fedienko, people's deputy, representative of the servant of the people and member of the committee on national security defense intelligence joins our broadcast. i greet you, good evening. good evening, glory to ukraine. glory to the heroes. oleksandr, as a people's deputy and a representative of the defense intelligence committee, are you concerned about the problem of saz in the army, does it exist? look, first of all, i want to share the indignation that i just heard from the citizens of ukraine from... different parts of our country, we can discuss a lot on this issue, but i still want to address the citizens that when the war ends, and when will putin decide to end the war? we depend on many factors, even on that factor, a do we have enough conscripts left who consciously want to sign a contract, or even mobilize in order to defend their country, homeland and in order to give the opportunity to those who have already been 2.5 years old, as the woman said about her son , or to go on rotation, or to go home on leave, or to apologize, or even to demobilize, if i understand you correctly, from... the military, who are cur

i will say this, as early as january, the national security, defense and intelligence committee, in which work, made a decision to recall her from the position of deputy chairman of the committee and to recall her. it is generally from the members committee, at the same time, despite the fact that the chairman of the committee, zavitnevich, is a representative of the servant of the people faction, submits this resolution to be included in the agenda, it is blocked, blocked at the level of the speaker and blocked at the level of the leader of the monomajority and opzh, that is, it is happening today faction , the conciliation council, and right now there is again a discussion of the destructive presence of this person in the national security, defense and intelligence committee, because her behavior, to put it mildly, is not ethical behavior that she engages in, in fact is used very efficiently by the enemy and poses significant risks and threats to our security as a whole. i am sure that her continued presence in the committee will lead to a complete blocking of the committee's activities

strategic industries, when he briefed us behind closed doors on the national security, defense and intelligence committeee fairly optimistic numbers about how our own capabilities are increasing, all of which definitely needs additional funding, where to get it, answering your second question , well, you know that we are considering a number of legislative initiatives at the request of the cabinet of ministers of ukraine, including, first of all, tax policy committee regarding an increase in the military levy, an increase in other revenues , the issue of excise tax is being discussed there, and i think with the help of these additional revenues, we will try to cover the deficit, which is , let's say, inevitable, given what we just talked about, i understand that in this the draft budget does not have this cashback with... glorious of course or sad of course, which was talked about a lot, but there are also no other things like economy booking, that is, how will we then be to revive the economy, which is clearly experiencing stress and a huge labor shortage? well , we definitely have to think about two ma

specialized committee, we will now find out , our broadcast is joined by solomiya bobrovska, member of parliament, voice and representative of the committee on national security, defense and intelligencereetings to you, good evening, well, you have heard the introductions to the topic, roman gladkyi is very, as i have seen, seeing an ambiguous personnel in view of the comments to his address, please tell. is this person the subject of the defense committee's attention, what do you think about this appointment, why did it happen? well, look, first of all, i would like the armed forces and the military command not to be offended, not to take it personally, but surely we should return to the institute of reputation, in particular in the armed forces, because today the armed forces are not 200,000, but 300,000 , this is the attention of the entire society and our partners, it's one and two, we don't specify. whom to appoint or whom shoot, but obviously, when people have a toxic reputation, and there are enough of such people today, there were and are in the military command for the last 10 years, let's be honest, and then we rake for such things with very bad stories, then of course that

, iryna fries, member of parliament for european solidarity and representative of the committee on national security, defense and intelligence talked about the tragedy in poltava and its possible consequences. thank you, and then we have another topic, personnel decisions, we, we are monitoring the situation in poltava, and we will update information as soon as new information appears, and now personnel decisions, i understand that against the background of the events in poltava is not such an important topic, but at the same time it can be overlooked, and believe me, it is important considering the fact that winter is ahead, exactly what i am talking about, volodymyr kudrytskyi, the head of ukrenergo was dismissed from his position in the professional expert environment, this dismissal is called. politically motivated and say that this is supposedly the end of volodymyr zelenskyi's reform era. now let's go in order. last week on friday during a meeting of the supreme commander-in-chief, the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyy allegedly decided that the chairman of the board of ukrenergo volodymyr kudrytskyi should writ

