Moment he was in touch with us, and here are the combat vehicles the infantry in reds provided by the United States of ukraine for support in the actual war with russia have been taking an active part in the offensive of the armed forces of ukraine on the southern part of the front in the zaporizhzhia region for more than a month. During the offensive, the equipment repeatedly received damage from explosions on fragmentation mines and tank hits, as well as from anti tank missile systems, the correspondent of radio svoboda showed and told about their work. At the end of july, they evacuated already 80 units of Armored Vehicles from the battlefield, as the majority say, it seems that the device has been returned , see the details in my report colleagues of roman pagulych. I am the commander of the bradley combat vehicle by position, and the slash is the commander of the division , that is, i worked both in bradley and worked with the infantry. Well, i was in a hurry and we went to landings and minifields were also used. But again , it is impossible to say which is better and which is easier, because it is a complex complex of actions and a complex of means without which it is simply impossible to win the war, the equipment is involved when we are sure that we can safely to go to the place, for example, of the landing of the Landing Force and or to the place where the equipment can work safely in the enemys positions, it is used as an evacuation and as a suspension of the Landing Party and as an assault unit, that is, well, it is very, very multifunctional, well, if we had our bmp bradley, someone comes with time and it is one breakdown today. You already understand how to eliminate it and you understand there what can cause this breakdown and without wasting time, when we leave, we do an inspection of the car and after the combat task, we also arrive and check to make sure that everything is normal i have already been through two explosions on antitank mines. Well, i was a little concussed, but thank god everything is fine, the first time there was a Landing Party inside, everyone is alive and well, and the second time there was no Landing Party. But there were medics, we went to evacuate the boys. It is very difficult to find the cause, we are restoring lets say the area is systemic, that is, we dont climb inside. And if it is purely mechanical damage, they are easier to restore because it is, as it were, mechanics. It is always mechanics, you see it, you feel it, you can stretch it, drag it, remove it, rearrange it, and in electricity, so you understand. If you ride alone somewhere you left, you tried, it wont work, it wont end and so, in principle, we have, well , lets say 90 , we have restored the equipment, who else actually goes to work if at the beginning of the offensive of the 47th brigade in the south, most of the equipment is it ended up being repaired with minor damage to a field one, for example, this is the back of time, and with the course of the offensive and its duration, a large part of these bmps have not only combat damage, but also technical malfunctions that need to be quickly advanced, the equipment is not new , we all understand that the gearboxes wear out. You understand everything. Each part has its own resource. If you notice, they have rubber pads on the track. They just tried to get to the metal, that is, the guys are working , they drive a lot and it is trying, that is, it is already wearing out, we will evacuate and repair it. Lutsenko and back to the front, oh history, this is also a series of measures from reconnaissance of evacuation security to preparation of the crew of drawing up routes because it takes place between minefields, people must clearly understand the algorithm of actions in this day, preparations are underway. Yes , evacuation is already being carried out at the right opportunity. Well, a lot has already happened you yes well, plus or minus about 80 units, normal people who love their work, they understand why we do it , they understand that the sooner we refuse , they repaired the equipment because it got to the front, saved lives and brought our victory, you are watching the freedom of the morning project, we only have important topics and important guests. Therefore, do not miss this in particular. He first stated that ukraine can gain membership in nato by ceding territories to russia, and then explained what he meant by the head of the staff of the secretary general of nato, called the mistake and his assumptions about territorial concessions in favor of russia, the official explained why this happened lithuania will temporarily close two checkpoints on the border with belarus the reason for the change in the geopolitical situation and the threat to National Security with what specifically related to such a decision of the lithuanian authorities and how it can play against minsk itself, your likes, comments and subscription to the Youtube Channel of radio liberty, welcome, and also share this video with your friends if you are interested in the assumption that ukraine could become a member of nato and instead refuse from part of its territories in favor of russia. This is a mistake. This is how the official of the alliance, the head of the staff of the general secretariat of the walls of jensens, explained his statements to the norwegian publication vg and confirmed the correspondence of radio svoboda, he noted that the military situation on the ground and control over the territories will become central to possible negotiations between ukraine and russia, at the same time he emphasized that only ukrainians need to decide on what conditions they are ready to negotiate, my statement about this was part of a larger discussion about possible future scenarios in ukraine and i should not have it was a mistake to say so, if you get to the point where you can negotiate, then the military situation on the ground, who controls what, will be the central problem and mandatory will have a decisive influence on the possible outcome of this war, jansen noted that at the moment there are no signs that russia is going to end the war, and nato is