ukraine will emerge from this war strong, proud and firmly anchored in the western system, if we do not leave it. americans should be proud of the role they have played in supporting ukraine's success, and we will continue to provide ukraine with the equipment and weapons it needs as long as we can. problems with aid also arose in europe. the same viktor orban blocked the adoption of a four-year aid package for ukraine on 50. the military support of kyiv by the international coalition fell to the lowest level since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, statements about the need to seek a diplomatic solution to the conflict are increasingly heard in the west, so in 2024, ukraine enters conditions of deep political, military and economic uncertainty. despite this, at the final annual press conference, zelenskyi made optimistic statements. i believe once again that our partners will not let us down, they... know the details,

what is needed, how it will affect, they know how the postponement of certain dates affects us, they know about our persistence, that it is not artificial, that it is necessary for our sustainability defense, whether there are grounds for optimism, will become clear at the beginning of the 24th. on january 8 , the american congress will return from vacation, and on february 1, the leaders of the european union will gather for a special summit to try to approve an aid package for ukraine. good evening, we are from ukraine. greetings , dear viewers, this is the velikiy eter program, my name is vasyl zima, and i and my colleagues are with you today for the next hour and 48 minutes, we will talk about many important things and discuss many i see things that now have a request for answers on social networks, like, say, reorganization or bankruptcy. or what is the matter with

the luch design bureau, ukraine without american help and many other things that, again, require a professional answer, we will try to give you this answer, and also inform you about everything that happened in ukraine today. let's start with the announcement of the collection, the espresso tv channel calls to join the collection for kamikaze drones for the 93rd separate mechanized legendary brigade of kholodny yar. these warriors have been actively protecting ukraine since 2014 on the hottest routes. this is the battle. for donetsk airports, ilovaisk, sumy region, kharkiv region, soledar and bakhmut in donetsk region. currently, the cold ravine warriors need kamikaze drones. in sufficient numbers, they can in a matter of minutes stop almost any attack and any assault of the enemy, both with armored vehicles and without armored vehicles. where there are no drone wings, the wings of human dreams and hopes are lost, and we do not want our warriors to lose their wings and for us to lose our hopes, let the wings and...

the occupiers are losing, and we will be able to do it, the amount, well, as they say, this is such a big challenge, 5 million uah, such a tribute background for us, but we will be able to answer this challenge with our entire large community, viewers of espresso, and readers and listeners, and we will do it, but now let's talk about the situation in chernihiv oblast, we rarely talk about chernihiv oblast like that, and we decided today that we should give the floor to this equally heroic region. and the heroic kholodny yar brigade, because there are many things happening there and now that are worth discussing. alexei maslov, a journalist from chernihiv is with us. mr. oleksiy, i congratulate you. glad to see and hear. as usual, i will ask about the security situation in the region, well, i will not say for the last day, maybe for the last such period of time, how difficult it is, how often the enemy tries to attack, by what means, are there any?

there is a threat to the drg, as it is, say, happening in sumy oblast, please, if we really talk about the day, the fact is that the military reports on the previous day, when the day has already ended and it is possible to make some data public specifically from the side of the military, let’s say, if we take the previous day, yesterday, then this is also indicative, as in principle, on average, so to speak, from the point of view of the arrogance and aggression of the enemy, then in the previous day there were nine according to official reports of the military , there were nine shellings, more than 30 airstrikes, explosions, the enemy used mortars, artillery, and also, as the army assumes, a tank fired from the enemy across the border, that is, there was shelling from a tank, so to speak about... about the last time,

the last few weeks, then tragic, on it is a great pity, an accident happened, or rather it was not an accident, but it was an enemy strike, it happened on the 30th. december, it was shelling, the enemy shelled from rocket launchers , shelled the town of semenivka, this is the center of the community, precisely the border community with the russian federation and the center, the connection is a little lost, but we will now restore it, because it is worth a few more answers to important questions to hear, i will remind you that... recently , the head of the chernihiv regional military administration noted that the enemy can within a few weeks form sufficient, well, now we will get to that, so please continue to complete your opinion on the security issue, please, mr. oleksiy, the connection is disappearing again, but we

are patient, let's keep going and the head of the chernihiv regional military administration said that the threat of a second invasion no one canceled in the territory of chernihiv region. yes, we understand that there are a number of regions there, bryansk, kursk, well , bilhorodsk has already gone there below, but it is from there that they can come from bryansk region and from belarus, i don’t know how, but they can also enter russian troops, and the head of the chernihiv regional military administration said something like this, that the enemy can in a few weeks form sufficient groups to invade the territory of ukraine, again we should build fortifications, better fortifications. more fortifications , more fences, mine fences, again, infrastructural, let's say, fences, we mean ditches, nets, there and others, equipment that, with which the armed forces of ukraine use, we said, and, mr. oleksiy, any please, on

