[000:00:00;00] returned the weapons, the rest remained in the hands of the lists of citizens we know , we will not make them public yet, but i emphasize once again, says the head of dnipropetrovsk , attention. we will remind you that today ukraine got the head of the national anti-corruption bureau of ukraine . it was a long time, it was difficult, but in the end we will remind you that he became semyon kryvonos . we will talk about it now and not only vadim valk, an expert of the anti-corruption center for the lawyers of the automaidan, we congratulate vadim glory to ukraine glory to the heroes well, the day before the qualification commission chose three candidates, the seeds of kryvonos, serhiy

gupyak and roman osypchuk. we'll talk later, let's go back to the three candidates, yes, and one of them, semena kryvonos , was appointed to the position by the decision of the government, as far as we understand the issue of his two, well, no competitors and finalists are currently being considered, there was a proposal for them to become deputy heads of the nabu ot for, respectively, vadim, or uh, will they want to take those people into the management of the nabu of the two remaining finalists, well, look , according to the law of ukraine on the national anti-corruption bureau, uh, the director independently nominates candidates for the positions of his deputies, er, one of the finalists already works in nabu, he heads the department of internal control of nabu, this is the department that deals with disciplinary investigations against detectives and may conduct criminal proceedings in certain cases

. that is why this candidate is already in principle a leading position in the nabu . in addition, the nabu has deputies, there is a first deputy at the moment of the inspection bench, there are deputy directors by position, and again, people cannot be simply yes, to dismiss there are certain reasons clearly prescribed, including in the labor legislation, that is why it sounded very strange to me today, because the cabinet of ministers as a body that by law performs this and that function of appointing a director among three nominated candidates from the commission to advise, pressure, recommend to the director who to take his deputy of ecology - this is not the authority of either the prime minister or the cabinet of ministers of the body and here only the director himself will be able to in the future if he decides what is there according to the structure or full-time numbers, it will be necessary for some profile deputy in some direction to elect this person, so i would not say here that kryvonos should somehow perform it there for our tv viewers, or

everything is in order with the necessary criteria mr. kryvonos, who is now the head of the nabu, in fact, did we have any reservations about him or the other two finalists , we, as the public, had reservations, we submitted our appeals to the commission, and at the stage of candidates undergoing integrity checks regarding their professional competence, in particular, the winner that is, the national anti-corruption bureau has already announced mr. semenko 's takeaway, he is currently the head of dian - this is a body that essentially deals with the field of construction and controls the legality of construction at the local level and before the seeds of bloodshed, there were comments about possible political connections, in particular, mr. kryvonos' wife worked with mr. oleksiy

in the kyiv city state administration and mr. kuleba is currently appointed as the first deputy head of the office of the president mr. yermak. the second is when kryvonos was appointed to the position of the head of the diam. mikhail shvili, in whose team kryvonos once worked , said that they tried to overthrow kryvonos , and thanks to the help of mr. yermak, kryvonos it was possible to appoint him to such a position here and there because, again, this possible connection with the office of the president cannot be ruled out , that is, this risk remains and will the national anti -corruption bureau remain as a politically neutral body. so this is now the question under risks here is the challenge will be for kryvonos himself to prove that he is not some controlled person, he does not have any agreements with the authorities, and it is obvious

that he will be able to demonstrate this only through his own work . will be and so that they do not depend on the political affiliation of the positions of the persons involved in such proceedings. well, accordingly, we would like to ask you what strategy can be implemented , in particular, in the implementation of the nabu in the current situation, taking into account the new manager. well, it is difficult to say about the strategy, that is, for today the national anti-corruption bureau is not only an ordinary director, it is 700 full-time employees, more than 200, there are 45 detectives who are directly involved in the investigation and conduct criminal proceedings eh in the nabu in principle investigation and investigation, it is a procedural department and is independent from the director, that is, there is a main unit of detectives and the head of the main unit of detectives according to the criminal procedure law, he is

the head of the pre-trial investigation body , so there is no such direct interference in the investigation and instructions of the director as a detective. again, the question is still to preserve the secrecy of pre-trial investigations regarding the sources of information regarding possible dismissals, incentives, or bringing to some disciplinary responsibility employees, this is precisely the authority of the director, in addition, the director, well, issues a lot of orders on the activities of the nation, corruptly elects those who regulate, well, practically all spheres of activity of the nabu regarding there, uh, when accepting the processing of information regarding the internal management structure, so that up to the same staffing and nabu now, before the challenge, because most of the candidates who took part in the competition said that if they were to take up the positions of nabu and for the first six months, they would be engaged in the development of

