in russia, as a result of diplomatic agreements with the participation of the united states over the past quarter of a century, everything else has been lost, and everything else accumulated over the years, military wealth, most units and formations have been disbanded, and all high-quality military equipment has been sold abroad. almost all of the country's defense enterprises were closed immediately after the change of regime in 2014. the new authorities set a course for the creation of a modern armed forces on the model of nato. since measures are being taken to increase it, the basis of small arms and heavy weapons is still the soviet legacy in the rear. you can even meet machine guns, maxim and dshk. own tank. the stronghold turned out to be too expensive for the army, and the air defense problem was solved. and due to

the old soviet systems, units equipped with drones appeared from the innovations. at present, the ukrainian army is a hybrid of the old soviet heritage of small batches of its weapons and foreign aid a serious problem is the acute shortage of personnel, despite the increase in numbers. the army could not refuse the draft. what is modern warfare intense clashes around the clock and without a pause sometimes continue for months technology can fail, especially the most difficult and decisive role. there plays direct equipment. it should be as reliable as possible with active and prolonged use, so that the unit can be in the field for a long time to carry out combat operations and use superiority in fire power of the russian army. in this advantage. since the weapons are durable and

relatively simple. and can we expect a revision of approaches? well, for example, american strategists, according to the experience of what is happening in the united states, after all, rely on high technologies. we will continue to rely on technology, because we are basically obsessed with them, in my opinion. this is one of our fundamental weaknesses in the military point of view. achilles' heel, let's say, we produce the f-35 aircraft, which, according to its characteristics, is almost impossible to shoot down, but in in reality, it is with what the russians are armed with, because we were too smart with the complexity of the design, but even without this it is simply extremely expensive to operate. experts have identified about 300 cases of critical dependence of the us armed forces on imported components; microcircuits, printed circuit boards and transistors are the basis of all modern technology, like most of the world. america buys them in china, and, as

a 2011 report by senators levin and mccain showed. for the sake of cutting, procurement officials do not disdain and counterfeit and today the situation has not improved much, the pentagon recognizes at least 15% of parts of military equipment, chinese fake, explosives are also largely supplied from china, simply because it was cheaper until 2014 butane triol for halfar missiles was supplied from a single factory. in china, its own closed in 2004 , and only 10 years later, production resumed in the united states. most of the american missiles fly on a missile. hello, using the dechloran plus component, it is produced in belgium but for this you need natural snacks, and they are mined in china, and there is also every little thing, like solar or lithium-ion batteries, semiconductors, copper-nickel tubes and the like. this is

the awakening of a real interest in artillery. we have artillery, but much less than russia we believe in precision strikes, when we have first-class intelligence, we know for sure where the opponents are. there is time to prepare to strike at precisely defined targets, but when the enemy fires back, this will not work, but even if something does not go according to an ideal plan, the weather is bad the human factor is a powerful enemy response, which is able to inflict damage on firepower . and here there is a risk of quickly losing all the advantage and being simply without firepower , they say directly from the united states. there is simply not enough artillery to fight the russians, especially in europe and this is one of the obvious lessons. in my opinion. artillery movement. now the main guarantee of success is much more important than the movement of tanks, because tank breakthroughs must necessarily be supported by artillery, which is able to crush

resistance, if the tanks break away from the syrian cover they can move quickly they become a vulnerable target, modern warfare is slow warfare. there is no doubt, no quick breakthroughs. and i think that the war of the future is a deadly bloody grind of the enemy, in which artillery plays a much more important role than anything else. well, air defense. especially when it comes to drones that are capable of inflicting very big damage. the need to provide the maximum level of air cover for advancing troops. this also slows down the course of the company, but without this, with the destructive power of modern weapons. losses will be very great. but does the data now say a lot about them that this is a decisive factor, yes, it is reconnoitered on the information that needs to be transmitted to ukraine, it greatly increases its combat effectiveness. she is very important. but it is impossible to judge by the current situation. these are deceptive

