[000:00:00;00] which is kyiv time on youtube and facebook where you can ask our presenters your questions live . thank you for trusting the ukrainian voice of america service. i am nataliya leoneva. good night and good morning. we continue the search for the fate of 15-year-old arina yatsyuk, who has been missing for almost a year . nothing is known, the photo of the missing girl was given to us by her great-aunt, who actually lost contact with her niece and told me the terrible story of her disappearance . arina herself is from kyiv, and when the war started , she was with her father, mother and younger my sister lived in the village of severynivka, this is the buchan district of kyiv region, and in the first days of the war it was more or less calm there, so the family decided to stay in the village and not return

to the capital, where rockets had already arrived, and at the beginning of march, when the buchan district was already full of occupiers in severynivka and and not only did the enemy artillery start flying, of course people were hiding in the basements, but it is hardly possible to say that it was safe there, so i can imagine with horror the feeling of the liquid of her nine-year-old sister and most importantly of her parents who perfectly understood that it was impossible to stay but also to run away it is very dangerous, look at severynivka, in order to go south, no matter what, you had to jump onto the zhytomyr highway and only then turn to motizhyn or kopyliv. and at that time the road was already full of enemy vehicles, the situation was deadlocked and the family still dared to escape. they were all together, uh, buzova, they were shot by ms. iryna, who told me all this

, the cousin of arina's father. that is, she is looking for her niece, because it turns out that the girl's parents were killed, their car was shot the occupiers killed the family, and the elder arina was wounded in the leg somewhere, they took her somewhere, they took her somewhere, nobody knows where it is scary to even imagine all this, the children look alike, they didn't even have time to understand that the parents were dead, because the orcs immediately ran up to the shot car and took out the girls , the sisters, put the younger nine in different cars the occupiers later gave the eight-year-old girl to a foreign family in the nearest village and now she is safe, but the eldest, 15-year-old arina , was wounded in the leg and taken away in an unknown direction , imagine telling adults about all this nine-year-old girl, it is interesting that they were injured, that mom and dad were somehow unconscious, and

the orcs told them that they would be taken to the hospital. well, of course, no one took the sister anywhere. well, when they arrived, they took them away, they just put one in one car and put the other in the second, the fate of 15-year-old arina yatsyuk still remains unknown , so i am asking everyone to look carefully at arina's photo, remember her face and those big dark eyes, if anyone has seen the girl, if someone has seen her, do not delay , any information is important, who is not owns, call us at the magnolia child tracing service at the short number 116,000 from any mobile operator, the calls are free and i will ask for a few seconds of your attention, look at the photo, this is 12-year-old vladyslav ovcharenko, the fate of this boy has been unknown for almost two months, i only know

of the russian federation almost 220 shelling of the border areas of chernihiv and sumy regions, including more than 20 shellings during the current week, meanwhile, karma does not catch up with the enemy launched 11 anti-aircraft guided missiles from the region of belgorod region, of which only one hit the territory of ukraine, the rest of the missiles were detonated in the airspace of the russian federation , the remnants fell on the territory of the belohoroda region of belarus, the world misunderstood ukraine and then simply underestimated the former british prime minister boris johnson shared his thoughts on the anniversary of the full-scale invasion of russia, the politician went on the air exclusively for tsn as part of the telethon, the only news, johnson told how much the british and everyone in the world are fascinated by the ukrainian people, when asked why the collective event initially gave ukraine

so little chance of victory, the ex-prime minister britain replied that they simply could not understand how deeply ukrainians love their country and exaggerated putin's power. johnson also admitted that he would not be against leading the north atlantic alliance after the alliance stoltenberg and sees ukraine as part of it. at the same time, in his opinion, nato was not the main reason for the russian invasion approved by putin. he only wanted to rebuild the soviet empire. days , as you know, but it was clear that this was a catastrophic mistake for him, first of all, it is necessary to make 2023 the year of the ukrainian victory, the military victory must be strong firm and persuasive, it is necessary to expel putin from all territories as soon as possible, and in order to do this, as i understand it, the ukrainian armed

