building materials for the restoration of destroyed houses, equipment for hospitals repaired after shelling, or even rebuilt schools. during the mass evacuation of residents of the republics in february twenty-two, on the eve of the start of the northern military district, aid collection points for refugees were opened in the largest cities of russia. volunteers accepted food, dishes, clothing, and basic necessities. they collected toys and books for the children. with the beginning of the nvo, assistance extends not only to the donbass, but to the kherson and zaporozhye regions, to all liberated territories. here are the dry numbers: from february to october 2022, until new regions become part of russia, customs posts of the rostov region at checkpoints processed more than 5,000 vehicles with humanitarian cargo, their weight is about 89 thousand tons. the flow

went on around the clock. today, when there are no longer borders, the help is not getting less. and it is sent not only to the residents of novorossiya, but also to the soo fighters. they bring the things and equipment they need. supporting those in the trenches on the front line has been a tradition since the great patriotic war. but the main thing attention continues to civilians. on the anniversary of the admission of new regions to the russian federation, vladimir. emphasized: all russian regions provide truly fraternal assistance to the donbass, zaporozhye and kherson regions. today we are also creating our common future together, restoring and building schools, hospitals, houses and roads, museums and memorials. all our regions provide truly fraternal assistance to the cities and towns of donbass and novorosiya. to this work.

and religious organizations, parliamentary parties, entrepreneurs and labor teams. the whole big, united country, all doing a common cause. the story of anna efimova tells how helping novorossiya became a conscious choice of a large number of different people. moscow is a warehouse where sorting and packaging of all the variety of cargo that will soon be sent to donbass is underway, here there is food, books, warm winter clothes, both for civilians and sponsored military units. we write down once in the inventory what it is for, so that the goods do not get lost. svetlana mikhailova in the past a successful screenwriter and journalist, today the owner of two state awards of the dpr is one of the main achievements.

there are snipers who work for you , you can see everything, look into this pipe, you will see, here i can hand the most useful and practical in combat conditions, how mass production has been established, and will it be according to need, no, the point is that this in general , now it’s the first time it’s going to the front, the moscow-donbass volunteer group has already sent 69 convoys, the scale is impressive, but the results of their work are being evaluated here very modest. we do not replace the state, we do not set out to replace the state, we are small.

they started studying you first, because history is unlike anything else, well , let’s face it, probably since ’45, there haven’t been conflicts of this level, every month a volunteer... of the russian humanitarian mission goes on week-long business trips to deliver everything necessary and collect information locally about what is still missing. volchastskaya spiritual clinics lead children and adolescents with mental problems disorders. now, thanks to volunteers, there is a modern interactive panel for classes and special rehabilitation equipment. weight vests, exercise bikes, hanging swings. help is coming from abroad. one of the italian foundations, for example, purchased neonatal cribs and a stethoscope for the mariupol maternity hospital. glucometers, pumps for oral feeding of newborns, in short, there are still people in the eu who put humanitarian issues above political ones. the activities of the sos-donbass volunteer group began with rallies against oppression of russians abroad resulted in the creation of an extensive volunteer group providing assistance to residents of donbass.

the head of the group, anna novikova berne , first came to donetsk in august 2022 to compare what the french media were writing about with what was actually happening. now she is cooking. edits another european humanitarian convoy. we have eight participating countries and 30 collection points. this time a slovakian who lives in austria will come with us, he offered his help, offered his truck, and most likely the french will go, i i'll join them at the border. however, assistance is provided not only to people; zoos, equestrian clubs, animal shelters, and veterinary centers also need supplies and rescue of the abandoned.

people, actions, while some are thinking about the root causes of what is happening and transferring humanitarian missions have one thing in common, this is responsibility on each other, they really help when you are sitting there in this dampness, you have enemy drones flying above, they can fly in at any moment, then there is life there, it feels like it is of course

so acute, they need support, moral support, the consciousness that there is a whole country behind them, and this is a huge country with a huge heart, a country of caring and empathetic people...

