[000:00:00;00] what successes are still ahead of us, it is not a fund to help at all, it has existed for more than six years, and it has been more than six months, we have founded a project, this is a project that helps helps people who have lost their upper limbs, er, to get a bionic prosthesis, a biological prosthesis , completely free of charge for us this is very important because we want to give dreams. we want everyone who needs it to get what he deserves. well, we just saw in the material that your prostheses were there. well, it seems to me that this is such a high-tech technological thing and quite probably koshtovna and how do you manage to collect money, who donates and how successfully i can't disclose everyone who donated because this is the specifics of charity , someone wants to give their name, someone doesn't, all partners who wanted to develop their name

can uh, you you can see on our website on the website of the helper, in principle, everything is written clearly and precisely, if we talk about the successes of the donors themselves, then i invite everyone to join because there are not many funds , especially for e-e for such good causes , that's why every entrepreneur, every enterprise be it abroad or in ukraine, if they want to help, please. we will be happy for any partnership, a natural person , anyone, whatever. we have actually seen prostheses, these old ones, well, there are leg prostheses, it’s more or less clear, different types, but hands, well, this er, have seen old prostheses, they are quite so simple, but you have a completely different thing , ah, i don’t quite understand how to control them, if a person doesn’t have an arm, yes, that is, how he was there in the material information that you can take something,

carry something, like everything it is done and all this it is done with the help of bionic sensors, the sensors are installed in the socket in the sleeve, which er, which you control a person and control er with a ball, that is, the rest of the hand er , the muscles contract and er, the sensors react to this and er, the prosthesis is launched in principle, everything is very simple, very effective, and uh, i think that it takes 2 to 4 weeks to fully train for this payment, uh, now we are fully practicing to uh, understand how to do it, what stages are needed, because this it's not just that you developed this pro test for it requires a lot of stages, first of all it is a complete consultation with a rehabilitation specialist and an understanding of how we move forward , what is needed for prosthetics and what their design should look like , which holds the process

itself. and a healthy hand so that in the future the prosthesis will be equal to a healthy hand and after that the production of the prosthesis itself will begin and within two to four weeks the protest will be completely manufactured and you will already start with our as partners, for example, this is the magic foundation, which i now think is one of the best national rehabilitation organizations in ukraine, and together with them we are starting the process of setting up and setting up the very work with the patient’s prosthesis . ugh, if it’s a commercial secret.

an expensive thing , how much does such a prosthesis cost? times cheaper than any analog in the world, because our prosthesis is completely manufactured in ukraine, all stages of production are in ukraine, and the most important thing is that what makes us different from other projects is that our project is completely non- commercial. we are not going to sell these prosthetics. we want to help with a charitable background to do only useful things and give people smiles. i consider it the most important thing. $8,000 and it's free. yes. and one more question, i understand you. there are many applications. how many of these prostheses have you already managed to install and what is the queue, how many more people are waiting for it? at this stage, we already have our first patient because we are a startup and in the past six months we have developed a prosthesis and are already providing the first prosthesis

and it will be somewhere at the end of may, that is, at the end of may there will already be the first patient with a prosthesis who can come to you , for example to the studio and tell everyone how he lives, but the knowledge of how he works and what are his pluses and minuses. for us, it is very important that everyone responds. and if we talk about applications , there are quite a lot of them because we are already thinking about expanding our fund and will it is possible to recruit volunteers it is possible even for employees because there are a lot of applications. they need to be processed and we want everyone to receive an answer and everyone to understand . there are accidents or something somehow we consider all candidates even children and we want to make it so that uh regardless of age regardless of gender regardless of

how uh the limb was lost is it an acquired injury or disability uh we could put these a prosthesis to a person and help him feel more happy and get good emotions well, and most importantly, how to get to you is very simple, as it seemed from your stories, you can go to the allvionix website or the website to help there is very simple the form and it is filled out literally in two minutes, if you do not have the opportunity to fill it out, you can ask any person to fill it out and we will definitely contact you, talk and give feedback. it is very important for us that everyone who we contacted received a communication, thank you very much to you for what you do for what you have given us time for coming to the studio, we will be happy with your new successes together with everyone thank you well, let me remind you that it was mykyta zoryanov, the manager of the charity fund, to help, they talked about

free prostheses for ukrainians that can be ordered directly from the fund and of his partners two weeks before the summer, but all the beaches in mykolaiv oblast and odesa, closing the sea coast is dangerous, there is a lot of ammunition in the water, deputy chief of the mykolaiv regional military administration, mykola marinov, told the public in the pre-war in 2021, more than 2 million tourists visited the region's resorts . at the beginning of the war , their number decreased by more than 80%. some recreation centers operate by accepting a minimum number of guests. year, we worked 90% so that people from mykolaiv could come to take a shower, take a shower, stay with us literally

