example, the heads of midbriks came out in favor of granting palestine the status of a member of the un and once again confirmed their commitment to the two-state principle; as for the ukrainian crisis, here the heads of midbriks welcomed the proposal for mediation. in addition, during bilateral negotiations, the head of mid-china, mr. wang noted that beijing, in particular support the convening of a real peace conference on the ukrainian issue, which... is recognized by both russia and ukraine, i remind you that china decided not to participate in the swiss meeting on ukraine, in addition to the general meeting of the heads of diplomatic departments, the day before sergei lavrov held nine bilateral meetings, in dialogue with his colleague from ethiopia, he expressed hope that the prime minister of this country will attend the brix summit, which will be held in october in kazan, as for the conversation with the acting minister of foreign affairs of iran, speech in this...

expanded format, i will remind you that now brix officially includes nine countries and there are a lot of people who want to join. brihs is one of such associations where the principles of equal cooperation are implemented in deeds, not words, namely mutual respect, openness, pragmatism, solidarity, continuity and, of course, consensus. i am convinced that brix is ​​driven forward by the wind

colleagues, anya, thank you for the live broadcast about the final day of the meeting of the heads of midcountry brix anna voronina said. and now, during a special operation within 24 hours, fighters from the vostok group thwarted several attempts to rotate into the ssu in the areas of nikolsky and novodonetsky in the dpr. now our troops are approaching konstantinovka. this is an important strategic position. the liberation of the city will make it possible to deprive the vysu group of supplies in ugledariya, and at the same time develop an attack deep into the defense of the ukrainian troops. at the forefront of the offensive are units of russian attack aircraft. our military man has all the details. south donetsk direction, assault units of the marine corps of the pacific fleet are fighting their way towards konstantinovka. the advanced detachments had already come close to the direct road to coal.

they carefully prepared for the attack of our attack aircraft. the enemy has been creating defensive lines since 2014. some of the protective structures remain. assault units usually work in small groups of three or four people, large concentrations of people are easier to detect from the air, which means the risk of coming under fire is much higher, units attack from different flanks, they are trying to deceive the enemy, the enemy tried to engage us in battle, their artillery helped them, artillery and mortars worked on us. i worked very closely, there, every 5-10 seconds we were bombarded with airborne missions, well , nothing, we got there, walked along the very central street, during the offensive the infantrymen always work with the support of uav crews, they are on duty in an ambush, not far from the strike group,

the operators coordinate attack, warn soldiers about possible threats, if necessary, provide fire support using drones kamikaze. stormtroopers are always at greatest risk. since they work in the so -called red zone at the very forefront , they create a springboard for the subsequent advance of the remaining troops. the drones also transmit the coordinates of targets to artillery, mortar crews and tank crews. fuck, look how solid it is, the units are 70% made up of contract soldiers who have real combat experience, the rest are volunteers. they must undergo a training course at the training ground, which lasts at least one months. a fighter with the call sign pepper in civilian life worked as an auto mechanic, but at the beginning of this year he decided to... voluntarily sign a contract, do you remember your first fight, your feelings, well , it was probably scary, no, or well, yes, the style of self-preservation, of course, no one i didn’t turn it off, everything explodes everywhere, bullets and shells fly by, birds are thrown off, and kamikazes, well, the most important thing there

is to survive, somehow disguise yourself, find some correct position, during the battles for novomikhailovka, soldiers found an icon of st. nicholas the wonderworker, which somehow incredibly survived. the icon was littered, but was not damaged, we decided to pull it out, that is, to save it, it is unknown what would have happened to it, they also gave us many icons from some churches, temples, where we visited during this time, during our vacation all kinds, that is, we are collecting, well, we are going to organize a camp, camp temple. konstantinovka is a strategically important settlement; its capture will cut off the supply of the enemy’s powerful ugledar group. and will also open the way for further advances into the depths of the defense enemy. eduard ponegov, alexander botkin, lead the south donetsk direction. the pace of mobilization in ukraine has quadrupled, the verkhovna rada reported that in the last month alone, the ssu has recruited as many recruits as before since the beginning of the year. at the same time,

parliament criticizes the very process of replenishing military units. the fact is that military commissars take away everyone indiscriminately, including employees of defense enterprises. this threatens those who are released. usa. the results of the elections to the european parliament were especially painful for kiev, in germany and france. the british newspaper guardian writes about this. president macron had to disband. over the country's meetings.

victoria koroleva will tell you what else the change of mood in the national governments of the eu threatens. while ordinary europeans are letting off steam at the elections, politicians are concerned about upcoming difficulties with energy supplies; some states still receive russian gas through ukraine, but by the end of the year the transit agreement will expire. according to bloomberg, european companies are going to buy gas from azerbaijan pump it into russian pipelines that go to europe through... ukrainian territory, and they are going to do this without the consent of moscow. so the european union wants to gain independence from russia and at the same time help kiev with potential transit revenues. as politics magazine notes, the attitude towards russia has become one of the most significant reasons for the split between parties in the european union, and this in turn could result in a reduction in financial assistance for ukraine. thus, following the results of the elections to the european parliament, prime minister of hungary viktor orban expressed hope that pro-peace candidates.

