large cracks appeared, this was reported in the kyiv city state administration. due to broken gremetization on the rails, there is significant flooding and this poses a threat to passenger transportation. currently, trains run only between heroiv dnipro and libitsk stations. restrictions in this area are introduced during urgent repairs, which will last approximately six months. as noted in the kmda , ground transport will soon be operational, duplicating the movement of matra trains to the teremky station. a few weeks ago there were the first such calls regarding the leakage of a large amount of water and the situation has unfortunately worsened in such a way that there has been a deformation of the tunnel, which means that it is dangerous, and safety for passengers is a key priority, among other topics. about the book and for the sake of the book.

kyivbook wiweekend book festival is taking place in the capital. in its framework, they talked about the activities of the ukrainian institute of books. my colleague tetyana golunova is currently there, so i tell tanya what events have already taken place and which ones are still worth waiting for. please. greetings, colleague, greetings viewers of espresso. tonight at the international exhibition center is very special. it sounds good here. music, good emotions are felt here, and of course, there are a lot of books here, all because a book festival has started in the capital, during which today we had time to talk about the ukrainian translation, as well as the popularization of ukrainian books. i would like to note that within the framework of this festival , they also talked about the ukrainian book institute, namely, summing up the results of its five-year work under the chairmanship under the chairmanship.

its director oleksandra koval, we talked with her, so i suggest you listen to what she told us directly. we did everything we could within the given framework and with the funding we were given, sometimes we did even more, this is in particular this year and last year, when the full-scale invasion began, the year we had no funds at all, and we asked for help. to our foreign partners and thanks to them we managed to do a lot, including the participation of ukraine in international fairs, there were nine of them that year, in this year nine, too, and it all happened mainly at the expense of foreigners. well, i will also say that literally right now.

a creative meeting with the author of the bestseller history and war, a veteran of the armed forces of ukraine , yuriy gudymenko, has already begun. if the people who come to this event make a donation, yuriy will give his autographed book as a gift. and i would like to note that all the funds that will be collected from the purchase of such books will be given to the children under the care of the charitable foundation, these are the children of all the victims of ukraine. their soldiers, and also to those fighters who were captured, well, i will remind you, i will also say that the festival will last until december 10 inclusive, so everyone who wants to still has the opportunity to visit it and buy books, that 's all for me for now, colleague, thank you very, well, so such an event took place in kyiv, kyiv bokformu, by the way , i want to say that my book war and myth...

was published this year with the support of the ukrainian institute of books, well, what is not , what is with the support, there was a certain stage is won and all selections are completed, but the important thing is that, well, the work on the publication of ukrainian books is being financed, it is also ongoing, because we have to win the war both on the battlefield and in the cultural, in the cultural aspect, i don’t want to say the front, but in the cultural aspect as well, because it is important, and of course it is important to know what happened in the world today, yuriy fizar came for this, to tell everything. as it is, good evening, of course, good evening to you vasyl, good evening to everyone who joined us, i will say as it is, in particular about this, again about aid to ukraine from of the united states of america, orban explained why, in his opinion, europeans do not want to see ukraine in nato, and putin said that he is nominating his candidacy for putin's election, about this and other things in a moment in the column world about ukraine. but i'll start with this: the leadership

of the united states of america has stated that it is making every effort to ensure that by the end of... 2023, russia will understand that it is necessary to sit down at the negotiating table on the terms that ukraine itself will put forward. this was said by the first deputy assistant to the president of the united states of america from the national security, jonathan finer. according to him, washington is trying to put the leadership in the kremlin before a choice, either they sit down at the table of changes on the terms of ukraine, or - says mr. first deputy, they will deal with a stronger ukraine, which... relies on a more powerful industrial base in the united states, europe and inside ukraine, and also more capable of launching an offensive, and then mr. jonathan feiner said, quote: "i don't know what the russians will decide in the end, but we would like to create such a dilemma for them." well, we also

need to give us weapons, equipment and ammunition for that this dilemma be accelerated by our brave soldiers on the front lines. a dilemma for russia, obviously. passing the draft law on the allocation of aid to ukraine will not only allow it to achieve success on the battlefield, but will also strengthen the morale of servicemen on the front lines. british foreign minister david cameron said this during his visit to washington. according to him, he does not doubt the courage, strength and unity of ukrainian soldiers? no, mr cameron says he is... more concerned about the failure of the measure to do what he should do in this situation, that is, to continue helping ukraine. at the same time , the head of the british foreign policy department said that the majority of american congressmen, with whom he had the opportunity to talk, support the allocation of aid to ukraine, because

