2:30 am
[000:00:00;00] on many other issues, i emphasize once again so that you understand my position, you cannot hide anything from the modern world , full stop, sooner or later , everyone will know everything. today there are a lot of me, too. the verkhovna rada today prematurely terminated the powers of people's deputies from the banned royal malt of voloshin and in our country . by the way, just in the comments, our viewers they are looking and asking will there be sanctions against yuri boyko or not ? i don't know why sanctions should be imposed against him because he is still a people 's deputy. you are always called mrs. danylo. i don't know how to address you here.
2:31 am
you always say it with an accent, an accent that i draw attention to, look at what concerns er yuriy boyka that and all the people that were related above all to the party of regions to russia to the fact that we should be brothers that these are our accomplices that this is ours a country without which we cannot live in me the position was, is, and will be quite simple, concise, guys, take your bags and leave, how do you get out of the verkhovna rada as soon as possible, you have nothing to do there, you have no right to represent the interests of our glorious people, this is the first question, the second is the situation if you do not do it, if someone thinks that some russian projects in the future, they will have the opportunity to spread on the territory of our e-e, forget this nonsense altogether , we still have young modern figures who say that we need a russian-speaking audience, we need to talk to them, because they are already there, they are
2:32 am
there remained a legacy after the soviet union , i can tell the young people to be persistent, stop working on what russian projects you fools, the people of ukraine will not allow you to deploy here as soon as there is a small phrase of cooperation, friendship, some kind of puppy , an anniversary related to the country of the terrorist , this will all be over, here we are starting , don't annoy, don't annoy those who are already annoyed, it was such an appeal to the representatives of the prohibited pzj, our colleagues from the project of the scheme published an investigation about the successes in the introduction of sanctions regarding of putin's aides, and in this material it appeared yesterday that in november of last year, the national security council voted to impose sanctions on persons who participated in the so-called annexation of eastern and southern ukrainian regions to russia, but the president did not put the sanctions into effect and did not put his signature. can you can you explain what the problem is, there should be
2:33 am
clarification, look, we now have a large volume , as far as sanctions are concerned, sanctions are introduced every week to the presidents of our country, and every week i have a conversation with the president regarding the process of the procedure, everything that we work out, we send the appropriate method to the office of the president and all the sanctions that were voted before, they are all in the works, the signature of the president is a matter of time, there is a certain procedure when it is necessary to check so that there are no herbs and all do you remember very well when there was a situation related to the so-called laws with enemies , when there are surnames or there is one letter, it was decisive when there are documents signed by the president, we do not need to do any conspiracy theory in the sense of how they were they will continue in the future, another matter - this is the control over the implementation of sanctions, how does it happen to the executive power , how do they monitor, how can we say, work out all the processes, now this
2:34 am
is an issue that they are urgent in , as far as i understand, there are draft laws on this matter, they have different opinions, believe me we will prove all this and the people who ruined our country, prevented us from living and prevented us from building our ukraine, they will all be punished if they fall under our sanctions. we will make this possible from us for in order for us to work them out properly, that is, i understood the question of time, and the last question, in one of your interviews you said that russia actually occupied belarus, but the belarusian people do not want to fight against ukraine . occupied by the russian federation , and it has been occupied for a long time in the economic and political sense. then explain the logic of why ukraine still has not broken diplomatic relations with belarus if it is occupied
2:35 am
russia why? why this to kyiv? what does it give ukraine and kyiv to be present in belarus? you know that a person who currently has a certain authority on the territory of belarus , he thinks so, he controls this situation, so you want us to provoke the situation regarding certain processes on the territory of belarus , i don't think so, what is happening, we understand that it is normal, all the processes that are there in belarus are a certain challenge for us, that you must consciously understand that we have no desire that from the territory of belarus orders were given to the belarusian army to enter our territory, we are doing everything possible to prevent this from happening, and we each have a report at each stake, the report of the supreme command so that the relative situation that is happening on the ukrainian-belarusian border there to date, there are about 10,000, because as a russian federation, who study at those training grounds that are on the territory of belarus, they provide them with such
2:36 am
an opportunity, but as a language, we have no desire for belarus to be belarusian the troops joined together with the russians on the side of russia, do you think that while there is the presence of ukrainian diplomats there , the risk of escalation is reduced, there are a lot of processes taking place, tell me , there are many diplomats from other countries in russia, i think not so much now a lot, well, i can say that the united states recently appointed diplomats there, but even though there were no diplomats from russia before that , there are many, so that you understand, a lot because they understand that the disintegration of russia , that's what it's called, there is no public discussion now. they think that we are the smart ones here what do we say about this, the public defense cannot emphasize it now. and the fact that they are their own analysts is that they are beginning to understand certain processes. believe me, after they took care
