[000:00:00;00] in different parts of the front, in different parts of the offensive, it was noted that there are successful counteroffensive actions in three directions , what can we talk about? of course, without harming the front, first of all, it is worth saying that our offensive actions in these directions continue since last week and according to the results of last week , -e liberated both in the south and in the eastern e-e and in the south in the east of ukraine e more than 100 m² e km of ukrainian land e-e and villages e-e towns that were liberated these are about seven settlements e there returned e-e the ukrainian government has returned, control over the mslls has been returned, it is fair to ukraine, and here it must be said that in the course of the offensive operation, our troops managed to advance

in the direction of bakhmut in the area of ​​the bank reservoir by 250 m and in the turkish direction by 200 m and in the past day in the berdyansk direction on different sections of this section of the front from 500 m to a kilometer , the area of ​​the territory taken under control in the berdyansk direction was up to three square kilometers, it is clear that on other uh, the front is pushing back in other directions, uh, the russian occupiers, uh, our troops are on the defensive, but uh, the russian troops are unable to carry out offensive actions, they are ineffective uh, for the past week and uh, for the first two days of this during the week, not a single position was lost. in other directions, where the armed forces of ukraine are

on the defensive, but they are also trying to use local counterattack measures in certain areas of the front, the enemy is doing everything to prevent their capture of positions, and is actively using assault and e-army aviation is also actively shelling the positions of the ukrainian defenders with artillery of literally the entire spectrum , actually conducting intense artillery fire, our troops during the offensive encounter solid minefields, but the engineers are actively working and preparing passages for the offensive of ukrainian equipment e-e all this is combined with the constant counterattacks of the russian occupiers e-e sub-divisions on e-e russian armored vehicles

with the mass use of so-called rounds and e drones of the committee are now very active bloody battles in the areas of malai tokmachka, novodanilivka, near makarivka, in the direction of nyazhnivka, maryinka, er, berry, in the direction of bakhmut, and er, near mesele, in the direction of lyman, mr. andriy, you mentioned that in some places the occupiers also resort to counteroffensive actions. can we talk about some differences in the tactical actions of the russian army in different directions , is it possible to draw certain conclusions from this that some direction is more important for them? that the russian occupiers have been preparing for ukrainian offensive actions for a long time. well, it should be remembered that in fact, more than six months ago

, headlines about the ukrainian counteroffensive first appeared in the western press, later all the information about the ukrainian counteroffensive was picked up by russian propagandists who themselves began to actually prepare uh, you know, ideologically prepare to mediately warm up their own russian electorate and prepare them for the fact that uh, they will have to flee from the captured ukrainian lands. and i will remind you that then it was literally about six months ago, the russian occupiers began a very active evacuation not only from the territory of the zaporizhzhia and kherson regions of donetsk, but also from the territory of the crimea . in fact, six months ago, we observed such unprecedented measures when the families of the russian occupiers, who had been sitting confidently in crimea since 2014, and here are these the e-e officers began to evacuate their families, so to speak , as they said, to the mainland, that is, the e-e territory

of the russian federation, so much so that the russian occupiers were frightened by the e-e counteroffensive , in fact 98% of the air time of the russian propaganda media were devoted to this ukrainian counterattack, as much as they were afraid of it, they were preparing their electorate for this, and it is necessary to understand that the armed forces of the russian federation were also preparing, they were actually building up defensive lines, building up mine barriers, certain fortifications, eh, you know here, actually commenting on eh- these are the words of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine , general valery zaluzhny, who said that it is obvious that it is difficult for us. it will be difficult, but we

will definitely not be ashamed of what we are doing, mr. andrii, just before the broadcast , you mentioned the information propaganda of the russian authorities, and just before the broadcast, putin's statement appeared about the alleged large losses of ukrainian equipment . let's listen, i'll ask a further question, they lost more than 16 tanks and heard 360 armored vehicles of different types, this is only what we see. as part of the equipment, in fact, there are more of them on the part of ukraine, and according to my estimates, this is approximately 25, and maybe 30% of

the volume of this equipment that was delivered. i heard, on the example of the magur brigade, how the losses of the ukrainian side are exaggerated . valery markos commented and what is the point such statements from the kremlin, what do they testify to in your opinion? well, i just heard the sound of vladimir putin's number one head of state, this is exactly a new idea, i don't know self-confidence , it's obvious. well, we know that in fact , his advisers have been communicating with putin for a very long time. papochok and from there. in other words, putin needed to present some kind of victory reports, not to inform him that in fact the ukrainians are successful, they are moving, they are conducting active offensive actions, so they are trying to explain their defeats at the front by the fact that they are allegedly fighting powerfully, destroying the ukrainian

