the army is advancing, right? yes, well, i can’t say, again, i, these are my, so to speak, old positions, until i think that this is, you know, a general offensive, yes, the initiative has firmly passed into our hands, this is no longer denied by anyone at all, even the ukrainians admitted, zaluzhny admitted that the initiative completely passed to the russian troops , the capture of marinka, well, although... in general, the city was wiped off the face of the earth, but nevertheless, this is the key, this is the key to operational space, which allows further development of offensive actions in the direction slavyansk, kramatorsk, that is, towards the liberation of the entire territory of the donetsk republic, on all fronts, again , i say, little progress is being made, but...

on this issue - so this is what our engineering, railway troops, military builders did, creating contact lines with a length of 2.0 km, minefields with a length of 7.00 km and a depth of 600 m, which is twice the standard, moreover, 2.00 km of anti-tank ditches, one and a half million reinforced concrete anti-tank barriers, pyramid type e 450,000

dugouts, 150,000 shelters for equipment, i can’t imagine that the ukrainians, especially under the influence - under the constant fire - influence of our aviation, artillery, multiple launch rocket systems, will be able to create something like that, i say, watching their videos when an excavator digs a trench ... which immediately fills with water, because they apparently have neither the time nor the opportunity to carry out drainage work, and the weather conditions are not particularly conducive to this, uh, i think that besides mining, yes, throw mines, they can, but already, as our former partners calculated, uh, already 147,000 km, our former partners, this... 30%

of the territory of ukraine is already covered with mines, somewhere around 2 million mines are already, so to speak, located in ukrainian land, which significantly reduces their acreage and from an agricultural superpower, if things go like this, that is , mining goes like this at this pace, then they will actually turn into one. in consumers, they will buy wheat like the soviet union in the eighties, i don’t know, maybe from russia, through third countries, through third countries, either in canada, so i am optimistic, because again , i repeat once again that i hope that a large-scale strategically planned offensive operation will be carried out with liberation, with a decision on...

failure of the ukrainian offensive, which is why they say that, in general, ukraine needs to reduce its ambitions and, as you noted, move to tactics that are more defensive in orientation, so that we must hope that the supply of new western weapons that they somehow they will help ukraine, but i don’t see it.

to prepare for an offensive operation, as for technology,

frankly speaking, well, everyone also admits that the west has overspent, there are no production capacities in the united states, i’m not even talking about money, there is no money either. but even the production capacity of the united states, not to mention the european union, is simply not enough to produce equipment and especially ammunition in the quantities that ukraine needs. intensity of artillery fire of ukrainian artillery decreased compared to the summer of this year by 5-7 times. that is, ours has seven shots.

he speaks cautiously, moreover, he refutes zelensky , i didn’t talk about any half a million, but we said that we need people, but no specific numbers were mentioned, well, that is, some kind of, you know, the speech is rather disjointed and unconvincing, and it seems to me

that it is he and part of the military leadership that they understand, even the same ignat, commander of the ukrainian air force, speaking about '. no, no, i think zelensky and his immediate circle, i haven’t heard

a single sober thought from anyone, not from ermak, not from this podalak, except that they will drink tea there in yalta or coffee somewhere there, that they are about to take crimea. that they are winning, that russia was unable to liberate not a single village, not even a single village, they liberated almost 70% of what russia allegedly occupied there, well, somehow completely... divorced from reality, no, there, there , in my opinion, there are no sober-minded people there, on the one hand, it’s always nice to hear, that the enemy’s leadership does not have sober-minded people, but on the other hand, if you admit the possibility of negotiations, then the absence of sober-minded people, well, let’s say, is not inspiring, dmitry, i think that it will not be zelensky who will conduct the negotiations anyway, i think that the negotiations other people will lead. you mean washington, i mean, well, washington, naturally , he will determine everything, maybe he will appoint someone else, maybe

the end of negotiations will come, zelensky may not exist and his entourage, so no, i think that zelensky will not negotiate, thank you, but in the meantime , russian foreign minister sergei lavrov spoke at the general council of the united russia party, let's listen to what he said at the commission in general. council , commission, general commission, the strength of this process of forming a multipolar polycentric world lies precisely in the fact that this is the natural course of things, the natural course of things that countries gravitate to after they got rid of colonial oppression, which has recently come an insight into what goals the americans and their allies were achieving, promoting theirs...

