[000:00:00;00] which we do not want to talk about now during the war, but no one should expect anything good, this is also clear. ukraine can only survive as a democratic european sovereign state in which there is not a country that will be for the government, but the government for the country, and communication is the most important tool that is an indicator the absence of authoritarian tendencies in the leadership of such a country, everyone should also be aware of this, and i will not give an assessment of the speech of the washington post officer , i will simply say that the person did not do this anonymously , the person allowed himself to be photographed, they said do not hide your call sign behind anonymous sources, because as you can see, a large part of this article is based on the anonymous testimony of representatives of the president 's office. i absolutely believe my colleagues from

the washington post that these are representatives of the president's office, only they say almost the same thing, only they do not give their surnames and are photographed and do not lose their positions, although it is possible that it is much easier to fire several officials from the office of the president than to actually fire a combat commander, especially since 2014 when asked if we simply change officials, ministers of any political leadership of the country, how much are we losing? no, we are not losing anything, but the main thing is to preserve the institution of power, so that there is continuity of power, so that there is a legitimate head of state, in any case, this is important , everything else can be changed, as we see, you saw personnel changes are already taking place during the war, they are nothing, they do not affect anything, now the administration will resign now, it is surprising that this did not happen two years ago, the ministers demanded a rate because, according to china, the head of luhansk will be of the regional administration will resign because there will be a production in kazakhstan, this is a normal

personnel job, but the combat commander is the question of who will replace him. if you now make an unsuccessful personnel appointment, let's say in the ministry that it is bad, but it can be fixed . and there, too, the elections may not succeed because something will be lost, some position will be lost, some people will die if there is no adequate command, this must always be remembered. so, i will not discuss the appropriateness of the er speech in the er american leadership. i'm just i think about the proportionality of the reprimands are proportional. yes, it was possible to take responsibility otherwise, issue a reprimand for the e, talk to the person and not expel him from the combat position. if he had exhausted all the possibilities of communication, then he would not have voiced it so surely in public , just again, people

people have different characters. i especially remind us once again not to judge because a person is at the front, everything will be what i thought in the studio. is in a combat position, this is a different psychology, you thought that a person in a combat position has nothing to lose, the generals in the headquarters have that the representative of the official's office still has a lot to lose, and a person risks his life every day , well, this is also reality, this is what we must remember when we discuss it and here i should say so. the country has to understand its military even when they commit wrong actions. i would like them to appreciate the defenders and not exchange them like that. well, i am

saying this because it may turn out in the end that the number of reserves is so exhaustive, mr. vitaliy , i suggest discussing the visit of the leader of china sedinpin to moscow, and there is also information that he plans to talk to zelensky, but perhaps in an online format. do you think there will be some pressure on volodymyr zelenskyi i don't know if vladimir putin is possible. i think that it is easier for china to put pressure on putin than on zelenskyi. well, what can oleksii dempin put pressure on zelenskyi, what does china do for ukraine, the more it will offer? what to offer because there is a huge problem china needs to decide on the first point of its peacemaking program when it talks about the territorial integrity of the participants as well as all countries and i how it considers the territorial integrity of ukraine how it considers the territorial integrity of russia because if it considers it as territorial integrity russia in its international exit

borders then you need to put pressure on the way if he considers the territorial values ​​of russia and the constitutional borders then he needs to admit to put pressure on zelenskyi however again then another question that can be asked to zelenskyi and in our territorial integrity do you perceive your own in international external borders as constitutional but in those or those borders that do not coincide with the borders of the russian federation well, this is also an interesting question and until that moment, until we are possessed the answer to this question has absolutely no meaning what i will say these diamp because this conflict today is connected with two fundamental things territorial integrity and security all calls can talk about the fact that russia feels a lack of security, well, the chinese say this all the time that they understand the problems of russia. i think that this is a completely speculative question, that it is idiocy, that in fact the russians

absolutely do not care whether we are in nato or in it. and this was shown by the history of finland, sweden, and finland is already joining before nato , it has a huge common border with russia, and putin somehow does not die of a heart attack. unfortunately , well, that means, but this is a separate conversation. and there is the issue of territorial integrity, even if you imagine that it is discussed on negotiations, the question still arises. and what do the borders of these two look like? a statesman can ask this question, but he will not be able to answer it, because if he says yes , we consider crimea, donetsk, luhansk, kharkiv , kherson, zaporizhzhia regions to be the territory of ukraine, then this will mean that the security of russia can be guaranteed, but before that, russia must leave the captured territories. well, it must be said that way, you know. we want ukraine to be a neutral state, not to join nato, not

