[000:00:00;00] that's right, the headquarters start in general, but you know we need a change - now, well, a year and a half of the war has passed. we live in the same information framework that was created in the first days of the full-scale invasion, and now the situation has changed somewhat, and our information policy is from the ministry of defense, in particular, it remains the same at the same level that was on february 25, 2022, i think that this is wrong and it is not working at the moment, it is just that we need and we need to change the policy. i think that regarding the situation, for example, at the front more information not from the ministry of defense, but from the general staff, while the ministry of defense should take over a number of issues, in particular, and take over a number of issues of the general staff, for example

, what concerns mobilization, because we still have well, sovkova, i’m sorry, the system is called the tcc, but in fact the same military commissars are still subordinate to the ground forces of ukraine, the commanders of their home ground forces. what should the ministry of defense as an administrative body do on the front line? for our army. he should take these issues upon himself, including well, as i said about policy information. it seems to me that here we need to give more opportunities to our general staff to inform about the real situation at the front or to representatives of certain operational commands there. ah, no. the ministry of defense , the ministry of defense, it can only provide information about , for example, the types of weapons that are supplied because it is their parish, about, for example, some important innovations regarding procurement, about

all this. so it can inform the ministry of defense because it is within their authorized functions, but regarding the situation on the front line here , well, let's give it, let's do it, maybe if you want, we can make a certain e-e automated military analysts , e the general staff, and let them inform about this situation here, your point of view is clear i would also like to talk about the events at the front , about the liberation by the armed forces of ukraine of klishchivka and andriyivka, south of bakhmut, for the maintenance of which the russian troops waged a persistent struggle, mainly without rotations and this could cause a serious degradation of the russian units that were being defended, since the advance of the armed forces of ukraine in the zaporizhzhia region affects the this is exactly what the analysts of the institutes for the study of war write. well, relatively speaking, what

is the mood of a russian soldier , it is most important to understand that bach well, unfortunately, this is just a destroyed city of scientists when there is a there they ask questions, but can we, for example, to it is very easy to buy bakhmut, but it is impossible to occupy bakhmut itself , because the city is destroyed. unfortunately, it is easy to wipe it off the face of the earth, and all the russian forces that are there are located in the southern and northern shabakhmut. south of bakhmut were the most capable russian units. it was their e-e 70 e second separate e-e brigade, it was e-e 31-83 airborne divisions which e-e and here i wouldn’t even believe so much the institute for the study of war as e- er our er our our third assault beards which directly took part there. and so, all three units

of the russian army that i just named, they not only lost their combat capability, they were actually destroyed, their senior officers were killed, their equipment is now being actively captured, and their personnel is what it is called there to the south , it is simply captured and this is an extraordinary victory because, well, we have no other choice for advancement now, except the physical destruction of the occupiers, manpower and their equipment. bahmut is engaged, let's say our counteroffensive under bahmut, he left, started already in the middle of may, and this is the result of this very difficult, tough, even sometimes brutal work, but so necessary for the armed forces of ukraine, and the result of their four-month campaign there is actually the loss of three of the most combat-capable army units

of the russian army i thank you for your time and for your analysis of the situation. andrii kramarov , a military expert, a reserve officer of the armed forces of ukraine, or as a guest. freedom in the morning is freedom in the morning. my name is kateryna nekrecha. in this stream we talk about the following topics: ukraine filed a lawsuit against poland, slovakia and hungary to the world trade organization due to the grain import ban that these countries introduced . maybe even the death of the head of chechnya , ramzan kadyrov, has been heard for several days in the russian media, opposition snakes with references to sources report that kadyrov is probably in a hospital in moscow, in the kremlin they say they don't have any information about kadyrov's illness, what is happening and how kadyrov's illness or death can affect russia's war against ukraine and

putin's regime. if you watch us on youtube , you can ask your questions to the speakers of our morning show just under this video and don't forget to like and subscribe to the radio freedom channel in new york. the 78th session of the un general assembly will start in new york, and the whole world's attention will be drawn to it, because the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelenskyi, has already arrived at the event together with with first lady olena zelenska, his release is pre-planned, a speech at the general assembly at the sustainable development goals summit and the un security council , a message appeared on zelenskyi's social networks that he visited ukrainian military personnel undergoing treatment in america, and the ukrainian president also has several bilateral meetings planned in washington, he is to hold talks with us president joe biden , the leaders of the houses and party of the congress , the military leadership there

