, we are working with partners, we are working on security guarantees. we are also working on helping our partners so that they reach certain conclusions on the eve of the summit. in that case, obviously, i will be there and i will do everything i can say. in ukraine, they started building a factory for the production of drones. bayraktar agreed on this a few years ago. now we have moved from the memorandum to real steps, noted the minister of strategic industries oleksandr kamuchin, earlier the general director of baikar said that the factory in ukraine will be opened in 2025, the volume of planned investments is over 95 million dollars , at the end of june, the company received license permits from the turkish authorities for the production of drones in ukraine sbu announced the suspicion of a communist ex-people's deputy who asked

putin to recognize the so-called ldr, according to the investigation, he was expecting a blitzkrieg of the rashists from the quick occupation of kyiv, what was publicly stated that he also incited acquaintances to help the russian occupiers in the event of success, according to the media, this is about heorhiy buyk, who in 17-19 years campaigned for the annexation of the captured part of eastern ukraine to the russian federation , also called for the introduction of the troops of the russian federation into the territory of ukraine. third from the post for a year you found him guilty of a corrupt administrative offense, the punishment includes fines of uah 6,800 and deprivation of the right to hold office for a period

of one year, however, this decision can be appealed tretyak has already reacted to the court's decision, saying that the case is a mockery of the law and contradicts common sense . a fire extinguisher against the law in the bila tserkva . the priests of the moscow patriarchate sprayed people with fire extinguishers. about a hundred law enforcement officers arrived earlier, the city council voted for this temple to come under the control of the police wanted moscow pp stubbornly resist and do not want to obey the laws decision i want to protect the ukrainian church against the moscow church, you see that despite the fact that there is blood, there is a project war about the fact that russia came to kill ukrainians and protecting the so-called russian-speaking population, today they pray in the ukrainian

language, today they do not return the temple to the community in fact, it is necessary to accept that this is actually a reset of the kremlin - it is a subversive intelligence center. for the first time in ukraine, at night, doctors performed a heart transplant for a six-year-old girl. everything went smoothly. the child feels good. she started to breathe independently in 2 hours after the operation, noted the director of the heart institute, boris todorov, he and his colleagues performed the transplantation of the details , the details have not yet been announced, they promised later and further a live broadcast from lithuania on the eve of vilnius , we are watching the joint press statements of the secretary general of nato and the president

of lithuania, bakary, in thousands of aggresoreos pashony suncha durzomusov leonida cheese the rest of the signal namely the wingerian of the alliance centimeter musove as if the rest are trying to prevent the netik declaration

this is where ir-spendimos i smoke you are still free let's get nowhere for us, natos, we are studying the goal of a free nato, the line complicates zeranda on uyufactors of cinema, to consolidate the status of english as one of the languages ​​of international communication in ukraine, draft laws have already been registered in the parliament, some provisions of the document, ukrainians were outraged, is kyiv region ready for such an initiative, and what do foreign teachers say, my colleague will tell from bila tserkva, the majority of ukrainians know english at the a1 level, moreover, a third of adults do not know foreign languages ​​at all, this is evidenced by the survey data of the the kyiv international institute of sociology observes such a trend in schoolchildren who are often not interested in learning a subject or are taught by foreign teachers who are not sufficiently qualified, but this disappointing statistic could be corrected by a special approach to children and interactive activities, says the director of the bilotserk school for advanced language studies, olena tkach, children are children are different, some like

it , some think for a long time, some choose, some stick out. verbs, when you have to learn a lot of vocabulary in english, such as grammatical forms and non-standard words. of course, it is not easy and children, especially modern children, they do not want to cram and memorize. they support the initiative of the president and about strengthening the study of the english language and after-school clubs and various types of courses, as the curator says lack of interest in a private school is present both among preschoolers and teenagers and notes that they do not always encounter a poor study base at school, most children are inactive due to a primitive program or an uninteresting method teaching, there are children who come already with good preparation, there are children who, for example, at the age of 14-15, have elementary knowledge, they can literally name only the names of family members, understand the simplest questions such as

how old are you, my name is you, where do you live a- and um, there are also such options , and we return to the broadcast from lithuania the day before, we are listening to the joint statements of the secretary general of nato and the president of lithuania of our unity and values, and therefore, despite all these challenges that we are facing now, we we are at our strongest state. and that is why we know that the countries that will meet in vilnius will be a meeting of our solidarity and the power

of the president. thank you for your welcome . thank you for your efforts. summit so, this week we will strengthen our resolve and our defense by moving our investments, as well as helping ukraine get closer to nato, we will work with our partners to in order to ensure the rules and regulations related to the international order two weeks ago we met and we talked about the involvement of german and lithuanian troops and in order to strengthen our presence in the eastern a-a from the flank of nato to the level of a brigade during the next blood in order to strengthen our strength to our defense, we will review our regional and plans, in particular, it is about

