in nazk, that the lithuanian company continues to pay taxes to the budget, the budget of refia, hires employees, and is not going to close down the business, well, these are the double standards of international entrepreneurs, they exist, and the lists of those who support the economy of the aggressor are recorded on the zk and replenishes well, we will continue to talk about hot news. this week the economic community debated about the national income strategy, what kind of document is it, is it really just the fulfillment of the demand of the main creditor of the international monetary fund, is it really a specific document that will completely change the revenue strategy of our budget in various ways, because the european community really says that it is enough to take what is necessary and earn it yourself,

we will talk about this with mykhailo nepron, the first vice-president of the chamber of commerce and industry of ukraine. he's on the phone. good evening. good evening. you had such a good story about the circle of funds. i think in one of the issues we need to discuss with you, because from time to time there are various conversations about that ukrposhta needs to be privatized, right? and let's say the bank should be privatized. then the question arises, if it was a private structure, they would drive like this and do it. in fact, this is a charity, these are social events , they are unprofitable, so we understand that the medicines that will be taken there are unprofitable, nothing will be earned from this money, moreover, its employees are risking their lives, so these are colleagues, somehow let's let's plan and talk about this topic, because journalists recently asked me whether we have too many state banks, state institutions, as it should be to react to this, of course there is a discussion here, but let's go back to the national strategy before... well, i urge anyone who doesn't have

the patience to read 147 pages, and there are such ones on the website of the ministry of finance, as one of your colleagues also told me , and there are pictures, i say, for those who want to look, there are also pictures, and there you can look at this strategy, it is more written, already clearer, more specific, well, let's get out of this, not that another strategy appeared. there is nothing wrong in principle, my dear a society that wants to develop, but sets benchmarks for itself, sets signposts for itself, in order to understand where it is going and what it should reach. there is another point , tell me, colleagues, let's think about how many strategies were adopted during the independence of ukraine, we, i asked myself a question, then i talked with my colleagues, i talked with experts, no one, and you mean only the finn. strategies, well, there were, let's say,

10-step strategies, 10 steps for meeting people, let's say, at one time there was such a program, program, i was a program, yes , mr. mykhailo, well, here i have a question, this one was adopted, how much was implemented, oh, yes, how much was adopted in terms of the strategy regarding the independence of ukraine, but we calculated, well , let’s say this, about thousands, not so, because there were all strategies to fight poverty. strategy for the development of territories and such strategies, each government has something, at best 10-15% of some strategies, i will not tell you how in 1994, when i worked in the ministry of economy, a colleague asked for a program, then at a meeting considered and the ministry of industrial policy introduced a state program, a ukrainian tractor, ukrainian combines, a ukrainian car, but 30 years have passed, in 24 years we have not heard anything about ukrainian

, about ukrainian, mr. mykhailo, but if we look at specific examples, why did this strategy cause the indignation of the economic community , what is wrong there in your opinion? what is wrong here? ah, come on, why doesn't she bother me? you rightly said in your opening statement that this strategy was carried out as one of the landmarks, as one of the beacons for receiving another tranche of the international monetary fund, that is, money will be given. oh, you said it right, when marchenko was asked the day before yesterday there was a meeting with the minister of finance, the head of the tax committee, well, he is a young guy, i hope that he will finish his work as a minister by the age of 30, although i doubt how quickly ministers change, this there was a beacon that ukraine had to fulfill in order to receive 1.3 billion, so she fulfilled it, she will receive money, which will be implemented.

well, to be honest, i seriously doubt that this is a strategy, so let's discuss what is and what is not yes, it can be criticized for a long time, and most likely it will be another strategy that ukraine made in order to get money from the international monetary fund, and it is unlikely to be successful. mr. mykhailo, but serhiy marchenko, the minister of finance, you mentioned him , said that the strategy will be implemented in stages, but the main thing is that it will work when, maybe, maybe i won’t say literally, when there will be trust of ukrainians, businesses in the tax system, in the customs system, in general there will be trust, well, it is trust. what everyone says about trust, but how in practice? you see, it was going there the question is not only about trust, there was the question of the tax authority first of all, because there was the question of taxation, and according to this strategy, the tax authority receives additional powers, and bank secrecy as such

loses its understanding and will have the tax opportunity to block accounts , to impose arrests, that is, quite a lot of repressive measures, and when the representatives of the business community of experts began to speak quite logically, he told me, well, you understand, it will come when we reorganize the tax office, when we conduct it, they will come there honest, decent people, when we reach such a level, well, the truth is that a logical question immediately arises, who will determine that the tax office has already reached the level when it can implement it, who will determine that it has achieved, mr. mykhailo, this reorganization, over 20 years in economic journalism and each government reorganizes fiscal bodies. tax, fiscal, fiscal, tax are called, restructuring, but who will determine that this is the effective model that should work in ukraine, what are the criteria, what are the criteria to determine what is tax has already become like central european, at least, well, we do not say for such

