political analysis objectively and meaningfully, there is no political season, exclusive interviews, reports from the hottest points of the front. freedom of life, frankly and unbiased . you draw your own conclusions. and now oleksandr morozov, a political scientist who is in prague, will work on the espresso tv channel. glad to see you, oleksandr, but first of all i would like to ask you about the assessment of the so-called astana summit. we understand that this is a story not only about putin, this is a story not even only about xi jinping, this is a story in general about an attempt to form a new, the so-called alternative agenda, to replace the so-called big summits and big events of the diplomatic international plan, which held the so-called collective event. so, the agenda. and

putin's readiness for something, what was all this for him? vladimir putin will undoubtedly use this summit to build a very important line for him, which will lead to the success of the brics summit in kazan, which will take place in october. this brics summit in kazan is extremely important diplomatically and politically for putin event. why? because there is a struggle around the summit. it was planned to expand the composition. the kremlin actively played with the applications that various countries submit, now it has been decided that there will be no expansion at this summit in kazan, but besides that, it is in kazan that putin is going to demonstrate that he has the support of the countries of the so-called global south, and here on the sidelines of the summit so, i think the main goal of kremlin diplomacy is simply to prepare for the summit in kazan. oleksandr, but we understand that there is public order. it is daytime

the agenda is real, so we understand that no matter what report, what report he makes at the summit, the key story, the main problems, well, the main problem is that putin is gradually being pressured, he is waiting for the story with the american elections, and on the other hand there is also the agenda that is being shaped by china, and the chinese so-called plan, which is not publicly accepted, at least in the west, putin is also trying to ... involve, so if we are talking about the chinese plan, well, in particular, it concerns of the russian-ukrainian war, how do you think putin will now try to play it out in his own interests? it seems to me that the situation was determined after vladimir putin, entering a new term, issued an ultimatum, that is, formulated his vision of the end of the war in four points. this ultimatum does not leave. no possibility for

diplomacy, neither for china, nor for hungary, nor for turkey, because, if putin's package of proposals could be said to be different, the kremlin formulates its goals wars, constantly talks about them, creates different goals in different periods, then here putin formulated it in its final form: if the kremlin did this, then what can mr. president xi or any other political party do here. this demand of putin includes full recognition, and with the help of international treaties, the annexation of the occupied territories. of course, china cannot act here, china constantly publicly recognizes the territorial integrity of the entire country. this is maintained in chinese foreign policy quite strictly. putin demands this. timatum to ukraine

acquired neutral status, non-nuclear status and refused military-technical cooperation, relied only on its own military-technical capabilities, etc. that is, putin is proposing finlandization, to use an old word from the cold war period. it is impossible to fulfill this demand in any way, because the very war that putin started led to the fact that not only ukraine, but also many other countries and regions. "perhaps we do not know this for sure, but apart from the armistice, this is the only thing that remains in the hands of various representatives of the world political scene, just ask putin a question, do you not want to resort to a truce, actually, something like that on the grounds of the sco summit on bilateral of some kind." oleksandr, what do you

think, and for what purpose did putin so quickly, so brazenly voiced his ultimatum, that is , the swiss peace summit was held, i will discuss quite different things, well , russian aggression against ukraine was not directly on the agenda, although we understand that everyone was talking about it, and now putin rolled out the ultimatum, so to speak. , no pulled for a certain place, but no, anyway, the first thing he did was voice something that cannot be, as you rightly noted, accepted in any public political cabinet. yes, this is a really important question and quite interesting. because indeed, during more than two years of active war, both putin and his entourage produced many different descriptions of the results of the war, etc. and now putin, entering a new term, spoke like this. different assessments are possible here, but my answer is this: putin

has done it now, targeting three audiences at once, believing that it is for him profitably. one audience is internal. putin formed around himself. the new environment, the old people have all been reshuffled and created a cabinet of endless war, that is, he has put people whom he trusts very much in key positions in the new term for the next six years, and with this he sets a task for them, as if to say, this is what you signed up for, this is what you should do for the next six years, this should be the result of your work, this is the first moment, an appeal to your own political top of the bureaucracy. the second important point: putin is undoubtedly addressing ukrainian society with this ultimatum. in the kremlin , everyone knows about it, not even the mood, there is a constant conviction that ukraine must weaken itself from the point of view of its moral, military and political spirit, to break

