it recognized itself as independent. some say that it was a heroic defeat, because as a result of this defeat, the russian regular army led by the bandit muravyov broke into kyiv and some historians say that there was no defeat in fact, that the enemy was able to be detained, the enemy was defeated, and since the enemy was defeated , there is no need to talk about defeat, then we came with such a small number already delegation to lay flowers and honor these two young people who became a symbol of the courage of our today's soldiers of our armed forces who protect the freedom and independence of our the country and we must persevere art that saves lives, these words best reflect the essence of the artar-more art project, which is starting its way through europe. plates made of body armor painted by artists will be sold at auction, and with

the collected funds, protective equipment for the military will be bought, maria chernyakhovska will tell 12 plates of body armor transformed it is worth the objects presented by the exposition in warsaw, each of them preserved the life of a ukrainian military man, they were painted or decorated by famous ukrainian artists , each work has its own purpose, because on this in the picture, there are two holes that did not go anywhere, that is, they were prongs, the bullets were stopped , and ukraine is the territory of ukraine, and you can see one entrance from the territory of russia, and the other entrance from the territory of belarus, unfortunately, we all know how the authorities in belarus behave , that they use their territory the central art object of the exposition is an armored plate bearing the signatures of the president, the commander-in -chief of the armed forces of ukraine, and the autograph of the head of the ministry of internal affairs of ukraine, denys monastyrskyi, who

died tragically on january 18 after what happened with denys monastyrskyi recently became this confusing collection for us, because it was denys monastyrskyi who put the first signature on the plate with signatures. the exhibition has already been presented in kyiv and lviv, in warsaw. this is the first foreign exhibition of arbor art , which will be presented in european countries that support ukraine in the international arena. during this time, the organizers will agree on the painting of hundreds more ukrainian armor plates by world-famous artists. for example, we want them to participate. we choose the most famous artists and the most expensive artists, because objectively our project is about fundraising, and it is easier and more expensive to sell when it is painted by famous artists, all this is done in order to hold a large-scale auction at the final exhibition in london, which will be held in october, and withdraw money for protective equipment

for the ukrainian military, as well as for suits for deminers. therefore, all funds are exclusively for the protection and preservation of life at the event. visitors of the exhibition told the stories of the soldiers who, collected to drink, saved lives as a whole. the art objects did not leave the visitors indifferent. oh, we are there, you can see this hole from the shot, what we have here is a broken frame and also here is the heart of this angel. it evokes a lot of feelings . art armor in poland will last until february 20. maria chernyakhivska oleksandr danilov for the tv channel espresso from warsaw knows our ukraine finished in the top 3 of the medal tally of the european biathlon championship

in and world institutions are engaged in. a whole group of auditors is currently working in kyiv, why exactly now, in fact, any audit is a normal process and what uh, hmm, when the state and international partners where their funds are, they want to understand that they are going to exactly what these funds were allocated for, another question. the question is that it has acquired such a large-scale public coloring first appeared a resource on which ukrainians can provide information contact if they have facts that there is some kind of corruption with allocated funds that came from the united states of america, now we are observing such a serious enough

the landing party that is really engaged in the audit, if it had happened behind the scenes in a closed format, it would not have any public consequences, and here there is a big risk that we will receive positive conclusions, and it will be liked not only by those who use this assistance , it will hit the state in in general and our opponents, our detractors, who are also in the european union and in other countries of the world , 100% will use it, and of course russia, which will be maximally involved in this process and will discretely discredit ukraine, why this is today. well, there are a number of aspects, including the scandal of the last few days, when you and i found out that eggs can be bought not by pieces, but by units, and by kilograms. for me, this was, to put

it mildly, news, as i think that for all ukrainians, first of all, housewives, so today is a bad call for us as a country that is fighting to defend its independence, that defends its country and that every day, unfortunately, every day loses its sons and daughters at the front and not only on on the front, maybe on the contrary, maybe this check will show that everything is not as bad as it seems and reduce the arguments of those who say that it is necessary to reduce this aid, no, it cannot be , then it is better not to launch them into the public sphere, if it comes out into the public sphere, then you know it it will be like in the old joke, uh, the spoons were found, and the sediment will remain like that, and here , first of all, there are always moments that will cause a discussion about the use, especially

if we take the first periods of time, when it often had a chaotic character, and uh, na it's a pity, i'm sure that now we're not even talking about corruption, but about our realities with you, there will be moments that will cause at least a double interpretation but nevertheless, it will be 100% used by our enemies , the russian federation, which i already said about knowing some of our officials who , even during the war, allow you to engage in corrupt or non-corrupt, semi-corrupt actions, well, i am not worried about the warnings that, unfortunately, i think that after some time you and i will discuss it again on the air, and not only us only on ukrainian airwaves, but also on airwaves in the united states of america and in other countries

