Speaker A

The capital is turning into a frontline city. Russia has completely seized the skies over Kyiv. And it's not just about Kyiv, friends, that we will be talking about. Naturally, we will now discuss the complications with communications.

00:13

Speaker A

What kind of way out is our "mighty" leader looking for? And, of course, the fact that the net is tightening around him. According to one version, by the way, he needs to survive until November 3rd, the elections in the United States

00:27

Speaker A

of America, and then something will change for our leader, and he will get cash again, get "might," and, of course, the opportunity to continue his struggle. Let's, friends, figure out where I get such loud headlines from.

00:40

Speaker A

Kyiv is turning into a frontline city, says The Guardian. Russia is signaling that it intends to intensify strikes on Kyiv and Ukraine even further, because they say there is no deal, no agreements, and no terms with Donald Trump and Ukraine right now. Russia

00:57

Speaker A

launched a record 25 Zircon-type missiles overnight. These, friends, are hypersonic missiles, missiles that, in reality, cannot be shot down by any air defense. And Russia, as you can see, is not sparing these very missiles.

01:11

Speaker A

Despite the claims of our "mighty ones" at the beginning of the war that Russia was running out of missiles, we see their production increasing, and their stockpiles are growing at the same time. What are we supposed to count on?

01:25

Speaker A

What are we to hope for in such a difficult situation? Maybe the West will help us. Tonight, agent Elon Musk restricted the operation of Starlink terminals in Ukraine. This information is confirmed by numerous Ukrainian "mighty ones," leaders, and little

01:41

Speaker A

leaders. All those same people who have always been and will always be for the war because they are not fighting in it. This information is confirmed. It even got to the point that Mykhailo Fedorov wrote that any moment now, as

01:55

Speaker A

they say, everything there will basically be working again. What does Mykhailo Fedorov even have to do with any of this? That, of course, remains a rhetorical and open question. Alexander Novak announced Ukrainian Armed Forces attacks on oil refineries in the

02:11

Speaker A

Saratov and Ryazan regions. This, dear friends, is an official confirmation from the Russian Federation, from their government, that the attacks did indeed take place. This means Volodymyr Zelenskyy has ignored Trump and his agreement, which he voiced, with the

02:27

Speaker A

Russian Federation regarding not hitting oil refineries and oil production facilities where gasoline, diesel, and similar things are produced. So we see that Zelenskyy has taken, so to speak, the "might," the vector of "might," the vector of indomitability.

02:43

Speaker A

Some wicked or well-meaning tongues for some reason convinced him that after the Congressional elections, the situation would change sharply and "might" would return to him. Although, in reality, whatever the election results are, Trump remains president regardless, and he isn't going anywhere.

03:00

Speaker A

And our leader at this moment arrived for support not just anywhere, but in London. You see, friends, he is met by the thinned-down draft-dodging general, the deserter Zaluzhny. Furthermore, he is being met. I don’t understand why they do this. By tradition, the captain

03:31

Speaker A

of the aircraft that brought Zelensky there. Was brought. Excuse me. That way, I suppose, it all looks more powerful and unbreakable. He also met there with that very prince, who is, so to speak, just about, as they say, just about to

03:47

Speaker A

be, but he went anyway to soak up some power. And what was he saying there? He made many fairly serious statements there. Zelensky stated that he feels betrayed due to Trump's decision to conclude a diesel deal with Russia. By

04:03

Speaker A

the way, friends, after the diesel deal, my suspicions were confirmed. I will definitely tell you about them now. I have not only our vague suspicions for this, but naturally, there is also confirmation. I think you yourselves will agree with me now. What do they

04:16

Speaker A

consist of? That they want to gradually return the Russian Federation to the world economy, by, let's say, removing and setting aside the situation related to Ukraine and this conflict, and in parallel, carry out procedures that will lead to the lifting of sanctions

04:34

Speaker A

—we see they have been partially lifted already, these same sanctions from the Russian Federation—and subsequently a full return of Russia to the global economy, to the economy, naturally, to economic relations with the United States, and thereby, I think,

04:51

Speaker A

a path that will be linked to ending this bloody conflict in Ukraine. And what does Russia get in return? Well, Russia in return, I think they have already done this, and they still have the opportunity to release some

05:03

Speaker A

political prisoners. I believe this scheme has already been tested on a neighboring country, namely Belarus. A representative of Donald Trump traveled to Belarus and held negotiations and reached agreements there. There, I believe, hundreds of prisoners, as far as I remember, have already been

05:18

Speaker A

released and will continue to be released. In exchange for this, sanctions are lifted from Belarus, so they will lead the Russian Federation through the same scheme. After all, we understand that the United States needs the resources located in the Russian

05:32

Speaker A

Federation. This is, naturally, oil. This is, naturally, diesel and those very rare-earth metals that Donald Trump has spoken about numerous times.

