the beginning of the year, a large-scale action already took place in polish wroclaw, and today the ukrainian community gathered in warsaw, the capital of the republic of poland, near the european union representation. of poland our correspondent maria chernyakhivska is at the scene. maria, congratulations, i'm glad to see you , i'll tell you what the protesters who joined the ukrainians and poles are demanding, please.

what has changed is that we do not have time, we no longer have time to ask and wait for those who are at the front, who do not have time, those who are under shelling in ukraine every day do not have time, european politicians also, unfortunately, do not have time, but for some reason they still do not understand this.

such actions will take place not only in warsaw, but also planned in other large polish cities this month, in roslav, in dansk. side, so ukrainians will unite with poles and do everything possible to make ukraine's voice heard. colleagues, thank you very much, thank you very much for your work, and of course, i would like to thank our community and the polish community, who join in reminding the poles of the threats that ukraine faces today, but in general , they also face poland, in general , the european common community, so we must solve these problems together and not to play with... the hand, as they say, or moscow cards. maria chernyakhivska, our correspondent from warsaw, from the republic of poland, a rally was held near the eu representation in warsaw, where they once again reminded how important the pressure for support is today for our state the country of the aggressor. yuriy fizar is with us, the world is about ukraine, yuriy, good evening, please. good evening to you, vasyl, good evening to everyone who joined us today. the world about

ukraine bursts into this week. in particular, today i will talk about the following. in the united states of america, the shutdown of the government structures, so-called... antony blinken's shutdown about the possible metastases of the war in the middle east, and the icon with stalin in georgia, about this and other things in a moment in the world about ukraine column, were avoided. well, i'll start with this, president of the european council, charles michel , may resign early. he informed about this, answering the questions of journalists on the eve of his decision, he explained his desire to take part in the elections to the european parliament, which are scheduled for june 6, 7 and 8, 8 and 9 this year. here is a short quote from him: i have decided to take part in the european elections in 2024,

if i am elected, i will take my place, the european council can decide and name a successor, my successor by the end of june , the beginning of july, this is the end of his quote, and until thing, in the history of the european union, this happens for the first time, when the president of the european council leaves his post before the specified term. and charles michel , let me remind you, was supposed to resign, according to such a schedule, in the fall of this year, and for ukraine, it seems to me that the resignation of charles michel is possible, this is such an unexpectedly bad option, now i will explain to you why, the thing is , that after he retires, and by autumn, it will be necessary to elect a temporary chairman, who may then become the interim president. which may later become and permanent president, and

in the event that they cannot decide on the candidacy of such a president, then the european council can be headed by a european, and here in some cases i say there should be a drumbeat, in this case there should not be a drumbeat to be, the leader of hungary, viktor orbán, can lead for six months, and for us this is extreme and extreme. can be bad, so we really hope that even if charles michel wins the elections to the european parliament and becomes an mep, the european union will instantly decide on candidacy for his replacement, and here is why it can be, i mean the candidacy of viktor orbán for the position of the president of the european council can be very dangerous for us in the following information in budapest. hopes that the elections to the european parliament, which will be held this year in

many countries of the world, as well as in many global institutions, can become a turning point that will help stop the war in ukraine. the minister of foreign affairs of hungary , péter szijártó, said this on his facebook page. here is his short quote. it an opportunity to establish peace, which should finally replace the war in ukraine. no supply of weapons and senseless human sacrifices, that's why it's so dangerous, i would even say for us, and when such calls are heard from budapest, after all, it's not even a call, it's a hope that more and more eurosceptics like this will come to power in the european union , well, if viktor orban heads the european council for at least six months, it will be very... bad for us , for a country that is at war with an aggressive neighbor who treacherously attacked us, well, we will

hope, all the same, god forbid that president michel becomes a member of the european parliament, a member of the european parliament, and god forbid that they find a candidate to replace him right away, this is what the republicans and democrats in the american congress agreed on, the country's budget for 2024, in fact it's not even full budget and only the budget regarding the financing of government bodies and thus avoided the so-called shutdown, which is when there is no money for their financing. the news of such an important agreement was first announced by us president joe biden. eventually it the leader of the republicans in the house of representatives, mike johnson, and the leader of the democrats in the senate, chuck schumer, confirmed it. the agreement sets the total level of spending, which is 1.590 billion dollars in 2020. the fourth fiscal year, this includes, in particular, 886 billion for defense and 704

billion for non-defense, and apparently for ukrainians the question arises, the most important thing is whether this agreement between the democrats and the republicans will finally resolve this issue, will there be help from the congress in ukraine will there be help from congress. ukraine, which we have been waiting for so long, and it is 61 billion dollars. i will tell you right away that these two things are not connected, that is, aid to ukraine is not tied. before that, what else did the republicans and democrats agree on, but their agreement shows that both of them know what to press for, what pain points to press for their competitors and how to be able to negotiate, so for some reason i am sure that they literally, literally, very soon they will agree, you know, i'll tell you what well, it's just that the time for clarifying relations

