against the country of the aggressor of the russian federation, and literally in a moment of news. good evening, we are from ukraine. well, we are starting a tragedy in poland , a military plane crashed at the airport in gnidyna, it happened during the preparation for the air show. previously, the plane crashed into the traffic lane and caught fire. the pilot died, unfortunately, he did not make it. eject, and by the way, there is also information that a russian plane, a dry superjet, crashed in the suburbs of moscow, near the settlement of apraksin, it exploded, caught fire, exploded, no, exploded, then caught fire, but according to the information of the russian media there were only crew members on board who all died. the russians attacked the village with drones.

at the time of the attack , residents of odnobivka in kharkiv oblast were receiving their pensions at a mobile post office. oleg senigubov, the head of the region, reported that a fire broke out as a result of the attack, one car was destroyed, and another was damaged. fortunately, again, in this situation, fortunately, people were not injured. a 94-year-old woman was injured when the enemy attacked beryslav in the kherson region, the regional military administration reported. the russians hit the city with a drone, a townswoman was hospitalized with shrapnel wounds for her life, doctors are currently fighting. well, because of the enemy attack on monday, july 8. this monday, all buildings of the ohmadit children's hospital were affected. one of them cannot be restored - said minister of health of ukraine viktor lyashko. according to him, he was at the scene, now there are plans to complete the act on the restoration of the hospital, next week okhmadit will choose a company that will carry out construction works. in general,

800 million hryvnias were received for the reconstruction of the children's hospital, these are state funds and money from charity accounts. today we already launched a blood center. i also became a donor today, and this allows us, taking into account the fact that the hematology oncology laboratory has been launched, to slowly return oncology patients to the department, which has already been repaired and brought to a condition that can receive patients. at the same time, we are waiting for the finalization of the defective act, which will say what the cost of construction should be in order to remove all the troubles after the terrorist act. we already had a radiology department up and running, and we continued to irradiate those children who started irradiation even before the attack, and now all facilities are working at full capacity. of this department, it is mri, cct,

and currently we expect to include in the near future a new machine, a new machine for the whole of ukraine, in the treatment, diagnostic process, this is petct with an effect, it will be a new technology, well, we will talk today, by the way precisely about the help that representatives of various businesses gave to okhmadyt, because it is really our common one. the point is that here everyone who can, who has the opportunity to allocate a significant amount of money, believe me, a lot who did it and today we will have a conversation with people who did it. denmark and luxembourg handed ukraine network equipment worth 2 million euros within the eticoalition, the ministry of defense reported. such equipment will be able to strengthen the power of data processing centers and cyber defense of the ministry of defense and the armed forces of ukraine. and a very

important decision. the polish diet recognized the deportation of the crimean tatars in 1944 as genocide. accordingly, the resolution was adopted today in the lower house. 414 polish deputies voted in favor of the house of parliament, 16 spoke against, let me remind you, the leadership of the ussr deported more than 200,000 crimean tatars from the peninsula, almost 800 people died. he noted that in ukraine, the law on the recognition of the genocide of the crimean tatar people was passed nine years ago. the co-chairman of the parliamentary friendship group with poland, mykola knyazhytskyi, who initiated a similar resolution in ukraine in 2015, made important comments. this decision of his polish colleagues. crimean tatars are part of the great ukrainian people, they are patriots of ukraine. together with them, we are fighting for their liberation and ours homeland of crimea. and the fact that poland supports us, and pavel kovel, who holds such a high position in the polish parliament,

initiates it. this is a very good sign and it is extremely important. here i can only support and agree that it is extremely important, and the more russians are told. their genocides, which they committed against the peoples of the north caucasus, against the crimean tatars, against the ukrainians, against many, many other peoples who lived even outside the borders of the soviet union, this is stalin's idea to mix all the peoples and create homo sovietikus, some went there, others went there, the fact that people died on the way, they were thrown out in the steppes of kazakhstan, in siberia, it didn't matter, people never mattered to the soviet system and... they don't even now, unfortunately , they don't have even now, well, that's exactly why she is exchanging them today in this terrible terrorist war of hers. from august 1, the women's compartment will appear in four more trains of ukrzaliznytsia, the women's flights are mentioned carefully: kharkiv-ivano-frankivsk, zaporizhzhia- yasinya,

