face, because how is putin without a face? he will never stop. if you want to save his face, then he has to go to a cosmetic salon, so that his face was frozen and painted in some way, and it was preserved in history somehow visually, but politically, he has never been a face. history will preserve him, he signed this sentence for life and after his death he will be in the history books as a person who went to war against a peaceful state, trying to buy territories operating according to the principles of both geopolitics and 15th century war now there is a popular film about the first world war, er, on the western front, the mass media, it describes our war in a very similar way. it’s been more than 100 years, but what has changed? and the fact that putin lives by such outdated matrixes, well, it is indicated that he as a person maybe he is still functioning, you know, he breathes, he goes to the toilet, he eats, but mentally he

has long been mummified, numified, what kind of figure is it, except that the mausoleum is not lying, but it is already very much on the way to them. well, he is not there when we first arrived, but you see, we are discussing statements well it doesn't matter who voices them, but it's putin's, it doesn't matter if it's lavrov piskova or someone else , but these theses are still being given, and that means the opinions of the people of food and uber, the recent statement of the secretary general of nato regarding the fact that the war can get out of control and it will already escalate in a big war and it will already be a confrontation between nato and the russian federation and not just russia and ukraine. that is, these are the consequences of such statements and we still see in the west that they are watching what is happening in ukraine out of fear. i would not say that it is out of fear. they are trying to predict different scenarios with totenberg in relation to ukraine changed his position just like chancellor scholz and i would, by the way, if they asked me who is the champion of the 22nd year among european

politicians, i would name stoltenberg and scholz exactly to these surnames because at the beginning of the war they were extremely careful, and this caution over time looked like this. well, a little bit, a little bit, and there will be an anti-ukrainian position. and now they are completely on the ukrainian side. germany strongly supports ukraine. we never dreamed of this under the previous government in scholls actually apologized to germany, well, he didn’t say it directly, but he said that geopolitical changes had taken place, and these changes will never allow russia to be in the same status for germany as it was before , uh, he is our great ally, and i am personally and convinced that people are gathering in geopolitics, grateful and they understand that without the sun it didn’t happen, we need more leopards now we want to get it tanks that are able to completely change the war scenarios right on the battlefield leopard sleds are the second, but even

what germany has already transferred from pto systems to the anti-aircraft guns for the destruction of kamikaze drones and so on. this is already a very large contribution. panzer howitzers are also one of the most modern artillery installations that fight on our territory on the ukrainian side . he said, calling on the europeans, addressing them, that we europeans really started paying more for electricity and gas now, we pay from our wallets, but stay with us, our neighbors pay with their lives, ukrainians pay with their lives, that's why we have to grit our teeth and silently continue to support ukraine, so let's not see, you know, in some possible nuances more than it is just a current nuance, it was expressed somehow, and it is practically strategic, and scholzki is essentially on

our side, and for me these are two great discoveries of the 22nd year and lately we have seen statements from the american side that the united states will no longer insist that the armed forces of ukraine do not strike russian territory. the times, in particular. what do you think this means for us and will our american partners increase their aid to us with weapons? this means that the americans are coming to the realization that it is impossible to defeat russia only on the territory of ukraine, that is, in order to defeat it, it must be cut off. the logistics chain for them, well, that is, the supply of weapons, the supply of fire fighters, the project, the supply of military equipment , the supply of the soldiers themselves, the supply of diesel fuel, the supply of food, all of this goes from the territory of russia

or from our temporarily occupied territories. where do they go too? fall from the territory of russia in order for these logistical chains to be broken, which means that it is then necessary to attack those targets that are the beginning of the logistical chain, accordingly, the americans realize that otherwise it will just be a war that will last indefinitely , but it is better to end it earlier, accordingly, to end it earlier, you need to be more realistic, realism is that it is then necessary to attack targets on the territory of russia that give the russian aggressor this rear support and another 270 million dollars in military aid to the united states allocated to ukraine 55, yes, 200, well, 5 million there, 5 here, and regarding fakes, regarding fakes, we would like to re-examine

