a wandering mortar, when it was placed in a closed truck and it was supposed to appear in some different places, but the fact that garbage trucks have a clear logic in this, because these are foreigners who worked in russia, obviously in unskilled work, well, now it will start there at all will begin... the trends are interesting, when many migrants from central asia will be passed through the sito fsb, and therefore i think that there will be problems, including with unskilled labor. okay, one more question, we know what to expect by april 9 money and weapons from america do not make sense, because congressmen. went on vacation

and aid to ukraine is being withdrawn, in principle , what do you think, in your opinion, here we imagine the worst option, america stops such systemic support, is there a plan b in ukraine, is it possible to create a plan b, where to get money and where take a weapon? well, i understand that plan b is the signing of security agreements, where... one sum, more than 3 billion pounds, was promised to the germans, sorry british pounds, more than 3 billion euros to the germans, ours hope to get something through ukraine facility, but it's only for the economy, it's not for weapons, i don't think that we can, well, you know, it's very difficult to calculate, get something for weapons. "if you don't agree

with the united states, considering that the united states has the largest allocations in the world for the defense-industrial complex, and therefore, well, this is a really serious problem, and it would be nice if ukraine tried to somehow solve it, but you are right in the fact that now the congressmen are on easter vacation and they will not pass anything, there is only one..." the bright moment is the phone conversation between michael johnson and volodymyr zelensky that took place this week, but i think that in any case we need to work, maybe not even so much with the legislators themselves, but with the relevant republican circles in order to to remind that the republican party has always been, well, let's say, quite critical of to... to moscow, look, now i kind of

want to go home, and maybe you can at least help me explain this rumors, gossip, bills that are raging somewhere in the verkhovna rada, from the people's servants , that is, about the project on the appropriation of state functions, i'm already on the third or second day, i'm not thinking anymore and i'm trying to understand... what is meant by by this draft law, as i understand it, it is meant that some deputy goes somewhere in europe, for example, and says, on behalf of the state, well, i have a hard time imagining that he is a modern deputy saying, on behalf of the state: do not help ukraine, do not give them money, don't give them guns, i think that all the deputies, who get to europe, to america, they say the opposite, let’s go, let’s go, then

why ban it, who, who, well, what kind of monopoly is this, if mr. yevhen went to europe, if i went to europe, we are not deputies , but i know for sure that in a store, in a pub, in a restaurant, and in a taxi, i said, let's help ukraine, i am convinced that mr. yevhen said the same thing, but here i am forbidden, we appropriate it with mr. yevhen, state functions, we cannot talk, do you help ukraine or not? i am right understand this absurdity? you know, since we are people with a sense of humor, we would like this draft law to be directed, for example, against the former adviser, head of the president's office, oleksiy aristovych, who, after taking office, went abroad and there expresses alternative opinions about the fact that he spoke at least in the first weeks. of a large-scale russian

revolution, but in fact this is a shameful documentary that appeared for the simple reason that for centuries ukraine was... a nation without a state, and we do not have the necessary traditions, we do not have the necessary experience , we do not have the green understanding that in the conditions of war we should consolidate, create something and turn the verkhovna rada into a conveyor for making the necessary decisions, and not a branch of the 1995. talu, which is accordingly funny, and, well, i don't know, it's, you know , it's laughter, through tears, when, in fact, here you have to understand that legislative spam is not

a ukrainian invention, and all kinds of jokes, they were always in different parliaments, and there were fools in different parliaments. but not there was such a large-scale war, well, i, like you, am a historian by education, but i do not recall that american congressmen or, god forbid, parliamentarians of the third reich during the second world war proposed some hundred percent nonsense, and then told or volkischer beobachter that they they were not really understood that way, well... it seems to me that the matrix of war, it imposes certain obligations on people who have mandates, ee, which were issued to them by other people, that is, voters. the piquancy of the situation is that ms bezugla and ms. trettiakova are representatives

of the ruling party, which has a monomajority, and as far as i understand the logic of how the system works. monitoring the actions of the verkhovna rada, this is this initiative, it was monitored by our partners, and these relevant, relevant conclusions went further to their mfas, state departments and other kds, and therefore, well, the question arises, how and what to do with it next, well, yes, that is... then to say: sorry, we were joking, i'm not convinced that mrs. beuzholy has such a sense of humor, irony and so on, she has, she is a very serious person, well i'm sorry for being bold, i'm always very

