00:00:00therefore such large political issues need to be discussed
00:00:03in a large group directly, I think
00:00:07that this large working group will continue its
00:00:10meetings, and
00:00:13taking into account all these challenges, the parliament will be ready
00:00:16to update the legislation, by the way, excuse me, Ms.
00:00:20Olena, excuse me, we have literally 10 seconds,
00:00:23finally I want to ask you a very short briefing question:
00:00:26elections in 26th or 20... seventh
00:00:30year, for example, online real,
00:00:33yes or no? Uh, there is very
00:00:37low trust of Ukrainian society in online elections. This
00:00:40trust is somewhere around 3-4%,
00:00:44no more, so where there is no trust in society, we cannot
00:00:47recommend elections in such a way. I understand. Olena
00:00:51Shuliak, People's Deputy, Servant of the People faction, was on Espresso TV,
00:00:55and whether it will be possible to agree on an energy truce, or
00:00:58will there be elections? in Ukraine in 2026 or 2027
00:01:21the situation, quite strange, that has developed in American-Ukrainian
00:01:24relations, and relations, and we will analyze the behavior
00:01:28of the American president and what steps he can take,
00:01:32but of course, before that, in the center of attention is the situation with
00:01:35water supply in Kyiv. Watch us
00:01:44Espresso TV we will again
00:01:47understand how today's
00:02:17front-line Kherson region was handed over by Ivano-Frankivsk. Due to
00:02:21constant Russian shelling, the Beryslav community was
00:02:24forced to relocate its schools to Kryvyi Rih.
00:02:28Now children have to overcome tens of kilometers to
00:02:31lessons. At the Frankivsk Lyceum, they say
00:02:34the decision to donate the bus was made without hesitation, because
00:02:38today the need for it in the front-line community
00:02:41is much greater. The bus, which
00:02:44was purchased in its time back
00:02:47in 2017 with the participation
00:02:51of our city community,
00:02:54Mr. Chairman and our
00:02:56parents. After that, when the full-scale
00:03:00war began, our bus
00:03:03was not very active due to the lack of
00:03:06drivers, but in agreement with the mayor, with our
00:03:10authorities, we decided to help our
00:03:13brothers in the Beryslav community. For
00:03:17the Beryslav community, school transport is one of the key
00:03:20needs, due to the destruction of infrastructure and
00:03:23danger, local residents cannot return
00:03:26home. All our children were forced to leave their
00:03:30homes, and the largest number of our children,
00:03:34since the buildings are destroyed, since there is no city, the school
00:03:37is damaged and it is impossible to live there, came to
00:03:40the nearest city to us, the city of Kryvyi Rih,
00:03:44transporting our children plays a key
00:03:47role, so the bus is an extremely great help, we
00:03:50are sincerely grateful for this, our children will be able to go to school
00:03:54in the morning and return home in the evening,
00:03:57safely, for some students the road to
00:04:01school reaches 50
00:04:04km, children leave before dawn, after
00:04:07classes and clubs return home. Education
00:04:11continues even during air raids, in school
00:04:14shelters. After two years of distance learning, teachers
00:04:18talk about educational losses and lack of live communication, and
00:04:21some students actually got the opportunity to sit at their desks every day
00:04:25with their classmates for the first time. Currently, the community of the city
00:04:29of Ivano-Frankivsk is handing over a Bohdan bus,
00:04:32which will be able to transport children from
00:04:34the Beryslav community to study in Kryvyi Rih.
00:04:37There are about 330 such
00:04:40children. The city council emphasizes that helping
00:04:44children from front-line Kherson region is another
00:04:47way to support the community, which lives under Russian
00:04:50attacks every day, and at the same time support Ukrainian soldiers
00:04:54who defend this region. It is there in Kherson region and in
00:04:58this region that our
00:05:01102nd brigade named after Dmytro Vitovsky is located, which protects this region, so this is
00:05:04a double aid, we help both our
00:05:08military unit and the civilian population to survive in these
00:05:11conditions. They say that supporting front-line communities
00:05:15today is a common cause, because the war has changed their
00:05:18lives, but it should not take away children's right to
00:05:21childhood and education.