because you are also interested in this issue. so the americans created biolaboratories in ukraine again, this topic once again surfaced in russia, what else have you ever heard or read in general, such an interesting and rather ridiculous thing? voiced and the poor shock had to listen to all this as an educated person, for example, putin lied about the fact that they began to attack the russians, our power system, our substations, stations, as if in response after ukraine struck the crimean bridge, but in fact these attacks were earlier and that putin is simply covering himself with this with the crimean bridge, it shows that he does not have any more believable arguments, and they, through their speakers, spread fake news

about the alleged intention of ukraine to blow up ammonia, which is stored in odesa port. this is complete nonsense . further, they told us that with the help of our laboratories, the americans here developed a new virus that kills 80% of animals, well , that is, it will also kill the corresponding people, too , you know, it is so primitive, primitive, it does not make an impression or but at the same time, if they were to strengthen this foundation, how flimsy it is, they have lies, they need to pour concrete on it from time to time, then they pour it on countries that think critically by our allies, it has very little, unfortunately, it has an impact there in africa and latin america, here we need to work more actively to convey our position and show these fakes how they are simply 100% false. by the way, interestingly, i recently

found out that in poland they are developing a whole network of fake media and in the polish telegram and websites and everywhere, for example, they have already dispersed such a political project called an independent political diary , a polish publication that i... the source of fakes is simple they translate them into polish and distribute them on polish territory and this is media, it is disguised as normal, but they recently had a puncture and this puncture showed that they are controlled from moscow because in their publications in polish on the polish website they use the name not bakhmut, but artemivsk but artemivska is called our bakhmut only by russian propagandists, er, this name has not been used in ukraine for a long time, and thus such a stupid enough mistake completely exposed this project as being controlled by russia, so it is worth simply

to understand that they are leading many hybrid warriors , including creating even on the territory of the european union countries, lying mouthpieces that try to poison urban local audiences, our importance is to point out and help the poles, including to understand that this is a lie, they made the ninth sanctions package where they will ban more than likely four russian tv channels. i hope there will be more of them, including other media resources in the future telegram channel. thank you for the opportunity to join. serhiy leshchenko, advisor the head of the office of the president of ukraine, a large-scale blockade in the odesa region made adjustments to the work of a number of critical infrastructure enterprises, some of them were forced to temporarily suspend work before the restoration of electricity supply. but in what mode do the bread factories work and will they leave odessa with bread, tetyana beshinar will tell about the massive missile attack p' on december 1st, all equipment in odesa and

the region was shut down for a few days, and while some of the critical infrastructure facilities were waiting for the restoration of electricity supply, the odesa bread plant was more than 10 hours worked on a powerful generator in order to provide bread to the city of milionnyk region, as well as kherson and remote settlements of the mykolaiv oblast, little by little, your orders are more. there is no need to panic, because 960 employees at four enterprises in odesa, belgorod-dniester and podilsk work around the clock and in shifts to produce 115 tons of bakery products. the work of our enterprise but we are not much and odessa has nothing to worry about, in fact, the enterprise is working at full capacity almost at full capacity

, we still have reserves, we have a generator of the necessary capacity to ensure all production processes, now the price of bakery products has become however, the company says that due to the malfunctioning of the plant, the operation of the generator makes the production process more expensive. if the situation with the electricity supply does not stabilize, it is possible that the price of bread will increase and the price of bread will increase. now we will talk with sergey barchuk, the spokesperson odesa city administration, mr. serhiy, congratulations good night colleagues glory to ukraine glory to the armed forces congratulations yes yes the day before the odessa city council announced that there will be emergency shutdowns, but this is not even the main thing and the fact that well, some benefits such as electric transport trolleybuses should not have worked the day before, what is the situation now and what will happen to the let's say so children's vacation. because here, too, there is something to tell the parents of these very

