and why the shopping center was open at the time of the siren, people were not expelled from it. and why was it open at all, in principle, where the military is located. all forces to the east, the north atlantic alliance has declared russia an adversary and the main threat is already preparing steps to transfer additional troops to its eastern flank, that is, to our borders. actually. this is one of the main topics of the ongoing alliance themselves in madrid , e.g., dialogue with russia is no longer discussed, said on the eve of the nato secretary general, jens, stoltenberg, the course of expansion, clearly indicated, it is necessary to strengthen its ordinary battalion groups in poland and the baltic countries . uh, bring them up to brigade level. this is only the first stage of the plan to create a command structure for an armaments depot and fuel to supply new equipment. in general, a full-fledged preparation for a possible conflict, and, in addition, the alliance is going to increase the size of its forces rapid response in europe from 40,000 to

300 and to train the so-called special detached forces created for combat operations in specific countries. it is not yet specified what calls are being made to finance the founding acts in nato-russia relations of 1997, and it spells out a restriction on the development of military experts by the alliance in eastern europe. however, they note that nato has not observed the points of this document for a long time. the european press discussed another point of the new of the nato strategy of the one in which russia is named the main danger in the document, they are allegedly going to make uh hmm the main mission of the alliance quote. uh, the protection of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the allied countries, but the specifics. again , for the time being, all the final theses will be announced on the final day tomorrow. well, the federation council has already reacted in moscow. olga said that i would quote again. uh, in this way the document draws the member states into the new war and actually establishes an offensive strategy

alliance. we will find out the details from our european correspondent regina sevastyanova and she joins the example of the live broadcast. regina greetings what other decisions were made in the spanish capital, what statements were made? hello well, at the moment, perhaps, the central statement was that the leaders of the nato member countries approved the final declaration, which states that the new strategy for the next 10 years implies that russia is the main threat to international security about this in in particular, said the secretary general nato jens, stoltenberg. today, nato leaders approved a new strategic concept for the alliance, which has already been published. it is very different from the 2010 agreements, it is clear that russia poses the direct and most significant threat to our security. we also mention china in the document as a challenge to our security interests and values. in 2010, when the relevant documents were adopted, russia was named a

partner, and china was not mentioned there, in general, the current version of the document refers in particular to that russia seeks to establish spheres of influence of direct control through coercion, subversion , aggression and annexation. these are quotes. it uses conventional cybernetic hybrid weapons against us and our partners. the temnata themselves emphasize that this document was adopted against the backdrop of the crisis in ukraine and, as the leaders note, to some extent this is, uh, a consequence of this situation. in particular, oleksandr daikova, prime minister of belgium, said a little earlier that nato had already made it clear to the president of ukraine volodymyr zelensky that he will support ukraine as much as necessary and, according to nato, this crisis should be resolved on the battlefield. wizard, we already had the opportunity to talk with president zelensky, it is very important to continue talking with him. we have made it clear that the war can only be won on the battlefield, and we

must continue to support president zelensky and the people of ukraine so that they can win on the battlefield. the media agree with alexandre decaux , they, like the belgian example, call the current summit historical and say that nato is regaining europe. and in the declaration themselves, which have already been published, it is said that the north atlantic alliance officially invited sweden to finland to join the alliance, stoltenberg confirmed this fact. nato leaders today made a historic decision to invite sweden to finland to become part of the north atlantic alliance, this was facilitated by the agreements reached by these countries with turkey. i want to thank the participants in these negotiations for responding to our call and being able to to resolve differences, the memorandum was signed between the countries the day before, when turkey announced that it was withdrawing the right to veto sweden and

finland's entry into the alliance. at the same time, turkey has already confirmed today that it is waiting for the extradition of 33 ethio pkk members from finland and intends to later remind helsinki of this . in this, swedish prime minister magdalena anderson announced that the kingdom is not issued, and their subordinates at the moment. how this dialogue will develop is, of course, incomprehensible by nato's response to the expansion situation, this was discussed on the eve of the summit and this is one of the key points in the discussion of the leaders of the countries included in the blog, in particular, the president of the united states joe biden has already made the declaration expected from him regarding his own strengthening on territory of europe today i announce that the united states will strengthen its military position in europe in response to the changing situation in the region security, and strengthen our collective

security together with our allies. we are going to ensure that nato can deal with threats from all directions on land, in the air and at sea. earlier, nato announced that they would increase their personnel in europe from 40,000 people to 300,000 people yuri da regina thank you, we are following the nato summit in madrid, i remind you , our european correspondent regina sevastyanova was in direct contact now new personnel from ashgabat kurbangulyvich dear friends of the heads of state russia has consistently advocated deepening partnerships between the caspian five in security policy in the economy and nature conservation areas, as well as for numerous e on

