there is little time left before the frosts, what to do so far, i haven't decided, zoya, what about the local authorities , or is it this? i don’t have much time, please, is there any money at all, why, or just honestly, then tell the citizens that there is no money in the state and local budgets, please rely solely on your own strength, well, it will at least be honest, please, regarding the compensation due to the person that was submitted citizens, i applied myself because my house is also damaged in the kyiv region. but as for the city of kyiv, the city of kyiv has already allocated uah 600 million just for the restoration work of damaged houses from buildings, and you also promised us another uah 200 million from the state budget. now

all the works are actually being carried out, estimates are being drawn up so that before the start of the heating season, these are the affected houses. mr. mykola, it was in the city of kyiv that restoration work was carried out. as you can see the situation, where to get money, or should i honestly tell people that money may not be enough for everyone ? yehor, you and i have already discussed this topic, uh, you see, they are all here. i don’t know how pollyanna is, but everyone is definitely affected already since the war, because everyone has already written such statements, i explained to you that they have not yet been submitted nadiya, i'm just curious about these people who left yesterday with suitcases, first of all, where and if there are any, because i know that all of them are in kyiv reserve er, well, dormitories that used to be well, then somehow they were privatized there was no time to strengthen the displaced persons since the 14th year. where have you strengthened them now and what should they do next? i will tell you now, so the first thing is that

it will be about restoration and compensation for you, well , it will definitely be simple, it will take time, i understand that we we all want today and now that everything be compensated, for this it will take time, i think that with the end of the war, we will uh, at the expense of its reparations, including compensating uh, citizens for their terrible things, uh, regarding city houses, uh, panize said, we have allocated the corresponding funds have already started not only with words, we have 11 houses each, those that were most affected on ours, corresponding restoration work has begun there are houses that were more or less damaged, the cabinet of ministers has already allocated uah 200 million for the glazing of these houses there is no more damage, no of broken glass, here we will definitely try, and i am convinced that we will do it before the heating season, these works have

been completed, and as for this house, it will also of course be included in the list of those houses that you need to restore the only question, leave it open to yourself that it or it will be possible to restore it if it can be done, today's technologies allow you to do, for example, the house according to lobanovskyi, it is a difficult decision, you need to make decisions there, difficult work is difficult enough, a lot, but it's all possible to do that applies only to yesterday, which were evacuated from the houses where those who need a place to live in the district are provided temporarily. of course, these are kindergarten schools. the conditions are probably difficult today, taking into account that our city has already received about 80,000 internally displaced persons, since these dormitories that you are talking about did not exist at the same time and at the same time,

it is not impossible to solve such and such problems, but the meeting took place as follows about the houses that were destroyed before that, and in every place there are friends, there are relatives, they move away, and so on. in short, in the end, i correctly understood that there is a possibility that this house will not be restored that's right, there is such a possibility. well, of course. well, you have to look at the load-bearing structure, if they are, well , due to a serious violation, then there is such a probability, but taking into account the fact that the blow was inflicted from above, then i think that the load-bearing structures of the lower ones are not damaged and the house can be repaired. thank you mykola povoroznyk first deputy head of the kyiv city state administration zoya yarosh is a deputy of the city council of the capital, and levko prokipchuk , an expert on the practical application of customs legislation and an ex-chief, is already joining lviv customs greetings. good day. we

apologize for having to wait a little while there . you know that hot news arrived yesterday. terrorist acts continue. unfortunately, let's talk about what will happen from july 1, very soon, namely, the zero customs duty will cease to apply. for cars, we had such an opportunity to bring cars to ukraine, as we used to say on euro plates, but without these taxes, which had to be paid, well, please partially explain in this regard. has something changed in us now the situation at customs, are there queues, are they still trying to take advantage of the last few days? obviously, a lot of people are now trying to reset the border crossing and issue er, they bought their car and er, it actually stayed there for four days, you have to understand that now er, they have increased in all points of tropusk i even yesterday saw a message from the transcarpathian , even the head of the transcarpathian regional military

administration, where the head himself is planning a meeting with related services with hungary and slovakia in order to somehow resolve this issue to start crossing the border in general. in my opinion, the main problem is that bill 7418, which was voted on on june 21. it gave a very short period of time for people to orientate themselves, and in the end, if so, honestly, that is, i watched quite a bit this morning there is no information that the president has signed it. that is, we are saying that zero customs clearance has already been canceled since july 1, but in fact , until the president has signed it, it is still not uh, it is not uh, it has been established to publish it later, and there are four days left, and people think i can i still have time to go and bring it. is there any information on how many of these cars were imported during

