00:00:00short term, an additional 3 million tons, almost
00:00:035 million in total, this is the volume of diesel fuel
00:00:07that Russia will supply to American and global markets,
00:00:11Donald Trump announced this on October 9 in his
00:00:14social media. Thanks to our full control over the Strait of
00:00:18Hormuz and this great news regarding Russian energy resources,
00:00:22diesel prices for Americans and indeed worldwide
00:00:25will fall to record low levels, and this will happen
00:00:29quickly. According to Trump, lower prices for citizens
00:00:33are his top priority. On the same day, the US Treasury issued a general
00:00:36license for operations with Russian fuel, its import, as
00:00:40well as the provision of services for sea transportation, which were banned
00:00:43since March 2022.
00:00:46року.
00:00:50While Trump and Putin negotiated by phone, Zelensky hosted
00:00:53delegates from Congress in Kyiv, and negotiations in the
00:00:57Ukraine-Europe-US format continued in Miami.
00:01:00These ended prematurely, there will be no second day, - reported
00:01:04a Radio Svoboda journalist. The President of Ukraine stated in an interview with Axios
00:01:07that Washington used peace talks
00:01:10as a cover for a deal with Russia.
00:01:14In any case, it all goes to war against people,
00:01:18against Ukraine, against all of us. I
00:01:21believe that our team
00:01:24is simply being used as a cover, and this
00:01:28is certainly unfair, it's... Definitely not partner-like, and
00:01:31this, in my opinion, is a weak decision.
00:01:35Axios also provides details of the meeting in Miami. Thus, a Ukrainian
00:01:38official told the publication that Americans threatened to stop
00:01:42intelligence sharing if Ukraine continued to strike
00:01:46Russian oil refineries. And a US representative added: Trump wants
00:01:49this to be a unilateral act, as he does not consider attacks on
00:01:53oil refineries to be equivalent to strikes on
00:01:56Ukrainian energy infrastructure. The reaction of the UK government, a country
00:02:00participating in the meeting in Miami, was also quite
00:02:03clear. We will continue to work closely
00:02:06with international partners to provide
00:02:09Ukraine with the military and financial support it needs for
00:02:12self-defense. We will also maintain pressure on Russia through
00:02:15the toughest sanctions regime ever
00:02:19applied by the United Kingdom. Fuel prices are not just another
00:02:23attempt by Trump to stop his declining rating and push
00:02:26Republicans into Congress during the midterm elections, but
00:02:30hope for further big deals with Putin, according to
00:02:33political scientist, head of the analytical center Business Capital, Vadym
00:02:37Denysenko, because 5 million tons is a pittance,
00:02:40only a month of US
00:02:42consumption.
00:02:47Why did Washington, as the largest diesel exporter, decide to buy
00:02:50it in such almost imperceptible portions, because
00:02:54Ukraine, which currently lacks it itself, - explained
00:02:58journalist Vitaliy Portnikov in his YouTube channel.
00:03:02According to him, Putin received a complete and obvious diplomatic
00:03:05victory over Trump, the deal itself is a bribe for the Kremlin leader.
00:03:09In order for the Russian president to
00:03:13quickly agree to sell foreign assets to the
00:03:16Lukoil company to representatives close to
00:03:20Trump's family and the closest entourage of the American
00:03:24president. In fact, we are witnessing the
00:03:28search for ways to conclude that deal, and
00:03:32not a peaceful process. Portnikov predicts
00:03:35that a jump in diesel prices is unlikely to save Trump from defeat in
00:03:39the elections, and Ukraine will continue to strike Russian oil refineries.
00:03:42Therefore, if Washington needs diesel, they should negotiate
00:03:46an energy truce. Meanwhile, the Financial
00:03:49Times published the reaction of a Ukrainian official to
00:03:53the agreement. I quote: "We will burn their
00:03:56oil refineries." Yulia Honko, glory.
