[000:00:00;00] is happening with american support, when michael jordan was elected the speaker of the lower house of the american congress, the house of representatives, then it was already said that there would be certain difficulties, despite all the efforts of the president of the united states, joseph biden, whether these difficulties already exist and to what extent they can be overcome , uh, it's about ukraine, i didn't really hear until the end that you are there. asked, we are actually talking about the assistance that the united states should provide to ukraine, as it corresponds to their, including strategic vision, but obviously due to certain political processes within the united states and due to certain personnel nuances, the decision on the budget for next year is still a big question, we understand the idea of

​​the democrats to still block... processes and combine into a single pool, israel, taiwan and ukraine, however, this is not happening yet, no decision has been made, and we are not talking about allocating any funds for us for the coming year. well, first, we have to start with what i think is a very important statement by president biden, in relation to close combat. in the east and his speech from the white house, from the oval office, in which he practically put israel and ukraine on the same plane, and perhaps even mentioned ukraine more often, emphasizing that the united states, that it is in the national interests of the united states to provide assistance as

israel, as well as ukraine, that is... in their desire, the desire of the president of the united states to continue to provide aid to ukraine, there is no decision of the house of representatives and actually representatives of that maga sect, the trumpists, who decided to allocate aid israel and ukraine, they wanted to play on absolutely normal feelings of americans. of the american administration to give aid to israel at such a critical moment in its history, when it began there very, but in my opinion, the senate acted extremely wisely and courageously, because it rejected this bill, which only favors israel, and now negotiations are going on

intensively to return to the project presented by president biden and which is calculated for 100 six billion dollars, of which 60 billion wants the white house will allocate 14 billion to help ukraine, and 14 billion for immediate help to israel. thus, i think that they will come back and adopt, will be forced to adopt a law, with certain amendments, of course, with certain compromises, but i think that it will be a law in which combined aid to israel, ukraine, taiwan and the construction of the infamous , or the famous wall on the border of the united states, and mexico, so i think there will be help,

the only question is whether it will be in the... to the extent that the white house has planned, that's the big question, it seems to me that the white house will have to make concessions, which will make some concessions, and certain amounts may be reduced, but there are still some mechanisms, additional assistance, and in principle, well, it seems that for the 24th year we will be provided with assistance , although it must be said frankly that in the middle east in the gas sector, which is also a very difficult situation there, the political fate of biden depends on it, and it is in his interests to either win this campaign, i mean the war against russia, and the war against hamas, or he will lose the election because if god forbid, it will happen that there will be no success

in both battles, uh, biden can lose, because now he already loses to trump in five, states, key states, where. it is necessary to win over someone in order to become the president, but tell me, mr. yuri, but still, this is probably some such high-quality suff , when we talk about the american senate, i ask for a little more sound, sound, i say that how you think it's a quality suf, yet when you talked about the position of the us senate, we wouldn't, couldn't to see the situation even in the recent past, to block the law on military aid to israel, for the sake of a third country? i think that this is a very serious step, maybe not even very popular there in the united states , because we know what, what importance is attached not

only to israel, and it takes a very great political courage to block this aid, which caused people there to many representatives of this pro-israel lobby, because they believe that of course we should immediately provide aid, no doubt it's not that israel needs very quick help, it's a very strong step , and i think that here on the screen is a huge, great friend of ukraine, and they took this step deliberately, and let's remind you that right now it 's especially interesting in the united states to watch the debates of the republican candidates, i strongly advise all ukrainians to follow it, the process is really fascinating, and at the same time, mr. yuri, the white house confirms that

san francisco will indeed meet in the field of asia-pacific economic cooperation and the summit dedicated to it already 15 in november, what will be discussed, whether it will be exclusively about economic issues, since they are still very much the western world and the east and the understanding that it is necessary somehow, somehow in this sense to get along on a single planet, i think that both leaders are present, well, you said correctly that it will be an epoch-making meeting, although it is far from clear that there will be epoch-making results, i think that there will be no dramatic, very serious results... there will be at first, but the fact that there will be at least 10 very important issues that have already been made public, regarding discussion between the two leaders, it is undoubtedly one of the key issues

not only to be in china, from the united states of america, but there will be a question of reestablishing the connection between the military of both countries, this connection: it was broken, suspended, and meanwhile there, there were very serious incidents that could lead to world war iii, uh, let's say there was a near collision of an american b-52 strategic bomber carrying nuclear weapons with a chinese fighter jet that flew within 3 m of that bomber and had a hard time to imagine what would happen if this, a terrible incident happened, and relations between the two countries deteriorated sharply, it is possible