300,000 troops who will be in full combat readiness, we are sending a clear signal that we we will defend every millimeter of lithuanian land, as well as the land of each of our allies. we make decisions regarding ukraine, including a multi-vector package of military aid for ukraine so that it can move from soviet standards to nato standards. nato is also talking about medical aid we are also renewing our political ties president zelenskyi will join the inaugural meeting of the council ukraine is nato and this will contribute to the promotion of ukraine to the alliance by continuing our support by continuing our support to ukraine. we also emphasize the necessity

of investing in our own defense, so all our partners who will contact us and online will testify that we will increase the percentage of our gdp, in particular it is said about canada and the usa, which this year invested more than 8% of their gdp in the defense sector . we are also joined by the leaders of new zealand, australia, japan and south korea i am looking forward to sweden joining the alliance as soon as possible we have been meeting since today we will meet with president erdoğan and we and the leadership of sweden will talk about our further steps in this direction thank you lithuania for your contribution let's move on to the questions

please i have a question to the president yes to the general secretary so, today in your cockroach, the minister-koleba e-e said that now is a very important moment in order to shed light on a-a whether ukraine will be invited to nato. tell me please, what can we be the specific proposals of our allies regarding the prospective membership of ukraine in nato, discussions are ongoing, debates are ongoing, and today is no exception. but i am sure that all our allies will really send such a clear message regarding ukraine. during the summit, we will have something

to offer ukraine to the speakers. so, in oslo during the meeting of the informal meeting of the leaders of the program, we also discussed the issue of practical support. to give ukraine to ukraine until the moment when it becomes a full member of nato and we decided to establish a platform called the ukraine nato council on which joint decisions will be made, and we also talked about the fact that ukraine will be freed from the so-called pdc, that they will speed up the process, nato joined and now we are discussing all these elements, we are discussing the issues that are included in the aid package, and we are also bringing our discussions to the final stage

, so i will not delve into the details, and i understand that our allies are now trying to reach a common denominator and i am sure that we will really have clear signals after the meeting of our leaders about i can say i can say that the membership shoption that the action plan for membership in nato we are taking it away and this is such a clear step that ukraine will indeed bypass the process of joining nato, it will become easier for ukraine, and we emphasize that under specific conditions, ukraine has absolutely every chance to become a member of nato, we are advancing step by step, and in fact, after the visit

to bucharest, everyone is talking only about politics the open doors of nato, and therefore, considering the situation we have now when it comes to ukraine's membership in nato, we can already see this horizon, and the closer we get to this line of its horizon, we see that it is receding, so ukraine now needs really concrete signals for so that ukraine understands that this is all reality not only on paper, we all agree that the armed forces are now professional and the most experienced in terms of military experience directly on the battlefield, this is a nation as whose armed forces are really now showing everything in their power in order to protect their sovereignty and independence, and now we should not only admire them or their battles, their struggle, but also

strengthen all this with our political decisions , the general is really running to immediately accept ukraine directly after the end of the war, and mr. president , is lithuania really ready to pedal this process during the discussion, all our allies agree that ukraine will become a member of nato. i am convinced that because this summit will only speed up this process, because decisions will be made that will give ukraine a clear vision of what its road map will be. therefore, we are now delving into the practical implementation of the package that was adopted in oslo, as well as on strengthening ties between nato forces and nato forces

by the armed forces of ukraine, and we are also canceling the pdf and all these steps really bring ukraine closer to membership in the north atlantic alliance, but the final decisions, i emphasize once again, will be made when all of us unanimously we agree and when during tomorrow 's meeting. therefore, now we cannot announce any concrete decisions before these meetings will take place, and i am sure that it is important to broadcast this message that indeed all nato members are in favor of ukraine joining the alliance, our open door policy remains in effect. we really want sweden to become a full member of the alliance as soon as possible. we also agreed that we will repeat again and again that all this

depends on the members of the alliance and on ukraine about the final time when is the right h- the right time or ukraine became a member of nato indeed ukraine should remain an independent and sovereign state we must provide for you ukraine had the advantage on the battlefield and therefore now it is very important to facilitate and direct our efforts and all our allies to supply ammunition, weapons, training of ukrainian soldiers in order for ukraine to succeed in liberating more of its occupied lands and also to prevent russia from continuing its aggression in the future how i i have already said that there are certain things that are really true, because now during the current period during the northern garden, the partners will only strengthen their

