good evening, we are from ukraine. back to the conversation, the great ether continues, and i invite oleksandr morshchevka to join me, money during the war. oleksandr, good evening, please. good evening, thank you vasyl for his words, i congratulate the audience. for the next few minutes, we are talking about the main thing - the exchange rate, as well as energy and the future harvest. how much do they plan to remove from ukrainian grain and oil fields? everything in detail in a moment. i am oleksandr morchenko, congratulations, this is a column about money during the war, and important information from partners of ukraine, international the monetary fund published a forecast for the dollar exchange rate. this year, vasyl still predicts a fall in the hryvnia, albeit a slight one, but we are essentially consumers, and we feel it, we already see in exchange offices that almost 40 hryvnias are being asked for a dollar, which was previously even in the government. did not predict,

well, on behalf of our viewers, i will ask, if it is logical, i will ask a logical question, whether this is a limit, or actually, how much it can cost, but in the future, the imf really predicted the value of the dollar in our country for seven years ahead, it really is, well i will say the term devaluation, it continues this year and will continue in the following years, well, according to the forecast of the fund's analysts, 50 hryvnias per american will be asked for at the end of... 2027, well, i'll just add, i think that the expert environment will support this opinion that recently the international monetary fund, he makes more skeptical forecasts, well, expecting the worst scenario, in my opinion, but ukrainian business, which also calculates the exchange rate for its activities, is more optimistic and says that in fact the dollar will not grow so rapidly, says the international community, is

optimistic expectations about the growth of the gross domestic product, optimistic expectations about the improvement of business activity, well, at least these are the results of the survey from the national bank. so, let's move on: ukraine will lose 8 million tons of grain and oil crops. this year's harvest was estimated by the ministry of economy at the level of 74 million tons. this is a preliminary forecast, experts say, everything depends, mostly on the weather. sown less groundnut, barley, rape, but more soybeans. earlier, the ukrainian grain association said that there were fewer farmers are sown, because there is still the problem of selling the crop, and it is also important that nowadays logistics have become more expensive and protest actions are still taking place at border points. well, just to talk about these actions, so-called protests. polish strikers plan to resume the blockade from tomorrow. in front of the korchów

krakow checkpoint, they want to let only one truck through per hour, they promise not to interfere with the movement of humanitarian, military cargo, and passenger transport, our state customs service says, the poles plan to do this until april 20. well, before of energy, the necessary repairs and inspections are not carried out at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. this was announced by petro kotin, acting chairman of the energoatom management board. he roared. that due to the lack of qualified personnel, the russians accept anyone who wants to work at the station, this is a threat to the equipment. well, indeed, the nuclear power plant needs constant inspections, according to the schedules, experts say that the international atomic energy agency is acting cautiously now in the matter of releasing the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, well of course, they say that they don't have the tools for it and can't do it in any way.

leave zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in russia. well , vasyl, indeed, i just returned from nikopol region, which is located very close to the zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant, and once again, being in this area, i observed artillery shelling, which actually happens almost every day, in nikopol, marganka, mirivska community, this is the situation, people live, people work, cities live, cities work. but constant shelling really continues from the territory of zas, well, that's it magate can't do anything, unfortunately. next, we talk about energy with an energy expert, program director of the psyche center, professor gennadiy ryabtsev joins our conversation. good evening, good evening. mr. gennadiy, well, i would like to talk about the prospects for ukrainians in relation to current, and they receive electricity for their

homes, businesses receive kilowatts for their production. why is it that in the summer they are saying that we can feel a shortage in our homes. current, why the russians are attacking critical infrastructure right now, why can we find ourselves in the middle of power outages for the summer, tell me the details, well , you already sold such forecasts, i haven’t given my forecasts yet, and you have already promised everyone hourly power outages, well, i won’t do it, but i will hear you sure, tell me what you... what optimistic, maybe scenarios do you see? well, i'm not looking at optimistic pessimistic scenarios, i'm looking at more realistic scenarios. so, according to the real scenario, now there really are big problems with the energy supply to the city

kharkiv, because there is great destruction there, unfortunately, it is not possible to protect this place, so far , from attacks by unguided anti-aircraft missiles with... 400, that is why the destruction there is significant, and the local self-government bodies are now doing everything to decentralize the energy supply and to combine small power plants into small distribution systems in order to at least reduce the duration of power outages for kharkiv residents, the difficult situation for industrialists is also quite significant. consumers in e-e kirovohrad oblast, primarily due to the high the concentration of such enterprises, as well as significant damage to the energy infrastructure in this region, and

odesa and the regions adjacent to odesa are third in terms of such a negative impact of the shelling of the russian federation. there are also problems there, although ukrenergo informs about the introduction of hourly shutdown schedules only for kharkiv, all other cities are there, either it is about emergency shutdowns during peak hours, i.e. in the evening, or it is about normal energy supply, this also applies to the absolute majority of populated areas ukraine, with the exception of... those cities, those territorial communities that are located along the front line, there from time to time after the next arrival there is a disruption of the operation of the substation, or damage is caused

to power lines, overhead power lines, and therefore energy until the time they will be allowed to do so. cannot , of course, renew the energy supply of such settlements, according to the statistics of the ministry of energy , about three hundred, as for all other regions of ukraine, then in the majority, the absolute majority of them, we can expect some, like you were called fan shutdowns, in fact, stabilization shutdowns of electrical energy. is not expected, although ukrenergo, operators of the distribution system constantly ask ukrainians to be more rational about the use of electricity from 7 to 10 p.m., that is

