security conference warned that germany's stocks could run out in the foreseeable future, us reserves due to the shipment of ammunition to ukraine also fell to a critical level, the wall street journal reports, while the publication transmits the words of military analysts that russia, on the contrary, will be ready to expand production. new classified documents found on joe biden, this time papers relating to the period of the democrat's vice presidency were found in biden's private home. in the state of delaware, this was reported by the lawyer of the head of state , six pages containing state secrets were found in a room near the garage, previously secret papers. biden-linked washington office found. the white house insists the documents got there, by chance the frosts began to recede in most regions of the country, but the warming brings new weather surprises to the magadan region. today, an emergency warning was announced and swept up the volsk region on

the coast. winds up to 20 m/s are expected, public road services are given in the high alert regime sweeps the altai territory as well. there, the movement of vehicles was restricted on the federal highway from barnaul to aleysk; trucks and buses were prohibited from passing; a snowstorm with a wind of up to 27 m / s reduced visibility on the roads at times; groups of rescuers advanced to the aleysk region. they will be on duty, the most dangerous sections of the route, yellow level of weather danger this morning. trees and be more careful on the roads, the risk of accidents in such weather increases significantly in yakutia today, there is no wind, but it is still very cold in the morning. meters at the weather station in the gorny region recorded minus 62 in roskosmos developed plans for the emergency return of astronauts to earth in the event of an emergency

at the station there is no more talk of additional safety net, while all systems are working properly let me remind you that the soyuz ms-22 docked to the iss was damaged by a meteoroid, and the next soyuz will arrive only on february 22. how will to act if anything happened before his arrival, anton podkorenko found out. the crew of the soyuz ms-22 will be able to return to earth in the event of, say, an emergency even before the arrival of the new soyuz ms-23 spacecraft to the iss, the current ms-22 is damaged, but not so seriously that it could not be used during an emergency cosmonauts sergei prokopiev and dmitry petin and evacuated to ms-22 american astronaut on his day a case of a hypothetical situation that could suddenly happen chances - this is extremely few. this astronauts will have to leave the station on their ships and the experts decided that it would be easier to do

this in the following way to transfer his wife from the american astronaut. frank rubio into the spacecraft, and in the soyuz ms-22 spacecraft, leave two lodgements under the russian cosmonauts of the american astronaut's chair. it was decided, just in case, to temporarily move to crew dragon already on january 17. on january 18, if necessary, the descent to the ms-22 of two cosmonauts instead of three is more safe , they say simply in space. this will help reduce temperature and humidity in the ship, which suffered from the ingress of an element of space debris into it; the circuit of the external radiator was depressurized. however, soyuz ms-22. in working order. during the landing, the astronauts will be in a rescue suit. falcon they have their own life support system. inside, they are connected to the ship's system and respectively. yes, it will be on the one hand. perhaps not as comfortable as descending under normal conditions. but it will be

safe enough talking about additional safety net. not more than that now systems and international space stations and alliances. ms-22s are working normally, they emphasize in luxury the new ship will dock to the iss in an unmanned mode already on february 22, and then five seats or other americans will transfer rubio to the ms-23 union and the crew will return to earth according to the usual scheme. anton poskorenko diana makurina news. the song and dance artists of the central military district support the soldiers in the special operation zone and perform not only in assembly and concert halls, but also on the front lines. from the location of one of the units near the front line, an impromptu stage for the artists was built from a wooden deck , the concert went off with a bang. here are the guys who arrived, who are also servicemen with ansam. fuck us with a big concert and thank you very much supported us were not afraid to go at this time already, firstly, this is my job. and,

of course, you need to hold the boys who work here, everyone, at least, how do you relax them a little. we all come to droop, that is, people are tired and tired. that is, after the concert, we at least have a little of them we arrange, and now a smile appears , it says what the crimean corridors are and why it has long been of strategic importance for our country hello. kirill vyshinsky is with you, and this program is a typical novorossiya. our new name says it all, we will talk about the territory that has returned to its historical roots. about novorossiya. we will

