ukrainians will celebrate christmas for the first time on december 25. this is evidenced by public opinion polls. as for the date of christmas itself, discussions took place for years, and only in the second year of the full-scale war did the churches reach a common decision. how did you decide? on this historic step, my colleague natalya stareprava will tell. this year, believers of the orthodox church of ukraine and the ukrainian greek catholic church jointly celebrate christmas on december 25 for the first time. a few years ago, the issue of transition to a new calendar remained at the level of discussions. this year, this is a decisive step not only of a socio-religious nature, but also of a geopolitical nature, because it means a final divorce from the moscow church.

there are several reasons why ukrainian churches decided to leave the julian calendar, firstly he astronomically inaccurate: the earth rotates around the sun 12 minutes slower than the ancient romans thought, so in 1500 years the julian calendar was 10 days behind. concerned about this, pope gregory 13 decided to reform the calendar in 1582. therefore, from october 4 , the 15th came immediately, and the new julian calendar was accordingly called the gregorian calendar. before the bolshevik coup, the russian empire. adhered to the julian calendar at a time when all of europe had long ago switched to the gregorian calendar, which the ukrainian national republic. russia did not take such a step due to religious and ideological reasons. and the orthodox church, which remained at that time the only orthodox denomination in

ukraine, also followed only the julian calendar. and it turned out that society had already switched to a new style a long time ago, and the church stuck to the old one. vitak julian calendar on... today is delayed by 13 days. since 2014, ukrainian churchmen began to actively talk about the transition to a new calendar. so, in 2017, the verkhovna rada added a non-working day on december 25 for those ukrainians who celebrate christmas according to the gregorian calendar. in december 2020 , metropolitan epiphany of kyiv noted that the orthodox church of ukraine will switch to the new calendar only when the believers themselves are ready for it. not long after this statement , his beatitude svyatoslav noted that the ukrainian greek catholic church will switch to the new calendar only from the orthodox church of ukraine. christmas should be celebrated together, er, together with your parish, together with your church,

because christmas is not a private occasion, very personal, although it has a personal dimension. christmas is a holiday for the whole people. after... russia's large-scale war against ukraine accelerated transformations in society, so the issue of transition to a new calendar acquired national and political features, as another way to get rid of the russian myth of brotherhood. therefore, from 2022 until now, many religious communities are transferring from the moscow patriarchate to the orthodox church of ukraine. the transition to the new yulia calendar was announced at the synod of the ukrainian greek catholic church. so 2023. in the orthodox church of ukraine started talking about it in may, but the final decision was made at the local council already in july. therefore, the transition to the new calendar became the decisive step that had not been taken

for decades. in general, the majority of ukrainians support the transition to the novylyan calendar. according to the survey conducted by the razumkov center, more than 80% of greek catholics and more than 60% of orthodox have a positive attitude towards this, slightly lower statistics in the eastern and southern regions of ukraine, however, even there more than half have a good attitude towards it, and even parishioners of the poskovo patriarchate are also preparing to switch to the new julian calendar, although this share is somewhat smaller. do you prefer christmas on 25 hryvnias or on january 7? not on january 7. and why, why doesn't it go to 25? well, because that's how my parents celebrated, that's how they celebrated. the children want this year, and we, our generation, will get used to it, i think that it will change someday, but it

will take time, there should be one holiday, yes, december 25, there is no second one, that's what... about christmas. transition to a new calendar this year is not yet mandatory. the ukrainian greek catholic church has given time for adaptation until 2025. the orthodox church of ukraine did not set time limits. instead, it is known that 120 orthodox parishes out of 8.5 thousand remained on the julian calendar. one such community is known in lviv. well , holiday services with the participation of greek-catholic priests. and orthodox churches will be held on december 25. despite russia's full-scale war against ukraine, our military also celebrates christmas on the front lines. and for the second year in a row, they do it on december 25. the day before, our soldiers recorded a touching video where they reminded that the transition to the new

church calendar is the right choice. this is really powerful stuff. turkey launched a military operation in northern iraq after 12 soldiers of this country were killed. the turkish army has launched military operations against representatives of the kurdistan workers' party. 13 militants have already been eliminated, the turkish military is also conducting air operations throughout the territory, the country's ministry of defense said. according to president rexep turkey will not tolerate erdogan. terrorist organizations in the north of iraq and syria. let's summarize the morning at 12 o'clock

