[000:00:00;00] stand of the greek catholic church svyatoslav shevchuk even there there were four arguments that he gave that it was not at the right time and there are certain reasons for that, but my corrections i understand that the war and the processes that are taking place today in ukraine society is one of these processes - it is, of course , our european integration, which is already irreversible, and in order to be in the european family, we must to a certain extent adjust to those standards, which i would not say in a religious context, but in most of the orthodox churches of the european union, we celebrate using the new julian calendar for official use , so we would like to keep up with it, especially since we clearly know that the old julian calendar is

not perfect and astronomically it is wrong we must recognize this and not replace the e-e tradition that has been reduced to the tradition should not be an obstacle for us to celebrate more astronomically correctly those dates that according to the gospel dates other holidays that are connected precisely with the church liturgical circle, er, another reason. i mention this today at the cathedral, in fact, i also spoke about this, that in our country, the war, er, drove a lot of forced immigrants from ukraine - these are women, children, who today are somewhere near 8 million seem to be outside of ukraine in other countries that celebrate both orthodox and non-orthodox church holidays who follow the gregorian calendar and who follow the new

luhansk calendar if we say orthodox holidays in orthodox countries where do we have such approach, and i was repeatedly asked what was actually a certain nuance for me . to date, it is necessary to comply with certain norms of life, and therefore of church life and civil life, while staying in these countries, and there , of course, vacations or weekends coincide with church holidays, and this happens either according to the gregorian calendar, or according to the new luhansk calendar and wait when to celebrate or go to the temple, which may be closed and on this day there may not be a day off when we celebrate in ukraine, then

it is not right then to leave people without the possibility of such a celebration. of ukraine they have been receiving such education for a certain period in europe and in those countries that are involved in these two calendars that we mention, for them it will already be incomprehensible the old style why we impulses to reject such a decision, and the third impulse, yes. we are sorry, but we do not know sociology for sure now, how many people are really ready to support this decision of the church and celebrate holidays according to the new calendar , even today at the cathedral, one archbishop spoke against it, metropolitan epiphanius informed me, and i can also allow that on the ground in the regions there will be many priests who do not support these changes. do you have a plan if the scenario develops in such a way that

it turns out that there are more people than you could have imagined, and priests and parishioners do not support the transition, you know that i don’t have a plan and there shouldn’t be any plan at all, because in the resolution of the synod of bishops the following wording was sounded that now the transition to the new luhansk calendar and the time of celebration is, firstly, voluntary, and secondly , we will have them in parallel without the set deadline for the final use of both calendars in worship, that is, no one forbids the use of the old style, and if parishes so desire, and even entire dioceses are possible, if there is such a desire they have the full right to celebrate when they want and when they consider it expedient. the polish orthodox church uses this practice when

it is already christmas in one church and not yet christmas in another church . well, they celebrate two christmases. the bishop also visits one parish and greets the other parish in depending on how believers relate to this well, i would still like to remind you about the third aspect, which in this matter also plays an important role today, it is that if earlier in the middle ages the orthodox calendar in the old days of lviv, the old style, was perceived as the object of the identification of the orthodox population , because then it was like that. in our country, to this day, they say catholic christmas , polish christmas, and here there was an orthodox christmas, because in our country it will turn out now. in connection with the war. since we are from the moscow patriarchate, even from the imperial church, then the soviet church , here we are. here we are. this suffering should end sometime, and i think that now they will say

that there will be a lot of growth in moscow ukrainian christmas, that is, there is still a galan although it is not quite . as they say, the argument is the main argument for the transition to the new calendar. of course, it is that the new julian calendar corresponds to the real dates and numbers. my birthday is on december 25th, and i celebrate on january 7th . well, that’s wrong, listen, because that’s how it turned out . that is, we must, logically, astronomically correspond to the calendar dates that we celebrate, the last question we have literally two minutes. will you somehow coordinate these dates with the state because, for example, according to the new calendar, the veil should now be celebrated on october 1 instead of the 14th . and this is a public holiday, and it is also the day of

the defender of the defenders of ukraine, will the church somehow initiate coordination with the state of these days yes, of course, it was also yesterday at the synod and my initiative , including to turn to the e-e bodies of state power, the relevant learned comments e-e is about e-e postponement of the settlement of this question according to the church calendar according to the new style as we call it and according to the holidays that are tied to it , it is the intercession day of statehood. in fact, these are only two holidays that we celebrate together with the state, which fall on church holidays are public dates, and christmas on december 25 has already been declared a holiday by the state. tell me, please, and your brothers from the uoc mp have not

