to return to the building of the kherson regional council well, i am very happy that the day is our city, but in the building, you know , for sure today, the war taught us that the building today is worth nothing today, the power of the nation, the power of the people, the power of the city lies precisely in the people , so i think that the office is also for the regional council and the office for the military administration. he will just be among the people. i don't think that today we need to furnish the white house there again, as they say in our country, or there are some other things to do there, well, we will say that the authorities are more fetishistic, which the president said today. how is this possible ? to be among the people and today our military showed that they are in such conditions that, well, other people did not accept at all, but they live in them, we use them, they fight and show the miracles of heroism

that we see just in the kherson region, alexander, you understand very well what is symbolic things, when the flag is raised over the building of the regional council building, when you go there, it's not about working in the walls and separating ourselves from people, it's about the fact that our foot is now stepping on what is ours, not what i rightfully own. i want more to ask about how local self-government will be established, in particular, perhaps you know that there are a lot of networks writing guesses about where the mayor of the city of games kolikhayev might be now. well, if you say so, look at the territory of the kherson region . a part of the region that is also under occupation by the president of ukraine by his decrees, the regional military administration of the districts, military administrations and military administrations of e-e was created

settlements, we will say in some communities, some of these are cities, which during the time of martial law, they replace local self-government, let's say so , from local self-government, only the regional council remains, because well, there is no such body that would replace it, and today we are functioning there in parallel with there from the military administration, so let's say that the mayors of cities who were not reappointed as presidents are the heads of military administrations, they are not legitimate to date, where in fact igor's fate is hanging in the balance remains unknown, he is not put on the list as a er, well, let's say this is an object for the exchange of

prisoners of war, he is not declared as a person who has been arrested. the day is very difficult, there is a petition that was prepared by him and his son, there are public organizations that came out, but at the state level, the fate of igor kalikha and the fate of oleksandr babych - he is the mayor of the city of holoprystan, it is unfortunately unknown rather, there is information, but it is not officially confirmed, well, let's say from official sources there in the russian federation. alexander, please tell me. a week ago, you reported on your facebook page about the information that it seems that some people from kherson were looting what the occupiers did not loot before fleeing - it concerned various government buildings and in particular the regional council, is there any confirmation or have you found confirmation of this? well, i am sure that confirmation will be found there

today and tomorrow, because together with the military personnel there, today, they are starting their work in the de-occupied territories, and it is precisely the units of the national police, units of other special services that are engaged in the investigation of these crimes, that's why the facts are such, the facts are recorded , we have witnesses who saw it all. i think we will find part of it the property that was stolen there already after, let's say, the occupiers, and everyone who is guilty of this will be brought to justice, because you know, probably the most pressing question facing the people of kherson today is what will happen to these collaborators who they really accepted the enemy's offer to cooperate, and they, by the way, by the way, mr. oleksandr, they are somehow trying to get in touch with you, former colleagues, the same traitors, collaborators

. her decision to betray her motherland, which nurtured her, after we put it this way, she becomes unnecessary for the enemy. she starts right here to look for places to find herself again in this ukraine and to find herself, to show what they really expected, what they were preparing for well, that's right, it was veiled by the activity. they wanted to, but i emphasize once again that every collaborator was seen, every collaborator was recorded and every collaborator will receive extra time . careers, the first is to run away with their new owners, the second is to end

their life behind bars and who among the young may still have time to atone for guilt and guilt, and some i think they will go to kobzon's concert as a valiant i have already shown ours, you are standing there, everything will be, i don't know how to call him a person there or not, but one of the collaborators is the one who was in the kherson region, that's why i say that they have a destiny, there are only three paths that they chose themselves, there will be no other path and so he supports the words that, you know, after the war in ukraine, not a single collaborator should remain , we have a lot of time left, what are the prospects for a quick restoration of energy and water supply due to the connection, which is very important, because even with relatives it is not possible to talk now, to congratulate them with such what a great day, what a dream all these months are, look

at today, broadcasting on t2 has already been resumed in some territories, eh, this is ukrainian television, this is the first eh, eh, there is ukrainian radio, which is starting to be broadcast there in short frequencies , and i think that we will have quite a strong signal, uh, as for communication, we have a uh, promise to quickly restore everything related to energy supply, well, now they say that it is a month . i am sure that we will do it. on today they provide opportunities there khersonoblenergo in order to restore those destroyed e-e in well, with the pros of this line well, they say that this is a month, i really hope that it will be a shorter period, especially since kherson has electricity supply from various sources,

