western press already. writes about the pressure on journalists, yuri nikolov and the team of denys bigusat's next? corruption in the ministry of defense. scandals and arrests continue. who profits from the war during zelenskyi's presidency? we work live on the tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms. please, in the course of our program, we are conducting a survey, and we are asking you to answer the question, whether the russian rebellion threatens the putin regime. uh , the events that are happening now in wuxi, is it threatened or not, and is sprawl of this rebellion may in some way prevent the putin regime from doing what it is doing. if you think that the russian rebellion is a threat to putin's regime, you can call 08021381, no, 0821382, all calls to these numbers are free, vote at the end of the... program we will sum up this vote, today we have as and every friday, the journalism club, i want to introduce our guests, these are the best journalists of ukraine, olga len, the author and host of the chronicles of information war program. hello, olga. good evening

, i don't understand at all what bigus has to do with it, my god, i have... there was also an officeeople were engaged, apparently, not only in sniffing, something, but in much worse, but i did not bear any responsibility, it is absolutely normal, we, we are not elected by the people, just like journalists, we not occupying any positions, we are free people in a free country, in principle, yes, if this is a crime, please announce a criminal the thing is, if people rest , how they want to rest, let them rest, it 's about... insightful, in general, there's a vile situation there , absolutely everything is clear, you don't even want to burn yourself, a terrible situation, it reminds me of a situation i remember with portnikov once, well old people probably remember this situation like this, but at the moment for me it is a sign that the government is in a huge crisis. simply, simply a huge crisis, and measures to somehow close this crisis in them, on unfortunately, they are the same ones that were 10, 15 and 20 years ago, so the problem is not in trust, of course, that everyone, known t

, let's hear that bigus said.here on december 20 , a strange character comes to the complex, he is first of all very interested in the restaurant, and then we were in the gazebo, and he is not interested in the menu, but where the speakers are, where the christmas tree is, things like that, and he also makes a reservation for 26- those, absolutely those we book the same rooms that are on the 20th... at home, and he also books the sauna on the 26th. on december 26 , the institution's administration is observing the strangest corporate office employees just ever. and these guests call themselves office employees. it means that a company of 30 gloomy people is sitting in a restaurant, falling silent every time a waiter enters. well, once again, actually drive three dozen people to establish. cameras in the bedroom, and i have no doubt in the sauna as well. maryna, you are following, following this, these two stories, because i am. i see how active you are commenting on all these stories in your social networks and on

bigus. it doesn't look like a spontaneous act of revenge for some specific material. a systematic, long-term follow-up and persecution to discredit the work, the team, the work she has done for years and years. and i don't know how this story can discredit our content. well, but she is. well, obviously, the logic is quite simple, what to expect from them, look, drug addicts, what they can tell there, the same in principle that was once accused of president zelensky, when he was running for the post of the head of state in the 19th year, he went there , donated blood, proved that he does not use narcotic drugs, but this is the irony of the situation lies in the fact that it is during zelenskyi's presidency that... the story about wiretapping, about video recording with the participation of journalists unfolds, and this also in a certain way characterizes both the government and the state, because it is not only about the government and the attitude of the government or, let's say, people close to the authorities, because journalists, investigators have many people who

here is the second point, regarding, ah, the situation around the bigus corporate body, no one can break the law, here and in this in this case, the assessment of the actual behavior with drugs can be given there by those who have the right to give it, but here is the fact that we do not understand at the moment who authorized the surveillance. according to journalists, is this actually operative activity, and then how did it get into public sources, and therefore, actually we, now i personally also turn to the security service of ukraine in order to find out how and in what directions this action was taken, thank you, these materials were actually received, there is, let's say, such a moment, and... it really turns into a very negative a trend to which the authorities must react, it will not be possible to remain silent here , because the fact that it appears on anonymous channels, which are often mentioned, again with arguments, without arguments, we will not actually talk about it here, the authorities do not denies, but in connection with certain information campaigns, that is why a

this was announced by the project manager, denis bigus. and some people's deputies, journalists and public figures activists condemned the surveillance of the bigusinfo project team. the reason for such statements was the streaming of hidden camera recordings of a new year's corporate party in a country complex. in this video, part of the team, namely the operator and social media worker of the project, as bigus says, seems to be at the beginning. later they probably use narcotic substances. the video was published by two little-known sites ord and narodna pravda. the video also appeared on the youtube channel of the same name. the video also included fragments of recordings of telephone conversations, on which the possibility of purchasing drugs is discussed. yes. hello, dibasic. listen, have you already left? well, he left, yes. ah, damn, i didn't have time, oh well. so what? but i think i wanted to ask you, if you have some, to have someone take it for me. because... it should be noted that only the public use of narcotic substances is

