9:30 am
who worked with this investor, i don't remember from which year, but i have been working on channel 1.1 for 16 years, and i remember very well in what period igor valeriyovych came to the channel, so it was after such, we call this is the romanian igo, and then the channel went up quickly, and not least, thanks to the non -interference in the work of this investor's channel, i remind you that at the beginning of this month, igor... mossky was announced as suspected of embezzling the funds of a private bank, he was served with a suspicion in money laundering and fraud. according to investigation in the period from 2013 to 2014, kolomoisky illegally took possession of the amount of uah 5.8 billion. he allegedly created a criminal group for this, which consisted of employees of the bank, of which he was the founder and shareholder. at the beginning of september, the shevchenkiv court of the city of kyiv chose a preventive measure for him in the form of detention ...' for a period of two months with the right
9:31 am
to deposit bail in the amount of a little over half a billion hryvnias. however, the sbbu later announced new facts of the oligarch's alleged criminal activity and informed him additional suspicion on three articles. it is about illegal actions with documents, seizure of other people's property and legalization of funds obtained through criminal means. after that, the court changed the amount of kolomoiskyi's bail from over half a billion hryvnias to almost 4 billion. i should note that kolomoiskyi's lawyers are dissatisfied with the decision, calling it unexpected and unmotivated, but the oligarch himself did not comment on the court's decision to journalists, saying that you heard everything yourself. at the same time, kolomoisky answered questions about his own citizenship and confirmed to journalists that he is a citizen cyprus and israel, as well as a citizen of ukraine, because he did not hand in his ukrainian passport. i will remind you that last year the ukrainian media wrote that the office of the president allegedly got rid of kolomai. ukrainian
9:32 am
citizenship. subsequently, people's deputy serhiy vlasenko published an allegedly relevant copy of zelenskyi's decree. let's talk about this matter further. vadym valko, a lawyer from the anti-corruption center, joined our broadcast. i congratulate you. congratulations. how do you assess the court's decision to keep kolomoiskyi in custody, is it really necessary, is there really a threat, for example that he can flee the country. well, directly the full text with the motives of the court. er, there is no, but it is obvious that in the case when the suspect is left in custody, er , well, even more so, the bail is quite significant, the court refers to certain risks that are provided for by law, this risk is possible concealment, and the court of first instance referred to the fact that kolomoiskyi has a passport of an israeli citizen, therefore he is not conscripted, he can leave the territory of ukraine, and it is free, and this is the possible risk
9:33 am
transition is manifested, there was also a question: regarding the possible pressure on witnesses, and in particular in this criminal proceeding , which is being investigated by the sbu, the bureau of economic security, the court gave permission to question the witness directly in the court session, during the pre-trial investigation, because there was a threat to the life and health of this witness from unknown persons, as written in the court decision, that is, it is possible that this risk of witnesses is also preserved, well , there are risks, the destruction of certain documents or their distortion, they also exist, at present moment, at least that's what the court and the prosecutor's office think, that's why this is all probably the reason why kolymoysky remained in custody, and how can you evaluate the participation in the meeting of journalists 1.1, ex-minister of culture and also people's deputy from the servant of the people serhii demchenko, the fact that, for example, a deputy from a specific party supports kolomoisky , from hearsay, does this mean anything, and what does the support of journalists mean, is it generally such a precedent that journalists in the country ... protect the oligarch and even
9:34 am
want to bail him out, well needed here divide the issue into who can be a guarantor, in principle, it can be any person who has submitted a relevant application and can really influence the suspect to fulfill the duties that the court determines for him in the court decision, well, in particular, to come there for all interrogations, to come to court sessions, and again not to leave the boundaries of a certain city there, if the court has prescribed it. and another question, whether there is no subordination of these guarantors with the person whom they take the strain, because it is obvious that the subordinate is not can properly ensure the fulfillment of the duties of the person who has power over it, well, in this case, regarding journalists, most of these journalists, they work at the tv channel, of which kolomoisky is a shareholder, accordingly, it is difficult for me to imagine how exactly they can ensure the fulfillment production obligations.
