to protect freedom of religion, however, our correspondents will tell whether the people's elected officials share the same opinion about the tortuous path of the draft law on the banning of moscow churches and the prospects of such an initiative. a little more than a year ago, the russian peace was kicked out of the kyiv-pochersk lavra. let me remind you and emphasize: in the ukrainian capital, in the ukrainian shrine, they prayed for... now in the lavra they are already praying in ukrainian for ukraine and for ukrainian defenders. however, a year later, it is still in ukraine there are russian churches, and the clashes regarding their ban under the dome of the council are no less active today than a year ago under the dome of the lavra. the struggle with the moscow church in ukraine began in 2022. in november of that year.

more than 30 people's deputies from different factions , led by mykola knyazhytskyi, registered draft law 8221, but the majority rejected it. in december 2022, more than 20 deputies of various factions, led by iryna konstantevel, registered another document under number 8262. however , the people's servants did not like it either. and finally everyone. in 2023, the cabinet of ministers submitted its draft law 8371 at the request of the nsdc. i would like to emphasize that all three initiatives were supported by the specialized humanitarian committee. however, even the mildest of all government draft laws took almost six months to get to the first reading. then he won 267 votes in favor. march 5, 2024 . the committee of the verkhovna rada on

humanitarian and information policy recommended the parliament to adopt it in the second reading, and here we are finally here on july 23, 2020. 24th year draft law 8371 on amendments to some laws of ukraine regarding activities of religious organizations in ukraine want to be seen in the hall, but not everyone, according to the people's elected representatives to the dissenting council, it is blocked by a monomajority. today, at the conciliation council, the servants united with two former groups, sub-groups and the former opzzh and did not introduce this one. actually included in this draft law 8371, we are sending such and such news, it is a pity that we have a new coalition between servants and pro-russian parties in the 10th year of the war, but we have what we have, we chose such a servant, but there were servants

of the people, they became servants earlier it was assumed that it is not considered because there are not enough votes in favor, however, the parliamentarians assure that the initiative is supported. there are even among the servants of the people, there are enough votes for this draft law, the only question is to introduce it in order into the agenda, and since the servants block its introduction into the agenda, unfortunately, we cannot consider it, i am sure that if this law is in hall, then at least 250 deputies will vote for him, besides , the people's deputies could be frightened by conditional anathema, they say, they already have threats that they will receive personal western sanctions. if support of the initiative. according to the people's deputies, the relevant letter came from an american law firm that acts on behalf of the ukrainian orthodox church. in contrast, others say the 83-71 vote was overwhelmingly democratic. the law on prohibition

of the activities of the russian orthodox church as an organization that threatens the national security of ukraine. this is required by the convention on the protection of rights. of a person, article 9:11, this is required by the constitution of ukraine, article 35-36, where it is directly stated, there is an explanation of the constitutional court, which directly obliges the ukrainian government, the ukrainian authorities, each of us, to protect national security from the interference of hostile organizations, there will be no closure, these are court procedures, these are scientific examinations, these are collegial decisions, as well as practically all wishes. churches of various ukrainians, from protestants to fcu , were heard and included in this bill in order for it to really work. however, no matter what the problem was, as soon as the parliament decided not to consider church issues, its

work stopped. people's deputies of the faction european solidarity, the voice of the trust and future group blocked the podium. in addition to the military bills that have direct. after the conciliation council with the leaders of the factions, the head of the verkhovna rada, ruslan stepanchuk, announced a break in the meeting. on the sidelines , they say that such a break will probably last until the end of august, and if the document is not passed. the tribune will continue to be blocked, and even if the case starts to move, the process will still be slow, there are 1200 edits, at least, which will be put on confirmation by the representatives of the former opzhz now, actually the remnants of this structure, and that is why

it is such a long process. the chairman of the vru later announced that parliamentarians will not rest, but will work in committees, in particular on the draft law. about the ban of the ukrainian orthodox church. the latter will be put to the vote of the parliament after collecting 240 votes in its support. and at the same time, according to the latest april survey of the kyiv city institute of sociology, ukrainians are more unanimous on the issue of the moscow patriarchate. 63% of reviewers are in favor his complete ban. kateryna galko, yuliya belska, andriy verstyuk, espresso tv channel. that's it... for now i'm telling you see you at 5 p.m. the newsroom is working, we 're monitoring what's happening in ukraine and the world, in the next issue we'll talk about the main things, my colleagues lesya vakulyuk and andriy saichuk will work on the air later .

