last year, when they received it from the west partners of the patriot system. the other day, in one of the districts of kyiv, sappers neutralized a part of such a rocket that did not explode during the russian attack on january 2. in the kharkiv region, ukrainian defenders are in good spirits, despite the cold weather and reports in the british press about russia's plans for a new offensive on kharkiv, only 900 m from the nearest russian trench. the russians have been attacking kharkiv oblast since the beginning of october. ukrainian servicemen are repulsing the invaders and the enemy is not succeeding there. however, the invaders did not give up their intention to attack. ukrainian soldiers say they have gotten used to life in the trenches, surviving a second winter on the front lines with frost and snow. it's normal, they're used to ice cream, it's normal. damn kids, everything

is normal, what the fuck is going on there, we have been standing here, i repeat, for more than a year, and somehow we have already survived the winter, that is , we survived that winter, and somehow we are already used to it, we already understand that, how should it be, what for, how to hide somewhere, all completely all positions, all observation points, all strong points equipped with burghers, we have volunteers they send trench candles, that is, so that... there is no dem. the european union should form its own united army, which could play a role in maintaining peace and preventing armed conflicts, - said the minister of foreign affairs of italy, antonio tajani. and the closest european cooperation in the field of defense is a priority for the force italia party headed by him. tajani also said that the eu should have a single president, not now. a structure consisting of the president

of the european council and the president of the european commission. if we want to be peacekeepers in world, we need army, and this is a fundamental prerequisite for having an effective european foreign policy. in a world with such powerful players as the usa, china, india, russia, with crises from the middle east to the indo-pacific region, the citizens of italy, germany, france or slovenia can only be protected by what already exists, namely the european union. and each of you can support our armed forces of ukraine. we are collecting funds for a front-line car for the tankers of the offensive guard, who protect the eastern flank of the struggle for our independence. a front-line vehicle fights and rescues in off-road conditions and constant shelling, the service life of front-line vehicles is short. we need a lot of cars, and they

are needed quickly, so we invite you to join the gathering, let's put victory on the wheels together. our goal is uah 250,000. ukrainians, who continue to celebrate religious holidays according to the gregorian calendar, are celebrating christmas today . instead, this year, for the first time, ukraine officially celebrated the epiphany on january 6 according to the new julian calendar. exactly in the hutsul region this day was celebrated for the second time, like last year. our film crew also visited the vysokohirny village of kryvorivnia. so, how do the hutsuls preserve the traditions of water consecration and? men's carol, let's look further. from the very morning in the church of the nativity of the most holy theotokos in kryvorivna, the festive liturgy begins. otes ivan rybaruk invites locals and guests to the holidays in advance. this year,

the baptism in the mountain village is celebrated for the second time on january 6. consecrate the water and enjoy the performance given by the local carolers. the tradition of men's caroling in the mountains has existed since from ancient times: from small to large, boys and men take an ax in their hands, put on a horned hat and unite in so-called parties, bands... mykola zelenchuk has been caroling together with his father for two decades, he is one of the few who can use the hutsul horn and trembita. horn, too, it's a transcarpathian horn, it used to be an ox, then it was

10 meters long, but now it's 90 cm, because they had to cut it a little to make it play for hours, they teach it to ancient customs. and the smallest mykhailo enthusiastically shares his first experience and plans to continue in in the following years, my dad went, my grandfather went, well, that's how it is with us, so i also went, but i like the fact that, well , you have to go to glorify, because now there aren't many, well, adults, due to the fact that there are only people there for the war , the second yes, well, already well, well , we still have to go, there was already less to support. this year in the verkhovyna district there are twice as many carol groups, this is due to the fact that local men are defending the country at the front,

