Mr. Serhiy, we congratulate you, and glory to ukraine. Congratulations, glory to the heroes. Well, the situation at the front. In particular, we are talking about both the avdiivskyi and the novopavlivskyi direction. What is happening now. There, so, uh, for now, lets say, the storm attacks, a little, well, no, it hasnt decreased, but the number of their attacking groups, uh, has decreased quite a bit, what we dont observe, anyway we destroy them and this, we see it on the battlefield, and we hear from intercepts, they really dont have enough specialists of one or another. Sphere, we wont say which, but we follow a lot, we know, thats the only thing the enemy continues to use it there, that means cabs , it is very actively used, despite the fact that we still shoot down their planes, they continue to do it, well, lets say so, mr. Sergey, and with what resources does the enemy currently operate, as far as they currently have it is possible to use certain. Mechanized units and whether does the soil actually allow them to carry out similar operations involving Armored Vehicles . They would gladly do it, but that means we dont let them do it, they even tried for two days in a row to clear the minibarricade with drones and fivishkas, they even did it, oh, but we have different, lets say, devices that today allow thanks to. The collection of our citizens, by ground drones, lets say, these, that, gaps, gaps, yes, to close, thats why, lets say, we do everything to ensure that they have such there was no opportunity, so i want , well, taking the opportunity, if you will allow me , to congratulate our women today, on the International Day of protection of womens rights, thats why. And in our ranks, a large number of girls, women fulfill their combat tasks, not only combat tasks, but we also have better ones in the rear. Women, therefore, on behalf of the entire personnel of the 59th brigade, i want to congratulate all the women of ukraine, i apologize to all of our guys, who cannot pick up the phone and call today because they are busy and cannot simply turn on the phone, so you the most charming, you yourself, yourself, yourself, yourself, yourself are cool, so we congratulate everyone, and say that today we are really in the armed forces of ukraine. After all, this equality is really at the level it should be. There is no way that today we look at a serviceman, a woman, in any other way than at our fellow man. Oh, and women proved it on the battlefield. I want to emphasize from the very morning that we had good news, a girl who went on a combat mission for the first time, hit the bmp, this is a young, fragile girl. And it was very nice, right in the morning, but tell me please, some details of how she worked on the armored, Armored Vehicles of the enemy, well, how did she study, yes, she trained there, and then she went to the position, raised her fp drone, and hit it, so the details are like that, it was an aerial reconnaissance, right . It was just a female operator, pilot, pilot, our fighter pilot, sir. Please tell me more, and in general, if we are talking about the advantage of the enemy in artillery and other weapons, how much is the advantage of the enemy felt now and approximately by how many times, if you have the information, well, how to calculate how much times, lets say, more than 100 strikes are made on the positions of our units per day, this does not count kabis, does not count semidrones, does not count kamikaze drones. Well, do the math, we shoot, we make a quick impression of fire, for artillery action only on specified targets, but only when we see that there is a need for it, and just like that somewhere, as they do it, shoot in the fields and so on further, well, we dont have such a thing, the skill is at the highest level, i want to emphasize this once again to our artillerymen, so it means, well, we do, we do such. Using the conditions we have and the opportunities we have. Mr. Serhiy, we would like to ask you about the second, third or some other line of defense, yes, because it is reported that ukraine is rapidly building defensive lines on the front, the deputy minister of defense stated this, and new forces and equipment have been recruited for engineering works. Lieutenant general Ivan Gavrylyuk went to the front to inspect the works on the fortification of defensive lines, and accordingly. That in the avdiyiv direction, how active are you . Military administrations help, for example, and do some or other auxiliary construction firms organize civilian businesses, well, i wont talk about civilian business, but its the administration directly, its local authorities, there are heads of territorial communities and so on, thats all. That they can , everything is allocated to us, so in this regard it is normal, regarding directly. Our brigade, i will say that we did not prepare for this, lets say, but constantly identified places where it might be necessary, and they did some work there, well, a long time ago, well, in the past year, lets say this way, our engineers constantly made one or another reserve positions day and night in order to, well, for all occasions, here if you want to win. Here it is not only necessary to attack, but also to defend skillfully, and this, this is important, in order to exhaust the enemy, in order for him to lose his, lets say, active fighting capacity, and then continue to pursue those tasks in the offensive , everything else, and i