from the point of view of the implementation of articles of the charter that relate to security, sanctions in the event that one country attacks another. they completely failed. well, they have nothing to answer for. if this country is a member of the security council, if it is a nuclear state, then the problem here is what is the security system on the basis of which it will be built. it is good to export grain there or to help fight with covids there, but the weapons are completely powerless. thank you, mr. valery, the time of our program is coming to an end . thank you for an interesting conversation. this was a politician and diplomat, valery chaly. this was a program the verdict was brought by serhiy rudenko. i say goodbye to you until tomorrow. tomorrow we will have andriy illenko and roman kostenko on the air. we will talk about the situation on the southern and eastern fronts of ukraine. we will see each other tomorrow for

what purpose. institute for the study of war, will putin increase the chances of the military success of the so-called special operation , the mass launch of kamikaze drones on the night of december 19, russia released iranian shahedis on ukrainian cities, most of the drones flew to the capital and most shot down the air defense forces ukraine will be represented at eurovision by a group of creative ternopil duets who chose the right to go to liverpool, which will host the contest instead of kyiv, or repeat the creative success of kalush and win for the second year in a row, watch on svoboda life congratulations today , december 19, on svoboda life my name is sashko shevchenko, we tell and analyze the main events of the day new attack by iranian drones kyiv and the region were the most affected 23 drones were recorded in the capital 18 of them

managed to be destroyed this was reported in the kyiv the city military administration, and in the kyiv region it is previously known about two victims as a result of hitting infrastructure objects, for more details about the consequences of the strikes on kyiv and the region, see the plot, it was easy to choose from that side, i was smoking, i was sitting just what exactly i hear a noise, i am walking there, an explosion immediately , one breakdown somewhere in a few minutes, after 3-4, the second explosion, i will tell you in the kitchen, i can see everything, i haven't walked for hours, i haven't gone anywhere,

but what can you do with the goat watcher so that it is empty for them to be soft, they will say the title once again , she banged already so that the walls were shaking and she saw the flame from my window, it was higher than the 5th floor, i'm on the fourth, but it was visible behind it, higher than these houses, the flame was a family and a dog, why don't you blame me for that, putin will die, and we will all die, too we will survive nothing terrible, we will be repaired and we will live for a long time and pray well that the moped is roaring, i looked at the surge, it goes and the moped then, after 30 seconds, a strong breakdown, all

three hours and 30 minutes and it started to growl loudly and make a terrible noise, and at the moment it was growling loudly it hurt so much he says, well, who has found it? i'll look at it . it's burning. it's as if everything was lit. i looked out the window when the garage was already on fire, baby, baby. and who are you looking for? grandma's dog was so small, she loved it, and it's probably no longer used. i was sent by the grandfather who lived with the grandmother. read more about the consequences of the russian

strikes on the kyiv region the day before, we spoke with the chief of the kyiv region police, andriy zavitov. unfortunately, today nine private buildings of our citizens were damaged, three people were injured thank god, it is not serious, so everything will be fine with their health, and unfortunately there are hits on energy infrastructure facilities, but the energy industry is already working and thanks to the measures taken, it was possible to prevent a hit on our energy infrastructure facilities; the police are already in contact with us, the editor-in-chief of defense express, oleg kadkov. good evening, thank you for the invitation, and in

your opinion, why did russia resort to drone strikes instead of missile strikes, what is this about ? can testify. well, first of all, if you take the last blow, then before striking with cruise missiles, a blow was struck precisely thanks to the martyrs 136. the question is that before they were combined, that is, on one day, both the martyrs were struck by kamikaze electrons or also by projectiles and cruise missiles missiles, but if there is a lot of recent experience, then they blew them up, the reasons may be different . but it seems to me that in this case, the russian federation is trying, first, to strike no more than once a week, one and a half or two, and secondly, under at the time of such shaheda strikes, we are most likely using radio-technical reconnaissance aircraft that lead to the reconnaissance position of the ukrainian channel-air defense, and according to the updated data regarding the location of the zenith missile complexes of sighting radars, flight trackers

for cruise missiles are being built, whether it is correct or correct to conclude that the threat of missile attacks in the near future is high. hm well, if we take the logic of the costs of what missiles the russian federation is carrying out, then let's say so, we can't talk about the fact that we have to wait for one a week, that is, from friday, but next friday and beyond, it can be threatening, that is, information on how many missiles are currently on the airfield there, for example, there is no english or diagelev or anything else, that is, it cannot be said here that he was hit there for a week now. maybe it is calm there to ignore air warning signals is wrong because i mean precisely in connection with drone strikes today. how did you say that it is possible to detect the location of air defense systems? and based on this, can it be, for example, preparation for a missile attack. well, i think so. that is, it can be like preparation and

