and this happens due to the fact that the western, collective west, the western country led by the united states, they see their task as ensuring military superiority, refuse in every possible way to conduct constructive negotiations on disarmament mechanisms, disarmament restrictions, and such norms, mandatory norms... they simply don’t need it, their task is to ensure their superiority through what they call responsible behavior, responsible behavior, which implies the possibility of applying some rules in that direction, in which they require, which will ensure their military dominance, and the disarmament conference presupposes a confidential... and constructive dialogue of all

states, taking into account their interests, therefore, from this point of view, unfortunately, the negotiation work on disarmament issues at the conference has not yet produced no results, of course, their task is first of all to neutralize russia, to create a zone of political exclusion around our country, but... i must say that they are not succeeding in this, because we still have supporters on conferences on disarmament, which largely share our approaches, so this is the general situation now with the state of affairs at the conference on disarmament, and of course the latest events in the context of the northern military district and the situation around ukraine, they do not add...

constructively to the general attitude and the general the agenda at the conference lately , of course, there have been forecasts of a possible clash between russia and nato, and this is indeed so, because the united states, as we well know, is pumping ukraine with weapons, sending various kinds systems.

this creates, of course, a very tense situation, we are closely monitoring this and monitoring how developments are going in this direction, and of course, if this is the case, russia will be forced to react to this accordingly, but i would not like it to happen developments in this area, by the way, the disarmament conference, it

is the body that is designed to reflect the interests of all states in the field of disarmament and arms control, but as i already said, the situation here is unfavorable for the continuation of the negotiation process. but this question about the possible re-mothballing of nuclear weapons on british territory, is there a possibility that it will be raised in...

years have come to the conference in geneva with specific proposals, with specific initiatives, here is one of our initiatives - this, in particular development of a treaty that prohibits the placement of any types of weapons in space. do you think it is possible to make progress on this issue and what kind of reaction are you getting from the united states? just recently, just a month ago ago, everyone was discussing the launch of an american apparatus into orbit and thought for what purpose a top-secret apparatus could be launched here, then data appeared that it could be

a framework for a ban there, that is, thus giving them the opportunity to maneuver in the interests of their geopolitical interests in the interests of ensuring strategic superiority in this case in space, we are keeping this topic

afloat together with our chinese partners at the conference on disarmament, we believe that it can be one of... those that are capable advance the negotiation process at the conference, with regard to the orbital vehicle of this x-37v system that you mentioned , we asked the americans questions about this , but unfortunately, we did not receive any intelligible answers or explanations, we still have serious concerns about

the gaps that exist in this area, in the area of ​​both chemical weapons and biological weapons, to put a barrier to the possible use by terrorists of these types of weapons, we propose to begin this work, but as i already said, our western the partners are not ready for this, apparently, for the sole reason that such proposals come from russia, yeah. that is, there have been no such explanations as to why this russian initiative has actually been skimped on since 2016 , why, why are they against the development of this convention? they believe that , firstly, this is, as i already said, and the proposals are coming from russia and they

are not ready for this, but to be honest, without any serious explanations, yeah, well, here’s another question about american biological laboratories: on there is a lot about the territory of ukraine this has been said in recent years, how relevant is this issue now, is there any data on the current activities of american biological laboratories in ukraine?

for military purposes, everyone knows that we in the security council raised this issue and demanded the establishment of a special international commission to investigate this activity, but again our questions turned out to be suspended by the americans; they never gave us clear answers in the context of the activities of these biological laboratories on site. ukraine, but we we will continue this work, we believe that

all the questions we have asked are relevant and require solutions, this is necessary , first of all, in order to urgently strengthen the biological and toxin weapons convention, and we will continue to work in this direction, including within the working group.

russian, russian american, here strategic offensive weapons we already need to look at the broader context, in particular, we cannot discount the nuclear potentials of france and great britain, we cannot discount the fact that other types of weapons are being developed, all this must be taken into account as a whole, and not just... within the framework of the start treaty, and therefore , of course, the general, general political context

and policy of the united states and nato in in general, in the context of ukraine, this also leaves an imprint on this situation, so talking about start in isolation, the possibility of continuing some kind of negotiation process, is now no longer relevant and is not necessary. yes. mikhailovich, now i would like a little step away directly from the work of the conference on disarmament and ask in general about the international reaction to what is happening now in the new russian regions, after the recent strikes of the ukrainian armed forces on donetsk, when civilians were killed, you called on the office of the high commissioner for human rights to respond to the actions of the kiev regime , but they only expressed regret, so i was there on saturday. strike on lesechansk bakery killed 28 people, how will

the russian representative office in geneva operate and do you expect any reaction from international bodies, if there has been no reaction there for many years, isn’t it worth somehow adjusting the work there or changing russia’s approaches there? well, you know, we have these...

positions, pro-western positions, and very rarely react to our requests, and if they do, then, as i already said, this reaction is rather of a purely bureaucratic nature, so all this causes great regret, since