for a day and return to mykolaiv on their business, that is, when there was no water in the garden , koblevo was the first place where you could just take a shower, you can see all the taxes that are charged to us in full, and in wartime, all taxes are charged in full. that is, it is a tax on land, it is a tax on every square meter of real estate, and all taxes are charged to us in full volume, there is not a single hryvnia discount at the moment , the question of raising e-e electricity is already being raised, and the issue of advance payments in advance for electricity is also being raised as before, but

no one understands that there is no money in business one and a half hundreds of recreation facilities, says deputy village head ivan kipin, with information from the village council , last year the community lost about uah 50 million before the full-scale invasion, revenues to the local budget amounted to about uah 100 million. will there be a tourist season in ukraine ? maryana, i congratulate you. good evening, so tell me where in ukraine it is safe to rest now, where can i go, well, actually, all of us who live in ukraine continue to work, er, here, er, we understand what's going on there is no 100% safe place, it is so difficult to say that it is completely safe, but on the other hand, as we often say to many foreign colleagues, there are still some places in the world where there is not even a war, it is more dangerous than in ukraine now, that is, after all, statistical

chances yes, somewhere there are very low in order for there to be a missile strike , and well, first of all, of course, such a region for ukrainians is the carpathian region, uh, also all the regions bordering the border of poland, romania, slovakia and the central part of our country and southern southern central southern territory and that is where the majority of ukrainians spend their vacations, and actually we have a very situation of businesses that have actually stopped in the south of the country, although it was the main place for ukrainians to rest before the full-scale invasion, it is our southern resorts in the summer of mrs. mar ' yana well, the favorite vacation spots of ukrainians in the west are yes lviv oblast ivano-frankivsk oblast there are mountains and do you have any figures

on how much the number of tourists has increased uh, for the last couple of years, well, actually, not a couple of years, you started the war. let's say it's anywhere, no matter what it's called, it's very relatively approximate, uh, so we don't count. of local budgets of the state budget and such an increase is significant in the lviv region in chernivtsi, that is, yes, the essence is yes, but for example , the ternopil region is a drop, so also a

drop . precisely to the western part of our country and temporarily a large part of kyivans lived there, in particular, later people returned to their homes and if tourism in the carpathian region was not too badly affected, that is, there are hotels that work on the full model , which is more interesting. in the east or in the south of ukraine, how are they crying, are there any support programs for them, and just now it was on the story that they pay the full amount of taxes that are charged to them, is there any way out for them, well, in general, for businesses that have stopped and located in territories that are close to military operations, there are certain general tax reductions for all businesses, you need to look at the specific territory, there is also a fund for compensation for the destroyed menu where it is destroyed, but of course for businesses that actually stopped

and do not have such a number of tourists for today, there are no such programs , but we are working to ensure that, first of all, tourists can still go there in large numbers after the end of the war, that is, on such routes that will be connected in particular with the memory of the war and in general over the development of the south of ukraine because we had big plans for the 22nd year precisely for the development of such a route from izmail to henichesk through all of these resort territories, koblevo was, for example , one of the important points, just such a resort we planned together with the local government with business and with the regional administration with business to develop. unfortunately , due to the war, these plans are on pause, but we will definitely implement them and we are sure that this business, which is temporarily not working today , is temporarily forced to stop its work

receives a completely new such development after the actual end of the war, now it is important for all of us to concentrate on the future and do everything we can to support the armed forces of ukraine and win this war. and one more question , please, after the end of the war of our victory . how long do you think it will take for that in order to fully restore the level of tourism , for example, in the mykolaiv kherson regions that existed before the war, ah, this issue will probably take several years to fully restore, but we plan that after all to invite domestic tourists to those territories that will already be, that have not been occupied, that do not have the territory directly demined, that is, even if the sea is mined and here it is difficult for me to say this more, for sure , the state emergency service or the military can answer these questions when it will be possible to completely demine, in fact, from liberate our sea but many hotels that have certain swimming areas and so on

are important to invite ukrainians to them precisely to support the west of our country, we will have to open it for foreign tourists because for the first few months, we will not resume air connections and tourists can unfortunately , we are running out of airtime sorry, please, thank you for your comment, it is clear that we must first wait for victory, then roll up the rock and work maryana leskiv , the head of the state tourism development agency was with us on the air well and the latest information from cnn, not with reference to high-ranking officials , reports that during the night attack on the capital, the russians probably damaged one of the launchers of the patriot air defense system, damaged but

