[000:00:00;00] the so-called geraniums and, accordingly, kamikaze drones, lancets and ova , in addition, let's talk about the fact that 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 multi-satellite system air defense that will be able to cover the critical infrastructure of ukraine and ensure the normal passage of the heating season, that is, the basis for our energy security, is the work of ukrainian air defense and, accordingly, the help of western countries is not coincidentally, the latest packages of military-technical assistance from the leading countries and , accordingly, the united states, is primarily a topic of anti-aircraft missiles, in accordance with the existing

anti-aircraft system, our partners understand very well that without the opportunity to break the course of events directly on the line of combat, the russian federation and in the future will use its tactics of constant terror against, first of all, the civilian population and , accordingly, objects of critical energy infrastructure. thank you, mr. dmitry, for conversation this was dmytro snyiryov, a military expert, co-chairman of the public initiative right matters, friends, we work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our social networks and on the youtube platform. we are asking you to join our e- resources and participate in our survey for those who now watch us on youtube , we are conducting a survey and we ask you about whether it is necessary to close the departure of people's deputies and officials abroad during the war, the options for

of preventive work with him by the office of the president of ukraine and as a source in the office of the president of ukraine says , the resolution regulating such trips abroad and vacations abroad in relation to the military will also be finalized. yuriy is arrested, of course, for himself, for himself, for the parliamentary committee where yuriy aristov worked. 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. we are still waiting for inclusion, i hope that the editors will be able to contact mr. roman kostenko well, today

there was information that the ministry of defense of britain believes that the counteroffensive of ukraine is going according to plan , the minister of the armed forces said about this in an interview with the telegraph newspaper in the ministry of defense of great britain, james hippie, according to him, ukraine's counteroffensive is taking place in accordance with 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 weapons personnel through dense russian minefields. he added that the ukrainian military retain enough firepower to make a breakthrough at the right time, well, this is the answer to the questions of many of our

viewers and readers who read our news on comments are left on the espresso tv website. and what about the counteroffensive? the counteroffensive continues. great britain believes that the counteroffensive is going according to plan . 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 in in this war, today, putin also spoke about the counteroffensive of the ukrainians. well, he lies as always, but in this situation, as they say, you need to know the enemy, and you need to know everything legally, and you need to understand what the enemy says, how he breathes, what the chief says. the occupier of the russian federation, vladimir putin, we will hear about the ukrainian counteroffensive. as for the last days, here we really confirm that the military operations

are activated and, in a significant way , the main events of the conspiracy took place in the direction, as they say, in the west, in the direction of the main strike in the zaporozhian direction. at one of the troop sites on the venej, the enemy did not have all the means of success , the enemy’s advances were stopped , they were shaken with heavy losses. you can’t trust putin , you can listen to him, but you can trust his words it can never be done, because they always lie. ukraine launched a major counter-offensive with such a headline. the new york times published today. the ukrainian command began to strengthen the military and on the front lines, in particular , with reserves that trained in the west. well, that is, in western europe, this was not used before

. new wrote about it. the york times , citing two officials from the pentagon, reinforced ukrainian groups will try to advance to the city of tokmak and, in case of success, to melitopol in the zaporizhia region, the ukrainian officials of ukrainian colleagues. in this way, the armed forces of ukraine want to break the land bridge between the territories of ukraine occupied by russia and crimea in order to at least advance to a distance or make the peninsula accessible to ukrainian artillery , according to the article of the new yorkers, the operation, in case of success, can 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 zaporozhye , moving towards the sea of ​​azov in order to