it's a pity, today, you see, we talked about it with serhii zgurets, because a lot of people started discussing it, well, as if why, the head of the regional military administration. and he talks about what the enemy can form, he talks about what concerns military art and military affairs, well, at least because he is the head of this area, and he is also responsible for it, mr. oleksiy, let 's try again, please, please, mr. oleksiy, so, therefore, our communication was interrupted by what i was telling tragic consequence. had enemy shelling , on december 30 the city of semenivka was shelled and a 32-year-old man was killed there as a result of the enemy using rocket systems of salvo fire, and this happened in such a way

that there is no doubt that the enemy saw perfectly well that the shelling was actually not there are no military facilities there, and well... accordingly, there are no excuses, not even formal ones from the enemy, that it seems that these strikes were carried out on military facilities, it was purely and frankly terrorist the shelling of the city center, at a time when there were people on the streets, accordingly, unfortunately, a man died, and this is just one more proof that the border enemy, when shelling chernihiv oblast, is constantly there... their are acting, unfortunately, they are still constantly acting, their aerial reconnaissance is active, i.e. drones , they are watching, they see where they are shooting, accordingly they are shelling just peaceful streets and killing peaceful people, if we talk about the results of, for example, the year, because

that it is, well, it's natural that they are being beaten up summaries, some conclusions are being drawn now, here is the information that during the 23rd year , the enemy... shelled the border communities of chernihiv oblast more than 1,700 times, more than 1,700 shellings, and there were approximately 14,800 airstrikes and explosions. if you calculate, it turns out that more ammunition was spent by the enemy than there are people living there now, that is, our population there is about 13 thousand people in this 30-kilometer stretch along the border, which is the most threatened, and therefore... more ammunition was spent, than just people even lives there, this is implied, if you take into account the number of shells, mines, rockets and everything else that the enemy used, this is the current situation in terms of security or danger, mr. oleksiy, i want you, knowing what

we can talk about , which cannot be talked about, without keeping some secrets there, of course, and those engineering works that are carried out on the border, nevertheless reacted and explained the concerns of the head due to... who last week, in my opinion, if i am not mistaken, said about , that the enemy needs a few weeks to to form the groups necessary for the invasion of the territory. a unique invasion, in particular on the territory of the chernihiv region, therefore he called for more preparation and to do everything possible to make offensive actions on the part of the enemy impossible. we talked about this with our expert serhii zgurets, he said that the enemy has up to 9 thousand troops in these three regions near the borders, this means bryansk, kursk, bilhorodsk, and further down there, but in any case, there is a threat. but is there really such a threat and how would you comment on the concerns of the head of the region, please, well... regional military administration? yes, i can now comment in the sense that i

was personally present at this briefing when these words were spoken, and i would now like to emphasize, to bring to the attention of the entire audience, all of our viewers, that these words were taken out of context, currently, i mean reporters taken out of context, it is very important, why? because actually it was said in such a way that... to be with some predictions and generally with information about a possible attack, because when journalists asked how big this threat is now, vyacheslav chaus emphasized that understand correctly, i am quoting this close to the text, that now if, for example, i will say, this was said by the head of the regional military administration, if i say that, for example

, we are fully prepared, then again the enemy, the enemy constantly, the enemy can constantly resort to some new steps, that is, he meant that one should be careful and that in principle , theoretically, the russians can overturn, for example, within a week or two from one area, let's say there of its territory to another. some forces, so theoretically it should be assumed to be, to be ready for anything, but it was not at all about the fact that, for example, the head of the military administration gave forecasts that the enemy was planning to invade chernihiv oblast, because it is simple, well now there is no such objectively, there is no such information, but it is another matter that one must be ready for everything, and such readiness is constantly increasing, this is exactly what he emphasized, about the fact that several areas where work is being carried out, it is meant. fortification, combating enemy airstrikes, because

air defense is constantly operating on the territory of chernihiv oblast, as well as everywhere on the territory of ukraine, mobile fire groups are constantly operating to repel enemy strikes, thank you very much for clarifying, - first these words, it is very important, and thank you for your information about the situation in chernihiv oblast, oleksim maslov, a journalist from chernihiv was in touch with us, and now we will talk about a different topic, the topic of cyber security and... capabilities and threats, the capabilities of our threats from the enemy, how to live on, andriy shapovalov, acting as the head of the counter-disinformation center at the national security and defense council, mr. andriy, i congratulate you, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, let's start, sure from the news that appeared this morning, that the enemy was, if we are talking about cyber security, well... of national importance, even private companies, if we are talking about the kyivstar company, that the enemy was

