watch this week in the judicial control program with tatyana shustrova. qualification assessment of acting judges. who failed the interview with vkks? a criminal case was opened proceedings against me. but do all judges underestimate the value of their property? this apartment is located in a rather old housing stock. congratulations. you are watching court control and i by tetyana shustrova. despite the full-scale war, ukraine continues its path to the european union and does not stop in implementing reforms. in particular, judicial.

reform in ukraine, the qualification assessment of judges continues, almost 2,000 representatives of local and appellate courts have to pass it, and during the first year of work, the supreme court of appeals managed to conduct only about 130 interviews, so now he is actively trying to catch up and announce verdicts, in particular, regarding those servants of themis who want to keep their positions. we will introduce you to the brightest candidates, but first to the news. the supreme council of the judiciary dismissed nataliya sharko, judge of the heniche district court of the kherson region, who sided with the occupiers and makes illegal decisions against citizens of ukraine. in particular, she arrested the ukrainian lenur khalilov, whom the russians accuse of participating in an illegal armed formation. in 2021, judge sharko sued the state judicial administration for the payment of a judge's fee. from this lawsuit it became known that sharko has access to the state. secrets, but for more than two years

the judge, despite cooperation with the russian occupiers, remained a judge in ukraine and received a salary with all allowances. a video from the wedding of marina barsuk, a judge of the northern commercial court of appeal, appeared online. the recording was made in 2021, however, it is interesting not for the festivities, but for those who came to the pompous party. the wedding is organized with great care grandeur, the atmosphere of a real palace, the precious design of the stage, which... was the envy of eurovision stars. by the way, the show ballet, virka serdyuchka, tina karol and others spoke about the stars. ukrainian oligarchs pavlo fuchs and ihor kolomoiskyi were among the guests. the last old friend of the family. with this friendship, he easily secures victory in court disputes. judge victor barsuk's husband, according to zmi, works in the oligarch's office. marina barsuk has repeatedly made decisions in court cases regarding kolomoiskyi's business. in particular, in 2022 panel of judges. which barsuk was part of,

left in force the collection of almost uah 2 million from the state budget in favor of ukrnafta. barsuk was also a member of the panel of judges who considered the case of alienation of 40%. shares of the poltava mining and processing plant in the international company ferekpo in favor of the former owners. these are four offshore companies associated with kolomoisky and his russian associates. the current deputy chairman of the russian state duma oleksandr babakov and the president of the central sports club of the russian army yevhen ginerom. the ukrainian state bureau of investigation directly called them the leaders of the luzhniki organized crime group. if the judge is playing a million dollar wedding, that would be it. in any civilized country, the presence of an oligarch, especially the oligarch in whose interests the judge made a decision, especially in the conditions of ukraine, when judges are usually very reasonably suspected, and often this is simply proven by the facts of working for

oligarchs, it would immediately trigger the next same day, this judge would be summoned for a very serious conversation, at least in bodies responsible for the ethics and integrity of judges. representatives the oligarch in the northern court of appeal appealed to all the panels of judges until the case went to barsuk. later, due to media publicity, barsuk recused herself and the case went to her friend, the judge of the northern commercial court of appeal , lyudmila kropyvna, whose panel eventually gave the shares of the company with multibillion-dollar assets to offshore companies connected to kolomoisky and the russians. lyudmila kropyvna, as it turned out, was also there a guest at a wedding. through corrupt judges , oligarchs get access to property, they evade taxes, they get a monopoly on the market, they evade fines for environmental pollution and so on and so

forth, and this makes them oligarchs. the presence of an oligarch at a wedding in court, even more so an oligarch once again, regarding whom the judge made a decision, well, this is absolutely, absolutely unacceptable. the decision to expropriate the poltava gzk was ultimately recognized as illegal and annulled by the grand chamber of the supreme court, and possible corrupt actions of lyudmila kropyvna began to investigate the national anti-corruption bureau, because it was at the time when the judge was resting at the wedding with kolomoiskyi and began the case of transferring the shares of the poltava gzk to the oligarch's companies that she had an elite estate in goats worth 1 million dollars . in ukraine. qualification evaluation of judges continues, an important process for cleaning and reformatting the country's judicial system. the more qualitatively we implement this reform, the more confidently we will continue our path to the european union. unscrupulous judges are very resourceful in their attempts to avoid evaluation. they get seriously ill just

before the interview, come up with other good reasons not to come, go to court, or try to run away from the dismissal into an honorable retirement at the same time. but fortunately for the majority , it... does not succeed, so we continue to introduce you to ukrainian judges who have to confirm their suitability for the position. this is yuliya burzel, a judge of the yagodinsky district court of the kyiv region, and the members of the commission had a lot of questions about her. judge has two privatized plots of land near kyiv and an apartment in the capital since 2020. however, the judge declared its value to be almost twice less than the market value. this apartment is in a rather old housing stock. this house was built in 1938 or 1939, and it was in a rather terrible condition. julia burzel works in yagotyn, which is a hundred kilometers from kyiv. she assures that she covered this distance every day to get to work. it turns out

