about the third world war, this was said in the context of russia and ukraine, not in the context of china and taiwan or any other conflict, but specifically in relation to russia and ukraine, so in principle i emphasize this precisely in relation to pressure on putin, because there are indeed reasons to believe, let's say, even those who, let's say, have an adequate or normal attitude towards trump in the year 24, have reasons to believe that there are really territorial, in particular, compromises. can be offered as part of an agreement with putin, maybe with the possible, let’s say , mediation of trump, that is, there is such the probability, at least, it follows logically from those not-so-logical statements of trump, shall we say . well, actually, you mentioned the concept of a certain peace plan, which involves the relinquishment of territory by ukraine, and it actually became known today, at least from the announcement. edition of the republic that

german chancellor olaf scholz is probably preparing his plan with similar conditions, and does it turn out that it is possible, right now on the eve of the elections in germany itself, on the eve of the elections in the usa, this is how serious peaceful competition is taking place plans from various partners, and they are so quite threatening, is there such a, let's say, already the atmosphere that such plans will soon be proposed quite seriously, and ukraine will be forced to agree to them. i would say that it is probably a competition on the eve of the election for the leadership in the mediation, if you can say so to or so in the leadership for the initiative, so basically there, i think it is caused precisely by the election, but again before elections, for example in the united states there is not much time left, in some states the so-called early voting or voting for... in advance

starts in 10 days already, so in principle to say that something so large-scale, conditionally some kind of meeting or something else, can be held before the election, well, excuse me, but it must be agreed upon already, let's say about her, so mr. vladyslav, i apologize, unfortunately we have little time, i want to ask you in time about trump's statement at a rally in wisconsin, he said there that he was offended by the fact that putin supported garis in the us presidential election, until the end it is not clear whether he... this in all seriousness, it was possible that it was sarcasm, but i will ask the question, could putin really not want trump to win the election? well, of course, this is not true, and of course, this is the same phrase from trump that he was allegedly offended, with the same seriousness putin said in march that it was beneficial for him that biden won, now he repeated the same thing about kamala harris, they say that she smiles very well somehow and... and they say that she is

so predictable and everything with her is clear, well , of course, this is just sarcasm of a really higher level, and there is no reason to believe that this is really true, because russia continues to interfere in the american information field, tries to interfere again in the elections and so on, that is, actions and words, as always , differ among russians. thank you very much for your analysis, we were contacted by vladyslav faraponov, the head of the institute. of american studies and an analyst of internews ukraine, we talked about the competition of peace plans. the russians at war caused a scandal at the venice film festival. it is about a film by a russian director anastasia trofimova, which was shown at this art event. the very fact of showing her tape caused a big scandal in ukraine and abroad. what is the tape itself about and why, in addition to ukraine, are they also protesting in canada? see in the plot. the voice you just heard belongs to

anastasia trofimova, a documentary filmmaker who lived with russian soldiers near the front line in ukraine for 7 months. her goal was to make a film about ordinary russians who went to war against ukraine. trofimova herself is a russian who previously collaborated with the rasha tv channel today, last week her film "on war " was screened at the venice film festival out of competition. in russia, these are the heroes who never die. in the west, they are mostly war criminals, war criminals, war criminals and all that. so when i go there i didn't know what to expect. it was probably a mixture of these slogans, and for me the biggest shock was to see how ordinary they were, absolutely ordinary guys with a sense of humor, with their own understanding of what was going on

this war, about the appropriateness of such a film on they began to talk about the venice festival through the accents that sound in the tape, old weapons... unprotected transport, at a certain moment the operator of a russian drone drops a charge on his side, as if the only things that are constantly available are cigarettes and alcohol. some soldiers admit that they fight for money, and what they say on state tv channels is a lie. the film also tells how a team of medics retrieves bodies from the battlefield. they cry when three of their own unit return in black sacks. the author was accused of humanization soldiers against the backdrop of war crimes fleeing ukraine, although anastasia trofimova herself noted that she had not seen russian soldiers commit war crimes. that's another story, and that was the reality they lived. if war crimes were committed, you would obviously see them on screen.