odessa children. new year's liquid, the holidays will take place , that is, any changes are not planned, and they have already spoken about it to the city council, which also suffered the most from this lockout, that is, from massive strikes , especially on december 5 of this year. nor trolleybuses on the line do not go on their routes in order not to cause a greater voltage load on the power grid because the situation remains quite difficult, although it was possible to stabilize the operation of critical infrastructure, they are all connected, also connected for heating, 11 large boiler houses of the city of odessa, almost all small boiler houses are also already working, but there are still some problems, and we are really talking about

emergency and external shutdowns of electricity, we are talking about the fact that today the power industry is trying to connect, first of all, objects of critical infrastructure and said as well as household consumers because it is necessary for people for further life in order for them to have the opportunity to work and for the economy, including extremely for our joint victory, as for hospitals and maternity homes, they did not stop their work for a single minute, and where it was necessary and necessary, it was in the first hour. after the missile strike, they switched to alternative energy sources, that is, on generators, including those that are powerful. they work and appropriate maintenance is being carried out, that is, in this regard, everything is fine. as for the entire region, by the way, we had one call, it concerned first of all odesa , of course, and most territorial communities other districts of the odesa region

worked in the same mode in which they worked until december 5 of this year. by the way, we planned that on december 5 we would go to planned shutdowns of our consumers, that is, there was a clear schedule, unfortunately it did not happen, but i hope that in a few days this is not a forecast, but a reality. in a few days, it will be possible to get a more or less stable connection. the panacea is here . tatyana is our old lady. when i didn’t talk about the work of critical infrastructure in the odesa region in particular, what is happening in the city in that context ? you know the thesis that it is better without light but without you. this is meant in relation to the russians who are so far from you without you, but in the capital, in particular, some networks have already indicated that even in conditions where the light is partially turned off. well, i will not pay for the electricity anyway , thanks to the generators there the shops and stores and even some supermarkets will be able to work, but what about this in odesa, especially there? come on . well, no one has canceled christmas and new year , after all, the little ones also want to

go somewhere with their parents. will they have such an opportunity ? i think that closer to the christmas holidays, to st. nicholas day, we will already be looking at the situation that is developing . enemy ships, there are no missile carriers among them, but this does not reduce the missile threat itself. i hope that even in such conditions, of course, we will remind the children and we are already talking about our holiday calendar said about st. nicholas day and christmas holidays , so many people will celebrate christmas on december 25. someone may even be preparing for this for the first time. our boys here

in the east and south are fighting precisely so that ukrainians, first of all, you can support them morally. and this is very important when you understand that your family is safe. well, secondly, we see what we are fighting for and stand for who are we fighting because he is the one who fights better a soldier has something to fight for and not just against someone , that's why i think that the festive mood will still be preserved despite the war, and it must be . voroshilo with the call sign kara, who received the title of hero of ukraine the day before, told how he managed to escape from a burning plane on the day when he shot down five iranian drones, it happened on october 12, then during the destruction of the fifth martyr, he was damaged by debris and the plane itself was injured, so the pilot was forced to eject in vinnytsia region. the locals there already christened it the vinnytsia drive. my

morning began at four o'clock. they gave an air signal, and one pilot also destroyed two martyrs in the south of ukraine. the next one went. i also destroyed three and made a landing on operational airfield without consequences, then it was a working day on other tasks, and in the evening this rush started again and took off from the operational airfield in the south of ukraine and then already carried out destruction in the sky vinnytsia carried out guidance and interception of the fifth air target, carried out a hit on this air target and, unfortunately, after the destruction of this target, it was damaged by the fragments of the explosion. my aircraft was damaged. the lantern was destroyed. this is the glass of the cabin . himself, in simple language and

the destruction of the front part of the nose of the plane, was not badly injured, but still the blood prevented me from assessing the full price of the situation, the first thought. i don’t want to talk about it any further, a fire has already started right inside the plane’s cabin. carried out the catapulting of the bezlovyans as the book taught ukraine volodymyr zelensky awarded pilot vyacheslav gorka with the order of the gold star for the defense of kyiv posthumously the award was accepted by the relatives of the fallen hero on february 24 vyacheslav yerko ensured the withdrawal of an aviation squadron from the attack ground, thus saving seven combat aircraft from being destroyed in the same day, five of them engaged in an air battle with russian aircraft that planned to strike kiev, the ukrainian hero shot down an enemy su-25 sud 35 and two

