hello, this is the football of russia, our program in football. we have one of the farthest field trips, and we are in the crimea in evpatoria and we are trying to understand the state of crimean football today, what has it come to? what does yuri count on and how will he continue to live when you are driving along the taurida, when you find yourself on the cross land, then you find yourself in a clash of two worlds. here are the former post-soviet years and well in time it can be seen in architecture. it can be seen in manifestations. well, some businesses have become. probably it can be seen in everything, but it does not apply to football, crimean football is long-suffering about which so much has been said in recent years and so much has not been said, where is it now, what worlds clash there, what difficulties, what situations, at some point? well i think you are right here, indeed. here i am thinking about your questions. in which one? yes, that is, from two e? stasiyah today is the crimean football, and he

really got stuck too. here, somewhere between the two, probably, first of all, e football civilizations - this is the football federation of ukraine, as it was once called, and e russian football union here. today we are between the two, first of all, these football worlds and there is from above. yes, that is, as it probably looks from above, yes, that is, the gods, yes, this is uefa and here you need to clearly understand that, unfortunately , we will not get anywhere from the charter and the principles that are laid down in the uefa charter, where it clearly states one federation must let go, the second federation must accept the territory that has withdrawn from one jurisdiction. that's all and most important. what does this recognize not as the borders of the state, but precisely the un yes organization of the united nations, that's what the charter says today. and now, unfortunately, uh, probably we thought in

the fourteenth year that we would not get stuck anywhere and very quickly and hmm quickly our three football teams joined the russian football union, and began to play in the south zone of the second league yes, but, unfortunately, came december, yes, that is, uefa and its form, which i want to say until today, it has not been corrected or changed. there were six items. we know them all by heart crimeans. yes, because it first of all, it concerns us. today, crimean football has no right not to play in russian in any competition under the auspices of the russian football union to accept more than one team, officially belonging to the russian football union. well, and, accordingly, in ukraine with the ukrainians. we, too, cannot but have the right to play, because all the restrictions that have been made today for the aggressor country, then it was peace. all sorts of different

restrictions, uh, that is, we are physically there, just we can’t go, yes, that is, we will continue to talk, he will always be. uh, it's to remind us that uefa said that, unfortunately. uh, we are not accepted there and they think that we are some kind of traitors in relation to ukrainian football. but, although we were all one family, and we always say that, well, politics should not interfere in sports and football in particular, but unfortunately, today we also e-football exists. there are a huge number today for 8 years of sports grounds. this must be recognized, because at the moment in 1914, we had two artificial full-size football fields, only two today there are more than 25 of them. but there i'm afraid to lie, because every 2 months something is rented, that is. well, at the beginning of the year there were more, 25. that is, this is what it is. that professional football, for which we are responsible and which

has already done more than 200 small playgrounds. here is a logical question, like any business, if professional football is your business, where does the money come from? because uefa, as i understand it, is not can transfer money even to whom he owes especially in today's not a simple financial banking history, but from the rfu i don't know whether you receive money or not, probably not either, no, yes, crimea is getting richer. krom is becoming, shall we say, a more modern business environment, but still professional clubs. the crimean championship is an expense. who pays, so the first yes? that is, here i want a lot of speculation that uefa really was. uh, you know, even our colleagues. uh, blown up lakovich said that he doesn't remember, that uefa did not comply with the order of the executive committee. well , yes, what's not done. and today , the instruction or decision of the uefa executive committee where

a million euros were allocated for the crimean football union and a million euros for uh was so clear. now i will try to remember for the federation unrecognized and on the territory. or rather, not that they are not recognized, but the crimean federation on the territory of kherson, a million was also allocated for them, but, unfortunately, they could not transfer this money. not there for us. well, that is, not e crimean the federation in kherson is not the crimean football union, and these 2 million are still on the accounts of uefa for the entire time that the crimean football union and, accordingly, crimean football has existed, since the fourteenth year. we received about 500 soccer balls, which were distributed to the children. well, and, accordingly, that's all the help that was from uefa, they hear us, but, probably, no more, yes, that is, unfortunately , some help. eh, there is no such material

