we are workers here, to help restore the triumphal arch, my duty as a resident, we are proud of our participation in the work, how proud of the ancestors who once built this arch, we hope that life will return to our city again , farms will be restored and tourists will come thanks to the russian for the syrian team, the restoration process will take several years to destroy the destroyed elements. experts will recreate. now the samples taken from the quarry of romarized limestone are being studied. this stone is closest to the original will begin the next stage of restoration in the autumn, russian archaeologists will conduct a full-scale scientific study of the entire territory of the yevgeny chirochkin beast arch. what will this day be remembered for in history ? hello may 31, 17 bc in ancient rome, secular games began; they were arranged every century with sacrifices. underground gods, a theatrical

performance was arranged, but this time was especially. on the very first day of the holiday, the roman ruler octavian augustus, who headed the state after the death of his uncle, the famous julius caesar, octavian is considered the first roman emperor. although formally considered only the principle itself, that is, the first among senators. he proclaimed the advent of an era of universal peace. promised the people peace, prosperity and order, based on the quote loyalty to honesty and morality. this has only partially come true. rome grew rich at the expense of the conquered countries, but the wars did not stop, and the emperors who came after octavian cared little for omar on may 31, 1864 in st. petersburg the civil execution of nikolai chernyshevsky took place, this writer and socialist utopian was considered the number one enemy of the empire, he was the idol of the students, the inspirer of the secret society of the land and the will

, his proclamation called the lordly peasants, bow from their well-wishers, became the reason for chernyshevsky's arrest. in it, the author called for an uprising. and in the early morning of that day, but on mytninskaya square they erected chernyshevsky's shafot , put him on his knees, took off his cap and read out the sentence of 14 years of hard labor and life imprisonment. a settlement in siberia, they broke a sword over their heads , hung a sign on their chest with the inscription a state criminal, and for a quarter of an hour they attached it to a pole with chains while still in custody in the peter and paul fortress. chernyshevsky wrote a famous novel. what to do which became a guide to action for many revolutionaries admired by alexander hertsan? pyotr utkin and vladimir lenin may 31, 1868 is considered the birthday of cycling. on that day, cycling races were first organized in paris in the park saint-clun competitions. approved by the emperor napoleon the third distance was chosen at 1200 m from the

entrances to the park to and you then had a 40 kg front wheel slightly larger than the rear with solid rubber tyres, chains, gears and pneumatic chambers. such machines had not yet appeared, they were called bone shakers. first finish. reached the englishman james in 3 minutes 50 seconds. in the same year, races were held in great britain, belgium, the czech republic and other countries in 1883, for the first time, cycling competitions were built in russia on moskovsky and girlfriend may 31, 1962, soviet newspapers published decision of the government party, and the increase in prices for meat, meat products and oils is an agrarian policy. nikita khrushchev ended in failure in many cities. people went to rallies, got out and issued anti-soviet leaflets, but a particularly acute situation developed in novocherkassk in the rostov region the day after

the publication of the decree . he had already been given a pay cut when the plant manager said not enough money for meat pies. eat with liver - this caused the fury of the protesters was more than 14.000. they seized the building of the city administration and the party committee, blocked the railway on the night of june 2, troops entered the city on the demonstrators, opened fire. several dozen people were killed. many were seriously wounded and found seven instigators. they were sentenced to death . more than 100 people were sent to the camps all the information about these events by secretaries on may 31, 2003 . in tsarskoye selo, in the great hall of the catherine's palace, a recreated the legendary amber room, this masterpiece was created at the beginning of the 18th century for the prussian king frederick the first, and his son gave the room to the first russian

emperor peter the great under catherine ii, the room became more. more elegantly, it was supplemented with six tons of amber during the great patriotic war, the nazis took out the room. has it survived and where is it still? this mystery restoration work began back in the eighties, they were incredibly complex and had to rely on 86 black and white photographs, watercolor drawing and several items that saved one amber panel in the evacuation, and a chest of drawers. found by the germans. this also helped the talent of the craftsmen to return the amber room to us. in all her splendor, she is often referred to as the eighth wonder of the world, and this was such a day in history.

