in his case, according to the former owner of the white house, who has a good chance of returning to the main american estate for another four years, putin is an excellent negotiator and should have been talked to before he invaded ukraine, but - says donald trump, joe biden didn't. instead, he says, instead of negotiating with putin, his successor , a democrat and now the current president of the united states of america, started talking nonsense about... for example, he said that ukraine can now become a member of nato. it can start in georgia war if the opposition representatives win the elections. prime minister irakli kobakhidze told journalists about this. according to him, everything should be done so that georgia does not follow in the footsteps of ukraine, because this way it can be drawn into the war, opening a second front against russia. according to the head of the georgian government, this is exactly what the representatives want. of the opposition party

united national movement, if theoretically allowed, then in a maximum of a week they will take actions that will once again lead georgia to war - sums up mr. prime minister irakli kobakhidze. the enemies of israel, who threaten an unprecedented shelling of our country, can count on such an answer, which no one has ever given them before. defense minister yevreskyi issued such a warning to iran and the shiite hezbollah movement. state yoav ggaland, he said this during a meeting with recruits of the israel defense forces at a military base in the central part of the country. according to the head of israel's defense department, his country has serious capabilities for this, and therefore he advised the enemies, the leadership of the islamic republic, to come to their senses and not do anything that they may regret later.

i always try to start with news about international support. ukraine received another tranche from the european union today. we are talking about the amount of more than 4 billion. prime minister denys shmyhal said. funds were allocated within the limits of the previously approved program for 50 billion. they will be directed to social programs and the humanitarian sphere. denys shmyhal reminded that since the beginning of the year, the eu has provided our state with more than 12 billion euros in budget support. russia and ukraine are going to supply gas to of europe through the station in suzhi, despite the battle near the transit station. point, the bloomberg agency reported. anonymous interlocutors say that moscow and kyiv have a financial incentive for this. for our country, fuel transit provides vital funds for the economy, while the eu remains one of the largest buyers of fuel from the aggressor country. and here is the most important thing:

ukraine wants our country to be considered a reliable partner of the european bloc. the authorities hope that the traders there will use more on... huge underground storages to store gas in the winter, say bloomberg analysts. ukraine sits at the top of the mineral resources that are needed in the 21st century at a price of almost a trillion dollars. republican lynsey graham hopes that this year the states and our country will reach a strategic agreement on the future of critical minerals, thus helping the west and not spending it. into the hands of putin these minerals. we are talking about lithium, in particular, and titanium ores. his colleague, democrat blumenthal, noted that the united states currently purchases these minerals in other states, however, plan to overcome that dependence and cooperate, in particular with us.

so, vasyl, you and i have repeatedly touched on the topic of rare earth minerals, and in fact, well, you have to understand that... one of putin's goals is the minerals of ukraine, here we are talking not only about lithium and titanium ores, which are needed for the defense complex, here we are generally talking about a number of cops, it is electronics, chips, it is all there, it is used separately, as international experts say, if putin managed to get hold of these minerals, he in fact, it would increase the pressure on the countries of the west, precisely such minerals are becoming less and less in the european union, in the states, and in particular when... the european union switches to green energy, this is where lithium is needed, and these minerals are needed for the energy to work, what is being done , and here the question is whether ukraine has reserves of such rare earth metals, whether they are comparable or slightly smaller than china, that is, relatively speaking, we are a direct competitor on the market, but one must understand

one simple truth, that politics is continuation of the economy, war is politics by other methods, so we must not forget that despite the fact that russia is simply an existential enemy, they certainly want more, maybe someone else. wants to take away economic power through them, as they say, knock the platform out from under our feet, well, thank god, they do not allow the armed forces of ukraine to do this, well , you have to understand that this is really a war not only for the fact that there is no life in ukraine either, and this is a war for resources. let's move on, the higher anti-corruption court chose preventive measures for the suspects in the case of the ex-deputy minister energy industry, 24-hour house arrest was ordered for the former head of a state-owned enterprise, who, according to ... investigators, participated in a corruption scheme, another suspect, the head of a limited liability company, was ordered to be held in custody with an alternative bail of 7 million hryvnias. let me remind you that we reported yesterday that the security service detained half a million dollars in bribes from the former deputy minister of energy oleksandr hale.

