What directions, results, and goals of creating such an integrated defense as part of the reform of the Defense System in general. And of course the issue of improving the armed forces itself has come up, and one of the key issues, in my opinion, is to link the restructuring of the armed forces with militarytechnical cooperation. Unfortunately, we dont have it yet militarypolitical leader. In fact, the government followed the proposals of various partners, and because of this, i would say even bad decisions appeared, the previous ones , for example, to do together with the rain Metal Company and the rain metal concern, to make a fux combat vehicle, this is two steps back , our defenders point out, because we we can do it ourselves, while with rayonmetal we need to do it for the air defense, for example, yes, as a version, as one of such examples, the second example, i already said that we do not have departments transferred, in fact, and i was now talking about the state special communications, which, where, where the difficulties are very great in the transfer of weapons, and in fact , for a year now, our weapons manufacturers have been saying, for example, about such things that unification should be carried out. For example, on unmanned systems, we have more than 60 different aerial drones in operation today in the armed forces, this is a very important point, if we cant do now, lets say artillery, because all weapons are very important, any, if we cant easily to deal with Armored Vehicles now, then with drones necessarily unification and improvement at the expense of the state, so far the state has not been able to do any project where it could combine the teams of private and state enterprises, i will give the best two examples, there was the gorlytsia drone project, they wanted to make a strike a drone from it, for this it was necessary to take kabelush missiles and attach it to this drone, they couldnt do it, the second example, and they made it into an ordinary. Drone, well, its true, it s longrange now, its february, which , well, powerful drone, but still this is not something that could be done actually, as i said, the same with ground drones, there were three companies, now 24 companies are making ground robotic complexes, but the state cannot take the courage and not developed a mechanism to make. Take the best from all developers, hang there, again , the kabeluch missiles, the guidance complex that we have and make a shock antitank drone, by the way, one military man told me, yes, on the condition of anonymity, that if his unit had these landbased robotic saber complexes, which had already been purchased, but had not yet entered the troops there. Because of this collision of the state special forces of the defense forces, yes , there is something wrong in this link, the reed unit could hold it, yes, that is, it is about the fact that ukraine sometimes has hightech, innovative solutions, but cannot bring them to systematic use, and this is about this is exactly what it says, thank you very much for these highlights related to the transformation of the system. Purchases and the very approaches to the introduction of new Technologies Solutions let me remind you that it was valentyn badrak, director of the army, conversion and Disarmament Research center. These were the main results of the day, and. More international and Economic News to come, so stay tuned to the espresso channel. Thank you very much to serhii zhorets, thank you to his guest. Well, an air alert has been declared for almost the entire territory of our country, so i just opened the map of air alerts. There is no anxiety only in the Dnipropetrovsk Region, except, as far as i understand, in the nikopol community, there actually is almost always there. And air alarms because the enemy is shelling from the left bank of the zaporizhzhia region, odessa region has already been added, so only in Dnipropetrovsk Region, as of now , the air alert has not been announced, in the rest, in the rest of the territory of our state, as of now, there is an air alert, and Dnipropetrovsk Region is also already red, so actually throughout the territory of our country, air alert, please stay in shelters, protect yourself as much as possible, holidays on. It is clear that the enemy will be on the rampage, the dark forces are always on the rampage, they are always on the rampage in principle russians, and especially before the holidays, and Pavlo Kishkar is with us, chief of staff, deputy Battalion Commander of the armed forces of ukraine, mr. Pavle, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, mr. Vasyl, i congratulate ukraine, im glad to see and hear, i just literally read it right the president s statement, which i would like you to comment on, thats exactly what were going to start with. President of ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi will remind that the Supreme Commander of the armed forces of ukraine stated that ukraine is facing a new stage of the war. I will give a short quote i will voice simply what the head of our state said now we are facing a new stage in the war, the occupier is preparing for attempts to expand offensive actions. We must all do everything together to thwart the russian offensive plan, the ukrainian president said in a statement. According to your information, how is it perceived first of all at the front, because the most important thing is how it is perceived by the soldiers, what tasks may be set, what are the risks regarding the possibility of expanding offensive actions and what is the new phase of the war from russia, the head of state is speaking today, who definitely