if you are a colonel of the state security committee of the soviet union, you know for sure that life in general is divided into three categories of people, these are officers of special services, these are people recruited by the press services and people who will be recruited by the press services, there is no one else, but people who are not officers, who are recruited, or will be recruited, they are fools, because only a fool is not... an officer of the state security committee of the soviet union, that normal people, normal, with normal thinking, with normal values, men, they are officers state security committee, and where what it can be a man, it’s still others, it’s either or it’s just some kind of thing that doesn’t lend itself to analysis, some of them are just civilians, it’s just that we don’t consider them to be people, they go there, they say something, that they are some kind of bandits, well that’s it it doesn't matter, especially when i'm still part of the criminal world in pursuit. or

are they patient soldiers whom we generally despise, because they have weapons, they are in uniforms, but they can’t even, we can just tell them like these dogs, let’s go to the leg, ugh, let’s lick me something, and he will to be done by a person who knows how to drive a tank i don't know if there is a missile launcher there, but if i were, i would launch a missile launcher at the kremlin, and it simply obeys. and they still have an incredible disdain for the army, ugh, which means disdain for the army, so there are problems with this main intelligence department of the general staff, what are they real intelligence officers, and they are analysts, and they are military, and what are these jackets, this not people, a real man, he should be more than just a scout, he should be able to shoot, kill, ugh, and there is a problem between the chief scout administration of the general staff and the federal security service, this is also an eternal problem.

one problem when we talk about terrorist attacks is the relationship of all these two organizations with the ministry of internal affairs of the russian federation, from the point of view of both the fsb and the central intelligence agency, the police are not people at all, because they are just something, i don't know how it is call it intelligently on the air, because it is clear there that it, which walks the earth there , collects this money from the poor. well, when it is shared, it is good, but what is it? but this one a policeman, he feels like a white bone compared to these people, because he thinks that he rules the people, they sneak among the people, he is actually the master of the people, remember, there were cases when the policemen just shot people there in the supermarkets mo, this it's just like that, because i can do anything, you've never seen it, and i saw how in moscow this

precinct officer comes to your... apartment, like the owner, like the owner of your apartment, he sits down opposite you , what's the matter, give us the documents, show what you are doing here, i live here, i am registered here, it's my property, come on, i'll keep an eye on it, i don't like your place of birth, your date of birth, the people in it, and he, and you don't know, that is, you don't really understand how to er... deal with it, ugh, i was at one time, when i was just living, well, i had accreditation from the ministry of foreign affairs and that was it, i thought that i was completely protected, nothing happened until the moment i already applied to some authorities, called there to the press service of the moscow city hall or to the press service of the ministry of internal affairs and i said, listen, i'm a journalist, i'm being terrorized by your district inspector, is there any way to make sure that he went to someone else, not to me here, and they changed, but these, well, but i can, being... journalists this

to do, and if you can’t, you know for sure that this is how they feel, why should they respect some incomprehensible people there who are involved in some organizations, and they also have a branch at the ministry of affairs, and they believe that the department that deals with this prevention of terrorism and of all this, he is more important than the fsb, which means that each of these gangs is a gang in uniform, real bandits. she may want to put her foot down so that someone falls and the owner understands how important we are, uh, we, and it's an eternal struggle, and so when something real starts, here i am scrokuholi, these don't arrive, they don't arrive, those they don't leave, everyone says how could they drive 40 minutes, when the krokus... is specifically adjacent to

the complex of government buildings, the moscow region and judicial institutions, which is protected by the first, i would say discharge, right there on the territory. all this is a special police unit, because this is the government of the moscow region, it is a serious organization that, according to moscow standards , must be seriously guarded, where were all these people, there is a special police unit nearby, they also did not come, that is, they did not come, because they were just drinking on friday, i don't believe, they came because they wanted the fsb officers to come first, huh. to put them first under all this, it's an absolute, because it's their jurisdiction, a terrorist attack, and we 'll see, let them come, let them not will do, let them die, and then we will come and restore order, the rosguard, and they, each of them, when he sits and hears such things, he thinks not about how to send an outfit, but about how

to make it so that a competitor appears first in a difficult moment, and i came when i can look good, well, there are many of them... and every time you analyze these things, who, what, who heads the staff, what does he have for it, when was nordost, uh, the headquarters of the ministry of internal affairs, which ultimately organized this terrible operation, was headed by the deputy minister of internal affairs of russia. of the federation, volodymyr vasiliev, who was, one might say, the soul of this operation, yes, he, everyone believed that this was a catastrophic situation for him, well, i apologize, i apologize, what

