that slavery get knowledge and skills ought to be useful to my country. so if you see a though in a, i find an application 0 in this across an interview just now there's a nice one. this you're talking is with us the us mobile, but frankly speaking the i never expected to come with me. i would be part of the 1st book, a group that issue, students disagree with it and i came, i so many message, but on the comrades in arms about you, it was she who here is not the extra the people of us thought again, people i redid my point and spoke that was very excited about the program, just thought it had a yes ma'am. this computer high ranking people, the music coming us, things she was like, we seem to us in a very funny assessable language. by telling us about what methods, arguments. these are the countries here because of the games and you much, it was very intense less we had it with the come across is until it i'm not 70 am i speaking,

those are going to be honest with you to load us with this the so he's buying realized that winning had to do something that destined to do with something that's a program a because of isn't eligible for our team for even those leaving you and just part of this program have lewis. i found myself in the north fill the people in youth in the proposal. so i was, yeah, it's your top of the planet a yes and a prophetic leg, if it's a. yeah, mobile and i realize that as a russian of a sudden with this i can and i will continue to be useful to my country and i think i will take everything this program has to offer and is can offer lots. thank you. rooms with you about your with was just because well it was thank you. you just mentioned to us that code is literally sort of the critical situation a bit. there was such a match in your life, specifically what happened on the battlefield and not know how your comrades saved

your life, typically issues, but then you have to get you. so it's a very was put in an ethical thing to go through the list up and say, it's a tragedy in upstate. just look at what they choose, which in the wash and the same time, there's a thing that's the good it is very important. how are you today still a sheet or mute them usually as in terms of military and civilian life? so, i mean, we, well, today, nation life, nation, you're such that they're going to know which way to do what you can put in, you know, more to even it's a great advantage of us and they have wherever they work with the week of the 16 able to work, as it seems like i'm so after you've gone gone for this, you certainly know what the truth teamwork leads in terms of you might what do you do in the russian railways, right now, this one is a new book out there. i'm still in the ripples i work on social matters on human resources and energy. where did you live in no was to various comb with. well,

i have to talk to the head of the direction and we always, i think you have to move on to the look area. thank you so much. i to please pass on the microphone so cool. can you go to the supreme commander in chief nicolai's circle? oh, for sure. for me. yeah. you know, it covers, you call it a public school. and what is your under fetch her name and your full name andre? suckle off the. she was going to young snow, so we would supreme commander in chief eyes, darted off as a private town. now i'm captain this morning. so driven in which you are able to do . and i've always followed the same principle that between the 2 recalls children,

that arm have of their parents and don't allow fighters, they are someone's children and we're all responsible for the future of our homeland. so i decided to join this program and i was surprised because a senior government officials out also some ordinary ride to watching president puts in their dressing, members of the program called the time of heroes. well, he has been talking about that's training program and educational programs. and he said the meeting wants to engage with participants to talk about the progress of the education program that russia is ready to end the war in ukraine. but peace folks can only begin the key of withdrawals is forces from the dumbasses that parole is. yeah. and the fox on regions and by the abandons, is plans to join nato and the west list. all it's sanctions against moscow. that was the message from the put in as the address to roches for

a ministry. the produce was able to deal with the machine to use it. in the meantime, the west ignores our interest. and at the same time, prohibiting cute from negotiating all the time. people critically calling us for some kind of negotiations. it just looks at the arctic 1st, they would 1st to give them to come on to lift the ban on negotiating with russia. and secondly, we are ready to sit down at the negotiating table even tomorrow. there are legitimate authorities that even in accordance with the constitution and there is someone to negotiate with the police. we already conditions for starting such a conversation. a simple ukrainian troops must be completely withdrawn from the nets and the guns people's republics, gibson and that. but it was the regents as soon as keep declares that it is ready for such a decision and begins a real withdrawal of troops from these regions and also officially notifies of the abandonment of plans to join nato. an order from our side will immediately follow to cease fire and begin negotiations. today we are making another concrete real

piece proposal in kiff and into western capitalism. they also refuse it as before, then in the end it is their business and their political and moral responsibility for the continuation of luncheon. and the conditions for starting negotiations would be different. let me emphasize the main thing. the essence of our proposal is not some kind of temporary truth or suspension of fire. as for example, the west, once this is not about freezing the conflict about about its final completion. and i will say again, as soon as categories to a similar course of events proposed today, agrees to the complete withdrawal of its troops from the dpr and l. p r, and the photos yet, and cache on regions. and really begins this process. we are ready to begin negotiations without delaying them. i repeat this is our principal position. neutral, non aligned nuclear, a free status of ukraine. it's the militarization and the notification. new territorial realities have been recognized. the status of crimea. sylvester poll

