it is also to be such a pillar of help, because i see on the streets in front of the consulate, the embassy has become a tent, the external offices, uh, with which and problems ukrainians are contacting about living in poland, the embassy goes to the consulate more often, especially when the invasions on a full scale began, a lot of citizens ukrainians came abroad without any documents or with internal passports or birth certificates of children when the borders opened and accepted all ukrainian citizens who were forced to leave due to the fact that the russians bombed their homes, were there no conditions for further residence in those regions temporarily occupied today, therefore, for such citizens, the primary task, the primary question is to get real documents, i.e. a foreign passport, whether to sign

their children's foreign passports, or to make a foreign passport for their children, i.e. in the main issues with which the citizens of ukraine are now addressing the constitution of the institutions are related to passport issues , documents, etc. by various volunteer groups, which are organizations that work in warsaw in different parts of poland, which also in cooperation with us provide consultations on housing assistance on employment, that is, there is a feeling of such a very strong mobilization among diplomats and unity among diplomats, consuls, volunteering organizations, that is, we are all now about united for the sake of not only victory, but for the sake of helping our citizens who are really suffering from what putin is doing with his aggressive policy in relation not only to ukraine, but to the entire democratic civilized world, so that you all unite that

here we are all united. in general, the ukrainian diaspora in poland works very actively. does the embassy at all cooperate with ukrainian events ? as always, we start talking about the diaspora, so i want to draw attention to the fact that here in poland, we are not inclined to call the ukrainian diaspora a diaspora , because autochthonous ukrainians live here. who , in fact, lived on these lands from time immemorial, is an autochthonous ukrainian national minority and a plus citizens of ukraine who came here for the purpose of training, employment, and so on. that is, this is such a unique ukrainian community. that is what we call it the ukrainian community. that is, we are all one

community, one community, and what is happening now is what i see. arrived. this is truly the unity of the ukrainian community and it is very nice to see when representatives of the autochthonous community, i.e. polish citizens of ukrainian origin who live here in poland, unite in joint initiatives from time immemorial and this is a generation of new migrants , citizens of ukraine, who came here for, as i said, employment or study, that is, everyone is united by one goal of helping ukraine, and they do a lot of joint humanitarian aid projects or various activities simply for in order to mobilize polish society even more, there are a lot of organizations here now, and we will work with each of these organizations and we are already working very

effectively. i will meet with them and all of them. another organization, but we are sincerely trying to help ukraine in this situation within our capabilities, so i will always gladly find time to meet with them, shake his hand and say thank you, and just ukrainian community ukrainian community to say and in general, as a trend can be observed now, more and more ukrainians are coming to poland or vice versa, they are gradually leaving my home, we observe a fairly significant number of ukrainian citizens who have already returned or want to return to ukraine, we do not hide this fact

among the ukrainians who arrived here after february 24, the desire and dream to return home sooner or later and start rebuilding their homes there prevails. it is nice that even their future, the future of their children. they associate it with ukraine. it is a huge asset of the ukrainian people the fact that we connect our future with the future of our state and believe that after the war this state will be even more beautiful than it is now and it will be even more successful successful that it will already be a new european country that will also be a member of the european union and a member of nato, and it will be a country that is really respected in the world, which will strengthen its subjectivity to such an extent that it was not even dreamed of in past generations. i am sure that it will be so. and we encourage the citizens of ukraine to return there will only be such an opportunity.

come back together, we must rebuild our country. a recently created group is killing an open border in order to increase capacity on the ukrainian -polish border. the infrastructure was affected catastrophically, the russians bombed a lot of logistical routes or opportunities, they blocked the ports, and due to these new circumstances, the load on the road checkpoints on the ukrainian -polish state border actually increased. pass, well, of

course, huge queues are created, especially from trucks er, dissatisfaction of carriers is growing, but here i would especially like er, a special emphasis emphasize that this dissatisfaction must be directed first of all at the one who is the root cause of this situation. that is, it is putin and the russian federation, which with its war and its aggression against ukraine actually put all of us in very difficult conditions, on the other hand, we we see a huge political will on the part of the polish government and on the part of the ukrainian government in order to unload these launch points, very quick operational decisions are made and which concern the liberalization of control functions mainly if it concerns the transport of grain crops or fuel, lubricants, those strategic things that we especially need now, we are trying

