countering russian information attacks in the information war chronicle project with olga len. on monday, tuesday, thursday at 17:15 on espresso tv channel. hello, this is svoboda ranok, an informational project of radio svoboda. top guests every day, this is the ship district, kherson, live inclusion. we are somewhere in the vicinity of bakhmut, we are telling the main thing. on weekdays at 9:00. well, we're moving on, and now it's time to talk about money. oleksandr morchyvka, next to me, money during the war. alexander, please. i congratulate the audience, i congratulate vasylya, the closest ones minutes, i will briefly review important economic events for today, as well as the main topic. that we will discuss with our

expert is whether water tariffs will increase and whether water pumps will stop due to expensive electricity, all about this in detail in a moment. i'm oleksandr morchenko, congratulations, this is a column about money during the war. we are monitoring the situation on the ukrainian-polish border, so the blockade has significantly complicated the delivery of products from europe to ukraine. the priority for retail chains now is our products, this is not bad for consumers, of course, but the situation will affect the rise in prices for a number of goods. such results were shown by a survey of retailers. for example, in the kolo trade network, they said that they are building small stocks in warehouses for the christmas-new year period, but the blocking of the polish-ukrainian border disrupts business processes, in particular, prices may change for cocoa. coffee, oranges and

even salt, and i want to tell you here that the karva probably still exists, on the border of germany with poland, if you go from wroclaw to dreszne, well, there is still frankfurt you can go, hundreds and possibly thousands of polish trucks are stuck, according to eyewitnesses, the line stretches for 40 km, well , there is probably even a photo here, and here the ukrainian transporter, serhiy vladik, published it on his social networks, he says that just german customs officers very carefully check all polish cars entering the country, and here... there are only polish trucks standing, he says , the germans check everyone, a million questions, fill out questionnaires, let them feel a little charm, let them feel, and we will monitor it , as far as the future is concerned the unblocking of this border will still take place, because tens of thousands of euros , hryvnias, and dollars are basically stuck due to a certain, well, political situation, i am sure that the economy here does not smell like vasyl, absolutely, well, we are watching it, we

are watching with international help. let's go further. ukraine will receive a grant of 50 million euros from germany. this is money for business loans. raised funds will be directed to the continuation of the state program of support for entrepreneurs 579. head of the government denys shmyl reminded that last week the european union provided our state the next tranche of macro-financial assistance, amounting to one billion euros. the state budget also received 400 million dollars. money from great britain, it went through the trust fund of the world bank. well, also, the strategic international financial partner of our state, the european investment bank, is opening a new representative office in kyiv, it will work in the countries of eastern europe, provide enhanced support to the region in general, cooperate and coordinate work with the investbank branches in moldova and georgia. let me remind you, from the beginning of the great war. this one

the institution provided immediate assistance to our state, allocated almost 2 billion euros for the repair of our critical infrastructure destroyed by russian bombing. the european union investment bank also provided a credit line. we are talking about 4 billion, these are funds for the integration of refugees in the countries of the european union. well, the zaporizhzhia region may be left without water, the property of the regional water utility was seized or because of debts, the industry association ukrvodokanal ekologiya reported about this. well, if we have a representative of this organization in touch, we expected that dmytro novitskyi would join, then we will talk with him in detail, while he is added to the conversation. indeed, vasyl, today you spoke with an entrepreneur, philanthropist, kostyantyn zhivago, and talked about the fact that the increase in electricity will have negative consequences, well, for business in general, here we are talking not only about water utilities, which we will talk about.

minutes, i hope to speak, well, yes, he actually said that the business, well, i am not talking about some overly large business, perhaps which has certain assets and this safety cushion is financial, and those that, well no... money will not be invested in upgrading the equipment, or in any new jobs, well, some will survive, some simply will not be able to survive, this is an objective fact, if there is no money to develop, work, you will not be able to do this , but the most important thing is that this business, which at least somehow works and at least somehow pays taxes, not somehow, but simply pays taxes for the budget, this money now goes simply to the armed forces of ukraine, we have to understand this, vasyl, there are really economic laws , if electricity tariffs have increased, then it is clear that economically they should... grow on both gas and water, because everything depends on these resources, so you won't hurt the reserve of space in this one, you just cut it and that's it, well, that is, the margin of safety it is also limited at water utilities, and here experts say that it is only

a matter of a few months, during this time, utility companies will mostly start to simply stop their work, and until we try to recruit dmytro novytsy, the president of the ukrvodo association... nalelogy, i will continue tell the main news from the world of money for today, let's go further. shipments of free russian grain should begin arriving in africa within days. yes, erephia will once again try to strengthen its influence on the continent. this is reported by the bloomberg agency. at the july russian-african summit held in st. petersburg, putin promised to send grain to six african countries for free. president of the country. resorted to such a step because of the criticism it received, because of the war in ukraine, because of the fact that it withdrew from the grain agreement, well, all this entailed growth global prices for food and fertilizers - bloomberg experts say. the total volume of grain supplies is 2,000 tons by the end