and such a serious working discussion of the issues that were discussed, the main topic was - this is our brix chairmanship, it has many different dimensions, in fact, and this is very responsible for our country, because brix, especially since the brix has actually doubled, is an alliance that in itself presupposes polycentricity, that is, it is really... an alliance of states that are self-sufficient in many ways, not 100%, but in many ways

states, each of which plays a very important role on its own continent or in its own macro-region, each of which voluntarily decided to join this alliance, with each of which russia interacts in both a bilateral and multilateral format, but insofar as such a sharp increase occurs, then, of course, many questions arise in this regard, we have humanitarian dimensions, there are financial and economic dimensions, other dimensions of this alliance, and of course, there is huge opposition from the outside, here washington was mentioned, it is, so to speak, the main center of this opposition, this very polycentricity, and we are trying, through consensus, through the search for joint common projects, to still move forward, in the interests, first of all, of not fighting. with someone , as our enemies sometimes try to present it, the creation of such a favorable

world order in which everyone would be comfortable, safe, each of us would have a perspective as participants in the alliance, meaning that the circle will expand, we and this was discussed today, so to speak, and of course, i would not like to go into detail about the essence of this discussion now, but the most important thing is that this polycentricity, today it really opposes... this, it is variously called new colonialism, modern forms of neo-colonialism, in general, what comes from the neo-globalists, and what really contributes in their favor to the robbery of a huge number of states on all continents is not accidental, so we also advocate, and this commission implements this task, we advocate the creation of such a worldwide movement for freedom of the member countries of the united nations, which is very important and which fully corresponds to this approach to polycentricity, which was discussed today in sufficient detail and very

specifically. thank you, alexander dugin, you are a well-known expert on geopolitics and specifically polycentricity, tell us what this means in practice and what you think about what exactly the russian foreign minister said today. lavrov uses the two terms multipolar interchangeably. and this is written in the doctrine of our foreign policy, sometimes used as a synonym for polycentricity, this is approximately the same thing, we are talking about a completely different vision of world architecture than the model that prevailed until recently, until recently we were dealing with we were dealing with unipolar a world that formed itself through globalization, that is, it was a dishonest, dishonest dialogue, not an exchange of positions between various centers of power, independent, but it

was the imposition of a single model on the whole world, in other words, what i was talking about today lavrov, then... what we were dealing with until the last moment was the colonial system: there is a collective west, it is the center, this is the only pole, and no other poles were supposed, this pole, globalizing itself, projects, turns its ideas onto the whole world, and this is recognized by us and more and more by the chinese, indians, more and more by the number of participants in international life, as a new form of colonialism, a multipolar... world that russia defends today and which is already becoming more and more clearly embodied, clear forms in brix, we are now becoming the chairmen of this organization, this is an alternative system of world order, not colonial, not unipolar, essentially multipolar, where different civilizations entering brix assert themselves as

independent poles of this system, this is russia, of course, this is china, this is india. which it is catching up with us is the islamic world, presented in the new expanded brix format, through such fundamental countries as saudi arabia, egypt, uae, and iran, that is, these are the yeshuites, and the arabs, and the persians, this is the islamic civilization, africa, represented in ethiopia and the south african republic, and latin america, yes, for now in brazil, but i think that many latin american countries are also ready to join this, also egypt, i apologize. with a unipolar world, this explains all conflicts, this explains all contradictions, both in the middle east, in ukraine, and the future conflict with taiwan, and

this is a transition from the model that protects the majority of humanity, the great humanity. and conflict with unipolar globalist world, this is essentially the most important direction of world politics and our moment in history, from the one who will win in this most serious resistance in this clash of one civilization that claims to be universal and several civilizations that claim to have that lavrov polycentrism about which we say, the fate of a person depends on this.

