tips it can save you on the approaches to bakhmut and soledar organized the steps necessary to strengthen our defense, in particular, the transfer of additional units and increased fire on the occupiers. president volodymyr zelenskyi spoke about this . heavy fighting continues in luhansk and donetsk regions. is holding on, even though there is still more to destroy and it is very difficult to find such a piece of land near these two cities on which the occupier did not give his life for the crazy ideas of the masters of the russian regime is one of the bloodiest places on the front. putin gave the order for a full-scale

invasion of ukraine after imagining himself as a tsar, he believed that the russian army would be met with fear and would not oppose the occupation, the adviser to the head of the president's office told the process mykhailo podolyak, in an exclusive interview on the tv channel, advised putin that he had to prepare psychologically for the fact that he would be a brilliant commander, a tsar, whom no one would reproach for the fact that he came to kill people en masse, and when he believed it, when he saw the very fearful policy of the european union, let's say the neutral, even-tempered position of the united states, he said, oh well, let's go, everything's fine, there won't be any problems with us, but why erdoğan to become a mediator between ukraine and russia to establish peace, will turkey's desire bring results on the

diplomatic front? ihor petrenko, doctor of political sciences, we congratulate you, mr. igor, i congratulate you, let's talk with you about nato and, in fact, about us, about our long journey to this organization. well, the secretary general of nato said very clearly these days that russia cannot be allowed to win in ukraine because it will not only be a tragedy for ukrainians, but a danger for other countries, we see that the understanding of this is finally complete. how do you think such statements bring our nato membership closer and when it can become a reality? on the one hand, what the west understands about ukraine's money is the loss of the west, despite the support, given the level of rhetoric, which

is, accordingly, given the level of threats posed by the russian federation, that is, not only for ukraine, but actually for eastern european countries that are directly members of nato. this understanding is and indeed it has already been established, that is why they are saying that ukraine should be supported as long as necessary, the secretary general of nato in particular notes that well, it is too early to relax yes, and all countries need others should count on the fact that the war will continue, it will continue for a certain amount of time , and therefore it is necessary to plan and calculate support for ukraine accordingly, and the question of ukraine's membership in nato is related to this, of course, i think that ukraine has really proved that it is there is that ukraine that meets, in principle, the criteria for becoming a member of the nato

. there is still no consensus that should exist among nato countries. well, that is, to support ukraine as a country that is fighting against the russian federation. it is one thing to be elected to the ranks of nato. in principle, this is what president zelenskyi says as well. well, there are objections regarding the fact that there is some level of corruption in ukraine, for example, yes, i can always give an example there, the same montenegro, for example, yes, what level of corruption do they have yes, or in romania, for example, before the war , there was a situation when fuel was stolen from diesel fuel warehouses, respectively, by the military there and so on. well, that is, there are a bunch of different such moments that speak of the fact that very often when they say about non- compliance with the criteria this is such a kind of

denial. and here the fact that ukraine meets the criteria is an indicator of the shoes that we have today with our armed forces of ukraine, that is, ukraine really starting there from 2000 there in the 15th year, and especially in 2019-20 this year and so on, and we adopted nato standards at an accelerated pace, and the standard nato itself is one of the saints, one of those handshakes that gave ukraine the opportunity to be as effective as possible in the war with the russian federation, so i think that we already in the reality of sunday. as they say, they have proved that we meet the main criteria of nato and the ukrainian army is one of the largest military forces, at least of european content. you see, the russian forces are concentrated precisely on the fortress bakhmut, whom you mentioned, and i remember such a meme is now circulating on social networks that

ah-ah why russians that's how it is, hmm, it's just how to remember the russian word agaltela yes and tupela , you can pick up many such words, they are trying to storm bakhmut, our positions are near this fortress , and fighting with the whole of nato well, probably because the headquarters of nato is located there well, that's how i am , but uh, in general, when uh, we talk about the attempts of the russians, uh, about how they use their propaganda, please tell me what this is what a story it was with this christmas truce, the institute for the study of war says that it was an attempt to discredit ukraine, but i simply cannot understand in what way, because is there any other way we could answer how it was done in the president's office, how it was done by the president of ukraine,

volodymyr zelenskyi how did all the military and all ukrainians do it? well, look , we can see. yes, the russian federation has a genre crisis. it would be better to show something back and wash away that ukraine. you remember the situation from zaporizhian hares, why are we preparing something there, then they told us that we are preparing a dirty bomb, a dirty bomb, which means that there is a lot more in our institutes, the academy of sciences, but now in their coordinate system they think that they are showing one peacekeeper. we say everything unilaterally we give an order means everything and then creating some kind of provocation, for example, or understanding that the intensity of hostilities is very high. so they will say, look, we are kind of silent here. should somehow influence our partners, which we said, here they want to sit down at the negotiating table, it's just others well, but it's full of nonsense, rubbish, because ukraine and a clear position is the answer, according to the president,

