reconnaissance regiments of aviation reconnaissance regiments and a large satellite constellation, if we want to be aware of everything that happens, we need at least half. that was the power to return. but right now the russian armed forces are in very good shape and are demonstrating this special operation. yes, some links must already obviously be strengthened both by the professional jamb of the army and by means of electronic warfare. for the sake of electronic intelligence, intelligence in general. uh, absolutely right, but in this case, we should just support our armed forces, which are now starting the decisive battle in ukraine. because this is really a decisive battle. 90% of the most combat-ready units of the ukrainian army are now in the donbass. trained personnel, behind which nato stands, but we are

stronger and ukraine is naturally doomed to defeat. because our cause is just and victory will certainly be ours. we pass the baton to the news and meet again in this studio at 19:55. do not miss. evening news with you on channel one andrey kharev the situation in the economy has stabilized stocks of goods and demand for them has recovered, because the russian economy has withstood pressure from the outside it was discussed at a meeting held by vladimir putin the monstrous provocation of the ukrainian authorities with the support of western countries told our ministry of defense about the preparation nazis

the ruble on the stock exchange continued to strengthen. despite the fact that now the bank is allowed to trade currency again natalya yuryeva with details. according to the president, all measures taken to improve the stability of the russian economy in the conditions sanctions are working effectively, the calculation was to quickly undermine the financial and economic situation in our country, to provoke panic in the markets, the collapse of the banking system, and a large-scale shortage of goods in stores. well, we can already confidently say that such a policy towards russia has failed; the strategy of the economic relative has failed; moreover, the sanctions have not been in vain for the initiators themselves. i mean the growth of inflation and unemployment, the deterioration of economic dynamics in the united states and european countries, the decline in living standards europeans. devaluation of their savings. russia, as i already said, withstood this unprecedented pressure, the

situation stabilizes, the ruble exchange rate returned to the levels of the first half of february and is determined by an objectively strong balance of payments, according to the results of the first quarter, the positive balance of the current account of the balance of payments exceeded $ 58 billion . and this is a historical maximum. the countries are returning to the banking system on a personal basis, foreign currencies are growing, the volume of deposits of citizens has stabilized in the consumer markets, after a brief rush in a number of goods, and this happens in such situations, constantly always retail demand. commodity stocks in the trading network have returned to normal and are being restored, while i note that we did the right thing when we did not resort to manual artificial regulation of the market, but instead, on the contrary, gave freedom to private business to find

the most appropriate, effective solutions. delivery of goods to the retail network. availability of necessary products in stores separately vladimir putin dwelled on the topic of inflation. now it is stabilizing, but at the same time, we are all well aware of this only over the past month and a half, consumer prices in russia have increased noticeably, i hope four tenths of a percent, and in annual terms, as of april 8, inflation was 17.5%, i draw the attention of colleagues central bank corrections we know all about it very well. these are very high values ​​people. uh, feel it on their family budget , feel how the prices have gone up. she needs support our citizens to help them cope with the inflationary wave. in this regard, let me remind you that the decision has already been made to index all social payments, pensions and

salaries of specialists employed in the public sector. the specific parameters of such an increase should be prepared by the government as a safety margin for the president's russian economy. there are about it. first of all. says the surplus of the budget system is more than a trillion rubles at the federal level and about 900 billion. at the regional closed part, the meeting discussed, among other things, proposals government and the central bank on the disposal of these funds in the first quarter of this year recorded a record level of surplus in the budget system. additional solutions are needed here, and they need to be implemented exactly at the moment when it is most necessary to save, of course, you need to be careful, i understand, but at the same time, the key condition, of course, remains the long-term stability of the financial system. at both the federal and regional levels, the president also ordered to accelerate the transition of foreign trade to settlements in rubles and in national currencies of the countries of

russia's reliable business partners natalya yuryeva ekaterina yarorenko and sergey romanov channel one. the ukrainian authorities, with the support of western countries, are planning to arrange a monstrous provocation with a large number of victims on easter night, in order to then blame the russian troops for what happened . fire at orthodox churches, including with mortars. it is known that the churches in zaporozhye, mykolaiv, odessa, sumy and kharkiv regions were chosen as targets , as western reporters will spin fakes and accusations against the russian military. now the footage that has been circulated today by our ministry of defense at work, the operational-tactical complex iskander m, on the video, the launcher of the missile system went to a given position, preparation, and then the launch of a ballistic missile. as noted in our defense department, a

