how would you like it, well, as the minister of defense ? look. , you want my personal opinion . the question is of course the best candidate and the minister of defense. well, as an official, you understand, as a person who will perform bureaucratic procedures, who understands bureaucracy and so on. bodanov is a really professional officer. he performs combat tasks, but the simple question is that the ministry of defense needs a person who will be a professional. yura crater is a bureaucrat, you understand an official who understands procedures, contracts, legal features, er, well, on a large number of issues that the military does not understand, i do not know how professional bohdanov can be as a minister of defense, he has to er, show experience he himself has to give himself an answer like and i can be the minister of defense if he thinks that transport is ok, you understand . i understand perfectly well what kind of team, what kind of support, how professional is he, he is a bureaucrat , i don’t know. well, maybe maybe the representatives of

according to which, during the period of martial law , a serviceman in the rank of first deputy minister of defensean be appointed lieutenant general or vice admiral because in the law on the approval of the regulation on the ministry of defense of ukraine it is clearly written that both the minister and his deputies, including the first deputy is appointed from among civilians, at the same time, two other candidates, who are different, he proposes to appoint as his deputies, they are precisely from among civilians, this is vitaly deinega, a volunteer, a public figure, the founder of a charitable fund, come back alive , most likely he will become the deputy minister of defense for digital transformation, he has already confirmed that he is currently very close before the appointment to this position, andrii shevchenko was a people's deputy of the fifth, sixth and seventh convocations, the ambassador of ukraine in canada, and more incredibly, he will become a deputy minister defense on issues of european integration, well, that is, he will engage in military diplomacy if the government approves his

yes, in russia it is directly written that the head of the minister of defense there is a president ofussian federation, we have different branches of government, democracy, and our situation is not like that, we have a prime minister and a minister of defense - this is a member of the government. therefore , these topics are not just a violation of the law violation of the constitution, and tomorrow how this law was passed so quickly, they want to consider it in the committee. i am conducting a discussion in the committee , including many norms. this is our discount. what the minister of war said is a violation of the constitution regarding the subordination of the minister to the president, and they give me an explanation. what are you looking at, too? supreme the commander -in-chief is subordinate to him, the military, i believe, no, in our country , the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine is not of the unknown ministries, but of the armed forces , so he must lead the armed forces and this a logically democratic explanation, many of our colleagues do not understand the

rammstein with the participation of the ministers of defense of the anti-putin coalition , the minister of defense of ukraine oleksiy reznikov e.e. lloyd austin, the minister of defense of the united states of america has already said that that uh rammstein will help ukraine to go to the counteroffensive in the spring he said this in the opening speech before the start of this uh esteemed gathering we will hear lloyd austin all countries from around the world continue to increase efforts to consider new solutions together this contact group clearly states that we will support ukraine in its struggle for the future we will help ukraine to move to the counteroffensive in the spring, our unity and our speed of instant editing, we will do everything possible so that ukraine gets what she was promised we are helping the ukrainian armed forces in training in order for them to become more effective on the battlefield and we know how to do it today we met here to coordinate our contributions to ukraine and also to continue to embody our unwavering long-term support for ukraine from all of the w

of air defense and three ammunition depots of the enemy. meanwhile , a meeting in the rammstein format will take place tomorrow, this will already be the ninth meeting fifty defense ministers of the world who support ukraine in the fight against russia, and it is there that the issue of providing heavy weapons and aircraft to ukraine will be decided, meanwhile, the russian army continues to lose manpower and equipment in ukraine, as of the morning of february 13, russia has already lost 138,340 people in the last day alone, the armed forces of ukraine have destroyed 560 orks since the beginning of the great war , the russians have already lost in ukraine 3,283 tanks , 6,492 armored fighting vehicles, 2,290 artillery systems, 465 rocket launcher systems, 234 means against air defense 296 airplanes 286 helicopters 51,150 units of automotive equipment 18 ships boats 857 cruise missiles - 2007 drones 270 units of special equipment about the situation that we face in the eastern and southern on the fronts about the infernal ugledar about expendable troops for putin and also about what to expect from the predicted attack of the russian federation on ukraine and from rammstein -

of defense. at the moment, there is a reaction. the ministerdefense of ukraine, oleksiy reznikov, announced the restart of the anti-corruption department of the ministry. defense of the introduction of the mechanism of public control and after the potentially corrupt scandal, i will constantly add potentially because until we have this fact proven in court, we have little to say about it at all yes, representatives of the public will also be involved. as i understand it, mr. fedore, and i emphasize again that mr. reznikov became a minister in our country, remind me in 2020 on the 21st, even on the 21st, even on the 21st, and we cannot know whether was this time enough or not enough in order to completely clean the ministry of unreliable staff there, for example, it cleans something to avoid any manipulations of fraud with money, but what happened, what happened, in your opinion, the proposal of the minister of defense now will help to somehow rationalize and still make it more transparent and a cleaner procurement process for our military, what

