national security is already something that does not fit in my head, because yes, changes in the composition of our committees take place by adopting a resolution, that is why i registered such a resolution. well, it must be said, i want to emphasize right away that you are one of the few from your servant of the people faction who comments on this topic at all, we also appealed to the leadership of the faction, in particular to the deputies, they are currently taking a break, they do not comment on this topic, which in general, the faction's position on this issue, whether it is a discussion in internal chats, we know that the deputies have such a thing or not there were behind-the-scenes conversations about whether there is support from the faction to exclude maryana from the committee and recall her from the committee on national security, defense and intelligence, or whether this is also the position of you and certain colleagues, but the leadership of the faction does not take such a position supports, see, regarding the position of the leadership of the faction, this is a question that needs to be asked to them, so far the discussion in the chats has not been clear, so to speak...' about colleagues not commenting,

i would not agree, because a large number of colleagues on factions, including fellow party members, ms. marjano, from the servant of the people party, condemned, well, i saw more than 20 posts on facebook from people 's deputies, condemning these actions of ms. bezukhla, well, we are talking now about those people who were addressed in particular: and yesterday in the evening with a request to comment on what are the chances that maryana bezovla will be removed from this committee? well, in fact, the verkhovna rada will decide here, according to the procedure, this resolution must first be submitted to the committee, accordingly, the committee must at its meeting to support the resolution or not to support it, or to send it to the discretion of the verkhovna rada, and only then it can be put on the agenda of the session hall through the conciliation council, there are

ways to speed up this process, well, i will try to apply all the regulatory methods in order to the resolution was considered in the hall as soon as possible, and it is in the hall, and not in social networks, that people's deputies will be able to express their opinion directly by voting. just why i mention it, because if you analyze the media, then it was about that, in particular, it seems that in february, this year fedir venislavskyi, also a colleague from the faction in the party, marijani bezul, already registered some kind of similar resolution, it is not clear, however, how it all ended, i have another question for you, david in a recent interview he gave to natalka moseychuk, arakhamia said that ukraine has a mobilization resource and it is currently known, but when the military leadership is asked to give a vision, there is no vision, just a quote from his vision, we just live , as we lived, it's not us

it is satisfactory, in general, what is the position of the faction with, in particular, you, as a member of the servant of the people faction, can definitely voice from the conversations that took place about the military leadership of ukraine today, whether there are any claims against mr. zaluzhny, whether there are any claims against other military leadership, the generals, who today lead one or another direction, what does the servant of the people faction think about the activities of the military leadership of ukraine today, because the 23rd is coming to an end, it will be the 24th soon, are there any questions? well, actually, i can only speak for myself here, and because you and i are holding this conversation in kyiv in 2023 this year, and kyiv is protected , probably better than any capital in the world now, and we speak ukrainian, so i definitely have no complaints against the military leadership, we we are doing everything right, and as for the fact that this main claim is the lack of a plan, which is heard from various

sides to the military leadership, well, i am sure that this is, well, a very manipulative approach, because how can we discuss a military plan in public, if the military plan becomes known to the enemy, then this plan is automatically ineffective, and it will also be unsuccessful, so about military plans, approach, i am sure that this is not the place. this is, well, just a public plane, this is not the place to discuss it, we can only talk about successes, and we frankly have successes, in 2022 ukraine demonstrated that it can withstand the fight against one of the strongest armies in the world, in the fight against an unprecedented for the 21st century aggression, we resisted, in the 23rd year we demonstrated that we can not

only defend, we can attack, we can we effectively uh free the territories, uh, the 24th year i'm sure will be the uh year of resilience testing because again we shouldn't put on rose colored glasses and think that this is some kind of automatic process, we we are really fighting an extremely strong enemy, this enemy sees no alternative but to destroy us, that is why it is somehow pointless to talk about negotiations, because the enemy's desire for us will not disappear from nowhere, even under the condition of some negotiations. mr. igor, we are just running out of air time, two more short questions, to show that we can be stable, and i am sure that any such efforts will create

