ternopil is the third city where it was organized pre-premiere screening. last summer , we were thinking about how to celebrate the ten-year anniversary of the tv channel. presso, we thought that the celebration of the tenth anniversary is an important story, but the current events do not correspond to any large-scale celebration, so the idea arose precisely in honor of the tenth anniversary to create such a documentary about the history of ukraine, about the history of ukraine's struggle for independence in the last 10 years. the plot is based on the story of several ukrainians, in particular, a paramedic became the heroes of the film julia and paevska, journalist tetyana chornovol, writer svitlana povalyaeva and her son, fallen hero of ukraine, activist roman ratushny. we tell through the fates of our heroes, tyra, ratushny, tetyana chornovol and many hundreds of thousands of other heroes who are now

defending ukraine and who stood up for the independence of ukraine and for our european elections, starting from the maidan. the work on the creation of the documentary lasted over a year, by the director and screenwriter. the film was directed by oleg garenchar, who lives and works in the united states of america. the picture consists of archival footage taken from 2013 to 2023 . chronicles must be written, it's very important, because it's not only about memory, it's about stories about people, stories about events that we already... have to be aware of, and films like this, they just help ukrainians and i hope that viewers from abroad will realize what is happening to us and what is happening around us. the creation of the film was made possible thanks to the public organization all-ukrainian

democratic forum with the support of yousite, a media program in ukraine, which is implemented by the international organization internews and the zmi development fund of the us embassy. emotions rose strongly and i felt that after the movie it was very difficult to always talk, then i didn't talk to anyone for about half an hour, because i couldn't, i also remembered 2013, when i also went to the maidan, when i also felt the atmosphere of the maidan , when ukrainians were at odds with each other, and how they fought to have... in the near future , pre-premiere screenings will be held in other regional centers, apart from ukraine. the tape is planned to be presented abroad for english-speaking audience, so that foreigners from all over the world know about the crimes of russia and remember that the war in ukraine continues. kateryna oliynyk,

friends, we are back, this is the final hour of our first part, participation in the espresso marathon, i will remind you that we are working today throughout the day, then at 2 p.m. let's come back and stay with you for a few more hours. lesya vakulyuk, andriy saichuk work for you in this studio, we already, you could see while kateryna shiropoyas was there, and there... in the background of her in the news , our guest appeared in the frame and we will now include him in the conversation, quite recently we had another guest in this studio, oleksandr irvanets, who is our regular viewer, and this morning he and andrii sent us poems again. you stretch in bed, turn it on, and the sinister thought warms you that the sleepless lesya and andriy are already waiting for you in the studio. the truth in these words is indeed on the sixth day morning shift, we are awake with us

today, i don’t know whether he is asleep or nilyana skhodovsky, the head of the analytical direction of the ans network and the director of the institute of socio-economic transformations, but we , mr. ilya, are glad to see you in any state, sleepy or not, we will talk about money, before we start talking about it, dear friends, i want to remind you about money, you and i have already collected uah 20,000 in these few hours. of our work on the air, i hope that it will not stop there, 9 00, if more are added, so it will be in general that you and i are at the monobank for this week, and this is his qr code here, you see, you and i will collect 300,000, so while we are talking, don't forget to donate, transfer money or here to the card number , or open the camera and scan this qr code, well, now let's talk, let's start with the exchange rate. and right away our viewers will think, no, well, now they definitely won’t pay, i’ll go change money, the official

dollar exchange rate exceeded 41 hryvnias for the first time, how will this trend develop further and in connection with what, to things, we will exceed, but we are given billions of billions of dollars, now we have, by the way, in order to analyze trends in the foreign exchange market, if before you mainly analyzed the state of our trade, balance of payments, demand and... positions, situations on the cash market, that is, you analyzed such a more objective factor that affects how the exchange rate is formed, including partly speculative, then at this moment you analyze more the policy of the national bank, try to understand what the logic is, because today the main player in the foreign exchange market is the national bank, and as a result, depending on which path it chooses, it accordingly shapes the rate, of course, it is interesting. not in devaluation, but in a certain stability, however , we see that since the beginning of the year, the exchange rate has already