, in fact i want to say that the minister of defense is definitely important, but we must understandt, again, several years ago there was the separation of the positions of state civil servants and politicians is accepted. the minister is a political person of state servants, such as the state, for example, the director of the department or department or department is appointed by the state secretary, therefore, in fact, it is definitely probably it was not done without a minister, but i want to say that you need to look , including at the positions in each ministry of the state secretary, who signs, conducts competitions or does not conduct competitions and appoints people in many state bodies. unfortunately, these positions are sold. and uh, this is the worst what can happen during the war, because we need qualified personnel and very patriotic , nationally minded, and not just sold positions. tourism, i remember him from those times, uh, from the crimean times, 200, somewhere in the seventh or eighth year, he never dealt with defense or weapons. why did he get the position of a pe

of air defense and three ammunition depots of the enemy. rammstein, this will be the ninth meeting of 50 world defense ministers who support ukraine in the fight against russia, where the issue of providing heavy weapons and aircraft to ukraine will be decided meanwhile, the russian army continues to lose manpower and equipment in ukraine, as of the morning of february 13, russia has already lost 138,340 people in the last day alone , the armed forces of ukraine have destroyed 560 orks since the beginning of the great war, the russians have already lost 3,283 tanks and 6,492 armored personnel carriers in ukraine machines 2,290 artillery systems 465 rocket systems of salvo fire 234 means of anti-air defense 296 aircraft 286 helicopters 5,150 units of motor vehicles 18 ships boats 857 cruise missiles - 2007 drones 270 units of special techniques, about the situation that is developing for us in the eastern and southern fronts, about the infernal ugledar, about expendable troops for putin, and also about what to expect from the predicted attack of the russian federation on ukraine and from rammstein - 9 we will talk about all this in the next hou

of ministers. at today's meeting for the position of first deputy minister of defense , the hero of ukraine, lieutenantleksandr pavlyuk and two more deputies, because the candidacy and that's how it is possible to be a little louder p artur, i congratulate money, but the question of those appointments , well, in the context of civil democratic control, it has its own additional feature, because now according to the law on national electro -democratic civilian control on social security and defense, where is the definition of this civilian democratic control, the minister of defense and his deputies are appointed from among civilians. this law was the result of a very, very long work, when we moved away from the practice of military ministers of defense, uh, since 15-16 years. however, now, in a slightly strange way, we are returning to it well, i don’t know, it wasn’t properly communicated or substantiated , and it goes against this legislation , so i don’t understand why exactly this way was chosen to appoint absolutely certain people to this position, but this is a systemic issue and compliance with

but in any case, you mentioned the armament for these planes and by the way, the minister of defense said that we will give planes, but maybe later after the war , but he talked about the possible transfer of long-range weapons to ukraine. and in this context, experts and the military began to say that it is possible that these british cruise missiles storm shadow can we talk about sights palliative solution when these missiles can be adapted to our platforms that our air force has you understand harrym you still need to receive and process the appropriate signal yes you need an additional block and storm shadow it is already french skype yes there you just need to hang it, it is filled with information about where it should hit the route, which means it is the type of detonator, that is, it has a penetrating , which means a detonator that first blows up the wall and then the main charge flies in it explodes inside, which means that all the information is pumped into it before the start, and the main task of the carrier is simply to raise it to the appropriate height and there to the

of ukraine on foreign policy and inter-parliamentary cooperation ms. maria good day good afternoon, ms. maria, what do you think influenced the fact that minister varshnikov remains in the chair of the minister of defense, this is a public wave that came out in public to defend the minister, well, at least what i see in my facebook bubble, there are a lot of people who spoke out in defense, they say it’s not the right time. or are these some other reasons for ms. lesya andriyu? well, i think that partly natalya has already said it , but i’ll tell you frankly what i think is the most important thing for the state right now, not personnel issues. and na on the agenda is that i, for example, our faction demands the return of salaries to the military, this is preparation and how we are preparing for the next attack by the russian aggressor , uh, how we are preparing everything that concerns the provision of the security sector of defense. and i am not talking about the fact that we have to work on the fact that the russian er-e publicists and this and the representatives of the opzzh have already left the ukrainian er-e parliament and therefore for me the priority issue is the return of salaries to the mil