is running out, because russia is actively using any lost time to its advantage, well, in particular, the minister of defense of sweden, if you... you will talk about it, you will talk about it, then i will keep silent, but i am leading to the point that the threats are increasing, if russia is not actively interrupted somewhere now in ukraine, then it will rear its ugly, stinking head somewhere else, and there are many points where it can rear its head, we understand this very well, i think that in the usa they also perfectly understand that time is running out the political show, and the political show, it is over for sure, well, but this time has ended, it is ending, i would say so, because... these are some such attempts to buy something for something cheaper while it continues in the united states of america, i have i mean , this is precisely the trading of military aid to ukraine, and here, for example, in an interview with the american tv channel cbs, the speaker of the house of representatives, and there is a majority of

republicans there, the speaker is also a republican, obviously mike johnson. who even represents the trump minority, said about what i would like, ultimately, all republicans would like to ask president joe biden and his administration some questions that are waiting to be answered, but let's hear mike johnson speak directly. what is the ultimate goal in ukraine, what is our strategy, what is our goal, how will we properly supervise the precious. american taxpayers' money, these are very serious questions, the answers to which will help send money to ukraine to help it in its struggle. well, i'll tell you honestly, these are the questions that really are, i guess worries americans who read the news, in the news they hear how one ukrainian businessman can steal a billion hryvnias from

foreign aid. country for us, and so mike johnson is right to ask these questions, and we probably need to correct ourselves, but i really hope, again, that this is going to be voted on in the near future, both in the senate and in the house of representatives on the allocation of this 61 billion surplus aid to ukraine. we must prepare for a prolonged confrontation that will last until, until as long as ukraine, as long as russia will continue. violate the charter of the united nations organization and the european security order, swedish foreign minister tobias björstrom said the day before during a speech at the people and defense national conference. that is why, according to him, ukraine should continue to be supported, because it is now also fighting for european freedom and

democracy. the minister's quote: strong, predictable and stable support for ukraine is also our main possibility. limit russia's freedom of action, and besides, mr bielstrom assured that his country fully supports the eu's decision to start negotiations on ukraine's membership in the european union. and a good statement, very good. the conflict in the middle east is very dangerous because it can metastasize to other countries in the region. the secretary of state of the united states of america, anthony blinken, said this during a visit to qatar, adding that the main task of the world community is precisely to prevent the war from spilling over into other parts of the region. at the same time, he added that now the united nations organization should play an active part in the process of finding ways to peacefully settle the situation. at the same time, antoni blinken praised the decision of the israeli leadership to reduce the intensity

of hostilities in the northern gaza strip, but criticized the israeli intention. ministers to evict palestinians from the region. well, now a little about donald trump. if tomorrow the appeals court does not recognize the right of the 45th president of the united states of america to have the right to immunity, then joe biden will be in trouble. about it in your own network true social was written by donald trump. quote: if i don't have immunity then... then corrupt joe won't either, and with an invasion across the border into surrendered afghanistan, not to mention the millions of dollars in foreign money sitting in his pockets, joe is ripe for crime . prosecution, this is the end of the quote. the ex-owner of the white house promised that on tuesday he will, that is, tomorrow, he will be personally present at the meeting of the appeals court in washington, to

prove that he had the right to presidential immunity and cannot be subjected to criminal prosecution. well, the prosecutors want to remove this presidential immunity from trump. i will keep a close eye on this tomorrow, most likely the information will already be under. the day after tomorrow, but you wait, because you will be the first to know about it, and a little more about donald trump, by the way, he is already actively continuing his election campaign and promises a lot, at every meeting with his supporters, he promises something, with the latter, he promised that what if he becomes the president of the united states of america in the elections in november already this year, according to the information... er, the publication bloomberg, he plans to reduce taxes for the citizens of the united states of america, to reduce. i want to remind you again, donald trump is

a representative of the republican party, although it is not even a stretch to call him a republican, well, he is not a republican, if you take it. so about taxes, democrats, they are leftists, they are socialists, they always advocate that the rich should pay more, and they always... say the poor will have to pay less, the rich should pay for them, the republicans constantly emphasize that everyone should pay the same, regardless of how much someone earns, and here trump still comes out and says that i will reduce taxes for everyone, well , i am afraid of something, vasily that after all, the next president of the united states of america with a great deal of probability can be he himself, although he will wait for... the completion of all these legal proceedings, which are not only opened against him, but are already ongoing in the united states, this is america, this is hollywood , there is always with, well, i'm fine, i won't say which

of them, who, it's just that one character seems to have already won, that's all, and then bruce willis appears and everything becomes different, so everything can be here, especially since we're great we understand how much for america, the top show is a court show, well, it just doesn't happen in america. it really is. let's go further. scandal, shock. elon musk can use, and possibly uses, not only light, but also hard drugs. this was reported by journalists of the wall street journal with reference to sources in the environment a billionaire according to published information, this is exactly how the management of several companies managed by musk explained his sometimes rather inappropriate behavior. in particular, he uses drugs, they say, at private parties where attendees... even sign non-disclosure agreements, or hand over their phones to be admitted to these parties , and people close to musk say that he sometimes behaves very strangely ,