expressed a desire to join . maybe some individual parishes can join. join in due to the calendar order, it is difficult to talk with them about joining a single local church, but how did he proceed with the printing press and the parishioners of the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate in europe or in other countries, they will be forced to celebrate the holiday -th holidays according to the gregorian or yuli new julian calendar, since no one will arrange weekends specifically for the old style for them, that's why there is such a practice in europe. when are the holidays at all, if they are church holidays, they fall on a week when on working days, the celebration generally falls

on the day off , whether it is saturday or sunday , and then the service is served on that or the twelfth holiday or another. it is celebrated another time, on the first sunday, the bishop of the local city came to serve, and once again the apples were consecrated, and for the third time already after returning to ukraine. that's it i.e., the situation here is not saturday for a man of iron, not sunday for the sabbath, as christ the savior said, but er, saturday is for a person. we should not serve, serve the object , the object must serve us. thank you. very often. drabynka, we talked about the transition of the church to the new church calendar , thank you. well, after the war ends

, at least 10% of the population of ukraine will be either veterans or their relatives and loved ones , in an interview in an exclusive radio interview svoboda told the minister of veteran affairs, yulia laputina, what challenges the state faces in this regard, how successful the state is ready to overcome these challenges, listen to a fragment of this conversation, the number of citizens who will have veteran status after the war is predicted to increase at least fourfold. make up 5 million a-a people plus 4 million relatives and military servicemen relatives of the dead and all this is a burden on the state in the field of providing services that directly remain physical rehabilitation psychological rehabilitation social adaptation, is the state ready for such a scale? russia's aggression against ukraine actually created the preconditions for such an experience that exists now, including people with

combat experience, including you. the suffering experienced by relatives is still the suffering experienced internally transfer of a person, that is, there was no such thing at all, and no country in the world would be ready to accept such a challenge. but i will definitely clarify a little that when we are talking about 4 million people who will potentially be veterans, we we count all categories, that is, there will not be 4 + 5, there will be 4, approximately 4 to 5 million people or participants in combat operations who have gained combat experience, defending our independence , territorial integrity, sovereignty in battles , and of course people who were wounded and disabled as a result of the war also, these are members of the families of our soldiers and heroes who died, and of course, in general, these are members of all the families of those people who defended on the front

of ukraine , and approximately. relations among other countries that also have veterans themselves and a veteran policy . of course, the state has to work out the mechanism of how to prepare to meet all our soldiers, and after our victory, while active hostilities are still ongoing , to moderate them in such a way that they integrate into peaceful life, that is, this and his social security is his, for example , the introduction of a transparent procedure for obtaining housing for military personnel while still in service , these are appropriate medical guarantees, guarantees of mental health, and so on. and then when a person makes a decision to leave the army for civilian life about a year before demobilization, we as the ministry of veterans affairs must provide a person with a clear list

of tools where a person can realize himself , that is, first of all, of course, this is a screening of mental health and physical and then provide something to a person so that he can then work and integrate into civilian life, because if we look at the age of today 's military personnel who will become veterans tomorrow, it will be from 25 to 45 years old . that is, they are people of working age who the policy of purely orientation benefits or the provision of subsidies for utility services does not solve the issue of a person having combat experience and then he must come home to his family and integrate into the community , get the opportunity to retrain for some civilian specialty and then get a job, we just now when we talk about the mission of the minvet, what should he take care of? i have spoken to many of you , veterans directly, volunteer

movements, public organizations, well, there are many, and now there is no one who one way or another does not take care of the problems of the military and veterans. and it seemed to me that the most successful formulation was that the ministry of veterans should represent the interests of its beneficiaries, which are actually veterans in society, in your opinion, in the five years of work of the ministry of veterans in the two years of your term of office was it possible to establish this process of communication by society in order to, firstly, tell the cranes, and secondly, to lobby their interests , how far have we progressed in general in this matter, we conducted research with the group society's rating is very high expectations for veterans, they believe that veterans are always just, uh, strong people, ready to withstand everything ,

what they are. the veterans themselves, according to these polls, they understand that after the tragic experience they saw and the loss of comrades and injuries and mutilations and all these conditions of the front, they do not add health to anyone, and the veterans understand that they will need help, and society, on the other hand, idealizes them. society is also different. for example, in populated areas , it also depends on how many people there are fighting in different ways, and the attitudes of the military are very big. the challenge is that now we have here in conditionally we do not have peaceful settlements. because we have flights from all over the territory of ukraine and people are suffering all over the territory of ukraine, but when a military man comes on a short-term vacation, he does not, i'm sorry,

