[000:00:00;00] hmm, it's so scary, but when you've already taken this step, for example, on the podium of the congress, then the fear disappears because you know that you'll say what you want to say, and it's easy for me in this regard. with the words i wanted to say, it was not difficult for me to do it. i thought to you now that you are obviously the only presidential couple in the world so far who spoke in congress. i think that

the first lady did not speak at all at the congress. well, we had to use this precedent. this is a chance. i am sure that we did not miss it. another speech at the congress. names you among a hundred non-influential women of the world bbc also names you among a hundred less influential women and those who are the most inspiring and i think there will be all the ratings there will be many more you feel like one of of the most influential women in the world, i will honestly say that it is nice that you are recognized, it means that your activity is noticed, and i hope that not only for the quantity, but also for the quality , because there were indeed many performances, but i tried to make them high-quality. i don't even feel influenced by what

- and because i'm not um , i don't have a goal to become more influential , you have to be able to influence, it's a huge responsibility when i wanted to be the president, for example. i don't have such ambitions. i don't have any plans, that's why it's just nice to me that it doesn't go unnoticed, and it's even nicer. it's in the sense that i always represent ukraine, and when ukraine is mentioned in such ratings, the most important thing for me is that we have to occupy our places in the world in all spheres, we have been overlooked for too long. well, we, too, have become one of the most influential countries. obviously, such things influence each other. i would never have been in this ranking if ukraine had not been

one of the most influential countries in the world. well, let it be next year and in all the following years, our influence will not decrease, we must maintain and increase this level. i am sure that it is desna for us, but without war , without war . to a warm circle of close friends and already a victorious new year. i think this is the dream of everyone in ukraine now. thank you. thank you very much. this was a conversation with the first lady of ukraine, mrs. olena

more effective, the ukrainian anti-aircraft defense can become the most powerful in europe, it will be a guarantee of security not only for our state, but for the entire continent , discussed even after the bid at a separate meeting of the hundred energy companies, what are we preparing for ? this is definitely one of the most important tasks for the next year , i have no doubt that we will fulfill it today , i spoke with the prime minister of greece , summarized the year, thanked greece for the support of our state, agreed for the next year as we can make cooperation even more meaningful, held a meeting with our international representatives, there are many issues. but the main thing is that the measures we are preparing to strengthen ukraine already in january and february , ukraine will retain the achieved leadership in

foreign policy and will be even more active - this is 100%. and one more thing. today, for the first time, the ceremony of awarding our volunteers with a golden heart was held. it is fair and honest at the end of the year to honor those who help our defense throughout the year, help people and our entire state. thank you to everyone who fights for our state. who helps ukrainians who works for ukraine and our future glory to all our people glory to ukraine the second army of the world is now just the second army in ukraine in 10 months of war the losses of the kremlin army reached 105,000 people the armed forces of ukraine were able to stop the onslaught of russian troops on the approaches to kyiv held the defense in sumy and chernihiv, and their counteroffensive in kharkiv and kherson regions is admired by the entire civilized world, a world

that doubted at the beginning of the large-scale invasion that ukraine was under pressure from the kremlin, now does not stop helping the armed forces of ukraine according to rough estimates, one-third of our arsenal now consists of nato weapons, the development of our own weapons continues, and we were able to launch even the production of our own shells . so how did our defenders overcome this long road and what helped turn the situation around at the front ? these shots from gostomel are definitely russian. they flew around the world. russian k-52 helicopters were so proud of putin. propaganda with elite paratroopers storming the airfield on the outskirts of kyiv and suddenly the alligators started to burn in

the ukrainian sky . 52 were considered the elite of putin's army, which is practically impossible to destroy. at that time , the legendary ghost of kyiv appears in the sky above the capital, which destroys dozens of enemy planes , the enemy began to suffer significant losses in in the air we saw air battles against air battles that ended with the russians losing 7-8-10 and that 12 planes at once. well, it was really a hellish sky , and russian planes are more modern than ukrainian ones at the beginning, and individual skill and motivation are more important than the class of the plane.

the legendary bairaktars became a terror for the occupiers, the enemy convoys that planned to reach kyiv in three days and parade along khreshchatyk gorillas from the powerful blows of this turkish uav nothing could hide from the devastating eye of the bairaktar bers were extremely useful when they were advancing in columns and we saw this video that was published in particular and when we the rector destroyed tanks and ammunition and means of anti-aircraft defense that were on the march the loudest slap russian anti-aircraft horses hit the airfield in russian engels at least two destroyed bombers -95ms experts are confident that they could strike an object more than 600 km from the front line with a ukrainian-made drone .

