I would like you to assess whether the organizational structure should change, whether approaches to the use of western Armored Vehicles should change in comparison with exsoviet models, and whether our teams of battalion brigades know how to optimally use foreign equipment or sometimes tanks, so that i have spoken with some officers who say that it would be very good if, when Planning Operations , the Brigade Commander or Battalion Commander was always there is a tankman nearby who will give advice on how to optimally use the tank to really achieve the goal and have less. So explain your vision foreign equipment, tactics of use, basic structures, and the optimal approaches for the actions of our commanders . The presence of Foreign Technology should definitely affect the tactics of using this technology, because we are getting more powerful tools and in order to use them with the greatest efficiency, we must change. Approaches to using these tools, but, unfortunately, now the situation is such that Battalion Commanders become officers who either graduated only from the military department and then served for some time, or did not even serve, and their professional growth took place already in the last 20 months, or before with this they. Took part in the antiterrorist operation, and after that, in the operation of the joint forces, that is, there was a completely different nature of combat operations, and this is such a category, which is the level of the brigade headquarters, the level of battalions, it is not capable very quickly absorb all that information and all those changes that are necessary for the correct one. The use of foreign equipment on the battlefield, and those officers who declare that it is necessary to have specialists in the brigade headquarters, who will participate in the planning of combat operations, that they should know the capabilities of the equipment, the differences in the equipment, and that there should be no planning there the participation of the entire company, which will be concentrated in the area there and advance in one line, and that foreign equipment is usually used in pairs in rolls, when one tank covers another tank, that tank it moves when it takes an advantageous position , performs tasks, those that stand in support of the infantry, after that it begins to cover the second vehicle, and begins to move, that is, these are all the processes. Unfortunately, they do not always take place in a timely manner for retraining, and there is another problem, it is necessary to send, when we send personnel to train the battalion, it is necessary to send for training not only the Battalion Commander, the battalion chief of staff, and all tankers, but it is necessary to send and several officers from Operational Department of the headquarters. Brigade, at least a deputy Brigade Commander or a deputy chief of staff of the brigade, so that people understand what they are getting and how to organize combat operations as best as possible in order to use the potential, it is just as necessary to change the staff structure, why, because we must have for a fullfledged organization and the conduct of hostilities, the Battalion Headquarters does not consist of five people, but the Battalion Headquarters consists of 2530 people, but for the brigade headquarters, there we are talking about completely different numbers for. Unfortunately, so far we have these problems are solved very difficult, that is, in fact, the management link is too narrow, a bottleneck in order to digest the large amount of information that is currently on the battlefield, to plan correctly, to optimally use the capabilities of each model of equipment, this is how it turns out, and here i am, we now have about 1015 new weapons samples coming to each brigade at the same time, but in order to tie it all into one knot, and to organize it all, in a timely manner, but without errors, it takes quite a lot of time , unfortunately, we have this time no, now we will see a parallel video where the fifth separate assault brigade uses tanks, cv90 armored personnel carriers and btr13 in this. Option, when the tanks provide cover, then the armored personnel carriers and the bmp carry out the landing, then the tanks cover the departure of these combat Armored Vehicles, this is the point tactic of use, as far as it is now the most common, as far as it is optimal for breaking through these forest strips, other areas where the enemy is entrenched, so this is the most optimal, the most expedient, but again it depends from place to time and from the ability of commanders to organize such interaction, unfortunately, this is not yet a mass phenomenon, although in the last two or three months after the analysis of those combat situations on the battlefield that took place in june and july, there are very serious changes going on, why, because experience, after all, it is transferred at absolutely different levels, including at the level of operationaltactical groups, at the level of brigades and at the level of battalions and companies, that is why, the further , the faster such changes will occur and efficiency will increase. There are still many issues that need to be resolved and very quickly, the first is the protection of Armored Vehicles from barrage ammunition, both on the battlefield and in places there, its location during preparation for combat operations, during repair, it is also necessary to carry out very quickly organize protection against the same drones, especially in the means of radioelectronic warfare, detect in a timely manner, the same drones through control channels, and here are all these moments, they lead to the fact that we have a constant