for example, in venezuela soshikibo, with agayanna is also a colonial such a unipolar formation, so in all continents there are these new fronts, in my opinion, russia has a mission in 2024: to give this process clear, conceptual forms, to express what great humanity expects from us, clearly, unambiguously, our chairmanship is a unique chance to become, if you like... one of the full-fledged leaders, and may be the main leader in the constancy of this multipolar , fair, anti-colonial world, this is our mission, this is our chance, we are already fulfilling this role, but this chairmanship of brik, in brix for this year, can become a symbolic moment, then let’s say, this and that was the year of global transition when

multipolarity defeated unipolarity. alexander, how do russia and china feel about this mission? india and brazil, and the islamic world, and africa, i think everyone recognizes our leadership, there are no questions here, it was we who were opponents in the two-forest world of this global western civilization when we retreated from our mission in the nineties, from their calling, all these other civilizations have experienced horror, because there is no counterweight, there is only one hegemonic the power of the west. with which nothing can be done, and the fact that russia is returning to the role of world leaders is in the hands of everyone, the chinese, indians, africans, latin americans,

let russia be the first, we pay for it, they would agree, i think they all agreed this is for our role, we ourselves are pioneers, as usual, we are fighting for the interests of great humanity, now, i think, this is understood very well in china and with pleasure... they give this function to us, in the shadow of ours, ours, our efforts, our heroism, they are growing, and indians are growing, that is, we create conditions for everyone, we pay, and the beneficiaries are all participants in this multipolar model, if you allow me, i’ll just add, we have confirmation of your words, quite specifically organizational, the fact is that unanimously all the participants in this process, these are from all continents of the country, everyone you called,

the globalists, who are in power today in washington and in most european capitals, in european states, for them this is like death. and that's why i think they they are hitting us, they are hitting us economically with sanctions, they are fighting with us, arming ukraine, they, i think, are trying to use their tools inside russia to rock our society, destroy it, undermine our solidarity, our unity around the president, they will , of course , to knock out some elements, as they did with argentina after miley, that is, of course, they will not look at how we are building a multipolar world, they will fight with us,

and how far this war of the globalists is, only not even the west, namely the globalists, which have largely taken hostage the populations of the west, western countries, europe and america, that's how far they can go, i think it's very dangerous, they can go as far as outright direct war.

voices, well, the same german defense minister pistorius says that in 5-8 years we will have to fight with russia, so we need to prepare, we need to rebuild our military

industry and so on. and so on. poland, duda - yesterday, i think, he held a kind of round table there, he said that russia in general needs to be destroyed, physically, so that such the country did not exist at all, because it’s like hinduda remains president, remains president, he is the supreme commander-in-chief, he compared russia with a rabid beast that needs to be shot, otherwise he, so to speak, uh - like any rabid beast, having felt blood, he continues, so say kill. i'm not even talking about the baltic states, that is , voices began to be heard in europe that it is necessary to prepare for a war with russia, i am sure that yes, and they all say that they are not ready now, but they need, so to speak, time for in order to prepare, there is some kind of, you know, ambiguity in this, either they think, yes, at the same time they say that ukraine needs to be supported, because ukraine is a buffer, ukraine is just that

country. which will allow them to gain time to prepare, that is, you see, either they expect that this special military operation will last another 5-8 years, and ukraine is still capable of resisting for such a long time even with western help, or they don’t realize at all what they are, what they say, that is...

i agree with this, and it seems to me that here we have a very difficult and extremely important task for russian diplomacy: on the one hand, if you begin to give rise to talk that russia may be an aggressor, that after ukraine, russia could strike at some other countries, nato members, let’s face it.

