[000:00:00;00] it's also true, i'm fine. by the way, i know how much the politicians paid for such work, and you know who did it and where it is, well , it's terrible, but it's true, and that's why i want to call this struggle for identity, again, what are we for? we are fighting, where are we, crimea, are we crimea, not us, but donbas, are we not us , please? well, again, i turn to the book about the scythians, their territory included crimea , this is our territory, this is the territory of our e-e ancestors, the fact that ukrainians spread further er, to the east and not only ukrainians, we know what and more distant ancestors of our army, they reached india and northwestern china, but by these standards, as they say, you should not speculate

, you should not put them in the foreground, because after all, the invasion of expansion will take place and in the future, i am a supporter of the fact that the people it is possible to change very quickly to the other side. well, let's remember such a cultured people as germany, how quickly the fascists completely directed it in a completely different direction, and everyone probably believed, well, not everyone , the majority probably believed that they were aryans, that they should rule the world ot in the same way now in russia, these victorious attitudes have taken over society, i don't think it will last forever, uh,

still, uh, these stories will be broken, and they will be broken by force, but for now, eh, that's how it looks putin's golden dream was to restore to the e-th century of the soviet union the empire that existed before, for this it was necessary to break ukraine for ukraine , other states would also fall and he wanted to be famous as the restorer of the soviet union, but the collector of soviet lands so easily got such as they say the blow is not unexpected, here we are, i am in this book. who are my ukrainians who claim the theory

that we ukrainians begin when three signs coincided with each other, these are genetic signs, a linguistic sign and an archaeological one, so of these three signs, the youngest is a linguistic one. but it is also very, very old, it is 45 centuries old, 45 centuries, it actually started immediately against the ukrainian language, immediately after the end of trypilly and in this book i mention about 60 words that came from the trypil language, they are now preserved in our lexicon. maybe a little in another pronunciation is er she she changes after all it does not stand still the language is er very such a thing that develops rapidly changes er but the remains er for researchers

are enough to recognize it er er yes er our identity is er during the last 45 centuries and we must protect we must protect must resist this confrontation has happened more than once now , for example, general luzhny is repeating to each other the tactics that our ancestors scythians er had er had then war with the king against the king percy darius further also means that he advanced on the territory of present-day ukraine, but our leader of the scythians and danfirs and donfirs was then in charge of this resistance, he exhausted exhausted this huge army of darius and

darius was forced to retreat , ashamed of something similar is happening in our land and now, and er, i proposed, we know that last year a decree was passed on the celebration of the statehood of ukraine. so , we must count the statehood of ukraine from the scythian times. i have several articles on this topic in ukraine, there are voices of the youth of ukraine, yes, from the scythian times, yes

, from those times. more than once we have crushed hordes of foreigners, we will grind 15. we can repeat, thank you very much, george. thank you for participating . thank you for a really interesting conversation. apply, find on the internet georgy black, books, who are we ukrainians, order, buy it, no, not advertising, it's simple, i advise you to choose to know more, georgy black was with us, a scientist, writer, local historian, here , the audience asked, how old is kyiv anyway? said that it could be 1,700 according to one version, and it could be 3,000 years, and according to another version, we need to investigate the simple question that when there are certain artifacts in ukraine, in kyiv , arctic excavations are being carried out, then it is not possible

throw everything away and build an office center or a shopping center on that place, because well, i was in the city of tashkent, in samarkand , in uzbekistan, they don’t touch anything from the historical there at all. even if it’s some kind of clay hut in the center of tashkent, it won’t be demolished to put up there at all centers in the center of tashkent are being restored, on the contrary, their medical centers there are different . all these things in samarkand are also being restored and preserved. well, you can’t build a historical center . you can’t just like in london. our history well, we also have to respect to find out who we are to know ourselves but for this we need to deal with history, culture and science even in wartime, because it’s like churchill if we don’t finance culture and uh, then at all and what are we fighting for we have to know who we are, when we know that we are scythians, opa, we have more , daria is coming, we defeated macedonian , we stopped and we will expel russia . thank you

budgets this year will increase by uah 10 billion, according to the ministry of finance owners of destroyed and damaged property will not pay real estate tax, the relevant law has entered into force, the ministry of reintegration of temporarily occupied territories informed that, although this does not apply to land plots, it will still be necessary to pay for them with supporting documents for tax exemption, there are acts after inspecting the object representatives of the local authorities, i would like to remind you that from january 1, you do not have to pay tax for housing located in the territory of active hostilities or in the zones of temporary

occupation, electricity tariffs will increase almost twice from june 1. the national commission, which takes care of this, has officially proposed a price of uah 2, 88 kopecks per kw . they say that this will make it possible to improve the financial performance of such energy companies as energoatom and ukrhydroenergo, but this is not the limit of the current dorozhchats and in the future according to forecasts experts will review the tariffs this year once again, there will be no default in america, we talked about this a lot in previous issues but in the usa, they finally agreed on raising the ceiling of the national debt, the agreement was announced the president of the country, joe biden, the vote on this bill will take place in the house of representatives on may 31, in the senate next week, i would like to remind you that the previously approved financial and military aid to ukraine for 2023 cannot be changed under any situation in the american economy

