ukraine is being talked about in the world, about this and much more, further on in the issue without a pdch, but also without an invitation, is ukraine satisfied after exactly that nato, the flag from the front line on the central square of the lithuanian capital, how ukrainians were met in vilnius and what remained behind the scenes of the official part of the armed forces of ukraine, they destroy the rashists in the south and around the bahmut , the enemies are burning reserves so that their front does not fail, it is not a boring liberated village in the south of donetsk region littered with destroyed equipment and enemy mines, what does the counteroffensive look like up close, i congratulate you, iryna koval, and this is the news

results of the week on the espresso tv channel . ukraine has been waiting for this meeting at the highest level for six months. a post about the fact that it is unprecedented and absurd when there is no time frame for both the invitation and the membership of ukraine some of the delegation at the nato summit understood the state of the president of ukraine but there were those who said that zelensky is going too far and they are angry in the informal atmosphere volodymyr zelensky was advised to cool down and look at the full package of proposals this year there was no historic decision to invite ukraine to the alliance family the usa and germany were cautious biden is worried that one false step can to provoke the third world war, therefore the door to the alliance for ukraine was not closed, but

we can enter it only after the end of the war , our correspondent natalya stare also visited vilnius this week right, so we will find out what happened on the sidelines of the nato summit in vilnius. preparations were made carefully for several months. nato created an entire fortress out of the city. the countries of the alliance were brought here and installed a system of anti-aircraft defense and long-range damage to protect the participants and representatives of the countries of the alliance who gathered here for important negotiations. the same city is 32 km from the border line between lithuania and belarus. on the first day of the summit, thousands of people gathered in the center of vilnius. lithuanians are convinced that ukraine should

volodymyr zelenskyi came to the square to welcome the alliance into the family. he thanked the lithuanians for their open position towards ukraine during the celebrations. the national anthem of our country was played and the blue-yellow flag made of bachmut was raised, which was raised by the marathon runners in the capital of lithuania. we are cossacks. glory to ukraine. we talked with the lithuanians and were amazed, they follow the news about the war in ukraine and cheer for our victory in lithuania, they are sure that while russia is waging a brutal war, ukraine is paying a high price for protecting all of europe , terrible things are happening in ukraine and we know that the handiwork of russia, it still remains a great threat. ukraine has already shown more than expected that it is ready to become a member of the alliance, and nato countries must show

support not only by supplying weapons, but also by accepting ukraine into the family of the alliance, it will be our enemy, this is the biggest battle in which we also feel the need for freedom and we will feel calm when ukraine returns all its territories without victims in general , blue and yellow flags became a symbol of the nato summit in vilnius , 33,000 of them were hung all over the city, it symbolized what lithuania wants to see ukraine, the 33rd member of nato, over and during the top capital of lithuania, a transport with the inscription while you are waiting for your stop ukraine is waiting for f16 and these days russia was actively striking our country, so this tunnel leads by road to the exact location

where nato is located it was in the depths of the forest that foreign journalists passed by but also stopped at these photos that show the pain of innocent people and these photos show the brutality of russia, it was only a few times reminded here in europe why we should speak why the whole world should speak what ukraine should become a full member of nato on the second day of the summit it becomes clear that entry into the alliance is not yet available for ukraine , according to the secretary general of nato, our country will receive an invitation when all allies agree and the conditions are met, however, the leaders of the alliance countries approved a package of three elements we must support ukraine so as long as it will take, we must continue to increase aid to ukraine, this will be a clear signal from the current summit, we must remember that the war began in 2014, since then

nato countries have always provided support ukraine for several days in the entire hall in vilnius nato luna, but to make statements from the leaders of the alliance countries, today is the last day of the summit, we will just now hear statements from the g7 countries regarding the guarantee of ukraine's security, we will not help ukraine to build a strong effective defense on land, in the air and at sea, which will become a factor of stability in the region and deter any threats at the summit of the president of ukraine, his delegation was accompanied by minister of defense oleksiy reznikov and minister of foreign affairs dmytro kuleba head of the president's office andriy yarmak and first lady olena zelenska on the sidelines of the vilnius summit greeted zelensky warmly and with shouts of congratulations , the same atmosphere prevailed at the first meeting

