but it's best to check. about the main events of this minute in our news release, deep condolences on the death of mikhail gorbachev were expressed by vladimir putin the first and only president of the soviet union died at the ninety-second year of his life after a serious and prolonged

illness moscow, at the novodevichy cemetery, next to his wife, lekan will continue he appeared when the mood of the people was most needed, society is changing all of us have arrived. in the movement in the eighty-fifth received almost absolute power. in the largest country, a smiling general secretary, in an excellent suit with a southern accent, gorbachev fell in love with this country. he also did not look like his predecessors, just as the perestroika and glasnost proposed by him did not look like the dull soviet slogans, perestroika so something needs to be done by yourself , and not just carry out commands publicity. so you can talk, and not whisper, read solzhenitsyn dovlatov nabokov rybakov brodsky for this now they will not plant and even work will not be kicked out. as he was then met everywhere, he began to speak with people, like a human being, even the word perestroika came into political use not after the plenum in

january 1987, but in april 1986 after the general secretary spoke to the workers of the volga automobile plant. it was then that a decision was made to create avtovaz, he returned andrei sakharov from exile and retired almost all brezhnev. politburo. he insisted on withdrawing our troops from afghanistan . taken as good signs. he contained so many hopes that not a single person in the world. couldn't make them happen. gorbachev seemed to be intoxicated with people's love, and with him the people in a prominent democratic impulse of the directors of the largest factories. starting to choose the workers as a result , the enterprise often falls apart and breaks up into cooperatives. this is the people's initiative in action. he started an anti-alcohol campaign in order to reduce mortality, the result was cutting down vineyards with sugar patalon, the loss of 62 billion soviet rubles and

jokes about non-alcoholic weddings. the first alternative choices have become as accepted and time-consuming as empty store shelves. and also the chernobyl disaster, the earthquake in armenia , the signs are bad, the soviet union swayed, if nothing is changed, economists, they gave it, it’s still 10-15 years old, but you can’t simultaneously change the entire economy and the political structure of the state, they told gorbachev, but he wanted everything and immediately believed that save the fall of the berlin wall. the most striking example of how the soviet first stance changed the device of the world from the rostrum of the un in eighty- eighth, gorbachev said that the soviet union was switching to the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of the gdr, and a year later the wall collapsed. britain and france objected, even in germany, many said time was needed for the transition period, but gorbachev wanted to break all the walls at once for the western man in the street. gorbachev was fashionable like rock. the idol reached

the layman thatcher was fascinated by gorbachev from the first negotiations also by the fact that he showed her a map with targets for soviet missiles in britain and the states the iron lady, kicking off her shoes, climbing into a chair with legs did not hide her surprise. then she went to the states and there said the famous phrase. i like mr. gorbachev, you can deal with him. we believe in our political systems. he firmly believes in his own, and i firmly believe in mine. none of us can force the other to change his system, but now few people remember that she also told gorbachev and i told him that i don’t think we should get rid of nuclear weapons nuclear weapons . better hold on. the factor, if it is abandoned, increases the risk of conventional war or war with the use of chemical weapons in his 6 years in power, gorbachev met 11 times with us presidents five times with reagan and six times.

with bush senior. and we soviet people for the first time were proud of how our leader was met in the west. the soviet union first unilaterally declared a moratorium on nuclear weapons testing, and then signed an agreement with the states on the elimination of intermediate-range missiles. the west accepted these steps. as a sign of weakness. after all, moscow did not even demand guarantees that nato will not move to our borders. so they promised in the words of america, their head was spinning victory in the cold war what kind of victory, however, then, the country that believed gorbachev about such a danger of a foreign military bloc near its borders, did not think the confrontation with the west seemed in the past and in the cramped soviet kitchens they spoke not about the elderly infirmity of the leaders and not about external enemies, a new, exciting topic, gorbachev and raisa turns out to be