we managed to slow down this train, but it can also be stopped, for example, in france there was a political earthquake, the peace parties won in such large numbers. orban called the victory of donald trump in the american elections another condition for establishing peace. meanwhile, the administration of the current president apparently has completely different plans. the us authorities have lifted the ban on the supply of weapons to the azov battalion banned in russia, the washington post writes about this, citing to the state debt, and some american senators again started talking about confiscation of russian assets. there are $300 billion worth of assets in europe that we should confiscate and transfer to ukraine. there is russian money in america that we must confiscate. we should recognize russia as a sponsor of terrorism, this would be a big blow for moscow. when i told zelensky about this. he lit up like a christmas tree. kiev can only feed on such statements. in reality

, americans are busy with the election race, in anti-ukrainian sentiments are increasingly common in europe. there is also no hope for the swiss summit. several countries refused to participate in it. zelensky is disappointed, there will be no china, no saudi arabia, no major latin american states. beijing explained its decision by saying that russia was not invited to the summit. however, moscow is already. called the upcoming event a waste of time. victoria koroleva, lead. even before the start of the summit in switzerland, the contents of its final statement became known. the draft document is translated into japanese nhk tv channel. the statement, contrary to the wishes of kiev, will not contain demands on russia to withdraw troops. in general, it reflects only three points out of ten provisions of zelensky’s plan. as expected in the document, only the issues of release of prisoners and protection will be touched upon. food security power plants. the draft statement also states:

russia's participation is necessary to achieve peace. and now some footage from france. large-scale rallies against far-right politicians took place in several cities at once. in the city of nands, demonstrators erected barricades, stretched banners, and one of the protesters even tore the french flag from one publication. let me remind you that the rallies are taking place against the backdrop of the defeat of macron’s party in the elections to the european parliament, as a result of which he announced the dissolution of the national assembly. now let's move on to advertising, then we will continue to talk about the main topics of this tuesday. i am something good, better, and i am useful, oh yes, and you control me. and i have a new vtb loyalty program, you choose the categories you need

the presidential fund for cultural initiatives summed up the results of the large-scale work of experts on grant applications. for the first time in the history of the competition appeals came from creative groups from all over the country, including new regions. in total there are more than 10,000 projects. sofya sergeeva will tell you which areas have become the most popular for the participants and what the total amount they are applying for is. the most striking campaign of the presidential fund for cultural initiatives has come to an end. over the course of 40 days , 400 independent experts reviewed more than 10,000 applications from creative teams. for the first time in the history of the foundation and... all 89 regions of the country. creative industries projects in the region literature, immersive performance, classical music and folk crafts. choosing from the best was not an easy task, because each team has its own unique experience. all of russia fought for the cultural grant. the largest number of applications came from moscow, belgorod region, st. petersburg and the republic of tatarstan and bashkartastan.

not only large cities, but also new regions participated. among the applications, creative statements in songs and according to the organizers, despite the difficult

geopolitical situation, every year more and more countries want to expand cultural interaction with russia, direct evidence of this is the geography of participants, which is expanding every year. we expect that our festival will have its own art, its own national culture. will represent representatives of 50 national cultures from thirty countries and twenty regions of russia, we are also holding a competition for young performers of turkish and eastern peoples in order to search for, support talented youth, and present their creative potential at the international level. all applications from participants were distributed according to thematic areas. according to the results of the competition, the most popular of them was the cultural one. a code emphasizing the unique russian identity, among the types of projects - education, mentoring in a variety of fields. the military correspondent school from the tomsk region, for example, offers training in front-line

territories, providing complete immersion in the profession. our main target audience is regional journalists, students, those who want to gain more insight into the very essence of the profession, those who want to understand how... work in front-line territories, how to write, what to write about, go to our new regions, communicate with colleagues who work there, exchange experiences. the state family will host the tenderness festival for the third time at venues in st. petersburg, moscow and pskov, as if in counterbalance to the fashionable western ideology of dozens of genders that threaten the institution of the family. many thanks to the presidential cultural fund. initiatives, for the fact that it supports such projects, and we have the opportunity to constantly develop this platform, now we have more than eighteen events, every year,

