god forbid, god forbid, yaroslav, i, by the way, we can show this excerpt of vyacheslav chornovol's speech, they tell me, so i will ask you now to bring out this speech itself, uh, listen to him sober, and you can look at it in perspective from the 90s let's listen. on july 16, 1990, vyacheslav chornovil, by 355 to four, got one freedom for his country and a lot of people gave their lives on the way. and today, when we stop here, together we must remember that the state independence of ukraine must be defended. for

protect her in every citizen of ukraine. these are the very relevant words of bohdan gorenya, not vyacheslav chornovol, but bohdan gorenya, but also a good performance then on the square on the maidan of the october revolution, and by the way, let our viewers remember that oles shevchenko, our colleague at the time, was the first to speak people's deputy and he proposed in connection with this event that took place to rename the square er maidan of the october revolution to maidan nezalezhnosti father's proposal was heard just on maidan er july 16th at this evening what are you

look now, you see, i told you. well, in fact , i didn’t even see it. because the camera is hidden from us , what we are showing is what we are showing at this moment, and we apologize. in fact, they showed us . chornovola was not far behind. i will then briefly ask what is ulyana. maybe you have a question. i am here to take it away. yes, we have very little time left, actually i wanted to ask, er, about me at one time, it was very apt, and your metaphor, yaroslav, about the fact that ukraine, after the declaration of independence, raised two flags at the same time over the verkhovna rada for about 10 days until the beginning. it was in september of the 91st year and i raised two blue-yellow flags over the verkhovna rada at once about the soviet couple, that is, the soviet ukrainian ssr and the newly independent ukraine, and you said then that somehow ukraine lived at once at the same time being both the soviet and ukrainian future and the

restored republic of the ukrainian people's republic and at the same time being the remnant of the soviet union. in your opinion, does it change today uh-uh, you know it's really such an impromptu thing with me, you know because every state that came out of the former colonies, for example, from the british er empire of a huge state, that is india, other er countries, er, they solemnly lowered the flag of the metropolis and raised their national flag, and here it was like this, this event took place on the fourth of september 91- th year, on the second day of the start of the autumn session of the verkhovna rada of the first convocation, and

then i was scrambling to capture this solemn moment when the flag of soviet ukraine was lowered and a national flag was raised. i ran from the session hall to the kyiv hotel to my 13th floor from there. i could see perfectly, so to speak, how the workers there had been struggling for a long time, and finally the blue-yellow flag was raised, and when the wind had already unfurled this flag, i saw that behind it, just like a canapé, you know, like a soviet sandwich the same flag of soviet ukraine, and it occurred to me that later, when i was looking at these frames, ukraine has a hard time saying goodbye to its colonial past, and it is so little

soviet, a little like a national state so to speak, there are some elements, that is, the way to completely break away from the soviet umbilical cord once and for all. i am convinced that this very process is going on now because the value today of the anthem and the ukrainian flag and the coat of arms of ukraine is the trident of volodymyr well , we all er, we feel how much the value of those attributes of the er state is today, um , er, today, every citizen of ukraine feels what it is. on the fourth, fifth, and sixth convocations, he talked

about that historic day on july 16. well, in the meantime, we are moving forward, gentlemen, and we will have more gas corruptor dmytro firtash in may, he lost the monopoly, but the problems of millions of ordinary consumers have increased due to an improper information company, a large proportion of households throughout the country had no idea that they were connected to naftogaz, and therefore conscientiously paid for the used resource in may to the structures of firtash gasbuts, so we are forced to puzzle over how to return the paid funds details in the story of our correspondents ms. nataliya, a lviv woman, a pensioner who takes care of her son with a disability on her own, a poor woman, her pension is a little more than uah 2,000 per month, and for communal

services in may, she will now have to pay twice a month via the internet wi-fi was transferred to my personal account in lvivgaz sales and since we spend the month of may in june, it turns out that in june we paid honestly for the services, what a surprise mrs. nataliya, when another invoice from naftogaz was added to the may bill from lvivgaz for 400 hryvnias, i wanted the money returned to me so that it could be paid by the second supplier organization, and i did not receive a clear answer. the thing is that since may 1 of domestic consumers of lvivgaz sales, the state automatically transferred to the supplier of the last hope, by

