[000:00:00;00] the armed forces of ukraine are advancing at the front, general milli said about this that it is a bloody road, but this is a confident movement in the armed forces of ukraine not only advancing, they are strengthening the captured lines of repair - they are repairing equipment right there where possible, and in fact, gradually , the armed forces of ukraine are advancing in the tauriy direction e- well, it's a scandal, well, it's not a scandal. it's just information that may be out there , and i don't know if it became a scandal in zaporizhzhia or not, because in kyiv, the mayor of the city , vitaliy klitschko, he was moving cobblestones on bohdan khmelnytskyi street somewhere. from khreschatyk up to the akita opera house and they say that during the war it is not necessary to engage in the laying of cobblestones, well, there was a certain answer that we know how to lay something. and here in zaporozhye they spent 300 million uah from the local budget on roads. please tell me, is it here there is no claim from the central authority of the government, in particular, the amount of the president. is this all normal and

it was really necessary to spend and master this money ? we were repairing the sidewalks a year ago, when this was the peak of the full-scale invasion, when people didn't know what to do with us , and what's happening is, you know, in general, and those funds that are spent by the city authorities and some of the surnames, they raise a lot of questions. do you remember what exactly zaporizhia was? such is the scandal with the embezzlement of humanitarian aid, and in it appeared not only the names of deputies from the regional state administration, but also directly. there were also the names of officials from the city council and observing cycle as an average citizen as a journalist i am simply surprised by the ridiculous decisions made by the zaporizhia city council , for example, to take the same question regarding the allocation of funds, the public is really like that, but there are

important, for example, political decisions that are not perceived in any way, only last week they finally accepted the appeal adopted a project on the dissolution of the commune spokesmen from the russian church, and you know how it happened that many times this project was sold by the european solidarity faction, but not even there were enough votes in the majority to even include this project in the agenda. but last week, the same project was included by the people's servants and, of course , votes were found for it, that is, the people of zaporozhye have a lot of questions about the actions of the zaporozhye city council , and we hope that there are many scandals. they are all well, they are getting their extension and the law enforcement agencies will be interested in this. yes, i have one more question . well, on the one hand, i am

pleased with the advice on the other hand. zaporizhzhia and we are talking about the cyrillic fedot spit, these are all the beautiful places on the azov coast where millions of ukrainians rested , in fact, now there are very few people writing that there are beaches, the beaches are almost empty, the tourist season failed . please tell me if it is really there this year that only the occupiers wash their feet no one wants to go there, it is clear that no one will go there from the territory under the control of ukraine, but you understand that it is from the occupied territories, uh, now nothing is happening there. unfortunately, these exercises have been going on for a long time these are not resorts, these are military bases of the russians. where do they take their personnel and equipment, and at the same time, in their propaganda , they offer people to rest, you can remember the so-called evacuation that they did when they took people to berdyansk kyrilovka and placed them in the same bases where they are located er, the russian military is using them as a human shield, and of course

you can understand people who don’t want to rest there, even those people who live there or nearby, because in the occupied territories at the moment it’s even scary to go outside there arbitrariness there is no law and any person can end up in the basement just because a russian soldier doesn't like their appearance or some kind of tattoo or something else because of course people for the most part well they are afraid to leave the house one more time in addition to this this week we were informed that currently men who have received russian passports that they have already begun to issue summonses to the russian army, that's why i think that this is also one of the reasons why there is no resort there, because people don't have time to rest now, people are once again trying not to

fall into the eyes of the occupiers, besides, of course, the financial situation of the people there has changed a lot, their immaterial situation, because the prices there are sky-high. there is nothing to live for, despite what the occupiers promised, pensions, social benefits, of course, there is no such thing, there is passporting, there is the detention of people, and you know this, this is real, so huge a prison in the middle of europe that was created for us by russian terrorists, thank you very much mrs. valentino, oh , valentino, i look at mrs. valentino, mrs. uh, yes , lord alice, i haven’t opened up yet about odesa , there was a friendship between you and him, thank you very much there are many questions that can be asked . but i think that another time we will talk about the forest with our members. earnings, even if this is the occupied territory, there will be no money, people are being taken to the front to fight against their country, and the only hope is that people will be able to

