a lot of emotions, but eh, emotions are always justified. taras zahorodnya, a political technologist was in touch with us, by the way, taras was talking about taxes. oleksandr morchenko will talk more about the fact that the council decided on taxes and also about the kumirno issue, there will be a separate one, well, we will come back, but no, but now about what oleksandr morchevka will talk about, i know, but i, like you, do not know what serhiy rudenko will talk about at 20:00 in the verdict program, let's ask serhiy. and good evening, please. good evening, vasyl, after such an expressive speech by the previous expert, it is very difficult to explain what i will talk about, because i listened directly. so, today we have a two-hour verdict starting at 20:00, in the first part of our program there will be three experts: yevhen dyky, a veteran of the russian-ukrainian war, political scientist oleksan and executive director of the institute of world politics yevhen magda, we will talk about the tragic events that

were in poltava today, unfortunately, more than 50 people who were in military military educational institution, details will be given during the program, who is to blame for this, there are no conclusions yet, there is the reaction of the president of ukraine, and of course, most of our program we will... discuss the situation that is developing now not only in poltava, but in general in all the cities of ukraine, kharkiv, sumy, kyiv, in the last few days, massive rocket and drone attacks on these cities, and children's homes, civilian homes, and playgrounds are being searched everywhere, in a word, what is this connected with? intensification of shelling by russians in civilian cities, and why exactly. it is

during this period that it unfolds, of course, the situation in kurshchyna, the situation in poltava, pokrovsky, give me the direction, and let's also talk about putin's visit to mongolia, it is the first country that ratified and signed the rome statute and operates within the framework of the international criminal court and fulfills all the decisions of the international criminal court it should have fulfilled, but mongolia, despite all the obligations it... took before the international community, did not arrest putin, putin behaved in mongolia as a host, well, the most important conclusion we can draw is that, in principle, putin is destroying not only the system that existed after the second world war in the whole world and on the entire planet earth, but is also now destroying the international legal framework and international law. field, since he is a war

criminal, this is certified by the international criminal court, he is now trying to prove by his actions that absolutely all these warrants and efforts of the international criminal court to bring him to justice have no legal consequences for him, although mongolia is mongolia and other countries are other countries. in a word, let's talk about all this, plus dismissals and... appointments in the government have already been announced positions, future positions that will be, which will fall under personnel rotation, this was talked about in political circles as early as april 24, and the president zelenskyi has repeatedly stated that it is necessary to carry out personnel rotations in the government, but these personnel rotations should take place tomorrow, that is, according to my calculations, up to five ministers should be fired tomorrow and... five

ministers will be appointed the day after tomorrow, david arkhamia, one of the leaders of the servant of the people faction, has already said about it, the details of how this changes the configuration of forces in the cabinet of ministers, although it sounds rather strange and, let's say, maybe from a certain fate of irony, because staff rotations under the condition of monopolies, they still lead to the fact that zelensky manages this entire monopolies. and 5-6 of his managers, about whether the current personnel rotations can change this situation, or why they are being made, the logic of these personnel rotations, we we will already ask our guests who will be with us at 9:15 p.m., they are people's deputies of ukraine oleksandr merezhko, andriy osachuk and rostyslav pavlenko. we will also talk about how the international legal field is changing after putin's visit to mongolia. and about taxes,

oleksandr morshchevka will talk about taxes today, he will consider in more detail the issue of how the government sees an increase of 550.10 billion hryvnias, and we will talk about the political consequences of those taxes, the decision to increase taxes, today in the first reading of the bill did not pass in the verkhovna rada of ukraine, but the idea of ​​increasing taxes was and remains in the government and in the verkhovna rada of ukraine. all about this in the second part of our program, we start in 25 minutes, exactly at 20:00 we will be on the air, big air. the village of winter continues, vasyl, you have a word. thank you very much, sergey, so we are looking forward to the verdict program, which starts at 20.00. well, serhii and i have already announced oleksandr morchivka and money during the war, ready, ready for the air. oleksandr, good evening, you have a word. vasyl, i welcome the audience. so, indeed, the topic

of taxes is the top topic of today, and the imf, i'm sure, is also monitoring the tax reform, because the fund has started a mission to work in ukraine. i will talk about this in detail in a moment. this is a column about money during the war. i am oleksandr morshchevka, with you. therefore, the international monetary fund has started the fifth revision of the cooperation program for ukraine. this was announced by the head of our government, denys shmyhal. the mission is currently analyzing the implementation of reforms and the implementation of all structural beacons of the fund, i.e. implementation such a home. tasks from international partners. progress in this direction has already been noted, in particular, it monitors macro-financial stability, macroeconomic growth, and also the implementation of the euraine facility program in the amount of 50 billion euros. the imf also assigns a separate issue