the decision of the cabinet of ministers, this function is performed by naftogaz of ukraine, in general, more than 10 million customers switched to naftogaz throughout the country and the state did not conduct a proper information campaign, thousands of subscribers out of habit paid not to the new naftogaz, but to their previous gazbuts, and since may, the sales service has not provided paper invoices, but it does not send electronic invoices to consumers, and they still issue invoices for the month of june, the former minister of of housing and communal services oleksiy kucherenko is convinced that millions of consumers in all regions of ukraine have become hostages of the failed information campaign, now not only returning funds to consumers, but also their subsidies, this is a complete anti-ukrainian adventure, and i undertake

to affirm the position of nak naftogaz is absolutely absolute, it is not the position of the state of ukraine . that the gas companies themselves could take advantage of the situation, at least in lviv, they do not show a particular desire to return overpaid money and arrange a real quest for customers, poor lady natalya, where are the receipts, photocopies of documents, the woman collected everything that the company manager asked for, but it turned out to be not enough. she told me that i need to give me a copy of the certificate of

ownership that i am the owner of that apartment. she received it. she said that she did not want them. according to the woman , the problem was also that the payment for gas was made through the ipay payment system, allegedly lvivgaz sales, which for years accepted money through this provider suddenly stopped recognizing his receipts, is this really the case and did gazbud stop working with ipay ? to present, i.e., payments according to their details. you accept and the payments are valid

, er, i think so that we do not go through, only payments are issued. lvivgaz sales must recognize ipay receipts. but in the case of ms. natalya, this for some reason it didn't happen when i sent her a printout via viber. she said that's why honest lviv utility payers have to go through the 7 circles of hell to get their money back. we asked the director of lvivgazbut, pavlo maika, however, according to him, there are no problems with returning money, any consumer who made an overpayment must can apply to us

, write a statement, provide the necessary package of documents , and within a certain period of time, we will return these funds for the time being. we have returned about a million hryvnias to our customers, the words of the director directly in the company's office were denied by this man, andrii has not been able to return his money for almost six months, he is coming to lviv all the way from vinnytsia again and again without success in february. my wife mistakenly transferred the money not for what was consumed gas transportation in the amount of 10,000 so far, this issue has not been resolved and we have not been credited with the money, if the state does not urgently intervene to solve the problem by the fall, the situation will take on catastrophic proportions, predicts oleksiy kucherenko, the citizens should have known in advance what and to whom to pay. and now they found themselves alone with their problems. everything was done in hindsight, you understand, as i understand it. look, if

the gas company issued a payment without having the right to do so, this is a crime. he is definitely punishable for it. must answer, there will be queues in the offices, it will be a very, very unpleasant period, and the main thing is that i do not know when it will end. i am not sure that it will end before this heating season. of the refund mechanism led to the fact that honest payers of communal services are forced to stand in queues for hours and, in addition to military problems , also solve communal problems, no matter what, and the gas company controlled by dmytro firtash, even after passing to the management of naftogaz , continues to get richer, because the number of consumers to whom refunds will not succeed remains astronomical, millions of ukrainians evacuated abroad simply will not be physically able

to bring their statements to the gas sales office so photocopies of documents fighter vitaliy merinov returned to the ranks of the national guard as soon as a full-scale war began in ukraine, an experienced athlete, a loving father and husband while performing a combat mission in the marines vitaly was wounded, but today he is again preparing to go to the combat zone, talking about the circumstances of his injury, the guard remembers that in the morning it is usual enemy artillery fired a little later, the infantry entered the battle, an intense shooting battle began, during which vitaly received a shrapnel wound from a grenade from under the barrel of a grenade launcher, a long-awaited meeting with family and loved ones is the most important award for every fighter, but they also deserve the highest thanks, because they are fighting for the lives of all ukrainians, join the flash mob, honor the hero, the

petition with the demand to return espresso to the digital air of the fifth channel and direct dialed on the website of the cabinet of ministers, more than 25,000 votes were cast by ukrainians in defense of freedom of speech, now it is the government's turn, do not ignore the opinion of ukrainians, return ukrainian informational tv channels, digital broadcasting is very important in this difficult time to be aware of what is happening, we tell the news and help to understand the events, but the war can make its corrections in the event that the broadcast signal is lost, watch espresso on the satellite now espresso has become available at once on two satellites to viewers who watch our channel on the astra satellite you should reset the tuner to the new parameters, because the old parameters will soon stop broadcasting espresso ukrainian view thank you for watching and

let's talk about the good things, how inspiring the morning coffee is, but what and in black and white there will be a color story about the random joy and inspiration of the moment that and in difficult times there is something to live for, happiness in mushroom beds , life will win that from 4:15 p.m. negotiations on unblocking the export of ukrainian grain between the representatives of ukraine

