00:00:00their support, so I don't think that as long as the
00:00:03war continues, this link will somehow
00:00:06be broken, and I hope for that, so in
00:00:10tandem you can move, in principle,
00:00:13you know what else I wanted to ask, in Moldova, up to
00:00:16130,000 Ukrainians live, well, at least this information was
00:00:19voiced by Moldovan Prime Minister Alexandru
00:00:23Montianu, on February 10, at a joint press conference with Yuriy
00:00:26Sverodenko, the former head of the Ukrainian government, 80%.
00:00:40How do Ukrainians and Moldovans coexist?
00:00:43Well, you know, we don't talk much about it, nothing special happens,
00:00:47it's like it is, generally, through Moldova, to use
00:00:50protection in the European Union, almost one and a half
00:00:54million Ukrainians passed through in transit, that is, this country and now, by the way, Moldova continues to be a transit country,
00:00:58many Ukrainians go on vacation or go somewhere else. They use
00:01:01the Chisinau airport, so the integration of Ukrainians in Moldova?
00:01:05President Zelensky is now using the airport, so the integration of Ukrainians
00:01:09in Moldova, do they find work, do they not find work, are there problems, are there no
00:01:12problems, perhaps you have more information about this, please.
00:01:15ласка,
00:01:19Moldovans interact quite well
00:01:22with Ukrainians, I wouldn't say there are any problems here.
00:01:26At the beginning of the war, when in...
00:01:30Moldova had the biggest wave of Ukrainian refugees.
00:01:33Moldova accepted and passed through itself,
00:01:37probably, the largest number
00:01:40of people, if
00:01:43you count with regard to the population of the country
00:01:46itself. Ah, then, of course, Russian
00:01:50propaganda here too,
00:01:54promoted the narrative of such ungrateful Ukrainian
00:01:57refugees. And
00:02:01local pro-Russian politicians, marginal
00:02:04activists, they still used these
00:02:08topics, but I wouldn't say that this was, this was
00:02:12far from the mainstream, I remember very well how in the
00:02:15first days of the invasion,
00:02:19literally tens of thousands of Moldovans got into
00:02:22their cars, went to the border to meet people, someone
00:02:26carried humanitarian aid.
00:02:30Several times
00:02:33the Chisinau authorities asked not to bring any, because the warehouses
00:02:37are full, we can't
00:02:39manage
00:02:41all
00:02:44of this,
00:02:47so they interact quite well, they interact quite well, yes,
00:02:50some people find work here, but
00:02:53still for very many Ukrainians this is still
00:02:57a transit country, a place
00:03:01through which they then get to the European
00:03:03Union. There
00:03:06are people,
00:03:09but there are people who come, come
00:03:12here, there are many of those Ukrainians who lived in Europe
00:03:15for some time, and returned,
00:03:18found,
00:03:21found housing in Moldova, because after all, the country is closer in
00:03:24mentality and home
00:03:27Ukraine
00:03:29is nearby. Thank you very much, well, that's why
00:03:33you know, as they say, if nothing is said, it means everything is fine, more or less, and that's very
00:03:36good actually, that they manage to coexist,
00:03:40Moldova helps, Ukrainians too, I think, they have business and work, they also somehow
00:03:43help Moldova in terms
00:03:47of taxes, thank you very much for joining us, thank you for the comments, Yevheniy
00:03:51Chyban, editor of the independent Moldovan media Must, was with us, there are problems in
00:03:54Moldova, common with Ukraine, of course, and somewhere we try to support each other
00:03:58and move together, by the way. Move together with the support of our partners, who
00:04:02are already members of the European Union, in particular, who will jointly move towards
00:04:05the European Union, as Mr. Chyban said, doing it together
00:04:08is simpler. Yes, and now we will talk with
00:04:12Vyacheslav Likhachov, orientalist, expert
00:04:15of the Center for Civil
00:04:16Liberties,
00:04:19Mr. Vyacheslav, good morning, we greet you, thank you for
00:04:22joining us, good morning, I greet
00:04:25you, yes, well, what, yes, well,
00:04:28let's talk now about where the war between the United
00:04:32States and Iran is
00:04:35at, because all this has
00:04:39a somewhat sinusoidal trajectory, in my opinion,
00:04:42Donald Trump, one of his last
00:04:45messages, the Hormuz Strait will soon be opened,
00:04:48otherwise Iran will face new
00:04:50strikes. This is reported