lack of time and a constant lack of personnel capable of organizing all these events in a timely manner. And, relatively speaking, the video you commented on of the fighting of the fifth brigade near klishchivka, there were m113s, bmps, and tanks, from these three categories, in your opinion, which are currently in the greatest shortage , which models of armored personnel carriers, tracked vehicles, bmps and tanks have the greatest need from the point of view of meeting, well, the demand of our brigades, we now have. A very big need is precisely for highly protected, so called heavy bmps, these are combat infantry, combat mardertype infantry fighting vehicles, cv90 type infantry fighting vehicles and bmp ee m2 infantry fighting vehicles, bradley in any number of variations, uh, and a2 and a3 and a7, that is, these are socalled fire support vehicles, thats exactly what first of all, it preserves the lives of servicemen on the battlefield, and this is what is able to support a soldier at a distance of up to 152 km, and when there is communication between people who are in combat formations of the infantry, and combat vehicles infantry, this is the most effective means of introducing. Fighting now on the battlefield. So, tanks, they are also needed, tanks are needed, also for use as fire support vehicles, and in the offensive. Actions and defensive actions, this is how they cement combat positions in defense and combat formations in the offensive, but everything rests on the strength that we have now, and on the strength that we have, which is now ready to be transferred, as well as on readiness personnel capable of operating this equipment and competently and correctly organizing combat operations. Mr. Mykola, you just mentioned bmp, you and i seem to have discussed the importance of it a month ago competitive advantages of the bmp cv90 from sweden, and in parallel with that , after some time, information appears that in addition to this bmp , licensed production of bmpod with american roots is offered there from ukrainian Armored Vehicles, other manufacturers, the question arises whether the ministry of defense should not formulate. Such clear requirements for such tender procedures and start a proper tender for the purchase of bmps, in order to avoid accusations from certain partners who do not receive orders from the armed forces. So, the ministry of defense, or rather the general staff, first, and then the ministry of defense must decide on a lot of issues, in Armored Vehicles , if you start with the tank, then this is the caliber, this is the fire control system, this is the chassis, thats it will shape who can be a manufacturer, and what exactly we can, want to see in service in the armed forces of ukraine, in two years, in five years, in 10 years, a similar situation with infantry fighting vehicles, especially of the heavy class, and so on with armored personnel carriers also similar. Practically the situation, why, because the armored personnel carrier , the fourth that ukraine is capable of producing and thank god, produces it in some quantities, but this is still a machine that has its roots in soviet armored personnel carriers, and these are technologies, thats all still in the last century, we need to have more modern, more advanced, more protected equipment in that. Including on the police base, then the question arises that the general staff should formulate requirements, form a vision for each model of equipment, and in parallel foreign equipment is coming, foreign equipment, now we are waiting for the arrival of abrams tanks, again there are excessive expectations that this will be a super breakthrough on the battlefield, i personally do not think so, but i would like to hear your thoughts, or in fact, given the limited number of leopards. In one version or another, isnt there a feeling that the abrams will become the main battle tank of the Ukrainian Army in the future , given the significant reserves in the United States, so it all depends on what we want to see, if we want to see during there for the next three years, at least 5 hundred tanks, the same, of western production in the ranks of the armed forces of ukraine, then these can only be abrams. If we want to see these same five hundred tanks within 10 years, then they can be leopards. It all depends on the amount we want and the availability in the world, or the production capabilities, why . Because now there is not a single country in the world, except the United States of america, which can. Give five hundred tanks within five years without absolutely there are no problems for our own defense capability, and when we talk about our tankbuilding capabilities, now a few dozen t64 tanks have appeared on the front line again, we see that repairs are underway, renewal is underway, but understanding, the vision for. What with our tank developments, do they have a prospect, or without cooperation with foreign partners, it will be extremely difficult to advance and provide the Ukrainian Army with our own projects . Our own production of tanks is the first thing, the armor that we need to cook by yourself, this is a fundamental science, why, because all that is that those enterprises that existed in soviet times, they are now either partially destroyed, or they are no longer able to repeat the technologies that were mastered by soviet metallurgists in their time, so on we go to radio electronics, then we go to the munitions industry, this is the chemistry of gunpowder, this is the chemistry of explosives, then we return to the same metallurgy again, these are the same highexplosive shells, this is metal for shells, for shell casings,. And we return to explosives