western europeans, at least like our neighbors, the czech republic, poland, yes, that is, and i say once again that there are good things here, this is also the reset of customs, this and creation. a single it structure, which should consolidate information about the business, should be included in taxes, so that tax officials do not see the structure specifically, do not have the opportunity to pick up the phone and say: let's solve it, so there are good things, but me in this situation, i i always say, what are you nervous about, colleagues, no will it implement, well, such strategies have already been adopted immeasurably, and while money is needed, the international monetary fund is promised everything, the money is received, and then they say the situation has changed, let's start negotiations, it will be the same here, and very briefly, there is one a minute, if we have already mentioned the tax reform, the head of the tax committee of the parliament, danylo getmantsov , said that it is necessary to move somewhere in the direction of the polish tax model, is it appropriate in ukraine, or is it possible that there is a seed that we

will take, but make our own? i want to next discussion, remind him that he deceived us all, he promised six months ago, when we were considering the polish model, i even wrote a text on this topic, and we had discussions with him, and he swore that the polish model of taxation there will be no small business in ukraine, it is not in time, it is a good model for it , but it is a polish model, let us tell the audience why it is not in time, because the stakes are high, or why, because it is tougher for ukrainian business, we have not the right level of well-being and we have the wrong level of business, which is in poland, if we tax, as poles 18% of it business. in our country, this industry will close tomorrow, it will simply not exist , we have it, to put it briefly, we have taxation, depending on the income of the group, how much money you get, in poland what does the class want, what do we want, depending on the type, auditors, auditors, appraisers, lawyers

pay the most, followed by taxi drivers, then, you see, it goes by professions, if you exaggerate, taxation goes by professions. you and i are not in the same situation right now. to make taxes harder. it is necessary to bring order with scrolls, and schemes, and with smuggling, with vep and other structures, there is live money, but it is necessary to touch small business. thank you for joining the conversation, mykhailo neprin, the first vice-president of the chamber of commerce and industry of ukraine was in touch. well, vasyl, that's how i saw this economic week, although it was a little short because of january 1, but i'll keep an eye on it. for news from the world of money, but the big broadcast continues, where there will be a lot more information, watch us, yes, so what well, now is the time to learn about sports, yevhen

, there is us senator george mitchell, new mexico governor bill richardson , astrophysicist over there, david copperfield, astrophysicist swin hawking and britain's prince andrew, well, it's interesting if this stain also falls on trump, by the way, i'm not at all surprised to learn that his name appears here, it will be very interesting, actually, it promises a very interesting story in the prospect of the presidential elections in the usa , and now the prospect of the weather for this weekend, natalka dyadenko will share information with us, mrs. natalya, i congratulate you, please have a word, congratulations, vasyl, congratulations, dear viewers, now we will talk about the weather, which promises very, very many surprises, literally in a second, immediately after... i will start our meeting today with a message about the coming cold, it will begin gradually from

january 7 and will continue to spread, first to the north, then it will spread to a large part of the territory of ukraine, so we will start talking about how to protect yourself from hypothermia and severe frost, well, they highly advise, for example, to dress in layers, that is, not just one sweater, but several light sweaters. because it can prevent sweating, which is very dangerous in the cold, and in general, clothing should be very loose, protect, well, of course , open areas of the skin, gloves, nose and ears should be protected with a hat, scarf, hoods, high collars, well, it is not recommended to go when it's very cold, you leave the street hungry, you should definitely eat something, of course, well what is caloric or warm, and by the way, if it is frozen, they also advise something just to have a snack and it is advisable to go into a warm room every half an hour, an hour, if, for example, you spend the whole day outside, well, does everyone

have this opportunity now, to move, it is necessary to move in order to increase blood circulation in... vessels, you can jump, you can move your toes, and it is strongly not recommended to touch metal with bare hands , everyone liked to do it with their tongues in childhood, by the way, alcohol is strongly not recommended, because alcohol dilates blood vessels, which leads to rapid heat loss, well, here are the recommendations about the forecast itself, and for tomorrow and the coming days, we will talk with you, and now we return from the bitter frosts of the coming ones to behavior. of the earth's magnetic field, and now we have a forecast diagram for your attention, and it can be seen from it that the situation is stable and calm, so we will not linger here, but move on to the weather forecast for january 6 on epiphany, well, we traditionally start with the western regions, i immediately want to say that almost everywhere, it will still be warm tomorrow, look, for example, at