00:04:00Over the past few days, there have been many statements and
00:04:04decisions of the
00:04:07US presidential administration. Trump talked a lot
00:04:10about an energy truce, about
00:04:14what Putin wants, and how
00:04:17the United States of America is ready to support
00:04:21the aspirations of the Kremlin
00:04:24dictator in order to give, as
00:04:28Trump said, a lot of cheap oil to the world.
00:04:31We have Mykhailo Honchar, President of the
00:04:34Center for Globalistics Strategy 21, on the line. He
00:04:37knows exactly what Trump wants, or what
00:04:41is true, what is manipulation by
00:04:44the President of the United States of America, Mr. Mykhailo, we
00:04:58look, the situation... how Trump indeed clings
00:05:02to this agreement like a straw, but the realities
00:05:06are completely different, I
00:05:08don't want to tell you that
00:05:11the United States is the largest producer of petroleum
00:05:15products and diesel,
00:05:19exporter and so on, and
00:05:22therefore, in principle, all these things are not needed
00:05:26by the United States, but,
00:05:29the situation looks like it is indeed about
00:05:33a serious deal
00:05:35on the foreign assets of the Luk Oil company, and we saw these
00:05:39publications that show how
00:05:42Trump's inner circle wants to make money
00:05:45from this, and therefore this is a kind of fixed
00:05:49idea, but that's not all. For
00:05:52Putin, from my point of view, the initiator
00:05:56of all these diesel affairs,
00:05:59ah, was precisely the Kremlin, because it is painful for him,
00:06:03all these blows of Ukrainian
00:06:06drones on oil refining facilities,
00:06:10and the option of, so to speak, pressing
00:06:14Ukraine, well, Putin does not have, well, except,
00:06:18of course, by military means, but there
00:06:21is no progress, so from here,
00:06:25understanding Trump's greed and
00:06:28his Putinophilia,
00:06:31well, perhaps along the track of Dmitriev Vitkov, well,
00:06:35a certain request was made
00:06:38that the White House influence
00:06:42Kyiv's behavior, and that is what
00:06:45we are currently observing, in fact, and
00:06:49moreover, in an increasingly harsh form, it is no
00:06:52longer so much about an energy truce, as it can be
00:06:56understood, but about the fact that Ukraine should practically unilaterally
00:06:59stop strikes on Russian
00:07:03oil refineries, and that's a completely different
00:07:07thing. And I think that behind all this, we are still
00:07:10behind this deal around the foreign assets of Lukoil, where
00:07:14it's approximately about 20-22 billion
00:07:17dollars, the total value of assets, and if
00:07:20they are currently under sanctions, then they cost
00:07:24less, they can be obtained at a low price,
00:07:27then all this is removed from sanctions, because it's a different
00:07:31owner, and accordingly, everything starts working
00:07:34further and everyone gets good profits not once in
00:07:38the form of a bonus, but, so to speak, systematically for many years. Mr.
00:07:41Mykhailo, what are the profits, what are we talking about, what amounts are we talking about and who
00:07:45specifically will receive these profits, so that we can talk concretely with you.
