3:30 pm
[000:00:00;00] scanned. we hope that communication will be restored. in the meantime, we will inform you about the most important events. the armed forces advanced on the flanks of the bakhmut direction . this was reported by the spokesman of the eastern group of the armed forces of ukraine, serhiy cherevaty, or do i quote interfax? 25 combat clashes took place, 6 air raids destroyed 130 occupiers of the 145th were wounded four were captured maria chernyakhivska from gdańsk our correspondent slava to ukraine maria gyurem slava congratulations colleagues, today at the forum the lviv declaration was presented, it is about about the creation of the center of the ukrainian center of freedom and democracy in lviv, more details about the future centers, we have the opportunity to ask the people's deputy mykola knyazhytsky, who is also a participant of the forum in gdańsk today
3:31 pm
, mr. mykola, i congratulate you. please tell us about the prerequisites of the desire to create this center and in general what therefore, it is happening now in the center of democracy in gdańsk , which is built on the site of the former sewer of the place where the revolution in poland began, where the trade union was actually formed solidarity is one of the largest such centers of democracy, where there is a fantastic museum , a library, a huge number of events are held, which unites democratically minded people for whom european values ​​are important from all over europe and once upon a time, i was here at a conference, and together with the director of this center, we started talking about it would be very nice to create something similar in lviv, we have been working on it for more than a year now, and we are presenting it in poland, they made the lviv declaration. we are very pleased that very well-known ukrainians signed intellectuals, but also polish intellectuals, the first president of poland, lech walesa, the vice-speaker of the senate, bohdan borysievych, who also participated here today, many
3:32 pm
other polish and ukrainian public figures, and this declaration says that ukraine is part of europe, that ukraine needs serious support, that we have to get this support both against the russian aggressor and for building a strong democratic society, and this is the goal of our center of freedom and democracy, which we want to do in lviv together with our european partners and there should be support for the construction of a democratic society after our victory, how exactly do you imagine it, what will it look like, and what exactly will happen there, first of all, we need to investigate everything that is happening in ukraine , and work so that ukraine integrates into the european community which you can as soon as possible, we need to build ukrainian-polish relations, for this , intelligent people should work, who should study , on the one hand, obviously our history, but at the same time, think about how we should live and
3:33 pm
to work in the future, it is obvious that it is extremely important for us to study what is happening in the countries of the former soviet union, in countries that still remain part of the russian empire, but later gain independence in this entire eastern european space, and the lviv center should be a center of scientific work in the eastern european space at the same time, it should be one of the largest museums about how ukrainians chose their independence both in soviet times and in dissident times and in the conditions of the maidan and most importantly now the military of the russian-ukrainian war and then people must pass then they must pass schoolchildren who want to know their history there must be a large conference hall for major international events because lviv as a city where international law was actually born , a city where lemkin worked, the author of the term genocide, leoterpacht, the author of the term crimes against humanity, on the basis of which the nuremberg tribunal was conducted. this city should become the guarantor of the protection of human rights in the future
3:34 pm
democratic world when we win of the aggressor. it is clear. i wish you to implement all this. you have just participated in a discussion about the challenges of the european world against the background of russian aggression in ukraine. what are the main points you wanted to convey to the participants of the partners today ? in memory of the crimean tatars who suffered from carrying the crimean tatar people. it is a great honor for me to be the author of the resolution on the basis of which this day is recognized as the day of commemoration of the victims of the nazism. and this terrible resettlement , murder was called genocide, and therefore our the task is that this genocide against the ukrainian people is not repeated again now on ukrainian soil, that the russian aggression is stopped, of course we need weapons, but we need a strong democratic principle, an example and a strong democratic country in the future, not an authoritarian one, where is anyone who will consider himself the only person who
3:35 pm
i can decide, i will manage the parliament and the courts by phone. and that’s normal. strong european democracy with a change of government , independence of the branches of government and the protection of the life of every citizen. thank you, mr. mykola, colleagues. we continue to prepare at the forum in gdańsk more details about what is happening here will be told in the news at 19:00 thank you thank you maria we will be waiting maria cherne-chernyakhivska is an espresso correspondent who is currently working at the european forum in gdańsk we are going further andriy osadchuk, people's deputy of ukraine, we are now adding to our marathon glory to ukraine and andrew to heroes glory to the prince's cause loud with certain i think political and not only political consequences, we would ask you
