two satellites at once to viewers who watch our channel on the astra satellite, the tuner should be reconfigured to the new parameters, because the old parameters will soon stop broadcasting espresso ukrainian view thank you for watching dratiuk deputy chairman of the verkhovna rada of ukraine on radio svoboda my greetings to you i congratulate you let's start with the work of the parliament during the war actually because online meetings are not broadcast and we will find out everything after the fact. tell us how this is working for you now during the war, everyone is one faction, everyone is one party, you know how the president asked the deputies, well look, we are all going through difficult times right now. and the most important thing was for the parliament of ukraine to remain a legal institution, not only to show its enthusiasm - institutionality, as we say , on the first day of the war, february 24. i

remember him very well. we had a discussion about how the parliament should work, there were many proposals even to carry out such an evacuation more to western ukraine where it is safer, but we decided and supported each other enough that we should stay in kyiv, work in kyiv is not enough we also talked about it that since our military on the front lines are not fighting online, the parliament will not sit online, that is, we are working in the usual mode, the only thing is to ensure security issues that are simply necessary for us to gather a lot of people, especially since this a legitimate body, a legislative body, the only body in ukraine, a representative body, and we must comply with all security issues. factions of the groups, we consider the issues that will be considered on the agenda, we discuss together with the heads of the committees, the committees, meanwhile,

are also meeting in online mode, there are also amendments, or discussions on the issues of one or another, how to adopt a law, but we are already directly in the hall without press warnings without warning the mass media , we gather in the recording, we simply show how we work, we mostly learn to discuss less and more specifics during the plenary session itself we leave all discussions in online mode and we vote in the parliament showing, well, if you say it correctly, now unity, you know, this is a very difficult moment for us, because in the parliament there really is a competition of ideas, there are different political forces, there are different political views on this, we are a democratic country, but that is already the case in our country there is an agreement that we are trying to maintain unity and we are all trying to speak with one really political force ukraine and there are no plans of the parliament to do it again, well, at least for journalists, the meetings are open because well, first of all, there is a lot going on there

a lot of interesting things and often it is not often and this is always of public interest and secondly, in fact, i follow people's deputies and i very often see that they are streaming what is happening there on their phones on their social networks of security, the deputies violate it themselves well, you see, it is the responsibility of each and every one, now what are you talking about, we agree that streams can not be this issue of security, not of each particular deputy, but of the institution, now it is an absolutely serious responsible mission of a legitimate body well, this is definitely not for jokes, and it seems to me that this is not quite a stream after all. and this is what can be broadcast now. after an hour, we all agree that some time should pass after the meeting, this is an hour an hour and a half, then you can already display all this data, everything that happened in social networks, express your positions, and so on, as regards the accreditation of mass media, presence, and that

only if security allows us to do this, and foreign intelligence and the security service of ukraine, we will absolutely openly use all the levers that can be from the leadership of the parliament so that there is a presence of mass media, because we are interested in an open parliament. but as far as i understand, martial law is maintained , this will not happen to do yes, i am not sure that as long as the martial law is maintained, but as long as the security does not allow us to do it, we will not do it , because we are responsible now and for the lives then and for our mass information, you know absolutely how is the accreditation of the mass media now in ukraine? that is, everyone also signs the security issues, and frankly speaking, well, you know. well, immediately on the issue of presence here, the question and coverage of the work, that is, you can cover the work of this or that deputy or this or that faction in another way uh, in august in june, i'm sorry, there should have been an uh, eu summit, where

ukraine expects to receive the status of a candidate for eu members. accepted or is there anything else that needs to be fulfilled for the status of scandinavia - this is such a big, big question that is currently on the agenda. this is also a very responsible decision and for this we should approach it too. well, i would say so constructively and responsibly, and for the first time we used such active parliamentary diplomacy in my opinion, unfortunately, it was not very strongly involved in connection with covid and the fact that we actually underestimate somewhat , in my opinion, the parliamentary role of parliamentary democracy in diplomacy as such we took into account the fact that we created a working group that really consists of representatives of the e-e corps of the e-e parliament, and also included government representatives from the ministry of foreign affairs, the office of the president, this is so wide, i would say so wide the pool of people who are

now simply they simply travel and meet with whomever they can at various level meetings and just promote the need to accept us already as candidates for the european community why is this important this is important first of all because you know this now is such an urgent time, as for me, when we should use all opportunities to break this chain of war and show as much as possible that in the european union among the countries of the european union, there is unanimity and support for ukraine in this matter, as for our homework , as for me we completely fulfilled it as far as the candidate status is concerned, because this is only the first step towards acquiring full membership, because we completely filled out the questionnaire that the european commission asked us to do, and the second we we absolutely affirm that all the bodies of each government are acting legally and legitimately, everyone is performing their tasks now, this is a very basic issue that

