11:02 pm
so we are already this topic was touched upon a little in the past , uh, our meetings about 50 billion euros from the european union. well, such a huge figure, and it was actually the biggest promise during of the london conference, in general, the western partners promised us 60 billion, and here 50 of them are the european union , it's all called a tool and a mechanism for supporting the restoration, reconstruction and modernization of ukraine . to say that until now we have received quite significant sums from the european union and, in principle, at the beginning of the war, if we take into account humanitarian aid , economic aid, military aid, aid of the european union as such
11:03 pm
the aid organization of individual e-e members of the european union, the amount is approximately 70 billion euros, this is quite substantial assistance , although it is clear that our needs are much greater and the situation, unfortunately, remains the economic situation, the military-political situation remains quite difficult, now directly with regard to the instrument well, until now , we received money that was allocated under various budget lines, so to speak , allocated under various programs that were used in the european union , including for assistance to all neighboring countries, that is, there is a special tool for supporting the neighborhood, from which we also received appropriate funds, so to speak. today, the european union is changing its e-e system of aid and has proposed a tool called precisely the tool for the recovery of ukraine. let's just call it the recovery of ukraine tool e- is an instrument for ukraine, which is designed for four years from the 24th to
11:04 pm
the 27th, this instrument will be part of the budget of the european union, which means that here we will have certain so to speak well, we already understand the supporting points for at least 4 years , we will receive these funds, and this tool will provide not only assistance in the current recovery, not only assistance in solving some strategic issues, but will also prepare ukraine before joining the european union. that is, it is already a tool that, on the one hand, helps us survive and helps us develop, and on the other hand, prepares us for membership in the eu. you say that it is designed for 4 years and will start working only from next year, i.e. this year, we will not see this money correctly, this year we will not see this money, and in principle, when we talk about these funds, let's not forget that for the time being, we are talking about the proposals of the european commission. this proposal was
11:05 pm
announced on june 21 at the london conference on the restoration of ukraine and now the final decision, the final directive regarding this proposal must be adopted by the european parliament and the council of the european union. i think that they will make these decisions , but you are right in saying that these funds are not will appear in the 23rd year, and the decision will not even be taken . i think there are no political issues here, but the fact that this instrument is very specific, it is specific in that the main amount of money will be spent on the so-called recovery plan of ukraine this recovery plan of ukraine is a list of concrete measures of political measures for political reforms in various spheres and of course various kinds of economic projects that ukraine must prepare and in which it must agree with
11:06 pm
the european commission, i.e. on the one hand money from the other side, the plan is agreed and the tool starts to work, we will talk about the plan, but i wanted to ask about the money, and we will have to return this money . is this a loan or is it an irrevocable grand ? of various different formats of providing money. of course, there will be funds that will be provided to ukraine as loans, and a significant part of the money will be issued in the form of grants , so in this case , it is too early to talk about loans in general, because it everything is in the process of formation, but at the same time the european union emphasizes that these funds will be provided to us on preferential terms, that is, yes, it will be a loan, but it will be a loan on preferential terms
11:07 pm
, we have prescribed the appropriate mechanism for how these funds will be attracted by the european union and how they will then be transferred to ukraine in principle , there are several ways of using these funds - first of all , the funds are related to reconstruction, this is the main part of the funds, and the second component of this tool is the so-called the so-called system or the conditions and investment activity in ukraine, that is, in fact, funds will be provided to strengthen investment processes, and the third direction is funds that will be provided in the form of technical assistance for the implementation of certain changes in the field of economic policy, management of the economy, and so on, this is actually the political block which you and i talked about , without which we will not be able to become members of the european union. well, as far as i understand , among these loans, european loans do not fly, they are not among the cheapest, and because if we compare you and i, it seems that they also talked about the international monetary fund , here
11:08 pm
is the international monetary fund, where it is on much worse terms. although they always believed that the international monetary fund is very favorable terms. well , of course, it is impossible to compare it with market credits. and modernization, let's talk more clearly about what it will look like, will it be some kind of document agreed between the european union and ukraine , something similar to a memorandum between the imf and ukraine , or in some other format, if carefully read the available documents of the vision recommendations of the european union, then first of all it will be a plan that is developed directly by ukraine, in contrast to , say, memorandums on economic cooperation that are developed in cooperation with the international monetary fund, and here there is a very active role on the part of our international donor, the international monetary fund this plan is the property of ukraine, this was emphasized several times further, this plan will be agreed with the european commission, which means that
11:09 pm