00:05:33After the truce announced by Trump, Russians attacked
00:05:36six energy facilities in Ukraine, Zelensky said. Kyiv
00:05:40Vodokanal has already warned that if electricity disappears, water will also
00:05:44disappear. What is the situation with electricity in the capital,
00:05:47we will hear firsthand.
00:05:48Will EU and
00:05:51NATO partners provide strong support if Trump finally turns
00:05:55away from Kyiv. Live broadcast from
00:05:58the Warsaw Security Forum by our host Oleg
00:06:02Manchera.
00:06:04American roller coaster for Ukrainian diplomacy? What to expect from
00:06:08Trump's statements regarding Zelensky and where do talks about
00:06:11an energy truce lead? This complex knot
00:06:14will be untangled with Ukraine's ex-ambassador to the USA Valeriy Chaly.
00:06:38analyze all the most important events of this day. Well,
00:06:41the news is quite unsettling, the situation is alarming,
00:06:44especially when we talk about Kyiv and
00:06:47water supply, a warning was received from Kyiv
00:06:51Vodokanal that if there is no electricity, there may be no
00:06:55water, at the same time
00:06:57good news was received, well, relatively good,
00:07:00so the sewage system will work, and at the same time
00:07:04a conversation has already taken place between the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky and the Ukrainian
00:07:08negotiating group, which communicated with American
00:07:26should make an effort to help solve
00:07:29Kyiv's utility problems. Klitschko,
00:07:33Kyiv City Military Administration, Cabinet of Ministers, or
00:07:37President's Office. The situation is extremely
00:07:40difficult, the situation is alarming. The situation may be
00:07:43critical, so we need to involve
00:07:46additional capacities in order to
00:07:49get through this autumn, not to mention
00:07:53winter. Well, and now I invite our
00:07:57special correspondent of the TV channel
00:08:00Kateryna Halka to our broadcast. We will talk
00:08:04about the situation in Kyiv, how we
00:08:13comes from Kyiv, from different districts. Tonight
00:08:16the enemy hit a
00:08:19multi-story building, but now the focus
00:08:22is on the situation with electricity and water.
00:08:25Share your insights and
00:08:35Kyiv with electricity supply and water supply
00:08:39remains difficult. From my experience, I can say
00:08:43that currently in my district of Holosiyivskyi,
00:08:46there are scheduled power outages,
00:08:49however, for example, a few days ago, when
00:08:52the enemy attacked specific energy facilities, the situation was difficult,
00:08:56it was necessary to introduce emergency
00:08:59shutdown schedules, essentially just turning off the power because there was none,
00:09:03yesterday as well, after the strike,
00:09:07there were problems with water supply, almost
00:09:10from evening until night. there was no water,
00:09:14it's difficult, of course, but in the morning I woke up, fortunately, water supply
00:09:17in my district, in my building, at least, was restored,
00:09:20however, the situation is uncontrolled, of course, and it's very
00:09:24difficult, difficult to plan anything, difficult to
00:09:27prepare for anything, so
00:09:31we live as we are, but I know from my own example, from
00:09:34the example of my acquaintances, and in general, on
00:09:37the example of all Kyiv residents, I think that everyone is preparing for a difficult winter and
00:09:41now for a difficult
00:09:43autumn. Everyone buys some means that can
00:09:47help them survive these difficult seasons, everyone still has
00:09:50power banks from previous seasons,
00:09:53they also massively buy EcoFlows, various
00:09:56charging stations in order to be at least somewhat
00:09:59independent, to work and survive in these difficult times, and
00:10:03also now, perhaps unlike
00:10:06last winter, everyone has also started thinking about
00:10:10how to
00:10:12prepare for water supply outages, because this is a much
00:10:16more difficult problem, because it's difficult to live without water,