, after all, international human rights mechanisms should take a more objective position. and give an adequate assessment of what is happening, so we will continue to work with the high commissioner, we will continue to work with other human rights mechanisms so that this is the truth that we bring to them, this is the objective information that we send to them , still found it adequate on their part. and an objective answer and an objective assessment of what is actually happening in the context of ukrainian events. gennady mikhailovich, indeed, let’s hope that the answer will be adequate, and of course, in essence, these are not the kind of replies you are talking about, which you received in particular after the attack on the ssu in donetsk. well, let me remind you that

we talked live about the work of the conference on disarmament in geneva, which was opened last month. representative of russia, at the un office and other international organizations in geneva, gennady gotilov. gennady mikhailovich, thank you. dutch yandex envy will sell the yandex business to a consortium of russian investors and will cease to be the parent company. the total amount of the transaction is 475 billion rubles. in this case, the equivalent of 230 billion rubles will be paid in yuan outside russia. this was reported on the it giant's website. the parent company will be the international company yandex joint stock company, a private independent organization whose shares will be traded on the moscow stock exchange. yandex will retain almost all the assets of the yandex nv group, except for foreign startups and the data center in finland. the transaction parameters take into account the standard requirements for a discount of at least 50%. until july 31, yandex nv will change its name and

will stop using russian yandex brands. american tv presenter tucker carlson spoke with fans at a moscow hotel. he noted that he liked the russian capital and was interested in communicating with its residents and interested in seeing how everything worked. carlson also expressed bewilderment at the violent reaction of the american media to his trip. let me remind you that the visit of the american presenter became known this weekend when he was photographed in a large theater. what are you doing in russia? look i have so much i read about it, i wanted to talk to people and see how everything works, maybe interview putin, your visit to moscow blew up the us media. i don't know.

they are crazy, really crazy , we need to create the future ourselves and do it together, we are very different, we speak different languages, but we have the same aspiration, a diverse and open world for everyone, every opinion will be heard at the world youth festival, let's start the future together, find out more at fest2024.com, now footage from novo ogorev. you have one of the most large energy companies, i looked at the results of work over the past year, they are very impressive, i would say, and the growth in output. electricity and personnel growth and net profit of 135 billion, yes, yes, absolutely, yeah, how do you yourself evaluate the work for

2023? thank you very much for your assessment, this is the work of the entire large team of the group, then i will briefly summarize the past year, we traditionally compare our activities with 2009, this is the year when you signed an order to consolidate a number of assets on the basis... the place of loss by 2009 amounted to 135 billion rubles that.

the fact is that until may of twenty -two, we supplied electricity to western countries, and the prices then, you remember, were what they were; 5 months before the end, we earned 28.8 billion rubles. accordingly, in the twenty-third year this money no longer existed, and we had to essentially reduce the indicators by this amount, but thanks to the fact that you drew our attention in 2020 to the importance of development.

the largest holding in the field of construction work with total revenue of about 100 billion rubles order portfolio of more than 100 billion rubles. our key partners and customers are the faskati companies, interau itself, as well as the st. petersburg housing and communal services enterprise, gubtek and vodokanal. i note that with the cost of purchasing engineering companies amounting to 37 billion last year, they generated income of 20.5 billion rubles, that is, in fact, in a year more than half of the money was returned, and in the 2

years since the purchase of engineering and it -business, for which we spent 47 billion, the total profitability was more than 50 billion rubles, that is, despite all the difficulties with interest rates and the rising cost of equipment, we paid back this business in 2 years, well, by comparison, it paid off. basic generation projects range from 12 to 15 years, and we will further develop these competencies. the second key aspect of our activity, the most important, is generation. i will focus here on investment activities. from 2009 to 2024, the group built 10,400 mw of new capacity and invested about 650 billion excluding vat. we are also an active participant in your modernization programs. the total volume of tenders we have won is more than 10,000 megawatts, and investments will amount to about 185 billion rubles excluding vat. vladimirovich,

the most important project for us is the construction project of the novoland tes in the republic of sakha yakutia, which we must complete in 2028 with a total investment of about 257 billion. it provides for the creation of a complete energy cluster, including.

which were on the development of gas turbine engineering. vladimirovich, our third most important aspect is energy sales activity, we are the number one company in this direction. i would like to thank you for the instructions that you gave to establish a standard principle, tariff setting, where everything is set according to a formula, has the least number of different fluctuations in one direction or another, this led to the fact that the bankruptcy of large sales holdings stopped. you once drew the attention of power engineers to this, but now it’s not there, or it’s of a slight exceptional nature, although i can’t remember the last time there were problems, and debts on the wholesale electricity market are no longer growing , that’s it, they simply don’t exist, here i would like to draw your attention to one more of your instructions related to the creation of unified information settlement centers in the regions, we have created a whole series, the three largest, these are the moscow region ,

st. petersburg and leningrad. the region did this together with regional authorities, this is a big joint effort. i will give the result of the work of one of them. in the moscow region from 2019 to the twenty-third year, we were able to increase, thanks to the work of our center, collection of payments in housing and communal services, here and electricity, gas, water and all utilities . from 91.1% to 97.6%, that is, by 6.5%.

the fourth aspect, which is also the most important for us , is power engineering, over the last 2 years, when we were actively involved in this, we acquired a number of factories, this is the ural turbine plant, a leading manufacturer of steam turbines, these are two transformer plants, the voronesh transformer and sntt, located in petersburg, it means that one produces a transformer.

they work there too, everything is fine, there are no difficulties, and in terms of exports, about 10.5 billion kilowatt-hours, we export historical records to a number of countries, we are carrying out this work, replacing the supplies that we carried out to unfriendly countries with supplies to those who really want to take electricity, new markets have been opened , well, for comparison, from the eighteenth to the twenty-third year, we doubled supplies to non-eu countries, we will continue.

saving these resources from...