this time ? what kind of cars are they and what are their prices? -e vehicles and there are a lot of such er-e let's say distorted information that er many people took advantage of that privilege by driving expensive vehicles , in fact the share of those expensive vehicles is insignificant, the vast majority of cars which were imported during the period of its zero customs clearance , let's say it is quite affordable, quite affordable below about three to four thousand euros, 3-4 thousand euros is the main range that was imported into ukraine, and this does not mean that we brought a huge pile of scrap metal here that has already been written off in europe but also

because there are environmental aspects that are important questions if you evaluate them because you have to understand that in our country the technical inspection has been canceled in general, so accordingly , we have a large share of cars that are older than those imported to you, they drive a lot of still soviet-made cars, that is, if it is evaluated from the point of view that, uh, people could export new cars to us, then for sure, yes, and on the other hand, people could buy for themselves, there is an inexpensive european car of the euro-parable standard and euro-2, after changing it, he changed the zhigul or moskvich that he had , that is, what is better, it is better that he continue to eat on zhigul or moskvich. is it better that he drove a volkswagen caddy there in 2005 or 2004? yes, but we remember we confirm that this norm has been introduced in order to simplify the delivery of cars for

the front, and we communicate constantly, well, every day. and he says that, well, this consumable material at the front, all these cars, because the big ones can’t be shot. and the small ones were brought for two weeks or a week and everything was not shot, but this norm really helped here for the import of cars for the armed forces of ukraine, nothing has changed, and the cars were imported to the armed forces of ukraine as humanitarian aid and they are brought quite quietly, that is, the number that i said is 200 thousand means, this is not taking into account those cars that were introduced as humanitarian aid, well, the ukrainian media and here, er, i am quoting, so the ukrainian media is driving through the streets of prague, a luxurious ferrari car with ukrainian license plates, number nn, several zeros, one, yes, czech capitals, we can now see, people

paid attention to luxurious expensive car ferrari 812 superface with ukrainian license plates, it is reported in the news, the car has odesa registration, we have a powerful production in odesa, elon musk lives there, you understand computers produce programs there, the customs office is just yours. this is your topic. yes, the car has been seen several times in odesa before . of the italian manufacturer of sports cars, which was first shown at the geneva motor show in 17th year, was sold in 17th year as the successor of trout in 12 berlinetta, now it is already driving around prague with in ukrainian, and i correctly understood that even all the expensive cars that were brought to ukraine during that time, including the ferrari, were imported at a zero rate. i understand correctly, obviously

there were no restrictions. but again, i do not believe that the car that you mentioned because imported in advance and with zero customs clearance, most likely it was introduced before this period and simply the one who used this car during the war drove it drove it. well, why couldn't he also during the war its interior, its curtain and it in in the salon, i bought it without paying any washing and excise taxes, it can actually be checked. you said yourself that you wanted a 2017 car, uh, it was imported. you can try to check when it was first registered. that he bought a bentley there, he said that i didn't buy it for myself, but for a friend from germany, because we don't have excise taxes, so the rates are cheaper, and i will give the difference to the armed forces of ukraine. this is the kind of speculation we could have had during this period or not obviously, there could have been. i believe that the mistake was that they did not set a limit when establishing

this benefit. well, they set a limit that this benefit does not apply to the so-called automobile insurance for which it is paid to submit good ones. again, the law on zero customs clearance provided for exceptions that do not apply. these rules for cars that were manufactured in aggressor countries that imported flowers similarly, it was possible to set such a limit that these benefits do not apply to vehicles for which zero tax is paid how do you the first thing i understand clearly is because i listened to the research committee of the verkhovna rada and listened to the opposition of the ministry of finance. it seems to me that their expectations from revenues to the state budget are clearly overestimated, because when they calculate the amount of tax that is not you will reach the budget. so they calculate that the same number of vehicles will be imported. it is obvious that when these benefits are canceled, the number of vehicles will fall several times so that for comparison it was still

clear in march of this year when they were operating current rates were imported into ukraine in 2013, compared to 200,000 vehicles in three months, i.e., the taxes are significant to the state budget, i do not expect that the number of people crossing the border will decrease and the burden on the checkpoints thank you , levko prokipchuk, an expert in legislation, and then yuriy fizi is our colleague, and he interviewed the extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador of slovenia to ukraine, it's very interesting, let's watch greetings my name is yuriy fizar on the espresso tv channel. i conduct international news and it has already become a tradition that sometimes i invite famous people to talk to them about what is being said in the world about ukraine and how the world helps us. mostly, i