2:37 am
of afghanistan, after they took care of our country, when all the forecasts were completely wrong, they today they listen to the things they hear from the territory of our country, thank you very much for the conversation, for taking the time oleksiy danilov , secretary of the national security and defense council of ukraine, we did some very intermediate results for this year how has ukraine changed, how has the world changed and in the future what will happen next, thank you very much well, i will remind you today for about 2.5 hours volodymyr zelenskyy answered questions from journalists , he still paid more attention to international journalists, but also to questions of ukrainians also answered, for example, they asked him what disappointed him the most this year, let's listen to this answer . who
2:38 am
among your team disappointed you during the full-scale war, and who disappointed all those who went on the 24th, everyone those who left kyiv, those who left cities, villages, who should rule the state or protect it, fight for it, all those people disappointed me, that was the answer, and now we will discuss the press conference of volodymyr zelenskyi, his key theses, what he answered, what he did not answer, petro oleschuk, political scientist joins our broadcast e p oleschuk my greetings good evening how did you like the press conference in general ? did you highlight some key things for yourself ? in fact, i can't say that i heard something so unusual. i think that in general , the press conference fully corresponds to
2:39 am
the tone and to the same issues that were voiced by the president earlier. there were quite a lot of different questions, including from journalists who represented states were presented to the world in very different ways. in general, in principle, i think that almost everything that was said before was repeated and stated in relation to all those issues that were again discussed earlier. and regarding the prospects of some negotiations and in general regarding zelenskyi’s plan and regarding how it is reflected in the resolution of the un general assembly, so i personally cannot say that there was something that you know that surprised me personally or confused me.
2:40 am
it seems that volodymyr zelenskyy, through journalists from china and latin america in particular, conveyed such an invitation to a visit to a meeting to the leaders of these countries . the principle of all these messages was preceded by the fact that you and i understand very well that relations with some countries of latin america are not very easy for ukraine at the moment, we know that there were many stories about how these countries did not have a positive attitude towards ukrainian offers, for example, certain types of weapons or shells and the like well, in principle, zelenskyi, by the way , said today that it is very important for ukraine to further promote, let's say, its diplomatic cooperation to other regions of the world, except for example, europe, africa, latin america, that this is a fairly important strategic direction for ukrainian
2:41 am
diplomacy. well, their answers were generally in this context, that ukraine is interested in establishing relations with the countries of latin america, asia, africa, uh, so it was really diplomatic enough, and zelensky called the leaders of certain countries to visit ukraine so that they contribute accordingly to the establishment of relations between their countries and ukraine, well, to a journalist from china, he directly told me that he wants to meet with sidzepin, invited him to meet him, and by the way, this topic was the same, and the answer of other journalists is , but we know that now there is a rather serious problem, because this informal support is sometimes hidden, sometimes the maximum veiled and diplomatic
2:42 am
support provided by china from time to time is sufficient russia , according to the information of the state department and other sources in the west. it may reach a somewhat different level in some foreseeable future, and it is clear that this cannot but disturb ukraine, and it is clear that the task for ukrainian diplomacy is to prevent this from happening, to slow down, to stop it. well, apparently, all these answers are completely in line with the appropriate political line. i don't know about you , but of course there was little time and not all journalists asked questions, but mostly i thought that this was the president's output and theses that were more aimed at the western audience, maybe it was for this purpose that the press conference was held, so to speak. so , in fact, there were a lot of answers to the questions of western journalists, but you know here hm in this and not n- it is not necessary to look for some appropriate system
2:43 am
well, let's just not forget that as a result of what has happened during the last year, one way or another, ukraine is in the center of world attention, and the president of ukraine is again in the center world attention and attention to any forms of public activity on the part of the world mass media. she understood, that is, it is clear that a large part of the world mass media in one way or another sought to participate in the press conference of the president of ukraine because it means something to them and i think that for the president of ukraine and for ukraine it would be reckless enough not to convert this attention and this importance into some specific message that we can also send to specific countries, it must be used accordingly, all the more so. now we face a rather serious diplomatic task
2:44 am
of supporting in the world the appropriate level of attention to support ukraine and a year after the beginning of russian aggression, therefore, i think it is absolutely natural that ukraine tries to make the most of any appropriate measures to influence the world audience, well, including using the increased attention that has formed towards the ukrainian leader in the modern world. well , this is exactly how volodymyr zelenskyi's application for a meeting with the leaders of latin america sounded. let's listen, because it was just made today under the time of the press conference and i would really like to hold a conference. i would like to hold a meeting between the countries of latin america and ukraine, and you know how difficult it is for me to leave the country , but i would go specifically for this meeting. i would be able to convey them to their society, you know , the crown will not fall. i do not have it. i am ready to go to the meeting, our diplomats are coming
