[000:00:00;00] raised this topic and said that we are consulting about the elections that may be held during the war, then the kuleba, that is, all the same, these are some trial layers that are being laid by the presidential team, although the same representative of the president in the verkhovna rada, fyodor venislavskyi, said that , that presidential elections during the war will contradict the constitutional principles of electoral law and, most importantly, the result, if such elections, god forbid, will be held, they will contradict, question the legitimacy of the president hypothetically elected during the action martial law, and why, if there is such a wide discussion in the presidential team, why doesn't the president himself put dots of hope , say, listen, people, now there is a war, what elections, let's wait for the victory, because a lot of people have gone abroad,

they will not be able to vote, there are a lot of people on the front line now, they will not be able not to run for office, and they will not be able to vote either, because any crowding, as we can see from the same story of the 128th brigade , can end simply tragically for people, which gather in one place, why is there no such clear from the office of the president, if there is this discussion, because the office of the president is not a body of power, it is an auxiliary body, so these are their questions, what they discuss there and everything else, in the parliament we do not hear them, we do not see them, and even more so such conversations about some... doubts about the president, about the fact that it is necessary to hold some elections during the war, because in the parliament, well, you ask me, i and we clearly know the legislation , we adopt it ourselves, moreover, i emphasize that we we declare martial law for a reason, we give all, we gave all power to the supreme commander, period, who will be re-elected , let those who are playing with this idea come out to the people of ukraine and explain, but you, mr.

serhiy, touch on much more serious aspects , that in fact, any election is not only about those who think, elect me to power, it is also a question of participation in the elections, precisely people, our defenders, but i am convinced that their participation in the elections is the first and the ultimate reward after victory, they have to determine after victory over the enemy, what will be the country, who will be in power in ukraine, and that there will never be any more corruption in ukraine. here is the whole answer, give the opportunity to the defenders, first of all, to fully participate in the elections, which will not be the only ones after the end of the war. there will be elections for the president, parliament, and local authorities. and this is actually very important. and now about what i wanted to say for those who may be watching us today. i

think those who are throwing around the idea of... any election, any election during martial law on the territory of ukraine , whether they want it or not, they are trying to justify the elections that the aggressor held under the muzzles of machine guns and assault rifles in the temporarily occupied territories of ukraine. i advise you to think seriously and seriously, you know, we should all not accept these measures in order to. you know, in no, in no situation did i return in such a way that the aggressor, or the aggressor in the country, so to speak, well, you see, ukraine too, during the action, it was so, i absolutely agree with you, mr. valentin, urgent news arrived, just outside kiev everything where at home from grenade explosion, zaluzhny's assistant was killed. it is about the fact that this tragedy occurred as a result of careless handling of a grenade

in the village of chaikin. in the kyiv region, as reported by the spokeswoman of the ministry of internal affairs, maryana reva, and sources of ukrainian truth and sources of espresso, because we also received this information, in the village of chayki , a 39-year-old soldier died in his home due to careless handling of ammunition, his 13-year-old the son was seriously injured, he was hospitalized, and according to ukrainian truth sources, the deceased is gennadiy chestyakov, he was an assistant commander-in-chief valery zaluzhny, during the inspection of the apartment, according to the publication, the police found five more whole grenades, well, here is the story, what actually happened there, i think the law enforcement officers will already find out, there will be more information, especially since it is about

about the assistant to the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, well, but we, mr. valentin, let's remember how the president's office visited zaluzhny's veze economist article, because the foreign mass media are already writing about it, about the fact that the deputy head of the president's office of ukraine began to comment on what valery zaluzhny said in his column for the british publication, and the new york times writes that the military and political leadership of ukraine have opposite views on the course of the war, its future prospects, that is what is happening in the ukrainian public space, it reaches the western public space and intersects with the western public space, how do you think the absentee discussions that we now see between zelenskyi, between, between zelenskyi's entourage or the team, let's say the president's office and team, how will they affect how we are received in the world, especially in the context of the current stage of the war.