equipment and they draw some incredible numbers there . i want to remind you that last week, well, it literally became a meme. the ministry of defense released a video of the destruction of of ukrainian equipment, i.e. some video from some surveillance cameras or some special devices where the two operators of these russian weapons are allegedly talking to each other and they are fixing in the sight some uh some equipment moving across the field and they are saying ukrainian the tank is what we destroy, but it’s somehow very strange, but these so-called ukrainian tanks resemble , uh, actually, uh, john deere combines that just work in the field and collect wheat . well, all the analysts have already told about this, and

you even made fun of the terrorist prigozhin everything themselves video, that is, it is obvious that such statements and such videos are needed more for, so to speak, the reassurance of the russian people , the russian electorate with the traditional russian slogan that the so-called sfo is an idiot, according to the plan, mr. andriy, thank you very much for taking the time join the broadcast andriy kovalev, press officer of the 112th brigade of the territorial defense of the armed forces of ukraine , thank you, the russian army lost almost 380 square kilometers of the control zone, this was the conclusion reached by the analysts of the institute for the study of war, according to their data, due to the destruction of the kakhovka hpp, which caused a flood and the dnipro pushed back the invaders to a distance of about 10 km, depriving them of control over at least 12 settlements. in addition , experts note that the flood destroyed many russian field fortifications on the first line of defense

, which the invaders intended to use . in particular, the rapid flooding probably forced the retreat of russian personnel and military equipment from the main russian concentration points in oleshki and bare prystan, which the occupiers, i will remind you, used for the shelling of kherson and other settlements on the right bank of kherson roman kostenko, people's deputy and member of the defense committee, a military serviceman joins our broadcast, roman my greetings, good evening, i provided data from the institute for the study of war, which indicates that the occupiers have lost control over hundreds of square kilometers of territory and actually it is clear that changes in the terrain can affect the capabilities of the ukrainian army exactly and how it will be reflected in the maneuverable so-called war , well, let's say that where the occupiers lost

control is a zone, it has remained so uncontrolled and chaotic, it is controlled there, let’s say more probably visually with the help of drones or satellites of cases uh, because this is the entire territory, it usually remains flooded and access there is basically one other party but of course, lately we see it's the occupiers who want to start slowly restoring control, starting to bring in your subversive groups on boats, plant their flooded houses and somehow control the water, that's why the water really spilled and now they have, let's say, only visual control remains, this has become a wider reservoir even for if there used to be a kilometer of river somewhere , now it is five or more kilometers there, and of course now hostilities will be conducted, let's say if before they fought on the islands and shot they used small arms. now, i think even more

artillery will be used, because the islands have gone under water and between us now there is a large number, a large area of ​​the reservoir, in fact, those reports from the ministry of defense that russian troops are blowing up any dams today even small ones, even from which one or two are flooded, and the land is also for this purpose, to slow down the movement or to change tactics , well, including to slow down the movement of our troops in order, for example, to have them advance somewhere in separate directions in order for them to reduce, let's say, the width of the probable offensive, so that you understand that here the water is coming, no one will advance, but here we are concentrating our troops and will wait for the ukrainian army, so of course they use such tactics, and used e-e stalin used such tactics and is pressing. let me say that the communists and

nazis during the second world war also did the same regarding the promotion of the armed forces of ukraine. today we are talking about three directions, the liberation of seven settlements has been confirmed, and from the experience of the de-occupation of the territory in kharkiv oblast and kherson oblast. how long can these last? stabilization measures in the liberated villages until the moment when the civilian military administration can enter there well , everything depends on how far the front line will move away from these e-e settlements and i will say that if in kharkiv er-e rapidly er-e developed so er-er offensive and er-er population centers which, in principle, we liberated them as soon as they rose to the rear, then there you can immediately er-er take stabilization measures and immediately the administration and in the same way in kherson oblast, when the enemy was withdrawing, we quickly restored our power in these occupied territories, as for these settlements that were liberated, but they actually became front-line and here it will be, i think

