we are in the north, the usa is in the south, the border is at the thirty- eighth parallel, something like the model of eastern-western germany. the north was commanded by the grandfather of the current chairman, kimchan, kim il sung. he kept asking stalin for support in his push to the south for the sake of uniting nations. stalin dissuaded him, believing that there were not enough villages yet, and he did not want to spoil relations with the allies. with all proletarian categoricalness. in the first 2 months of fighting, july august 1950, they managed to occupy almost 95% of the territory of south korea. of course, the americans took this as treachery and impudence. they assembled a coalition under the un flag. they sent powerful

artillery and aviation to the front, in about the same 2 months they won everything back, and even crossed the thirty-eighth parallel, moving north. the korean brothers were on the ropes. with the approval of the kremlin, china sent an army to the korean front under the guise of volunteers. the ussr was responsible for the sky. in total, 70,000 soviet air force personnel participated in... the best ace of the allies in world war ii, three times hero of the soviet union, ivan kozhidub, commanded. americans relied on carpet bombing, dropping a thousand times more bombs on north korea than on the entire pacific front of world war ii. there are 30 thousand tons of napal bombs alone,

so our task was to destroy these bombers in the sky with their fighter escort, we did it famously, especially since the americans still flew on piston engines, and we already had a mik-15 jet, and it was better than its american classmates f-80, faster with a smaller turning radius and more armed, shot down then in batches... amikan strategic bombers, those that destroyed kheroshima and nagasaki, b-29s, and then the b-52 flying fortresses. the war was so fierce and difficult for the us-led coalition that at the end of 1950, the american commander, army general, douglas macarthur requested 34 atomic bombs from the us president and mapped their target.

president harry truman wavered this time and refused, because by that time the ussr already had its own bomb. by the spring of 1951 truman simply fired general macarthur. the bloody war eventually ended in a draw in 1953. soviet combat aviation played a decisive role in allowing the complete liberation of north korea.

if it were not for the ussr, then such a country as the dprk would not exist now. our help was decisive then, and the memory of it became part of the north korean genotype. hence the speed of convergence now, there is nothing to be surprised about, there are no secrets. and it is clear that pyongyang is sensitive to security issues and has an unyielding desire to possess nuclear weapons in addition to its missile arsenal. as for vietnam, here, too, the genetics of folk memory are in our favor: northern pro-soviet vietnam was attacked in the united states in 1964. first, artillery shelling from ships, then in 1965 carpet bombing from the air, and then a ground operation. the united states fought ingloriously for more than 10 years until the defeat of the flight in... for america, a shameful page

in history: under 60 thousand americans died, more than 3000 were wounded, it did not help. on march 16, 68, at 5:30 a.m., soldiers of charlie company one of the twentieth infantry regiment of the us army, landing on the outskirts of the village of my lai, they immediately opened fire on the peasants who were working in the rice fields. they

drove six of us into the house and threw a hand grenade, and then started shooting from machine guns. my whole family was blown to pieces, only i was left. the corpses were thrown into wells, even small children were not spared. the sungmi massacre killed 504 civilians, including 173 children and 17 pregnant women. the lieutenant said: “go kill everyone, if i don’t see that you have killed everyone who can shoot, shoot yourself.” i went, he was always next to me, and i think i killed about 18-20 people.

don’t be mistaken, i don’t need people here who, when returning home, would think differently, we will win. the price of such a victory is genocide of an entire people, carpet bombing. during the years of the vietnam war, the united states will be reset. 7.5 million bombs, twice as many as during world war ii. palm trees are poured on the heads of the vietnamese, and a wave of fire instantly devours entire villages and cities, like changbang, where ten-year-old kim phuc took refuge with her family from the raid.

americans are flooding the jungle with a hellish mixture of herbicides and defoliants. the name evokes nightmares. by the seventies, agent orange in vietnam covered half of the acreage of forest land. the united states sprayed 77 million liters of deadly poison over the country, turning 3 million vietnamese descendants who suffer from congenital mutations into disabilities. in total , the number of war victims exceeds 4 million people. the absolute majority are peaceful. vietnam fought back. with all our might, even the term “bamboo diplomacy” appeared, because bamboo bends but does not break. of course, the ussr then came to the aid of vietnam. we delivered there s-75-dvina anti-aircraft missile systems and prepared the vietnamese to control them.