of the year, putin is going to supply these 200,000 tons to african countries, and vasyl is here to help. 2,000 tons, the prime minister, denys shmigal, accused russia that refia stole our grain worth 1 billion dollars, i think that this is exactly the stolen ukrainian grain and will be supplied to african countries, well, yes, indeed, i remember here, to on the day of the famine, vitaly portnikov said that putin not only wanted to make a famine in ukraine, he wanted to to actually take control of this grain market of the world in order to be able to manipulate and play on prices, because actually a huge number of people who need this bread depend on you, and indeed russia remains a significant player on the food market, and still remains a major player in the energy sector. however, the power of siberia-2, which is supposed to replace

gazprom's lost european market, is progressing slowly, hindered by the construction of a gas pipeline, but china has become the same, through which the main line should pass, it is reported international mass media, analyze the situation and refer to certain such conversations in moscow. so the celestial empire refuses to invest in the construction of the power of siberia-2 pipeline. the kremlin offers to pay the long-standing bill in full, they are not going to invest anything in the prc, in addition, they demand further discounts on russian gas, mass media. writes that putin now, well, in fact , has no choice, he has to reorient himself to the chinese market, he is under great pressure, since it is necessary to complete this pipe, muscovy simply has nowhere to sell, huge amounts of blue fuel, which

the european union refuses. well, dmytro novytskyi, president of the ukrvodokanal ecology association, joins the conversation. good evening. good evening. mr. dmytro, i will repeat the information that the zaporizhzhia region may be left without water, the property of the regional water supply company was seized due to the debts of your association, this information, outline what the situation is, what debts and whether it will be possible to cover and whether the utility company needs to cover this shortage. a situation really arose before us, for us very strange, because we drew attention to both associations and individual enterprises , the cabinet of ministers and the nsdc and the national regulator regarding the situation that arose precisely with the payment of electricity consumption by units that were in the occupied territory, accordingly , there are government decisions that would have to be executed at least, electricity-generating organizations and not

to apply sanctions, but unfortunately, according to the court decision, which is strange, and now the equipment of the regional zaporizhzhia water supply company has been arrested, as if a meeting was held with the governor, who set the task of settling the issue, however , unfortunately, there is still no final decision on lifting the seizure from the relevant utility equipment, there is a temporary solution, the company's equipment was returned so that they could carry out repair work, but the decision on lifting the seizure has not yet been that there is no mr. dmytro, well, we talked today, in the studio with vasyl we talked about the topic of raising electricity tariffs, of course it happened. it's for household consumers, still drags in power and the increase in the price of kilowatts for businesses,

to what extent now water utilities, in fact, have large debts, whether they pay for electricity, whether this entails an increase in water prices, there is a lot of talk about it, but the hands of utility companies are still tied, so to speak, the situation... . is really quite complicated, because last year, this year , excuse me, and last year and this year , the tariff was set twice and this tariff was practically canceled twice, because the regulator, accordingly, could not explain, i think so, to the cabinet ministers, and regarding the situation around the financing of activities in the water utility, and we are talking about the fact that the current tariff is based on the indicators of the 21st year, corresponding to the growth of individual components,

such as: the cost of electricity, the cost of materials, the cost of equipment, the cost of reagents , they had a significant impact on the financial condition of enterprises, and today we cannot pay the full range of all our expenses, including, we reduced the costs of implementing investment programs, we reduced the possibility of water utilities to eliminate emergency... situations and, accordingly, a rather strange situation when enterprises pay attention to the implementation of the law, or legal regulations, current regulations, regarding the establishment of the tariff for the 202nd, i am not talking about the 22nd, at least the 23rd year , however, as of today, this provision of the law has not been fulfilled and accordingly. water utilities are suffering, the debt for electricity consumption has already reached 7

billion hryvnias, and this quite significantly affects the financial condition of enterprises, including, as an example, the actions that arose from of the energy supply organization, the use of stations against the zaporizhzhia regional water canal, i say once again, for the disconnection... we do not have the opportunity to pay for the consumption of electric energy in full, therefore the debt for electric energy, it began to grow, and we call on you for this, thank you , who joined the program , dmytro novytskyi, the president of the ukrvodokanal ekologiya association, was on the phone . the price of electricity prices really entails an increase in water tariffs, it will happen sooner or later, but economically we will come to this, consumers certainly

