w. thank you. thank you working together. we will begin the urgent task of rebuilding our nation and renewing the american dream i now am of the 9th 2016 and donald trump had just been enacted as the new president of the united states and every clinton the favorite at last she graduated last spout us i don't think 3. in moscow the election result was also being celebrated. pseudo assume that you we are pleased that the best candidate is one but you let grandma hillary have a rest bob was speculated. let's.

see nashville we were battled well look at it in the state duma nationalist flood damage there enough ski holiday special reception to celebrate trump's victory. as well for if there were reports of people popping champagne corks at the time like little going i don't know anyone personally but i heard about it well a lot of grandeur is part of the russian national character. without a man putin was one of the fast to congratulate the surprise winner donald trump. no i see russia wants to completely restore its relationship with the usa. the fact that trump was focusing on the slogan make america great again but he wanted to promote his own country rather than pushing for globalization which was

good news for us russians and i said that he approves chim chim enough that you need an address here and he approves. president putin and president trump shook hands on a new friendship about the 1st 2 years of trump's presidency but overshadowed by the so-called russian a fact the charge was conspiracy against the united states did the 2 men illegally collude i never worked for roger and you know that answer better than anybody i never worked for russia. there was signs of male bonding every time the 2 presidents matt found could a true partnership ever really develop. could these men really become friends or what mistakes destined to remain enemies. like there's nothing at all. you.

know you're on the. ballot morning of bread or. my hand. but i never work. we're. back to 2016. in the run up to the u.s. presidential elections russia's state media backed the republican candidate donald trump a man known for his affinity towards russia would have a great relationship with putin and russia. political tensions between russia and the u.s. had been rising amounting even to talk of a new cold war. of those still the politics of u.s. democrats and president obama and steer the russian american relationship down

a blind alley to be the democrats' new presidential candidate was putin's arch enemy hillary clinton. they also argue opposed to the kiddo. no she even compared him with hitler quite blatantly she said he was just like hitler so it was obvious they were lation would be difficult if she became president. moscow pinned all its hopes on donald trump to revive the relationship between the 2 nations. drawn into swaim subversion trump expressed himself quite differently he said he would find a common language with putin very doable that was possible to work together with putin shores which in the end that's exactly what he was planning to do. donald trump and florida may putin to man with 2 common enemies hillary clinton and barack obama. despite having different reasons trump and putin both share the

feeling of being disparaged by the outgoing u.s. president and the american establishment. i think that from haitians perspective donald trump was a better prospect to leave the usa than hillary clinton was a slow what are most. new adama's position and had tried to outperform him several times in world politics without success. she was clearly an r r y when you inching. buttons mistrust of the u.s. its president and its allies was deep rooted. for the after the collapse of the soviet union putin had experienced what western betrayal actually meant the expansion of nato into formally communist eastern europe you know at the abortion should 1st poland joined then it was the czech republic and

hungary then it went on and on and on it is now in the baltic states lithuania latvia estonia are all members of nato too they share borders with russia. which basis should putin or anyone else trust a word the west says i don't know for example the strategy on usenet. even with president obama relations did not improve. was rattled by obama's advocacy of regime change in the arab world. he moved to the missiles while this issue shifts the. always had the feeling that things were moving in the wrong direction that nothing was going the way it should . be the key change was the arab spring there was that will. leave year the situation in libya was dramatic and then get our faith the head of state was murdered live on camera but what came out over the years that seen most of it putin

really hard to see live cheaply and which in the least that. trumps dislike of obama on the other hand was personal not political. 2011 was a trial run for trump he launched his own unofficial election campaign aiming to run as the republican candidate in the 2012 presidential election challenging obama let me tell you. he doesn't like donald trump and the last guy in the world that he wants to run against is donald. trump rekindled an old rumor about obama claiming that his true birthplace was kenya and that the president was therefore not eligible for office trump was not i think on anybody's radar other than as a bit of a lark right in this in this back and forth and in again as with so many things about trump you don't take it seriously at 1st because it's just seems so

outlandish and bizarre. obama finally published his birth certificate in april 20th at the traditional correspondents' dinner in washington the president hit back no one is that no one is prouder. to put this birth certificate matter to less than the donald. and that's because they can get back to focusing on the issues that matter. why. did we fake the moon landing. the slap in the face that donald trump wouldn't quickly forget is showpiece had backfired. 2 weeks later he withdrew his presidential candidacy. but trump declared that he would still win at the next election. to arrogant to be true. trump sought his revenge

