russia remains open to negotiations on ukraine, but the format should be realistic. this statement was made by vladimir putin at a meeting with his belarusian counterpart in the kremlin. they also talked about the upcoming conference in switzerland, where the focus will be on the ukrainian issue, although it will be held without the participation of moscow. as you know, the idea is being promoted to hold

some kind of conference in switzerland, we are not invited there, moreover, they believe that we have nothing to do there, but at the same time they say that nothing can be decided without us, and since we’re not going there, it’s actually some kind of nopticum, they say that we refuse negotiations, they don’t invite us, they say that we refuse, but it would be funny if it weren’t. it’s sad, but once again i want to emphasize that we are for it, but not in the format of imposing on us any schemes that have nothing to do with reality, without russia, what kind of peace process can there be, there can be no peace process, well, maybe they are right that they don’t invite us there, because what can we talk to them about, what can we talk about with them? talk, if they are trying to gather more than 100 states there, what?

dictate something to us or persuade us, this is not a proposal for peace negotiations, i think that they, well, in any case, the opposite country to a certain extent painted itself into a corner, well, yes, when it refused negotiations in the hope of defeating russia on the battlefield, to inflict a strategic defeat on her, now they understand that this is impossible, they refused negotiations and now...

in the winter they did not deliver any blows, meaning that they did not want to leave her without energy supply to social institutions, hospitals and so on, but after a series of attacks on our energy facilities we were forced to respond, i remember this conversation, and even you were reproached in russia, that’s why they need to hit these pain points, the energy sector, you said then, maybe ... in a military way, i feel sorry for people, in kindergartens, in schools, if the energy sector in ukraine collapses, children and people will suffer, but these attacks on sensitive points in russia, well, that’s the appropriate answer, so again i think, that in ukraine there are many people who are mad, but not everyone, i think, they heard it and saw it, and now about the situation with... with floods in

the regions, and so the river level in the tomsk region increased by more than half a meter in a day, several villages and dachas were flooded. in direct communication from the region, my colleague anna medvedeva, anna, i welcome you, tell us what the forecasts are, in general, and has the peak of the flood already passed or not yet? tatyana, hello, the peak of the flood just began yesterday, in the area, within the city, they are observing the first progress in the evening. along the entire river, in some areas of tomsk, began the water is rising, in one of them the water has risen by almost 2 m, this is 3 m less than the critical point, yesterday the gardens of the partnership were flooded, in baturino and vershinino, villages, more than 180 houses were flooded, almost 100 people were evacuated, among them there are and children, at the moment a...

the water level is rising. there is no ice movement in some places. the regional authorities do not exclude the introduction of a state of emergency if the scenario occurs. along the worst path, then additional blasting operations are possible, sandbags are at the ready in the villages, experts are now making very careful forecasts, those on duty are checking the water level markers hourly, so that if the water does approach the dangerous edge, they can immediately send it there equipment or specialists, and also evacuate those who have not yet managed to get out. for some reason this cannot be done, just to eliminate the consequences of the flood in the tomsk region, it was planned a grouping of forces of the ministry of emergency situations in the amount of 5,000 people, that is, this is almost 1,500 units of equipment, the situation is kept under

control, and therefore we are monitoring the development of events. in the near future , the villages of chernaya rechka are preparing for a flood scenario, now there is also a rise in water there. because ice has formed nearby, but that ’s all for now, colleagues, thank you anna, flooding in the tomsk region - said my colleague anna medvedeva. and in the country as a whole, the flood situation remains tense. so in another 20 water-filled barriers were brought to the kurgan region by a special aircraft from the ministry of emergency situations. the strengthening of the grit dam is scheduled to be completed today. regional authorities say the body of water is moving to the side. has slowed down, businesses in the orenburg region affected by the flood are being promised a deferment on loans. in this region , another 360 houses were flooded overnight. the water is gradually leaving the orsk region, but the level is rising near the regional capital. in the novosibirsk region, almost

the hypothesis of ukraine's defeat is again on the agenda 2 years after the start of the conflict. according to french politicians cited by the newspaper, ukrainians are asking paris for help in order to simply, quote, hold out this year, and

promise a new offensive in the coming year. but only 20% of ukrainian men are for... this is data from a ukrainian public publication, it also follows: 63% of citizens do not want to join the ranks of the armed forces of ukraine, the same number have a negative assessment work of military registration and enlistment offices. the fact that the idea of ​​a new counter-offensive was stillborn was recalled in the russian foreign ministry. according to diplomats, kiev’s bloody initiative will finally exterminate the citizens of ukraine. however, the alternative, both banking and its main sponsor, the pentagon, does not see the escalation. exceeds the entire production of the alliance.

the united states, like other nato countries, will not dare, military analysts believe, russia is threefold. the russian military-industrial complex works not based on profit, but on state interests. the management has no problems with the launch production lines, in the west the defense industry has been privatized and money is at the forefront. owners do not want to invest in weapons that may become irrelevant a few months after peace negotiations. this kind of thinking is having an impact on european manufacturing. russia is strengthening its defense industry and the economy as a whole, this despite the sanctions storm from the west - summed up. the print edition writes that the ukrainian army is being destroyed and no help can save it. moscow win this war, the only question is how far west will it go? troops. emil mersaev, news. now it's time for sports news. alexander, sensation, in the quarter finals of the europa league. tell me, which one? tatiana,

that the score was 3:3 and that we broke down, no, we played at that time, i think it’s better. today, on the contrary, by the way, there was a moment when the score really became 2:2 and well , they could have scored us a third, so it’s good that we earned this sending off. in the national hockey league, tampa bay forward nikita kucherov continues to rack up points in his record-breaking, historic season. last night kucherov gave two assists in the match against ottawa. thus, the russian already has 141 points according to the goal plus pass system. first place in the list of leading scorers, and most likely a future award for the most valuable player of the season. before the end of the regular season , each team in the nhl only has two or three matches left. in the europa league, the main sensation in the first quarter of the final matches occurred in liverpool. jurgin klop's team unexpectedly lost at home to atalanta, and liverpool lost heavily 0:3.
