[000:00:00;00] the army is the second in the world, how did they build the myth of nuclear weapons, and so on. that is, we are now destroying all these myths, and democratic societies are not provided with weapons by the government and the president , but by society, and that is, without the support of society, nothing will happen, there will be no provision weapons and we know very well that it is interesting when in hungary, for example, the pro-russian orban has pumped up the population so much with propaganda that if they actually start giving us weapons now, orban will simply lose power in hungary and uh, this means that our ukrainian voice is missing in hungary, there is a lack of ukrainian media that will communicate our narratives there that will represent us and will have a stronger position than the position of russian propaganda

, that is why it is important to communicate ukraine externally and communicate as widely as possible, because we know that right now we have a coalition of coalitions around ukraine and there was already a tank coalition and now there will be an aviation kovel coalition. yes, but these coalitions never include countries in africa or countries in asia, etc., with which we also need to communicate and for which we need to rediscover ukraine and for someone to open it from scratch because it is possible. last year they heard about such a country for the first time. yes, but in the end they heard. unfortunately, in such a context , it’s like a war, but still now they know about ukraine and agree that the first associations with ukraine are now not the same that this is some unfortunate country. and about the fact that this is a country that gives

a decent fight back, that has pride, ambition and a very powerful army and patriotic people, so this is already a plus. how is the positioning of ukrainians in the world? tell me, please, do you know there are some other initiatives, projects that contribute to informing the world about ukraine about why we need to be supported , why in this war it is actually necessary to stand on the side of ukraine, because the same african countries very often regard ukraine as their enemy, maybe not. friend and partner in view of history in view of the fact that they themselves once suffered were colonial countries and russia was friends with them and now they think that russia is cool what are the ways

to inform people in the whole world about what actually, we need to be with ukraine, well, some of our embassies are also actively working, but in embassies very often everything depends on the human fact directly, uh, the figure of this or that ambassador or uh, ambassador, and uh, it is also possible, uh, rather, the communication company united ventiforce where they also have united-medifomedia and they er also communicate important messages from ukraine in different languages ​​for sure for sure that's all for now i don't know any more about any foreign languages ​​from ukraine, instead er from russia this function

is performed by rashu there who were banned in many european countries, but in latin america, in asia, in africa, they speak. and for example, in some countries of latin america, they are ahead of cnn in terms of popularity, and in fact , you should not underestimate the work of rush there, and in the same way, we need to pay attention to it and fight with it. e with the work of rush there and on those in those countries where in fact they have quite strong positions, in fact such methods colleagues are literally buying up the media in the world, in particular in the same europe, their narratives, their some e-e communication things are transmitted through these sources since the local population trusts them in this way and an opinion is formed about, in particular, about this war that russia started against ukraine, how much

damage do you think these russian propaganda channels russian russian information under the guise of local sources of local mass media now in ukraine, eh, i can give for example , in the presidential elections of brazil , there was not one of the two leading candidates who supported ukraine, that is , two presidents, both pro-russian and this is the result of the work of the russian zeal. that is, it is already an environment there with which we simply need to work from scratch and gain

weight and authority there. there is a huge problem with china, and even without work i will continue to go there. the chinese state media are dealing with in order to support russian propaganda and there are quite a few channels of communication between ukrainians and china about ukrainians, that is why there are certain countries where the situation is downright critical, but if we talk about european countries , there are almost no such countries left except for serbia , hungary, there is a difficult situation if to talk about uh countries like china then uh i understand why uh ukraine does not have a strong enough communication representation there some kind of countermeasures firstly all media

are controlled even more than they are controlled in russia secondly from uh public opinion in china doesn't depend on anything. it's authoritarian there, maybe already totalitarian . a country in which, in principle , public opinion, like in russia, does not matter at all. it's sad. thank you, bohdane. bohdan logvinenko, founder of the project, ukraine , public figure and writer who this year received the georgy gongadze award for journalism

