ties with friendly countries on the basis of mutual benefit and common interests. forty- third general assembly outcome document 22 pages. well , there is enough text about the narrow text and not a single mention of the ukrainian crisis, not a single one, and western russophobia. what are the goals pursued by politicians who promote the denial of everything russian? the preservation of the cultural heritage of the peoples of russia and the development of creative industries are topics that are under constant parliamentary control . legislation in in this area, the promotion of the achievements of folk arts and crafts is one of the tasks of the temporary commission that has been working in the federation council since 2020. the year of cultural heritage announced by the president is coming to an end. its results were summed up by valentina matviyenko at a meeting with the heads of folk art centers, cultural and art figures, which was also attended by deputy prime minister tatyana golikova and the minister of culture. olga beloved, the participants of the event discussed topical issues with the preservation of the original traditions of monuments

culture, and art. we have developed and adopted a very necessary long-awaited law on the intangible ethno-cultural heritage of russia to allow a new impetus for the development of folklore groups of circles of ensembles. unfortunately, until recently, this direction has remained funded , we can say vulnerable, but this is what forms people's love, both for their small motherland and for our great fatherland of russia, and we very much hope that the law approved by us and signed by the president will be able to change the situation in this sphere already in the near future today speaking about culture. we proceed from the fact that this is, first of all , the environment in which the life of each person takes place , human experience, moral and spiritual values ​​are stored and transmitted. culture reflects the life of society, forms social norms

and values, regulate people's behavior and forms the stability of any society. and this is very important. but it is also part of the country's economy, but it creates jobs and is the basis for the development of other industries. pragmatic and equitable cooperation in some cases and strategic partnership today, this can be said about the development of russia's relations with asian countries, including within the framework of large international associations, no matter how hard the leadership of some western countries tries to isolate russia from the international community. this is impossible, as the plenary session of the 43rd general assembly of the sehan inter-parliamentary assembly, which was held in cambodia, once again clearly demonstrated, the results of the work of the russian delegation. in detail, let's talk with a guest of our studio deputy speaker of the federation council konstantin kosachev. konstantinovich, you recently returned from cambodia where the 43rd general

assembly of the inter-parliamentary assembly was held strange, osian, strange, southeast asia russia has been working in this forum as an observer for many years. just like india, just like china, but at the same time, there are observers like ukraine, but recently joined, the united states is australia is there is new zealand is there? canada has such an organization as the european parliament. well, let's say not the friendliest environment for us. whether this influenced the work of our delegation and, uh, hmm, as for the representatives of this western world, and whether they tried to find, uh, in southeast asia, the ukrainian issue was not in any doubt, because this is now the general line of the west about and without reason. eh, push the ukrainian topic into any discussion and any documents, and uh, i even had to speak from the podium and react. attempts of this kind to say that this means either a misunderstanding of

the format in which we are all gathered right now or disrespect for this format, because you need to understand that those countries that make up the backbone of a particular structure. in this case, osyan has its own agenda, they have their own interests, they have their own tasks. speaking of sean, you know from my point of view an example of political culture, when there are only 10 countries, uh, in general, with different economies , different cultures, different traditions, different interests. of course, nonetheless. uh, they work together and use this osian construction in order to bring their positions closer, and not try to adjust someone to uh, others who are stronger will be this is really an example. i think the whole world around us, first of all, the western one, which consistently ruined the council of europe at first, and now before our eyes, in exactly the same way. so that the se is quietly approaching the united nations as a whole. yes, there were such attempts, but they

remained absolutely uh, zero let's say with zero result final document of the forty-third general assembly osyan 22 pages. well, about the tight enough text and not a single not a single mention of the ukrainian crisis, although let's say. uh, the same european parliament, the representative of the european party devoted 2/3 of his speech to the session to ukraine, dedicated to condemning russia, the americans talked about it, the australians talked about it. but by the way, and it even me. well, i was surprised. i don't know about it, the canadians didn't talk about it, the japanese didn't talk about it. the norwegians didn't talk about it here either, well, from my point of view. well, at least some presence of common sense was nevertheless indicated. although they are actively uh involved. so to speak, the conflict in ukraine is supplied with weapons by all of the countries you have listed . maybe in japan to a lesser extent, as they say, but canada, norway in particular, what

