[000:00:00;00] it is probably a countermeasure to these aerial threats, so if the enemy continues its strikes on the ismaili community, or will romania no longer be under threat, and then there should be some kind of reaction, because it would be the second, third, and the fourth time, we are fine. we already know, so the partners do not yet know that putin is not at all interested in fears and warnings, he is only interested in a powerful blow in response, either diplomatic or material or military , please, well, it is obvious that romania will not enter the war on our side because of such a person can help odesa more actively, this is a good story. yes, i think that. well, in the place of romania, such a good step would be to provide some additional help to ukraine or money or buy some air defense systems and place them somewhere in izmail so that they are placed there and thus romania will not go to war with russia directly, but to secure

both himself and us. then let's ask a few more questions about odesa. well, first of all, for me, there in odesa , they detained tax officials for bribing, how serious is this figure, because today it is also in lviv oblast they detained an official at the customs office who helped businessmen there to avoid certain moments that take money from them and add money to the state, so they did it so that the state still received less. well, in odesa, how serious is this again who was involved in this, that this is such a link in some kind of bigger one in a bigger chain , please you know. and recently there was news that odesa region took the third place in ukraine in terms of the number of arrested corrupt people, and to be honest , it's even kind of embarrassing for us. i think that odesa is not in reality , it is not in the third place. and the above is about this taxman. to be honest, it’s the first time i hear from you and i don’t see such a thing in the news, so i don’t know if he was detained

there, he worked at the customs office, well, then there’s one more thing i’d like to ask, odesa the port plant asks to start production . please, you know, i am very, very against this. this is an absolutely very dangerous idea, because in terms of the level of danger, this plant can be compared to a nuclear power plant. if it is an oil refinery, yes. as far as i understand, no, no , the odesa port plant yes, yes, because there is also an oil proof, which i know. and the oil refinery it is located in odesa , and the near-port one is located near the city of yuzhne all yes and it produces good evening there, it is such a final final link

ammonia conductor of eggs odesa that once worked and it well absolutely very dangerous the idea is to launch it now. i know that there is no ammonia there. i found this out on february 24. this is the first thing i did because, well, if i got a rocket there, even there , it could be compared to the chernobyl disaster. and there were tens or hundreds of thousands of dead. therefore, this cannot be done under any circumstances now. i understand that the director of the plant does not want to sit without work and he wants people to work. well, that is obvious, and there is some profit, but it is very dangerous. well, all the more so that we well, we understand perfectly well that the enemy dreams and is hatching plans to restore this soft pipeline to the west through ukraine, and i don't know how i won't just go to the dniester for this story . he has known for a long time what the enemy's desires were in exchange for, let's say, the restoration of the grain agreement there or

not yet any concessions on the part of ukraine, well, reasonable concessions. they wanted to be given the opportunity to make this ammonia wire and , well, then overload their ammonia , so it is clear that if, say, this enterprise were to work in ukraine, well, this was the first target , for sure, which putin would have chosen in order to show everyone that it is better to take mine and in general forget about some ammonia. well, we'll see when the president's reaction will be. i think that the president has advisers who will explain exactly as you explained in the examples . and the last ones. well, here the reni station is on the verge of stopping due to the number of wagons, we understand very well that this station is overloading the grain, eh, how critical can it be, and again, the enemy is also trying to target there, is there a problem only because, as they say, a traffic jam, a railway traffic jam is happening, well, reni izmail, they don’t have a menu, they are very close. well, that’s one problem, i would do it without this cluster by one

point or, uh, evaluate it, you see, the russians say, when they turned out, it seems they wrote that they received a fuel depot there that is used by the armed forces of ukraine. well, if you look at the map of ukraine, that is the distance and almost there, how did the divisions before this not hostilities, well, that is absolutely ridiculous. but the railway suffers from the logistics of this a question to our ministry of infrastructure to ukrzaliznytsia what to develop because it is one of the hot spots of our exports and we need to do everything to make it work because it is our economic security well, i would also like to ask about the rally that took place in odesa, there it was about that so that the money goes specifically to the war, funding is necessary, please tell me in more detail what it was, where it was gathered, what was demanded , and whether it was possible to achieve the set goal as

a result of this public meeting, that a very strange story, our mayor's office, deceiving all the deputies and locals, announced a tender for the repair of a court in odessa in one of the districts of odessa for uah 106 million. despite the fact that we know that the courts do not belong to the city councils and there is a judicial administration in which there is our budget and now it's obvious that we need to spend more money on some things related to the war, for example equipping schools and kindergartens with warehouses or directly helping the armed forces of ukraine, but either prepare for winter, buy generators, but we decided for some reason, to repair the court despite the fact that uah 20.12 million was laid in the budget and tenders were announced for 106 and we, and this is how the deputies raised protests at the city council session and tried to exclude this funding altogether, but through the deputies of

