00:00:00alarms, or has everyone already figured it out, and
00:00:03what needs to be improved, in your
00:00:04opinion?
00:00:08Well, how can I tell you, there
00:00:12are statements from Mayor Vitali Klitschko,
00:00:15there are messages in the Telegram channel
00:00:18of Prime Minister Serhiy Koretsky, but
00:00:22actually, regulatory documents, as of
00:00:25yesterday, I haven't found
00:00:28any regulatory documents. It's clear
00:00:32that there are two levels
00:00:35of threats, but, well,
00:00:39it would be logical that
00:00:41higher-level threats would
00:00:45concern everyone, and yellow-level
00:00:49threats would only concern those
00:00:53enterprises, institutions where
00:00:55there is a large concentration of people. That's why,
00:00:59because if there's a small dental clinic
00:01:02where two or three
00:01:06people are sitting in a queue
00:01:09and one is sitting in a chair,
00:01:12to arrange for them to
00:01:16go to the basement and all that, and
00:01:19moreover, in a mandatory manner, well, that's
00:01:22not very logical, in my opinion,
00:01:26firstly, and secondly, it's simply impossible
00:01:30to control. And if there are any
00:01:34regulations that are impossible to control,
00:01:37then people simply
00:01:40ignore them. So, if
00:01:43there are new rules of conduct during
00:01:46air raids, then there must be control
00:01:50over their adherence to these rules, and there must
00:01:54be punishment. Otherwise, it's
00:01:56just some empty
00:02:00words and nothing more.
00:02:03And people, it's clear, have not yet
00:02:07adapted to the new changes, and
00:02:11this,
00:02:14unfortunately, the authorities are not doing enough. Besides
00:02:17announcing two levels of alarms, obviously,
00:02:21some more detailed
00:02:24explanatory measures
00:02:26and still, as
00:02:30I said, there should be a regulatory framework, because without
00:02:33it, all these are good intentions. Well,
00:02:37is this a regulatory framework that the Kyiv City State Administration should approve,
00:02:41or should it be an initiative of the government itself, which is handed down from above, in your
00:02:45opinion?
00:02:47Well, you see, the government's initiatives are
00:02:51too general. I
00:02:53believe that we need to transfer maximum powers to
00:02:57local areas so that it's not just... The MD
00:03:00is actually in Kyiv. Security is handled by
00:03:04Kyiv Radio Defense, which
00:03:08includes the city
00:03:10administration, the military administration, and
00:03:13representatives of the State Emergency Service.
00:03:17This is the body that makes decisions regarding
00:03:20security. This is on one hand. On the other
00:03:24hand, if the authorities cannot ensure,
00:03:26well,
00:03:29at least, let's say,
00:03:32ensure complete safety for citizens, then
00:03:35citizens should be given
00:03:38the opportunity to decide for themselves, to take
00:03:41measures, how to act.
00:03:45Well, there are many initiatives, for example, Mr.
00:03:48Koretsky, the Prime Minister, said that it is necessary
00:03:51to control the cost of taxi services during
00:03:54air raids, but this is absolutely
00:03:58fantastic, it's impossible to control
00:04:01thousands of taxi cars that
00:04:04operate in Kyiv and
00:04:07monitor their prices. In the best case,
00:04:11if you impose control on them, then the taxis
00:04:15will simply declare an Italian
00:04:18strike, meaning they won't work, they won't
00:04:21drive at all. Mr. Koretsky, he came from business, he
00:04:25should understand that such non-market methods simply
00:04:28don't work like that.
00:04:32Well, you see, he came from Naftogaz,
00:04:36where there's a huge staff, huge
00:04:39money, all his subordinates
00:04:41depend on his will.
00:04:44So he thinks that he will move
00:04:48his finger and everything will be as
00:04:51he moved it. Okay, with taxis, let's leave that story,
00:04:55but the idea itself, how to provide for
00:04:59people who don't have... the opportunity, for example, don't have their
00:05:02own cars, how to ensure their movement, when those
00:05:05alarms ended, I understand, this narrow bottleneck
00:05:09appears, when everyone literally goes out, goes to... to some
00:05:12tram stops, hypothetically speaking, which resume movement, and here it's impossible
00:05:16to get on, it's simply impossible to get on public
00:05:19transport. Well, I might say some
00:05:23blasphemous things, but if
00:05:26public transport is allowed to move across bridges,
00:05:30there are two critical bridges, namely the Podilsko-Voskresenskyi and
00:05:34the Southern Bridge. If buses and
00:05:37cars are allowed to move
00:05:39there, then I don't see much point
00:05:42in not allowing metro movement. In the end,
00:05:46the risk will be the same. Obviously, some
00:05:50measures should be taken to generally
00:05:52ensure
00:05:55safe passage across bridges. Perhaps
00:05:59the metro line needs to be somehow
00:06:02protected with drone nets, or
00:06:05non-transparent screens should be installed along this line.