doubts in the society, in the western partners, that we have confidence in the military command, that that we have confidence in the political leadership. mr. yulia, you appreciated a lot, i can’t help but ask, the western media wrote about the fact that there is probably a conflict between the president’s office and the military command, today you mentioned the deputy head of the president’s office, from your point of view as a deputy, as you say , who can speak for themselves, is there any confrontation today, at least minimal, in ukraine between the office of the president and the military command? look, speaking of confrontation, luckily i don't see any signs of it. i only see these efforts to really create some kind of political history and drag the military leadership into a political dialogue , we need to categorically stop all these efforts, namely, one more short nuance, when

they can consider the resolution, so the resolution is completely and when they can possibly consider it in the nearest future, if you know it will depend on how the committee will be conducted, most likely it will be a regulatory committee, these resolutions are usually signed on this committee of the supreme council, so the question will be for the chairman of the regulatory committee, whether he will put this resolution on the agenda of the committee meeting, well, if not put, we will ask questions. i thank you for your consideration for commenting on this situation, ihor kryvosheev, people's representative of ukraine, servant of the people faction, initiator of the resolution on the exclusion of marina bezuglloya from the parliamentary committee on issues of defense, intelligence and security. state secretary antony blinkin arrived in brussels to take part in the first meeting of the ukraine-nato council and to confirm support for ukraine in the war with russia. this was reported by the reuters agency with reference to blinken's assistant for europe-taurasia affairs. in brussels, blinkin will emphasize the ongoing commitment of the united states and its

of the united states, so far only clocks. russia, which the alliance identified as a threat, is now putting pressure on one of the allies, the secretary general noted, namely finland, which is now closing its borders with russia. ens stoltenberg noted that moscow facilitates the arrival of migrants there, and assured helsinki in solidarity from the allies. he assured ukraine of their readiness to continue helping it fight against russian aggression and noted the successes that, in the opinion of the nato secretary general, ukrainian forces have achieved despite the fact that the front line is practically immobile. military achievements are measured not only in square meters, but also in the losses you can inflict on the enemy. ukrainians. were able to inflict great losses on the russian invaders, both in terms of personnel and casualties, and in the reduction of combat capabilities, so these are significant gains, and they were also able to push back. ukrainian, figuratively speaking, day at the headquarters of the alliance, tomorrow, at the same time, for the first time

, the ukraine nato council will meet at the level of top diplomats. at this session, the state department emphasized, announcing the meeting, the ministers will be able to confirm the unwavering support of the alliance of ukraine, as well as talk about what will happen in the coming months and ukraine's path to nato, in particular, the priority reforms that it has to implement. allies will agree on recommendations in this direction - said the secretary general. adding that they agree ukraine's place in nato. the meeting will last two days, and the officials will summarize its results tomorrow. from brussels, zoryana stepanenko, marek hajduk, radio liberty. this is the freedom of the mornings, a project about what is important, and further on in our broadcast, do not miss it. the sbi has completed the investigation of the helicopter crash in brovary, this is kyiv region, during which the minister of internal affairs, denys monastyrskyi, died. the management of the department, what did the investigators manage to establish and was it possible to avoid the disaster?

national energy company of ukraine ukrenergo received an additional 24.5 million euros from the german government to strengthen the ukrainian energy system. in kyiv, in turn , two main high-voltage power transmission lines, which were damaged during an attack by russian forces on the capital, have already resumed operation. what is the state of ukraine's energy system now and what are the threats. in the comments. write what topics you are interested in, maybe they will become topics for our broadcast in the future. officials of the state emergency service of ukraine violated traffic and operation safety rules air transport, which led to the death of 14 people, including the then minister of internal affairs denys monastyrsky. the investigation of the helicopter crash that happened on january 18 in brovary has been completed by the state bureau of investigation. everything was on board then. the then leadership of the ministry of internal affairs. the investigators established that the officials of the state emergency service involved in the transportation a helicopter that was on duty in

