weapons, logistics are complicated, there are not always weapons in warehouses, i understand that, but everything is fine, i know that our partners, the united states, are doing their best, i have those when they are assigned, when they are assigned, they, the american military, the american national guard, they all they will pull it, i know, these are people who are doing a huge thing, but they need political solutions, money and political guidance, and then the pentagon, intelligence, and hold on... will do, and the americans in this regard, they are very efficient, professional, therefore , these are purely political decisions related to the strategy of the united states, nothing more, no less, i affirm it and can provide arguments. thank you, mr. valery, i will remind our tv viewers that throughout our broadcast we conduct a survey, we ask you about the following: do you take the kremlin's nuclear threats seriously, yes, no, everything is quite simple on youtube, either yes or no, write your own ...

opinions and comments under videos on youtube. if you are watching us on tv, pick up your smartphone or phone and vote for the numbers. if you take the kremlin's nuclear threats seriously - 0800 211 381, not 0800-211-382. all calls to these numbers are available free, vote, at the end of the program we will sum up the results of this vote. mr. valery, here. yesterday , polish foreign minister radislaw sikorski made a statement about crimea, and our closest neighbor says that crimea is symbolic, important for russia and for putin, and strategically important for ukraine, so he does not see how the two countries can come to an agreement without demilitarization of the peninsula, and he proposes to transfer. crimea under un mandate for 20 years,

what does sikorsky say? we could hand over crimea under a un mandate to prepare a fair referendum after checking who are legal residents and so on, and we could delay it for 20 years. in response, the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine declared the inadmissibility of compromises regarding the status of crimea and the territorial integrity of ukraine. crimea is the center of gravity of the european security architecture, its restoration is possible only after the complete de-occupation of the entire territory of ukraine, including the ukrainian peninsula. how do you assess, mr. valery, sikorsky's statement, considering that the un is not a powerful organization now, whose mandate will be respected by the same russia. let me answer another question that they asked. in fact, such a statement. minister of legal affairs

of poland, you will not find in any public resource, except zmi, right? and why and because it was said at an evening meeting within the framework of one of the forums there, and as a discussion of various options. i simply do not want to make radyslav sekorsky an enemy of the ukrainian people, but i can say that in such discussions, even such respectable people can be wrong. i know, at least eh... with all his achievements and consistency, i know a case when i was part of this process there, and rosslav sikorsky made a mistake, in short, this is the 14th year, his council of the maidan, his arrival to push to we signed an agreement with not us, the people agreed to sign an agreement with yanukovych, and he then convinced that this was the only way out of the crisis, nothing like that, everything did not go as radislav sekorsky said, but as we said, it went so... and such

people are wrong, they are not very good at about our inner subtleties, despite the fact that i respect both him and his wife very much, that is, i have known them for many years, so don't make him an enemy, this is the first part, the second, since it has already become a discussion of the essence of the issue after a while, yes there referendum and everything else, this is the answer given by the ministry of foreign affairs, well, let's put it this way, russia is... already there in its own way, well, this issue does not take off in any way with no referendums there, you and i know that this is, in principle, playing along rather the russian yes position, than the ukrainian return of the crimea, so it is not necessary, i think that his to inflate why it happened like that, i will tell you what it was, first the downpour went, that the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelensky, behaves harshly with the poles, it appears in the polish press, and then suddenly it appears... and here it is

the representative of poland also does this at our meetings, that's it, i think that's how it started, this is an emotional informational duel, it will end like that, nothing will continue. but, if suddenly we hear such a position again officially, from anyone, from radisław sikorski, from the polish government, if it is confirmed that they call for such a line, then yes, i would answer correctly, diplomatically, but not everything is even in the statement of the ministry of foreign affairs, there you can make even clearer accents, this is an unacceptable position, it does not lead to... anything good, because it it is only pouring water into the mill of the russians in this situation, well, yes, those who say that in fact the crimea remained russian, this is also their position regarding this statement of sikorsky, they also reflected and said that there is no need for us

