[000:00:00;00] a weapon because of nuclear energy, conventionally speaking, i will not say a weapon because, er, it is in the hands of the russians, and the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant is a weapon , because russia is a terrorist country that keeps a nuclear facility under control for 15 months, which has never happened before stories when terrorists seized some nuclear facility, a nuclear plant, a nuclear plant and blackmailed the whole world. biden says that the reality that the russians can use tactical nuclear weapons is also high enough. increase, further increase in rates, because he always plays to increase rates, first , the annexation of crimea, then the occupation of certain areas of donetsk and luhansk regions, then

further, then the big war, then kiev, then the undermining of the khust hydroelectric power plant . more that is, it can be listed, does he constantly constantly play for the promotion of exhibitions, or are there many more of these dishes and which ones can he play on, or are there many more of these bets left ? well, serhiy, i think that in this list it would be worth starting to admire chornobyl nuclear plant and the looting of one and a half thousand radioactive samples that they brought out, who dug trenches in this red forest, and in fact, the radioactive background there was raised several times on the outskirts of the nuclear plant already after the capture of the chernobyl nuclear plant , russia should have been recognized as a nuclear terrorist, but it turned out that the seizure of the chernobyl nuclear power plant had to wait for the seizure

of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant and strikes on the infrastructure of other nuclear power plants, in particular the southern ukrainian one, in my opinion, khmelnytsky well, but not on the plant itself on its infrastructure, so that's all complex action is such blackmail on the part of putin, who wants to force the world to take his side...well, let's say to make the raped woman pay for the pleasure she received , metaphorically speaking. well, this was complete barbarism and contempt for international law therefore, right along with the assessment of these er this entire history by president biden , we see a similar assessment, for example, of the ex -vice president er pence, that is, the world is not

driven by putin's blackmail and the further putin tries to disrupt it, so to speak some check, which would shock me, but it seems to me that here he actually crossed the line from the kakhov hpp. after which , among the world leaders, the opinion remained that it was necessary to come to an agreement with putin. it seems to me that now the final irreversible is beginning to dominate the opinion that russia in its current form should not exist is only surprising that the speed of weapons delivery is not to ukraine, it is not too high that it costs the lives of ukrainian heroes, it is very sad, but for now we

cannot speed up the processes, but here is the minister of foreign affairs affairs of the russian federation, sergey lavrov says that russia will overcome everything, nothing will stop it, and he says that the west is trying to destroy russia or prigozhin, which , according to him, was organized by the west. russia not only survived, but also became stronger. let's listen to what lavrov said. national interests. thank you. вы беспокоитесь but uh, you don't need to do this, uh, russia is always from any prefixes . and it's louder than the tension and it's hard to name. что этот процесс начался what do you think, mr. volodymyr, what do they feel that this is the process that has begun

, this is the process, what kind of process, and he talked about the fact that the ukrainian government is stronger than ever, this is a purely russian style , one should always puff up one's cheeks in the face of fear well, we cannot say how fast this the crane will but the system built by putin and his entourage , all the laurels are scum, this system will destroy them, it has already become clear because, in fact, the russian economy will not withstand this , but neither will the population, for me very this is an important historical thesis that russia cannot withstand more than 18 months of war on its own. and here is the confirmation of this thesis, and there was a mutiny when russia did not win . it begins to devour itself, and it seems to me that right now the most important issue is what to force russia to devour itself

as quickly as possible, it can really, well, let's say so , save part of the weapons for the world, which is in no hurry to transfer the newest, newest types of weapons for ukraine, that is, the attempted mutiny organized by prigozhin, it is too much ended early, if it had stretched out a little in time, processes had already begun in russia that would be difficult to stop and control correctly. i understand. here it is, here it is. here a very interesting collision arises. the fact is that with the linear development of the plot, putin is less likely to go to the polls in march of next year and i got the feeling that this whole rebellion by prigozhin is connected with speeding up the circumstances in order to imitate the election

campaign er and conduct it much earlier for a reason against the background of these statements of the russian the establishment, the russian media twisted the statement of the head of the cec telepamfilova, i.e. she only ate it herself, indicates that somewhere in the recesses of putin's cranium is a greenhouse script about the immediate and quick re-election of the president of russia in order to fix him on 7 years, that is, to hold elections earlier in time while it is still at its peak and so far there is no defeat of the russian army, it is lost so far , the economic fuck and defeats by the ukrainian troops have not well, let's say that the broad masses

of the russian population have not been stirred up. a civil war could bury the imperial ambitions of russia in this and lead to the consequences that we all hope for until the collapse of russia. the most difficult thing here is who will be the subjects of such a war, because we, well, from the ukrainian experience, we still look at inertia russia as the formation of different national territories, these are different , these are autonomous republics, autonomous regions, but we have such a well-established stereotyped position that these supposedly nations dream of state independence, in fact, state independence in russia is ripe. maybe 15 subjects a maximum of a and that 10, everything else must somehow be, somehow survive within the framework of russia