forces need help, they need long-range artillery, missiles, tanks on the ground, and they also need planes to support themselves from the sky, and six leopard tanks arrived in ukraine, but soon the government of this country plans to increase their number to ten, the prime minister of spain pedro sanchez came to kyiv and this is the second visit in a year since the beginning of the full-scale russian invasion, the first was in april in the 22nd year, a few weeks after the liberation of kyiv oblast, he then visited borodyanka, this time the head of the spanish government went to buchi and irpin, according to him, these cities show the wounds and scars of putin's barbarism, he emphasized the quote further russia will not win this war, all of spain stands with ukraine and these words are confirmed by cases, in particular , the spanish plan to hand over six leopard tanks to kyiv by the end of march or the beginning of april , they are ready to be sent and are now

undergoing technical inspection, pedrasanchis also reported that the ukrainian military has already started in spain, i previously reported that spain plans to train 55 tankers , and i received an assurance that spain will give us leopards. different types of equipment and ammunition, but we understand that more is needed to deter russia and restore control over the occupied territories, that is why spain will continue to provide assistance. yesterday, my government announced the fact that we provide leopard tanks to ukraine

is common with the coalition . we plan to synchronize the transfer of tanks with the completion of the training of ukrainian military personnel. the leadership called it weak, in particular, there were no sanctions against russian diamonds and imported russian diamonds, and the process is being slowed down because poland and the baltics want the package to become stronger, if not a diamond, then at least russian rubber has been sanctioned, the discussions will continue tomorrow, however, it is obvious that high-ranking eu officials have also admitted that it will be more difficult to come to terms with the sanctions packages and to make peace with all 27 countries on which it depends. this decision of the international sanctions forum will soon be held in kyiv, it was announced by the head of the president's office andriy yarmak of ukraine via video link took part in the meeting of the sanctions coordinators' forum, which is ongoing in brussels. yarmak

thanked ukraine's partners for the restrictions they impose on russia at the same time called on them to strengthen and improve because, according to the head of the president's office, russia is trying in every way to reduce the impact of sanctions, in particular perry, targeting the sales markets as soon as possible, yarmak said that sanctions should be imposed on the nuclear and diamond industries of the aggressor countries, he should be deprived of his immunity because he is directly involved in aggression, this company violated the fundamental rule of nuclear energy is safety above all we need to close the issue of russian blood diamonds they are a source of funding of the russian military machine, and punish the propagandists, because they are soldiers of the terrorist regime, as well as responsibility for all his crimes, the new address of volodymyr zelenskyi, what

the president is talking about in exactly a year, first , a full-scale war, let's listen. i wish you good health, dear ukrainians, today was a very busy day. detailed reports zaluzhny syrskyi tarnavskyi moskalov the situation in the main directions east is very difficult painful but we are doing everything we can to endure south in part of the directions the situation is quite dangerous, but our soldiers have what and how to respond to the occupier odesa and the black sea area, we control the situation in the north, all our soldiers in this direction see every intention of the enemy, where we need to strengthen, there was a report by the head of the gur budanov regarding the actual intentions of the occupier, there is also a decision regarding our countermeasures, separate, very detailed the seniors considered the issue of the production of supplies of ammunition and weapons . of course, i cannot publicly report

details about this, but it is meaningful work. i am glad to hear that even in such conditions we have the appropriate potential during the evening we receive detailed reports on the situation in kherson there as a result of another russian strike the main pipeline that provided heating for about 600 houses for more than 40,000 people was damaged repair work will continue without interruption until the heat supply is restored and we will restore that these russian terrorists and the bastards didn't do it. we will restore everything. i spent today talking with the prime minister of spain, who arrived in kyiv. i thanked him for the very important spanish defense and political support for the fact that during a year of full-scale war, spain stands with us in defense against russian terror, this is a very

