mechanism for promoting the interests of foreign states is the assistance of the international monetary fund of the imfd bank . june perkings will say this better than me, and his speech in one of our talks. listen, we find a country with a lot of resources, for example, oil and we lend a large amount on behalf of the world bank or one of its organizations. actually money. never come to this country. they go to our big corporation to build infrastructure in this country powerful factories. industrial factory. all of them enrich only a few rich people in this country and our corporation most people do not even feel the presence of this money, but these people the whole country will be left with a huge debt so huge.

inflation picture, it is softening back last week on my show and i had the head of the international monetary fund, the imftive impact of higher interest rates typically has a lag on the labour market, it takes time for the uninitiated, it takes time to feed through the pipeline. my expertise is recruitment, the fact is when you have a lack of supply chain and people, you end up any situation where if copies want to continue to grow, they have to pay only don't have that choice. we saw a softening in the technology sector. pretty big! i think is more a correction, technology has been hit, it is right sizing, if i think about my view on this would be nick three years, no question that technology, digitalisation, transformation will continue to be where the heart of a lot of hiring still exist. talking of those lay—offs, notjust tech, we have seen recently big tech firms and also big banks, goldman sachs to name one, laying off thousands. do you think that's a sign of things to come? others will follow suit? i'm not so sure. we are definitely incautious temperatures at the moment, but... the big central bank

mechanism for promoting the interests of foreign states is the assistance of the international monetary fund of the imf and the world bank . look, we 're in a country with a lot of resources, like oil, and we're lending a lot of money on behalf of the world bank or one of its organizations. actually money. never come to this country. they go to our big corporation to build infrastructure in this country powerful factories. industrial factory. everyone does not enrich only a few rich people in this country and our corporation most people do not even feel the presence of this money, but these people will leave the whole country with a huge debt. so huge that he can not pay it at some point. we economic killers come back and say listen, you owe us money you can't pay your debts. so sell oil cheap our country. allow us to build a military base in your country. send your troops. to help our enemy somewhere or support us in the un, privatize your electric companies along with the water and sewer system and sell them to us corporations or other international corporations so there is a whole, fast-growing syst

evgeny mentioned the international monetary fund. countries of the european union, and the imf somehow, was not there. for the first time, it was on the first line. yes, on the first line of our partners, aid was provided. as far as i understand, it is actually in the amount that we returned to the fund, that is, in addition. we did not receive anything. can we count on loans from the international monetary fund this year, and in general, what is the state of our cooperation? that's how i think this year we can count on funds from the international monetary fund. eh are not necessary eh, the fact is, but cooperation - the imf is necessary. the fact is that eh, western partners such as the european union, the united states, in principle, have already made such serious promises regarding the financing of the eh budget deficit of ukraine in this year and in in principle, these funds are sufficient and the attraction of additional financing from the imf is, well, let's say it is uncertain at the same time for the 24th year, next year we have to think about it, the funding source of funding

already predicted that this is only the way to specific financing from the imf and the donor countries of the international monetary fund we will follow this by following the news of the economy during the war . vasyl zima look at us , let's listen to people who suffer from rheumatism and arthrosis of the joints, it's so piercing, it's impossible to get used to it, it doesn't allow you to move. i've tried everything. and at the pharmacy, i bought a yellow dolgit cream. it's for pain in rheumatism, that is, it relieves pain, reduces swelling and improves joint mobility. dolgit is the only one. yellow cream for pain in the joints and back , cinema, television, sports, music, education, free people have a choice, choose what you want on megogo, we continue and there is a new appointment, ambiguous, to be honest, the position is very important in the future mustafa nayem headed the newly created agency for the restoration of the infrastructure of ukraine, a globally relevant decision was adopted by the cabinet of ministers, i note that this is a new institution created by government officials on the basis of the leadership

world bank of the international monetary fund is quite pessimistic . they see the problems in china and they see the problems directly and this war and so on. therefore, after all, the imf bank, the economy will of course grow, but they have accordingly worsened the pace compared to what they did before, and regarding cooperation with the international monetary fund therefore, at the moment, a monitoring mission is working, and based on the results of the monitoring mission, it will be determined which program of support for ukraine a-a will be accepted, that is, there is an expansion of funding accordingly, which makes it possible to accept it there more promptly certain solutions are already operationally there, well , for us, i don't know which one is better in principle, that is, one program requires reforms, and it is good that it would be good if just such a demand stood on the other side, if we also need money, if we consider that after all, the international monetary fund is an organization that gives money to support the balance of payments for the stability of currencies . in my opinion, we don't really need such support at the moment, and we need it if the in

from the international monetary fund but i will say an unpopular opinion, i believe that these funds in in the 23rd year, ukraine does not need uh, the fact is that, but cooperation with the imf is necessary, the fact is that uh, western partners such as the european union and the united states, in principle, have already made such serious promises regarding financing the deficit of the budget of ukraine this year and in principle these funds are sufficient and the attraction of additional financing from the imf is, well, let's say so uncertain at the same time for the 24th year next year we have to think about there is no source of funding for it yet it is understandable that it would be more national for the ministry of finance to delay not taking money from the ministry of finance now, but to count on these funds in the next year, while the very cooperation with the imf in the implementation of all these mentioned beacons is a signal to the owners themselves donor countries that we are moving in the right direction, that is, without such a kind of institution that checks the creditworthiness of ukraine , reliability and as a partner, but it costs. year of support of ukrain
