in a three-layer greenhouse, the technology is proprietary and built according to our own project, the temperature even in severe frosts remains at the level of 20° above zero, this technology allows you to increase the yield of all crops by 2.5 times , pay for heating 15 times less, whatever they heat you 15 times less you heat, that is, the boiler works even at 30° frost only 3 hours a day, but in ordinary greenhouses it is 24 hours a day even at zero, you can see exotic fruits with your own eyes, the farmer offers everyone who wants tours of his greenhouses if you like the plant, you can buy it at home. before the full-scale war, the man grew up to 40,000 seedlings and began to implement not just projects. and business seedlings, you see here seedlings of various citrus, lemon, pineapple , banana, and so on crops that people can

grow indoors. in winter gardens, a farmer spends only 10,000 hryvnias per year on such a greenhouse, he does not admit how much a man earns, but he counts his profits in us dollars dmytro didora oleksandr burlevych news on espresso this was the last today's news release, i will say goodbye to you, and finally, from the newsroom, espresso congratulates all basilians on st. basil's day, cinema, television, port, music, education, free people have a choice, choose what you want on megogo, the war raised its head again in europe,

of fashion 2022 was marked by russia's invasion of ukraine, which led to an energy and inflationary crisis, as well as constant disruptions in global supply chains today we look at 2023 together with ian brenmer, president and founder of the eurasia group, which has just published its annual ranking of the biggest geopolitical and economic risks, leads the list, russia, exile, which continues its attacks on ukraine, is followed by all dolphin , weapons of mass destruction, inflationary shock waves, and iran, which rounds out the top five thank you who joined us, no wonder you identified russia as the number one risk in the coming year, tell us about it, if you look at these 5 points, four of them are very similar aging dictators and technocrats progressive panchenko is actually a whole group

of people who make very destructive decisions without expert evaluation and without a system of checks and balances on their power and then is the most dangerous of this group precisely because as of february of last year he made the biggest miscalculation of all the great leaders on the world stage now he and his country are paying for it and there is no way back to the status quo there is no way even during the caribbean crisis when we were threatened with armageddon both sides had the opportunity to calm down and then get back to fighting business as usual is impossible now for russia because europe has already given up its energy carriers there is no way back nato is expanding ukraine will have the most combat-capable army in europe with all this putin can do nothing so what we see in 2023 is the probability of russian escalation of a

selective war against itself nato next on your list is a leader who shares some of these characteristics in his unprecedented power all xinping is being confirmed for an unprecedented third term as china's leader recently he even stepped back from some strict restrictions on covids, can 2023 be something like a turning point for china's position in the world, because of course the chinese have the second largest economy, it is definitely the most technologically developed country after the united states. who does not deny this, but not the certainty and risk that come with such a powerful country due to the fact that it is managed in a rather capricious way by one person who does not listen to the technocrats or experts who surround him, he will also get rid of most of them by consolidating power for his third term, we

we see the sudden growth and incidence of covid we also saw that some of the regulations that he introduced for his own technology sector took one trillion dollars from the market capitalization of the chinese market from you a corporation from europe or from the usa that has a great influence on the chinese market you can not help but worry about this the state of affairs, because a certain separation is created that goes beyond the rules and regulations implemented by the american administration, this is the main factor of the global recession, which, as we know looming how bad things will get the situation in this regard is not permanent as we already see that some high levels of inflation are decreasing somewhat in the us and in some european countries but it will be with us throughout this year its impact will be especially felt in emerging markets for

countries that have a lot of debt, the population there is angry because they have suffered from covids, and now from the increase in prices due to the war between russia and ukraine, they do not have the fiscal space to satisfy this population, as, say, in france or the us this leads to much more instability on the ground in these countries and can cause a financial crisis in many developing countries in many developing markets around the world in 2023 these things happen very slowly and therefore happen suddenly for many unexpectedly the idea that you can suddenly get huge capital for example from emerging markets in a broader sense through safer assets does not seem quite realistic in this environment this year due to the inflationary shock and the war in ukraine is the sixth place on your list , the energy crisis is a special problem for european economies, how do you see europe's energy policy changing or adapting, and what place is left in it for

the green transition in the long term, the green transition is more effective because, of course, europeans are now in such a situation where they have to do everything possible and even the impossible, they have to be more efficient to get access to more redeemable fuel such as liquefied gas from the us germany just got its first direct delivery but they also need to move more towards investing in post carbon renewables all this is already happening so in 5-10 10 years europe will be in a better position due to the powerful shock caused by the russian invasion but in in the near term, of course, this means that your country will use more coal, that is, carbon emissions from europe and the world will increase, and this is of course a huge stress for the population and leads to the biggest problem with the deindustrialization of europe is that the production costs in europe are so high that many large corporations,