on obama. and he was not the only one in russia putin too was waiting for the moment to take revenge on his american counterpart but 1st he had to win an election himself. yet in the run up to the elections of march 2012 moscow became the epicenter of an unprecedented wave of demonstrations against the government. just much of his post your bottom line is we would have kept out of party protests began after the parliamentary elections in early december 27th in the country here she wrecked. each year what happened where next was what happens elsewhere when citizens realize there's that some not being heard correctly they go out on the streets stand up and

start hootin blamed hillary clinton for giving the signal for the protests. a lot of women. at the same time she was secretary of state with the u.s. state department provided funding for russian n.g.o.s to observe the elections to putin this was direct interference in his regime. hillary clinton wanted to topple him and organize a revolution in russia so i see a. lot interest. i did to smash the opposition and accused the u.s. of threatening russia and its traditional values. not something of a result of him 2012 i warned my friends from the liberal camps to prepare for the inevitable by the sort of guys they would have to take sides either us i mean russia or the west it is up to.

everyone who has said yes to a strong russia. but i feel. takes paid off he was the clear winner of the presidential elections with 64 percent of the votes. in has shown that his politics are geared towards traditional values and family loyalty to the people and service to the fatherland. symbolists these values have always been typical of the russian service class as it used to be called. loser because it

was over the rule november 2012 presidential bamma was also elected his 2nd time the gap. we have fought always bet and we know it all hurts but for the united states of america the best is yet to come. russia however was not very high on obama's agenda. there's no big economic relationship there is no big need at the moment for focusing on the nuclear weapons or nonproliferation the trees weren't coming up right at that point so for obama it was a focus completely on other issues on the middle east on terrorism and domestic affairs . russia was it was really an afterthought.

but one u.s. citizen was fine for putin is attention donald trump has on his 2013 he had recognized that russia was also a land of unlimited opportunities. as the owner of the rights to miss universe trump had voted to hold the beauty pageant in moscow. launched a charm offensive on twitter. being his new best friend. he was certain that would attend the contest. in november 23rd team trump arrives in moscow flanked by beauty queens and moscow's a city that does glitz really well and trump as we know is a guy who likes a lot of flash the more. gleams gold the more exciting it is to have. it's an amazing location and moscow all of russia is going wild over it so we're very happy

the miss universe pageant is just setting records. for russian billionaire. was hosting the event trump had met him just 5 months previously in las vegas. mikhail fight off editor in chief of g q russian magazine at the time was approached by us uk a lot off to write a cover story. here refused. my compromise was that we're not going to write anything about you know slow horror but like i will come and like i'll hang out at the opening party for the pageant and they. will get photographed for you know for the society pages. in spite of all aguilar offs efforts to persuade putin to attend the beauty pageant the russian president didn't turn up. trumps trip to russia later fueled

allegations that moscow had recruited him as an agent engineered by host aguilar of a man with close contacts in the kremlin. if i knew. this. idiotic event would somehow become kind of the crux the focal point of the 21st century biggest conspiracy theory i would probably pay closer attention and try to hang out with trump and their goal or of but i really doubt honestly that this is when the plot was hatched. jerningham stay in moscow trump continued his offensive against obama for russia all over the world people are laughing at us they're ripping us off i mean we're you look at what's going on in russia in moscow you

look at how it's just booming and how well it does and they have the olympics and as you know we tried to get the olympics and came in 4th place you know figure that one out 4th place. yet putin ignored as advances and slid notice she didn't know tom for the start of the average russian not the trump was a money magnetic little young man with a trophy wife who she was to bill towers all over the world. no more than that. he was a businessman one of many of the pros to business i don't think putin perceived him any differently at this point which incremental to cause them all. but giving up was not an option for donald trump he was determined to find a way to get rutins attention but the russian president had more important plans he wanted to get his country back on the weald stage fast and he could see a way to do it. in early 2014 the

ukrainian peninsula of crimea became the center of the most serious east west crisis since the end of the cold war on the 22nd of february victor gena coverage to moscow lowell president of ukraine was ousted from office and realized he had to take action the islamist move on which you. president since he couldn't help president young a college to stay in power ukraine had to be punished that you know said he wanted to show that a people's revolution could only worsen a country situation it was also a clear warning to his own country the achievement premium got i see it. to change hers empire borders on ukraine wants to prevent ukraine moving closer to europe. the strand. we took as a. europe is going to say if this state joined the west and became a member of the e.u.