slurs words, speaks outright nonsense and demonstratively exhibits mood swings. i don't know the wall street journal if writes, referring to sources, then apparently these sources gave him some information for this publication. they give, but when you read how elon musk writes about ukraine recently, i get the impression that he is really on some hard drugs. well i do not know. let's see. let's go further. joseph stalin on a church icon. his image was found on a fresco icon in the cathedral, the holy mother of god, in the cathedral of the georgian orthodox church in tbilisi. the press service of the patriarchate confirmed this information, but its head emphasized that... what in this everything has a different context, which he did not specify, his comment caused confusion among other clergymen, for example archpriest ilya chigladze reacted to it in this way on

facebook. quote: the only essence and purpose of the image of stalin on the icon of matrona is to spread among people the idea that stalin was a hidden person of deep faith and acted with the blessing of the holy matrona matrona, that he was a christian who walks the path with... according to the teaching of the saint, so what will happen next, but the georgian orthodox church, which is fortunate has nothing to do with the russian orthodox church, is playing with fire by displaying such icons in their churches, because, for example, the day before in the comments, i read this yesterday, rasha today, the general director of the russian russian orthodox church-propaganda tv channel rasha today. on the spas tv channel , boris karchennikov made this comment in an interview with rasha today about the christmas service of the ukrainian orthodox church, which

is actually a branch of the russian orthodox church. in the kiev-pechersk lavra on january 7, so karchivnikov literally said the following, quote: real, painted russian living kyiv is not broken, not deceived, he is not visible now , he is silent, he is intimidated, sometimes he talks, he is chased, he is tired, but he is, he is standing, he is faithful to his church and he is waiting for you, so friends, brothers, georgians, whatever please, you are such icons in yourselves... take away from your cathedrals so that there is nothing similar to this, we can say, by the way, that the suburbs of moscow are freezing now, but we can say that the real russia, well, what is it now occupied by muscovy, around moscow, it freezes, but it lives, it expects she is burning a fire, warming herself and waiting for her to be freed from the horde kremlin power, well, in principle, you can also give such a message to you, but let it freeze, well, well, that's all i have in the world

about ukraine column, that's all for today, because as i said, the week starts tomorrow and there will be much more in the following days and much more will be in our future broadcast, so don't switch. well, we thank yuri fizer krasno, and now the plot will be for your attention: the farmer zalchevska, kateryna, paid for her own kindness tarasenko, at the beginning of the russian invasion, began. to help people who fled the war to the west of ukraine. on february 22, she set up a shelter for displaced persons in a rented premises in lviv region. however , now a criminal case has been opened against the woman. details in the story of katryna oliynyk. labor exploitation and human trafficking. two residents of the shelter made such accusations against kateryna tarasenko. in 2015 , immigrant zaovchevska settled in lviv oblast. in the first days of the great war, the woman

arranged. indoor shelters for ukrainians fleeing russian shelling. this place was symbolically called the roof over the head. residents shared household duties among themselves: we cook ourselves, clean ourselves, do everything ourselves. in addition, we grew vegetables ourselves on the land of the cooperative farm, bought 100 chickens, which fed the eggs here themselves. there are four showers, there are five toilets, and we organized centralized food from the very first day. for a year and nine months, 450 ukrainians used this shelter. in june 2022 , a family from kramatorsk with two children moved here. to us came to visit in quotes, two alcoholics who lived in our shelter for no more than 5-7

days, i don't remember. how long, and for drunkenness, for fights, for quarrels they were evicted, but their children remained here, these are two girls, they were 11 and 13 years old at the time , after their parents beat my husband on june 8, we opened a criminal case, because two ribs were broken, the head was pierced, after a few months, the police closed the case about the beating of the lady's husband without explanation. at the same time, the couple from kramatorsk accused the woman of labor exploitation, the main thing the police department in the lviv region has already opened criminal proceedings in this case, security forces came to the shelter to search it. i was deprived of the opportunity to contact a lawyer, i was not allowed to call a lawyer, this is the first thing, secondly, when i felt sick, they continued to put pressure on me, they forced her to sign a protocol,

so... documents, it shocked me, you know, man in such a state to sign documents without reading them, and i was also shocked by how the documents were treated, most of the residents of the shelter, people with disabilities and due to kidney failure, they deny being forced to work, well, no one in general has forced them to walk normally , and who has prepared, who is there so that, for example, they don’t pay... according to lawyer andriy petryshyn, the truth is according to ms. kateryna, and there is also evidence there is no human trafficking. in this case, this case is falsified, i think so, it bears the sign of an order, who is the customer in this case, time will tell, most likely it is happening.