00:07:49Well, look, in essence, we are talking about
00:07:52those names that are unknown to us, but these are
00:07:55business partners of both the sons and Steve
00:07:59Vitkov himself, and also Jared Kushner,
00:08:02and there is a rather convoluted scheme, that is, everything is done in such a way
00:08:06that this consortium of interested
00:08:09parties, where Arab sheikhs are also present,
00:08:12well, created the appearance that all this is such an independent
00:08:16deal, where simply, uh, Vitkov and
00:08:19Kushner, well, played, played the role of such
00:08:22communicators, for the sake of peace, mhm, and
00:08:25prosperity, and behind the wrapper
00:08:29of this multinational consortium
00:08:32will practically stand the interests of precisely this
00:08:36kind of mafia-like, in essence,
00:08:39Trump's clan, and there is a lot of money, because... you say, there
00:08:43are many involved, this means that there are some very large assets hidden
00:08:46behind it, enough for everyone, well, well,
00:08:50of course, of course, that's why it's taking so long,
00:08:53and even more so Lukoil is that Russian company that
00:08:56has a whole range of assets abroad, unlike other
00:08:59Russian companies that operated mainly in Russia, because Russia
00:09:03also has a lot of oil and so on, and Lukoil, its strategy there
00:09:07since ancient times, as it is called, was not only to
00:09:10develop fields in
00:09:12Russia or, say, in the northern sector of the Caspian,
00:09:16but also to go to the Middle
00:09:19East, where there are also, especially in Iraq,
00:09:23considerable production assets
00:09:26of Lukoil. Thus, from here, it is quite
00:09:30clear the interest of Arab sheikhs from the same
00:09:33Emirates, who are interested, because these assets
00:09:37are nearby, as they say, well, and at the same time they disguise,
00:09:41so to speak, this corruption. deal, well, under the guise
00:09:44of such an international
00:09:46agreement,
00:09:49where many interested parties, and everything will simply
00:09:52work, further saturate the oil market,
00:09:56prices will fall, and so on and so forth. By the way, by the way, we
00:10:00have a synchronized Donald Trump, the president of the United
00:10:03States of America, about the fact that Putin supposedly really wants the end of the war
00:10:07against Ukraine and is ready to give the world a lot of cheap oil,
00:10:10let's listen.
00:10:15He would like to reach an agreement, President Putin is very eager
00:10:18to settle, and look, he is releasing large volumes of oil
00:10:22into the world market, which is good, and by the way, at a very low
00:10:25price,
00:10:29can Putin now give a lot of oil, cheap oil
00:10:32to the world, as Trump says, well, considering the blows he has already
00:10:36received from the Ukrainian defense forces on
00:10:39oil refineries. Well, if we are talking about crude oil,
00:10:42then Putin, thanks to such non-sanctions, is
00:10:46supplying oil to the world market, however,
00:10:49not cheap oil in fact,
00:10:52and in fact, the situation looks
00:10:55like this, if we return to the topic of diesel, that in
00:10:58essence,
00:11:00the actions of the Ukrainian defense forces, they are working
00:11:04in favor of American
00:11:06companies that refine
00:11:09oil, and thanks to the actions of the Ukrainian defense
00:11:13forces, the market niche
00:11:16of Russian diesel, which was on the European
00:11:19market, or, for example, in Brazil, which was
00:11:23perhaps the largest importer of Russian diesel, American
00:11:27producers came there. Uh-huh.
00:11:29And this, by the way, is what our diplomacy
00:11:32underestimates, when it needs to show that large
00:11:36American companies have a considerable
00:11:39profit from the strikes of the Ukrainian
00:11:42defense forces and the destruction of Russian
00:11:46oil refining. For some reason, we somehow
00:11:49bypass this
00:11:51by silence, we need to talk about it. From this
00:11:55point of view, of course, when Trump talks
00:11:59about cheap Russian oil, well, that's populism,
00:12:02in fact, the situation with these oil
00:12:06prices suits American oil companies very well,
00:12:10in fact, but it does not suit
00:12:13Trump due to the high prices at
00:12:16gas stations,
00:12:19but this is also a problem and a consequence
00:12:22of that badly
00:12:25conducted military campaign against Iran, well, where
00:12:29of course, Trump won in
00:12:31his imagination, but in fact, this is what
