zaluzhnyi will find himself outside his natural position as the commander-in-chief of the ukrainian armed forcesen he will be forced, due to many circumstances, to become, well, if he does not personally put up a very strong resistance, then he will one way or another become an opposition politician, marchuk, in fact, will not either.. .planned to become a public politician, he himself became the prime minister, and somehow worked there. yushchenko, yushchenko was nominated, pushed into politics, but not him there was another way out, but the most important thing is that there are great expectations, that is, what i see today in the information space, in social networks, there is a very high demand for a diligent politician, and eh... he will not be allowed to stay somewhere in

let's listen to what the chief of the general staff of the armed forces of romania said., the population of romania, like the entire population of the european union, should be worried, and we should take appropriate measures measures to be prepared. i personally, not necessarily a military person, believe that the russian federation will not stop there. if he wins in ukraine, the main target will be the republic of moldova. we will witness tensions in the western balkans. i am more than certain that president putin will resort to escalation in the near future. at the same time, romanian prime minister marchal chalaku called for calm. romania will not join... any war, he stressed, well, the question here is not whether romania will join the war or not, whether russia is at war with romania, let's start with the main thing, that romania is also a nato member country, and all nato member countries, and there are now 32 of them, 32 sweden will definitely join the alliance in the near future, all nato member countries have understood that russia is not just a potential threat

program, which precisely provided for the strengthening of ukraine's defense capabilities, not only armed forces and of ukraine, but the authorities were not interested in it then and are not interested now, they are trying to appoint military officers as scapegoats, but... from the category that, unfortunately, when they serve, they do not have the right to criticize the authorities, but when is already being released, then probably there will be many of them who will be able to tell how it was really there in the sidelines and dungeons of the bank, when mice quietly rustled on the green lawn. mr. general, our youtube viewer serhiy popovsky asks, please ask what general kryvonos is doing now, so i'm forwarding this to you for. question, i will answer this question personally, because i have already answered, i help many, many soldiers who are currently preparing or fighting, consult, advise, well, i also try to protect our soldiers, take part in legal proceedings for the persecution of heroes of ukraine, real heroes of ukraine, the same roman chervinskyi, or today there was a trial of major mal

we talked about personnel rotations in the armed forces of ukraine. well, a the dismissal of zaluzhnyi and appointment to the position of head of the syrian committee is a top topic in the ukrainian segment of social networks, including how do other military personnel comment on this personnel rotation. we collected their social media posts. listen. see you in the ranks, my civilians, wait for the invitation, remember this moment, life now was a paradise, and once again, who said that valery zaluzhnyi was guilty of great losses, ok, dear. give us more of your mother's cherries and buns, we have an avdiiv cauldron on the way, remember, debaltsivsk, like you guess who was in charge then? and a bunch more people are needed, because the cauldron will not be so tasty , the truth is, it will not be so tragic, and not one, come on, it was an honor to serve under the leadership of general zaluzhnyi, i am ashamed to continue my service, supreme, in such cases, sergeant zsu, the report is over. in recent weeks we are all eyes. a miracle, but a miracle, unfortun

day before, the operational-strategic grouping of tavria troops confirmed the withdrawal of the armed forces. of ukraine from this settlement, as well as from the neighboring, northern one. the commander of this direction, brigadier general oleksandr tarnavskyi, says that the ukrainian forces, i quote: have stabilized the defense line in the tonenko, orlivka, and berdychiv districts. we have comments dmytro lykhovii, the spokesman for the tavria operational-strategic group of troops , said that fierce battles continued for stepov and severne, but the armed forces of ukraine withdrew from there due to the overwhelming number of russian troops. let's hear how he explains the departure. armed forces it happened in principle , er, according to a similar scenario, as in lastochkino , when the enemy had an advantage in personnel, er, had a great advantage in aviation, bombarded the settlement and our positions in it, with aerial bombs, controlled by cabs, so-called, hit with artillery. e in a populated place that is actually no longer populated, and in recent days there is such a tendency that the

address, regarding of this, the president spoke in general about changes in the command of the armed forces, in particular, the first commander of the newly created forces of unmanned systems will be appointed. in russia's war against ukraine , drones have become an important weapon for both sides, and the bbc's james waterhouse previously visited the kherson region to see which ones. there's just been shelling here, when you're so close to the river that the front line runs through, you're always being watched by drones in the sky or the russians themselves, so you have to move fast, we've been invited to join the 11th brigade national guard of ukraine. not in the trench but in this room their specialty is strike drones simple cheap deadly its one of the defining weapons in this war we have just received word that there are several enemy fpvs taking off from a location we know from they fly out almost often, and we are flying there right now. the drone is launched and it flies to the territory occupied by russia. a few kilometers later, artem finds his target - a drone control system used

