congratulations, this is a column about money during the war. i start the issue with an important number. the ministry of finance attracted 5 billion dollars in december. these are grant funds and preferential financing from our international partners. among the donors: japan, the united states, the international monetary fund, norway. all these funds will be used to finance priority social expenses, the government says, in particular for salaries educators, doctors, humanitarian. needs and social protection of the population. i would like to remind you that this year ukraine attracted 42 billion dollars of external financing, and this is only to cover budget needs, and also made a record amount of borrowing within the country. but the minister of social policy , oksana zholnovich, assumed that in the absence of international financial assistance, indexation of pensions may not take place next year. however. here

, the government official assured pensioners by age, their money will come from the pension fund, it will to be supported by internal revenues within the country, in particular by taxpayers. the minister added that all increases and indexation are included in the budget, she hopes that resources will be found for this. well, let me remind you that yesterday the minister of economy, yuliya svyridenko, said that in the event of a delay in international financial aid at the beginning of the year, it is in danger. social expenses will turn out to be, in particular, pensions may be delayed. well, i have the impression that yesterday one minister said one thing, today another minister says something else, as well as with the new law on mobilization, they say that it is necessary to mobilize how much, the ministry of finance says that there is no money, but they are waiting for an answer from the ministry of defense, there is currently a kind of transfer, vasyl, from department to department, from ministry to ministry, from the hands in everyone's hands. and this thought arises that all these things

were invented not so that they were introduced, yes, but in order to collapse the rating on someone, and instead raise it for myself, or later say i will cancel it all, it will not be like that everyone is so cheery, thank you, well there still seems to be a problem of communication , which our entire government suffers from, and only now is there a certain disturbance of the population, valery pekar is quite a respectable and respected person, and i trust his data, his sources, he said that we now have 60-70% problems in... the completeness of the device, that is , in any case when the functions already do not work, as they say, you press the brake, but it does not brake, that's it, maybe with this too, i don't know what it has to do with connected in fact, but this is what people are struggling with now on board this ship, which is already caught in a storm, well, it is very bad, let's move on, employers have increased compensation for the employment of displaced persons, the total duration of financial assistance will increase from two to three months for the employment of an internally displaced person from among persons with disabilities for up to six months. therefore,

the amount of the payment itself will change, it was tied to the minimum amount, which will be uah 7,100 from january 1, and uah 800 from april 1 next year. that is, if, for example, an entrepreneur takes an internally displaced person will be entitled to compensation next year up to uah 24,000 per person, if it is a person with a disability, then up to uah 48, 48,000 for each hired employee, this is the explanation given by the ministry of economy. well, then we will talk with borys koshniruk, the head of the expert-analytical council of the ukrainian analytical center, he is in touch. good evening, mr. boris, good evening. already from yesterday. in the evening, especially on facebook , the economic community began to discuss the national income strategy, which is designed for several years ahead, in your opinion, what kind of initiative is it and is it really already the international community says that ukrainians, ukraine, let's make money

, we can't finance your needs continuously, well, i think it's not so much about that, but about the extent to which ukraine... tax legislation meets the requirements of the european union within the framework of the negotiation process that ukraine will start upon joining the european union, so i think that it is connected precisely with this, because this strategy, it, it is written in such a way that in fact it can have the absolutely opposite meaning, as in one in one version, and in another version, it is like in that, you know, soviet times. joke that a person was jailed for reciting poems, with the wrong intonation, so the same thing here, what will actually be done will depend on those people who will already be in power, i

hope, after this power, which we are forced to endure until there is a war, well, i read timofiy mylovanov's post about this national issue, i may not repeat it verbatim, but he says that you cannot raise taxes during a war, but at the same time it is necessary to raise taxes, because there is a war. indeed, to what extent does this strategy relate to the change in tax legislation and which of the entrepreneurs will it concern more? again, the question is that you cannot increase the total tax burden, because it really is. can be problematic, but at the same time , even within the existing legislation, you can improve it, firstly, and secondly, do everything in order to block opportunities for abuse, because abuse of vat administration