is called this time not covered everyone. here's how to try. u under yourself to crush this organization. or maybe they just realized that this is impossible, and i am sincerely grateful to my colleagues in the osian format, and the countries actually have different relations, bilateral relations with the russian federation, there is singapore, which criticizes quite harshly russia is practically western positions. there are countries that are close to us, vietnam laos indonesia, which take a position. well, at least neutral, but nevertheless i repeat once again. the format itself almost completely leveled this already traditional, unfortunately, anti-russian activity west well, why didn’t they succeed? after all, they are consistently building their position, they are acting as a united front, and they are pushing their e, values ​​are pushing a unipolar model of the world for literally everyone international platforms. so, even remember the mps about which we talked last time. well, they still succeeded. and you

know to muddy the waters, i will express now on this air for the first time an idea that has long been in my head for quite a long time. eh, it adds up. here the west, uh, is fond of what makes up all kinds of ratings. freedom of speech rating freedom of the press. uh, state of human rights. well, further and everywhere it is clear that the criteria for these ratings are always, uh, convenient for those countries that make them up, so i suggested consider starting to compile on a regular basis. it will depend on what will happen in the world rankings. e sovereignty, the corresponding state of their degree of their sovereignty. and i think that in the first places in this ranking. well, whether we like it or not, it will turn out to be the united states of america, we want to go to school. we can criticize them, but not any doubt. they behave super. independently in this rating, of course, our country,

the russian federation, will undoubtedly be in the most the top league in this ranking will be abandoned by china without a doubt. belarus will be in this ranking. iran will be in this ranking. north korea will be in this ranking. in this ranking. i am sure there will be many states in asia, including those that are members of asean. many states in africa, many states in latin america and uh, one can only respect this i repeat the position. i'm not talking about content. i'm talking about the degree of sovereignty can only be respected, understanding? in what purposeful way this sovereignty is tried to be destroyed by western countries, overturning. those, these are the states that claim to be independent of their positions somewhere in the very last, uh, lines of this kind of ratings. and

so, back to your question. i think that this association of assians, with which russia has indeed been cooperating for more than 30 years and the last 5 years, based on the positions of strategic partnership. here is the state of assians. despite the fact that they are different, they will be in such a hypothetical rating at very high and very worthy positions konstantinovich has one more question this week. uh, the federation website discussed such an important topic as russophobia. well, uh, we know the process has been long enough, uh, for the last six months. with a little everything gets bigger and bigger . as you remember, there it began with attempts, the abolition of dostoevsky and yacheikovsky. at as a result. now the situation is escalating and it is really felt by our compatriots who live abroad, as well as our tourists, who, well, find themselves in these so-called. terrible countries, and how to deal with it, what to do with it, humanity, e, experienced this problem in its

history. uh, repeatedly well since uh. the history of racism during colonialism of course, anti-semitism is the most disgusting culmination point that became single, there were other examples, but in the modern history of mankind, the point where we are. now. e, perhaps the most disgusting form of manifestation. these phobias are, of course, russophobia. and uh. it flourished so luxuriantly in the west for one simple reason , for the reason that it was formed and uh developed, uh, not from the bottom up. not at the household level, it was artificially cultivated from above. it is a conscious policy of the authorities of western states to outlaw russia as a state, then russia as a nation, as a people, and

then citizens of russia up to people who do not even have citizenship well, or immigrants from russia either speaking russian or loving russia, all this has developed a completely disgusting phenomenon of russophobia. and uh, what worries me the most is that it doesn't appear to the citizens of the countries at this stage. west we always understand. what role does public opinion play? here are the citizens of western countries well, in most cases. it doesn't seem, alas, unacceptable, it doesn't seem disgusting, and uh, it certainly needs to be handled much more systematically and from my point of view. uh, you need to fix the situation on the fact that we are not dealing with the problem of attitudes towards a particular country and to a particular one we are dealing with a much more systemic and more dangerous problem, when there are contradictions between state differences. they are being transferred to the level of relationships with people and this is completely unacceptable now, if you like

