tv Interview RT April 22, 2022 8:45pm-9:01pm EDT
8:45 pm
a retired officer back in 1999 when nater was ruthlessly bowman. bell grade you and asked mc serb, we're part of a unique operation in which they ask 117 knight hawk stout fighter jad, of america's air forces was shut down. as far as i know, this was the only time when the aircraft of that type was lost in combat. how did that happen with richard? that night i was at the command post of the 200 and 58th air defense missile brigade, which was guarding belgrade, chief of staff. colonel dragon, stank of each, was the commander of the task force. my zone included the 3rd battalion, which was under the leadership of colonel danny's alton. we were in touch and he was telling me what he saw in his radar. and i was relaying to him the until that i got from our control and reporting center. at some point a target appeared and the intercept zone of the 3rd battalion. and i gave danny the order to shoot it down. as i said, did you know what the target was? yes. mean his lawyer took no,
8:46 pm
we didn't. it was just the target force. his team did a good job. and the next day we found out from the news on t v that we had shot down an f 117 night hawk stealth aircraft. the pride and joy of the united states air force. i guess the saying is true, we just didn't know that it was supposed to be invisible. so you learned about the success of your operation from the near? yes, from one who you feel at that moment. cougar's pride. it's not every day that you get to shoot down a stealth aircraft. this happened for the 1st time ever. this helped on the emotional level by boosting the morale of the 3rd battalion. it remained the most successful battalion throughout the whole bombing operation. it fought for $78.00 days and didn't suffer any losses at that. i here. yeah. amazing. so as far as i understand, if you hadn't shut down the bomber, it would have carried out its mission rate. the thermal, nearly on as it was coming to was our air defense command post,
8:47 pm
but it didn't succeed on its way out. it wanted to strike the 3rd battalion and ended up being shot down the f 170 ne has a computer that tracks its route so it can avoid any threats. but they didn't know where our defense battalion was maneuvering and hiding. well, there was an imperative force. we were also good at diversion. some say that we used microwave ovens, those were not microwave ovens, of course we call them radio signal imitators. others do i show that they caused confusion when they used anti radiation missiles against us. we would turn on these alternative devices, along with our actual raiders. these imitators drew the missiles towards themselves, so our equipment stayed safe, you know, and trailing any military secrets idea, is this a well known tactic? this is new political. yes, it is a well known tactic. we didn't come up with this idea. i actually don't know. maybe we were the 1st ones to employ it. but from what i understand russians were ready
8:48 pm
to sell us these devices while we manufactured them from whatever we could get our hands on. river boat raiders, old aircraft raiders. i think that today it is a well known tactic. it happened back in 1999. yes, i see you brought a small piece of it. oh yes, i brought a fragment of the f 117. a stealth aircraft. this part is from its wing. this is the so called honey come structure. it is very lightweight. this technology is well no noun. it is used in russian aircraft as well. the settle up a why does look like a honeycomb thought? yes, a honeycomb. i'm here. where do you get a? did you just go to the crash site door? oh yes, there were lots of those fragments there, but it mostly stayed intact. it didn't shatter. it was falling like a leaf. it fell in one spot and just one when got severed. we had a hard time retrieving the swing from our roemer, people who had collected it because of its valuable metal. they were taking it away in a way and steven showed it on t v. how are rome?
8:49 pm
people were transporting the pride and joy of the u. s. air force and what happened to the pilot the waterfall? the pilot catapulted. he was scared of being captured, but it was in the early days of the wool. on march 27th. the war started on the 24th. it was a quiet neighborhood of belgrade. the troops were in kosovo. we only had civil defense in the area. so american just came and rescued the pilot that night. we couldn't shoot them down, playing forward, auto range. we tried but failed. said he survived those, those are you. oh yes, he survived. he later visited serbia and apologized. he says he had no idea and now his opinion has changed. his origins. i actually in yugoslavia, lavinia, his mother, was from slovenia. his last name is aiko a to more than why did he change his opinion with time? is i all, i don't know he met with danny's alton and in that meeting he said that bombing yugoslavia was a mistake. i don't know if he was sincere me, uncle,
8:50 pm
why did you shut down only one plane. as the raleigh, i think we shot many more. my brigade responded to enemy alerts 51 times, but those planes flew at 10000 meters and serbia isn't very wide. so those aircraft that we're head often managed to land outside our territory. they denied being shut down and we couldn't prove anything. some planes even made it back to their home air drums. they said there was an aircraft boneyard at the avi ana air base, according to their instructions. damaged planes were no longer allowed to go on mission. so for us, i say you can, i, so what is moscow has always been stressing that the current conflict in ukraine has a lot to do with nate as expansion east. so and i'll say, do you see any parallels between what's happening today and what was happening in survey and the balkans 20 years ago? yes, we room. of course i do. there are very obvious parallels. i think what they do in
8:51 pm
yugoslavia was in preparation for a conflict with russia. they used us as a training ground to practice how to break up russia just like they broke up yugoslavia. i see that everything that had happened in yugoslavia is happening here now. for example, all these fake reports that i see everywhere now we had the same, there were used during yugoslav was 2 only back then we couldn't do anything about them. they did it to demonize serbia and all these fake reports were used as a pretext to bomb yugoslavia, such as the rock massacre which was a fake. it's the twin brother of the butcher massacre fake russian television has compared to the case of this rebrand. it's a massacre, but the events and cerebral needs are, were different. you can't compare them in strawberry inn, it said there was a group of fighters whose deaths were presented as a result as a crime. no, that's the thing, not just to crime a case of genocide. suddenly there was a crime committed there to some serbian soldiers who engaged in that fight took revenge after their families had been killed when lots of serbians died. that was