committee. this week, the verkhovna rada recalled a people's deputy from the post of deputy chairman and member of the committee on national security, defense and intelligence. 252 parliamentarians voted for it. at the same time, bezglup was transferred to the committee on foreign policy. nardepka herself explained her transition to desire. to expand activities and cooperate with partners. let me remind you, maryana bezugla is known for criticizing the military leadership of ukraine for initiatives to punish ukrainians who are conscripted abroad, statements about the mobilization of women and volunteers, and other ambiguous posts in social networks. if the bill is brief, for myself i decided , taking into account all the toxic processes taking place in the committee, to get engaged again. supporting partners to develop democratic civilian oversight and control over the national security and defense sector and to achieve the institutional changes that i constantly insist on. you know very well this whole story about certain conflicts, including conflicts within the committee that she was on, and it seems to me that this is such a solomonic decision, when we

and economically. roman kostenko, secretary of the verkhovna rada's committee on national security, defense and intelligenceople's deputy, sbu colonel, joins our issue. i congratulate you. good morning. mr. roman, we understand that losses in war are the state. the data is not revealed as a secret, but how true, how plausible do the wall street journal's data on losses on both sides look to you? well, indeed, you are right that the data is not disclosed, and in our country, in principle, the president already mentioned a year ago, if i am not mistaken, somewhere approximately, and i think that the losses that were, if you take the past two years, we had about the same number of 1,900 there, and that was considered. only those who were officially issued with death certificates, we know that there are still people who are missing, i think that they calculated the same figure here, so i don't have the exact data directly, there , to say that these data are 100% correct, i think they are approximate, and well, what they calculated, for example, there is this publication. and if we consider even them approximate

and i, well, that is, it's not a rumor anymore, it's already a definite comment on the part of colonel kostenko, for a moment , the secretary of the verkhovna rada committee on national security, defense and intelligenceyerov and budanov, what are you hearing ? , probably my colleagues, there really is some kind of disturbance, it has been going on for several weeks, and as for budanov, and in many respects they started talking about it after two of his deputies were fired, and promerova , such rumors are circulating, probably after ramshtein, when it seems that the president was somewhat surprised by the preparation minister, let's say so, but after these rumors, well, if things don't work out. and yesterday around two o'clock in the afternoon, i don't really follow joker's telegram channel, it was he who got this information, which he later rubbed out, but around two o'clock in the afternoon they really started there are rumors that omarov and budanov can be fired, but they can fire, they can fire, there is always a question of who to replace, and since now in this equation there is no answer to the question of who, in fact , will be replaced, therefore... well, that's the question for now , somethi

people's deputy maryana bezugla from the post of deputy chairman and member of the committee on national security, defense and intelligence, 252 parliamentarians voted for it, people's deputy oleksiy goncharenko said. at the same time, he was transferred to the committee on foreign policy. nardepka herself explained as follows. the transition to the desire to expand activities, let me remind you, maryana, bezugla, is known for her criticism of the military leadership of ukraine, initiatives to punish conscript ukrainians for border, statements about the mobilization of women and volunteers and other ambiguous posts in social networks. for myself, i decided, taking into account all the toxic processes taking place in the committee, to enlist the support of partners. in order to develop democratic civilian oversight and control over the national security and defense sector and achieve those institutional changes that i constantly insist on. de-russification in ukraine. the verkhovna rada supported the renaming of 328 settlements . accordingly, the resolution was supported by 281 people's deputy the changes concern names tha

skype with us roman kostenko, people's deputy of ukraine and secretary of the parliamentary committee on national security, defense and intelligencecyborg and colonel of the sbu, mr. roman, congratulations, glory to ukraine, with you there are several important topics we would like to discuss, and the first is , of course, regarding the shelling, which has been extremely active over the last week, we already understand that the enemy has accumulated a certain number of missiles, and in this way on... tried and is trying to terrorize us, but is there any, well, it's not that they have a goal, but maybe a goal that they want to achieve with this, what do you think, well, there is a war and the enemy, let's say this, is fighting in the tactical direction, on the front line, and they are trying to use the informational direction and are trying to fight with our population, first of all, to strike at military facilities, having the advantage precisely... combat weapons, it is in missiles, and the main thing is that it is terrorist direction, it is about intimidating our civil society in order to force it to put some kind of pressure on

