a new concept of strategy for ukraine. it specifies that such a strategy should be multi-year, developed with specific and achievable goals, and prioritize the national security interests of the united states. how do you assess this concept of strategy for ukraine, how will it work? indeed, this requirement of an innovation was not in the document adopted by the senate, but the bill provides flexibility for the administration in this matter and gives it. the ability to keep certain information classified, so no administration is needed to come out and say, we will give this brigade 10 tanks, and we will give ukraine 12 atakams to destroy this base, and then they will leave. there is no such requirement. however, the clause pushes the biden administration toward a more proactive strategy to more clearly define its goals. the united states provided historic support to ukraine throughout this full-scale invasion, but it was not enough for ukraine to prevail. and it was not enough in time, it was not the necessary things, the

this is about prospects of ukraine's membership in nato, but what ukraine needs already is this weaponry, and this was repeatedly stated by the minister of foreign affairs dmytro kuleba in brussels. i would hate to spoil nato's birthday, but i am forced to speak on behalf of ukrainians about russian air attacks on my country. about the destruction of our energy system, our economy, murder. to civilians, and i called on the allies today to provide ukraine with new additional air defense systems. well, such requests were later answered by the general secretary nato jen stoltenberg said: allies feel the urgency of ukraine's need to strengthen air defense and are looking for resources. and we are in touch with the director of the security studies program of the analytical center ukrainian prism, hanna shelest. welcome to the air, that's ukraine. received at this meeting with representatives of nato countries, what are the key results? well, for now we can't talk about the results, they are stretched in time, we will wait. yet the july summit, but certainly what we have already seen is a chan

and we are our glorious ukraine. several hundred ukrainians and americans are gathering on the capital hill. these are the participants of the ukrainian action summit. their purpose is to promote the promotion. washington for kyiv, more aid, more weapons, for this ukrainians and pro-ukrainian americans are meeting with congressmen and senators. in the congress, there really is a princely court. you need to know how to behave, you need to know how to go to those meetings, to have the most positive impression and to know how to talk about things, and how not to... saying what not to do, part of it really is how to handle yourself, part of it is how to prepare, what you need to know about your congressmen, about your senators, and how you can learn those things so that you know how to talk to them , what they are, what they care about, and then with that information, they can find connections to ukraine, after the two-day. preparing for the meeting with politicians, the participants of the summit are divided into groups

united states about support to ukraine?will ask these questions and more today. we are pleased to be joined in person by great group of speakers including the liberty chief ambassador in the czech republic, welcome. thank you for being here. we will be joined by benjaminhaddad who's joining is virtually from paris or i don't know where you are. he's a member the national activities of france. i'm joined by deborah keegan, senior advisor at the u.s. center. a pleasure to have you here and ambassador john hurts, senior director at the council of euro asia center. make sure to send your questions and follow us online atx. with that, i would like to begin with you the first question. as i said, the czech president was a hero at the conference when he mentioned check efforts to find -- to supply -- to find on international markets and ensure that ammunition can be provided to ukraine. over 10 countries have agreed to bite and fund more than 1.5 million rounds for ukraine. what is the status of this initiative and what does the p

helping ukraine meet its urgent barrel needs, and helping ukraine build a future for us to stave off and deter russian aggression over the longer-term. over that first track, replaced especially hard today to rush in more air defense systems and interceptors. and on the second track, this contact group is working with ukraine to help it move forward robust, efficient and self-reliant defense. much of this work is taking place in the contract group -- contact group's new coalitions. they are looking for ways to further strengthen ukraine's capabilities and they are identifying where and how to boost ukraine's capabilities in areas such as air defense, airpower, artillery, maritime security, armor, information technology, demining, and uavs. i am grateful to all the countries heading up the capability coalitions that are now up and running. now, when this contact group first met at ramstein air base, i said that putin never imagined that the world would rally behind ukraine so good. and surely, and they said that this coalition reflects a government world. it still does. the nations of

