well, just as easily, we cooperate through the ministry of digital transformation and all relevant bodies that buy. well then, if we take your defense and technical company fredom, here is your bar for increasing the production of fprons, what is it for this year compared to last year? well, we have approximately, it is very difficult to say, we will increase ours by about 10, 10 times this year. release, these are our plans, to the extreme, we want so, and now you are also waiting for a decision with whom to sign a contract and who will will provide payment and only after that you will start ordering components? well, to put it roughly, but if you say it more broadly , you understand, that is, i personally, as a producer, expect the state to be a manager for us, that is, it should not be a regulator of what it forbids or allows, it should be.

a manager who helps me, so that she collects information from the military, can somehow analyze and give me a forecast, just what she expects from us, well, not only for today, but also in six months, after a year, because it is very important to prepare well, but you said procurement for components, that is, there are components that can be bought quickly enough, and some elements are manufactured for two or three months, and therefore... plus logistics, and therefore it is quite large the shoulder is easy to bring in and it is very important to understand what they want from us today in six months after a year. mr. vadim, thank you very much for the inclusion, for these explanations for your work for the armed forces of ukraine, and i will remind our viewers that this was the president of the drone manufacturers' association, technological forces of ukraine, chairman of the supervisory board of frydom company, vadym yunyk, therefore.

these were the main results of this wartime period, followed by more international and economic news, followed by vasyl zima on the big airwaves. good evening, we are from ukraine. thank you, mr. segiy zgurts, thank you to his guests, these were the military results of the day and ahead of us in the second hour of great etero will be the world about ukraine with yuri fizer, we will have an inclusion. with a famous entrepreneur, philanthropist and businessman, as well as money during the war with alexander morchivko and the weather with natalka didenko, we will actually learn that a really strong cold weather is coming to ukraine already this weekend. well, now news about the most important thing, briefly. the occupiers shelled kherson with artillery, wounding an 86-year-old woman. she is now in the hospital, the kherson regional prosecutor's office reports, and according to the head of the region, oleksandr prokudin, the russians killed a local resident in ivanovka as a result of shelling.

rescuers recovered the body of a man from under the rubble of one of the village houses, his identity is being established. sent for revision, the draft law on mobilization was returned to the cabinet of ministers of ukraine, said the chairman of the verkhovna rada of ukraine, ruslan stefanchuk. on his facebook page, he noted that it was a joint decision of people's deputies. well, the most interesting thing is that later information appeared that the government will hold an extraordinary meeting in order to withdraw its draft law. to the cabinet of ministers, only the logic disappears here, first the verkhovna rada sends it for finalization, the first news, and in an hour the news appears that the government will withdraw, because who withdrew it, who sent it, i think that the amount will not change as a result of changing the terms, but in any case there is a very strange discrepancy in statements and actions, the main thing is that the draft law, as far as i understand, will be finalized again in the executive branch of government. pressure on the leaders of the european union, president zelensky called for this during.

joint press conference with estonian prime minister kaya kallas and put pressure on those who promised ukraine 1 million artillery shells. he noted that the ukrainian army still has not received the full package of promised aid and that today estonia can politically promote this initiative within the framework of the european union? serious leaders, if their word is worth something, and i am sure of it, then it is necessary to fulfill it. decisions that they made themselves, and i would really like to see contracts, because sometimes yes, shell, we are used to it, we are in this war, and we know that deadlines sometimes fail our military, it is deadlines, but if we will have contracts in front of our eyes, this already gives us hope that even with a postponement, a delay, but a postponement and a delay, but nevertheless it will come on the battlefield. well, just like a million

drones must go to the battlefield, because the statements of strong leaders must really be fulfilled. the baltic tour continues, president zelenskyi arrived in order after estonia. will meet with the head of the country edgars marinkevičius. during a joint press conference, the leader of latvia announced a new package of military aid to ukraine. it will, in particular, include howitzers, ammunition, anti-tank missiles, grenades, helicopters, drones, communication devices, generators and equipment for the military. in addition rinkevich emphasized that his country will increase the joint production of drones with ukraine. latvia has taken it upon itself to lead a coalition of drones within the framework. and for me it is a great joy that now the prime minister will sign documents in the presence of the president, this is a memorandum on cooperation in the military sphere, in fact we have the opportunity to manufacture cheap drones that are very effective, and even more so,

