00:08:46are leaders of both large and small companies,
00:08:49especially those involved in the production of drones or
00:08:53their components. Several heads of defense
00:08:56companies told the Financial Times,
00:08:59following recommendations from government security services, they
00:09:03strengthened security. According to intelligence sources, Russian
00:09:06officers are increasingly cooperating with organized
00:09:09criminal groups, using.
00:09:12cross-border networks of agencies and distributing intelligence,
00:09:16logistics, planning and execution among various participants
00:09:20of schemes.
00:09:2615 stories of children whose childhood was changed by the war, a collection
00:09:30of 15 essays about Ukrainian children who survived
00:09:33occupation, loss of loved ones,
00:09:37forced relocation and life near the front were presented in Kyiv.
00:09:40The name of the book is "The Thread That Weaves Stories of Children in
00:09:44War." The initiator of the publication is the Charitable Foundation "Voices
00:09:47of Children." 15 authors from Ukraine, Great Britain and
00:09:50Poland worked on the book. Part of the proceeds
00:09:53from the sale of the collection will be directed to psychological and
00:09:57psychosocial assistance to children through the "Voices
00:10:00of Children" Foundation.
00:10:02This experience is actually very different from growing up in Vienna was
00:10:05documented and so that I also think people
00:10:09adults in Ukraine and abroad understood that childhood. during
00:10:12the war, no matter how difficult it was, it still doesn't stop,
00:10:16as if these children don't have another time to live their childhood,
00:10:20and our adult responsibility is to make sure
00:10:23that the war... as little as possible and despite everything had an impact on
00:10:27their childhood and their subsequent adult life, stories of children during the war,
00:10:31it is clear that these are not very
00:10:34happy stories, that these are about
00:10:38their ruined destinies, about their ruined childhood, about their
00:10:42murdered children, about their lost lives and so on,
00:10:45so this was difficult to write,
00:10:49and more news you can read on our
00:10:53website espresso tv, we... will see you in less than
00:10:56an hour, and then there will be even more analysis from
00:11:00my colleagues Lesya Vatkuluk and Roman Chaika.
00:11:23Espreso, together with the charitable foundation. "Man and Law" asks to join the
00:11:27collection. I wish you health, we are infantrymen of the second battalion
00:11:30of the 109th separate brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. We are fighting in
00:11:33the Pokrovsk direction. To effectively destroy the enemy, military
00:11:37equipment needs to be systematically charged. This is not always
00:11:40possible due to the difficult conditions at the front. We appeal to the viewers and
00:11:44readers of Espreso with a request to support the most important
00:11:47collection for military charging stations. Welstrum stations,
00:11:51designed specifically for military needs and fully adapted.
00:11:55to military operations, capable of replacing generators and providing
00:11:58fighters with energy even in field conditions, these silent and
00:12:02powerful charging stations are necessary for performing combat
00:12:05missions. Every transferred hryvnia will allow us to quickly
00:12:09transfer such necessary devices to our defenders.
00:12:12Thank you for understanding, glory to Ukraine,
00:12:15glory.
00:12:41You are watching the main news on Espreso, we welcome everyone who
00:12:44joins us, thank you to everyone who is watching, and
00:12:47Lesya Vakulyuk, Roman Chaika, we are in this studio until
00:12:507 PM, stay with us, because we still have
00:12:54a lot to discuss. as for what Trump said,
00:12:57he added some topics to our conversation and
00:13:00thoughts, we will also talk about what
00:13:03is becoming more expensive in one part of Ukraine, namely rental
00:13:07real estate, while in another part of Ukraine, there is more
00:13:10real estate and
00:13:13fewer tenants, well, and we will also talk about
00:13:16people who continue to support Ukraine in this
00:13:20war, and are on our side, about
00:13:23volunteers from abroad. who come and help, despite everything,
00:13:27regardless of all sorts of changes in sentiment
00:13:30in the world, well, and also finally we will
00:13:34summarize our international policy, everything that
00:13:37happened in the international arena and concerns us, of course, during
00:13:41the week, that's our schedule for the next two hours, well, and now
00:13:45we will talk about Trump and his
00:13:48statements, from which it is somehow very, very disturbing at heart. Maksym Rozumnyi, Doctor
00:13:52of Political Science and expert of the Institute of Political and Ethno. journalists
00:14:15did not believe their ears and eyes,
00:14:18and in particular they conveyed
00:14:21to US President Donald Trump the words
00:14:25of the President of Ukraine, the delegation urgently left
00:14:28the negotiations, saying that they were used as a screen, that
00:14:32it was a weak move by a strong
00:14:34partner, it terribly offended Donald
00:14:37Trump, he said a lot
00:14:41about the bad President Zelenskyy, who needs to be immediately
00:14:45re-elected, but most importantly, he
00:14:48once again began to demand that
00:14:51the interests of my rednecks on farms... who
00:14:55fuel their tractors with diesel are more important than
00:14:58the lives of some Ukrainians, who are being destroyed with bombs and
00:15:01rockets right at this minute, and this
00:15:05cynicism, in my opinion, tore apart even
00:15:08the ranks of Republicans
00:15:12before the midterm elections. President Zelenskyy, however, said that
00:15:16Ukraine, even when it went to Miami, carried it in its bag, and
00:15:19now is ready to stop strikes on Russian oil refineries, about
00:15:23which Trump talks so much.