just an element of carrying out methodical terrorist attacks, that is, constantly , that is, the fact is that they have already entered the tempo once a week and once and a half, once or twice, and well, all these they understand, and this is where terrorist attacks begin. especially since at night . and you mentioned that it is difficult to estimate how many missiles there are at which airfields. and what is not known about the number of drones? well, i will simply remind you that volodymyr zelenskyi reported today that a new batch of 250 drones had arrived in russia and it was supposedly from this batch. this is a test of just how many of these drones there are now in russia, and i think the process of their production has already been put on stream. that is, this is the current production of these kamikaze drones, which is carried out in iran, again, due to the fact that ivan is under sanctions due to the fact that it is extremely

it is a closed country there, it is even difficult to estimate the production capacity of the enterprises that produce the 136th shaheds, and in no case should we neglect such a threat . how did the production of license production, roughly speaking, of the 136th swindlers on the territory of the russian federation begin, that is, it seems to me that those capacities of the military-industrial complex the russian federation is quite enough for them to be able to carry out such a task, and perhaps there will be no outright purchase of the shahed, but something maximally conceptual will not interfere. and early did not interfere and early was after 1979, it is relative to the usa relative to the components of the military components. that is , any technological principles there. well, it’s just years and it didn’t prevent it, and it’s really not that the swindlers produce the 136th, but that they are exported, it doesn’t prevent him from trading missiles with the russian federation earlier it was also reported that the drones of the iranian

production of the mine-136 in particular cannot be used in winter, allegedly because of the strong wind and because of the temperatures, but today’s is so wonderful that it is not so. this is absolutely not true because the fact is that absolutely winter conditions, if the conditions were really about somewhere there - 40 -30, then it would be possible for you to talk about minus temperatures when we are talking about even -10 a-a even taking into account that civilian components are used there, i.e. civilian microcircuits that of civil electronics. but people have smartphones right from 10, you work calmly and there is nothing complicated. there really is a question regarding passive gusty wind, maybe there are separate questions, but they generally apply to all lethal vehicles, for example, in conditions freezing rain, but not just sub -zero temperatures. hmmm, there is another aspect related to the navigation of other moments, but

globally it will not affect their use . roads can be used to calculate the location of air defense systems, can the ukrainian e-e air defense system in some way prevent this, adapt , redeploy, in order to ensure - minimize damage from subsequent strikes, or is it it is not possible, all of this is closed, that is, all the means of enemy defense are always working, and this is not a secret. the command of the air force of ukraine also told me about the fact that all the means are constantly in maneuvers. that is , all of this is a system, it is constantly maneuvering and is prevented precisely in that the resistance fighters would have been asked and it was simply destroyed. that is, it all happened, the process started from the beginning of the invasion and it continues. but in any case, even with such a blow

, the enemy can estimate the density of the air defense in general in a certain area, that is, to understand that, for example , there is otaka in some area there, that is the number of anti-aircraft missile complexes, understanding that they are unlikely to be there in one or two days, half of ukraine will arrive there, and i will already deploy there, because the deployment of complexes is not easy, as in to any video they arrive, the radars are raised, the launchers are raised and everything is already working there, much more complicated processes and locations on the new launch area this is a rather complex complex task for the calculation, of course, ultimately wants still ask how many missiles can remain in russia, is it really possible to give an answer to this question. since we hear , in particular, from the secretary of the national security and defense council, mr. danilovo, that there are three or four more attacks at most, what can you skip from this, it is important to note that the main management intelligence of the ministry of defense of ukraine has already reported the rate of production of missiles of the e-e type in the caliber and x-101

, that is, sea-based air-based, and now they are estimated at the level of 40 units per month , that is, even e-e, if nothing will change, if we do not, there are already just zero missiles of the russian federation, then in one month they will have the opportunity to launch almost 101 e-e. of course, there are reserves there, there are significant reserves, and those missiles that are there are also announced, we are talking about e-e hundreds of units and they are being updated, that is , the process is going on and again in my opinion quite a lot . let's just say that we shouldn't expect at all that there in the russian federation some kind of armed forces will be completed and there will be no more strikes. they have already got the kh-22 missiles, which are shorter. you remember that it can use anti-aircraft missiles for the s-300 complex strikes against foreign targets will be against ships rockets over the cities, that is, in any case, its lack of some kind of weaponry does not lead to the fact that the kremlin raises a white flag and

decorates it instead of a star. meets with oleksandr lukashenka in minsk for talks in belarus putin may try to convince lukashenka to use the belarusian military together with russian forces for a joint attack on ukraine, some believe so analysts and military officials, others say that the russian leader may be trying to distract the military leadership of ukraine and draw its forces away from the fierce fighting in the east to the border with belarus in the north. the negotiations in minsk will be the first in more than three years when it is putin who is going to lukashenka and not on the contrary well, against the background of the talks between putin and lukashenka, the ministry of defense of russia announced battalion-tactical training in belarus. and yesterday it became known that russia could transfer at least 50 ural vehicles to belarus, which

