economy during the war: the stressful state in which our country has been living for 10 years, after a full-scale invasion, the situation worsened many times. however, the enemy did not manage to break us. our courageous defenders hold the front, and business. forms a reliable rear. in the second year of the full-scale war , metallurgical production is gradually being restored. the banking sector turned positive. already this year, thanks to the help of our partners , new models of ukrainian armored vehicles are appearing. after all, among minefields and under enemy fire, we collected a record harvest. espresso analyzes the business results of the year. uah 135 million is the amount of taxes paid by the ids ukraine company for 10 months

of this year. despite all the challenges of wartime, the company not only continues to work and provide jobs, but also actively develops, launches new products, increases state support with taxes and provides ukrainians with great social assistance - says the head of the ukrainian board of directors of ids ukraine in sevut bilas. compared to last year, this year was more successful for business, because, well, there are several reasons we have already adapted to those conditions, we have gained a better understanding of the situation, we have worked out certain apparent work rules, er, and this year we increased sales by 10%. increased sales enable her company to do more to help, donate to the armed forces, we will continue to be the largest taxpayer in our industry. the social component has become the most important business priority, the company has established cooperation with... more than two hundred charitable foundations. thanks to this interaction, it helps the military, hospitals and civilian ukrainians,

who suffered from russian aggression. in particular, with the assistance of the office of the president of ukraine and the military administrations, the kherson region received more than 5 million liters of drinking water for the total amount of uah 35 million after the hydroelectric power plant was blown up. since the beginning of the full -scale water invasion, we have given more than 200 million water in total. and the total amount of all donations is about 300. while providing social support to others, the company continues to worry about its employees, who are currently serving in the ranks of the armed forces of ukraine. we support our colleagues who are in the armed forces, we fully support them equip despite the difference in the law, so we left them the average salary. for more than 25 years , the company has been producing bottled water, known under the trademarks morshinska and myrhorodska, but it does not stand still and has been investing resources in development for the past 5 years. the amount of capital investments, in particular in production, reached 2 billion 300 million uah.

our marathon. lesya vakulyuk, andriy saichuk, we work in this studio for you the following two hours, i want to remind you that we have a collection going on, we are collecting for battery stations for our military, which are on the front lines for them, these are generators that work on solar panels, with the help of these battery stations, they can recharge their military equipment , and only i praised you today, they say, yesterday we collected so quickly so... a lot of money, 68 00 for yesterday, for the whole day there was, and today, for today, dear friends, in comparison just for you, plus 11 thousand for 3 o'clock in the morning, it's a bit small, we need somewhere collect about 24-25 thousand per day, so that this week we have already closed this collection, if we moved at such a pace as it was on monday and tuesday, then the collection would have closed very quickly, we actually need to collect not so much already and a lot, some 110

thousand hryvnias, 110 00 hryvnias out of 1 million. 220 thousand needed, that is, the largest part of the amount has already been collected, so please contribute with your donations, it is not important that these are some huge amounts, it is important that there are a lot of us, even a few hryvnias, 10 hryvnias, but if there are many of us, if each of you transfers this money, then we will collect this huge amount and finally close this collection, we don't need only uah 120, 110,000 for this, and now mykhailo pretul. a military expert, a reserve colonel of the sbu, an expert on military counterintelligence, joins our air, mr. mykhailo, welcome, oh, sorry, good morning, eh, another military expert with a tail, and yes, this is an expert who provides me with the necessary information , did this expert watch valery zaluzhny's briefing yesterday, what were his impressions,

well, the mercenary says what's actually happening right now on the front, and he's talking about the needs of our military, that is, these are real needs, and uh, let's put it this way, not everyone can tell the truth, but in this case, he's telling the truth, what to comment here, and one of, for example, the points that i paid attention to during zaluzhny's press conference, is that zaluzhny said that he warned, in fact, if i understood correctly... him the answer is succinct, that he warned that the counteroffensive may fail for another six months so, but no one wanted to hear it at the time, but he added that as time has shown, i was absolutely right, you know, it often happens that people in power give orders forward without