00:15:25and masks, yes, but if Russia stops hitting energy
00:15:28infrastructure, and right at this moment we are talking, they
00:15:32continue to hit energy infrastructure, Rivne without
00:15:36electricity, part of Kyiv. without electricity, in short,
00:15:39there are no, no hints from Putin that he is ready for
00:15:43such a formula, not even a hint. So what should we
00:15:47do in this case with such ultimatums and
00:15:50threats, because there are threats to stop the transfer of intelligence
00:15:54data, and these threats can then also escalate into certain
00:15:58types of weapons, for example, Patriot PAC-3, in particular
00:16:01missiles that we need for ballistic missiles, in short, what will come of this now?
00:16:05вийде?
00:16:08Well, what's new in this picture of
00:16:11our world, it's actually, well,
00:16:15Donald Trump's words or behavior, which is also not
00:16:18new, such attacks happened to
00:16:21him, both political cynicism and
00:16:25such eccentric behavior and statements, all this
00:16:28has already happened, but,
00:16:32in fact, how all this affects the process and what, what this
00:16:35may mean, I think that nothing
00:16:39fundamentally new is actually happening,
00:16:42it's the home stretch
00:16:46to the American elections, to the midterm elections in
00:16:49Congress, and so to speak,
00:16:52Trump is trying to somehow save the situation, well, at least
00:16:56to keep those rednecks you mentioned
00:16:59with him, to keep them in the core of his
00:17:02electorate, and in principle, in such
00:17:05situations, he doesn't care what others think of him, including
00:17:08Ukraine. Zelensky, well, not that he got caught
00:17:12red-handed, but just a very convenient target
00:17:15for such hatred, a usual target for Trump,
00:17:19and actually, well,
00:17:22he needed to emotionally cover up such
00:17:26a position, well, which you rightly
00:17:29called cynical, but it's, well,
00:17:32scandalous actually, so here's
00:17:35the situation. in political communication, and what
00:17:38is called on the ground, well, unfortunately, we saw the situation,
00:17:42our negotiating group prematurely left
00:17:46the negotiating platform, well, that means that
00:17:49they failed to agree and there is no hope in the near future. Mr.
00:17:53Maksym, but there are Republicans who,
00:17:56healthy Republicans, so to speak, who
00:18:00say the following: Vladimir Putin is a butcher, a butcher of his own people,
00:18:04he is a butcher of good people of Ukraine, he will never be our
00:18:07friend, so the president is doing everything in his
00:18:11power to lower diesel fuel prices, but do you know what will actually
00:18:14lower diesel fuel prices? The end of the war in Iran, this is
00:18:18a Republican, Senator John Kennedy,
00:18:22and a number of Republicans actually criticized what Trump
00:18:25awarded, said, and did, but also in addition,
00:18:29they registered a bill with a specific
00:18:32procedure for passage, so that it would pass the committee faster, which, which...
00:18:35named after Reagan, which
00:18:37actually should make impossible
00:18:40this sale of moral and political foundations of America
00:18:43in exchange for diesel, which America does not even need.
00:18:47In short, is there a critical mass of those
00:18:50adequate Republicans who can somehow influence
00:18:54Trump, or does anyone else have influence on
00:18:58Trump? Well, this is, by
00:19:01the way, the next question. The first question is, is
00:19:04there a need for Trump, or does
00:19:08Trump actually decide anything? I am not
00:19:11an expert in diesel and in, so
00:19:14to speak, these trade relations, sanctions, but from what
00:19:18I read from people who seem to understand it, then
00:19:21indeed, well, the situation
00:19:24is not worth a rotten egg,
00:19:27indeed, it just looks like an information
00:19:30campaign and hopes that
00:19:33before the elections, before the decisions of these
00:19:36rednecks. on the ballots, and the elections have actually
00:19:39already begun, certain procedures have begun,
00:19:43that this factual deception will not be
00:19:46revealed, well, that cheap diesel will not come from
00:19:50Russia, it is not needed and it will not lower
00:19:53prices, while this whole story
00:19:56is unfolding, then some part
00:20:00will believe Trump, but you rightly
00:20:03pointed out that in the Republican camp,
00:20:06the Republican... well, fewer and fewer people want to deal with such
00:20:10cheap tricks, and therefore in this Republican
00:20:13camp discrepancies arise,
00:20:17well, such statements,
00:20:21the names quoted are symptomatic, but I would also draw
00:20:24attention to the speech of Marco Rubio, which
00:20:28he made in Athens near
00:20:31the Acropolis, a very programmatic speech. Most likely,
00:20:35we have a split in the camp of not just
00:20:39Republicans, in the camp of this MAGA group,
00:20:42around Trump, and there Trump is already, so to
00:20:46speak, a lame duck, and...