3:36 pm
to analyze the main directions of development knyazov gate well, look, this is really a very unpleasant situation, first of all, not so for knyazev, as for an ordinary possible offender, as for the state of ukraine, because we have already suffered enormous reputational damage , which will have to be minimized as soon as possible , and they will be able to do this only how it doesn't sound funny, but the law enforcement and judicial bodies are responsible for prosecuting corruption . after all, a high-quality judicial system depends on a high-quality system of selection of judges, high-quality motivation, high-quality reporting and high-quality control, we probably have a control system that has worked now, i hope ah. therefore, this is exactly what you and i have been striving for all these years
3:37 pm
, eh, with the selection in we still have big problems. the supreme council of justice, as you know, has only just started working, and therefore we still have a lot of efforts ahead of us in order to bring the entire judicial system to some kind of adequate state . what is important from the most recent events is that today the supreme council of justice is unanimously supported the petition for the arrest of the former head of the supreme court a. and this is important from the point of view that it is the supreme council of justice that is now entrusted with the duty to practically protect the judicial system, because around the scandal with knyazev , it is important not to lose at all those sprouts of improvement that were achieved and that actually exist in the judicial system in recent years, we will carefully monitor the process, a huge responsibility also rests on the former and the former , how well are they conducting all this
3:38 pm
investigation, how well will they be evidence for the court because i don't really like this, their favorite topic, to put out such media clips where they cut some fragments of conversations and some screenshots, allegedly from phones, well, this is too media, it naturally arouses great interest or you. i have citizens, but here we are talking about the rule of law and justice, and look here regarding knyazev's statement, here is his statement during the meeting of the supreme council of justice, when his case was being heard on the submission of a ssap on granting permission to keep knyazev in custody, what the suspect stated. i consider the case in revenge for certain of his actions, which are known to the members of the supreme council of justice, i believe that the case was ordered, er, bodies were used to
3:39 pm
fulfill the order with a certain political expediency, which, i think, is well known to the members of the supreme council of justice. we cannot verify the truth of the prince's statement and so on. in general , i do not know whether there are grounds for the prince's belief, but i would like to know if such cases are possible. how to achieve the truth in particular. well, this is a serious statement, that is, until recently of the head of the supreme court of ukraine towards the members of the supreme council of justice and what could it be for revenge for what kind of princely actions do you know, i don't know what he specifically means but if he decided to take a position of tough defense and he has the right to do so according to the ukrainian legislation, and you and i, again, can only assume that he committed a crime, we also do not have any final conclusions, but i would
3:40 pm
not say a riddle in his place even then if he has specific facts if he has specific justification so why these? these are very abstract statements, some members know, some do not know, then he should call things by their names, because only in this way can you get to the truth and the essence of what is happening, therefore, in any case , the responsibility here lies with the authorities inquiry about how they will qualitatively work out this whole story, despite the fact that there is a political uh-uh some kind of background in this story, it definitely is, because the position of the head of the supreme court of ukraine , of course, on the one hand, is supposedly independent there, as it is written in all our laws but we know very well and it is not a secret for anyone that mr. knyazev had quality communication with the president's office and he was valued there and he was listened to, that's why one way or another there are a
3:41 pm
lot of interested political circles around this story because knyazev is now obliged in his own interests to tell the truth if he really thinks that he is innocent, as well as the law enforcement agencies should work out this whole story as clearly as possible because that is exactly how we will reach the outcome of this story and will affect both the reputation of the state of ukraine as a class on the reputation of the judicial law enforcement system. now we are facing a very, very fragile crisis. when we can cause simply devastating damage to both ukraine and the future of the judicial system, clarify, this is a normal practice . when the head of the supreme court keeps the funds that could have brought him, so to speak, his colleagues at work well, i was also shocked , different people brought money to me for safekeeping, even judges of the supreme court, they were simply
3:42 pm
