agreements with european institutions, last week a delegation of the european commission was in ukraine, where we laid out a clear calendar of events, and therefore... for june, we are aiming for the leaders to find strength and approve the negotiation framework. it's not a secret, it's something we talk about openly, it's not only for ukraine, it's for all countries that want to join the eu. parts of the negotiations that concern the rule of law, the fight against corruption, anti-terrorism, judicial institutions are the first to open, the first to be monitored and the last to close. there is no change in... government oleksandr kornienko, the first vice-speaker of the verkhovna rada, explained why the level of trust in his institution is falling. he noted that we have gone beyond the election cycle, so citizens are naturally waiting for elections, which cannot be held due to the war. at the same time , kornienko added that in order to preserve trust

, it is necessary to communicate about the processes taking place in the council and to make decisions in the interests of the people. when the verkhovna rada will... to make decisions in the interests of the people, in the interests of defense capability, in the interests of joining the eu, for example, and most of the recent decisions are aimed precisely at this or at obtaining appropriate financial resources from partners, then of course it will be, i think, well, trust will fall less, or it will grow, it is difficult for me to say, but according to preliminary data at the occupiers' airfield in dzhankoya... three air defense batteries, several helicopters, an ammunition warehouse and other important targets were destroyed, this was a joint operation of the main intelligence department and the sbu, - ukrainian media reports. at night , explosions rang out in the temporarily occupied place, then a large-scale fire broke out near

the military airfield. let me remind you, first of all, the full-scale invasion of military support dollars. the money will be given over the next five years for lethal and non-lethal care. this is stated in the federal budget presented by the government of the country for this year. the budget also provided 350 million canadian dollars to respond to large-scale humanitarian crises. another billion will go to help housing for asylum seekers. the intelligence committee of the us house of representatives appealed to congress to urgently approve aid to ukraine. for a secret briefing. the statement was released by the chairman of the committee, republican mike turner and democrat jim himes. both congressmen noted that the congressmen were briefed on the critical need for military aid to ukraine already this week. for now, this is

all the news for this hour. to learn more, stay tuned to our espresso website. tv, as well as ours social networks then my colleagues will be waiting for you, we will see you in a moment. dear friends, we are back in ether, this is our final hour for today in the espresso marathon. olesya vakulyuk, andriy saichuk, we will spend this hour for you, we have. there are more interesting guests ahead, we have several interesting topics for you, but first i want to remind you that we are collecting in progress, and we have less than 50 thousand left, less than 50 00 in order to collect a million hryvnias for fpv drones, and

a million is half of the amount that we have needed for two brigades to purchase fpv drones for the 93rd and 72nd, only... we have half the equator, we're almost there, i hope today actually will reach the 1 million mark and we will start collecting the next million. it seemed almost unreal, but for several weeks and we have been persistently doing it with you and will continue to do it until we close this collection for fpv drones to destroy moscow equipment, this is how you have seen it now on your screens, qr codes , see card numbers, scan during the broadcast, it will be in the lower left corner, if you look at the screen, a qr code will appear, and also on the title you will also see the card number, this is for those who do not know how to use those qr codes, and in the meantime we will to talk about international politics

and i wanted to say that the russian media already officially, not officially, but write and confirm that several explosions took place in dzhankoya at the military airport in dzhankoya, occupied crimea, according to preliminary data, the russian media write, the dzhankoya airfield was attacked seven or by eight eight missiles, possibly ballistic missiles, that these are missiles belonging to the armed forces of ukraine, and at the moment there are no reports of losses, i remember when we were at the first hits somewhere in the crimea, how happy the ukrainians were, how quickly our meetings moved when the ukrainians were good enough to support our army, and now it happened with such a familiar thing, well, it flew to the crimea, think, we have ballistics that would reach dzhankoy, as far as... i know, there is none, and this is not the point of the ou, respectively, unless these are the same

atakams about a limited number of which it has been reported that the united states may have transmitted to us, perhaps this is the attack, to the attacks themselves, pardon the pun. dear friends, in a word, if you are happy because you hit our girl, then transfer your hryvnias, meanwhile we will talk with viktor shlimchak, the head of the management of the institute of world politics, he is already appearing on ours and yours. this is actually a very interesting initiative of china, whether to take it seriously, china wants to create