have not disappeared, and the errors are connected with the fact that the model of excise policy is incorrect and... for example, when taxing petroleum products, this leads to abuse and shadowing, there is a very wrong policy regarding the increase of excise taxes on tobacco products without realizing that this can provoke shadowing, it leads to the fact that in our country, these are not official, well, it is recognized, in fact, everyone has increased to 22-25%, that is, the entire turnover. 25% of our turnover is in the shadows, so taxes are not paid, so the question is what the state should do in order to collect those taxes as correctly as possible, and those at those rates, according to those procedures that exist, and what can and should be done with the procedures in order to

improve tax collection, well, for example, i have repeatedly written about the need implementation of administration. vat on the basis of the crypto-hryvnia, if everything were to start the administration of vat in a crypt in a crypt, then in fact it would be impossible to withdraw money from there, except for the budget, well, with the correct configuration of this system, of course, and then the tens of billions of hryvnias that are being stolen now, they would just go into the state budget, this is as an example of what can be done even within the existing legislation, depending on whether you are able to correctly ... you will be the model that will allow you to do this with minimization of abuses and without this corruption that we have, mr. boris, i will ask this question, if there is no promised help now, and how much time the ukrainian authorities have to make important decisions before the beginning

of some crisis phenomena, i am not saying globally, well, but with payments, with the financing of certain directions, and with filling the budget, the budget, well, of course, because somewhere when it slows down, it is obvious what should be foreseen then. and the centralization of state finances, including at the expense of local communities, is a very unpopular thing, but in principle i believe that it is permissible in wartime conditions. that the state will centralize the funds is another matter, that at the same time there can be no financing, excuse me, of series, telethons and all the other delusions that we are faced with, that is, you cannot at one time to say that there is no money, and on the other hand to embezzle it and transfer it to the region is an inefficient way, so the question here is to what extent the state will correctly conduct policy from the point of view of centralization. their effective use, because there, for example , it is stated that we spend 40 billion hryvnias on

drones, despite the fact that even here it is already said that hundreds of enterprises produce drones, this is a chaotic production of drones that are ineffective, despite the fact that it is necessary to select the best options and simply for a license to give the opportunity to make them exactly as they are the best, mass-produced at various factories. from different companies, but with the best options, then it will be scalable and will be much cheaper , secondly, it will be more effective than how we will randomly just buy drones, which then turn out to be completely ineffective, and there are actually a lot of such examples, therefore , the question here is also the extent to which the state will be able to correctly collect taxes and then correctly use the funds that it wants to accumulate, really. difficult, complicated initiative, this strategy, we will monitor how the expert environment and deputies

will clarify these points that are prescribed, thank you, borys koshniruk was in touch, the head of the expert-analytical council of the ukrainian analytical center, i thank him for certain such, well light on the rays in this document, which is essentially one of the beacons to be fulfilled by the international monetary fund, well... and i still have time, i will talk about money during the war, there are interesting news, so the implementation of the agreements with the imf continues , the cabinet of ministers changed the rules for providing financial support to businesses, it is planned to focus the 5-7-9% program exclusively on micro, small and medium-sized businesses, our ministry of finance reported. in addition, restrictions on receiving state support for entrepreneurs have been lifted, in particular for those who have re-registered on the territory under the control of ukraine, but... there is no possibility to move the facilities, that is, there is no possibility of relocation, but timely fulfills

obligations, pays loans and taxes in budget. from january 1, the cost of a driver's license will increase ninefold. it was announced in the cabinet of ministers, therefore, from the new year , the price of taking a theoretical exam will increase sharply from uah 13 to uah 250. also, the cost of taking a practical exam will increase from uah 13 to uah 420, and... with the issuance of a certificate in electronic form and assignment of numbers, it will cost uah 350 from now on. roscosmos lost 180 billion rubles, which is almost 2 billion dollars, all because of sanctions, because a number of countries refused to cooperate with the corporation of the aggressor countries. in particular, the space agency of britain and europe. this was announced by the head of the muscovy enterprise yuriy borisov. in particular, space the industry lost 80% of exports, and by the end