let's sort through those and what prevents us from making a correct assessment, these are people who have no right to comment on the war, and even more so, the commander-in-chief, no matter who they are called and in what offices they work as advisers. this remains really important, what is important is that the commander-in-chief, the industrious general, in an article in the material for the economist, there is both a column and an article, laid out important for defense ukraine's positions, there are several of them, well, let's not take away the air, i already think that most ukrainians have read the translation of the article and the column, the most important thing is that the international partners, i will tell you about the american partners with whom i personally communicated and communicate, it is more important that they said that for both republicans and democrats, it became clear that in this situation , ukraine and the armed forces really need a conflict, so

that russia does not take advantage of this situation , in order to pressure ukraine to the negotiations and thereby affect the reduction, possible reduction of american or other international aid. zaluzhnyi and the position of the commander-in-chief is important to the professional american and european military, who are real advisers to their presidents and governments and parliaments, and we know that general zaluzhnyi communicates directly with the chiefs of staff, with the heads of military units from western countries, countries of the anti-putin coalition, they are all nato member countries, and for them, for the military, it was additional arguments. for to talk with the leaders of their countries, what and how we really need to further help ukraine, especially the armed forces of ukraine, and lastly, my conclusion is that the next ramshtein, the interdiction aid group

of ukraine, the next meeting will be precisely focused on speeding up the transfer ukraine's combat aviation, we are talking about the f-16, and luzhnyi said about it, and to speed up the transfer. of ukraine additional radio-electronic and other complexes for suppressing, suppressing, suppressing, shaheed and other drones, barrage munitions, which russia continues to terrorize and here we have just started transmitting odesa and the whole of ukraine, using such dangerous weapons that we still do not have enough means for radio electronic warfare, as well as many other issues, which, by the way, general zaluzhny i didn’t mention it in the article, but they, our general staff, and international partners are discussing and proving, i’m talking primarily about the american partners, and the latter, i’ll summarize, for the supreme commander-in-chief for the president of ukraine

zelenskyy, i don’t really see a big deal either intrigues, he is the supreme commander and controls all the commanders of all branches of the army, and the rate works, and we know that it is rhythmic. and the military cabinet, and the national security and defense council, all the tools are in the hands of the cunning commander, so i would not intensify or look for intrigue, intrigue where there is none. thank you, mr. valentin, it was valentin nalyvaichenko, people's deputy of ukraine, former head of the security service of ukraine. friends, we are working live on telekanaluso, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms, for those who are now watch us live on youtube. please like it. in this video, subscribe to our page, and also take part in our survey, on youtube we conduct a survey and on television, should we hold elections for the president of ukraine in 2024, yes, no, those who are currently watching us on

the espresso tv channel, please , take part in our voting, and we have two options, if you think that it is necessary to hold presidential elections on the 24th... ukraine , please vote by phone 0800 211-381 no 0800 211-382. you now see on the screen. that 93% of those who took part in our survey on the espresso tv channel do not want the presidential elections of ukraine to take place in 2024, well, because of the war, of course, so continue to vote, at the end of the program we will sum up the results of this vote, further on communications roman bezsmertny, politician, diplomat, extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador of ukraine to the republic of belarus in 2010-11 . mr. roman, i congratulate you and i am glad

to see you on our air. good evening, sir sergey sir, mr. roman, quite such a broad discussion has been taking place during the last week in the international media, about what is happening now on the russian-ukrainian front, about the situation in ukraine, about what is happening in the higher echelons of power. first, an article in time, where the author was. an american journalist, simon schuster, and this was a journalistic text , followed by valery zaluzhny's column in the economist, where he clearly emphasized where ukraine is now, what ukraine's needs are, and what ukraine expects from the west. and that's it the washington post also wrote, wrote an op-ed that says ukraine is in a worse situation today than it was last november, with troops tired and depleted weapons stocks running low, and western society more polarized about

providing further support. at the moment, supporters of ukraine need to rethink their theory of victory, and there are many, many different points, but they agree with what the same general zaluzhnyi wrote . , in who we are, are these explanations of the event understandable, do they have no illusions about what is happening on the russian-ukrainian front, well, first of all, it is very important that when we go we talk about these informational explanations, and that they are explained in in the form in which they were, this is firstly important, and secondly, so that we do not get attached to certain sources and do not

see others, because there are other sources that write about completely different matters, like mr. sergiu, we are familiar long ago, let me clarify something, and yes, the first is simon's article shuster, who, from my point of view, has nothing to do with the issue we are talking about, in principle, because it is such a public. an artistic and publicistic thing, and i literally analyzed the situation today, why it was necessary to write it in such a way, i realized that it was just promotion and preparation of the reader for the release of the book in december, under the tentative name zelenskyi, i did not tell anyone except you on this topic, because you are the author of a similar book, which, well, you rarely meet

a language in the world today that has not been translated into your book about zelensky, i'm just saying that we should understand that simon schuster solved his questions, besides, there are a number of things, ah, which, well, let's say, made up, fantasized, and well, although desire, and ukrainian journalists wrote much more precisely about the same... things, and i would recommend paying attention to them, because everything is laid out there with documents and evidence with surnames and so on, so if we talk about this topic, i would leave this part of the conversation aside and let it lie to myself, because from my point of view its purpose was completely different. now, as for the economist and the whole epic, the first thing

