and it is no coincidence that here is the latest trade information for the first quarter of this year showing an increase in mutual. uh, the mutual trade turnover between russia and china by 29%, this is really a very impressive growth, and despite all these sanctions, which already in march, actually began to operate and at the same time we, uh, increased the share of yuan in gold and foreign exchange reserves. at the expense of, of course, the currencies of western countries, which are not currently accumulated there, so we find ways to really protect our economy. well, we are already proceeding from the fact that yes, they need great upheavals in the west, but we certainly need great russia, great russia will be only when we really successfully complete the special military operation. they leave us no other choice. because when they said that their goal is not peaceful ukraine, but victory over russia,

we simply have no other choice. uh, because, well, in this case, our cause is absolutely right. victory i am sure will be ours. we pass the baton to the news and meet again in this studio at 4:55 pm. do not miss. hello, at the first, we will tell you about the most important events right now. moscow intends to radically increase the share of settlements in the national currency in foreign trade, president vladimir putin has just announced this in novogarevo. continues a series of industry meetings. today, the focus is on the situation in the oil and gas sector. the head of state said there are failures in the payment of oil and gas supplies by non-friendly

countries to the banks of these states. they simply delay the transfer of payments, therefore, from the euro and the dollar. necessary gradually withdraw, while western partners are practically shooting themselves in the foot, refusing our energy resources of trade, european countries are constantly talking about refusing russian supplies. what further destabilizes the market and inflate themselves with their own hands, first of all for their citizens, moreover, they are ready to forget about their so-called green agenda and again rely on energy with a so-called high carbon footprint, which until recently i wanted to completely cover up called it archaic and dirty, many political forces built their election campaigns on environmental ones. where is it all? now it's all just thrown in the trash. it works in practice quite

differently from the outset, serious experts and analysts warned, moreover, they publicly said that an accelerated green transition in practice would be impossible to implement without very high costs. so everything turned out to be in practice, and now there is a wonderful reason to cover up your own miscalculations and blame everything in this case on russia moreover, miscalculations and incompetence not only in the energy sector, but also in many other areas. of course we need to take into account. these throwing constantly galloping line of behavior of some foreign countries, but guided now and for years to come. we need our own interests. the ministry of defense today told new data on the course of a special operation to protect the civilian population in the donbass in mariupol , 134 more ukrainian servicemen

, including 14 officers, voluntarily laid down their arms and surrendered overnight, and in just a day they surrendered over 1,000 isu marines are captured and demilitarization is progressing well. in recent days, the number of enemy targets destroyed by russian missiles and artillery has increased many times over, 770 objects were hit in a day. including nine command posts in almost 550 districts, the accumulation of apu firepower, s -300 anti-aircraft missile systems and an ammunition depot. the pentagon revealed the details of what weapons and in what quantity kiev will receive from washington as part of a new military aid package. it's in in particular, another batch of mi-17 helicopters - three hundred attack drones, 200 armored personnel carriers, as well as howitzers, radars for direct guidance and mobile radar stations, it is noted that washington is providing part of the weapons to kiev for the first time, that is, the ukrainian military will still need to be trained by the americans

plan to do. it is not in ukraine that they are going to take out representatives of the apu in groups abroad. and by the way, they won’t pilot the same helicopters themselves, pentagon spokesman john kirby literally said that he didn’t know how messi 17 will be delivered to ukraine a new package, let me remind you , is estimated at 800 million dollars. and just during the administration of joe biden. washington has already allocated more than 3 billion to help the kiev authorities, by the way today, exactly eight years since kiev unleashed hostilities in the donbass on april 14, in years, a decree came into force on the start of the so -called anti-terrorist operation of shelling civilians, the west which is pumped with weapons i did not notice ukraine all these 8 years and now it becomes clear. why in abandoned positions vsu finds evidence that ukrainian security forces

and national battalions have been receiving support in the fight against their fellow citizens for a long time. callsign. the frenchman even pay attention to the commander of the unit of the military unit from the headquarters of sergeant mikhail sazansky, that is, they had a reform and they completely moved away from the ranks that were in in the soviet union, they took over all military ranks from the start. that is, if ours was a sergeant, they had a headquarters sergeant and studied with the same headquarters of voront sergeants, officers and first lieutenants, almost in every room there are textbooks by american and european authors, so that the apartment of the ministry of the army washington prepares foreign instructors according to their nato methods america, how the special forces worked and how the us army soldiers work, they were also supplied from abroad. moreover, large-caliber rifles were brought one of the best specialized