, please, during these hours, we do not turn on all powerful electrical appliances at once, we do it... before 7 p.m. or after 10 p.m. -th, then there won’t be, well at least until the summer consumption peak, no problems, well, of course, if we have the density of air defense, well, at least at the current level equal, but it is desirable that this air defense becomes stronger. well , due to a certain cooling, due to a certain cyclone, current consumption among businesses and ordinary consumers is now increasing, it is necessary to save, and here, mr. gennadiy, i have a question for you, well

, for example, mykhailo gonchar, as an expert on the energy market, says that it is not worth it now either to bet on... wind generation, on solar energy, but i spoke with ms. viktoria vaitsitska, she says that it makes sense, so that more is right now in the season is generating. current thanks to renewable energy sources, what is your opinion, will the generation save, well, at least in a certain season, it is live energy, live current from nature? well, here everything will depend on which regions of ukraine we are talking about, if we are talking about regions of ukraine where the weather is sunny for 300 or more days a year, then i agree with ms. victoria, but mykhailo mykhailovych... he is a very experienced person, and he says that the sun does not shine 24 hours a

day, and it shines in some regions of ukraine only 50-70 days out of 365, so in these regions, it is better to use local sources of energy, local, local sources of fuel, local fuel, and for western ukraine, where there are small rivers, then these are... small hydroelectric power stations that have been working, by the way, since soviet times, there were more than 300 such hydroelectric power stations . if we talk about poltava oblast, then why not use gas condensate, which is abundant there. if the lviv, lviv-volyn basins, dnipro zapadina, then there is a lot of thermal coal there. if we are talking about agricultural regions, please straw, biomass and biogas, if it is a landfill. solid household waste. in each region, there is a type of fuel that is mainly worth

using, creating and installing small power plants for powering territorial communities, settlements, industrial enterprises, and it is desirable that these plants could, would be able to produce not only electricity, but also heat energy, and both the transmission system operator ukrenergo and the operator call for this. oblenergo distribution system and the same mayor of kharkiv, they all say that there is no need now focus construction resources on huge facilities if they cannot be 100% air-defended. it is desirable to create and install such small cogeneration plants, combine them into distribution systems, and also join the... market of so-called auxiliary services, as well as excess energy, giving it in the case of joining

the combined energy system for its stabilization and further reliable operation . thank you for the recommendations, it is really a living energy, it exists in ukraine, in different regions , and this is important for us they restored vasyl's generation. gennadiy ryabtsev, expert on energy issues, professor was in touch with us. well, it was a good idea from mr. gennady. that each region can join such a common boiler of electricity production, the south will provide solar solar power plants from the south will provide kilowatts to our combined network, and transcarpathia will provide energy from rivers, wind generation can be in zhytomyr oblast in cooler windy regions, and that's all will support our consumption with you, this the phrase change or die, it is really very relevant during the war, well, in... the heart was such a large industrial part of the soviet union, everything was great here, hessits, well, now

the time is different, something is collapsing, we need to do something different, something new , well, that's normal, the main thing is that it's all the time, but there are options, that's the main thing, i'll thank you for watching us, but the big broadcast continues, there will still be a lot of interesting things, stay with us, and now here's an interesting one. .. and the discussion took place between major taylor green, this is a deputy from republicans and yakov doblaich, the chief rabbi of ukraine and the city of kyiv, she says: well , i will immediately translate from english to ukrainian, she says: it is anti-semitism, to combine aid to the israeli army and aid to ukrainian nazis, she writes like this about us, ukrainian nazis. yakovdoblaich answers, very wisely, there are no nazis in ukraine, he writes, but only russian russian occupation. military. russia is attacking christians in occupied ukraine, on occupied ukrainian territory.