00:04:54by CNN, quoting the American president,
00:04:57noting that very constructive negotiations are underway with Tehran,
00:05:01but Trump warns that if Iran refuses its obligations,
00:05:05he will resort to strikes again, that is, he, Donald
00:05:08Trump. And if you look at the dry
00:05:11facts, then... literally yesterday information
00:05:14appeared that the
00:05:18US Treasury is lifting
00:05:21some sanctions related to Iran, a number of sanctions
00:05:25against organizations related to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard
00:05:28Corps, in particular, airlines related
00:05:32to the IRGC have been lifted there, in short,
00:05:35what is currently happening in the public
00:05:39sphere and in the sphere, perhaps less visible, but
00:05:43no less important, please.
00:05:46Well, as for sanctions, I just wanted to say right away that
00:05:50this is not a lifting or softening of sanctions against Iran, because
00:05:53it is about Iraqi
00:05:56commercial structures that are connected with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard
00:06:00Corps, but they are located and operate
00:06:04in Iraq, and with Iraq there is a complex
00:06:08dynamic of how it depends on the United
00:06:11States on one hand, and on the other hand, to a large extent the population and
00:06:15accordingly the government that is formed democratically there, it
00:06:19sympathizes and also depends on Iran, therefore
00:06:22this may not directly concern
00:06:25the current course of negotiations directly with
00:06:29Iran, regarding the actual negotiations, we
00:06:32actually, apart from Trump's statements, do not know whether they are being conducted
00:06:35between the United States and Iran, or whether they
00:06:39are being conducted with the help of intermediaries.
00:06:43That is, not in a direct way, in Iraq,
00:06:45at least in recent days and even weeks,
00:06:49the fact of negotiations with the United States is generally denied, what
00:06:53is confirmed in Iran is that Iran is approaching
00:06:56an agreement with Oman, a country on the other side
00:07:00of the Strait of Hormuz, regarding
00:07:03the routes for ships to pass through
00:07:07the Strait of Hormuz and the opening,
00:07:10accordingly.
00:07:15And on this track, there seems to be
00:07:17good progress, that is, one can expect that
00:07:21in the near future, in the coming days, this
00:07:24was already announced for yesterday, probably the details are still
00:07:28being agreed upon, one can
00:07:31expect an announcement about an agreement between Oman and
00:07:34Iran, about the opening of the Strait of Hormuz,
00:07:38the United States is formally not involved there, although certainly
00:07:41Oman has to look to the United States and
00:07:44coordinate with Washington the terms
00:07:48of the opening of the Strait of Hormuz, but in this too it
00:07:51seems that the United States is making
00:07:54concessions, with the information that
00:07:57publicly appears in the press, from the statements of, in particular,
00:08:00Iranian officials, or some anonymous sources
00:08:04who are privy to the course of negotiations, it is about
00:08:08the opening of the Strait of Hormuz on Iranian terms,
00:08:11that is... about one path,
00:08:15or rather, it will be divided into
00:08:18two,
00:08:21two corridors in one direction and in the other direction, in
00:08:24the direction of the Persian Gulf from
00:08:27the side of the Gulf of Oman of the Indian Ocean
00:08:30past the Iranian coast, in the opposite direction from the Persian Gulf to
00:08:34the Indian Ocean along the coast of Oman, that is,
00:08:37this means that Tehran categorically denies that there should be
00:08:41an independent separate completely
00:08:45autonomous path along the Strait of Oman,
00:08:48along the coast of Oman of the Strait of Hormuz,
00:08:52it is about the agreement between Oman and Iran on terms,
00:08:55in particular, Tehran insists that
00:08:59the period of free use of the Strait of Hormuz
00:09:02is over, there was talk that Oman wanted
00:09:05to collect a little less money, Iran wanted to collect a little more money,
00:09:09this will be formalized as some
00:09:12services for security, for navigation,
00:09:16an environmental fee, something
00:09:19like that, but the Strait of Hormuz, if
00:09:23it really opens, if nothing falls through, as it has happened
00:09:26repeatedly, in the coming days, it will open on
00:09:30Iranian terms, Iran will control
00:09:33the Strait of Hormuz and collect fees from all ships, this
