is russia changing in any structure, is there a revolution? and we start with the latest reports on the progress of a special military operation in ukraine; fighters from the vostok group of troops thwarted an attempt by the ukrainian armed forces to carry out a rotation in the coal tar area. in the southern donetsk direction, our artillery and aviation destroyed another 16 enemy temporary deployment points. four drone control stations and an ammunition depot. the scandal surrounding the published conversations. the german military about attacks on

russia is acquiring new details, as the german ministry of defense confirmed negotiations buddhasphere officers, quote intercepted in the luft sector of the vaf. the audio recording is real, the department has already stated this, and the fact that scholz allowed this to happen only means that his government has fallen into a puddle, military journalist florian flade stated. the bundesfer is disgraced, he also stressed. the bundeschancellor simply sat down... all this exposes the german bundeswehr in the face of its partners as an army that is unable to keep secrets. there are questions about why such dangerous political topics are discussed in this way. the hijacked conversation could create tension between berlin and nato, the wall street journal noted. the german military admits that us, french and british soldiers have been fighting in ukraine for a long time. the nato structure is completely rotten. the alliance is lying to the world about this. wrote the leader of the french

patriots party, florian philippou, on social networks. nato has been at war with russia for a long time, everyone is told that this is not so, he emphasized. the central match of the nineteenth round of the russian football premier league took place in st. petersburg. zenit played with spartak. who won? about it alexander abramov will tell you. the almost three-month winter break in russian football passed quickly. the russian premier league returned with the matches of the nineteenth round in the first. in the same round after the resumption of the championship, zenit in st. petersburg hosted spartak, they played until they made mistakes, both teams tried to play as reliably as possible in defense and the match did not score in the number of scoring chances, to win we did not have enough sharpness in attack in the end we needed to play more actively, and those moments that there were better ways to use them. behind one of the team leaders, quincy promes, did not play in this match. the dutchman was released from the police station in dubai, but... pingsi is still on

the territory of the united arab emirates, and he cannot leave the country back to russia yet. the situation around queens on the eve of the match somehow greatly strained you within the team. did you pay any attention to this at all? i will not say anything about this situation at all. can? the day before the match, spartak released an official statement. when quincy returns to the team's location, he will be accepted disciplinary sanctions for the fact that in fact he missed an important match for personal reasons. against all odds, quincy promesa. waiting back. much has already been written on this topic, there was an official statement from the club: we are waiting for quincy, we hope that he will return and continue to be with the team, i have nothing more to add. spartak coach vladimir sliskovich led the elimination team, head coach guillermo abascal was disqualified. on the day of the match, abascal even returned from st. petersburg to moscow. zenit and spartak played 0:0, that the very case when expectations from the match slightly exceeded what happened in reality. with

impressions when the score is 0:0 , there is always a slight feeling of understatement and some kind of dissatisfaction? and of course it will remain, because you want to win every match, but unfortunately today it didn’t work out, but the most important thing is that we kept a clean sheet from behind, this is also very important for us, for me personally as a defender, so we will work harder, in order to score more goals, we lacked a little precision in the end, already in stoppage time we were very close to snatching victory. tactically , the match turned out to be almost perfect on our part, our actions were especially good in defense. spartak has not been able to beat zenit in st. petersburg since 2012. the series continues. alexander abramov, stanislav petrov, dmitry timofeev and umar tuskaev. news: st. petersburg. and now footage from telegram channels is uruguay, the city of montevide. he literally drowned. cars and even small buildings are literally floating around the city. people barely stand on their feet because they are strong.

my name is maha, i'm from morocco. what are your emotions? this is simply incredible. three, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1, on television screens the title is russia

sochi. this is where the festival kicks off. there were 12 thousand people in the auditorium; participants from russia rehearsed the anthem even before the ceremony began. russia is our beloved country. mighty will, great glory is your heritage, all the time. acrobats in the air - laser show. the ceremony surprises with special effects. the show begins with a love story between two young people. heroes grow up, learn, encounter with difficulties familiar to everyone, anywhere in

the world. and now suddenly huge columns appear, along which young people climb. and during this composition, all participants took each other’s hands, representing unity and peace. the president of russia, vladimir putin, also addressed the festival participants and noted that our country is open to dialogue. you are the young generation, you dream of what a safe, just world can and should be, and it is up to you to create it. will give you the opportunity to discuss it with your peers and make sure your the discussions will be interesting and useful with the widest audience, as well as your impressions about the events that will take place at the festival sites, and of course, about russia itself, about the people who live here, you

will personally be able to see that, for example, a smile for it’s not just a mask on duty, it’s a sincere expression of feelings that if we give ours...