commission of the ukrainian catory university chose the winners of the educational ukrainian taiwanese. our colleagues know the criteria used to determine the schools that receive computer equipment and training, they will tell you more: 143 questionnaires, 40 candidates and 5 days of interviews. the independent competitive commission of teachers of the ukrainian catholic university selected 24 schools as participants in the educational charitable project leave no one behind. they will be 14 educational institutions from the lviv region, six from the ivano-frankivsk region, and four from the poltava region. to choose the most motivated teams, the jury conducted interviews with teachers each interview is told by the vice-rector of ucu, not just a conversation, but a look into the school's past, for the sake of its future. every

interview is a conversation, it is an exchange of information, it is a joke, it is a serious conversation, and we want these interviews. to know more about the school, about the dreams of the teachers, about the support of the teachers' administration. tetyana zakharchenko, head of the bachelor's program in computer science at the ukrainian catholic university. it was tatiana and her colleagues, the best it specialists of ucu, who conducted interviews and selected the strongest. among the criteria selection is not only the level of knowledge and skills, motivation and interest, but also the openness and support of teachers by the school administration. it also includes things like team spirit, because we select the teams from the school so that it will be easier for them, and it will be more likely that they will implement this openness to knowledge, so that they will really want to learn. we want that all this knowledge is not just shared by us and they are put on the shelf and that's all, we

want them to share with the students after that and that we have such a certain a community of computer science teachers who will continue to learn, communicate, and help each other. in fact, there are a lot of good, strong applications and we have to choose, i really hope that this project will continue and we will be able to work not only these three areas that are currently selected, but also more. because there are a lot of schools that are trying to develop this direction and have good success, really, and i would really like to support them and somehow launch it on a nationwide scale. two teachers from 24 schools for several months, they will study at the ukrainian catholic university according to specially developed programs. educators will practice cutting edge. the basis of the program is

work with artificial intelligence. teachers will learn how to use it and will transfer these skills not only to students, but also to colleagues. on july 22, our schools begin training in uku. they will have such studies for three to 5 days at the university, and in addition, they will have home studies, distance learning and... with inclusions and meetings with their teachers, those schools that applied for training and did not pass, we will try as much as possible to involve in other directions of the implementation of our project, and not with knowledge alone: ​​16 laptops, a projector with a screen and a set for robotics will be received by each school after the completion of the training modules. year, as part of a similar initiative , more than 100 computers were given to schools in lviv region and poltava region. the project is implemented by the public organization all-ukrainian democratic

forum with the support of taiwan and with the assistance of mykola knyazhytskyi. the whole project involves that we will be able to computerize more than 100 schools. various programs will be used for this, there will be programs for the development of communities, there will be programs for the development of entrepreneurship. this educational development program, i would like to thank, firstly, the government of taiwan, secondly, the ukrainian catholic university, its excellent teachers. to everyone who started this program and supported it, and of course to the teachers who participated in this program, but this is only the beginning, because our goal is to make and expand this pilot project throughout ukraine, we want ukrainian children returned to ukraine, stayed in ukraine, studied in ukrainian schools and were the world's best specialists in modern technologies. list of winners on the pages of the project levan behind and the public organization all-ukrainian democratic forum. ema statnyk, andriy poyakovsky, espresso tv channel. well, once again i just want

to say that it is a great initiative, and the more schools that involve teachers and receive this help, knowledge, and equipment, it is necessary, the better it will be for our future. now we will talk in different ways topics, both applied and judicially applied, economic with konstantin zhivago, entrepreneur, philanthropist. mr. konstantin, i congratulate you. vasyl, greetings, good evening, this week there was information about the arrest of you in absentia by the higher anti-corruption court, and before coming to this conversation, i would like to ask you about it, please comment , i will then add something about other very interesting decisions in aks about other people, well, it’s just that it somehow doesn’t fit together, but what i want about your story is for you to answer what is happening there happened? vasyl, thank you, and dear audience, good evening, actually, you know, i

