[000:00:00;00] what absolutely strong people, whom we unfortunately lose every day because of russia . i want to thank you for the powerful defense package with which we will strengthen our fighters . the ukrainian president discussed economic issues with the prime minister of poland, mateusz morawiecki . in particular, it was about the reconstruction of ukraine and the defense sector, and a number of agreements were signed. international documents today we are signing a document on the supply of polish armored personnel carriers, wolverines , self-propelled mortars, cancer systems of papua, in particular , very effective, as the prime minister said, and it is true perun and it's true, you guys who produce such an important product that protects ukrainian life could and other weapons that we need so much, several satyrs, several hundreds of polish companies ready to participate in the reconstruction of ukraine, they will have the advantage and

may the victory be as soon as possible . zelenskyi's official visit continued within the walls of the royal castle, thousands of ukrainians and poles gathered on castle square in warsaw to see the speeches of the ukrainian and polish presidents live . it is important for us to be here now because it is possible postpone all other matters and take part in this because the whole world is waiting for this horror to end and we will finally return to our usual life. i think that this is not because he is the president, but because it is some such piece of ukraine that is located here this is at least some hope that this will end soon. i am really looking forward to him coming out and telling us it's time to go home. i think we need to be in such places. these are historical moments. when such a difficult situation in the world needs to be supported and

we must be close to the ukrainian people here now zelensky thanked the poles for their open hearts and expressed the hope that poland will become a leader in the aviation coalition, just as it became in the tank coalition, and also assured that together we will win. maria chernyakhivska ihor antonyuk for the espresso tv channel from warsaw. next 16 hours 31 minutes we inform about the most important well, an important signal has arrived from our enemy, the founder of the pvk wagner evgeny prigogina , but we quote him only because he refutes the scope of his russian propaganda. so, i quote prigozhina, his telegrams should clearly say the enemy, that is, our armed forces are not going anywhere. in particular, it is about bakhmut. they have an organized defense inside the city from the beginning along the railway. later,

in the area of ​​​​high-rise buildings in the western quarter of the city, then when they leave in a frenzy we will completely er take them all to the last well but in any case his fantasies are his fantasies the key story is that the enemy that is, our fighters are not going anywhere with bahmut and organs well-organized defense inside the city is if even the enemy admits it, we understand that this is just a good recording of what is happening on the battle lines, we return to the discussion of important international events that in one way or another affect the situation in ukraine pavlo usov , belarusian political scientist, head of the center for political analysis and forecasts from warsaw are joining us, mr. pavlenko, we welcome you , i congratulate you, that president zelensky met with the president of england, and they talked about

extremely important stories, of course, the key history is a safe history, well, in parallel, lukashenko made his next visit to putin, so to speak, there we bowed to his feet and so on, we will talk about it a little later, we would just like to ask you about you as a person, so to speak, who represents belarus yes, but you are in warsaw very do you have a good sense of the various political currents, so to speak, and how can you sum up the visit of president zelensky and the creation of a common platform between ukraine and poland, possibly without a peak? this is the evolution of those political processes that i have already were not transferred to the fact that poland, together with ukraine and lithuania, created the lubyansk triangulation. this is what they historically can do with the polish-lithuanian commonwealth and the grand dukes of lithuania, and in this paradigm, i think that the process of unifying the region and creating

a single security system will be to attract well, for example, in some perspective , yes, belarus will join the union in the process of democratization, so it will be a true, strong, regional, rebel bridge to the regional security system, when it will be connected according to the population of the tables. it will be equal to only 100 million people, ukraine, belarus, poland, cars, estonia, as well as moldova , and things are already being laid. these are the foundations for security. this is a very important political project, especially when we talk about inadequacies. actions, the founder of the war, and in what format will russia exist, one way or another, it is so strong, there are no barriers, and such a fashionable

geopolitical platform, such as e-e unification, no urban civilizational aspects, the basis is simply necessary, in the meantime, the nc is also negotiating negotiations with the president of russia vladimir putin a-a so they talked there until late at night, the institute and the study of war believe that the kremlin is trying to force belarus to further integrate within the framework of the union state well, we have talked about the same many times before but is lukashenka's position changing or transforming lukashenko does not have a position on this, and you have to understand that, essentially , after the 20th year, when

