negotiations on security guarantees are also possible. bloomberg reached out to the french and german governments, but they declined to comment. the office of the president of ukraine also does not comment on his travel schedule for security reasons. on international shawarma day. russia lost another 1,090 units of its cannon fodder. and in general, from the beginning of the full-scale invasion, our defenders more than 397,00 occupiers were crushed. they went to hell on their equipment. in just one day , eight tanks, 27 armored fighting vehicles, 19 artists, 28 units were reduced to ashes. cars and special vehicles and one means of anti-aircraft defense of the enemy. in addition, our defenders shot down 30 operational-tactical uavs. the general staff reminds that the data are indicative. and to operational information from the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. 84 combat clashes took place at

the front during the day. the hottest part is in the mariinsky direction, where our defenders are repulsed 35 russian attacks. fierce battles are also ongoing on... around avdiyivka, the enemy tried to storm 29 times, unsuccessfully. in the direction of bakhmut, the defense forces repelled seven attacks by the occupiers, and three in the direction of lyman. our aircraft struck 13 areas of concentration of russians, destroyed seven reconnaissance drones. missile troops struck seven areas of enemy concentration, one artillery and one enemy air defense. for a separate platoon of unmanned aerial systems sapsan, state special transport service. these powerful soldiers are actively conducting combat operations in the donetsk direction, attacking and restraining the enemy. thanks to semi-drones, our defenders have already

destroyed a lot of russian equipment, fortifications and manpower of the aggressor. so we have a goal - to collect uah 1 million for flying weapons. it is already on the account. remember, each of your donations is important, so join in, you can see all the details on the screen. the us senate came close to approving an aid package to ukraine, israel and taiwan in the amount of more than 95 billion dollars. even in spite of the fact that in the environment of the republican party opposition among trumpists is growing. as ukrainian ambassador to the usa, oksana markarova, wrote on social networks, the senators decided to end the debate on the draft law. the decision received 66 votes, which is six votes more than the passing minimum. however, a vote in the house of representatives, which is controlled by republicans, is still ahead.

it is important that we complete the work on this bill. it's been years, maybe decades, for the senate to consider a separate bill that's perhaps as substantive. affects not only our national security, and the security of our allies, and the security of western democracy itself and our ideals. vladimir putin's invasion of ukraine has turned parts of eastern europe into war zones the likes of which we haven't seen since world war ii. anti-aircraft ammunition supplies are dangerously short . if america does not help ukraine, putin will most likely succeed, as he has repeatedly reminded us by calling on poland, hungary and slovakia to lift unilateral restrictions on the import of ukrainian grain, as the european union has already developed alternative mechanisms that will protect farmers from

a surplus of ukrainian products. he reminded that the restriction contradicts the eu's exclusive competence in trade policy and obligations under the free trade agreement with ukraine and. meanwhile, polish farmers are blocking five checkpoints on the border with ukraine. according to border guards, there are more than 1,200 trucks in queues. we will summarize the morning at 12. stay with us. an information day continues on the espresso tv channel. roman chaika and uyulyana panasiuk are in the studio. this morning we spend thanks to the fact that our armed forces have been courageously defending our country from the russian invasion for 720 days, that is why we invite you to join the gathering for our

defenders who are fighting in the orihiv region of the zaporizhzhia region. the espressoya tv channel, the iryna koval foundation, calls to join the collection of uah 1,000. we plan to buy. batteries, starlinks, binoculars, in short , a lot of things, now you see qr codes on the screens, they will also appear during the broadcast, so join, scan and send the amount. which you can for ours defenders to the front, we will report on everything on our broadcasts, our defenders will be happy with more destroyed occupiers. well, we are not alone in the studio now, we have a guest, ilyane skhodovskyi, the head of the analytical direction of the ans network. congratulations, sir. good day. well, war is always about big money and very, very big money, so we will talk about very big money, or not so big money, to begin with. it. yesterday's news that the european union did pass this, the americans are very carefully studying the legal basis of this, as from

