4:30 pm
ever since the time of boris johnson, there was some initiative regarding a separate security union for three states, but one must understand that these security unions have real weight when they have real obligations, namely collective security, without this everything can turn into in the same and essentially british idea of a political european community, the first meeting was held in prague in november . of some mutual obligations, it will remain at the level of periodic clubs that meet and declare something. it should also be important, but it will not replace real security and security, and therefore, of course, the first priority in terms of security is joining nato, and before joining nato, than ending
4:31 pm
wars and the amount of nato is a list of security guarantees and it was just mentioned in yesterday's declaration of the lublin triangle, the security recommendations can be the security recommendations of the kyiv security agency, the so -called agreement developed by a group of international of experts and ukrainians, the yarmaka group once and for all. where it is written that the main guarantors of security are the powerful armed forces of ukraine, which have high-tech heavy weapons and their own defense-industrial complex, which provides these armed forces with ammunition, ammunition, amnesty, everything necessary, this is exactly what we saw during the war, our the main guarantors because this is something that depends only on us and therefore we understand that the process of joining nato is not fast and individual nato members first of all hungary can delay it or just like
4:32 pm
with the accession of sweden to finland, turkey is making guarantees. we need guarantees today and we need guarantees immediately after the victory in order to postpone the new one as far as possible or to make it impossible at all. thank you, mr. igor, for this extremely productive conversation . was working now in our live broadcast, we are going further 16 hours 31 minutes well, we have already noted in the previous inclusion how close the relations of ukraine with by some european neighbors, countries that support us, and in particular, because these countries opened their doors to a large number of ukrainians fleeing the war, but in poland, educational medical services for ukrainians are practically the same as for poles, for which we sincerely thank at the same time, in addition to exclusively sitting, let's say, on the help of the country that provided shelter, ukrainians are trying to find themselves and
4:33 pm
find work for themselves in order to earn and thus support the economy of the country in which they are now here, as a result of the war , this balance has changed, what have we lost, and what have we possibly gained, our friends in gendobogriz and the associated expert case.ua, ukraine is in touch with us, yevgeny, we congratulate you, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, i congratulate you. extremely important story, we understand that the departure of millions of our citizens to the european union and not only this is a tragedy both individually and economically, of course, we do not want to compare the two cases, so to speak. to our country because millions of people were forced to leave their homes as a result of the barbaric russian intervention, what can be said about this topic, yes, it is indeed a problem for
4:34 pm
the ukrainian economy and a long-term problem, it is not a problem. what kind of international aid we currently have, we fund it in principle more than half of the budget expenditures are either for the war or for social support, but over time we will need more people, more people so that the economy can grow not there by 4-5% per year, but at least by 7-8 and more as it is, it is necessary, and for this we need more people than there were at the beginning of a full-scale invasion, ideally we need at least 42-45 million, preferably 50 million so that, uh, we can maintain a combat-capable peacetime army of about 500-600 thousand people so that we can provide and that this large army does not harm our future sustainable economic growth, for this we need people and we need not only to return
4:35 pm
people from abroad, we also need to attract people from other countries , that is, to make ukraine a place where people from the middle east or from some other countries could feel free to work uhu well, we also had a lot of conversations with representatives of the labor emigration association of ukraine, who before the war remarked that, most likely , the portrait of an average ukrainian who has been working for the longest decades can really change in connection with that that well, for example, people from central asia can find themselves in our country, while many ukrainians are looking for happiness in the west, let's say according to the estimates of the european central bank from 25% 55% of ukrainian forced migrants settle or are actively looking for work in
4:36 pm
the recipient countries. we have already talked about what our country is losing, what needs to be done so that people return and work for the country. but let's now try to outline what our partner countries that accepted ukrainians in themselves or still? well, i don't know . more number of ukrainians are now. i'm sorry for the word, ballast on the economies of the countries where they ended up there. look in ukraine, these countries are our partners, our friends, they received very qualified, highly educated, even compared to their own people, and very hardworking in terms of productivity. that is, they receive what any country, in principle , any country in the world would like to receive. they received it absolutely free for them, that is, this social assistance that they give it pennies compared to what our citizens brought in ukraine,
4:37 pm
let's look at poland recently at the end of last year. quite such a cool, quite good study of the national bank came out where it is shown that those amounts of taxes and those amounts of taxes on consumption paid by ukrainians in poland or by ukrainians who migrated only to poland, they already these amounts of taxes paid by our people exceeded the amount of aid from poles to ukrainians and this was only the first year in other countries it will be this year, maybe next year, that is, in 1-2 years, the ukrainians who are there due to the fact that they work, consume, pay taxes on labor, taxes on consumption, they will already cover all the expenses of the payers there taxes on themselves and further it will start working only in a positive way with these countries, that is why we see that poland, the czech republic, words, they are already starting to
