congressmen, actually, a meeting with joseph biden, and, of course, an agreement on further cooperation and a significant package of assistance with us. issues of foreign policy and inter- parliamentary cooperation, we congratulate you , mr. oleksandr. good evening, we are also with us, hanna shelest, director of security programs of the ukrainian foreign policy council, prism, anna, we congratulate you glory to ukraine, we are glory good day, the washington post newspaper wrote an article accordingly, indicating the so-called three possible scenarios for stopping the war as a result of the negotiation processes, we understand that two of them are unacceptable, but in any case they appear, that is, they lie on the so-called diplomatic table, so from our side, well, at least our the higher military and political leadership assured that there

will clearly be no attempts to trade in our territories, mrs. hanna. how do you assess the appearance of the corresponding article in general, and accordingly, it did not just appear out of thin air, it appeared and president macron's statement is so in his interview where he spoke about the lack of adequate prospects for our entry into nato, first of all, of course, we understand that these scenarios are, at the very least, false; the questions that we , even experts, will constantly receive during meetings with foreign countries, where exactly ukraine sees its victory and whether ukraine is ready to return only to the situation of at least february, and these are not new questions in this regard case, we understand that there are individual politicians in various countries, we have heard this in europe, in the united states, they constantly appear , why right now, i think that it is more likely just for a visit, the topic was activated again, and

this article came out, and the statements of president macron regarding the guarantee of security well is also absolutely not new, we know that he has repeatedly spoken about similar issues and he is one of those who do not yet take the same tough position as, for example, the leaders of the united states or britain or even the latest statements of germany have become much tougher than france , which is still trying to act as a mediator, well, according to the network. how do you see the appearance of this article and how do you evaluate the statement from our ally , france, in the person of its president macron, about such scenarios and there may be a lot, that is, but it does not matter at all because there can and should be only one correct scenario, and this is a scenario whose framework is very clearly defined by the principles of international law and our constitution. everything is very simple here

it is necessary to do several important things, which are also mentioned in the peace plan of president zelenskyi, first of all, it is the complete restoration of the territorial integrity of ukraine in accordance with the principle of territorial integrity of international law, that is, the entire territory of ukraine, including crimea, must be liberated, and secondly , the grezer state must be punished and not rewarded by some kind of concessions or guarantees and so on. this is complete nonsense, it is a complete delusion and it contradicts international law. the aggressor must be punished and must bear the full international legal penalty . the responsibility of all war criminals, russian war criminals and all those who have committed crimes, acts of genocide, crimes against humanity. they must be brought to justice under international law and criminal responsibility, and finally, russia as an aggressor state that caused a huge

, it must compensate for all this and pay reparations this is the only correct legal scenario that should and should be implemented. foreign policy, and there is nothing surprising here , unfortunately, this was such a constant position of france, which tried to play off or posit itself as your native bridge between the actions of russia and macron continues to play these games, and it seems to me that, unfortunately, compared to in germany, where there have already been such, well, you could say a tectonic foreign policy court. they got rid of almost completely got rid of illusions about russia, such illusions still remain in france and it is only a matter of time when

president macron france will take a clear position regarding putin's terrorist regime is so extremely comprehensive, on the other hand, we understand that putin is also preparing for a new , possibly large-scale phase of his own, well, at least taking into account the implementation of their mobilization plan ms. hanna, what should we expect from putin in the current situation, in particular after the visit of president zelensky to as far as we understand, joseph biden assured joseph biden of increasing support. but putin is still not following his line and is driving his population in accordance with the military commissars. first of all, the main conclusion we could draw over the last few years is that mr. putin is very unpredictable and illogical, that is, very often. when we draw certain scenarios and understand that from the point of view of

logic, it is there . would do so-so-so, but in fact it works absolutely differently and here a certain let’s say this psychological state affects him much more than what would be better for the russian federation itself, therefore in ukraine it is always worth preparing unfortunately, for the worst-case scenario, we are better it will be nice surprised by another gesture of goodwill rather than being completely unprepared and we perfectly understand that now there is a desire to destabilize the situation and in the north again here we can separately say whether they have the capacity or not, are they preparing or not, but the fact that they will play with iron and muscles somewhere there on the territory of belarus so that ukraine cannot fully concentrate only in the east and south, this is 100%, and these visits to minsk and the transfer of troops, they speak very clearly about this because such in this way, not only ukraine but also

our allies can be played. and who is closer to the border with belarus, so at the moment it is profitable for moscow and these processes will continue 100%, we can expect calls from moscow regarding possible negotiations or at least statements that they are ready for negotiations, because we understand that russia is much worse prepared for winter than ukraine, they need some time to regroup , prepare the mobilized and a for what, in principle, well, let's say to tighten up weapons, which are now in limited quantities a for this we need time, this time, which they have , unfortunately, we don't have much of it, and that's why these calls will play against ukraine, why against ukraine ? well, let's be honest, and many people , like president macron, would like to have us all sit down tomorrow table of negotiations and quickly agreed peacefully, accordingly, as soon as a statement is heard from moscow that they

