espresso. bryukhovychy resort village, which belongs to the community of lviv. it is a wonderful recreational area with forests and lakes. you can get from here to the center of lviv in 20 minutes by car. such an end to sleep in the lviv style. hectares of land here are worth millions of dollars. but to one of the private ones developers got absolutely free. it was a shock as the plot is extremely valuable. its market value reaches about 3 million dollars, and when such a plot of land was withdrawn from use in the community and transferred to a public organization for free permanent use, it was hoped that it would be a truly social, large-scale project, but in fact it was an ordinary commerce, where apartments of various plans would be built, commercial premises for sale. yuliya latsik has lived in bryukhovychy since birth, says that things happened here... everything during the times of different authorities,

but this is the first time a woman sees such an arrogant land grabber. depressing, just a depressing impression, a disgusting impression. in the fall of 2022, as part of the decentralization reform, bryukhovychy will be included in the lviv community. and a month before that, already knowing about the impending termination of its existence, the bryukhovytsia selyshna rada starts giving away precious land for free. thus, a public organization receives more than 3.5 in the forest for a rehabilitation center for veterans. the plot was transferred from communal ownership of the community to the permanent use of the public enterprise organizations, the association of veterans, defenders of the fatherland, the lviv sanatorium, and the transferred plot was under their statutory activities, namely related to the rehabilitation, recovery, of war invalids.

and... in october 2022, to the noise of a full-scale war, representatives of a private construction company appeared on the site, surrounded it with a fence and said that they had permits from the public organization of veterans and already in august of this year active construction work began, says the lawyer and resident bryukhovychiv eryna ostapyk. they signed an agreement on cooperation with the enterprise of the association of the disabled lviv health resort. according to the specified cooperation agreement, after the real estate objects are built, ownership of newly constructed objects of property passes to sensar development. subsequently, the residents of bryukhovychy opened the register of urban planning activities and saw that there will be no large rehabilitation center on shirokiy street, only six acres are allocated for this, that is , in fact, a private house on 500 km, and the remaining 346 acres of land will go to seven

four-story residential buildings, shopping... the center and commercial premises that the developer will put up for sale, which is more than 40,000 square meters, therefore, in fact, with good intentions, a huge land plot, valuable both in terms of recreation and in terms of location , was given free of charge to the commercial structure even more , the brukhovytsia village council at that time gave land to the veterans' organization, very quickly... with all possible violations. first, there was an unfinished school on this site, and a detailed zoning plan was not adopted territories, there were no permits for felling trees in the recreation area. nevertheless, just in front of our eyes, construction workers are actively destroying the school every day with the help of an excavator. forensic construction and technical examination, evaluation and construction examination, they are incomplete, but at the same time, the developer continues to dismantle the school, that is , in the near future there will be no place to conduct this

examination in order to find out whether the bryakhovy town council really had the authority to write off this school, did she have such grounds after all... there was none. ulyana pak is a deputy from lviv city council from the european solidarity faction. residents of bryukhovych turned to her as the head of the legality commission, since the lviv city council did not respond to their lawsuits. ulyana pak convened a deputy commission, based on the results of which lawsuits were filed. the position of the lviv city council and relevant structural divisions, including the mayor and deputies, should have been much tougher. we have been for several weeks. we are waiting for it, but in fact we did not hear a personal position, i did not hear, for example, mr. zubach and i did not hear the mayor's comments . the meeting of the legality commission in the lviv city council took place more than two weeks ago, but none of the officials of the legal and

urban planning departments implemented the recommendations. this silent position of the lviv city council leads residents to think that the private developer has already quietly agreed with the city hall on his commercial construction. such not a little inaction, such specific inaction, and the residents, a number of residents already suspect that the lviv city council is draining little by little it's just construction, agreed with the developer. according to the ucontrol portal, yaberko roman bogdanovych is the authorized person of the association of disabled defenders of the fatherland in the lviv health center, and the man transfers the responsibility for the land deriban in bryukhovychy to others. why are you in front of... in general, this huge plot of land to a private developer, if it was about a large rehabilitation center, that is, i will tell you more, call mark, he will explain everything to you, he is aware of all matters. the mark that