, russia and turkey and the un delegation agreed on the main technical issues of exporting products from ukraine and an important step was taken in solving the food crisis, let's see what exactly it is about in the story of our correspondents, at the beginning of the week , turkey announced the quick start of the export of ukrainian grain through the black sea. such a statement was made by the minister of defense of the country. we have established very warm relations with mr. putin and mr. zelensky and held very thorough negotiations. kyiv demands firm guarantees that in case of demining the sea approaches to odesa, this will not the russian army will take advantage, that is why the un was involved in the negotiations. turkey, in turn, will become a transitor who will transport ukrainian grain from odessa to neutral waters, but it is not for nothing

that such a service can cost up to 25% of the market value of grain, at least such figures were announced in the turkish media, however, kyiv has no choice in warehouses about 20 million tons of last year's harvest are still stored; the harvest has already begun; there will be no place to store the new grain in the country; foreign exchange earnings are also needed to stabilize the exchange rate, and in addition, ukrainian grain should alleviate the global food crisis , which is already causing a fever in some countries, in particular, the sharp increase in food prices caused mass protests in sri lanka, which led to a change of power, we can see how the influence of this russian aggression is manifested everywhere, it is likely that it affected the situation in sri lanka we are worried about the consequences all over the world, this is only the beginning, because without our food, it will not be possible to stabilize the world market, save the countries of africa and asia from hunger. if there is a famine, then you will see it on the territory

of the european union, new migrants, millions of new migrants since the beginning of the invasion, russia blocks ukrainian ports and makes it impossible to export grain from 25 million tons to date, it was possible to export only five years by rail and road transport, after the deblication of the snake, another route was opened, the danube-black sea canal, however, according to expert assessments, without unblocking the port of odesa, the problem cannot be solved in principle, the western press discussed various options how to do it the most radical way to ensure the protection of commercial courts by the forces of countries nato, in particular, the british fleet, but in the end this option was rejected, fearing a direct conflict between the alliance and russia, and the political and economic aspect - this is the issue that we will discuss today, oleg hnivevskyi, in connection with the center of the kyiv school of economics, an expert on land issues, as well as andriy smoliy

a political expert is in touch with us. good afternoon, mr. oleg. first of all, i have a question for you. and the fact that our grain is partially blocked and partially uh, um, it was occupied by russia together with our territories, what is this it means for ukraine and the world economy that ours is still blocked. this means that the world does not receive the amount of our grain that you need, what kind of it the world needs, this provokes an increase in prices. they have been trading for a long time, they are not getting this grain, this is actually a threat to their food security, a threat of famine, there are numbers, what does it mean that the war in ukraine was provoked by russia, and

tens of millions of lives are threatened by famine there, mainly these countries middle east africa, for our part, this means that our agricultural sector is under threat because we cannot import grain in the amount in which we should import it, this means that we have an excessive supply on the market, there is too much of it in us logistics is four times more expensive now than it was before the war, and in fact this means that farmers, er, agricultural producers, well, they do not receive prices , for example, compared to pre-war times, we now have 30-50% less, although world prices increased twice before the war well, that's not what it is paradoxical, but this is an unfair situation , all because the ports are blocked and, accordingly, the producers, who are very dependent on grain , risk simply going bankrupt

in the fall, because they will not be able to cover their expenses at the price they are currently receiving . and actually the most interesting thing in this story is whether it will be possible to unblock the actual export of ukrainian grain by sea before the end of the war , and it is actually in ostrov, an american journal wrote that there seem to be some participants who have approached negotiations, i will remind you that there were negotiations in istanbul by four parties at once - ukraine, russia , turkey and as a representative of the united nations and that they apparently agreed on some method of transporting this grain, but the participants of the negotiations themselves do not confirm this at the moment , mr. andriyu in your opinion, are there any prospects and why is russia, in principle, on this one? well, thank you for the