kept in my office, you understand, well , they bring, for example, a bag with bucks to your office let them lay you there, one of my colleagues from the verkhovna rada, well, this is of course some kind of delusion , but now you ask me, of course , half-joking, absolutely absolutely, the verkhovna rada, but i am actually now thinking about my entrepreneurial past. i worked in large organizations, people earned a lot of money, but not together in my life, despite the fact that i was a manager and trusted and appreciated by subordinates, no fuck no one came to me and said andrii petrovych , please measure my happiness, well, this is absurd, of course, once again uh, it's up to knyazev to decide how to behave, the information is publicized, it's terrible from a reputational point of view, here are the piles of dollars on sofas, they once again look disastrous for the reputation of the state of ukraine
3:43 pm
, not only the judicial system, and his future and future depends on how knyazev behaves of the state of ukraine, therefore i would recommend to him and his lawyer that it would be 10 times better to make a deal with the investigation or to bury yourself and the reputation of the state and even deeper mr. andrii, let's now move a little to the case of the europeans already mixed and not only indirectly through knyazev, the member states of the council of europe at the iceland summit called on russia to immediately withdraw its troops from ukraine, not only from ukraine, but also from georgia and moldova, other demands - this is the return of ukrainian children who were transported to the territory of the russian federation, and an international register of losses was also created please tell me if there are at least such a schematic mechanism in the plans for holding
3:44 pm
russia accountable for all these crimes , well, first of all, what our viewers should understand at the moment after already 14-15 months of the great war, and the state of ukraine, ukrainian diplomacy has achieved great success. if someone had told me a year ago that we would be able not only to keep the anti-putov coalition, but to strengthen it to such an extent and to so widely increase the influence of ukrainian interests in the world, i would have put it into serious doubt. in may of last year , we are now doing very well on all platforms and we need to develop this success every day of every week, we just sometimes think that the whole world is interested , only ukraine is being followed, in fact the world the big world is complex, everyone has their own problems, that is why we must constantly remind to work as allies and constantly promote
3:45 pm
our standards, what happened in, and especially in the part of calls for the withdrawal of troops . this is an extremely important topic, it is seemingly simple for you and me. around the russian federation, its direct and indirect allies, there are many forces that say the word peace, settlement, er , respect for sovereignty, but, for example, the peace plan, which vytaiyu says nothing about the withdrawal of troops, and this is an absolutely fundamental issue, when someone wants to utter the word negotiations, this is exactly what is recorded in the ukrainian plan, which was supported by the united nations, but which we must promote as much as possible at all levels in order to, i'm sorry, to shut the mouth of anyone who utters the word negotiations without the phrase withdrawal of troops, the withdrawal of troops is the basis for building peace on the territory of ukraine regarding prosecution, the process
3:46 pm
is also underway. i want to remind you that we must not forget that putin is a person wanted by the international criminal court and this is not a journalist strain - this is a legal fact, this is already a huge achievement of ukraine and our allies , the ukrainian authorities have already obtained the consent of many countries to form a tribunal against the russian federation against the crime of aggression, these are all extremely complex international matters, you understand there is no logarithmic ruler or any scheme that can simply be copied and thus make a tribunal, each case is absolutely unique and it needs consolidation most countries of the world, i can assure you that the current result is very, very good, that is why the realism of bringing the war criminals of the russian federation to justice is at the international level. and by the way, this is a very correct position of the president's office and the majority of ukrainian politicians , because we are sometimes pushed into the so-called hybrid
3:47 pm
format of the tribunal well, as if only war criminals were tried in ukraine. this is absolutely unacceptable. we need the highest possible international level, which will be recognized by the main countries of the world, and preferably an organization of the united nations that's why this whole global puzzle is coming together little by little, and despite a lot of difficulties, i personally look quite optimistically in the future. thank you mr. andriy for your optimism for this professional conversation. and we attach to oleg . thank you for the invitation yesterday, the prime ministers of britain, italy and the netherlands, summing up the meeting of the council of europe summit in reykjavik, agreed on the creation of a coalition of fighter jets, but following this
3:48 pm
