so, jens stoltenberg's biggest disappointment is the russian war in ukraine and the withdrawal of americannberg said this in an interview with the american tv channel cnn , 17 days before he will resign from the post of nato secretary general. at the same time , he called it his and the entire north atlantic alliance's greatest achievement strengthening the block. well, while the general secretary, in particular, said. quote: we were able to strengthen nato's collective defense, make nato stronger, the world has become much more dangerous in 10 years, but nato has become much stronger. and of course, we all thank jens stoltenburg for his work as nato secretary general for the support we received from nato. of course, i would like more, but thank you for the one that was there while he was, well, i will remind you that he is leaving on october 1. officially from this position, the former prime minister will sit in his chair mark rutten of the netherlands, well, jen stoltenberg himself is still wondering what he will do, and yesterday there was information that he may become the new head of

general nato secretary jens stoltenberg, who is literally two weeks away from resigning, said that he supports the possible lifting of restrictions for ukraine regarding long-range missile strikes deep into russian territory. he said this in an interview with the british publication times. according to him, nato allies will not become a party to the conflict if they allow the use of weapons against western targets on the territory of russia. the same - says the leaders. of the atlantic alliance, how iran and north korea did not become parties to the war, supplying russia with drones, weapons and ammunition, and even more so, according to jens stoltenberg, the strikes that the armed forces will inflict with western weapons on targets deep in the territory of russia will not cross the red lines that putin so constantly talks about, and putin, the nato secretary general confidently says, will not go along this for escalation. jen stoltenberg said. in this interview, that putin has already repeatedly said about some red lines, that they cannot be crossed, because it will be worse, well, t

well, this is not a red line, according to jens stoltenberg, and therefore putin will not go to this escalation. but very interesting news came from armenia today. official yerevan continues its progress from russia. the csto, that is, the organization of the collective security treaty, in which moscow itself plays the main violin, has created threats to armenia's sovereignty. such a statement was made by the prime minister of the country, nikol pashinyanyan, at the second armenian global summit. moreover, he emphasized that this threatens even the future existence and sovereignty of armenia. and since the csto still does not fulfill its obligations, it did not protect armenia in this case. in varna with azerbaijan, - says the head of the armenian government, and a decision was made on the freezing of membership in this structure. well, that's not all. nikol pashinyan also stated that armenia has even come as close as possible to the point of no return in relations with the organization of the collective security treaty. in other words, the csto, which is managed by, one might say, m

nato secretary general jen stoltenberg said this at his last final press conference in the chair of thed of the north atlantic alliance. according to him, ukraine must win, and for this, it, that is, we need to continue giving weapons. moreover, says mr. stoltenberg, arms supplies need to be increased, because there will be no security in europe without a stable ukraine, and only nato membership, and ukraine, will provide stable security in ukraine. will become a member of the north atlantic alliance, says nato secretary general jen stoltenberg and adds, and what exactly he adds, let's hear him directly. by giving ukraine more weapons, we can make putin understand that he will not get what he wants by force, and make his war so expensive that he will have to accept that ukraine has a sovereign democratic right to remain a sovereign democratic country. the paradox is that the more weapons we can provide to ukraine, the more likely we are to achieve peace and end the war, and the more reliable our long-term military support, the sooner the war will end. well, before telling the following

the north atlantic alliance's secret service agent, jen stoltenberg, stated that such operations are legal, since, quote: ukraine has the right to self-defense, which does not end at its state borders. the loud statement was published by the weekly welt amzon. russian soldiers, tanks and bases are legitimate targets under international law. ukraine has the right to defend itself as it deems necessary under international law. this right is not limited to the border. jen stoltenberg did not admit that the ukrainian side had coordinated the plan for an attack on the kursk region with nato in advance, although moscow stated that this operation was planned with the participation of western intelligence services and the military bloc. according to experts, kiev is compensating for its failures at the front by attacking kursk. genocide based on racial and national characteristics continues to be committed in the baltic borderland, and tacitly. consent of the western civilized world. refugees on the border with latvia faced more cases of inhuman treatment by foreign security forces. the vict