4:38 pm
adapt our fellow citizens to themselves little by little. what is what everyone dreams of a qualified , culturally and hard-working labor force that pays taxes, mr. yevgeny, well, we would like to ask you more about our ukrainian history , in particular, about the statement regarding the restriction of use of a single tax, how can it affect the situation, speaking of the history of this, i don’t understand how it is for me, so far it is not necessary to change somehow radical or even not radical and those tax norms that exist and were even changed during the time after the beginning of the invasion of russia why? because the economy has just disappeared to a new one. as they say, the equilibrium economist is listed where are the current tax rates, are there any tax benefits,
4:39 pm
but people are already building their businesses based on these figures. if we now radically change something, cancel it. but you can return it. the norms that were in place until february 25, this is again. it will rather add uncertainty to the economy and will have a bad effect on the pace of business recovery, or if it is like this, i will be there for a long time. you are welcome to say in your own words, it is just three words that are not at the right time. well, but this can also happen have you seen any possible research on the possible losses of our economy and in general how it can affect our macroeconomic situation on the one hand we understand that our economy is fed largely thanks to the support of our western partners on the other hand we understand that on the ground everything is functioning thanks to enterprising individuals, yes, that is, at very different levels, but it is still holding
4:40 pm
. and jevri, absolutely look at us, the budget expenses are now somewhere around 270-280 billion uah per month, this is together with military expenses , more than half of them, more than half, we provide now with our own taxes, that is, business works, entrepreneurs work, individual entrepreneurs work, ukrainians simply consume, and we, even during the war , can finance our social expenses because of the fact that the country works while fighting the economy is the question. what is the point of radically changing something now if it works, there are many studies now, but i would say that they are simple, they are difficult to evaluate because there is a huge uncertainty in the economy. we cannot predict what will happen tomorrow, how the war will develop so when exactly will our victory come? therefore, this is more of an
4:41 pm
assumption than forecasts or such thorough, serious research for today. and do you have a sense of how, for example, western aid can stabilize the macroeconomic situation? in particular, we are talking about specific tranches from the european union and the united states of america. i constantly have the feeling that we will still lack funds. this year, i am sure that we will have enough funds. they promise us and will give us more than we really need this year . to allow the printing of hryvnias in order to contain inflation , about 30,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
4:42 pm
than is our need. and what should we do to ensure that western support is the most effective ? let's do it. any investment, any lending, any economic development in ukraine is possible only under one main condition, and when the so-called high security risks will stop. that is, an open war on our territory in their own words, and what they can do to help us, first of all, is weapons, weapons that they do not give to ukraine, this is the best from my point of view as an economist , investment, investment in ukraine and investment which they pay off literally in a few years after the victory and economic growth will begin thank you, mr. yevgeny yevgeny to bogres, the associated expert case ukraine was in touch with us well, the delegates of the 19th extraordinary congress of judges of ukraine elected all eight members of the vrp according to the quota from the judicial community, we will talk about it a little later. well, before the word, judicial
4:43 pm
control with tetyana shurova, see this week's program judicial control with tetyana shurova, political proteges, why reform of the constitutional court was on the verge of an explosion , all under the guise of reform in the dependence of the constitutional court and a direct path to authoritarianism, will ukraine be able to maintain the status of a candidate for the eu? judicial control and me tetyana shustro's reform of the constitutional court on the brink of collapse the verkhovna rada of ukraine finally adopted a bill that changes the system of appointment of judges of the constitutional court of ukraine by a special advisory group of experts is being created, which will check all candidates for the position, and the adopted law goes against the requirements of the european union, which
4:44 pm
ukraine promised to fulfill by receiving the status of a candidate country for the eu, what will happen next ? the congress of judges of ukraine elected five members of the supreme council of justice, a key body of the judicial system that is responsible for the professionalism , impartiality and integrity of the entire judicial corps, to the following positions yuliya bokova, judge of the economic court of donetsk oblast, alla kotelevets, judge of the kharkiv court of appeal, olga popikova, judge of the northern economic court of appeal, oleksandr sasevich, judge of the lviv district administrative court and judge of the supreme court, hryhoriy usyk , have been appointed for four years. according to its quota, the supreme council of justice currently has
4:45 pm
only seven members out of 21 and has been inactive for almost a year due to the absence of eight judges after being appointed by the congress there will be 15 new members of the council. and this will finally allow us to resume the work of the body. this task is to restore the functioning of the highest body of judicial governance. we have to fulfill this task . half and seven years of imprisonment, respectively, according to the version of the investigation, ex-judge novak, through the mediation of the former judge of the same court bilyk, received 8 thousand dollars unlawful benefit for making a decision in a civil case, during a search of a novice , firearms and ammunition were found for which he did not have a permit, the son
