left a certain legacy in ukraine, a legacy also of institutions, in particular, a legacy of some kind of legislation that we have been getting rid of for a very, very long time . in our labor code, it is certainly not the same as it was there in 1991 or 1990, but it is still well, there are 50 of some years. well, this is also a question, and so are all those institutions, the very system of building the country. that is, all this remains the legacy of the soviet union. i am talking about the fact that we did not receive anything good from the soviet union. the future contours of the oligarchic industrial system and so on. that is, okay, it was a dream. well, they burned it, if something was such a good legacy of the soviet union. it was definitely a dream. this plane is big, but it’s gone and it’s long past time to dream about something else, about some planes that will be of our production. there, together with a certain reindeer, and

so on, why does the russian newspaper turn out like that, they will come there and spoil everything everywhere, and ivan uz, the chief consultant of the institute of strategic studies, candidates of economic sciences, mr. ivan dobrogo you somehow started the morning from kaliningrad, you see , we came to the conclusion that russia will not come. it spoils everything there, now it spoils. she came to us, but she also ruined her own life. good morning, studio . good morning, our viewers. i immediately want to say about kaliningrad in a different way. it is now called kralovets, they started calling this place because they remembered that this place was founded in 1255 by a czech king, therefore, who has certain claims to this territory, i.e. if before we thought that it was at all, then the königsbergs, germany, then poland she said that it is her territory. and now the czech republic is also coming out faster. so we still have to figure out who he will go to in the end, and even if he does go there,

they will have to rebuild , redo, repair and restore so much, because the russians simply buried that kaliningrad region during the years of their e unfortunately, the use of these lands means that there is a lot of work to be done and that it will really have to be rebuilt, but so that it is only our dream and does not have the flavor of the past, look, today is my birthday putin, but putin decided not to celebrate him, they say that there is no celebration because of the war. well, the russians are tightening their belts because they say that there is less and less money. finally, this effect of sanctions has begun to work so fully, well, it is a cumulative effect, in fact, sanctions began to

work first, in fact, their application, that is, if we go back to the end of february, the beginning of march, and then there were a lot of statements that certain chains of coffee shops, for example, in moscow, they are forced to review their prices and every week, that is, they understand that due to fluctuations in the exchange rate of the ruble, they can not be sure that the ends at which it was set they are probably a period, and they said that this is our period of our thinking, this is a week . due to the rather qualified head of their central bank, mrs. elvera nabiulino, but she is also, let's put it this way, the wizard of the emerald city, that's why the problem really began to accumulate, and already in april, the first report of the center of the russian federation, he noted that these problems are a

recent report of the central bank of the russian federation, it was in september, if i'm not mistaken , somewhere on the 17th, it came out in september, and there were also interesting figures, for example, about the fact that base inflation is almost 20% in russia then it means that they cannot reorient their exports from europe to asia, that is, russia has always said that now we are rebuilding our economy, so europe has turned its back on us, but we already have china, we have india , we will supply everything there, but the central bank it's so easy for russia it won't work well, in the end, there was such an interesting phrase in this report that the difference between the ruble exchange rate and the real effective mobile exchange rate is almost 50%. traditionally, the difference is very small, there is 5-7%, but now the realities of the russian economy are such that there is really no particular faith in their currency, formally it has strengthened, but it has

strengthened not because russia has started to work well economically, but simply because imports have stopped, which is important for that is, on the one hand, the ruble was sent from the other side when you did not you have an import that is important to you. then your production, which is built on the same igor, is starting to stop, and that is why when in may the production of cars in russia decreased by 90 7%, that is, it actually stopped, it was completely due to the simple fact that the economy is beginning to be taken away and now that the last quarter of this year has already begun and all the accumulated problems have been added to, a problem related to mobilization has arisen. and it has given rise to another problem because citizens of working age, as a rule, men leave the country, that is, there are figures, almost half a million russians have already left the country, and these are the people who created the gdp, so the economy of russia is really like this now. if before

