[000:00:00;00] and then in one box where there are blue trees, now we will put together a box for lera’s friend, whose photo we have in captivity, and well , in principle, we will collect it in a standard way , starting with a backpack, which is placed so that later we can put together all the things that are from the box into the backpack itself, just inside the guys when they see when they notice something else, what is it, although we wanted to do it as much as possible so as not to catch the eye, it is a standard hygiene kit, we put it, in principle, it can differ depending on of what we have at the moment because all the hygiene that we have yes, we provided it as partners , we agreed on it here it's all free , so it can be different from shampoo

deodorant toothbrushes toothpaste what do you think i trust that taste i like about bridges about bridges, about the amount of money saved, thanks to the fact that our partners gave us, it works out to one and a half million hryvnias, and it’s really cool, i can’t believe that it seems like this in principle. surely everyone will want to help, in fact, we have a process it took two to three weeks to establish contact, to reach out to someone in general, but it was very worth it. i

still do not know whether the places of detention in which the devils are now are given warm things or at all some hair they are still in what they came out of azovstal everything was burned in most of them that is they came out who was in what who had what and are still in these things for other units in our country suits are printed and this particular suit was a regimental one the suit they were issued earlier in the pop was engaged in production by a guy who served also there starting from the 14th year after the beginning of the large-scale invasion, he returned to the war with us and in september he died in the bakham direction in the donetsk direction and now we will continue to work with his wife, i.e. i have many positions that we buy and many positions that were obtained there for free all the time. and when we already

know the list of people and we can already collect the specific sizes from the hospitals, attach the necessary shoes and bring them to the location that's why we leave a place for the shoes to be somewhere, then we'll put the postcard in, it's ready. usually we just write for ourselves for orientation in the corners, the sizes, so that we can orient ourselves later. how much is this already addressed?

captives and in general, in the total number of 2,000, a little more than 2,000 are still being held, i was just thinking yesterday that i try to take care of others as much as i can, but i don't know who can take care of me, i'm sure that my husband, well return and they ask and if what when when they are returned and we understand that and in fact at the moment we don't even know if they are alive but if so, well, we don't know coldly and you can't perceive it as a passive spectator

what are you doing what will you not be to smoke yourself, why didn't you try it? and why didn't you try all the chances there? i think it's easier to wait when you know for sure that a person is alive in captivity , although it's also not clear what 's going on there, but it's being in a state of such suspended uncertainty. hope but you don't know this for sure, it's actually very strong, it tears you apart every day, a big and terrible war is interesting because everyone talks about love, and nobody mentions, in principle, at critical moments, some super serious instructions, and business matters, everyone always talks about love and about

dreams, you know, at the moment, the most important thing for me is to know that he is alive . if i know that i am alive, i can wait a long time. he was waiting a long return to a normal world, but since it will take so long to wait, an experienced military pilot can master a fighter in 16 in 6-8 weeks , the greek bakewell, the former president of the air and space forces association of great britain, told the public about this in an interview, the former military pilot is confident that ukraine's partners should provide fighters as soon as possible, the city's air force is simply incredible in the fight against russia , so i have reason to assume that these

talented men and women will be more than are ready to accept challenges and master the new system, congratulations on the first channel of public broadcasting about the decision of western partners to transfer tanks to ukraine ukraine reminded the west that it would also like to receive western fighter jets, the leadership of britain, the united states and germany have already stated that they are not considering such a step yet. do you think it is realistic the prospect that ukraine will receive these planes, i think it is realistic , moreover, it is extremely important because you cannot enter this war in one dimension, you need enough weapons to protect tanks ground troops of the population, and not only now but also in the future , as i think it is important. i understand certain political challenges and i am sure that we will discuss them during

the interview. but i think that it is and we should do it now talking let's talk about a specific type of western fighters that i agreed to receive, which of the fighters would be the most suitable for ukraine and why exactly? supply chain with a good industrial base that can continuously maintain aircraft you need a model capable of performing as many missions as possible an aircraft that can perform air-to-air and air -to-ground missions as well as counter enemy air defenses in addition you need aircraft that are relatively easy to learn to use with a good layout and systems that can be relatively quickly integrated into the air force. i believe

