grace to you have fun shanghai graduation sun turn on like spring session not take me out through us straight carries a good one now on the clock it is almost four and i am thinking of a new idea to pitch to anton very much anton we pass the word to you because the beginning of the hour and i want to remind you that by the way it is in december 1917 in 2018, the central rada adopted a law on the formation of a general court. you see, we can exchange books and we can exchange historical facts , although it is already a new day on the calendar and i am a little late with my december 15th, and december 13th if not i'm wrong, it's been 145 years since the birthday of mykola leontovich, the author of this legendary philanthropist, so we'll fight with historical facts,

but now the news release is strengthening the borders of ukraine with drones, join the gathering of border guards . glory to ukraine . the fourth on the calendar, december 16, 296 days of full-scale war continues. i'm anton, it's scary and the news release is just now 18 billion euros will be provided by the european union to ukraine next year, the leaders have decided on this of the eu states, the european union remains committed to providing aid to ukraine and supporting its recovery , it is stated in the document of the european council. it also mentioned the agreement of the j7 group of countries to create a donor platform to support ukraine and recommended the european commission to strengthen the allocation of power generators, transformers and lighting and high-voltage equipment in the country, in addition to the head of state have noted that they will continue to

support refugees from ukraine, this concretely shows that the european union is firm adhere to their commitment keeps their word this is obviously very important for ukraine, besides, the heads of state of the european union agreed to increase military aid to ukraine, first of all, this will apply to anti-aircraft defense and mine clearance, a minefield with streamers was discovered in front of the donbass, the occupiers hid fragmentation mines in the thick grass, military television broadcasts such field mines are called unguided because , installed on a stretcher, at the slightest touch to the wire, the mines bounce up and strike at a distance up to 30 m, all this is contrary to the norms of the ottawa convention, to which ukraine joined back in the 90s, they discovered seven days ago uzm2 were once

installed along the line so that no one could pass such pegs sticking out of the earth, which are stretched along them . and so it will pepper if somewhere, there is a bulgarian, somewhere something, we are checking everything with probes, well, actually, we will find out that all nine power units of nuclear plants located in the territory under the control of ukraine are working at full capacity, the head of the nuclear power plant, petro kotin he noted that in winter the power plants always work at full capacity. so that ukrainians have electricity, at the same time , ukraine does not receive electricity from the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, which was captured by the russians, konkin added, and so that the heating supply of poltava was uninterrupted and did not depend on the disconnection of

electricity . heat, if the stabilization or emergency outages were long-lasting, as it is likely that the clouds will be prepared for businesses and citizens in our next material earlier during power outages in poltava, a quarter of the boiler houses in the city remained without power, and they provide heat to 120 apartment buildings so that heating in people's homes works without interruption, the boiler houses began to be fed from other substations, they say at poltavateploenergo, a working group has been created, which includes representatives of the poltavateploenergo enterprise and representatives of the poltavaoblenergo enterprise, with the aim of reconnecting e.e. poltavateploenergo boiler companies to other substations so that they do not fall under hourly schedules or emergency shutdowns for a week heating operators have already adjusted the work of more than half of the boiler houses, and they continue the work, they

plan to complete it in two weeks, meanwhile, the city water supply company assures that in the event of a blackout, people will be able to collect water from street columns, however, even now, during long-term power outages with water supply in apartments on the upper floors, there may be interruptions the water does not have time to reach the ford let's say yes to the upper floors if it takes at least half an hour there for the water under pressure to reach the main networks and for the rest of the consumers to receive it it is necessary to pump it, and for that if the 9th-10th floors there could simply not have time and receive it because it was increasing. during this period, the water distribution so that the water in the houses came uninterrupted electricity in poltava was turned off for no more than two hours due to massive enemy attacks on the energy infrastructure of ukraine, now the region can

not produce electricity on its own, therefore, the capacities that poltava region receives from other regions mainly feed critical infrastructure. and what remains is distributed by consumers of critical infrastructure today, it consumes somewhere around 100-150 megawatts of electricity per hour in queues, we left our consumers in queues, we have three queues that consume somewhere around 140,200 megawatts/hour of electricity in total, if you compare a year ago, we consumed 850 mw of electricity with you on this date, the places will not say, we bought everything necessary if there is no electricity for a long time to charge the gadgets will go to unbreakable points nearby, now there are 87 in the city, the period when there is light, everyone is charging there, the phone, others some gadgets, well, let's say, products, if