00:10:19and now even on social networks
00:10:23I see that everyone is sharing their tips. We are talking about what you can buy,
00:10:27uh, buy various devices that help you at least
00:10:30wash your hands, wash dishes, and there are even such showers that
00:10:34help
00:10:36when there is no water supply, to use
00:10:39technical water and ordinary water from bottles to take
00:10:43a shower, well, and of course to simply wash your hands, wash
00:10:46food before eating, this has also become a problem now, because
00:10:50last winter there were no such extremely difficult conditions,
00:10:53and now, as we see... October, but the situation is getting worse,
00:10:57and many establishments work on
00:11:00generators, and apartment buildings
00:11:03have also adapted, buying, or bought earlier, or are buying
00:11:07generators now for the elevators to work
00:11:11and water pumps, but of course, it's all expensive, and
00:11:15it also has a certain lifespan, it needs fuel and so on,
00:11:18so this causes a lot of problems, and even if the situation is
00:11:22more or less under control now, we don't know when the next alert will begin, which
00:11:25object will be attacked next and whether we will have light and water
00:11:29even in an hour, Kateryna, points
00:11:32of invincibility, much has been said about them, they were
00:11:36demonstrated to us, we all hoped for them,
00:11:38in your opinion, will they
00:11:42perform their purpose in a proper way
00:11:45and for a sufficient number of Kyiv residents?
00:11:48Yes, Antin, yesterday
00:11:51I personally inspected several... at least five of them
00:11:54have already been deployed in the capital
00:11:58thanks to the efforts of the State Emergency Service, and the Kyiv City State
00:12:01Administration also promised to deploy theirs. They work
00:12:03in those areas where the situation is most difficult,
00:12:07particularly in the Obolon, Podil and Shevchenkivskyi districts.
00:12:10Obolon and Podil districts, there are such
00:12:14points of invincibility, as of yesterday there were no people
00:12:17there, or, as the State Emergency Service employees say, there were
00:12:21very few, about ten, but we understand that the
00:12:24situation... with electricity
00:12:27was not so critical yesterday, for example, yesterday in the capital it was about
00:12:3022° during the day, so accordingly, even if there was no electricity,
00:12:34people went out for a walk, however, today it has
00:12:37already gotten colder, it's colder, so of course I think that
00:12:41these points of invincibility will be more in demand among
00:12:45Kyiv residents and guests of the capital, and
00:12:47despite the fact that there are no people, they continue to work, they are there,
00:12:51there are State Emergency Service employees, there are police employees, there are...
00:12:55generators, so you can charge phones there,
00:12:59Starlinks also work there, accordingly, when there is no
00:13:01electricity, oh, there will be no connection either,
00:13:05you can get it there, you can connect to
00:13:09Wi-Fi for free, currently, unlike last winter, they don't offer tea or coffee
00:13:12to warm up, but they say that with the
00:13:16change in the situation, they will also change their services, they will expand them,
00:13:19they will also expand the number of these points of invincibility, if there is
00:13:23such a need, that is... but of course, if the situation is
00:13:26very critical, then many of them are needed, because one point
00:13:30of invincibility can accommodate about a hundred people, but I don't know for sure,
00:13:34this should be clarified with the State Emergency Service, and well, they can deliver
00:13:37chairs there, and in previous winters people even spent the night there, because
00:13:41it was very cold in their homes, and this was the only option
00:13:45to sleep in warmth, and it helped many
00:13:48people, and Kyiv residents, with whom we spoke, say that they will definitely
00:13:51use their services when there is a need.
