good to summarize the main events of saturday, april 20, the intera information service works for you. i am oleksandr vasylchenko. i congratulate the new chapter in relations with nato, at least this is how official kyiv interprets today's visit of the secretary general of the north atlantic alliance, jenn stoltenberg, held talks with the president of ukraine volodymyr zelensky, did they bring ukraine closer to nato membership i will tell you more in detail. the nato secretary general has come to ukraine for the first time since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of the russians. his visit was not announced before the meeting with the president of ukraine. stoltenberg visited bucha, destroyed by the muscovites, inspected the damaged russian military equipment on mykhailivska square and honored the fallen ukrainian soldiers at the memorial wall. this morning i visited bucha, and what i saw there, the russian cruelty against the ukrainian people, deeply touched my

heart. they continue this cruelty even today . and the guilty must be brought to justice, jen stoltenberg once again declared to the crowd that the country and the doors of peace are open for us. ukraine must take a place in the euro-atlantic family and ukraine's place in right to nato and we will help with our support and make it possible we have discussed a multi-year support initiative this will help you move from soviet-era equipment and doctrine to nato standards and ensure full interoperability with the alliance this long-term commitment nato to ukraine nato stands with you today tomorrow and will stand as long as it takes volodymyr zelenskyi to the nato summit to be held in july in vilnius, instead , the president of ukraine expects

concrete steps from his partners regarding future membership we expect from the north atlantic alliance exactly step by step forward and very specific steps. we need something more than the format of our relations in which we are today. we appreciate that allied countries support us with weapons. but we want to understand that when ukraine becomes nato, we will be in the alliance. we believe that these are security guarantees for ukraine, specifically a package of guarantees on this path as long as we are not yet in the alliance, this is what we would like to confirm is very important for ukraine, and tomorrow's meeting in the format of rammstein also discussed with the general secretary, it is recognized that they are preparing for the preparation of the appropriate steps and there are messages from our team that will be presented at the rammstein meeting, some things need to be a little more relaxed so that, accordingly, the weapons that will strengthen

our army on the battlefield will arrive faster than they were even planned, and well, i think that is important to discuss the weapon that we have been waiting so long for, for which ukraine has been waiting for such a long time , for the corresponding training between missions and for our pilots for the corresponding long-range weapons . i expect that the members of the alliance and partners will announce specific military support and add to the unprecedented support that is already provided . i expect that the members of the alliance will do this because it is morally correct. - inter

marathon tv channel, the only news , representatives of the defense departments will meet in germany at the rammstein american air base to agree on the next package of military aid for ukraine more than 50 countries of the world, what kind of weapon or combat kyiv received, according to the results of previous meetings, see further from april 6, 2022, the contact group on the defense of ukraine met for the first time at the initiative of the united states at the american airbase rammstein, which is in germany, hence the name of the format and even then, a year ago, it became clear that the meeting of the minister of defense from almost 50 countries of the world will be on a permanent basis, because the partners promised to support ukraine until the very victory, they achieved what was achieved

today's progression, we will continue to appeal to our partners to help it protect itself. we will continue to insist on supporting and strengthening the ukrainian army before the battles and battles that are ahead of the first rammstein sensation was the change in germany's position regarding the supply of heavy weapons. the then minister of defense of the country christina lambrecht announced about the transfer of self-propelled anti -aircraft cheetah systems to ukraine - gangesta has already decided to provide ukraine with cheetah complexes, which are extremely necessary for the protection of airspace germany is ready to help, and during today's conference we will consider all the possibilities of supporting ukraine and the courageous and important struggle for freedom and peace . video conferences during this time, the name of the format has become a common name when it comes to not purely military support of ukraine , it speaks of financial or legal

rammstein, for example, an excerpt from the appeal of the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi to the participants of the conference on the reconstruction of ukraine held in berlin i believe that we can already make a decision on the establishment of a financial rammstein to support our common stability by analogy with the banned rammstein that is already functioning, we need a financial coordination platform that will unite and direct all efforts aimed at rebuilding our country after hostilities, but let's return to the defensive rammstein, the number of arming circles as a result of these multilateral consultations and list it is difficult, self-propelled artillery installations, tanks, air defense complexes, and anti -ship missiles, helicopters, rocket launchers, anti-drone systems, ammunition, and much more , at meetings in the rammstein format, the partners