there were problems that, let's say, they were allowed to solve these problems that started from this quarter, from october 1, i am not sure that they they will succeed, but by the way, we live here and do not pay attention to what is happening there in russia, and yesterday there literally ended a powerful economic forum, which was chaired by the prime minister of russia, such a mishmash, and in particular there he said that the sanctions that have been applied against russia have an unprecedented scale and number that exceeds anything that has ever been introduced in relation to any other state, according to the words, big sanctions for great russia, well, he said that we need help, actually called on the forum participants to help well and since there were serious participants there, a representative of iran came, a representative of the uzbek state came, and there was a

representative of turkmenistan, then in principle i see that there are some alternatives for the russian federation for in order to compensate for the losses of the sanctions that the countries listed by you make up at least one percent of the world gdp, that is, to the point that those countries that still have good relations with russia, their economic weight is not so significant, unlike the european union on unlike the united states of america, unlike china, india, which by the way, russia also considered india as an alternative to the usa and the eu. and now we see that india is already saying through the mouth of its prime minister, modi, that now for the time before the war, in fact, such is russia that you know, you are doing something wrong, and china supposedly maintains the so-called pro-russian neutrality

, but this does not mean that china supports russia, therefore, in fact, and especially now, by the way, when there are many countries, including india, china, and turkey, they all directly said that these are fake referendums that russia has conducted that they are undermining the possibility of establishing peace. therefore, they do not support them and we will see that none. well, rather, turkey immediately declared that there will be no recognition, as they did not recognize the referendum in crimea and other referendums china and india are also in no hurry to recognize those referendums, and by the way, iran also does not recognize the referendum. i think that's why russia is really left more and more alone. if earlier it lost the west, now it is even losing the east little by little, and i mean china, india, other countries, that is, that who is still cooperating with it, and unfortunately for us, we see iranian thrones in the sky above ukraine, but we see that , first of all, iran does not officially recognize this, that is, they are not

ready to open and support radios, which means that russia may really soon find itself carried out alone, when even lukashenka can throw her uh, ivan, you know what i want to ask you, when did the full-scale invasion begin, then some uh, the first sanctions, the first restrictions, ah, we saw a lot of all kinds of videos from tik tok or on instagram , russian instavids wrote this about what and how they will close instagram, how will i live or something else , or there were people crying that there would be no mcdonald's or queues we saw these videos with queues at ikea or we saw fights over sugar in supermarkets empty shelves and now we don't seeing this video, it simply means that the russians are used to the situation they have or they are so scared. so why why don't we see

these beautiful excerpts from their everyday life ? you know there are several reasons, first of all it is that the russian federation controls the information space because even returning to mobilization again, when we saw this footage at the border , many people began to say that if russia broadcasts footage of russians leaving its country, it would undermine trust in the authorities in general to the whole country, that's why they really began to implement a strict information policy, it earned all the time. that is, in general, the probing of the population of russia and the consequences of which we are observing. now it is built on the fact that it is necessary to strictly control the information space, therefore they really do everything possible so that such videos do not appear does not mean that the economy of russia unexpectedly began to work well, everything appeared on the floor, there is no shortage everything is fine but if everything was fine, then firstly, people did not flee from russia, and secondly, russia

i would constantly ask him to remove these sanctions because russia has such an interesting policy throughout this period when, on the one hand, they say that sanctions do not harm them in any way and everything is fine, on the other hand, on the other hand , they try to remove sanctions for any reason and these constant statements by certain representatives of russia that let's negotiate why mrs. matvienko said the same is based on their hope that the beginning of some negotiations between russia and ukraine will lead to the lifting of sanctions, even though certain countries there, the united states and great britain said that it will not be an excuse to remove the sanctions from you, that is, do not hope, nevertheless , russia has such a big real dream that you have. if these negotiations begin, then all the sanctions will be removed, but it seems that no one will remove them yet. even this is another hope of russia, which now begins already in the autumn-winter period, that is, the