in the fortified areas of the armed forces of ukraine surrounding the avdeevsk industrial zone.ere knocked out of the wetland itself, as it is usually called here. they occupied the nearest forest belts. don't turn on the light, don't turn on the light. this is how you have to work in the dark. before leaving, it was not in vain that they wrapped their legs with tape, bags of water up to their knees and guys, every night, every day, people like this move around, war is not just a waste of time, look at everything now, it’s a battle of character that endures, it’s so difficult to endure it all, it’s not so difficult, it’s not so difficult to shoot, it’s not so difficult to endure this . so, we walk for almost a kilometer, of course, it’s easier to move on top of the icy ground, but then they’ll immediately see us through a thermal imager and aim artillery or drones, or else everything at once. in some places the guys try to cover the trenches with bars like this in order to at least somehow protect themselves from air dumps, because the copters are constantly they ply and try to

remember, the best investment in our freedom and independence is a donation to the armed forces of ukrainee president of hungary, katalin novak, has resigned, writes euronews. this happened after a wave of protests in budapest. thousands of people took to the streets demanding that the country's leader step down. the reason for the outrage was novak's decision to pardon people. who was convicted of concealing a case of sexual abuse of children in the orphanage. to hungary on a recent mattress in transcarpathia border guards detained an evader who tried to get abroad through the tisza river, for this he even put on a wetsuit. the two men accompanying him were to check if there was a border outfit nearby. for such services, the hot runner had to pay 4 thousand dollars. offender. they were detained 500 m from the border, in their car they found an inflatable mattress and the dodger's pump, they drew up an administrative report, and the actions of his assistants were reported to the national police. scandal in kosmachi , ivano-frankivsk oblast, day after day, locals blocked the road in anticip

forces of ukraine oleksandr syrskyi, the new commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, untilskyi commanded the ground forces of the armed forces of ukraine, he is 58 years old, he was born in russia, graduated from the moscow higher military command school, after school he worked in ukraine, well then still in the ssr. then in independent ukraine , well, actually, he became a ukrainian general, a hero of ukraine for the defense of kyiv, well, we will follow how and what general syrskyi will talk about after his appointment and in his new status, and we will wait for some explanations from volodymyr zelensky, which became the reason for the resignation of valery zaluzhny, because this question will obviously be asked to him more than once. this, friends, is the end of our conversation, thank you all for it those who were with us today, i wish everyone a good evening, take care of yourself and your loved ones, goodbye sirskyi, instead of zaluzhnyi, president zelenskyi replaced the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, how it happened, we tell on the bbc live from l

of ukraine, the most difficult time was when he was in the position of the head of the armed forces of ukraine, as to what kind of leader syrskyi will be, it is difficult to say yet , but he was close to zaluzhnyi and was part of valery zaluzhny's team, and obviously, obviously, he will er... carry out the same policy, but at least there will not be any sharp movements to the left or right, the policy that has been in the armed forces of ukraine until now. and we already have a politician, diplomat, ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of ukraine in the united states of america in 2015-19 , valery chaly. mr. valery, i congratulate you, thank you for being with us today. i congratulate you, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, quite a difficult informational evening today, that's why... the fact that you joined our conversation, but had to tell about these personnel rotations that took place at the level of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine. how will the rotation of the chief of staff and the change of zaluzhnyi to syrskyi affect our relations with the o

the key events are big changes, personnel rotations in... the general staff and command of the armed forcesukraine. so, according to the information of the mirror of the week , oleksandr pavlyuk will become the new commander of the ground forces of the armed forces of ukraine instead of oleksandr syrskyi, the deputy minister of defense of ukraine. the mirror of the week learned about this from its own sources in the ministry of defense and at the same time the interlocutor mirrors of the week added that the manager...

the offensive operation of the ukrainian armed forces, under the strict leadership of the westerners , pursued the same tasks to be solved. reach the coast of the sea of ​​azov, cutting off the group of russian troops on the southern flank of the russian-ukrainian front and thereby cut off land communications between continental russia and crimea, but the well -prepared defense of the russian armed forces in all directions left no chance for the enemy. the russian army was preparing to repel this offensive ; measures were taken thoroughly to create a defense along the entire front line with a length of more than 1. imagine, over 3,00 strongholds, 45,000 dugouts and more than 150,000 shelters for equipment were equipped along the entire front line, about 2,500 km of anti-tank defenses were created ditches, more than 7,000 km of minefields have been installed, where about 5 million mines are located. in addition to the troops occupying defensive positions, the russian command has provided significant reserves with a total number of about 60 thousand people, having more than eight... un

