and nato allies from encouraging ukraine to agree to unfavorable peace terms, while russia's brutal war drags on, this is exactly what you talked about with pavel klimkin, you asked accordingly if johnson says so, then there are grounds for such fears, but johnson warns against looking for bad peace in ukraine, because such a peace would be exclusively temporary and would cause ukraine even more pain and additional economic losses. well, any peace in fact will certainly be temporary since, well, as long as russia exists, we will not be safe, this is 100%. but it is really important for us what this peace will be and how we will use the peace time in order to prepare and if possible actually prevent the next serious big war, it is important to have an informative message from

volodymyr zelenskyi said, but there is still a lot of work ahead to implement the recommendations of the european commission, the verkhovna rada must adopt the necessary laws, and the cabinet of ministers must develop a road a card for obtaining the status of a candidate is an engaged, serious step in mutual ukraine and the eu, it is not just friendship, not sympathy, but a firm and official intention to become one whole in the near future and as of today, ukraine will be able to participate in the work of certain bodies and new eu programs, access to which is limited for third countries, the largest collection of antiquities in the history of independent ukraine was seized from the ex-people's deputy, part of the confiscated items was demonstrated today at the museum of the history of ukraine, what kind of collection is this and who owns it

removed will not tell tetyana litvinova she is with us in direct contact tanya i congratulate you and i am waiting for details iryna i congratulate you and all our viewers we are in the museum of the history of ukraine and today here the relevant minister of culture, the minister of vesta , the prosecutor general presented the largest exhibition of antiquities in the history of ukraine's independence. it is a unique collection that ukrainian museums have not seen before. these are truly unique exhibits. a deputy of the third and fourth convocations. also, at one time he was a representative of the president in crimea and in the early 2000s he headed the council of ministers of crimea and the criminal proceedings that are currently

being conducted concern the financing of the terrorist dpr, conducting business in crimea, as well as connections with the axionov, and he was searched in the center of kyiv for several days, almost a week, and as noted by the minister of internal affairs, denys monastyrskyi, it took two wagons, there are a lot of different items in total, about six thousand of them, in more detail, we will hear from iryna venediktova, more than six thousand items of antiques, swords, sabers , helmets, chain mail, of course, arrowheads and arrows to the spears of rifles and carbines, amphorae around the neck, hryvnia coins, dishes and household items, all this was seized in one of the office premises in the city of kyiv, in particular, in an electrical panel and in an attic, in conditions that are generally very far from the conditions

for storing such things. well, precisely because these were stored artifacts of improper conditions part of the exposition lost part needs a long and expensive restoration here we were shown akinaka these are such swords as well as helmets - it is mainly bronze bronze period and also late late middle ages this is now evidence in the case therefore, it is not possible to transfer the entire collection to the museum fund for the time being. and it is estimated at several million dollars. this is a truly unique find , so the minister of culture oleksandr tkachenko hopes that after the investigation is completed, this entire collection will be transferred to the museum fund of ukraine and will be distributed according to the profiles of the museums. because some of the found things are so unique that

there are simply no such similar things in the expositions of ukrainian museums and they do not exist, but let's hope that very soon ukrainians can see these unique things on this i conclude iryna i pass the word to you yes thank you and to you tanya i really hope that soon everyone who wants to will be able to see this collection in museums this was our correspondent tetyana litvinova and from kyiv and on this we say goodbye to you this is the next news release you will see already at 14:00 on the air of our channel espresso news and the euroespresso program for ukrainian refugees in europe, a joint broadcast with the atp channel, radio svoboda programs , voice of america time-time programs, inclusion of journalists of public television news programs bbc news ukraine and franz 24 as well as the broadcast of the information

to the already traditional meeting on fridays, and i want to say right away that most of our conversation with you will be devoted to this event that we all expected, which took place last night, this is what ukraine received the status of a candidate for membership of the european union. this is really quite an important event in the development of our country, because it is from yesterday that ukraine is defined as part of the civilized world as part of a united europe. for many years, i have been talking to you about the fact that this is unlikely will it happen quickly, however, the war started by russia against ukraine forced the europeans to act much more promptly than i think they expected from themselves, and thus ukraine and the neighboring republic of moldova, which, by the way, suffers from of actual russian occupation for three and a half

decades have received this candidate status, this is a special candidate status, you are wonderful . you know this candidate status is connected with the fact that ukraine and the republic of moldova received a whole series of conditions from the european commission in the case of ukraine and seven blocks of conditions only after if these conditions are fulfilled by a certain period, it will be possible to start talks about ukraine's accession to the european union, negotiations simply for ukraine to join the european union. if these conditions are fulfilled within a certain time ukraine will be forced to get rid of this status, like me, the republic of moldova, i will say right away that i do not really believe that ukraine will get rid of the status of a

candidate member of the european union. -members of the european union asked an absolutely valid question to the european commission. how can the principle of candidate status be granted to member states of the post-soviet space if they do not meet the requirements that were nominated to other candidates, what does the candidate status look like for the member states of the european union in principle. they first fulfill these conditions, which are nominated by the commission, then they receive candidate status, and no one can deprive them of it later, but they first fulfill this language, and by the way, this is the procedure yesterday was applied to georgia, which, like ukraine and the republic of moldova, submitted its application to the

