, your wishes, or maybe how you can help to join such stories. thank you gal. next, we will talk about the counteroffensive, the situation at the front, about the fact that the ukrainian military continues the counteroffensive , and the secretary of the national security and defense council of ukraine, oleksiy danilov, said that the main thing the current task of the armed forces of ukraine is the maximum destruction of the manpower of military equipment, fuel depots and command posts of the russian army. colleagues from the radio svoboda przyvostvo vremya project even succeeded it is not boring to get into a village that was liberated two weeks ago in donetsk region and see how the ukrainian military overcomes the mini-barricade there, see the report of andrii kuzakov, hear the whistle, fall into the grass, do not enter, and in general, be very, very careful, and most importantly, do not touch me, don't kick me , don't hit me either no, terebovlya is heavily mined. yes, we are given such an instruction by the fighters of the talager battalion before entering

the village of neskuchna, which they liberated during the current counteroffensive as part of the 128th territorial defense brigade right here the assault began, now groups were coming in under mortars, artillery fire, someone flew to the veres club, this settlement shows what the ukrainian military faces when they advance for the first time, what they already mentioned is a lot of mines. this is how these russian soldiers left them inactive in their former place of deployment, they did not have time to deploy them completely fluorine is interrupted there. well , in short, this is the genitals and everything continues. in short, it is a sappernoe delo that every soldier should study

at least elementary things, how to look for such things to find out for themselves, to understand this is an example of why it is very difficult to conduct offensive actions in this direction. the ukrainian military has just found these anti- personnel mines. russian units while they were here were completely mined in all directions. we just chased them with our feet here, then we went on when we were released , it was not boring, we had to cross these minnie fields. let's go down the street monker put machine-gun points and we cities got separated one group went through these branches well i would have gone through these cities the second problem is that these are very

strong fortified areas they are boring in the main outpost the school is located on a hill russian military saw all the approaches to the village here very the loophole was in a good position, and they were firing from here. we just moved from that flank. valeriy shows another so-called surprise that could be blown up , the donor was also standing, they also planted the zhaldas , we will climb somewhere to install so many ukrainian fighters had to storm this fortress of fish. we enter a strong enough fortress. the school where theirs was the main stronghold and if we understood

that if we take it, the village will be liberated, and that is what happened. they had no way out except to leave across the river . by the way , many of them were killed there. dmytro says that a unit of 200 people from the ukrainian side was against them. once again they emphasize that it is not difficult to bring them in. it is not so. it is as simple as people think we are here, we are here or counteroffensive . well, you have to fight for each village, and they are because there are christmas trees and sticks to melitopol for those villages. so don't think that everything is so easy. it will be to try faster serhiy, the deputy battalion commander, assures that you should not underestimate the enemy , the russian troops have a lot of resources , it used to be because they felt such a powerful

fire effect, then they retreated more, i would even say they were standing on the pedals, but now the opposites will commit a rather serious act, it is difficult to say what their motivation is, illiterate people from primorsky krai, what are they fighting for, uh , but they know how to fight because they are led by professional military officers . according to the stories of the captives, they are afraid of the blocking units , the captives complain that they have no choice, they say that there are foreign troops standing behind them, that the choice is either to survive here or to surrender because

they will shoot their own there, that's why the ukrainian military they believe that it is necessary to fight thoughtfully and take your time, they are sure of the result. soon they will push a little and they will fall, but we have this feeling that there will be a little more and they will again someday chase the stormtroopers of the zekivka and so you say that i feel that a little more and a little more and the front will be breached andriy kuzakov mykola ryshchenko oleksiy paly radio liberty the initiative is in our hands about the situation on the front lines the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine spoke by phone at the head of the united states joint chiefs of staff committee to general mark milli, in addition, they discussed the urgent needs of the transfer of weapons and ammunition for conducting a counter-offensive, a message about this appeared in the telegram channel of general zaluzhnyi, he spoke about the operational situation at the front, the ukrainian military continues to introduce active offensive actions, the situation

is developing according to the plan, the initiative is in our hands a miracle on the front as the ukrainian defense forces told during his visit to the czech republic, we will talk about it in detail a little later, but now i i offer to listen to the answer of the ukrainian president to the journalists' questions about the slow pace of the ukrainian army's offensive and what positive points he sees in it , please. that's why i see a positive in this, we are moving forward and not moving back. as a russian said zelensky. you can write in the comments under this stream on the radio freedom channel. and what

