00:00Three and a half years ago, when the special military operation was started, some criticism
00:04was voiced regarding the Russian army, regarding the Russian state, that we are lagging behind
00:10in some aspects.
00:13And some failures that occurred were due to that.
00:17Over that period of time, have we catched up?
00:22And secondly, once we're speaking with the Russian soldiers at the moment, what is the
00:26situation on the front line?
00:28What is your take?
00:31Most importantly, it's not that we lag behind, but we ain't seen some of the novel things.
00:38Not that we wanted to do something, but we failed to do that on time.
00:44Some things are brand new for us, and this is my first point.
00:50My second point is that we've been waging war.
00:53We've been manufacturing the military hardware, but on the other side, very many countries,
01:03all NATO countries have been waging war against us.
01:07all of them put together.
01:10And there are instructors, unfortunately, who actually participate in the hostilities.
01:21They established a center, a special center in Europe that has been providing the support
01:29to the Ukrainian army, feeding information and intelligence data from satellites to them,
01:39training them, supplying arms.
01:41And the instructors participate not only in the training, but also in the decision-making
01:46and the implementation, in the implementation of these decisions, definitely this is a formidable
01:55challenge for us.
01:56But the Russian army, the Russian state and our defense industry has adapted themselves quickly
02:06to this new challenge, and we have been rising up to this challenge.
02:09It's not an overstatement or bragging to say that currently this army is the most combat effective
02:21with respect to the degree of training and technical capabilities and the knowledge to apply those
02:31capabilities and supplying new prototypes of items to the front line and the tactics also were
02:39quite knowledgeable.
02:41We excel.
02:42This is the answer.