the communist general secretary. maybe it's so disarming to love and so intimate to be loved years later already after raisa maxim was gone, gorbachev, estimating everything that he had to endure, would say the worst of her life were those two months when she was fading away before his eyes, no tests in the network were good. now they understand when this turning point happened, after which it became, as if the two gorbachevs were revered for freedom by citizens of western countries, the other one, which caused more and more questions. in your country, he started a fight with tutors by private taxi drivers, then he encouraged all sorts of people at first rather harshly opposed the desire of the baltic countries to share, then sabit simply brushed it aside and in tbilisi he became president not in the popular elections. she conscientiously

fulfilled the high duties of the president of the ussr entrusted to me by the congress of people's deputies of our country, then lost to yeltsin. but she will forever remain the first and last president of a country that no longer exists. and the crimean forus will always remind you of the putsch of the ninety-first. citizens did not forgive gorbachev for unfulfilled hopes, hardware heavyweights, communist and anti-communist that he did not stand up, at least on someone's side. foros is the only soviet coup that was not carried out under the rug, such a grin of publicity. he remained completely alone, he experienced the maximum accessible to a person from universal adoration to universal humiliation, the death of the country that he loved and that he

so wanted to revive. i leave my post with anxiety. well, with hope. with faith, you have your wisdom and fortitude, after the resignation, i found strength in myself. show what is possible, a normal full life after authorities. moreover, it was in his own country that he did not leave russia. although he left to give lectures, and celebrated his eightieth anniversary in london with sharon stone from schwarzenegger, makarevich sang to him in english. library of congress experts have included gorbachev among the most studied personalities in world history. that is, they are clear with gorbachev. everything is more difficult for us june 14 in one of his last television interviews about what happened in ukraine there, except for the west, everything else is very close

the people are very close, without taking even distant history now. in the leadership of the soviet union of the entire soviet power , russians and ukrainians are most present in the reunification of the crimea and russia. gorbachev then called the correction of a historical mistake, did not explain the truth, whose? it was a mistake, because crimea was lost for moscow when the soviet flag was removed from the kremlin. what more than i already have, so to speak, and satan the devil, and, uh, god descended to earth to save our unfortunate country. all this was the time that had passed since he there was too little in power to dot all the open spaces of gorbachev's freedom everyone rushed, but not everyone found what they were waiting for gorbachev freed us not only from communist narrowness, but also from the post of communist illusions, and this liberation turned out to be very painful. for him too. or

yakonov igor kozhevende, she is fetisova to lead another topic now, zelensky’s army from american systems is hitting the liberated cities of the kherson region in nova kakhovka, 20 residential buildings have been destroyed. in kherson itself, they are trying to destroy the antonovsky a bridge and a temporary crossing, which the russian military organized for residents, while our air defense system intercepted more than 50 shells of multiple rocket launchers kiev is trying to create the appearance of a successful offensive in kherson, as the ukrainian press writes, johnson and biden insisted on attacks. as a result, zelensky threw his units to certain death in just a day, the ukrainian army lost more than 1,200 people and about 150 pieces of equipment about how the mikha blitz choked automatic bursts and explosions early in the morning

the residents of the tavrichesky microdistrict were awakened while working out information from the local population by the security forces in one of the houses. armed persons were found. we see that the attempt to fight back ended fatally for the militants, the russian security forces blocked their buildings and proceeded to destroy the entire house crammed with weapons, including foreign-made ones, american anti-tank grenade launchers, machine guns, improvised explosive devices. and here is also an interesting thing, a portable solar battery is quite enough to charge a phone or work laptop one of the militants eliminated on the spot the second was wounded, he managed to escape. now the secret services are looking for him. residents of the kherson region willingly help the security forces over the past 8 years, nationalist organizations have done everything to make the local population hate the monster sector. even stood on the road. here, hmm crimea, there was such a case that a crimean resident drove here and hid the russian passport of the right-winger quite well, they

