captain of the armed forces of ukraine. mr. yuri, i congratulate you, thank you for being with us today. i congratulate you. today, yuri vitaliyovych, staff changes in the ministries were expected and resignations of ministers were expected, or, let's say, the decision of the verkhovna rada, what where, regarding some ministers, but at the same time there was information that... that nabu and sap informed the current minister of agrarian policy and food, mykola solsky, of the suspicion that the land of a state-owned enterprise in sumy oblast was being flooded with land. the criminal group, as reported in nabu isap, included officials of the state geocadastre bodies and persons who controlled the activities of these bodies. i will quote this message. as a result of the implementation of the equipment in 2017-21, participants of the scheme. took possession of 1,250 plots of land with a total area of ​​2,493

ha, the value of which at the time of the crime was more than uah 291 million. they also attempted to seize 3,282 hectares of land worth about uah 190 million. yury vitaliyovych, but with this it seems, well, if everything is clear and understandable, but it is not clear who... will bear political responsibility for the fact that solsky was in office and tried for so long to replenish his agrarian possessions, because we know what. .. he had an agrarian business with andrii bohdan, you actually took my answer out of my tongue regarding this, because for during the time of the green government, we remember dozens, i do not deny it, dozens of cases when people's deputies from servants, ministers from servants, heads of regional administrations or their deputies from servants received suspicions from the national

anti-corruption bureau or the sbu, they are... suspected of embezzlement millions, in millions of bribes, in an offer to policemen who are drunk driving, to give hundreds of thousands, to go quietly into the forest, in collecting money for the illegal export of ukrainians who evade mobilization abroad, in ordering prostitutes right in the premises of the parliament, in the embezzlement of billions of the military budget, we live inside all these scandals, and the worst thing is that there are constantly inside... in this corrupt, scandalous bubble , our fighters are on the front lines all the time, who 24 hours a day have to repel the attacks of the enemy, while simultaneously knowing and feeling what the authorities are doing behind their shoulders, so the first question is not when these people will be convicted, because

a fair trial, unlike an unfair one, is a long enough affair, but when will there be political responsibility... those who appoints the relevant persons. there is also corruption in the west, but when a minister or deputy minister or deputy is detained, those who recommended or appointed him resign politically, due to political responsibility. someone has already put mr. solsky on the list of servants of the people, someone has already appointed him in yermak's cabinet as a future minister and... who supported his activities all these years? these people, without even proven criminal profit from such an appointment, should resign. then the reputation institute will work in the country. then the authorities will be trusted that they may be wrong, but punish their corrupt officials. and

yes, it means that just one more got caught, the next one will take its place. and in this case, when you started your question, mr. sergey, about the fact that there may be changes in the government, in fact, this society practically does not care. you go out into the street and ask passers-by, well, for example, the first ten passers-by, what is the name of the pc minister. well, i have almost no doubt that none of them will tell you his last name. ask what their name is minister of finance ask, for example, the name of the minister of energy. think that the result will be the same, why? because the state, unfortunately, in the current unconstitutional system of governance, has returned to yanukovych's methods, when one person, who is absolutely not authorized to do so by law, and her name is the head of the president's office andriy yermak, makes decisions, how the parliament will vote, what

this or that minister will do and how will the government actually work, so nothing will change from... repositioning the signs on the doors of the government as long as our country has one person who in an extra-constitutional way, contrary to the requirements of the constitution, tries to manage the state, how he succeeds, well , we can see, but nevertheless, this makes it absolutely unnecessary to reshuffle the ministers, as long as they carry out the whims and instructions yerbaka, not veli. armed forces of ukraine and the ukrainian people. you are talking about andriy yarmak as a person who manages processes in the state, well, as someone said, i am neither the first nor the second, do you remember such a mr. tkachenko, now deceased, but in the current situation yermamak has become one of from those, a person who was included in the hundred

most influential people in the world according to the version of zhurnalum, and the publication called yermak. the man who played and plays a central role in ensuring the work of the ukrainian government after the start of a large-scale war, i quote the publication: after the full-scale invasion, he brought zelensky's message to the world, creating a strong network of friends of ukraine, from the west to the global south, uniting them around issues from environmental sanctions. since 5 years have already passed since the election of zelenskyi on april 21. whether or not can we already say that the era of zelenskyi is being replaced by the era of yermak, or has it already changed a long time ago? i think. i think that the public, this publication of the rating in the magazine reflects a reality that has been obvious to everyone for a long time:

president zelenskyi cannot manage the country without his friend yermak, this is a tandem: we have the greatest leader and the most influential leader, but if no joke, it seems to me that in this situation , if someone believes that yarmak is real. a good manager, it would be correct to appoint him to a position where he will realize his abilities and to be responsible for them, because this is an invention of zelenskyi and his team, when all those who manage the processes in the state are in positions in which there is no functional responsibility, well, tell me what will be responsible for what, in which case, the advisor of the president's office podolyak, in he is in his functional duties... to advise, if suddenly his advice leads to some critical things for the state, then the prosecutor's office or nabu cannot even charge him with any suspicion of exceeding his powers

or abusing his powers, they do not, but what authority does the ermak have, to provide the president with paper clips and papers and analytical notes, to keep his schedule under control, how can he be charged with the fact that the ministry of energy or the ministry of finance or any other... or the ministry that he actually governs, it has led the country to one or another crisis, so this is precisely the case with adviser shurma, the same applies to adviser tatarov, none of them have functional duties for which they are responsible, and nevertheless they manage everyone, therefore, from my point of view, it would be very fair to do one thing in zelenskyi's place now: or leave one leader on the bank street. admitting that yarmak has clearly overstepped the mark of his rating, or send him to a responsible position, well, for example,

