[000:00:00;00] all whom we have brought into the party are really people who are with us at home in your city hell for a long time and this is another collaborator from novaya kakhovka shevchenko oleksandr oleksandrovich , born in 1986, in the local elections in 2020 he was a servant of the people to the novokakhova city council he promised the voters a bright the future, instead, an opportunity to earn money just appeared , he immediately hid the mandate and ran to the occupiers from march 6 of this year. agency, the eurocenter has become very useful in the system

of agitation and propaganda , the production and pasting of propaganda slogans. хозяйства выступать паручителем, you are doing a good job on you landing shevchenko took the position of the chief specialist of the department of interaction with changes in the occupying ministry of rural economy of the kherson region, he actively distributes interviews to russian scumbags , helps the occupiers to loot our lands and forces farmers to re-register their businesses according to the law of the kherson region, he denied full-scale aquaculture and 6-7 thousand hectares of water mirror the potential of the ukrainian figure shevchenko washed away but here is the potential adaptability is developed by collaborators, just like now

in the occupied territories, do you think that russia will protect you for faithful service, are you mistaken , or will they throw or eliminate the extra burden when no one needs a ladder to the swamps, the armed forces are close, feel close, no one will forgive you for treason, raise your hands and surrender to the clowns covered by shapito, join the creation of the program of collaborators, send information about the kremlin for sellers to our email address or simply on facebook, we will together send all the traitors in pursuit of the russian ship see you in a week on the air espresso

congratulations on the air the program of the ukrainian service of the voice of america time time i am its host ostap yarysh president joe baide nominated the general air force charlie brown for the position of chairman of the joint chiefs of staff of the us is expected that general mark my ily who currently fills this role will retire in the fall general charles brown the legendary f16 pilot who has four decades of experience and is known for his innovative military strategy general bran - he was one of the first to speak about the possibility of providing western fighter jets to ukraine. and here is how his nomination is commented in the pentagon. he is an incredibly capable and professional officer. his contribution everywhere is professionalism and deep leadership experience. i know this personally that i think that general brown should be an excellent officer in

any position . has an appropriate manner of drinking and has an excellent relationship with the president, the minister of defense and others charles brown is incredible, i am looking forward to his quick appointment , the training of ukrainian pilots on modern fighter jets can begin in the near future sometimes we are talking about days about this in an exclusive interview with the voice of america, the head of the office of the president of ukraine , andriy yarmak, expressed his hope that such efforts will be joined by the united states and andriy mak, and mykhailo komatovskyi spoke with such as the netherlands, denmark, france , etc. poland and who have declared their readiness to immediately start training our

pilots, now this is a very important step that opens up opportunities for the further supply of aircraft to ukraine . i would say that we are talking about days and we hope that the delivery of aircraft by the countries that have already declared their readiness will also begin very soon, we very much believe that it will be months for some very long time and we definitely expect the same it will happen from the side of the united states, we are interested and will do everything that depends on us to make everything happen. as soon as possible, planes for ukraine are definitely the protection of our

sky . this is obtaining such a necessary ukrainian advantage in the sky. important and meringue linguistically, the political statement itself, the decision itself, is a very big motivation for our soldiers , for our heroes, who are ready for the counteroffensive andriy hrymak, we talked about the aircraft coalition, the fighter coalition, and can you explain what it means to be in this coalition and who you heard from i 'm in because not all countries a-but all nato member countries, for example, have the f-15 and f-16 fighters we are talking about. and what exactly does it mean to be part of this coalition

, training begins with training on those strategic aircraft that are in orders of the country that joins, and we have already heard official statements from france, poland , denmark, great britain, and some other countries, and i think that this coalition will increase. for us, it is very important because this is another very powerful signal like this the sledge coalition was also born not just, but it works and we already have results, the tanks of our partners are already in ukraine and they are already doing their job, they are helping our soldiers to liberate our territory, this is the same thing, i am sure it will

happen with fighter planes, i am in 16 they only have a wide range of functions and can work in rather difficult conditions and do not require too complex infrastructure. although they have their weak points, in an interview with maria pruzh , retired lieutenant colonel dan hemto, who is called the deadliest f-16 pilot of the us aviation , colonel hampton, told about this in an interview last interview a lot of events happened there was a big announcement about the training of ukrainian pilots on the f16 this is not yet a decision on the transfer but do you think that these are already good steps in the right direction seption people still they are talking about this f16 transmission but no one has said yet where these planes will come from and this is more important than most people think all your pilots know this just because it is f16

