governments believe that under favorable circumstances we will invest in two years. experts are much more restrained in their forecasts, they consider joining the eu in seven years more realistic. it will be very good if we have time to join by 2030 . there is no separate expedited procedure. perhaps they will treat us a little more leniently, taking into account the fact that we are carrying out all the necessary reforms under martial law, but at the same time , the european union is becoming more and more countries, the eu is becoming unwieldy, it is increasingly difficult for it to make the necessary consensus decisions in a timely manner. that is, when all 27 states agree. decisions are becoming increasingly difficult as individual countries block decisions and overuse their veto power, and it's simple political math. in the european union, with more than 306 veto powers, the likelihood of one country blocking everything would be even higher. the decision of the eu is visible. now budapest has announced that while there is a war in ukraine, it is in europe. not required. a war with ukraine

would now also enter the european union, which we obviously do not want and cannot want. the extension is a must to serve as a continuation of peace, not to bring war to the european union. the hungarian authorities have also promised to block negotiations on ukraine's accession to the eu until kyiv fulfills their ultimatum - to allow transcarpathian hungarians to be educated in the hungarian language. the government declared that they are ready for a compromise, but they hope that the europeans will not allow it. to disrupt the process of ukraine's integration. these are much broader and more important issues than just opening negotiations on ukraine's membership. and hungary is purposefully trying to tie up all this existence history, which decisions that will have multi-year, ten-year consequences for the whole of europe in budapest. we must not allow this.

the leadership of the european union is maximally pro-ukrainian, they have decided that europe can no longer ignore geopolitical reality , the eu must learn to defend itself against countries such as russia, and therefore ukraine is needed under a common roof, as a shield on the border and as part of the european community, but currently the european union is entering a period turbulence, therefore brussels is in a hurry to complete all negotiation procedures with ukraine, so that the process becomes practically irreversible it is very important for them to make time for... the most important decision before the change of the political cycle in european institutions. trends are such that populist movements are becoming very popular in europe, so it is very important that the most important decisions on our accession are made before these elections. at a tragic cost, but still an outsider, who previously wanted to be left forever somewhere on the threshold of the so-called associated half-membership, ukraine unexpectedly turned out to be a catalyst for the global transformation of the eu itself, which...

nowadays, it must become a geopolitical block and ensure the survival and safety of the entire continent. maria vasylieva, inna bodner, ilyash shenkarenko, tsn, 1.1. only news marathon. for the fifth day, the strike of polish transporters, who are blocking the border for ukrainian freight carriers, continues. they demand the return of permits for ukrainian drivers, and the removal of polish cars from the electronic queue, as well as their release from the territory of ukraine without a queue. empty polish trucks, although the protest covered only three checkpoints, the problems with exit and entry were felt by all, because the drivers trucks try to bypass the blocked crossing points and create queues at others, the strikers let only dangerous, humanitarian and military cargo through without a queue, but the rest are waiting for several days, only in volyn, at the berry crossing point, in line for the driving 1200 trucks, queue with poland. because the side stretched for

almost fifty kilometers, from time to time ukrainian drivers go to negotiations with the picketers, but these conversations did not bring any results. the day before, also representatives of the polish ministry infrastructure met with the strikers, talked with them for three hours, but did not reach any consensus. the seller, who led convoys of russian troops to kyiv, was convicted in sumy oblast in the first days. full-scale invasion, he accompanied the occupiers in his own car, showed them detours that lead to the capital, thus encouraging the traitor, 120 units of equipment, tanks, battleships, artillery passed, and after the liberation of the region from occupation, the man continued cooperation with the enemy , provided data on the location of units of the armed forces and types the sbu armed forces detained the suspect for a year in august, and today the court found him guilty of treason and sentenced him to 15

years in prison. and another month in sizo, the pechersk district court of the capital extended the preventive measure of the people's deput from the prohibited. of the opposition platform for life, nestor shufrych, the defense asked to release him on personal bond and about the readiness to take shufrych as bail, two of his party colleagues, from the former opzzh, and now from the platform for life and peace, oleksandr koltunovych and hryhoriy mamka, said today , however, the court rejected the request and extended detention for another month, nestor shufrych was detained in september on suspicion of treason, now his lawyers are already preparing to appeal and in general, since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, eight people's deputies have been suspected of treason, and six of them are members of the banned pro-russian opposition platform for life, but from the current ninth convocation there are people's deputies who