still nets against people's republics. guess on ends up only a regions of subjects of the russian federation. naturally, this also presupposes the lifting of all the western sanctions against russia. i believe that russia is offering an option that will make it possible to actually end the war in ukraine, blah, them and put it in statement. it comes as choice a lot is about to host a so called p summit for the ukranian conflict. the how about the conference is focused on the proposal centered around keeps position while the russian side has not been invited. highlighting moscow, the absence of china and brazil have decided disc kit, but he's that a number of countries across the global south of decline to attend as well. but even though by didn't, has opted to raise cash in the hollywood instead of listening to the last case demands. this was the result that we've been in the house

nation switzerland's largest political party says that unless russia is invited to the conference, it will just be an echo chamber of propaganda. a, it's a piece process is to have a chance. the birkenstock conference must not degenerate into a one sided propaganda. an argument conference was people's party demands that all parties to the conflict are included and that the impression is not created that switzerland is organizing a conference for russia's opponents. the federal council must therefore do everything in his power to ensure that the russian side also takes part in the bergen stock conference. this includes an official written invitation to russia from the swiss confederation, by let's cross now live to nails, fietta a below making a switch to another bond and head all the youth waiting on the s v p, the largest political party in switzerland's, national parliament. nails is good to have you join me right now. now you'll party

has insisted that rock should be able to participate in the upcoming ukraine p summit in switzerland. why do you think, ultimately, the organizers decided not to invite russia a good evening? well, yes, its correct russia was never in whitish. however, russia has also made it clear that it does not wish to take part in the burden can stop conference. this refusal is a consequence of the federal councils hasty partisanship following the outbreak of the war in ukraine, and the consequence of switzerland's unreserved acceptance of use actions. the federal council has given to international pressure. this is yet another sign of weakness at anything but neutral, and i personally very much regret this. however, it recently became known as r, for administer explained to the press conference that there was also a 2nd components to russia's non participation. the 2nd was ukraine, did not want russia to be part of the c o our,

of the peace process. switzerland is therefore allowing ukraine to dictate who may or may not be invited to this conference. and it is allowing it to turn into a link to lensky show from the outset with many and significant important figures on show why major powers such as china, india, brazil, and indonesia are not taking part. now can you share with us while your party has taken such a strong stands against the conference organizers over their refusal to invite russia? he may party wants all parties to the conflict to be involved and not to gave the impression that switzerland is organizing a conference for russia's opponents. i very much hope that the federal council of switzerland will come to it sends as tomorrow, as birkenstock at not undermine our neutrality. even further. anything else would be disastrous and would involve switzerland even more and this conflict. and that

is why we have resolutely advocated about the federal counsellor. we should do everything and its power to ensure that the russian side also takes part in the boat and starts conference. but now we are in danger, and it's a great danger of switzerland allowing itself to be drawn into a world war that how productive video thing this be. some a could be without russian involvement with the conference will achieve and nothing . the whole thing is an absolute farce, and, and, and barons, and an embarrassment for our country. it is obvious that 2 sites, 2 sites are always needed for both war and peace. so however, if you only in white one sides to peace negotiations, it's no wonder that no substantive results will emerge. it is clear to me that if the peace process has got a cartridge and that is to have

a chance of making peace. so our federal council has a responsibility to ensure that the burden stop conference does not lead to further escalation and ultimately destroys with neutrality. all right, got shared with us in your opinion, and what do you think is the actual purpose of this piece? some, as you can see, only one worrying party is taking part ukraine. presidents the landscape declared that he wants to get more money and weapons dare. so the supposed peace conference because of war a, conference and switzerland is once again, my new vert into a dangerous position. this part is an event means that russia, increasingly the switzerland as a party to the war and decide if you crane. but the citizens of switzerland don't want that at all. only our politicians wants to give up our neutrality, our independence, and ultimately also our direct democracy in order to gain more power for themselves

. all right now and us president joe biden is also now the expected to attend the summit, that instead he will apparently host a fundraiser in california for his re election campaign. what do you think about his priorities in this regard? well, i am a politician from switzerland and utah state and it's not my job job to comment on the decisions of other states or their official representatives. the americans themselves must know what import and stay attached to international conferences. all right, now now the last key is said to have be not initiate or of this upcoming summit, but he has repeatedly and says that there is no chance of teaching a piece deal with roster. so what do you think heres trying to accomplish with that? to personally, i assume that he wants more money and weapons for the war. but basically you have to ask him by sales, not me, but in my eyes,

a peace conference is only successful if, as the name suggests, it achieves peace. but regardless of that, the whole story is ridiculous. anyway, our friend ministry of switzerland 1st spoke confidently of a peace conference. soon it was just a conference on peace. and now it's supposed to be just a respiratory conference. about switzerland has long been painted neutrality during external conflict. now while the patient is from your party, i say this upcoming summit will be one sided like you had mentioned. busy yeah, well what are your thoughts on if switzerland generally still demonstrates that it is neutral on the remains in utah, a country when this issue has come up? officially, switzerland, a still neutral and a popular initiative by the pro switzerland organization aims to reaffirm this swiss neutrality must apply at all times. and without exception. it must be armed

