one pickup for 250 00 hryvnias, we already have 2020 hryvnias in our account thanks to you, our viewers, and every hryvnia is important, your donation is a contribution to victory, you can see all the details on the screen, i wanted to buy an exit permit, my husband planned leave for romania through the diakivtsi checkpoint. there were no legal grounds for crossing the border, so i decided to... the state border service reported. the civil servant refused the offer and handed over the violator to the national police. a military psychologist from lviv on the border of sumy oblast. retired major volodymyr bely has dedicated his life to military affairs, which is more than 25 years of service. therefore, when a full-scale war came to ukraine, i could not stand aside. service for... logo began

way back in 1994, when he became a cadet at a military institution of higher education. he faced real war in 2014, when he participated in the anti-terrorist operation as part of the 24th separate mechanized brigade. he retired in 2020 and joined the ranks again two years later armed forces of ukraine. although i was a military pensioner, i remained a military man. and this is my duty. as they say, no one revoked the military oath, and secondly, these are my personal convictions that the enemy cannot be allowed to invade our land. the 33rd rifle battalion was formed in lviv, and now performs tasks in the sumy region, konotop district, as well as in the city of putivl. the situation at the border is tense, as it is a daily... danger and work

of enemy drgs. volodymyr's main task in such conditions is educational and mental work staff support. especially with his help. social issues are resolved, providing support and communicating with military families. such support and help is extremely important, because the war lasts a long time, and the distance and separation from relatives exhausts people. the most important thing for everyone, it is a clear matter that this is a family, maintaining a stable connection with them, a soldier is always a clear matter that he pulls him home. here, but on the other hand, they too, patriots of their native land, they. why did they go, why did they go, what are they here for they do, and one way or another they somehow connect these conditions, well, in these conditions they connect their lives with the fact that the man himself has a son who is waiting

for him at home, so he knows about the pain of separation firsthand. volodymyr admits that, as a psychologist , he passes through everyone's stories and experiences and emphasizes that the real panacea for... his wives is to always tell them to be husbands, wives love men very much, children, to constantly raise the mood, let's say, to love, that's how they knock on their dad, it has a great effect, they promise to take care of it about the soldier's festive mood.

i hope that our western partners will help our army, i believe, i hope that there will still be an advance and the liberation of our territories, somehow it must still happen, we did not start this war, that is the truth, and god is with us and the ukrainian people, and he will certainly help him, patience to the ukrainian people. and what else did i forget to say, this is necessary for them, certainly faith, it will be mandatory. we persevered, so we will win. during this year, ukraine quickly created and

armed mobile fire groups. warriors taught to hit air targets. commander of the united forces of the armed forces of ukraine, serhiy naev, summed up the year. fortifications were built on the border, dozens of kilometers of minefields and mined rubble were laid, and hundreds of thousands of meters of trenches and anti-tank ditches were dug. during the year , a number of exercises were conducted for the soldiers of the territorial defense forces of the national guard and the naval forces. the past year has been difficult, but we have persevered and continue to move forward. ukraine did not fall. and she fiercely defends her historical rights to full freedom existence in the civilized world. we will definitely liberate the occupied territories and end this terrible war victoriously. happy new year 2024. left without a home.

the police evacuated a couple of pensioners from the border of chernihiv oblast. their house in leonivka was destroyed by russian shelling during the attack. the owner of the house was at home, his wife went to the city on business, the village is located a kilometer from the russian border, so it constantly suffers from enemy shelling, so the couple decided to leave, the local authorities together with volunteers the couple found an apartment in a safe place, i was sitting at home, a friend came as a guest, so they were sitting on the couch, first it hit somewhere nearby, well, the explosion was so good , it shook the house so much that the windows trembled, howling says: wait, says, in half an hour, he says, we will be the second one, and that’s it, straight to us, that was the news at that time, you can read more on our website espresso tv,

also follow us on social networks and watch us on youtube, wait for the next news release already at 5 p.m., then my colleagues continue the broadcast. lesya vakulyuk and andriy saichuk. dear friends, we are coming back, lesya vakulyuk, andriy saichuk , we are working in this studio for another hour, well, at least there is such a plan, but what can i say, a ukrainian plans, and a muscovite destroys , this is how the saying should have sounded, because we understand, that these so-called neighbors of ours can arrange something for us, but we hope for the best, of course, now we will talk about the economy. ukrainian, russian, but first i would like to tell you, remind you, dear friends, if

we talk about the economy and money, i remind you that we have a collection going on, you and i collected 14 thousand with a hook today for this morning, it is on one card, because there are two cards mono and private, we are collecting for the 93rd separate mechanized brigade kholodny yar, this is the brigade that since the beginning of the russian-ukrainian war, which began back in... 14 years in the hottest spots, in the hottest directions, you can now see on your screens the qr code of privatbank and the qr code of monobank, you can see card numbers, also cards 4731 21 96 , 41 20, 6135, the number of one card and the number of another, 53.75, 41. 12 10 65 75 60.

