where a man with such semi- dictatorial, semi-manner powers stood over this territory, he kept exclusively on german bayonets, he did not completely control the territory, and at the same time, in many respects, the policy of the gateman was very contradictory in social, cultural and in their aspects, the germans relied on skoropadsky, did not by chance before the revolution. he belonged to the elite of the russian empire, a graduate of the page corps, guards officer of the elite cavalry regiment, he was a brave and experienced ska cavalryman, opadsky participated in the russian japanese and world war i, for which he was awarded six orders and a golden weapon with an inscription for bravery on april 30, 1918. the hetman's apprehension addressed the people with the first letter in it. he announced that the ukrainian people's republic was abolished and a new ukrainian state was proclaimed instead. however, the independent newly minted hetman state was only on paper in the field, the real power

belonged to the heads of the german garrisons and comments. in kyiv itself, the hetman and his ministers the generals eigorn and gener controlled the house of the former governor-general, in which skoropadsky settled with his whole family around the clock guarded the german crowd, even at night there was a german with a watch at the door of his bedroom. the only thing that was unlucky with the karapatian was something with a surname, because his ukrainian state, as it began to be called. here they dubbed the skoropadi. and well, whatever you call the yacht, so it will float skoropadsky's reign lasted 7 1/2 months. during this time the germans managed to withdraw from ukraine to germany millions of poods of grain, except for bread, german troops. they took away property stored in the warehouses of the former south of the western front, canvas tents, underwear, car tires, leather, shoes, and actively exported to germany any metal products, including door

handles, samovars, and copper utensils, this led to the fact that starting from may, the country was engulfed peasant uprisings, an eyewitness of these events, professor nikolai mogilyansky wrote rarely, where the germans behaved correctly in the back corners. they they took everything at an arbitrary price and behaved in a rudely cynical and defiant manner. this led to conflicts that ended very tragically, for the killed comrades, the germans brutally robbed the whole village with this sometimes artillery. frankly, the peasants, confiscating from them scott grain and in general everything that is possible is well described. in bulgakov, i issue a receipt to the russian pig that i confiscated another family from her, and so on. today, materials on the history of the ukrainian state that have come down to us are stored in the russian in the state archive, the personal archival archive of opadsky, which he took with the help of the germans to germany, burned down. in 1945, therefore, every documentary

evidence of the era of his reign is of great historical value. i have in front of me a unique historical document, these are memoirs of the highest officials of the skoropadsky government, written by them already in exile. in them, they talk in some detail and frankly about why the plan to create a ukrainian state in 1918 in the territories of the former south russian provinces completely failed. among the main reasons, by their own admission , were the following total impotence and quarrelsomeness of the creators of the new ukrainian statehood, the betrayal of the fundamental interests of the people to please, the german and austrian occupiers, who treated ukraine as a cash cow, and finally an attempt to impose on the russian population from the primitive galician nationalism, which consisted exclusively in repainting and rewriting russian signs into ukrainian. in

november 1918, after the defeat of germany in world war ii, skoropadsky lost his head support; the germans were no longer up to him on december 14, 1918 . the hetman signed a manifesto on renunciation of power and fled from kiev, according to one of the most common versions, he left. he is with the germans. having previously changed into a german uniform and bandaged his head so that no one would recognize him, the misfortune of skoropadsky. and so let's say, so the historical tragedy turned out to be that he tried to sit between different chairs on the one hand, between ukrainians and between russians between ukraine and russia between the germans and the entente, respectively, the result of the concept of this fall . skoropadsky spent the rest of his life in germany, where he enthusiastically supported hitler's rise to power. in berlin, he met with himler and contributed to the release and imprisonment of stepan's gang on april 16,

1945, 72. the summer hetman was mortally wounded in bavaria during an anglo-american air raid, his son daniel, who led the hetman movement, died in london in 1957, analyzing the failed experience creation of ukrainian statehood in the 20th century. one of the closest associates of the scarpathian ukrainian diplomat. vyacheslav lipinsky wrote that ukrainian chauvinism will bring the political idea of ​​ukraine. to death to be a patriot. it means to wish with all the strength of your soul the creation of a human community of people who will live on ukrainian soil. they dream of drowning in the dnieper most of their own fellow countrymen to be a chauvinist. this means it covers its spiritual emptiness and its inferiority, namely the betrayal of careerism.

