zelensky's visit to america is a visit to pre-election america. 150,000 ukrainian votes, they can actually decide the fate of the entire presidential campaign. who was this meeting more important for trump or for zelensky? he interferes in the electoral process in the united states. yes, anu let's negotiate tanu agree. trump himself does not understand what his peace plan is. zelensky sides with the democrats and supports garis. this is serious. ukrainian team, right? you

are watching radio svoboda's weekly video podcast, state situation. today we will talk about why trump did not meet with zelensky, whether kyiv is really betting on kamala garis, as donald trump claims, and whether you want to believe it or not, voting in the us elections has already begun. well, it will help us understand the state situation, the american election situation. professor of bellaire university in texas, serhii kudelya. sergey, congratulations. greetings rastoslav. well, the international media called this week, i quote, the most important diplomatic week of president zelensky. he is in the un. he in america presents his victory plan, which he developed with his own hands. but zelensky's current visit to america is a visit to pre-election america - this is an america that already has election battles. has the voting really started, sergey? yes, indeed, rossyslav, last week in four states, including

virginia, citizens can mail their ballots, and this option will appear next week for most citizens of the united states, and according to various estimates, about half of the voters by election day, that is, they will be able to by november 5 to vote and will vote in these elections. clearly, if the visit is to... america, which is in the election race, then everything matters, even small details. so, it was noticed that volodymyr zelenskyi began his visit to america with a visit to the plant for the production of 15. projectiles for ukraine in the town of scranton, pennsylvania. the message was clear: military aid to ukraine, it is important for america itself, it is important for american workers. but the defense plant was chosen precisely in the state of pennsylvania, which is very important, which is fought for, literally kamala harris and donald trump are fighting. it

belongs to the so-called changing states. this is what, by the way, the reuters agency wrote. zelenskyi visited the defense. venture in pennsylvania with democratic gov. josh shapiro, a harris ally. the move angered some of trump's allies, given that the visit took place in a battleground state . and now trump himself is trump at a rally in western pennsylvania, telling supporters that zelensky supports democracy. i will quote. i think that zelenskyi is the best seller in history every time he comes to ... our country, he leaves with 60 billion dollars, he really wants them, the democrats, to win this election, but i will do it differently, i will bring peace, - says donald trump. and donald trump does not meet with volodymyr zelenskyi, this is a serious failure of the ukrainian team, isn't it? this is a faster

indicator of how difficult it will be to build relations with the united states if trump comes to power. already in recent days we have heard accusations from some republicans about zelenskyi in the fact that he is interfering in the electoral process in the united states, and here it is important to explain on what basis they are making these accusations, when zelensky came to pennsylvania, he was met by josh shapiro, this is not only the democratic governor, this is the face of the campaign of camila harris, shapiro has been considered as one of the candidates for... vice presidents on camila harris' team, he's been considered as a possible member of camila harris' administration, so this is a very powerful political figure in this campaign, and shapiro has accompanied zelenskyi during the whole trip, he even posted information on his twitter in the social network that about 150

thousand ukrainians live in pennsylvania, and pennsylvania is the second state with... in terms of size, in terms of the number of ukrainians in the united states, so it was a very direct hint that this number of ukrainians could actually support kamela haris. why is this number of ukrainians important in pennsylvania? well, quite simply, because trump lost the election last time in pennsylvania by a margin of only 70 00 votes, and the first time he ran in '16, he won by a margin of 5000. votes, that's 150,000 ukrainian votes, they can actually decide the results of the election in pennsylvania, and since pennsylvania is a key election state in general in this campaign , it is quite likely that they can decide the fate of the entire presidential campaign, which is why trump and many republicans react very emotionally to the appearance of zelensky in this state and see it as an attempt

to convince ukrainians to support the democrats. that is, to some republicans, in particular. trump it is possible that, as they believe, zelensky sides with the democrats and supports garis. yes? yes, and in particular, we also heard the statements of volodymyr zelenskyi on the eve of his visit to the united states, in which he quite directly indicated that he considers donald trump's position on peace negotiations with russia to be unclear. he said that trump himself does not understand which ones. his peace plan, he questioned in general the position of the republicans in relations with ukraine, well , i think that this was the wrong signal at the beginning of such an important visit zelenskyi to the usa. to whom was this meeting more important, for trump or for zelensky? who lost more from the fact that this meeting did not take place? well, for volodymyr zelensky

, this meeting was of a very important symbolic nature, because... what it should demonstrate, in particular to our western allies, is that in the event of the transfer of power to donald trump, the support of the united states for ukraine will remain, will be preserved on the same level, and that zelensky and trump will be able to get along if they meet even before the elections, it is quite likely that they will be able to come to an understanding even after the elections, so for volodymyr zelensky this was an important signal to our western allies. in the fact that they should continue to keep calm and support ukraine and consider. the russian army continues to advance in the pokrov direction, despite the efforts of the armed forces to stop them, they occupy the cities. dibstate analysts

predict assaults on the city of hirnyk, and the military there complain about poor fortifications, there is nowhere to hold positions. what are the threats to the armed forces in the pokrovsky direction and why is the month late every month we continue to hear about bad fortifications that can cause the loss of ukrainian cities. who should fix this situation? why hasn't this happened yet? this is svoboda ranok, my name is kateryna nekrecha, we are starting, join us! almost every day, the ukrainian general staff reports on the tense situation in the pokrovsky area and writes about repulsed attacks by the russian army, as well as about enemy assaults that were successfully stopped. the advance of russian forces continues. russian troops managed to occupy the city of ukrainy, he reported analytical portal deepstate at the beginning of last week. and so... kozhmarinivka was informed about this by debstate this weekend. analysts also write daily about the advance towards large cities on this part of the front, i.e. towards pokrovsk, selydovo, kurakhovo.