8:52 pm
a crime and were aware of that, but there was no genocide, not a single woman or child was killed there, only men who were fighting. and they made a memorial cemetery there and have been bringing the remains from all over bosnia and herzegovina to bury their, to make a really big number of graves. they love us. so what do you think happened in the ukraine in town of buttah vegas, yours. i, it's a fake. i know everything about what happened there. i saw it. you showed it how 1st the dpi militia was there and how all was fine. and then how the nazi fighters said they need to kill everyone wearing white arm bands. i don't know why they didn't remove those white arm bands. some questioned who those people were. if they wore yellow arm bands that would raise questions about who they were. and the mayor of butcher was very happy when the russian troops left. i keep when the russian troops left the city, the ne, pasted in the days, indeed luxurious and he wouldn't be so happy if such
8:53 pm
a massacre had occurred. the same things happened and serbia and every one in serbia knows what really happened while you see what the west is saying about the same events. no. speaking of arching a slab, a, it seems, nater had some success there for you. yugoslavia is small and had no support at the time. we had no allies. we were the all european nation that had to fight the american troops after world war 2. is the citation different today for yogurt? today the situation is different. rushes well prepared. it's one of the major world powers. i believe that the u. s. dominance has come to an end. russia must win again. he said, you think russia will win? what outcome would be considered a victory for russia? you think? i think russia's command is doing a great job there. ukraine is a proxy of the west and it's war and russia, naziism and fascism are on the rise in the west. western democracy these days is nothing but nazi's mon essence. the as of battalion was trained by israel,
8:54 pm
it's now and they were trained by nathan's, tractors. yeah, that's right. the same jews who were victims during world war 2 today are training nazi fighters. i have friends in israel who think this is an acceptable dissertation on the ground as dramatic, of course, with lots of shelling, fire ane death and destruction. but there is also a massive information war going on. you mentioned before, they seemed to view that you can't find a way to follow our teen english or spoken inc. anywhere that co. now that's true, not in english was band. sputnik and serbian isn't banned but it's been the target of endless d dos attacks. and i haven't been able to read it even once. i follow our teen russian every day was like how he's winning and who is losing this information or in your opinion, for lovejoy or the party, the sleeping, the information wolf is in fact, losing on the ground. because the only thing they can do is produce fakes. cartoon published once with one russian soldier, saying to another with a sad face. we've lost the information war after the battle to take control of the
8:55 pm
white house in washington dc. time will show who was right, who's cause was just and who's wasn't ours is a just cause victory will be hours, especially with the coy optimism. thank you for being so optimistic. miss alexis, many countries to day face edge dramatic press sherry, they are being pushed to choose whether they are on russia side or in ukraine's survey. it does feel the pressure to for sure. yet, despite all the consequences and risks the survey might face because of its disobedience, they, serbian people and leadership support russia. how do you know that you are on the right side? with throughout the entire period of newton history? i see connections. everything that happened 1st in serbia happened later in russia, and when it started, it was never our fault. the majority of serbians considered russians, a brotherly nation. i don't know why,
8:56 pm
but i know that's how we all feel. we're brothers one big nation. so to say we're even cooled little russians of the balkans and that's no wonder. and that's just how it is. you can see that all other nations that were once liberated by russia's red army and were once parties to the warsaw pact and now on the opposite side against russia. no one has ever forced serbia. that's just how we feel that serbians and russians are brothers forever. watching like if he wouldn't approach on you. meanwhile, i can say today if he would agree with you or serbia or official moscow, do you think they can come back one day later with apologies like that pilot of the fight and that you shut down dead. can they come to say they just saw it all wrong? and i don't know, these are just one of cases in serbia and we also have the 5th column just like in russia. it's a big problem for us. why is that the west uses the 5th column to try and control us? it's really active these days. people say this means that our president has chosen
8:57 pm
the right policy. we can all easily go out in the streets and chant our support for russia, but it's much harder for our leader. we are surrounded by hostile nater, member states. how can we survive and such environment? is it a carry your we fought in many was there was a time. i didn't believe a major will. could ever happen again. but then i had to fight into conflicts. my father died in 1993 and sorry ever, we don't want any more. was serbia's population is shrinking, each new war took half of what had been left of us after the previous one. there aren't many serbs left here ration is really good. where do you learn it? while i'm self taught one, it was your well them? yes, i did until year 2000 i could barely say a few words. and then i said to myself, i have to learn russian can to call this hell. my soul's desire is the slavish culture that we share. it's the science, technology arts. it's
8:58 pm
a great civilization for me. russian language was due to the russian culture and science. i have a technical education. all the books i couldn't read before. later became available on the internet. i wanted to read the russian classics in the original. i read anna karenina, the brothers karamazov and serbian, and russian simultaneously to teach myself. and then we all got the internet and cable tv, and it helped me with my pronunciation. i had no speaking practice, this is the 1st time in gray jour, mr. alexis, i haven't ever talked so much in russian until recently. specify melissa alexis, thank you so much for your time. i wish you and all of us piece the sooner the better away. thank you that. ah, ah, nice hunter,