, so i was very, if i was always afraid all my life of serious, too serious people, because they usually do stupid things, well , you can't do anything here, eh, look, i would also like to ask about ukraine , as far as you see today, what dangers do you see today, because i always say that i am an optimist, and i do not see such dangers, but i am still a journalist, on the other hand, and i have to listen not only to optimists like me, but and such realistic pessimists as you, mr. eugene, so what do you see as the challenges today ? the danger, in my opinion, is called kremlin spring 2024, it is a combination of various steps that are systematically carried out against ukraine. well, for a week now the russian media and

the russian authorities have been telling how bad things are in krok city hall, what victims there are and how the terrorists were going to escape to ukraine from there. since vladimir putin himself acts as the information locomotive of this process, it is clear that everyone takes under a visor and says yes, and accordingly it also promotes, it is one point, the second point is the intensification of russian actions in the eastern direction, and i think in the southeastern direction, that is, russia will try to look for weak points in our defense. in order to try to escape to the operational space. the third is the strikes on the energy infrastructure, which, as far as i understand, should also be part of making millions of ukrainians feel uncomfortable.

the fourth is pedaling the thesis that volodymyr zelenskyi's mandate will end on may 20, and he will, i emphasize, be illegitimate. there is guilt here our government, which did not manage to find certain correct steps in this direction, first of all from the point of view of jurisprudence and accordingly did not find the right, well no, did not find the right approach and currently has a personnel deficit in the constitutional court, where there may simply be a lack of people to issue a verdict, but in any case, to communicate for the enthusiasts of holding elections like it is a shame that holding presidential elections in a warring country means holding elections

for a supreme commander, and there is a serious the threat of seeing tens or even hundreds of technical candidates, spoilers, who will simply discredit the process itself and criticize the acting supreme commander-in-chief volodymyr zelenskyi, this, i think, was quite the message for us, one more... one direction is that, actually , why is putin shedding crocodile tears over those who died in the city hall step, he will try to prove to western citizens that ukraine supports terrorists, and this is actually a serious challenge, if we do not communicate this correctly and do not show an appropriate response, then we can to have certain problems for... mr. yevgeny, one more question, i already raised it yesterday, and

today i will raise it with you as well, share your mind on which one, on the following topic: i just remember how the soviet system was losing trust. i was very young when there was almost complete trust, the 60s, the beginning of the 70s, then at the end of the 70s such fluctuations came, and there was no longer such a strong trust, but at the beginning of... it was distrust, laughter. so you say that putin, if he pedals, excuse me, tell the whole story, that ukrainians are terrorists and so on, that they are guilty, the city hall steps and so on. i have it, don't ask where it comes from, it's not rational, it's emotional. the feeling that after the situation with navalny's death, after the so-called elections and after crocus, russians have confidence. well, the first signs of incredulous doubts appear, what do you say? no i do not think so. i

understand why you have such a logic of thinking, because 87%, to draw, well, it is, so to speak, simple, but to convince everyone is much more difficult. in this sense, i understand, but there is no point in convincing putin now. all others, he will, so to speak, fix the result and will continue to work with him, and he will promote the thesis about the connection of ukraine with islamic terrorists to western ordinary people , who, unlike western leaders, do not have this completeness of information, and they will try to... constantly question it, say , well, you see, these ukrainians

