replaced russia as the largest supplier of gas to italy well and now we will talk to our guests with a financial analyst, an investor of the icu group mykhailo demkivym and associate expert of the analytical center case ukraine yevhen dubogrez congratulate you good morning good morning so, on tuesday, january 24, the cabinet of ministers of ukraine appointed the supervisory board naftogaz is a large state-owned oil and gas company. if anyone in the audience does not know that the powers of the supervisory board were exercised by the cabinet itself, what is happening in the company? this is important news. evgeny , let's start with you. the company therefore needs to implement corporate governance practices there, at least in order to reduce corruption risks and risks of misuse of funds, risks

of unprofitability, that is why the supervisory board this is history, but in the short term, right now it is very important in general. it was the election of the approval of new members of the supervisory board . should have completed earlier, must complete by the end of january of this year, that is, there is less than a week left, and one of the five structural beacons has been completed. - this concerns the fiscal sphere, i.e. develop a concept so that there are no a-a arrears of revenues, that revenues to the budget are on time and that there is

adequate social assistance and the latest structural beacon - this is a national bank, together with the imf, must develop a methodology for assessing the quality of bank assets. the fact that we are already approaching the fulfillment of these structural beacons of fulfilling our obligations to the imf , and this will allow us to further count on a full-fledged program with the imf, that is, the program under which the imf will finance us and give us a loan and this is extremely important in view of the fact that we have large planned budget receipts this year from our international partners of about 308 billion dollars and a loan from the imf in general relations with the imf program with the imf this is extremely important in view of the fact that this is such an indicator that ukraine trusts the imf. that is

, it can be credited and financial assistance can be provided, and the election of this independent supervisory board of naftogaz is a big step towards the fact that we show that ukraine fulfills its obligations, that ukraine can be trusted we signed up, we fulfilled it, the next step is for you, mr. mykhailo. what is the current financial state of naftogaz of ukraine? i understand that these are difficult times for state-owned companies, that it is profitable and unprofitable, if we make a loss, how do we close this loss? well, it is worth saying that this is the entire reform of corporate governance at naftogaz. it has not yet started. it is a reform that has been going on for many years . it is going in a spiral way. last year, the company found itself in a situation where

the supervisory board was no longer working she was completely fired by the cabinet of ministers, she performed her functions, and the culmination of all this was the default of the naftogaz company in the summer. last year, in fact , a reboot is taking place. in principle, there is a step in order to be able to, er, not be able to work normally, be able to raise funds normally, that is, actually, uh, a grant from eber for about a million dollars, which was announced yesterday, uh, we need funds for the purchase of gas, a little earlier there was a plot about what uh mr. prime minister said that there is enough gas in the warehouses to get through this heating season, and indeed there is gas. and fortunately, the winter this time turned out to be not very

fierce, but it is necessary to purchase additional additional volumes of gas volumes for which it is necessary to attract funds, and in order to keep the funds, you need to show your good intentions. and here you need to understand that because of our nation's energy infrastructure, gas generation is growing . additional cool consumption in addition, the preparations for the heating season have already started long ago. i don't know if there will be intense military operations at that time. i hope not, but in any case, next winter will also be difficult, because it is unlikely that the infrastructure will return to the state it was before the great war and, accordingly, additional volumes of gas will be needed and for

this winter, we, the country, are already preparing. evgeny mentioned the international monetary fund. last year, we still received the main assistance from individual countries from the united states states from the countries of the european union, but the imf was somehow not there. for the first time, it was on the first line, yes, on the first line of our partners, and aid was provided. as far as i understand, it is actually in the amount that we returned it to the fund, that is, in addition. we did not receive anything , can we expect this year for loans from the international monetary fund and in general what is the state of our cooperation yes, i think this year we can count on funds from the international monetary fund but i will say an unpopular opinion, i believe that these funds in in the 23rd year, ukraine does not need uh, the fact is that, but cooperation with the imf is

necessary, the fact is that uh, western partners such as the european union and the united states, in principle, have already made such serious promises regarding financing the deficit of the budget of ukraine this year and in principle these funds are sufficient and the attraction of additional financing from the imf is, well, let's say so uncertain at the same time for the 24th year next year we have to think about there is no source of funding for it yet it is understandable that it would be more national for the ministry of finance to delay not taking money from the ministry of finance now, but to count on these funds in the next year, while the very cooperation with the imf in the implementation of all these mentioned beacons is a signal to the owners themselves donor countries that we are moving in the right

direction, that is, without such a kind of institution that checks the creditworthiness of ukraine , reliability and as a partner, but it costs. year of support of ukraine yes, this year we count on approximately 38 billion 40 billion, according to various estimates, from the usa and europe, not the same as in the past, these are our main creditors mr. yevgeny do we need money from the imf this year or do you agree with mr. mykhailo that it is possible to postpone this request to next year for 24 hours, i have to disagree, first of all, since last year, the imf did not help us, the imf did very significant things last year, considering their bureaucracy, and first of all, they gave us at the beginning the invasion of russia, the so-called rehearsal of finance. that is, this such a special program was previously not a special