, and a meeting with the president of poland is also to be held today voice of america correspondent iryna solomko is the anchor of the events in the usa, and she is ready to tell us the details of what is known, as of now, new york is starting to perform during the so-called high week . the president of brazil will be the first to speak. after him, the american president is expected to speak joe biden , in addition to the topic of war, of course, which will be very important within the framework of this event, it is expected that the president will talk a lot about the general challenges he is currently facing this is the world and climate change, this is also the problem with pandemics, this is also the situation with health care, and also, of course, the situation in the countries of the global cock, because during the conversation with various delegations, as well as journalists , the russian people very often heard that there are fears that, accordingly, the topic ukraine will dominate this event . and this is unfair, they say, because

different topics should be heard on this platform, so in response to these criticisms, it is already known that the president will speak, including about the situation in the countries of the global rooster. to talk about what has already been done by the united states in order to improve this situation and, accordingly, what is planned to be done in the next year, this year, and the next in order to improve it even more. about the situation in ukraine about aggression and also about what the world can do in order to finally help ukraine to stop the war and besides , a very important meeting of the un security council is expected on wednesday this year and albania in which the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi will also take part; moreover, practically all members of the security council are expected to be represented at this event, and the heads of delegations, except for president volodymyr zelenskyi, flew to new york and the first lady of ukraine olena zelenska is expected

to take part in the event dedicated to situations with ukrainian children and how they are victims of this conflict, and there will also be a separate event dedicated to how to hold russia accountable, in which will participate and prosecutor general is expected on september 20 after the meeting of the security council . the ukrainian delegation has decided to go to washington from new york. the voice of america for radio liberty will follow these events. which implies that with this ban , the european countries neighboring ukraine are discrediting the aid they provided to ukraine in the first months of the full-scale invasion, and the minister says that only russia will benefit from this situation incomplete solidarity i would say when it is suitable there is solidarity and when it is not there is no solidarity i am very sorry because the only

person who will benefit from this is vladimir putin, he is rubbing his hands on this matter, this should not be the goal of anyone here, the minister of the mentioned states demand that the participants be judged by the european commission and are going to listen to an explanation during today's meeting in brussels, i would like to remind you that the european commission did not extend the ban on the import of ukrainian agricultural products in the eu state neighboring ukraine, which ended on september 15, instead the governments poland, hungary and slovakia have introduced such a ban at the national level, extending the ban on trade in ukrainian grain for another month, and romania may also do so, the country's prime minister said if there are requests for it in the meantime. bulgarian farmers took their tractors to a protest after as the parliament of the country canceled the ban on the import of ukrainian agricultural products in order to be in solidarity with ukraine

. will affect the competitiveness of bulgarian farmers they think otherwise we cannot feed ourselves with products from third countries considering that we are one of the main grain producers here in the balkans i just don't know for me this is a disaster we are losing we are literally dying we will have to find a new job i will note that after that as in may of this year, restrictions were imposed on ukrainian grain. bulgaria, together with poland , hungary and slovakia, also banned the sale of agricultural products from ukraine on the domestic market. but, like others, it allowed transit, meanwhile, ukraine filed a lawsuit with the world trade organization against poland, hungary and slovakia due to their ban on the import of ukrainian agricultural products.