has a lot more information, of course, than the rest of the citizens of ukraine. Well, i would like all the officials of the ministry of defense and other departments to work in the same way as the president , i think, by doing so, we would many times accelerate. The victory of ukraine over the russian fascist troops, and as for possible offensives, well, of course, this is an estimate, assessment of a more strategic level, our small job is to leave as many people as possible who came to our land with weapons in this land, so day by day, using all available equipment, the ukrainian soldier will do everything it is possible to bring the victory closer by stopping the enemy where he is now, preferably turning them back. Of their territory every day, and the issue of mobilization, we see videos, photos, now a lot of people, well, at least in kyiv , definitely come to the territorial recruitment centers, some come to the lka, some renew their data, and more people will appear after may 18 , when the law on mobilization will enter into force, in your opinion, how effectively will it work, on whom does the effectiveness depend, because the law is the law, but the quality of the people who will be to send to the front before training is a matter of responsibility not of those people who were approved for. What should be expected, what is the real need today, what are, according to your information, the possibilities of both Territorial Centers and Training Centers to prepare and provide the troops those people who will solve certain tasks in key directions, especially since we are again expecting offensive actions from the enemy. In key areas, there are enough specialist military personnel who will be able to stop the enemy. Another question about mobilization, i am a supporter of. Free mobilization and convincing people that professional training and defense of their own state is also in their interest, that is why i am skeptical about the possibilities of this draft law or law, it is no different from the law that existed before that, i, as a person who is responsible for the technical modernization of the state, see this as a greater benefit than trying to gather more people with such a. Forceful method, i believe that robots, a technical advantage will provide an opportunity to speed up the victory of ukraine, and i will do everything possible, in order to this technical advantage was achieved as quickly as possible. Today we have a whole series of questions regarding the same, i just listened to bodrak, he mentioned sabers, so sabers are absent in the troops for a simple reason, they are physically present, but not transferred. To us in order to use them on the battlefield, because someone over there, according to some long procedure, decided to transfer Material Resources from one department to another department, if you. Officials are hindered by some procedure, change it, i am contacting the president right now , using mr. Vasyl, i apologize, opportunity, but adopt a decree that allows these materials to be transferred immediately to the armed forces every day, it is great that you thought of using special funds, that united 24 is working, it is great, but we are not interested in these procedures, we are interested in the weapons already on the battlefield , but on the battlefield it appears exactly. When i, as a unit commander, take it on my account and issue it to people so that they undergo training, training, receive ammunition and hit the mentioned reeds, thats when it reaches of your success, if once again, i can add here right away, i am not an expert in this matter, but i have such a simple question, but these must still be those weapons that have already passed certification, that have been tested, so that it does not happen as they say some. The military, sometimes such artificial, well, artificially made drones get sent to the front, and then you think what to do with those drones, i will simplify the task for you, this weapon has passed certification, it has been tested, and the wolves of old have even reported on it efficiency, you can to find it in open sources of information, so this highly effective technological weapon does not get to the units purely for bureaucratic reasons, so here is my. A simple request that by president ial decree this procedure be allowed to be transferred directly from any funds, from the state security service, from the ministry of defense, it doesnt matter which agency is buying from us now, absolutely anyone who buys for the armed forces and transfers to military units can do it first directly, in one day, and this issue is further up to the cabinet of ministers and financiers, how they will decide these budget issues, we dont have time, but im here for the people, which i will delay now. This process by transferring sabers, i promise that after the end of the war we will definitely find out who delayed this issue for more than a month and a half, well, who sat and thought about signing or not signing, why the people responsible for this transfer did not initiate before the president the reduction of these procedures, why do we need this bureaucratic red tape, we are still living according to peacetime procedures, maybe we will come to our senses and see that we are at war. That in rockets are falling on us in kyiv, if someone does not understand that the procedures that interfere must be removed and leveled, so i tell you this frankly for the whole of ukraine, using spresso, remove these procedures, level them, remove them, write a decree, in to whom it will be written, written for the time of martial law, everything, and define this