found him and took his wife as collateral. and sent back to the crimea, they said 2 hours 2,000 dollars. otherwise she will be our common, yes, and now the kiev regime daily shows its true attitude towards the inhabitants of the region another missile attack on new kakhovka in recent days there have been dozens of them, 20 residential buildings were destroyed, an 80-year-old woman died. what is the expediency of military operations here, what is the military expediency of missile strikes on a residential area. look what's going on behind my back. these are human destinies. this housing of the people, the widely publicized offensive of their sunnah kherson, failed in the hospital of nikolaev and odessa is filled with wounded ukrainian soldiers, and the kiev regime is avenging its failures at the front to ordinary people in the region. this is how the

ukrainian militants are trying to destroy the last opportunity for the inhabitants of kherson to cross to the other side along the crossing. dnepr, in case of success, fuel products and everything that is now being delivered from crimea will no longer be able to get into the city . kherson ukrainian units also continue shelling enerhodar and the area of ​​the zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant did not stop even the fact that experts arrived in kiev, rich zelensky assured the guests that he was ready to ensure safe passage to the plant . however, the authorities. zaporozhye fear that kiev is planning another provocation, the fact that the european union is going to urgently transfer to ukraine 5.5 million tablets of potassium iodide is used to protect against radiation, and the situation anastasia

yefimova met the experts. in one of the capital's guests on ukrainian television, details are also heard, they say. the delegation includes representatives of a number of neutral states, in other words, the engagement of the united states and great britain, which are interested not so much in safety at the zaporozhye nuclear power plant. how much in the continuation of bloodshed at any cost no longer raises questions, i inform cnn journalists, as cnn journalists report, the iaea mission arrived in kiev today as members of the delegation of the international atomic energy agency noticed in the stolichny hotel, let me remind you that the mission will begin its visit to zaporozhye. nuclear power plant tomorrow, august 31, it will last 4 days, the mission is headed by the head of the iaea, rafael grosse, according to the publication, the new york tice, all members of the team of representatives of neutral states, neither the united states, nor great britain, nor other countries that have a decision. military assistance to ukraine will not be presented

in the delegation. the main purpose of the experts' visit is to guarantee the safety of europe's largest nuclear facility. this is a direct quote from social media. general director magatyrov or groyse, only kiev has goals, apparently, with everything else , provocations that threaten a global man-made disaster the armed forces of ukraine and do not think to stop provocations in order to create a threat of a man-made disaster at the zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant on august 29 on the territory of the nuclear power plant ukrainian troops. four strike drones were used. all drones were intercepted by russian means, one of the drones fell on the roof of the building of special corps number one, in which stores american -made nuclear fuel and solid radioactive waste, destruction and casualties were avoided. moreover , the kiev regime, armed to the teeth by western countries, cannot help but understand exactly what objects on the territory of the station are being fired upon by the fall of a

ukrainian drone on the roof of the special building, a step towards a catastrophe, which, fortunately, has so far been prevented in the special building number one, than, uh, this special building is important because that it stores fresh fuel just a few meters and a couple overlaps that separated us from the irreparable. yes, no involvement. that is, we see that they are hitting accurately, taking into account the fact that they have guided missiles and guided projectiles. it is clear that the goal is obvious and also directly guided missiles of the hml rs type. but these are hummers, yes, here are multiple launch rocket systems and, uh, 379 m3 guided projectiles of the seven are american-made strikes. plus. again, the same british blinston missiles are also guided. that is, you understand, here it is no longer possible speak. about what in a chaotic fire it’s simple, and whether they strike at the squares in a directed way at the critically important objects of the zaporozhye atom

power plant, clearly with the aim of causing at least an emission. eh, and ejection. yes, the infected material or, in the worst case, cause a secondary fission reaction, and then everything will be much more serious than such attacks by western countries actually threaten the world, the reporter is unlikely to realize. all the same cnn on the air directly states that in the event of a disaster, the radiation cloud kiev will literally cover europe, though kiev continues to assert maniacally that the very russian military who are already guarding it are shooting behind the scenes, only now moscow is cooperating with international experts. openly, in contrast to ukraine which, apparently, is trying to do everything to disrupt the work of the mission. we hope that this mission will take place as agreed and agreed upon. i repeat once again, we are interested in this mission and have been waiting for it for a long time, we will continue to draw the attention of the entire world community to