that the judge spent more than two hours each day on a one-way trip, and a total of four hours a day, that for a trip to... every day i went to yagotyn by car, minibus, electric train, but i could really stay, sometimes, at a certain address in the city of yagotyn. in 2015 and 2016, the judge did not declare the corporate rights of her husband, roman svistovich, in two companies. she says she didn't know anything. he just didn't tell me about it. he explained to me that... truboil company, it was actually founded by him back in 2012, he and i did not even know each other during this period, and he is just one of those reasons that he didn't, it didn't work, he didn't receive any dividends from it, he simply forgot to tell me about it, just

like he did to the staffing agency usp. in general , the members of the family of judge yulia borzel are not the only ones who are known for their kindness. in 2000, the firm, where the judge's husband was a co-owner, appeared in the case of forgery of documents during the alienation of land near kyiv, and yulia burzel's mother, a retired judge , appeared in the investigation in 2018, where it was found that she received gifts worth almost 2 million uah the high qualification commission of judges took a break before announcing the final decision regarding the eligibility of judge yulia burzel. and this is pavlo hutsal, a judge of the lubarsky district court of the zhytomyr region, and he repeatedly underestimated the value of the property in the declarations, or even forgot to declare it. for example, in 2016, he and his wife... took care of a mazda 3 car, he assures that for uah 14,900. instead, this amount is significantly lower than

the market value. presumably, in this way the judge could try to avoid the financial one of monitoring, which set a limit for cash payments up to uah 150,000. if the amount is greater, it was necessary to explain the origin of the funds. in 2021, pavel gutsal's wife bought an audi q5 for over uah 2,000. but the declared money for this would not be you... an advance, but tell me, please, the counterparty under this contract, who was, who was the counterparty, who paid the funds, yes, who paid this advance, the private notary, the private notary with whom we , your wife is in a certain relationship, well, in family relationships, yes, it is also known, that since the beginning of the full-scale invasion , pavlo gutsal made 14 short-term

crossings of the polish border from incomprehensible reasons. and finally, we will introduce you to nataliya semenova, judge of the apostolivsky district court of the dnipropetrovsk region. as for the judge, criminal proceedings were opened for official falsification of documents, it was later closed, however, apparently gaps not only in integrity, but also in knowledge. open. there were criminal proceedings against may, against me, the prosecutor, can the prosecutor open criminal proceedings? investigator, what does an investigator do? i didn't understand the question, sorry. the supreme council of justice held natalia semenova accountable for the fact that she constantly returned to the police protocols on administrative violations on illegal grounds. if you pointed out to the question of the public council of virtue that the prosecutor's protocol was in itself. correct, compiled according to i will remove the legislation, then what grounds were there

to return it, when at the same time your decision is simply not implemented? no. it is also known that nataliya semenova systematically delayed the consideration of cases of reckless driving, which allowed violators to avoid responsibility. in particular, out of the 16 cases closed by her, which were discovered by the public council of integrity, in 13 cases the judge had more than two months to consider the case and in three cases more than a month, during which period the postal correspondence was not sent, that is why the deadlines were missed, well then , that is, the term bringing a person to administrative responsibility, by whom the deadlines were missed, i believe, not by the court, in the end, after investigating all the circumstances, the panel of the higher qualification commission sent judge semenov for dismissal. as of today , i have everything, you watched judicial control, i am

tetyana shostrova. tell us about the facts of corruption in the judicial system that you know. write to the email you see on the screen or to me on facebook. see you in exactly one week. today in the verdict program with serhii rudenko. chinese-brazilian peace plan consultations between the us and china regarding russian aggression in ukraine have reached an impasse. is it in vain that ukraine insists on the participation of russian representatives in the future global peace summit? untie the hands of the armed forces. head of european diplomacy, joseph bore. calls for the lifting of restrictions on the use of western weapons by ukraine. will

yermak's list of russian targets convince the biden administration. we need more patriots. the minister of foreign affairs, dmytro kuleba, reproached the western partners for being slow to deliver air defense systems. what can incline the nato allies to close the sky over the western ones. of ukraine. glory to ukraine. this is the verdict program. my name is serhii rudenko. greetings to all. and i wish everyone good health. for the next two hours, we will talk about ukraine, the world, the war, and our victory. in the first part of our program, we will have a big foreign and domestic political evening with valery chaly, diplomat and politician. in the second part of our program, starting at 21:15, we will have the journalist club of yanina

sokolova and olga musafirova. we will beat up foreign policy and domestic policy. the results of the week, let's talk about zelenskyi's press conference, the one and a half hour he held this week and communication with journalists, how he communicated, what he talked about, about president zelenskyi's team, especially since this week exactly 5 years have passed since the ukrainian parliament started working, who was elected in 2019, in short, there will be many topics for conversation, before starting our big one today. conversation, i suggest watching a video of the consequences of another rocket terrorist attack of the russian federation in kharkiv, unfortunately, at least six people died as a result of an attack on a residential high-rise in kharkiv, among them one child who was on a playground, 47 people were injured, to

hit civilians, the russians used a guided aerial bomb, let's see.

