[000:00:00;00] documents of the armed forces of ukraine, therefore, there is no reason to claim that something has started or ended, from what is happening at the front now, it is extremely difficult to draw any concrete conclusions, because we live in times of hybrid conflicts and a departure from traditional cannes, therefore, without knowing the plan that the ukrainian military command is trying to implement, say is it already an offensive or not? so far it is impossible. well, what about? well , she and the press. so you say a free press to speak. today, an american political publication wrote what is the future? aid to the united states from the united states to ukraine and even the international reputation of joe biden directly depends on the success of the offensive a-a and they say that if we are unsuccessful here , ukraine can be inclined to some

diplomatic negotiations, is this possible, this is an opinion of a leak a-a what plans will people implement who invested billions of dollars in ukraine's victory . well, it seems to me that if huge sums of money are invested in ensuring that we win, it is unlikely that the same people will incline the ukrainian military and political leadership to some diplomatic agreements will be settled - the settlement of the conflict in a different way than the complete defeat of russia and on the ruins of this defeat the further imposition of our will on the party that lost, i will just add here that today the us ministry of defense announced the allocation of a new package of military aid to ukraine with a total cost of two and one billion dollars, that's before our conversation , uh, well, let me then go to uh, before

the destruction of the kakhovka hpp today, the sbu published an intercepted conversation in which it is claimed that these are two russian the military is discussing how exactly the hydroelectric power station was blown up. let's listen to it and then discuss the topic. the problem is that if you look at it, it is punished by cooling the reactor. it's fine with you. they made themselves

. that's a minute after 0, they didn't do it there . this is our sabotage group, they wanted it. this is the type of dam, they are afraid of using it according to the plan in poland. in general, i can conclude from the conversation that two elderly competent persons are communicating, who are quite far from military matters. nova kakhovka and the dam of the power plant are under the control of the russian federation. for this they will be brought to justice sooner or later for such crimes there is no time limit for the destruction of such a powerful object

as an electric dam requires a huge preparations and dozens of explosives, no subversive group is physically unable to bring so much, so this is all nonsense , while it could be implemented, such objects are being prepared for destruction in advance. a way to either prevent our progress to the coast of the sea of ​​azov and the exit to the lighthouse of the necks to the occupied crimea or an attempt to complicate the pursuit of the retreat of russian troops by the armed forces of ukraine and the second option. strictly speaking, this is an accident of kindness. it cannot be ruled out yet. i also understand you. then the question comes out of this. and how then does the destruction of the hydroelectric power plant change

the course of the war? it does not change how we tried to liberate our sovereign territory, and we will do it in the future for russia. in the same way nothing changes, and they wanted to destroy ukrainian statehood, and they will do it. and in the future, the war with the explosion of the kahovsky dam at the station will change the course of the operation in this direction, what is the way , relatively speaking, we can now hope that now the russian military will withdraw from the left bank of the kherson oblast. well, because the water prevents them from conducting any operations, and the russian military will enter there, and this may help them liberate these territories from the russian side . predicted flooding zones, all this led to the fact that during the first two days, russia

lost its advanced positions on the left bank, several warehouses with weapons and food, a significant amount of military equipment, all this was simply drowned, a decision was made by the russian command to withdraw the troops from the flooding zone in various areas, it is from 5 to 15 km , respectively, yesterday , the russian garrison was evacuated from the city of oleshka . thus, we see the impact on the russian side has become more complicated for us the question of forcing the dnieper in nizhny currents, the question of defensive islands , the kinbur spit from the peninsula temporarily became an island, factors affecting both sides will be washed away for the first time minefields, mines are floating all the way to the city of odesa, where are all these communications now

no one can say any actions, er, in the direction from north to south or vice versa, er , all these actions must be preceded by engineering developments, and another moment, even when the water, er, mud dries up, and there will er, different things it will take a long time to fill the territory, some quick maneuvers of the advance of equipment on wet soil and the same silt. well, i will document the actions of the troops, so it seems to me that exactly in the territories that are now the flooding zone of hostilities in the next six months, most likely it will not be in the next six months, i think to the cold until the ground becomes solid, i understand you well. do you have any guesses, or maybe you know, based on the available information, which section of the front