the director of the veterans organization is talking about is this founder and head of a private construction company from zaporizhia, mark marchenko. he and his brother are known throughout the country because of the scandal involving the embezzlement of uah 87 million of budget funds during the construction of infrastructure facilities in zaporizhzhia and melitopol in 2017. at that time, vladyslav marchenko was the deputy chairman of the zaporizhia regional council. we called mark marchenko. do you think it is normal that now in a state of full scale war, the rehabilitation center you are covering will actually occupy a measly area of ​​6. all the remaining 3 hectares of land will go under high-rise buildings, shopping centers and commercial real estate? look, i consider it normal today to do what we can do for our soldiers and help them as much as anyone can, we currently have an agreement

with the lviv health center that we, as a developer, come in and take over the functions of the customer, the customer, the construction customer on himself, and for this he transfers... to them the rehabilitation center, which will be personally managed by serhii volynskyi and his staley foundation. as for the area or quantity, that's a different question. very sad that potential the developer is covered by well-known people, who in fact, many, gave their health and in order to protect ukraine, lviv's head of urban development lyubomyr zubach says that he fully supports the locals, recalls how he personally stopped illegal construction works in bryukhovychy a year ago, initiated the initiation of a criminal case and the imposition of an arrest on the plot on shirokiy street. i am already used to the fact that residents say that the city

council is not doing enough, but i would like to say that when active construction work began there a year ago, i was personally there on the land plot, together with the residents , he physically stopped these works there, took away the construction fence and did other things, which were actually quite difficult from the point of view of the correctness of legal procedures there. but the private developer through the courts to the place of arrest, because the permit for construction work was issued to him by the state inspection of architecture and urban planning of ukraine, so the residents of bryukhovychy and the city council will still have to fight for the plot in the courts. because it was a turn. crime, it was an outright scam, a criminal case was opened, now on it is my deep conviction that the ball, as they say, is in the court of lawyers and law enforcement officers, and everything depends on their effectiveness. according to the lawsuits of the residents of bryukhovych, the shevchenkiv

court of lviv in september of this year imposed an arrest on the plot and the developer, similar to this decision not to sneeze, because even when our film crew was on the plot, he was actively working there. with which the builders demolished the school. well, now you can listen to the palindrome with the song brukhovychy brukhovychy and let's move on. is going to come to ukraine the head of the government of romania and not himself will take with him several more colleagues already in october, that is, october already begins here on sunday , they are going to kyiv in order to close as many directions of cooperation as possible that we have in common with romania, that our country has in common with romania, we hope for some, also good results, from this meeting and this joint work , please, the air defense forces reported seven airstrikes, including the destruction of the expensive s-300

anti-aircraft missile system, you know that i know, i know, i think most ukrainians know what it is s-300, i think they know not only about the s300 , well, at this point it's time to add to our conversation our colleague from kyiv, yehor checherinda, who is already in touch with us, congratulations, we see good things in kyiv and colleagues, congratulations you, if you have already given the word, then i accepted it in shevchenko park, we are and will talk today about what interests us all, what the ukrainian economy will be like, how much the ukrainian hryvnia will be worth and what we will see in the exchange offices this fall and next year, during the year, we will talk with ours financial and economic expert serhiy fursa is visiting us, i congratulate you, mr. serhiy, how are you, congratulations, everything is fine, well, let 's start with the last interview... well, rostyslav shurma, the deputy head of the office of the president of ukraine, he gave

an interview with our colleagues from interfax ukraine, in which he expressed his concern that the hryvnia is strengthening too much and becoming too stable in our country, he says that it is possible to revalue it a little, that is, to lower its price in relation to the dollar, well, a quote related to the exchange rate, probably, given the levels of inflation that are in us and other states, such a very easy, controlled devaluation. at insignificant percentages, it will probably be useful for the economy - said russlav shurman, well, he is responsible for economic processes, macroeconomics in our office of the president, what do you think about the office's idea to lower the price of the ukrainian hryvnia a little, it is not very appropriate, because such comments themselves , because the national bank conducts an independent policy, and such comments, especially during the ongoing imf mission, may be perceived as pressure on the independence of the regulator, and this may create many problems for ukraine. including with the receipt of subsequent tranches.

