work on the part of the ukrainian parliament, the ukrainian government, a system must be built, then we will see the result, and what ms. iryna said is very important at the local level, and i, to be honest, it is still not incomprehensible to me why certain communities allocate huge funds there for capital repairs, for facades, for sidewalks, for asphalts, and the government is not even able to solve these issues, moreover, dear... cabinet of ministers, you have a mechanism, you have a state treasury, you can to stop all this nonsense the war period, but i understand that these are all large-scale repair works during the war, this is also a big field for corruption, but i can’t explain, today the highway from kyiv to buchi, very high-quality asphalt, major repairs, they are transferring and building a perfect asphalt road , people, well, you understand, we are talking about huge funds.

hryvnias for the construction of roads or the restoration of roads in the front-line territories, this is donetsk region, kharkiv region, most importantly, and here i understand that it is necessary, having talked with many people who are at the front or near front, you understand that potholes on the roads, broken roads are time, and time is very often life, so there, but there, too, it is necessary to track that out of these 3 billion, well, at least a percentage, i would like to have 100%, but we all understand where we live, and which ones we don’t, we live in a beautiful country, what kind of people are around us, but here you can still understand there 3 billion for front-line roads, because there it is logistics, equipment, people, evacuations, well there it is necessary, so simple just control. but with mr.

verbytskyi, you are actually correct in saying that there should be responsibility of the people who were appointed to the positions, but you know, in our country there was a history when there were traitors from the sbu under the former head, who was at the beginning of a full-scale invasion, well, but then there were no questions to the head himself, he actually is now engages in legal activities, this means lieutenant bakanov, and therefore, ms. irena, in your opinion, if we talk about verbytskyi, here... it is a completely different story than with tyschenko, because it is a lot of money, which cannot be explained by large amounts of property a person who was the deputy general prosecutor, and one can really have suspicions that this money was acquired not very honestly, and perhaps one can even say even more harshly about this , but it is better not to say, this is dismissal by mutual consent, by one's own will, it this is possible internally. well, within

this circle of people, this punishment is harsh and as if, what else do you want? well, here it is important that it be so, he wrote a statement, if he wrote it, let it be of his own free will, so that after a month or two it is not forgotten, because when a person remains after such a scandal on position, then journalists will beat and monitor, for example, what should be watched, and where he will walk out, remember a... the passion of tabachnyk, who was in the ministry of infrastructure, headed the legal department, and we knew that in 3-4 months she will walk out and head the customs department, that is, we have personnel decisions, when after 2-3 months, when the scandal subsides, the person will be transferred somewhere, but this must be followed 100%, because this is a well-established scheme, well, which we can see really more than once, but you must not forget and monitor. you, so as not to smother it. and the second is this

something that mr. koshel has already focused on, but i want to raise this issue a little more broadly. when the parliament invites anyone to its presence, it is the parliament-representative body. he represents the people of ukraine. and there are quite frequent cases when neither the representatives of the government come to the session hall, nor there, for example, the prosecutor general, well, that's not the case, because it undermines. the subjectivity of the parliament and parliamentarism, you are not a guest invited to a private party somewhere, it is the legislative body of the country, which is responsible, including for personnel appointments, asks to come and say something, and you can’t say that you don’t have time, you have to come and answer, you know that, such profanity can, well, look like profanity, such tracing of soviet times, as in that soviet comedy, i ’ll say it in ukrainian words, what... give

such and such an employee a notice, he says: yes , i already have a notice, i don’t have a subory with a warning, he says, he doesn’t have a subory with a warning, the same is true here, as if, what to do, oh , let's put it on the visible, and you just understand, the person who is sitting right now near the screen well, a young person, someone with ambitions, let's say, or this person does not want to work a lot, but wants to settle down somewhere and live well, drive a porsche cayen, hang out there and take photos in the maldives during the war, for example, there is such a person, and she watched our program and thinks, you see, somehow you can get a job like this, you have assets worth millions, tens of millions, and then you write on your own desire and with all this money you simply disappear, dissolve in the fog of the maldivian islands, relatively speaking, says beautiful... me i also want to live like that, i have, well, we have literally a couple of minutes, but i, mr. oleksiy, how to convince this person that this is not possible, because again, well, it looks very tawdry, just like this story with 17 eggs, and there are certain cases, but the people who were at the top of these structures, which purchased these eggs, are still