is sergei, volodymyr vasiliev, doing now, he leads the faction of the united russia party in the state duma? you understand, you deserve it, well, because if you take part in such an event, your career is secured vasiliev, precisely because he took part in this operation on dubrovka, which was very important to putin, because it started the strengthening of authoritarianism , ugh, him provided himself with an absolutely unsinkable career for the next ten years, despite the fact that until this moment... when he was the deputy minister of foreign internal affairs of the russian federation, no one perceived him as a political figure at all, he was just an ordinary, one of the ordinary officials of the ministry of internal affairs, without political

ambitions and opportunities, what is the head of the united russia faction, this is a serious figure, that's what. one way or another, he may have the enormous trust of the president of russia, vasiliev, by the way, he headed dagestan, and arrested half of management, after all this, this means that the owner trusts you, he succeeded, he succeeded, he succeeded in impersonating others and showing his effectiveness, well, now, when we look at the crocus, there will also be an analysis of the canvases, now and also when someone will shoot , so to speak, someone will be shot, so it is also necessary to clearly ... understand this whole situation, so it is a very difficult story, i think that it is necessary to sit down, really sit down, analyze all this, and then we can, if we we will have time for some consequences, to understand what he is

in general, i would like putin from this terrorist act, even if he was not, let's say, its organizer, or just a person who wanted to take advantage of the consequences. or he may now believe that he was framed by wrong information, so this will also be a conversation, who, who, which of them, this is also a serious conversation, i constantly think about the consequences for us first of all, they can be both positive, if putin will begin to figure out who could have given him false information or distorted information because there is a stereotype, i don't know if you are with it agree, the more mess in the russian federation, the better. for ukrainians, well, how can i say, i don’t think it’s that either, you see, i generally think that you have to deal with a predictable enemy, the mess very often leads to making decisions in an emotional state, which no one will make in a state of predictability, because if a person is in an emotional state, he does not think

about the consequences, whatever the art of public administration, even in a totalitarian state, requires that you are able to calculate the consequences of your actions, even when you make decisions. about the use of, say, tactical nuclear weapons, if you are not able to calculate the consequences in a situation of chaos, or at all, you do not think that the situation that has developed in your management, the consequences matter if you start to live. today, your decisions are far more dangerous to the outside world than those when you are in a state of predictability, a predictable dictator is better than an unpredictable one - even in war, that 's why everyone wants to deal with xi jinping, he looks like a predictable dictator, uh, not even that, he can't be calculated and predicted to the end either, but we count on him calculating the consequences of his actions, yes. you are sitting opposite him, and you are biden and so on, you understand that you are talking to a person who calculates

the consequences of one or another of his decisions, that this is a working computer, and if it is not a working computer, you would yes, and you think it's good that he doesn't work, but then he explodes, well, it's about trump now thought, i don't know, good, i don't think that trump is as unpredictable as we think, but it is, trump can play such a game, by the way, here is trump - this is historical. trump held a beauty contest there, it seems that there were contacts with his these these women, after which, it is believed, some kind of compromising material on a millionaire appeared in russia, the owner of this complex is agalarov, this is a former business partner of trump, this is exactly the place , where a memorial plaque could be hung on the steps of city hall, here in such and such a year, world beauty pageant. conducted by donald trump, when russia becomes a democratic state, it will be possible

to rename krasnogorsk to trump city and invite trump to the renaming, well, that is better than krasnogorsk, let it be trumpogorsk, it is also good, yes, and if you invite all these honorable women, citizens , i hope, of the russian federation, in the rank of no less than major general, ugh, who met with trump on that unfortunate evening for him. these women could open this plaque. so. ot. well, if we talk in general about what it also concerns us, this is the meeting of advisers on national security issues. i would like to return to her after all. if she was. if it was, in what format was it. and, mystery covered, i can say one simple thing. the very fact of coming to the ukrainian capital. jake sullivan for literally a few hours, uh, means that he discussed with