siiloviks reported that the official demanded money from the heads of state mines of lviv oblast and volyn for the transfer of unique equipment that was planned to be delivered from... donetsk region. the national bank of ukraine plans to finish work on the limitation of pi-2 transfers for individuals. the works are going to be finished by the end of the week. this was announced by the head of the national bank, andriy pishnyi. so, let's find out. the changes are as follows: no more than 30 transactions per month for one account and up to uah 100,000 in volume. the head of the national bank says that this will actually strengthen the fight against the so-called drops, that is, banks. accounts of ordinary ukrainians who give theirs details for the use of third parties, often tax-free funds passed through these accounts. this is a danger not only for the state budget, but also for ordinary ukrainians themselves, pyshnyi says, because by giving one's bank details, a card, to someone else,

a person is responsible for everything that someone did with that account. there were more than 2 billion in dollars and euros. sent to russia from the united arab emirates and turkey since march 2022, since the united states and the eu banned the export of their banknotes to the aggressor country. tell me about it. reuters reports, citing customs data, the kremlin has managed to circumvent sanctions here that block the import of cash, analysts suggest that the currency remains a tool for trade and travel in arefia, despite moscow's efforts to reduce dependence on it. according to russian economist dmytro pelivogo, the dollar is still a reliable currency for private individuals there, particularly for savings. we see. after all, no matter what, the dollar is still a stable currency in muscovy, in general,

how is the russian economy holding up now during the war and what margin of safety is there, we will talk about this further with the guest who joins the conversation, yuliya pavytska, head of the sanctions direction of the analytical center of the kyiv school of economics, good evening, good evening, ms. yulia, and here such a question, we see essentially the stability of the russian gross domestic product , despite the fact that many packages of sanctions have already been implemented against the aggressor country, in your opinion, has the international community not revised or overestimated the possible reserve strength of the russian gdp, analyze. first of all, i want to point out that it is wrong to evaluate the effectiveness and effect of sanctions solely on the gdp data of the russian federation, since the figures we are currently observing are solely the result of fiscal stimulus. momentum from extremely high record state expenditures, which finance the sphere of the military-industrial

complex, and here it is worth understanding that this is not normal growth, as according to a textbook on economic theory, because it is not qualitative growth, there are no investments, because more everything that the military-industrial complex generates, it is quite efficient, all of it is destroyed at the front, so it does not lead to some kind of... this is the growth of quality, and actually a very big question now is how exactly the russian economy will react, when finally this the fiscal impulse will end when they either won't be able to implement it there, or after the results of the ukrainian victory, when they won't make such large expenditures. as for the overall effectiveness of sanctions, here we should admit that in general, expectations from sanctions at the beginning there were invasions. exceeded and it is also important to understand that it was not sufficiently communicated

exactly how sanctions work over time, because really, when sanctions are introduced, at the beginning there is the greatest effectiveness in the short term, because there is a certain shock to the market, but then it adapts, russia is looking for new methods of circumventing sanctions, it is actually important that the countries of the sanctions coalition continue to strengthen these... in order to maintain this level of pressure and the effect of sanctions on certain sectors of the russian economy, it is also necessary to take into account that sanctions are not united in terms of countries, there are up to 40 countries in the sanctions coalition, which to a certain extent adhere to and introduce sanctions restrictions, while at the same time there remain the same friendly countries for which cooperation with russia remains. and this is just business, the same china, india and turkey, other smaller countries

that are in the zone of influence of the russian federation, actually help them find ways to circumvent sanctions. mrs. yulia, here is a question about such a powerful work of the russian central bank, here we must give credit to the head of the central bank of russia, ms. nabiulinium, in fact, applied mechanisms. as much as possible, you can talk and write books about their professionalism, but how much of this margin of safety can be enough and what the consequences can be, well, here is the collapse of the financial system in essence, i am sure that this collapse is brewing, unfortunately, i have to absolutely agree with you, that it is really worth recognizing the professionalism of nabiulnaya and the fact that the central bank of the russian federation really has a full mandate to act in order to obtain the economic situation every day. which they use for them is problematic that half of them

gold and foreign exchange reserves remain frozen, and it is more difficult for them to get the ruble exchange rate, they are also now very worried about the development and acceleration of inflation, since it is precisely also stimulated by high payments for the same military, and in fact they recently raised the discount rate by two percentage points and made it more expensive . more money in the economy, in terms of instruments that remain with the central bank, they may still bring back tighter currency restrictions, as they have recently loosened them, but also the question of which it will work and be effective within the limits, because now the situation in the russian economy is such that on the one hand they are clamping down on it, and on the other hand it is, as you know , a pipe, you have closed one part of the hole, but somewhere in another part of the economy the pressure is starting to increase, and the fact that the central bank will not only increase the discount

