down choose the best we welcome everyone who joined us on channel russia 24 fifth studio. now let 's discuss something over the weekend, not only over the weekend, of course, has accumulated, which is worth discussing it again and

taiwan that's probably from this. let's start there, another american delegation has already arrived. uh, now, uh, five us senators have flown in there, representing different political parties. 2 days there will also be a short visit like this, but hmm they are going. uh, even here they have a program e to meet with the head of the taiwanese administration to attend a banquet on behalf of the head of the foreign affairs agency to visit the legislative yuan, that is, the parliament. and here is such an important remarque here, uh, hanging in advance was not announced, also interesting. in general, everything reminds, of course, the story of establishing with pilosia. i mean by the way in which they have their own planning going on there. just in taiwan, we will now discuss this with us, deputy chairman of the federation council konstantin kosachev konstantin osipovich greetings. hello,

american politicians of not the highest rank are already arriving. uh, in taiwan despite numerous protests, despite the fact that uh china again. e, says that there will be natural consequences of declaring that a is playing with fire. a hmm but, as we see, the wrong visit is not this visit. he didn't really agree with anyone. he, er, though, and that visit was expected of him. and this one, for sure, was also somehow predictable. and so, well, there will be no background, that is, the united states in this in this case, they again act like someone else, like a destabilizer, or somehow i don’t know there is a country that really has some kind of new bridge there, like many others, but analysts are now trying, uh, it’s all a matter of analyzing new bridges. there are some here suggest. yes, vectors and so on. well, to be fair. uh, this is the second visit in

recent times, and the us congressman and senators have visited taiwan before just without such fanfare and, of course, without the current one. uh, linking these two visits. uh, the binding is so perfect definitely exists because the senators. we arrived a few days later. after the scandalous visit, ma'am. uh, pelosi and only a blind person can not notice this mating, and uh, you said that they plan their personal time there. i am sure that there is absolutely nothing personal in these visits, and the visit of pilosi, in my deep conviction, was planned very well and at the level of the top leadership of the united states, to which she is included, and the current visits of senators, this is also part of, e, the global united states is positioning this, as if it they don’t know, there is the state department, for example, there is the administration of the white house, i have no doubt, because the americans are masters of playing with both. the circle, uh, and, uh, pulling cards out of the sleeve, as

cheaters usually do and the americans behave here. uh, cheating calling a spade a spade because with one hand they deal a card. uh, the united states of america recognizes the one china principle, they do not welcome it in any way. eh, calls for independence from taiwan e. we have everything. uh, as they say in order, but on the other hands directly opposite card, which is in an obvious way, like e. cookies on e. maidan , uh, are provoking the taiwanese authorities to at least uh, seek to maintain the status quo. so what is the best way to convert? e your de facto independence into de jure independence, well, behind this, of course, there is an even more global geopolitical game on the part of the united states, which perceives china, as you know, as its main geopolis. the opponent even now, when they clearly cannot cope with russia, even

if they do not consider it their main geopolitical rival, it is very important for them to flex their muscles. e in other directions, especially in chinese to show that they are not going to pay attention. on e. whatever the emotions on the part of beijing, and that they are not afraid of any practical actions on the part of beijing, i suspect that in this sense the americans are once again very seriously mistaken and commit kiev-strategic miscalculations, as they did in the russian direction over the past days, months and years. here many here are inclined, just e, to regard this visit as, in principle, such. uh, the thing is within the limits of this american strategy, is it something that works with respect to china ? critics, they act absolutely consistently and pragmatically, they

push the boundaries of the possible for themselves, and they assert or try, or rather, assert in the world. understanding what is what is allowed to jupiter the bull is not allowed, and uh, on the contrary, uh, and that only the americans have the right to act, as they consider it necessary for themselves, and for everyone else, u remains, then, the very international law, the observance of which the americans demand rigorously once again i repeat from everyone except for your loved ones. so from the point of view of the united states, everything is clear and predictable from the point of view of global stability, from the point of view of regional stability. this is an extremely destructive foreign policy and once again the americans are acting on principle, which winston churchill once brilliantly formulated when he said that americans will always find the best way to solve a problem. but only after trying all the other americans right now. in the most active way and uh, obviously destructive uh, try to

touch different ways of asserting your dominance of your hegemony in the world around you, but over and over again in these attempts you fail, and konstantinovich something is also a big question about logic. here are those actions. yes. uh, many things in the economy in general are very illogical now, but uh, china is the largest foreign trade partner of the united states, uh, the united states feeds, as it were, on goods from china and it turns out. well, stepping on your own tail can be painful. well, you know the chinese. uh, actually turned out to be much more pragmatic and uh, far-sighted uh, politicians and practitioners than americans. let me remind you that at one time the united states of america actively invested in the chinese economy, hoping that from there they will be due to cheaper labor due to savings. and on social spending there, which in china is lower on the environment, where the

