elements for detonators. in an hour and 20 minutes, the product will be ready and sent to one of the teams. armed forces to destroy the enemy. poltava engineers have been printing these and other ammunition sets for four months. the technology is not new, it is gaining widespread use in ukraine now, due to the fact that it is possible to make a lot of useful components for various things. the initiative was born a year ago, together with a friend, we developed prototypes of shanks to ammunition, printed the first batch and handed it over to the military for testing. taking into account their recommendations, the product was improved. this is already for... larger ones or for home-made shells, again, stabilization, again , volume, that is, in order to make it bigger, better and more accurate, it all starts with the development of a digital copy of the product, then the layout

through the flash drive is transferred to the printer and the work is started, the plastic is heated and welded in layers according to the specified parameters, according to the latest developments, this is a remote detonator, also made in 3d. they are very necessary for combat purposes, because they make it possible to initiate an explosion at any moment of time, that is, over any position of the enemy, from any side, with the help of an electric match they simulate an explosion that is launched through the control panel, and now this what happened was the capacitor was charged which supplied the voltage. and as a result there was a breakout. engineers have also developed a prototype of a ground drone. this is the first version of the product. it can be equipped as you like. we already have a full understanding of how it will happen, what is needed for this, that is, in principle, all

the necessary experiments have been carried out, all the calculations have been made. the only thing is to make it ready already. in the alpha version, there are five engineers in the team, each of whom deals with separate areas and a team that responds to the requests of the military, when you see it in reality and see that you can really join it and somehow help and change something, if you this is all you can do, in principle , no military sciences are needed here, it is enough to involve people who have engineering, engineering education. engineers have work experience for further developments, so they are looking for investors for further work. anna brozova, bohdan proskurov from poltava for the tv channel. for more interesting and up-to-date information, subscribe to our site espresso.tv and our social networks, search for

i wanted to ask you about your bill on the regulation of the messenger, telegram, in ukraine. you initiated this bill. please explain how dangerous this messenger is for ukraine today? well, firstly, the bill does not regulate messengers, secondly, telegram is not a messenger, thirdly, telegram is not in the bill. the proposed bill is about platforms for sharing access to information, so the signal, for example, is messenger, because it is simple transmits messages from one subscriber to another, and telegram, facebook, youtube are platforms of shared access where people can receive news, follow the news, for a creative product, so to speak, and if video platforms in our country were regulated earlier in the law on media, such as youtube, for example, then these whole series of platforms that serve both video and text were not regulated, it's a bit strange, because technology is developing and

even youtube is no longer a purely video messenger, there are also text messages and a text news feed, just as there is a video in telegram, so obviously all information dissemination platforms should be put on the same page and demanded from them the same as the law offers, the law essentially copies the european digital act, european rules. cooperation with sharing platforms , and they consist in the fact that such a company, such a social network should open a representative office either in the countries of the european union or in ukraine, respond to comments. our regulator, if they spread pornography, call for the overthrow of the ukrainian regime, oppose ukraine or degrade human dignity, then the national council has the right to turn to such messengers, or rather not messengers, platforms, you see, i got infected from you too, to such platforms, and they are obliged to take it away, in addition, they must present at the request of the national council who their owner is, media ownership in our country must be

transparent, and where their servers are located, at the expense of which they are financed, if we talk about it, telegram itself, then this network is created by citizens of russia, and the fact that in telegram vkontakte are the only networks that are allowed for use in the russian army should already be alarmed, therefore telegram should also be subject to such regulation, just as there is twitter, whatsapp or tiktok, all networks should be subject to such and such regulation , and telegram definitely too, since there is no transparent ownership in telegram, and it is a loss-making and unprofitable platform, it is not clear who is financing it to the end ... there is a lot of information in the press about what the russians are doing, then obviously those who use telegram for transfer information or for the creation of telegram channels were very worried that this could directly relate to telegram, maybe yes, maybe not, maybe telegram will respond positively, disclose its ownership and will respond to the remarks of the ukrainian authorities, as well as to the remarks of the russian authorities, because president putin directly

said that he was grateful to telegram for cooperation, and they closed more than 400 channels before the russian elections, because there is no such thing in ukraine, it can relate to politics and russian ipso, we see it directly, but may apply to other areas as well, for example, yesterday the lviv agency nggl media published a large study about how closed groups in telegram engage in teenage bullying, demand money for shooting videos in which teenagers are humiliated, and additionally money for to find out who exactly posted this video, in the comments there are advertisements for the sale of... drugs, obviously, all of this poses a real threat to both our national security and the security of the country in general, and to leave it as it is, in principle is unacceptable, and by the way, the head of the main intelligence department of the ministry of defense of ukraine, general kyrylo budanov, also spoke about the threat to national security from the telegram network, let's listen to