frozen russian assets, there anyway profits are growing, how can these profits be directed directly to ukraine, then what kind of money is it and what amounts and where will it go in the budget or what? well, this amount is somewhere between 5 and 8 billion per year. and yet, yes, that's not all we need, that is, we need a lot more money to both recover and to support the budget at this point, but still some help, well, to improve our situation, and what they are going to do is actually a system of taxation through which they will withdraw these profits, which are brought by frozen russian assets, and they will transfer them through a special fund directly to the budget of ukraine, and... already there it will be disposed of depending on those needs, that is, it is not yet, let's say,

reparation, because there must be another legal procedure for reparation, the damages caused must be determined, they must be recorded, confirmed, they must accordingly also approve the procedures themselves, in which way russia will compensate for the damages inflicted in as a result of military aggression, and only then , after all these legal subtleties of legal... moments, we will be able to receive these frozen russian assets as reparations. and when it will be , that is, well, i understand, dear, we heard yesterday, but in reality the money will reach us, well, somewhere approximately, at least from three to five months, when all the necessary steps will be fully completed in order to these interests were coming, but i draw your attention to the fact that belgium has already taken the appropriate decision, since it is, well, let's say tax legislation it is in fact. each european country has its own, and accordingly it is already developing mechanisms for us as well, since

the largest number of russian assets are concentrated there, and interest for their use, for profits, profits from them will probably come in the near future. have already reacted, they say, the representative of the us state department, matthew miller, said that he welcomes such a decision and that washington will continue to work with allies in this direction, what is the likelihood that ... that the states also do something similar approve? well, let's say this, here they are generally considering the issue of transferring these frozen assets to ukraine, but this is a bit of a cunning move on the part of the united states of america, because the amount of frozen russian assets in the united states is insignificant, there is an amount of up to 10 billion dollars, for unlike the european union, where the amount is somewhere around 220 billion dollars, like... the united states can make such a decision with minimal consequences for itself,

while europe, which also has significant european companies, is still present on territories of russia, work there, and we heard these threats that in response russia may start nationalizing these assets, and therefore for the europeans it is, let's say, more difficult, but the mechanism that they came up with regarding... interest, it is for they are safe, well, we know where the key is to the box in which the money is, that is, it is, first of all, britain, london, and they are not in the european union, now separately, it is switzerland, no, the first is belgium , belgium , of course, 190 billion, yes, but with those, there is euroklim, the euroklin company, which disposes of the largest amount of frozen russian assets, well, but these are outside the jurisdiction of the eu. well, i mean their british assets, swiss bank assets, all these things,

we will have some kind of golden key on them, look, what is being discussed in the european union, you asked a question when it was clear about interest, now the question is directly about of the frozen russian assets themselves, i really like that concept, which used to be only an idea, but now it is already being outlined in a concrete mechanism, in particular, for example, that ukraine will issue the corresponding collateral bonds. frozen russian assets, the j7 countries, all countries, including great britain, the united states, canada, they all admitted that they would not transfer, would not unfreeze russian. assets, if russia does not agree to pay reparations, and as a result, this is the status quo, or you agree to reparations, in fact they will be secured in any case by these bonds that will be issued by ukraine, or simply these assets sooner or later they will move to ukraine and again perform in quality of repayment of those debts on the bonds

of ukrainian assets, that is this mechanism, the horizon of solving this within this year. it can be if there is political will, and the legal mechanisms, well, it will take several months, and they will be formalized, that is what we are betting on now, because if we are going to bet on reparations, well, believe me, if you look historically, it is usually in 10 - 15 years after the aggression, well, of course, such a story is absolutely unacceptable to us, because if the economy does not receive certain compensation, then after 15 years, it is not known that it will be possible to restore here at all, and when you said: those numbers, i immediately remembered that once for such sums there were 5-6 billion, there it was necessary to sign a whole package with the government, the imf had to promise something, and what 5-6 there were 1.2 billion, and sometimes we are charged for 300 million dollars as a tranche from the imf, so we have to do this and that, and now the imf mission is coming to us, it arrived yesterday, so

what is this about, because in principle, if these sums, which in peacetime were for... the government of ukraine and the imf, were large, now it is a trifle against the background of the use and support of the economy by our allies. all the same, cooperation with the international monetary fund, for us, is such a certain indicator of what ukraine is doing, many different international organizations and governments have established for themselves that cooperation with a specific country is possible only on the condition that this country fulfills you. for them, the imf is such a certain flag, a flag that we can continue to cooperate, and as long as we cooperate with the international monetary fund, they still, considering this year and in the situation in america regarding the allocation of budgetary support for ukraine is rather uncertain, so these funds, which are provided to us in the amount of several billions, are important to us, because for us each billion is in fact