case of emergency situations in kyiv and the region. the helicopter did not have permits for other types of flights. during preparation for the flight of the commander the crew was not informed of adverse weather conditions over the breweries. the helicopter was flying at an extremely low altitude, which is even lower than the height of the buildings on the route. the crew commander saw a high-rise building across the street and began to maneuver. flight, however, rose sharply and lost orientation in space. five officials were informed of suspicion under the articles of violation of safety rules and official negligence. the investigation established that the officials committed flagrant violations of the rules of traffic safety and operation of air transport, which led to the death of people. dbbr investigators reconstructed the day of the accident minute by minute, including deciphering the black boxes. foreign experts joined the investigation, including representatives of the french company, the manufacturer of the helicopter. when

the helicopter fell, it damaged a kindergarten, nearby buildings and cars. according to the state emergency service , 14 people died. as a result of the accident , the head of the ministry of internal affairs, denys monastyrskyi, and his first deputy, yevhenniy yenin, died. other employees are three crew members. in addition to high-ranking officials of the ministry of internal affairs, four also died women and a young child, who just came to the kindergarten, reports dbbr. our guest at the moment is tetyana sepyan, communications advisor of the state bureau of investigation of ukraine. i welcome you. however, i wish you good morning and good morning and peace to all ukrainians. ms. tetyana, there is an understanding of why those accused by the state security bureau of violations were allowed on this flight. actually, why did they approach this flight so negligently, when the ministry of internal affairs' own leadership was on board, what kind of data, let's say, the investigation has. easy, if. you and i will fully analyze the situation, and we will recall there january 18, the beginning of the year, and this

tragedy directly, and the fact that the investigation had been investigating for 10 months, and as you noted above, and my colleague olya chukanova also spoke about the fact that in order to the investigation was 100% confident in its evidence base, and accordingly in the declaration of suspicion, for this, in addition to ukrainian professional experts, foreign experts and representatives of the french company that produced this helicopter were involved, so that this the evidence base for the suspects, five officials of the state emergency service, was indisputable, dozens of examinations were carried out, all witnesses of this tragedy were questioned and investigative experiments were carried out, and of course , the day of the accident, why it happened, you actually already reported, because you were violated

rules of flight safety, which caused the death of people and great material damage, and official negligence was also present, you know, i can assume that it is possible that such a ukrainian thing played a role here, if it does happen, then not with us, but this tragic case shows that instructions and laws, if they are prescribed, cannot be neglected, and of course the sbi hopes that this will never happen again, and that people who hold certain positions will follow the norms and rules, especially when it comes to security. canvases and especially if it concerns everything that happens under the conditions of martial law, patyano , an important clarification, please tell me, in the opinion of the sbi investigators, as of now, the data that is available, could these errors in planning of the flight to be allowed on purpose, that is, could it not have been done just like that, because it happened on purpose, well conditionally, as

it is customary to say, some third hand was involved in this, or this version has already been rejected by the investigators, and you know, it will be like when such a version was considered on purpose, suspicion is announced when there is already a certain amount of material, and the investigation rejects, for example, versions that are specifically related to , for example, i understand, you are hinting at treason, maybe there, or some intelligence agency work, since there are no such versions sounds, and you and i are talking about a violation of flight safety rules and official negligence, so i can state accordingly that the investigation did not consider such a version, another very important nuance, all those who were involved in the process of actually preparing this flight, performing this flight, the dispatchers who accompanied, they understood who was flying on this plane, but they had an idea that the leadership of the ministry of internal affairs, in fact, the entire leadership of the ministry of internal affairs, were on board at that moment. i think it was, i think it was, that's why

respectively, and five suspicions of employees, these are different employees, including the head of the department. of aviation and aviation search and rescue of the state emergency service of ukraine and the acting commander of the unit and the deputy commander of take-off training, and the commander of the aviation squadron, i.e. the head of the flight security service of the special aviation detachment, i.e. you and i understand that these people perfectly understood the permission for what they directly give, on which helicopter is sent on a flight for a working visit, i understand to kharkiv oblast and dnipropetrovsk oblast, how was the leadership of the ministry of internal affairs established , i don't want to interrupt you, we have literally one and a half minutes , i have two more important questions, if you have the numbers, how many witnesses in particular were questioned in this case, specifically regarding the death of the monastery leadership of the ministry of internal affairs. oleg, i’ll be honest with you, i don’t know the exact number, but we can assume with you, since it was