, he was in touch with us and we talked about information and, in particular, propaganda. up found in the court register at least 30 lawsuits filed by the ministry of defense against four state-owned enterprises engaged in arms procurement - the purchases are about uah 8.9 billion , that is, last year the ministry of defense 100% they overpaid several arms importers for the concluded contracts, but the delivery did not take place. it has been a long time, in fact, we are waiting for a year for the equipment, we are waiting for the shells, they are not there. we knew about this situation even earlier, because there are lawyers and economists in the council, and even before the publication of this material, we had already made inquiries, some decisions

are open in the register of court decisions, so this problem really is due to the overpayment of the ministry of defense advance funds for the supply of ammunition er exporters well, they are called exporters, in fact, from the beginning, it was a full-scale invasion of russia, these are importers who undertook to supply shells, ammunition , some kind of equipment. for some reason they did not do everything accordingly. i will say that in fact this is a problem, but it is not a problem that can be solved, you know, in one click, because we understand that the busy period of february, march, april, may, when the army increased tens of times when there was not enough ammunition. when the russian aggression was near kiev , therefore, in no way did i justify the ministry of defense , especially the importers and exporters, because

it is probably not the problem of the ministry of defense, let's say , the customer of the contract, it is directly the problem of the executor, who received the funds for their actions somewhere and then he did not undertake to deliver these funds , or rather, he undertook not to deliver them, and we remember all the investigations that took place earlier when some employees of these during the search of exporters in e-e, millions of hryvnias were shown there, so this is really a question for law enforcement agencies, but to date, the public anti-corruption council has not started working in any way differently after this drastic investigation. well, before that , we are already investigating this situation e. what adds to the complexity is the fact that it is still related to defense procurement, it is a state secret and everything is correct, because when defense contracts are circulating on the internet, this definitely does not give

the majority of ukraine's defense capabilities, therefore the public anti-corruption council is investigating these issues, these issues are also being investigated by law enforcement agencies. i think that after some time the public anti-corruption council will definitely give its report or answers to all these questions. well, there is a war here in the country. the sums are not small. and a really long time has passed, that is, i understand that when there is a desire, it can be done faster . who could not have such a desire ? certain problems are also necessary voiced to speak so that no one would want to repeat them again. and secondly, why was it not possible to solve this situation? well, in fact, i wouldn't say that this problem was soaked if you look at the press conference of the ministry of defense when it was held with the participation

of the public anti-corruption council, the minister of the leadership of the ministry and the office of reforms , it was from the side of the public anti-corruption council that the question regarding the receivables was raised. therefore, at that moment we already had information that these were receivables who is to blame? well, it is actually easy for me on the one hand, on the other hand it is difficult to say because i am a lawyer. i understand that until it is necessary that these funds were embezzled , no one is to blame, but in fact all the funds were sent abroad in order to purchase military equipment accordingly equipment and shells by these special importers , that's why they made a decision, they undertook under the ministry of defense to supply these ammunitions, and therefore, in principle, the responsibility lies with them. no one says that

the ministry of defense of ukraine has any specific actions will be taken against them now. well, let's face it, the situation is not that strange, but it's completely disgusting. well, i fully support you. the situation is quite disgusting and will definitely be resolved, and even i will say that outside the ministry of defense is the first legal step. what is it? for which the ministry of defense says that the exporters did something wrong and in fact there is another problem in this situation in that we are sure that the ministry of defense will not collect these funds because the list of exporters transferred these funds somewhere, there is no money in them and we we know, and even when the ministry of defense is satisfied by the court, the lawsuit is delayed for 8 billion, all eight billion will not be taken anywhere, that is, the special exporters must first either deliver ammunition from or is there some other equipment that you understand. i understand that they must either return the money or give what these the money is gone, but in general, i am left with a strange situation where 9 billion suddenly disappeared and

no one sees it, but i understand this , we will hear more, i would like to ask you to say a few words about the defense procurement agency, which will now carry out purchases of weapons and military equipment, or do you think it can solve the situation if such incidents do not recur, er , to date, i am not convinced that this agency will solve the situation, i have several subjective reasons for this, first of all that a lawsuit was also filed against the agency against the ministry of defense when it did not qualitatively fulfill certain obligations by june 1, the agency is also essentially an executor of defense procurement, that is, it is an ordinary contractor of the ministry of defense on a par with the others exporters and that's why i'm not sure that the agency will, let's say, fulfill these obligations as transparently, honestly and qualitatively as possible, if it has not already set out today, but it is

definitely a nato standard . it's definitely that we are approaching the time when every state has a, well, that is, a standard when the ministry of defense is the administrator of these funds and a certain agency that will use these funds, the question of the effectiveness of the use of these funds and the public anti-corruption council is already dealing with this because there are also a lot of questions regarding the agency and well, let's see what it is all about it will be over how much information they will give us, and then we will draw our conclusions accordingly and report to the society, yevhen neznets, the head of the anti-corruption council at the ministry of defense of ukraine, talked about almost 9 billion uah that disappeared and no weapons appeared in their place, and it seems that at the moment there is no guarantee that such incidents will not happen again, thank you, we have information yet zbahmut, a minor correctional officer of shelling by bahmut will spend 10