well, in general, for the ukrainian economy, for ukrainian goods, well, the logic is obvious that if our ukrainian manufacturers will put their goods on the market at a lower price in dollars, then ukrainian citizens will buy ukrainian products, and not imports, which now a huge wave enters the ukrainian market, look, this is a standard situation, when exporters are doing well, and people are not doing well, when the currency falls, people, consumers... suffer when the currency falls, because it accelerates inflation, it leads to an increase in prices, exporters win , this is a standard story, there is no magic philosopher's stone here that says: everyone will be fine with such an exchange rate, there is no such thing, whenever in there would be no war, the exchange rate would be free and the market would shape it itself, and such conversations would be altogether inappropriate, now these conversations are possible, and again, these conversations should not be conducted by anyone from the president's office, because it is pressure on regulator. but you and i could talk about it

to talk, so in the kitchen, there really is a question here, the hryvnia has been stabilized for a very long period of time, for more than a year, during this time there is inflation, our inflation exceeds the american one, theoretically, at the level of these differences, we can say that the exchange rate can be rearranged, and the national bank actually thinks about all this, the question is that when it comes from the outside, it harms, it disturbs the market, and it just reduces the probability of any steps on the national bank, because marchenko said last week the exchange rate 41.5 and he destroyed the situation when the situation was stable on the foreign exchange market, come on, that is, the hryvnia, the dollar increased by another hryvnia , let's talk about marchenko a little later , i will quote him, i will read what he said. about the refinancing rate, about the national bank, you mentioned, we have information and about inflation, our inflation is now 8.6%, says shurma, and the discount rate was 22, well, now it is 20, it seems that it has already become, this meant that the real our discount rate is 13%, can you name me at least one

country in the world where there is a positive real real discount rate. a question mark, in every country, in almost all countries, inflation is higher than the accounting rate, said the deputy head of the office in an interview with interfax ukraine. your comment. well, it smells a bit of erdoğanism, when erdoğan broke the independence of the central bank, shouted about low interest rates, as a result, now, first of all, he is forced to return to normal economic policy, calling for normal economists who raise rates harshly, for what, because inflation in erdogan 50-80%, with such conversations, look, now really, right now in a moment, it happened. that inflation has decreased sharply, and the discount rate does not have time to decrease at such a speed , but why did inflation decrease, including because the discount rate was high, in our country at the beginning of the year inflation was 26%, and the discount rate was 25. then the national bank started a cycle reduction of the discount rate, seeing that it was indeed possible to bring inflation under control, inflation

is decreasing and the discount rate is gradually decreasing. the national bank cannot take and at one point the rate was 26, to make 12, it is super wrong, it is super incorrect, and it destroys market and destroys trust in the national bank. therefore, it is absolutely logical that the national bank gradually, communicating with everyone, gradually-gradually lowers the discount rate, plus the failure of inflation, which is now 8%, it already is, it does not mean that we have stabilized this inflation at 8%, that is including the result, for example, i am very impressed with vegetables, yes, we now have vegetables that are putting pressure on inflation, we have tomatoes, cucumbers, and so on, all of them fell very... sharply in price, and for some reason 1 +1 stopped counting the borscht set, and as a result , because ops no no it works, so inflation will be somewhere around 10% in the coming year according to estimates and forecasts, and the national bank will gradually bring its rate closer to this level, i think next year we will reach somewhere around 15%. again, you have to understand that we keep

the discount rate quite high, because we need to keep the currency market, because the war is going on, and during the war, during the outflow of capital... a very ugly situation. well , let's continue about the ugly situation, you mentioned serhii marchenko, who on september 13, 11 held a meeting with the european business association, and what did he say there? he expressed his concern and dissatisfaction with the fact that the main results of large-scale foreign aid to ukraine are the increase of international reserves, the payment of debts and the growth of imports, considering such results to be insufficient. marchenko added that he is also worried about the strengthening of the hryvnia. there are no fundamental factors for which, well , marchenko said that it is necessary to create conditions for the use of international aid funds for the growth of the economy and the creation of added value within the country, well, the logic is obvious in these in words, look, there is the standard logic of the ministry of finance, which always needs devaluation, and the standard logic of the national bank, which fights inflation, there is an absolutely natural contradiction here, which is simply laid out, and this is