golden peru in the west who worked with baryts. you see, this disassembled sniper rifle was, you see, even the sights were expensive. they have an optical semi-detected sniper school certificate issued to a senior soldier stating that he successfully completed a course of firing at medium and long distances with an american-made barrett m107 sniper rifle, they were pumped with all this with one goal to exterminate as many residents of luhansk and donetsk people's republics as possible. each sniper had his own arrow card. they recorded everything. here they consistently shot 36-48 shots per day. here are all the cartridges for people. for military personnel, for civilians, for infrastructure and civilians, not all of them were killed, some were taken prisoner in this building. apparently, they once kept livestock. pigs here, chickens here they started keeping people here. here is a certain semblance of a

dish from which the prisoners ate and drank and warm clothes. which was wrapped up so as not to freeze completely, according to the documents found training to bypass began in the west of ukraine and they finished and passed, what is called final exams already on the territory of donbass in the zone of hostilities, they trained. destroying the military personnel of the people's militia, these were the trainings they had realistically, their not a percentage of efficiency, uh, everything is indicated in english, preparations are underway, including children, especially as far as we know, they use orphanages for abandoned children. they nurture from infancy the new generation, which will be complete. well, i i can’t even say it’s anti-russian, it’s not anti-russian, but there’s practically nothing anti-human in russian here. russia is mentioned only as an enemy in the tests, which checked the level of patriotism of the fighters to remain in the ranks of the ukrainian army. could those who believed that russian troops

entered the territory of ukraine 8 years ago. there are questions about when russia's allied armed aggression against ukraine began. that is, the answers. so he celebrated the 20th of the fierce, that is, in february 2014, all this time they were convincing that they are not fighting with the militias with the russian army, but when our fighters really came here, the militants came and surrendered their positions and tried to attack from the air in order to somehow get even. well it failed shells. delivered by nato exploded every other time. these things are being dropped from drones. usually here are the so-called surprises. wow, she's the only one that didn't break. here is the second one here. uh, purely french production. that is, this has never been seen before. well no. first, conflicts from the fourteenth year, this did not exist, then now they are much more wealthy than the task force, which they found. this location will continue to look for snipers. they say they will try to take it alive, then there will be a trial, and everything will be according to the law. they must

answer for the murder of civilians, children of innocent people. and if the militants try to hide under the guise of civilians, they will sooner or later be identified thanks to the lists of personnel left behind and photograph america anton krasov yegor shelekhov channel one luhansk people's republic new automobile checkpoints yarkovichi, in the bryansk region, fired from the territory of ukraine, this was reported today to the border department of the fsb, the fire was fired from mortars at that moment there were more than 30 ukrainian civilians on the territory of the border crossing who were heading to russia, the firing point was suppressed by return fire, according to the department, the damage was received two cars, on which the refugees arrived, were not injured, the checkpoint continues to operate as usual. the collective west, under the pretext of the ukrainian crisis, announced russia’s total hybrid war was announced today by the head of our ministry of foreign affairs sergey lavrov, he spoke at the mgimo conference on digital international relations, as the minister noted.

the west, having proclaimed itself literally light than democracy, is trying to solve its narrowly selfish tasks to the detriment of the national interests of other countries and grossly violates international obligations. this also applies to freedom of expression , as well as equal access to information. there are many examples of how the west demonstrates intolerance to alternative points of view. we see how global western, primarily american, internet platforms are fan-blocked all over the world, the russian information resource is doing this defiantly, without hesitation. uh, the other day, for example, youtube restricted access to the briefing of the official representative of the ministry of foreign affairs of march 17 a little later . similarly, the account of the state duma was subjected to unreasonable restrictions. unreasonable restrictions are imposed on the publications of our ministry and our institutions on twitter only because we tell the truth