announced the provision of the next packages of military aid worth billions of dollars, and announced the training of the ukrainian military that is, they did everything to strengthen the defense of ukraine and prepare it for a counteroffensive, now is not the time to slow down it's time to dig deeper the ukrainian people are watching us the kremlin is watching us history is watching us so we won't back down 11 rammstein will be face-to-face as soon as tomorrow representatives of 50 countries will gather at the american rammstein air base in the west of germany, according to tradition, us defense minister lloyd austin will preside over his expectations from the consultation already shared ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyi, we are preparing for the next meeting in the rammstein format, held preparatory meetings and

expect thorough decisions which will correspond to the prospects on the battlefield, quite ambitious prospects that we are bringing closer with all our might, and we are bringing closer not only for the seven, not only for ukraine, but for our entire anti-war coalition, the aggressor must lose, and this is our joint responsibility as partners about expectations from a meeting in the format of rammstein writes and meitza, for example m edition on own sources reports that ukraine will ask partners for an urgent supply of ammunition for air defense systems, according to journalists, this is currently the most urgent need stocks of missiles are running out if they are not replenished, the expected counteroffensive of ukraine may be under threat, because an effective air defense system is critical when trying to break through the front line, and of course the cities and villages of ukraine will be under threat , the critical infrastructure of civilians remains the number one priority - this is an air defense system, and a combat the aircraft is part of air defense, so we do not

stop at this and continue to say that we need modern combat platforms four plus plus - this is definitely the second - it armored vehicles and shells for heavy artillery of the 155th caliber and all others. these are already members of the electronic warfare council, drones , anti-drones, including the so-called suicide thrones ahead. and by the way, i received several patriot systems from the allies, they were transferred to the united states, germany and the netherlands from the germans also received a state-of-the-art anti-aircraft missile complex, the second of the four promised to tetiana logvinovychslav frolov, details german bureau of the intermarathon tv channel, the only news, a powerful anti-aircraft missile system in ukraine is extremely necessary to protect civilians towns and villages an hour ago it became known that as a result of the shelling of a small tokmachka in the zaporizhzhia region, a family was killed. the village is on the demarcation line in relation to the front line, and there

it is trying to advance on the limansky , marian and avdiiv directions. we will ask our ihor levenko, he is with us live now ihor i congratulate you please tell me what is happening on the front lines now i congratulate oleksandr the defenses repelled the enemy's forties and more than half of them are attacks in the direction of bakhmut, the enemy continues to advance there, heavy street fighting continues in the city of bakhmut, fights literally for every street and every house, i talked to the soldiers who are fighting in bakhmut, and they say that the tactics of the russians there have really changed somewhat. it is no longer the wagners who play the violin there , but the personnel units of the russian army, what

is the change in tactics if earlier the mercenaries of the wagner pvk launched continuous frontal attacks on ukrainian fortifications without sparing manpower and there could have been much more such attacks. now the occupiers are obviously already using their personnel reserves and protecting their personnel . on the avdiyiv direction, the russians do not stop trying to surround and take this city, currently without success, gavdiivka is very important for the ukrainian defense because it prevents the enemy from advancing further in the direction of pokrovsk, this is another large city in donetsk region. well, avdiyivka is also important because it is essentially a suburb of donetsk and there you can organize a good bridgehead for our contrast. the next hot spot on the map of the front is vugledar. the russian invaders again began to storm this city. they use aviation

and drop powerful bombs. yesterday, as a result of such an airstrike, a complete devastation took place . the seven-story building, unfortunately, there are victims among the civilian population under the rubble , there may be up to 10 people who did not evacuate at all, the topic of civilian evacuation is very sensitive, people often answer that they there is simply nowhere to go and nothing to do, and as a result, something happens. we visited this town in the front line of seversk, not far from soledar , since the summer of last year, the enemy leveled it to the ground, however, there are still about a thousand civilians there, how they survive , i suggest you see in our material a front-line city where there is almost no calm , destroyed houses everywhere, deep ravines and