funds will be allocated on the basis of it funds will be allocated that quarterly and e-e, each request for the allocation of funds e-e will involve checking the use of previous grants, here it must be said that the plan must be absolutely specific, it must be somehow understandable to our donors why because it is directly tied to this, tied funding if to speak very briefly about the content, there will actually be four blocks, the first block is, so to speak , what kind of projects in general, and so on, the second block, which will have to be paid attention to. will answer and must take into account the needs of the regions, because this is a very important point that the plan must have a very strong regional emphasis, so to speak, and two blocks that will relate to the verification and compliance with the conditions
11:10 pm
of the plan and effective use of funds this is fundamentally important because compared to other funds that we receive today, this very plan and this economic cooperation, so to speak , will have greater conditions and a greater degree of control compared to other incomes to ukraine. well, this is exactly the kind of risk we see that in the news regularly there are some reports about corrupt acts or that something inefficiently was spent on procurement somewhere. we very often invite people who control procurement to our program, and this is always something to talk about, and in this case, this money will be given to our officials in the hands of the europeans, will they spend them independently, or what control mechanism is there so that the money does not really go somewhere wrong? in relation to the control mechanism, in principle, there are three levels of control , the first level of control means at the expense of
11:11 pm
this plan will finance the strengthening of our internal control functions of the work of the relevant institutions and so on, because if there is no control on the ground, no one from the side, yes to god, and this money will check the second point - this is a question of er control established by the european unions and since other donors will be involved in the implementation of this plan, in any case, it is planned that this plan will be the core element around which other donors will gather. if you can say so, they will directly set their conditions and finally, the third element will be the creation of an independent audit council by the european union specifically for this plan, which will monitor the use of funds, inform the european union about this, at the same time make recommendations to ukraine, and regarding the more effective issue of funds, there are two more very interesting points, which means that there are certain so-called threshold values, that is, if someone , some organization will receive funds there at the appropriate threshold value
11:12 pm
, they will say now and i don't remember what it is, then it will be necessary to provide full information about this a person or a company to the european union, plus the european union will have the right to check the implementation of this or that project at any stage, that is, the project begins . the european union can come and see what is happening there. procurement planning and so on and so on , that is, that is why i want to say that the level of control is, in any case, the declared level of control, the level of what is called air conditioners, that is, conditions the implementation of certain plans in this tool will be much higher than you than you and what ukraine was facing today, not games . of civil society as a non-state
11:13 pm
organization and we, as the media, will also monitor the costs of restoration and hope that all the money will be properly spent and nothing will be stolen ihor brukovsky, head of the institute of economic research and political of consultations was on the air of the espresso tv channel well, i am the host of this program andriy yanitskyi see you tomorrow morning together we will win i discounts on tempalgin tablets 20% in pharmacies podorozhnyk you and a two-in-one savings card when using it does not need to cut the nail and it is easy to apply twice a day it penetrates deeply, destroys, stops the reproduction of the fungus, brightens the color of the nail, a two -in-one nailer, this is a proven effectiveness, a noticeable result, convenient use, i'm back, i

11:19 pm
multimillion-dollar bribes and abuses have not yet been completed , why is it so difficult to bring the most corrupt judges to justice, we will tell you today, and first, to the news, the verdicts of ukrainian courts against russians who committed war crimes can be appealed due to the violation of the right to a fair trial, this was the conclusion reached by the monitors of the media initiative for human rights , which visited two dozen courts regarding war crimes crimes qualified under the article of violation of the laws and customs of war, human rights defenders say about the formal consideration of these cases, so they may not be recognized in the world for years . the problem is the speed of passing judgments . also, the appointed lawyers do not want to defend the russians, so the judges cannot evaluate the arguments of the defense because even though the russian military are undoubtedly criminals, they still have the right to
11:20 pm
a fair trial, however, if the ukrainian courts do not respect this right, then the accused will prove that ukraine violates the requirements of the special procedure of its investigation and consideration, the head of the heniche district court of the kherson region, yuliya berlimova, has sided with the occupiers and conducts proceedings under russian law. but she is still an active ukrainian judge and receives a judge's salary. berlinova took part in the competition for the position of head of the illegally created the russians elected another candidate for the head of the occupation court in the genichesk judicial body , timberlimov continues to be a judge there and probably received a russian passport, meanwhile in ukraine from the position of judge berlinov has not yet been dismissed, the judge of the donetsk district administrative court lyudmila arrestova has
11:21 pm