is now open, after bakhmut, it may become like this. is the most active in terms of battles, or conditional bakhmut , it is unlikely that bakhmut will repeat itself it's just such a hot media topic and there are conversations about it every day, something epic, uh, russia is making incredible efforts there, but next to the chaos is , for example, the city of maryinka, a settlement measuring 1 km by four, which the russian 150 motorized rifle division cannot capture almost year, we control the western part for about a quarter of the remnants of this settlement, the fighting is fierce, but ours is holding the defense, the same situation in avdiivka, the enemy was not able to capture the city, the enemy tried to surround the city. similarly, none of this came out today , respectively. i think that precisely in marinka and in

avdeivke, the enemy will make efforts to reach the lines convenient for defense before the start of a large-scale offensive by the armed forces of ukraine. therefore, we should expect the enemy's activation in the kupyan direction, where he has a rather significant a group of about 45,000 military personnel, and judging by the strength of the relief and the direction of the river, the potential direction of their action from north to south is traced there, with the goal of pressing on the flank of our defense, so to speak, to roll it up and take control of kupyansk, this is kharkiv, let me remind you of kupyansk well, you know, for the second day in a row, we have seen the news that there are explosions in luhansk, and with this in mind, i also wanted to ask you if you already see any signs of the active use of british storm long-range missiles

shadow, which ukraine received some time ago, it could be them or something else . and how can we summarize the use of these weapons by ukraine in general now ? according to one data, up to 300 km, according to the other 500, this air-based cruise missile is precisely fast and difficult to intercept air defense and the use of these missiles in the operational depth of the enemy gives the armed forces of ukraine a tangible advantage, the enemy is forced to narrow down and concentrate its logistics nodes, it has to, well, more carefully hide the units that once together, first of all, in luhansk, fall under

a well-aimed blow even before well, and accordingly hide its control system, on the example of the first tank army, it has already created, in addition to the main command post two spare command posts that are constantly forced to maneuver and this complicates the management of troops, that is, even the very presence of missiles without their use forces the enemy to be active , move more and pay less attention to management troop management, the impact is significant, thank you very much for your comment, er, viktor kavlyuk, expert of the defense strategies center , reserve colonel, we talked about the situation on the front line, thank you, the transfer of russian tactical nuclear weapons to belarus will begin after july 7-8, in fact, in a month, when the construction of facilities for this was announced at least today by vladimir putin

during his meeting with oleksandr lukashenko, these two met again today in sochi, then in march he announced that russia will place tactical nuclear weapons in belarus at the end of may, i will remind the minister of defense of the two countries , serhiy shoigu and viktor hryenin, signed the relevant documents , and at the same time, alexander lukashenko said that the delivery of nuclear ammunition to belarus has already begun. and how will all this be in terms of education, especially europe, will react on the placement of nuclear weapons in belarus and whether russia will actually be punished for this, if so, who and for the destruction, we will also talk now , for a start, let's look at a fragment of this

the meeting of putin and lukashenka according to the plan on the 8th of july 8th, the preparation for the corresponding weapons is ending and we will immediately start the event related to the placement of the corresponding weapons on your territory . it will be in russian. what consequences will this whole story have or can have? now we will talk to our the broadcasts are joined by petr saundtrevych from the member of the european parliament from lithuania. hello, we planned to talk and we will definitely talk about how the world and the west will react to the uh, to the hydroelectric power plant, to the kakhovskaya gesture, what happened there. but here let's start with this meeting between putin and lukashenko , where they announced today that tactical nuclear weapons will be deployed in belarus

can change the security architecture in europe. i think that this will happen , of course, no one wants it and does not expect it. for putin, this is another chance to increase his influence on belarus , this is definitely a larger presence of the russian federation military, this is already strategic , as they say, the weapons and control will be carried out very, very probably effectively in this territory belarus, and for lukashenka himself, you know, he seems to be becoming a big microcosm here , people may draw attention to him, there may even be such statements in the west that some politicians will appear that well, look, something needs to be done with this lukashenka, maybe it is necessary