in fact, we built vietnam a powerful air defense system, a total of 95 air defense systems, plus 500 anti-aircraft guns. counting 120 helicopters and 2000 tanks. already in the first year of the war, 36 mig-17 fighters arrived in vietnam. the pilots were trained in advance. then vietnam began to receive supersonic mig-21s. unlike the korean war, in vietnam our pilots did not take part in air battles, but were instructors. as a result, the united states lost up to 2,000 aircraft there. superiority. in the air vietnam has been around since 1967. that year , the vietnamese shot down twice as many american planes as they lost themselves. i was a teenager then and i remember very well how in the second half of the sixties and early seventies,

everyone was counting downed american planes. here are 1318, here are 1657. our aviation and air defense system did not allow the united states to commit their dirty deed. vietnam will always be grateful to the west for this. they are still wondering why we have such a speed of approach, don’t be surprised, remember your crimes, what you need for travel, road, to where there are no roads, loved ones to go further, calculation to... improvise, time to forget about it,

the church of the intercession in derbent for almost half a century. the rector - father nikolai, nikolai kotelnikov, was killed by terrorists on the feast of the holy trinity. he was 66 years old. father nikolai was known and loved in dagestan. journalist of the spas tv channel, alexander egortsev, visited the priest many times, and cannot talk about him in the past tense. he is called the oldest priest of dagestan. his. are very loved and respected not only by the orthodox, but also muslims are jews, i say this with full responsibility. once, i remember, we went to visit father nikolai in derbent, and he took us. on an excursion to the jewish derben synagogue, there he was met by jews, rabbis, hugged him, said: “balchika, it’s good that you came to us,” and then father nikolai took us to the oldest juma mosque in dagestan and in russia in general in derbent , and the same picture, he was a very bright man, parishioners say,

those who knew father nicholas personally call his death a martyr’s sacrifice, it is clear that this... church in derbent, but also taught at a local sunday school, orthodoxy lessons, the law of god, lately, parishioners recall, it was difficult for him not only to walk, but also to stand, the priest was ill, but when he came to church, it was always clear how they love him here, the abbot has a wife, three daughters and six grandchildren, i remember, of course, our last meeting, it was several years ago, he and

his wife called us into his room, began to treat us to tea, sweets, and talked about families , about children, this is such a priest, i i remember his words, which he once told me back in 2010, that we have nothing to share with muslims, we live side by side, on the same street, we go to visit them on holidays, they come to guests to us, these are the sincere words of a priest who... spent his whole life in dagestan, not without reason for the monument to the brotherhood of three religions on the pedestrian street of derbent, and this monument consists of three figures, ravin, priest and mules, so the orthodox priest fought with nikolai kotelnikov, now this monument has become even more symbolic because faith is stronger than terrorism. anton potkovenko, olga alvukhina, news!

the capital of vietnam in russian flags , vladimir putin was welcomed here as a friend and ally, in hanoi there is real tropical heat, but the vietnamese komsomol members don’t mind it, hello, on the streets of hanoi there is forty-degree heat and almost one hundred percent humidity, but despite... the aurus with the presidential standard, a military band also prepared for the state visit of the russian leader. and now

vladimir putin’s motorcade rides along the lined pioneers, the president of russia is met by the president of vietnam, tolam, he has been in this position for a little less than a month and for him this is the first foreign guest, for vladimir putin , this visit to vietnam is already the fifth , the russian anthem is played and 21 fireworks are fired. vietnamese honor guard companies are like a kremlin regiment. armed with soviet simonov carbines, another reminder of the long-standing military partnership of the two peoples, the soldiers of the vietnamese people's army demonstrate their bearing by the president. the protocol ceremony takes place in the courtyard of the presidential palace, where toolam invites vladimir putin to the saving coolness of air conditioners. the entire

history of vietnam seemed to be embodied in this castle; to build it, the french colonialists demolished a very ancient pagoda and erected it here. the castle here was the residence of the governor general of french indochina, and finally, now here is the office, workplace of the president of the socialist republic of vietnam. the president's active communication begins immediately after the photographing ceremony. russia and vietnam have a rich joint history. in the next this year, the countries will celebrate the seventy-fifth anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations, and vladimir putin invited his colleague to the next victory parade in moscow. the presidents make a statement to the media following the negotiations. a huge bust of ho chi minh city, the man under whose leadership the french colonialists were first expelled and then the american army was repulsed. now the political situation in the region is again turbulent, and its president.

