all this together adds strength to ukraine. i am grateful to each of our partners, to everyone who helps. at a press conference held at the coca-cola plant in kyiv region, prisker announced a series of visits to ukraine next year. she repeated the words of us president joe biden about washington's readiness to support the people of ukraine in the future. ukrainians want to have a transparent and prosperous economy integrated into europe. and for this they need to do many things. the european union has determined what is necessary for your advancement, and part of our work, and we with working closely with the us ambassador is to really help ukraine continue with reforms and policies that can allow us to attract more and more investment to ukraine. severo-donetsk or shchytsia in luhansk region, or volnovakha or ugledar in donetsk region, like other cities, in fact, these completely... destroyed by the russian army may

not be rebuilt after the end of the war. such a statement was made by the head of the pro-government party servant of the people, olena shulyak, who is also the head of the committee of the supreme councils on issues of state power, self-government, regional development and urban planning. the largest number of settlements were destroyed in the donetsk and luhansk regions. however , iconic cities, those that entered the history of the struggle for independence, such as bahmud, she said, will be rebuilt. olena shulyak said that in donbas, many cities and villages were built around enterprises that have now been destroyed or destroyed, the reconstruction of settlements will depend on the restart of those enterprises, but the reconstruction of the south of ukraine can happen faster, because it it is mainly an agrarian region , where the work of the population is related to agriculture, however, the issue of mining remains open, according to shulyak, the reconstruction process will also be affected by the time that the cities and villages will be in the war zone or occupied.

residents may be reluctant to return if this period is long, and the return will also be affected by the availability of jobs. we will talk about the reconstruction of ukraine further. olena shulyak, head of the verkhovna rada committee on state power, self-government, regional development and urban planning. the leader of the servant of the people party joined our broadcast. i congratulate you. good morning, congratulations. ms. olyna, as a result of these meetings, is there any such priority of reconstruction in ukraine. after pritzker's visit, was it possible, for example, that energy facilities will be rebuilt in the first place, and i want to say that today we have an extraordinary task, an extraordinary task, which is to protect our energy facilities throughout the territory of ukraine as much as possible, therefore that both the work of our enterprises and our safety depend on them citizens, therefore, today, of course , the government and the minister of recovery are in the focus of attention, and

mrs. peni pritzker spoke about it yesterday, precisely the protection of the energy infrastructure, it will stand as a priority issue. our international donors are also working on this issue and are doing everything possible to ensure that ukraine's energy infrastructure is protected as quickly and as reliably as possible. of course, yesterday , at the expanded presidium of the congress of local and regional authorities, ms. pritzker also discussed the usual issues related to reconstruction, for example, yesterday they talked about the reconstruction of kyiv region, by the way, kyiv region, as well as donetsk and kharkiv regions, unfortunately, they are such sad leaders in terms of the number of destructions of both the residential sector and the industrial sector, and yesterday the site of the congress of local and regional authorities, which i have already mentioned, included from the territory communities from cities,

directly the heads of such communities of kyiv region, and directly the residents, and could ask any questions related to the reconstruction in their region. if talk about reconstruction and restoration, today in ukraine there are already several stages of the program, which is related to compensation for housing, and we all know very well that ukrainians have three great desires, the first desire, it is unchanged, it is our victory as faster and the second desire is to have a job with a salary, and the third desire is, of course , to rebuild and have their own homes where ukrainians can live, so the housing issue is extremely important, and by the way, almost 30,000 families have already received compensation for program is-recovery, when we got the money to do the current quick fix, and we tried very hard to make sure that... that money got in before

the heating season, so that people could fix their roofs, put in new windows, do other things that would be appropriate for that houses are ready for living in winter. and from november 1 , the program is actively starting, which is directly related to those people who have destroyed housing, they will then, through the mechanisms of obtaining housing certificates, independently choose the inhabited point, and people will choose the type of housing, whether it will be the secondary market, whether it will be the primary market , which apartment it will be, in which building, this is all, everything will be chosen by people, and today we already see more than 200 of... housing certificates, of course, after such a full-fledged start of this program, this number will increase, and we hope that many ukrainians who currently have a problem with destroyed housing, they will receive from the state the opportunity to have their

own home, recently the verkhovna rada adopted the draft law, which is currently being signed by the speaker of the verkhovna rada and will then be signed by... we as parliamentarians have recorded that from january 1, 2024, it will be possible to receive compensation for damaged housing by those people who have already made it directly for their own cost, we know that a great many people have had to take funds, or credit funds, or borrow from their relatives in order to rebuild their homes, and we believe that in fairness, such people should also be able to receive funds, even if they rather spent their own money to renovate their homes.