chinese have much more liberal legislation. they will draw additional profit from china uh in the form of cheap uh goods, uh, but by no means making china its economic rival, the exact opposite happened . he has already surpassed china, which is far from being the power that the world would be. uh, seen 10 or 20 or 30 years back, who mainly borrowed foreign technology. he is actively developing them, and it is clear to e that in this sense, americans are becoming harder and harder to withstand. eh, this fair competition and then comes the story of unfair competition, when instead of being more competitive yourself. uh, the bet is on creating problems in the development of their competitors, what are the americans trying to do? and in chinese and not least in the russian direction. yes, but that's all

time, many economists, they say, imagine a country without e-goods from china, its economy, but uh, well, well, well, it will probably be imagined soon, and here, just about the oddities of such economic ones, but the united states now they are trying quite successfully for themselves, how to worsen relations with china . you know, it is carried out from the side. uh, shells are flying in ukraine, towards the zaporozhye nuclear power plant which feeds, among other things, ukraine, and here again . uh, too, uh, there have been a lot of statements lately and it's understandable. why were they made, because on the one hand, people who observe this situation and remember from chernobyl understand how it could end, and on the other hand, from europe, we somehow don’t see any condemnation here, even that, uh, iaea specialists are not allowed in there. but the

situation is very dangerous, the situation is extremely dangerous, and from both ukraine and uh, its western patrons. eh, even the highest degree of irresponsibility in general irrationality irresponsibility - this is what now characterizes. e politics. in this case, i will include the west in ukraine in the same place in relation to all its external partners. well, uh, in the ukrainian case, it is also added that ukraine is an obviously failed state. here, uh, there is such a thing. e. the legend that ukraine at one time fed the entire soviet union is a myth in e. among the fifteen union republics. uh, there were only two donor republics that gave more than received. these are the russian federation and belarus. and all the rest, including ukraine, were recipients. they received more than they gave. and by the way, among the recipients in the first places, that is, they received the most from the union budget, were georgia and

estonia, too, softly now. let's say it's far from being the most accomplished state, but ukraine is a special case, it's a big economy. it's supposed to be, uh, high-tech production. this is access to raw materials. and now we see that ukraine is now, uh, the only one of the 15 former soviet republics which could not even reach that soviet level of production. i name factors that were widely known even before the start of the special military operation. she is here, what is called has nothing to do with this kind of assessment, well, ukrainians. uh, how a failed state has to look for an explanation of why everything is out of their hands, it falls badly out of these hands. and now, the topic of a special military operation has appeared, and now it is quite convenient for ukraine to present itself as such. victims, and russian aggression in quotation marks and countries

which, as the air needs western assistance, by the way, the same policy is pursued by other former soviet republics and the baltic states and the same georgia and moldova, which, uh, did not really understand, each of these countries represents the russian factor as the main the factor e of their troubles and e as the main e motivator to receive additional help from abroad of the west. but ukraine will once again return to this topic, besides, it provokes not only generates, but provokes additional problems in their own development. actually, well, by and large, for ukraine, any catastrophe on the territory that it does not control is a boon and, uh, ukrainians. er, no matter what happens. how many people will suffer or die in this case, and ukrainians are quite consciously aware of these man-made environmental disasters. humanitarians are trying to provoke we see strikes on civilian targets we see strikes on

industrial facilities with dangerous production cycles. well, here, uh, the last one, what is called a drop is an attempt to destabilize the work. it does not matter to the zaporizhzhya npp that after that ukraine will no longer receive electricity for the ukrainian authorities. the only important thing is to present yourself as a victim to your beloved, including, no matter how paradoxical and monstrous it may sound, including the victim of possible radiation contamination. all this is in their logic of logic, in fact, self-destruction of their own country of their own people, but ukraine has gone to pieces and, unfortunately, there is no news in this anymore. just sometimes it seems that the regimes are using just this situation and in general, the very presence of a nuclear power plant on the territory of the zaporizhia region, how is that a three? so that well, the interest in oneself is not sold there in the western

press there somewhere in the american press. look, there was a curious story with ukrainian grain. let's remember the discussion there two weeks ago, when this problem had not yet been resolved. and when it seemed that the whole world was about to fall victim to famine, because with grain is not exported from ukraine. in developing countries there was a masterfully promoted theme. now, when a solution has been found and when we see that grain carriers are mainly going to non-third countries. and to the same prosperous europe, to the same united states of america, and most importantly, they go in volumes that do not fundamentally change anything on the world grain markets. initially, these volumes were insufficient to ensure that these markets. no matter how you destabilize in any way, but the topic is gone. here on they made some noise on it, stomped on it, earned political points. once again, they presented themselves as a victim. the topic has been played. e let's move on. now it has appeared. nuclear security , i think that this is not the last topic that