benefits if you imagine. direct conflict nato and russia, none of the nato reconnaissance aircraft could be in the air in the russian combat area. they would simply knock down such freedom of observation. as it is now, of course, it would not be. western military assistance to ukraine began back in 2014, almost immediately after the change of power in kiev, at first they supplied only special equipment and equipment, but in 2018 arms supplies had already begun. these were javelin anti-tank systems and anti-aircraft walls in 2019. ukraine got baraktar attack drones purchased by turkey with the start of a special operation in ukraine, the united states transferred it almost one and a half thousand stengers 5,000 start-street complexes 50 million rounds of british ammunition canada each supplied

about 5,000 anti-tank and anti- air missile systems to ukraine, germany 1,000 javelins and 500 stingers. slovakia handed over to ukraine three soviet s-300 air defense systems, one of which may have been destroyed in number. military sponsors of ukraine lithuania latvia estonia, the baltic states handed over to ukraine almost all their stockpiles of american weapons. poland pledged 100 soviet t-72 tanks over the past year, according to baden, us allocated $1 billion 200 million to ukraine for security needs as of april 28, the us president asked congress to approve another $33 billion to support ukraine the us congress, following the senate, approved the allen lise bill for ukraine,

which is designed to simplify the provision of military assistance to kiev, this program, according to which the states in the years the second world war provided the equipment of the allies. and you mentioned nato and we see an unprecedented level of consolidation. is it to be expected that the bloc will receive a new impetus for development and increased combat readiness. i do n’t notice something, there are a lot of talks, yes, but there are 30 countries in the alliance. the more participants, the more difficult it is to agree, because the organization is built on consensus decisions, and the discord is actually very large, and we are talking about the block that has not been funded for more than three decades, military power. nata don't tell me except usa none one of the countries is not able to fight, as the ukrainians are now. europeans. the british cannot offer anything serious. army 80.000. this is for peacetime as well. the little polish army is not capable of real actions by the germans with the barracks.

the french won’t even come out completely exhausted by africa well , maybe turkey yes, turkey has an army, but something i doubt that the turks will want to fight russia, definitely not, the americans are militarily, yes and they are capable, but it’s unlikely that they yes, i didn’t go europe more than five armored, brigades and separate question. whoever pays for all this in congress, they say that the europeans should pay, but they don’t think so in germany, for example, now they are talking about allocating 100 billion for rearmament. where will this money come from, especially when gas prices are sky-high at all, isn't it time to think that nato expansion to the east was not such a good idea and finland should weigh what it is doing by joining the alliance russia has already shown that it is not going to tolerate expansion nato at its borders, what is not clear? sweden-finland austria switzerland ireland cyprus and malta decided to remain neutral and not join the alliance, each for

its own reason sweden and switzerland have maintained a neutral status since the 19th century as the best guarantees of security, however, swedish troops and aviation supported the alliance in afghanistan and libya leonid ilyich brezhnev warmly welcomed the inhabitants the finnish capital abandoned the confrontation of the ussr special economic relations in exchange for a non-bloc status and political understanding in the west and nicknamed finlandization independent austria was reborn in 1955 after the withdrawal of the occupying troops. under the agreement between the allies, the condition of sovereignty was the consolidation of a neutral status in the constitution of ireland since 1949 was ready to negotiate with the united states on a bilateral defense treaty, but postponed entry into nato until the eternal north irish

question was resolved, cyprus and malta were neutrally friendly states . cyprus cannot join the bloc, since part of the island is occupied by nato member turkey , while greece temporarily suspended cooperation with the alliance after the turkish landing troops on the island difficult relations with the alliance developed in france in 1966 charles de gaulle refused to transfer the french military under the control of the bloc only in 2009 the country finally returned to the structure of the bloc, and spain was admitted to nato only in 1982 7 years after the death of franco did this idea about open doors come from? there is no such policy, unata, article ten of the agreement says that if someone wants to join, then he must fulfill the membership criteria, and then the alliance decides whether it strengthens the entry of a new country security bloc no automatism. why on earth should