irritate the fact that people calmly walk around music is playing on the streets, in restaurants, everyone there behaves calmly and they are working in general, and we need to be calm . in this way, in fact, after the victory , we can start a facilitated dialogue between different layers of society, those who fought, those who did not fight, and those who worked in the rear, and this is also important, so that there were no uh here uh such vulnerabilities you can watch the full interview with yulia laputina on youtube channel radio svoboda and svoboda life will be back on the air tomorrow why am i here i have sensitive teeth eat ice cream pain cold air pain sweet pain, the dentist advised lacalutensitive, which effectively reduces the sensitivity of teeth. if i had known

the judicial program on thursday, may 25 at 4:40 p.m. control with tetyana shustrova on the espresso tv channel , the war is going on and not only for the territory , it is also a war for umy russia is throwing millions of naftodors to turn ukrainians into little russians ukraine will become russia analysis and analysis of information about ukraine by the russians of propagandists, specific facts and methods by which enemy propaganda turns people into obedient zombies, of course, information attacks by the russians in the project of chronicles of the information

war with olga len tuesday, thursday at 11:40 and friday at 13:00 on the espresso tv channel i congratulate olga len, this is the chronicle of combat actions, well, actually, the most are going on, because there are, as before , they continue in four, or rather , even five directions, it is clear that this is bakhmut , this is no longer a defense of bakhmut, it is rather an attempt to cover the russian forces in the area of ​​bakhmut some kind of a ring, make some kind of trap for them near avdiyivka, the fighting continues near maryanka near pervomaiskyi, our forces managed to repel the russian offensive, capture uh, 22 prisoners, that's enough , the offensive attempt and its desperation was serious , the operation was serious some raids were carried out by russian volunteers in

the area of ​​belgorod - this can also be considered a part of such a big big picture of actions, we will talk about it with our experts after we look at the map of hostilities in recent days well, then let's actually return to the conversation map of hostilities for the period of may 17-23, 2023 bahmut - this is not the end yet we are waiting for the continuation of the armed forces of ukraine control less than 1% of bahmut but are sharply counterattacking on its outskirts, the russians activated on in other areas of the front, but they overslept the breakthrough of their own border in belegorod region battle for bakhmut, despite the enemy's early statements about the capture of bakhmut, the armed forces of the russian federation still do not control

the southwestern gate, i.e. the main entrance to the city from kostyantynivka, as of the 294th day of the defense of the fortress city, the armed forces of ukraine bit into the defensive redoubts of the last kilometer of bakhmut in the area of ​​tchaikovsky and korsunska streets near the monument , the aircraft are given time to take up positions one to one and a half kilometers west of bakhmut on the main as a result of the almost 10-month battle for the city of foul, the destruction and disabling of about 100,000 enemies , the tying of the occupiers in one location and the impossibility of their powerful offensive on other areas of the front, the offensive was only dynamic as many expected. however, every day the armed forces of ukraine recapture precious meters of ukrainian land with the aim of occupying all the dominant heights and taking bakhmut into a semi-circle if the invaders want to use the city as a springboard for a new offensive and would rather fall into a deadly trap and be forced to leave bakhmut for a certain time

will become a half-ruined city as a pretext , meanwhile, the armed forces of ukraine are advancing in the direction of the commanding height to the west of the tick, from which it is good to shell the entire southern part of the city, as well as along berkiv reservoir in order to consolidate fire control over the northern part of the temporarily occupied bakhmut, in order to prevent a breakthrough of ukrainian soldiers, the rashists are forced to transfer reinforcements from other areas of the front, for example from near avdiivka , many russian prisoners indicate that these are freshly mobilized recruits and not fired upon , and therefore no more worthy reserves can find the topics of the advancement of the armed forces of ukraine indicates that very soon both the tick and the bekhivka will be freed from the russians and the bakhmut battle will pass into the mirror the opposite phase, when the defense forces attack from the flanks and the occupiers defend themselves in a destroyed place on the outskirts of donetsk, despite the transfer of reserves under bakhmut maryinka

, avdiivka and pervomaisk remain active areas of the front where the occupiers are still trying to implement their intentions, so north of avdiivka, the enemy broke through almost a kilometer to in the section from krasnohorivka to the railway branch, however, after a few days, the armed forces of ukraine counterattacked and partially pushed back the rashists, several consecutive attacks on pervomaisk ended with the armed forces of ukraine burning a couple of tanks and bmp, a significant number of enemy infantry died or were captured, the situation in the marines did not change on the map, but the samiroshists wrote in public that their command does not have a camera to go forward and is even considering the option of a tactical retreat. it is likely that such messages are part of an information attack that usually precedes a real one dirk's offensive in the enemy's anti-aircraft defense allowed the destruction of a significant amount of ammunition on the territory of the airfield in mospyny, which is southeast of donetsk . earlier, in this area, the armed forces of ukraine destroyed