, the number of artillery shells, etc., that is, this is also a problem, but for two years the armed forces of ukraine, the defense forces in general, have actually restrained one of the largest armies in the world, which has a gigantic budget, which is ready... for this war, despite the fact that russia is also a nuclear power, and in fact, and in the conditions of limited supplies of weapons, we see that the countries. europe and the us countries, which have now helped us with weapons, we are very grateful to them for this, because even if we receive outdated samples of weapons, we receive them, and without a doubt without this support, we would not be able to sustain such a number, but we see that at this time, at this particular moment, even the united states of america is not able to produce in a year as much large-caliber ammunition as ukraine needs on the battlefield, even just for... . two weeks in two, relatively speaking, they produce 155 calibers in a year, as much as ukraine spends them in two or three weeks. you see, this is a gigantic problem. ot. therefore , we see that there

supreme commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the russian federation, vladimir putin.ow, as reported by the ministry of defense, our military is conducting a final cleansing of the city from militants and blocking ukrainian units at the coke plant. and vdeevka is also a strategically important transport route. the armed forces of ukraine turned a high-rise area into a fortified area, dense buildings, difficult to approach, here it is on the map as a protrusion, liberation microdistrict khimik, as well as establishing control over the chemical plant, as the final point, here is our fighter. avdeevka. units of the center group, under the command of colonel general andrei mordvichev, took full control of the city of ovdeevko, donetsk people's republic, which was a powerful defensive hub of the armed forces of ukraine. as a result of offensive actions from ukrainian nationalists, an area of ​​about 32 km was liberated. and in this square , count every building, firing point, city the militants have been preparing for defense, starting in 2014, with a defense in depth. no o

serhii kryvanos, general of the armed forces of ukraine, former first deputy commander of the armed forcesecial operations forces of the armed forces of ukraine, was in touch with us. now we will move on to our foreign policy affairs and we are in touch with andriy deshchytsia, diplomat, former acting minister of foreign affairs of ukraine and former ambassador of ukraine to poland and finland. congratulations, sir. andrii, good evening, i congratulate you, well, let's start with finland, where the second round of the presidential elections is currently taking place, literally in half an hour the forecast of the election results will be published, but in a few minutes we will find out. there is preliminary information that alexander stup, who was considered the probable winner of the second round, is in the first position and... with the number of votes of 52.7% of the voting participants, and his opponent pkh visto received 47.3% of the votes, but this is based on the calculation of 66.7% of the votes of the participants of the second round, literally in a few minutes we will know the fin

on the one hand, and on the other, in the air, in my opinion, the air force, this the type of armed forcese means of air attack significantly exceed our capabilities, nevertheless showed its ability to ensure the fulfillment of the tasks of the defense forces of ukraine, both on the front line and in the territories, although. it is clear that we would like more effective activities both at sea and in the air, but for this we need new capabilities, for which, well, the military-political leadership is fighting, well, that is, you think that the issue is already almost resolved, the issue is not, i do not think that it is will be solved, rather complicated relationship, and i would like to say that... the reasons for the unfulfilled task last year in our country are not only external in terms of the supply of military equipment, but also between these top officials, because the resource that was collected on counteroffensive actions in one direction, he sprayed first three. the bakhmud, berdyan and melitopol directions, and then they added the kherson direction, that is, since they were div

andrii, we have finally changed the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine. syrsky begins to fulfill his duties, he has already had time, well, let's put it this way, pri'. set their priorities for the near future, many believe that general syrsky is offensive-oriented, somewhat more than the ex-head zaluzhny, who made it clear in every possible way that it is important to be in such an active, but still defensive, stage. this is a question for you : whether, let's say, the plans of the defense forces for offensive operations will be revised now, and whether we can actually fall into a trap, when the appropriate conditions, prerequisites have not yet been created, we have not yet received the corresponding weapons from our partners, but we have an already formed request for offensive actions, and we will start them in 2024, no, well, the main thing here is that, in principle... such decisions on the start of offensive actions, they were taken by the military according to the readiness of the military formations, and not by politicians, according to some other

so that the russians would stretch their supply lines and become vulnerable to strikes by the armed forcesreat from the ukrainian capital. on july 28, 2022 , the president, deputies , and foreign guests applauded in the verkhovna rada, the main committee, but if the same western press is to be believed, already then tension arose between the political and military leadership, the president's office was worried about the extremely high popularity of the hard-working man among ukrainians, about which testified closed opinion polls, after the failure of the ukrainian counteroffensive in the summer of 2023. the situation only worsened. outside the conflict began to emerge in the fall after the publication of zaluzhnyi's article in the economist magazine. in it, the headman declared that the war had reached a dead end and had entered a positional phase unfavorable for ukraine. the general was denied in the president's office. zelensky himself refused to comment on the alleged conflict. why should someone help and develop this topic?