emphasize that the defense in our lane line is not just any defense, yes, it is an active formation, we also conduct assault actions despite superiority. The enemy in the air with the same artillery means of impression, thats how the defense is going, well , its quite active. Mr. Serhiu, if you allow me, i would like to return to the topic of armaments, your colleagues, who in other areas have already spoken in passing about the fact that certain ammunition has begun to arrive, this is actually encouraging information, because we understand that our armed forces are now. Are significantly short of ammunition, is there any additional supply now being observed in your direction, has it begun the trend is in a good direction, because we know that. And the czechs have now greatly intensified this process, they are trying to attract third countries and collect funds from all over europe in order to provide us with these ammunition as soon as possible, so is there still an increase now . Gradual supply of the ammunition that we need so much . So, at the beginning of the week, the enemy used up to 10 units of heavy Armored Vehicles per day in certain areas, well, i am talking about the direction of our brigades defense directly. Here on each section, there are 10, there are eight and so on, and as you can see, this one is not one of these vehicles, of these Armored Vehicles , whether it was a tank chimp, did not achieve their success, they were either destroyed or damaged and did not fulfill their combat mission, but this morning one only just came out, so to speak, well, im sorry girl , i must say, i was impressed. He will no longer be able to fight , but the second one escaped, and so on, and therefore the amount of equipment that they are using now has decreased, well, by the end of the week it has already decreased, it is necessary to accumulate forces again, transfer them somewhere from other areas of the front, and in general it has a positive effect on the whole the russianukrainian front, and if somewhere is taken away, then there will be less, and so on, oh plus, well, these are all antitank units. Tankers, our pilots, everything in the complex is working, antiaircraft fighters, eh, very well this, this week they are working, and eagles are being shot down there, and all the others, well, bats, that is, bats, i say, their shaheds, oh, well, this, this is only pleasing, because first of all, already in these two years, a fullscale, very massive training directly in battle took place, alignment of units. But everyone knows their own, their work is excellent, i sign off on that absolutely for every one of our soldiers, who is performing certain tasks today. Thank you, thank you, mr. Serhiy, serhii tsyhotskyi, an officer of the 59th kremoye of the motorized Infantry Brigade named after yakuv handziuk of the zavdiyiv direction, was with us on the air, and i want to remind you, our tv viewers , about our collection.

Infoday of the tv channel in rospol, president zelenskyi will be in turkey today, will discuss with his turkish colleague , president Recep Tayyip Erdogan , the formula for peace and the release of prisoners, and they will not only talk about this. Well, thats where we ll start. Ruslan osypenko, diplomat, international expert, is on our air. Yes, glory to ukraine, mr. Ruslan, glory to the heroes, congratulations, mr. Antin. Well, lets immediately talk about the turkish visit of our president volodymyr zelenskyi. In your opinion, what can actually stand . We understand that there is an official side , so to speak, but in addition to the protocol points that will be voiced, there may be, so to speak, certain additional conversation options, and if we look at the situation in the complex, what do you think the president s will talk about . Well, given that turkey positions itself as an intermediary between the west and russia, i think there may be some messages from russia transferred through erdogan, i do not rule it out, i do not affirm it, but i do not rule it out either, because we see that the geopolitical structure has developed in such a way that moscow believes that it is now in a strong position, that it can force ukraine to negotiations, and this strong position they have, the window of opportunity will be preserved somewhere during this month, maybe the beginning of april. Because now events are unfolding, as we see both in the United States and in europe, which indicate that both europeans and americans are waking up to what biden called for there today, in particular, to wake up to help ukraine, and the rhetoric, look how it has changed, the rhetoric has changed, that ukraine must not lose, but ukraine must win, because this regime, which violated all rules of law, must must fall, and ukraine must win , therefore. I think that the russians understand that the window of opportunity is closing and are trying to use intermediaries there china, turkey for some messages to our leadership. Well, especially taking into account yesterdays visit of lihuey, the special representative and the special envoy of china, on matters of the ukrainianrussian war, respectively, lihui visited kyiv, yes , we understand, there is also an official part of his visit, but we understand. That there is a rather clear, tough and not too proukrainian position of beijing, which was voiced by the relevant officials of the Chinese Foreign ministry. Your version of the chinese representatives