the ban is a violation by these states of their international obligations. at the same time, sredenko still hopes that there will be no litigation. it is fundamentally important for us to prove that individual member states cannot ban the import of ukrainian goods, so we file lawsuits against them at the same time we hope that these states will lift their restrictions and we will not have to clarify relations in the courts for a long time, we need solidarity with them and protection of the interests of farmers, the steps we have started and the pressure of the european commission and other member states will help to restore normal trade between ukraine and neighboring countries, as well as to show solidarity between us. ukrainian lawsuit e-e to the court of poland hungary and slovakia withdraw from the so-called grain platform in brussels and that warsaw did not accept the proposals voiced by kyiv to resolve

the situation, however, this statement of the polish media was refuted by the economic and truthful deputy minister of economy of ukraine, taras kachka. next , we will talk about this the situation about the demands of the parties with the next guest lukasz damsky , doctor of history and political analyst , deputy director of the juliusz miroshevsky dialogue center, joined our on the air thank you for this good morning good morning the ban on the import of ukrainian grain by european countries why such a decision in fact and these countries that banned in particular poland can discredit their great aid as the german minister said but are they really defending their markets i think that here the answer is obvious and the ukrainian viewers and listeners understand what the help and solidarity looked like from the side of germany, in particular, from

the first month of the war, what it looks like now and looked like from the side of poland, you can also see me here i can also refer to various economic data, which show that the import of ukrainian grain and ukrainian products in general to poland is several times higher than to germany. if i were to take this statement of the german minister as an oration , it is also a political tool to show ukraine that poland is not a particularly reliable ally. and why does germany do this because it also has certain interests of its own here, if you answer directly to this is your question . why does porusha do this? romania, well, this country, as well as the largest, received the largest part of ukrainian agricultural products, and this

really led to the big a-a-e-e big problems of them in the domestic market, you can talk to any polish farmer, and in poland there are more than a million, millions of farmers, usually, unlike ukraine, there are 10-15 hectares each. that is, these are people, as they will be opened very soon, and so from the prices, and we all say that, uh, imports are not limited in a situation when in ukraine has black soil black earth land. yes, when ukraine does not have it, it does not have to, uh , ukrainian uh, exporters don't have to comply with certain phytosanitary standards. the interest of all maps, as now, in general, they are in the stage of the election

campaign, but here, in principle, everyone says one thing that we cannot allow such an unlimited import of ukrainian grain. i want to clarify, that is, it is precisely about the import of it is not about banning its transportation through these countries. it is absolutely true. it did not block transit and does not want to block it. well , the polish politician we called is already making a decision. they understand that it is very important for ukraine, well, in order to have income to budget in order to have money for social payments and the army, and no one wants to block transit, the only thing that matters here is that these products do not go directly to poland. war canceled all restrictions until it turned out that er percent of this ukrainian production, which was supposed to go somewhere like africa to south america and er, almost 40% of all production

, it stopped with poland, hungary, slovakia, and now the european commission is also under the influence of germany tells us that this is a european matter, that everyone has, everyone must fulfill the powers of the european union , because this is the same as the matter of the powers of the european commission, but somehow they forget to say that it cannot be a female situation, what exactly these countries, which are only neighbors with ukraine, they are, well, not comparatively more, they suffer from such limited imports, and they are not from western europe, so there is absolutely no question here of banning transit, despite the fact that, for example, in june, the prime minister said the minister of ukraine blinked, but here it is about er here er the permission of the trans team of that is simply about banning the import to poland er of sunflower