did not destroy the last one information from cnn further on the air meet yevgenia kharkiv take care the russian war does not stop ukrainian culture ukrainians preserve and create it today with the support of the european union together we preserve museum collections and ancient architecture together we create literature music new art grants to independent artists and projects to preserve historical monuments there is a ukrainian comprehensively supporting us together we save together we create together we are europe our citizens are not abandoned and we are not waiting for it to end armed conflict we understand very well the conditions in which our boys and girls are unfortunately kept and from every exchange of our returned defenders we see how scruffy they are and how wasted they are and we understand that we cannot sit idly by mr. bohdan from the first

let me congratulate you on the first channel of public broadcasting and thank you for reporting to us today. congratulations, i am also grateful to be present. the coordination headquarters for the treatment of prisoners of war , whose representative you are, was created a little over a year ago in march of last year and however, the armed aggression of the russian federation has been ongoing since 2014. why is the issue of prisoners of war? well, as a result of the creation of the corresponding coordination headquarters, they were updated only after the full-scale invasion. i want to note that for the ukrainian nation, for the ukrainian people, the war began precisely in 2014, for the international society , for the world presented by the russian federation as some kind of internal conflict and therefore the question of the war and everything related to it

on international platforms even though raised by the ukrainian side but they were not perceived by the society by the international society in the problematic quality that it was for the ukrainians and only after the large-scale invasion that took place on february 24, 2022, it became an issue of international humanitarian law during the armed conflict, the world saw the real the face of the russian federation, they realized that for almost eight and a half years , the russian federation had been leading them by the nose, so we paid attention, after all, in the first days of the war to the fact that it was a war, and accordingly began to operate certain mechanisms provided for by the geneva convention. it was through the geneva convention that a national information bureau was established in ukraine as required by international humanitarian law, and accordingly

, the next step was the adoption of resolution 257 there on the formation of a coordination headquarters for the treatment of prisoners of war at that time headed by vice prime minister iryna vereshchuk in may 2022 , changes were made accordingly, they were taken into account as achievements, such are the steps that only the military can take to the highest military and political the leadership made a decision to make changes to resolution no. 257 and transfer the chairmanship of the coordination headquarters to the head of the main intelligence department kyrylo oleksiyovych building how did this change the work of each headquarters e-e did it affect its work military are a little different from civilians there is a certain psychology and philosophy of their activities that is why a certain concept of the functioning of the coordination headquarters was developed in order to be able to integrate it and involve in this process

absolutely all the necessary resources e-e which e-e as of today or on that day, the state had this and the relevant departments this and the relevant law enforcement agencies this is the security service this is the ministry of internal affairs this is the ministry of justice this is the office of the prosecutor general and now, as a result of our joint activities, we have more than 2,000 people released from captivity this is 2,235 people this it is enough as of today, 235 of our defenders have been released from enemy captivity, the work does not stop , the work continues, and even now, at this very moment , when we are talking with you, somewhere in the offices, important decisions are being made negotiations are being conducted, information is being clarified, a certain negotiating position is being formed in order to get our boys and girls out of the enemy balloon. do you have information on how many more defenders are

in good captivity as of now? to enemy captivity . unfortunately, the war continues and even at this moment, as we are talking to you, maybe someone is captured at the front, that is why this number is constantly changing, the motto of the coordination headquarters, we will return all of them absolutely. every citizen of ukraine who is currently in captivity or missing will return home. this is where i would like to explain. the coordination headquarters deals exclusively with prisoners of war or civilians who are also captured. we are actively working with the authority of the verkhovna rada on human rights with dmytro valeriyovych lubins precisely in the direction of civilians, this is

his direction of work, but he is structurally also is included in the e-e coordination headquarters, therefore we are not limited to today exclusively to the military , this is also a civilian citizen emphasizes that among the released there are also e-e more than a hundred, these are civilians, they are former law enforcement officers, for example, they are former military personnel who took part in the anti-terrorist operation, this the former are just military servicemen, however, according to the third geneva convention, they are not prisoners of war among those who are currently in captivity, even the military is also incompetent , this is emphasized by our doctors, this is medics, this orchestras which, unfortunately, for some reason are also being held as prisoners of war under general conditions , moreover, they are violating all the requirements of the geneva convention, which provide for the formation of separate camps for the maintenance of this category, they keep our citizens, civilians and soldiers, in penal