do you think about this and about such comments in particular to the president of ukraine, but in the meantime, the united states is indeed discussing the possibility of providing ukraine with cluster munitions to improve the effectiveness of the offensive actions of the armed forces of ukraine, but so far this information has not been officially confirmed at the briefing , pentagon spokesman brigadier general patrick ryder said. that the provision of the so-called improved conventional dual-purpose ammunition - that is, cluster ammunition is indeed under discussion , but further on i will quote specific announcements at the moment, there is no earlier reason why there have been talks about this at all, that the reuters agency has become a public broadcaster of the united states of america, referring to own sources, reported that already today , the administration of the president of the united states, joe biden , is supposed to announce a new package of military aid to ukraine, which, in particular, will include these cluster projectiles munitions usually

release a large number of small elements they are considered more dangerous for the civilian population the russian side should be noted they are now using these munitions in war against ukraine they were the ones who recorded the shelling of kharkiv, mykolaiv, zaporizhzhia, kramatorsk in 2008. more than 120 countries adopted the treaty on the prohibition of the production , use and accumulation of such cluster munitions, but the united states, russia and ukraine refused to join the alleged provision of ukrainian cluster munitions . counteroffensive, we will discuss this further . let's talk about the situation at the front, i 'll remind you in order to promptly follow the news of what is happening, in particular, in the russian-ukrainian war, what are the paces counteroffensive, you can subscribe to radio svoboda. we are in everyone's social networks. and don't forget that morning broadcast

svoboda morning is with you on weekdays from 9:00 a.m. and you can watch this video here on the radio svoboda channel or on the espresso tv channel, the tour of the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyy continues the night before volodymyr zelenskyi met with his czech counterpart petro pavlo in the prague castle, the official residences of the czech presidents, in addition to the meeting with the president of the czech republic, zelenskyi has to meet with the prime minister of the country by peter i fiala by the heads of the senate and the chamber of deputies of the parliament, and it is interesting that this is the first official visit of zelensky to the czech republic since the beginning of the full-scale russian invasion, the presidents gave a joint press conference after the negotiations, the politicians talked about the supply of weapons, membership in nato and the european union, and security guarantees for ukraine pavel supported ukraine on the way to nato and also stated that the czech republic wants negotiations on ukraine's accession to the european union to begin

already this year in front of the czech republic zelenskyy for the first time during his tenure, he visited bulgaria in sofia, the ukrainian leader had meetings with the new head of the bulgarian government, nikolay denkovy, as well as with the romanian president on the radio, during a conversation with the latter, there were even disputes in the wording , the bulgarian president, who is called pro-russian, in his speech repeatedly called russia a war against ukraine , zelensky publicly corrected it and emphasized that this is the war. it is worth noting that the bulgarian leader previously called crimea russian and spoke against despite this, the bulgarian government approved a new aid package for ukraine last week, and with prime minister denkov zelensky even signed a declaration on the integration of ukraine into nato and

the eu. the day before , i congratulate rostislav on our broadcast and ask him to tell me how zelensky's visit to the czech republic is going, what are the concrete results of this visit now the negotiations of the president of ukraine with the czech example of petrantsial are taking place, and the negotiations in the government are ongoing and there will also be a meeting with e -e stickers of the two small czech parliaments , it must also be said that this is the first visit of zelensky to the czech republic as president and the first visit in 2014 when the war in donbas began and the annexation of crimea - this is the first visit of the ukrainian leader to prague , what were the moments after the war? he said that ukraine shows that russia on the battlefield shows that russia is not that strong, and the second moment he confirmed that ukraine will have one chance for a counteroffensive this year, this is the summer period, these three more months, four months before

the onset of the winter period, so we must take advantage of this chance and says that there are no alternatives in ukraine other than victory in this war. well, of course, nato is the last days before that freedom, that 's why all these diplomatic parties are maneuvering about it. of the prague castle, there was a group of several hundred ukrainians with a huge, huge slogan , ukraine in nato, about nato, the czech president , mr. petropav, supports the transformation of the ukraine nato commission into the council of ukraine, nato, and ukraine will now be an equal ally in the alliance. for his part, he said that one should show strength in vilnius and not look back at moscow. this was my question . i asked him what expectations he had before his loyal summit. what would ukraine like to receive such an ideal wording of this invitation?

