[000:00:00;00] now i owe someone something. no, this is a debt. it’s a little different. we were born with such a psychology and morality. that’s why i can proudly say that i’m a ukrainian. who is out there losing some clothes, who doesn't have enough ladushevleniya for the guys , let's try with my example if there are problems with this, well, the link will be on social networks, write me, i'll type myself , i'll talk myself, i'll help again душавления find specially for espresso slava to ukraine, this is a verdict program. my name is serhiy rudenko. good day and good health to all. today, january 26, is the 337th day of heroic

resistance of the ukrainian people to the russian occupiers. on the evening of january 25 and in the morning of 26 , the russian occupiers carried out massive pieces of long-range missiles and kamikaze drones against civilian targets. of the critical infrastructure of ukraine, 20 missiles of various types flew at the capital of ukraine, kyiv, and all were destroyed, the kyiv city military administration reports. meanwhile, the united states of america announced that it would provide ukraine of the 31st tank abrams zelensky from toltenberg are already discussing the possibility of supplying ukraine with long-range missiles and aircraft, meanwhile, the russian army continues to lose manpower and equipment in ukraine as of the morning of the 26th russia has already lost 123,860 people in ukraine in the last day alone, the armed forces of ukraine

destroyed 780 at the beginning of the great war , the russians had already lost 3,175 tanks in ukraine , 6,334 armored fighting vehicles, 2,169 artillery systems, 452 rocket launchers, 220 air defense systems, 292 aircraft, 282 helicopters, 4,986 units of automotive equipment 18 ships boats 749 cruise missiles 1908 drones 195 units of special equipment the promoted missile attack on ukraine that took place this morning and also about what equipment the united states of america transfers to ukraine and how it causes hysteria in russia, we will talk about this in the next hour, our guest evgeny magda, political scientist, director of the institute

of world politics, yevgeny good day , good health to you and i am glad to hear you on our air, i congratulate serhiy, glory to ukraine , to each other, glory to the heroes, so in the state of america, joe biden said that ukraine will receive 31 m1 abrams tanks to fight against the russian invaders . let us remind you that on the eve of this, the federal chancellor of germany offshore said that after america allocates to ukraine or announces to ukraine the provision of abrams, germany will provide leopards and will give consent to the re-export of these leopards from other european countries that have already agreed to the re-export of this equipment to ukraine, mr. yevgeny, what

does this decision mean in world politics. that is, it means that the world has decided to bring the matter to an end with the destruction of the putin regime, well, that is, this is a rather strong step, and in the exact united states of america, respectively, and germany, yes, you are right in the sense that tectonic changes are taking place in the world, and accordingly, we see that in the western countries, the leaders of the western world well, in fact, those countries that are primarily are producing heavy weapons, now they are making a decision on the transfer of tanks to ukraine, it is not the number that is important here, although of course there will be critical remarks about the fact that they could have transferred more, they could

have transferred earlier, this can all be heard, but let's compare the situation a year ago ukraine received a year ago at a time when nato countries and their intelligence simply knew russia's plans to invade ukraine . the forces of ukraine have proven their ability to fight against russia, they not only did not fall apart, but inflict significant blows on russia and accordingly, we see that actually and russia's actions, first of all, russia's war crimes on the territory of ukraine, they are pushing western politicians to make appropriate decisions. well, it is clear that with the beginning

of the supply of tanks to ukraine, kyiv is counting on support and receiving long-range missiles and aircraft from the west, president volodymyr zelenskyy discussed with by nato general and general stoltenberg to supply ukraine with such missiles and aircraft, let's hear what president zelensky said about it, we need janz soldom, we must open the supply as well of long-range missiles for ukraine, it is important to expand our cooperation in artillery, we have to go out on loaned aircraft for ukraine and this is a dream, a bird of a task, mr. yevgeny, aircraft and long-range missiles this will obviously be the last

nails in the coffin of the putin regime, because well, i think that ani putin. not even the analysts who prepared reports for him there about the possible ending of the russian-ukrainian war a year ago, they did not even foresee that the leopards of abrams and timpatia would appear on the russian-ukrainian front f-16 planes or long-range e missiles e how quickly do you think the west will help ukraine well er give long-range missiles and planes that in principle er can finalize or accelerate the end of the russian-ukrainian war not in favor of putin i think we can

count primarily on missiles that can use himars salvo missile systems. that is, they are relative to the war , that is, count on ukraine to transfer missile technologies that it will be able to use on its own. i think it is not worth it. on the other hand, we have dreams of the truth and the operational operational operational-tactical missile complex thunder and alder are against ship missiles neptune that is, all this must be collected now because ukraine cannot in my opinion rely solely on some prospects well the provision of assistance as far as aircraft is concerned, given the fact that even of the air force of ukraine, yuriy ignat, has already confirmed that the idea is to train ukrainian pilots so that the model has already been determined. i think that this is a matter of

closer places . defenders , but the fact that significant changes are taking place in the western understanding of the events of the russian-ukrainian war is evidenced by the fact that today the air defense forces of ukraine destroyed 47 of the 55 cruise missiles that the military of the russian federation fired over ukraine. in addition, 3-4 x-59 guided air missiles did not reach their targets, he added, we have been witnessing and watching over the last week yevgeny

