[000:00:00;00] we are trying to show the alliance that its response mechanism to such incidents and provocations is actually imperfect because nato as an international organization was created under different conditions and it was created to counter slightly different military and political threats than the hybrid ones that exist now, and although nato continues to actively transform its security system for more than a year, it is clear that the alliance is far from ready for all possible incidents and far from all possible surprises, and therefore even if our statements differ a little from the position of individual nato member countries or from the position of the alliance as a whole, this does not mean that we should not make these statements on the contrary. we should , in principle, emphasize that there is such a problem in the current euro-atlantic security system and ukraine, well, if it does this not to announce it not to complain once again, yes, or

to ask for summer or something else, and we are ready to act as part of the solution to this problem , that is, at the expense of our participation in the investigation of these incidents strengthening our potential and monitoring of the airspace and uh, eventually destroying these air targets, we can in principle insure the eastern flank of the alliance and the southeastern flank of the alliance from uh , similar similar cases, therefore, in principle , what is this dissonance - it is actually, well, no er, something negative is the opposite way, one of the options for further practical cooperation between kyiv and brussels, and the last question , as briefly as possible, but moldova, unlike romania , confirmed that rockets really flew past the territory today er and er, we know that moldova is not a nato country, which means that we can assume that no matter how many times fragments of rockets fell there, no rockets flew by, there are big doubts. will this somehow affect the reaction of the west? did i understand you correctly, or will romania

still be patient if it loses its patience, as our previous speaker said and hinted romania can somehow defend itself well, it is unlikely that romania will be able to make such a decision without coordination with other nato member countries, especially since, again, romania is now one of the outposts of the southeastern flank at the end of last year, the americans transferred their 101st airborne division to the alliance. and it is located practically under the border with ukraine, that is, we must understand that any reaction of romania to such incidents will be there only the participation of the armed forces of romania itself. yes, but there is also the potential participation of the armed forces of the united states of america . of course, it will require certain political coordination, and of course, moldova, as a country that is not a member of nato, is of course it is much more free to voice the official official interpretation of the official position on such incidents and

in fact moldova in this context can also act as a very close ally of ukraine defending this common position of ours on strengthening euro-atlantic security sports on international security military expert we talked about the consequences possible escalation by russia, nato countries, thank you. well, as we have already touched on, in contrast to romania , the ministry of defense of moldova confirmed that a russian missile crossed it today the airspace of the country and for this reason the russian ambassador in chisinau was summoned to the ministry of foreign affairs, and here it makes sense to remind that since the beginning of the full-scale russian invasion of ukraine, fragments of russian missiles have fallen in moldova three times, the last time it was on january 14 , then the fragments were found in the brychan district of moldova on the border with ukraine well, today, an hour after the announcement of the crossing of the sea by a russian missile , the prime minister of moldova, nataliya havrylytsia

, resigned , the entire government resigned after her, and the new prime minister became dorin reichen, he was the president's advisor on security issues and held the position of secretary general of the supreme security council of the president of the country. now the ex-prime minister of the country, natalya havrylytsia , did not name the specific reasons for her resignation, but during the briefing today, she mentioned that for the past 1.5 years, her government had been running the country in in the conditions of continuous crises

, i gave a conductor , i step down from the leadership of the government with a sense of fulfilled duty and peace of mind. moldova, together with ukraine , received from the european union the status of a candidate country for joining the eu well, the day before volodymyr zelenskyy at the eu summit in brussels said that ukrainian intelligence intercepted the kremlin's plans to take control of moldova, according to zelenskyi, he passed this information to the country's president , sanda, but in the end it is not known to kyiv whether he gave an order in moscow to act on this plan or not , zelenskyi said. well, speaking of moldova and the russian threat to the country, it is also worth mentioning the law that was passed a few days ago by the country's parliament, the law on punishment for separatism, now, based on the law, the economic blockade of transnistria should begin, but tentative negotiations with the separatists, who are supported by the kremlin, have change to coercion for reintegration writes in his article the editor-in-chief of the european pravda, serhii sydorenko, who monitors the situation in moldova after 30

