from the front line, especially as it relates to the kupyan district, and not all munitions are activated, and they remain there somewhere in the ground and also pose a threat, and again, cluster munitions are a separate story, so in short, a whole lecture should be held here er, the situation is urgent, the last one, timur would like to ask you about such a moment, whether it was recorded that the russian interventionists receive mines, explosive devices somewhere from their so-called allies, possibly north korea, iran, and not only personally, we do not have such information but they issued such a let's say that there is something to

think about because well, so far i do not see such examples that we have met, uh, and once foreign production of explosive objects, but we need to study it further. this issue is not so important for us in principle. other bodies are engaged in 15 the most important thing is to clean this land from all this explosive for the sake of thank you for the work of your strength in this difficult task and see you on the air timur pestryuga, the chairman of the board of the association of sappers of ukraine worked live on the espresso tv channel half to on the fourth we go further, we inform about the most important thing, today there was information that colonel-general oleksandr lapin , who was actively criticized in russia, failed at the front, could be appointed chief of the main staff of the ground forces of the russian federation, why i say could beat because piskov did not confirm or deny of this information, lapin was actively criticized in russia, in particular,

prigozhin and kadyrov because of the fact that what happened to the situation in kharkiv oblast for the russian occupiers. i think that with permission antin, the first question is for the next guest, vadym denisenko, adviser to the minister of internal affairs of ukraine, executive director of the ukrainian institute of the future. vadym, we welcome you. glory to ukraine. well , among other things, in your opinion, what can the probable return of colonel-general oleksandr lapin, who did not stand out with any bright successes in the kharkiv region, was criticized, why can he be returned to the ground forces? proven personnel and he needs to bet on those people who are close to him. strictly speaking, he is now trying to return lapin as a person who he is already in one of the closest to the season. and what

will this formation bring with it ? or operational orders, well , the newly appointed chief of the general staff, lapin, or surovikin, no. well, he is not the head of the general staff , that is, in this case, he is, or those troops, only to capture the troops, but in the hierarchy, of course, the story is above that in this case in this case, he is the commander of the entire so-called res and therefore he will give orders for 40 years, he will definitely give orders for 40 years, but this is an internal structure, the struggle is in our hands, and in principle, the more they will play with each other, the better for all of us vadim but we see how the enemy is trying to swing battles under soledar under bahmut and so on under crime in their various information solitaires how would you now assess what the enemy is doing with what purpose what

kind of swing is it wagnerites then not wagnerites solidara they have already decided that they are his took and they basically started on cases you although he definitely won't take even though he is under the control of ukraine but the russians are starting these groups that are fighting among themselves with each other er this conditional future victory is why prigozhyn at least for the first time in fact he was the first to start pumping this story that he is, actually speaking, the only father of the taking of a solider, who has been lashed out. a number of other political and military figures have immediately joined in and are beginning to weaken this bear until the skin is gone, and therefore , it is necessary to look at it from so many points of view that is, i am simply citing that it is extremely necessary to show that he has some victories and that only he fights, that is why he conducts so actively and so much let's say mr. vadim's aggressive information policy,

what could be the main interest of mr. prigozhina, this is exclusively business. they said that he can it is from this point of view to be interested in those mines that are in the bakhmut district, or maybe some positions. maybe even in the relevant institutions of the russian federation of a military nature. well, on the one hand, he definitely has a business interest. that is, we clearly we understand the countries where he went, the central african republic and the small ones, first of all, but besides that, yes, of course , artemsilts is one of the very nice fast ones that he would certainly like to apply for. but i think that his is one of one of the most important dreams of ideas is to enter the higher league of russian politics, that is, to enter and have the opportunity to influence one of the parliamentary factions and even form a partial one, so i think that the minimum task is definitely business , and the maximum task or the main task is

to enter the higher left of russian politics and to become a person who forms a political agenda in the state opinion of the russian federation, that is why, as a matter of fact, he has recently been so actively excited about myronov's sps, and that is why he so actively criticized in his time the ide eh ldper eh who wanted they wanted to invite him thanks to the entrance to reanimate the branded dbr. and actually speaking, he plays already at the present moment, first of all, in political games, that is, he took over the uniform of the late zhirynovsky, as we understand it, but the key difference from zhirynovsky that prigozhin really began to actively dip his hands in blood well, in principle , there are several people who claim to be lavruzhynovsky, this one here and partially but