to do everything to increase the cargo capacity of the checkpoints, some of the checkpoints are now exclusively intended for the maintenance of cargo transport , the construction of which is underway krakowiec korchova is where it was finally possible to separate the two lanes of freight traffic and passenger transport. the possibility of creating new checkpoints is also being discussed . a separate working group has been created in our government, which called an open border, the task of this group is not only the construction of direct checkpoints, but also access roads, that is , the entire border infrastructure will be built, let's not forget that this is all happening in war conditions, in conditions of limited financial resources, limited budget expenditures , but the work is going on and the work is going well enough effectively and we

hope that we will be able to quickly relieve these checkpoints as much as possible so that our drivers and carriers feel better, but the problem is known to us and we are on top of it we work, works like the polish government, the ukrainian government, we also work at the level of european institutions, one of the initiative, one of the initiatives in which the president of ukraine is championed by the government of ukraine, there is also the creation of joint control of the sandwich launch, that is, of course , there are many saved a little time and we are already moving to a new level of border control, and we are currently working on an intergovernmental agreement with the polish side separately, which specifically concerns control at joint checkpoints, and we hope that in the near future we will reach an understanding on the text and this agreement will be signed in the near future. i think

that it is also important to buy a dye here, what is it that children are developing only in kraków korchova, this does not mean that only there will be an increased capacity, then everyone thinks that all other checkpoints will also work better due to the fact that kraków korchov will be increased, unfortunately, it happened historically that for such a length of the border, as we really do not have enough of the checkpoints that exist now, it became obvious that it is necessary to direct there should be much more effort in developing points about them and this everyone understands all awareness, but also everyone understands that we are moving in the direction of european integration in the direction of membership in the european union we have already received the status of a candidate for membership in the european union , again thanks to the support of the polish state

and we hope that this will also speed up not only the process of improving the existing infrastructure on the border, but in general it will bring us closer to the fact that this border functions as it functions now in the countries of the chinese zone, in fact, so that the border of the european union moved further to the east, and on the border between ukraine and poland we could move freely, just like between poland and germany, now other countries of the european union, but returning to warsaw, diplomatic life is very active and well, of course, there are great interests of foreign services to ukraine or the russian embassy, ​​faith in time in diplomatic meetings. did you meet the ambassador once in warsaw ?

the war, we have nothing to talk about with him, and meeting him is definitely more than that. i believe that one of the consequences of this aggressive policy of putin should be the complete isolation of russia, including at the diplomatic level, sanctions, isolation, and support for the arms of ukraine, this is actually the three pillars on which our victory will be built, and here we have a common opinion, a common position, and with the polish side, the complete isolation of russia somehow does not quite walk the povaliy in warsaw, the kos came there, some sentiments, the cemetery and i don't remember that well, everyone is there they know it was a big scanner and the ukrainians

and the kulak will meet him there. it’s quite nice for me. yes , he dressed like that. i think he’s hiding somewhere there in his clothes. let me thank my president for this. i understand, if you hear from poland, i know that you you have lived here for many years. and i mean. how do you feel now? does it strike you when you see, for example, ukrainian flags on the streets of polish cities? this slogan of the kyiv-warsaw common cause has now acquired a completely new sound for me when i personally saw how much it great enthusiasm for solidarity and the spirit of support for ukraine is felt here not only in warsaw, but in other towns and cities of poland, it is inherent in all eh, i explain it very simply. poland, throughout its history, eh, has learned to value its statehood and independence, and it values ​​those who in the same way as the

poles in their history, they must defend their statehood and their independence, and as long as the ukrainian warrior will show heroism in the battles and repulse the enemy, this support is solidarity with ukraine, it will continue. i am more than convinced of this. well, i also see ukrainian flags on the way out of polish muscles and poles singing ukrainian songs, and i, for example, am also struck by something like this . the same as if in the dark, here are my sanctions, for example, i don’t show polish theater, but there are such things that impress me, everything is very necessary and necessary to do, as i say, russia and even ordinary russians who support putin’s policy, unfortunately must feel the consequences of this aggressive e-e war that they themselves unleashed without any