continue to follow the ukrainian processes. we will analyze them. and yet today, in our opinion, it is much more interesting to observe how life will change in the donbass , zaporizhia, kherson regions in new russian regions with the help of a careful look at the history of borussia. signs of the past. and that's what we'll talk about today. black and muratsky way history of land road, crimea crimean corridor conversation with an expert of the program in europe way, along which water comes to crimea for a long time,

the road to the crimea was a strategic direction for the movement of people and goods; a difficult test for merchants , travelers and military people ; trips to constantinople squads of the kiev princes. along these roads, the cavalry of the steppes made on the run to the russian and the earth. the crimean tatars and nogais brought, captured in a balloon, the inhabitants of the lithuanian principality and the moscow the involuntary worm of the current feodosia went to the crimea and the famous chumansky. the route connecting the ports of the azov and black seas with little and central russia in the 16th-19th centuries by the most famous routes to the crimea of ​​the 17th century. there were two well-trodden roads

- black and muravsky way along them. maki carriers of salt introduced the chains of their vases drawn by the black shafts . the steppe went west towards the traditional grain regions of volyn and zhytomyr region, it was called black because of constant dangers of robber attacks, muravsky. way he, in ancient times, the salon route stretched from the crimea and from the sea of ​​\u200b\u200bazov to the northeast through the extent of the present donbass through the lands and southern russia towards kursk orel and tula, trade concentrates chumakov lost their significance, the railway comes to replace one of the first odessa bolta appeared in novorossiya in the second half of the 19th century it went for state money and lasted

about 3 years, the project supported the last gu in every possible way. novorossiya general pavel kotsybu at the end of the 19th century, the road was extended through kharkov to moscow in soviet times, the transport corridor from central russia to crimea to the azov and black sea coasts, which ran through the historical lands of novorossia, was one of the busiest after the events of 2014, ukraine interrupted road and rail links with russia traffic between the peninsula and the rest of russia was restored only thanks to the construction of the crimean bridge, and in june 2022 russia opened a land corridor to the crimea and did it again accessible road communication with the peninsula along the mainland about the crimean corridor plot anna efimova crimea early

morning it is still quite dark on the street, but numerous trucks are already starting to be drawn to the junk from here. they move towards the nearest checkpoint and checkpoints. inspection road is not always easy. we are at customs customs, we are making out, well, 10-15 minutes. but to get to the customs here, at this dzhankoy customs, here is an x-ray. i'm not saying anything, we went through x-ray problems. no. well, to get to that x-ray. you arrived at the border at 8:00 am, and left it at 5 pm last time somewhere the same approximate distance. we crossed paths in 3 hours sergey kulakov a trucker with more experience driving more cargo. for 30 years, sergey has been gliding all over europe, but now the priority routes in his transport company have changed for objective reasons . today, crimea is one of the most sought-after and strategically important areas. in general, if this is the case

, it is more convenient to understand here. firstly, and closer even in terms of mileage hmm nobody even talked about it arguing is not going to argue, but it’s just that there are just some nuances at checkpoints and sometimes there are demands for hours. security, of course, has not been canceled. actually , the land corridor to the crimea just started working in full force after the terrorist attack on the crimean bridge, the crossing had to unload the route from genichesk, kherson region. given in the azov dpr, they were restored as soon as possible. now the repair work is already at the finish line. we transport almost all the problematic sections of the golden road to goose-crystal soda. we constantly carry and endure small road inconveniences there. and so for the crimea well , of course, this supply is like a blood artery. it can be said where else such cargo stands can not be handled by ferry. moreover, the operation of the ferry for crossings is completely dependent on weather conditions. in the season of storms. this leads to a transport

collapse in kerch, a centurion is going to. and when it comes to perishable products, the delivery time should be predictable; last time it was 8 days by ferry. uh, there was a queue at security normally. unscathed after in 2014, the crimean peninsula, which decided in a referendum to join russia for several years, actually turned into an island. ukraine blocked all transportation and delivery of goods through its territory for dessert, preparing the residents of crimea also an energy and water blockade, according to the dominoff principle. logistics on the mainland in the neighboring kherson and donetsk regions also came to desolation after 14 years. and all this transport communication is dead. uh, ukraine through the dnr and lnr. didn't miss the bus. they reached the points passes further people were transplanted and actually any border