already on the network since the spring of this year, despite the fact that the attack took place there in the fall or in the winter, in the winter, in my opinion, this year, what does this indicate, this is a new revelation, or maybe not new information about the capabilities of the enemy, about the weakness of the defense, about traitors somewhere on some links, please well, all these factors that you name, they have... a place, and they can have a place, most importantly, but the effectiveness of countermeasures must be measured not by the presence of the enemy, not by the presence of the enemy, in certain networks or presence in those or other companies, and if possible, repel these attacks and be as effective as possible in a short period of time. it is clear that the russians today invest crazy money, ah, both in cyberattacks and in our attacks. information space, i would separate these two such components of digital

warfare, because when we talk about cyber attacks, in most cases we are talking about interference in processes, and when we talk about information terrorism, we must understand that we are talking about interference in context, ah, and these are really complicated things, there are no such simple answers here as you would like. well that's why this war is called a hybrid one, because to oppose this hybrid, which the russians are creating today, this frankenstein monster, conditionally, is enough. it's difficult to get a quick and clear result, but we're doing our best, and the way you see these attacks bounce back, well, it certainly shows. and the petition about blocking, should telegram be banned in ukraine, today many people get a lot of information thanks to telegram channels, some telegram channels have become so influential,

it is obvious that they are even accredited as media to the president's press conference, although again, it's not the media. but on the other hand, there are also threats, how do you think we should act here, should we block the telegram, or should we somehow take certain sanitary measures that would make it safer for ukraine and less likely to be left for the enemy, well, see , look, it's like treating a headache there with a guillotine, well, in principle , it's effective, the head won't hurt. but today, again, there is no question unequivocal answer, i believe that the steps taken by the ukrainian authorities there in 14 and 15 years were very correct regarding the ban on the contact of classmates there with all the russian channels of information dissemination

to date, telegram is conditionally a news aggregator. and in principle it is necessary to promote the idea of ​​media literacy among people, that is, today telegram should be perceived as such a platform that gives you the opportunity to create that information space yourself, conditionally that information bubble in which you comfortable, here it is very important to understand the extent to which the russians interfere in... the processes of influencing your consciousness when creating this information bubble, and if we talk about the key thesis, then it is not necessary to replace mass media with mass communication, any social network is a means mass communication, to speak about the authenticity

of the information presented there, or about the authenticity of some theses that are being promoted, and... appeals and anything else is possible only when you read a verified channel, because there is a procedure on all these platforms verification, and if, for example, we are talking about the center for countering disinformation or the page of the president or the page of the ministry of defense, then we can see a blue checkmark there and have confidence that we are reading an official source, if all these sources are close, relatively speaking, ah... an anonymous source warns, well, we know for sure, well, this is most likely the first signal that they are trying to push you not where you want to go, from this side, for example, tiktok is even more scary than telegram, absolutely , there is so much served information that, in fact, people who cannot verify it or do not have critical

thinking, they can simply suffocate like under an avalanche under it and never grow out of it, they are simply torn apart, they are simply torn apart, well, even more so, we we know very well that tiktok is a chinese company, and therefore there are understandable risks here, and the information and psychological operations that the enemy conducts quite actively, trying to create such a stir in society, well , they try a lot, and by the way, with the help of tiktok as well , which ipso russia attacks ukrainians in social networks, but now, let's take the end of that year and the beginning of the year of the 24th, what are they aiming at first of all? today, their key ipso is to incline ukraine to peace negotiations, and all their opportunities that exist are involved here, to incline ukrainians today to pseudo-negotiations on peace is to give putin the opportunity to concentrate his forces, to withdraw

as many troops as possible in order to strike again at to ukraine, but... already, as he believes, a devastating blow that would destroy ukraine completely, so for the sake of it today they include in the process all their canned goods, which are spread around the world, supposedly as experts, but in fact they are pseudo-experts who promote the ideas of russian peace, that it is necessary to talk, it is necessary to exhale, such a thesis so that people stop dying, but all that putin is doing it today, we saw it all already in the 14th year, yes, here it is... attempts to settle the situation by peace with putin ended in february of the 22nd year, as far as narratives and grant-narratives are concerned in general, they actually are. led a little, this ukraine is a non-existent state and a non-existent statehood, that about the fact that we steal weapons, and everything that is provided here is provided by partners, it all perishes, this is

a question of our weak economy and energy, although, well, how can there be a strong economy today, when the country is actually in the 10th year of war and the second year in a full-scale war, and under these grant-narratives there are many sub-narratives, another one from the game . where our soldiers complain, there where they throw weapons, where they are, well , a lot of all this stupidity that you saw, well, because of what they do at high speed, it all breaks like rockets, just the way it is, you know, the way it is... well, really there are obviously facts of inappropriate treatment, say of citizens of ukraine, of tsc employees, but there are times when this is also done, the video