, which should help in everything, and those parties whose leaders take a pro-russian or similar neutral position, they will use it in order to reduce the flow of such aid to ukraine and in your opinion, the president is trying to preempt such a turn of events, when i launch a whole series of resignations in my own circle , at least by the way, the world press is writing about zelenskyy fighting corruption, expelling corrupt ministers at that time, yes let's say, on the other hand, the minister of israel near the minister's circle, it is possible for these corrupt ministers to work in the government for such an opposition. i would say classically, as i quoted, i allow myself to disagree with you. in the ministry of defense, the deputy minister told me that there is a scandal

, so i will write a statement in order not to cast a shadow and resign, first of all, if there is no corruption, if it is honest, then he should not write a statement of resignation, he should just come and show all documents and to convince you as journalists, the main thing for us as people's deputies - the ukrainian people is that there is no problem there, because the stories about it being a technical error, but such technical errors do not happen, on the other hand, if it is corruption, then he should not write a statement about his resignation should be arrested and he should be punished in accordance with the current ukrainian legislation. i believe that in general today it is necessary to take a more radical approach to these processes, and officials who allow themselves to steal from the state budget are actually stealing from the army actually belongs to people who today are left without their homes. whom the war drove out of the history

of the city of sel, and this is no longer corruption, this is already numbering, and here it is a pity for me personally as a person. it is a pity that the laws of wartime do not work for us, i would even form battalions corruptionists, you know how in russia there are battalions of which brigades are already convicts there, there is enough of such a good thing, we have formed battalions of lions, they were not led by the east, moreover, not in the armed forces, because serving in the armed forces is honorable. and i would form such battalions are outcasts and so on it turned out that they really love not only the ukrainian budget and earn money from this budget , but they love their homeland and are ready to fight for it, not only by filling their pockets. a person cannot be found guilty until

the court decides, this is how the whole world actually lives, and in our constitution this means that regarding criminal proceedings regarding crimes, but today what is happening in the ukrainian business and business, instead of surviving and recovering after very often its property and its capacity fell under the e-e russian text, russian occupation, for example , it is in kyiv region, chernihiv region, in other regions for that business that is recovering and moved, for example, to central or eastern ukraine to lviv and starts working somewhere, did not flee abroad or continue to work here, trying to create new jobs, trying to pay taxes , the tax office still comes to him all the time and starts to have nightmares and he has to prove that he is not

he is guilty, they come, he says, you are guilty, he says that you have not done anything, but you prove to us that you have not done anything, and instead of doing business, he is forced to run around collecting certificates, and very often not only certificates and money, because they tell him that we will let you go. excuse me businesswoman, but well, we need a pen somehow, and hmm, we are in the union , definitely a politician of the appointed team , we have registered a bill, it has already appeared in the verkhovna rada. i really want to believe that it will appear in the hall in the near future which allows the business to take the following position so that it is not yet proven within the framework of the current legislation that he is guilty , so he does not have to prove anything to anyone, his guilt should be proven by the tax authorities and not by him to prove to the tax authorities that he has done nothing wrong the first and second did it, so-called

tax invoices are very often used for manipulation, we suggest that if within 30 days a-a has not been proven, well , there is some kind of tax evasion or some other offense such a tax the invoice should be automatically registered and released because today they are suspended and kept, and in addition to not allowing them to work normally in conditions of limited resources and in conditions of the impossibility of obtaining loans, they are also often used for manipulation by individual employees of the tax office and in order to attract in their corruption schemes. and there is a chance that such an initiative can be approved at all. well, i really want to. let's see who will block it, because it is definitely not laid down. i'm sorry, some scumbags have settled in

for us, for business, for big business, it is for everyone , first of all, it will concern small and medium-sized enterprises if it is blocked at the committee level. parliament, and in principle we more or less support it, which allows us to reduce the pressure on business, and first of all, this will concern large businesses and medium -sized businesses, but there are not so many preferences for small businesses. and if they do not go further and keep our the law will not be given it is possible to support it. and it is primarily designed for small businesses and medium-sized businesses. well, this will prove that they are also involved in these semi-legal processes and get something from it. i think that the leadership of the verkhovna rada in our country supports this and i hope that all other factions , including it, the majority will be ready to vote for the improvement of conditions for ukrainian business. and in general, how do you currently assess the economic situation