4:46 pm
of the court of appeals of the kyiv region, valery finegaev, yevhen fingaev, was caught drunk driving again, this is not the first time and not even number 02 is admissible for the second time. a year ago, the patrol police already stopped finaleev for drunk driving, the dnipro district court of kyiv imposed a fine on the judge's son with the deprivation of the right to drive a vehicle for a year, however fingaiv decided not to comply with the court decision and continued to drive his car. in october, his lawyer appealed to the court to admit that the decision on the imposition of a fine and deprivation of the right to drive is not subject to enforcement by the new head of the commercial court of cassation as part of the supreme court of ukraine for the next four years, larisa rogach at the meeting of judges, 22 out of 42 judges voted for her. larisa rogach replaced judge
4:47 pm
bohdan lviv in this position, who was dismissed due to the presence of russian citizenship, however, before to the new head of the commercial court of cassation, no less than in 2017, the public council of integrity recognized rogach as not meeting the criteria of integrity, in particular , she probably at least tolerated or was even involved in the practice of interfering in the system of self-distribution of the court. larisa rogach was also a member of colleagues and judges who did not satisfy the cassation appeal of the kyiv city council, thus obliging it to enter into a lease agreement for a plot of land near st. sophia cathedral for the construction of a high-rise building, this construction threatened sofia in 2016, chaired by colleagues larisa rogach, issued a decision that led to the allocation of land for the estate of yuriy ivanyushchenko
4:48 pm
, known as mezhyhirya 2, despite the fact that most of the land plots belong to the lands of the nature reserve fund and, unfortunately, these are not all dubious decisions of the judge larisa rogach the verkhovna rada adopted the law on changing the process of selection of judges of the constitutional court of ukraine. the law creates an advisory group of experts. it will include six members, one from the verkhovna rada. of the president and the congress of judges of ukraine, one person from the venice commission and two persons delegated by international organizations that provide assistance to ukraine in reforms of the rule of law, the group must analyze each candidate for compliance with the criteria of integrity and professional competence, and this should supposedly allow appointing worthy ones, but there is an essential point the selection scheme does not
4:49 pm
provide for any participation of representatives of civil society, instead , representatives of the authorities continue to participate in the selection of judges. three of the six members of the commission are representatives of politics and the congress of judges, and the decision is taken by the majority, the votes of international experts are not considered as a priority. therefore, the threat of political involvement does not disappear, and only those who agree with the government will actually be able to become judges of the constitutional court of ukraine, emphasizes the head of the de jure foundation mykhailo zhernakov, this means that no judge will go to the constitutional court if they raise their hands for it, the political attitude will pass only those who are 100% satisfied with the political power and this is the opposite of what we needed that is, we need to establish an independent selection procedure, we are establishing and cementing the political
4:50 pm
appointment procedure not long ago and all of them resigned at the same time iryna zavhorodnya wrote statements serhii sas and igor sdelenko all of them are involved in scandals with questionable integrity it would seem that we can talk about cleansing of the judicial system, but no, now the risks of disruption of the reform of the constitutional court, even more so , and of the judicial reform in general, have significantly increased, what is the threat, we will figure it out together with experts, but first we will tell you what three former judges of the constitutional court remembered for their positions, this is serhiy sas. he came to the constitutional court in march 2014 in the wake of the revolution of dignity, before that he was a people's deputy and
4:51 pm
one of the active members of yulia tymoshenko's homeland party as a judge seas was remembered for his critical conclusions regarding land reform in 2020. in 2020, he even addressed a statement to the people's deputies in which he urged not to allow ukrainians to be deprived of their national wealth. the chair of judges of the sas in march 2014, he was appointed by the verkhovna rada based on the quota of the svoboda party, before that he worked at the institute of legislation of the verkhovna rada, sdelenko became famous in october 2020, he was the speaker in the case on the abolition of responsibility for the illegal enrichment of officials, then the constitutional court by the decision abolished the criminal liability of declaring false information and also blocked the work of the
4:52 pm
national agency for the prevention of corruption in the control of state assets employees and their punishment for lying in the declaration, and not explaining the acquired assets, it is not excluded that such a decision was supported by judge sdelenko for personal reasons. in 2019, the national administrative court recorded sdelenko's violation of anti-corruption legislation, he did not timely submit a notification of significant changes in the property status, in particular, he did not timely indicate uah 330,000 of income, all three of them voted for sdelenko zavhorodnya, they voted for the decision to cancel the declaration, it is actually illegal, absolutely unconstitutional , it is only the cancellation of the criminal responsibility for false data in declarations, judge sdelenko did not limit himself to the evening almost immediately after the decision of the
4:53 pm