doing well, everything is okay with them, it is a long-term process, the fight against corruption cannot immediately give a tangible the result, well actually we passed. way, i believe that this is the logic of actions, this is the previous ruling teams, this ruling one teams, but for a long time, this logic was correct, i.e. higher salaries, incentives, and supervisory boards, and control, well , a lot depends on the media, but we are now discussing this topic with you, attracting attention, it is also a mechanism of influence to the government, a lot depends on that as well, but i'm sure that in a short time we can show ... dad, which is vital to us now, that is , this issue, well, i don't want to say out loud survival, but it is an extremely important issue, during war we can find extremely serious internal resources, but a situation arises when our western partners actually ask us and convince us that

, dear, you must implement an action plan, here is a road map, steps, a sequence of steps, you will get a result at the exit, well, it is quite obvious that. .. it is certain that some of the people in power have mastered the currents very well and feel quite comfortable. ms. irina, in conclusion, i will give you the floor to sum up our conversation and give some more of what we have today, well, of course, on the examples of certain such demonstrative, but more of a philosophical conversation, which is also necessary, in fact, because it is important to discuss these issues and understand our perspectives, what perspectives do we have in this, please, because i think that the war has intensified. of all citizens, it is 100%, and we must use this activation in order to maximally involve not only western partners, because we are already a public sector, we are used to it, something has happened, we will tell our western partners about it, let them write a tweet or something they will tell us at the meetings, let's go

they are complaining, we need to talk to our parliament, not to forget that there are not only international partners, but also our parliament, turn to the government, let them feel that we, the citizens, are asking them, and ask the citizens to join in, because when citizens are active, well, even look at the petition regarding the restoration of declaration, they didn't really want to restore it, but in a few hours they set a record and opened everything, but when we involve citizens, then we can adjust the tools, and we can do everything, and as long as citizens are active, we need them join the anti-corruption fight very, very quickly. thank you very much, iryna. journalist, head of public initiative holka was with us and oleksiy koshel, doctor of historical sciences, head of the committee of voters of ukraine, thank you for spending this time with us, i will literally take 30 seconds, tell one short story and then we will talk about electricity , the guest is already ready, but my grandfather, on my mother's side, oleksandr ivanovich bevza, was the head

of a collective farm, back in soviet times, and he didn't take bribes there, he lived like that, well, on a salary, he was always asked by his colleagues when they came to some congress somewhere in the district or region, they say, well, what are you doing? you don’t take it, well, it’s possible, he says, you understand, i say, that’s why i sleep peacefully, and in principle he lived a good honest life and the collective farmer was quite successful in his work, well, but this is always a question of people, you know , someone does not sleep peacefully, but on money, but sooner or later everything always comes to an end, and the evolution of society also happens, and one day just come to steal only, and then to write a statement of my own free will and disappear somewhere, dissolve in the morning fog, well , it shouldn’t be like that somewhere, but then again, this is evolution, i am completely consciously looking at... life, i understand that, but to create conditions when, relatively speaking, these viruses will not be able to survive, just as they cannot survive in boiling water, well, such conditions must be created, yes, while our water does not always boil to 100°, especially those who have electric stoves, in particular mine, it it boils for hours, and

that's why i try to have time to cook something for myself at this time, we'll start talking about electricity, the prospects of a blackout, well, the reality of a blackout, the prospects of a blackout, and what and why? all this happens where there are betrayals, where there are truths, where there are objective, objective things. oleksandr kharchenko, director of the energy research center, is with us. mr. oleksandr, i congratulate you. good evening. i will first ask such a general question, because i often talk with friends on facebook, with colleagues from different cities of ukraine, some of them say, in our country, i do not mean the cities near the front there, but the cities that are somewhere far from the front and live a life close to normal, although there is almost no normal life in ukraine, they say that in our country they disconnect for 10 hours, in our country for 5, in our country for even less, and somehow, today there is such a phenomenon in ukraine as uneven shutdown. light in different regions, and what it depends on, because people, when they feel this injustice, they