rate, but also in principle consider the possibility of a further increase, creates problems. for the russian ministry of finance, namely, it is extremely difficult for them to attract domestic debt to finance the budget, and in fact, the greater the pressure on budget revenues, the more difficult it will be for the russian government to find ways to finance it, taking into account the fact that the cost of internal debt for it is constantly increasing, and they cannot go outside, and china itself is in no hurry to lend them a financial hand. ms. yulia, and the last question, but it is quite important, i would like to hear your opinion, well, the revenues from oil trade are still significant, the kremlin receives despite the sanctions, despite the upper limit of the sale of bloody barrels, well, it uses the so-called shadow fleet for this, it is clear that some companies there is information, they still comply with the sanctions,

they try not to work with the aggressor country, but nevertheless, is it possible to apply secondary sanctions? for those entrepreneurs who help russia sell barrels abroad by tankers. yes, in fact, oil revenues remain the biggest challenge, now they fluctuate at the level of 17 billion dollars a month, which russia receives from the export of oil and oil products, and indeed, the shadow fleet is the main challenge and the mechanism, how do they bypass sanctions? i want to point out that our partners... practice imposing sanctions specifically on tankers, and these tankers are quite effective in our estimation, because most of the tankers are completely withdrawn from trade and in general the whole market does not cooperate with them, and we currently have only one case 55, which violated the sanctions, in fact, we have already passed on all the information to the partners

so that secondary sanctions were imposed on the violator and those companies that interacted with this tanker, you absolutely correctly point out that the partners should more actively bring to justice those who interact, and are violators of sanctions, we also actively call for this strategy of sanctioning tankers in general to be expanded, because it most effectively removes these tankers from access to the russian federation, and the further they go, the more problematic it will be to attract new tankers , also in terms of additional costs. for their budget, thank you for the thorough analysis, yuliya pavytska, the head of the sanction direction of the analytical center of the kyiv school of economics was in touch, i will add vasyl here, in one from your programs, the economist ivan us said that the strength of the russian economy would be enough for at least one more year, this figure was also heard. i will conclude the column about

money during the war with this, there will be more later, watch us. thank you oleksandr morchyvka, thank you, dear ladies, who spoke in detail about the topics that are worth knowing about. the next topic of conversation will be about football, and i will think that today i am in white and blue colors, a white t-shirt, a blue jacket, and today dynamo will decide its fate in the champions league decides whether to go further or switch to the europa league. the battle will take place, well i hope it will still be a good match, and not right there a battle in glasgow, in scotland at the kendon park stadium, and kendon park, and olaskovach, a correspondent of radio liberty in great britain, is coming there now, he will talk about the atmosphere before the match, and perhaps other details that have already become known, and most importantly, the support of the ukrainians, how powerful it will be, mr. lesya, i congratulate you, please tell me,

greetings from glasgow, this is the city today live football today it is about the fact that i am currently standing in front of the hamlin park stadium, where glasgow rangers will play dynamo kyiv. the only thing that inspires us is that this stadium, hundred park is not the home stadium of glasgow rangers. glasgow rangers home stadium ibox is closed for renovations so dynamo kyiv who as we all know play in... european cup home games abroad, likewise to some extent glasgow rangers will be playing their home game away from theirs so would speak home stadium, from so everything is possible, i spoke with by a few reviewers from the glasgow rangers website with people from glasgow magazines and they

said it was very important because the actual atmosphere at stadiumix, which is now, as i said, closed for redevelopment, is different to the atmosphere at hundred park , where let's not forget. that ukraine won two important victories, let's go back to 2021, when ukraine beat sweden in the face-off games literally in the last minutes of the game, thanks to dovbyk's goal. 2:1, let's not forget about 3:1 in contact games before the world cup on hamdoni. and so, oleksandr shavkovskyi, coach of dynamo kyiv, said that handon pak is such a pretty... let's say, a lucky stick for ukrainian teams, not only for the national team of ukraine, but also for any ukrainian

team, in particular now dynamo-kyiv . so, we'll see what happens, plus, again, speaking to the glasgow commentators, the glasgow rainers experts, they're all trying, shall we say. keep it all quite quite pessimistic, why, because for them, because the new coach of glasgow rangers philippe clemont, a belgian french-speaking coach and former player, is trying to introduce a european style of football, while glasgow rangers have always played scottish football, big attack, big physical loads, so the team is a bit... so let's see, at 19:45 local time time, 21:45 kyiv time, we will see what will happen on the field. thank you very much, well, let the game be

