Influence something, i have already said many times, i once submitted a decree on the closed sky, back in the 21st year before the start of the war, i asked to close the sky, and everyone treated it like that, sometimes even skeptically, so what is a closed sky, like this maybe, well, israel showed how it is perhaps when iran was striking him. Now i would see it, when france, for example, declares that we can send our fighters to ukraine, britain is there. Some people in power do not rule it out either, they do not deny it, i would i saw it, well, we know that there are many patriot systems in europe, there are the same poles who will be next, or other nato countries, well, in the depths of ukraine to a depth of about 50 km, i am in their place, globally, if they think globally and want to remain players like at least at the level of europe, and to be reckoned with in the world, to install. Patriot systems and say look, we are not entering the war, but our task is to shoot down every Russian Missile that flies at a civilian object ukraine, if it is not the trenches on the front line, and we will shoot down every missile that approaches closer than 100 km to the border, lets say, ukraine, and the eu countries, and this is not an entrywar, this is a real declaration of defense. European countries that are there in the European Union and protection of the ukrainian civilian population, it is normal and i think it is right, and i do not know if the Russian Federation bypassed it and did something to them because of everything there, i do not know the notes of protest, it is very difficult to do, because these are normal declarations, and you can start from this, go further and further and further, because this is , look at kharkiv, which, by the way, you were in the wind, this is precisely the question of what. Russia is striking civilian objects, the whole of europe is watching , so you can take such steps, i dont know why they dont they do, its fear, or some sick game of diplomacy, but the fact that they dont do it, well, history, at least, wont forgive it. From a technical and legal point of view, colonel, the polish authorities are already considering the possibility of involving the countrys air Defense Systems in shooting down Russian Missiles over ukrainian territory near the borders, the spokesman of the polish ministry of foreign affairs, pavel wroy, said. We know that zelensky has already announced a visit to france, and there he will also consider the issue of closing the sky, well, at least in the western part of our country, so we will wait for this decision, and at the very end of our conversation, i would like to ask how you assess the Current Situation with mobilization in ukraine, on may 18 , the law on making changes to the procedure for mobilization, as well as accounting for military obligations, entered into force. Them, you, as the secretary of the profile committee, what would you say, how satisfied both in the parliament and in the military leadership are with the changes and pace at which we conscripts are now being registered or having their data updated in the tsk, including through the application reserve plus. Look, i would divide your question into two pleasures. This is the result and the process, but i am not satisfied with the process, for example , because, lets say, a lot of cool things have been done, here is the ministry of defense, this reserve, but i have a lot of questions, especially for the military leaders, when it happens now, when people come to update, for example, data even for reservations, who work in the defenseindustrial complex and are taken away and have to speak with representatives there and explain. You are gentle, there are many normal, adequate people who are coming to meet you, but at the same time, lets say, they may have questions, but they, lets say, see strategically, some leaders do not see anymore. They dont see beyond their tsk and there is a soldier in a trench, they dont see that this soldier needs to build a drone or make a projectile, because if we drive everyone into the trenches, then tomorrow there will be nothing to shoot at, and this is the problem, this is what we are facing today , by the way, we had a committee and we solved this problem, now we have collected the issues, including those i raised, we submit them as proposals to the government, they have to uh fix it, and the result, well , ill tell you what. According to my information, uh, the result now exceeds all expectations, but as of the latest, i wont name the numbers, but its the biggest , apparently, i dont know, well, i wont say since, but probably within a year, so the result is really there, and it makes me happy, well, that is , we expected much less, but we got much more, right, i dont think im waiting, were waiting with. Always more, but now there is a question that due to the fact that people came to update and people understood there some rules, and sometimes, when, lets say, they took away those who were needed, that is, lets say, the number of people, now we need to make them quality, and now we need to regulate that those people who are needed for the defense of the industrial complex, for the operation of critical infrastructure, they still remained, because , well, you can, lets say, still. Put everyone in a trench and be left without ammunition, without weapons and without the economy.

