually in order to this was valentyn batrak, director of the center for army conversion and disarmament research, a military analyst and a writer. is the center of consolidation of our resistance efforts and the ukrainian army will really provide us with victory

over the aggressor, these were the main military results of this era and more international and more economic news from my colleagues on the espresso channel. thank you very much, serhiy skvortsuu. thank you to the guests. you know, before yuriy fizruk, i will pass the word on . a little about the revocation of the license of the board tv channel in the territory of latvia, well, in ukraine it was revoked a long time ago. but now and there, the dozhd channel was fined because on december 1, their presenter said something like this, these anzitska, these khandziatsko, so he is the host, we we hope that many servicemen, including us, were able to help, well, this is the army of the

aggressor who came to kill ukrainians. we were able to help, for example, with equipment and even basic amenities at the front, because the stories of which were told by relatives , to be honest, they were already fat, that is, the glavred of this tv channel quietly er admitted that their tv channel and their employees help military personnel at the front in any case er any support er for the army of the aggressor is aiding the aggressor yes that is boys here we are we help the boys, the boys sit at home and watch tv, they work for a hundred or work as lawyers or work in bakeries as drivers of the boys, they live a peaceful life. and on the front, they are murderers, because they are murderers, the military of the aggressor country, and in latvia, without thinking for a long time, this tv channel was banned about the tears of the founder of the tv channel and how he was allowed there at all,

how he was fed by european hands and how they can live on now and is this really kremlin propaganda i will tell you more and now yuri fizer more about events outside of ukraine the world about ukraine yuriy good evening please good evening to you vasyl good evening as usual to everyone who joined our broadcast today about such things kosovo wants to join the european union turkey is also delaying the ratification of the application of sweden and finland to join nato and in russia was again on fire about this and other things already in a moment in the world about ukraine column well, but i will start with this: ukraine must have everything necessary for self-defense in the conditions of unprovoked russian aggression that began on february 24 of this year and must be able to return temporarily occupied territories about this during a press conference during a conference organized by the wall street journal, us

secretary of state anthony blinken said, moreover, he called on allies and partners to make maximum efforts so that our country also receives humanitarian and financial assistance to restore its damaged infrastructure, but when one of the journalists asked plinkin whether the armed forces of ukraine can then try to return crimea, he did not answer directly, but said this is a quote, the ukrainians themselves decide where they want to go and how they plan to do it , but with our support, that is, he did not answer directly, he did not say, but he hinted that if ukraine returns crimea, the united states of america will help it do it. states, when a comrade is ready to lend a shoulder, estonia will continue to provide ukraine with the help it needs to restore critical infrastructure damaged by muscovites,

but if the new wave of ukrainian refugees from ukraine it will be like this, estonia will not be able to accept the process, to their great regret, said prime minister kayakals today, she added that her government is doing everything possible, but the potential for that is ending, however, the prime minister added that finland agreed to help estonia. she decided to accept all those who do not will be able to find refuge in estonia well, indeed, a friend is recognized in trouble and here, too, i can only say a huge thank you to our friends in estonia and in finland well, the european union, unfortunately, could not agree on the allocation to ukraine of financial assistance in the amount of 18 billion euros and blocked this decision. of course, you can guess even from the first time, to

hungary's great regret. at today's meeting of the finance ministers of the european union, the representative of budapest criticized the decision of his colleagues, however, this did not disappoint the other ministers , the chief financier of the czech republic zbynes stanyura - said that he and his colleagues are trying to find a legal way out of this situation, and they will try to provide assistance to ukraine even without the consent of hungary. well, if they set such a goal, such a goal set before themselves, sure that they will find this legal way out, it is to a certain extent immoral, yes, the minister of finance of lithuania commented on the refusal of hungary to participate in the european union's collective assistance in the reconstruction of ukraine and to allocate 18 billion euros for this she said on the sidelines of meetings with her