the russian army destroyed more than 400 baptist churches. i understand that major taylor guerin is a baptist. this is the answer of a ukrainian, the chief rabbi of ukraine, a jew, a person who would definitely have to react to such a phenomenon as nazism if it were in ukraine. he very popularly clearly tells that it is enough to carry this delusion about the nazis in ukraine, who are killing christians here, some more such darkness is voiced. dear, as he is recorded on the network x, he says, everything is without problems, and it is very good that... on every platform, someone who has access and influence speaks about what is in ukraine, and thus simply refutes such accusations, as in particular from major taey grien, yes, they talked about it, now about sports news from yevhen pastokhov, let's see. the first semi-finalists

of the uefa champions league were decided on tuesday. paris saint-germain after losing 2:3 at home. beat barcelona on the road, although it was the catalans who opened the score at the start of the meeting, rafinha scored the goal. however , in the middle of the first half, barça remained in the minority after the withdrawal of ronald araujo. psg enjoyed a numerical advantage. guests scored four goals against andr terstegen. ousmane dembele and vitini each scored. kylian mbappe designed the double. the french forward entered the top ten scorers of the champions league at the age of 25. after the defeat, the leopards complained about the refereeing. with 48 goals in the eurocup, i believe that there was no need to withdraw. it's a shame, but i'm extremely proud of what i've achieved, what we have under the current conditions. when we played 11 against 11, we did very well. well, we were better than paris

saint-germain and the referee's decision was worth it us games i feel very, very happy. i think my team deserved it. we were in the game all the time and we started impressively. evidently, extraction played an important role. all together, and the fact that we played most of the match against a team operating in the minority. you need to know how to play in such cases and avoid mistakes. i think that the result is fair. for a ticket to the final , paris saint-germain will play against... borussia dortmund. it was the german team that became the second semi-finalist of the champions league the day before. borussia on its own field took revenge against atletico madrid for the defeat in the first match of the duel. the hosts managed to score against matrasniki four times, and the madrid team responded with two goals. the total score for the sum of the two matches is 5:4 in favor of bumblebees.

two more participants of the semi-finals will be decided today. manchester city will play against madrid with the support of their native stands. a real spectacle took place at santiago bernabéu a week ago. the teams scored six goals and did not decide the winner. the current holder of the champions cup has only a slight advantage due to the home field factor. however, real seems to be almost the only team in the tournament capable of stopping the city. in wednesday's other match , bayern munich host london arsenal. the teams' first game in london ended in a 2:2 draw. both quarter-final matches will start. kyiv time. kyiv dynamo continues to pursue shakhtar donetsk. kyiv won three points in the postponed match of the 16th round of the championship of ukraine, beating minai. oleksandr shovkovskyi's wards quickly took the lead thanks to vitaliy buyalskyi's goal. more before the break, dynamo doubled their lead after dmytro nemcheninov's own goal. in the second half

, minaj responded with a goal by timur korablin, but wingerd put an end to the match. dynamo nazar voloshyn 3:1 in favor of the white-blue team. well, thank you for being with us with veliky ater, i’m not saying goodbye yet, because matalka, well, i’m saying goodbye, natalka didenko, literally a blizzard will talk about what the weather will be like in ukraine tomorrow, at 20 o’clock serhii rudenko, meet , be from espresso, take care and let this evening be good for you. mrs. natalya, good evening, please, you have the floor. congratulations, vasyl, congratulations. our viewers, now let's talk about rain, about snow, in a word about all kinds of interesting synoptic things, and not only, literally in a second, cyclones and atmospheric fronts came to ukraine, rain increased, decreased, not everywhere, which is true, but in many regions of ukraine

temperature and we will start our meeting today by talking about rain. uh, which one, what is it like and especially what gradation, because we very often hear there strong, moderate or small, so we will remember together and let's figure it out, someone knows what rain is and how to call it correctly from a meteorological point of view, so ee rain ee is small, of course, it is from zero whole to 3 mm, well, what is 0, i will explain to you later, moderate rain is ... 4 to 14 mm, significant rain - this is already a dangerous phenomenon from 15 to 49 mm, here are these millimeters, it is calculated for 12 hours, that is, during the night or during the day. in half a day there is a term heavy downpour - it is when it falls from 30 to 49 mm in a period of one hour or less, this is already a spontaneous phenomenon and it can already be normal

very dangerous with all kinds of consequences. precipitation. rain is measured using a rain gauge or rain gauge, which consists of a rain gauge or rain gauge bucket into which the precipitation actually falls. then these precipitations are poured into a special glass, in which there is a designation of the amount of precipitation precisely in millimeters. i told you about eyes 0.0, well, logically, it 's like nothing, in fact, of course, it's rain, and sometimes this statistic 0.0, also called rain tracks, and it helps the forecaster, this is just the case, when we sometimes hear insignificant precipitation, that is, there are traces of rain, therefore all the same, here is a narrowing of insignificant or completely weak rain, and the forecast comes true, well, about the rains, what they will be and whether they will be the nearest... we will talk with you, of course, and now we will move on to our next sub-heading, magnetic storms, and for your attention now, as always, the forecast chart, and from it you can see that tomorrow

