oncological diseases that undergo chemotherapy and in which side effects such as nausea, headache, and other chronic pain may appear after chemotherapy. today, there is a clear evidence base that drugs made from medical cannabis can reduce these symptoms and restore quality of life to people who have this disease. i would like to emphasize that these drugs will be dispensed exclusively for electronic prescription, and like other narcotics, we will have clear tracking of which doctor, which patient, what dosage he prescribes, in order to immediately remove any myths that there may be some illegal circulation of cannabis on the territory of ukraine. the ukrainian and polish ministers of infrastructure met for the first time in warsaw. the topic of discussion was the issues of the transport sphere and, in particular, the main one. to unlock

the border. it is important to come to a common understanding of figures and data regarding transportation and the market share occupied by our and polish carriers. but while the number of trucks on the polish-ukrainian border has increased in times there are almost 4,000 vans in the queue. to get to ukraine, drivers have to stand in line for two weeks. our correspondent khrystyna hashenko visited poland and had a conversation. with drivers, what is the situation on the other side of the border , see in her exclusive report: in lviv oblast, under the blockade of polish protesters for more than a month and a half , three checkpoints remain, this is the checkpoint of doctor sheghini for entry into ukraine, drivers of cars and minibuses are waiting here, however there is no truck in the queue. trucks blocking polish farmers at this point pass is parked on the uzbitch track 2 km away. to the border, their movement here is closely

monitored by the local police. the police allow four trucks to pass through the queue every hour to the checkpoint. it took an hour to drive 100 m, then another 100 m in an hour. very bad. the line of trucks to the border stretched for 70 km, drivers have to wait almost two weeks to get to ukraine. some drivers are lucky and their ukraine. the company is replaced by other colleagues, he had to load, loaded the car, stood there for a week, the car was in the queue and he i returned home, well, by bus, and i left for the car, well, also by bus, but i have permission to leave, i have a family with many children, and it is difficult to get food here, the drivers say, the nearest store is more than 2 km away, so men order delivery of ready-made meals from local pubs, for example, such a lunch costs almost 300 hryvnias. a little expensive, but it can be. due to the polish blockade

, international transportation has become more expensive, but driver salaries have not. prices have risen for the transportation itself, let's say in percentages, maybe some rates there have risen 100%, maybe some 50% rose, but again , only one border opened, it was the only one, and the rates began to fall sharply, let's say, the queue was still big, the queues were still the same, and again... now it's blocked, what will happen next, we can't to say, polish drivers are also in line with ukrainians, poles do not want to talk openly about protesters. they don't fully know why they are protesting, i understand those who are transporters , but farmers don't, maybe it is related to that transport or something, they stand in the same queue as ukrainian drivers, and i don't want to know about it speak. gasoline trucks, which according to international rules... should cross

the border without hindrance, are also standing in line. seven days in a row , roman's car has been parked in uzbichka, and at this checkpoint he explains the unclear rules of the blockade. during our shooting, we notice a truck with foreign registration passing the line and a polish police car. a lot of cars head to the border in a row, especially at night, say parked drivers. it happens here at night, the boys sleep because they want to sleep, and they are like two, four o'clock and so on fly by do they go alone or with a police escort? the police, who control the passage of cars from the queue, refuse to speak to the camera, only explaining that the cars are going to the parking lot, which is closer to the border. these cars are not... stopped by the police and

the protesters themselves. they are literally in a small mafia, which was specially established here. nearby, their colleagues are decorating a christmas nativity scene. farmers' requirements are unchanged from their authorities demand subsidies for corn and preservation of the tax on agricultural products. previous the authorities did not fulfill the established orders and obligations, therefore the european union did not want to provide funds, but waited for tusk to come to power, and this money would be provided for mr. tusk. as soon as he receives the money, i hope that this situation at the border will be relieved and resolved, and the demands of the carriers, as well as farmers, will be met. ukrainian politicians together with their colleagues from poland will once again try to resolve the issue of the protesters, representatives of the new government of donald tusk plan to visit kyiv in the next few days. from poland, khrystyna ashenko and yurii golubinka, details, intermarathon tv channel edina news. transport