colleagues in brussels, belgium, according to the chief financier of lithuania, official budapest had to agree with the fact that ukraine needs to be supported, but hungary will do it the government should have allocated the european union not through the joint loan that it allocated to ukraine, but independently through bilateral direct contacts of the agreement with the ukrainian government. well, for this it has already allocated 187 million euros from its budget to allocate it, but not . billions of euros that we really need to get away with, not you, and the european union called on the countries of the western balkans to support the introduction of anti-russian sanctions , this is stated in the declaration based on the results themselves eu of the western balkans, which took place today in the capital of albania, tirana, is obviously a kind of appeal to serbia, which wants to become a member of

the european union, but at the same time has not yet supported the sanctions against russia, in the text of the declaration , in particular, it is said that brussels calls on countries that want to become members of the eu to a next quote to do everything as soon as possible in order to comply with the common and foreign policy and the security policy of the european union, including the introduction of restrictive measures . you can say whatever you want, you want to be in the eu or you don't want to be. are you against russia or not against russia, but there is a policy and you must comply with this policy. if you want to be in the eu, will you think about it? in the european union, the government of the partially recognized republic is going to submit an application for joining the european union by the end of the current year, prime minister viosa osmani announced this

during her participation in the eu form in the western balkans, according to the head of the government of kosovo, she hopes for support, and then a quote from the minister, i am here as the leader of one of the most pro- european countries and we have already proven it. now we need the eu to move from words to deeds, such as the liberalization of visas to the eu. i, er, to the president of serbia, aleksandr vučich, er, mrs. prime minister kokos said that he continues to think in the old way, and it's finally time to decide who he is with russia or with the country. will think to himself well, mr. uchach did not waste time and it is obvious that he responded to this reproach of the

kosoya prime minister. what to say about this, he said while participating in the summit, there are the western balkans. in tirana, mr. uchich emphasized that serbia is an independent country that is on its way to the european union, and according to him, it will continue to be so if he decides on sanctions and if he will decide on the support of ukraine, then he will have something turkey will ratify the applications of finland and sweden to join nato only after these countries fulfill all that they promised to do earlier , that is, to fight terrorism more actively, but until they do this, the process was said today by the minister of defense of turkey of the republic in lucy akar , according to him, official ankara is closely monitoring how stockholm and helsinki fulfill their

promises, but at the same time he added that, unfortunately , the provocative actions of finland and sweden continue what it is not known what he meant when he spoke of provocative actions, he did not specify, but he emphasized that the government of his country will wait for specific steps from the leadership of both sweden and finland . to understand and in the end and why to understand it, just listen, the governor of the volgograd region, andriy bocharov, proposed to rename the city of volgograd and return it to its old name, stalingrad, for this purpose, representatives even created a public committee who intend to study the opinion of the townspeople regarding such an initiative, the governor said that the name stalingrad

symbolizes the courage and heroism of the russian people, and although experts are somewhat skeptical of the fact that they support this proposal, the main thing is not the main thing - this is the bottom that russia has long broken and is flying into the abyss from which well, it’s clear, i really hope it won’t be chosen soon, and maybe it won’t even be chosen. we’re also waiting for such an option. and finally , i’ll tell you honestly that i want to sing, the base was burning. of course, in russia, this time in kursk not far from the ukrainian border, the fire occurred at around six in the morning at an oil depot near the local airport. it was previously used as a civilian and as a military one after the russian invasion of ukraine. it began to work exclusively for the russian army, according to the information of the governor of the kursk region, the oil accumulator is on fire, as he called it, and here is the video it can be seen that an

ordinary tank is on fire, it is burning well, the fire can be seen far away, and the black column of thick smoke is even further away. at least 50 firefighters and more than 10 units of special equipment, and from the moscow region they even drove three fire trains, well, with such good news. in conclusion, i just want to wish you a good and calm evening. that's all for me today in the world column. we will listen to people suffering from rheumatism and arthritic to i can't get used to it, it doesn't allow me to move. i've tried everything. and at the pharmacy, i bought a yellow dolgit cream. it saves me from rheumatism pain, reduces swelling and improves joint mobility. the only yellow cream for joint and back pain. we