to those who died at the hands of the russian occupiers, and death to the russian occupiers. friends, in addition to the telecast, we also work on our youtube and facebook platforms, for those who are currently watching us live there, please subscribe to our pages, take participation in our survey, today we are asking you about whether you are satisfied with the communication of the president with the society, the president of ukraine, that is, if you watch us on youtube, put yes, no, vote, or leave your comment. under this video, if you watch us on tv, take your smartphone and phone or phone and vote on the numbers 0800 211381, if the communication of the president with you, with society satisfies you, and not 0800 211 382. i want to introduce today our of the first guest, this is valery chaly, diplomat,

politician, ambassador, extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador of ukraine to the united states of america in 2015-19. chairman of the board of the ukrainian crisis media center, mr. valery, thank you for coming to our studio, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, well, first of all, let's talk about the victory plan, because this victory plan is already in the announcement of president zelensky, he said that in september he will be in the united states of america for the un general assembly and will meet with the president of the united states of america joseph biden, and this plan of victory will be presented. also to the two candidates for the post of president, trump and haris, and so far ukrainians know that what the victory plan will be, what it consists of, is also still unclear, but judging by zelensky's rhetoric, it must still be a plan for non-peaceful negotiations with russia federation, the plan to force russia into peace, you

know, we actually. we have a peace formula with which, well, positions that can be agreed upon, and if certain accents are added to it, it can be a plan for victory. in fact, with with such an ambitious statement, announcement, of course, if it is really about a general, obviously general, not about any details, the general approach is political, then first of all it would be necessary to talk about it in ukraine, it would not be superfluous to go to the president, perhaps to the parliament, with a message , by the way, it would be possible to leave, it would be appropriate. people, well, in the parliament , the message of the president is announced, as part of the preparation, there can be a serious discussion on scenarios, and this is the constitutional duty, by the way, of the president, annually, and this position is not

is canceled during war, the fact is that it has been ignored sometimes and not during war, so, let's say, not during a large-scale invasion, but it would be appropriate, and it would be possible to talk about it first, because... in fact, the plan of victory, if we say, yes, then without the people, without the parliament, without a wide circle without the military, what is this plan, it will be strange if we hear it somewhere from washington, that is, it will be very strange, and more will be even worse, here's what is being declared now, how could i tell you, well, if it's true, that they are going to transfer this one there plan separately jose. biden to the current president, kamela harris as the vice-presidential candidate to donald trump, well, that means, you know, not a plan, but just a general

document, some theses, well, like a peace formula, yes 10 positions, well, in principle, in principle, to convey all this , it's called a nonpaper, it's transmitted like your political position, and someone says, but how come, all three will be... something one and the same, but one and the same must be, because they've already started talking, let's different things to convey to them, trump has something for him, camille harris for her, and joseph biden, one more thing. in fact, i think that 's why this story is happening now, we all understand that somewhere we understood, and the mood was such that something will happen in the fall, well, the elections in the united states, november 5, putin is waiting of these elections, which are basically shares. so it is, they made november 5 a sacred date, although it is not, because on the 5th there are elections, and on january 20 only the inauguration, and moreover, you and i talked here that not only the name of the president

is important, but also and the configuration that will be the power in the usa, well, in general, how far they will go don't worry, the election period, well, that's another topic, so i think that this is all a continuation of the same story, this is just a diplomatic story, it's not a story. as if they were at the front, this is not the history of foreign policy and the establishment of peace or victory, this is what diplomacy deals with, in the process of strengthening some positions at negotiations, creating a platform somewhere, but this does not replace any peace summits, does not replace these letters that i will send, does not replace absolutely nothing, but you can at least send dozens of letters, if you have a sure position, that's one story. if not then no, therefore, it can be, and there will be a visit of the president to new york, to the un general assembly, as a rule, it is used for