how the air defense of the russian the federation in moscow is trying to protect itself, or at least show muscovites and russians to other residents of russia, however, how the russian air defense system is going to fight against ukrainian missiles or missiles that will be delivered to the ukrainian state according to yours. these strikes could be or after all they are trying to really protect themselves from possible strikes er what is more ipso or real the feeling of this danger i am sure that on the one hand the russians are preparing

to a possible attack on moscow and other cities, because they are now at the end of other cities of ukraine, military logic predicts a strike in return, and we must be aware that such are the laws of war. actually, i think that as soon as ukraine receives the appropriate weapons, it will be appropriate the blow was struck because he should ask primarily for a psychological character and not a character well, the task of victims among the civilian population is not sure what to strike, well, one that will destroy a military facility in moscow and this will be shown in the western media in

biscotti to the russian information space will have approximately the same effect as you remember. well, you should also remember how when the plane with matyos, with which steering wheel, atias rust sat down on red square in russia . russia conducts such and pso in order to mobilize its citizens in the literal sense, in order to push the second wave of mobilization and, accordingly, to fill the russian army with challenges and once again to stir up the idea of ​​growing ukrainian threats although we are working lavrov's words, putin's words about what about what we, that is, they started hostilities against ukraine in order to stop the war as hostilities, which has been going on since the 14th year and

they say it is the west that started the war, where is the west the subject of the adversary, this is under wartime well, let's say the standard lines are propaganda, but you can't give it some militant idiocy, well, it seems so to me, it's true, no, it's not difficult to understand russian logic at all, because it is practically absent. a light aircraft from hamburg to moscow happened on may 28, 1987. it was flying at a very low altitude. as a result, the air defense of the soviet union did not record the flight of this aircraft , or at least already in the territory of the soviet union, when it was flying in the territory of the u.s.

, they allowed it to move on calmly and accordingly he landed in the center of moscow and it was such a powerful slap to the soviet air defense system, but now we see it on the screen. plane and maybe the ukrainian drone has already completely completed the same route that matthias rust flew to moscow and what we see as ukrainian drones fly to the saratov region and to the training ground or to the wengelsi airbase that it may well be, but look, for a rather long time, obviously 2 or 3 months

, the leadership of the russian federation constantly repeats that this war that is going on is already a war not just over there in russia with ukraine and not just a special military operation it's already a big war, nato's war with e-e russia if really, it was nato's war with russia. what do you think? how long did it last for us between the north atlantic alliance and russia, if it was really so? well, i think that our colleague dmytro knocks here, it's better to ask him . but if we evaluate the military potential nato and russia and the actual capabilities here. i would say that they are devalued, because the russian army here is such that it can be assumed that

the hostilities ended in a couple of months, taking into account the fact that the older part of the russian army was crushed in the first months by the ukrainians by the armed forces that did not have at that time. practically, it is equipped with some, well, ultra-fussy western weapons, so russia is simply selling in quotes to its voters the fact that we are allegedly fighting with nato, it is actually preparing them for defeat. it is saying that well , this can happen, get ready, get ready. and are being tortured to court by inflated russian war criminals, and ukraine is in this situation. i am convinced that it must have its own ideas regarding the dismantling of the russian

federation as an aggressor country, after all, why do we we cannot write about the fact that the peoples of the russian federation can realize the right of the nation to self-determination, this also applies to the peoples of the north, it also applies to the tatars and bashkirs, why can’t they name the right of the nation to self-determination, they are fully ready for this and i think the same republics of sakhaye kutia are ready locally elites to export diamonds without dealing with the federal center, it is simple to create the appropriate conditions for the military defeat of the putin regime, they themselves create it , we must talk about how to implement it for in order to achieve appropriate solutions, friends, we are working live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our social networks, in particular on youtube and facebook, for those who are currently watching

us live on youtube and facebook, please like this video and subscribe to our e-pages in social networks you can now see the link to these pages on the screen. well, read our news on the espresso tv website 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, we are working for you the most relevant information from ukraine and the world on our website well, you can also join the spa sponsors of the youtube channel under this video, just under this video you can see a link to this on this button called sponsor and you can join our sponsorship package e p evgeny we continue the conversation with evgeny magda political scientist director of the institute world politics, we know that russia plans

to increase its army to 1.5 million this year. last year , a decision was made twice to increase the army from one million to one million, 105,000, and the second decision to one million, 500,000 according to your opinion. the ukrainian side must respond in a mirror manner to these decisions and regarding the mobilization regarding the increase of the resource or the reserve of the military reserve in the conditions of the war, which western analysts are predicting that this war will be long-lasting and quite so long, this war is already the biggest war in the 21st century, this war is war between the two largest post-soviet republics, and this war is essentially ukraine's war for independence. i think this

should be emphasized, and accordingly, we should not increase the size of the army, make it as professional as possible, it seems to me that this is the key to our military success, that is, a long war will really have serious psychological consequences, and of course there are problems that need to be solved now and worked on. but i think that we need to make changes inside the country faster that there won't be a better time, because when the war and phase ends and the problems of internal politics, which at

the moment are often sounded under the slogan of the wrong time, they will begin to manifest themselves and in society will be very difficult processes because during these 11 months millions of citizens of ukraine perceive being surrounded in black and white black and white tones, we have to understand it and draw appropriate conclusions and work with it and accordingly the soviet slogan everything for the front everything for the demand it should play with new blue and yellow colors in the sense that for the front and victory and the requirements set by the european union for providing ukraine with 18 billion euros during 2003 and what our allies talked about before

