[000:00:00;00] about the intentions of the enemy. i am sure of this, our commander-in-chief knows exactly yuria. i thank you very much. and for joining our broadcast, i thank you for your service. i thank you for the protection of our a-a. achilles of the 92nd separate mechanized brigade named after koshovoy talan ivan sirk was in touch with us. and serhii gnizdilov e-e m- m commander of the air reconnaissance department of the 21st separate mechanized brigade sarmat is joining us. sergey, you have another direction yes because just now with your colleague, mr. yuriy, we were talking about the luhansk direction, yes, they are in the direction of matchmaking-criminat and you are in the direction of zaporizhzhia, er, before you joined, we announced the information that

the institute for the study of war, they say that a certain such a large-scale offensive, but the armed forces are actually holding up well, mr. yuriy confirmed this to us, in turn, you confirmed this to us in your direction on zaporizhzhia. do you observe any uh-uh attempts to strengthen the enemy, attempts to withdraw forces, distract attention, anything unusual you see tell me, please, well, i can’t tell you everything, you know what’s possible, that’s why i’m saying what’s possible. well, it’s true that the enemy is strengthening his position, but i can’t say that in our direction, uh, it has started. the one that is now starting in the luhansk direction because it was repeatedly warned and they said that the most important battle of this war will take place directly in the donbass and now

the zaporizhia direction is not as hellish as the donetsk or luhansk directions our direction will have to worry a lot. nevertheless, the special operations forces and the defense forces of ukraine are preparing for all possible options and consequences. therefore, we are preparing for everything . we are always ready for everything. of the front line. and tell me. hmm. that’s how i understand it. if you don’t record anything, or if you record, maybe you know some specific e-rotations of the movement and maybe some update of the equipment of the units’ warehouses, you mean an operative yes, unfortunately, i can't talk about it. i'm sorry. well, because we saw, in particular, the place

of the head of the local hova, yes, about their regions of responsibility. and they reported that the occupiers come there from time to time and try to quarter them in separate directions . it is logical, in principle , any military unit, when it comes in , it must be located somewhere, that's why there are cultural houses directly there. i don't know there, and certain such objects and civil infrastructure are sometimes given to the military in order for them to be able to settle somewhere in general, it is a fact that in principle it is logical to say that the enemy came directly , for example, i don’t know, and settled in every house like that

. there are even facts of forced eviction, the shoemaker has repeatedly stated this and you recorded it as well. i am a military serviceman. i am not a representative of serhii, so i am correcting you. my eyes are everywhere, not so everywhere, we are engaged in the development of close combat, and not so deep in you. well, let the occupier think that everywhere sergey, i thank you, in general, i thank you for your service and for protection and for your work, and serhiy gnizdilov, the commander of the air reconnaissance department of the 21st separate mechanized brigade, sarmat, was in touch with us about the situation at the front, we continue to talk, we attach an employee of the security service of ukraine in 2004-2015 and a consultant to the committee of the verkhovna rada of ukraine on

national security and defense ivan stupak joins us, ivan, good evening. so , first of all, i want to discuss this statement with you analysts of the institute for the study of war, they are talking about the fact that the russian occupiers have launched a large-scale offensive in the luhansk region. how do you assess this? have you noticed this in your analyzes and do you see changes ? maybe in the tactics of the strategy. and what is this? about all the serious movements of the russians there, about the movement of people's equipment, ammunition, spare parts, well , our intelligence will report on this, since this information is very important, it is very sensitive , sensual and it changes constantly , all this data can change every hour, and from the further forecast depends on them, we can only see the plus -minus of the final stages, but now we

really see that the russians are intensifying in the eastern direction, there is such a big momentum, that is, another wave is being added, but it is difficult to say whether it is and this is the whole offensive that they planned. is this only part , you know, the first part and the performances, and the rest will be later, we know what you think, because i just wanted to ask . well, i will just say that so far we are seeing the first wave. what will it be? and the last thing is that the russians do not have additional forces, but we can expect any, let’s say, podlyankas from them, but when they show that here we are advancing, it may just be a distraction, and all this time they are preparing in a completely different direction . moreover, we saw that such an interesting moment when the russians completely developed mobile internet in the luhansk region. that is, it was done

so that our military intelligence people with e-e say yes partisans who are in this territory could not timely and i guess you couldn’t transfer any information, it becomes that territory. and you take a photo, and there’s no way to transfer it, because you can’t transfer to the internet the geo-location where the mobs of the kadyrivians of marketi desantura are located, that is , it is possible that this is done with the aim of creating certain logistics chains in this territory and that 's how the russians are the first let's say it like that damn it yes they are trying to work out this new tactic because they are hunting our fire adjusters well good good good a and our informants it is much more difficult that's one more one more one and so they made the internet with one conditional circuit breaker well, no one is working anymore, but actually regarding the issue of the offensive yes, yes, russia, the publication of e forms

