has provided our country with almost 7.3 billion in military , economic and humanitarian aid. the slogan "don't be afraid to live", which workers were inspired by the song of people's artist of ukraine maria burmaka, from now on, listeners will be able to enjoy author's acoustic concerts with updated playlists as well as easy-to-listen short news , on september 18 we are entering a new season, a special season for us. the podium that works for us is both a stage and a platform for interactive communication and content for youtube, but today it will actually be a concert platform because we

will be the first radio station that will regularly do your own acoustic concerts bite yourself on the paw this is how the crocodile that was evacuated from zaporizhzhia was injured how the lviv shelter cares for and treats the exotic predator let's see further meet this crocodile justin he lives in the home of rescued animals since last summer the workers of the lviv shelter took the reptile out of the zaporizhia zoo because there the animals lived in constant stress due to the russian shelling, we caught him by hand. it's good that we have a dog leash on which we were able to take the muzzle and scotch he simply already then by hand the possibilities er whole trailers he drove separately in a separate trailer a two-meter crocodile weighing 75 kg settled in an individual terrarium they feed him with chicken, rabbit meat and duck meat the crocodile is the largest crocodile in the world er

he has 10 years ago his they were smuggled to the crimea, and with age they were already in zaporizhzhia, now he is 10 years old, they live for about 70 5 years, he grows up to the holiday minimum, however , an unfortunate incident happened here with justin, he bit himself on the back paw and injured his fingers to the shelter audience they treat the crocodile with a course of antibiotics, they have two days, never, uh, no surgery has been scheduled yet, we hope that the antibiotics will help, we see a good result, we still have 10 days of antibiotics, and after that, the specialists will decide whether to actually take this paw or not we will be able to save a thousand animals living in the shelter that have suffered at the hands of people or their activities, 700 of them have been evacuated or brought

from the frontline regions, families need help more than ever, we probably don't remember such difficult times due to the fact that the donations of people have decreased significantly. that is, if we write some kind of admission about the collection, it is simply zero in the home of the rescued animals. here in critical conditions, so they need treatment, you can support the shelter using the details that you can see on the screen kateryna oliynyk nazar melnyk espresso tv channel and i will remind you about the important collection of the espresso tv channel and the spring charity fund raising funds for the purchase of modern kamikaze drones for our uav scouts are needed by the 23rd separate rifle battalion of the armed forces of ukraine, which is fighting in the hot donetsk direction

, it is three years old and about t years old. more than 700,000 uah have been collected. we ask you to actively donate and our defenders report the losses of the enemy. for now, this is all the news that i have time to tell you and they will continue their marathon. telethon, we will now also talk about what is happening not only at the front , but also about some political moments, we will certainly touch on them. this is volodymyr omelyan, a military man, a politician and a diplomat, is mr. volodymyr with us

yet, tell me now, we are still recruiting him , in the meantime, i want to say that the data is being confirmed so that, uh, there will be explosions in sevastopol again we still do not know the details. there is still smoke over the city. it is also reported that explosions were heard before the announcement of the air alert , which is now sounding, but uh, that means that the radars could not detect the approach of the axis again, some rockets happened again, in a word, again some interesting information from sevastopol and air defense in this city, so to speak, the city of russian glory, as they say in russian, the occupiers are not working

. a large paratrooper ship was destroyed, one of them was actually destroyed. there was little left of it. everything was burned out. the submarine was actually destroyed. it was an electric-diesel submarine that actually struck ukraine with calibers in its time. well, in a word, great success in crimea, great success in to the black sea base of the black sea fleet of the russian federation, this is of course extremely pleasant news, unusually pleasant information, and we will also monitor this and the reaction, in particular, in the russian federation. well, i want to say of course, interesting things also happen in ukraine. i read to you that denis myhal has already announced that the government is going to reform the pension fund next year, which will increase pensions to 50% of the salary that a person received before retirement. i really don't quite understand what this is. means 50% of the salary, because

a person could, for example, receive, i don't know , 150 rubles for the ussr and 150 rubles , for example, received there before zhenya hryvnias, i don't know the salary, 2 million coupons and so on there she received, for example, on average there, i don't know there 5 7 10 15,000 hryvnias before retirement, well, let's just imagine such a situation as these sums should be, at what exchange rate, reduced to some common common denominator and how should 50% be deducted from them. well, these are such fantasies so far, but the question is that , on the one hand, the personal income tax is being taken away from us, and that is, the main source of income in the communities, and this is due to the fact that a lot of people are now mobilized in this community and these people

are mobilized if they are they are on the front line they receive a sufficiently high salary in accordance with this salary, as it is the income of individuals, it is subject to this tax , and this tax appears to be 18%. how much is this white money, the salary is in envelopes, it already goes to the budgets of local local authorities and it is really serious money, well, but you see 48 billion dollars . this is such a hole in the budget of ukraine now, and extremely it is covered by western aid, but recently he said danilov, the head of the nsdc, that we don't have a plan in case the aid to ukraine stops. and that's because such a moment is very dangerous for me . volodymyr omelyan is already joining us . i was alarmed to hear from mr. danilov

