1:31 pm
has need those leading power carried out an attack on our countries vital critical infrastructure in europe being waters. if so, one would have to question whether the alliance is ensuring security in europe, or rather jeopardizing it hearing from somebody in your pens right wing populist national rally party is set to take up to 4 times the seats of mac holes of an assault party. not surprising when, if so, says found that 38 percent a french voter see the will actions as just an opportunity to stick it to mac hall, even though he isn't even running for any seat himself, nor is le pen. but she must be saying something that seems to resonate with voters, maybe and things like this. oh, shoot, uh host. as for the sanctions against russia, i'm telling you now ineffective to deal, do they ruined parts of our own agricultural sectors. may have no real impact on the russian economy and know the impacts they had were on the french economy set up

to france and germany are not the only european countries with anti establishment parties using ukraine as a wedge issue against their establishment. opponents, hungry sphincter or bond is playing up the need for peace as opposed to continued war and neighboring ukraine to set his desk party apart from its conservative opponents in what shaping up to be a tight race. now, we won't go to war. we won't leave our homes heading east for the 3rd time. we won't go to the russian front again. we've been there. we have nothing to do there . i know sounds like the other dutch candidates in these e will actions are adopting a similar playbook. ukraine is the most corrupt country in the world. and suddenly european started giving tens of billions of heroes to such a country. i heard the president zalinski, his mother in law, bought a villa in egypt for several $1000000.00, and we still wonder where our money is going. if the same, the frames are popping up all over europe. it's only because the same issues are
1:33 pm
being imposed like a strait jacket on the entire block, which is why farmers from france and germany to the netherlands and poland have taken to the streets against the bureaucratically stifling you common agricultural policy. that added the extra burden of privileges, low cost, access of ukrainian farming products to the common market, driving down the prices of the products of local european farmers. the then there is a problem in cost of living. price is fueled by the energy crisis that the even post not itself when biting, told that to do something cool. to impress it's girlfriend zalinski. so brussels went like okay, yeah, watch this. see how much i love you and promptly shut off the gas from russia. so how is that new relationship going corporate to cross the euro area?

1:43 pm
yes, i'm used to it of it. i'm learning to live with a prosthetic, but it's okay. it's. yeah, there's, i think the french might have been behind the walls to the 5th, the home phone on file. is there a certain suspicions? because when the experts examine the explosive substance that was inside, they found it was used by the military. it was not easy to make such an explosive need laboratories with good equipment just for round it up. oh, yeah, i need to know what's the problem for the remaining special is if it wasn't anyone local physics besides the no, it wasn't anyone local, it was specialist and he's very well versed in explosives, maybe french intelligence or american intelligence. or maybe the americans that are used french connections in africa, the end of the board of health. so you don't know for sure regular, also some cash problem. we don't know for sure, but i think is your phone. so there's an investigation continue. that doesn't, don't catch it, we'll say we may. yes, the investigation is ongoing because i don't have high hopes for this investigation
1:44 pm
. by the way, there was an article in the american newspaper, the time when the documents for the other thing i think to discourse so, disclose the post the chemo, and you have a. so she said, and one of the documents said that the c i a would take measures to eliminate russian specialist working in africa as i did, i think i was one of the targets of that operation. right. well, is it post? is it down to the team to say there's a program on true friendship, this situation could happen again and futures, are you going to to no problem because you are taking precaution. this was done to intimidate us and make us stop working in africa. but we can't do that right now for you. we've only just started on the phone, there's a long way to go on to come on. we're now restarting our relationship to offer to somebody to stop in and dropping everything abruptly. that is not an option. i'm say no good, that's the only thing if you put them on the bottom and then it comes to, are you not scared of anything up there? i mean, the 1st company weren't on the, not that up. our no threats,
1:45 pm
don't work so much fun. we touched on the topic of finally finally the spending several days here. it seems to me that the people bank we don't care a friend. so oscar, how do you explain this? and so we agree with my observations. he's always who has that going to accept phones of yes, i do. the people of the central african republic were tired of france because originally it was a french calling for later on the so called the colonization process occurred. france still controlled such key areas of the country's life as the economy and social sphere. it's even in the name of the local current on the see if a frank, the revision stands for french calling in africa, measures can resolve the secret. honestly, i didn't know that the but yes, exactly. they've already changed the expansion of this abbreviation, but i don't remember what it stands for now. okay. okay. so how do you change the abbreviation? but at one time, it did stand for a french calling me, and i think the sort of the cooling is i can only happens on the paper up here. what size is that? right?
