i myself remember sitting at the 112 site of the gas station, sitting talking, watching the man from the roof is cold and soft-boiled, as they say, one of the most dangerous industries is the oxygen plant, the soldiers who worked here were given special boots without metal studs. they feared that because of an accidental spark, everything would fly into the air. oxygen perfectly supports combustion, and here there are tens of tons of it. the temperature at the moment on the metal hose is minus 183°, this is the boiling point of liquid oxygen. this is how the entire oxygen plant baikonur looks like near-earth orbit cosmonaut oleg artemyev took hundreds of such pictures from the iss. artemyev went from baikonur into space

twice, which is more than the launch pad for him. there grew up or me still. especially i still, when i fly there, it’s like nostalgia there, i kind of roll over and remember a lot of things, which is connected with my city, the strongest impressions of his childhood are artemyev’s rockets , like many children would save money secretly from adults going to the roof local school. something older than you stopped, especially since you knew exactly when this start would be, you could look there or with your friends who worked for dad. there you could find out when it all happened. at the school where artemiev studied today they arranged a space museum? and this is the class in which we studied ilmira, kushenova

's classmate. artemiev, they are now communicating, though less often than we would like. we met again here at the spaceport. well, oleg has already arrived here. as an astronaut we met, talked , remembered childhood school years. they gave him this mood, because we understood that it was a very difficult step to fly into space for the first time. elmira's father once worked at baikonur, took the rocket to the launch pad. and now one of her sons is working there, checking the equipment before the start. the rocket is in the carriages, we examine

the integrity of all equipment. these are the devices that serve to ensure the launch of the rocket for the work itself, to correct the work for the launch of satellites, the same navigation systems. their large family often gathers together the whole dynasty at one table is not enough here. only of one person, the middle son or the world, he is now at the vostochny cosmodrome to parents, well, when 3-4 months is still video communication, this video communication is next to this, especially since the little daughter is growing up, probably already missed the first steps

, being here on business trips and his brother assembles and tests spacecraft. here, work is being done to unload the product. soyuz three blocks block of the second stage block of the third stage today we are unloading the vostochny first civil cosmodrome built by the ussr future our astronautics. today baikonur is the first cosmodrome of the planet located on the territory of another state. russia only rents it, but

work is still in full swing in the workshops. this is the room where the transport manned cargo ships are undergoing finishing training. uh, before starting. this is the so-called technical complex, the final preparation will take place at the launch complex. and here is the technical preparation. on october 5, 2021, baikonur again took the lead in the space race and again attracted the attention of the entire planet. here with this launch sites number 31 for the first time in the world went to orbit to shoot a movie and opened a new page in the history of the first spaceport on earth.

life is different

hello program time will tell, we continue the work of the information channel. i am artem shein , we are working live today, april 12, cosmonautics day. congratulations to all a-a involved in this industry, and the most important for our country, glorious for our country, associated with many breakthroughs, uh, that our country made with you, the heirs, which we are, of course, today. ah, the celebration of this holiday takes place against the backdrop of a special military operation and much of what was said in the framework. here are the activities associated with this holiday. for example, here, and the president, together with the president of belarus alexander lukashenko, visited, uh, the vostochnaya cosmodrome , where vladimir putin said that the lunar program would continue, and here is much of

what is said there in connection with space history it is relevant in in the light of what you and i are thinking about, what we are talking about and we argue against the backdrop of a special military operation. uh, and in the background. the most important confrontation with the west with nato is actually the cause of which this operation is and in particular. here are some very important things. he said that it is important for us all now to understand our current situation and the prospects of this situation, that the soviet union has its own space program. developed, and in the conditions, well, in fact, sanctions as such were not announced, but in fact , in fact, it was. uh, in general, the country in many ways, relying only on itself in the case of space history, relying only on itself ; moreover, the soviet space program and the satellite and gagarin's flight are you. just imagine that it was some 15-16 years after