is not enough you have to know what exactly this is for 16 just like in the case of able 29 there are different types of mig-29 different types of su-27 there are many different types of f16 so i really hope that when they talk about them and when they finally give these planes to ukraine they will be modern in 2016 and not 25-30 years old and in 2016 some country that just wants to get rid of them, you know, i have to mind you this is a big deal if you are going to send these planes to fight the russians they have to be the best f16's available with the latest radars the latest weapons so i hope someone with a mo puts it all together so as for f16 support without going into too much detail what the number of people needed for this what infrastructure is needed to keep these

planes in the air there were several forex this is another very good question and you know what many critics have said how difficult is it to maintain the f-16 and is it true i took off on the f16 from places in the middle east where i wouldn't drive by it is a very solid plane and can be maintained with much less infrastructure than people say however and your air force will also tell you this is the same plane that can't fly due to maintenance issues it's a waste aircraft so they need to be properly maintained what kind of car should you do maintenance on it has a regular maintenance schedule for various things the only thing the f-16 is quite vulnerable to is damage to the engine because it has such

a large exhaust hole to take in air if the runways and runways are not completely clear then anything on the ground can get stuck in the engine but as i said we flew these planes in iraq and afghanistan and other places where not very clean and in this in fact there is no problem from the point of view of training what do you think will be the main challenges for ukrainians who switch to the m16 is it the level of tactics or work with weapons the ukrainian pilots assuming that the first group ukrainian pilots who have undergone training. these are your experienced pilots . we don't need to teach them to fly. they know how to fly. we need to teach them how to fly.

pilot so the plane should be easy to control so i don't think there will be a problem here our typical what do we call the transition program when let's say there is an f-15 pilot who is going to transition to an f-16 or an a-10 pilot for them there is the transition program they go through, they are already pilots, they already have wings, they already have a very good command of the aircraft they have operated before, they just need to learn how to fly this aircraft, it always starts with academic classes, studying the aircraft systems in the emergency operations class, how to deal with all this, and then the simulator that the pilot who was used to another aircraft could now get used to the cockpit in this aircraft and we spend some time on that then you move on to more advanced topics like interception tactics close combat air combat tactics different types of bombs missiles guns everything else can operate this aircraft the pilot studies all these things

to understand how to integrate it into the aircraft and flight preparation is displayed you go from basic aerobatic maneuvers take off landings to being able to enter air combat dropping bombs and refueling in the air at night during the day and we spend a lot of time refueling in the air because we go all over the world and it's a big part of our business but i don't think that's going to be something that your pilot will definitely have to worry so there are advanced level tactics that they will learn gradually and at the end of any time say 4-5 months they will have a very good understanding of how it all works and how to use f16 a lot of things will be similar to what they already were just using this aircraft as it should be used this is different from the mig or su they are flying now speaking of the capabilities of the 16 this is a multi-role aircraft what do you think

will be its biggest advantage now for of ukraine for offensive defense in the long term to strengthen the defense capability of ukraine f16 like all fighters are an offensive weapon and i think that in addition to the capabilities of the jet plane the psychological benefit of getting these planes the presence of these planes that your people have seen these planes will have a huge value and it will also affect russians don't like western technology. they don't like 15 f16 f35 because russians who can think well know what these planes are capable of, so it can

affect what the russians plan to do this week in many american universities, graduation ceremonies are taking place. traditionally, famous people are invited to give speeches. a surprise for the students of johns hopkins university was the speech of volodymyr zelenskyi, who spoke via video link from kyiv in his ten-minute speech. zelenskyi was introduced to the students by a historian and journalist. focused on the importance of not wasting time. i am proud that ukraine does not waste a single day defending itself against russian terror, every day we do everything to become stronger, strengthen the protection of people, save more lives, the usa has also not lost a single day in helping ukraine in the age of russian aggression, president biden, a strong bipartisan coalition in congress and, above all , the american people, who in the previous generation were able to respond to the challenge and become a leader , leading the free world to protect