can be used for the military and in the armed forces of the russian federation, the monitoring group of the belarusian forest informed about it, vladimir putin said that the growth of trade between russia and belarus last year and this year has increased, and alexander lukashenko said that he expects an equal treatment of belarus from the european union, let's listen, we hope that in the near future they will listen to the voice together and we will proceed to a constructive discussion of both issues related to security and the future of peace joint training with russia near the ukrainian border and visas to belarus from the first minister of defense of the russian federation shoigu to now and vladimir putin will russian troops try to cross the ukrainian border again and will the army of belarus join them more detailed materials this area is protected by the fighters of the volyn terrodefense despite the possibility of a breakthrough they emphasize the peculiarities

of the local terrain will create a lot of difficulties for the russian troops and the invaders will not be able to arrange another one on february 24 here in volyn, it will work as a close battle because as a rule they will not go through the forests because there is a lot of swamp and mud. the equipment will not go. the pendants will be on the roads , that is, the roads will be paved with roads along which you can drive there with an armored personnel carrier, well, it doesn’t matter with a tank, even so they must be restrained. chest, which will make a shot, take fire on itself, and the other means are not important, it is there. benches , javelins, they will work with closed from the side, because if the first machine stops, the column could be dug in the whole circle, the other a strategically important section of the border of belarus from the chernihiv region. it is from here that the russian army started the next chernihiv on february 24 and further on. ukrainian troops are constantly in a state of heightened combat readiness, a deeply

echeloned defense line has been created, they are the first to meet the enemy in the event of an attack, the border guards are preparing for them, there is a big obstacle - this is the dnipro river, if it is very difficult to pass through it , but you should take into account the weather conditions, it becomes ice , so provocation can be expected from any side, at the moment there is a lot modern equipment, that is, well, we also take this into account in belarus, meanwhile, the military is building up, the other day another echelon with military equipment of the armed forces of the russian federation arrived there, the monitoring group of the belarusian groves, with reference to the community of railway workers, reports to belarus that russia has transported at least 50 urals here just this year month, this is already the second such delivery that is known, the first shipment of 30 urals arrived at the

polonka station on december 11. on the completion of the inspection of the combat readiness of the troops, which began 6 days ago, in large-scale maneuvers near the border of ukraine , in particular, two tank companies, two motorized rifle companies of the carnation battery, a separate assault battalion, a pontoon-bridge battalion, a pontoon company of an engineering bridge-building battalion and support units were involved in the beginning on december 10, the ministers of defense of russia and belarus serhiy shoyguta viktor hryenin signed amendments to the agreement on joint provision of regional security in the military sphere on monday shoigu he arrived in minsk again on the eve of the visit of the russian delegation, alexander lukashenko denied any influence of russia on him

. эту оченькость no one except us will rule belarus and the country, in our opinion, during this meeting, the issues of further aggression against ukraine and the wider involvement of the armed forces will be worked out. of the republic of belarus to the operation against ukraine, in particular, in our opinion, and on land, the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi after the commander-in -chief assured that preparations are underway for any scenarios, the protection of the border with both russia and belarus is also a constant priority, we are preparing for all possible defense scenarios, whoever what minsk did not encourage, it will not help them either. like all other sick ideas in this war against ukraine and

ukrainians, according to the estimates of british intelligence , russian and belarusian are present in belarus at the moment, the military is not a force that can pose a serious threat to ukraine from the north, the invasion of the belarusian army into ukraine is also called unlikely, and the institute for the study of war maksym grabovskyi has sick patients pavlo holodov radio svoboda what putin and lukashenko can agree on and is a new russian offensive possible troops from the side of belarus, let's talk further, we already have valery karbalevich, a political observer of the belarusian editorial staff of radio liberty good evening good evening for vladimir putin, this is his first visit to belarus more than three years earlier, it was lukashenko who went to putin, i wonder why it is not so this time, uh, belarus is the only

ally of russia, there are simply no others. minsk, let's not say at the g20 itself, where he didn't want to go, that is, there are options, he doesn't have many external visits. this is the visit. well, it's not some kind of demonstration of gratitude and blessing in relation to lukashenko in relation to official minsk here, uh, well, here, uh, for the new year, bring gifts. the government delegation is big , uh, and uh . minister of foreign affairs lavrov, that is, defense issues, foreign policy issues

