anti-flood defense trade, he distinguishes, see mr. zaluzhnyi, the commander-in-chief of the e-e armed forces, reported that the russians carried out airstrikes with phosphorus bombs on this snake island, and the question arises, why is there no one there, there are no ukrainian weapons there? well, what are they? what does it give them? which got into some mass media actually by our military from satellite images where part of the equipment was visible and also this tornado complex, which i did not mention, and when the russians found out that there was such intelligence data that the equipment that was destroyed by the general staff of the russian federation the day before, the decision was destroyed, the one that they did not take, they destroyed, they say , the satellites themselves, the photos gave different information, it was simply abandoned, and therefore, so that it did not fall into our hands

, it seems they destroyed it with the help of airstrikes, zmiiny island. as i understand it, our military will no longer occupy it because it is too dangerous . the general staff has its own vision, the actual strategy is to return it to ukraine again and place some of our units there and also anti-ship units and this will allow them to generally stay away from our coast at a dangerous distance in order to avoid damage by our ship systems if we place them on the snakes on the variable island this will allow them move far enough from the coast to a dangerous distance er, even to such a distance that it will be problematic to strike with those

er but if we can gain a foothold on the island and deploy powerful air defense there, it will be possible to control the shipping traffic over the northwestern part of the black sea, and this in such a strategic plan will be quite a serious breakthrough and such a rather serious bastion of e-e for the defense of our cellular borders of ukraine, but before how to do it we need to make sure why because we currently have a situation where we practically er poor people of the country suffer from er daily arrivals of cruise missiles from er strikes with missile weapons you know nikolay suffers in a recent tragedy happened in odesa, by the way, today is the day of mourning for the dead in the village of zatoka, well, near the republic. by the way, there may be some clarifications . well, at this moment, the spirits of 20 dead, one person and

about 40 people who were injured are located, uh, they turned, they were forced to seek medical help i will help you now, they will help you , there are seriously wounded among them, well, this is yet another act of such an international nature. i do not know state terrorism, because, uh, so that there is no one to say, where are they aiming, no, there is no come specifically to civilian facilities, this is a living house, there are no military facilities, it is a concrete nine-story living house that corresponds to football, it is used by civilians, uh , there lived a football team of children's uh, children's and youth sports, teams that left the day before and the arrival of a new football team was expected. and actually it is clear that not a few military facilities do not apply, this is another crime and a rather serious one. to the responsibility of all involved persons, by the way

, they often say that nowadays russia has allegedly run out of precision weapons, they are not using high-precision missiles, but tell me, please, do you also think that it is accidental that they sometimes fall into civilian objects? do they really want to to terrorize the civilian population, each case is individual. that is, i cannot say that the accuracy is such, or they have run out of weapons, or they lack the accuracy of weapons. you understand that odesa is shelled quite powerfully almost every day, but er, taking into account that the effectiveness of our er, air defense forces, which intercept a large part of the missiles, which are quite expensive and expensive, even we have recently intercepted missiles that previously could not even let's say, the alarm sounded only when it had already arrived and there was bach only then

did the alarm sound in the city, these are missiles that were launched from the territory of the occupied crimea, the bastion of the coastal complexes of the onyx missiles, which fly quite fast , almost 2.5 times the speed of sound, and the approach time from uh, he made the launch point to odesa about well, about 300 seconds, you understand, during this time, uh, they couldn’t help deploying a powerful right to meet this strong force, they couldn’t even give a warning to civilians to go into shelter, but uh, it’s the last week it was officially reported that a number of these missiles were successfully intercepted, and after the russians lost several dozen, i repeat, dozens of rather expensive missiles that were developed and earned earlier to break through the air defense of the air strike groups of the nato countries, that is, they are

they were designed in such a way to break through anti-aircraft defenses and to hit the target undetected, they are very dangerous, they really bothered us and mykolaiv in odessa, we learned to intercept them as far as odessa is concerned. unfortunately, mykolaiv was hit by a salvo of 10, almost dozens they hit such rockets there, the situation is a little different and it has to do with geography, i won't go into details now, but it captures the pain. thank you, ruslan. yes, thank you, a very thorough and comprehensive answer. the head of the national police department in the odesa region, the security expert was with us and already in touch, serhiy khlan, deputy of the kherson regional council , adviser to the head of the kherson regional military administration, a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine, mr.