what he said from the point of view. of national security, this is definitely a problem, this must be understood, despite the fact that i am absolutely against oppression of freedom of speech, but well, this is already too much, that is, in our country, any person can create a channel, start announcing everything he wants on it, absolutely whatever he wants, and when they start doing something, he complains by the fact that it is the freedom of the people, but it is not the freedom of the people, it is a little different, it is called differently. mr. mykola, in may 2017 , the russian social networks vkontakte and classmates were banned in ukraine, and actually one of the creators of vkontakte is now the creator of this telegram, and as you rightly noted that in russia they praise and praise this network that

exists, and why is the reaction of ukrainians not quite adequate? during the war, when they talk about the fact that, oh my god, they want to close the telegram, and we get the news and everything else from the telegram, that is, it is the absence understanding that russians can work with this network and through this network influence, including ukrainians. well, first of all, it must be said that there was also great indignation when the national security and defense council, then without a law, by decision of the national security council, actually blocked the vkontakte network. vkontakte was also used by an extremely large number of ukrainians, but nothing switched to facebook and nothing terrible happened. in this case, we don't even suggest banning anyone, we want this network not to spread anti-ukrainian content and that the state could regulate it. there is no direct prohibition in the law, although this way of prohibition through the national security council is certainly possible. well, we have a catastrophic

situation, because 73% of ukrainians get their news from telegram. in essence, this is a monopolist, because if you have someone who... controls more than 50%, they are already monopolists, or if two people together control 75% or three of them, they are also monopolists, such anti-monopoly ukrainian legislation, this is a direct violation of anti-monopoly legislation, and the antimonopoly committee should also react to such a situation, and why do they receive this information, this messenger quickly broke into our information field thanks to pro-russian channels, well, at least the sbu calls them created by the army of the russian federation, all of them resident. and many other channels, they appeared first, wrote alleged gossip about what is happening in the president's office, who looked askance at whom, who wants to persecute whom, who stalks whom, and people generally love it. rumors without thinking about how verified and true they are, and these eyes are anonymous pro-russian telegram channels actually gathered a large audience, the ukrainian authorities decided to take advantage of this, because they

immediately bought or created a large number of ukrainian channels of anonymous millionaires, through which they often spread false information against their political competitors, and therefore they are very afraid of losing this tool , because all the tools they have left are telethon and telegram, and telegram is in the first place, and... youtube has only 16% of people get information from from youtube, if we talk about social networks, even in russia 48% of russians get information from telegram, and it is 73, despite the fact that this network was created by russians, although they say that they are in dubai, but there is no evidence that there is no russian money among the founders and that the servers are not located in russia, people do not even realize how dangerous it is, and state bodies support it, because criticizing telegram, all these ukrainian states. services, including special services, have accounts in the telegram network, ukrainian banks that collect personal information, have accounts on the telegram network, obviously the russians have access to all this information, and this is really

extremely dangerous in the conditions of war and extremely threatening, so you just have to be conscious citizens here, the network really has a convenient interface, and then we all got used to it to find out when something took off and where it landed, some of this information is true, and some is false, and there are many other ways. in some way to provide people with such important information for them, others, common platforms access, and viber, and whatsapp, and facebook, and instagram, and many others, where it is at least clear who their owners are, that they are not controlled by the russians in principle, although some of them may also obviously have certain claims, the people of this just don't realize, very often people don't care, as people don't care that we don't have enough soldiers at the front, so many people... are against mobilization, obviously the process itself looks idiotic to say the least, but we all realize , that mobilization is needed simply to protect motherland, we must also realize that

we must adhere to information security, well , with information security, in particular , the decision of youtube is connected, which at the request of the ukrainian side, in particular, the center for countering disinformation of the nsdc on the territory of ukraine , blocked the youtube project of panchenko, she is a former tv presenter. the medvedchukiv television channel of the sanctioned news one, which went outside ukraine and poured mud into ukraine itself, well, we see how cooperation, or let's say, interaction with the management or with the youtube group allows this to do, i understand that this is impossible with telegram, that is, the ukrainian side does not have such contact with those who administer the large telegram channel, and well... that approximately such a story can arise in the telegram channel, i understand that we , we can't help it in any way, am i right, they