only because we back up our words with facts recognized as an extremist corporation meta continues to deliberately ignore direct calls for violence and murder against russian citizens posted on its platforms, democracy and liberalism of pluralism. here, of course, it is not observed, on the contrary, that censorship is intensifying and arbitrariness, i believe that this part is sanctioned and inflated by the western world of xenophobic culture, the abolition of everything russian is everything russian. in addition, another billion rubles will send the russian government to support business under the program of preferential lending, mikhail mishustin said today. mishustin. already doing well during the pandemic. now, according

to the prime minister, it is equally important to act in the same direction, and the cabinet of ministers recently decided to extend the loan holidays. for another six months. we spoke today at a meeting to support the aviation industry, which was one of the first to suffer from western sanctions. today, on behalf of the president, we will allocate 19.5 billion rubles to russian airlines. subsidies will be used to refund passengers the cost of tickets on routes that were canceled due to external restrictions, which will save the carrier's own working capital, which means there will be financial resources to ensure flight safety and maintain the airworthiness of aircraft . this is the top priority. more uh more one and a half billion rubles, we will send for partial compensation, and hmm the operating costs of russian airports in the south and central part of russia, well, you know, flights there are temporarily

limited due to the aggravated situation in ukraine, it is now extremely important to support the infrastructure of airports, and, of course, to keep a qualified staff. development of the pharmaceutical industry today, at the site of the technopolis, moscow, deputy prime minister, tatyana golikova, minister met with drug manufacturers and heads of large companies healthcare mikhail murashko and moscow mayor sergei sobyanin before the meeting inspected the production of medicines for medical devices. the mayor of moscow noted that the pharmaceutical industry is the most important industry from an economic social point of view and from the point of view of national security. one of the main issues today. what measures can be taken to accelerate import substitution? despite the fact that a-a foreign manufacturers have not refused to supply, uh, here, or medicines and medical devices. defect work,

that is, the temporary absence on the market due to logistical difficulties of certain products is of extreme importance and in order not to depend, and on this we, together with colleagues from the ministry of industry and trade of the ministry of health of the regions, are working out completely groups of medicines, and medical devices that can be quickly enough, and to reproduce or make on the territory of the russian federation serious changes in attitudes towards this industry in moscow, the volume of investments over this period of time will increase 10 times, new modern factories are randecentres and continue to develop within the framework of both offset children and private investments, which we also support, a lot has been done recently for a. ah, the leveling of the sanctions that we

currently have. the transformation in russia in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was the main theme of the meeting in the house of the russian historical society . whose ideas were ahead of their time and made the country move sergey naryshkin, chairman of the russian historical society, urged the chairman of the russian historical society to turn to their experience to draw lessons that are relevant today. he recalled that 10 years ago, at the suggestion of vladimir putin, a monument to stolypin was erected in the capital. on the monument are engraved the words of peter arkadyevich in the defense of russia, we must all combine our efforts to coordinate our duties and our rights in order to maintain one historical supreme right of russia to be strong. russia

today enjoys this worthy right russia is strong independent sovereign state, and will be even stronger. and that's all for now. i pass the word to my colleagues, the program will continue the information channel. time will tell. the information channel on the first continues time will show anatoly kuzichev olesya loseva today, according to local residents, the border village of klimovo, bryansk region, was hit by units of the armed forces. it all happened at about 12:00 pm shells hit residential buildings. seven people were injured, three are in critical condition. all of them were hospitalized one child was injured, a pregnant woman was attending schools, while the canceled children were sent home, a funnel formed on one of the streets and, as

reported by the rider, it was obvious from the scene. in this funnel lies a fragment from a shell, rszo hail. yes , presumably here, one can say, yes, presumably, that he was sent to the bryansk region from the side of ukraine from the ukrainian side, taking into account the fact that in the ukrainian telegram channels there, uh, it is already accelerating that it was russia that fired at itself. it's pretty pretty regular interpretation of any event. here, it's understandable. what's this? that's how i understand it, it's a provocation. well , if they write that it is russia itself means it understands. uh, there they understand that this is a provocation that should move us to some kind of action. and here, of course, it is quite difficult. so to speak, a fork between the actions of inaction. yes on the one hand, we do not understand some sergeevich that we are being drawn into something into something by some kind of provocation, which means, on the other hand. we don't want to get involved in it. and here i repeat here between action and inaction,