, what we need to talk about is just making a bet exclusively for the militarization of ukrainian society, this is a path that can be forced, but it is not the only one, we also have opportunities to strengthen society and strengthen the basis for our victory, mr. yevgeny well , i cannot but ask you about the latest personnel changes in the presidential team because they are connected with the scandal, someone bought eggs at inflated prices for the armed forces of ukraine, someone took $400,000 in bribes, someone simply rested abroad when the war was hot and when

in general, there is a war going on in ukraine. what do you think, how quickly and how quickly did president zelenskyi’s team react to all these comments, because 4 stories were described in the online publication ukrainian pravda, and then , following these stories, they resigned and issued statements about the dismissal and criminal proceedings , this is the measure that pushes zelensky to take action. is it still public civil society in ukraine that society is putting pressure on the current presidential team ?

in the 19th year, they said, well, in the case of something, poroshenko, you remember, there were such statements, but i assume that without the decisive word of the western partners, none of this would have happened. at the moment, there are several standoff moments that took place. they look like an attempt to let the couple go, and not to solve the problem. i think that you will agree with me as a person who has been following ukrainian politics for a long time that the resignation of the deputy head of the presidential office has never caused such a stir, usually most people simply did not know this surnames, at best, they knew who heads the presidential office, so damn it, we have to decide for ourselves, because

it is important for society, whether it is possible to stop measuring eggs in kilograms and sausages in decimeters, that is, there must be some clear thing, and when the minister of defense oleksiy reinikov says that we are now we will change the food system, there will be punitive food, which is lousy. well , the only thing missing is the delivery from restaurants to the front line. that's how i see it. that is, this is an informational moment, that is, the changes that i see, they are passing monarchically. not democratically, monarchically, because i don't see where in this, in this mess and in all this inconsistency, the prime minister is the position of the parliament, why the prime minister relying on

the parliamentary majority, the monomajority did not even symbolically submit a resignation letter, you can imagine in any the country to the west of ukraine, a number of similar scandals without the reaction of the head of the government, without the reaction of the speaker of the parliament, well , it is very strange, in fact, the reaction or lack of reaction of the prime minister, because i think after the very first incident with a bribe of 400 000 dollars, which incriminates receiving a bribe to the former deputy minister of community development of the territory and infrastructure, vasyl lozynskyi. the prime minister should put on the table an application for dismissal. and even more so when it comes to possible equipment for the ministry of defense

of ukraine, and this is also a question and not only for the prime minister. era, and to the minister of defense if he questions his uh, the decency of his team, and not so that after nabu announced that there were some abuses in the ministry of defense , the deputy minister of defense is not shapovalov vyacheslav submits a resignation letter, that is, there are many, many questions, but the most important question is who is actually responsible for looting, corruption and bribery, who bears political responsibility or the prime minister of ukraine, who rarely appears in public. it is not clear who actually manages the cabinet of ministers or the representatives of the office of the president of ukraine headed by zelensky because it is no secret that all power in ukraine currently belongs to one political party and

two political persons mr. serhiy, having written a portrait of volodymyr zelenskyi without crimea, you know very well that since 2019 we have had a system , well, actually at that time, a coronavirus monarchy, because it was before a large-scale invasion, including against the background of covids, this is not the first time that this happened during the presidency of viktor yanukovych, when the constitutional reform was canceled, they accordingly returned to a presidential parliamentary republic, we have not canceled any reforms now we continue to live in a parliamentary-presidential republic and i i don't understand why ukrainian politicians forgot about it even in the conditions of martial law, because one of the main ukrainian tasks in this war is not

to turn into russia lite into another russia, not to become like it we should not kill the dragon and become the dragon itself, we should leave lancelot that we we are already using similar terminology, and if ukrainian politicians do not understand this, then i have reasonable assumptions that within a fairly short time both our western partners and then our citizens will remind them of this in a completely a legal way er this is absolutely clear and well, although er pentagol pentagons talk about the fact that er they despite everything despite all the corruption scandals they will help ukraine because

er there is er according to er the vision of what we need to help ukraine. what do you think about the corruption scandals that we are currently observing ? how much will they scare our western partners away from ukraine or how much will they stimulate them to turn to the ukrainian authorities so that they they fought corruption more because, well, no it is excluded that there are four people who have resigned, this is only a small part of what is currently happening in the government, taking into account the fact that the transparency of procurement is now removed, and it is meant transparently, and we do not see the declarations of officials now, it is not clear what are they buying there? did they buy for 2022? well, that is , there are very, very many questions regarding the responsibility of those people who