00:20:50a new political course and obviously
00:20:53some serious agreements we can
00:20:56already associate with some successors of Trump.
00:20:59Maksym, our colleague Ostap Yarysh is helping
00:21:03us here, because he monitors, he is in America, so,
00:21:06he monitors what the information space lives by, he says,
00:21:09what he literally says, now in the American
00:21:12information space, MAGA conservatives are actively spreading
00:21:15the thesis, Zelensky deliberately continues to hit
00:21:18oil refineries, in order to... set up Trump before
00:21:21the midterm elections and help the Democrats.
00:21:25Zelensky is trying to harm Trump before the midterm
00:21:28elections. This is what both bloggers and Fox News
00:21:32sing about, and here he quotes a large number of those who spread
00:21:35this information, that
00:21:38it was quite obvious that
00:21:42having started a conversation about not hitting my friend
00:21:45Putin's Russian oil refineries, what would this be, that this would develop as
00:21:49an information. part of Donald Trump's
00:21:53election campaign, because he actually says, I am part of the election campaign, vote for
00:21:57Republicans in every state, as if I am at the top of the list, this is
00:22:00literally what he said, and it was obvious
00:22:03that it would be spun that way, then the
00:22:06logical question arises, why did Ukraine
00:22:09itself initiate its visit to
00:22:12Miami, at this very time, why did it also
00:22:15bring in European partners,
00:22:19knowing that... it would definitely expose itself to such
00:22:21a scandalous story, maybe they did not
00:22:25expect that it would be about Russian diesel through
00:22:28specific banks and accounts, it is still unknown who will profit
00:22:32from this, but if we knew that this
00:22:35was a dangerous zone, and we needed to
00:22:39just stay home for 3.5 weeks, but
00:22:42if it already happened, then say, listen, Donald Trump
00:22:46is violating your 2022 law, let the
00:22:50Americans figure it out themselves, what's with that
00:22:53diesel, and not comment on the weak or
00:22:56strong steps of Donald Trump, who behaves very inadequately
00:22:59and childishly in the face of any criticism. Why did we
00:23:03ourselves initiate this
00:23:05setup?
00:23:08Well, here I would divide this setup into two,
00:23:11two components, to express whether it's weak
00:23:15or strong, especially regarding Trump, it was definitely not
00:23:19worth it. I would generally draw attention to
00:23:22the fact that our recent, well, some such
00:23:26diplomatic blunders and problems
00:23:28created, well, in this case with Trump's
00:23:32administration, since a weak Trump means a weak
00:23:36Rubio and everyone else around him, the problem
00:23:39with South Korea, no matter how they treat their
00:23:43president, no matter what they suspect him of, but we are
00:23:47creating problems for ourselves out of nowhere. simply
00:23:50with careless statements, well, this is obviously
00:23:53unacceptable, but that's one story, another story is,
00:23:57why did they go and why, well,
00:24:01couldn't they just wait, it seems to me
00:24:04that they simply could not just
00:24:08calmly wait, I will
00:24:10explain my point of view, the point is that
00:24:13Ukraine is indeed in a very difficult situation
00:24:17with Russian attacks and... with
00:24:20the probable reduction
00:24:23of assistance, and with an unfavorable
00:24:26conjuncture, both geopolitical, geo-economic, and so
00:24:29on, and therefore, of course, if there was
00:24:33some chance that we would be able to
00:24:37limit, well, at least Russian strikes on our energy sector
00:24:40for the upcoming winter, if such an assumption existed,
00:24:43then it was probably a justified risk
00:24:47to try to negotiate,
00:24:50there were grounds for expecting such an agreement,
00:24:54I think, after all, and
00:24:58well, about now, so to speak, it would take
00:25:01a long time to analyze
00:25:04the signs, but I think
00:25:07that our negotiators went there
00:25:10with the expectation that
00:25:13Putin and Trump could
00:25:17agree on this well, actually
00:25:20refraining from our strikes on their oil refineries,
00:25:24and their strikes on our energy sector, I think such an assumption
00:25:27existed, and it actually lay
00:25:31at the heart of this decision, well, Budanov
00:25:34actually went, it's not just some consultations
00:25:37there of a group, so to speak, of politicians
00:25:40of a level that
00:25:44is not responsible for anything, that is, it was expected that some
00:25:47decisions would be made, the Russians always played
00:25:50their partners, in this case the Americans,
00:25:53but, well, there is a suspicion, in connection with the fact
00:25:56that that tanker has already left long ago and is now triumphantly
00:26:00going to Florida and, so to speak, Trump will announce a great
00:26:04victory, so maybe this game
00:26:08was planned and played out
00:26:11earlier, and we just didn't
00:26:15know about it,
00:26:17well, as the President said, it was a shield, yes,
00:26:21our President, again, in an interview with
00:26:23ABC News, said that Ukraine is ready to hold
00:26:27elections, because Trump said that it's time for Ukraine
00:26:31to elect a new president. So we have an answer from our President
00:26:35that Ukraine is ready to hold elections if Russian dictator
00:26:38Vladimir Putin agrees to a 60-day
00:26:41ceasefire.