00:13:55Thank you, Kateryna, Kateryna Halko, special correspondent
00:13:58of the TV channel about the situation in Kyiv and how much the so-called
00:14:02points of invincibility will be able to perform
00:14:05their assigned mission. I remind you, dear viewers, that
00:14:09in just a few minutes on Espresso TV there will be a live broadcast
00:14:12from the Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Ukraine, this is
00:14:16the diplomatic rank of the former Ambassador of Ukraine to
00:14:19the United States, Valeriy Chaly. Wait
00:14:22for... of course, an important interpretation of what is happening in
00:14:26American-Ukrainian relations. Well,
00:14:36to help solve utility problems in
00:14:39Kyiv? Klitschko, Kyiv City Military
00:14:42Administration, Cabinet of Ministers, President's Office. Join us, your opinion
00:14:46is important to us. Well, now let's discuss the
00:14:49Warsaw Security Forum. A central
00:14:52event, not just a central event.
00:14:57An event where a real
00:14:59strategy is discussed in order
00:15:03to stop possible Russian military provocations,
00:15:06particularly against the Baltic states and against Poland.
00:15:19there is the so-called perimeter of the security forum's agenda, I think many
00:15:22official statements were made, but the most important
00:15:25thing is what was said between the lines, right, what was said in
00:15:29the corridors, and we understand that Putin's aggression,
00:15:33particularly under sad circumstances, refers to
00:15:36the strange behavior of Donald Trump, so,
00:15:39Putin's aggression is becoming a possible new
00:15:42reality, what is the temperature now in this
00:15:46aspect in Warsaw? Please share. The temperature is actually hot, I can
00:15:49say, because all the events before that, before this, heated it up. We
00:15:53saw Russian provocations, we saw them of
00:15:57a hybrid nature and the heating up of this story with
00:16:00the Baltics, with the Baltic countries, and with the Suwalki corridor, we saw that
00:16:04just recently... Polish special services thwarted
00:16:09an assassination attempt on the life of Polish
00:16:11Prime Minister Tusk, Defense Minister Kosiniak-Kamysz,
00:16:15and therefore all these people were at the forum today, they opened it, and it is
00:16:18very symbolic that precisely after all these threats
00:16:22there were indeed enhanced security
00:16:26measures for entry to the forum,
00:16:30extraordinary measures were taken by the police,
00:16:33special services... like never before, obviously, but it is very
00:16:36important that these people were not afraid, they opened
00:16:39this forum, and it is also very important and symbolic that the first
00:16:43panel, the first discussion was opened by Polish
00:16:46Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Ukrainian President Volodymyr
00:16:50Zelensky, this is also against the background of these recent events, this is also very
00:16:53important and very symbolic, of course Volodymyr Zelensky was online, but
00:16:56nevertheless, in general I would say that the first half of the day
00:17:00passed completely under a Ukrainian focus, about...
00:17:04they talked a lot, about Ukraine they mentioned at every
00:17:07step, and about Ukraine, Ukraine was at the top
00:17:10of practically all statements, both the Polish Prime Minister's and
00:17:13the Norwegian one, which is no less important, because this forum this year
00:17:17was under the patronage of Norway, Norway was
00:17:20chosen as a partner country, and this is very important, because,
00:17:24for example, Norway, which has 1.3 trillion
00:17:27gold and foreign exchange reserves and in terms of its
00:17:31aid to Ukraine, it is approaching
00:17:34French aid in terms of GDP, if we mean, that is, Norway is a certain
00:17:38leader among the countries of Northern Europe, and they signed
00:17:41a strategic agreement with Poland, because today, just this evening,
00:17:45just before I joined you now, it was
00:17:49an agreement signed between the ministers of defense, on strategic
00:17:52partnership, there was talk of drones, there was talk of Ukraine, again, much was
00:17:55said, because before that, this
00:17:59northern axis, these Nordics, as we call them,
00:18:02from Britain to the Finns... the Baltics, somehow
00:18:05Poland always fell out of this context, right, that is, they were sort of
