weapons have almost added humenyuk february 26 , the day of crimean resistance to russian occupation is a commemorative date for the anniversary of the rally of crimean tatars and ukrainians in simferopol in support of the territorial integrity of ukraine, on this occasion activists of the yellow ribbon civil movement continue resistance in sevastopol, the process is evidenced by new graffiti and yellow ribbons that send a clear message to the occupiers. the results of the year of the great war, our leading editors and journalists collected money almost every day for thermal imaging cameras, sleeping bags, combat vehicles and other needs of ukrainian defenders you always joined our meetings, dear tv viewers. so how did we help the military in the rear, further in our story
10:07 am
, we actually started our team volunteering since the days of the euromaidan revolution of dignity, from the first days of the full-scale war , we gathered, uh, in the team, we decided that we would participate as much as possible not only on the information front, but also on the volunteer front, every day our leading journalists and editors do not lose the opportunity to attract viewers to do a good deed, we announce meetings on our tv channel on the website at viewers see it on social networks. and sometimes during an hour and on the air, we can collect 50-60,000 hryvnias, which is very nice because you feel that your viewer is not only watching you, but he is also doing something specific during the year of the great war, as if the espressovs collected for drones sleeping bags, generators, as well as thermal imagers. we received a request from one
10:08 am
of the brigades of the armed forces of ukraine. they needed special equipment. it seemed like a small box, but they will help our military to see the enemy in any weather and at any time of the day. that is, we understand again that it saves the lives of our soldiers. later , money was collected and for the soldiers in sterling, it also somehow happened very quickly. because i and her , some people wait for two to three months. here we found it in a warehouse and somehow it also happened so quickly. well, we really are one big family and we all support each other in any, even very difficult situations, so i believe that the whole country cannot be defeated, and the other day we managed to close a collective car for paramedics on the bakhmut direction, the transport is extremely necessary for evacuating the wounded from the front line, we offered them that we can also find a car for them and drive them there, but i will not say that they will buy it themselves, because there
10:09 am
must be certain medical and technological things that they need, that is, i thank our viewers very much and users of our digital network and readers of the site need to join and help in such a good volunteer work, when this volunteer team twice a month on their day off, tv channel employees gather to please ukrainian soldiers with sweets vitamin mixtures of cranberry, lemon, ginger and orange, we make about 50 liters of useful deliciousness at a time, and this is very important now for our soldiers at the front who must strengthen their immunity during the winter. well, this part of our heat, i think that this energy should also be transferred and in addition to the fact that there is a certain vitamin mixture, personnel help, plus it is our hearts, rain and our wishes, everything that is being done to help our armed forces, from these fruit
10:10 am
mixtures to volunteer collections for weapons on ammunition for thermal underwear, all this is incredibly important because you perfectly understand that people who sacrifice their lives and health for the sake of ukraine, in principle, give us the opportunity to do all this and other work , raise children, just live now with a press . they opened a new collection at the battery station , these devices with solar battery stations with panels are shockproof and work under difficult natural conditions, which is why our defenders are very necessary this is all the news, the next issue , don't miss it at 11:00 and read more on our website espresso.tv, a summary of the main points on our telegram channel, news of espresso.tv , the most interesting information and videos on our

10:13 am
at the us national security council glory to ukraine hon. mr. embassy, glory to the heroes, the president of the united states made a historic visit at a historic moment during a full-scale russian invasion. yes, but the most important thing is not even that he flew to the eastern flank of nato, not even that he came to kyiv , although this also commands great respect, but he held extremely important coordination meetings, in particular, this concerns the entire eastern flank of nato, and we understand that there are certain additional things that did not make it into the official protocols regarding the visit to kyiv, as president zelensky said. this is probably the most significant visit of any american official to ukraine, and i agree with this because biden, as the leader of the trans -atlantic family, unlike other european leaders, has not yet been to kyiv. he had to go there to demonstrate his courage and, of course, to oppose moscow's statement that biden is already a frail old man detached
10:14 am
from the people and therefore cannot be a global leader. but the most important thing for ukraine, of course , is that the us president is the first history was able to visit a combat zone that is not under the control of the american military, showing that he is ready to take such a risk and demonstrating his strong support for ukraine, which is constantly growing, so the visit of president biden to kyiv was an extremely important political symbol when it comes to the meeting of the bucharest nine, i.e. nine of advanced nato states closest to ukraine. i believe that this is also an extremely important strategic symbol of nato unity, and these countries as a whole have historically been the most concerned and most aware of president putin's aggressive claims against ukraine and the threat he poses to the territory of nato anal are also countries that were occupied by russia during the soviet union
10:15 am
, so they need to be reassured, these countries must understand that the leader of nato takes their concerns into account and even if in some other parts of nato ukraine is supported may change somewhat, but remain strong, it is important to show them that, as biden said, all nato countries have united to deter russia from any aggression against nato territory, why both visits of president byron were so important. the thing is that the far-right, the most extremist part of the republican party in washington, which we have already discussed before, suggests that it is possible that the united states should reduce its aid to ukraine if donald trump is re-elected as president. i am very worried about what support from the united states will be for such circumstances, but these elections are still far away, i would not start predicting that president trump will win, that the president