have been served with suspicions for other crimes, who and what they are accused of and at what stages these cases were calculated and analyzed by tsn correspondent victoria kovtsun. justification of the russian attack, collaborationism, and finally, treason, and also fraud and bribery, and estates, cars and gifts that they forgot to declare, all these accusations against the current people's deputies, at the beginning of the full-scale war, almost three dozen parliamentarians of the ninth convocation received suspicions , and this is every 13th lawmaker in the upper house. after february 24 , eight people's deputies were suspected in the state council, six of them members of the currently banned pro-russian opzh in particular, vadym rabinovych and renat kuzmin, as well as non-party member andriy derkach, have already been deprived of their citizenship. in addition to them, the odious

ilya kiva, who is currently hiding in moscow, and his fellow party member oleg voloshin are suspected in the state council. renata kuzmin, the court arrested him in absentia. we have a criminal charge. the act sent to the court, in which former deputy oleh volushin appears, the case in which ilya kiva also appears, one of the criminal proceedings and one of the indictments, is also currently in court. during full-scale war, suspicion in the state council was received by their collaborator from the servant of the people , oleksiy kovalev, who sided with the enemy and received a position in the occupation administration of kherson. in august of that year, he died from a shot in the neck. oleksandr ponomav is another suspect in collaborationism. he is currently in custody. he is accused of actively cooperating with the russians in occupied berdyansk and supplying them with equipment. nestor shufrech, one of the most prominent members of the former opzh, is also accused of treason. now

he is in sizo. the public has no fewer questions his colleague yuriy boyko, formerly on the opzzzh, and now on the platform for life and peace, is also calling, who to everything else already after the start of the full-scale. they discussed strikes on ukraine, the ukrainian military, and so on, but there is no official suspicion against him, the question is the prematurity and the reaction of law enforcement agencies, what is the delay, he still has the title of hero of ukraine, the boyk towers have been returned to the control of ukraine, but the main figure in these mr. boyka, still in the parliament and still with the title of hero of ukraine, well, it's something absurdity. those who are suspected of corruption, fraud or abuse of official position in order to go to rest during the great war - seven. in particular, the servants of ludmila marchenko, serhiy kuzminykh and anatoliy hunka were caught in bribes of various scales.

criminal proceedings for fraud have been initiated against serhiy alexiyev, a member of the european solidarity corps. currently , he is out on bail of 2 million. like opzh member dmytro isaenko, he paid more than 6 million bail. another large group of suspicions that people's deputies received from the beginning full-scale invasion, unreliable declaration, these are 12 deputies who forgot to declare apartments and cars. so, for lying in the declaration, law enforcement officer serhiy shakhov, a member of the trust group, who did not indicate his wife's property of 60 million euros , is being sought . a member of european solidarity, artur, is accused of hiding a villa in spain worth almost 200 million euros. grasymov, if you look at the potential number, well , i think that at least 100 can be added, now, when the declarations are opened, they will begin to be checked, i think that there will be a large the number of people involved, there will indeed be people to whom the questions will be of a more technical nature, well, somehow

they did not prepare it correctly, it happens, but in another way there will be problems, i think it will lead to the opening of certain cases there, and these are only those suspicions, which were announced during a full-scale war, because if you count all the active ones... there will be almost 50 cases that are currently being investigated by law enforcement agencies . also the case of petro poroshenko. currently, only the sbi is investigating 47 criminal proceedings, both against current and former deputies. 17 deputies received suspicions, and we are talking about the fact that six deputies have been declared wanted, and currently seven criminal proceedings, seven indictments have been sent to court. another 23 people's deputies, at the beginning of the full-scale war, received suspicion from the national anti-corruption bureau, this is not counting the cases initiated by the sbu, the prosecutor general's office and other law enforcement agencies, however,

of the verkhovna rada, but as analysts of the movement honestly note, not everyone is in a hurry to return to their jobs. people's deputy volynets, people's deputy kuzminykh, margarita shol, that is, they go, look, the only thing, well, it's individual, of course, there, for example, is ludmila marchenko, a people's deputy from the servant of the people, as far as i know, she does not appear, again, according to the voting results, she is not physically in the parliament, everything takes time, there are cases in which it is currently impossible to collect the evidence base. the conditions of the war do not allow to go to berdyansk, for example, for now, so it is possible be stretched in time, and some criminal proceedings can be investigated quite quickly, then, when the indictment is already in court, the ball, i would say, is in the court of the process itself. however, the most difficult thing will be to attract to antiquity. viktor yakobson,

