[000:00:00;00] well, we, with the media detector, once sued sharia five years ago, and we won this court, so i think that the media detector will win here too, i want to hope, because if it didn't win, it would be completely it's bad, bohdan, tell me more about ukrainer, you said that in 15 different countries, in 15 different languages, ukrainer distributes its content, ukrainer works. on the popularization of ukraine and the ukrainian language in the world not only after february 24, he worked until february 24, because i , for example, i don't know, dmitry komarov, he was probably not interested in the ukrainian issue before on february 24, he was more interested in the world, some kind of, i don't know, some cockroaches somewhere in thailand or something else, which, yes, we frankly have to say, what kind of content was there for

russian television in russian, and it was sold in russia , that is, until close to february 24, uh, and ukrainer, well, actually , we, we repositioned ourselves a little, we changed the focus only from stories about how beautiful and interesting ukraine is, and all kinds of success stories that we told earlier, now we are including in war reports, including various important ones we are advocating topics abroad, and well, in fact, somewhere we are also replacing the non-existent update, which, unfortunately, ukraine does not have, and, in addition to us, there is kiipendent, and several other simply private media that actually perform the role of foreign broadcasting, well, i think that

we... we can't exactly call the freedom channel a show, as it seems to be prescribed by the ministry of information. and the freddom tv channel, i’m just asking, continuing this topic, whether they asked you about your content, that ’s tv channels no, well no, well, they actually work for the internal audience, here that is here it's just eh well, i don't even know what level it is, some kind of fake, that is, that it's like a foreign language and that's why it's in russian , in fact, it's just another channel, a channel for an internal audience, listen, speaking again, speaking about it about system, at least we had, for example, the ukf, the ukrainian cultural fund, which was launched, which had some expertise, and accordingly there were some programs, quite a lot of money

was allocated for cultural projects, and there was more or less an understanding of how selection takes place, there were competitive programs, there were open, for example, there were members of these competition commissions, there was some competition, accordingly there were some criteria by which the winners were determined, and it gave a lot, we won, for example, funding for our documentary tape, many people lost somewhere, won somewhere, but in all there was a feeling that it was working and it was giving, and it was giving its sprouts, now at the ucf , in fact, i understand it to be paralyzed, collapsed and controlled, the same situation is happening, for example, around dovzhenko, the center, which, well, they don’t know from which side, is still there to he will be approached, but he can't be , you see, independent and not under the control of some such tv show production structure, the processes go on, actually, actually there are no criteria

of criteria, there is no kind of competitiveness. there is no expertise in the selection, that is, the problem for me is not that some travel blogger , even though there is a question of justice here, that is, someone was a marketer from the very beginning, worked for the russian market and made a very good living, and now they receive again all these orders and they are popular again now in the country that is at war with russia, and people who from the very beginning gave up a lot in order to work, because they had ukrainian principles, they are now again, well, if not, nothing to do with it, yes, but here is also the question, so it hurt ? i'm afraid that this, i will say very briefly, that this is actually such an unconscious incompetence on the part of the president's office, because both panlenskyi and mr. yermak, they worked in the film industry in the tv industry, and they may think that they understand very well , how this market works, but in fact they are destroying it,

we have, we have a press conference, just now on the air, thank you very much for the conversation , the founder of the ukraine project, a public activist writer, was with us, and now you will see the broadcast of the press conference of petro poroshenko, the leader of the european solidarity party, who today the border guards for some reason did not release him. on a foreign trip in connection with working visits to poland and the united states of america, stay with us students on the maidan, i went from there, 1 million gathered on the square on the maidan nezalezhnosti people in order to deliver several important messages, the first message being that ukraine will fight for demo'. democracy and freedom. the second message is that we will never accept the violence of the security forces, with which yanukovych's power is associated in our country, against youth and students,

unprovoked violence must be punished. it was at these hours that i was on bankovy street with a part of the people from the rally in order to stop the provocations. yanukovych, when aunts who tried to provoke and kill law enforcement officers were thrown out of the bank premises, to kill people, you remember how it ended, a huge number of journalists, public activists were injured by berkut's beastly cruelty, and from this began the revolution of dignity, which led to drastic changes in history. of our state, and now i want to emphasize that the next two weeks are decisive for the future fate of ukraine. i am not exaggerating, ukraine definitely has