are like that, and this can have an effect in terms of the amount of aid provided to ukraine, which is why i say that this is kremlin spring 2024, sufficiently focused and as free as possible. thank you very much, thank you very much, evgeny. executive director of the institute of world politics was in touch with us, and now we are up to such urgent issues, energy, housing and communal services, oleksiy kucharenko, people's deputy of ukraine, first deputy chairman of the committee on energy and housing and communal services of the verkhovna rada of ukraine. we haven't seen each other in a long time, mr. oleksiy, but thank you for finding time for us, and sorry if... you missed us, i missed you, i definitely missed you, and even you see, now that the dovbyk

scored the second goal for our girona, you understand, for our dobyk with gypsy, they hurt, two a few minutes ago, he scored two goals to make it 2:1, which means that even if something is good, mr. oleksiy, let 's talk about the energy system of ukraine, they are pushing and shoving... already not in winter, in summer, is the ukrainian energy system capable of... taking these blows, it is obvious that it is unlikely that there will be any better than improvement, but will there be such a heart-breaking deterioration that they will simply turn off the lights for a day, for two, for three and so on and so on, what do you say, mr. oleksiyu, thank you, mr. mykola, well, let's be pragmatic, objective, yes, it may be unpleasant, let's

analyze the situation, i will start not with us, not with ukraine, not with the ener system. i will start with the enemy, we can see something, something has changed, yes, because three times in a row, at the same objects, very powerful strikes, such strikes as the last one and, as the first and second had not happened in two years, you see, there were no such powerful strikes, what this shows, firstly, we expected them to run out of missiles, something is not running out, you see, i don't see something trends in the end, moreover, we... there is a fear that they have established production at the military level of the country , put production there and stamp their damn missiles. secondly, we hoped that these carcasses are very old, they are 45, 50 years old, what will be there, well, the 95, you understand, they are strategic bombers, they no longer have spare parts, there is no resource,

reptiles are flying, you understand , that is , they somehow fixed it, they take off regularly and... the fact that they really target these rockets at objects like the old ones, because they aim, i have pay attention, because the same tes that you have there in the lviv region, in the nearby ivano-frankivsk region, in dnipropetrovsk, in the vinnytsia region, they have been digging for a long time, but unfortunately, a new object has been added, very similar , well , it's unpleasant for me, it's a gas facility, just like you have in the lviv region and... three times in a row, they kiss there. well, fortunately, although a person died there today, it is very unfortunate, fortunately, the destruction would not have been powerful today, i spoke there with the management of the relevant company, i will be very ottievata, yes, because just yesterday the minister of energy addressed all specialists,

all campaign managers, well, if only it were as hidden as possible, yes, as much as possible, although. it is clear that these are all the secrets of policheneli, but nevertheless, we understand that this is a gas object, it is a very strategic object for us, and the next winter will depend very seriously on it, and the main thing is that it is a signal, even not only to ukrainians, but also to european gas companies, do not pump gas to them, do not risk pumping gas, your european ukrainian storage facilities, because you may not get it back, you understand? we don't need empty storage facilities, because they are technologically built in such a way that it is very important to have serious volumes there, at least 15-16 billion, preferably 20 billion cubic meters. well , this is a gas-related issue, although you understand that so far we have not had any problems with gas, but it is gas-related, as for electricity, it is absolutely clear, the head of dtek declares that

80% of our generation is either destroyed or badly damaged. i.e., out of five, removed from power today they hit the stations at four o'clock, and some of the blocks are very seriously damaged, the part will be repaired, this is a private company, a week ago they attacked the dniproges and hit very seriously, you understand, yesterday it was an attack on other hydro stations, and mr. syrata, he is the head of hydropower , says that they lost 40 percent of their capacity, kharkiv, if you look, well, this is open information, we saw a photo of tpp5, and this is a very important sign for the city. tets5 is very seriously destroyed, and even experts say that it cannot be restored it is possible, this is the heat of the city of kharkiv, a millionaire , next to it is zmiyovskaya tesk, this is the state company ukr tsenterenergo, sorry, it is damaged,