would like to comment on this in one single sentence, that both nabu, unfortunately, and sap, and today vax began to live by a double standard, because, well, i i can't even imagine how it is. two months ago, they wrote me a subpoena, according to which i received it in france, signed that i will come to the interrogation in order to conduct... in fact, in these actions, the detectives give their testimony as part of a criminal case, which in my understanding was also opened illegally and there is absolutely no basis for the suspicion that was given to me, it is written on two pages, i can’t even imagine how suspicion can be written on two pages in a high-profile case, why did they accuse me of this at all, but two months ago i signed a summons stating that i would come for interrogation, and imagine the situation, the vax made a decision the day before yesterday about my arrest in absentia,

because i allegedly do not appear at the summons of the investigator, i did not. they don't know where i am and voila, imagine yesterday they came to porizh for the scheduled interrogation, and yesterday i was interrogated with them for 11 hours directly in the french judicial authorities, then i ask, well , if the court, wax, if the same investigators, the same prosecutors write after the day before yesterday that they cannot me to find out, although two months ago a subpoena was signed and a document was signed to which i will come to give evidence and... yesterday they interrogated me for 11 hours in france, well tell me, please, isn't this a double standard when the same investigators, the same the prosecutors and the court and the judge of the first instance vaks, who made such decisions, in my opinion, they are acting according to the law, believe me that the french and judges, and lawyers, and

most importantly the investigators who took part in yesterday's interrogation, they say, that this is impossible in france, because if... this is how both the investigators and the prosecutors behaved, saying the day before yesterday that they could not find the person, and the same prosecutors come to france and the next day interrogate the person, then they are abusing their rights are abused by law, and as my french lawyers and french investigators tell me, they say that in france the hook and the investigating prosecutors got at least five years in prison so that they don't live by double standards. well, of course, in this situation, when i... today i hear publicly both in the press and in the mass media, about the fact that the scandals are happening in naboo, and then they don't want to interrogate some powerful people, and then after that they there are leaks of information about some persons who are suspected there in matters of large-scale construction, etc., and when they do this directly

to me, i know, because i do not know what they do to other persons, well , of course, i can... to this day say and affirm that nabu too , both sap and vax, unfortunately, began to live by double standards. well, by the way, for example, yesterday the higher anti-corruption court lifted house arrest from the ex-official of the ministry of defense, mr. khmelnitsky, who actually signed these purchases where there were 17 eggs, this is a well-known story, even earlier in march of the same year, once again, by the decision of the higher anti-corruption court, oleksandr liev, whom i will leave, was released from syzo. there, in the acquisition of more than 15 billion hryvnias, this is, again, exactly what your colleagues from france, lawyers and employees of the justice authorities said, that they do not understand this, not everyone in ukraine understands everything, but in any -anyway very briefly, your next steps in connection with the fact that this arrest in absentia has been declared, what next, if

again, if i'm ready, if i'm ready answer from lawyers, so that you do not say what is possible. it is not necessary to say yet in due to certain circumstances, there is nothing out of the ordinary or some kind of secret , no one will make any of this, i will act strictly, in accordance with the law, in accordance with ukrainian legislation, we will file an appeal, where the three courts and the appeals chamber the higher anti-corruption court will consider this, i hope that they will not be so blind as to say that the day before yesterday, the same investigating prosecutors, summoning me for questioning... they say that they will find they can't, the next day they show up in france and interrogate me for 11 hours. i hope that the higher anti-corruption court and its appellate chamber will still say white, well, if they say black and white, they have said it many times in the past, i have such examples, believe me, i will not be surprised. yes, well, let's now move on to economic topics, because in