we have no right to forget those who stood between us and the enemy, those who gave their lives so that we would be free, so that we would be a nation of free people. happy armed forces day of ukraine. good evening. the rain cried avatari and very much. as they say, she was poor. such a wonderful ukrainian word because the channel lost its license. i read about her. i have a friend on facebook who has been in prague for a long time promoting ukraine in general, fighting for the fact that the beggar was punished for crimes in georgia or in ichkeria in ukraine, and here she wrote a lot about how the rain and the state, the license,

you know, the secret equipment of the kremlin well, but you see , they told the lady yes well, we say we will not give we welcome to the studio of peter burkovsky, the executive director of the fund democratic initiatives named after mr. kakuchev petra, i congratulate you. good evening, we will talk about how ukrainians have changed in key er, some key ideas, maybe even values, in many ways , self-understanding, understanding of the state, er, and the enemy, probably also during that period, well, at least now we can we talk about what we have become now? tell me , please . how does it live? please , ah, i would like to highlight three main points. first, ukrainian society has become more

united. we conducted research during the coronavirus pandemic. for example, to the president of ukraine in december, this is already history, but in december 21st year, on open questions, who would be called the disappointment of the year, 45% of the surveyed summits named the name of president volodymyr zelenskyi, and we conducted research in august of this year, a few months ago. but nevertheless, it was still before the offensive of e-e in kharkiv oblast to the reported kherson and there the level of absolute trust in the president exceeded 60%, the level of trust in most local structures, what were the lessons there , the sbu police they also reached the historically maximum meaning, that is, people believe in ukrainian statehood

and believe in the main institutions of the main institutions of this statehood, ukrainians are ready to sacrifice themselves, this is the second and main conclusion of what we saw in october at the end of october this year already after the missile attacks when people have already been in many regions of ukraine for a long time there was no light, no heat, there was no water in some regions, so we saw that all the trials only strengthened people's conviction in the need to fight to victory and the need to support the state and the armed forces to the fullest what can be seen from the victories? we asked the question whether you would somehow compromise in order to end the war, so 66% said that no, the war will end only in the event of a victory, and another

17-18% said that compromises are possible but not on all issues. and only 4.5% said that, for the sake of peace , it is possible to go to all and to any compromises, let's remember when it came to uh, from the 14th, we studied this issue for 21 years, then it was a question of compromises regarding the end of the war in the east of ukraine so here is the share of those who said what certain compromises are permissible, not all but certain ones are permissible with russia it was the largest it reached 46-556% there it was larger now the majority two-thirds i emphasize for the fight to victory this is an extraordinary indicator of consolidation and the third indicator if we talk about our society this is already the final gap this is real a rift occurred, a break with the soviet tradition, if before the war in the 20th year we had only a third of the surveyed

imagine that they said that the soviet union approved the decision to condemn the soviet regime as of the totalitarian and his crimes. today, this figure also reaches 67%, and people understand that the soviet regime was totalitarian, and this gap with the soviet heritage is also the key. the russian orthodox church in ukraine, which is still called the ukrainian orthodox church, so the majority of our compatriots say that the activity of this church contributes to aggression and not to ukraine, that is, this last stronghold of this soft influence of the russian he also served in russia, he also fell, and i think these recent events show that we are also completely breaking the cycle of russian control , even over spiritual life