and they were sent to south ossetia, why did this cause such a huge response from the townspeople , among the odessa residents, in general, then i saw how, firstly, this was, in fact, a difficult process, yes, on the other hand, events were carried out. with the ministry of emergency situations in this area, i saw how well-functioning a fantastic machine it is inside, people who have seriously devoted themselves to humanitarian work, we need to understand how much work this is, work - this is also because you also have to interact with people, with people in need, yes, and this is actually psychologically not even simple, organizationally not easy, that is, this is a very big deal, so those same white convoys of 2014, they remained in the memory in such a powerful way, even immortalized - in the donbass, what was their role, why did they make such a strong impression, it was the summer, august

of the fourteenth year, when in the first place, for example , the city of lugansk, it was located in absolute blockade, at some point it was simply surrounded, because ukrainian troops failed to capture donetsk, and lugansk was actually surrounded, there was no light, no water, and that is, it... so to speak, literally into the flames they scattered these ukrainian rules in front of them, so to speak, and these imchesovites marched

, it was of course a huge risk, and it must be said that, well , these are also absolutely crazy things in ukrainian propaganda; those who encountered this there are amazed, which means they published photographs, for example, this is a truck, yes tented, from under the awning there are some angular shapes sticking out, well, there are some boxes with something there and there, so they drew such infographics that under the ministry of emergency situations, yes, and of course, then it was just like that salvation for a huge number

of people, for the whole city, because i repeat, the general was brought there right away, that is, it starts right away, that’s when the ministry of emergency situations, yes, turns on, right away this is a comprehensive approach with already enormous experience in humanitarian missions around the world, you need to understand, this front is moving along one of the most urbanized regions in the world in general, people literally live there everywhere, yes, if it seems to you that there really is no planting in the steppe, that is, there can only be gas everywhere, everywhere. assistance, of course it changes, what has changed , logistics, necessity, assortment

, the most important thing is the border, because, unfortunately, yes, but this is how this area is structured, that customs, yes, it generally lives its own life and with their idea, and the humanitarian workers fought, fought against this customs, all the time and there they met halfway, again there always at the central office in moscow, but they called, well... but it was all in a manual mode and it made everything very complicated, of course, yes, that is, we know that there are still checkpoints there points exist that there is no passageway, so to speak, and so on, but there is the need to declare customs there, and so on and so on, this is of course very much the difference between then and now is significant, and then we know behind each settlement and district of administrative unit are assigned this means that their curators are not central departments, so to speak. yes, yes, chefs from the regions , that’s absolutely right, this patronage assistance, it

has such a very wide range, in the humanitarian sphere it also works, because something goes there somehow along the budget line, but always the region can attract additional resources, help people, for example, last winter, mariupol faced such a heating problem, because the entire housing and communal services system there was simply destroyed, and it was impossible... to restore it so to speak, there is monovenium and it’s just that , including my good, good friends , they simply understood this problem and began to simply supply the city exactly. as humanitarian aid, so to speak, just to find manufacturers there who are ready to give away heating devices there at some minimum, so to speak, price, yes, to find people who are ready to provide this, including, of course, the donetsk people’s authorities the republics also got very involved in this, they pushed there at the level of advisers, they certainly helped, but in as a result, the city was simply so provided with these electric heating devices that

at some point the local leadership of the energy networks, they just came to the humanitarian aid workers and said, guys, they say, you know, if you still... bring us these heaters in the truck, yes, then it’s just that the networks will go down, because all this, too , was restored in earnest, so to speak, so people quickly switched, they said, yeah , it’s clear, that’s it, electrical equipment is no longer there, but there was still a problem with insulation, yes , that is, some blankets they began to sort it out, so to speak, simatically, that is, this is such a quick opportunity to respond to the problems of ordinary people, which is why here humanitarian workers find themselves literally on the front line and often arrive earlier. ukrainian troops in some advanced positions can hunt for such people, and not only those who help the front, these people take very serious risks and sacrifice themselves.

thank you, sasha, for the interesting story. among those who played a noticeable role in the development of novorossia in the 18th century were not only the great commanders and significant statesmen . marshal alexander suvorov, prince grigory potemkin of tauride, but also smaller figures. one of them is the governor-general of ekaterinoslav and tauride, platon zubov. zubov’s reputation among historians, to put it mildly, is unambiguous, the last favorite of catherine the great, who used personal charm to achieve the highest ranks and wealth; in his early 20s, he made a dizzying career, from seconds of rotmester to governor general and became the richest man in russia. in life potemkin, catherine’s closest associate and the main ideologist of the new russia project, zubov

