to the air force of the armed forces of ukraine mykola veresen today we will talk about parallels , once not only against ukraine, there were attacks in the history of the soviet union and the russian empire, but also about other countries that we are talking about now one of which we will now talk about. so, 54 years ago, the ussr occupied czechoslovakia, and the then czechoslovakia, which sought democratization, instead received soviet tanks on the streets of their cities on the night of august 20 to august 21, 1968 , the troops of the five countries of the warsaw pact invaded czechoslovakia to suppress the prague spring

. union and its allies of poland, east germany , bulgaria and hungary invaded czechoslovakia with the aim of suppressing the democratic transformations initiated by the local party leader oleksandr dubczyk, in a few hours the country was occupied in street protests began in prague and other cities for several days in the czech republic, they tried to fight the invaders as hard as they could, threw stones , molotov cocktails with sticks and even fists, soviet soldiers used weapons, according to the estimates of czech historians, up to 130 citizens died, more than half a thousand were injured, the invasion forced the leadership of czechoslovakia to curtail the reforms of the prague spring was suppressed, the occupying soviet troops remained in the country until 1991, first president yeltsin and then putin asked the czechs and slovaks apologies for the self-incrimination, however, after 2014,

moscow's position changed dramatically, now the propaganda machine tells that there was no other way out in the ussr, the operation was allegedly almost bloodless, and the occupation did not go well, whether words were useful or not, the heads were already born at that time how old were you just very i remember well, this is how it happened. my parents were not dissident intelligentsia with a pro-government rather communist intelligentsia, but then everyone was interested and my parents' friends, also scientists, lived in prague . of socialism something like that and it was in the headquarters and it was precisely in the socialist countries that scientists worked there and i was still running under the table, so they somehow met, we went to visit, apparently my parents decided to ask and they just arrived thirsty just there on the third day and i remember we were sitting, and

since i was little, i didn't understand politics at all, but i loved me, well, tanks, these are pistols well, like all boys, and even more so 80 years ago, the war was all running and shooting, and i remember some phrases just like flash drives are what they are they left prague on the volga, as i remember now, they had a volga so fat that they had almost no fire and they told me that if they remembered that they traveled from prague to the border of the ussr, now it is the western border of ukraine and there was no gap in the tank in tanks just here. take one for yourself. take a map. look how many, what is a tank? to see about the nose

is now far from small and they are just about everything it was discussed, i don't remember the details, i'll be honest , and it's definitely an eight-year-old child. no , he won't say that i was there without dissidents. i suffered from the soviet government at the age of eight. manifestation of the so-called brezhnev doctrine, this doctrine is limited to sovereignty. that is, every socialist country has the right to develop its own people up to some red line, which is measured in the kremlin. czechoslovakia then crossed these limits by alexander the beautiful he led a person and he immediately canceled the censorship, criticism of the tsn conversation began, the youth began to play guitars, there it begins. well, it’s just like now

in kyiv and lviv. so now people live before democracy or some other regime, no, then there was such socialism with a human face, that is this dubchyk is the epitome of this phrase, that he was not against socialism, he was not, but he believed that there, for example, small business is possible, medium-sized business is not allowed to smoke there, he had a bar, you can trade in the west, you can open the border more. i don't think he was in favor of canceling exit visas at all, then there were only exit visas, only entry and exit visas, but let's say it was made easier there 100 times, for example, exchange students so that people could go to capitalist countries to see how the animals were and that's how he was spent with him a lot of conversations, june, a small town here in transcarpathia , here brezhnev came there, that means

alexander dubchyk sat there, and they agreed on something there, they talked among themselves, and dubche said, i am a communist-socialist, there is no need to do anything there. well, in as a result, what happened as a result of many, many years, a huge number of honest czechs were forced to emigrate, a huge number lost their jobs, in short, there was a lot of tragedies, i can tell you in more detail oleksandr paliy, a historian, a political scientist, he will tell us about the bad things. this is an exception, this is a case of the appearance of oleksandr dubchyk. is this a natural development, if we could say socialism in eastern european countries? well, the fact is that there were people who were patriots and communists at the same time, that is

they remained czechs, they remained slovaks . she remained cleaners, but they accepted some form of activity, this uh, communist, that is, in the final analysis, communism. it was a mass that they could not put on and take off. and in the e-e check, including and you have not yet completed such a similar situation during the solidarity movement, when valensa and the jerusalem e-e communicated and mastered each other, so it can be said that any head of the country understood that moscow leads to a dead end, to a dead end, to absolutely no prospects for the humiliation and suffering

of the people, and therefore if this person at least somehow represented the people there, czech, hungarian, polish , then, accordingly, such protests arose, or can we say that those events preceded, say, the overthrow of the communist regime by the czechs two decades later and the slovaks during the velvet revolution can be said so, of course, because the stress was very great from those events that took place during the prague spring. the stress lasted for decades. that is, everyone remembered that hungary was like that. it was the year 56, after all, it was some kind of post-war years. and somehow it passed by for europe. still, the history of czechoslovakia , it was louder, louder, probably because of that.

