uhu, when the guys who are there in kharkiv in kyiv, they ca n't contact their friends to find out where the other friend is because he doesn't answer, and that's how my friend 's brother died . how to even find out what happened to him, and then through the drone they found how to look. well, this is how it happened, how hard it was for them and how long they fought every piece of that mariupol. that is, it was there for several days. what is not written there, maybe more, maybe less. i i remember such a big break that he i didn't write, and when he wrote, the whole house must have felt it, and i write to him that the whole house will hear. he says what we say. you know how a small child is given a gift and she writes with joy . he says, and i give you a gift, as i thought . until the end, he said that your gift would come to me in two weeks . it was my birthday, and i don't know how it happened, but they were already in captivity, but

i received a gift and a note from him. when we meet, i will hug and kiss you tightly cheek and this confidence when we meet when i'm next to him that's always what he wrote to me during those three months of hell well, how can you not love there after that, how can you not believe in our boys after that well, it's just that, it's just some incredible fantasy but this fantasy is not evu, this is our ukraine, this is our ukrainians, this is my husband, it’s just, well, it’s very cool that we have such guys, on may 19, he wrote with a heavy heart, after that he still didn’t answer, and everything about the negotiations, so what’s the matter with what will happen? nobody did not know anyone they are not they said that if you consider all the posts of history like that, everything they wrote, then you could understand

that you, some of the leading people there, were preparing for it. they wrote that it is always difficult to do some exhibitions and actions there, and even if it is something bad for you, it does not mean that this is bad for the military. that is, it was possible to understand a little, but who thought about it, and it was a long time, and there were talks about it just on one day, when on the 19th, he wrote something difficult, and another guy there, alvarez , he published a story for that that i found mine i'll leave the phone someday, but i'll come back at the end. i 'll definitely come back, never come back for two months, and even the guys who got out of captivity and don't know, didn't hear, well, they were all separated, they were divided, well, after all, there were a lot of people and specially they were divided in order to have some kind of demoralized character, that is, that you yourself are not around anyone. i think because they died there, and in

russia, what kind of actions do they have ? they beat us there and the like psychological pressure. they think that they can also be beaten somehow by this, but, after all, the guys are not really the guys, they are afraid of them, even somehow regarding the lists that you will see a complete list of everyone who is there, there is no such thing either. well, there is simply information from our parties, but to be confirmed from the other side of course not yes, of course, the association of the family with the circumstance, of course, water talks with this are met, that is, when there is such an opportunity, of course, they call there, er, they set meetings, they ask something else, maybe a-a well, of course, in relation to some advice or anything else well, of course, the government will not consult with the family there about this, because it is, well, something different, but we are just, well, just waiting, because the government is doing, and we are

an exception, ukrainian flags and symbols are sold out on the streets at ukrainian cultural events , days of ukrainian cinema and books by modern ukrainian authors translated into hebrew in bookstores about the boom ukrainian culture in israel next july 2022 tel-aviv israel at the sixth international festival of ukrainian culture ethnic village apple has nowhere to fall and can be very sensual when all these people, everyone who is here now for a moment, we will say that we remember and we are hurt by what is happening in ukraine now, according to the estimates of the organizers of this year's ethno gathered more than a hundred volunteers and about three thousand visitors who are not indifferent to ukraine, meanwhile, in the cinema of the nearby in the city of holon, the days of ukrainian cinema continue, the audience gathers to watch the

historical drama povodyr with hebrew subtitles, when we did screenings in the film club, many people came out and said, well, it's cool, we didn't know what it was then this film club went beyond the scope of this cultural center that exists at the embassy of ukraine in israel . i offered eight films. i thought they would take one documentary and one feature film, a maximum of two took five, and they themselves said that we were surprised. the screening of several more films is ahead. svetlana hopes that this project will be successful and ukrainian cinema will be sold in cinemas all over the country. the couple asaf and natalya have no less plans. the couple set out to introduce israeli readers to modern ukrainian literature. the books moskoviad by yury andruhovych and the tanko of death by yury

vinnychuk can already be found on the shelves of israeli bookstores thanks to their publishing project. that the book market in hebrew is very open and we read books from japan norway iceland not just american commercial fiction or something like that we read from all over the world and still didn't have anything from ukrainian prose, we had translations of poetry here and there in magazines, but not a single ukrainian novel, this impressed me and i decided that if no one is going to do it, then i will make one ukrainian book in hebrew a year like this the couple set the bar for themselves, but i wanted more. they are currently working on the third book by oksana zabuzhko, and they are looking for sponsors in parallel, because the request for ukrainian is affirming. and because of the war, i am as tall as ever. to be honest, there was nothing like it that promoted ukrainian in this way.

