[000:00:00;00] was all in order to preserve the dignity and make ukraine and the unique city of mykolaiv very proud after everything that the enemy did to mykolaiv. i think, well, surely who would have expected that she, a native of mykolaiv, would give a hand to a russian woman who, moreover, supports russian peace there? thank you for being with us, this is a program the verdict my name is serhiy rudenko zelensky held a stake in the dnipro they discussed the offensive defense and anti-aircraft defense the parliament extended martial law and mobilization until november 15 , 2023 the british ministry of defense believes that ukraine's counteroffensive is going according to plan well, the council dismissed the minister of culture oleksandr tkachenko, we will talk about this and other things in the next

hour. our guests today will be dmytro snighyryov, roman kostenko and yuriy gudymenko. we ask you about this , whether it is necessary to close the departure of people's deputies and officials abroad during the war yes no your opinion please leave your thoughts and comments under this video and we already have our first contact the guest is dmytro snegyryev, a military expert, co-chairman of the public initiative right matters, mr. dmitriev. congratulations and i am glad that you are on our air , thank you for the invitation. since we are asking our viewers on youtube whether it is necessary to close the departure of people's deputies and officials abroad for the duration of the war, what do you say, should it be closed the border, is there still a need for a special procedure for the departure of officials and deputies outside of ukraine

? according to the data of the special services, more than 10,000 people did not use it due to corruption reasons, that is, it is about the fact that it is actually a shadow income for some well, let's say it is unclean, as it is at the hands of high-ranking officials. the same applies to our own people's deputies. the speech about yury arrestova resting in the maldives is a clear evidence of the fact that any talk about the fact that people's deputies have the right to travel on business trips in the conditions of martial law is impractical, moreover, if he today handed over a suspicion that shows that he entered false information into official documents, this is a decision and the first is the illegal actions of the arrestee himself and, accordingly

, the existence of schemes that allow people 's deputies to use the so-called business trips for their own recreation, and not only their own, but, accordingly, members of their families, moreover, let's talk about the fact that the facts are glaring. should take care of the issues of the equipment of the ukrainian army, pray for the military leaders today, in fact, they issued the appropriate arrest on the property of the head of the odesa regional center of equipment well, the sums are simply amazing, millions of dollars, more than 600 million dollars not earned

fortunes, so to speak, in the conditions of war, of course, mr. dmytro, we will talk about the odesa troops and what is happening behind the scenes of the war. july, when russia launched a massive missile attack on ukraine, let's hear what the supreme commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, volodymyr zelenskyy, had to say about it. they managed to shoot down more than 30 missiles, the absolute majority of which were used against us, there were several hits , and fragments of missiles fell, but it is very important that the audacity of this attack managed to destroy the anti-aircraft defense , well done, on the night of july 27, the enemy launched

a missile attack on the port infrastructure of odesa. caliber missiles were fired from a semi-submarine in the black sea and it is critical to the low altitude that it is difficult to detect and er kubrakov has already informed the minister of infrastructure that the russians have already destroyed 26 objects of the port infrastructure and five civilian vessels in 9 days of attacks. the behavior that we have been observing for 10 days from the russian occupiers when they actually destroy the south of ukraine and launch massive missile strikes on mykolaiv, odesa, on the entire port infrastructure, we noticed that the attack is being carried out on

the entire port infrastructure except odesa mykolaiv, chornomorsk, reni and other ports that ensured the operation of the so-called grain corridor, pray that the russian federation, abandoning the treacherous component of the capture of ukrainian ports, and proceeded to the actual cutting off of our state from the black sea, the deprivation of the status of a maritime state, the actual destruction of the port infrastructure will lead to a de facto blockade of ukraine, we are talking about the fact that import operations of our state will be called into question by experts, and these are losses to the ukrainian budget in the amount of 35 to 40 billion dollars, the ports were used not only as a quality, let's say so, of the functionality of the thorn corridor, according to which the lion's share of ukrainian not only agricultural products, but also metallurgy was shipped through the port infrastructure , therefore, the tactics of the russians are more than understandable, in addition , depriving us of the possibility of e-e shipment