understanding how it will actually work out, er, once i talked with one people's deputy, a very patriotic people's deputy, the leader of very patriotic forces, and he said: i traveled to er villages, i looked at the destroyed sukrovi factories, and i saw what our votes lead to, i say, it was necessary to go before that, not after well, but it's just a tactic. the actions of our officials in many cases, do not listen to professionals, and we would have attracted this since the soviet union, when its main feature, or feature of officials was theirs, was their unprofessionalism in many cases, the ability to simply manage, but the war does not

forgive this, war doesn't forgive such things, because... everything is concrete here, absolutely concrete, and in this case, i would always take credit for the fact that this is a professional who, uh, no, gives orders ahead without thinking everything through come on, how it will be in reality, and you and i don't really know who and what said and who forced her to go on the attack there, not having the necessary. everything is necessary, but history will sort everything out, unfortunately, lives cannot be returned, this is a very sensitive topic, i just do not want to say harsh words to many, i understand, we all keep our emotions to ourselves, i wanted to say that one way or another the briefing was dedicated to the issue of mobilization, i

understand that this is why zaluzhny had such an opportunity to speak for the first time in almost two years of war before... a ukrainian audience, and regarding mobilization, there was also such a moment, we heard at the press conference of the previous president zelensky that the military allegedly demanded 500,000 to mobilize, while zaluzhny denied that such numbers were called, we can even listen to this moment from the briefing, in no way i did not say the number 500 or 400, i am talking about the general need. uh, and i already asked one of the girls, i already said that this need, of course, is divided into certain periods, of course, that is, someone will be mobilized in january, someone even in december. that we are not we are talking about the fact that we now need all this need in order to give clothes and shoes and weapons, no, this is not true at all.

that is, but on the other hand, we talked about it yesterday with mr. penzen, an economist, that in total 500,000 is a huge number of people who, if you remove them from the economy, because in fact, according to his estimates , we now have ... about 6 million only taxpayers, at whose expense the army is basically supported, since our budget is military, it can only come from taxes ukrainian enterprises and manufacturers, that is , there is such a difficult situation here, what do you actually think about the mobilization processes, which will definitely become the number one topic for the coming months, we are talking about mobilization. of the whole country, it is surprising that in the second , towards the end of the second year of the war, not everything has been mobilized, industry and everything that can be mobilized for the needs, defense and the

needs of the army, however, here we see a moment when the authorities have to make an unpopular decision, let's say so, rely on those who are still hanging out at discos, in their opinion. a very important opinion, but, this decision will have to be made, and if we look at the front and the reality, then if 430-440 thousand groups are fighting on the russian side, then of course there should be no less on the ukrainian side, and maybe more, and this group has, our armed forces of ukraine should be both bigger and better. equipped to date, of course, that is what the ukrainian economy should do, then those people who remained behind,

well, again, a very good example, this is the example of israel, when in such cases, when there is a war, everything is subordinated to the management of the rear, the armed forces, or the israel defense forces , there everything, everything is subordinated to one single goal, to win in ... this war, the war tests the strength of many things, including the normative framework that it adopted to the extent to which the economy will function in the conditions of the laws that were adopted earlier, in the conditions of the budget drawings that were adopted earlier, and which sectors of the economy were financed, if we are talking about the tax base, for example, in 6 million axes. who pay taxes, the population of ukraine is five times larger, that is, the question is to expand the tax base, but not at the expense

of increasing taxes, on the contrary, at the expense of them, reducing their administration, at the expense of giving more freedom to people , which could work, and so on, and so on, and there are many, many such moments in the country, that is, 500 thousand is not critical. mass for the country, but it is a critical mass for the military, which, which has to go forward and will be very well equipped, very well equipped, much better than russians, because every life is dear to us, and here is the complex of these things, that is, the harmony between the desires of officials who do not understand what they are doing, on the one hand, and on the other hand , real ones, which, well... is the criterion of truth , which is taking place at the front , this is the conflict, it is brewing today , and the officials themselves, who are not in the know, have to give in here, that is, we need to simplify this