to have strategic relations with the allied states did not have shock weapons on their territory, which block russia, but its entire territory should be international exit borders, you can all these rocks well, i think and if he cannot say this, what does it matter what he will say there? i think that in general we are not talking about the peace plan, we are talking about a completely different situation , the other situation is related to beijing's search for options for untied hands, these calls are coming to putin , the lord is telling him something, oh, they are already talking in the middle of nowhere, we share china's opinion, and why are they they share it, and because they believe that everything is international, there are borders of states, their borders include crimea , e.e., kherson, zaporizhzhia, luhansk, and donetsk regions, and ukrainian borders are not included. that's why we need to agree on how it is said, you know the territorial realities. well, then everything is

fine. at this stage recognize territorial realities neutrality disarmament give us the opportunity to seize something else and then new territorial realities recognized realities temporarily occupied territories yes realities temporarily occupied territories and if putin tells him yes and zelensky says no, then all the champion mountaineers. you see, we thought they were a peace-loving state, they have such a war, they don't want peace, they don't want peace. well, we have to help russia because ukraine doesn't want peace . and russia, what do we want sanctions against it, that is, sisinpin, now these visits and these negotiations are planned in order to legitimize their help to russia in the future, because the very idea of ​​the peace plan is that sanctions are impossible against an aggressive country and that these sanctions cannot exist if there is no decision

of the un security council, this is an absolutely pro-russian thesis, which means that there will be no decision of the un security council, if the decision of the un security council can be endured by russia, then russia can do whatever it wants without fearing any economic pressure on itself from on april 1, they will preside there. well, it’s generally a formal matter, that’s exactly what we are very afraid of. for some reason, they will be the head. it doesn't sound very political, but everything that is connected with the world right now is very of course it doesn't sound very good, but there are no tools because any attempt to replace the hunger strike in the un security council is to blame the un, no one wants to because the security council he is an instrument of interaction of a nuclear state. that is, it is not the osce, you cannot expel the russian delegation here. russia can cease to be a member of the un security council only if it gets rid of nuclear weapons, that is, it can

be excluded as a betrayal of security, but this will not change the importance of not influencing what can i say? i think that it is not worth expecting a miracle from the visit of all zimpin . i don't really believe in the chinese capabilities when it comes to this, they say, oh , china is now trying to be a global power , so it is perfectly mediocre, so that between the wounds of saudi arabia and wounds saudi arabia are undemocratic countries and of course saudi arabia about everyone and relations with the united states can find a common language with china . i am not saying that there is no war there. that we can to build some special relations with china into our relations and that china will be able to guarantee us sovereignty and somehow agree

on the end of the war and so on, i clearly say that there is one important condition that, in principle, promises us the normalization of relations with the people's republic of china once some economic dividends from china 2 maybe there will be good in the future although the chinese always give money along with the arrival of chinese companies with chinese personnel , but there is an indispensable condition that we see in china good relations with the republic of belarus more moreover, i even allow that oleksandr lukashenko can come to an agreement with tsimpid that all zenpin will be the guarantor of its sovereignty if russia encroaches on it, but the conditions are two bad relations with the west and good relations with russia, the road to beijing well, now there is a road to beijing lies through moscow

, it is impossible to bypass moscow hoping for good relations with beijing. maybe if you are in central asia, but i would like to remind you again that all central asian states have normal relations with russia. is fighting, and many make such true vienna speeches. kazakhstan, kyrgyzstan, tajikistan, members of the eurasian economic union and the odc, uzbekistan has a special truhman with russia. they are also not part of the various unions there, but their leaders have a special relationship with vladimir putin , traditionally. and we are from russia in in a state of war, any person who will tell you that it is possible to build some kind of exclusive relations with china, being from russia in a state of war, will save you once, then

ukraine is a democratic state in ukraine completely different informational and political atmosphere than in china and ukraine, the communist party is prohibited and siting between us is said not only by the head of the people 's republic of china, he is the general secretary of the central committee of the communist party of katet and i want to remind you that some of the deputies of the pro-government factions that last year wanted to gain some experience from the party of china and introduce it in ukraine or from business interests or from the other , we still have to remember that this ruling party appeared out of nowhere literally for a few days and i will reflect the political ignorance of the ukrainian society as such. and for this political ignorance of the ukrainian society as such , we pay a high price and will pay even more so that this is not an illustration of politics - it is an illustration of politics. i would even say that china

is a big rich country is being reformed well, in principle, we do not notice the whole rule of these dolphins - this is the end of the chinese reforms we have . this is not the china that was in the times of even khuzintau, like putin's russia - this is not yeltsin's russia, if you do not carefully monitor this you can think that a lot has changed in russia since 2000, and a lot has changed in russia, we can see it in china in two terms of cd-in-pin, a lot has also changed and a lot will change, what will happen next, we also discussed last week how china will develop and influence geopolitics. by the way, the institute for the study of war wrote about the fact that the kremlin will continue to use lukashenka in particular for cooperation, say, with iran . lukashenka