the government is also currently preparing to launch other programs related to compensation, including receiving compensation for destroyed housing, if it is located in the territories that are temporarily occupied, we are now already seeing a huge number of applications from the residents of mariupol, from the residents of bakhmut, as you know. since march 2022, ukrainians have had the opportunity to submit information notices if their housing is damaged or destroyed. state today we see 535 such informational messages, and a large number of such messages, it is precisely for those territories that are currently under temporary occupation, so we will work with this category of our citizens so that they also have the opportunity to choose housing where they will live now, of course it works , but you can clarify about finances, this money will be involved, it is not money from the ukrainian

budget, but money from partners, let me tell you how we worked with compensations in this year in 2023, at the end of the 22nd year, we created a fund for the liquidation of the consequences of the armed aggression of the russian federation, and the first funds that came to this fund were money from russian banks that worked on the territory of ukraine, this is sberbank of russia, first after all, and the first 17 billion hryvnias, it was this money of this bank that was seized and sent to the liquidation fund, then other monetary assets of other russian banks that worked in ukraine were also sent to this fund. plus then money joined as profit of the national bank of ukraine and in 2023 more than 62 billion hryvnias were formed in this fund. it was from this fund that compensation was paid for damaged and destroyed housing.

it was from this fund that money was used to repair critical infrastructure, and to build social infrastructure that needed to be quickly restored, first of all the same hospitals that had to be restored in the first place. lady, thank you for this in such detail, we have one minute left, but i want to ask if pena prinsker had any questions at the meeting with you about the intended use of money, because she met with anti-corruption officials, also in the country, and, shall we say, the transparency of the use of money from these from this fund is controlled, you know, all the programs, which are related to compensations for destroyed and housing, how transparent and clear are they, when a person receives money directly, without having any recommendations or relevant accreditations, it is the person who receives this money, this is precisely the intended use, and

a person buys them, or buys building materials, or will buy or exchange a housing certificate for his apartment, so here is the question of using earmarked funds precisely within the framework of compensation mechanisms. i think it is clear to everyone, and there can be no abuse here, i thank you for that , who joined, olena shulyak, head of the servant of the people party, was a guest of svoboda ranok, we talked about compensation. about the restoration of ukrainian cities, i think we will talk in the future, thank you for joining, this is svoboda ranok, you are on the radio svoboda youtube channel, and in this stream we will continue to talk about no less interesting topics, join the discussion of these topics in the comments below this video. putin came to china, where he will meet with the country's leader xi jinping, and the minister of foreign affairs of russia, lavrov, will soon go to north korea. probably preparing putin's visit there. what does the russian government want to agree on with the chinese and

north korean leaders? the number of ukrainians who believe that the ukrainian authorities are ready for territorial concessions in exchange for achieving peace and preservation of independence. in general, ukrainians began to believe russian narratives more. this is stated in the results of a new study by the kmiz sociological group. what do these trends indicate and how do societal sentiments influence decisions? svoboda mornings, i will remind you every weekday from 9:00, here on youtube, on the radio svoboda channel, as well as on the air of telekanaluso-tv. in order not to miss important streams, subscribe to our channel and set the bell. more ukrainians began to believe that the ukrainian authorities are ready to make unacceptable compromises with russia. this indicator increased by 7% over the past year. however, the absolute majority of ukrainians, 80% of those surveyed , do not even believe in this narrative. while 12% support it. this is evidenced by the results of a sociological survey conducted by the kyiv international

institute of sociology. also, over the past year , there has been an 18% increase in those who believe in the presence of serious conflicts between the political leadership of the country and the command of the army, but more than half of the respondents are sure that the actions of the government and the army are coordinated. in addition, twice as many people believe that the west is tired of ukraine and wants it to negotiate with russia. at the same time, more than half of the respondents still believe that the west continues to help ukraine and wants the war to end on terms acceptable to ukraine. in this study , kmis analyzed how ukrainians perceive russian narratives. sociologists conclude that over the past year, the number of ukrainians who believe in these narratives has increased somewhat, although the vast majority still do not believe in them. the growth of negative sentiments among ukrainians is influenced by the fatigue of the population, especially supply weapons of ukraine, not justified expectations, but the mistakes of the authorities and the influence of russian propaganda,

