[000:00:00;00] in some corners, they made a statement that it is impossible to restore ties, let's say, in one meeting. and they are not working in this direction, and at the same time, in the house of commons of the british parliament, they call taiwan an independent state, which of course infuriates china. well, in fact , the two countries do not have simple relations, because it is golden the era under prime minister cameron turned into an era that was constantly falling downwards, and to a large extent this is connected with the events of the 19th year, when china suppressed the autonomy of the country with absolutely such harsh methods hong kong, despite the fact that there was an agreement between the two countries that hong kong with its rights of such autonomy would receive this operation of rights for 45 years, and accordingly this

agreement was very harshly suppressed and it must be said that at that moment, after all , great britain reacted very weakly like the others western countries and china managed not only to completely destroy the e-e tuposition that supported these speeches and not only to destroy today a lot of people are in prison and e-e china has established direct management through bodies that absolutely planted and, accordingly, between the two countries, there cannot be a return to such good relations and to business as such . nevertheless, you and i see today that a number of western countries, despite the fact that they are actively changing their approaches to interaction with china after all, they cannot refuse

a dialogue with him, and understanding that china is a large and important influential country, in addition , china is very closely tied to economic relations with each of them, and as for great britain, for example, it is the second trade partner after the conjugated and america, because after brexit, great britain tried to cooperate closely and find markets in china, and that is, on the one hand, we see pressure and the need for business to develop some rules of interaction, given that the situation in china is changing, given that china is beginning to put more and more pressure on foreign companies in matters of so-called security, and this very seriously affects their work, and on the other hand, in great britain, the current prime minister and minister of foreign affairs , as a person who represents him, are

under pressure from parliamentarians and the public in the issue of the need to speak more harshly with china, and you rightly and rightly said that just during the visit, the house of commons called taiwan an independent state and called on its leaders, the government of this country to help taiwan more actively, it is obvious that this is such an issue. it is so irritating for china what should we establish in some close contacts? is it somehow very nice to restore relations against such a background? well, actually speaking, uh, and inside great britain there are many questions for its government, because the press , for example, which wrote about this visit, is spread a lot of comments about the fact that great britain currently has an exchange. actually, to develop a strategy

for relations with china , the government should already react to the fact that china is not what it used to be, and security issues , human rights issues, they should become in the basis of all this, and therefore, on the one hand, this visit was called in some way to actually level relations or establish a dialogue at the level of higher officials, because, for example , the prime minister of great britain is the only one of leaders of the g7 who have not yet met in the sixth party and in the country hoped that this visit , even if short, could take place during the g20 in india, it became known that all dolphin is not going there and again this visit will be postponed and, accordingly , there will be others in great britain and the processes regarding the meeting regarding these relations is a plus, you know, the country is not part of the european

union, and accordingly, if european countries, on the one hand, they have developed their approach to china at the level of european structures, and now each of them is trying in accordance with the common vision, somehow gradually moving to new approaches. for example, even germany, which is economically very close to china, has today developed its own strategy, which talks about security issues, risk reduction, then great britain . it stands aside because it does not belong to this group, on the other hand, it is under by the pressure of the united states, which has to react harshly to everything that happens in e.e. china , and therefore it is now in such a situation when it has to develop its own view, which cannot be approximated from the other party still has to take into account the interests that in any case connect it with

china, and in particular the economic ones. this is such a heavy-weight balance today in every chest of great britain, including thank you thank you ms. natalya natalya plaksienko butyr expert on issues of the eastern asia, we have been in touch , we will be back. literally in a few minutes, stay with us and continue ukraine on megogo at the legendary sansiro stadium, our national team will impress the italian audience with a bright game, watch the super match of the euro 2024 selection on september 12 at 9 p.m. megogo, it's hard to talk about what you feel when you have urinary incontinence, an unpleasant situation can arise at any time, even with a slight effort, fortunately - this is behind me, uro feminost helped me thanks to the natural ingredients, uro feminost helps