defense sector, but something went wrong. i mean the news about the resignation of the minister of defense oleksiy reznikov resignation it didn'tpen at least so far, but the way this news spread yesterday from officials, i'll note well, you saw it first, the head of the servant of the people faction, davita rahamiya , announced another personnel change in the highest authorities, in particular, he announced the resignation of defense minister oleksiy reznikov to be replaced by reznikov, he said the army is coming kyrylo budanov, the current head of development, and oleksiy reznikov, said that arahamiya is being transferred to the position of minister of strategic industries before the word. this news surprised even more because many months consecutively in political circles they are talking about the fact that they want to liquidate the ministry of strategic industries in general, but the story did not end there, and a couple of hours passed when oleksiy reznikov late at night announced that it was the president neither the ex-prime minister nor the prime minister offered him to head the ministry of strategic industries, and ev

commission of such active existence of such schemes or processes, i think that in fact, the minister of defense reznikov conducted an excellent on-plane formation of those weapons packages that are received by the armed forces of ukraine, in this the minister's functions are performed on a solid five or a solid 12, depending on e-e evaluation system, but it is obvious that there are problems with the internal kitchen, which is happening in the chichi- is it being cooked in the ministry of defense, that is, for example, now the situation is in such a way that of course, such a stand-bad e-e announced the adoption of personnel decisions it is obvious that the decision to resign the reznik was also under the influence of certain emotions, after that there was a reassessment of this decision , because we see the real situation now , president zelensky is in great britain, he just arrived, and tomorrow he will obviously be in brussels at the european union summit these are simply absolutely important events that determine in fact the future of ukraine, the future of the armed forces of ukraine in re

are no reservations here, that is, if they were not corrupt at all, i am clarifying the best minister of defenseit is impossible, because under all the ministers of defense, our military industry declined to one degree or another . that is, you and i cannot remember for 30 years what happened in principle in the development of the army , any minister in one way or another somewhere was he involved in the sale of property there, land plots, well, that is, the army was rising, let's remember the 14th year, that is, we have by and large a large number, i remember in the lviv region in those zils and so on , they simply were without batteries , some of them were without engines, that is, we had little how did they differ from the russian army over the period of 8 years? we did increase the potential, but the entire ukrainian community invested here , taxes were introduced accordingly, remember yes, there two and a half percent seems to be from salaries, and pensioners were also paid by the military levy. well, they seemed to be plus or minus at the same level, and when varshnikov headed the ministry

so, another meeting of defense ministers in the rammstein format. lly used to such prestigious meetings at the level of the minister of defense. usually, up to 40 countries participate. this time there were 54 and more. indicates the expansion of such an anti-russian coalition, defense minister oun austin said at the beginning of the meeting that this contact group clearly indicates that we continue to support ukraine for freedom in the long term at the beginning of the actual these were the words at the first press conference, he did not detail what exactly would be transferred to ukraine , and then there was already a final conference based on the results of the first day's work, and actually then autumn said that certain directions would be expanded and actually when he was asked about those things that were primarily of interest ukraine of journalists, in particular, regarding the airplanes. then he said that he is not ready to make any announcement regarding the airplanes. we continue to work on this issue, but first of all, we take into account

of many military personnel. by the way, not only mr. budanov can be a minister or can be offered the position of minister of defense. have a lot of professional military generals who have demonstrated extraordinary effectiveness on the battlefield, and any of them may also be proposed by the president, and in this case, the fact of qualification , the ability to perform the entire range of powers that belongs to the competence of the minister of defense is definitely not in question , it is only about the need to take into account the military situation above in order to more effectively ensure the functioning of this vertical in the system of the ministry of defense well, the fact is that then we also had a war in principle, so it is possible not on a large scale, there was no war state, but the war was in the 16th year. well, we are not talking about the minister of defense , we are talking about the prosecutor general and the war to the prosecutor general. a person was appointed in principle, the scheme remained. i think i will tell you that in addition to mr. bohdanov, several others were considered . of course,