, as he says, it is the right thing to do. well, then we listen to the minister of foreign affairs of great britain, james cameron, in direct speech. financial aid. not only because it's bad in itself, it'll just come back to grab more, well that's it commented in the kremlin, but i don’t even want to say what they commented, because this is such a standard russian blah blah blah, after all, the allocation of aid to ukraine, that the allocation of aid is an investment in ukraine and not only in ukraine, but also into the american economy, said so... united states secretary of state anthony blinken. according to him, about 90% of the money allocated to support kyiv actually went to the american military-industrial complex. according to mr. blinken, this led to the creation a large number of jobs, and he

added, further his quote: "our own economy is growing, it's definitely a win-win situation , so we need to continue in the same spirit." well, i hope that it reached the american lawmakers, i hope that the ukrainian landing force reached them, and, as far as i understand, from everything that i have read, it seems that the administration of joe biden did make some concessions on the issue that really annoys the republicans in the congress, and this is just a change in migration legislation, i don't know which ones concessions, but it seems that they have gone and it seems that there will be a vote in favor of ukraine. by the new year for sure. viktor orban spoke about ukraine again today, not on the air of his beloved radio station kosut, but he said: it's bad. in an interview with the french publication lepoint, during his visit to paris, he called ukraine one

of the most corrupt countries in the world, although he added that it was a joke and urged the leadership of the european union not to start negotiations on ukraine's accession to the eu, but motivated it. head of the hungarian government, so quote: firstly, because they are not ready for negotiations, i.e. ukrainians, secondly, because we europeans are not ready to accept them, ukraine is a big country with significant agriculture, if you allow this agriculture to enter the european agricultural system , she will destroy it the next day. viktor orban's honesty is impressive, and he also... he obviously spoke, he couldn't help but talk about it, he spoke about moscow and russia, what exactly he said, let's listen to viktor orban directly. russia belongs to a different form of civilization, historically, politically, geographically, traditionally it is a different

country. the question is, are our differences a reason not to cooperate? my answer is no. russian war in ukraine, although he is already used to it. did not call it russian and did not call it war, it took a back seat. the president of turkey, recep tayyip erdogan, said this today during the testimony of witnesses. to the trt forum. according to him, the world in general is going through very difficult times and now things are happening in other parts of the planet conflicts that pushed the war in ukraine from the forefront. moreover, recep tayyip erdogan said that those who started the fire in ukraine cannot solve the problems that arose because of it. but he added that, further, quote, in a just world there will be no losers. i don't know, really. why did he add that, what he meant by a just world, a world in which one country can

enter the territory of another country, kill people, destroy and threaten everything else around, well then it is an unjust world. yes, as if one day is not enough, in putin's russia will be elected president within three days. yes, it is putin, because the main terrorist of the world said that he will run for this position again. for the elections that will be held next year, he said this during a meeting with russian military assassins in the kremlin, and this is how he will be elected within three days from march 15 to 17, it was reported at a meeting of the central election commission of the country of terrorists. putin's term ends on may 7, but due to amendments to the russian constitution, his previous presidential terms were reset and he is now he can run for two more six -year terms, that is... putin can rule russia until 2036. well, that's it.

the transnistrian conflict will be resolved only when all russian troops are withdrawn not only from transnistria, but also from ukraine, although it is possible first from ukraine and then from transnistria. the prime minister of moldova, dorin rychan, said this on the broadcast of the tv channel "journal tv". according to him, any discussion about the settlement of the conflict in the so-called. transnistria should begin with demilitarization, and then explained in detail what he meant. in practice, this means that russian citizens, servicemen, must leave there, and military equipment too, this will happen in a normal way after the demilitarization of the russians in ukraine. well, in conclusion, the singapore company forier intelligence presented a video in which it showed. of its 12 newest humanoid septohuman-like robots, they

are even ready to ship to customers, the company says these robots have possibly the world's most advanced robotics and femoral joints, and they can lift weight up to 50 kg, despite the fact that they themselves weigh only 55 kg. what do these works look like? let's see.

we wish we had one such robot, well, at least one, so that he could somehow sneak into the kremlin and show putin what he can do with his hands. well, today i have everything in the world about ukraine column, everything this week, more will be next week, but not everything on our air, in a few minutes meet my colleague oleksandr morchavka, morchavka, who will tell. you about everything the most important thing from the world of money, i say goodbye to you, until next week, my name is yuriy fizar, as always, good evening, we are from ukraine, yes, well, we, back to the conversation, before i introduce the guest, i want ... tell about what we will talk about, this is a topic that today, again , may have remained unnoticed by many, but it