with an army that can independently defend and protect the country and its people in the event of an attack. however, due to the harmful behavior of our federal counseling, the recent past, switzerland has no longer being proceed step perceived as a neutral by the major world power such as russia, as well as the united states. and that is a huge problem. if you're no longer perceived as neutral, then you are no longer neutral. i therefore call in our federal council to return to strict neutrality, to talk to all warring parties and to form the basis for peace. all right, now going further, what do you think of switzerland was pressured into joining the west sanctions against russia? and do you think it will be better for your country to return to its more neutral position when it comes to this sanctions against russia? yes, desperately. in switzerland we are basically organized in such

a way that the people come 1st. we have got direct democracy. the people are the boss in our politicians. they don't like that. they strive for more influence and power. they have their own for years in mind. and the political elites, it's called glass bodies. deacon switzerland is therefore pushing towards the or p and union. they want to change switzerland into the u. and that also means that our politicians blindly do nearly everything the u demands. are federal council regularly falls through to you and on the issue of sanctions to it was too weak to say we as switzerland as a neutral country, we remain neutral. we do not participate in non military course if measures, for example, sanctions against wearing states. right now, western powers have claimed full years that old a warranties for the conflict. and meanwhile, they have been romping up the military support for ukraine. what do you think the

plan is right here? as i said, i'm a swift politician. i cannot speak for other countries. that's why i focus clearly and firmly on switzerland's neutral position, which i want to defend when our federal council plays with our neutrality as it is doing at these book and start conference, then i criticize it. switzerland must find its way back to strict perpetual neutrality, and that's what's known as the hearts of our policy, as with people's party. all right, we have to leave you here. now neil's fate, the law making the sweets come to the barn and the head of the youth wake up as vp the largest political party and switzerland's national parliament. thank you so much for your insight here. a thank you and moving to asia. now taiwan independence means war, and that's a chilling method from china as defense ministry, as a warranty,

us to stop provoking the issue and supporting separatists for just as, as a common practice in the washington taiwanda belonged to china. how just sold the taiwan issue is a massive symbol. the 1400000 and chinese people know for an interference is allowed show. the must be pointed out that taiwan independence and peace in the taiwan strait inseparable real time on independence means will you wait? we are asking us to recognize the operations and the dangers of the separatist most is advocating for taiwan and we ended cringing hike, enemies and provoking group compensation a common practices in the united states. this also reveals ac routed coldwell, thinking at military and the silly for china has to be very clear a fall where it's red line is and this red line is tie. one declares formal independence. i wouldn't necessitate a war because china best of time. and again, emphasize is holding out for peaceful re unification. but if time went to work to

declare formal independence that's of foreclose on the passive piece. or you read it for cation. the only conclude consequences wouldn't be united space is currently waging economic war against china by right, slacking on sanctions office, sanction dotted, sanctioning china for housing and troops. normal tre, relationship with russia. now all the use asia neighborhood is affected because china outside the economy is the largest in the neighborhood, all the that there has been. so to really integration with the chinese economy over the last 2030 years. we've china catching calls, the whole neighborhood will get a fluid, so it's in the interest of not in east asia to have a, a, a training or was trying to between china and united states because that,

that means every country, well, uh, disagree shall be caught in the middle and they will be negatively affected. this is something that the people use asia wants to see. this is why they're, they're working closely with china right now to, to alleviate the negative effects of the us sanctions high. that's all for me now. my colleagues task. yeah, taylor will be with you at the top of the hour with more stories. by now the, [000:00:00;00]

the more than 200 years before moscow was the seat of power. saint petersburg was at least london, the capital of the russian empire. and it was here that the roman uh, family established a tradition of luxury high end items like imperial porcelain and establish

the i wanted to come here since i was 121 my grandfather told me his mom came from russia. that was part russian. i didn't plan on staying this long. i was gonna look around. i was gonna see if it was for me that like it, maybe i'll look at some properties come back in a few more years after i'm retired and then just finish out life in russia. but then i came and then i was like, i don't remember when i go home, that's how i felt about rush. i love it. i love it so much here that i don't even want to leave. i just want to travel around rush, i have no desire to go to any other country. the i've never been here in the rest of the i've only lived here a few months, but i wanted to tell you what fascinates me about russia and share the stories of other foreigners who lived here like jay who worked as

a chef and now raises godes and makes cheese in the countryside, like chad who has been granted political asylum because he's being persecuted by the f b. i like an american family. that recently moved to russia with 6 children the year we are happy to be here. this is my friend joe. a few months ago he immigrated to russia with his large family. now i'm on the way to visit him. i want to find out why he decided to move here and how he likes it in russia. are you doing pretty good. the joe is an i t program manager. he worked and many large companies including microsoft,

but he gave up everything and moved to russia with his wife and 6 children. and now