valuable and valuable cooperation, right here on our land, we protect the very values ​​on which this life is based, and not only of our people, but i am of the absolute majority of the peoples of europe of course, the life of spain rests on these values, and that's why we understand each other very well . spain became part of our tank coalition. spain helped us with the protection of our sky. there are many other parameters of support, both implemented and planned today we met with the delegation of the global parliamentary network united for ukraine, these are representatives of 13 parliaments of european countries and the european parliament, the topic of the meeting is absolutely clear from brock, our soldiers, sanctions against the terrorist state , the implementation of our peace initiatives, in particular , peace formulas, i spoke with the president of egypt , in particular, about protection of international law and about

our work to restore food security and about some aspects of foreign relations good conversation i devoted a large part of this day to preparing for tomorrow diplomatic measures. we must do everything to make them effective for ukraine, really important and not only from the point of view of symbolism, because it will be february 24, but from the point of view of real benefits for our defense. glory to our soldiers , glory to everyone and everyone who is now in battle. thank you to everyone who helps us. glory zelenskyi's ukraine to the anniversary of the full-scale war well, we return to the main event of the last hour, this is the vote for gen. united nations general assembly for the ukrainian resolution

. our colleague from new york, olga, is in direct contact with us. koshelenko olga congratulates so, congratulations on the positive result. and please tell me if there was any intrigue around this vote, what was it? i heard you told my colleagues earlier that ukraine will first of all fight for the votes that have always been lacking, and to what extent is africa and latin america we succeeded. congratulations marichko, and in particular, congratulations on the fact that the resolution was indeed voted with an excellent result . i will say frankly, at the preparation stage, diplomats told us that any result above 130 they would consider good, but digitized would be better 141 for against seven thirty-two countries abstained. who are these six friends of putin who openly vote unanimously with russia , you will not be surprised, they are belarus, north korea, eritrea , little nicaragua and syria. very serious work was also carried out by ukraine by our partners to

support this resolution, so that countries would support it. of the so-called global south, this is africa, south america, asia, they are partly under the influence of russia due to historical and economic reasons and repeat its rhetoric in vain, saying that we sympathize with the people of ukraine, but what are suffering, but the supply of weapons to ukraine and the policy of sanctions against russia will not contribute to peace. so let's just put everyone at the negotiating table. behind this is the usual demand not to supply weapons to ukraine and not to impose sanctions against russia. the minister of foreign affairs of ukraine was very satisfied with the result of the vote and about this is what he told us in an exclusive comment . today we showed that the coalition in support of ukraine in defense and territorial

integrity is truly global today destroyed the myth that ukraine is supported only by the west because many countries of the global rooster voted for this resolution today destroyed the myth that everyone is tired of the war and, accordingly , tired of supporting ukraine well, finally , today the myth that russia is able to be destroyed again to win. therefore, the resolution adopted today is broad . it contains a confirmation of the inviolability of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of ukraine, a call to russia to withdraw its troops, a demand not to fire on civilian objects, and it is also a relatively new e item to bring war criminals to justice ukraine originally planned to adopt a separate resolution on the anniversary of the invasion specifically on responsibility for the creation of a tribunal for russian war

criminals, but as minister kuleba says, for this task we need the widest possible coalition with representation from all corners of the globe and as we see today's vote when even the same global south that we have already mentioned votes either in favor of ukraine or abstains, which in principle in translation also means, well, in fact, it is not a vote a vote for but not a vote against because during the voting, only the votes against and for which are counted and obtained are important , they have such an intermediate status, and this vote showed that in fact there is potential for the adoption of the entire resolution on the creation of a tribunal for russian war criminals and putin in particular and our diplomats say that they want to complete this task by the end of spring, marichko, thank you, olya, i know now , i’m trying to take a look, can you tell me sooner? and

how china voted today abstained they held their own, as always, so-so, in fact, they have such double-edged rhetoric . they always say at all meetings that we respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of ukraine, but the supply of weapons and the sanctions policy do not contribute to peace, that these are unnecessary steps, but in fact, on the plane of china tomorrow is an important day because tomorrow there will be a special meeting of the un security council at the level of foreign ministers, and it is there that china promised to publicize some of its peace initiatives. and i really want to hear them at 17:00 kyiv time, it will begin is there any insider information about the plan of this initiative because they have already somehow started denying that these are peaceful initiatives at all, that this is simply their chinese vision of what is being said behind the scenes

