The Russian Ministry of defense says that as many as 10 cruise missiles attacked sevastopol tonight during the broadcast updates will appear. And you can also follow them on all other platforms of radio svoboda. Well, we continue and try to establish contact with the spokesman of the naval forces of ukraine in order to he has more details, the results of this topic and we go further to others, yes, in the direction of bakhmut, the clearing of the village of klishchivka, which is located south of bakhmut, is ongoing. Everyone is informed about this and the analysts of the diphead project, according to their data, Russian Forces may still be in houses on the outskirts. In addition , on the online map of the course of military operations has clarified the front line in the verkhovka area. This is a Village North of bakhmut, for which fighting has been going on for the last months. This is how the front line looked according to dibstate data on september 11. On the 12th, analysts demonstrate a small advance of the armed forces of ukraine in the area of this village, and the general staff officially informs that the Defense Forces of ukraine are advancing south of bakhmut, at the same time restraining russian attacks in the direction of bakhmut in the area of the settlement of nyazhovovasilovka. This was reported by the speaker of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine andriy according to kovalev , the forces of the Russian Federation are also trying to advance in the region of klzysztof information , we only trust that information that is confirmed, therefore ilya is the head of the vlach the press service of the Eastern Group of the armed forces of ukraine joins our broadcast. Good morning to you. Greetings from plia studio. Well, according to the announcement of the general staff of the Defense Forces of ukraine , they are successfully holding back the russian offensive in the vicinity of horikhov vasilivka. To the administration of the borders of the Donetsk Region , which has already been mentioned several times. Is this an attempt to distract some ukrainian troops so that the Russian Forces strengthen their offensives in other areas of the front, the enemy receives a fairly significant grouping of troops there. This is about 50,000 personnel, and also more than two and a half hundred tanks, more than a thousand armored combat vehicles, about one and a half hundred artillery systems and a little more than 120 jet systems, that is, it can testify to the fact that there are also quite powerful forces there, and these are constant attacks by the enemy, as before we heard about the novoyagorsk direction, now there is near orikhov vasilivka on the northern flank of bakhmut, well, this indicates that the enemy is still trying to look for weak points in our defense, but to no avail, thanks to the properly built defense and the experience and heroism of our military, eh. There, the operation is ongoing , as soon as there is any official information, i will definitely inform you, however , in addition to this, we also have success on the andriivka e direction ee in the direction of the andriivka bakhmut National Point and kurdyumivka, the enemy continues intensive artillery fire from all types of weapons that he has. He also uses aviation. There are both military and Tactical Combat clashes , for example, one in the direction of bakhmut. There have been seven of them in the past day. Also , our armed forces managed to destroy 166 occupiers on this direction. Well, there are a lot of different techniques. If you are interested, you can report separately, that is , deepstate analytics are not in vain. They say that in the near future, let me ask. Yes, they can there should be good news from this direction, because the president also notes in his address to the ukrainian brigade , well, we have success there, lets not go ahead, eh. When the results are known for sure, then we will definitely inform you so that we are already confident eh in our situation if we talk, for example, about the percentage ratio of the forces of the Russian Federation, which are in the bakhmut direction, and the forces of ukraine, in terms of people, in technology, separately in aviation, what is this ratio in order to understand the actual how difficult it is at times every piece of deo to buy, i will say that i cannot name you because this enemy may be the information may be used by the enemy , however, i can say that the enemy has an advantage and in terms of personnel, he also has in the technique of aviation, however, thanks to our skillful actions of our manpads and also our e e antiaircraft Missile Systems , for example, this advantage in the air is leveled at the expense of our e Effective Work on air targets against enemy drones , as well as in artillery when, for example, their soviet models can no longer compete with western samples and the aiming and longrange power possessed by our samples such as krap panzer howitzer sam 777 caesar fh70 and others. Therefore, we compensate for this lack of quantity due to quality and superiority in ee people, we compensate them due to our asymmetric nonstandard actions actions that they are not used to, because i emphasize that they do not continue to use tactics, for example, fire shafts in contrast to our military when they shoot and inflict damage exactly on the target, that is, 1 2 there to three with the maximum number of shots, the target must be hit, but they, on the other hand, teach that if there, the soviet manual also wrote there about the number of thousands of ammunition intended for the destruction of the platoon reed support point, they still use it where they want to break through our border, where they accumulate their reserves they certainly dont skimp there, and neither on ammunition, nor on barrel artillery systems and jet systems. The deployment of the nato forces, you have not had a single combat