command post of weapons and a military equipment with apu personnel. information about the location of the target was received through intelligence channels and was confirmed during the verification of these data. the british mercenaries who laid down their arms in mariupol addressed their prime minister today. boris johnson, we are talking about those two citizens of the united kingdom who fought on the side of the nazis and surrendered together with hundreds of marines to the armed forces, foreigners recorded a video message in which they ask the british authorities to help exchange them for viktor medvedchuk, an opposition politician captured by special services ukraine, according to these mercenaries, it is johnson who should put pressure on zelensky so that he does the right quote. pavel chelkin carefully listened to the recording. boris johnson if you're watching this video, i'm speaking on my own behalf and on behalf of sean pinner. if you really care about our

lives and the life of viktor medvedchuk, then you will do the right thing and help exchange us for viktor so that viktor can return to his family freely, and we to our families, so that we can continue life as british family people aiden, aislin and sean pinner in futan along with the right. wild geese. what are they called at home? or is it simpler ? the mercenaries went to ukraine to shoot some russians and soon realized that the exciting safari , as usual, did not work out. as far as i know, viktor medvedchuk is being held in custody. aiden eslin and i would like to be traded for him we would be grateful for your help in this matter i am being contacted. well i understand the position i'm in is all i can say we're being fed and the train. i ask you on my behalf from named aida for esslin, to facilitate the exchange of us for medvedchuks, both of them were considered attack aircraft of the thirty-sixth brigade of the marine corps of the armed forces, and surrendered, along with other hundreds of ukrainian

marines, not a single army in the world takes prisoners in the battle of mercenaries; the women's convention of prisoners of war does not apply to them. so they can be said to be lucky. now they are grasping at straws. this is an appeal from medvedchuk's wife to the prime minister of england, more soo johnson. listen to him. dear mr. prime minister johnson, i am oksana marchenko wife of the opposition politician, ukrainian parliament member viktor medvedchuk, i appeal to you for help in exchanging my husband illegally detained by the kiev authorities for political reasons and false accusations, it was oksana marchenko who offered to exchange her husband for these two british mercenaries who are in captivity of the army and the dpr this happened . after kiev showed photos of the exhausted party leader, the opposition platform for the life of viktor medvedchuk, who, according to the sbu, fled under house arrest and was captured during

trying to leave ukraine but medvedchuk's wife is sure that, judging by his appearance, he has been behind the walls for a long time, where he is being tortured. these pictures were taken at the beginning and during interrogation. no, no doubt, he was beaten already in the first hours. after the detention, information about medvedchuk's arrest appeared immediately after more than a thousand ukrainian marines surrendered in mariupol and the opposition politician was clearly shown in order to divert public opinion from the mass surrender of his military, while zelensky was mocking. he offered to exchange medvedchuk. for everyone, soldiers who surrendered in mariupol are clearly not counting on russia's consent about british mercenaries. he still has not said a word, but they do not lose hope asking relatives to influence the authorities. calls, brother, you communicate with kevin let kevin run a media company to put pressure on the british and ukrainian authorities and achieve. i'm sorry. we need to

put more pressure on them to trade me and sean pinner for ukrainian politician medvedchuk. he writes a message to his brother, please tell larisa that i love her very much. want ask you to contact our constituency deputy to get in touch with boris johnson. we ask for my release one option. how to do this to convince zelensky to exchange medvedchuk for a seiden one, while the mercenaries, having a conversation, explain to their relatives and the rest of the british that they were shocked by the attitude of the ukrainian military and nazis and the call to the civilian population, it was decided without hesitation to use him as a human shield justified on the first day when we arrived in mariupol already asked about the possibility of leaving. yes, and i myself thought that this would be a sound decision, since we are talking about a city and we need to leave it for the benefit of the civilian population. instead, the