before the irresistible power of kryvyi, simply put. putin, after president zelensky's term of office ended, first began to emphasize that... zelensky is illegitimate and it is impossible to negotiate with him, etc. and this statement by putin is aimed at pushing how believe in the kremlin, a part of ukrainian society that this will happen, accept it as inevitable, start changing your position and create a new one. and the third audience, here, of course, is the countries of the alliance of global support of ukraine. first of all, the united states. and already. putin wants to say here that, regardless of how the scenarios of the american elections in november will develop, who will be the president, the position of the kremlin is this, it is absolutely unimportant to us, putin wants to say, who will be your president there, these are our demands

about how this war should end, and any president of the united states, or any secretary general of nato, will deal with them, and now he's new, or? any composition of the european commission, whether the ministry of defense will be created in the european commission, which will be headed by the former prime minister of estonia, the ministry of foreign affairs, the kremlin says: this is the perspective and no other, this leads to the fact that everyone has heard it, no doubt, everyone who makes political decisions, who develops further elements of security policy, everyone heard perfectly, what putin said. yes, well, but if we... are talking about the ukrainian audience, we understand that putin could not have voiced anything stupider, yes, because it was not some kind of proposal that should provoke an internal-ukrainian discussion, so to speak, the ultimate demand, to give back what the russians have not yet captured, and we understand

that these stories do not work, on the other hand, as you very correctly noted, putin is trying to indicate, that is, to set certain markers of his appetites. yes, it is undoubtedly designed for a western audience, and accordingly, the key story: putin is in a big hurry. we understand that he would like to have time before the elections in the united states. perhaps some big events are still being planned, because putin is really, well, extremely violent to his generals, yes, when he talks about an offensive at any cost. those are the two months of the summer campaign, well, they are extremely bloody and tense. in general , the situation here is quite strange, as far as it can be seen, the fact is that, on the one hand, in the summer of this year , many predicted, and not without reason, that the kremlin will carry out a fairly large offensive, not just tactical, but rather convincing, which will record itself as an asset, such an offensive, which

would change the situation in favor of the kremlin quite strongly, this is on the one hand, and on the other hand, we are surprised to see that at the same time putin changed the minister of defense and put in his place... the minister of defense is some sort of accountant, a person who is responsible for ensuring that the army spends half the time fighting and half the time correctly drawing up financial documents, and the second moment here is... extremely historical, at the same time , significant military figures and military generals are being arrested and charged with fraud. not only is general petrov accused of fraud, but yesterday we saw reports that the commander of the guards airborne assault brigade , colonel horodylov, seems to have that name, also accused of fraud? i would say that this is a rather strange situation to prepare for or conduct any kind of offensive, because such ... events, in my opinion, are very demoralizing to the military leadership on the ground, that is, if you imagine that in the trenches

talk about it, and we have an idea about it through, of course, war correspondents, war correspondents, it is clear that everyone there is confused. how so? for some reason, the most active and authoritative russian military commanders in the trenches follow the article about fraud. these are some strange events. this is one side of all this, the other side, nevertheless, despite the fact that... in the first half of 2024 , rather insignificant tactical successes of the russian army were recorded, but from the point of view of the whole concept of this war, it is clear that parity has been achieved, and this parity is not is breaking, that is, yes, the russian army continues to inflict heavy blows on the infrastructure, but ukraine has been extremely successfully active for all six months of this year since it just started receiving military aid. but even before that, the drone war that ukraine conducted was quite

effective. and i must say that i do not see any ideas in the russian military and political environment, how this parity can be destroyed. so, the situation is not easy here, and it seems to me that this is why the kremlin is now supporting and twisting something gnotic, organizes the cast around the concept of a possible truce or peace. peace. here, of course, as i said at the very beginning, the brics summit in kazan plays a big role, no wonder, because before the october summit, putin already has to pretend to be a peacemaker, he has to constantly hint to the global audience that he is for peace, constantly continue the game that it is kyiv that does not want peace, constantly appeal to some old... but the so-called istanbul documents, let them