as well, because bigus himself admitted that he is now figuring out what happened there with the rest of his employees and... apparently, the use of narcotics? well, let's start with an assessment, if the policy of the mayor of kyiv, in fact, well, without receiving information. from law enforcement agencies, it is still better not to start political criticism, especially at a time when it is clear that we will have a very scrupulous attitude towards freedom of speech from both society and our international community, we have facts, let's say, which demonstrate negative trends, so we are completely right about what the reporters of bezkordons showed in the 22nd year relative to the 21st year. that ukraine has made some progress, but i have great skepticism that in 2023 we will be able to show this positive trend, because in fact, we remember the 22nd year, many people gave us, let's say, tentatively good grades, considering how we faced the full-scale aggression of a much stronger opponent. now regarding what my committee is actually doing, we turned to law enforcement agencies from t

eavesdropping, there, trying to throw some stories into the media space so that everyone there discusses bigus, knocking on the door of yuri nikolov, who conducted a large investigation into the ministry of defense and found out that they bought eggs for uah 17 a piece, that is. .. what do they want from journalism? well, listen here a lot of things have already been said, and in this broadcast, many others have already been caught by the society in general on this topic, of course , it is not shameful and criminal to listen, but it has always been, and we also understand that, unfortunately, such a story has always happened and happens, and accordingly, the services should work to prevent it, and not, on the contrary, tolerate such actions, here absolutely. society with investigative journalists in the fact that these are unacceptable steps, and here is the fact that this idea from ah they are all drug addicts, so you should not listen to them, it did not take off in society, and on the contrary, it now hits the authorities with a ricochet and puts them in the position of justifying and provi

published on the internet, in which the operators of his project use prohibited items. substances, bigus told that according to members editors followed for about a year, and fragments of intercepted conversations were edited from several episodes between which months had passed, leading to the installation of cameras in girls' rooms, to frank interference in private life, because once again, no matter how i feel about what i saw, no matter how twisted i am i wasn't, no matter how much i freaked out about all this, it's... a deeply private life, and in which the participants, let's be honest, only harm themselves, they don't pose a social threat, so to speak. it is not known on what grounds the monitoring of the media took place, today at lunchtime in the sbu reported that the department is investigating the circumstances of illegal wiretapping and video recording of journalists. here it makes sense to recall what exactly the editorial staff of bigusinfo talked about during the last months. well, for example, about the fact that solar stations under the russian... occupation, which are c

powerful structures, disperse, in particular stories about the same yuri nikolov, i now think that bigus will be big enough now. attack, because vigou himself admitted that he is now looking into what happened there with the vacation of his employees and the alleged use of narcotics? well, let's start with an assessment, if the policy of the mayor of kyiv, in fact, well , without receiving information from law enforcement agencies, it is still better not to start political criticism, especially at a time when in... it is clear that we will have a very meticulous attitude to freedom of speech from the side as well as society, as well as our international community itself, we have facts, let's say, that demonstrate negative trends, yes, vadym is quite right that reporters without borders in the 22nd year compared to the 21st year showed that ukraine made some progress , but i have great skepticism that in the 23rd year we will be able to show this positive trend. because we actually remember the 22nd year, many people gave us, let's say, tentatively good marks, considering how we resisted

speaks very badly about our country, in fact, in fact, because of course, any of these things with bigus and nikol, it should be a matter of journalistic investigation, precisely because of the inadmissibility of such measures against journalists in general, in principle, i am not talking about the moral side , everything else, we 've seen it all, well, this, this, this, this is such a normal thing. for our country, i am not even surprised, the mechanisms that have been used for ten years are being used purely hibiscus absolutely mechanisms, we remember the publications about journalists, oppositionists in russia, when he went to a prostitute there, and in your video immediately something else appears there, well, drugs are not the worst moral point of view for our society, here everything is at once, everything is so clear here that i don't even want to... are the russians interested in this, well of course they are interested, interested in any internal conflict in the country, moreover, they are interested in the ukrainians seeing that all those who speak the truth in ukraine, yes are

gennady, well, accordingly , bigus gate, more precisely, i don't know whose gate it really is, becausecandal is not connected with bigus and his team, but with those persons who committed illegal acts. not listening, video recording and then yes they themselves leaked the whole matter to the internet, they have already initiated several criminal cases, but now i am quoting the head of the national police, ivan vehivskyi. one proceeding with the security services, the second proceeding, not even one, but four representatives from bigus turned to us, we registered four proceedings under article 182 violation of privacy, they were filed on the weekend of friday-saturday, a number of investigative actions are planned, but the key story, so to speak, is to find, establish and prosecute those persons who have committed illegal relevant actions. business in therefore, here it is interesting who did it after all, if it was done by bodies in accordance with our legal order, such opportunities are available, at least in the same police, in nabu, in the security services, in the sbi, well, in alm

