but there is another downside to the capture of the coal miner, the main downside is that it made it possible to have full fire control by artillery of the section of the railway from donetsk to volnovakha, that is, the railway through volnovakha may resume its work in the near future, logistics, railway logistics may start working for the russian occupiers it is through volnovakha to the south of the zaporozhye region. in the first place, and this is a negative factor from the occupation of the coal mine, although we reserve the possibility of a fire impact on this site, using, for example, m142 haimars or long-range missiles of the atakam stormshed type and scarepgdzh. mr. oleksandr, another direction that appeared in the armed forces of ukraine on august 6, 2024, the course direction, the ukrainian army has been in... the russian federation for two months,

literally half a month ago , information appeared in the russian propaganda media that that putin allegedly demanded from his troops to liberate kurshchyna by october 1, as we can see, this did not happen, but what can you say about the prospects of staying of the ukrainian army in kurshchyna, and most importantly, the possible deployment of units of the armed forces of ukraine in other neighboring ukraine. regions of the russian federation? i will start answering the last question, if you do not mind, then it is quite likely. we can now talk about the fact that russia is not capable of defending itself, and when it is faced with such threats, threats, it begins to reflect on this in a panic, and we can see from the kurdish side. oblast, which before the very beginning of

the ukur operation by the forces of the defense of ukraine, there was a group of about 10,000, now it's almost 40,000, that's what has been increased during this period, and they continue to increase this group, ah, by the end of october, it will be increased to 50,000, that is a resource diversion, they they try quantitatively neither with tactics nor with the strategy of conducting hostilities. namely, they are trying to solve the problem with the number, and we see that it is the second month, and the problem has not been solved, and the average static indicator of maintaining the control zone, it was and remains within the range of 1100-1300 km, despite even some kind of counteroffensive there, all the same, the defense forces of ukraine, while the russians are trying to counteroffensive somewhere and return some areas under their control, the defense forces of ukraine are starting...

to deploy offensive actions in new areas, expand their control zone, and therefore i do not at all exclude the fact that we have the opportunity to open another front, another location, and this may be some really unexpected or quite predictable area, but in which the russians will not be ready to resist, will lose a large number of square kilometers of this territory, and then in a panic and in an emergency mode they will try to somehow correct this situation precisely by continuing to withdraw there quantitatively superior forces, which will quantitatively outweigh precisely the defense forces of ukraine. mr. oleksandr, i have another question about the actual weapons and long-range weapons that are used and can be used.

ukrainian defenders in the territory of the russian federation, but as for other weapons that were given to us by foreigners and our western partners, we use them in the kursk region, for according to forbes, the armed forces of ukraine use their most modern tanks in kurdish operations, these are swedish tanks and german leopard 2 a6, and this... emphasizes the importance for ukraine of capturing this territory, despite the risk of losing valuable equipment, as forbes writes. the article claims that the russians knocked out at least one of about 20 tanks, but a four-way meeting of the leaders of germany, france, great britain and the united states is scheduled for october 12 in germany, and there they will obviously consider the issue with which zelensky came with the fair to of the united states of america, in relation to...

obtaining permission to strike on the territory of the russian federation with long-range western weapons, do you think, can this quadrilateral meeting with... this issue and fundamentally decide that the ukrainians can use these weapons in strikes on the territory russia? this is very difficult diplomatic work, because this is a political issue for the usa itself, it is its internal political issue, which is primarily related to the elections that will take place. that is, what they will have to do is to give joseph an opportunity biden, who is retiring, and... to make such a gesture and give permission to ukraine to actually do something like this before he leaves office, he, well, this is a kind of swan

song, and he goes in peace, or to give the opportunity to the next president usa, be it kamala harris or donald. to take the first step, to make the first such foreign policy decision, which would have the least resistance and the least criticism from both sides, both the democratic and republican parties, and both democrats and republicans are interested in this, so everything will depend on what will be most important now for the domestic political perspective of the americans, huh? to fulfill the obligation to take such a step with respect to the retiring president of the united states, or in fact, in fact to give this opportunity to the next president, new or old