of the nato council ukraine with laughter and hugs , his mood improved and zelensky himself, we will remind , published an angry post criticizing the president before his visit allies for the indecision on the issue of inviting ukraine to nato, we can state that the results are indeed good, but if there was an invitation, they would be ideal next year, the alliance will celebrate the 75th anniversary of the creation of the organization, and the 2024 jubilee summit will be held in washington. whether ukraine will get closer on the way to nato remains an open question for you . freedmen worked for natalya. joe biden's ukrainian delegation brings home

a significant victory of ukraine in the field of security , contact us valery chaly diplomat extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador of ukraine to the usa 2015-2019 mr. valery i congratulate you glory to ukraine glory to the heroes so mr. valery i want to hear from you what are your personal impressions of vilnius yourself and what did you expect when we talk about impressions it is a very accurate word because the impression depends on expectations if someone expected that ukraine would be invited to nato and we we will be a member of nato after this, it was the wrong approach in general, the wrong expectation, i had no such expectations and that is why i look carefully at all the documents, these public fixed statements

, i can say one thing that this is not a victory or defeat is a serious path, so this path to nato, to the system of collective security and defense, and in some ways it may have improved, but , unfortunately, it has not become easier if you compare this summit with the one in bukhara in 2008, which, by the way , they also called themselves there are great hopes how has the rhetoric of the alliance countries changed regarding ukraine? well, it's really interesting, but comparing the rhetoric and the documents, the rhetoric has changed dramatically . it's just that in the sidelines of bucharest, despite the fact that they talked about whether nato's door was open for ukraine, everyone understood what was looming. russia by its threats is still a good diplomatic language or diplomatic language now on the contrary now the rhetoric in principle

and even backroom conversations are very favorable which reassures ukraine yes you will be in nato it is a matter of time that is, these are changes but if you look at the decisions documents and that that we still don't know what will happen to this instrument , which was previously in bucharest and was not accepted . and now some surrogate is not known what will come of it, so i will say that there is no such thing, but the rhetoric, yes, the rhetoric has become much better. well right after nato, the bulgarian authorities announced the first official decision of sofia to help kiev with heavy equipment france will provide a long-range scout missile and engineering equipment for demining australia 30 more bushmaster vehicles germany has removed a new package of military aid to ukraine for 700 million euros mr. valery, we have prepared material about the main results

that ukraine received in vilnius are the creation of the ukraine nato council, the cancellation of the pdc before joining the alliance, about weapons and the f16 pilot training program, so i suggest we take a look we will be able to send ukraine an invitation to join the alliance when all members agree and the necessary conditions are met . this optical diplomatic formula from the final committee of the nato summit in vilnius provided little clarity as to when kyiv will become a member of the alliance and whether it will become one at all, of course , in a document of this level for the first time the word invitation appeared, but at the same time it does not contain any obligations of the alliance to ukraine, that is the seventh problem so when when will the conditions be fulfilled what under the condition by whom they should be formulated what else are they

one example of diplomatic equilibrium is the clause on canceling ukraine's action plan on membership on the way to nato, the famous pdc was invented in 2008 in order to somehow tie ukraine to the alliance and prevent it from falling directly into the arms of the kremlin. the number of conditions was actually equal to the refusal now in in theory this should shorten and facilitate the accession procedure and frandt we have confirmed that ukraine will become a member of nato and agreed to remove the requirement for a membership action plan this will change ukraine's path to membership from a two-stage process to a one-stage one, but instead of an alliance, the alliance established another barrier for kyiv, the rna annual national program, which kyiv may have to carry out even longer, at least president biden was only joking about this issue, mr. zelensky, how soon after the end of the war ukraine wants to join nato in an hour and 20 minutes, you guys bet very

