today, the honorary cross was handed over to 77 families. in general, almost two hundred families have the monument. the order was started on volunteer day , march 14 this year, in memory of the fallen soldiers of the 24th legendary brigade, which has been fighting since 2014 in the most fierce points of the front. the soldiers of the brigade bravely defended the mountainous golden lysychansk and took part in the liberation of kherson, now they continue to defend bakhmut in donetsk region, this is an award that was initiated exclusively by the military unit in memory of our servicemen . we want them to always be remembered not only their relatives and loved ones, they will never forget about them. but so that society remembers, remembers the new generation that comes to our military unit for military service . they are always on the front lines in the fight against the enemy

, and their endurance and courage can be envied by the experienced soldiers of the territorial defense forces brigade of the armed forces of ukraine were formed only last year at the beginning of a full-scale russian invasion, former entrepreneurs , itty teachers and lawyers stood up to defend the country and perform combat tasks at the level of paratroopers and mechanized brigades on heroes' day tells about the exploits of ter defenders during the great war last year, on february 24, territorial defense recruitment centers were filled with people who were ready to stand up for the defense of the state, thousands of men and women without military service experience at one point took up weapons and put on military uniforms and went to defend the country of former lawyers and entrepreneurs, teachers and doctors became soldiers of the territorial defense forces

of the armed forces of ukraine , the territorial defense force is light infantry the task of the infantryman is to take a position in the trench and hold it, artillery is placed behind him, shock brigades are formed and deployed, so the infantryman always takes the first strike , so the hardest part for him is tarboron - it is first of all people, it is people who have been through it for more than a year of fighting, it is people who are absolutely civilians today, people have already become commanders , heads of units in the military , this is an extremely great achievement for the military state, i.e. imagine that yesterday you were an ordinary salesman, and today you are already in charge and in command by people with junior sergeant oleksandr pliskov, the man never served, he did not have a military department and did not hold a weapon in his hands in civilian life, he was engaged in the tourist business, he had his own travel agency for more

than a year, he is in the armed forces of ukraine and now the commander of the anti-aircraft unit in the 125th brigade of the seltaro battalion of the military participated in the not-northern outskirts of bakhmut, the street was covered with protracted constant assaults, constant shelling , air raids by both airplanes and helicopters, it was very, very active, something to say before that we had no such experience a platoon of 30 people could climb behind him, another zlot of 30 people, or maybe a couple of consents up to 70 people could go there at once, and in fact, almost around the clock, and in such conditions, the soldiers bravely held the defense. oleksandr pliskov admits that bakhmut hardened the soldiers after these battles, they became more professional and experienced the soldiers of the 103rd solterian defense brigade were also hardened in the battle, the defense of the front line along the siversky dayintets became legendary for

the brigade. last year, the enemy threw huge forces to force the siverskyi river donets, precisely in the area of ​​belogorivka, there were several of them, if i am not mistaken, dozens of attempts to establish pontoon crossings, and our units of the 103rd territorial defense brigade, on the same level as other other units, also held these e-e positions, these places where the enemy tried to deploy a bridgehead for the offensive and to establish crossings and in the end, belogorivka became another chernobaivka for the enemy, and the territories were also liberated by the russians. when the preparations for the great ukrainian counteroffensive began, we were able to, together with other brigades of the national guard and the armed forces of ukraine to cross this river, to force and capture several settlements already in the occupied territory. that is, we actually liberated several a-a settlements that were previously occupied by the enemy, and in fact , for us, this has become such a boundary, whether it turns out to be ground defense - it's not just sitting in the trenches or holding territory. and this is also to liberate

populated areas. during the full-scale invasion, territorial defense brigades were able to integrate into the structure of the armed forces of ukraine and now perform tasks alongside experienced territorial defense brigades has evolved in armaments from a classic infantry unit that must sit in the trenches to serious semi-mechanized brigades with their own equipment, people often think that they are not the armed forces or they are sitting somewhere in the rear. in fact, i have not heard of any brigade that is or is not currently on the front line is exactly that or it was not on the front line, it is like light infantry, but at the same time, we can perform many tasks, as there are rifle companies, there are fire support companies that have light weapons, the military