musicians have the opportunity to perform with children, with family numbers, these are various family duets, ensembles, that is, this is a platform where all families can come to feel at home. this year, the financial request for state support for creative teams exceeded 39 billion rubles. most of the applications "over the 3 years of its existence, as a result of twelve grant competitions, the presidential fund financed more than 7.0 cultural initiatives, socially oriented, socially significant and simply interesting promising projects in all areas of culture and art. russian railways are today opening additional tracks on two existing sections of bam. this is part of a big effort to increase carrying capacity in... the eastern direction. my colleague konstantin churikov will talk about the significance of these objects and further plans for the development of the eastern training ground. he joins me. kostya. good morning. tell us

more about your plans for the coming years. good. sasha, the potential of the komsomolsk site on amuvanina is going to be more than doubled. there are other tasks as well. i'll tell you now. russian railways are opening additional tracks on the baikal-amur mainline today. we are talking about two areas. the opening coincides with the celebration of bam's fiftieth anniversary. the decree on the celebrations was signed by vladimir putin a year ago. new areas, here they are. departure 323 km people and puricans murtykit. the builders had a hard time on both stages. at the first stage, work was complicated by the terrain and unstable soils. the road goes around the foot of the mountain range and runs along the river bank. to ensure traffic safety, almost 5 km of snow-retaining fencing was installed and catching stones were built. walls of the site, but the construction of these second tracks, the comprehensive development of the komsomolsko-on-amur vanina line will make it possible to more than double the carrying capacity of the section from 40 to 82 million

tons by the end of this year. on the second stretch of the purikan murtygit, the builders also had a difficult task due to the increased water content of the sections, rivers flow within the boundaries of the tracks, they had to build six bridges and reconstruct two culverts. the construction of bridges was carried out using technologies for areas with high seismicity. modernization of this and ten more stages between tynda and bamovskaya station will increase the carrying capacity to almost 55 million tons per year. all this is part of a large-scale effort to increase freight traffic in the eastern direction. today this is a strategically important export route for the country. and as economists say, here we are limited only by our transport capabilities. lamurskaya highway as a whole with the trans-siberian railway running parallel to it forms one large export corridor to the far east, an eastern testing ground, in fact this remains now the only direction

where... we have minimized any external restrictions on international trade, where we are essentially now limited only to the development of our own infrastructure, and right now all this limitation rests on the railway. as experts explain, the baam was not originally designed for such a significant cargo flow, but one must understand that despite the difficult conditions they began to build 50 years ago, today they are modernizing this road. was originally built as a kind of backup for the trans-siberian railway, but with an eye on mineral resources in the depths of the country, and initially its capacities, in general, were not designed for the increase in traffic volume that we have today, while each highway has its own bottlenecks , which slow down the movement. bam is one of the largest

iron. roads in the world, its length from taishet to the soviet harbor is 4,287 km, if counting together with branches and connecting lines, you get generally more than 5,500. the highway passes through three time zones and six regions of the country - these are the irkutsk, amur regions, buryatia, yakutia, khabarovsk and trans-baikal territories. as the president has repeatedly said, including a few days ago at the st. petersburg economic forum, the development of new markets requires strengthening transport links. oriental. direction is china and the countries of the asia-pacific region, and the main project for russia here is the development eastern railway range. in april , the parameters of the third stage of its modernization were approved. by the thirtieth year, the carrying capacity should increase to 210 million tons, by the thirty-second year to 270. the expansion of the eastern testing site is important for the regions of the far east. this includes infrastructure development and

jobs. there are now about 30 thousand specialists working on bama, so to speak, well , i will say that each large tunnel means about a thousand jobs, and mostly young people work, this is extremely important, if only in order to keep, so to speak, young people from migrating to the european part, something that is now extremely important for... the development of the far east. the history of bama began in seventy years, when it was declared an all-union shock komsomol construction site. and on july 8 of the same year , a resolution of the cpsu central committee and the ussr council of ministers on the construction of the baikal-amur mainline was published. in the year of the fiftieth anniversary of the bama, russian railway workers have something to congratulate. experts say a lot of work has been done to modernize the road.

without bama, our country would not now have such opportunities for trade with asian countries, and business would not be able to earn money and provide a significant amount of tax payments. it seems that, just like 50 years ago, the agenda today is a new construction project of the century, the creation of a fully functioning eastern training ground for an even greater turn of the economy towards asia, for the development of its own territories of creation.

new development centers of our huge country, well, it’s worth adding that bam is also our song heritage and an invaluable contribution to the demography of the country, so let’s build bam, i’ve already built it, thank you very much, it was konstantin churikov with a story about the opening of new facilities for the fiftieth anniversary of bam. radi khabirov submitted documents to the central election commission as a candidate to participate in the elections of the head of the republic of bashkatastan. he has been heading the region since he was eighteen. the deadline is running out this year, vladimir putin met with him in april, the president supported khabirov’s desire to run for second term. let me remind you that the elections for the head of bashkiria will be held on september 8 on a single voting day. it is important for me to understand whether people will support me, because after all, we have been working for 5 years precisely for this purpose.
