[000:00:00;00] we need some skeptical voices in the congress before that, speaker of the house of representatives kevin mccarthy said that the house of representatives will not consider the proposal of sanatoriums for additional funding for ukraine . we will talk about this and other things with our congressional correspondent, kateryna lisova, katya. congratulations . thank you for joining the broadcast here. congratulations with dad so, what is this statement by kina mccarthy , they say yes and is there really now a good reason to worry about the financing of support for ukraine for the moment, in fact, money for ukraine, they are already included in the defense budget of the united states of america, but some republican senators, in particular , senator lindsey graham, emphasize that these funds are not enough and demand the agreement of an additional bill on the allocation of additional funds for defense with some for aid to ukraine, in turn, the main republican in the chamber the speaker of representatives, kevin mccarthy, said that the sanatorium initiative will not pass in the house of representatives, it is worth noting that kevin

mccarthy did not say that he is against aid are additional funds allocated to ukraine for defense and assistance to ukraine? the problem is purely procedural. kevin mccarthy has one vision of how to allocate these funds, and the senators have another vision. therefore, in the future , we should expect a tug-of-war between the republicans of the senate and by the republicans of the house of representatives, this may actually delay the allocation of additional aid to ukraine, but not block it at all, at least as of now, it does not look like it will really happen we will develop, we will really monitor this, and you know, we are also interested in what other legislators, in particular, one of the party members in the leadership map , says about his statement. do they support additional funding for ukraine ? zaporizhia's statements are necessary for kevin mccarthy to attract the support of right-wing republicans in the house of representatives, while at the same time, they are even extreme right-wing and even conservative republicans with whom i spoke claim that additional

funds for defense and assistance to ukraine should eventually be found, i suggest listening to the statement as republicans, democrats, with whom i spoke just now, the bill on additional funding is definitely supported in the house of representatives . the question is whether speaker mccarthy will bring this bill to a vote. there is no doubt that most representatives of congress agree that it is necessary to continue helping our ukrainian partners. the ukrainians are doing a great job. lethal and humanitarian levels , and we are working to unite our allies, so i hope that the speaker will bring to a vote initiatives related to the struggle for the freedom of ukraine, this is in line with american values, war , which mccarthy understood, said that he would not do it right now, so we will go through the standard process of allocating funds for defense, and then we

will see if the request meets our needs regarding the confrontation with tyrannical china as well as our supporters of israel, ukraine and southern ukraine, but i have repeatedly stated that the defense budget proposed by president biden is not enough for the united states to lead on all these fronts at the same time also repeatedly stated that our european allies should do more, i think that speaker mccarthy should make some statements to satisfy certain people in his own party, but in general, you will see that the majority of members of the house of representatives and the senate strongly support the allocation of funding that president biden will deem necessary. we we believe in the continuation of the struggle and support of the ukrainian people ukraine we will find a way to get the necessary funding for ukraine there are many opportunities

we will find a way to do it you know my position on this this is my number one priority we will make sure that ukraine has everything they need and that they defeat russia we must make sure that the support for ukraine and the allocation of the aid necessary for this success continues if we do not do this it will be irresponsible and undermine america's authority in everything the world, especially when it comes to security and defense issues are definitely important. these comments are one more important thing that i would like to ask you in the house of representatives has registered a bill that allows ukrainians who have a so-called humanitarian password to stay in the united states please explain what the bill is about, it is called the act on the adaptation of ukrainians, it was registered by members of the ukrainian focus in the house of representatives this wednesday, in general, the document should allow ukrainians with the status of a humanitarian password to stay in the united states and get a called the green card, that is, the right to permanent

residence, noted that ukrainians who entered the united states of america in february 2022 may soon face the fact that the term and conditions of their stay in the united states of america are already running out, so if a new legislative process is not created soon, a legal process will be created that will legitimize their stay in the united states of america, then many ukrainians who arrived after the full-scale invasion may find themselves with the need to be deported and deportations in general, in the united states of america, therefore , a lot of attention is focused on this law in particular by ukrainians who are currently in communication i think the information is absolutely very useful, the planes of ukrainians who are now in the united states under this program, which is here , thank you very much for your analysis, for such information , we will take kateryna lisunova to contact the us congress and move on to other stories , a team of american instructors trained the ukrainian military even before the invasion of russia to ukraine a few days before february 24.