as noted in the kmis. it is worth noting that the last survey was conducted by sociologists from september 29 to october 9. this year, 1,010 adult ukrainians from all regions of the country took part in the survey. all of them, at the time of the survey, lived in ukraine in territories controlled by the government until february 24 , 2022. and anton hrushetsky, executive director of kmis, joined our broadcast. greetings, mr. anton. good morning. i want to ask you, your observations from the study of the latter. and what are the main trends in changes in moods and views of ukrainians, how radical are these changes? these changes are significant enough, we cannot really ignore them, because if the share of those who believe in a conflict between the political power and the command of the army doubles, although now the majority of ukrainians trust the president and the absolute majority trust weapons. forces and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, and the fact that the proportion of those who are beginning to despair of the west is growing is alarming

trends, it is very good that the majority is still immune, and to be honest, the last months, and especially this whole year, have been quite difficult for ukraine, this is the defense of bakhmut, this is actually for many ukrainians the lack of what may seem like significant media victories , such as the liberation of kherson, although we understand that even the last months were full of heroic titanic efforts and victories, many people still expected a somewhat different autumn until the summer, that autumn would bring some other news, and this really makes people are less resistant to russian propaganda, it must be said that after the invasion, people practically stopped using russian sources, became much more resistant and did not accept information from russia, but russian propaganda can reach the minds of ukrainians through new channels, including through western media, and we see this poisoning little by little and we hope that these data... will help to speak more soberly, discuss and help people to understand

that it is not necessary to follow the russian narratives that only destroy the unity of ukraine from the middle, but you said that such changes, changes in the mood of the population are connected with high expectations, well, it turns out that high expectations are very often formed by the first faces of the state, and how in general, in your opinion, is the ukrainian government ukrainian politicians, they look... at these polls, they look at the mood of ukrainian society, they somehow adapt to them, i can guarantee you 100% that the ukrainian authorities, and the ukrainian command, they and even our western partners, they all look : survey, i can say that we have a lot of customers, these are precisely western institutions, both governmental and non-governmental, which also monitor the public mood of the population, so all these data are memorable, but with regard to fueling optimism, i understand that i saw the question of whether optimism was overheated among ukrainians, but in fact this is a collective issue not only of ukraine, you will remember how many statements there were, for example, in the spring from our western partners that all sufficient weapons were handed over to ukrainians, but

the absolute majority of ukrainians have someone from relatives, near or far, who are fighting to tell a certain situation, almost 80 % of our ukrainians have someone who died or was injured as a result of military actions, and it is clear that this creates such an emotional expectation in people that we needed to give more weapons, it is faster to help there, this is, for example, if we are talking about ambush aid, because we cannot deny these epics that continued around the supply of tanks, around the supply of airplanes, or the volumes of aid provided, or long-range missiles, which are now constantly will be discussed, this is all people see. so of course it's such a collective question, but on the other hand, i'll be honest with you that although many survey respondents say that we are ready for the honest truth, in reality this is not quite the case, people still need to keep some optimism and faith, and by the way we are now talking about optimism, it is based on people as an investment in the future, we have to survive these difficult times, because in a year, in two we will win, in 5-10 years, ukraine will be

a prosperous country, for us, for our children, for our grandchildren, and this optimism must be preserved, because questions, despair will only lead to unwillingness to resist and readiness to surrender the territory. and in your opinion , mr. anton, what are the trends that you observe, what will happen next, in your opinion, will there be less optimism, or will it still remain at this level? optimism, if the trend is to continue with such slow, hard fighting at the front, because now the main optimism is based on news from the front line, if the situation is as it is now i will continue to be optimistic, there will be three... less checks, but still the majority of the population will keep faith in a better future, by the way, we have separately cited the results that even those who believe in russian narratives, for example, about a split in the country's leadership or that the west wants, for example, to stop aid to ukraine or put pressure on ukraine, still the absolute majority among these people is against any territorial concessions, that is, in this case we do not have a transformation that, for example, the west