jens stoltenberg was clear on his position as well, he wants a ukraine to be able to use these weapons peace. you have a clip of what he told us earlier. according to international law, ukraine has the right to self—defence, and self—defence includes the right to strike legitimate military targets on the territory of the aggressor. and therefore i welcome that many allies have no restrictions on the use of weapons. you want the us to do so, as well? i welcome that allies, including the united states, has loosened up the restrictions because compared to where we were some months ago. allies also united states have loosened up the restrictions on how to use their weapons. and i welcome the fact that there is an ongoing consultation among allies on this issue. what about the fact that president putin has said doing so would amount to the west waging war on russia? i know in the past that president putin has used some of these threats, nuclear threats. are you concerned that this time could be the case? since the beginning of this war, russia has threatened and tried to coerce us from supp

jens stoltenberg from the members of this military organization wanted to continue providing weapons to ukraine. at the same time , the us defense minister said at the meeting of the ukraine defense contact group: a new aid package worth $250 million will be provided to ukraine. margarita robles, minister of defense of spain, announced the sending of a hawk air defense system to ukraine. the ministry of defense of france also announced in a statement that the country will spend 300 million euros from the profits of closed russian assets to finance the cost of weapons and ammunition for ukraine. since the beginning of the war in ukraine, western countries have more than 330 billion dollars they have confiscated the assets of the central bank of russia abroad. the russian foreign minister welcomed turkey's joining the brics group . lavrov said: "the most important thing for the members and the countries that work with break summer in different ways is to share the values ​​that are with the values ​​of the european union." there is a difference in the defense of ukraine. lavrov also sa

therefore, indeed, alexander, the moment of truth, and let's see what nato secretary general jens stoltenberging today at the end of his political career. apparently, at the end of his political career, he got political, how to say, color blindness, stopped seeing red lines, he has already stated that allowing ukraine to strike deep into russia with long-range western weapons is not will become a red line that will entail escalation, this has already been reported by the times and many others. stoltenberg rejected the warning of the russian president, here stoltenberg said that he supports the plans of great britain, the french leadership, by the way, it is characteristic that the bureau of the national assembly of france. begins the impeachment procedure of president macron. so, stoldenberg supports permission for the kiev authorities to attack russian territory with their missiles. i would ask alexander for forgiveness for such an allegory, but the secretary general nato, apparently, at the end of its powers really suffered from political color blindness. we all need to see those red lines

the secretary general of the alliance , jens stoltenberg, has finished his work in his post, he will be replaced by former prime minister of the netherlands mark rute. stoltenberg finally gave rute last instructions on what to do in this workplace. however, another departing nature tried to appropriate the laurels of the office hawk. more details, olga ponoma. "the double shift change in the western elites, like the change of black spots in the sun, turned into an outburst of militaristic rhetoric, but the parting words of the outgoing nato secretary general stoltenberg to the incoming trump, to support ukraine and not to be afraid of russia, faded against the backdrop of the outburst of barel, who is serving out his term. i repeated my call to allow ukraine to shell airports and launch pads on the territory russia with western weapons, let ukraine strike". archers, not just arrows, not everyone agrees with this measure yet, but we have promised to support ukraine with whatever it takes and for as long as it takes, and the energy front will be decisive this winter. until the election

the war in ukraine closer if it increases its military aid to kyiv, said nato secretary general jen stoltenbergo will soon leave his post. the secretary general is convinced that the allies will give ukraine as much as possible. weapons, this will force the head of the kremlin to abandon the idea that he can occupy ukrainian territories by force, the paradox is that the more weapons we can provide to ukraine, the greater the more likely we are to achieve peace and end the war, and the more reliable our long-term military support, the sooner the war will end. more than 60 strikes were carried out by israel late in the evening on targets in the south of lebanon. it was the second wave of attacks in a day, lebanese media reported. at the same time, according to the idf, it was possible to hit more than a hundred rocket launchers that hezbollah had prepared to fire at israeli territory. the mayor of zhytomyr, serhiy sukhomlyn, submitted his powers and decisions ahead of schedule was supported by the deputies of the city council at an extraordinary meeting but allegedly did not receive approval from