area, then he is guilty, that is, according to any e-e elementary concepts yes that is, the minister of defense least for the time of the investigation there, submit an application for suspension, but we see a situation where the minister tries to save because he has some of his own direct connections, etc., believes that any person who is a patriot of our country should behave with dignity even in such terrible situations as mr. reznikov found himself in. therefore, one should not show off the presence of his connections and resign from office and understand that this happened under your leadership in the institution of the transparent system prozoro will be it is enough here for the anti-corruption supervision of this ministry, it is now very important for us, the ministry of defense. anti -corruption legislation, we have enough bodies that are engaged in the detection of e-e crimes on the subject or the presence of corruption, so here you just need to behave objectively, you need something that can be returned to transparently return it and not hide and e-e perform your functional obligation

of defense. i will remind the ministry of defense. by the way, this is the ministry of defense some kind of cyclical nature of the previous minister taranhe heads of the deputy departments were also accused of bribery and the waste of funds related to the nutrition of the armed forces of ukraine. i will remind you that the previous resignations also related to this story to taran. during yanukovych 's time, stories appeared from time to time that something was wrong with us in this area, that is, it is the most corruption-prone area , it exists, no one denies it, i hear this story from various sources, but she was not something that was hidden from the general , from the expert investigator of the investigative community, that is, they knew to talk about her, but time is gaining, and the right time is in quotation marks when it is brought out. this story is picked up on the surface and strengthened and this time coincides with the fact that the leadership of internal affairs is headed what is happening in the media, in fact , a confrontation or a struggle between counterintelligence and, er, the main intelligence department of the minis

have a new tactic, this is a concentrated creeping attempt to capture 10 m to push back, the minister of defenseaine explained the risk that the enemy will attack again from all sides , according to the minister of defense, they are not watching last year, the russians were advancing from all sides with tank columns , i quote today, we have an understanding of where and how many troops are concentrated in them. yes, we see that there are certain concentrations, but for example we are not observing anything extraordinary in the belarusian direction, this does not mean that it cannot change at the moment , we will account for up to 12 thousand russian servicemen there, and there is also a corresponding amount of equipment, minister noted that now the most serious group of the enemy is concentrated in the east and in the south, that is about the situation in the south. we will now talk in particular what is happening in the de-occupied part of the kherson region or in the still occupied yuriy sobolevskyi , the first deputy chairman of the kherson regional council, contact us yuriy, we congratulate

but social networks are boiling on the internet, the possible resignation of the ukrainian minister of defense alexei reznikov was first announced, then analyzed, and in the end, it seems to have been canceled in the government offices of the government cabinets changed their minds, defense minister alexei reznikov will not be fired from his post , said a member of the national security committee for defense of the verkhovna rada , maryana, the head of the faction, the servant of the people , david rahami, announced the resignation of the head of the defense department. he may be offered the position of minister for strategic industries, reznikov himself said that he had not received such offers. and if he had refused, the aforementioned servant of the people would have refused, of course, also in social networks explains the issue of resignation this week i will not consider reznikov, assess the risks of a quote before ramstein and a possible offensive. that and where it comes, however, did not specify. however, this does not matter. the main thing so it is said, because at the end of january

deinega and shevchenko as deputy ministers of defense so this is tuyu, the founder of the fund will bringtaly deinegu appointed deputy minister of defense for issues of digital development, transformation of digitalization, former ambassador of ukraine to canada andriy shevchenko became deputy minister of defense for issues of european integration well, this morning oleksandr pavlyuk was recently chief of staff, deputy commander of the e-e of the ground forces of the armed forces of ukraine e.e. announced that he is taking up the post of first deputy minister of defense of ukraine as well, i.e. in the ministry certain personnel changes are taking place, which should accordingly affect the quality of the work of this strategically important ministry during the war. well, we are moving on. and in connection with the geleva sad studio, for the expert of the georgian center for strategic analysis, we congratulate you . glory to ukraine. well, what would we like to ask you? about the armenians, so to speak, the azerbaijani peace plan, do you have a feeling that these countries can reach a cert

someone thinks that he will be a very good procurement manager, including on the part of the minister of defenselly, one thesis. well, bezugla already said that they will change . you know what we are discussing now . if i am not mistaken, muzhenko was going to some meeting and on the way he was hit in the back. the news that he is no longer the commander-in-chief in the world, what was filmed, well, i listened, he can get to rammstein and come back with no one and the theses that arahamiya spoke well, listen, if the minister whose people are suspected of which people are suspected of being part of the corruption component, instead of khodim, his resignation is simply transferred to another the position, that is, whether the effectiveness of the corruption component is being moved from the ministry of defense to another ministry, well, to be honest, well , this speaks of the level of evaluation, who voiced it , i am now talking about the servant of the people, of course erachems and it’s hard that he doesn’t have both deputies, now the tyshchenka has been multiplied by zero and this halimon some