encounter in the past day. Sometimes it happens that the enemy is now starting to use his tactics, probably this is due to the fact that he was previously very well beaten in the teeth near new horivka and other populated areas, but this does not mean that there are no hostilities there at all, yes , they are ongoing, the enemy is effectively asking for constant use of its artillery , there is constant shelling, yes, in the past day , the enemy fired 557 times on the position in the line of responsibility of the lymankupyanskyi a in the aa direction, in addition to this, the enemy continues to attack and has returned to attacking this settlement with a new head, that is, they are trying to precisely find such aa area. Where possible, they see a perspective for the development of their further military operations, however, thanks to our successful engineering miniexplosive barrier and tactics of action, i emphasize once again that the command of the Eastern Group of troops is constantly working there, the situation is constantly under control, all necessary measures are taken to prevent a breakthrough of the enemy in all directions in the directions, and adequate fire damage is inflicted on all detected targets, and our effective smuggling fight against drones is working , for example, our radio Electronic Warfare units over the past day in the area of responsibility of the Eastern Group of troops disrupted almost half a thousand enemy missions, that is, the drones did not reach the communication did not reach and of course with this the task was interrupted briefly if i may ask simply in order to understand luhansk that we are taking Luhansk Region today you too you can comment on this in your competence. Is it really yours . Then we have a question. Despite heavy losses, the russian occupiers are preparing for a new stage of assaults in the Luhansk Region. The head of the luhansk o ova, actually, mr. Li sobor, according to him, has previously informed about this in order to support their actions, the forces of the Russian Federation are forced to introduce additional, including armored vehicles, if possible, more details are known in this context, from where this equipment is imported, what is the general situation in luhansk oblast, well, in general , they bring equipment from the territory of russia they dont have any borders here, its easier for them to bring supplies here, to carry out supplies both in equipment and in people, and in the provision of their units. Well, this is not the first day that they continue to form. Reported that they are completing the formation of their shock units and since the time when i spoke about the shock fist the fact is that russia does not leave the targets and one of their main main goals is to capture the luhansk and Donetsk Regions, it is for this that they continue to intensify this direction, transfer their significant reserves here, and along with those , we record what they have with their modern, so to speak, equipment. Years, as well as with people, as i said earlier, they recruit military personnel for assaults who previously did not serve in the relevant units and provided troops there in the power units, that is why such assault groups they they are mixed from different categories of people from contract workers and from the mobilized, and sometimes also convicts, well, that is, they are such composite units that they use for their meat attacks, too, uh. Now, one of the interesting tactics in the limankupyan direction, when they use small and assault groups up to 10 seem to be sending them intensively aa and these assault groups have to establish themselves already with the support of artillery, as i already said, which they use effectively, but you see after getting in the teeth such small assault groups did not show their effectiveness, therefore the enemy simply resorted to intensive artillery shelling. Lets see what happens next. Thank you for such a detailed analysis. Will not officially announce, it is not necessary to draw conclusions, thank you. Russian forces attacked ukraine at night with attack drones of the shahed type. It was possible to destroy 32 drones from the 44th, they were launched from three directions, in particular, from the krasnodar region of russia, from the Kerch Peninsula , kursk itself, and the main direction of the attack was the Port Infrastructure of odesa, the head of the odesa military administration, oleg kipr, said that it was there that the drones were deployed along the Port Infrastructure over the danube. The attack itself continued four and a half hours due to the impact , nonresidential buildings were also damaged , a fire broke out at the Truck Parking lot, seven civilian drivers were taken to the hospital well today, the European Commission will look for corridors for the import of ukrainian grain , how to bring it out of ukraine, to take it out of ukraine, but in such a way as not to harm the Member States of the European Union. The eu has already declared that they want to extend the ban on the import of grain from ukraine, which expires on september 15. The details of this story will be told by our european correspondent zoryana stepanenko. The closer the deadline for restrictions on the import of ukrainian Agricultural Products to the eu countries neighboring ukraine is , the higher the degree of tension between kyiv , warsaw and brussels. On the eve of september, the borders of all European Union countries will keep the markets of poland , hungary, slovakia , romania, and bulgaria closed for the ukrainian harvest. Levels of the council of ministers, which requires brussels to extend the agricultural ban, otherwise, again, not in words. And already in the form of a resolution, they were forced to do it independently, contrary to eu trade rules, how long the National Bank can act is unknown. A castle for ukrainian grain is a preelection promise