when we became an independent state, in the early 1990s, we were always very wary of our neighbor, and we had no illusions that russia had no plans to invade, and we were always in nato, and in... talked about a possible threat from russia, we, we warned other countries about it, that is why we have been preparing for self-defense for a long time since the beginning of the 90s, that is why we wanted to acquire membership in the eu, and we wanted to join nato, we prepared step by step. and every

year we increased our defense spending by defense and called on other nato countries for this, to defend themselves both individually and jointly, collectively. therefore, yes, we are preparing and we continue to prepare, i can’t say that we started thinking about it, or... preparing only after the 14th year, when russia occupied part of ukraine, or after the start of a full-scale war, we step by step daily did something to protect yourself from this evil, and you must always prepare to defend yourself against this evil, because this evil is not foreseen, this evil can attack any wave, i witnessed it in february 2022, so... you have to constantly

prepare. let's say two more words about ordinary estonians. your country is small, but as far as i know, different people live in different parts, of course. after 2.5 years of the full-scale invasion of ukraine, what is the attitude of the estonians to your government's support of ukraine and to what is happening in ukraine? why am i asking because as far as i know, there are a lot of them in the north east of estonia, in the narva area. of russian-speaking citizens of estonia, whether they support all the actions of your estonian government in support of ukraine? yes, we have had a russian-speaking minority living in estonia for many years, we have been trying to integrate them into estonian society for almost 30 years, and of course.

that we see that there is a certain contingent of people who do not want this integration, they still look more towards russia, but estonia, estonian society and the government of estonia, of course we support ukraine, and further, this is not even a question. .. reduction of such aid, i think, because of the war has been going on for more than 2.5 years, and the brutality of putin's regime is increasing every day, intensifying, and we are ready to help ukraine in the long term, not only for victory, but also for... further, so

the support is increasing, i can say, and if to look at the non-governmental organizations of ordinary citizens who help ukraine, we see that every month, or even every week , support comes from ordinary estonians who collect or provide humanitarian aid. literally yesterday i read that three estonian non-governmental organizations, which have been helping ukraine for more than 2.5 years, again sent a new aid column to ukraine, and there were medical products. and drones and

military aid for the front, for the army, for rescuers, they help and help. continues to arrive and even increases in volume, because, as i said, this fascination with ukraine is very big in estonia, and every day we are shocked by the brutality of the putin regime, that it continues, this brutality is happening, and of course, our support will not decrease , she only will increase i must tell you, we admire the estonians for their support and help to ukraine from the very beginning, because in some countries they try to find some things to justify the fact that they do not want to help, and we admire the estonians, who from the first day of the war helped us and

to support, madam ambassador, i thank you very much for coming, today i have one last question for you: you have been in ukraine for a year, i understand that you have a busy schedule, you came to us. after an important meeting, i don't mean an interview, but such you have a lot of meetings, but do you have time, did you have time this year to travel, travel around ukraine a little, do you have a favorite place in ukraine? definitely, when i came to ukraine a year ago, i told my colleagues that i am an ambassador in ukraine, not in kyiv, which means... that i have to travel a lot and see how local communities live, i have to communicate with people, and so , i was in kharkiv, odesa, rivne, zhytomyr, of course, this is our partner,

a partner region, and i was in many parts of ukraine, and i think that it is important to demonstrate to the local communities that we... support them, and we are not afraid to come to them, to come to these territories, because we understand that what they face every day are these attacks, shelling, alarms, and it is important for me to demonstrate that i am here, i am ready to provide adequate information to my capital, so that they can decide what more... help is needed in this direction or in another direction, so what, i love your country very much, it is very beautiful, very wonderful, i every day i see more and more amazingly beautiful ones

things, and i really like the resilience of ukrainians, and by the way, i was also on the front line at the beginning of march. i said that i needed to talk to the soldiers, see what was happening at the front, and it was during those difficult times, when foreign aid began to be kind of reduced, or delayed, and i then said that i needed to get exactly from the front, this feedback so that i can pass this information on to... so that they can make the necessary decisions about what specifically is needed, so i will continue to to travel, now i want to focus more on those areas that are facing

the most energy crisis and understand what is specifically needed for these regions, so of course i will travel as much as possible. traveling madam ambassador, we thank her for that, and we thank her for all the help and support we receive from the government of estonia and from ordinary estonians, who from the very beginning began to help us defend our country, our independence, our sovereignty and our territorial integrity. madam ambassador, i thank you very, very much for that you joined this conversation today, thank all the citizens of your country for everything you do for us. it was an interview with the ambassador of the republic of estonia to ukraine, anna lee kolk, who came to us a year ago and has already done a lot in this position. the espresso interview will continue, my name is yuriy fizar, see you soon.