the bloody destructive war, in which tens of millions of people died, during which most of the country was destroyed. and this is a very important reference for us to our past, so to speak, to these space achievements, which are important today in order to remember and not forget that when our country is mobilized and focused to solve big problems. we can do a lot and in spite of what external difficulties competitors arrange for us, who, of course, do not want to. so that we can achieve these accomplishments. and, of course , an indication that this holiday is taking place against the backdrop of a special military operation and already quite obvious, in my opinion, undisguised confrontation with the west, and with nato, was the fact that at a press conference at the vostochnaya a cosmodrome after negotiations with alexander lukashenko and vladimir putin said, but to me

it seems very important words about the course, and especially this very military operation, its goals and pace of implementation, please. as for the operation itself? and i often hear questions. but is it possible, as soon as possible, it depends on the intensity of hostilities, and the intensity of hostilities. unfortunately, one way or another, it is connected with losses. our task is to achieve all the goals, minimizing these losses, and we will act rhythmically calmly according to the plan, which was originally proposed by the general states. i have already spoken about this many times. uh, there's no need for a press conference right now. all this is repeated and actions related to certain regions. ukraine were connected only with the fact that to tie up the forces. strike and destroy military infrastructure. to create conditions for more

active operations on the territory of donbass is the goal of our entire operation. i want to recall what i said in the early morning of february 24, our goal is to help people living in the donbass, which feels its inseparable connection with russia and which has been subjected to genocide for 8 years and the operation is going according to plan. the operation is going according to plan and , in fact, how it is going according to plan. there, in the donbass, many e, war correspondents are watching, one of whom is now a regular participant in our broadcasts, and the youngest rybin will now be with us on e, a direct connection. and here is vlad vlad hello. hey, how can you hear me? great, do you hear? well, look, but in fact, for the first time, we are talking like this. here in this in this your quality of presence there in

area while carrying out the operation and i think from the studio. uh, a lot of what you see one by one there on the spot from what you see and talk to people. well, you and i, so to speak, how to communicate. i know these conversations, these impressions, probably, many things are seen differently, perceived differently both from the point of view of the direct conduct of hostilities and from the point of view of the very nature of this operation, so let's talk about all this, but plumply. go. firstly, it must be said right away that the battle for mariupol is, in principle, over. here we have to make a little difference. there is the concept of the battle for mariupol, there are separate battles. the battle for mariupol is over. i spent 3 days here in this city. e was practically everywhere. e to the city. e. now there is already a mayor there. a hospital operates there, to which everything that is needed to treat the sick wounded is constantly brought there. there is an open

humanitarian corridor, not corridors, even assessments around the city. you can just see people who just go about their business, of course, very often controversial there to get water to get food, past very difficult, but the city is already living its own autonomous life. and there are, uh, two districts. they are isolated from the city, they practically cannot influence the city in any way, in addition to the small number of remaining mortars, which are calm and systematic. that's how the president said, as everyone is talking around, who is fighting here is calm fully multiplied by zero. uh, i was talking here with absolutely wonderful guys tankers from the dpr who have been fighting since the first day of this mariupol battle, which is all a tank company went through this huge hell, which, uh, started with 10 tanks, then reached two without losing a single person, and some tanks simply knocked out two or three times.

now she is back in full force and these guys. they said one interesting thing. and do you know what the meaning of what's going on here says ? i say, well, i asked, of course, what i say, because here is born, the most iron guard in general, which only exist now in the world. and we destroy what could to be with us we are alive here, and we are winning, and there are fewer of them every day and they say they will not leave here, not a single one alive we are trying to do this, as it were, the main thing is that there is generally a basic feeling here, of course, you know, here would be our uh sofas, these alarmists, uh, the general staff officers and, in general, our entire sofa military audience. at least for half a day it would be like this in the form of a throne , because the main thing is that you will meet something like that, this is the feeling that something is wrong, you understand the general one. eh, as if the general mood people is to fight penalties to drive to the end and even when you say there, guys. why do we need lvov