, and italy portnikova's comments are always professional and analytical on the most important events of this week and we will start with today's event . by taking it abroad during the years 2013-20, at least this is what the special services say, allegedly using the infrastructure of controlled banking to him, he took half a billion hryvnias abroad in the shevchenkivskiy district court of kyiv, they choose a preventive measure for him, now, in fact, ihor kolomoiskyi is sitting on the dock , vitaly, did you expect it to come to this? e of the united states because both in terms of influence on

political processes and in terms of the ability, i said to turn the table over, kolomoisky can be compared on the ukrainian scale , of course, with e-e donald well, by the way, it can be compared to donald trump also in connection with the claims against kolomoiskyi, the american justice itself, because it is worth reminding that personal sanctions were introduced against kolomoiskyi in the united states, it was done by the current secretary of state of the united states blinkin, but we know that these sanctions were being prepared under previous administrations and as we all know very well, when our officials said, well, let's investigate, the americans, the americans said, and i'm sorry, you are investigating because these sanctions related to the actions of kolomoiskyi on your territory, and it was to play the proceedings like this, and we are introducing sanctions against him

because he is not an american citizen. by the way, is kolomoiskyi a citizen now, or was he really given ukrainian citizenship along with several other people, or... they didn’t tell us because we don’t know this, it’s also a huge secret and we don’t really understand it. and what kind of passports does igor kolomoiskyi have? does he have his cypriot citizenship? secrets, the president is flying to the united states at the end of september, this will be an important trip, this trip will be connected with his speech at the session of the united nations general assembly, we understand that it is always the same, and the trips are also designed for dialogue with american high-ranking officials, and i really wanted to that during such a visit there would be a meeting between president zelensky and president bider, and it is clear that when such negotiations occur, of course, there are always

issues that the united states is concerned about from an internal political point of view, because no one wants this money, which is provided to us by the united states, the european countries, which they somehow know , everywhere, the fingers flow somewhere and fall into the pockets of influential oligarchs who are somehow connected to the well-known processes of 2019 and therefore it is impossible to answer the question forever this is the result just when all the heads of the anti-corruption structures of ukraine are all in the united states of america and just today they met with the president's politician on the staff of national security issues and once again it was shown that the americans are quite

seriously interested in the fact that ukraine followed the anti-corruption path, but it is clear what the security service of ukraine does there directly because, after all , our anti-corruption bodies were created in order to investigate such cases, both officials and directly according to this article, they say that it is possible that they were handed over to the sbu in order to be able to somehow close this case as a result, and then, on the other hand , the jurisdiction of the sbu is also clear . time but one way or another i can if this episode is related to his activities as a public official and his activities as a businessman is a completely different story well, let's see what

this is all about big fish and well, let's be honest, ihor kolomoiskyi was not touched during these years while in the position of volodymyr zelenskyi, although there were complaints against him. and why, why, why are they not opening proceedings against ihor kolomoiskyi, but now we saw that kolomoiskyi was searched in connection with this case in february 8 months have passed since 2023, today is already september, and here is the suspicion for the first time . yes, i wonder how the pre-trial investigation will continue. well, in general, what kind of preventive measure will they choose for him for such a serious enough article, i am also following this i propose to go further, in particular to discuss the topic of the fact that volodymyr zelenskyi said for the first time that he would run for a second term and as far as i understand, if the elections are held during the war directly and immediately, the country is divided into two camps, and some who

are not supporters of zelenskyi say well, you promised for one term, the one who holds on to the power by the chair has come again, on the other side , those who are supporters of zelensky say that well, how can he leave the country during the war ? well, let's start with a statement the simple fact that no presidential or parliamentary elections can take place during a war, and if volodymyr zelenskyi says that he will run for office if the elections are held during a war, we can take this as an answer to the question posed . and you will run for the position of president if the elections are held during the war well, of course , where can i run to during the war? but it seems to me that you and i all understand very well that elections cannot be held during a war, neither for the head of the state nor for the verkhovna rada well, by the way, from the point of view of the term of authority, as far as i remember, the term of the full verkhovna rada comes up earlier, you need to start from this

and think about what to do with it. well, look, there are several very important prerequisites for carrying out any cases, the first prerequisite it must be related to the abolition of martial law, if martial law is not abolished , if it continues, then several questions arise at once. can we place all our polling stations in bomb shelters, what to do if the polling station is not located in a bomb shelter, and there is an air -raid alarm, if its work is interrupted during an air-raid alarm, how to ensure that if you want a clean procedure, then the members of the commission must leave all these documents with all this in the premises of the election commission move on to