is concerned, well, let's not forget that... that despite the fact that nato secretary general jen stoltenberg, who , by the way, is leaving office at the beginning of october, has clearly stated more than once that he considers it correct to grant ukraine such permission and such permission and such opportunities, but he is the secretary general of nato, that is, he does not decide what the governments that are actually authorized to do , i will decide thank you for this analysis, bohdan tsyupin, our correspondent in london was in touch with us. meanwhile, lviv is preparing after russian shelling and large-scale destruction of the historic part of the city. seven people died, more than 180 houses were damaged, more than 3,000 windows were broken. a day of mourning was announced in the city on thursday, and doctors are still fighting for the lives of ten people who are in serious condition. among them are three children. yury dankevych will tell more about omylyana chudlyakta from lviv. on the morning of the 9th, the day after the shelling, michnovsky street, near lvivskyi of the station, cont

at the same time, as radio svoboda writes, nato secretary general jen stoltenberg noted that the alliancewill not be part of this conflict. during the press conference on july 15 , the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi noted that the position nato must be unanimous regarding the downing of russian missiles by poland. but he reminded that on july 8 , a security agreement on bilateral security guarantees was signed between ukraine and poland, which provides for a technical review of this. question, but has certain nuances. we started working on a bilateral level, because it is primarily not only the security of poland's nato countries, but simply the security of people in poland, because a missile can hit there, or has already hit. we just have different opinions on this matter. i believe that it is absolutely fair if poland is ours to help shoot down rockets that are headed in the direction of poland. we are talking about this direction, the direction of the gas storage. where he often flies. unknown drones violated the borders of sweden on the night of september 9. there , the larg

in particular , jen stoltenberg shared such an opinion or even an instruction in a speech on the occasion. completion of his tenure as nato secretary general. he emphasized: military force is the key to an effective dialogue, and any future peace agreement must be supported not only by strong military support for ukraine, but also by reliable security guarantees. military force is a necessary condition for dialogue. i have known this since the time when i was the prime minister of norway. we have to talk to our neighbors, no matter how hard it is. but dialogue only works when backed up by a strong defense. this is clearly visible today, on the example of ukraine. we all want for this war to end, and the fastest way to end it is to lose the war. but it will not bring peace, it will bring russian occupation. today, president putin believes he can achieve his goals on the battlefield. and he believes that he can wait for us. therefore, he continues his cruel. i don't believe we can change putin's mind, but i do believe we can change his calculations. by giving ukraine more weapons, we can ma

nato secretary general jen stoltenberg delivered a farewell speech.as for its content, the rhetoric, frankly speaking, is little different from everything that the alliance's representatives have been saying lately. stoltenberg once again emphasized the defense budget of the bloc's member countries. well, if until recently 2% of gdp was enough to ensure nato's security, now, according to stoltenberg, the stakes should be raised. plans to increase military aid, and from his speech, it is obvious that such there are plans, they require more spending. this is no longer enough to guarantee our security, we must be ready to pay the price of peace, the more funds there are, the stronger our defense will be, the more effective the deterrence system, and security will be at a higher level. stoltenberg is ending his career as head of nato with a series of loud statements in the western press. most of them concern calls for help to kiev. during today's speech, he emphasized that kiev needs help. interact with russia with positions of strength, and earlier in an

the un general assembly in new york, the president of ukraine met with nato secretary general jens stoltenberg, they discussed the strengthening of ukrainian air defense and joint efforts for ukraine's accession to the alliance. zelensky's visit to washington is scheduled for tomorrow and meetings with us president joe biden. negotiations with members of congress are also planned. but the speaker of the house of representatives, mike johnson, in comments to reporters, said that ... not sure if the meeting will happen, i don't think we will be in town on thursday, our meeting schedule has changed, it's a lot. dynamic: there's a hurricane coming down the gulf coast, a lot of us are going to be scattered, people are going home because of it, so i'm not sure yet. a new uniform for the ukrainian military. the ministry of defense plans to expand the range of tangible property for the armed forces of ukraine. in particular, they want to sew demi-season jackets, baseball caps, pants with knee pads, one-person tents, as well as summaries for turnstiles and tablets. according to the government officials