finland be accepted if its entry could potentially lead to a big land war with russia? nato has come to realize that the current development trajectory only leads to a war with russia. the alliance is not ready to enter this war and win it by conventional means. a new security system in europe is needed and they will have to negotiate with the russians. thanks cattle. ritter is a well-known dissident figure so flamboyant but controversial that his opinion from the position of the establishment does not coincide. there now dominates the approach. only victory putin's strategic failure is the most recent thing that sounded from the german chancellor sanctions against russia will be lifted only then. when will he agree to it? ukraine well, that is, never. on monday, victory day, this holiday includes a lot, including the conflict between our country and germany, monstrous in its consequences, and the history of

overcoming it in the second half of the 20th century. overcoming what seemed final, but so is this our guest today vasily dudarev german historian vasily is a stereotyped image of the germans, a warlike people prone to militaristic behavior. but how does this correspond to the intellectual tradition. after all, classical german philosophy. it is primarily about peace in the history of germany, as in the history of any other country, there were various plots and somehow interpret e nation. give her such a cliche - this is somewhat dangerous, because it can lead to wrong conclusions and wrong, and relationships relationships understanding of relationships germany and other countries. of course, the tradition of german, uh german classical philosophy , it is not militant, but we must not forget that the origins of uh in

kant's philosophy, one of the sources of kant's philosophy, was quite the french revolution. not a peaceful event of the end of the 18th century in europe, therefore, in my opinion, talking about militancy is still such a cliché, uh, which will not benefit the understanding of germany's place in europe and the relationship between germany and other states , to say that german philosophy did not influence to the events of the 20th century. but what about niches? in this regard, but at the same time, to say that in german philosophy, the formation of some kind of militaristic spirit is shown. hmm, i would not begin either. uh, most likely, this should be considered here, maybe not even philosophical questions, but those, uh, foreign policy circumstances in which

germany was at the beginning of the 20th century. in the second half of the 19th century, the unification of germany was carried out by an outstanding military diplomat, and later by the reich chancellor. under his influence in 1864. prussia started your here is the land in neighboring states and in 5 years expanded its possessions at the expense of the territory of denmark, austria and france, so in 1871 the german empire was formed, also called the second reich in the next 40 years, germany became one of the most industrialized countries in the world imperial ambitions, military construction and offensive foreign policy of wilhelm ii contributed to the slide of europe to the first world war germany was defeated under the terms of the treaty of versailles. they were

torn away from it, there are significant territories it was forbidden to have an army of more than 100,000 and variable types of weapons, but after only 14 years the nazis led by hitler came to power in germany again, the militarization of the economy began in the thirty-eighth, the annexation of austria takes place, the annexation of the sudetenland of czechoslovakia and in the thirty-ninth attack on poland begins the second world war in forty-fifth after the defeat of germany in world war ii, the yalta-poddam security system was created, the new renaissance of germany was already under the auspices. us starts in forty-nine. it is inextricably linked with the name of the first federal chancellor of the federal republic of germany, konrad adenauer. in 1955, germany becomes a member of nato and she is assigned the main role in the military confrontation of the ussr in the future european theater of

operations in august, the seventieth in the era of the introduction of the brontium of the ussr, the frg signed an agreement. which, in particular, provided for the inviolability of the borders of the kaliningrad region, which became part of the soviet union, the berlin wall collapsed in november 1989, and in 1994 all russian troops left the territory of germany the era of the new russian-german renaissance lasted 20 years until the crimea became part of russia until 70.871, that prussia had the only ally in europe who could help. uh, prussia to implement this

idea of ​​the national unification of germany and this ally. could only russia and bismarck counted on this ally in his e in his correspondence with narrow diplomats in all e. in the capitals of the great european, uh, powers in the second half of the 19th century, he repeatedly wrote that prussia should not even cast a shadow on good relations with russia, which i will note on an unconditional basis, because for more than 10 years, but there were no official agreements between russia and prussia on an interstate basis, only strong relations between monastics and good links between alexander ii bismarck. and these, uh, relations helped in many ways to realize the idea of ​​the national