, at the level of them, they will pass or along the front line, or it will be somewhere near and there now we will attack them against them, so depending on the range at which they are, how safe is it, how soon will it be there, if they are all on the summer front now, then i think the first question that will arise is the question of clearing them from the enemy and trying to gain a foothold there and provide some kind of first aid if there is a civilian population there, about some kind of administrative measures there. hm, the establishment of ukrainian power will be so superficial. i think the military will be in charge there, first of all, russia loses a soldier not for every 48 cm of territory in bakhmut. this is what the british ministry of defense said today, and the sbu published another interrogation and the prisoner tells what the order was from the russians . that the authorities of khakassia have stopped publishing obituaries

about those killed in ukraine at the request of the ministry of defense of the russian federation, they say that such open data about the dead military wagner are used by journalists of the bbc media zone to calculate the losses of the russian federation a why do you think the kremlin is afraid to announce the losses if russian propaganda is actually already presenting the war in ukraine as a matter of the survival of russia itself? why do they hide the losses? yes, laws are very often in war, this happens, we do not remember not only our war and other conflicts where he during this, he does not talk about losses directly, but we talk, for example, about the loss of the enemy, it is that one of these information channels that can have a very strong influence because of the fact that this is exactly what they see on the russians and it gradually begins to influence them, they see the real figures of the dead in

ukraine when they were going to take ukraine in three days and practically the ukrainian army has already been destroyed, and they have obituaries from every day more and more. of course, they see that the russian people can soon start asking questions. i don't know how soon and whether there is anyone there who can add questions , but still, if they are already hiding from them micrologists, that's why this time was always higher , that 's why i think because they understand that if this continues, the question i will ask them is nothing to answer. no less, the russian media announced today the alleged liquidation in ukraine of the chief of staff of the 35th combined arms army of the soviet union, general yura serhii hochhev, this information is also voiced by russian so-called military personnel. the ministry of defense of ukraine does not confirm or comment

on russian recruits. do you know anything about this incident and why do the deaths of this hot-headed person pay special attention in general? well, i heard this information because he is the chief of staff - he is a big figure in the army, the chief of staff of the army is a really big figure. when some high-ranking russian official is destroyed. i think that is why they pay attention. you just have to look at the way he came directly. i think he is one of those terrorists who came to our land and participated directly in all those crimes that were constantly, as far as we can see, pay attention to the destruction of high-ranking officials, this is such a signal to the russian and elite and high -production military that no one in them can be safe and that not only russian soldiers will die in our country literally for a few minutes and unravel they wrote about the magazine, sorry, about the fact that the usa intends to provide ukraine with tank shells with depleted

uranium so that the tiarams that come as part of american aid are better provided , but so far at the level of discussion, although britain has already announced that it will transfer, why do you think they are hesitant in washington to give projectiles that are more effective against russian tanks, it is difficult to say, i guess i don't want such a scandal again, as you remember when we were transferred to bmw and such a projectile and the russians, er, picked it up let's say so, er- after the scandal , people began to shout that this is the use of weapons , e. and i think that there will be no problems with their supply, the slippery hopeful abrams will come to us in order

to help liberate our territory , they heard p. the serviceman was with us in direct contact, thank you western countries are intensifying military aid to ukraine to help the counteroffensive of the ukrainian armed forces, french president manel macron announced this after a meeting with german chancellor lavamsholtz and the president of poland, after all what happened the day before in paris, i will remind you that they talked about the security guarantee for ukraine and the prospects of its membership in nato. at the press conference, macron also stated that the counteroffensive of ukraine has been going on for several days and should lead to conditions that will allow kyiv to start negotiations on coal in the most profitable way, so the ukrainian counteroffensive began a few days ago, it was carefully and methodically planned by military leaders who for a little more than a year demonstrated their

determination, bravery and perfection of their tactics and organization, and therefore this offensive can to last several weeks, even months, we did everything to help in this within the limits that we set for ourselves at the beginning of the conflict , to impose sanctions on russia so that it would stop hostilities, to help ukraine to resist and return its territories, but never to attack russia and avoid any form of escalation of the year specifically well, the president of poland reminded that ukraine is waiting for a clear signal for the prospect of membership in nato , according to him, this is the most important task, and i hope that the upcoming nato summit in vilnius will bring good news for kyiv the future of ukraine's membership is clearly visible to the people of vlyansk and as they say to me. in ukraine itself there is a light at the end of the tunnel that ukrainians want to see when it comes to membership in nato, it will appear thanks to the decisions we

will make in vilnius, our position is clear germany, france and poland are close by ukraine, we support the country in political , humanitarian, financial and armed protection from russian aggression . ukraine continues to speak with the diplomat roman bezsmertny with us direction in communication p roman greetings good day poland is determined for ukraine's accession to nato france germany agrees but not so categorically this is the verbatim wording from the german edition and the usa and the politician is still 5 weeks before the summit wrote that the western allies do not have a unified position regarding security guarantees and a clear algorithm for ukraine to join the alliance . what do you think kyiv can expect at the summit in

vilnius, what can we expect first of all it should be noted that it is important that together with germany and france there were poles, this is already very important because before this meeting it was obvious and clear that warsaw and in particular the president there, he is an active lobbyist of ukraine's position regarding the fastest possible nato membership, but paris and berlin were very slowly moving towards the position of not only membership and simply active support of ukraine, and actually this meeting that took place and which is possibly happening now in washington, they also use the position that ukraine can