of the shelf with a reference to a ukrainian military official, writes such a thing that allegedly russia has prepared for the offensive, thousands of tanks and armored vehicles, hundreds of fighter jets, and what allegedly a ukrainian official also told the publication that ukraine expects a new huge invasion in the next 10 days, and there were published er, well, colossal numbers. to decide because, well, it could be either way, so i won’t go into details, but what do you think about such information and do you know if russia can accumulate some colossal technical reserves? i recently looked at analytics . i saw what they have in storage there according to the tanks, there seem to be more than 13,000, if i am not mistaken, it was clear from them that not all of them were workers, it was clear that half of them were stolen, we saw these reports that at the beginning of the war, but still, well, look, i

will tell you. even the russians themselves did not fully they know that they have them there for storage. there is no longer a single such, i don’t know, conditional excel table. yes, there to which you open and there in all the warehouses there in novorossiysk, vladivostok, there are as many tanks as there are in working order, that is, so that this excel table is conditionally possible steal, look and understand what is happening in them in general, everything is more of an old-school version, more of an old-school version , these are ledgers, yes, under the seal, secretly , a separate journal, an accounting journal, yes, in which records of military equipment are kept, all this decentralized there in the warehouses there in the warehouses there they lost something there they found something there and it does not give us a complete picture for us and them , including the russians, to understand what they have

in those warehouses in general, what has been stolen, what has been stolen from us, what has not yet been stolen from us that is only in the process of dismemberment. let's say that the best option now is to count on the fact that the russians have enough equipment to make some kind of offensive, this will morally give us the opportunity to be ready for any improvisations on the part of the russians if there is no offensive it will be fine. it’s fine. everything went fine. they don’t have this equipment. and if you prepare yourself . they don’t have anything. everything is fine. everything is fine, and if they don’t suddenly surprise us, it will be very unpleasant. it’s very psychologically beaten, so we have to prepare for them. there is all this, but our military is capable of giving them a good deal of nothing and driving them to the bone. moreover, since we expect good news from our western friends, we are not talking about the wing yet - it is far away, but

there are also many different chips in western friends these are missiles of different ranges and aviation, which can carry out reconnaissance and at a distance of 200-300 km distinguish whether it is a tank or an infantry fighting vehicle and give such information to our army , that is, there are many different features besides tanks and aviation, which are very necessary now which we can get very quickly and ivan and what actually, well, in the matter of the offensive, er, of the offensive, i wanted to ask you if you have any picture in your head of what is happening now, that's how we started there , our er, our block here is this informative thematic from the fact that the institute for the study of war said about luhansk region, so that it is alleged that a large-scale attack on your analytics has already begun there , why does it talk about other areas

of belarus, zaporizhzhia, and in particular about transnistria, because you know, somehow we forgot about this area, or maybe russia is going to accumulate something there for transnistria itself. well, let's go. okay, let's go from behind, let's go from transnistria. well, okay, according to the data that is there, a large amount of russian weapons are really stored in these warehouses . i have a lot of equipment at least there was yes, at the beginning of certain events in the transnistrian region, no one knows how much now, we know that sometime in 2015, moldova stopped allowing the russian military to rotate and there was such a situation that there are simply no people to guard all these warehouses - what happened, they started taking local residents , giving them passports of the russian federation, and the local councils are trying to work, yes, the work is not dusty, it’s not safe , they are

lying, what are the soldiers’ services? guard, therefore, i am not serious about this whole story with transnistria, but to force the group in some way, well, you can just open the political map now to see. and in what way will russia be able to use its tanks , special forces, aviation, such an option, if there is one . well, there is none at all. belarus, belarus, but there is really a rotation of the military, er, more precisely, the mobiks. i say they are wonderful here. they didn’t bring them to belarus , they went through training there, then they took them back to luhansk, in the direction of the peak. our intelligence recorded that there were approximately 11,000 military personnel of the russian federation trained there now, as i understand it, there is a constant rotation and there

were even data that they were there, well , even some russian publications wrote about this that they were almost in people are brought there in freight wagons for rotation for transfer. well, of course, this is not unconfirmed information . i thank you for your contribution . thank you for analyzing these directions. in 2015, the consultant of the verkhovna rada of ukraine on national security and defense was in touch with us, they analyzed the actions of the russians in different directions, tell me honestly , how do you do? then i touched, i just sit and cry, put my feet shoulder-width apart, smoothly raise my right hand

up, reach up with the edge of the right palm, as if you are trying to press it on the sky, and with the edge of the left hand , reach down, take this pose, take several smooth breaths and exhales, imagine that you are a tree which slowly shakes the gentle wind sways a little on the inhale smoothly come out of the pose and put the palms on the chest on the exhale slowly lower them rest for a few seconds and do the same but already with the other hand there this technique in your first aid kit self-help more here i love my city old cozy the streets are new, wide, noisy avenues. i love the smell of coffee in the morning. in a cafe near my house