administration of president zelensky and the command of the armed forces told us to stay and defend the city, even realizing what losses among the civilian population - this will turn out well. the fact that kiev has been violating the peace agreement for 8 years and killing civilians in donbass with impunity, he tells the british about this, not for the purpose of watering information, in order to escape, so that at home they understand that if zelensky spit on their civilians, the population and the military, then they do not care about the two british mercenaries who were lost in captivity , so they are trying to achieve pressure from london on kiev, most likely, pavel chelkin was given in vain. i srazhetdinova kirill loginov channel one the government will create a system of wholesale food markets in russia. the concept has already been approved, said mikhail mishustin, he sent a meeting with the vice-premiers to the manufacturers. the result will be new sales opportunities. and from people in order to buy quality

products at affordable prices. we also talked about public services. all of them should go electronic by the end of next year . necessarily medical now, not all public services are provided electronically . well, for example, to obtain a compulsory medical insurance policy, a person must personally apply to an insurance company or a multifunctional center. from now on, all processes of providing state and municipal services will be consistently digitized and presented proactively. this will allow to by the end of next year, to nullify paperwork and time-consuming financial costs for people, as well as significantly reduce the time for providing services, while citizens will continue to be able, if necessary, to issue in person and receive the necessary certificate or statement on paper in multifunctional centers or in departments.

our military these days are not only brilliantly coping with the tasks of a special operation to protect the donbass, but they continue to prepare for victory day, a rehearsal of the parade in the morning took place in alabiya near moscow 11,000 military personnel a large number army technology. basically, naturally modern, but there is also a legendary participant in the solemn inspection. here is such a t-34 tank, one of the symbols of our victory in the great patriotic war , he heads the mechanized system. well, the weather today made it possible to see our aviation in all its glory, 77 helicopters and planes will fly over red square. may 9 and for the first time in the sky, the latin letter z is one of the symbols. the special operation for the defense of donbass was built by eight russian mig-29 fighters, all the details in our reports correspondents anastasia kubozeva and oleg shishkin when there are loudspeakers, the kremlin chimes chime, you involuntarily begin to look for the spassky tower so reliably in alabina the atmosphere of the parade on

victory day is created everything is clear in seconds, even the moment when half a minute before the command the parade quietly over red square comes, ringing silence . they didn’t forget here either, so the heart begins to beat louder when, under the holy war, the russian flag and the knowledge of victory in honor of victory day are carried out in vain, the regulations are the same as on red square only instead of aurus convertibles, on which the parade commander is with the minister of defense. here, army uazs loudly cheer can be heard far beyond the classroom. 11,000 people are marching typing a step on concrete. for the first time in history , 164 people will also participate in the parade in honor of victory day. they went through a rigorous selection process and now they are giving their all for the pay, just like the kuban cossacks. they are easy to recognize by their

polished daggers. many military participated in the parade on red square more than once, but they still admit that even at the rehearsal , everyone is worried about unforgettable feelings. yes, even here the parade is a big event. preparation must be appropriate to all tense in great excitement. every time, like the first, i would say not excitement, but rather some kind of pride. she just performs and every time we play we feel that we're not just walking in a box. we go all over the country almost every day for 2-3 hours to the platform and so for more than a month their rain and snow along with men, the girls endure so much hardship and deprivation, by the way, women's front boxes after training receive an excellent rating. i think we are the decoration of this parade. we perfectly complement it, of course, with our smile with our marching step, endurance and bearing 120 steps per minute, ideally, even order of filigree coherence. and accuracy. this is the result of hard training in labin. under the feet of concrete march on the pavement of red square. it will be much

harder to feel the elbow and the shoulder of a comrade never fail, so you always feel confident and equal in the process of training. it is never lost, the sounds of the consolidated brass band drown out the roar of engines. under the caterpillars or the earth trembles of a mechanized colony, more than 130 samples of military equipment, starting from the legendary t-34, everything. what our army and military-industrial complex are proud of. infantry fighting vehicles bmw 3, kurganets-25 tanks t-90m breakthrough t-14 air defense system flavor, family, bargaining and two complexes s-400. it's on the eye entered a multi-ton yards. kalabino was approaching the advanced army aviation on one of the helicopters , the largest transport helicopter mi-26 opened the air part of the parade. it is a cargo weighing up to 20 tons, and therefore there are no indicators for it, the giant will fly over red square, accompanied by attack helicopters mi-24

