are people ready for mandatory evacuation, how do they react to the government's decision, and will they listen to us this time on the phone serhiy horbatenko from kramatorsk serhiy my greetings, are donetsk people ready to leave for evacuation. of course, if not, the government will take a receipt, how will they react to it locals i congratulate myself, first of all i want to note that today in kramatorsk and slavyansk, for the first time in a whole day, an air-raid alarm signal is heard, before that it was relatively quiet, and as for the evacuation, at first there was a very lively discussion, because well maybe people got a bit confused, maybe they didn't explain it very well at first, everyone thought that the evacuation would be

forced, that's why there were a lot of comments like that we are being evicted, then our houses will be demolished . not to leave, but you have to sign a piece of paper stating that the person takes responsibility for possible consequences, of course there have been fewer comments. but judging by what people write about, what they talk about on the streets, what they talk about with me, i want to say that there are not many people who want to leave here , but if you look at the official figures from your e-e, then at least today the contents of kostyantynivka and kramatorsk were free evacuation all the way to germany, and only 50 people took advantage of this opportunity. that is, it is very, very there are also few people, some can not understand why they need to leave

, let's say from kramatorsk or sloviansk, even if there is no heating, they say we live in private houses, we have stoves, we have coal or firewood, and even if it is a cold winter here, it will not there will be electricity, there will be cold batteries, then, in principle, people say that they will be able to provide their tags with heat, but for some reason no one pays attention to the fact that if a rocket flies into this house, then no one will need this heat in the end, also according to official information, more than two hundred thousand people should leave people and 50,000 people, but according to my observations, there are many children on the streets, children aged from zero to 5, 10, 12 years old. and i see that the parents are actually in no hurry to leave with them. well, maybe because there are very few official explanations let's suppose today, only on local television from pokrovsk, i watched a story about the

evacuation, and the residents of pokrovsk say that they do not want to go, but the officials explain that the evacuation is free, the road is free, the accommodation is free, and people are given one-time assistance in the amount of uah 2 to 3,000, as well as the same amount of assistance from uah 2 to 3,000 will be provided every month, that is, it is worth telling people that they will not just be taken somewhere and thrown somewhere in the field, that people will be settled, people will be fed they will give financial aid, but if yes, thank you serhii, i just hear you have an air alarm, that's why i'm closing, thank you very much for getting in touch. well , now serhiy horbatenko from kramatorsk is going to shelter live. today, the first ship with ukrainian food left the port of odesa, another 16 ships are already waiting for their turn , minister of infrastructure oleksandr kubrakov reported about this - these are the ships that were blocked

at the beginning of the full-scale invasion of russia, mykhailo shtekel, correspondent of radio svoboda, works in odesa he is in touch with us, mykhailo. my congratulations, tell us what the situation is like in odessa. well, how did the departure of this first ship with ukrainian grain under the istanbul agreements take place today? how did everything go ? of corn, 26,000 tons of corn on board this rezoni vessel under the flag of leon, we learned this morning from the statement of the ministry of defense of turkey , according to my information, preparations had been made for several days, the departure of this vessel was being prepared on july 29, arriving president zelenskyi and minister kubrakov to odesa. they visited ford chornomorsk together with the ambassadors of the g7 countries, and there was a report that the first test vessel will leave this morning

. no, first one ship will pass the route agreed upon in the framework of the grain agreement to reach istanbul, after that it will go to the port in a vessel that will set out to deliver grain and corn from the warehouses odesa chornomorsk and pivdenny a-a where the unblocking of the ports is now very important became very important because literally on the first of july the mouth of the rapid on the danube was closed again, which was opened after the liberation of the snake island , but now it is closed again due to the fact that two vessels were damaged by emin or unknown explosive devices, one ship was jammed, another was damaged. therefore, it is now very important for business to give an opportunity to export grain from ukrainian to

black sea ports, so far market participants have not they actively comment or do not comment at all on what is happening, well, wishing that the caravan was formed and reached the port of destination and only after that it is possible to comment openly talk about any other forecasts and further ones because so far this route has not been worked out with a point from the point of view of security, the grain agreement was signed on july 22 between ukraine and turkey, on the one hand, and turkey, on the other hand , also signed an agreement with russia at the un, according to this agreement, there is still a possibility to send grain carriers from the ports of odessa, the black sea , so southern the next day after the signing of this agreement, a missile roof was applied to the port of odessa. but despite that, the preparation was continued, and now we see that the first test vessel has arrived. thank you very much, mykhailo mykhailo shtekel from odessa, he