we have a clear, clear demand and an understanding that we are not needed for what they are tasks - these are international borders recognized accordingly for ukraine, then we can answer to prove the negotiations and there is support and understanding from our respective allies, even that zherdagan in the conversation with putin who said that you have in to unilaterally cease fire in order to demonstrate not just calls , but some relevant real actions. therefore, all this is nonsense and, let's say, efforts that do not have a corresponding result and from the side of the corresponding russian federation, that is, they obviously do not understand the general context and understanding that the russian federation will be formed as a fake country by itself. yes, and all its corresponding statements as they are . such a propagandistic step on the part of the

russian federation means to talk about the appropriate christmas change of the situation when on bahmut, respectively, they are advancing and constantly shelling, well, now they are, and well, and in general, yes, during all accordingly, here we can also remember new year's eve. well, and so on , so the troops, well, tell them what they were thinking about. so when, er, well, they tried to spend like this, that, and that, according to ukraine, when everyone understands everything perfectly. well, and biden says that putin is trying to find oxygen as if it were a truce, and oxygen is getting less and less, there is no way out . about the readiness to be a mediator in the negotiations between ukraine and russia and after a telephone

conversation with putin called president zelensky and suggested that, in your opinion , the role of turkey in this whole story , to what extent does it today meet the requirements that ukraine sets for itself and in particular, our peace formula proposed by the president and the implementation of all its points by

politicians who can negotiate with everyone , who will be listened to and so on, and even more so the situation of the elections that will be held in turkey, the elections will be extremely difficult, accordingly, for erdogan, this is also very important to him yes, that's why, when he, uh, they made a statement about this conversation. they calculated this , so the steps are positive, so it's true what they called with the ac, but the situation there is actually not yet resolved to the end, so in in general, the role of turkey is indeed important, but we would like it to be more antagonistic towards the russian federation . well, in the coordinate system that they currently exist in the situation, according to syria, under the control of

the russian federation, it is the space of the need for a hurricane to conduct an appropriate operation against the kurds and so on. well, all of this is a complicated ball, yes, which is not just to untangle, but on the other hand, in 2023, i think that there will be competition among negotiators and many will offer its services not only to editors, yes, eh. so there is a wise man here. well, we also have the pope . i think that i don't care too much. the new and old prime minister of israel will also want to join in. well, maybe other countries will also want to join in. show appropriate leadership in this, so we will see . perhaps in the competition, turkey will also want to take a more strict view of the russian federation, although, again, there are a lot of internal interests that dictate such a cautious position. it is not only about negotiators. necessary

remember also about those who are ready to give security guarantees well, in particular, one of the last statements of the prime minister to italy ah hm said that italy is ready to be a guarantor in certain further negotiations, in particular we will, of course, keep on the pulse everything that is happening in the world and discuss it on our broadcasts. thank you for now, mr. igor, for joining him. petrenko, doctor of political science, was in marathons. the only news is that we continue the night marathon. next, the news is brief. sumyshchyna under enemy fire only the other day, the russian army released in the cities and villages of the region, 144 projectiles were fired upon. osmanska myropolska, novoslobodska, bilopolska, and khotynska

communities were enemy assets from mortars, rocket salvo fire systems, hail and artillery barrels, four private houses were damaged, a school , a village club, and there is also a farm there. the chervono grigoriv community also got a good deal. the head of the nikopol reva, yevhen yevtushenko , said that there were no casualties at the same time in the fire that happened during the day and was not related to the enemy a woman was killed by shelling, two others are in a serious condition in the hospital well, now the experts somewhere do not find out what caused the outbreak, they have concentrated their forces and are trying to get to the borders of donetsk region. the situation in soledar is difficult, the occupiers are trying their best to capture some settlement , later the propagandists will provide information about at least some success was announced by deputy minister of defense hanna malyar, the situation in soledar is very difficult in some parts of the donetsk region.

the army, but also private painters, emphasized that for now the cities of bakhmute-solodar remain under the control of the ukrainian military. germany handed over seven high-power electric generators to kherson. they are used to provide light to low-lying objects of critical infrastructure. the head of the kherson regional military administration, yaroslav yanushevich, will talk about this. the three generators will support the water supply . of the city's sewage system, one will go to the needs of the oncology dispensary, three more are needed for the stable operation of khersonteploenergo when everywhere the light goes out they continue to fight for life every day of every day every second during the war and hospitals became fortresses of light where they heal not only the body but also the soul

through fatigue and pain they continue to protect the flame of hope their reward is our smiles and hugs their joy another saved they know this person. not everyone has a life, so they keep the light inside us. we are grateful to the doctors who continue to save people despite the darkness outside the window. thank you. i love my city, the old cozy streets, the new ones wide noisy avenues, i love the smell of coffee in the morning in a cafe near the house, i love my family, i respect my neighbors