it pours, it pours, it smokes, it melts. why do russians smile so little in the center of the brightest world , the blackest holes are born, but everything they do does not count. and why do russians smile so little to drown out trying it already happened we

repeat russians. why are you so little? are you smiling? are we smiling? when what is planned happens, when we meet with a kindred spirit, we smile, and at the end of each long winter we smile just a little bit, we through the screeds this earth rises to me through the ties, this earth smiles, you stand on it, you feel like strength from the feet. a face rises in my head and smiles itself when, where there was only ice, cities appear, when our first goes into space, when the one who should reach victory reaches, and then returns to the

compromise on the ban on the supply of russian oil still no hasn't helped yet. even the new proposal of the european union about a possible exception for the pumping of oil through a pipeline from russia to europe, the discussion of the sixth package has obviously dragged on for about a month, and in the european commission. we are interested in finding a single solution that will suit all 27 countries. i would like to emphasize the good atmosphere that prevailed in the negotiation room. many countries have asked that the

peculiarities of their situation be taken into account. and i think that here we can come to a consensus, while we have there is a margin of flexibility, and i cautiously continue to hope that we can work out a text of an agreement that can enable a package of sanctions to be signed by all countries. true, as the reuters agency writes , an exception is possible for pipeline oil. it can only be a temporary solution, and some countries are proactive and offer their own solutions to energy security issues, for example, croatia recalls that the country has its own lng terminal in the current circumstances croatia has the potential to become a real energy hub for central europe the most effective would be additional investment in the existing liquefied natural gas terminal most likely we will go in this direction and we are very close to decisions on such investments, as far as pipeline oil is concerned, remove it and the list of sanctions is not proposed by chance, if the restriction of the sixth package affects

only the oil that is supplied by sea, this will take away slovakia, hungary and the czech republic from the blow earlier, the european union was already ready to make other concessions and offered a longer transition period until the end of 2024, as well as monetary compensation to countries of 2 billion euros, but hungary, for example, estimated the damage to its economy at 15-18 billion euros. and this is quite understandable. in total imports, this country accounts for more than 44% of slovakia, almost 80%, according to the prime minister of hungary, if the restrictions do not affect the druzhba pipeline, this is just a step in the right direction, hungary's position is very simple because energy is serious. this means that first we need solutions, and then the sanctions proposal, which we received is not good. we are ready to support the sixth package of sanctions if there are guarantees for the security of energy supplies to hungary, options for

including oil pipelines - this is a good approach, but we need guarantees that in the event of an accident with an oil pipeline that passes through the territory of ukraine, we will have the right to receive oil from other sources . while there are disputes in the eu over options for an oil embargo from russia, exchange prices continue to go up for the brand more than $116 per barrel, the urals brand is trading above $90. and bloomberg has already announced that in april the pumping of russian oil to asia for the first time in history exceeded exports to europe , india and china were especially active in buying fuel. by the way, it is china that ranks first in the list of the largest buyers of russian oil, the country received more than 70 million tons . last year. in total, in 2021. russia delivered almost 230 million tons of oil more than $ 110 billion , and while there are disputes in europe around the sixth package, india china continue to increase demand china will be the

biggest beneficiary of the change in supply routes as china will be the main buyer in the market and will try to get a substantial discount on the calculus. in this case, it is very simple that russia exports to europe 4 million barrels of oil and petroleum products per day, this is 400 million dollars, and as soon as we find ourselves in the new reality of 2023 or with the oil embargo, if it is introduced earlier, russia will still be able to export most of volumes of produced of oil to china, but the total revenue will not be $400 million , but approximately $200 bloomberg reports that in just a week in mid-may, tankers transported about 80 million barrels of oil from russia to asia. russia became the fourth largest supplier of oil to india . five positions and, as experts explain, it will be

difficult for the united states to prevent this, because the united states needs india as a strategic

ally to contain china times for the first time since 20. the all-russian action night of museums took place without anti-covid restrictions and

more than 100 sites worked in moscow for residents and guests of the capital. one of them is a museum. darwin's queue stretched for several hundred meters without social distance, masks, gloves , temperature measurements for the first time in 2.5 years, muscovites. finally breathed the air of freedom and massively. let's go to the museum. you have to understand that this is a very museum requested, in general everything was online in the past. means the museum for the restriction practically took place half. and here we are for the first time in years. we can work both online and offline and have created a very special space here, which will certainly delay visitors, but today this space is still full of a variety of additional activities. and we have three musical groups performing two dance performances today. and there will be a very