. i think this is a really important step forward it removes the threat of catastrophic reforms and protects our hard-earned economic recovery. in addition, this deal is also a compromise that means no one got everything they wanted. this deal is good news for of the american people, because it prevents the worst crisis and default for the first time in the history of our country from our issues in the future. on tuesday, we will speak with a representative of the analytical dixigroup, which analyzes the energy sector, what happened? therefore, in this international study, ukraine took the last place , that is, our country is not ready for such risks in the energy sector, the best situation in

romania, the study in ukraine presented as i already told dixigroup, and for this they studied 40 indicators in such areas as electricity, gas, oil , and fuel . well, now let's talk with the representative of e. greetings. yes, i am glad to hear and see. let's start by reminding the audience how traditional it is that we do it. what is a transparent sale? how does it differ from a transparent one? because they confuse us, we cannot get through in any way so as not to confuse them . let's define this separately. of course, it is transparent.

or transparently sales is a system of state electronic auctions for sales there leasing of property and assets we are sometimes confused with procurement transparently these are two different companies these are two different state companies they administer different platforms different e-e systems we really technically have something in common we work according to the principle of openness of information, the principle that everyone can see everything, but if it is transparent, then it is about purchases, then transparent sales - it is actually about the sale and sale of property. so what can you buy on the system what kind of lots are there? i saw, for example, that even some debris from a glass bridge in kyiv was sold at such a charity auction, you could buy it and this money then went to the army, but i understand that this is not

your main uh, not your main product yes, the fragment you mentioned is an example of charity auctions, which system of prozorro sales started you in the first place, wars, yes, yes , from time to time in our system, you can buy assets of this type, and all the money from these assets goes to the needs of the armed forces. but really, it is not ours. our specialized activity specialized activity is the implementation of e-e public and state property, today there are more than ten areas in our system e-e is working in a productive mode, this is for example land auctions, this is small privatization, this is the implementation of the property of bankrupts, this is , for example, the implementation of non-resisting

parks and so on further, that is, in general, during the entire period of operation, these directions a-a have brought more than uah 70 billion in revenues to the budgets of various levels, for what period do you say that 701 is currently working, e-e, the system began work at the end of 2016, and if we take only this year 2023 and in general to talk about the features of the system during a full-scale war, whether something has changed in its work or how you worked and are still working, see. at the beginning of the war, we really had a critical drop in the volume of realization of the volume of income in the period of february, march, april of the previous year for some directions, we had a squat almost 40 times compared to before the crisis, but now, luckily

, recovery is starting a little bit, of course, it is still quite far from visa indicators, but already now. for example if we talk about the 23rd year, then the system has already held successful auctions for almost 6 billion hryvnias, for comparison, the entire previous year of 2022 brought about 9 billion hryvnias, of which about 7 billion was actually for during the martial law, it can be stated that the dynamics is gradually improving a little slower than we probably wanted. but it is good that there is a positive movement, that is , sergei - it is a myth that during the war no one buys anything, the whole economy freezes

, investments do not come in. i understand that probably mostly internal and external investors buy, but we see that they are buying. well, if you say 6 billion at the beginning of this year and nine for the whole of last year, and this year has only just begun , there is not even half a year, then we see that people are buying, and last year we not all of them were with a full-scale invasion there, the beginning of the year was in such a standard, already familiar regime, not without war , of course, but we see that people are braver and invest funds, maybe they save their funds from inflation in this way, or what is the reason why people began to buy more. so we we are observing that the market is slowly reviving, indeed, the domestic investor is, uh, the investor is interested in acquiring assets even during

the war, uh, as you rightly pointed out, it is really necessary to understand that the purchasing power of the hryvnia is decreasing, and that is why some investors see it as more expedient, for example, not to keep this money on bank account and invest them, for example, in land or in real estate , so we can really state that even during the war, even in the conditions of economic recession, there is meaning and meaning to invest invest in business, develop your own business, and get additional resources to create jobs, and all this is also a part of our general economic recovery of the country. well, i encourage our viewers to also visit prozorro sale . as far as i understand, individuals can also

