without any officials, this question is raised. we remember that this 100 million dollars for the training of pilots has been deposited somewhere and has not yet been used . i still hope that there should still be changes this year, because maybe at the beginning of the year we see such an extremely fast dynamics, we will receive samples of weapons that were not even mentioned before, first of all, we are talking about uh, bmp and in the future about tanks, that is, the world of europe usa sees that the actual equipment is now needed more and in quantity, given that the time period for preparing for offensive operations on the ukrainian side is not so long, and it is still necessary to unite and act faster, start already now, yes thank you very much serhii e sgorets, military expert and director difransky express company was with us. but now we have a moment of silence to honor

to the 406th separate artillery brigade named after general oleksiy almazov, join the gathering, let's get closer to victory together, glory to ukraine. good morning, we continue our marathon espresso andriy saichuk and les vokruk, we work for you and we continue to talk with our guests, now let's talk a little about the fact that the russians are taking ukrainians out of the occupied territories and taking them prisoner. well, of course , we continue to monitor the situation all the time comrades, if there is something important and interesting that needs to be said, then we will definitely say it, we keep our hand on the remote control there . as you know , the city battles are very bloody, in fact, outside the city, a lot of wagnerites have caught up and the battles are going

very, very hard the occupiers are suffering very heavy losses, well, only 10 tanks were burned there in just one night, that is, imagine what is happening there, well, very serious hostilities are taking place, and there will be some information , olga skrypnyk, the head of the board of the crimean human rights group, is with us on connection and we will actually talk with mrs. olga, good morning to you about the fact that the russians are taking ukrainians to the crimea who are abducting zaporizhzhia in the kherson region, in particular, why are they doing this? good morning, yes, this trend really began when the russian army occupied the regions in the south of ukraine, for example, we are talking about zaporizhia oblast and kherson oblast, people were also deported from the city of kherson, this basically started at least as early as may, people

were detained in these regions and then brought to crimea, and some of them were accused published criminal cases were opened, and some are still being held without any charges simply as absentees. moreover, recently, for example, somewhere at the end of the year, maybe earlier they opened a special additional season before that in simferopol there was only one season number one , people were being transported here. but after that they discovered another one pre-trial detention center at the address of the colony in simferopol, and now we have 20, and this is just the second season number two, there are people who are being taken out of the newly occupied territories among there are very different people among them, starting with activists and ending with volunteers and those people who chose to participate in the combat zone in the anti-terrorist operation , their relatives and so on. now we know about several hundred wild people who get there because at least in the second

season 110 people are being held and there are still people who are being held in the first season, but it is difficult to say the final figure because russia in principle refuses to even recognize some people, such as serhii, whose gifs were also stolen in the spring, and the fsb agrees with the fact that a person is received in of them, but does not admit that he is in the simferopol pre-trial detention center, so it is difficult to tell them definitively, but we are talking about at least two hundred people, and most of them are already beginning to be deported from crimea to the russian federation, apparently in order to continue the court hearings in their cases, they are motivated by the fact that it seems that the so-called formal investigation has been completed, and now, since it is a terrorist article, people are being taken, for example, to rostov, where they are to be tried by the rostov court, and in what conditions are these people received, as far as we know we know the language, it is terrible, especially in the second season, because it is completely under the control of the fsb

, that is, it is outside the zone of even russian formal procedures, uh, there are terrible conditions, but what is more important is that these people are all victims, that is, they were first tortured as they were detained in the newly occupied in the territories of, for example, the zaporizhzhia or kherson regions, they were usually tortured there by russian soldiers or soldiers. after that, they were transported to the crimea, where they were already tortured by russian fsb agents . as far as we know, people are not provided with any medical care, perhaps some of these people are not recognized by the russian federation, they simply do not want to recognize because there are traces of brutal torture and russia wants to hide it, therefore the conditions are terrible there, in principle, there is no normal food, but the worst thing is - it is the fact that there is no medical aid there, for the most part it is not provided to anyone, people somehow come across their own sufferings, and it is almost impossible

to transfer them to the majority, because russia does not recognize them, therefore, in principle, the conditions there are very difficult and what kind of legal aid do these people receive or are they deprived of it as regards people against whom a criminal case has been opened. usually it is either a terrorist article and they are accused of an act of international terrorist terrorism, for example, they do with volunteers who were expelled from the kherson or zaporizhzhia regions or they open an article for so the so-called illegal armed formation, many such people are precisely among them the crimean tatars, who are accused of participating in the crimean tatar battalion named chili podchikha, this is the most such widespread articles, if the criminal case is so open, then there is at least a formal opportunity for a lawyer to visit these people and, well, try to somehow protect their interests during the so-called investigation.

yes, it is a violation of the client's rights, but unfortunately , there is no legal system there, nor is there a right to a fair trial, and there is another category of people that i talked about with whom i can even open cases, that is, they formally, they do not have any status at all, and according to them, even a lawyer cannot pass, because it turns out that they do not have a criminal case. somehow defended dmytro lubinets , our boatswain, er, met with his moskal- moskalpova, the human rights commissioner of the russian federation, tetyana moskalkova , actually wrote that he spent the night of negotiations and do you think it can somehow help these people who are now in the pre-trial detention center and whether it can help other people and children who suffer

from russian aggression from abduction, e. she always turned a blind eye to violations of human rights. moreover, she was in a pre-trial detention center before the full-scale invasion. that is why she ignored all politically motivated cases. that in general we have the possibility of such negotiations as ukraine and russia, where looking at the current situation that is currently developing, that russia is still going to negotiations, moreover, we know about hundreds of hundreds of our people who have returned home and among them how military personnel are civil, this gives a chance that the negotiations will continue and people will return home. we see that ukraine is making every effort, that now the moskolkollo is even public, let's

