[000:00:00;00] can russia replace ukraine in some markets and partially maybe somewhere so short-term perspective yes 10 grain some er russian can go er to countries like syria and so on but let's talk about what russia is now what kind of pariah countries are there on the global energy markets? yes, with which no one wants to do business. that is, this grain is actually , well, let's not say directly that it is a desirable commodity, and the second thing is, why do we insist on the fact that it is not possible relax any sanctions against a-a russia precisely so as not to make it easier for them precisely this export, do not do not simplify the situation for russia, despite the fact that it a-a hm, a napavshina on ukraine, and also complicates the economic economic component

, serhiy lysak, said that the missile threat was without casualties. russia continues to keep 9 ships in the black sea, among them there are still the same two missile carriers that took part in the attack on ukraine yesterday, one surface and one underwater, taking into account that the day before the russians launched four calibers , currently the general hall can contain eight missiles, noted the head of the press center of the south force defense, nataliya humenyuk, in addition , the enemy has missile carriers at the bases of which two or three hours are enough to enter a combat position , and until operational information from the general staff, the five eastern directions remain key for the russians, the occupiers are leading an offensive on the kupyan, liman, bakhmut , avdiiv, and miner defenders managed to repulse 12 enemy attacks in the kharkiv region , luhansk region, and donetsk region last time in particular , in the vicinity of hrynikivka, beligorovka, the flint bachmut of ivanivsk and the tempo yar

worked successfully, and our aircraft struck six blows at the muscovites and their equipment, as well as from the position of the anti-aircraft missile complex, the rocket launchers and gunners struck the area where the enemy's manpower was concentrated, the occupiers also noted problems with logistical support due to the premature failure of the 300 system and the impossibility of delivering combat components, they have to be returned to the factories in the aggressor country and without a holiday for the ukrainian defense continue to literally break the hearts of the russians, namely, in a day, another five hundred and ninety invaders from the beginning of the full-scale invasion in the enemy army are no longer capable of action, 142,860 soldiers in addition to in addition, the defenders destroyed 12 armored combat vehicles, seven tanks and one artillery system

. the attackers in the general staff note that these data are indicative of russian propagandists calling for strikes on nuclear power plants in order to force ukraine to carry out an emergency shutdown of its nuclear power plants , the analyst of the american institute for the study of war writes about this in his report. provoke radiological contamination in our country, as well as destroy substations that leave ukrainians without power, in their opinion , attacks on three ukrainian nuclear power plants will cause the damage to ukraine is many times greater than the last few massive rocket attacks. 10 new functional beds were received by the gorodyshchen hospital in a small town in cherkasy region. the medical equipment has come a long way. it was handed over by volunteers from taiwan. from the first days of russia's full-scale invasion of ukraine, a team was created

to help our country in distant taiwan, initiated by the family of ukrainian olga kulish and her husband lin.ua the first humanitarian cargoes and ivans arrived in ukraine a few months after the start of the great war, they were transferred to the de-occupied territories of kyiv region, and now a new address appeared on the map of the taiwanese aid team in ukraine, 10 modern medical beds were transferred to the gorodishchen hospital, as we were doing before how will the bed be sent, we will come and see how much the hospital really needs, we were here literally last week, we went with the director, we looked at everything , then i immediately understood that we need a bed here right away and lead to those who have covid, if the bed has the ability to rise, it will be more comfortable for them there, as far as i remember, the doctor said that for the respiratory tract - it is really important that the mattresses rise because they fall

, comfortable mattresses are also not too soft. they are too hard, so before that, the gorodishchen hospital is more than 150 years old, so some of the medical equipment is already outdated and cannot perform its functions properly, taking into account the fact that most patients are elderly people who often find it difficult to move, this is significant improvement of the conditions of stay in the medical institution, because the department is one of the most urgent needs at the moment, because the bed fund of our department does not meet the latest requirements, because we have palliative patients in the low-mobility category of the population. well, there are also patients there with personal needs beds of the old fund, we provide them with strips of beds from taiwanese benefactors, new high-quality ones suitable for long-term stays of patients are shared by doctors, thanks to volunteers,