another place in normal peacetime, it always created certain er cautions that incredible falsification of election results where did they go here they can't even stay if this is a long air alarm, how can citizens fulfill this duty, or can the elections be held in several stages, several days but this also requires certain questions, then these are logistical things , obviously, how to conduct elections on the front line. does this mean that we have to deprive our compatriots who are fighting in the armed forces of ukraine, the right to vote, how to hold elections among those 7 million ukrainians who are outside the borders of ukraine, does that mean that we should deprive these people of the right to vote, they say, oh, let them go they don't vote, i heard such comments. well, i'm very sorry, but there was always an opportunity to vote for ukrainians abroad, and secondly, there is

a state that was unable to ensure the safety of these citizens and told them to enter to save themselves from a war for which we were so unprepared to to protect you so that your territory is not already occupied. of course , they wouldn't just leave. they don't want to be here. this is a problem . we won't blame you. at this moment she says no, you know you won't vote well, i'm sorry for that, all the more so she won't return why , well, she will return, but it's absolutely illegal but again, how and how to ensure 7 million people where such a polling station is in poland so that everyone did they have time to vote? do people again have to go to the polling stations for several days in a row to come to the places where they will be organized? this is a whole story. there are not only logistical

problems, but also legislative problems. well, let's say we changed the legislation and allowed elections to be held. during martial law, that is, they changed the law on martial law, but there is a constitution of ukraine that clearly states that the verkhovna rada of ukraine, which was elected before the introduction of martial law in the country, can work until the end of this martial law and transfer its powers to those deputies who will be elected after that if deputies are elected during martial law, the question arises whether they can take an oath because this verkhovna rada i would tell the constitution to ensure that it should work all the time of military station, that is already it's much more difficult, it's a couple of years of work. well, it's a year and a half, if it's supposed to be one session, then you'll be there for a second session. 300 votes to the constitutional court must be confirmed

, as far as i remember, it has a date, a conclusion, well, it 's not an easy procedure, well, there's one more question , tell me all that overcome, but the question is not to hold elections in the russian federation, there will be damn elections now , even in the occupied territories , elections are held there, but in a democratic state , and by the way, this is also related to our constitutional right, elections must be free, free elections do not mean that you came to the polling station and cast a violent ballot, this was done even in the soviet union , this procedure has nothing to do with free elections - it is political competition, that is, this equal access of candidates to media propaganda propaganda in the struggle for power because the election of the president by parliament is a struggle

for power. politics is generally a struggle for power. you want to deprive another person of power and come to you. if you are running for the position of president of the country, you want volodymyr zelenskyi was not the president of ukraine, but for you to be, and he has to lose to you, it is your task if you do not want zelenskyi to lose that election, he is simply there as a sparing partner or understudy, these are not free elections, but elections in turkmenistan or uzbekistan, where they select competitors for the president of the country uh, so that he comfortably won the election with the results of 90%. but it has nothing to do with elections and democracy. it has nothing to do with it, and of course a country that conducts elections like that cannot be in the european union or nato anywhere, but we are there we say that in turkey there are cars , they are a trend but we saw how the elections were held there in a completely democratic way

. of turkey, that all the problems related to this person, that he is a corruptor, that he is a thief, that he is in prison at all, yes. the candidate for the position of president of ukraine, as well as deputies from the opposition forces, should talk about the current the authorities otherwise do not have the question of why they are not running for office, and they do not have the same opportunity, but the state is obliged to provide them with equal opportunities with itself, and this is what the president wants to do, he says, and i want it to be as transparent as during of the previous elections, when his predecessor in the position of president created all the conditions so that he could freely express his criticism and other candidates as well. and now it is interesting how to exercise this right, because we have the only marathon that is, in principle, controlled by the office

of the president, but here the question is not even that how to organize it, let's say they organized it. why organize it? how can you imagine that during the war, i am running for the position of president of ukraine and i am leaving . i have time in the only marathon, because as a candidate i have to write to the president for an hour a day or some kind of debate. i i say, friends, even the president of the country went to oman , negotiated with the patrosh, refused with putin, led to a war on a war on our land, a corrupt person placed his close people everywhere from the 95th quarter , so-and-so repeats everything that is true and everything that and it's not true, and the people who are at the front or who should be here in ukraine did not want to leave because they hope for victory, i think god. and this one is talking about the fact that we have such a terrible government and what we are fighting for. how is it possible that this government must be destroyed first