not be ratified or even signed , rather, but the istanbul documents go contrary to what putin voiced and what we call putin's ultimatum, and if we're talking, let's go back to this ultimatum again, is it about psychopathology, do you think the kremlin has some scripted plan, that is, they are moving according to some clear, i don't know there directive...direct, or are they simply depending on the mood of their fuehrer? at least now, it is clear that putin, on the one hand, has resorted to steps that clearly demonstrate that he is going to fight for a long time. this is primarily evident from the permutations he made in russian political and military leadership after the start of the new term. he showed with these reshuffles that it is necessary to calculate the entire calculation of the war in a different way, because it will be... long, hence all these economic reshuffles in the economic bloc, this is one side, and he

clearly shows it. the other side is that the kremlin does not have an answer to the question of how to act further if the global alliance of support for ukraine is preserved and will strengthen and develop. this is a fundamental factor. putin and the kremlin always say: the war would end, if the west did not support ukraine. this is said with offense, sometimes in an insulting tone, or in the tone of diplomatic maneuvers, but this is the main point. and of course, putin's dream is that the global alliance supporting ukraine weakens, gives up, changes its position. but it must be said, this is not the case, it is clearly visible. on the contrary, if you look at what is happening now at the nato summit, the kremlin media will scream and pout, because at the summit... nato in washington, which will take place in less than 10 days, it will be clearly demonstrated that

regarding the kremlin and its war against ukraine , long institutions of support have been created and will continue to be created, that is, all support is institutionalized and regardless of who will be the president of the usa and which parties will win in the european parliament, there are long documents voted in the us congress that will not change. regarding this, we can clearly see that the kremlin has to offer something from... an island state that seems to support the kremlin, for some international institutions, for some agreements with these countries , but it must be said that in the countries of political regimes that openly and openly supported the kremlin on planet earth, i would say, apart from north korea, we all have great doubts about iran and china, there is

a great struggle going on. and by the way, returning to china, yes, maybe during this... conversation, xijin ping will very specifically voice his sacramental question to putin. putin, how long are you going to fight with ukraine? yes, because the chinese also have their own plans for what is called continental cooperation, that is, the chinese measure not just in hundreds of billions. the chinese are now very dependent on to keep this whole inflated economy and all its machinations. there is an important point here: china will never join the alliance. struggle with the kremlin, but at the same time, china demonstrates to the kremlin that war, especially an aggressive war aimed at territorial conquest, is unacceptable for china. i have no doubt that china and turkey, as well as many other countries and in latin america, are also ready to provide some service to putin in ending the war, but in ending the war, and not in the continuation under

the conditions of the ultimatum that putin put forward. however, now there are no... prospects for this, because i think many people have asked putin, and the same erdogan on the sidelines of this summit also asked putin again, saying, maybe you want to take some new steps, so we are ready to help, but putin's answer is obvious, no, everything is formulated in the ultimatum, if you follow what is in the ultimatum, once again i return to where we started, no one has any prospects to conduct any diplomacy... in conclusion war, and what dozens of politicians on planet earth would like to win the nobel peace prize for creating a structure to end this war, no doubt about it, is everyone's dream. thank you very much, oleksandr, for this extremely interesting and informative conversation, i want to remind our tv viewers that oleksandr morozov, a famous

political scientist, was currently working for them from prague. well, the time of our program is over, stay with the espresso tv channel. my colleagues will see you. inform about all the most important events of this day, take care of yourself and your loved ones, see you on the air, see this week in the program judicial control, extra-procedural actions and smearing of drunken drivers, why vrps fired judge galyonkin, apply to panagalk for a sanction in the form of a motion to dismiss the position held, and how judge bonchev failed the qualification... evaluation and all the measures i took in the law , they were fulfilled. congratulations, judicial control is on the air. institutional rebooting and personnel renewal of the judiciary based on the norms of professional ethics and integrity is the basis of the judicial reform currently underway in ukraine. its successful implementation is the main thing