bilateral meetings, there can be a parallel visit to washington, if all this is prepared, i think that it that's fine, but there's only one reason why you and i didn't discuss it before, yes, well, that everyone was focused on the fall, as some kind of turning point, and we... we see after kursk, and after the russian movements further on in the donetsk region, it's all just being transferred, diplomacy now, i'll tell you honestly, it doesn’t work much, it ’s a weapon that works now, and all this diplomacy is postponed for later, the best diplomat is now the zsu, well , of course, well, you can talk like that, and here i would know, i wouldn’t put these stamps, it’s not in the right plan , which is the best diplomat for. the fact is that diplomacy appears when the weapons are already silent, and why, here it is important, it is important that people understand and do not bet what

he says, what is called the horse behind the front of the cart, behind, behind, yes, what was happening, initially there was a lot of effort in bilateral relations, ukraine and russia, to avoid war, primarily ukraine did it, a compromise. starting with the base on the territory of ukraine of the black sea fleet, although it was difficult to decide immediately, but it was possible in the 10th year to put a stricter rule there, if yanukovych had not been the prime minister, the president already then, it is not a fact that history has not moved forward, because president yushchenko already raised the question of withdrawing the fleet, well, at least to start the process, yes, then volodymyr hryska went to moscow and spoke ukrainian. the conditions are there, which must be removed, that is, we, we have made such compromises already reached such a point where it was not us, again, but russia, in the 14th year after... started

a war against ukraine and then in the 22nd a large-scale war, this is already as a result that all our diplomatic efforts did not lead to solution, people for some reason expect that the war will be stopped by diplomatic efforts, on the contrary, the diplomatic efforts did not end, well, the continuation of the peace and the war started, so this is the logic, i meet a lot of people who do not understand this. they think it's because, well, we have to sit down peacefully, talk, yes, a lot of people, i now i went to sumy oblast closer to the border there, the conversations were almost the same, but after such bombs that you showed kabi, of course people will say, well, it must be stopped, people are dying, it seems that everything is so clear, but the problem is that that russia, she, she didn't listen to us earlier, she will kill until

the moment. capitulation, therefore, in conclusion, i will say, the peace summit, the one that the second, if frankly, could have been successful, well, with the completion of the results, as the summit of the soft surrender of ukraine, well soft, it is meant, here, where all the international partners will sit down, we will pat you on the shoulder, we will still help you, maybe a year there and still give money, but this is your capitulation, this is definitely a peace summit in the way it was being prepared now. and what events are happening at the front, this is the soft surrender summit, now the formula or what is the victory plan, it sounds, you see, a change of position, yes, well, let's see, because we understand what the victory plan is, i say that it is the same deoccupation of territories as the peace formula, the same exchange for all our captives, the responsibility of invaders, occupiers, all the same positions,

plus more... and if victory means no war of attrition, because a war of attrition cannot be victorious if it is waged only on your territory, if it is waged in kharkiv , sums, kyiv, then this is not a victory, if there will be moscow, st. petersburg, moscow, so be it, then there will already be talk of victory, we do, our partners do not consider it that way, by the way, why don't they ask the question now . with our delegation there, you are talking about a war of attrition, sorry, and at the same time you say that it cannot be on the territory of russia, then what are you talking about, this is logic, just logic, what is your definition, well, people, these are ukrainians, understand why on our territory, yes, now we have gone beyond this framework, and again in everyone began to have some kind of chronic twitching there, because escalation, escalation again, well, well, then you don’t say that

this is a war of attrition, so... there can be a plan for victory, only this can be, the entire supply of weapons must be concentrated, now, it should be, everything that is planned, relatively speaking, there for 3-4 years, should be in six months, then this is a victory plan, yes, and it is quite clear that our western partners are now, well , not even acting as a guarantor of ukraine's security, but acting as a guarantor of putin's security, because if they do not allow strikes on the territory of the russian federation. then they, he is in their custody, well, absolutely, it is necessary to tell them about it directly, they are now guaranteeing the security of russia, they are now guaranteeing the security, well, not the security of putin, after all , you cannot say that, because the putin regime, well, they preserve putin's regime in this way, because they do not give ukraine, well, they do not give the opportunity or sufficient support, they give support, we must thank them so that it is clear that ukraine exists. in their

understanding, ukraine exists, in what borders, with what internal mood, they don't care, ukraine exists, and this is in fact, but they say that they should thank and bow, sorry, this is their national interest, when they have a bar' er between nato, the eu and russia, that is , the barrier that we act as, we guarantee, ukraine now guarantees the security of poland, slovakia, and the baltic countries. hungary, romania, at least, i am not talking about germany, france, for obvious reasons, yes, they have additional levers, and ukraine now guarantees the security of these countries that are on the border, by the way, they honestly, especially in the baltic countries, say this and thank you , because it is clear that ukraine is bigger, the territory is bigger, they could just walk through them like georgia, as the tanks entered tbilisi and nobody in the world knew what to do with it.