raises, leaves many questions, causes considerable resonance in the future, therefore , the finnish court refused to extradite such a person to ukraine a man called yana petrovsky or voyislav there torden is a war criminal, one of the leaders of the rusych sabotage and assault group, who is involved in the murder of ukrainian soldiers, participation in an aggressive war against ukraine in the 14th year, and at that time his most famous story was the story of the ambush he created and the shooting of a column of aydar fighters of the aydar battalion, then more than 40 ukrainian soldiers were killed, plus they also ambushed the 80th brigade, but the 80th landing brigade was able to break through this ambush, and the most odious thing was the worst

in this story was that that then they together with melchakov, another nazi and maniac, they took pictures on... on the background, against the background of the killed ukrainian soldiers, whose ears were cut off, swastikas were carved on their faces and so on, the finns are letting this person go home, we will talk about it with oleksandr pavlichenko, executive director, so human affairs, mr. oleksandr, i congratulate you, the ukrainian hertzian union for human rights, i congratulate you, mr. oleksandr, i congratulate you, good evening, i know, to refresh my memory, i just read the story of this petrov again . whose release the finns, from a legal point of view, i will not appeal to moral aspects now, we will appeal to them later to some common human concepts, let's see from a legal point of view, how can you explain such a decision of the finnish judiciary or justice, well, i think the first it is necessary to look at the text of this decision in order to interpret and explain it, this is the first, but

the second and important thing is that such a threat actually existed and... when we talked about the extradition arrest that was imposed on petrovsky, we immediately put forward such the assumption that this may happen precisely because of such reasons, because demands have been repeatedly made for ukraine regarding the non-compliance with the standards of detention in places of detention, including in the pre-trial detention center, and the conditions of detention are considered to exceed them. the level of ill-treatment or the use of torture, and actually this is the reason for refusing extradition, so this is a conclusion for ukraine, what should be done with the penitentiary system, and actually, when we move further in this direction, then actually there is not even a possibility to submit such extradition arrests, i hope, hoping for their satisfaction

in a positive, productive way, because, roughly speaking, we... are considered as some kind of such a cruel country with conditions of detention that are equivalent to the middle ages there, to put it mildly, and because of it will be a refusal on the part of such democratic , civilized countries with reference firstly , as was said, to the decision of the same european court of human rights, to reference the norms of the convention, article three of the european convention, the prevention of torture inhumane, degrading treatment or punishment, practice analysis, restraint. of ukrainian prisoners and those who are in ukrainian penitentiary institutions, this all plays precisely against ukraine. well, moreover, we now see photo-videos of how russian prisoners are kept, there the united nations organization provided information that 25 russian soldiers and only 21

ukrainian soldiers were tortured and killed in captivity during this war, for some reason only 21, although we, well , recently we saw two ukrainian soldiers who simply went out with their arms raised hands and were shot. this is just such a single story, we have such stories for sure, but in the un they always kill more, the russians torture, well, that's obvious, and the ukrainians are somehow much more cruel, it's obvious in this war. here is another question, we see how russian prisoners are received, people come who can monitor the situation, they see that they are clothed, fed, i do not think that even one russian prisoner of war was tortured in ukrainian prisons, maybe you know such facts, i do not know about the facts of the tortured of the russian military, but there were several facts in the past, when there were a little bit like, let's say, dubious cases of death of those who were accused of or aiding the russian occupiers, and we remember, there were

cases of strange suicide or falling from the stairs with serious fatal consequences . this , too, i think that if the lawyers of this pyatrovsky did a good job and they found all these cases and provided them as evidence of what might happen to him when he is placed in ukrainian penitentiary institutions, then this also plays against the movement of the ukrainian side. when we talk about prisoners of war, things are certainly better here, today we spoke with ms. noel calhoun, who currently works in the un monitoring mission. and yesterday she visited this very camp for prisoners of war, she once again confirms that the conditions of detention there are high-quality and satisfactory for the standards that she puts forward there. people's humanitarian law, and actually there are no claims regarding prisoners of war, but this person in question will not have the status of a prisoner of war, he will

a war criminal, let me remind you, a war criminal who committed a war crime against ukraine and ukrainian combatants, whose death and brutal treatment he is accused of military personnel were photographed against the backdrop of tortured ukrainian soldiers, he ambushed the aidar battalion in donbas, luhansk region, well, they actually sat down in positions that had been vacated by ukrainian troops, put up ukrainian flags and then actually shot for those people who did not expect this attack, and then mocked and tortured and actually bragged about it, it's just about who is yan petrovskyi, a nazi from the dsrwg rusych, there is also milchakov, the same maniac, but he is still on freedom walks this is a vivid example of a war crime, when the symbols, clothing, and