it will turn out, you know, in fact , the policy that we are pursuing is for smart people, including in continental europe, it is already more or less clear, i immediately after our events with sergeyomovich lavrov, held a video conference with some european politicians, including members of the european parliament, but there are people there who still understand what is really going on, and i just wouldn’t like to name either names or countries, but

believe me, this is definitely not poland at all. and not the baltics, there were people there from more serious, so to speak, places, they are extremely worried about this, this mood, they understand what russia is, in this regard, because we but they have never called, i mean at the highest political leadership, for some kind of attacks on the european union, on nato, nothing of this has happened, we are still acting reactively, that is, we are defending ourselves, defending ourselves, we are forced, this means that we must also use military-technical methods, and this was said before everything started, this was said first in mid-december of the year 21, then we repeated this several times, including in the parliamentary dimension, that's what i did, too, repeated, and now people are starting to wake up to something of what we said, when they combine what we said with what is happening, they begin to understand that they do not want to be hostages, let’s say politicians, not even washington, and politicians...

these neoliberals, neo-globalists, they make a big difference here, then they look at polls of their own public opinion, look, before the well-known events related to the northern military district, as far as i remember. i may be slightly wrong in percentage, but here are the residents of holland, answering to the question whether they are ready to defend their state with arms in hand, then it was 25% , approximately, now it is 15, this has changed in 2 years, they also look at their electorate, so yes, indeed, people who have relied on russophobia in the baltic states in poland, they have nowhere to retreat, because this is the only thing that feeds them in power, everyone else, they are thoughtful and ready for some practical steps... they don’t really understand what, because, it seems to me, they have a plan b not today, and this is one of the reasons for the problems that we sometimes encounter, that is, they act chaotically , so far, unfortunately, we only hear voices, these hysterical voices

of russophobes, but there are other people there, of course, it is reassuring that there are other people, but here’s what i want to tell you, that’s when the cold war began in america too...

the principle of civilian control over the armed forces in some countries has been elevated to an absolute, i absolutely apologize for the toftology, when people are appointed to the post of minister of defense, well, no, no just so to speak, who have nothing to do with the armed forces, but who did not have any military experience, and do not even have political experience, much less international experience, and... they are still the minister of defense, yes, in many countries, they are not engaged, so to speak, in the direct construction of the armed forces, but the policy of building the armed forces, the direction of development of the armed forces, is determined by them, when you listen, even to the same pistorius, i

am, frankly speaking, the minister of defense of germany i’m not very familiar with his biography, but the things that he says, well, at least... think about it, start to understand the details, he says things that are simply unrealizable, or simply irresponsible, on this not very optimistic note, although it is possible to cope with this, we’ll go to advertising, we’ll be back in just a few minutes, and general, i’ll turn to you again, asking you to give a brief assessment.

in our weapons, chicks make up destructive fakes, it’s not for nothing that americans consider our system to be the coolest too non-nuclear weapons, they include propaganda in order to neutralize those types of weapons that are most feared in the ukrainian army. antifake, premiere, tomorrow on the first. rum, castro, product of stellor group. decorating clothes with flowers, overloading them with all sorts of details does not mean creating fashion, but making a dress based on just one line is already a real art. my fashion philosophy is to be yourself, try not

to follow trends. i never expect anything from anyone, most likely it is they who expect it something from me. the art of a couturier is akin to the art of an artist. the future of my craft is connected to the spiritual side of things. people no longer want to serve as clothes hangers. if there is a difference between a male fashion designer and a female fashion designer. only you can judge this, fashion is a game where anything can happen to anyone, matodor, high fashion, on friday on the first thing you think about the world of fashion, perhaps this is an even more magical world than mine. there's a big game on the air, but now for several

months now we've been talking about more than just hard-fought battles in ukraine, but also about stubborn battles in gaza , of course, the dynamics there are completely different, there is an obvious military advantage there, israel has a significant military advantage, but nevertheless, it is not yet clear that israel has completely succeeded. to crush hamas, prime minister netanyahu says he will accept nothing less than the destruction of hamas. at the same time, israel is already striking not only at syria, but at the syrian armed forces; a leading iranian general has just been killed in syria; it is not entirely clear what israel is going to do in in relation to lebanon, the general situation.