00:09:37is actually of all the bad options we currently
00:09:40have, not the worst, world
00:09:44energy markets are already reacting to this with optimism, in
00:09:47recent days the price of oil has gradually begun
00:09:51to decrease in anticipation of the opening of the Strait of Hormuz,
00:09:54if this really happens, it could mean the end
00:09:58of such a crisis in the Persian Gulf that we have observed
00:10:02in the last 5 and a half months, although
00:10:06this will certainly strengthen Iran's regional positions,
00:10:10Iran will emerge from this war victorious, but
00:10:13everything can still fall through, because Tehran can put forward some additional
00:10:16conditions, for example, to the United States regarding
00:10:19the lifting of the naval blockade of the Iranian coast, and
00:10:23then the agreements will again be postponed, world
00:10:27markets will again react by raising oil prices,
00:10:30here nothing can be
00:10:34бути впевненим, що Іран дозволить країнам
00:10:38Європи розмінувати оурмуську протоку в разі, якщо буде домовлено,
00:10:42тобто ну звичайно мінували одні, а розміновувати очевидно за гроші з самого ж
00:10:45Єврпейського союзу самож країни Європейського
00:10:48союзу, на вашу думку, чи це влаштує всі
00:10:52сторони цього конфлікту?
00:10:55Possibly so, possibly so, this is a completely possible
00:10:58configuration, because
00:11:01yes, financially this
00:11:04will be carried out by the European Union, and
00:11:08the European Union will demonstrate its loyalty
00:11:11to the United States and its readiness to help
00:11:14unblock the Strait of Hormuz, Iran in
00:11:18principle can accept this, it can
00:11:21allow European countries, if it doesn't...
00:11:25insist that countries that from its point of view were involved
00:11:29in American aggression, as they say, were not allowed into
00:11:32the Strait of Hormuz, that too is possible for political reasons, but
00:11:36for pragmatic, financial reasons, because Tehran is interested
00:11:40in maintaining the benefits it
00:11:44gained from controlling the Strait of Hormuz, and
00:11:47at the same time weakening the sanctions and
00:11:51international diplomatic pressure, it can take such a
00:11:55step for further improvement of relations with
00:11:58the European Union, and this will again be a certain
00:12:02demonstration that Tehran is carrying out its
00:12:05foreign policy coordination of actions in
00:12:09the region with other players, without looking to the United
00:12:13States, and the United States can in principle also
00:12:16accept this, because the United States, which
00:12:20repeatedly accused European partners of
00:12:23somehow standing aside from solving
00:12:27the crisis in the Persian Gulf, they can provide space
00:12:30for European countries to join
00:12:33in eliminating the consequences of the United States' actions,
00:12:37if we recall what this crisis began with, so in
00:12:40principle such a configuration is possible, but here it is necessary to
00:12:44understand that the more players involved in any
00:12:47agreement, well, negotiations or future
00:12:51agreements in the region, the more players, the
00:12:55harder it will be for them to agree, so this is not
00:12:57you,
00:13:00the realism of such a scenario is also
00:13:03difficult now. A little about oil prices,
00:13:06a very important and
00:13:09security, and economic factor for the world
00:13:13in general. They continue
00:13:16their decline against the backdrop of possible progress
00:13:19in negotiations between the US and Iran,
00:13:22this information literally. the day before yesterday,
00:13:26and here it's actually interesting, this is a question for our
00:13:29Oleksandr Morshchavka, what is happening today in the context
00:13:33of prices, you noted that it's not even completely clear whether
00:13:37these negotiations exist, but we see the sensitivity of the
00:13:41energy market in general and
00:13:43all
00:13:46these price indicators, what are the prospects if
00:13:50Europeans join in unblocking
00:13:53Hormuz and tankers go full speed, as far as possible,
00:13:57and what are the side
00:14:00effects for possibly third parties, we are certainly interested in
00:14:04the Russian Federation, it is important who benefits from the fact that world oil prices
00:14:07are now rising, and there is this constant thing, they fell, they are stably
00:14:11high, but small fluctuations, it's like the end, prices fell, then no, no,
00:14:15not the end, prices rose, and well, that's it, please.