00:12:34keeps prices for oil and accordingly for
00:12:38refined products at high levels, and that is what
00:12:41prevents Trump and Republicans or
00:12:44Trumpists, well, at least from maintaining their current
00:12:48positions after the midterm elections
00:12:51on November 3, so we will hear a lot
00:12:55of nonsense from Trump, but one way or another, his main
00:12:59track, which fits into
00:13:02the canon, who is to blame, Biden,
00:13:05Ukraine, Europeans, so now
00:13:08Ukraine has come into the spotlight so powerfully,
00:13:11Zelensky, who spoils everything, who Putin
00:13:15wants peace, and Zelensky wants to fight further and so on,
00:13:19so this pressure must be endured, it is possible to strike
00:13:23not only at oil refineries. And the brilliant Ukrainian defense
00:13:26forces struck, for example, at the Samara
00:13:30site, which plays a fundamental role in
00:13:32Russia's pipeline system, and actually,
00:13:36from where oil is supplied to a number
00:13:38of oil
00:13:41refineries, no oil at the input, no diesel at the
00:13:44output, therefore the situation
00:13:48is not hopeless, especially under circumstances when we are
00:13:51being imposed an absolutely asymmetrical
00:13:55solution in favor of Russia, even given the fact that
00:13:59during this day, there has already been a transformation
00:14:02of Trump's position to a more rigid
00:14:05approach, that Ukraine must practically unilaterally
00:14:09cease, or there is such a strange symmetry,
00:14:13that the parties do not strike each other's oil refining
00:14:16capacities, well, we have different oil refining capacities, Russia
00:14:19simply destroyed what we had there a year ago with
00:14:23a little bit working in Kremenchuk.
00:14:25It has not been working for a long time, so again, all this
00:14:28shows such formulations that these are, so to speak,
00:14:32telegrams coming from the Kremlin, whether they come directly or
00:14:35through the track, most likely,
00:14:39of Vitkov and Dmitriev, well,
00:14:43this all shows it. Well, since Trump is not
00:14:46distinguished by
00:14:49a desire to delve into any details, he
00:14:53is never interested in this, he has his own idea of what
00:14:56the world is, how it is structured, oil
00:15:00in particular, well, that's why we are observing this picture, such
00:15:03a result, Mr. Mykhailo, thank you, if we summarize
00:15:07this whole story, if possible, in one minute, then Ukraine should
00:15:10continue to stick to its positions, inflict the strikes that Ukraine
00:15:14inflicts, we have support from
00:15:17the European Union, at least in words,
00:15:20such diplomatic support, because
00:15:24we see. and there is the lifting of sanctions from the United
00:15:27States of America, that is, they will somehow make Ukraine
00:15:31a scapegoat, Zelensky, Kyiv should continue
00:15:35to stick to those positions? as
00:15:38they are, inflict those blows,
00:15:40inflict those
00:15:43blows, from my point of view, yes,
00:15:46of course, because otherwise we will nullify
00:15:49the efforts of the Ukrainian defense forces, give the enemy the opportunity
00:15:52to partially, at least, recover, and what else
00:15:56the Kremlin wants, by the way, and what
00:15:59else has not been voiced, is that there should
00:16:03be reviewed or found options from the White House for
00:16:06obtaining damaged
00:16:10equipment at the bottom of oil refineries, including Lukoil's,
00:16:13which were purchased in the United States and cannot
00:16:17be replaced with anything, that is, in fact, we are now seeing only
00:16:21the tip of the iceberg, and there may be other
00:16:24deals. Thank you for your comments, this was Mykhailo
00:16:27Honchar, President of the Center for Globalistics
00:16:41talk about the situation directly in Poland.
00:16:4576 people were detained there
00:16:47on October 10 in connection with threats of attacks on
00:16:51schools, which were announced online, as I say in quotation marks,
00:16:54"Bloody Friday," due to threats
00:16:57of violence in several districts, schools were closed on Friday,
00:17:00in others, police surveillance was increased.
00:17:04Such security measures were introduced after two attacks on
00:17:07educational institutions, which resulted in
00:17:11the death of a school employee and the injury of 12 people. What
00:17:15is known about all this and are there signs of external
00:17:18influence on teenagers, see further in our
00:17:21material.