unification of the germans in the russian state, uh, who, uh, spoke a lot for the benefits of which the iron transfer also worked. he talked a lot, he gave such. the admonition to the german people, this was especially evident already in the third volume of his memoirs of admonition to the german people that well, you should never do this aggressive exit to the east, because here germany will face uh, with the fact that russia well, even if, as bismarck said, it breaks up into some small parts, then they will then unite like mercury into a single whole . our relations with germany sometimes seem fatal mutual attraction, which ends in a terrible break, not one, germany in e. shlag, uh, such uh, events, because she was not united in the european family of states of peoples. after all, there were other

states that were no less interested in having an ally of the once ally of economic allies. faced in a tough this was also a fight in the 19th century, because germany was one of the powerful economic partners in the russian empire. this was also in the first half of the 20th century, because the rapala treaty, and whose centuries we celebrate this year. it was an agreement between soviet russia and germany that was necessary for two states, but not for everyone, of course. this agreement was also liked in this regard. eh, if we consider modern stories, it is very difficult, of course, to predict, uh, the path that relations between the two states will take. also in

in the early seventies, during the time of chancellor willy brother, germany became the main trading partner of the ussr in the western world, according to the results of 2020, the foreign trade turnover of russia and germany amounted to almost $ 42 billion , a decrease compared to 2019 due to the pandemic, almost 80% of russian exports are raw materials. russia also exports metals to germany, including precious german investments in russia reaching 20 billion dollars, while russian investments in the german economy are 9 billion dollars, despite the threat of sanctions, germany remains the main consumer of russian gas in europe in november 2011 the nord stream one gas pipeline was put into operation last year the construction of the gas pipeline was completed. nord stream-2. true, it was not put into operation. i

have always believed that there is a huge potential between modern russia and modern germany, which is not fully disclosed, primarily in the field of economic trade and economic relations, because, uh, the german economy is in many ways in need of such a strong, uh , partner, whom they have been for many years before her. uh, the russian federation has another stereotype about the german character, when the germans do something , they can't stop. that is, they do not belong. the culture of reflection, after all, the germans, of course, are really peculiar to them. for some reason , it takes place after catastrophic events, the main thing is that one of the main acting roles in which germany plays was the same after the first

world war, the eighteenth year is the collapse of the german idea, in fact, and then the german intellectuals, german historians, began to study the tradition, er, of the german idea, which existed in the 19th century. why after world war i? uh, such a surge of study, again, such, uh, bismarck's policies are coming out a huge amount, uh, documents are published a whole series of documentary works dedicated to miss mark, dedicated to uh, the second empire, dedicated to uh, various plots. in this story, a lot of historians are working on this study of the problem of the unification of germany, which was laid down in the middle of the 19th century, there were some dangerous barriers that did not pay attention to politicians of that period of the 19th century, which

then gave rise to sprouts at the beginning of the 20th century, and uh, it seems that , uh, the german people and the german political elites would need to study these things that intellectuals the german ones did not manage to create during the period of the weimar republic, but no, the same thing can be said after the second world war, because uh, the tragedy that befell the german people uh, the germans, in fact, found themselves, uh, facing the same situation as uh they had in 1918 year, divided e divided the people into two states of the frg dr and how to live with it again e a big surge, literature, uh, a big surge dedicated to the weyman republic, uh, interest in studying again the 19th century among the

germans. this reflection exists, only, unfortunately, it occurs. ah here is, uh such here bright moments occur. in my opinion, after some catastrophic events in which germany is punished. yes, now we are again at the stage when everyone will need reflection. then, but it is desirable thanks soon. vasily dudarev from the institute of world history was with us after the commercial oil war.

among them the embargo on russian oil, although it will come into force very gradually historical responsibility for the failure of integration it is not surprising that the economic war has reached a stage when each next step flies back like a heavy boomerang, but the direction of movement has been chosen and seems irreversible, which means that the world energy market will change dramatically. the world oil market reacted to the events in ukraine with sharp price volatility. now the cost of black gold fluctuates from 15 to 110 dollars per barrel , saudi arabia is still the leader in the market against the backdrop of recent events, the country raised flagship grade of oil. the era of the us flat for asia by four and two dollars per barrel , respectively, while american oil

companies are suffering losses after the introduction of a package of anti-russian sanctions.