last year, the americans were ordered to evacuate from ukraine. two months later, they resumed and expanded the training of ukrainians in germany. by the american military has not been made public until now, but voice of america pentagon correspondent karla babb offers an exclusive look at their mission. this is the first released video of the american military training ukrainians after the start of a large-scale invasion of russia from april 2022. the american military has trained more than 10,000 ukrainian soldiers, and here are these three the soldiers of task force geter who were training it became very overwhelming for me because i say well you have a mission but i'm just not sure how we we are going to do this, a soldier of the gator task force waited on the border with the ukrainian military with them, he flew all the way to germany, ate and slept with them, went to

the training area, then returned, brought them back to the border, waved them goodbye and told them to ask for a pecloberl with 2000 there this is training at a base in western ukraine where national guard forces from all over the united states have been training the ukrainian military about 160 soldiers from task force geter from the florida national guard have arrived at a combat training center near the city yavoriv in november 2021, we conducted high -level training, and then the geopolitical situation changed, aid began to arrive in ukraine, we had to return to the user level, you have certain weapons that are provided to you by the international community, the united states of america , and we have to teach you how to use them , but on february 12, when russian troops were concentrated on the border with ukraine , the americans received a terrible order

to evacuate from ukraine, it was difficult to leave them, we told them that our entire mission revolved around their support, i will be honest had two soldiers killed in action but it was one of my hardest days it was sad and i was disappointed less than 40 hours task force gayter left ukraine 10 days later russia invaded ukraine we knew these people and now they are fighting to defend their life i didn't feel well we don't do anything but could help ukrainian military gave age or instead of surrender task force gaiter taught ukrainians to use javelins bunker destroyers and stinger missiles these

weapons turned out to be necessary but last year 13 march last year, russia hit the poyavoriv training ground with missiles, i woke up to text messages from my phone and when i look at the photos, i can tell which buildings are burning in the center of yavoriv, ​​this building was not damaged, but this destroyed one , ukrainians lived in them. our friends, people i knew died that morning it was difficult to be aloof and watch all this, but not two months ago, the usa began to send more and more lethal weapons to ukraine, and his team received a new order. teach ukrainians to shoot 777 over the next ten days, m-77 howitzers are similar to those shown in the video obtained by voice of america during training in germany last spring, major hagemeier says he will never forget the same first group at grafenwehr training, among whom were acquaintances to him, ukrainian soldiers. we saw them at the border

, familiar faces, tired of the war. they came with packages that contained everything they had, maybe a spare uniform, maybe some hundred-year-old belongings. it was a very emotional moment when i got the opportunity to hug those guys for several ukrainian american soldiers we would have contacted their families they found a way to come to grafenwer there were many tears not only from their relatives but from all the soldiers who were there it was incredible ukrainian military yevhen took all the photos that night when he met with his wife nina and little son we blurred yevgeny's face for his safety already i love you i just remember he said i love you i'm happy that we had that moment to be able

to touch his wife and child this the most important thing in life it gave me and other fighters who were lucky enough to see their families psychological strength was expanded to include training with mobile rocket launchers known as heimers and dozens of other types of weapons also began maintenance classes so that ukrainians could keep weapons in working order for us this did not stop from april to the end of summer in the classes we had several classes that went one by one fighting we didn't just divide the javelin but said ok this is how you shoot them here is the best way to use this system you have to find an area where you can hide let the enemy come close bolt floor you know i think everyone was a little surprised that today the ukrainians are all fighting everyone except us we weren't really