grounds in the civilized world - this is not a method of solving any issues, you cannot kill people just because he doesn't like something about you - first of all, you need to understand why you don't like something in yourself, then you need to understand why you occupied the sovereign territories of our country from uh, why did you take crimea, and for that we still have to love and respect you, russian peace, it is not inherent to the ukrainian people, no can we drag the russian world into this yoke and until the kremlin and until other russians do not understand that we cannot in any way be called one people we are different we are different but who am i not attacked by us supporters of peaceful coexistence and suddenly we get something that that what putin has done is not

in the head of any civilized person, that is why the consequences of an aggressive policy must be felt by every russian who did not condemn this aggression , who pretends that he is standing aside. there can not be a culture here separate from politics, it is no longer can this happen, i.e. so much that not only putin but also the entire russian people have already crossed this line that the only method to end this war as soon as possible is complete isolation in all spheres in all spheres and then let this or that russian think about why this is happened why did it happen and maybe you will start looking for the culprit in all of this somewhere near lenin's mausoleum maybe i would like to start looking for a free person there but as it shows it is hard to believe in it as they say water sharpens stone

i hope that it will be so if i say that warsaw has a common cause and there is no end. i would also like to say your word that you wrote. we listened to honey. how did you come to poland in june, that you plan to work as a fat man 24 hours a day, and for the sake of friendship with the ukrainian people because sponsor, for sure ukraine will win and i wish us that you will win quickly this will be our joint victory which we will celebrate together and this will be our new joint history which we are also building together already and now in a single united family thank you very much for the meeting i thank you very much to the espresso tv channel and the information and analytical marathon will continue in the future. we would like to thank our colleague bianca zalevsky for this

extremely important interview with the extraordinary plenipotentiary ambassador of ukraine to the republic of poland at 3:47 p.m. khrystyna yatskiv borkovsky, all our online -guests who join the broadcast to inform you about the most important things and analyze the already available information, and before we went to the news interview, i announced something to you about our next topic, it will be about energy the question, more precisely, about oil and its delivery routes to the european union. to some countries of the european union. i would like to remind you that yesterday, august 9, it became known that the hungarian oil and gas company has expressed its readiness to take over the payment of the transit of russian oil-transneft through the oil pipeline friendship through ukraine, because ukraine on august 4, it stopped the pumping of russian oil as a matter of friendship because russia could not pay for the transit

due to sanctions, the payment did not go through, of course the russian federation accused ukraine of and stopped the transit one way or another. but as of now, hungary and slovakia, the slovak oil company, reported that they themselves paid for the transit of russian oil through ukraine. we are in touch now. gennadiy ryabtsev, energy expert, director of special projects of the psyche center, mr. gennadiy, we congratulate you. glory to ukraine i congratulate you, i am glad to see you as a hero, slava. please tell me what is happening around russian oil, which is still going to some countries of the european union , and it is interesting that it is going to the territory of our state. preparatory processes for the introduction of full-scale oil paint, which will come into force on december 5 of this year, and during

these last months, the parties will accuse each other of all possible and impossible sins , because this embargo has hurt and it will hit european companies in ukraine, which will not receive 100 million dollars annually from e-e alloy in the form of payment for this transit. well, it is clear that those strikes on the european pro -russian e-e suppliers who i do not know what they will do with the oil that is currently being produced, if, for example, a gas company can change the amount of production in a wide enough range because gas is a compressible substance

, then such problems may arise with oil. what, for example, is my colleague mykhailo krutikh says that according to his estimates, in the next year, the volume of oil production in the russian federation may be reduced by half due to the imposed sanctions, and therefore to such an extent that the volume of revenues to the budget of the country may decrease. the oil industry of mr. hennadiy for ukraine, what consequences could this have for ukraine , the introduction of an oil barge could also have consequences because we now purchase almost 100% of petroleum products on the free european market. refers to the one on

which the surplus of oil products that remain after the oil refineries fulfill these medium-term and long-term contracts with the consumer in ukraine and the ukrainian companies and e-e state ones, including the naftogaz group, including the state reserve of ukraine . it would be possible to think about concluding these same medium-term and long-term contracts with the direct producers of petroleum products as soon as possible, otherwise there may not be enough on the free european market after the introduction of the embargo oil products for ukrainian consumers, important information has arrived, russia has accused ukraine of shelling the zaporizhia nuclear plant and is convening a council without the un on august 11 russia has invited a meeting of the security council in connection with the