Next, we have vitaly kulyk, director of the center for researching Civil Society problems. Mr. Vitaly, i congratulate you and thank you for joining our broadcast. Congratulations you. Lets start our conversation with the last few days, during which in. In the Verkhovna Rada, during which we are watching these events, and it seems that a separate part of the peoples deputies is trying to return the subjectivity of the parliament and, nevertheless, to move the center of decisionmaking from bankova street to hrushevsky street, considering that this is a parliamentarypresident ial republic, two questions that were requested to be put to a vote by the representatives of european solidarity, the creation of the tsk on fortifications and consideration in the second reading of the draft law on the ban of the Orthodox Church in ukraine. The first question was voted. Second, at the beginning of june, the Verkhovna Rada will consider, and before considering this draft law, at the request of a monomajority, elected representatives must collect 240 signatures, the collection is conducted by. The Government Party and the opposition, lets see what representatives of both the opposition and the government say. Collect several factions. Ours collected more than 100, 120, 120, the process continues, other factions are also collecting votes. Our task, it was the wish of the majority fraction, to collect more 240 votes, because then they will be convinced that this law will pass, we will all vote for it, and many opposition factions too, they are worried. That it will look bad if half of the ruling faction does not vote, i dont think this process will be completed this week, i think it will take a little more time, because now many colleagues in the line of the couple are on a business trip, and they have to to do personally, but it is definitely more than, well, more than 150 signatures, mr. Vitaly, stefanchuk says that there are no er. Places for political discussion during the war, there should be a political discussion, how do you view the attempt to return to the subjectivity of the parliament . I dont see anything wrong with the subjectivity of the parliament, because it was really correctly said, after all, we are a parliamentarypresident ial republic, and it is obvious that the parliament has a role in the formation of politics, and not all politics should be in the hands of the banks, although of course we understand , which is in supreme command, determines policy, determines military, defense policy, but with on the other hand, there are a number of issues that still fall within the competence of the Verkhovna Rada, the majority of the Verkhovna Rada. And in particular the cabinet of ministers is responsible and reports to the Verkhovna Rada, so i dont see anything wrong with the parliaments authority, the parliament should, should be subject in any case, of course, that the bank may not like it, because it believes that now the Parliament Must vote like a carbon copy, like a serax, all decisions generated by banks are another story, but by and large the parliament should play a role, in particular parliamentary control over. Defense, the Security Sector and trying to keep a hand on the course of economic processes, in particular the mobilization of the economy, this is the task of the parliament, and what the president ial majority is trying to prevent from realizing is all these opportunities for parliamentary control , this seems to me to be a problem, the parliament, despite everything. I am not talking about the fact that there is no majority, but there is a situational majority of the people plus satellites, but so far they are voting, well, more or less effectively, although a whole package legislative acts, is not postponed, or is not brought into the hall, certain. Problems are created for introduction, for consideration, artificial obstacles are placed for introduction in the hall, if there is no consensus of various groups that vote for the servants of the people on certain issues, this there are already certain signs of a political crisis, but at the moment we can say that after the turmoil with the military command, after the adoption of the law on mobilization and a number of personnel. Appointments , the parliament postponed in time to solve the problems that had accumulated within the majority, postponed in at the time of resolving the wishes of the allies of the same servant of the people party, their faction, but this does not mean that this issue has been removed at all, it is not closed on the contrary, it is simply invested in time, and the tension in the parliament is increasing, perhaps almost all deputies are about it. Confirms that sooner or later the parliament will face a crisis, and then the servants will have trouble voting effectively. At the moment they have the results of the vote, the parliament should finally return to subjectivity after all, and part of the policy, which should be generated under the competence of the constitution, assigned to the competence of the parliament, should be returned there. Not the consecration of voting produced somewhere on the sidelines of banking decisions or legislative initiatives or directly draft laws that are developed for deputies through stakeholders, people to whom these laws concern, because now the main problem of lawmaking activity, in my opinion, is that actually from this work, work by stakeholders, work with those who will be, whose work, whose life will be regulated by these legislative it was for mobilization, it was with a number of economic laws, where a dialogue with the Expert Community was simply ignored or simulated, but i believe that if we talk about the subjectivity of the parliament, this is precisely the return of the discussion, the