unique chances that we should take advantage of , and ukraine itself has huge challenges and threats, which i want to briefly dwell on, the first position is on december 15, 14-15 the summit of the european council will take place, where the european commission's proposal to start negotiations on ukraine's accession to the eu should be approved. and for us, it is absolutely essential that all member states, their representatives, heads of state and government support the start of negotiations with ukraine, and for this we must use all the tools at our disposal. this is parliamentary diplomacy, this is diplomacy at the level of public activists, this is traditional diplomacy, this is unification and coordination

of efforts, i believe that all ukrainian political forces, all ukrainian public activists must show unity and convey this message in order not to take risks, the window of opportunity is very narrow, and we cannot let anyone, no, slovakia, hungary, or anyone, stop ukraine on our way to membership in the european union. equally important, there is a mission that is currently taking place in the united states, and in the united states it is very important that by the new year the congress of the united states, where...' republicans have a majority, using the bipartisan support of ukraine, adopted the decision on the allocation of funds for the purchase of weapons for ukraine, the allocation of funds for the purchase of ammunition for ukraine, the allocation

of funds for financial support of the budget deficit of ukraine, and the existence of our state actually depends on this. we are at the front every week and know what a projectile is. hunger, we know what it is, positions when the needs of the armed forces are not fully funded, from fpv, drones and mavics, to fortifications, from mining to armor positions, evacuation vehicles and, most importantly, electronic warfare equipment, and today i can emphasize that we are making this public for the first time, that this year the financing of our joint projects by the poroshenko and community affairs fund will exceed uah 4 billion from february 24

, 2022, of which almost uah 600 million will be financed it's a matter of communities, it's your donations, and in fact 3,400 million will be financed by the funds of the poroshenko foundation , and for us it is very fundamental, now we are investing in electronic warfare systems, purchasing hundreds, if not thousands of fpv drones. which we direct to areas where there is a sharp offensive, and now i am approaching that this was also connected with our business trips, er, of our team, of our parliamentary group, to poland, to the united states of america, where we have to solve extremely important tasks, in poland,

today we had meetings with the leadership of the seym , with the leadership, the head of the foreign affairs committee, the main committee of european integration, among the topics was the coordination of positions, partnership and support for ukraine's european integration aspirations, and a number of projects inside poland, starting from solving the problem of carriers, today we have concrete proposals with the polish side, and finally , joint production of weapons and ammunition on the territory of poland, where there are absolutely concrete proposals, we will not disclose them, but we are doing everything possible to improve the provision of our armed forces and make them more independent from the responsible factors, today we have now prepared letters in which we

apologize for the fact that due to the reckless behavior of the ukrainian authorities, these meetings were canceled, er, further, er, we were supposed to fly to of the united states of america, this is an invitation from the senate of the united states of america, here is an invitation from the congress of the united states of america, here is an invitation to a special panel dedicated to ukraine at the idu, this is the international democratic union, this is the most authoritative world political organization, the collective members of which are the european people's party, the republican party of the united states of america, the conservative party, great britain, canada, australia, the whole world, but a special panel where ukraine was brought out

there on my initiative, i am a speaker there, i am the only representative of ukraine who was supposed to speak there, and again , it is absolutely unacceptable, due to, this is exactly what infuriates me, the visit to the united states was screwed up, i want to emphasize, just very briefly , meeting with whom was planned, after, this is a program. the program consists of nine pages, a bilateral meeting with the leadership of the pentagon, the united states department of defense, the participation of the council of foreign relations, a bilateral meeting with national security advisers, current and former, opening of the forum, meeting with steve harper,

prime minister, former prime minister. of canada, meetings with the head of the conservative party of great britain bipartite richard holden, a meeting with the vice presidents of the european commission who came to the idu and invited this meeting, a meeting with the leadership of the bipartisan ukrainian caucus in the united states congress, meetings with the chairman of the intelligence committee of the house of representatives of the united states congress states congressman mike turner, you know, this is the intelligence committee, this is a republican who has a decisive influence now on the results of the vote that should take place, this year, and with participation in a public event and a bilateral meeting with the speaker of the house of representatives of the united states of america. mike johnson, he will be the speaker who will present

the ukrainian issues, formulate them , please explain to me who is responsible for the fact that all these meetings have been canceled, here is a separate program, iduyu. i want to emphasize that today at the kraków checkpoint, i arrived with in the hands of her order of the chairman of the verkhovna rada, where it was clearly stated that i am traveling from december 1 to december 8 to the united states of america and it was on the basis of this order that all the meetings were planned, i want to emphasize that i think the lawyers will say more about this, but i want separately

