or there are no casualties, from what i read, the passengers were evacuated, smoke started in one of the carriages, then the smoke and fire spread to other carriages and something like four or five passenger carriages were on fire, but again , shortly before eter, i read the information , then there was no talk about the victims, and already for the sixth time in ukraine, the award named after heorhiy gongadze, an award for... proper journalists, who was nominated for the award this year and who became the laureate, will be told by tetyana golunova. on the birthday of journalist heorhiy gongadze every may 21 in ukraine they present an honorary award in his name. this year, three journalists were nominated for the award: anna babinets, tetiana troshchynska and olga rudenko. the chapter awarded the award to the director of the strategic department.

you see, i read the speech because it was honest, well, i was afraid that i would forget these words, they are very strong . i don't even know how to gather my thoughts right now, my colleagues, this year's nominees, anna and olga, well, i don't know how it happened , well , because... they absolutely deserved to receive this award as well. according to the terms of the award, only members of the chapter have the right to nominate journalists to receive it and determine the winners of special awards. according to the unchanging tradition, there are nine people, including the wife of georgy gongadze, journalist myroslava gongadze. among the 30 nominees , the chapter chose three finalists and announced the winner already during the ceremony. this work is never easy. that is, every year

a different chapter, a different jury meets, but every time it is the same difficult discussion, and it is also a very difficult decision every time, because there are many worthy journalists in ukraine who really deserve this distinction. the george gungadze award is one of the main awards for professional journalists in ukraine. it was founded in 2019 by ukrainian pen in partnership with the family of heorhiy gongadze kyiv. the mogilian business school, the kmb alumni association, and the ukrainian pravda publication. she is the most prominent in ukraine, the very name of george. i would really like, you know, not to tell young journalists about kyubum georgy, but it is probably impossible, because a generation of people is growing up, and when you do it, well, you probably have to do it, but of course, that sometimes it seems that we have some names from textbooks, but george, well, it's about... he is

a person who is quite difficult to reach. during this year's award ceremony , ukrainian journalists who died due to russian aggression were also remembered. among them are alla pushkarchuk, dmytro rybakov, volodymyr myronyuk, oleksandr makhov and many others. tetyana golunova, oleksandr burlevich, espresso tv channel. well, now we will. talk to the person who won the sports amy awards in new york for the series about the shakhtar donetsk football club, this series was filmed by order of paramount+ company volodymyr mula, the director, he is in touch with us. mr. volodymyr, i congratulate you on the award, on the recognition and on the fact that you actually overcame quite powerful competitors in the fight for this award. good evening, good evening, but... let's first talk about the movie,

thanks to which it was possible to get recognition, bypass competitors and affect, first of all, the audience and those of the jury who determined who should win, what kind of work it was, what was the idea and the implementation of this idea, please, actually, to me it seems that we managed to get around because we first made a very high-quality product, and to be honest, no one believed that we could... such big competitors, because probably the biggest competition was in this category , and with whom i didn't communicate directly before the award ceremony, everyone told me, well, listen, you have very little chance, that's it, but i'm actually pleased with something else, i'm pleased that the creative team was appreciated, the idea was appreciated, you were inspired. .. which is shown in this film,

because we spent a lot of time filming in in ukraine, we filmed during 2022, then it was very, as in principle not now. that time and the fact that we managed to convey a lot of truthful information about ukraine to the world, it seems to me that this is very, very important, you know, i will just say for our viewers that in this category ukrainian-british work, you will now tell about cooperation with his british colleague alex gale, and bypassed four applicants formula-1 drive to survive, quarterback from netflix, monsterfactory from apple tv, hard nox, from hbo max, that is, the number... what companies are these, paraam plus is also a powerful company, but you know, i will ask this, tyson fury, after losing the fight to usyk, walked around the ring and said: "usyk was given the victory, so that there is a war in ukraine". and here, you know, many people can say: well, of course, the series

is good, it was shot, everything is cool, but it’s just a war in ukraine, so they took this into account, i’m not saying that it is so, i’m just saying that many may say so or think that ukrainians are so... attention because of what is here the war, but to what extent it was a struggle of the quality of the script, its editing, the director's idea, eh, and was there any such thing, well , they thought, well, after all, the war in ukraine, is it working now, or is it not working now , it's just important to understand and know, please be honest, i didn't hear any opinion after the ceremony that we were given this award because of... the fact that in ukraine, in my personal opinion, the war in ukraine helped us draw attention to the project , this is a fact, but we made this project so qualitatively, the way shakhtar football club reacted to