00:18:09present, but they were oriented either towards Washington,
00:18:13or towards some other parameters, here we see that
00:18:16Poland obviously is also moving towards
00:18:19this northern partnership,
00:18:22the Norwegian Prime Minister today very clearly said
00:18:25that the security of Europe is
00:18:29the security of the North Sea and the Baltic
00:18:32Sea and the Black Sea,
00:18:35in fact we... see
00:18:38that the Norwegian Prime Minister, you know,
00:18:41in a certain way, somewhat revived
00:18:45this idea, the Intermarium, the Polish idea, or
00:18:49in the Ukrainian interpretation of Vyacheslav Lypynsky's idea of
00:18:52the Baltic-Black Sea arc, only in this case it is no longer just
00:18:55a vision, it is no longer just an idea, but it is already
00:18:59absolutely fundamental things that have obvious
00:19:01resources, God grant that there are not only financial
00:19:05resources, we understand that the question can be
00:19:09formulated extremely harshly, it is about a military
00:19:12Russian provocation, in particular it is about a missile
00:19:16strike by drones on this or that military
00:19:19object of the alliance member states,
00:19:22and most likely this could be, this could be
00:19:25accompanied by an additional level of escalation, and we are talking
00:19:29specifically about Poland, about Estonia, Lithuania,
00:19:32Latvia, possibly about Finland, and
00:19:35Norwegian money is extremely important. Well, important, but in the medium term,
00:19:39the most important thing is the readiness
00:19:42of Norwegians, the readiness of Finns, the readiness of Poles,
00:19:46Czechs, and so on, to defend a NATO
00:19:49member country in the event of an unprovoked
00:19:52military attack by Russia. So, and what
00:19:55kind of moods did you feel,
00:19:58or what messages were voiced, what is the spirit, the
00:20:01spirit of Warsaw?
00:20:05The spirit can be divided into two sub-spirits, I'll tell you
00:20:08this, that is, if we are talking about military personnel, of whom there were
00:20:11many today from different countries, with NATO
00:20:14insignia and the like, with generals, with colonels, these
00:20:18people are absolutely, they are military, they are ready to carry out their order
00:20:22and they say it absolutely honestly in the corridors, and they do not hesitate, they
00:20:26understand what to do and protocols and the like.
00:20:30When we talk about politicians, here questions arise, and
00:20:33obviously the Warsaw Forum itself is very interesting in this regard, because...
00:20:37uh Poland, you know, the Warsaw Forum somewhat resembles, perhaps,
00:20:41the Munich Security Conference, but if the Munich
00:20:44Conference is more global for the world, then the Warsaw
00:20:48Forum is for Central Europe, for Eastern Europe, for Southern Europe,
00:20:52Northern Europe, yes, without, perhaps, the American component,
00:20:56although there were many Americans today, Kurt Volker was there,
00:20:59there were retired
00:21:02generals, well, there were many of them, but we understand that these are not the people
00:21:06who are making decisions now, and therefore this anxiety,
00:21:10of course, exists, because even if
00:21:13the general
00:21:14commander of NATO
00:21:18military forces in Europe said that they have
00:21:22F-35s, and this is their unconditional advantage over
00:21:26Russia, and you know, I then spoke with Serhiy Prytula in the corridors,
00:21:29he says, well, you
00:21:32understand, it's good that there are tanks, it's good that there are planes,
00:21:35but in modern warfare, even drones are not decisive,
00:21:39we Ukrainians have learned to fight and can teach others, the drone
00:21:43ecosystem already, do NATO countries have it today,
00:21:46well, obviously not, and one can...
00:21:50threaten, and now this theory of victory, which was presented
00:21:53at the Warsaw Security Forum, is actually
00:21:56threatening, it's warning, it's well, don't dare to get involved,
00:22:00because it will hurt you, but will Putin listen to this
00:22:04theory, will he cross the red line, well, that's the question
00:22:07actually, will these tanks and these
00:22:11imaginary F-35s stop him, because for him it's
00:22:14imaginary, he won't stop until he feels them in battle,
00:22:17he probably won't know if he will stop.