any case, the real economy works in ukraine, and it is necessary to understand what processes are taking place, because economy, again , people get a salary for something are hoping or counting on something, so the national bank, because my colleagues and i are constantly talking about what forecasts and forecasts there are no special ones regarding the exchange rate of the national currency, and the dynamics of the exchange rate, again, should be such that it does not threaten the maintenance of inflation at a moderate level in 204 year, in your opinion, what exchange rate of the dollar should be expected and whether it is realistic to maintain this exchange rate, then what is it now, well, in principle, it is more or less accepted, as far as i understand. vasyl, thank you, this is an important question, but it is important the question has a lot of, let's say, unknowns for us, like an equation with many unknowns, so... because today we don't understand what the growth of the gross domestic product will be, we don't understand what will happen to electricity, how the economy will work, because if the economy does not work, then there will not be that gross

domestic product, namely the main added value, from which value added taxes arise, that is, the vat that we know is famous or very well known, it is one of the main taxes, and if not gross domestic product and value added, then there will be no tax on it, so the government must do everything possible and impossible to work... the economy, to give jobs, to give people wages, to have consumer demand, and most importantly , that when people receive wages, it means that production produces something, it gives the so-called added value, which taxes appear, and taxes are not only the maintenance of our prosecutor's offices, nabu, sap or vax, this is the main thing in primarily the maintenance of our armed forces, because we pledged to our western donors, western partners, that the main thing we will finance. all expenses for the armed forces of ukraine, for our defense, for repelling the aggression of russia, precisely at the expense of our internal taxes. and in this situation , the government, god forbid, that the competent one, because

today, until today we have seen, unfortunately, there is not a lot of competence there, to make it so that we, i'm sorry, have this economy working, in addition to the fact that we we will work, of course, and so that the economy earns, produces this added value and paid taxes with all elements and... local tax communities and rural communities, that is, all this must be financed, children's institutions, medical institutions, infrastructure, housing, communal economy, this is all from the economy, from taxes, there is no economy , there is no tax, all this falls into a coma, as it was in the early 90s, the second unknown factor for us is the amount of expenses that we will bear for the armed forces of ukraine, because we are conducting mobilization, but how much we we know and have heard... this mobilization must be financed, if we take people into the army in order to defend ukraine, defend our state, then we must pay them, pay them in accordance with the laws and

the established salary scales that military personnel receive today , and we know this controversy, which controversy we had three, four, five months ago before the mobilization to the law on mobilization and its entry into force, that it will cost the state 400-500 billion. uah and these are actually huge funds. and so we understand that we we will have to raise taxes to raise this amount. if you raise taxes, you are certainly in this situation, including stifling an economy that is already not doing very well. this is such a delicate balancing mechanism of the economy, so that taxes do not drive the economy into the shadows, and taxes and the lack of electricity do not drive the economy to the point that it will not grow, but will decrease, and that people will run away and go abroad. find a job there and give added value there for germany, the czech republic, poland, hungary, any other country to do it in ukraine. this, believe me, balancing is unknown to many, unknown,

but this balancing should be done by competent people, if we do not have competent people, and today i can tell you what we have brought the economy and many areas of our life to, including financial , then i would be very... very afraid, sincerely really afraid, that one of the means, ultimately , of financing these expenses will simply be the printing of money, which the imf is against, against which, as the national bank of ukraine also states, we agreed with the imf-om as a country that our inflation should be oriented at 5, 5.5% this year, and with regard to the monetary base, printing money, we can print it until was 5.5%, but if the expenses are higher and not... shady people who just started, or from some kind of entertainment, or just started from the street, will start, excuse me , hammering nails with this microscope, then nails, then

