are parallels with today's day admissible how to find a way out about this saved russia in washington by anatoly antonov we talked at the very place where we could find a way out in october 1962 unique in every sense the tour recaptured his home of the residence of american presidents within easy reach of the former building of the embassy of the soviet union here is now the residence of the russian ambassador, where he made an appointment for us. here was the office of anatoly fedorovich and dobrynin, night meetings with american representatives, as well as in his apartment, it is not visible here. it's somewhere, uh, on the third floor, uh, in the living room where they had tea. uh, coffee, who are they, they are president kennedy's brother robert kennedy and also anatoly fedorovich dobrynin . it is very important that 60 years ago

, this trust channel existed. you know, to be honest, i'm a little bit even jealous of him, because he had such a channel he had to say, even his entrance to the state department. he uh, even his elevator uh, tells that he is calm could get into the white house. uh, alas, alas, alas, uh, i don't have such an opportunity, in order to instantly get through to the white house or the state department. and this is a top view from the roof of the residence. where before us the tv cameras did not rise at all, take a closer look, to the left of the russian tricolor, if you look in the same direction, you can see the white house square on the pavement. something yellow. this is the slogan black lives matter written in yard letters in the protest summer of 2020 right on mostovaya street . yes, in the united states of the time of the democrat biden, according to compared to democrat times. kennedy, many things have changed, but the relationship with moscow is at

zero these days. we are celebrating the 60th anniversary of the caribbean crisis . , that is, the myth really stood on the brink of this war. there will be a third world war , there will be armageddon well, you are asking me a question not about my salary. uh, only the russian president, vladimir, can answer these kinds of questions. vladimirovich putin, but i will answer you firmly. at least what we do is what russian diplomats do. uh, russian politicians are doing everything to ensure that this does not happen, and we are committed to the position. e, approved by our presidents. and not only the russian

federation of russia, but also the nuclear five that a nuclear war cannot happen and there will be no winner in it. there will simply be nothing, there will be no one. and therefore, uh, i believe that everything must be done to ensure that this does not happen, and many compare the period e 60 years ago today. uh, of course, according to biden, for example, compares, of course, it is difficult to say whether uh, the situation is comparable to the current one. i think moreover, i think that it is necessary to abandon this unnecessary empty chatter, which is so much today in various publications and on various pathological shows, when people speak who do not even understand what they are talking about, what it is, how much it's dangerous, how scary it is. and this is nuclear

tragedy that could unfold. i think professionals should do this. and you pay attention. how careful is the russian president in calibrating every word he gives us as a guideline in order to work in this direction. you often in my comments i follow them very carefully, especially recently you have noted. what, the united states is not the only one doing this? it does and the kremlin becomes de facto. this was not a party to the conflict during during the caribbean crisis, we did not fight the united states with cuba at that time there was a failed operation in the bay of pigs. how to be here you really think that the americans are at war with us you know, uh, i smile at you because you provoke me

into a discussion with you and i don’t want to do it. what does conflict mean? and the fact that ships were lined up that blocked the passage of russian ships. isn't this participation, this is not preparing for a military crisis, when the american naval commanders were ready to breathe, uh, on the buttons and missiles would fly to russian ships. would n't that be a war. and what is happening today? well , let's take a look together. uh, arguing whether the americans is nato is worth uh a party to the conflict. what does it mean to be a party to a conflict? this is what to send, it is necessary to send military units to ukraine and which would put their foreheads or eyes in the eyes with russian units, the americans have been training ukrainian military personnel for a long time. about how to wage war or the skill of nato soldiers, the americans supply very

serious, weapons from which they hit russian cities, children, people, innocent citizens die. eh, that 's it, it's been going on for a long time. it's a very dangerous position - it's, uh, a very dangerous policy. exactly, that's why i said all the time, the old one saved the signal and the white house and the guests of the bros want to believe that they are watching what the russian diplomat says about stopping, where anatoly ivanovich is now the red line. let's decide, red lines, for what for a military clash between russia with our red line. for them. they crossed those red lines a long time ago. you know, well, so that someone does not explain about the nord stream blew up. you remember history. we know they blew it up. i don’t know in our country today , there are no proven facts of the participation of this or that state, but i am firmly convinced that

behind this sabotage is no one person, not some group, but the state is a state that has technological , and has abilities that specially trained as i'm talking about people. here gazprom said today that there were videos shown of 2015, of a nato, underwater drone installed between a dead body stream. this was the first stream. so they have this video. they are now showing it to us, an infrastructure war has been declared. yes, the americans always spoke. it is against the fact that between the soviet union and europe between russia and europe there would be reliable and mutually beneficial relations. remember the soviet period, when there was a famous pipe project in exchange for oil. and you remember how much was done in america to