, this is a moral category. here you can't do it. it seems to be indecently bad, but i believe that this category must necessarily be enshrined in international law. and i'm glad that that here in russia lawyers have already begun to work on this. both lawyers and diplomats will already talk about what needs to be done. this is the norm. and international law, it is clear that even then it was not only and not so much russophobia. although for us. this is the main thing, such a critical thing, a critical topic needs to be spoken in a broader sense, but about it as an announcement, and i believe that this phenomenon is most clearly most adequately described by the term ethnocide, that is, negative relations of ethnic persecution. principle, with all the ensuing consequences. i will repeat once again. we have already started working on this idea at the legal level at the international legal level. konstantin vasilyevich, you used the term ethnocyte, yes, that is, to our interview. i looked, academic

dictionary. here he gives the following definition that ethnocide is a policy of destroying the national identity of the self-consciousness of the people and there is such a postscript that people who have become victims of ethnocide usually lose their historical memory or a significant part of it is the loss of historical memory. it's on your view the goal of the western world is deprivation. i would now replace the word loss deprivation with an artificial decision. uh, some uh population of some people of their historical memory. of course. yes, of course. yes. we see how the history of our country is falsified in all its in all its refractions. not only the great patriotic war. the german bundestag has just declared a ukrainian famine. e genocide. although this was, in general, a national tragedy of all our then soviet people, and we know that not only and not so much ukraine was this we are affected by the tragedy, we see how everything is falsified, the previous stages of our

russian history. this distortion of history ultimately leads to trying to arouse some people's rejection of this story and the desire to distance themselves from it, but ultimately to forget this very real story, starting to use some, uh, surrogates and, uh, simulators. this is absolutely clear. thank you for this definition, which is part of the strategic, part of the policy of the nazis is not the only part, but the most important, because in any case, the national identity of any people is determined by its history , and here are the traditions of its language, which ultimately goes to those moral values ​​and national interests that make any people a people, or do not. what do you think, and when in the west they nevertheless begin to see clearly and decide to make a 180 ° u-turn and uh, then what is imposed

from above is uh, because it is artificial and understandable that people will sooner or later realize that this is an artificial enjoyment of artificial fear. artificial attempt to abolish russian culture vision. ah, a turning point in people's minds. it will happen when they understand that, on the other hand, which they are trying to evaluate the same people as they are, it seems to me that we are not doing enough in terms of our informational, in a good sense, propaganda work, because very often we limit ourselves to work. but if you want, official structures. this is what is called the voice of the kremlin, the voice of moscow, but, uh, when the so -called crimean platform gathers somewhere there again. here is from my point view of the crimean residents of the crimea should millions. to go out into the streets with all two million and ask from this street a question to those who somewhere out there in some sort of hamburg or warsaw

are going to the so-called crimean platform. are you there what are you going to discuss whom you are discussing? you are discussing us. you are going to transfer us there again from one jurisdiction to another jurisdiction, we live here. we are people, we determine our destinies, and no one but us can determine these destinies and has no right, and the same should happen when someone undertakes to assess the situation in the southeast. uh, in our new four constituent entities of the federation in those regions and for the time being in ukraine, which, well, they say, are in a borderline state. it doesn’t seem that in terms of our official promotion of positions everything is done correctly everything is done to the maximum, but it is necessary to accompany all this with civic activity of the population, primarily in those regions of those subjects of the federation of those territories that are now in the zone of attention and when people in warsaw hamburg vilnius in london in

paris wherever in washington anywhere else they will understand that the matter is not only and not so much in the official position of moscow, but in the will of people who want to determine their own fate, so, if this becomes obvious, until then artificially obscured. it's only obvious to us here in russia for now. that's when it will become obvious in the west. i'm sure a lot will turn over in the minds of their people, who are now forming this public opinion, the west and already through this further possibly change the official policy of these countries. how far is the bot ready to go in the information confrontation with russia, how deep can the global information split turn out to be, and how should it respond to new challenges? our country, we will discuss these topics today with senator alexei pushkov, chairman of the federation council commission on information policy and interaction with the media. alexey konstantinovich hello and the topic of the round table that you held this information split in the global