especially in countries like germany, are going to withdraw a significant part of production from the eu and bring it to the western hemisphere, say, to southeast asia, cheaper , and this is the biggest challenge that arises against the background of the energy crisis. of course, if we talk about europe, europeans can and want to pay much higher prices for liquefied gas, but what does this mean for countries that developing countries that do not have such access well , the same of course applies to food and fertilizers, this is a very serious problem in water risks and a lack of water, which becomes a permanent systemic problem and not just a short-term crisis that needs to be responded to, all this hits developing countries much harder especially this applies to the countries of africa south of the sahara and the middle east and finally the most important although this item is not included in the top five because we do not care so much about

developing countries although it should be about human development is what we see after 40 years of globalization that lifted people out of poverty and created a global middle class now actually everything is working in the opposite direction and more and more people are being driven into poverty even more people are starving more and more people are losing opportunities to get an education especially this applies to women and a country with a low level of income correspondence due to disruptions in supply chains due to the russian-ukrainian crisis, this ultimately hits the countries that are currently developing the hardest and of course they are indignant at rich countries that we call donor countries but in reality donors are of course the poorest countries that donate their resources their labor keeping not very much in return last year there was a huge advance in the field of artificial intelligence you actually used one of the artificial

intelligence programs to write the name of risk number three weapon of mass destruction is artificial intelligence a sphere that needs supervision artificial intelligence is a sphere in which a small number of people can not make decisions without any checks and balances and without proper inputs dan is something like risks from china and russia mainly this list is dominated by aging dictators and technological advances and it turns out that there is some overlap between these two groups so when it comes to my individual decisions about the future not only national security and how people should live, how we get information, how we consume, when we are controlled by artificial intelligence , generative artificial intelligence that can really act like a person in 2023, and articles will probably overcome bots with artificial intelligence , you and i will not be able to distinguish whether we are communicating in text form with a bot or with a person, these are things that can be used

for incredibly destructive purposes in the conditions of a brutal democracy, i said a brutal democracy and the united states, which once back in 1989 when did the berlin wall fall, when was the largest exporter of democrats in the world, even though it was not without hypocrisy, today the usa is the leading exporter of tools that destroy democracy, unintentionally, of course, but this is a direct by-product of current business models and this is a very serious risk for the world this year there are quite a lot of alarm signals and what good news can you greet us with at the beginning of the new year the very fact that the usa and other large democracies are not collapsing shows that they are much more stable than people think, we all accept putin or sydzipin once again, and still less because of trump or a bogeyman, and this is because there

are institutional safeguards that prevent them from doing crazy things and in the end or they are expelled or their term of office expires it is true regardless of whether it is about a developing democracy like brazil or about the falling states the european union is much stronger and more stable it has a stronger defense fiscal energy and medical policy in response to all these crises that we are talking about we say it is definitely nice that in the context of all the risks we are discussing there is a very strong call not to panic for those of us who are worried about our own political institutions and bremer thank you very much for joining us on the air today franz 24 thank you for watching us, don't forget you can listen to this and previous programs on our website or listen to podcasts you can also express yourself in the comments and ask questions on social networks before the

meeting see this week in the program judicial control with tatyana shustrova political proteges why the reform of the constitutional court was on the verge of explosion, this is under the guise of a 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, the parliament has decided the law that contradicts the recommendations of the venice commission and what happened to the judges of the constitutional court who were dismissed before the new year. congratulations, this is judicial control, and i am tetyana shustrova. the reform of the constitutional court is on the verge of collapse . an advisory group of experts that will

check all candidates for the position and the new law goes against the requirements of the european union, which ukraine promised to fulfill receiving the status of a candidate country for the eu, what next and whether we will continue the path of european integration, we will tell you in today's program, but first, to the news, the 19th 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 professionalism, impartiality and integrity yuliya bokova, judge of the economic court of donetsk region, alla kotelevets, judge of the kharkiv court of appeal, olga popikova, judge of the northern commercial court of appeal, oleksandr sasevich, judge of the lviv district administrative court and judge of the supreme court, hryhoriy

usyk . for almost a year, she has been out of authority due to the absence of a sick person. after the congress of military judges appointed new members of the council, they will become 15 . governing, we have to fulfill this task , the supreme court of ukraine has begun considering the cassation appeal against the sentence of former judges of the holosiiv district court of kyiv, andrii novak and oleksandr bilyk, who were sentenced to seven and a half and seven years of imprisonment, respectively, according to the version of the investigation of ex-judge novak, with the mediation of the former the judges of the same bilyk court received $8,000 in illegal profit for passing a decision in a civil

case, during a search of a novice, firearms and ammunition were found for which he did not have a license to marry valery finogeev yevhen fingaev was caught drunk driving again this is not the first time and not even the second time the permissible norm is 0.2 about zero a year ago the patrol police already stopped finogeev for drunk driving the dnipro district court of kyiv imposed on the judge's son was fined with the deprivation of the right to drive a vehicle for a year, but fingaev decided not to comply with the court decision and continued to drive the 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 was not subject to execution , larisa