that the f-16 fighter best meets all these requirements. there are better airplanes in the nursery, but in in general, this is a universal option, it is like a midfielder in football, the one who knows how to do everything and does it well, such fighters are in service with many countries that can and do not mind providing them to ukraine, the decisions made are obvious, since we are talking about the f16, then this is the united states, but maybe some other countries there is the first question, which countries are ready to provide aircraft, the good news is that in europe there are many fighters in 16 in service and over the next few years, some countries plan to replace them with the f-35, for example , that is, there will be many available aircraft and they

the question will be whether these countries are ready to provide them potentially. this plane can be provided by others, i will not name them because i believe that the sooner there is a joint solution, the better. we single out some countries and then attack them . russia plays a key role in this process . they sell these airplanes surrendering where they can be sold later their voice is important and what about airplanes equipment technologies they want to protect after all this is an american airplane with american support networks the airplane manufacturing factory is in the usa the supply chains are also mostly concentrated in the usa , the support of the dean is important in theory, but of course, i think it is much more difficult, in the end, without american support , we cannot do without the planes. it is not necessary to deliver from america, the process can be approved by america , but the planes can come from a third

party, this way can be again possible remember how president biden said that the usa is not yet considering the transfer of fighter jets to ukraine, when in your opinion, what are the prospects for ukraine ? the question is whether the usa will transfer f16 to ukraine biden was asked when he was about to board the helicopter. he answered no, but i took it to mean that he would not send planes. i didn't take it as a definite decision that it couldn't be done in a different way . for me, the challenge is that such countries like the usa, great britain or it, let’s remember the story with tanks, everyone is concerned about what can and what can’t be done in order not to cross the so-called red line with russia

in order to prevent escalation. airplanes, tanks, artillery, etc. and to provide part of it and not all of it is unfair, moreover, all of this is intended for defensive purposes to protect ukraine and not to attack russia , the sooner people realize this, the sooner they will stop perceiving it as the fact that nato is providing planes and not a number of donor countries the more nato members the sooner we will overcome the belief that there is some red line to allow russia to decide everything is a mistake, that is , to separately touch on the issue of how long will it take ukrainian pilots

to transfer from a soviet fighter to western amen i mean to go directly to the execution of combat missions first of all let me express my admiration for what an amazing job ukraine is doing it defends itself and does not give in the ukrainian air force is simply incredible in the fight against russia so i have reason to assume that these talented men and women will be more than are ready to accept challenges and master a new system, this system differs in many ways from the soviet equipment they used before, but i have already worked with ukrainians and i know that they are very they quickly learn tactics and understand the operation of the f16 system, they are designed for ease of use, many of their systems are automated, very powerful, an experienced military pilot could start using such an aircraft in 6-8 weeks , maintenance will take a little more time, but

it is possible to help with maintenance and remotely, we could provide headsets for video communication with specialists who know the system and know how to correct errors, many such planes are repaired very easily, you don't need to mess with a wrench. i'm sure we can handle it in a few months someone says it will take six months to a year or more and uses that as an excuse saying we don't have enough time but a whole year has passed we could do it twice already in terms of infrastructure or will we have enough time from the moment of the decision to provide the necessary for e.g. f16 infrastructure is a valid question, the design of airplanes is quite complex , but at the same time they are very durable, if

you use them in difficult conditions, they will last longer than you think, of course , you cannot do without infrastructure for takeoff a runway of a certain length and quality is needed. i do not know the ukrainian situation well enough to understand how easy it is. is it difficult to do it, but the planes are not too heavy, they do not need fancy runways, their lower part is a little narrower, so the surface of the runway must match requirements, but the ukrainians are fighting on their native land, so the weight of the plane, the fuel or the flight range are less challenges than the challenges from russia , the spokesman of the ukrainian air force said that about 200 fighters are needed, how many ukraine could receive, for example, if there was a positive decision regarding the f16, how many such planes can actually be received, i think this figure is quite justified and such a number of planes