visit . I think that it was not the main idea to stop the war, or to prepare the conditions, as they said, for the beginning of negotiations, the main idea was to make a cut of the interests of europe. Europe is the main one sales market, a major player that is becoming. As, which now began to wake up and fight for its strategic autonomy, for its identity , when the americans entered the discussion, and china saw that they could lose the last sales market, they already have a trade war with the United States, and it is only increasing, but if they will lose europe, then what is the point of their factories and china as a manufacturer, it does not have liquid sales markets, and therefore it is very, very important for china to understand the position of the european commission, so the visit is just right look, he went to brussels, to berlin, to paris and to warsaw, these are european bodies, they covered with a visit and covered the weimar triangle, the socalled, which just started working for this european identity, these are the key locomotives that will pull the renewed europe, and for china, he is filming, lets say, making a slice, a slice of interests, watching. How this strategy will unfold in the future, mr. Ruslan, we would also like to ask you about the application for the appointment of the former commanderinchief of the armed forces of ukraine valeria. Service to the post of ambassador to Great Britain, so many ukrainians took this possible appointment with some irony, but after all, if we are talking about diplomacy, how logical does it seem to you to appoint a person with such a large military background, a diplomat and ambassador to Great Britain . I will say that if it is by mutual agreement, so be it, but regarding the appointment of mr. In the service of Valery Fedorovych for this position, well , a patriot and a man with a capital letter, the savior of the nation, he does not care from which position to defend interests of ukraine, i think that he will do his best, just as he did in the military sphere, and he will do his best in the diplomatic sphere, so if it is with his consent and he agrees to occupy this position, then so be it, and i think that he will help the army a lot, because britain is exactly the country that will stand with us to the last. Thats for sure, regardless of geopolitical configurations, no matter how they change there, she has already demonstrated in history that if the british give their word, they keep it, and therefore with these positions of Valery Fedorovych are respected there, and he can go into any cabinet and solve any issue, be it military, be it financial aid, be it Political Support at some, lets say, conferences there, for example, at the same peace summit, for him this. Will not be a difficult question. Mr. Ruslan , look, well, there is another procedural point, we understand that the extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador is not sinekore, you know, that he would sit there, drinking tea, you know, and reading cherchel, no, there are a lot of different meetings, a lot various documents that he has to process in the post of extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador, well, in general, there is still the issue of the agreement, so right after it was announced. That the hard worker will be transferred to the position of extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador to the united kingdom, that is what they started saying, and also the british did not voice their agreement, so to speak, and the question is that this violates certain ethics, so to speak, i. E. First a candidacy is submitted, it is approved by the ministry of Foreign Affairs of this or that country, after that it is possible to voice this matter, yes, agreman is, so to speak, a patent, relatively speaking, diplomatic. Yes, thats exactly the case, i think there was a little rush with this, with this issue, because, well, and, in some ways, i will say that we put pressure on our partners, that here we selected the candidate, and it was officially made public, now , you know, the british are faced with a choice, it is clear that Valery Fedorovych is a legendary, legendary figure, and that he will be accepted in any, in any country, whether they are crushed. Or Great Britain there is no difference, but it was necessary, yes, to follow the rules, it was necessary to send a request for a visa, receive confirmation of this within 3030 days, then it was necessary to sign the decree of appointment, simultaneously publish in the central media that such an extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador is appointed and a simultaneous publication is made in the british media and in our media, after that he issues. The deed of verse in two copies, there is one copy and one copy, the original, and with these written originals and a copy, Valeriy Fedorovych was supposed to go to britain, one copy of the letter of credence should be given to the minister of Foreign Affairs, and the other copy should be given to the Prime Minister when he is invited there and when there will be a ceremony, lets say it like the ambassadors, thats why we broke the protocol a little here. Lets say diplomatic, but i dont think it will greatly affect our bilateral relations with the british, i think the british understand that it was a difficult domestic political issue, and the authorities were a little hasty to announce that they had found