russian mi-24 helicopters, but vyacheslav's plane yerk was also hit by an enemy missile and he managed to eject and the russians, violating all the rules of warfare, shot our pilot in the air andriy illenko, an officer of the freedom battalion of the fourth brigade of the national guard of ukraine, we congratulate mr. andriy good night good night good night well, actually, here's an update on the situation in donetsk region, i would first like to hear your comments directly, er, you er, well, i would like to speak firsthand, because we heard the statement of volodymyr zelenskyi in particular, so it is not a secret that russians they have purposefully destroyed and already turned the city of bakhmut into ruins since the month of august, fierce battles are taking place there, but first, let's say that this direction and the attempt to capture the city was more of a propaganda element for the russians. and by and large, this is a kind of buffer so that

a bridgehead is possible for the armed forces of ukraine to then advance deep into the dnr, what do you think are the prospects in this direction for today? battles because there were active hostilities in kharkiv oblast, our kharkiv oblast was liberated, there were active hostilities and kherson was liberated, but it is simply necessary to understand that bakhmut held on all this time, although the pressure was intense and the enemy had drawn a large number of forces here, and precisely because all the forces were hidden here by the defenders of bahmut, they managed to act effectively in other directions and liberate our territory. now, in fact, in this direction , the enemy has withdrawn.

in an absolutely historical manner , they are trying to advance in order to show that at least somewhere they can still advance, that at least somewhere they can still carry out some assault actions on the initiative of a child and so on, but this insane pressure, despite the enormous density of the front that is now here and the intensity of the gods e ukrainian defense is strong in this direction and the enemy is suffering huge losses and in particular e-e and our freedom battalion and our fourth operational brigade of the national guard and all other units of the armed forces of the national guard of other forces the defenses that are currently in this direction in extremely heavy battles are holding back the enemy, draining the enemy’s strength, and indeed you are right, including that bakhmut is important as a bridgehead for the future from the e-e p andriy, we will try now absolutely and

do you agree with the opinion of military analysts, in particular american that this activity of the russians in the bakhmut direction is primarily aimed at preventing our armed forces from using their forces in other areas of the front, well, on the one hand, yes, but on the other hand, they they themselves dragged here now, in fact, everything that they have that is combat-ready and in the same way. in fact, they locked up here in fact, well, all their main forces and assembled here in battles, so definitely we are also forced to react to this by strengthening dry positions, but first of all, they hid their own forces here and in fact, precisely those forces that are capable of conducting offensive storm actions or at least try to do so, that is, in fact, all the combat capabilities they have are now here in this direction and regularly receive huge losses, and

accordingly, their combat capability is thickening and in the future, the possibility of using them somewhere in other directions decreases. the battle of bakhmut definitely goes down in the history of this war as one of the main battles, because it is possible to look at the map and see no major changes in the front lines even in the last month, but believe me, it is easy well, maddened by the efforts of the ukrainian soldiers, and this just shows the strength of the ukrainian army, which in extremely difficult conditions continues to hold the line and not let the enemy go further, and in this regard. of course, this is a huge heroism of every soldier who is now in the direction of bakhmut and holding positions, mr. andriyu, and how does winter change the situation on the front, how much frosts are there, which you probably already had and are still ahead, how much they benefit our side or maybe the

russians well, of course, war in the summer and war in the winter are completely different things, and the weather has a very strong influence , of course, the cold affects the frosts, now it's a bit positive again , the swamp is starting again, and then the frosts will hit, it will be cold plus, you have to understand that the daylight hours are very short, and the night is very long, and it is during the period of darkness, and now basically all combat operations, all attempted assaults, take place at a certain time of the day. of course, this all requires the appropriate technical equipment and drones that can work at night night vision devices, thermal imagers, and all this other stuff. well, all of this is needed in large quantities. of course, all this makes its own corrections, but if it is difficult to say in this case, on the battlefield, look, all

