the russian military may soon deal a serious blow to the kiev regime, since the ukrainian authorities do not want to negotiate. vladimir putin spoke about this with representatives of various municipalities and emphasized: those who return from the special operation zone should take an active part in the work of regional structures. anastasia yafimova has all the details. the meaning of work is the happiness and well-being of the native country, a truth that the president recalled at the ceremony. presentation

of the all-russian municipal service award. it gathered 700 people in one hall. they all greeted the president standing, just as they stood and listened to his speech. the head of state presented the service award in a special category. it is called the destiny of man, the pride of the fatherland. and the winner was ilnara safina, the head of the rural settlement, the administration of the mishchegarovsky village council from bashkiria, among the finalists, the heads of villages and cities. including new russian regions, as vladimir putin put it, strong people of steel. the strength of spirit of our defenders fatherland, their deep awareness of patriotism is certainly amazing; i repeat, if they have a desire to further apply their best qualities in various spheres of civil service, this desire must be supported. they show perseverance and dedication.

who at the local municipal level helps the soldiers on the front line, with attention and care supports the families of our military personnel, this is the most important national task, which has enormous moral significance; of course, the key to solving it is to see the specific needs of our heroes, veterans, to respond promptly and sensitively to all this. local authorities, of course, are closest to the people and for sure. it’s a very difficult job;

citizens usually turn to all their troubles and questions, as vladimir putin put it, not to the kremlin or the white house, it’s important that their door is open to local officials. the president spoke about this at a separate meeting with the heads of municipalities of various russian regions. your job is the most difficult because you work directly with people, you have to answer questions that you have nothing to do with right now. is not within your competence, but still people come first of all to you, they can’t get to moscow, the kremlin, the white house, i hope they get to you, but uh, of course, the work should be structured in such a way that your competence coincided with the amount of funding and sources. to strengthen the personnel potential of the municipal government, it is worth paying attention to those who return. from the area where the special

military operation, the head of state spoke about this from the stage during the presentation of the award, and then during the meeting he returned to his thesis and developed the idea. of course, we must pay attention to the guys who are returning from the zone of a special military operation, these are still, you know, people, when they decide to do this, yes, when this crucible passes, they return, yes, many life priorities are lined up differently. here you won’t be jumping around without pants at any events, you know, it’s completely different here people look at life, the priorities are different , the values ​​are different, such people, if they have an inclination for work of this kind, of course they need to be attracted to this work, so of course it is necessary to attract young people, as we like to say, this is a cliche, but nevertheless he is justified for the young future. they

feel their generations better, they let generational things pass through them better, which means they can react more subtly. this meeting was attended by the heads of towns and villages from various parts of the country, the far east, the north-west, the urals, siberia, all as one, without saying a word, mentioned the responsiveness of the russians, their willingness to empathize and help in any way they could, this is also done in the belgorod region, which has now itself become a front-line region. the recognition that the west began the war against russia a long time ago, not even in 2014, is increasingly being heard in the public space, and yes. from european politicians, unexpectedly. just recently, the former president of the czech republic said something very frank and very important. the war in ukraine, she said, did not start in february twenty the second year, and in the summer of 2008, when

the decision was made to open the door to ukraine and georgia, the doors to nato. let me remind you that ukraine received its independence on... the basis of the declaration of independence, and it was written there that ukraine is a neutral state, this decision in 2008 radically changed the situation in eastern europe and from the point of view of ensuring the security of russia, in addition in 2014 there was also a coup d’état and the declaration of russians in ukraine as not the titular nation, and this was followed by a whole series of other decisions. which were nullified there and in fact, they cited what is happening now in latvia, there in these other baltic republics, when russian people are simply thrown out beyond the cordon, you see, these are very serious things that

directly affect the security of our country, while the same western politicians they still don’t notice kiev’s attacks on peaceful belgorod, on city squares, on ordinary people, no shouts... address to ukraine, no reproaches, no one even raised a finger. why are the kiev authorities doing what they are doing, shelling peaceful cities, populated areas, they hit squares, what is the military sense in this, none, zero. why do they do this? there is an answer, to show your people their sponsors, who provide money for weapons and ammunition, to show that they are able to respond to russia’s actions. when russia, in order to solve one of the main tasks of the demilitarization of ukraine, carries out targeted strikes on military infrastructure and enterprises of the military-industrial complex throughout the entire depth of ukrainian territory,

with high-precision long-range weapons , they are trying to show that they they can also do something, but instead of deciding... nuk didn’t let me down, people who, well, without even starting to do anything, have already lost everything, they betrayed their ancestors, their people, betrayed their people and their interests , and traitors

never win for a long time, they can grab something there, steal something, drag something away and devour it somewhere under the deed, but there will never be success on their side. no one has ever made an attempt, and in general it ’s not clear what it is, now this is not the place, we don’t have time for this, but we are our own interests have always been protected, now we will protect