see this week in the collaborators program. family betrayal, how a family from kherson sold themselves for positions. our act, a meaningful act, is absolutely decisive. but which of the ukrainian bloggers became a fake minister of culture. greetings, i'm olena kononenko and this is the collaborator program about traitors who are for at the call of their hearts and wallets, they went to serve

the roshytsy occupiers. our today's issue is about those who temporarily paid. territories, is blindly guided by the orders of the kremlin and vainly thinks that punishment will be avoided. he was a failed streamer on youtube, and a stavy minister of culture. a year ago, we already made our choice to unite the regions with russia, and now we confirm our choice: we are together, we are united, we will win. this is artem oleksiyovych lagoisky, born in 1991, originally from the kherson region. he graduated from kherson university state university. was a teacher at the department of economics at kherson university, was the head of the educational and methodological laboratory, and over time artem left teaching and started blogging, created the good games youtube channel with reviews of video games. the nickname was taken by a very eloquent cattle prod. i wonder if he sees himself that way, or was he often

told about it? russia, ukraine, belarus and a number of other countries. this is all our common great motherland. artemko didn't want to be a cattleman for a long time, so he went into business from streaming. in in 2019, he became a co-founder of the bula-stroy company, which was engaged in the organization of construction. when a full-scale war broke out in ukraine, lagoisky fully justified his nickname. under the leadership of the russians, a former youtuber nicknamed bydlo began to take care of cultural issues in the region. in 2022, he became acting. the so-called deputy minister of culture of the kherson region. our history continues, it's just that, unfortunately, our region had a certain period when history was changed, history was twisted, but current history is not forgotten. in the position of deputy, this cultural connoisseur took care of the philharmonic, libraries and museums in the occupied part of the kherson region, as well as

issues of the so-called true history of fairy tales about how great russia is. when the ukrainian troops liberated kherson, artemko fled to the left bank of the dnieper, once again proved his loyalty to the occupiers and received a promotion in the form of a new chair, acting as the fake minister of culture of the kherson region. everything happens transparently, comfortably and most importantly - safely. as the minister of culture, lagoiskyi removes ukrainian literature from libraries, controls that schools teach history beneficial to the kremlin. in every possible way imposes the poor russian culture on the local people, in addition to this, he was also made the head of the regional branch of the assemblies of the peoples of russia, created on the initiative of the president, as a platform for dialogue between society and executive authorities. such industrious work of the rashists did not go unnoticed by

our law enforcement agencies. august 17 , 2023 security service of ukraine. reported lagoisky on suspicion of collaborative activity, he faces up to 10 years in prison. now the case is in the kherson city court, so we are waiting for artemko's streams to play during the convoy. and this is lagoiskyi's deputy in the so-called ministry of culture of the kherson region, larisa anatolyivna kosenko, she is 55. dear compatriots. for the first time in the russian federation, the kherson region elects a president. of the russian federation, chooses the future of our children, ours with you. before becoming a zombified mouthpiece of the kremlin, larisa tried to build a political career in kherson. in 2020, she ran for the kherson city council from the now-banned volodymyr salda bloc party, and fortunately she did not pass. after that, she headed the kherson city department of culture and

the archive of the kherson district state administration. when in 2022, the russian army... occupied the city, kosenka decided to cross out everything that connected her with ukraine and start working for the invaders. according to reports, zmi kosenko called cultural workers in kherson and called to go to work for the russians, but she was not seen in the public field until recently. in that year alone, 50 million books were purchased, which reached the libraries operating on the left bank, that is 110 libraries. in this video, the traitor. reports on the success of the campaign to remove ukrainian literature from the libraries of the occupied left bank and replace them with so-called russian classics. this is how diligently kosenka works. new position, now she is the deputy minister of culture of the kherson region. in general, her betrayal is this family, because while larisa is just waiting for her suspicion, for her husband, a well-known

collaborator serhiy cherevka, our fimida has already waited for the judge. the feeling of patriotism, the feeling of love for the native land, even now unites both soldiers on the battlefield and people who help restore the economy and social sphere of new regions in the rear. serhiy, 49, is from kherson, he devoted almost his entire life to politics, since 1998 he regularly ran for office. in 1998 and 2002, he tried to get into the kherson city council. in 2015 he became deputy mayor of kherson and concurrently headed the regional organization of the kherson party. at that time, he tweeted in ukrainian and took care of the education of children who had temporarily moved away. in the 14th year of the territories, there is indeed a problem of accommodation and provision of modern educational opportunities for children who came to us from luhansk and