we will not enter into alliances with third countries so as not to harm each other's independence and sovereignty, and we will contribute to peaceful cooperation in the region. the full name of this state is the socialist republic of vietnam and here they remained faithful to the covenant of ho chi minh city. in the fourth article of the constitution. the communist party is described as the vanguard of the working class, the leading force of the state and society, and there is a monument on lenin square. parliament, almost all the seats, are occupied by communists, which means a meeting with the general

secretary of the communist party of vietnam is the most important part of the state visit. the most authoritative the country's politician, with him vladimir putin talks about strengthening the strategic partnership between the two countries. russia and vietnam have similar positions on many pressing international issues, and we share them. the idea of ​​building a fair, democratic, multipolar world order, based on international law, the principles of sovereignty and equality of the state. comrade putin has always provided special support to the vietnamese people, our bilateral relations, our party, the state people are always grateful and grateful to the russian people for the selfless assistance and support provided to vietnam in our struggle for our independence and defense of our homeland. we are, of course, talking about the vietnam war, in which the northerners were helped by thousands of soviet military advisers with weapons supplied by moscow. a monument to the fallen heroes is dedicated to the victims of the fight against the colonialists;

vladimir putin laid a wreath at the monument, this is a mandatory protocol part of the state visit. and another ceremony at the ho chi minh city mausaleum. this building was erected by the soviet architect harald isakovich, for which he received the title of hero of labor. vladimir putin paid tribute to the memory of the founder of modern vietnamese statehood and went inside to where the embalmed body of the communist rests. in one day, the russian president managed to communicate with all the key figures in vietnam. in addition to the president and the secretary general of the party , negotiations also took place with the prime minister and the speaker of parliament. and by evening, vladimir putin was already expected at the hanoi opera. all these people are graduates of soviet and russian universities.

symbol of strength, i wish you good luck and come back to vietnam again, i celebrate your russian language, you speak practically without an accent, well , almost anything without an accent, and this is great, in just decades , 75,000 vietnamese have graduated from our country, 3.00 are receiving education right now, but i’ll ask a question now, i haven’t studied that yet. “hello, our president, vladimir vladimirovich, my name is an, i graduated from the master’s program at

st. petersburg state university, we are classmates, i’m very happy for that, i’m very glad, when you studied in st. petersburg, your name was probably anya there, yes, yes, anechka, and of course, to everyone friends of russia are interested." indeed, russian classics too, but i would n’t even divide them according to nationality, according to some kind of state principle, this musical art, i think that... and divide it according to nationality, limit it according to nationality , which means banning something on a national or state basis is complete

nonsense, you just need to enjoy art and give people the opportunity to do the same, which is why tchaikovsky, and mozart, and schubert, and liszt, and borodin, musorsky, and so on. glinka, this is this all people who have made a tremendous contribution to the development of world art. here at the opera there is a gala concert in honor of the russian president, in the dark there is an illuminated installation, the shadows of which are formed by a portrait of vladimir putin. on stage, vietnamese artists showed the beauty of their music.

other western countries, then yes, it has an effect on some, on others not so much, but in any case. as for the pressure from washington and the rudeness with which the american authorities do this, they do not always comply to their benefit, in strategic terms only to their detriment, because no one likes this snabism, and no one ever does. even in the medium-term historical perspective will not forgive. the conversation with journalists almost immediately goes beyond the scope of state visits. there are questions about putin's proposed positions on negotiations with ukraine, which were received coolly in the west. i was expecting exactly this kind of reaction. at the first stage, but what will happen later, only time will tell. depending, everything will depend on how the situation on earth changes. i'm not sure what

what is this attitude?

there is practically no chance of turning the situation around, it was not we who refused negotiations, the ukrainian side forbade itself to negotiate, not us, we are for it and have never refused this, but not on the basis of some ephemeral formulas, on the basis of those agreements which were reached during difficult negotiations, one and a half months of negotiations almost in istanbul and minsk, on this basis we are ready to continue our dialogue with the ukrainian side, and where will they take place? it doesn't matter whether in minsk, istanbul or switzerland. these proposals are on our side of the table. please, it is no longer up to us when all the subjects interested in these negotiations will take what is on their table and start these negotiations, even tomorrow. refusing negotiations, kiev declares that it is preparing for another counter-offensive. the whole world saw how the last attempt ended. the russian

army is ready to repel the new one.
