220 people's deputies supported the bones in the vote of the verkhovna rada. from servants. but from the european solidarity, he did not receive a single vote, but this does not change anything under the applause of the patrons of zelensky who arrived in the rada kostin entered the new position, ready without hesitation, ready to enter the service in prosecutor's office and dedicate their activities to the ukrainian people and ukraine while in the ukrainian parliament rejoices independents are defeated, including on the gas front nafta gas. he announced a technical default has expired, the deadline for payments to bondholders, while the company said that there were funds in the accounts, but the payments need to be agreed with the cabinet there. permission was not given, however, the reasons were named. but the prime minister is asking again. yes, help the west now, in order to survive the winter in praise of him, the beasts in a row. accepted message from the government of ukraine. to the us government to provide our state with gas lend-lease for a stable

heating season, preparations for the worst winter in our history continue and we are looking for all kinds of tools to be ready allied support for any scenarios. today, naftogaz is one of the two pillars of ukraine's economic stability. in the latest statement , he claims that he will offer eurobond holders a new agreement to defer payments, but no does not give deadlines. anyway. this will be a political decision to be made, but it is unlikely to be an official kiev, experts say, a serious decision to cue without taking it on its own. perhaps it was hmm organized on purpose. and if it does, they may demand an acceleration of the process of disposing of ukraine, they may also demand the repayment of other early payments there, only those that they asked for delay there, that is, the process can simply speed up and, of course, this will hit the rest of the ukrainian economy as a whole, because that or naftogaz. it has been one of the largest e

-payers of e-taxes and levies in the economy. nothing according to the kyiv authorities. they solve more important issues for ordinary people, for example, the supply of weapons, the minister, defense. reznikov wrote that he discussed the results of the ramstein meeting with the head of the pentagon, austin. the united states announced the next package of military assistance to ukraine, talking about four highmors installations, only the west is increasingly dissatisfied with such gifts, which are ultimately found on the black markets. i think, there is a risk of theft. i mean, access to the black market. it exists and we need to know about it, but worry more. how many of them break, how they are used tactically and how can we help them, however. i think that the most important thing is that it seems to zelensky that he is gradually losing on the loss of zelensky plays poroshenko to promote himself on his own fifth channel and demands from russia to unblock all

ukrainian exports, which, by the way, no one has blocked corn. and why are we talking only about grain. and why can't we export ferrous metal, chemical products, sunflower oil and much more. what ensures the state's foreign exchange balance? why do we limit ourselves to wheat and corn in ukraine, a good thing is called his account, but because this is a person who is constantly trying to somehow promote himself, but somehow show himself so that they don’t forget you, we are talking about a grain agreement and where well, an absolute loss ukraine naturally. it's panic panic fear as well president zelensky and his a-a cabinet and , accordingly, poroshenko are also projecting this. as a matter of fact, in their comments , parallel to the break-even reality lives, the kiev elite, while dozens of ukrainian military men die every day at the front, chita zelensky arranges a photo shoot for a glamorous magazine, and

the mayor of the capital looks around kiev from the balcony and slowly drinks champagne with german ministers and the german ambassador what kind of war is there, sparkling according to the schedule anastasia ivanova anna povetieva anna pogonina lead turkish fenerbahce fans chanted the name of vladimir putin at the champions league qualifying stage match against dynamo kiev, the meeting was held in istanbul and the guests scored a goal. and then such a chant followed. sales of new smartphones have fallen in russia according to the data for the second quarter of 2022, this indicator is the lowest over the past 5 years, according to mobile operators, the reason for this is economic factors and seasonality of demand, and some western companies have stopped deliveries

of their products. pottery. russians are spending less money on smartphones sales of new models in the second quarter of the year, the lowest in the last five years, according to technology sellers. such indicators arose immediately due to several reasons, in the second quarter. we really saw a 12% decline in sales of e-e in money and e, on the one hand, this is a manifestation of seasonality, because all previous years of the second quarter it shows a decrease in sales according to experts, russia not for national consumption and is less and less interested in globally promoted brands like apple and samsung take more budget models, however, which in terms of filling are in no way inferior to the giants on the market, such brands that were not heard two years ago. especially given the departure of huawei honor , therefore, the situation at the end of the year will, of course, be completely different than. over the past

few years, it has been on the purchasing preferences of russians, largely influenced by the sanctions apple lost ground due to the fact that our compatriots lost trust in the apple brand closed apple pay for russian users of paid applications, but aloud services. and this, of course, limits people, people are afraid that apple will, in the next step, turn off the devices in russia altogether, according to analysts, the decline in sales was due to the fact that parallel imports did not have time to stabilize in the spring, when the companies announced their withdrawal from the russian market, prices jumped up and, in fact, real deliveries of parallel imports began only in june, the russians watched price fluctuations and were in no hurry to overpay many retailers, retail chains have made prohibitive prices for smartphones. based on this, people simply stopped going to stores in april.
