[000:00:00;00] heroic holds on, i think this phrase already er everyone knows it and you understand that it is so and there is er there if we take it further south to and is trying to break it in order to have some kind of success for itself, yes, and in principle, in order to force us to maneuver the troops, it is possible to pull some parts away from the southern direction where we are trying to be active parts, as for bahmut, the situation there is equal and there is an enemy controls bakhmut in the north of bakhmut there, in principle, without changes in the south there, especially without changes

, but there, according to some data, we should be there, what is tactical equality ? it's crazy that nothing in particular is happening there. well, as it turns out, the enemy is trying these days to capture the entire audiobook on the line about what to capture , and they are still trying to take control of them , that's why he's taking such nasty actions there, but he has it didn't work out. on avdiivki, the situation is even worse there, because anyone who looks at the map can see that it is like this, so you can say that the operational environment there is not yet complete , but the enemy is hanging on all sides very firmly, the enemy is pushing from the front , trying, but our defenders did not allow this to be done by closing the donbass region , eh, where do we have the task of the list of strategic turnover , without going down to the south, eh, we are talking about

the zaporizhia direction, here, too, the enemy is here, the enemy is already in the defense somewhere, he is trying to turn eh their lost proposals that we there they took away again at the tactical level in some directions our troops are active or at the same time destroying the enemy's potential for large operational advances there we don't have but at the same time we will say according to the data of the scale i would say yes uh small there we have tactical success there, we got stronger, got a foothold, moved on in the conditions of the war, this is what we can do, having lost large territories at the beginning , we understand that now returning them is very valuable for us and very difficult in terms of our of defenders' lives yes, and spending resources on it but we have to do what well, going down to the very south to kherson

, there are also mainly defensive battles from our side of the enemy with some elements of advancing the offensive, and let's say we have some successes they are also ours, let's say so, the special forces do not allow the enemy and melody to develop blows to him both on the right and on the shore and directly on the left today in the wall street journal e-e writes about the fact that cluster munitions that were transferred ukraine gave them a pulse to the ukrainian counteroffensive, they allow them to take new positions, the publication writes that they hit a larger area than ordinary artillery shells, strike at concentrations of russian infantry, clear the way for the advance of ground troops, are only cluster munitions, which are talked about so much in the western press, enough for the advance

of our troops, i.e. which is now critically necessary for the armed forces of ukraine for an effective counteroffensive well, of course, specific ammunition is effective, but it is not worth exaggerating either, their value is still the beginning let's go, we need to look at the map, especially there, nothing changes for us, we will say yes, a meter behind the honey, we look at the enemy's territory , and there is, but they are effective, but let's say so , with some candidates, ammunition, and even the battle, they are a win, we need a compass, when the question is, what do we need, we need a spectrum there er, there are various types of ammunition, of course, dyes and ordinary ones, and in their own cassettes. fragments and rock chickens - that’s right, because there are supplies to destroy the equipment

. complex, but of course, it will be enough to increase our capabilities. well, what is needed, we have already talked about this many times , now what kind of artillery is the god of war, of course, not the only artillery, but it is the main thing that can restrain the enemy at the maximum possible distance, and far, well, let's say on distant positions of those to accept and ensure the advancement of our troops in the united states of america confirmed the permission of president joseph biden to start training ukrainian pilots on f-16 fighters, however, information about the training plan no sabryna sing, the pentagon's deputy spokeswoman, explained and told about it, as you know, denmark and the netherlands are leaders in training, president biden gave the green light to allow and support the training

of ukrainian pilots and move this case forward. training in the united states of america is still not being discussed . does mr. colonel know when ukraine will still receive in 16 and this will radically change the situation on the battlefield and allow the ukrainian army to still feel confident at the front, well, we our military minister of defense said the approximate dates are march next year we will receive planes and right away the question is first of all at 4:00 p.m. six and at 4:70 p.m.

and these are different f16s. perhaps they are not the same in terms of flight characteristics, but the equipment they are equipped with is quite different, and the main problem we have now is that we do not have airplanes that are bad in terms of their characteristics, and we have bad designations because, for example, take russian there are 13 that can take off in 150 km and do not give, and being out of reach of our ppu means, do not give to any of our aircraft that can see it at a maximum of 50-60 km there, just approximately somewhere on the field on the battlefield in order to support its troops as soon as we approach, he can calmly destroy ours, and this is the question that if we now receive such modern ones, and in 16 new ones , according to our data, they can see and cover ours, even let’s say support our offensive, this is

a rather important issue only in terms of number and in the quality of these aircraft that will be transferred in relation to the deadlines , i say again well, let's start from what the minister of defense said, it's march next year, and let's see how accurate these forecasts are, let's say there is something to start from, he has full information and on committee, i also heard that you don't have the feeling that the west is constantly restraining the ukrainian army and does not give enough opportunities for russia to be defeated on the battlefield. of course , i would like to have more weapons for ours.

