which task requires significant financial resources is also unknown, but they have somehow magically calculated that the cost of this hetman project of letters will amount to one and a half billion dollars, so moscow can be included in the list of difficult-to-renew losses as the proper and next professional trained army, a resource that is extremely difficult to restore and this resource russia is losing at an astonishing rate losses of the russian federation during the aggression against georgia amounted to 67 people syrian company 116 servicemen the first and second chechen wars 5.5 and 3,600 killed in 10 years 14 and a half thousand people died in the afghan war. and in 10 months of the russian-ukrainian war, there are already 100,000 russians. statistics are stubborn about that. let's calculate how much a soldier's life is worth in monetary terms to russia. let's start with ordinary

mobilized soldiers in the russian federation. only $500. because they were feeding, they gave two lyashka cartridges there, and he once shot them , and that was the end of his training, another thing. the so-called elite, special forces, radar operators, marines, paratroopers, all of these it is much more expensive to prepare a professional, it is necessary to have at least tens of thousands of dollars in order to fully provide the property with a program of training with equipment plus we remember that every russian soldier who has a loss in life must receive his family must receive according to the social payment, the authorities of the russian federation estimated the death of each occupier at $73,000, for 100,000 killed, it is necessary to pay 7 billion 300 million dollars, but there is another loss that is precisely measured not only in money, it is the final loss of reputation and any the influence of moscow in the civilized world, so the price

of aggression for putin and the russians continued impoverishment from the war of international sanctions, the lack of any prospects for many, many years, these were the facts of the week, subscribe to our youtube channel and comment on our stories, see you, you will find more interesting facts on our youtube channel facts of the week subscribe when the enemy cannot achieve results on the battlefield, he resorts to cynical attacks on civilians, the russian invaders want to exhaust us, break us and divide us for them this is the last chance but they didn't consider one in these dark times we are united like never

before all invented and unattainable, all 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 the sake of us and for the sake of our future, soldiers are not characters from books , they are real soldiers, they are the armed forces of ukraine, russian propaganda still wants to manipulate us, how not to be deceived , beware of emotional conflicts, for example , due to lack of electricity or language questions, excessive emotions, a sign of manipulation, the enemy provokes quarrels between ukrainians in order to sow aggression and despair, so putinism dreams of destroying ukraine from the inside. everything that catches your eye, don't believe enemy rumors, spread the truth, keep calm and

ukraine, the golden utility january is the traditional month for tariff changes, and now it's a particularly painful issue, utility services have often become just a luxury in view of the infrastructure destroyed by russian shelling. a number of decisions that tariffs for gas, heat, hot water , and electricity for the population will not change at least until spring. but cold water can become more expensive, the national commission has increased tariffs for local water utilities in the middle region by 10%, with the exception of the kharkiv mykolaiv and kherson regions, well, this decision is still being finalized, officials explain it by the rapid increase in the price

of electricity, we understand that it is now simply gold, what other news await us from the economic sphere, what will be the exchange rate of the dollar this year what will happen to prices and wages economic forecasts for 2023 collected by serhiy kostash a year of survival or an economic miracle what should ukrainians expect in 2023 war is a time when everyone is getting poorer so it should not be surprising that there will be a mushroom tariff, we will most likely need more money for the utility company than ukraine originally asked for. will the gasoline shortage happen again? the challenge is petroleum products that will start on february 5 and how permanent blockades will affect the price of excellent lard and almost not grown together. with experts, we made an economic forecast for the second war

year in ukraine hello everyone, this is serhiy kostish and facts of the week and now we will talk about economic expectations 2022 has become a record year according to the increase in prices for everything for three hostilities, inflation was simply crazy. and it seems that 2023 will be the same, but it is not quite so. is probably interested in the grocery basket, because nowadays ukrainians spend more than half of their income on food, in fact , you and i only pay for what we eat and spend a little on clothes, but what and why are they already offering us we are going on one from the walls of kyiv, the imbalance is visible to the naked eye, the paradox of the ukrainian economy, tangerines and persimmons are twice as cheap as tomatoes, and by the way , this is not the limit, even though we have not been to the supermarket yet. tomatoes for 120, cucumbers

for 100 are more expensive than even in europe, despite ukrainians have big problems with money this year, the sellers themselves explain it very simply because there is little, no local tomato , only imported imports are produced, it is more expensive for mandarins, now is the season, so there are more of them, so imported ones will be on the tables of ukrainians economist oleg penzin thinks more and more. the thing is that in ukraine now it is problematic to find some of these products. we will have them sometime in february . starting from february, there is already a shortage of almost the entire palette of vegetables , that is, we will already have egyptian potatoes . israeli potatoes will be unique this year. the thing is because you and i will not have cucumbers or tomatoes because well, we are also ukrainian, because cucumbers, tomatoes are ukrainian - this is electricity, this is a greenhouse in a greenhouse, electricity costs