the morning, and the children and the parents, respectively, who were taking the children to kindergarten, i think we can... talk about dozens . and about the death of zaluzhny's assistant major chastyakov, are there any updates in this case, perhaps witnesses have been added, suspects have been added, new facts have been added? what is known as of now? as of now, lying down, it is known that four versions still remain and are being worked out, the main one is an accident, an accident due to careless handling of a weapon, and we are waiting for the results of examinations, you know that the interrogation was questioned about... 12 witnesses, here i can already say the number, and now the results are ongoing, the investigation is waiting for the results of the examinations, when the results will be examinations, then some versions that do not have a confirmation of the evidence base will surely be rejected, and versions that are working will remain, well, you also know that an officer from the staff of assistants

to the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine has been charged with the acquisition and storage of explosive devices, which is provided for by law, a permit , so far at this stage of the investigation. thank you for stepping in and explaining these complicated things in plain language, investigators. tetyana sapyan, communications advisor of the state bureau of investigation, is a guest of our broadcast. by bad weather in ukraine killed ten people, injured 23 people, among them are children. in odesa, five people died, at least 19 people were injured. this was announced by volodymyr zelenskyi in his evening address. the president noted that, in general, the power was cut off due to bad weather. population centers in 17 regions. he thanked the rescuers, drivers, national guardsmen and everyone who helped people during the storm. everyone was provided with the necessary assistance, both at the state and regional levels, operational headquarters will work until the normal situation is restored. currently, the epicenter of the cyclone

is moving in the northern region, everywhere is ready to help. emergency services were informed that they helped to tow more than 1,200 vehicles, due to strong wind and snowfall, traffic was blocked on ten highways in the mykolaiv, odesa, and kirovohrad regions. blizzards, snowfall and strong winds have wreaked havoc over the past two days across eastern and southeastern europe, leaving several dead and hundreds of thousands of people dead. without electricity ukraine, moldova, bulgaria and romania were the most affected by the storm. well, due to bad weather , 882 settlements in 12 oblasts remain without electricity in ukraine, as reported by the ministry of energy of ukraine. these are the data as of the evening. odeshchyna was the most affected. more than 300 settlements, which is about 110,000 consumers, are without electricity. in the mykolaiv region , 150 settlements were cut off. some areas of odessa were left without water and heating

due to power surges and power outages, pumping equipment turns off every 10 minutes and cannot work stably, the local water utility reported. however, the vast majority of pumping stations were switched to generators, and the work of large regional boiler houses was temporarily suspended to prevent emergency situations. the situation is tense. is stable and controlled and there will be no scheduled shutdowns, the ministry of energy says. emergency recovery teams are working in an intensified mode, the department said. volodymyr kudrytskyi, chairman of the board of the national energy company ukrenergo, joins our company broadcast, i welcome you. good morning. let's start with the bad weather, its impact on the power grid, what latest data you have and can announce on our broadcast, about the current state of the power grid after the bad weather that raged and continues to rage in ukraine. fewer settlements have already been disconnected from the 559 power grid as of the morning of today, that is, energy workers have already worked all night and restored several hundred

settlements , the situation remains difficult in odesa, as well as in mykolaiv oblast, kherson oblast, in principle the southern region were the most affected by the bad weather, and restoration work continues there in order to include and restore all consumers. well, as for the kyiv region, the situation here is in principle a little less complicated, and there are no such large-scale disconnections of consumers , currently not observed. we will now dwell specifically on individual cases that we want to talk about, but here is a general question, please tell us if, for example, bad weather will start to rage there in january, in february, at the same pace as it was, for example, last several days, or if stronger. this will happen if russian forces there attack ukraine again and their target is energosima, including, i understand that this is a hypothetical question, but still,