00:17:24On October 8, in the village of Mazovetsky Voivodeship, around 9 am,
00:17:28a 15-year-old teenager entered the institution where he had previously studied and
00:17:32attacked three employees with a knife. A 37-year-old
00:17:35cleaner died from her injuries. The attacker was detained, he
00:17:38has already been interrogated, the teenager's motives are currently unknown. The prosecution is collecting
00:17:42evidence and will transfer the materials to court. The police are checking
00:17:45information about a possible internet challenge. Over the past two
00:17:48days, three incidents have occurred in schools in the voivodeship. Cybercrime
00:17:52specialists are involved in the investigation. However, there is currently no official
00:17:55confirmation that the attack in the village of Leszcodole Novina was part of
00:17:59such a challenge. The country's prime minister reported
00:18:02at the meeting on October 8 that the teenager had a helmet with a video camera on his head, which
00:18:06may indicate an intention to film the murder in the country's schools.
00:18:10Security measures are being strengthened.
00:18:13We will monitor what is happening on the Internet, prevent such
00:18:17cases, patrol the areas around schools, and the police will enter
00:18:20school grounds starting today. And not to interfere, but to show
00:18:24that they are present, that they are monitoring the situation, and perhaps
00:18:27this will deter those who want to imitate
00:18:31the attackers. You know very well that various games, challenges, and
00:18:35similar online entertainment very often lead to
00:18:38some people starting to imitate others, and this
00:18:41violence is transferred from cyberspace, from this virtual
00:18:45unreal reality, gradually coming out onto the streets, coming to schools and
00:18:49homes.
00:18:51On October 9, in the Mazovian Voivodeship of Poland, five
00:18:55teenagers aged 13 to 15 were already detained
00:18:58for death threats on social networks, as well as the discovery of knives and
00:19:02pyrotechnics.
00:19:04Social networks and messengers also play a role.
00:19:08but chats in video games are also one way
00:19:11to recruit young people into radical groups, there, of course,
00:19:15it often smells of the Kremlin, just as most disinformation is also controlled
00:19:18by the Kremlin, but another reason is the unfolding disaster through
00:19:22social networks, which were supposed to foster connections, but in reality
00:19:25they cause loneliness and alienation among young people, and we
00:19:29see this very often: young people who have no one to talk to,
00:19:32start looking for their place on the Internet, some find
00:19:35joy in friends, others in
00:19:39radically minded groups. I remind you, the fatal incident that
00:19:42occurred in the village of Leshchodoli Navinakh on October 8 was preceded
00:19:46by others. On October 7, at the school complex in Ostrolenka,
00:19:49a 19-year-old youth attacked nine people with a knife. Among
00:19:52the injured were five students, two teachers, and two outsiders. In addition,
00:19:56according to law enforcement, the attacker had a backpack with
00:20:00a homemade explosive device. On the same day, in the city of Sirbc, police
00:20:03detained a 17-year-old teenager who shared with his peers that he planned to
00:20:07do something bad at school. The incident was avoided. On October 8, the Sejm
00:20:11adopted a law on amendments to the law on the provision of electronic services and some other
00:20:14laws. The new norms are intended to allow faster restriction of access to illegal
00:20:18content on the Internet, including materials calling for violence,
00:20:21hatred, and dangerous actions. Now the law will be sent to
00:20:25the Senate. Maria Chernyakhovska, glory. So,
00:20:28we will talk about the wave of threats of violence in Poland with our
00:20:32next guest, Lev Zakharchyshyn,
00:20:35diplomat, authorized director of the European Center
00:20:39of Solidarity for Polish-Ukrainian
00:20:50So, we want to talk about
00:20:54these two aspects, let's start with the attacks in Polish
00:20:57schools, do you think there are grounds to consider these
00:21:01threats of the so-called bloody Friday as part of a
00:21:04coordinated campaign?