question, andrii, and look, in fact, if we are talking about the format that is now, in principle, being worked out like this in istanbul, if we are talking about the participation of turkey in the united nations organization of ukraine and the occupiers in this negotiation process in principle within the framework of this format. more precisely, from one person who sits in the kremlin from vladimir putin no more and no less, that is, in fact, according to the data we have from the two janal and from the turkish mass media and from the city the kingdoms of defense, uh, the states of turkey, there is supposedly some progress, supposedly some draft has been worked out . but as far as i understand, a pause was taken for a week in order to

finally. the decision must be made by vladimir putin, i.e. whether to approve it or not, because we understand very well that as long as you want, you can hold meetings and as much as you want, you can agree on something, but if it is not conventionally speaking from the kremlin tsarka, in essence, instructions to go for it . accordingly, we will not see any results, therefore, of course, in this case, i will always be in favor of the fact that ukraine, we will say, and the whole civilized world did everything to unblock others through the possibility of ukrainian exports, we are also talking about the actual liberation of the black sea water area from the kremlin's influence. so this can also apply to the supply of weapons, that is, if we are talking about long-range artillery, if we in principle, we are talking about efforts to liberate

the waters of the black sea by ukrainian forces, or have you already called such an option. unfortunately, fantastic, i say again. unfortunately, a fantastic option when the actual nato states intervened there, the same royal british navy or the rafts of other nato member states in order to unblock unfortunately, ukrainian exports are fantastic. unfortunately , other countries will not go for it, and we also have to understand that, as of today, so on the one hand, we need to talk like this. we need to talk about something. negotiate with the other side, if we are discussing such a foreign policy aspect, if we are talking , in principle, about the aspects of any negotiations, we must understand that creams will never work in our lives, well , let's assume these things without something. well, for example , you already heard this information yesterday the day before yesterday about the fact

that some small part of the sanctions from russia will be weakened or removed by the united states of america, and in particular, several foreign publications also talked about that about the fact that this is actually well, let's say such a pass from side to side er, the occupiers in order for them to agree to unblock ukrainian ports, that is, you know, the ice is quite thin here, on the one hand, we understand very well what needs to be unblocked, that ukraine is losing, losing simply incredible amounts. i think my colleague here will say much more clearly about it from the other side we must understand that any negotiations, any agreements, they must contain, first of all, the security aspect and the political aspect, if we talk about

the fact that both the political and security aspects are taken into account in favor of ukraine practically 100%. then, of course, the result will be positive for us, if the security and political aspects are to some extent taken into account negatively, then of course this will also have certain negative consequences for our state . it was announced that this meeting was supposed to be a general meeting, that it was supposed to be signed, if it happens again. on some part of the percentage , the aggressor state will say so, it will agree and be sure of it, be sure of it, be sure

that it will happen, i would not talk about it. let's wait and i hope that there will be positive signals, mr. olezhe. in an interview with our colleagues on the 24th channel, they said that if ukraine does not unblock its sea ports, then the agricultural sector can find itself in a significant crisis, and it was about 50% of agricultural producers who could go bankrupt. it threatens, well, it threatens our good sector quite seriously, because what i said myself at the beginning, that because of the blocking of ports, and because of the fact that the growth of logistics is very expensive, and because our sector is so dependent on of sea trade because of grains, there are oil crops because of oils, then domestic prices have fallen very much , and producers do not receive the price

that is on the world market, and in fact, they cannot cover their costs now, especially when it comes to corn. this is a very serious situation therefore, if the situation with the ports will continue as it is now, well, they simply will not be able to recoup their costs and many enterprises there will go bankrupt in the fall, what will be the number, and it is difficult to say whether it will be 50% from 40, well, it is difficult to do about it now, just now, the amount of losses actually suffered by the agrarian sector is very serious, and we , because of that, started a regular review of the losses and losses in the agricultural sector due to the war together with the ministry of good politicians and of food in ukraine so, the unrealized losses, the unrealized indirect losses of the sector now amount to about 20 four billion us dollars , this is about 50% of the entire value or

revenue of the sector, roughly speaking, of last year's 50% , almost this is a very serious figure and such a big blow on the agricultural sector, therefore, i would like to add e-e to the words of my colleague. what about the prospect of opening the ports ? manufacturers to survive and continue to appreciate, but on the other hand, we know the strategic goals of russia . to bleed ukraine, including and they don't allow through to block what i'm going to what if there will be a solution if even