to emphasize that the order, in accordance with the law according to the regulations, the order of the chairman of the verkhovna rada cannot be canceled, it is an act of individual action, and after meetings have been concluded, planned and confirmed on the basis of this order, the order expires , and the second position, that on the basis of the law on the regulations, the order of the chairman of the verkhovna rada can only be annulled by a session of the parliament by a vote of the constitutional majority of the constitutional composition of the verkhovna rada , point further, what happened with this? how did it happen to us when mr. major, whose name is serhiy, came up and in the style of a railroad sailor said, look at the statute, we will not let you through, symbolically that this is happening

on december 1, symbolically that he does not care about unity, european integration, security, he performs criminal on the ... order of office representatives, just as the leadership of the parliament is forced to do these things. i can emphasize that it has nothing to do with democracy, with the european aspiration, because the key criteria that ukraine must meet are the copenhagen criteria, which should... the copenhagen criteria begin: democracy, rule of law, freedom words, human freedom, nothing to do with the rule of law or democracy,

there are no current processes, explain why this was needed an attack on unity, no one is capable, while the whole country lives united, because unity is a factor of our... victory, and we have one enemy, that is putin, some, i don't know what to call them, or it is russian moles, or are they useful idiots who sit in the authorities and in the office, screw up, attack ukraine and destroy, in english, this is called democratic resilience, the ability of ukraine. democratic method of self-defense, since february 22, we said that we will win putin's authoritarian regime, because we are free democratic country, and the ukrainian nation is motivated. we have today, i

emphasize, that these processes must be stopped immediately, nations must unite, around whom, or around what. around the armed forces of ukraine. this is the factor of our victory. and now i would like to ask, to say two words, the representatives who give legal interpretation, and i would ask both our international secretary and our respected mr. andriy and mr. mykhailo to express, mykola, their position regarding today's events that unfolded on. i would like to say that we are the main ones everyone knows our movement to europe is an obstacle, we have big problems with the implementation of the principle of the rule of law, and when such

multi-layered lawlessness is demonstrated once again, on many, many levels, and let's start from the most, from the lowest and simplest. here is an order issued by the head of the verkhovna rada on the business trip of people's deputy petro oleksiyovych poroshenko. the very fact that it is necessary for an elected representative of the electorate, a people's deputy, to go on a business trip, this has little to do with democracy, that's how we have it. a legacy of soviet times, that the head of the verkhovna rada is like this, he is like a boss for deputies, but okay, and here he issues such an order, it is dated november 26... it says that you will send poroshenko pyotr oleksiyovych to the united states of america , the city of washingtontech and for participation in the forum of the international democratic union is very important. legally, a point to take into account is that the corresponding business trip will not require

reimbursement of expenses, i.e., that the traveler is traveling at his own expense, i.e., well , they implemented it, regardless of this the soviet heritage, that this should not be the case, that according to the law, the rights of people's deputies to travel cannot be restricted, this is the law on the status of a people's deputy, but okay, we received such an order, and what is done next, after the business trip has already been organized, as meetings are scheduled, everything is done, another order appears, which is already signed by the first deputy chairman of the verkhovna rada kornienko, based on a letter from the same first deputy chairman of the verkhovna rada kornienko, all this is dated november 29, there is also a letter from the same november 29 the same kornienko... addressed to the apparatus of the verkhovna rada to prepare the draft of this business trip, and already with such, you know, clericalism, i think that every ukrainian

knows when an official with fishy eyes does some dirty work and openly violates the law , knowing and hoping that he would not be held responsible for it, they wrote not even to revoke the order of the expedition, but to consider the order revoked, whatever that means, but they think it may to them. will help somehow to avoid responsibility, here i would like to say that, first of all, it was already mentioned that the order of individual action cannot be canceled at all, it is already being implemented, it was issued and is already being implemented, there are corresponding positions of the constitutional court of ukraine on this, which say that if an act of individual action, cancel it it is impossible, secondly, there is a direct provision of the law, because the regulations of the verkhovna rada of ukraine are a law, and in accordance with article 70 - the eighth of this law, on the regulations of the verkhovna rada, orders of the chairman of the verkhovna rada can