collapse may occur in the capital. kyiv officials talked about the possible closure of the metro bridge, and as a result, part of the red line of the metro. our studio. the group conducted an experiment on how to get from the left bank to the right bank without a subway. the conclusion is another quest. take a look. the capital metro bridge can be closed if the examination determines that it is in an emergency condition. this statement of andrii vitrenka, the permanent committee of the kyiv city council on budget issues, was shocking news for kyivans living on the left bank, because if the bridge is closed, several stations of the red line will not work either. if the examination shows that there is room. it will be necessary to close the currently allocated funds for the development of design and estimate documentation, for the creation of relevant search works, and if it is confirmed that it is dangerous, then, unfortunately, there will be a demand to close this bridge. the probable closure of several

metro stations will be a new blow to the transport system of the capital. kyivans already understand that going from the left bank to the right will be long and expensive inconveniently. well, it's difficult, because the transport will have to... pay twice as much, first of all it will be very inconvenient to get to work, well , we use the bridge, it will be very inconvenient, i would not like it to be blocked, here a lot of people go to the right bank, as get there, transport except 55, no one goes there, as you think, it will be difficult or very difficult, i decided to conduct my experiment to understand exactly what the difficulty will be and... how the people of kyiv living on the left bank will have to go to the right bank, at the same time without going down to the underground? i live on the left bank and i cover most of the way with the red line of the metro, but what will happen if the metro bridge is declared emergency and several stations are closed, so far this is

an unanswered question, just now i will cover this path without going down into the underground. i wonder how long it will take? 300 m from the house, and i'm already near the bus station. i get on the bus for the first time, there are not too many people, but after a few stops the cabin is already full. we have just passed the photo bridge on the public transport lane there is no such bridge. the bus takes me to the contract square in half an hour. the first and most difficult part of the journey is over, now i have to walk another 300 m and get on the next bus. i could use the subway and get there. almost to the office itself, but the contract area station may also be under threat of closure. andriy vitrenko, a member of the kyiv city council, also announced that three stations of the blue line of the metro, from the contract line to the final line, may suspend their work. this is the section where significant

subsidence of the kyiv subway tunnel occurred, which requires significant funds for capital repairs, and the repair of this section alone is budgeted for 540 million uah this year. and therefore i don't go down to the underground again, an extra 15 minutes of waiting, plus another 10 on the way, and i'm on zlatoustivska street. i'm already on the road 1:15 minutes, although usually my journey takes about an hour, if i used the metro, i would have been at work a long time ago, but my quest is still going on, i'm only happy that there is only one transfer left, and there is an important point to consider , the experiment i conduct when most metro stations... still work, which means they carry thousands of passengers. urbanist oleksandr grychko says that if another part of the capital's subway fails, from the point of view of transport, it will almost cut the capital in half. this means that the red branch can be cut in two

as well as the needle of the blue metro line, and then many residents of the left bank will have to look for alternative ways of transportation. if we imagine the situation that one more bridge is accidentally closed or blocked, this will again increase the load other bridges and... well, traffic jams will also increase. at the same time, the capital's officials deny the problems on the metro bridge. the city department of transport infrastructure told me that the crossing will last for more than one year without any restrictions. these design solutions, which are provided for strengthening, that is , in general, for emergency works of road crossings, do not provide for the closure of traffic, neither the subway, nor automobile traffic. but the repair between the contract area and the it will still happen, it will most likely be started in the summer, but certainly not before it is completed

works near demiivska. in our understanding , we plan to finish these works within six months. now we cannot predict exactly, but let's hope that we will stick to it for six months. deputy of the kyiv city council andriy vitrenko is convinced that the problem is that, taking on the repair of stations, subways and tunnels, and spending billions of hryvnias on this, they are not spending money on urgent needs, we can replace tiles in the kyiv subway, i have seen how those or other decorative elements or elements of the facade, i saw how money is spent on repairing the escalators, because they are also very tired. deputy of the kyiv city council andriy vitrenko is convinced that the problem is that, taking on the repair of stations, subways and tunnels and spending billions of hryvnias on it, officials spend money not on urgent needs, but on cosmetics. the level of management has increased, the efficiency of managing the metro has increased, and in general, the city authorities have paid attention to

the metro and ground transport, since this is the main transport that transports the most residents of kyiv, and it is necessary invest meanwhile, my experiment is coming to an end. so, i'm finally here, my journey took an hour and 40 minutes. during this time, i spent 31 hryvnias for two buses and a minibus. so it remains to be hoped that , if the metro stations have to be closed for repairs, then not in several directions at once, and most importantly, that the ocean will be an alternative to get from the left bank to the right bank and back, elizaveta yakovleva, volodymyr dedov, details telekanal inter, only news marathon. there will be more fakes and they will be directed at three audiences at once, the russians themselves, international partners of ukraine, and, of course, on us ukrainians. still. the conclusions regarding the spread of russian propaganda were made in the center for combating disinformation based on the results of the