gives up on ukraine, we need to b to give up territories in order to maintain dependence, there is no such thing, people want to fight to the end and are ready to endure, the absolute majority are ready to endure as long as it takes, but of course, to endure and make efforts to fight there is easier when you see the light at the end of the tunnel, this concerns, by the way, the signals from partners about the accession of the east, by the way, we are observing, among other trends, a certain increase in a more critical attitude towards western partners, and it is connected with the fact that, on the one hand, ukrainians want to join the eu, but with on the other hand, touching closer to the realities of the west, people... have some slight disappointment that, for example, we feel ourselves to be europeans, part of europe, we are the shield of europe, and we are often treated as a feeling that is not as fair as we think, especially in our conditions. we still have one minute, mr. anton, i want to ask what the pro-russian narratives in the mood of ukrainians are connected with, the fact that they are increasing, you say that ukrainians are no longer there,

they consume so much information, as if from russian sources, because it is possible consume information more cunningly, for example, saying that it is pro-russian, for example, the events ran out of weapons, the events there do not have enough money to help, russia has too many resources, that is, it is not direct and sounds like a pro-russian narrative, but it is the one that discourages from the middle of the population, or the fact that, for example, volodymyr zelenskyi, valery zaluzhnyi are in conflict, and that's why you have to choose either you are for the president or you are for the army, and this actually erodes unity from the inside, and this is what plays into your hand enemy, and that's what we're trying to show that it's also, attention must be paid to this and there is a request for unity among the population, there is a request for unity and for us all to work harmoniously as a single team within the country and as part of western civilization fighting the darkness from the east. it's interesting, thank you for joining, anton hrushets, executive director of kmis, joined our broadcast and we talked about changes in the mood of ukrainians. putin has already arrived in

china, the plane of the russian president landed in pokin today. the official purpose of the visit is to participate in the one belt, one road forum. there putin will be the main guest, russian state media reported, citing yuri ushakov, an aide to the russian president. at the opening, putin will speak immediately after the host of the event, chinese leader shizenpin, and tomorrow they will both hold talks in two stages , first in a wide circle, and then in a narrow one, in the format of a working breakfast and possibly even a meeting. they will discuss not only bilateral relations, but also the international situation. one train. one initiative founded 10 years ago by the chinese authorities through which beijing invests in the construction of transport, transport infrastructure in various countries and thus builds trade routes between asia. and africa. according to reuters, documents under this project have been signed by 150 countries and 30 international organizations over the 10 years of its existence. it is called

the largest infrastructure project of our time. however, western countries do not take part in it, and the only g7 country that was a participant in the project - italy, withdrew from it in march of this year. for putin, this visit to china is the first trip abroad of the former soviet union this year. the last time he went to china. in february 2022 for the winter olympics, a few weeks before a full-scale invasion of ukraine. then beijing and moscow announced an unlimited partnership. and the last time putin and xi saw each other was in march of this year in moscow. in addition to the meeting with the chinese president in beijing , putin will also hold meetings with the presidents of vietnam, laos, mongolia and the prime minister of thailand. this is what the russian state media write. i will note that the minister of foreign affairs of russia serhii. brov has arrived in china the day before, but from beijing he will go to north korea, the russian foreign ministry reports. the details of the visit are not specified there, but it is known that in september, during

the visit of the north korean leader kimchenin to russia, he invited putin to visit his country. russian state media, citing radio north korea, said at the time that the russian president had accepted the invitation, and lavrov's visit could be a preparation for him. and these visits, let me remind you, take place against the background of statements by analysts and representatives of the usa about providing russia with weapons for the war against ukraine to north korea. international expert ruslan osupenko joins our broadcast. i congratulate you, mr. ruslan. congratulations, ms. kateryna. i would like to ask right away, what does the russian government want to negotiate with the chinese and north korean leaders, about weapons or something else on the agenda? no, it is. coordination of actions in general in this camp of personality regimes, they are coordinating actions on the eve of xi jinping's big meeting with biden, so we saw that

they formed such an instrument, a strong a strong position for china to negotiate, i mean, war, started the process of war in fact in the middle east, in order for china to act as a peacemaker, could it tell the united states that it can stop its... proxy iran and moscow, this is actually a tool for negotiations, that is why actions are being coordinated now, well, there is no doubt that the preparations for the visit are there, but it will take a minimum of some, the minimum time of this visit, but there is nothing to prepare there, as they say, but to coordinate actions geopolitically, to see how the situation has changed and to see what to do about it and how to move, so this is important, and in general, well, we must remember... that while preparing for the broadcast, we looked at the fact that putin was the last, in general, in north korea for 23 years