but she doesn’t give her money to ukraine, she gives your money to ukraine.n addition, the newly adopted legislation by the house will allow biden to place frozen russian assets in a special fund intended for ukraine. it will contain $8 billion in assets that the us government simply stole from russian citizens without trial. we don't like you, so we take them for ourselves. this money is currently in the accounts of american banks. and the fact that this money is given to ukraine, even there is no cynicism, simply. this is america, look, and today we must not disappoint those who want what we already have freedom, freedom to self-determination, freedom of our sovereignty, freedom to choose our allies and our own form of government. some will say that we first need to deal with our border. the russian-ukrainian border is our border. exactly. the same democracy that abolished elections. and after the vote, the majority of members of congress showed how close our relationship is now with ukraine, starting to clap their hands, rejoice and wave the flags of a for

ukraine is a tool.aine is a tool for trump to sink biden's ratings and to show that he is an active president in terms of foreign policy. well, while the united states of america is solving the ukrainian, so-called ukrainian issue, regarding financing and regarding. the opening of this large tranche of 61 billion dollars in the european union says that it is necessary to expand and speed up military aid to ukraine, in particular to provide an additional air defense system, the head of eurodiplomacy josep borel wrote about this on the social network x, he said that there will be a meeting of the council in april eu ministers, and what borel wrote, i expect bold decisions at the joint meeting. of foreign affairs and defense of the european union on april 22 with dmytro kuleba and rustem umyerov, the european union supports ukraine with all its might. that's when they they say that the european union supports with all its might, in ukraine it is perceived a little differently, because if borel is thinking

and send them directly to of ukraine.ogram is a long-term program, and weapons do not hit the battlefield immediately. now, today , minister osina was asked how long it will take until the moment... this 6 billion worth of weapons can get to ukraine. lloyd austin said that it all depends on the type of weapons, because we know that this tranche includes ammunition, and artillery systems, and shells for these artillery systems, and accordingly he said that the weapons will come according to how quickly they are produced american companies, and he also said that for his part he would do everything to make it happen as soon as possible. from previous experience, maria, we know that it can take several months, from a few months, to a year, or even more than a year, to send weapons under this program. julius, before this rimshtein meeting today, president zelensky emphasized: ukraine critically needs patriots. is the us encouraging european countries to share these capabilities? how is this issue progressing now? yes, today pr

so, you arrived in ukraine at the end of may 2022. how is the situation in our country different from the current one? the current situation is radically different. when i came to ukraine in may 2022, the streets were practically empty and there were roadblocks everywhere. when i was driving then, i saw a lot of destruction. now, despite two years of russia's brutal war against ukraine, i see incredible progress. 50% the occupied territory was recaptured by the brave defenders of ukraine. ukraine was able to. to export food through the black sea ports, sending more than a thousand ships, that is, more than 33 million metric tons of grain and other cargoes, and during two very harsh, but incredible winters, ukrainians were able to save energy and electricity for the whole country. these are really great achievements, and despite russia's military efforts, we see that the economy is not only... "it is growing, it is talking about 5% in 2023 and projected growth in 2024. it is obvious that this is a difficult moment and a difficult situa

the war in ukraine may be coming to an end when the house leader brings up aid to ukraine for a vote. this was stated by us president joe biden during a joint press conference with japanese prime minister fumeu kishida at the white house. the president thanked. poni for cooperation and, in particular, for supporting ukraine and the decision to allocate more than $12 billion in financial aid to kyiv. fumio kishchida, announcing the joint the us-japan-philippines summit, in particular regarding russia's aggression against ukraine, emphasized that japan takes the problems of the russian war very seriously and expressed determination to continue strict sanctions against russia, as well as constant support for ukraine. we will talk more about fumya ukyshcha's visit to washington. to the studio from the white house. greetings maria. i congratulate natalya, i congratulate our viewers. what is the purpose of this visit, what is its peculiarity and what did the parties manage to agree on? natalia, this visit is extraordinary. this visit of the japanese prime minister to of the united states, a