of the un, now i would also like to know this and asked everyone i could, but how diplomats say, you know, the chinese soul is very mysterious, let's wait until tomorrow . listen, it's clear that lebed was under pressure, she communicated directly , not like i did a few minutes ago, uh, through the screen , so you'll be a diplomat, too, olya, our good one olga koshylenka is in new york based on the results of the vote for the ukrainian resolution today 141 countries supported it warriors of light in lviv at the lychakivskyi cemetery launched giant beams of memory into the sky such a night on the eve of the anniversary of the great war , the fallen soldiers were honored at the cemetery , relatives of the fallen came their wives, children, parents, the military band performed the national anthem of ukraine, and the priests sent a prayer , lamps were carried to the graves of the newest heroes of ukraine, both professional soldiers

and volunteers who simply could not help being buried there stand up for the defense of their country, say their loved ones in the avdiiv direction, he died there and it is not believed for sure, even though you come now, you always think that the war will end and maybe the door will open today is a special night and a year ago this night should have broken us, but we showed the whole world our strength and our soldiers today are a light for the world, water irrigation helps the work of the hydroelectric power station, so the current situation with electricity commented on the relevant minister herman galushchenko, in the evening he met with a foreign delegation on the anniversary of the full-scale invasion of russia into ukraine

the delegation of the union of parliamentarians of the european union member states visited, they expressed their full support, and the minister wished that their citizens did not have such an experience as our people at ukrenergo calculated that due to the russian attack on critical restructuring from the end of october to the beginning of february, an average of up to 12 million ukrainians every hour processed about 55% remained without light. this is electricity, we all started the blocks that are in the controlled territory, thanks to this, but there are repairs taking place in thermal generation and hydros increased production because of it. well, in fact, we feel that the situation has not been stable, we did not try to extinguish it, we will continue to shine, and so that the whole world does not forget it, famous buildings in kyiv were illuminated in blue and yellow colors. to support the ukrainians on the anniversary of the full-scale invasion

, the swiss artist gary hop-stetter came to which buildings the artist already wears new blue-yellow colors tsn correspondent olena gushchyk saw the evening of february 23, a few hours before the terrible anniversary of the pangars, the lights turn on for ukrainians tomorrow will be a special day to paint ukraine in blue and yellow from distant switzerland , he came for the second time, like for christmas, with a small team with his generator and dozens of patterns on the glass. the photos are specially designed to support ukraine, through such a glass the spotlight paints the national support in blue and yellow birds, photos of ukrainian defenders and even in the trendy leopard prince, the content is very bright figuratively and physically of our support and it is very good that he is impressed in such an artistic way on the eve of pangari, patra is already planning

to paint odesa in blue and yellow, and after the capital will move to illuminate the post office. okay, in the middle of independence square , the coat of arms of ukraine appears behind it, the first stamp of the great war with the symbol already familiar to all of us very nice , you came specifically to see , of course you first came to replace the russian ship, an exclusive new stamp appears for the anniversary of the full-scale invasion and so, for the first time right on the facade of the head of the stamp, a new ukrainian stamp is presented with the symbolic name ptn pnh. i think everyone understands what this is, which shows when a boy puts on the shoulders of the leader of the state fighting with us , and i think this is such symbolism, when the future puts the past on the shoulders, it will officially come out already tomorrow, while harry's artists have one more unfinished mission, the last one was planted in the evening by the okhmatdyt children's hospital, and it's hard

to hold back tears because it's 10:00 p.m. don't children's hospitals look at such crazy support of ukraine from every window children go out to watch the fairy tale, little patients go out, they know exactly what the drawings on the walls of ukraine mean, there will be victory, and people need to go to work , zelensky said that's what ukraine dacha is drinking, strong , invincible, glorious, and it's in vain that the terrible day will begin in the courtyard of okhmatdit, it's light today 1+1 single news marathon, friends, i would like to remind you that tsn will be working all night as part of the single news telethon today, we understand that many ukrainians