rogach became the new head of the commercial court of cassation as part of the supreme court of ukraine for the next four years. at the meeting of judges, 22 out of 42 judges voted for her. cassation economic court of issues 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 with the system of auto-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, thereby 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 the panel chaired by

larisa rogach issued a decision that led to the allocation of land for the estate of yuriy ivanyushchenko known as mezhihirya 2, despite the fact that most of the land plots belong to to the lands of the nature reserve fund and, unfortunately, these are not all the questionable decisions of judge larisa rogach. the verkhovna rada passed a law on changing the selection process of judges of the constitutional court of ukraine. 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, this group must analyze each candidate for compliance with the criteria integrity and professional competence and this

should supposedly allow appointing worthy ones, but there is a significant point in the selection scheme, no participation of representatives of civil society is provided for, 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 accepted by the majority, the votes of international experts are not taken into account as a priority. therefore, the threat of political involvement does not disappear, and the judges of the constitutional court of ukraine will actually be able become only those who agree with the government, emphasizes the head of the de jure foundation mykhailo zhernakov, this means that no judge will go to the constitutional court if

political attitudes do not raise their hands for him. we needed that is, we need to establish an independent selection procedure we are establishing cementing the political appointment procedure not long before the adoption of the draft law on the competitive selection of judges three current officers of the constitutional court of themis resigned at the same time, iryna zavhorodnya, serhiy sas and igor sdelenko, all of them involved in scandals with dubious integrity. have increased, we will figure out what the threat is together with the experts, but first we will tell you what three former judges of the constitutional court remembered in their positions. serhii 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 one of the active members of the party yulia tymoshenko's homeland. as a judge of the constitutional court, he was remembered for his critical conclusions regarding zelenskyi's land reform. in 2020, he even addressed a statement to people's deputies in which he urged not to allow ukrainians to be deprived of their national wealth. ihor snidenko sat in the judge's chair like sas in march 2014. he was appointed by the verkhovna rada based on a 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 of the cancellation of responsibility for the illegal enrichment of officials, then the constitutional court, by its

decision, canceled the criminal responsibility for declaring false information and also blocked the work of the national agency for the prevention of corruption in the control of the wealth of civil servants and their punishment for lying in declarations 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 nazc recorded sdelenko's violation of anti-corruption legislation, he did not timely submit a notice of significant changes in property status, in particular, he did not timely indicate uah 330,000 of income, all three of them voted sdelenko's garden, zavhorodnya, they voted for the decision to cancel e declaration is actually illegal and absolutely unconstitutional .

judge sdelenko did not limit his responsibility for false data in the declarations to the evening almost immediately after the decision was made. the constitutional court sent a letter in french from the judge's official e-mail address to the official of the nazk who handed him the report on the commission of an offense related to corruption, and now athos said, wrapping himself in a cloak and putting on a hat, now that i have pulled out the viper's teeth from you, bite if you can, oleksandr dumas the three musketeers post script so thank you gentlemen and pass on my hello to mr. en and see this behavior of a judge with a hint of settling personal accounts in the code of judicial ethics and although currently judge ihor snydenko has retired, he can still sit down in the judge's chair again. we hope that in

this case his biography will be well researched and the members of the already reformed higher qualification commission of judges will give a fair assessment of his actions. novikov is meant and what now, viper, when i pulled out your teeth, try to bite me, that is, the honorable gentleman directly admitted to his work mail that he did it in order to nail down the authority to bury him to adopt some protocols that they had sent to him before that. that is, this is also a huge conflict of interests. yes, and he should be responsible for this. the judge of the constitutional court of ukraine, who decided to resign, iryna zavhorodnya, took 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 the decision of the constitutional court on the cancellation of criminal liability for lying in declarations and closing the register declarations and electronic declaration zagorodnya is a more interesting story because her powers only started in the 18th year and she would not have to leave her post for a long time. he is retired, but masterfully buys expensive real estate in the center of kyiv worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. two years ago , iryna zavhorodnya's husband bought 124 square meters in the center of the capital in the luxury residential complex novopecherskyi lipky. 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 from uah 14 million, according to the information of our colleagues, two years before that, in 2018, the husband of a judge bought such a 54 m² 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 serhiy zavhorodny’s income, according to the declaration of the judge’s wife, invested only 75,000 hryvnias per year from a pension fund in moscow in 2019 iryna zavhorodnya declared four million in salary, 120,000 uah and 2.8 million uah in cash , and another 3 million was allegedly donated by her

81 -year-old mother. and give those millions to relatives of judges , we can assume that in october 2020, iryna zavhorodnya was personally interested in the disruption of the anti-corruption reform, and the three are deprived of the right to check the declarations of officials 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. i think that is the case . according to the quota of the parliament. therefore, the parliament

should also appoint three new ones. experts emphasize the significant risks of such reshuffles of the constitutional court. 3 from the parliament, two according to 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 the appointment of judges is already a few months away