fair and win stronger, but of course we ukrainians cheer for kyiv. dynamo, oles kovach, correspondent in great britain, radio svoboda. i don't know, maybe the new coach wants to teach the scots to play european football, but at least. the match took place in lublin, in lublin, poland, showed that scotland, when it was necessary to score, played exactly scottish football, crosses, headers, crosses, but one of which was fatal for dynamo kyiv, but 1:1, chances level, and of course, dynamo is a team that can solve this issue, so good luck, and let's not forget, in any case, it is emotional support that is important for fans, and secondly... what is it after all, the final points for the rating of ukrainian teams in european cups, it is also very important, so it would be desirable to win, but further on ukraine will be waiting

for the next opponent in the champions league, if they go further, so now i and now further in us cultural news review, we talked a little about sports, because we could n't not talk about it today, especially since our correspondent was, well, the correspondent of radio liberty was in... but now about, but now on to what will be about language in the culture section with iryna chechenina, motanka from spare parts, the fall of the empire and space for interpretations. on the territory of sofia of kyiv, you can now see a series of sculptures by ukrainian artists, all this within the framework of the international open-air sculpture biennial. ilyana chenina will now show us some of them and tell us about the first reaction of the first viewers. please, you have the word. good evening. congratulations vasyla, greetings to our viewers, the reaction is very different, but i observe

visitors who watch different things, get acquainted with visual art in general, and i will say that they really need explanations artists, i will talk about some of them in a second. so, here one of the artists, a total of 12 artists presented their sculptures, more precisely 12 will be in september, because three more artists are finalizing their works and will present them very soon, so we want to show you one of them, and i will give you the explanation of the artist konstantin. this work is called the fall of the empire in ukrainian or in english game over, and i thought that it absolutely has an unambiguous

interpretation, because the fall of the empire. what else can come to mind with you and me, if not there, me i don’t know, some kind of collective putin who is falling, who is breaking down, whose last days are coming, that’s how he seems to be big, scary, but a little bit leaky, he will crumble now, but the artist, when he was here and explained, and here and to colleagues and to all of us that he invested in this sculpture, he said that he invested a lot, because firstly, it took a very long time... and his vision changed, and secondly, he, like many other artists, artists and curators, said that in general the viewers themselves should interpret what they see there, if you see something different, then this is the right answer, and he is pleased when each viewer sees something different, it is enough that not everyone shares an opinion, because there are viewers who want to hear and see exactly

the idea... which put by the author, not what they themselves came up with, but in any case, i will say that this is all happening on the territory of sofia of kyiv, the organizers of this exhibition guessed very well, because from thursday the kyiv bouquet stage festival starts here. and there will be a lot of people here we will tell you about it separately, while the visitors are there in the corner, something has already started, i will tell you what is here, now you will be able to see the video that we did not shoot for you, first of all... motanki, i think that this very instagrammable sculptures, right at the beginning, when you enter sofia kyivska, there are motanki oli rundyakyak, a ukrainian artist who lives in the united states, and she generally specializes in motanki, we once had a big exhibition of her in kyiv, and they are very interesting, different interesting interpretation, maybe you saw different spare parts here, i think that these are spare parts, unfortunately, mrs. ola is not there, she is in

the states, her husband came before... she said hello to everyone, said that she will come, and also there is a large-scale sculpture of minin, which is such a black and white rugby player, it seems to me that people will also take a lot of photos with him, in general, people take photos with these sculptures, and olesya dvoryk-halyk also told me, told me when the sculpture behind is also very instagrammable, it is made of such ceramics and... many other artists also said that yes, it would be very cool if these sculptures were exhibited somewhere in the city space, so that people could see them all the time, but the artists say that it's not really them, they worry about their sculptures, because people start to touch them or even steal something if something is attached badly, so maybe, unfortunately, we don't see a lot of such sculptures in our cities, because everyone is worried, but i think that everything is ahead

and... in we will see a culture in these urban sculptures, because they are really very decorate the city and make various walks much more interesting. that's it , that's all, i'll go, i'll probably talk to a few more artists, thank you very much lena chechen, our beautiful lena, of course, but we'll also look a little up, at the sky, because right now the clouds are incredibly beautiful, especially they are very beautiful here in the second half of summer, in august, and of course we will talk not only about their beauty, but also about their, so to speak, scientific essence, and about their classification, so what are the clouds like, or rather, what are clouds, well, by the way, the ones you saw are so beautiful now, well, they are a little different, cumulus

clouds of white color, they are somewhere... at an altitude of 1-2 km to 5 km.