they will start some uh and some kind of business - conduct a dialogue, give him something so that in the end he would stop and change his mind and so on and so on eh i don't believe in this eh policy it will not lead to why uh, it's just such a thing. i would say provocative action on the part of uh, lukashenko, he is a great master in this, uh, in these games, but of course you have to see it, and uh , practically an attempt to intimidate the west is in front of nato, and i will pour myself out there, because the distance here is already small, but of course, who knows why this tactical nuclear weapon is placed there, er, it can , by the way, be a bummer for ukraine as well, because er, russia continues to carry out its aggression and i think that they are looking for different demands of er, pavliyatnykh

situation. that is, you think that if this happens, lukashenko, on the contrary, will strengthen his political influence . and maybe there will be people in europe who will want to negotiate with him in some way , and you only know that with such a classic approach that appeared the problem is that it is necessary to somehow er buy ice cream to this policy so that it would pay attention , but such a policy will not lead to anything, you know, simply nothing i think we must clearly understand and give an understanding of eh and eh moscow and minsk or what is the deployment of eh causing eh against the action and they are then recognized е as if targets eh

of a possible retaliatory strike and i really hope that this will be said by no one it will be a frightened voice eh clearly eh pronounced by nato and we will follow it unconditionally here is another news that appeared today that is not news published by the american publication politics about what i already mentioned today they write that the white house is expecting a counteroffensive of ukrainian troops because the day before, joe biden's reputation is also worth it. well, here it is probably possible, not to understand, but to assume that once the united states gives greater support to ukraine, then probably if the counteroffensive will somehow go badly maybe it will affect joe biden's reputation. i don't know. but if you've seen similar worries in europe, have you ever heard something similar that the leaders of european countries are worried about because of the ukrainian counteroffensive because it can somehow

affect their reputation? i don't know how much it can say about the reputation of western politicians of the highest politicians , of course you can have a certain influence because the military financial aid is of a large size, of course even more is needed if these politicians want to completely save their reputation because, er, they will help er, save their reputation , they will help er , ukraine so much. the fate of ukraine is worth it, that's why you know, i'm sure that all the calculations, all the planning of these, and that means military operations, and the action is carried out very clearly, for

me, there is no doubt that the ukrainian the military of ukraine, they are recognized as masters of their business, they have already proven that in many cases, so let's go through it, as they say, don't shake it from every explosion there , or so on, because eh, we must understand that eh, russian aggression against ukraine is existential er means an existential challenge to the entire west. and that's why it's not necessary to talk about any images or uh, what uh, uh, evaluations. and here we need to say who will win this war and what kind of face will you have? thank you very much for your comment five hours of meals through a member of the european parliament from lithuania was on radio svoboda. we continue to monitor the situation in the kherson region . film crews of radio svoboda will continue to work there . subscribe to the radio svoboda channel on social networks. instagram telegram

on weekdays at 20:00 repeat at 12:10 slava to ukraine, this is a verdict program, my name is serhiy rudenko. greetings to all, the president of russia, vladimir putin announced that the ukrainian army went on a counteroffensive, according to the kremlin grandfather, about the use of the strategic reserves of the ukrainian army, he was informed by intelligence, against this background, the russians continue to search kherson, where the evacuation of those ukrainians who were affected by the explosion of the kakhovka hpp today who yesterday the occupiers are hitting the city with artillery and hail on monday already on june 12 in paris a meeting between scholz duda and macron is planned for which security guarantees of ukraine will be discussed, these security guarantees will then be discussed at the july nato summit to be held in vilnius, meanwhile, russia continues to lose manpower and equipment in ukraine, russia has already lost 213,000,770

