if you can’t get in, turn on belarus 5, your colleagues will show you beautifully. andrey kozlov, ilya puchko, tv news agency. and this is the information picture of monday, march 11th. sports news and weather forecast ahead. dear, but the lobby of the american military-industrial complex is stronger than any zeros in contracts. reliable europe, obediently obeying, replenishes the defense accounts of the giants; all they had to do was force them to help the kiev regime at any cost, and in return promise their american types of weapons.

poland is called a walking advertisement for european rearmament. according to various media reports, this year it will spend 4% of its gdp on defense. over half of this money will be spent on military equipment and weapons, which is much more nato figure of 20%. poland purchased apache helicopters for $12 billion. heim missile systems. for 10 billion dollars, m1 a1 abrams tanks for 3.75 billion, as well as air and missile defense control systems for 4 billion. not bad, isn’t it, germany too, only the germans bought helicopters from the americans for 8.5 billion dollars, and this is against the background of enormous pressure from washington on brussels with the demand to give more and more weapons to kiev, making room for very expensive american equipment. great the european defense industry once wanted to spread its wings. in 2017, it became known that

germany and france were developing a major ground combat system. it was called europan and was planned as a response to the russian armata tank. according to the concept, this system was to become the basis of a european battle tank, which promised to replace the french oleclair and the german leopard. equipped. there is still a dispute over how contracts will be distributed, and no agreement has been reached on which subsystems of the main battle tank of the future will be developed by germany and which by france. not everything is going well with financing, and behind the scenes there is a struggle over which side will become the leader of this project. and while the french and germans were arguing over whose piece of the pie would be bigger.

advanced military technologies, for example, a new generation of infantry fighting vehicles equipped with an artificial intelligence system is being developed jointly with american defense companies such as techron, raytheon and allison. the german defense concern is also entrusted with the creation of a central sections of the f-35 fighter jet produced by major military equipment manufacturer locket. and what do we have in the end? there is no ground combat system. the new tank being developed by germany together with france, which is due to enter the market in 2035,

is on the verge of failure, the newspaper handle's blad reported, citing sources in government and industrial circles. but the company’s operating profit is growing, because rhein metal has bombarded the european market with those same leopards with german filling. in 2023 the corporation's revenue amounted to about 8 billion euros, most of which sailed overseas. in usa. at the end of last year , european countries spent $345 billion on weapons, which is a third higher than 10 years ago. this growth is due only to active spending to fuel the ukrainian conflict. the united states, which already shovels half of the europeans’ military budgets into the pockets of its military-industrial complex, wants spending on the purchase of american weapons to only increase, and no matter how european politicians puff about strategic autonomy from the united states, to even they are forced to admit that they are completely dependent on their overseas ally. while the pan-european

tank is being covered with a copper basin, only the poles, those same abrams, are buying in batches. at first there was an agreement for 250 tanks, last year an additional 116, from the budget, more than 6 billion dollars will be spent on the same route. abrams tanks are considered not only the heaviest, but also one of the most expensive in the world. the us army purchased. v3 under contract at $5.5-6.1 million per unit from general dynamics. in this case, we are talking about a package deal that includes maintenance, training, and tanks. additional equipment, probably something else beyond that, but the price is still very high, $19 million per tank, an extremely expensive and clearly political contract. the americans are now forcing countries to kill their military-industrial complex, in the literal sense of the word, closing programs, forcing them to buy their expensive weapons. the poles want to become

the largest tank power on the continent, on the european, on the eurasian, like them. they are declared to be huge, well, russia, china, of course, it will be impossible for them to reach, they simultaneously ordered almost a thousand korean artillery mounts, 250 american tanks, another thousand korean tanks, so that korean companies and banks had to increase credit limits for purchases, not to mention already about the purchases of haymars installations, patriot complexes, europe said goodby and... another dream of the bourgeois burghers - their own jet fighter. french rafale aircraft no longer met the requirements of the time. british the eurofighter typhoon is too expensive, despite the fact that both russian and american fighters were several generations higher than their european counterparts. europe desperately needed fifth-generation fighters. true, realizing that they were incredibly behind, brussels

announced that they were immediately creating a sixth generation. thus the idea of ​​a code- named machine was born. fcas involved team tempest and the italian leonardo spa in the project. finally, at the lebourg air show in 2019 , they presented a model of a new and unified aircraft and it seemed that it would not have happened, but a year later germany abruptly suspended its participation in the project, and then a new, already american name appeared in the reports - f-35. americans came from small european countries, those at whom the united european project was aimed. iron bird. at the end of september , the czech government approved a plan to purchase 24 f-35 fighters. the contract value was $6.5 billion. as stated by petr fiala, prime minister of the czech government, deliveries of the f-35 should begin in 2031 and end in 2035. looks at the f-35

already romania and not only. experts are confident that in the current situation the aircraft will continue to conquer the european market. the states are literally imposing their aircraft on their allies at a huge cost. the cost of the entire f-35 program, including research and development, has already exceeded $55 billion. thus, the american invisible fighter became the most expensive aircraft in the history of world aviation. first, soviet production, which weapons were in european countries. soviet-style weapons were aimed at recycling to ukraine , then modern samples began to arrive, which are available in european countries, because almost all warehouses are empty, today the military reports that

there is practically nothing in army warehouses, including ammunition, but this is very beneficial for the united states, because that they now... now determine who should buy how much at what price from the united states in order to ensure the combat readiness of their armies, or those units of units and formations that are part of nato. on the noose of the american military-industrial complex is gradually tightening around the necks of european arms manufacturers, and as the arsenal is emptied. with their own weapons, european countries will simply be forced to purchase even more american military equipment and ammunition, otherwise their arsenals will be empty, this applies even to countries such as germany and france. on february 13 of this year, the us senate approved a