diclassification. with fanatical exclamations about now ukraine about ridna mov was washed by ukrainians about damned muscovites and lyakhov god forbid you from this kind of nationalism, which can only bring what has already brought the ruin of ukraine evening with vladimir solovyov on our channel the premiere of the documentary film admiral kolchak life and death for russia an outstanding personality, the brightest figure in the russian history of the 20th century. hereditary russian naval officer, polar explorer, heroes of the russian-japanese and world war i , he devoted his life to serving the fatherland, but

russian news agencies. those who in this situation play the role of psychologists work at the site of the terrorist attack and reporters from local kherson tv channels for the first time in 4 months tavria company the first broadcast of the kherson tv channel tavria for the region can again quickly learn about what is happening in the region, the ukrainian leadership of the tv channel fled at the very beginning of the special operation , the employee was ordered to do the same on the first day of the special operation. i got a call from work very early and was told that i should not go to work to pack my bags and go to western ukraine. well, the first thing, of course, was for me. well , a little hmm well, it sounded unusual, and the second thing to pack your bags is to go to western ukraine what for? why did i decide to stay here, but there are also new faces for kherson residents, vlada is still in the

tenth grade, but has already begun her career as a tv presenter. i love to tell things. that is, i, in principle, like to talk, that is, they call me. mom, she says, i heard on the radio that tv presenters are needed, do you want to try? i say ok let's go. we came here, they listened to me, they say, you’ll go well to study radio and television, a transmitting center, or simply, the tv tower was one of the first objects in the city that i took under control, the russian army, by the way, without a single shot at the beginning of the special operation, the tv tower was supposed to be guarded by a whole unit of us by the ukrainian police, it was based in this room, but in 2020 it flew through the window, ball lightning burned out the room, the money allocated for repairs was dissolved and the tv tower remained without security. after that , profile specialists of the ministry of defense of russia connected to the tv broadcasting setup equipment of ukraine, which we reconfigured. for the broadcasting of russian tv channels, everything is now working as usual, but our russian tv channels broadcast only in the

kherson region. seven radio and television transmitting centers. now they are all taken under control and allow nineteen russian and two local tv channels to broadcast around the clock on the territory of the kherson zaporozhye and mykolaiv regions, in addition. in the very first days of the special operation, the broadcasting of russian radio stations was established; the names of this transmitter meet the will of radio russia in the territory of kherson and part of the nikolaev region. other russian radio stations the radio broadcast of local stations is also not silent, the presenters of radio tavria talk about their attitude to current events. now we are fighting in this territory with our enemy. and i have a chance. i have the opportunity to join this huge force and become part of something more historical for the reg. the moment the first issue of the kherson newspaper on the dnieper, though straight from the printing machine has not yet

dried. the paint today will be imprinted. first edition of 10,000 copies. printing house employees we were worried after a four-month downtime of the equipment, it could fail, but the car did not fail . uh, also this newspaper will be distributed in the region. an interesting moment, the newspaper that was published here under the ukrainian authorities was called the hryvnia. and now it's true, so you come out, that the power is really in the truth and the inhabitants of the region feel this and make their choice in favor of the russian media, all russian. i watch all all 24 channels. everybody i see they haven't shown up for a long time. well, i’ve been watching with pleasure for a long time, my tv doesn’t work, because

norm ya radio future, but i am sure that before the referendum, people will feel that we are russia, that we are just the country in which to go, that we are not a colony, that we are a country that has the right to have a say in opinion on culture. well, in a word, civilization. our russian civilization after the launch of local tv channels and the connection of russian radio stations began broadcasting, the creation of print media for the inhabitants of the region for the first time in many years becomes available, truthful information undistorted by ukrainian and western propaganda mikhail andronik alexander malyshev especially for vesti nedeli from kherson today in moscow they say goodbye to yuri connecting rod extensive infarction. the doctors were powerless the leader of the group tender may was only 48, he did not have any