00:22:21This is an extremely important, though rhetorical question, will
00:22:24Putin stop? I think that Putin knows about the presence of
00:22:27F-35s, but Putin is counting on
00:22:31a lack of political will and courage, that is,
00:22:34his task is to maximally raise the level
00:22:37of escalation, because everyone understands what Putin is threatening with,
00:22:40and Putin talked about this at Valdai. Finally,
00:22:44Ukraine and more systematic and courageous
00:22:48assistance for us, in particular, when we
00:22:50talk about possible additional aviation for our
00:22:54needs and strengthening of air defense systems, but not
00:22:57somewhere sometime after Easter, but right now,
00:23:00in the near future.
00:23:03Well, obviously, these decisions must be made
00:23:06by national governments, so, in any case,
00:23:09at the level of statements, what was said
00:23:12at the Warsaw forum, everything is clearly okay, that is, there were statements
00:23:15that Ukraine urgently needs 300 Patriot missiles, yes, there was such a
00:23:20statement, there was talk that Ukraine needs further assistance
00:23:23with F-16
00:23:27missiles, which are currently most effective in
00:23:30shooting down jet drones, all this was there, but we understand that this
00:23:34is a forum, it is not a place where decisions are made, although many
00:23:37things are indeed decided, because besides open panels, open discussions,
00:23:41closed ones are held, and where
00:23:45they speak much more frankly, and by the way, where, for example, Ukrainian
00:23:49experts are present, Serhiy Prytula today was at a very interesting
00:23:52discussion and says that this
00:23:55understanding exists, but the speed
00:23:58levels of each country are different,
00:24:01and well, it seems that everyone is ready, but that's the
00:24:05trouble, this solidarity, you know, it's very good when
00:24:09rhetorical things are proclaimed, but when it comes to having
00:24:13to pull out of your pocket, everyone starts looking at each other and
00:24:17wondering, well, who's first, who's second? Although I must
00:24:20note that, unlike perhaps previous
00:24:23years, months, Poles have become very active,
00:24:27and it is truly felt, despite all the skepticism
00:24:30and the fact that not everything is always smooth in our relations
00:24:33and the like, Poles feel
00:24:36that trouble is very close,
00:24:39that is, this tension is felt, it exists both at the level
00:24:42of the military and at the level of politicians, and you know, it's very interesting not even what
00:24:46they say, but how they look when they say it. For example, today I saw
00:24:50Radosław Sikorski, well, I haven't seen him so tense
00:24:53in a long time, honestly, that is, they have an understanding that some
00:24:57storm is already at the doorstep, and that's why Poles are so active
00:25:00now. Thank you, Oleh, Oleh Manchera, journalist
00:25:03of Espreso TV channel, my colleague TV presenter, was in touch with me from Warsaw
00:25:07and analyzed the situation at today's
00:25:10Warsaw security forum. I remind you that we are conducting
00:25:14a poll, the enemy struck Kyiv today, and
00:25:17in the evening... drone fragments fell in six
00:25:21districts of Kyiv, yes, unfortunately, there are
00:25:24victims, and at the same time, there are big
00:25:27problems with electricity supply, so we are conducting a poll,
00:25:30I remind you, who should exert themselves to help
00:25:34solve utility problems in Kyiv?
00:25:37Klitschko, Kyiv City Military Administration,
00:25:40Cabinet of Ministers or the President's Office, join in, your
00:25:44vote is important to us, well, and as I announced
00:25:48earlier, now we have on the line the Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary
00:25:51Ambassador, Chairman of the Board of the Ukrainian Crisis
00:25:55Media Center, state political figure
00:25:58of Ukraine, Valeriy Chaly.
00:26:11of Ukraine heard
00:26:14representatives of his negotiation group, or
00:26:17the Ukrainian negotiation group, yes.