crossing by a citizen of ukraine in the dpr and lpr. it was considered a violation of the state border of ukraine, the construction of the crimean bridge solved the problem with transport. rtnoy however, it's all the same. there was a connection with the mainland. now there is an alternative land route, a route about 300 km long runs along the coast of the sea of ​​\u200b\u200bazov, on the way from crimean dzhankoy to rostov-on-don , the driver passes melitopol, berdyansk , mariupol, another azovsk, goods on the new route are transported daily to sotnir. cautious with truck drivers in the first phase passed. today, this is already the main uh, our cargo flow, uh, which goes in this direction, about 370 trucks. every day e passes, and columns are formed so that there are no additional problems with inspection at any checkpoint. they didn't

stop us everywhere, they made us a green corridor, right good. thanks everyone. that is, as it were very convenient, much more convenient than walking. one in the future of course, we will also talk about the full restoration of the message by railway, which was interrupted in 2015 . at the moment, the railway lines are more of local importance in terms of infrastructure. they are still cut off from the main russian rail network. and this route is not the most successful, because a-and the branch itself that connects moscow with the crimea, it went right through, and now, as a matter of fact, it goes right through kharkov, dnepropetrovsk. but what is implemented now is a bypass route. but the idea is to connect, crimea and the southern coast caucasus rail transport corridor, how did it? the crimean bridge is by no means on you. it arose back in the soviet years and was implemented in 1953 in the form of a ferry railway

across the kerch strait, the ferry ran regularly until the collapse of the ussr, and it was decided to revive the idea of ​​​​such transportation in our time in the early 2000s, when contacts between the presidents of russia and ukraine vladimir putin and leonid kuchma were frequent. and as it seemed then the products. leonid kuch we even stated that with the opening of the ferry crossing, freight transportation between russia and ukraine will be 30% cheaper. vladimir putin added that this is a good symbol. and one more line of communication between russia and ukraine, however, in the future, ambitious projects to organize a transit transport hub between the northern caucasus and the ports of the northern black sea region remained on paper. it was a period. eh, president kuzma decided that a capsule was buried in the construction of the bridge. all

this was very solemnly interesting and it was already justified then that this was the most direct way and of europe, of course. this colossal colossal economic effect. if it all worked, president yushchenko would not have agreed on the examination of this project, if they had agreed on the hub, if it weren’t for the maidan in a continuous word, if the subjunctive mood of which, as you know, history does not tolerate, and it disposed of in its own way. the bridge was built, but the truth is already under other forced circumstances. and judging by how many tons of cargo are transferred daily to the crimea and back , one bridge is not enough, but anastasia popova was a typical new russia. about history and features of the functioning of the land corridor to the crimea, we will talk today with our permanent expert and political scientist alexander vasiliev's table. sasha good afternoon sasha opening of the overland

corridor through the perekop championship. this is just a fact of geography, such as to say, a standard transport scheme, or is it something more, after all, there is something in this from historical justice. well, there is a saying that geography is destiny, including historical destiny. of course, this is interconnected things and leaves an imprint. but if, ah, we remember the era when the territories only entered the russian orbit. yes, then, uh, we will see that the territories behind there, so to speak, perekop and perekopa, but represented a single space, of course, perekopa this is my outbid , there were fortifications that just in a convenient place covered the entrance to the crimea. i want to remind you that a in history. in general, no one has yet succeeded, and moreover, in the most diverse forces, red and white. e in the great patriotic war at the beginning of our later