a platform for peace talks, sit ukraine and russia next to each other and start negotiating, do they really have such intentions and what could that mean? i was just listening to your colleague vitaly bortnikov, who says that china is just interested in doing such a thing. an active platform, and here i want to debate with him in absentia, because in fact, the entire policy of china can be characterized as economy-centric, it is now important for china to absolutely clearly raise the level of the economy after the pandemic took place, the level of... in the country decreased and reached a mark of 2% there, well, if you believe it

according to official statistics, after 7-8% growth, which was there until 20, 20, respectively, now china is trying to restore the economy, and if we remember xi jinping's speech in his inaugural speech, he said then that it is bipolar. a world where there is china and the united states of america. and actually, in order for it to become a full-fledged competitor for the united states of america, they need to raise the economy to the level of the united states of america. let me remind you that it is about 25% of the total gross gdp of the world. china is somewhere close 19%. now and then, those boat voyages, then sidzenpinnya. russia, then the announced visit to the european union, to france, he should

come, then the trips of european leaders to china. this, unfortunately, is not about ukraine, and it is, unfortunately, not about the end of the war. it is about the exact kind of possible confrontation, or preparation for confrontation, or preparation for a great competition, which china declares. actually, about it even in the territory. of the united states of america, xinjin ping and joe biden said that they are not rivals now, they are great competitors. i i think that the strategic task of china is precisely... to reach such a level, to create great competition for the united states of america and to move towards this bipolar world. by the way, a column by a chinese professor of peking university who specializes in russia, an expert on

russia, fein yuyun, appeared in neiconist, who says that... and who believes that russia will lose in ukraine in the long run, or at least not will be able to achieve the set goals, and four different factors are called there, among what are the technological backwardness of russia, the poor level of management, the resistance, by the way, of the ukrainians, who turned out to be much more united than putin expected, and the fourth factor is the help of the west, which, according to the chinese expert, although it will decrease, but ... uncritically and ukraine will be able to resist, whether it is possible at all, whether we should be cautious, by the way, about the predictions of any peking experts, but this also means some new, new position of china in relation to this war. well, first of all, you should pay attention to where this publication appeared, if

it was published in one of the publications of china, which... in fact, all controlled there are under the communist party, so it could be considered as the position of some branch of the branches of the communist party of china. if it came out in the western press, well, let's say this, you can treat it, well, somewhat skeptically, because, i mean skeptically , not from the point of view of the conclusions, the conclusions are very important to us. like, well, we all like these conclusions that you just talked about, but we don't like, actually, how sometimes china helps, although not by military methods yet, but still helps russia, he helps russia first of all because he understands the fact that in this way he

weakens the west, the collective west he... weakens the united states of america, he weakens the democracies, which, since we are now talking about an existential, yes, there is an existential war between democracies and totalitarian regimes, that is, it is precisely china in this regard that supports russia to keep the balance, that is, it is my belief that for china now a disadvantageous loss. russia, absolutely unprofitable, a disadvantageous loss for russia, blinken, the us secretary of state, will also go to china, what should we expect from this visit and what will they talk about again in the end? i do not think that there will be any breakthrough consequences of this visit, i predict that

they will really try to drag china out, at least at the peace summit. firstly, secondly, they will try to convince that there is no need to help russia with the military, the military with some equipment and help with weapons, because if we analyze there, for example, non-military goods, and dual -purpose goods, they went to russia, so they... and continue to go, i mean the machines on which, relatively speaking, certain types of military products are made in russia, er, components , chips, all this continues to come to russia, as before, that is , it is completely unnecessary to talk about the fact that china has become less helpful to russia, and let's now talk about the main thing,

after all, what do we expect from the united states, or what- will be supported in the near future. help what are we doing now see, in particular, in the congress? well, i'm more optimistic about that, and it looks like this friday is going to be a window of opportunity for us, and i really hope that it's a window of opportunity, that we'll take advantage and those forces in the united states of america will take advantage of it. , who really want... ukraine's support. the only thing that worries me is, after all, the general position of the united states of america, which is based on the fact that they still want ... to have this management of escalation, that is, they do not want any special victories for russia now, but also they don't want special victories for ukraine, that is