procedure, short, clear, direct, with two signatures, and it is already on the battlefield, we are often happy that our partners. Provide us with weapons, so this weapon, when it is written in the telegram, what to us something was handed over, does nothing, does not protect my soldier in any way, this weapon only becomes a weapon when it is received by the appropriate commander of the combat unit, all this pr stuff about receiving a weapon does not solve anything, so stop being happy about it and lets work for abbreviated procedures, procedures of war, wartime, finally, you know it, like when , say, a surgical operation takes place, i used to follow it as a journalist, well, behind the glass, but imagine if, say, the surgeon says to clamp the scalpel there , something to do, and the assistants do it instantly, because its a persons life, so imagine if the nurse said, give me a piece of paper so i can hand you the scalpel, give me three pieces of paper and confirm somewhere in there that ill give you a clamp for this, for vessels, well, a person died there on the table, exactly the same as in the war, it is a matter of even sometimes not days, i am not even. No, but i understand it very well, communicating with warriors, how important is it . I thank you for the comparison, its just a surgeons speech for one lifetime, in my case for dozens of dashes of hundreds of lives, and i am asking everyone who is involved in this issue, especially the president , write this decree, let the nsdc consider it, you sign the decree and we will have a simple, clear procedure, we received help, transferred it to the units, transferred it immediately in the armed forces, thank you very much. Who needs these units, who needs these things, we will figure it out ourselves, if you trust us, soldier, your protection is yours, then trust us already with weapons, no matter how we manage, thank you very much, mr. Pavle, words from the front are much more important than many analysts and people who assess risks, opportunities, here you dont assess these risks and opportunities, you just see them every day and this is what you see, thank you for your service, first of all and on behalf of myself, i think on behalf of all our. Viewers and for these comments, Pavlo Kishkar, chief of staff, deputy Battalion Commander of the armed forces of ukraine, well, really, this red tape, sometimes it is not necessary and not important at all, well, under different conditions, but basically. What the military says is understandable , that we need to react much faster, contact us now oleksiy goncharenko, peoples deputy of ukraine, mr. Oleksiy, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, i am glad to see and hear, i will start with this, well, i dont even know how to call it correctly, i will not call it at all, peoples deputy klitschko from the servants of the people is suspected of illegal enrichment by 11 million hryvnias, and i only care about yours. An understanding of why in the third year of the war, in fact, such sums can unexpectedly appear, or property for certain amounts, how much more there can be, how much work the relevant authorities have to do with that, to reveal such strange plots, incomprehensible apartments, cars, assets and bank accounts, please, of some deputies, well, to be honest, it is rather unclear why it all took so long, because, let me remind you, they were journalistic the investigation, it all started with them, which showed that after. He became a peoples deputy, just what a golden rain fell on his entire family, his mother is a pensioner, i dont remember exactly, but it seems that she bought a tesla, Something Like that , so there is a mother, a sister, someone else there, everyone bought new apartments, everything is there, and besides, these are some people who have never been involved in our business, that is, businessmen, okay, well, but this was clearly not the case, and all this began immediately after he became peoples deputies, and he also headed the committee, after that, as i understand it, it seems that he was moved from the committee, transferred to some other committee, but there was no business there, and with journalistic investigations, it was all limited to a certain stage, well, but as we can see, it still came to something, ah, and already there are already some suspicions, let them investigate further, only the court will answer, but as for mr. Klitschko, he is one of those servants of the people. About which questions have been raised for a long time, and finally let them investigate, lets see and see what the result will be. And now to the international topic, but which directly concerns ukraine, because ukraine obviously plays a key or one of the key roles here, because if it were not for the war in ukraine, this would not have happened at all, we are talking about the peace summit, which is to be held on 1516 june in burgenstock in switzerland is not far from lake lucerne. And president zelensky said that this is the first opportunity to really talk about peace, and what should be expected now, and again, the most important thing here is how dynamic, effective, perhaps, and above all, certainly dynamic and substantive negotiations are going on now , as they say, behind the noise and smoke of the war in preparation for this summit, because depending on how dynamic these are. This will obviously give an understanding of whether we should expect something substantive from this, from of this summit in switzerland . Well, lets see, the fact that huge preparations have begun for him is a fact, this is evidenced by the fact that the big tour of the chinese leader xi jinping