i remember in new york, it seems that the world street journal says that ours seem to have passed the sign, which is american, what is western, how did we learn from them there, when our troops were preparing for, let's say, their tactics. well, we we must understand what western tactics are, it is not from a good life, we will not, and perhaps because it is not suitable , because we must understand that the tactics of our partners, it depends on the availability of resources , an american or british or german soldier will never attack if they see that all the equipment is not destroyed, what is there 10 000 ammunition did not destroy the front there with a width of 500 m that the front in depth there at a distance of five kilometers is completely not plowed by artillery at the same time they are supported by aircraft, helicopters fly and fire the depth cannot be overturned and

the road that leads to the enemy a is completely demined we can't afford it because we don't have how many projectiles that er allowed us to carry out this combat task, that's why we don't go to our, let's say , tactics that we had. with those forces and means, we are trying to complete the task, that's why when they say that we moved there because we didn't like something , yes, give us how many resources and we will move at least to the attack of zinbab. rocket weapons and it was safe for our formats. russia also has certain problems with weapons , mr. colonel, and sabrina sing, deputy spokeswoman for the pentagon, said that she does not rule out that north korea can supply

russia, including shells, we will hear that she said that north korea can supply russia with shells, we are extremely concerned. obviously, this decision by north korea to join russia and its unprovoked war against ukraine and any arms deal between the dprk and russia violates the un security council resolutions , so we continue to monitor it of course this causes deep concern but again, we are just going to continue to monitor it, the ukrainians will not monitor and if these shells come, well, the shells will fly on the heads of the ukrainians, is it enough that the americans just follow the constitution. well, we will just monitor and see what happens there. north korea will move the echelons of belarus. well, first of all, this shows what kind of allies russia still had there a year and a half ago, and everyone

wanted the chancellors of germany and france to come and talk there. to sit at putin's kilometer-long table and then show everyone that this is some kind of leader of north korea, i can afford it there and china can come to negotiate and how much cheaper they are now will be able to take away and to what extent they will be able to gain the prospects of the territory for themselves . and here the question is whether it is possible of course. maybe i think that it will be like that in the kherson direction. in hieroglyphs, yes, they were sent there for examination, and of course there will be no evidence that it is right there north korea gave because there you can always say, you know, there is a scheme of sometimes buying or selling uh, ammunition can be there through

three-fourths of the country, but such shells we were there, we remember that wagner fought there. we remember that north korea already supplied the units of the alarm system with ammunition, therefore , of course, answering the question. different problems. if we put our problems in this way, we have to use 5,000 per day, let's say it needs to be increased, then the russians got used to it from the beginning of the war, they used 60,000 people, then gradually decreased , the number decreased, and then they write on 14 on and for them already 10-15, that’s why they already have this problem, that’s why their problem is our problem, not everything is equally outnumbered by ammunition and they understand that it is necessary to get it somewhere, of course the quality of crimean ammunition will be different and that’s exactly what i wanted to show you to say that it's not just like that, he flew there

, he unequivocally welcomed shoigu, in order to agree on some weapons, on some cooperation for the future. it was a novel. on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms, for those who are currently watching us live on youtube , please like this video and vote in our poll. today we ask you about whether it is necessary to increase responsibility for corruption and bribery during the war. yes, no. your option, leave your option in the comments under this video , our next guest is a diplomat, the extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador of ukraine to the un in 2014-2020 volodymyr yerchenko p volodymyr i congratulate you and thank you for joining our broadcast

good evening to you, mr. volodymyrets, all week long they have been discussing the formula for peace from zelensky, or would it be illogical to promote the formula for the defeat of russia, because in principle the formula for peace from zelensky is the formula for the defeat of russia, because peace talks, as president zelensky says, can only be after the russians leave the territory of ukraine, and this will be putin's defeat. of course, this needs to be said, especially since we are on the eve of such an active political season , which actually begins at the beginning of september uh, when the un general assembly starts its work, then there will be at least uh , the g20 themselves and many other uh events at which the ukrainian issue will be discussed in one way or another, which, by the way, has already become

