[000:00:00;00] normal, they literally did not finish the plan in that it turns out that there was an option to attach either a stinger or a missile, and for them 90 for self-defense , the americans did not finish it all , plus if we talk about what was about the initiative to give us a raptor, well, you know, i think that our dear colleagues, friends and brothers from bayraktar who pass there will be very upset because it is the bayraktar of tv 2, this rapper from the foreign market, he promotes it so much , so you probably know very well that in the end we did not actually get this rapper because well, you understand, the ripper is expensive to maintain and, well, it is not suitable for joint military operations, it is not very suitable for cutting out such point terrorists. well , the bayraktar somehow fits our conditions . it is much better if we talk about some resource potential there. what is better about them ? in the fact that a russian su-24 flew and was shot down over bakhmut, the russians begin to use aviation with unguided aerial bombs when they have

a situational situation due to some circumstances, that is, you can see that we have such a situation that at the same time they as the rule is applied and their application ends there, that is, after all, we keep this defense while our air defense is working and apply what they dream there of their high-explosive bombs, so far they have not succeeded, and this is pleasing in principle. well, it was ivan kyrychevskiy , a military expert express yaroslav lysenko without the third battalion of the operational assignment of freedom as part of the rapid response brigade of the national guard of ukraine. i thank them, and then serhiy rudenko takes over the air with his verdict. i congratulate serhiy, well, we are waiting from i congratulate you olga literally in a few seconds we will start the verdict glory to ukraine this is the verdict program my name is serhiy rudenko good day and good health to all today

march 15, 385 days of heroic resistance of the ukrainian people to the russian invaders fighters of the 93rd separate mechanized brigade kholodny yar shot down a russian su-24 bomber four enemy ships with salvo caliber 28 missiles continue to be located under the bachmouth in the black sea, a russian su-27 fighter jet shot down a u.s. drone in the international airspace of the black sea of the states of america an q9 washington protested the actions of the russians, meanwhile, the russians continue to lose manpower and equipment in ukraine as of the morning of march 15, russia has already lost 161,520 people in ukraine in the last day alone, the armed forces of ukraine destroyed 980 orks with the beginning of a large war, the russians have already lost in ukraine 1,492 tanks, 6,799 armored fighting vehicles

, 2,528 artillery systems , 502 rocket launchers, 262 air defense systems, 304 aircraft, 289 helicopters, 5,377 units of automotive equipment from 18 ships boats , 907 cruise missiles, 232 drones, 257 units of special equipment, the armed forces of ukraine hold the bakhmut, russian fighter jets shot down a uav of the united states of america , and under the bakhmut, the khlodnoyarivites shot down a su-24. major of the security service of ukraine in reserve, former deputy of the head of the security service of ukraine, mr. generals good day, good health to you and thank you for

joining our broadcast, let's start our conversation with bakhmut is the hottest point on the russian-ukrainian front, yesterday the president of ukraine told about the supreme commander-in-chief's bid, the main focus of the joint strategic grouping of khortytsia and bakhmut troops, the head of state added that there is also a clear position to strengthen the bakhmut direction, we will hear and see volodymyr zelenskyi held today in the meeting of the stake, the reports of the central intelligence committee , the commanders of the directions, the main focus of the asu in khortytsia and bakhmut is a clear position of the entire stake , to strengthen this direction, to destroy the occupier by

to the maximum, general tarnavskyi reported on tavria, this is part of the donetsk directions, part of the southern directions , general moskalyov reported on the situation, condemnation of odesa, general naev in the north, of course, we are always working on the supply of ammunition and weapons at the start. what is happening around the city and what is happening with the russian offensive with the constant attacks that they are organizing on bakhmut well, if we are anchored to the area, it is necessary to understand that the final decision has been made to remain in bahmut until the final, so to speak , completion of preparations for the counterattack, that is , no one will retreat. this is a critical point for our defense, the enemy has concentrated a significant number of personnel and combat

equipment around bakhmut, and it would be logical to understand that if we leave bakhmut , we need to determine the locations of the next defense point, that is, in fact, we will determine another city that the enemy can simply destroy. therefore, while there is an opportunity, there is no of the final threat to our e-e, the decision was made to hold on to this fortress. it is clear that the situation is quite difficult all over the eastern front, including around bakhmut, and the enemy is trying to organize an attack on our position. why do you think the russians have just concentrated on this city of bakhmut and well, in this situation, they don't see any other options than to surround or capture this place. well, in fact, they