to spend there at all some more referendums, so that's it so far we have such a reaction, another important decision that awaits ukraine is the decision on... the permission of our western partners to strike with long-range weapons on the territory of the russian federation. last week, the president of the united states of america, joseph biden, met with the prime minister of great britain, kiir starmer, and before that , the secretary of state of the united states of america and the minister of foreign affairs of great britain visited ukraine and participated in the forum. in several forums that took place in ukraine, there was an expectation that after the meeting with the president of the united states of america and the prime minister of great britain, it will somehow be articulated by the position of these two countries, regarding

the decision, or regarding the decision of stormshedov alone, that these missiles can fly over the territory of the russian federation, and even the guardian wrote. that great britain has almost already made such a decision, or everything, everything is clear in this story, whether this decision is possible, but it can be articulated publicly already after these missiles fly over the territory of the russian federation. well, i wanted to i would still like to emphasize, sorry, that we are talking about long-range missiles. in fact , these are short-range missiles, such missiles, maybe a little less distance, we had, we simply already used them, such missiles, well, i mean point b, there, the same missiles that

were still produced there in small quantities before a large-scale invasion, that is, these are not new, not new missiles for ukraine, we have the right to use them more. that i think we very much hope that we will see in the near future more widely the use of ukrainian-made missiles with such a range, that is, a range of 300, 500 and up to 1000 km, this is a short range, i think that we have lost information, i read all our journalists, even the missiles, well, the range is correct, this is a comparison, but with that , what we... have today, but these are not short-range missiles, long-range missiles, i would think, they are long -range missiles, yes, above 5,500 km, the average range of missiles is 1005, in this interval, that is, what are we talking about we talk with partners, about the missiles that we have, we just

don't have enough of them, we are talking with our partners, we have formulated this presentation incorrectly at all, we constantly emphasized on... when i say, we, of course, i did not emphasize on this, but i say , we, the ukrainians, the presidents, others emphasized, give us further missiles to hit, but not further missiles, give us accurate humane rocket weapons, missiles are humane weapons, because they, as it was in this case, tarabets, po- mine, yes, in this parapets, warehouses, they definitely hit, well, they said, there are drones, well, i think, something seems to me that there was a missile there, so they definitely hit there, this is only my conclusion, i do not pretend that this was some kind of position, so that they do not say that i read it somewhere, no, i just saw the video, i saw an explosion similar to that from rockets, so 500 are already being used there

for 30 km, that is, we have our own, so nothing new, just the number is less, and the russians are using iskanders... they hit odesa, they are killing people, ours beat humanely, precisely in the warehouses, do not kill residents, and what are we talking about next, and what are we begging, what are we begging, from whom, that is, to... we should not beg, but just rush and throw everything into the production of these missiles of this type, and then no one would, well, it's done already, well , time has passed, and now, you know, what difference does it make, which missile will fly there to russia, one or the other, just the quantity is needed, and now, the quantity is an escalation, no, because the russians received iranian ballistic missiles, the russians are getting korean ballistic missiles what are we talking about i mean it's me i believe that this is the moment when we can speak harshly in private, because why harshly

, because when there was a real moment that some arguments worked, then i cannot understand, and now which arguments, no arguments, and which are red lines, he kursk, kursk region, entered the territory of russia, what other arguments can you have, there are no arguments, only it is not necessary to blow it all up in public, to blow it up there, and not... to just show the situation publicly, i think that it will actually be solved, well, because there are no real arguments that the americans and our partners had before, they are gone now, all those that were, have been closed, due to the unreasonable actions of russia, the increase of escalation on their part, now why i say that i emphasize once again, it is humane, this is a high-precision sniper missile weapon, ukraine needs... precisely such types of weapons, so that it is not a contact battle with a kalashnikov or even a javelin,

