to the usa in an interview with the new yorker. the president of ukraine, in particular, suggested that trump does not know how to end the war and rejected the proposal of his partner jaydy vance to freeze the conflict along the contact line. or maybe it was a premeditated strategy of the trump camp: to draw ukraine into the american elections and accuse the democrats of foreign interference. the situation seemed very bad, but in the end the meeting between trump and zelensky in ... still took place, thanks to which it is not fully understood, only what is known about it agreed at the last moment, and the ukrainian leader was even forced to extend his visit to the united states for a day. do you think that ukraine should give its territories to russia? we'll see what happens. what do you plan to say to zelenskyi? peace must be achieved, we need peace, we must end the death and destruction. don't you think so? will it

be bad? these statements were made in the new york skyscraper trump tower, one of the official residences of the former president, on thursday evening, already on friday morning here zelensky arrived. this time, trump praised the ukrainian leader, his marriage during the war and his neutral stance during the impeachment proceedings against trump back in 2019, but continued his rhetoric about the need to quickly stop the war. "i think we have a common vision that the war in ukraine must be stopped, putin must not win, and ukraine must win. we have a very good relationship, and i also have a good relationship with president putin. i think when we win , we will solve all this very soon. i hope we have a better relationship with you, of course, but it takes two to tango."

the meeting lasted an hour, after its completion , trump and zelenskyy again appeared in the press. the republican candidate said that he was in favor of a fair deal, but again avoided specifics and publicly accepted zelenskyi's invitation to come to ukraine. once, in any case, the ukrainian leader managed to avoid the worst scenario of a tough confrontation with one of the presidential candidates. today , the meeting with donald trump was very productive and detailed, i am very grateful a packed long, extremely important week in america. meetings with another camp of american politicians at first glance went better. president biden announced a new security package worth 2,400 million dollars, and also guaranteed that ukraine will receive all the reserved 8 billion dollars of aid by the end of his presidency. the zsu will be provided with

join stand of weapon winged aerial bombs with a range of up to 110 km. let me be blunt: russia will not win the war, russia will not win. ukraine will win, and we will continue to stand by you. even more decisive in her statements was the vice president and democratic candidate kamala garis. she promised to seek the victory of ukraine in the event that she becomes president, and rejected the ideas of trump and vance about peace at any cost. some in my country would force ukraine to surrender a significant part of its sovereign territory, would demand that ukraine accept neutrality and renounce security agreements with other countries. these proposals are no different from putin's proposals. these are not proposals for peace, but capitulation this is dangerous and unacceptable.

confident statements and new aid packages in the white house cautiously assessed the victory plan that zelensky brought to the united states to try to turn the tide of the war, which, according to many observers, is currently not in ukraine's favor. biden did not give a public assessment of the document, and white house officials, according to information from the american media, were skeptical of the plan, saying that it was more of a set of requests without strategic depth. volodymyr zelenskyi also... will not bring permission from america to strike deep into russia with western weapons. biden has not yet dared to remove another taboo. presumably, the current us president will discuss this issue again with the leaders of germany, france and great britain. the ramstein-style meeting is scheduled to take place on october 12 in germany, and it is unlikely that the current us administration will make drastic moves, at least until november 5. and there is an american election. can take

the bandwagon of world politics on a new, unpredictable trajectory. by stopping putin in ukraine, the west can avert the start of the third world war. a column about signs of the rapid approach of global war was published by columnist george veal in the washington post. he explains that putin will not stop at ukraine and will continue his offensive to the west. the author mentions the tripartite pact of 1940 between germany, italy and japan, which is now being followed by cooperation between russia, china, iran and north korea. all these countries use their weapons against ukraine. george weale is convinced that the west must make more efforts to defeat putin, otherwise the civilized world will face a tragic defeat. meanwhile, china handed over a number of drones to russia to test them in

ukraine. this is stated in the material of the british publication the times. anonymous officials in a comment to journalists confirmed that the agreement was concluded last year. however, they did not disclose it. names of chinese companies. insiders also confirmed that russia has created a program in china to develop and produce long-range strike drones that could also be used against ukraine. the alliance was concerned about the alleged gunmen union and conduct consultations on this matter. meanwhile, at the front, the russians continue to press in the direction of kharkiv in the liptsi district, near tikhi. and vovchanska. on september 24, gur was informed that the vovchan aggregate plant had been released. the occupiers continue to advance in the donetsk region. pokrovsk, kurakhove and ugledar remain the most difficult areas of the front. in the direction of pokrovsk, the enemy is advancing near

