and here is what, well, i said earlier that, unfortunately, there is no strategy, neither in washington, nor in the west as a whole, there is no strategy for victory, rather help in the victory of ukraine over everything boils down to giving it drop by drop we have weapons, we are so grateful, we would not exist without it, we must understand this absolutely... clearly, but this cannot continue indefinitely, and the question arises, well, for me and for many others, in general, all ukrainians, well, how long will this war last until finally our western partners finally understand what it can be finished only by overcoming this regime of putin, and by defeating russia, and the more, the longer all these delays will be. with help and with

all the peace plans there and so on, the worse it will be for them in the first place, because putin, unfortunately, perceives this as, well, a certain weakness of the west, he understands that the west continues to be afraid of these red lines , nuclear weapons in russian, there is the possibility of getting a nuclear war and so on, and thus... does not go to further escalation against russia, although, i remember during the crimea crisis in the early 60s of the last century , such a study was known, i don't remember its authors, it seems that the us secretary of state at the time said the following phrase: escalate to deescalate to achieve de-escalation, so on... this time,

well, in our time, this formula doesn't work for some reason, i don't know why, because the americans themselves came up with it then, and it worked very positively both during the caribbean crisis and during, before things of the afghan war, in which soviet was involved union, and strictly speaking, all this led to the final collapse of the soviet union. meanwhile, the white house reports that biden will receive zelensky in washington on the 26th. on september, and the vice president of the united states of america kamala harris will have a separate meeting, it is not yet known whether it will be within the framework of the un general assembly or somewhere in the white house, it is not known yet, but a meeting with donald trump, trump himself said that he would have a meeting with zelensky, that's it.

this meeting that is planned, that is, with the current president, with the vice president of the united states of america, with the potential winner of the next election and with another potential winner of the next election, and presenting to them this victory plan, can this give ukraine additional chances or opportunities to in order to speed up or in some way change the opinion of american politicians about that. what should the war be like, what should be the main thing to win over putin? yes , of course, well, first of all, this is an absolutely normal situation when he is the leader of ukraine will meet with employees of all, shall we say , forces, even if it is on the eve of the presidential elections in the united states, but uh, president zelensky had telephone contacts with trump, he met with him even during trump's presidency, so i... in washington, it's absolutely normal,

they know each other, the more, the broader, i think, this plan will be, our peace plan is presented or the victory plan, you're better off, because we can't predict the results of the us presidential race, it's the affairs of the american people, whoever is there won, one way or another, we have, and our president should use every opportunity to reach the widest possible audience, i think there are meetings in the congress in washington and maybe in some political science centers with individual senators, congressmen, political scientists, what the more people will hear it, see it with their own eyes, the better, because hey, who will be president, what will be the situation in the united states of america, at the beginning of next year, we don't know, but we have to work on, let's say, both camps, with

in order to have both on their side, as such clear supporters of our community. mr. volodymyr, i have a question for you as a person. who knows very well how the united nations works, you were the permanent representative of ukraine at the un. today, the minister of foreign affairs of poland, radislaw sikorski, said that crimea is symbolically important for russia and for putin, and for ukraine it is strategically important, so he does not see how the two countries can come to an agreement without demilitarizing the peninsula and without the participation of the united nations, to quote sikorsky, we could pass. crimea under the un mandate to prepare an honest referendum after checking who are legal residents and so on, and we could postpone it for 20 years, sikorsky suggested. well, taking into account the actual position

of the un and its capabilities of this organization, is such an option even possible in the case of crimea and should it be done? well, you know, with all my respect for mr. sikorsky personally and for poland as one of our main allies and a sincere friend, i think that's a bit overkill here, it seems to me that those advisers or experts of the polish minister have slightly overestimated the capabilities of the un, i must say that it's not even about the mandate of this organization, but the organization is not capable of much today. well, unless hanging the un flag there, in order to sanctify something in this way, means an action, but mr. sikotsky first of all should have read the constitution of ukraine, where it is clearly and absolutely written how and in what way