. yes hmm come into our position with us talk to us discuss, but here is some tangible help. unfortunately, no, and all this infrastructure that has been made during this time was done with the state money of the russian federation under various programs here and the ministry of agriculture. yes, that is, this stadium is a village under such a program, two stadiums were built. yes, a huge amount of help from the moscow city hall, they allocated funds for sports grounds and small ones. yes , multifunctional football fields, not only this site, but also the ministry of sports, six full-size football fields according to the program. e up to 21 years old. we have was built, and here are all those football fields that are being made; they are all practically most of them for public money, of course. there are other investors. yes, uh, private and corporate ones that did, but if we compare, then, of course

, it’s more public money from various departments in the first place. look here. yes, we give interviews on the territory of the football academy, yevpatoria, a stunning building, several fields, infrastructure, and even this press center is modern, where we are in the premier league not all clubs in the russian premier league. there are such infrastructural conditions. kids, i don't know, but probably not one team. yes, not a dozen. you bring them to some age limit or bring them to some age limit. and what's next? where is your planning horizon and what to do with these children who cannot participate in children's competitions, as i understand it, they do not participate in the children's football league except for the crimean, here's how to deal with it, yes, how long to wait a year, two or three, or just admit that's all, right? we are 10 20-30 years old. must brew in your own cauldron for

that matter. here you clearly know how clearly the question-answer. i can’t answer, i can say one thing, that probably 2 years ago, when sergei valerievich aksyonov and i asked the president, and the possibility of opening this academy. we honestly didn't think about it. we're what you say, we're on a five-year plan. yes, it was just the fifth anniversary of the entry of crimea into the russian federation, uh, the public met with the president in a small narrow circle and i was there and now, we were preparing a question to the president, unfortunately, we were not able to ask a question live, but when leaving the president clearly said, sergey valeriychu i know the problem, i know the problem. get a paper where everything is clearly written. we received a paper and there was to assist in the implementation of this project. thank you so much for this president. and, of course, sergei valeryevich aksyonov, because he was at the origins of this academy. that's when we

asked the question. that's how you say we have, well, probably m-m for the football year. yes football, that is there are gifted children, and we can, probably, as in any region, yes, and the climatic conditions and the coaching privatization team. everything is there, yes, only a condition is needed, because i repeat once again, never in soviet times, not in ukrainian later, there was an academy in crimea, only an sdushor and then the olympic reserve school appeared. crimea always. well, i don’t want to say yes, that is, it’s rude there, but we always sent our gifted children either to dnepropetrovsk or donetsk yes, that is, with that yes, that is there were four jurisprudence and there were no academies in the soviet union. and it was mmm, and boarding schools. that was the voroshilograd boarding school, where there are many, that is, today it is lugansk, yes, that is, as if i were a young football player and always

played. it was the kyiv boarding school. it was the lviv internet. and kharkovsky here are three boarding schools. where nu was getting ready. well, probably the best and most gifted, and we gave all the gifted kids in our football games there and here. we were heard and crimea got the opportunity to make a football academy honestly. the first year was unbelievable. honestly, yes, that is, yes, we have prepared the infrastructure. uh, we practically had all the coaches of a certain level, as required by the rfu, but in all the nuances that you are now talking about, we certainly could not, that is, assume. yes, just like with the girls, let's say one nuance is that the girls should live separately in the building. well, unfortunately we didn't have it. yes, that is, we also planned girls and girls. we now live in a different place. well, we didn’t know such nuances, but we considered, as our colleagues from uefa say step bst here, let's first, then the second. today we