surprised we worked hand in hand with these guys they were well prepared what i do today will change the situation on the battlefield tomorrow and the consequences for europe and maybe even for the rest of the world can hold another 5-10-20 40 years of attacks you know i think everyone was somewhat surprised by the fact that today the ukrainians are all fighting, everyone except us we were not really surprised, we worked hand in hand with these guys, they were well prepared, my soul is filled with joy because you know, you gave them exactly what the guys need, in my opinion , i am very lucky to be part of history, we made a difference and already the next group of american soldiers is preparing to continue the training mission karla bab andriy hetman voice of america this is the story about the training

of the ukrainian military and we continue with by american news, official charges of misconduct have been brought against former us president donald trump, and classified documents in the 38 -count indictment refer to violations of federal laws regarding the unauthorized storage of information about national defense . this crime is punishable by up to 10 years in prison. it is expected that ex- the president will appear before the court on tuesday. trump himself has already declared that he is not guilty and accused the biden administration of corruption and persecution before the elections. donald trump appears in a number of court cases while he is trying to return to the position of president in 2024 and at the end i want to show you an interview with the ukrainian singer jamala. she is convinced that the victory of ukraine should be the full return

of all ukrainian territories, now the performer together with her as a musician, she went on her first tour of north america at concerts, she holds auctions and gives the collected funds to local ukrainian volunteers , the singer told about this in an interview with iryna solomko in new york, your performance at the eurovision song contest this year is a return to this stage, and you understand the understanding that instead of kyiv , it was liverpool. for me, it was an incredibly important event, especially during the war. i think we all understood. yes, we won the eurovision song contest in the 22nd year. but still, we have to be responsible for the participants and for all the guests to talk about the fact that it was difficult to hold the contest in ukraine because we are under fire every day because

every day we people die and liverpool yes, in general, britain found such a solution, they held eurovision from the face of ukraine. i think it was the best option for us, that's why they invested all the money, they made it sufficiently ukrainian in my opinion, when the colors of our country were played, music was played, representatives were invited and - and the winners of the eurovision song contest, eh, it was a real holiday, at the end they said glory to ukraine, but you were afraid, you didn’t hide it for quite a long time, it was on the verge of fouls, as they say, but it happened in principle and in the past in the same year, kalush spoke in mariupol like this. that is, we remember this , is eurovision becoming more political? how do you think that there is a war in your country, you represent your country with a war and you cannot separate yourself and for

me in this exit even for 30 seconds, three seconds, i still managed to say glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, glory to the shadows of liverpool, i was a little scared because i knew that they were asking you can't go there and all that, that is, they asked you well, me personally no, but the team. so she was warned but we're not me, i don't know, it seemed to me that it was right and appropriate , because it's this slogan that lives with us all our lives, and now it had a new meaning, and when we say glory to the heroes, we know exactly who are ours

heroes, your creativity has always been like this. well, you can't say it's political either, but with such a public position, the war made it even worse. i didn't choose to be an activist, but since february 24 , my life has completely changed when i i took the children abroad and started a national team the trip of cultural diplomacy, i collected funds for everything that was needed and cooperated with the team and with various funds, and there it is, the amount is more than 90 million euros, and this is really what inspired me not to give up going further , no matter how difficult it was and the second of the other artists who a-a maybe there were doubting that maybe the music is not on time or their voice will not be heard for me at all this crimea and this love is such a manifesto of the world to me and to what extent and well , because you also said, i think you wanted to ask

him planned before the war in the information itself really collected from there for quite a long time, for three years we worked on the album there, collected the arrangements and when we did it all from the 20th of 2021, in september, we gathered the whole team. it is more than 80 musicians. we gathered everyone. we started recording later in december. i started recording the vocals are like that. imagine at the time of the war, on february 24, i was going through the mixing process, and when the war started, my second thought was that everything was like that, i lost the album and serhiy krutsenko, who, again, was the producer of the album, he said i have to reach and he reached after 20 weeks

album and unfortunately, this february 23rd, he died, his heart could not withstand all this , and we can say that not only the songs i sing are filled with the suffering of the struggle for the family, the suffering of the struggle for the homeland, but also the album itself, even where he was presented by liverpool well, you told the bbc, well, it’s just, well, i don’t know. the cosmic level , after all, still helps in this struggle to protect your people, who are currently experiencing oppression in the ranks . i wanted to believe that it helps at least a little. hmmm, we did it before the start we made liverpool on the screens a-a huge statements, statements that told about the statistics of today's e-e and the rest in the crimea and what's more , the e-e is fresh