is convinced of territorial defense in people these are extremely motivated soldiers who in combat invent different applications of technology in order to harm the occupiers as much as possible. they were often successful in civilian life and now use their experience to defeat the enemy in war . got stuck in the engine compartment of the car during a walk, the four-legged one got scared and climbed under the car, the children tried to pull it out , the driver lifted the car with a jack, but didn't get the furry one, so they called the rescuers, they freed the tailed one and handed it over to the owner . that's how things are at the moment. the news team of espresso is back again at 19:00 with the final issue and of course , read about important things on our website espresso tv, subscribe to our channels on social networks like it stay close

the espresso tv channel has started at 15:00 in the next hours about the most important events within the borders of our country and of course we will inform you dear tv viewers about the most important events abroad live in the espresso studio oksana vysochanska is also actually important even though it is not news, nevertheless, information about our collection of the espresso tv channel together with the angel lviv car fund and the charitable the civilization of europe fund collects cars for our defenders at the front. cars break down very quickly, often they cannot even be repaired, so they often need to be updated. and ukrainian soldiers must be mobile in order to liberate all of ukraine from russian rule, for example, our goal is to collect uah 1 million for cars for the armed forces, in particular, uah 200,000 is needed for a minibus for the soldiers of the 79th brigade of the airmobile battalion , a pickup truck for the mortar calculation of the 210th separate special unit will cost uah 240,000 the battalion needs uah 260,000 for a pickup truck for the soldiers

neighbors in the united states. how do you assess this story of raising the threshold of the national domestic debt of the united states? because very often voices are heard saying that america is in danger of defaulting. allow to change the thresholds, set thresholds sometimes even for other countries, so i do not think that the default of the united states is threatened in the near future, and the united states of america is our reliable partner and the economy, and especially their currency, is the us dollar , which is of world importance, so i think that they can.

that in a week, more than a week has passed, the situation has not changed yet, what technical issues are there, what technical issues are preventing europe from finally approving these sanctions , where is the trouble, see the 11th package of sanctions , if we are talking about the 11th package of sanctions, i already have it so in simple language, i call the situation when, you know, at first we had a rough adjustment of the equipment, now there will be a fine adjustment, you know , for a long time and in fact at the present time to pass and we limit the whole range and do not give the opportunity to use them. as of today, these are dual-purpose goods that , for example, are ordered there by third countries for hunting there or some such situations and then in a strange way they end up in the russian army or

, for example, high-tech. the second topic we talked about is the transit of dual -purpose goods, it is from military high-tech goods through the territory of russia, because there is also a situation when they transit through russia and something happens there and they end up there in some way . therefore, this is also such an important point, i think that the restrictions on these specific companies that abuse or engage in such things will give such a small excursion to others should not be given the opportunity to even look in that direction, therefore the 11th package of sanctions will most likely be adopted at the end of may, there are difficult situations, we know that some countries can, as the people say, put sticks in the wheels, but you already know that in most of the civilized countries of the world no one questions the fact that ukraine will win and the russian federation as the aggressor must bear the blame for compensation and other related

things, mr. andriy, we would like to ask you about the prospects for the implementation of a huge of a potential aid tranche, in particular, it is about frozen money, money frozen by the russian federation in many banks, yes, and accordingly, the key story is the creation of a mechanism that would allow us to transfer those funds to us, certain such bells have already been heard well, of course, the amounts were small but there were already precedents . it was about 5 million dollars and so on. and now we need regular and permanent financial assistance because the enemy has destroyed a significant segment of our economy , it is primarily about civilian objects

enterprises and not only. enough time has passed for the leading financial minds, i don't know, headed by soros to have already been able to think about what mechanism could be launched now in order to transfer to us what belongs to us. well, you touched on a difficult question, i do i will tell you how much compensation to ukraine for all the damages that russia caused us and continues to cause in the 22nd and 23rd years, this story is long because the first one we have not yet audited how many of these damages and how many at the time of our victory more twists and turns will be inflicted on ukraine for the second time - a legal component, that is, receiving funds from party a with party b must always contain a certain legal basis, because we live in a civilized world, not the one built by the russian federation, that is, there must be a certain sequence of procedures and the basis