volunteer organizations, a charity fund in we have a chance to find a place under the sun, and the team and ivaniv in ukraine are already ready to solve new tasks. it is inconvenient. in what sense is it a very strong load on the hands ? well, it is very necessary to do well. so, if someone pushes, their hands must be pumped up. that is, it is not easy for him to get lucky. uh, it's certainly soft, but you can see for yourself that it's uncomfortable here. does anyone have any kind of chair at all? i 'll tell you something like this. i 'll tell you about it, so i refuted. in distant taiwan, they already know about it and from cherkasy for the espresso tv channel, so far i have a studio, an event with antin borkovsky, we will listen to people suffering from

rheumatism. but the arthritic is impossible to get used to it, it does not allow to move. i tried everything . and at the pharmacy, i bought a yellow cream dolgit, it saves me from the pain of rheumatism. dolgit relieves pain , reduces swelling and improves mobility. dolgit is the only yellow cream for pain in the joints and back. time even from a slight effort, fortunately - it's behind me feminost uro helped me thanks to natural ingredients feminost uro helps to restore control of urination in the melon at night now i feel confident feminost uro urination under control buy with a 10% discount in pharmacies pharmacy nt pharmacy penny ta pharmacy layer cheer for dnipro-1

and shakhtar in the eurocups exclusively on megogo and what do you think about lacalut fix ? good, the right choice for my pension, a new cream for extra-strong fixation of dentures and healthy gums. so, your choice is fix . i congratulate you. dear viewers, on the air of the espresso tv channel, the studio program, the event , we will analyze the most important events of this week and try to predict what our guests will bring us in the following days. military experts retired colonel of the british army glen grand as well as well-known video blogger, former member of the state duma, member of the russian opposition mark feigin

, a military expert will be on our air now retired colonel of the british army glen grand, he will analyze the current situation on the fronts and the attempts of the russians to attack in the so-called larger format. glory to ukraine , mr. colonel . i congratulate you accordingly. the key story is the unfolding of a major battle in donbas. attempts of the russians to advance, the battle near ugledar demonstrated that the russian attempt was choked, they lost an extremely large number of both personnel and armored vehicles, the battle in the east should be considered along the entire length of the front in the east and not only in bakhmut or ugledar because these are the places where the ukrainian troops are concentrated and so they are really quite successfully resisting the russians there , but there are other places where russia is looking for slack, these are

certain gaps between the cities of the forest where they can move forward. so they are slowly but surely moving forward somewhere and no matter what it is, it is still a movement forward , the question arises whether we get the overall strategic value from what we are doing in donbas and what to do next because if we we will simply conduct a defensive fight there and wait for the next wave of attacks, then it will cost us a lot of blood. the question is how long ukraine will be able to withstand such a high level of one-on-one combat, because this is exactly what we are seeing now, it is a face-to-face battle all military personnel are told during training that if you have to engage in such battles, you must fight with the intention of seizing the initiative and not simply destroying the enemy. you must actually break through to find yourself in the enemy's rear with

the aim of encirclement and not only neutralization because a one-on-one confrontation is extremely expensive in ammunition and manpower the main goal is always to break the enemy's morale and then move on to other actions my concern is that we are unlikely to act immediately instead we will wait until the systems and tanks of west a arrive this time lag before the counterattack gives the russians time to drop more soldiers and equipment and continue the attack so i think there has to be something else saying if we 're going to fight like that on a certain stage we must try anything to cross the current demarcation line not forgetting that during the first and second world wars most soldiers during the attack covered long distances on foot without waiting for transport dear glend so we all live now in anticipation of large-scale combat operations on

the front line and accordingly, your feeling about the northern direction at the moment does not see that they are going to do anything with belarus , since they took so much ammunition and equipment from under russia, they will simply continue to conduct training there to make sure that we leave as many troops as possible on the northern border because they do not want these troops to enter the main combat zone around kharkiv or the sumy there is always a possibility that they are up to something there but there is no intelligence data on this so one has to assume that if we don't get satellite intelligence from the americans or anyone else then all they are doing is just continuing to destroy school buildings with artillery and rockets and that they will continue to do so and it seems