not after that let me tell you how it all might end, because we had such examples in the early 90s, when in fact people who had a very, very vague understanding of economic issues began to run the country and print money. crazy money, just really, excuse me, just unreal money in unreal amounts, well, actually , by the way, i also remember the 90s well, coupons, everything in coupons, then coupons, then, well, in one word, remember let's talk about how it is to receive a scholarship in millions of coupons, it was like this, well , actually, we talked about possible inflation, which is currently set at the level of five or so percent and that it should be like that and was kept, but it is worth talking about the income per se, of course. currently, the minimum wage in ukraine is uah 800. in your opinion, why is there no increase, because many things are being increased, including taxes and communal

services, that's understandable. but for some reason there is no talk of raising the minimum wage. vasyl, this is happening for obvious reasons, we are at war, we need to finance the war, we need to finance the costs of the armed forces of ukraine. therefore, the government today, not understanding how the economy will grow, how it will behave with all these problems in electricity, in the supply of other materials and raw materials for production, the government simply does not understand where it can get it from. money to raise the minimum wage, in this situation, it's very unfortunate, it's also unfortunate how we increase, say, value added tax, as a basic tax, because we have to fund the armed forces, or when we increase income tax with you and also finance the armed forces, or even, as we said in many with together with inclusions in many of the inclusions and in many of our meetings that we're even going to have to obligate for-profit businesses to some portion

of the profits after...paying this income tax on the profits to buy those so-called war bonds, we have to fund our defense because if we don't will finance our defense, it is not for me to tell you that there will simply not be any need to talk about any economy, because if we lose territories, lose these subjects and agents of economic economic activity, economic development, then these are losses for us forever, i hope that our losses in donetsk in... in crimea, this is not forever, and we will solve this issue by military and political means and return our territories, not today, but tomorrow, not tomorrow, but the day after tomorrow, and we yes, we have many examples of countries in the world on the map that still solved these issues, but we know with you that everything that was lost in 2014 until 2022, it was no longer part of our economy, it no longer fed ukraine and ukrainians, and it no longer paid any taxes on the added value of the added value that...

was created there, or if it was created, so if the 800 remains, i'm sure only in one case, because the government does not understand how to finance the costs that will potentially increase military spending, and if you ask if this is the right question, i think this is a valid question, the most important thing for us is to win today, not to engage in populism, because you could say that we will raise 8 00 in 10 00 and everyone will have a lot of money, but... but we again we return to the question in point a of the previous question, when you remember the 90s and coupons in millions of pieces and scholarships, which were calculated in millions of rubles. i don't want it, i'm sure that you don't want it, our tv viewers don't want it, and most importantly - the entire population of ukraine doesn't want it. well, despite the fact that the situation is not easy, the economic situation is really simple and prices are rising, and you are rising, taxes, we will now talk about the business test as well,

but despite this, when ... a disaster happened, the enemy struck a terrorist attack on the central children's hospital of ukraine, okhmadyt, where all buildings were damaged, but one building was not is subject to restoration, today there was information from the minister of health, and ukrainians from the last there who donated as much as they could for the restoration of okhmedito and business also donated, the state allocated funds, i know that you, your structures also joined in this, to what extent important, and possible, if we talk about allocation. of funds and that is the social function of business, how important is it and is there an understanding of what to allocate these funds to, so that it is possible to know whether we allocate for something specific there or in general it just goes into some common cauldron, and then they will look at what to spend it on? vasyl, unfortunately today all this is going into the common cauldron, or maybe not unfortunately, we don’t know, believe me, this is actually an impulsive, psychological decision, because

when children suffer and that’s exactly it... there was a terrorist attack , this is no war, this is no aggression, this is no, i’m sorry, there is a military, anti-military confrontation, some missiles, the rest of everything, it’s just, i’m sorry, it’s a real crime, which is in the hands of the russian leadership, which is just here are terrorists like osama bin lad bin laden, they just kill innocent people, in this situation they just kill innocent children, and well , in my understanding, there is no understanding. there is no justification for such actions in any country in the world and in any criminal code of any country in the world, so this requires condemnation from the united nations security council, we cannot do this because russia is in charge there today and it will block all this decision, but all this simply requires that all condemn all people, even in those countries, i sure some...