00:21:08There are such grounds, and I know that the Polish services
00:21:12are considering these versions,
00:21:15this whole story, it has already been mentioned in your
00:21:19comments, has such a
00:21:21multi-layered
00:21:24effect. First, it is indeed the influence, the global
00:21:27influence of social networks, and these
00:21:30precedents, we know, violence in schools, they took place, we
00:21:34heard a lot about it in the United States
00:21:37of America. I would connect this with, though not
00:21:40directly, but it is that wave of violence in France,
00:21:43when schoolchildren, from protests
00:21:46regarding the level of provision
00:21:50of schools, moved to not schoolchildren, in fact, it was used as
00:21:53a pretext, then various destructive
00:21:56forces joined in, so here there is a combination
00:22:00of several factors, on the one hand a global problem,
00:22:03which grew out of social networks, on the other
00:22:06hand, Polish services are considering possible
00:22:09Russian influences, because
00:22:13it is a very convenient mechanism to use this global
00:22:16problem to already specifically in this case
00:22:20to destabilize the social
00:22:23situation, I can say that what I read
00:22:27in the comments, in the last few days, is
00:22:30probably the most discussed
00:22:33topic in Polish society, especially among
00:22:36parents, women, that is, people who are directly
00:22:39involved in schools, and obviously, this is already the
00:22:43effect, which, if such an influence was, and
00:22:46I will say...
00:22:49I am convinced that such an influence is exercised
00:22:53by Russian special services in one way or another,
00:22:55we are already seeing the achievement of this effect, that is, panic in society,
00:22:59anxiety, uncertainty,
00:23:02uncertainty, including in the actions of the authorities
00:23:06and so on and so forth, so the problem
00:23:09is not simple, although the Polish
00:23:13government clearly declares that
00:23:16it will take measures to...
00:23:20counteract these phenomena, in particular,
00:23:24this is a very important political moment, because
00:23:27on the eve the Polish government
00:23:30developed a bill that was
00:23:33supposed to strengthen control over such negative,
00:23:36let's say, influences in the Internet space, but
00:23:40the Polish president vetoed this law, motivating it
00:23:44by saying that it violates or may violate freedom
00:23:48of speech, and now we see how this story is already moving into
00:23:52the political sphere, now there will be a new attempt
00:23:55to make such changes to the legislation, let's see how
00:23:59it will develop also in the political sphere, and meanwhile,
00:24:02let's listen to what Polish Prime Minister
00:24:06Donald Tusk says about the situation around schools.
00:24:09Yesterday there was a special meeting with law enforcement, he stated that
00:24:13there are currently no grounds to believe that the recent incidents are part of
00:24:16a coordinated campaign aimed at intimidating society,
00:24:20let's listen to Tusk. We are not dealing with any
00:24:24large-scale, organized group of people, whether children
00:24:28or youth, that has a plan to create a sense of threat. Very
00:24:32often it is spontaneous behavior that arises mainly
00:24:35due to activity on the Internet. We have been noticing this
00:24:39over the past months, both in Poland and around the
00:24:42world. We are noticing an obsession with
00:24:44violence.