05:43

Speaker A

As for me, friends, it is certainly better for world leaders to talk about business, trade, deals, and lifting sanctions than for them to talk about a third world war. Neither Trump, nor Musk, nor anyone else in the world can

05:55

Speaker A

choose the president of Ukraine. Only the citizens of Ukraine can do that. Meaning it’s the same familiar scheme again, a familiar story: I am legitimate, I was elected for 5 years, but I’ve decided to stay a little longer due to circumstances completely

06:11

Speaker A

beyond my control, as they say, as long as the war lasts, and only God knows when it will end. And, as they say, my legitimacy rests on that for now. And no evil Americans have the right to interfere in this and say that there

06:24

Speaker A

should be elections, or worse, demand the replacement of me, the eternal, infinite leader of Ukraine. The host asks: "Are you not planning to resign?" Of course not. This is my responsibility. So, friends, under no circumstances, under no pressure, in no

06:43

Speaker A

situation—unless something happens related to Zelensky’s life—does he intend to leave or resign. It is for this "potuzhnist" (strength), for this support, that he went to Britain. A video from the front shows a Russian armored vehicle driving with Russian flags, and now next to it, an American

07:20

Speaker A

flag. That is why, as they say, precisely why Zelensky said he feels betrayed, deceived, and well, what else could one expect if you don't agree to the conditions put forward by the President of the United States of America? Musk and Trump are throwing

07:41

Speaker A

Ukraine to the wolves. The Telegraph, friends; that’s why Zelensky went to Britain, because they write such "potuzhni" (powerful), correct headlines there—the correct media and the correct newspapers are in Britain. Le Pen promises to stop financing Ukraine if she wins the election. By the way, I

08:01

Speaker A

want to note that similar voices are coming from Germany. After all, we know that the opposition party AfD won some local and state elections there. And accordingly, they are saying the exact same thing, word for word. And for

08:16

Speaker A

Zelensky, to be left without his main helpers in the war, those who provide him with finances, without Germany and without France... Well, we understand, it’s akin to death. The question is not just for me; every one of you has

08:30

Speaker A

this question. Where is the air defense of the capital of Ukraine? Where is the protection for Ukrenergo? Where are the billions that were allocated? And lastly, I will tell you, as the head of the Association of Ukrainian Cities, he

08:46

Speaker A

talks about how other cities prepared, claiming it’s the opposite of Kyiv; that is not true.

09:03

Speaker A

in Ukraine. Maryana Bezuhla put the question to a vote, and the deputies voted; Klitschko was invited to the Verkhovna Rada because Zelensky now has an idea to dump everything on him, remove Klitschko, and put Malyuk there.

09:17

Speaker A

That is the former head of the SBU. Klitschko is speaking in the Rada this time, as they say, tearing the "Green" team to shreds. They aim to destroy not just Kyiv, removing heads of communities on trumped-up grounds, making absurd accusations, and

09:35

Speaker A

intimidating small-town leaders with criminal cases. Kyiv is the heart of the state, which the enemy is trying to destroy, but the politicians trying to do the same are no less terrible. And you know what? Kyiv will endure. Kyiv

09:53

Speaker A

will endure thanks to the people who work in the city. Thanks to the people who love this city. Thanks to the people who fight for the city, fighting for the European democratic future of our state. Glory to Ukraine!