honorary titles, and he was not a member solemn state concerts for the holiday. he did not speak in rhinestones, sequins and feathers, did not mow blue, but sang in simple words familiar to everyone who was in love. i can't find even a couple of words. they are debts, they will soon become a guy from an orphanage in bashkiria in january 1989 blew up the air of the morning mail of the song white roses and forever entered the hearts and

collective unconscious. wake up now the academician of the accountant of the teacher of the modern teenager and everyone will sing along the chorus that sounded at every disco and from every music archive the country knew white roses by heart. tears white roses defenseless thorns that you made me frost blue shop windows, people will decorate their holiday with you only for a few days. i leave you to die on white cold in your sleep. they dreamed of every girl who collapsed before the eyes of the country and imagined that the fragile match of black t-shirts and plaid pants from

the stage sings about love just for her with funny roses. a boy from an orphanage who collected stadiums and millions under the control of karabas this thirty-year-old world became a symbol of perestroika collapsed and the generation of witnesses and participants in gorbachev's nightmare, finally completely saw the light of those who grew up later under the new rules, they only have to accept what the elders say. perhaps this is symbolic shatunov left. when the era on the rise, which this boy stood, ended, he personified the luck of the fate of a man who grew up without parents, who was an incredible combination of global circumstances. suddenly he was at the pinnacle of success. he gave to people who, imperceptibly for themselves, lost at that time all hope for a happy occasion.

yura shatunov somehow yuri does not really fit with his boyish image several times was a guest of the program of my colleague andrei malakhov, the last time in march last year. childhood, childhood, where you are in a hurry, you haven’t played enough. i'm still with you childhood childhood. where are you staying? i want to. and i want to be teased by pigeons, natasha twitches in the photo. here, uh, the boys 35 years ago from you tried to someday u adopt. eh, i could have gone the other way. here is the story, even if not what is not the music, here were the families that came

looked at you no. this was not the case, but there were moments when strangers were completely unfamiliar to me. and they just helped me, purely humanly, purely from the heart. just fed. i don't know the names of these people. and god forbid, if life disposes, so that i happen to meet them. i'll just kneel before him and thank you from the bottom of my heart. it so happened that in the same week we remembered another voice of that era.

yes, yes, viktor tsoi would have turned 60 on june 21, but his life too broke off suddenly and without time back in the ninetieth on the track, the syllable gave way in latvia brand new. muscovite tsoi crashed into a bus at high speed according to the official version. the singer was going fishing and fell asleep at the wheel. he was only 28 in memory of tsoi on tuesday at the ice palace in st. petersburg a grand concert was held, where the kino group came out and performed their most famous songs. and viktor tsoi, on the day of his sixtieth birthday, joined the guys from the huge screen above the stage, especially

for this, the son of viktor tsoi alexander assembled a video sequence from archival recordings of video clips added modern graphics to the delight of the fans, it turned out to be a stunning multimedia concert. how does it sound, how is it arranged? what are the sounds used on the drum machine? and what would they look like? how do they move on stage? what are the images for the photo shoot? well, that is, this is a task on purpose for such a production center as some kind of californian american, which is just four guys from leningrad randomly, as it were , did everything right, tsoi's music, of course protest, then he was needed the country wanted to wake up. here is a painful oblivion, stagnation, calling his country into the future.

musician sergey bugaev afrika, who played with viktor tsoi, is sure that if he lived today, he would definitely respond to what is happening now, but we all hope that he would be, still the leader of the heroes, continued to write songs for our heroes. i recently watched some reportage from the combat zone of a special military operation. and there the guys sang songs of the blood type. i liked it very much. so, in general, i think that he would continue to supply. to the universal world market, a kind song that would unite people at

the end of the eighties - this is a crazy feeling of a new freedom of hopes, which for young people completely replaced material joys. at tsoi, it’s very clear that we have nothing to pay with. walking on our mower ended in sequins, it shakes, like shatunov . but his songs are remembered and loved so far. well, that's all for today on this say goodbye be healthy. support each other and see you next sunday.