faced 2 years of the academy today, uh, there are four pupils who were involved in the russian national teams. i think that for the crimean football in 2 years. this is already a pretty good result in various ways. today two have settled down, i don't want to say their names there. i think a little later, yes, that is, everyone will know about them. god forbid that the guys progress further and you are forced to pupils when they reach a certain age simply delegate to give other academies without reference to the crimea. this is the most important thing. yes, i think that any teacher, any trainer, any researcher of the cat will understand this. he prepares and gives a part of himself to his student, but his name does not appear anywhere. well , at least that's probably it. it's just unfair and , well, probably unethical. yes, because these are the basics that he put in, we understand that after a certain moment. eh, you can only develop

under certain conditions. it must be an environment that is on the edge. and well, probably, m-m large, yes, that is, loads of big, uh, and best football players together. yes, that is, because we all clearly understand that there is sport. and there is physical education. so we have always been taught that sport is the achievement of high sports results. e. well, probably, at the limit of the body's capabilities. here also here. yes, if you paraphrase or turn it all into football, that is, you need to create conditions where the maximum load, where hmm, a young footballer is constantly progressing, but if he wins 140 or there 7:0, unfortunately, he will, well, well hit a little hard. uh, wednesday is not enough for him. yes, that is, as once traveling abroad. we already feel that there is another resistance. this is understandable, but for children yes, you

just explained, but as for adult teams, as for not even the players, but the full complicity of the full-fledged attraction of professional crimean football and to the uefa russian football family, yes, here, e in sleepy was the thinking of european officials, including football, anyway, they should have understood this tough position, crimea is ours and this what will not change, but you still have to find some option, moreover, when the special operation began, it also became clear that a lot of geopolitical things, including in sports, would also change. and now you can read the news of the last weeks of the month and there is constantly sports news and this topic is raised crimean clubs will enter the rfu crimean clubs will enter the wfm. yes, in the second league , uh, some hotheads even say that it is necessary to include three leagues. although, probably, well, even for everyone. if it turns on, then opportunities today

competition is still there. well, things a fair difference in the class of sports will be serious, but still here you and the rfu are the relationship with the academy with club football with adult football. here in what stage in what dynamics? well, probably, as a good advisory consultative m-m communication in the first place, yes, that is, we use techniques. we can, uh, improve the skills of our coaches on the territory. uh, unfortunately, it sounds trite, but the mainland of russia, because before that we didn’t allowed, but then uefa allowed to send ours. well, every 3 years they have to confirm those licenses, yes, that is, well, classic, yes, that is, this is probably in any activity, and here we were allowed to go to krasnodar and confirm our licenses, which were obtained in the ukrainian e-football federation because, well, up to a certain point, everyone received it there. that's probably more. we ask somewhere. we

ask somewhere. is it possible from some periodicity? yes, that is, but we understand all that if we do not participate in official tournaments, where is what i have already said, where are they going. if they had hesitated for the title, then, probably, nothing would happen. that is, today we can only participate in commercial tournaments. once again i repeat commercial tournaments that are not held by the rfu i mean, well, let's say, uh, some cap is holding there. yes, that is, here is the maker's kapp itself. yes, sponsorship does not matter, but where is the rfu, yes, that is, there we do not have the right, respectively. we clearly understand, uh, in these competitions they don’t give ranks, they don’t give guys title of trainers. well, and, accordingly, goes there. well, probably still not the top ten teams, because, well, football is connected, like any sport, with injuries. and why take the guys to the tournament? well, let's say not the highest category, if everything is scheduled

and the highest category is enough. here we are there today, but for us it's like a sip. yes, that is, we just recently went to tolyatti, yes, and to kazan to participate in such a tournament, and there we saw at least one team that represents the elite. yes, that is, children's football, it's a ruby. well that is, the academy of rubin and hemp in togliatti and the wings of the soviets, yes, that is, they arrived there, alania, that’s where we felt ourselves for the first time. well, at least side by side and how did you perform? uh, you know all, if you lost, then one two? well, of course, there are small ones, it was difficult, because here we lost more to rostov, but with all the other guys we either won or by one ball, lost somewhere. yes, that is, well, that is, this is a normal good fight, and the eighth and ninth at the level of the krasnodar territory, almost everything they win and even beat the kuban academy , we ourselves invent, well, some kind of competitions and