instead interested in ukraine receiving security guarantees after the end of the war. General secretary Steven Jensen suggested that ukraine would be able to obtain membership of the alliance in exchange for part of the territory. In response to these words, the ministry of Foreign Affairs of ukraine emphasized that talks about ukraine joining nato in exchange for relinquishing part of ukrainian territories are absolutely unacceptable. Nsdc secretary Oleksiy Danilov called this statement strange. This is a quote. Mykhailo podalyak, adviser to the head of the office of the ukrainian president , replied that such a decision would be a loss of democracy and an encouragement of a global criminal to destroy international law. Transferring the war to other generations this was also a quote, the country is working to increase the vulnerable production of drones, which the Ukrainian Military needs this was stated by ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyi in his video address, in addition, zelenskyy says that systematization of what is already supplied to the military and used is necessary, and the military at the front needs drones of different ranges and for different purposes. A guarantee that people will not have to pay with their lives when it is possible to work with drones , in fact, everything that they talked about with the boys the day before in Donetsk Region in zaporozhye in our combat brigades now have jobs with the city of the general staff and government officials and kirill of the season in the political scientist of the Tactical Unit thunder joins our broadcast. I congratulate you. Good morning. Im glad to see you. Thank you for taking the time, mr. Kirill. Well, i still want to dwell on the words of the nato official about territorial concessions in exchange for membership of the valynians. What do you think, is this really one of those scenarios that are being talked about in the west . There is no reason to be careful about this. This is, of course, this is a big stupidity. What he said. If nato agrees to accept new members on the condition that they lose the war and give up their occupied territories, then what is the point of this alliance . Question and it rather lowers the reputation of nato and not ours. And i believe that it was bros such a test, how will society react , how will diplomats, the leadership of ukraine , the ukrainian people react, how will the citizens of other countries react to such a testing scenario conducted therefore, an official person said this, but not the one who makes the decision, the chief of staff, well, what are the results of this test from your point of view of ukraine, but understand that this option will not pass, no one will accept it, everyone is categorically against everything, the topic is closed and what other scenarios can there be in nato in order to end the russianukrainian war, because even in this justification, this official says that negotiations should definitely take place, but from the positions of which positions. Let tautology even there will be russian Ukrainian Forces and who will actually be able to offer what at these negotiations. Or, nato may still have scenarios. It is clear that we will not reach vladivostok and there will be negotiations, but zelenskyi has very clearly indicated the conditions of these negotiations this is the liberation of the territory of ukraine , and then we will sit down for negotiations and er , we are discussing the punishment of war criminals and the compensation of reparations for what was destroyed here , its simple. And what can nato do to strengthen support for ukraine, well, first of all, change it ukrainian ports should be freed from shipbuilding by military means by diplomatic pressure, but ukrainian ports must work, it is necessary for the ukrainian economy , it is necessary for ukraine and ukraine is working on this, these corridors are already trying to make the first ship, the first amount has already left izmail and is already on its way. Well, it seems without obstacles , nato should also join in this, and this applies not only to grain, but also to other ukrainian exports. Ports this is the first thing that nato can do, this is the first thing that turkey is prilovych about the increase in the production of drones , which president zelenskyi said the day before, is not too much time lost in this context and why did not they begin to take care of this issue much earlier, or did they start, but simply about this ukrainian the society was not informed, what do you think, look at drones they are weapons of a really new generation, no one considered them even in the 14th year as something so important, and russia and ukraine and ukraine nato in their military strategy used drones very small, such a modest place, this intelligence is not key. It is our task to strike at some objects in the rear. The drones will be used so widely on the front lines. They have become really such a serious weapon that affects the situation and now everyone considers drones as a weapon as a serious weapon and they are trying to make as many as possible and we and russia , unfortunately, also lancets Eagles Eagles for reconnaissance lancets for the task so now everyone has reorganized very quickly and is making drones, because i, roktar, was ahead of everyone , and it seems to me that it is not difficult to make them , especially with a friend, scouts, there needs good optics, a little survivability, and kamikaze drones are simply made with a primitive motor a primitive camera, they can be forgiven for collecting in the garage only in small quantities, we need to produce oil from them, but now in terms of weapons, they are much more significant and the one that is expected in ukraine, which is already officially talking about the fighter jets of the air force that by the end of the year ukraine objectively will not receive f16, and next to that , vice Prime Minister m. M. Vereshchuk also wrote a post that literally went viral in the mass media about the fact that the war will not end until next spring even for the next year, most likely all these promises and words that everything