state where ukrainians will not die because independence is a state that protects each of its citizens greetings dear tv viewers worldview program, i will remind you, my name is vasyl zima and today we will talk about independence, the struggle for independence, we will remember how it was proclaimed and today what threats are facing it and this war for independence is a real holy war, what are the prospects of ending it quickly or not quickly, what price will have to be paid for in order to actually gain true independence, i invited yaroslav kenzer to the studio today. he is a people's deputy of ukraine of the first convocation. convocation, that is, the first period of creation of our

history, mr. yaroslav actually created it with his own hands , and volodymyr tsibulko is a political scientist. vladimir, i congratulate you. congratulations. congratulations, mr. volodymyr is also a people’s deputy, but now he will tell me which convocation, because i am always confused. at the same time in the session hall, we were in the same council, you know, we want to talk today, of course, and some historical things, talk about history, how was the declaration of independence, because this week we will to celebrate the 31st anniversary of our independence, but i will still start with an information about the fact that it was announced today by the mouth of the russian government official ryabkov, and so we will move on to the past, he said today that russia is ready to use nuclear weapons in case there is a threat to the existence of the russian state itself or if there is a threat to it or to its e partners e there who are the partners there it is difficult to understand well but again russia is returning to nuclear rhetoric i understand this for myself that actually

blackmail of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant fails to negotiate, which putin and zelensky really wanted putin was actually sent for a russian ship without fulfilling certain conditions no one will talk to putin because it makes no sense well , again, russia is aggravated and again mentioned nuclear weapons and the doomsday, mr. yaroslav, the first question for you. work with different representatives of different states. do you believe that this russia with such power is still capable of pressing the buttons of the nuclear, this, the nuclear, of its suitcase ? amenable to analysis and assessment,

etc. and so on, what i mean is that, for example , when their rockets hit our territory from belgorod, kursk, sumy oblast, chernihiv oblast, kharkiv oblast, and when someone says that the answer must be given in such a way points where are these artillery shells or rockets coming from? it means that russia is indignant that how could they, so to speak, dare to hit our territory, that we can be bombed from their territory and destroy everything possible, so to speak, and russia is already beginning to understand what these long years of the existence of this empire and all the

baggage that it created russia, well, i swore that i will not use the word russia so that muscovy er during its existence, that is, from the times er after er ivan iv grozny starting with peter i when she russia has become, so to speak, everything related to its crimes . to frighten ukraine and our allies,

in the end, the whole thinking democratic world. so, i think that um, it's uh, and when we watch, and you, mr. vasyl, probably also catch it, that russia is already starting some, well, not to the end yet understandable events when there hmm it's the death of this one duginoi and so on that some kind of national republican army was created there, they say the republican army and the instigators of wars well , in a word, unknown processes begin there, so to speak, it is clear that everything that arises as if some kind of oppositional movements, uh, they uh, as a rule , are never useful for ukraine, to some extent, they are useful when there is already some internal opposition, some disorganization, some

conflicts and so on, of course the thing is that this will certainly bother putin, this immortal cat and it will be easier for ukraine, ukraine. i am convinced, and this is more than once. various processes that will lead to the disintegration of the integration of this last terrible bloody empire in the world, which, due to various circumstances and economic sanctions and er, well, famous hmm eh well,

the world is simply amazed at how hmm ukrainian soldiers ukrainian soldiers know how to use with the newest means of destruction with weapons that we will receive from our allies, and all this should eventually lead to the fact that from russia, russia , led by its glorious capital moscow, so to speak, will remain there in those mokshan marshes and actually return to where everything came from it started from my time, mr. volodymyr, do you want a word, mr. volodymyr, and about these nuclear threats, they have renewed again, well, i remembered mr. yaroslav, i just work in the people's republican army, yesterday they made such a manifesto, they said that we destroyed it i give dugin to platonova and in general, we are against all oligarchs who finance the regime, against putin's regime

and in general against warmongers. i understand that this is some kind of such a new unit in the fsb that decided to call it the people's republican army. maybe someone is financing this whole thing. maybe there really is a russian riot without, well, you know , the revolutionary hydra got out somewhere, and here is the phrase , these three letters, which were once invented by boris kunin in the novel statskyi sdd . please, well, look at the modern researchers of authoritarianism , they uh well, let's say that they note the constant switching of uh external threats to internal threats, authoritarianism always uh after starting internal h- external aggression sooner or later switches to internal aggression, being unable to show a certain result well, what is it? ilya ponomarev

phantom to be honest, the point is that the protest in russia is so muffled that it is not possible to somehow signal to the authorities about the dissatisfaction of the population with political methods. that is why they are leaving more than 20 military commissariats have already been burned, this is a non-declarative form of protest against the war in ukraine, but when i want to remind ryabko, someone born somewhere in ukraine or in the kirovohrad region scares ukraine with a nuclear strike, then let him see who is a real threat to russia, er, to the russian federation in in its current form, it is not an external threat that is terrible for the russian federation, in a year the territory of russia is burning.