the ukrainian political leadership some information, some strategy, which could not be discussed through the closed channels of some of this closed channel of communication between the white houses and banks, because you can well imagine that in order to say to the ukrainian leadership, it is even fantastic: oh, you know, we are very worried that you are shooting at the russian in... overrun factories, please don't do this , for this you do not need to go to kyiv, the ambassador to the united states of america in ukraine can calmly meet with the relevant persons in the president's office and say this: this is a small secret, talk about it, but if you have something that you really need to talk about talk, some such information, you then you drive at this level. at the level of national security adviser, go to

absolutely special situations, and it's also a big problem that we don't know this, how many times jack sullivan was in the middle east, almost not how many, well, yes, although this is now the main principle story for of the biden administration, but the secretary of state goes there because he goes there to talk about consultations, the director of the central intelligence agency goes there, yes, who talks to his counterpart chief. masado there now they seem to be in qatar some are being discussed there the question of whether it is possible to cease fire there or not is clear, and the adviser to the president does not travel, not because he is disconnected from issues of the near east, but because it means that he does not have any special information that he could discuss with his israeli colleagues, why did you have to go somewhere because we understand that the secretary of state is having a political dialogue, the director of the cia is having, i would say, a specific instrumental dialogue with ... the director of masada, and the assistant to the president is talking about some sensitive information that

only two or three people in the room should know, the president of the united states there, the secretary of state, and myself, but what is the reason why the secretary of state and you should not draw attention to this conversation, and so i will come for a few hours , i'll explain everything to you and go, well, it was something mega good, so to speak, i don't think it was good, rather it was, it wasn't good and not bad, it was. it could be some kind of explanation, what will be with the help further, in reality, what are the capabilities of the administration, what are they really like there are russian intentions, what is happening with'. process where the russians can fool the chinese and the saudis and so on so that we are under no illusions, a lot of things could happen, but it's very difficult to predict, and i think, i'm very glad, by the way, that there are some things that we don't we know, and which do not write telegram channels, and are associated with certain structures, because this is already a great happiness, because i imagine what a temptation

to say, oh, you know, sullivan came there and such and such ska, oh, that's how many views, many more. subscribers, so there is something that they understand is possible have serious consequences, if you make such information public, then there is something that convinces even such people for whom pr, everything, everything, there is nothing but pr, something that just forces them to keep their mouths shut, it's great, and they definitely have this information, but well, well, how do they, well, i have, well, these people who were talking in the hall, they should already be silent, in what sense? yes, it means that this is also talking a lot, they grow up to understand that something is not necessary, even as they always say that it is not this, the father says, the son does not need this tell mom, you understand , you don’t need to, and it’s hard to understand, well, that i drank beer with the boys, you don’t need to tell mom, she will be upset, and so the child grows up little by little, understands that not everything needs

to be told, that something you have to do it yourself, be responsible for your own actions, that there is some information, huh. ugh , well, this is the moment of the political maturity of the bankers, well, conditional, we don’t know, maybe they can’t stand it yet, but they are holding on, they are holding on, they are silent, it’s good, it’s necessary, i’m generally confidential information, you know, you said that we should have military censorship in general, what are we going to learn about, you and i will talk about politics, not about military censorship, we should not know what, where, where, where we got to, what got here which weapons did not reach here , which ones did, where is the military base, where is the training ground, we discuss all this constantly, as if we are talking about some location of higher educational institutions, but it seems to me that we are talking about what we are allowed to know, i would like to hope, not about being an optimist, well i would like to hope so, but the military enterprise is in the registers, and then, oh, and

a rocket got there, who would have thought, and this is it? which has been circulating for a very long time, and we even had specific attacks that indicated that we are in trouble from this situation, why do you not fix anything, a process to clarify the understanding that not every information should be printed in large letters on your forehead, but are ukrainians ready for the fact that not everything will be shared with them, i hope, well, if they want to survive, then they should be ready, if they want not to survive, then let know everything that is needed, will take this information with them to the cemetery. ugh, okay, a few more words literally on the shelling, dniproges, we spoke with many experts of the military plan, and they note that the russians could not help but know that it is extremely difficult to destroy such an object with missiles, to disable it, even for a certain time, realistically, but to destroy