yevhen letvenenko and oleksandr alfanov, tsn, 1.1. marathon, only news. there will be no house arrest. judge chaika of the shevchenkivskyi court refused to consider the request of ihor kolomoisky's lawyers to change the preventive measure. the meeting was held today and lasted no more than 15 minutes. lawyers asked the court to change. the temporary measure of the businessman due to the deterioration of his health was replaced by house arrest on the suspicion of the alleged seizure of cash funds of the private bank at the end of 2013 and in 2014, a total of almost uah 6 billion. the suspect calls this version of the investigation absurd, because the bank was audited at least once a year during nationalization, large-scale checks, so he says it was impossible not to notice the disappearance of 6 billion in cash, according to the party: the defense asks to be questioned

all the heads of the national bank since 2013 and the management of the nationalized private bank, two from this list are on the international wanted list, yagrokoloyskyi has been in sizo for more than three months, during which time, the lawyers say, he has not been provided with professional and sufficient medical care, and 51 investigators , who are conducting this business, did not do this. we will use our right, we will turn to kyiv appeals. court with an appeal against this decision, we believe that this decision does not meet the procedural requirements legislation. purification of ukraine from the imperial heritage, the decree on removal from the state register of monuments, cultural heritage, monuments to figures of the soviet period and russians was adopted by the government on the initiative of the ministry of culture. in particular, it is about the russian poet pushkin, the soviet commander shchors and others. from now on, 13 monuments, including pedestals in the capital, are subject to demolition, and this will happen

in the coming weeks, the department says, after dismantling, monuments that have artistic value will be sent to special museums, and those that do not have it will be disposed of in their place, they plan to honor modern ukrainian heroes, it will not be here, just as there will not be another 12 monuments of the soviet and russian imperial era, which glorified, are not typical on the territory of ukraine values ​​for us. the decision was made at the government level. this is not the first and, thank god, not the last decision. the cleanup is ongoing, and after the government's decision, local authorities have the full right to carry out demolition measures. returning to international sports. russian and belarusian athletes participated without hindrance. in the european judo championship, which ended a few days ago in france, and now they are also preparing for

the fencing world cup. of course, all of them are supposedly in a neutral status, but in fact there is a lot of evidence that they visited the occupied territories or are general military personnel. so tsn correspondent serhiy morgun researched the topic. three days of competition, half a dozen sparring matches and two medals of the european championship. judo is going to ukraine. i returned on sunday evening. judoka bohdan yadov won bronze in the weight category of 66 kg. but here dilshot khalmatov - silver medalist, his weight class. category 60, the competition was very high, because there were a lot of strong athletes, the most difficult for our guys was with the dutch, azerbaijanis and french, and morally, although they did not fight with them, with the russians, despite a long sports ban, they were still allowed to competitions, this

is the first time we compete with, well, we got into the same competitions with them, it's a shame, because it 's an unhealthy wasteland, to allow them, we are at war, and russia... the athletes, although they competed under a neutral flag, actions of their country support, it is clearly visible from their social networks, perhaps that is why they were forbidden to communicate with others and were accommodated in a separate hotel. there were three hotels, that is, they lived in two hotels, split in half, half there, half there, and they lived separately, only they were in the hall, they had already hid in a corner there so that no one could see them, and there, and there they sat, no did not leave their corner, communicated only among themselves. all russian athletes were banned from performing in february 2022, when russia launched a full-scale war against of ukraine, and it lasted for about a year, until the international olympic committee changed its decision. there was only one compromise that the boycotting countries of russians and belarusians were ready to take.

i think this could be a compromise proposal. in order to avoid accusations that we are guided by nationality, or there is any discrimination based on passports, we could create not a neutral team, but a team of refugees, which people of russian or belarusian nationality, dissidents against the regimes of putin and lukashenka could participate. in practice, the neutral status of sportsmen absolutely does not meet the criteria of dissidence. it is obvious that most, if not almost all, russian and belarusian athletes have not given up supporting the actions of their regimes. we decided to make a series of materials about russian sports, which are not neutral at all. a bunch of trips to crimea, a bunch of likes in support of the occupation, a bunch of photos with the occupiers. oleksandr myasishchev, investigator of bab publication. sifted through the social networks of more than a hundred russian athletes and, in addition to the occupied territories visited by them or support behind the symbols, found that only among judokas who were admitted to the eurochampionship a few days ago in france, there were 15 active soldiers of the russian army and merlan bashayev, an ensign in the rosarmy, mansun lorsanov , a member of the russian guard, inal tosayev and medina taymazova, also ensigns in the russian