the development of ukroboronprom we are currently in the final stages of developing an unmanned aerial vehicle that can fly into enemies at a distance of 1,000-1,200 km and carry an explosive substance of up to 75 kg. -resolved and the question arose again , where is the glorious russian anti-aircraft defense, mom l'mam, it is necessary to approve from here, and by the way, russia also removed more aircraft from crimea as a result of these strikes, they were forced to remove aircraft our soldiers have greatly damaged the reputation of the black sea fleet cruiser moscow the flagship of putin's flotilla went to the bottom, and also from a ukrainian missile, this was the first combat use of neptunes, i would compare the explosions in crimea and the explosions of the hungarians in ryazan, i would compare this to the loss of the flagship of the black sea

fleet, the cruiser moscow er, this is another, it was one after another, er, image defeats of the russian federation, which, by the way, had military consequences, and the kerch bridge suddenly fell on saturday in the morning, something exploded there, but the bridge was out of order for a long time, enough corners were cut off, but the liberation of snake island generally took place according to the plot of hollywood action films, here the occupiers from the bohdane librarian to the russian occupiers on the island remembered the changes and the fire until the end of their short lives how are the ukrainian peonies flourishing , in addition to this , the allies helped us significantly with artillery, now our harmash are hitting the enemy with polish crabs, german panzer howitzers, french caesars and american

m-77 guns, but the legendary hammers are pointing terror for every occupier, this russian is more accurate than the soviet ones. hail and tornadoes are more deadly. as a result, the delivery of these systems from the usa had a drastic effect on the situation at the front . this is what the command post of the invaders looks like after meeting with its missiles . our soldiers were able to shock the russians and the world with a brilliant counteroffensive in the kharkiv region and the kherson oblast , both the general staff and the direct executors of the plan worked brilliantly on the battlefield as a result . one of the most important victories of the autumn was the liberation of kherson, the improvement of the ukrainian of the army continues, and now nato countries are increasing their anti-aircraft defense supplies to us males and complexes, and it is growing, waiting for

the american patriot system, which definitely has no analogues in the world and which will easily shoot down ballistic missiles, and our defense enterprises have finally started to manufacture their own shells, although so far only for soviet hummingbirds and projectiles have been arriving at our servicemen for several months only for the increased production of the necessary scarce projectiles so that, as they say, always be able to to raise a projectile with our artilleryman and it is worth remembering the main thing behind every gun in every tank behind every control panel of a drone, our soldiers are standing across the street , it is the ukrainian defenders and defenders with the help of these weapons and their courage that liberate our land from the russian occupier and their brilliant victories will be included in new textbooks on the military affairs of his

. good evening. greetings, oksana donetsk region has no respite from enemy shelling during the day, the enemy launched more than three dozen attacks in the region, at least seven settlements along the front line were under enemy fire, but the army men who are currently defending the hottest direction of bakhmutsky say that now the enemy here has reduced the number of artillery fire mainly from artillery only covers the work of the assault units of wagner's private mercenaries , such trends are said by our defenders to be positive, because it may indicate that the enemy has difficulties with weapons or qualified personnel. and this helps to achieve parity with the pro-athlete there. where is he currently throwing all his forces, let's hear what our military has to say about it. perhaps our aid is already coming from countries that help us, and they may be running out of resources there, very good if

we have reached the party a little more and maybe it will already be in our favor, god willing, but having reduced the number of artillery fire on ukrainian military positions, the russians began to launch more active missile strikes on rear cities, for the third day in a row they are hitting with rockets on kostyantynivka, but you know what is really impressive even in such difficult conditions in donetsk region, roads are currently being repaired, repair crews are now trying to restore the most important areas with difficulty, or it was possible to quickly and safely evacuate the civilian population, take out the wounded and quickly deliver weapons and provisions to the fighters on the front lines, we cut bad coating to install a new coating every worker contributes makes a very big contribution to defeat the aggressor

completion in autodora counted first of the full-scale invasion of russia, the occupying forces destroyed more than 420 km of highways, and this is only in donetsk region, during all this time traffic was restored only on a little more than 10% of these roads. this is the news i have as of this moment, oksana. thank you kostya, this was konstantin melnikov with the latest news from the border line in the donetsk region, in 10 months a full-scale war russian president vladimir putin repeatedly changed his rhetoric, then he allegedly repeated the mantra that everything is going according to plan, then began to threaten with nuclear weapons, when a quick and easy victory did not come, he began to accuse russia of fighting a collective action , distortions, manipulations and lies became common during putin's speeches about ukraine. how his rhetoric changed and how he went from promises to preserve peace to open war, which is still called a special operation in russia, see in

our story, i plan to make a decision to carry out a special military operation, we will strive for chest lethality and de-sanitization of ukraine, and the ukrainians woke up to the sounds of explosions and the world shuddered at the new reality in the 21st century, russia launched a war against ukraine even a year ago putin, who had already annexed crimea and russian troops had been in donbas for 7 years already, during the parade on may 9 cynically appealed to the second world war, the war brought so many unbearable tests of grief and tears that it is impossible to forget and there is no forgiveness and justification for those who again plan an aggressive plan in 2018 on a direct line to the question of whether the third world is possible - vladimir putin categorically declared world politics

not a local war and even quoted the words from the address of the famous scientist albert einstein to the american president truman about the threat of nuclear war in my opinion where he said that i don't know by what means will the third world war be introduced, but the fourth will be introduced with the help of me and the third world war may end up being the end of today's civilization , this is the understanding that should deter us from extreme and extremely dangerous for modern civilization actions in the international arena, including nuclear weapons and he said everything for the sake of protecting russia , although it was the russian military that invaded ukraine in the second election, except for the protection of citizens.