destroy the land corridor that was formed after the occupation of part of zaporizhzhya oblast and part of kherson oblast. in this way, according to the new york times, the ukrainians 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 military bases and ammunition depots located on to the crimean peninsula and it is obvious er. as i understand it, the latest and slowest information is from our american partners, which we try not to talk about er, especially in ukraine, because how said valeriy zaluzhny the counteroffensive is going according to its plan and don't worry about it, ukrainians. everything 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, colonel of the security service of ukraine. mr. colonel, i have already begun to tell our television audience about the fact that the information appeared in the new york times today that ukraine has launched the main thrust of the counteroffensive and this thrust will be developed to the city of tokmak and, in case of success, to melitopol in the zaporizhzhia region. this is how the americans say that the armed forces of ukraine want to destroy the land bridge between the territories occupied by russia and crimea, and the american press writes that the operation , in case of success, 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 matter of just the next three months, but this is practically the only scenario, one of the only scenarios that it could be, and they were constantly talking about it, this is the split of this, well, the division of the enemy group into uh, two parts. let's say yes to the eastern and southern parts, then we have a chance, then if we do it, then the only question will be how long the enemy has left to stay on our territories now, the defense forces are doing everything for this, the situation is difficult and we will see how it will develop, however, it will depend not on what our western partners say or what is written in the media, but on how our soldiers, who will be in our country, will fight whole means as he will behave against him, what will he have behind him, what will he be able to raise the reserves, that is, there are a lot of factors that affect this, but this is how the information is presented , for three weeks at the beginning and all this, as you remember

, they gave us information that in may we will be in the crimea and in june there on the borders of 1991, and we understand that it is much more difficult than just making predictions on tv , the united states defense minister says that ukraine has enough opportunities to continue the counteroffensive. does not comment on the progress of the operation yet, but noted that kyiv has still not sent part of the units and military equipment eh, i don’t , well , it is difficult to argue with the secretary of defense of the united states of america, but from the point of view of providing long-range eh artillery guns and anti-aircraft installations and regarding the supply of aircraft, that is, i understand that lloyd is still talking about the fact that we have given ukraine all that we could give at the moment, because we quite often hear

complaints about the lack of this, the lack of that , the lack of that well, i always i will give an example that if we compare the resources of the russian federation and ukraine that russia has resources that allowed it to prepare its resources in order to fight with countries like the thirty plus 28 nato countries, they were preparing for this that in all nato countries have tens of thousands of tanks, for example, tens of thousands of airplanes , the bulk is the usual united states, but they are . and russia was preparing its army for this, and now russia is fighting against one country, against our state, and therefore it is enough to say that we have enough resources yes, we have enough to maintain the defense and carry out some separate operations, but in order to be on a par with the russian federation and

to be able to plan several operations there at once, not in one place, because it is important to be able to do two there the main ones, because in the modern introduction of hostilities, with the development of modern means of intelligence, it is very difficult to remain unnoticed when troops are transferred, so i think that we need more weapons, this is the first thing because we can compare yes, we we say that we didn't get airplanes at all. i'm not saying that these are the key weapons for a counteroffensive, but they should be. what are we talking about tanks? there were many coalitions and they talked a lot about it, but now modern ones have arrived in ukraine. if we're talking about the leopard -2 no more than 60 tanks there will be enough. let's say yes, despite the fact that russia has up to 20,000 different types of tanks in service, including old ones, but there we

are waiting for another leopard 1, these are also tanks somewhere at the level of the t-62 ago it is possible and sufficient, but the question for is sufficient, but the question is for what of course, in the fight against the russian federation, no country could resist the russian federation with its resources, so we need more weapons, and these weapons will help our guys survive there. i would not say that this is enough. the question is enough for what. of ports of seaports e-e which the russian federation has already started fp with reference to the ukrainian military e-e writes about the fact that the armed forces of the russian federation actually blocked all ukrainian ports after russia's withdrawal from the grain agreement well, of course, we are talking about the fight against sea piracy, carried out by vladimir putin and his henchmen, how

can the measure help ukraine in the current situation and whether it will help to unblock ports, taking into account the fact that there is legislation, international legislation on the legal field which regulates free navigation well, we know that the nato countries refused, there was a reference to them, but they did not refuse to enter their ships into the black sea, plus there is this uh, there is uh, international legislation, first of all, which he talks about the use of the bosphorus strait and the fact that warships cannot be brought there and of course the question is correctly asked whether it is possible of course it is possible because it is beneficial for everyone and now in order to unblock our ports we need to do two