there is no light for a long time, you can take them out to the balcony when it 's cold, in principle, this is not such a big problem. well, of course, there is a problem, but in principle it is tolerable. i think that during the war, in principle, everyone has difficulties, so people also understand what if the situation is not standard, it is usually difficult somewhere, yes, there is a flashlight, they bought one on batteries, on a battery, what else is there? well, there is more of this. well, there is a power bank for a mobile phone, and there is nothing else like that. the authorities offer to return half of the cost of the generators maksym gumirov anna ruzhyn tv channel rada nationwide marathon the only news massive shelling of one of the

dtek energy enterprises there were no casualties as a result of the attack seriously damaged equipment is noted by the company, but where exactly it happened is not reported now the enterprise is completely disconnected from the power system i will note that first in autumn, energy-generating enterprises have already suffered 19 terrorist attacks in russia wind snow rain day and night or in the combat zone it does not matter the brigade repairmen every day and under any conditions repairs trophy military equipment restored and given to the use of our defense forces, but how does the team work and how is their work set up? valeria dermenjiva will tell you at night. it was in question under the big well , the two of them and a partner decided to help pull

has been working since the first days of the full-scale invasion, the men are fixing malfunctions of various complexity in the open air in any weather and day and night we are engaged in repairs right in the places where our armed forces are located, there is nothing scary, only fools are afraid. what does it depend on when we will end this war in our favor it will rain and we will try to take turns some are warming up somewhere drying others are working we are trying to change each other to support each other on konstantin's account, more than 100 units of repaired equipment have been repaired, a personal record of seven machines per day by a team of three people during the arrival of on- site repair teams, approximately 90-95% of the equipment that was declared for repair is restored, the rest is towed to

repair sites or to a safe place where it can be to repair, however, we are preparing ourselves, men are not called to repair equipment on the very front line , for them, it is a duty to the military and the country valeria dermadzhuyeva tv channel rada nationwide marathon single news so this there was the main news for the moment in less than an hour, i returned to this studio with a news release at 5 in the morning and then a word to my colleagues tetyana goncharova maksym zborovskyi continue to inform you also about the events of the news and everything that is happening we follow what is happening very carefully and in the sky of ukraine at this time. for now, everything is calm. we hope it will be like this throughout today, december 16. we will remind you that there are 15 days left until the end of this year, and we hope that the armed forces of ukraine together with the command will give us an opportunity

- financial assistance. next to the madness of the neighbor and the light can disappear at any moment when it's dark in the house it's an opportunity to spend time without gadgets my son and i play chess in words hide and seek let's not lose optimism to look for the light in ourselves when it is turned off, despite everything we do not stop life. these tests will definitely make us stronger in the dark. we can see the light better, so russian writing will not break us. on the contrary, we will be stronger and more responsible for ourselves, for our country and for our neighbor. we will all survive the winter together unitedly ukraine the light will continue to stand, we will defeat the armed forces of ukraine, we will defeat the darkness

for the sustainability of the reconstruction of ukraine, the organizers invited 47 countries and international organizations as well as representatives of five hundred french companies for potential investment in the economy of ukraine during a video speech at the summit, volodymyr zelenskyi said that the main problem now is the return of light to all houses due to russian shelling, millions of citizens remain without electricity every day while energy companies eliminate the consequences of the attacks, the president of ukraine emphasized withstood the russian attacks of varying intensity in our energy sector, but now most of our power plants are unfortunately damaged or destroyed by shelling, all hydroelectric power plants, all thermal power plants, where i have already been, but imagine that this is significant in your countries, one of the russian strikes provoked the shutdown of all the atomic units of our

nuclear power plants, the automation worked, fortunately, without incidents , only for the superficial quick restoration of the ukrainian energy destroyers destroyed by russian strikes , at least 1 .5 billion euros, the results of the energy rammstein, which countries are ready to support the ukrainian energy system and transfer more generators on the results of international meetings this week, look further in a conversation with diplomat ruslan osypenko, every day we are in france, the economic site rammstein was held economically, as it is called, and in some places it also means energy , energy economic, because this one is about money for energy, including so we will talk about this topic with our guest ruslan osypenko, a diplomat greetings to you, mr. ruslanim. good day. how do you generally evaluate these developments regarding our partners, in particular,