that the main front is still in the east, it seems that their goal is to break through and thus capture donetsk region. if they succeed, they will not achieve this because it is too big and it will take them too much time, but it seems that this is their main goal, and then in the south, you have a nuclear power plant and now they are pumping out the water around it, which is very dangerous because if you take the cooling water from the nuclear power plant, it can lead to a serious nuclear incident. but again, in the south, the russians are quite positionally weak, it is possible that the attacks in plans to draw all the armed forces of ukraine to one place and then attack elsewhere, but at the moment there is no intelligence data that would indicate that they are going to do this, it seems that they act in the same way as during the battles around kyiv, circulating in their military bloodstream and every time for her or failures so they currently have no evidence of any sensible strategic approach

to the use of tactical nuclear weapons the russians once again began repeating the story that they are a nuclear power began withdrawing its navy deploying its submarine flotillas, which are the carriers of nuclear weapons in particular, that is, they constantly come back to this argument - these are exclusively political actions aimed at sowing uncertainty in countries . let's take finland as an example, it was going to give tanks. now it doesn't and won't until will join nato. the same story with other countries , that is, russia. this is how it plays on the weakness of many european politicians, as well as some in the white house, that it can worsen the situation , this weakness creates a delay, and i have

keep in mind that even a day or two delays, as we know in donbas, mean the death of ukrainians. and this is what putin wants , and he will try to use all possible hybrid methods to sow fears in the minds of european countries so that they accordingly delay the decision, saying that we can't, we are thinking about we didn't decide. we must do it all together in nato. such weakness of the europeans is dangerous for ukraine , because everything happens a day two three four slower. and slowness means death and advantage, and in this period when we are talking about russian plans for a war of attrition have been voiced, so to speak, by many military experts. so we understand from the other side that this means that they do not have a strategic plan of action. a war of attrition is always about

tens and possibly hundreds of thousands of people killed. well, i don’t even want to mention the fake marshal zhukov. you are right, this is exactly what russia is doing, but i am worried that ukraine is also doing it. we pay for time with human lives, not with conquered space, so it is worth asking himself or is bakhmut now razed to the ground important enough to continue to hold him at any cost and what does at any cost mean we will just stand in the same place until we die we will lose a lot of our fighters who would helped a lot in the future, we do not forget that we have already left several times , maybe we will have to do it again. places in order to confuse the enemy in this way and not only to lose

our men well, accordingly, i would like to ask your vision of the pace and number of tanks promised to us , first of all, these tanks will arrive not all at once but two by three by four by five during the summer therefore, the general staff faces an important decision, which is whether to use these tanks as soon as we get them or to hold them until we have a large number and then strike somewhere at the enemy and successfully break through. they can start using them right away, fingers crossed that they have the sense to hold back the tanks until there are enough to break through, why is there a delay, many of these tanks were in stock and therefore need to be brought into proper alignment because nothing will be worse than if the tanks from germany break down on the very first day it demoralized both the soldiers and the whole

country that is why it is so important to bring tanks to full readiness before sending why countries do not provide more tanks i come back to that what i said earlier is partly because of the political aspect, it is about the pressure exerted on the russian countries by the hybrid war with the hybrid comments about nuclear weapons and everything else, we have what we have and it never ceases to bother me that we will wait too long without even thinking about how to attack and how to do something we will wait for the tanks and get out to our side. so we have enough equipment, not only tanks, but also bradley 60 bmps, of which they have already arrived in rotterdam. we must use everything we can to break through and do it as quickly as possible, because delay means that russia is intercepting, and therefore we are moving to the defense. how do you assess russian military resources and

their potential use of additional options, in particular the countries of asia and countries that are russian satellites according to the odkb , in particular, it is about the production of additional weapons and, of course, the use of additional human resources, russia does not receive much from their satellite friends, most of whom are silent on the issue of war, but they receive equipment from north korea, as well as missile equipment and drones from iran's problem with russia is that russia still has a lot of equipment in stock so it's old but it's available and they have an unlimited number of people they can use what they don't have so it's the ability to train these people to fight and you've seen the video of ugledara soldiers in cars but in fact they are not soldiers but civilians in uniform they don't know what to do they don't have any