here in tyl the fellow villagers do not forget about them, everything collected during the caroling will be handed over to the army, for about 35 years, i have been going to kulniks, for 25 years i have been pruning birch trees, so we have to gather , we take young people, we involve them, because because it has to live, it won’t happen, if we miss everything, that’s it, that’s it, but this is ours , this is ours, because we live by it, as we wait for the world , like this, today is over and you are already thinking, my god, and this will go on until tomorrow, we have to go on, the children went to carol a lot, it makes me happy, soldiers on... this year they did not carol on the front lines, last year they still caroled, but many returned home, thank god, we have already caroled together with other carolers, this year we managed to collect more donations for the armed forces, this is also pleasing, people understood that this is an important matter, after the consecration of the water, the carolers say goodbye until

the next christmas, which will be celebrated on december 25, from prykarpattia, ivan haruk, volodymyr voloshchuk, espresso tv channel. what was the news at that time, you can read more on our website espresso tv, follow us on social networks and watch on youtube, and wait for the next episode at 5 p.m. at 3:10 p.m. , an informational marathon is underway on the air of the tv channel, and so is our collection for kamikaze drones for our defenders for the 93rd separate mechanized brigade of the cold ravine, who are known for their exploits, they fought for the donetsk airport. ilovaisk, for sumy oblast and kharkiv oblast, for bahmud and soledar, and now they need

our help with these qr card numbers under these qr codes, you can support them, as well as the whole of ukraine, uah 5 million should not be collected, the amount big, but if it's about kamikaji drones, then this is their cost, please join us, and we will all do a good and necessary thing in this way. well, we are adding yulia klymenko, people's deputy of ukraine, to our broadcast. mrs. julia, welcome to espresso. good day. and we will immediately ask our editors to turn up the volume a little so that we can hear you better. and let's start with you with fresh information. yesterday it became known that polish farmers are lifting the blockade, because the polish ministry of agriculture still decided to accept their conditions, promised them benefits and so on and the like. we understand that the situation on the polish-ukrainian border will not be fully resolved because of this,

because we are talking about only one checkpoint, the shagyna checkpoint, if my memory serves me correctly, so actually, ms. yuliya, how can we continue to try to influence the polish authorities to unblock our border, and eventually all checkpoints could work normally? yes, you are absolutely right, only one point was unlocked last night, er... er chechiyni, and actually they were not being blocked as much by truckers as by farmers, er, and polish farmers , i mean, and indeed, the polish government found some sort of compromise with the polish farmers, and so, as a matter of fact, it was unlocked last night, at 9:00 p.m., seems to be one of the checkpoints, but the rest remain blocked, there are huge queues of ukrainian drivers. cargo carriers, losing money every day, there is no other way out but to continue

talking to the polish authorities, and also actively to join the ukrainian authorities , which at the moment has a rather, you know, ostrich attitude, that is, it does not solve the problems in essence, uh, so, unfortunately, uh, well, poland remains for us such a big gate from europe and the cheapest and shortest logistical shoulder, therefore... this issue must continue to be resolved, otherwise we will come to the point where the agreement on the liberalization of cargo transportation will end, and strictly speaking, by this time, as far as i understand, the poles will be ready to block the borders, and strictly speaking, after this leave will return a system that is absolutely disadvantageous to us and practically impossible during wartime. mrs. yulia, we were all just looking forward to this new polish government, since then. that we actually hoped that they would very quickly solve all these blockages, all these problems,

but in fact now we see that the border blockage continues, and other organizations and so on can come after the farmers, because it is profitable for them, so today we andrii dyushitsa was spoken to, and he said that instead of going to warsaw to picket the ministry, come to the border, it is quick and effective, what can we do now, how to protect ourselves from further blocking by other blockers at the ukrainian borders? look, well, in fact, this is pandora 's box, if one can do it, then everyone can too, you understand, it is possible to secure, only if we cut back or let's say, stop such types of blockades and protests as soon as possible, we are already entering the third month of the blockade, already everyone understood that this is an effective tool both inside the country. let's say so, to demand additional rights, and outwardly, therefore, on

