[000:00:00;00] we are completely left to ourselves, so i don't think that they will do something like that to me. do they have any resources in the war? so, if at all to solve this second. well, by the way, here we come to the question that has been very actively discussed recently, primarily in the west for a week now, the mass media has been discussing how there is allegedly a meeting with british and american generals, and what kind of claims there are to the fact that the forces should be concentrated in some one area, and there should be some attempt to counterattack in bakhmut area, focus on something there, stop something there, how do you generally feel about all these conversations, and in general about these opportunities for our e, for our defense forces to focus on one area in this situation, the first day, but

they do not accept the advice of our commander-in-chief from e-e, the myth of with all due respect to the latter, simply because ukraine is currently fighting in a situation in which they have no experience . well, we have quite unified conditions, so it turned out that way, because our property has a long series of specific characteristics that distinguish it from the fact that they once had , and god, i don't remember any of the four-star generals recently published a column in one of the american media where the guys said why do you remember hearing about the ukrainians if our last military experience of this kind is 1943, it's true uh, and in this situation, any advice, uh, how to fight well, where is it better to keep reserves and where can you contact them, as far as i’m concerned, they just love and she likes to talk there, everyone likes to talk, but they’re just illogical, let’s say right away

, you’ll be the only one to say that ukrainian is modern the armed forces of ukraine are not even similar to the nato army, neither logistically nor organizationally, but tactically, they are absolutely their own prices, and in this particular case, it is not a comparative minus, well, it’s just the way they are, so it seems to me that in the end the decision will still be up to the ukrainian teams and let's see how much who will conduct and how real such discussions are in general, especially among the military because, well, one thing is written by snakes, and another thing, is there really such a problem in our communication of our general staff with, well, our allies there. well, it seems to me that there are no big problems . everyone understands everything. so the families understand their own and difficult situations . in fact, it turned out now that they all understand how well we

are holding on. it is also a difficult situation . if you want to demand from the ukrainian army as from it is necessary for the ukrainian army to be an armed structure, i am the first, in fact , if the ukrainian army does not have, for example , an effective air force because it has fighter jets, well, let's not talk about how the ukrainian army has, for example launch an offensive in conditions of air dominance of the enemy, not even parity , so it seems to me that all of them understand in principle and this is a fairly obvious thing. well, well, look, and then such a situation is, well, again, this is one of the claims that are put forward, i am trying also, do you know them somehow? describe one of the claims is that the ukrainian army does not use these nato tactics, and somehow there

is no consistency between the units of incorrect application and so on. well, we can say about the activities on the battlefield to what extent they have some kind of ground under them, how far we can listen to some such advice, and in this regard , it seems to me that yes, well, there are such situations . they are, as it were, to be expected in a conflict of such scale and intensity. again, the question is whether it would be possible to improve it, but it is a question like whether ukraine could, i don't know, build an economy like in poland even in in the 90s, in theory, it was possible to practically do this, it was necessary to have other institutions, and already in the middle of the 20th century , in the same way

, there is a lot here. oh, grow from another biography. let's say that, well, there is one more thing that recently, for example, well, at least, when it comes to the tokmak direction about there , well, the southern let's say that in general, the southern front , the russians are very actively pointing out that there ukrainian activity increased artillery, the activity of aviation has increased, and on the other hand, this also causes conversations about the fact that these are all, uh, that there are not enough ukrainians, the means of criticism that arise there , as if they do not already have such a critical sound. and that, in principle, everything is already enough and there is some kind of parity is this parity really, at least in this direction? is it already there, or can we still say that we should have something more there? for successful promotion