trukhanov's party - it did not work only 17 of these votes out of the required 33, and that's why the pickets began. volunteers who collect money for the military, who really help there for firewood. and here is such a peak this was on saturday, when there were calls for everyone to come. despite the fact that in odesa region, in fact, rallies are prohibited , and on the second of september, on saturday, we had a city day and about 56 hundred people came, a lot , this is the largest rally of growth in the last 1.5 years, well, the previous one i was there before the invasion, when the people of odessa were gathering to show russia that they were not waiting for her here, and no one came out until 10 , and

there were supposed to be celebrations for the day of the city raising the flag there. they delayed it, they waited until the people had dispersed, there was one woman, she is the mother of a fallen soldier, she inserted a photo of her son into the trukhanov tribune, and before the performance, the turks removed this photo from there by the employees of the city hall. well, then already on monday, these pickets continued in such a very micro-variant, there are no people anymore i did not call, but they come just as usual, and trukhanov , i think that, after all, we hope that the public will be able to achieve its goal, despite the separate desire of the authorities. thank you very much, peter, for your comments. thank you for joining petro obukhov a deputy of the odesa city council on the situation in odesa region sees shelling of infrastructure in the izmail district and in the izmir community . now let's talk in more detail about the situation at the front. by the way, anthony blinga, who arrived in kyiv today, positively assessed the pace of the counterattack against the armed forces of ukraine and said

that it was cool. already in touch with us serhii i congratulate you vasyl i congratulate our viewers and today in the military section we will really talk about the situation on the fronts about ammunition for the armed forces about how the unit works wings under the bachmouth and will the procurement system for the armed forces change after the change of the minister of defense of ukraine. i will start about this in a moment with the fact that over the past day, according to the general staff, more than 600 enemies were destroyed. and another 36 units of field artillery are good and high indicators. here it is the fact that the armed forces are now really carrying out active anti-smuggling measures and inflicting precise strikes on identified enemy targets and for this by the way, there was an interesting publication by the published economist e tam based on

satellite images based on analysis so-called thermal anomalies, they calculated that in recent weeks ukrainian artillery carried out four times more strikes on the enemy in certain areas of the front than the enemy did, we understand that this is positive , but we also understand that this requires guaranteed supplies of ammunition, the need for which is enormous today and precisely the european defense today the agency finally signed the first agreements with european manufacturers on the joint purchase of art-brepas for the needs of ukraine, it is about 155 mm caliber ammunition , the volumes of these first contracts are unknown, but in general, we know that they have to produce 1 million rounds of ammunition per year and we hope that they will be able to do this. because before, all

european companies produced only 300,000 rounds of ammunition per year, and now they have to at least triple these figures, in turn , the united states is now producing 29,000 per month of ammunition and plan to reach the volume of 90,000 per month only in 2025 , and this is exactly the same. units against the enemy and now we understand that this certain mushroom limitation on ammunition is compensated by the main use of cluster munitions, which we actively use both in defense and in the offensive, so when we talk about the offensive, the general staff reported that now the defense force continues to introduce an offensive operation in the direction of work no , well, prokopivka and they are operating near the willow, where

it is about penetrating already into the main line of defense of the enemy, and also into our troops , you are carrying out the enemy just one more time direction in the berdyansk direction, where the defense forces carried out several powerful attacks on russian troops in novodonetsk and novomayorsk, there are also confirmed changes at the level of the front in our favor near vasilivka - this is where the armed forces carried out offensive actions in the direction of pyatikhatok and kamiansk regarding defense, i will recall today's statement of general syrsky that in the east the armed forces must provide reliable defense and prevent the loss of positions in the kupyan and luhansk directions, here

the enemy has completed the preparation of his new of the assault detachments, transfers the detachments, continues the replacement of troops with parts of the 25th newly formed army, which is formed and is transferred to the territory of ukraine from the russian federation in order to once again try to take revenge after the recent offensive, what does the syrian general say, and fierce battles continue in the direction of bakhmut, where the enemy, despite the loss, is trying hold the positions and now we are joined at the ether school by the commander of the uav calculation with the name naftigall of the wing company of the third separate assault brigade , a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine from callsign kum i greet you on the espresso channel glory to ukraine glory to the heroes, but before starting our conversation, i would like to remind you that now the third assault brigade is working in the bakhmut direction, and the wing unit is developing and adjusting the fire of our artillery, and now the wing company is conducting steel wings together with the charity fund an urgent fee for the purchase