years behind bars in donetsk region, the druzhki city court recognized him as this correctional officer guilty of collaborationism and what was the judge? well, it was one piece of news, and iryna koval will tell you more news in a moment. but before that , watch judicial control with tetyana shustrova this week in the program judicial control with tetyana shustrova. are all applicants virtuous, a very important body that from which direction depends who are our judges and where did candidate lyudmila volkova's valuable property come from? congratulations you are watching the judicial control of me tetyana shustrova soon ukraine will finally get a functioning higher qualification commission of judges for more than three years, this extremely important body for the judicial system has not been working, and here the renewed composition

is waiting for little work, except for the qualification evaluation of the current servants of themis, more than 2,000 judicial vacancies will have to be filled, so the new composition of the judicial system will determine what the country's judicial system will be like in the coming decades. the council of justice has already completed interviews with thirty-two finalists selected by the competition commission, and although most of the applicants have a good reputation, they do not have hidden wealth. doubtful candidacies still remain, see more about this below, but first, the news in ternopil is that an investigation into two criminal proceedings is underway, the suspect of which is a lodger in the court of the northern appeal commercial court of lyudmila kropivna on may 8. a forty-four-year-old man attacked the journalist of the espresso tv channel, maria

ivanovsky, who was performing an editorial task that related to the inspection of the judge's declarations about the property status in ternopil, in one of the buildings where the apartment of the judge of krypovna is located, our colleague met a man who, using force, took possession of her phone, after which he threatened reprisals based on this fact, the information was entered into the unified register of pre-trial investigations under article 171 , part one of the criminal code of ukraine - this is obstruction of journalistic activity; criminal proceedings were also initiated under article 186, part four of the criminal code of ukraine - this is robbery we we continue to monitor the investigation and will tell you more in the following programs .

the resignation of the chairman of the chernihiv district court of the zaporizhzhia region, vitaliy lameyka. as it turned out, the dbr is conducting an investigation into the judge's possible cooperation with the enemy, according to the information of the bureau, vitaliy lomeko went over to the side of the invaders and is currently in berdyansk, which is just as occupied as chernihivka . the case against the head of the court is being investigated under the article of state treason . vitaly lomeyko sent to the people's liberation army about his voluntary dismissal in november of last year, that is, already after the occupation of part of the zaporizhzhia region in 2015 for according to the publication berdyansk - 24 lomaiko rammed a tractor moving in the oncoming lane with his car while on a tip-off. from the register of court decisions, we learned that in 2016 the tokmak district court of the zaporizhzhya region returned to the national police several times the report on this administrative offense and eventually closed the case

with the decision to close the case of lomeyka's road accident was also confirmed by the appellate court of the zaporizhzhia region, information on the investigation of possible state betrayal of meyka is not currently available in the register of court decisions in ukraine during the war, as a result of hostilities, seven judges and employees of court apparatuses were killed, nine more were injured, the head of the council of judges, bohdan monich, said in an interview with the public, according to the data of the state judicial administration , 54 judges and 353 employees of territorial apparatuses are currently serving in the armed forces of ukraine. management of odesa and state enterprises belonging to its sphere, monich added that the judge of the krasnograd district court of the kharkiv region, dmytro konstantinov, blew up

a mini-demining liberated territory kharkiv oblast and the judge of the mariupol illichiv district court, yuliya matveeva , was held captive by the rashists for 7 months. she was detained while trying to leave the city in october last year. the judge was released as a result of the so-called women's exchange, when 108 women were returned to ukraine. 16 members of the qualification commission of judges of ukraine, the most important body of the judicial system , are responsible for the formation of the judicial corps, the transfer of judges from one court to another, as well as for ensuring their of the appropriate level, in particular through the qualification assessment and recommendations to the high council of justice on the appointment of a candidate for the position of judge, the most important commission for the judicial system

has not been functioning for more than three years . the promotion of a judge from one instance to another also takes place through the higher qualification commission of judges. that is, it is a very important body that depends on which direction. who is in us? judges in which judicial positions after the first one in ukraine, how large-scale is the process of updating the actually 100% of this body, previously the competitive commission for the selection of members of the higher qualification commission of judges recommended to the supreme council of justice to appoint 32 candidates from them, now the vrp must choose 16 who will form the new composition of the foundation de jure believe that there are many real change agents in the list of candidates for the vc. and the updated supreme council of justice