side with the armed forces of ukraine and surrender as prisoners. they can give birth in them only if they have a passport of the russian federation. and all those buildings where there are no owners now , the russians continue to actively nationalize, so to speak, and simply wring it out for themselves, this is the kind of frenzy the enemy is creating in the occupied territory of zaporizhzhia, they talked about it even now let's talk in more detail about the front situation at the front and around it serhii zgurets, director of the agency defect express, parents were led by the military results of the day serhiy i congratulate now i congratulate our viewers i i will ask a question that i saw yesterday just at the end. i told you that the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelenskyi, issued a decree by which military personnel of the senior and non-commissioned ranks can receive the rank of junior junior officers of junior officers if they have six months of combat experience. well, they have the relevant knowledge . health skills , respectively, in order to command how important it is and what caused this step from

the supreme commander-in-chief right now, well , in fact, this step is quite positive, we know about the fact that our army has increased significantly from 250,000 to 700,000, the side has many new units , some of the commanders were injured there, we lost some of the commanders, and now we understand that in fact it is the commanders of various levels who determine the effectiveness of the use of our and new weapons, the actual effectiveness of brigades and new units so that in any case we understand that it is combat experience that is a prerequisite to understand whether a person can be a commander in chief, we can really successfully lead the troops or not so that in in any case, this step is positive, i think that it will actually effectively affect the fact that our troops are even better . frontline changes around bahmut and about

the strange demands of the state audit service to the suppliers of the ministry of defense from these suppliers are now demanding the return of profits and we will talk about this right at the end of our program about this in a moment so on the night of july 19, the russian aggressors launched another terrorist missile attack on ukraine, 63 means of air attack were used from the south and in several waves, as well as the occupiers used kamikaze drones, cruise missiles, there were no ordinary cruise missiles of the khas-101, which until recently were the key striking force of the enemy, however after a long pause, aviation missile 22 and supersonic onyx missiles from the anti-ship complex, as well as one

missile 59 were used due to the effectiveness of work of our air defense against shaheds, out of 32 shaheds, 23 of the 16 naval calibers were shot down, 13 were destroyed, eight kh -22 cruise missiles and six more onyx missiles were fired. ionics are aimed at the port and critical infrastructure of odesa, where grain and oil terminals were hit , backup and loading equipment were damaged, the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelenskyi, said that russian terrorists deliberately aimed at the infrastructure of the grain agreement and every russian missile is a blow not only to ukraine , but to everyone in the world who seeks a normal and safe life to destroy the x-22 missiles , we have limited capabilities, in particular, these are only

the patriot and sampti complexes, and it can be assumed that these anti-aircraft missiles are nearby odesa so far there is no what gives a certain card -blange to the enemy, in turn, the onyx cruise missile with a range of up to 300 km from the bastion complex is also a difficult target to destroy . but last year there were several launches of these onyxes in odessa from the crimea and then there were reports that all these onyxes were destroyed by our anti-aircraft defense by our defense, i.e. now we can talk about the fact that the conditions were probably more favorable for the enemy when they could use the onyxes for strikes on odessa, the missiles probably went at an extremely low altitude on the black sea, which made it difficult to detect them in time. in conclusion, it can be noted that the enemy carried out a rather dangerous combined strike, and this once again creates the need

to increase the means of air defense in including around odesa, which volodymyr zelenskyi also spoke about today, because with his attacks the enemy is trying to ensure such a naval blockade of ukraine, because since sunday , no non-vessel has entered ukraine for loading and 11 cargo ships are currently in the jam. but unlike the missile terror of russia, which inflicts strikes on civilian objects, the armed forces of ukraine today destroyed the enemy's stockpile in the crimea, the russian army lost significant stocks that had been accumulated at the old crimean training ground , at least three ammunition depots were hit the detonation of ammunition continued from four o'clock in the morning until 9:00 in the morning and i think that it may continue until now, all this will actually complicate the enemy's actions to provide for the occupation forces in