very seriously, as well as loss of energy, mr. oleksiy, clarifying question, but... is it possible to somehow prevent these destructions, because one thing to criticize, but it’s another matter, i also criticize, but he doesn’t criticize, no, no, you don’t criticize, i’m just saying for the audience that there are options when we can’t do anything, you can shout, you can criticize, you can praise, but look, two points, strengthening this, strengthening them, you understand, in why is it, they were doing something, they were doing something there... they were doing it under very secret conditions, conditions , that is, no one even had any documentation, you understand, there was no serious design documentation, dbns, that is, in essence , other things. our engineers are designers there, they built, designed some objects, did some kind of protection, i spoke with the head of one state company, the most important of

the most important, he told me verbatim that if there were no such objects, it would have suffered twice as much , there would be 50% more damage, we are talking about substations, this is not very large stations, you understand, these are substations , this is the system of a unified energy system, transformer substations that make it possible to transfer from one region to another, that is, what can happen, we have generation capacity, but if the network is destroyed, then it is not possible to transfer, you understand , and that is why there are now problems in kharkiv oblast , odesa oblast, kryvyi rih, and this is summer, well, not summer, spring, we have 24°, i don’t know how you are today, you understand, of course in winter these problems can be very acute, but i think they are in the summer too get worse and we will have to use some restriction regimes already this summer, when there is special security and - the consumption

of air conditioners is increasing, and air conditioners, that is, i just wanted to ask about air conditioners - the second is not me, that is, fortification is one thing, but it is absolutely clear, 90% guarantee of stable operation of our energy system, this is air defense, and considering what they will graze on, it is first of all... a patriot and it is not by chance that mr. zelensky , the president, says: 5-7 patriots and we would close the line, well, the objects are at least powerful, you understand, we would not close the entire very large ukraine, but we would close these facilities, and this is for us today the non-supply of these patriots for us, well, this is so key or is this a problem of our survival, then we can with you as a political scientist from to think and analyze as a political scientist, and what is behind this? and what they want to tell us, what kind of signal to convey, but you, you have this thought, and i have it, it occurs to all ukrainians, and what is behind this, that it is not

possible to give 5-7 of these, and there we observe, as there is 50 on 50, wall wall in the most powerful the countries of the world have come together, it's not any easier for us, you see, and we suffer from it every day, the kyiv hpp, you talked about... about gas, there was an attack, thank god, it was damaged, but it didn't break, but i let 's distinguish the platina hydrotechnical structure itself, it is extremely difficult to destroy it, well , it is extremely difficult with rockets, because i will remind you, the kokhov platinum was blown up there , it was also blown up, mined and blown up from the inside, with rockets, well, it is extremely difficult to destroy it in order for it to break through, especially let's be honest, kyiv is fortified, fortunately... i understand that today it annoys the sumy region, it annoys the people of sumy, the people of kharkiv, i'm sorry, well , it happened, yes, it happened, i'm sometimes ashamed that i'm here in kyiv, and i see how

kharkiv, the sumy region, odessa are being torn apart there the same one and so on, crooked year, etc., so i would not scare now that the dams may be destroyed, but the fact that machinery, turbine equipment suffers, engine rooms, automation, relays and... basically, you see, this the orphan says that it will take at least two years to restore dniproges there, and now to you mykola, because we, you and i have to remember, yes, that dniprogest is a symbol of the soviet country, this, this , you understand, it is like this, and they were not afraid to beat on this symbol, besides, there was no such thing, you understand, that is, with from which i conclude that some, well, completely... red lines have been crossed, that is, putin is demonstrating that there are no longer any, nothing is holding him back, no obligations and doubts, so