of 2023, roscosmos remains unprofitable. great news, i think. this was the last information from me, but a big broadcast is going on, there will be more to come, watch us. what is the russian special operation on the polish border almost 600 km. meters of the strip that connects ukraine with europe, fifty people blocked and behind them is an extensive network of agents of influence, who are they, what were their statements about ukraine before and what russian narratives are they promoting now, what is really happening on the polish border and how to unlock the corridor of life for ukraine, answers to these questions in the documentary film pro-russian operation on the polish border, the author of the film mykola knyazhytskyi carefully studied the situation, visited both sides of the border, met... with polish government officials, addressed a request to the ukrainian ministries. in the film about

the real reasons, goals, declared and hidden about the influence of the political confrontation inside poland, the reasons for the inaction of the previous government and why the situation cannot be quickly resolved by the new government about organizers of protests and real beneficiaries of the blockade. watch mykola knyazhytsko's youtube channel on the espresso tv channel. the tape can be seen this saturday , december 30 at 9:30 p.m. don't miss it. well, well, and now tell us about the cultural news of chechenin, what the molin will be talking about today, please tell us. vasyl, i congratulate you, i am joining here from a very secret place, and why it is very secret, i will tell you in a moment.

friends, i can't say where exactly i am, because i am currently... at a poetry dinner, poetry is being read by military personnel, in fact, poets who are currently serving in the army or volunteering, but different coordinates, so let it be just a place near such a christmas tree for you, well, in general, such evening poetry, they are very popular in the last two years and even before, you know, such already popular people , we have poets who even... can argue with rock stars for an audience, but here i will say that there are not many people, again for security reasons, i must note, in general , there are quite a lot of events now, well, in kyiv, at least where i happen to happen with not much a large number of people, precisely because the organizers are afraid to invite more, so today the poems were read not only from the stage

by the military, but also written down, because you understand, not everyone can come on this particular day. on some kind of vacation, and for example , artem polezhaka was recording a video, and serhiy rubinkovich, and the videos were from different positions and dugouts, and we heard explosions while the poets were recording their works for us, and there was also a lot of humorous poetry, especially predictable in artem pelezhak and but rubinkovich also wrote down what we need to forgive one's neighbor, and he forgives his neighbor, and the neighbor at the moment has them... he has them field mice, he forgives them everything, except for a chewed pack of cigars, and he cannot forgive that. undoubtedly, as at every event, cultural and non-cultural, now in ukraine, there will be an action, they will definitely donate, here donations are collected for anti-mine boots, and also here they will play a calendar called

writers in defense of ukraine, in total there are 53 pictures of military personnel . writers have already sold out almost 100 copies, to me they said that one copy cost about uah 4,000, but you see, they were almost all sold out, only a few remained, and here they will raffle off a copy of the calendar for the next year with writers, military personnel with the autograph of valery zaluzhny, and of course it will be interesting to see how much it will cost they will give, that's all i have, continue. thank you very much, lena, chuchenna, it is very important that such things happen, because poetry is always like that, you know, and it is a little something that comes from the soul, a little unconscious, that the warriors who those who have gone through this war are released, this is very important, because

these are emotions, these are experiences, this is some state of the unconscious, and this unconscious, it should reach the broad masses of society. many of them who don't know what war is, and most of us don't know what war is, actually, well war, i mean trench warfare, frontline warfare, and it's very important that these words are being heard, and obviously they should help people to feel what those feel, for whom the minimum damage is cigarettes gnawed by mice, and the maximum damage is broken dugouts, of course there is the loss of friends, wounds and so on, there is a lot of trouble, but our soldiers continue to work in this trouble. natalka didenko will tell us what the weather will be like in ukraine tomorrow, i invite her to speak, mrs. natalya, good evening, congratulations, please, congratulations to vasyl, congratulations, dear viewers, now let's talk about the weather, about the nearest synoptic perspective, new year's, about the christmas star and many other things literally in a second.