, it is impossible not to notice the changes for the better that have been taking place in recent years in cities and towns, but the most important thing is that they are seen and highly appreciated by local residents, this is a consequence, among other things, of a well-established dialogue, the municipal government listens, hears people, only... there are, alas, more solved problems, as the president noted, than solved ones ; many issues and citizens require special attention, which means work continues, work that is increasingly called service. well, now more about the laureates service awards. it is awarded for contributions to the development of municipalities and improving the quality of life of citizens. in total, almost 19,000 applications were received. how did you choose the best? anastasia ponko found out. the all-russian municipal service award is being held for the first time. it is assigned to subjects, those people who make a special contribution to the development of municipalities, making people’s lives better. better and more comfortable. my land, my pride, one of ten nominations. each project is

a huge effort to preserve the culture, history and traditions of the municipal district. it is these projects that increase the growth of local tourism, create new jobs and strengthen the regional economy. the activities of local authorities are complex, very significant work, sometimes unnoticed, but very important for people, which requires the ability to solve not only daily problems, but also set goals for oneself. on the front line, with weapons in hand, at the cost of their own health, and often their lives,

others work on the ground, in the localities, who else but you know the problems and aspirations of small, remote cities of russia, people, i express thank you for your hard work and low bow. minister of economic development maxim reshetnikov awards the winner in the small motherland, strength of russia category. projects in this category make the lives of citizens better and more comfortable. the fact that the russian economy has adequately passed the tests of recent years is a huge credit to you, because not a single project in the country , be it small business projects, is directly responsible for you and they directly depend on what you do in your municipalities.

decisions, without your support, without your none of these projects is possible without your support, and in the end, in many ways, the state of the economy depends on the mood in which people come to work, and this depends on how things are going in the municipalities, then the winners take the stage , whose projects for the introduction of digital...

implementation, the opportunity to scale the project in the future, then the winners were chosen by

the residents of the country themselves through online voting, almost 3 million votes were cast for participants in the all-russian municipal service award. over the past 4 years, about 15 million requests from citizens have been received through new communication channels to the authorities, and 67% of them came from municipalities, so we would like to thank you separately for this colossal work that... you are doing in for the country as a whole, and we definitely understand that we could not have done it without you. despite the fact that the award is new , an impressive number of applications have been submitted, with almost 18,500 participants from each.

in ireland, a large-scale rally against ukrainian migrants. several hundred people took to the streets of the city of roskra, where the local government most often exiles ukrainians. he claims that because of this , the crime rate in the city has increased many times over, and there have been fights and clashes with the police. ekaterina radaeva will tell you how the attitude towards ukraine has changed, and why the west’s vow of eternal support for kiev turned out to be a fiction. there is no more money for kiev, ukraine will not receive anything from the states in the next month. biden is not going to use reserves. white house national security council spokesman john kirby said he doesn't know when the situation will change. our latest security assistance package for ukraine was approved on december 27th. we are not currently working on

forming another. there are no announcements about the preparation or dispatch of a new package. the next negotiations between the republicans and the us presidential administration on the allocation of funds for ukraine ended in failure. no decision has been made. washington hopes that the european union will now pay for everything, but there are few people willing there either. if we want to help ukraine, then aid must be provided in a way that does not harm the eu budget. giving 50 million euros to this country in advance for 4 years in advance is a violation of the budget.

did not go to ukraine, israel would never have been attacked, the situation in ukraine is terrible, the situation in israel is terrible, and we are going to resolve these issues very quickly, this should not have happened, and now a lot of people have died, many more than you think, more than anyone could have guessed. the kiev regime is doomed one way or another, said the former adviser to the head the pentagon, douglas mcgregor, noted that zelensky is leading the ukrainian nation to extinction. millions and millions of ukrainians left the country, they will never return, the already poor birth rates simply collapsed, people do not create families, and the family is the key to the survival of any culture. the sad truth is that ukraine as a nation state is, i'm afraid, at an end, but here we continue to pretend that it is something viable and real. the european commission

is preparing a new proposal for financing kiev. the issue will be discussed at an extraordinary summit eu in brussels. will be held in february, where the results of the audit will be presented with the help of the armed forces of ukraine. german chancellor olaf scholz demanded to calculate and compare the volumes of supplies to ukraine. berlin does a lot, but the rest shirk, says scholz. ekaterina radaeva, news. an exhibition dedicated to the people's artist of the soviet union, vasily lonovoy, has opened at the victory museum. today he would have turned 90 years old. at the exhibition of memory they led. sofia sergieva visited the artist and true patriot. he was considered the first handsome man of soviet cinema, called our alain delon and a model of civil courage. today the people.