will be found to manage a fleet of planes not just at the same time, all 200 planes are not used , the planes must be serviced, use each at its own time, hardly all 200 always will be serviceable, some will need to be repaired , some will fail completely, but if we think about the long-term perspective, of course , in the west, we all pray for peace and that ukraine has regained all its territories, but you will probably have to defend your country from an attempt at aggression in the future, which is better, and i think such a number of planes would not be too much for ukraine even in peacetime. in the future , it depends on the ukrainians how quickly they will be able to integrate 200 fighters into their air force. therefore, it will be a challenge, but 200 aircraft is quite a realistic number if

we remember the situation with western tanks ukraine will receive at least three types of tanks, abrams challenger and leopard, should ukraine follow this path with fighters if we assume that there will be no consolidated decision regarding one type, for example f16, an excellent question, i think if ukraine had a choice, you would not go this way, i can only imagine how many logisticians there are now concerned with the need to control three very different types of tanks the abrams tank for example has a jet engine it is as difficult to control if not more difficult than an f-16 fighter new equipment new challenges to control different types of tanks

it's difficult, i would choose one thing, and that's why i think 16 is a good choice, this fighter really copes well with most tasks, so it makes sense to use it only , the air forces of certain countries use one or two types of weapons. but i think that ukraine does not need a headache in the field of logistics and training related to trying to manage two different types of weapons, i would remove one thing and more , however, i suppose that if you are offered 50 aircraft of one type and 50 of another, you can agree to take what they give you, but i would acted differently, i think ukraine also has another question about the f16. how do you rate this fighter if you compare it with what russia uses against ukraine? here it is worth highlighting two

points: firstly, the capabilities of the aircraft; - 30 years ago , however, its electronic weapons systems, sensors and missiles are the most modern, they are very effective and have proven themselves well, in my opinion, they are a more than worthy answer to russian equipment, the main difference is in the design and the use of airplanes, our method of fighting is flexible and diverse, just like the ukrainians, the russians fight very predictably, very stupidly and directly. how much money did you spend on the airplane, no matter how you convince yourself that it is the best if you do not train tactics that would use these powers on the maximum distance you will not go. i am almost sure that the f-16 will be a more than worthy answer to most russian aircraft, at least those that fly over ukraine or near here

, in general, western fighters could change the situation on the battlefield of the russian-ukrainian war. i believe that the use of u -16 will primarily affect two moments: first , a powerful signal from russia arrived. if the west is ready to give everything it has and will continue to give until ukraine finally defeats russia, this signal should be heard neobov putin must, but the russian people should definitely hear that they will not win this war, i think they will be very nervous because of planes like the f16 - this is a powerful signal for ukraine, you and i will take care of you, we will say everything it is necessary and right now, a year after the beginning of the difficult, dangerous, desperate and cruel stage of the war, ukraine should know that we are with it two fundamental points, even the very

offer of providing planes would help put them on the agenda regarding the impact on the battlefield, i think this will keep russian planes away, which means the battle will move to the ground plane of the earthlings have shown that they can handle direct combat this levels the playing field and also deters russia from trying something else this could and should help deal with attacks on your infrastructure and population, but at the same time i am a realist and i know that this will not change the course of the war instantly, a few f16s will not immediately help win the war, but they will still be important, it will at least equalize the positions in the tactical battle, i think it will be huge and it will be a powerful signal ukraine demands

from ukraine's agreement that it will not use western weapons on the territory of russia, we have also heard that regarding tanks, for example, in your opinion, such a requirement will remain that politicians can say such things about fighter jets, but most politicians are not ex-soldiers sailors or pilots and don't understand the complexities of modern warfare such that russia can attack you from its own territory so that it is unfair to attack them in return is a delicate balance between rational just and legitimate defense it can mean defeat from time to time whole outside your borders i think it is not contradicts international law, some may perceive it as ukraine's intention to attack russia, but we are not talking about an offensive, but about

an active defense potential, it should be said that way america will probably worry if there is in 16, it will fall into the hands of russia, however, f16s have been sold all over the world for 30 years and russia probably already knows enough about them , so here we are primarily talking about whether this is considered a red line for russia and whether the dynamics on the battlefield will change if attacks take place and to russian territory with the help of equipment provided by the west. i believe that if russia does not want its system to be attacked on its territory, then it should stop shelling ukraine from its territory. this is the topic. russia already has the opportunity to shoot down ukrainian fighter jets with long-range missiles from its territory

