[000:00:00;00] order a reliable and convenient tool for only uah 1,499, a powerful strong saw, what you need to call. greetings, dear viewers of the espresso tv channel , the studio program , the event. today's guests, daniel fried and andriy pionkovskyi , daniel fried , one of the creators of the american sanctions system, ex-coordinator of the state of the department for sanctions policy greetings dear mr. frit in the studio of the espresso tv channel thank you very much extremely important meetings were currently taking place in the united states, we understand that there were several

cases which at the same time we all tried to solve, in particular, it is about an extremely important message from president zelensky , it is about meetings between our by the ukrainian political establishment and the american and , accordingly, key stories - this is a serious long-term assistance to ukraine, but unfortunately we did not receive a signal about the allocation long-range missile systems etekams, there are two reasons why president zelenskyi's visit to washington and new york to the un general assembly is so important . first, president zelenskyi wants to strengthen american support for ukraine and its struggle for its use. zelenskyi is doing the right thing, he must convince the americans and the right and leftists and democrats and republicans that what

they are doing for ukraine is a just cause and that ukraine can succeed , the second message is that he insists on increasing the supply of arms to the biden administration, there are internal debates about the attacks that you mentioned. i hope that soon this issue will be resolved in favor of ukraine, therefore, zelensky's actions are aimed at ukraine being able to push back the russians and return its territories . control what is called large-scale economic assistance from the united states . so we heard about certain signals from the state department and not only there on the one hand, in particular, we are talking about the fight against ukrainian corruption, we would really like to not mix certain concepts, but

in any case, we understand that there is an in-depth cooperation and penny pritzker appeared, what will be the strategy of interaction. i believe that the appointment of a senior, experienced american politician, penny pritzker, is very good. she is not a middle-ranking bureaucrat. she represents a high -ranking political power that will be able to do things that i would not be able to do if i were in this position, and all because of her political status, so that's great you you raise the issue of corruption, so ukraine must fight for its existence and it needs an internal transformation to become part of the european family. ukraine will succeed in both aspects, but it will not be easy in ukraine. it will be difficult, but that does not mean that it is impossible. ukraine knows which way to come. can adopt the experience of its

western neighbor poland, which began its successful transformation in 1989. and now it is a member of the european union, nato, and a much more prosperous society. therefore, after the war, ukraine will need not only physical reconstruction, but also systemic transformation, and i think that penny plitker can support ukraine in both of these tasks , the main thing, mr. ambassadors, is the grain agreement and a very serious mutual political, not only economic misunderstanding between ukraine and poland , we understand that ukraine should sell its grain, this is a strategic story for us on the other hand, we understand that poland would like to somehow protect its own market and there are a lot of different speculations

and a lot of different emotions, we understand that these emotions can take us very, very far. i see a huge, colossal danger in this, and at the same time when we are talking about the so-called grain agreement, i would like to ask you why the european commission's position is so sluggish and unconvincing and ineffective. so we understand that the european commission could attract of their finances and purchase ukrainian grain. yes, we understand if it is about helping the starving countries of africa, asia, and so on, it is a pity that this is indeed the case in the last two or three days, the rhetoric between poland and ukraine was quite sharp that the kremlin could not but like it and the polish and ukrainian governments should move away from this and understand that they are allies and that what is happening now is nothing more than a family quarrel, the emotional tension can be high but

we all know very well that it is not worth taking out the garbage from the house it is very important, as far as i know, poland allows ukrainian grain to transit through poland to africa and the middle east, that is, it did not block all ukrainian grain, you can learn about this from some comments in the media, but poland is worried the sale of ukrainian grain at low prices, because grain prices fell due to the large russian harvest and russians flooding the market. there is a way out of this situation, and you mentioned it. the european commission could probably become a mediator in reaching a certain understanding that would secure polish farmers and the polish market by providing ukraine access to world markets by transit through poland, such

a solution would be optimal cannot provide an expert opinion on the details but it seems to me that there would be a way forward today mav an opportunity to communicate with the officials of the usa and poland and they all want to move forward, so it is about how friends of ukraine can help it to solve this issue as soon as possible. i fear that the ukrainian-polish misunderstanding may rise to an additional unpleasant emotional level . in general, there are some chances to establish this cooperation and return at least to the state that existed before the grain misunderstanding , as the war continues and the ukrainian-polish understanding and the ukrainian-polish union is actually a nightmare for the kremlin since