let's open a window to the world of big politics. what are the threats on earth and in the sky? putin and lukashenka see aggressive behavior. why are we already talking about nuclear weapons, only our viewers will know the details of the most important meeting, but if putin raises his head a little in this hall, it was already warned, it would be better not to bring conflicts, what now.

the kaliningrad issue must be provided with an unconditional transit when, in times of ideal relations, it returns us to times of cold war europe tried to cut off the region. ask somewhere shifted to some european margin, politics is always the most interesting thing in politics late sunday evening. good evening, russia will soon transfer iskander-m missile systems to belarus and modernize belarusian su-25s, that you will ensure the security of the allied state. vladimir putin and alexander lukashenko agreed on this at a meeting in st. petersburg, such a decision is a response to the confrontational policy of our western neighbors and the answer is far from the only one at the brix summit which took place this week, the leaders of the states of the non-western world discussed the creation of a truly multipolar system based on the principles of

equal rights, justice and respect for each other. good evening. our program saw the nuances of each of these events, of course, it is especially worth taking a closer look at the meeting between putin and lukashenko the kremlin said that bilateral relations would be discussed, but it is clear that now not a single meeting is complete without tim of ukraine, we are listening to what is now they say the presidents, when they listened to the conversation, all the internet feeds exploded into dialogue, which brought a lot of news about the policy pursued by our neighbors, there is the leadership of poland and the leadership of the politician for confrontation. and you have enough of them. especially in ukraine recently. uh, mercenaries

are most of all politics, disgusting behavior aggressive the same, lithuania about uh, their plan to stop from russia through kaliningrad to isolate kaliningrad well, listen, but this is akin to declaring some kind of war already. this is unacceptable similar version in modern conditions, we are very concerned about the issues of training flights in the united states of america by aircraft and nato, which are training to carry nuclear warheads and nuclear warheads. this is very annoying for us, so i ask you to consider the question of a mirror answer to these things without busting. they are trained to carry nuclear warheads. oh, please help us. uh, at least to adapt the planes of our e, which we have, which can, uh, carry nuclear charges.

i'm not talking about what we will transport tomorrow, or we transport nuclear weapons there, but kidding. we can't. we remember the first year, when we were lulled, everything will be fine. everything is quiet, no one will attack, and then they were not ready for this, therefore, for us a very serious situation. this is not the first time i have put this question before you. know what you've been considering in the department of defense. i would like to hear how events will develop here. i don't hide. i raise the question of how we can be prepared for anything, even the use of the most serious weapons in order to to protect our fatherland from brest to vladivostok a. especially these workouts. you, too, they know american flights using nato partners well, if they train, then they probably think something, because why train, yes, indeed

, in europe, and the americans store the actions of nuclear tactical combat stocks, mainly atomic bombs 200 in six european countries. members of the north atlantic bloc of nato for their possible use prepared 257 aircraft and not only american, but also these us countries i mentioned outside in europe and in russia, not a single base. so you said that you could answer in a mirror. yes, you can, but you and i probably shouldn’t even answer like a mirror, there’s no need, but i completely agree with you that they will take care of unconditionally ensuring our security of the union state. and maybe other countries. we are obliged simply, therefore, i propose the following for the armament of the belarusian

army are large enough for a grouping of su-25 aircraft. they could match as follows to equip. truth. this modernization should be carried out on aviation. in russia, but we will agree with you on how to do this and start training the flight crew accordingly, what usually falls into the frame. but if you raise your head a little, you will see much more. the troyan hall of the konstantinovsky palace is an image of ancient battles here and an honest fight and stab in the back remember the history putin called in the same hall a few years ago, talking to western journalists, and through them talking quite west. if we look at the wall for frescoes. here up here. well, here is the same thing around the warrior. unfortunately, it has always been like this, though behind all conflicts there has always been peace and it would be better

not to bring it to conflicts. we should just keep in mind, you know? what world are we living in? what threats and dangers await us if we do not keep this fiery serpent under control, if we release it, god forbid, out of the bottle. this can lead to global catastrophes, but all these years the west has only increased the shaking of weapons. right at the russian borders, diligently turns even historically native ukraine into enemies of russia bastion fights in moscow for minsk an issue so important that lukashenka made notes by hand in frequent questions that i want to discuss with you in the field of economy, as well as issues related to defense. we will deliver within the next few months. e of belarus tactical missile systems from concern-m, which, as you know, can be used both ballistically and cruise missiles, and e, as usual,