are ready for such negotiations, how will everyone perceive this and how will russian propaganda in europe promote it, that russia is peaceful, it wants to sit down at the table negotiations, and ukraine is ready to fight, so we should prepare for all these, including hybrid methods, for the next few months. well, that is, of course, we are talking about heavy armored vehicles, the story is not new for many months. so, we regularly turn to our allies for the kingdom of defense, so to speak, and they supply us with certain tanks resources but mostly it was about soviet equipment that was, so to speak , modernized well, although we also received powerful

self-propelled artillery installations from poland, in particular, we are talking about the same crabs, but here is the question, mr. oleksandr. what do you think and are there prospects for receiving from our allies that what we need, we understand that there is a case that we absolutely need, but rather ambiguous signals came from the kremlin that were addressed to certain ears in brussels and washington not to do this well, because more than 300 days of a full-scale russian invasion of us, the destruction of our civil infrastructure, that is, public arguments for which our allies would not be ashamed, they do not have a history of supplying us with heavy armored vehicles. well, i see that this is changing, let's remember what happened in the beginning full-scale aggression , full-scale invasion, that is, at first , i remember very well how the germans said that they

could supply 5,000 helmets and a military hospital, that's all, but you see how the situation changes and, uh, really, at first we they mainly tried to give only soviet-style weapons. but now the situation is radically changing. i would say that there has even been such a turning point in this history, and the more we will receive modern weapons and the fact that we will soon be provided with the patriot system, this is already such a beginning and evidence of the new situation. well, you heard the press - during the press conference , president biden said what is the problem , the problem is that the united states is ready to provide a modern long-range long-range artillery, for example, and all that we need, but they have to convince the european europeans of some european partners , partners who are afraid, as they say, of such

a certain escalation even there of a nuclear war or something, that is, in essence, they are repeating russian narratives. but the fact is that washington is here shows such a certain caution in the sense that he is afraid of a little split in uh such a european community among european countries, that is, they pay attention to it, but the situation is changing, it will change i am sure that in the new year we will receive everything we need in order to completely liberate our entire territory. well, here i will even quote a quote from joseph biden if we give ukraine weapons that would be fundamentally different from what is already being transferred there in the long run, this could lead to the split of nato, the european union, and the world in general , and in principle, what mr. oleksandr just said is very clearly confirmed by these

few days after zelensky's visit to the states, when we realized that a patriot is already the story is decided for us, the bundestag turns to scholz and says, maybe we will transfer it. we have a modification of pac-2, not as cool as pact-3, but it is still effective for us to write it off in a few years, and for ukraine, what can ms. hanna agree to, in your opinion? this is a kind of psychological, diplomatic, and defense line passed, yes, in the coalition of our partners, please, well, the line will be passed only when these weapons are on the territory of ukraine, because it is special with germany. we saw when the promises were made, but then it took a few more months various advocacy activities so that these weapons are actually in ukraine, but as for germany, the offshol has stated many times that they will be ready to provide certain types of weapons for ukraine only if it is a

collective decision within nato or the agreement of all allies so that they are not alone . it does the same with petre, this is just such a case possible because they have and let's remember that about a month ago there was a decision that they would hand it over to poland, but after a-a-a rocket fell on the territory to poland, the poles said no, let's go, it will stand better, this system in ukraine, we are ready, as it were, to give it away, but then it will be protection for both ukraine and poland, the germans refused because they said that they are not ready yet, only within the framework of nato - it is not if it is not german weapons and so on. now we have the decision of the united states, it was adopted then we did not know about it and i think that now the dialogue in berlin is completely different because they cannot say that they are alone or that someone does not support it because the country itself is the producer of these weapons is being transferred to ukraine, and i think that then this may not be just a political call

. and now let's go to the level of very specific negotiations. so, accordingly, i have a question for mr. merezhka . what should we do? president zelensky very clearly voiced our line, so to speak, our framework proposal. yes, but on the other hand, we understand that there are, so to speak, various diplomatic initiatives. it seems that the most successful at the tactical level was the president of turkey , erdoğan, that is, in small steps, so to speak, but he achieved what was beneficial to us, ukraine was beneficial to turkey, yes, and accordingly, even putin. i think he managed to cut his bonuses with the grain of the deal, and we understand that relate to other additional cases. what do you think? how will we now

manage to advance the agenda, taking into account the fact that some of our allies, as president biden admitted, are not ready to help us so much because it can be attention to split the euro-atlantic community this is a fantastic message from the president of the united states, who is probably the most informed person in the world, that is, there are people who can split within nato, that is, it is about the leaders of these or other states, and it probably does not only apply to hungary, but definitely, there are several ways and we are following these paths, first of all, this is what the president proposed, this is a very clear peace plan, which consists of 10 points of 10 steps, and the president proposed holding a corresponding summit, you can say for yourself devoted to security issues, the issue of peace