1920. this is how poland and ukraine have a common strategic interest in protecting the eastern flank of europe from russian aggression. the poles know very well that in the 17th century everything would have been different if they had supported the ukrainians and zaporizhzhya sich in particular, that is, russia always takes advantage when poland and ukraine quarrel, the poles know how much their country has done for ukraine for humanitarian and strategic reasons, as well as the fact that friendship with ukraine is in their interests and it really is. it is in our common interests when the kremlin wants to see poland and ukraine in a state of enmity friends of poland and ukraine like me want to see polish-ukrainian relations at a high level for the fulfillment of the hopes of leaders from both sides who understand that together they can be safer than

alone last week in a conversation with me matthew bryce a former adviser to the secretary of state, a mutual acquaintance of yours, said that the grain agreement, in particular, russia's attempts and the attempt to distort it in its favor also indirectly indicates another process under the guise of this russian versions they would like to intensify the supply of russian gas through turkey and bulgaria using the so-called turkish stream and then involve serbia and hungary, according to bryza , the european commission is currently preparing to investigate this hidden existing case, a wise and experienced person we have known each other for 30 years years and i think that his advice is good. he is right. the task

before all of us is to help ukrainian exports to enter world markets in the conditions of the russian war and aggression, such salt is achievable if transit through poland and romania is provided, and some transported will go through the black sea. recently, there were such shipments, however, they will also require pressure on russia. all this is possible, and let's not forget that the ukrainian counteroffensive is still ongoing. it is quite possible that ukraine will win back enough territory in order to logistically cut off crimea and change the strategic course of the war for wheeled equipment behind the scenes of the big politics that president zelenskyi mentioned during his speech at the un general assembly the president of ukraine said that out loud that there are certain, so to speak, manifestations

of what is called behind-the-scenes politics when some forces would like to solve the issue of russian aggression at our expense. ecumenical president zelensky is right and his point of view is that security cannot be divided, we are dealing with aggression against ukraine , which it will not end just like that, this is a lesson we learned in the 20th century and should not forget, security for ukraine is security for all of us under putin , russia has returned to the role of an aggressor country we we must be realistic that before this, russia is not our friend, russia is an aggressor who started wars to achieve its imperial goals . this is not only a matter for ukraine and nato, it is a matter for the whole world. ukraine's support in europe and in

the united states and among other countries is quite strong, and i it is impressive that president zelenskyy addressed the world from the podium of the general assembly of the un, he is not the first leader to make such statements, but it is obvious that the truth is on his side, we understand that putin is counting on certain supporters of his version, for example the end of the war and putin hopes that part of the western summers will put pressure on the ukrainian political establishment on the ukrainian government and will try either to prolong the conflict as long as possible or to freeze it, and the question is how determined will the american political elites and the european political elites be in what is called helping ukraine as soon as possible to win putin is clearly counting on a protracted war to exhaust american and

european support for ukraine perhaps he is also counting on the elections in the united states in the united states next year, the fact that his supporters came to power, for example, trump's soul gravitates to putin rather than to the cause of freedom, this is exactly what putin is counting on, so the correct policy is to help ukraine now as much as we can so that it can push the russians away and change the strategic course war and in the end , as they say put the russians on the shoulders , chinese diplomacy shows another phase of increased activity but what will be the position of china now? will china be playing in support of russian aggression against ukraine or on the contrary, beijing will try to restrain putin and will convince him in one way or another to end the aggression

. i believe that the chinese do not want putin to lose to them , it is inconvenient that he started this war and that he took up a cause that neither can win nor stop it puts the chinese in a difficult position. they don't want putin to lose, but they don't want to be involved in his defeat, that is, they don't want to be too closely tied to putin . it's not worth expecting a break in relations between china and russia, but china's enthusiasm for support for putin's war appears to be limited, that is, their partnership does have certain limitations, the position of president biden, to what extent will president biden be ready to bring the matter of supporting ukraine to our victory, or will the formula be used so that ukraine does not lose, as in my opinion it is not just a semantic difference, it is extremely significant changing the formula is important

to support and call ukraine to success to victory, the americans did not expect that ukraine would be able to show itself so well on the battlefield , the united states knew that there would be a war, but they thought that russia would easily deal with ukraine. this is where they were wrong and it took them some time to understand that ukraine can actually succeed in the struggle . despite this, a lot depends on the course of events on the battlefield, so in my opinion, instead of arguing about semantics, we should provide ukraine with the weapons it needs as soon as possible so that it

can confidently approach victory. at one time they hoped that the russian economy would fall by some miracle, they managed to stabilize both the ruble exchange rate and the domestic economic situation in russia in general , and actually i would like to ask you whether there are still some sanctions mechanisms left that would help the russian economy to return to the state it had, for example , at the end of the 80s -x yes, i understand that this process is ongoing, but there is a feeling that the sanctions are not fast enough and can really be strengthened, but no sanctions will ever work perfectly , there will always be evasion of sanctions however, this does not mean that sanctions do not work, imperfect sanctions are a reality, but they can harm the russian economy, which, in the end, they do, so we must increase the sanctions pressure. i recently

wrote an article in which i suggested how to do this. these new restrictions on oil, as well as to pursue those who supply prohibited technologies to russia, so all this is difficult, not perfect and takes time, but we must do it, we do not forget the experience of the soviet economy, the sanctions against the soviet economy were inconsistent and imperfect, but the soviet economy still did not survive. we must not forget this experience. well , on the other hand, russia can go, you understand. as a lame duck for quite a long time, you know, it reminds me of something to knock down a soviet t-80 tank, but she is going she is going she is killing she is moving and there is a feeling that putin is not going to end the war and withdraw his troops so we understand that