of ukrainian grain, the russian federation actually seizes ukraine's position on the world food market is no accident today, during the so-called russia summit , africa attracted russian parties about the fact that they can transfer 25-30 thousand tons of grain to african countries for free. moreover, let's say dumping conditions without even the cost of delivery, that is, we are talking about the fact that russia is exclusively solving the economic issues of pushing ukraine out of the market one by one the leader of the players in this particular segment of the food food market, and this , accordingly, deprives us again of the lion 's share of foreign exchange earnings, in addition, it is worth talking about the fact that the russian federation

is thus trying to decide for itself the issue of the lifting or easing of economic sanctions is not by chance actually as a condition , but in fact blackmail of the western countries. -e liquidation of the package of economic sanctions, which had a sectoral nature, were primarily aimed at, say, the impossibility of replenishing the russian treasury due to the sale of mineral fertilizers and, accordingly , russian grain, in addition to the conditions of the russian this unlocking of the federation was actually carried out by ammonia in togliatti

, odesa , that is, the low conditions of which indicate that the russian federation has switched to actual dictation, that is , blackmailing the civilized world. the fact that they want to replace russian grain with ukrainian grain and how it was and in what atmosphere we will now see and hear the components of this paradoxical picture, all on the one hand, the scientists will be an obstacle to the rates of our grain and fertilizers, and on the other hand, i will say the current crisis situation on the world food market directly accuses us of hypocrisy, our country is able to replace ukrainian grain both commercially and in the form of free aid to the most needy african countries, especially since this year we again expect a record

harvest. of the african union azali assolmania and he also spoke about grain and the crisis , not about russia's war against ukraine but about the russian-ukrainian crisis, we will hear from the russian-ukrainian crisis the future of our partnership will be under threat if this crisis continues therefore we must find a way out of it to try to save the thousands of people who depend on these imports africa's economic food security will be under particular threat as the continent has been hit hard by the shock of rising food prices caused by supply disruptions therefore we call interested parties to find a compromise solution to ensure the safe delivery of grain and fertilizers from ukraine and russia to our continent, mr. dmytro, participants from 47 of american countries and of which 17 are the leaders of these countries and there and then there are prime ministers

and vice prime ministers, they came to the aggressor who is waging an aggressive war against ukraine and began to tell him that africa will suffer from what he is doing, but none to putin's call to putin to stop the war, not a single warning was sounded. they only talk about the fact that efforts must be made so that this crisis passes, why do africans react so weakly when it is actually about the possibility of a food crisis, a major food crisis in africa, about what actually eh, currently the african continent is a zone with all the fruitful attention of the main leading countries of the world, respectively, the united states, the people's republic of china, and russia is trying to play a certain role on the african continent. currently, there is actually a military presence of the russian federation

through the actual involvement of the so-called private military companies in 15 african countries. it is worth saying that such a round reaction is an attempt by african countries to solve their arcane economic interests at the expense of ukraine and is not accidental if we remember exactly an african country, some african countries were the so-called mediators at the time of the settlement, as they said , of the conflict situation between russia and ukraine, not even calling this conflict situation , i.e., to expect from the countries of the west, e.e., africa. i apologize for the condemnation of russian aggression. they are trying to lobby in e-e and get for themselves the maximum preferences in the form of either loans from the russian federation or

military cooperation or a solution to the issue of food supply, and dumping prices, this is worth talking about and the tactics of the so-called peacekeepers are being used again, that is, in fact, african countries are playing on putin's political field, creating , accordingly, the diplomatic color that is necessary for the russian federation, namely to force ukraine to sit down and for the so-called school of victories with the occupying country, and on the russian conditions, mr. dmytro, russia has always pursued a colonial policy in relation to african countries , that is, they have always, well, at least during the soviet union, and then russia as the legal successor of the ussr tried to pursue a policy where

russia, like the soviet union, was, if not an older brother, then at least one of those regions that always influenced the situation in african countries. today , we saw this. the president of the central african republic, it was also strange, because only today there was information about an attempted military coup in nigeria, and here is the one who wanted to create coups and carry out a coup in russia . putin is appearing at this african summit, many of us spoke about the fact that they are ready to teach africans the russian language and are ready to open higher education institutions in many african countries. what is putin for now , that is, to, relatively speaking, create some new economic and political reality in the world in