, read more on our website espresso.tv, also on our social networks, join, set your favorites, my sports colleagues oleksandr vashchuk and andriy malinovskyi will continue, don't switch, stay with the espresso team. greetings to all, this is a football format, and ukrainians are currently celebrating the christmas holidays, and therefore the time has come to sum up the results of the season, the year that is passing, they were as beautiful as they were performances, there were disappointments, a lot of coaching resignations. and today, oleksandr vashchuk and andriy malinovskyi will do everything. andriy, congratulations. greetings sasha, greetings to all our

fans. in fact, a year goes by and it goes by so fast. it is clear that against what background we feel all this, but we still watch football, cheer for our teams. of course, number one is what is happening in our ukrainian football. it was a very busy year in ukrainian football, because this is the coach. resignations, this is probably such a leitmotif of the season, and let's go then let's move on to shakhtar, the miner had four coaches during the year, well, it's true that one coach was there for a few days, dari ostrena, but still , i definitely don't remember such an anomaly in the miner, well, in recent history, nothing like this actually happened with the miner, and that what started with the dismissal of jovichevich turned into a strangely expressive decision, not quite typical for an investor of a donetsk miner, as well as... closely monitors ukrainian

football and carefully monitors those mentors who work in ukrainian football and can analyze events, understood that jovicevych returned the miner's confidence, returned the inherent style, just typical of the donetsk miner, and the team actually believed in this mentor and looked both in europe and in the ukrainian championship. convincing enough, especially considering all the events that happened with the team, because all the legionnaires, leading football players, brazilians, left the club and headed by the head coach dederby, there, well, we remember the previous season, because dederby, who told that he the bravest mentor in world, he was the first in principle to escape from ukraine and took with him, well, he actually took the brazilians with him, then van loewen, who in principle had almost no experience of winning, especially we say in the context that... for a team that aims to win in all tournaments , that's why van lowen never won anything there

and they took him because he continued in zorya, well enough, he continued the work of vernedub from krypnyk in an original and stable way, so in principle he did not bring anything, but still zorya was enough stable on the background of our football, and they took van löwin, and in the end it is clear that he failed everything, because he could not find a common language with the team, well, and then an unexpected decision with... sulfur, the most unexpected thing is that pushych came, who no one knew before this, well, only in the netherlands and there, there, well, there are a couple of fans who have been cheering for twente there since childhood, because he happens to be a regular coach of twente, and now he is at the head of the donetsk miner, so far absolutely nothing you can say about his some style, because two matches, roughly speaking, in office the head coach at the club, who shaped the structure for ten years there. therefore, now we cannot make any decisions on a whim, but the fact that shakhtar constantly changed his

decisions is actually completely uncharacteristic of a donetsk miner, but this experiment , in principle, to a large extent, now we see that it is bearing normal fruits, well, actually, come on then we will move on to the european cups, because there was a draw, well, even before the draw, let's say this, we can say by default that shakhtar is the third place in champions league in the group, but that's how this tournament turned out. group, that well, until the last round , they fought and well, if there was a little fart there, some possible other coaching decisions there could actually win it, well, in fact here and... it is absolutely not a question for the coach, because , well, it is definitely not fluffy there, maybe you could use another coach, well, somehow you could ask, and what employee can be taken, because he never worked as a head coach, never led a team to the champions league, he even led to barcelona, ​​he in this day signs a contract and leads the shakhtar match to a match with barcelona, ​​so the sport here