situation, just listen to what the speaker says, but do not translate to him responsibility for unpopular action on 500 thousand mobilized, just listen to what the military says, because the military is now the criterion. truth and a criterion that will enable the survival of our state and the survival of our people. it is about the survival of our people , they want to destroy us, and there is no room for compromise, there is no room for compromise, neither with the opinion of officials, nor with the opinion of those who still hang out there at parties to this day and try to listen to russian pop, even such, by the way. about russian pop and all those parties that take place during the war, it just happens not only in us, not only in us, it turns out just in russia, it is such a powerful event that

maybe we should... also pay attention to at least understand what is happening in russia in general, sometimes it seems to us , that russia is generally insensitive to losses in the war, but perhaps this is a big exaggeration, because their losses are more than ours, the country wants more, and huge losses, and their standard of living has fallen very much, comparatively, because our standard of living has not fallen much, so what i want to say is that in russia , what is even called a national psychosis in the press, it happened... this is around the so-called naked party or semi-naked or half-naked party that took place in some fashionable night club in moscow , the entrance there cost 1 million rubles only for the open part of this party, and accordingly, and there were all kinds of different super super stars, throw photos so that people are super superstars, for example, kir korov, from those we identify, there is loli. and so

on and the like, and in a word it's simple after that, a real hysteria began, about some kind of video, and now the deputies of the state duma are speaking, all of them are their analogues of the anti-corruption bureau, the head is such an intellectual in quotation marks, such a mouthful, then all those famous people, in a word , kirkorov and so on the organizer of this party, it was called, it's called , almost snake and they were all supposed to come half-naked, which they... actually did, for which they paid a million rubles, so, for the entrance, yes, a million rubles is there are 100 thousand about dollars, it’s so skewed for ukrainians, i understand, and it’s just hysteria now in russia, i read that kirkorov is being cut from all new year’s programs, but this is just holy for a russian, look at this new year’s lights, that’s how everyone cancels the milyavska , and everyone at this party, they're all recording

now. these appeals to the camera are penitent, that we understand that our boys are dying in the trenches, now they are defending russia at the front, and we have done very badly, but this moment itself, it is a condemnation of the party while it continues, and all the time, but everyone says this narrative suddenly that so many of our guys are dying now at the front, but no, and i suddenly realized that in russia it is already starting to feel a little... by the way, not without this party before, husband siman yanyan also recorded such a video, if we can watch it, he really says such slightly strange things, that he has such a message that they can celebrate, that it is not forbidden to celebrate in their country, no, no, that their military is fighting for , so that they could celebrate the new hour, so supposedly ukrainians they wanted

to take this new year from the russian muscovites and make them carol until... death, let's see, remember all those heroes who did not live to see this new year on the front lines, because they defended our right to meet him, even for a second , two well, mr. mykhailo, what is happening? well, putin created such a rather warm swamp in moscow in order to ensure the permanence of his power, and there are such comfortable, sufficient conditions, and here it suddenly turns out that these comfortable conditions in moscow, they relaxed pop so much that it has already, well, as they say there, hit the shores, now. is this some kind of criticism for

all the other russians who can't afford to pay $10,000 to get into this party? you know, you look at all this and think, but sometimes nebudanov organized this party through his agent suddenly in order to digest the russian society among themselves, well, it turned out quite loudly, you know, it is so similar to... budanov's year it is quite such a possible thing to it was inspired by ukrainian military intelligence in order to mix up russian elites and russian pop. well , if it is so, then we can say that it was a successful situation, a rather good scandal turned out, and it showed such things that are actually happening, but for russia, these losses are for moscow, they are not felt, because moscow does not

feel them. of what is happening throughout the territory of russia.
