sanctions against moscow in this direction, we need to strengthen diplomatic work, particularly in the nuclear industry, in the military, commercial and banking spheres, this was emphasized by the prime minister of ukraine, denys shmyhal, during the conference of ukrainian ambassadors in kyiv, while according to him, personal sanctions and confiscation of assets remain a priority also an important spectrum of work of diplomats, strengthening ukraine's internal capacity in terms of macro-financial support, attracting aid for the energy sector , stimulating investments, promoting of ukrainian goods to world markets, let's remind dmytro vasylov, political consultant, mr. dmytro, with us since january 1, if we are talking about the overall burden or responsibility even of the russian federation for its crimes and aggression against ukraine, since january 1, japan begins to preside over the un security council and we understand what is there there are also controversial issues. if you say so diplomatically, yes, and in the matter of land and in the matter of how the russian

federation used to treat the japanese and how it is now in reality. what do you think we can expect in the new international year if you can say that japan is a representative of the western world, despite the fact that it is the first eastern country where the sun rises ah-ah, but eh, let's really remember. as you said, there is a land issue that worries the japanese and it is related, like many countries including ours, it is connected with russia, yes, it was smoked by the royal islands, and this is a really controversial issue that has not yet ended the war between japan and russia, although there are no hostilities between them, and that's why i think that japan will speak clearly uh, on the side of the western civilized world, which means ukraine will definitely help to fulfill the tasks that

j7 has set for itself and the big seven and nato and rammstein. well, we have 30 seconds. they are just now starting to talk about not excluding the russian federation, but suspending its membership in the soviet security council as a permanent member. so , this is finally the mechanism that we have been talking about for almost a year. i hope that this will really be one of the solutions, but in fact it will be fair for the united nations if it asks itself the question: where is russia located in the radbezion? the russian federation is a member of the united nations, we will officially accept the entire organization, so i think that it is necessary to radically ask questions and i hope that japan will join this radical and this radical questioning p dmytro thank you for joining our broadcast this morning the consultant was with us live further brief news

russia is spreading advised that ukraine is a corrupt state but if it was so ukraine long ago i overslept, remarked rozhkov, i will remind you that on december 20, the executive board of the imf drew up a monitoring program. with the involvement of the board of directors for ukraine, it is assumed that we will contribute to the stabilization of macroeconomic policy in ukraine, as well as the attraction of new donor support. yes, good morning and merry christmas, ivan, ah, mr. ivan, the year 2022 was definitely not easy, it was a very crisis year minus the 30% drop in gdp, but how do you think that this year, it seems that all our financial and economic institutions passed a kind of exam, and this is actually what we can say based on the results of this exam, you know

, the year was really difficult, and sometime in february, march, it seemed that the economy of ukraine was not on the verge of collapse. what kind of economic life in ukraine can be stopped, but now after 10 months of full-scale war, we can say that there was no terrible fall, you know. sometimes i look at countries in which the situation is much more stable, but whose economy suffered more this year than ukraine, and these are not some small countries, for example, our neighboring country, turkey, our neighbor on the black sea, so to speak, where inflation was 80%, i.e. ukraine, there was no such hard indicator. let's say this such problems in our own currency why because we still managed to get the situation, our partners helped significantly, that is, you know the numbers that i

have now, the ministry of finance just a few days ago made public that in our 30 billion dollars arrived, which were infusions into the budget of ukraine from our partners, that is, the european union and the united states of america and individual countries of the european union and financial institutions, that is, a lot of people actually helped in ukraine, even it would seem a little far from ukraine, such as the kingdom of saudi arabia arabia and the united arab emirates, they also became donors to our budget there, 400 million dollars. if i am not mistaken, saudi arabia gave 100 million dollars of the united arab emirates to ukraine, that is, in principle, this external aid, it helped, it contributed to the fact that ukraine also got the economy. it is not ideal, but it works. but please explain, indeed, inflation in ukraine this year is about 30% for next year, too, and we will