estonia can help very actively, let me remind you that estonia is one of the it-leaders in europe, that's for sure, it was in estonia that skype was invented, in general the it industry is very developed there, so i think that we can count on something there for the sake of zelensky and orban, the head of the ministry of foreign affairs of hungary, peter szijártó, will meet with his ukrainian counterpart dmytro kuleba. on january 29 in uzhhorod, the head of the office of the president of ukraine andriy yermak will also be present there, together they want to discuss the organization of a meeting between the presidents of both countries. this was reported in the press service of the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine. they noted that the negotiations will be a continuation of the recent ones political contacts of heads of state. the 15th bodyguards of viktor yanukovych, the fugitive president, were accused of desertion, in the 14th year they fled to russia together with the then president, they told this story to the state bureau of investigation, according to their data, the military personnel

of the state security emergency department helped organize the escape of a legitimate and to his family, after which they volunteered to stay in russia to work for yanukovych. most of them received citizens after their departure. aggressor countries, which is logical in order to hide the desertion of the guards, the then management of the state guard department issued a fake order about their alleged dismissal from military service on the eve of the escape. according to the sbi materials, the management of the udo of ukraine scheduled an official inspection in 2023 and it was established that the employees of the udo left for the russian federation on february 24 in the status of military personnel. these materials were used as evidence in the case of the desertion of yanukovych's bodyguards. in the near future, the issue of applying to the investigative judge with a petition for election will be resolved preventive measure in the form of detention to the suspect. unheard of, four locals were detained in dnipro, who

kept 50 people in labor slavery. they told about it in the office of the prosecutor general of ukraine. potential victims were searched for at train stations, immigrants and the homeless were recruited. they were allegedly invited to a rehabilitation center, promised free housing, food and employment, instead, people were moved to a house with terrible living conditions and forced to work in the most difficult agricultural and construction works, of course , the perpetrators took all identity documents and phones from their victims free of charge, during the searches the law enforcement officers freed fifty victims, seized draft records, phones and cars of the organizers of this... criminal group. now officially, finland has extended the decision to close the border with russia until february 11, the ministry of internal affairs of the country reported. let me remind you that on december 14 last year , the finnish government decided to close the checkpoints on the eastern border with

by the russian federation. all because of the threat to finland's national security. according to the head of the department, marie ran-rantane , the situation will normalize only when the flow of people stops. who are trying to enter the country illegally from the territory of the russian federation. ukrainian khatiko. in the kyiv region, a family is being sought for a homeless dog. pesyk lives in the city of pereyaslav. in the summer of this year, he was rescued by construction workers who were working on one of the facilities. he wandered in sick with wires around his neck. the men cured him and sheltered him, but autumn brigade. drove, and the tails are looking for their saviors every day. every day he runs 70 km after the bus, because it is probably similar to the transport that his rescuers and construction workers used to leave. locals have already christened it hatiko. volunteers took the dog to the shelter, but he ran away again to the bus stop. animal rights activists are sure that an animal can be

loyal to another person if it feels care and affection. every day begins with prayer. for soldiers, vasyl bezruchko from kirovohrad region. during the anti-terrorist operation, he was a military chaplain, and then joined the territorial defense. currently, the father volunteers for the benefit of the army and unites dozens of people with this cause. our journalists will tell the story of khotabych, as he was called in the army. lord jesus christ, sitting god, bless and help all our soldiers of our ukraine, so that victory, peace, health and harmony may come sooner. in the blue and yellow church of oleksandrivka, a prayer for the soldiers sounds every day. father vasyl built this church in the village 15 years ago. at that time, it was the first ukrainian orthodox church in the area. church in the kyiv patriarchate, at that time, the priest recalls, the service in ukrainian surprised people,

later the number of parishioners increased so much that sometimes there was nowhere to cross oneself, he jokes. at first, they did not just come to listen to how we rule in ukrainian, but then , realizing that this is our ukrainian church and this is our language, they began to come not only themselves, but at the moment they bring their children and grandchildren, the invasion of russia into ukraine . changed people's attitude towards the church - says vasyl bezruchko. during the ato, the priest was a military man chaplain he has a number of thanks and awards from the military and volunteers for his service. in the 15th year, in the month of october, as a military chaplain at that time, he went to the city of slovyansk , donetsk region. just to help the boys, to support them, to support our then soldiers, our then defenders. and i saw all this instead. how people even change their worldview, because of his long white beard, the military