00:06:09After all, we know that Russians...
00:06:12protect the Crimean bridge with smoke
00:06:15screens. Perhaps we also need
00:06:19to simply and trivially
00:06:21protect our bridges with smoke
00:06:25screens. So, here we need
00:06:29non-standard new approaches, but
00:06:32it seems to me that the problem is that no one, everyone is afraid to take
00:06:35the initiative so as not to be responsible for any consequences. That's
00:06:39the impression I have now, but I also wanted to ask about something else,
00:06:43and that is this story with, what's it called,
00:06:46the University of Intellectual Property, which is somehow connected with
00:06:50Mr. Kivalo, by the way, this story today is already
00:06:52there,
00:06:54calculate, yes, Mr. Calculate, yes,
00:06:58we are known, well, well, you see,
00:07:01this means that society is not
00:07:05ready for new realities.
00:07:07If the leadership are seemingly intelligent people,
00:07:10educated, experienced, they
00:07:13have passed a long life path, if
00:07:17they allow themselves such blunders, this
00:07:20means that they simply do not realize
00:07:24the danger
00:07:26of the situation. That no one could
00:07:29say that this is simply dangerous. This all happened during an air
00:07:33raid, and this is not a simple air raid. Today there is ballistics,
00:07:36Zircon, reactive drones, whatever
00:07:39you want.
00:07:41Excuse me, but we don't have such a regulatory
00:07:45body. That's why I'm talking
00:07:48about regulatory acts. If the Cabinet of Ministers
00:07:51assigned to the national police the duty to control
00:07:55public events, to interrupt, to fine,
00:07:58then a whole regulatory framework
00:08:01is needed to
00:08:04force people, leaders,
00:08:07officials, to act in a certain way. But now, well,
00:08:11they gathered, and... they bear no responsibility, except
00:08:14moral. And that's not
00:08:17right, it seems, it seems that after five years of war,
00:08:21this time is finally coming, to gather such a regulatory framework. Thank you
00:08:25for the conversation. Oleksandr Serhiienko was the director of the Analytical Research
00:08:28Center, Institute of the City. Five people were
00:08:31injured as a result of enemy shelling by Russians, three
00:08:35medics hospitalized. The enemy hit a multi-story building in Kyiv, in
00:08:39Darnytskyi district. The hit occurred on the 11th
00:08:42and 12th floors, causing a fire and destruction. All
00:08:46relevant services are working at the scene, reports Mayor
00:08:50Vitali Klitschko. Meanwhile, rescuers extinguished
00:08:54all fires that arose due to enemy night attacks on
00:08:57Kyiv. As a result of hits in Darnytskyi and
00:09:00Holosiivskyi districts, trucks and a garage caught fire,
00:09:04and a two-story residential
00:09:07building was burning at another location. And in Solomianskyi
00:09:11district, which suffered the most from enemy shelling yesterday, our correspondent
00:09:14Maksym Kulyk is currently present. Maksym, I greet you, and
00:09:18please tell us about the consequences
00:09:22and about how the debris clearing
00:09:24is currently ongoing.
00:09:31Hello Iryna, hello viewers, we are actually currently
00:09:34going to Darnytskyi district to the site of the attack,
00:09:38but for now we are still in Solomianskyi
00:09:41district. where yesterday the Russians
00:09:45struck twice
00:09:48with North Korean ballistic
00:09:50missiles.
00:09:54Now we can hear a comment
00:09:57from a resident of the affected
00:09:59building.
00:10:03It was a flight, they bombed it there, the rocket flew, smashed
00:10:07windows, smashed doors, smashed everything,
00:10:10ruined furniture. Well, in short, the premises
00:10:14are uninhabitable. If I'm not mistaken,
00:10:17two
00:10:20strikes happened, two, one here at the Varus
00:10:24store. And the other one hit the warehouses there.
00:10:27Two rockets flew. We filed a statement, but
00:10:31whether there will be financial help
00:10:34or not, well, yesterday volunteers
00:10:37came and these local workers
00:10:40cut plywood to board up
00:10:44the windows, at least temporarily,
00:10:47not permanently, but
00:10:48yes.