so you know very severe and i’ll tell you like a soldier. you know, so that later they would also get out of lvov from one of his nafig, you understand, therefore, the feeling here is very, uh, you know the right ones without any there. hooray hats. we throw everyone perfectly understand what kind of enemy they are fighting with, but nowhere is there any feeling that this enemy is the one you know, that's not something that we can't handle, with whom you can somehow negotiate. no, people are here they fight to win and win, and when mariupol finishes, this is the mariupol group, it will probably be the most combat-ready group, uh, which will act in this direction, so i’m from here, uh, what is called every day i return from mariupol, i always return to the feeling you know, i would rather charge my soul batteries than replace them. but tell me vlad and about just mariupol ending all the same conversation about mariupol and about the fact that now there are two left that do not affect anything

resistance, which systematically defend, but still, but two questions that er, i'm interested in the first. and yesterday, they wrote and talked a lot about a certain attempt. e parts of the defenders, but vushniks or the national battalion, and break out of mariupol somewhere as part of almost a battalion. what do you know about it? eh, how did it end? tell me please. well, uh pile point of view, most likely it was not a breakthrough. it was an attempt to find a corridor along which all the stats could go, because there was a breakthrough somewhere, well about two hundred no more. and the way it was organized, of course, is very vile, purely in the ukrainian nazi manner with our own symbols of the z column. they even put a hummer with a red cross in front. you know what everyone saw, that is, the calculation was classic how they took cover behind the inhabitants so that we would not shoot in the same way. these

creatures tried to escape here, but uh, the cauldron is lined up, you understand? he is carefully monitored and they are waiting for this attempt to find a corridor along which everything can then jump out. she doesn't succeeded. i think there will be more, but first of all, it means that they don't want to die, you understand? it’s them there, uh, they themselves talk on the internet about how they die here for the happiness of ukraine, you understand and what kind of heroes they are all here, but in reality these heroes are trying to dress up as civilians, hiding behind red crosses and other people’s signs. just drop it, you know? tell me please, but about, uh, here is the desire to dump and unwillingness, as you said, to die, but are attempts to pull it out continuing? uh, someone with azov steel, whom they have been trying to pull out by helicopters for a long time through some kind of negotiations, and so on? and who, apparently, also does not want to die at all, what do you have with this story of the situation,

the next more landing sites that we would not control, there is no fire, so maybe only some completely crazy pilot will try. once again, somehow break through here, the previous two attempts ended very badly. there, in my opinion, it turns out that out of six helicopters only one flew away and it is clear that you are not one of those who was needed, because the second flight ended for the wallpaper of death helicopters, but they tried to get out. ships, at least to probe the exit, as you know, there one ship tried to turn around to the ukrainian coast, but nothing came of it either. uh, turned around and forced to go back and now we understand. who is there tried what is called on this ship to leave, therefore, i think that the options to escape somewhere are becoming every day, less and less, just today i heard there or yesterday, more precisely, one of 126 was heard farewell address indigenous so you know the commander of the azov regiment, here’s one phrase you just know me, here, uh, well, to put it mildly, i’ll go out when

he says that my lads fix crying that they can’t give a child a piece of bread, you understand i would like to see at least one child in mariupol, so the creatures were given at least a piece of bread, i talked with women there who told me what they had there, and the local brewer brought it. uh, you know, such a small box with pictures, i'm with you for the children. what is snickers one snickers one day of a child’s life, and they were lying together at the exit, these skins, these wrappers passed, he said, he saw the sushnik, he said, he was not too lazy, he climbed into the basement, found these sneakers , visor, how to say for children. we said you don't need it anymore. take it dry. you know , these, i see. and from being there, uh, actually the last question, but actually the most important, being. there's your idea of ​​who we're fighting with and what we're fighting for, but somehow a new understanding has changed. yes you know here i finally realized for myself that we are not

