strongholds of ukrainian terrorist formations. margarita semenyuk, dmitry naido, lead. possible sanctions on liquefied gas from russia continue to be discussed in europe. meanwhile, supplies are rising. for example, in april, almost half of russian exports went to eu countries. details from alena logvinova. europe continues to purchase russian gas, despite all restrictions. in april, our country supplied almost half of its lng to the eu. the total export volume exceeded 2,800,000 tons. more than 1,300,000 were sent to european ports. asian countries purchased almost 1 million tons. this. data from the analytical company kepler, there is a kind of politics, a statement from politicians, and there is a business economy that does what is profitable for him, that is, if it were not profitable, then he would not buy fuel from russia, so russian fuel continues to be profitable, even despite the sanctions, taking into account

the fact that they still require a certain discount for certain risks, for origin, for certain various factors. then the level of profitability of russian fuel there may still be greater. yamal lng mainly directs its volumes to europe with minimal exports to asia; as statistics show, this project accounted for 95% of russian gas supplies to the european union. yamal lng annually produces about 20 million tons of liquefied natural gas. novotek sells part of its volumes under a long-term contract with total energies and the spanish naturagi. in most cases, yamal. immediately or after transshipment, ice-class rigs become the property of european transnational corporations. hypothetical refusal to use our fuel will lead to losses, primarily for the european companies themselves. refusal of russian gas is fraught with dire

consequences for europe. well, firstly, this is a reduction in consumption. at the end of last year, europe reduced consumption by 6%. what does this lead to? this leads primarily to deindustrialization. europe, that is , to the fact that industrial enterprises, which are forced to curtail their industrial volumes, are primarily deprived of gas. but the second factor is related to the unpredictability of gas prices; there are no guarantees that changing conditions, lng prices will skyrocket again. gas supplies to the eu via the turkish gas pipeline are also growing. in january-april, the figure increased by almost 40% and exceeded 5 billion cubic meters of gas. average. the daily pumping level is 42 million cubic meters, while exports via the turkish stream in the first 4 months of the year exceeded transit to europe through ukraine. since may 2022, the average daily supply volumes in this direction have decreased by half. if we talk about individual eec countries, the share of

russian natural gas in the energy balance austria reached 93% in march this year. in december of the previous year it was at a record 98%. we see. that in the spring of this year the daily load reaches peak levels, that is, it can be assumed that by the end of the year the pipeline will reach its maximum capacity, that is, 15.8, so this means that russian gas is in great demand in eastern europe europe, russian gas is the most important factor in ensuring the energy security of southern and eastern europe. countries get it in asia in april. interestingly, japan was usually the leader, but in april it was ahead of china, which imported 440. and this is a record. the dynamics are also stable, depending on

the production, which is all sakhalin, it goes to the asian market, under some super favorable conditions. but for the last 2 years, about 90% of the volumes from there go to european markets and there maybe a maximum of 10% goes to asia. the european energy regulatory liaison agency warns of a reduction in imports of russian liquefied natural gas should be approached with caution. we must take into account the imminent completion of the contract for the transit of pipeline gas from russia through ukraine. this will happen at the end of this year and could lead to the loss of 13.5 billion cubic meters, which is exactly how much was delivered along

this route in 2023. in vladivostok , an american sergeant was arrested for 2 months, accused of theft and beatings. he came to the far east, as he himself claims, at the call of his heart to a local resident. however, the love story ended, as later the investigator found out that he was trying to strangle a girl by stealing 200 thousand rubles. i looked into the details of this story. senior sergeant of the us armed forces gordon black meets a russian girl, on social networks she calls herself alexa viktorovna. the romance in korea turned into a long-distance relationship after the russian citizen returned to her homeland in vladivostok. after 2 years of dating, mr. black decides to come visit her and ends up in the news.

black went to russia on his own initiative; his superiors did not give him permission. all americans are warned to refrain from traveling to russia, and those who live there are urged to leave the country. the sergeant's mother, in a dialogue with abc reporters, said that the russian young lady worked as a bartender near the military base in south korea where black served. it was to her that the us citizen flew on april 10, despite the fact that he was at home. texas, not only his father and mother are waiting for him, but also his legal wife. i knew that something would happen, she twisted him, i hope they don’t torture or beat him there, it’s so hard to be a mother and find yourself in such a situation. media representatives immediately rushed to comment to the official authorities, why was black arrested in this dangerous, terrible russia? the administration is aware of what happened. yes, but i can't say much about this matter now. i hope you understand, it is better to address. his family, and the

us state department is providing the soldier with appropriate consular support in russia, given the sensitivity of this matter, we are unable to provide additional information at this time. the point is that the details they are too inconvenient for the image of the us army. according to the preliminary version, black raised his hand to the girl during a quarrel, after which the russian woman disappeared. police department investigators have opened a criminal case under paragraph 2 of article 158 of the criminal code of the russian federation - this is theft. the sanction of the article provides for liability in the form of imprisonment for up to 5 years. in relation to the person involved in the criminal case, a preventive measure was chosen in the form of detention. black was taken into custody at the hotel, and at the american already had tickets to the states in his hands. but instead of a chair by the window, the sergeant received. in a pre-trial detention center the pervomaisky district court of vladivostok remanded him in custody at least until

july 2. anna voronina, ivan kuznetsov, news. 2024 has been declared the year of lieutenant prose, this is the name given to works about the war written by those who went to war literally from school . in may of this year , four such authors would have turned 100 years old: ostafiev, vasiliev, drunina and akudzhava. the documents of these front-line soldiers are kept in the archives ministry of defense, i studied them. correspondent kurbatov. the central archives of the russian ministry of defense in a selection of documents of russian front-line writers who were born in may 1924. ostafiev, vasiliev, drunina, akudzhava. the front became the university for these boys and girls. how. wrote drunina, i do not come from childhood, from the war. these writers are known to everyone, their