don't respond to it, someone, some person called an official, who is unclear, says, says, let's take it into account, we'll think about how to do it and nothing happens, many call it freedom of speech, so obviously telegram does not react in this way, and this is the difference... between these messengers and telegram, especially these big western messengers, they also have a system of self-regulation if you call for international conflicts or humiliate someone , then the network itself will ban you, or citizens can go there if it offends them, such mechanisms do not exist in telegram, that is why it does not work in telegram, another network that continues to work in ukraine is the network of the russian branch... orthodox church and at the end of last week, patriarch kirill gundyaev declared that a special military operation on the territory of ukraine

is a holy war, and in fact once again blessed both putin and the russian army to kill ukrainians, explaining that russia has the right to do so, and including as a spiritual one. component of this, well, if you can call it the spiritual component of a special military operation, so-called, people's deputy yevgenia kravchuk, from the servant of the people, who was on our air, she said that the draft law on the prohibition of of russian churches in ukraine, will be adopted within a month, let's listen to what she said, the bill is already in the second reading, i hope that, well, if... in april, because in april we will obviously have the question of mobilization, then whether at the end of april or in may, will be voted on in the hall,

there is already a decision of our main committee. before the second reading, we will take into account the position of the lawyers of the verkhovna rada of the ministry of justice and make certain clarifications this week, but literally the day after tomorrow we will convene the committee and then the consideration will be in the session hall, but i am sure that by there will be 226 voices of people who understand what a threat this is. mr. mykola, why couldn't the same servants of the people find 22... 26 votes until now, realizing that this is a big threat, well , they found them, they just searched for a very long time, because i submitted my draft law on banning the activities of the russian orthodox church in to ukraine, still in 2022, and it dragged on for a very long time, then it was adopted in the first reading, finally, the government bill was adopted, not mine, but i actively worked in our committee on

humanitarian policy and... with the support of all colleagues from all factions, we have introduced very important, key provisions from my law 821 into the government draft law, i understood that the day before yesterday mrs. yevgenia spoke to you, because just today we had a committee, we made the final changes and already sent this draft bill to voting in the verkhovna rada, and i hope that we will vote now, it dragged on for a very long time, since 2002, at first no one did anything, then the president allegedly did not have this bill, instructed the national security council to prepare the bill, then the national security council... entrusted it to the state ethnopolitics service, they prepared it for a very long time, they prepared it, it was so toothless and ineffective, we improved it in committee, now it's ready for second reading, i hope it will happen quickly, but do you think, for example, that the current the ukrainian authorities about the threats posed by not solving this issue, that is, the ukrainian orthodox church.

the church headed by onuphrius did not try to condemn, or, let's say, distance himself from the russian orthodox church, after all, onuphrius still commemorates cyril among patriarchs, orthodox patriarchs, and in this way makes it clear that, in principle, everything remains in those places, only they declaratively declared that they are not part of the russian orthodox church. i think that many people understand, at least in our committee, which is headed by the representative of the servant of the people party, mykyta potoraev, and yevgenia kravchuk, who was your deputy, other representatives of this faction voted unanimously for the draft law in the second reading today, together with representatives of other factions, well, ours european solidarity, and for the future and the homeland, i know that the trust will vote for it, just not all servants understand it, in words there is quite a large pro-russian church group that defends

its interests. this church, and plus there are these groups of the former opzh, who will also oppose it, and most other politicians in the verkhovna rada understand. i think that this understanding comes gradually, because now after this last council, where gundyaev declared a holy war, and then after the situation when gundyaev obliged the churches to russia to pray for the victory of russia, that is, for the killing of ukrainians, actually blessed the war, and before... turned his church into an anti-christian sect, i think that many more people understand the need to quickly pass this bill so that it becomes law. at the very end of our conversation, mr. mykola, tell me, is there a crisis in the parliament or not? i mean with votes and in general with decision-making? yes, it is not a crisis of the parliament, it is a crisis of the majority, because the majority of deputies are from the majority, which

elected by... 250, they simply do not go and vote, recently 170 vote, and that one is even less, and they cannot pass laws without us without opposition votes, and sometimes our votes are not enough, because we take participation in meetings, they simply do not come, this is a crisis of power, it is not that the parliamentary crisis is generally a crisis of power, since the parliament can be said to have a one-party majority, and it is, it is a one-party coalition in them, and they definitely there is a crisis, and this turns into a parliamentary crisis in general. thank you, mr. myko. for you conversation, it was mykola knyazhytskyi, people's deputy of ukraine. friends, after a short break , we will return to the studio to our studio, already in the office, and not in the hideout. greetings, my name is yuriy fizar, this is an espresso exclusive. today i will talk with my interlocutor about the urgent ukrainian-american war.
