he is a reserve colonel, yes, an expert of the center for defense strategies, mr. viktor. rday, literally, your center for defense research published an interesting analytical report that has the name of the 6-month war, the prospects of victory and the main factor chose to actively participate in the preparation of that document, and one of the theses of this document states that, relatively speaking, russia has no opportunity to continue actively hostilities, and ukraine does not yet have the necessary capabilities. can we say that we are now entering a new phase of the war, the so-called war of attrition, where the main role is now played by the economic potential of the states and not the capabilities of the armed forces, or are such conclusions still premature your opinion i would not say that this is a new phase , it was present long before the beginning of the hot phase of the conflict, war is always a confrontation of potentials, first of all, it should be taken into account that the society that wins in a war is mentally more aspires to victory here, clearly ukrain

institute of strategic studies and alina frolova, deputy chairman of the board of the center for defense strategiesalina, if you would please, i would like to start with your comment on what our viewers just heard, the reaction of the occupation authorities to the events in crimea, and of course the warning from the president's office how would you rate the demilitarization of ukraine? this very term was used in the office of the president of ukraine on the annexed peninsula, in any case, it cannot but add some positivity because it means that there is a military strategy that concerns the deoccupation of crimea, of course, demilitarization is what russia should be subjugated, and now it is important. first of all, psychological pressure plays a role. yes, in addition to the obvious benefits that we receive from decommissioning the infrastructure, this is psychological pressure, and this is actually it. i think that another plus from all the events that are taking place is that such a general discussion is removed, it has become the concept that crimea can be liberated exclusively by peaceful means

center of defense strategies contact us oleksandr we congratulate you. glory to ukraine. glory to the heroes. well, according to oleksandr, we understand that there are positive signals from our western partners that they are preparing forow, an increase in defense orders. the same pentagon has just published this information. yes, they are preparing. to increase the number of missiles in general and high-mars installations, but the current moment is not easy, we need a lot of weapons, and even more, yes, but they are already saying that most of the warehouses are empty, this means operational warehouses that could be deconserved, put on a gun carriage and transported like this so to speak, using sea connections, this is the moment of transition now, how difficult it will be, and how we will manage to overlap in the next couple of months. well, you know , first of all, you should say slowness, actually thinking in the west, especially in the united states, we should definitely be grateful for such significant help that they have been giving us for the last few months, and it is already more than 10 billion dollars of weapons, first of all weapons. but on the other hand, all this is hampered by such slow thinking as i sa

strategy and national counterterrorism center and with the dia of the lead analyst on the senior leadership at the defense intelligence agency also at the national center, you have dealt with this for a long time and going after zawahiri, your thoughts on this and the significance? >> obviously it is a good day, always happy to see the united states with this little memory reaching out and bringing someone to justice. that's a great thing for the nation. i think that it will be interesting to learn over the next couple of days the intelligence that gave us this opportunity. it is an interesting development from the withdrawal that somehow our intelligence picture actually firmed up in our options to be able to see that there was a role in intelligence to the united states from perhaps the taliban or isis-k or some other group that may have wanted to make a change. >> bret: this was not a dod operation a cia strike. there are other questions obviously that move forward and was there any exploitation of the site afterwards? you know, how that operates, there is always an effort to go after the next spider web of terrorists, and i think we don't talk about terrorism as much because it
