To the former commanderinchief, for me he remained just a legendary person, i watched in view of the friendship with the army , there were several very critical moments in our history, and after the release of Valery Fedorovych, when, with his advice and trust in the army, he, believe me, had an influence on them making certain decisions on very difficult matters. So back to this question, Valery Fedorovich is a very balanced person, and you saw how he said goodbye to this position, when the internet and facebook were boiling, and everyone was talking about what they say, he was fired, unfairly, and everything else. No one, not a Single Person had any. Other reason to think differently about this whole story, so it was all done wisely, understanding the whole background of this situation, i think you know about it very well on espresso, and vitaly portnikov, about its more than once said, lets not repeat ourselves, but now these shots actually, then there was a period of recovery of Valery Fedorovych and negotiations, which he confidently conducted. With the president s office, and they came to this option, to the option of the position, which i think was accepted by him consciously, positively and for the success of the country, including, i think, we hardly discussed the diplomatic situation there now, i hung up, but you hear me , true, yes, yes, yes, everything is fine, uh, here, i think, i think that without communication with my colleagues, with my team that left general staff after release. In full, i. E. All close people, he communicated, consulted, and this decision was made in view of his effectiveness in this position, despite everything, but, therefore, you and i will see effective work, believe me, i, Valery Fedorovych, apart from the fact that you saw it, apart from the fact that he is a combat general, this is also a person with a high level, purely personnel qualities of a diplomat, and believe me, he showed them more than once in various. Situations long before february 24, 22 th year and in the prices of the president s office, including, simply exists a number of things that combat generals, discussing with politicians, novices, dilettantes , cannot accept, and working for the benefit of the country, are forced to talk about it all, or write articles in the economist, and then talk again, because all this was perceived, you saw in what way, or to come out and justify the. Tion, although he should not have done this when they put him out, so that he would cover this hole, this short story that we are still experiencing now, that is, this is a conscious decision, Valery Fedorovych hasnt said anything yet, but i can gather my thoughts courage and to say that a confident decision is balanced, this is not a bone, friends, you will understand, this is not a bone that was thrown to a poor man, he took it, this is not a person who will agree to something, well, why am i saying this. Because we have a tendency in the government, well, there, for example, with our former prosecutor general benediktova, yes, who went as an ambassador, that is, everyone who did not come forward due to various circumstances, they were often appointed as ambassadors, thats hard work, i think, maybe the president s office had fragmentary this motivation, but from the side zuluzhnys decision was made positively only with an eye on the effectiveness of this work, and i. I will carefully say that you will see it, but i have no doubt about it, about the reasons for the appointment of zuluzhny as the new ambassador of ukraine to Great Britain, said the minister of Foreign Affairs of ukraine. Dmytro kuleba on the air of the united telethon. Lets listen. For a very long time, the president was looking for the strongest possible candidate for the position in london. And one of the key requirements was precisely the military understanding of the military context, because britain is not simple our strategic, special Strategic Partner there. This is one of the leaders in the military affairs, in. Aid to ukraine. They dont send anyone there. London is an extremely important destination for any country. And in communication with these ambassadors who work in london, i am convinced that Valery Zaluzhny will be absolutely one of the most respected figures there, and he will bring many, many benefits not only from the point of view of bilateral relations with britain, but also for such. Behindthescenes diplomacy with asian countries, africa and latin america. It is clear with general zaluzhny, because general zaluzhny is a statesman, he is a person who serves the state of ukraine, and he, as a person who is responsible, she accepted this position and accordingly will work in this position, but yanina correctly noticed and noted that the day before information was made public, sociological data from sotsios, where. In the second round, when it comes out, in the president ial round, when zelenskyi and zaluzhnyi come out, then , accordingly, zaluzhnyi gets 607 in the second round, and zelenskyi gets 32. My colleague, maksym smart compared the publication of this sociology, the day before zaluzhnys appointment, as a declaration of war or an attack without a declaration of war, that is, he perceives it. What happened to zaluzhny is exactly like a declaration of war, well, not a declaration of war, but in principle, this sociology is simply murderous. Andrii, how do you perceive this history of sociology, which was made public literally in a day, and such a lightningfast decision to announce a good man as an ambassador to Great Britain, without even waiting for a response from london, that staff diplomats. Just freeze shrug their shoulders and say , well, in principle, this is not done at all , or whether this sociology could push the president s office to solve the