, how difficult it is, what can the state really do now in order to to save this small and medium-sized business, in addition to what we talked about. we talked a lot with the business even before the war and they had one request, just don't touch us , ask for a normal job, don't come to us with constant checks, don't try to change us every month tax legislation should create uniform rules of the game and not, for example , introduce preferential conditions for the gambling business and not introduce them for others, but if i honestly thought that after the start of the business war, there would still be more serious demands on the authorities as a whole to the entire government to give additional help , etc. it’s still the same as it was before the war, they’re just asking you not to interfere with our work, fill the budget, help the ukrainian army so that we don’t pass

faster and win. but they don’t share seats , including everyone in the parliament therefore, we will help to move forward . well, we have already raised the key issue several times. unfortunately , the parliament has only just supported it in the framework of receiving international aid , which we talk a lot about, the provision of preferential loans because simply eating it is one of the options, and this must also be done because we have a great obligation to pensioners and to doctors, teachers, students , first of all, to the military who defend our independence, and on the other hand, we still need to start our the economy because uh, hmm, no one, we are even talking about providing for the ukrainian army, they can’t, won’t be able to, we won’t be able to do it at the expense of the funds involved, this is only within the framework of filling

the ukrainian budget, and in order for it to was filled, ukrainian business must work, that is, there is less pressure, more opportunities, and there is help in the form of working capital, and first of all, working capital can be credit if we give loans to our business at two and three percent , it will be much easier for it to recover and start working, create jobs and to fill the budget, and now they need to protect themselves for everything they do, because in our country, many people in the ministries and in the parliament do not understand that if you put so much pressure on the business tomorrow, it will close only the people who work there, they will come to the state budget to the employment fund, they will ask to pay them money so that they simply do not even live, but exist, but this and this will also be a burden on the ukrainian budget, that is, if a person works, if he provides for himself, if he is something creates several jobs and fills the budget with taxes, so she is as much a hero as many

of those who defend our country today. well , the head of the economy committee belongs to the matzo and says that we will have to figure it out after war with these fop salary schemes that are quite well-known for the ukrainian economy. well, there is such a question as to how long after the war there will be time to deal with schemes when we understand that this type of thing. i mean when we understand that the economy will be in a miserable state anyway and all attempts changing the status quo can lead to its further degradation, you know, i don't want to comment. sometimes it seems to me that some people's deputies live in some bubbles , they don't go out, they communicate with people don't see what's going on, it's very easy to deal with fops once, including hetmans, i tried badly it ended, but you know, it's easy to beat someone who can't give a lot of change, it's

harder to do it big business i'm looking at the gambling business the heads of the committee of other people's deputies have different attitudes, for example, there was a draft law of our colleague, which they very much did not want to pass through the parliament , it has been in limbo for three months , it is the abolition of preferential taxation . to the gambling business, and when we said what the hell the account of these funds. if the preferential approach is removed , it will be possible to increase the resources for paying pensions for paying scholarships for paying other social payments. he appeared in several places, if i'm not mistaken, in november, but they voted only in january, well, if that's the case, that means it's probably convenient for someone, and first you have to win

, win the war, win the economy, and then start figuring something out now. well, fine. if someone wants to figure it out, i suggest that they take all the hops that have closed during this time or that have lost their business. well, let the relevant people's deputies who are working today take theirs for their security, let them pay then no no the state pays fund for social protection against unemployment and they should pay these funds and let's see how hard they will fight to restore order, but if you are talking about what you just said thank you, mr. dmytro dmytro razumkov, people's deputy of ukraine, was in touch with us and we will continue the economic topic because it is very important, we understand what dmytro razumkov said that we need to win the war and win in the economy because we understand that if after the war our state remains as it was from the point of view of economic relations. and

in addition to these economic relations will be added the economic destruction that took place in the last year, which will, without any doubt , continue throughout the next period of our war with russia and no one knows how long this war will last. and in a month it will be years and we are entering such a i would say quite responsible stage of this war , the question will always arise, what about the victory in the war and how to convert this victory into a normal and even it is not prosperous , i think it can be forgotten but the stable life of the ukrainian state, we will talk about it now with the legal adviser to the president of ukraine on economic issues, oleg mostynka . congratulations, oleg. economy today, he says that it has shrunk by 35%. it seems to me that these are generally even optimistic numbers by and large. and maybe not, because you and i never know what the contribution