in the world, the tasks of the russian information policy, if we talk about this split, how obvious it is now is deeply quite obvious. e in the information sphere, between us and the west is a preacher. we generally exist in completely different dimensions. uh, what we perceive here, how important and fundamental for ourselves in the west. this is not accepted. so e russia is to blame for everything in russia is the root cause of everything up to growth. food prices up to the rise of valuable energy carriers. that is, they break ties they refuse to buy our oil and gas, and for some reason we are to blame for this, that is, uh, the west, uh, creates a completely different parallel reality, in which in general. but there are no problems that caused the actual ukrainian crisis. for example, no, topic topic, why didn't the west give security guarantees to russia when we asked for it

last september? the only thing that the west should have done, and this is to start negotiations with us, and there are no such security guarantees, but instead they said no. no, we will continue uh place. uh, armaments on the territory of ukraine to prepare them to work with them along the line, intelligence, and so on and so forth. in general, drag them to nato well, what did they expect. this topic does n't exist at all. that is. uh, like i said, this is parallel reality. this is a different world, so we don’t touch each other, but the round table was dedicated to this, it was dedicated to the possibility of expanding russia’s informational influence outside the western world, and this is a very important topic, because for some reason we are lightly fed by westerners the reformers of the nineties turned off to assume that everything is the whole world. this is the west. you see, there is light in the window, and everything else is some kind of blurry incomprehensible country. which we don’t care about, and now these countries are turning into the main thing for us, our main

partners. eh, economic trade in the main ways of delivering goods and products to russia, moreover , both official there, like all sorts of parallel and other other imports. here are the countries, by the way, that abstain or vote against anti-russian resolutions in the united nations that is, it is also our political support, and this one is not the western world, which is about 120 states, that is, 2/3 of the planet. and here for them. it seems to me that it’s worth fighting and they are ready to perceive information from russia, and for a number of reasons, firstly, they didn’t suffer the same from the west, because they know that they deceived the west many times, but because they saw what the west was doing in libya in iraq in afghanistan and it did not cause. there no excitement. that's because he sees constant double standards, these are, uh, now i would say, the most natural states for

the perception of our information. this is the creation of the information paradigm of russia, which will be built into other states. here is the task. it is how complex it is on a large scale, understandable on a large scale, how feasible this task is in the current conditions. and i would suggest to look at the need to create just an alternative western approach, because the west claims to totality. they are trying to impose political positions now. well, the same african countries. yes they say you have to vote. won. so-and-so and so-and-so yes, well, some part of african countries go for it in different ways . here, and what is the percentage of 40-45? no , we won't. and just recently, there was a vote on a resolution, uh, about the annexation of russia and four new territories. i think it's october 23rd. uh this year and 40% of african states voted, either abstained or against.

why don't they just want to fit in some rigid paradigms. they want to settle into the western paradigm, but this does not mean that we should impose our own, we should show them a different picture, not the one that is being created back. here is to explain our position, to explain why we did this, to explain that nato had every opportunity to avoid this crisis, but went so to speak to aggravate with russia that in general this crisis is of western origin. it stems from the expansion of nato, i must say that i understand this. it is understood in india it is well understood in china they understand it, in pakistan they understand it, in morocco they understand it, they understand it in egypt, and in saudi arabia, that is, they understand that it's not easy. here russia has taken, so to speak. there is no beginning, that this has a backstory to the zap. he is trying to destroy this backstory and start everything from february 24, as steinmeier, the president of germany, said. yes, everything was fine until 24. you are sure not until 24 there was a coup in ukraine, there were these

executions on the maidan. and there was an attempt. it means to suppress the donbass with the help of terror ukrainian radicals tried to get to the crimea to establish terror there. listen to the shelling were 12,000 people died. stan mayer says before the 24th we were moving into a beautiful future. no why does he say that? and, because the west is responsible for everything that happened before the 24th , because they stood behind this ukraine , they turned a blind eye to neo-nazi movements. there they turned a blind eye to the torchlight procession. they turned a blind eye to the shelling. they turned a blind eye to what zelensky plucked constantly, and before him poroshenko minsk agreements. so we have to show this reality. and in those countries outside the western world, they know this well, the west, because they themselves suffered from it . there it will be perceived by us. we should not impose a paradigm on them. we must