. er, she er was stolen er and then accused of espionage and this story i wanted to tell before the start of the presentation we are now in the united states er this is your second tour yes no this is the first absolutely the second in new york but the first tour, so today i'm of course a-a with tour as a musician with my best songs, i named this tour like a birdne suddenly because for me the symbol of the bird is quite ukrainian and it is about freedom it is about power sold lots i also collected star lots not only uh not only

there are some things of my own that were there in video clips or so iconic for me from the scenes of uh different and also i will have a stamp signed zaluzhne i have a football m i have shevchenko there there is eh from andriy khlyvnyuk boombox lots so there is enough for all of our ukrainian musicians, everyone provided me with them, you know, accompanied me on the first tour, which i thank them all very much for how the war changed you and your family because i i know that you already know that it was very important for you in the beginning to take the boys and children out so that they would be safe, so what is the situation now , the situation is not easy because i am very sad because i don't see the children much ah, but on the other hand, i

will not to complain because they are safe then they are still abroad so they are in warsaw they are in warsaw, they are in warsaw, and there we have a constant rotation, then my husband's parents, then all of us, i am sad because i am losing myself. well, it is probably now a victim of each of us who really does something without stopping, because that's how i would really like to see them with us now they have such an interesting year now , they are 5 years old, and on the 19th of june, selim will be three years old. well, i don't know, i want them to live in ukraine . i want them to live in ukraine. good abroad, so that they

stay there, on the contrary, i do everything possible so that we they came back sooner. and you talk to them about the war. they know that in ukraine, the older man understands the war better. of course, he is five years old. and he constantly says, oh, mom , even if a bomb doesn't fly to us there, it's hard when children talk about the war and so on. yesterday was children's protection day and a child was killed in kyiv it's impossible to hear it's impossible to see and again i it was difficult to gather myself in front of the stage it was a bit like this again such a struggle you know you have to go on stage to carry

the opposite er positive faith because the tears now it's enough and you have to get this strength from somewhere and you don't want to fall into such a state , but what helps me is that i sing and it shows how it is, such magic happens when you go out and you don't seem to know at all i can sing i ca n't and you go out, you see people's eyes, you sing the first note there, and you see how they simply straighten their shoulders, their eyes light up, and that's it, that's it. that's how the exchange of energy is, and you think, no , no, you're in your place, everything is as it should be, and it's better. this victory will be for you because surely for you there will be no return without crimea

it will not be complete for crimea, so the victory is still a complete return of our territories. i don't know when it will happen, but i know for sure that you can't just keep the enemy behind your back, because that's how it happens. for eight years , we kept the enemy there who was accumulating a weapon that is very close to us that is killing us, well, this is illogical, as there are no guarantees for me none, but it would seem as if the whole world promised us and there were some agreements, all this is worthless, that is, we have to protect ourselves download the voice mobile application

yard in the village of skraiai, kharkiv region , she was walking on the street with her twin brother, and her mother noticed that the brother ran into the house, but the girl was not there, the mother of two-year-old violetta immediately turned to the police, more than a thousand people joined the search, the law enforcement officers interviewed all local residents, inspected every house, but it was not possible to find the girl, until suddenly on the fourth day of the search, when it seemed that there were almost no chances of success, as the participants of the search operation themselves say, a real miracle happened, the searchers combed the forest and at that moment, the girl moaned and she was heard by a very dense forest. maybe if she hadn't frozen at this moment, maybe they wouldn't have noticed it was such a small ball that was sitting in the bushes in