donetsk regions. but later he forgot his native language, and began to call the occupied territories part of the great russian empire. in 2017 , charavko left the post of mayor and in the 19th ran for the verkhovna rada from the opposition bloc party, but did not pass. in 2020 . applied to the kherson city council and flew again. i was lucky enough to sit down only in the chair of the deputy of the ship district council of the city of kherson. in his position, he took care of the demographic problems of the region and the mass migration of ukrainians abroad. the situation is catastrophic. in ukraine, for example, the birth rate has decreased by 40% over the last 10 years. for cheravka, killing and torturing ukrainians, occupying the city. villages became not a pain, but an opportunity, which he gladly took advantage of. our act, a meaningful act, definitely determines how we will build, with whom

we will build our future. when the region was occupied, cherevko joyfully went out to the russian soldiers on the main square of kherson with red flags of the ussr. initially, this traitor, together with hauraiter volodymyr saldo, participated in the creation of the so-called committee. rescue for peace and order, the purpose of which was cooperation with the occupation authorities and russia. the invaders appreciated such fruitful work of the seller and gave him the position of deputy of the military-civilian administration oblast in the illegally created occupation body. russia is the motherland. people feel their personal involvement in the creation of history, we see how massively citizens are drawn to the polling stations. when kherson was liberated, traitor. together with other similar fertilizer escaped to the left bank of the region. this enabled our law enforcement agencies to search his apartment. the sbi found there documents

and reports on how the russian pension system was created during the occupation and the work of the post office was improved. to this pile of symbols of the russian federation and scenario of events for victory day and russia day. it is a pity that there was no script for the day of defeat and disappearance, not for the empire, although we are now writing it ourselves. on october 19, 2022 , by decree of the president of ukraine, cheravko was placed on the nsdc sanctions list, at the end of last year he was accused of collaborating. currently, the case has already been referred to the kherson city court. we hope that soon this traitor, like his collaborator wife, will be behind bars, and they will see each other very soon. it there was a program collaborators and i, olena kononenko. if you want to tell us about the kremlin backwaters. write to us at this e-mail address or simply on facebook, together we will send all the traitors after the russian ship. see you in a week on espresso. ten-year-old

ivan monastyrskyi, 13-year-old maria balanovska and 10-year-old serhiy tolstoy. all these children disappeared in the temporarily occupied territories of luhansk region, and for a long time it has not been possible to find out where they are. that is why i really hope for your help, and, of course, i am mostly addressing the residents of the territories of the luhansk region not controlled by ukraine. it is clear that now you do not have ukrainian tv channels broadcasting, but maybe you see this video on social networks. therefore, please be very careful. look into the faces of these children. ivan monastyrskyi, he was last seen in luhansk on march 20 , 2022. since then, unfortunately,

nothing is known about him. maria balano. she is 13 years old, although she looks a little smaller in this photo, but notice that she has blonde and long hair, dark eyes, the missing girl in the village of stanytsia luhansk, which is currently under occupation, the connection with maria was cut off at the very beginning of the full-scale invasion of russia, and this is serhiy tolsty, he disappeared on february 24, 2022 in lysychansk. the boy has light hair and light eyes. unfortunately, there is no more information about serhii, his relatives, or the circumstances of his disappearance. if suddenly any of you have information about the possible whereabouts of ivan, maria and serhiy, or you know at least something about them, immediately notify the magnolia children's search service. even a small piece of news can become very important you can call us at any time of the day by dialing the short number 116.

missing due to circumstances. somehow related to the war, but at the same time, as before the war, now there are many cases when children disappear due to running away from home, and mostly this teenagers the children's search service has prepared a series of advice for parents from a psychologist about the first things you should do to prevent a child from running away from home. one of these tips is the parents' respect for the child. show respect for the child's personality, for his personal. to her things, often we do not notice how our children grow up, and what was normal in behavior with a small child is completely unacceptable in behavior with a teenager, for example, and we cannot enter a room without knocking on a teenager, especially if we we can't go into the bathroom when he's there, we can't rummaging through his personal belongings without permission, you can't read his messages, it all violates his privacy, violates boundaries, makes him feel insecure and drives him to run away,

drives him to...seek safe places somewhere outside the house, do we need that? so, building a healthy relationship between parents and child. the child should have his own space, where parents should not interfere without consent. and most importantly, respect in adolescence is an extremely important factor. we've created a resource for you to report about any crime against a child. anywhere, anytime, just go to the site and report, and we will launch all possible mechanisms to punish the criminal. stopcrime ua.