can only be and of course that this is the first step to what we say that we have fulfilled the association agreement by about 68%, as they say in the government now a and b are actually candidacies - this is a completely political decision that we expect from the european commission as well as from the countries you know that still have some doubts or time. for example, we are talking about all the countries where i have been. i have already visited the baltic countries. i have been to poland. i have been to croatia. germany, like france, the netherlands, which practically have such a political position, i would say a

leadership position on this issue. also conducts various discussions on this matter, well, if so objectively with a cool head . look at it according to your feelings and beliefs. very much so that putin would get another chance to say that there is no unity in the european union, there is no unity regarding the countries of the european union. i would really not like that, so i remain optimistic and understand that political leaders and european leaders understand too responsible for this issue, i also wanted to raise the topic of the national marathon with you, well, in particular , because the council tv channel also participates there - it is a parliamentary tv channel. please tell me. and how long will this general joint marathon last ? this is not

exactly a question addressed to me, because i actually, well, we, i don't. i don't quite understand how long such a... well, this is exactly the method of covering the work, but it seems to me that now... at least from the beginning of february, i understand that you know, there was such a crisis that affected the mass media as well, because we had such, you know, despair in the first days, and we understood that we should probably just collectively cover those events and convey the truth about what is happening in ukraine, this is not really very simple. as far as i understand, there was a stage for all the mass media for the holdings that found out. i think that the first in ukraine was such a historic unity . as far as i understand, the ministry of culture directly supervises all the work oleksandr

tkachenko. i understand who is the curator of this process. well, what are your impressions because, for example, if we start from the position of the president's office, mykhailo podolyak says that there are these joint marathons, it still has to continue it's too early for everyone to conduct their own information policy, eh, again, there is a lot of criticism about this marathon, eh, some market experts say that some say it's canceled on time, let's say the second one says it's not on time but nevertheless, again, since you are a representative of the parliament and the tv channel rada is involved there, and there is a war in the country and freedom of the press, i think this will also be one of those moments that will be looked at in europe when they will make a decision to give ukraine the status of a candidate for eu membership first of all, you are absolutely right that freedom of speech is one of the criteria of freedoms that absolutely must be respected. regardless of the processes we are currently going through, martial law is almost a martial law, but you absolutely know that

during martial law, during the war , the paradigm of coverage also changes a little, because there is, after all, the state policy that exists during the war and the issue of disinformation that was constantly heard. liberalization of the market, in particular the television market, and on the other hand, is such a strong hand of state policy, which should be at the time of the approval of the so-called information state policy, this is always a constant discussion that continues in us and it from one side to the other side, this is not the first year and it was also in the last convocation of the parliament when laws were adopted on precautionary support and the impossibility of disinformation to ukraine and now it continues there are certain laws uhh that's why hmmm here's a question very debatable at the same time uh, how about me? you know right away, not the question is when this one and only marathon should be interrupted. it seems to me that the question here is also not the readiness of the rest of the television channels

to start work directly, because if we we are talking about the real television market , after all, it depends on advertising. we now understand that there is actually no advertising market in ukraine at the moment because it also depends on the country's economy. so, you know what the current situation of the advertising market in general is for ukraine, therefore, it is also a question of the ability of television channels to speak separately now and to produce a unified state policy as such , as regards the channel, the council, frankly speaking, has its own comments, and we and i have leaders for example, the parliament to its work, because we now understand that this is a very responsible attitude that the rada channel should have. well , i also got the opportunity to participate in the same marathon . we can't talk specifically about the style or the form of coverage, that's why here, you know, there's

nothing permanent. but there's nothing captive, that is, you just have to decide according to the possibility how it will be. further develop as the situation develops in ukraine, why did i dwell on this issue for so long because there were suspicions that they are using this large media resource for their political purposes, that is, the media detector seems to have calculated, for example, when the security service of ukraine published a video plot with the participation of viktor medvedchuk, who allegedly testifies against poroshenko. so, for example, during the national marathon, this material was shown more than 20 times, and here the question already arises: does the bank authority use this large media that was created to fight disinformation and propaganda for their political purposes and whether they see this situation exactly like this in europe. it is difficult for me to say whether they see such a situation in europe. it seems to me that it is necessary to really monitor, highlight and show,

twist if the situation is such that you think it is there are some violations of the ethics of this matter, i think that there will also be a question of resonance and patriotic coverage of these or other processes , uh, i think that we just need to follow and monitor, we absolutely trust the medi detector. i personally i trust the media detector in these positions , one more question should be followed. let me, according to the information policy, the cabinet of ministers of ukraine has allocated uah 165 million to finance the joint marathon of the russian-language freedom marathon, and the ministry of culture receives these funds. what is your position on of this question, should ukraine allocate such a large amount of money for russian-language content, again with the aim of counter-propaganda, well, this is also a very difficult question, because the issue of coverage of information policy in general, and especially the creation of new content abroad, including

