undermine american democracy. if he wins this nomination, i mean this election, watch what happens, it's a danger. he poses a real danger to american security. biden explained that he made the decision to withdraw from the race to protect democracy and unite the democratic party in the fight against trump's return to power. he also admitted that his age became a challenge in his election campaign. regarding kamala, garis biden said he was ready to help her. in particular, he will campaign for harris in key pennsylvania and other states. i am going to campaign in other states as well and i am going to do whatever kamala feels is necessary to help the most. the american president also spoke positively about garis' decision to choose tim walz as his vice-presidential candidate. he's my type

of person, he's genuine, he's smart. i have known him for several decades. i think it's a great team. the pre-election race in the united states is entering a decisive phase. the staff of presidential candidate donald trump has already announced plans to hold three televised debates with democratic candidate kamela harris. however , the latter has not yet responded to the proposal of its main political rival. trump himself is also wasting no time and this week went live on one of the most popular social networks in the world, x, the former twitter, where he had a live chat with the owner of the same network, the famous american businessman, philanthropist and tycoon elon

musk. the latter held a long conversation about two hours in a frankly complimentary way. he did not spare compliments to the address. mask and ex-president donald trump himself. kamela garis, in her turn, actively enlists the support of american celebrities, in particular film actors, athletes and singers. in addition, in their election campaign, both candidates began to attack each other sharply. thus, the campaign headquarters of the republicans released a negative advertisement. video against the main competitor haris, in it she is accused, in particular, of lefty, intentions prohibit the use of small arms, as well as problems with illegal migration. in turn, kamala garis actively promotes in

the media, as well as at political rallies, the thesis that trump is a criminal, and she, as a former prosecutor of the state of california, ... actively opposes this, and she says: "i know the type of donald very well however, it is obvious that the most interesting thing is that this absentee duel can take place when both candidates agree on a place, as well as the rules for conducting a televised duel, which can take place as early as september, immediately on three central american television channels. ukraine's military successes in the kursk region, unexpected for the whole world, force our allies to adjust their plans to meet the needs of the armed forces of ukraine. already this week, the american pentagon announced

a new package of military aid. equally important was the visit of two american senators from the democratic-republican party. this is a clear signal from the white house administration that there is a clear bipartisan consensus of support in the us congress of ukraine. in addition, should to note that the topic of ukraine remains one of the central ones in the discourse of the american election campaign. both candidates, donald trump and kamala harris , mention the war in ukraine almost every time. in the mentioned interview, which elon musk conducted with donald trump, the ex-president of the usa separately focused on the war in ukraine, blaming it on what is traditional for him. manners in solving it, no, not vladimir putin's, but joe biden's. the latter, according to donald trump

, did everything to force putin to attack ukraine. as trump himself sees this war, he promises to end it literally in one day, forcing zelensky and putin to sit down at the negotiating table. however, even the closest associates of the former us president do not know how this can happen. on august 13, the white house said that iran could carry out a significant series of attacks on israel this week. this was reported by the coordinator of strategic communications of the national security council of the white house, john kirby. he also recalled that previously iran and the lebanese terrorist group hezbollah promised to take revenge on israel for the murder. the political leader of hamas, ismail hannia, and the commander of hezbollah, fuad shukr. the statement

came after media reports that israeli intelligence believes an iranian attack is likely in the coming days. more details about the aggravation of the situation in the middle east, further in our story. iran can attack israel. in the near future, according to updated information from the israeli intelligence community, iran is ready to attack israel for the assassination of a political leader of hamas in tehran and is likely to do so within several days - two sources familiar with the matter told axios. a new intelligence assessment indicates the attack could come before hostage talks and a gaza cease-fire deal scheduled for thursday, potentially jeopardizing the talks ... in what israeli officials say is a now-or-never moment for a potential deal between