devalued by more than 7%, that is, this is already quite a serious devaluation during one half-year, and this is of course a challenge, and here is the question in therefore, by the way, he returned the national bank to 41 hryvnias, there 40-88 ended, ended friday, yesterday's trades on the currency exchange, but still... during these trades, it crossed 41 and some put out offers accordingly at 41.08, and here is the logic, what is the benefit, let's say , of the national bank for the national bank itself as stability and a low exchange rate are beneficial to me, why? because people then don't buy dollars, people then directly enter or deposit, which is beneficial to the national bank for the stability of the banking system. or buy domestic government bonds loans, as well as a very good alternative

for obtaining the appropriate yield, and when you have 7% within one half year, then accordingly, in a year, if the trend continues, it will already be 14%, taking into account that the bonds of the domestic government loan for today day is 12-13%, accordingly, people will think, well, it is better to invest in the dollar now, especially since we really have an uncertain situation during the period. winter, why, because the first is the lack of electricity, we will purchase in large quantities in order to stabilize our internal situation regarding the supply of electricity to the population and business, business will not work in the volumes it is, which means that it will produce less products, including for exports, accordingly, our trade balance will change, in addition to this it will go directly to the use of generators, which is expensive. accordingly, this will also provoke inflation, and then

they will also purchase not only generators now, but also fuel for it, well, in 2022-23 river it was insignificant, respectively, let's say a percentage, now it can be more and can affect the situation as a whole, plus the volumes themselves, so in this context, of course, well, there can be such a situation, but what is the benefit now, because, for example, if we take the year 2023, when the dollar was released, then the national bank sold more than a billion dollars in a week, now it is only 600 million, despite the fact that it has... roots, reserves, the question arises, well, why not to sell for conditional 200 million more, even taking into account the fact that we have much less coverage of the budget deficit due to external borrowings, then i think that it is possible , let's say, there is an agreement with the ministry of finance so that this international aid that

was received would be sold more expensively and, accordingly, the ministry of finance would receive more hryvnias or well, there are simply no such serious explanations why the policy of the national bank right now is like this, well, we are still an export economy, or are we an import economy, no, our imports exceed last year's exports by 26 billion. what is the exchange rate in in such a case, it means for but at the expense of that, that is, we should have had a devaluation, well, at the level of the conventional 50 hryvnias, this is objective, but our international partners, they provide us with help. for example , last year i said minus 26 billion, but they gave us 42 billion dollars, and of course , when they give you 42 billion, and you have a negative balance, you have such a negative balance, then you maintain a course for a stable situation, as soon as they stop submit, provide us with international aid, the situation is worse, but here the situation is worsened by the fact that our

payments are increasing, that is, we are borrowing, but the payments are also increasing. in particular, for example, negotiations are underway regarding the postponement and write-off of part of the commercial debt, there are 20 billion, and this is a significant amount for us now, and of course, it is very important that we agree on this, if we compare our situations in general, our negotiating positions , in my opinion, ukraine has a better negotiating position than our creditors, no matter how they prove there, but they are now only quoting eurobonds at the level of 25%. and they will lose 75% if they just now, let 's just say, don't come to an agreement with ukraine, we propose to write off only 60, well, let's see how it ends, they have to end by august 1, is this a real default scenario, we have already experienced several technical defaults since the beginning of the war, why, because we agreed

on the postponement of our debt obligations, it will simply be a so-called... not a technical default, but a full-fledged default, but well, for us, even if it happens, that is, such a scenario can be , it is not critically, we do not raise funds in the commercial market, we raise funds from our partners, and their assistance does not depend on whether we are in default or not in default, the only thing is that a line will be written on our credit history accordingly, and of course for us this is not very useful for future, shall we say, cooperation. with international partners, i don't know if the generators were buzzing outside when we went to ours, just in time the light came on, well, but they buzz during the day and with the light, not only in the evening with the light somehow bad, yesterday we went to work, there was no light, they came home at lunch and there was no light, in the evening they came home again,