00:14:18Well, if they are actually
00:14:22falling, they are not falling to pre-war levels.
00:14:25They are falling from 90-100 or in
00:14:29May it was up to 120 dollars per barrel of
00:14:32Brent crude, and to
00:14:3570-80, somewhere around 80 now. I
00:14:39last checked yesterday, it was about 80 dollars per
00:14:42barrel, 82 I think for
00:14:46Brent crude, and 75
00:14:49for Urals crude, that is, Russian oil, so they are
00:14:53falling relative to what we had when they
00:14:56jumped at the beginning of the hostilities and remain at such
00:14:59a high level, which is almost twice
00:15:03as high as it was in pre-war
00:15:06times as of January, early
00:15:09February, that is, certainly,
00:15:12oil-exporting countries outside the Persian
00:15:16Gulf, they win, the Arab monarchies of the Persian
00:15:19Gulf, they certainly incur huge losses
00:15:22due to the impossibility of transporting
00:15:25oil, even those countries that, like Saudi
00:15:28Arabia, have other ways of supplying oil, they also
00:15:32suffer from this, there in recent weeks
00:15:35the transportation of oil through the Red Sea
00:15:39has also worsened due to the actions of Iranian allies in Yemen,
00:15:42the Houthis, and Saudi Arabia reduced oil
00:15:46production by 30% in the second quarter, this certainly hits their
00:15:49pockets, other countries that are oil exporters, including
00:15:53the United States, Latin American countries, and of course Russia, they
00:15:57benefit from this, Russia in general, probably is
00:16:00the biggest beneficiary
00:16:03of the crisis in the Persian Gulf, it is worth recalling that in
00:16:07the Russian budget for this year
00:16:10it was planned, if I'm not mistaken, 59
00:16:13dollars per barrel of Russian oil, and at
00:16:17the beginning of the year this seemed to Russia a very optimistic scenario,
00:16:20because de facto it cost less, and taking into account
00:16:23all the discounts at which countries like
00:16:27India or China agreed to buy Russian
00:16:31oil, it was even cheaper, that is, in fact, this crisis in the Persian
00:16:34Gulf, it simply saved this year, unfortunately, the Russian
00:16:38budget. and strengthened Russia's ability
00:16:41to continue full-scale aggression, which is why we
00:16:44in Ukraine, and in the whole world, are interested
00:16:48in resolving the crisis in the Persian Gulf, in ensuring that
00:16:51navigation is normally restored and markets calm down, but we in
00:16:55Ukraine have our own
00:16:56specific
00:16:59opinion and factor that affects
00:17:02us, we are especially interested in ensuring that hostilities are not
00:17:06resumed, this applies to
00:17:09arms markets, in particular, as we know,
00:17:12ammunition for missile defense, and this
00:17:16applies to the Russian budget, if currently
00:17:19the Strait of Hormuz really opens, then prices will not
00:17:22return to pre-war levels, unfortunately, but
00:17:26they will fall significantly further, maybe by
00:17:28even a third,
00:17:32maybe a quarter, something like that, due to
00:17:35the fact that world demand is also decreasing,
00:17:39the Persian Gulf countries, they began to diversify
00:17:43future supply routes,
00:17:46build new or reactivate
00:17:49old oil pipelines that went to
00:17:53the Mediterranean Sea, and
00:17:55build new capacities on the Red Sea in
00:17:58the case of Saudi Arabia, or on the other side of the Strait of Hormuz
00:18:02in the case of Oman, that is, in the long-term
00:18:06perspective, oil prices will fall, but this
00:18:10year is difficult for everyone in terms of oil prices,
00:18:13and therefore for everything, because it's fuel, we understand
00:18:17this from our own pockets around the world, and we certainly
00:18:21too, and this year in this sense will be a very