allow themselves such antics, because here... what stands out for me is this provocation against me, bigusrainian truth, which is also circulating in telegram channels, that is, it was rather aimed at discrediting us, well, on the destruction of our reputation, look, bigosy drug addicts, evading the ukrainian truth, in general, there is some hartsovshchit sitting there, who buys expensive handbags there, that is, it is all something so bad, wrong, and fortunately, ukrainian society reacted that's right, because he perfectly understands the work we do, and that, relatively speaking, if someone over there grabbed some jamb at a corporate party from operators, well, it does not affect the journalistic work of bigus, the fact that i am now in the rear, and not in front line, er, it also gives me the opportunity to work, well, to do what i do and what everyone sees, and the fact that in the ukrainian truth someone... has enough salary to buy some women's handbag, well, that's normal, well, what's the matter here, you can be a tatar, but you can't be a journalist, well, that's why all this, how

let's listen to what denys bigus said.does not look like a spontaneous act of revenge for some specific material. this is systematic, long-term monitoring and persecution, to discredit the team's work, the work it has been doing throughout. years, years, and i don't know how this story can discredit our content, well, but it is, well, obviously the logic is quite simple, what to expect from them, look, drug addicts, what they can tell there, the same exactly, in principle, what was once accused of president zelensky, when he ran for the post of head of state in the 19th year, he went there, gave blood, proved that he... does not use narcotics, but the irony of the situation is in the fact that it is during zelenskyi's presidency that the story about wiretapping unfolds. about video shooting with the participation of journalists, and this also in a certain way characterizes both the government and the state, because it is not only about the government and the attitude of the government or, let's say, people close to authori

, and all these moments, of course, they don't just pass like that, because what nikolov does, what bigusoes, you can ask them many questions, ask many questions, but they do much more than anyone does for a huge number of our poor elite, you can't find another word, also hrinkevich, so some... happens in our country, during the war, of course, this is a great crime against those, first of all, who are fighting at the front, well, against everyone the whole society. colleagues, let's take a short break, we'll be back on the air in a minute. do ordinary things become unreal? heavy bags, not for my patient. back, for back pain, try dolgit cream. long-acting cream relieves pain, reduces swelling and improves joint mobility. with doolgit cream, whatever you want, i'll pick it up. dollheit is the only yellow cream for joint and back pain. for muscle spasms dolgit antispasmody dolgit antispasmodic tablets for muscle and calf relaxation kratal contains natural components that carefully care for your heart. kratal improves blood supply and the functional state of the myocardium, normalizes heart

the head of the project, denys bigus, recorded a video address to the audience, where he assured thatcooperates with bigusinfo will pass drug tests. bigus clarified that the employees shown in this video are operators and that they are all fired at this time. anastasia usenko, a journalist, joins our broadcast of the bigusinfo project. anastasia, good evening. good evening, you know, when we called you, we wanted to discuss with you your own investigation into the reports for the president's office, and then the whole story with the use of narcotic substances appeared. your investigation related to the office of the president and the cabinet of ministers, after it, on the second day, this video was leaked to the network, where your employees allegedly use narcotic substances, are you connected? are these two things mutually exclusive or not? and look, what we understand now, what our team understands, that the wiretapping of individual members of our team took place over several months, at least, er, that is, there were probably other, other investigations, other reasons for those who

respond adequately to challenges, all the more simply because now what happened to me there with the bigushe administration, this is just such a public trigger, there were many cases, well, in the 23rd year, that i know of, which simply did not become public, because they tried to keep some activists or media people silent from escalation, so that they... simply did not end up actually landing in ovdiivka for recycling, then there were such cases, it’s just that some of the fashionistas know about them internally, and when it's just pressure there was such a thing, well, as they say , the blinders went down and everyone started talking, but in this case, can we at least expect that this blow with a rake, which was stepped on by banks on the street? will be at least the last from the point of view of failed communication, is it really this one, they are uneducable, a romance, they are uneducable, well, but this already has a security, financial dimension, maybe there is an instinct for self-preservation, that they, what they are capable of, like to hide even tighter, like that i'm at home,

services have been in hiding for several months, most likely, they installed tracking devices to monitor bigus who work there for specially settled hotels in advance, then they were during this revelry in the hotel, then after the revelry to collect their equipment, it cost, for example, nixon the presidency, the fact that they were not following journalists, there would they would have destroyed the whole party then, for sure, and the fact that they were watching their opponents during the elections, here are investigative journalists who expose corruption and... turned out to be healthy men, young, conscripted, turns out to be watching girls who are engaged in journalistic investigations, installing cameras in their bedrooms. well, if we talk about the dnipro, then this situation, i believe, should be on a more national discussion and level, so i can't talk about the dnipro or the region here locally. in my opinion, this situation is not normal, it is nonsense in general, but, well, unfortunately, unfortunately, this is what is happening with us now, but it would really be better to deal wit

and the bigus-info team, and the journalists themselves already have their own special operation, let'sey are conducted to investigate who was following them, in what way, well, but this is not even about that. not about these details, here we are actually talking about the fact that even in the western press financial time writes about the persecution of journalists in ukraine, and that we do not look at all different from russia, that media workers are persecuted in russia, that in ukraine they are persecuting media people, it actually creates a very bad image for our country, because , well, because we are not russia, and because we have certain unpleasant situations, nevertheless, we still consider ourselves a democratic state. do you think that such cases of surveillance of journalists can also have a significant negative impact on support for ukraine, and how can we justify ourselves to the world now, how can we rehabilitate ourselves, how can we prove the opposite? everything that is being done, here i say once again, it contradicts what is declared, and this is the most importan