followed because today the sport left the first ship with ukrainian food. well, the owner of the largest grain trading company nibulon, oleksiy vadatursky, died during the shelling of mykolaiv on the night of july 31, together with his wife raisa a russian missile hit the house where the couple was staying, adviser to the head of the presidential office mykhailo podolyak suggested that the death of vada turskyi was not accidental to the list of the richest ukrainians , he is the founder and owner of one of the largest agricultural companies in ukraine, nibulon, which has been producing , storing, processing and exporting agricultural products for over 30 years the company also became the largest exporter in

the state nibulon has its own cargo fleet as well as a private sea terminal with a berth in mykolaiv bada-tursky was 74 years old, in fact, having a respectable age, he could have left the country to a safe place but remained in mykolaiv until the end. we express our condolences to our family friends in connection with the death of oleksiy vadaursky and also the relatives and all the victims of this war well , journalist oleg havrysh and economic columnist olezhe are in touch with us. my greetings. good day. i asked. i know that you have repeatedly recorded interviews with vadatorsky and monitored his activities . the largest entrepreneur in the mykolaiv region, uh, in general, if we talk about entrepreneurs there, i will tell them about uh, the dnipro, for example, it can be the wind there, pinchuk

, uh, i think he is even more than kolomoiskyi . boarding school akhmetov, but if we are talking about mykolaiv, it is definitely vydtakivskyi with his nibulon concern , he started working in the early 90s, that is, nibulon, by the way, is deciphered as nikolaev and budapest, london. that is, these are the cities where he supplied grain and he started in general, a person is very simple, he was from the village, he started working as an agriculturist, then, at the beginning, at the end, from the soviet government, he began to look for markets to beat for grain in this, well, the ss succeeded, and that is why he built a successful business until now, that is, it was one of the largest such agricultural companies, but only in addition to the fact that he

talked about grain and in relation to the export of grain among domestic companies . it's chicken meat, but uh, nibulon was actually grain and uh, let's say. he greatly developed the river river clamor, that is, the transportation of grain by the river fleet, he uh, captured a lot of bars for this, tugs, ships , that is, not vessels, that is, uh, if speak correctly and he worked very hard to develop this fleet of all the free ones, he invested in it, even i had and ex, this is the last conversation , he talked about the fact that i don’t have a ross, he drove a skoda superb car, and it’s his well

, in general, i estimated his money at 450 million dollars , that is, half a billion dollars belonged to him, but i drive in the east and said that i will never buy a rolls-royce . transported grain and other agricultural products i understand olezhe, well, in the office of the president, in particular , they are talking about the fact that they killed vedatorskyi and targeted his house, do you share this opinion? no, podolyak told the truth . for the russian authorities, because this is a person , first of all, she helped a lot with money, she helped mykolaiv, she helped the defense of mykolaiv, he didn't go anywhere, he stayed to help on the spot, he did everything

possible so that let's say to unlock this expressive he dreamed up projects there to start producing grain somewhere in africa , and the headquarters does not want to take it anywhere , he wanted this money to go to ukraine and well, he is very it was, well, margarita semenyan, this is such a problematic russian she wrote after he was killed that er this is real denazification because we killed an oligarch who helped er the nazi so to speak worked really for some time in but he no longer worked in the verkhovna rada, and now it cannot be said that he had any influence on the government at all, that is, he was still a successful enterprise, a large enterprise, and one of the richest people in ukraine,

he used to go there in his 10s or 20s. the case when it was impossible to name him, that he was like that, that is, a classic oligarch who has something like that, some faction in the verkhovna rada or some snakes, and it was also reported, at least mykolaiv regional politicians said that he was also going to now to go to turkey in order to also somehow agree on the issue of grain export in war conditions, so he also wanted to unblock the supply from his facilities from the mykolaiv region and so on, that is, first of all, for the russians, he was a man who was, so to speak, of some kind of throat, that is, he was very interfered because, first of all, he did everything possible so that more grain was exported through ukraine in a legal way, and he spent the money he earned for it to maintain ukraine's military capability and