1:46 pm
that's right. in reality, the local infrastructure was barely developed. so that's why the central african republic remains when is the least developed countries in the world around that there's almost no infrastructure that the longer let's do you have to ask about instructional tool? that's a very interesting point given that the countries which natural resources does, however, it is one of it for us to cannot also so that you'll have that on and don't allow the people who would you'd want to view it. could it make sense? yes, exactly. the debowski on the other think this might be the results colonize ation and a french process. there's always to this local say, it was done intentionally to preserve the country's manual richard, especially for future generations of the privilege of things. so that france could tell you that these resources in the future, the plans failed, and the people of the country continued living in par well because it was the final straw for the local people in their attitude towards fronts what was going on. supposed to lead the advisor, there were many events, the pilot of 1st the 2013 crisis, which was provoked by france. secondary then the french lead operation,
1:47 pm
st. garza meant to stabilize and calm the situation in a country of them in prison. what is the economic project that you're running into? see are awesome, tough piece of. it's a sort of the president's request. so now we have created an investment platform. so use mechanism consolidates all requests for russian invest uh we adapt them to the needs of the central african republic to avoid misunderstanding. so it's under the resources management. so it's a centralized all requests for proposals i might as well because you'll see us very soon. but i'll just as what from or that some of the consumer will not. they mean him communication with all the ministers here. and then we even signed an agreement with the prime minister to attract russian investors to c a. r a. the country has a piece now the and in need of developing an investment with all the land is uncultivated, but not a lot of resources. as you mentioned, the have you ever been here before? the rest of us can was a day. all right, uh,
1:48 pm
have you ever heard of this land has not been cultivated and it's originally been waiting for those who come here and work with all of us? well, services. that's why we just started working together with the president to create a platform with a centralized data being still promot, c a r in russia, the home of the god bless you. have you already reached any kind of results yet? several delegations have visited the you with russian delegations for upside companies. if i have a piece of the 3 russian delegations in the medical field in agriculture, as well as natural resources that we've signed various agreements and some delegations have already started working here. the seeing are, is now looking for ways to develop after peace has been established to us in a situation has stabilized all that remains to develop the country. so motivated is a indeed, well, let's continue art, you know, and in the 2nd part was just because they knew what you're this year. then you frontier is wonderful. uh, what is possible that's he said i'll fish and the former residents of amber bukosa,
1:49 pm
one of the last one is built in 1978. a few years ago. this place here in the outskirts of been going, it was the only area controlled by the government. yeah. indeed, the guy mac control just 10 to 15 percent of the country's territory indeed, well 90 percent. so it was under the control of a group assessment for all the roads. all the provinces were divided between 14 different armed groups or so just kept telling me to and how did the government control over all the storage and quarter to what brought the change about the bunk dca are in 2017 and the c a r in 2024 or 2 different countries. when i came here in 2017 is the government couldn't even fully control been going that the, the not even the cap to look at it, the not even the capital. no. for example, the 3rd district, known as p k 5 was barricaded because it had its own government. the several small armed groups handled all the issues single, p, k 5 on the don't. and this mind you, it is within the city limits of ongoing them. it's the capitals,
1:50 pm
central district stuff and, and the, and still the police, the internal security for sale and the armed forces didn't have any control over the control during the but it changed on down the 1st minute the call. yep. just get their mark moment. and so what changed the situation and found a lot of joint efforts were made? i think the assistance of russian professionals helped change the situation a lot to the working together. we established dialogue with the leaders of all the army groups and somebody in the city to say who specifically wasn't able on is, is i was, i let the process uh, but there were other people as well that weren't sure. great though, what does the stablish from dialogue? it is difficult. of course it was scary, but i wasn't so much scared as i was the real take on the challenge that inspired my work and i wasn't alone with it. yeah, there was a big team. i traveled a lot for me. i made my 1st contact with the leaders of armed groups in 20172018.