, of course, they take it to say, but for me it was very strange, wonderful. hmm. where are we from? what happened at the end of all of them, that all the russians are fighters , for example, that they suddenly became approximately equal in our country, even at least in the conditions of the budget region. i know, but it sounds expected, so if you were to estimate that now would be the most important for further such ironing, that is, what possible help is possible , well, some actions, uh, would be the most useful for us, so that the promotion what is now continued well, uh, i didn’t reduce my pace at least and the check on me is the main thing now well, if you get international help , you need everything there too and namely you, even more

ammunition for high-precision weapons and, again, fighter jets but if we talk about what is needed in general not only in terms of aid , we really need to increase it and not even apply it, because there are a number of cool european projects in the production of drones in ukraine , but since it still does not turn out to be normal on a national scale, we are taking a risk lag behind the russian federation, well, in the next stages. let's say this lag can cost us a lot of resources in life and objects, so it is not necessary to scale it as much as possible, because now well, in fact, in russia, it is not a large-scale factory production yet although they have the ability to do this, hmm, to a certain extent, all this continues to be a manual assembly in small batches. how is it possible to do this on the territory of ukraine here? well, you

know, the question is like this. let's put it this way. my colleagues say that it is possible. my colleagues say what the question: is there more funding now than the provision of premises than in the organization of the technological process or lack of some resources? they say that maybe i am not a specialist . yevlev is a lyceum, a soldier of the armed forces of ukraine with the call sign sheikh, he joined us from the horliv direction, this is the district. i also congratulate bakhmut, mr. yevgeny. i wish you health, the studio. glory to ukraine , glory to the heroes. and in your direction, too it's a joke, the russians keep trying to attack, but there are gains in the south of bakhmut, eh. what can you say about this situation

, how does it look on the spot? look, i will inform you specifically about the gorlov direction, eh , by talking to my brothers on the phone. yes , there are there are gains every day, but they are not as global as we would like to see, as we once saw in kharkiv oblast and kherson oblast, the enemy dug in very seriously and prepared, hearing from all mass media about our counteroffensive in our direction, the enemy is introducing attempts to occupy some of our positions there, but for six months, my unit has not lost a single position, and all their attempts there were either destroyed equipment or put out of service, firstly, secondly, we have the enemy eh 350- 400 or more meters away from each other and we keep him very well at a distance . our arsenal of weapons is increasing a little, which is right

i have been using it for the last time - it has been about 1.5 weeks, and for two weeks we have been working on the positions of the enemy who are in our line of sight with very good results. there are also 200 almost every day. well, it is nice listen and tell me, there were also reports that, to the north of bakhmut, the russians transferred some additional units and reinforced them with attempts to attack, do you feel it? is it somewhere a little bit different from you? very true to the sweep to comment because the information is there because the mass media is there. maybe there are 2-3 people there with whom i communicate on messengers. so we are a little more reliable. well, if it is logical from a tactical point of view, it is logical because our direction is not very promising for them because we have a lot of geographical features here, so at least we have been standing in these positions for six months, we studied the enemy

perfectly and where they did not try to turn around it has its own mortar calculations or art. we practice very well with drones in beer, we fly in, destroy their equipment and so on , that is, that direction is more promising for the enemy for the development of an attack than ours, that is, i understand that they did not send anything new to you, that is, who is there with you you know, you can't say that nothing happened, because just yesterday i spoke with your colleague and the situation is as follows. you understand , for two sundays, they are fighting some sort of chaotic, low-quality battle, they are damaging , mortars are dug into the fields, do they fly? it is not clear where there are no such high-quality military operations, but for two or three days we do not see any signs of rotation, but for two or three days, some crazy fishes turn on, which make even ours fly away, through which we carry out reconnaissance and mortars fly as accurately as possible, and so on. so on, that is, i miss the fact that it is possible that some special forces go there for a while to hold back a little, so i think that my personal opinion is that they have a situation where they have to put out

fires a little, because in six months we will be as high-quality and strong as possible in our lines of defense and the enemy, that which is in the zone of our information, we destroy, that's why i tell them , i think that they need to put out fires when you are very strong . what kind of units are they local or are they still there? well, all these and so on, first of all, i'm not sure that i'm allowed to call the units that are opposite us . i think it won't be very correct in the studio , but i want to tell you that what i can i can tell you that these are definitely not local units occupied territories, and then such a general question can be asked of you, and how do you feel about all these conversations that have been going on for weeks and weeks about the fact that the bakhmut direction should be on the defensive and not carry out offensive actions? how do you think this is an excuse in general, there would be a story