our airwaves, eh, you see, such magic, mykhailo nepran, the first vice-president of the chamber of commerce and industry of ukraine, appears right there, sunday , mr. mykhailo, we are in the studio, the traditional sunday nepran column on the espresso tv channel. to prevent this from happening, on sunday at 3:10 p.m., you and i have to meet, i want something to be stable, well, actually. it's 15-14 and we really only have 10 minutes to talk, so straight to the point, it's discrimination, it's discrimination, it's what i'd say fluctuation, and next time it's just going to be different, it's it's it's to say it, uh, let's get to the point, promise, tsetsenko, andrei, you say that every time, but let's go back, as the ancient greeks said, to our sheep, yes, therefore, there is an idea... seriously seriously raise a lot of taxes and even come up with some new ones to introduce, mr. mykhailo, what do you

think about this, as a representative of business, you must have read today's post by danylo hetmansov, who wrote on this topic, i understand that he is now, yes, he is is being actively discussed today, well , actually, it was discussed even earlier, when the ministry of finance presented this initiative, danylo hetman, this... the head of the tax committee should discuss it in his committee and then report together with the minister of finance at the session of the verkhovna rada. so what is our position? the position of the business, strictly speaking, is the first. we understand that we need money for the war, we understand that with all our gratitude and respect for our allies, unfortunately, their help is not always, i would say so, uninterrupted and well timely, there are delays, as it was on at the beginning of the year, and now it turned out that there is a hole in the budget that needs

to be closed, we all perfectly understand that war is about money, money and because of money, but, but i once... wrote in soviet times before that, how, but, look, before we raise taxes, let's see if we have exhausted all internal resources, if we have exhausted all internal reserves, if we already have a perfectly functioning customs without black and gray schemes, or if we have a fully legalized alcohol market , the tobacco market, twists and turns, do we have a bep that actively monitors that there are no offenses and that everyone works. on the white side, and does not crush the business that works on the black side, and this is of the order according to our calculations, from 400 to 450 billion hryvnias, so before, when are starting to raise taxes for white business, let's still do it in order to minimize black and gray business, because who will suffer in the end, the one who works in white will suffer, the

first is what is called conceptually, the second , on the very list of taxes, and we categorically. do not agree with the turnover tax, you know, i came to work in the government in december 1992, that's how i am already, well, how to say, as they say, in lviv, a person is older, and from time to time this idea, let's give a turnover tax , let's enter, well, it appears from time to time, it appeared again, let's give 1%, this is a very insidious and very dangerous tax, we realized that when andriy bought from mykhailo, we paid 1%. and when you produce a complex technological product, you have five or six operations, you no longer pay 1%, you pay 5%, thereby automatically the ukrainian manufacturer begins to lose to the foreign manufacturer. second, in order to manage this tax, there is an administration mechanism, and software, how to pay, starting from accounting, and

ending, as it should be, it's all money, money, it's all time, that's why. from our point of view , to replace the turnover tax with raising the vat tax by 2-3%, it is clear, it has been worked out, and let's say, it will not have the negative effects that this tax will have. it is clear that any increase in taxes is a negative, it is clear that any increase in taxes is a worsening of the economic situation, but the economy and war are at stake here, there is nothing to be done. next, what we are against. but we speak, this is a promotion taxation of natural persons, this will lead to the fact that we now have from 30 to 40% working in the shadows, will lead to the fact that people will stop working more, and the number of those who will work illegally will increase even more, so here are the three positions that we are against we are actively speaking, we

have a meeting planned with danylo hetmantsev next week from monday, i will speak there and what if yes, by the way... if the dear viewers can express their wishes, andriy, you have a chat, at you have a telegram channel, i will be very grateful if you then me pass on this information that people will write so that i can say that look, danylo oleksandrovych, people understand that money is needed, but before taxing white business, you need to do this, this and this, that's why he wrote that let's talk professionally, without instagram, without facebook, i agree, let's talk professionally, but it should be... an honest, frank conversation, by the way, the way the privatization of large objects has gone now, which would never, if there was no need for a war, apparently, they did not privatize the same hotel ukraine, in which they lived before these deputies of the verkhovna rada, i don't know where they live now, it used to be traditionally theirs, the same mining chemical company, the former pirtash, which mines titan, and the same

odesa port company, i.e., those objects on which they always made money, here ... the money has to go nowhere, it is being privatized, well, you see, the war forces us to do such things as well, so we will have a dialogue and we will have a conversation that is not entirely pleasant for our government officials, and they are generally ready to listen to these arguments , and and and one more sub-questions, they simply do not understand the needs of business and the principles of the economy in general, or is this some kind of evil intention, i don't know, maybe i don't know, it's just me... you're just saying things that are obvious now, obvious to journalists, obvious to our viewers, it is obvious to all people who have a business that what is wrong with itmantsev, andriy, there are no... there are no round idiots and no fools, they understand everything perfectly, i understand them as a former official, it is much