again, this is, again, modern microelectronics, and here is this circle, it is practically endless, or rather, it is a spiral, because in almost every direction, we need to overcome within a few years, the path that our western partners overcome for ten years, that is, in fact, we are doomed to a partnership. Then it is necessary to find optimal forms of such a partnership, yes. Mr. Mykola, thank you very much for your, as always, professional explanations for your time that you have given to our viewers, and let me remind you, that mykola salamakha, a retired lieutenant colonel, project manager at the energy 2000 company, was on the air. So, on the background of conversations with our industrialists, we can conclude that we have a certain potential in creating our own samples, in other areas we need operations and we we have to eliminate a number of bureaucratic problems that still exist in our defenseindustrial complex, the sooner we do it, the sooner we will get positive results that will affect the battlefield, these are the main conclusions from communication with our industrialists the varpati forum presents a unique book event, a literary and artistic meeting word in war, exclusive conversations with military writers and volunteers, a book talk, author presentations, a special childrens program, performances by bards.

M. , watch this weeks judicial control with tatyana shustrova in the program. Agents of change, such as vovka and yanukovychs people, found themselves in the Competition Commission of the Constitutional Court. This is the worst candidate ever, Volodymyr Kuzmenko is directly vovkas man. How will the European Commission evaluate it . Such a judicial reform, the reform of the Constitutional Court was once again under threat. Greetings, you are watching judicial control, and i am tatyana shustrova. Last year in june, ukraine received the status of a candidate for membership in the european union, subject to the fulfillment of seven steps, the key of which is judicial reform and reform of the Constitutional Court. And if the judicial reform is slowly but surely moving forward, the reform of the Constitutional Court is once again under threat. The board of judges elected to the competition the commission that will appoint judges of the Constitutional Court a person from the entourage of the odious and scandalous chairman of the liquidating oask pavlo vovka, as well as the henchman of the fugitive president viktor yanukovych. We will talk about these ambiguous decisions today. But first to the news. The Northern Commercial court of appeal upheld several complaints. Plaintiffs in the case of the bilotserkiv thermal power plant. The rights of investors and the newly appointed director of the company, ihor vegularny, were violated due to the decision of the judge of the commercial court of the kyiv region, pavlo gorbasenko. Judges pakhs, demydova, khodakivska and vladimirenko, gorbasenkos decision was canceled and it was allowed to involve the shareholders of tets and vegularny to participate in the case. Previously , pavlo was the head of the commercial court of the kyiv region. Gorbasenko was scandalized because of an unjust decision that has signs of raiding. On july 25, the judge granted the application to secure the claim of the former head of the belotserkiv thermal power plant, vadym bohdan, who decided to appeal the decision of the companys Shareholders Meeting 20 months later. By his decision , judge gorbasenko stopped the effect of all decisions jsc meetings. In particular, those that did not concern bohdan. Shareholders emphasize that gorbasenkos resolution has a sign. Raiding, because the meetings decisions were made on 19 issues. In addition, the economic procedural code of ukraine does not provide for such a means of securing a claim as suspending the effect of decisions of Shareholders Meetings. Therefore, it appears that judge gorbasenko used his powers to interfere in the Economic Activities of the newly elected Supervisory Board of the thermal power plant, so that it could not work and appoint the head of the company. After all, gorbasenko also forbade the introduction. Changes to the register, by decision of the judge of the commercial court of the kyiv region pavlo gorbasenko. To take security measures, by prohibiting state registrars, notaries, the ministry of justice of ukraine and other bodies or persons performing functions in the field of state registration, to carry out registration actions regarding jsc. Bilotserkivska teploelektrotsentral, namely to make changes to the information about the head of the legal entity, about other persons who may act. And on behalf of a legal entity. Having received a claim after application of such provision already on august 8, gorbasenko decided to mention the law and left bohdans statement of claim motionless, demanding from him a written explanation as to which rights of the claimant were violated in part of the stated claim, taking into account that at the extraordinary meeting a decision was made on 19 issues , although judge gorbasenko had to ask bohdan about it before issuing a decree on security. So the previous one. The judges decision remains in force, and the rights of shareholders are violated. Now, thanks to gorbasenkos ruling, plaintiff bohdan is suing the defendant atbtsets, which will be represented in court by bohdan himself, or by a lawyer hired by him, who will probably recognize such a claim, while judge gorbasenkos ruling on securing the claim without taking into account the interests of shareholders and without their involvement demonstrates that the judge will consider the case without their participation. The shareholders are convinced that all