i want to draw the attention of our viewers and listeners is that the so-called opinion of the economist of the eu, the industrious general zaluzhnyi, was presented in the content of two short articles, which are written in the style of american, british, of the european press, when an interview is written on the basis of some material, to me. i have repeatedly had to give interviews to western journalists in my life, you can speak for an hour and a half, and then no there will be no interview, just in the article. there will be only two or three links, and those that are highlighted in quotation marks, that it is like a fragment of a conversation with you , so what you see now has spread around the world, a dead end there, this whole conversation, they are actually taken from these two previous articles, they

are even now on zaekonist, and right at the bottom, below these articles, there is a link to the so-called new essay. general, general zaluzhny, although, if you read, a scientific article by general zaluzhny, because this is a completely different genre, and i attract the attention of everyone who will read about it this material, compare it with something else, and even from above, if you open this complete ase, there is even a classifier, udc, there are three... 55, if i am not mistaken, is the number of the so-called classifier of scientific works, which indicates a priori what is being discussed in the topic of this material, that is why it is very important to understand when we talk about this topic, but if we take today, especially the ukrainian ones

to analyze, then their messages are not based on the report of the scientific general zaluzhny, but on these two. .. well , remember, in soviet times they said leading figures, yes, these leading figures, who set the appropriate tone that part of the western world wants to see, while , let's say, others write about something completely, completely different, and one more thing that must be understood when we come to prepare this topic , this is an article by general zaluzhnyi... general zabrodskyi in september 2022, and with the same plot, relatively speaking, the current situation, what we planned, what we achieved, what advantages, what disadvantages, how these disadvantages should be fought and what

strategic future plan i'm not talking about the fact that the very title of the scientific report of general zaluzhnyi, it clearly says that it is not about any deadlock, it is about how to work further to defeat the enemy, you know, i read, i think that reminds me this material, and i remembered, i remembered the book, academician horbulin, as you remember, how to defeat russia in the future war, and here we are actually talking about a positional war, how to win in such a war. and for the current ukraine, these are fundamental things that must be understood, now, actually, and why is it picked up this tonality, which today dominates the mass media, especially the ukrainian ones, because if you take the entire spectrum

of the western press, and i will not list them, there is everything, there is everything from the ala genre. simon schuster to academic editions, to such scientifically popular editions as foreign offers, which try to combine one and the other style so that it is readable. ah-ah, as for the answer to the question, why exactly, why exactly, oh-ah, zaluzhny's article is devoted to why the obra was chosen. such a roll, the point is that the current one the political conjuncture, and the global political conjuncture, it falls somewhere in the election campaign, close to the election campaign to what is happening today in the united states of america, and it actually leaves

an imprint on any processes, plus the elections in the congress of the speaker, the congress of the united states of america, the palace... in the house of commons of the speaker, which of course overlapped, and all this was given a completely different character, because , if we talk about certain accusations in the article a-a, by simon schuster, then, ambassador the united states of america has clearly and absolutely indicated that there is no abuse of the funds that come from the united states of america. there was and is not, and what kind of funds, 2/3 of these funds, in principle, they never enter either the ukrainian budget or the ukrainian consumer, they are distributed there directly in the united states of america. between manufacturers, between competitors, by the way, lobbyists, who are republicans on one side,

democrats on the other, and it's their business to figure these things out. now as to the fragments which fell, here are sensible scientific things that fell, that is, on this soil, corruption, anti-corruption scandals , international politesse and so on, they are absolutely not here... moreover, because the technical-tactical, scientific, strategic things that are mentioned in general zaluzhnyi's article, have absolutely nothing to do with all of this, but the problem is that they just asked and the tools for the preparation of this article, which i say once again, was written in a different genre for a different purpose, well, it is completely incomprehensible on the surface thesis about

some kind of discussion or some kind of confrontation between zaluzhny and zelenskyi, because there is none here and there can be nowhere, i am not talking about the tone or any countertheses from both sides, they cannot be in principle, because the nature of the report is one and the material is public at all about another mr. roman, join us. the spokeswoman of the ministry of internal affairs maryana reva, communication was lost, the editor tells me, today near kyiv, in the village of chayki in the kyiv region , zaluzhny's assistant was killed, it happened somewhere at 5:15 p.m. zaluzhnyi has already reacted on his own page in the telegram channel, he writes that today under tragic circumstances, on his birthday, he died in the family circle. assistant and close friend major gennadiy chastyakov contained an unknown explosive device in one of the gifts. gennady