dear friends, transfer your money , i think that today, tonight, today's expectations of the new year, is just the opportunity to thank our military for the fact that we can afford to meet this new year with our family or our friends, at least, we hope that he will be calm. well, it’s actually not a holiday for them, it’s today and tonight for them, work is both stressful and hard, painful, bloody, so let’s help them, they need drones, kamikaze, and we have to help them in this and we have to collect as much as 5 million hryvnias, and i am sure we will manage with your help. that's how my caroling was today, the sowing of malanka or vasyl, nakida. money please, and now mykhailo nepran , join our airwaves, the first

vice-president of the chamber of commerce and industry of ukraine, our sunday column, sunday new year's eve nepran, mr. mykhailo, we welcome you, tell us what you will sow, carol, what lesya , but you said it right, we have a good day, lesya, good day, andriy, good day, dear viewers, today we will have a non-traditional... nepran, and pre-new year's holiday, but unfortunately i have already passed the age when it would be possible to sow, in general, when i was at school, yes, a junior high school student , we sowed on the old new year, and that's 20 , they gave 20 kopecks, and if they gave one ruble, well, it was very cool, the godfather gave 10 rubles, well, it was fantastic in general, they came to school and at school then opened their eyes... bags, well, then the balls were made of cellophane, and sat, counted who

sowed how much in the morning, well, i think, if i now i will go to sow, then no, well, people will certainly open the door, well, they will definitely not give 20 kopecks, but will pour 50 g of vodka or wax and will say: where are you going, sit down, now we will talk about everything with you, what are you there he told us in the evening or during the day he told us on tv, you were telling bullshit there, here i am... i will tell you everything now as it is, well, that's why i think they will refrain from sowing today, i will spend this evening with my family, like all ukrainians , and in the results of the year that has passed, in hopes of a good year, what the future is, i know that andriy is preparing for me to ask some tricky question, i am morally ready for it, you know, i can get ahead of you, but now, at the end of the year, journalists always like to... ask questions, you know, commander-in-chief, is general syrskyi there, or is marchenko there, they said that this the year

was difficult, the next will be even more difficult, how do you predict how much more difficult the next year will be? well, as they say in such cases, scientists, let's start with the terminology, what is a hard year and what is an easy year, shall we? otdrij, what from your point of view, what is a difficult year, and what is an easy year? today's question will you not me? zadavat, and i will ask you, i will make such a journalistic provocation, i, mr. mykhailo, okay, i will stop with this provocation, my good acquaintance is a journalist before... already, who now works in one very large it corporation, in their pr - service, i wrote today about the fact that i have never felt such uncertainty in my life as now in the future, here and there, with such a little anxiety, i meet this year, which is approaching, and i have a certain

relief at the same time, but honestly i will tell you because i it was scary and wild to watch how what was at the front absolutely did not coincide with what the state officials declared in us, it increased, for me it was surrealism and horror, because i understood that when there is this the gap between reality and official reports, it means that this gap is filled by living people, who sometimes pay for it with their lives or health, in order to somehow cover this gap, i am very glad that society is getting out of... from the pink , from rose-colored glasses, and all this gives us clear optics, and i do not have any panic illusions, because it seems to me that europe certainly does not want to lose, america is certainly not interested in russia winning, that is , they will give us money, they will give us weapons, but we also have to scratch our heads a little and understand that

everything is just on top of us it won't be, well it won't be on the surface, well, i think everything will be fine, russia is not up to... not its goals, maybe we won't achieve the goals that zelensky talked about from the un podium recently, well but russia will not achieve much. it seems to me that our goal is a strong democratic country that will be in nato and in the eu, where people will speak ukrainian, carol and spend generously on their holidays and have muscovites somewhere far away. this is our victory. but you see, andrei, you basically expressed such a program, i would say m... a realistic vision of the world . every ukrainian government promised people such a beautiful piece of candy, soon, soon, soon, just around the corner, a new, beautiful, happy life will begin, let's give it a little more