vodyno, staromai and in the steep yar. this is evidenced by deep state data. fierce fighting took place near a coal mine in southern donetsk region. there was information about a threat. encirclement of the city by russian troops. however, on thursday, fighters of the 72nd separate mechanized brigade said that ugledar was under the control of the armed forces of ukraine. also, our troops continue the offensive operation in kurshchyna. the issue of mobilization and demobilization of military personnel remains one of the most acute challenges for ukraine. despite numerous appeals from the military and their families. and public organizations do not yet have a concrete plan for demobilization, but there are cases of voluntary abandonment there are more and more parts. tetyana golonova understood the intricacies of this complex issue. the demobilization of military personnel,

who have been on the front line for almost three years without change, is one of the most pressing and debatable topics in ukraine. on the one hand, the armed forces are facing a shortage of personnel. composition against the background of active pressure from russian troops. on the other hand, our soldiers are exhausted and need rest and recovery. discussion of the maximum service life began in early 2024 during the consideration of the mobilization law. however, the relevant provisions were excluded from the document, which entered into force on may 18. since then, there have been very few public statements regarding demobilization. we have no clear ones. service because we have problems with mobilization, and i will say that there recently it has gotten a little worse than it was before, and i have a question, how can we define these clear terms of service, which i also advocate and yes he prescribed it himself in his bill on motivation, if we have no one to replace him.

in september 2022 , a petition appeared on the president's website with a request to demobilize at the request of military personnel who had served a year, this... request was commented on at the same time by oleksiy reznikov, who held the position of minister of defense. he stated that if a million people are fighting and they need to be demobilized, then instead, it is necessary to recruit and train a million. exactly one year ago , the new minister of defense rustem umyerov spoke about demobilization. he stated that this mechanism can be applied only after the end of the war. hope appeared when the military command agreed to include the norm of demobilization after continuous 36-month service in the new... together with the ministry of defense, we agreed on the figure of 36 months, hoping for two points: first, that there will be no escalation at the front, this is one time, and secondly,

the most important thing is that these people will be replaced by someone after 36 months, and this is already the government that has undertaken, let's say so, to implement this law, i think that they clearly understand the possibilities of our state, i hope that, after all, in 30-6 months we will manage with a task for... to replace those people who are really in extremely difficult conditions. in february 2024, the verkhovna rada adopted the bill on mobilization in the first reading. in that version of the document , there was still a provision on demobilization, but before the second reading in april, such a norm was excluded, as oleksandr zavitnevich, the head of the national security committee, later said , the norm on demobilization was removed because there was one situation at the front during the drafting of the draft law: at the time of its adoption already completely different, and so far the legislators cannot find common ground

denominator and make a decision, the hardest part is for active military personnel and their families. if you take six-month contracts, it is morally easier than coming in for a year, two, the way the guys are fighting now, which, well, they don’t change, just, well, that is, but... i won back six months here, came home, rested , well, recovered, and you can go again. and since we don't have a clear framework for when there will be demobilization, or rotation, or replacement, well, that is, it is very difficult. recently, the commander of the air reconnaissance department of the 56th separate of the mariupol motorized infantry brigade, serhiy gnesdilov said that he voluntarily left his unit after 5 years of service. this step, in his opinion, should draw attention to important problems, in particular, the lack of a clear policy

on demobilization. according to him, during the 11 years of the war with russia, society and the authorities did not find the strength to seriously and honestly talk about the complex realities of the protracted war. when i joined the army 5 years ago, for some reason i believed that it was important for the country. that i was needed where i was and i was doing what i had to do to do, 5 years of impeccable service, but total no, total uncertainty, how many years of my life i have to give to the country, it depresses and kills, in fact. more than 100,000 servicemen have voluntarily left their units since the beginning of 2022. the military lawyer of the center for providing support to veterans and

their families, roman lykhachov, announced the statistics on the kyiv-24 tv channel. he also noted that 20-30 people appear at the same time in some cases of szh. according to the sbi lawyer, there are currently no resources to investigate these criminal proceedings. the question of demobilization hung in the air, because russia's brutal war against our country continues. and the pace of mobilization of new people to the army does not meet the existing needs of the defense forces of ukraine. tatyana golonova, espresso tv channel. the village of posad pokrovske in the kherson region has become a shield for southern cities since the beginning of the full-scale war. for almost nine months, the front line passed through it. fierce battles were taking place hundreds of meters away. a picturesque village, the occupiers literally... from the ground up. in 2023, people started to return home, because they were promised that