will end are not true, please Ukrainian Society, which before that somewhere understood that the war was going on, but there were hopes that it would end sooner nato, as i said, we will always be we will provide support arms and there with these planes is delayed and now it actually becomes clear that ukraine is not getting these planes so quickly, how long will this all last and what should the Ukrainian Society prepare for . Which vereshchuk actually vice Prime Minister kivereshchuk about the fact that this war is for a long time, what Ukrainian Society needs to understand and what to prepare for from your point of view, how long it will last and what it will depend on lets be sure that our the partners are unjustifiably delaying the process of transferring aircraft, just like it was with tanks with artillery and highmaxes, well, this well, i will not say that they are criminals, but they are still going to beat us all until they well, they will bring it to the finish line, these discussions will give something, because without support it is very difficult to advance in the air without dominance in the air and the military and nato understand this, its great why the same biden drags on for so long i dont understand what concerns the end of the war of our victory when will it be the date that someone always calls speculation, no one knows for sure, it was expected that it would end in the fall or at the end of the summer, what did you expect that we would reach the borders in the fall without air, without some crazy resources, it is unlikely, or did anyone think that they would reach kyiv and we capitulate it its also incredible, that is, it will be for a long time, when it will end, no one can specifically say, its a war here , forecasts are a very ungrateful thing, mr. Wings , well, probably faster forecasts, but taking into account the situation there, kupyansk, according to the Ukrainian Military, became one of the Priority Areas for the army of the Russian Federation, they are throwing reserves there, they are also trying to gain a foothold there, how high are the chances of the forces of the Russian Federation to be successful in this direction. They can and have removed, and this is a priority for them , the couping priority is logical, because if they take kupyansk or at least kupyansk zlovi, then they will be able to create kharkov to the north and slavyansk to the south and kramatorsk, thats why they are throwing everything they can at kupyansk to advance there, but our guys are holding the defense and along the oskol river and further south there is another direction, the guys are holding on and the final question is short. The ministry of finance of the United States has announced the introduction of sanctions against three companies, we are talking about kazakhstan russia and slovenia, which facilitate the arms trade between moscow and north korea, how dangerous can cooperation between moscow and pyongyang be in the context of the russianukrainian war . Well, we understand that the canyon has been under sanctions for a long time and in order to somehow influence them , we need to build a dialogue calmly without chinese support. Should enter into a dialogue with china, because it is maintained at the expense of china and russia thank you for this inclusion for your analysis kirill of the season in the political scientist a fighter of the Tactical Unit thunder was a guest of our broadcast we talked about the situation at the front and also about the excesses of ukrainian officials about the fact that the war will last for a long time Chinese Defense minister li shanfu arrived on an official visit to belarus to meet with his belarusian colleague Viktor Khrenin the Belarusian Ministry of defense informed about this the day before before that , the chinese minister also visited russia, where he took part in the moscow security conference, lily shanfus trip will last almost a week in belarus, the chinese minister has scheduled meetings, visited several military facilities and negotiations with the ministry of defense of belarus for the discussion of bilateral military cooperation in fields of mutual interest, this was a direct quote , the ministry of defense of china informed about it the day before. By the way , the minister of defense of vietnam and russia also visited belarus which was reported by the Belarusian Service of radio svoboda. And this tour of li shanfu coincided with the calls of poland and the baltic countries to strengthen the borders with belarus. In particular, lithuania decided to close two of the six checkpoints on the border with the public lithuanian broadcaster lrt reported to belarus that such a decision was made in lithuania. Due to the threat to National Security and geopolitical circumstances, this is also a quote. They may belong to the wagner mercenaries stationed in belarus and the threat of increasing illegal migration. The checkpoints will stop working from tomorrow, august 18. Besides, the government is considering other scenarios. Protection up to the complete closure of the border with belarus, reports the minister of internal affairs of lithuania, agne bilotaite, and emphasizes that such a step, if necessary, should be accepted by all countries of the region bordering belarus. And these are lithuania latvia and poland. Meanwhile, the activities of the wagnerites in belarus became more active. And the company is registered as an Educational Organization , the registration address coincides with the probable location of the wagner factory in belarus, that is , the osipovets district of the mogilev region , the main and only activity of the company declared educational, in particular, advanced training courses for learning foreign languages, computer courses, survival courses, religious training in public speaking and speed reading, i would like to remind you that wagners fighters moved to belarus after the socalled prigozhin rebellion at the end of june, according to media reports, a tent camp was set up for them in osipivtsi district next to the already existing military unit according to the Monitoring Group belarusian districts, which monitors