. to discredit those people who are engaged in journalistic investigations, it is the team of denys bigusho works in our money, people who write about corruption in the ministry of defense, people who say that public finances are spent on some kind of monitoring are stupid, and i'm sorry, i can't put it another way, of dubious quality, let's say, monitoring, and millions go there. of money suddenly become the object of close attention of unknown people. the sbu says that we will find everyone, the police say that we will find everyone. well, in this situation, the most important thing is that both the sbu and the police do not act on themselves, because when it comes to surveillance, we are talking about eavesdropping, about systematic journalists. the answers to these questions should be quite strict and timely. and such that it would not be proper for others to observe or spy on journalists, how do you think our state looks now in the eyes of our western partners, taking into account the facts of pressure on journalists, it looks bad, because it is one of the foundations of our oppositi

to scare your relatives, your mother and you there, this is one case, the second case is the team of bigusmonitored there for a year and monitored. recorded that, who says where, where they are, 30 people who go into some country houses, set up video cameras, that is, some such maneuvers that it's just... they don't get on their heads and it's absolutely impossible to understand it, although you can obviously understand why it happens, the only thing that's not clear is what they all hope for, but you follow them, that is, it's basically such a young team in terms of age , age-old, where, where they have this is what the yanukovychs had, the yanukovychs were a gang that came and simply squeezed out companies there. sat on streams, they didn't even hide it, and what you told about the campaign, their next step was when they offered 50 + one share to pick up, then they said that if you don't want it, we'll come tomorrow, we'll take everything, but it will cost 10 times cheaper there than it could have been before, and during yanukovych's time, by the way, i didn't receive such threats , well

two levels of stock exchange business, and they took these courses, i now work as a teacher at the bigu, that is, i want to work as a doctor, i applied for citizenship of the republic of belarus, because it’s been a long time since i was legally married to my wife, i’ve already applied and i’m very glad that literally a month ago the president signed a decree, i was given citizenship of the republic of belarus, so now in my plans, i want to do an internship like belarus, and after that i i’ll start working as a doctor, that is, i want to work as a doctor and as a teacher, i want to work temporarily. ready to be captured. watch the program cities of belarus on the belarus 24 tv channel. they are dedicated to their work. special children need us ours task. show one day from your life: is it better to put marmalade or fruit? well, of course, it’s better to have fruit; it’s enough to develop an approximate menu according to established standards twice a year, taking into account seasonality. the teacher-defectologist sits with the child at the mirror and shows the child articulation gymnast

the sbu seized discs with recordings of cameras in the complex, where the bigus-info team secretly filmed. about this was reported by investigative journalists from the scene . this was preceded by the opening of criminal proceedings on the fact of illegal wiretapping of project journalists. your likes and comments are important to us, so share your impressions of what you've seen. positional battles continue near bakhmut, but changes in the front line have been confirmed. no, this is reported by analysts of the american institute for the study of war. in the general staff of ukraine, they say that during the day they repelled seven attacks by russian forces in the direction of bakhmut, in the russian the ministry of defense in turn is informed about six repulsed attacks by the armed forces of ukraine. the reuters agency showed footage of the work of the ukrainian military at positions near bakhmut the day before. in a comment to journalists, ukrainian soldiers told about attempts to break through russian forces, in particular at times, about the influence of the weather. on military oper

, well, three simple things, i fully support, now, now i explain on my fingers, so let's start with bigus i, i am not a fan of journalists smoking or not smoking, that is a separate article. 30 law enforcement officers, spent a week of time and budget money of you and me, taxes of these very businessmen to organize this trap there, well, this filming is illegal, by the way, i’m saying, friends, but here is a ready unit, yes, a ready platoon there already on front. of all the law enforcement officers that exist today, i am convinced that two or three brigades can be staffed very quickly, the guys are military, healthy, familiar with weapons, wear epaulettes, this is who should be the first in this process, there are a lot of them, i already no, i don't know who is responsible for what, who is arresting whom, who arranges the mask show, the incas have two or three organizations per businessman, now mazefa, he is not a yangal. but look, he works for a legal, very powerful structure, concord capital, it's an investment fund, yes, he's being arrested, they are detained for some alleged crime,