do not want this, but there are certain factors, well, i will just monitor this situation, i will tell later more, stay with the great ether, watch us. kyiv dynamo won the second victory after the resignation of mircea luchesko. in the match of the 15th round of the ukrainian premier league, the wards of oleksandr shovkovsky defeated the lviv movement on their own field. the people of lviv started the game with active pressing, but conceded twice in the first half. oleksandr tymchyk took advantage of yuriy volodymyr hereta's unsuccessful pass after the goalkeeper's mistake. vladyslav kabaev scored the second goal a few minutes before the break. this one is for him. statue in a white and blue t-shirt. in the second half, dynamo kept the advantage in the score, while wasting

about the southern cyclone, which caused a serious complication of the weather, and snowfall. and a strong storm wind and, well, very unpleasant consequences, you have read, seen, heard all this, and i want to start our meeting today, actually, with information, what is a semi-diurnal cyclone and in general, when did this concept appear, because, well, from the name it is clear that a cyclone that originates in the south, as a rule, these cyclones come to us from the regions of the balkans or the mediterranean, so, a southern cyclone, in general, the ideas about these atmospheric vortices, about the cyclone and about the anticyclone, you know that it is also an atmospheric vortex, but with the highest atmospheric pressure inside, were formed in the middle of the xix century, and for the first time they were models proposed by english sailors, but at that time the daily synoptic maps, it was simply based on many years of experience when studying cloudiness and wind in

a cyclone, but in 1863 the english researcher, admiral fitzroy, the first head of the london meteorological service and proposed model of a cyclone like this. viceroy discovered that a cyclone usually consists of two air masses with different temperatures. that is , he predicted that the formation of a cyclone occurs at the boundary of two different air flows. and it was fitzroy who noted that cyclones rarely appear alone, they usually come in series, these are two or three cyclones. and by the way, the tendency of cyclones to pass, to appear in series, was once again discovered 60 years later by bjöknes and sulberg. and i would also like to add that the cyclone actually has three stages of development: young, mature and aging fading. well, we are moving on, now we will definitely talk about the cyclone, now we are moving on to magnetic storms, and for your attention the forecast chart for the next day, and it shows that

nothing so serious will happen here, that is, all our attention now to cyclones and atmospheric... actually to the weather, but we simply always observe magnetic activity and of course at the first threat or increase of this magnetic activity, i will inform you, and we return to the weather forecast on the next day, of course, it is very interesting what will happen after this cyclone, which, by the way , left the borders of the territory of ukraine a day earlier, tomorrow, tomorrow in the western regions of ukraine, from which we usually start our forecast, a little snow is expected. in general, the west suffered the least from this cyclone, so a little snow, i think there will be nothing terrible, well, it will be more likely even during the day, especially wet snow, because the air temperature is maximum. from two degrees of frost somewhere to 2° of heat, and a gusty wind, but not stormy, in the north of ukraine, no precipitation is expected tomorrow, a respite, so to speak,

and it will be cold at night, up to 7 to 8° of frost, during the day somewhere within 0.4° of frost and in the extreme north of chernihiv oblast, up to -5, in the east of ukraine tomorrow it will also be not just without precipitation, but maybe even with sunny manifestations , the air temperature is also very diverse from three degrees of frost to four degrees of heat, you can see it on your screens, in the central part of ukraine, from vinnytsia to dnipropetrovsk region, also tomorrow without significant precipitation, although maybe it will be and cloudy, at night the frost is somewhere up to -5-10°, during the day -1-3. no precipitation is expected in the southern part of ukraine tomorrow, and it will be the warmest part of ukraine. which is logical +8 +7 +9° in crimea by 10:12. well, tomorrow there will be no cyclone in kyiv,

the atmospheric pressure will rise tomorrow, it has already started to rise today, it is cold at night -6 -8 in the day close to zero and insignificant precipitation. and literally in one or two sentences, i want to say that tomorrow is already, as i said , a respite from the cyclone, but on the 29th, i will specify this on wednesday... until november 29 in ukraine, remember, i said that cyclones come in series, the second series , so to speak, another young active cyclone sets in, and again the essential complication of weather conditions, sleet, sticking sleet, snow, blizzards, strengthening of the wind, and on the 30th , the lulling of such active processes again, but i remind you once again that another active cyclone will visit ukraine on wednesday. thank you very much natalka didenko for the information about the weather, we will survive, take care of each other, donate and help

the armed forces of ukraine, and i will say goodbye to you, good evening, we are from ukraine. not a minority in which it is good, let's imagine the situation, i come to berehovo, where everything is in hungarian, where the notice about the discount in the store is also in hungarian, where the sign is in hungarian, i don't know hungarian, the state language is ukrainian, but the owners of shops, pizzerias, restaurants, they do not consider it necessary to write it in ukrainian, how do i feel on the coast, not like in hungary, but like in ukraine, on the contrary , all this must be, designed in ukrainian and can be duplicated in the national language, that is , take-out and advertising must be in ukrainian with a possible duplication in the language national