is definitely thrown, so when there, well, very revealingly , a man shouts, guys, save me, some woman appears, a fight begins, and it all looks very caricatured, sometimes not so caricatured, sometimes really you you believe this, and here, or you don't see the beginning of this story and. maybe someone there was rude, insolent, maybe someone was drunk, maybe someone attacked that tcc employee. the point is not that, we only see what they want to show us, and how important it is here to distinguish, first of all, the guys from the front line, because today ukrainians have the greatest trust in the armed forces, and when i saw such a video, when sitting in a car or there in the trench, the military, he says, guys, he says, don't go here, run away from mobilization in any way, by any methods, we are meat, and you you listen, and there are quite adequate people, there are not very adequate people, how to distinguish here, with a cool head. and as soon as you see something as hyperbolized as possible, well, 90 percent of the time, it is the russians who are pushing you this information bubble that causes

you emotions in the first place, so look with a cool head, check the facts, check the dates, check the source, where it came from it appeared, where did it come from, specialists of the center for countering disinformation need from one minute to 10... 15 minutes to, well, refute this fake, if it is good done, there for 10-15 minutes, this is a very high-level analyst checks this information, of course, a person who in his permanent life does not have regular, well, contact with fake checking, it is quite easy to deceive him, so i recommend showing him, for example, from telegram, now open the phone and look. if you see that several channels duplicate the same information with each other with the same headlines almost in one minute, then most likely

you have already been driven into a certain information bubble, you were forced to subscribe to a dozen channels that are actually part of the same network, and this is how the enemy creates this pseudo-reality, an alternative reality, into which he tries to push you , just as they... pushed the russians, by the way, i am subscribed to espresso in telegram , on tseplienko, on bratchuk, on golovkoma , well, that is, i already distinguish, but thank you for this advice, it is always useful for me, because the enemy constantly creates new fakes of his own, and this is very important and useful for the audience. andriy shapovalov, acting as manager of the anti-corruption center at the national security and defense council of ukraine. of course, be careful, be careful, be always, try to keep a clear head in any situation and... adequate thinking, but don't believe everything they tell you and everything they show you, it 's not always the truth, yes, but objectively , we receive information from our colleague serhiy zgurets, who actively works on

the verification of this or that information, provides high-quality analytics, he is the host of the game, the military summaries of the day column and the editor defense express agency, sergey, congratulations , congratulations to you, vasyl, congratulations to our viewers, well , actually, i will turn to you today for a question that has already stirred up social networks so precisely, well, people, and such thinking , active and... referring to the platform open data boot, where it is written that kb luch is in a state of cessation of activity, this enterprise is in a state of bankruptcy, and betrayal has begun. you can support her, and you can explain what is happening with the design bureau, which makes, well, let's say, neptunes, knees and many other things another please, really, until recently the luch state design bureau was and remains a leader in the production of high-precision weapons, this is... both neptune and a whole line of high-precision anti-tank guided missiles. the company has an order. orders are increasing for the next year, production volumes are also

increasing and... the information that in open data boot, that the luch enterprise is bankrupt and is in the state of bankruptcy, this, of course, caused a significant number of questions, including to me. what is the objective situation, now in fact kb luch changes the form of ownership, becomes a joint-stock company from a state-owned enterprise, it is exactly this process that now covers all enterprises that are the basis of ukrainian defense. industry but a new joint-stock company and now this process is happening, in open data boot there is actually no line of termination due to shareholding, and in fact this line of bankruptcy is highlighted, so in fact these are only such formal indicators that somewhat excited our viewers who follow the fate of our defense enterprises, so that in any in this case, this does not concern the bankruptcy of the leading enterprise at all, it is about a change

in the form of ownership, which actually and after some time will be reflected in a new form of the status of kbm itself. and then we will talk in the same way about missiles, about 200 missiles from britain for ukraine, but this is not storm shadow, about the situation near avdiivka in a conversation with our military, and about war, technology in a conversation with the manufacturers of reba systems, unmanned attack systems. more on that in a moment. there are discounts on eurofast, 20% in plantain pharmacies, memory and savings turn on well, it's when everything is as you want, click and you are in the world of cartoons, click and the universe of cinema is around, then, oh, what is needed. megogo, turn on hundreds of channels, thousands of movies and sports. there are discounts on zzilor, 10% in pharmacies

life and times of this game. come back if you want. the lady only goes forward. thatcher documentary. only forward. january 7 at 10:10 and 22:00 at espresso. so, after massive such enemy attacks on our territory, which took place there on december 29 and january 2. the british ministry of defense has decided to quickly strengthen the air defense capabilities of ukraine. for this , ukraine will receive 200 missiles from britain. it missiles are not stormshadow, of course, these are missiles with the am 132 asr index, which are actually air-to-air missiles for fighters, but due to sufficiently high energy, they can be used as anti-aircraft missiles. the missile

has a range from the plane there.