in the west, well, there are many pluses, although there will be wet snow, where you are higher... the air temperature is clear that it is raining, where the minuses are very, very careful not to slip, in the north it will be a cold night, well , comparatively, of course, but with minuses , so especially in the morning it will be slippery , be careful, tomorrow will still be relatively warm, i.e. somewhere close to zero, the air temperature will be slightly negative there, in the eastern part of ukraine, tomorrow the weather will be cloudy, without significant precipitation, the air temperature, as you can see ... and high 0.2° maximum, it is daytime. in the central part of ukraine, tomorrow also without significant precipitation. so far, the maximum air temperature tomorrow is from, now we will wait for the central region, we will look at the map with you, the air temperature from vinnytsia to dnipropetrovsk will range from two to three to

4 degrees celsius, that is, it will still be warm tomorrow. cloudy weather is expected in the southern part of ukraine tomorrow. also, precipitation is not expected, as in the east and in the center, the air temperature is very high, i would say, as you can see, +7 +10°, in places in the crimea it can even be up to +12. in kyiv, in the coming night, it will be minus somewhere around -3-5°, tomorrow the day will warm up, it will be from a league to zero, this air temperature will cause precipitation in the form of both rain and sleet, but still these minuses over the evening and at night they... will cause ice, and of course, i want to say, i already wrote about it on facebook, you probably also read the warnings of the official structures of our hydrometeorological organizations, starting from january 7, cold arctic air enters ukraine in january, this happens in winter that there are frosts, the air temperature will drop, the coldest

will be somewhere in chernihiv oblast, sumy oblast, there somewhere on january 8-9 it may be as low as -20-22°, and... at the same time , the southern cyclone is entering the territory of ukraine, and therefore in the central part of ukraine, on in the south, east , and west, except for volyn and rivne region , difficult weather conditions are expected, snow, wet snow, snowdrifts, storms, wind gusts to storm gusts, of course, ice and snow, so if you do not absolutely need to go on the road here these coming days, somewhere until january 9, until january 10, it is better to refrain from long trips. this is the closest, complex, but very interesting synoptic perspective in ukraine, and i would like to congratulate everyone on christmas eve today, baptism tomorrow and may there be peace, peace and may all families be together. thank you very much ms. natalka, and for

the information about the weather and for the greetings, of course. it would be desirable for all of us to protect ourselves in these critical frosts, well, there were no such frosts this winter, there was something, sorry, plus or minus, but, but not -20, not minus 15, and of course, the enemy is obvious activates with its missile strikes, if nothing happens to it, and on the other hand, you know, the enemy activates, we read that now in russian novgorod , the master of veliky novgorod, sometime in the late 80s or 90s, had to visit . in novgorod, as part of an excursion there, such a thing was organized in soviet times, but i will tape it there, well, it is to the north, but there people are already tapering the windows with this insulating tape, because they are waiting for... flights, russia is also waiting and afraid of the cold, that's why that they also turn off and also fly in, and it is possible to overcome russia in this and discourage the desire

to shoot at us. good evening without ukraine. turn on well - it's when everything is as you want. click, and you are in the world of cartoons, click and on... when the universe of cinema, then, oh, what is necessary! megogo, turn on hundreds of channels, thousands of movies and sports. there are discounts on amicitron of 20% in psyllanyk, pam and oskad pharmacies. it's a really intriguing film, a film about the life and career of the first lady at...

i don't admire her intellectual method of not being able to think she could be wrong? but undoubtedly, exactly thatcher's reforms laid the foundation for the well-being of the state for many years to come. she was the prime minister who really eradicated. today's world is sorely lacking in leaders of margaret thatcher's caliber, so it's all the more interesting to take another look at the extraordinary life and times of this formidable woman. come back if you want. the lady only goes forward. thatcher documentary. only forward. january 7 at 10:10 and 22:00 at espresso. events, events that are happening right now and affect our lives, of course, the news feed reports about them, but it is not enough to know what is happening, it is necessary

understand. antin borkovskii and invited experts soberly assess events, analyze them, modeling our future, every saturday at 1:10 p.m. with a repeat on sunday at 10:10 a.m. studio zahid with anton borkovsky at espresso. verdict with serhiy rudenko from now on in a new two-hour format, even more analytics, even more important topics, even more top guests: foreign experts, inclusion from abroad, about ukraine, the world, the front, society, and also feedback, you you can express your opinion on a bad day with the help of a telephone survey, turn on and tune in, verdict with serhii rudenko, every weekday from 20 to 22 at espresso. on february 20, 2023, us president joseph biden will make an unannounced visit to kyiv, and the cameras will record how he and president zelenskyy leave the st. michael's cathedral

to the sound of an air raid alarm. the visit was more than symbolic. at the beginning of the year, the west united in support of ours. chancellor of germany olaf scholz finally gave permission for deliveries of modern leopard-2 tanks to kyiv, and ukrainian servicemen have already mastered american patriot systems in the state of oklahoma. it seemed that support for ukraine was stronger than ever. we have created a coalition of countries from the atlantic to the pacific around the world. more than 50 nations are helping ukraine defend itself with an unprecedented military economy. voices: the loudest of them is the prime minister of hungary

