for example, a stream on youtube. then you can leave your comments. i will watch during the program and try to make guest comments if they are of course on the topic. well , subscribe to our youtube, send the link to your friends and family, let them also know about the main economic news yesterday we touched a little on this topic the national bank of ukraine called on international financial institutions to withdraw from the russian market today i will tell you more about it so the national bank publicly appealed to the management international banking groups with a call to implement their previous statements and exit the russian market, such appeals were addressed to the banks raiffeisen bank , internet inteza, paula otp bank and amg bank and credit- credit agricole previously national bank turned to them non-public, but recently information about the provision by some

foreign banks, preferential lending conditions for the participants of the so-called special military operation, i.e. for the russian military, this forced the national bank of ukraine to make a public statement in in lviv, a free tailoring course was completed. most of the graduates are refugees from war zones. the training helped people learn new skills. let's see how it all happened. let's see on our broadcast. every day for four months, they learned to sew , crochet and model clothes. now 24 graduates have received certificates. which testify to their professional achievements, the selection for tailoring courses was attended by those candidates who had the greatest motivation to acquire knowledge , therefore, there are many vacancies on the labor market and we still need employees who will

have certain skills, so our graduates, i think, will not have problems finding a job. the training for the participants is free, because the funding was taken over by foreign partners together with the non-governmental organization all-ukrainian democratic forum. one of these groups studied for support of our project shelter friendly lviv in partnership with the german and another group also studied with the support of our polish rooms, most of the future seamstresses are women who came from the occupied territories of ukraine and she has those who realize their old dreams or try themselves in a new profession, there were 80% of 24 people, uh, it was 20 people from vpu or completed the course and who reached the end, for them it must be during the time

of intensive training of dressmakers, they mastered the basics of sewing and fashion and also for entrepreneurship in order to be able to start their own business. in addition , the participants did not beat themselves up with practice and created the first samples of clothing. this is all my sports girl. this is the prototype of a skirt for a costume for oriental dances. in principle, she learned to make this thanks to the courses. that's right the courses gave me a basis for how to construct it and how to sew it together. i am very satisfied that i managed to pass this course. here i am now with a product that i myself created with my own hands. i think that i will continue in the same direction. the organizers plan to open a set on the third course of the tailoring course. in february, it will be announced on the social networks of the shelter friendly lviv project, and

anyone who wants to can register on the website of the city institute. kateryna oliynyk vadim shyshmatskyi for the espresso tv channel. of economic research and political consulting. i congratulate igor. congratulations. i have n't seen you in a long time. it seems that this is the first broadcast of this year. traditionally, we meet on thursdays. this year, economic growth will slow down, and in particular, the world bank says that the forecast is unfavorable and may lead the world economy to a recession , and the global gdp in 2023 will grow by only 1.7%. that's about half as much it was predicted half a year ago, what is a world recession or does it threaten

ukraine in some way? what practical consequences can this have for ukrainians? congratulations, i want to say that a recession means a slowdown in economic growth, that is, there is economic growth, but it is happening at a low rate. well, low rates of economic growth are the problem of the economy, that is, we have less resources for investment, we have less resources for our development, and in principle it is considered very dangerous, as they say today of economic development, the question of the causes of recession usually arises, and today there are actually two reasons. the first reason is the war. the ukrainian economy is not very good. well, i would say that it is powerful on a global scale. but nevertheless, the consequences of the war are the rise in prices. on the energy carrier e-e during the first half of 2022, the increase in prices for e-e grain crops e-e and many other

reasons are directly related to the war and is one of these consequences that we have today in it and the consequence about which we forgotten in the 20-21st year, the world economy experienced covid restrictions, covid restrictions also led to a certain recession in 2022, and let's be honest about the fact that the world has not recovered from this recession, in order to overcome covid 19 in the economic sense, countries launched very large-scale programs help to the national economy well , i will not actually say this in print, but the economy is saturated with money, and after that, in order to overcome the infectious tendencies, countries began to implement a strict monetary policy , to raise interest rates in order to to take some money out of the economy and this very delicate situation arose on the one hand we take money out of the economy to support the household so that they do not suffer from inflation and on the other hand the tighter