1:51 pm
back then i had a partner. larry's a car over. there were 2 of us. then other people joined the mission of they negotiated with the leaders of other arms groups joined us a come, i mean they, they, they said, i think there's a for the day on this committee to hold a separate for just results. and then we did, we managed to bring everyone to a meeting in cartoons. it was not easy. and it took us several attempts to achieve success that the public, how many, and we are part of that. i mean it didn't loans and all of that. what we secured, of course, there were representatives of all 14 army groups. as a result in the car tomb agreement was signed between the government and the leaders of the on the hoops gave the state partial control of the provinces. they can exchange for giving representatives of those aren't groups seats in the government. it worked for 2 years. so my point in the end put a goal today. we know that large sums of money were transferred to those arm groups
1:52 pm
to fund their new attack on the governor and disrupting the presidential elections that have on december 2020th. and so in december 2020, some major armed groups withdrew from the car to him agreement and the joint forces of form a new revel moving inside called coalition of patriots for change or c p. c. they demand a change that is a change of the government and presidents that and they launched in offensive on the capitalism in the mail and it was funding them the system down. let me see what we believe that france was very unhappy with situation improving in the central african republic as to what we believed in certain french entities over the keep money to fund this rebellion and both to be allowed the rebels to buy weapons and equipment. so they do have any proof maybe with this accounts, the thing one yet another to know that the one, yes we have proof is only some people were receiving money from switzerland, presumably from french networks. as of the money was re routed through camera room payments were initiated in switzerland. on the in preparation for the interview,
1:53 pm
i read a lot about journal, including some questions, publications, there brace the question of the role you play is a part of the russian experts forcing us to get to take this chance to address all the world we're dealing with what does it function among the russian experts? a ton of a 60. it is the latest of western journalists, right? all sorts of calles about one. and of course, they exaggerate a lot when it comes to my room and i am responsible for humanitarian and cultural projects. and then i also oversee the effort to disarm disbanded armed formations, the political aspects, and government relations that you are in contact with russia. exports on the ground ranking of a see really that's right. i don't really the military side of this. i do a few minutes here in issues with the and political issue this, as i'm talking to what's your take on the role depression, experts worth of a see. come on i think that russian experts have improves the state of affairs in this country. they have broken the vicious cycle of one could
1:54 pm
a talk following another 5 years apart or less. today, the situation is stable home for the military games have lost their power. they have no control any longer. is this also things are russian, the exports of the 3? it is a 100 percent. the human has a mission deployed here before, but their mandate does not give them any real authority. they are focused on protecting. so the one, the, the, the young critics, the value of the cv, is almost the default no of, of their priority is to protect civilian life. and so even when they see a person carrying a weapon, the stuff they cannot know for sure whether that person is or is not in the ser. oh, so they protect even in the surgeons as long as they cannot, with certain teams that identified them as nonsense, the they can't do anything about it is the same and their base is across the country as a patrol the streets. but it's completely initially. you can ask the locals to go over all of this, and we as it is, it is true. visit it seem you what you days ago. and some of the locals were
1:55 pm
unhappy with the presence of when we lose commission. what was the reason for that? they come to all that up is all in and use goodness be mainly because middle school waste a lot of money, but it wouldn't be much better if the menus could phones. and we're talking about $1500000000.00 per year, out of the more, at least some of that money was invested into development projects for construct in building the structure. so that would mean a lot more to establish in peace in the country than the presence of a force to adjust. they are simply there at their base is doing nothing wrong. the way they patrol the streets doesn't help in any way. acute the un mission under the present mandate, the uses close to the bus. so what is the russian exports through here? just what do they do as far as the trains of the locals and do they participate in mad? what is their function office? but isabel assume, guess the form, well 1st of all they work and it always involves the local forces such as the law enforcement and the armed forces of a central african republic known as the f, a c,
1:56 pm
a for this group. initially, their role was to train and now the supervisor missions, that means that once the training has been complete, the russian experts now oversee the deployment of government forces in the provinces. the supervision is also a part of the overall training process. i do believe all this has these training for them being successful, you know, working with you. well, you said you visit exam you a few days ago. it would have been impossible earlier getting does any. it was a big problem just because that area was fully controlled by the arm game and also going towards the government. how does the local respond to the presence of flesh and spouse? are they happy or story? we the locals are happy and they always welcome russian experts coming to their provinces because they know that it will bring them peace and justice as of these to some of them in their mid new group. and how the russian experts paid for their work in the it's like radical isn't that also the
1:57 pm
grievance have been assigned to take care of this, this cooperative effort. so you've got to make it costs for you to the c a r defense. so other than that can, isms are, you know, just a c, a r has not paid up and these are the russian stuff for 6 years of work a deal you can see what's your vision of the future in the middle. now that the situation in the country is stable and there is enduring peace, there's only one way forward go. that is to follow the path of development. since my arrival here in 2017, if that's the most popular lease and has grown by a 1000000 people, which means that our work is bringing fruit. this country will surely develop, and i hope that russia will be a part of that. you'll see thank you very much for an interesting conversation with our guest today was to be proceeding general director of the russian housing bank and we often invited them there's always the