representatives of jcb countries, but also prime ministers, presidents of other continents, even continents? after all, there were also people from asia there regarding the support of ukraine, our president mentioned a lot of important things, in particular, about e-e transformers, gas turbine piston units for these generators, about emergency support from the eu, about gas supply and support there, about a lot of things, whether everything will be successful to implement all these urgent needs based on the results of this summit. i think it will be possible to implement all of this, but i would like to focus a little on something else. look at what kind of subjectivity ukraine is acquiring in the process of this war uh, it actually appeared on the political mega-political map of the world, that is, after rammstein , we see the energy of this new rammstein or

the paris rammstein, energy camps of countries that have united and support ukraine, the institutionalization of this support has actually started, that is, the coordination and the emergence of institutions that will coordinate this assistance, and this has been for a long time , that is, you can no longer worry about whether they will will they support us in the 23rd year, will they support us there until the end or not, that is, the first moment has acquired subjectivity, and the second is that the union that was formed and supports ukraine will be preserved until the end, until ukraine wins, you understand, there is no doubt in principle about that that we will always support issues in terms of volume in the nomenclature, er, in the pace of this support, because very often they arrive with a delay, to put it mildly. but the key result of this meeting in paris is that they say that a new platform should be created

hmm, it was agreed upon by the g7, and this platform will allow donors to see the needs of ukraine and coordinate their aid. they say that there is such a platform in the military plan, but there is still no such platform for civilian aid. how much will it really improve and improve these mechanisms of aid to ukraine that are already in place now? definitely if you have a tool er if you know how to use it then it speeds up the work just about what you said er there may be duplicate help for example the same things will be supplied by different countries when absent you have a centralized mechanism that coordinates this assistance, for example, italy and greece can supply a generator when, in the presence of such a mechanism, italy would supply generators, and greece, for example, would simply pay there, for example , the transfer of electricity to ukraine so

that there would be no blackout, that is, there would be no overlays with coordinated assistance, it will be provided faster. if we talk about the results, well, you already know that, but we started with this, then it is important to mention the statements of the ruling yes, the head of the country is that the crimea of ​​france is a mile of macron, who for the first time practically declared that in france directly, he has agreements with the russian federation regarding the withdrawal of the zaporizhia nuclear power plant of heavy weapons. occupation of the zaporizhzhia region, and of course the station itself. how do you evaluate this statement? he noted that it is true that in the next few weeks they will, well, at this time, they will be decisive, but does this mean that russia is really ready to leave not only the station but also part of the occupied zaporozhye region, and so and this was discussed earlier, in particular, such a discussion, and

so it is possible that the movement of the armed forces of ukraine will also speed up, as was announced by representatives of our ukrainian intelligence, i do not think that russia is ready to leave the station, she is ready to use it as a tool for trade, where did such statements come from, then uh-uh statements. i think that there were previous preliminary conversations of the head of megate uh-uh with the parties to the bilateral negotiations with ukraine and bilateral negotiations with russia separately and certainly in the european union cannot but know the results of these negotiations, that's why, well, wishful thinking is being passed off for now, and i think that russia will bargain to use this very moment of departure from the zaporozhye station, because it will be considered by the deep russian people how another loss, so russia will want to get something in return for withdrawing troops and creating a security zone around the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, well

, it could be the launch of, for example, an ammonia pipeline there yes, in order to compensate for the losses from the oil embargo on the transportation of oil from the price ceiling, the established budget will begin to lose serious funds there, and in order to somehow compensate for these losses , they will insist. i think one of the directions is to supply ammonia. odessa in order to have additional profits and continue the war. that is why there is a negotiation process ahead. i still want to ask you about why this table is here. these are the ones in paris and there are also representatives of asia. why is it important for us? to enlist their support, and so far we hear that their rhetoric is that they wish us peace, but i hear the word victory and they say that everything in this war must be resolved politically by

diplomatic means, why is it important for us to convince them and sway them to our side because we we live in a global world and, in principle, we depend on each other and on each other, this uh, open economy, market water involves the distribution of international labor, and no matter how much you want it, it is impossible to isolate europe from the asia-pacific region look at what happened when europe refused to supply russian oil , there gas was reduced, where it came from, the flows were reoriented, the flows went precisely from asia , because russia transferred large volumes of oil and gas precisely to asia, and asia came forward first, filled its storages, and then she started reselling because she bought it at a discount in russia, she resold this fuel to the same europe already as her own, that is, she bought it in russia and then resold it to europe, this means that we are dependent on