well, you know, probably, that there are 193 countries in the united nations organization, we now have representatives of 190 countries on the platform, and well , almost the whole world. anna makai from texas shared with us that in russia she has already found new friends. it’s very cool here, it’s warm, and there are also a lot of guys from different countries, and i like that you can meet and communicate. russia is not so scary, but we really like it, we like the hospitality, which they really don’t look at here.

heroes have already accepted over 14 thousand applications. the personnel project, on the initiative of the president , was created for participants and veterans of a special military operation. highly qualified people will be trained from among them. he won more than 85% of the vote in

each state's caucuses during his speech before voters, trump, as usual, continued to harshly criticize biden and said that under the current president, america had lost its former glory and was humiliated on the world stage. biden talks about democracy, although he himself is a danger to it, he has done nothing for our country. yes, he succeeded in the third world, but in america he was unsuccessful. well, many politicians strongly support the republican, so the governor of idaho said that it is time to get rid of biden and solve the problem at the border. now the ratings of the current american leader are extremely low. only 17% see him as president. and again in sochi, a new gas pipeline was built near the village of vardane. the fuel line was built. in record time, the first houses have already been connected to residents, daniil knyazev talked. the launch

of the gas distribution pipeline in the village of vardane took place in a solemn atmosphere; the symbolic fire was lit by the local residents themselves. most importantly, a huge thank you to all the builders, engineers, technologists who today very quickly, in in the shortest possible time, everything was done very quickly, now all residents can quickly connect, first. connection agreements have already been concluded; the new gas pipeline will provide natural gas to almost 1,500 households. at the end of the twenty -third, beginning of the twenty-fourth year, we built high and medium pressure gas pipelines in the village of vardane, with a length of more than 6 km, which will make it possible today to gasify almost one and a half hundred, or more precisely 1,496 households in the village of vardane. for local residents, connecting the village to gas is an event long-awaited. we heated and cooked here on wood or... it’s such a joy for us, if we have gas here, you can imagine how warm, cozy,

joyful it will be, forever gas should be everywhere, so gas is, well, so to speak , not just another standard of living, how people need to improve it, yuli danilyan’s house was one of the first to be connected, the owner has already managed to check how everything works, connecting to gas, according to yulia , will help significantly reduce family expenses. this is a big gas saving, because we were heated, we have diesel heating, and hot water, a boiler is electricity, that is, heating and hot water are very expensive in general, and gasification is of course more than half, i think it will be cheaper. blue fuel will be supplied to social facilities, schools, post offices, but gas workers still have a lot of work ahead; this year workers will begin building new ones. in

britain they are finding out why the first launch of rocket 2 in recent years failed, experts attribute this to the problems of the fleet as a whole, what other versions did our subcorrect understand? in the kingdom, alexander khabarov? folgarskaya square is known throughout the world, named in honor of the british victory over the combined fleets of france and spain. in the center is a column topped with the figure of the legendary admiral horatio nelson. he was seriously wounded and did not live to see the end of this battle. the empire for whose interests admiral nelson died has long since disappeared. yes, in britain itself they are increasingly asking the question where the former power of the fleet is. the united kingdom today has fewer warships than south korea and... japan, what a mistress marey is here, so garatio nelson, to put it mildly,

would be very surprised if he knew the current state of affairs. on january 30 this year, the british minister of defense grand scheps, his deputy james cartlidge and the commander of the royal navy , admiral ben key, almost died during a test of the trident 2 ballistic missile off the coast of florida. the missile was supposed to hit an imaginary target almost 4,000 miles away, but instead crashed into... we understand that trident 2 was not equipped nuclear warhead, it left the submarine as expected, but the first stage boosters did not... i have to read the second part of the article,

the government calls what happened an emergency situation, claims that if the launch had taken place in a real one, not a test one. engage in other information maneuvers, trying to at least somehow explain the embarrassment. it was rather an anomaly related specifically to the training launch. we remain confident that if we really had to use a strategic missile, this would not happen. happened. veterans of the royal navy rushed to mundir's defense. the former head of the admiralty, lord west, claims that

there is no problem with the recently repaired british submarine; the american-made missile is to blame. these exercises showed that all parts of the submarine work as expected, they worked on its modernization for 7 whole years, which of course sounds funny, they spent a lot of money, but everything works and that’s good. before the launch, the americans tested the crew on a simulator on the shore and were very pleased with them, so everything worked well, the only thing that didn't work was the rocket. my understanding is that some special equipment was attached to the rocket, which prevented the engine from working. after the missile left the submarine. the rocket did not take off precisely because of this equipment; if this had been a combat situation, there would have been nothing extra on the rocket. previous tests of the triiden 2 rocket also failed. britain conducted them in 2016. then, instead of targets in the south atlantic, trydon flew home towards the united states. mechanism

the self-destruction of the rocket allowed us to avoid disaster. these manipulations of the british are observed by their alliance, not without surprise.