contrast to the european union, in contrast to nato, that is, for what does putin want africa? in fact, this is an attempt to break through the economic and political blockade of the russian federation, and the country has maintained its position, at least on the african continent, having been de facto isolated from the countries of europe and the civilized world. is trying to carry out a policy of expansion not only on the african continent, but also, accordingly, a country in the middle east, that is, trying to displace the leading countries of the west from these positions, and these dictated similar visits, let's say, by putin and meetings like that, russia africa , in relation to prigozhin, it is worth talking about the fact that this mutiny, which was supposedly russia's, was put down by the russian special services, as

there was no such mutiny. another question is that the main intelligence department of the ministry of defense why she called this orderly mutiny real, the mutiny itself was used by the russian dictator to destroy the real military opposition to the russian dictator , what is actually happening in the russian army at the moment , a total cleansing that resembles the years 37-39 , that is, the change of the actual entire russian generalship and the appearance of a beautiful one, it is not accidental, this is once again a signal countries of africa that the russian federation will represent its presence precisely at the expense of the wagner ppc and other ppcs that are legally prohibited on the territory of the russian federation for the reason that

now there are massive missile and drone attacks on the territory of ukraine in the south of ukraine. yurii hnata, the spokesman for the air force of the armed forces of ukraine , says that the next winter will be quite difficult for ukraine, especially for the infrastructure of energy facilities. he says that the russians will bet on kamikaze drones, which are cheaper and easier to manufacture, however, the enemy will also use missiles, although he does not have them in large quantities now, well, considering these recent massive missile strikes, what can you do, dmytro to say about the prospects of ukraine's winterization. i think that most ukrainians are now thinking about what the winter will be like, whether it will be light, whether it will be warm, or whether there will be water, because this is quite important, and we know that russia has surrendered to everything, mr. serhii . let's talk about the fact that striking

a critical the infrastructure is laid by the russian military as a coercion for peace , i.e., accordingly, the russian federation will not depart from the constant practice of striking the energy structure on the eve of the heating season that's why the winter will be harsh. let's tell the truth to ukrainians and not be in the regime of rose-colored glasses. during this period, the russian federation was able to resume the production of cruise missiles , e.e., as an air-based sea-based missile . currently , the russian federation has moved to the actual industrial production of both so-called geraniums and, accordingly, kamikaze drones, lancets, and

ova. in addition, let's talk about what the russian federation, according to the estimates of the western side, has the possibility of renewable production of about 100 cruise missiles per month, the only salvation for ukraine is the creation of a rich, frantic air defense system that will be able to cover ukraine's own critical infrastructure and ensure the normal passage of the heating season , that is, the basis for our energy security - this is the work of the ukrainian air defense and, accordingly , the help of the western countries, and it is no coincidence that the latest packages of military and technical assistance from the leading countries and, accordingly, the united states of the states is primarily a missile defense system, in accordance with the already existing air defense system, our partners understand very well that without the opportunity to break the course of events directly on the battle line, the russian federation will in the future use

its tactics of constant terror against the first turn of the civilian population and, accordingly , objects of critical energy infrastructure. thank you, mr. dmytro, for the conversation. this was dmytro snyryov, a military expert, co-chairman of the public initiative right matters, friends, we work directly on the air of the espresso tv channel, as well as on our social networks and on the youtube platform , we ask you to join our e-e resources and take part in our survey for those who are currently watching us on youtube, we are conducting a survey and ask you about whether it is necessary to close the exit for the border to people's deputies and officials during the war options for answers yes no well you can leave your opinion in the comments besides friends you can join his club of sponsors

