According to lawyer Oleksiy Shevchuk, a member of the association, who spoke to Interfax-Ukraine, this professional association “is intended to become the sole regulator of the industry and the basis for the future profession of lobbyist.”
The association also includes lawyers Olga Prosianuk, Oleksandr Leshchenko, Oleksandr Chernykh, head of the National Association of Arbitration Managers lawyer Oleksandr Bondarchuk, and Artem Samorodov.
Shevchuk recalled that on September 1, Ukraine officially launched the Lobbyist Transparency Register, as provided for by the law on lobbying.
The association already has offices in London and Zurich.
“The National Association of Lobbyists of Ukraine is a step forward toward a culture of transparent promotion of legislative initiatives and professional standards for business representation in government,” Shevchuk emphasized.

The Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs has called on the country’s citizens to leave Belarus as soon as possible and refrain from any travel there. The ministry recommends that those already in Belarus leave “by available commercial or private means,” warning that if the situation worsens, evacuation may be difficult or impossible. This was announced at a briefing on September 5 by Polish Foreign Ministry spokesman Paweł Wroński; the relevant statements were reported by the Polish media.
According to Wronski, the Foreign Ministry “strongly discourages” travel to Belarus, “which is not a democratic country and is not friendly to the Republic of Poland,” and asks that the warning be taken very seriously. Polish media outlets indicate that citizens in Belarus are advised to leave immediately.
As noted by a number of publications, the heightened warning is related to the detention in Belarus of a Polish citizen, a Catholic monk whom Minsk accuses of espionage; the Polish side called this a “provocation” and announced consular support for the detainee. Against this backdrop, the Foreign Ministry issued a separate warning about the risks and reminded citizens of the need to strictly comply with local laws.
Earlier, Polish media outlets had already drawn attention to the restrictions and risks for Poles in Belarus, including the Foreign Ministry’s recommendation to leave the country by any means available and a warning that evacuation may not be possible in the event of a crisis.
An earthquake struck Serbia on September 5, with tremors also felt in Montenegro. According to the Seismology Sector of the Montenegrin Hydrometeorological Institute (ZHMS), the signal was registered at 14:43 local time, with the epicenter approximately 15 km east of Senica (Golija district) with an estimated magnitude of 3.7 on the Richter scale and a depth of about 7 km. The agency notes that such a tremor “could have caused only minor material damage in the epicenter zone.”
The Serbian Seismological Service clarified the parameters: according to its assessment, an earthquake with a magnitude of 4.2 occurred in the Golija area, approximately 20 km east of Senica, with an estimated intensity of up to VI points on the MSK-64 scale at the epicenter.
No serious damage or casualties had been reported at the time of publication; reports of tremors were received from border areas of Montenegro.
When you are involved in an accident, you immediately realize that the road can present unpleasant surprises.
I myself have often thought that I drive perfectly, keep my distance, watch my speed, and then bang — suddenly you find yourself in an emergency situation. At such moments, stress overwhelms you, but at the same time, one panicked question keeps spinning in your head: what to do with the car? After a collision, its value drops almost instantly, and repairs, to be honest, sometimes cost half the price of a new car. And that’s when you start to seriously think about how and to whom to sell the car, because selling it yourself turns out to be much more difficult than it seems at first glance.
Accidents vary. Sometimes it’s enough to replace a headlight, touch up the fender, and you can continue driving without losing much money. But sometimes the airbags are damaged, the body is bent, the suspension is malfunctioning, and you realize that this car is already considered a write-off in the eyes of the market, no matter how great the repairs are. And then the questions start, which tire you out even before you post the ad: where was it repaired, what parts were used, were they original, was everything checked, are there any hidden defects? Each conversation drags on, your energy drains away, and the result is essentially the same — they haggle over the price, they doubt, they look for reasons to lower the price even further. Sometimes you catch yourself thinking, “Wouldn’t it have been easier to just use a car buyback service after an accident?” And yes, this is exactly the kind of situation where such a service really saves the day.
Every day, dozens of cars with a “clean” history are put up for sale, and most buyers will simply pass by options that have been in an accident. Those who agree to look at such cars will use any little thing to drive the price down. Sometimes you think you’ll keep the car, but the consequences of an accident don’t show up right away — the body may start to rust in a couple of months, the transmission or suspension may start to fail, and the costs will grow before your eyes. As a result, every day without a sale adds stress and doubt: “What if I did everything right, but the buyer sees a flaw and lowers the price again?”
After weighing all the arguments, you realize that the ideal way out of this situation is to contact a service that buys damaged cars. In fact, the advantages are obvious and immediately apparent:
Sometimes, when you think about the options for selling, the question arises: “Maybe selling it yourself will bring in more money?” But then you consider the actual costs: repairs, time spent on calls and viewings, negotiations, answering questions, and much more. After calculating all these expenses, it becomes clear that there is almost no difference in terms of finances, and you don’t waste time on the sale. When selling on your own, it takes a lot of energy and fatigue builds up so much that it feels like you’re selling not a car, but a part of your soul.
Selling a car after an accident is not just a matter of the amount of money you get for the car. It is also a matter of convenience, confidence in the buyer, safety, and peace of mind. The car repurchase service helps you turn the page on an unpleasant experience, get a fair price, and move on without spending weeks looking for a private buyer.