to europe begins on may 510, for the first time in many years he comes, the chinese leader comes to europe, there is a very. France, hungary and serbia. Well, it seems to me that the very fact of such a selection of capitals, where xijin pin goes, speaks volumes. I think that he will also talk about this. The key question is who will be at this peace summit. It is already known that russia will not be there, but well, yes, it actually, well, sounds like the position of ukraine, which we dont want. With russia, we want to work out a unified position of all other countries, and then put pressure on russia together. Well, god forbid that it should work out, but if, for example, there is no china, if there is no india, or there is also brazil, such large countries, which today either take a neutral position or, in general, quietly play against russia, as this is done by china, well, im not afraid that you shouldnt expect something directly breakthrough. I will. Be very happy if during this peace summit the circle of countries that stand on ukrainian positions will expand, this can be expanded by some countries of the global south, in fact, a huge amount of work should be done with africa, latin america, asia, because there, well, there is not a plowed field of work for ukrainian diplomacy, they must be included, but i repeat , well, if russia, china, india, brazil are not there, then the performance. Will give some specific results, well, im not sure, but i dont want to be at the start, you know. A pessimist, god forbid that all this should work out, and ukraine should try to impose its own agenda and own vision, but lets not forget and be realistic that without a battlefield, there is no situation on the battlefield, well, putin understands only force, force, force, once again force, this is what putin and other tyrants understand, well, but you see, weapons are being handed over to us, he said very well. Pavlo kishkar, an officer of the armed forces of ukraine, who says that the weapons that were handed over are not there, while they are not in the positions, while they are not in the army, and secondly, that certain ukrainian developments, which could be in the army, are very often delayed due to this bureaucratic the red tape arranged by officials, well , in particular the ministry of defense, and here i turn to the issue of restarting the government, as they say, after the holidays, this matter may be taken care of, but there is an idea to reduce the ministry. To reformat, in your opinion, without a clear plan and understanding that the reformed government can really give new things, is it worth starting to do it, well , just to reduce expenses, maybe, but here is the question of efficiency, well, if we change something in wartime, it must to work more efficiently, well, for the economy, because now the economy is also in a difficult situation, all this is not news either, and i will tell you that sometimes we know ukrainian. Reductions, for some reason, after reductions, expenses for the bureaucratic apparatus very often increase, to pay compensation to all those who were dismissed, to rename the ministry, to reassign, and then suddenly once again there were more officials in the end, i am, to be honest , generally skeptical about this, because the problem of the Ukrainian Government is not that there is a ukrainian cabinet of ministers, it is more correct to say, not that there are any. Such ministry, the problem of the ukrainian cabinet of ministers is that it has a formal role, that it is a decoration, in reality our government is in the office of the president , and all this is that our cabinet of ministers simply carries out the instructions that come from there, so what difference does it make who will be the executor, well whats wrong with you, you dont know all the executors there vertically, where you dont know it, its not interesting at all, well, thats why our government has turned into such executors, thats why, well, they change one minister for another. It will absolutely not affect any of their effectiveness, efficiency, i i am skeptical about this, it seems that this is done simply so that something is done, to demonstrate that something seems to be changing, some people here and there, someone has been changed, well, i dont know, i repeat, the problem of the Ukrainian Government is that it is absolutely not independent , this is a department of the office of the president , so the main reform that i would carry out there. It would be to disconnect the telephones with the office of the president , well, lets say, it is always clear that they should all work there together, but that they should not just perform all the instructions that come from there. And one more thing one thing, general skibitskyi, the representative of the main intelligence, stated that ukraine will not be able to win the war only on the battlefield, and it is necessary to look for other negotiation opportunities, first of all, different means and methods of pressure. To the russian federation, now in the third year of the war, a year in fact, after the expectations of a great counteroffensive, i thank our heroes who gave their lives and gave their health so that this counteroffensive at least to some extent had results, here again it must be said that we are at war with a very numerous resource and a powerful enemy, but a year after that, in fact, we hear information that ukraine will not be able to win the war only by fighting a year after some expected coffee in the crimea, and some were already. Selling tickets for the kyiv train simferopol and tickets for his concerts in yalta, well, its simple