a strategy for increasing the staff there the creation of an export institution, which was engaged in appropriate expertized implementation of the nabu, and this is exactly what the new director of the nabu should do , namely, to build this capacity of the bodies in the future. so that, well, i acquired not just lost the position that i am now, but developed and, on the contrary, improved them uhu well, then let 's move on to the next topic, the higher anti-corruption court of ukraine today postponed again to march 15 the selection of a preventive measure against ex-minister of infrastructure andriy pivovarskyi and his deputy about this it is already known specifically, we will remind our tv viewers that on february 22, the specialized anti-corruption prosecutor's office informed the former minister of infrastructure of ukraine and his former first deputy that they are suspected of abuse of power and official position , which caused the state more than 30 million dollars

in losses. in fact, vadim , this story continues. the preventive measure will be chosen only on the 15th . it seems that now it is about 20 million, if i am not mistaken, that is what the prosecutor's office asked for. tell us about the specifics of this case and, in general, give some kind of assessment of how well our anti-corruption bodies are consulting with their functionaries. well, indeed , today the reservation of the preventive measure began. made such introductory speeches and some of the people who passed took the stress

of mr. er, the initial stage of possible prosecution there in the future, that is, we have a suspicion, a suspicion - this is a well-founded assumption of the prosecution, that is, it cannot be asserted that slovakian's actions are a crime or not , and at the moment the court is not even er considering it purely examines exclusively the question of the validity of the suspicion and the presence or absence of any risks and, accordingly , based on this finding, will choose a certain preventive measure or, on the contrary, refuse the chosen e-e as far as i understand from today it sounded like everything will come down to whether a private company had two private companies from the kiss group of companies, right of ownership of the operational sea area in relation to the berth in the port of the south. that is, it is actually a legal issue in many respects, and from those discussions, so from those statements that sounded like the prosecution, the prosecutor , the defense, the lawyer, well, i think that the court

should accept those arguments, the next session will examine directly the evidence that was added to the petition and those objections filed by the defense and the court is already there . the investigating judge in this case will praise the decision. i think that on the 15th, if you are fine, there is nothing to prevent you from examining all this evidence within a few hours. investigate and make a decision, and that's it. well, in my opinion, this is the usual legal criminal process, as well as hundreds of other criminal proceedings, regarding the recent history of the anti-corruption reform in our country is fighting with the reform of corporate governance or state-formers in general, if you investigate directly, the essence of each individual criminal proceeding is that it all boils down to the interpretation of certain legal norms . that is, i cannot say, for example, that this is some kind of political order, or

political cases, because these criminal proceedings, for example, mr. pivovarskyi , were entered into the register in 2016. it was still there under the previous authorities, that is, they have been investigated for a long time, they just came out on suspicion, it’s the former director of the boryspil airport, so recently there was a freak on him, and this case was in court for a year and a half and all these for a year and a half, the case was heard, the evidence was examined, the witnesses were questioned, and the fact that the verdict has now been reached does not mean that a special trial was predicted when there would be suspicions of mr. kovalerskyi , mr. kobelev. who are perceived by a large part of society as reformers and who came to power in order to change the country there for the better, but we should not

completely exclude the possibility that certain individuals there are reformers or were reformers the absence or presence of any illegal actions, that is, at the moment, for example, i will try to commit fraud , it is only a suspicion. the facts, mr. volodymy well , we cannot but ask you about the next judicial somersault of the poltava mayor, mr. mamaia. of secret data about the armed forces, we remember that recently there was a court hearing in the matter of employment, so to speak, the mother is on the city sinecure of two people who were engaged in the maintenance of his separate household, what could be more , so to speak, according to poltava stories

er, well, regarding this case regarding the employment of fictitious people in communal enterprises and these people did not actually receive wages for anything and in fact they worked in the mayor's household, then we can talk what is the verdict of the higher anti-corruption court today, it is a conditional sentence, that is, he was given 5 years of imprisonment, but with a probationary period of one year, that is, if within one year he does not commit a crime or others or does not violate certain obligations imposed by the court well, in fact, he will not serve five years in prison. that is, it is a conditional term, but it is important here that, well, why is it a conditional term, because he has pleaded guilty, made a deal with the investigation, and paid 2 million at the zsu and someone else can say what he is over. in this way, he redeemed himself from a real prison term. but if we are talking about legal consequences , then this is a guilty plea. that is, this is a guilty

verdict, a criminal record, and this is his loss of the position of mayor already, that is, not within a year, temporarily some kind of suspension. the law on local self- government directly says that the presence of a guilty verdict of the court that has entered into legal force means the early termination of the mayor's powers and what we have, for example , after the court session, he said that he will return to the seat of the city council in a year chairman, this is only if the voters there after the end of martial law, when the elections of voters in poltava will be held in our country, they will elect him again. well, for now they are scheduled there for 2025. if everything goes well , there will be elections in 2025, probably yes, he already has a criminal record by then. will be removed because this conditional term will pass, he will essentially serve the sentence so conditionally, but well, that is, if you choose those in poltava who will choose a person who was convicted of a corruption crime in the past