, for the front to move in one direction and the other, controlled, absolutely controlled, why this is happening, because especially now the white house is interested in the election campaign going quite as planned, so that it goes without... some excesses and for the white house to be less distracted by international challenges that may be, and in this case, cynically of course, russia will on the contrary escalate the situation in order to prevent the white house from properly conducting the election campaign for joe biden, this is an obvious fact, due to the fact that everyone is already talking about it, that a russian counteroffensive is possible, they are withdrawing... certain forces in order to aggravate the situation at the front, accordingly, the ukrainians should simply receive now from the united states of america the necessary amount of weapons in

order to it is now in the interests of both joe biden's white house and the national interests of the united states of america to oppose it. and what is the time frame when it can be? because i've even seen it already, you know, we're talking about meetings now. yes, they too everywhere, everyone is organizing meetings, they are already gathering for the reinforcement of air defense over the chernihiv and sumy regions, and this means, in fact, that this help is very, very lacking, i predict that it may be the end of may, the beginning of summer, but it is also not excluded , that russia can use this very period between the elections, between the date of the election and the date of the... inauguration to further escalate the situation, in order to, after the election campaign in the united states of america, raise the stakes and really

try to get behind negotiation table with by the united states of america, this is its own strategic goal, the strategic goal of russia - to return to the warsaw pact, to sit down at the negotiating table with the united states of america. to divide the world, to influence part of the world, including part of europe, and putin said this very clearly in 2007, the world did not hear it then, he announced it very clearly at the munich security conference, and you remember that the next year in 2008, there was an invasion of georgia, then there was an invasion, well... and the so-called annexation of crimea, and all this is included in a single the scenario that putin is seeking already, well,

if we count from the seventh year, then already, if we count from the seventh year, then already the second dozen years, he wants to pawn the western world, negotiate with it and agree to the rules of the game that exist . there, relatively speaking, in the 90s, and now the world has the impression that it hears, but does not fully believe? well, you know, now the world has started to be a little more realistic, well , i mean, where most of the western countries have started to assess the situation more realistically, because if a year ago, when some analytical centers there in germany, france... wrote about the possibility of a direct conflict between nato and russia, it looked like a phantasmagoria, that is , it looked like such a scenario from the field

of fiction that a lot of people rejected the very idea, now they are talking about it more- less seriously, it is already included in such options are included in the potenka. modalities, which are drawn up in documents, respectively, we see that over the past year and a half, european countries have joined the arms race, this says a lot, that is, countries have begun to seriously prepare for possible challenges faced by the russian federation, and here it is necessary to understand: that when we talk about the peace summit, the most important thing for us is that it ends with one, so that our allies, who eat at this peace summit, record it.

an obvious fact: russia must lose. otherwise, each of the countries closest to russia, especially, will be at risk of the next attack in the coming years. well, in any case, for this we definitely need to formulate what we consider a victory for ukraine and what we consider a defeat for russia, since there can be very different approaches here, and whether we will have to, i think, if we withstand the russian offensive, and this year, finally understand these criteria, it is hardly wise to build criteria for ukrainian victory, such as the disintegration of russia, disintegration, i don’t know, a military parade in moscow, ukrainian tanks , it is hardly just realistic, but, but it is very important that our western partners really articulate that

russia must lose, lose. or at least not win, it's also different in fact, and this, it's just a big difference, between not winning, not winning - it's a lot options, and losing is an obvious fact, it is clear to everyone, and it should really be the surrender of russian troops, then we understand what we are dealing with. when we talk about not losing, these are just different scenarios, because we can be persuaded that russia has not lost there in many different ways, this is absolutely wrong, it is a false opinion, to talk about the fact that russia should not lose, you see, there one way or another, we need to start talking about it and understand where, where, where

our... well, that is, i think that everyone agrees that volodymyr's 10 points zelenskyi, let's put it this way, we need to discuss them, i would put it this way, start discussing them, viktor shinchak was with us, mr. viktor, thank you for the conversation and for donating to our collection for the military of the 93rd 72nd brigade, we we are going to take a short break, we will be back and continue, we will talk about fashion with meaning, stay with us. when you sleep on an uneven surface, the spine takes the wrong position, because you cannot feel energetic in the morning and productive during the day, and with the matryk toper you will forget that you are sleeping on an imperfect surface. order toper matrik for a comfortable sleep at an affordable price. more and more ukrainian families choose topper matryk, which comes in a convenient package that is easy enough to remove. within a day after removing the factory film, it
