, was she ready to start and did she start an attack on ukraine . Mr. Sergey, well, if we look at the biography of the director of the cia, he was generally called the secret weapon of the United States, the secret diplomatic weapon of the United States, by the atlantic magazine in 2019, because this person, he is first of all a highclass, highprofessional diplomat, and who was the United States ambassador to russia. He was also behind the preparation of the, lets say, agreement on iran, so this person, he prefers diplomacy, that is, personal contacts, during which he, you know, he can not only capture the reaction of a person, but also understand that in fact, it happens there, and such visits are primarily related to his professional activities, and again, that is, he gives such personal contacts a priority, just like on the eve of the war, when he visited. To russia, that is, his goal was to make sure , to see, to feel in the interlocutors, that is , in the leadership of the Russian Special services, and personally in putin, already, as they say, the irreversibility of their decision there regarding military aggression against ukraine, the number of visits is precisely on the territory of ukraine testifies, regarding interest, and strategic interest, and important, you know, such professional things, they are constantly in his field of vision, and what he gives. Maybe there is a preference for personal trips there, this is of great importance for ukraine, therefore thats exactly what it is evidence that all the statements of the United States, they are certainly supported at the level of the departments and the line of the department of defense of the United States, but now, in fact , we are all waiting for the unlocking of this significant package of American Financial military aid there, and what are your predictions or . Do you accept the situation that a prolonged delay in this aid could have such, well, irreversible leveling processes for the front line that our armed forces are now receiving, and then what the consequences would be, then for the authority of the United States, could you still to assume that this plan b, which was already mentioned yesterday, will be put into action, and we will still receive the muchneeded samples of weapons in order to hold the front line and continue to challenge the enemy. Maximum impression, when we always evaluate any processes in the development, we always make approximately three options, the worst, what can be the best, but in intelligence it should always give the worst option, and here is the worst option, this is, for example , the fact that we will have to stay there for some time, well, lets say this, with the resources of our european partners, and these negotiations and corresponding decisions are already there today, they have already been adopted. And it seems to me that the most important thing for our partners to understand today is that not only are the tactical successes of russia in seizing certain villages here and there, they are important, but it is the fact that today the losses among servicemen of the armed forces of ukraine are increasing, multiplying, why, why that precisely in the absence of the correspondingly necessary number of artillery rounds, and including there for far from our combat weapons, but what in the Strategic Perspective is that all our. Partners also need to look at history, because in those occupied territories during those 10 years and the youth who grew up, they are now replenishing the russian army with contracts, and if, if god forbid, they believe that ukraine can still lose this war there, then they must understand that in 10 years, russia will be replenished with the human and, lets say , Industrial Resources of ukraine, which will significantly strengthen its capabilities and further inspire there further aggression. Already directly, in relation to countries like nato and europe, and they are already starting to think about it today.

Kateryna oliynyk, oleg polyamar, espresso tv channel. Well, we continue the great ater and now its time to talk about the fact that outside of ukraine, the world about ukraine with yuri fizer has happened. Yury, good evening, please. Good evening to you vasyl, good evening to everyone who joined us today. So, about whether germany is afraid of an attack from russia, hungary did not give ukraine a few words. Aid dollars and balcony drop in russia. My name is yuriy fizer and this is the column world about ukraine, i will start in a moment. Well, ill start with this. Whoever said anything about the fact that the german tabloid bild its a tabloid and shouldnt be trusted, but truth be told, thats the publication. Was one of the first who, in december 2000, even in november 2021, published detailed maps in its columns with the directions of the russian terrorist forces advance into ukraine, and they then drew these three directions from the north, from the northeast, from the east, and from the south, and that is why today we should trust them, well , we probably have to, because they have some sources, and so on. The previous evening , bild journalists, citing their own sources, reported that the German Government has already a readymade plan in case of a hypothetical attack by russia. It consists of four stages. First, the German Government believes that the kremlin will launch a massive disinformation campaign. The second phase will begin with large maneuvers of Russian Troops on the borders of the alliance, then there will be a direct attack by russia on nato member states. Well, the fourth phase is a breakthrough. Terrorist troops, terrorist countries to the territory of germany, while the use of biological, chemical and Tactical Nuclear weapons by Russian Troops is not excluded, in addition, the authors believe that the Russian Federation can use a Nuclear Electromagnetic pulse, which will be used at an altitude of 50 km and will disable all electronic devices. Well, here is such information , i emphasize once again, the publication says that this is only. Preparation for a hypothetical attack, but when you know the information, then you are ready, so it is important that the German Government prepares for this, for any scenarios. If russia wins in ukraine, then we may see more warriors on planet earth, so there should be different options on the table regarding how to help ukraine better and more. About this in an interview with a british tv channel. Said estonian Prime Minister kaja kalas. Answering the presenters question about whether the head of the estonian government does not rule out the possibility that western troops may be present at a certain moment. On the territory of ukraine, she replied that in the west such a possible step is mostly considered as an escalation, although, in her opinion, it should rather be considered as a defensive reaction, and then the direct speech of the Prime Minister of estonia, kai kalas. Russia wants to intimidate me and estonia, and thus force us to refrain from making decisions in support of ukraine, western unity. All the things that annoy them very much, but i am convinced that we should not be afraid and we should not refrain from making such decisions, becaus