freedom in europe we ukrainians believe that a free and safe ukraine is the final step in the struggle to free europe from evil and tyranny, but zelenskyi is not the only representative of ukraine, who spoke before the graduates of american universities this year, invited other ukrainians to give speeches, including the ambassador of ukraine to the usa, oksana markarova, and the head of ukrposhta and his administrative staff . also, from this sunday, the second round of presidential elections will be held in turkey. klich doroglu is trying to mobilize his existing supporters and find new ones, in particular . he criticizes erdoğan for apparently being too narrow relations with russia, andriy hetman will tell more about the expectations from the elections in turkey, only half a percent was not enough for the current president of turkey, recep erdogan , to win in the first round of the elections, erdogan views the current vote as a mandate to complete his long-term policy

, the transition of turkey from a western- style democracy to a moderately islamic one a country with a special place in world politics , on the other hand, opposition leader kemal kylych doroglu promises a return to democracy, but bets on nationalists to win slogans in turkey every election about erdogan and this is a referendum on whether we want to continue this system or want to change it, so the opposition takes into account this nationalist wave and tries to make it an advantage, the opposition is fighting for a secular nationalist voter. that is, it is often the residents of large cities who adhere to the kimalist family principles of life despite everything because there is fatigue from the syrian afghan refugees and because of the difficult economic situation in the country there is a desire

to return to turkish nationalism in in the sense that there will be mostly turks in turkey, what erdogan is talking about is this kind of nationalism with a more uh, pan turkic uh , religious conservative streak for the election of erdogan, this is, for example, cooperation with azerbaijan, that is, what erdogan is talking about. this is the karabakh war - this is a victory in 2020, after the first round , there were accusations against erdoğan's team of falsifications, sociological polls before the vote gave him second place , does erdoğan reject the accusations, but he does not comment on them, but this time he plans to to have more observers at the polling stations - this is the winner, it is obvious that there were enough violations, we simply do not know how many half a hundred, one percent is more , as a rule, it is at most one or two percent, but it is impossible to know if you do not have observers and representatives in the election commissions before the second round, sharp

statements klich dear accuses erdoğan of too close relations with putin, which can cause dependence on russia here and the construction of the moscow nuclear power plant in turkey and an increase in the purchase of russian gas and the regime facilitating the export of world goods to russia, while the west imposes sanctions, erdoğan interrupted the accusation that this cooperation is in the interests of turkey, when daruga took a position that was tough enough, not criticizing russia's interference in the elections, criticizing turkey's independence from russia and even promising to join european sanctions, why don't we we heard earlier that this came from the side of the government, in this case , the portuguese, his spokesman, the spokesman of his advisors. on the contrary, we hear opposite messages that russia is important, that it is not it is necessary to destabilize the situation on the tourist

market, russian tourists are important in principle, this is an important partner, experts remind us of the financial assistance of russia and the gulf of kramper, which helped to avoid the financial crisis of the century, if not for the 10:50 billion dollars that came to turkey from russia from mid-august to september of last year year, already in october 2022, turkey was dealing with a significant economic crisis, so even today russia came to the rescue, saudi arabia also agreed to allocate 5 billion dollars, i predict that erdoğan is counting on permanent the influx of money from russia and the persian gulf countries to support his economic model, erdogan in his policy demonstrates that he wants to negotiate with the usa and the eu on an equal footing and demonstrably does not allow him to join nato sooner, while klich droglu promises to restore relations with the west , at the same time, experts predict that no matter who wins during the elections, the administration of the us president biden is interested in constructive

relations with the anchor, the administration can prepare an invitation for cooperation, because an incredible number of shafts will be allocated to the preservation of solidarity and the preservation of unity in ukraine, i don't want to say that western countries will impose something on ukraine, but if you start to predict what the negotiations with ukraine and russia will look like , you think that turkey can play a certain role. there is already a grain agreement that turkey has used its instruments . on sunday, the attention of the whole world will be focused on the fact that during the first round , every vote will be important andriy hetman oleksiy osyka voice of america meanwhile, in new york , women who help ukraine in its fight against russia were recognized, the goal of the women for

of ukraine to collect and tell the world real stories of the unsung heroines of this war, iryna solomko and pavlo terekhov, one of the most famous women conductors in the world, who spoke to the heroines of the project in new york, who is a hope of ukrainian origin, carolyn wilson, laureate of the women for ukraine project last year, she led the fight for ukraine on the musical front, having created a unique project, the ukrainian freedom orchestra went to the event, the conductor came to the family embroidery, this embroidery was made by my embroiderer 70 years ago, it was made in chernivtsi, where my family comes from, and for the first ukrainian concert of freedom last year in warsaw. my cousin nadia brought it by bus and said that it was a gift from my ukrainian family who wanted me to have this family heirloom. i am very proud not just to wear it, but to be a part of the ukrainian communities here in new york and to be ukrainian and especially today to celebrate all these women who are fighting for ukraine in the world