people in the country in the last day alone, the armed forces of ukraine destroyed 1,010 orks with the beginning of the great war, the russians have already lost 3,901 tanks, 7,600 armored fighting vehicles , 3,7002 artillery systems, 599 rocket launchers , 359 anti-aircraft weapons in ukraine of defense 314 aircraft 299 helicopters 6410 is a unit of automotive equipment 18 ships boats 1 171 cruise missiles 3247 drones 502 units of special equipment putin has everything going according to plan three versions of the development of the war ukraine is almost in nato well and the consequences of the tragedy from the explosion of the kakhovka hpp about this and about we will talk about other things during the next hour , i want to introduce today's guest - he is a politician-diplomat and minister how are things in ukraine in 2007-2009 volodymyr hryshko

mr. volodymyr good day good day to you health thank you for being with us on the air i congratulate you mr. serhiy good health and to all our dear tv viewers mr. volodymyr let's start with a global disaster that, in principle, came not only to ukraine but also to the world , it is the undermining of the kakhova hpp by the russian occupiers ukraine now overcomes the consequences of this disaster, but it is obvious that these consequences will be felt not only by ukraine, but also by the whole world. well, accordingly, the world must come to a cause-and-effect relationship, why it happened , how it happened and in what way it happened what is meant is the recognition that the russians must get away from the ukrainian territory and it was the arrival of the russians that led to the destruction of this dam. why according to you, mr. volodymyr

, is there no global reaction to this disaster , you know mr. serhiy, i think that the reason for the festive connection is that everyone in the west has long been understood well, it will be necessary to apologize in the last word to the losers and er, not to not very intelligent people in order not to follow this connection, well, it is obvious to everyone that the russian federation is guilty of all the crimes committed in ukraine er and i think all this talk about some kind of investigation, about some kind of commission, well, it's all completely delusional, and i explain this wavering exclusively with one moment, fear, fear, of entering into the necessity of life, there is very little action in response, because if we look at

what happened at the kakhovsky hpp, and we are already talking about it, it has been discussed, it is actually the use of weapons of mass destruction , it is actually something that can be compared with tactical nuclear weapons in terms of their consequences, not everything else, only without radioactive contamination territory, everything else is present, it is necessary to at least somehow react to it, and somehow this means very harshly and saying that such things must be answered and answered in a serious way, that is exactly what the collective event does not want to make experience, that is precisely why he invents absolute nonsense, as they say in you in galicia, where you are now. and they are trying to invent something to somehow delay the adoption of this necessary decision, and that's why there will be commissions, that's why there will be conversations about the fact that

something else needs to be clarified, even though it's been a long time for everyone it is clear that there will be a way. in this way, there will be an attempt to move away from the need to make decisions. this is actually how i see the consequences of everything that happened at this dam and why the west continues to play with this uncertainty. it is afraid of making decisions. this is my version of what is happening, volodymyr, what our correspondent dmytro didora sees, who worked in kherson yesterday, and is currently in mykolaiv. please, how is the situation developing in kherson and mykolaiv? i understand that the main wave of refugees from kherson, those who were evacuated, is now moving to mykolaiv

. what are the conditions there for those who suffered from this disaster, and is everything enough? in mykolaiv, i also feel this tragedy, it is meant there, i know there is also flooding from this disaster well, in fact , you can see the consequences of the explosion of the kakhovskaya hpp in mykolaiv, just behind me, this is the neighborhood of namyv , and you can see that the gazebos of one of local cafes have washed up, and as the locals report, there was a beach here, which is now completely flooded. as for those displaced from kherson to mykolaiv, the regional administration told us that people do not stay here, but they go or further to some other safe regions of our country and can stay in

kherson and i will say that the majority really remain in the regions of kherson that are not flooded and are waiting until the high water leaves the city and it will be possible to return to their homes and about mykolaiv. i will return to mykolaiv when the water level in the water area is kept at to the meter mark, i would like to remind you that the mayor oleksandr senkevich said that the point at 1 m and five centimeters would be critical, yesterday at 11:00 p.m. the water reached such a mark, but at night i had already gone to bed and according to information from the minister of community development of the territory and infrastructure of ukraine oleksandr kubrakov, we know that dangerous substances ended up in the dnieper due to the explosion of the kakhovka hpp, and let's hear what exactly it is, is it a threat