a requirement for our further path to the eu. about how successful the transformation is. and whether the moral and professional qualities of justice officials meet high standards, we will talk today, but first to the news. the supreme council of justice dismissed the duty judge who got behind the wheel while intoxicated. volodymyr borodiychuk, deputy chairman of the cherkasy court of appeal, resigned from his post. police caught him drunk driving a toyota land cruiser prado in november 2023 . borodiychuk refused to undergo an examination on state of intoxication, and even more generally denied that he was behind the wheel, after the incident he submitted an application to the vrp with a request to release him into honorable retirement with life imprisonment. a few months ago , the cherkasy court found bordiychuk guilty and fined him 17 hryvnias with a one-year driving license suspension. now the supreme council of justice in its entirety has decided to leave

unchanged the decision of the third disciplinary chamber to dismiss the judge. serhii galonkin, the head of the poltava court of appeal, also lost his judicial seat in... he known for living in the church he built. here is this house with an area of ​​661 m2, located in the suburbs of poltava, but he was dismissed from the post of judge not for this, but because of extra-procedural communication with the lawyer and judges regarding two cases of driving while intoxicated. one of them features the judge's son. in audio recordings of conversations recorded by the national anti-corruption bureau, galonkin promises his help. the third disciplinary chamber of the vrp publishes an excerpt of this conversation. by and large , you know, we are normal people, we we will always do everything, if we need help, we will always help. however, the members of the disciplinary chamber probably did not see a significant misdemeanor here and decided that galyonkin's three-month deprivation of allowances would be sufficient as a punishment. the judge

appealed this decision, and the supreme council of justice dismissed the judge altogether. galonkin committed a significant disciplinary offense that is incompatible with the status of a judge. voting is over, eight members of the vrp voted for, four against, thus the supreme council of justice passed. apply to the judge poltava court of appeal. disciplinary action in the form of a motion to dismiss a judge from office. now the supreme council of justice has to make a formal decision, but serhii galonkin can still appeal it. the higher qualification commission of judges continues to weed out unworthy representatives. and recently, this process has gained momentum. many unscrupulous servants of themis were already one step away from being released. the commission recognized the judge as unworthy of office. ihor bonchev of the fastiv city district court of the kyiv region. it is so difficult to say here, because all this nobody knows the truth. ihor bonchev has delayed cases for drunken

driving, inconsistency of life with official income, and dubious sources of wealth. well, not exactly conscientious, your performance of the duty to maintain your qualifications as a judge at a high level. ihor bonchev did not work hard. myself with work, i try to be present in court as much as possible, once or twice a week. and other days, what do you do? i am improving my qualifications. okay, uh, how about you let me find out? he studies legislation. bonchev assures that he must do this, because the legislation is constantly changing. however , name at least two changes to the criminal procedure code. in recent years, i haven't been able to... tell me, please, at least two or three changes to the criminal procedure code, which were approved by law, introduced by relevant laws, which took place after

the introduction of martial law on the territory of ukraine, now , now, well, when you don't do justice, it took a long time. immediately and flies out of the head. judge ihor bonchev could not remember a single topic from a 48-hour advanced training course. conducted classes on the integral court. i remember this for sure. integrated court. perhaps open this concept integral court, because it is some new expression so interesting. i simply don't remember anymore, six months have passed, maybe it is, well , one of the topics was in the context of the conclusion of the criminal code number 26 on the digitalization of the judiciary,

so digitalization, ihor bonchev studied the legislation so diligently that he systematically missed deadlines during the consideration of cases for driving a car on tipping the public integrity council recorded at least nine cases where drunk drivers avoided punishment because of this. there was no deliberate action to avoid them, and all the measures i took were legal, they were carried out. in addition to a bad memory, judge bonchev has a wonderful ex-wife. in 2018, she gave him half a million uah. in the 17th year, she started collecting funds for this. she worked as a director, and she also had a company. in my opinion, sich, no, i don’t remember now, but ega, here, there was, yes, i know what

