or somehow fight on are at the front or in the rear of the armed forces, and one way or another they directly experience all these negative consequences. the consequences of the war on themselves and their personalities. in turn, black zaporozhians thanked the graduates and noted that with such a growing generation, they are confident in our future and victories. lyubov gerashchenko, oleksandr kuga, espresso, bila tserkva. that's all the news i have for now, see you in less than an hour. his story has begun. from the revolution of dignity, this is yury hrytsai, a veteran of the russian-ukrainian war, a two-time

volunteer. in 2014, he joined the military command and later defended our country in the 95th separate airborne assault brigade. after the liberation of sloviansk, he was demobilized, so yuriy went to work abroad, however, on the second day of the full-scale war, he was in ukraine to to defend our independence again. my wife was in the dnipro, she called me that the war had started. and i understood that it was a one-way ticket, but on february 25 i was already in dnipro, i signed up for the national guard, in dnipro-1, in short, wherever they took me, i signed up there, and in march we were already defending luhansk region, in the rubezhny region , after being wounded yuriy returned to the dnipro to undergo a rehabilitation course, recalling the everyday life at the front, he notes that his wife was the biggest support for him, he always carried her letter close to his heart. now a man

has two dreams: the first and most important is that our defenders do not die. the second is your own house with a yard, where you can grow quail and treat your loved one to your favorite dishes. cooking occupies a special place in yuri's life. his eyes light up with happiness while cooking. today , the man is doing his favorite thing in the culinary center of the moscow state university and does not hide his delight at the opportunities given to him. when i came here for the first time, i fell in love, i fell in love, wow, it was just a cultural shock for me, that there is all the most modern equipment here, you look at the tables for the students, what equipment, how everything is shiny and beautiful, i have never seen anything like this anywhere, by education, yuriy is an engineer of nuclear plants, however, after a year of study, he realized that it was not for him, he says, he always felt that his heart was drawn to cooking , it all started in childhood for families. by tradition, yury's father cooked borscht every saturday and allowed him to help with the preparation, and when

the meal was finished, he threw barberry into it. today, yuri himself likes to search for and mix new flavors. yuriy officially worked as a shevkuhar eight years, all the time abroad. in total , he visited 50 countries of the world, worked in sweden, denmark, latvia, lithuania, bulgaria and even fed the king of saudi arabia with signature dishes. today he prepares a japanese spicy snack and so on. from beef tongue, i'm cooking tataki, now we'll start with the sauce, because it needs to cool down a little, and yes, from beef tongue suvit, which is also made here at the factory, a japanese dish, it will be a little bit spicy, it's a must, i i love spicy, so we will fry the egg now, it is already ready at our place. but we him a little let's add a touch of piquancy.

yuriy joined the team of the culinary center a year ago. he was just undergoing rehabilitation after a concussion. as part of the mhp program, the company created a position specifically for him so that the man could continue to work on cooking. yuriy works in a very innovative culinary center, this is very even on the scale of europe. innovative history and the conditions created for it, innovativeness is about experiments, it's about speed, it's about the ability to interact with different people, and that's exactly this business approach, he makes it possible for what yuri and his colleagues are talking about to adapt very quickly, from the 24th. in february, more than 3,000 company employees left offices, factories and fields to go to the front to defend our country, this is

more than 10% of employees with military experience. mhp is one of the first companies in ukraine to implement a program of reintegration and readaptation of veterans. the idea arose back in may 2022, and already in 2023 a comprehensive support program for ukrainian defenders was launched. currently, we already have a job center. with mobilized and veterans who take care of our mobilized workers and demobilized ones, i.e. veterans and members. where our businesses are located, in addition, our expertise is already stable enough that we can, as i said, share with others. yuri's story is just one example. the company says it creates all the necessary conditions for the effective adaptation of its veteran employees to life in the family, team, and community. we

recreated such a complete chain of how our employee mobilized. and we cover the needs of its military unit, humanitarian, of course, there are his personal needs, yes, there are clothes, there are some settings, also, if health problems arise during service, we help to treat and rehabilitate such an employee. on the basis of the mhp program, a center for interaction with military personnel and veterans is systematically operating nearby. it has 15 coordinators who provide individual support and comprehensive support to defenders and their families every day. the programs are as given by the mhp nearby, it’s so cool, right here to flatter the company there, it’s so cool that it exists, that in you have seizures there, like i had,