the uh problem or the number one issue in to the whole world , if literally a year ago it was possible to talk about the fact that there is syria, there are close ones, there are conflicts in africa already today. topics conflict in in ukraine, the war in ukraine is different. but nevertheless, for example, we understand that in this world we are very reassured by this and that is why uh right now our armed forces to start the real negotiations, the problem is to prepare for this, because nothing happens in a day or two, and in fact, this meeting of today's arabia, which took place a few days ago, so it was not us. it was one of the preparatory meetings, one of the preparatory stages, the first letters in ukraine. as far as i

i understand that the next meeting of this type of this format will take place somewhere on the outskirts of the g20 in india. well , i will say bowing in order to prepare for a more substantive discussion of the parameters of the world after we win victory over the whole then, mr. volodymyr, i i will formulate it in a slightly different way, now there are allies who do not allow russia to win this war but are our allies ready for the defeat of russia, that is, for the defeat eh i think they are almost ready perhaps not all and not all political forces in our allies before this ready, but at this time it is approaching. if you compare today's situation with what it was at the beginning of the war, i'm not talking about kyiv in three days, but even six months

after the invasion of russia, well, the vast majority of our allies in fact, they talked about how they would stand with ukraine until the end, but they did not see the possibility of defeating russia, that is, they did not talk about the victory of ukraine, but about the support of ukraine. today, in fact, everyone is already talking about victory. at what cost is another matter. this one the victory will still be. thank you, volodymyr, we have to finish our program, the air alarm has started, so i apologize for the short inclusion. i hope that in other programs we will definitely talk about this. i want to appeal to all citizens of ukraine, do not ignore the air alarm . the diplomat who was with us at the inclusion with our studio. well, let me remind you that we are still working on our youtube and facebook platforms, for those who are currently watching us on

youtube, please like this video take part in our vote we are asking you today whether criminal liability for bribery and corruption during the war should be strengthened yes no your option please leave it under this video in the comments on this we put a full stop i wish everyone good health take care and your relatives goodbye, watch, watch this week in the program judicial control with tatyana shustrova, why do unscrupulous judges retire with honor, absolutely does not correspond to illegal, no boat, no, we those the activities of the high council of justice and how the judge who released

the driver under the influence of drugs received lifetime benefits from his cage and the judicial reform in ukraine is ongoing, the key judicial bodies have been updated taking into account all the requirements of international partners and this does not prevent unscrupulous judges from not only avoiding punishment for corruption crimes and more and more to increase wealth but after dismissal to live at our expense with you, the current legislation of ukraine gives the opportunity to judges who are involved in criminal cases not to be disgracefully dismissed and to retire with honor retain guarantees of inviolability receive severance pay and lifelong severance pay we will tell you how this is still possible today and first of all the news the specialized anti-corruption prosecutor's office referred to the court the case against the judge of the koretsky district court of the rivne region yevhen kulyk in april of this year the judge was exposed for demanding a bribe of 1,100 dollars according to the investigation materials

, kulyk promised to close the administrative case against a citizen who drove a car while intoxicated, the judge's money received through the suspect's lawyer the national anti-corruption bureau of ukraine and the specialized anti-corruption prosecutor's office exposed the head of the state judicial administration , oleksiy salnikov, for inciting bribes to judges of the supreme court, according to the investigation , on march 5, the official received $7.5 thousand from a representative of a commercial enterprise , five of which were supposed to be 2.5 thousand dollars were handed over to the judge for rendering the decision , did you have oil seals for mediation services in nabu, they informed that after the detention

the head of the supreme court vsevolod knyazev, salnikov's behavior changed dramatically. and he began to avoid solving the issue, but he was not going to return the bribe received . the dnipro district court of kyiv announced the sentences of two former ukrainian judges from crimea who , after the beginning of the occupation of the peninsula by russia , went to cooperate with the occupiers and went to work illegally formed judicial bodies , the former judge of the alushta city court , antonina landratova, and the former judge of the court of appeal of the crimea, maryna rozhko, were found guilty of treason and sentenced to 12 years of imprisonment with confiscation of property, since both traitorous judges are in the temporarily occupied territory , the sentence was announced in absentia, they will serve the prison term from the moment of their detention by the ukrainian security forces. will proceed

to clean the judicial corps from collaborators and also from unworthy representatives of the system will consider piles of disciplinary complaints, they have accumulated more than 8,000, on the other hand, the vrp not only did not start with these obligations, but also does not plan to do so in the near future. according to the law, only the service of disciplinary inspectors can consider disciplinary complaints against judges and make appropriate decisions. it is still not formed at this time. the review of complaints could be entrusted to members of the higher for the sake of justice , however, the political will has not yet been found for this, so the number of complaints is increasing more and more, and not the virtuous servants of themis will continue to successfully avoid prosecution, and