question, well, in quotes, the question is valid, we cant hear you, i think its audible, yes, yes, ugh, yes, i, i think that such a decision is not made quickly after all, but really sociology could have pushed the office of the president to go public. Their decision earlier than they planned in order to break this story with information, and so that everyone talked about the appointment, and not about sociology, this is such an informational step, and i also wanted to support yanina, she mentioned zaluzhnys article in zaikonomist and there were also articles in cnn, this could also be one of the reasons why he was appointed to this. Position, because for the englishspeaking world he is one of, well, probably two wellknown and recognizable politicians, well, politicians, i consider ukraine. Of course, everyone knows zelenskyy now in the world, but if you ask who is currently representing ukraine abroad, how about a face, then i think that many people would call zelenskyi a second person, and this will contribute to the fact that ukraine will receive more weapons, more defense contracts , this is precisely where i see a pragmatic benefit, even in spite of the possible political risks for the president s office and for Volodymyr Zelensky in the future, already after the war, when there will be elections, but we do not know whether there will be elections or not, and when they will be will be, thats why sociology today is a measure of todays mood, what will be there in a year . In two, three, we cannot predict, well, we have to, let me, we did not say about it, we said in general terms, you understand that the weapons of nato countries, it was mainly tested, well, if we do not take conflicts there, in which the United States of america participated fragmentarily and provided weapons, in such a volume that we became. A realistic, real weapons testing ground of nato countries, they never had. Our current main feature as partners, i emphasize as partners, is value. For them, it is that we conducted research, i will explain to the ukrainians that if the analysis of all the weapons that they had in their arsenal, tested for many years on training grounds, and not in wars, increased, i especially now i emphasize on the latest weapons, thats why Valeriy Fedorovych knows this very well, and so do our lobbyists in the United States of america, a group of lobbyists, including volunteers and air reconnaissance, maria berlinska. And dari kalynyuk, these are the people who came there, and given the direct analytics from the military, all of this was presented together with Valery Zaluzhny, so he understands the entire system very well, at the moment for nato countries and for Great Britain as well, and and for germany and france, given their weapons, what they have that works, what doesnt work, and what we need from given the fact that. We have already tested, that is why he is a person from all sides, and as for the issue of weapons, well, it is extremely valuable for them now, believe me, this topic of the weapons sector is on the table of transition, it became one of the main ones in the negotiations with congressmen, when we became not people who reach out and say help, you probably also watched bidens speech that night, and we were able to see it this morning in kyiv, this feric. Speech with very cool theses is militant, probably for a long time biden for a long time, he had been speaking in a militant manner for a long time about ukraine, only about ukraine and about helping ukraine, one of the topics was the argument that you give us weapons not only to protect ourselves, to support europe and your status as the number one democratic country, but that we will analyze it all, give us, and you will know that you are not good at lying, that you are not shooting well, then. So at the moment , Valery Zaluzhnyi, the person who owns this folder, is very good, and i am sure that in every position we have experts, specially hired, who will be able to do it all, he is with them worked, they will be able to voice all this too, positively, i really appreciate what happened.

This is the verdict program, my name is serhii rudenko, we work directly. On the air, we are conducting a poll simultaneously with the live broadcast, we are asking you about this, do you, do you like the appointment of a diligent ambassador to Great Britain, or do you approve . You are the destination if you watch us on youtube, then everything is quite simple yes, no, or write your comment under this video, if you are watching us on tv, pick up your smartphone or phone and vote if you approve of this decision, 0800 211 381 no 0800 211 382, all calls these numbers are free, today i have two of my colleagues as guests, they are Yanina Sokolova and andriy yanitskyi, we are talking about. Well, about sociology, about Great Britain, about the appointment, we will also talk about the opposition very briefly, because why did i mention about two Public Opinion polls that came out the day before the announcement of the appointment of zaluzhny as ambassador to Great Britain, the socis poll, where zaluzhny defeated zelensky in the second round of the election, according to the poll, there is another poll that came out today, this is the kmis poll about Political Leadership in ukraine about. Who is the leader of the ukrainian opposition, there are also quite interesting figures here, why, why exactly these two sociological studies caught my eye, because they appeared just in the interval between the announcement of the stalwart as the new ambassador to Great Britain, so who do ukrainians consider to be the leaders of the ukrainian of the opposition, according to kmis data, 26 consider poroshenko to be the leader of the opposition, 17 called him a shelter. Next come peoples deputies Dmytro Razumkov 7 , Yulia Tymoshenko 5 , zaluzhnyi 3 and former adviser to the president of the office of the president oleksiy aristovych 2 , and yuriy boyko, by the way, the leader of the Prohibition Party opzsh also 2 , so its like the office of the president , i dont know, sociologists lets say this, clearly emphasized that zaluzhnyi was not in the opposition, was not the leader of the opposition, and well, its like. 3 there, that is, compared to 67 there, 3 here, they they look a little petty, but the rating of trust in zaluzhny is a rating of peoples trust, it is not a rating for a political figure, because zaluzhny never said that he wants to become a politician, although we understand that he is already a politician, he has the greatest influence on politics in ukraine, more than anyone influenced when he was the commanderinchief, the armed forces of ukraine, because there was no such policy from him at all, not the opposition, not the government, but not. In the skillful actions of Valery Zaluzhnyi yenin, who do you think the leader of the ukrainian opposition, or in general, it is necessary to talk about the ukrainian opposition during the war, because when 17 sheltered serhiy prytula, that he is the leader of the ukrainian opposition, well, to be honest, with all due respect to serhiy dmytrovych, but to call him the leader of the ukrainian opposition, well, somehow it doesnt work, poroshenko yes, he is perceived as the leader of the opposition, well, the leader of the opposition is sheltered. Arrestovych, the leader of the opposition, what do these data show . Testify to the ignorance of our citizens, friends, read the lists, follow, even if it is not broadcast, what is happening in the parliament, read the right channels of communication, in particular the espresso tv channel, subscribe to the Youtube Channel of yanina sokolovov, actually jokes with jokes, serhiy prytula, on this list. Is not, by the way, an absolutely oppositional representative, despite his distant ties with the voice party and his candidacy for the mayoral post during the mayoral elections of kyiv, this whole story has somehow stalled, although, believe me, there are very active rumors in political circles about , that Serhii Prytula will take political power with him if the next elections are held, who. There will even be talks, and it is clear that it will be part of the military, therefore it will be one of the competitors of European Solidarity, and perhaps serhiy will invite fragments of the voice party, which, unfortunately, due to conflicts, will no longer be passable in in the version in which it is now further, well, European Solidarity, as far as i understand it, will not be combined with asylum in the electoral list, so on. Now among the people who announced theirs, or announced their political ambitions, we have European Solidarity and volunteer Serhii Prytula, who already applied for certain political positions in the power structures, that is why, by the way, zaluzhny is so low, because people analyzed how they see the picture of the government, or how they see the future picture of the government among those who have decided on their choice. By the way, this is, by the way, a wakeup call for serhiy prytula, that people already understand that he will be swamped, and i think, in the parliamentary and president ial elections. Who is the leader . Serhiy, well at the moment, i think it is obvious to everyone that the leader of the opposition there is European Solidarity, why . Well, because there is currently an opposition bloc in the verkhovna rada, its redemptive bodies have not been killed like a hydra, unfortunately, by the system, for me its wild, i still dont understand what boyko is doing in these ratings that we just saw with you , if you paid attention, there is the most south. I cast votes for him, which under shelling constantly around the clock, well, you can see, west, center, south, here is boyko 4,6, yes, east two, the east has already understood something, and maybe more people just left, south and still 4. 6, why . Well, probably because some trash characters appear, like from odesa, who say that they dont understand ukrainian, and in principle. Friendship is not putins fault at all, well, you saw these trash videos, i wont dwell on them, thats why the voice party remains, European Solidarity remains, any of them can be the leader of the opposition, well , only by the number of peoples deputies and the level of influence of decisionmaking, of course, this is European Solidarity , thats why they are on this moment by the leaders of the opposition, regarding serhiy prytula, i will give you my opinion. Said, i think that he will go to the elections, it is already visible by all signs when the elections will be held, but here is an interesting point, by the way, and i did not see these numbers, serhii, which you just showed, i saw only sausage, filming there were just two days in a row, i did not have time to investigate this moment, and it is a surprise for me, because the numbers i saw before said that people have a high level of trust in serhii prytul as a volunteer and associate him with a volunteer. But with regard to political activity, i saw direct polls of people on social networks and on the street, i have not seen such closed, anonymous numbers yet, so they did not associate their electoral preferences with him, as the leader of the future Political Force and candidate for the president ial post, thats why 17 , you see, this is already a result, i think its positive for serhii and his associates, and the editor tells me that. There was no meritorious person in this list, but there was an option when those who answered could name their last name. So 3 is who you are named maybe if zaluzhnyi was put as the leader of the opposition, maybe he