constitutional court from the judge's official e-mail box to the address of the nazak official who handed him the report on the commission of an offense related to corruption , a letter arrived in french and now athos said, wrapping himself in cry and put on a hat now that i have pulled out the viper's teeth from you bite if you can alexandre dumas the three musketeers in script so thank you gentlemen and convey my greetings to mr. ente does it fit this behavior of the judge and with a hint of settling personal accounts in the code of judicial ethics , and even though currently judge ihor snidenko has retired, he can still sit down in the judge's chair again and we hope that in this case his biography will be well researched and members of the already reformed higher
4:54 pm
qualification the commission of judges will give a fair assessment of his actions, give it means congratulations to mr. en type p novikov is meant and what now, viper, when i pulled your teeth out, try to bite me, that is, the honorable gentleman directly admitted to his of his work mail that he did everything in order to nail down the authority to zacap on him to adopt some protocols that they sent him before that. that is, this is also a huge conflict of interests. yes, and he should be responsible for this. the third judge of the constitutional court of ukraine, who decided to leave upon the resignation of iryna zavhorodnya, she took up this position in 2018, before that she worked in the railway district court in october 2020. zavhorodnya also supported the cancellation of the anti-corruption reform and decision of the constitutional court on the abolition of criminal liability for lying in
4:55 pm
declarations and the closing of the register of declarations and electronic declarations blocks more an interesting story because her powers only began in the 18th year and she should not have left office for quite a long time, now she why was the resignation about iryna behind the garden? and there is a husband of a russian citizen. he is retired, but expertly buys expensive real estate in the center of kyiv worth hundreds of thousands of dollars two years ago, iryna's husband suburban bought 124 m² in the luxury residential complex novopecherski lypky in the center of the capital. the estimated cost of such an apartment without renovation is almost uah 13 million, the cost of an apartment of a similar area with renovation is from uah 14 million, according to the information of our colleagues, two years before that, in
4:56 pm
2018, the husband of a judge bought 54 square meters in lypki for an alleged price of uah 1,300,000 although nowadays the prices for similar apartments in the same building start from almost four million hryvnias, at that time the income of serhiy zavhorodnyi according to according to the judge's wife's declaration, it was only uah 75,000 per year from the pension fund in moscow in 2019, and iryna zavhorodnya declared uah 4 million in salary, uah 120,000 and uah 2.8 million in cash, and another 3 million allegedly donated by her 81-year-old mother, we do not stop being surprised as relatives judges manage to buy apartments at a price several times lower than the market price, accumulate millions
4:57 pm
with only a pension from their income and give those millions to relatives of the judges, we can assume that in october 2020, iryna zavhorodnya was personally interested in disrupting the anti-corruption reforms and deprived of the right to check the declarations of officials, three judges of the constitutional court with a dubious reputation, unknown origin of wealth and questions of integrity voluntarily resigned and allegedly made room for new and virtuous ones, yes, but not quite the impression . of those appointed under the parliament's quota, all three judges were appointed under the parliament's quota. therefore, the new three must also be appointed by the parliament, experts emphasize the significant risks of such
4:58 pm
of reshuffles of the constitutional court 3 from the parliament, two for the quota of the congress of judges, this means that according to the procedure that was just adopted, five more judges of the constitutional court are added to the five that the government already controls, and these are 10 judges from 18 that is, this is the majority of the constitutional court. at the moment, the government controls five judges of the constitutional court of ukraine, five seats are vacant today, experts stress that, taking into account the law on the appointment of judges adopted by the parliament, in a few months the government of ukraine will be able to to control already ten of the 18 officers of themis of the constitutional court, this means that through the constitutional court it will be possible to hold early elections, any changes to the constitution and any constitutional laws, to create any body in the last few months, ukraine has implemented judicial reform
4:59 pm
immediately a few steps back, against the background of the successful and loud liquidation of the scandalous district administrative court of kyiv, the parliament passed a law that contradicts the recommendations of the venice commission to the council of europe's highest body on issues of constitutional law and with the advice of the ambassadors of the g7 countries, this is no reform, no , this is not european integration, this is under the guise of reform in the dependence of the constitutional court and a direct path to authoritarianism, a consortium of ukrainian analytical centers and analysts conducted an analysis of ukraine's implementation of judicial reform, which is a key requirement for us to be accepted into the european union according to the conclusions of experts since the summer , the reform of the constitutional court is not the only eu criterion where ukraine has shown positive dynamics, however, the parliament passed a bill that contradicts to the demands of international partners
5:00 pm
, a number of public organizations once again pushed ukraine back on the way to the eu. they appealed to president volodymyr zelenskyi with an appeal to promise the law and send it for revision. it was all judicial control for me and i am tetyana shustrova. if you know the facts of corruption in the judicial system of ukraine or you want to tell about an unscrupulous judge , write to me on facebook or by e-mail the address of which you see on your screens , we will meet in exactly a week, for good