program for trans for ukraine, which had not been issued before, and the second one, he generally reviewed his policies and procedures and created a completely new program for ukraine , the bart monitoring program, which is now in effect, which is now signed to us, there is no money there, but this is an indicator the fact that the imf is with ukraine, it really helps ukraine to attract other funds , to attract donations, help and financial support. consensus that ukraine should allocate money and at the same time these are loans and not grants . that is, this is what our partners perceive as the fact that ukraine will work and will work and will be able to give loans after victory, this is very expensive and should not and should not be refused because in our country we perceive such things. yes, the imf, and analysts also say that we don't need the imf, that's why we don't

need it now, no, the imf. we need it , and if they give money, let's take it, we need funds for everything and for recovery for future development well, actually this week the so-called financial rammstein, as the prime minister called it, pmorel, what kind of event is this, where will it be, how will it take place, is anything known now, can we only talk after the fact, yevgeny, let's continue with you i would say very briefly that for now it is just like a secretary and a constructive council . it is not yet known what will grow from this body, and maybe it will be something analogous to rammstein of the military, where governments are going to allocate aid , maybe it will be some kind of bureaucratic body which will, on the contrary, slow down this help and therefore it depends on us how we will proceed, how we will insist that this body works and what kind of help

we will need, that is, here now i think that the ball is on our side mr. mykhailo or there is a site where you work in the emergency department of the company, and you may be invited there to go to this financial rammstein, when the word rammstein was associated exclusively with music, now it is associated with such positive news types of e-e about providing ukraine with various kinds of armed effect accelerates the victory i hope this uh will spread to the financial as well and well, this financial meeting, unfortunately, there is not enough information yet, but what we should look at in the near future is what we should focus our attention on . what funds will be discussed here, we already mentioned today about uh 38 billion dollars approximately funding sums that i, in principle, have already been promised to ukraine for this year and that ukraine is counting on that, in principle, in a situation

where there is a constant negative, negative news flow , uncertainty, where do we have reason to speak there with some caution about the possibility of maintenance of the exchange rate is quite a long period of time about the growth of reserves about other positive things uh, that's why i would focus on whether it will actually be about this previously promised money or uh, i hope that it will be about some new projects of ukraine's partnerships, primarily with international ones by financial institutions by insurance insurers for some point projects, e.e., to restore infrastructure , this moment, e.e., will surely be a key one that will be worth paying attention to. well, the last topic for our discussion is literally three minutes we have left, so please be brief, tomorrow the national bank of ukraine will traditionally review the discount rate, this is actually

the value of money in the economy, and in this way the national bank of ukraine regulates inflation , that is, if credit funds become expensive , then, accordingly, it is not very convenient and not very pleasant to spend them and prices are growing more slowly , if i explained everything correctly, of course, mr. yevhen , you are a former employee of the national bank of ukraine. tell us some secrets , is it possible, will the rate be revised, or is it necessary officials cannot comment on it , but experts can

. at a faster pace than previously announced because previously the national bank had such intentions that the rate would remain at the level of 25% until the second quarter of the 24th year, now it looks like it will be accelerated because inflation in our country is lower with the economy and especially with in terms of international reserves, the situation there is somewhat better than the national bank expected in the summer, and when i changed the interest rate, the impression is that the national bank will lower the rate at a faster pace, or will it be right tomorrow , to be honest, i ventured to predict that no , now it is when we are in an active stage of negotiations with the imf. and when there is some uncertainty, the national bank seems to me that it will not revise the rate tomorrow. but maybe it will give some other e-e revisions.

in any case, there will be a very interesting briefing from the heads of the national bank, and i will add that we have invited the deputy chairman of the national bank of ukraine to all the broadcasts on friday. if he can join, of course, i will be glad to see him, mr. mykhailo, will there be good news , if so the rate will be revised, was it premature? i think it is premature , i don't expect a change in the rate, actually, according to the change in the reserves that yevgen said, there is such a possibility, this is an unpleasant moment for the banks , because of such a decision, they will become less earn money for them will be an incentive to invest more in the public sector at auctions, well, that is, to borrow more from the government, and for the rest of the citizens, this is probably a positive step, because it means that the printing of money, which was last year and amounted to about 400 billion uah, this year most likely will not

it will be almost the end of january, in january there was no money printing, as promised at first, the government and the national bank retain such a right according to the memorandum with the imf, there is no need for this. and this decision is important in that regard. well, plus i want to say that now, january, january, the meeting of the mental committee is accompanied by a review of the macro forecast , that is, some vision of how the economy will grow or fall, and the directions in which it will move. this is also a moment for tomorrow. attention thank you, mr. mykhailo, with us were mykhailo demkiv, a financial analyst of the iceu investment group, and yevhen dubagres, an associate expert of the analytical center case ukraine, they talked about