be changed, canceled by a decision of the verkhovna rada council, accepted by the majority of the votes of people's deputies from the constitutional composition, that is, mr. korniginko, who from the motives, and we will also talk about the motives, because i believe that this whole story should be investigated in the order of criminal proceedings, because i personally believe that here there is a composition of criminal violations and more than one , i.e., for certain reasons, mr. kornienko made a clearly deliberate decision, clearly not legally, clearly illegally, knowing that the order is not canceled in accordance with the general principles of law, knowing that the norms the regulations of the verkhovna rada do not give the chairman of the verkhovna rada even the right to cancel his own orders, knowing about the court decisions, which are judicial practice, that the order is not canceled, nevertheless. he decides in this way to disrupt the departure of people's deputy petro oleksivych poroshenko on a business trip to the united states, which

he could have? i apologize, sharing completely righteous anger, igor, i want to say that here, do not be offended by me, there is a medical diagnosis, why, in this order it is written, the first deputy the chairman of the verkhovna rada wrote a letter of order to himself based on the letter of the first deputy to the first deputy and on the basis of this letter canceled the order, this is a wild precedent, in two years, when it is drawn up like this, the order was never canceled, imagine, he wrote a letter to himself and canceled it, second. a precedent, the chairman of the verkhovna rada issued an order, the deputy or head of the department, or

the head of the staff comes and signs, i wrote a letter to myself and cancel the order of the chairman of the verkhovna rada, this is what, this, this is the state, this everything, is it absolute vacanalia, lack of rule of law, and what is it called, it is called political persecution of the opposition, it is called: return to the times of yanukovych, there is one more thing that igor did not say, and i would like to draw your attention here there is a mandate from the leadership of the verkhovna rada, which they assigned to the acting chief of staff, a position, and why did they cancel it, an interesting position, due to organizational necessity, how do you like this wording, without any appearances, and attention, information according to the letter number such is the dsk. i asked, what is in that letter , you will be shocked, they say, it is a letter from

the special services, which we will confirm and will definitely give you.... in order for you to recognize, despite what it is, well, teskashny of the region, that it is very dangerous for the deputies, including poroshenko, to be abroad, it is a threat to his life, i can go to frank, but it is dangerous to go abroad, and they are crazy, he wrote a letter to himself on the base, hey, parliamentary actions are hindered. international, leader, parliamentary faction, parliamentary party, i emphasize once again that this is not only diplomacy in the states, not only diplomacy in poland, diplomacy in other countries, but these are contracts for the purchase of defense weapons, these are contracts for the purchase of components and negotiations in poland for obtaining transit licenses for military

cargo, which we carry from belgium, britain and others. for today. our soldiers were left without military equipment. and therefore it is absolutely correct, says mr. igor, that they will be responsible for this. it's an abuse of power, that excess of authority, this is in addition to the subject of a criminal investigation. and the most important thing, as one of the former presidents said. it was all already there. we are in may on the 20th. in 2022, in the same way, in the lviv region of krakow, i was not allowed to participate in the nato parliamentary assembly. then there was a huge scandal, it was a blow to the image of ukraine. everyone who could asked the ukrainian authorities questions. and they decided that

they are changing their position and releasing. we have appealed to the supreme court, and i would like to... say two words about it, one more i will still conclude that an action was planned here, that this information about this supposed cancellation of the order was somehow passed on to the border guards in advance, that is, an action was completed here, which was directed and led, rather than to harm ukraine as a state, to harm disruption of negotiations, to deterioration of prestige, and here we are talking about a criminal investigation of these actions, of a group of these people. regarding, there was indeed a very similar story, when it was also completely illegal to not allow crossing the state border, we challenged it in court, and on the explanation was that he was released the next day, the next day he was allowed, and therefore both the state border service and the courts of the first and second instance refused to actually

consider this lawlessness, considering that the fact that he left the next day after all , however, the supreme court, considering the cassation appeal, he said that it was a separate violation , for which it should, it should give, a legal assessment, and it should be considered already in accordance with the law, and returned back here to the lviv administrative court, where will be considered thank you, colleagues, we had quarrels, you understand that there was a scandal, a very big damage in the west, even. if there weren't all these scheduled meetings, even if there weren't all these arms contracts , the very fact that during the war, namely during the negotiation process, when very much attention is paid to how in ukraine has democratic, in particular parliamentary procedures, how it all happens, the very fact

of such a scandal, it is already causing great damage, i obviously agree with the fact that this soviet stylistics, but it must be understood that these are not remnants of what was in soviet times , it was a situation legally created recently, and the arbitrariness that took place on the border, which was a consequence of the arbitrariness that took place in the apparatus, in the leadership of the supreme council, it became possible primarily because there is a system that is illegal. and , contrary to the constitution of ukraine, provides for the procedure for issuing permits, in fact, this is a permit, when to receive some, some document