the south, where our counter-attack continues, and heavy fighting is also taking place in the north in kharkiv and in the luhansk region and , first of all, also in the bakhmut direction, where ukrainian troops are conducting offensive operations in difficult conditions, today the general staff regarding the pakhmut direction, by the way, reported that during the hostilities, the russian occupiers retreated from the position near nutovo vasilivka, according to the spokesperson of the general staff, the defense forces are having partial success, they are gaining ground on new frontiers, and the enemy is putting up strong resistance, using reserves and suffering significant losses, and now a soldier of the consolidated tactical group, adam yevhen kozhirnov, mr. yevhena, congratulates you. glory to ukraine if you can hear from us now that you and i are continuing and you are different. just now he is near

bakhmut, there is a tactical joint group er-er and adam, this group operates in the principle of interaction with if i'm not mistaken, the fifth separate assault brigade with the 20th brigade and mr. yevgeny. congratulations if you can hear me. glory to ukraine . glory to the heroes . glory to the heroes, mr. serhiy. that you can add details to the messages of the general staff and about the tick, maybe also to the horikhov vasilivka . unfortunately, i am not authorized to tell where exactly our troops simply influenced the fact that the zone

of responsibility was called a-a zone of the western region , that is, now it is further south than bakhmut and therefore what is our hall - about the month or them under the bahmut, and if we were on the defensive until the month of may, then it was already may, june, july, ah. in principle, the situation changed at the end of the next payment - pressure and kurdivmvka are floating around , you can see it in the messages as well of our general staff and on resources such as the dibstate map. and now we will try to sort it out because , in fact, the connection is quite slow and not all of our viewers can hear our conversation qualitatively . now we will try

to call you once again. our the units are trying to advance both to the north and to the south, when we talk about the north, the main challenge there is precisely the heights near the bank, because in fact the enemy there in the area of ​​the bullfights on the heights uses the units as a curtain and uses additional reserves in order not to give our units the opportunity squeeze and throw out the enemy from these commanding heights, which in principle are quite important, just as they were the commanding heights near the tick, where all these commanding heights near the tick were occupied by our troops, and the enemy began carry out counter-attacks and, if i am not mistaken, during the last three days, the enemy is also trying to attack in order to somehow balance the advance of our troops, so that just the pincer and the behivka are the directions that remain important from the point of view of

the further advancement of our forces, and we also we are talking about the fact that the actions of our forces are also taking place in the south of bakhmut, where actually the units of the third separate storm brigade for a certain time pressed the enemy in the andriivka zone, this is precisely in the village between klichchivka and kordyumivka, the creators of the prerequisites in order to create a flanking threat for those enemy units that are currently defending the klichivka, now there is also an accumulation of our forces in order to continue to ensure this work and bring it to an end against them, i repeat, still actively uses reserves and when we talk about what the measures are related to the number of russian figs. this is happening in this area. this is true. the question is that our artillery should work more effectively now, in particular . as we know literally yesterday, the syrian general who is responsible for this direction in an interview

told the bbc that cluster munitions are actually already located near our guns in the bakhmut zone and i think that soon they will really be used in order to maximize the enemy's losses , which will really affect the nature of the hostilities . bakhmut has both an ideological significance and a strategic significance because from this area our armed forces can carry out offensive actions in those directions where the enemy is actually unable to mount a reliable defense . is happening now well, to create the prerequisites for all areas of the front to have a balance of forces which, relatively speaking, the enemy is trying to push through in various areas, we are talking about the fact that from kuping to svatove , during the last three days, the criminal remains so extremely active from