but a non-contact battle at a distance with uavs, with such missiles, with the same hymers, that is, this is what can somehow at least a little balance be established with the russians, and in principle, well, i know, we've been talking about it for a long time, of course, i won't reveal the secret here that... it's not something i made up there, our negotiators there don't talk, they talk, but for some reason, i think that in this matter we could act creatively, well, more creatively, in order to circumvent this inflexible political position, and now, i think, we will see it before the election day, and i think that already before the election day in the usa in november . well, i think that from the first days of november there, after the fifth, we simply saw the use of this type of

partner rockets, now the question is which quantity, right here not only the quality, there is the range, but the quantity, and by the way, the german taurus, well, what further arguments will chancellor scholz have to keep these missiles, that is, it seems to me that this is all a political decision, it is overripe, and in fact we will find out sometime in november. this is already an application, the european parliament turned to ukraine's western partners and asked, urged to immediately lift the restrictions on ukraine's strikes with western weapons on the russian federation, the speaker of the state duma of the russian federation, vyacheslav volodin, criticized this appeal to the european parliament and once again threatened the west with nuclear weapons. let's listen to what volodya said. just think what they are discussing, they are discussing the task of striking our

peaceful cities, moreover they are discussing, thinking that it will not affect them, it is not so, we will respond, and we have something to respond to, more powerful weapons are ready, sir valeria, they have been announcing their... powerful, more powerful weapons for so long, but judging by what cia director burns said about how he communicated with naryshkin in the 22nd year, at the end of the 22nd year, and warned the russians about the consequences of the use of nuclear weapons against ukraine, because such a threat was, as burns said, do they clearly understand in the kremlin what, what, what consequences will be the use of nuclear weapons, or ... tactical or strategic, any, and how will it end for the current regime in

russia? they understand everything perfectly, don't listen to what volodin is saying there or from the podium of the state duma, these are internal messages for them, there is a king, there is a boyar, and there are serfs, and serfs must live in this understanding, there the slaves are fed so many lies that they can't get over their heads. russia will not use any strategic missiles, it is obvious, for two reasons: firstly, the potential of russia is incomparable with the potential of the usa. together with britain there or, well, if it were comparable, everyone says that it will all be destroyed, there, in fact, russia knows that they are flying in them , one way or another, the missile itself, and what about the charges, they do not know at all , although, you know, these bots attack me when i comment that russia has not conducted nuclear tests , but i state once again, on

unlike the usa, which found a way to test without an actual explosion of a large-scale, nuclear warhead, russia does not have such technology, and therefore there are no normal tests of nuclear weapons in russia, without a normal test, no country can use nuclear weapons, except at such a moment when you there are hundreds of warheads flying there, only at this moment, already desperate, in another situation it will not be used, this is the first, second, why would they use nuclear weapons if they blew up the tile, that is, it flooded man-made with huge... consequences, well, in operationally, there is also an operation, then they have the zaporizhzhia station under control, which is constantly under threat, we do not know this, but the specialists there are constantly aware, the situations sometimes loom, then decrease, and when they hit our nuclear transformers stations, which then endanger

the normal operation of as, in the crimea, if the west, the crimean titan, or whatever it is called there now, is also a dangerous object, we had a russian invasion of 17 00 objects in 17 00 so dangerous on ours territory, yes, why should they, they first of all think about how to use it in reality, and not nuclear weapons, which they constantly threaten there, that is, nuclear weapons are a balance for china, it is for another , but it's definitely not for this one. and the second thing is that they know that if only they do it, even one tactical charge is used there, everything, they, them, they are over, they are over, putin knows this, that is, they do not have such comparable forces to withstand in such a confrontation, they were warned, so i believe that the threat is nuclear, it's in the course of the war

as we see it now, it's not something that doesn't exist, it exists, but the way it's inflated from the... fighting, you know, actually the paradox is that the russians have died now , i would say so, ten times more than the russians, only, only the military, only those who set foot on our land ten times more than would die from a few tactical nuclear warheads, you understand that they simply do not explain their to people, people do not know on what scale they die. there, so we have to give more information, don't follow their line, partners should explain the situation, i would now pay more attention to objects such as the zaporizhia nuclear plant, which are captured by the russians, this is a real threat. well, by the way, president zelenskyi today welcomed the resolution of the magathe, which confirms the need for ukraine to restore full