offer an alternative information picture. they will see for themselves. how fair is it, if we return to the topic of the information prostitute by standing out the information war, as the west calls it, it is clear that on our territory the west lost this information war, but do we have a chance to get through with this a? paradis we with this new vision to the west , i have a reserved attitude towards making the west now the primary object of our information efforts. that is, i am not saying that this should not be done, but in the west there is a certain group of people, well, as a rule, experts and bloggers, by the way, who are ready to perceive information coming from russia, and i want to say, that these people have already formed earlier, as opponents of the western approach, so now despite the fact that yes, of course, you need to work with these people, but change, uh, position approach. e

leaders. uh, the ruling elite, more precisely, yes. uh, western western state. eh, the united states of america, of course, we will not succeed, because there, you know, there is such a wall of fire. here is informational, and here is the same world sudden yes , it is receptive. and this is where we must stop our efforts, especially since our supplies of gas and oil will be relocated here. uh, everything that we sell there is said - and you, we are their power plants there. everything that we sell in foreign markets and from here we will receive the largest volume of goods, you also understand. these are the new new centers of power of economic power, and of political influence these are countries such as brazil argentina mexico and india pakistan iran china egypt and algeria. well , even the united arab emirates, where it seems to me that the center of our efforts should be, is now

not the western world, which is turning into our main trade, economic and political partner alexei konstantinovich thank you for finding time answered our question. thanks to the north-eastern olympiad for schoolchildren on the profile of native languages ​​from this nationality and it is very important to pay special attention to the preservation of national languages ​​and culture. tell us more about the north-east school olympiad. what gives her new status today in russian schools are studied 105 native languages, and 24 of them are taught 81 are studied optionally or subjectively, but uh, in recent years there has been such, and not a very good trend. this decline interest in the study of native languages, the key event in resolving this issue was the visiting meeting of our committee on yamal in april last year, where it was decided to work out the issue of holding the federal olympiad in native languages ​​with the provision of preferences for the winners and prize-winners of this

olympiad when entering higher educational institutions. we have determined that the north-eastern federal university is the most suitable for this olympiad, since they have already held the north-eastern olympiad and schoolchildren in their native language. as a result, we gave federal status to this olympiad and we had the first trial stage of this kind, well, it was also quite large-scale, because 3.5 thousand took part, and uh, 167 children became diplomats winners and winners of this olympiad, and uh, including among 42 was the child of a graduate, but the current year, which just received these preferences when entering e, c. e. six universities sar organizers. we have significantly expanded the scale of holding this olympiad. not just the scale, but also the geography of this olympiad, since we have, and this year, not 18 regions, but 30 regions of universities,

the number of organizers has grown from six to eighteen, and this year we are holding an olympiad in 29 native languages. and in principle, it is not difficult, but it is enough to register on the website of the olympiad to receive, e, the corresponding olympiad tasks, but online, and solve them. naturally, with the preservation of all the security conditions for holding the olympics, and further already, and wait for an answer. uh, do you pass or do not pass to the final stage of the olympiad, which will be held in february next year. rima fedorovna, you have already mentioned that the prize-winner and winner of this olympiad are given preferences when entering a higher educational institution. they could have a little more detail. on this, for sure, to many future applicants. it will be interesting this year. we are very serious, and we have worked out the questions of the olympiad tasks. and so this year, and we held a conference platform. uh,

kazan state university made a speech and summed up, uh, all the olympiad tasks from 11 denominators. in order for a without entrance examinations, but to enter e, higher educational institutions on the basis of e victory in the olympiad, it is necessary to score 75 points in the russian language, and each university , e, dictates its own conditions, and hmm, preferences for e diplomats of the olympiad diploma students are prize-winners and the winner all these conditions. a-a are posted on the website of the higher educational institution and the guys. uh, can uh, initially familiarize themselves with them and, of course, they already understand whether they correspond or not , and next week the council of legislators of parliament will discuss the socio-economic development of russia and its regions in the context of adaptation

to new challenges, the senators will touch upon the issue of accelerated registration of medicines and medical devices under sanctions pressure. we will hold parliamentary hearings on the state of the aviation industry in russia we continue to follow the most important events in the federation council see you in a week in the senate program. hello this is to lead alexander ki.