it in such a way that it would lead to a catastrophe similar to the kakhovsky gas, well, no, if it is not a nuclear warhead. and some, some, some believe that the russians may be raising rates this way and hint at the fact that they will and may be ready to use exactly this type of weapon, well, this is a difficult analysis, it seems to me that they simply could not have set themselves the goal of destroying the de, they could have set themselves the goal of reducing the energy capabilities of ukraine by for a certain time, well, they are doing it anyway, why can't they hit dniproges, if they took hp-2 out of control for a certain time. they can, during some subsequent attack, destroy the hes-1, well , it won’t be destroyed, it just won’t be to work and produce energy, well, if it will be several months in a row, well, this is an absolutely instrumental approach, if they believe that this electricity, let's say, is used for work, including military enterprises, they may want to slow down their work, why for this

you need a nuclear charge, well, you will constantly hit these power plants with... destroy the strategic energy system, it will decrease in volume in this region, it's not even a question of light in the houses, it's a question of how much energy it is necessary for certain enterprises that are either connected to the military-industrial complexes, or simply those that bring some income to the budget, well, reducing the budgets of the ukrainian ukrainian state, it is also absolutely logical from the point of view that all these incomes, they go for yes, yes, but we saw it from the other side. fired at just about everything that could be imagined last season, and well, it did not lead to concrete consequences of a military nature, or at least did not lead to those that she expected, they can just carefully. to prepare, to choose absolutely specific targets, so that they take into account what they did there before, and now they really fight absolutely point-and-point on specific targets, because they wanted to think that they would destroy that

power plant there, in that in that in that , well, they created such a picture, it turned out that the picture does not work, well, now they can create another picture, by the way, you should not think that they are all brilliant people, they can come up with a plan that will not work, how many such plans have there already been, but they they are trying, they first hit the military-industrial complex, now they are hitting the power system, then more. hit someone, they, listen, they carry out , what do you call it, they have a plan of measures, this is a bureaucratic system to the ministry of defense of russia as well, uh, and they have a plan of measures , the destruction of such, the destruction, they have to report, they they report to geratsima, gerasimo reports to sheiga, patrusho reports to shega, patrusha reports to putin, once again putin will see the result, well, one thing or another has been disabled, but to strike with a nuclear strike at noon... progress, this is not shigu’s decision , nor will it be patrushe , this is putin’s special responsibility, and he too can think, and what is there, what will be the point, well, we will destroy this dnipro with

a nuclear strike, we will create a precedent for a nuclear strike, and there will be no there is some other hessa , what, well, there is no kakhova hessa, what , what kind of luck is it, that it so seriously changed from the point of view of war, uh, well, imagine, the use of nuclear weapons must also be, you know, justified from a political point of view and in terms of consequence, we simply believe that we are hers used as a conventional weapon, just to destroy some hydroelectric plant, it's somehow very strange, even for putin, uh, primitive, i would say, nuclear weapons should be used as a last resort, the use of nuclear weapons should lead to the fact that the state against on which we used nuclear weapons, capitulates the next day, and if we destroyed dniproges with a nuclear strike, then we simply created another ecological disaster, another first... column texts in western publications, also by using nuclear weapons, with completely unpredictable consequences, we do not know what we will get, it is one thing to not foresee the consequences,

when we hope that this will be the last nail of the sparrows of ukraine, and another thing - it does not foresee the consequences, when we just want to destroy some power plant , which we did not mention for two years in a row, in fact , well, somehow, i say, one must always measure the decision and the consequence, in the light of the information that the russian federation can... prepare in the near future, because several years - it in fact, the closest time to confrontation with the countries of the north atlantic alliance and so on and so forth. the russian federation should once again confront the countries of the north atlantic alliance in such a way, from the point of view of its own security, that this confrontation does not lead to the need to use nuclear weapons on one side, once. another thing is that i do not really believe in the military capability of the russian federation for such a confrontation, because again. i would like to remind you that for the past two years the russian federation has been at war with a country that does not have a modern army, modern equipment, which fights with western weapons, and as a rule, not very new ones,

because we hear the same thing all the time: we were given such and such planes, tanks, missiles , and so on, and poland bought everything new , and slovakia has already renewed its army, and this one, you know, it looks like in some supermarket, where you just put on everything new, and here you take it to the counter and say... come, please, you want to take it, this too well, i wore it three times, this, and then it turns out that the russian federation even against these weapons, it cannot really respond, and the whole problem is that these weapons are not enough, if they are enough, then they generally stop in the offensive, and now imagine that they are fighting with the armies of a country in which new weapons are much more modern than russian, and they have already updated all this, thanks to its war with and she dismissed all of this with the fact that all the huge reserves they took from the soviet union, and now she actually lives on what she produces, well, she started some kind of