books were published in thousands of copies, plays and films were based on them, some works were published only after perestroika. each of these writers had we have our own front-line history, and we won’t know much anymore, because dry documents record only awards received and injuries. the history of how the soldiers came out of encirclement cannot be in the archive. reading these documents, you can imagine how... it was, but no, you can’t imagine from the national sheet from september 22 to october 5 of forty years, comrade drunino, being in the battle formations of the batteries , repeatedly taking risks. with her own life, with a machine gun in her hands, repelled counterattacks of enemy infantry, during this short period of time she evacuated and provided first aid to 40 people, thereby ensuring the rapid advancement of our troops, that is, a girl who was 20 years old carried 40 adult men in complete deception with

weapons from the battlefield, provided them with first aid and also shot back from the nazis.

in 1942 he volunteered, in 1943 he joined an airborne regiment as a platoon commander, and in 1943 he was sent to the armored forces school. the autobiography says that he did not take part in hostilities, was not surrounded in captivity was. probably immediately after the war it was necessary to write this way. later, boris vasiliev talked about how he was in a destruction battalion at the beginning of the war. such battalions were formed from young men, they had belts from their uniforms, and a cap with weapons.

where is minsk? probably boris vasiliev's father, a career officer in 1930, understood that war could not be avoided and prepared his son for the likely test. when boris lvovich vasiliev chooses the profession of a writer, his father will even be offended, because everyone in the family was a military man. favorite song of victor petrovits ostafie on there is one village in kuban. in kuban, there is one camp. peasant son viktor ostafiev from the siberian village of ovsyanka, which he will glorify and where he will later open his museum. an orphan, an orphan, a boy with a lower education, at the beginning of the war, a railway worker who had a reservation. the registration card says that he went to the front voluntarily, on october 23, 1942, and served in the ninety-second gaol

artillery brigade. in the kiev offensive operation as part of the first ukrainian front.

on december 16, 1942 he was wounded under a mazduk, as established from documents, served since july 1943 in the 126th howitzer brigade, was a telegraph operator, in archival data he is arkady. carrying out a search through the documents of the red army soldier akudzhava bulat shalovich, we found inconsistencies in the documents. the fact is that according to all the documents that are in...

stushka was published in 1971, the sensational damned murdered after perestroika. the poet with a guitar in his hands, okudzhava, has a lot of songs about the front, the story be healthy shkalyar, later filmed and sent to the shelf. and one of the songs, actually a hymn to victory, a march, without which parades are indispensable, our tenth airborne battalion. no one but us, the graduates of the school valiantly defend their homeland. it came out of the walls of the school. 64 heroes of the soviet union and russia. 29. awarded this title for feats accomplished during a special military operation. for boris

vasiliev, the war is its expectation, the honor of an officer, the change of generations in the army, the main topics. yulia drunina wrote her first poem about the war in the hospital. poetry is always the first to respond to events. someone saw sweat and dirt, and... we, so thin, small in hundred-foot boots, reached berlin, when they asked her, what did you defend, what did you defend in the fight against

fascism, what was the main thing for you, she says, and i defended femininity, i defended motherhood, for television did not interview yulia drunina, she died in 1991, fortunately, boris vasiliev was filmed a lot in the nineties and zeros... so he tells how he created his story , he was not on the lists, he spent 10 years collecting material for it, in the brest fortress they came with wife zoriya at the beginning of 1960, they were allowed in, although the fortress at that moment was not yet open to visitors, they nevertheless let us through, i literally used all of it, and timed the dawn with a stopwatch, so much time i run to the next shelter, everyone knows how he could have run, how my hero could have survived, so it’s good there,

he will feel the ground full of blood fragments. the story was not included in the lists; it turned out to be a documentary. vasilyev's only hero, lieutenant nikolai pluzhnikov, fights in fortress longer than the real last defender, major gavrilov. the ending of the story is terrible, the hero is surrounded. in the story of kursk, in my opinion, it was when the germans had already occupied kursk, he was shot down and aimed until the last, drawing blood, until the last

plane. collapsed, which means all his legs were broken, and he fired until the last cartridge, the slavic defense after. the story, tomorrow there was war, vasiliev wrote in 1972, but censorship did not allow it until perestroika. this is a story about one class and, more broadly, about vasiliev’s own generation. later he will write: “boris vasiliev, like millions of his peers, before becoming someone, became a soldier.” many works by vasiliev. pre-war time and dreams of love, such is the life of girls, their memories of the actual war there are also few, basically the story really was in reality, but our male soldiers entered into an unequal battle with the paratroopers, vasiliev deliberately created a story about girls, vasiliev i called myself a romantic, everyone watched the film azorizaya element, and it’s such a bright thing. that is, i

would say that about war as terrible incident, uh, there are two writers' views on the war, the first view is a dark view, when everything is bad, people are dying, people are dying, everyone is to blame, absolutely everyone, well, the authorities in the first place, that's five miles , the second view is light, that is, despite everything for what. life goes on, and during the war there are some bright moments, these bright moments, they appeal to me more, vasiliev’s is light, the light prose of the war, and ostafiev’s, i would say, dark, after perestroika viktor ostafiev seemed to have burst, about why the writer frontline expressed strange opinions about the blockade of leningrad, they are still arguing,

the story of the damned murdered man turned out to be controversial.

why did you write that? but this generation was born after the revolution and the war was won by the guys who were born after the revolution. many writers and front-line soldiers found themselves on different sides of the barricades after perestroika, joined different communities and groups, but with all this, they always treated each other with respect and attention and appreciated the works of their colleagues, after all, these are front-line soldiers, akudzhava, vasiliev, kindly state, awards and prizes.