he only thanked putin and he hid power. russia won from belarus, then let's start with the fact that lukashenko completely surrendered independence, destroyed sovereignty, is a political nava- in those conditions, independence is the subject of belarus, russia manages our country , how is it? - the territory of ukraine and the s-400 and the iskanders with the plane, well , in the end they wanted to leave nuclear weapons , they vetoed it, and lukashenko is not there, first of all , there is no water maximosti to say no, so say

about the change of his hours of subjectivity, he worried about them, he already imagined his behavior and subjectivity, in fact, here is the ball to the soldier . putin called and he arrived. speaks with lukashenko under his own generals' skills. well, nothing is known, and that's a month ago, well, the second meeting there took place a few days ago, when there, at the end of february, and the conversation was the same for several hours, and the results were of no lows, and we're only watching it when we're bullied. not habituation, as for nuclear weapons, or your intuition tells you for what purpose putin regularly pulls lukashenko's body to himself, so lukashenko seems to not want to, but fulfills it, i don't know if it's some kind of psychiatric mission of his, that is, he has to calm putin there or have a drink with him or that for what purpose do they constantly drag him to moscow lukashenko

constantly demonstrates his loyalty the russian contingent is in belarus engaged in using the belarusian military training grounds russian aviation in belarus what else is needed putin from lukashenka, well, he regularly invites him to his residence, so to speak, well, goethe is a kind of demonstration of the fact that there is no need for progress and the entire geopolitical association, because we still need to show haste. conditionally seems to agree with no international agreements there poroshenko as a sovereign makes decisions here freely important dangerous thing eh khto rukam not lukashenko the russians can launch eh that and use eh tactically nuclear weapons struck a blow and here i am not conditionally saving the sub' objectivity

he is supported that it was not putin who did it, but an independent lukashenko, there it is possible that lukashenko will finally solve the issue, i am not in a hurry , well, together with this, of course, in addition to tactical strategic aspects , the deepening of political integration also appears, because from the hands of lukashenko, whom russia recognizes as a personal president, yanu still wants to keep all the mechanisms of political control over belarus according to well, formal, all the rituals will be performed, and the last thing will be the creation of universal flights, er, institutions, er, the structures that will govern this union state. well, finally , the vacuum of this project is to gather all the survivors, then all other territorial processing

, such as transnistria or abkhazia. hmm, he has a version of maxim. don't worry about it, the field for maneuvering the skills of the union state at the moment, not putin, is quite large, and it's also not the same as feeding your own electorate in any way, because according to all those parameters that putin tried to pyramid or west, he lost in ukraine, he had nothing to do with nato, today they held the concession of finland, where is this pointer now, not under individual nuclear weapons, they will gently declare such emotions that in the event, uh, the knees should be back, it’s interesting and that’s what the album is, it will be just like with those speeches, everything is waiting there is nothing like an earthquake, but there is a small explosion, and well

, these are the visits, and they are already . well , they are also demonstrating. behind the army , control over political and economic institutions and subordination of belarus, territorially, politically, completely. lukashenko , because he drags him, well, to be honest , too regularly. so, let's add information about

more than 20,000 applications to the offensive guard, that's 20,000 volunteers expressed god's own desire to join the assault brigades, they informed the national guard that the national guard continues to equip the assault brigades of the offensive guard and repulse er select people to form the reserves of these brigades, which will later actually er hmm release donetsk luhansk and crimea a-a ukrainian cities guarantee that this is what is written on the website, you can find this offensive guard on the internet , register, uh, among those willing. and actually , you can choose the brigade in which you want to fight, the direction of the offensive is guaranteed to get to like-minded people, here is information like ulyana noga, now we pass the word to tetyana sustrova about grams of judicial control, we will watch together after that, we will continue our analysis of current events, see this week in the program judicial control, the finalists of the competition

the news these days in the center of attention of the whole country is the decision of the judge of the volovetsky district court of the zakarpattia region, oksana sovilkanych the servant of themis imposed a suspended sentence on three rapists of a 14-year-old girl, teenagers committed sexual violence against a child and filmed it all on camera, later spread the video on the internet and among classmates, the crime occurred in 2021 , however, the case gained publicity only after oksana sofilkanych released the accused from the real by imposing a five-year suspended sentence with two hands from the probationary period, the court in its decision relied on the positive characteristics of minor

