the People of Ukraine today lives in the mode of adaptive quarantine. What is it and how really the country will return to “darowizny” form of existence, understanding of the unit. And they mainly keep quiet.
At 9 a.m. all of the Kiev TV channels aired a briefing by the head of the Ministry of Maxim Stepanov. The event lasted a little more than 5 minutes. The entire journalistic fraternity has provided a VoiceOver, zachityvalis carefully “combed” questions from leading/elected media. The Minister obviously knew in advance what he will ask, so the answers turned outwardly foldable and… nothing.
For example, heads of certain municipalities, despite the previously announced Cabinet of the Republic of concessions, still have the right… to tighten the regime behavior in the controlled territories. This applies primarily to cities of Bukovina, the sad leadership which the total number of cases can not take away even Kiev. 2400 cases COVID-19 in bordering Romania region compared to approximately 1870 “coronaviruses” in Kiev (where the level of care significantly better than provincial) is a disaster for this beautiful region.
Because, despite the offensive on 12 may, in Chernivtsi region it is still prohibited to work “entities trade and consumer services of the population”. The police, as before, to issue the fines caught in public places “basmacian”, and even to people who decided to pay a visit to children’s playgrounds. It is also prohibited mass events and individual visits to the dentists.
But Bukovina museums are waiting for their visitors, restaurants, cafes and kavyarni (i.e. coffee shop) will finally be able to serve customers, albeit in the mode of delivery and “to go”. Also removed the ban on visits by lawyers, notaries, accountants and psychologists.
, Ukrainian Railways (Ukrzaliznytsia) has announced the resumption in may of the commuter. More or less exact date is not known, the inhabitants directed to the official website of the BONDS. Meanwhile, the real reconstruction “battered” economy in the period of adaptive quarantine without regular transportation to the city workers is simply unthinkable. Private cars because not hitting. Commuter bus service is also not running. Spend your remaining money on cab drivers on a daily expensive moving back and forth want to quite a few.
social media Users from other regions from early morning to share their impressions about the visits in a locked hitherto non-food stores. My colleague from Uzhgorod Tatiana Kogutek, “armed with” official permission of the Cabinet to go to the store ready to wear dresses, not without a pleasant surprise discovered after 2 months of “simpleOYA” in almost all retail outlets are proud discounts up to 40%. Deciding to try a chiffon dress, Tatiana in front of the booth got from the saleswoman two similar outfit. “People have no money, and we need to recopilaci, so here, you see, the price of 1200 UAH ($44), and I will give you 700 ($26). More confused: take your clothes off and try on “Nove” with gloves, goggles and a mask – not very pleasant.And if you take off the protective equipment (including gloves, relatively densely covered with davidom), and take up a new dress – feel like a kamikaze. Catching mental anguish women customers, the seller immediately hastened to reassure my colleague: “do not worry you so, look at us, and the steripod is, go get changed, now you get!”.
Kiev is a writer, PhD in social communications Elena Ryzhko came to the city “to explore” all with the same familiar “protivostoyanie” attributes: in the medical respirator, glasses, gloves and chlorhexidine in spray. In the courtyard of the National technical University of Ukraine “Kyiv Polytechnic Institute. Igor Sikorsky” the lady managed to get around people for 2-3 meters, only the first 40 m. Well, then “… felt like I was on Khreshchatyk on weekends! Treated gloves, wearing a mask and decided that my 10 thousand steps I and old courtyards find, why do I need the Park.”
the mayor of the capital Vitaly Klitschko, whose briefing was traditionally at noon, the whole country is watching, today again condemned the carelessness of the majority of countrymen. “Do not comfort yourself with illusions, the virus is not retreated, if the increase of new cases in a week will not decrease dramatically, we had no choice but to return to the old strict quarantine regime,” Checa said the mayor. .
In the Lower Dnieper, the people also began to drop hateful filthy masks and unanimously to waive compliance with social distance. In the Kherson cafes and restaurants who have not worked since March 17, there is a full house. Disposable tableware, which under the new rules, to be present in sufficient quantity, enough at best in the first 2-3 hours of work. Further meals are served at the usual utensils. Instead of the usual menu (also prohibited) on the tables towering plastic plaques with the listing of options on offer.
are Calculated with the waiters not by Bank transfer (as required by the Ukrainian government), and cash. Despite the fact that the institutions have payment terminals.
– the Easing of a mode is a forced necessity, – the inhabitant of Kherson Faith. – People sitting 2 months without a paycheck, and in that time we have become poverty-stricken country.
this is clearly looming “poverty” on Tuesday, near the town Hall in the center of Lviv gathered local entrepreneurs. Them, contrary to the decision of the Cabinet, not allowed to re-open Barber shops, beauty salons and ��o ther points of a small business. “We desperately need to start working, we have money invested, product two months “in the easy”! – complains entrepreneur named Antepli.
His companions in misfortune are outraged that the big retailers like “Auchan” and “Epicenter” (to which “caring” President Vladimir Zelensky) with no restrictions sell to everyone clothing and shoes. Small retailers doing this is strictly forbidden.
In Zhytomyr the same “Epicenter” in the morning blocked the fifty activists of the “National body”. Radicals, playing up the mood of the local entrepreneurs, they require the power to punish Kyiv hosts “Hub” for “illegal construction” near the Central bus station, and to draw public attention to the preferences granted to the city government, while small and medium businesses, “is bent on the eyes.”
Local skeptics, however, the action of the radicals explain what “charge” them to the Minister of internal Affairs Arsen Avakov “Epicenter” of something there are underpaid.
and so occurs the first day of the long-awaited quarantine exemptions. “Assuming announced by the Cabinet of Ministers explanation of what “adaptive quarantine”, you can come to a simple conclusion: this is the shifting of responsibility for the situation with coronavirus to the local authorities, – says Director of the Institute of world policy Viktor Shlinchak. – Because the Central government does not know what to do, and “washes his hands”.