unusual master class on projection light. the excitement around the darwin museum is logical, even during the pandemic, employees continued to work hard, organizing online tours in the morning at 8:00. you you sit down at the computer and get out at 12 at night, because then we just started online broadcasts of discussion clubs, lectures, master classes, uh, quizzes, quests. we have done it all online. so the museum functioned very actively all the time. many thanks to the government of moscow precisely for the support, because they supported us, honestly compensated for the shortfall in income, and therefore people did not run away, people worked, and then worked a lot online. we went online to work, but, in principle, financial fate is not the government of moscow, we would not we know what we are doing. and when the coronavirus has receded , one interesting exhibition is replacing another,

missing museums, muscovites are storming updated cultural spaces. we have no more than two months, maximum. here is this exhibition in the world of smell. yes, it opened a month ago, but it will close in a week and there will be a very interesting exhibition of a man and a bear during the night of museums event, moscow mayor sergei sobyanin opened two new cultural spaces at vdnh at once, today 20 museums are working at vdnkh spaces, starting from the beekeeping museum, ending with the museum complex of astronautics today. ah. the enterprise is joined by two more museums, this is the timiryazeva museum. and uh, biotech museum. the museum of biotech is located in the restored pavilion number 30 microbiological industry, the exposition tells about biotechnologies and their practical

application, and in the neighborhood of the restored geology pavilion in honor of the centenary of the timiryazev state biological museum, a permanent exhibition was opened 12 living signs. this exhibition is unique, the exhibition of which is our museum, the items of which are more than 1,000 here, along with modern art , along with objects of contemporary art, and explain how the living differs from the inanimate , the best place for biology lessons cannot be found in a compact informative. and most importantly, many of the exhibits can be touched. here is one of our exhibits, which here is a petrified wood, to which 300 million years it is paleozoic, it is tactile yes, absolutely right. ladies with him velvet amur which you can also touch and understand the difference between the colder that's right. quite right.

this is petrified wood. you are now practically touching what was an ephedra 300 million years ago from the archives of the museum you got a unique exhibit. for example, a collection of wet preparations, created by the founder of the museum, boris zavadovsky. and this is perhaps the most popular part of the exhibition among schoolchildren, a wonderful exhibit, which we are also proud of. this is a skeleton, a boa constrictor is a very beautiful story. i mean, we're watching it. see how many ribs he has from the skeleton of an eagle. it's very beautiful objects, but once again i repeat this is one, but a small small part of the entire museum fund. we have 106.000 items in total. and here are only about a thousand. the study of the biology of agriculture will soon become uninterrupted , thus the very abbreviation of the park exhibition of achievements of the national economy is becoming more and

more relevant at vdnkh there are a large number of gardens. and even vegetable gardens. and now we've been working on it . vdnkh issue the revival of a greenhouse here, which could, among other things, help us together with the guys, just not only in theory, but also in practice. uh, some of the participants are moments related to the biological processes of what surrounds us in the scientific and educational museum. now the trend is the moscow planetarium. didn't lose during the pandemic. in vain, the famous lunarium underwent a large-scale modernization. here we have created an innovative space using the most modern technologies and one of our innovations. this is the one that appeared in the updated lunarium. this is a huge periodic table , we filled this huge table, and with those, and filled the cells with those objects where b this element is found in large quantities in space, the child does not feel like a spectator, but as a researcher, all interactive screens can be

touched by the hands of the exhibits, start chemical reactions and even plunge into the epicenter of a tsunami or earthquake. we have a new exhibit called earthquake. this is a huge dynamic chair. won. there the boy himself downloads a huge dynamic chair. you choose the magnitude of the oscillations and choose the depth of occurrence, that is, we and the chair begin to sway, and you see on the screen what is happening would be happening around you, if it would be a real earthquake, and we see just an explosive interest. and even if he talks about numbers, that is, for many of our museums. uh, well, we have attendance, let's say, a factory, where the last month has doubled in relation to what was still, let's say in february. well, just a moment in february we had 400,000 visitors in museums, and in march. well, it would seem only, next month is already almost 800. that is, exactly twice. this theatrical season can already be called unique, move, the plays canceled the anti-covid restrictions act.