let's move on to the issue of corruption in ukraine. once said that in order for western investments to come to ukraine, we need to have an independent judicial system, free mass media and the absence of corruption. is there any progress in these directions? i will say your president, who represents your people and your democracy, has set an ambitious goal to integrate into the eu and nato. a strong democracy is especially important on this path. important components of which there are dynamic and free societies, an active civil society, strong institutions, a system of checks and balances, and an independent judiciary. this is the vision of your president, who reflects the interests of your people, and we strongly support you in this. in this vein, we supported and continue to support all the steps that were taken to solve some of the problems that exist in ukraine. this is the fight against corruption, raising the level of corporate governance to international standards, and reforming the justice system. all this is very. important fo

of ukraine with the european union. valentin, i congratulate you, thank you for being with us today. good evening, glory to ukraine. glory to heroes. mr. valentin, let's start our conversation on the issue of nato, because yesterday nato secretary general jens stoltenberg came to kyiv with an unannounced visit and... judging by what president zelensky said following the visit, ukraine will not be able to become a member of the north atlantic alliance until victory in the war against russia. let's listen to what he said president of ukraine. in my personal opinion, we will be in nato only when we win. i don't think that they will take us during the war. in nato, for some it is a risk of nato members, for some, some people simply have skepticism because of it. the issue of nato is a question, the secretary general incorrectly said, it is a question of the majority, and the majority is a political question. and to take political ukraine into the alliance. this requires victory. so, sir. as far as i understand, ukraine has

and here there is also a problem with the trust between ukraine and the usa, but ukraine is fully tryingen up, and you know that robert storsh stated that 50 criminal proceedings have already been opened with the help of the usa, that is , in general, on these 113 billion allocated through the pentagon, through the state department, through the development agency, and if you look at these proceedings, it is, shall we say, grassroots like that corruption, there are incomplete declarations of cargoes through poland, or there are poor-quality goods, lack of goods, that is, it is not political corruption, so here we just have to say that the mechanisms should be strengthened, but we see the political will at the level of the leadership of ukraine, and we see that there are no major corruption scandals in the defense industry at all and there is no data when weapons sent to ukraine ended up not there, but abroad. well, actually, recently. the world street journal published an article in which it is written that there are doubts whether it will be enough do ukraine have the resources to implem

ukraine prevented an fsb agent from escaping. he was detained near the front line in the kupyansk direction. the collaborator wanted to take the position of the occupiers. the russian occupiers were waiting for him, he had an agreement that he would work for the fsb on temporarily occupied luhansk region. the traitor is in custody, he faces up to eight years in prison. a fire in omsk, russia, where three oil tankers were burning. ignition area. the fire has already been extinguished, the russian ministry of emergency situations reports. two fire engines were involved in extinguishing the fire. the causes of the fire are currently unknown. meanwhile, the russians actively finance the armed forces of ukraine. in a few months, residents of the kemeriv region transferred millions of rubles to the accounts of the ukrainian army. the local governor blamed cyber fraudsters. i wonder what residence every day ukrainian special services attack and extort money, so the managers of all enterprises were obliged to conduct explanatory work. me

defense of ukraine? in fact, it will be seen, probably, best for ukrainian fighters at the front or defenders in ukraine, in general. we can only talk about certain ones numbers, and that, quite, quite mysterious. for example, of the 1,600 declared ammunition in this so-called package, named. strike, so-called missiles and anti-aircraft missiles, how much of those 1,600 are, for example, stormshadow cruise missiles, we don't know, but ... probably small, because we know that britain and france, these missiles are a joint development , do not have very many such missiles, they are very powerful, but very expensive, that is, one such missile costs more than 3 million dollars, and today, in particular, about the price, about the price of war, about the price of weapons, the british prime minister spoke in warsaw, the capital of poland. next to nato secretary general jens stoltenberg, who emphasized that the allies actually have no other choice than to invest more and more money in defense. the reality is th