and nuclear performance. i propose to instruct the ministry of defense and the chief of the states general to work out all the details related to this jointness. lukashenka was in russia for 3 days and every day he communicated with putin behind closed doors, and obviously on these topics there were already public conversations on saturday. there is hardly anything that putin does not know about the relations between the two countries, but he is still preparing for the meeting. lukashenka is already on the territory of the konstantinovsky palace, the presidential protocol service is synchronizing the meeting of the leaders. in the hall, where she should negotiate. with lukashenka, putin looks out the window. beautiful panoramic views now, which have also become political, the headquarters of gazprom is simply perfectly visible from the windows of

the konstantinovsky palace, in which putin lukashenko conducts his negotiations, the global energy crisis provoked by the west of russia and belarus meet with their warm light. and what is very important with your food. well, it didn't start right away. later, when the journalists left, putin also used his documents prepared for the meeting. and it was possible to hear what we are talking about western sanctions against a fertilizer company, but russia and belarus are the largest producers for the next

year, russian ships are forbidden to enter ports and at the same time shout advancing famine and about ukrainian grain, which is supposedly impossible to withdraw, although it has long been proposed the best option, just through belarus is the easiest and most, because from there immediately to the baltic port to the baltic sea and further to any point. yes, but for this it is necessary to remove sanctions from belarus. this is not our question. in in any case, the president of belarus is exactly like that. if someone wants to solve the problem, if it exists at all, ukrainian export. right, please, the easiest way through belarus, no one interferes with the famine into which the west is pushing the world key theme and brix summit french queen marie antoinetti is credited with looking out of

her palace window at a crowd of hungry, striking citizens. she said indifferently, when but if they have no bread, let them eat cakes. it is with such cynicism that some western countries approach to questions of this kind, the rise in food prices around the world is the result of undisguised western selfishness. during the pandemic, they didn’t print money, they distributed it in their countries in rich countries, and like a vacuum cleaner from the world market they began to rake up all food products, this is the result, sad for the world food security, the money supply in the united states grew by 5.9 trillion. this is an unprecedented work of the reporting machine financial power and proceeded from the fact that the world currency, and it, as usual, as in the old days, will dissolve throughout the global economy, and in the states it will be invisible. it turned out that this is not the case, and in fact, decent people. hmm, there are such people in the states too

. here's the finance minister, recently said that uh, they made a mistake, a big mistake. the united states did it thinking that the whole world would suddenly stop communicating with russia and putin, these shots from washington and brussels should be considered more carefully. leaders of half of humanity russia china india brazil south africa remotely as if raising a toast with souvenir mugs proven special relationship time. we started building not in connection with the latest events, the events of recent years or months, we did and are doing this, because in asia in china, the creation of new centers for the development of the world was clearly indicated, everyone understands this. everyone sees it, they know it, they are the absolute leaders. the multipolarity of the world is inevitable. and those who cling to their imaginary global leadership.

by all means commits a colossal mistake, it is a mistake that will cost dearly. i do n't have any doubts. this is no threat. just the fact of life will happen. this is our neighbor and traditional partner. just like india , you are well aware that we have very close partnerships with india for a long time and i believe that the prospects for, first of all, economic cooperation, our very large approaches to the main problems between us are very close, or as a diplomat, they say, they practically coincide the world is very diverse. it is not limited only to the g8 countries, the geometry of international relations is much more complicated than uh, the european union or the g8 or renat is such a concept in africa big five are the five largest representatives of the animal world of africa. brix

also consists of five countries. as i said, the contribution to the world economy is very noticeable and over the years, brix has attracted more and more attention and caused growing jealousy . after the change of leadership speculates the right brix or not the right brix ah, well- known friction between india and china these problems. if there are, how serious are they? can a shave overcome them, some of our partners are always trying to find uh problems, whatever we do, whatever we do, we have good uh russian people proverb uh hmm when uh in someone else's glaze, and in our own logs do not notice. uh, there are always problems everywhere and between all countries, moreover, uh, this meeting.