is survived by his wife and four children. my deepest condolences to the family - wrote the commander-in-chief. from the beginning of the large-scale invasion, gennady was a reliable shoulder for me, completely devoting his life to the armed forces of ukraine and the fight against russian aggression. reasons and circumstances were established during the pre-trial investigation. and contact us. maryana reva, madam, mrs. maryana, good evening, or rather, good evening, good evening, i greet you, please tell me what happened in the village of chayki, here they report in the village of chayki, some, some in the suburbs of kyiv region , kyiv, what happened to this gift, did it explode, at first there was information that some kind of grenades were in the hands of major chastyakovov. according to the information received from the police, from the investigative

team that arrived at the scene of the call, it there was, there was an explosion as a result of careless handling of the ammunition, which really, the situation will be determined, the investigators will determine, for this purpose a pre-trial investigation should be started, in fact for a person, as well as article 263 of the criminal code of ukraine, this is illegal handling of ammunition, all circumstances, they will be studied carefully and objectively, now the information that comes in, you understand, it comes in military mode, i apologize, in real time, so it is necessary to give the investigators a little opportunity to work, to collect the evidence base. conduct all the examinations, conduct a survey as part of the pre-trial investigation, and then we will have an objective picture. mrs. marino,

in the initial information that appeared in the media , it was also mentioned about the 13-year-old son of the deceased major, do you know what is happening to the boy now? according to our data, the boy was seriously injured, he is under the supervision of doctors. thank you ms. marino, it was maryana reva, spokeswoman for the ministry of internal affairs. we follow what is happening with the story of the death of a close friend of the general zaluzhno, major gennady chastyakov, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, has already reacted to what happened, according to zaluzhno, on his birthday in the family circle, the major was opening one of the gifts, and an unknown explosive device was detonated, so far the law enforcement officers do not give an exact answer,

whether was this explosive device in the gift box, or was it? there was some other explosive device, the investigation is underway, and we continue our conversation with roman the immortal, and mr. roman, well, you see, the tragic news related to general zaluzhny, during the war, nothing can be ruled out, of course, but you said that these are all conjectures or some... some stories about the fact that there are some misunderstandings between zaluzhny and zelsky, that this is at the level of fiction , that there is no such thing, as in this case, well, to react to what appears in the publications in the western press, they are specially heating up this topic, or in principle, the employees of the office of the president of ukraine are provoking it, who are starting to comment on

the industrious, although in principle, well, probably the deputy chairman of the president during the war definitely should not have commented on the actions or statements of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine. well, mr. serhiy, there is one fundamental thing about which i keep saying , unfortunately, i don't know for what reasons, but in ukraine, well, i don't know, there are five or six trained military personnel who can, for example, since the representatives of the press services of the corresponding pentagon or the israeli army comment on any materials that come from the supreme commander, from the commander-in-chief, from the heads of the military branches there, and so on, and this actually generates, due to a non-professional approach to these things, a huge number of problems, remember

three or four years ago, well, in general, it was... it was very difficult to determine what we were talking about, well, now at the level of the operational situation , there are people who are enough they expertly comment on events at the front, there with shelling, everything, similar things , they are subject to interpretation, well, at the level of arresting from a small letter, and actually this gives rise to... an unlimited number of all kinds of rumors, it is clear that this is instantly caught by means of mass media information, especially westerners, they search for it, they search for it, they search for all kinds of fragments, well, you and i both know what suslovshchyna is, so when there is a quote for every case, it is also here, because if you read all these things,

they are torn phrases , phrases taken out of context: actually from a scientific report , by general zaluzhnyi, well, it is clear that in such a case, when a person objectively and holistically considers any process, one can always sneeze at any fragments, now you have asked an absolutely correct question, and why is it played like that in the west? well, because it's in the west a democratic society and where there is power, there is opposition, and everyone criticizes...' a moment in order to earn a medal in the form of voters' votes, but please look at how the situation in the congress is developing now, and the speaker has already said more than once : we are ready to vote on the aid package for ukraine, but there is such a song going around that it seems that in principle this

package will never be voted on, and actually what ukraine needs is the same. the ukrainian side also says that these funds are needed control, and more is needed once, i emphasize on this to understand that the vast majority of this money , it has never entered and does not enter ukraine , these are funds that are distributed among weapons manufacturers, because most of the weapons come from warehouses, and for the funds that are produced, which allocated, new weapons are made to replace them, it was so and remains so and will be so, because the reserves are huge, they, only money is spent on them to bring them into order, so that they can be used, and then, it is not by the way, this is not the only thing that is done in ukraine advantage, this is also a big problem from the point of view of service and maintenance of military equipment, well, we are not talking about it now, actually, this is the reason that allows,
