[000:00:00;00] some services related to the space industry, they were sanctioned by the us, there were 7 minutes of sanctions. and now i think that there will be more control from the government, because they were commercial companies , but large companies. they were left out, they were not sanctioned, but still i think that the control over them is an incident in the south china sea, there is still a philippine coast guard and journalists on board almost collided with a chinese ship in china this story is called a deliberate provocation in order to conduct an information campaign in the media with an accusation against china, said this now, commenting on the event , said the spokeswoman of the ministry of foreign affairs of the people's republic of china maunyin hands over the reef renaif to crimeform, she said it is part of the chinese islands nanny on april 23, two vessels of the philippine coast guard entered the water near the rinai reef

without china's permission, one of them deliberately provocation actions by approaching a vessel of the coast guard of the people's republic of china. what do you know about the details of this incident, how much it can affect the stability in this region, which is already under a question mark, please in general, the south china sea is such an ancient zone of tension, and this sea washes the territory of many countries , including vietnam, thailand, malaysia, indonesia , the philippines , and taiwan . has maritime border disputes with virtually all of these countries disputes include islands reefs shores and in recent years beijing has been actively developing marine infrastructure and creating such artificial islands atolls and it thus claims common territories in the south china sea. and there was even a lawsuit

from china to the international court of justice. the international court of justice then rejected it, and china was very offended by what happened. both sides called it provocation. and this territory is really important. and sea routes and how the situation in this south china sea will develop is also worth attention and analysis and the fact that in the philippine direction china claims parts of the spratly islands, they are called this this is such a long-standing conflict and we know that the territory of the philippines is used in an alliance with the united states to prevent the future, as they say, of the seizure of taiwan by force. that is, it is generally a zone of tension that should be followed further, but these provocations , as they say, are repeated, it is not

the first time they are repeated periodically what is the security situation around the island of taiwan now this is such a historical question i don't think if you are hinting at a military takeover then i don't think it will happen in the near future, china is really saying this more loudly and we know that the taiwanese are china's red line . but in my opinion, we need to watch next year because in taiwan there will be elections and not only in terms of power . therefore, we really hope that the tension in the taiwan strait will be resolved due to the new status quo , the party is more loyal to china. for me, it is not her, to be honest, yes, of course she is more loyal to china and the ex-leader of taiwan

recently visited a mainland chinese woman. it was the first visit by a politician of this level in 1949 , so it is possible that this conflict will be resolved, not by force. we hope that the status quo will be found. okay, thank you, vita. of the ukrainian association of chinese studies talked about the topic of china , chinese-ukrainian chinese-russian and other international relations - this is the largest world economy today , yes, well, we will continue to talk about the prospects of exporting our grain from ukraine, our grain, we remember that we have a problem with the grain corridor a-a by sea and we actually have problems with the export of our agricultural products through the territory of our neighbors, or rather transit, we can in most of ours but sell on

territories of poland, bulgaria, hungary, slovakia, we will not be able to tell the economist that we actually do not lose a lot from this, but such a sediment is unpleasant, so turkey is also actually joining some company against ukraine's trade in grain for two problems with the export and transit of grain from ukraine, turkey announced the introduction of customs duties on the import of wheat, corn and barley from may 1, 2023, and the rates for imports will be 130% instead of the current zero, which will inevitably lead to an increase in the price of ukrainian grain on the turkish market and a drop in demand for it this measure is aimed at the protection of domestic producers on the eve of the new season, it is turkish producers they are talking about, of course. pro-ukrainian grain comes in, and yet, how

much do we need these financial resources that we get from its export, is our next guest in touch with us, and this is serhiy labaziuk, people's deputy of ukraine, member of the verkhovna rada committee on agrarian and land policy, serhiy, congratulations glory to ukraine glory to the heroes good day to yours please tell me this 130 percent barrier duty of turkey to what extent it can threaten the export of ukrainian grain in your opinion, please in fact, i would name everything what you already listed before , you know as a pragmatic approach of the world regarding the situation around ukraine, what is this pragmatism? and today we see their position that it will not be possible to sell agricultural products to poland , bulgaria, slovakia, and so on. and the fact that turkey is doing this is nothing but politics, in