9:35 am
for example, if kolomoisky was released from custody under house arrest, this is the first, uh, well, and the second, uh, it is unlikely that there is simply information about the place of residence, that some guarantors said that we know where he is alive, we know his contacts, it may be a sufficient condition that, again , they will ensure that he fulfills all obligations if the courts let him go, so on the one hand the law does not prohibit, but on the other hand we understand that in principle , well, journalists who are connected in one way or another by certain authority and subordination to kolomoisky, so in this part of the decision seems clear and logical to me. vadim, does the fact that it is conducted by prosecutors of the sbu and the economic security bureau affect the pace and quality of the investigation? the office of the prosecutor general, because as journalists and activists say, in particular in the publications upa, up, ukrainian pravda, which are under the control of the office of the president, the authorities of the kolomoiskyi case literally transferred to nabu, to
9:36 am
an independent body, and here it is worth adding that the bureau of economic of security answered there the question of the ukrainian truth that their case in no way hinders the activities of detectives in such a position, but nevertheless, journalists and activists talk about such competition in this case, well, there really is in to the public, at least information from sources in the law enforcement agencies, that they were preparing the suspicion of kolomoisky for august 24 , that they were preparing the suspicion, they learned, as i understand it, both in the office of the president, and in the security service of ukraine and the bureau of economic security, accordingly, they came out with their suspicion faster, it seems that this very suspicion was being prepared, well, really in such a short period of time, because the case was registered only on august 11, there was already a suspicion on september 2, well, if you compare that to the case of nabu, then in the case of naboo from the moment this case came to the detectives to the moment of suspicion, years passed , and four years and less than a month, it is obvious
9:37 am
that the quality of the evidence base will be radically different, and there is a version that it was done specifically to win in the first place information plan. whether the sbu and b were the first to come to kolomoiskyi, and secondly, to lock him up in the detention center of the security service of ukraine, where free access for detectives will not be possible to get to kolomoiskyi, they should receive the appropriate permission from the investigators in the case, well, the control over this detention center is carried out by the leadership of the security service of ukraine, and this is not something that complicates the work for nabu too much, but even to communicate confidentially there, well, on... normally a detective with kolomoisky in case for example, if he wanted to give some kind of testimony or make some sort of deal , it would be practically impossible, and what do you think are the prospects of this case, can we really see kolomoisky behind bars after the court decision in favor of the detectives,
9:38 am
well, so far everything looks like kolomoiskyi will indeed spend the next few months in custody at least, but...' the criminal process, it is characterized by the fact that it does not happen for a month or two from the moment when the suspicion was given to the moment when it was decided the verdict, it is obvious that there are still several months , that the pre-trial investigation will take place no less, because it is impossible to collect all the evidence again in a month and a half, and only after the prosecutor's office there admits that all the evidence that we could have collected, after that they will be prepare the indictment, complete the investigation, then the defense will be with... with all these evidences and materials and only after that the case will go to court, where again, from my experience, such cases are considered, well , not in a few months, it is a year and more, therefore, if there is this potential opportunity to go to prison there in the future
9:39 am
, then again, this is not a question of this year and not of the next, even for sure, i want to clarify more, because there is an opinion that this case is demonstrative for western partners, in particular for the united states, a country that, back in march 2001, 2021, introduced sanctions against kolomoisky and his closest relatives, do you agree with this opinion, well, it is obvious that any international partners there will monitor such cases, because in essence , this is the first in the history of our country, er, such an influential person, yes, such an influential person is given suspicion, they choose to keep her in custody, put her in sizo, and on the one hand, this is a big risk that there may be some political motives in case, so that it does not turn into an unproven one, but a political case, on the other hand, this is the case there, if the evidence is really
9:40 am
carefully collected, and the cases are submitted to the court , and the court, after a full comprehensive investigation, passes a guilty verdict, and kolomoisky will actually go to prison, for example, this there will be a very clear signal. firstly, to other influential and rich people in ukraine that there are no untouchables and secondly, that there is the inevitability of responsibility and punishment for actions that could even have been committed there five or six years ago. and this is a signal for investors. that is, until to draw conclusions about the fact that this is a political matter there or not and so on, it is necessary to follow how it will happen, and there will be an investigation and a court. i thank you for joining and explaining the details of the case of ihor kolomoiskyi. vadym velko, a lawyer at the anti-corruption center, was a guest on our broadcast. the united states of america plans to provide more than half a billion dollars in aid to the energy sector of ukraine. evidence of this. a memorandum was signed between the usa and ukraine, of which more than 400 million will be provided