to say the least, what is it connected with, how to explain it to our viewers, because people have read and now think what mr. Skibitsky meant. I understand that you are not mr. Skibitsky, but still, your assessment and understanding of this and this statement is primarily for for the general public, because it is said for everyone, well, yes, i am not mr. Skibitsky, but what can i say, well, first of all. You know, just a year ago, i always tried to give such a voice, lets say , to conservatism , or common sense, that not everything is so simple, and i have certainly never sold coffee on the Christmas Tree embankment, and i have always been very careful about it, but even now the words of mr. Skibitsky, well, how can such wars, well, wars different, what does it mean that he just wins on the battlefield, in principle, that is , if not. Has a win, if any, conditionally say a draw, then it doesnt happen on the battlefield, and in general, wars are either won or lost on the battlefield, but if in the end. In the rest of the war, it comes to a certain draw, well then, of course, it can be completed then only by negotiation. But somehow we were told something completely different, even quite recently, that there was only a complete victory and so on. And here somehow it is necessary to understand, this is new, it is just being tested by the authorities, ukrainian society, this is our new approach, and why is it voiced then, well, with all due respect, the deputy chief of the gurna is. Dear officer, general, but this is not the top political military leadership of ukraine, why does it come from him . I have a question for a long time, what is our plan, well, i have a question, i tried to understand it for a long time, from this, from this, well, besides yes, we have a plan, a complete victory, that is clear, the best option, then we heard from kuleba, from others, that there is no plan, no plan in ukraine, it always stressed me, because it cant always be like that. A person must have a plan b, and for this there is a power to she was preparing both plan a, and plan b, and plan c. There must be different plans. Unfortunately we have to thank you, i really dont like to interrupt guests, especially such distinguished guests as you, im sorry i took so long to answer, espresso channel, thank you very much, mr. Oleksiy, for joining, thank you for your comments, oleksiy goncharenko, peoples deputy of ukraine was in touch with us, and now to the news, so in kharkiv , an 82yearold woman and her baby died due to an attack by russians. Arose from the rubble of her own house, where she was bedridden due to a stroke. The Regional Prosecutors Office informs that two more people were also injured. The occupiers hit the private sector of the kholodnohirskyi district with sledgehammers. 12 residential buildings were damaged, three more were completely destroyed. In germany, an educational institution, a civil enterprise and a tram with passengers. Fortunately, no one was injured in it. There are no such things here, well, many kilometers in a radius, that is , there is nothing like that even near there, even 2 kilometers away, the headquarters is deployed, there where all the information about the destruction or something is gathered needs, there are also volunteers and my colleagues and our team here, we help as much as we can there, who needs clothes, who needs food, because. Now there is no water or electricity, well, a big thank you for your work to everyone who helps people civilians in such a difficult situation. In kherson , explosions have been ringing since the morning, the occupiers are covering the suburbs of the Regional Center with fire, fires started from enemy ammunition hits, firefighters had to put out a residential building and a summer kitchen. Fortunately, there were no casualties. And the enemy, vile and cynical, more and more often, i would say criminally, uses prohibited chemical munitions on the front. Last month alone, the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine recorded almost 450 such cases, and this is 70 times more than in march, and since the beginning of the fullscale invasion, the occupiers have fired poison at Ukrainian Military positions up to 200 times, which is a direct violation of the convention on the prohibition of the use. Weapons, as well as the laws and customs of warfare, are emphasized in the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. Well, now we will have it, we are adding it today, briefly about the news, then we will have a very important and interesting story, and now we will add our guest to the conversation, because there is also a very important topic in fact, and a very important event. Mustafa dzhemilov, the leader of the crimean tatar people, is in touch with us, mr. Mustafa, congratulations. You, good afternoon, and so, here is such an interesting story that you called on turkey to cancel the concerts of the russian ensemble of songs, well, what do they call themselves, songs and dances, of the russian army named after alexandrov in turkey, they announced these concerts for the commemoration victims of the genocide of the crimean tatar people on may 18 in memory of the victims of the cherkasy genocide on may 21, and please tell us more about this story, about how it was possible to achieve. What you wanted and why, in your opinion, russians rush to other countries with their military bands . We learned about this from the reports of the turkish press, in particular the carrara newspaper, and then there were phone calls from caucasian and crimean tatar organizations in turkish that they are the russian choir of the red army