, in a matter of seconds, we will fly over the training ground. alabina playground exactly the same size as the red square keep helicopters, heavyweights on the same level filigree art and such work they trust only real ace the complexity of this shift today is an icy day - this is a wind turbulence, and the warming up with a thermal turbulence, when it comes, the sun starts to throw a little in different directions. it’s difficult for us that you need to keep this car at the same height at the same speed, a white swan appears in the sky, as a strategic missile carrier, a tu-160 bomber, is called married. this is the largest supersonic aircraft in the history of military aviation. and here is the novelty of this year for the first time eight fighters mig-29 smt will form the letter z in the sky, the symbol of the military special operation for the defense of donbass the legendary aerobatic teams in the

cube near moscow are preparing to take off. these guys have all movements calculated to the second, and each maneuver has been worked out to the smallest detail russian knights and swifts traditionally close the air part of the parade . only a few days left before the main holiday. and this means that rehearsals will be held more often next this wednesday, as the participants themselves say, they need to do everything possible and impossible to barat on red square anastasia kobazeva oleg shishkin alexey belov dmitry popkov channel one mass actions under the slogan for russia are taking place all over the country these days people support our military before victory day thousands of people went to a concert in volgograd with popular artists performing on the stage, and branches, for example, in izhevsk and novosibirsk , rockers ruled the ball, astrakhan naberezhnye chelny vologda cherepovets tver barnaul every day the marathon

opens new cities. at the same time, there are rallies, lectures and motor races with russian flags . and symbols of special operations. the federal air transport agency has extended restrictions on flights to yuzhny and some central airports of the country gelendzhik-anapa, simferopol, krasnodar, rostov-on-don, elista, belgorod-voronezh, kursk-lipetsk, bryansk, only 11 cities, the sky above them will remain closed until april 25, the reason for the restrictions is the situation. in ukraine , the rest of our airports operate as usual, the carrier recommends organizing temporary flights on alternative routes. sad news today did not become vyacheslav trubnikov hero of russia, former director of the foreign intelligence service, he held this post throughout the second half of the nineties and half of the most difficult critical periods in the history of our country, and devoted more than half a century to intelligence, he worked in the soviet years to a descendant in india and bangladesh in the zeros was the first deputy minister, foreign affairs and special representatives

president in the cis countries, he returned to india already in the rank of ambassador of russia trubnikov be proud of the first director of the foreign intelligence service worthy of the title. hero of russia among his awards two orders of the red star order of merit for the fatherland and more than 20 medals, including foreign vyacheslav trubnikov was 78 years old. serious complex, but difficult and dangerous service in intelligence, just today on channel one a new serial film is a spy drama based on real events, a story about how a thirty-year-old editor of an agricultural publication. pavel fitin, in just a year became the youngest head of the soviet intelligence service and turned it into one of the most influential in the world. the head of intelligence eight exciting episodes, and on kurbatova learned how this movie was shot. sometimes it may seem like this does not happen in life. but no, still, as it happens. this is a movie

based on real events. intelligence fizzled out. well, in an amateurish way guys in hats walk around suspecting one after another the prime minister on the first this is the story of the youngest head of soviet intelligence at that time, thirty-year-old pavel fitin. remember in seventeen moments of spring encryption alex yusta court so here the prototype of that same alex is pavel fitin. head of foreign intelligence of the ussr, but do not forget that he has been higher in this post over the past year and a half. thank you for your trust. he headed the department from the thirty-ninth to the forty- sixth year, he completely rebuilt the system of bringing intelligence to the top leadership of the country. and it was he who personally reported to stalin in june 1941 about the upcoming german invasion and your sources and for the attention. information, you understand that you have