the american institute for the study of war writes about the advance of the russian army near the railway line south of selidovoy in the direction of krasniy yar, as well as about the probable partial occupation of krutoy yar. military expert of information resistance kostyantyn mashovets says that the pokrovsk direction... continues to remain a difficult section of the front and draws attention to two points of success of the russian army, which, as mashovets says, are alarming: firstly, the russian forces would have succeeded in crossing the zhurafka river east of pokrovsk, which was a natural obstacle on the way army of the russian federation. secondly, the involvement of the russian army between tsukurin and selidov on the railway, which leads north to pokrovsk, can be considered a tactical success of the russian forces. at the same time, as mashovets says, attempts by the russian federation to break through to silidove over the past week were unsuccessful and the armed forces still have a chance to turn further quote: pokrovsky direction to destroy the dreams of the russian

command. now analysts of the deep state portal are predicting assaults on the city of hirnyk in the pokrovsky direction. the russian military came close to it, to it at a distance of 600 m to 15 km, and here is the territory between the occupied lands and a settlement in the syria zone. russian troops are also shelling the city more intensively. deep state publishes a photo of fortifications near the miner, or rather their absence. the pictures are said to have been given to them by the military from this direction attempts were made to build engineering fortification systems, even platoon support points were built, but the quality of these fortifications is disappointing. you can't hold the defense for long in such positions, writes dipstate. and most importantly, the situation is approximately the same. the entire pokrovsky direction, analysts note.

my colleague roman smollyar spoke with an officer of the 15th operational brigade of the national guard of ukraine about the strengthening of the defense forces of ukraine in the pokrovsky direction, who should build them, as well as the combat situation in this direction vitaly milovydym. this memory is fighting in the pokrovsky direction, namely in the area of ​​the city of selidove. let's hear what the military has to say. fighters of one of the divisions complained about low-quality engineers. fortifications near the city of girnyk, the deep state monitoring project reported. what is the general situation with the defense structures in the pokrovsky direction, who should be responsible for them? with regard to the quality of fortifications, the conduct of combat operations, unit commanders are interested at the local level of each level in to check and to think over reserve positions in case of which, well, if necessary , to withdraw one's forces, so how will the defense be organized in this direction

and the movement to reserve positions, if they are prepared, it is also the duty of the commanders on the ground to make a decision and prepare these reserve positions, military engineers are involved, that is, there is a plan according to which fortification equipment is being built, a line of defense is being sought. and in the area of ​​your responsibility, mr. vitaly, was it possible to stop the advance of russian forces and how? have the tactics of russian assaults changed at all? well, selidovo, kurakhovo, they were stopped at selidovo, and there were very powerful attacks, these are frontal attacks, and there they attracted several hundred servicemen of the russian federation and stormed our positions there . due to the specificity of the donetsk agglomeration, the presence of very large and wide forest strips. and

settlements that flow from each other, this gives the opportunity to move slowly, to move forward and gain a little bit of a foothold somewhere, they are in the areas of concentration there, they constantly conduct some kind of small accumulation and then in larger groups they try to storm, in some directions they use more armored vehicles, in some less, that is, now the bet is on moving through the territories. and create uncomfortable logistical or other situations similar to an operational environment, when the provision of units in the area of ​​task performance becomes very difficult, and this is exactly what happened in our direction, i.e. this at the beginning of september, there was an attempt to attract there for quick maneuvers, these were armored personnel carriers and several tanks,

there were no massive mechanized offensives. were destroyed, so until recently, literally the last two days, they from the southern selidovo are trying to attract two tanks, two bmps and buggies, on which they tried to advance very quickly to our positions, were destroyed, a number of our units were involved there , that is , the tank was stopped there by means of a fire impression by the anti-tank javelin forces artillery was used to destroy the infantry that tried to rush. mr. vitali, military experts, in particular on radio liberty broadcasts, noted that the russian forces use less armored vehicles and more infantry assaults, is this true and how often do such assaults occur and how many infantry are involved, on

average. the number involved in the assaults there or directly to the platoon, maybe a little more, they try to deliver their infantry there from the area of ​​their concentration as quickly as possible to the highest landing in dense plantings there at a distance that they don't understand that we control, but we don't have the means to get there, and from there they are already trying to walk at the expense of forest plantings. are already small, small groups, but they do not move constantly during the day and night, the attempted offensive that took place the day before yesterday, there was an attempted assault at the expense of bmp, two servicemen of the russian federation were taken prisoner, so the guys perform all combat tasks, deter , are already in position. we also sought comment of the kurakhiv city military administration

regarding the construction of the fortification. around hirnyk, but they refuse to comment on this topic, they say that only the military can talk about it, but they say that no one sat idly by and talk about the city of hirnyk itself. at the beginning of the war, on february 24, 22, there were almost 10-500 people, townspeople, and 1,950 children living in hirnyk. at this time now. there are no children in the constellation, well, maybe someone returned, about whom we do not know, but they took everyone according to the lists, checked with educational institutions, with pre-school institutions, there are no children there, at the moment there are somewhere, well , according to our calculations, about 800 people still live in the mine, there are shops working, and

water, well, we are for... my personal opinion is that everything there as it should be, ugh, we analyze everything that is known now in our video, serhii sgurets, expert from vysok, director of the information and consulting company defense express joined the freedom mornings, i congratulate you, thank you for joining. good morning, greetings to you, greetings to our viewers. you stated that the advance of the forces of the russian army the pokrovsk direction was stopped, because they went further south, realizing that

they had appeared at pokrovsk. reserve of the ukrainian forces, can you please explain
