all the more so since we destroyed individual fuel warehouses, again with the strikes of these air and sea drones, so this bridge is also needed for the logistics of fuel and equipment and personnel, well, as far as i know, actually every day through this bridge to crimea armored vehicles, as we can see now, and personnel and so on, are also advancing, so this is very important, i will say that when the annexation of crimea was carried out in the 14th year, the lack of heavy equipment was the main problem for the russian federation. and because well, its presence at that time in those temporarily rented places was prohibited , so even they did not have places for the tanks that they delivered to sevastopol in february, 14th year, where they

were to be unloaded, they specially brought them the rafts are concrete, which means they strengthened the coast then and then landed these tanks, and now, and then , by the way, then they captured our eyes, the stations of the border stations in order to launch the ferries that could take the railway joints on board, and now this it's a lot it means that it has become easier, because there is simply a bridge and a bridge, it actually functions, without stops , it delivers equipment there, if it is destroyed, then well, it will be very serious damage to them, and they will not be able to provide exactly the forces that are located in the south occupied by our of the state, of course, as we have already mentioned, two attacks were carried out on the kerch bridge and it cannot be ruled out that they will not happen in

the future, we were contacted by andriy rezhenko, captain of the first rank of the reserve and deputy chief of the naval staff forces of ukraine 2004, 2020. well, in addition to the war, another topic is unfolding in the information space of ukraine - an internal political scandal. perhaps there was even anti-ukrainian sabotage, at least that's how petro poroshenko called the decision not to let him go abroad on a business trip. this is the fifth. the president of ukraine, and now an opposition member of the verkhovna rada, wrote on his facebook page, poroshenko emphasizes that he has an official order from the speaker of the parliament to travel abroad. according to poroshenko, he had scheduled meetings with us government officials and congressmen, as well as with representatives of the authorities of poland and great britain, but the border guards refused him entry to the front of the border, as poroshenko's trip to poroshenko's foreign trip was obviously canceled. and these positions

are the positions of the president's office, the office of the president, for whom the war has already ended, the office of the president, for whom the attack on unity, they are all engaged in elections, and today there is an inadmissibility of the leader of the opposition, radio svoboda asked for a comment from the head of the verkhovna rada council of ruslan stefanchuk through his press service, but there they reported that they would provide a comment on poroshenko's canceled business trip. while they can’t, adding that stefanchuk himself is on a business trip, and stefanchuk’s deputy oleksandr kornienko also said that stefanchuk is on a business trip, and he himself is on the air of the marathon, edyni news, explained why exactly he canceled the decision on poroshenko’s business trip, let’s let's listen, he indicated that the main reason for participation in a non-parliamentary event, in a party forum, is an international democratic union, this is a community of parties, which probably

includes the european solidarity party, and he wrote about the fact that in parallel with this there will be some other high-level meetings, well, according to our internal documents, internal principles, participation in exactly party events, it is allowed, but when the letter of the dsk arrived, which i cannot comment on, accordingly further, we were forced to cancel this business trip. this is not the first time that poroshenko has gone on a foreign business trip since the beginning of the great invasion of russia. in may 2022 from on the third attempt, he managed to leave after his open letter to the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelskyi. let 's try to understand this scanning history now. political scientist volodymyr fesenko is in touch with us. good evening. good evening. what do you think really happened? did the authorities have the right to cancel poroshenko's business trip permit at the last moment? well, listen.

legally, i cannot assert, confirm or deny this, here is kornienko, who is an official person, who explained why this happened on your broadcast, he refers to some letter for official use, what exactly was there, if he doesn't name it, i can't say anything more, the situation is conflictual, of course, i perceive it as a continuation of the conflicts that have been going on since the 19th year, poroshenko's people do capricious things to zelenskyi, and zelenskyi 's people respond in the same way, if you explain the situation in such a simple way. you believe that this conflict could not be avoided, that is what communication is like, well , obviously, mr. kornienko himself knew that this could happen, well, i think it can be avoided it would be, and now such conflicts are inappropriate, that is clear, but i am saying that in november there were some things that specific deputies from