00:18:24difficult year for everyone, in the
00:18:28future we hope for lower oil prices in
00:18:31the long term, also important for Ukraine is this
00:18:35threat that was, well, at least it was posed. Now it seems
00:18:38it is not yet relevant, the threat of strikes on the territory
00:18:42of Ukraine
00:18:44by Iranian ballistic missiles, after an Iranian tanker that was transporting
00:18:47weapons was hit in the Caspian Sea, well, there was a threat that
00:18:51three missiles could arrive, Iran has missiles in its arsenal that fly up to
00:18:55400 km, and they could reach the territory of Ukraine,
00:18:58there was contact from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
00:19:01of Ukraine, that they contacted Tehran and they
00:19:05said that we are still postponing or abandoning
00:19:08this strike, what is the current situation and is this really a real threat to
00:19:12Ukraine, I would just clarify a bit that
00:19:16it is actually difficult to understand why Iran
00:19:19decided not to escalate for now, there
00:19:22are several versions, the official version is that Ukrainian
00:19:26diplomacy played timely and intensively, and
00:19:30therefore Iran decided not to do this. There is
00:19:33another version, which states
00:19:36that Europeans said
00:19:38"don't touch Ukraine, because it's unknown how Ukraine will react," and
00:19:42this also, it seems to me, is a very defining
00:19:45symptomatic story that we need to realize about ourselves.
00:19:49Yes, a small correction, thank you, Vasyl, for raising this question,
00:19:53I very much ask you, Mr. Vyacheslav, please share
00:19:55your thoughts.
00:19:58Well, I was not present during the conversation between Mr. Sibiri and Mr.
00:20:01Arakchi, so I don't know if Europeans had to
00:20:05hint to Iran about Ukraine's
00:20:07capabilities, or if Ukraine did it directly
00:20:11and immediately, yes, of course, Ukraine could respond
00:20:15and respond precisely where Iran is vulnerable, that is, in the
00:20:19Caspian Sea, Iran, under the conditions of the
00:20:22American naval blockade of the Iranian coast from the side
00:20:25of the Indian Ocean, in recent months has become critically
00:20:29dependent on supplies from Russia, both food
00:20:32and much else, even if we do not
00:20:36touch upon technical cooperation, the fact that
00:20:39Ukraine has the technical capability to strike
00:20:42infrastructure in the Caspian Sea, we have already demonstrated,
00:20:46and perhaps this was a deterrent for
00:20:49Iran, that is... That is, Ukraine is not afraid
00:20:52of escalation and can respond very
00:20:55painfully. However, I would take Tehran's threats
00:20:58in this case
00:21:02seriously, despite the fact that
00:21:05Tehran generally likes loud
00:21:08threats, which he is far from always able
00:21:11to fulfill, but in this case
00:21:14it was important for Tehran to demonstrate
00:21:17a threat, including to
00:21:21which it accuses of helping the United States
00:21:25from a technical,
00:21:27technical point of view in striking
00:21:30Iran, this specifically refers to Bulgaria, which provided a base for
00:21:34American aircraft for in-
00:21:37flight refueling
00:21:39of combat aircraft, it refers to
00:21:43some other European countries that are also theoretically
00:21:46within reach of Iranian missiles, but
00:21:50Iran has not yet demonstrated its
00:21:53political readiness to use weapons against
00:21:56those who indirectly help the United States, such
00:22:00a demonstrative strike, say, on some port
00:22:03of Greater Odesa, could be
00:22:06a signal primarily for Europe, so I took
00:22:10this possibility seriously, as
00:22:13unlikely, but still not zero
00:22:16probability, and it's very good if our diplomacy worked.