there was no light, and it appeared already when they were going to sleep. this is a disconnection, well , they say that there in september and october, the situation will be easier, the situation will be better, it will be easier, why, because the consumption decreases due to the not so high temperature, but it is very short-lived, as soon as the temperature starts to fall there, then immediately in our consumption is increasing, so that we understand, consumption will increase one and a half times for the winter, and this is critical, we simply do not have such a quantity electricity and... well, this challenge is serious, how will our economy react to it, will prices creep up in connection with this, they have already started to rise, that is, the blackouts that are happening now, they affect, firstly, in connection with the fact that you do not have electricity, then you simply sometimes, well, for example, you have freezers, and to install a generator,

firstly, this is an investment in order to have this generator, secondly, it is the cost of electricity that is produced . its generator is two or three times more expensive, as a result, calculating that, for example, that one the store itself, for example, they sell frozen ice cream there for a conditional price of uah 100, and you have to sell it for uah 130, then you understand that you simply will not be competitive in this regard and you stop your trade accordingly, the same applies to large productions, which are unprofitable to put there, for example, large generators in order to provide, because the cost of production is not included in it. in the market, imported products will accordingly prevail in a better price, and exports will not be affected with the price, well, plus, i.e. both a shutdown and an increase in cost, and so in this context to me. a question for the government, i understand everything, but what are you doing to support ukrainian manufacturers, they face, first of all, these are usually security factors,

that is, they bomb, destroy, fly in, as a result, it is necessary to recover, this is the question mobilizations, refugees, many people who have gone abroad, and mobilizations take people away, and there we were just holding a press conference on businesses that are located in the front-line zone, and he says, well , we actually have only, in my opinion, he said 12 and only six left, of which five are women, and our work is such that, well , women just don't do it, we already see women, combine harvesters and truck drivers, and this is a job that sometimes just requires a lot of physical endurance, well, that’s for sure, that is... we will face it, but then it’s simple, if we talk about ukrainian business, it's a question of expensive loans, a high discount rate, it's a question of power outages, it's necessary again

buy a generator in order to ensure uninterrupted operation of your enterprise and so on, and at all these moments we say, that is, i, for example, say, not that the need for introduction is ripe, overripe, but you are looking for where to tax, who to tax? in addition, because you need revenue to the budget, he says: let's conditionally increase the vat there, and let's increase the military levy on people, well, i'm sorry, well, this will lead to an increase in the cost of production, so, well, you'll just finish ukrainian business, we already have 2/3 of our exports are agricultural products, we need to introduce an import duty, which, at least at least a little, will even out the situation that has developed in the domestic market, and we, well, our... producers are feeling worse and worse and simply accept, there was one wave of ukrainian business moving to the west, it was approximately 2023, and they

were mainly connected with security factors and impossibility, your customers are there, accordingly you move, now there may be a second wave the migration of ukrainian business abroad, due to the fact that there is no electricity inside the country, there are no people, there are no, logistics are expensive, loans are expensive, and so on, no support, as a result people simply understand that either you are bankrupt or you are moving abroad, and people will go abroad. you see, mr. ilya, so what andriy dligoch wrote about recently, that since they are giving enough money now, even the government is tempted to think, why do we need to develop the economy, the partners will just write another check, and everything, don't support the front, they don't give us this money, they give us credit, and what's more, well, for example, i still have

some doubts about reparations, considering what an inadequate country, uh, well, that is, so how do we get a country with nuclear weapons to pay us billions, trillions of dollars there, how? well, i have a question, how will we force? well, i suppose it's theoretically possible, but again, it's not a 100% guarantee that frozen russian assets will be transferred to ukraine, but this is only half of what we need, ugh, even in this case, by the way, we talked about the frontline business, if it is not preserved, it is ready to move, then just where people will return, they say to return, ugh. people mostly left the front-line areas because of security, he returns, he has no work, he has no work, he is in a house in