. hey, he grows so fast and when a person starts to grow very quickly, he may have problems with bones, tendons, and also with certain things . maybe these changes were all overdue a long time ago, there just wasn’t the environment in which it would start very quickly, these reactions started to happen, as they say, a chemical reaction, and that’s exactly the war, a full-scale invasion . of all ukrainians, it is possible that this became the environment in which all these changes eventually manifested themselves. and we were already such as you assess, but after all, this is a rapid and painful growth. is this an environment in which something happened that should have happened a long time ago? it just didn't happen. for this prerequisites and here you held in both cases uh, that is, both both answers yes on the one

hand and since the time of the first maidan in 2004 then the revolution of dignity of the 14th year we showed the ability to consolidate to cohesion to self-sacrifice to support the volunteer movement in our country flourished after the 14th year and during the war. in fact, this volunteer movement in many ways, again, extremely helped our armed forces, so yes, in some ways, we were, er, absolutely right, they said in some ways, we were ready, yes tests, but shock, but the shock of the war, so it was very much affected, and what happened here was not a sharp growth, again, i would say, but a sharp gap happened, the revaluation of certain values ​​​​finally realized their fate that our fate is life alongside a very dangerous a very

dangerous regime with man and we understood that agreements with this regime are impossible peaceful coexistence and well, we did not choose this path of war, yes we were pushed to war, they tried for a very long time to conquer us with such hybrid methods undermining from the inside and pressing from the outside, clarifying this wound in the east of the country, they tried to undermine our forces, they tried to oppose each other, they told us that in our country, somewhere, there is a party of peace and a party of war, and that the oligarchs are tearing the country apart, that corruption will not destroy , that is, everything everything everything they used us to prove some idea that we are a viable state, but in 9 months of war we showed that we are not just a viable state, one of the strongest states in europe, in fact, it turns out like this. that is, we ourselves were surprised by the fact that our statehood, which was still called weak and incomplete

, in which even the united states did not believe, it turned out to be much more powerful and much more resistant, but we really expected this, and we are still aware of this fact. literally two minutes for each, well , a little less, briefly, the first thing is, is the boundary between, as always, western and eastern ukrainians in our country loved the north and the south and the north, the northeast, and there is the southwest, or something else now? this war, ukrainians are becoming more monolithic, and there are some such disagreements that maybe they were possible to rewrite them, you know, such well-conceived things are standard, if they existed, then during the war they really try to do this, and even the fact that many ukrainians now live in another region where he lived is possible and this also gives it in order to get to know each other and take over something from each other as the residents of volyn say to the residents of the luhansk region and the residents of mariupol to the residents of lviv

, i would like to say very briefly that the regional they remain, but there is such a difference as linguistic linguistic identification, i.e. what language do you speak, which do you consider ukrainian as your native language, but it happened so historically that you speak russian and now language has ceased to be a factor of division uh, here language is no longer an obstacle we, the russian-speaking and the ukrainian-speaking, look in the same direction to build the ukrainian state - i will say this for sure, and accordingly, the removal of this language barrier will in many ways remove this division into regions, that is, this old division into macro-regions is already disappearing, it is becoming more relevant, and for other reasons the division into a deep focus on the center of the country and, for example, the french, but here it is more connected with the

security situation with challenges for life. -e trust ratings for certain politicians or maybe for certain public military figures who are not yet in politics, but they are already saying a please take a look and how are ukrainians supporting them? so far you did not receive such messages as they say . please, the fund did not receive politicians . they are part of us as a 10th party. they know that we will show this picture as it is and we will not allow our brand or name to be used to advertise someone or vice versa. to humiliate someone eh although i saw that, yes, i know that such studies are conducted. unfortunately, it is very strange to me that during the war someone is still trying to think about ratings, it is very strange and well, this is not what you should be doing at the moment. really interesting bo you know, they once told me such a story, well, the person who was involved in this, how they sent him requests for research on the electoral

preferences of such a person as volodymyr zelenskyy , then he generally understood what all this was for. well, you see, someone then already wanted to know. is there trust or not? well, what about namely, at some time, we got a president. well, in principle, thank god, now we have a president of the supreme commander-in-chief. less so, but once upon a time someone also started with the fact that a look at how he was, it was just very interesting you know, we will find out who is now being taken, so to speak, into these computing orbits, who are they interested in? well, maybe we will find out someday, although again, now we have to concentrate on the fight to victory. ilko kucherev's initiative on the mood of ukrainians, how we have changed, we have changed, we have changed very much and you know, somewhere there in the fund