, viktor orbán, who never tired of calling for so-called peace, even if ukraine has to give up its territories. if you look at the truth, if you look at the numbers, if you look at the fact that nato is not ready to send its troops to ukraine. then it becomes obvious: the poor ukrainians cannot win on the battlefield, which means that de-escalation and peace negotiations are needed. at the beginning of june, the ukrainian counter-offensive in the south finally began, it did not achieve quick results, and already at the nato summit in freedom, kyiv awaited the first disappointment. allies have clearly stated that they are not ready to invite ukraine to the alliance. we must take a sober look at the current situation. the ukrainian authorities themselves recognize the impossibility of becoming a nato member while the war continues. our goal is sustainable military support of ukraine, in particular, with modern western

weapons and strengthening. economic stability of ukraine during protection from russian aggression. towards the end of the summer, it becomes finally clear that the results of the counteroffensive are more than modest. the international coalition is beginning to show cracks. in the spring, half a year before the parliamentary elections in poland, the right-wing government of mateusz murovecki banned the supply of ukrainian agricultural products. kyiv and warsaw exchanged a number of harsh statements, and in november polish carriers began... a large-scale blockade of the border with ukraine. on september 30 , the party of ex-prime minister robert fico, a categorical opponent of military aid to ukraine, won the parliamentary elections in slovakia. one of our largest allies in the region has stopped sending weapons to the armed forces of ukraine. in november, europe was stunned by the results of the parliamentary elections in the netherlands. the far-right freedom party led by geert

wilders won the first place there. he is also in favor. limitation of military support, and the attention of the world was diverted from ukraine by a large-scale war in the near future in the east, which flared up after the harsh attack of the islamist group hamas on israel, but the biggest problems awaited kyiv in the united states: the american congress de facto plunged into the election campaign and refused to support the aid package to ukraine worth more than 60 billion dollars. republicans put forward a categorical demand, first to strengthen security on the border with mexico. within three months, volodymyr zelensky was forced to visit the united states twice, but failed to convince congressmen. at a joint press conference with the ukrainian leader 12 in december, president joseph biden used completely different wording than in kyiv at the beginning of the year. ukraine will emerge from this war strong, proud and firmly anchored in the western system, if we do not leave it. americans should

be proud of the role they...didn't play in supporting ukraine's success, and we will continue to provide ukraine with the equipment and weapons it needs as long as we can. problems with aid also arose in europe. the same viktor orban blocked the adoption of a four-year aid package for ukraine worth 50 billion euros. military support of kyiv by the international coalition has fallen to its lowest level since the start of the full-scale invasion. statements about the need to seek a diplomatic solution are increasingly heard in the west. so in 2024, ukraine enters conditions of deep political, military and economic uncertainty, despite this , zelenskyy made optimistic statements at the final annual press conference. i believe once again that our partners will not let us down, they know the details, what is needed, how it will affect, they know how the postponement of certain dates affects, they know about our insistence that it is not artificial, that it is

necessary. strength for our defense. whether there are grounds for optimism will become clear at the beginning of the 24th. on january 8 , the american congress will return from vacation, and on february 1, the leaders of the european union will gather for a special summit in order to try to approve the aid package for ukraine in a second attempt. this is a truly intriguing film, a film about the life and career of the first female prime minister of great britain. where there is disorder, we will bring. harmony, where there are mistakes, we will bring the truth. margaret thatcher, iron lady. whether everyone loved her or supported her reforms. i don't admire her intellectual method of not being able to think she could be wrong. but there is no doubt that it was thatcher's reforms that laid the foundations for the welfare of the state for many years to come. she was the prime minister who truly eradicated socialism from the system. today's

world is sorely lacking in quality leaders. margaret thatcher, it is all the more interesting to take another look at the extraordinary life and times of this formidable woman. come back as you wish. the lady only goes forward. the documentary "thatcher, only forward". on january 7th at 10:10 and 22:00 at espresso. we will observe a minute of silence. the memory of ukrainian military and peaceful citizens of ukraine who died in the war that was unleashed by russia.