, wheat, rapeseed and corn if transit is not prohibited then why in your opinion in ukraine import is fundamentally important do you have an explanation for the ukrainian vysokopadat-e high-ranking officials are afraid that later during the negotiations on membership in the european union, some countries may block this process by putting forward their national demands for quality, and that is why they think they are afraid of a precedent, first of all, and secondly, well , i i can understand and honestly, this is not just my view. yesterday i spoke with many experts from government circles and everyone understands that ukraine is violating two large agricultural companies. it is true that large agricultural markets have conflicting interests here, and we will have to somehow

harmonize it, somehow reconcile it and solve it on in that place, few people understand why there is such a thing from the side of, for example, the infectious minister taras the duck. i would say no. friendly to the rhetorical disorders, he has already managed to appeal about what about the intelligence of the battle, mmm, about the liberals, that uh, yesterday he even wrote an essay like and very much deceived polish politicians and public opinion that he cares about the interests of not only ukraine but also poland. so , in this dispute, it turns out that the ukrainian bridge is the best japanese national interest than the polish government you understand, this rhetoric has done a lot of harm in ukraine, and i am honestly afraid that, in particular, when the borscht campaign is going on in poland, these polish political forces can take advantage of it, as

they have been saying for a long time that the government, the polish government -he does not know how to defend their national interests in relations with ukraine and why this rhetoric here can be speculated, but in any case it is a harmful thing. so i will also note that taras duck, who is the trade representative of ukraine and the deputy minister economy, he actually said that poland was told here, finally, poland told the truth. his quote about ukrainian grain is not about this season, but about the terms of ukraine's accession to the eu, that is, the problem is more global. in your opinion, will the parties here be able to find a compromise and will it somehow affect friendly relations and support of poland to ukraine during the great war, i.e. poland will support ukraine in the war with russia, but this

is also an obvious thing to me at that point. the complex of exercises is also a matter of the fate of ukrainian emigrants or refugees from poland, it is an economic issue - it is a cultural exchange , it is solidarity, for example, helping poland to promote the ukrainian swiss in the eu, and all this, unfortunately, i think may be at risk if we do not we will be able to talk in a normal language about such and such commercial disputes and that is why i am very appealing to understand what language to use in commenting on those matters and not to use such and such languages ​​like how which is perceived in i thank you for getting involved and explaining the polish position on this issue, because that is why we must follow the course of events and how

the countries will manage to settle this situation. we talked about the ban by some countries of the european union on the import of ukrainian grain, then we talk about the situation around ramzan kadyrov, but in the kremlin they say that they do not have any information about the illness of the head of chechnya ramzan kadyrov and the cry of the president of russia dmitry piskov answered the journalist's question about the state of kadyrov's health and also added that putin and kadyrov did not meet in moscow the fact is that during the last three days the head of chechnya and with a high probability remains in the russian capital and at the beginning of september, kadyrov allegedly flew three times from grozny to moscow . this is reported by the russian publication vyorstka . the link to the source was stated by the editor-in-chief of the echo of moscow, oleksia venediktov, rumors about the deterioration of kadyrov's health and even his death appeared a few days ago

, and it was actively discussed in the russian press after the chechen oppositionists, a human rights defender, and a scumbag englubayev, wrote about kadyrov on september 17 died, but on the same day , a video appeared on kadyrov's telegram channel showing the head of chechnya walking down an alley in the rain, thereby allegedly refuting rumors about his death or illness . at the moment, we cannot determine where and when he was this record was made, we are writing rent, however, the same day in the russian telegram channel vk ogpu , which the opposition media associate with the power structures of russia, wrote that cars with chechen license plates began to arrive at the central clinical hospital, they were allegedly allowed to enter the territory without inspection, and later

most of those who arrived moved to the building where the intensive care unit is located confirm or deny this information at the moment we cannot but the secretary of the national security and defense council of ukraine oleksiy danylo danylo believes that the deterioration of health ramzan kadyrov's death could have happened due to poisoning that caused kidney complications. he stated this on the air of a national telethon . i would like to remind you that rumors that 46-year-old ramzan kadyrov is seriously ill periodically appear in the information space. he himself has already denied information about his worsening condition several times health, if the information about kadyrov's state of health is confirmed , it will be difficult for his successor to gain power , because in chechnya there is hidden, but dissatisfaction with the kadyrov regime , the russian spoke about this in a comment on radio svoboda political scientist, military expert, yuriy fedorov, he also noted that the change of power in chechnya can have a positive effect on the success of the armed forces in combat operations, since the attention of the top