00:10:56A day has passed, the smell of burning is still
00:10:59in the air, there are almost no people around, and
00:11:03rescuers continue their work. Communal workers
00:11:07are also working here, they are
00:11:09cleaning up fragments of glass and other debris
00:11:13from the damaged building.
00:11:17The crater from the rocket damaged the water
00:11:20pipes, currently nearby houses do
00:11:24not have water supply. Also, the
00:11:26street
00:11:28is flooded. Yes, also
00:11:32significant damage was sustained by the store behind
00:11:35me and the children's
00:11:38playground,
00:11:40children's slides
00:11:42were damaged.
00:11:46I also want to remind you that
00:11:49as a result of yesterday's attack, five people died in
00:11:52Kyiv and 23 people
00:11:55were injured. So,
00:11:59colleague, I hand the floor over to you. Thank you, this
00:12:02was Maksym Kulyk, from Kyiv, Solomyanskyi district,
00:12:05which suffered the most from enemy shelling yesterday. I only have
00:12:09to add regarding the situation in Kyiv, that the
00:12:13Kyiv City Military Administration has just announced
00:12:16that the number of casualties in Darnytskyi district has risen to six.
00:12:19Transferring frozen Russian assets to Ukraine,
00:12:23Kyiv proposes again. Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Georgiy Tykhyy, stated that
00:12:27the responsibility for such a decision should be shared by all EU
00:12:30countries. According to him, Ukraine understands Belgium's
00:12:33reservations, where most of the frozen
00:12:37Russian assets are stored. Therefore, a decision of this magnitude must
00:12:41be made collectively. Tykhyy noted that Ukraine has already
00:12:44submitted a corresponding proposal to the European side. According to him, the funds
00:12:48should be directed to
00:12:51defense, supporting resilience and rebuilding Ukraine.
00:12:55And in total, about 210 billion
00:12:58euros of Russian
00:13:00assets have been frozen in the EU.
00:13:03Ukraine has a specific proposal already submitted by
00:13:06our Ministry of Finance to the European side regarding
00:13:10how to find a mechanism
00:13:14at the European level, at the pan-European level,
00:13:18to which these funds can be transferred
00:13:21for management, and then essentially the decision on their
00:13:25use, and we believe that they should be used for
00:13:28the needs of defense, resilience, and recovery
00:13:32of Ukraine. This decision will already be made
00:13:35collectively, with shared responsibility of all governments
00:13:39of the European Union. A touch of the eternal and the voice
00:13:42of resilience: the laureates of the Vasyl Stus Prize were announced in
00:13:46Kyiv. This year, it was received by two
00:13:49artists. Who are they and for what were they honored? Let's
00:13:53see next.
00:13:59For a special contribution to Ukrainian culture and resilience
00:14:02of civic position. In the capital, the
00:14:0537th award ceremony of the Vasyl Stus Prize took place.
00:14:09The first laureate was the translator, writer,
00:14:12philologist, and expert in ancient literature, Andriy
00:14:15Sodomora. Any recognition for today's fault,
00:14:19this is a great honor and responsibility, because all our
00:14:22attention, respect, all our love
00:14:25belongs first and foremost to those who are on the front
00:14:27line. We considered the poet ancient,
00:14:31he is born, we add, just like warriors.
00:14:34Vasyl Stus was born both a poet and
00:14:37a warrior. Another laureate of the prize
00:14:40this year was Olena Styashkina, a writer,
00:14:43publicist, and founder of the public movement "Deoccupation,
00:14:47Return, Education." If I was lucky
00:14:50enough to receive this award, this
00:14:53immediately means that I... had to say that our male and female soldiers
00:14:57must have clear terms of service, they must
00:15:00have financial support, veterans must be in
00:15:03truthful, correct relations with
00:15:06the state, and we must remember about the occupied
00:15:10people. The Vasyl Stus Prize was founded in
00:15:131989 by the Ukrainian
00:15:17Association of Independent Creative Intelligentsia. In
00:15:202016, the initiative was picked up by PEN
00:15:23Ukraine Kyiv, Business School and the publishing house Dukh i
00:15:27Litera. This year, the prize was received by two
00:15:30artists. We look at people who
00:15:34demonstrate this invincibility, this courage,
00:15:37or resilience, and I think
00:15:40these two laureates, Andriy
00:15:43Sodomora, are this touch of the eternal, and Olena
00:15:46Styazhkina, this is the spirit
00:15:48of this resilience, and I think these are very important
00:15:52messages for society right now. The Stus Prize
00:15:55is awarded annually to writers, artists,
00:15:58directors, musicians, cultural managers, and public
00:16:01figures for their contribution to Ukrainian culture and resilience
00:16:05of civic position.