a way out of this situation, i think they will come with understanding to that, sir ruslan, look, we would also like to ask you about Joseph Bidens speech, as a matter of fact, he did not stand out for me in particular. Such that i have not heard from joseph biden before, yes, well, but in general it is important when the president of the United States addresses, actually sends certain messages to his people, but here the important story is that this year biden was invited to the congress for a speech, ukrainian serviceman, and he says that we cannot go on an assault with rakes and pitchforks, we need support, this is what soldier andrii chevozororov said at the congress during from the speech of president biden, do you think that zelenska did not go, there were various reasons why she did not , and this is an interesting moment, marta, touched, and it is a plus or a minus that. The first lady of ukraine did not go, well we understand that there was such a hyped interpretation of the whole thing, well, because of the widow of the murdered navalny, yes, well, but still we understand that there are certain functions that have to be performed, well, i will answer you like this, see if you planned to use it to strengthen your speech in front of the nation, and in the lower house someone was invited there, someone refuses, what impression would you have, but you are on your own . Give an answer to this question, it is safe , we refrain from voicing our versions, because with marta, all the versions are, so to speak, spoken in breaks, that is, it is already your prerogative, yes, and i, in order not to voice and in order not to disappoint ours , please, they will always be able to cheer, and the audience, i think, i think that it was necessary, it was Still Necessary to participate independently from what the circumstances are. There and whoever was sitting next to them is invited, which means they are respected, and this could be used precisely to strengthen this appeal, because biden appealed for military aid, he began, although the speech was preelection, it was devoted to domestic issues and the fight against trump, where he demonstrated his weaknesses there, that he was unable to help the nation with covid, attacked the congress on january 6, there was a lot of internal finance and jobs. Created, but he started this one speech from ukraine, he started this speech from ukraine and said that if we do not fulfill these obligations somewhere around this, history is looking at us, this is a historical moment, and we cannot, therefore, not help ukraine and our european , european partners, that is why it is important, and to strengthen this, he would definitely like to address the hall there, for example, to have a representative of our political elite stand up, who would go there to confirm the fact that america stands side by side with ukraine, so there is more here there are definitely negative points, i would say yes, honestly, mr. Ruslan, but if we are talking about money after all, about supporting ukraine, we understand that the slogan and such a message by biden, they are also important, but we need real money and we need real weapons, are there any prerequisites to believe that mike johnson will be pressured and he will introduce this or that bill. Because we understand that there are several as options, but in principle, if we are talking about marchapril, is there any hope that in any case which of the packages that provides us with help will still be voted on, biden moved the republicans with his speech, whether their petrified hearts will listen to their political technologists, and they will expose biden, well, as such a political player who is not very good, so m as a form im sorry, here you will ask two questions, one about johnson, the other about the republicans. I would say that johnson will not be moved because johnson is working out his role and his role will be to block as a tool, to block the vote for this help, and some republicans, i think he reached some republicans because he said you cant give putin who marches like hitler, he compared him as hitler to hitler before the war, you cant give him. Something , when he is on the march, and certainly the republicans understand that this vote is not even for aid to ukraine, it is a vote for the leadership, for maintaining the leadership positions of the United States of america, and there are a lot of patriots among the republicans, and i think that they will use the 218 vote loophole to bypass mike johnson and still vote without him, because he will not budge from his position, he clearly works out, the position of donald trump, who is communicating, is already there coordinating with the kremlin through tucker carlson, we saw, now the hungarian Prime Minister is going to see him, and this is already coordination, we have to pass the word, mr. Ruslan, sorry for the interruption, you even forgot about the time, but the time has come, so to speak, for another slot, with us on contact was ruslan osypenko, diplomat, expert, internationalist, this is how we pass the floor to our colleague anna eva melnyk, we congratulate you, we are glad to see you, and actually we ask you to tell us about what. Will be discussed in this issue. Congratulations, colleagues, the news team has been monitoring and working for the last hour, and will tell you about the most important things that happened in ukraine and the world. Be with us
