You have already read this, you have already heard the russian barbarians , you cant say it otherwise. Have you seen the footage from mm educational institution, you have seen these destructions and after that they will Say Something about the fact that their weapons hit only the targets specified by the higher command of this subarmy, this is an example of what they say and what is actually happening now you can see on the footage uh, this house happened at about 8 20 in the morning, this inhuman shelling volodymyr zelenskyi, the president of ukraine, has already posted this video, as usual, condemned it and asked the International Community to give uh some kind of assessment because what happened, well, what assessment can be made here, the collective action must condemn what russia is doing, after all, not only the collective action, all conscious people who live in this world, looking at this footage, must not just condemn the actions of russia, but must somehow shout in chorus and demand from the colossus putin, in order to immediately stop this aggressive, this terrible war that he started on february 24 last year, which has been going on for more than a year and a half on our territory , taking more and more human lives , and to immediately withdraw all troops from the territory of our country, then it will be possible to talk about some initiatives or peace plans that will allow president zelensky and putin to sit in the same school and for them to talk, but we are negotiating with this word, we must sit as winners over the aggressor , so what is my guest . I am glad to introduce him, this is andriy rudyk , a political scientist, phd in the field of social and behavioral sciences. Andriy i congratulate you. Glory to ukraine. I congratulate yuriy. Glory to the heroes. How long has it been since you were on our air . I am very happy for them, especially considering the fact that this is the topic we are dealing with, you are just a professional specialist, you are the only one in the end, maybe even the biggest specialist in ukraine on this matter. And we will talk with you about africa, about african countries and about what happened at samp in st. Petersburg last week this is such a summit russia africa mr. Andriy please tell me this is the first such question you know, maybe i dont even want to hear a very angry answer from you, just your thoughts , what do you think about it . Putins relations with if this can be called a collective africa, although look, i just asked you this question and lets first figure it out. Is there actually such a thing or was it presented . Is there such a thing as a collective africa and was it presented in st. Petersburg . And if it was, then what are putins relations with this collective africa or simply with the leaders of african countries or collective africa unfortunately there is no such political concept, well geographically you can talk, you know politically collectively there is no collective africa because after all, depending on regional specifics, including ethnic specifics, on the historical colonial past, well, two, and even on the existing problems of the existing political regions of africa. They differ from each other , therefore there was no collective africa at the summit. Some conclusions are drawn for russia in general. Well, she is trying to show him how successful he is for her. I wouldnt say that he was successful. He was. I failed. Why failed . Because a number of states well, traditionally there are such as guys there, they traditionally ignored him, they are not interested in him, but quite a lot of countries or their representation has changed a lot. For example, if it happened with you, then either the president or the head of the government was represented there, then in general they sent the minister of agriculture or the ministry there minister of ecology well, for example , as in the case of djibouti, the same thing, although russia is trying to show that they live there and everything is fine, but it is not quite so, well, it is the specificity itself, because to be, that is, the same wonderful, just showed us, for example, here in ukraine, where exactly is the allied ocean of africa . Or rather, russias allies in africa are there and the Central African republic and bukinafaso and small and rhetoric, but this is , i apologize, a secret for the decision maker, in fact, this is already a wellknown fact andrii, please tell me, you already said about botswana, and it seems that there was not yet a representative of kenya , zambia, and this. Well, as far as i know, as far as i know. In this case, i know little about africa, but from the fact that i read that this is one of such sufficiently developed countries on of the african continent, this may indicate that, well, what they expected to hear from putin on this is that they were simply not interested , that is why they did not send their representatives there, well, they are not simply not interested, they do not need it in principle, by the way, about kenya, really i agree, this is a very important player in east africa, it already happened there after the problems of samara, because it was you who at one time claimed regional leadership in this region, but kenya is really an important player in relation to zombies, and by the way, it is demonstrative here it is worth mentioning that hakkain de hichelema, the president of zambia, he was present in the african delegation that came to kyiv, and you know, i even jokingly explained that in principle he was a random passenger in this company because there, well, i apologize for such expressions, but it so it really was. Because if you look at the comorian leader in particular. No, he is a staff colonel. At one time, he seized power in the country through a military coup. Now he is elected president , another story in egyptian Prime Minister mustafa. He is also not such a specific person, because in egypt it is impossible to say that there is no democracy at all, the same applies to the minister of Foreign Affairs , this er jojoudongo and so on. Maki sava of the senegalese president , he generally looked quite strange because he is a longstanding , longstanding opposition figure in zambia. He is known for his opposition activities and so on. And in principle, his coming to power marked changes not only in principle together and to the south african region as a whole and precisely the absence of zambia. And by the way, in the past it is there that i was represented just then when the president was not hakkain and other issues and accordingly just this indicates that well there russian by the way, the resources tried to show whats up with kenyazambia . Well, they attributed them to a state that either has the potential of raiding the orbit of the Russian Federation or is really drifting, that its all simple. Sorry, a propaganda fiction. Thats it, thats the black Sea Grain Initiative well, lets be a few direct languages, and lets start with the direct language of the master of the kremlin, the main world criminal, vladimir putin, what he said about grain at this summit, we will be ready in the next month, in the next 34 months without you, locally provide burkas on the face of zimbabwe, small somalis of the Central African republic of eritrea under 2550 thousands of grains, we