this is being done in order to further embezzle the company, accumulate its debts and remove the shareholders and the legally elected bodies of the company from managing its activities, prevent the shareholders from bringing order and bring the culprits to justice, because of such court decisions, no Jointstock Company in ukraine can feel safe, and the rights of shareholders can be protected. We will remind you that the trials regarding atbc have been going on since 2021, and this is not the first sad case. Judge gorbasenkos decision in this case. Previously, the Public Council of integrity and journalists drew attention to the judges property, which cannot be explained by official income, as well as his possible fictitious divorce. With the alleged purpose of concealing wealth. Nab was exposed together with the sbu the judge of the brovary city and District Court , volodymyr serdynskyi, for bribes of usd 4,000. According to the investigation, the judge received a bribe from a representative of one of the parties in a civil case, for making a decision in her interests. He received a part of the illegitimate benefit in the amount of 1. Earlier, when the decision was made to evict the dock. In the case during the receipt of the second part of the funds in the amount of 3,000 for the Debt Collection decision in favor of the plaintiff, serdynskyi was hotly exposed by nabu detectives. The sbu added that under during the search , 15,600 dollars packed in different envelopes were seized from the suspected judge. The president delays the appointment of a member of the vrp according to his quota. Back in april, the Competitive Commission for the selection of candidates for the position of member. Rp sent volodymyr zelennyasky a list of recommended candidates for the vacant position. However, it is already october, and there are still no appointments. Then, a few days ago, on october 3 , the mandate of another member of the vrp, according to the president s quota, oksana blazhivska, expired. New candidates for appointment will also be recommended for her position. A somewhat similar situation existed earlier. In 2020 , when he was forming. To the previous Supreme Council of justice, the president had to appoint two members of the Supreme Judicial Council according to his quota. At that time, a competition for two vacant positions was held for the president , a number of winners were selected, the president appointed only one member of the Supreme Council of justice, announced a new competition, a new commission, and another person was already appointed to the new vacancy. Tetyana rozvalyaeva is known for the fact that she actually left the kharkiv agreements in force, that is, agreements on the extension of stay. Of the black sea fleet in the crimea until the 1940s years, which yanukovych and representatives of the aggressor state signed in kharkiv at the time. Experts of the deyure foundation insist that, at a time when the Supreme Council of justice is overloaded with thousands of complaints, and the eu is waiting for us to launch the grp with a new composition, such a delay is unacceptable. Already this month, the European Commission will provide a new assessment. Regarding ukraines implementation of european integration recommendations, what kind of characteristics will we get, taking into account the fact that judicial reform is a key requirement on the way to ukraines accession to the eu, and it is progressing slowly. The board of judges elected to the competition of the commission that will appoint a judicial judge, Volodymyr Kuzmenko, a person from the entourage of the odious and scandalous chairman of the liquidating oask, pavlo vovka, as well as the henchman of the fugitive president viktor yanukovych, romanyuk, the former head of the Supreme Court. In 2017, as a candidate for the position of judge of the Constitutional Court, romanyuk received a negative opinion from the Public Council of integrity, in particular because he supported the criminal dictatorial laws of january 16 during the revolution of dignity. During the euromaidan events, romanyuk was very worried protection of judges. But the mass arbitrary decisions that they made regarding the participants of the protests, not so much, he did not speak about them in any way. During the meeting of the council of judges, romanyuk said that this was a mistake, while he believed that the courts were outside of politics. In his speech before the council of judges, romanyuk also criticized the judicial reform. According to the analysis of public organizations, these are the worst candidates ever. At the competition for the Supreme Court of the new, so called, he received a negative opinion from the Public Integrity council and then withdrew from the competition to the result. This did not prevent him from being elected to this position by the still Current Council of judges. As romanyuks deputy, the council of judges chose no less a candidate for the diocese, Volodymyr Kuzmenko, who appears on vovkas tapes. At the meeting, he stated that he could not comment on events in which he was not a participant. Kuzmenko also denied that the tapes were about him and did not admit that his voice was on the recordings. Volodymyr kuzmenko is directly vovkas man, as can be seen from their films and not only from these films. It shows everything. How rotten and the council of judges is inadequate today with its leadership , which was also put there by pavlo vovk, by the way, about this in the investigation of sledstvainfo journalists, it is necessary to very actively follow what these delegates will do to apologize to the ad hoc group of experts on the selection of judges of the Constitutional Court