news, we have another one from america in the united states states where they say that the united states is hesitating and generally unlikely that they will supply us with f16 , which we constantly talk about and on which we actually count all the time, they say that these fighters are too expensive, the equipment is too expensive and too much of the budget can be spent on it military equipment for ukraine, what could be in exchange, or could there be f-16s from other european countries, and what, in the end, the interlocutors who gave this interview in the biden administration agreed on, so the language looks just right for the situation when the u.s. it doesn’t matter, you already know, and it’s necessary here. well, there are a lot of them, but the fact is that they fly on them. as long as they do not simply turn into targets for practicing anti-aircraft missile systems, this is standard
3:49 pm
practice for the usa and in the usa, no matter how it is of course, there is a huge budget, but the fact is that they do not have time to replace the planes that they write off with new ones in the ratio of at least one to that, and this is a huge problem , to which are dedicated the entire battles that take place in the congress in the pentagon. as 16 yes in particular, there is a question, but the fact is that we are talking about the european coalition with great dignity, because now some countries, in particular, the same denmark, belgium , the netherlands, they switch from zf16 to f-35. and if you know, objectively, they are also killed, that is, not it is necessary to break the illusion that these were a new set of unpainted aircraft, er, it will be exactly a used one with a used car, that is, as a car for victory, it is more than suitable, and they still write them off, their transfers for ukraine do not pose a threat to their resilience
3:50 pm
, and if you take the maximum hypothetical resource of these three countries, er, we can talk about 139 machines, but not all of them are now in flying condition, the carriers are ready for combat, and even more so, not all of them can be transferred at the same time, because the replacement for the f-35 is also gradual, but this is the scenario according to which ukraine can initially receive 10 machines there . moreover, the same netherlands, er, 12 units. you are really here because of what has already started announced the beginning of basic training about what exactly the f16 was chosen as an aircraft that will allow ukraine to obviously simply strengthen the capabilities of the air force in the short-term perspective, but in any case, we will talk about it not two or three weeks ago, which is the preparation is you the terms you announced the logic
3:51 pm
of the air force this is at least six months and, well, obviously such a decision has most likely already been made, but reda , who the current air alert and massive missile attack successfully worked our the air defense system, more precisely, as if the fighters who operated the corresponding devices, let's now analyze the last week, when the enemy began to resume its massive missile attacks on civilian objects in kyiv, it is important to understand that the enemy is really required now to create such an illusion of massive attacks, because the alarm really sounds every day and but here it is necessary to look not only at the number of air raids, but at the number of rockets launched by the enemy, that is, if we say from the beginning that it was the autumn winter company that began
3:52 pm
in october, it ended in march, and then there was a pause of 1.5 months, and from april 28, new strikes began, and in 21 days , the enemy fired 84 rockets in six such smells . to understand, we simply need to remember that only on the 21st day of october, 2,011 rockets were fired. in four volleys, i.e., the missile company ruled, an average of 50 were released. and the standard launch in general was somewhere around 670 missiles. now we launch 20, but it is done more often. why, because its main goal is that everything will become terror. that all of them also perfectly understand that the more missiles they launch at the same time, the more of them break through, this is purely a theory of probability, even if the air force of ukraine shot down 99%. if they launch a hundred, one breaks through. well, this is just a theory of probability, one way or another , and at will they launch 20 there, of which
3:53 pm
96% miss now, according to the latest statistics, but they concentrate these strikes on some big city, for example, on kyiv, odesa, and disperse the story there from here about what they were talking about, they fell somewhere there and then they were airborne forces tells like this if you shoot down a cruise missile, then logically, well, gravity just works and it falls somewhere and it can explode , but it will fall to the target and well, it’s just that again it’s about terror, that is, it’s not about why it’s about constant, of course, rockets attacks, but the number of ropes for each of them is many times less than for ukraine. and those fragments of rockets that were found in crimea . was it something fresh that flew or did it lie under bydgoszcz in the same way as in poland for several months until it was either found or talked about here to an interesting question. it is necessary to identify what it is. but it is possible after it is established that exactly it arrived there. let's say so, then
3:54 pm
the answer to the question of the reason will be clear in relation to the cotton there at the isaac airport or under feodosia, that is, here i think it is necessary to wait and everything will be officially known. they say whether there is a threat from belarus, this information about 10 russian fighter jets that were transferred from one airfield from baranovichi seems to be a joke. they often change the location of their planes, of course, but here it should be noted that we are talking about su-34 front-line bombers, which are regular carriers of such propelled bombs, including upc kits , they are used and the appearance of these aircraft directly, well, their transfer to the new airfield, well, let's say so, you have to be careful, because it is possible that we are talking about those machines that already