00:22:20I don't know if there was
00:22:23some pressure from or if we
00:22:27directly made Iran understand that such a strike would not go
00:22:30unanswered, or if there were some other ways of
00:22:33agreement, it's not that Iranian ballistics were some
00:22:36kind of fundamentally
00:22:40terrible thing for us, unlike European countries, we
00:22:43receive ballistic strikes almost daily, but in
00:22:47conditions of a shortage of
00:22:50ammunition, when every Russian missile reaches its
00:22:53target, even with Russia, North Korea, Iran has not yet been added,
00:22:56we would not need such a thing now, but thank you very much for joining us, thank you for
00:23:00the comments, Vyacheslav Likhachov, orientalist, expert of the Center for Civil
00:23:03Liberties, correspondent of Espreso, correspondent
00:23:06of Slava, who is present at the meeting of the High Anti-Corruption
00:23:10Court, Natalia Sterapravo informed us that the HACC
00:23:13chose a preventive measure, a bail of 6
00:23:16million UAH for the ex-ambassador of Ukraine to the USA, Olha Stefanishyna. She must
00:23:20appear at the call of the detective, prosecutors,
00:23:23court. Stefanishyna herself said that she does not have such funds, 6 million
00:23:26UAH, and will look for them. Yesterday, there was talk that a bail of up to
00:23:3013 million UAH was offered by the prosecution. Yes, but
00:23:34the court made a decision of 6 million UAH. You will find out more news about this
00:23:37throughout this day on our air, our correspondents
00:23:41will work in the courtroom, well, and you will find out more, well, and now
00:23:45more about what the weather will be like in Ukraine today, today should be the hottest day in
00:23:48Ukraine. Well, Natalia, maybe she will refute, maybe she will confirm, Natalka
00:23:52Didenko, let's watch,
00:23:53listen.
00:24:00A weather greeting to everyone, dear viewers,
00:24:04I congratulate everyone on Apple Spas,
00:24:07and precisely in connection with today's holiday,
00:24:10let's talk about these holidays,
00:24:13because we have three Spas holidays, well, according to the
00:24:17new updated church calendar. They
00:24:20fall on August 1 - that was Honey Spas,
00:24:24August 6 - today is Apple Spas, uh,
00:24:27by the way, they used to say: Spas came, prepare, uh,
00:24:31a sheepskin coat for later, uh, August 16 is Nut
00:24:34Spas, well, it's clear that these names are
00:24:38related to vegetables, to
00:24:41harvest, to fruits, bread,
00:24:45honey collection, they consecrate on Macovei,
00:24:48well, it's clear that bouquets... of medicinal herbs, we know,
00:24:52Apple Spas is the main holiday of the cycle, by the way, and
00:24:55they bring apples, pears, plums, fruits to the church, and Nut
00:24:58Spas will be on August 16, they consecrate
00:25:01grain, the first bread of the new harvest,
00:25:04uh, I looked at the
00:25:07signs that exist for Apple
00:25:10Spas, I, frankly speaking, don't really welcome them,
00:25:14so to speak, but nevertheless people are always interested,
00:25:18observed, so I... whatever the weather conditions for Spas, that's what the
00:25:22and cover, well, yellow leaves on the trees before the quick
00:25:25arrival of autumn, well, considering our synoptic
00:25:29situation, such this strong extreme heat, then there are already
00:25:32many yellow leaves, if the rain
00:25:36passes us, the winter will be wet, no rain is
00:25:39expected, a sunny day, the winter period will be
00:25:42frosty and dry, well, we'll check,
00:25:46if a lot of bees are swarming, expect
00:25:49rain, well, I saw bees
00:25:52swarming, but no dew rains are visible yet, so
00:25:55these are folk omens, whoever is interested
