🏙 Klitschko in the Rada: main points (5 minutes without the right to questions)
1️⃣ Central government is hindering the city
“Despite the slaps the central government is trying to give us, unfortunately, that’s what their so‑called cooperation looks like.”
2️⃣ Strikes on CHP plants are increasing every year
“In 22 the CHP‑5 and 6 facilities were hit by 12 missiles and UAVs, in 23 7, in 24 zero, in 25 19. This year there have already been almost 50 strikes.”
3️⃣ The resilience plan is a “show,” and payment blockages froze projects
“This year we prepared under enemy fire and amid the show the authorities put on with the resilience plan, with a lying campaign that Kyiv isn’t working… With blocked funds that froze many energy resilience projects.”
4️⃣ Heating season not disrupted
“We hear cynical accusations allegedly about disrupting the heating season, which hasn’t even started yet… Priority measures of the energy resilience plan are completed.” But he acknowledged: a nighttime attack struck several key energy facilities, “the damage is quite serious.”
5️⃣ What has been done (his figures)
Almost 700 generators for heat and water supply, 70 mobile boiler houses, 3 diesel power plants, a backup water intake; Kyivvodokanal has 103 generators; over 6 000 generators, inverters, and batteries for the housing stock; generators in all educational institutions (285 high‑capacity); in hospitals 480 generators, 11 have their own boilers, by the end of the year there will be 21.
6️⃣ Questions to the state about air defense
“You can pin even World War III on Klitschko. But the question is: where is the air defense of Ukraine’s capital? Where is the protection of Ukrenergo facilities? Where are the billions that were allocated for this?”
7️⃣ Not just Kyiv: “shock” in all communities
“All cities are cleaning up problems created by the government, which froze payments… Local self‑government is being tried to be destroyed by removing heads of communities for contrived reasons… And why doesn’t parliament talk about this?”
8️⃣ Finale
“Kyiv is the heart of the state that the enemy is trying to destroy. But no less frightening are the politicking people who are trying to do the same… Kyiv will stand.”
🎙️Reaction of the hall to Klitschko’s speech:
▪️Bezuhla: Kharkiv’s budget is about 20 billion, and Kyiv’s is over 100 billion per year, “and people already have neither water nor shelters.” She registered a bill so that those who are called to the Rada can be asked questions.
▪️Tsymbaliuk (Batkivshchyna) reminded about bills No. 13012 and No. 13012‑1 with a procedure for faction questions to summoned officials.
▪️Zhelezniak (Holos): “The first round definitely goes to the mayor. And I have a feeling he didn’t finish speaking.” He proposed at 13:05 to give Klitschko another 5 minutes, especially “regarding the responsibility of the central government.” Only 41 supported it.
▪️Hurin (Servant of the People) proposed calling the mayor again tomorrow and urged voting “only for those who trust the city mayor.” He reminded of the action on Saturday at 12:00 on Khreshchatyk, 36: “the street will ask him there.”