serhiu, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, kherson region is ukraine, there is no doubt about it. yes, i would too i wanted to ask you something, mr. serhiy, and to believe during the war, in general, i was taught not to trust anyone , and now i am deliberately exposing myself to criticism, but there is a lot of talk about some counteroffensive actions you see, i am careful . kherson, the russian invaders, well, this life is uncomfortable, let's say so. and you know, you don't have to believe me

because i'm directly when you are and i can observe everything that happens to you and that number on the front lines and just to observe the spirit of our military and just to observe everything that is happening. well, this is not yet counteroffensive actions, er, it is tactical successes that are happening today, including from the mykolaiv direction, there is exactly where it is today. well and in general, for the last two months, although the military asks me very much not to comment, and it is precisely the command of the south, and i am trying to do it , they call me exactly the name of the population centers where we are squeezing the enemy a little bit because you really need to understand that war is an art, it is peculiar because we are squeezing the enemy from

a populated area, he is counterattacking, we are repelling his attack, and this is a very difficult, complex military situation, behind which are the lives of our servicemen, but still, i can state only one thing is that we are really advancing little by little and have tactical successes along the entire front line and even where i am directly located , but this is not yet a counteroffensive, although we all understand that a counteroffensive will definitely be the result these tactical successes, which have been going on for the third week, and for the third week, we are gradually pushing back the enemy, we are giving him blows, and by the way, just right. this is the synergy of the work of our armed forces and

tactical successes, together with the coordination of partisans and the resistance movement inside the occupied kherson region , are giving results only on the front line and the neck crushing of munitions er-e ammunition warehouses repair bases technicians traffic jams accumulation of military equipment of orks is just right this synergy together gives not what you know vera but where there is confidence in the fact that we will definitely liberate our native land that we will definitely move to the counteroffensive and we will drive away the enemy and the occupier and the traitors who are there today and by the way there are not so many of them and they are already trembling and afraid and i don't know exactly what i wanted i would

beg your pardon to clarify, if it is possible, a few words about the partisan movement, to say whether they are really felt by their activities, and people know that next to every traitor there is a ukrainian who holds him at gunpoint . ukraine i would that's what he said, look, you're definitely not kidding. one already joked, he went to the kobzon, yes, this is the boy they solemnly buried there. and by the way, well, you know that. russian propaganda held such a funeral there, but i think every traitor should see he will think before they even think about the betrayal of the

ukrainian people and the betrayal of his state . kovalev, a deputy of the verkhovna rada, who went to the occupied kherson region, supposedly to fulfill his parliamentary powers, as he said, but in fact cooperate with the enemy and say that kherson region is a region that will gradually integrate into the russian federation. he recently recorded a video from the hospital where he was lying there wounded and said that it's okay, after all, i'm still alive, as long as i'm alive, i want mention that he is still alive but it will definitely not be long, the director of the colony of the 90s, by the way, he has been there for more than two weeks, he had an attack, but he is still not coming out of the hospital, and what will happen to him with his legs, i am sure that for sure already will not run away from

kherson region and we will definitely attract him to responsibility, therefore, every traitor should think and not just think, but understand that the punishment will come and will come much faster than we liberate our native land, and we will liberate it soon. sergey, we are still interested in the question of what happened to the mayor of the city, igor kolikhaev, who was kidnapped by the former the mayor of the city of games, kolikhayev, is currently still in the hands of the occupiers, this was precisely due to the fact that the occupiers gave him such a peculiar ultimatum, because all utility companies had to switch to calculations in rubles from the first day and the renegotiation of contracts, by the way, the two mayors of the city - this is the new peace of kakhovka and kherson - these are the two

mayors who were not yet in illegal detention and who still managed to avoid it in one way or another. eh, and we saw already before the first number that after all, in novaya kakhovka, all utility companies rewrote their contracts and agreed to work in rubles. and this is a frank collaboration. merculikhaye refused this. is there in the area the exploiters are the pre-trial detention center and he is currently there in the illegal detention of the occupiers , because until today he somehow managed to balance everything there and what satisfied the occupiers - this is the vital activity of the city, they needed it so that the city would not sink into collapse

including the garbage collapse, the transport collapse, and by the way, planting flowers, starting fountains, etc., it was all arranged. and let's say, well, it agreed with the occupier, but it became a kind of choice that had to be made. agreed to work according to russian standards, well , he was detained, as of today, he is in the hands of the occupiers. thank you very much for the prompt information for myself, and where there is a lot of kherson regional council, adviser to the head of the kherson regional military administration. thank you very much, mr. serhiy, at the beginning of april, when we canceled the temporary only in lviv nearly 50,000 cars were registered at border crossing points, now for

importing cars from europe, you still have to pay vat and excise duty, why did the government resort to such our journalists figured out the steps, let's see . president volodymyr zelenskyy signed the law on the refund of customs duties and taxes on imports and customs clearance of cars, benefits will be canceled from july 1. lawmakers justify the restoration of taxation by the need to fill the state budget, and also talk about the need to eliminate excessive competitive advantage against products produced domestically under liberalization the verkhovna rada voted on tax legislation for the period of martial law on march 15, after 20 days after the start of the war, the idea seemed to be good, to give an opportunity to buy an inexpensive car to those who lost them during shelling and bombing, as well as to make the cars that volunteers drive to the front more affordable, but to the noise, premium class cars began to be dumped in ukraine, asking for