to be honest, i was pleased, because for the first time i saw a real interest in the development of relations among all the participants in this process. yes, the briks organization did not allow itself to be sharp crude political statements, unlike western ones. not no, but simply painstakingly increased economic cooperation all these years. there is an opinion that in the conditions of growing global polarization it is not very clear. and in general , sometimes there is a statement that brix is ​​remembered only when the leaders gather at their summits and do not agree with what they remember, only then this role itself passes and the importance of brix will certainly grow and dear colleagues. you look at what is happening in the economy. well , look at the simple numbers brix bypassed the strange sevens a next year. and the brix will have a plus of 50 trillion dollars, who can ignore this? this reality is an essential factor in world affairs, and it will grow all the time. it

comes naturally. nobody is driving anyone anywhere. this is an extremely important thing. why because all the participants in this process feel an objective need for cooperation? this is especially true of the need to create more democratic e principles and build the world economy, and now is the moment of the most acute world political crisis. none of the leaders refused fathers. no one said this to themselves sick, and the volume of trade soared, the trade turnover of the russian federation with the state of the five increased by 38% to $ 45 billion , because in brix everyone's voice is important, and this manifests itself even in technical moments, when it turned out that the head of india was turned off microphone, then at first putin gestured to the absence of sound. immediately, the head of south africa began to point his fingers at the headphones, the president of brazil tried, as if to stop his colleague. it's important to hear

arrival, the chairman of the summit, the leader of china, nevertheless asked to adjust the sound, everything was left and the connection was in order, and then it turned out. why didn't the example of india hear anything? he put on the earpiece only after his performance. much better is a community in which countries want to hear each other, the brix leaders insist, than a community in which there is one hegemon hegemon who also wants to replace the un rules with some kind of order based on the rules of what rules who invented these rules, it is not clear what for such nonsense, there are only one rules that must be observed, this international public law. and if someone came up with these rules for themselves in order to impose them on other countries. they will never work. this is an obvious thing. you need to live not according to some

rules invented by someone, but within the framework of international law, of course, international crises. now it seems they are washing everything down with themselves, but the more important it is the internal issues of russia, readiness for 5 minutes. even our ancestors said, it’s good for someone who is in his house and such people in the country should become much larger, although the rate of construction in recent years has already been higher than the soviet one. well, without any exaggeration, more than 92 million m² of jelly was put into operation, and today we have reached the international pace of construction. yes, about now in the world they are building 0.5-07.06 m per person. we have already reached there, too, to 06 m per person per year, but we must build zero eight meters fell asleep at the meeting, he says very mildly, he estimates the impressive figure of the program at 163 million rubles. the entire gross product of the entire country is then

less, but the governors urged the ministry of finance to allocate money. on their programs of emotion. anton siluanov's loans are to be repaid in 15 years. now the governors are collecting loans. nobody knows what will happen in 15 years. that's because they will come. uh, well, god forbid, if they work, of course, for a period. but how will they return at the expense of what resources? yes? uh, it means that the reaction, nagrandra vorobyov, is not being considered now, how will they return at the expense of what resources? yes, about the fact that no one thinks that in 10-15 years, but i think anton gennadievich got excited and our today - this meeting is dedicated precisely to looking beyond the horizon, the state is going to deal more closely with the topic of housing and communal services in today's conditions - this is an excellent load of factories to consolidate to attract solid investments here. their volume should be multiplied. at the same time, all metal

equipment, domestic equipment and materials are produced in the country; we will load the construction and related industries; we will create jobs, and for years to come, the task is extremely clear to reduce wear utility networks. yes, the task is clear, what will happen in 10-15 years to 10-15 years. they will fly by at such a speed that i can say from my own experience that you will blink. and now another 10 years have passed. and pavel, by the way, many noticed that putin did not have his famous cup. but as i understand it, this is due to the fact that at the brix summit, all the leaders had cups made in the same style, these are branded cups of brix, so there is no need to worry. that famous atak famous cup that you showed the world, it remains a favorite way, this is hardly cause for excitement, but observation. this, of course, is not a blockade, but control, something like this european