my opinion, because somewhere they are in the first place their interests have become political interests, because now there are elections in turkey, then elections in poland in the fall, and nothing else but yes, if we talk about whether our products are needed in this country, yes, if we talk in numbers, then i want to emphasize that, for example, in poland, by 2022, they have increased by 35% incomes in animal husbandry due to our grain, which is just cheap for them, and the fact that today turkey imposed a 100 to 130% duty on the import of ukrainian grain specifically for the needs of turkey, of course it is harmful for us, it is good that as of today it remains zero duty on processing, that is, if the products will be imported from ukraine to turkey in order to be processed there and go to other countries, in principle, this method will be zero, but in any case, problems and aggravation on the grain corridor in the black

sea on high water are now problems with the fact that we cannot sell agricultural products to a part of european countries , only transit, but we must emphasize that this transit is extremely difficult. well, i want to say more, it becomes absurd when several cars with grain accompany four police cars with flashing lights and shouts with bolts through the territory of poland, well, this is absurd because of course, on the diplomatic front, this week, members of the agrarian committee of the verkhovna rada of ukraine emphasized that we urgently need to talk about these events, well, much louder than we talked the previous week and more somewhere to turn to our neighboring countries because unilateral support from one side from the other side you know i want to say this maybe it will sound harsh but than in back, well, to some extent, well, it's not exactly neighborly and partner-like. well, it's not exactly neighborly, maybe it's my personal

impression of this decision. maybe i'm wrong . the european commission decided to ban the import of five types of goods from ukraine, the polish publication rmf reported on this it is about the import of ukrainian wheat, corn, rapeseed, sunflower and sunflower oil , according to the publication, the import of these goods makes up 90% of all imports from ukraine to the eu, that is, before if we were talking only about the border countries , poland, slovakia, bulgaria, romania had to we had certain claims restricting the export of ukrainian goods. so now it will be a joint decision of the entire european commission. this is the executive body of the european government. how do you assess it ? well, clearly , i don’t want to use the word problem again, but there will be difficulties for us because this this list of products ukraine has already grown, the ukrainian farmer put them in warehouses and had contracts with the same countries that have now banned imports to them, the contracts had to be fulfilled, that

is, there is some kind of action program and in one day with from friday to saturday to take and stop any contracts without the possibility of fulfilling them there , well, this is absurd for the civilized market world , well, this cannot be done, and if we say that today europe has seen some losses for itself, is there, for example, non-competitive conditions for farmers, is it again it is not true, because the european farmer receives subsidies on a permanent basis, these subsidies amount to thousands of euros per hectare and for livestock, especially during the war, there is no support for the ukrainian farmer in general and today, when the market stops for us, the opportunity to realize continues, well, this will entail, at least, a reduction in the production of products, a reduction in jobs, and god forbid it will lead to the bankruptcy of certain enterprises, so again, this decision, well, it seems strange to me at least not

to use another word, and i want to believe that in a short time we will still find the tools to convince our neighbors that it is not possible to act like this, it is not a bad idea. but at the same time, i want to emphasize that today we proved once again in this world that ukraine is really a high-tech country in the agricultural sector, because what a ukrainian farmer can do, a ukrainian arari without state support subsidy well, it is obvious that today european farmers could not do this , once they became so scared when some volume came ukrainian products to the market. and in our case, the support is supposed to be a program for farmers , that is, the state at least declares that it supports. when i go to it for this support , i am in no way critical states, let's be objective that during the war, first of all, all resources are directed to providing the armed forces of ukraine. well , we understand that as of today, the state budget is in the best condition, so today we don't get into the numbers here.