their mail, to monitor them. and actually this week with all the stories with yuri nikolov, with the biguseeling such a view, and it is obvious that for our western partners, this was also such a very alarming call, because we understand that it is precisely the situation with freedom of speech that they react very much to, and this is a very sensitive topic, and of course, that it is such it's not exactly that the bell, the alarm signal, but that something bad is happening here. and therefore, of course, even if the authorities succeed, they will have to come out on their own, as in the story with zakharchenko and the dispersal of students near the famous christmas tree, then i would probably advise zelenskyi's team to come out on their own team and do something with it, so that later it does not have the same consequences as yanukovych once had, and because, well, such wars with journalists, in fact, they do not lead to anything good, neither the government nor the state. is it possible to twist this whole story somehow now so that it is beneficial, i am talking about the fact that, actu

nikalov and the team of denys bigus yesterday , president zelenskyi spoke about the inadmissibility ofe on journalists. let's listen to what zelensky said. separately, regarding the situation with our journalists, in particular the fact of monitoring journalists. the security service of ukraine has started an investigation and will find out all the circumstances. any pressure on journalists is unacceptable. tatiana you conducted investigations and also wrote a lot about the abuse of power and the previous and current powers, who and why do you think they are putting pressure on journalists now? unfortunately, journalists are really investigative, they are now creating great inconvenience for many officials who are engaged in and have been engaged in corruption for many years, and it is possible. if earlier such scandals had less resonance, then even in the case of grynkevichev, we can see how irritated society is now reacting to such stories, and accordingly, these people are very reluctant to leave their powerful cabinets, they then have no choice but to discredit journalists, they sa

i.e. not direct investigators, and i understand that there would be someone... there would listen to bigus certain resources are spent, if these resources are in an unlimited number to write operators, then process this information, this is really an extremely alarming signal, but perhaps, ms. aliso, there were some additional unpleasant signals during your investigative activities, that is, there are cases that one part of our society likes, there are cases , which the second part likes, here... well, that's not what we're talking about, but if you listened for a longer time, maybe there were some other strange, strange signals. editorial staff of investigative journalists is definitely used to suspicious observation of his activities, professional activities, and not in his free time, constantly because of different presidents, it happened under the previous president, and it also happened under volodymyr zelenskyi. if we talk about something very relevant, then we began to notice another wave of observations after returning at the end of the 22nd year. to the investigation of anti-corru

order to discredit those people who are engaged in journalistic investigations, it is the team of denys biguskolov, who works with our money, people who write about corruption in ministry of defense, people who they say that state finances are spent on some kind of monitoring. stupid, and i'm sorry, i can't say it in another way, of dubious quality, let's say this, monitoring, and millions of money go there, suddenly become the object of close attention of unknown people, the sbu says that we will find everyone, the police say, we will find everyone , well, in this situation, the most important thing is that both the sbu and the police do not step on themselves, because when it comes to surveillance, we are talking about... eavesdropping, about systematic journalists, answers to these the questions should be quite tough, timely and such that it would not be acceptable for others to observe or spy on journalists, so how do you think our state looks in the eyes of our western partners now, given the facts of pressure on journalists? doesn't look good because one of the foundations of our opposi

apartment or scare your relatives, your mother and you there, this is one case, the second case is the bigusas followed there for a year and tracked, recorded what, who says where, where they are, 30 people who come into the some country houses, set up video cameras, that is, some such maneuvers that just...

other , well, three simple things, i fully support, now i explain on my fingers, so let's start with bigus, right? me, i'm not a fan the fact that journalists are there, whether they smoke something there or not, is a separate article, 30 law enforcement officers, spent a week spending time and budget money, yours and mine, the taxes of these same businessmen to organize this trap there, well, this filming, illegally, to things, i say, friends, but here is a ready unit, yes, a ready platoon, there already to the front, immediately from... all the law enforcement officers that are available today, i am convinced that two or three brigades can be staffed very quickly, military guys , healthy, familiar with weapons, wear epaulettes, that's who should be the first in this process, there have been a lot of them, i don’t know who is responsible for what , who is arresting whom, he arranges a mask show, sometimes two or three organizations for one businessman, now mazepa, he is not a yangal, but... look , he works for a legal, very powerful structure, concord capital, this is an investment fund,

in fact, if it is true, if under the editorship of bigus-info, who made incriminating stories about allitical forces, about all politicians in this country and showed their non-involvement and independence, if they are being watched, i think law enforcement should step in because it's unacceptable, i'm someone who... i was under such surveillance myself at one time when i was an anti-corruption activist and i was followed everywhere like that the so-called journalists, in fact, they were either employees of the sbu or provocateurs paid by them, one of them, for example, there savlad filimonka has now become a drug addict and is robbing stores in sweden, having fled the war, so i can say that such things are unacceptable, i hope so an analysis will be conducted and analyzes will be conducted by law enforcement agencies, who exactly carried out nsrd, who owns these films, and the guilty will be punished, otherwise sooner or later these questions will begin to be asked of us in the international arena. i understand you, thank you. very much, oleksandra ustinova, people's deputy, voice fact