from a ukrainian mig-29 fighter jet, also in the footage so far... and nato secretary general jens stoltenberg publicly approved the invasion of the kursk region called it legal. nato for the first time states that it approves the advance of ukrainian armed forces into the kursk region, which belongs to russia. russia has been waging a groundless, aggressive war against ukraine for more than 900 days since then it has carried out numerous attacks across the borders of the iskursk region on the territory ukraine. russian soldiers, tanks of their base are legitimate targets, according to international law ukraine has the right to defend itself according to international law this right is not limited by the border. well, you see how stoltenberg believes that international law is exclusively american law. alexey alexeyevich, why does he make such statements? this is already such a, i don’t know, well, pushing towards the fact that soon they will give ukraine this official permission to use long-range missiles? remember the soviet joke about the bad car 5 minutes by oh, that is 2 hours of shame and

this was announced by nato secretary general jen stoltenberg, who will soon leave his post.secretary general is convinced that the allies will give ukraine as much as possible. weapons, this will force the head of the kremlin to abandon the idea that he can seize ukrainian territories by force. the paradox is that the more weapons we can provide to ukraine, the the more likely we are to achieve peace and end the war, and the more reliable our long-term military support, the sooner the war will end. it worsened again in the capital. and the state of the air, it is related to fires in the ecosystem. in particular , fires were recorded in the vyshgorod district, the city state administration reported. there, residents of kyiv and the region are recommended to temporarily close their windows, limit their time outside, drink plenty of water and, if possible, use air purifiers. he was the voice of the greek catholic church in western europe, helped metropolitan andrey. sheptytskyi and united young people around faith. archbishop ivan buchko from kytlian made a significant contribu

there will be this permission, that's what nato secretary general jen stoltenberg says. since the beginning of this war , russia has threatened us, they have tried to force us to withdraw our support for ukraine, but there are no risk-free options during a war, but i believe that there will be a greater risk if president putin wins, and therefore i believe that we should provide ukraine with the necessary weapons for that putin understands that he will not win, that he needs to sit down at the table before. spoke and find a solution in which ukraine is a sovereign state. of course, zelensky wants a peace in which ukraine wins as a sovereign independent state. and if ukrainians stop fighting, if they stop defending themselves, it will not lead to peace, it will be occupation and occupation. imagine negotiations without russia. president zelensky made it clear that they are ready to talk to the russians, but in order to talk to the russians, they need to have... strong side in negotiations, because what happens at the negotiating table is inextricably linked to the situati

well, if so, then we wish jens stoltenberg the best of luck in his new job, if it will be his new job. well, that's all for me this week, i'll see you next week, don't worry, because there will still be a lot of interesting things on espresso. thank you very much, yuri, this is such a short piece of news, i see. minister of culture tochytsky, he was only appointed, now the minister of culture and communications was only appointed to the position, he already made a statement that artists should be allowed to freely to go abroad for the purpose of popularizing ukraine. i, let's say, as an artist, as a writer, left, but i understand here that not everyone can, because first of all, some may popularize not ukraine, but themselves or even the country of the aggressor, and others may not return at all, that is, well, but the idea of ​​popularizing quality artists of ukraine abroad is certainly a good idea. and also the presenter and writer. my colleague serhii rudenko, and what will be discussed today in the verdict program at 20:00, we will ask serhiy, and i also wonder if you like the ide