deep questions are also raised by security guarantees, which on the sidelines of the nato summit agreed to be provided to ukraine by the g7 states , kyiv promised further supplies of weapons, training of military personnel and exchange of intelligence, however, so far this is only a joint declaration, something like a memorandum that evokes sad memories of budapest in 1994 , concrete legal obligations should appear after ukraine signs agreements with each of the countries. this may become the first legal document that symbolizes that we have there is such an umbrella, this is the first such document, an umbrella of security guarantees, and then ukraine will have documents from each with the state as a security guarantor , the most important result of vilnius at the

moment, and this time it is already very concrete the announcement of new packages of military aid, cluster munitions from the united states, new patriot launchers from germany, long-range missiles from france, etc. , in addition , the aviation coalition to teach ukrainian pilots to fly the f16 has finally taken shape in the lithuanian capital , 11 countries of armed aid have agreed . well , if we have today so this is how the circumstances turned out. by the way, you correctly noted all the success, and indeed it was not about nato and not about the goal of vilnius, but about the first stage - this the de-occupation of the territory and the supply of weapons, that is, it is clear that we would like it, and this, in my opinion, is a justified desire to have

a lot of things already, including attack missiles, which are so similar to 300 km. well, but we will sincerely thank you. and for this, a total of one and a half billion has just been announced in this regard, this is a really important, important element, but there you heard in the story about the frequency converter that we were made to do it in such a way that we would not be able to fulfill it, no once the mechanism was clear that we have a plan for a specific determination of the number of years we fulfill it, we become a member of nato, so now we fought to remove this intermediate stage, we fought this condition, we fought, we fought , everything was fine until the last day, until this record appeared about the annual national program that has existed for many years, but what will it be? if it will be as it is now, then it is not very constructive. if

it will be more clear in the terms of the document , let's say there are 30-50 conditions to change the legislation , specific decisions, then i think in a year , it can be done, then it will be clear to the authorities. we need to work not on our statements about the security guarantee. this is a lie from the black statement about the security guarantee. there is none in this declaration and it is not a security guarantee . it was prepared as an international agreement, the so-called kyiv security compact kyiv security compact means that the project is posted on the website of the president of ukraine, unfortunately, it was not possible to make it a legally binding agreement obligate these, that is, the declaration, of course, does not obligate this, but it is good, in fact , it is necessary to work on it, but it is very important that they become this, it does not become an alternative, that

is, that is, manivtsi, that is, all of them are articulate, this is very important, it is necessary to follow up, so when they declare that we will work on it now, i am very afraid that they will stop working on nato members, valery, we don't have much time left, but there are quite interesting statistics that i would like you to comment on. so, 89% of ukrainians support the country's accession to nato, the results of the survey were published by the kyiv international institute of sociology, and these are actually record figures for the years of independence, because in 2008, according to the national institute of strategic studies, the majority, namely 52% , said that they were against joining the alliance, what exactly do ukrainians expect from joining nato in your opinion, it's very simple. ukrainians are wise

people and understand that ukraine is not obliged to fight for decades. other countries, that is, ukrainians expect this reliable security umbrella, without which it is impossible to develop the economy, energy, get jobs, investors will not come, that is , ukrainians want development and not eternal war with russia, but they understand that for this they will have to withstand this blow now and deo will buy all the territories and then just close your barrage from the east p valery well, i want to thank you for joining our airwaves today and glory to ukraine heroes, glory valery chalyi diplomat extraordinary and

plenipotentiary ambassador of ukraine to the usa 2015-2019 was in touch with us for years, we need to thank you more hello. what happened at the nato summit was it either a misunderstanding or a frank docker , for which the minister of defense of great britain ben wallace noted that ukraine should pay more attention to the west's gratitude with the help of quote, we are not amazon the land of satisfaction of the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi that we were not given a clear schedule or a set of conditions for joining nato zelenskyi reacted to this by saying that we can wake up and say thank you after voles made excuses for this and said that they would continue to help ukraine, and koliba called it all a misunderstanding. during the week, the foreign press actively discussed the vilnius summit and the ukrainian issue