at war with ukraine, this is an illusion. understand? we are already carrying the third world war, which is taking place on the territory of ukraine and the ukrainians. uh, this is the tool of this third world war of nato and the americans against us, you know, in general, uh, i now understand that all the current stamina is this hsu and that’s all, and that’s what they focus on, that is, it ’s connected to the huge western propaganda that we will not abandon you, we will give you weapons, we will do everything for you to win, you understand? they already may have been broken and erased a long time ago, but this is the feeling that such a huge hand is pushing them from behind. it is in them that this is still being added, therefore, it is necessary to defeat them so that, in general, there are no illusions. this is the thing i noticed, maybe i want to share it too for everyone, which, oddly enough, is all emphasis, that is, it ends within 3 minutes. after the capture, not a single prisoner who would have yelled glory to ukraine

and everything crocodile no by the way, as well as among the uh normal population. that is, suddenly all at once three and suddenly everything at once becomes absolutely objective, they begin to understand everything, that is, ukraine must be freed only this way and no way. otherwise, otherwise this infection cannot be defeated. understood. thank you. vlad ah. good luck. hello. be careful as careful as you can be careful and careful. it was young shurygin a from the area of ​​the special military operation. and in the donbass, it was not by chance that i said to him, uh, these words about accuracy and caution. all of you probably know what came under fire from the nationalists channel one correspondent irina ksenkova was wounded during shelling. because of the ags , the guys who accompanied the military actually covered her with themselves were also injured, which is normal for the question of, so to speak , the qualities of a russian soldier, but we also wish her and all of them a

recovery, and good luck to all correspondents. someone is working there. hope everything will be ok. well, now we will talk with you, just about what we started talking with vlad about that we all perfectly understand that this is resistance. me and these difficulties and, uh, this is, as it were, a viscous, uh, special military operation in which ukraine , of course, clings to e. that's for everything. what can it cling to? this is not about ukraine , as vlad shurygin rightly said. this is a much larger and more complex confrontation; in fact, it is already obvious that this is with nato from the western american-centric world. and here's where it's all going to go. yes, by military means. we are pushing here and will continue to push, but where is this whole process heading and what is it fraught with for everyone, including, by the way, for this is the most important question for the day of cosmonautics on the first machine guns metal is melting next to you

harnesses are so red-hot we are the lesnoy field , there will be no continuation of the flight. we remain a helicopter. i could lift one of the descent apparatus, a huge wet parachute is attached to it. around the taiga, i think in three months they will come for us on dogs. premiere rescue in space on first saturday it seems to everyone it’s already clear that no matter what you call it, a special military operation in ukraine, the conflict over ukraine is not about ukraine and this is all about the fact that ukraine is like the tip of a western and nato spear, and aimed at us. we are trying, so to speak , to blunt to crush and so on and so forth,

by the way. in general, practically does not hide. this is already in nato, talking about what is happening here, not as you know about some, as usual. it's like about some kind of conflict, which they seem to be watching, as it were, so to speak. here it analyzes. they talk about it almost openly, as if they were doing something. they themselves are a part of what they are or what is their business? well, listen, and the secretary general himself. and nato, and today he spoke directly about this, it seems to me quite revealingly, listen, we are entering the second stage. more complex , different in nature from the first stage, on a much wider territory, both in the east in the donbass and in the south towards crimea and mariupol , according to our estimates, we are entering the second stage of this war, which seems to be dragging on, damn it. well, look alexey alekseevich. we are entering the second stage. yes, we, we, this, in your opinion, such as