it, because they gave exclusive access, and in fact no film crew, not only ukrainian, but worldwide, had ever filmed a ukrainian club, and it was actually... it was very unique, because i remember the first day of shooting, when igor jovichevich introduced my film crew to the club and said, guys, you are doing your job, the crew is doing their job, so that you don't disrespect and underestimate each other, and for me personally, this is also was such a positive step, that we 're all on the same page, and we're all working toward... the end result, and how it turned out for me, i have two more quick questions: first, who came up with the idea, if this is commissioned by paramount+, who came up with the idea to do this, to do this is a movie, and the second, most likely,

the most memorable moment, or that moment in this work, where what is special for you, or what was special, maybe this not a shot, not a moment, not some interview, not some action. and any feeling connected with this, please, and when where will the ukrainian viewer be able to see it? ukrainian viewers can see this project on megogo, it is available in ukrainian, and as for whose idea it was, it was paramount executive producer pete radovych's idea, and it's actually such a cool story because he's... very good talks to dario sirna and they both started discussing this idea, to which dario said, okay, no problem, we give you access, let's get up and running quickly, but just so you understand, paramaut is a very big

structure, a very big company, where projects just physically can't be launched quickly, and then pete called in britain, he approached my british colleague...alex gale, alex called me and asked if i could start shooting this directly tomorrow, investing my own funds, and i decided to go to the guys' meeting, because i liked the idea and vision of what we want to do, and it motivated me so much that i just understood, this is my chance, i have to take it and do it this way. and as a result, actually that led to us all getting an emmy, and what struck me the most, probably the thing that struck me the most, is that there's no war weariness, there's no, you know, this

russian narrative where we're being instilled that the world is tired, what, what the world will stop supporting you, no, absolutely, i will... yesterday at the ceremony there were a lot of people who just came up, were interested in how things are going in ukraine, what is happening and what, in fact, what... what we were able to do from the stage such a high world award to once again tell the world the truth about ukraine, about ukrainians, in my opinion, this is very, very healthy and very, very important. thank you very much for, for the comment, for joining, thank you for your work and congratulations once again on the sportsami vot award for this work, we remember that miner's season, we remember how the wise man was making a fortune there, we remember the draw with real, a fairy-tale victory, as well as... a defeat against leipzig, a draw with celtic , a fairy-tale goal by a wise man, well, it's all good that ukrainians continue to gain international

recognition, and not because we have a war there, no, because we make a quality product, and this is important, and we talk about it in a language that is appreciated, understood and rewarded, this is very important, so now to yours, it was volodymyr mula, the director who won this nomination, now to yours there will be attention, now one second. now the story will come to your attention, today is the anniversary of the ex-prime minister of ukraine arseniy yatsenyuk, he is 50 years old, his premiership in the 14th-16th years disappeared into dramatic, quite difficult times in the recent history of ukraine, in fact, at crucial times, despite this, yatsenyuk's government implemented the most effective reforms during the independence of our country, as evidenced by one of the studies, yes. we will present this plot to your attention a little later,

certain moments may change in the live broadcast, i think you will understand this, now we will talk with a guest whom we were able to add to our broadcast and talk about the events in the middle east, and they are there in fact , there is a lot, it is the death of the president of iran, the future of this state, which today actually cooperates with russia in the war against ukraine, and also the issue of israel and palestine, there there are also very important topics that... and it is worth discussing, igor simevolos is in touch with us, he is the director of the center for near-trace research, mr. igor, i congratulate you, yes, i congratulate you, good evening, i would like to start, probably let's start with a conversation about iran, i won't pretend that i have a deep understanding of the situation, political and realities that exist in iran, but the death of president ibrahim raisi, and how it affects today's flights. well, social life in iran, some kind of political chessboard, if they have it, and there is something

are playing on this chessboard, what are the prospects, because yesterday i heard one expert who said, at least some breath, a breath of tiny air in the wounds, people got, but it will not give anything in the future, please, well, look, here the situation is as follows, really a position the president is not the highest position in iran, the supreme... leader is a much more important figure, he makes decisions, he consults with his advisers, they have a lot of them, but he made the decision. ibrahim raisi was a man who, who, was completely exposed supreme leader. he was a very convenient president. and the loss of such a president, well, for... a leader is a problem, especially since he was very convenient also because of the fact that he