and nato 1st of all it meant that nato troops would be stationed all along this long border. furthermore it was obvious that of crimea belong to ukraine it was no longer russia's most important naval base. they say instead we could have the american 6th fleet for example coming to the vast. flow to the. putin called a midnight meeting and decided that crimea should once again belong to russia. you know people it was such a lympics was still going on or they had just ended the world was distracted and so russia clearly had plans on the books to take back and they didn't invent them it was an impulsive move if you like. moscow acted quickly just 3 weeks after the ukrainian president's overthrow crimea declared its independence. the annexation of the strategic black sea peninsula quickly followed sunday's hastily

called referendum in which its residents overwhelmingly backed breaking from ukraine and joining russia. was sears acutest i would like to congratulate all the citizens of russia crimea and sebastopol on this significant event here the shelia soviet sometimes for americans i try to explain that it would be as if by an accident of history the us lost part of south florida but not just south florida orlando disney and if by chance the opportunity arose for a president to grab it back what would people say that it was a violation of international law or disney as ours and that's what you hear in russia the cry goes up cream crimea is ours. the united states and the european union reacted by imposing economic sanctions on russia. sanctions have arrived as the new way of conflict between countries

because it's perceived as being inexpensive it's something that's politically satisfying there's an entire class of new sanctions experts and they offer their services so the sovereign and the congress and the president they're all very interested in having these services. at the nucleus security summit in the hague in march 24th teen barrack obama attacked the russian president again. russia is a regional power that is threatening some of its immediate neighbors. not on the strength but out of weakness. obama's derision only served to encourage burton to advance further into ukraine. tensions rose in april as fighting erupted between pro russian and pro-government forces in the east

ukrainian donbass region. puts him you're asked for has said it's so many times you russia and ukraine are one nation they belong together and you know one people one empire or one leader. russian policy on ukraine is viewed as very fundamental to russian national identity when you hear russians officials we media ordinary people talking all the time about my ukrainian grandmother my summers in ukraine ukraine is my last or my right arm whatever so deep feeling of closeness to ukraine as if he also understood what ukraine meant to russia donald trump chipped in. russia is like i mean they're really hot stuff. and now you have people in the

ukraine who know set up or not but it can all be said but russia i mean what he's done for russia is really amazing. trumps praise for putin fell on deaf ears. bleached the ground but. it's the clean you feel for trump ran for the presidency no one saw him as particularly influential let alone as a person to watch out for politically need to make up the rules the rules needed. as a penalty for the ongoing fighting in ukraine the u.s. and europe impose new sanctions on the russian finance energy and defense sectors in september 24th team. put in retaliated for him the u.s. was the real troublemaker. mostly because richardson is the knowledge that of brooke and you might think the united states special position and leadership was

really a blessing for us all that well let me tell you this was not the case is go instead of solving conflicts it led to the escalation and the spread of chaos instead of democracy support for julius groups was growing from neo fascists to radical islamists used to critique of. provocation from moscow was nothing new for the west. to fully implement he said after an x. in the crimea and the events in east ukraine russia wasn't totals diplomatic isolation putin was virtually ignored at the g 20 meeting in australia when you look like you he left it early. needed a new front to demonstrate russian strength he found it in syria russia has always had strong relations with the syrian government sold weapons to the syrian

government over many years often on credit and after a while that credit would magically be forgiven. for the civil war in syria had been raging for 5 years in its fight against the insurgents president bashar al assad's army had laid waste to entice it is. amid the chaos the so-called islamic state that seized control of great swathes of eastern syria. putin did not want to see another arab dictator toppled he decided to intervene. save the bus for us with a thought probably a minute by which flash are all assad it wasn't about supporting him personally siddique of the cause the problem was keeping the syrian state going. what is u.s. and european intervention in other states internal affairs ever achieved e.u.

battle with this excuse of teaching you about democracy in your way of life and we've been used to when democrats you know which moves each bribe you know. only chaos and collapse when. you're asked by the maker of this with us is applies to afghanistan iraq and libya you know it that's aids and now in syria russia was saying stuff like that that's enough that stuff which. on the 30th of september 2015 russia launched its ass strikes officially they were targeting islamic terror militia. bruton's american champion gave it his full backing on american television trump indorsed putin's intervention in syria and said no one should get in russia's way against the islamic state. yet trump was alone with his message of support the u.s.