control over the zaporizhia nuclear power plant and the withdrawal of russian troops and personnel from... this plant, he reminded that nuclear safety is the first point of the peace formula, quoting the president zelenskyi, i am glad to see that today's resolution of the general conference of the magathe supports these important efforts, only thanks to collective determination and principled actions, we will be able to force the aggressor to stop blackmail and terror, - wrote zelenskyi on the social network x. mr. valery, is the resolution binding. .. magate to russia’s reaction, and can magate apply to russia and to rosatom, in particular , any sanctions, because we know that russia is building a lot of nuclear power plants around the world, and no one has yet imposed any sanctions on does not apply to dew, if i am not mistaken.

personal sanctions are imposed on dorosatom, there are one or two cases, but the correction is that rosatom somehow feels very uncomfortable in this situation, and the reason for not applying sanctions against rosatom is not the magat, let’s be fair, here are the decisions of many countries, and that among european countries and the usa, by the way, too, and this surprises me, because sanctions against ross should have been there a long time ago. now regarding the igas, they are already adopting the second such resolution in the un, they also mentioned these issues. magat is a structure of oonivsk. but the most interesting thing is that mr. grosti always says, it is not a question of how to leave the station, it turns out that we are at the level of a conference, that is, it is all announced when 150 members of the un gather, well 178 is a member of the magat, well, 150 have gathered now for the 68th, it seems, general conference

in vienna, so everything is fine, the magat can make such statements, and it is our task for ukraine to make as many such statements, resolutions, fixing documents as possible for two purposes, first, it is a constant process of pressure on until the release just in time. the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, because it is in danger due to the occupation now, first of all, and also the people who work there, the russians were not able to start their own there, to replace the ukrainians, and the people there keep it all professionals just so that it does not exploded, that is, everything has been going on for the third year now, so it's all very complicated, that's the question, and the second question is the responsibility for these crimes later, it still needs to be considered. and the convention on nuclear terrorism, that is, it still hasn't been reached, why hasn't it been reached? i will tell you very good an example, a resolution, the president stated, i see

the prime minister stated, everyone made statements, in fact, in fact, this is just an example when the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine works correctly, we must give credit to mr. tsymbalyuk, when he was in vienna, he dealt with this as a representative, and now, when we have an absolutely unjustified pause. with the appointment of a representative in vienna, he took it up from kyiv, and when, i think, the new minister is also visible, he paid attention to these issues, and the work began, they worked there week after week, under not easy conditions, i tell you let me remind you that there are still elections for another body of the magat, in addition to the general conference, there is still a board of governors, 11 new countries were elected, as far as i know, i met with these countries, then normal diplomatic work went on, so i have a big question, if we here we can do it, and the ministry of foreign affairs can, why do we have a delegation in the board of governors of the magathe that does not

cope with its tasks, as we see what can be achieved, why then, well, why let it be decided in the office, the minister of energy is in charge, drive a couple of times there in vienna, that's the point, you know, not that, well, the minister of energy has a task here in ukraine, we have winter. which we do not know how to pass, and the minister of energy is visiting vienna, i would, firstly, change, well, at least dzaparova, who is not present today, is no longer working, replace her with tsimbalyuk in the delegation of the council of governors, and secondly, i would consider everything - based on the results of the work, i would consider replacing the head of the delegation, this is a task that will increase efficiency, this is a specific example of how it worked well in this particular case, but the russians are working constantly. with money, the russian representative meets, has dinner, but, well, i don’t know, he has dinner there every week, ours can have dinner, only the ambassador can talk, and

we don’t have an ambassador, so here are simple questions, they add efficiency and should be resolved, i think that this issue is overdue, the manager should be a diplomat in the council, this is the first thing, and now at least give... the representative of the foreign ministry of pomagt more resources, work opportunities, he showed tsymbalyuk that he can achieve it, even with kyei. sir valery, at the very end of our long conversation, i would like to show you and the tv viewers a fragment from an interview with ukrainian pravda, the eu ambassador to ukraine, katarina maternova, who says that the realistic forecast is that ukraine can join. to the european union by the end of this decade. let's hear what she said. i have already said in an interview before, and i will repeat, that i believe that the goal