that even some limited ones could begin, with the philippines, will be on the agenda, since china has encroached on the security of the philippines and the united the states have declared that they will defend not only taiwan, but also the philippines, their ally, they stand there, of course, the war in ukraine will stand, there is a question in the context of the transfer of the korean people's democratic republic, i think that the best result for us would be if although they started, there was some kind of movement in those american-chinese relations, so that china did not stand as much on the side of russia as it stands today, and russia is a strategic ally for it, although the interests of china,

in a broad sense, interests are economic, interests in general division of the world, the sphere of american influence and chinese should obviously prevail... his alliance with putin is temporary, in my opinion, and obviously the work will begin, but of course china... it is not the country that solves a dramatic issue at one summit turn its foreign policy by 180°, if they do, then by five degrees, by 10 degrees, no more. to what extent, in principle, can it be assumed that for the american-chinese summit, the issue of the war in ukraine, relations with russia will be a priority, but the number one issue, taiwan, economic relations, maybe even...

the situation in the far east? i think that the number one issue is the vision of the global world, the vision of the bipolar world, which is already being discussed in full seriousness by many analysts, that is, the world is divided between the united states and china, china taking the place of the soviet union. there are economic problems in china, and there are such views that china itself can fall apart, can be divided into mainland china, coastal china, that prosperity zone, there deiha, shanghaihai, eh, and such a view exists, and xidzenpingu, for in order to strengthen his power.

not in vain, he needs significant results, and it is obvious that the calculation will be that, at least temporarily, at least for five, 10 years, reconcile with the united states, until the moment when china feels that his armed forces are preparing for a global war, and then, unfortunately, a world war will occur. in the 1930s, but today it is not for nothing that xijin pinen goes to san francisco, he would not go just like that, in order to look at this beautiful city and talk to biden, and it is clear that there is a very serious interest in china in order to agree on certain points with the united states and just a few words with your permission about the pleasant messages from

the european commission recommending to the european council to start negotiations on accession of ukraine to the european union. this was stated by ursula vonderlajen at her briefing just a few days ago. in general, the report on the reforms we have carried out will be at the end of the year, it is already about 90% allegedly, again the assessment of the european commission, but, if we are talking about specific requirements, then four out of seven, has there really been some tectonic suf in this week our movement towards joining the eu. well, you know, i would say that this tectonic shake-up, if it happens, will happen on december 14-15 during the eu summit. to use a metaphor for

our progress towards, the european union is of course a huge event and once in history, this day when we are invited to talk about our membership will become a series of historic events, but we have to wait, wait, for that date , when the 27 countries of the european union will express themselves regarding the possibility of ukraine being allowed there, the key is turned , the lock is open, the door is open somewhere on the er, well , for a few minutes, they are not yet fully opened, open to ukraine, but we have to to wait when the conversation will be very serious, and we know that several countries will master ukraine's desire to join the european union, well, first of all: also with

poland, regarding certain points that are dangerous, say, for polish agriculture, ukrainian competition, today you know that the border is blocked by carriers, thanks to the decision of the european union proe open regime , securing those transports and so on, there may be any problems that we must be prepared for, i'm not talking about that after we drink champagne, when there is a decision of the eu summit to admit us to this process, the most important thing will begin, which is the preparation of tens of thousands of documents, various, complex, very, very serious documents, where different positions will be agreed upon, where ukrainian , if we really

want to remain a member of the european union, then we must overcome these difficulties, but it will take... well, at least in my opinion five years, and all these optimistic statements of our deputy prime ministers for a two-year period, well, you know what our vice-prime ministers and ministers leave the political arena sooner than they make promises about very quick terms of entry somewhere, well, into the european union, which is a very difficult, very difficult job. and we should be aware of this, and one more circumstance, which is very important, is now very active in the opinion , well, at least currently the ruling peace party, is turning from a union of countries into a country,

turning into the united states of europe, and the polish, uh, very keen on the language of the public is called the new form of the european union after the reform, called the fourth reichorium and all the time it is said that the 10 main areas of the european union will no longer be subject to the veto regime, and countries will be forced to listen to the overwhelming majority, and the majority is determined by the number of the population, and germany will become. a serious power, the absolute ruling power in this country, poland to germany to the possibility , let's say, they don't want to switch from the zloty, which turned out to be a fairly normal currency, to the euro and so

on, and they write all the time that a new vote will have to be held, new referendum nationwide. since poland joined one european union, and today in connection with another, another formation of another, let's say , superpower, and this is very serious, we talk very little about it, and i'm not saying that we need to with polish reservations to stop our movement towards the european union, no, we need to become a member of the european union, because without it we will hardly be able to overcome... our economic problems, and the restoration of the war-ravaged economy and what awaits us in the future. thank you, thank you, sir yuriy, yuriy shcherbak, diplomat, public figure, writer, former ambassador of ukraine to israel, the united states and canada, was our guest on the air. the next guest, guest