israel and hamas. at the same time, the situation is still unstable. last week, israeli intelligence believed that iran had not yet decided on the timing and nature of its response, particularly due to international pressure and internal debates. however, iran's mission to the un said on august 9 that it hoped the response would be timely and conducted in a way that would not jeopardize a potential suspension. israeli defense minister yoav galland told his american colleague lloyd austin on august 11 that iranian military preparations indicate that iran is preparing for a large-scale attack. as a result of the call , the pentagon said that the guest ordered the ballistic missile submarine uss georgia to depart for the middle east and accelerated arrival of the aircraft carrier theodore roosevelt in the region. the biden administration has been gearing up for a week of high -stakes diplomacy to try to prevent an outbreak in the region and secure hostages and a

gas cease-fire agreement. next week's results will show whether the region plunges deeper into crisis and the expansion of perpetual war, or if there is a significant change of course for the first time since october 7, the outcome could shape president biden's legacy. the situation is also tense along the israeli-lebanese border. israel expects an attack from hezbollah as well, which promised to take revenge for... the recent assassination by israel of the top commander fuad shukr. according to the washington post, during the 10 months of cross-border conflict with israel , hezbollah launched so-called saturation attacks. it tested gaps in israel's air defenses and introduced new weapons in response to the assassination of senior commanders inside lebanon. hezbollah has received large shipments of missiles and drones from iran, and now it has also begun to produce its own weapons. in addition, the group has anti-aircraft defenses that most pro. everyone groups the group's arsenal includes guided and

unguided missiles, anti-tank artillery, ballistic and anti-ship missiles, as well as drones loaded with explosives, which allow them to reach far into israeli territory. analysts estimate that hezbollah has between 130,000 and 150,000 rockets, more than four times what its ally hamas was thought to have stockpiled before the gaza war. and the lebanese group says that the team. a force twice the size of the high-end estimates for hamas' military combat forces. most of the arsenal of weapons consists of hezbollah inferior munitions that could threaten... israel's air defense systems if unleashed in large numbers. of even greater concern to israel are the precision munitions the group says it possesses. hezbollah keeps its arsenal a tight secret, leaving weapons experts to guess the full extent of its capabilities. much of what is

publicly known comes from statements by the group and its leader, hassan nasrallah, who says his fighters. used only some of our weapons in escalating attacks on northern israel 8 october this program was conducted for you by me, major of the armed forces of ukraine, taras berezovyts. thank you for being with us, thank you for watching, together to victory and glory to ukraine. ivan golik, 41, comes from truskavets. before the full-scale invasion, the man worked as a construction worker in poland. however, on february 25, 2022

, he returned home despite his wife's persuasion. he immediately went to the military, where he was told to wait for his time, ivan joined the army on january 23. after five months of training and training, he started working in the ranks of military intelligence. the man served in zaporozhye and donetsk region. he was seriously wounded in february of this year, during one of the combat sorties, he came under enemy fire. ivan and his brother decided to wait in the dugout, but near the corner. two 19-year-old border guards who were in the dugout died immediately, three soldiers were wounded, among them ivan and his brother, well, it was lunchtime that they were still standing for them and they died, that our legs were torn from our partners, and they

medicine there already without strength, without... feet and with numerous fragments in his legs, ivan imposed himself turnstiles above the knees. the man remained conscious all the time before the evacuation, which was more than 9 hours. he poured water on his head, killed the water, because he knew that he was conscious of fear in such cases. vmestevak lost consciousness and regained consciousness in the dnipro. he told his wife about the injury on his own, although he said that he had lost his toes. however, in order to save the life of the seriously wounded soldier, whose kidneys had already begun to fail, doctors had to amputate his limbs at the level of the hips. after long treatment in dnipro and kyiv on ivan's rehabilitation and prosthetics were sent to lviv to the anbroken center. the most difficult, the man says, was in the first days after the amputation. yes, there is something more terrible, and i