we fulfill the state budget and how much credit resources and aid do we attract from our partner countries now objectively except for one support of loans 5 7 9 nothing else the aggregate sector does not receive these resources far insufficient because as as a rule, farmers took these loans in 2022 and in the 23rd year only received an extension of these loans, and everything else fell on the shoulders of the farmer himself, including logistics , which became more expensive four times, i emphasize four times, compared to pre-war times, the cost of logistics increased transportation of grain and other agricultural products for farmers, today it is obvious that farmers do not earn but continue to provide income to the state budget, continue to save jobs and the key is to sow fields for that for ukraine to have bread well, of course, it could also provide the state with foreign exchange, but there should be no

criticism of the state because of subsidies. today, there should be criticism of the state exclusively in the part that perhaps we did not foresee something and did not work enough, as in at the diplomatic level as well as at the parliamentary level because what happened, well, most likely , it was necessary to foresee it and look for options to prevent it today is already a difficult challenge because, in principle, i think any to the question of an average farmer, an agrarian, do you have an understanding of what will happen in a month to your budget and the sale of your agricultural products, unfortunately , no one will be able to give an answer to this, mr. serhiy, returning to the restrictions imposed by the european commission for urban exports, i do not want to use the phrase commercial war but can somehow the ukrainian side at least consider the possibility of introducing symmetrical actions because well, all

european agricultural products production without any limits and restrictions enters ukraine, since our hryvnia is relatively strong , there are more and more european - made goods on our shelves, and not only european ones. of our minister of agrarian policy with the fact that let 's introduce mirrors also then, well, this is not quite a word sanction of restrictions so that part of agricultural products and others from europe could not enter ukraine in in principle, this would be direct support for the domestic producer, because if we cannot sell our dairy products or meat products to europe today, then they should remain on the market of ukraine, and if other imported products go, we will have to compete with them. but we you must understand, and unfortunately this is also a bitter truth for us today. well, i will say such a nasty saying at the stretch, we need to ask

our partners for weapons today. we are asking for further financial support today. may be a much more important risk, even as of today, god forbid a stoppage of support in a military format. unfortunately, we are hostages somewhere in this part of the situation, but in no case does it not give opportunities and, well, i don't know what opportunities, but to stop the actions of the cabinet ministers, parliamentarians and diplomats, we need to knock to prove with arguments and numbers to our partners that, in principle , this action they are taking today is primarily harmful to them, and if we say that ukraine is an interesting strategic state for our partners and i'm obviously convinced of this, that's why they should think somehow not in one day, but a little further. and the fact that today we are a shield from the russian invader for the european union, this is a fact. and when today

someone in europe thinks exclusively about the economy , about i know there, er, the income of my family. so today we are protecting europe and today , unfortunately, we sometimes and very often lose people who are not worth three minutes. we we are starting to export our grain er all over the world so at least it looked happy they were ready to accept it what they get is this, you know, access to the sales market , that is, there will be a final consumer, for whose sake everything will grow, and now in connection with the news about the grain corridor on the neighbor's sea, if

we missed something, we will not miss it, and so on. next how does this affect the mood of farmers? can we say that now our sowing is actually going according to plan, and ukrainian farmers are just as brave as they know that they need to plant, take care of it, then harvest. now, where to sell and to whom, we will think about it for 3 minutes. it is difficult to invest now, but i will try , in fact, the ukrainian farmer was and will be patriotic and zealous , but the objective reality is that money for sowing is not enough to implement the technology , and unfortunately, the technology has been implemented in the majority today, it will not be decrease in production is a fact, but of course the fields will be sown, i am convinced of this, the agrarians were ready , and today the work is going just like the poles, but unfortunately, there will be less progress in relation to our agricultural products, how much it is needed in the world, it is critically needed, and

it is precisely the neighboring countries that made money from it today very, very long ago , in principle, once again returning to the issue with which we started the unfair decision. today, both our european partners and turkey, because for them it is it was also strategically important and this is an exclusively pragmatic policy. today, i am by no means an economic savant. i believe that this should be corrected in a short period of time and we should actively work for that. thank you serhiy lavazyuk, in direct contact with our studio , people's deputy of ukraine, member of the committee of the verkhovna rada verkhovna rada on agrarian and land policy well, i will say that according to the information of our minister of agriculture, 24% of the land will not be. less well, as serhiy said that in the absence of money , not all uh. all the technology will be carried out during the sowing, this will also obviously lead to a decrease

in the harvest. they will understand that they cannot harvest, and the saddest thing when you go, for example, to the east of our country is that you see these crops, these fields with a crop sown and not harvested by anyone , this really develops the heart without queues and without a queue of paperwork