invite ambassadors, the ambassadors of those countries who they really help in the words of those countries whose names can be named, we call them friends of ukraine because we can rely on them in such a difficult time, during the russian aggression that began on february 24, and we know that they will help us. and today my guest is ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of slovenia to ukraine tomas mencin. greetings, mr. ambassador. thank you for joining me today. so we begin our interview. my first question will be this. did you return to kyiv on june 14, did the work of your embassy , ​​consulate , change during the war ? was open from the middle of march i personally worked in rzeszów close to the border with ukraine from the middle of march and was at work every day my job changed when i returned to kyiv and

the consulate was open all the time during the war we they left kyiv on the third day of the war, but the consulate continued its work, of course we cannot work as before, we have a smaller number of employees because you simply cannot call the entire staff here. for example, my secretary now works online from krakow, another from the ministry of foreign affairs in lublin is engaged in supporting ukrainians in lviv consul for economic affairs, our colleague is ukrainian. diplomats are with me in kyiv. let's talk about ukrainian refugees who are currently in slovenia. how many are there in your country? but there are a few thousand, less than 10 and let's say more than

5. slovenia is a small country. many of them come and go, so the number changes. but quite a few of them ask for protection in slovenia , that is, they temporarily stay in ukraine. we have already included them in our schools. children attend educational institutions . we even have ukrainian classes . how long can they stay? you said a certain time, but how long can it be? i think it is important for them that it is not for long because they want to return to ukraine. we allow them to stay for how long . how much do they need? i understand that people want ip home. of course, you already mentioned ukrainian students who study in slovenian

schools, but i have a question about students who are getting higher education. do you have special programs for ukrainian students? i am asking because of that. that many ukrainian youth currently can not continue to obtain proper higher education , it is obvious that because of the war, unfortunately, they are looking for some options in europe, does slovenia offer such options , and this is a test for us and for ukraine provide more opportunities, we already have programs in slovenian and some in english, as far as i know, many ukrainian students also attend english classes. i am convinced that we need to open more and more places for those who would like to study in the four universities that are

in our country, mr. ambassador we are sincerely grateful to slovenia and your government for the weapons we receive from you . last week, the minister of defense of your country announced that slovenia sent 35 armored vehicles to ukraine. are further military plans planned sending i ask this so that our viewers understand because 10 days ago the minister of foreign affairs of slovenia, tanja fajon, emphasized that your country will shift the emphasis of aid to ukraine to aid in reconstruction and the provision of humanitarian aid, so your previous government focused on providing us with military aid, well and now the quote from your minister of foreign affairs, we have certain projects with which we can help ukraine, for example, demining, and we can find allies in the post-war reconstruction

this is the end of the quote, mr. ambassador. does this mean that ukraine will no longer receive weapons from slovenia? we cannot say that now, the infantry vehicles are in the city, which should not be announced, and soon they will be where they are most needed, and this is an achievement of our new government, he confirmed this shipment and it was given to ukraine, unfortunately, our warehouses are almost empty, we have a small arsenal of weapons, so the government says that we will have to change and strengthen other ways of assistance, for example, as you said, demining, we have large capacities. we hear every day that it is very necessary and i will talk to the ukrainian authorities about the fact that our sappers will be able to come regarding how international organizations work in

the field of demining in slovenia, there is an international trust fund in this field, as well as support for the affected cancellations, these international organizations are not only slovenian, therefore independent legislation of ukraine is needed demining will be a priority in helping ukraine. thank you very much for this help. by the way, let's talk a little about the european union . slovenia has been a member of the eu as far as i know since may 1 2004. can you tell the ukrainian viewers why it is so important for ukraine to become a member of the european union one day, it is very important. slovenia will celebrate 31 years of independence tomorrow and we remember the day when slovenia declared its independence with a constitutional act and

the next day implemented it was june 26, 1991 year, but the political and armed forces of his former slavia wanted to prevent independence, they attacked and started a ten-day war, we were in a situation very similar to ukraine, we did not know in which the european union was number one and this is the greatest achievement in our 31 years of independence to be a member of the eu as well and maybe even more important. this is for ukraine. we are very happy that last night in brussels european leaders decided to grant candidate status to ukraine and moldova. slovenia supported it . from the very beginning at the same time, she loudly expressed reservations about the fact that many

criteria must be observed and we will help ukraine in their implementation, which will lead to eu membership, but what opportunities membership in the european union gave to slovenia when it joined it is interesting to note that slovenia for a long time was and i think is the least eurosceptic country in europe if you ask the population if this is favorable, you will hear the least amount of euroscepticism in slovenia. to combine it with nato membership, we are talking about european integration and euro-atlantic integration, we became nato members a few years later, the population supports the european union much more than for example, membership in nato, but i must say that we