constantly ask. yes, colleagues can come without harming you, we understand this, because, uh, we have probably got used to this for 8 years and our leaders, that is, at various levels, say yes, that is, we are used to it. what we do not have in the sanctions of those banks you see, yes, when arriving those retailers who are present on the rest . yes, somehow we have already got used to it, but, uh, in football, it's very difficult. yes, and most importantly yes, that is, it’s very hard for my mother to explain why her child at the age of 14 cannot play in st. petersburg with cska or zenit, you understand, uh, ukrainian uefa passports she says, i understand everything, professional football players, but these young children didn’t please uefa and the european union you see, this is the most outrageous thing. most of all, another idea that is

active, at least in newspapers, well, in social networks. yes, the headlines also flash this creation of the championship on the territory of those republics of those regions of the regions, yes, which are not recognized by uefa or fefa, and at the moment, they are in limbo like the crimean football. this is the dpr, the lpr, the crimea is now kherson, zaporozhye, south ossetia, abkhazia, this is the joint championship. like yeah that's how the idea was born. i understand that the roots in many respects grow here from the crimea if they are mistaken, and how it is being worked out, where everything is moving now after february 24th. we have seen that we are no longer alone. well, to be honest, for 8 years. well, probably any championship to play four rounds with the same opponents. well maybe least. well, if steel is already fed up. yes, that is, we know the same force. yes, they have already appeared,

middle peasants have appeared. well, and accordingly, outsiders. well, no development. yes, that is, and here we saw that the same colleagues in football misfortune appear. and that we can somehow, uh, despite the fact that we are with the guys from the lpr and lpr. we are already talking. let's keep in touch. all those long years, when he goes to find shelling, well, they physically have nowhere to play. although they also play. but it's a transitional period. they come to us. here we are of course, we didn’t go there, but often we saw what it was. and then the idea was born, why not , well, not do it. here is a championship. yes, that is, well, the commonwealth of unrecognized territories, yes , football, because today we have the right to say that this territory of russia we cannot. yes, we understand all this in the football sense, of course, yes, in the football sense. yes, that is, we ca n't and, accordingly, fifa conducts. well, let's say

they don't. yes, there is a world championship among countries not recognized by fifa. yes, they are too we were coming. we said guys. thanks to us , uefa hears, and we are waiting for an invitation to big football, and we refused. they came to us twice, twice they invited us, where exactly the lpr dpr abkhazia they play. who came from which country or directly from the organization directly from the organization, the general secretary, i don’t remember now, how i’m not ready to say, but uh, he came for 2 days, he was with us in simferopol and we talked hmm very nice, not bad, he speaks russian. here. well, we unfortunately declined. it was the championship did not spend in abkhazia for literally half a year hmm. they invited us to participate in that championship. so we refused. today we clearly see that today those with whom we once played football are in the same situation.

maybe, and why don't we play a commonwealth unified championship like this, yes, that is, why not? yes, that is, first of all, of course, uh, my colleagues and i talked and said, guys, you can. well, everything is fine with us in the crimea from sevastopol. yes, everything is fine with the abkhazians, because they play student. they also come to us. yes, and we say you will be able to gather two or three teams in the donetsk people's republic and lugansk. well, they said it takes time, because , well, it was announced today, full mobilization and almost the entire male population is at the front today and is liberating their territories, that is, well, we also understand this, but uh, if such a question arises, then we are ready to commands. from lugansk, two from donetsk should definitely be delegated. yes? that is, we why not? yes, that is, they also came on the phone from the kherson region. one team will definitely participate. well, from zaporozhye, too.