ukrainian politicians, diplomats and the film community expressed outrage at the screening of the film russian at war at the venice film festival. they accused trofimov of... playing up russian propaganda and whitewashing the crimes of those who, i quote: came to someone else's land with weapons. in the film russians at war, they try to put a sign of equality between the aggressor and the victim, referring to the human cost on both sides, whatever human cost russia has suffered - it is her fault. despite the protests, the film is also scheduled to be screened at the toronto international film festival, and the film was financed by the canadian media fund. the amount of financing is 340 thousand canadian dollars. that's about a quarter of a million us dollars. olga armyanyshina, radio liberty. meanwhile, it became known that the ukrainian community canada opposed the screening of anastasia trofimova's documentary russians at war at the toronto film festival. canadian ukrainians also criticized the media foundation

of canada for sponsoring the russian tape. oleksandr grodnyanskyi, a film producer, is in touch with us. i congratulate you. good evening. greetings, good evening. tell us, ... a person from the industry, and why, how did it happen that the venice festival allowed the screening of the film russians at war, by anastasia trofiimova, who previously worked at the propaganda channel, for example, rasha today, and in general , this tape caused a lot of outrage? i think that you and i can only discuss this topic, i never asked the management of the venice festival why you did not include this film in the program, but it is clear enough that they took two two pictures. the first ukrainian film, ah, song, er, earth that burns slowly, directed by olga zhurbyi and provided it to anastasia trofimova's film, they probably thought that it was an anti-war

film, which, ah, tells the same trench the truth, which usually remains outside the fog of war, and you can answer the question: what makes these people who fight in ukraine, as you already said, most of those who appear on the screen are contractors, they fight for money, that makes them mercenaries who commit war crimes. the problem with this film is not that it's not anti-war, the problem with that film is that the director, by choosing a side, where she... worked, where she placed her camera, definitely sympathized with her characters, she automatically did, and she together with they're among those who have to

kill and die, and that's the problem with documentaries, because you need distance from your characters, and so in the frame it turns out... that there are people, of course, because you're talking all the time time with people who die, who eat, get sick, do whatever, that is, they, they are the heroes of the film, neither those soviet banners that were slanted, nor those tanks that burned down, nor funnels from explosions, but people , which definitely evoke sympathy, unfortunately, but... i don't in us, who knows what is happening in ukraine, in ukraine they can't even arouse sympathy, well, let's say there is an episode when a girl, a medic , digs into the pockets of a murdered man, in a moving car, and she digs into those pockets, to find

documents or a token, well, somehow there to find out about his surname, at this time andrii gubin's hit song is playing in the car and... she feels like singing over the body of a murdered, murdered russian soldier, it's about this, about this film, and it seems to me that the leaders... of the venice festival knew that it existed such real documentaries, documentaries that unfortunately we have now, no, go on, yes, now, i apologize, now we are trying to reconnect with our guest, we are talking to oleksandr ronyansky, the film producer, mr. oleksandr, i see that you actually , there is no connection with us again... i wanted to clarify with you whether there is a fact about this film, and whether it is possible to

conclude that someone ordered it, for example, from russia, or it could be, actually we can see , that the canadian media fund financed this film, that it could be a kind of unconscious financing of russian propaganda, well, you know, when you watch the film, you constantly wonder if this is not the order of some smart people from the ministry of defense. of the russian federation or the fsb, because this is clever propaganda, you know, this is soft power, as they say, soft power, and it definitely occurs to you, on the other hand, i absolutely assume that anastasia trofimova, who is a canadian citizen, who filmed in syria, iraq, libya, she took part in the work on the documentary, hbo, stories about the organ trade. he was called, which won the most, the biggest

canadian award for a documentary film, such a canadian oscar that, that she proposed to make an anti-war film about the russian military, i assume, but it turned out what it turned out, the film begins, so you can imagine, that on the eve of the new year 2023, documentarian anastasia trafimova... meets ukrainian ilya on a train, a train near moscow, who is temporarily returning from the combat zone of actions in the ukrainian territories occupied by russia, from donbas, and he is returning from a duffel bag with a st. george ribbon on it, he returns with a santa claus beard, because he wants to meet his children, cheerfully, and in his... in such transparent blue eyes there is a strange coldness, then she, anastasia trafimova, seems to

be negotiating with tsimilla , therefore, about the fact that she will come to him in the combat zone, and she really does come, and then, again, as if without the permission of the ministry of defense, which actually causes me. unfortunately, we lost touch with oleksandr radnyansky again. actually , i guess what i wanted to say, actually ours guest about filming without the permission of the ministry of defense of the russian federation in the russian-occupied part of the donbas, indeed, if not impossible, then difficult, but i suspect that it is simply impossible, that is, it is actually about the fact that anastasia trofimova could film her a film with such a permission from russian institutions and possibly with control of what will be in this

film, but we do not claim this, we can only really, as oleksandr rodnyatsky himself said on our air , speculate. so, with that, i thank you for watching svoboda live, let me remind you that we today we talked about, in particular, the premiere of the film russians at war, which caused outrage in ukraine, and unfortunately we did not have time to talk about... about the fate of this screening at the toronto film festival, and there i will remind you that the ukrainian community is protesting against it being shown there, well, we will follow, probably it can be canceled there. with that, i say goodbye, this program was hosted by sashko shevchenko, thank you for watching and goodbye. in september there are discounts on amiksin ic, 10%. the book women at war - shared a project of the espresso tv channel and the duh

i welcome voice of america in ukrainian and our chas time program. my name is ostap yarysh. the united states is concerned about information about the alleged transfer of iranian ballistic missiles. missiles of russia - stated deputy spokesman of the state department vedan patel. according to him, any transfer of iranian ballistic missiles will mean a serious escalation of iran's support for russia's aggression against ukraine. at the same time, the state department emphasized that the us policy regarding strikes deep into russian territory and the use of american weapons remains unchanged. there are no policy changes that we are ready to announce. we have clearly stated. as well as our partners within the symi group, as well as at nato summits, that we are ready for a serious response to such actions i won't get ahead of myself, but i