if mariana was dismissed from the post of deputy instead, the head of the committee on national security, defense and intelligencebut transferred to no less important is the committee on foreign policy and interparliamentary cooperation. in general, if we talk about the level of nervousness in the... parliamentary hall, oleg mykhailovych, well, for me this is not a significant event, because it is too much of an honor to discuss the activities of this person, but what is obvious, because we understand very well, that this lady is simply a mouthpiece of those people who really influence the situation in the state, i understand that the center of gravity in the state is shifting from military issues. on diplomatic subjects, i think that in the mouth this lady, interested persons will now give nightmares to the diplomatic corps of ukraine, and i don't see anything good in this today, because let's analyze what good this deputy did for the military, nothing, that's why i'm convinced that there will also be no transfers for ukrainian diplomats, and nothing good in this story, i'm sure. i don't see, but who do you thin

to remind you, well, while you are talking, i am a member of the national security committee, defense and intelligence to the working group on the development of the army aviation of ukraine under the leadership of general. samilenko, it’s just that you are for deputy minister klachka, just so that you understand where i went, and at the moment i have here, well, let’s put it this way, kalibi, we will talk in the next broadcasts about the situation in poltava, about what the committee will decide, therefore, i invite you in advance tomorrow or on friday, yulia, what do you say about the resignation, not kuleba's resignation, what was it at all, look, it was actually very bad a message to our... well, i think, international partners, since kuleba has been the face of ukraine's foreign policy for the last time there, well, for many years, 3 years already, yes, even more, i don't remember when we appointed him, and to release him in such a way, when in the evening he writes, i don't know, at 11:00 a statement under duress or not under duress, and in the morning he is examined, this is a shame, both for t

defense denied this, but here the question is whether there will be political will to remove maryana bezuglu from the post of deputy head of the committee on national issues security, defense and intelligence. did they say something on this topic today on the sidelines of the parliament and is there a political will now to remove this person from this position from this important committee? among the representatives of the opposition factions, there definitely is, and it looked like that. i will repeat once again, it seemed that this decision was agreed with the representatives of manobolshesti, and in fact we voted today on such a proposal to remove ms. maryana from the position of deputy chairman of the defense committee, and this decision was defeated, only 204 votes, if i i'm not mistaken, only 204 parliamentarians voted for this decision, and most of the representatives of monobil. did not support the majority, voted with a yellow or red button, therefore maryana bezogla will continue to be the deputy head of the defense committee. see what if for example, to talk about the next plenary meeting, will the issue of the resignation of iryna vereshchuk, for example, be raised according to

intelligence agency, but if we take the white house, then he serves information and the intelligence committee and the central intelligence agency, but there is also the joint intelligence of the ministry of defense, the authority of which is much higher for the state apparatus system in the united states of america. that is, roman petrovich, in your opinion, the united states, for example, the current administration of the current president biden, they will be ready to take a risk, a serious risk, we understand. so that president biden will go down in history in any case, so little is left for him, and in principle he does not have any limitations, because he doesn't go around kamela harris's election rallies with a flag and doesn't hand out sugar candies to voters, yes, that means kamala harris is somewhat separated in the imagination of americans. so, biden can take a risk with the idea that russia has adjusted its nuclear doctrine, yes, but we understand. that most likely, it may not happen in the public sphere, but it may just be another toropets, toropets-2 or toropets-3, certain drones will fly in, so to speak, swarms of drones, one or another long-range device may be hidden, yes, which ca

and the successful counterattacks of the armed forces of ukraine in the kharkiv region, as previously stated by the third assault brigade. roman kostenko, secretary of the parliamentary committee on national security, defense and intelligenceins our broadcast. people's deputy of ukraine, colonel of the sbu. i welcome you, roman, to our broadcast. thank you for joining. good morning. with this rate of advance of the russian forces, according to your estimates, according to the information that you... possess, russia can start fighting directly for pokrovsk in september or not? well, let's think about the fact that we will invent forces after all. our main task now is to stop the enemy and stop his advance. there we talk a lot about the fact that the situation there is very complicated, it is so, but i believe that ukraine, ukraine can invent forces in... methods to stop the enemy even on the approaches to pokrovsk, therefore, of course, is now the main task of the command, i would not link here that kursk was not the operation that failed, so they continue to move, i think that the kursk operation will affect the consequences of the entire front in the future, and this is a fact, because no matter what anyone says, russia c