has significantly advanced in its practices in the direction of professionalism, integrity and transparency compared to the previous composition, in particular, the reformed vrp opened a broadcast of interviews. and although this required several statements from the public and international partners, such a decision may indicate the readiness of this body to respond to society's requests and work openly, it was during the viewing of these broadcasts that the public was able to find out new facts about candidates for the high qualification commission of judges and to refute or confirm previously expressed doubts, one of the first interviews of the high council of justice was held a candidate for the higher koval commission lyudmila volkova, she of the former kharkiv district

administrative court, according to the information of our colleagues from the volkova parking lot, made decisions that restricted peaceful gatherings in 2011 and 2012 and other issues related to her integrity lyudmila volkova from 15 to 18 was a member of the council of judges of ukraine, then as a member of the working group, she did not find violations in the actions of the head of the court of appeal of the cherkasy region, volodymyr babenko , who systematically put pressure on judge serhiy bondarenko, the latter did not accept whose decision the head of the court demanded from him in the case regarding the office premises of the nitrogen plant, which belongs to the fugitive ukrainian oligarch dmytro firtash, they treated me with great disrespect for everything that you declared war on me

. and what is war? yes, he announced it to me. in the name, i understand indian well. well, all normal people somehow understand that there is some kind of business. we can help as the poor man has not done anything wrong , but i have already asked you two or three times. dear, there is also a judge in our team. i will tell you who comes to me when or what can be done there. yes, you deliberately come to me, you don't come, you deliberately make decisions about those people whose age you see in your life.

this story had a loud resonance, however , the judicial system built on the principles of circular bail led to the fact that volodymyr babenko was never brought to justice . pressure on him and did not find any violations in the actions of the head of the court, volodymyr babenko, at the interview of the commission, i asked the candidate about this case, then i directly spent three, well, probably three hours with judge bondarenko, it seems to me that it was extremely long in general . that is, we were just talking. that is, we were sitting together in his office for about an hour or so, they just talked, they talked about everything about this situation, and he told us his visions, well, it was just a conversation, not with him, they talked for a long time, i mean, he told all the same, since the interview with the candidate was broadcast online, he was able to watch it and the main character

of this story suffered from the pressure of the head of the court, serhiy bondarenko, and accused volkova of outright lying. such a fact was true. the whole point of the conversation came down to the fact that mrs. volkova conveyed to me the wishes of the head of the court that he will give me the opportunity to work, but for this i must publicly apologize to him and withdraw all my complaints and appeals . having received a refusal, volkov and the company drew up a certificate in which they noted that everything is fine in to the court of appeal of the cherkasy region a bondarenko is a liar the supreme council of justice recently allowed the arrest of the retired judge, the former chairman of the court of appeal of the cherkasy region, volodymyr babenko, he is suspected of attempting to embezzle someone else's property in particularly large amounts by abusing his official position, as babenko is hiding from the investigation, he was announced in national and international

search in 2019, a candidate for the supreme qualification commission of judges lyudmila volkova received a loan for the purchase of an apartment with an area of ​​107.3 m², in the elite residential complex alter ego in kyiv, her friend svitlana mukha gave her more than uah 2.5 million . lyudmila volkova assures that she had such an opportunity and does not demand an urgent return of funds. this year she married a man who has a powerful business in kharkiv, kharkiv region and in the cities of ukraine. this family is engaged in private business all the time, and its origin is its own work. i have no financial what about her financial dependence? i really have to return it, but i don't have any interest-bearing obligations, such as whether the loan was small. but this did not stop lyudmila volkova during this

time from also concluding a preliminary contract for the construction of a house in belgorodka near kyiv , only volkova has the money to repay the loan and construction remains unknown even after the interview lyudmila volkova is the founder of the non-governmental organization association for the development of judicial self-government of ukraine , which opposed the involvement of international experts for the reform of the supreme council of justice is now taking part in a competition where international experts are members of the commission. we hope that the supreme council of justice will take into account all the facts of the professional activity of this candidate for the supreme council of the communist party of ukraine and make a fair decision for her. for today, i had all this judicial control and i'm tatyana shustrova. if you want to report corrupt judges