the point of view of action the general staff of the enemy says that there is no advance of the enemy, and those areas where he is trying to press in are, in principle, compensated by the actions of our armed forces, and there are also certain changes in in the direction of our zaporizhia front, but there the dynamics cannot be discussed, that the dynamics change in kilometers, we are talking about meters of combat operations. and there, in fact, the basis of the new tactics of the ukrainian armed forces is directed to the fact that, first of all, there are engineer sapper units that ensure the clearing of these the territory is withdrawn, then along this narrow corridor about the infantry, which is covered by our artillery, armored vehicles are used sufficiently in limited quantities, and we understand that so far there is no other format of combat operations for the ukrainian army

exists, but we understand that with the strengthening of the artillery, we expect that the process of exhausting the enemy will be completed there within 2-3 months, because now the auto-artillery is working on the first lines of the enemy, where the enemy is pulling up reserves, and long-range means of impression are working on the bodies of the enemy, including on zaporozhye front in order to prevent the transfer of forces and to carry out the destruction of those targets that are of significant importance for the effectiveness of the russian army, so that in any case we understand that we are now at the first stage of hostilities which directed primarily at the exhaustion of the enemy, this stage can last from two to three months, again, depending on the effectiveness against our artillery and long-range means of impression, and then the prerequisites will be created for these brigades, which are not currently involved in hostilities, to really be used for breakthroughs and for the solution is the question of bridging the southern corridor, which is currently

being obtained by the enemy. this work will not be easy, but in any case it must be carried out in order to really ensure ejecting customers from our territory, and then to another topic, which looks somewhat paradoxical, because it is about the fact that the suppliers of the ministry of defense of ukraine began to receive orders from the state audit audit service of ukraine with the demand to return the profit, what is the scandal about? through resolution no. 335, on the basis of which the state audit service began to make such prescriptions because this government resolution said that no profit was expected for enterprises that perform the tasks of the state defense

of the customer for the ministry of defense. this is it. this profit was taken by mistake in the very wording of the resolution, after which the minister of defense of ukraine said that it should be corrected at meetings in the government. these things were recognized that the resolution should be changed, but this did not happen and now the situation is developing in such a way that the state audit service itself, guided by this erroneous decision, forces the enterprises that have fulfilled state orders to return the share of profit that they should have earned by fulfilling these state orders. the situation looks paradoxical because you all understand deadlock and injustice, but this wheel of decisions continues and it actually creates such a tension in the relationship between suppliers to the ministry of defense , the ministry of defense itself, and actually other

state authorities, and now we will talk in our next guest about whether really this system of cancellation of profits has become so massive, does it really spread to this day, or is it actually still some kind of local cases that do not affect everyone enterprises and now we are joined by maksym plekhov - this is the chairman of the board of the association of volunteers and enterprises of the defense sector of the lviv defense cluster , mr. maksym. i welcome you to the good day express channel. serhiy would like to ask you whether the requirements of the state audit service reached the enterprises of the lviv defense cluster. suppliers of the ministry of defense to return profits, do you even know about this story? does it have any resonance among suppliers for

the ministry of defense, well, let's start with what the situation became active about a month ago, and at first it was oleksandr of sokolovkivska, i brought the situation to the public, i talked about the situation on the facebook page and today there this game told the situation , if you say what is happening today, it means first briefly, that is, there was a 335 resolution of the cabinet of ministers that made it impossible to actually include in their profit calculations by manufacturers , although the ministry of defense accepted these calculations with profit, and after a lot of appeals to the relevant committees of the verkhovna rada had a meeting with the president of the representatives of the federation of workers of ukraine, and the civil servants immediately resolved the problem, what was done for this, according to our information, this week there was a meeting of the cabinet of ministers of ukraine, and a new version of cabinet resolution 1275 was adopted. this is this resolution. a more general regulation regulates all issues and it should have resolved it today, the resolution has not

been published, we do not have, we do not know what was accepted there from the fact that the information comes from us unofficial sources, and the situation for the future has been corrected, but what about what has been happening for the past year and a half, the situation has remained the same, that is, in fact, the question of returning to the sums included in the calculation as profit. maybe that is what i want to pay attention to in any case to comment on regulatory acts that have not yet been published, well, i think this will not be a very smart decision, so i thought that in any case we should wait for the official publication and then understand what happened, although today we understand that if has not been published for several days, there are some issues of agreement, which in different points of view of different participants in the process regarding