already have a lot of support for nato among the population. thank you to your government. thank you to the slovenian people for helping us get this candidate status that was given to us on thursday. okay, ukraine was also given the status of a partner in the three seas initiative. it seems it was 10 days ago, what are the possibilities of such a partnership both for ukraine and for the three seas initiative itself, the decision of the three seas initiative to join ukraine is recent ukraine received the status of a partner but de facto - this is full access to the group. of course, this is important. in general, this is an organizational initiative of eu members on the territory of the european union, but the rapprochement of ukraine will be useful for us and for ukraine,

including projects in the field of logistics infrastructure, and we can see with the development of recent events three months that ukraine is extremely important for logistics, and it itself also needs it. i would also like to say about one more initiative that ukraine is currently presiding over, this is the danube strategy, the prime minister of your country was invited to take participation in the conference on the reconstruction of ukraine, this conference is scheduled for july 4-5 in the swiss city of lugano, how do you see the european marshall plan for ukraine, this is a big plan, the plan for the reconstruction of ukraine, president zelenskyi spoke about the restoration of ukraine even before the war, and now it is even more infrastructure related with europe says that each country will take on

part of the responsibility slovenia will definitely wash its own we need to understand how far we can go yesterday i visited zhytomyr it was mine the first trip outside of kyiv, we assessed the scale of reconstruction that zhytomyr and the zhytomyr region will need. slovenia cannot examine the entire territory of ukraine, of course we understand that every corner of ukraine is equally important to us, but we need to understand where exactly we are most needed . maybe geographically, maybe we will take a certain demining zone or we will find another option where we can make our contribution to the reconstruction mr. ambassador, what are the main areas of economic cooperation between slovenia and ukraine and how are they can continue to develop after

ukraine got one step closer to the european union on thursday, the ukrainian market is very important for us and slovenia is becoming an increasingly important market for ukraine in the field of economy, we have quite a strong pharmaceutical company and now we are working hard to ensure that the company remains in ukraine on a large scale and increase your activity, you probably know that the verkhovna rada adopted a new law in the field of pharmaceuticals that may prevent foreign companies from existing and working on all the power in ukraine. thank you. slovenia is making every effort to bring ukraine and russia to the negotiating table through various diplomatic channels. ljubljana offers a place for such negotiations, or can ljubljana offer itself as a mediator during them? well, is everything

moving somehow? we are still we are observing the situation and the possibility of dialogue, we fully understand what ukrainian leaders are saying about the current state of the possibilities of negotiations, no one should push ukraine to them when aggression prevents honest negotiations as you may know, slovenia once offered a place for a meeting between the former presidents and putin, but now we are far from repeating it, it is not comparable, but i just remember that you offered earlier . thank you at least for offering a place on thursday russian ministry of foreign affairs of affairs said that slovenia, together with croatia, brought relations with russia to the point of freezing, is it because of the

russian war in ukraine or the relations between ljubljana and moscow were tense even before the beginning of the russian aggression in ukraine, if i understood you correctly, it was russia that suspended these relations, and i will return to why european leaders supported the granting of candidate status to ukraine in order to show russia that no one can stop the nation's independence and desire to join those with whom it shares values ​​and wants to develop democracy with the help of the democratic values ​​of this organization like the eu to show moscow that aggression cannot hinder any nation mr. ambassador my last question to you for today is this a gas war russia against europe somehow affects slovenia, have you prepared for it, and if it ever

comes to a ban on the supply of natural gas by the european union as part of the seventh package of sanctions, does slovenia support it, i do not have an exact answer, but slovenia, like all countries, is affected and we include it in the so-called package of measures that we must take against the aggressor russia, i can say that slovenia was aware of the diversity of gas supplies even when we became independent from the former yugoslavia from since the beginning of independence, slovenia has been buying gas not only from russia or eastern markets, but also from other sources, for example algerian gas, we have been using it in large quantities since the beginning of independence . that is, you were ready for possible problems with the supply of russian natural gas. believe it or not

, we understand that we are ready. responsibility and we will find a solution good mr. ambassador thank you very much for the help we receive from your country from your government and to you personally thank you for joining me today well i will remind that with me today was the ambassador of the republic of slovenia tomas menchyn, they talked about the obvious cooperation between ukraine and slovenia. this is a difficult time for ukraine and about the help we receive from slovenia and its people. well, obviously they also talked about the european prospects of ukraine and once again the support of slovenia was with me the ambassador of this country in ukraine tomas manson my name is yuri fizer see you