real conflict, she understands that the nuclear weapons cannot be used, because there may be a retaliatory strike, there is a war with conventional weapons, how many russian federations will be enough, if even more so some nato country there, france or great britain, as a result of the attack, destroyed some russian weapons at the airfields and so on and so forth , struck the military facilities of the russian federation, what to do next? well, uh, so, again, we come to the wonderful story that we either have to surrender, or go nuclear, or, but, either they can, or negotiate with them. well, i don't understand what the point is. and, that is, of course, to scare with a conflict with nato is a good topic. the soviet union always did this. and by the way, you remember the power of the soviet union, which, by the way, the soviet people did not realize. it was because the west was afraid of his attack. so. we lived in a beautiful world where the soviet people were convinced that nato was going to attack them, just as the russians now believe that everyone wants to attack them, all at this time, without intending to attack anyone,

we lived in... a situation when we were sure that the soviet union would attack here and there, and now putin is creating exactly the same atmosphere, this is a return to the time when everyone in the west says, well, of course, there are 3- 5 years, they said this all the time of the cold war, all the time there were 3-5 years left before the attack of the soviet union, they thought where it would attack, drew maps, if you look at the press of those years, here or there, here and there are the soviet people too, oh, nato will attack us, we have defenses'. you have to study, go to military training classes to defend, they want, they want to destroy our beautiful, our beautiful future , you can imagine the level of this schizophrenia, you know, i remember this beautiful story, how i just laughed, when they started turning these autonomous regions into republics already in the gorbachev era, and the leadership of the jewish autonomous oblast of the russian federation decided that it, too, would rename the oblast a republic, and there was a rally in the city of

smidovichi. from new york and from tel aviv and from london from this decaying horrible west they will come, they will come to us in birabidzhan and smidovych, and they will take our beautiful apartments and work in our collective farms, and here you will not be able to work in the cowshed, comrade petrova, because all, all our opportunities will be virtually gone. busy with these terrible jews who will flee to new york at the first opportunity, but he still spoke sincerely, and by the way, you can look at the constitution of the russian federation for proof of what i am telling you, the jewish republic there is not appeared, the people of the jewish autonomous region successfully defended himself from the jews in new york, imagine the level in which all these people lived, they were simply schizophrenics, they were 40-45 years old there, the vast majority of these people had the consciousness of six-year-old children, well... and

the soviet leadership calmly everything was manipulated by these idiots, and the same was the case in the west by and large, they may have been adults, but they believed that such a society was wild, would definitely attack, definitely, that's why the soviet union actually funded the peace movement on to the west, because he said: listen , you understand that you have to fight for peace, so that we will attack, and the west, you have to somehow restrain your bourgeoisie in its aggressive desire, because we will answer, we have lived this way for decades. i believe that we have moved into this very historical period and soon there will be some kind of putin peace council in berlin headed by sara wagehnecht and they will be leading these anti-war demonstrations, well , to be honest, i am not surprised by all this , because we have all already lived in this era, beautiful there was a situation, you know, not again,

you understand, there are people who are politicians , who are... revolutionaries, well, there are many of them who change the world around them, there, you know, there is a certain napoleon bonaparte , alexander the great, i don't know, there is lenin, ugh, but there are people who are counter-revolutionaries, who want the situation back, everything back, there are the bourbons who returned after napoleon, putin, but putin is no longer a revolutionary, he is a counter-revolutionary, why, because he thinks exclusively that it should be done as it was. here we are all the time we discuss everything he does, he just does it, he pulls out a folder from somewhere, reads it, as if you know it, a performance in an amateur theater, let's do it, as yosif veseryonovych did, he used to go out to us, let's do this, let's do that country, let's make such a relationship with the west, let's make and live a wonderful life, as our father and mother used to do, and this is of course terrible, because you and i are hostages of this desire, you know,

some kind of vampires who simply drag us into the past, why do you want forward? it was so good there in the past, let's go there, but we don't, we want to just go forward, no, you have to go backwards, well, here is the whole story with which we will end our political club with khrystyna, i thank you so much, khrystyna, i thank vitaly portnikov, next saturday we will meet, be with espresso. greetings espresso viewers, it's time to learn about the most relevant events at the moment, and i'll start with this: the russians killed.