distinguishing signs of the opposing side are used, and this is called the crime of treason, it is defined as such in this international humanitarian law, just as it was committed by these rustics. i only in the end, very briefly, literally, and the fate of a political decision here can be on the part of finland? actually. i think that it cannot be appealed already, and accordingly here we will look at the further actions of the finnish side, what it will do with this detainee, who may have already been released today, but there was information that the same border guards he was arrested due to violation of migration legislation, this was actually the reason for the placement, thank you very much, mr. oleksandr, for the clarification, oleksandr pavlichenko, acting... director of the ukrainian helsinki union of human affairs, and this is milchakov, oh, not milchakov, but petrovsky at one time planned to leave for nice, but he was stopped in finland, he lived in norway for a long time, and supposedly he

should be returned to the territory of russia. well , there was a chance, let's say, to go to a ukrainian prison, we 'll put an end to that for now, but now i want to say that literally in a minute we will talk with oleksandr morshchivka about money during the war, it will be economic results of the week. do not miss, stay with us, and we will be back soon. try phlebodia 600. pink french pills for acute hemorrhoids. phlebodia 600, treat hemorrhoids without any pain. events, events that are happening right now and affect our lives. a news feed, of course. informs about them, but it is not enough to know what is happening, it is necessary to understand. antin borkovskii and invited experts soberly assess the events, analyze

them, modeling our future. every saturday at 13:10 with a repeat on sunday at 10:10. studio zahid with anton borkovsky at espresso. channel espresso and ukrainian pen present own names project with myroslava barchuk. a series of conversations with ukrainian and western intellectuals, who interpret and comment on the most relevant social discussions, what news will be analyzed by the guests of the project this week and, in fact, who will be the guest of the studio , we will find out already this sunday, unequivocally, the topics will be relevant, the guests will be special, their own names with myroslava barchuk, sunday 17:10 at espresso.

good evening, we are from ukraine, and we continue the economic results of the week on time oleksandr morchivka with us, oleksandr, be please, i congratulate the audience, i thank vasyl for his word, so the next few minutes we will summarize the results, you will find out how much the ukrainian

budget is losing. due to the blockade of the polish-ukrainian-polish border, as well as the state's restrictions, in particular the gold and currency reserves , international aid is not enough now, more about this and not only in details in a moment. i'm oleksandr morshchevka, congratulations, this is a column about money during the war, and i'll start with important information to avoid blackouts , ukraine is already the second. receives emergency aid from romania and poland in a row. electricity is imported until 19:00 during the day, due to the frost, ukrenergo says that consumption has increased by as much as 4%, and is at the highest level for the heating season. at the moment, there are no free capacities at the power plants, due to russian shelling , one of the thermal power plants in the eastern region was once again damaged, in another region, emergency repairs of one

of the power units are underway , and ... also repairs of some more units of thermal power plants throughout ukraine were noted in the company ukrenergo and remind, save kilowatts, do not turn on without unnecessary, especially in the evening hours of electrical equipment. well, if we talk about energy, ukraine, with the support of the united states agency for international development usaid, will receive 69 mini-thermal power plants by the end of the year. prime minister denys shmyhal announced this this week. for this, the government has simplified the procedure for their connection, canceled a number of permit procedures. the mini-test will be used to ensure uninterrupted power supply to schools, hospitals and critical infrastructure facilities. in addition to strumu, minitets will also produce at the same time warm. meanwhile, ukraine's international reserves decreased by half a percent in november, now

amounting to 38 billion. 785 million dollars, the state coffers are softening for the fourth month in a row, this is evidenced by the data of the national bank. well, they say , there was no such significant replenishment from international partners in november, but there were expenses , in particular, the national bank smoothed out exchange rate fluctuations, i.e. released currency from reserves on the interbank market, payments of ukraine's external debts also continued, well... here , for example, international 250 million dollars were paid to the currency fund, 109 million dollars were given to other creditors in november. well, we see that such a balance is taking place, but still international reserves are still at a record high level. well, this supports the stability of the hryvnia. the first meeting of the council of the international register of damages caused by russia will be held in the hague

before the end of the year. this was reported by the minister. prime minister denys shmyhal, head of the government , said that this month the european commission plans to present a plan for the use of frozen assets of russia to support our state. also, denys shmyhal reminded that in the states they have already presented a bipartisan bill on the confiscation of the property of sanctioned russian oligarchs. well, traditionally, this money should be directed to the reconstruction of ukraine. the state budget lost more than uah 9 billion in windfall. last month, all due to non-payment of customs payments, they were formed due to the blockade of the ukrainian-polish border. this was announced this week by the head of the parliamentary committee on finance, tax and of customs policy danylo hetmantsev. he noted that these losses of uah 9 billion are a powerful blow to our economy and, of course, to exports, and this is huge money that our army did not receive.