russian-language content, it also has two parts on one side. as if we want to attract as many as possible to the side, and this is how i understand the ukrainian positions of the russian-speaking e-e, in general, the population of various countries, including the european union, that is, to convince them of some other positions i know that you are also russian-speaking, i can hear you in the studio, there are discussions in russian, and on the other hand, it is the content itself, which it should be, and if it is the state, the state position of the content is for sure it may be possible to assume such a placement as this. how do i personally feel about the appearance of such a tv channel? it is difficult for me to say. i do not know the full extent, for example , i am not familiar with the concept of broadcasting of such a channel. who will be on this tv channel on the air? it is already on the air. this is the well-known freedom house. plus ukraine , that is, he is now in the test, of course. well, why doesn’t he speak in the test, just like the marathon

speaks, and freedom speaks to different countries of the world and to foreign countries, so i understand that. that is, this is the part that would be broadcast on the tv channel broadcasting to each other what existed before that yes, what was the house, now the two channels have merged and for state money, well, on the basis of this, we should also monitor and see on the basis of how it meets these goals that are put before it, another question on may 231 i apologize, at the closed session of the verkhovna rada, again for the media, people 's deputies expressed their displeasure with the human rights representative of the parliament, lyudmila denisova , she says that the dismissal is illegal, that it will be challenged in court, that it is politically motivated the decision behind this is the president's office, uh, i know that the homeland, the political force to which you belonged, did not vote for this decision. please tell me from your point of view, there are just facts, you know

how they voted, human rights defenders say that the procedure was not followed, was denisova released legally or illegally well, look at this, if we are talking about the procedures and then about the review, that is, let 's start with the fact that we should thank lyudmila denisova for the work she did before this, this is the first because we have very little in general we say thank you to those persons who actually carried out. it seems to me that the work was carried out perfectly normally, at least from what i saw from the side. and which authorized person. and i did not have any questions about her work regarding the dismissal itself and the procedures that were followed. let's wait, then really the investigation if lyudmila believes that it should be submitted further to the court, well, absolutely. she has the right to this, we need to look at how far we have been. the motherland did not support. i know that many factions did not support this decision because they saw me reasons for the dismissal from this position, but as far as i understand from my point of view, it was probably difficult for ms. denis and lyudmila to

find a common language with the team that is now very proactive in their position with the president's office and not only with the president's office, but in principle with the ruling faction, that is, with the servant of the people. they have such a monomajority and they have the opportunity to change one or another representative from the verkhovna rada, even holding such positions. i think that this is very, very responsible for the rights there is a lot of work here, starting with prisoners and ending with any refugees who are here now, this is a colossal job of bringing all crimes to completion to a legal conclusion , and so on. involvement with that team and with those people who are currently in power, there should be continuous and constant communication and very simple communication. it seems to me that ms. denisova simply did not have such direct communication, i can

do, you said a lot. well, i didn't begin to answer. do you think that it was a political decision ? her resignation. i believe that it was a decision of the verkhovna rada of ukraine. it was legal. i can't say whether it was legal or illegal. it came in accordance with the procedure, which was by the way, i wasn't even at this meeting, so unfortunately i can't even say for sure how it went. and we don't know because we didn't have journalists there, they don't allow me, i was on a business trip, so i can prove it to you later if i'll look again. well, as far as i know, i saw the result, and as far as i understand, the meeting took place. all votes were cast. that is, you saw how the votes were cast. the results of the votes were also clear. who voted for dismissal? yes, i saw, but as far as i understand, the parliament did not investigate this. maybe i did it secretly, i just didn’t show it, i don’t know the investigation of what, the investigation, of her work, there should have been a decision made on the basis of some kind

of investigation, is it correct or should it have been just a decision, because i understand the decision of the legal the committee, according to the profile committee, which carries out the work of the corresponding committee, which is human affairs, and it is precisely he makes this conclusion, it is the first, it seems to me, since the beginning of the war, the decision of the verkhovna rada, which is, well, not very transparent, there are many questions about it, which lyudmila denisova, in fact, but i am dividing here, well , look, we talk about what we have and democratically approach all processes, which if there are questions, they should be asked, of course. receive answers, including in court proceedings now in the czech republic, you said that what are you doing in this country? what are your plans, and i am in the czech republic now ? meetings

at the level of parliamentary efforts at the level of parliamentary diplomacy, we talk a lot about the joint opportunities that exist. one of those countries that first accepted the russian federation's condemnation of the actions of the russian federation, and secondly, they adopted an absolutely balanced resolution that concerns the condemnation of the genocide against ukraine by the russian federation. now we also talked about the fact that the czech republic would be ready to adopt at the level of the two chambers of the parliament also a resolution on recognition of the russian federation as a country of terrorism, this is also very important. and we talked a lot about the help that the czech republic can give further in terms of armaments, and we also talked about the possibilities of involving experts from the lawyers of the czech trials and the

