happened that karina's parents separated long before the war began and lived separately. the girl lived with her mother on a permanent basis, but on the eve of the full-scale invasion, she was with her father when the russians entered, and ended up in the occupied territory. from time to time, the woman says, she corresponded with her daughter on social networks, but in april the connection with karina mysteriously broke off. the girl stopped. to log into my accounts, where she is now, no one knows, i have already written everywhere, even here on this territory, in search of a child, because i don’t know where to shout, how to find a child, i can’t, i’m an adequate mother , для меня child, this was my life, the girl's mother is now also in the occupied territory, but continues to do everything in her power to find her daughter, i want to appeal to everyone who saw or who... something knows about

hello, this is svoboda ranok, informative. top guests every day, this is the shipping district, kherson, live broadcast, we are somewhere in the vicinity of bakhmut, we tell the main thing, on weekdays at 9:00,

i greet you, dear tv viewers, this is big eter, my name is vasyl zima, we are me and my colleagues , for an hour and 45 minutes with you, i can’t break into you, i want to say a lot, well, i said the most important thing, during the program we will talk about a lot of important things,

interesting things, to listen, of course, to our guests, and we will start by announcing the collection that we, together with you, despite the fact that it is a large amount, despite the fact that we are not just trying to collect and send to... velstrum portable stations, so the human and law charity fund, together with the espresso tv channel, are collecting funds for powerful portable velstrum battery stations with solar panels for the 108th dnipropetrovsk separate brigade of the territorial defense forces of the armed forces of ukraine, therefore dnipropetrovsk region, a special greeting to you and wishes to gather actively at the station for the fighters of this particular brigade, although i perfectly understand that there are not only residents of this, not only residents of this beautiful region. to effectively destroy the enemy, military equipment must be systematically charged, this is not always possible due to the difficult conditions at the front , battery stations are designed specifically for military needs, they replace generators and provide soldiers with energy even in the field, let's close this collection, we have already collected more than uah 3,000,

it is still necessary and we will do it with you, especially now that it is winter, we understand how low the temperatures are, how difficult the situation is, and this thing, these stations are very necessary for the soldiers, please join us, we will start a conversation with pyotr obukhov, deputy of the odesa city council council, a lot of news, and there is also good news from odeschi, actually, i mean bad news, it's shelling. bad weather, mr. peter, i congratulate you, good evening , let's start with the consequences, well, first about the security situation, i'll ask, maybe i didn't read everything, i don't know everything, how the day passed in odessa, on sometimes, precisely with regard to enemy shelling, shaheda, rockets, something like that, please, well, we only had a hurricane, and it was not, not a weapon, a hurricane, a real hurricane, very high waves, broke the embankments, but such in fact, let it will be like this, and then the shahedas and rockets, then let's look a little at the consequences of this bad weather that raged in odesa, it

raged in general in the southern region, and in the coastal strip and not only in the coastal strip, in terms of victims, in terms of destruction, what can you say? unfortunately, there are several dead bezkhachens who froze, three such people, and our tower collapsed, the pipe was very large, in the largest boiler house. which supplies 120,000 people with heat, it was turned off, and this 80-meter pipe collapsed, but the boiler house was started, it will work, there is a part of this pipe left and specialists say that it can work like that, but this is the biggest man-made disaster in odesa , probably there in the last 10 years, well, that is , nothing else that could affect the work on the supply of electricity, heat, water, nothing else was damaged, understand, yes? well, about 300 trees fell , almost all public transport,

electric, did not work, because there were 80 broken lines, they are still being repaired, there are still fallen trees in the city, they are being cleaned little by little by the utility workers. well, i will ask one more thing, we saw that in the occupied territories of ukraine, which are now under the control of the russian federation, in russian and in the russian regions, what a disaster this storm created, and ships were thrown into the sea, and anchors were blown up, and one water one. ... the ships fought in the port of odesa, maybe there the port of yelichivsk, were there ships now too, is there any damage to the port infrastructure, or the ships themselves? well, if there is, no one reports about it, it is such hidden information, but i think that there were not many ships, even when the weather was normal, i saw somewhere around five or six ships leaving and entering , that is, everything continues to work, and now i want to ask you, what are you talking about. became the people 's deputy of ukraine, odesa resident oleksiy honcharenko , about what the odesa city council had decided

to allocate uah 20,000 every month to those mobilized, who are odesa residents, as far as i understand, this applies precisely to those who have already been mobilized and who will be mobilized, tell me more about it, i will read it later, oleksiy posted in a telegram rusna's reaction to such an initiative of the city council , it is very symptomatic and shows how it is really possible to improve the situation with the mobilization and motivation of people, and that rusnia reacts very negatively to this, they like beatings, clashes with the tsk, there, scandals and various things that demotivate people, that what motivates they don't like people, then whether there is such a thing or not, please, well, look, here we know that many other city councils support their seats, those who went to the military forces of ukraine, for example, there in lutsk they issue 500 uah, ivan frankovsky 25,000, in rivne 10, in poltava 10, in ternopil.