they are unrealizable and netanyahu literally confirmed there yesterday, indicating not just the destruction of hamas, but the demilitarization of gas, okay, this is still possible, and then the deradicalization - of palestine, of the palestinians in general - of the resistance movement of all palestinians in general, that the palestinians must be imbued with love for for israel to start fighting terrorism together with israel, and not with israel, is generally not scientific. this is some kind of non-science fiction, because

it obviously poses a problem that even it is theoretically impossible to accomplish, moreover, with the murder of soleimani’s first deputy, who was killed by the americans several years ago, this is sulaymaniyah, he was also killed, as commander, by the islamic revolutionary guards, by the islamic revolutionary guards, but he was killed by the americans, this is during the time of president trump , and not this... they didn’t deny it and were even proud of it - now they killed the first deputy, the israelis have already killed him in syria, i’m absolutely sure it was a purposeful action, he didn’t die by accident, i’m creating this the impression that israel is simply deliberately provoking iran, iran said that it will definitely respond, they will definitely respond. on the other hand, the iranians do not want a big war with israel, well, for... a number of reasons, but still the possibility

of waging a so-called proxy war with the hands of others, with the hands of the same hezbollah, with the hands of, there are a lot of yemeni houthis, radical palestinian groups , which are financed by iran, which are supported by iran, i think that this is exactly the path iran will take, and if the houthis on the one hand and khazbala.

primitive, simple, but it is completely incomprehensible how the americans, all together, even the collective west, including, how they can fight this, if you can imagine, although i also don’t see how they can implement netanyahu’s plans, this means in essence, destroy all palestinians, just destroy them, deradicalization and demilitarization

means their extermination, exactly on a biblical scale, i can’t imagine it, but it’s easier to do than something... somehow influence the houthis in yemen, because that emen is completely independent structure , there is no centralized power there, they do not depend on anyone, on the contrary , they want to join brik, setting themselves the task of stopping movement in the red sea, this is very easy for them to do, they are already doing it now, but the answer the west has nothing simple to do, so i think there is an escalation in the middle east.

a long time ago, this is not something invented today on the occasion of some events, and we actively proved the possibility of this path, the presence of an icebreaker fleet, the possibilities of shorter communication between, say, the countries of southeast asia and the countries of western europe, all

this was said, and, by the way, no one refuses, today all these proposals are still on the table, we are still investing in this whole structure, which should support . this corridor is a transport corridor, and regardless of how this kind of event ends, interest in this corridor will increase, which is important, plus what sergei viktorovich spoke about today too, we are preparing this north-south corridor, and here we are actively cooperating with the same iran, they are very interested in this, and this is right , in fact, we are discussing this with all the caspian states, including within the framework of the eurasian economic union, as our president recently announced, thus ... our - that means, our proposal , our approach, it is of a global-historical plan, in addition to geography, it is based on many other things, and the proposal that was made by putin not this year, and not even in the previous year, about the creation of this pan-eurasian infrastructure, this is a single

integration project, but this is not the integration of political systems, but precisely infrastructure integration, which presupposes the presence of different civilizations and... and this topic is very delicate, because of course, in no case do you want to create the impression that russia will do something to make sure that these kinds of phenomena take place, take place, but if the united states and...

well, iran has such things, it’s possible, that ’s absolutely right, the war of the west with iran has no chance of ending in victory, a lot of

harm can be done, a lot can be done victims, but it is impossible to win this war, and israel, even in the medium term, i’m not even talking in the long term, acting in the same way as netanyahu acts today, is doomed as a state, nothing short of its destruction, this whole story, the complete destruction of the state. that a war to destroy israel, it can force israel to use all the means at its disposal, and it has, by all

indications, nuclear weapons, tactical, this is not scary, the united states is behind israel, but i agree with you on the main thing that that line , which is extremely dangerous, first of all for israel itself. let's go to advertising , we'll be back in just a few minutes , what the globalist puppeteers want to make this world, one of them is klaus schwab, we can already talk about introducing chips into the brain , the worthy few will survive, there is no private property as such, robotization, people are not needed, then you are simply excluded from society, why don’t you bathe, the one who would...