, each of us has such a personal mission. but together , i believe that these are huge and vitally important who will help win this war? and what is the price? to the co-organizers of the project, the goal is to tell the stories of women who joined the fight for ukraine. it is a young country. it has a very strong female spirit, but now that the war started, you could see the stress that this country is living in, so it is not easy anymore. softness, now we look at it differently, we see a strong, beautiful, young country. and this image is visualized by a young, beautiful woman , one of the most famous heroines of the project , a writer and the heiress of a hotel chain sheraton, aged before the sunset of the lotus and wore an embroidered dress in december, personally handed over eight cars to the police of the kyiv region to buy them, she put up for auction her wedding ring with an emerald stone 400 years old and it was found in a sunken ship in the atlantic ocean, in total

, 30 stories were collected for the project, part of the women from the united states, part from ukraine they represent completely different fields of business , journalism, marketing, culture, fashion, selfies , in fact, they did everything to create a butterfly effect, this expression actually sounds ukrainian as a flywheel of goodness so we need to create this wave of kindness and it should be like a snowball the speed of which should grow yuliya gershon is another laureate of the project she is the top model of the world the place of the world in 2018 there the unicef ambassador says since childhood she dreamed of presenting ukraine to the world but at first a full-scale invasion - this mission did not have a completely different sound. i am very happy that we paid off in such a way and the women of ukraine are now so active in all corners of the world and

they are just mountains turning over and i am very it's nice that i can also do something big from myself and something that will help our soldiers to be victorious sooner gershun received her award for helping to evacuate small ukrainians to european countries and the youngest ward was 10 days old yulia herself has been staying in kyiv since the beginning of the full-scale invasion i'm leaving only for humanitarian and diplomatic missions , i have a tour of europe. now i am in america, i am here so that the americans will understand that we are alive, people, that we need help, that is not yet nothing it's over, they felt it for their missions yulia has a unique vyshyvanka dress that tells the history of ukraine, the dress was made especially for her by ukrainian craftsmen, it is a dress exactly like a vyshyvanka, but she as a peace ambassador travels around the countries, our culture is shown, our feeling

is ours what is happening now with us and we want ukrainians they knew, they knew about us, about our qualities, they knew about our soul, not only about the price war, the west says - this is essentially the start of the project, its initiators saw how unique the media people of history are and now they are working to make the most luxurious documentary film from new york by iryna solomko on plutorekhov voice of america they were in shape we are finishing the program a story about ukrainian wedding traditions on the west coast of the usa unique for america the performance concert was staged by a professional band that usually performs historical sacred music master unusual for americans folk singing group helped a professional singer from ukraine who was forced to leave her home due to russian aggression, how do ukrainian

have never spoken ukrainian sing in the chapel say it was the first time they worked with such a special vocal technique to reproduce this unique ukrainian folk sound, i sing a lot in the choir soprano high notes where there is a lot of air but this sound is something completely different to master the technique of ukrainian folk singing and the members of the chapel were helped with pronunciation by ukrainian project participants, professional musicians, immigrants from kyiv and kovtun, and hanna tyshchenko. of course, this is the pronunciation. americans even take the word thank you from them. and it works out. thank you, thank you. you always

correct them. just 1,000%, eh. sometimes i even think that i am singing next to ukrainian women who spoke and sang all their lives . to be honest, i admire them because i know how difficult it is to sing in a language other than your own . for many visitors, the performance became the first song was a real discovery of a culture little known to them. it was very touching, piercing and very natural. i really appreciate the mixture of happiness and melancholy and humor. it was very emotional, very elegant. they sing about the mountains and the joy of bride women, about what is lost and what is gained with marriage. it is very special. project especially this time because how much russia