territory or from the territory of belarus, e.e. sour cream, the question arises if we have these restrictions, will it not at least partially eliminate the possibility of using fighters for self-defense, there are several systems , one of them is also in ukraine s300 and s-400 are the most modern land-air systems that have russia is in service, they have an incredibly long range, they can fire at ukraine from the territory of russia, trying to hit one of these systems with the help of an f16 would be quite dangerous, it is possible that there are other ways to disable these systems that are not it is necessary to use the aircraft. as far as i understand, the problem is not only the whole 300 or s400. russia declares that it uses long-range missiles r-37m ukrs against ukraine, i do not have access to all the information, so i do not know

how effective this system was. yes, it has a very long range, but a long-range missile launched from a long distance is relatively easy to shoot down, there are several tactics that can be used to attack the f16 , the fact is that the f-16 will also have its own long-range missiles that the russian pilot who has 100 hours of flight training per year and a plane that his boss does not want to expose to danger, will be very nervous approaching ukraine if he knows that there is an f16 nearby and his anxiety is justified, you mentioned the worms of decision-making, what weapons the west transfers to ukraine and what not ukraine? can you explain to our audience what is the fundamental difference between the transfer of tanks to ukraine and

the transfer of fighter jets to ukraine, i share your disappointment because you do not see the difference , it is presented as a purely defensive weapon that protects ukrainian borders and cannot go beyond them actually the tank has quite a long range if you fuel it enough it can cover quite a distance and in any case it is a killing machine for destroying russian soldiers and tanks so the idea that it is a nice friendly warm and cozy weapon is just ridiculous if you understand modern warfare , you know that having only tanks or air defense without tanks will mean certain limitations, you need a cumulative effect . that's why our armed forces have this whole

set of tools to be able to to win in every sense the invasion of the bullet on the tanks stuck on the road to kyiv we in the west saw this as a target western weapons removed this obstacle we were upset when we saw that you could not or did not have the tools to do it you him and prolisok this is some fact itself to believe that the use of fighter jets is a scalation that will allegedly bring you one step closer to a russian war with nato or even worse to a nuclear war, no matter how crazy putin and the russian attacks were, now i do not think that they are completely rational, there is no need to think too much about it. what could be their answer? article 51 of the un charter allows states to resort to individual

or collective self-defense. collective defense means cooperation with other partners until the un security council resolves the situation with whom we know that the un security council will not be able to resolve the situation because russia is its member, article 51 gives permission for collective self-defense a and b 16 will be used for self-defense, everything is just talking about red lines on this issue, it is more about certain psychological red lines, i don't know what conversations are held between politicians, they communicate, sometimes they can threaten each other, saying if you do such and such, i will do such and such, it sounds terrible, but it is such a serious game of poker, to understand how real someone's threats are, a dream of the last year russia demonstrated extreme weakness and

inability to do what it expected to achieve very quickly, they barely reached where they are now, of course, this is mostly the merit of ukraine, but there is also the factor of russian incompetence, russian weapons turned out to be not as effective as we thought, as for nato in place of russia, i would start to worry and would try in every way to avoid a confrontation with nato, in the end , an interesting fact is that ukraine will already receive dreamstone missiles from the west. in your opinion, this can be an additional argument in ukraine's negotiations with the west regarding fighter jets, they say, we already have missiles for your fighter jets, maybe the time has come

for fighter jets, so mishin strikes not with f16 but drop the projectile from the plane if you already have the projectiles. anyway, it’s just a carrier, i think the problem here is not in the carriers, of course the plane can fly a certain distance, it has a certain combat radius and theoretically it can fly into the territory of russia, however, i think that ukraine will use planes and other types of weapons will take care of them extremely intelligently will take care of their safety this will also mean not to use them at full range not to use them against russia on the territory of russia because it can cause difficulties so yes, you already have a weapon, so why accept what is a platform for its use marshal thank you for the interview glory to the heroes well, what interesting things happened in the world of sports know my