so how will we transfer, we will search, you know, the main thing is that today there is an opportunity for the team to go out and work today, we have a problem with the gas supply there in the former belozersky district, which will have to be solved, well, today tomorrow, you know the questions about e-e energy supply, there is a lot of wintering, a lot, but i am sure that already having the opportunity to move on our territory, i think that we will solve it quickly enough and try to solve the issue of food supply and the restoration of some buildings, they are already planned. i think that starting tomorrow, the military administration will already start delivering products and everything necessary to this territory, it depends directly on the electricity supply, so i

i think that we will attract generators there, and if we refer again to the social network, the people of kherson already today launched a call to raise funds for generators, so i think that by attracting such autonomous sources of power supply, we will be able to solve the issue of water supply in at least at least local, in some points we will equip heating points, we will do some other things that are necessary in the conditions of the approaching winter there today. well, i am sure that if we say so, the enemy will give us at least some respite then we will be able to restore it all as soon as possible . thank you, congratulations once again. oleksandr samoilenko , the head of the kherson regional council, was in touch with us . russia does not allow humanitarian missions and cargo to temporarily seize the territory of ukraine, which was opposed by the assistant spokesperson

of the united nations, stephanie tremblay says that humanitarian missions continue to expand their activities, they are preparing cargo for delivery to the district where active hostilities are taking place, as well as to the de-occupied settlements of elena. nika zhennikova, congratulations good evening good evening mrs. olena and i would like to continue the topic of kherson , the liberated territories in mykolaiv oblast, especially considering the fact that now there is a difficult situation, there is no power supply, no water, no communication, how will humanitarian aid, humanitarian cargoes be organized, look there, i will tell you so that starting from the first day of the war, when the kherson region and kherson itself were occupied, despite the fact that the territory was completely and practically occupied. we tried even at the time when there was already

by railway transport, we could not transfer humanitarian aid there by large trucks, small cars, they just transferred food in the trunks of cars, that is, how could we transfer it, but i can say that uh talking with people there in the kherson region who were under occupation problems with uh food products were actually not there because er well, it’s just such an area where er, they grow a lot of things er and er, well, there were actually no interruptions from fasting from food there . another question: what was the difficulty with financing the purchase of this everything and so on but i can say that compared to the luhansk region in the kherson region, there were no such problems with products and hygiene in the occupied territories , this is the first, the second, er, i can say, er, that there personally took part in the formation of food kits from the state funds purchased

food products in dnipropetrovsk and transferred them to kherson, well, not to kherson itself, kherson region, where humanitarian aid could also be transferred, but it was all in small, er, small batches today when such an opportunity exists, in fact, we have stocks of this humanitarian aid in order to redirect it to the kherson region, just as we did from the kharkiv region, that is, in fact, all regions, first of all, these are the western regions, lviv , zakarpattia, ivano-frankivsk, which in most cases , they take on the burden of receiving humanitarian aid, they have this material in their warehouses and they hold it back as quickly as possible somewhere by railway, it seems by cars to kherson, kherson region, there are no problems with this this is what is happening, we understand you correctly ms. elena, there was a reserve, they made a kind of strategic reserve of a pillow because the territories are now, er, what are the efforts of our heroes, warriors, where they are occupied in

a short period of time, er, the number of these territories has increased many times, and it will be necessary a lot of humanitarian aid. look, i can say that in the kharkiv region, 568 settlements were deoccupied there in a few weeks . we managed to provide people with food and heating as efficiently as possible and with warm things and means of hygiene and medicine and so on, yes, it is difficult, i can say that today, for example, so that we understand how great a burden it is on the state emergency service, which today works on the occupied territories, because the enemy, leaving these territories, actually mines everything. and today we have 568 of populated areas where in the occupied kharkiv region demining was actually carried out in only 123 populated areas. that is, we are talking about the fact that this is a huge amount of work and before the humanitarian cargo can go there in

a large stream, it is necessary to in order not to expose people to danger, first of all to carry out demining there. therefore, all this will be coordinated, first of all, through the regional military administration, through the head of the regional military administration, and what you asked is true. the balances that were specially kept so that it could be distributed as soon as there is such an opportunity in the kherson region. and as for the payments in the liberated territories in the newly liberated territories of kherson oblast , mykolaiv oblast, what amounts are in question, i can’t to answer exactly what sums we are talking about now, but i can say that for example, for example, there is one, as i already said, in the kharkiv region . 23