things first provide an opportunity to open up the situation in our territorial and economic waters, it should be either er-e means of intelligence of our partners or give us access, let’s say there to well to our er-e and means of impression er-e against ship missiles like our neptune er-e or some foreign samples that will allow us to hit enemy ships that enter the territorial or economic waters of ukraine. i think this will be the first step when, in the absence of a fleet as such, which could oppose the russian federation, we would be able to control our territorial economic waters, that is what without any fear, let's say so, our partners can hand over to us

in order for us to control our part of the black sea . linda thomas greenfield has been pretty tough on russia's position on how we should hold russia accountable let's hear both sides on this issue only one country is weaponizing food only one country is responsible for suspending the black sea grain initiative we all need to call on russia to stop its attacks on global -food security and continue to expand and fully implement the black sea grain initiative and we must continue to hold russia accountable for its an illegal war against ukraine was not provoked, mr. colonel, in your opinion, what will happen if

the next step is to swallow this impudence of putin and actually block ukraine’s access to the black sea, well, this is such a chain of systemic systemic errors of the world, the first was when they swallowed ee from the very beginning in 14 in the year of the nd, the annexation of crimea and then for all these war in donbas and then the invasion there at the beginning , we remember how it all happened there , we tried to close our eyes . where we are weak, and if we are and the world will forgive, they will take the next step, it will be more difficult for the world, so russia can be contained, let's say, within the borders and under control only when for every misdeed it will receive at the hands or at least a hint of what she will receive or will see that the world is ready

to do this, then you can conduct a dialogue with them wherever there is some weakness , er. well, that is, let's say the russians. they always accept weakness for any kindness and begin er not to act imposing accordingly the world should understand their motives or their will, but unfortunately i see something i still haven't fully understood, i guess ukrainians understand every child and every person in ukraine, and the big politicians who sit in the un in other countries still somehow haven't been able to understand it thank you mr. colonel, now you have a language. it was a novel. kostenko, colonel of the security service of ukraine, people's deputy of ukraine, friends, we work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms, for those who are watching us live now, please put if you like this video, subscribe to our social networks, read our news on the espresso tv website, the most reliable information from

ukraine in the world, the frontline chronicle, everything is on our espresso tv website, please join our website, we work for you three hours a day, seven days a week well and don't forget for those who are watching now on youtube that we are conducting a poll today on whether people's deputies and officials should be banned from traveling abroad during the war yes no your opinion please write your opinion in the comments and we have our next guest yuriy gudymenko junior sergeant of the armed forces of ukraine, commander of the sapper division, former leader of dem axes, mr. sergeants, i congratulate you and i am glad to see you on our air , junior sergeant thank you, everyone, have a good evening, thank you, let's start with information which appeared today about the fact that the office of the president blocked the departure of people's deputies abroad to officials, the source of ukrainian pravda

says that they will regulate by a resolution of the verkhovna rada how people's deputies and officials should leave according to your opinion or is it necessary uh, don't let everyone uh out of the country, or is it still necessary to create a certain filter thanks to which, uh, part of the officials can leave for work? well, not to the maldives , of course, but well, for work, they will be able to go outside of ukraine. the world and it can and is necessary no, of course a filter is needed, if only because a huge number of deputies really work for the benefit of ukraine , it holds a huge number of international meetings, and, well, the diplomatic corps itself actually cannot cope, and of course what is needed filter but why did this also happen? it is clear, because with a difference of literally 24 hours or

even less than 20 hours, yes, there was a scandal with a people's deputy, uh, from a servant of the people , arreston, yes, and then immediately a scandal with dubinsky, who is now, well, he is also merits of the people, now he is non-factional, one scandal after another, i understand the logic of what this causes, well, very carefully, i will say that it is not incomprehensible, zero among the fighters, well , at least those with whom i communicate, yes , accordingly, the reaction went straight back, that is, to ban everyone, but also it is so long it will not be necessary to organize work, and well, before that, we have all seen it, but we have already forgotten , because of so much news, that uh, uh , it's the same kolya tishchenka, yes, he quietly went to thailand there, conditionally, i don't remember how much