talk about 23 a little later, but also in many in european countries, even in scandinavian countries, inflation is also two-digit, that is, it consists of two digits. this is a big shock for them, including the fact that there is no war on their territory, why did this happen, but in fact, with turkey, i remembered some wrong decisions in the economy, so this the trend has been observed for several years, not only in 2022, so it is absolutely true, because there are indeed systemic problems in the economy that the country cannot fix, and this leads to the fact that the country continues to have what seems to me to be very significant inflation compared to european countries , here the situation is a little different here, first of all, the change of which models they had which one they had and here also the factor that they were too

dependent on russia for the supply of e-e, first of all gas, oil, and now when they change, they change the model, let's put it this way , also influenced the country that supplies them with gas, they are adjusting too much, and because of this they have such a decline, plus, you know, to a large extent in many countries in the economy. in the 20th year, a lot of countries, let's say, succumbed to spain and they started printing a lot of money and it seemed to them that this would save the economy, but as the course of events with the coronavirus showed, the impact was so significant and it turned out that the countries printed a lot of money and which, let's say, did not play the role they thought about, because the problems that she expected did not occur, but which

created too great a burden on their currencies. and this led to inflation, because a lot of money appeared that was not confirmed by anything, and that's how i feel the virus now, as far as we can see, is suffering the most in china , again due to the state policy of isolating the population and the lack of general immunity, let's now talk about the 23rd year with optimism, we look to the future and also on such a day, so the allocation in the european union will pay 18 billion euros to ukraine next year on a regular basis, the president of the european commission , ursula fundalyan, informed about this. this money will be paid to help with urgent repairs and to pave the way for recovery to the recovery that will put ukraine on the path to the eu. ukrainians are fighting bravely against the aggressor. we will never we will be able to match their sacrifice, but we help in all possible ways this year, we mobilized more than 19 billion euros to support ukraine,

mr. ivan, it is clear that these 18 billion necessary for our economy because it is a kind of crutch. yes, for our financial condition, but the ukrainians still cannot think about how we will return it, because these funds are not grant funds or there. perhaps some part of them is there a certain structure in these 18 billion what is the probability that all debts will be paid off with confiscated russian assets or funds provided as part of reparations ? here is such an interesting thing that the speech of our president before the congress was a project submitted by the biden administration on aid to ukraine in the amount of 37.7 billion dollars. after the speech of the president, the congress voted for this

aid, but the figure increased to 45 billion in relation to how much the congressmen evaluated the speech of our president, that is, they not only did they accept biden's proposal, they also increased it. that is, the role of words in history. as they say, and what is important, the president understood the importance of this visit, because at the meeting with the ambassadors that took place the day before, he also he just said that he does not have the opportunity to make international trips, but if it is extremely important for our victory, then he is ready to do it, absolutely true, indeed, we see the result, we see how much it helped, and this grant money emphasizes the united states. to return as far as the european union is concerned, these are indeed loans, these are loans that will have to be returned but again, several things are very important, first of all, the interest on these loans is assumed by the eu countries

ukraine will not pay interest on this loan, it is important that the second term is a loan, but they are different. but i found even for about 30 years. that is, it does not mean that in 5 or 10-20 years, to a large extent, all these loans as laursula fonderline correctly stated, they will be linked to the rebuild ukraine project, which was submitted by the european union on may 18, actually accepted, and what does it refer to? why are these loans granted in ukraine, but they are granted in order for the country to make reforms and, as they say, catch up according to the standards of the european union, this is an investment, including the european union , because we are already officially in the status of a candidate and in a few years we hope to join this alliance. thank you for the clarification . ivanus, an expert in international economics, was

with us. steadfastness we are proud of your bravery we bow to your courage we rejoice in your success we compare to your patience you stand you stand we are the fortress of bakhmut salty as blood iron like will as a child i always dreamed of meeting characters from the books, it seemed to me that they were all invented