also talked about china. putin himself cannot i think that lukashenko, when he goes to beijing early, he solves his own problems, this is also an exaggeration of the fact that lukashenka is in a special relationship with putin, he depends on political and economic leave . this is an absolutely logical role because, you know, mussolini was an ally of hitler, but it is not necessary to fulfill foreign policy tasks. hitler had his own political interests and tried to realize them, maybe he didn't there was a lot of room for maneuver. nevertheless, lukashenka also had interests. it is quite obvious that he is not coming to iran in order to, er, promote some russian interests there. this is some kind of delusion. even if the institute for the study of war writes there, lukashenko can agree on the supply of weapons, let's say

but as we can see, russia calmly buys paradise drones. why am i lukashenko? the economic situation and he may simply not want to depend solely on the feedback of russian aid, he may want to sell some tractors or get some weapons or get some towers for the security forces, well, that is , a lot of problems lukashenko himself can discuss from the flight if putin needs something from the iranians he will not send lukashenka there, he will send medvedev patrushev, well, it does not look like that. i think that this is not a completely incorrect assessment of reality, but it all indicates that all these countries are rallying towards moscow and lukashenko to beijing, medvedev to leave, then you don't go to moscow, then patroshev to iran, then lukashenka to iran, they and you, all these people are in a state of communication with each other because they are in such a common defense, but come on

russia china tairan will be held already started from today, it seems in the uman bay of training they conducted them in 2020 and in 2022. vitaliy, now this is purely training for the sake of training , let’s say. all the time he says that switzerland cannot be an intermediary between russia and ukraine, something else russia and something else uh because switzerland has introduced sanctions against uh russia, this despite the fact that switzerland does not sell weapons to ukraine and does not allow the sale of swiss weapons and exports tries to adhere to certain natural positions, we say that we cannot help but see crimes against humanity and to acet them, and at the same time, it means that russia believes that switzerland is not a neutral state and cannot imprison, and china can be in the middle when

he conducts joint military exercises with russia, but i am curious that this also looks like some kind of schizophrenia, that is, if these calls he wants to be a non-stop mediator between putin and zelensky, how can he explain that his army is training together with the russian army, the army that kills ukrainians for joint training is another joint science , the search for new opportunities for war , if a chinese trains with russians, he passes on his experience to him. he must understand that this experience will be used for murder of ukrainian women and children, what kind of government is it then ? what kind of peacemaker is it? do you want to play the peacemaker? well, that's the way it looks , of course they need these exercises in the gulf of oman in order to demonstrate that the united states does not control the near

east and agreements between saudi arabia which was signed in beijing is also a very important tool for demonstrating that the entire united states no longer has influence in the middle east, but this has nothing to do with artistic activity, so let's talk about the escalation between israel and iran, mr. vitaly, well, this is an escalation for a new it happens from time to time, but now it plays a special role. i think that these are planned things, that is , it is practically impossible to say that this is some kind of paradoxical exacerbation that was not expected, then i do not see any real signs that something is happening that could threaten israel's security early, well, that is, i don't think that this is an escalation , this is an exchange of statements, and statements that primarily

give off wishful thinking during the visit of the secretary of defense of the united states were ideologically opposed to israel, nothing was said that could conclude that israel is really preparing for a major conflict with iran or that the united states is interested in such a conflict, certain israeli media wrote about it, ani did not say about it the minister of defense ani, the prime minister of israel, is near me, and in ukraine, as is often the case, these quotes were seized upon, the main idea that was voiced during these negotiations is that israel cannot under any circumstances allow iran to obtain nuclear weapons, but so far there are no such real prospects, and there is no prospect of discussing what israel can do in this case. so i don't think that this is something that now affects international security, especially in the conditions in which israel is now, it seems to me. what

today, the israeli government is definitely not concerned with foreign policy problems, but primarily with internal political problems, and it is obvious that the main problem for israel is that it is unlikely to be able to form a coalition with arab countries against israel. cool morning. israel was guided by the fact that saudi arabia is in such a difficult relationship. in the morning that it will be allies of the israelis , such tracks now that saudi arabia has followed the path of normalizing relations, and this also means that the relations of others can be normalized countries of the persian gulf, which lowered the level of diplomatic relations of the zaslabian republic early as a sign of solidarity with saudi arabia, by and large it may be that, in principle, the significance of those abrahamic agreements that were signed by israel by some arab countries during the presidency of donald trump can be minimized as its time, the change of presidents in egypt and the death of president anwar sadav, asking for her