of three ukrainian -made stork 100 drones, you can support our soldiers by following the link on this qr-code that you now see on the screen, it will appear again during our interview and now returning to our guest, i would like to ask what it looks like in your eyes now as the commander of the e-e unit that carries out art-reconnaissance and adjustment of fire, what does the situation look like under bakhmut good day, once again, we are not advancing at such a pace as everyone would like but we are advancing, we are moving er daily bit by bit forward with sweat and blood er but progress and what missions are now lying on the mouth of the wings what are the main tasks performed by your unit

intelligence to intelligence counter-battery combat and the usual adjustment of the fire of our artillery and the destruction of the enemy. and what are we now? well, the most vivid examples of when you used your unmanned systems to destroy or adjust the fire of the enemy's artillery, maybe now we will even see a video from your mouth, because while preparing for the program, we watched e- e page of your unit, we can see what is there. well, there are many bright moments that testify to the perfection of the work of your unit. and please, tell us what impressed you the most. which are the coolest things were done by your reconnaissance complexes in tandem with the artillery. yes, we are in the bakhmut direction at the beginning of january 23, and almost every day we insult the artillery artillery, the personnel

of the tanks and other weapons of the enemy, we are most remembered for all this time is that in one day we destroyed four units of er four enemy tanks . we also corrected himerson on er such artillery installations of the enemy as tulip, this is a 24 self-propelled artillery installation that fires 240 caliber e also one of the most memorable moments was the airstrike on the communications college in the village of bakh. then we slightly added the health of oleksiy shorkov to the russian writer who was there at the time .

our artillery, after you identify the targets, how quickly it is carried out due to what, how it happens here, everything depends on how quickly we find the target . well, in literally 3-4 minutes, our artillery is ready to open fire after we confirm these. here, before talking to you, i talked about the fact that ukraine hopes to use active cluster munitions, or do your fellow cluster munitions use them in the fight against the enemy? yes, we use them recently, they arrived at us to the front and we use them when the enemy gathers where there are 20-30 people, they are very effective if the enemy is not in the open area neither in the dugouts nor in the trenches we

use them and it is a very effective weapon against the personnel now turn the wings is raising funds primarily for stork drones 100 i would like you to tell me why exactly these drones, what is their special feature, their advantage why do you really need them right now, eh, our unit is expanding because it has shown quite effective, effective and efficient results i would even say that starting from january 23 , the number of crews is increasing, and accordingly we need new equipment for new crews. of ukrainian companies a, on which a very high-quality digital optical module is installed, both night and day, they are very stable in the conditions of a number of which we are constantly, that is

, radio-electronic warfare in which we are constantly forced to work because the enemy is very developed in this direction and it interferes a lot for us to work, and also the fact that, in terms of price, quality, and availability, there is one on the market. probably, of the best indicators, well, on the ukrainian market, and certainly on the european and world arms markets, and i also wanted to add that the russians are in one area can use 10-15 drones. and we can use only two or three in this same area, because we have a big shortage of reconnaissance

uavs. the commander of the wing company of the third assault brigade , a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine with the call sign kum, was broadcast to us by the press. now, i repeat, the soldiers are collecting money for the purchase of new ukrainian reconnaissance drones, the stork, to support our the military is possible through the qr code that you can see on the screen or through the page of the steel wings fund, which also provides financing for this project, and further to another topic, we understand that the war will be long at the front, not only drones are needed , but also means of impression and body armor and on the one hand , and now we understand that these personnel changes that took place in the ministry today, when it was appointed, more precisely, the verkhovna rada gave its consent to the appointment of the new head of the defense

department we hope that this will speed up certain changes in approaches to defense procurement, because the situation is paradoxical. in fact, we are talking about the fact that certain things related to the procurement of food and uniforms and jackets are now in the center of public attention. it is surprising that now in to the ministry itself. to be honest, despite the fact that i have about 10 deputy ministers of defense , there is not a single deputy who is really responsible for procurement, because after the dismissal of shapovalov, october deputies i did not want to take this position, now there are functions performed by denis sha, in which he is responsible for procurement, although i repeat the profile deputy

in the u. in varshikov, and so far she has not died . i hope that such things will be adjusted. factory of personal protective equipment and the founder of the association of volunteers and enterprises of the defense sector of the lviv defense cluster, mr. yuriy, said. i welcome you on the espresso channel. good evening. i will start by saying that i have already been dismissed from the post of minister of defense, from the rostrum of the parliament, reporting on the results of the work, he said that 200,000 bulletproof vests, which are currently in warehouses, were purchased, this may be true , but i know that there is still a need for bulletproof vests , it is essential, the general staff forms the needs for this direction of individual of defense, and the kingdom of defense announces tenders for every company that manufactures body armor with which i spoke, they say that