minorities, this is provided for in the draft law, well, thank you for this clarification, mr. viktor, i have read a lot of criticism about this draft law, that the norms laid down there were not discussed with the representatives of the national minorities themselves, you, as a person who is professionally responsible for this issue, what do you say? discuss? or not, well, i will say that it is you who give me such a pass, because we have conducted 42 consultations with national minorities and there are no such national minorities with which consultations were not carried out, you understand, i want to continue what olga said about vitalyivna, we are doing this, this law is for our citizens, it is our responsibility, but more than 10 years ago, there were recommendations of the venice commission. to the constitution of hungary and they, that is, the venetians, directly told the hungarians that , dear hungarians, when you talk about

your responsibility to the hungarian nation, yes, you should not understand it broadly, because the hungarians living in romania, in ukraine, in slovakia, these are citizens of ukraine, slovakia, romania, respectively, and these countries have. the main responsibility for these people, and therefore we have this responsibility and we provide our national minorities with the rights they should have, in accordance , firstly, with international law, secondly with the constitution of ukraine and finally with the law on national minorities of the community, once again we had consultations with all... national minorities, and on november 24, it was, consultations were held for the first time in ukrainian history, of national minorities with

the prime minister. with the prime minister of ukraine, that is, these negotiations were not always easy, yes, because we have to to satisfy national minorities, on the other hand, to preserve a single , cultural, educational, and informational space, and in the process of these consultations, precisely this balance, this equilibrium, was precisely what was worked out, but there are fears, for example, of the parliamentary opposition, that according to these new norms that are being discussed in the parliament. if now 80-90%, for example, of songs on the radio are in ukrainian, then in the places of compact residence of national mershyns, if you give them the opportunity to dilute it, they are afraid, for example, mp volodymyr vitrovich is afraid that at once will be able to fill 25% of the airwaves in russian , and in a few years they will be able to legally reach 70% of russian-language programs, but for the fact that they will fill this airwaves with russian, people's

deputy vitrovych definitely does not need it. well, of course, it talks about the speeches of national minorities, eu countries, yes, and it talks about five years, after the end of martial law, during which nothing will be disseminated, it remains russian, the russian language, the language of the aggressor country, as red lines in seven, five years, yes, it will be with... it is clear what it is about, because it is now in such an international space, which deals with ethnopolitics, understanding, positions, when a minority wants to become a majority, yes, it is not only here, it is in many other countries, if the russian minority, yes, wants to be a minority, engage in songs

, then, then it will be a different, different story, yes, when the russian, russian , federation imposed russification on ukraine, this is absolutely also, also a different story, so be afraid of what will happen, russification as a result of what it will receive, some right hungarian , broadcaster, in hungarian or bulgarian, perform? this is not at all a question of the european union, the union, it is not just a matter of space, it is a matter of local media, that is, it concerns localization, precisely in the places of compact residence of national minorities, for this special definitions are given in the law, that is, it is absolutely transparent, understandable story.

yevhen kudryavets, first deputy minister of education and science, another fear, which has been talked about a lot, is that in places where national minorities live compactly, there is a risk when people, graduating from school, do not understand and do not speak the state language, this very narrowly limits their development opportunities within ukraine, then people are actually forced to emigrate to their ethnic homeland, and i want to understand what of all this is taken into account in the new amendments, because there is a fear that again everything will come down to... when , for example, now, as far as i understand, this draft law, well, the law in force provides that some part of the subjects are taught in ukrainian, but there are cases when these subjects, which are taught in ukrainian physical education is written down, that is the one that is in the new draft law, which will make such speculations impossible and make it so that the citizens of ukraine speak the ukrainian language freely, yes indeed, vadim, thank you, this is actually

the most important question that we asked ourselves when we worked on the changes to this legislation, how to guarantee a certain number of hours of teaching in the ukrainian language, and not just declaratively say that we have 20% or 30% or 40% of the ukrainian language, since there really could have been manipulations in educational programs or in educational programs when it was included physical education or technology in teaching in the ukrainian language. in the new legislation, we clearly limit the number of subjects that must be taught in ukrainian . to date, the ukrainian language, ukrainian literature, and the history of ukraine for the basic school are fixed in the draft law, the fifth and ninth grades are more common for everyone, and for the 10th-12th grades , the defense of ukraine is also added, which is in the typical curriculum , which will also be taught in ukrainian. what is important for us, that we first of all think about exactly the question which you are talking about, how this child will be integrated into ukrainian society, to what extent he will be able to become a part of further higher education, the labor market, and so on. ago.

therefore, these subjects are ukrainian language and history.