2:45 am
to meet us, we are ready to plow 24/7. tell me where to buy more hours, we will do it, and these steps are necessary and this is how it was necessary to work 30 years these are also very important things and we worked on it a lot every day and you worked on it and the armed forces because victories on the battlefield give confidence no one likes losers no matter how scary it sounds but it's true everyone wants to be winners and that's it everything and everyone must plow inside the state outside the only chance the only chance how to win everyone must plow inside the state and from the outside tell peter and we in ukraine i mean there are some serious problems with the establishment of relations with latin america because today it has been so thorough several times turned to zelenskyi on this
2:46 am
issue. well, i think that this issue is a bit more complicated than just problems with establishing relations. i think the key problem is that russia has systematically exerted its influence there for a very long time. otherwise, she was present there seriously enough. she used in her interests, for example, some anti-american sentiments that exist in some countries and were formed historically quite a long time ago. she tried to position herself as the main one in opposition to this very european neocolonialism, regarding which there are also certain stereotypes there since quite ancient colonial times, russia has used it quite effectively. it has relevant relations, including economic relations, it is also not worth it to forget and somehow reverse this situation instantly, especially if ukraine
2:47 am
has not been involved in this direction of foreign policy for a long time , because we cannot say that, for example, in the 1990s or at the beginning of this millennium , we had some extremely productive relations in this area , there is still some way to turn this situation around, well, it probably really requires quite serious efforts, quite serious work, including in the context of debunking those myths that russia uses to influence, for example, information of influence in the countries of africa, it seems that russia is some kind of defender of these very states from some european, it was not clear to alice that they seem to oppose the united states and the like, that is , we must work with all this seriously enough and this is a fact despite the fact that really
2:48 am
er, these regions are important, even if not directly now, but in the strategic context in the strategic perspective, therefore, of course , we need to work in this direction and ukraine should deal with it, i don't think that anyone here is in this situation will object to the words of the ukrainian president, he has addressed these countries several times. you know, here in our chat they ask what viktor pinchuk did at volodymyr zelenskyi's press conference. i will probably say a little here that today the pinchuk foundation and the yalta strategy foundation also organized an informal meeting in kyiv, one year of struggle it continues, it is called and as far as i understood , it was not officially stated anywhere, but as far as i understood that on the sidelines of this event organized by pinchuk somewhere so close to him or in this press conference was held in the same room
2:49 am
. here is this press conference. there is no information, so i will not comment on anything, but it seems that i saw not only pinchuk there. if i am not mistaken , i saw kvasniewski there and maybe someone else. evening to pinchuk and they all came together to zelenskyi's press conference, by the way, there is a question, this is how to consider that pinchuk maintains some influence or is he just a good friend of the president or how can it be explained well, i can't say that i am a special good friend i think that he has certain information opportunities, certain information resources not only in ukraine but outside of ukraine, but i cannot say that in somehow he particularly distinguished himself
2:50 am
, although pinchuk. in this same sphere, he always stood out for me with a much more subtle sense of the situation, yes, and the ability to be friends with the right people , as i already said, not only in ukraine, but also outside of ukraine, which if also in the current situation is probably no less important. well, what about you in general i was surprised that the oligarch was sitting in the first rows at the president's press conference. hmm, well, i guess i was surprised, again, hmm. well , just so you know that something is so extraordinary. well, if he asked a question, this probably surprised me more than one petro oleksiyovych some company, rinat leonidovych, was sitting next to me. yes, then it would probably have been more surprising. but it wasn't surprising
2:51 am
. you know , there was another question from a journalist of the fifth channel. and the direct channel was thrown out of the general marathon, it’s a bit like they reprimanded volodymyr zelenskyi, they mentioned ivan bokanov, and it seemed to me that volodymyr zelenskyi was generally offended by this whole story and he didn’t really want to answer it . well, i wouldn’t say that he somehow did not want to answer, in principle, he answered as he considered necessary, i doubt it, you know, i doubt that the question that was asked was asked with the aim of getting an answer, there are some questions that are not asked with the aim of getting an answer to them, it's just that someone asks a question in such a way , you know such a rhetorical construction, and he is quite satisfied with the opportunity to voice this question, the answers are not really needed here
2:52 am
anymore, and roughly so. voice certain theses well, they were voiced in principle well, now let's return to these theses. please tell me what questions you personally lacked. what did you want to hear from the president, and either no one asked these questions, or maybe they simply didn't get to them, that is, did you receive them? do you have a complete picture of what the president said that you wanted to get, you know where there are many questions that i like and er, i think all ukrainians would really like to receive an answer to them, but i also understand that these questions that actually concern us all the most i am interested, well, there is no one like them you know, it is impossible to give a complete answer for one simple reason that they concern not only ukraine but various aspects of cooperation between ukraine and , for example, western partners . is raised, including by the president