the prime minister, especially since then we will all understand who is really in charge and who is responsible for it, though, i suspect, that none of this will happen, we will continue to live in an office block democracy, which does not correspond to ... the constitution, but there is a reality in which we must live during war. yuri vitaliyovych, yarmak is not responsible for the current constitution and does not have the same functionality as president zelensky. but, one way or another, during the 5 years of his presidency, zelenskyi is responsible, and this political responsibility is still on zelenskyi, not on yermak, even though he says, says that yermak will go only with me. when my presidential powers will end, this was said two years ago at a press conference, what were these 5 years of president zelensky like, did you know volodymyr

oleksandrovych long before the beginning of his political career, and you can say that you knew zelensky there from the beginning of 2010 or 2011, and you know zelensky of the 2024 model of that year, how does zelensky of that time differ from current? look, this is a difficult question to answer briefly, yes, of course, i have known volodymyr oleksandrovich for a long time, i communicated with him in normal life, when i was freer, and he was more cheerful and accessible, but i now remember an episode when i remained the general prosecutor. and volodymyr aleksandrovich had already become the president, at first he offered me to resign, i asked why all of a sudden, he said: well, everyone left,

i say, i was never like everyone else, i didn’t steal anything, i didn’t sell anything, why i i have to go somewhere, i have a term of 5 years, but if the new parliament will be with your majority, yes, of course i will go, because there is no need for a prosecutor general without a majority in the parliament, i am not interested in the position, but the opportunity... parliamentary elections , everything is fine, and he was very satisfied, and here i am asking him, well, yes by my friendship, i say, owner, but tell me, where are you leading the country, he says, i have carte blanche for everything, from where, he tells me, well , what don’t you know, i have 73%, i say how much was in the first round, 25, i say, look, poroshenko had 50 in the first round 5 years ago. and yanukovych won from tymoshenko by only 2.5%, and yushchenko won from yanukovych by only four. these same percentages do not mean anything, they are

just open. to implement my course, i ask where you are leading the country, and here he answers me with the main phrase to which i am leading you: i will show you old politicians how people will applaud me every day, my lord, the country is very sick, it has a lot that needs to be changed, if a sick person applauds a doctor, he is a hook, he tells me: no, these applauses will happen every day. and volodymyr oleksandrovich has not changed at all in this regard. he sincerely believed that it is possible to achieve applause with populist, simple, dilettantish steps, and this is what he needs most in all his 5 years, remember, in the 19th year of ovation, all those who talk about his dilettantism and militant ignorance of a new team, well, it simply disappears from the political map, in the 20th year, applause,

nevertheless, criticism is almost not allowed. in the 21st year, dr. komarovsky and gordon are already saying that we are fools, we were deceived and here is the war, a catastrophe that, from my point of view, was caused, among other things, by absolute incompetence in foreign policy with such a neighbor, and this trouble brings zelensky back to the mountain of the world popularity, already a worldwide ovation, a year later global applause, and another year later, now, in which we live, rare claps. what does it mean? this means that populism, simple solutions, reluctance to think through strategies, always leads to one result, to a result that, well, does not benefit the ukrainian nation, and we have to learn this lesson from these five years. yes, despite the end of the term, zelensky remains the president of the warring country. and one should not

succumb to the russians who try to deny it, but nevertheless, immediately after the end of the war, we have to make a notch for ourselves, regardless of surnames, everyone who does not have experience in public administration, everyone who promises to lead a young team that will change everything, everyone who does not have a strategic vision for the country's key issues should not start training in 40 million countries. because the cross in the ballots, for the sake of it, even if it is a slur, very often turns into crosses in the cemeteries of the whole country. yurii vitaliyovych, dmytro chikalkin made the film two presidents, where they tried to compare what ukraine lost after volodymyr zelensky came to power. we remember these debates at the olympic stadium and zelensky's 10 questions to poroshenko, i specifically

looked at these 10 questions. they are possible in principle, as candidate zelensky could ask president zelensky absolutely exactly, just like poroshenko, and could ask about hands, why your closest people still have hands, and who is crushing burshtyn, and very, very many questions such that, in principle , they could absolutely be relayed to president zelensky, if we are talking about two or five. one five-year plan of poroshenko and the second five-year plan of zelenskyi, which after all, ukraine lost after zelenskyi came to power, and i immediately understand that our tv viewers will say, and lutsenko was a member of poroshenko's team, he cannot be objective, but i will address you to a person who is already out of power and who has been to the war, and there are obviously fewer of you. politics

is now in this situation, but a person who can look from the side and say about what ukraine has lost? look, it's true, i will be biased if i answer about the law enforcement system, about certain things related to my work in the gep, but eh, yes , indeed, the war and participation in it gives a very serious, fresh look at what took place in in the 19th year, well, the first... it was poroshenko who accepted a country in which donbas and two-2/3 of donbas and crimea were already occupied. at the same time, according to the testimony of the then chief of the general staff, there were from five to 15 thousand combat-ready troops in the country. after yanukovych , the entire technical base, documentary base, economic base of the armed forces of ukraine was actually destroyed.

nevertheless. without general mobilization.