always had some uh symbolism , we'll take some city, we'll hang a flag there , we'll announce our victory, uh, it's clear that for gogoshen, for example, his wagnerites, this is the idea of ​​a fix, because they promised everyone and already announced to everyone that bakhmut is actually under their control. and when for several months they cannot move 1 km forward, it means that they are either liars or simply cannot to ensure the fulfillment of the tasks that are set before them, that is, it is not worth having a conversation with them at all. in other words, it is about geopolitics in their understanding at the level of the russian state, so it is clear that if someone is promised something, it is this city must be brought under control and they must really announce to their tsars society that we have closed

this topic and are moving forward and what really is victory victories there are no such excuses there about advancing 100 m in one direction and 100 m in the second no are not accepted until they are able to inform their society about a significant victory, it is actually an operation . their so-called vladyslav impasse is a big one. the victory that russia is counting on is huge losses , of course. in the first two months of 2023, russia has already lost more than 50,000 soldiers. not taking into account sanitary losses, these are colossal figures, and if you actually look at the ip or compare these losses with any losses of russia over the last 80 years, then these are the largest losses since the beginning or end

of the second world war, do you think the russians still have a limit of losses for russia when these losses will be painful for them? unfortunately, there was already an expert assessment when they compared it with the brothers of the war in afghanistan, and it was clear that those losses 15,000 e.e., about 15,000 people were declared to be the soviet union, they were a burden not so much for central e.e. russia as much for those republics that represented the soviet union at that time, well, in particular, ukraine then lost three or so thousand and for itself a very critical figure. imagine there is some small moldova or the baltic countries where er. today it is much less than in ukraine and there were also such figures there, they were significant and

it was from there that er, such a popular crowd that did not accept this war and these incomprehensible losses what a soviet army i suffered in an unknown country for unknown reasons , on the other hand, in the russian federation at that time, the topic was completely ignored and no one raised such critical issues, by the way, i am talking about the european republics of the soviet union, and a significant number of dead was from central asia, because there they tried to use muslim soldiers in this war, and he was talking about what a field shock in the russian federation simply does not exist in our country, we can face a situation when 500

000 will not be a shock for them, it is a different situation - it is still a worsening of the economic situation against the background of these losses , then yes, then it is possible a refrigerator and some moments related to the loss of the one who feeds them is the lack of the payments they are counting on the lack of any understandable explanations and where is my husband and why is he considered missing and missing, maybe this will at least somehow affect this situation otherwise no russia is already planning to raise the lower bar of the conscription age to 21 and the upper to 30 currently , military service in the russian federation is coming to an end from 18 to 27 years old, can this initiative be perceived as an attempt to attract more people to the army in order to compensate for the losses

in the war in ukraine? i don't think so, but we still need to take into account such a physiological point , in fact, in russia, there is a significant problem with those young people who are 18 years, they are simply not physically ready to perform certain tasks, and russia is forced to raise the bar until the 21st year. they do not know whether it is related to the climate there or to the way of life there . well, but we have seen those so-called sects why in which and how they look even today they imagine with themselves, so it is clear that they will kill 18-year-old children. they definitely do not benefit them. well, but this is such a separate opinion about the possibility of raising this age. and the fact that they involve older men is clearly an attempt to

... people and an attempt to er just cover the shortage of contract workers that they have now fantastic and i don't think they will succeed because they couldn't collect 300,000 e-e in time, even just mobilized, and 400 contract workers who are able to e-e several years to perform some tasks e in the army, well, it will be a very difficult task, generals, it happened yesterday one event which, in principle, indicates that the collision between russia and the united states of america, which is constantly repeated

by russian propagandists on propaganda tv channels, is very close because the american cbs tv channel yesterday showed how the russian court 27 shot down a drone of the air force in the united states of america mq 9-9s drone has been in service in the united states of america since 2001, these drones killed the leaders of al qaeda in yemen and afghanistan, so here is this drone , which actually is well, a powerful plane, because it may not fly at a distance of up to 10,000 kilometers at a speed of 400 km/h after the russians actually shot down this drone minister to minister over the black sea in international airspace