to speak, mr. oleksiy, i will even cite a beautiful one that characterizes putin, all russian politics in general, they have a lot of very useful ones here proverb, seven troubles, one answer, what's the difference , i steal children, i kill, butch, this, so what's wrong with me? dnipro-hes, and i and dnipro-hes, i don't care about all the soviet ones, i already have there, i have more than one life term there, i already have 10 for you, well, what is it, what yes, either he will spend time in russia, or he will sit in a gag , he doesn’t have many options left, well, in general, what do you think, the challenges, you say dniprogez to renew for two years, so we, i’m in my head . i am a person, not a specialist, no specialist, like you, i'm negative, so it won't happen, it won't happen, there won't be any gears, it's out of balance, it does

n't matter what we go into winter with. in the summer we will somehow survive, even with air conditioners or without, but in the summer there is time to read, there is a bright day and so on, they changed the clock, from yesterday to today, somehow it will be easier, but it is winter, will they have time to make up at least part of it before next winter, mr. oleksii , well, you ask the question correctly, well , you know, i will tell you on the other hand, well , it seems to me that during the war, the horizon is desirable planning should be much shorter. i think, for now, by the way, for the last three or four days, the entire team of the ministry of energy, the state energy inspectorate, the management of state-owned companies, they went all over ukraine with specialists to do a real audit, a real audit, precisely in order to have an answer to your question, we will definitely invite the minister and the heads of the companies in the near future, but it will definitely be a closed meeting of the committee,

you understand, and then we will... consult on how to take this out into the open space, because she is, as it were, very sensitive, extremely sensitive, yes there will be information, but it is clear that it is ripe, well , at least we will understand what can be restored before the winter, what can be restored before this summer peak, that we have lost this generation capacity there for years, try as much as possible at the expense of importing european electricity? to insure yourself, you understand , as much as possible, well, in principle, but i set everyone to the mode of saving to the mode of maximum efficient consumption, well, i guarantee you that there will be problems, the schedules will probably be applied, because they are still being applied for the last week or so those six areas that i listed, and i believe that this regime, well, self-restraint, is very

sparingly related to... energy should become everyone here, as a national idea, you understand, do you want something, mr. oleksiy, the last question , we literally have one and a half minutes, it’s not so little , but we can do something to the russians , we’re also bombarding everything with oil, so we did, we did, you understand that these crazy blows of putin are a reaction on our successful strikes on the refinery, let's be clear to understand, it was and is very successful. blows, they, the russians are not able to fully protect their refineries, they are vulnerable, they are very scattered over the territory, you know, and this is a huge problem for them, because it caused a shortage, and accordingly there, well, a whole series of problems went, you know, and the increase prices, deficit and so on, and we personally hit putin on the pizza, you see, with this, and here is the reaction to such, i think that these are also good

blows to sevastopol and to the military... storks, it's the same caused, that's how boxing goes to you, yes, exchange, exchange of heavy strikes, how equal they are, well, that's a separate issue, it's also a subject of analysis, but nevertheless, we have no other choice, although you see that the country from which we expect patriots, and it gives us advice, gave and repeatedly, yes, that he will stop whining about the refinery, that is , he asks a lot... what if you don't hit us, and then we won't hit you, well, that's already the story, thank you very much, oleksiy kucherenko , people's deputy of ukraine, first deputy chairman of the committee on energy and housing and communal services of the verkhovna rada of ukraine, was in touch with us, told

me a lot of interesting things. and now i want to inform you that the glass state archive of the security service of ukraine is celebrating its 30th anniversary, the documents, which have been kept secret for a long time, about the work with them, our khrystyna yatskiv was asked about this by the head of the branch archive of the sbu andriy kogut, and i would also add that i remember the first days, the first months, even before independence, when yevgeny... the late king of heaven, opened these archives and gave permission to my friends from canada and america personally, go in these archives, see about your parents, about your grandfathers, about your relatives who were detained, arrested, nkvd, ngb and so on and so on and the like, and the work went on, and today , these days, khrystyna is 30 years old.