will provide free delivery of this product to the consumer well, we see there who applauded because he said later there is a response from the representative of burkina faso that russia is a partner and ally, that we support everything there. But there were other reactions , for example, the head of the african union, and in general , the people of assumon, lets listen to the situation when president putin said that he is ready to help us with supplies grain is important, but perhaps not enough, we must achieve a ceasefire because it is always something unpredictable and the longer it lasts, the more unpredictable it becomes president putin told us that he is ready for dialogue and finding a solution now we have to convince the other on the other hand, i hope it will work out fine with us, but it is not enough, says this gentleman. Because we still need to talk about ukraine and one more reaction of the president of the south African Republic, syril ramaphos lviv, we are not here to beg for donations for the african continent. We realize that out of generosity from the sincere heart of the Russian Federation, you decided to donate grain for a number of countries on the continent that are facing problems, we respect and accept it, but for us the issue of providing and donating grain to the african continent is not the main thing, although we we accept your decision. I dont know, we cant get into putin s head and see what he expected from this summit, or did he expect that everyone would come and applaud him there and say thank you, thank you, or maybe he hoped that there would be such a reaction, that is , right here we thank you, but this is not what we want to talk about now. Please tell me if the leaders of at least such powerful african countries will be able to put pressure on putin anyway. To what he did before in ukraine, well, look here, the answer to this simple question is quite simple, why is this whole story with the withdrawal from the grain agreement . Because putin needs this african summit in order to come to putin and try to negotiate with him first not ukraine came first africa comes then africa starts through some channels of communication there you prove to your European Partners what you see there is such a problem with putin there we need to talk and so on, lets probably tilt ukraine anyway, that is, all this the story to that well, this is a traditional reception, it was just during the ato period. Thats how there was the minsk campaign, there were various negotiations , the campaign, meetings in paris with you, of course, and so on. Putins task is simply this. He, im sorry, is like an offended child who wants to talk to him that is, that he wants to show that he is important, everything is decided by him, as russia says, so it will be, that is, to her african states, he was from here, by the way, constant bombings , the situation that you see, ukraine cannot provide you with grain, it cannot create security and why . Because they dont want to negotiate with russia. Thats who i am in front of you. I heard you. Now you tell that to the ukrainians there , to the europeans, let them come to us to figure it out, and the whole story boils down to that. Well, what about the amount of grain that he promised there . Im sorry, its ridiculous, even the sum no, its just the president of the comoros shown, well, the population of the comoros is less than a million , there are about 800,000 people, even if up to 800,000 people is a small amount, then im already silent there are several million of the population of the Central African republic there already tens of millions of us there is two hundred thousand dollars and so on. These are just symbolic gifts. Well, thats all cool. Its not realistic. There is a solution to the problem, or a real solution to the situation. And at the level of the fact that russia traditionally creates an imaginary problem for itself, it heroically fights with it and tries then this is the socalled heroic decision to sell its clear well, look how much i understood from what you said a little earlier, that is, about the socalled african peace plan or the socalled african peace initiative, we can its simple. Well, how to forget. We must remember that it was in history, in history, but it will not have any significance for the end of the war in ukraine, the russian war in ukraine , look, we do not work, we do not forget the initiative. You know here from such a political analysis. Well, i was interested you know, and so on, he also spoke on one tv channel yes, in principle, they wrote publicly, publicly stated , look, this is the situation, they are coming to us. In any case, do not consider this state there, but it is a state they have all over the world. The embassy has less than 10 around the world, and 194 as a state along with storerooms. What is the fire . That is, in principle, it did not affect the state, even in the african makisavi is coming to the continent to negotiate something, a person who locked up the main Opposition Leader there, who had problems there with the fact that he wants to run for a third term, well, he has already given up on this idea, well, its off topic, the Prime Minister of egypt is coming there and in which state there are also problems with democracy and so on. That is, it is all the state , they are especially demonstrative of the chamber in this case and the statement of the uman gas station, they are easy and even on the continent, well, about egypt, i cannot say the same about south african the republic, but still. That is, these are the states. Well, it does not depend on them at all. The issue there is the resolution of aggression and its termination, that is, their task was, well, with these leaders, they transmitted the narratives that russia needed there. If not themselves, then for example through secretaries, as in this case with er secretary south prezyna and the south African Republic of sivarova fosi, when did the rocket alarm strike, the shelling was a missile, who declared that if it wasnt for russia and so on, we know this whole scandal, how it changed and so on, that is, the task was for all african president s well, at least not all of them, because i will repeat myself from english, the leaders were there by chance just to advance the necessary standards , and this whole plan is in itself stillborn, the task of all these plans is, you know, slowly pushing ideas what you see, ukraine needs to sit down at the negotiating table with the Russian Federation on the terms of the Russian Federation. Well, this is absurd. You understand it yourself. Now, the most important thing is that the leadership of our country does not succumb to this. I am sure that do not give mr. Andriy two words about what is happening in nigeria aa mm please tell me how it can generally affect the situation in the continent of africa and in general the attitude of African Leaders to solving International Problems well, look here, i will not start i will start with the continent of our west, about west africa, that is, the western part of the continent of africa, the situation is such that, in fact , in a few years there have already been four military coups in this region, and we have small ones, and we had a few there, in fact, i was there for a while, and amado himself wa