prevent this project from happening, remember that there was a ssp uh, one, the same thing happened with p2d here, finally the opportunity to drop the masks and hit our pipeline systems. among such facts of a strike on the russian federation, i, of course, consider the strike on the crimean bridge. let's take a look at the train schedule of civilian trains. which would have to pass over the railway bridge. i have a feeling, uh, the famous train should be passing at that time tavria, which transports vacationers, and so that you can imagine if this truck exploded, and if the train that leads the children of women and men had an accident, there is no difference, and they would die after a vacation in the crimea or a moment when they went there,

it's terrible. i believe that it is unambiguous that this act of terrorism can be our impact. and i think that retaliation in the first place was today strikes on key targets in ukraine . i think that these actions will be determined. supreme commander-in-chief of the president of the russian federation here, we hardly need to speculate with you or invent something there. today, cnn and fox news are in rare unity in one voice saying that attacks on ukraine's critical infrastructure were caused by a terrorist attack. ah, which were produced by the ukrainian special services in relation to the crimean bridge. in your opinion, how should these somewhat divergent signals emanating from the american side be perceived? i would call them contradictory, but for me it is very

what matters is what the white house says about it, what the state department says. and what, he says, i have to admit that no changes in the rhetoric of the white house, the guests of the apartment in the first place, of course, and the pentagon did not happen, as before, the only task is to put pressure on russia to introduce new sanctions to destroy russia , so i understand, uh, the desire of the russian people to see, at least something. good something positive some kind of light at the end of the tunnel, but uh, we here, uh, working in the embassy must assess the situation very objectively and soberly. i see and foresee that the pressure on us will continue, and i have to say that i think that relations will worsen, what would you personally assess russian-american relations.

has it ever been worse in history for us, and if so bad. should we improve these relations at all, or can we simply bury them, but why do we need relations with those? who? thinking about how to decapitate us russian-american relations in an extremely bad state in practice, if you ask me, and what is left of them today, i will tell you the strategic offensive arms treaty that it operates, and i will tell you the interaction in space and i am very glad that roskosmos is able to cooperate, and deconflicting , the so-called word is not russian , but we use it this communication between the russian and american military in the theater of war actions in syria, we are trying, but somewhere to find common ground on the non

-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. but it practically does not work, and yet. uh, i firmly believe that russia is the united states america is doomed to thieves, at least on the issues of strategic security strategic stability we tirelessly repeat this, as all permanent members of the security council we are the largest nuclear powers and on what climate in relations between russia and the united states will be. america depends on the world depends on our future is such a question. i have been working here for almost 10 years and throughout this time. so it happened to match. i observe a consistent degradation of russian american relations. i am already seen the administration. obama i have seen the trump administration. now the biden

administration is getting worse and worse with every administration. god bless russian-american relations. well, we'll survive, but such a period is the architecture of world international security with this question. especially arms control. you are an expert in this, and yet it has always been such an island of rationality of the mind that you understood that no matter what happens. that's what local climatic storms would not arise there. this is the course to follow. what is now left of architecture world security? and what else can be saved? and is there any work in this direction? i will call it first of all the treaty, but the reduction of strategic offensive arms. we, uh, are in the legal field of this agreement. we are implementing it together with the americans. we have claims against them, because as they perform we believe that they perform it in bad faith,

nevertheless. we continue to interact with them, but there is very little time left, that is, the course of this agreement, well, almost 3 years for these 3 year question. can we work out something? and in general, by the way, under these conditions, should we work it out or not? should we resume the conversation on strategic stability or not ? this is a very serious question. you are right when you said that even during the cold war there was talk of this topic. walked between our two countries, but if the americans, we are unambiguously enrolled in the list not of rivals, but of enemies. e, if they press us from all sides, they try to press e, they try not to destroy russia shatter put it on its knees, then the question arises. and on what basis are we going to hold or restore you a conversation on strategic

stability, and we have the answers. if you would ask me only one yes on an equal basis, if you ask what russia has, russia has a well-known position. uh, good. i think it 's a good formula for the security equation, when we suggested to the americans earlier to consider strategic systems, uh, that get territory to each other, and which we should discuss and, uh, at least think about measures trust. trust is evident, the americans should start with this, but they think that other problems need to be discussed. well, by now, not all americans think so is the administration. now, the trend is also the same as it is now, they say the word trend of the last two or three weeks, elon musk began to speak out very actively. he is probably not alien to us, at least, because he is one of those few people who still help us cooperate in practice. i

was just now, i just went and watched how they would launch a ship with our anna kikina, by the way, telling us an offer to attend this and it was not confirmed that, and you wanted yes , i would very much like to see, i would very much like to participate and talk. well, here you are, please, to the russian embassy. here he catches these signals, how do you explain them, and trump already says that negotiations are needed and elon musk offers e to subscribers. uh, a survey where people could decide there in their attitude to how much territory, uh, where people live, russian speakers in ukraine are free to determine their how do you explain the future? i will answer your questions a little more broadly, you know, and we are offered negotiations. uh, official washington the first