ukraine wanted to listen to volodymyr zelenskyi, what would be ideal for us to be invited, what wording is required for the invitation well, we just need an invitation, we understand that there may be difficulties with one or another, as they say, gordium in order to get the united support of all the alliance partners someone is still looking back at moscow, someone is afraid of russia. although i believe that this is such a moment , such a great chance to show the courage of this alliance and the strength of the alliance. nevertheless, we are talking about a clear signal of some specific things in the direction of the invitation, we need this motivation, we need honesty in our relations, also, therefore, some pro-ukrainian researcher after the end of the war and also said about

the european union that they support ukraine's membership in the eu, of course, negotiations on ukraine's accession to the eu have already started before the end of this year as well the czech leader said that the czech republic is interested in starting a war against ukraine , but not only, but right now we will listen to peter paul. only after the war, but even now during military operations, we see this as a good opportunity for czech companies, this is a mutually beneficial cooperation and it is necessary to pay sufficient attention to it. already next week , a delegation of 30 businessmen with a special representative for the reconstruction of ukraine will decide in ukraine to study the possibility of reconstruction, and it must also be said that the czech republic has taken the lead in the reconstruction of the dnipropetrovsk region in the east

of ukraine. katya slava, it seems that this visit was quite effective. and if we talk about the visit to bulgaria was less comfortable for zelensky, or am i wrong, because we guessed even about public disputes, zelensky was happy. well, two countries, two presidents, two different generals. the times of communism but what is the difference petropav was a nato general headed the nato military committee and the rubenrads as a military pilot was not a nato general that is why he is so pro-russian really this situation with the bulgarian president when he called he stubbornly opposes the war in ukraine, that is why the conflict does not say the word war, when he spoke out against it, he doubted the need to supply weapons to ukraine, well, this is all very revealing, his pro-russian policy is different from that of the czech republic, because in the czech republic, both the government and the president are for ukraine, and the government

is for ukraine. -th president who is pro-russian in the ukrainian direction, but bulgaria became the 22nd ukraine to sign a declaration of support for ukraine's membership in nato. this is very important. bulgaria has supplied weapons and will supply weapons to ukraine. bulgaria also supports ukraine's membership. it goes without saying, well, i should have mentioned another important point, but it is very important. they wrote about the fact that bulgaria will supply ukraine with two russian- made rector nuclear reactors on khmelnytskyi nuclear power plant, the third and fourth units will be so that ukraine will develop its atomic energy with the help of bulgaria, this is also very important, but bulgaria, so to speak, has these traditional historical and between such a pro-russian but it must be said that this is a worthy member of nato, a worthy member of the european union, support him in the european integration of ukraine, the euro-atlantic integration

of ukraine, so it is necessary to say that the visit to bulgaria was overshadowed, on the contrary, a very breakthrough moment , a breakthrough visit, and bulgaria is a reliable partner of ukraine, despite the fact that traditionally and historically since the 19th century, there has been a very strong pro-russian mood in bulgaria due to the fact that bulgaria got rid of the turkish yoke with the help of the russian empire katya rostislav thanks for the interesting details rostislav khotyn, an international viewer of radio svoboda, spoke in detail about the visit of the ukrainian president to the czech republic and bulgaria. next we continue to talk about the situation, particularly at the front, and we will also discuss how international cooperation with partners can strengthen the armed forces of ukraine during the counteroffensive oleksandr musienko, head of the center for military law of research joined the freedom of the morning i welcome you to our air i welcome you but i want to ask you about cluster

munitions we do not yet know officially for 100% whether they are really transmitted nevertheless first in this information appeared in the media , and it seems that the negotiations are going on about this, and how it will strengthen the ukrainian army, and in which battles , for example, where specifically, the armed forces of ukraine can use and can use the accumulation of manpower , first of all, and not only manpower as well as in principle the technique of lightly armored equipment depending on the type of projectiles of its caliber actually, er , and possibilities, but in principle a rather wide range of use, the peculiarity is precisely that it can act against the enemy's protected positions where the enemy is building for