colonies together with those who are serving sentences according to the violation of the criminal code, and this is also a violation, and in fact there are simply many such violations in the russian federation, and last week we were at the osce conference where the topic of non-compliance with the geneva conventions by the russian federation was raised, the katun military servicemen are simply a mass of violations, and i think that the time will come when the ukrainian side will reach the responsibility of the russian federation for the crimes committed, and by the way, how did the osce react to this information that you voiced there? well, let's talk as follows , in the legal field, the russian federation positions itself as a country that does not seem to follow all international standards

of international humanitarian law of the geneva convention well, in fact, at the entire conference in the osce, the strong ukrainian side was represented 80% of the time, and the events that took place outside the main meeting made it possible not to show the barbarism and abuse, by the way, we did not show the video we all know about glory to ukraine, how the guy was shot for these words, respectively, there are other videos that show the simply inhuman cruelty of the russian federation, we took screenshots and during our report we showed it emotionally, they were not ready for this cases when i saw that people from other countries even cried when they looked at these e -e materials and they were shocked that such a thing is happening now in ukraine, they thought that it is here maybe they are shooting there sometimes there and when we emphasized, they gave the floor to a serviceman

who was released from captivity and they were also shocked by the inhumane atrocities that were applied to them or did not forget about the prisoners who have been captured by the enemy since the 14th year, in our case , absolutely all citizens of ukraine who are illegally detained by the russian federation that in the temporarily occupied territories that in the territory of the russian federation is a priority and we are actively communicating with public associations that were formed from members of the families of those citizens of ukraine who have been in captivity or convicted illegally in the temporarily occupied territories of the so-called dnr since the 14th year lpr, the russian federation is still trying to preside over these negotiations , limiting in a certain way the issue of prisoners of war exclusively under the geneva convention , and the exchange of prisoners of war must

take place after the end of the active phase of the armed conflict, in this case, the ukrainian side is doing the simply impossible. there has never been such an experience in practice as ukraine is now gaining. regarding the exchange during the active phase of the armed conflict, no country was, our citizens have not been abandoned and we are not yet the armed conflict will end because we understand very well the conditions in which our boys and girls are unfortunately kept, we see from every exchange that our defenders are returned , we see the traces of torture on their bodies after they are examined by doctors, forensic experts and law enforcement agencies, we record their testimony, we record absolutely all the information they give us about their behavior, and we absolutely see the

difference. by the way, they are held in our country in appropriate institutions that were formed in accordance with the norms of international humanitarian law of the geneva convention , that is, if we compare the face of a russian prisoner of war whose we also give our serviceman whom we returned, well, the difference of 20-60 kg can sometimes be the reason. unfortunately, we understand that we cannot sit idly by , we understand very well that if there is a sharp loss of weight, it will certainly lead to an exacerbation of chronic diseases and other health deterioration we also do not forget that among those who are in captivity there are many wounded , how many of our defenders did not live to see it, unfortunately there are cases when even

confirmed by the red cross, this is the highest the level of confirmation of being in captivity, bodies are returned to us, and in such cases, er, fortunately, there are not many, but unfortunately there are cases when people, er, who are in the colony due to the exacerbation of chronic diseases , due to torture, for other reasons, die , then the authorized person joins with regard to the search for persons who have disappeared under special circumstances, it is easy to find other mechanisms for the return of bodies. torture of ukrainian prisoners of war was reflected in the report of the monitoring mission of the un, and indeed in ukraine, which was presented on march 24. unfortunately, the said un report published

information about the negative aspects of keeping russian soldiers in captivity, but the positive facts, at least about the telephone communication , were not outlined at all. contact with relatives, because ukrainian prisoners are not even provided with such a right and for a long time do not have the opportunity to communicate with their relatives , i emphasize that ukraine adheres to the geneva conventions conventions of international law and open to international organizations calls on the world and international organizations to help ukraine in the issue of admission to places of detention of ukrainian prisoners . are concerned about the arbitrary executions recorded by us of up to 25 russian prisoners of war and persons who stopped participating in hostilities if they were

committed in the armed forces of ukraine as far as this report, how objective and impartial is this report? and in general, how do you assess the work of the monitoring mission? the war continues not only on the battlefield, but in the information space. we understand that the united nations is an international organization that also includes representatives of the russian federation . and their lobby, and in this organization there is no need to underestimate me, er, i can neither refute nor confirm these data, but today we defend our territory , they attacked some country, we do not lead some kind of occupation war, we are defending our homeland, we are defending the land of our great-grandfathers, great-great-grandfathers, this is a war within a war. anything is possible, but if a serviceman of the enemy army is captured by us, it means that he will definitely be moved to a special place of detention in a camp for