the future of this document itself, that is, if we say something to the direct producers , they really understand with this today that if the situation is not resolved, then in fact, well, all 100% of the ball is the supplier's the property of the ministry of defense of the owls will be forced to close and the grounds. because those amounts that were included in the calculation as e profits were not received e were large e e differences of coconut dollars cancellation of tax benefits, the majority of the company did not make a profit, it made a loss. if i claim these amounts, which are prescribed in the calculations, this is completely the law of ukraine. here we need to remind you that it can be beneficial to whom. this is what we have seen recently that over the past 1.5 years, the ukrainian the ministry of defense bought a lot of products abroad, the winter really showed the reality of the situation with the supply of foreign products, unfortunately up to

90% of the products were of much lower quality than the products of ukrainian suppliers. i admit today that the ministry of defense is practically official, and the ministry of defense came out today with the desire to buy from all-ukrainian suppliers, who probably today confirmed the same quality that was there before the war, and confirmed here the prices that were today, and in that case, the only side that loses today is foreign suppliers, because they have all these norms for 335. so the household was never distributed , they fixed their prices in dollars and always received directions, so today there is a council of domestic suppliers with whom we communicate believe that some actions that may be with such problems for the implementation of the local manufacturer are related to ivan's forehead by foreign companies of their profits in the future in order to keep the e-e market in ukraine for themselves, and that ukrainian enterprises

today produce much cheaper completely to the quality and state standards, and they allow workers to become workers and pay taxes, well, the general situation is such that it is difficult to explain the situation. with this profit , that is , the profit was actually included in the calculation, and i don't know, within the limits of 30%. now i have they say that this is the amount that was calculated, everything that concerns the profits of the enterprise did not earn them but in any case it must be returned to the budget thus, indeed, all enterprises were made bankrupt, we are talking about it and how did it actually happen the head of the company a-a which produced the products of the ministry of defense at that time, all products were purchased under direct contracts , there was no possibility to purchase through prozorro , why are they a calculation so that the person who

signs it from the ministry should understand what is the actual profitability of production, is there no excess profit, that is, the head of the company, coming to sign the contract, provided a calculation from the company, which was told that it was production costs , material costs, taxes, campaign profit , on average, from what i know, the rework was set at the level of about 10 %. yes, because most of the companies that were able to resume production at the beginning of the war did not think about making money. yes, and they indicated the level of profit ministry of defense accepted these calculations, submitted them to the contract, they were an addendum to the contract, and then a year and a half later, no one wants to understand whether this amount that i wrote, received, did not receive the kind of profits, please, did you write such an amount , please, you must return this entire amount , why should i understand if that amount was in fact indicated by the supplier himself, how are you now , literally one and a half minutes, how are companies that make body armor

, clothes, etc., are they doing now, are there any orders from them, or is there a projected purchase plan for them? what is happening with him now? well, i would say today that we have a lot of enterprises . both the market and the suppliers of the ministry of defense are working. if we talk about the supply of the ministry of defense, the main problem that constantly hinders the planned production is actually the lack of long-term plans for product orders, the majority of products which is ordered needs to keep a huge number of personnel who can do it quickly, well, from this we understand that the main problem of the ministry of defense is problems with funds and they cannot order when they do not have funds, when they have funds, they want to receive products in 2 3 4 months, well, how do you say that it is very difficult for producers, yes, it is very difficult for producers but today we understand something that the whole country is difficult today

to the boys at the front, as well as to the workers, that's why we will overcome this problem together, we will work together that at the front , that's right, maksym, thank you very much for including these difficult conditions for your optimism, and i will remind our viewers that on the air of the financial press maksym plekhov was the chairman of the board of the association of volunteers and the enterprise of the defense sector of lviv, the defense cluster, this is who the main military results of this day were with, and more international and economic news later on vasyl's great air in the winter, stay on the espresso channel. thank you to his guests. we continue to remind you that this big ether