that new times, some new thought. all this after the caribbean crisis, after the death of stalin there, the removal of khrushchev, and so on, that is, some such perversions were more visible to the western world, and therefore they reacted to czechoslovakia much more decisively, and perhaps this history was still preserved and in the 56th year, the consequences of yalta, the consequences of the division of europe, and the voice of the west, he was not as decisive as in the case of what is famous. huge student strikes, this is the coming to the streets of a huge number of people with protests, some kind of new generation appeared in europe, in paris, we remember

huge stories related to everything in america a little later anti-war eyes against vietnam that is , it is the end of the 80s the beginning of the 70s is so common world history, we can write czechoslovakia there. is it an anti-communist history in czechoslovakia, rather than a pan-european one ? well, you know pan-european, pan-world history , including at the expense of the united states . eh was completely different, completely radically different was the essence of the tests in the west and eh in the countries of the warsaw pact, the so-called czechoslovakia , that is, the style of course has its own meaning. of course it was popular but the meaning of the protests was completely different when in the

west it is just a new generation brought up already in such a way that it is enough for the welfare of the great , it protested against its conservative parents who were brought up during the war because the pre-war times, uh, who were all the time in a hurry , so to speak as they say, they were uh well, how uh helmut kolis mentioned about his father that he could afford to drink uh a small bottle of beer once a week and that's how generations lived for decades that they couldn't do anything to themselves only some demands or the state to them and they are like a taut string existed and in europe after the war it is already completely different already the welfare plan of the marshal is the same and completely different the quality of life well in general it can be said that the times are growing very rapidly and this

is the history of the czech republic she could of course to borrow some stylistics from this there, the love of freedom, the activation of the youth, and so on, but in fact the task was solved in a radically different way away from moscow. this was a key task for this history of czechoslovakia. well, thank you let's go further, let's say thank you to oleksandr, the political scientist who helped us deal with the origins of this prague spring, yes, it really was then. well, after that, i stopped reading any dissidents, and i can only say that what mr. oleksandr mentioned, the pot, you know, got a certain opportunities if you went to budapest, soviet budapest, first of all, everyone noted the tourists. my brother was there as a tourist, that there is only one monument to lenin, and the

shops sell a lot of western european goods, cigarettes, jeans, that is when hungary tried to leave first, it was much bloodier there, many soviet troops were being fought there, they were simply killed . this was not the case here, then if they decided that if you were to ban everything, i, the leader of the future communist party, traded our cadre from brezhnev to andropov. by the way andropov, the head of the kgb , was in hungary at the time and he was extorting that we should give him a little more opportunities and then well, how about you, it will be a little easier, well, that’s firewood very much later. well, yes, and well, if you gave him cigarettes so that he calmed down. if you are going to give terrible soviet rome and pants for 2.50 each, it

will explode sooner or later, by the way, then he took on the armed day in the modern chinese what he did the day of this, he just said let the youth develop, let there be a capitalist, let them they travel around the world, let me go to the american university, let them receive 2-3 thousand dollars each, they don't take to the streets, and they will accumulate money there to live well. er, it was just hungary, well, in the sense of material well- being, because its romania was freer, but there was nothing to eat there, and everything was beautiful here, and so on, they were aimed at economic benefits, and er, only democratic ways, that’s what it looks like. yes, but in the hungarians simply. it's just a consequence of stalin's death for them. stalin died on the 20th of sparta. it was the

debunking of stalin himself and the struggle inside hungary was actually a struggle against inter-stalinists and milder stalinists. i won't say that because in the czech republic there there was a struggle between communists and national communists and they really were so romantic, we are not against socialism, but there in hungary we are against us, they took up arms there, battles were fought there, the soviet troops were burned down there, they simply burned them, and only there with enormous efforts, thanks to the army, they somehow we won there, everything was on the limit in the czech republic. thank you, it was no longer 500,000 and half a million. just now, andriy, we were talking with him, our editor. he says that now the russians have sent 200,000, even less, and then 500,000 troops from all five states to czechoslovakia

sides drove by and it was an undeniably terrible story . well, what are we going to talk about? we will have a conversation with volodymyr shiyko, the general director of the ukrainian institute at the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine, an expert in cultural diplomacy. i will just have time to give the background of this story to our viewers so that they understand the essence of this conversation . arsenal mutual art institute and the ukrainian penn club call on the cabinet of ministers of ukraine to cancel the order to the state cinema on the reorganization of the dovzhenko center they see in this the government's intention to liquidate the institution that has been engaged in the preservation, research and popularization of ukrainian cinema since 1994. the daughter declares that it is only about the separation of the ukrainian animation studio and the cinema archive with the preservation of the institution's function of developing the museum business of film culture and organizing thematic events ministry