, then here, of course, certain questions can arise before the voters themselves, why did the prosecutor's office conclude a deal with mamai and not prove it, so they refused and did not prove it . it was completely over there for several years in court . it is still possible in the future. he received a real prison sentence. i can't say because the text of the sentence itself i haven’t seen it yet. it seems to me that the full text has not even been published in the register of court decisions . in such cases, the court must always assess the public interest in such an agreement and not just the wishes of the prosecutor’s office and the accused. entering into this agreement always takes into account the public interest of some accurate analytics vadiko an expert of the anti-corruption center , a lawyer of avtomaidan was in touch with us and analyzed, well, i would say the most current trends in our fight against corruption or potential corruption, let's say with stories, so interesting conversation, well, we inform you about the most important party leadership

of the german chancellor, olaf scholz, assured prime minister schmigel of the continuation of support for ukraine, that is, it is about military financial and humanitarian aid, this is another an important signal well, the bulk of the anti-aircraft missile systems of the russian army is concentrated along the line of combat collision precisely in the eastern direction , the spokesman of the air force command of the armed forces of ukraine, yuriy ignat, said this about the air defense system, any airfield, any military facility has at least a banal anti-aircraft system defense such as anti-aircraft guns and possibly some air defense complexes of the ground forces. thus, do they have airfield protection? it is obvious that yes, because airfields are what need to be protected, but i have no doubt that they are the most protected their capital is the most guarded bunker of putin and not one, apparently, the main mass of anti-aircraft missile systems is concentrated along the line of combat collision precisely

in the eastern direction. well, the commander of the ground forces, colonel-general oleksandr syrskyi said that the armed forces of ukraine have reduced the offensive potential of the enemy in a big way , i quote alexander the syrian, the enemy threw additional forces into oba, the wagners, our warriors bravely defend the positions in the north of bakhmut , trying to prevent the encirclement of the city, according to the words of the syrian, the battle for bakhmut reached at the highest level of tension, the commander emphasized that the ukrainian resistance on this bridgehead has been going on for several months, all this time the enemy's attempts to seize the city were defeated by the resilience of our soldiers, our defenders inflicted significant losses on the enemy, destroyed a large number of vehicles, forced wagner's best assault units to throw their skills and reduced the enemy's offensive potential well and the eu is likely to reach a political consensus on the joint purchase of ammunition for

ukraine. hanna pevkur believes that the ministers will reach a political consensus on joint purchases during a meeting in stockholm literally on wednesday . at the same time, he noted that key issues are still the subject of debate. well, for example , paying for joint purchases, he insisted that eu members cannot rely on funds that have already been allocated . for military aid to ukraine we need actions a clear consensus that new money should be allocated for this initiative good emphasis yes extremely good emphasis well, the government in congress asked the united states to allocate an additional 250 million for energy equipment for ukraine well, in the meantime, we still propose to limit the right of members of banned parties to be elected as deputies for ten years , so the co-authors of the bills are yaroslav zheleznyak

, halyna yanchenko, mykyta poturaev, yuriy kamenchuk , and others, they propose to deprive them of the right to be elected by the people deputies deputies of local councils or village councils and so on members of parties banned in ukraine , in particular, it refers to the opposition platform for life as a party of sharia and anti-bloc such a restriction for the listed parties, they want to introduce for 10 years after the termination or cancellation of martial law in ukraine, well, a little bit of life . the so-called head of the parliament of the peninsula writes that such signs should be removed everywhere , dozens if not hundreds of signs in the latin alphabet, all this is the result of our westernization, can you imagine

yes, yes, yes, well, they’ll cancel it there, i can’t even imagine westernization, it’s the kind of thing that has seeped into, it seems to me , absolutely in all spheres of their lives, including life, and the minister of defense of ukraine, varshikov , told how much the ministry of defense saved due to changes in payments to the military, in particular, it is said about allowances of 30,000 hryvnias for military personnel not involved in combat missions , according to the ministry of defense, about 100 billion hryvnias were saved, which are needed to provide for the armed forces of ukraine about this the minister of defense said in an interview with liganet that the main factor, according to the minister, was justice. well, the ministry of defense received signals from the soldiers that soldiers who risk flying to zero receive an allowance of uah 100,000, and the forces are provided, which are 20-40 km from the front line and do not risk yes, they also receive the same funds with their lives. well, little by little, some data about

the budget of the russian federation for february 2023 has finally appeared . it is very interesting, in fact, there is such an interesting scale here that you can approximately read, if we are talking about oil and gas revenues, then actually in february they were 521 billion rubles, which is 46% less than in february or 22nd year, well, that is, a drop . the total volume of revenues is colossal, and if we talk about it, it is 1807 billion, and this is on 15% less than in february 2022, and if we talk about expenses, then 2.627 billion, and this is 43% more than in february 22nd , the budget deficit is 820 billion, and in february of last