election as president by the bones of barak, to a certain extent lowered the level of relations between israel and egypt after the peace process of the war, i.e. not it started, however, with a rapprochement and ended, but the whole room just froze, because of the state of relations, there are contacts, there are common security interests , there is no friendship. if we talk about israel's desire to be its own in the middle east, then definitely the agreements of saudi arabia and iran have moved away from this goal, it is really beneficial to aggravate the situation in the middle east, and it is possible that i read some international experts say that this information noise was specially promoted by certain sources to russia , of course russia needs everyone around they were confused once in a while, russia is real now, the allies are happy, this is what causes such a fuss in israel about the deceased because in israel they understand very well that iran will not sell drones to russia just like that and for years israel will be

forced to pay attention to what iran can ask from russia's technologies and something, this concept. we communicate with russia, we remain in normal relations with it, and it does not take any hostile steps against us , this concept is not very acceptable now, because it is now much more important for russia to win in war with ukraine than to maintain some good relations with israel and maintain some trust with it, and for the sake of these victories in the war, let even pointless russia may sacrifice the security of israel in the end because russia israel israel is an ally of the united states and now as we see all these moments for the country which thought that they would be able, by maintaining allied relations with the united states, to form a relationship of trust with russia, all this ends and where it ends forever, israel will not

be the first such country. i think that the big there will be tests in turkey now. turkey already literally has one foot in the elections. i would say even two months before the presidential and parliamentary elections in turkey. sociological polls basically show the rules of president abdogan and his ruling party . it is not known how it will be, whether the opposition will win everything or everything . dogan, can it be that, let’s say , the president will remain dogan and the parliament will control this position. and if on the contrary, if the opposition president and the dogan parliament are an element of the crisis, but in any

in this case , this crisis coincides with the further aggravation of the situation with russia, and nobody in turkey wants this aggravation we are with russia, but we will remind it that we are members of nato and that the ordinand does not do things like that. he does it exactly like that. he has a trusting relationship with the russian federation, but reminds all the time that he has obligations in front of the fact that, by and large, it depends on whether dogan will win, or whether the instigator will win the head, or whether any results will be suspended, this does not remove the main problem for turkey, it is impossible nowadays to have good relations with the russian federation and remain a member nato erdoğan is doing everything he can to record everything , he held a summit in the end and chose to do it the other day. by the way, we almost didn’t notice it. and this is an interesting event . all the leaders of these post-soviet

central asian states and orban came there. and you you know that orbán is a member of the union of turkic states, why why does hungary consider itself a part of the turkic world ? maybe because people are ideologically close to orbán , erdogan is closer than so many countries of the european union put together. when he meets a stokaev with a grudge, that's basically the same political position. which he likes, we are losing, we want to be in good relations with the west. well, as it is a west , we are partners of the west, but you cannot quarrel with russia, and of course orbano, it is very important that erdoğan talks about this because yordagan is not orban, his words are listened to with much more interest than the words of the hungarian prime minister

. so here i am a whole strategy and we see that this strategy is going bankrupt day by day because i am again, i think that everyone will have to we also tried to choose a side. the foreign policy of leonid kuchma is diverse, and that’s how it was , and the road to war with great sacrifices is diverse. to mention because there is different information from the ukrainian authorities and from the russian authorities, our minister of infrastructure kubrakov says that the agreement was extended for 120 days, but maria zakharova writes that it is for 60 days, i don’t know, they didn’t speak together or somehow by the way. separately, but turkey acts as a mediator, did they sign with everyone differently or how

? well, i think we still need to wait for the statements of the mediators . by the way, and understand how it all happened and what really happened with the extension of the agreement because it is important thing well, they say that on six counter-offensive russians there, if they say the scenario will be negative at the front, then they will be able, as usual , to blackmail them with hunger. well, i think it is very dangerous for the russians , because they quarrel with the village like a ball cock. they do not blackmail, of course, we also lose something when we export grain, but in fact, our economy is still on artificial respiration billions more billions less it does not save the situation and the essence of all situations is that it leads to hunger not in ukraine

, but it leads to hunger in the world for putin now it is very important to maintain the support of the global in order for the grain agreement to work interesting not at all not only the erdogans not only interested in tourism india is interested china because china invests huge money in asian countries in african countries if there is nothing there then chinese investments will simply disappear interested africans countries and they have repeatedly warned russia about this. so this is a rather serious story that should always be talked about when we have in mind the further development of events in they do not change in any way, as we see. they are all the time sudomytics, to somehow beat out of this grain agreement, how not to supply grain, then it turns out that it is a foreign policy, the risks are quite serious in this regard. of course , you need to realize that they are unlikely to be able to go further than they have already gone they wanted to organize every time they are forced to give up this story it is absolutely

obvious thank you thank you very much vita next portnikov in the program today the politician is saying goodbye to you for exactly one week in this company but we and the audience of course see you tomorrow too and now iryna koval will tell the news at 21:00 in ukraine. greetings to all viewers of the espresso tv channel. here is the final news release and we are starting our release with