another, here we are the government of national unity, ukrainian journalism is them, yes, apart from bigus-info, as recently as this week, and yuriy nikolov was also threatened and... notes were left on the door, but i am aware of this story, there are several telegram channels that all this is very active, i don't know how to even say, well, well, i was also in this situation, they also came to my house during the maidan of 2013-14, 10 years ago, they tried to break down the door, well no no , it's even worse than the notes to leave, picketed. they were pasting under my house some offensive postcards, i wasn't in kyiv then, but they held such a picket, i remember it very well, because it was also such absolute pressure on me, and it was , of course, terrible, and by the way, you know that interestingly, i also noticed then, for me it was also such an indicator that such an authority, which does this, does not enjoy any trust of the public, because when i asked my colleagues there to come at least... they cleaned all these inscriptions, which we have pasted all the surrounding doors, houses and

seven days how they arranged provocations against our colleagues, yuriy nikalov and the team of denys bigus, yesterday about the inadmissibility of pressure on journalists, president zelenskyi said, let's listen to what zelenskyi said. separately, that... the situation with our journalists, in particular the fact of surveillance of journalists, the security service of ukraine has started an investigation and will find out all the circumstances, any pressure on journalists is unacceptable. tatyana, you conducted an investigation and also wrote a lot about the abuse of power by the previous authorities and the current authorities, who and why do you think they are now pressure on journalists? unfortunately, journalists are really investigators, they are now creating great inconvenience for many officials who are involved and have been engaged in corruption for many years, and it is possible that if earlier such scandals took place with less resonance, then even from the case of grynkevich, we can see how irritated society is now reacting to similar stories, and accordingly these people really

denis bigu. the founder of the investigative journalism project , based on audio recordings from the merged video, concluded that the team had been monitored for months. in the office of the prosecutor general of radio svoboda informed that they will carry out procedural management over this case. yaroslav yurchyshyn, head of the verkhovna rada committee on freedom of speech, also addressed the office of the prosecutor general and the sbu with a parliamentary request regarding illegal surveillance of journalists. mediarruh independent association of journalists and. media in the organization called to protect freedom of speech and stop provocations against journalists. mediarukh reminded that in the last few days there have been attacks on journalists project our money, yuriy nikolova, on biguus-info, and also on media detector, ukrainian pravda, mirror of the week, hb, censor, babel, ligunet and espresso. this is an important topic. in the comments, write what you think about the events that are

the bigusinfo investigation project are probably using narcotic substances, the project manager denys bigusecorded a video address to the audience with an explanation and assured that everyone who cooperates with bugusinfo... will pass tests for drug abuse, but all these events forced the mayor of kyiv, vitaliy klychka, to declare that the leadership of ukraine is destroying democratic principles, including repression of independent media and journalists who do not like the government because they criticize its actions. mr. vadim, the very first question for you, as a representative of the monopoly power, monomajority, is whether you accept such defenses.

resolution of the parliamentary assembly of the council of europe, well , there is the case of the same bigus and it went on and on and on, no, this, this case did not exist and it was not described, perhaps because let's say, international structures, they are quite inert in, well, they react for so long, and there was definitely a reminder that they do not know. murderers, or rather, those who ordered the murder georgy gonga, it was the mentioned pavlo sheremet and the fact that there is no, well, there is no court decision, there are no established culprits in this matter, that is , precisely what concerns the murders of journalists, it always goes, well, on such a separate, you know, separate page, but if we speak about the reaction of the council of europe in general to the situation with maybe, well, not possible, i was actually just saying. for all member countries of the council of europe, where fixed. some violations, yes, regarding journalists, and this case has already been recorded there, and the government is so responsible, well, that's obvious the ministry of culture is respons

we will talk at 21:15. about how and who is monitoring the investigators of denis bigus's company, abouthe story that happened to our colleague yuriy nikolov, when unknown people tried to knock down the door of his apartment in kyiv, these are the people who made sure that the society knew about the corruption in the current government, but now they have come under attack, we will talk about all this in literally 12 minutes, let's start. our big broadcast in verdict , vasyl’s big broadcast of winter continues, vasyl, you have the word, thank you, sergey, so at 20:00 the verdict program, wait, well, you’ve already waited for yevhen postakhov’s review of sports events, let’s watch, let’s watch together, two ukrainian victories on melbourne courts, marto kostyuk and lesya tsurenko reached... the third round of the australian open championship. in a dramatic and spectacular confrontation, kostyuk defeated 25-year-old eliza mertens of belgium. in the first game, marta conceded 5:7. kostyuk won the second set with a crushing score of 6:1, in a little more than half an hour. in the final game,