military activity in ukraine. At least 11 columns of mercenaries from military equipment, the belarusian government declared that the wagnerians would train military personnel Yevgeny Prigozhin himself registered his own yura in belarus as a Property Management company. Came to belarus on an official visit. Belarus, in military terms, before, well, in the last few years, in particular, was not so strongly visible on the world stage what has changed now and to what extent does this visit raise the image of minsk in the military sphere in the eyes of the World Community and does it , in your opinion, legitimize even more lukashenka himself in the political arena . Here you can mention the applause of the trc, who ruled belarus together with china, about the affairs of the traditional military confrontation with russia, but now , as i see it, this visit says more about the fact that it was found, which is being done from the first to fly to moscow to the kremlin and types after to lukashenka, and now in the military circles of belarus there is such a coresort together with russia, of course, it looks from one side , as can be seen from the russian direction, when belarus also perceives china as part of that russian of the president , and on the other hand, if they had already shown this is where these promotions are happening in panza, this is from poland , and that goes relatively to the end of the borders. We will talk about it more and we will talk in more detail later, but still, i would like to stop. What about this visit . What could be the results of this visit . Well , i went to see the military units there. About some agreements that may in one way or another affect the geopolitical situation in the world, in particular, on the issue of the russianukrainian war, so how can this visit end , well, this is unknown, i cant Say Something here, er, on this video, it was from one on the one hand, this is being implemented before, as i said, before the growth of Chinese Military cooperation, it was much earlier than before, on the other hand, the joint russianukrainian war , well, on the other hand, it is in the aquarium of the war, and all this is perceived in the context of the wars of sisters should become so in in the context of the constitution, and this context is so precautionary, and it is possible that it will also be discussed, and this is also the issue that you have already raised. From the point of view and from that analysis and actually what did you do, it is connected exclusively with the wagnerites and with this migration that they are talking about, is there anything else possible that europe knows about and sensing the danger and in this way well, it hints that it is possible that here we are now two checkpoints can we close the border altogether if the threat level is even higher, it seems to me that nato is in this country, but this is such a good, uh , informative opportunity, because they talked about the law on the part of belarus before, and especially after the beginning of the war it is so clear and well and poland, they are interested in having more support from other partners. 15 european or american troops may be stationed there. You can ask, for example , that the president of poland would have said there about the deployment of trump in poland, that is, they understood how it was, only that it was relevant for america. That is, where they are now wagner its so good eh opportunity remind eh remind nato also what to watch eh i will do to belarus here is ivan here that is the most support and eh for and now here is the closing of checkpoints this is the first and only some palatishnitsy there pressure this is primarily an economic pressure. It was about this that there are checkpoints between belarus and poland, and this will be issued by angels between china and europe, and of course, it is special during the war, when transit to ukraine or prinames is very, very difficult. Of course , transit directions are also very important for china. And therefore, by starting this pressure, you will threaten the thread and poland, after that, they put pressure on china, on other Asian Countries that are interested in normal experts and normal transit of the routes of the territory of belarus , belarus and the european border, and yes , thats it, they still have this signal for teachers, what please that is, it is the poles, because it is already dangerous for us. And of course, beijing would like everything to be normal on the rotpyv border without any escalations, but regarding the wagners themselves, they are still continuing this topic in belarus we have already talked about it, the wagner group Educational Organization appeared, at whom this education can be aimed and from your point of view, and what does such a move mean, it is also some kind of legitimization in Belarusian Society in order to give them status or what is it for no, it seems to me that this is a registration, it is some kind of normal registration of a person, if you conduct some economic operations in some country, that is, a state, and then you also need a person to somehow keep accounts there, and thats why we see the registration and immediately its some yaroslav wet a psychic was in russia before and of course in belarus, how are you in russia, eh, the activities of military companies of private books are legal , eh, thats why if you cant register and about tamagner with the purpose of setting up people somewhere abroad, eh, whos a panel, thats it you are looking for some forms there, look for Educational Organizations, you, uh, types of activities , what did you say there, together with the art, well , it looks like this, so much black humor, when bach was looking for recipes, all kinds of activities, well , they look just so, so funny, some there is oratory with automata, that is, it doesnt seem like it, its just like that, the registration of ira, a person, it doesnt affect some kind of public mood in belarus. Its clear. I thank you for taking the time to actually join our broadcast. I would like to remind you that vadim muzheyko was in touch with us this is a belarusian expert network.