branches of ukrposhta are already working, which means that in fact you can come to 200-3 settlements and receive a pension and other social benefits, but we understand exactly. is it a little less than half? yes, and all these things are happening as quickly as possible, but not yet demining has been carried out. we cannot open any other establishments there, which we talked about today in order to provide people through well, of course, channels through ukrposhta. but i think that first of all humanitarian headquarters will be created . warm clothes are about eastern medical aid, everything related to further payments can be done when life starts up in these territories, well ms. elena, in many settlements, the destruction of civil the infrastructure of the homes of ukrainians, in particular in the same kherson oblast, is just catastrophic, but hmm how

often do you meet or face a refusal to evacuate, well, look, i’ll tell you this way that each territory has its own characteristics, e.e., for example, on august 30, the cabinet made a decision ministers about the mandatory evacuation from the territory of the donetsk region because, first of all, we understood that the cold season was approaching and, in such a way, there was such and such an amount of infrastructure that works just we we understood that people would be cold and it would be impossible to stay there, that's why a decision was made to evacuate , yes, we understand that it is by force. a note on which parents were warned that it would be dangerous to be in these territories , offered to take them out with their children and

offered to sign these offers or refusals from these offers, and i will tell you that at the time of the beginning there were about thousands of children taken out of donetsk region, and in fact we took everything out of donetsk region for the entire period of two years, more than two months, we were lucky that the largest population there was 15,000, that is, 15 were taken out of 300,000, that is, 50,000 children were taken, i understand there may be a couple of thousand children. we took no more than from the donetsk region, although there are active hostilities there every day , and so on. in the kharkiv region, the situation is slightly different. people, being near the occupation, still stayed in their territories and did not leave. to what extent were we able to organize the systematic removal of people by rail from kharkiv oblast, as the majority of people still left difficult areas but remained in the territory of kharkiv oblast itself, for the residents of the left right bank of ukraine to

evacuate e. action or some kind , more than one and a half million places have been created for the resettlement of temporarily displaced persons, as of today, there are about 200,000 free places there. that is , these are places where it is possible to live, eat in including receiving payments in these territories, and every day, the regional military administration persuades people through uh, there is systematic removal , first there by cars, buses, and then by rail, to take people away for free, but i can say that the number of evacuees from the territory is from these active hostilities are currently taking place in 7 regions, which is decreasing every week, that is, if there were 15-14,000 people a week there a month and a half ago, today it is slightly more than 2,000 people who are evacuating from of the five o-e regions that we are talking about, the authorities are

persuading the authorities to indicate e-e places where you can stay safely, especially with children, but it so happened that people are not leaving, that is, part of the people left since the beginning of the war, and part of the people there are leaving little by little now but it's very little by little thank you for joining our marathon the only news olena symonenko, adviser to the deputy head of the office of the president of ukraine, was with us europe must do to support ukraine and help restore destroyed energy facilities, the eu does not plan to return to the purchase of russian gas, the aggressor country managed to replace the fuel thanks to alternative sources of supply, european energy commissioner cadre simpson told about this in an interview with radio svoboda, the material was prepared by zoryana stepanenko, since

october 10, russia has targeted the civil infrastructure of ukraine, electricity production, power transmission lines, and heating plants, all for in order to cause human suffering and this is categorically unacceptable, we must do everything that depends on us to support the ukrainian engineers who are doing everything possible to restore, if they can, and replace completely destroyed old elements of the form or substations, we have created an energy support fund together with the energy community so that countries both from the eu and beyond its borders could support these efforts, in many cases this is not a question of funding and the need for very specific equipment and equipment is a problem, the energy community and my services are contacting companies that may have this equipment in stock and we have already received several positive answers, so the first transformers are on the way to be replaced by the ones that russian missiles destroyed, companies and people on the ground have done miracles

to continue repairs on site despite continuous shelling and we must provide the necessary equipment so that they can continue to do their work, of course the losses are significant, 40% of the infrastructure is not working and therefore the winter will be very difficult, but step by step we can repair the damage, besides, ukraine has been connected to our electricity grid since march, so europe can provide additional flows of electricity to replace part of the lost electricity production from ukrainian land, we have proposed a funding scheme for the next year for ukraine and they will really prioritize their financial needs to restore the energy infrastructure but in general it will give ukraine a stable flow of support of one and a half billion euros every month and as i already noted that energy

infrastructure is their unequivocal priority because without heat without electricity it will be very difficult to survive. but we cannot wait for this money will be delivered work is underway to find alternative equipment it is difficult to estimate how many households will remain without electricity this winter because no one knows the plans of the russian military we do not know if we will be able to regain control over the largest european nuclear power plant there are many unknowns while the war continues but we are doing our best to people had access to heat even if this means only temporary generators instead of stable external transformers there is a clear consensus and willingness to support ukraine from the first day and the best example of that is the very fast synchronization of the ukrainian power grid with the european one, it should have taken another year and a half, they did it in a few weeks, in addition, the decision to impose sanctions on russia and its