, listen. i can disagree a lot there for those people who are there today, but i want to tell you what i am, er, 200%. with the president's thesis if we can liberate a certain territory in more time but with less, we will lose our servicemen, then we have to wait and, er, liberate this territory for a longer period of time, but with less losses , because you understand, they help us. thank you very much to the entire west, to every country that gave at least one bulletproof vest to our state, for this, all the soldiers are infinitely grateful, but to us they will give everything except people, and our people, i think you understand it, uh, it does not have such a position that our people are endless, this is the first position, and the second position is those who come on rotation for replenishment. now you understand their quality all those who wanted and could fight, they left

in the first decade , in the first half of the war, now these are people with minimal motivation, uh, whom the military commissars are conducting against their own will. there is an opportunity to free the land but it will take time, so let it be a little bit, not so soon, but with less losses for our army . and do you see them digging in during this time ? please tell me how many years i was walking in the information space . i apologize . i can hear the communication. victory. how many people were walking in the information space about the news about preparing for the counteroffensive in six months. everything they could dig in six months . for some weeks, the fact that we get somewhere pauses nothing gives us something to tighten up, i say uh, they are also

not very good with art outfits, they are also not very good with technology, what are they really good at? with a human resource they take away, they are ready to bombard every square meter of our land with pipes, what they showed in bakhmut, they are showing now in the kupyan direction and so on. that's why they are there for a week or two for some sort of drag. something is my personal opinion that they will not give anything globally, clearly, thank you, thank you. it was evgeny and eva from the horliv region, thank you very much for joining our broadcast, viktor , well, you see, it is interesting, and the opinion is enough, and in principle, if we look at the general now, well, let's try to predict maybe some the course of uh and the development of events where we can well at least the next week or weeks you see the most such active actions what do you think well first of all if it is

meant directly on the line in which i think that there will not be any big surprises that the actual duel will continue in the zaporizhzhia direction, well, it was appreciated in the direction of the so-called and how much more. and if we take into account all that is happening at the airfields of the russian federation, well, here i can’t even just guess, i’m sure that it will continue, but i don’t know in which one, i don’t know on what next device it will explode next time, but it will be interesting in the event that i left uh, some, well, on the same kupyan, on the same, uh, bakhmut direction from russia, first of all , do you think there is something there, well, just some kind, well, i don't

know how much additional resources the russians can have in this instead, they will now simply drop everything they have and deploy reserves in the zaporizhia direction a-a will there be enough of them and let's see if we distance ourselves from direct clashes on the battlefield and look at the situation in general er-er will there be an increase in missile strikes or will there be an increase from our side of some such long-range strikes or will this situation be now, well, this is how it is. well, it’s just as well, and most likely, it seems to me that from our side it will be, let’s say, flashes, well, as we started today, it will flash, and it will flash , or it will be regular, but with flashes from their side, it will be the same as it was, because it has not changed for some time and it has not changed exclusively because they

actually now use only the renewable part of their own resource , mostly because they somehow do not grow and cannot, most likely i do not will grow most likely to be about the same in our country and we will have a little bit if it is not working well now, especially if we are talking about those regions and regions that are working well with western aid, so here for now it is somewhere in the same regime as it was in the past weeks somewhere uhu well, but i also see such a thing that the russians, after all, are very active now, but every strike is still an attempt by them to change the way of the children, the impression is that they are just now er, well, you know, they are trying to adjust their strikes to, after all, well let's say winter strikes, yes. if you say so, i see more of a preparation, in fact , what they are doing is that they are now trying different

possibilities with the arsenal they have in order to prepare for something. to the infrastructure sko eh well to the blows what about the infrastructure that for some time italy completely sofia is effective to inflict in winter and of course winter is close but not so close to us now it is warm so far and there are still a few places it will be warm therefore it is better to let them solve the problems as they are the arrival of the problem, eh, you know right away the possibilities of making these strikes, which is what i see now and am trying to do.