the activation of the earth's magnetic field is expected, magnetic storms, especially as you can see, at night and in the morning, so please, who reacts to such a strong magnetic activity, take it into consideration and engage in some wise, of course, reasonable prevention. well, let's move on to the actual weather forecast and traditionally start with the western regions, so the next day in the western regions of ukraine on april 18 it will be cold, from 9 to 12°c, in the carpathians it will be even colder, it will rain, and snow and sleet will fall in the carpathians. dear drivers, try all the same and tourists, especially for now, to refrain from any long-distance trips or hikes in the mountains. in the north of ukraine, tomorrow too. the weather - i would say uncomfortable, it will be very cold, as much as possible only 6-8° of heat, a little warmer in sumy oblast, as you can see, but not just rainy weather is also expected, there may be

heavy rains in the north tomorrow, the wishes are the same as for those traveling in the western regions, i.e. motorists especially, be very attentive and careful. in the east of ukraine tomorrow, not just warm weather will hold, but very warm weather, as you can see, from 22 to 26°, there without... significant precipitation and even the sun will peek out in some places, in the central part of ukraine, tomorrow - rain is expected, on vinnytsia can be strong in cherkasy rains, the air temperature is very varied, you can see that, for example, in dnipropetrovsk oblast , the real summer is still delayed, in cherkasy oblast, vinnytsia oblast it will be much colder. in the southern part of ukraine tomorrow, in fact , the most comfortable weather, because there, as you can see, from... 24-25°, no precipitation is expected, well, odesa will be cloudy, and there is a chance of rain. well , the weather in kyiv tomorrow, i would say in such a non-scientific

term, is uncomfortable, because tomorrow it will be very cold, the maximum is only +7°, it will rain and in the capital tomorrow even a strong one is possible heavy rain, so of course appropriate clothes, dress very warmly tomorrow, don't forget umbrellas and drivers. turn off the headlights literally in one or two sentences i will say, it is impossible to say about extremely important information. on the night of april 19 , frost is expected in the west of ukraine, and on the night of april 20, frost is expected in most regions of ukraine, except for the south. please take note of this very important forecast, and of course, always keep an eye out for updated forecasts on the espresso channel. good evening, we are with you. greetings to our viewers,

today in the espresso studio with you, i am artem logutenko, and we now have an extremely interesting guest who joins us from the hospital, why from the hospital, i will tell you later, this is volodymyr nikulin, a police officer, lieutenant colonel of the police, deputy head of the main department of the national police in the donetsk region and part-time protagonist of the documentary 20 days in mariupol. mr. volodymyr, i congratulate you. i greet you, i greet the audience. mr. volodymyr, from my experience as an investigative journalist, i can to say that the police do not really like to communicate with journalists. how did it happen that you became the main character of a journalistic documentary film, please tell me about it, well... first of all, i

believe that i am not the main character of this film, the main character is the people of mariupol, these are our defenders, these are our courageous soldiers, they are policemen, and the main characters are journalists, what kind of task are you, well, if i was near them, i am very glad, i helped something at that time, so, well, i don't consider myself the main character. mr. volodymyr, please explain please, tell us about your experience, about those terrible 20 days in mariupol, how it all started, how journalists attacked you, how you even managed to leave there, well, this is a story that is almost relevant. who wears the epaulettes of

all our defenders, that this story began for me on the morning of february 24, when our relative aggression began, when all the people, all the military, police, all other services that are the defenders of our country rose up against me , the war began. on the night of february 24, 22nd year, i cannot say that there was such an experience of such a war i can, although the war for us did not start in 22nd year, for the donetsk police, at that time , the war started in 2014, so i have some experience of working during that time. we have already

had a war, then, i believe, there has not been such a war on our continent, in europe since the second world war, so to say that we were also ready, yes, we were preparing, yes, we had experience, i believe that we met this war on the alert, but we could not expect that it was such a war... in any case, i think that journalists, now i can to call my friends, and i found myself nearby, well , not by accident, not by accident, i understood that the great power of journalistic work, the great power of the truth during such events in our

country, it is great... the power of the truth can help us in our struggle and in our war , that's why when i saw them at the scene of a terrible crime by the russians, when they had already during the hostilities asked for a full-scale bomb attack, i turned to them, introduced myself, said that i was from the regional police, offered help , and we understood each other from the first time. you can say, looks, i turned i will quote, i promised our help, only later, when i was in other places, i am a singer with all of them said that during such events, during such a war, the survival of journalists depends on the military and

police. well, one can say that journalists cannot survive in such conditions without the help provided by the military, police or other special units, this was already my words confirmed by the words of those journalists, so it happened that they did a great thing and i... mr. volodymyr, and to leave mariupol, as far as i know, you had to cross 15 checkpoints of the russian occupiers, how did it happen, tell us about your experience. yes, at that time, at that time, 15 of these should have passed.