constantly weaved intrigues against him. after the sudden death of his serene highness. prince of tauride, the empress appointed platon zubov president of the college of foreign affairs, head of the black sea fleet and governor-general of new russia. unlike potemkin, catherine’s last favorite, led the lands entrusted to him from st. petersburg, without leaving the capital, but if not for him, then the main black sea port of the russian empire would most likely have become not odessa, but ochakov. zubov supported josephareb's idea. ochakov, with this alone plato zubov earned himself a place not only in the history of novorossiya, but on the monument to the founders of odessa, next to

catherine the great, deribas and potenkin. the ukrainian authorities demolished the monument in 2020, but it is unlikely that in this way it will be possible to rewrite history, about the trace platon zubov left in it, in the plot of olga mokhova. according to historians, platon zubov really deserved a place on the monument to the founders of the city, opened in odessa in 1900. without being generous, on the contrary, not in measure wasteful, he not only supported the ideas of the mayor deribas and... the shipyard and hospital, precisely on the site of the tatar khadzhibey, but also petitioned the empress to allocate significant sums from the treasury for these projects, but on another monument in honor of catherine ii, erected to few wounded in odessa in 1873, there was no place for him. the monument that is behind me, on it

, the question was discussed whether the figure of zubov should be depicted here, but there were no teeth... passed a strict selection and he was not among those comrades-in-arms catherine, who surround her on this monument in st. petersburg. well-mannered, fairly educated, not particularly talented, but not untalented either. such characteristics were left to us by contemporaries about platon zubov. he was brought closer to the empress by court intrigues against the so-called potemkin party, which held power too confidently and for a long time. and after the sudden death of grigory potemkin, catherine the great set out to make a tooth. worthy successor to the most holy prince, therefore she endowed him with the same positions, powers and generous gifts. look how long the period of time is. will cover almost all of catherine’s later years, until his death he will be next to her, for this it was necessary to have not only a beautiful face, not only a beautiful

figure, but, of course, a certain skill and certain ideas about the arrangement of the state mechanism. and the matter, of course, is not only about the empress’s sympathies. russia of the 16th century is an absolute monarchy, where power is entirely with...

he has direct access to the sovereign and so on, that is, he is an important figure, but not an independent politician, before doing anything, he asks the sovereign whether we can or cannot do this, the sovereign says, yes, then we will do it. platon zubov served as governor-general of ekaterinoslav, voznesensk and tauride from 1793 to 1796. the last decade of the 16th century saw the third stage. territorial expansion of novorossiya. in january 1792, as a result of the peace with the ottoman empire, the ekaterinoslav governorship included the lands

between the dniester and the southern bug, and a year later its borders will be the regions received by russia as a result of the second partition of the polish-lithuanian commonwealth . the south begins gradually, we take, in fact, the northern black sea region, the territory of novorossiya, to give back. the empire , which has quietly invested quite a lot of money in the development of the south, begins with the plowing of these southern lands, and begins something that, by the way, is extremely rarely talked about: the gradual economic rise of the empire, which will last until the beginning of the 19th century and a little further. in 1795, the port of hadzhibey, by decree of catherine ii, was renamed odessa in the same year. the empress orders the start of construction in the valley of the lugan river, the first iron foundry in southern russia. expeditions to evaluate deposits

of coal and iron ore discovered on the territory of present-day donbass were carried out on the initiative of grigory potemkin. and under plato zubov, profitable cooperation was established with the british. it became possible to invite a large number of specialists from england. let the nevros fleet be as it was. before that there was a whole diaspora there we had an english one in our navy, but at least we had engineers, and we, to put it mildly, had a severe shortage of our own military engineers during this period. of course, platon zubov could not fulfill the outstanding role that grigory potemkin played in the history of new russia, just as he could not stop the development of the northern black sea region. his main historical merit is that he did not kill him; on the contrary, he promoted the progress of the work begun by his predecessor. one might even say that he could not help but continue them, because he himself catherine was interested, naturally , you must master

and develop new annexed territories, this is a long process, walking, yes, we must install a new management system, this cannot be done in a day, in a year, you do it gradually, after the death of catherine. zubov fell out of favor with the new emperor paul i, and then became involved in a conspiracy against him in his murder. under alexander i, new russia was divided into three provinces: ekaterinoslav, kherson and tauride. they existed in this form until 1920, and the governor-general of these lands were completely different people. olga mokhova, anastasia popova, valery savelyev, typical new russia. this is all we wanted to talk about today, kirill vyshinsky was with you, see you soon.

promise me that you will sing from the bottom of your heart, i promise, the night will pass, a clear morning will come, my happiness awaits you and me , temporary musicians.
