twice-serving iraqi marine and global security specialist paul willan salutes biden as he exits the plane. the american media call him a simple businessman, detained by mistake. in russia, willan was convicted of espionage as a career intelligence officer. i am a british, irish american citizen, when we... flew over england and ireland, i looked down and realized that i was returning home, if there were rewards for a failed mission, it would be later, but for now joe biden is presenting willan, taken from his lapel pin with an american flag, during these rituals they almost forgot about who in the united states is called one of the main figures in this deal, wall street journal reporter evan gershkovich. also sentenced for espionage against russia to 16 years of maximum security, gershkovich, as... another us citizen,

alsou kurmashova, a journalist from the recognized undesirable organization radio liberty, was sentenced to 6 and a half years for distributing fake news from the russian army, all three are american part of the deal for which biden had to put pressure on allies. i asked them to do what... do. slovenia joining the latter would be contrary to their immediate interests. germany had a very difficult time this minute. i'll tell you what. the chancellor was great. biden convinced german chancellor scholz several times to fulfill moscow’s conditions and return vadim krasikov, sentenced to life imprisonment, to russia, as the american press reports. kamal and harris had not previously advertised their participation in the negotiations, but now they are including it in the official legend of the historical deal. how assures. it was haris who, at the munich

security conference in february of this year, played almost the main role in berlin’s agreement to hand over krasikovo to russia. harris, who was in germany for a conference meeting privately with the german chancellor, pressured scholz to facilitate krasikov's release. after she completed her scheduled meeting with scholz, she asked all employees to leave the room for what u.s. officials could do. then they call it bilateral meetings in a narrow format, on which has only one assistant to the vice president and chancellor left. in a personal conversation , haris emphasized that krasikov's release would be crucial to concluding a deal. the fact that biden conducted negotiations on including the dultsev family, sitting in a slovenian prison, on the exchange list, already knowing that he himself was not going to the elections, speaks about how in a hurry the biden administration was in a hurry to conclude this deal. just an hour before

biden announced he would not seek re-election, while he was recovering his beach house in delaware, he called the prime minister of slovenia to say: "give us the last piece of the puzzle so we can move on." previously, secret negotiations between moscow and washington on the exchange of prisoners, which had been stalled for several years, intensified as the elections in the united states approached. the wall street journal, whose employee... evan gershkovich was one of the key figures in this scheme, assures that the final details of the exchange were agreed upon in early summer, during personal meetings between employees of the russian and us intelligence services. in june and in july, us intelligence officials met with their russian counterparts in middle eastern capitals, while german negotiators held their own meetings. in washington, salevan scrambled to negotiate a deal just as ...

european allies, who were asked by the us to release russian spies. according to the american press, the expanded list of prisoners in russia who are of interest to the west was personally compiled by the presidential national security advisor.

germany, poland, slovenia, norway and turkey. they all showed activity and were with us. and they made bold decisions, releasing prisoners held legally in their countries and providing logistical support to bring americans home. next to biden are relatives of the rescued americans.

made it clear that the reason russia wanted to do this deal now is because they believe president trump will win and they don't want to deal with him. i talked about the same thing on the day of the exchange his vice presidential candidate, j.d. vance. trump himself first launched into an angry attack

against the democrats for cheapening the invasion with moscow, but a day later he lowered the degree of criticism, although he admitted that russia was the winner. i would like to congratulate vladimir putin for striking another great deal. did you see the deal they made? look, we wanted people back, we have 59 hostages, and i never paid for anything. they produced some of the best killers in the world. they got some of the meanest killers, and we got our people back. but we just made a terrible, terrible deal. it's good to say we got people back, but it sets a bad precedent. it did not work out to make kamla haris the main dove of peace in this complex exchange operation. on the tarmac at andrews air force base after a meeting of three compatriots, she tried to give a coherent speech, but without a cheat sheet it turned out poorly. this is a tremendous

testament to the importance of having a president who understands the power of diplomacy, who understands the power that comes from understanding. the importance of diplomacy and strengthening alliances. this is incredible. just after this joint speech, joe biden turns around on autopilot and heads towards the plane, which the arriving passengers have long since abandoned. stumbling slightly, he climbs the ladder. is anybody home? - biden asks, entering the salon. where he was going to fly, everyone wondered, from journalists to kamela haris, hoping that he would be exchanged to russia, social media users speculated. kharis exchanges glances with the personal photographer, both do not understand. what happens, later the white house press service will explain that biden simply came to thank the crew of the plane. the campaign theater of the historic exchange clearly did not go according to plan, and those returning from russia, gershkovich, whelan and kurmasheva, were sent for medical examination to

brooke army medical center in texas, which is used by the us government to recover military secret agents after returning from missions. they pose in front of the lenses with a flag with a call on it. release all american prisoners in the world, while according to official data, the united states itself currently has about 42 thousand foreigners in prisons, including several dozen russians. this unique exchange operation between russia and the west showed that despite all the uncompromising rhetoric, the united states is ready to do a lot for the sake of urgent election needs, and between the russian and american capitals there are communication channels that make it possible to resolve such delicate... issues after the current deal the white house said it was ready to continue the dialogue with moscow about the exchange of prisoners. dmitry melnikov and pavel kostrikov, news from washington. in germany, everything is complicated, the traffic light coalition is mourning an outwardly political

failure. the terms of the exchange eloquently illustrated who really controls the european locomotive. details from the head of our bureau in berlin, mikhail antonov. a historical moment, the largest exchange of prisoners since the cold war, special flights from ankara, the german press met with sensational headlines, many about the triumph of putin, because he returns to russia... august of the nineteenth year, he was walking along the alley, when a cyclist approached him from behind, fired three shots, one bullet hit the shoulder, two in the head, instant death, from the murder weapon and the bicycle, the shooter quickly got rid of it, threw it into the river, in a spray, but there were witnesses, this allowed the police were hot on the trail of vadim krasikov, who initially appeared in

the case under the name sokolov, indicated in the false passport. at the time of his arrest later during the investigation and trial, krasikov behaved calmly. five policemen with machine guns forced him to lie down on the ground to surrender, but only after he had assessed the situation with an icy, calculating gaze, the still-impressed policeman told the court. he always kept himself under control. he left the conversations to his lawyer.