the policy of the central banks the more expensive the money is and the more expensive the money is less investment in a very difficult situation. well, what makes it dangerous today is that it is obvious that for the first time since 1931, the period of the so-called great recession, we will have a recession, two recessions almost in a row almost in a row for a whole decade , this is the new economic reality that the world is facing today. it is actually an eternal problem. and we know that governments always advocate for lower rates on loans, for business to develop, for more money to be in the economy , and the national bank, which monitors the central banks throughout the country, in all the countries that monitor the rise in prices, they are trying to stop this process, and there are constant conflicts here, but it seems that this time it is such a global problem that is developing at the same time, it is synchronous in all countries and not in some country separately. as for the economic

troubles that have happened, we know that the big economy is not okay in russia due to the sanctions imposed on it due to aggression against ukraine, well, in particular, the so-called price ceiling, the price ceiling for russian oil, bloomberg yesterday i wrote that these restrictions cost the kremlin 160 million euros every day, in fact, every day, while the lost income will increase even more to 280 million dollars a day when the restrictions are extended not only to oil, but also on petroleum products from february 5th, this should happen, is this already a sufficient blow to the russian economy, have we destroyed it for good, or is there still work to be done? you can

turn it on or off today for tomorrow, and this just in principle confirms what you and i talked about at the beginning, at the beginning of the armed aggression of the russian federation against ukraine, a certain critical mass is being gathered against ukraine, and if we say in 2022 the russian federation expected specialists of its budget to date, according to anton selo nova , minister of finance, in 2022, the russian federation already has already has a deficit of two and three tenths of percent. that is, this indicates that although the sanctions are working slowly, they are still are working and this is, so to speak, the problems that the russian federation is facing. well, i want to say right away that approximately the same deficit is already expected in 2023 . it is very interesting that they have set lower indicators from the budgets of 2023, both in terms of income and

expenses, so i think that the economic situation in the russian federation will worsen with time, and further. and here we must also clearly understand that these processes are caused by two groups of entrants. external factors, all those restrictions, all those problems that the russian federation is experiencing today in connection with the sanctions packages , they are definitely working, and on the other hand, the russian federation also has internal problems and these problems, you know, were to some extent compensated by high export revenues, including from the sale of energy carriers on the world market, but the structural problems were not solved for years, and now there is such a combination of internal and external problems. these are really difficult times for the russian economy. i hope that they will be even more difficult and in the 10th package of sanctions that the european union is preparing, there will

be its restrictions on nuclear energy, as they say about it, although europeans in every way resist this, because they say that what rosatom is doing this in ukraine. it's one thing that rosatom invests in the construction of nuclear power plants in some countries of the world. it's another thing. what's actually wrong, of course, is energy, too. let 's talk last year. this was actually the main topic of the year. missile attacks on ukrainian infrastructure and the energy sector even led to to the macro effects, that is, to the greater slowdown of the ukrainian economy, the biggest drop, but at the beginning of this year , a small import of e-e electricity from europe has already started. ukraine usually sold electricity to europe. well, now forced to purchase at the same time the price volumes are small plus the weather has already changed and we are

forced to spend more electricity to heat our homes where will the balance be or will we be able to survive this winter without blackouts well i want to say right away that unfortunately without blackouts we will not be able to survive the winter and the question even not only in imports, but in the fact that we have extremely high needs for electrical energy, at the same time, there are various estimates, but from 20 to 30%, uh, we simply lack energy opportunities, that is, it is extremely large indicator and in addition, i would like to remind our listeners and viewers that on february 23, just before the russian invasion, ukraine began a test mode disconnection of the ukrainian power system from the combined power systems of ukraine, russia, and belarus. test somewhere for about two weeks and then gradually disconnect from these systems already in