isolation, individuality, ukraine, another country, ukrainian, another language - ukrainians, other people , there was no interest in their events. feeling that the organizers of gatherings of ukrainians in israel, we have been holding gatherings in israel for almost two years now. every meeting in our place was held for certain holidays of ukrainian traditions, many master classes were held, we read books together. each time more and more people came, but at the beginning of the war there was actually a great interest in those events and already 200 people are coming that is, in fact, there are a lot of them, and at the last dybanks they were even forced to close registration a few days before the start of the project, which is completely volunteer and ukrainian-speaking from the very beginning . it is especially pleasing that the number of people willing to join the organization is also increasing. indeed, the war in ukraine has become such a peculiar catalyst

for many cultural principles of israel. and he grew up . let's say that's how people's interest in the history of our country, in tradition, in culture was decided by the organizers of ukrainian events in israel. it is more important than ever to develop interest in ukrainian culture abroad and from israel . be sure to like our channels on social networks on youtube , telegram, instagram, twitter joint broadcast with the atp channel, radio svoboda

broadcast on espresso maria gurska andriy saichuk work for you this is our last hour before noon uh when does the daytime broadcast start now despite the fact that we supposedly talked about so much but the hottest ones remained precisely for this hour, and we will join our guests in a moment, i will just say that in the previous part, in the previous hour, we ended the conversation with the topic of the actual european integration of ukraine and what expectations, what are the requirements of the european union for ukraine, what is our homework, how effectively do we cope with it, how much do we demonstrate political will not only regarding obtaining the status of a candidate for eu membership, but also regarding

consistently step by step commenting on everything that is expected of us in order to become a country, a transparent, effective democratic country, a progressive democracy, now we will also talk about it because of the problematic aspects. the opinion that when russia realizes that it cannot press ukraine, then it will sit down at the negotiating table about this, the delfy portal reported and it will happen, says the head of the diplomatic department of latvia, it depends on three factors, the success of this depends on how well the ukrainians are able to fight are able to fight against the speed of economic sanctions, they are also being implemented quite intensively, the seventh eighth package is on the way and the only support for the measure is also very important according to rymkevych - what do you think

, andriy, what does this support of the west depend on of the countries of ukraine, it depends on, in particular, on i think two factors are the presence of elites, now they are all there and the support, which is no less important, possibly and more important, after all, of the voters of these countries. well, two points . the russian empire is using now in the war against the west, primarily because fighting in ukraine, they are fighting a hybrid war with the west , using as a weapon the actual er and information, because the farms are there for that, the beauty or how there is already 10 million dollars, the state department has nominated a broadcaster or one of the organizers of those botfarms as its head, this is actually a huge resource, as well as collecting it, as well as food and energy sources

, everything turns russia into a weapon and is one of the reasons that it consumes everything on weapons, because its military power is already very insignificant, and by the way, sometimes they say that maybe after all, we should reject all these bellicose little positions that say, let the ukrainians fight, and don't give them weapons so much, so as not to provoke the opposite, nato should with one blow, in fact, to teach a long time ago with all these imperial last convulsions of the russian empire and everything with it a powerful blow , after all, the support of the west depends on two factors, this is how the powerful armed forces of ukraine hit the enemy and they hit powerfully and from our internal transformations from the extent to which we, in principle, demonstrate readiness at least to implement them and uh, in small steps, so uh, to implement them even in wartime, and

at least we are asked about it, we are watched, we are demanded of us here many we make movements but are they really effective and sincere, this is the main question, what will we deal with now, and it is already on the call of the first guest of this hour, hanna hopko, people's deputy of ukraine of the eighth convocation, head of the verkhovna rada committee on foreign affairs 2014-19, congratulations, ms. hanna, i also congratulate you, i think that you have heard the last few uh-uh theses of our broadcast and you, by the way , also constantly pay attention to this, you constantly advocate traveling as a diplomat to the united states of america to countries in order to talk about support for ukraine in order to emphasize the fact that today the future of europe depends on how effectively ukraine will be able to fight the enemy once and for all to put an end

to russian aggression in our country, and here we definitely need the friendly hand of the collective west, what do you do you think about only here ukraine itself is doing well, is it consistent, and have we fulfilled all ties with the aggressor country, especially in the most sensitive areas, finances , diplomacy and others, please well, actually, let's to say frankly that the sanctions that both the national security council and the verkhovna rada called for regarding the russian oligarchs and their property in ukraine were to remove the influence , i still do not see any real steps and how the last appointment of the prosecutor general took place. here is the new member of the constitutional court in violation of the constitution of ukraine and the law that states that