past year. what topics did the kremlin mouthpiece use to produce fakes in 2023, where did it spread them, and who did it use for this? danil snisar will tell about it. almost two hundred blocked propaganda youtube channels have been closed. sites and dozens of pseudo-media pages in telegram, this is the result of the work of specialists of the center for countering disinformation. what is happening today in information space, this is war. on what topics did russian propaganda speculate and lie in the passing lesson, and how does it continue to wash the cities of its own people with the mouths of those who betrayed ukraine? we will find out further. at the beginning of 2023, the kremlin bet on discrediting president volodymyr zelenskyi and his wife. in the center vs. misinformationists believe that in this way russia continued operation black hole, the purpose of which is to make sure that

all the aid provided to ukraine disappears and settles in the pockets of the first persons. they were on their way invented and absurd information sources, for example, the first lady's foundation tried to blame for the distribution of macarons in louis vuitton bags in the capital, referring to this video. and the video turned out to be a fake, because the postcards on the packages were also fake, and the fund itself did not transfer the aid in the capital at that time. well, about which hut, if it happened in kyiv, said the woman behind the scenes - it's a mystery, unless it's about a metro station. after all, this campaign is still going on, here is one of the autumn pearls of enemy propaganda. he will spend more than a million dollars for vladimir's half-time wife zelensky bought jewelry on the fifth vein. an employee of one of the boutiques told about it. this fake, which was the first to be published by the nigerian media, was almost immediately hailed with misinformation. it turned out that

the president's wife was not in the states at that time , but in canada, and the page on instagram, allegedly of a shop assistant, which was referred to, disappeared as quickly as it appeared. during 2023, rospropaganda tried to engage its information campaigns, using the flaws of the ukrainian information space, in several directions, say the center of counteraction misinformation three of the largest slept. this is the first definite counteroffensive, the second outbreak is a possible attack on the zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant, and the third is a conflict between military aircraft. another event that the russians used for a powerful informational attack was the attack by hamas on israel and the subsequent conflict, for which only one video was enough to be faked, where thanks to ukraine in arabic for allegedly providing weapons to the palestinians was enough. scandalous finds of ukrainian weapons in hamas, he traded with western supplies.

then in our intelligence, and in israel and in the united states. the information was denied, but the mouthpieces of the kremlin preferred to ignore such trifles . they must demonize us ukrainians, that we are persecutors, that we have failed and the like, but we even sell american weapons to terrorists, we sponsor not only weapons, but also organs. during the year, russia tried in every possible way to convince the world that ukraine was selling off its fighters piecemeal. similar headlines were shared in telegram channels and other social platforms. and the final of this one. campaign, well a conventional such apogee can be called the release of the propaganda film tanks for the kidneys, in which they basically compiled the fantasies produced over all these 10 years

. example - case zelenskyi's film, the new history of ukraine, which... if you didn't understand, this is yuriy bardash, a producer and choreographer who fled from ukraine, trying to connect two words and explain pseudo-documentalists, why did the ukrainians go to the maidan. in such movies, russia uses foreign experts, so to speak, so that the information looks more convincing. the cpd keeps their list, it contains hundreds of

foreign-language putin henchmen. we have no doubt that it is russian. agents were recruited six times by the kgb, these are all former retired generals, admirals, directors of some departments there, who in principle have no weight. there is no optimal recipe for not getting hooked by the russian horn. experts advise especially be careful with information from the internet. the enemy reproduces its fakes on all known social resources. and if the source is anonymous, then you shouldn't trust him. volodymyr samchenko, details, intermarathon tv channel, single news. french writer marc levy's book about the abduction of ukrainian children will become a film. the author plans to make a screen version of his 25th anniversary novel symphony of monsters, which was recently published in france. this is a story about a ukrainian boy who was illegally removed from his family by the russians. mark levy is one

more about mark's attitude to the war in ukraine, the genocide of ukrainians and cultural influence, below in the direct language of the author. first of all i want to thank you for taking the time to do this interview. thank you. what kind of feedback do you get? there are many reviews. in fact , i would say that 90% of them are in a state of shock, because these readers had no idea what was going on, that is, about the abduction of children, they were affected by this book, they were frightened by what they read. also, sometimes readers write about great relief, thanks to the fact that they learned more about what really happens with the abductions. please tell us about your heroes, do they have prototypes in real life? no, no, i've read many stories,