set by president michel, ukraine's accession to the eu by the end of this decade, is realistic. yes, i believe it is real, but intro to the eu, and it must be realized, is not only a technical process of membership negotiations, which, of course, is in itself. therefore, it must be ratified in the format required by each of the eu countries, and this always takes a certain amount of time, so during the 2004 enlargement, it took about a year and a half. well, that is, mr. valery, there are 6 years ahead, if, if we go by this term. that by the end of this decade there are six years for us to go through all the procedures for joining the european union, or whether we will go through

this is fast, given the situation... first, without joining nato or in some way guaranteeing the security of this umbrella from russia, there are no further prospects , there is no eu to help this situation, the eu is not involved in this, there are no effective levers in the security sphere, so i am against it i look calmly , on the contrary, i think that the prime minister's statements that we should enter by the end of next year. they sound more threatening to me than what mrs. maternova said that we have time, because in fact the path to the eu is i understand that we accept the rules of the european union, but still there must be some kind of adaptation, our farmers, many of our producers are simply not ready for this today, and politically just being in the eu, well, it is important, but when you have not ensured security , then it does not give anything, so i look at it calmly,

i think that there is closer. she is to mrs. maternova, yes, because this is just the budget of the european union, in order for there to be an expansion, the budget must be calculated, you understand, and the 30th year is just tied to the procedures of the european union, that's all, but what our people are declaring there, that next year in two years, these are absolutely unrealistic plans, that's why i'm worried about the political part, yes, that is, in principle , it is correctly said that it is necessary that there there was ratification, but if it is meant that... for ukraine to unilaterally accept all political demands, starting from historical memory, starting from there, to give up their heroes, that, or there, as the hungarians demand something new every time , well, this, you know, this is the kind of blackmail that we are we should not let the negotiations with the eu on the sections of accession to the european union be used as a political tool for our neighbors, i would

say so, because... these are neighbors, i.e. poland and hungary, i.e. slovakia, we will see all this, but there will be new liras, leaders, there will be politics, elections, and we will constantly be kept with this, you know, bait, what do you want in the eu, then let's give it to us, you need it, so i would now emphasize did for nato, for security, told our partners in the eu, listen, eu integration is a two-way street. movement, and let's go, ukraine is in a hurry, taking its time, calmly working on the negotiating position, we have made political decisions, ukraine will be in the eu, it is a candidate, we will calmly work on the working bureaucratic agenda, and nato is an issue that needs to be resolved in this or next year, that is the key question. thank you, mr. valery, for the conversation, it was valery chalyly, diplomat, plenipotentiary and

extraordinary ambassador of ukraine. friends, we continue to work live espresso tv channel. i would like to remind you that throughout our broadcast we conduct a survey and ask you whether you take the kremlin's nuclear threats seriously. please forgive ukraine as well. so, on youtube it's pretty simple, yes, no, and there's also a function to leave your comment on it, that's the first. well, let's look at the intermediate results. television survey 33% yes, 67% - no, we will continue this same survey in the second part of our program, 15 minutes after the news broadcast from our colleagues from the bbc, we will continue the verdict, we will have on air marina danilyuk yarmalayeva and bohdan butkevich, the traditional journalistic friday club is waiting for you, we are taking a break, stay on our channel, we are watching bbc.

a new phase of the war in the middle east, israel announces the killing of the commander of hesla as a result of an attack on beirut, what is known about the new escalation and what. it will have consequences, we will talk about it for the next 15 minutes on the bbc, in inna kosynska's studio. the most intense blows to the border during the year of the war. this is how they are already talking about a large-scale israeli airstrike in southern lebanon. so that night israel struck lebanon and, as he claims, weapons depots and more than 100 rocket launchers of hezbollah were targeted. which, according to the israeli military, were ready to launch rockets.