how very difficult very difficult. something needs to be done in this regard, i think it is very right to just give, firstly, the official position in our ministry of defense, which said yesterday, by the way, at a briefing, that incidents are behind such gates. and excuse me, i’ll say in such a simple folk language, the answer will arrive, and it will arrive in relation to the center for making political decisions. sorry then. i will remind you that yes. this was said by the department of defense yesterday. and today we are today as an answer to i wanted to say with threats that it was simply done not easily with the aim of another provocation. of course, they, apparently, tried again. uh, so that, uh, ordinary people suffer, yes, in the bryansk region, that is, in fact, people who have nothing to do with the special operation at all, but in this case, it seems to me, this is a really clear indicator of how they relate, well, actually to our official

position. they are absolutely not afraid. they provoke they want to look and they're afraid of the word. maybe even to check for weaknesses, i still want to quote the words of the president of our president, who was on march 5, and in the context of how kiev behaved then on march 5. he uttered the quote virtually verbatim if kiev continues to do what he is doing hinting at both provocations and the use of civilians as human shields and terrorist sabotage things. at that time, by the way, there were no shellings of our regions. our president said that the question of the existence of ukrainian statehood would be raised. we all we are well aware that e decision is a political decision to make, this or that response in the political sphere, the military sphere, and so on. it always burns out his president, and our president never. and it seems to me that this is very correct, and we, if we really appreciate it, do not act. uh, emotionally it's always a strategic approach. this is always a cold calculation, but in this case, i will try to express the opinion of society, and it seems to me that this is the right in

a sense, because i am a public chamber and, again, i communicate with people of social networks, they constantly ask about this kind of provocation, when the safety of our borders, the safety of people who are on the territory of our country, is already being called into question. will it be then, how soon will this answer be, because and what you answer is no, it’s interesting, very simply, i say it again, i always say that there is never a need to rush, but we have the position of president. there is a position of the ministry of defense. they show that their words are always followed by concrete actions, which, firstly, in fully answer these questions. and secondly, very often they are so unexpected, including for this ukronazi scum that has settled in kiev, but the fact that society is in a state of expectation is that society needs answers to these questions. i think it's important to talk about it, by no means. let's go then. well, trying to formulate these answers to the questions of all of us are the same. yes, uh, here, look at us now, georgy

medvedev is on direct line. we are right now. let's talk to him, because george i understand you have to go to the shelter, yes georgiy what's going on there? hello, probably the most extreme broadcast for all the time of our work with you. and, because here, but they were checking the connection, while several shells were preparing to go on the air, they fell somewhere. that's quite close. i am near the entrance to a residential building. is there a bomb shelter where you need to lower it? well, as you can see, i'm not leaving. e from the rapids, because several shells fell very close, then, ah, there was shelling. i understand from neighboring houses. and now you have to constantly to listen to the sounds, and a few minutes of silence and again heavy work resumed, worked out the degree of the ukrainian side, in principle, now yasinovataya is under fire around the clock. uh, just returned from the place where one person was killed and two wounded on the territory of a local enterprise of one of the main city-forming, and under the shelling of residential buildings, only three people were injured

today, and many houses were damaged, one burned down. e fully restored is not subject to tenements. at home, the situation is the same, that is to describe somehow briefly what is happening, if the guilty one is very difficult, but the situation here, uh, is simply terrible people. here, uh, behind me is a basement in a koto-uh, to whom i said, people have been sitting there since yesterday with small children going up to the apartment. well, it's not hard for you. if it's mine, if it's possible. and, if it doesn’t affect your safety in any way, turn someone over to tell the phone’s camera to change to show what’s around. a perhaps you see, the usual ordinary peace court. yes, the car is standing by. this house yesterday a woman died, lord, the military yard of a small

town yes, spring there you can reach points of some kind of firing points here, just people here women old people children, on which ukraine is working non-stop from hailstones. i repeat from the city yes, that's it, georgy once. there is some kind of danger for you, taking into account what you remember, yes, they have a separate score for the military correspondents there, uh, to them to you, so go quietly to the bomb shelters. thank you very much for the inclusion. be careful. thanks georgy medvedev was with us on direct connection. well, of course, here, listen here. you can talk there for hours to describe there. and this is how the geo-p- turned the camera of the phone, yes, that's all. has changed. it's all a feeling, and the usual courtyard. peaceful green, where their devils fly. take shells. yes, this is not. it’s no longer mirny who says that shells fly in and fly over those