instead of a shameful dismissal, they flee to honorable retirement with alimony and now we are talking about thousands of disciplinary complaints against some courts that are very popular, for example, in quotation marks, so that is, very famous for their bad deeds, which should be dismissed from the judicial system, well, with shame, with a legal assessment according to the recently higher the council of justice allowed the chairman of the sambir city and district court of the lviv region to retire with honor, hanna karnasevich, a judge known for systematically artificially delaying cases and thus exempted drunk drivers from punishment in 2021, when it was known about at least 27 such cases, the vrp even punished her for this with a reprimand and deprivation of salary supplements for, but this did not prevent the judge from continuing the established practice and making similar decisions according to the foundation of

the law also knows the facts about its release from responsibility of drivers who drove under the influence and handing them over as bail to the labor team, but it is quite possible that the documents of the labor team were forged . the judge of the sambir city district court. currently, a disciplinary case has been opened against karnasevich in the supreme council of justice with a complaint against the judge . in her complaint, the lawyer of the de jure foundation, marta bereza, explained that instead of considering one case in 15 days, karnasevich postponed the meeting five times . and in fact the hearing took place months later, as a result the driver was never brought to justice, but the presence of open proceedings against the judge did not become an obstacle for the high council of justice

, hanna karnasevich easily went to the honorary resignation with life imprisonment absolutely does not correspond to the logic or the activities of the supreme council of justice, because such judges will repeat themselves, it is necessary to purge them from the system and finally give a signal to the system that this cannot be done and prosecuted in the form of dismissal , especially for such significant offenses yury kovbasa, the judge of the vinnytsia city court, also resigned. he is known for his high-profile decision in the case of driving under the influence of drugs . opiates were found in the suspect's blood. he was arrested. stated that he was drunk from a poppy seed bun eaten during the day, the judge believed sausage and released the driver without punishment. he was not stopped and was not surprised by the fact that poppy seed buns are constantly eaten by children and sold in school canteens and

even in kindergartens. this decision caused great public indignation more than a dozen activists came to the judge's office and ate poppy seed buns and then went for a medical examination to look for opiates in the blood . he is something poppy seed buns at first somewhere they took it as a joke i have to do everything myself how much do you know if a judge stops her in court or she is in an alcoholic state under the influence of psychotropic drugs the reason for this will be found out by this state you understand me very correctly in in 2020, yuriy kovbasa extended the term of the case against the man for driving while intoxicated and then

simply closed it, so the judge released the driver from punishment and did not even deprive him of his driver's license, later the offender sat down drunk again behind the wheel and committed a fatal accident that resulted in the death of an 18-year-old girl in this case regarding yuriy kvasa in the supreme council of justice to open a proceeding to which she did not pay attention. this confirms and has consequences that the judge does not prosecute persons who were caught i drive to the point where people are literally killing other people, so yuriy kovbasa, instead of being punished for questionable decisions, received an honorable retirement, a one-time payment in the amount of three salaries and lifetime monthly payments which

make up from 70 to 90% of a judge's salary. what is a resignation? it is actually an honorary one. why? because it is not just a termination of a judge's powers, it is a lifelong stipend, first of all, which sometimes reaches uah 100,000 or more, depending on the judge's salary at the last place of work. the title of a judge, the opportunity to participate in the judicial rescue of self-government, i.e., the opportunity to influence the judicial system in principle. that is , it is the most honorable history . a bill was registered in the verkhovna rada, which proposes to ban the supreme council of justice to retire judges with high honorary lifetime payments. if there are unresolved disciplinary complaints against them, however, when the deputies will get to their consideration , it is difficult to say, meanwhile, you and

i still continue to pay the lifelong support of corrupt judges. tatyana shustrova if you want to report corrupt judges or illegal decisions, write to me on facebook or to this e-mail address . see you in exactly a week, all the best. congratulations, this is bbc ukraine in the studio, olga palamaryuk and today we are talking about how russia used war to force georgia to make peace and what lessons ukraine can learn from that armed conflict . now it is called the august or five-day war. 15 years ago , the russian-georgian war began, with more than two hundred civilian casualties, more than one and a half hundred military and policemen from the georgian side and almost 2,000 wounded, why then in 2008 did the western countries not see the threat that