think, no, well, it shouldn't be like that, please, eh, of course, more often and for longer they turn off those regions, which are directly in the front line, this is the first, there is a much more complicated situation, in principle, and let's not consider them, there due to constant attacks on both high-voltage and distribution networks. the situation is very difficult, as for everything else, in fact, after june 24, when the order of how the electricity limit is formed for the regions was changed, the situation evens out, and if before, well, it was quite difficult in kyiv, now it is more or less an average situation , and in principle most of the regions... the same, in the same situation, in the same position, but one must understand that

still remains in each region, a certain number, including residential buildings and various other objects that are connected to critical infrastructure, the work to disconnect them continues, but there are a lot of nuances, starting from technical difficulties and ending. well, why hide the human factor, it also has its place, and in some places there are already such cases when residents of certain buildings or representatives of certain businesses try to negotiate in the areas of electric networks so that they are lost there when compiling a list for disconnection, and such cases have already been tracked and controlled, here the truth is that the residents of the surrounding buildings have... a full opportunity to monitor that if someone

is not disconnected at all, then there is always the possibility of providing relevant information to the regional distribution company nadak, but in general the situation evens out once again and it becomes a little fairer than it was even there at the end of may at the beginning of june. yes, now i will ask questions that are definitely disturbing. of all ukrainians, well, first of all, losses in ukrainian energy, how much generations we have lost, are the numbers that were announced, are they adequate and how serious is this blow, well, you know, now the european football championship is underway, for example, i will say this, it is like losing 5:0 at the end of the match, or whatever after all, we have more chances that we will be able to restore it, and this is not such a critical story as of now. this is a critical story, let's tell the truth to the people. we passed the winter of 23-24 with

a maximum consumption of 18 gvv. 18 with a small tail d, it was the largest consumption of that land. and after that they destroyed nine of us. accordingly, it is serious. even under the condition that... it is not winter there, in september, october, for example, there will be a situation without restrictions, almost without restrictions, when the nuclear reactor units come out of repair, when it becomes a little cooler and, accordingly, the load on the networks decreases, i expect that in september-october there will either be no outages, or there will be almost no outages at all, sometimes even minimal ones, but it must be understood that the winter will be extremely difficult, and even under the condition that the capacities will be restored, as far as

maybe, but according to my data, we are talking about the fact that somewhere around 2-2.5 gigabytes at most will be restored, and immediately the question will arise, how to protect them from new shocks, and this question is already standing, because we will start the generation , having restored it, and it will fly into it again, this is a bad scenario, we are its second time ... it has not been restored by winter, so there are many difficult questions, many difficult decisions, and a difficult situation in general, so i would recommend preparing for that , that in winter it will be... about as it is now, and if it is better, then i will be the first who will be happy about that. here, you know, there is another question, let's say, last winter, the winter before last, i worked, well, together with the spress tv channel with part of the tv channel in lviv, and i had such conditions that if the electricity went out, my old house was like this, still there was polish or austrian, well, in a word,

there was no electricity, so there was a cauldron like that and there was no heat, so i... went to points of invincibility, because it happened that there was no electricity for a day, you just didn’t have much there without a phone, you sit with nothing, but it's easy for you it's really so cold that you have to go somewhere, in kyiv, let's say, in many other cities there is centralized heating, i understand that heating is not about electricity now, but it is important, because when we talk about winter, there is no light and you can go somewhere there to sit somehow, without heating, if centralized will not be more difficult, here the question is whether there are threats as of now, i am not talking about how it will be tomorrow, we do not know whether there is electricity, whether there may also be problems in winter and on the supply of heat to communities, if you have such information, if you have an understanding of what is happening there, well, first of all, we must understand that heating depends entirely on electricity, because the operation of boilers that burn gas depends on electricity, that

the operation of pumps that pump hot water into systems depends on electricity. moreover , it depends on two levels: the first level is the city level, and here, well, i must say that i see the enormous work of many municipalities, which is aimed at ensuring that the heat works even under the worst conditions, even in the absence of a general national energy supply or conditions of some kind of regional blackout, well, because they can knock out all the substations around the city. they can, it can happen, for example, there around the city a millionaire will take and attack all the high-voltage substations, maybe. so, i see preparation in many cities for the fact that even if such a situation happens, the city's heating system and water supply, sewage system will still work, they will be equipped with