they should not be politically engaged. this obviously raises many questions that in reality, e declarations e to change the country during a full-scale invasion remain only e with certain such declarations, at least there were a lot of such positive comments yesterday that a sap manager was finally appointed who won the competition a long time ago. well, i wish that the manager himself had been appointed a few months ago and we did not see this disgrace at all which we were forced to listen to from our western partners during advocacy in order to obtain candidate status, so the question is whether we really want to adopt important reforms in the interests of the citizens of ukraine, and not because the western partners very harshly in phone conversations er

say that if you don't do what you promised, it's obvious to jeopardize the provision of financial assistance therefore, it's obvious that we need to draw conclusions and er even now if we analyze these seven obligations er and there is a very there are many questions, even the law about freedom of speech or about the media, but there we did not see transparency and readiness to include experts from the authorities. oksana romanyuk, the director of the institute of mass information, said that she received a text of 300 pages that are needed analyze to give a comment. that is, it obviously contradicts the democratic principle. well, i still have a question as a person who, in the eighth convocation with many other people's deputies, did we deal with the ban on russian propaganda of the symbolism of the strengthening of the ukrainian language, or now since in

this prepared draft law on the media, we will not see that all these positive changes will not be suspended or again we will not see battles in the verkhovna rada, a similar story with the preparation of the law on national minorities appeared there for some reason you know, this is a surrogate term for national communities, it also contradicts the constitution of ukraine because there is no national community and international law in my clearly national my nordies are national minorities and why are the best specialists not involved in the development of legislative initiatives for this road map because we actually having obtained the status of a candidate, we are already moving to membership. and this is a matter of consideration, we need to develop this road map, how we will move, how we will be able to have access to financial resources, those that we already have

they opened up to us and moldova from the moment of receiving the candidate status, and for that there will also be a certain competition , we need to have a vision even then on the way to the status, not the status, but already to the membership, so the appeals of the expert community are very simple - this is, after all, greater transparency on the part of the government in attracting specialists, considering that the institutional capacity to respond to all challenges is very low and only synergy is the way to build a way to defend national interests, and we saw this as an example of how we were able to achieve of this historic decision to get candidate status. although you remember how we were promised a hybrid option, a potential candidate or candidate status , all kinds of wording that definitely did not correspond to our interests and even the european union's procedures, i don't know you, i

'm very skeptical seriously, i was very skeptical about the readiness and ability of ukraine, and i mean now by ukraine the ukrainian government itself, the current ukrainian government in order to bring ukraine as close as possible to the terms of joining the european union, i explain why. that is, the processes that we are currently observing from this law are really about the media, which was terribly criticized . the creation of another mega state channel of the russian language in order to europeanize and ukrainize the russians, i am simple, and on the one hand, and on the other hand, this is when we see more and more strengthening of informal ties in the government of president zelenskyi i

am not now i am not in the government of president zelenskyi because there is no government that there is no coalition or let it be a government of the majority but there is no parliamentary one and there is no parliamentary control there is no public control, and the main problem is that these people are not accountable, they are not accountable, the fair is not accountable to anyone except president zelensky, on the contrary, there are a lot of people who are accountable to the fair, for example yes i don't fully understand, because reporting it is through informal channels and this is the biggest problem that democracy does not work like that. i have a feeling that we are moving now quietly and quietly, as the muscovites say, during the war, in some very opposite direction. now let's listen carefully to whom in particular regarding the law on media. meanwhile, i just want to emphasize that we have a significant number of extremely positive developments, and that is why it seems to me that, after all, europeans appreciate the efforts of ukraine in its

european integration aspirations. there is, of course, criticism. we talk about it, but there are also positive steps that are quite groundbreaking, such as the completion of the ratification of the istanbul convention, which was actually our homework, and since the signing of the association agreement with the eu, the istanbul convention has now been ratified. actually, this is extremely important against the family violence and it is obvious that these efforts of ukraine cannot but be placed in europe, however, mrs. hanna, if we are talking about these moments where we are underperforming where we still need political will in order to abandon double standards, which we can talk about here, the risks if well, let's start with the same law on the media, which was really criticized in the european union, and in

the european federation of journalists, they called for it to be adopted into law, which corresponds to the standards of the european union at the beginning of july, the president of the european commission was called to the village of the rylyan fund, which risks do we have here, because the ministry of culture, information policy says that the law is extremely important uh now uh during the war because it gives us additional tools to fight against russian propaganda with russian hybrid aggression but still what is important what is important not to forget ms. well let's be honest that really passing the media law because it is about freedom of speech and this is about citizens' access to everything