constant cannonade, in fact every building is gutted, the front line runs nearby in seversk, there are no street battles, but the situation here, the occupiers are busy hitting the city with artillery. here is a fire hydrant. before the war, there were more than 10,000 people. now there are no more than a thousand people left. they survive in basements without any communications or drinking water. mykola says that it is better not to stomp on the street for a long time . he flies suddenly and often. how do you just sit in the dark at night and it happens oh, they brought candles and well, the candles also finish it the batteries are running out and thanks for this, i'll add it to the flashlight already, you'll be batteries, well, that

is, they took it, okay, let's hold on, let's go be here, you can constantly hear the roar of both russian and ukrainian artillery, now in seversk, not a single enterprise or institution works except for the paramedic station, let's go to work . what about me, everyone, in my basement in the middle of the ruins, in a beaten and shot hospital , half a dozen of its employees keep a small island of salvation, ms. elena, the head nurse, says that in the realities of war under constant shelling, this is the only place where people are still fighting for human life, and who brings you medicines, well, volunteers here, doctors without borders handed over medicines. the military administration is of course also a list, and if possible, they give first aid there, the first one, well, if of course we allow

it, here we are, the woman is lying, she needs to be transported immediately and put in there, well, my wife. next to the building of the medical facility, 10 graves are buried in one , the family doctor of the man was cut by shrapnel at work, this is the most terrible thing that can be seen, as it seems to me to see such a spontaneous cemetery of people who

they died, they just need borscht to live on, and they are packing a fresh grave here, the couple is buried here, they died so long ago. a week ago, in fact , on one day, many people raised who has a chance and left? ms. olena says that the work of the medical center here depends on one person, and it is not her valery volodymyrovych he is here in charge of the farm, the one who supports this island of indomitability and the one who rallied this small team . of such a devastating war, people should remain people, mr. valery himself says. this is your

paska. wow, the recipe is from the head to the eye, it says , but where do you put it in the bread machine? it’s really tasty . well, i won’t lie to you from donetsk region , ihor levanok, bohdan savrutskyi, volodymyr humenyuk inter tv channel marathon, the only news , how to rebuild in germany, the cities of ukraine will decide, as the whole world says , the first international summit of cities of regions was held in kyiv, the forum in general united participants and more than fifty countries, and the meetings are about to begin dialogue on the restoration of the territory of ukraine, we will ask anuka in more detail about everything. she is with us live now. no, i congratulate you. please tell me what messages were heard at the meeting. and are european partners ready to join

the restoration of ukrainian cities? congratulations, oleksandr . in short, yes, if in more detail, i will tell you that the international the summit of cities of regions became a truly significant event, because today during this day in kyiv they discussed how exactly to rebuild and restore ukraine, our economy, our cities and villages to make them modern european barrier-free and most importantly safe events were attended by almost 150 delegates from 17 countries , almost a hundred heads of cities and regions from 37 countries also joined online , the heads of ukrainian cities and military-civilian administrations were also present at the event. so in the breaks they had the opportunity to communicate with their european colleagues and find new partners for the restoration of their region, and president

volodymyr zelenskyi appealed to the participants to help build our state. i invite you all participate in the development of a new security infrastructure in ukraine so that consent can be extended to other countries and regions from bomb shelters in schools to a completely new standard of e-e cyber security cyber security for all for all systems of the country from a new protected infrastructure in each community to a new decentralized energy system in the villages in general in the country that cannot be destroyed by missile terror that the russian federation used against our country, the president

thanked everyone who helped and is helping our country to confront the terrorist country, russia in particular presented the award of the sign of the city of the savior to the mayor of paris for the fact that this winter, the french capital itself became one of the leaders of the so-called energy rammstein, security is another one of the topics of this summit ukraine can and must become a key sponsor of regional and pan-european security happening on security hubs, and for this we need the following things: first, full membership in nato and reliable security guarantees as an intermediate solution on this path; second, rapid economic recovery, it is necessary for ukraine for further development