is what it was, the resource that the donetsk miner had . cancesao three goals, this is already respect for donetsk shazdar, the fact that five missed, from a team that, in principle, does not score much, because it plays such a pragmatic defensive football, eh, that again the philosophy of the club, that which is inherent in the port, they have always played like this and will continue to play, so the fact that five missed and in in principle, pushych justified this, calmly saying that we lost because we conceded five, scored only three, and to a large extent yes... until the last round, shakhtar kept the whole of europe intrigued, whether he would be able to get out of such, well, a large extent group, if we talked about shakhtar there four years ago, then simple, now considering that shakhtar has changed a lot, rejuvenated, a lot of pupils are playing, then in principle, for miner there was only one rival by the teeth, this is antwerp, which miner overcame, well you know, i want to return to van leovan, because some coaching, his

the decisions were completely incomprehensible, this was miroshi's exit, after that we almost didn't see miroshi on... probably even on some video trainings, what was it, were these some agent games? well, first of all, the appointment of van lowen is surprising again, he worked in the academy as a miner, yes he is, they are friends with sergey palkin and the general director, but this does not mean that all friends can be appointed as the head coach of a club that claims not only to win in the ukrainian championship, we know that the permanent goal, declared by the club's repeated investor, it's... a victory in the champions league, and the squads change there, times change, but the ambitions still don't get smaller, that's why the appointment of van loewen himself carries with it such strange decisions, including miroshi, so in fact, who even in applications are received very rarely. let's then move on to such matters, perhaps even pleasant for the miner,

because it is very transparent and official in uefa, and you can already estimate how much shakhtar has already earned, although. he still continues to perform in the eurocups, there are achievements of ukrainian clubs in the eurocups, we have one graphics, and there it is clear that shakhtar is simply ahead of all absolutely ukrainian clubs, because he has 40 million, there are 40, 46 million, almost 47 million, the closest pursuer is zorya, which earned only 5 million although we remember there earlier, when dynamo also participated in the champions league, they also had a profit there of 30, 40 million, and now dynamo only has a million, and so on... only one point was given to dynamo in the table of coefficients, and shakhtar, on the other hand, 10. well, for me, the most important thing is precisely the points to ours tables of coefficients, because prize money is already a matter for the clubs, let them distribute as they want, and we do not know how much investors are ready to invest in the clubs, that is, it is possible for a miner to get 46 million - it is the same as for you one penny, for example,

therefore, a comparison is needed here, but the coefficients are very important, and in fact the fact that shakhtar brought as many as 10... this is very important in the context of the fact that we want to see as many of our clubs as possible in the eurocups, because we see that already here are recent years, the trend of recent years and what fewer and fewer teams in the group stage, now we only saw, watched, cheered for only two teams, these are shakhtar and zorya, although earlier we, we saw at least two teams in the group tournament of the champions league, so the most important thing here is the points in the table coefficients that shakhtar won, well, in principle, the team too... was stable during the year, but still brought six of its points to our piggy bank. we have, by the way, the table of coefficients, our guide at the moment, well , we would like to hope that by the 15th we will get places, although it is really necessary for shakhtar to make a breakthrough in the europa league and also for our rivals, norway, israel, greece, to gain ground. let's show this table of coefficients, which is there, and -

this is the 18th place, that is, 16-18, it will already mean that after a season... from ukraine there will be only one club in the champions league in the qualification, one club in the league qualification of europe and two in the conference league. it's just a drop like the last time there was in the 90s, we were constantly represented by at least two teams? well certainly, these are the consequences of what is happening now in our country, and it is certainly very difficult to cope with this pressure there as well, well , first of all, even moral and... again , financial as well, because we are talking about the outflow of very strong performers in our clubs, of course, if only that would encourage the clubs to take action. well, for such difficult things as playing our ukrainian performers, despite the fact that again our tops perform precisely in the top championships, our strongest football players, our national teams, that's why we are forced

