The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and the Ministry of Health of Ukraine have been instructed to prepare proposals on the advisability of installing additional controls and restrictions on migration between Ukraine and countries where the Delta coronavirus (COVID-19) strain is rapidly spreading.
According to the presidential press service, during a conference call at the President’s Office, its participants heard information from the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine on the spread of COVID-19 Delta strain.
According to the National Academy of Sciences, “this strain of coronavirus is 1.6 times more infectious than the Alpha strain, some 2.26 times more likely to lead to hospitalization, and the risk of resuscitation in case of infection increases 1.45 times.”
The Global Affairs Canada, implementing the Ukraine Horticulture Business Development Project (UHBDP), has decided to extend the project until March 31, 2022, whereas it was previously planned to be completed in 2021, project manager Dmytro Nikolayev said during a press conference in Kyiv. According to him, UHBDP for the period from 2014 to 2021 provided financial support for a total of UAH 43.25 million for 2,780 clients.
He clarified that by March 31, 2022, the project will additionally support clients under various programs in the amount of about UAH 20 million. He clarified that at present UHBDP focused on informing farmers about the legislative features of the land market launched from July 1, developing and implementing educational and online trading platforms, and providing grants for business restoration to the most vulnerable groups of agricultural producers.
As reported, UHBDP finances 30% of the total cost of projects, which are at least estimated at $ 200,000. The term of their implementation is a year and a half.
The Ukraine Horticulture Business Development Project (UHBDP) is funded by the Global Affairs Canada, implemented and co-financed by the Mennonite Economic Development Associates (MEDA). MEDA works with Israel’s Agency for International Development Cooperation(MASHAV) and international service companies to provide technical support.
UHBDP works with producers from Zaporizhia, Kherson, Mykolaiv and Odesa regions, engaged in fruit and vegetable growing, berry growing, viticulture and beekeeping.
The Ukrainian national football team on Monday suffered a defeat in front of the Austrian team with a score of 0:1 in the match of the third round of the 2020 European Championship.
According to the match broadcast, in the 21st minute the Austrian national team took the lead. After filing a standard, Christoph Baumgartner beat Illia Zabarny and shot into the corner of the goal of Heorhiy Bushchan.
Mykola Shaparenko tried to attack with a blow, but the Austrian goalkeeper deflected him, and Andriy Yarmolenko’s leg did not reach for finishing.
However, the Austrians had two points to increase the score. In particular, Marko Arnautovic first missed the goal from 12 meters away, and at the end of the half, the Austrian national team player failed to outplay Bushchan.
In the second half, there were no significant changes in the game. Austria controlled the game, almost scoring into their own goal. Until the end of the half, the Austrians lost several chances to double the result. In one case, Bushchan made a save after being hit by Stefan Lainer, in the other Arnautovich made a mistake.
In general, Austria played according to the score and did not give Ukraine a chance to recoup a positive result.
As a result, with a score of 0:1, Ukraine lost the second position in the group, going down to third. Andriy Shevchenko’s team has a 4:5 ratio of goals scored and conceded, which makes it difficult to get into the playoffs due to the rating of the third teams.
The final situation in the ranking will be announced on June 23 in the evening.