new, that's what it will depend on, mr. alexander, while we were talking, with the first satellite images from borys hlebsk appeared, but they are not detailed, i understand. these images, and now we will show that the traces of fires are visible in the satellite image, according to experts who have already commented on these satellite images pictures, more detailed pictures are needed in order to assess the consequences of the impact, but it can be seen there that there were some fires, the only question is what was hit as a result and in what way, well, but that already... i think it will become known literally tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, that's for sure. another topic, a continuation, or rather, this is the same topic, regarding long-range weapons, former cia director mike pompeo spoke out at a security conference in london

against restrictions that the united states of america and other allies have imposed on the use ukraine long-range western weapons. let's hear what mike pompeo said. the policy of imposed restrictions has become harmful, the inability to hit military targets on the other side of the conventional strip seems to me militarily unwise and strategically stupid, it would not create any additional risks. well, mike pompeo was, let me remind you, the secretary of state of the united states of america, but here is this indecision. in the adoption of this main issue for ukraine in order to continue to crush the russian federation, which it threatens, that is the postponement this question? for example, the loss of a coal mine,

it is quite fair, it is related to this, because we are talking about strikes on a coal mine with kababs, adjusted aerial bombs, the su-34 is the main one. russia's use of these bombs and long-range western weapons strikes on airfields on the territory of the russian federation reduced the presence of su-34x and the use of cabs, but it was not only with the su-34 that the attack on ugledar itself began, well, formally it can be considered in january 24- when they started moving in the direction of novomykhaivka and from sweetkoy v in the direction of 0532 of the logistical artery of the track with which... they entered, the first wave entered the corner, they advanced for nine months along the fields, along the beams, along the forest plantations, where our defense lines and frontiers were located, but first of all they had the ability to advance, because their advance was supported by regular strikes,

adjusted by aerial bombs by tactical aircraft, in principle even tactical aviation at the level of su-25 attack aircraft, k-52 attack helicopters, mi-28n and all. all this is located at air bases within 300 kilometers zone from the border with ukraine, due to which they had the possibility of approach, time of approach, the possibility of approach of the radius of action in this area, so it is really the same as in 2023, due to the battles of the democrats and republicans in the congress, we did not receive the necessary assistance from from the 23rd to the beginning of the 24th, almost half a year, and during this period, an avdiivka was lost due to a shortage of shells, as well as due to the dominance of russian tactical aviation, we continue to lose territories and cannot... defense lines and boundaries, because they are destroyed, are opened, hacked precisely by russian

aviation, so yes, this is true. thank you, mr. oleksandr, for the conversation, it was military expert oleksandr kovalenko. friends, i would like to remind you that we work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms. for those who are currently watching us live on these platforms. please subscribe to our pages and take part in our survey. today we will... ask about whether zelensky should publicize his victory plan, yes, no, everything is quite simple on youtube, if you have a different opinion, please write it in the comments, if you watch us on tv, pick up your smartphone or phone and vote on the numbers, yes 0800 211 381, no 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, then we have: viktor boberenko, political expert, expert of the bureau of policy analysis from the city of sumy. mr. viktor,

i congratulate you and thank you for being with us today. good health! since we ask our viewers and tv viewers about whether zelensky should make public his victory plan, which he presented last week in the united states of america, do you think, should the president now take and show this plan? at least partially, or to present this plan to the ukrainians themselves, who are currently fighting the russian invaders. of course, it should be done, not only that, it should have been done a long time ago regarding his departure to the united states, because otherwise, well, it raises questions, but in the spring of 22, they said that, well, we they could not tell... ukrainians the truth, we knew that russia would attack, but zelensky called for barbecues and said that

everything is calm in baghdad, and then the office of the president and aristovych, at the same time he worked for them, he said, well listen, it's not mo, couldn't we say it there, because panic will start, okay, now you are still waiting for panic, you consider us children, you consider ukrainian society immature? and myself mature, that's why there is a very cool thing, but now i'm also a public organization, we give applications for donors, give us such and such grants, and donors announce, then there is such a specificity, a master class should be held for the office of the president, when a donor, for example, says, we do not need to submit a large application of 20 pages. submit the concept on two pages, together with the budget, with everything, here is how much money you are asking for, there is a conditional million