now we have to rely on our students, so we definitely need to win these points in every match for these points, and the fact that to a large extent we failed the qualifications of dynamo kyiv, vorskla, and dnipro, who tried their best in all tournaments, but failed, therefore... and where each of the teams was close to overcoming the opponent, not the strongest, so we definitely did not finalize this qualification and we need to focus on the next season, and now we wish the miner to pass at least marcel, a to go as far as possible in this tournament called the europa league. well, there is already a well-known opponent, in february they will play against olympique marseille, 1/16 of the european league, and you already know, i am looking into the future, because... in february matches for ukrainian teams were always difficult, but if you take next season there , there will be a champions league, the group stage will be played in january, well

, for the most part, european clubs are making a new format now, and about the miner, what he told everyone last week that he should win the europa league, so we hope that your the words will become championships for the donetsk miner, and they will repeat their record of 2009, moreover, look, it echoes, in addition to the fact that there is a lot of similarity... the composition of the groups was in 2009 in the champions league, nine points are also scored, and marseille there was also on the way then , well, so was marseille, i remember that match at the donbass arena, eric gerritz was the head coach of marseille, the miner then won 2:0, there were moments for 5:0, the miner had a great form and they just tore that marcel, maybe we don't have such bright football now we will see, plus, again, it is already this winter break, when pushych will prepare the team, of course, this is how the coaching staff works there, but the coaching staff is not all those who worked before, although it is very important that there is nikalini in the club, which worked for a long time, who is actually a very strong specialist who will be able

to bring the physical team up to the level, well, pušić and stanić, plus their friend serna, the most important thing here is that they continue to be friends, unlike with jovičević, because there this pause, just vanlovenska, she did not play the best role for the club, well, the club wants again, well, we have already talked about it constantly, that shakhtar stands out with this marketing work, because they played, well, we did not understand why they play in hamburg, but they moved from poland, and they are explained by the fact that could earn more, popularize football in germany, ukrainian football, and also this tour to japan, this is also, well, this is what should be in clubs that say that we, popular in the world, in europe, at least bravo, absolutely bravo here, it's respect for a miner, plus anyway, right now... well, it's such a time that again, all the teams that play in the eurocups play abroad, so here, too , dynamo kyiv is definitely the most unpopular club from ukraine in the world, no matter how

things are going in kyiv now, it is still a brand that would also be very interesting for of any country that is more or less interested in football, we see the japanese, yes, who have never been distinguished by their football tastes there, but we see that they have met beautifully and that are actually super... fans of japan, even at donetsk shakhtar. but shakhtar did nothing, and maybe i will say that this trip was already something like preparation for the next season, if we have to play there, to finish the group stage in january, so that this break is so, you know, small and somewhere abroad , a high-quality training camp can be held with high-quality sparring opponents. well, shakhtuar has already announced that there will be a game, he will play with saudi arabia, and in saudi arabia, and in the united arab emirates. that is , the asian market will work very carefully and fruitfully there, so everything is fine with the miner in this regard, so it just has to be

an example for our other clubs, again especially popular, which see their future, because we are constantly there, so we can hear these insiders about dnipro-1 , is there the existence of a further dnipro-1, considering that the main investor is now in "prison, we don't know what will happen to zorya, the situation is also very unclear and whether this team is needed, well, which... to a large extent represents a city that has not been able to get into it for a long time, so there are certainly still clubs in ukraine, which would be interesting for the world football market and where it would be possible and popularize the country and earn money. let's try to predict like this, but last winter it was just that everyone talked about the wise 100 million. this winter, maybe some story with pike perch, the same matvienko, will shakhtar sell someone, but right now it's the off-season. well, the negotiations are proceeding smoothly, but... the fact that shakhtar now insists that he wants 35 million there, we understand that he is a raw pike perch, that is, for the ukrainian championship, he is not raw, but in the ukrainian championship, we understand which is a lot now