, information appeared on the internet resources of ukrainian pravda that the president's office blocked the departure of people's deputies and officials abroad, and as reported by the interlocutor of ukrainian pravda, this it is connected with the fact that officials and people's deputies abuse their trip abroad, then go to rest in the maldives , as did yuriy aristov, who was deprived of his e-e by the verkhovna rada of ukraine today of the deputy's mandate, he wrote in his own hand a statement about leaving the parliament, but we understand that juryaristov left the parliament against his own will. obviously, this is the result of preventive work with him by the office of the president of ukraine, and according to a source in the office of the president of ukraine,

the resolution will now be finalized which regulates such business trips abroad and vacations abroad in relation to the military, too, well, you see the message of david arahami and the statement of yuriy himself arrested, of course, for himself, for himself , for the parliamentary committee where yuriy worked aristov i think it was also a surprise because it was the parliamentary committee on national security, defense and intelligence, where our guest today , roman kostenko, also works . there was information that

the ministry of defense of great britain believes that the counteroffensive of ukraine is going on. according to the plan developed jointly with great britain and the united states of america in the winter, the minister noted that kyiv is showing due caution by refusing to send a large number of western-armed people through the dense russian minefields. he added that the ukrainian military maintains enough firepower to make a breakthrough at the right time. this is the answer to the questions of many of our viewers and readers who read our news on the espresso tv website and leave comments. what about the counteroffensive? the counteroffensive continues great britain believes that a counteroffensive is underway. so, in principle, we will wait for the results

of this offensive by the armed forces of ukraine and we will believe and help our ukrainian army so that it wins this war. today, putin also spoke about the counteroffensive of ukrainians. well, he lies as always but well, in this situation, as they say, you need to know the enemy, you need to know everything legally, and you need to understand what the enemy says, how he breathes, what the main occupier of the russian federation, vladimir putin, says about the ukrainian we will hear the counteroffensive, as for the last days, here we confirm that the hostilities have been activated and in a significant way, the main front of the attack took place in the direction, as

they say, the west, of the main attack in the zaporozhian direction. all requests for a content entry have been stopped by the enemy, rejected with great losses. you can't trust putin, you can listen to him , but you can never trust his words , because they always lie, ukraine started the main the new york times today published a counteroffensive with such a general force that the ukrainian command began to strengthen the military and, in particular, the reserves that were trained in the west, that is, in western europe , they had not been used before, the new york times wrote about this with reference to two officials from the pentagon, reinforced ukrainian the groups will try to advance to the city of tokmak and, in case of success, to melitopol in the zaporizhzhia

region, ukrainian officials informed their ukrainian colleagues. in this way, the armed forces of ukraine want to destroy the land bridge between territories of ukraine and crimea occupied by russia, at least advance to a distance or make the peninsula accessible to ukrainian artillery , the new yorkers article says, in case of success, the operation may take from one to three weeks, that is , the americans, the american press claims that the armed forces of ukraine are successfully attacking in the direction of zaporizhzhia, moving towards the sea of ​​azov in order to destroy the land corridor that was formed after the occupation of part of zaporizhia oblast and part

of kherson oblast. thus, ukrainians as the new york times claims, they want to go to azov to the shores of the sea of ​​azov and from there calmly fire at themselves, including the kerch bridge, including the military bases and ammunition depots located on the crimean peninsula, and this is obvious, er, i understand the newest and slowest information that is available from our american partners, which we try not to talk about, especially in ukraine, because, as valery zaluzhnyi said, the counteroffensive is going according to its plan, and you should not worry about it, ukrainians everything it will be fine, let's hope for that , and we already have roman kostenko, people's deputy of ukraine, colonel of the security service of ukraine, mr. colonel, glad to welcome you on our

air. that in the new yorker today there was information that ukraine has started the main thrust of the counter-offensive and this thrust is going to be developed to the city tokma k and in case of success to melitopol in the zaporizhzhia region. this is how the americans say the armed forces of ukraine they want to destroy the land bridge between the territories occupied by russia and crimea, and the american press writes that the operation , if successful, could take from one to three weeks. you are also optimistic about such a scenario. well, we all understand that this is a very important scenario for us, and i think that sooner or later it will be a question only in the next three months, but this is almost the only scenario, one of the only scenarios that could be this and it was constantly talked

about, this is the rupture of this, well, the division of the enemy group into two parts let's say so for the eastern and southern parts, then we have a chance, then if we do it, the only question will be how many enemies are left to stay on our territory now, the defense forces are doing everything for this, the situation is difficult and we will see how it will all develop it will depend not on what our western partners say or what the media write, but on how our soldiers will fight, what means we will have, how the enemy will behave, what his rear will be, what will be the opportunities to tighten reserves, that is, there are a lot of factors that affect it, but this is how the information is presented