return of the process of making certain decisions in the parliament, and i will not go down somewhere on the side, and the involvement of stakeholders directly. Those affected by these laws. Ah, you said that there might well be a political crisis, but how, in short, how can one survive this political crisis when the country cannot conduct parliamentary and president ial elections. Well, we understand that it is impossible not to hold elections forever. We dont know when the war will end, but, well, there is a lag in everything. A time when society can accept and recognize the risks of existence, the possibility of holding elections, but it cannot last forever. This is the first question, that is , there should be some reasonable time interval from which it will be allowed to move according to the inertia of the political process, and then one way or another the question of elections will arise, even during martial law, this is the first position, the second position, if we are talking about reformatting and the acquisition by the parliament of its subjectivity, as well as the redistribution of power in favor of the government. Parliament from banking, backroom decisions, then this can be done only by forming a government of National Stability, i say deliberately a government of National Stability, and not a government of National Unity, because in my opinion these are two big differences, as they say in odessa, and the first difference is in that the government of National Unity is a question of the participation of other Political Forces in the coalition government, quotas, political quotas of their representatives in the government, we are talking about the possibility of. A technocratic government of National Stability made of technocrats and the possibility of attracting from various political environments people who are not delegated by a political party, but who are specialists, enjoy trust in the Expert Community or some a professional to a professional community, and these people can actually enter the government, and then the government must be collegial, it must be one that takes responsibility for the implementation and implementation of policy, it. Then it is like, in particular, he does not just take responsibility, he is the Prime Ministers team, and accordingly, he ceases to be a machine for legalizing decisions that descend from the banking side, but then it can really restart the government system, it can and it can give a certain additional impetus for the stability of the government system itself in ukraine. Mr. Vitaly. Lets talk more about foreign policy, because in just a few days in switzerland , on june 1516, the global peace summit will take place, and of course the main intrigue is who will represent the United States of america and will there be a chinese representative at this global peace summit, can this global peace summit affect and how can it affect the russianukrainian war . I dont have. I dont have high expectations, let s say, inflated expectations from the peace summit, firstly, there are unlikely to be any decisions that will stop like a magic button on off, yes, there wont be any such switch that will start a war, it is unlikely that the agreements that can be negotiated there will already be a road map, forcing russia to peace, but several cases will be discussed there. Which very important for ukraine, this is the issue of the traffic of people and goods, this is the issue of the exchange of prisoners, this is the issue of humanitarian policy, the issue of nuclear security, which concerns all of humanity, not only ukraine, but these issues will most likely have some continuation, and solutions, or, at least, efforts to come to some kind of solution, they will influence the formation of global agendas, and this in turn will be you. On russia, in particular, pushing russia to a more constructive position on the war in ukraine, and a significant to a certain extent, the effectiveness of this summit will depend on the format in which china participates in this summit, in particular, who besides the Prime Minister of india from the global south will agree at the highest level to also participate in this summit, or what will be the authority . Of their representatives, whether it will be the participation of conveying ones position and thats all, or whether it will really be participation in the discussion with the development of some joint decisions, but for now i am such a restrained realist and believe that this is only the first step being taken, and to the real framework, a global settlement framework, some kind of framework for a new world order, a step towards a new order is still far enough away, but against this background, if we have already started talking about china, we have witnessed how the British Government declared that it has data, Intelligence Data about , that china intends or supports russia with weapons, the United States of america does not yet have data on the provision of chinese weapons to russia, said jake sullivan, the adviser to the president of the United States of america on national security. Lets hear what sullivan said. We didnt see that in 2022 year, we didnt see it in 2023, we dont see it now, im looking forward to talking to great. Britain to make sure we have a common operational picture. Want to better understand what exactly was meant in this comment . Mr. Vitaly, i have the impression that everyone sees the situation differently, seemingly obvious things, and what sidzin pini says, the way he behaves with vladimir putin, shows that these two countries are definitely too close to each other one, much. Closer than the United States of america to great britain, or the United States of america to ukraine. Could it be that the britis