politicians describe the situation in which they have been in the leningrad region for a week now. moscow with retaliatory measures is in no hurry to hope that common sense will prevail and the transit will be restored, according to international law. well, how useful, now, when all the masks have been thrown off, they remember that the west had previously stated how the issue of transit in the kaliningrad region was generally resolved 18 years ago, because then relations between russia and the european union were almost ideal, and yet, when the european union absorbed lithuania and poland, the european bureaucrats, in fact , began to offer moscow good relations with us. but let the citizens of russia apply for schengen visas for trips to the kaliningrad region and it constantly sounded from high tribunes, but we have good relations in moscow, there is nothing to worry about. it's not against you. well, it's just that the necessary visas, but it's hard to even imagine what position

kaliningrad would be in now if then putin listened to these speeches, he did not listen. an unconditional transit between kaliningrad and other parts of the russian federation must be ensured. our partners have not stopped the roadside of european politics. this is absolutely out of the blue. at the beginning of the 2000s, when russia still owed the west hundreds of billions of dollars , such questions were raised in direct lines with putin about our kaliningrad region. we often have rumors that the hmm area seems to be sold for debts, since there were large loans from german banks have a completely unexpected posing of the

question to anyone who wants such a development of events. i'd love to be right in front of the camera. and i can’t do it with all my upbringing, which means that it’s an absolutely impossible thing, there’s not even anything to talk about, it can’t even come to mind. i'm actually hearing about this for the first time. ah, but there are problems in the kaliningrad region. there are, and they can become aggravated in connection with the forthcoming accession e of lithuania and poland to the european community, e, then kaliningrad turns out to be like it would be an enclave with a completely territory, uh, which will surround the countries of the european union, countries for their independence joyfully lost their independence, joining the european union and millions of people close to russians ended up in the schengen zone, but relations between russia and the eu, then almost cloudless in an interview with the most popular

french journalist on trick pavre darvor on the tf-1 tv channel, putin then says how russia perceives what is happening is worried about some things. e, for example, e. we often hear e about the need to get rid of the dividing lines, but we don’t want new dividing lines to appear, our citizens could freely travel visa-free in the state of central and eastern europe now and this will be deprived of it. about russia, sometimes one gets the impression that russia is being shifted somewhere to some margin of european politics at the same time, we hear all the time that everyone wants to, uh, develop relations with russia and at the same time the same eu officials are permanent everywhere, talking about human rights. they suddenly start openly delaying the solution of the issue that has arisen by transit in the kaliningrad region from other regions of russia putin lies through lithuania and now she is members of the european union it was a very difficult job and i must honestly tell you, i

still don’t understand why what we have sought from our partners is an elementary matter. it is absolutely elementary to ensure the unhindered passage of russian citizens from one of our territories to another. to unfortunately to answer that we are not able to establish business cooperation on this issue with the european union. we have repeatedly returned to this topic, all of us, and hmm, the leadership of the european union and russia understand the acuteness of the problem, which is constantly approaching and approaching one million 300 people who live in the kaliningrad region. we can't fence them off. uh, fence and keep locked up there. it will be not only our problem, but also the problem of the european union. how important and useful it is now to listen to what the leaders said then new members of the european union and what

has long been promised in hasans european in greed, joining the european union, we do not want to turn our backs on our eastern ones. not a single citizen of russia and ukraine or belarus should feel to neighbors that poland has turned its back on them and so from all the rostrums the european union wants to be russia open expansion of the european union is not to the detriment of russia, it is good, but when it comes down to it, it suddenly turns out that the eu would like the russians began to receive visas for trips to kaliningrad the logic of the european bureaucrats is simple, well, what, lithuania is now members of the european union, we are offered solutions that, in essence, will mean only one right of russians to freely communicate with their relatives living in one or another. e parts of the country. this right will depend on the decision of a foreign state today, when the funeral of the cold war has already taken place, the return to such approaches is absolutely incomprehensible from the solution