00:25:58will find millions of them online, and we
00:26:02will carefully monitor professional weather forecasts, and for now
00:26:05magnetic storms, today there will be slight
00:26:09fluctuations, everything is within the norm, there are not even
00:26:12moderate magnetic storms in the forecast, so we are actually
00:26:15moving on to the weather for today,
00:26:19August 6, and let's see what it will be like
00:26:23throughout Ukraine, well, today
00:26:26is special, because it is actually the peak
00:26:29of this fierce heat already in the west, looking
00:26:33a little ahead I will say that the air temperature will become
00:26:37more comfortable, but today is the hottest day - this is the peak
00:26:40of this heat, I emphasize again, for today in the western regions
00:26:4334-39°,
00:26:46in the northern part of Ukraine 33, 37, 33,
00:26:4938, in some places up to 39, in the eastern
00:26:53part of Ukraine it is also dry, hot, anticyclonic
00:26:56weather 33-37°.
00:27:00In the central part of Ukraine it is also very dry, very hot,
00:27:04you see all these figures in the forecast, no precipitation is expected, in some places up to
00:27:07+40 can be, in the southern part of Ukraine also
00:27:11+32 +38°, very
00:27:14hot, dry weather, well, and in Kyiv today,
00:27:18actually the hottest day, dear Kyiv residents, you only need to last
00:27:22this one day today, well, tomorrow it will still be hot, but still
00:27:25the trend will already be, and by the way, today at the end
00:27:28of the day there is a possibility of a short shower with thunderstorms, but still...
00:27:32throughout the day it is still very hot weather, we go on
00:27:35and look at what the weather will be like throughout Europe today
00:27:39August 6, London +23, wonderful, wonderful
00:27:43air temperature, variable cloudiness, no precipitation, in Paris also
00:27:46dry weather will prevail +27, for Parisians
00:27:50- this is a blessing, in Madrid the heat continues
00:27:53+35°, but sunny, well,
00:27:56that is, very dry weather will persist, as will the heat, is meant,
00:28:00in Rome the same... situation
00:28:0336-37° no precipitation, in Berlin it's
00:28:06much more comfortable +27°
00:28:09no precipitation is expected, in Oslo there is a possibility of a small rain
00:28:13+21° in Prague
00:28:16+35° and variable cloudiness, there is a possibility
00:28:20of a short rain, but still hot dry
00:28:23weather will prevail, that is, it will dominate, well, and in Warsaw today, although
00:28:27without precipitation, the air temperature is still quite
00:28:31high, here... This is the general,
00:28:34closest synoptic picture, I emphasize again that today in Ukraine
00:28:37is the hottest day, August 7,
00:28:40tomorrow the air temperature will start to decrease in the western regions,
00:28:44during August 8-9 in most regions
00:28:47of Ukraine the air temperature will calm down and return to
00:28:51comfort, we just have to wait one more
00:28:54day.
00:29:03We thank Natalka Didenko for the weather forecast, it's easier to plan your
00:29:06life with her, well, we have literally a minute left before
00:29:10saying goodbye to you, and I will use this opportunity to tell
00:29:14you that yesterday Oleksiy Yukov, the founder and head
00:29:17of the Ukrainian volunteer organization Platsdarm, died.
00:29:21It was involved in searching for the remains of fallen military personnel and
00:29:24civilians in the combat zone in eastern Ukraine. From
00:29:28February 2022, when Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine,
00:29:31Yukov, along with six of his colleagues, found over
00:29:35imagine 400 bodies, half of which
00:29:38were soldiers of Putin's army, and this