people who live there and how much they are to blame there, he’s already ironing, but they’ve been endlessly for the last week just already hyperactive there and people are constantly dying hyper there and you see, she’s to us they said, it doesn’t go out of my head either, that it’s all to blame. now it is even more dangerous than in mariupol just peaceful city. well, let's get back to the bryansk region. the main thing for me is to understand alexandrovich for me, the main thing is to understand what he provokes us to. well, obviously, well, the truth means that they fired on the ministry of defense came out and said something means that there will be a serious answer. the fire that is necessary immediately after these words was fired again, asking for an answer. for what purpose, in my opinion, for the force that now, uh, for whom zelensky is a mouthpiece that threatens their opinion, that is, for this collective west that speaks through zelensky , including with ukraine, for them this blow to the center of a friend of decisions, perhaps

missile, perhaps high. accurate on certain objects will probably become another reason for another big information provocation against russia, that is, they will put cameras at the right points in the city, because it will roughly represent where the missiles will arrive. they will cover peace shield. they will make appropriate bloody staged, possibly additional video materials, and then all this will go to our well -known world media for a long time, the so-called and that's it. this is what the world has to say for now. that is, you see to such an extent, that is, they, that is, they cause. well, on the territory of themselves they are trying to evoke an answer, because for the sake of zelensky's picture it was written. no, we must understand that this does not find the rocket did not fly in again, that is, it provokes. russia's answer for the sake of the picture let's remember. how many historical architectural values ​​are located in kiev, who? can now give a guarantee that after some high? again, a very

precise strike, which will not be a very selective strike, undermining some well-known and very expensive orthodox shrines in the world or simply architectural buildings that will also be dumped on russia, that is, they could be you guess. they could be specially mined in order to apply the settings in which case use such use of russia for informational purposes. of course they can. the only thing. at what point in my mind? this is such a small one, as if a provocation could not seriously hit them, they are playing. that is, they say, come on, here is such a projectile on such and such, or you will react with a precision strike or limit such a conversation on tv, of course. that is, look, it means, uh, the version is such that it stands for the sake of the picture, but in the broad sense of the picture for the sake of another information provocation, which will unite the western world even more, which will justify any any sanctions any any hatred there any. well, i don’t know how it relates to russians, and so you already understand, yes, you are already such a russian russian

suite in general. we do not allow this report to be approved. there , in the telegram, it also accelerates amazingly completely russian tires, we will puncture them, at least in the restaurant let's go and so on, in general, you are all scum and so on. that is, it will generally be a completely consolidated decent, as it were, decent approach. eh, and as a concept of attitude towards russians. what do you think? what are they probing for? on what kind of provocation are they trying to pull us out? well, first of all, we need to tell the truth for ourselves. come on , this conflict. i softly call her. this is war. this is not between ukraine and russia, between the united states of america, great britain, nato, they participate in full. they are starting the so-called, well, light weapons are not lethal today they reach heavy weapons. they are even ready to transfer medium-range missiles. that is, they are really involved. i’m not talking about information, i’m saying that they are transmitting all intelligence data and so further. this situation does not resemble one story, there is such a picture where there is such an episode of hunting

for a bear with dogs, there the hunter is standing and the dogs are in the area. here it is reminiscent of the present time and the time not so distant, when they tried to talk like that with the soviet union in the sixty-second year and the americans were the architects of the caribbean crisis, they did not create the conditions for the soviet union. how many asked the soviet remove medium-range missiles no, then what did the bear do, he moved towards the hunter not the dogs of the dog. it's consumable materials. yes, he broke some along the way, but it was a great bear today, of course, smaller, but he knows the experience of his father, we must move towards those who give orders. they themselves create the caribbean crisis. it’s really necessary to explain today on the territory of america, but how to move. what do you know? i don't think it's possible to repeat the history

of placing missiles in cuba i don't think so, but there are enough funds in russia to demonstrate the determination to use these means if the americans do not hear because the americans today on the territory of ukraine to unwind.