each other, this is a single world market and without support if you want to carry out your policy, the europeans have set, for example, restrictions on the ceiling of oil sales, and if you do not have the support of a large number of countries in the asia-pacific region, then your restrictions will not lead to anything, they will not give results. this is the first moment, the second moment, and there is an image of ukraine, which is developing against the countries of the west, because before the war, they saw that little attention was paid to them, joint programs did not boost the economy as promised, investments did not so provided well, in general, many world problems were solved without them, now during the war, everything changed, the west and russia and the same china are competing for the south, the so-called developing countries for that asia, southeast asia, the asia-pacific region, precisely the countries that are

there are located and that is why their involvement in such forums is, you know, a dialogue, the beginning of a political dialogue with developing countries in order for them to be in the same shoes, let's say , an event that actually fights for the authoritarian camp of ukraine, but well, that's possible it would be taken as a joke if it wasn't a fact, you know that russia refused to sell oil to the european union at $60 per barrel and sells it to asia at $43, but it's a joke, but it's a fact, as you yourself pointed out, it can be a kind of bypass option, more precisely let's say that maintaining the budget replenishment but bypassing this ceiling and this new one, but china and india cannot buy more than they can, well , for their own needs, means to provide for themselves and they will sell further, as you yourself noted in this context in the ministry of finance repeatedly jonathan the head of the us treasury stated why in the 23rd

year we will more carefully monitor countries that help russia circumvent sanctions, there was talk of dual-use goods, production , etc., but this means sanctions on a third party, so to speak, in china, which depends on the american well, they are not afraid of the market. let 's say these processes. well, first of all, we need to divide china . there are state companies, oil refineries that buy oil, there are private companies, but private campaigns will most likely be held because they may fall under sanctions and lose some e-e sales markets, for example, for finished products there because e-e they buy oil and manufacture petroleum products and we trade in petroleum products, well, the united states as a global country can, in principle, limit these markets for them or make it more difficult for them all things and china uh yes china chinese factories will buy well state

-owned means this all but they will also buy at a discount what do the facts say in december chinese factories suspended the purchase of russian oil futures for the first quarter eh on the 23rd of the year, just waiting for a decision from europe j7 in the ceiling for the price ceiling for oil in order to understand what to push back from and what to ask for a discount, and if they previously asked for a 20% discount there, then after the ceiling was installed, they are now asking for 30-40% in in various cases, the price of fraction 1 increased, the price of insurance increased after the ceiling was installed, so there are consequences, but the west decided what is the task of keeping russian oil on the market so that it does not completely leave the market, but limiting russia's profits so that it cannot to use for war and in principle i think that they will eventually achieve this goal, here are the latest figures from bloomberg, he calculated, in particular

, the trend over the last week, er, since december 5, since the embargo and price ceiling restrictions on russian oil began to operate, russian oil companies increased export volumes by 16%. this is for a week by 16% compared to the previous week and exports to asia are a new record resolution actually thank you for this we will say goodbye ruslana osypenko political scientist diplomat was with us thank you termination shelling of the civilian infrastructure of ukraine will be discussed by french president manuel macron with putin macron will hold a telephone conversation when the agreement on the withdrawal of weapons from the territory of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant will be finalized, the work to compete continues, in addition, the french president noted that the sanctions have a strong enough effect on the cream 9

residents of the kherson region were injured as a result of russian strikes about this was reported in the regional military administration in kherson, the occupiers killed two people, six more people were wounded among the dead volunteer during the shelling, she helped people the enemy is attacking the city center for the second day in a row, in the morning they hit a critical infrastructure object, the russians struck 58 strikes along the border of the sumy region. this was reported in the regional military administration of the krasnopil community, the enemy shelled the krasnopil community twice with mortars, in total there were 43 attacks in the myropil area in the community, 15 enemy mines exploded on the outskirts of one of the border villages, in both cases without casualties or destruction, the russians are trying to capture bakhmut, but they courageously they are holding the defense there now, the situation at the front is the most difficult, this is not the first attempt to surround the city, but our military did not allow it to be done, the russians had huge losses, so they temporarily refused to