hello again everyone and i want to say that before we talk about the weather that is expected for the next day, i can't help but skip the topic, well, one of the most current festive ones at the moment, this is the topic of the christmas star, and we will talk about its origin and in general , in fact, everything related to it, so what i prepared and looked at, it is called a star or a star, eh ... a traditional attribute of the christmas rite of caroling, well, we already know that, well, a star or star was often called, for example, in boykiv region and hutsul region , a nativity scene, or rather itself. star, the bright star is connected with the birth of jesus christ, because the first, miraculous birth was announced by the star of bethlehem. similar products as well

common in other christian cultures as christmas decorations, for example, there is such a star of herngutsk. it is believed that the first moravian star was made in the 1930s in a school for boys in saxony, and the star had 110 rays. the star is one of the symbols of the folk ritual. caroling, which takes place after the holy supper or the first day of christmas after the service ends in the church, people walked with the nativity scene, with the star on the catwalks, with songs, greeted the hosts and also at the same time had an actual eight-pointed star like ours the most characteristic, goat masks and the like, and it is assumed, by the way, that walking with a star originated already in pre-christian times, others attribute it to the 18th century. century, when the students of kyiv-mohyla women went, well, then the content, the tradition spread to the villages, that ’s what is very interesting, in fact, that we always say that these are all traditions, well

, if such rituals came from the village, here is one of the options, and it is assumed, and it is possible that this is the case, that this tradition of walking with a christmas star was transferred from the city to the village, well, we continue with carol, with a nativity scene and we return to the behavior of the earth's field, let's see what this activity will be like in the near future, now for your attention the forecast chart, and you see that tomorrow, well, you can say no activity, a stable situation, just insignificant at all fluctuations, that's why we don't linger here, but move on to the weather that is expected in all of ukraine and in each region, in particular on december 29, well , we traditionally start with the western regions and now we'll see what the weather will be like there tomorrow. so, tomorrow in the western part of ukraine precipitation, which, by the way, is not expected in most regions of ukraine, the air temperature is quite high, +4 +9 in some places up to +10°. in the north of ukraine

, precipitation is also unlikely tomorrow, the air temperature will range from three to six, from 3 to 7 degrees celsius, that is, the day will be quite warm tomorrow, but windy. in the east of ukraine , there are also no significant...falls expected, well , maybe, maybe during the day in some places some light rain or sleet, now we will see the map of the east of ukraine, let's wait a little, so you can see that the weather is a little fresher in kharkiv oblast, luhansk oblast and donetsk oblast, from 2 to 4 °c, in the central part of ukraine tomorrow no precipitation is expected, the weather is expected to be dry, windy as well, possibly without stormy gusts. but still , the wind direction is south-west, and the air temperature is 3 to 6° above zero. in the southern part of ukraine , variable cloudiness will be observed tomorrow

, the air temperature, well, is traditionally higher than in other regions, but as you can see somewhere +7 +9°, in places, well, in the crimea it can be up to 10-11 and there is even a possibility of a little sun, that the sun will come out through the clouds, after all, south is south, i repeat. well, no precipitation is expected in kyiv on december 29, the air temperature will be high +5 +7°. in just one sentence , i want to say that in the future, on december 30, also in most regions of ukraine and on the 31st, precipitation is unlikely, but on january 1, in the west, in the north, in the central regions, there is a possibility of rain or sleet, so the new... year will be relatively warm, of course, and this, well, this cooling is a little more noticeable, approximately according to preliminary forecasts,

january 4-5 is expected. currently, kherson is being shelled again, there is a victim of a 90-year-old woman, she was poisoned by smoke, but what i forgot to say today. you know, in the united states of america there is hope that maybe trump will somehow not make it to the elections, at least his christmas greeting, which he published on the 25th, december 25th on the true social network, it shows his very nervous and inadequate state. donald trump, therefore, wrote that he wishes all the unnamed thugs inside the country, to rot in hell, well, there is such an expression in english, to burn in hell, there is also an expression to rot in hell. together with his ukraine, russia and other problems, where he also included electric cars, for some reason electric cars are also a problem for trump. in addition, he insulted and wrote insults against

the president of the united states. joseph biden and special counsel jack smith, called jack smith a crazy person who was out of control. smith, let me remind you, this is the person who is investigating one of the four, one of the four criminal cases that were brought against donald trump, namely the mishandling of state secrets , after he left the white house, so the fact that it affects trump, well, in one of the states he was banned from running for president, we know this story in colorado, if i'm not mistaken, so... well , we hope that maybe the republicans will offer some other candidate, not as they say, not with a less negative rating, let's be politically correct, and thanks for being with us, stick together, let's zsu, victory is possible only if we are together one by one, we will not defeat russia, i will see you tomorrow, good evening, we are from ukraine, i congratulate you, this is svoboda live on radio svoboda, we have already approached