00:26:45Are we really ready for that, to organize elections in 60
00:26:49days? And is this, is
00:26:52this again a good answer
00:26:54to Trump?
00:26:57Well, I think it's a good answer at least, but
00:27:01I assume. that such a scenario is allowed on
00:27:05Bankova Street, the fact is that when
00:27:09Zelensky quarrels with Trump, or when Trump quarrels with
00:27:12Zelensky, the rating of our president sharply
00:27:15increases, this has already been shown by previous stages
00:27:18of this epic, so
00:27:21in this situation, of course, it is beneficial
00:27:25for the current Ukrainian government to hold presidential elections,
00:27:28so that it would be, so to speak, our answer to Chamberlain, and...
00:27:32our block of trust to the president who defends
00:27:36national interests, this is what political strategists, Mr. Maksym, call rallying
00:27:39around the flag, and this effect, but
00:27:42the price, but the price, look, the Wall Street Journal writes that
00:27:46since the times, today it writes, since the times
00:27:49of the quarrel in the Oval Office the relations between Trump and Zelensky
00:27:53are at their worst, at their lowest level, this
00:27:57is the price, the Wall Street Journal writes about it, and there is one more small
00:28:00clarification to what you said. Many people
00:28:04were concerned about the tanker that left St. Petersburg on
00:28:07September 23, they thought that it was a cunning
00:28:11deception, and they agreed on diesel, and this was just
00:28:14legalized, no, now analysts say that
00:28:17this is, no, not that cargo, this is not
00:28:21diesel, completely different things, carbide is being transported, there
00:28:24this is already the analysts
00:28:26themselves, who were the first to raise the alarm about this,
00:28:30namely Michel. Wiese Bockman
00:28:33says that they deleted this post, because
00:28:36they found out that a completely different cargo is going, so the conspiracy did not
00:28:40work out, but at the same time, this
00:28:44result has not
00:28:47disappeared, how will we get out of all this
00:28:49after the elections?
00:28:54After the elections, who knows,
00:28:57honestly, it's very difficult to model the situation even
00:29:00of the elections themselves yet.
00:29:03Not to mention the post-election situation,
00:29:06I think that, starting, so to speak,
00:29:10to model, I think that in the case,
00:29:14if Ukraine really starts
00:29:17this election process, in one
00:29:21form or another, then,
00:29:24Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, obviously must
00:29:27somehow play along with this scenario, and
00:29:31I, so to speak... I don't imagine that
00:29:34this scenario would develop, that the elections would really
00:29:37be prepared and held in the conditions in which Ukraine
00:29:41is currently in, with these constant
00:29:43shelling, well, perhaps
00:29:47even without any
00:29:50de-escalation at the front, that is, in this situation,
00:29:53Ukraine at any moment, when it
00:29:56is politically and tactically beneficial for us, at
00:30:00any moment can say that...
00:30:03uh, no, you are not letting us hold elections, and then the United
00:30:06States and Russia will be to blame
00:30:09for the failure of the elections. Well, this is such a game,
00:30:12which, honestly, so far looks quite
00:30:15hypothetical, uh, but, a more
00:30:19urgent problem is
00:30:22what to do now with our, so to speak,
00:30:25security, with our this track
00:30:28of peace negotiations, when oh, so,
00:30:31demonstrably. and they fundamentally broke
00:30:34the pots, well, now obviously we need to bet on
00:30:38this internal political conflict in the United States, on
00:30:41the split in the Republican camp.