countries of europe will be forced to agree with russia on the dependence on the supply of hydrogen. sources if it is interesting that they found them, that is, for some reason they did not even think about it until february 24 and said that it was impossible, and when they say something about a scepter, they immediately remembered that it is possible to negotiate with the countries of the persian gulf or the gulf, as they say in to this region, from countries with algeria, from nigeria, from norway, you can also get gas from the united states, get liquefied gas, that is, now i have the impression that if this winter goes well for europe and everything goes well, then there will be no special dependence on russia at all, and a lot sanctions that are still not being introduced because of this fear that something will happen to us if we do it, it will simply disappear and then there will be restrictions on gas and

oil and in general any trade, well, it looks like this, to metaphorically write it down if putin climbed on e the branch that i started sawing so that the birds sitting on it also fell with it and crashed. well, somehow it doesn’t go there, yes, look, it’s an interesting thing, uh, i read that russia urgently provides more than a billion dollars in tranche of aid e for lukashenko for the belarusian regime and this also coincided with lukashenka's statement, more precisely with his speech where he said that he ordered to freeze the rise in prices for absolutely all products in the country, that is, now no one has the right to raise the prices of anything, even toilet paper. this is the story of belarusians today, what is happening there, and i understand that all of them are not simply because the economy of belarus is like this

blayd galya let's say it is completely dependent on russia and now these statements by mr. lukashenko that he will freeze prices, you know, there is such a good experience in the soviet union, when why did the deficit appear ? you can say that we are all freezing the prices, freezing the prices instead of the prices not rising, the loss received simple shelves, now belarus may really be faced with these risks of these simple shelves, and she does not have many chances for the future, although on the other hand, you know certain analysts say that belarus will be the best of all in this story. why because it will not be affected by military actions and when the government changes, we understand that if it ends as it should, ukraine will be gone, not only putin will be gone and lukashenko, that is, there will be a different regime, and this regime will most likely be about paul, by the way, it was the first years of independence, when many people said that

belarus is much more about europe than even ukraine, because after all, catholicism is more developed there than in ukraine, that is religious factor and therefore this country will somehow be able to better adapt to europe, but in 1994, lukashenko won after that. this country, as they say, the 90s may have gone . x actually with president lukashenka and they, on the one hand, they managed to get certain things in the economy, on the other hand , they got these things precisely at the expense of support from russia, and now you know, despite the loud statements that russia will now give another tranche, russia will help , i am not sure that russia is already enough resources to help his colleague, who, by the way, wants to give his territory to ata ukraine, but we see that there is all the talk about belarus joining

the war, they have been here for almost eight months, they have not called us anything. why, because there is also lukashenko understands very well that this will be an acceleration of his end, we will if yes yes stand-up -n-force agency they assume that up to 15 percent may fall against the background of sanctions, e-e, the economy of belarus has other, more positive, truth for them forecasts, but they have entered a very high inflation and their prices are rising by 10-15% per month, this is exactly what forced lukashenka to resort to some venezuelan methods, thank you very much for these explanations, ivan uz was with us, the chief consultant of the institute of static studies, candidates of economic of science well, we have belarus recently wrote a post about the characteristics of life in belarus, about the fact that she fell ill with lyme berlioz and needed to

buy an antibiotic, which she could not find in the pharmacies in minsk. she dug through everything. well, then somehow someone she knew helped her there, but it turned out that i did not find it because this antibiotic is imported to belarus, they stopped importing it, and belarus does not produce its own because there is no ingredient for this antibiotic, such is life in countries that give their land and take part in the war. and why did they need it there in the soviet union, too, no, they didn't treat it with penicillin, and then there were five more pyramidols from the greens, everything and mustard seeds on the heels, and in principle, everything and everything went like this, like a stand or or like a lie down and don't get up. well, it's one thing already in the soviet union, they just didn't see an alternative. still, it was medicine, people lived for 50-60 years, it lasts for life. it was