it took four months to process documents and create characters, i thoroughly studied this topic, saw many reports, read hundreds of pages of testimony, listened to a lot. i was quite lucky because a yale study on abducted children had just come out, which was... a great source of information, i know you were in ukraine during the war, what was that like? it was extremely inspiring and poignant, and at the same time i was shocked for many reasons, mainly because the war became a reality, it's not that will be shown on tv, and at the same time i was impressed by the courage of the ukrainian people and those who live in kyiv, and their decision not to abandon the place where... they live during a barbaric attack, this is an extraordinary lesson in humanity, and also a lesson in what democracy really is when your house is on fire when i wrote my

previous book, i followed what putin was doing and saw what was coming, like watching a thunderstorm coming. i have no doubt that if the ukrainians had not resisted, had not fought, putin would have stopped somewhere in poland. as soon as the conflict started, i tried to explain to the people around me that ukrainians are at peace. when dealing with such a conflict, one must once and for all convey to those who can provide assistance what is really the goal at stake? among all the crimes that russia commits in ukraine, why did you choose the topic of child abduction for roman? strongly removes ukrainian children, he not only takes them to other occupied territories or to russia, he instills in them a new russian identity, this is absolute

proof of his desire to commit genocide against of the ukrainian people. all other judgments on this topic are lies. here he is, this proof that his goal is to completely destroy ukraine, erase its culture, kill the young generation of ukrainians, change them. he does not want a future for ukraine. when people talk about negotiations,... you have to understand with whom you want to negotiate, you want to talk with a war criminal, with someone who planned to destroy an entire nation. in your opinion, how does literature and culture in general affect social events? it has a great influence, because books, films, music, theater are what make us unites, it reminds us that we belong to the same human species. why... in your opinion , the russians are bombing your ancient cemeteries because they want to erase the past of your culture. why does every dictator burn books, because books increase empathy. the period we live in...

has never been so close to the 1930s, when nazism was on the rise in germany, if more german readers had the opportunity to read books about what the nazis were actually doing, they would feel empathy for the first victims of nazism. each one dictatorship, every autocracy has one goal: to dehumanize its victims, to convince them that they are no longer human. books, movies, and culture do the opposite. allow me to finish my answer like this. i know that france... is one of those western countries that can motivate people to do more, but there is always a temptation to say: the war is so far away, it is not in my country, but when you read the story of valentine and his mother, you forget that they ukrainians valentin, he is like your younger brother or son, veronica is a nurse, but she can also be french nurse, they look just like you, that's what books and art convey. why

did the great russian culture fail in russia? because of corruption, corrupt influence, the autocratic movement is stronger, but that doesn't mean the culture doesn't resist, it's just not as strong. if you, as a writer, could write an ending for the russian-ukrainian war, what would it be? i believe that when a nation decides to defend its freedom. nothing will be able to stop her from success, even the strongest army in the world will not be able to break the people who fight for your freedom i say this as the son of a man who resisted when he was 18, then he was fighting nazism. when my father joined the resistance, it was 1943, and it took a lot of optimism to believe in 1943 that nazism and the nazi army could be defeated, but they succeeded.

i am deeply... heartened that the optimism of the ukrainians will prevail, that they will win this battle, and i believe very strongly in the ukrainian war, that was the last question, thank you for taking the time for your support and for spreading the word about ukraine and russian crimes. please, and see you in kyiv. the chevorons, which are approaching victory , drove normally, nothing broke, that's all, mom, come on, i'll dial later, sir, what are you doing, be careful, so i am, gently. it's kuttia in

cans, but i, to be honest, it's not very good, my mother cooked it for you, i'll come, if you don't eat, i understand, plus, come on, 10 minutes, we'll be leaving, and we've reworked it a little, this a really powerful thing, a mattress, petrovich, what are you doing, i ordered a pizza, but no, it's a really powerful thing, oh, i almost killed myself, they'll fix it here.

put generators on the balcony, a generator emits gentle gas, therefore only in the yard six meters from windows and doors, safety rules are observed, they save lives, i am a russian military ship, i suggest putting weapons on the ship. it has been transferred to ukraine, and the glorious ones, god, in the future, tomorrow, fate will sleep, they will change their clothes.