, the chairman of the security council, the secretary of the security council , i apologize, who said that we do not have a plan in case the west starts to reduce our aid, in particular, financial and military, by the way a very interesting article was published somewhere. i don't know if you had the time and opportunity to read it. it is an editorial about the need to start changing the opinion about ukraine, now think about rethinking our approaches to ukraine, since the article is actually about preparing for a scenario where the war will not last for years, but for many years , and this means that ukraine must find a way to be resistant, successful, develop and even prosper, as the authors of the article write .

under such conditions, and when at the same time the secretary of the national security and defense council tells us that we have no plan , if they stop giving us money and weapons, it’s the end for me, it’s not if it’s scary to hear a little. well , in fact, there is a war, and somewhere centuries ago , it seems to me that ukrainians do not need to read economists for this they just need to know their own history, that russia will not retreat, that even if russia does not, there will be some other threat from the east, and we are the outpost of civilization that will be the first to be hit, and for our survival strategy it is extremely important to have a powerful state with a strong economy surrounded by a belt of friendly or neutral states, of course russia can never be friendly in principle, but the pieces of russia are transformed after its disintegration, we need and will control them and influence their development so that they are at least conditionally democratic and this will be our

security regarding the current situation, uben's plan , unfortunately, was announced by the president behind closed doors in congress, and it was quoted by american politicians that if they force us to help, we will lose if we don't was pessimistic, but in fact you should calculate this factor and first of all thank the west for the support and do everything so that the defense feels that we have a reliable and consistent partner. this feeling can be based not only on trust. i have, let's say, we have more skepticism about the existence of trust in ukraine, specifically the ukrainian authorities , a lot of work still needs to be done on this. and when we all came to the conclusion that the war will be long, it means that we must finally switch to a war economy it is still not there and preparing a plan for the reconstruction of ukraine when it will be, let's say less active phase of the war, this plan is still not

there either, despite the fact that it has been promised repeatedly. this is the second year in a row that i have heard promises that next month we will have a plan for reconstruction . we actually already have a whole the super minister was created for this, but the plan itself still does not exist. and this is a real problem, because a strong economy without a strong industry will not have the right to life. look, if they are realists, what do they write about? for in our case, those plans for reconstruction, they mostly amounted to the fact that the war will end and we will rebuild, rebuild, rebuild all the destroyed cities and villages there in the east and so on and in the south and so on and the like , but in general this is what the author is called to do city ​​icons, they say that it is necessary to rebuild now, but rebuilding means that if you provide reliable air defense cover for more regions in the east, for example, in the west of ukraine in the center

of ukraine, then you have to postpone the relocation enterprises and so on in this safe region. what should we do now without waiting for marshall's plans to be conditional and so on ? that is, this is a plan, this is a plan. instead, we see flashing statements that we are going to raise the pension next year, and i apologize for this gives me a bit of pre-election rhetoric because our pensions are being increased by 50 billion, now there is a hole in the budget of dollars and we are told that our pensions will be increased again, i don't know from what money score help from the taxpayers of the united states of the european union. they already said this in america. we want to raise the pension, write us even more dollars. well, we told america that , uh, we don't steal your money, we only put our own, that's why we are ukrainian

patriots, that's how it sounded in one from recent interviews with the president, i don't know that the ukrainians themselves approve of such an approach, because when they distribute all the money for such ukrainian taxes, they will have to ask for more from the west, that is, such taxes, er, secondly, well, you know my personal conviction we don't have a clear plan, because no matter what anyone says, but when you don't have an understanding of what you're doing, you won't build anything good, and here the question is not whether you have air defense protection in western ukraine and central ukraine, or all of ukraine, if you don't have an understanding of this what are the strategic branches of industry where people will get work and where do they return, this is not just a matter of mechanical reconstruction of the destroyed i do not want to rebuild the soviet past and we must see what we are doing and what resources we have then what period of time do we do it and the main thing is that all this should be based on

an efficient state in a state with the rule of law with adequate power and with er normal organization of work, there is none of this either, we see what happened in the united states, it was actually a visit of a cold soul, that is, there are no more cheerful hugs, jokes and everything else, our partners ask us about our work, and work is not only at the front , we continue to fight heroically, but work in the rear, and with this we have huge problems, i really you know, sometimes you get stuck and you think how much the boundaries of some reality have moved in our country, that is, we have all already completely agreed, for example, we are used to the idea and perceive it as the norm that we have, on the one hand, i am saying today the prime minister of shmygalska said, but well, everyone understands that in fact it is the head of the executive power, now they are sneaking around that the executive power is not the cabinet of ministers, that