fighting skills they didn't go through proper training and don't understand what they are doing but there will be many more of them so you can kill them but we should not forget for a moment that russia can continue the war for a very long time. what cannot be given to russia. this is because if we give them time, they will have time to bring more equipment and more people in november and december . they were weak, but we gave them winter so that they could transfer more people they have done it every time we give them time they will take more and more people out i think they have equipment and ammunition for another year or two and if we give them time they can transfer it all forward that's why it's important to put pressure on them and to do it quickly, in general, the classic russian

formula is to carry out offensive actions until the offensive impulse is completed, the simple condition is to carry out the offensive until the people and equipment are completed, on the other hand, we also live in anticipation of our counter-offensive actions, and we understand that the southern bridgehead is extremely a difficult story, because the russians regularly sent manpower and equipment there, i agree with you, we are talking about a breakthrough, the question is always where you are not going to break through bakhmuti and along the entire line from the north of donetsk, which is 200 km there, because there are too many russians there, so the breakthrough must be somewhere else, in fact, for a breakthrough, it often does not take much, it is a question of breaking through the demarcation line, where it is weak, and therefore the transition to the rear of the enemy inward thinking to convince him that we are bigger and stronger than we really are, that is, it is also about psychological military activity and you could see it

on the example of the russian front on the example of the offensive of the allies in germany throughout europe in berlin, it is extremely important to make sure that you have good commanders who will continue to advance and take risks, because as soon as the enemy begins to retreat, everything will unfold very quickly, because the russians are weak in command and control, they have very few means of command and control, there are quite a few radio stations, and so they have to be broken somewhere once they are broken they will be confused and forced to retreat due to lack of means of controlling the soldiers their only way to control the soldiers is to put them in the front line and tell them to go ahead so they can't conduct combined combat this is where they are weakest and therefore this is where we must strike at them by destroying their ability to do something at the moment we are letting them have the initiative and because of this we are losing a lot of people zaporizhzhia what

do you think will happen in this direction it seems that russia has paid off and is simply defending with the minimum number of soldiers and artillery to actually hold the territory so at the moment the situation is a stalemate neither side is doing anything they are gaining ground by shelling each other in the area zaporizhzhia is very difficult to break through because there are large fields and a lot of open space, which makes it very difficult for people to move. i think that they are most hoping for some incident related to the nuclear power plant, we know that the russians built defensive structures around melitopol, so it is quite clear that they predicted that ukraine will begin to advance to the south of zaporizhzhia, building defensive structures further south of melitopol, and therefore in the direction of the crimea, so far this has not yet

happened. it is here that the general headquarters it will attack soon. therefore, we need to wait to make sure of this. i understand that it is extremely difficult to rebuild and reform the ministry of defense now. we understand that this is an extremely delicate story, in particular , in terms of war and preparations for our counter- offensive and preparations for repelling even more large-scale russian military operations, but in any case - how did lieutenant general pavlyuk, an experienced soldier, a hero of ukraine, a man with a good military reputation become the first deputy minister of defense? additional new processes are being launched, we will not go into what may have signs of a state secret, but in your opinion, where should the updated team of the ministry of defense react the fastest, you probably used the wrong word because there was no reform as such, there were only replacements of the people of the reform - it's when processes change, usage increases it uses

clearer processes so you can do certain things faster and more efficiently it also means having processes that are much closer to understanding and supporting the front line than those that exist now because we know that drones have not proven themselves at the moment the defense system does not learn from mistakes if it had learned the proper lessons we would have already produced our own mortars mortar ammunition and our own drones and promoted all this to the front line the fact that we are not doing this indicates a malfunction in the processes processes do not respond to echoes from the front, there should be a much closer connection between what the ministry of defense produces, finds and buys for the front , i cannot but agree that it works very well with the international community, but is neglecting its internal work especially with non-governmental organizations civil society not using the best people available i mean we still

have really great people working in society as volunteers and the ministry of defense is not using their skills in areas like medicine technology and so on there are people who are among the best technologists in the world who do not even communicate with the general staff and the ministry of defense, they have no connection with them, but these are people whom the ministry of defense should use, that's it process change, i.e. reform, when the ministry of defense begins to attract and use all the skills that are available in the country of all the best people in society, then we will be able to say that the reform has taken place by that time. all the necessary skills for this, what we were now afraid of the russians. this is how we understand