to the confiscation of frozen russian assets that should benefit our state. according to the results of the mission, there is a chance to receive another one in september. share of the loan, we are talking about a little more than a billion dollars. the verkhovna rada supported it in the first reading draft law, which provides for an increase in spending on security and defense by more than 500 billion hryvnias. the head of the budget committee of the parliament, roksalana pidlas, explained that there will be various sources of income to collect this amount, in particular, the reduction of maintenance and repayment expenses. of the state debt, they will additionally place bonds of the domestic state loan, they are also trying to make a bet on fees and taxes, in particular the collection of excise tax rates on tobacco and alcohol, they are also going to, as

we talked about earlier, reduce state programs, in particular, a certain share will be taken from the program for the development of the defense-industrial complex, and they are also going to cut the social security budget. initiatives in the amount of almost uah 9 billion, but the ministry of social policy assures that such a reduction in expenses will not have an impact on the support of vulnerable groups and communities, well, i don't know, let's see what exactly will be stopped, which initiatives will be stopped to save money , let's listen to the direct speech of the people's representatives. the faction will not vote, as our demand has been from the very beginning that we first we are voting on the reform of the customs, we are putting order there, where from 50 to 100 billion a year are lost to smuggling, after that we can talk about raising taxes, according to the agenda, the situation is reversed, first

taxes, then customs reform, so we wish the ministry of finance good luck in this difficult process, the draft law was adopted in the first reading, this draft law... provided for the accumulation of uah 30 billion for payments to our military personnel at the expense of an equal increase in the military levy for all citizens of ukraine by 3.5% of all income, which citizens of ukraine receive, as well as the termination of those benefits that some categories of citizens received, regarding the payment of military service. assembly, today is really a dark day in our parliament, the verkhovna rada did not show enough consciousness to support such an unpopular but necessary decision for victory, and today we really made

putin happy, who is probably inside the walls of the parliament, no matter how it sounds , celebrates the victory. these are the words... you people's deputies commented on the failure of the vote, in particular regarding increase in taxes, they expected to receive approximately uah 30 billion, but we see, it really is... such a busy day was in the parliament today, an increase in spending on security and defense was approved, and tax revenues have been postponed for the time being, and discussions on this matter continue, well if we talk in detail about the progress of the tax reform, here are a few interesting theses: the authorities decided not to introduce a military levy of 1% of business income, which was planned precisely as part of the tax innovations. this was reported by danylo gitmantsev, the head of the parliamentary committee on finance and customs policy. this norm is solely due to

strong opposition from experts and the business environment. the fiscal effect of this levy could amount to uah 48.5 billion this year alone, but the introduction of the turnover tax, which will be paid by entrepreneurs, well, according to danylo gitmantsev, has a cascading effect, that is, at every stage of the circulation of goods from the producer to the final consumer. an additional tax will be paid, which can reach 3% instead of the planned one percent, well, we'll see, i don't know, we'll to see to what extent the sales tax will also be supported by the people's representatives, but the deputies refused to introduce a tax on international parcels worth up to €150. but this question is still said to be debatable. the initiative should protect the national one. producer and trade networks, although potential annual revenues from the industry

are estimated at 8 billion hryvnias. well, they could also receive budget revenues from these revenues. the cabinet proposed lowering the tax-free threshold to €45 per parcel, but the situation is difficult in the industry. large companies, for example, such as intertop, modnak and rozetka plan to leave the market by the end of next year due to competition with international companies. they directly benefit from tax relief, but if we introduce such a tax on parcels, then our brands can really work at a loss. well, let's move on, well, if we talk about entrepreneurs, an interesting figure like this appeared from the open data service open databot, so every third fop is closed in the first year of operation, since the beginning of the year it has been registered. 1930 somewhere over 19,300 new fops, and this really

exceeds the figure before the full-scale invasion, but mostly business activity is now in central ukraine, in kyiv, small businesses are already opening less noticeably, in the ivano-frankivsk region, and it is interesting that women mostly start their own businesses. analysts say. let's go further. ukrainians will be without electricity for 10 or even 14 hours a day during severe frosts in winter, oleksandr kharchenko, director of the energy research center, said. he says that if the winter is warm, then there will be no electricity. consumers will be a few hours at most. but a negative scenario is expected if the enemy starts regularly striking nuclear power plants. in this case, the electrician. it may not be at all for almost two days, such a disappointing forecast, let’s