but speaking about multilateral institutions, again, with jens stoltenberg, he delivered what seemedlet's say, to donald trump when he told us, "my concerns..." he's leaving his post, as you know, katty, and he said, "my concerns are essentially that people may take nato for gra nted." now, as you said, donald trump did not pull the us out of nato and there is no indication that he would do so. but of course, that relationship became a lot more contentious. i will say that we just also spoke to the kenyan president. he said, "look, we know donald trump as well. we had a good relationship with donald trump. we will have a good relationship with the us because the foundation, let's say, of that relationship goes back so far and is so solid that no one administration can change it." so, clearly, a very diplomatic answer from the kenyan president, which is to be expected. he will have to work with either donald trump or kamala harris, whoever is next in the white house. but what i really think is remarkable here is there's some serious concern among us delegates here, the us delegation,

jens stoltenberg, also a retiring character, already a shot down pilot, who will soon resign from theretary general, nevertheless makes a serious statement, here in his latest interview. the times, he is just trying to rebuff the words of the russian president. let's listen. it is wrong to say that nato allies will become participants in the conflict if they allow the use of weapons against legitimate targets on russian territory. north korea and iran provide russia with missiles and drones without becoming a direct party to the conflict. putin has announced red lines many times, but he has not gone for direct involvement of nato allies in the conflict. he has not done this because he understands that nato is the strongest military alliance in the world, they also understand that a nuclear war cannot be won, and we have made this clear to him many times, well, there are at least three comments here: first, no one has yet confirmed that north korea and iran have provided us with any weapons, second, if suddenly they provided them to us, they certainly do not implement the stated goals,

moreover, the head of the alliance, jens stoltenberg, still wants to disavow the role of nato's participationct clash in ukraine in the conflict, but he says that. there is no doubt that ukraine has the right to hit legitimate targets on the territory of russia, we must not forget what's what, this is russia invaded the territory of a neighboring state, self-defense includes hitting targets on the territory of the aggressor country, in this case russia, i am in favor of easing restrictions on the use of weapons, because i believe that this is the only way in which ukraine can really defend itself. it is wrong to say that the allies, that nato will become part of this conflict. ukraine, according to international law, can defend itself, and we can help it without becoming a party to the conflict. well , in britain, in turn, they are very surprised and are upset that the united states can't seem to give kiev permission to strike russia with its weapons, and without the us's approval, the british can't seem to... go ahead and take that step themselves. biden and his team have made it clear that

well, zelensky is the tiniest pawn in their clip, let's go back to the words of jens stoltenberg, wheres what price ukraine should pay, but my duty, our duty is to do everything, to put everything in place, to give everything, it is not he who decides in washington what price ukraine will pay, and his duty, on washington's orders, is to give everything he considers necessary, does the same, where in nato is this obligation prescribed, it is completely unclear, somewhere in their world according to the rules it is prescribed. as for the money - from that package that biden was knocking out for a large aid package for ukraine, they were left with an unfulfilled budget, and considering that, well, remember, how to spend budgets, the deadline is approaching, and you need to quickly, quickly, quickly distribute this money, otherwise it's all gone, they will burn up, now the situation is that the biden administration will scatter this money on ukraine just so that they come back to them later, and as for long-range strikes, we are somehow fixated on the retaliatory use of nuclear weapons. in

jen stoltenberg called the invasion of the ukrainian armed forces into the kursk region legal.ording to him, ukraine has every right to self-defense. after the bloody coup in ukraine, they began to suppress everything russian related to our language and culture. the country itself was turned into an anti-russian enclave. putin just told schoolchildren. constant provocations by the kiev regime forced moscow to launch a special operation. russia cannot afford to have us under. americans, russia has no hostile countries, there are only hostile russophobic elites who dream of weakening and destroying our country. we have hostile elites in some countries who have been fighting russia for centuries, centuries, not only now with the goal of weakening the country, because they think it is too big. they are threatened by such a big country as russia, they are trying to slow down our development, to drown it a little, and maybe even a lot, some publicly, you understand, i can’t think of anything, in books they wrote in their articles that they were thinking about dividing russia into sep