a russian passport and has spent more than 250 days in the crimea occupied by russia over the past four years. year on the basis of the so-called treaty on the admission of crimea to russia, according to which citizens of ukraine and stateless persons who at that time permanently lived on the peninsula were recognized as citizens of the russian federation, at the same time she also received an individual tax number, the arrestee told journalists that she did not receive another passport and assumed that it was issued to her automatically, instead, the journalists found out that the ukrainian judge used this russian visa at least once when she was tested for coronavirus lyudmila arrestova also assures that she is forced to go to the occupied crimea to visit her parents there
11:22 pm
, however, apparently not only in 2018, she celebrated the birthday of the daughter of judge lyudmila arrestova in a sevastopol cafe in 2001, she worked in sevastopol, first as an assistant prosecutor, later she rose to the position of deputy chief of staff of the local district administrative court, in 2013 she was appointed to a position in the court of the donetsk district administrative court after the occupation of donetsk in the 14th year, this court was transferred to slovyansk before the creation of a higher of the anti-corruption court , there were almost no sentences for judges in nabu cases in ukraine , instead, only in the last three years , more than 20
11:23 pm
officials of themis were brought to justice, they were convicted of corruption abuse of influence and driving under the influence and many of the most influential judges who are behind multimillion-dollar corruption schemes and have not yet been punished by all means to drag the roses of this case in court by submitting petitions or submitting there certificates from medical institutions that they are sick and cannot attend meetings, etc. the case of judge mykola chaus was illustrative. he was exposed for a bribe of 150,000 dollars back in 2016, but the sentence was passed only in june of this year. this is the same judge who hid money for in the garden in a three-liter jar, he managed to hide from justice for 7 years, he fled to moldova, was on international wanted list, then was under house arrest , fled from the investigation again, hid in the villages, was allegedly kidnapped by sbu employees
11:24 pm
, a real detective, in the end, the higher anti-corruption court sentenced chaus to 10 years of imprisonment with confiscation of property, but the former judge filed an appeal, so this is far from the end of the appeal story, if the appeal agrees with the conclusions of the court of first instance , mykola chaus will actually begin serving his punishment behind bars is because the decision of the appeal becomes valid and legally binding from the day of adoption of such a decision, the former chairman of the constitutional court , oleksandr tupytsky, is accused of committing a number of criminal offenses, in particular , false testimony combined with the artificial creation of defense evidence, bribery of a witness , the dbr also investigated arbitrary seizure of a plot of land on the territory of crimea and even
11:25 pm
of treason on july 16, 2021, oleksandr topicsky received a new suspicion of unauthorized interference in the automated tupytsky is currently wanted by the court system . last year , journalists found him in austria . he is accused of criminal offenses there, as well as false statements and the fact that he is currently in vienna. of three children, ukraine sent a request for extradition to the judge, however , the fate of this request is unknown. since december 2016
11:26 pm
, viktor tatskov, the former head of the high economic court of the yanukovych era, has been wanted for which ukrainian law enforcement officers incriminate crimes in the justice system, in particular, interference in the automated system of distribution of cases, he tactically subordinated the system of making court decisions to himself when yanukovych fled to russia, judge tatkov left for europe and currently lives in vienna, the investigation in his case continues and is still criminalized, interference in the auto-distribution of cases and the resolution of cases to the order of the business because the commercial courts actually decide all issues related to any disputes between enterprises and businesses and all at this time, the former judge does not give up hope not only to avoid justice, but also to wear the judge's mantle again, he filed numerous lawsuits in january 2021, the district administrative court of kyiv even reinstated him in his position, later this decision
11:27 pm
was canceled on appeal by the higher economic court , however, this is such a precedent which illustrates that even being under investigation for corruption cases and hiding abroad, judges still have power and a lot of leverage, yet one of the most odious the country's judges, the former head of the scandalous district administrative court of kyiv, pavla vovka, three years ago, vovka was informed of the suspicion of creating a criminal organization and captured the authorities. he is suspected, among other things , of making custom decisions and captured the authorities in the judicial system. system and during the years that the investigation has been going on, the wolf is not only at large and
11:28 pm
cynically ignores all court hearings, but he has not even been removed from the post of judge the district administrative court of kyiv headed by him has been liquidated, but pavlo vovk continues to receive a judge's salary and enjoy all the privileges of the minister of themis, in particular judicial immunity, when actual complaints were filed there until the beginning of 2022, then all these complaints remained unsatisfied by the council of justice, perhaps in particular because of pavlo's connections wolf with former members of the supreme council of justice, however , currently the supreme council of justice does not have the authority to consider e-e disciplinary proceedings and dismiss a judge precisely for by committing a disciplinary offense, if they do it, it will give hope that the examination of these treasures will lead to a decision on
11:29 pm
his release recently for a bribe . the head of the supreme court of ukraine, vsevolod knyazev, was arrested for almost 3 million dollars. he was immediately taken into custody with an unaffordable bail of 75 million hryvnias , the former judge is still in pre-trial detention, so there is a possibility that at least this case will be investigated and quickly brought to a verdict. do you know the facts of corruption in the judicial system, or do you want to tell about an unscrupulous judge, write to me on facebook or to the e-mail address whose address you see on your screens
11:30 pm