much worse than all of them and it is definitely passing, that is, now the two main contenders for zhirynovsky's norms are medvedev and prikushen, but eh and i will repeat myself once again and i know for a fact that he is now in the first league and not in the top league of russian politics, and his key task now is to break into this top league, and besides everything else, don't forget that his the style of behavior of his forces of information behavior and how he presents himself in the information environment is connected with the institution of self-preservation, apart from everything else , if he stops behaving so actively and so outrageously, he is, in principle, one of them, not only from the political olympus but it is quite realistic that in some relatively short term they may disappear from er and physically therefore him. actually, his aggressive information policy includes self-defense against physical destruction, so we

agree with you. well, but in any case he has crossed a certain line and there is no turning back. how do you assess the information campaign inside russia in general, due in particular to their catastrophic defeat, or their catastrophic defeat, in particular in makiivka, but not only in makiivka ? there is a death register there. what do you think, and is it a similar tactic in general? can they somehow be tricked? well, look. we must clearly understand that makiivka played an informational role in the moral and informational right. played a much bigger role for the russians than the surrender of kherson. strictly speaking, makiivka is a small nuclear bomb that exploded in the information space of the

russian federation and at one time it usually works by accumulating, but at one time, a million russians began to understand that they are being lied to because of powerlessness, that the government is lying because there is nothing to say, it is powerless to do anything, uh, it is sending their relatives and loved ones to be slaughtered, uh, because of the stupidity and unpreparedness of their officers, and definitely this is one of the biggest information of the failures of the russian federation in recent years. well, for sure, it was possible to speak directly, but during this war it was one of the key informational failures. but it was makiivka that exploded, yes, look, information always works by accumulation, that is, in principle, what happened before that, mass death of

russians, 100 people, 150,200 people, yes, this there was, but it was related to the regular army that was cleaning someone, now, well, first of all, such a figure of 500-600 dead has never been huge in terms of numbers, and on the other hand, it is all mobilized and concentrated in one specifically located not far from moscow. it's not some anti-mansion district, it's saratov, it 's absolutely clear that it's right here, right next to it, and a plus, and i'll repeat it again, it's a very bad lie that intensified this whole effect and , in principle, it played into our hands, including a little water-tightness inside when kanakshinku made a statement the day before yesterday that what if the wozmezdie act took place exactly half an hour later, one of the most popular russian propagandists said that it was absolutely a lie, in principle, they themselves

opened the second wave of the owner’s eyes. in this case, in fact, it is a big information bomb, which, of course, in the piggy bank of negativity inside the russian federation, will give a good, uh, 10 good result, mr. vadim, and briefly, finally, the units of the resistance movement have created an extensive system in all operational directions, he announced this commander of the special operations forces of ukraine, brigadier general viktor horenko, had a short conversation with nataliya gumenyuk, spokeswoman for the south operational command, who noted that even on the crimean peninsula, the resistance movement is gaining momentum, and we already have many precedents of cooperation of the local population with the ukrainian special services and defense forces what exactly is the dynamics of the development of this cooperation? perhaps you have some data on whether people from the occupied territories of the former occupied territories are trying to get in

touch and establish some kind of relationship. will help in the future our defense forces to work in a given direction with such to me here, i think i have no right even to talk about it, therefore, unfortunately, i will not be able to answer your question here panoradnik i would like to clarify according to your opinion well, we understand that according to the plan sociology is kept secret, but for example, how many such coups would have to happen in order for certain processes to begin in the russian federation at a rather loud but so-called popular level, well, look, there is no such answer to this question and to be honest, it’s uh, i really don’t like it when our experts start talking about the fact that there will be 100,000 killed or 10,000 killed and then the russians will start banting, that is, in principle , there is no clear mathematics here, there is no

logic that two two will be four two plus two in such cases there are 10 and there is one because when we talk specifically about how many makeup artists there should be, there is no answer to this question, but if they are 100%, in principle , they will first start local socio-economic riots and then they may move to e-e acts of protest. but as we are now, we can only count on small local, first of all, socio-economic riots in certain regions . live well we have some uh good news in particular here is an amazing story actually alternated every time we learn about such stories it kind of takes pride in the skill of our defenders tactical group adam by the way, for their needs. we

also collected funds, er, and bought uavs for this particular combined tactical group, thanks to high-quality planning and management, four fighters of the special operations forces attacked the position of the russians under bakhmut, destroyed 15 enemy soldiers, this story was told to us by eh yuriy butusov, according to him, during the sweep, six russians were captured who were lucky enough to survive the entire unit, the entire unit was completely eliminated, the group carried out the operation without losses, the results of the operation were captured on video, on video well, i would like such battles became an example of the successful tactics of small groups in the modern war, and such experience was systematically implemented in the troops, butisov summarizes, the next six months will be extremely fierce in this war, the head of ukrainian military intelligence, kyrylo budanov, stated this. what does this mean, and are the russian invaders going to try to attack kyiv again ? let's watch the story