alas, we have already opened this pandora's box, both the poles and the ukrainians, then we will already see what german farmers announced yesterday about blocking the roads, it's good that it's not on the ukrainian border, since we don't have a border with the germans, inside the country, in the middle germany, that's why in fact this pandora's box is open and we will see only... such a snow effect, i think that the sooner both authorities, ukrainian and polish , stop this protest and blocking of borders, the less everyone else will have, let's say, the desire to do it, well actually it's a lot a dangerous situation from the point of view of both poland and ukraine. well, actually, we also understand that the poles, i don't know if they understand this or not, that the transit traffic in these two months has already been redirected to other countries, such as romania, slovakia and others, that is, the poles will lose, also

money from transit, also they will lose money from. export import, because if this situation with the blocking of the border continues, ukraine will have no other way out but to start giving up the polish imports, and it will be such, you know, a semi-trade war, i do not think that this is a good situation for the ukrainians and for the poles, who geographically and historically will remain the closest neighbors, including during the accession to the european union, so this box pandora it is necessary to try to close already half open. mrs. yulia, let's return to the issue of ukrainian agricultural products. poland wants to extend the embargo on the export of ukrainian products for an indefinite period, and we understand that, well, it has probably already arrived time for some mirror actions. in your opinion, how should the ukrainian authorities react and

can we now afford some mirror steps in order to somehow make the poles understand that the situation is necessary. to decide and it can't be like that? well, we actually have an effective tool, because imports from poland to ukraine have increased there by almost 30% over the past year and a half, so we can definitely start, let's say, to set up barriers and obstacles for polish imports, or will this become a trade war good for ukrainians and poles? no, because we will lose such actions are enough. let's say so, a significant partner in joining the european union, we also have large borders with poland, and also she always supported us and our people during the war and during, i mean during the first first months of the war, accepting many having placed ukrainians and still living there, many ukrainians still live there

, you know, such wars are already a road to nowhere , well, that is, if they start, then it does not end after six months or after... from a year, and it is already decades and political is measured in cycles, you can look at the precedents in other countries, so this is the worst that can happen, so i think that for now there is time for diplomatic conversations of beliefs and joint work, convincing poles that joint joint business and joint transit and joint economy, including in the agricultural sector , it is much more to say. it will be more profitable for everyone and for the poles, for the ukrainians, than for everyone to block exports and imports, and we will sit like this with our products, at this time other countries will make money, i think this is a road to nowhere, well, we have already not earned what we could have and lost anyway, because this blocking of the border has its consequences for our

economy, the reduction in the volume of foreign trade is estimated at 1.5 billion dollars due to... this blocking in the west of the country , what further consequences there may be, or whether there are already approximate calculations, the beginning of january , the blockade continues, contracts have not been signed, what amounts do we lose, well, economic calculations say that we will lose somewhere around 1% of gdp, if we have a situation with the borders blocked it will be like this to continue, that is, during the 24th year, we may lose... such a serious percentage of our economy, because once again i will emphasize that this is the shortest and fastest and probably the cheapest way, it is through poland, logistics and transit, but again, logistics companies, exporters, importers are not standing still, they are looking for other ways, and when opening, let's say, the expansion

of the maritime corridor, and when building roads, for example, in romania. to ukraine, the bridge, the bridge to moldova and everything else, that is, this whole one freight flow, it will be reoriented to other countries, and other countries will receive income, not the poles, that is why this is such a very strong argument when talking to the poles, it is necessary to sit down and discuss and explain what you are looking at, well, if this is the situation, you understand, if all logistics will go, for example, through romania, then export-import will also go from romania from these countries, and not from poland, because well, it will be, let's say, logically, the car goes, was loaded somewhere in romania, brought through the south of ukraine to ukraine, so i think there are many arguments that ukrainians have in order to convince the poles to stop doing this, it is simply necessary to systematically deal with it at a high level, if, well, let's say, the first persons of the state do not