and everything will be fine, remember your entire history of independent ukraine, we were fascinated by someone, so yeah. we hoped for a strong master kuchma, who would come and restore order, we rejoiced in the illusion of a good tsar, yushchenko, and remember 70%, so, well, zelensky is repeating the same fate that yushchenko had, yes, 70% of yushchenko's support was during the second vote, and then there was a terrible disappointment, why, because we built for ourselves, yushchenko was small. his charm too, yushchenko will come and change everything, was very great and it was so common that our faith in the good king, despite all the years, it existed in us, and we were always thinking, we were always hoping that someone would decide something, now we, in fact, with you,

are starting to form civil society, where the understanding comes that the responsibility of the state is responsible. everyone and it depends on you, what this state will be, if you sit quietly, traditionally in the ukrainian style, my house is from the country, i don’t know anything, then sooner or later they will come to your house not just knocking, but with they will go there automatically, you understand, but that’s why when we say that it was a difficult year, was it difficult, was there a simple year in the history of independent ukraine, well, there wasn’t, they were also difficult in their own way, that’s another matter, i think that they have changed now . these are economic, political, sociological, and moral landmarks. if earlier we thought about how much the salary should grow, how much the pension should be indexed, and what the standard of living should be, yes, if we take the pre-war period, with which we connected, we used to say that we should live better, now after the first war, it has already

become such a symbol of well-being for us, it is a quiet, peaceful evening. there is no anxiety , we are alive, thank god, nothing flew in, and we have a cozy house, nothing happened to it, we can buy what we need to buy, and even the preferences of ukrainians have changed during this time, you know, andriy olesya , i paid attention, i went to one of such large chain stores, the editors always warn me not to mention the name, no i did commercials for household appliances. i go in, and their shelves are half empty, i say, what happened, she says, the girl says to me, well, what's up, there are problems with china, we can no longer bring and display so that the whole store is filled with equipment. but nothing, what we have are the samples that you can order from us, and we will bring them to you in a month, yes, this is how the adaptation of retail chains

of household appliances to the conditions of war, to the conditions of change, and views and a well, you set the mood of the shopping ukrainians, because if you came before, chose and immediately bought, then now such networks do not risk bringing, because... it can simply be, well, dead capital, so when we talk about a bad good year, well, you know, i still count, and physicists with they agree with me, and many of the materialists, by the way, i am an atheist, i want to say right away, but the opinion is material, when all of us ukrainians will be in a panic mood, the pendulum has swung in us now from the fact that everything will be fine tomorrow, for two or three weeks, 2-3 weeks, or we fluctuated in the 22nd year, is coming now awareness that we will live in a different reality. i do not believe that it will be decades. but lesya correctly said about

the prospects of the ukrainian russian economy. the russian economy in its current state does not allow the russians to predict war for decades. they have money for 2-3 years. and whether this money will last for two or three years is also an open question. because there are, you know, there are statistics. beautiful macroeconomic indicators, but there is a harsh russian reality, the official inflation in russia is 5.7%, and not the official one, about which the same russians write in social networks, 35-50%. then the eggs disappear, the next thing will be problems with bread and pasta, and they themselves already admit that at any moment they can shoot inexplicably, that by and large the russians got what they were so nostalgic for. and what did they want so much? they received the soviet union of the late period of such, late brezhnev, early anandropov, when

shortages of simple goods begin, when there is hidden inflation, when outwardly everything looks good. another thing is that the ideology has changed. that's it he worries that the townspeople have been washed away, that most of them have unfortunately lost their human form, and he rejoices in the fact that people are killed in our country, children are killed, and that we... suffer, that's it, well, unfortunately , on such a mental, human level , what is called simply irreversible processes happened, i sometimes look, there is such a dmitriy bykov, he is such an interesting uncle, i agree with something, he said it beautifully, but i cannot repeat it, because there he said in a mother tongue, and what the russians are now, i really want to say, but i'm still a well-bred boy from the village, and what can't be thrown away? the whole point is just in that word, and he said, he said that, blame it, lesya, blame me, dear viewers, he said that somehow our

russians have messed up, that's how they screw up is incomprehensible, well, it's not i said , you can't throw words out of a song, dmitry bykov said that, well, he said it very aptly, you know, he is still a writer, he is a talented writer, an art critic, i enjoy listening to him, his analysis of works of art, i don't i agree on many political points , but he said it very well, well, they're like this, this is the other way around, it's not clear how it will be, well, i'll say it again, it's not me, i 'm very sorry, i'm trying to be polite, polite and skillful, but if you remove the words from the song, this is dmytro bykov, he is talented and wants to speak good russian, but he remains russian and he really has it. there is a lot of such things that he, he, he, for example, said that ukrainians should be grateful that there are good russians and they help ukrainians, but, you know,