together russia is collecting people and weapons for a new offensive already in january, but more likely in the spring the ref may launch a major offensive from donbas in the east from the south or even from belarus russian troops may try to take kyiv for the second time, this statement was made by the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, valery zulzhnogo, to the british publication where austerity in mid-december shook society and reminded the fierce war is still going on, russian mobilization worked, it is not true that their problems are so serious that these people will not fight, they will be ordered by the tsar they fight and they fight they may not be so well equipped but these troops still pose a problem for us according to our estimates they have a reserve of about one and a half million people the russians are preparing about 200,000 new soldiers, i have no doubt that they will once again go to kyiv, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of

ukraine, valery zaluzhny, since then, experts have begun to assess the probability of a new offensive from different angles, the general staff reports that there are 11,000 russian troops in belarus, they are not enough for a new offensive even if lukashenko orders his soldiers to join the occupying group of russian troops deployed in the bryansk and kursk regions of belarus of the russian federation is half the size of the group that was used for the attack on kyiv in february of this year, 22 thousand against 45.5 thousand of the occupiers, and more than that, russia has removed from the territory of belarus all the stocks of ammunition for artillery systems and rocket launcher systems that were created in the interests of the armed forces of the russian federation federation on the eve of the attack on ukraine, this may mean that there will be no attack from the north just tomorrow. it is predicted, however, that

the invaders may form a strike on the group before the spring of belarus in the russians. are prepared full-scale, because to carry out this kind of action, now that our troops have completed certain defense measures, they need about 100-150,000 troops in order to complete the recruitment of troops to carry out a combat task of 100,000 or more, and it takes not more than two months to accumulate such of the number of russian troops in belarus now, according to roman, it is not observed that the russians can carry out the dawn except on the northern border to fulfill their political tasks or with the aim of receiving ukrainian troops on this the direction of the desire and preparation of the belarusian military to enter the war remains insufficient. as for the level of readiness of the belarusian army, it is considered that it is limited to being ready within 30-6 weeks on the

belarusian training grounds e-e under part of the division of the belarusian army engaged in the program of combat training have a sufficiently high level in terms of conducting defensive operations but do not have the corresponding experience and cannot be effective in attack despite these factors ukraine is considering all scenarios of military development actions, the minister of defense believes that it is now impossible to say exactly the direction of a possible new offensive of the russian federation, and whether they will involve belarusians or not. the authorities believe that the aggressor has not given up his plans to cut off the supply routes of western weapons to us. ukraine is actively preparing for defense in our country direction, a rather powerful group has been assembled, who can not only stop it, but also destroy it, there will be a lot of surprises if they decide on the territory of belarus, since february there is a constant movement of personnel

and equipment, the military is constantly imitating there training, in fact, the ministry of defense says that they check their state of readiness for all actions on the territory of an enemy country, our intelligence is watching, ukrainians must take into account the threat, even the russian troops, which directly carried out active actions, did not know until the last whether they would move or not, because the russian federation had several scenarios and this is how they usually plan and at the last moment a decision is made based on the situation you cannot relax and you cannot underestimate the enemy either ukraine , in turn, is preparing a major offensive in the spring of known to the head of intelligence kyrylo budanov, in his opinion, fiercer battles are expected in march, we will see more liberation of the territory and the task of the final defeat of the russian federation, says bohdanov, the next

six months will be the most fierce. offensive, ukraine needs a sufficient amount of military equipment and favorable weather, for example prolonged frosts, only this week it became known about the supply of light tanks to france for the armed forces and the usa is going to direct the m2 infantry fighting vehicles , the number of these means for victory is decisive. as general zaluzhny says, he needs 300 tanks, 600-700 bmps and 500 howitzers, and we are hoping for the support of our partners . valery pashko, espresso tv channel. now we are in touch valeria bik, military expert , editor of the defense-express publication valeria, we congratulate you glory to ukraine glory to the heroes i congratulate you, dear gentlemen, the presenter and i congratulate our dear tv viewers still appeared once again