occupied a prominent place in the columns of the most famous publications . on the pages of the world media in our review, our unity will not be shaken, assured the us president at the nato summit, volodymyr zelenskyy, writes the american newspaper usa today on the front page, the publication publishes material about ukraine's ability to defend itself from the aggressor, meanwhile, joe biden said that nato will resist russian aggression as long as necessary, so the american president compared the russian-ukrainian war with the struggle for european freedom during the cold war and writes for the new york times about that the usa is the largest military supporter of kyiv writes for the washington post, but for president biden it is a difficult challenge, because

it is important for him to preserve the north atlantic alliance do not provoke russia's escalation, the media say, we suggest giving more thanks. the british ziguard publishes an article about the complaints of us and british officials about ukraine's lack of gratitude for western aid on the cover. the newspaper publishes a photo of volodymyr zelensky and emmanuel macron with their wives. finally, in our review, britain is set for a long way to win putin's war - said at the nato summit to the british prime minister , the stender newspaper writes about this, the publication also talks about zelensky's criticism of the decision not to give ukraine clear terms of membership in nato endured diplomatic emotions on the ukrainian front and the fighting is now focused on five directions: kupyan

, liman, bakhmut, avdiyiv, and maryan, at the same time, the armed forces of ukraine continued to destroy the enemy in the south this week and every day our cats an average of 500-600 soldiers were sent to the raw land, so let's look at the main changes at the front further in the east, the bakhmut direction remains key, because the occupiers have repeatedly attacked it in the south and the top in the north were thrown out of court from the last village, and our military returned to these positions and continued the offensive, which continues to this day, occupying all the key peaks near klichtivka , the defense forces continued the offensive to the south , as well as to neighboring villages, the main task is to cut the bakhmut horlivka road and take the enemy in a semi-encirclement our forces under bakhmut came out and the main task was to destroy the farm, the enemy's force and the school from the lower group of the enemy, who could not help but shift to another direction, heavy battles continue, and

in the south the armed forces of ukraine are advancing on the melitopol and berdyansk directions and are entrenched at the reached boundaries in the zaporizhzhia region, our military in several places came close to the main line of defense of the russians in the orichivsk tokmak direction. the peak near the old magyar, the enemy cannot but respond to our attacks, this means that he is forced to transfer his forces in the process of transfer, it becomes clear where these forces and our artillery is working here, this is the process of exhaustion that characterizes them now, and the current hostilities will continue for at least two or three months, and after that, what can be said about any more active offensive actions to beat the invaders from the south, in the east, the russians are trying to distract our main reserves from the offensive in the south and to force them to transfer to the defense of luhansk region

, during the week in this direction the occupiers attacked the defense village to the west of svatovo in the novoselivsk district, there the enemy managed to cross the railway track and approach highways kupyansk criminal, in addition, the russians continue their offensive on almost the entire area of ​​the front between svatov and krimin, according to the information of the ministry of defense, despite the offensive actions, our losses did not increase in the south , the ratio of the dead is five times lower in the east, eight ukrainian villages were completely destroyed and deserted the streets and fields are strewn with the bodies of russian terrorists, so the counteroffensive looks close up, our film crew got a unique opportunity to see what it means to return the ukrainian land further

exclusive material by artem lugutenka from the south of donetsk region, the de-occupation of the donetsk region begins here. now the military will bring us and show us how the counteroffensive soldiers of the 35th brigade met us in velika novosilka and took us to the south towards the liberated makarivka with dominoes. it is possible, thank you, thank you, very interesting. the first stop is not boring. the village is not boring de-occupied names here are very loud and dangerous stop callsigns smart and poltava they are taking us further south says

they are nervous because they are taking us to a place where there has never been a single journalist. this is the first line of defense of the russians, which was broken through and occupied by the armed forces of ukraine. if the russians were running away, their belongings and ammunition were scattered everywhere . here are the mines, how are they? well, we equipped their halls one by one . like, well, zero, like fresh, and everything in principle and now we are their weapons , the volume of them, for example, an individual binding package of the occupiers, now our mortars of the first line service are in these positions , well, there was a zero here once yes, in the first place already дальше оникнения, the next line of defense of the occupiers is 3 km from here, our soldiers on the front line were incredibly motivated, it was earlier, well, how to improve my leg, i had a pigtail, part of the pigtail was knocked out, they left me plastic wrap