called him khotabych. i served in the 95th airborne brigade, and when i first joined them, i was a lieutenant colonel, but a lieutenant colonel to he still doesn't know how they serve there, said khotabych, and that's how yahotavych remained to this day. at the beginning of the full-scale offensive... vasyl and his son joined the teroborona, although , he says, the church forbids taking up weapons, so they were assigned to guard the objects, since the local teroborona was disbanded, the priest collects donations for the army, because we have fellow villagers, by the way, there are also many who serve, there are even three who have already died, one of them is a classmate of my son, and now father vasyl is an active volunteer. collects money for drones, for humanitarian aid, and his daughter and his wife deliver crackers,

apple pastel, fruit, warm socks to the front. the priest urges people not to get used to war , everyone should help the army, in his daily prayers he turns to michael, because the saint is considered the protector of soldiers, as well as to nicholas the miracle worker, the patron of all who are on the road. from kropyvnytskyi for the espresso tv channel. well, now we will have a conversation. i will introduce our guest, konstantin dzhevagu, entrepreneur, philanthropist, mr. konstantin, congratulations i congratulate you, vasyl, i will make such an introduction to our conversation, i will tell you why we decided to discuss it, this year the export of goods and services from ukraine is expected to grow by 9%, well, at least this is what the first deputy prime minister of ukraine stated , minister of economy yuliya sveradenko , according to her, positive developments in this direction began to take place in the last months of last year, this was facilitated by... an alternative sea corridor, the launch of the mechanism of insurance of ships against military risks and the establishment of river logistics on

danube, we will talk about it ourselves now, and the question is, in your opinion, whether there really were positive changes and shifts in the export of goods last year, what is being said, what exactly preceded this, how the blockade of the polish, well actually the slovak borders on ukrainian exporters. vasyl, thank you, in fact, these are very important, and such... today's issues, because this is our economy, these are our jobs, these are our taxes, which we collect today in ukraine, and we understand that ukrainian taxes go to armaments strength of ukraine, that is, we have money in order to provide for our military, to purchase the military equipment, equipment, and all the materials that we use every day in order to deter, firstly, some kind of enemy aggression, and secondly, to attack ourselves . to win back our territories, which are now temporarily occupied, so of course, as i said many times even before

previous broadcasts, when i was invited to comment on such economic events, i.e. 2/3 of our gross domestic product, they are exports, i.e. we produce products that after that it is exported to world markets and we get a freely convertible currency, various, euros, dollars, pounds, we all other currencies that are freely convertible to our economy, and thanks to this we pay. all expenditure parts of production, and directly wages, taxes and the rest of everything in the economy, thanks to this, in fact , all local, state, and regional budgets survive. who receive all this money, and most importantly, manufacturers are able to produce competitive products, support their workers, support science, research and development, niocr, i.e. everything that is necessary for the development of any modern developed state, so when ukraine last year most importantly developed the logistics capabilities of export

logistics through large ports, this is the greatest achievement of our ukrainian government and armed forces. .forces, of course, we would like it to happen much earlier than the second half of the 23rd year, but at least it happened in the 23rd year, in the second half, and that is very good, because we understand the military tasks that - very, believe me, it was difficult to do with serpent island in 2022 and after that with the grain corridor and after that definitely thanks to the heroic... efforts of the armed forces of ukraine, we were still able to open the logistics corridors in 2023 in the second half. i certainly wanted it to happen earlier, like all ukrainians, but it happened the way it happened and, god forbid, it happened exactly the way it did, because without these open logical logistics corridors, it would be much worse, much more difficult for our economy to survive and in the second half of the 23rd year, and

most importantly, in the 24th year, when we actually see it today there is also a delay in funding from our partners. because of the various problems there, i don't want to go into that now, because we all know what the problems are domestically in the united states today, as well as the domestic political problems in the european community. that is, vasyl, the opening of the corridor is very important for us, and promoting the development of exports is the most important thing we could do. i am saying that i would definitely like the government to behave as competently as possible, because unfortunately there are not very many competent people remained in uyada. well, or at least those who remained, at least they were listened to, because we as entrepreneurs, we as associations, we as an industry, we turn to the government, we turn to those competent, remaining government officials who would like us, for them to hear us and for them to develop, to develop logistics and all the rest of the auxiliary functions of the state in order for production to work and for

exports to be as large as possible, well, that's how you said about blocking in one sentence. it is clear that there are certain political ones moments in, well, poland, slovakia , where these blockings took place, in poland to a greater extent, but how does it significantly affect, well, if we talk about the business that you know and that you are familiar with, well, relatively speaking, we ship, or something has to go in, it didn't go in, how does it hit, i understand that there is a big business, and there is a smaller business that may not survive as a result of this, or there may be a smaller business that is affiliated with a big one somewhere there some connections in tongues, how destructive it is. connections and destroys the actual export capacity and business structure? vasyl, in fact, everyone suffers, and how when we say that supposedly small businesses can suffer, or medium and large ones do not suffer, it is not so, because when there is no big business, excuse me, there is no equipment, there are no consumables that are in such cars, in trucks