3:55 pm
adapted to the adaptation of these umpc of these kits and in the mountains, in the end, he recently felt the effect of bryansk and air defense , losing an entire air group, one of the planes of which the crucian carp was in the carrier showed him the 34th now they may change a little, they will be able to try this assumption, it is excluded, it is exceptionally missed, try to change the vector of such attacks, but we believe in minsk portfolio defense, but re would like to ask you more about the story with the patriots , yes, it was so hysterical, they started telling each other their lies there what they say they hit there, destroyed installations and so on. well, everyone on our side and even the americans denied it. i understand that they convinced themselves, but i am interested in what the story is and do we have any prospect of getting we understand that they are not cheap. well, on the other hand, we understand that our situation is also non-trivial
3:56 pm
. it is obvious that it is so, that is, well, just in two hours . why are we going to look at some types of weapons that were intended for ukraine? at first, such a trial batch was carried out, then it was evaluated. how effective are they ? how effective are they ? i really hope that the number of patriots will be increased, because we all heard from the officials there about ukraine's need for the number of these peters in this, and we are not talking about a few batteries, we are talking about several dozen in order to protect, and there will be the main ones critical objects, the largest cities, not every piece of ukraine , because, well, again, each complex has its own range, and we are really talking about a fairly significant number of patriots in order to create
3:57 pm
such a reliable dome over ukraine, and well, on collateral objects. it seems to me that the usa once again has its resources in order to transfer and objectively. well, let's study, there is a budget that they allocated and they even this year, the american financial year, that is, by september 31, having to fully fulfill and there is still quite a significant amount left, which they can spend specifically on the loop. perhaps it will not be according to the program of the presidential withdrawal, of course. perhaps it will be according to the program on the website, that is, when it is ordered from the developer, it will of course take longer and the deadline for the transfer, but one such question is about aid, the ambassador of ukraine to germany, oleksiy makeev, spoke about what will be in the aid package from germany, which is large for 2.7 billion euros, in particular, air defense systems, but also 15 cheetahs, these are anti-aircraft self-propelled artillery installations. please tell me what is it and how will it help us in this war
3:58 pm
, it has been supplied to the armed forces of ukraine for quite some time now, they have proven their maximum effectiveness, in fact, they have found their ideal place in the formation in the form of drone countermeasures, countermeasures even against cruise missiles there for example, the statistics regarding the path of the eds were excellent, for example , in order to destroy the noble cheetah, which is an anti-aircraft anti-aircraft installation with its own radio-station two 35 mm automatic acromats, which have even a higher rate of fire of several thousand shots per minute, only a short burst of literally seven shells is enough and chess was destroyed, and again, under any conditions, there was, by the way, a problem with ammunition for this system, because switzerland once again reminded everyone that if it were neutral, it would not supply weapons and would not even agree to export, at the same time, germany
3:59 pm
looked at all this and rain metal announced against the german company metal announced that it was just starting the production of 35 mm ammunition and thus leveled the issue regarding the provision of these highly effective systems with ammunition and in view of this opened well, the way to supply more cheetahs is that they have already been removed from the bundessphere, eh. so when , of course, against the background of the complete reduction of the bundessphere itself, there are small scans, just a whole line is armed. much faster, because when we are talking about the notable aristi missile complexes, four units of which are included in the high aid package of 2.7 billion euros, well, it is necessary to understand that these actions will still need to be carried out, the cheetahs are already ready, or ready let's put it this way, in the short-term perspective of aviation, we will wait until their production is completed - this is quite a long technological cycle, in fact, what
4:00 pm
are we waiting for cheetahs. thank you very much . we were contacted by oleg katkov , chief editor of defense express. this is the time for news , so our iryna koval will tell you in a moment the latest and hottest things that have happened in the country and beyond. thank you oksana in just a moment i will tell you about the situation in different regions of our ukraine after the russians shelling and we will also learn about how currently in strasbourg they are celebrating vyshyvanka day, so wait for 16:00 in ukraine news time on the espresso tv channel in the studio iryna koval welcomes all the viewers and i will tell you about the most important events right now and