poroshenko's faction did, ugly things, provocative things, i mean, in particular, the posts of deputy ariev and some others, well, probably, let's say this, this is a definite definite answer, after all poroshenko will go, he has already traveled abroad, you mentioned one scandal several times last year and this year, petro oleksiyovych has already traveled abroad, i think that will go even now, that's why it's pointless to do such scandals, which poroshenko's team uses to their own advantage, that is, it is in favor of poroshenko, everything can still play on your assessment, no, i mean, what a pointless thing to do, well, now it's a scandal, poroshenko... it's emotional used it in his own interests, after a certain time petro oleksiyovych will go abroad, and the question of why it was done then, i say, this is what poroshenko’s people are doing to zelenskyi, zelenskyi responds with the same poroshenko,

it’s petty, well, petty things, in my opinion, well now, especially in the conditions of war, it should not be done, neither by one nor by the other, after all, it does not make any great political effect. this is such a scandalous effect, especially now, he, i say, will rather use it, the object of this situation, that is , petro poroshenko, so i believe that from a political point of view, this is exactly the opposite effect, so i believe that this is another mistake, it shouldn't have been done, but the emotion, i'll say it, i understand the motives, the motives are so classic ukrainian, such a petty political struggle that has nothing... special sense poroshenko, in this video message, which we are also showing now, said that the office of the president, i quote, is already living on elections. and here it is important to mention that recently it became known that all parliamentary factions signed a joint memorandum stating that

there will be no elections in ukraine until the end of the war. in your opinion, the government is still thinking about elections now? certainly not, i will remind you, it was zelsky who said in the middle of november that it was necessary to put an end to this discussion, and why? because one of petro oleksiiovych's deputies started to promote the topic that everything has already been decided by zelenskyi, they have already called elections and so on, that is why zelenskyi said in a public statement in mid-november that he does not support this idea, and this discussion should be put to an end. in addition, let me remind you that we have extended the law on martial law, which prohibits the holding of all elections, well, at least until the middle of february. that is, nothing can be done and, accordingly, it is also impossible to start the election campaign for the presidential elections, which should have taken place under the constitution, if not war and not martial law, in addition, i will also remind you that there is not a single penny for elections in the state budget for next year, so what kind of elections,

it seems to me that pyotr oleksiyovich lives in his faction, this paranoia, excuse me for this term, but he accurately reflects the essence of the situation, they think that poroshenko has planned the election, yes, they want to deceive everyone, to hold elections, especially since petro oleksiyovych, to be honest, is not the main competitor there, if the presidential elections were held, petro oleksiyovych none chances, but, but that’s the point , that gives the impression that zelskyi just has this personal dislike for poroshenko and it would seem like a political technocrat, yes, just like poroshenko and poroshenko’s people towards zelskyi, that ’s why i that's what i'm saying, yes, mutual dislike on one side and on the other. thank you very much, we tried to understand this scandalous story that is unfolding, we were contacted by political scientist volodymyr fessenko, and we discussed it with him. well, now let's talk about

the likely, or rather, the upcoming elections in russia, however, they still have a question about their legitimacy, and it became known that the majority of russians are ready to rally around... vladimir putin on the eve of these elections in the spring of 2024, because the majority of russians support the war in ukraine that he started. this is the conclusion reached by the authors of the report of the russian research center. carnegie, all naïve predictions that popular discontent caused by sanctions and military restrictions would lead to the fall of vladimir putin's regime have not come true, so write the authors of this report. they are too note that on the eve of the elections, the population of russia is ready to support putin again, and the measures of the west did not shake his power. it is important to note that the parliamentary assembly of the council of europe previously adopted a resolution that it would not consider vladimir putin as a legitimate president. russia after the 2024 elections, well, we became curious, and why a year and a half

of war and tens of thousands of confirmed deaths of russian soldiers did not change public support among russians, and we asked the head of the department of social and cultural research of the russian levvado center of oleksii levinson. here's what he said: i want to start with the new report of the carnegie center, i want to start with the new report of the carnegie center, which is based, in particular, on research and surveys of the levada center. the main conclusion from the report, in my opinion, is that the russians have adapted to the war and are ready to unite again around vladimir putin on the eve of the elections. is it so? and if so, what does this indicate? perhaps the fact that for russians the tv turned out to be more important than the refrigerator, or is this some kind of simplistic view? well, you know, i'm in on two points i cannot agree with what you said, first of all, well, you know, on two points i cannot agree with what you said: firstly, in fact, for the russians there