and its allies demanded that the russian ass trikes stop their missiles while also hitting innocent people with the russians when we wage war because that's and when we wage war we want to win and we do when they say that even if only 15 or 20 percent of our bombs hit their targets that they still and they're targets of. russian military support change the situation in syria dramatically in favor of the assad regime. the international community could no longer ignore putin's moves the solution to the primaries he needed a breakthrough an opportunity to return to the world stage he wanted to regain his place at the table with the other players mistresses of him as the new russian intervention in syria was his ticket was able to keep the cumulative they went in there they started the bombing campaign and they really forced the u.s.

to talk to them and ever since then you know they're rare russian and american military simply engaged in de confliction talks on a daily basis. at the same time donald trump was eyeing the u.s. presidency once again. he had already launched his selection campaign in june 25th dean. i am a station we are. for president of the united states thank you we are going to make our country great again could someone who. at this time trump was already leading the race for the republican candidacy minot's that is what people were starting to take him seriously. so of course they also started following his comments about russia not sure that this needs.

trump's attempts to curry favor with the russian president finally paid off in december 25th 2000 mentioned donald trump in public for the 1st time. he's a very striking in no doubt very talented man he appears to be the great favorite in the presidential contest. trump was happy to accept the price. he came out of nowhere 2 days ago they said trump is brilliant he's great he's the leader he's the leader on the party and he said nice things i didn't know i've never met him so i didn't know and he said nice things all of a sudden i'm hearing things like oh isn't it terrible that the saying that it's not terrible that's good just like a good thing not a bad thing he can't stand obama * obama can't stand him they're always fighting wouldn't it be nice if we could get along like with. just what begins

in late 2015 it was the sort of mutual flirtation if not a love affair with. trump having praised putin and putin now seeing the possibility that trump could play in this election and praising trump and somebody who could be presidential bush now but i showed you this something i find important and can only approval. i see nothing wrong with it on the contrary mr trump said he would be willing to restore russian american relations he's good what's bad about last week we all want bast few them but you don't you. from the russian perspective it was clear whom to support in the election which in the star wars putin spoke favorably but also quite carefully about tropical that. he said it was good but didn't say he thought trump was great or anything like that he was much more reserved. on the 22nd of july

2015 became the official republican presidential candidate i ask for your support to not so that i can be your champion in the white house and i will be your champion. nobody knows the system better than me. which is why i am the one can fix it. from presented himself as putin's western kindred spirit swimmer was for most but that would do to his character and his upbringing which and for which he didn't just like putin as a politician. but also as a person with a personality similar to his own with strength trust consistency and enormous resilience it go aside as a just bush just like trump himself the course on from. a few days later trump

appeared before the press the question came up again would he recognize crimea as russian territory when he became president. lift the sanctions what we're looking at. his comments contradicted both the u.s. government and nato policy both wanted to keep sanctions in place until russia. returned crimea to ukraine. but trump saw nato chief as a competitor to the u.s. . trump regions to test enormous skepticism and doubt on the nato alliance his point being that nato like everything else he's ever done should be transactional how much the united states is paying versus how much other allies are contributing should be the determining factor rather than the idea of collective security that's been the bedrock of the alliance since its founding.

that i'm things i'm saying he's the boss of good it not trump is an isolationist he says nato is sucking away american resources he believes this yet he understands nothing about foreign policy nor does he wish to my cause and i'm sure that from vladimir point putin's point of view this is music to his ears. in july 26th seen hillary clinton made us history as the 1st female presidential candidate of a major party. and so well my friends it is with humility determination and was confidence in america's promise that i would say that was. in the same month she accused russia of interfering in the presidential elections russian hackers threat managed to have stolen and published e-mails from the democratic national

committee that aim was to sow seeds of discord in her party to benefit donald trump did the stunts the. that share in 2016 person set out to create chaos in the united states signals to so he could say to the russians at home that was the letter is this this democracy is a complete mess what's up with what he took the democrats plus. trump was very enthusiastic he encouraged them because to find even. if russia or china or any other country has those e-mails i mean to be honest with you i'd love to see in russia if you're listening i hope you're able to find the 30000 e-mails that are missing. tonight of all the accusations and said russia had not interfered with the us