a referendum on such things as there can be held territorial integrity, belonging there to a part of ukraine and so on, if he, he meant holding a referendum. in which , according to our constitution, the entire population must take part, the entire population of ukraine must take part, then this is one situation, but i have a hard time imagining how it can happen under a mandate, if we are talking about a separate part of the territory of ukraine, where some kind of referendum should be held , in which it is not clear who will participate, well, in fact, the un has, in principle, a certain experience of conducting. similar referendums there or elections or other events of such clobiscites, but it took place in completely different conditions, and i do not think that it can be applied today in relation to ukraine and to, i repeat once again, this is part of the territory

of ukraine, and the fate of this part can be decided only by the entire ukrainian people, and who will give this mandate or under whose mandate it will be done, this is already... a matter, let's say, secondary. thank you, mr. volodymyr, for the conversation, this was volodymyr yelchenko, diplomat of the former permanent representative of ukraine to the un and former ambassador of ukraine in the united states of america. friends, we continue to work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms. for those who are currently watching us on these platforms, please subscribe to our pages, like this video, and take our survey. we... ask you the following: are you satisfied with the progress of ukraine's decolonization? yes, no, everything is quite simple and unambiguous on youtube, if you want to leave your opinion in the comments under this video, write, we will read yours thoughts if you watch us on tv, pick up your smartphone or phone and

vote on 0800-211-381 if you are satisfied with the progress of ukraine's decolonization. if not - 0800 211 382. all calls to these numbers are free, vote, at the end of the program we will sum up the results of this vote. next, we have volodymyr tsybulko, political analyst, writer, people's deputy of ukraine of the fourth convocation. mr. volodymyr, i congratulate you, thank you for being with us today. congratulations, glory to ukraine. glory to the heroes. let's start ours a conversation, mr. volodymyr, about a fairly important event, both for the parliamentary life, but also for the political life of ukraine. because today the verkhovna rada of ukraine finally dismissed mariana bezugla from the position of deputy chairman of the committee on defense and a member of this committee, she became a member of the committee on foreign policy and interparliamentary cooperation, and

bezugla herself explained her decision to move to another committee by toxic processes in the defense committee and the intention to involve western partners in civilian control over. defense sector of ukraine, let's listen closely, i will try my best to attract partners, to build with them. more trust, more control, so that there are more and more questions about systemic changes, because as i noted in myself, well, in the blog, that we now have de facto narratives being broadcast, we need weapons and get off the hook, it won't work like that, we we really have to speak the same language with them, mr. volodymyr, taking into account what language bezugla speaks with the ukrainian generals... what kind of rhetoric will it be and what kind of

will be the language with our western partners, maybe it will also be used as a political torpedo against the western partners? well, i generally get the impression that there is a certain fetish for bezugla, if her general zaluzhnyi had not transferred to diplomacy, then probably zuluzhna, oh bezugla , would still be... still in the committee on national security and defense, of course i am being ironic, but it really seems that maryana is being targeted for torpedoing some international institutions. in particular, the attack that unfolded on radoslav sikorsky for the last few days, it is generally unprecedented, and if mariana bezugla is added to this, then i think that the stench will be even greater. the problem is that

maryana, who headed the subcommittee on civilian control over power institutions, did not fight corruption in the ministry of defense in any way, but she always brought to the surface, in the media space, well, let's say, the intrigues of the general life, i.e. in... all the quarrels, petty conflicts among the ukrainian generals, maryana threw out on the surface, very actively, which looked like a biased action against, well, let's say, against the political weight and authority of the military in ukrainian society. well, we will monitor what will happen next with mariyana bezugla, but on... we will remind our viewers that now she has no relevance to the defense