lives below the poverty line, it's just an evil 50 million poor people, sooner or later their patience will run out further eh, well, the lack of technological lag is clear, that is, eh, in sum, eh, now it seems to me that the russian authorities eh decided to switch their attention to domestic enemies, since the war in ukraine on the external perimeter is a losing one for russia, everyone already notes that russia has exhausted its offensive potential , so now to avert this defeat i think that a whole chain of pretexts for internal terror and, most likely, the undermining of the power line near the kursk nuclear power plant can be called such pretexts, well, the same ones, the murder of this platonic daughter

of dugin, what is interesting is that it is unclear, an attempt on her is all - did he act on the arch of the old man , well, to say that they have some super important value for the russian authorities. no, they do not have any value, but as a certain symbolic sacrifice for turning the internal world into hysteria with the kremlin's technologies, this all done i think that is almost flawless, now we will go back a little and talk about how ukraine became independent, because i will remind you that in two days we will celebrate independence day, well, in fact, in a day, on the 23rd or 22-23rd, we will already celebrate independence day , mr. yaroslav was then in the parliament still knows me, what surprises me, will you tell me about how

it was and what the threats were to this group, what is the name of group 23, even so, these communists in the parliament, i was a schoolboy then, i just went under the parliament with a flag, well, i was then somewhere in which in the sixth or seventh grade, but i used to go, so i looked at this whole thing from hrushevsky street, by the way, i remember what it was called then, no, it wasn’t hrushevsky, i don’t remember what it was called. but you know what interests the people who voted more than 90% for independence there in the referendum, how these people were able to keep the party nomenclature in power with all due respect to the late leonid makarovych , but still. she is i was doomed to war after a certain time, please, thank you for the question. i would like to say hello to mr. volodymyr tsibulik. i haven't seen him in a while, because

i haven't been to kyiv since january, so volodymyr is happy to see you. good health. when i think about it now, we involuntarily approach the 31st anniversary of our statehood after the adoption of the act of independence. in order to understand all the problems all the difficulty of going to the vote on this unique historical act, the act of restoration, we did not manage to include the word restoration in the name of this act, so that in fact it was restoration, in fact, we have already more than

once in the 20th century alone, we have 18 -th year january 22 and june 30 of the 41st year of restoration of ukrainian statehood and so on. and today's ukraine, but about that the communists categorically did not want to include this word in the title of this act, but then we managed to have a historical link to this document. i don't know how they missed it because everyone we have to understand

the personnel of the verkhovna rada of the ukrainian ssr, which began its work on may 15, and the elections to the verkhovna rada of the ukrainian ssr took place on march 4, 1990 , and here is a large group of former dissidents from political prisoners and chornovil and kalyantsi e igor and iryna e-e and bohdan and mykhailo and lukyanenko are many that is, the people, well, we formed at the beginning of the work of the verkhovna rada of the ukrainian ssr, then according to the soviet chronology of the 12th convocation, it means that out of 450 deputies, somewhere at the beginning, there were 115,117 members of the

people's council. when then, the agency that was there was like that now er, there were several such er, who simply revealed themselves as soon as we saw that they were er, exiles of the agency, who, having attended the meeting of the people's council here, already ran from our meeting to the bank of the communist party of ukraine and informed about what happened there, and so on, such a magician was from donetsk, there is such a kotsyuba, there are still a few people, they left, and we were already at the time of going out for the approval of this document of the act, about 100 reliable 110 men, all the rest are the entire bolshevik elite, all the politb of the bureau of the central committee of the communist party of ukraine, the first, second, third , secretaries of the city's regional committees and in the district committees and red

directors, to make any decision, it is already every schoolchild, and according to the regulations of the verkhovna rada, 226 votes are needed, we have a hundred how to adopt, of course , such a document that we aimed at, it was desirable to adopt a constitutional majority of two by thirds of the votes, that is, by three votes , that was the problem, but due to different reasons. it takes a long time to tell how we did not beat anyone. in the people's council, there is a discussion about what this act should be, how it should be called, this document. we didn't

know the name yet. there were different proposals at the meeting of the people's council. i universal and the law and the declaration, even though we made declarations a year ago 16 in july 1990, everything was approved. so we are agreed on the word act, we are creating a historical act of the restoration of ukrainian statehood , and look, i know that very few people, vasyl, know the text of this document, this historical document, it’s 25 seconds, and i