no one seriously succeeded in the germans, no one could catch on, so to speak, yes, but if the enemy controlled, uh hmm, at the nearest cool mainland and for good reason. that's when all this had already taken shape administratively as part of the russian empire, then, and the comradely province included not only crimea, but also three mainland counties on the mainland or popol, berdyansk and e, neprovsky, and then only after the revolution. but the seventeenth year and the victory of the bolsheviks , citizens. after that, we know that crimea was separated separately and, at the same time, amazingly. way, and the old one here is the province at the level of local self-government. she was kept guarded by people who connected with these mothers. fuck, i'm here with crimea because there was a feeling that we were about to return to normal functioning of interaction with the mainland lands that adjoin crimea from the north, of course, being cut off from the mainland, crimea turns out to be, well, in an unenviable position, it becomes vulnerable in many respects. i spoke there about the military about the

economic, has not lost its meaning. uh, this land corridor to the crimea after appearance of the crimean bridge. i always thought they lost. and even well, you know, you can often talk about it, but i remember 414 . and that then there was such an opportunity to take my pain, maybe go further. so it turned out not to be implemented, and many believe that it was cheaper. in general, rather than building a bridge, in fact, a bridge, uh, is certainly needed as well, and it is clear that one bridge. well, it’s impossible to fully satisfy the needs, not only of crimea, but , uh, crimea is also an exporter, then there is e in both directions. here is this passenger traffic, and then something else interesting, and what we here, no matter how they do not fully understand, that these new annexed territories, yes, kherson zaporozhye regions, after all, they are in the absence of a full-fledged one. and so to speak, ties with the rostov region there, roughly speaking, through the

donbass. after all, they were tied up in the same way, and in supply not only in military supply, but in civilian supply. and in the crimea , that is, it worked. we have such a huge loop across the bridge, yes, so that here we are with one, so to speak, left hand reached out to the right ear, and then there was a memorable ukrainian terrorist attack, which we should perfectly understand that well, this is, as it were, some kind of accident if the enemy. yes, it turns out to be vulnerable from the point of view of logistics, then in any war you need to wait for a blow there. that's what happened in the end, and we understand that e takes everything there. what security measures are needed cannot be 100% ruled out, but of various kinds. the defeat of this transport artery in the future, therefore it is clear that under these conditions, but a full-fledged , uh, connection with uh, so to speak, with the russian heartland. yes, through and not through the kuban bridge and the crimea yes, but directly, uh, through the rostov

region. yes, it is, of course, very important, well, from all points of view, and there from the economic point of view, probably, first of all. yes, i am military now, as it were, aspects, and not touching, but you need to understand that this corridor is full-fledged even today. now, purely in terms of infrastructure, i’m saying that it didn’t work. why because we have the road, for some reason the road is very interesting, here in the doletovo sea, and this road is part of the european transport corridor, if i'm not mistaken e58, which connects rostov-on-don with vienna. that is, this is generally this late soviet time, there in the eighties a transport corridor was built, because vienna has always been so neutral when pulling out. even in soviet times, she was relatively to us, but loyal and now we see that, in general, in europe it’s not the most anti-russian, but the state yes and this, uh, means a piece the dolyusovsky sea was part of this transport corridor, and there were also large projects to create a full-fledged

highway around the entire black sea. it was very interesting to discuss all this with turkey. that was the road, but it is, despite this status ukrainian times. so, i don't know, you've been there, you've traveled in recent years, she was, well, in a terrible state. she wasn't very good, so to speak. about the good quality of its all sorts of bullish offshoots, generally terrible, to be honest, that's why, when she got it now as if to us, otherwise there i even saw with my own eyes a huge scale. uh, roadworks just because here it can't function to carry such a load, but i repeat. this is just a highway. and there is still, zheleznodorozhnaya vera yes, of course, it is not the main main main main crimea laid there through kharkov dnepropetrovsk, but nevertheless, there are glands there. the road for today is the railroad. here, in the area between the volnovakha and donetsk itself, it is very close to the front line. that is, she is not can be used. but when the military situation allows and it will be possible to launch a full-fledged railway line along, and the entire volovo, sea, of course, this will be