various topics, in particular, about how the value of money in the ukrainian economy andrii yanitskyi, economic news anchor on the espresso tv channel, together we will win vladyslav yeschenko, a 24-year-old deminero was injured while performing a task , an anti-personnel mine exploded next to him, the moment that happened , that is, up to a second . the guys left the field and when we started moving i constantly felt as if i was being wedged in the right side, it seemed to me that we were walking in circles, i understood that this was a concussion , a severe concussion, i understood that i was nobody

i hear a very strong ringing in my ears and instantly the darkness of the days of the eyes in the dnieper so that i did not have the idea to save them was already unreal, that's how they describe it, that at the moment when the explosive wave squeezed the eyes, it's like a shaking egg, and that's all the content, i just it is mixed, that is, my eyeball would not have been saved, plus my ego survived 30 fragments, they took out my neck, shoulders, arms, legs, thank god, my torso took all the impact, my bulletproof vest was torn, my face was sewn back together, speaking quite beautiful it also turned out that i lost my hearing almost completely. the right ear has a ruptured eardrum and a dead

nerve. the left eardrum is torn and almost a dead nerve . it is slowly recovering. there is a titanium plate in the cheekbones and i squeeze the volva on the mucous membrane , i survived with climbing something. i understand that i was already easy before the large-scale russian invasion of ukraine. vladyslav lived in slovyansk already at the beginning of march, he took a military oath and continued to perform tasks in the bakhmut area. release e-e he himself came as a volunteer, vladyslav was sent two men, we were engaged in the search for

ammunition and threats, and then transferred information a-a found threat to the desns. our task was to ensure full access to ammunition so that the fellow odessans could carry out demining even in a lying position. this was our main task, specifically detonation, or to dream. school vladyslav was born and grew up in horlivka in donetsk region, which has been occupied by the russians for almost 9 years, after all , there was no war, but it took everything from me, my father was quite a small businessman, we lived enough and at that moment when in the 14th it all started in fact for me the war this war started back in the 14th so when i had already moved to slavyansk and i had

a specific difference between what was happening vorlov in kyiv between what slavyansky is taking place on the territory of controlled ukraine , there absolutely all the puzzles fell into place, it immediately became clear where the black is, where the white is, where the good is, where the evil is currently a military partner and says that today the doctors have done everything possible for him to return precisely normal vision from the human and my eyes will not be cured anymore, there is no such thing as transplanting eyes or artificially growing eyes, but there are experimental technologies, in particular , doctors in spain are working on them. i don't know how much they cost you. to the sensor, the sensor will be located in the map of the brain. how does it work specifically

, of course, i don’t understand. i don’t have it all, again, it ’s kept secret because it’s an experiment , and how effective it is, i also don’t know it is possible to get there, in order to get there now , you need to fully understand all the various documents that i need to register a disability group and receive compensation and wait for an invitation from doctors in alicante. therefore, the family decided to continue the collection in order for vladyslav to be able to help other ukrainian soldiers, there is an idea to found an organization that will help the soldiers who got into the same situation as me, both morally

and materially, and everything that i can do, being in such a state, i will do it for ukraine, i cannot protect my family at the moment, being part of the armed forces of ukraine, but i can bring this benefit they are in the rear. i will do everything possible for this. i am grateful to my friends and family, who is always there thanks to his fiancée valeria. he actively leads social networks yesterday. we read about the class 150 comments. we don't just post video we see their support and we want to respond to those already after treatment, the authorities in spain, the couple plans to get married, valeria received a proposal that when vladyslav was in the hospital , such and such a proposal was made: you will marry me

or you will be my wife, i don't remember yes, i speak without reservation. yes, of course . how is spain happening, that is, we are going to spain, and there will be vision or no vision, regardless of whether we will sign the call sign of vladyslav, the samurai soldier says that this is the philosophy of his life, because a warrior has no goal and there is only a path, his path is to live today and help others not to lose hope, i am not doing this because i believe that i now owe someone something . to a friend, we were born with such psychology and morality , that's why i can proudly say that i'm ukrainian

. on i'll try my example if there are problems with this, well, the link will be on social networks , write me, i'll type, i'll negotiate myself, i'll help again душавления найти tetyana litvinova andriy virstyuk specially for espresso barrel in the country of war, a series of documentaries, each of which will tell about one of the ukrainian artists, artists who did not leave the -abroad and continue their creative path in ukraine , history just entered now, yes, at some such moment where everything just gathered into it as linearly, this is what happened there that we remember then, it was something endurance and as if it is now all in one moment and we see that well, everything repeats itself, but how the place

and meaning of the artist and his work change . on january 16, on weekdays from monday to friday at 11:10 on espresso, i congratulate you, this is freedom, life on radio freedom, we have already come to the very change, the following frames may shock you, the news from the scene live. meaningfully there is none political society frankly and impartially draw conclusions yourself i will never forget this night, the first night in the camp , which turned my whole life into one long