and in order to be able to finance a powerful defense system as soon as possible, and such work is already underway, more than 300 territorial communities have already concluded one and a half thousand partnership agreements , that is, at the moment, our state is supported by almost 60 countries that already help ukrainian cities and villages to survive and recover after russian attacks and de-occupation of the territory, but ukrainian high-ranking officials call on partners not to waste time, not to wait the end of the war and to further strengthen this work and join the reconstruction of ukraine, the opportunity to broadly discuss issues related to ensuring the protection of the population, the return to life of the de-occupied territories, the post-war recovery of the country and stabilization, but it is very important that we talk not just about recovery, but about development,

including on regional development we should not wait for the end of the war as a condition for the implementation of important changes in the country today itself is a step forward to better cooperation, i am sure that the results will be decisive for hundreds of communities in different parts of our ukraine, this time we are talking about communities where the devastating consequences of the war are most felt, especially in the de-occupied territories, which have passed through difficult trials, on the one hand, patronage will speed up the recovery of communities, on the other hand , it will contribute to the european integration of ukraine, the entry of our state into the european space on all levels, and today at the summit, such agreements were also signed. and for example, in the vakulov community, which was represented here by its chairman

, right during the discussion panel, a a sister city and it became the french city of coulins, the beginning of the reconstruction of ukraine is very important and it began in bucha, we did not think that it would start so quickly, but we helped not only with buildings and bridges. a map for reconstruction, you are the ukrainian people , the voivodeship has six partners, including lviv, volhynia, rivne , ternopil, odesa and, symbolically, luhansk oblast. now we will sign an agreement with zakarpattia and khmelnytskyi regions, we are open to cooperation in addition to the signed memoranda of cooperation, and there were 12 of them. ukraine also signed an agreement with the european union on joining the eu civil security mechanism, this is another step towards our

european integration. in addition, in the joint declaration at the end, the participants themselves confirmed their support territorial integrity of ukraine, as well as the intention in the future to support and provide financial assistance , including investing in the restoration of our cities and villages. besides, at the summit also announced the creation of a regional office of international cooperation in order to implement specific projects for the reconstruction of oleksandr faster and more efficiently . participants of the congress visited chernihiv in this one of the oldest cities of ukraine more than 3,000 objects were damaged about the impressions

of what i saw further in my story destroyed houses are destroyed, life in chernihiv was one of the first to feel the aggression of the invaders during the blockade, the city was bombed with unguided aerial bombs, one of the biggest attacks took place on chornovola street here on march 3. last year , eight fab-500 bombs were dropped against them , dozens of houses were damaged. volodymyr and his wife show what is left from their home, but our president. now we have the opportunity to live there at all. i’m still there . what kind of trash are you? if you want, let’s go through the blocked entrance. then we climb the emergency stairs to the third floor. that’s it. it looks as if the shelling was just yesterday, construction debris scattered things , broken windows and doors in this apartment, says the couple lived for 34 years, now they hardly

come here, i can't, the hearts of acquaintances are still alive in such realities, now a family of five lives and the main thing they say that you survived, but where were you when all this happened, you were sitting in the cellar like that, if only it were like that, we didn’t have any deaths here because people were only victims of this civil crime, it’s terrifying, say the rescuers , a total of 57 people died, 21 people were injured to varying degrees, all 57 persons still under during the investigation, the bodies of the 23 dead were unblocked by our units, and they were rescued during immediate work immediately after the airdrop. more than 20 people were targeted, and already on march 5, pilot oleksandr krasnoyartsev, who bombed myrnyi chernihiv, managed to detain his plane. court 34

, the roof of this uh old one was the most affected the buildings of the center and the windows. as you can see, all the windows were hit and all the windows were blown out, and the doors were blown down in the corridors, in the wards and in the offices, because there was a very strong blast wave, very strong, because everything here was blown away, well, it was terrible, considering the scale of the destruction, he says the head of the medical facility there could be dozens of dead and injured here , at the beginning of the war there were 115% of them, we evacuated them from here to the central base of the regional hospital because we understood that, taking into account the curfew and so on, we would not be able to adequately provide the activity of a separate structural unit now wants to give a new life to the medical facility, to rebuild it, they hope to have a chat already this year, the estimated cost of the project is half a billion hryvnias, we are planning to open a rehabilitation center for military personnel, for the civilian population and for children, because there are