financing all of our budget expenditures, well, the europeans still alone signals are being sent, so to speak, the eu is planning to punish chinese companies for the first time with the help of russia , bloomberg and politico also write about this, in addition to chinese companies, but also india, indian, turkish, serbian, for the fact that they help russia to circumvent sanctions and buy dual-purpose goods, but for some reason dubai is not on that list, but look, you have to understand why this campaign is taking place, they are taking an active position. regarding the supply of specific technologies and goods for the production of weapons, because if we consider what the same missile or those rockets are made of, we will see assembling from the european union, we will also see swiss, from the united states of america, there, by the way, is the largest particle, it is german, french and so on, that is, in other words,

these are certain component companies, european companies, and this is where the question arises. how should there be sanctions against them, for this they prescribed, it is usually delivered through third countries, which is a mandatory condition in the contracts currently concluded no russia, i.e. what does this mean that in the event that the products end up in a third country , then the company that bought the corresponding products european companies pays a significant fine, and i hope this will actually stop this process, well, at least it will definitely hinder, german chinese companies, they actively helped, that is, it is not a question of some minor cooperation there or they turned a blind eye there or financial monitoring did not work properly, these companies, they actively supplied technologies and actively supplied the appropriate components for the production of weapons, and that is why they get caught. because we see other signals, in particular, for example,

the largest chinese bank, it refused to service the accounts of russian... customers, and this made it quite difficult for them appropriate financial logistics, payment, now they do it through kazakhstan, and it's expenses and everything else, so in this context it's still the right step, and it's a signal that we're moving from words to action, because if we take sanctions , for example on oil, it was precisely the toothless position of the united states of america and the european union that led to the fact that for 3 months oil was sold at... much higher than the price limit of $60, it was from 75 to 80 even dollars, and this is every dollar - this is tens of billions of additional income to economy. well, for china, relations with russia are like just business, listen, there is some business there, there are a few percent, that's why they, the european union and

america, that's right, they all told them, the chinese, in principle, you can supply everything by sea with the exception of military technology, that's why in relation to this , there will be no sanctions, but there will be for military technologies, and there will be in the event that you contribute to such evasion of sanctions, which in principle... became the justification for including these companies in the sanctions list, but you also mentioned this cunning oil hook of the global south, where india is among the champions , and china caught up with it, and there was a very interesting approach, the russians had an approach, to make a gray flotilla under some wild flags and transport tankers, in india to pretend, that we are reselling our oil, well, in a word , pretending that it is not russian oil, did not work properly. in a certain way, that is, in a certain way, when sanctions were introduced last year, they worked for a few months, then it became clear that they did not

neither the european union nor the united states of america react to the presence of such a fleet and to shipping above the established limit, as a result the price immediately shot up, plus the overall world price also rose accordingly, which made it possible to sell at the price i said, further then when the united states of america imposed sanctions. this is in the months of september and october, immediately the price dropped and now fluctuates at the level of 60. in addition, there are settlement problems, india buys, but it is ready to pay only only in indian rupees, of course there they come up with schemes through chinese yuan through the dubai dollar and there drachmas, respectively, but also these countries, realizing that they facilitate the circumvention of sanctions, accordingly, these companies stop such forms. calculation, as a result, this actually leads to the restriction of exports from russia to other countries. mr. illa, we talked about the eastern direction, now about the western one, about the consequences of the blockade,

the economic consequences for both ukraine and poland, the polish border. we have leonid kostyuchenko, the president, on the phone now association of international car carriers of ukraine. mr. leonid, congratulations, glory to ukraine. good day. so, mr. leonid, we would like to ask you as a representative. which directly has economic consequences from the situation on the polish -ukrainian border, exactly what consequences are we talking about, what amounts are we talking about and what difficulties are there for the representatives of your organization, the carriers directly , the blocking of the ukrainian-polish border by polish activists brings, frankly speaking, any traffic stop of transport is a stoppage of the movement of the economy in the import-export direction. and as for, let's say, the previous strike