lesya, i mean, they made us a war, and we should be grateful that they help us, and if it wasn't for you, we wouldn't have to thank you and help you, right? well, you know, lesya, what kind of good russians they have, the cherished dream of a good russian is to ride the tanks of the armed forces of ukraine to krasnaya ploshchad, and even better, to the kremlin. ambitious, easily sold, easily bought, and by and large, the same yavlynsky, who was once an economic luminary and a model of liberalism, well, thank god, sort of he had the sense not to be, well, what is it called, a technical technical competitor of putin, but the question is that each of them is in the fight, who... is the most correct, simply, well, blame me for, but this is rude folk such a word, they screwed up their situation, and now they look at us

and wait with impatience, well, when... the armed forces of ukraine will enter moscow, and we will follow them, and it is desirable that they stay there, because we captured the government and ruled democratic russia, but no, guys, you go through what we went through you will go through two maidans, you will go through a war , and then you will understand how difficult it is, how not easy it is, to exorcise the dragon from yourself, and so they, lesya, you are absolutely right, each of them, remember, a classic expression , the russian liberal ends with... in the end, even what happened in belgorod, yes, where the ukrainian rockets flew there, those good russians already began to condemn the ukrainians, they say, how come, yes, they are sobbing, but what russian rockets flew over the dnieper, and they boldly flew over kiev ksyusha sabchak somehow can't help it, somehow she's not redala, so she's... moderate and

you know, unfortunately, sometimes the same lviv, he rightly says that the russian intelligentsia, russian culture is responsible, you know, in russian culture, the heroes were not positive people, but there were, you remember, dostoevsky, the murderer, sunny the marmalade prostitute, yes, and also all kinds of people like gorkov at the bottom, but normal, adequate people, successful people, never were heroes, it was... a lumpenized literature that trained people before that, which corrupted before that, and that is why what happened in russia is not an accident, it is a century of development, and rightly so, they themselves sometimes, honest among them , admit that russian literature is still responsible for what happened in russia, tell me what it is, they will have olivier on the table this evening, they say that putin appealed to

batska lukashenko with a strategic, strategic request for help, lukashenko said that there are still eggs there and asked to share them with the russians , you're serious, you know , eggs go in olivier, you know, and in mayonnaise in the same way, they are going terribly, you know , you can imagine how paternal lukashenko, who always stood with an outstretched hand in front of putin, asked him for money, here he is puffed up, putin is asking him to give him eggs, as he emphasized it, what do they have. .. everything is fine, and there is even a chicken egg , yes, and there will be, there will be, of course, what will they be, at what price will they be, this is the second question, in fact, the russians fell into such an interesting trap, and on the one hand, there are no eggs , because the sanctions work, and on the other hand, they removed the customs duty and opened their internal market for those who are there azerbaijani turkish eggs, but the fact that they removed the duty and opened the market, they

have retroactive effect. they thereby ruin and close small and medium-sized enterprises , which, for example, were engaged in chicken and which solved the issue of raising chickens and eggs, that is, the issues are being resolved today and now, that is, by the new year there will be azerbaijani and turkish eggs, but what will not happen in the spring there will be russian eggs, because the market has been opened and domestic producers will not be able to withstand competition with azerbaijani eggs. this we will figure it out later, well, maybe they will give a subsidy , so you know, they started such an internal flywheel, i would say so, russia is not an ear of corn on clay feet, russia is an ear of corn on wooden legs, all wooden legs, you know, there is such a shashel , which gnaws and gnaws inside, and the wood, or a wooden choice, i remember how my grandmother had mud, yes, the door was kind of good, and then it turned out that it was broken, because

the shashel ate inside . this internal inflation, on the one hand they say, the dollar exchange rate is all bullshit, the population of russia does not have dollars, it doesn't matter to him, it's understandable that it doesn't matter , but russia is import-dependent in many respects, and it turns out that they bought eggs, eggs are expensive, which means they pay 12 million to the undertaker, the ruble begins to put pressure on the domestic market, and goods that it would be possible to buy on this domestic market, there is not enough, on... their central bank is forced to raise the interest rate, ours is lowered to 17%, the russians are raising it from 5-6% now to 16%, it is going to rise to 17-18, interest rates on domestic lending are rising , they undermine the purchasing power of russians, because they are russians got used to affordable and cheap money, so what is it that they had 80% of construction, it's a cheap mortgage at 3%.