which, well, conditionally, he is not in a village where he has his own family, he will be able to provide for himself there, he is in a house in which it is necessary to go to the store, buy a product, to pay utility bills and so on, the question arises as to where a person will return, take a specific case, if you do not save the front-line business now... then i'm sorry, no one will return, that is, those who will return, they will dump their apartments for worthless, because it will simply be a dead region in which there is no suitable work and to go abroad, well , here it is very important to preserve this particular business, and our government is currently analyzing the 579 program, precisely the businesses that are in the territory near the front are credited, and why is it not credited, because it is given to banks, they say, well, you have a front-line one, which means it is dangerous, and if it is dangerous, you have nothing to leave as collateral, and as a collateral, as a result, we simply will not give you money, that

is, state the program is privately financed. for businesses in safe regions, where there are no arrivals, and there banks are just happy to lend, and where support, budgetary support is needed, so that loans are decent, then as a result they are on their own, surviving as best they can, i just think what will someone from the audience say now: well, well, what, what do you propose, we have a war with russia, we have to win it, look, even a war. this still does not mean that you have to make stupid decisions, that is, what should be done, well, first of all, well, for example, regarding electricity, i wrote 10 points back in march, when russia's tactics became clear, that it will destroy no longer transformers, which we can replace in march, april, may, june, july, i listened to you, took from 103 and executed only recently some executions.

points, this is a question of business lending, exemption from taxation, but a lot of things are simply not done, which are quite elementary, there are organizational ones, which permits would allow, let's say, to continue consumption, in our country, for example, they destroyed shunting generation, basic generation , despite the fact that certain nuclear units have stopped for the moment, but it is still enough to provide, and in this context it is important... to reduce consumption at certain hours, so we are disconnected, we generally reduce consumption, and it is necessary to reduce consumption precisely at the time when we have a peak, it is mainly in the evening hours and in the morning, but this is also not healthy, here and there you go through the points and only now the implementation is being discussed, you understand that it is simply not we have time, if we started doing it in march, we would

have finished it by november. relevant projects for the installation of gas-piston and other generators that could provide at least the gigawatt that zelenskyi spoke about, but now that’s all, we don’t have time now, it’s unlikely, it would be sooner well, if we have time now until next winter, why do you think they are delaying this, why delay the government so much starting from the very appointment, that is, when honchuruk was removed, then shmyhal was installed, he understood that the most important thing was to to hold on to his position, to be uninitiated, to do what the president's office tells you, and he clearly did it. when there were some problems, the government reacted to the problem mainly, when it was no longer, not when it was necessary to create certain steps in order to prevent the occurrence of this problems, and when the problem has already arrived, when

it... is already serious, and then the government makes certain decisions, the same, well, during the course, starting with covid, such decisions were made, some of them were completely incompetent, when the whole country was closed, i shouted, well, how was it possible that there was not a single patient in the region in this area, and you are closing this area, forbidding to work, it was an absolutely incompetent decision, that is, only then in the months of september, that is, from march to september, the appropriate approach was developed, which is just... intended to take into account the number of sick people, then later during the war there was a gasoline crisis, again the government does not know how to make the right decisions, it likes to react like this or by hand, and secondly to react when the problem is ripe and overripe, it still hopes for avoz, here we avoz somehow survived the winter of 22-23, well, we will somehow survive the winter of 24-25, plus the transfer from...

responsibility to our partners, this, well, both in military affairs and in to such a thing, give us more money, give us generators, you didn't give us generators, you gave us, but recently sviridenko spoke about the limit of electricity, she just has the feeling that the limit is that they are sitting, that's how it is formed, that the europeans are sitting, they have this electricity there, and they just they don't want to give it to the ukrainians, so we have to go, here's an answer. put pressure on them to transfer more electricity to the ukrainians, but i apologize, they do not have the technical capabilities to provide more electricity, the germans closed all their nuclear power plants at one time, well, things are not that simple there, well, but less so, but we are all to blame for this approach itself, well, it’s okay, maybe, but i just think that if the war drags on even longer, and at some point, i don’t know... it will be

when, well we just understand.