easier to tax a white business while working, than struggling with twists, schemes, interests, you understand, so you remember the old phrase, if the stars light up, then someone needs it, if a cigarette factory worked in vinky, then someone needed it and did not pay tax at the same time, and then when the political will appeared this factory. closed, here is a living example for you, and there are a dozen more such factories in ukraine, of course, that this is unpleasant, of course, that it causes opposition, of course, that this is such a difficult situation, it is easier to impose a tax, but officials always follow the path of least resistance , then we get involved, the public gets involved society says: no, it won’t be like that, if you want, then do it like this, as long as there was resistance to the reboot, the story has just begun, everything will still be ahead, but... i took the first step, so everyone understands everything perfectly, but you know, dear government, and this from the first day of the existence of the soviet state, realizing that nothing just happens, always

wants simple solutions, with one hand, you know, how to make such a magical touch, once the money appeared and everything became fine , well , always, i once said the minister of economy roman vasiliovych shek, an old deshplanov in the ssr, your fairy tale will never become ... a fairy tale, yes, and here too i really want to make a simple decision that would fill the money, but unfortunately it does not work, well, there is a simple solution, in fact there is only a minute left, it is to take out the economic reservation a little bit, to make a salary, you and i have to talk about this topic next time, we agree, mr. mykhailo, thank you, mykhailo nepran, the first vice-present of the ukrainian chamber of industry was with us, we hope , that will hear him and others the authorities will take into account these wishes of people involved in the economy, and will not pretend that these are just democratic discussions. dear friends, we still have a question that people who

are in power and have their own business or lobby for business, this business will not pay those taxes, it's just that i don't know, i won't see that mr. mykhailo said, well , these are also absolutely obvious things, dear friends, we still have one hour to go, we will talk about the olympic games, we will talk about... the opening of the olympic games, what a huge disturbance made, let's talk about the russian economy and what happened to it, whether it is still alive or already bent, all this will be in the future, and we urge you to stay with us, the espresso tv channel continues, and we also urge you to report, because the collection ours is not closed yet, and we still need to raise a lot of money, but we are doing well with you, so quickly scan this qr code a little more on... your screens will be, we have about 13 uah left to do, close the weekly norm of 47 hryvnias, so i am waiting for your donations and we are waiting for you with

andriy saichuk, we will return at 16:10 and stay with es. standing up for protection from the sky is a conscious choice. this is my vocation, to be a pilot and protect our ukraine. everyone understands why we are doing this, everyone understands the ultimate goal, it is the defense, the defense of our country, russian icebreakers have arrived here, and they are here and there, you have no aviation, here, hello, we are here, they have there is such a song that they want, these are boys, girls from god. so let's go now, we usually do this, if

we go in the car, we speak quietly, because the child is sleeping, but where is dad? which is very difficult, as she pretends, and she still needs a little, as they say, adaptation, adaptation, yes, what they want from her, because she woke up, immediately saw the plane, and this is also her weakness, like her father, class, dad, mom, mom doesn't touch, dad, mom doesn't touch dad, yes. it's only yours, don't worry.

everyone has their own profession, there, if a dentist pulls out a tooth, than he doesn’t go there, oh, that’s all, i did a heroic deed there, that’s his job, that’s right, to pull out a tooth to heal it, it’s the same with me, i’d rather not now i will sleep so that later my children and all children can to sleep peacefully at home, my job is

to shoot down chess, a rocket, a flying plane, my dream is yes, i have to shoot down a plane, at such moments , shoot down too, before i fall asleep, i think, it feels that our people really, they are not victorious, no matter how difficult it may be, but they will certainly not be ashamed, as our commander-in-chief said. well, that's it, roughly speaking, we delay and run to the plane. we commemorate the fallen defenders of ukraine. all our compatriots who could still be alive if russia... had not started this war,

it was the kherson direction when they started to go from the crimea, our own crimea, and there they just moved in columns and, unfortunately, they shot down our 125, and you hear on the air that there were two of them, then the second one is no longer... there is no more, and we are returning home, i i understand that there is no longer one whom i covered. everything, stop.

on the one hand, one is overwhelmed with pride for the man, for what he does, what he does for us, for our country. and at the same time, to be honest, since the war began, i probably would have given everything in the world for him to be a teacher, a taxi driver, a builder of something that... well, this is a very dangerous profession, me even his wife, he was so jealous, she is at a certain stage of life, and i say to her, like, world, i say, you understand, now you are not in the first place for me, i say, sorry, not you, i say, now there is a war, now in the first place i have my boys, we have to win the war and i have to save their lives. the first 5 days

just no sleep, nothing, you just constantly, constantly fly, fly, mission, mission, mission and sortie after sortie, well yes, that's how it started, the planes took off from the airfields right during the strikes, it was for.. . was it's not that it's touching, it's shocking, how the strip has already been bombed, he's flying along it, someone who values ​​his own life diverted the russian aviation from the airfields so that they could take off together and take the equipment to operational airfields. there were cases at the beginning of the war that when one or two of our pilots were fighting , three, four or five of them would fight.