on the one hand, on the other hand, monitoring over a long period of time those who works for denys bigus the team of journalists, investigators, well, we see how in principle all this is happening, how it is... it seems, how everything is developing, we see a not very quick reaction of the authorities, because for several days they thought, something is wrong with this to do, after all, zelenskyi said that it is necessary to protect journalists, and the security service of ukraine announced that they will now investigate who these scoundrels are who put pressure on journalists, but here are the bells, they say that obviously, obviously, in... the president's office, which invites executives to its meetings or journalists of anonymous telegram channels see democracy and freedom of speech in ukraine in a completely different way. i am not talking about the three channels that were also sanctioned, it is not clear at all when they were thrown out of t2, espresso, the fifth channel and direct. what do you think zelenskyi's team is trying to achieve, that is , they want to curtail freedom of

think about it i think, and i would probably like to hear some personnel decisions, not only in the bigus matter, it seems to me... the president, he stated that it is unacceptable to put pressure on journalists, but who did it, there is no answer yet. well, i 've been waiting for almost two years for the results of the investigation on the former maid, who i found in my own apartment, completely by accident. and by the way, i keep thinking what would have happened if i hadn't found it, that is, the same equipment in this hotel where the bugose party was, it was taken away, and mine... this the so-called wiretapping, not so-called, it was a listening device, i removed it myself, and it is also a question for me, to what extent it is possible to forget about such episodes to our authorities and the relevant competent authorities, and not give an answer, but what was it after all, so your wiretapping remained a memory for you, i understand correctly, no, certainly not a memory, i handed her over to the security service of ukraine, wrote a corresponding statement, and they took her away. exp

or scare you there. of your relatives, your mother and you, this is one case, the second case is the bigus which was followed there for a year and tracked, recorded what, who says, where, where are they, 30 people who go into some country houses , set up video cameras, that is, some such maneuvers that simply do not fit into the head and it is absolutely impossible to understand this, although obviously you can understand why this is happening, the only thing is no.. . what they all hope for, you are watching them, that is , it is basically such a young team in terms of age , age, where, where they have this is what the yanukovych had, yanukovych, it was a gang that came and just i printed out companies there, got on streams, they didn't even do that hid, and what you told about the campaign, their next step was when they offered 50 +1 share to pick up, then. they said that if you don't want it, we'll come tomorrow, we'll take everything, but it will cost 10 times cheaper there than it could have been before, and during yanukovych's time, by the way, i didn't receive such threats , well ,

we have witnessed how staged provocations against our colleagues yuriy nikolov and the team of denys bigus, yesterday president zelenskyi spoke about the inadmissibility of pressure on journalists: let's listen to what zelenskyi said, separately, regarding the situation with our journalists, in particular the fact of surveillance of journalists, the security service of ukraine started an investigation and explains all the circumstances. any pressure on journalists is unacceptable. tatyana, you conducted investigations and wrote a lot about the abuse of power by both previous and current authorities. who and why do you care now? pressure on journalists? ah, unfortunately , investigative journalists are really investigative journalists, they are now creating great inconvenience for many officials who... are engaged in and have been engaged in corruption for many years, and - perhaps, if earlier such scandals took place with less resonance, then even in the case of grynkevichev , we see how irritated society is now reacting to such stories, ah, accordingly, these people really do not want to

on the one hand, on the other hand, monitoring over a long period of time those who work for denys bigus the team of journalists, investigators, well, we see how in in principle , all this happens, how it all is presented, how everything is developing, we see a not very quick action by the authorities, because for several days they thought about doing something about it, then, after all, zelenskyi said that journalists should be protected, and the sbu announced that they will now investigate who well, these scoundrels who put pressure on journalists, but here are the bells, they say that obviously, obviously, the president's office, which invites to its... meetings uh, managers or journalists of anonymous telegram channels, sees it in a completely different way democracy and freedom of speech in ukraine, i already not to mention, i'm not talking about the three channels that were also sanctioned, completely incomprehensible when they were kicked out of that 2 espresso, the fifth channel and direct, what do you think zelensky's team is trying to do, that is... they want to curtail freedom

another, here we are the government of national unity, ukrainian journalism is them, yes, except for bigus-infoeek, and yuriy nikolova too, there were threats to him, and they went to the door notes, however, i have followed this story, there are several telegram channels. who are very active in all this, i don't know how to even say, well, well, i was also in this situation, they also came to my house during the maidan of 2013-14, 10 years ago, they tried to break down the door, well no no it's not even worse than notes to leave, they held a picket at my house, pasted some offensive leaflets, i wasn't in kyiv at the time, but they held such a picket. i remember it very well, because it was also such an absolute pressure on me, and it was certainly terrible, and by the way, you know what's interesting, i also noticed at the time, for me too, it was such an indicator that such a government that does this, it does not enjoy any public trust, because when i asked there my colleagues to come and at least remove all these inscriptions that were pasted on all the surrounding doors of the house. and e