the information that great britain seriously looks like it is possible to supply ukraine with british challenger two tanks for the first time, which could encourage other nato allies, in particular germany, to follow this example . sky news journalists from germany believe that we are interested in the second leopards . about challengers, the second one can already be at the next rammstein, which will be held in january. decisive in the issue of supplying ukraine with heavy weapons and of course the desire of great britain to act as a leader in this matter is very indicative eh tank challenge is the main battle tank used by great britain eh it has a unified cannon with nato shells

and is essentially it is the most protected tank ever produced in the world. it pretty much ensures the safety of the crew and, in principle, there are enough different weapons. the 120 mm rifled gun allows you to hit almost all the targets on the field. battle, and an engine with a capacity of 1100 kw, about 1200 horsepower, with an automatic transmission, can help a tank to move very quickly on a treacherous road, it can be such a very powerful machine, for the destruction of the russian invaders in ukraine, and the fact

that, in essence, even if the british will give 10 vehicles, then a tank company that can be formed on their base. it can be , let’s say, a powerful enough tool for breaking through the enemy’s defenses, respectively . how do you assess the current dynamics in the case leopards, there have already been signals from poland that they would also be ready to give something, but we see that the story has come full circle and perhaps some non-trivial approaches should be used in order to, so to speak, push the matter from its place to rammstein, it will happen to you the opinion is the same. it seems to me that in the case of you and i, we are observing the information field, they are some kind of preparatory means. of course, let's say

that because all the information is thrown away. option - this is exactly what motivates the representatives of the countries that have these tanks in service to make a decision accordingly, and it seems to me that there is a very high probability that a similar decision will be made on rammstein, what formula will be found it should be noted that in nato countries the leopard tank -2 is a very well-regarded machine. and in general, if you count these tanks, there are more than two thousand machines, in fact, you can make a definite decision, let's say, where to select tanks that, let's say, leopard 2

eastern in terms of their modernization characteristics and 10% of this amount, it can be two tank regiments of 200 leopards , they can radically change the situation on the battlefield of ukraine in favor of ukraine, and this is exactly that, let's say, an offensive fist that could allow quickly and confidently free ukrainian lands from the russian post, we are talking about 116 such tanks, the polish army can get them already this year, and poland is also increasing its military cooperation with south korea, they have now completed negotiations on the purchase about three hundred rocket launcher systems

, why is it with your colleagues? it seems to me that a few months ago, we were just talking about this, and what is poland preparing for, and do we have the opportunity, let's say, to be at such a level of cooperation with the poles that we can count on this armed assistance from them also, it should be noted that poland understands all the threats to itself because this territory, on which the country is located, was a pass through in all the conflicts, the biggest wars, especially in the 20th century, because poland is located on on the plain, this is precisely the operational space on which, let's say, these movements of the great moscow were carried out, and including all the strategies , they planned this land as one of the

main battlefields, based on the physical and geographical conditions, and they understand that the poles well, they know that no one, let's say, apart from them, will not take care of their own security anymore. this is precisely why the poles' investment in their own security is connected. it can respond to this rearmament ukraine the thing is that, at the moment, poland also has the largest fleet of leopard 2 tanks, and in fact, the reason is that there is not such a large tank as a tank zoo. well, it is possible to predict that these polish leopard tanks may eventually end up in ukraine, while, for example, poland

unified the fleet of captains, using primarily american and korean abrams tanks, which this country ordered in very large quantities precisely to ensure its own security against the threat of a russian invasion mr. valery a what are the 14 vampar missile systems, so american, which are supposed to be purchased and, as it were, transferred to our benefit. oh, this is a very effective tool that can ensure, let's say, the fight against low -flying, small-sized targets on the battlefield. a missile launcher that uses advanced e-e such anti-aircraft missiles and e-e wgs that they can reliably

detect this complex e-e small-sized targets and destroy them this complex is equipped with such an advanced sensor e guidance waxes which able to detect e-e targets in the optical range and also to guide these missiles e-e american advance observer weapon system and-e which are specifically sharpened for similar targets well and here it is very good that it will be a kind of mobile complexes of 14 of these e launchers e -e from the guidance and surveillance system will be installed on e-e pickups and all this will be delivered to ukraine, in fact

, the matter e-e will be borne by the united states, and such complexes can significantly strengthen the e-e air defense of the ground forces, including, say they can be effective, first of all, these modern threats on the battlefield that we have. and what, first of all, are these iranian armed neighbors who terrorize ukrainian cities, as well as russian reconnaissance drones, which once again aim weapons at the objects of the ukrainian infrastructure. well let's hope that the vampires will arrive as soon as possible. valery ryabykh, an editor from defense express, was in touch with us. i can already hear it by the sound . anna is ready for the information release