guest today is roman kostenko, people's deputy of ukraine, secretary of the committee on national security, defense and intelligencethe verkhovna rada, colonel of the security service of ukraine. mr. colonel, i congratulate you and thank you for being with us today. good evening, mr. sergey, good evening to everyone. mr. colonel, today, at night , the russians once again attacked sumy oblast, there was a rocket attack on sumy oblast and they hit sumy itself. on electric generation, on energy facilities, and it is clear that in conditions when the armed forces of ukraine are in kurshchyna in the region neighboring sumy oblast, and it is clear that it is probably worth talking about the prospects of the sumy region in the context of the development of the counteroffensive operation of the armed forces of ukraine in kurshchyna, and especially if the offensive operation... will be russian, do these strikes mean , which are now increasing in the sumy region, that the russians want to turn the sumy region or even the sumy region into this sanitary zone, or are they forcing our soldiers to return to the territory of ukrai

colonel of ukraine, people's deputy of ukraine, secretary of the parliamentary committee on national security, defense and intelligence, roman kostenko. mr. colonel, i congratulate you, thank you for being with us today. good evening mr. colonel, well, let's start with russia's missile terror, massive strikes over the past few weeks, kharkiv, sumy, lviv, dnipro, poltava, what goals does putin pursue by shelling civilian cities, and most importantly, what should be our response to such shelling? well, first of all, we understand that we are for... giving putin blows on them military facilities, and this, on the one hand , may be his answer to the fact that he did not expect that ukraine would destroy its oil refining industry, that it would destroy its military facilities, airfields, and he is trying to intimidate ukraine in this way, to hit civilian objects, trying to influence society and intimidating. society, they have been doing this since the beginning of the war, i don't think anything has changed today, i join your sympathies, but we see that russia is from the very beginning, it was not particularly picky in i

very much, roman kostenko, people's deputy, secretary of the verkhovna rada committee on national security, defense and intelligence talked about. .. drone attacks on the territory of russia. thank you very much. well, at the same time, ukrainian drones are probably attacking russia. i will remind you that the kursk operation is ongoing, which, by the way, according to russian sociologists, has caused concern among russians, the russian side, meanwhile, he makes it clear that there will be no negotiations, even on kyiv's terms. for example, the former minister of defense of russia, serhiy shoigu, who currently holds the position of secretary of the security council, in his interview for the tv channel russia 24. stated that negotiations with ukraine are impossible as long as the military of the armed forces of ukraine remain on russian territory. later, kremlin spokesman dmytro piskov slightly supplemented shoigo's words. supposedly, he said. before the start of the ukrainian offensive in the kursk region, vladimir putin was ready to suspend it strikes on ukrainian energy infrastructure and merchant fleet in exchan

house, then it uses information from the intelligence committee and the central intelligence agency, but there is more joint intelligence. and the ministry of defense, the authority of which is much higher than the system of the state apparatus of the united states of america. that is, roman petrovych, in your opinion, the united states, for example, the current administration of the current president biden, they will be ready to take a risk, a serious risk. we understand that president biden is going down in history in any case, he doesn't have much left, and in principle he doesn't have any restrictions, because he doesn't drive. at the election rallies of kamela garis with a flag and does not give out, give one or another candy bars to the voters, yes, that is, kamalagaris is somewhat separated in the imagination of americans. so, biden can take a risk given that russia has adjusted its nuclear doctrine, yes, but we understand that rather, perhaps in the public sphere of this will not happen, but may just happen another toropets, toropets-2 or toropets-3, at. certain drones are flying, so to speak, a swarm of drones may be hidden by one or anoth

attention to the quote by roman kostenko, secretary of the verkhovna rada committee on national security, defense, and intelligence, and we'll comment on it in more detail. please. the loss of pokrovsk will not lead to the collapse of the front. the main thing is that it doesn't lead to a series of disasters that could actually lead to defeat. yes, vasily yuryevich, this optimism is surprising, of course, that is, and this not a catastrophe, and that's not a catastrophe. happened at the very beginning, they will never say this, here's the truth, that the catastrophe happened when there was a round of negotiations in minsk, it was possible to agree, then in istanbul, they won't admit that it was all in vain. thousands of people lie in their graves, it was all in vain, because initially everything was clear, now a few words about the course, for me it was scary, you know what, besides the fact that from the point of view of military strategy it makes no sense, it's scary that they went to the slaughter of their own people for the sake of pr and information attacks, because the attack on the kursk region was 70% done
