Of nato and the minister of Foreign Affairs of poland, radoslaw sikorski, also said that poland supports ukraines strikes on military facilities on the territory of russia, thank you very much for support, but whether the reason lies in washington or in berlin, that until now it is not there, well, in fact, you can probably say that both in this and in this place, but in fact the reason. And this only increases the number of victims and causes the war to last longer, and not to be able to end, it will end, mr. Darich, but for the polish brothers the same dilemma, it seems to me, because two times it has already flown in one way or another into the airspace of poland, and here you know that there is an official appeal to poland to help close the sky at least in western regions of ukraine. We saw how they were pounding the lviv region, in particular the stria, and all the time, every time these missile attacks began, the air force of the republic of poland had to be raised, the f16s were in the air, and we spoke with many experts with certain means of defeating the airtoair class, from polish f16s it is possible to actually shoot down these cruise missiles and even hypersonic ones, eh. But the answer has not yet been heard, that is, it is the same dilemma now for poland regarding actions over foreign territory, well in this case ukrainian, is the reason here in Something Else . Well, first of all, it is all, or almost all, well, if we have such cases when missiles, for example, fly into the territory of poland, but that is a different matter, but more attacks are reflected in the airspace of ukraine , that means there was an appeal, and the agreement should look like what kind of document it is, well , first of all it should be a bilateral agreement, i. E. An agreement, in my opinion, between poland and ukraine on the very conditions of such activity, in which poland could theoretically churn enemy i think the easier way is to simply give ukraine more anticonflict defenses, and finally the f16s, which are due to arrive in the near future, and this is a much easier way to protect the skies above ukraine. We agree, because there is definitely no time for all these agreements, negotiations, it all needs to be done yesterday or the day before yesterday, and we see that poland is very actively carrying out a number of security measures. The first is that the actual security of the main hub, which supplies military aid, is being strengthened transshipment point, in fact, to ukraine. And we understand why this happens. Next , we see that poland is increasing surveillance of the borders with russia and belarus, ordering balloons, some additional means of strengthening this border, a very long border line, this is about. 400 km even shows how largescale it all is, so there are statements , there is a certain process, it happens quickly, slowly, and eh, will there be further steps, will there be a strengthening of these security measures in poland, well, of course there will not be, because certain things can be done quite quickly, then for example, what you said, that is, the purchase of balloons or the purchase of aircraft from.

This day is dedicated to honoring the memory of fallen american soldiers. And every year traditionally, on the eve of may 27 , such a specific event is held in chicago, it is actually a race dedicated to remembering these heroes. Fallen soldiers and it symbolizes unity and solidarity, uniting all veterans from Different Countries who are fighting for freedom, democracy, human rights, for everything that we are actually fighting for now, and for the third, third year in a row, the ukrainian veterinarians also participate in this event. This year, 11 active officers of the armed forces of ukraine, including two colonels, went to the United States. All of them take part in the war started by russia. Against ukraine since the 14th year, and our veteran sports delegation is headed by retired Major GeneralVolodymyr Gavrylov, he is in contact with our studio and colonel maksym koshovoy should also be in contact with us, oh we you we can already see you, we congratulate you, there is no race yet, maybe a few minutes, how did you meet in chicago, what. Uh, especially in chicago, theres a very strong diaspora that has an incredible vibe, has, ah, has an Incredible Energy that stretches from east to west, so were welcomed very warmly, uh, feel at home, theyre as much they contribute to this, well, in my opinion, but it seems that mr. General has regained contact, mr. General, have you already been to, as they say, to the southwest . In the Ukrainian Village, in westtown, did the diaspora come to you by itself, we met us, we were brought to the Ukrainian Village of chicago, this is the only district of chicago that has a separate ukrainian name the village, we were there in the churches, we were in the museums, this is the best district of chicago, and we are very proud that our ukrainians were able to do it here, its great, will there be any special preparations for this race, actually, how much should we try. To run, is there necessarily a certain mileage, well, in general , they prepared, they didnt prepare, well, its a war, during a war you dont prepare very much, because everyone arrived in the physical shape they got in the war, and the guys, because of the fact that they are active, they are constantly doing something, and therefore the general physical form, well, it will be enough to overcome 10 km, 10 km is normal, and you . Mr. Colonel, tell me, will this actually attract attention, do you have any fundraising goals to raise some funds, or will the Ukrainian Community donate and support the armed forces anyway . In fact, the Ukrainian Community very actively supports and supports our army, helps, especially those who were wounded, those who have some defects acquired as a result of the war. With this race, we want to show that in. It doesnt seem like ukraine is strong, it has never been kneel and will not kneel, and show a true ukrainian friend and the will to victory, we know that our military, our defenders in the United States of america are always met with Great Respect in stores and in various public places, when they learn that they are Ukrainian Military , express actually ot. This is such a very, very good attitude, have you come across this before and does it only apply to average americans, or do you also have the opportunity to talk to those who influence decisionmaking . Now when we are already preparing for the start, americans come to our group, he just came up in english, said glory to ukraine, then apologized that he didnt know any other words. But the attention is very high and everyone immediately recognizes that these are ukrainians and thanks for what we are doing, and well, extraordinary, mr. General, but tell me, you are ukrainians on average, ukrainians with american citizenship, and not of ukrainian origin, americans, have the opportunity somehow influence, but after such events that attract attention, influence that as soon as possible you, ours the american partners, who transfer weapons, also formally gave permission to attack the russianfascist invader on his territory, that is, they somehow have the opportunity to communicate and pressure, and the diaspora does this. Absolutely very actively working as senators, congressmen who represent the state in the congress, and they know this very well, and these events that we conduct, they add Additional Energy for the diaspora, to be more active, the influence of the diaspora, in particular, the state of illinois, where chicago is located , it is very high, and so we literally, how it feels every