10:16 am
of the united states could bring to kyiv, we understand that it is important. this is historic and it is a huge risk for president joseph biden, but he took this risk, and accordingly, this means that we have either some historical moment, that is , it is possible to talk about some big geopolitical bargains with the russian federation, maybe with china, and so on, that is, the president of the united states for manifested himself when he came to kyiv what is the western world here on one side on the other side well, we understand that it would be possible to somehow postpone it, he could come, i don't know, to transcarpathia or to lviv no, he came to kyiv and the most interesting moment: the kremlin did not commit a military provocation. and here i would like to ask you, dear mr. ambassadors, in your opinion, why the kremlin did not launch a missile attack on kyiv, and what could be the response from the united states. did the biden administration
10:17 am
warn or warn russia that the president biden is going to visit kyiv the white house warned the kremlin in advance, which clearly indicates the responsible behavior of washington if moscow, in turn, carried out air raids or missile strikes on kyiv at the time when biden was there, she would have suffered a huge blow from the point of view of international public opinion, and possibly even within russia, since there is an international political and legal understanding that countries do not try to kill major powers, despite the fact that russia grossly violated international law by invading ukraine. is trying to manage international relations with the public and , frankly speaking, they are doing well because outside of europe, the usa, japan, australia, new
10:18 am
zealand and other countries, almost two-thirds the world sympathizes, the kremlin well understood that it would lose this support if it did something so imprudent as launching missiles after being warned about biden's visit, but on the other hand, putin did not give any clear , comprehensible, tough answer, so everyone expected that putin would start very tough, well, at least rhetorically plans to try to realize his persian fantasies or ambitions, the only thing he did of such importance was freeze or suspend the treaty on strategic offensive weapons, it is important to focus it was at your words that putin decided to freeze and suspend the implementation of the treaty on the reduction of strategic offensive arms, but not to withdraw from it and not to cancel this treaty . i think that putin is sending a signal to the united states that the entire system of arms control
10:19 am
has existed since the 1970s, starting with the treaty on anti-missile defense of 1972 , from which the usa withdrew in 2002, by the way, is no longer effective, he wants to sow fear, especially in europe , that the usa is behaving dangerously, which can lead to a nuclear confrontation not only between the usa and russia, but also between europe and russia, that is why putin is using this threat in an attempt to undermine the unity of the transatlantic community in support of ukraine, but as i said, he did not mention that russia withdrew from the agreement, because in this case he would be working against his goal of driving a wedge between europe and the usa in fact, however, the practical impact of this step is small, because at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, russia did not allow any inspection that was foreseen earlier , namely several times a year, each party and russia and
10:20 am
the usa, according to the treaty, have the right to provide the announcement that in the near future they will make a visit to observe whether the other party is complying with the agreement or not russia did not allow this at first due to the pandemic and then when the pandemic subsided when russia invaded ukraine, the continuation of this kind of political cooperation became impractical . this is another symbolic gesture is aimed at sowing fear and there is no reason why strategic stability will be undermined in any way if russia freezes the implementation of the treaty, well, in any case, mr. ambassador i don't see that you look frightened. i don't see that the united states is too frightened by this extremely undiplomatic and dangerous russian step, that is, as far as i understand, the united states will not be surprised and in the event of something would be ready
10:21 am
to give an adequate response according to the treaty, each side can keep 1550 of nuclear warheads, russia has kept this number while the united states has 1,420 nuclear warheads, so this is enough to deter any russian attack on the united states with nuclear weapons the question of whether russia will tactically use nuclear weapons in ukraine is a completely different question and it depends entirely on whether president putin comes to the conclusion that , frankly, he himself will face an existential threat if ukraine defeats the russian army on the battlefield p masandra in your opinion for what purpose did the head of chinese diplomacy, the head of the so-called foreign
10:22 am
department of the central committee of the people's republic of china, ivan carry out his great european voyage, and what could one bring and what could this chinese peace plan be, about which everyone is talking a lot i certainly do not think that the chinese peace plan can affect anything, first of all, it is unlikely that xi jinping is really interested in playing the role of mediator, as turkey tried to do, they did not show any interest in active involvement , instead, china is trying to balance from the point of view of its own strategic interests these days a meeting of the minister of foreign affairs of china with president putin and minister of foreign affairs lavrov took place . speaking about the sino-russian partnership, the minister of foreign affairs of china used a term that translates as strong as a rock, but this time he did not repeat the phrase that the sit-stump and vladimir putin used during the meeting with russia's invasion of ukraine, namely
10:23 am