they put you in the hospital, a psychologist is working, they found a psychologist that i needed, medical... guidance, material assistance, a workplace, legal support, social reintegration, professional adaptation, psychological support and friendly atmosphere - the main factors of the mhp program are nearby, this is exactly what ukrainian military personnel who return from the war to society need. dear friends, we are back on the air, we are following what is happening in ukraine. not only in ukraine, in germany, just now in these seconds , the leaders of germany, the leaders of ukraine are preparing for a press conference regarding the press conference, the press conference regarding the conference on the restoration of ukraine, this is already the third such conference, by the way, the first one was in lugano, then it was in london, you see, it is live now volodymyr

zelenskyi communicates with sholtz, and this conference is actually dedicated to how ukraine will be restored, it will take place today and tomorrow, and more than 60 countries are participating in it. there could be 2,001 participants, but the agency with the restoration of ukraine, the ukrainian one led by mustafa naim, will not be represented by ostofenoem, because he resigned, because he resigned, because he was not signed, by the way, the permission to participate in this conference, such a story is interesting, let's be sure about this, we will talk about it with serhii sumlenin in german. political scientist, director of the initiative center european sustainability, we will add him to the conversation, mr. serhiy, we welcome you, good morning, good afternoon, i congratulate you, so there is a conference in germany with restoration of ukraine, are they talking in germany about what preceded this conference, that in fact the person who should have been there

, because she heads this agency regarding the restoration, has resigned. the publication in the top and about this very event, or is it in germany, also somehow appeared in the headlines somewhere, well, you know, i have not seen such a thing in a wide information space, of course, within the limits of this conference, well, first of all, those people who probably had already scheduled meetings there, of course they are on they may react with surprise, while it is clear that it is about ukraine. an attitude with great understanding that the situation is difficult and that there is a war going on in the country, you know, i have been talking to germans and german women for a long time, when i talk about how the two cultures of planning meetings, let's say, ukrainian and german, look like , and the germans constantly say that they do not understand how they turn to the ukrainians and offer

to schedule a meeting there for the next year , eight or nine months in advance, so that they can be properly planned. and probably even on next year for 12 months into the future and the ukrainians do not understand them, and on the other hand, when the ukrainians turn to the germans and speak there, we have a delegation coming there next week, we need to organize a meeting in the bundestag, the germans do not understand, how is it possible, and i think that these two cultures of organizing meetings and planning, they flatter each other and... and i think that from the german point of view this is a cancellation, of course, it does not correspond to the german, let's say, ideas about what the planning will look like. has little look, but this is treated with understanding, and everyone is waiting for this conference, and i can say that the excitement

around it is very great and there is a very great interest in this conference, it basically has the appearance of such exclusivity, and for the first time in germany, for the first time in berlin, and all the circles working with ukrainian topics, they... are waiting so much, let's say, in such an emotional positive tension, that what will be decided at this conference, well, in the german government, until things have already reacted to that won't happen, said the spokesman of the federal government of germany, stephen hebertreit, that the absence of the head of the state agency for rehabilitation and infrastructure development, mustafeim, at the recovery conference should not harm the event, well, let's hope that it won't. goes down, it is important for ukraine. four main themes will be discussed again: the business dimension is the mobilization of the private sector to reconstruct economic growth.

socially, to reduce human capital, this means the demographic crisis, which extremely, extremely difficult. according to some estimates, there are not even 30 million people left in ukraine, some estimates even say that there are less than 25 ukrainians left in ukraine, these are scary numbers, here. also the restoration of municipalities and regions , the local regional dimension, these are also challenges, decentralization is now unfolding in many directions, and the accession of the eu and the corresponding reforms, as if all four topics are important, all four topics are interesting, will there be any breakthroughs here, or is it more some kind of ritual discussions, well, all the topics that you mentioned, they are all extremely important for ukraine and for recovery, the problem is that... under each of these topics, under it, it is obvious that the fundamental reason why this topic is on the agenda at all right now