sufficient detail about the situation surrounding our colleagues yuriy nikolov and the team of denys bigus. you know, friends, that there's been a lot thrown around in the media this week about the story with the investigative material regarding inappropriate use of budget funds or regarding. abuses of budget funds, today denys biguk said that their team was watched by more than 30 people who organized all these favors, filmed them with hidden cameras in the house where they rested on the eve of the new year, in a word , the authorities and journalists are such a big topic, and i hope that my colleagues will analyze the current stories in sufficient detail and how they are similar, for example, to the stories that were under president yanukovych, literally in 12 minutes we will be in on the air, don't switch, stay with us , the big evening with yuri fizar continues, yura, you have my word, it's not even 12, but 11 minutes, and serhiy rudenko will be on the air again with his verdict program, just before the announcement. . the next thing we will have on the next broadcast, i want the lates

the fact that 30 employees of the special services did everything so that it was possible to monitor bigus-infournalists, journalists, investigators, then i do not know for sure, for sure it will be a state secret if there is such a number, but i know for sure that some managers of naftogaz have six bodyguards, i would like to see these guards with me, there is no threat to... the manager of naftogaz or other officials in the city of kyiv, so please remove them armor, remove armor from fst dynamo, i don’t understand which one, how this enterprise, a sports association, one of thousands got to those enterprises that is subject to it, it has some strategic importance, there is a whole series, you need to sit down and deal with this armor once for all, preferably transfer some things to the body of the law and let it not be discussed 10 times, namely the process of booking people from mobilization, well, for sure dynamo does not need any armor and it does not have any strategic importance, but the general message, the authorities should come out and say: we are starting from myself look, here we a

order to discredit those people who are engaged in journalism investigations, this is the team of denys bigusith our money, people who write about corruption in the ministry of defense. people who say that public finances are spent on some kind of monitoring are stupid, and, i'm sorry, i can't say it any other way, monitoring is of dubious quality, let's say this, and millions of money go there, suddenly they become the object of close attention of unknown people, the sbu says that we will find everyone, the police say that we will find everyone, well here in this situation, the most important thing is that... the sbu and the police do not step on themselves, because when it comes to surveillance, we are talking about eavesdropping, about systematic journalists, the answers to these questions should be quite strict, timely and such that others do not it was usual observe or spy on journalists, how do you think our state looks in the eyes of our western partners now, given the facts of pressure on journalists? doesn't look good because one of the foundations of our opposition to russia is the

in fact, because for the second day in a row , the wiretapping of journalists and employees of the bigus-info has been discussed in the information space, and now there is already the first official statement from law enforcement agencies. the security service of ukraine has already commented, i quote. the security service of ukraine is investigating the circumstances of illegal wiretapping and video recording of representatives of the biguz-info project. according to the data as a matter of fact, open criminal proceedings , according to article 359 of the criminal code of ukraine, are the illegal acquisition, construction or use of special technical means, obtaining information on the conviction of the sbu, transparent and unimpeded work of independent and professional intelligence agencies is an important condition for the development of ukraine as a democratic state, and similar facts surveillance should be given... a legal assessment, regardless of whether or not the facts of a possible violation of the law related to drug trafficking were made public in the materials of the covert filmin

on the one hand, on the other hand, monitoring over a long period of time those who work for denys bigus the team of journalists, investigators, well, we we see how in principle all this is happening, how it is all presented, how everything is developing, we see a not very quick reaction of the authorities, because for several days they thought about doing something about it, then after all... zelenskyi said that it is necessary to protect journalists and the security service of ukraine announced that they will now investigate who these scoundrels are who put pressure on journalists, but here are the bells, they are talking about what is obviously, obviously, the office of the president, who invites to his meetings executives, or journalists, anonymous... completely in others see democracy and freedom of speech in ukraine, i'm not talking about, i'm not talking about the three channels that were also sanctioned, it's not at all clear when they were thrown out of t2 espresso, the fifth channel and direct, what do you think it is trying to achieve zelenskyi's team, that is, they they want

order to discredit those people who are engaged in journalistic investigations, it is the team of denis bigush our money, people who write about corruption in the ministry of defense, people who say that public finances are spent on some stupid monitoring, and i'm sorry, i can't say it in another way, of dubious quality, let's say, monitoring, and millions of money go there, suddenly become the subject of her meticulous attention of unknown people, the sbu says that we will find everyone, the police say that we will all... find them, well, in this situation, the most important thing is that both the sbu and the police do not expose themselves, because when it comes to surveillance, we are talking about eavesdropping , about the systematic harassment of journalists, the answers to these questions should be quite strict, timely and such that it would not be convenient for others to observe or spy on journalists, so how do you think it looks now? our state in the eyes of our western partners, given the facts of pressure on journalists? looks bad, that's why that one of the foundations of our opp