humanitarian aid. we are very grateful to everyone and our partners for the provision of humanitarian aid, on the other hand, kilometer-long queues are arranged for the import of paid cars with our parts abroad. we definitely understand that this is a certain businesses say that as a result of the cancellation of the customs duty from mid-march, the budget did not receive approximately uah 13 billion during the grace period, in total, more than 119 thousand cars were imported into ukraine on the last day before the ban, only the transcarpathian customs issued and released almost 1,800 vehicles on social networks , they publish photos and videos of roads at the checkpoint on the border with ukraine, queues stretched for dozens of kilometers and people stood under the scorching sun for several days. look what is being done, this is just a gesture of government officials

expect that the refund of the customs duty will allow the budget to be replenished by at least 3.5 billion hryvnias every month , despite the cancellation of customs clearance of cars abroad for some categories of people, they propose to leave benefits, in particular, for vehicles for participants in hostilities, also the people's deputies propose to allow customs-free importation of cars and those who have lost their vehicles because of the war thank you for the story-correspondent serhii babkin serhii vovk the general director of the center of transport strategies should appear now, if he appears, we will be with him let's just talk mr. serhiy good afternoon i can hear you well i can't see you fine fine mr. serhiy good health glory to ukraine i have a philosophical and applied question for you see for sure people won't get richer during the war and won't get richer after the war either this means people there will be no money, and

does this mean that people will not have money so that they will not buy, not that expensive cars, even average ones, this means that we will have to somehow satisfy the demand with cheap and tax-free cars that people simply have. they were what they are will you say that sooner or later the government will have to cancel tariffs again, okay, they say that we did not receive 13 billion, they will not receive anything at all after a year, because war is not the acquisition of wealth, it is even what you have that you lose, what would you advise the prime minister it is difficult for me to advise the prime minister, the only thing to tell him is that the price of the question, well, at least according to the latest figures, is even more, that is, what was announced literally a few days ago, that ukrainians imported about 200-36,000 cars during the entire concession period starting from april and thus estimated

a potential loss of the budget of 26 billion uah. but there are actually a number of additional questions, the first question is how many cars actually went to the needs of the citizens, since the cars went to the needs of security , that is, to the needs of the fight against russia, to the need for war, that is, i at least have such statistics she met me. it seems to be a fundamentally important issue. second, we are talking about the loss of the budget , that is, the potential loss from non-payment. but we are not talking about the economic effect, because in fact it is an entire industry when some people were involved in the fact that they imported these cars and there are many of these people, we see these queues of which there are many. that is, it was simply a permanent business, some people worked to repair these cars, because very often they came in in the technical condition that will be needed, so i absolutely i do not rule out that in

some time, when the income level of the population really falls and people will need to buy cars and pay for new cars large sums of money, or at least larger sums than there are today in europe, they will not be able to, the government will have to review this decision of course, here you need to separate what is called jam from something else. in other words, we should not allow a situation when cars costing 3-4 e-e million hryvnias or some luxury class cars are imported under the guise of no customs importation. but again, this is an exclusively question administration, i.e. cut off, simply hold some price, price scissors that will not allow , er, to make any extra income for those people who do not need them, but allow people to bring in people who need it for their own needs, this is a task that i absolutely can not handle therefore, i do not rule out that we will be forced to

return to this decision. please tell me if it is true that the price of cars is now increasing by approximately 30%, namely in ukraine, since import benefits have already been canceled. well, frankly, i do not think that this will happen. because we perfectly understand first of all, a large number of cars have been imported into the country, this is a large number of cars, it will, let's say, be redistributed through three-year sales through other types of redistribution. in addition, we understand that now we have reached the model when it becomes very expensive to own a car. that is, we see how much gasoline costs, we see what problems arise in order to buy it, and this is despite the fact that we do not yet have fiscal pressure on the problem of car ownership, what is in europe and what is in ukraine will also be conditional in other words, the older the car , the more ecologically dirty your car is, and who pays the more heat tax if you consider that we imported

mostly inexpensive cars, and many of them are once again in less than perfect technical condition. i think that a lot of ukrainians will think about whether do they need a car at all, or if needed , in what quantity, that is, two or three cars each, as we now have very often, everyone in the family will not have this , so i think that it is precisely economic factors . they will put everything in its place, although if not thank you very much, let's talk about the transport visa-free , it's very important, it's possible, very briefly, right, i understand from your words, from my thoughts, that prices will not increase, people will not have money to buy for 20,000, people will be chasing a car for 10,000, correct i understand that what do you think? i think that this is exactly the case, that is, the main factor that affects the car market is the level of income of the population. i do not see the prospects that it