2023, the war changed everything and actually already in march, somewhere in the second half of march 2022 year, we separated from the system from the joint system with the russian federation and the republic of belarus and fully entered the corresponding energy system of the european union, and this is just a very big such suuf eh well, it is really a fundamental trial of the development of our electric power industry when we are already actually part of the electric network of the european union and this gives us the opportunity to import precisely the appropriate amounts of energy that we are talking about. that is, we are ready to do it and technically and ready to do it well, of course, and economically at least remind the audience that you can ask your question if you watch our stream on youtube and now i see only political battles in the comments, you don't ask anything about the economy, but you only argue, don't do that, let's make the discussion more intellectual, i'll have time to ask your question to a guest. meanwhile, we will continue

to talk about ukrainian affairs and so the chairman of the tax committee of the verkhovna rada, danyla hetmantsev, again raised the topic of the need to change the tax system, to cancel the so-called salary fops, that is, situations when natural persons-entrepreneurs receive money from the employer, not from the client and from the employer, and in this way tax payments arise as salaried employees, true. he adds that this system should be changed already after the war, well, first of all, do you agree with mr. hetmanets in principle that this system should be changed, and secondly isn't it treason to talk about these things now if we are going to do the reform only after the war, i will start with the last question. i think that despite all the problems we are facing today, you

still have a discussion about our post-war budgetary and financial system. that is we cannot wait and it is clear that when we are preparing for reconstruction, i think we will win in this too. we are in space, i don't just think, i am 100% sure of it. we must be ready for post-war reconstruction or war reconstruction - these are technical things. that is, it is the reconstruction of our destroyed physical assets, bridges, energy structures, enterprises, schools, etc. and so on and so on, but at the same time, these are also economic reforms political reforms demanded of us by our partners are demanded by our candidacy for membership in the european union. therefore, this issue is absolutely legal and correct. what should be said about it now regarding the simplified system of taxation of fops, well, this is not a new topic, and already from the moment of the introduction of the simpler topic of taxation, conversations began about how to make it so that on the one hand was supported, stimulated the development of small well

, and to some extent medium-sized businesses, but at the same time did not violate the basic fundamentals and principles of the functioning of the tax system as such, the principles of social justice, some pay quite high taxes well, compared to those who work on the integration of the system are not paid, and there are really many issues here, we entered into discussions with the world bank, first of all, with the international monetary fund. spheres of activity. i think that this is an absolutely normal process, so i think that it needs a certain reform, but at the same time, we must also look not only at the simplified taxation system itself, but also look at the tax reform a little more broadly , this is a strategic issue, first of all , the management of the budget, the budget, this is a tax issue, this is also a very big problem. well , of course, we must look at it in the context of our reconstruction, why. because the

reconstruction will not be done exclusively at the expense of foreign funds we also have to invest our own funds, and here comes the question of budget revenues, so i think that changes here are inevitable, whatever they will be. well, this is already the topic of a separate conversation. touch on this topic. we started a program with it today. and i will ask you the same question. the national bank of ukraine called on the management of international banking groups to exit the russian market. bank, will this call work, how loud is the voice of the national bank of ukraine today, will it be able to influence international structures so that they give up their profits on the russian market, well, you know, there are two situations here and duality because these banks that work in

ukraine work absolutely in accordance with ukrainian legislation, they are large taxpayers and they actually ensure what is called the stability of the ukrainian banking system, that is, if you know banks from the ukrainian market today, i, the national bank, urge them not to come from our market get out of russian yes, i understand yes, but on the other hand, so to speak, these banks work as groups, that is, there is a separate bank that works for the russian federation, in brazil, in other countries of the world, and so on i think that this call will still be heard, but it is clear that it will not be only a reaction to the call to exclude the ukrainian national bank, this call is addressed to the relevant regulators and governments of the countries, first of all, so that they carry out some such things, i think that this call will work when , to some extent, the european union and other countries adjust their sanctions policy , that is, how to make sure that some banks do not continue to work there, although on the other hand