listen to the direct language, unfortunately, in winter, no matter what we do, if there is a frost of -10-15°, then the limitation of 10-14 hours a day is inevitable, i.e. they are not inevitable, but it will not be possible to bypass them, no matter how hard energy companies try, such restrictions, unfortunately, in conditions of frost, especially frost. more than one week, a there for two or three weeks in a row, unfortunately, they will almost certainly be. more than 50 km of highways in the lviv region were renovated, the border road between the ravarusk, grebenne and ughryniv dolgobychuv checkpoints was repaired. our journalists will tell you why this section of the route was chosen and how the new roof will affect the development of local communities and businesses, let's watch. deep potholes, puddles in pits and... broken asphalt, this was the border road chervonograd-ravaruska before the renovation. this highway

connects two checkpoints points between ukraine and poland. repair work began in the spring of 2021 and was completed in july this year, says oleg bereza, head of the agency for reconstruction and development of infrastructure in the lviv region. with the opening of this road , travel time is significantly saved, let's say, if earlier. a person who was returning from volyn or from chervonograd to ravoruska had to go from zhovkva to ravyruska first, that is, respectively. about 100 km, so now it is 52 km of a good, new, high-quality, newest road, you can say, today in the lviv region, in ukraine, the road that allows you to significantly save up to 30 km, the road was built with loan funds from the polish government, the capital repair of the route cost

€42 million. why exactly were these objects chosen, yes, because they are located... on the border with the poles, respectively, and they are interested in the fact that their checkpoints also work mobile, so that queues are not created, respectively the opportunity to get there quickly, a tender for the repair of the border road was held in in 2017, with the help of four candidates , the polish company drochbut won, this contracting company was hired under four contracts at once, within the framework of... the development of border road infrastructure on the approaches to the ukrainian-polish border. here we carried out capital repairs, leveling, removal of the old surface, made a new construction of the road, 11 bridges, engineering facilities. in the settlements, the lighting is new, it is very modern. we also worked with local self-government, with

rivers, with belzem, village councils that exist near these roads. according to the quality of work at the facility. there lived a consulting engineer for technical supervision, for the first time in ukraine a road was built according to the european principle: design-build. if, for example, this or that material was used, it means a technological map of the use of this material, how it should have been used correctly, and then the acts for the performance of the work were signed, in polish it is invoices, and they were submitted to the highway service, even then it was called that , and then only with our permission they had the right... to give on financing for approval in kyiv. the repaired road runs through the communities of ravaruska and beuska, high-quality transport connections help to attract investments to the border towns, says oksana bereza, head of the belska community. and in general , this is the main economic artery for the community, because we already see interest, potential

investors, entrepreneurs who are interested in some land plots for gas station commerce. over the past four years, the agency for the restoration and development of infrastructure in the lviv region successfully completed four international projects with credit funds, also repaired the yavoriv hrushiv, smilnytsia-khiriv and nazhankovichi sambir border highways. kateryna oliynyk, volodymyr studenny, espresso tv channel. as you can see, these are really investments in small communities that run around this road. but the main thing, i am sure, is the prospect for the agricultural sector, because ukraine continues to develop such overland export routes, in particular after the harvest, such export potential should grow, and i am sure that grain will to quickly and qualitatively cover the road to

foreign customers. i will finish my column on this, a big broadcast is going on, there will be more, watch us. thanks to oleksandr morshivka for the information about money, now we move on to cultural news, and let's not forget that today we are in a three-day zhylobalo in poltava region, 51 people died as of now after the enemy rocket attack in the morning on poltava, we remember this and understand that we sympathize and live with this bull, which today... the whole of ukraine is living, well, not we forget about those who died at the front, who , unfortunately, also die every day in our wars, so , well, we continue to talk about what happened, and here is part of cultural information, about the culture of information, a beautiful story about revenge, the french film count count is released montecristo, this tape has already been praised by critics, critics and viewers, what

exactly it was praised for, lina chuchenina will tell us and... we will ask if lina actually praised it, watched it, you have a word, good evening, please, good evening vasyl, good evening to our viewers, i can't say anything yet, because i watched only 15:20 minutes, but i will already say that one of the main features of the ukrainian adaptation of this film is that volodymyr dantes voiced demon dantes, i'll tell you more in a minute. so, volodymyr dantes, as a star of our show business. and comedy, he was invited to voice the main character of this film, edmond dantes, who is unjustly convicted by the court, and who must sit, serve a life