leadership of russia will be focused on the north caucasus, so what is currently happening with kadyrov and why is he so important to putin, he suggests listening to more chronic problems well, judging by the appearance , this is some kind of chronic problem. and most likely , it is very serious, because all the available staff at the doctor are the best specialists in russia , high-class specialists there are such in russia, although there are not many of them, but they cannot cope with it, this means that the problem is very serious, but again, this is what they say and check the authenticity of the rumors. and it is very difficult for me that he is in moscow, in the central clinical hospital, it is known as the kremlin and his the situation is very difficult, this is actually what i know. i think that this is known to almost everyone. i think that you live , for example, to everyone. well, for russia , this is primarily for the situation for russian politics

, first of all for the situation in the north caucasus. kadyrov's death can have, well, his resignation for health reasons or sending him for treatment somewhere abroad . i don't know where he can go, well, somewhere. probably in the arab countries, this will mean that in the eastern part of the north caucasus near chechnya, a political vacuum is emerging. it is not clear who can replace him, who wants to, for sure quite a lot, the first is the people of kadyrov's complex. he has a son . he is too young to lead such a republic. there are people who have the power potential . a struggle for power will break out, but the decision will be made by vladimir putin, as i understand it, but he will appoint a successor, but whether the next one will be able to establish control over chechnya and personal control over the bureaucratic apparatus over the law enforcement agencies over the police and squads of these armed forces in a short time, this is the question i think

that it is for anyone whoever is the successor can be a difficult task that can lead to destabilization or not well, roughly speaking , simply because the struggle for power will go out into the streets and take already armed forms and can of course, in dagestan there is a small but part of the population of ethnic chechens in general can pull themselves , these are close because of the public, in fact, as i understand it in chechnya . as i understand chechnya, there is a serious hidden but nevertheless dissatisfaction with this kadyrov regime. khans , sultans, sole rulers have never existed in history. it was, so to speak, a territory populated by people or groups called clans , which maintained horizontal ties with each other, and the real influence belonged to the elder. such a structure is focused on one person, one dictator, one ruler, in general, it does not correspond to the national spirit of the chechens, accordingly, anyone who replaces kadyrov may face such opposition

. well, if i look at their whole version again , of course the version about the poisoning of kadyrov is considered but again , you know this is only a version, the final decision will be made by pathologists and anatomists who will be able to say that it was a disease caused by some natural causes of poisoning or something else, so far we can only guess, there are various assumptions, and someone says that it is poisoning. they are looking for the culprits, they are looking for poisoners , or is it in chechnya, and these are people from moscow? well, so far , it was very difficult to talk about it, but the version, yes, the version exists, i will remind you that in our today, we are following the general situation in ukraine in particular and there is more information about the consequences of the russian shelling of lviv oblast and lviv. the mayor of the city andriy sadovy announced that the body of a dead

man who worked in a warehouse was found under the rubble. i would like to remind you that at night, the russian army attacked the west of ukraine with mortars, in particular in lviv, and it is also officially reported on our air, andriy sadovy previously said that as a result of this attack, warehouses with food were destroyed, and also further, according to the mayor's order , food warehouses, clothes, humanitarian aid , this is where they aimed to beat they get pleasure when they kill peaceful people, they destroy hospitals, kindergartens , the mayor of lviv mentioned on our broadcast. events together with us here on the e-e radio svoboda channel on youtube my name is katya nekrcheche me and this our team we wish you a peaceful day until

we meet greetings news in the artery espresso works with you in the studio kateryna shirokopoyas another russian terror at night invaders launched across ukraine 30 shock rogues, 27 of them were destroyed by our defenders of the sky, the drones were moving from the south-eastern direction , they reported to the air force, the occupiers also intercepted one iskander-m ballistic missile , the enemy launched it from the territory