$60 billion aid package to ukraine. we will soon find out whether the lower house agrees, but even the american media, sponsored by the white house, openly say: these the investment will pay off handsomely. washington post columnist mark tison revealed the deepest secret of us military assistance to ukraine. most of the money allocated is actually spent within the united states on re-equipping the american army. he and his colleagues conducted an investigation, the results of which showed that at least 117 american enterprises produced weapons as part of assistance to ukraine. but they send it to ukraine itself. equipment, with the money allocated, workers all over america are creating new weapons for the american army, so that out of the 68 billion dollars of all the aid that congress approved for ukraine in the past , almost 90% of the money will remain in the united states, but the american politicians themselves are silent about this, just as they have been silent recently,

the military common fund of expenses, which works only for the united states , politicians of various ranks have stopped hiding the fact that previously veiled somewhere in hints and today in plain text, money is returning to the american economy, recently from mrs. nolland in an interview with cnn. we must understand that the bulk of this money comes back straight.

ukraine is a good deal for the united states, most of the money that the states provide to ukraine is actually invested here in the us, in buying american equipment that we send to ukraine, so it gives us all more. now there are 30,000 of them - these are the troops that will not have national subordination. for example, a german brigade of 5,000, which will be stationed in lithuania, will be part of this multinational contingent;

the americans will be able to transfer it to any point, without asking the government's permission. exactly according to the same pattern, issues related to equipping these quick reaction troops of the brigades occur, the americans occupying key positions, making decisions on the so-called nato military committee, and also lowering them. recommendations from the national ministry of defense are pushing their standards, just as they could now push the standard of a new fifth-generation aircraft in 35, they call it a family, actually putting everyone on their platform, on their system, killing national production, if they existed at all. including at nato summits, the americans rudely bend the leaders of different countries, without even hinting, but in fact ordering to increase spending on defense, that is, on the purchase of american equipment. here is the material from last year. the united states wants europe to buy american weapons and convinces european countries to do so.

the european publication politico reported this on wednesday evening. according to him , at the latest nato summits, european leaders again receive a signal from the united states to increase defense spending. privately, they are being urged to spend most of the additional spending on american weapons. this is not the first time that the white house is pressing on the european union. in 2019, the american authorities demanded from the eu countries access to military orders, threatening, in case of refusal, to leave europe without support if a military threat from russia arose. this was reported by the spanish publication el paiz. such conditions, called an ultimatum by the european media, were put forward by michael murphy, who is responsible for relations with brussels, at a meeting with representatives of the european union countries on may 22. it is important to recall here that americans influence european countries, including nato. according to the alliance's regulations, member countries must spend at least 2% of gdp on weapons. the rosewinds have certain standards in the field of weapons. you will be surprised, but they are

american. many are european. countries are buying javelin anti-tank missiles from raison and locket martin. poland signed a $1.4 billion deal this year to buy 116 m1 a1 tanks abrams, as well as another $10 billion agreement to purchase highly mobile artillery missile systems manufactured by locket martin. slovakia is buying f-16 fighters, and romania is negotiating the purchase of f-35s. these deals are raising concerns in europe. about whether they can refuse american defense suppliers? france and germany are concerned about the behavior of spain, which is a partner in the development of the european jet fighter, but is also buying the f-35. is there anything to worry about? joe biden, in order to help europe, in quotes, of course, expanded the list of supplies to the baltic countries, poland and denmark, that is, he again resorted to open blackmail of major european powers. berlin, paris and brussels

are trying to build a unified one. security system, but it turns out to be a unified earning system for the pentagon. if americans sold weapons only within their own country, then america would collapse immediately. this sale certainly has deep political implications. the united states is essentially fooling its arms clients by forcefully imposing its weapons on them, and the argument is always this: if you don’t buy, we won’t protect you from the russian bear. but under this bench there is more militaristic rhetoric, similar to... we hear threats from the kremlin almost every day, so we must take into account that vladimir putin may one day even attack a nato country. meanwhile, the bbc skims the cream of the crop for the american defense industry, the numbers are simply cosmic in the material in black and white. the war in ukraine has sharply boosted demand for

american weapons. and its exports in the last fiscal year, according to a state department report, rose to a record $238 billion. the volume of transactions involving weapons, as well as military equipment and services, that the us government entered into with the authorities of other countries has increased especially sharply. their total value increased by 56% to $81 billion, the remaining $157.5 billion came from direct sales of american military-industrial companies. war to the last ukrainian is a super profitable business for the united states. excess profits flow like a river, while european farmers, building manure barricades, still don’t understand. why relatives governments are forced to help not them, to sponsor washington through bottomless ukraine, when their native politicians finally have at least a drop of independence and respect for themselves and their voters. happily.

the information picture on monday will be complemented by sports day. hello! let's start the broadcast with the president's hockey cup. neman restores the balance 1:1 in the quarter final series against gomel. after an unexpected and painful defeat in the first match with the southerners 2:5, evgeniy letov’s team turned on all their might today the numbers on the scoreboard are 5:00 in favor. on black. kozyachiy scored a double, and osipov, azhgerey and malashkevich also scored. we made the right conclusions and brought out the right accents in the game. well, this is the playoffs, naturally, emotions will be a little overwhelming, but you have to be able to not give in to provocations. in another match on monday, the soligorsk miner destroyed the chemist with a tennis score 6:1. the miners took the lead in the best-of-four series 2-0 against.