you value matters to moscow, outgoing nato chief jens stoltenberg says the west will keep arming you, convince putin he can't win. >> isis that he will not get what it wants on the button the total control of ukraine. then he may be willing to accept a solution which is acceptable for ukraine that outcome, no guarantee, but biden crediting vice president harris are standing up to russia and offering this parting shot too. >> but of cracks. >> i decided after 50 years of public service time for new generation of leadership to take my nation forward our fellow leaders let us never forget some things are more important than staying in power we are here to serve the people, not the other way around. >> as president biden works to burnish his legacy four liters are now jocking for their own meetings with vice president kamala harris and former president donald trump either of whom could be representing the us here at the general assembly. next year. so far the only meeting that has materialized as one between zelenskyy and harris, that set for them the white house on thursday. kayla tausch

been no change in our approach i do want to turn to afghanistan because the outgoing nato chief jens stoltenberg said this to our christiane amanpour about the state of life in afghanistan extremely about on the catastrophe, not least for the people of calmness on in particular, women, we were going to live on the conditions-based approach. >> but after 20 years, after paying a high price in rodin pressure we realized nato allies realize united states, realized that we could not continue this just a little more than three, you can react to that if you want, but also just a little more than three years from the withdrawal this is how he is describing the state of life in afghanistan. what is your message to afghans who believed the universe promise that they would be helped and two afghans who are qualified for protective status within the us, but have been unable to get out commitment to our afghan allies, partners is unwavering and since the withdrawal, we have continued to marshal and across the government effort to do everything we can to keep the siv process streamlined, to keep it robust, a

is ready to go that far, it demands nothing you value matters to moscow outgoing nato chief jens stoltenberg says the west will keep arming ukraine to convince putin he can't win here. a license that he will not get the ones on the battlefield, the total control of ukraine. then he may be willing to accept a solution which is acceptable for ukraine. >> that outcome, no guarantee, but biden crediting vital this president harris are standing up to russia and offering this parting shot to autocrats. >> i decided after 50 years of public service, it's time for new generation of leadership to take my nation forward my fellow leaders. let us never forget some things are more important than staying in power we are here to serve the people not the other way around biden works to burnish his legacy during his final months in office. >> now foreign leaders are jockeying and to meet directly with vice president kamala harris and former president donald trump, either of whom could be representing the united states here in new york at the general assembly. next year far they only meeting that's materiali

nato secretary general, jen stoltenberg said at the very beginning of the conflict: we have two priorities, the second is to prevent russia from defeating ukraine, and the first is to avoid a direct military confrontation of world war iii. and behind that red line, if you cross it, is the fear that then russia will either will attack a nato country, provoking a third world war, or... will be ready to use nuclear weapons, how can ukraine keep its pilots, who are worth their weight in gold? the solution was proposed by former british air force pilot grek begoual. according to him , nato should simply establish a no-fly zone over western ukraine. this will allow the ukrainian air force to concentrate its efforts on the combat zone. do you support the idea of ​​nato typhoons, stationed in romania, taking off to shoot down russian cruise missiles, which are flying, for example, on... this is a good solution to the problem, which many rejected too early, because we are talking about establishing a no-fly zone over the western part of a country friendly to us, where there will be no russian. ukra

are unafraid idiots, there are idiots who have no sense of responsibility at all, for example, jen stoltenbergs absolutely wild statements, and before that, when he was quite a lame duck, yes, but let's, let's be honest, by and large, secretary general won is an absolutely formal position, he decides little, but nevertheless, nevertheless, yes for probing the soil, to create such... which can bend the situation, but so far they do not do it, i will explain, as it seems to me, why i have already spoken about this before, you see, they understand absolutely clearly that stoltenberg's words - this is, i apologize for the slanted nonsense, that russia is a very, very dangerous enemy, this is a highly literary definition of what the table carries, yes, i agree, this is even a compliment in this case, so they perfectly understand the potential of russia, the capabilities of russia when planning any such... kind of actions the enemy comes from in my opinion, not so much from our statements about red lines and so on, but from our real possibilities, because if a gun is hanging, and even if you are sur