autonomous power supply, they will be equipped with generators. somewhere they install more powerful already normal gas piston engines like system solutions, this work is carried out in many cities, there i can definitely talk about kyiv, i can definitely talk about odesa, i can definitely talk about mykolaiv, i see such work in kharkiv, that is, in many cities, it is at the local level, of local government, is it a branch, is it the mayor's office, is it local government, is it municipal companies, it's really... a lot of work, but here the question is whether it is, because i understand that, in principle, the city government of any city, town, there are villages, it has now settled, as there is an urban-type settlement, it has been abolished, they are gone, there are towns, all are interested in whether everyone has the opportunity to do it, that's why the cities you mentioned, i understand that now there is an opportunity, the main desire is to realize it, i

don't know, now they will tell me how much time we have left, so that i have 5 minutes, yes, but a few of these... questions that are very important to people, firstly, your advice on how to prepare, so we're talking now about apartment buildings, well, where are the big cities basically, which can just be converted, like in that movie the day after tomorrow, where everything froze, like people prepare for, please see, two elements of preparation in an apartment building, element one is to make sure that the pumps in your house are at least equipped with backup power, otherwise in... the combustion and the water will pass by your house and not go inside , when there will be a blackout , it means whether there are many options, there may be a generator, there may be sufficiently powerful batteries installed, there are options here, i would honestly put generators for such needs, but here then it is up to the residents

to decide how they reset to fuel, because it is a component. or install gas generators, but then they must be connected according to the gas network, not all houses now have gas networks, in many houses there is another element of infrastructure that must be energized, excuse the prose, this is an elevator, because if the house , let's say 20 plus floors, then the residents of the upper floors, especially, god forbid, the elderly, they are simply in prison, there is no electricity, the elevator does not work, they are simply physically... able to go down and up, here we need system solution, and maybe the local government needs to get involved, but at least the residents can definitely take care of it, and it doesn't... it costs a lot of money, that is, it's quite a huge amount of money. as for apartments, a network

of small businesses installing batteries in apartments is just unfolding before our eyes. this is not a ukrainian invention. this is a very popular story in the world. even in the united states of america, for a while even tesla advertised such tesla voll, they called it, batteries with an inverter. which hung on the wall and provided storage electricity, when it is in the network, or there from a solar power plant, they sold it together, and then gave it away when there was no electricity, this solution for the apartment is the most comfortable, it can be in a very wide price range, starting from there providing of minimum needs for 6-8 hours, the installation can cost 20. 5 - 27 uah, and if you want to provide there for a large family, 5-7 people, a large apartment, and you want

to use all appliances without restrictions during shutdowns, it will cost you 100 there -120 uah 00 that's right, it's just different possibilities, different power, different level of comfort, but in any case you will have your own in the apartment. you will have the internet working, you will be able to work the refrigerator normally, you will not worry that your products will disappear, if at the same time your house, the pumps are supplied with power, you are actually already in sufficient comfort and sufficient safety, that is, the matter, saving the drowning man , the handiwork of the heater himself, no, i lead to the fact that it is about the houses, here it is really necessary, but people who have the opportunity... without problems with their work and earnings, move to settlements where you can, well, there are banal stoves, somewhere you can

use coal or firewood or something else, well, probably that too way out, especially if we talk about the elderly, about people who have certain physical problems, to find themselves in a cold prison on the 20th floor, i even know now, sometimes i go up to my floor at the moment, and when i see... older people age, which after each, after every flight of this way they stand and take a breath , you sometimes wait, you think, a person will not die there at all, although this is in fact, it is scary, and these stories already exist now, in the winter they will only, unfortunately, increase, but but we are the same many buildings have already equipped their elevators with backup power, and i know quite a lot of such examples, thank you very much, well, we talked about the main thing, this topic will definitely burn out 150 times before winter, but it is worth starting and continuing these discussions. and to talk about it, and of course to act accordingly to people who have to act. thank you very much for listening. oleksandr kharchenko, director of the energy research center, was in touch with us. i will say goodbye to you until tomorrow at 18:10, and tomorrow i will also be with you

throughout this week and until 9 o'clock. keep yourselves. now the weather is from natalka didenko, stay with espresso, and we will be back. to all forecasters. hello, our dear viewers, july has begun, the heat continues, but not everywhere, we will talk about this later, and now we will look at the statistics of how july is usually in in ukraine, there are a few, so to speak, dry numbers and facts, so july is the hottest, or rather the warmest month of the year, with periods of unstable cargo activity and torrential rains, well , of course, these periods alternate with baking, the average monthly air temperature in july is from 19 to 25°, this is the average monthly temperature, i emphasize, the absolute