results of the meeting of the ukraine-nato council in brussels. on the doorstep of the parliamentary crisis, the verkhovna rada is losing the trust of ukrainians, why are the draft laws on mobilizing the prohibition of the moscow church and others in question? we will talk about this and other things for the next hour our guests, people's deputy of ukraine mykola knyazhytskyi, military expert valentyn bandrak and head of the board of the institute of world politics viktor shlinchak. however, before starting our big conversation, i suggest watching a video of how at night... on april 4, russia launched several waves of shaheds on kharkiv, as a result of a massive attack, three rescuers and a civilian woman were killed, unfortunately, and 12 more people were injured , let's see how it was. ok, ok, look at me. thank you, thank you very much, windows, that's all the glass, everything flew out, there is nothing, wow, quiet, quiet, friends, we are working live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms. if you are watch

zelensky to visit ukraine. apparently, they had a very, very good meeting when president zelensky was coming here. it was very warm with a lot of support for ukraine's position from president miley. and i i think one of the goals of zelensky, who came here for the inauguration, was also to get an opportunity to meet with other leaders of the region. he was able to meet with the presidents of uruguay, chile, and ecuador. we hope that this can help the region's position regarding ukraine. it would be appropriate if president miley paid a visit, if he demonstrated to other countries, set an example for other countries to follow this initiative and be more involved in public and practical support of ukraine. despite the meeting of volodymyr zelenskyi with other politicians of the region, currently, javier miley is the only openly pro-ukrainian leader among the countries. of latin america, says christopher hernandez roy, an analyst at the center for strategic and international studies in washington. so miley's visit

in ukraine.hat nato�*s looking at is a nato mission for ukraine, not a nato mission for ukraine, not a nato mission in ukraine. it is making sure that we use nato�*s architecture to help deliver some of the support that ukraine needs. but fundamentally i think that we should do everything we can to help ukraine. that has been britain's position. i think it is not escalatory to say we are going to help this independent sovereign country to fight off an aggressor and we will help them to do that. you don't see the prospect of nato boots on the ground in ukraine? ma. boots on the ground in ukraine? no. i think that boots on the ground in ukraine? firm i think that we don't want to give putin a target like that. and nato can do lots of things to better co—ordinate the help we give to ukraine. but fundamentally for countries like britain and those supporting ukraine, this is a question of political will. do we have the patience, the will, are we prepared to give the resources. in britain's case defini

security service of ukraine exposed the fsb agent. the man served his sentence in a correctional colony in zhytomyr oblast. he recruited other convicts for subversive activities against ukraine, the sbu said. after being released, they were supposed to travel to several regions to track the geolocations of the defense forces there and help russian saboteurs. the attackers were also supposed to collect information about the protection of critical infrastructure facilities. in particular. water utilities and energy companies. in order to carry out the enemy's instructions, the person involved had to form an agent group and support it communication with her via messenger. currently, the investigators of the security service of ukraine have informed the suspect of suspicion under article 111 of the criminal code of ukraine, which is treason. the indictment has already been submitted to the court, the perpetrator faces another 15 years in prison. recognize the moscow church as terrorists. and ban its activities in estonia, this is proposed

we we support ukraine. return. seven more children came home with their families, seven more children left the temporarily occupied territories of our country with their families, these are families from the zaporizhia and kherson regions. this was reported by dmytro lubinets, the human rights representative of the verkhovna rada of ukraine. according to him, ukrainians witnessed real russian crimes, in particular, looting and forced passporting. in addition, the invaders could mobilize teenage boys, who should soon become of age, for the war. ukrainian the party provides the returnees with all necessary assistance. in poltava, in one of the churches of the orthodox church of ukraine, volunteers collect aid for the military. in particular, they weave camouflage nets, our correspondent anna morozova saw the greatest need now for additional workers sent to the front. see in the material. former. clothes, it's bedspreads, it's, well, agricultural fiber, knitwear. mrs. elena, on the first day of the full-scale