there was an accepted formula at all international platforms of president zelensky, in particular, the key story is the withdrawal of russian troops from our temporarily occupied territories, on the other hand, we understand what putin's position is, and the mutiny or pseudo-mutiny is not from putin's nose. as we all hoped, when the economy is under pressure, the russian political system is also under pressure, we we know this from russian and soviet history , we know that when russia starts wars and does not win them, political pressure increases and then changes occur, we know this well russia's defeat in ukraine ukraine's success on the field battle may mean the defeat of putinism and i very much hope for it or the election campaign in the united states may affect what is called a consolidated position of republicans and democrats democrats

are united in supporting ukraine with the exception of a very small group of the extreme left the situation with republicans is more complicated president trump does not support ukraine he supports putin , many of his followers in the republican party are also against supporting ukraine the majority is not mentioned, but their ranks are being replenished and they are very loud today declare themselves in our politics, which caused difficulties with the provision of an aid package to ukraine from president biden. president zelensky can make corrections. he met with the speaker of the house of representatives, mr. mccarthy, who is a republican and who can influence the general mood. i really hope for this . it is necessary to put pressure on russia to the battlefield and we , in turn, should help ukraine because putin's achilles heel will be found in any case, thank you for this opportunity

of the freedom front frankly and impartially draw conclusions yourself right now on the air of the espresso tv channel andriy piontkovskyi, a political scientist who is in to washington, glory to ukraine andriy andreyovych, you are glad to see president zelensky’s visit to the united states as a hero, powerful signals from the us president’s administration, at the same time, the absence of etakams , well, at least in the current official proposal from the united states and the so -called fulton speech of state secretary anthony blinkin, we understand what is unfolding now such scenarios that change the fate

of the whole world on september 13, but it 's not a matter of the general staff. i will say that zelensky is a great communicator, as always, he performed beautifully, but i would even say that my biden and blinky darkened the sky, that is, the most emotional about ukrainian anti-russian statements sounded precisely from the american country, we are ours, what the hell he said in his speech that this is a monster aggression of russia under ukraine she is not just challenging international security , she has broken it, we are in a transition from one situation to another.

eh, i note that the soviet union foresees the countries of eastern europe lowering the famous iron curtain on one. and let's investigate and we can monitor ukraine only . they invited the american leader to speak with you with this security damn what about the war crimes committed by putin in ukraine and that the only way to achieve peace is not there either, it means the end of

the two-year struggle of the american administration , we followed every stage among the victories of ukraine, there are no tablets that are not foreign, so we call it a defeat of ukraine. and why is the preacher saying that it is a defeat of russia? it seemed in june, july, semyon was a difficult place in ukraine, that the point of view, eh, we take it as a sacred victory, remember how our ryabu is looking for us from kolleba before, write and say the terrible pressure of the country of our partners, the pressure in poland, the changes , the cessation of fire, there are no real fragments the pressure, well, the miracle that happened in washington, it is explained very simply by the discussion of the scandalous incitement of the so-called diplomatic negotiations, which are known by the famous

russian distilleries agent influence tom po for forgiveness, she is already in moscow, and on the other hand, she is already enriching the essence of the sentences that she gave in november 25th, in moscow, in russian, and then with putin, when putin was still in the east , the crucian carp that led the aggression came and they asked her, and then still in the course of the vacancy do everything so that ukraine does not carry the answer to where russian territory putin day select for this even more that is aggressive on the part of nato, this is scandalous abandonment, they are of course sharply with you , the positions of themselves, all of ivan's series, and they allowed the present after the fact that i would named conceptual coup matve american administration andrey andriyevich well, we understand the conceptual coup is extremely important, but we wanted

it to materialize in long-range missile systems etekam, we wanted it to materialize in the f-16 and hundreds of tanks in the abrams m1, now a similar decision is somehow postponed and there is such a thing that part of the american establishment wants to delay it . maybe so until the spring. well, you can. the scourge against you is a static influence, so the people of the boarding house hid . yes, but the main thing is that it is accepted in principle it was indecent . и так далее мы сейчас сейчас

same newspapers after this concentric twist, they make money, they must, yes, they repeat that you, что можно пыступление , did not reach mechnyk goals when why, because it is impossible for the historical clutch without air support and we did not give the planes, the tail is not provided , so we are in this, they are doing firefighting, so the groups that are now, as it were, fenced off the initiatives with white for years, the case is the opposite choice, and what can i do now, negotiations after the appearance of the statement biden about what eh if we allow and what a thread ukraine we will lose peace over one signal all future aggressors need to act here and now that's why the second order appeared we must correct this mistake we must give all the weapons for aggression well, it all concerns

planes , yes, with a large order , but all this is implemented in the vyropey countries, and everything needs to be prepared, the preparation of laschykov. running for zelensky , i am doing after several years of painful foot-shaking, a collective request , the end of the war, the choice of the second runner-up, a full convincing demonstration victory of ukraine in russia for the west no. and it’s not just that we’ll resolve it, it’s a collective position. it’s not by chance, the same, not when they were embarrassed. this statement was made by 1001back . and he repeated again that they will change if we