for the fact that if something is confiscated from someone, there must be a certain reason for it, and what you said is that a small amount is possible as a pilot project or, let's say, for a pen test, that's fine, but it's definitely not the amounts that we let's talk about the restoration of ukraine, today they call it hundreds of billions of dollars, we remember last year at the lugano forum they even talked about 750 billion dollars, so i think that this process will be long today in russia, in europe they are talking about limiting russian capital and securities and the circulation of these of securities, some banks already , let's say, sent such things to their customers on monday, but we call it happiness here, well, for now, that's all, you know, uh, there are no details of this and this information, but for ukraine this is definitely a positive thing, because any restrictions on russian capital will put pressure on russia and then on the russian government, and in this way we

will bring our victory to ukraine closer to ukraine from various fronts . that their investment accounts will be isolated from other assets and their operations will be frozen due to the demands of the euroclear. please tell me switzerland is a neutral country. parties and how this event should be regarded in general. well , the first thing i want to pay attention to is that the original source of this information was the russian publication force. therefore , until the official release from the bank of the swiss bank, julia from the bar no, then we will give everything equally, let's say yes, give

an amendment to this information yes. if we talk about the essence, then look at this. to receive income from them and so on. at the moment, the sanctions policy puts more and more pressure on russia as a state and on russian citizens as participants in this process, and in particular, this tool can also create problems so that russian capital does not have able to earn money on civilized instruments offered to civilized people in the european union, so today, according to our information , also on monday, the clients received from this bank received such letters so far with details we do not have such details for 100%, but that restrictions on working with securities are still being introduced for citizens of russia and belarus, and this is already a big plus, because imagine how many russian citizens, and

belarusian citizens, live in the european union . can afford to live in russia in the european union, so i think this will be a big step in order for these people to understand even more what a negative step was caused by their votes in particular for this bloody dictator mr. andriy and the story with another bank is now talking about the otp bank, because of which i actually yesterday the foreign ministers of germany and hungary quarreled eh hungary asks demands threatens that it will not support aid to ukraine precisely because of the fact that eh this bank found himself under sanctions from the other side, we have information that this bank opens credit lines for the russian military and supports and recognizes the territories of the luhansk and donetsk regions occupied by russia, which are not

recognized by other countries. is it for this bank reputational losses and this whole story do not matter as much as any funds that he will receive or something else, it is necessary to clearly define which bank we are talking about, because if we are talking about otp ukraine, it is one situation if we are talking about otp a bank that works in the russian federation, this is the second situation in ukraine, indeed otp bank ukraine received a certain reputational signal, this is not sanctions , this is a reputational signal, when one of the state bodies, if i am not mistaken, entered it into the list of so-called sponsors a country, an institution that supports aggression, or somehow correctly, i can't right now, i can't be wrong in the exact wording, it's not sanctions, it

's more of a reputational signal. answered that there are no sanctions against the otp ukraine bank, but with such a step, the state body of the nazk stimulates the structures that work in ukraine and are connected to the parent structures for business to leave the russian federation or at least to stop its activities that help the russian federation with their aggressive actions about otp bank russia itself, i cannot say here in detail what sanctions have been introduced against it or not, but most likely i thought i think what you meant about otp bank ukraine, that's why it's a solution for the parent structure of the otp that you can't sit on two chairs, either you're in the european union and you support civilization -civilizational basic principles, or you make money and help russian soldiers kill ukrainian civilians and

in its own way, this is equivalent to supporting russia's aggression against ukraine. thank you mr. andriy andriy dubas, president of the association of ukrainian banks, worked now live on the espresso tv channel. culture of ukraine glory to ukraine yevgeny congratulations on your appointment we welcome you on the air of espresso tv channel glory to the heroes happy heroes day to you and thank you for having such curiosity yes sir evgeny, we would like to ask you as the newly appointed chairman of the shevchenko committee

, first of all, what is the key story with us now, the signing and awarding of this year's shevchenko prize, respectively . announced this year's winners traditionally on march 9, as was done in all previous years; later, after some uproar, the list of winners was published , but the corresponding presidential decree notwithstanding the promises were never made public until yesterday yes exactly sorry for the technical points so let's get back to what i feel first of course that i got into a hot hot pan i understand the responsibility and i understand that well, both for me and for the entire committee of the newly created it is easier to start with, as they say, a clean slate