, and probably, first of all, the war in ukraine will be discussed, but i want to draw your attention to the fact that in all the public speeches that have already been made, nothing is said about ukraine at all at all, nothing is said about the war, and the commodity producers talk about cooperation in the field of atomic energy and cooperation in space, as if there is no bloody war nearby, in which both these states participate , that is, well, some kind of parallel world is created by the leaders техой переговоров and could this mean that uh, actually, they are agreeing on something and will leave it a-but they won't say it publicly from the attention of the press. and what can be evidenced by the fact that the minister of defense and his scumbags met for the day before you think that the minister of defense has

a lot of things, a lot of things, a lot of issues that need to be solved on the territory of belarus, the russian army is located on the training grounds, it is used, belarusian airfields, belarusian transport, belarusian hospitals, and the most important thing is that there is no legal basis for the presence of russian troops on the territory of belarus. there are no documents , er, how would they regulate this presence , er, it is not clear at all. will be discussed during the negotiations between the two defense ministers. and i wonder if it could be that putin can pressure lukashenka to use the armed forces of belarus for a ground offensive of a new

offensive, which can probably happen in the winter , the process in particular, analysts say yes and ukrainian officials, what do you think, well , this issue has been discussed for as long as the war has been going on, and everyone thinks and many assure that the belarusian armed forces will enter this war fully, but so far this is not happening and i think that rather not than yes. for two reasons, the first reason is that the belarusian society is negative in relation to the fact that the belarusian military took part in this war, therefore, the question of the belarusian society is very divided, there is practically a concentric circle and opponents of lukashenko , historians of lukashenko and representatives of the state apparatus and power structures would not want belarus to participate in this war for

belarusians - this is a foreign war and this is the fundamental difference between the belarusian society and the russian one, which supports the war bigotry. and lukashenko can't understand this situation, he can't not know such sentiments. and therefore, the participation of the belarusian military is a certain risk , a risk to get political destabilization, and the second reason . dividends, some economic, political benefits, and so on , and the whole other thing is to participate in the war. it is necessary to slowly distance yourself, but probably lukashenko would like to do this, but he

cannot already jump out of the rut into which mr. karbalevich fell, but they really correctly said that the possible involvement of the armed forces of belarus is being discussed in the media , and how long will the full-scale russia's invasion of ukraine, however, can this situation change or what can happen that lukashenko, despite the risks that exist for his political existence, still went for it , so it is possible that some kind of blackmail can work with on putin's side as you can imagine, i still have a hard time imagining how lukashenko can be persuaded to start a war because war is a risk incommensurable with all other blackmail risks against eh. in addition, i fully accept that lukashenko puts forward eh putin

such an argument that eh- the participation of belarus in the war may lead to a repetition of the events of the 20th year, to mass protests, and the political crisis will become the main ally of putin. this is probably not what putin wants. mr. korablevych, in the end, do you think new protests are possible in belarus? i would say yes. there are two dimensions. the first is whether russia will be able to help suppress these protests . are these protests still possible? well, from the point of view that if belarus is involved in the war, will they take to the streets against it? well, you will ask questions that no one

can answer today. - it's difficult очень говорит well, i want to draw your attention to the fact that today in belarus there is a process of evolution of an authoritarian regime into a totalitarian one, that is, political terror in belarus. and in belarus, people are arrested not even for political activity, but simply for dissent, for the very fact of commenting on a negative attitude to the authorities. on social networks or even like, i am telling you that there are enough people in belarus who in some way demonstrate their support for ukraine, there they wear a badge with a ukrainian logo. that is why in such conditions ожидат е-е процессов очень солнечные тем более что презентация массовые играции е-е е-е наиболе электронных процессиональных из эхалай из белоруссия. thank you very much. we continue to follow

the situation in belarus. we were contacted by valery karbalevich, a political columnist of the belarusian editorial office of radio svoboda the european union agreed on a limit on gas prices, which increased significantly after the russian invasion of ukraine, the limit is set at the level of 180 euros per megawatt-hour, writes the bloomberg agency, referring to its sources and this put an end to the months-long dispute in the eu, but is it worth interfering in the situation on the market after the meeting of the energy ministers of the eu member states, our european correspondent zoryana stepanenko followed today, we will ask her for details. hello. how can today's agreement be considered a breakthrough and how did it succeed to achieve and you know sasha, i think that you and i will not exaggerate at all if we call this agreement a breakthrough, since for many months starting from the spring and here we argued whether to implement it the ceiling price for gas and also around it.

what exactly should this ceiling be? this measure, or rather its draft, its project appeared on the table when the prices for blue fuel in the european union sharply climbed due to the fact that russia was also sharply reducing supplies here and the price ceiling was actually needed to curb this rise in prices, to bring it under control, well, that is, they would simply refuse to buy gas here, the price of which would exceed the limit that would be agreed upon in the european union. it is difficult because most of the eu countries were staunch supporters of such a measure in such a reaction, but there was also another camp that united in particular germany, austria , and the netherlands, and they took a much more cautious position, trying not to harm and fearing that gas sellers might find themselves other sales markets are negotiable today