how ready is energosima to withstand an attack from one side, from russian forces and from the weather side? look, recently there was the largest, most massive attack by the martyrs, there were problems with damage to power lines in the central in particular , in the kyiv region, in principle, it was possible to do without introduction of schedules, disconnections of consumers, as you know, and to date , in the kyiv region, for example, all these lines are already included in the work and we have fixed them, as for bad weather, well, every year there are such periods when there are difficult weather conditions conditions, of course, this is not... it goes without certain disconnections of consumers due to surges of wires in oblenergo lines, in particular, but it is certain that this is a fairly common situation, not

related to the war, and as you can see, in one or two days, it is possible to stabilize it. mr. volodymyr, about the war, in kyiv after drone attacks have restored two high-voltage power lines, this is a message from official structures, please tell me if this figure exists, if such calculations are made, how many such lines in general have been damaged since the beginning of the possibly disgraceful season or i do not know there at the beginning of autumn after the russian forces attacked ukraine and still aimed at energy lines? well rest, let's say this, as a result of the last attack on kyiv, three lines were damaged, now all three are working, not two anymore, but three are actually working, as for the total number damaged lines, there are substations , i will not name the number now, because i would not like to give this data on the air, but what was damaged, that is, during the last attack, it is already all in operation, if we are talking about

the deficit electricity, this is such a complex concept, it is very often used in the media, there are telegram channels, please explain what a shortage of electricity is in simple language, once again for our viewers, what it depends on and what are the forecasts, whether it is possible in ukraine in in the near future? is it impossible? we call a deficit of electricity the situation when the amount of electricity offered on the market by ukrainian power plants is less than the amount of planned consumption. in such a situation, we as an operator can bring in additional capacities at power plants to work, if they are at hand, we can also bring in emergency help from our neighbors, which we did, by the way, last week, when, the capacities of ukrainian power plants and imports, import supplies were insufficient to cover consumption, then in principle there was a deficit

- this is a situation where the offered electricity does not fully cover consumption. is this not currently being observed? no, it is not currently observed, this week, due to the fact that the temperatures are not as low as they were last week, the consumption is less, it is much easier for us to pass the evening peaks of consumption on working days, and accordingly we are short for the next few days not expected, but next week. with according to the weather forecasts that are available at the moment, there may be a cooling, consumption may increase, and potentially there may be a shortfall again which will have to be covered by one of the instruments that i mentioned, please tell me when we are talking about peak periods for electricity, as of now, there is an understanding, is it 5pm, 6pm, 7pm, and whether this indicator changes, conditionally, when it is colder, another time for people is peak time, when they have used it to

the maximum or does it not change? it varies depending on the season, the time of year, the maximum consumption in the summer, it comes later, because the daylight hours are longer, somewhere from the 7th to the 9th in the evening, now this consumption peak is observed from 44 to 60 in the evening, this is the evening peak and we also have the morning peak, which is somewhere between 9 and 11 in the morning, and that is taking into account the weather situation. in conclusion, please tell me in which of the regions the most complicated system with power supply, the most difficult situation, i mean power supply, i.e. today odesa, mykolaiv region, i mean what is possible there, these are the southern regions, where there are still signs the consequences of bad weather, well, it is traditionally a difficult situation in the front-line areas, where the enemy is constantly shelling, and there

grids are constantly damaged and emergency crews are forced to constantly restore electricity supply to citizens in such difficult and sometimes rather dangerous conditions. i thank you very much for this enablement, explaining what is happening in the electricity market. volodymyr kudrytskyi, chairman of the board of ukrenergo, is a guest of our broadcast. well, hot news right now, the babel publication reports that the wife of the head of ukrainian intelligence, marianna budanova , was poisoned with heavy metals, she is in the hospital, in the hospital, babel was informed about this sources in intelligence, after a prolonged deterioration of her health, she was hospitalized, the direct quote says that the course of treatment is now ending, these substances are not used in any way in everyday life and military affairs, their presence may indicate a purposeful attempt to poison a specific person , babel reports with reference to intelligence sources, this is