years of reconciliation dialogue with the leaders of the pro-russian regime in tiraspol. separatists who are supported by russia, and russia, meanwhile, allegedly has a plan to take over moldova, this is what ukraine and moldova say, as ukraine is not a member of nato, what does this all mean, let's talk now, oleksiy tubure a moldovan political analyst joins our broadcast. hello, good evening, and so the government has changed in the country, and the former prime minister said today that moldova is entering a new phase based on security, and dorin reichen is replacing her. yes, they do know that he was

an advisor to the president of moldova on security . that the change of the government is eh. the internal decision of the ruling party of the government did not go away under the pressure of the opposition, protests, and so on. this is the decision of the ruling party, the official version of the resignation. proposed by the president maye sandu, a specialist in security issues, we are not he , they hold the position of adviser to the president on security, defense.

the future government will concentrate on security issues more than the previous ones. one thing is how eh. experts and commentators in the general sector talk about politics in the youth. they understand that the government has left and because there has been a certain amount of dissatisfaction with the progress of eh reforms in the republic of moldova, all the more so that this is important. because of moldova, as it was noted in your introduction, we received the status of a candidate country for joining the european union on an equal footing with ukraine, from a number of obligations after after receiving this status in june, we must report on the work done and there is hope that the new government will somehow speed up these reforms and transformations and moldova will not miss this unique chance and all the conditions of the european union and will start negotiations with you about joining the european union

and if he talks about how the war in ukraine changes, er, the political agenda in moldova, er, today, er, there was another report that a russian missile violated the country's airspace, this is not the first similar case. that's how the war in ukraine changes the agenda to moldova. in which direction? well, the war changed everything , the vocabulary and understanding of the processes changed everything. you talked about the transnistrian region now. in general , the majority and the political class of the expert community have a complete understanding of what the resolution of the transnistrian conflict is completely. envy at the outcome of the war. the russian factor will no longer be decisive . russia has lost its influence in this region after

, and we are almost confident. issues in such regions as transnistria and-y in general , the solution to the transnistrian conflict will become, well, a question of only time and would be a technical question, the main obstacle to the solution will disappear, the obstacle is russia, eh, in moldova, eh, now the opinion dominates opponents do not agree with this well, in general, the government thinks so, and many people think that we should strengthen our army and modernize it according to the most advanced models.

the conversation about abandoning the status of neutrality, which in general does not guarantee security, is correct, i just want to remind our viewers that this status of neutrality is also written in the constitution, in my opinion, it is written in the constitution in moldova , but as in most countries that declare themselves neutral, it is one-sided declared neutrality will not fly. there is no guarantee - it is not guaranteed by international treaties of the second kind, yes, by guarantees, in particular , ukraine, in some sense, its security was guaranteed at least formally by the budapest memorandum of 1994, in our case there is no such thing, we declared this neutrality oh , it is written in our constitution, but for 30 years this neutrality has been successfully ignored by the russian federation, which is still holding on the territory of moldova on the left bank its contingent of russian

troops protect weapons warehouses in the village of kolbasna and carry out a peacekeeping mission in the security zone between the lemon and the right bank, so they see what is happening in ukraine and are under constant pressure i heard your address, goods from the russian federation, we understand that neutrality will not help us in any way, we must strengthen our security , we must seriously consider the possibility of joining nato. in the public field as for the rockets, this is the one in russia that flies over the territory of moldova , this was a flight today , yes, there were several flights

. the impossibility of our army to shoot down a shepherd with these rockets, because we assumed that there could be no external threats to the youth, and the end of history has come, as the well-known and american political scientist francis fukuyama said, they all share the same service, liberals, democratic wars it won't be anymore now, we understand that this is not quite the case, that we have to insulate our army, and in general, moldova's work on this has begun. but yesterday, volodymyr zelenskyi said that he allegedly handed over the plans of the kremlin to the president of moldova take control of the country. what do you think, was such a plan in fact? well, in general , how did moldova react to such news ? is there still such a plan? there was , and we talked about it before