will increase, i see the prospects that the costs of maintaining a car will increase. will not grow, on the contrary, people will be possible. let's say it's possible to filter your needs in cars, and now about the transport visa-free, it's very important. i absolutely agree with angelica, who raised this issue. let's remind you what happened on june 29. after a year of negotiations, ukraine signed a transport visa-free program with the european union, now the bureaucratic procedures associated with obtaining permits for the transportation of goods are disappearing, and the permits themselves, which had to be obtained from european states for a year, also for ordinary ukrainians , and a certain bonus, the right to drive vehicles in the european union and p sergey, we are mostly concerned about whether this visa-free transport solves the problems of the logistics business well, first of all,

it is if it is so easy to talk with victory indeed, this is probably a victory, but let’s talk about fact number one, which for some reason does not say . this agreement is valid for only one year. that is, it is not an open-ended agreement, that is, after a year we can once again return to the very unfavorable for ukraine in the first the turn of the practice of driving cars outside of ukraine through permits, that is, the question is, how do we use this and whether we can make it let’s say content and use it further, this is question number one question number two unfortunately, really, a big plus in because we moved away from the practice of permits, because i believe it was discrimination against ukrainian business and the facts. well, i will say that correctly, not very honest lobbying on the part of european carriers, in particular from poland and other countries, when they simply very often pressed domestic carriers on these issues, but other issues they have not gone anywhere, the

first question is the question of the readiness of the border infrastructure to increase transportation by road, that is, in independence, regardless of whether there is a visa-free transport or there are no queues at the border today, we are sure the professionals can repeat it, but it can be corrected . i apologize, but it is about five days for departure and about three days for entry. that is, it is, in the conditions, absolutely not adapted to that because very often, the infrastructure simply cannot pass as much transport as is needed to service ukrainian expert import operations. question number two is, er, bureaucratic procedures, in fact, no one has simplified them, and very often it is bureaucracy, that is, customs and other business spends leva on cargo clearance a fraction of the time that they stand in all the traffic jams , that is why we are currently talking about the so-called electronic declaration, that is, there is a ttn. that is, it is the

permit document that will simplify the administration and practical registration. duty-free e-e or customs visa-free, let's say let's call it that, although again this is a very conditional interpretation, that is, the joining of ukraine to the system of control over the customs movement of goods which will allow us to simplify this procedure even more, so the fact that we moved away from permits is a big plus, but this is only the first step, we need to take at least two or three more steps to really improve the situation with the export and import of goods and what is important to make this visa- free visa permanent and not just for one year, mr. serhii listen, you understand what kind of money we are talking about when you say that it is simply not physically

possible to make more crossings at the border, then the question arises, is it beneficial for everyone? profitably to ukrainians, businessmen, to ordinary ukrainians who see that the e-e trade turnover with europe is growing, we can afford a lot. what can we afford? more goods means the price is lower and so on and so on. there are seven crossings, are there already existing crossings, they are just roads, two times three times more crossings than all ? it seems to me that this game is worth candles, the question is why is this not done? i remember the beginning of the 90s, when poland was leaving the soviet union. i asked a how could you make it so that you didn't have a problem with oil and gasoline? and they say that we had a lot of transitions from the german democratic republic, and the

ugdr had a lot of transitions from france. people bought for themselves bought these huge cars and brought them, you and i could buy, go to holland, load and bring gasoline to poland, sell, make money for everyone's benefit. and we have been talking about this since 1991, when a large the number of transitions so that you can freely so when you told me five i had a question how many days on average when 5 days i am not interested in five days this is considered to be eternity for trade this is war as and if it is a fish and if it is something like that fresh, if ours pass, sell it. we say there are crops, the crop is there, but we cannot sell it. if it has been with you for three days, you have one minute. i apologize that i took a lot of time. look, if it is one minute, then the main one is

eaten in part. in fact, we have so much road transport on the borders. was never and now all the factors that are objective, that is, we need to bring in a lot of fuel for import, we need to export our agricultural products and other products for export, these are the factors that allow us to speed up as much as possible, at least the same development of transport communications at the borders of the terminals checkpoints and the like have really been reduced a lot and that's why there were objective reasons when it takes more than one minute or one hour, but now there is an opportunity for us to go through that path in a few months which hands have been passed through me before this, i sincerely hope that under the pressure, including business, this path will be completed will be completed as quickly as possible as efficiently as possible, well, mr. serhiy, i want you thank you we must finish, the general director of the center of transport strategies was with us , he told us