hryvnias for what, and then tell on two pages what you want to do, yes to that, here is the same with zelenskyi and yarmak could have said before leaving there that it's okay, ukrainians yermakh could say that it is a military secret, we will not say, we have many annexes to the plan, that we want annex number one such types of weapons, annex number two such. types of weapons are quiet, we want quiet, quiet, quiet, here is our plan, here is a lot of everything, but the concept is like that, first of all, we are there, we hope to reach the borders of 1991 there, and there, ukrainians, be calm, in our plan there are no options for surrender, or on the contrary to say that we have won, there is no mobilization resource, and therefore we will suit, but ukraine will retain its independence, but we will... what are we conceptually, and not everyone needs to know the rest,

we do the first, second, third, and that would suit me too, i would, for example, know that yes, zelensky, as i think, that , for example, we need a victory for ukraine, this is the exit to the borders of 1991, and he wants support from the western allies for this, for this, and he says, this is ours... or something else that we will leave, where we will leave, yes there, or there we ask for more weapons, or, for example, we want us to join nato as a matter of urgency. those territories that we control, and those, such as the frg, the gdr, we will take them back one day, we will settle them politically, but there and say what is most important there, zelensky could say, i won because ukraine preserved its independence, here we are didn't give in, well, somehow, that is, they have to tell us the basics, otherwise, that is, i

will tell all the people, they... think you are fools, they think you are idiots, they think you are children, an immature society and don't want to talk to you why biden has the right to get our well, i don’t have a peace plan, i understand ukrainian realities less than biden, and there are thousands of millions of ukrainians like me . that you don't like ukrainians, they called for barbecues, and so on, why do you fool us all the time and think we are fools, so here in the state department of the united states of america, mr. victor, matthew miller, the spokesman for the state department, said that that the united states of america

has seen many productive steps in the plan of victory presented by president zelenskyi. let's hear what matthew said. the victory plan presented by ukraine is not only about what ukraine itself should do, but also about what other countries of the world should do. ukraine has not yet detailed this victory plan publicly, so i will not do so either, but we accepted this plan, we reviewed it and saw a number of productive steps in it, we will communicate with them on this matter. mr. viktor, i completely agree with you that the ukrainians, who are now fighting against the russians, have the right to know the victory plan of the supreme commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, especially since a people's war has been going on in ukraine since february 24, 2022, because the same sums where you live

rose against the occupiers, this and that people rose up, this no no no no are there any special services there? there was no one there, there was no government, and your comments about the fact that the ukrainians have the right to know about this victory plan, and could this be a part of, let's say this, volodymyr zelenskyi's big plan regarding the following including the presidential elections, because in parallel with how zelensky presented this plan for victory in the united states of america. zaekonomist published a publication about the possibility of presidential elections in ukraine in the 25th year, british journalists there, referring to sources, their sources in various headquarters of ukrainian politicians, wrote about the fact that such and such work is being carried out, or is it visible now such work, well, in particular in sumy oblast, maybe

someone there is carrying out certain actions or probing the soil, we know that the cec has started. updating the voter register, if this presidential election campaign was not on the nose, would it even happen? let's say, the central headquarters is deployed, yes, but regional headquarters and district headquarters are not deployed, now in connection with decentralization it is not at all clear whether any political forces will deploy headquarters to the level of the community there, yes, because... on that sumy oblast itself has 51 communities and deploys 50 headquarters, well, it would probably be inappropriate, but how it will turn out, who knows, but they probe the soil, the servants of the people must be given their due, to this is followed scrupulously, and, for example,

social surveys are conducted twice a month, and focus groups and focus groups are held twice a month. they are aimed at different target groups, and they are carried out specifically for target groups, well, for example, there today in sumy there, in poltava it may be different, and in sumy, for example, female teachers aged 30-39 who voted for zelensky in the 19th in poltava there may be students who will vote for the first time, well, for example, yes, well, there are different target groups, of course, are selected for... focus groups and ask various questions, the focus group analyzes in more detail, well, roughly speaking, you filled out the questionnaire there for 10-12 minutes and went on, but who will you vote for there, huh? for this, for that, for that, and the focus group asks, and why for that, and if there is not that, then for this, and who did you vote for before, and why did your opinion change, well, that is, focus is roughly measured by sociology