. imagine how much cucumbers will cost and tomato, when the greenhouse works on a diesel generator, so even cucumbers with tomatoes will be produced for us, the hryvnia has depreciated by one and a half times, it will not be cheap, the importer always makes a currency risk in the price of the product, that is, you and i open the budget for the 23rd year so it is written in the average annual exchange rate 42 hryvnias per dollar or official is it the one that is now 36.6, that is, the importer says yes, which means that if such an increase in the exchange rate is planned, then i need to include the currency risk in the price, today you and i are buying a product that is already sitting there 42 43 hryvnias to the dollar, but it is not a fact that the dollar will grow this much , economist serhiy fursak doubts , at the moment we do not have an expectation of a fall in the national currency rate, there is currently no economic factor that would put pressure on the hryvnia reserves of the central bank, and the rhythm and adequacy of western aid

leads to that there is no pressure on the national currency, according to him from ukraine , and this should also stabilize the economy, which from the hryvnia the european union allocated to us next year 18 billion dollars in the united states provided in the budget support at the level of 13.7 billion dollars seems to be a guaranteed amount plus there is a program of the world bank, there will be a program most likely of the imf, there is money that will go from japan, there will no longer be problems with the european bureaucracy, because the support of ukraine is included in the budget and will go on a regular basis without additional debates, without additional problems, the same with money, which will be those of the united states , and money may not be enough, says financial analyst rick naiman, because due to the war and constant neglect, the country's needs only bolshoi realities will grow - more money than we initially asked for, ukraine will most likely need more money than ukraine initially asked for, including due to problems in energy, problems in

energy - these are lower taxes on business, you will understand, the grain harvest will be smaller, it is already being discussed that about 50 billion will be needed for ukraine, not 36-38 as predicted that one problem and another problem of the economy is the large unemployment that is planned. it is predicted and this is the large unemployment plus inflation can affect 20% population of ukraine, the problem will be that inflation will continue, although not at such a level, we expect inflation to slow down next year, so that it will be less than 20%. however, the level predicted by us, for example, 18, is quite high inflation is high, and therefore we really expect a decrease in the standard of living, and the fact is not even that prices will rise, simply closing them will be nothing for the 2023 budget in war conditions does not provide for any indexation of social benefits, everything will grow in the

same proportions but again, the budget we are looking at all indexation changes to inflation on the whole state, what does this mean, this means that real incomes will continue to fall. well, we soberly understand this, but is it really that bad? no, the positive points are, first of all, utility bills will hardly increase, tariffs for electricity and gas for the population will remain at the pre-war level at least until may, the only thing that is going up in price is electricity for business, although it is much cheaper than working on a generator, there is no significant increase in tariffs for business we are talking about the tariff for dispatching, which is only a component of the cost of electricity for business, and a component that is no more than 1/2%. because no matter what you do with

what is 1% of the tariff, especially the result we have, the final tariff, you will not see for ukrainians some products that slow down in price, because the demand for them has already decreased so much, no great lard and almost uncooked because, unlike it is necessary to store meat from root crops or vegetables. and this is problematic because people are getting poorer, they are buying less, and in the conditions after a blackout, it is problematic to store it, the sellers say that due to constant blackouts, the freezers do not work, because in order to earn something, you have to sell everything quickly, everything as it was, 170 uah, pulp, lard, 200 uah, 150 uah, more expensive, they will say, more expensive, you will put it, no one will buy it, it is not a brick it must be sold today, no one wants to cook meat, look, grandmothers are waiting for sausages because there is no light, that's all, there is no

light, there is no place to store, they take half a kilo of meat and that's the end of it, even though it's a holiday should be, besides, prices will not increase rapidly , and some vegetables will actually remain in place, cabbage, pumpkins, and root crops, they are stored for a long time, they are easy to prepare and cost a penny until the ukrainians become available in the summer, for example, a good alternative to imported vegetables can be root crops, potatoes for 15 radishes for 20 carrots for 30 even parsnip is relatively inexpensive, 50 hryvnias per kg, that is, for a kilogram of imported spanish tomatoes, you can get a whole set of ukrainian vegetables. it's cheap because it's hard to store in the cold, so many people buy them and turn them into juice, which is great for 12 hryvnias of apples and it's enough, as there are such