great, it didn't take long, you didn't have to pay a pension for a long time, it was useful for the state, well then it's nothing, everything returns to russia as they wanted everything will be very, very good, yes, contact us at serhiy stetsenko, correspondent of radio freedom, mr. serhiy. good morning. you are currently in prague, czech republic. so, where is it happening ? have gathered for this summit , they are actually thinking about how to push russia out a little bit, so to speak, right, yes, oleg vitai, this is the first such summit in the format, it is called the european european political community, and today is indeed the second day of this 44 countries are not only leaders

the president and the prime minister of the member states of the european union are also invited leaders, in particular, among them is ukraine and ukraine is represented by prime minister denys shmonal well, among the main topics that were discussed all day yesterday, in addition to energy, in essence, the heating of europe this winter , of course, the question about ukraine was also raised at the final press conference yesterday by emmanuel macron , who directly initiated the creation of this new format. i should note that he himself said that it is not a substitute for the european union it's just more of a format to which you can attract countries that are not yet in the european union but have, for example , the intention to get there as well. semal macron, e-e, at the final press conference yesterday late at night said that the european union and the countries, which are the leaders of the countries that came to prague, they will not stop to support ukraine and the aid will

continue, so what about the aid, he did not name the exact details. what will be the amount of new aid from the european union, but he noted that the french artillery systems caesar will be included in this aid. and today we expect there are more detailed details about the new aid to ukraine, and also about support for ukraine . the president of moldova, sanda, also spoke here. moldova will host another informal one next year. she also said that europe is united in not recognizing what happened recently . the annexation of the new occupied and previously occupied territories of ukraine to russia, and it appeared that the european union and she personally absolutely do not consider this to be legitimate and will continue to put pressure on russia in and on any other platforms where they will meet with their colleagues. well, the

ukrainian representatives who came here, in particular, this is this, in particular, this is the deputy prime minister for european and euro-atlantic integration said that ukraine also submitted its proposals regarding the format of this summit, i-e noted that, most likely, negotiations on ukraine's accession to the eu can start next year. well, as for internal european issues, of course, one of the most important is the energy issue, in simple words, it's how europe will be to heat oneself without russian energy carriers without russian gas and so on. yesterday we had a little chat with the prime minister of poland and he said that the discussions about this will be difficult because they have not yet reached a unanimous decision in the european union and we can listen to a small excerpt from his interview the climate energy policy of the

eu has brought us to such a state that we now have huge inflation and we now have very high energy prices. we in poland are doing everything possible on our part to stabilize the polish budget, but we also want the eu mechanisms to contribute to our efforts and not help the three, the stronger german . the second day of the summit, which continues today and is already ending, will be held in the format of only 27 countries that are part of the european union. again, they will also discuss the energy issue , but we still we are still waiting for more specific details about aid to ukraine, what systems will these be, what exactly will the european union allocate aid to the country, i repeat that this summit is not informal , that is, concrete decisions of some kind, of course it won't happen, however, petr fialet - this is the prime minister of the czech republic, said that everything that was discussed today and was discussed yesterday by the leaders will soon be

implemented in real life, that is, we will wait, we hope, but mr. moravetskyi, even in this comment, such criticisms were definitely directed at there the western countries of europe, the partners of the european union, in that they do not fully understand the security of economic ties, in particular , economic energy dependence, ah, is this the spirit of, well, let's say, alternative opinions also in other countries, is there such and such a unity that it is felt, is there a lot of criticism, are there any separate positions, for example , hungary at this summit, does unity in approaches still prevail, well, polish prime minister merovecki is mostly he spoke of course about germany's proposal, they have some disputes about