, which took place starting from november 6, and lasted literally two months, about 30,000 ukrainian cars were excluded from the process of import-export transportation, and this suggests that, let's say about... the parking of one car is about 350-400 € loss for one day, we can clearly calculate with you that ukrainian carriers, i am not talking only about, i am talking only about carriers, and not about the entire economy, lost almost a billion hryvnias, and this indicates that, let's say, we, on our part, as carriers in... fulfill all the obligations that are presented to us, this means the preparation of documents, we mean, let's say, a violation, not

a violation of the regime of work and rest and not a violation of the documentary crossing of the border. this is the situation, it is very unfortunate, but we are still losing, let's say, yesterday and today, from 10 o'clock , four p... and border crossings, which are the main ones, are practically blocked and our carriers , we don’t know, let’s say how long we will be waiting to pass, if we talk in numbers, today there are 1,400 cars from ukraine on the road, on the berry, on kreberne, raver ruska, about 110 from of ukraine, 1100 cars, where. there are 700 cars in usiluga , 1,200 in shegen, these are already documented, let's say cargo that must cross the border

and... move on to europe, look, we can catch up, we can sympathize, and in particular, the drivers themselves in the kilometers queue, but there is one point, even we have now repeated these shots, this had never happened before, even when you got out the eyes of putin sympathizers and eurosceptics, because there is a political component among those blockaders, they blocked, but for the first time yesterday they started doing it.. . criminal acts, i mean, unsealing cargoes and spilling, destroying ukrainian grain, and how your association will act, what you can do, it is actually also material losses and criminal actions, that is, you have to sue somewhere, how to compensate for it , submissions by lawyers to

the court of documents have already been practically completed. in yesterday's case of opening a car and unloading illegal grain, firstly, secondly, for two months since the previous strike by the poles, we have been conducting legal, let's say debates with the polish side, a law firm is working, and we will certainly issue all sanctions, we will certainly, let's say, do everything to compensate. thank you, mr. leonid, leonid kostyuchenko, a representative of the association of carriers of ukraine, was in touch with us, we continue the topic with you, and how do you measure these losses, by the way, it was said only about the losses, yes, i draw your attention to the fact that these are the losses of the carriers, we also have the direct losses of the economy itself, because these are undelivered products, this for example, if

we talk about supply. raw materials to ukraine, this means that these enterprises did not work, or worked in a limited volume, because there are no suitable raw materials to work, but here the losses, by the way, on the polish side, she, they are serious, much more, the ratio of how much the polish side loses every day and how much the ukrainian side loses is one to five, that is, for every dollar we lose in our exports, they lose $5 in imports. without supplying to ukraine and in general here we can also talk here, first of all, the position regarding our serious negative trade balance for the past year is, if i am not mistaken , 22.3 billion minus oh 26.2 billion minus and this is a very significant amount and based on the government, the national bank, and the ministry of finance, in principle, have nothing to do with this

does nothing to remedy this situation. and here, first of all, we need to consider the question of how reasonable the exchange rate, which is currently at the level of 374, is, well, it is clearly not in favor of either our producers or our exporters, then it is a question of the policy of the ministry of finance, which also leads to this. that is, there is another component that must be considered, but specifically in this situation, the accession of ukraine to the european union will take many years, it is not one year, no matter how much one would like to... it is not three years, i expect there, if we enter conditionally in 2029-2030, it will be just a very good result in order to prepare all the necessary documentation, in order for us to synchronize with our rules and regulations, but at the same time, we will have a constant problem with polish agricultural producers, firmers , so i believe that we should now consider...

the construction of new transport corridors to europe with those countries that currently do not make claims about which they do not make, because the romanians started building, and then they put forward claims , too, zaburshchyna, too, so, for example, hungary is unambiguous here, because it is one of the largest recipients of aid, aid and this aid, because agriculture was developed there , but romania... for example, we can absolutely with them to negotiate, that is, it is not a problem, there is still river transport that can be developed, and this is a significant volume of transportation, as well as slovakia, where it is also possible to develop in principle, that is, we need to expand the alternative route accordingly, understanding that this story is for a long time. yes, that's it in this case, we again recall all the folk songs about the danube.