00:16:07Since the prize's inception, more than 70 figures have received it, among
00:16:11them Vitali Portnikov, Mykhailyna Kotsiubynska, and Timothy
00:16:14Snyder.
00:16:17An air raid alert is currently announced in the capital. Literally a few
00:16:21minutes ago, the enemy attacked Dniprovsky and Obolonsky
00:16:24districts of Kyiv, there are preliminary hits in these districts
00:16:28specifically at a gas station. There is no information
00:16:31about casualties yet, and I want to remind you that the enemy attacked a residential
00:16:35building in Dniprovsky district last night. This was reported by the State Emergency
00:16:39Service. At the site of the strike, the facade
00:16:42of the building from the first to the fifth floor, as well as an apartment on
00:16:45the second floor, was burning. And now at the site of the Russian strike, our
00:16:49correspondent Maksym Kulyk is working, and
00:16:52Maksym, I greet you, please tell
00:16:56me, I just said that literally a few
00:16:59minutes ago, explosions rang out again
00:17:03in Kyiv, and now an air raid alert is underway.
00:17:06What is known at this moment? Did you hear these
00:17:10explosions, or are you far from the hit
00:17:12locations?
00:17:19Hello Iryna, hello viewers, at the moment we are in
00:17:23a shelter, we were previously working near
00:17:26the building that was hit by a drone.
00:17:29At the moment, while we were working there, we heard
00:17:32an explosion, as the police later
00:17:36informed us. The hit was at an Ukrnafta
00:17:39gas station, so, I remind
00:17:43Kyiv residents to always go to a shelter
00:17:47during air raids. Regarding the hit
00:17:49on the building, it is known
00:17:52that
00:17:54the drone fell near the building, which caused a large
00:17:57fire. The fire engulfed from the second to the sixth
00:18:01floor. Rescuers
00:18:04evacuated people, seven people are known
00:18:08to have been in a blocked or smoke-filled
00:18:11room. The fire was also quickly extinguished.
00:18:14Now communal workers are cleaning
00:18:18the area, and victims are being provided
00:18:22with humanitarian and psychological assistance. The victims
00:18:25are still recovering.
00:18:28Some victims have already been given permission to go to their
00:18:31apartments, in which apartments it is safe to be, so they could retrieve
00:18:35their personal belongings and documents. Also, according to
00:18:38police information,
00:18:41the drone was manufactured on August
00:18:4427th, as evidenced by a fragment of the drone
00:18:48on which the date was indicated. The number of people who were
00:18:52injured is known to be
00:18:56eight people. According to police
00:18:58data, a 64-year-old man and a 57-year-old
00:19:02woman sustained burns to their bodies
00:19:05and a 23- year-old
00:19:08woman sustained a shrapnel
00:19:10wound, so she was hospitalized. Five
00:19:14other citizens received medical assistance on
00:19:18site. So we will continue to work on
00:19:20site, update the information,
00:19:24so I hand the floor over to you, colleague. Thank you, thank you,
00:19:27Maksym. Take care of yourself and the film crew, and for now,
00:19:31stay in a safe place, in a shelter. All I have to add is, this was
00:19:35our correspondent Maksym... from
00:19:38the capital. Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw
00:19:41Sikorski spoke about the results of his visit to Kyiv. He
00:19:45met with representatives of the President's Office, anti-corruption
00:19:48bodies, veterans, youth, and Ukrainian
00:19:51media. According to him, upon returning to Poland, he
00:19:55will provide the government with the freshest information about
00:19:57the situation in Ukraine. The Polish minister also confirmed that
00:20:01he spoke with negotiators,
00:20:04both with the American and Russian sides. He did not
00:20:08disclose details, but noted that he now better understands the state
00:20:12of the negotiation process and assured that Poland will continue
00:20:15to help
00:20:16Ukraine.
00:20:21This is the most important task for all defense ministries of countries friendly to
00:20:24Ukraine: to implement Ukrainian experience, knowledge, and
00:20:27capabilities into our production plans, military doctrines, and
00:20:31the training of our military. A revolution is happening
00:20:34in military affairs in Ukraine.