've talked before about the growing concern about the deepening security partnership between russia and iran since the start of the full-scale russian invasion. we continue to closely monitor this, particularly the actions of president pezeshkian, who continues to publicly say that... the improvement of his country's economy depends on the improvement of iran's foreign relations and position in the world. at the same time , such statements cannot be combined with reports of the transfer of missiles that threaten international security and international order. meanwhile, the united states congress is back to work after its summer recess. among the most urgent issues is the adoption of a temporary budget that would continue funding the government. at the same time, it is also related to the possibility of continuing the stable. support of ukraine. our correspondent at the congress, kateryna lisonova, will tell you more. hello katy, thank you for joining the conversation. katya, so currently an important issue

that worries ukrainians is the armed forces. support of ukraine in the future, now in the pentagon they have the ability to provide about $6 billion more in arms to ukraine from its stockpiles, but congressional approval is required for that ability to remain beyond the end of the current fiscal year, which ends in september. explain what is the current situation with this? in short, we need to explain to our viewers that if these funds are not used by the end of this month, they will actually burn, but here we need to explain even more to our viewers what exactly it is about, because this is ... just one of the articles aid to ukraine, when congress approved aid to ukraine in the spring of this year, one of the articles of aid was the so-called presidential powers. in this way, the congress allocates a certain amount of funds, more precisely, it is not about the funds themselves, but allocates an opportunity for the president to provide assistance to ukraine for a certain amount of funds, that is, it is not specific finances, but, for example, a certain number of tanks or ammunition for

a certain amount of funds , which, which... prescribed in the congress, to use these presidential powers, the president, the administration the president had until the end of the fiscal year in the united states of america, which expires already this month, that is, at the end of september, it is possible to save these funds by extending the validity of these presidential powers. this can be done in two ways: or if the president informs congress that he plans to extend these presidential powers and continue to provide aid to ukraine for these 6 billion. dollars remaining of these presidential powers, or if congress actually legislates authorizing the administration biden to continue providing aid to ukraine for the remaining amount of funds. certain ukrainian organizations, in particular razm for ukraine, have already sent a corresponding request to lawmakers in congress, and they are calling on lawmakers in general to vote on this as a form of legislation and to allow

the biden administration to continue this assistance. to use these presidential powers, but it is also worth adding here that when the fiscal year ends, the main issue, as you rightly pointed out for congress and washington, is generally to agree new united states government funding for the new fiscal year 2025, in this case. i have already talked to some staffers in the congress, they said that they expect that the legislators will probably add the extension of these presidential powers for ukraine to the short term. resolutions on financing the government in 2025, that is, at the end of this month, to the short -term temporary resolution on the continuation of the funding of the government of the united states of america, may also add this clause on the continuation of the presidential authority for these 6 billion dollars. one way or another, this should be expected only at the end of this month, and again, just like last year, aid to ukraine is now on the second issue, after

the approval of the budget of the government of poland. states of america, one way or another, that's all, i will ask the legislators already tomorrow and i will clarify with them whether they plan to extend these presidential powers in a legislative form, and if so, in what way and within the framework of which legislation? we will wait for these comments, katya. we know that tonight in the house of representatives they are also supposed to vote on another bill called no to the russian tunnel to crimea. tell me in more detail, what is it about? in fact, this draft law is supposed to make it more difficult for russians to get into the occupied crimean peninsula from the russian mainland. against all who in one way or another helps to build a tunnel or a bridge, to rebuild a tunnel or a bridge from

the russian mainland. to the occupied crimea, and in order to one way or another block the possibility of building these roads between mainland russia and crimea, this draft law was created, it will be considered today, this draft law also prescribes some exceptions by which these sanctions can be avoided, in particular, it is about when it is provided, in particular, it is about the provision of humanitarian aid or the fulfillment of international obligations. the president can also in principle refuse. imposing these sanctions, this bill is bipartisan, with democrat gregory meeks, the co-chairman of the house foreign affairs committee, as its primary author, but also with a number of republicans. and yes, it should be expected that he probably gets bipartisan support, but we will see how the voting ends today and let our viewers know.