continues his work. his idea is a continuation of nazism, and he failed the ukrainian offensive, difficulties, which israel is experiencing, helping it,

protecting it, the united states, in its attempt to bring the palestinians to their knees, and the clash with iran, which again is very difficult for the united states to win, all this, of course, motivates russia’s opponents. russia, maybe i’m being overly optimistic here, but it seems to me that while all these were attempts with unsuitable means,

it seems to me that you are right, of course, in a military sense,

they missed something, so in my opinion, in all in these directions, in the military, in political, international , economic, especially, in my opinion , especially from the point of view of the actions of fifth columns, we need to be vigilant, we need to understand that the war of civilization will last for a long time , we need to take this very, very seriously, and we need methods, including including for our special services, the new generation, because we are dealing with attacks and challenges that

are completely new, which simply did not exist before, general. when the west now talks about some potential vulnerability in russia on the internal front, often using examples of the past, in the soviet union , in america, they talk about mothers, about sisters in the military, who want their sons, brothers to go home soon, so that they don’t die, and i see when i look at... what is happening on the internet, that clearly this segment of russian opinion has attracted special attention from the russian authorities, this is really a potential problem, or they are exaggerating their capabilities, you know, dmitry, firstly, it seems to me, well, no, it doesn’t seem, i’m absolutely sure , what are they they exaggerate, because the level of our losses is, in principle, of course, any

human life. the life of a soldier is priceless, but nevertheless, speaking in purely military terms, our level of losses is small, and moreover, the measure of social support that the state provides, of course, i say, cannot compensate for this, but nevertheless, the help that is provided to families is very significant, i remember the period of the chechen war, when the losses were very decent, moreover, the degree of this support from the state , it was very insignificant, then, well, you remember, the committee of soldiers’ mothers, and the leadership didn’t even have sons, but nevertheless they went crazy there to the highest degree, so to speak, with the highest degree of aggressiveness, but still less, now this is what i call

the strategic rear and... one of the elements of this rear is the level of public support, for example, for our special military operation, it is very significant, there is the state of industry, agriculture - one, here is the level of social support , it is significant, i repeat, and in conclusion i want to say, last week freing affairs published an article that was devoted to the possibility of using nuclear weapons, i will not retell it due to lack of time, but the conclusion is: they, the authors of this article propose to rely on the so-called elites of the russian federation and instill in these elites four points that can be avoided. humiliating defeat for russia, how to instill that responsibility after russia's defeat is not discussed, only a few senior leaders will be held accountable, that sanctions

can be lifted, that russia will be allowed to return to the community of civilized states, and reparations in favor of ukraine will be moderate and limited. 20 december ngf is the most prestigious magazine, they are not famous for their courage, so if they publish something, this is usually, how to say, an acceptable point of view, well, yes, thank you, the last question is for you, in these conditions, of course, it is very important, what the government is doing and going to do to help. servicemen and their families, i know that a lot of attention is paid to this, but you have the feeling that enough is being done, that everything is being done correctly, that some additional

efforts are needed, we are trying to respond very quickly to all requests, requests at the front in to the rear, this is without a doubt, i won’t list it now, this is a huge amount of work that is being done at the legislative level, at the executive level, we have special headquarters for this. all regions russia is assigned to support our military personnel on the front line, and those regions that are in the most vulnerable position, but i would also like to continue what you were talking about, i said, these are all these fairy tales, this is what we will do for you , this is this, this is all so that society relaxes, enters into a kind of euphoria, for example, what scares me most is, well, it doesn’t scare me, it alarms me, as the chairman of the senatorial commission for the protection of state sovereignty, this popularity. .. to come to a state of objective reality,

such political sobriety to understand that this is really a total hybrid war against our fatherland, our civilization, but this will not happen, but we still need to do fine until we achieve final victory, we don’t need to relax, no matter who said, well, let’s finish by returning to where we started, that polycentrism is a huge project, this is a fundamental reorganization of the world, and russia, it seems to me, understands when we talk about the russian leadership, about the russian elite, russian society understands that without a magic wand, all this will not happen. you probably need to understand something else, that there will be desperate resistance, that this, of course, is one of those situations when...