00:26:21Over the weekend, they met with Kushner and Steve
00:26:25Witkoff. Well, in any case, the Kremlin
00:26:28rejects any possible
00:26:31palliative solutions and they are insisting on the fulfillment of their
00:26:35ultimatum. Mr. Ambassador, I would ask
00:26:38you to assess the situation we are in and
00:26:41how harshly Donald Trump can play against
00:26:45us, supporting his, well, I don't want
00:26:48to say counterpart, but a certain already
00:26:52partner of Vladimir Putin. Your turn, Mr.
00:26:55Ambassador. Well, the situation, in
00:26:58principle, you all followed it.
00:27:02It was connected with the fact that actually
00:27:06the President of the USA, he
00:27:09proposed lifting sanctions, well, specifically on
00:27:12the supply of oil products,
00:27:14diesel for purposes, essentially electoral, to lower
00:27:18the price, to correct his
00:27:21and his party's support, well, this is not
00:27:25the only measure, there are others planned, sanctions need
00:27:28to be lifted in order to allow
00:27:31to... make a deal with Lukoil,
00:27:34where there is also an American company.
00:27:38Well, I immediately reacted to this in such a way
00:27:41that I objectively do not see any
00:27:44grounds for the situation to change
00:27:47fundamentally for us, but it, as it turned out,
00:27:50worsened, because these
00:27:53attempts to play, as the President
00:27:56of the USA says, in the interests of the American people, that is, he even,
00:28:00well, honestly says that in the interests of... he generally doesn't want to do anything
00:28:03for others, well, for Ukrainians, if we hoped
00:28:07for this, but I want to say one thing right away:
00:28:10for some reason, only Donald Trump is constantly mentioned, well, it's
00:28:14clear that he is the president, he is now the head
00:28:17of the executive branch, he is not like
00:28:20us, in their country the president is responsible for all
00:28:24executive decisions, but this is not only developed
00:28:28by him, there is now a complex configuration of opinions in
00:28:31America. and today we talked about this
00:28:35with me as a guest in my format geopolitical dialogues
00:28:38in the Ukrainian media center was Pavlo Klimkin, he also
00:28:42confirmed this
00:28:45assumption that, for example, Marco Rubio has now somewhat
00:28:48distanced himself from this, there are other
00:28:51players, so this is not just his personal
00:28:54records of Donald Trump
00:28:57there, as he likes epistolary, so that
00:29:01the market somewhere... to make it more
00:29:04volatile, so that they earn on this, he does it sometimes, unfortunately,
00:29:07for Americans, but here is a different story, he
00:29:11actually, well, in fact, there is a retransmission
00:29:14of Russian demands, that is, we thought that the stage
00:29:17when Donald Trump would try to establish
00:29:21peace, as he said, it ended
00:29:25precisely with the mechanism of pressure on Ukraine, we hoped that there would be a new
00:29:29stage where he could use...
00:29:32finally, on October 17, already completely the law
00:29:36on sanctions against Russia,
00:29:39and in the name of Graham, whom, well, everyone
00:29:42said, we honor Graham, and his
00:29:45legacy, and we will do this, in the end he
00:29:48turned around, in my opinion, well, I believe that this turn is very
00:29:51serious, if earlier some things
00:29:54were covered up, something was
00:29:57said one thing, then another was done, now it seems
00:30:01to me, everything is much more serious. everything is much more serious in the
00:30:05sense that such an action, in essence, does not
00:30:08increase sanctions on Russia, well, Donald Trump, and not only him, I repeat,
00:30:11the Ministry of Finance, Bessen, others, they
00:30:14have not imposed any sanctions on Russia during this period, and
00:30:18now they have started a bunch of initiatives to lift sanctions from
00:30:22Russia, that's one, so this can be followed by threats,
00:30:26well, the media write that they have already followed, well, I don't know, the media write it,
00:30:30but this is... and regarding
00:30:33the termination of the provision
00:30:36of any space data, well, what kind of space
00:30:39reconnaissance data is that, Mr. Ambassador, I wanted to