hope for loyalty from my point of view the optimal a-a option and here both sides need to be prudent and calm and understand that ukraine must move at a fairly fast pace towards nato, that is, take such a position that, in freedom, nato makes organizational decisions that show the rapprochement of ukraine and nato, and the second is a long-term, large-scale support of ukraine by the force factor. that is, it is weapons , military equipment, it is possible to serve the military and thus come to a decision that was shown that nato provides assistance, it cooperates and it launches certain organizational mechanism, this will somewhat calm the emotions, which from the point of view of the vilnius summit, where it is obvious that the main issue may be the election of the next general secretary or the determination of the candidacy of a key

a-a so that these two things , they will say each other including the issue of electing the successor of the current general secretary , it is also an issue of ukraine, because they are being tested by all six candidates who are talking about subject a, how do they see the admission procedure of ukraine in nato and how they are ready to interact with the ukrainian political and military leadership , well, the ukrainian authorities have repeatedly heard statements that we need specifics or otherwise there is no point in participating in the summit in vilnius. it should literally be a statement that the invitation will be at the summit already in washington and what are the actual possibilities of receiving such a signal, well, from my point of view, in the current situation, we should gradually forget about

the so-called security guarantees, and we should limit ourselves thesis, as many ukrainian experts correctly say, guarantees of ukraine's accession to nato, and obviously we need to talk about uh, let's say at the anniversary summit in washington, is it possible to talk about some years there and so on, but these things, such as the pdc and security guarantees, they need to be taken from the lexicon to clean up slowly, but here it is very important that the thesis about the guarantee of entry is defined for a certain period, along with the provision of permanent assistance, not to use nato as a transit unit for issues of providing assistance there by national governments, armies, and actually nato as a subject in helping ukraine in the fight against russian aggression. these two things, they formulate, as it were , the understanding that nato is ready to announce

an invitation to ukraine, and ukraine accepts help and is ready to cooperate. in what organizational forms will it be sewn? here it is already an art let's say so to the management of the leadership of nato and ukraine and what can ukraine do in this month, which is left to itself ? can radically change the situation because the majority of those who are now communicating with national governments, the european government, the world government and the leaders of a-a tie the course of events to the results of the counter-offensive , moreover, they ask questions that even relate to the daily result of success today, tomorrow, and so on, so if the advance will proceed at the planned pace, i do not rule out that it will also be the moment of the announcement

of the invitation to ukraine, said the secretary general of the north atlantic alliance jen soltonberg believes that the offensive of ukrainian forces in the territory occupied by russia in the south-east showed the first signs of success. i quote further, we must be prepared for the fact that this offensive will be bloody and difficult. on the basis of which western officials draw all these conclusions. they have more information than the authorities give to ukrainian citizens. is this an assumption ? and in general, what does it mean? we must be ready . the fact is that western governments and nato leadership are very well informed and very well, and moreover, they are informed, including by the ukrainian

and political military leadership . it must be clearly stated that the capabilities of intelligence, especially the technical capabilities of intelligence and which countries, such as great britain, france, germany, italy, even the baltic states, are colossal. scandinavia or the united states of america, that is, they illuminate virtually all events that take place not only on the front line, but also far in the rear, moreover, on the basis of this analysis from his information they help the ukrainian armed forces, ukrainian intelligence a and in this part there is constant cooperation now regarding the fact that they sometimes say this . reinsurance all the more. one thing is when people are at a huge distance from the flames of war itself . it's completely different. the columns are next to it. yes, it must

be understood that even the leaders of the west do not feel the rhythm of war, combat operations, and so on. further, it is necessary to understand that is why they sometimes talk too much and so on, but here you have to be objective and understand the information they have. they have objective information, how to read it. well, i will tell you. yes, i can read it as a specialist in his field, and diplomacy will be read in his own way by intelligence officers, political staff and so on, but it is clear to me that they have enough reliable information , readiness, we must be ready for what, for more help to ukraine or for just a bloody counteroffensive, which will be as a result

which there will be great losses on both sides. not only an increase in aid, but also an increase in the quality component, and i can tell you that for me it is a matter of supplying new armored vehicles and, let's say, separate units of the missile and space forces, it's only a matter of time, this cooperation will increase for sure since i am convinced that i will enter this war in the army, including the nato countries, it is also a matter of time. well, it is already clear today that this is how events are developing, which will require the fullest assistance and weapons and equipment ammunition , including the help of army units, i thank you very much for joining the broadcast roman bezsmertny diploma in communication thank you fungus on the nails there are solutions there are discounts on medical varnish amoderna neo 10% in