live ones, they need to think of a normal, tasty and good one, so come buy it, and also misha, which will be stable this year, this fuel is an expert on of the fuel market serhii klyun says that there will be no repeat of the story with a gasoline shortage ukraine has become completely independent from russia and belarus and 100% of the sources of supply for gasoline and diesel were russian in our country, it was destroyed , it was blocked, there was no such precedent anywhere in in the world. literally in 3-4 months, we built a new system that guarantees us fuel under almost any conditions. we have a unique and new transport system, but the price is another issue. in his words, even in the worst scenario for the hryvnia, such a jump as in the 22nd will not be every hryvnia exchange rate - it is 80 kopecks per

liter, that is, if plus 5 hryvnias plus 450 to these prices, the main thing experts say is to make it to the summer . there will also be electricity and gas less spend and finally vegetables from the gardens will be cheaper and tastier, people will sit in the victory garden, that is, it will be the same next year, an extremely large number of people will plant everything that can be planted and collect everything that can be collected, in a word, all the experts we interviewed are convinced that it will be difficult, but ukrainians will endure the blow will not be easy and inflation will also be serious, but it will probably not be necessary to tighten the straps at all and an alternative will always be found somehow serhii kostash ictv facts of the week only news the ukrainian air defense forces were very polite last year and therefore

received two more anti-aircraft missile systems from uncle sam under the christmas tree, this is plus two dozen launchers, that is, theoretically -20 russian missiles, the weapons are very cool and powerful, otherwise they would not have been placed to cover the white house but the real breakthrough was washington's decision to transfer patriot anti-aircraft missile complexes to ukraine, these anti-aircraft missiles are one of the most effective in the world and can kill tactical ballistic missiles with which russia is shelling and which is difficult to intercept by soviet air defense systems. it’s just wow and you don’t need to get too close. it’s enough to look at how russian propaganda comments on the news about petriv for ukraine and all these pompous statements of putin that are going to click something, but we already know when moscow makes such a showy face, it means the boots are good . take more but will he now explain why one of the most powerful anti-aircraft missile

complexes in the world is in service with the ukrainian air force, it means for the russians to prepare , what generation system will we get and how much there will be enough ammunition, the patriot will help repel the russian aviation, wherever they are, what part of the country will be under the dome for the first battalion, we will learn to integrate it there , and soon the legendary zrk patriot will appear in ukraine and close the sky from enemy missiles, what area will it be able to protect from shelling and whether will it affect the course of the war, let's figure it out, we are now promised two hams

the ability to hit targets at long distances, in particular ballistic missiles, such as russian scanders or daggers, or iranian warehouses, this the main advantage of petri, due to which our armed forces hunted for him, the battery of the complex consists of a radar station, a control point of a generator for autonomous power supply, and actually launchers of them from four to eight, depending on the modification, on each of them up to four guided surface-to-air missiles against aerodynamic targets or up to 16 of small anti-ballistic missiles if they give us the latest version of pak three i hope we get a combined version of the pak-3 complex that is, it is patriot pak 3 why i

i hope for a comprehensive option, because this option includes both missile missiles that are capable of hitting ballistic targets, ballistic missiles, the range of the patriot pact-3 on aerodynamic objects, once again, drones, cruise missiles, approximately 160 km, but the range is that we cover the front 320 km from 61 to 160 to the other side, but if we talk about ballistic targets, here the range reaches only about 40-60 km, but at such ranges patriot is able to detect and carry out effective targeting the ammunition of the patriot is capable of hitting aircraft with cruise missiles and ballistic missiles, as well as drones. but mini-drones like shokhidka will not take too small and

economically it is not profitable, the missiles are expensive , the cost of launching one is from three to four million dollars, the entire battery, together with ammunition, costs more than a billion. this is how it intercepts the target is against the last -generation pact-3 missile, it is aimed at the warhead of the enemy missile and detonates upon contact, the attacked object is completely destroyed in the air, the radar station radio electronic fingerprints of air targets, wild targets up to the tenth, then these data, this whole set of instructions, is transmitted to the point by the command post and distributed automatically by the empty installations of this complex, which intercept the missiles, the drawback of this anti-aircraft missile complex is the dependence on the satellite in orbit, which must transmit in advance the coordinates of the enemy missile and the trajectory of its flight to the