in general, i lost a lot by the fact that you, uh, support mykolaiv, your native place. well, here it is clear that, if i speak honestly, he was so it would be doomed, so to speak, that is, uh, well, in russian, they don’t forgive oleg, thank you very much for your comment oleg havrish, an economic viewer, was on radio freedom. the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine asks ukrainians not to go to the south of serbia , where an armed conflict is not excluded. documents that should be received by citizens of serbia upon entry, as well as due to kosovo's plans to register a car with serbian license plates, what serbia demands, what kosovo wants and what is nato's role in this conflict with details zoryan stepanenko zoryan's words to you congratulations, actually, i will start with the

current situation there are in kosovo, so the checkpoints that were actually closed by the kosovo police the day before , but in principle they are already removing the trucks with which the kosovo serbs blocked the highway takes place under the supervision of nato, and this was a prerequisite for the agreement of the kosovo authorities after consultation with the ambassadors of the united states and the european union for a month to postpone the innovations against which, with the support of belgrade, the ethnic serb population of the north of kosovo is opposed, from today they were to start receiving kosovar passports and corresponding license plates on in cars and they were going to issue temporary passes to serbs going to kosovo, this mirror decision was explained in pristina because serbia has long been denied access to themselves as kosovars and with their national identity cards or does not recognize the independence of kosovo recognized by almost a hundred

un countries about similar measures its authorities announced at the end of june and belgrade reacted only the day before, listen to what the president of serbia said in an extraordinary address, we will ask for peace and seek peace, but immediately i will say that there will be no capitulation and serbia will win if they dare to persecute the serbs treat the serbs badly kill the serbs serbia will win after the speech in a student from kosovo serbs began to erect roadblocks and serbia and kosovo, respectively, pulled troops and police to the common border, deputies from the pro-presidential party of serbia said that his country could begin the denazification of kosovo , that is, the same word was used by putin justifying the full-scale invasion of his army into ukraine , belgrade later made it known that his troops did not

set foot on the territory of kosovo, clarifying exactly those messages that spread in social networks, in particular, but they came to belgrade and exchanged mutual accusations of an aggravated situation in the region, the government of kosovo called on residents to be vigilant the next hours days and weeks can be difficult and problematic we are facing the serbian national chauvinism we know well we will work day and night and together we will manage to maintain law and order in every corner of the country in order to relieve tension, the kosovo authorities, at the insistence of the american ambassador, postponed the introduction of the innovation until september due to similar protests, i will remind you that the decision was already postponed in turkey the european commission has now welcomed this step, and in the kremlin, russia does not recognize the independence of kosovo, i remind you, it declared its support for serbia, the chances that the escalation of the conflict, which was prevented, is now

possible in a month, are minimal, according to our colleagues from the balkan service of radio svoboda online, unlike ukraine, there are troops on the territory of kosovo nato since 1999, so any escalation can be manipulated only due to tension in the air or these blockades, this is the end of the story of an armed conflict will not happen again because in nato has a mandate to protect peace in the entire territory of kosovo, including its northern part. the nato international mission supporting peace in kosovo confirmed at night that it is ready to intervene if there are threats to stability and pristina, and tabelgrad called on them to continue negotiations for the normalization of relations, and the same side was called on by the european commission today in brussels own zoryan thank you very much zoryana stepanenko from brussels, we continue , we continue to discuss the topic of confrontation between

serbia and kosovo with us in connection with the games todorov, professor of the department of international studies and public communications of the uzhhorod national university, we are greetings to you. good afternoon, i would like to start with a very simple question for our viewers. otto, serbia does not recognize the independence of kosovo . most of the eu countries recognize kosovo and the united states of america recognize kosovo, but for example russia and china do not recognize it and ukraine does not recognize it, you can very simply explain and why the question of kosovo ukraine found itself in the company of russia and china, and not with the western world. well, i was not very categorical about why ukraine together with russia and china

, in fact, and the five countries of the european union also do not recognize the independence of kosovo, it does not have a political recognition and there are certain reasons for that, let's say...ukraine was based on the fact that there is a resolution of the un general assembly on the territorial integrity of serbia back in the 90s. where it was said that kosovo is a part of serbia, we supported georgia in the same way without recognizing... passions of russians in the form of abkhazia and the southern session , that is, there is a certain sequence, well, let's say, it does not recognize uh among the countries of the european union, kosovo, spain, which also has certain problems with catalonia, that is, uh, uh, uh, it's not terrible, and in fact, uh, in