of the Prime Minister of poland personally, as is clear from the video published the day before. When we needed to help our neighbors, we opened our hearts the homes of the poles are like this when we have to fight for polish interests, only a government of justice guarantees that the interests of our farmers will be protected poland will not allow us to be flooded with ukrainian crops where the border of polishpolish solidarity is from ukraine and the usual sea around it leaves to the deputies why the ban is worth extending he said it proved its effectiveness as it helped to stabilize the markets in countries bordering ukraine and contributed to the improvement of the bands of solidarity, its grain was usually sold to indonesia, egypt and other parts of the world far from the eu , in order to continue delivering it there, it is necessary to attract the ports of the baltic and adriatic seas, and the main problem is not in infrastructure and money, the path of ukrainian grain to its usual markets will be longer. Therefore , the price of transportation is higher from 20 to 40 € per ton said the profile European Commissioner. His idea is to help ukraine with these funds and the ban on its agricultural imports to five countries. Continue because the alternatives are chaos, what alternative is the return of chaos, there will be unilateral solutions of individual Member States to the problems with blocking protests, and it will not be too much for ukraine in the situation of blocking ukrainian black sea ports, the extension of the temporary ban was a positive decision for our farmers, as well as from these five neighboring countries as well as from ukraine, ukraine is categorically against a further ban, and in the event of the introduction of a unilateral ban, poland threatens with arbitration in the World Trade Organization, that is, it is ready demand from the Court Compensation for the damages caused, while the last attempt to agree on a compromise solution on the platform that unites all involved ukraine, the five neighboring eu states, moldova, and the European Commission, its last meeting before the decision will be announced here this afternoon from brussels zoryan stepanenko mare hajduk radio svoboda , our european colleague zoryana stepanenko , is keeping an eye on exactly how the events surrounding ukrainian grain will unfold. I will only note that the ford bulgaria publication writes that the committee on Economic Policy and innovations of the parliament of bulgaria approved a draft decision that the country does not support the extension of the ban on the import of certain salts in oil products from ukraine after september 15 of this year, in particular, it refers to wheat, corn, rapeseed and sunflower seeds. The Parliament Must finally adopt this decision at the meeting, but those who agree with such a decision not all, in particular, the countrys farmers are against. Serhiy vashchenko, executive director of the ukrainian grain association, joins our broadcast. I congratulate you. Let s start with a simple explanation of the claim. For poland, it actually concerns not to sell grain in poland itself, but if, for example, it is introduced into the territory of ukraine and transferred from there to somewhere further, then we actually misunderstand such a decision , such a way is possible if europe allows to conditionally lift the embargo and sell in other countries, in fact today transit is allowed it was not banned neither in may nor in june. Well, after september 15, it is not expected either. That transit where prohibited is actually for us the main thing, because as you know, neither poland nor hungary nor romania are topics traditional markets, where we take grain, we take grain to western European Countries, to africa, to asia, but by no means to poland, so this is a cool market for us and not exactly an interesting one to take grain there, so the fears of polish farmers look quite strange. Well, most likely, how i think its more political whims and political games that in poland itself, because you cant call it anything other than flirting with the polish government and with polish farmers , given the large percentage of the electorate among the agrarians in poland, in other words, nothing there is no threatening decision announced by the polish ministers for ukraine and in order to sell ee in their own grain on the markets there. That is, it is more likely a preelection story that they are trying to electorally sway polish citizens to their side. It definitely goes beyond the scope of principles the eu in the principle of solidarity of aid this is definitely beyond the scope in the principle of the World Trade Organization , moreover, it can be assessed as uh, not Tariff Barriers in trade and our mr. Prime minister denys myhal is right when he says that ukraine will turn to the World Trade Organization for arbitration in this situation. This is an absolutely logical position of ukrainian farmers. Due to such actions , the rallies of polish farmers, which they hold regularly, also harm the transit through their territory, so of course these someone has to cover the losses and i am sure that the polish government must cover it. Well, actually, we remember several months of queues at the ukrainianpolish border , in particular with trucks that could not be imported, not sure grains so when we talk about losses and you say they are, how significant are they in comparison with Ukraine Ukrainian enterprises there earn from grain, i. E. How significant are these losses today , export by land is in itself unprofitable or close to zero, ukrainian farmers today do not they make money from what they transport overland there by cars or by rail. Therefore, this in itself is not entirely profitable, but considering the simple queue of rallies. Transportation therefore yes of course it is a loss and it is hundreds of millions of dollars, mr. Sergey, but