and to protect the interests of ukraine and promote the interests of ukraine. yes, of course, six months have passed, the decision has not been made, the aid has not been approved, but... the process, the process is going on, and of course there is disappointment, and disappointment within the ukrainian diaspora as well, we have had a very long time of disappointment time, but today such a note of hope ignited, when we decided to urgently convene in the house of representatives and , after all, put this document on the aid to israel on the agenda, of course we we hope that this will all be a package together with ukraine, and why do you hope so, and why do i hope, because i... agreed with iran to make a massive attack on ukraine, so that the republicans finally unblock the congress? as you say, mrs. miroslava, it will be one package, it won’t be, or ukraine will simply be thrown out with israel there, a decision will be made and that’s it, well, there are several signals that this aid is indeed, the question of aid will be, will already be put to a vote next we

ukraine needs much more.id to ukraine, as well as about the transfer of measures available on the territory of the countries. they spoke to the air defense today and during the meeting of the foreign ministers of the so -called group of seven, which we are still used to calling the big seven, it is happening now, today it took place on the italian island of capri, and here is an interesting thing before its start about the need to transfer as many air defense systems as possible to ukraine in order to secure the energy structure of ukraine, the head of european diplomacy also spoke. borel, what did the chief european diplomat say? let's listen. we cannot rely on the united states of america alone. it is necessary to take responsibility and stop saying that the states will do everything. we ourselves must do something. we have patriots, we have anti-missile systems. we should take them from our warehouses, where they are just in case, and send them to ukraine, where the war is ongoing. i'm sure we'll do it, bu

, which provides for less funding for ukraine. and again, if this petition gets the necessary number of votes and the house of representatives votes this version of the bill, then it will... return to the senate, and there it will also have to be voted on again, mike johnson earlier, he spoke about the conditions for providing assistance to ukraine, about a loan, that's what what an initiative, indeed, the speaker is now refusing to bring up this big national security funding bill that has already been passed by the senate, while at the same time he is proposing some alternative solution, what that alternative solution is, it is not yet known, because we haven't seen the text of this draft law yet, while in the past you... he said that there is, he has such an intention, and he says that there must be certain innovations and changes before aid is issued ukraine, in particular, is concerned with three points: firstly, it may be about financing ukraine through confiscated russian assets, and he said that if it is possible to legally

ukraine must provide itself with soldiers. ukraine has just passed a new law on mobilization.ired number of men, then we must help financially. normally , he pushes for mobilization. yes, let us recall that earlier, the nato secretary general admitted that the alliance’s assistance to ukraine made it possible to weaken russian combat potential without endangering nato soldiers. by allocating a small portion of our defense budgets, we allowed the ukrainians to destroy a significant portion of russia's combat capabilities without putting a single nato soldier at risk. or not a single american soldier, well, stoltenberg wants to save his own world exclusively, at the expense of the lives of ordinary ukrainians, aleksandrovich, but this answer from stoltenberg is, first of all, how to regard it as a response to emmanuel macron, who made a loud statement some time ago about what he thinks about sending troops into ukraine, that is, what stoltenberg wants to say , that please, under the guise of a united european contingent, yes, but nato no, because they are already different. cons

ukraine will prevail in this war. ukraine will get nato and eu membership. no other option on the table, steven. and this is ourjoint fight for the future of the humanity. i am not exaggerating. we have to end there. arseni yatsenyuk, i thank you very much for being on hardtalk. thank you, stephen. hello, there. some beautiful rainbows spotted again on thursday, particularly across parts of scotland, such as here in aberdeenshire. and there will be more rainbows on friday with sunshine and showers still very much the theme of the day, but lots more dry weather to come in the forecast as we head through the weekend and into the start of next week now with high pressure starting to edge in from the west, killing off some of those showers by the time we get to the end of the afternoon. it's a cloudy, mild start to the day across england and wales, it's a little brighter further north across scotland and northern ireland, the focus of the showers gradually shifting further southwards as we head through the afternoon across the midlands, down through central sout