although if you look at russia as a territory of megacities, because in russia there are 20 megacities, well, cities of millionaires, to be more precise, and the agglomerations of these cities can essentially be an analogue of the american ones of states or new states. it looks like the trans-urals may fall because there is a big, uh, insult on the brain, because 70% of all russian exports are generated in the urals, and uh, more than 80% of all finances are concentrated in moscow . thank you, mr. volodymyr, for the conversation. it was volodymyr tsibulko, political expert, friends, we work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our social networks and on the youtube platform, for those who are currently watching us on youtube, please vote in our poll, we are asking you about this,

operations in urban conditions. major good afternoon i congratulate you and thank you for joining our broadcast. so, first of all, i would like to hear your opinion on the attempted armed rebellion in russia. russia, but we understand that really what happened was worthy of the entire western world and we understand that the ukrainian russian army, which was the infamous second army

of the world, now it has even turned out to be inferior - is the ukrainian inferior or are they intimidating the westerners countries like the situation in russia, taking into account that russia is a nuclear state and that some group of armed people can take control of nuclear facilities or military units where nuclear weapons are located, how does the west react to this, that is, it is better legitimate bad government rather than illegitimate bad government, of course the west is concerned with the fact that the position in which russia has found itself is a huge problem. i think that it is important for everyone to think

about which side we can join , today we are witnessing how a rebel the russian state rebel has moved to belarus to one of putin's friends and is forming a military camp there preparing some kind of military camp where these military thugs are difficult to say about them in a different way they can also threaten belarus and ukraine according to your opinion is there a threat from vaner, who is now in belarus and is moving to belarus, e-e, towards ukraine, is this a threat to ukrainians, this is what we have to be vigilant, ukraine must be vigilant, because wagners in this country, of course,

become a thunderstorm, not for the general military campaign, but if i were, for example, a belarusian, that is, i understand that we know that lukashenko is only putin's chamberlain, and that's why we really have to think about why it all turned out like that . why did these war criminals switch sides and go to the belarusians? over the past few days in ukraine , the peace formula is being discussed, and volodymyr zelenskyi, the president of ukraine , says that there can be no freezing of the conflict, because the freezing of the conflict is only a postponed war in the future, one more war, or maybe two. and maybe three wars today, the former president of the united states of america, donald trump, said that in order to achieve peace

in ukraine, it is necessary to agree with russia's occupation of part of the ukrainian territories, saying that peace can only be in exchange for this territory , which is already controlled by russia in your opinion, what was the formula for peace that could be at the moment because in ukraine there is a clear formula for peace that we return all our territories and then we go to peace talks with trump, another theory, what do you think about it, the academies taught us strategic planning and of course if we say that ah, zelenskyi always repeats that the government, that the people of the people of ukraine will be exactly the same. and they will have a choice

. what are we doing, but the people support exactly the option that all russians should all leave the territory of ukraine, we understand at what cost this is happening very a lot of blood is spilled, but it turns out that only ukraine, with the help of the west, can help - help ukraine expel the russian invaders from its sovereign territories, so i think that there can be no such negotiations until then during the last 15 months of the first great war, we see how the russians are engaged in e-e terror on a planetary scale, they threaten not only ukrainians, but also europe, and in this world they threaten

the zaporizhia nuclear power plant with nuclear weapons, and president biden said that the reality is the use of e- the tactical level of nuclear weapons is quite high today, our intelligence, ukrainian intelligence says that the russians have already prepared everything to commit a terrorist act at the zaporizhzhia npp , which has been under the control of under the control of the russian federation all over the world terrorists are treated quite simply, they are not negotiated with, they are not simply killed, why do you think the world does not have a conversation with putin as a terrorist, that is, the language of force and the language of weapons , the question is, in fact, i was pleased

to see that american leaders really they are addressing publicly, calling putin a terrorist of the world's largest scale, and this is such a powerful step that drives putin to delusions, and therefore, if putin really causes a nuclear disaster, if he uses nuclear weapons, the consequences will not force wait for yourself nato will use its article number five and there will be an immediate reaction because putin and his generals they have to understand what the consequences of such actions will be and i am really convinced that i do not think that this will happen because all terrorists understand that their power is in power and

we need to contain it. putin perfectly understands that in any of these two scenarios, either the use of tactical nuclear weapons or a nuclear disaster on zaporozhye, and this will be the end of his regime , mr. major, in two weeks in vilnius , nato itself must take place, and the main question is which the status or what perspective the north atlantic alliance will open for ukraine, taking into account your military experience , what can you say about the ukrainian army now and about the success of the ukrainian army during the last fifteen months, especially, because the russians have always boasted that they have the second army in the world they always treated us with disdain, then they gave