each such tender is actually a force majeure, and the question arises: why is this the situation when every contract for the purchase of body armor, especially recently, really causes such a stressful situation for the manufacturers of the body armor themselves. look, first of all, this is a situation not only with body armor. and it can be said that this is a standard situation in principle for almost the entire nomenclature of supplies and material support, and not only material support of the army. i'll explain how it works, let's just introduce such a collective labor and collective market, that is, the general staff , the ministry of defense, collective zaluzhnyi eh decided that they need such a number of bulletproof vests for the first conditionally in september and passed this information

to the collective zaluzhush oh different who . the ministry of defense then waits for the parliament to provide funding and announce when the tender will be announced by the date requested by mr. zaluzhny, the asset can remain alone for two days, that is, the situation is that, unfortunately, the officers do not want to they can and maybe they are right that they do not take personal responsibility for the postponement of the deadlines, that is, if the recruiter said that on september 1 there should be body armor, and the purchase of the announcement is there at the end of august, then no one will dare to take even one person to postpone the final delivery date of the company, at the same time, they know that

some kind of purchase is planned, they contract for materials , they free up some production premises for themselves. tender, they understand that they won't have time to deliver, but they also understand that if they don't take the tender, they can simply go bankrupt , that is, companies deliberately go for the fact that they violate the terms of delivery. i cannot say what it is for each contract, but i can say that we will say it like this in ukraine, these are the realities of today about what is due to the fact that there are such problems with planning and especially with the allocation of financing for these purchases, that is why the company deliberately goes to

violation of the terms of contracts because it is impossible to predict that they will produce 10,000 in two days, and everyone understands this , but everyone also understands that the contract will be broken. new requirements for bulletproof vests, they have been in effect for some time and that they are even higher than in the countries of the alliance , is it true, if so, what are the reasons for such requirements, or can they be met by our capacities, our enterprises? well, here now there is such a game, let's say, the standards, uh, there are post-soviet standards that are currently used in the ukrainian army, this uh, refers to the barrier behind the obstacle - the deformation of the plate of soft ballistic packages , that is, when the bullet passed through, it survived the color, but uh, the armor package itself was dented and

can break ribs or something in ukraine this standard provides for a maximum injury of 25 mm in nato countries 44 mm in fact this is a huge difference because here the question is more about field medicine if the countries of the alliance do not have such soldiers as er, which we have now in ukraine. we must understand that such fast medicine as ukraine is in the countries of the field alliance. we can only dream about it at the moment, therefore according to the standards that er has now implemented for the ukrainian bulletproof vest, er, obstacles to deformation must be significantly less than in nato countries because we do not have the opportunity to rehabilitate fighters so quickly

all the absolute requirements for temperature and wetting and so on are also provided for, all the tests used in western countries, i.e. ukrainian such a bulletproof vest, he took all the best from both standards and from the ukrainian and nato standards of the nato countries eh and it must be understood that industrial ones are giants in europe and in the world, they are currently not ready to meet the individual requirements of ukraine , they have serial production for the countries to which they supply, and they are not going to improve. well, as far as we can see, they are not are going to improve their products to ukrainian standards now, but ukrainian companies, as far as i know, have already received three companies that were still able to improve their production and improve their products, and three companies have already received permits, let's say they passed all the tests of the ministry of defense to to be suppliers

for the needs of the ministry of defense p yuriy and as it should by the way, it affected the cost of manufacturing bulletproof vests according to new standards according to new requirements because we are used there 10,000 for a bulletproof vest in hryvnias - it is quite it is sufficient that, in fact, taking into account these new requirements for the quality of a bulletproof vest, first of all, it is necessary to understand that a bulletproof vest is very, very different from each other , if it is an ordinary plate carrier, it is a cover and two steel plates of the fourth class - this is one price , another price - this is an armored vest that the ukrainian army needs right now, because we do not have to forget that we do not have a war of bullets , we have a war of fragments, that is, for an armored vest , the most important thing is to have a large area of ​​high-quality anti-wire protection, this is the most expensive part

body armor, also according to ukrainian requirements, is currently purchased when pressed only with ceramic plates of the sixth class of protection, that is, this product, in principle, cannot cost 10,000, 20,000 e-e or even 30,000 uah, it is very high-tech, and such with a large area and, well, the maximum technology that are currently available they should all be in the world. now they are implemented specifically in ukrainian body armor. these are products that protect the life of a fighter. they protect a very large area. it is not only the chest - it is the back, it is the side, it is also the shoulders, it is the unloading belt, it is the hips, that is, and the neck is protected by a large area, er, there is a very large area of ​​protection in these bulletproof vests, and this cannot but affect its evacuation . unfortunately, time is running out quickly, thank you very much for your professional comments, i hope that we will return to this topic regarding the production of bulletproof vests and the volume and regarding the quality of these