president zelensky announced that the ukrainian intelligence fell into the hands of the ukrainian intelligence at such a moment describing the stabilization of the situation in the country and so on shrot obednaya oligarch involved in the theft of billions and money laundering, fraud and so on. convicted first person by distance. he left the country in the 19th year. now he lives abroad, but his party operates on the territory of moldova and organized a mass protest, and in the fall, the goal of these protests was to overthrow of the government and the change in the external political orientation of moldova, er, er, the idea was

to destroy the european european aspiration of the country and reorient it towards the russian federation. i don't know what it is about it is stated in the paper that president zelensky handed over to the moldovan side , no one has seen or read this paper except for our special services . these protests in general, how the government rates did not lead to what happened today, this is not the result of these protests, the internal and independent decision of the party, the government, thank you very much for your comments, oleksiy tulborov, political an analyst from moldova joined our broadcast, thank you very much. well, after today's large-scale missile attack

on the territory of ukraine, the question arose whether this is just another attack on critical infrastructure. forces to attack from the territory of belarus , on the other hand, in the east of ukraine, now the hardest point of the intelligence front of great britain, in its current report, reported that from february 7, russian troops probably reached of tactical successes in two key sectors on the northern outskirts of bakhmut in donbas, the forces of the wagner group advanced there by 2-3 km . further to the west, russian troops increasingly dominate the northern approaches to bakhmut, and in the south, russian units advanced around the western outskirts of the city of vugledar, where they resumed offensive operations at the end of january this year, at the same time, intelligence emphasizes that russian units probably suffered particularly significant losses in and around ughledar, since

inexperienced units were probably involved russian troops fled and left at least 30 undamaged armored vehicles, according to a british intelligence report. well, the day before, i will remind you that the american institute for the study of war stated that another large-scale offensive by russian troops had begun in luhansk region . this is confirmed by the ukrainian authorities. well, what about the offensive in luhansk region and the situation in other the russian military and the so-called warlords themselves tell about the areas of the front. look at the resources claim about the successes in the direction of svatovo, crimes and capture by the russians by the invaders of part of the village of novoselivsk in recent days, more and more videos are appearing in pro-russian media, allegedly taken during the offensive in luhansk oblast, according to one of the so-called warlords , a hurinich is working in the composition of the bc soviet self-propelled rocket launcher designed for demining.

military group of the lpr and they show a video of the equipment moving towards the flint, and the wagnerites complain that every five-story building in bakhmut is defended by the soldiers of the armed forces of ukraine like a five-story fortress. there were 300 200 bullets were fired at me and they fired machine guns and sniper machine guns, a video of a fierce confrontation in a residential building is being taught and the ukrainian military is holding the defense of bakhmut babakhmut, the infantry defense is supported by drone operators, this is even better within

the framework of the morning detox program and mortar calculation of cornfields, which the invaders and the mi helicopter recently flaunted 4 under a coal mine in the luhansk region, they shot down a russian bmp terminator, which was also highlighted the other day in a propaganda video by maksym grabovskyi of radio svoboda, and from the city of bakhmut, which obviously remains the main tactical goal of the russian army, the pension archive was taken away, according to radio liberty correspondent serhiy horbatenko, who works there the day before, volunteers from kharkiv region and donetsk region brought humanitarian aid to the residents of bakhmut, and it was the volunteers who were asked to evacuate the archive of the city administration of the pension fund . look how it was, i hope. now we will show you this material serhii horbatenko

is a correspondent of radio svoboda, who has been working in donetsk region since the very beginning of the full-scale invasion and filming everything that it is happening there and filming what is happening in civilian settlements and on the front line, we are showing this material. now it is all terrible because the house was bouncing all night, it was all terrible, the aviator was a few days ago, too, thank god there were no victims and the children live there, lord let someone will hear what civilian children are doing, where are you shooting ? bakhmut is storming now and is storming very hard . i would like to be driven away. hurry up, so that this happens

, let's go. right here in this cell where i will blow everything out hot. as you can see, even the toys are here , now there are children sitting here . we know the children in which basements. at the moment they turned 55 there and 60 years old, men and women , they cannot receive pension assistance now , that's why they asked us, no one can do it , the archive is happening under the islands, everything is broken