committee, and thank god, we will monitor how this political technology will be used further , because it is a political technology, of course. today, the verkhovna rada of ukraine adopted a resolution on renaming 328 settlements, almost blasphemed, because yesterday there were 333 and this resolution was not adopted. within the framework of decommunization and de-russification, but six settlements were removed from the list, the renaming of which the deputies consider controversial, i.e., yuzhne, yuzhnoukrainian, pavlograd, senelnikove, and pervomaisk , mykolaiv region. according to the resolution, the names of settlements that contain russian and soviet narratives or russified names will be renamed. in particular , the following cities received new names: novomoskovsk is the dnipropetrovsk region itself. pershotravnevsk, dnipropetrovsk region shakhtarske, pervomaisk luhansk oblast

sokologhirs, molodogvardiysk, luhansk oblast, otamanivka, very good for molodogvardiysk otamanivka, severodonetsk, luhansk oblast, siversko-donetsk, chervonograd, lviv oblast, sheptytskyi, druzhba, sumy oblast khutir mykhailivskyi, pervomaisky, kharkiv oblast, zlatopil , council kharkiv region berestyn iva tututina cherkasy region bagacheve, will now be called what do you think, mr. volodymyr, is the reason why, from the first time, the representatives of the verkhovna rada could not to vote for this resolution, well, we see that there is such a front, a pro-russian front in the verkhovna rada of ukraine, and obviously this became the main reason, or were there any other reasons, you as a person. which was once in the verkhovna rada of ukraine and a deputy, but are you sure that you understand the principles and

logic of voting? well, first of all, i want to remind you that no matter how much the servant of the people party clings to the formal figure of the faction, but in the last six months , not a single bill has been drafted by the efforts of the faction itself servant of the people... was never voted for, they always voted for support, for example opz, the former, i.e. deputy groups, or even oligarchic deputy groups. now this is a strange story, because on the one hand opzh looks like such playing coaches, in relation to the servant of the people faction, i want to remind you that the servant of the people is essentially a party that became a continuation of the youth organization of the party of regions, and the leader of the party of regions, well razumkov was number

one on the list of servants of the people. although the formal leader there was yanukovych jr., but everyone knew perfectly well that he was into politics like a goatherd, that is, it can be said that when zelenskyi announced that he had a plan for victory, and information leaked through the western media that zelenskyi would pedal, immediately announce the upcoming entry of ukraine in nato, i.e.... will try, in particular, to joseph biden to announce ukraine's future membership in nato before the end of his term as one of the reasons for russia's attack, i.e., and now, when the faction does not vote for decommunization, it looks a little crazy when zelenskyi asks

western partners to provide membership as soon as possible. nato as a security umbrella, and his native faction does not find votes, well , maybe, maybe this is a reaction to the fact that among the authors of this bill was petro poroshenko, well, some of the servants react very nervously to any authorship of petro poroshenko in the legislative field, maybe it was, but in reality the situation is. it’s completely cheeky, because immediately in western publications they publish about the request for membership in nato, and zelensky’s faction, assembled by his efforts and on his behalf, so to speak to say, inertia, his success in the presidential elections , a faction was established in the parliament, it votes against zelensky's will,

and maybe that will was not there, maybe objectively, not quite, to be honest , it is clear the content of this document, what it consists of , that is, what this victory plan looks like, ukrainians obviously deserve to know what plans the supreme commander of the armed forces of ukraine has for victory, in what way this victory is to be won, whether this can be considered a failure of communication between the government and society, or whether simply the strict necessity of wartime, that is... there are military secrets, and in principle, because of this, the victory plan was not discussed at all, well, not in the expert environment, no, it was not even presented at a closed meeting of the verkhovna rada of ukraine. well, it is not surprising that a politician cannot present a military plan, that is, a politician can only present