very important and we should be seriously prepared for this. and what else besides the factor of its own and in general the consequences of hostilities can interfere with the movement along this transport corridor, and besides this. well, too. uh, everything related in one way or another to his just isn't directly related to the fighting. unfortunately bandwidth. this is not only the state of the road surface, on which seriously work, but also these various stop checks there, possibly redundant bandwidth extensions. this is probably the number one task in order to make transport fully operational now, there was still a huge load of cargo that is intended for restoration. mariupol, on the same entry point in the novosevskaya area, in fact, a huge transit traffic is superimposed. plus a military one, as it were, well, of course. yes, so to speak, with my own, and the goods are all together, and here is a series of such narrow bottlenecks, which directly need to be embroidered, but purposefully, because when such

an intense transit occurs around it , by itself, life begins to develop. yes, some hotels, refueling shops , markets, yes, it is overgrown with such a one, which, as it were, does not require any investments from the state, people themselves, so to speak, on their own economic initiative. and this is very important. especially for the e part that is adjacent to e, mariupol volkhe, which suffered intensively from the hostilities in difference, for example, there inquiring area. yes. and this is also very important for this, but the traffic, so to speak, transit to the crimea and back. and he, well, would build up. thank you very much for a very interesting story. another waterway to crimea was blocked by ukraine in 2014, when it fell asleep and blocked the channel of the north crimean canal. this is the longest irrigation canal in

europe was built in the sixties of the last century, even under the ussr, with its appearance, the threat of drought on the peninsula was reduced to a minimum neprovskaya water allowed the development of crop farming in the crimea and even the creation of rice plantations. 80% of the water from the canal was used for agriculture and industrial fish farming. in the works, and only 20% was supplied for the water supply of cities and osel after ukraine blocked the canal , the water shortage in crimea amounted to about 260 million cubic meters per year, despite a number of measures to improve water supply. including well drilling, the problem became more and more serious in the summer. 2021 crimeans faced with the transition to water supply according to the schedule reservoirs of the peninsula, due to a three-year drought after the start of a special military

operation, it was possible to establish control over the kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station and all technical facilities along the channel of the north crimean canal. in the kherson region, the canal was unblocked and the water. i went to crimea about the history of this unique hydraulic structure and its present day in the plot of olga mokhova in 1951. the ministry of communications of the ussr in the series great lines of communism issued a stamp dedicated to the north crimean canal. that year, a decision was made to the start of its construction. however, such construction could have begun even under the tsarist regime, for the first time the idea of ​​supplying dnieper water to the crimea was publicly expressed in the 19th century by the founder of the nikitsky botanical garden. christian stevom, a russian botanist of swedish origin, the idea of ​​the construction of the north crimean canal for the first time, clearly crystallized in 1833, when there

was a very big drought in the crimea and there was famine and many villages in the north of the crimea were empty . after it was the second second very large drought that gripped. including the south of russia, a project was even created, but the amount for its implementation turned out to be so fantastic that the construction was postponed until 1916, and soon the empire was no longer up to building for this. the bolsheviks simply returned in the twenties of the last century, then the first reservoirs appeared in the crimea, but a detailed consideration of projects for the reclamation of the crimea and the kherson region of ukraine began only in the fifties. they were fantastic there. for example, uh, uh, make the sea of ​​azov fresh. yes, and there was a project of e-water from the kuban , which, well, it was difficult to implement on the most realistic was just the dnieper water, he won the preparation for construction lasted 10 years

in 1961, it was declared nationwide and 10,000 komsomol volunteers came here, from all over the country, the channel, then so they will call the name of the lenin komsomol before the builders of the soil, the sappers of the great patriotic war left. there are a lot of unexploded ordnance here, then archaeologists. after all, at the crimean earth. the big story is these 400 km, which, the length from kerch to kerch , is actually 11,000 km of various irrigation systems, and, uh, if before the crimea , this water flowed by gravity, then a completely different process begins, because it rose at least 80 m, and it was necessary to regulate all this with these pumping stations. the first channel was made earth, but water losses reached 40% and it was concreted in 1963. water from the dnieper came to red perekopsk, the seventy-first on the kerch peninsula.