energy sector, which required unanimity on the part of the eu, is also evidence that countries do not want to sponsor this war, but this is a constant process. we are also learning how to transport the necessary equipment to these objects in ukraine, where damage has been caused, and some of these devices are very are unique and transportation is a difficult task, but i and my colleagues there know how to provide this assistance, in particular with the participation of international companies, because part of this equipment is produced outside of europe in different time zones and different geographical locations, with the help of these companies, we will step by step deliver the necessary substations to them and all the companies i spoke with confirmed that they give priority to ukrainian needs because we can not leave millions of people without access to energy when winter approaches, but now it is under control is periodic blackouts and in

circumstances when there was a large-scale attack by drones and missiles aimed not only at electricity production but also at power lines - this is not something we can fix quickly but we know how to do it it is very easy to damage this one takes seconds or minutes to restore it, it takes weeks in some cases because this equipment is not available and production takes months in the worst case, we need unanimity to agree on sanctions, which means that every time we announce a new package of sanctions it should hurt the russian economy more than ours if it doesn't it affects our ability to support ukraine besides there are european companies that no longer buy russian oil or gas because of the reputational risks they don't want to send to our financial russia and step by step this is how we will get rid of this

dangerous dependence on russian purchased fuel, our underground storages are full, we have replaced all the lost volumes of russian gas as alternative suppliers, our reliable partners have significantly increased their offers. in addition, next year we will launch a joint gas procurement platform and will buy gas from all reliable partners, and it is a clear principle that we will not jointly purchase russian gas. the return of kherson to ukraine is an important step on the way to full restoration of its sovereign rights, french president emmanuel macron wrote about this on twitter, assured that france will continue to support ukrainians and ukraine bohdan feran is an expert on international issues joins our night broadcast. we welcome you, our congratulations. congratulations, mr. bohdan. so, how much the liberation of kherson and almost the entire mykolaiv region now brings us closer to the general victory,

in particular and in the eyes of our allies. by the way, this is really very important, as it has repeatedly i repeated in our joint broadcasts that the victory at the front, they strengthen the faith of our partners directly in the approach of this victory and help to argue to our diplomats what the scope of this military aid, including military aid, we need unequivocal, therefore it is extremely important to have victories on the front, which are then converted into even greater support for our western partners. please tell me, bohdan, does this bring us closer to the european union ? greetings, if we hear statements about increasing military aid, it is clear that

we want to end this war with victory, of course . the proposal is not to wait until the end of 2023 to evaluate the criteria for membership in the union, given the high progress and the dynamics that began at the beginning of the year, however, in brussels they believe that ukraine is not ready and do not want to accelerate ukraine's entry into the organization here. i believe that we have already become closer in order to the european union, because you really know that calamity sometimes unites uh and we really see that the russian calamity and the russian threat have brought our country very close to the european community not only on the political level but also on

such an interpersonal relationship is necessary because we have long been a part of the european community, what concerns full membership really has its own procedure of its own specificity, and we have to make , as far as possible, those changes that bring us closer to real entry. now we really have to get feedback on the recommendations that were when we were granted candidate status and to try to start negotiations on what to enter, i.e. realistically, i think this is the next phase that should logically continue as regards terms i am sure that as soon as the final victory is achieved then and much faster the doors of the european community itself can be opened for ukraine and the doors for us to say the last statement

of olga stefanishyna, the vice prime minister for european and euro-atlantic integration, she says that it cannot be ruled out that it is positive solving the issue of ukraine's accession to nato will be possible even before the end of the war. do you think that the members of the alliance can reconsider their position and invite ukraine even before we win? i would like to hope for that. but again, it is also realistic to approach this issue because, well, we have submitted our application, and we expect at least not only the statements of leaders such as mr. stoltenberg , the secretary general, but also other key e-e representatives of nato member states regarding our application will now be passed. by the way, the parliamentary dimension of the meeting of nato member states in madrid

is literally there in a week, and it is also important to receive certain signals in support of us there, this is also a key issue. and we see that even for countries such as sweden and finland, procedurally, not everything is so easy and simple and quick, so we need to be ready to unambiguously use them to hear and understand that nato will also open its doors much wider as soon as, again, the situation in the security context in ukraine will be stable then, in my opinion, the chances are much higher. by the way, olga stefanishyna made a statement not only about nato, but also about the same european union. she said that already in january of next year, the government will start work on formation of a negotiating position regarding negotiations before joining the euro