would be a figure of speech or they have already stopped even pretending that they are just watching from the sidelines. what is today? in your opinion, what is happening here for nato is when a person does something for a long time and tries to hide it, but in the end it turns out that he reveals himself with various reservations, phrases, or even directly begins to say what he is really doing. we remember very well how the nato leadership swore literally that they would not enter into conflict, that they would in no way support escalation of armed conflicts, and so on, which we see see direct support. we see directly the umbilical cord that connects the mother's body with this enfandribl ukrainian armed forces, which are fueled by armaments and finances. well, i don’t know about finan but armament, in any case, is precisely in order to continue e conflicts, so that people

die, it seems to me that this is some kind of infernal, generally nato organization that, uh, in words , distances itself from the processes, but in reality continues to make the conflict last. as long as possible, and, of course, it worries me the words of this nato doer as to what the setting is now. now it's called a master plan. it's to prolong the conflict. that's why, uh, ukrainian. hmm negotiation teams. now they are trying in every possible way to disrupt the negotiation processes, drag it out, confuse it, and so on. it seems to me that it is with this that such a special media activity is connected. e vladimir zelensky who turned from an evil clown into a bloody clown, but who is considered a hero in the west, guys, if you have such heroes to talk, we really nothing is true, and here's the question, then? uh, when you said they swore they weren't going to. so they also swore to get in there by military means not to be supported. and this is

where my question arises. and this is how you think or how we think, it was from the very beginning that there was no plan to interfere, and then something influenced the fact that they decided to get in there, deeper. no. they are just one step away from failure and now they are trying to lay straws in advance, because they are well aware if we find evidence. that they planned it led it funded it. and most importantly, they participated in this from leadership positions, then i think that they will have something to say on the sites, and i'm afraid that the tribunal, which we often say in this studio , will already be deployed in a slightly different direction. but this is the formulation of the question that they are one step away from failure. and you, as if happily agreed, and what do you see as their failure and, in fact, how what is the distance of this step, what is needed for them to take this step to pass in your opinion, if so the right of us is not that we will prove their participation, we

will prove their participation, no one will listen to us, as they never did, on all other passionary boys on all other issues. they simply won’t pay attention to it. failure is not in this right. the success of our special operations, if we achieve the goals that were set, as minister lavrov absolutely rightly said, this will be a blow to the entire western family, the whole system will guarantee what this will be measured by. hit here. here, explain this situation to me. here is this one step to failure. here is their failure, what happened that everything fell apart for them, and the next east will happen. ukraine will be liberated. after that, the kiev regime will fall down, where they have a bottom, they have a-a, it will be necessary to have serious negotiations with us, than we have, but because the system. what does it mean that regional elites are trying in ukraine in dnepropetrovsk in kharkov in all other cities

felt that the kiev regime has completely lost control over the situation and will negotiate with us directly georg when you spoke, you felt that the kiev regime had completely lost control over the situation, they would begin to negotiate, and i ask you. what are you in? you measure when they feel that he has lost control of the situation, the first big, serious, military, image success of the russian federation during this special operation. after that, it will be clear that everything will crumble, and then it will just be a snowball. this is not the first time in history that such things have had an operation in history, the regime is crumbling after a serious defeat in a military conflict. and here it is again, it will be a big problem for nato because the alliance will show that it was not able to protect the one he called his ally and moreover, listen, but he called his ally. everything is this one. and even if it turns out that there is some kind of egg, and there is some kind of needle in this egg. she 's got something on the end of that needle. this is still

not yet. roughly speaking, this is very important here, but from the point of view of nato, which called it its own , everything does not end here. here, in contrast to afghanistan, unlike iraq, unlike other peripheral conflicts. here europe is here the border of nato and once again this will be very serious , it was you who wanted to add something. i just wanted to help him george. the fact is that we are talking about a reputational failure of nato. they, uh, have laid a lot of things on this conflict and other countries, which are also children of the day. it is known whom they are now watching, how the same states of britain will behave. this is the first second to talk. we are after the completion of a special military operation we won’t be zelensky, but the guys from nato will need a scapegoat, and this goat is already on this goat zelensky excuse french, but i will say this is a banality, it seems, but often not