minimum of air is 1.9° of heat, in the south of odesa, kherson region and crimea 10-12, in the vysokohira carpathians even 0.1 of frost happened, the absolute maximum of temperature air 34 -39.9, well almost 40°. in the south, east and dnipropetrovsk region, in crimea in places 40-41. the average monthly amount of precipitation ranges from 62 to 119° in the west, north and vinnytsia region, usually higher up to 170 mm in the mountains. well, according to the reports of the ukrainian hydrometeorological center, the forecast of the average monthly temperature in july and the amount of precipitation is as follows. the average monthly air temperature is expected to be 20-26°. above normal, this is a forecast. monthly precipitation is expected to be between 37-95 mm, which is within normal limits. this is the one

it's july, it's like that, it's like that. well, we move on with you to the behavior of the earth's magnetic field. tomorrow, now for your attention , the forecast chart will observe small fluctuations. that's why we don't linger much here and move on to the actual weather forecast. today we start our forecast from the western regions traditionally, but here it will be almost the most exclusive weather in ukraine. therefore , we actually have another reason to start. precisely from the west, because tomorrow the lowest air temperature in ukraine is expected here 20-24, and in some places +17 +19°, it is scary to say, and in some places thundery rains, in some places heavy showers. in the north of ukraine, rain and thunderstorms are expected tomorrow in zhytomyr region, in chernihiv region and sumy region without precipitation, in kyiv region, well, there is a chance of rain, but rather in the western

regions of kyiv region, then... 28-31 in zhytomyr region and kyiv region and up to 33- 34, for example, in sumy oblast. the heat continues and will continue in the east. 33-37 above zero, dry, sunny, high fire danger. in the central part of ukraine there is also a high fire danger, as well as dry weather and the prevailing air temperature is 30-35° in dnipropetrovsk region up to 37. it will be a little easier in vinnytsia there. there is a chance of short-term rain and thunderstorms and the air temperature is somewhere within 30°. in the southern part of ukraine, strong heat 32-37 dry, sunny, high fire danger. well , the air temperature in kyiv tomorrow will settle a little, so to speak, it will fluctuate between 28-30°. it was very difficult to predict with precipitation. i want to share with you and confess honestly that

today i am not in... i'm sure i am the possibility of short-term rain with a thunderstorm, but the front literally approaches kyiv on the forecast maps and seems to freeze, so we will monitor together and of course follow the updated weather forecasts on the espresso channel. thank you natal sidenko, well, the answer came to the romanians, although not from the national team of ukraine, but from... the orange ones from the netherlands national team, today the match of the 1/8 finals of the european football championship 20-24 in germany, the romanian team, which is so, thanks to mistakes, some willful game and due to many, many mistakes that were made in the first match, the team of ukraine won 3:0, then it did not show anything outstanding at the euro, belgium lost, played in a draw, well predicted, expected for both teams, maybe even agreed

with the slovaks. well, the eighth place came out of the first place in the group, by the way, the first place in the group was romania, let me remind you, against the netherlands national team, which did not show anything special at the group stage, i remember there was also a defeat by spain, there were draws there is a victory, but in the match with the romanians, the netherlands didn't leave any chances to their opponents in the 20th minute cody hakbor started the rout in the 83rd daniel melen and in the 90th again +3 daniel melen completed this... the history of romania at the european championship according to statistics possession 61 to 39 , there are 18 shots against four, it's clear that the netherlands completely dominated the field, and today we have another match, but not about that now, i'll say goodbye to you until tomorrow, until 18:10, so on bbc news, let's watch together.

hungarian prime minister viktor orban in ukraine. why did one of the biggest critics of kyiv and military aid to ukraine in europe come to the ukrainian capital. we are talking about this today on bbc live from london , jafer umerov is working in the studio. viktor orban, an outspoken critic of western military aid to ukraine, made an unannounced visit to the ukrainian capital for the first time since the beginning of russia's full-scale war in ukraine. the last time he was in ukraine was in 2012. and today the prime minister of hungary met with president volodymyr zelenskyi. leaders discussed the relations between the countries, which have not been the best in recent years.