which putin sends with this exchange to all russians who continue to secretly work for him abroad, if they are caught, they just need to hang on like krasikov, wait and watch, don’t say anything, and the kremlin will take care of them. negotiations on the exchange of krasikov for one of the western citizens convicted in russia began 2 years ago. usa at first they tried to bargain for britney greiner, an american basketball player who received a sentence for drug smuggling, but the matter did not move forward precisely because of the position of germany. everyone in berlin was against it, especially foreign minister berbuk, who feared that krasikov’s release would jeopardize

the peaceful existence of other fighters for the freedom of ichkeria, who settled in europe with blood on their hands. greiner was eventually exchanged for viktor bout, but new candidates for exchange arose, the us presidential election loomed on the horizon, and as it turned out, there was nowhere to go. what it's like to see on tv russian president vladimir putin hugging murderers and spies at the airport. these are things that are very, very, very, very difficult and that no one can make easier. to facilitate, no, to justify, yes. the german media emphasize the humanistic nature of the action, how good we are, exchanging spy killers for innocent people. we literally save lives. this is what inspired chancellor scholz, who interrupted his vacation to meet the exchanged at cologne airport. i'm sure this is the right decision and if you had any.

yashin is the only one who clearly outlined his desire to return to prison, the only thing that keeps him from crossing the russian border in the opposite direction is the fear that the process of exchanging prisoners after such a demarche will be complete. stopped, why it is unclear, most of all i now want to return home, yashin is more outraged than the rest of the pardon procedures that preceded his release... the usa and germany, they also had an interest in the exchange. it is noteworthy that vadim krasikov did not write requests for pardon addressed to federal president steinmeier, and moreover,

german laws prohibit the release from life of those who have not served 15 years, which is simple. thank you, mr. lukashenko, thank you for forgiving me. while on death row, krieger gave an interview to belarusian television. every day i feel completely abandoned and that i have been fooled. the government should fight for me, but only my family does. they

are trying to persuade the german government take at least some steps. germany does not want to make any contact with belarus.

conditionally strengthened the friendship between the united states and germany. in order to force the german chancellor to agree to the exchange of a key figure, the us presidential administration put pressure on him for a very long time from different sides. biden, as the new york times writes, personally called european leaders, asking and demanding to press scholz. so the americans forced the chancellor to be friends after twisting his arms to the limit. 52% of germans approve of the exchange, 20 do not approve and 28 have mixed feelings about this. feeling, that is, sociology seems to be saying that berlin’s next bending towards washington with the germans themselves is counted more as a plus than a minus. however, this story in germany, unlike russia and the usa, is unlikely to have a long life in the information space; certainly no one will call what happened a triumph for chancellor scholz. mikhail antonov, anastasia barkovskaya,

big sunday news is live and we continue: in the zone of a special military operation, another

settlement was liberated today: novoselovka the first. previously lazovatskaya, progress, evgenovskaya in volchie and leninskaya in the donetsk people's republic came under control. all these villages, the battles for which took a long time, open the way to toretsk. this is a large logistics hub through which supplies are supplied. the mig-29 fighter, the su-25 attack aircraft, and today also the su-27 heavy fighter, from

the front line, in the kharkov direction. along the road there are nets on poles so that enemy drone pilots cannot maneuver, there is an electronic warfare station on each car, along the side of the road there are burnt out cars, like a reminder that both rap and networking are not always effective. this is what it looks like now.

and buckets at the front edge, and we have a reb working now, yes, yes, they are already turned on, the closer the front edge, the faster you have to go through sections of the road, at the front the main factor of losses is still fpv enemy drones, and competitions for who has fpv calculations drones work more efficiently, those whose rep systems are more adapted... to current

conditions, it continues, here we are flying in solidarity, the crew of kamikaze drones is now supporting the attack aircraft with fire, the initiative is on all key areas of the northern military district zone are in the hands of the russian army, our units are advancing here, in the solidaro-artyomovsky sector. evgeny sturmovik, with serious experience, and the north military district is not his first war, was awarded three orders of courage. technology, of course, war is completely different, let’s take it. since the great patriotic war, accordingly, technically it is completely different in comparison with anything; it can no longer be compared with another war, but drone war, high-tech war, our fpv calculation finds a convenient point for take-off, from here the enemy is now about 2 km away, but in general this is in the direction of slavyansk and kramatorsk, just south of chasovyar and konstantinovka, all of these are large logistics centers of the formation.

slow down the advance of our troops and are doing everything possible to support the infantry units of the kiev regime in defense, to help maintain their combat stability, despite serious opposition, our units are slowly moving forward, the task is to destroy a disguised stronghold of the militants of the kiev regime in the forest belt, for this drone, engineers are attaching incendiary ammunition, hitting thick treetops with other types of projectiles is now ineffective, listen, how many kilometers can you fly? with an air repeater you can fly up to 20 km, this is just a panacea for many problems, so i went, come on, in a matter of

minutes the stronghold of the formation of the kiev... on our side and effective, when you really want to be somehow, well, look at the footage from the same belgorod, something like this. non-selective strikes by militants the kiev regime against civilians, many who are now here were encouraged to take up arms. we stop by the terik reconnaissance brigade, it is staffed by volunteers. combrik.