00:24:47There is also information. and new
00:24:50details have emerged about a possible assassination attempt on the Prime Minister and Minister
00:24:54of Defense of Poland, and Polish officials told
00:24:58about this, reports European Pravda, spokesman for the Minister
00:25:01Coordinator of Special Services Jacek Dobrzyński said that there is a
00:25:05high probability of these threats being carried out, and the spokesperson for the Minister
00:25:08of Internal Affairs and Administration, Karolina Galicka, noted that reports of a
00:25:12possible attack, an assassination attempt on Tusk
00:25:16and Kosiniak-Kamysz were sent through
00:25:20the Prime Minister's security service
00:25:23to the police. It arrived via email, I emphasize,
00:25:25at that moment, so
00:25:28can you, Mr. Lev, tell us about this
00:25:32information, and the likelihood of such a
00:25:36thing? What is known about the possible assassination
00:25:39attempt, and what could it be related to, and in your
00:25:42opinion, what is coordinating it, or is it, well, what
00:25:46versions are there? Well, first of all,
00:25:51there isn't much information yet, in principle, such
00:25:55precedents are usually not widely
00:25:58publicized by the authorities, well, through the mass
00:26:01media, there are certain security protocols, yes,
00:26:04but in this case, there was
00:26:08a comment from the government that a decision
00:26:12was made to inform the public
00:26:15about this incident, precisely, as they
00:26:18explain it, partly to avoid
00:26:22creating a wave of fake news or
00:26:26any other information that would
00:26:30create panic in society, because you perfectly understand, there's a
00:26:34series of attacks in schools, here's an assassination attempt on the Prime Minister, so all this
00:26:38mixes very well and creates an even greater effect
00:26:41of panic and uncertainty. As of today, it is known
00:26:44that there was indeed a person who found out
00:26:48about the fact that there is such a thing, that
00:26:52there is another person planning such an assassination attempt, and
00:26:55she decided to inform the state
00:26:59security service, and it, in turn, after assessing
00:27:02the risks, handed the case over to the police.
00:27:06Currently, this is, well, a question,
00:27:08as it were, there are no details yet, no
00:27:12details about what exactly, what motives there were,
00:27:15who was in charge, but again, going back to the
00:27:19previous topic, although Prime Minister Tusk said
00:27:22that there are no grounds yet to speak of
00:27:26a possible external influence on the situation, but again,
00:27:29I say, it doesn't necessarily have to be that Russia organized
00:27:32these attacks in schools
00:27:35or that Russian special services are the direct
00:27:39authors of this order,
00:27:42this terrorist act, this assassination attempt, but they very clearly
00:27:45track such situations and simply
00:27:48use these moments even if they are not
00:27:51the organizers, so in any
00:27:54case, I think that the Polish special services, they talk about it,
00:27:57they it's one of such
00:28:00highly probable versions that they will probably
00:28:04work on,
00:28:06and therefore, again, I say, this threat
00:28:10has not disappeared, that is, this war, which some
00:28:13Europeans think is in Ukraine, has long been in
00:28:16Europe. The Minister of Internal Affairs and
00:28:19Administration, Marcin Kierwiński, stated that the man
00:28:23who threatened Prime Minister Donald Tusk and planned an attack on
00:28:27him was detained by the police. He is approximately 60
00:28:30years old and was detained in Lower
00:28:33Silesia, and, as the minister says, the man who informed us about this
00:28:36provided accurate information about who could have committed such a heinous
00:28:40act, and this man who was detained comes from very
00:28:44radical groups and establishes very radical contacts on the internet with various
00:28:47individuals who use very hateful
00:28:50language. Well, Mr. Lev, very briefly, literally
00:28:53in a minute, can you say whether this
00:28:57is similar to what happened before the Great
00:29:01War in Ukraine? when there were constantly some moments
00:29:05when they threatened, when they talked about some mine threats,
00:29:09all these calls were made, is this similar to what is happening now in
00:29:12Poland? Well, this is the same mechanism, that is, the
00:29:16main goal is to increase
00:29:20the level of anxiety in society,
00:29:23uncertainty, and obviously, well, in our case, it was
00:29:26a slightly different mechanism, but in Poland we have observed over
00:29:30the past few years a significant...
00:29:33escalation or influence of far-right
00:29:36circles, that is, they are the instrument, the weapon, which
00:29:39is supposed to sow panic and fear in
00:29:42society. Thank you, Mr. Lev, for your conversation and for
00:29:46your comments. That was Lev Zakharchyshyn, diplomat, authorized
00:29:49representative of the European Solidarity Center for Polish-Ukrainian
00:29:53solidarity. We talked with him about the wave of threats and
00:29:57violence in Poland, about whether there is a Russian trace there
00:30:00and the consequences that all this may have for
00:30:04the society