elections and that the scandal surrounding the alleged stolen e-mails was fake. people it's a secure israel knew. there was the will and given the most important thing was the content which the public now knows about but me yeah that's the only thing that matters not who stole it we've come to it is do you know what the media consumption but i always say to americans do you actually realize that we totally control the us right here with our hackers control everything but it's about the choice of course that's what other nonsense you know group or my point of view the most stupid thing is they use this excuse to oppose trump's domestic policies. you see that the earth was on november the 9th 2016 something that very few people had thought possible happen to. carry clinton lost the presidential

election this is nothing outcome we wanted we worked so hard for and i'm sorry that we did not win this election for the values we share in the vision leave all for. for our country. a historic election night was the winner was damo trump. i pledge to every citizen. that i will be president for all americans and this is so important to me. was there was applause from moscow today. so this is not only the victory for the americans who defended their democracy against the liberal lovers lives you know this is this is the victory that american people brought the whole world the reality is that a great number of russians felt vindicated they felt that something right had

happened now justice will be done and russia's grievances will be respected by a new american president. or it was shot the cue on style at the end of the day trump stands for protectionism in the economy and for greater u.s. sovereignty he doesn't want any migrants in the country for instance to go on to his way of thinking it was much closer to putin this new future. so was the outgoing president barack obama now history not quite he still had one card to play. in december his government expelled 35 russian citizens in retaliation for moscow's alleged interference is in the actions bought there was no reaction from putin yet. i mean you know we only react when we can benefit obama's presidency was more or less over why should we have wasted our political

capital i think was even in 2014 or 2015 you can no longer do a lot of those because all put in signal that moscow was waiting for the arrival of president trump in the white house and was solved. the problems with them also putin didn't want to start their relationship with president trump off on this sour note and instead to send trump this positive message trump responded and said put was very smart in in not retaliating but. even defended the newly elected president even giving a surprising answer to questions about rumors that russia had compromising material on trump including images with prostitutes during his visit to moscow in 2013. if anything the result of fish which i can hardly imagine that he went into a hotel to meet girls with

a sense of social responsibility that. even if they are of course the best in the world. people who fake pictures of the kinds now circulating of the elected us president to use them in a political battle are worse than prostitutes. and you they have absolutely no moral standards. really for the issue. on january the 20th 2017 trunk was sworn in for me as the 45th president of the united states of america. on trial do solemnly swear that i will faithfully execute that i will faithfully execute the office of president of the united states the office of president of the united states so help me god so help me god congratulations with the crowd.

with the relationship with moscow now be rebooted. my dears the. team was entertaining the hope that he could create a different kind of relationship with the usa to the previous one which could be used which meant gradually rebuilding the world to fit his own rules and turning russia back into a superpower trump would make a deal on how the rest of the world would live as the middle. moscow's hopes of a fresh beginning with washington was soon dodged. past of all by nikki haley trump's new ambassador to the united nations. paley's 1st appearance in february 27th teen marked a tougher stance i consider it unfortunate that the occasion of my 1st appearance here is one in which i must condemn the aggressive actions of russia the dire

situation in eastern ukraine is one that demands clear and strong condemnation of russian actions. contrary to all of trump's previous comments ambassador haley confirmed that u.s. sanctions would remain in place until russia withdrew from crimea. the u.s. . the government's anti russian tack continued. in march f.b.i. director james comey confirmed that his agency would conduct an official investigation into the russian government's alleged interference in the 2016 u.s. election campaign. and that includes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the trump campaign and the russian government and whether there was

any coordination between the campaign and russia's efforts. in april un ambassador haley once again condemned russia's complicity with the syrian assad regime this time citing a poison gas attack yesterday morning. we awoke to pictures to children foaming at the now suffering convulsions being carried in the arms of desperate teams. the truth is that assad russia and iran have no interest in peace when the united nations consistently fails in its duty to act collectively there are times in the life of states that we are compelled to take our own action. thanks guys 3 days later u.s.

missiles hit the syrian military apple watch where the poison gas attack was and magically carried out. 8000000 tons of flowers dumped into the judges and indian everything the pesticides contaminated. now a start of converts use flowers into charcoal and chemical free incense sticks. or some of the old pesticides from getting into the will. be cooking.