is the war, and obviously, what if, let's say this, if the war ends, if ukraine wins, or when ukraine wins, russia, we are forced, unfortunately, to interrupt you, because just at this moment olaf scholz has already come to the podium and we, yes, all because scholz, listen. we watch it. just now scholz has just decided that he is not ready to kill you, mr. sergius, so please continue. no questions. well, scholz also does not interfere with this idea that ukraine must first win and then all these problems, they will solve them much easier. well , what you said is that 20 million 25 remained in ukraine. of course, as soon as the war ends, ukraine wins, a large part of these people will return. the same on other issues, i.e. uh of course this conference is needed to have a strategy to normalize that strategy and first of all, ukraine's membership in the eu, and

ukraine's membership in nato, and the organization of all these things, and the fact that we are working a lot, let's say, with the confiscation of russian, russian property already now, in order to start this reconstruction right now and to to add help to ukraine, but that's all the same, until ... rockets will fly into ukrainian places, the situation will not, will make this quantum leap in order to return to normal, so there should be two movements, of course, and recovery and victory, but they are not mutually exclusive, of course, on the contrary, only support. mr. serhiy, tell me, please, there is a human dimension here, yes, actually about the restoration of people, the return of people to ukraine and the fact that... really people, first of all women with children ended up and older people ended up in germany, or no, maybe somewhere in german circles they are quietly

talking about this among themselves, maybe it is not customary to say it out loud, but we know the statistics of the birth rate in europe, one and a half births per woman, despite the fact that there is a policy of encouraging women to give birth to children, and this is lower than 2 which is necessary to maintain the population, this is despite the fact that they don't even have a war, here we understand, this ratio is low because of the fact that the war is going on, and that's where the women ended up, yes, sorry, again we cannot continue, because we are going to the press conference, to the broadcast of the press conference, regarding the conference on the restoration of ukraine, which is ongoing, started in berlin, we see, they continued to work in dilapidated workshops, without heating in winter and on a fast track'. repaired roof. to the question, how is it at all possible, the director answered simply: it's in the people. this sentence

says a lot about... ukrainian men and women who never give up, who defend their country and take care that everything continued to work, and therefore, ladies and gentlemen, we can say one thing with confidence: russia will not pass with its imperialist invasion. ukraine is following the path chosen by ukrainian men and women themselves. critically, freely in europe. we walk this path with you, loving vladimir, and that is why today here in berlin we are working to restore a strong, free, european of ukraine. strength, devotion to principles, these are prerequisites for putin to realize that there will be no military victory and peace in the form of

a dictate. he must... stop the brutal campaign and withdraw the troops, bring this realization closer to the goal of the peace summit that we are going to this weekend in switzerland, where we will make it clear to partners from all over the world that we support international law and the charter of the united nations in this case, this means that we will support ukraine. relations between germany and ukraine were not so close and trusting after february 24, 2022, we provided support to ukraine in the amount of 30 billion euros, this is only military aid, the following

billions are also for humanitarian. help the most urgent need of the ukrainian army now is ammunition and weapons, especially air defense. therefore , in the coming weeks and months, we will deliver the third patriot air defense system, airestia installations, cheetahs, missiles and ammunition to ukraine. all these missiles will go to ukraine in the coming months and weeks. i would like to address everyone present and ask you: support our initiative to increase the capacity of the ukrainian air defense forces as much as you can. because the best reconstruction is the one that doesn't even have to be implemented.

volodymyr zelenskyi and i signed in february. a security agreement that provides for long-term support. more than 10 countries have already concluded similar agreements with ukraine. these agreements will ensure the future of ukraine in peace and freedom. they are also security guarantees for entrepreneurs who are already starting a business in ukraine today, or are thinking about it. restoration and reconstruction of the country will require colossal investments. 500 billion us dollars, such an amount, such an amount is called by the world bank. the day after tomorrow , president zelenskyi and i will be at the summit of the great sinka in apulia. i will advocate far-reaching and long-term commitments for ukraine. given the scale we

're talking about, we can't do without private... the restoration of ukraine is and must become a matter of business. ahead will be those who started to act early, who are already cultivating and expanding economic ties with ukraine. what to the german economy, i say: you do it. hundreds of german companies are actively working in ukraine, 35,000 people work in the automotive industry alone. despite the war, the outflow. german investments are not observed, our mutual trade turnover has increased significantly in comparison with the pre-war period, with regard to the new investment guarantees of the federal government, ukraine is in the first place here. the number of members of our foreign trade chamber in kyiv increased by 60% last year.