of this issue affecting the vital interests of russians, without exaggeration depends, how it will be develop our relations with the european union as a whole and on many other issues. for us, this a is the absolute criterion of our quality of our interaction, the litmus test of our interaction. we have no right not to pay attention, even to the observance of elementary human rights today, if we do not solve these problems in time, then these fundamental foundations of today's civilized community will be tested. it is not important to remember what time it was then, after the collapse of the union, russia trusted the west, offered to build a common house the european union promised to gradually abolish visas with russia altogether, i will say frankly in the eyes of ordinary russians the current state of affairs. otherwise like new. in this case, the schengen wall is not perceived. summer

will be exciting will be exciting. summer will not be boring movies series documentaries cartoons

but these hints of words of requests, as if they had not heard, and on the issue of kaliningrad, russia was already forced to recall the recent european past and move on to harsher formulations. the simplest solution is to introduce an order that existed between west berlin and the rest of the federal republic of germany in the old days, which was introduced in the mid-seventies even then at the height of the cold war. a solution has been found, of course, it may not be the best solution, because it takes us back to

the cold war. but what we hear today as a possible solution is worse than the solutions that were found in the middle, the seventies, they are worse, because, in fact, they warm up the sovereign territory of the russian federation, the request is simple in person, not through the apparatus. yours, and personally get acquainted with this problem. i think that no one doubts a. the fact that it was russia, the soviet union, and later russia that made a decisive contribution to overcoming the split of europe, the solution to the problem of dismantling the berlin wall, in the literal and figurative sense of the word, therefore, of course, we have the right to count that a when at a sufficiently high level. in western capitals, we hear the thesis about the need to create a europe without dividing lines. this concerns and russia should be unconditionally secured and transit between kaliningrad and other parts of the

russian federation is hard to imagine how another provision could comply with the fundamental principle and rules set out in the whole complex hmm in human rights documents it is difficult to imagine that a person living in moscow in st. petersburg smolensk, uh, or yakutsk, for example, will not be able to attend the funeral of one of his relatives will not be able to visit the cemetery in his relatives will not be able to come to the wedding, or simply come to visit without contacting the consular offices of another state and it is not yet known how one or another official of this consular office will look at the request of a russian citizen to visit his relatives. this is absolutely out of the blue. uh,

we talked about this directly and honestly with our partners, nothing but political will is needed for a mutually acceptable solution to this issue. i hope that we will show this will from both sides manifested lump policies. then in europe there was still a time of experienced and independent leaders jacques chirac and gerschroeder, who called a spade a spade, which the european bureaucrats of russia offer cannot be an acceptable solution that would be humiliating for russia, which would trample on the interests and rights of the state, the right of the people, the dignity of the german people the government and mr. federation took a very constructive position regarding the solution of one of the key issues of interaction with the european union. at the moment, a very sensitive issue for us life support of the kaliningrad region in connection with the upcoming enlargement of the european union and i want for this, mr. from the federal years, it is important to remember

what position it took then, belarus, i publicly conclude that belarus will always take an absolutely pro-russian position in solving the kaliningrad problems, then russia and the european union reached a clear agreement , which is still in force now under what conditions is the transit of passengers and goods in the kaliningrad region for us this is an acute problem and we are satisfied the results achieved have resolved the issue of train travel through lithuania; schengen visas are not needed; other issues have been resolved, one of the problems that we still have not fully resolved. this is a cargo transit to kaliningrad. but this morning, the chairman of the customs committee of russia reported to me that the fundamental issues, as he believes, are still voted on in this commission, if the owner then managed to prevent russia from building a new wall in europe that the west wanted to start literally alive. but new attempts, whether it be the deployment

of pro systems where they promised never to build or the expansion of nato to where they promised never to expand, actively continued, no one stopped. this is the same, the main problem. uh, today's international relations, our partners have not stopped, they have decided that they are the winners, that they are now an empire. and all the rest of the rebels need to be squeezed. that's the problem, they didn't stop building walls, despite all our attempts and, uh, and gestures. we work together without i have any dividing lines in europe as a whole , in the near future the situation around the kaliningrad region will become final. it is clear whether the european union is ready to carry out at least something of what it once signed and because of this moscow will proceed. yes, it's so interesting. let's say the situation is polite, because now they seem to have begun to sound in europe.