of defense of the united states of america lloyd austin asked eight senators from both parties to send f16 fighter jets to ukraine and the americans summoned the russian ambassador to the united states of america to the state department and expressed their protest against their e-e drone e-e flight edition politico reports that after talking with american ukrainian and foreign leaders working to support ukraine at the munich security conference last month, these senators are turning to the minister of the defense of the united states of america, we believe that the united states of america needs to carefully consider the provision of f-16 aircraft to ukraine - this will be a significant opportunity that can change the rules of the game on the battlefield, considering this story with the downed drone and that how did russia try to get out of this situation? does this mean that in

the current situation, a collision between russia and the united states of america is more likely than ever , that this is quite such a close prospect considering the behavior of the russians in the international in the airspace over the black sea, look, you have to understand that starting somewhere in the 80s, in the soviet army, in the border troops, the concept of pushing out the enemy from the state border of poland was adopted. yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, at sea, and in the air , we have repeatedly observed uh actions. well, i do n't know professional and unprofessional, some kind of wild ones, when soviet ships went to uh

ram american warships which were approaching the state border in the soviet union, then in russia, the most interesting case was in 1988 in the black sea , when the ship of the border service of the border service actually attacked with its side and damaged the american ship they actively used these air tactics, especially on the border with the soviet union and the united states in the far east, we took tracks when in the strait when they raised their planes and tried to prevent the patrolling of this zone by the planes of the united states, they actively

were used in the baltic states, and this is one of those apogees, for sure, of such a tactic of using the enemy's adversary in their zone, how do they consider responsibility, in fact, it is a huge mistake of theirs that it is one thing if this aircraft was in their space, and quite another to demonstrate such maneuvers in the international space, i think that this will not remain without a response from the united states. our response will not be direct, but rather paradoxical. i think that it will still affect the aid to ukraine for armaments and weapons. the one who gave the command for the actual downing of this drone will still regret it, and i emphasize it once again, the maneuvers should have ended with such a fact, because what was produced by the planes of

russia and on the black sea, it is over the baltic sea in the mediterranean sea, in the immediate vicinity of our ships of partners it was supposed to end with such a cover-up case well, it must be said that this reconnaissance drone costs 65 million dollars that is, it is quite expensive states of america well, when at the time when the russians shot down this drone, putin went to lana de and flew on the mi 171a2 helicopter simulator, and now we will see how it all happened, because yesterday putin talked a lot about the fact that the war in ukraine is me, the war

for russian peace and actually a lot of different statements. well, you see, there is a new pilot , vladimir putin, but this is a mi 171a2 helicopter simulator. of course, it is not an f16, and it is clear that the owner of the kremlin needs to demonstrate at least some achievements and successes. well, he sat down on the simulator of this helicopter, over the past year, we have heard many different versions of why putin started a war against ukraine, de-denification, demilitarization, support for russian -speaking people, a war for who is the boss in the world. well , this was roughly the rhetoric, and yesterday he said that the war for, er, russian peace is exactly what it is. war in ukraine, according to you, does this russian

peace remain in ukraine since february 24, 2022, when actually these representatives of this russian world also began to drop russian missiles on their heads and hit residential areas of people who were supporters of this russian world. unfortunately, it must be stated that the representatives of the russian world or their and its bearers still remain in ukraine. and other carriers who are being exposed in state bodies and in the army and, unfortunately, in the security service, that is why i hope that they have become radically fewer

, because i have seen some people who seem to be sympathetic to this idea, who are actively took up arms and are really fighting for ukraine. well, there it is, either with arms in hand or by some other method, they show that they are, well, definitely not apologists for this world. our society has some of the versions and the treatment of this disease is very long. unfortunately, but i hope that we are on the right path and it will be exactly that concept of patriotic education and improvement of our society and the development of the arts that will allow us to break away from this -is

diseases and to close it once and not always quite a powerful center of this russian world until now was and remains the church of the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate . of the kyiv-pechers lavra and we know that the state audit service concluded that 36 buildings were illegally built on the territory of the kyiv-pechers lavra by the abbot of the kyiv-pechers lavra, pavel lebedny himself the abbot, whose name is pasha mercedes, says that he will not leave and the monks will not leave the territory of the kyiv-pechersk lavra, do you not see the danger now in the fact that what we talked about quite a long time ago in our broadcasts, that the russian orthodox church in ukraine and the branch can be used for internal

