the espressovat tv channel andriy salchuk and we will now continue to analyze the situation in particular at the front and now we are joined by expert ivan varchenko on matters of national security, mr. ivan, good day, good morning, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, mr. ivan, there are a lot of opinions now that the situation at the front is essentially such a friend the second phrase is the phrase of the offensive, which now, after the first attempt to break through the russian position itself, is now characterized by something else, namely, the gradual softening of the front line of the russian troops. what do you think, is this really the case and how long can this phase last ? well, you and i probably they repeatedly said that what the russians built on the occupied territory of the zaporozhye kherson region in

the donetsk region is such a wall that you really need to break through, break through with great efforts and expend a lot of energy, unfortunately of blood, and we were aware of it, and we said , including with our partners, that for this we need appropriate weapons and we need a lot of them. we were partially heard by our partners, and traditionally, for the ukrainian-russian war, we started with with those forces and we fight with those forces that we have without waiting for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow , when the russians will have the opportunity to change their defense even more and destroy the desire for independence. well, the price of the people themselves in the occupied territories is clear that we

we are trying to speed up the liberation of each point of ukrainian land, but you know, sometimes it happens that a military commander is faced with a question that is extremely rude in its simplicity. this is how the ukrainian counter-attack analyzes, that is, there is mr. ivan and mr. ivan , i ask you to continue like this, we are re -recruiting for the most part, of course, now we are annexing more precisely the offensive - these are people who are not ukrainians, not from ukraine, he is watching this. one of the observers, for example, is yan matvei, whom i also follow, a russian who does not live in russia, and here he says that in fact the ukrainian military is engaged in improving the position at the front, not a breakthrough, that is, in fact , it is about preparing the ground for

the next phase of the offensive, and there is still time for this, that is, he says that this is the second stage of the operation , which does not mean a large-scale dynamic offensive about fish, but this offensive will take place as soon as a favorable situation for this arises, since the ukrainian the military, quoting, have reserves for a powerful attack in the style of an offensive on iz a-a it is coming back to us p igor e-e p ivan i apologize mr. ivan e-e please continue like this and i ended with the fact that before every military leader before every commander there is a difficult dilemma often enough and what can be done about this high-rise until monday or the city or the loss of hundreds or thousands of soldiers and if we don't take it until monday i will

take it until tuesday or wednesday. command commanders they weigh the price at which they get this or that promotion, and i will remind you that in reality, combat operations consist not only in ironing the armed forces of one or another warring party under the flags, displacing the same enemy from the territory occupied by the enemy, and consist in destroying this the depth of the enemy is that there is not work on the foundation, but it is not visible, but they are taking place so that later we can build the structure we want quickly enough, and this work in the foundations is currently actively being carried out, we can see from the infrastructure on the logistics of the enemy, on the destruction of his manpower, equipment and the possibility of transferring this manpower and equipment, i mean bridges, i mean bases, command posts, we see it

every day. and this is also an element of our mood , that it is introduced, operative pauses of greater or lesser duration are taken, this it may well be and this means only one thing that we are such people, we are not an army that does not use the methods by which the russian army lives, which, as you remember , won pyrotechnic victories with bloody butchery assaults in the another settlement, killing tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of its citizens. well, as for the consequences of such positional actions, which are currently taking place and are not so visible, they are measured there by hundreds of meters or kilometers along the breakthrough of the front line, then i let me remind you that we had a similar situation in the kherson region on the right bank , when a positional war was fought along the front line and then a quick breakthrough and the expulsion

of the enemy from the right bank of the dnieper, similar situations occurred in front of the balaklia before the balakliya izyum-kupyan operation, which took place in the fall of last year, which was also a long period, a single front line with pressure and squeezing in certain areas and , in the end, an exit to the operational space of expelling the enemy from a large territory, therefore , today, fighting with the forehead is against the wall sometimes it makes sense, but it’s better not to fight head-on, but still to fight with artillery, which is what the ukrainian troops are doing, breaking through the enemy’s defenses in one place or another, but it definitely does not happen due to high losses of manpower, as the russians did in their time, i am now trying to understand for myself how it happened that many people got the impression that this offensive should almost be the finale of this war, and the success is that it should

end somewhere in yalta, in the crimea, and so on and similar, and in principle, i remember that there were many such simple announcements from representatives of the authorities, in particular, someone is no longer a writer for the authorities, but now someone completely different is already making predictions about what will happen if the counteroffensive is not so successful this is in particular mr. arestovych, who recently also shared his predictions or thoughts about the future here, we can certainly listen to him, i would like to ask you to comment on what you think about it in the best scenario, they uh-uh, they complicate winter even more, they bury themselves in crimea and bury themselves in the east, plus they are mobilizing and ready to enter, drones are being built there and against it, and for that, will we put a totally dependent ally on armaments for