9:41 am
without conditions, and another 100 million under conditions of performance certain steps. it is about the reforms that ukraine must carry out by april next year. yes, it is necessary to streamline the work of the operator of the gts of ukraine, a monopoly gas supply company, to reorganize the state-owned enterprise energaatum into a public joint-stock company, and the national commission on state should undergo certain changes in its activities. regulation of energy in the sphere of the wholesale energetic energy market, but the costs have been received, it will be possible to spend the received funds on the restoration of damaged infrastructure as a result of russian strikes on energy of ukraine. so far, ukraine has spent about a billion dollars on the repair of ukraine's energy equipment, the ministry of energy says about it, and the day before, the head of ukrenergo volodymyr kudrytskyi named this figure. experts assume that we will not be able to get through the winter without blackouts, even if there are no new russian
9:42 am
strikes, all because of the lost power and the destroyed infrastructure. however , the gas network promises to be stable, as stated by naftogaz, where they say that this year, for the first time, ukraine will pass the heating season for the account of gas of own production, according to the head of naftogaz, oleksiy cherneshov, in the 23rd year, the company drilled a record number of new wells , we will talk about the prospects of this winter, yuriy korolchuk, an expert of the institute of energy strategies, joined our broadcast, i congratulate you, good day, eh, what can you say about how the preparation for winter took place, how the energy industry strengthened itself and protected the infrastructure during this period, well , the preparation took place due to its financial capabilities, that is, the financial capabilities were unfortunately limited, because in february march can be stated that simply let's say. yes, interest, if you can say so, in the problems of the energy sector, it was dormant, that is, it somewhat decreased, that
9:43 am
is, during the disgraceful season, help was given, mainly equipment was given, that is, we know that transformers were received by ukrenergo, we are primarily talking about substations , which were , but you just show, you see, about the substations that were destroyed, because this is a key problem in general, because the thermal power plants of the as were not affected at all, theses their substations were also affected, that is, the production of electricity as such... it remains possible, the problem is simply to transfer this electricity to the consumer , roughly speaking, if earlier the consumer expected a million kilov of electricity, today they can only give him 5000 kv of electricity due to the reserve, moreover transmission line system, all this complicates the process in winter, respectively, when the winter will be like winter, cold, ordinary, not as warm as last year, last year in general, but for yourself it turns out that it was the warmest in 200 years, that is, such data are provided by meteorologists. and it was really warm, that’s all, people can notice it at the ordinary household level, and therefore the problem will
9:44 am
be that the system simply will not cope with giving the necessary amount of electricity to consumers, but the problem is really money, you see, on the one hand, you can say that in terms of money, they didn’t give money, well, they really didn’t give money, even the billion dollars that you mentioned that kudrytskyi said to ukrainian energy, you understand that, and shmygal actually said 200 million dollars , he called, well, he is somewhere a month. calls this figure back, it will probably grow in general, but it is all these funds that are taken into account there, including the purchase of gas there, for example, the purchase of various materials there, that is, everything, these are general funds, but the key question is that these are the funds that ukraine, let's say, allocates to its own budget, well, it is difficult to say that it is from our budget, because the hryvnia deficit, yes, that is , 50 billion dollars, yes, this is the money that is given to us as aid , that is, how certain would such a market be, and then we will use these 50 billion dollars
9:45 am
so if we were to carve out little by little what is possible there, because this money is given for various purposes, also there and for social issues, there are pensions, reconstruction, which is also ongoing, i.e. there is restoration, the army, of course, and now we have to carve out for such for the current problems of the energy industry, and here is a billion dollars , yes, the one mentioned by kudritsky, well, there is a little more, in principle, it is all actually money, well, ours, yes, i would say so, yes, they are help, it is budget money, and here are the direct ones that the company received money for recovery, there was no, well, they didn’t give anything, that is, the only option, the only one was received... a grant in the form of a grant ukrenergo received 240 million dollars, and they received it for the so-called statkoms, that is, statkoms - this is the frequency, that is, this that, in fact, this is the approximation of our frequency to the european one, that is, if we united with n. signed an agreement on the unification of energosym, and now we need to gradually equalize the frequency, equipment is needed for this, but this is not a priority issue, it does not restore nergosym in
9:46 am