vadym polishchuk, a historian and political observer from the israeli city of lot. and of course we will talk about the situation in the middle east. we welcome you. mr. vadim, good evening, so kudos to ukraine, heroes, kudos, so let's talk about the organization, which is another quasi-army of iran, only in lebanon, it is approaching a serious mistake and what beirut can become a second gaza, is there really a probability of war expansion and real fighting in lebanon? well, of course, if the sbola dares to attack already on a full scale, then the probability is real. there is not, because a large part of the israeli army is now located precisely in the north of the country and ready actions are already underway, and if israel was interested in solving the hezbollah problem, then there are many reasons, because these are shelling of israeli territory, murders,

even not only of military personnel, but also civilians, and in principle very tense the situation in the north and rockets and drones and mortars are being used by hezbollah , but israel, in my opinion, must first solve the gas problem, and then decide what to do next with the fisbola, well, the gas sector actually, how, in general, is the development of the tzagal operation in this operational zone , we usually regularly monitor and see evidence that hamas has actually dug in deep, this is very mildly and succinctly said, that is, there is a lot of work, isolated from the other part, and israel is somehow trying surgically. just

to solve the problem first in the middle of the night and now the operation is already reaching its climax, well, israel itself has not yet reported, but arab sources already say that the operation has begun precisely in the shifa hospital, this is the heart, precisely of hamas , those leaders of hamas who remained in the sector, well, the leaders not directly... they manage, well, the field teams, let’s say, there are very large warehouses and a lot, if this particular hospital is taken, it will solve very, very serious problems, because this is exactly the node, it was such, well, key in the gas sector , and always sounded exactly, shifa hospital, shifa hospital, by the way, was built by israel at one time, when he controlled it and built it very well , exactly, exactly and calculated, so that it was as safe as possible, there are the first ones,

the first ones are the underground levels that are there , it was built by israel, and then they began to dig deep and to the sides, but tell me, please, still, mr. vadim, we are talking about the elimination of hamas, we are really saying that the huge number of field commanders in gaza is one history, and the hamas politburo leadership, it is in qatar, it is in other arab countries. how can hamas be destroyed when the leadership of hamas exists and can recruit new supporters immediately after any operation is over, how can we prevent hamas from regaining power in gaza when the real leaders of hamas are next to the arab leaders, we see ismail haniyeh, haniyeh next to the arab leaders the leaders, khaled mashal, saw gases, these are people who live in qatar, how can the situation be changed here? well , we see that hamas is present not only in gaza, he is also present as an example of action in samaria, but due to the fact that israel

still constantly carries out such purges in these territories, he does not allow him to roam there, because what, what was a very dangerous gaza, which , in fact, hamas had there , the entire complexes there are underground, they... for years, israel carried out bombardments there, they could not solve this problem, and if israel will control the gas sector, then even if some hamas members remain there, someone there will sneak in there somewhere, that's not it anymore will have such consequences, there will be no rocket attacks, there will be no such propaganda, which was there in those schools, when the children there hate the jews from childhood and the only thing they dreamed of was to start killing, you see, and

he just, well, just like igil at one time, i.e. when igil was left without territory, when these former iraqi military men who were in charge were actually eliminated, well, in fact egil has already ceased to carry such a threat, so did hamas itself and a little bit left in this territory , it degrades and turns into one of the large number of some warring groups of islamists there. mr. vadim, the evacuation of ukrainians from the gas sector took place only this week, although we understand that the situation was and was getting hotter every day, literally, things as our partners, when we evacuate not only our citizens, but also their family members , even though they do not have ukrainian documents and so on, there are both children and men, it is not so important how you would generally assess the speed

of the reaction of the ukrainian state and the quality of this reactions to the protection of their citizens in this critical situation? well, the reaction of the state is the reaction of the state, but we see what the hamasites have to do to get their citizens out of there, the russians generally waved their hand at this matter. despite the fact that they kiss with hamas there and are in fact their henchmen, they do not care about their citizens there at all, and many russian bloggers even accuse them of this, well , they did what they could, but the family members of these ukrainian women which came out, because egypt does not approve of the fact that... let residents of gaza into its territory , and hamas itself

interferes with this in any way. in principle, if we talk about what is happening now with the time of israel's operation, how much time do you think israel still has in terms of the reaction of the international community, i asked that israel should not