irresponsible behavior of the ukrainian military, which, by shelling the zaporizhzhya npp, endanger this facility and nearby territories, and even in a much wider geography. i repeat once again. we are convinced that all those european countries of europe, great britain, who have great influence on kiev, they should use this influence in order to actually prohibit its continuation of this very, very dangerous activity, ignore the threat that ukrainian shelling poses not only for the zaporozhye nuclear power plant itself, but and for everything peace. it seems to be getting more and more difficult, as well as taking statements seriously. kiev , for the first time, admitted the fact that pro c is actually worth everything. even the pentagon, however, so far only in the person of one of its high-ranking representatives. however, this did not prevent

the american defense department from announcing the transfer of a new batch of highmors to its transverse, which once again proves that all means are good for washington in the confrontation with russia, and the rest , be it destroyed by ukraine or even a potential nuclear holocaust in europe is just collateral damage. anastasia efimova lead europe is unlikely to agree on a total ban on visas for russians, the washington post writes about this, support for ukraine is inexorably falling brussels needs a new wave of negativity towards moscow prague to talk about ukraine on the eve of the new political season , the whole color of european military officials arrived just before the start of the meeting, the ukrainian army tried to organize a counter-offensive in order to report to the sponsors for the weapons supplied

. but to please colleagues with good news for them. the minister of defense of ukraine reznikov, via video link, was unable to general mood and the usual groundless accusations against russia were voiced by the chief european diplomat joselle, who in recent months has been calling not for negotiations but for war. unfortunately, the situation is not getting better, we have important tasks to solve. ukraine needs our support. and we will continue to provide it militarily; it will be difficult to do so. fruits and so empty ends available weapons. even the uk writes the local press, but it still has its own military. truth. nobody wants to send them to ukraine, in our opinion, the option of sending military personnel to the country is excluded, there is one more option to create

for the ukrainian military some kind of centralized training ground on the territory of the european union , and they offer to do this before the end of autumn, the germans supported. but in austria they doubt that the ideas will eventually be implemented and the issue will be discussed today. is such a mission possible at all, in our opinion, there are many open questions , on the one hand, as regards the legal framework, and on the other hand, what this mission will cover. what will be its content excised and financial resources the european union has already sent about ten billion euros in total aid, not counting the money that the countries have added personally from themselves, and there is still winter and an energy crisis ahead, which is already in the summer. it is very expensive. we will consider the impact of the war in ukraine that russia started on the energy supply of our country of our continent. we must develop a plan for further action. the edition of the politician writes that the possibilities for new sanctions are almost exhausted to go for a complete

rejection of russian gas. they want to go far in europe not all debate. the limited capacity of the bloc was highlighted as the government worries about rising energy cost inflation, and this portends the possibility of a shift in the actions of the eu capitals in the coming months, disagreements exacerbate the already strong division in the fastest way to end the war is to lose it, but we can not afford it. and russian propaganda is actively working in the west, convincing the leader that there is an opportunity to end the war and return to normal economic ties. so yes, in the european union there is a threat of internal explosion at the forefront of russophobia. was a tyrant. which inflation in latvia now wants to legislate. prohibit speaking russian in public space and in the labor market of all, entering russians will be interrogated and checked for correctness, views of dissent is called a threat to the national security of latvia the netherlands along

with eastern europe and spoke in favor of stopping the issuance of visas to russians. but ansa and germany openly oppose such measures and offer a compromise option not to issue long-term visas and to be more creative in hybrid war, to focus european efforts on using bloggers, journalists and tiktok to set the russians against the authorities alfa shlyak her proposal. suspend the facilitated visa agreement to no longer issue multi-year visas to enable the states that are more affected by this issue to check more closely for what purposes visas are used. from words to deeds, the germans were the first to unilaterally suspend the simplified regime. this means that it is still possible to enter the european union, but the whole procedure becomes as long as possible difficult and expensive, and there is no formal ban, but with such conditions, and even with the prices of air tickets, ordinary tourists are unlikely to want to visit the eu