overall, so i think it's really worth the wait if you're preparing for a power outage. there is no need to create illusions that, if i say last winter was warm, and there were blackouts, then this winter will be ordinary like winter, well, i don’t believe it, i don’t think that it will be a warm winter, i am not a hydrometeorological center, i do not work there, let's say, but this is very rare, even saharuk , by the way, a representative of the detek company, so they also, well, one of the largest thermal generation, they actually have 80%, even more than 80 to 90 thermal power plants today capacities, he also expressed the opinion that it is unlikely that there will be a warm winter, huh. there will be more outages, that is, if last year there were six , well, 4-6 hours, not once, not per day, this is often mistakenly perceived as 4-6 hours per day, no, mostly around 12 hours people had no electricity, from 12 to 8 a.m. during the day, the rest of the time there was electricity , then this figure will increase, there will be 10, 12, 14, 16 hours somewhere, in such a corridor,
9:47 am
everything depends on the situation, again and this is even without missile strikes, sir, that is, this number, people, ukrainians will be without light, even without missile strikes, because the shortage of electricity in any case in ukraine will be due to damage to the infrastructure, i understand correctly, yes, yes, the problem is substations, that is, this is a key issue, that is, gas, of course, is necessary, but it is for heat , it is very good that it was there last year and there were no problems, and this year we will hope, god willing, that there will not be any such critical situations, but actually a part of electricity, yes, it rests exclusively on substations , the same kudrysky, whose figure we already had in the middle of summer, that 70-80%, it was possible to restore only energy, well, power, the power itself, first of all, substations, he did not say, note that we are there until september, until october we will restore it to 90, until 90, no, that's it, this is the limit, physically further, to restore, it is necessary to make major repairs, and yes, by the way, this year no major repairs were made , this is a problem,
9:48 am
actually, out of all the substations there , about 10 need to be overhauled, but not did it because of the question? financing, because there was no money for it, look, the question is money, i'm sorry, i didn't say that, even if money was given, i'm saying that there was no money, it really wasn't, well, how did we give it, how the state itself and from within itself there, well, help, everything is clear, but money as such, even if it were, we would give it and say , repair everything you need, we simply wouldn’t have time to do it physically, because that’s all equipment, it is ordered, it is for years ahead of work, it is really destroyed, it was a lot of things, it was destroyed, you see, it works, it underwent emergency repairs , they replaced some of what was taken there from the markets of the baltic countries, here is lithuania, there, latvia, there poland gave it, there slovakia, there bulgaria, the romanians took everything they had there, transformers mainly, everything, further, everything, we stopped, we came to this point, where it is necessary to build completely new substations with new equipment, which will already be
9:49 am
different, like his often called soviet equipment, it does not change the essence, it there, the technique does not matter, consult. american, ukrainian, there, the principle of operation is the same, yes, for example, but it differs there in frequency, for example, in voltage, and yes, it already affects the very technology of the same transformer, for example, it turns out, they need new ones to install and build substations, by and large new ones, because a new substation costs about 50-70, 100 million dollars depending on the capacity, and major repairs can also cost about 50 million dollars, mr. yury, as we speak about preparation for well we hear this phrase preparation for winter, we heard it there in the spring as well, especially in the summer, but is there such an option to strengthen the power line in such a way that i don’t know, to build, install, somehow transfer, protect the transformers and so on there, or is it impossible no, why do they do it, even if the money is used for it, it is difficult to say, i am not allowed to say whether
9:50 am
everything is happening there fairly, but we see that tenders are held and it really needs to be done, because it is often a scam. from say well, there, for example, rockets, there, other explosive devices, yes, it helps , there are concrete blocks, there and traditional bags there with various loose substances there, but on the other hand, look, here are those, for example, thoughts that echoed, well, from the side of the population, it’s mostly so everyday, just speechless, let’s bury the substations deep there, well, ukrenergo waited for six months and after six months they said that it was impossible, although they knew it for sure six months ago, well, i don’t know , what they were waiting for, well, this is it it is actually impossible. as i can simply repeat their words, it is necessary to actually build a nine-type house deep into the ground and foresee sedrytskyi with the head of the board of nek ukrenergo on our air, we invite him, you. thank you for joining in, expertly explaining the situation, yuriy korolchuk, an expert at the institute of energy strategies, was a guest of svoboda rano. thank you. according to the latest
9:51 am
data from the prosecutor general's office, 504 children died in ukraine during the full-scale invasion of russia, another 1,124 children were injured of varying degrees of severity, almost the same number went missing, and about 2,000 children were forcibly deported. these numbers are not. are final, the prosecutor general's office notes, and the search for the places of hostilities in the temporarily occupied and liberated territories is currently underway. most children were affected in donetsk, kharkiv and kyiv regions. meanwhile , the head of the ministry of social policy , oksana dzholnovych, says that 7.5 million ukrainian children are considered victims of the war. they also spoke about the importance of returning children to the territory controlled by ukraine at the september meeting of the 78th session of the un general assembly. during the event, the first lady of ukraine, olena zelska, appealed to the secretary general of the un, antonio guterres , with a call to help return to ukraine children taken from the occupied territories.