was no special adaptation to the war at all , because we did not note any shock or any disorientation, disorganization of society after the special military operation began. on the contrary, right from its beginning, we registered a rise in public sentiment, a higher level of support for the authorities, and speciation received support from the very beginning as well. then. here about some adaptation does not have to be said, that is, it is there, but it did not come now, but it was from the beginning, this is the first. secondly, you see, this idea that the refrigerator is fighting the tv never seemed sociologically correct to me at all, because in the conditions of russian society, what comes from the tv, that is , some patriotic or pro-government attitudes, they do not depend on the economic situation, because they are connected with such values, which russians have, to say the least, do not lie anywhere in cities, anywhere on the same shelf as economic or

life problems, we are talking about the greatness of the state, about such matters, and the fact that the situation in the economy does not affect people, it was worse, it was better, but we did not notice any influence on the mood, let's discuss then, let's then let's discuss one of the results of your recent poll, which shows that 70% of russians are ready to support putin's decision, let's say to stop the war next week, but at the same time only 34% will support such a decision in case the territory has to be returned to ukraine, what does this say, like this can you explain well, i think it can be explained in this way, well, i think it can be explained in this way, if you take the answer to the first question, which is formulated simply: if putin stops the special operation, then you are under...' or not, then yes, support, and here you can say that people are tired of war, that they do not need war, and so on.

but the next answer you gave clearly makes me think that the situation is not like that at all. the fact is that if putin stops the special operation now, if he can stop it military actions at the point where everything is now, then it can be declared a victory for russia. if it turns out that it is necessary to return or give back the territories that were this operation did not achieve its goals, so there is no victory, so there are only about one russian who supports this final, simply because it is good that there is no more war, and god with him and these lands, so i understand. this is how i understand it, well then it turns out that the majority of russians, but then it turns out that

the majority of russians, based on these polls, also support the very idea of ​​the so-called special operation, support the war, the only difference of opinion is whether it should end at those or other conditions, based on this, how fair are the statements that are often heard that this war is putin's war, that it is putin's army committing war crimes, or is it still a russian war? if so to speak, puts oneself in the position of someone... well, you see, if you put yourself in the position of some court or judge, heavenly or earthly, then of course he can say to the russians, you supported, at least in the polls, you supported this war, or you didn't resist this war enough, so you are carrying, the full version of this interview can be watched later, i thank you for

watching, this program was conducted by sashko shevchenko, goodbye. for black friday, eva buys a stock of cosmetics, and a stock of experiences from mego, minus 50% on hundreds of channels, thousands of movies and sport. meego turn on discounts. the tingling and crawling sensations arise spontaneously and disturb you. doolgit anti-neuralgia complex helps to normalize the functioning of the nervous system, dolgit antineuralgia helps to return to usual activities without tingling and numbness in the limbs, dollgit antineuralgia capsules help your nervous system. welcome to

the espresso channel. today in our military program we will talk about how our defense companies develop, test and supply the armed forces and defense forces of ukraine certain types of weapons and military equipment, because the ministry of defense itself, as the main customer, announced that from november 1, rules will apply that allow the troops to receive new weapons faster, because the ministry of defense canceled, as they say, certain excessive tests of weapons, which are not related to confirmation of its combat capability, reduced a certain number of inspections at various stages of production, simplified the requirements for the supply of weapons and equipment to the troops. what does it affect, how does it work in practice, or did it become easier for producers in the new conditions? we will try to detail all this in conversations with representatives and managers of a number of defense-industrial companies and enterprises. my name is serhiy sgurets, i am the director