why should he go to see kimchen-in now, they have only seen each other conditionally recently, this is to strengthen legitimization on the eve of the elections, i think he solved the internal issue when prigozhin went on his march of justice there and actually showed the weakness of putin and the weakness of the entire vertical , which he built, that's why that power is personalistic. well, he cast a shadow over the fact that the leader there is just as strong, capable of doing something, so he destroyed prigozhin, but he remained isolated from the outside, and he needs to demonstrate that he remains legitimate from the outside as well, that he has many other countries , with whom he can maintain relations, talk, convey his, his point of view, let's say this, about the construction he made, well, he actually threw it into the security system and blew it up, but he drives around and says that he does not want the war started that they were ending the war, that

the united states is to blame, which does not deal with the near east, well, it carries such propaganda, but it is also legitimizing and proving its point of view outside the borders of russia, a lot of visits are planned this week, but we know that the president of the united states, joe biden, will visit israel on wednesday, october 18, then to jordan, where he has scheduled meetings with the king of jordan, the president of egypt and the head of the palestinian authority. well, we know officially that biden intends to discuss security issues with them humanitarian aid to the civilian population, the population of gaza, is that officially, but unofficially, what will be talked about in these meetings, biden will try to stop a big war, a big escalation? precisely so that the arab countries do not get involved in a broad front, and therefore, even in the countries he visits, jordan is more loyal. to the united states , er, israel, of course, it's the first ally in the middle east, the united states, it has to support it, but it wants

to talk, with everybody, let's say, neighbors, well, before that, the secretary did it, he was in the middle east and worked ahead of you, let’s say so that there would be no second stage of the war, the involvement of the arab countries, and the president, biden, even his presence, that that he is coming to support israel, he says, firstly, that the united states has serious intentions to support israel, and secondly, that the arab countries do not get involved in this war, and putin and all, putin. will they talk with the leader of north korea about the situation in the middle east? i think so because, well, to a lesser extent, i am i think that putin will discuss this situation in china, in china, in korea, i think that there will be no such discussion, because korea itself is a proxy for china, but in china there will be a full discussion of how the geopolitical structure has changed, so that they actually undermined the status quo, ignited it.

course, and now they will think how to position themselves as mediators, as peacemakers, as those who can influence, settle the conflict, or, on the contrary, add fuel to the fire, in order to get the united states involved and then hit some weak cities of the united states, that is, this construct will be discussed, i think there is one more visit that will not take place, israel responded with a refusal to the request of the president's office, regarding the request to give consent to the official visit of volodymyr zelensky to the country after the attack from... the hamas group , in your opinion, why the refusal, why not on time? well, it's actually a bad sign that israel didn't realize the mistake it made by relying on security arrangements with moscow, but armenia understood, and israel still doesn't realized that you can't negotiate with moscow and it doesn't abide by treaties, it just acts in its own interests, and at any moment, even partners who have always helped you there, and netanyahu has always helped

putin there, it starts... from that , which was treated by the israelis, dr. putin there, ending with the fact that he did not help, we must honestly say, he helped ukraine a little, and now, when zelskyi wanted to demonstrate the support of the entire ukrainian people, this is not zelenskyi’s trip, it is the ukrainian people wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with the israeli people, to demonstrate his solidarity, well, on the one hand, he refused this visit, on the other hand, he talked with putin. on the phone, it doesn't look like that, you know, well, israel didn't realize the mistake, it didn't work on the mistakes, let's say, diplomatically , or maybe it deliberately acts like that in order not to aggravate its relations with russia, so where to aggravate them, if russia is already further, if russia provoked this war, well, it is proven that it is a billion in the 23rd year in hamas

i drove in, then the instructors, those who were preparing this operation there together with the iranian instructors, the weapons were there behind the weapons, they were made using russian ak technologies, well , where else, what should happen, a nuclear bomb will fall on israel from russia, i don’t understand anymore then, if you do not realize that they are acting against you, technology is transferred to kill you, they do not call when 15 thousand people were killed there, killed and even the leader of another country, whom you helped all the time, did not express any sympathy, even when he fell into international isolation, that's it obvious things, it should have already been seen by the blimp and it was necessary to review the entire strategy of relations in general, but no, you see, yes, but interesting meetings, it is interesting to see what the results will be, public, at least, thank you for joining, ruslan osypenko, expert international, was a guest of our broadcast. svoboda mornings with you every day from 9:00 , subscribe to the radio svoboda channel to know more and not miss important broadcasts, my name is kateryna nekrecha, and i and our whole team wish you a peaceful