western political technologists will invent in relation to ukraine, because, alas, in the end, all these uh topics are not invented in ukraine itself, suspecting that ukraine is simply not capable of this now, what will they invent already invented. here is the crimean bridge. uh, going to hit the crimean bridge. here is alexey goncharenko mp the verkhovna rada here, uh, said that back in june at the summit in madrid, uh, just at the nato summit, he held talks on this very topic, he was talking with the british minister of defense, uh, just upline, he cited the destruction of the crimean bridge as evidence. here is the photo. eh, in my opinion, well, here you can judge it how? well, i just made friends. uh, interesting personalities, decided with them. here in the cafeteria to take a picture there and, uh, boris johnson when he was prime minister. uh, just the uk is also present. well, be that as it may, they hatch such. plans to inflict some kind of blows on the

crimean bridge there recently, by the way, they denied its existence. well, first a little about personalities alexey goncharenko is a personality. e, knowing this is a person who is directly related to the tragedy of the house of trade unions in odessa, he then participated in his own action of blocking this house, and then repeatedly publicly rejoiced that dozens of people died. this man, who, uh, spoke from the podium repeatedly so odiously that its repeatedly even in the current conditions in in recent months, taking into account the atmosphere in the pass, they were deprived of the floor for behavior that is unworthy of a european parliamentarian. well, here are his current statements, they are actually in the same vein. this is absolutely a man and a hateful ideology, and unfortunately, uh, there are quite a lot of politicians in ukraine who earn extra money on this ideology. political glasses, but this is personal but about the main thing, uh, about the public, uh of course, uh, the

crimean bridge, no one will allow it to be destroyed under any circumstances. it was built with known risks, although, at that time, of course, it was difficult to imagine that there would be a threat of direct strikes. if someone tries to inflict such strikes, it will be obvious that this is done with the help of weapons that ukraine receives from the outside because of its own weapons, which allow ukraine to carry out this kind of sabotage at the moment. if i'm not mistaken, just no. well, and finally, the third. well, let's imagine for a second that i repeat this hypothetical. i exclude this possibility, but hypothetical interference in the functioning of the crimean bridge. this is creating big additional problems for dozens. uh, hundreds of thousands, and maybe millions of civilians, and not only in the crimea , uh, but also, uh, nearby regions of the southeast,

and that's it. this, of course, will directly fall on the conscience of those who, firstly, did not stop the provocateurs, but secondly, those provocateurs who do not give up trying to carry out such a provocation . yes, here. in confirmation of one more of your thesis. you said that there are many these are the messages, they are not generated at all in ukraine. here is another example, just the statement of arrestovich aleksey, adviser to the head of the office of the president of ukraine, if there are restrictions from partners, because they see the big picture, don’t hit the territory of the russian federation, then we won’t beat. again, this is about where the uh orders come from. yes, that was the news. prior to that, that all goals they somehow discussed with the american command. well, and so on. e, konstantinovich yes, it’s just clear that ukraine here is completely not independent, it is used and it well, you lost your sovereignty even before the current events - this is, uh, a process that has been going on

for many, many years and even decades, but it has come to its final logical e point, uh, there is no sovereignty of ukraine, and therefore, by and large , from my point of view, it is absolutely pointless to agree on something with the ukrainian authorities, because they are not in a position to conduct any negotiations. to any kind of agreement, based on how ukraine's own interests are also said, interests are imposed on them, positions are imposed, but at this stage they are not allowed to enter into the negotiation process. konstantinovich a minute. literally stays. well, we can’t help but touch, of course, on topics that bothered everyone, especially those who periodically travel to europe are related to visas. yes, there is a whole list of countries that have either already banned or are going to raise this question at the general eu level. stop issuing visas to the russians. well within one minute it's human too a hateful ideology, because in this

case, measures are proposed or implemented that hit, uh, indiscriminately, on all people, without exception, regardless of their uh, political convictions from their practical actions. simply on the principle of citizenship. well , consider according to the principle of nationality and the fine line that separates this kind of ideological attitudes from neo-nazism becomes more and more disappearing small. how else can you not call it chauvinism? yes, indeed, such words are already in the assessments, just those statements that sound. uh, we also saw konstantin iosifovich thank you very much for being with us live uh, at this morning hour at the beginning of the working week, we wish you that it was also fruitful konstantin kosachev, deputy chairman of the federation council, was in direct contact with us. thank you for your attention. alfa-bank credit card