destabilization during a possible offensive , for example, the russians expected great offensive or to create certain prerequisites for the creation of an internal front in ukraine , well, clearly, this is just one of those moments that need to be looked at very seriously but i think that it is necessary to follow a very simple path , the whole history of this church in the territory of ukraine is closed on one word, based on the economy, there will be no economic base , there will not be money pouring into their pockets there will be no mercedes conditionals. i think they will understand very quickly that their policy is wrong , cut off those sources of funding that they have and put them on equal terms with some, i don't know

, cooperatives let them figure out where they come from funds and for such er masterpieces as mercedes villas and yachts there , roughly speaking -e church buildings in remote areas of ukraine for e-e using them as remittance bases e-e creating counterfeit products i think that such facts should be disclosed and demonstrated to people and e the less they will have the opportunity to manipulate those persons who the circle they have created around themselves, however, we will heal

sooner and it is clear that they need to make a picture demonstratively there, you know, to make the forced people there, drive them out somewhere with sticks, there is something else that needs to be done, they will go themselves, they are quite intelligent in terms of not bringing the situation to the edge but if they try to fight , listen, well, let's see, let's see who will stand up for them , you understand. i said for a long time that there is no need for any regressive bodies, just put a representative of the military commissariat and let him what kind of people are there, young, beautiful and healthy, not at the front, not on the register in slovakia, but walking around and trying to obstruct something or other about our security agencies, one more question, mr. general, is the future of the international tribunal in the hague because the new york times writes that the international tribunal is opening two war crimes cases against russia, so far

there are two cases concerning the abduction of children and attacks on peaceful infrastructure, at the same time dmitry piskun, who is putin's press secretary, says that russia does not recognize international tribunals. at the same time, ukraine reported that a dossier has been collected on 600 russian military commanders who are suspected of war crimes on the territory of ukraine. prosecutors have already drawn up a table with the names and photos of those suspected of committing war crimes. i ask you how of a person who served in the security service of ukraine for more than 20 years, how realistic is it to identify and the main thing is to prove the guilt of those who are in these tables and diagrams and to prove that it is vasya ivanov who is the captain of the armed forces forces of russia, it was he who took part in war crimes and committed these war crimes on

the territory of ukraine. well, in fact , those men who are shown are the people who are really documented already. that is, there are indisputable facts with links to the documents, er, all the people who are shown on to that scheme, they either gave orders or signed some documents, therefore, it greatly simplifies the performance of certain tasks for documenting their criminal activities. another question is about the direct executors of the rank-and-file sergeants who do nothing signed but kept these orders, this will be a problem, and regarding the court, we need to transfer the materials to this international court as soon as possible because, god forbid, we will reach a situation when some geopolitical negotiations will begin there, i can guarantee you that first of all, the issue of

the issue of victory will be the refusal of criminal prosecution of war criminals. this has already been repeatedly confirmed, so when will the process proceed, when will the materials be handed over, when will it be handled not by the ukrainian side, but by the international side? at least there is some, there is some guarantee that it will be brought to an end, otherwise they will not admit something to someone there and somewhere they have closed their uh , such shells. i think that this will end all of this. they will be closed from society and the world for a long time. they will not be able to anyway er, even the experience of the yugoslavs showed that if he did not hide for a long time, people change, circumstances change, the world changes , governments change, and the responsibility will come to everyone

who is responsible for the crime. of the international tribunal, we know that putin has presidential immunity , but this immunity does not apply in cases related to war crimes, crimes against humanity, crimes against humanity . do you believe that putin and his current czars of his clique will be brought to the international tribunal? about putin, i still believe that he will not live to see you. because, you know, i would like to see him on the dock, but i have the impression that by his actions he is simply the president of the fact that they themselves will take him away because they have such a witness, they have such responsibility for theirs, it’s definitely not necessary, i think that some of them should sit and they will sit, and will putin live? well, i don’t know, i’d like to believe it, but i don’t believe it. thank you, mr. generals, it was a major general of the security service of ukraine in reserve