was such a negation of negativity, all the negativity that was associated with the 21st year, well on the date of his death, one could safely transfer to his team, and inflation, and problems related to unemployment, and drought, and riots that were. in iran , destabilization, the activities of insurgent separatist groups and many, many other things, what has accumulated, that is, in in this case, raisi's death has reset it, and now any politician who wants to run for office again can come with roughly the same program that raisi came with, namely a program to reduce inflation, improve, increase jobs, lower prices and the like , and therefore, but, but there is

one problem, the problem is that the position of the president is, to a certain extent, so intermediate, and can be seen as important in the struggle for institutional reasons, the struggle for the position of the supreme leader, and the actual alichmeni. alive and may live for quite a long time, but still, 85 years old is already an age, as when, well, it is worth talking about the need to search for him. the deputy, well, that is, accept the receiver next, the next yes, and that's what we, what we are facing, around this, the conservatives will fight for these positions now, they

control the situation quite well, they control it well. council of experts, through the sieves through which possible candidates have to pass, and there are a large number of politicians who are dissatisfied, dissatisfied because they at one time were, well, let's say, disqualified by these councils, and it is clear that there can be, well , conscious or unconscious such agreements between them, still promote some... and the islamic revolutionary guard corps is one of the key institutions that holds power in irani and ensures its stability, while the corps controls the situation, we can hardly talk about any serious ones. so, changes will begin

when the leadership of the corps will be questioned for what reasons it will find itself in the situation. and when they stop controlling the main ones the resources they have as of now, of course, nothing. here, if i am not mistaken, if again i have heard from knowledgeable people that the ayatollah is a poet, and how a buyat is a poem, such an interesting position and such an interesting title, as they say, poets rule the world, yes, but do you know , what is important, scholars, scholars , there, in the same place, in the principle of veloating faqih, the title book of rupalin khameniya, khameniya, and he, on the basis of this book, on the basis of this beating, and this is the state of the righteous, here it is interesting, interesting to understand, if still finish with iran, let's stop now, will they try to find the culprits, if

there are any at all, well, except for insurmountable circumstances, and always in such a situation. circumstances that can be, like a fog, something else, well, that is , a coincidence, an unfortunate case, will they be engaged in looking for the culprits and is it promising, because in this story the most such a story, the only moment that i, let's say, maybe , can lead someone to something, when iran asked for help from the united states of america in identifying, as i understand it, the place of the fall, then washington did not find opportunities to do it, but there were many stories about the forest where the plane crashed, who was there, where he could be. what forces, in a word, there were many versions, i don't know which of them are correct, which are not, but will iran itself deal with those, the revolutionary guard corps, those people who are in power today, in order to look for who could to add to this, is it currently perceived according to the logic that is heard, according to the rhetoric that is heard now in iran, that it is just a death, it happens like that, well, if

we take into account that there were flights around representatives of the guard corps of the islamic revolution, who for... provided security, then you have to search, start with yourself, and accordingly, they are unlikely to be engaged in this, well, that's why, obviously, this story, this is again, this story is not, not that , which was at one time, happened near smolensk, so when the political blossom of poland died, until now russia does not give, let's say, materials so that it would be possible to investigate what happened to the plane. of the polish president tu-154, and another important topic, were called today for a conversation, the ambassadors in israel, the ambassadors of the three countries of the republic of ireland, the kingdom of spain, the kingdom of norway, because their, well, these are not states, these are two kingdoms, and one republic, recognized by the states, well, the states, i mean the form of government

, the republic and kingdoms, but those states, well speaking in general, they recognized the palestinian state, which is interesting, what else... the countries of the european union also aim to recognize the palestinian state and they were summoned for a conversation, please explain what is happening, to what these conversations can do lead to why these recognitions are happening, i 'm not saying there now to give an assessment, i'm talking about the fact, how it should develop, how it can affect, first of all, a hot situation, where it's hot now, i mean the confrontation on the territory of israel between israel and and hamas. well, for sure, there are already clear explanations of the representatives of these four regions of the three countries , they will really be the following. countries that recognize the palestinian state, and the explanation is very simple: according to in order to