their housing would be rebuilt. natalya stareprava saw how people live there now. we lived very well before the war, we had everything, as they say, and kept the cow, and the hen, and the grandchildren were nursed, but they took away, as they say, old age from us, and youth and youth from the children, they took away all. it just hurt more, boiled over, because we had already thought, we had already built a house, we will live, as they say, not longing, babysitting, raising children, waiting for the next generation, but everything was destroyed, it was taken from us all hopes, expectations, i don't even know how to say it, ms. marina found a full-scale war in her native village, lived in a cellar for a while, but realized that it was dangerous to stay, i stayed, i have a cow, i have... a heifer , i have a farm, my mother went with us, but i have to, i say,

identify the cow somewhere, well, she was sitting in the cellar, and the neighbor’s boy is already running, the neighbor says, that’s marina, and get out of here, and why are you sitting, so the cow remained in the barn, and the heifer remained, well, people got in touch, thank you very much, when when she returned, she did not recognize her native yard, as a result of shelling, mrs. maryna's house was completely destroyed. i had a bath here, well, in short, there was also water here, well, there is no boiler, that’s all there was an arrival here, i have a satellite dish here, maybe they thought, then some kind of radar or something was thrown here. i don't know, it 's already a cry from the soul, do you believe it, but it was so cozy here, the tile is left, it's a pity, it's a pity that it was taken from us, the village lived in us, people kept a lot of cows, in tractors sowed us a lot, here we always had vegetables, we always had everything, well, as

the gardens were planted, in the village of posad pokrovske in the kherson region, not a single house survived, the front line passed here, and the russians tried to start the village from the face of the earth, ms. olena also remembers her house with trepidation. there was a house, my parents built it, we built our future here, i grew up here, my daughter, my daughter grew up, my grandchildren didn’t have to grow up, but they were left without a house, it’s a pity, lunchtime, painful, because they arrived in one day, they destroyed everything in our life, and before the war, my husband and i did major repairs in the house ourselves, they did everything, we had a very good floor, but we did everything with windows, as we thought, everything would be fine here, we built this fence ourselves, but we invested our money here, as they say, and that's all, well, you see, well, we didn't

we are upset, because we have to live on, like all our fellow villagers, the woman and her family... had to flee from heavy fighting, when they returned, instead of their native house, they saw only ruins, volunteers, - says mrs. olena, still help with food and with the necessary materials, so that at least the locals could live somewhere, they were given modular houses that resemble tents for flower pots. arranged in such a way that we brought everything here, pass, pass, divided the bedroom. and the kitchen, if it’s hot, they gave us a fan, we blow, if it’s cold, see what kind of battery we have, then we warm up, well, if it’s -40 in winter, then we won’t warm up, people started to return to the village in the spring of 2023, because they were promised, that they will build new houses for them, we were here all the time, because

here, here i grew up here, i was born here, i grew up here, my children grew up here, my granddaughter was born here, i want to go home, i said let even nothing will happen, but i will come home, i know that this is my home, this is my country, and i am needed here, i am needed here, you know, as my grandmother used to say, where i was born, there i agreed, the post of pokrovske of the chornobayiv community was included to the experimental state project, under this program... to build a completely new village. the first 130 houses were to be restored by april 2024. when we arrived in the last week of september 2024 , we saw neither erected houses nor builders. what remained was a landfill and a prison people without a roof over their heads.

our village allocated a very large amount, of course, but where is it, where is this money, where is it? they started there, but even if you finish it, you have already started something, the village has been under construction for an hour, they said that by the 25th year, the whole village will be finished, but it will be finished by the 30th, at mama mia’s, it’s often like this here, and it happens, we have already gotten used to it , there is only a pile of bricks left on the site of mrs. nina's house, they cannot rebuild her house, because she lacks all the necessary documents, she says that it is impossible to winter in a modular house, so she is waiting, when they will build her a temporary house from wooden boards, we have such an organization here, these believers bring wooden houses to us, put them up, and then people live like that, they brought a dog house, for which they gave her to us

they brought us, as it is hot in the summer and cold in the winter, our community, they don't need us... they don't need us, absolutely, we don't need anyone. another problem in the village is the lack of gas and even water. the pipes were supposedly laid, but the project stopped there. on the opposite side of the village, where mrs. nina lives, there is water, because it is her people taken from the water tower. it's good that at least the electricity is done. it's a pity that there is no gas, because you see, all the pipes are completely broken. from water, it is very difficult that there is no water, because water is the main thing, well, we have a small well, well, no, sometimes there is water, sometimes it is not, but this year we also tried to sit in the garden. we dug potatoes, we planted tomatoes, we planted zucchini, cucumbers, well, we have already harvested a little, that is, we are asking ourselves how to live our lives, i tried