that china and russia have a partnership without limits, it is obvious that it is trying to limit russia , and this is where i see the balance of china's approaches to war, if it concerns the use of nuclear weapons, it is no secret that these ding-pis strongly advised president putin not to do this during their last meeting, as in the rendering mode, china wants an end to the war with from the point of view of balance, he wants to preserve his principle of supporting the territorial integrity of states, and here the matter concerns taiwan, and the balance is that china is not a supporter of russia occupying and dividing ukraine. from the point of view of china, we can consider russia's illegal invasion of ukraine as an attempt to restore the territorial integrity
10:24 am
of russia from the point of view of putin, who, as we know , violated the international law with its assertion that ukraine does not have the right to exist inclines the international community to accusations of genocide, but in chinese strategic thinking there is a conflict . there is no clear interpretation of territorial integrity, and therefore china would simply like the war to end without pushing ukraine away, since china conducts active trade with it wants peace, but does not demonstrate readiness for active mediation, however, everyone knows that there is no chance that ukraine will simply say ok, let's stop the war now without of the spring offensive, which aims to restore the territorial integrity of ukraine, forgive me for trying for so long to explain my opinion that the chinese peace plan will lead nowhere , well, a strange but characteristic moment, so we understand that the chinese would like to sell
10:25 am
themselves as great peacemakers in quotes, of course , from the other side well, it is extremely strange that van flew to moscow and not to kyiv , that is, as far as i understand, if china had serious intentions to intervene, or somehow i don’t know how to try to extinguish russian aggression, then you and first of all, he should talk with the leadership of the top political leadership of ukraine, this is what he tried to prove in his previous answer that china has no serious intentions to be a mediator or a peacemaker , the fundamental strategic interest of china at this stage is to help resist the dominance of the united states on the world stage, due to the support of russia and president putin, who is a global figure who seeks to undermine the international system of rules
10:26 am
, multilateralism that arose after the second world war and all the efforts made by the usa at the time. beijing will always lean towards moscow in this conflict, it will never be a peacemaker. but again, as i already said , beijing is a conflict and because of its support for the principle of territorial integrity , including in ukraine, but of course in the first i agree that if beijing wanted to play the role of a peacemaker , then the minister of foreign affairs would come to kyiv , but this is not the case, so he simply wants to avoid being against russia and at the same time not to be too favorable to russia in this conflict in your opinion. when will this moment come, what will be its most characteristic signs that would prove that russia will be ready or russia will be forced to enter into negotiations because we understand that, in general , there are two bloody scenarios before us, and that is, large battles or attempts by the russians to freeze and somewhat
10:27 am
reduce intensity but somewhat so without stopping hostilities. and where will this be determined by the success of ukraine's military operations in the upcoming spring offensive? putin is absolutely determined to destroy ukraine and he will do it if he is not stopped. will never sit down at the negotiating table in a spirit of goodwill if he wins on the battlefield we are already trained by the minsk process putin simply used the time between 2014 and 2022 to strengthen russia's military presence , increase its capabilities and prepare for an invasion of ukraine this is exactly what he would do now if a ceasefire was reached as a result of some negotiations , the only option is to defeat it on the battlefield as we know russia is facing serious challenges and difficulties it has run out of regular troops it has few
10:28 am
of ammunition and it cannot manufacture ammunition due to sanctions recently announced that they can no longer recruit conscripts even from prison there is an intense political struggle between adventure and military russia especially minister shoigu and the chief of the general staff and the head of the military operation in ukraine gerasim i think that putin knows that in a totalitarian or authoritarian state like his russia, such competing centers of power must be separated, the people who control the military force must be separated, otherwise they may rebel against him, i am trying to say that russia's military situation is quite dangerous, people whom putin is ready to sacrifice as cannon fodder during the attacks and shelling of the defense of ukraine. putin hopes that ukraine will be exhausted on the battlefield and that its friends and partners will at some point stop providing it with such decisive military assistance i will remind you that ukraine is ready
10:29 am
for a decisive victory this spring, then a difficult question will arise: will ukraine continue to advance and liberate crimea, which is advocated by my dear friend, whom i greatly respect general benhojes, or will collective action exert pressure on ukraine to stop hostilities at this moment. it will be a difficult political decision, and it is then that putin can sit down at the negotiating table, in particular understanding that if he loses crimea, it will be both an existential political defeat for him and a physical existential threat after ukraine decisively gains victory over russia on the battlefield outside crimea will be a very tense moment of deciding whether to continue liberating crimea as far as i understood president joseph biden when he arrived in kyiv and in warsaw he demonstrated
10:30 am
something, but not only demonstrations, but also the readiness to use specific forces, in particular, it is also about ground units. of course, this is necessary, it is connected with the amazing behavior of ukrainian society both on the battlefield and with its unity in supporting the military effort. i mean people who do not fight on the front lines, but actively support the success of the military - this is the society that forced the usa and its allies to say ok, now we see that ukraine is capable of winning and therefore are ready to take the risks of escalating the conflict by providing ukraine with the necessary weapons ukraine can defeat russia on the battlefield. therefore, it is a risk worth taking because we must see the victory of ukraine on the battlefield and ukraine can do it. therefore, ukraine must be provided with more powerful weapons and we have seen how the united states and its european allies step by step step over each of their red lines, at first no longer-range missiles were foreseen here