stop this perennial bloody, bloody war between the palestinians and the israelis, it is necessary to eventually complete the process of the formation of a palestinian state, which... will live in peace and harmony with israel, and this is a key, key motive, and it seems that the norwegian minister of foreign affairs said that it was not least that they were pushed to such a decision netanyahu's policy in the occupied territories, the continuation of the development of settlements, that is, the very fact that the israelis are not going to leave this territory and are trying to build settlements as much as possible in order to create new facts on the ground, to change the ethnic composition of the population, and

all the others, in principle, this decision, this decision is not spontaneous, this decision was discussed for a long time, and all the key powers were informed about this decision, and the united states of america as well, and beberel, if i am not mistaken... one and a half months therefore spoke about the fact that at the end of may these very things will happen, i think that the israelis also knew this, but whether they hoped that it would not happen, or that somehow it would be smothered in some other way, i do not know, mr. igor, i will thank you very much for joining, thank you for your expertise comments, ihor simyvalos, the director of the center for middle eastern studies was in touch with us, we talked about topics related to the middle east, first of all, well, now there is a short pause and a psytome. come back , we have a lot of interesting, important things ahead, exclusively on the air of our channel. congratulations, friends, politklub is on the air on the espresso tv channel. the most relevant topics of the week: russia's war

which just yesterday carried out the orders of the criminal of minister zakharchenko, dependence on russian gas, the economy is in deep crisis, part of the ukrainian military went over to the side of the russians, in the same year 2014 , a large-scale reform of the armed forces began, which took place in the conditions of the armed aggression of the russian federation in crimea and donbas. on february 11, 2016 , prime minister arseniy yatsenyuk announced the transition of the armed forces to a contract form of service and the integration of the ukrainian army into in three years, the salary of the military has tripled compared to 2014. such innovations have caused a sharp increase in interest in contract service in the ranks of the armed forces, and the number of personnel increased to a quarter of a million. in addition , new types of troops, special operations forces and airborne assault troops were added to the armed forces. on july 2, 2015 , the verkhovna rada adopted the law on the national police, already on july 4

, instead of policemen, police officers went out to guard the streets of kyiv. the new police, which was recruited from all those willing to become law enforcement officers. subsequently, police officers began to appear in other cities of ukraine. new police officers underwent a several-month training course, and policemen were sent to re-certification on november 5, 2015 , a new cyber police was created as a structural unit of the national police, and within the framework of this reform , 102 single contact centers were created by 2019, and a comprehensive system was introduced. video surveillance and completely eliminated dai. on the initiative of the government of arseniy tsenyuk , an electronic system of transparent public procurement appeared. the idea of ​​the reform is to minimize the human factor during public procurement and reduce the risks of corruption. on december 25, 2015, the verkhovna rada adopted the law on public procurement, and 1 april 2016 prozoro became mandatory for

central authorities and monopolists. prozoro became the best reform according to the results of the survey of the national council of reforms. during the first four years of operation, the system saved uah 150 billion from the state budget. in addition, in october 2014 , the law of ukraine on the prevention of corruption provided for the creation of a national agency for the prevention of corruption. its function is to check the declarations of employees, to reveal the facts of corruption and abuse of office. during the work of the government of arseniy tsenyuk took place real steps towards a visa-free regime with the eu. the prime minister took part in the meeting of the eu-ukraine association council and stated that ukraine has fulfilled all its obligations to liberalize the visa regime with the european union. on march 2, 2017, the council of the european union agreed to this liberalization, the signing of the agreement on the visa-free regime of ukraine with the eu took place in strasbourg on may 17, 2017. the most important achievement of the government of arseniy tsuniuk was energy independence

from russian federation. the winter of 2015-16 passed without gas supplies from russia gazprom company. ukraine imported gas only from europe. however , russia did not like such a refusal, and gazprom obliged ukraine to buy gas on a take-or- pay basis. when ukraine refused to pay under the discriminatory agreement, gazprom sued . consideration of the case lasted almost four years, and in may 2017, the arbitration canceled the principle of bere. payment and recognized the russian gas price formula for ukraine as unfair. starting from april 2014, according to the results of the cases, naftogaz condemned gazprom for almost 4.5 billion dollars. april 10, 2016 in arseniy yatsenyuk announced in his weekly video message that he decided to withdraw the powers of the prime minister of ukraine. according to him, such a decision is caused by an artificial political crisis in the state, slowing down the process of changing

the government and united. exit from the crisis. now arseniy yatsenyuk.