to advance it a little or how, well, to be honest, i i called the hotline, i think, if something is needed there, then help these people of ours to make progress here, well, i’m looking for something, i don’t know, they said, there will be water, everything will be, there will be water, there will be some chicken running around the yard, there will be some cow, there will be something. natalya starapra... oscar janson. espresso tv channel. this is how our team saw this week. i, iryna koval, was with you. take care of yourself. the espresso library presents the book the marshall plan. dawn of the cold war. the marshall plan is a program of economic assistance. european states after the second world war, and the marshall plan is not only history, it is the key to understanding how to turn the destroyed ukraine into a prosperous country. the marshall plan is a book

secondly, we have an absolutely wild case of a huge amount of money, when at the beginning of the week, everyone, like all, almost all of our colleagues in the media, in social networks, was talking about the fact that , they say, the ministry of foreign affairs has already reached the point which appointed the official ambassador of the ukrainian ku'. in new york to alina grossu, i think you 've heard this news, well, i'll tell you right away why it caused such, such a raging reaction, because alina grossu, well, let's just say, is not the singer that many people see a suitable person for this position, and so there was outrage, and what is most regrettable for us, to me, that many media persons... wrote about this without checking the information, without sending a request to the ministry of foreign affairs, and therefore it spread everywhere, what our state has already come to

the point of appointing... anyone to such important positions to represent ukrainian culture in such an important place, in such an important place, in such an important country, but of course everything became clear quickly enough, if you look at the reaction of the ministry of foreign affairs , well, it is obvious that she was a little annoyed, although we we know, diplomats know how to hide their irritation, in particular, but let's hear it. let's see, let's remind ourselves what the reaction of the ministry of foreign affairs was already in the evening, when it rained throughout the day. we don't know where the information came from that singer alina grosu got a diplomatic post in new york. given the resonance of this information in zmi, we must officially clarify that alina grosu does not hold any full-time or part-time positions in the system of bodies of the diplomatic

service of ukraine. regarding the implementation of diplomatic or consular functions? somehow, well , many people who then began to make excuses or explain why, why they took this information as reliable, they began to say, listen, we are already so used to some completely wild appointments that have been going on for a long enough time, that we were simply accustomed to it, and we will not understand it absolutely... nothing, on the one hand, it is true, there is a kind of such an explanation, but on the other hand, we must always understand that no matter what someone there teaches us, we always have to check the information, especially when it concerns mockers, and that's why it's our hat, of course, and i'll just say that the case is wild even for those, well, when you dive into it and understand who exactly appointed alina grossa in new york as the ukrainian ambassador.. .

culture, then it becomes a little awkward, because it was really appointed in a peculiar way, but it is important to understand who exactly did it, it was done by a certain doctor sima kakaretnaya, now we can look at her, which, well, i took photos from her instagram what she is regularly teaches there herself, the fact is, here she is now in a green jacket, the fact is... that, if you look at sima kakaretnaya's social networks, this is the same woman in red who was standing with her in the video published by alina grosu stage and nominated her or offered her the position of ambassador of ukrainian culture, you see, ms. sima is standing with another ambassador of culture from another country, if you look at her social networks, you will get the impression that this lady

about... just goes to many different events, taking pictures with different people, is photographed, for example, against the background of something, for example, we saw how she was photographed against the background, behind the tribune, you know, it is quite common to observe such people who, for example, like to take photos with various celebrities, with, well, not so famous people , just more or less public, often they ask to take a joint... photo with those they don't know at all, it's just that they think it's some more or less famous person, let me take a picture with them, then we'll see how you can use it, and then we see some posts in the social networks of these people with the publication of this photo for absolute friendship with them, for example, they took a photo with svyatoslav vakarchuk, here a person can write: look, here i am, here is my friend, we

went somewhere there with him, he was telling me something , and then in this way these people can create some kind of public reputation for themselves and continue to use it and participate in some events, for example, and present themselves as some official person and so on and so on, but here of course i saw such people, here they are valued a little less than , for example, in the united states, there... the family was invited, she even went on stage, and the fact that she announced alina grosa as the ambassador of ukrainian culture in the united states, that means nothing at all, it just some kind of half-freak act, yes, which is most likely at this party, and it was, it was such a reception of the mayor of new york at his house that it meant nothing, but we got it all right. let's make

it clearer to you.