felt it more strongly already here in lviv in surgery, when... they did not perform the last three operations, and here already such powerful painkillers did not sting, here, here, only then did i feel , what are phantom times. ivan has been working with the physical therapists of the anbroken center for four months, they prepared the defender for prosthetics, and now they are helping again master walking on metal limbs. with ivan, we had essentially no difficulties in our work, that is, he is a patient who... who comes to classes, works out, i know that he will carry out all the instructions on his own, he himself knows that he needs this first of all , i only help, give instructions, instructions and he fulfills. both of ivan's prostheses have electronic knee joints, thanks to which it is possible to reproduce the most natural movements. the cost of such modern technological prostheses is uah 1,200. they were successfully installed

cases. congratulations. you are watching judicial review. i am tatyana shostrova. for four years of work, the higher anti-corruption court has already passed more than 20 verdicts in corruption cases against ukrainian judges. almost all were accusatory. however, there are many loud ones. deal with multimillion-dollar bribes and abuses have not yet been completed, moreover, the servants of themis, who have committed serious crimes and are involved in high-profile cases, have not been dismissed from their positions for years, they continue to receive hundreds of thousands of salaries every month, even in siso, without carrying out judicial proceedings, suspected of corruption ex - the head of the supreme court, vsevolod knyaz, was dismissed by the supreme council of justice the other day for not being the greatest. a multi-million dollar bribe, and for the extremely low price of the apartment he rented in kyiv. why are the biggest corrupt judges so difficult bring to justice, we will tell you

today. and first to the news. the higher anti-corruption court stopped the trial of ilya lonskyi, judge of the primorsky district court of odesa. he was mobilized to the ranks of the armed forces of ukraine. others charge ilya lonsky with an attempt to provide an unlawful benefit. of the same court for passing a positive decision in an administrative case, as well as for possessing part of a bribe by deception. the national anti-corruption bureau of ukraine published an excerpt from the conversation between the participants at the time of the transfer of the illegal benefit. damn i'm somehow so sorry in general, to be honest, all the work, i'm running for someone, i'm sitting damn it. and you don't have anyone, right? yes, i have nothing interesting. the office of judge ilya lonsky was searched, as a result of which the security forces found a bribe. i wonder what? after that, lonsky not only pleaded not guilty, but also appealed to the supreme council of justice. he said that the law enforcement officers put pressure on him and interfere in the activities of the judge.

lontsky was informed of the suspicion of corruption, but now that the judge was mobilized to the zsu, the case is closed. note that this is a very popular scheme among the servants of themis in an effort to avoid responsibility. in fact, he is not the only one, and he is not the first, and maybe not even the last, who makes such a thing, because something like that. because there are other judges who are also suspected of committing other crimes, in particular corruption, and have also mobilized, and in this way they are obviously trying to wash themselves off, hang out somewhere, somewhere, i don’t know, lord, forgive me, take a picture with a machine gun, or in a pixel , and then tell what heroes they are, how they defended ukraine, and therefore they should write off all the crimes they committed before that, this is a very dangerous story, a member of the highest qualification commission of judges in... ukraine volodymyr luhansky turned out to be a fake doctor of philosophy in the field of law. the anti-corruption center sent a request to the ministry of education and science of ukraine regarding whether luhanskyi holds

a doctor of philosophy or candidate of science degree. it turned out that none of them is owned by a high-ranking member of the commission. volodymyr luhansky - former judge, severodonetsky of the city court and a military officer. during his participation in the competition for the position of a member of the central committee of the central committee, we emphasized his alleged dishonesty and wealth of dubious origin. during the interviews with members of the competition commission and vrp, volodymyr luhanskyi stated that he defended his thesis at the international academy of personnel management in 2011. however, at that time this educational institution did not belong to 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, luhanskyi could not explain how he could not remember the name of the specialty for which he wrote a scientific dissertation, in which specialty you defended yourself, the name

