Speaker A
Clause 560. Please. 560 means nothing. Please. I don't need your documents. 560 means nothing. It is a subordinate act that contradicts the fundamental law, the Constitution of Ukraine.
Speaker A
You have no grounds for this, guys. Yes. What are you filming? And why wouldn't I have the right? Of course you don't. Like that.
Speaker A
Why? What forbids me from filming? Let me pass. The law forbids filming the military.
Speaker A
The law forbids it. The Constitution of Ukraine has the highest legal force. Alright. Yes. Article 34. The Constitution allows me to collect, store, and disseminate information in any way.
Speaker A
Resolution 1456. Gentlemen, Resolution 1456 contains a clear list of reasons for checking documents. What are the reasons right now for checking my documents?
Speaker A
Martial law is imposed—how long is martial law imposed for? Martial law is imposed for 90 days, then extended.
Speaker A
Martial law cannot be extended. After martial law ends, a state of war is introduced and power is transferred to the military.

Speaker A
Meaning, without a reason, you cannot simply approach and check documents. There are clear reasons defined in the Cabinet of Ministers resolution. If you follow the resolutions, there is 1456, which has six grounds for checking documents. Meaning, if I have violated
Speaker A
something, right? If there are grounds. Thank you, and have a good day. Goodbye.