sentence, but escapes from prison, becomes rich and begins the process of taking revenge on those people who did this to him. i still can't really appreciate the acting talents of volodymyr dantes. still, he treated himself quite ironically at the presentation, said that natalka denysenko, who also worked with him, voiced the main character, she came somewhere and voiced everything in half an hour, as she herself said, and volodymyr had already been working for about a month over all this, and therefore it is clear, but i will remind you, we have such a tendency, in relation to the films of various people, we attract from the stars of show business, with the hope that these from the stars will bring... the audience to the cinema, and in general they praise this film for its spectacle, this is, first of all, for the fact that this tape, but now our child wants to fit into

the frame, and she is also praised for the fact that she is like that beautiful, in general, i saw just such reviews, if you look at different collections on different review aggregators, then there are almost eight. out of 10 they give, or nine out of 10, that is, these are very high marks, let's watch a passage with you. who are you i am the count of monte cristo. there is time, you need to prepare properly. to what? to take revenge? finally, dear, meet me, this is the count of montecristo. albert, what do you know about him? and, the performer of the main

role piernine, he just received such a challenge in his acting, he had to change his appearance, and his appearance was changed on the one hand by make-up artists, they said that he sat on make-up for several hours at a time, four or five hours, because he absolutely needed it. to change his appearance, but he also participated in all this, because he had to lose a lot of weight for the period of filming, when his character was filmed in prison, he was very demolished, therefore , accordingly, the hero had to lose a few kilograms, and in general, how the distributors position this film, it is a french film, and it received very good reviews even at the kantian film festival, but at the same time, this film is released and... in russia, i also want to remind you that france exports a lot of films to the russian market and earns very well now, as well as many

european countries, after the american majors left the russian market, this market became very popular namely the manufacturers of european cinema, so usually, when you see a good european film in our box office, it will most likely be in the box office in russia, and... as for how this film is actually positioned in the ukrainian box office, to what extent i could understand, it is positioned as such escapism, that is, it is as much as three hours of such beauty, the opportunity to distract yourself from all the disturbing news, and at least for the 15-20 minutes that i watched, it seemed to me that it was really so, because in general, the count of montecristo - this is one of the most famous stories, this is a story that received a lot of adaptations, it is also... a story about hatred, and this feeling is also very close to us, now with you, on which we are reflecting, and i think we can even argue with the conclusions of dumas, who

wrote this book, who created this story, well , that's it, i say goodbye and i'm sure i 'll run this movie, maybe i'll be able to watch it. and i also love beautiful costumed historical films, but i haven’t watched a thriller yet, i have to watch monte cristo, but i don’t have time, but who has time, of course, as someone very well wrote today, that concerts, all these events, well , at least keep the mental level at a level, but we see that the enemy is constantly trying to destroy our mental health, let's take care of ourselves, take care of each other and move on, i run for the heroes of prykarpattia until... read the seventh all-ukrainian race: i honor the soldiers, i run for the heroes of ukraine. the event is timed to commemorate the defenders of ukraine. more than my

carpathian colleagues. the families of the victims, their friends, military personnel, volunteers and those who care came to take part in the race. townspeople the participants want to emphasize that the hero's feat is not in vain, they remember it and support those who lost their loved ones. juliana will run with her son, she lost her husband in the war. this year, too, we are taking part in our race, because this is support, in part, for us, for our families, because we understand that this feat of theirs is very important. they gave and everything they had, they gave for their lives. participants of the race covered two distances, children 100 meters, adults 1200 meters, each of them ran in memory of a certain hero. we support these promotions, because every promotion is a memory of our heroes, it is very important, a book of memory, rulers at school, mentions in educational hours, festivals of memory, and today's slaughter, we also came as a whole family, well...

there is no other son of orest there, he is in service today, the enemy hit poltava with two ballistic missiles, if my colleagues tell me, maybe the information has changed, i would not like it very much, well, at the very beginning of the program there was information about the 51st dead, and more than 200 wounded, work, search and rescue work in poltava three are ongoing, and this information will be tracked by my colleague, my colleague serhiy rudenko after 20:00 on the verdict program at 20:00, and ... so if you stay with espresso, you will know what's going on. well, now i will call you to join our, our gathering. the spresso tv channel and the vesna charitable fund continue fundraising for the purchase of modern drones and electronic warfare radio systems for the heroic brigades, the third assault brigade, the 110th and 47th mechanized brigades of the armed forces of ukraine. defenders in the donetsk direction every day deter enemy attacks, defend our