and unattainable, everyone wrote about their strength, courage, courage, calling them warriors, those who are always on the side of truth and justice, on the side of freedom and independence, those who hold weapons in their hands so that their children never take them. they know how to fly and dream, they forget their own fears for our sake and for our future, warriors are not characters from books, real warriors are the armed forces for christmas, one wish, victory, the story of the

triumph of the ukrainian choir and the ukrainian song "ukrainian people's republic" actually didn't exist anymore, and she sang the success was simply huge, they came really excited, even in some kind of ecstasy. from the military front and the sculptural front, the documentary shchedryk against the russian peace today at 4:30 p.m. in marathon, the only news in the black sea is the enemy's ship group increased to 14 units, among them two surface and the same number

of underwater missile carriers, the operational command of the strait informs the south, the total caliber equipment can reach 24. be alert, ignore air alarm signals, serhiy bratchuk, the spokesman of the odessa military administration, is now in touch with us. i congratulate you glory to ukraine glory to the armed forces of ukraine speaking about what is happening now in the black sea equatorial region, once again we call on ukrainians not to live in anticipation of shelling because the russian federation is just trying to impose this fear on us, just be ready and watch what the enemy is doing. so, before that, what are the enemy ships doing now? well , unfortunately, they are still in the black sea equator, they really went on combat duty, we understand what is wrong there are already many missile carriers in the black sea fleet of the russian federation, nevertheless, the threat is real, the threat is not

tied to any date. this inclusion, therefore, it is absolutely true that we also call on the residents of odesa, odesa region , and all ukrainians to ignore the air warning signals, of course the enemy first of all pressures the psychological, the enemy is trying to show some of his good colors, but for now the muscles that he is ready to inflict such blows and of course, this experience of this war unfortunately shows that on the eve of the situation in kherson, the enemy is trying to destroy this very video of the population drinking on civilian infrastructure, of course, others are not excluded people are not anywhere, in particular the odesa region, we understand where the enemy will try to aim, what to do and deprive us of that light, that electricity, which is available today and in connection with this great holiday like christmas

, so the threat is really constant. now what are the stabilization emergency shutdowns, tell us what concerns ugu electricity and you, the most important thing is that today, although energy experts say more, it is really just stabilization shutdowns, but we are talking about the so-called test mode, that is, they look if they work out how it turns off or as early as next week, in the new week, they are talking about it, i emphasize once again, the energy industry . these days, however, the situation is under control because we know what to do and how to do it. well, the most important thing is still electricity, with the exception of emergency situations. returns to the residence of the resettlement and

residents of our region well, the main thing is that we did not just keep the critical infrastructure, but it withstood and will continue to fight in the same way, and further talking about the energy infrastructure, the relevant minister of energy recently announced that the reconstruction of the energy system of ukraine will take place according to the most modern standards . that in the future he sees the newest in the world. please tell me, is this already happening in odesa or is it unfortunately not possible yet? let me say it. yes, the fact that the approach is modern shows today is the battlefield the battlefield - this includes the battle for the energy infrastructure because we see that the whole lesson is here and this is the same front on which it is also important to stand and win, so of course we will not talk about the details today and we can't, we don't need it to do as regards the modern approaches of helping partners and allies, then odesa, which all of ukraine is already slowly

feeling, and after the victory of the peace, i think that it will feel and enough, you know, concise, clear. thank you, we want an explanation now. to odesa and all of ukraine, have a peaceful christmas day, sunday. thank you, serhii bratchuk, the spokesman for the vedic military administration, was with us in communication in ukraine. they launched a train to the residence of st. nicholas. he delivers gifts to children in the de-occupied territories and also entertains with theatrical action and songs. with dances and christmas carols, which is simply passed by a specially equipped carriage, how the iron residence set out on the road and how it was met in different regions was seen by our colleagues for the first time on the scoreboard of the central of the railway station, instead of points of departure and destination, there are only two words, st. nicholas, there is a whole the so-called iron residence of st. nicholas, because in addition to gifts, the holiday express carries a