for ukraine. i think what that is leading to come as ivan has written brilliantly about, it is a reassessment of what ukrainian victory or defeat looks like, focused less on the idea of territory and more on the geopolitical orientation that ukraine can have. the idea of ukraine that can be part of the west, can be part of europe, can be part of nato rather than simply focusing on territory. the second interesting finding is to deal with the european debate about security and defense. we have seen a huge turnaround in the figures for spending on military support. which is, i think, echoed in a lot of the polling we have done. we heard from nato that of the 23 united -- european union members of nato they will be on track to present by the time of the nato summit and collectively the europeans are to 2%. putin deserves a lot of credit for that shift and trump should also take a share of credit for that. not the least because of recent rhetoric. then the final thing that is most interesting is what

president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi. about what the head of military intelligence of ukraine told german journalists. see further in our story. ukraine needs long-term support from partner countries in the fight against the russian invaders. every day for more than two years, towns and villages in different regions of ukraine have been suffering from the armed aggression of the russian federation. kharkiv and sumyshchyna are currently suffering the most. the kremlin wants to make them. unfit for life and subdue. russia bombards kharkiv every day with various types of weapons several times a day. every day and every night , rockets and shahedis fly at peaceful kharkiv. civilians and energy infrastructure. international publications predict a likely second attack on the city. therefore, the ukrainian side is considering the option of forced evacuation of the population. the situation in sumy oblast is no less threatening. the russian federation drops guided aerial bombs on cities and villages. civilian infrastructure comes

and uses ukraine to threaten russia.army lieutenant colonel joakim paasikivi said that russia will take great risks if it considers the west to be weak. at the same time, ex-ministers of defense of great britain are ahead. that the country's government does not was able to prepare for a possible war with russia, as an effort of the entire nation, writes ukrinform. the british publication the telegraph writes that in the event of a potential russian aggression, the north atlantic alliance will not be able to quickly deploy its troops. bureaucratic delays at the border and logistical problems can prevent this. in the same article, the retired general of the dutch army, hans damen, did not rule out that russia could attack a nato country. will do it in his usual style. i 'm afraid that if there really is a threat, russia may not attack europe, but may accidentally cross the border of poland. ukrainian experts also do not rule out the possibility of russia's appetite for nato countries, but only under one condition, if the w

until the member states of the european union give ukraine the seven patriot complexes that ukraine ising for. 515 european legislators voted for it, only 62 spoke against it. it is noteworthy that this issue was not even on the agenda today, it was not until it was proposed during the meeting by a deputy from belgium, the former prime minister of this country and a very good friend, our guy verkhovstat, how he convinced his colleagues, let's hear him directly. during the last 20 days the russians are shelling ukrainian cities, hospitals, power plants, residential buildings. and i consider it a scandal that europe, which opens the door for ukraine and the european council, is not able in such a situation to make a decision to send a certain number of anti-missile systems to ukraine. there are 100 patriot complexes in europe, as mr. ukrainians ask for only seven, and we europeans invite them to the european union and the european council, but we cannot do it, so i propose not to consider the 55 questions of the budget until we give ukraine these systems pat. well, by the way, this propo

we have heard the words of president biden, that ukraine's victory is a condition for ukraine's accessionain, not a specific victory, but the kind of victory that is seen in the west. i have already mentioned that the great powers have not won a single major war in the last, last 100 years, if we talk about wars with smaller, less prepared, less economically and militarily strong countries, and at the end of the day the west, the west reacts to that . that the reflection takes place outside the borders of the west, great powers react to changes in the world, and because of this they continue to be great powers, due to the fact that they are adequate. evaluate the realities, no one foresaw the possibility of the baltic countries joining nato, but there was a will on the part of the political elites and the majority of the voters of these countries, and the moment came when it became also acceptable for the event, in the end it was even profitable, that is, it is very important to know , which is our goal. what is ours, our agenda not only for one day, for and for one year, for several deca