it is rather the managers who are under the executive power, which is completely concentrated now in the office of the president. is this normal, why the question is not even whether it can work effectively in the country to the end , or whether the administration of the state has become more effective as a result of such decisions when we have such manual management based on the principle of loyalty . they know the situation in the office better, in particular from ukrainian pravda, that it looks like someone just happens to be in zelenskyi's office and can tell such an exciting project for the future, such a hyper super plan and this and that i liked it wow cool it works let's go here's a carte blanche do something well look if speaking from a distance this is exactly the way the show went to singapore to its success yes the treatment was a dictator so who gathered smart friends around him some of them he

planted but built a super effective the state, nevertheless, it is a state with pronounced autocratic things, if you do not agree with the policy of the government, then you either go to prison or are forced to emigrate . this is what is happening in ukraine. this is the concentration of all branches of government under one bird, it is not only about the executive branch, this right is about the legislative branch, in the end, in the end, the fact that i hear the latest news from zbu and the fact that koluzhynskyi went to the army, well, this means that nabu is also now under the same roof as the president's office, that is, in fact for the destruction of the anti-corruption infrastructure and those who steal can receive carte blanche for any actions eh, is this really such a problem, or in fact , we do not see bright intellectuals in power eh . following the example of the same treatment or other hapologets of modern economic thought we

we see that he we see tatarova we see yermak well, sorry, they didn't graduate from oxford and to the inflectionals exactly they don't belong to the thing just this week it's been a hundred years since the birthday of the legendary and prime minister of singapore well, it seems to me that singapore is not can definitely be a model for ukraine, well, for many reasons, even reasons of banal demography - it is actually a state, a state, a city, where, more or less, the population is very compact in ukraine, there is a huge one, the country is very different, ukraine is very different. how do you remember the treatments? one fugitive president liked yanukovych, he thought it was a good example, maybe someone else likes it again . we don't know. well, i know that many representatives, for example , servants of the people, have his portrait hanging in their offices. i really don't know what it means to them like

they are me. i'm not sure that they recognize him by the portrait, but they just gave him food, that is, they were drinking, uh, if we still talk about this ghost of uh, possible elections in 2024, what do you think about it? i understand that on the one hand, there is definitely to our partners which they see that we have a non-functional cabinet of ministers deprived of powers, although according to the constitution, well, it should be a parliamentary-presidential republic, they who see that the parliament is also in fact dysfunctional, surely they would like some kind of restart of normal democracy even in war conditions, but well, in us there are very serious fears, of course, the need for before the start of the government has already matured and we see that the number of mistakes and examples of corruption is simply terrifying from the other side of the election during the active phase of the war, it is extremely dangerous, first of all, because normal political competition

is cut off, a huge segment will not be able to take part in military elections, a huge number of candidates will not be able to adequately conduct polemics , because it will inflame society and , let's say, talk frankly about many problems that yes, today will also be dangerous, not only for the current government, but also for the state itself, because during an offensive or active defense, this is not done, therefore , it seems to me that despite the wishes of individuals as to hold elections as soon as possible and thus preserve one's position in power for five more years, and as someone who dreams for 10-15 years, it is still worth gritting your teeth to wait for the end of the war, or let's say a decrease in the intensity of military operations and then should the free media have a normal political struggle, having the rule of law and eventually having corrupt people in prisons, because i have the impression that kolomoisky was removed the day

the connection will come out. in particular with the state audit and his the manager, the manager, more precisely, and now literally today, i heard that, for example, in the blue-lipped manager of ova kharkivska , a new deputy appeared, who before that worked for murayev in the headquarters. literally, in order to get into power now, get on some kind of social elevator, so to speak, it is necessary to be in the background to have a record of some kind there. youth there, i don’t know. party of regions there in some there 15th year. security since the first days of the war in ukraine, there was a check of the authorities for integrity in the context of working

for the cream, and this should have applied to all periods from 1991 to 2022, of course, these people were held in prison or in prison, and for the rest of the 15+ years , unfortunately, this did not happen and we see that more and more of these people, under different sauces, are crossing out whether ten years of their biography suddenly return to power or near power, these are not good examples , we are also following them and this will be the subject of a separate serious conversation, unfortunately it is possible after the war, volodymyr, everyone asks about our diplomatic front . although i don’t know, there are actually quite valid objections not to use the front in any other sense than the front where hostilities take place. i understand these appeals, they are valid because it is always to compare - what about the exploits

of our soldiers at the front, it would be a bit of blasphemy , and the economic front is cultural, this is what makes sense, but where it is really possible, it is worth refraining from such comparisons and such metaphors, even diplomatically on the thematic stage or arena, we now have a serious deterioration of relations with poland . can we afford it? and is this not even to a certain extent a purely human factor, in particular , is the style of communication sufficiently undiplomatic of the ukrainian corps or does it not play a bad role now well, it seems to me that mr. mykola knyazhytsky described this situation best in his recent post on facebook, but from my point of view, what is happening is definitely based on the political situation in poland itself, which in in the acute phase of the elections, but also, unfortunately , there is an extremely clumsy foreign policy

of ukraine, and this is the foreign policy not only of the ministry of foreign affairs, but also of