international criminal court, because we know that a lot of countries, 42 countries, have already submitted their own lawsuits to the international criminal court for crimes committed by the russian federation on the territory of ukraine. we would also like to connect experts from the czech republic in this regard, because we we understand that these further subjects and er, further opportunities, how those crimes will be investigated, advocated and so on, require a lot of effort, including that of our international partners, so we we asked for additional help, we also talked a lot with the speaker and the market about what kind of help the czech republic can provide for the reconstruction of ukraine and, by the way, she assured me that the czech republic is currently developing a special plan for ukraine where it would attract investments in its business structures to provide such of the plan to restore the reconstruction of our country, this is very important. this is true after the war. yes, the countries are not ready to invest while the war is going on. they are ready. i would not say that the countries are ready to

support ukraine. this is very important, and they are ready. now join investment projects, which can be because they say that they are ready, for example, to go to the business that came out now, this is a russian business from the ukrainian and for the ukrainian economy, because it is very, very important, but you must have heard now or from i recently read that prague stops accepting refugees from ukraine. i did not hear such a warning from the government today. by the way, if we are talking about the czech republic , an exclusive interview with the president of the czech republic milošzeman told about ukraine russia crimea nato everything he thinks you can come and read thank you very much for this conversation olena kondratyuk deputy speaker of the verkhovna rada of ukraine thank you when your task is to lead the country to victory this matter of my life you do everything in your power for this we to this issue we approach

very, very specifically, we congratulate general valeriy , the diligent life of our ukrainian citizens is the highest value under his wise command, making it impossible for a person to suffer, the armed forces of ukraine are destroying the second army of the world i want to ask our people to believe in the alkaline and to believe in the armed forces of ukraine glory to the heroes glory to ukraine vasyl zima's big broadcast my name is taras zima two hours of airtime and my colleague with you until 9:00 p.m. two hours of your time we will talk about the most important two hours to find out about the war, it turns out that our air serhiy zgoretska military summaries of the day what in the world will yury the physicist tell two hours more to be aware of economic news protested oleksandr marchenko he tells us about the economy during war and new sports yevhen pastukhov is ready

to talk about sports for two hours in the company of favorite presenters about culture during the war lina is ready to talk about culture during the war or something else that many have become strange, maybe the weather will give us some optimism mrs. natalka didenko is ready to tell us and also the distinguished guests of the studio in we will be there today volodymyr gruzko if everything goes well the events of the day in two hours vasyl winter's big broadcast a project for smart and caring people in the evening all the press good evening we are from ukraine misha actually clean up in general, from this table, so to speak, on which this war is being waged, ideas, ideas that were articulated by the patriarch wing, it is more important to complete these ideas, and now there are projects, including european projects, aimed at deconstructing these ideas that

caused the war from the very beginning, and what do you have i mean, what is it? what exactly is it about? it is about this very ideology of the russian world, about which there is already a lot of talk, and about which i spoke 10 years ago as explosive . before this war, in the end, unfortunately, it led to a war to an ideology that must be deconstructed as this fire, it must be removed now . so, in my opinion, efforts should be directed to removing and neutralizing this fire, and there is already a priority for let's say for my work, i said i want my colleagues, including at the event. you know the patriarch of the russian orthodox church kirill personally and you have observed the metamorphoses about which you have repeatedly told other media in interviews. my question is for you personally. the end is so uh with in view of the influence that the russian orthodox church has on this war, in your opinion, patriarch kyrylo will eventually end up on the bench accused of what is currently

happening in ukraine, you know that he is definitely guilty of this war, he is directly responsible for it together with other instigators of this war . he will find himself on a bench like this, and in any case it will be up to the tribunal and those institutions, instances and international courts that will consider this case, it is possible that this will happen, that is why i would certainly not exclude, but in any case, this is the competence of the relevant bodies, which are called judicial bodies , and that tribunal, which must definitely be held in relation to the criminals of this war, on the part of the russian federation, and again, i want to emphasize once again that all those involved will go, so who, who, who led putin will go to war under the leadership of the russian orthodox church, nothing in us is eternal, so people are not eternal, but their ideas may remain and these ideas will be dangerous. it seems to me that we need to think strategically in order to neutralize the the future, this day, these ideas so that this war

will never happen again in ukraine so kirill thank you for this conversation, thank you june 5, the day of belgorod-dniester ukraine is majestic unconquered cities of ukraine zaporizhzhia the city of harsh metallurgists, glorious motor builders and the powerful hydroelectric power plant on the dnieper and this is also the cradle of the cossack family of ukraine, who never knelt before anyone for constipation