historically in any country in the world, this is how it exists, the national bank fights inflation and that is why it is important for him that the exchange rate is stable and inflation is low, the ministry of finance's main priority is to implement the budget, the budget is much better implemented with a weaker hryvnia and higher inflation, so this is actually a natural conflict, and the only unnatural thing here is that this comment, well, it shouldn't have come out, yes, because he, it's shurma and marchenko, these two comments shouldn't have come out, right? well, because , again, the national bank has recently been constantly communicating that it is approaching the liberalization of the foreign exchange market. including that it led to what marchenko wants, the exchange rate would be slightly weakened, but this cannot be done when the pressure on the hryvnia is exerted, when there is constant pressure on the market, after this comment by mr. marchenko, the sale of money by the national bank from reserves has radically increased, almost a billion every week,

they sold a billion dollars for two weeks, and immediately in the exchange offices the dollar rate increased by 1 hryvnia, that is... the dollar increased by another 37, it became 38, and 38.5, this was actually a consequence of the comments of the head of the ministry of finance, so it is just prevented the national bank, if it planned to switch to a more or less different exchange rate of the hryvnia, yes, it is necessary to understand how to do it, and now, because we cannot have a free exchange rate during the war, because there is no free exchange rate, there will be constant pressure and the hryvnia will fly, that is, it is needed somewhere, something make it fixed, or floating in some... corridor, but this is possible only when you have no speculative pressure. let's talk about how it is fixed, you see, and the bee flew in, how it is fixed for the next budget year, in the draft budget for the next year, the exchange rate of the dollar is fixed in the draft, if i am not mistaken, at the level of 41.1 hryvnia, 40 kopecks for one to 41.4 per dollar, this is

normal, you consider the exchange rate for the development of the ukrainian economy, well, in general, to possibly limit this wave of imports. which we mentioned, well, again, it doesn't matter what's in the budget , the last five, what is it written for then , sorry, for calculations, it's not written there, by the way, it's just an estimated indicator, because there are certain revenues to the ministry of finance that go in dollars, and it is necessary to somehow convert them into hryvnias, because the entire budget is in hryvnias, so you need to form this kind of rate, at which rate you calculate it all, that's all, this does not mean that that course is planned, it doesn't mean anything at all, it's just an estimated course taken, everyone the last five... years, when we looked, the rate in the budget was one, in reality it was different, constantly, so what is written in the budget does not mean at all that such a rate will be, it does not mean at all, it is just an estimated indicator . and what will it be then, and tell me what this indicator was for the current 23rd year, for the current one it was also 41 with something, it seems to be 42, somewhere there the average course was a vice, because the expectation, when the budget was drawn up at

the beginning, still at the end of the previous year, were much worse, then thanks to rhythmicity western aid managed to completely stabilize the macroeconomic situation, the exchange rate is under control, reserves are growing and there was no pressure on the hryvnia, in fact it was stuck and not moving anywhere, what will the exchange rate be next year, well, again, it will not differ much from the current one, there are two options, either the national bank will simply keep the current exchange rate, or they will go to a meeting with all those exporters, the president's office, the ministry of finance, uh, and rearrange it a little, yes, how much they will rearrange it, if you look at the forecasts of the national bank for this year, then they are there until the end of the year, yes conditionally at the end of the year, they also have a rate of 38, can the rate be there during the next year 40, well maybe, yes, this is actually a change in percentages by 10. this is not a critical change . well, let's talk about general macro indicators, two more words: the european bank for reconstruction and development has kept its previous forecast for the growth

of the ukrainian economy in 2023-24. in 2023, gdp growth in ukraine is expected to be 1%. which reflects a sharp decline in gdp in the first quarter, compared to the same quarter period last year. according to this, there will probably be a growth of 3% in the next 24. year, as far as these indicators are adequate for the situation , that is, adequate for the bottom to which the ukrainian economy has already fallen after the full-scale invasion and now +1 +3, is this what we expect, look, these are not indicators, this is the forecast of the european bank for reconstruction and development and that's all, and this forecast is not like a consensus forecast, because all the others, the imf, our dragon capital forecast, the forecast of the national bank, in most banks of ukraine, just say about growth this year somewhere on par... and plus or minus the same growth next year as for a country at war, these are super figures. well, you mentioned, among other things, turkey, despite inflation there, but there gdp growth, if