rapists from class teachers and the service in children's affairs, after publicity, judge sofilkanych , who headed the lovetsk district court in zero , suddenly fell ill and went to the hospital. in 2016, she sided with the russian occupiers and became a judge of the illegal supreme court of the dpr, according to the case materials, a woman from the very beginning the capture of a part of donetsk region, she supported russian peace as part of the judicial body of terrorists, she managed to make a number of illegal decisions regarding ukrainian citizens who are in the temporarily occupied territory of donetsk region, also as part of the so-called collegium, the suspect made a decision regarding the ban on the territory of the pseudo-

republic of ukrainian public organizations of ukrainian-language publications and books for treason and participation in a terrorist organization , a former ukrainian judge faces up to 15 years in prison with confiscation of property where the number of judges in ukraine is increasing in two months, the supreme council of justice dismissed 77 judges from their positions , 70 of them resigned, seven resigned of their own volition, in total , the beginning of the work of the authorized staff of the supreme council of justice, as of march 23 , 2023, under general circumstances, 99 judges were dismissed in the meantime the higher qualification commission is the only judicial body that has the authority to carry out certification and recommendations for the appointment of new judges. it has not yet been formed

. there is currently a general shortage of judges in the country. is about two and a half thousand, that is almost half of the entire judicial body, the implemented anti-corruption prosecutor's office sent the indictment to the court against the judge of the kolomyia city district court of the ivano-frankivsk region, volodymyr pyatkovsky, he is accused of receiving a bribe of one thousand two hundred dollars for this, he allegedly promised to save a citizen from responsibility for driving a car under the influence of alcohol, the suspect in this case was also the driver's lawyer, he went to an agreement with the investigation in court and appointed him a sentence of five years of conditional imprisonment with a probationary period of two years. the high qualifications commission of judges has not been functioning for almost 4 years. the powers

of the previous composition ended in the fall of 2019 after amendments were made to the law of ukraine on the judiciary and the status of judges and other provisions on the activities of judicial governance bodies. since that time, the judicial system of ukraine was deprived of the possibility of selecting judges, which led to a shortage . qualification evaluations of acting judges, which also could not but affect the quality of the ukrainian judiciary, this is all the authority of the supreme qualification commission of judges of ukraine, consisting of 16 members, the career growth of a judge from one instance to another also happens through the higher qualification. that is, it is a very important body , from which direction it depends on who are the judges in our country and in which judicial positions. this is the first time

in ukraine that such a large-scale process of renewal of the actual one hundred percent of this body is taking place. concerts of members of the higher qualification commission of judges of ukraine consisted of three ukrainian judges, it also included a prosecutor from the netherlands and two retired judges from canada and the united states of america out of 300 candidates for the position of a member of the supreme judicial council, the commission chose 32 of them and recommended them to the supreme council of justice for appointment so now, finally , the formation of the higher qualification commission of judges is coming to an end, for the last months we have been telling you about the most desperate candidates who tried to break into the reformed body despite

ambiguous reputation, high-profile scandals, sky-high opaque fortunes and many other skeletons in the closet, fortunately among the 30-somethings there are two applicants who made it to the shortlist of the competition commission and were recommended for appointment, most of them are motivated and honest, but not all of them. this is the judge of the dnipropetrovsk appeal administrative court serhiy chumak and he knows how to buy an apartment at least four times cheaper than the market value, well, at least it follows from his declaration, his wife bought an apartment in dnipro with an area of ​​almost 53 m², for 6.5 thousand dollars, the price is too low, especially if an apartment of such an area in the neighboring building costs $30,000. at the interview, serhii chumak explained it like this. in the 15th year, i was transferred to the dnipropetrovsk appeal administrative court

in may. there was a need for the life of humanity. not suitable for housing and to make repairs in it , actually build it from scratch, as i mentioned in the explanations, the value of the apartment is confirmed by an expert's opinion, as stated directly in the sales contract in point eight, which is the value of the expert 's evaluation . it fully corresponds to the value that i declared in the declaration . appears in criminal proceedings related to fraud in the unified register of pre-trial investigations there is information about the case according to the materials