alleged strikes of our troops on the zaporizhzhia nuclear plant as a speaker, the russians would like to see the ceo of megatex, this was reported to russian propagandists by a source in the un security council and the russian state news agency tas is dispelling the lie that the armed forces of ukraine are allegedly firing from of large-caliber artillery and rszv hurricane residential areas of the city of energodar well, we see in parallel that the russians are preparing to try to attach the zaporizhzhia nuclear plant to their of energy systems, mr. gennadiy how do you see the dynamics of the zaporizhia nuclear power plant in general and maybe tell you what the russians want to do, this is another hall of information war and it is quite

clear that now the russian propagandists will try to shift all responsibility to the ukrainian side for what is happening now around the zaporizhia npp and at the zaporizhzhia station and pretend that they are so white and fluffy, they just went there and bought this station, and such ukrainians demand something from occupying troops and they don’t want to see them here at all, well actually for internal consumption in the russian federation, it’s suitable there, there is some there , even this investigative committee there, some investigators are investigating something , well, that is, they seized someone else’s land and they are investigating something, and the land is as if they are the owner there. they became the masters, but who is the first

to crow, the russians think so, the first to use harika is the un. that means that everyone has to justify themselves for our energy systems. what will the withdrawal by the russian occupiers mean ? of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, well, where will they take it ? well, they will take the reactors to crimea, or what will you connect to the russian energy system? well, you can take and lay a power line to crimea, but this does not mean that somehow it is possible to ensure the specialization of supply somewhere, that is, everything here will be e- it is determined by where the management of the unified system will be carried out. now it is impossible to ensure the management of the unified system.

to the crimea, well, to supply electric energy via a separate line, if you build a network accordingly, you can, but you know any power lines, they are such that they are standing today and tomorrow they are not standing, and therefore just take and install some substation in order to ensure these supplies. well, of course it is possible, but how long will it be ? if the defense forces of ukraine will sit idly by and do nothing

to liberate the territories and it will last a year 2 3 4 therefore, somewhere in a year or two it will be possible for the russians to on solovyov's show, for example, to announce that the electric energy of the zaporizhzhia npp went to crimea. but we are all convinced that we do not need to flee for a year in order to see the liberation of kherson and the entire zaporizhzhia region, a very specific, specific character, given the fact that we cannot cause the city of the satellite of the nuclear power plant was hit, but yesterday, on the air of the national telethon , petro kotin, the head of energy, said that the zaporizhia nuclear power plant, if

the only power transmission line is interrupted, can go into blackout mode, what does this mean, it means that it will not be to produce power and in fact will be deleted from the list of those generating companies that currently ensure the reliability and safety of the unified energy system of ukraine, and in terms of energy security, this carries certain risks. no, this will not in any way affect the level of nuclear safety of the station as long as ukrainian personnel work at it, as long as all protocols and safety protocols, all technological regulations of the station are carried out, as long as all work provided for by the plans of the repair companies is carried out, nothing threatens this is

the same level of security. of course, if the storage of spent nuclear fuel is no, no, you saw what the same containers with spent nuclear fuel are, a little bit, well, in the previous sticks, and uh, here it is. they are there in the background and you can see that no matter how much you try, nothing will happen to them, of course, here i am, yes, and if of course there are some living there, well, i don’t know. well, as i say, there are enough idiots, and there are also enough inventive idiots a lot but in order to er realize in some well how much threatening er hmm there is

an extraordinary event to organize the zaporizhzhia npp, ingenuity alone is not enough, you need to understand what you are doing and how you are doing it also why are you doing this and eh that zaporizhzhia npp is the safest facility among all technologists of political facilities working in ukraine is a guarantee that if the occupiers do not interfere directly in the operation of the station, if they do not force the ukrainian personnel to leave the station, it is still a possibility i estimate the number of nuclear incidents at this station as minimal. thank you nadia ryabtsev , expert on energy issues, director of special projects, this is the center of the psyche, was in touch with us now is the time