army, as madina taymazova herself can butially, if she is in cska, it is central. the army sports club, it is subordinate to the ministry of defense, ah, that it performed for the children of the dpr, that is, it was in the month of april, in april of the 22nd year, that it held an event for children who were kidnapped from the occupied territory, she was photographed against the background of a poster with putin, in support of the war. the same achievements are also in the biographies of russian boxers, tennis players, swimmers, fencers, and even if they really spoke out against the war and putin, this does not make them neutral, because the application. the participation of these athletes is submitted to the russian federation of sports and their olympic committee, which directly embody the aggressive intentions of the kremlin. our arguments are the opening of branches in donetsk, luhansk regions, crimea, and by the way, these arguments were accepted by the european confederation of fecting, it is as if what unites the european federations, and

their membership has been suspended. but mok decided to postpone this issue indefinitely. one can only guess whether the russian oligarch, a close friend of putin, alisher usmanov, who until recently headed the international fencing federation and was removed from the activity, but did not resign, has an influence on this. but one way or another, the fencers of russia and belarus have been admitted to international competitions since the summer, in the same supposedly neutral status that provides for the condemnation of russian aggression. but anna smirnova did not hide her connections with the support of the occupying army, and then came out with the idea of ​​provoking a duel with our olga harlan . blade, but the ukrainian woman's offer, the russian woman ignored and filed a complaint, and olga harlan was disqualified. we understood that the country that terrorizes our state,

our people, is ours. families, also terrorizes and sport. as it turned out, for the first time in history, the rules were rewritten already during the competition, and to be precise, the night before harlan's speech, none of the countries were warned that the only possible greeting was a handshake. in my opinion, this is exactly what they were driving for then, that they had to not beat the ukrainian there on the court, that the most important thing was on the track, that the main task was to take a picture with him, how he was shaking hands and then show what he was watching, sports out of politics, at that time harlan was deprived of fighting for another medal, but numerous complaints and publicity in the press forced to reconsider the decision of disqualification, and the next day the ukrainian athlete returned to the competition in the team. the blocking of her ticket to the 2024 olympic games was also terminated. but whether the russians and belarusians will go to them, discussions have been going on for

almost a year. 35 countries, including france, which will host the olympics, have already signed an appeal to moc to prevent them, but there is no final decision yet. serhiy morgun, hennadiy shulga and oleksandr sheyan tsn: 1.1. marathon, the only news. meanwhile, russian skiers. but in transcarpathia , law enforcement officers exposed criminal production at one of the local enterprises for the national team of the aggressors, where winter jackets were made, and next to the russian symbols there was a label made in ukraine. it is known that the owner of the enterprise, an italian, directed the order of russians to the transcarpathian factory at the beginning of the year and since then, according to the investigation, 40 wholesale batches have been produced there. seamstresses from all over the region worked there, and the last one. stroke of the emblem of the country the terrorists trusted attach five ski jackets, headed through italy. at the same time, the emblems were sealed with gauze tape.

investigations are ongoing at the enterprise, the culprits face up to 10 years in prison with confiscation of property. no more than five seamstresses, who were selected from trusted persons, were engaged in the execution of the russian order. seamstresses also received additional training. regarding non-disclosure of the fact of cooperation in favor of the aggressor country among others, acquaintances and relatives. and let me remind you that today we are dedicating part of our issue to the people of kherson, tomorrow they are are celebrating the anniversary of the liberation of their city from the russian invaders, as the head of the kherson military administration has already announced, no large-scale events are planned, because the city is still under heavy fire from the occupiers. but these days we remember and talk about people, about those. thanks to whom the ukrainian flag flies over the city, about those who are even under occupation, a story that personally made me cry a year ago, this is the story of archie and his grandmother,

they hug in the same place, in front of the gate of their house, my old lady is nearby, and this is footage from a year ago, the soldier runs to the woman who meets him on ired's lap. remembering this story, now mrs. lidia is laughing, she got out, and everything is already running, i think, it’s the same rashist, and here is our little one, your dove, and the grandmother, both out of joy and out of fear, as she fell, she didn’t break the car, my god, i scream hysterically , those were the days when mrs. lydia... then laughed and couldn't believe it, they were released, he went out for a walk with the dog, come, i think, he only went out of the gate and