, they are brought across the border, and we have some technological napkins there, some technological engines there. some technological, i.e., consumables that are constantly consumed, expendable every month, every week, every day, and in this situation, believe me, everyone is suffering, i will give you an example , when the situation happened in taiwan with chips, almost all factories in germany and in japan stopped, because they should have produced 99.99%, all cars, but without the chip that lifts the glass , or without a chip that controls, let's say, any electronic equipment in the car, and this car could not be delivered to the final warehouse and that is, shipped to the consumer, and the entire economy of ukraine is in the same situation today, and it is not only small enterprises and not only medium ones enterprises, large enterprises suffer even more, because neither the suppliers across the border, say from western europe, nor those

small or medium-sized suppliers who cannot get something there themselves and cannot make their products can supply them with anything. .. supply them to a larger business, that is, these are all supply chains, and we know today that as deglobalization takes place in the world, when, say, many people leave the chinese market, do not want to produce there, because these supplies, and these supply chains are long, politically involved, the rest of everything, that's what we have today on a smaller scale right on the border with poland, because we have a lot of products that are imported, that are exported to... the european community, specifically to the czech republic, slovakia, hungary, poland, germany, france, any other countries, and today we can neither send there nor receive from there, so everyone suffers, it will happen as soon as possible. resolved, as soon as possible our government will take its feet in its hands and go to poland and will solve it with the new polish power, the better. in fact, it will be better for the polish government as

well, because it's all economic activity, economic activity is gdp, gross domestic product, gross domestic product, its development, it's jobs, it's development, it's welfare, it's wealth, it's taxes. and river logistics, do you see the potential for the development of these routes, what other alternative logistics routes... could ukraine develop and what does the government say, or are there any appeals to the government regarding the growth of our danube ports, is it possible to increase their bandwidth? vasyl, in fact, we should develop the most efficient, cheapest possible logistics routes, because all logistics cost a lot of money, and this is all the sub-cost and competitiveness of our products, so if we can first of all develop the railway, secondly develop ports, thirdly develop large ones. you are deep, deep ours, which can receive huge ocean boats, ocean ships, that is, we must first of all develop all this, and the government precisely for

moreover, he is elected by the people, and that is why the government receives a salary from taxpayers from the people of ukraine, so that he pays attention to this, unfortunately, as i told you, there are very few specialists left in the government, unfortunately, there are many people there incompetent, and today in the last two years in... they do not pay attention to this at all, because we need to have competitive tariffs in our huge ports, they are uncompetitive today, which means that today the cost of services in the ports of velika odessa is two times higher than in the ports of turkey and canada, one and a half times more than in the ports of the united states, the states of america, or three times higher than in china, well, how can you compete in this situation, how can you say that we can, we will export more , which is necessary for us and... the economy, when we do not have competitive logistics or payments, and i gave you an example only of the port, and the same situation in the railway, where we have a lot of things, can for 15 years we have been talking about the

need to liberalize the railways, we are already in in the 17th year, when we signed the association with the european community, until the 23rd year we had an obligation to liberalize the railway and allow private owners to transport products with their locomotives on... the ukrzaliznytsia network, that is, as it is today we, as entrepreneurs from all countries of the world, can do in germany, we can do in poland, we can do in slovakia and we can do in the czech republic, in hungary, in bulgaria, because this is all the european community, we cannot in ukraine, because we even took commitment in the 17th year, but we didn't until the last until the 23rd year, because the railroad resisted, it wanted and remains with the monopoly, and after that, when the war began, it said war, that is, they said that not in part. well, in your opinion, this is not timely, but we all tell you, as entrepreneurs, economists, that this is killing exports, it is killing our competitiveness, because it is killing

jobs in ukraine, it is killing taxes, and therefore i would like the government to look at these things, so that he looks at ports, at energy, at railways, for rolling stock, for things that can actually increase our country's exports, and when we talk about rivers, rivers are less competitive, we... can develop them, but i say, we can also transport our goods in a hot air balloon and cargo, as at one time a zeppelin carried people from germany to the united states of america on a hot air balloon, but it will be very expensive, you can transport goods on spaceships, but no one will buy them, they will be at the price of gold, all these goods, so we need the government to look at what how is it done in the world, he should have been doing it since... how he was elected since '19, he should be doing it in '19 thanks to the prime minister who rode a scooter around the cabinet, he should be doing it