and then go to war. this is just a breakup of the state, and what does the president say? he comes out to listen. no, this candidate wrote to the president, he himself is corrupt, he is a scoundrel, he is in the service of the oligarchs, he is a russian agent. if he is a russian agent, you have the sbu there, why? he is not in prison then, what is going on, that is, such a split, yes, of course, this is the destruction of ukrainian statehood by holding free elections during wartime, in fact , it would be possible to introduce an article to the criminal code for such things, i agree with you. we ended the war , abolished martial law, returned to peaceful life, created a temporary investigative commission, which should, by the way , investigate all the actions of high-ranking officials during the war, so that this official commission of

representatives of the government and the opposition would give clear conclusions to prevent speculation. what did the president do, what did the minister of defense do, what did the military leaders do, what did the prime minister and the ultra member do, and after that . at least or at least not the entire territory of ukraine , let's say a victory in the spring of 2024. in the fall, we can hold elections. and what about the temporarily occupied territories, which, for example, were temporarily occupied for eight years and now they will already be freed, how to hold elections there if they are freed we do not know what part of the elections should take place in those territories, there will be no martial law in those territories where there will be martial law, there cannot be elections maybe in the part of the territory of ukraine that will be freed from occupation martial law

and citizens will be left for the citizens of ukraine living in this territory if these are not local elections presidential elections conditions will be created for them to vote in those territories there is no martial law well for of the president, ok, well, it somehow represents, and the elections to the verkhovna rada, well, it will be more difficult if it is based on open lists, it is more difficult if it is based on closed lists, it can also be a transitional period. it is easier, and i, from the point of view of the fact that those territories that were temporarily occupied, well, people lived there they have been in propaganda for many years. they can now bring the verkhovna rada to power, conditionally, some kind of updated police force. well, but you cannot punish people for the fact that the state allowed them to live under occupation, and then it also punishes them by depriving them of of voting rights, these are citizens of ukraine, if they are not citizens of ukraine , citizens of some other country of the russian federation, they do not take part in elections. and what is the difference between a person who

, say, has pro-ukrainian sympathies and lives in the city of luhansk from a person who has pro-russian sympathies and lives in the city of odesa? well, she was not in occupation, but russia is watching, rights are needed, but there may be collaborators, those who directly participated in the occupation of the territory, it takes time to find them and bring them to justice in us, people who are in prisons have the right to vote, that person can be a collaborator, but she can be convicted by the supreme court, but if she is a citizen of ukraine, she can vote in the city of detention for a person who will promise friendship with russia. this is her right as a citizen, well, it’s a long language to dislike, but this person can even lead such a party to power and this party will then declare a container if the article is treason , one should think differently. to get rid of such a plan, we cannot this is what the legislation looks like for us, citizens of ukraine do not have restrictions on their voting rights if

we do it on the basis of territorial e-e, well, this is what joseph and sorionovich stalin did, all citizens of ukraine, which of ukraine of the soviet union, who lived in the occupied territories. and this was the ukrainian ssr, all of them they filled in, there was something like this in the questionnaire, did you live in the occupied territories, and they wrote there that your relatives lived in copied theaters, if you wrote that, you were not accepted for certain jobs, you could not to serve in certain military units, you were not accepted into the wonderful communist party, well, that is, you were, uh, uh, just a dangerous person, sick, that's why you are a box for this country. we want to build exactly such a country , people of different political views live in the occupied territories, but i i assure you that people of different political parties live all over the territory, if we can of course just want to ban people who

support pro-russian views from voting for this is a great idea, but somehow it looks strange for a democratic person, they tell me that it is possible to temporarily cancel martial law temporarily, not during the time of elections , but i am curious. are you citizens abroad at this moment ? or two when the state tells the people well, we are playing for morgen like this. of course, the war is not over with us. but we want to be re-elected, so we pretend that we don't have a war and a missile attack. oh, that's it, actually. you have two or three months

you are afraid that you will be mobilized to overturn it legally. well, it is somehow strange, but i have a different situation for you. the state cancels martial law, but does not cancel the travel ban, and what result does it then get in the government elections? we are canceling and we already understand that this is a panarozhka , well, then you have to be here, you cannot leave , there is no martial law, but you know, for the transition period, we prohibit the departure of the mobilized nulovka, well, you forbid yourself . a person appears on tv who lives this is serfdom, i am the deputy of bortnik in bortnikov, if you elect me, i will completely change the order, i will release everyone, i will receive 80%