, i love my family. i respect my neighbors. i love children's laughter on the playground in the park. the third day you do not sleep is difficult but worth it how to get financial assistance if you have suffered from the military aggression of the russian federation assistance from the red cross society of ukraine who will receive residents of the occupied territories who lived in liberated settlements at the time of deoccupation in the amount of uah 1,200 one-time assistance for everyone, regardless of age and gender financial aid from the international organization on migration who receives the residents of the occupied territories who lived in the liberated settlements at the time of deoccupation for 2,200 hryvnias once assistance to everyone, regardless of age and gender, assistance to evacuees from the funds received is not a single account of integration mines in the nbu who receives citizens who are evacuated with special safe territories trains of ukrzaliznytsia children and persons with disabilities

uah 3,000 for adults uah 2,000 one-time cash assistance money is issued by mobile branches of ukrposhta on arrival stations of evacuation events, learn more about the provision of financial assistance by calling the hotline of the ministry for reintegration of the temporarily occupied territories of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyy discussed defense support for ukraine with all european leaders. the president's office reports that the head of the ukrainian state held a meeting at the eu summit in brussels, where radio liberty correspondent zoryana stepanenko is currently staying. good evening, zoryana. what happened, how did you react to the arrival of our president, in particular, good evening to you , yevgeny, i will start from the very beginning, so

to speak, right now, why volodymyr zelensky came to brussels personally right now since as you know, as you remember, none of the leaders of the eu member states since the beginning of the great war in ukraine did not do without the participation of the ukrainian president online, he addressed his colleagues and, in principle, thus delivered his messages in this video format yes, well, but i came in person because, as zelensky’s team said, this type of communication can, in principle, be considered and considered more productive, and later they point out that it might not be possible, in principle , to come to the president for security reasons you know that the ukrainian military and political leadership is waiting for a russian counteroffensive to the anniversary of the invasion. well, it is not known whether the ukrainian president would have the opportunity to leave the country because of the factors that he is guided by when making such a decision . uh, the situation in ukraine

in general is risky. this was explained to us in his team and now, however, they said that the risk justifies itself for ukraine, so that the russian revenge , which is expected to be met, requires weapons such as new to the already existing e-e arsenals, in particular, long-range and combat aircraft with such important elements ukraine would like to replenish e-e the weapons that are already there zelenskyi's team, and besides, a very important role at the front is played by an invisible player at this time, the time of delivery of everything that the countries, and in this case europe , agreed to provide, but that has not yet reached the ukrainian battlefield, about it zelenskyi in fact, he spoke with his partners, they in return assured him of their readiness to stand side by side with ukraine and invest in its victory as long as it takes, the negotiations were substantive and the president said positive

signals from partners, and he heard, well, actually , listen. i am very grateful to have heard from the leaders of some european countries are ready to provide us with the necessary weapons , including airplanes, and now i will have a number of bilateral meetings with the children of combat aviation, we will pay the necessary attention, so we continue now the work here in brussels in the eu parliament is how the leaders welcomed their e special high guest and from ukraine viktor urban was the only one among all who did not applaud the ukrainian president . his territory and forbids it, arguing that he belongs to the peace camp and advocates easing anti-russian sanctions well, but in

this camp in the middle of the eu, he is lonely, his colleagues write the blumber publication, urban colleagues, i mean other leaders and the regions, so bloomberg referring to his sources, he writes that they expressed their readiness to provide ukraine with the majority of weapons, but with regard to fighter jets, again, according to the information of this media, no specific commitments were given now regarding the future of ukraine in the european union, this topic was also among the key ones . zelenskyi discussed plans and prospects and of the president of the european commission said that the progress of ukraine on the way to the european union is impressive, adding that the achieved results show that ukraine can work quickly and efficiently even during the war about deadlines or acceleration on ursula funderlyan did not mention the press conference, she assured that she will continue to increase the sanctions pressure on russia and announced the presentation of a new package of restrictions , listen, in a few days we will propose

the 10th package of sanctions for consideration, we will impose sanctions on military and political leaders. propaganda because their words poison the public space in russia and with its borders, you insisted on this , volodymyr, we follow you, colleagues, i don't hear direct speech, i don't understand it from them , the connection just ended, direct speech actually furlyan if you have anything else to add, please add a word, unfortunately zoryana stepanenko doesn't hear us, but here is the main thing from the event of our president's visit to europe .