say yes to the world, how is the negotiator on these issues for me anyway it's a good signal it the possibility of returning civilians as well. in fact, we previously met with our office or with you, dmytro, and talked about whether it is possible to include crimean hostages as well, both those who were taken out of the kherson and zaporizhzhia regions and those who are sitting there crimeans are citizens of ukraine. we see that there is still a full -scale invasion, that negotiations are going on. moskalkova is not turning away from those negotiations. therefore , for me, this is a good signal that we will be able to continue negotiations and include people in particular, those about whom we spoke today from zaporizhzhia, kherson oblasts are added to these lists, therefore it is very important that relatives contact the human rights defenders of ukraine, the office manager, so that all these names of people who were kidnapped from the occupied territories are not killed, so that they are known, contact the law enforcement agencies, the ombudsman, the human rights defenders

organizations that it was known about your relatives that they were abducted from russia. olga. are you contacting or helping russian human rights defenders in any way? do they have any opportunity to work in russia? in fact, a totalitarian regime, and such as they can also be persecuted in a large-scale invasion . including children whose children were abducted from the occupied territories, but their russian colleagues' opportunities were very limited, most of them left altogether, the other part is afraid, in principle, to touch the issue is related to the war in ukraine well, in principle, in particular, in our there are practically no cooperation organizations now, the only thing is that there are some contacts with

russian lawyers who are trying to search for our prisoners of war or civilians in pre-trial detention centers in the colonies, etc. i am grateful to them for this work. yes, the line of work and in the crimea, in particular, we do not have such cooperation with russian human rights defenders . if we talk about the crimean tatars and, in particular, about the fate of nariman-dzholal, is there any such separate activity in this direction, or can he also be on the list for example, people who could be exchanged for russian prisoners. in my opinion, he should definitely be on these lists, and i know that our state bodies are also working on this, and there are separate negotiations with various countries that could, let's say, put pressure on the russian federation yes, there were also meetings with various international bodies of peter to europe, the ionian institutions, as well as narimat-zhelal, and

all the crimean tatars who are accused of illegally participating in kizbudts are also more than 70 people. they are also in all the lists of human rights defenders, these lists are also in the office and in the ministry of foreign affairs, and in principle, it is constantly emphasized that the problem here is purely political, because russia refuses to talk about crimea as ukrainian territory, but even more so, how do we we see, we talked before this yes, that there are negotiations. that 's why, in my opinion, there is a chance that these people will also be possible. not now, but at some other stage, it is really possible to exchange them , because russia is going to these negotiations anyway, and there is a plus seriously give a sanction economic levers. now we know that, in principle, russian energy carriers are being refused. and this gives us the opportunity that this can also be pressure on russia to release all political prisoners, including the narimana sources. no, olga. are you

a crimean herself? do you have any information about what life in crimea looks like now? life in crimea, in principle, continues primarily in anticipation of the armed forces . many crimeans who have such views about ukraine that it will not be soon after all, the events that unfolded very quickly after the full scale of the invasion, they just caused such a serious and even noticeable support from the crimeans of the armed forces of the armed forces, you can see the permanent inscriptions thank you to the armed forces, we are waiting for the armed forces of the armed forces, glory to the armed forces of the armed forces and so on. that is, this just shows that the russians spread propaganda there. but there are many people who understand what is happening and support ukraine, and they are waiting for it more in addition, there are their own movements, let's say, like the yellow ribbon, yes, that is, let's say underground movements

in support of ukraine, and there are also many cases where crimeans are persecuted for expressing public support for ukraine, and here it even reaches the point of absurdity that people the administrative authorities punish with fines, for example , even for singing ukrainian e-e songs, such as chervona kalyna or, for example, the national anthem of ukraine, by the end of the year, our organization recorded more than 150 such administrative cases where crimeans were administratively held accountable even by the word i am against war or i freeze peace, that is, if you say war or peace, it means that you do not agree with what is a so-called special military operation, therefore, even such an expression is a reason for persecution by the commercial authorities, but at the same time, the number of exercises yes, that is i told you that there are more than 150 of them, they are constantly increasing , that is, even despite the fact that there is an administrative or criminal prosecution, people still support

ukraine. you can hear many examples of how ukrainian songs are sung. even on on the streets, and street musicians sing, there are constantly inscriptions on various uh, well, on the walls, for example, you can see on the street there are specific people who are sitting in support of ukraine, such as bohdan-ziza, who threw uh who threw paint into the building according to their path were yellow-blue paint and now he is accused of terrorist articles, he is threatened with very long terms in the colony but nevertheless he does not give up the fact that this is his action against the war in ukraine, that is why, in principle, the support there is quite high for those who have, let's say so very strongly pro-russian views, we are especially talking about russians who were there and who moved after the occupation, some of them are really leaving crimea, they have a big problem, let's say, how to sell their property now because, in principle, what they bought in crimea now has no one to sell it to, but they are afraid especially after

the first strikes of the armed forces of the so-called cotton, back in august and september, we recorded how such russians were leaving the territory of crimea. there were also cases when various representatives of the power structures there, such as fsb officers, the prosecutor’s office also took their families out of crimea. crimea to the russian federation, therefore, in principle , even those who support putin are in a superstructure, in fact, their mood is about ukrainians, because they understand that sooner or later the armed forces will come anyway, and it is clear that there is no such support for putin, but at the same time it is clear that the fsb is very active. they are looking for so-called spies and so on, that's why the persecution is only getting stronger in crimea, maximum eavesdropping for illegal means, and so on. and we constantly record this, that is, they try to control people as much as possible thank you very much for this story, olga skrypnyk , head of the board of the crimean human rights group