came back, i think why did he come back, and he says, kherson released, i say, what are you? he's a fool, and he's crying, he hasn't cried for anyone, my grandfather is already 75 years old, almost, he's crying, i say, it can't be, and then i hear honking, cars honking, that's all, as she left, people are standing here, boys are running, young people run up and congratulate them, glory to the heroes, two days later our cat arrived, at home the fighter of the archy is simply oleg, the video that so moved the users of social networks was filmed by his brothers, together they were on a task and he asked to drive down the street and past his relatives' house, you know, like in a dream, because i really wanted it, to go home, to see all this while in occupation, because there was no communication then, only sterin stood in the center of the city, when you could call someone there from there and could not

dial either grandmother or grandfather, tell them to at least come out to me there for a second, and so it just happened that i see that there is an open wave. oleg's mother, maryna anatolivna, was in kyiv at the time during the evacuation, she says, this video was a report for her, she went with the younger children, she was there and there was no contact with her mother for a week. and we still corresponded with him and i asked, please, my son, if you get to the house, go home, look, at least, well, at least i wrote, say they are alive, healthy, how are they, and this video was filmed for my mother to show that he went home, mrs. marina says, then she thought that the report too short, because i didn’t see the grandfather and the dog lila on it, only then did they understand that these shots are already history, we were fighting for a day before that, they didn’t know what was happening here, and we are in kyiv, all over ukraine, kherson people in kyiv, this is kherson somewhere in ukraine, and we are writing off, ours is already there, as my mother did

called, that's why papa already sees our family at night, my god, everyone, well, excuse me, there, someone is drinking, someone else... this, it was like that, we stood on our ears for a day, we cried, we prayed, we experienced such stress, who surely has not experienced it, yes, it, it is impossible to convey these feelings. later , archie and his siblings stopped by grandma's again, where everyone is always greeted like this, with tea and a set table. natashenka, we have such a thing with archie's mother immediately after the liberation of kherson, she immediately returned home, and despite the constant the shots stay here and wait on the arch, he has been fighting for a year and a half, he is used to shots and shelling, he is nervous in donetsk region, when his relatives are in kherson, do you know that everything will be fine with them, i am sure for some reason, you know this, i don’t know, for some reason, i understand that it is not easy for everyone now, and if i continue to burden myself with the fact that they are here on the first sunday

of the occupation, i definitely understood that i will fight, but i did not understand how to leave, they were only able to leave occupied kherson after three months, while archie stayed, he helped the locals, and then he took his mother and younger children to kyiv and joined the army. a month later, i got to england, i went through assault infantry courses there. came back to ukraine. in the lviv region, i took courses for the commander of a 152 mm gun, he fights cheerfully, pumbaa, anu, a rescuer by education found himself in the war, in case you ran out of pecs, let's take it, let's go, of course, it's not easy here, fiction. arrival, but

does he know what it's all for? recharge , when i felt, probably, this is the very foundation for which we are fighting, because well, when you see the eyes of children, there old, bent people who look at you with such hope, who actually love you. well, but they don't know you, but they already love you, for the fact that you protected them there , the grandson changed during the war, tell me honestly, well, he became like that, you know, how solid, like that, that's all, even though i know that she a baby, but still a warrior, a warrior, a defender , we also notice the change, a year ago archie communicated with us

in russian, i... they think that we all need to somehow become more ukrainianized, because our language is very rich, melodious, charming, you can say, that's why i think it's necessary in a kind of language, it's very, very important, archie is sure, the war will end and he will return home, there is no need to think whether he can return, or we must return here here, we must raise our land, so to speak , from the position where he is now, when you are a different place and here is this background created by the war, well, for example , it hurts me a lot, there spiritually, mentally, i want to make it so that it is completely the opposite and there in 100 times better than it was before, lady lydia is embarrassed, but archie's mother tells her that while her grandson is fighting, my grandmother helps other soldiers, she is helping me now , the boys need clothes, the hospital has everything, but when

the boys are brought in, their uniforms are torn, the uniforms are taken off, what to change him into, there is nothing , and babushka is now everywhere with all the humanitarians, with all of us.