i am not mistaken, is definitely not +1% per year, but who is happy with that, when you have 80% inflation, if you mathematically grow gdp, this does not make it easier for anyone, your standard of living is constantly falling, because inflation is 80%, you can imagine in ukraine now during the war inflation, and we fight often, like prices are rising, in inflation, in turkey 80, it destroys any macro-financial stability and creates the conditions for a very, very deep crisis, it does not allow any household to develop normally and creates risks for business, it is not a normal situation when prices rise like this, well, let's conclude, it seems that we still have a minute, ukraine can withdraw its lawsuit to the sod, it concerns restrictions on ukrainian wheat exports, if... poland, hungary and slovakia guarantee not to apply restrictive measures to ukrainian goods in the future, in the future, said taras kachka, deputy minister of economy, well, let me remind you that

the day before, the ministers of agriculture of poland and ukraine met in person and apparently agreed on a scheme for transporting ukrainian grain through poland, but you see, there are nuances that ukraine is still trying to write down , i understand from the documentary what you think about whether the ukraine grain scandal is over, on the one hand, poland, slovakia, hungary on the other. well, it continues until the final point is set, plus there are still two weeks until the elections in poland, there will be a lot of buzz, so now we see the good policeman, this is sosolski, the bad policeman is a duck, this is absolutely normal, we are trying to play such a tough game so that no one has any illusions, that ukraine will surrender its interests. well, let me remind you, mykola solskyi is the minister of agricultural policy of ukraine. thank you, serhii fursa , our economic expert was with us, we talked about the dollar exchange rate, gdp, and also about ukrainian grain. colleagues, now i pass the word, please, thank you, yehor, yehor chucheryn, a colleague from kyiv, we will also say goodbye in a moment, uah 129,728, with

such an account, actually i wish you a good, peaceful and safe day, i would like to continue to donate and remain, of course, the espresso tv channel, a partner of the glaufix healthy look project, glaufix, protecting and maintaining the sharpness of your vision, the feeling of visual impairment, discomfort in the eyes, sensitivity to bright light, these are possible precursors, cataracts and glaucoma, and the solution is glaufix to protect and maintain visual acuity. glaofix (c11) active ingredients to protect your eyes glaufix - sharp vision forever.

according to voos, about 285 million people around the world suffer from visual impairment, of which 39 million are affected by blindness. every year, the number of blind people increases by 1.2 million. therefore , it turns out that every 5 seconds one person on earth loses his sight. in ukraine. there are no exact official statistics on the number of people with visual impairments. according to various estimates, there are more than 3,000 ukrainians. most often, visual impairment is observed at school age, in the form of nearsightedness or farsightedness, or already after 40 years, it glaucoma and cataracts. also common is diabetic retinopathy, which is damage to the retina of the eye caused by diabetes. the biggest

problem in all these cases is untimely referral to a doctor. they affect the risk of developing diseases of the visual system. heredity: a genetic predisposition to eye diseases such as glaucoma or cataracts is a factor that cannot be ruled out. genes inherited by us from our parents and grandparents can be silent for several decades and suddenly appear. already in adulthood. harmful habits few people know that nicotine and cyanides, which are part of tobacco products , worsen the blood supply to the eyes, which leads to the development of conjunctiva, blockage of blood vessels and even cataracts. if you have a hangover or abuse alcohol, then vision problems are guaranteed for you. malnutrition. without the necessary vitamin. and

minerals in the diet, vision can deteriorate and provoke various pathologies. for example , it is generally known that cataracts develop more often in people with a lack of zinc in the body. in times when housewives used evaluation dishes, there were much fewer cases of this disease. to prevent vision loss and reduce the risk of developing diseases of the visual apparatus , it is necessary to observe the following recommendations: get rid of bad habits and discipline the right ones. it is necessary to carry out regular diagnostics, thanks to which problems can be detected at the initial stage. but the most important thing, what doctors and ophthalmologists insist on, is that the eyes must be constantly nourished with a complex of useful substances, such as can reduce the risk of development severe diseases of the visual apparatus and

maintain visual acuity. vision loss occurs imperceptibly, gradually and very often painlessly. that is why you should take care of your health and eyesight in advance. bless you. sensation of impaired vision, discomfort in the eyes, sensitivity to brightness. light, these are possible precursors, cataracts and glaucoma, and the solution is glaufix to protect and maintain visual acuity, glaufix is ​​11 effective components to protect your eyes. glaufix - sharp vision forever.