in the ministry of defense in the management of the management of e-e this bureaucratic structure, and usually in nato countries, the ministry of defense is headed by civilian ministers of politics , why this is done, so that there are not several centers of command of the armed forces of the armies and that there are not two or three general staff of the ministry of defense, the position of the commander -in-chief, etc. that is, this is already a well-established practice, and ukraine is still in a state of war . moreover, there is a certain danger in this when several command centers appear kirill budanov is a military man, a military man who already has a lot of experience, despite his relatively young age in the army structure. well, accordingly, it is quite logical for ukraine to have a civilian minister of defense even in war conditions, but a high-class manager is also a separate issue. of course, this is the control of corruption in the ministry of defense because until now we see that at least the public procurement system itself in this information is not fully reformed, there are still loopholes for corruption to attract companies mediators from the orbit

and the ministry of defense in general. the story with the minister of defense himself, he met held a closed meeting with journalists and the anti-corruption public association about the purchase of products for the military, here are the consequences of this the meetings and journalists and representatives of the anti-corruption center are talking about it. the widely announced close of the meeting has ended. the meeting in quotation marks is closed. for some reason , the meeting with journalists and the public association. what has changed is the meeting, absolutely nothing, because at this stage, no matter how much varshikov tries to repair relations with society, it is already does not play does not play the role trust is lost this is what the head of the legal department of the cpc olena shcherban, who was also present at this meeting as a minister, how the minister was preparing until the meeting, if as a result he was not ready to name the prices at which products are now supplied to the military and admitted that he does not know a clear answer to these prices, when and

in the rammstein format, at which the which arrived and took part in them, respectively, the minister of defensef the leading euro-atlantic countries, and of course our minister of defense oleksiy reznikov. this is an extremely important story, and we will definitely start the current informative and analytical hour with this event. so to speak , we will sum up the interim results, and we will sum up the final results together with the minister of defense of the united states, lloyd austin, well , the inclusion will be a little later, yes, in the studio are working and on valevska yes somewhere at 3:30 p.m. announced at least the closing press conference, the results from lloyd austin, we are all waiting . well, for now, we will remind you if you watch us on youtube or just want to join our team to become closer. we invite you to support espresso journalists, you can become by our sponsors on youtube or with the help of patreon, see the link right now on the screen, it's qr-codes, everything is very simple and easy, please join our espresso community and for this you will get access to the backs

on how to do it better during the meeting of foreign ministers of the affairs of the eu member states, he said this today before the meeting of defenseministers of the nato member states, according to the chief european diplomat , the european peace fund is an extra-budgetary a government body that has enough money to support ukraine, which can be used to finance the provision of military aid to ukraine, at the same time, mr. borel reminded that so far 3 billion 600 million euros have been allocated to ukraine from this fund for the purchase of weapons that ukraine needs. putin continues the media continues to change his generals as i change my socks and that means he has problems john kirby, the coordinator of strategic communications of the national security council of the white house, said this during a briefing the day before according to him, during the year of the war, the kremlin did not manage to solve the problems within its underarmy, mr. admiral kerby believes that the president of the aggressor country, putin, makes wrong decisions, and his worst decision was to start a large-scale invasion of ukraine a year ago, which di

tomorrow the ninth meeting of ramstein begins, where there will be various in the status of minister of defenseparliamentary faction, the servant of the people david arkhamia, already moved him to the position of head of the strategic ministry of strategic industry and talked about the fact that kyrylo budanov would be the new minister of defense, then they rolled it all back and said that no no no it is possible to carry out such personnel changes before rammstein. now we are talking about changing the current legislation in order to appoint general budanov to the civilian position of the minister of defense of ukraine as in your opinion, the personnel attempts at personnel reshuffles affect our negotiations with our western partners and how confident will the different people on ramstein 9 feel tomorrow, considering the fact that, in fact , in the information space, they have already begun to send him out of office, well, look, frankly , from how confidently he presents himself or how unsure he will present himself on that rammstein or stay there independence depends on him absolutely nothing