of half of the nato countries are separate, that is , the armed forces are simply less in these, that is, it is really serious grouping, it must be supported, it must be constantly it is necessary to supply ammunition, food, fuel, evacuate the wounded, and so on, that is, logistics are needed, but precisely from the point of view of logistics, the crimean bridge is very important. ah, especially its railway line, and through the crimean bridge, well, according to various data, about 25% of the logistics in the interests of this armed group, which is located in the crimea, is supplied, the other part 75 is supplied through the corridor that was penetrated from the krasnodar territory to... the crimean peninsula, so in any case, i understand that ours plans for the liberation of crimea, they will be based on the fact that we will simply , let's say, actually make it impossible to supply the group that is located there, both from the north and from the east, just east of... the crimean bridge, this , which we see now, the russians from the beginning of its construction really predi

direct fire at the forward positions of the ukrainian armed forces in a populated area. they are hitting the enemy from camouflaged lines, the fire of the usuri paratroopers of the southern group of troops is continuous. there are several hundred meters ahead, we pass them at maximum speed, this is protection from enemy drones. and here one of the elements of drone weapons is the latest electronic warfare system, which creates a kind of dome over the combat vehicle, preventing... a drone from attacking our vehicle. our reconnaissance drone spotted armored vehicles of the armed forces of ukraine following fresh tracks of snow. here the car turned into the forest belt. apparently they have a camouflaged firing line in these bushes. the enemy is shelling our forward positions from here. the suryan paratroopers' strike is aimed at this square. the enemy target is destroyed. the ammunition in the armored vehicle explodes. flame and cloud. thick acrid smoke rises up. a thunderstorm for airborne troops, the newest bmp-3. the twin 30 mm and 100 mm cannon can also hit enemy tanks

at the beginning of the offensive, the ukrainian armed forces’ strike force consisted of 132,000 personnelbattalions, more than 2,000 tanks and other armored vehicles. 960 field artillery pieces, 114 aircraft, more than 45% personnel - from the total strength of the group and more than 75% of the strategic reserve - were trained according to nato standards. western countries handed over to ukraine about 600 tanks, more than 2 thousand combat ones. if we compare these figures with the composition of the ukrainian armed forces strike group , we can see that in terms of the number of armor, equipment and artillery, it is quite comparable to what the wehrmacht had near kursk in july of 1943; the ukrainian armed forces group only had significantly fewer personnel and aviation. except for aviation the strike group of the ukrainian armed forces was, according to sevkov, comparable to what the wehrmach put up for operation citadel. the goal of the operation was the decisive defeat of the strategic grouping of soviet troops on the kursk ledge by encircling it. the offensive operation of the ukraini

you know very well the team that has now come to the leadership of the armed forces of ukraine, theyositions, respectively in the second and third positions of the armed forces. of ukraine, but these are also people who went through the war and are going through the war together with the brave and with you, including what makes this team different from you. of the team that left, that is, to just understand what the difference is and why this team turned out to be better than the team that was retired, well, for zelenskyi, first of all , it did not show up at all, because it is just starting to work and has not shown any results, of course, in this team, there are certain people who do not yet have work experience at operational-strategic and strategic levels, and it can be quite serious. to influence a certain situation, because the green government has already made such certain, you know, popular rotations for themselves, let's remember the dismissal, the mass dismissal of military committees in the past, last summer, and exactly what this led to, military commissars were removed,

if we compare these figures with the composition of the ukrainian armed forces’ strike force, we can that in terms of the amount of armor, equipment and artillery, it is quite comparable to what the wehrmacht had near kursk in july 1943. the armed forces of ukraine grouping contained significantly fewer personnel and aircraft. with the exception of aviation , the ukrainian armed forces strike group was, according to sevkov, comparable to what the vermah deployed for operation citadel. then the purpose of the operation consisted of the decisive defeat of the strategic grouping of soviet troops on the kurdish ledge by encircling it. the offensive operation of the ukrainian armed forces, under the strict leadership of the westerners, pursued the same objectives, decisively reaching the coast of the sea of ​​azov, cutting the group of russian troops on the southern flank of the russian-ukrainian front and thereby stopping the land communications of continental russia with crimea, but well- prepared turns. the russian armed forces in all directions left no chance for the enemy. russian ar