promises about how we can contribute to the acceleration process and the fact that the pre-chat was canceled is what it is now. a step closer to nato membership, we understand that it is very important to evaluate the reforms that ukraine is carrying out, we must keep our finger on the pulse and monitor this progress, we are really serious about ukraine becoming such a member nato is here during the e-e by itself, we will contribute to the development of a clear algorithm, a clearly visible road map of what ukraine needs to do, and also what all members of the alliance need to do in order for ukraine to become a nato member, therefore nato is about unanimity, and therefore we hope that

we will all manage to reach a common denominator and we will manage to reach a consensus, we understand that this process is actually a long, long process of ratification and when we talk about sweden, for example, this certification process may take more time for one reason or another, and therefore tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, decisions will be made here in vilnius that will really make ukraine's nato membership in theory and practice. so, we hear such statements from turkey that erdogan is combining turkey's future membership in the european

union with sweden's participation in nato . please tell me whether the presence of turkey during the summit will not delay this process. i support the ambitions of turkey to become a member of the eu, but at the same time we must remember our the agreements that were concluded in madrid, in particular the specific conditions that really a-a is a condition that sweden must meet in order to become a member of nato, and in fact sweden managed to do a lot when we talk about the export of weapons . turkey and the european union, as well as sweden, and now this is exactly what is happening. we have also seen the amendments that sweden made to its constitution to its legislation, and sweden also manages to actually fulfill its

promises and move. it is very important that we be together in the fight against terrorism, but it is also important that we resolve these fears, the legitimate fears of all our allies , which arise in particular from the perspective of sweden's membership in nato. yes, it is possible, but we are talking about strengthening nato, about strengthening our collective defense power, if we look at the a-a map we see that sweden fits well into the geography of nato's expansion and nato's presence in this region, so now we are working, doing everything possible to ensure that sweden joins the alliance as soon as possible. i managed to talk with president erdoğan a few weeks ago, we had a constructive conversation, we talked about what is really important now to carry out the permanent mechanism that was established

by sweden in finland and nato, and there was a meeting a few days ago in brussels, and indeed progress is obvious, and therefore today there will be other negotiations and therefore, i am convinced that there are all prospects for getting the right decisions regarding sweden's membership in nato. of course , we are not talking about guarantees, but now is the right time, the right time during the summit when the leaders can clearly express all their concerns and achieve as much progress as possible foul first of all, i am very happy that uh i see that the results of the efforts uh, which in particular mr. general secretary mr. stoltenberg and also the negotiations between turkey and the norwegians uh and sweden they were really constructive. we saw the conditions

that sweden had to meet and therefore now if we look at the list of those demands that were presented to sweden . a member of nato, so i am hoping for this tripartite meeting , which will be held this afternoon, and we will see that the picture will become clearer regarding sweden's membership in nato, regarding sweden's strategic opportunity in the alliance, so i want to say that this is important for the entire baltic region , as mr. secretary has already said, including lithuania, mix because the baltic region is actually a region for nato - this will strengthen our region to the president regarding the brigades that will be located

where they are heard on the eastern flank of nato, in particular in latvia. please tell me if there is a need in some formal agreement or declaration that would correspond to the nato format, that is, these plans are actually within the framework of the gnat legislation, when we talk about the deployment of our military on the eastern flank of nato, the first thing was about four combat groups, now that happened after the full-scale invasion of russia into ukraine , now we have doubled the number of nato troops present on the eastern flank of nato therefore, we will now say, in particular, during the vilnius summit that the number of troops present will be increased to the level brigade, we are talking not only about the presence

, but also about the continuation of the movement of weapons, as well as about the continuation of training. so, in fact, i clearly see the need for such actions. and the brigade also . we thank our german partners who supported such a decision . they are now present on the territory of lithuania. we will agree we will agree new defense plans er new structures and yes new force structures as well as requirements for force structures so that they meet the needs for the defense and protection of all our alliances so we will indeed review our permanent position but i think that for the baltic countries such an increase in the nato military only inspires additional

ios guarantees without horseshoes such a decision by germany this is indeed a very expected decision was i remember that there was a lot of discussion now it reflects our current situation we see also, that the leaders of poland and other countries, we reinforced that the geopolitical situation around us is not improving. on the contrary, it is only getting worse, and that is why the events that took place recently in belarus, in particular , the method of placing the wagnerites only under- and also the potential deployment of practically nuclear weapons on the territory belarus, we understood that we have to rely not only on infossence to strengthen and

strengthen our military, but also on my greater deployment of more of our military on the eastern flank, and therefore i i am convinced that it would be useful for nato to speak and answer and show that it welcomes such an increase in the presence of nato troops on the territory, in particular, we are not only talking about the security of lithuania, we are talking about collective security. and that is why we must continue to make the right decisions, joint decisions for in order to strengthen all our allies within the north atlantic community, we understand that time is not in our favor and that is why we have to use such a tool of deterrence , because we all talk about deterrence about preventive measures and allow our enemies