it seems a week this week he scheduled one meeting there with someone there um he met with a deputy minister of thailand there uh he met once now about himself with another he spent time on the beach and everything was fine with him everything was fine uh well of course, that shouldn't be the case, well, no maybe because now, in those conditions when the war has become very tense, very delicate, our offensive is going on, it is going painfully, and of course the tension in society is very high, and only we did not have enough to shake it up with such fields that rest peacefully while others we can't afford it and why do you think officials and deputies don't feel the war in ukraine, well, this is a general question, well, it can't be generalized like that

, yes, because a large number of officials and deputies feel perfectly what war is like at the front, i met deputies yes and deputies of past convocations and i know that for a large part of people who work for the state apparatus and in the regions in the municipal office at the all-ukrainian level, it hurts for them and you know very well that we only had a deputy on the air yes right in front of me, a colonel er, kostenko, but for a significant number of people, there really is no war, er, more precisely, they don’t exist in the war, er, and they, even if i’m honest, the hole doesn’t happen very often , why can their behavior be tracked in some other way? -is kentu, yes, i picked up there kuma, you took me on my way there, i went there to rest, because

the work is very hard from 9:00 to 6:00 from monday to friday. they can get sick and you have to go and rest, of course there well, maybe not to the maldives, maybe somewhere in spain, uh, they are there, i say again, they very often stupidly do not beat the hole, that they are doing something immoral, this is their modusoretal , this is their principle of action, and such people must be treated uh i found uh if i can be honest a little bit also oral possibility from my point of view but very effective effective remedy very i found them i ask guys eh dear tell me please i should write something on social networks, and on which sites there are articles that i should post. well, there are 40-50 thousand dollars, i

say. yes. and how much do you think, after the end of this war, it will cost people like you? to your feet interrupted well, you have three more, maybe five, and now people are already starting to think a little about the fact that the world around them seems to have changed, and sometimes sometimes they would not mind changing along with this world, and because lagging behind the logic according to which the country develops yes, and with which people and the speed with which people change. it can be very expensive. it's not that i'm calling for judgment on the part of soldiers and veterans. no, i'm just talking about the fact that the world is changing irrevocably and it would be very nice to change one's place in the world and to prove how important you are to this society, because society can say that well, it seems, my friend

, life will not be bad without you either, well, you mentioned your interlocutors, and for some reason, my head was constantly spinning, what about the military commissar? what about the military commissar? why? because the odesa military commissar borisov, who for a very long time issued military tickets and engaged in mobilization, today the court seized his property, and it is about land plots for more than two hectares of houses and apartments in odessa, as well as six elite cars before that, we know that borisov was taken into custody and he still has real estate in spain, it is written there, either not by his wife or by something . i did not see that a soldier drives six luxury cars, if

he owns two houses or has two or three apartments there, well, the impression is that he landed somewhere, landed in odessa, no one saw him, and suddenly it turned out that he a multi-millionaire that he is a very wealthy man that he owns the world your question is about this why did he succeed for so long is it rhetorical or is it factual because very similar not rhetorical well because well we all know the answer because it is corruption because he has undermined everyone around in order for everyone to turn a blind eye to all this history, it worked, well, it is, let's call things by their names, this is not today's invention, and it worked for decades, that's such a system . yes, and few people were interested

in the military. year and now they are directly in the focus of attention because they have too much power and too much attention of society to them, but they, again, they are, well, in their life, in their life, war is of course mainly in the body and in the fact that the flow of people who want to bring them 500 bucks, but he knows very well that his predecessor, his predecessor, now lives there somewhere, well, relatively speaking, yes, in the canaries or what is fashionable there, yes, because he took bribes all his life in this position, his predecessor now , if he is alive, is also there somewhere on a cozy villa and because he also took bribes all his life, this is the same in them as in the military commissions as well as in some officials in them caste yes that is caste of people with their own rules of the game and the