of the information consulting company defense express, which, together with the espresso channel , strives to highlight the most relevant trends. in the life of our defense industrial companies and the armed forces in general, and now the first guest joins us, we have bohdan petriv on the phone, he is the acting chief designer of the enterprise ukrainian armored vehicles. mr. bohdan, i congratulate you, the espresso channel is on the air. good afternoon, thank you for the invitation. and i would like you to tell me first, exactly how these, relatively speaking, relaxed test procedures affect what is happening in your company now, because i know that right now your new model of technology, a new innovative machine is undergoing state tests, and usually such state tests, it was such a top challenge for the developers, and of course it was also important for the customer, so what is happening with your engine room now, what is being tested in practice compared to the past, what are the interim

results? well, i would like to start with the fact that although something was announced: the changes were made from november 1, in fact they were made by the cabin decision from november 21 and were given to us as manufacturers from the 26th, that is, it is still a process and we do not know how it will actually be implemented, from our side we are going through two non-state tests with innovator, we are conducting our internal preliminary tests, but we have invited representatives of all possible customers, this is the national police, this is ngu. these are representatives of the ministry of defense of various structures, to show and conduct tests as close as possible to operational conditions, and so that all these tests passed with the customers, and they could give their assessment to this and confirm what we will show and get in the tests, her innovator, in we have two types, well , the main tests, these are passability and

speed tests, economy, dynamism, and also these are shooting tests. we have already passed passability, dynamics, economy , checked, the sample showed itself very well, even a little better than we planned, we got again a speed of 135 km/h, the maximum, which is a very high figure for a car that has increased its mass and carries 10 , fighters, on which module 12 is installed , well, with a 12.7 saw gun, that is, these are good indicators, we increased it, changed the suspension along its edge and got good results in terms of cross-country ability, checked rolls, entry angles, everything meets the requirements, we are now conducting firing tests, they took place this week. we tested one of the two modules that we use on this sample, so far everything meets our expectations, and we hope that next week

we will complete these tests, prepare all the documents, acts, protocols, provide the ministry of defense, and the ministry of defense there will be no additional questions, this volume of documents will be enough for them to make a decision and allow this sample to be put into operation, now. this would mean that once they accept these documents, it will mean that the ministry of defense and other power agencies can, in principle , order this machine right now, and in this way you will be able to form a package of orders and download your enterprise in a certain way , this is how it looks, that's how, we hope that the ministry of defense will be able to check all these results by december 20, so that from january 1 we have already concluded state contracts and were able to manufacture as planned for the next year... both this modification of the car, and mr. bohdan, you mentioned that the rifles are also undergoing testing, that is, the characteristics of this module of yours are actually being checked, which, as i

understand it, is an original development aimed at having certain, let’s say, weight and size indicators and a certain firepower, what kind of module it is, what weapons it can be equipped with, which well, here are the general technical characteristics, well, look, we are currently using two modules. one module is in joint development with our partner, we have already used it on the five-digit version, now we have contributed some to development according to the results of operation and we want to present it in the best possible version, so that there are no more questions, there are some small flaws and nuances to be worked out, this is a unified module that allows you to use all 12.7 caliber machine guns and dshk. and nsvt and browning and also allows you to install ags on your base. and it will be possible to do it, we haven't

done it in mk yet. if we take samples. well, the combat ones themselves, well, it allows you to shoot at 360°, at angles of 75° at a height of -10. that is, it provides a full range of work, well, technical ones, well combat characteristics still depend on whom. the moning we receive is one thing, dshk is a little different. we also present a foreign module, which we have already supplied to our armed forces, we want to test it also in combat work on this particular machine, in this particular layout, whether it will not affect any dynamic characteristics of arrivals and how it will conduct stilbuchi, the target will be held and how is it all from can you shoot from the east, you can’t, what speeds are needed for this shooting, right now we are carrying out these works, well, we hope that they will positive results and we will be able to deliver

these samples immediately to the troops, so that the troops do not have time for preparation, rearrangement, that 's what we will do, they installed, drove and work as much as possible, mr. bohdan, who , potentially, who will be the first users of your new innovator , which unit, which relatives of the troops are there, eh, well , we hope that everyone will join, but honestly, knowing and working, having experience working with customers, i think that after all it will be the national guard of ukraine, they are the most flexible, the fastest, perceive the new equipment, so i think we will supply the first samples to the national guard of ukraine, they have experience working with our modules and our five-seat machines, they are actively participating in the tests. ee representatives from different parts came to test, er, you, well, and were in the car, and er, checked its characteristics, so i think the national