that is, i believe that we are already recruiting. yes, that is a full-fledged eight-dash 12 teams. here, the second, as a format, yes, that is, but it is also important, of course, uh, we will not have time to carry it out. literally, well, since the new year, that is, spring, why not? this is what we are now thinking about more and more. that is, now we are waiting for colleagues who will come to rest. again, somewhere right now, uh, one championship ended, the second begins. and in this transitional period, we will check again. everybody. well, we will probably declare this one, that is, we will say it is in power, because it is important. we all understand that classic. well, maybe a derby. eh, sevastopol-lugansk, simferopol-donetsk, it really would be like the good old days, but we all understand. we see that the arrivals of those shells that were just recently next to the donbassans flew to stakhanov before that . yes, there was a direct hit on the podium. we all

understand that we will start for the time being, probably somewhere, maybe on our territory. maybe somewhere on the territory of rostov krymsk well, this is the second question, but the most important thing today is to assemble teams. yes, that is, and decide on the format. and i think, well, definitely there is. at least talk and have an idea. here is such a unified championship. at the beginning of the interview, you mentioned the lugansk boarding school. uh, we have two premier league coaches from there. this is sergey semaka sergey yuran remember them, of course, i could have brewed here, all those guys are gone, remember, well, according to personal communication why because you are, if i’m not mistaken, the seventy- second year, maxi-75 yuran is older, you just between one and the second sergey, yes, well, honestly, unfortunately, i don’t know them, but i know kanchelskaya, it’s good, as it were, those guys too. well, how would more here it. but these guys juran came already

being. uh, national team player. well, somehow here we are talking more with the swing itself the last question. we probably understood why teams from russia don't come here yet to participate in some matches of official semi-official tournaments do teams come do teams from mainland russia want to come and here in order to to conduct training camps, because if such a number of fields such a climate and cheapness, then why not come? you know , they came up to a certain point, but again football justice from uefa intervened , uh, it was about 5 years ago, that is, we are always in winter. well, when the training camp was holding the winter cup, uh, the crimean football union was invited, that is, the teams that were at the training camp often came from the mainland, and

then anzhi played two and uh, sokol saratov you know it was a good tournament. sokol saratov won in the final, defeated sevastopol, if my memory serves me, well, it's not so important, and literally in 2 months we became our colleagues. that is, they say it would be better if we did not come to us with uefa flew in from the requests. and now we are reporting. why we went to the crimea and why we played in official competitions. i was honestly surprised then, when i was the president of the crimean football union. well , firstly, this is an unofficial competition. yes, that is, it is competitive. well, the training one such mini-tournaments are played very often, when you come to the training camp, but to which the answer was such that if there is a regulation, it does not matter what level of competition. so this is an official competition. and, of course, to us. well, we didn’t have any complaints, because we are already in sanctions. well, after that,

unfortunately, the teams from the mainland and those who play in the russian football union simply stopped going out of harm’s way, because they wrote papers and as far as i know, no sanctions they weren’t there, but their nerves were pretty frayed and , accordingly, everything was out of harm’s way, however, 2 years ago, torpedo arrived in moscow and held two training camps, that is, everyone was very satisfied. we saw friends again. aldoni on ignashevich were very glad to meet colleagues. well, they themselves ran to football. they remembered the good times, even if after 20 years so that hmm there is a story. we are ready to accept everyone. but we say again, we do not want to harm any russian football. union, not in particular to any of those players, so that they do not received a disqualification. what about infrastructure? i believe that we have 5 bases with two or more at least two full-sized

football fields and they could definitely receive teams. well, accordingly, hmm, 5-6 teams, as if there is a good level for sparring, with whom they could play at the training camp and our crimean teams will respond with pleasure, but again, this is any communication. hmm, see. how other teams are developing show their players, and somewhere, maybe hmm to suggest. yes, that is our crimean football players so that they try a stronger championship for themselves in the children's crimean football. there is not only an excellent infrastructure, there is also the experience of friendly matches with their peers and from other regions of russia, it is approximately understandable that their future will leave for other academies in other cities. when there is an understanding similar to adult crimean football, this question will probably not be answered now. no one it was the

football of russia we do not say goodbye see you very soon.

in donetsk, an employee of the tv center channel, operator assistant andrei alekseev, received several shrapnel wounds on the territory of the republic, ukrainian units are hitting multiple rocket launchers and heavy artillery.