it, imerovetskyi will point out that the countries of the european union should be unanimous and not listen to their more western partners and neighbors, and in particular he mentioned germany, but well, some more details er, we will wait again today, but er, as it seems to us journalists who work here, in principle, this issue is unanimous, but of course, as in any issue. i think that each of the leaders who came here today is thinking about how to heat their population in general. i think that we can still say that they will reach some kind of agreement and position on how to replace or look for alternative energy carriers there . without russia they i agree, thank you very much, stetsenko. thank you for this story. thank you for this story. to the correspondent of radio liberty. let us remind you that in prague

for the second day there is a summit, the first of its kind, from the european political community. borel is the head of the foreign policy video of the european union to find how to live in the european community without russia, russia will be isolated on the oso as long as putin is in power and his regime, here is the washington post newspaper, it writes about the fact that a person in the closest entourage of the russian president vladimir putin, in recent weeks , expressed to him her disagreement with the actions that he is taking with the war that russia has unleashed against ukraine and what it is doing now. and actually, according to these journalists, this the information was recognized

as quite important and it was included in the daily briefing of us president joe biden on development, as well as other us officials. so to think, medvedev is not, that is, there is someone even closer than medvedev, a handsome man, it’s still his personal chef, so he incubates a sandwich in the morning and says with sausage with with caviar, so with zucchini, overseas eggplant, and he says that vovan, i don’t agree, i don’t, you’re not like that you're waging a war, well, that's wrong, and then he bowed his head like that and obediently listens to him or not, i don't know what he's listening to, how everything is happening there, again, the table is probably long, he smears the sofa at one end, then she reels like that, it flies up to 20 meters

to putin well, putin, let's catch this one, here's this one, okay, friends, what else do you want to say that's so useful, do you know what else to say? the czech republic is preparing to lay a new beer beer brewery. friendship will be served to königsberg there . if they will serve russian beer. so that they stick to something normal. well, what can we say about us? in continuation of the topic about kaliningrad, the kaliningrad region, e-e once i was in the village of amber or amber eh. it was such a former capital of er. eh, amber mining. there is

the largest amber deposit in the world, and well, when the germans were there, everything was fine, everything was beautiful, because there were even a few houses left in such beautiful, such, german typical ones there in small houses, but there are also uh, these uh, uh, the russian world has built its houses of white bricks, so many stories with balconies from the rich amber region, that region has turned into a poor one, there is also a huge amber mining enterprise there of course, they work there, they wash that amber , people somehow try to squeeze out their own private, somewhere in the basements, those pebbles are polished and then sold, and that's how you look at it, it's all real . pieces if there is probably somewhere deeper to dig

here, pieces are bigger, but having such wealth , having won back and taken this wealth from other people, they did not manage to get it, and there is another one, not even, well, from the soviet union, you understand, you are preserved here, by the way, we actually found out who this person from putin's closest circle who expressed her disagreement is. it turns out that he is a cleaning lady, she is also a billionaire dollar unofficial, that's why she got so angry with him recently that she slapped a dirty piece on the head and that's why he didn't go out today and more yes, i went to replenish, but how much can the president tolerate no commander-in-chief no one everywhere has completely ruined everything and you are still walking around noticing well, here there is already, well, simply, well, there are not enough evil people and those he was hit on the head once and he is now lying in the hospital, he knows he is being treated after that blow and even because of that today he could not accept the greetings, this is also the official explanation now you know the

truth and now you will learn the news iryna koval is ready to tell us thank you to you colleagues , the russians continue to shell ukraine and i will tell you about the situation in different regions of ukraine, so wait in ukraine at 11 o'clock news time on the espresso tv channel i congratulate you in the studio of iryna koval, the russians continue to terrorize zaporizhzhia was hit for the second time in a day in the city, one person received shrapnel wounds, she is receiving medical aid, a rocket fell in the yard of a high-rise building, an apartment building was destroyed there. now, in fact, the utility networks are working and are faulty, the head of the regional military administration, oleksandr starukh, said for the first time in the

morning, the occupiers sent drones to zaporizhzhia , it is known about