in kyiv, 5,000, and oleksiy proposed, and our faction managed to ensure that the city council will allocate uah 2,000 to those mobilized in odessa, but unfortunately, only those who will be mobilized after the adoption of this decision, we beat because it was from february last year, but we are told that it is illegal, well, we will still study the legality and try to equip it in the next sessions, and for now, all mobilized odessans, those who have odessa registration, will be able to... come to the service center of the odessans, tsnapu and receive 2000 hryvnias. anyway, this is a very good idea, in fact, the russians reacted like this, putin will destroy this city with nuclear weapons, we don’t need such an odessa, so it’s clear what can contribute to the mobilization process now and what can weaken rusnia, as you like troubles in ukraine, i will ask one more thing, the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelenskyi, visited odeschyna, if possible, about the results of his visit, what was the main thing they talked about, that he visited, well, there is

a press service report that they discussed the work of the grain corridor and air defense for odesa, this is very important, and we hope that we will get a high-quality system that will protect us, because there are still arrivals, but apparently no one is telling us the details now, and i will also ask what is the fate of pushkin in odesa, it is in the center if not i'm wrong, he was standing on primorye boulevard, well, maybe i'm wrong, i don't think so, you are somewhere around there too, i know why you, you think you're wrong, because we have three of them, yeah, well, one for sure there is one on primorsky boulevard, yes, there is one on primorsky boulevard, it is the oldest , it is 134 years old, and it was put in charge of the donats of the odessans of that time, and that is why it is such a difficult issue, and the odessans react very rashly, even those who were in favor of demolishing the monument to catherine, they react negatively, some of them react negatively to

monument to pushkin, because it is still a part of the history of odessa, and someone is for... and that's why i believe that it would be correct to hold an online vote here and determine the fate. also, we have another monument to pushkin near the pushkin museum, which is 24 years old, it is such a novelty, and well, there are already too many pushkins, it can be moved, for example, inside the building of the museum, and there is also a shadow of pushkin, it's simple such a shadow is cast on the cobblestones, it has no artistic value, in general, i will not be sorry if it is not... becomes her 10 years in total, well, a shadow, yes, but here you can say the words of gogol, who said, uh , he wrote about his shadow already there, at the end of his life, but it was still possible to have a shadow of gogol, but in any case, i think that the process of russification will continue, and what has some cultural value, well, there are museums, again it is up to the community of odessa to decide, i will not even bother with my proposals here, well, thank you,

in fact, everything i wanted to ask was asked by petro obukhov, deputy of odessa of the city council was in touch with us. about the consequences of bad weather in odessa in odesa and also about the president of ukraine volodymyr zelensky visited odesa, there is much to talk about, in fact, here you know what is important, that this was a meeting of foreign ministers of nato member countries, it took place, the head of nato, jen stoltenberg, was present, and also the minister of foreign affairs in britain spoke about why ukraine should be in nato, he says that it is a country that actually solved the issue of the grain corridor on its own. when we discuss this topic today, because smart people and knowledgeable people, they understand the role of ukraine and its efforts in the fight against the enemy, therefore, of course, with both hands to support us, and someone with both hands to harm us in our progress towards a society where law and order reign, we

will now talk about high-profile criminal cases, some of which for some reason fall apart, while others are closed. and we do not fully understand the reasons for that, but mr. gennadiy dubov will explain to us, a political scientist, candidate of legal sciences , mr. gennadiy, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, i will not pretend to be too intelligent, so i will briefly ask questions, you will to explain in more detail, i want us to start with kolomoisky's case, because this is a case that was in the focus of attention not only in ukraine, but also outside of ukraine, in ukraine, why, because they said, finally they started to fight the oligarch, especially with the oligarch, who was talked about for a long time, here he is behind bars, but today we... understand that the cases against kolomoisky may be closed, also those people against whom accusations were made of his involvement may be removed and regarding property, there may also be the question is that this property will not be fined, yes, and you don’t understand here, but why is this happening, what is the lozovo amendment , please, well, the lozovo amendment is a limitation of the terms of criminal proceedings in