if we are talking about grain, well , there is a conditional ban on taking it out, they cannot sell it , they cannot sell it where they wanted, we understand what the situation with the desks is happening, including how long it generally takes grain can stand on the territory of ukraine in order to be considered highquality later on the market and so that it can later be sold, sent, sent , problems with this in ukraine, we do not have enough grain storage enterprises, quality it is stored at the same level or at a similar level to the grown volume, there are no problems with this. It can be stored for quite a long period. Lets talk about ukrainian grain in general, its need on the world market today. Began and now with this grain corridor, there is still no solution, the topic has been discussed quite a bit in the western press, ukrainian grain on the world market today, how much it is in demand and those ways, the actual markets to which we supply it, how much they need it, but in the near future, if we talk about the Food Security of the world in general, of course, every year we see a shortage of grain. Not only the countries of africa or asia , it also affects the rich countries of europe, because in the absence of our grain, the price rises on the market , food inflation occurs in richer countries, of course, in poor countries, it is it follows from the fact that people actually cannot afford to buy this grain , and along with this, the next problem of migration arises, because if a person cannot find food for himself in his own country , he will look for food in another country, and there is an additional problem in the eu countries, which rather after all, they receive an additional inflow of migration, and this is a really big problem. We proposed to the European Commission a few months ago to implement such a mechanism that would provide that the European Commission would compensate for the logistical costs of grain transit from of our border to the ports of the adriatic or the baltic well, for example, to germany to italy to croatia. In this way, their idle ports will be used with our grain. Of grain why because it will be much more profitable to send grain to conditional croatia than to poland in this way, the situation is resolved positively for everyone, moreover , the funds spent on such compensation by the European Commission will be less, according to our estimates than the money they paid to polish farmers, so you were afraid, so to speak, you said that ukraine has never been oriented towards the polish market as such. Hmm, if we talk about this years harvest in ukraine in general, how high is it possible compared to last year . Not high, there is no loss. If it is in the context of grain, do you already have this data or are you collecting it . And actually, will this grain be enough to continue providing it in those markets where ukraine did it before, not to mention european from which, as you yourself said, it will not suffer a lot of losses. Well, every month we publish our forecasts for grain export production. The last forecast is dated august 31. According to our estimates, the harvest in ukraine will be about 80 million grain oil crops for export. It will be possible to leave about 49 million tons compared to last year, the export of ee last year amounted to 58 million, that is, count on almost 9 million ee, this year it will be less , while our production this year will be several million sixseven million more than last years harvest, this is a pretty good sign, but nevertheless, if we compare it with the prewar period, before the great war, in the 21st year, we collected 106 million tons of oilseed crops. This was a record for our previous years it was about a hundred. Therefore, you can imagine such losses because of the war, we have today, mr. Serhiy. If you read the forecasts of the experts that they gave for 2022, there are from 10 to 15 percent if i am not mistaken. Less grain will be collected, but for some reason this forecast did not come true and ukraine still shows good results, as you yourself said in the context of how much grain this year. Year yes, we definitely have a plus in terms of productivity, the weather played a good role in helping us with the productivity , but in general it is not as good as it might seem, it is 30 less than the harvest we used to harvest, of course the problems with export affected and Something Else so eh on this was primarily affected by the war, more than 6 million hectares today are either mined or need to be checked for mine contamination, this is about 25 of the cultivated areas. Grain and many, many other unpleasant things for which the russians also have to be responsible, and together it can be said that this results in such results, of course , there are also problems with exports, it is the impossibility of selling at the price and for which the money was actually spent on Grain Production this also affects the fact that later farmers will think about whether they should sow for the next season if they were not able to earn money last season, and this is a problem that may be in the near future. Thank you for taking the time and the opportunity to turn on and tried to put certain dots over it in those issues that are currently being actively discussed serhiy vashchenko , executive director of the ukrainian grain association, we talked about the ban that European Countries want to extend on you from ukraine to they imported their own ukrainian grain, this is a topic that everyone is actively following now, in particular our colleagues, that is why on all platforms of radio svoboda follow the update well , the explosions at the Sevastopol Shipyard can be seen on nasa satellite images that are publicly available, this was noticed by radio svoboda employee mark cool, he published a photo of a global map of fires that recorded fires in the sevastopol area at 1 a.