who didn't applaud didn't congratulate our president like that, but i have a photo with the president for posting where they are just holding hands, well, yes , we are talking about the president's visits to europe with the president of the ukrainian foreign policy association, the first deputy minister of foreign affairs of ukraine from 2007 to 2009 volodymyr khandogi joins us, volodymyr, good evening to you as well, and in general , your expectations from yourself, from such a visit of the president, if you know that president, we are. zoryana mentioned in particular that they were on. wrote down the sender of the appeal now we are already seeing personal visits and not to one point as we have already seen. yes, several expectations at once. what does this mean in diplomatic language and how does it change our tactics and strategy in

the diplomatic field? well, look first of all i would like to say that we have really witnessed such a powerful landing of ukrainian diplomacy over the last two or three days, the level of the president's meeting is unprecedented. during these two days, he managed to meet with the key leaders of the key countries of the world . well, apart from that, as we know, he participated in active meetings and in the meeting of the european council, and if we remember the visit to ukraine a few days ago by almost all european commissioners , we can state today that all this demonstrates that the european states and the european union as

the organization has passed the point of no return in the sense that they have already formed an awareness of the possibility and desirability of human membership in the european union, the fact that the president is speaking today, so to speak, in face-to-face format is also very important for obvious reasons. he is not could have made many many visits before that, but today we are going through, you know, a very important stage in our affairs, the war of the russian federation is entering a new level, and therefore i think it is important , first of all, to stimulate support for stimulation let's say yes, the support that the european union and the collective action in ukraine already gives today, nothing can replace it, life formats cannot directly replace communication, simulation , stimulation of support, i understand correctly , a personal visit, we need to push our

partners and give them additional arguments in order for us not to lose this support in the future, you know, many people are talking about a certain fatigue, uh, from this situation , some states are crying out, so to speak to give preference to some incomprehensible diplomatic method of solving this situation. so, i think that the president's visit made it absolutely clear that ukraine is not just something that will be there, it demands from our partners, but specifically shows the possibility and necessity of this help, because in fact ukraine stands on the leading edge of the struggle not only for its own independence but also for the independence and security of europe as a whole , volodymyr, actually continuing the thesis about

fatigue, here the edition of pain published it there is such a material in it, they say that zelenskyi allegedly convinced macron and sean to provide scholz with long-range weapons , i will quote what pain writes, and france and germany have the potential to change the situation, and this is how i see our negotiations today, so that we can do it as soon as possible we will receive heavy long-range weapons, and our pilots will be modern planes, so the russian aggression will end sooner . this is what zelensky allegedly said at the meeting with macron . the question here is how to do it so that, firstly, there is no fatigue, and secondly, how to convey to of our partners, it is precisely this thesis that really convinces them that if there is more and faster weapons, then this war will end sooner. well, we are proving this thesis by direct communication with the leaders. i think that

the european states well, to a large extent, they have already understood what exactly so it will be and they need to speed up and expand let's say so the nomenclature of the provision of those weapons that ukraine needs, that is, volodymyr president zelenskyi has repeatedly said that the sooner we get weapons, the sooner we will end the war with russia victoriously by the federation , well, that is, such visits. they only strengthen this thesis, did he say this directly to macron and something ? it lies on the surface. and by the way, it should contribute to this

understanding and, so to speak, not to allow this so-called fatigue to dominate the mood on the european continent. everyone wants to stop the war, but macron literally seems to be the same said the other day that if russia stops the war, it means that the war in europe will be stopped and the world will live in completely different parameters, but if they stop the native ukraine, then it will be destroyed, that is, stop the war with such slogans they don't work, you have to prove that it is necessary to end the war with a victory in order to make such events on the european continent impossible in the future. and as for long-range weapons, there are tanks and fighters, i think that now all the red lines have been removed from the point of view of the types of

weapons that can be supplied to ukraine if you remember a few months ago, let's say, tanks weren't even discussed , i couldn't imagine that today we would practically discuss the issue of the delivery of f-16 fighter jets to ukraine, although we always talked about it at the beginning of the war , do you remember we proposed to close the sky over ukraine by these very means. well, awareness does not come immediately. and this is, so to speak , the reality with which we have to live, but vladimir, actually, about those red lines that you mentioned, which we are already there there there we have crossed and we are already far from those red lines that the european leaders were talking about there, hmm, did you see after this summit, after the visit of the president in brussels, any beacon signals that the ice has been erased, what about the issue