9:52 am
the founder of the ukrainian children's voices charitable foundation, olena rozvadovska, spoke at the meeting. for nine years, she has been helping children who suffer because of the war. at the un headquarters, olena rozvadovska recalled the stories of several children with whom the foundation's psychologists work and noted, that what international organizations are currently doing in the field of child protection is not enough. if children in such conditions demonstrate such resilience, courage, and strength, then we adults have no right to say that we do not have the tools to protect them, the entire un system cannot deny ukrainian children protection from russian aggression, let's learn from ukrainian children to find way out of any situation, be like olya. be like anna, nadia, diana, nazar, be like children, later on the air we will talk about this difficult, but so important topic, olena rozvadovska, head of the board
9:53 am
of the children's voices fund, children's rights defender on our broadcast, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, good day. the official figures of ukrainian children who died, who were forcibly deported, are much lower than those that have not yet been confirmed. in the un, the ukrainian side spoke about the situation from what angle, what is now confirmed, or did these also sound hypothetical, not yet confirmed numbers? in general, the event was dedicated in principle to the children of ukraine who suffer from the russian invasion, and to all those hundreds of thousands of children who or were forced to flee from their own home, or were injured, or were deported, as for the numbers we talked about, 19,000, yes, there are 19 or something thousand, this is actually the number that the ukrainian side relies on when it talks about forced deportation, about
9:54 am
the removal of ukrainian children and their forced reception in the russian federation. elena, how did the international community at the un react in general to what you told? well, look, everyone knows about the war in ukraine. everyone knows about the incredible scale and violations children's rights, people's rights in ukraine, yes, there is information about it, but there is such a, often such a dead-end perception of information, they say, well, perception of the situation, they say, well, what else can be done, yes, maybe you are somewhere there you will give in a little, and maybe... somewhere, i don’t know, they are kidnapped not so much and there, maybe they are saved from, you know, they are evacuated to
9:55 am
russia, yes, russian propaganda has its own version of all this outrage , and well, it is necessary, it is necessary to speak, it is necessary to constantly remind that we are not going to retreat from these positions, we are not going to surrender our demands , but the demands are to immediately return everyone, immediately: to withdraw, to free all territories, to immediately take measures to ensure that the instruments of international protection, which are described, which are accepted, work, so that, well, our children feel childhood, so, well, in general, the situation is of course such that everyone knows about children, sympathizes, talks about supporting humanitarian projects of humanitarian programs, but at the same time, this is definitely not enough to fundamentally improve childhood for millions, and
9:56 am
cardinal improvement is... well, definitely establishing peace. elena, what could be the mechanisms now, in particular, you mentioned the russian version of events, that it is from ukraine that children are allegedly being protected in russia, including that it is discussed in the un international court, which is currently ongoing, and russia is talking about it there speaks, speaks, ukraine is supported by another 32 states, which jointly accuse russia of violating the convention on the prohibition of genocide. this trial is in court, the international court of the un, your speeches, in particular. there are your colleagues on international platforms, they can influence the improvement of the lives of ukrainian children, the return of ukrainian children to their parents, they definitely can and should influence, and i would say that it is necessary to do every day, to organize such performances, it definitely influences, because well, forget about war, when you are across the ocean from it in the context of yes, there if you take the usa, or if you are still far from it and live every day. in
9:57 am
the agenda of the war and in the agenda of the problems of ukrainian children at a distance of thousands of kilometers, well, it is very difficult to keep this nerve and understanding that ukrainian children die every day, so it's not that it doesn't affect , it definitely affects such performances , such events, and in principle , you need to speak, shout everywhere and every day, i recently returned from oslo, after new york i was in oslo, and there every saturday ukrainians gather in the central square. and they talk about russia's war in ukraine, every saturday, and this, this is unconditional, well , you know, unconditional, such is our ukrainian resistance in every corner of the world, and here, tell these stories, concrete examples, concrete cases of the fact that these are all attacks on innocent civilians, on innocent children, on schools, on this, this, and attacks on evacuation
9:58 am
corridors, and well, when you talk about it with specific examples, well, you have no arguments against it and forget it it is more difficult if you are reminded every day that, well, sorry, there is a whole system of international protection against brutal war, and it does not work and thousands of children suffer from it, well, thousands, i thank you for joining and talking on our broadcast about extremely important topic, olena rozvodovska, head of the board. children's voices, a children's rights defender was a guest of svoboda ranok. i would like to remind you that every weekday from 9:00 a.m. on tv channel uso and here on youtube, on the radio liberty channel, join our morning broadcast, where we talk about important events, also subscribe to radio liberty, we are on all social networks, subscribe , to have information, my name is kateryna nekrecha, me and our entire team, we wish you a peaceful day, see you soon.