nato forces, and it was ukraine, thanks to their own merits , they, ukrainians, strengthened nato, and of course we understand that the armed forces of ukraine are now fighting not only for the preservation of their sovereignty, because the world order of the rule of law is at stake. ukraine is now defending the global principles of democracy and freedom throughout the world, and that is why i think that the signal that nato itself can give in vilnius is just the hope that ukraine will get what it needs in order to defeat the enemy. and now, after all, we we see that ukraine is now coping with the task using a very small percentage of the western aid that has come to it, they need more and that is why we really

expect ukraine's membership in nato we we need ukraine. ukraine will be the strongest component in the future. president zelenskyi says that if there is no positive signal for ukraine, then it makes no sense for him to participate in this summit. shouldn't ukraine somehow be represented at a high level? they say nato should give everything. after all, some positive signal for ukraine if, if too much , he will not be able to give ukraine this positive signal, how will it affect the russian-ukrainian war, i just found there will be positive signals, namely those in vilnius and we have already seen and heard the words of the secretary general that more than 50 countries

, even those that are not members of the north atlantic alliance , are now expressing their solidarity with ukraine in ukraine. i am sure that there will be positive moments. on her knees and she will continue to fight and this is an example for all nato member countries and that is why it is precisely these members who support ukraine, they believe that is why we hope that during this summit - ukraine will be invited to join nato , in particular the capabilities of why nato still exists today in an interview with the washington post , the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine valeryi zaluzhnyi said the following: that the number of nato aircraft on duty near our western borders near ukraine is twice as large as

the number russian planes that are destroying our positions, why can’t we take at least a third of it from there and transfer it here , do you know? majorov’s answer to this question is politics, what to provide and not to provide to ukraine, this is such a political decision or not to annoy putin, of course, all the leaders are driven by the fear of not annoying putin, or whether putin might give in to something bigger , we cannot answer now, but there are such fears because we understand what is in russia's warehouses, ukraine is now restraining the biggest aggressor and the biggest destroyer of democracy

in europe, the countries in europe and, for example, outside the borders, such as the usa. they have and must provide ukraine with fighter jets. and in 16, they need to be given more. and tanks need to be provided with more attack systems and the like, mr. major, before the great war in ukraine, predictions were made about the extent to which russia can fight in ukraine, i.e., what losses it may suffer after it withdraws, what may be the casualties on that side, how many soldiers may die on that side, what will be critical for the russian federation, but we see that so far there is no limit to this, there are more than 200,000 dead and probably somewhere around 700,000 wounded in the russian federation

. the russian federation has lost thousands of cars, hundreds of airplanes, helicopters. according to you, is there a limit somewhere? after which putin and russia will say everything we are getting out of ukraine we got everything we wanted from the ukrainians, it is meant that the ukrainians gave such an insult to the russians and that they will simply leave and never come here again i think that there is such a limit because we we understand that despite the weakness of his regime

, putin still has the power to stop this invasion and withdraw his troops. many people they do not want to die in ukraine for russia, a lot of people are fleeing, and in order not to be mobilized, this is also an indicator, that is , of course, a certain one was born in the russian military. if you are now well, if you force people to fight for russia and if you also involve private military companies that is, we see that there should be results and there are none. russia does not have the proper equipment, they do not have the proper leadership in order to continue the struggle to hold the territories that they conquered for months. that is, all this is a situation that is now bursting at the seams, it will eventually stop, because you can throw a lot of people into the furnace of war , you can attract artillery and heavy weapons , the entire military potential, but in the

end there is no result, mr. major, a fairly simple and short question about your approach still admits that vladimir putin can be a participant in negotiations with the leaders of western countries, or will anyone in the world give him a hand, or is he just a figure who simply played a role and should go beyond the political field this is a great question, i really don't know if putin will survive this war, he has made so many strategic mistakes, and really, when we talk about the world political arena , in fact, he will not receive such recognition , it will not be like it was once, now he is on the path of a global terrorist, that is, he is

i may have already said that it is in his power to end the war at any moment . but do any of the western leaders consider him as a future partner? i think not. and the people around putin will learn that russia is in the form it is now in order for russia to survive. it is still necessary to sit down at the negotiating table to leave ukraine and they really should be brought to justice in order to compensate for all the damage they have caused to ukraine russia has already lost in ukraine when will there be a certain turning point reliable soon thank you panama yura for the conversation and i wish all the best, we will meet in the next broadcasts. glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes . thank you. this was john spencer , a retired united states army major, an expert