she was doing, according to the data of the public council integrity, the ex-wife of the judge did not have the financial opportunity to give her ex- husband such an expensive gift, because in general for the whole of 2017 she earned less than this amount, she had uah 90,000 in savings, and even taking them into account, she would have had to spend the whole year for her ex-husband to starve, you declared in your declaration that the person authorized to perform the functions of the state is 471 hryvnias 471,874 hryvnias, so this income consisted of the wife's income, this income consisted of funds received as wages , dividends from abroad responsibility of ego and funds from the sale of two plots of land owned by the spouses. well, if we proceed even from this amount, the amount of keeping the wife at the end, at the beginning, at the end of 2016 17th year, uah 90,000. then

the question arises, well, purely mathematically, moreover, the judge did not pay alimony for small children, but assures that his ex- wife asked him for money, and he gave it to her. the younger child was only 2 years old, what were the motives, if she needed these funds, collect the last funds, all that were in and give it to you, well, because i had it before marriage. an apartment in the white church, i sold it later, when we were married, and well, i can’t name the reason here, but i sold it for something, not for that, not for that, and i had nowhere to go, and she about it i knew, she is also a human person, with money from his wife, ihor bonchev bought an apartment in the village of khodosivka in the kyiv region, and shortly before that

he bought a car for almost... hryvnias, paid half of the money immediately, took half on credit, if you understood that you don't have money for an apartment enough, then this car, the oil in the previous car started leaking, and there was simply such a repair that had to be done, during the entire interview judge ihor bonchev made excuses as best he could, but it did not help him, to recognize the judge... ihor volodymyrovych bonchev of the kyiv region such that does not correspond to the position held. the final decision on bonchev's dismissal must now be made by the supreme council of justice, and we will continue to monitor the progress of the qualification evaluation of themis officials and the implementation of the judicial reform. and for today, that's all i have there was judicial control and i am tetyana shustrova. if you know the facts of corruption in the judicial

system, or you want to... hear about an unscrupulous judge who makes illegal decisions, write to me on facebook or to the e-mail address you see on the screen. it's all good, we'll meet in exactly one week. hello, this is the bereber program. together, a joint project of the crimean tatar tv channel atr and the tv channel in the studio i andrii yanitskyi and gulsum khalilov. congratulations to aleikum, hurly kunler. we are very happy to welcome you today studio we will, as always traditionally , talk about crimea, about de-occupation, about and about the reintegration of the temporarily occupied crimean peninsula. and of course, we will sum up and talk about everything that happened this week.

and in the first block - the first block is military expert vladyslav seliznyov, military expert and spokesman of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine in 14-17 years. mr. vladyslav, congratulations. greetings, salam aleyka. i congratulate you, glad to see you and glory to ukraine. well, mr. vladyslav, recently the commander of the navy of ukraine said that russia is losing its naval center in crimea. what does that mean, how much... well when we say lose, how serious is it at this stage? here it is said that the russian occupiers are slowly, but nevertheless, losing their military presence on the territory of the currently occupied crimean peninsula, including first and foremost through the destruction of their military facilities in crimea and sevastopol by the ukrainian defense forces, because when the enemy is forced to hide their warships, they carry sea-

based missiles of the caliber type. closer to novorossiysk is definitely not a pro-military presence in crimea. when the enemy loses the resource capabilities of its anti-aircraft and anti-missile defense system, it weakens the combat capabilities of the russian occupiers. when the warehouses and arsenals of the enemy's bases with ammunition, including the shaheds, with which the enemy targets the territory of our country, are turned into ashes, this is precisely the loss of key elements that ensure the combat power of the russian army of occupation, and i think that... this activity is not random. the ukrainian army has repeatedly declared about that the 24th year will be a year of special attention on the territory of the temporarily occupied crimean peninsula. because the enemy has a feeling that crimea is not his land, it is ukrainian land, and this land will lie under the feet of the russian occupiers until the foot of the last russian occupier leaves the territory of crimea. and here i think that they should hurry, because it is not for nothing that our two glorious generals.