it was launched in 2019, but since then has been subject to constant modifications. in 2020 , a leak was discovered on the ship; 2 years later , the aircraft carrier was again sent for repairs due to a propeller failure. the british fleet's problems are not limited to failed launches and other technical failures. the main problem is the shortage of personnel. in 2022 , the royal navy admitted that it was short of 700 sailors.

our nuclear deterrent. applicants must either be reservists or have military service experience. do you know someone who is ready to perform such tasks? britain has four strategic vengard nuclear submarines with nuclear weapons on board. they are all based in scotland at faslen bay. at a minimum, one of the boats must be constantly on alert in the arctic region. near this base since the 1982

cold war, whoever would think of using atomic weapons, no one will survive, no matter how many people die, and it doesn’t matter where in china, russia or india, wherever, the consequences of these bombs are catastrophic, this... in 2016, the british government hid information about a failed missile launch for several months, fearing the disruption of a vote on the costs of upgrading its nuclear capabilities. you are personally prepared to order a nuclear strike that will kill hundreds of thousands of innocent women and children. yes, i want to remind the gentlemen that the whole point of nuclear deterrence is that our enemies need to know we will be ready for it. the tridon project adopted by parliament provides for the construction of new submarines, the rental of american missiles, and the replacement of nuclear warheads produced in britain.

the publisher writes that the cost of upgrading nuclear deterrence forces is 34% of what is planned to be spent on technical re-equipment, and they continue to grow. according to a december report from the national audit office, the latest updated defense equipment plan. with a black hole of 17 billion. the main reason is the growing costs of organizing nuclear defense, which includes new attack submarines, four dred note ballistic missile submarines, and they are also developing a new nuclear warhead. since the previous report, spending had increased by 62% just a year earlier. in a devastating article about the state of the british armed forces and the prospects for their development, the economist cites depressing statistics and pessimistic assessments of experts. by 2025, the size of the british

army should be reduced to 72,500 people. only 148 will remain in service updated challenger tanks. britain and its ponata allies, in particular america, believe that the military power of our country is declining. are so small that they risk falling below critical mass, major procurement projects are going wrong, the defense equipment plan is not getting enough funding, and there is a conscription crisis. one of the striking examples of money spent without clear results is the long-suffering project to create the ajax combat vehicle, costing 5.5 billion pounds sterling. new infantry fighting vehicles were supposed to arrive in army in 2018, but due to endless miscalculations. ajax has turned into a real long-term construction. it took several years just to eliminate the high noise and vibrations, which is why the soldiers could stay inside the ajax for no

more than 90 minutes. the vehicle also could not safely overcome obstacles higher than 20 cm. the army still faces great challenges in becoming a reliable force against an enemy of equal or similar strength. we are talking about sufficient air defense, long- range missiles and... the army is concerned that that it lacks reconnaissance, surveillance, and artillery assets. the army was running low on ammunition even before it handed over its stockpile to ukraine, although it allocated £2bn to resupply last year. this money risks disappearing in the general haze of the defense budget. the british government claims that it spent 12 billion pounds sterling on ukraine, but this money did not come from the military budget and...

to strike ground targets when it turned out that the royal navy had nothing with which britain decided to join the military operation usa vs houthis. the chief of the general staff of great britain, general patrick sanders, who has combat experience in iraq and afghanistan, believes that...

i suggest you watch reruns of our original besagon tv program. i hope you remember them and enjoy them. next is the america program with valentin bogdanov. in this issue, there is an exclusive interview with our permanent representative to the un, vasily nebenzi, about what russia is fighting for at the organization’s site. united nations what challenges do diplomats face? this is america, a program about a country that is difficult to understand. hello. irresponsible statements by western politicians about the possible dispatch of nato troops to ukraine have once again raised the specter of world war iii. will it be possible to prevent it from

rising? thank you for responding , agreeing to the interview, well, they say that the united nations organization at one time was created not in order to provide everyone with a heavenly life there, but in order to... let hell on earth, judging by the last words secretary general won, we're on the edge. gutierres said that humanity is on the eve or on the verge of a nuclear apocalypse, do you agree with these words, secretary general? well, the hand of the clock, the famous clock that counts down the time to a potential world war, was moved almost one, not one minute before 12, this is

really so. but i think that guterres’ words still contain more caution than realism, i hope that it won’t come to this, everyone will have enough common sense and intelligence to prevent this, although of course, the situation now, many compare it with the caribbean crisis, the caribbean crisis was indeed an event that almost led to the third world war, then, as you remember,

the european union.
