of the subjects of issuing diplomas of doctor of philosophy, moreover, only in september 2014 the verkhovna rada adopted changes that equated the title of candidate of sciences to the scientific degree of doctor of philosophy. luhansky could not explain how it happened, nor could he remember the name of the specialty on which he wrote a scientific dissertation. in what specialty did you defend yourself? the name of the specialty, clearly? i defended myself, i had a topic. article 382, ​​this is criminal liability for failure to comply with a court decision, i remember, well, i haven't for a long time i saw my diploma, i took off photocopies, i just don't remember. it should be noted that it may not only be a matter of lying when taking office, but also possible embezzlement of the state, since judges and military personnel receive a supplement to their official salary for having a scientific degree, however, volodymyr luhanskyi received such a supplement. when

he worked as a judge and served is still unknown. the supreme council of justice finally dismissed from their positions the judge of the makariv district court oleksiy tandyr and the judge of the cassation administrative court as part of the supreme the court of vsevolod knyaz. employees of themis were fired for committing a significant disciplinary offense. we will remind, last year oleksiy tandyr, in a state of alcoholic intoxication , beat to death a soldier of the national guard, vadym bondarenko. vsevolod knyaz under in receiving a record bribe, almost 3 million dollars. however, the prince was released not because of the biggest corruption in the history of the judicial system, but because of the undervalued value of the rented apartment. the supreme council of justice decided to dismiss prince vsevolod serhiyovych from the post of cassation administrative judge court as part of the supreme court on the basis of point three of part six of article 126 of the constitution of ukraine. instead, a complaint to the vrp was filed four years ago by the dere foundation, which was directly related to the bribe. and should

have ended with the prince's release, was never considered. the work on the complaint regarding the bribe of the ex-head of the supreme court was assigned to serhiy burlakov, a member of the supreme council of justice, a figure in our investigations, and he, in turn, was in no hurry. the record holder simply for, firstly , closing cases, and secondly, for not being involved in accountability of judges where they need to be held accountable. according to experts, burlakov is considered a creature of borys gulka, the head of the civil court of the supreme court, one of the most influential judges and a member of the so-called judicial mafia, which has been destroying the judicial system of ukraine all these years. since serhii burlakov himself currently holds an influential position in the supreme administrative court, he has all the leverage to manipulate the consideration of judges' complaints. that is, to dismiss the prince from his post, while not investigating the facts of global corruption in the supreme court a completely different, much smaller and actually artificial case was initiated. in... in december

2023, the pechersk district court of kyiv received materials from nazk about bringing the princes to administrative responsibility for renting an apartment with an area of ​​133 m2 at a price lower than the minimum market value, namely for 100 uah per month. such prices really cannot be found even on the outskirts of the capital, unlike in the very heart of kyiv, the government quarter, where knyazum lived since 2017. at the same time , the ex-chairman of the supreme court and his lease. not were close relatives, so he had no right to accept a gift in the form of such a significant discount on the princes' housing. from the resolution of the pechersk district court of kyiv. during the discussion of the rental price of the apartment and approval of the rent offer in the amount of one thousand hryvnias, despite the private property interest, knyazov was obliged to immediately take such measures, to refuse the offer, to attract witnesses, if possible, to inform in writing about the offer of the direct supervisor. in the presence or head

of specially authorized subjects in the field anti-corruption. instead, knyazov accepted an offer to rent housing for 100 hryvnias per month and systematically used the gift he received. in this way, over the years of renting the princes , he saved almost 1 million hryvnias. the court prosecuted him for this administrative offense and imposed a fine of uah 2,500. information about non-compliance with anti-corruption legislation was also forwarded to the verkhovna rada. justice, and instead of strengthening the corrupt history of the prince with a bribe, the vrp actually undertook to consider only a misdemeanor with rent an apartment. council member serhiy burlakov dragged out the consideration of the bribery complaint in the supreme court so much that knyazum was finally released only on the grounds of underpayment of rent . the circular guarantee has already, excuse me, had enough, it has been going on for years and decades, and the citizens are suffering, ukraine is suffering. in the supreme council of justice , it was not possible to establish justice, at

the same time, the case of an alleged corruption crime, in which, in addition to the prince, the vast majority of the members of the grand chamber of the supreme court could be involved, is losing its relevance court we know that at least 13 judges were there in the collegium in the case where knyazev took a bribe, and with great probability, many facts in this case indicate that this bribe could have been intended not only for knyazev, but also for some other judges from the grand chamber, i.e., the key conclusion, the highest judicial instance, the supreme court in our country urgently needs to be cleaned, all the princes. as a result of the decision of the vrp, he promised to appeal his dismissal in court, and it will only be about the circumstances of the housing lease. meanwhile, the story of with the biggest bribe in the judicial system, thanks to such members of the vrp as serhii borlakov, she lost any chance to be considered by the supreme council of justice. today i have