, employees of the organization conducted false an expert evaluation of the car with a clear violation of the procedure without an actual inspection, however, serhiy chumak assures that the evaluation of the apartment was ordered by the seller, and as the seller, therefore, i had nothing to do with it. he was so lucky more than once. since 2011, judge chumak owns an apartment in donetsk with an area of ​​62.6 m². in the declaration, he noted that its cost was slightly more than $190 per square meter, according to market researchers, the average the price of an apartment in donetsk in 2011 was over $1,000 per square meter and $740 in the cheapest area. we called

serhiy chumak, a candidate for the higher qualification commission, and asked him why he was so lucky to buy cheap housing. greetings , serhiy yuriyovych, this is a judicial control program on the espresso tv channel we have a few questions for you from the first question about an apartment in dnipro, how did you manage to buy 53 km and uh , we are always looking for the cheapest apartment with my wife and the result was for housing and then her we are renovating, so he did, and the apartment is somewhere around 25,000 dollars, my family's income for 11-14 years amounted to 240,000 dollars, that is, an apartment for 30 and for 40, there is no purpose to understate, so the income allowed us to have an expert assessment, it was carried out by the group of

vkf-sparta and this company appears in criminal proceedings regarding fraud, it concerns an apartment in donetsk, the price per square meter was slightly more than $190, if you look at the prices in that period, in 2011, the price per square meter was $740 on the bypass the edge of the city and we also did repairs there, now serhiy chumak is a finalist in the competition for the vkks, we hope that the judiciary will carefully study the biography of this candidate for a high position and will make a fair decision about him in the way the qualification commission of judges of ukraine prefers and the former judge of the severodonetsk court volodymyr luhanskyi he went to i resigned in 2020 and became a lawyer. i resigned because my wife is a judge and i am a judge

. the workload was quite high. in fact , i have a daughter who was eight or nine years old, who had to be helped and studies and in this but i submitted the documents, i did not say goodbye to the judicial system, my documents in the qualification commission are for the occupation of the position of judge of the luhansk court of appeal, and i was going to participate in the competition and in order to prepare for the position of judge in such an opportunity i just didn't have an arbitral tribunal. anna, you will be a lawyer. i could prepare and carefully enough. i decided that i should try a little to work as a lawyer . not everyone has the normal image of a lawyer.

it was mine and the reason why i resigned. volodymyr luhanskyi was recommended to the competition commission before the appointment, however, we have reasonable doubts about his integrity and the legality of the sources of wealth . luhanskyi was appointed to the position of judge in 2008, and since then the fortune has only grown. in 2010 , he acquired a house in luhansk of more than 200 m² worth more than 90,000 dollars, almost 30,000 uah cost 10 hectares of land under it in a year, a candidate for the communist party of ukraine bought a 2010 mitsubishi pajero for 50,000 dollars we note that before being appointed to the post of judge, volodymyr luhansky worked for 17 years in the prosecutor's office. so where did he get the money for expensive purchases, however, the question of volodymyr luhansky's integrity is not only about money, according to the de jure foundation in

2014 and 2015, already after the occupation of crimea by russia and the beginning of the war in donbas , luhansky, as a judge of the severodonetsk court, visited the russian federation at least four times. presumably in luhansk, occupied by russia, he had 80 m² there, i wonder under what legislation volodymyr luhansky sold real estate, unfortunately, during the interview, the competition commission was not interested in this. so we decided to call and ask ourselves. hello . greetings, mr. volodymyr - this is a judicial control program, we have for you a few questions you were appointed to the post of judge in 2008, after that in 2010 you bought a house of more than 200 m² and 10 acres of land and

then you also bought a 2010 mitsubishi pajero for $50,000, this is exactly budget option after that, she worked at the prosecutor’s office at the age of 17. there were family preservation wife. i also have a judge . our salary was not small. and we had the opportunity to save in 2020. you stopped owning the apartment . 80 m² i understand that you sold it and according to what legislation and how the sale took place uah 400,000 we hope that the supreme council of justice will take into account these facts of the biography of the applicant to the higher qualification commission of judges of ukraine and

make a balanced decision for today with me it was all judicial control and i am tetyana shustrova. if you want to report corrupt judges or illegal decisions , write to me on facebook or to this email address. see you in exactly a week news time on the espresso tv channel in the studio iryna koval welcomes all viewers and to the most important events right now when the time comes, everyone is ready to have a telephone conversation with zelensky, but only when there are suitable conditions, the head of the european commission, ursula von derlein, said at a briefing after the meeting with the chinese leader. der lein and macron had talks today