the kosovar authorities understand the position of ukraine in the same way as the position of some countries of the european union. i would not make a huge problem out of this. i understand you. look , i was also convinced that the situation on the border of serbia did not explode by itself, but here if it is good to look for whether it is possible to find the hand of the kremlin there, as is often said in our country, please evaluate this thesis to what extent it is likely. well, i think that definitely there are certain influences of the russian federation aimed at diverting the attention of the world from ukraine, but i would say that such efforts, they are probably such, they fall on very good ground, the serbian church's attitude towards

kosovo is kind of existential, that is, it was there in 1389 that it was defeated on the kosovo field er serbian army by the turks and for the serbs this very stupid, don't remember until now, i will remind you that the war criminal justified the genocide of seryebnyi with a string of latvians - this is exactly revenge for the defeat in kosovo in 1389, that is, some kind of delusion, but this is such a reality, moreover, in russia and in serbia very influential russian media, in fact, their narratives about the war in ukraine,

about russian aggression. they are very popular in serbia, and that's why now there has been such a wave of serbian nationalism about the fact that e crimea russia alaska russia is all russia, but kosoval went to serbia, well, this is such a reality, but, but, i think that the fact that they were suspended for at least a month is the reason for the aggravation. kosovo gives certain er well, if not stable guarantees, then stable hopes that russia will not be able to er unravel the situation here because it will er again threaten a direct

er conflict with the north atlantic alliance present in kosovo just suddenly someone well didn't know or missed it collegiate mission kayphora it it is a nato mission, and by the way, it has a mandate from the security council of the united nations. that is, it is not a purely nato mission, it performs the tasks assigned to it by the security council. it turns out that russia is also its month. - this is precisely to preserve peace in kosovo. therefore, war is unlikely in the balkans. i understood correctly. i hope so, but uh, in this political sense, uh, the disintegration will continue. er,

they will do, but still what serbia has the status of a candidate for the european union , i think, in the end, it will stop the hot heads in the serbian government, but the kremlin immediately reacted to the events in serbia and kosovo a few hours after these riots. for example, the press attaché of the ministry of foreign affairs, maria zakharova, she already means the decision of the authorities, and she takes the authorities in quotation marks, the rules are discriminatory against the serbs. well, they say they are monitoring the situation there , and i want to ask you something, maybe i will say cynically, but the balkans are still closer to brussels, and if something in the balkans flares up there, there is a high probability that it will divert the attention

of the west from ukraine. i hope that it will not flare up first. that is not a distraction, so that nothing can distract attention from ukraine, because, well, we have a very serious situation, a real war. well, what about zakharova's statements, as they once said in ordinary things, they are not very new there is nothing new about the twisting, let's say the steps that were going to be taken introduce in lada kosovo, they are essentially mirrors because what the serbian government is doing and there have been no problems with this until now. that is why i think that

this conflict will still be able to be equipped here, especially since you are right international influence on kosovo well, by and large, the creation of this state in 2008 became possible precisely thanks to the support of the west, and then they will also carefully monitor the fact that escalation is not allowed . sunset finally is gradually coming to fruition and, nevertheless, i hope that it will continue to support ukraine, moreover , to strengthen that support. at the same time, we have to hear very often recently that the

west's attention to ukraine is decreasing. you are following the processes. you are here . what can you say? er, that's also what we just mentioned, that the hand of moscow, that is, er, if we point to specific things about er, the supply of weapons, er, it continues today, and today there are new reports that er, new missile complexes, er, artillery complexes have passed, that britain is even going to hand over ships, that is. but really, in the media of the west, from time to time there are narratives that are attached or initiated precisely by moscow regarding the fact that it is not worth losing the money of the taxpayers of western countries all the same, ukraine

will be defeated by russia and winter is ahead, that is, in fact, the situation is really very difficult, but uh, objectively, still, i uh, i hope that there will be uh, uh, that there will be uh, uh, that there will be uh, uh, that there will be uh, uh, that there will not be uh, uh, that there will be uh, uh, that there will not be uh, uh, that there will be uh, uh, that there will be no uh, uh, increase of uh, uh, aid to ukraine because it er means that they uh, they help uh, not so much ukraine as themselves, thank you very much for joining the broadcast igor todorov, professor of the department of international studies and public communications of the uzhhorod national university, i traditionally encourage you to subscribe to the pages of radio svoboda in social networks instagram telegram twitter facebook and also viber and two channels on youtube, radio svoboda and radio svoboda ukraine until tomorrow greetings