the circumstances do not work both ways, that is it's cold for everyone, and accordingly this factor affects both us and the enemy. you also need to understand that if there is a swamp, it reduces the possibility of using equipment. if frost and the earth are frozen, respectively, equipment can be used more. nuances , which are usually very intense in the winter period, or the nature of the intensity of hostilities, so thank you for the opportunity to join the broadcast and for your service. andrii ilenko, officer of the freedom battalion of the fourth brigade of the national guard of ukraine and it may not be possible to adopt a bill on the prohibition of the activities of the russian orthodox church , the committee on

humanitarian and information policy recommends to the parliament. of the orthodox church do not pose any threat to the churches of the ukrainian patriarchate about such a telethon on the air for his chairman of the verkhovna rada committee on of the humanitarian information policy of mykyta poturaev, according to him, no repressions against ukrainian religious organizations are being introduced. the bill on the banning of religious organizations is aimed only at protecting ukraine from the influence of hostile organizations. we protect and this is our consistent policy. we protect freedom and freedom of expression. affairs in religious affairs in the life of religious organizations eh the only thing that absolutely hostile religious organizations, and let's say you know now there were a lot of reports

about searches by the sbu in certain religious institutions, i won't even name them, and there they found a lot of literature and printed materials of a subversive nature races of ukrainian character and oleksii kubin, a political scientist , is now joining our broadcast oleksii, we welcome you good night i also congratulate you good afternoon so we would like to discuss with you this is actually a historical moment that is approaching if the parliament will adopt a bill on banning the activities of the russian orthodox church, what consequences will this have on religious life in ukraine? well , look at what mr. batrayev showed. i know that mr. boyko and others are giving you everything in the parliament. according to the law, it was not perceived as the interference of the state in religious dishes, and this is correct, because i really want to remind you that the

ukrainian state is my home state, and moreover, that is, in our country, the church is separated from the state in we cannot have any state church, but there are issues related to national security. actually , the decision of the national security and defense council is related to the symbol, and volodymyr zelenskyy said about it later, that is, so that, at the moment , new legislation would be adopted that would really banned the activity of religious structures in ukraine that have their center in the country of the aggressor, but there was a very important point that at the same time this legislation must comply with the principles of the council of europe, that is, regarding freedom of conscience and freedom confession is an important point because it is definitely us from the russian federation, where in fact we see that the rpc is actually part of the political mechanism and we all remember kirill's statements and so on, so in this case i think that the key point here is to we have continued to preserve in this

matter, er, this democracy, the possibility and so on, and the plus is a really important point - it is a matter of national security regarding how this law will function a-ah well, if it is adopted because i understand that there is more to it at the moment, there are still discussions there regarding the formulas of some certain formulations, for example, there regarding who can be called orthodox and so on, that is, i think that on this matter there are still a-a certain discussions can take place in the future. the first week of the security service of ukraine is not spent in the churches of the mentioned moscow patriarchate throughout ukraine, and where, by the way, they find propaganda and literature of unknown origin and there, after all, another thing, and that for which well, it would not be worth dividing during the war society is different, it works in general and for whom or not. should it be right now to insist on this and carry out such actions? well, look, i think that the security service is doing its job

because, after all, religious organizations include citizens of ukraine and again after all, the question of national security may also relate to the activities of individual representatives of such organizations , that is, i think that hiding with a religious organization is unlikely to work here, another matter, as we see that the uoc itself, starting from the spring, also took a course from i will simply remind moscow that in their charter they fulfilled the references to the connection with the russian communist party and began to cook the peace. that is, this is an indicator of such an attempt at automation. i remember that even olena bohdan is the head of the state committee on freedom of conscience and ethnopolitics she said that they are checking whether these documents can really state these things that the uoc itself has already taken a course, let's say, a departure from moscow oleksiy thank you for joining our conversation oleksiy kubin, a political scientist, was with us at the time well, just now we will