some kind of political-military document in which the military component will make up some part. because the victory is the victory of the system, that is, zelensky must now prove to his partners what he is building a state that will harmoniously enter the western community, further, he must convince his own soldiers, who are paying with their lives for this victory, that he is not building an authoritarian regime, he is building a country. freedom, for which you want to fight and win, that is, in essence , zelenskyi created a situation where he is not understood by his western partners, nor his own soldiers, nor his own population, the civilian population, which is in the rear, because it sees that this state is hyper-unjust, and the further

we go, the partisans get fatter, that is, the politicians get fatter, so to speak, and... the whole population poorer, it does not understand the goals of this struggle, although we know very well that we need a victory and the restoration of territorial integrity for the sake of freedom, for the sake of preserving national identity, and for the sake of the development of the nation, because it is possible to win a huge, symbolic victory, but then fall out of circulation for decades and not... to rehabilitate after this victory either economically or demographically, unfortunately, a rather tragic story happened before our eyes when... but we saw how zelensky rushed to save usyk from the polish police, but zelensky did not notice one very important thing, when they were making such

a loss from representatives of the ukrainian diaspora, or refugees, ukrainians, primarily refugees from the war, they did not notice that two, almost 2 million ukrainians wrote a statement of refusal from ukrainian citizenship, and this is already a defeat... for zelensky, after that he does not have to talk about the victory plan, if millions of people turn away from their own state, then this state acts contrary to the national idea, national identity, millions of people are turning away, although we remember the first months of the war, when millions of people returned to ukraine to fight for ukraine? well, here the question is how the current government actually behaves and the representatives, including the verkhovna rada of ukraine, here is a recent example of how the people's deputy of ukraine from the servant of the people andriy odarchenko, who is accused of trying to

bribe the leadership of the recovery agency , which was once headed by mustafa naim, disappeared in the specialized anti-corruption prosecutor's office, it is suspected that he fled abroad. giftenko, who offered, according to the investigation , $50,000 in rent for the placement of money for the restoration of one of the universities, i understand that odarchenko had an interest in it, and the sap initiated the collection of uah 15 million from the state income as a deposit that had previously been made by the deputy, i.e. his they accused him of trying to bribe a state official, he came out... the pledge and this pledge had already been paid to the state, well, it seems that he paid off and went abroad. just three weeks ago, president zelenskyy held

a meeting with border guards, the sbu, and various others by the special services, regarding the escape, including artem dmytrouk, a deputy who was once in the servants of the people, tell me, please, what are these unlearned lessons, how do they affect the perception... by ukrainians of the current government and the ruling party? well, first of all, this is an objective consequence of the destruction of state institutions, which began with zelensky coming to power, they destroyed not only the ministries, but they began to destroy even the anti-corruption institutions that were once formed during poroshenko's presidency with the serious participation of representatives of the european of the union, between international institutions of various kinds, and in fact, like termites have eaten all the state institutions, they are ineffective, these state

institutions are effective only in, well, let's say, in the plane of enriching their leaders, it is difficult to call the ministry of energy efficient, it is difficult to call the national railway efficient, to call, for example , the ministry of social affairs, the draft or draft budget is being discussed today, and we see that there is a reduction in funding across the entire social block, but for prosecutors' offices, for all investigative structures are additionally distinguished, that is, in fact, we observe the drift of the state in the direction of such an authoritarian type. where the state invests exclusively in the security forces, and not in the armed forces, in fact, this is a pathology, this is an authoritarian worldview,

and under such circumstances, to talk about a victory plan based on the freedoms of the citizen, on the freedom of choice, on citizen's sacrifices, no, in fact , zelenskyi... built a very unjust state, thank you, thank you, mr. volodymyr, we have to go off the air, on this note we will full stop, thank you, it was volodymyr tsybulko, writer, former people's deputy of ukraine, friends, the results of our survey today, are you satisfied with the progress of decolonization of ukraine, 30% yes, 70% no, it was the verdict program, previewed by serhii rudenko, goodbye. september discounts on lactial 20% in pharmacies plantain pam and