stars, just pr. sudakov's company and pr manager, plus he plays in shakhtar, can be much better there than other football players who represent chornomoritsy or the movement, so we understand that shakhtar is still a status club and a status pr- managers, that's why i think that no one will pay pusudakov 35, because he is not worth that kind of money now, and as for matvienko, i think that he is comfortable in shakhtar, he himself does not want to go anywhere, especially us we also see it, we understand it perfectly, a good salary. good ones conditions, he is a superstar here and nothing prevents him from developing further in shakhtar and developing shakhtar together with himself. you know, there is such a thing as statistics. statistics say that sudakov does not break the upl, there are two goals and zero assists in the first round. well, well, well, name me at least one more football player with such a pr campaign as sudakov's and now with such self-righteousness, the way he talks about himself, that is, he, well, he has changed a lot

, he... behaves well at least like a ukrainian messi, that's why i don't see them at the moment ukraine with such a pr, and with such an image, which sudakov currently has, well , there is definitely no upl, so the question here is definitely this. let's move on to the next such club , which worries all fans, well, not all, but ukrainian ones for sure, because before it was an undisputed hegemon, and the last results are the fourth place in the championship, and the beginning of this season, just dynamo fans... already joked again that we are fighting for relegation, well , according to dynamo, yes, the situation is not easy, but still, here you need to understand that the composition kyiv dynamo is not quite right now , well, it corresponds to the ambitions of the club, because we can see even donetsk shakhtar, and we understand that the miner has largely succeeded in gathering and preserving the skeleton there, that is, it is constantly being played, in kyiv dynamo it is mostly the sale of leaders, all the same, we

remember the last... there was a year or two and no such bright and strong acquisition, well, there was hope for andriy armolenko, of course, we understood that andriy armolenko, well, if he plays in asia, we understood that he it's like saying goodbye to football, that's all it is clear, that is, if he stops the championship and goes to asia, then that’s it, well , that’s the end of it, or it should be finished there in asia, but he returns to ukraine, returns for the most part, again, as a brand, andriy armolenko is definitely a brand for ukrainian football. and we saw that he played a couple of rounds there, he played a couple of matches there, well , then he took a break, well, an injury is not an injury, that ’s what it is, you know, if we understand, there is a fact that andriy ramolenko played a few matches there in the first part of the championship , protecting the colors of dynamo, and this means that he does not really want to play in the championship, in the european cups he would do well, but in the championship, in the cup of ukraine, he does not particularly want to play, this is proven by practice, that is, experience

that we see you can also say that dynamo is not a spoonful of honey, even a little more, there is such a statistic that recently came out, how many pets, rating of their own pets play in the championship, in this particular club, and dynamo simply broke this rating and confidently led there, well the first place is indisputable, there is also shakhtar and vorskla high there occupy the fifth and ninth, here you can see that 80 almost 3% of dynamos are their own pet dynamos. plays in the club , look, this is a forced measure , there has not been such a thing in dynamo for a long time, that the bet was on pets, the bet on pets is exactly a forced measure, because this is how we know that the strongest pets are always traditionally, it is the miners and in dynamo, because if they have the right of first choice, and only then other teams, other clubs go, again, if vorsla could choose earlier than dynamo, it would be possible for vorsla more performers and a better result would be, and so we understand that these academies of shakhtar and

dynamo collect the cream of football. well, that is, since childhood, well, but the fact that the bet is placed on the students precisely in this difficult time, i believe, is the most correct, the best decision, and the fact that they bet on the dynamo mentor, on oleksandr shavkovskyi, is also super decision, i.e. again against the background of the fact that the miner is betting on an obscure croatian, dynamo is betting on its own, on the legendary oleksandr shovkovskyi, the miner also has legends that could now bet on and achieve great results with them, and what is the question again. why mircha luchka was put up with for so long, i don’t think so, we have such small technical nuances, now we will fix them quickly, and i suggest just now