would be in the first position, well, i mean in the poll, its just who, who was named by those who were polled, pay attention, pay attention, there is also aristovych, we can briefly comment, friends, on his numbers, call yours. Relatives and tell them that oleksiy aristovych continues his activities for a reason, because it is he, given the rhetoric, often prorussian in my opinion, despite the fact that he is wanted there and has criminal charges against him things, its all been done for a long time by political manipulation, when we see an outright, bloody war going on, and its clear that someone whos being persecuted by a dictator, we think is our friend, these. Stories, but the rhetoric that goes , just brings me closer to the idea of taking away a certain layer of the electorate from opzh, and you can see it from the numbers, the south again supports him there, so i think that if there are elections in the coming years, then you will see another Political Force, oleksiy aristovych will definitely do it in view of his ambitions and personal qualities are human. Er, knowledge of all processes and the ability to reach the audience, he has it, that is, from time to time, i get there, er, switching to watch a video with a certain purpose, i come across some recommendations that for some reason seem to me, then i am there i see that 35,000 or 50,000 people are sitting and watching the protestors, it is clear that this is part of the russian federation, because he speaks russian, but ours, too, so it is worth looking closely and. Watching this whole process and going ahead before voting thank you, thank you, thank you, yanina andrii, but yanina is right about the fact that opzz is a banned party, and it is not just about the faculty faction in the verkhovna rada, because in 2020, more than 400 representatives of opzz were elected in local elections, and they are still sitting in local councils, some budgets are being cut there. Land is distributed, various decisions are made, and this is also a question for the state, why does the state actually do this with the socalled opposition, and it is not the opposition, this part, it. Is part of the current ukrainian government, and it is dangerous, well, i know that at the local level, in many local councils, there is a movement to deprive the deputies who were elected from the opzz of their powers, as far as i understand, this is legally difficult to do, especially since they have all already publicly repainted, become the biggest patriots , here, lets put it this way, we lack. Institutes of voter reputation and memory, to remember who ran for which party and what they professed, i would also note, well, and once again emphasize that there was no meritorious person in this survey of kmisu, how of one of the alternatives proposed by the respondent, and the fact that 3 of the citizens just actually put it on the ballot themselves, this. Says that it would have a much higher rating if it were offered to the people immediately, so maybe we dont know maybe in the second place, well, it is unlikely that the first place would have been a laborer, not a shelter, if he had been in these questionnaires from the very beginning, which i also noticed that in fact 17 were undecided, or 17, and another 17 said , that in. There 17 18 and that there is no real opposition in ukraine, this a big piece of the electoral pie, actually more than 30 , 35 of the citizens, they can make their choice later, later, and sway this poll one way or the other, and plus we dont know who will actually run when. There will be elections and other popular people may appear there, i dont know about the plans of mr. Budanov, i dont know about the plans of klitschko, sadovoy, well, we have many politicians and public figures who can potentially claim the highest positions in the state and for which can potentially vote, well, including some known volunteers, why are we talking only about the shelter, because we have another famous fund, come back alive. Who also collects huge sums, there are popular bloggers, there is sternenko blogger, there is Yanina Sokolova, who has 1 million subscribers on the Youtube Channel, friends, join the Youtube Channel of Yanina Sokolova, thank you, i immediately say that you are me there you are unlikely to see, well, you can support someone, say no, i have no right to support andria, i am. A journalist , we are supported by bloggers and those who consider themselves not journalists, but exclusively public as an activist, journalists do not have anyone to support, i can only boldly say who is the enemy of the country and for whom it is necessary to call the elderly people in the environment or friends and relatives in the southeast, considering the numbers, and tell them not to vote, because this is the choice of the future of the country , i will be a candidate , thank you colleagues, we have to go off the air, well , we heard that yanina. The chairman will not run for the presidency of ukraine next time, although never say never, i think that it is a woman president , it would be interesting, i think that someday in ukraine it should happen, yes, thank you, thank you, yanina sokolo, thank you to Andrii Yanitskyi for participating in the program, it was a verdict program, during the program we conducted a survey, friends, we asked you about this, do you support the appointment of a diligent ambassador to Great Britain, so 47 approve of this decision. 53 no, well , about the same proportion in youtube, im putting an end to this conversation, it was the verdict program about serhii rudenko, ill say goodbye to you until 8 00 p. M. Monday, have a good weekend especially for you, the favorite fighters of the legendary band are gathering at 7 p. M. 6 you will see tickets for the concert in april at the festival