and the sale or at least the re-export of weapons to ukraine, and he blocks it.zh, literally just one minute, how would you predict the search for the patriot system for ukraine in the short or medium term, what can ukraine optimally count on... according to your estimates, unfortunately, again the situation depends primarily on the usa, if the usa still adopts its general aid budget for ukraine, then the question is to take the patriot, get the missiles to them, they automatically disappear, this opens up the possibility of increasing the necessary amount of ukrainian funds, in the conditions of the us blocking aid to ukraine, this is... a very difficult issue, maybe in europe they will be able to collect really one, maybe two batteries, this is in the short term, in the future, of course, they can say that well , now one, now the day after tomorrow two, and then we will find more there and there, but this can be later, of course, with such an aim for the 26th-28th year, mr. leger, thank you very much for your professional comments, for your time, let me remind

for the first time , a polish group of cooperation with ukraine came to ukraine after the governmental elections in poland. visited as parliamentarians from the diet and the senate, they were warmly welcomed by the ukrainian co-chairs of the group, people's deputies mykola knyazhytskyi and artem kovalev. for us, cooperation with poland is extremely important. left when we talk about our european integration, about our military cooperation, about our support in international organizations. unfortunately, we had a time when that cooperation slowed down a little bit, we had a lot of things that upset us, like the border blocking, now i think we're in a time where we're going back to the great friendship stage again. in principle, we consider the platform of the friendship group as a powerful mechanism of parliamentary diplomacy, and as a powerful... mechanism for discussing the problems that exist now, as well as a serious start and platform for development between our countries. during the two-day visit , the polish guests saw the tripoli thesis destroyed by the russians and honored ukra

to us and ukraine private sector investment is needed, which means that ukraine must resolutely eradicateruption. mrs. victoria, how do you assess ukraine's steps to decisively eradicate corruption and what peni pritzker is talking about? you know, it seems to me that in this matter we should divide the anti-corruption reform, the issues themselves, yes, and only then the efficiency, as it is reflected in practice, because on the one hand, we really fulfilled all the requirements of the european union, we voted very hard. requirements for both declaration and independence of the anti-corruption infrastructure and infra, sorry, anti-corruption bodies in general, such as the nazk, the sap, which today is already separated from the gpu, nabu, of course, which today, well, they announced suspicion to a rather serious official who, who is called close to the office. .. of the president, that is, in principle, we see certain results of this work, but the fight against corruption is certainly a broader and more global concept, and therefore areas of control, areas of transparency, transparency t

regarding the plans of the armed forces of ukraine. yes, statements about a possible counteroffensive by the armed forces in 2024 have been heard repeatedly. what is happening now, we are talking about striking the territory of the occupied crimea, we can say that in the nato classification, similar actions of the defense forces of ukraine should be considered as the first stage of the cascading nature of the planning of the deoccupation operation. temporarily occupied crimea, and, as some military experts predict, a possible strike on may 7 on the crimean bridge, as far as it is likely, well , considering the fact that we remember that the big strike was on this structure, which interferes and is redundant in to the kerch strait, as general budanov said, it was already october 7, on putin's birthday, or? is it possible that such an attack on the crimean bridge is possible on may 7? i do not rule out, let's talk about the fact that it was not accidental that a blow was inflicted on places of concentration of anti-missile defense system

putin himself killed this ideology in ukraine a long time ago, starting the war in ukraine on february24, 2022, the large-scale offensive of the russian occupiers, destroyed everything that was in its ideological space and in the information space before that's what the kremlin tried to build, and judging by the fact that... after the re -election of the sixth or fifth president of russia, or during these pseudo-elections, putin decided to recruit the russian orthodox church and force this church to work before the federal security service and in general in front of all that ee his entourage, which ee... generates all the ideologues of this racism, russian fascism, now they are taking over and activating a branch of the russian orthodox church in ukraine, including, although, although, in the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate, which by 2022 in the 19th year , she did not give up her connections with the russian orthodox church, and only in the morning. in the 22nd year, it held some kind of council there and apparently declared some kind of independence, so the uoc c