signed your own death warrant, even if you are on one the day i made a mistake , acting employees of the foreign intelligence service worked as consultants with actors so that you remember all the names of the date of birth, who where where what time did you come, because sometimes every little thing is important from one minute scouts are illegal for me scouts especially these are knights who do not know no fear, no reproach from the very important trials that come. u's on his way to a man doing illegal intelligence. it seems to me, some kind of global loneliness. dad in the life of the chief intelligence officer of the union was secret almost everything was secret even for the closest, after the filming of the film, we met with the son of pablo fitin, vladimir fitin, but when we found out at all that your father was the head of stirlitz, it was pointless to

ask some scout questions. never speaks their meeting with their father tells this silent fishing. a game of tennis, if conversations, then never about work that his father was the head of intelligence found out when some of the information about him had already been declassified and still is. he can only guess for what all these awards are on his chest, including the order of the red the banner that was received for special courage and courage in defending the fatherland is obviously thanks to intelligence. hmm, so to speak, a lot was done and uh in the initial period and let's say the situation on the kursk bulge, when messages came in time uh. uh, in the situation with the atomic project, when we still managed to significantly help our physicists, uh, in the development of an atomic weapon that could destroy an entire city. maybe the whole country is a serial drama, the head of intelligence - this is

the history of the country in the history of the life of one person, real life, that this is an obligation they are disclosing by the states on kurbatov vladimir bokarev maria yemelyanova and pavel bonya channel one watch the first series of the spy drama chief of intelligence today immediately after the program time well , right now the information channel on the first continues to show time. hello, the program time will tell, we continue the information channel and artyom sheinin, we are working live today on april 18. uh, 98 years ago. uh, an event took place in our country, which for many of you is with us those who are in front of the tv. yes, and they think that for some of those who are now in the studio, and a large period of our life with you passed under the sign in the literal sense of the word of this event, because 98

years ago on this day, april 18, 24, the presidium of the central executive committee of the ussr approved the banner. and the state flag of the union of soviet socialist republics is the same one with a red hammer and sickle star, and under which many of us served, which we had on a military ticket, with which many of our victories were associated, that very flag is this it was red with a hammer and sickle star that was friendly over the reichstag and was repelled by the very army in which they fought together against nazism. russian ukrainians, belarusians and other peoples of the soviet union and in fact it is very symbolic that now, 98 years later, when our country no longer lives under this banner,

it is nonetheless under the state banner. how to say it? it nevertheless overshadows our history. our mentality overshadows our feelings of historical justice overshadows the understanding that we we are doing, in particular, what we are doing now as part of a special military operation in ukraine, and therefore it is no coincidence that over the plant of ilyich mariupol, the territory of which has already been liberated from the heirs of those same nazis. over whose capital that flag was awarded, and here the ukrainian flag is removed over the ilyich plant. and the same red flag is unloaded, as a symbol of the very victory of our common victory over nazism. i'm sure these are all the things that are being done and what i see on a lot of things. ah, our cars military in different regions. and the ukrainians who are fighting, this flag also appears for me, this is an

indicator that this understanding is intuitive , it grows from the inside in people, what we do, why we do and what historical significance all this has and therefore it is not accidental in the same hygienic kherson area, where a, apparently, there is already a local military-civilian administration. begins to establish a peaceful life. in the same place , the russian flag and the same flag appear on the administrative building. uh, red. and, by the way, this is a separate conversation about, well, who did we get there, and lenin, and also stands there. eh, this is a separate conversation for us. we still have to take him. are there many busts left in our cities? e vladimirovich lenin to the creation of the creator of the very ukraine that we are now liberating, and another very revealing story related to this very, e, red flag. uh, due to the fact that on the

night of saturday to sunday. and the rest of the truth is still a fairly large remnant of the nazis, who they continue, but they resist, and the surrounded blockaded on the territory uh, azov began, and the ministry of defense offered them to the corridors along which they can go out and u surrender and uh, our side marked these corridors, just with red flags and uh, i was very pleased with the photo , which alexander khodakovsky, the commander of the vostok e battalion, is fighting there as part of this operation, that one of these e, is just the flag of the flags that his units designated. and this same, uh, here is the corridor. yes, it was one of uh, here are such soviet flags. it seems to me that there is some deep symbolism in this