, there is probably such a dichotomy on the one hand, they work there, they pay taxes there, but nevertheless, so to speak, they pay taxes not only there , but also the money is transferred to the parent company, from where the money goes to ukraine again , but i think that during the war, moral and ethical principles, principles first all the fight against the enemy they have to work even to the detriment of economic expectations, so i fully support this kind of calls and obviously, this should become one of the next steps in limiting the russian federation's ability to work as a world bank financial system thank you, mr. igor, with you was igor brokovsky, the head of the institute of economic research and political consultations, and i, andriy yanitsky, the host of the economic news program on the

is often included in us now. 200 m from the muscovites and their trusty four-wheeled pickup truck was crushed by a tank. that's how we collect money for a new car for the boys. because they have to drive here and there, it's very wintery there now -17-18. they just said that it's winter . fend off attacks, well, in a word, it's not easy, let's throw in a little money, i'll remind you that i tried, for example, it is possible to drop money from support, if you don't have any free ones, then you can calmly allocate 1,000 something. i believe that we can calmly let's collect it for the car, it works for us, and what should we do, well, just now, the situation there is very difficult. you know, both in bahmut and in kreminny, in the same word, in donbas, gentlemen, i also wanted to say that all the guys without exception complained about to the cold, to the frost, to the fact that

frostbite happens here. well, muscovites, in general, freeze to death there, even all kinds of shmobikes, well, they are not sorry, you know, if they were, well , very much, well, what to do with our boys who sit, for example, for hours, sometimes just there, the thermal imagers at night look those groups the wagnerites who attack there at night, well, it is very difficult. what to do about it? yesterday i read butusov wrote that it turned out that they were not ready , there were no heaters, there are no heaters. well, that is , the ministry of defense did not prepare for the onset of frost, winter came, it was not closed, as tusov said. and here we have oksana korchynska i remember that about three months ago, they warned that it was necessary to collect eye warmers and chemical warmers in order not to be in the situation that i am now, ms. oksana korchynska , is already in touch with us. good morning, ms. oksano

, how common are frostbite eyes, how much does it also weaken our army , because i understand that people from the front line after frostbite end up in the hospital. yes , of course, every day, the boys of our defenders are brought to us with frostbite, and they are responsible it's a little easier because we're a little further south, but it's still -13, and let's not forget that's where it's most difficult for our brothers and sisters right now, it's solidar, it's uh, under bakhmut there -17 and they first of all need help, that is, i really. unfortunately, the state was not prepared, it is perfect, we are constantly looking for old people , our medical centers. advertising

, i don't know socks or something else, it's like that, that's what war looks like at -18 and it's a very common phenomenon, military doctors say about it, continue ms. oksana, because every day such soldiers are brought to us, the point became and and uh thank god everyone is doing well, now we don’t have any amputations from frostbite, we all managed to resuscitate them and send them to the accounting centers eh, i repeat once again that the soldiers really need heating eh linings in their shoes it is extremely productive, they keep warm from 6 to 12 hours, we also used them in the ato of the ffs and at this time, when there will be avdiivka and now, well, only volunteers provide this, and that is why our soldiers need warm clothes precisely because of our armed responsibility with winter clothes.

thank god, they issued, including territorial ones communities have helped a lot, but everything related to specialized things, everything related to burgs and how to wash their first aid stations, we use such installations, gas , heaters, which can see 60-70 square meters, we bury them in the ground, we have already found a system like to make the gas cylinders uh, they are gas cylinders in this vodka, they are for our stabilization points so that our fighters are warm when they get to us, because it is extremely important, they come with bleeding and that is why we are asking for help but first of all, let me say once again that no matter how difficult it is for us right now, it is not easy for everyone on our lines. we also had a difficult night and our dugouts were fired at by rockets. we have losses

. because it is a missile attack and unfortunately they fall into the dugouts and they are smashed and that's why, but in any case, all our prayers for the ukrainians now should be for our defenders of solidarity and bahmut - this is extremely important because when someone says that no prayers they help this is not true and we at the stabilization points here constantly see miracles here we have during this week, there were several wounded where in bullet fights there were bullets stuck in one's jaws and even it was this is not funny to us on the one hand, but when he repeated to the other wounded, i lost two teeth, we take an x-ray and he has a bullet, these two teeth fell out, the bullet got stuck but did not go through the head, this is the level of a miracle - this is when a 7.62 bullet got stuck in our family in the upper part and did not penetrate me