of the specialty, clearly, i defended myself, my topic was article 382, ​​this is criminal responsibility for failure to comply with a court decision, i remember, well, i haven't seen my diploma for a long time, i took off the hard copy. 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 the presence of a scientific degree, judges and military personnel receive a supplement to the official salary. however, it is still unknown whether volodymyr luhanskyi received such a supplement when he worked as a judge and served. the supreme council of justice finally dismissed the judge of the makariv district court, oleksiy tandyr, and the judge of the cassation administration. of the supreme court of vsevolod knyaz. employees of themis were fired for committing a significant disciplinary offense. we will remind, oleksiy tandyr killed himself last year in a state of alcoholic intoxication

military national guard employee vadym bondarenko. vsevolod knyaz is suspected of 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 price of the rented apartment. the supreme council of justice decided to dismiss knyazevalod serhiyovych from the position of judge of the cassation administrative court as part of the supreme court on the basis of clause three of part six of article 126 of the constitution of ukraine. instead, the complaint to the vrp was directly related to the bribe and should have ended with the dismissal of knyazun, was never considered, the work on the complaint regarding the bribery of the ex-chairman of the supreme court was distributed to a member of the supreme council of justice, a person involved in our investigations serhiy burlakov, he in turn was in no hurry, the record holder is simply for the first time closing cases, and secondly, by not holding judges accountable, where they need to

be held accountable. according to experts, burlakov is considered a creature of borys gulka, the head of the civil cassation court within the supreme court, one of of the most influential judges and a member of the so-called judicial mafia, which destroyed the judicial system of ukraine all these years. since serhiy burlakov himself currently holds an influential position in the supreme administrative court, he has all the leverage to manipulate the consideration of judges' complaints. therefore, in order to dismiss knyazev from his position, while not investigating the facts of global corruption, the supreme court initiated. a completely different, much smaller and actually artificial matter. in december 2023, the pechersk district court of kyiv received materials from nazk about the arrest prince to administrative responsibility for renting an apartment with an area of ​​133 square kilometers at a price lower than the minimum market value, namely for 100 hryvnias per month. you really can't find such prices even on the outskirts of the capital, not that in the very heart of kyiv, in the government quarter, where

knyazum lived since 2 years, while the ex-head of the supreme court and his landlord were not close relatives, so accepting a gift in the form of such the princes did not have the right to a significant discount on housing. from the resolution of the pechersk district court of kyiv. princes during discussion of the rental price of housing and approval of a rent offer in the amount of 1.00 hryvnias, despite a private property interest, was obliged to immediately take such measures, refuse the offer, attract witnesses, if it is... head of specially authorized entities in the field of anti -corruption. instead, knyazum accepted an offer to rent housing for 100 hryvnias per month and systematically used the gift he received. thus, during the years of lease of the princes saved almost uah 1 million. 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 transferred to the supreme council of justice, and instead of strengthening the corrupt history of the prince with a bribe, the vrp actually undertook to consider only the misdemeanor of renting an apartment. council member serhiy burlakov dragged out the consideration of the bribery complaint in the supreme court so much that knyazum was eventually released only on the grounds of low rent. the circular guarantee has already, excuse me, had enough, it has been going on for years, decades, and... citizens are suffering, ukraine is suffering. the supreme council of justice never managed to establish justice. at the same time , the case about the 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 have been involved, is losing relevance. we know that at least 13 judges were there in the collegium in the case where the prince accepted a bribe. and with great probability, there are many facts in that matter.

that this bribe could be given not only to knyazevo, but also to some other judges from the grand chamber, that is, a key conclusion, the highest judicial instance, the supreme court in our country, urgently needs to be cleaned. following the decision of the vrp, the owner of the princes promised to appeal his dismissal in court, and it will only be about the circumstances of the housing lease. meanwhile, the story of the largest bribery in the judicial system, thanks to such members of the vrp as serhii burlakov, was lost. any chance of being considered by the high council of justice. for today i have that's all, it was the court control and i am tetyana shustrova. if you know the facts of corruption in the judicial system, or you want to tell about a dishonest judge, write to me on facebook or to the e-mail address you see on your screens. let's meet.