radar station works effectively for populist missiles only when it tracks this launch from a satellite, i.e. that is, they have a direct connection and together with and this was also one of the moments that restrained the supply to us a-a patriots why because the americans at the same time should give us a connection with their security with their satellite grouping of installations transported on trucks and trailers to deploy the battery is it possible in less than an hour, will this complex be enough to protect at least one megalopolis kyiv kharkiv kherson or maybe lviv and who will be lucky in the end i think it will be placed to protect some region where the most infrastructure facilities are now in our country

the most important thing is not the cities, it’s the infrastructure, because if the infrastructure is destroyed, it will be very difficult for the cities. then all the heating will be electricity, which means medicine. it will not work to place launchers from one battery in different regions of ukraine, because they work as a single indivisible complex, explains the spokesman of the air force command, yuriy ignat, well , they definitely have be located on the same section of the front so as to work with the interaction of the taxi with the command post with the radar, it is possible with other means, such as taking those sections where the benefit of the dome will be the greatest. let it be a surprise for the enemy. the higher military leadership makes a decision. where is this system most needed and which cities or important strategic directions will be

blocked? first of all, the patriot will help drive away russian aviation where it was not located, which may be approaching our borders, drive it away . we are talking about tactical aviation and also the same given bombers, in order to close the sky over the whole of ukraine, at least 10 such batteries are needed, while this number is not known it is said, but cover the west of ukraine, our neighbors are quite capable, military aviation expert valery romanenko believes, by sharing his air defense system with us. 160 km yes lviv region means uh lutsk so there are still nearby

areas they can be covered and there are also electrical stations and large substations this is just the beginning the key which opens the door to provide ukraine with other such systems and one more important point even one patriot combat unit can become an important element of complex air defense in combo with western systems already supplied to us on sams and airrest msi which are the main means against e-e ballistic missiles means the means of defeating this complex they are trying it they are trying to make such that it could be launched by e-e according to the information from the complex on sams, that is, if we receive a certain number of these missiles, we can also those complexes that we have on sams. we

received two divisions of these e-e two of these complexes, yes, we may be able to add some to them, which means launchers from these patriots, and more troops, the possibility of combining western anti-missile weapons with post-soviet ones, despite different work algorithms, they can work in a single system, this is a very difficult task, but we are solving it and judging by the experience of our military, who are already using these complexes, they are active in a single system . visibly angry in her speech, the bunker

is visibly nervous and threatens to destroy the installations , they can stand there, well, let them stand, then we are patriots, there are enough of them. the old system and uh , it does not work. head western weapons are old and ineffective, russian modern and invincible eyelash on freedom is slavery well, it continued to tear that we were just being dragged now, but to the point, they are almost the same age as both missile defense complexes were developed in the 70s of the last century, and in fact they are similar in terms of characteristics, only the patriot has been improved all these years, the as 300 has been improved almost to the existing complex , it was developed in the distant soviet union and it was manufactured, and nothing in principle

will change since that time, if you don’t modernize it the only thing the russians went further, they made there s400 s300 is a powerful complex well, but comparing it with the modern petriv , it is clear that it is not quite even forward because, well, it is modern, it is completely different, it has completely different technology, newer technology a powerful radar, a powerful missile, this is the range of use, if the s300 is enough 75 km, then according to aero gm dynamic goals, the patriot complex can work at a distance of up to 150 km, which is invulnerable to the s-300, in the end, the effectiveness of the american mirror will depend on the version that will be delivered to us and on the skill ukrainian military personnel who will be trained to work

with the complex over the course of several months. but ictv facts of the week - the only news, contrary to the kremlin's hopes, the beginning of the year in ukraine without severe frosts, and this saves a lot in conditions of damaged infrastructure it was only around christmas that the frost began to snowball. it is, of course, romantic, but in the conditions of war, the most important thing is to get through this difficult winter, who knows what she has in store for us. by the way, do you know that today, january 8, the traditional period of holiday fortune-telling begins, which will last until january 13 and says that you can do fortune-telling these days with absolute peace of mind because the angels answer the questions well, i think that i can absolutely clearly predict what question the majority of ukrainians will ask, and i think the angels know the answer to it

serve in the armed forces, but no one canceled the astrological forecast, so these days we decided to turn to astrologers and numerologists and ask them what the stars tell them about the year 2023. valeria chernenko found those, are there any predictions that hit the top ten , a year of unexpected turns, fasten your seat belts , everything can go completely wrong what awaits ukraine and ukrainians in 2023, people will have exclusive prophecies of the polish nostradamus , this will be a new world order, what the stars foretell about the war in ukraine, about russia and the fate of putin, the month of march will really be a turning point and when the most cherished dream of each of us will finally come true, we met the new year and now you want to know what it will bring