numerous aspects of the humanitarian trip, while we are convinced that rigorous research is the key to the prosperity of our common region , the principles that are laid down in the convention on the legal status of the caspian sea, the convention fixes the main countries in the caspian five are responsible to present and future generations for the preservation and sustainable development of the region. among the key tasks of the five, we certainly consider the further expansion of regional trade, investment ties, deepening, mutually beneficial industrial and high-tech operations, i note that the volume of russian trade with the caspian countries is constantly growing, so in 2021, trade increased by more than a third of 35%, made 34 billion dollars in january april of this year. he

added another 12 and a half percent. in that in this context, a significant role is given to the caspian economic forum, created on the initiative of the respected urbangulomerik, kulievich, berdimuhamedov, whom we are glad to congratulate today on yuri. the first such event took place in 2019 at that time, and it is planned to hold a second forum in the fall in moscow. i am grateful to my colleagues for their support. of this proposal , i note that the five have great opportunities for interaction in the energy sector, agreements on joint operation located in the caspian sea are already being implemented oil and gas fields. this makes it possible to use the natural resources of the caspian sea reasonably and efficiently, respecting the interests of the parties, both in traditional and innovative alternative sectors. energy, a lot in our

opinion. to be done to improve the transport and logistics architecture of the region. first of all, we are talking about building an international north-south transport corridor. colleagues have already talked about this here. i fully share these approaches. this is a truly large-scale project of a transport artery with a length of 7.200 km from st. petersburg to the ports of iran and india, the early launch of this corridor is intended to be facilitated by the entry into force last year of an agreement between the caspian states on cooperation in the field of transport, which is aimed at turning the caspian sea region into a major international logistics hub, and i see , how this direction is actively developing in kazakhstan in azerbaijan here e. hmm, we, on the russian side , also need to make a vigorous effort in this direction, and i want you to know that russia has accepted and

a strategy is being implemented for the development of national seaports in the caspian basin, as well as rail and road approaches to them until 2030. we are expanding to the caspis, paying special attention to the ports, astrakhan a la and makhachkala. in addition to the economy, another important area is strengthening cooperation between our five countries on the topic of environmental safety, preserving the caspian and its living marine resources. just now , the president of kazakhstan spoke about this in the presidents of azerbaijan spoke now and in a closed format in a narrow format fully share the concern, and it would be advisable to increase joint capabilities for prompt response to natural man-made events and phenomena that can negatively affect the life and well-being of people in the region, among them the milene

reservoir, a sharp reduction sturgeon species in this regard. i would like to emphasize that russia is striving to make a significant contribution to solving problems related to the conservation of biodiversity in the caspian in particular, annually we release up to 40 million pieces of young into the caspian sea, and thanks to what sisters? 80% of the so-called russian sturgeon today comes from russian hatcheries. in addition, projects are being successfully implemented to protect marine mammals and birds, to clean sea water from plastic, and many others. we believe that in order to more effectively save the fragile marine ecosystem , it is necessary to complete the process of formation of an appropriate legal framework, the basis of which is the framework convention on the protection marine environment of the caspian sea. the so-called tehran convention of 2003. in this regard

, we suggest thinking about convening a conference of the parties to this convention in the near future. we also advocate speeding up the entry into force of documents already signed in such important areas as the prevention of maritime incidents in the fight against terrorism and organized crime. it would be very useful to speed up work on the draft new pentalateral agreements on security cooperation that are at the stage of being agreed. mriya sailing search and rescue at sea scientific research about it. and what do they mean by the pilot project to bring together the masterpieces of carpet weaving, which all our countries are proud of and hold them in the form of a traveling exhibition or festival throughout the region, in turn , allies of russian photographers propose to hold the

caspian cinema room. this is also a useful idea. i think that it would be possible to support and, of course, the development of regional tourism should be intensified, which will certainly contribute to rapprochement. the peoples of our countries, for example in the astrakhan region next year will be put into operation. the first large cruise liner pyotr on kaspi to launch themed cruises on the caspian sea will provide an opportunity to get to know the rich historical traditions and heritage better. uh, when the caspian states visit the sights to take part in cultural and educational outreach activities, dear colleagues conclusion. he would like to emphasize the sustainable development of the caspian region. raising the standard of living. these were shots from ashgabat vladimir putin received.