2:53 am
, that is, it is obvious that there are some reasons for this, but it is equally obvious that no one will publicly and officially declare anything like that because we are at war and this is, accordingly, a situation that can cause some corresponding moods in many countries of europe and there are quite a lot of such questions a-a and those questions that were asked well , they are in principle quite logical but again, in the current conditions we cannot count on full information because this, i repeat, does not concern only ukraine , but you know various aspects of such a rather complex configuration of the coalition that was finally formed in the west in order to provide support to ukraine, then we will return to this question about which you said that perhaps we asked a question for the sake of a question
2:54 am
we will listen to him now. we will remind you once more and discuss it. it seemed to me that i had been here since the 24th and i had not gone anywhere, and i think it is important that we did not lose the state, and that is thanks to the people of ukraine and thanks to our armed forces, probably thanks to me a little , if you like it it was unpleasant to hear that many people think so. of course, not everyone and i am not a hero , but i definitely want to do something, since we are here in the de-occupied kiwi, in the decubitus of many cities of our country, i must have done something . we have nato weapons and we are fighting, not
2:55 am
we sign treasonable treaties, the minsk conditions, and so on, why is the meaning that we will win? this is the same as the president, but with what happened, we did not win, and it is very good that despite these or other accusations that i am the president of ukraine, i destroyed the russian presence in the parliament in ukraine, he destroyed the russian tv channels in ukraine, he destroyed the oligarchs. excuse me, one of them is the owner of your channel, petreno. it seems to me that this was a direct answer to petro oleksiyovych poroshenko. it is a question to a large extent. i think. well, this is a question that poroshenko would probably like to ask personally, but it was asked
2:56 am
by journalists and it was such an absentee discussion. well, you know, in fact, i understand why this question has attracted such general attention, and why we are discussing it now , because you probably know that this was the most scandalous episode of this press conference , there were no more scandalous episodes and everyone is interested in discussing the scandal, but i want to tell you that from the point of view of some significance in the context of the ukrainian world politicians, and here the result will be approximately as close to zero, because all these issues have already been discussed with us for a year and will continue to be discussed for a very, very long time . preferences and answers to this question, they will not change their political preferences at night. and in general, to be honest, when i listen to the relevant questions, i have my own question, you know. when they are asked, i understand
2:57 am
that they are asked as, respectively, rhetorical constructs in order to state one's position, but what's next, what's next, what's next, what's next, what's the answer to this question, i honestly don't quite understand, and because if the tasks somehow use it in the political struggle, i personally think that it can be done much more more subtly and much more interesting well, but someone likes it well, okay, he said something like that well, i was here and i did something, and in particular, that's why this country survived , no matter how unpleasant it is for you to hear. and there are many people in ukraine who do not like this hear and therefore that now, in principle, in the conditions of war, sociologists usually avoid, you know, direct sociological polls about, for example, who you would vote for in the presidential elections, but well, in principle
2:58 am
, sometimes such polls appear somewhere. i don't know how to treat them , how relevant they are, but oh well roughly based on these polls, i think you can get an answer to the question of how many people share this opinion and how many people do not share it because, well, we have some corresponding political factions grouping of citizens according to some political preferences or favors of one or another politician this is not some big secret and in accordance with this grouping i think the answer to this question is also present in ukrainian society thank you very much petro oleschuk political scientist we discussed the press conference of volodymyr zelenskyi and all those theses that sounded there today. and for the most part, theses still sounded for the western audience, in particular, probably to
2:59 am
ensure western support for ukraine in the future. thank you very much. well, we we continue our special broadcast, taras zoftenko, an expert on international security of the taras democratic initiative foundation, joins the broadcast . are you in touch with us? yes. congratulations. yes. you know my greetings. zelenskyi and he also stated that ukraine received four leopard tanks from poland . i understand that this is only the beginning because poland promised 14 tanks and then there was a statement that ukraine would receive another 60 tanks from poland . if i am not mistaken, this is polish
3:00 am
a combat tank, that is, it is probably such a brass, it is so symbolic, precisely on the anniversary of the invasion, uh, i wanted to ask you about the tanks, more or less clearly, about the fighter jets, because today volodymyr zelensky was asked about them at the press conference, as well as the same polish prime minister which i brought the tanks, but i said that poland is ready, within the framework of a broad coalition, to establish training for ukrainian pilots and is ready in principle to consider the option of providing ukraine with aviation. the broadest coalition and to fighter jets and in particular to victory because we have just had a very long discussion with oleksiy danilov , yes, he says that if i understood him correctly , there is no consensus regarding a quick victory in the west, and this is the victory of ukraine, and this obviously affects the western military support, what can you say about