those proceedings where there is suspicion, i.e. after someone in the proceedings has been notified of suspicion , roughly speaking, within a year they have to complete the investigation and submit the relevant case to the court, well, there is the question of continuation, who continues, but well, the logic for our viewers is approximately such that it is limited, conditionally speaking, to a certain reasonable period, if a person has already received suspicion, it means that the process of criminal prosecution has begun, it should not last indefinitely, and in connection with this , the people's deputies at a certain time made changes to the criminal procedure code and limited such a plan to pre-trial investigations, i.e. established a limit for the extension and those proceedings, relatively speaking, where there are 10 people involved, for example , someone has been declared a suspect, that's it, this period has begun its course, and then, if with the end of this year , there are other suspicions as well, so whether otherwise, the case must either go to court, or it

must be closed, if it is brought to court outside the time limit, then the court, having already heard it on its merits, closes it because it was omitted. deadlines, that is, such a procedural mechanism, it actually has advantages to a certain extent, because , well, imagine, in certain proceedings, and as a rule, we are talking about years, that is, some are investigated for decades, this creates, well , certain risks of uncertainty there and such a plan things, that's why the term must be certain, why was it relative to kolomoiskyi omitted, here, apparently, certain organizational conclusions should be made by those who supervise the pre-trial investigation, here we are talking about prosecutors, because if we are talking about the type, either we do not trust the law that comes out, or we are already beginning to distrust the higher anti-corruption courts, including to the higher anti-corruption appeals court, which makes such decisions, but again, we have to understand that even against murderous maniacs, the law must be followed, not to mention oligarchs and everyone else, so if there is no big betrayal here

no, why, because those who want to see kolymoyskyi behind bars, he will have such an opportunity for a very long time, because there are at least two more proceedings against ihor valerivych, where he has been selected as a preventive measure, taken into custody, the proceedings are fresh, there corrections of lazovoy, well, at least until they are shot accurately, and he will continue to be a participant in the crimes of the process and criminal prosecution, but there is a huge property there, there are yachts, cars, apartments, premises, businesses, warehouses of any kind, a lot of all kinds of property that will not be seized now , as far as i i understand, well, related to this proceeding, which is now running out of statute of limitations, i think that there and in other proceedings as well, at least the question of arrest can be raised, there is no problem here, because all around he is accused in figures where nine zeros at least. in the hryvnia, this is a reason to impose appropriate restrictions on property, and so on , so the fact that everything will get up and run somewhere, and the ukrainian state will not be able

to get there, then probably not, because kolomoiskyi is limited today in disposal of his property, he cannot actually personally participate in anything , and what really belongs to him, if it is in some strange way illegally sold, it can then theoretically be returned to his ownership in a suspended state and then theoretically again with the condition that, if he gets a guilty verdict, it can be confiscated , so actually, like we lost something, that kolomoisky factories will get up and run somewhere, getting rid of the arrest, then probably we can't have a reason to say that, it's a certain procedural point, and it is still more difficult to perceive this reality, to say that kolomoisky will be released tomorrow , he will be exonerated, he bought everyone, there is no reason for today, well, well, because you know, about this case. .. they said that before, well, this is a case conducted by the national anti-corruption bureau of ukraine, even before it all started, that it would all end like this, well, but you say that there will be other proceedings, there are there are other

suspicions, and interestingly, there is one more the card, as they say, the table is laid, ihor kolomoisky, asked his agent, did he tell his lawyer, not his agent, to appeal to the european court of human rights, given the fact that his rights are being violated in ukraine, what is this may have consequences, i understand that there is a european court of human rights, the european court of human rights may consider this for years, but the very fact of what he submits, what does this indicate? well, it shows that he uses all possible means, because the european union is greatly overestimated in our country, let's remember that tymoshenko was there at one time, when planted, there was even a decision of the european court of justice, it happened very, very quickly, what did it affect, we remember that it is not for nothing, theoretically this can also happen in our country. because the ecj, making a decision, can award several thousand euros there, and then it must draw the attention of the ukrainian court to what it considers to be a violation of the convention, and the ukrainian court

must then review the issue and possibly eliminate the violation of the convention, or perhaps say that it is not , we believe that everything is normal here, in accordance with the legislation, that is why the ecj in our country does not condemn anyone, does not imprison anyone, does not issues, it is a subsidiary mechanism of international law, which can state that the state... ukraine improperly fulfills its obligations regarding the fulfillment of the requirements of the convention on the protection of the rights to fundamental freedoms. the ecj does not and cannot make decisions on the merits, it must be remembered, the main one is still the national court, only it is the bearer of power in the judicial power in the state of ukraine and, accordingly, can make a decision that will not acquire the status of final. well, if there are two cases, there is also allegedly no betrayal, but people, focusing on others things are starting to scratch your head, shall we say. about labazyuk, who, the deputy, who offered a kickback, let's say, for allocating funds to him, well, that he was in his