us ? who is engaged in his own geopolitical planning i would say that it is difficult, of course, we can emotionally oppress farma and the logic of arguments oppress until the end they decide who gives us money money and weapons who could be in this ah this is our american friends better and they have different points of view i can't agree on етом между сообщения, that's why the arguments sound like this, our position is very simple, we are 91 years old, i don't know anything. that's how the position of mr. arrestovych is now. it's not as optimistic as i remember what happened recently when he was office advisor well, people have the right to comment here, the only thing here is that you should not be fascinated, even if it is supposed to be enchanted, and i am more of the opinion that we are possible, including a very optimistic scenario, a very optimistic

scenario for ukraine. i adhere to that thoughts that at the same time we need to prepare for a long marathon within the limits of this long marathon , good successful actions are possible when the russian warship simply takes paton at one of the stages of this great marathon and it also sinks in pieces, they sink during the marathon, but we also do not need to lose heart , we need to keep up the pace now that we are finally doing what russia is preparing for the fall. it is obvious, it is clear, she is trying. -e the rest of their partners to but collect such and such opportunities in order to demonstrate the existence of the russian army and now the possibilities of some of this russian army will succeed

. we will see this from them, but what concerns us we we understand that you are those things. the actions that are taking place at the front are only part of the war . we see the events that are happening inside the russian state. we see this inconsistency today and these are temporary trends in the russian elite that are manifested in one way or another. now in conflicts, in misunderstandings , including the military elite, including the political elite , we see how the russians are now treating the war, they have no other inspiring arguments in order to actively support putin's police, politics, and because of that processes can be significantly and significantly accelerated and when the processes at the same time and at the front are not successful, the lack of success of the second army of education as we called ourselves eh and the successes of the russian

defense forces simultaneously with the internal processes of economic eh eh problems and collapses, then all this can lead to the fairly quick er devastating collapse of the russian er federation of today, so here i would not especially talk about ten-year wars of attrition ten years of wars of attrition yes, russia is ready to talk about it on tv but there is also an awareness that they do not have the resources of reserves in order to wage long wars of attrition between them and a coalition of states that are ten times more afraid of this 2% of russia's gdp together with its satellites and about 60% of gdp in those countries which today have united around ukraine. yes, the russians are ready to place their entire gdp and their entire nation on the altar

of kutin interests . our partners do not think so, they want to save, they are not ready to pay the real price now in order to destroy the evil that is russia. but at the same time, we conduct a dialogue with them, within the limits of this dialogue, the further they go, the more they show humanistic attitudes and understand that precisely because of the enormous humanism of human humanism, yes, to allow ourselves such a tautology, but this is the destruction of russian of the modern empire of putin's e-e p ivan if after all this is a war , well, that is, we understand that it is still a war of attrition, and we also understand that russia will most likely have enough for at least a few more years of such a war, that is, whether in there are us relatively speaking, plan b in case the war will er drag on for a few more years, for example, because we basically see many examples in history when it er when it happened

like this, for example, the war in vietnam lasted 16 years, 10 years only for the united states before in the 75th year, long wars are not something unique in today's world history , we understand that the preservation of hostilities at a certain historical stage - this includes the desire of each side to rest and within the limits of this rest to find something more profitable for itself opportunities on the future, therefore, of course, the russians were not against preserving it, they already openly say that let us stay within the boundaries of the territories on which we are now, these are our constitutional territories, as they say, and let us . they say that ukraine must recognize the realities that have developed, yes. that is, in essence

, this is a call for us to put an end to the war and then we will find an opportunity to continue it after we take power. opportunities to take a break, catch your breath, and search and find using your parasitic right, including in the un security council, to look for winning scenarios for yourself... i don't foresee that russia has the resources that will allow it to continue the war for years, this is also the age of putin, this is also... -e poverty, which penetrates more and more into russian society , it is the lack of opportunities to mobilize the corrupt economy , it is the lack of prospects for the future, which

every russian should see for themselves, and they actually had the opportunity to see how the civilized world lives, they had access to alternative sources of information, those who wanted, and especially russian business and the russian middle class, of which there are not many, but he has the tools in his hands that allow the formation of russian gdp. they are definitely not are interested in sinking together with putin's regime. well, of course, the russian population, which currently does not receive, as i say , that they need to tighten their belts and will not receive the share of social benefits that they used to receive simply for nothing due to the fact that russia had the opportunity to receive these energy rubles to distribute to the population that did not work, that is , today the population is forced to work, forced to fight, and of course , this is not a temporary phenomenon for the population, so they are ready

were to accept it, but they will be told that this is your karma for years, then this will also speed up the internal process that will take place in russia. well, in the end, the russian armed forces, who saw that they are actually greeted with flowers, songs and dances in russia, i will remind you about the campaign of dvanar wagnerites to moscow, not in ukraine, but in ukraine they are losing artillery and small arms by fire, so these russian soldiers are also evolving in the direction of the fact that it is better to go there, they really love and respect them and seek a better fate there here, as for me, on the other hand, the ukrainians together with their partners with our partners are still looking for and finding opportunities to break through ukrainian seas that are built on ukrainian land. i am absolutely sure that we will have sections of the front where we make breakthroughs and in including significant impressive breakthroughs to date, preparatory work is underway and the fact that today the russians are