buy something there and participate in charity auctions, as we saw, and uh, choose what you like, buy, invest money. thus , let's move on to the actual news through which you and i agreed on this meeting - this is success the city of lviv for a transparent sale, this is the first city in ukraine that sold on prozorro for as many as billions of hryvnias. in what period was it possible to reach this figure? this is also from the very beginning of the system in the 16th year, or is it shorter ? how long did it take before that? the whole time of small privatization a small privatization in the prozorro sales system started in the second half of 2018 and the city of lviv was one of the first to announce lots for small privatization and actually implement them, therefore, for the whole time

of small privatization since august 2018 life at the beginning of this month, the city of lviv has earned an unprecedented 1 billion uah, the city of lviv is a champion in this regard, but we really hope that they will not stop there and that their example will also be inherited by other cities and regions of ukraine, that is, is it correct i understand that they mainly sold some old premises that were on the balance sheet of the city hall, they sold uh, shooting plots , not farms, uh, economic ones, because they can’t be sold, but under oblivion, maybe some kind of movable property, uh, is it possible to sell

some cars, something so old that maria may not need it, but they decided to sell and the right to lease property and plots of land can also be sold through your system absolutely yes. lviv mostly sold real estate, such as such iconic places in the center of the dar - in the old city, there are also some economic facilities , such as warehouses and garages, which can be used for production needs . in fact, lviv also very actively participates in land auctions, in particular, we see successful cases of auctions in the e-position on land plots in the city of lviv, e.e., lviv is also very active in leasing real estate, which is a certain alternative to the sale of e.e. property, therefore, in all main

directions, we can state that lviv is really showing good success, we can see how lviv has developed economically after a full-scale the reason for the invasion is not clear. because the wave of immigrants came everywhere and the population of lviv grew to 900,000 people from 700,000 people. the capital, kyiv, many people returned, more than 3 million people in kyiv, and it seemed that with such incomparable city sizes and the concentration of americans, kyiv should be in first place in any ranking , you get that lviv was the first to earn a billion not so with kyiv, why can't kyiv transparently sell

and rent e-e property or do they do it at all, in what amounts , see yes, we cooperate with kyiv, and kyiv also demonstrates activity in the prozorro sales system, if lviv is on the first place for us place in this ranking, kyiv is now in second place, why, for example, kyiv did not take the first place here, there really is, including uh , the problem that we talked about a little bit above, it’s hmmm, not always, not always, sellers or organizers understand the value from the realization of the object now, yes, because the conditions are not favorable, yes, because the investor can

give a price for the object that is not exactly what he expected and kyiv will continue in there is an active movement in this direction. and if we talk about other regions, uh, i suspect that you don’t want to name the worst ones, yes, no, we , let’s focus on the best . okay, who knows? lviv, kyiv, and who is the third leader, odesa is one of the leading places . yes, this is a really objective factor. i would also like to point out that

chernivtsi has now actively participated. again, we see quite successful auctions for the sale of building plots. cities that are managed in the best way property, and i must say that this rating includes not only cities of western countries, but also cities that were quite close to the contact line, and this also indicates that under any difficult conditions you can find tools and find a way to manage property and get a profit from it. the last topic we will discuss is actually whether your system can be scaled outside the country. i saw the news. what, for example , is our work? some kind of wonderful system will already be

used in other countries, it seems to say there about colombia, zambia, er, some not hmm, not western european countries . unfortunately, for now, although i think that europe also has something to learn from us, when you go to er, to old europe and see how everything there works slowly and is not digitized. we would like to advise them to use our systems for transparent sales , are there any chances for us to make money from this , or at least share our experience with other countries and teach them to sell transparently competitively without corruption in such competitions absolutely yes, we are now specifically in the stage of negotiations with some countries of both the developed world and developing countries, there is indeed an interest on the part of the governments of other countries regarding the implementation of the experience

that we have because transparent sales is a system that works on a turnkey basis and it is also technical the solution is also the legislative infrastructure, so we will gladly share our experience and, accordingly, we will also try to earn something from this, we will wait for good news. sergiu thank you sergiu booth, the head of transparent sales, transparent sale was on our air, this is a state enterprise which helps both the state and the central authorities, and it is my priority to sell property or lease it in transparent competitive auctions. i am andrii yanitskyi , the economic presenter of the academic rado or