, it's almost scary, such conditions are the archive of the pension fund, this is the future pension in what kind of elderly people so that everyone would understand why we are having such a hot time here how hot it is now in bahmut how hot a friend of mine was buried in the garden yesterday a woman flew in and it was hot to dress her here

how uh eh stalker clean in general this is the one he drives well here is the full left side at once here is the door. here is the door of the archive, anu. look smoothly, i have drawn it here. this is all necessary to get out, what else is there? they invented coffee passports, there are a lot of them here, this is a copy of passport data of citizens of ukraine, this is a copy of passports, it is

necessary to get it out faster here is what exactly the offensive in the east is, now let's talk about the broadcast serhii gaidai, the head of the luhansk regional military state administration, my greetings to you. good evening, listen , i don't know if you have seen part of this material or not. the foundation may get the impression that it is preparing for all scenarios and that as a result of this large-scale offensive bakhmut may also be captured or what do you think ? well, i am not a military expert eh and let eh after all, the military command makes a decision. but i can say simply as a person who sees this war from the first day a-a look how many people the russians put on the bakhmut assault and they

do not count with them at all of course, we are fighting against a huge machine and they can certainly throw there 50,000 or 20 or 40 or maybe 100 thousand newly mobilized trained fighters and if it will be a very difficult situation and in order to preserve our force defense units, it will be necessary to go somewhere a little redeploy and continue to hold the defense and continue to defeat the enemy, i have not seen a huge tragedy here, but today the situation there is very difficult, but it is under control by our military and they are standing and fulfilling all the tasks set. yesterday , the american institute for the study of war stated that an offensive had begun in luhansk oblast. well we know that absolutely most of the luhansk region has been captured, please elaborate. and what does it mean that the offensive started there some time

ago, the number of offensives has increased significantly, and you can even say 24 hours a day in certain directions, the number of shelling increased significantly eh and well, in principle, such sounding began in small groups, but it was not just mobilized, they were cadre military paratroopers or eh , russian grushniks who in small groups tried to probe our defenses, look for weak points eh and then they began to attack our position in waves in the direction of kremytsy . today, er, even today, you can say that there is a certain calm

, which was because they, er, russian-occupation troops pulled back to be replenished, because they were , well, quite seriously destroyed, and the equipment , as well, even here, we have a er, wonderful situation when the russians made a video about their terminator super mega tank, which goes to support tanks, they praised it so much, they showed that it was fighting right in the direction of kamin. well , the day before yesterday, our guys burned it down, but you seem to have announced that today or yesterday that the russian troops planned to go from luhansk region to the city of liman in donetsk region, there are clear signs of this. well, the fact is that exactly where they are constantly storming in the direction of kliminnaya, this is exactly the direction of the criminals further.

of the regime on leaving the administration to the non-luhansk donetsk region considering that in the luhansk region, unfortunately, but still , only 12 settlements are deoccupied, then this is the easiest way for the russian command of the military center task because, compared to us, there is much more territory in the donetsk region and it will be much more difficult for them to fulfill this task , they are all tied to some dates there, it will now be february 24, the year that russia has already attacked ukraine on a full scale, and they they would like to go to some administrative borders to at least sell something to their population, but from what i can see, with my own eyes , they will not succeed in anything, but if we take into account this last wave of offensive that has started , maybe you know and what kind of troops

participate in this because we used to know what to do mercenaries of the wagner group are mainly concentrated in the east. has russia replenished its reserves with some elite units ? yes, we have completely diverse troops. well, the kadyrovs do not fight. they only rob and use them as foreign troops. and they can accidentally go if they are confident in their propaganda to go to some population center if they are sure that everything is normal there, everything is under control, but they can get into some hands over parts of our guys and then they run away, throw everything a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a a lot of newly mobilized, these are both prisoners from wagner and newly mobilized from the territory of the occupied luhansk region and from the territory of russia, they took prisoners of absolutely different people from moscow and somewhere from some distant russian territories, we

had er, these are all small nations, the buryats are different, what kind of special forces did we have, bars sobor, er, we had airborne troops, and there are er, and we, er, had and are er, units of the main separate administration. well, that’s it probably such an elite of e-e troops because it is the maximum trained military personnel in the russian federation, what does this tell you? well, what do they emphasize with the people, now in the luhansk direction through let's do the task of going to