10:10

Speaker A

Earlier, Klitschko said that everything had been stolen, as they say, they stole everything, and now they are demanding something from me. Therefore, let him talk, let them keep shaking things up. It’s a swamp. Let them do whatever they are doing. Although, you

10:22

Speaker A

know, I am not a fan of that same boxer . Yushchenko wrote an open letter to Trump. Clearly, things are going really badly. They pulled out that Yushchenko, that museum piece, dusted him off, fed him honey, and accordingly, he went on

10:39

Speaker A

to talk all kinds of nonsense, writing open letters on Facebook and so on. Well, as they say, there you have it, a real Ukrainian patriot. Neither he nor a single relative of his is fighting in the war, yet he wants to use other

10:56

Speaker A

people's lives to keep it going. You scoundrel, I mean Yushchenko, you could have actually chosen a normal position for peace. What exactly are you losing, you bastard? Why are you doing this?

11:09

Speaker A

Well, a scoundrel, in a word, just like all the presidents of Ukraine. Many parents have been reaching out for years saying that it is very difficult to find a job for a child aged 14 to 18 . A child is anyone under 18.

11:22

Speaker A

Consequently, it is hard to find work so that a child can gain their first job experience during that time. This applies to both vacation times and times when children and teenagers want to help their families. Actually, people often ask regarding this bill

11:34

Speaker A

whether international treaties require an increase in hours or contain norms about how much teenagers should work.

11:40

Speaker A

Halyna Tretyakova, who is a low-quality woman, is talking about the "fight or work" concept. And preferably start working right from school age; why do children need to study in school anyway ? Let them go to work instead.

11:56

Speaker A

Convention 138, a convention of the International Labour Organization, which lacks clear standards but states that weekly work limits must be fixed in national legislation. We currently have 24-36, meaning for 14-16-year-olds , 24 hours a week and 36 hours. The

12:10

Speaker A

author, the main author of the bill, Halyna Yanchenko, proposes to increase it by two hours for children. The thing is, while preparing the Labor Code, we also increased overtime for all Ukrainians. We all know that for adults , our work week is limited to 40 hours.

12:23

Speaker A

At the same time, the legislation contains a provision that there can be overtime. This is another point for those who say that Ukraine has been completely sold off along with its people, land, and everything else, because it will be profitable for

12:37

Speaker A

someone to work in these enterprises, mining these very rare-earth metals. And why not, as they say, use children while the adults are fighting? So we were betrayed, sold out, handed over by these sellouts for $ 5,000 a month, I

12:50

Speaker A

want to remind you, that's what they get for voting for all kinds of crap.

12:55

Speaker A

Odesa. October 14th, '26. This is Zabolotnoho, Dobrovolskoho. They put shelters here for us. Well, Zabolotnoho , here's a tram stop. You see the shelters, the tram stops. Does it even open? Oh, it's locked, damn it. They installed it, but it's locked. And what

13:17

Speaker A

is this? Well, they made a stall. Can you drive in, right? But they haven't finished installing it yet. So, when will they set up the shelter? What do you think? Write in the comments. Aha, here's another door. Maybe we can enter

13:31

Speaker A

through this door? Yeah. Like hell. In short, it's all clear. There's a shelter, but no way in.

13:41

Speaker A

This, friends, is Odesa on camera. I assume the idea is that if there's an air raid, Uncle Petya will come from somewhere and open it with a key.

13:49

Speaker A

You'll be able, as they say, to get inside. These are questions for the local authorities. Just like when Klitschko says that no one is to blame for anything. And take a look at this, you know, a video about "powerfulness."

13:59

Speaker A

It's short, but very "powerful." Ukraine needs to ensure that all state resources are focused on uniting people and bringing them here. They are fighting against the TCC agents, playing these clips. Yes, these videos are often filmed in Russia disguised as

14:13

Speaker A

Ukrainians, disguised as the Ukrainian Armed Forces. They film them in Russia and show them.

14:19

Speaker A

The main thing is that he explains it all. Like scenes from Russian films that were filmed there before. And the point is, I assume they probably forgot to give them the new handbook. That's no longer relevant; for about a year

14:32

Speaker A

and a half or two, this story that someone is filming something for us in Russia. Friends, without your likes, Vovchik and I are, as they say, lonely and sad. So please give us a thumbs up.

14:43

Speaker A

Of course, subscribe to this very channel of mine, if you haven't done so yet. That would be just super.

14:50

Speaker A

Financial capabilities and analyses of the Russian banking system today show that, without a crisis, they can at most last until the middle of next year . M.