second that people are recognized. Exactly what is happening here, and they are with us, it is very important, we understand that when veterans come, it is very good, actually people perceive it, because they have the opportunity to communicate with someone who participated in combat actions, then in fact does he really know what is happening in the eastern direction in ukraine, is there also a need for even more ukrainian soldiers to come, those soldiers who. Maybe yesterday, the day before yesterday, they were still there on the front line, and tomorrow they will actually leave from such Diplomatic Missions as well, that is, not only to fight, but actually to come with your experience, tell, explain whether this can also be effective, do you see such a need, mr. Maxim, in general yes, first of all, it will be enough good rehab and a change of scenery for the warriors, the guys coming from the. Dova have to both rest and rehabilitate and also bring the latest information, the true information that we have at the moment on all our acute areas, so this is a very very right decision, and this must be supported, or Something Like this happens, i am not talking only about those who need physical rehabilitation due to injuries, i am talking in general, and i. I can add, if possible, yes, please, uh, look, we have any ukrainian, whether state, volunteer, or some foundations that come to america, he must Say Something about us somewhere, because there is not much information here on television, they try to give general news about us, but as a whole , the population needs it constantly a reminder of whats going on in our country and. The best option is for them to see and get that information from real people who talk to them and who have access to radio and television especially, so any appearance on local radio and television, to the regional other, it adds a huge effect to the awareness of the local population, now the American National anthem started playing before the start, mr. General, do you have in your program, apart from the race, the opportunity to hold such meetings, is it foreseen . Your program, well, first of all, we gave there and i personally gave a lot of interviews for local television, regional, national and radio, thats one, then we meet with key organizations that no longer provide assistance to us, this includes our ukrainian organizations, and there are american ones, and in washington, we also have meetings with local people, so it is like Public Diplomacy for the military with such a. Smell, lets say, because the reaction from the military, the reaction to the military is completely different, i will tell you, because they see our wounded especially on prostheses, here the people get such a drive that everything mr. General, mr. Colonel, we have communication, we are already told that the race is about to start, so we are very grateful to you that we were able to be together with the espresso spectators, let us remind you that this there was retired Major GeneralVolodymyr Gavrylov and colonel maksym koshovy, they are participants. This veteran race, which is traditionally held in may in chicago, i also want to remind you that there are already Many Organizations here, i saw even in the picture we could even see , who is among the organizers, this and Kyiv Committee of chicago sister cities international, that is, it turns out who did not know, chicago and kyiv are sister cities, they really say sisters, veteran ten, charity fund, vesna souljalfield 10, have you seen it . This was just a stretch right in the frame of revived soldier ukraine help heroes of ukraine, in fact the organizer was the sponsor of the project, and in fact the company infokhyst acted. While we were talking with our representatives, Volodymyr Gavrylov and maksym koshov, we heard the United StatesNational Anthem playing in the background america, and in a few minutes, there are literally four minutes left, this race starts, its not about time, its not about speed, its about a certain distance, and its actually a symbolic thing, its to hold an event for veterans, so that they can meet, talk, so that people can once again Pay Attention to this, because unfortunately, there are still a lot of warriors in the world and veterans will appear more and more, unfortunately, well, but this is also an opportunity, as they said our guests, to communicate, talk with diasporans, with representatives of the authorities of the United States of america, and in this way , too, we can convey more information about what is happening in our country firsthand, in fact, that the diaspora is not active. Veletensky district, this is a huge city within a city, and it is a ukrainian city in an american one, and it is important here that actually, so that they see that they are working with senators, this, and this is communication, maybe they will still add, as they say , together with biden on the one hand, on the other hand, or rather bidens blinken will add, on the other hand our diaspora. Vets, we will expect now we have to quickly talk about one important topic, because at the beginning of april , a powerful earthquake occurred in taiwan, the underground shock was the strongest in a quarter of a century, many missing people have died, lets look at this together, about the consequences of the destruction after this natural disaster. Damaged roads, suspended Train Services and catastrophic effects of the elements, the island nation of taiwan has been suffering from severe earthquakes for several months, with the tourist region of hoalien county in the eastern part of the country particularly affected due to constant shocks, business suffers losses, hotels and restaurants are closed, houses and architectural monuments are ruined. There were a lot of victims, it was confirmed for sure that there were more than 18 dead and also three missing, among them. Foreigners who were just in the mountains at that time, because this is hualien, it is the eastern part of taiwan, and there are often tourists there. At the beginning of the fullscale invasion, taiwan strongly condemned russias military actions, joining international sanctions. Thanks to volunteers and caring citizens from the Island Country to we received more than 150 special purpose vehicles. Now these machines help in cities. And at the front, they also provided more than 300 functional medical beds, and even more, there are volunteers in the armed forces who flew overseas to protect our country, so in a difficult time for the taiwanese, ukrainian volunteers decided to support and organized a prayer for this small asian country, i i know this church, i have been here a couple of times, that is, i imagine this church, the pastor, i know him personally, so we talked with him, as much as possible, he said, yes, it can be done, it must be done. In principle, who organized all this, helped us, i. E. Taiwan, it is also the presbyterian church, i. E. These are also church things, i. E. They therefore and precisely in the church do not just want it somewhere. The deacon of the church, maksym, claims that cohesion is more important than ever, because no matter where a person is on the globe, common prayer unites. We also, as a country that is currently suffering from an aggressor, we will unite. In prayer for the lord to protect our country, and we, as a country that understands what grief is, what sadness is, we can also sympathize with other people who are also suffering now. Those present not only turned to the almighty and asked for the wellbeing of taiwan and its inhabitants, but were able to communicate with eyewitnesses of the events through online communication.