year, there was a surplus of 281 billion, well, in any case we understand that everything does not look too optimistic for russia, but unfortunately the question it depends on how fat is the reserve of the russian federation, let's say this, which will allow it to endure all this until all the citizens of this country feel it. them so in the economy well, in the meantime, russia is starting to incite something to scan, in particular , it is about another statement from russia regarding the situation in your azerbaijan, the ministry of defense of the russian federation announced that the military of azerbaijan fired at a car in

karabas, according to the words, so to speak, it happened yesterday, so that we would shoot at the law enforcement officers of the unworthy karabakh, an unrecognized territory, so to speak, under armenian or armenian sovereignty , it is interesting that serhii lavrov visited baku , if i am not mistaken, literally 5 years ago in ukrainian social networks, they are joking that a russian of such a level has just arrived appear somewhere in the region, then immediately some kind of spark jumps out. unfortunately, well, in the meantime, we remind you how important it is to honor our heroes and on march 7 in kyiv by burying four fighters of the subversive group of the brotherhood who died on bryansk region in december 2022, and we are talking about uh, don't drink beer, saints tarasius and apollo , they were returned to ukraine on february 22, but given the need for a number of examinations

, they will be hidden. conferring the title of hero of ukraine on the fallen soldiers, these petitions received 25,000 votes. well, i instructed prime minister denys shmygal to work comprehensively on the raised issue. on march 7, what will be the funeral at the baiko cemetery and the memorial service at 11 o'clock in the dormition cathedral of the kyiv-pechersk lavra well, if the ministry of culture conducts a farewell application on independence square at 1 p.m., everyone who has the opportunity to join, please lead our defenders gradually, tonight's informational evening is gradually coming to an end, we were waiting for ella libanova, professor, doctor of economic sciences, director of the institute of demography and social studies of ukraine and she joins us. glory

to ukraine, mrs. professor. we congratulate you. well , we understand that history is not an easy key task of our country now to make it so that, under the conditions of a full-scale russian invasion and regular shelling, to encourage our fellow citizens who were forced to go abroad to return, and here the key story is where we should start, how to properly build our internal state policy, honestly, if the question is for me, to be honest, i am not convinced because we have to return people right now, while the shelling is going on, while there is a threat to the lives of the children. well, not only the children, but above all the children, it seems to me that it is best for these people

to sit abroad, especially since to offer them normal jobs, today we are mostly unable to. i think that we should work in advance , we should work to ensure that they return after the war is over, that they return consciously, that they return with their children, because it is extremely important for ukraine that for this we need to do well , it is clear that the economic development of the creation of jobs for which the salary of their work is everything well, as they say about everything good against everything bad, but it seems to me that we today we have to work with business with the governments of those countries where our people left from poland, germany, and the czech republic, and

what is the problem? the problem is that the population of these countries is rapidly aging. there is a shortage of workers, and they are very interested , really interested in our people stayed there and we have to make incredible diplomatic efforts to get them to work for the return of our citizens to ukraine well, that is, how can you imagine it, ms. hello, we need to encourage governments and businesses eh, friends of our countries, do they take ukrainians for a while only to work , or, well, i can’t imagine how it is even possible to transfer them without our encouragement

, they hire our fellow citizens and very willingly. another question is what jobs they hire them for , but ours agree here , the problem is another problem is that after the end of the war, they should promote the return, that is, that they should not encourage them with social payments to help pay for housing, that they would offer something to replace this in order for our people returned. i understand that this task is extremely difficult, we do not talk about it until now, but it is a reality if we do not

cope with it, let's say in germany, well , let's suppose. housing costs, agree that there is a huge risk that a large part of those who live in germany today will not return, because in ukraine, we will not be able to physically, er, financially, we will not be able to offer them such conditions to calculate exclusively for patriotism well, it is not worth it, patriotism is of great importance and i will never stop repeating that in the first 10 days after the start of the full-scale war, 200,000 men returned to ukraine , returned to defend their motherland and help their families, yes, and in general, if we are talking about some statistics according to the report of the un refugee agency

, as of now, 77% of ukrainians plan to return, 5% of respondents clearly do not plan to, 18 are undecided, but these numbers may fluctuate briefly. literally 30 seconds, people today are not able to give themselves an account of the fact that they are ready to stay abroad , what can we say about how they answer this question, sociologists perfectly understand that there is an effect of conformity to social expectations . thank you, professor, we are very glad that we had the opportunity and it is an honor to communicate with you, unfortunately we have to pass the baton to our colleagues now, but we hope that you and i will continue our cooperation well, the sixth hour is coming on the air espresso serhiy

rudenko glory to ukraine is a verdict program my name is serhii rudenko. good day and