european union about the european perspective of georgia, it is said absolutely clearly, along with this, georgia unlike ukraine and moldova, she did not receive candidate status, but she received conditions, and if she fulfills these conditions, they will give her candidate status, which no one will be able to take away from her, we have a different situation, although i repeat, i do not really believe that we will get rid of this candidate status, i do not really believe that we will be a country that for the first time in history holds candidate status with conditions and will get rid of candidate status because it did not fulfill these conditions, but it could be different. it could be that ukraine had this candidate status and

no negotiations have taken place and this may continue for years absolutely clearly. therefore, we must also be aware of all these problems that may arise if we do not fulfill all of this. let 's look at them in general in order to clearly specify them. the first is to implement the procedure for the selection of judges of the constitutional court, including the process of the previous selection based on an assessment of their integrity and professional skills in accordance with the recommendations of the venice commission, we are talking about the fact that no ukrainian government, both current and future, could

to make a decision on the appointment of such judges of the constitutional court who will not protect the interests of the constitution of the state but the interests of the current government, and that is why the procedure is proposed, which is the impossibility of the influence of the government on the creation of the constitutional court. and on what decision this constitutional court will make, we know the situation when of ukraine significantly influenced the situation in the state called into question the development of democratic processes in our state the most obvious decisions this decision which allowed the president of ukraine, viktor yanukovych, to return to the old version of the constitution of ukraine after his election as president in 2010, in an not only illegal but unnatural way, and instead of a parliamentary presidential republic , introduce a presidential republic and start

building an authoritarian regime immediately with this card. the court did not help yanukovych very much because in 2013 there was a popular uprising, which in 2014 ended with the collapse of the regime. and another rather important decision of the constitutional court, which many are also questioning this decision in 2019, which made it possible to hold extraordinary elections and dissolve the current ukrainian parliament, it also led to serious consequences from the point of view of democratic processes, the results of these consequences we will atone today if we talk about the work of state institutions, these two decisions already illustrate the importance would have a constitutional court if its judges were guided by constitutional norms and not by the opportunistic interests of people who came to power temporarily and

are always considered as it happens in the post-soviet period the enemy who came forever. so this is the condition of the constitutional court regarding the constitutional court of the european commission to limit arbitrariness . because this judicial reform was not brought to the end, so that there were very serious claims of the public in the media about the integrity of the candidates to the supreme council of justice to the highest qualification commission of judges, and how the judicial system will function in ukraine will depend on these bodies, and without a transparent judicial system, no reforms are possible, no prosperity is possible, and no accession to the european union will be possible even in the foreseeable

future, because no one will conduct negotiations with a country in which there is no fair trial, turkey will be a candidate for 23 years, members of the european union are waiting for negotiations to continue victory, they are not there with this turkish people very often pass judgments that are needed by the authorities. well, there are no such situations in the european union. there are two more tasks related to the fight against corruption. the first is the completion of the appointment of the head of the specialized anti-corruption prosecutor's office . known processes in the ukrainian government in that there are officials who are not interested in ukraine's continuation of the anti-corruption course that was the result of the victory of the maidan in 2000, the actual implementation of the decision is blocked because this person who

won the competition for the head of the specialized anti-corruption prosecutor's office. she does not look like a person capable of cooperating with the structures of the executive power, as these structures like it. again, people came to power for a certain time, and i think that they came for life, and in fact the work of state institutions is blocked for the sake of their cabinet interests, and now the european commission is clearly saying this. it is necessary to complete the decision regarding this candidate who won, this is a requirement, it will be fulfilled, believe me. also, eh it is necessary to hold a competition for the position of the director of the national anti-corruption bureau so that a new director appears who will be honestly elected again with all standards, sometimes there will be no questions , there will be no suspicions that such a person can be connected to the office of the president of ukraine with the ukrainian by the government and by implementing statutes, because the

director of the national corruption bureau should be an independent structure, a figure who can at any time bring charges against any official, even at the highest position, and put handcuffs on such people to make their criminal activities impossible if they are engaged in such activities or we perfectly understand that a person dependent on the authorities will always wait for permission will combine and this will not be a fight against corruption, a fight that will lead to the strengthening of corruption threats in the ukrainian state, which in the end will nullify all our efforts and slap all those who dream of european prospects, it is also a rather serious blow to the memory of those of our defenders who are fighting for a democratic, european, sovereign ukraine without corruption of populism and lies, money laundering legislation should be brought into line with international standards, and ukraine should adopt

a strategic plan for reforming the law enforcement sector in 2014, after the victory of the ukrainian people on the maidan, this reformation began, which was later suspended in the interests of oligarchic clans of populist forces, and now the european commission clearly requires the ukrainian state to return to the maidan of 2014, to return to the interests of the ukrainian people, otherwise the status the candidate may be frozen, the fifth and sixth conditions are related to oligarchization, kyiv must adopt an anti-oligarchic law, which, as you remember, was adopted by the ukrainian parliament , but at that time there were quite serious suspicions that this law was adopted not so much to fight against oligarchs as in certain political interests that now look like they compromise the ukrainian state in the eyes of the civilized world as a state that is covering up the private political interests of a certain circle of individuals by fighting the oligarchs and

when the special commission adopts its opinion on this anti-ligarchy law, the verkhovna rada of ukraine will change it as you, not the special commission, will also demand from ukraine the approval of a new law on the media, which would meet the norms of the european union, this is also a very important law for us, for journalists, for i will remind the entire civilized world of a blatant example of lawlessness during this war period, when officials from the rtr concern disconnected digital broadcasting