is now today with another prime minister who does not ride on the zamocat, but unfortunately does not do this either and does not make the economy competitive and not fashionable, does not make it liberalized, that is, exactly what we expect today from government and from the state, because we understand that apart from ourselves, and this is now proved by the history of the occasion. nobody us may not be able to, maybe for a short period of time, but all the same, we must build a situation where we will feed ourselves and our people, and our army and all our needs for defense, development and the future of ukraine all the time. well , the changes are really not that they are ripe, the changes are overdue, but what changes should be made to the current legislation, what world practices, perhaps, ukraine could adopt to increase the share of exports. a more efficient process of exporting domestic goods. vasyl, as usual, i always say: no need to invent a forester. we just need to accept and fulfill the ukrainian obligations that

we have signed. halls at the association in 2017 , when we signed the association with the european community, we just need to do all this , and everything else will straighten out, that is, if logistics is liberalized, it will become competitive, if energy is liberalized, then it will become competitive, affordable and one that can be developed after that, and so in all spheres of life we ​​simply have to make everything that brussels demands from us, everything that the european union demands from us and what... today he says, ukraine needs in order not only to get a ticket to the european community, but also to fulfill all the conditions and after that, to we were accepted, whether it will be in the 27th year, the 37th year or the 30th year, it will depend on us and it will depend on our leadership, on the people we elect, on the people we form in the parliament, the majority in order to form a government and for this government to be competent, and to say what laws need to be adopted, yes, there are actually

a lot of them, you just need to implement those laws. which we have already adopted, after that it is just a matter of adopting all the laws that the european community, the european union and certainly our partners the united states of america together with the international monetary fund are asking us to, and are now demanding from us, because they want it, and it is us today we see, it is obvious, these people have already given us more than 100 billion dollars of aid, but they want us not to bend, so that we do not die like ukraine, they they want us to develop and build our prosperity, they want... us to simply become part of the civilized world, their world, part of the european community and live in the same way as the european union, great britain, the united states, japan, australia, so we just have to do everything that they want from us, everything that they ask us and say, please don't make up nonsense and say that ukrainians are somehow different from south koreans, or different from australians ,

or buckets we just need to be treated for these diseases and work with inspiration on the development and well-being of our country. thank you very much for joining, thank you for your professional comments. konstantin chuvagu was in touch with us, an entrepreneur, patron. and now , yuriy fizer will tell in detail about the main events that happened outside of ukraine. the white house administration supports the adoption of a law that would allow ukraine to transfer frozen russian assets worth $300 billion. this was reported by bloomberg journalists with a link on own sources and documents of the us national security council. according to publicized information, such a law would allow the us government to first legally confiscate frozen

russian assets. and then just as legally transfer them to the benefit of ukraine. at the same time , the white house intends to agree on this bill with its european allies and partners. estonia opposes the ban on giving ukraine weapons that are necessary for shelling military targets on the territory of russia. about this during a meeting with volodymyr zelenskyi in the country's president, alar karis, told tallinn. according to him, the defense forces of ukraine can slow down by shelling russian territory. or weaken the enemy's forces or protect the ukrainian people, and therefore, says the estonian leader, there simply cannot be any restrictions on the supply of weapons to the west, which ukraine needs for self-defense. the defense-industrial complex of the member states of the european union intends to produce 1 million projectiles for ukraine each year, but it is unlikely that it will be able to hand over to the defense forces as much ammunition by march 1 as

planned earlier. european commission representatives johanna berntzel and peter stano said this during the press conference. at the same time, mr. stano emphasized that the promise to supply ukraine with 1 million ammunition was a political goal, and the countries, members of the european union , did everything they could for this, supplying the defense forces with 300,000 shells. turkey, bulgaria and romania agreed on a joint fight against sea mines in the black sea. accordingly, the agreement was concluded today in istanbul by the defense representatives. departments of these three countries they emphasized that the mines pose a threat to shipping and for more effective tracking and disposal, closer coordination between the governments of turkey, bulgaria and romania is needed. at the same time , the ministers emphasized that other countries may join the newly created tripartite group in the future. hungary will not link the cancellation of the veto to the allocation of macro-financial assistance to ukraine in the amount of 50

billion is. from the budget of the european union from the conversation.