everything, it was judicial control and i am tetyana shustrova. if you know the facts of corruption in the judicial system, or you want to tell about... an unscrupulous judge, write to me on facebook or to the e-mail address you see on your screens, we will meet in exactly a week, all the best! congratulations, please look carefully at the photo. this boy, unfortunately, he went missing and for more than a year nothing is known about him, his name is vlad lyubichev and he is 12 years old, he disappeared in the city of vovchansk in the kharkiv region on june 1, 2023. if you know anything

invite interesting guests to this studio in order to talk with them about interesting topics. and my interlocutor today, extraordinary and authoritative, the ambassador of the republic of estonia in ukraine, anneli kolk. i will talk to her about important things, about mutual relations between estonia and ukraine, about the help we have received, continue to receive, and i am sure we will continue to receive from ours. countries, and about many other things. madam ambassador, i congratulate you, thank you very much for joining me today, for coming here, thank you, thank you so much, thank you very much for inviting me, thank you, look, first, the question will be as follows , estonia is a relatively small country compared to other european countries, of course there are smaller ones, but estonia is small, but despite all this, we received a lot of help from your country. both financial and military, what is this, i don't know, paradox, maybe why this is

so, or is it because of the knowledge of history, or maybe something else is hidden in it? well, yes of course, yes, of course, one of the main reasons is that we have a common history, we were occupied by the soviet union, we lived together under occupation, we... of course, that was one of the reasons, but i think the main reason why estonia helps. helped and will help ukraine, is that estonians love ukrainians very much, we

admire how you behave against this russian evil, how you bravely and resolutely fight against brutality, genocide, and war crimes, and i think that this is the biggest the reason why estonia wants to... help ukraine, and this brutal war has been going on for more than two years, and estonia's fascination with ukraine is growing even more, growing because you continue to defend your country, fight for your people, for your cultural identity , all this is very expensive and very close to estonians, well, on the one hand , it's bad that... this common history that you mentioned unites us, and on the other hand, it's good that it unites us, because we

we feel how close we are to each other, even though we are separated by some, some kilometers separate us, and none the less, but still speaking about aid, are there any statistics, exactly how much aid, for example, military or financial we have already received so far from the republic of estonia, there are scoops. reliable statistics, estonia provided from the beginning a full-scale invasion of more than 26 million euros in humanitarian aid and e. this is both government, state aid, aid from the private sector and ordinary ordinary citizens. as for military aid, it has already reached more than 500 million. if we compare it with gdp, then estonia provided aid for more than 1-3% of its gdp, which

means that we are one of the most active. of countries that support ukraine, in addition, the government of estonia decided at the end of last year that they will allocate for the next four years, 0.25% of our gdp annually for ukraine, specifically for military aid, for recovery, so our aid will definitely continue to estonia as well. will do everything possible to increase humanitarian and other aid to ukraine. well, i can only answer that in estonian. i'll try, madam ambassador, don't criticize my accent too much. tanantei dvaga. for everything estonia does for us. well, but look, one more point, a few months ago, the parliament of estonia passed a law, and

then this law was ratified by the president of estonia, which this law allows the use of freezing. russian assets to compensate for the damages that russia caused in this aggressive war in ukraine, and it has been several months, it seems two months have passed since this law came into force, have there already been any transfers, this is the first question, to ukraine, i have in mind, and the second question is whether other western countries took the example of estonia, because estonia was the first western ukraine to adopt such a law. yes, of course, estonia was one of the first countries that started talking about the need to use frozen russian assets for the restoration of ukraine, due to the fact that the aggressor has to pay the price for it, and we were one of the first countries to say two years ago

that we need to start reconstruction, the restoration of ukraine already during the war, there is no need to... until it ends, because we need to give people hope and help refugees, those who left ukraine and then started to return, we tried to understand, analyze all possible ways to make russia pay the price for the damage it caused ukraine, and we were pioneers in... the introduction of such legislation regarding the use of frozen russian assets for the restoration of ukraine, and these assets are not only state assets, they are also the property of private individuals and legal entities in estonia, all those who

are under international sanctions, then the law was. a recent one was adopted, and the processes of regulation are still ongoing, since everything must comply with international rules so that we do not create unnecessary problems for ukraine in the years to come. so we're working on that right now, and i think we're making great progress in this direction is happening. i hope that we will be able to demonstrate to the whole world that it is possible, that it is possible. to use all the frozen assets and the profits of these assets, and not just directly, the profits for the fact that we simply held these assets before. you have set a very good example for western countries by passing this law, other countries, in your opinion, personal opinion, why they

do not pass such laws, just your personal opinion, out of fear, is it possible that... something else, to me it is very difficult to say why those or other countries do something or don't do something, but i think that there are still some legal issues, legal issues that countries are discussing, but estonia is really our national. such a view to prove that we can do it without violating european or international. i really hope that the western partners will see this, and will not delay and pass similar laws in their countries, but now we move on to something else:

the post-war reconstruction of ukraine, after all, even this reconstruction is already underway in different parts of ukraine, and those that were under temporary occupation in the first days of the war. tell me, please, does estonia have any projects, in this case state projects, huh? or non- state projects that help rebuild ukrainian cities and villages. yes, yes, of course, as i already said, we started this work already in the 22nd year, and all these projects related to reconstruction in ukraine began then, in particular in the zhytomyr region, which is conventionally ours, our region, our region, since estonia is a small country and... and we have limited resources, we thought that we should approach the issue of restoring ukraine very comprehensively, that's why we chose one

area, one region, and we provide assistance for reconstruction right there, we helped build a new kindergarten, and we conduct training for teachers, educators for... in order for such assistance to be long-term, simply not just to build one house or one shelter, but to help in such a way that it is long-term and covers the problems faced by a specific region, of course, but they talked about the money that comes from estonia, or, for example, the military the support that goes from estonia to ukraine, let's talk now about... the help that ukrainians who are currently in the territory of the republic of estonia receive, do you have any statistics at this very moment, how many citizens of ukraine

are there and is there any tendency to return to ukraine? yes, of course, we have statistics on ukrainians living now in estonia, and we will provide... them from the first day of their arrival in estonia any assistance, any assistance that we could provide, this is medical assistance, social protection, education, we also opened two special schools, specialized schools for ukrainian children, where they can study in the estonian language, but keep their... study according to the ukrainian curriculum, so we are trying to do everything

for the ukrainian refugees who are in estonia so that they do not lose this connection with their country, with their culture. of course, we have other plans, projects, but the main slogan of the government. is that it is necessary for ukrainians to feel that they belong here are welcomed in estonia, and i can confidently say that ukrainians in estonia definitely feel that they are welcomed in this country, since my daughter has been living in the territory of the republic of estonia for more than two years, she studies there and she knows how estonians think, how estonians help and how estonians try to do everything to bring our community closer. victory over the russian aggressor. now a little about the victory: in estonia, besides, of course, women and children, there are many men who uh got,

this is not a temporary shelter, a temporary protection, it is called, as far as i understand, in estonia, please tell me, now in many, at least in eastern european countries, they are talking about the fact that they are somehow trying to cooperate with the government of ukraine regarding men. who are subject to conscription into the army and who are militarily obliged to somehow help these men, well , at least register in ukraine with the relevant authorities, and maybe even return to ukraine, is there something similar in estonia? yes, such discussions, such requests some time ago... started coming in, but our previous prime minister said that because people are living in the territory.

legally, we gave them temporary permits for residence and temporary protection, and we do not plan to send them back to ukraine, because we have rules, we have obligations, and this also comes from european legislation, that is... we have no plans to send them back to ukraine, but in this sense we cooperate with the ukrainian authorities, with the ukrainian embassy in tallinn, and we understand that there are needs in ukraine, but i think that many ukrainians living in ukraine want to return to their country, they are waiting for such an opportunity. on

the possibility of return, this was one of the reasons why we started the reconstruction so early, so that people could see the perspective of the future, we have kindergartens, our local communities, etc., to make it easier for people to return, we usually cooperate with the ukrainian authorities, for to understand how to help. and ukrainians, but as i say, we are not going to send them back if they don't they want, of course, madam ambassador, one more question, and the question, one might say, from ukrainian students studying in estonia, recently, well, literally a month or two ago, information appeared that, for example, in lithuania, they are going to adopted a law according to which

benefits will be taken away from ukrainians. exchange students, are they going to do something like that in estonia or not? and we have ukrainian students who have been studying in estonian universities for many years, even before the full-scale war. and we have many ukrainian students, and we are proud of them, because they are very smart, they are very eager to learn, and so far, well, i have not had any information about the government's plans to stop the aid for the programs that are currently active, so ukrainian students should calm down, everything will be fine thanks to our, of course, brothers and sisters in estonia,

let's go now ... now let's return a little to , unfortunately, the military theme and talk about red lines, these red lines are talked about a lot in the west, for for someone they are, for someone they are clearly defined, for someone they are very unclear, but for estonia in this war, in our joint war, i will call it that, in our joint war with the russian aggressor, are there any red lines? this is my favorite question. thanks for him. estonia has never spoken of any red lines. for us, the most important thing, one of the most important things, is integrity, territorial integrity, democracy, cultural identity of people. and we...

strive for this in estonia, in our country, and this is what we really like in ukraine. and we don't see any red lines when it comes to russia's brutal war against ukraine, all the war crimes, genocide that we believe they committed. that there cannot be any red lines here, and our goal is to preserve ukrainian independence, democracy, territorial integrity, that is why we support ukraine.