company and were contractors, there we were talking about a billion hryvnias, he offered from 3x to 5%, it's somewhere around 450 million hryvnias, he was offered the same bail of 40 million, he paid it on the same day, well, on that day, when he was arrested and immediately got out, and the same story with odarchenko, he offered $50,000 to mustafinay or his , well, state for these in bitcoins also there for certain favors, but these people quickly left again, and here the question arises of a more moral aspect, probably than a legal one, in times of war to people who openly offer bribes and try to earn money during the war from public funds, should it be possible to limit the period of stay behind bars to a certain period and without the right to make bail, because they understood that these people, well, they have 40 , 50 million there, 10 million there, that is, well, in principle , it is clear, no, well, if we want to say goodbye to our constitution and the european ones perspectives, we can

do so, but i think we don't want to say goodbye to all this... bright and wonderful, because a preventive measure, this detention, it is not a punishment, it is only a means of ensuring procedural obligations , no more, that is, our current criminal and procedural code , regardless of the fact that there is a state of war, provides that the guard should be chosen in exceptional cases, in exceptional cases, only if everything else, well, it cannot be chosen at all, from the point of view of ensuring conscientious procedural attitude of the suspect to then it is worth it, but if we have non-violent crimes, there the law necessarily stipulates the amount of bail, necessarily, and moreover, the law stipulates the maximum amount of bail there in subsistence minimums, for today it is essentially up to a million hryvnias, up to uah 1 million here it is even doubtful that the courts very often use the norm, which is for an exception, which actually exists in our code of criminal procedure, in our country

the exception has become the general rule. we have pledges of tens of millions of hryvnias, which is somewhat dubious from a legal point of view, but they are it must be noted, because the law requires it, that is, in the rush of a decisive fight against those who are harming the ukrainian state today, we do not want to destroy our legal system and the constitution, so we must look at it through this prism, because at the price of actually, our entire legal system will be worth it to certain deputies and corrupt officials, wouldn't i? i actually think that our constitution is of greater value to the ukrainian state than the fact that a people's deputy spends a few months in custody, this should be perceived through approximately the following the lens thank you very much for your participation, thank you for your expert comments, you explained these important topics to us, gennadiy dubov, political scientist, candidate of legal sciences, was in touch with us, the kolomoiskyi case, the labazyuk case, the udarchenko case, one, well, one

a businessman, two people's deputies, and there's also pavlo lebid, we haven't had time to talk about pavlo lebid, it's interesting that pavlo was called pasha mercedes, he came to the meeting of the pasha court today in a mercedes, well, that's how they say, eh, everything must be appropriate, both words and actions, well, words and the actions coincide with oleksandr, serhiy zgurets, director of the defense agency, host of the military summaries of the day column, and now we will talk, serhii, i congratulate, i congratulate our viewers, yesterday the supreme commander-in-chief's bid was held and volodymyrskyi said the following phrase, said that concrete and mines in ukraine is enough. he hints, hints at the fact that we will now mine and concrete the fortifications, what are we preparing for this winter and what is the main task in these fortification actions and in the actions of mining the territory, please. well actually indeed, when we talk about yesterday's stake of the supreme holkhomach, the issue of fortification was raised for the first time at the stake level , i think that this is finally a positive trend, because we saw the statements of some of ours and

military experts that in which areas, in some fortification areas are lacking, that is, these were the conclusions, in particular, yuri butusova there regarding the situation around avdiyivka, perhaps this influenced the decision of the bet, although of course this is a certain exaggeration, but the issue of fortification is extremely important, considering the fact that we are entering the winter, we are going into defensive battles, into a defense strategy, i think that we simply cannot do without fortification here, and this is a positive step on the part of the military and political leadership of the state, and in the future we will... we will to talk in our program about what is happening on the front line, in detail and in general, in greater detail, is precisely about the situation around kupyansk, and about whether the ministry of defense began to work more dynamically after the change of leadership in order to purchase clothes and bulletproof vests from domestic manufacturers, about it's in a moment.

so, if we talk about the front line, then on the map it looks completely static, in fact , it is very dynamic and active in each specific area, this applies to the south, and the line of purchase of kremin, and bakhmut and avdiivka and maryanka, by the way, in the past day there were 87 combat clashes, and this is actually the peak indicator of combat activity for the whole month, it can be assumed that after the completion of such a main base of offensive operations of ukrainian troops in zaporizhzhia, now the russians are trying to seize the initiative and despite all the colossal losses, by the way, 1,140 russian occupiers were destroyed yesterday and continue to put pressure on our defense in various areas, it is now important for us to keep this hint, the pressure on all areas of the front, and then i will dwell in more detail on the situation around kupinsk, we have later with