the most promising direction is to reduce the impact on our infrastructure, so objectively speaking, one way or another, it is not going. so tell us, we are always ready to join in. thank you, it was viktor tregubov, a major of the armed forces of ukraine, er, our colleague er, and er, actually , our meetings are continuing, i said about them, we are now collecting er, for er, a car for paramedics, see under our there are all the requisites well, actually, our broadcast continues, so stay with us on the espresso tv channel, we will meet there are discounts on exick 20% in pharmacies podorozhnyk bam

and oschad is a scary place and such places have appeared again in ukraine, we see them in the liberated cities of the torture chamber, we know about their existence in the occupied territories russian peace if he had rolled back to lviv, it is very possible that this place would work again as a prison, as a place of destruction, not according to who knows where i would be

, where you would be, but now it is a museum at the cost of lives of our soldiers at the price of destruction the price that is paid all of ukraine is a museum and let it remain a museum forever so that ukrainians don't think about so that they don't talk about the first place anyway war war and our victory is only on espresso from monday to monday completely different spheres of human activity sports health i am the policy of the return of crimea, military analytics, nine presenters , journalists, experts, opinion leaders in real time about the most current events through the prism of war in author's projects on espresso , every week the saturday political club helps to understand processes taking place in ukraine and the world, vitaly portnikov, host of espresso and invitations, experts based on facts give their assessment and forecast of the development of events, you want

predicts that the country will have 1.5 million tons of this product in total. well , we will talk more about the economy, and in particular about salaries in various sectors of the economy, with yevhen angel, a senior researcher institute of economic research if mr. yevgeny is already with us, let's say hello, mr. yevgeny. i wish you a good day, mr. andrii. yes, i 'm already with you. it's great. thank you for joining me. and for waking up so early. let's talk about your salary survey that came out recently was published, what kind of research is it, who did you interview, what methodology , yes, thank you, mr. andrii, first of all, thank you for the invitation to the studio , and our salary survey is a component of our larger survey , and this is a monthly survey in the spring , the company, in a certain sense, is a truly new study that our team started almost

immediately after the start of a full-scale war, and previously, using a similar methodology, we conducted a quarterly survey of an enterprise that still was started at the end of the 90s and this is a truly unique study with a very long series of data from a formed panel of the enterprise, which allowed us to monitor all economic changes in the country, all crisis situations over the past two decades, but the war is extremely new challenges for the country, for the economy, and in particular for the collection information, in particular, statistical information that is needed for decision-making , and accordingly, in may 2020 , a monthly survey was started for the entire year, which has a similar methodology to the quarterly survey, but it also contains the so-called special part and actually, within the framework of this special part of the survey, we traditionally

include a certain new block of questions every month that should reflect changes in various e-e spheres of the country's economic life . in july of this year, we included a question about raising wages , because this is an issue. there are enough of them . society is always concerned. it is always interesting to talk. i agree with us about the main study. i spoke with your colleague oksana kozak last week, and there was also interesting information regarding the labor market, in particular, she talked about the growing lack of qualified labor on the labor market and, in general, the problem with the lack of labor, entrepreneurs are already putting it in the top -5 problems, it seems that it was in fourth place, now it is even in third place, eh, after the increase in prices, problems with

logistics, ah, well, they fall into the list of problems , where there are also security problems. it is not a major obstacle today. but the labor market is really a problem . and if we talk about the lack of qualified labor force, ms. oksana mentioned such reasons as, well, in general, the mobilization is clear, and it is the fact that there are many qualified employees did you go abroad? who has this official permit? or just? the growth of economic activity after part of the land was freed

? where we are talking about salaries. do you see an improvement in the deterioration of the situation as a whole? do salaries increase during the war? yes, in general, salaries do increase. in principle, this is positive information. on the other hand, unfortunately, the ability to increase wages is only in a small part of the business, and this is reflected accordingly in the results of our survey ah, in our research we asked a fairly simple question whether companies are increasing or have increased salaries since the beginning of 2023, and as a result, well, only a third of companies said that they increased 34% surveyed and at the same time, more than half of the enterprises left their salaries unchanged , that is 59% of the surveyed, and at the same time there are also , of course, enterprises that were forced to reduce wages by various methods, and