recognize it as a problem, then we have what we have, that is, two months - it is so sluggish , such a sluggish process that does not lead to anything, no negotiations have any result, ms. yulia, maybe you can tell us a little more about this transport corridor, about these roads that... are now going through romania to the ukrainian border, are there any deadlines in advance, by when they can to complete the construction, and what will be the capacity, well, at the moment there is a small capacity, but again, we understand that the wider the sea corridor will be, that is, if ukrainian agricultural exports will be exported by sea, then in principle the issue of transit through... . through europe, it will disappear by itself, so for us then there is no other way out than to break through military means, sea corridors and

export them, well, export our agricultural products there, because i want to emphasize, maybe the poles will listen that this is not a question of ukraine and earnings for ukraine, this is a question of the fact that we feed 400 million people around the world, and we have to deliver this grain, because... these 400 million people simply will not eat, and will starve, and these are mainly african and asian countries, these are not very rich countries, and this is not only a question of the economy and loss of money, it is a question of our responsibility to the world for food safety, therefore blocking borders, it also leads to such food safety for many countries, and it is perceived by them countries very negatively, and russia adds fuel to... telling that ukraine is doing this absolutely deliberately with the poles and with the europeans, it wants to starve africans and asians, so it has not only

, let's say, a direct monetary dimension, it has and the big geopolitical dimension, in which you understand, hungry people always change the government, yes, this is political instability, geopolitical instability, many other things related to romania and moldova, you know that the parliament ratified... the bridge, the agreement on bridge, big there are enough bridges to moldova, which will make another junction through transit through moldova to romania, and also the romanians are making enough investments in their infrastructure to expand logistics with ukraine, it is profitable for them, they load their port of constanta, for us it is it's also profitable, since everything is in the southern part and... the southeastern part is cheaper for her to go to those borders, that's why the danube works, despite the fact that it is constantly bombed, so actually, well

, the poles are losing a serious competitive advantage, and how i said that transits and due to such constant blockages and uncertainty, many businesses and freight carriers will simply reorient themselves to those routes through romania, moldova, and poland will simply lose big. the fate of the business and the opportunities they had. mrs. yulia, we have a few more minutes with you, but i would still like to have time to discuss this issue, in particular, where to get money this year, we see that there are delays in decision-making both in the european union and in the united states, money is not going to be taken only for weapons, yes, but also where to get money for retirement, where to get money for social benefits and where to get money for compensation for destroyed housing, because they promised that people will be given compensation for destroyed housing already this year, do we have it? the budget already provides, where will we get this money from? well, it is provided for in the budget, but we understand that at the moment the budget deficit is 40, almost 42 billion dollars,

this is the money that was promised to us by our european and american partners, and which is not there, at the moment no decision has been made regarding this money, therefore , that is, it is not there, that is , we cannot count on this money, if will not be made... a decision will be made until the end of january, the beginning of february, regarding the financing of these expenses, well, that is, 42 billion, which were mainly for pensions, for social security, for the payment of compensation, well , that is, for the rear, let's put it this way, then we it will be necessary to review the budget of the 24th year and cut absolutely all expenses, which , let's say, can be secondary, that is , all the money... will go to pensions, to the salaries of the military, to weapons, to the necessary, everything else will stand on pause, another option, where to find 42 billion dollars before the end

24th year. so far there are no loans or grants from europeans and americans. unfortunately, as you can see, none of these decisions have been made yet, so the situation is very difficult. i think that from january to the middle of february, we will still be able to hold on to our money, but then we will have to sequester the budget. its review in the direction of cutting all expenses, which... let's say, are not the first , most necessary. thank you, ms. yulia, yulia klymenko, people's deputy of ukraine, for the prospects and the fact that perhaps we will have to cut expenses, despite the fact that trade with the west has such prospects, even though the poles are blocking the border. we're going for a short break, we'll be back in a few minutes, and we'll... continue