speaking, we are digging the garden, and the focus group is digging in the well, we are digging deep, so they conduct both, to some focus groups, well, how come they pass by there anyway they won't pass the same sumy state university, so sometimes we know a little there. yes, what is happening there, we know a little about the results of sociology, we don’t know a little, i know, for example, from insiders, also from my insiders, the servant of the people, that yermak came and says that they even offered the united states, well, that is, from a little distance, we we don't understand how to technically hold elections, it's like, well, if according to the constitution you can't hold elections to the verkhovna rada, then the president is okay. some changes to the law, to the electoral law, can change there of the code, the verkhovna rada issued a resolution and everything and went, yes, there is a

presidential election, okay, for example, it is possible, but how technically do you conduct it, like at the front, like overseas precincts, and that is, the only option is to act through some kind, yes, that is, the phone, i don't believe in such a thing, i will assume that here, well, that seroga kivalov, these will be flowers, that is, absolutely viktor. their legitimacy will definitely not believe in such elections, so yermak, as if he were negotiating with the united states, so that it was not even budget money, so that it was grant money, for some american consortium, for them to create this conditionally american action of some sort, in which we will vote, so that it is completely closed to them, but how to do it legally, because according to the idea of ​​the cec, it must work, calculate the result. and give it to the mountain, and not even some consortium, even if it will be, well, super-duper there, american or european or joint americans, europeans, that

someone there will put a cross on my belly, that there like that vitya, don’t worry, there won’t be any rigging and fraud, because it will not be done by the opa and the cec, not by some modern kivalovs, but it will be done by americans with europeans, like that... it can be made legitimate from the point of view of the cec, because the cec must if the results should be awarded, that is, i do not see the technical possibilities for this in any case, to make them so that we believe and say, okay, it is possible, again the opa will want to neutralize the main players, yes, so that the hard-working poroshenko does not come forward , there, even if poroshenko is industrious, not there to... danov, that is, the president's office will want to hold putin-style elections, yes, so that aristovych or boyko would be conditionally participants in the elections

, well, something like that, so that we would be fu-fu-fu, this is something pro-russian, and plus there is some aunt from 7 kilometers from near odesa or from the barabashovsky market, there is some homeless person, some other telepen, there like, and there like, here are four competitors of zelensky and one of them is aristovych and we then. god, let's vote for zelensky, if only aristov is not a bum. that's how they're going to win the election, because all the other schedules, ie a bad guy is nominated, a bad guy wins with a whistle, is nominated, not nominated , a bad guy, there will be budanov, budanov will win, there will be no bad budanov, poroshenko will win, anyone from zelensky will win, well, from the strong, if it is not according to putin’s option, and that is why we have to talk to the allies that... well, i also want the government to change, i also want zelensky to go to hollywood and shoot the matchmaker series in english, well, hey

, let's do it so that it happens, so that it will be believed we, so that these elections are legitimate for ourselves, and not to give an excuse to tell putin that, well, again , some illegitimate people have come to power in ukraine, this cannot be allowed. well, that is, you, you are absolutely convinced that in any, in any configuration, with fair elections , zelensky will not win the elections for the second time, he will not win, well, if the elections are organized honestly, even if they are short elections, 60, well, the resolution and 60 days, it is clear that zelenskyi will have an advantage, but if the same general zaluzhnyi as zelenskyi registers, he will have no luck, no way, thank you. mr. viktor, and finally, what is the situation now in sumy, to be brief, we literally have a minute left, a difficult, difficult situation,

bad with electricity, bad with water. bad with mobile communication, bad with the internet, and the enemy, as a rule, hit sums, either late at night or early in the morning, and this is today, well, they are flying all day, in anxiety, in fact, like a break, at school in class, 10 minutes and a new alarm, 10 minutes and a new alarm, and they fly all day, they are shot down all day, somewhere, well, they use a new attack tactic during the day, thank you, mr. viktor. take care of yourself, send congratulations to my native sums, and all the best to you, take care of yourself, this was viktor boberenko, an expert of the political analysis bureau, and i would like to remind my friends that throughout our broadcast we are conducting a survey, or rather we are already completing this survey, which sounds like this should zelensky make public his victory plan, meaning the plan he presented last week in the united states of america. so, the results of our