condition is to stop the special military operation, the second is to withdraw all troops from the territory of ukraine , read, including crimea, luhansk, donbass, two zaporozhye, kherson region, and the third, start thinking about how we will pay for the drugs. well, is it possible to agree on something on this basis? in general, you are powerful even to voice such ideas, that is, they still speak to us from the position of a strong they are trying to talk to us through the lip. how do you feel this is just news. here, for several days, yes, the turkish initiative to hold negotiations with the participation of western countries with the participation of russia, but without ukraine, ukraine is not mentioned there, how viable this initiative is and the view from washington to the view from washington for this, in order to make a correct analysis, you need to know the details this offer. what is supposed, but i want to tell you one thing, that the idea that the future of prope is the future of the world needs to be discussed. 10-12

countries it's not a new idea there is, uh, and in some i would call them progressive circles of the united states of america about what to think about a new international order. once again, i want to emphasize that everything cannot be reduced to ukraine, but not from ukraine, we are fighting, we are fighting on ukrainian territory on this territory. she was chosen to solve the problem between the two civilizations, and in this respect she agrees with dugin. uh, a philosopher known to political figures that two civilizations collided here and uh, the result is with us only one conversation and uh, it all depends on us. can we withstand this pressure? will we be able to hmm firmly put u on our feet and most importantly,

will we be able to restore our economy very quickly u and get that economic military potential that will force them to speak with us on an equal footing. we need a new yalta, depending on what you and i mean by a new yalta. i firmly believe that, uh, we need negotiations in which we must define the contours of the international order. well, for example, if in the area e military-political me, let's say, this is understandable, but with regard to the economic problems that exist, er, there are big questions here, by the way , the solution of trustees. plus, it just goes in line with those thoughts that i spoke about, but about what is being considered here as a serious slap in the face of the administration, when a country that seems to be militarily dependent on the united states of america allowed itself, i’m talking about saudi arabia allowed actions that are contrary to the interests of the united states of america

and, uh, it was amazing to see when the american politicians began to say that saudi arabia, together with russia, is restoring high prices. prices here at petrol stations do you come across here? uh, with russophobia a lot. it is very sad that we are witnessing the desecration of our consulate general in new york. we see here from the speech the vandal actions of the vandalism of our embassy, ​​and we are constantly on a daily basis instructing our diplomats to be extremely careful. you know, i want to take this opportunity to say a few words about our diplomats. words. hey, great team. well, today, literally, we were going to a meeting. i said that we are beaten here all the time. uh, there

are fewer of us, we are being kicked out , various kinds of discriminatory measures are being taken against us, and nevertheless we have very wonderful ones, and a good team, which, as i want to believe , gives and does the right things to protect the national interests of our country, our diplomats do not were left out of the special military operation. we, like in previous years, took off our hats. and we are now collecting funds in order to send them to the donbass when you see what is happening today in the donbass it is impossible to remain indifferent to this for many russian citizens of the embassy here our russian embassy is the last hope and, probably, to a greater extent than all the others - this is people who

are in captivity due to various circumstances. someone completely unjust, as victor will be convicted, and simply bypassing any norms, not only legal, but also ethical how it is built here work and of course we want to know everything. it is worth waiting there, after all , we will find some good news in the near future since 2008, we recorded 58 cases when russians were captured. in fact, they staged a hunt for them in third countries. they were teleported brought here and are in american prisons. uh, the issue of the exchange of prisoners is a very delicate sensitive issue, this issue is being dealt with by special departments of the russian federation and the united states of america, by the way, by the way, this problem is being discussed through channels that vladimir vladimirovich putin and joe biden were identified back in geneva, so i would consider

it necessary to distance myself from this conversation. having given the opportunity, our departments and the american department to calmly work professionally in this direction to deliver. the main thing is that our russians should be free. and how it will be done, what is suitable, what is not suitable. i think these are technical details. we will leave it to the court to decide our departments. let's just hope, but it's better to dissuade me unambiguously or confirm that there are still two parties in america, a peace party, a war party. or is it our absolutely speculative view of things. and those who really make the decision here are the deep state - this is the party of war, this is the party that will go to the end with russia, the two parties of the republican democratic will now have mid-term congressional elections. we don’t know and don’t want to say who will win, i can only say that there

are a lot of problems in the united states of america that need to be solved even today by an ordinary citizen. they think that you will agree with me that you are more interested in what is in your pocket. how much money is in your pocket? what is the price of gasoline at gas stations? how much does bread cost, and if it's work, is it paid, is inflation high, and i think that they are less interested in ukraine. another important thing is that between republicans and democrats. in my opinion. there is a consensus that russia is the adversary. and it is this negative attitude that we russian diplomats have to try to sharpen and change the attitude. and to russia, you know, maybe we are now with you at a time when we need to think together with those people who exist, who think

about the need for russian american relations. we need to think about how to open america for russia and open russia for americans. she is that ivanovich you said about two games to us who is better? to win the answer is very simple. uh, repeatedly on him. we gave the answer that this is the business of the americans, who will not be elected, and these are their problems, how they will solve them. e your problems. which one they will build a foreign policy, we will try to build pragmatic equal relations with any people who will be in the white house on the capitol or in the state department of good.