take a closer look at the security programs to ensure the defense of all countries and international security alliances well, meanwhile, the ministerof defense of ukraine oleksiy reznikov wants to dismiss his deputies ivan rusnak and oleh hajduk, and to appoint oleksandr pavlyuk to the position of first deputy minister, to the position of deputy minister for digital development , and to appoint volunteers vitaly dainegu to the position of deputy minister for european integration of the former ambassador andrii shevchenko, they are what concerns the deputies who will be removed from their positions. so, they will remain in the ministry's team and will be involved in the work as advisers to the various ministers. he said that he has already submitted candidates for the positions for the president's approval, after that approval should take place by the government, according to the minister, this is not the last step in the reboot of the ministry of defense, the next changes will be presented in a few days, currently the minister of defense of ukraine is in germany for another meeting i don't know the allies of ukraine in the rammstei

volodymyr, what should we now expect from a certain first deputy minister of defense from minister oleksiynikov, so to speak, who remained in office, but we understand that it was extremely difficult for the media company , new additional deputies appeared minister of defense, we understand that the ministry of defense has prospects for development now, but we would like your expert opinion, mr. volodymyr, from the last time journalists asked reznikov, he said in an interview that he himself the president asked him to remain the head of the ministry of defense, he says that was the decision of my president, answering the question of whether he will remain in office. well, you know, for different reasons, the situation is difficult here. the fact is that his resignation would put all rammstein partners in a very awkward position, especially with such a lot of corruption imagine how to report the minister of defense who participates in rammstein to his voters , these are political nominees and, let's say , reputational. i think that it was all the same the understanding of the partners, firs

there is the next minister of defense. i am missing one thing. his is not the first scandal in the procurement of the ministry of defense after 2014. they are always in our country with a frequency of once every three years. now in this discussion, that is, i see a discussion there about whether to fire varshikov or not to fire who will come after reznikov, i did not see it in this discussion, but what will happen to the procurement system so that there is no more opportunities to steal budget money on potatoes and eggs, you understand, and this is actually a great tragedy for our country, because parallelism and discussion a-a who does not know that in january, the government had to consider the draft anti-corruption program prepared by european experts , ukrainian experts together with the national agency for the prevention of corruption, and there is the defense sector in this program and here in this defense sector there are clearly written tasks for the ministry of defense to ensure that its procurement system is professional and that the per

has already met with the minister of defense of ukraine is catching autumn metth reznikov on the fields of rammstein 50 more than 50 participating countries have joined you in this struggle, the minister of defense assured his ukrainian colleague of support, he wrote about it on twitter in his wrote the following lloyd austin always it's nice to meet my good friend and ukrainian colleague oleksiy varshikov, more than 50 member countries of the contact contact group on the defense of ukraine stand with you in this struggle for ukrainian sovereignty and self-defense. well, this is the ninth meeting, i'll remind you , in this format, it takes place in brussels well, according to the ukrainian minister of defense , among the main issues on the agenda is the protection of the ukrainian sky, including through the involvement of an aviation platform, the development of a tank coalition, the formation of a reserve of strength ammunition training programs for the ukrainian military in literally 40 minutes we will broadcast it live and loytochkin will give an initial samp

people faction, has already announced that oleksiy reznikov, who currently holds the position of minister of defense, will be transferred to the position of minister of strategic industries to strengthen military-industrial cooperation. major general kyrylo budanov will head the ministry of defense . ihor klymenko will become the head of the ministry of internal affairs, the head of the sbu, vasyl malyuk, and in principle, as he wrote a little later in his telegram channel, arahamia, these values will take place in the field of defense during the week, the appointment of the heads of the ministry of internal affairs and the security service of ukraine is expected this week, how do you think these staff rotations will affect our negotiations and our relations with western partners, because we know that on february 14 there will be another meeting in the rammstein format, we know that an announcement will be made ahead of -the provision of a large package of weapons aid to western countries. well, the russian offensive on ukraine is expected, how will all this affect the internal situation in ukraine

of defense. is it the prime minister of britain who receives the president of ukraine today?hings the prime minister of britain on the sunok river is so about some practical things that have already been outlined at least in specific terms , we will continue to support ukraine to ensure a decisive military victory on the battlefield this year, we understand that when a specific time appears and a specific the term means that immediately er narrows well , i don't know the number of names of weapons that we can handle in this time, we should already have one second, third and fifth, should we shield this signal as a solution in particular great britain should provide us with more than what they have already offered, maybe challengers or something else and from tanks, or maybe it’s time to raise your eyes to the sky and talk about aviation. what did president dmytro talk about ? it did not change, they occupied it constantly, they will help until the last, and in this regard, they are one of the locomotives, will they provide aviation, i am not sure about this , unfortunately, u