guard will be the first to order, and we hope quite, quite a large batch so we can put them there for a year, a large number of cars, but is your company planning to, or is there a request from the military, to equip such cars with drones, that is, with these reb kits, which make it impossible for the enemy to direct fpv drones against other or other cars. let's put it this way, very often we are approached by the military from the combat zone with such questions, frankly, this is not our profile, but we always follow the new developments that are available in ukraine, there are several options of good dome rebs, we, we so far we cooperate with the company kvertus, kyiv, we hope that they will get a good sample and we will be able to install it on our car, we will offer, according to

the results... such a solution, and we hope that the armed forces will take it directly from the factory, so that it does not happen as some kind of work in the field, when our military is forced to separately get a car, separately get some rap and then figure out how to install it better or worse, but until now we have not implemented these dome rebs on our samples, you said that if everything goes well, everything will be fine, then you plan on next year you will supply a significant number of these machines to potential users, does that mean that you have probably already planned in advance, is it even possible to purchase individual components that will really speed up the assembly of this machine later, well , look, there are two components here, the first is that we have been working on market and we have worked out cooperation on these issues, and we have previously worked with all companies, understanding that

we already have a sample. to the final stage, we have worked out these issues, prepared and are trying to get a quick delivery, but there is certain bureaucratic norms, we cannot , well, when we import a sample, we have to clear it through customs, we have to pay vat and so on, this is not taken into account when calculating calculation materials are calculated for us, because there is a discount that is given for military equipment, for we need to get a state contract for this... therefore, we expect that on january 1st we will receive a state contract, we will be able , in accordance with this state contract , to import a large number of components and then deliver by weight, so that there are no questions in calculation, so that the cost of the equipment itself does not increase, well, or so that it is not in the minus of our company, because, well, that is, in fact, the cost components of air conditioners. when we talk about simplifying procedures, i understand that our bodies must take these things into account.

authorities, because if the company has the opportunity to purchase in advance, then it is the same, probably, well, it should be optimally taken into account so that the production process does not slow down later, as i understand it, i think that there is some truth here, but the state decided, that she simplified the procedure after introducing these benefits, and i don't know, this issue is quite complex, and i'm not sure that i can directly evaluate it, because maybe then the state sees it, that some companies ... use it improperly, so they don't want there even more to simplify these procedures, although a company like ours, which has a lot of experience, we supply a very large number of products, can make a separate list of companies, since it is allocated for the import, export, well, military products, maybe it really simplified, accelerated and we could use your withdraw the funds by taking them abroad, without getting any time, understanding that we will buy the products, because we also cannot withdraw

the funds. abroad, we have to uh, confirm that we are using it there in the execution of some contract, and mr. bohdan, taking this opportunity, i cannot but ask about an extremely interesting question that has affected the experts and the military there, which is that your the company, well, announced its readiness with its partners to produce an infantry fighting vehicle for the needs of the armed forces, and then there was silence, so it is interesting at what stage we are now are we there, do you expect the defense to announce a tender, or are there already certain, let's say, indicators there or packages from certain competing companies that have already been handed over to the ministry of defense, that is, at what stage is this whole story now? er, let's say this, first of all, we made an offer to the ministry of defense, and it is quite profitable, i would say, financially, it is probably the best, well, at the very least, from those that we know, but since the publication of the news, there have been certain,

certain opposition. i understand our russian friends, so-called that's why we would we wanted this to not arise much in the information space, we are working, we are currently finishing certain technical issues, in terms of production, we are also working out certain negotiating positions, i think that we will implement this project and hope that it will happen in the near future, but there are some there are certain delays, and there is a lack of a fully formed need in the ministry of defense, but i think that a few of their meetings and this issue will also be resolved, and as soon as we establish cooperation and do it serially, we will inform you, present samples, let's invite you for a test, well, it 's probably still a long time to wait, i hope that everything will be much faster, and that is, what is your vision in general, that is, this bmp, therefore?