the pantsyr s1 anti-aircraft missile complex, which was responsible for the defense of the airfield and not only his belgorod border breakthrough. for the second day in a row, soldiers from the russian volunteer corps are carrying out demilitarization operations on the territory of the belgorod region in russia . at first they broke through the borders and partially destroyed the border post in kozynka from here. in the village of hora podola in the district of the center of grayvoron , provoking considerable panic both among the local population and among the security forces, who were to ensure the defense of the city for the second day, the russian volunteer corps carried out a 20-km raid along the border through the population of the gorky and shchetynovka points, the rdk action forced the occupiers to transfer part of the troops from the front to the belgorod region, which once again proves that the trained human resources

of the russians are still lacking. it is interesting that 10 km from grayvoron in the village of golovchyno the storage of nuclear weapons that was not sufficiently protected by counterattack puzzles. on may 19 , the armed forces of ukraine destroyed the command posts of the armed forces , probably with storm shadow missiles of the russian federation in mariupol, berdyansk, in the last headquarters was on the territory of the airfield in the black sea approximately not far from the iron port that in the kherson region our air defense covering mykolaiv shot down the newest russian su-35 fighter , there is more than a week left until the end of may , but already now the armed forces of ukraine have established the absolute record for the destruction of enemy artillery in general, as if the military during the entire period of the full-scale war destroyed 3318 artillery installations, of which 397 were more than

10% in the 21st day of the month of may, may 23 became on an absolute record day, 40 artillery vehicles were destroyed, at the same time the defense force blew up another 32 air defense systems, which is also a significant indicator. to the sky we win daily, death to the enemies. i would also add to this the latest event - this is in the crimea. there is some new smoke on the crimean bridge. what the smoke is related to is not clear . it is also not clear in principle what it is. but well, they closed the crimean bridge, so interesting things are happening in crimea in general, it must be said, well , in the last two months, something interesting has been constantly happening, and this can also be considered such a serious preparation, because

, uh, at the moment, crimea has simply turned into one large warehouse of weapons for one large military base and of course it should be stopped there , for example, even in the dzharylgach reserve, they are simply destroying this reserve because they brought a lot of weapons there and they constantly use it there simply as such a transit zone to enter ukraine is very bad, of course. well, while our fighters are fighting, let's join together to help them. the espresso tv channel , together with the angel lviv car foundation and the european civilization foundation , is opening a new collection for cars, for our defenders at the front, cars are very necessary, you know this very well, they constantly break down, it’s like that. well , it’s like consumables, in fact, without it, it’s impossible to fight, and the soldiers really need to constantly move there, and well, this is a serious help 200

we are collecting uah 000 for a minibus for soldiers of the 79th brigade of the airmobile battalion, uah 240,000 for a pick-up truck for mortar fire fighters of the 210th separate special battalion, uah 260,000 for a pick-up truck for soldiers of the first company of the sixth crimean special battalion, and uah 300,000 for a legal complex our soldiers don't get tired below the tirashists let's not and in our desire to help you see now the qr-code scan immediately go to monobank and you can well just make your contribution right away or uh here is the card number for this bank uh take a picture for yourself or write it down in some way. well, you can also go to the broadcast on the espresso tv channel , there will definitely be uh, all these games, the code will be hanging all the time and there will be all this data so that you can take it

on youtube, also be sure to join necessary because this is something that is simply necessary, cars are needed at the front, it is necessary to take part in it well, actually, let's move on to the conversation with us, now there is oleksiy, the hetman , a reserve major of the ngu, a veteran of the russian-ukrainian war. greetings, mr. oleksiy. good day, let's start with this stories which took place in the belgorod region, because i consider this a serious story and it creates a new, somewhat new reality for us , that is, on may 22, fighters of the russian volunteer corps and the legion of freedom of russia launched this raid, it is still going on, although i understand that the russians really hoped that this was something how was it last time we went in we went out no we didn’t go in it worked out it continues and well it gives what are we trying to be more precise so what can the fighters of the russian volunteer battalion achieve with this and their newest and best

step, what can it be, how can it benefit, well, this is not a completely insignificant step, this is already the third step that they are taking, what can it do , they can establish control over this territory and then it will be at least demilitarized from the point of view of the regular six of the russian army, these rebels, they well what they are saying, what about this, it is known that the armed forces they are facing are the russian federation, they are not well, it seems that they are ready to come to the side of these insurgents because , er, the relations within the units of the russian insurgent groups are different from those in the regular units of the russian army, i'm sorry, there is no hazing there, there is no disdainful attitude of the commanders to their subordinates. it is quite possible that these will be something, as you say, very interesting to the same population, the local population, well , there was panic there, because there were messages
