opinion, it is much more interesting to observe how life in the donbass of the zaporozhye and kherson regions is changing in the new russian regions with the help of a careful look at the history of novorossia. we will try to reveal the originality of her present day, to find in it typical features and recognizable signs of the past. and that's what we'll talk about today. defenders of new russia yesterday's hard workers today wars, how miners and metallurgists became a combat-ready army a conversation with an expert of the program, when they say the guns of the muses are still not silent, theatrical life of donbass these days the country celebrates the day of the defender of the fatherland in a special atmosphere. today, from

the traditional and even somewhat ritual men's day of the professional military holiday and those who have ever served in the army , it has again become the day of warriors. all those who stood up for the defense of our fellow citizens and compatriots of their near and dear borders of the fatherland and its sovereignty, their hundreds of thousands of professionals contract soldiers volunteers mobile infantrymen tankers special forces artists signalers pilots and fighters of many other specialties, and not courageous, skillful disciplined and know what they are fighting for at the front or, as they say now, on the line of contact. there are tens of thousands who are fighting for their homeland because of our common fatherland for more than a year. these are fighters. and then the people's militia of the donetsk and lugansk people's republics, those who in 2014 became the core
11:35 am
of the army of novorossia, then in the spring of 2014 - this is there were ordinary men who were indignant at the lawlessness of the euromaidan, left their machines and mines and practically with their bare hands. they went to stop the armored personnel carriers and tanks of the armed forces of ukraine. then they took up arms, because they did not want to forget their history, they wanted to speak and teach their children in their native language , they were not ready to become part of anti-russia. they quickly became disciplined and skilled military men, ordinary people with civilian professions turned into real warriors. a soldier is discipline, subordination, order and duty of a soldier a large and highly organized warrior machine - this is courage and strength. skill initiative. this is a soldier with great experience and high motivation,
11:36 am
whose character was hardened in the difficult conditions of the war, speaking about these people of the president of russia and the supreme head , the commander highly appreciated the quality of the defenders of donbass and novorossia. i want to say that your man is very worthy , just very effective. december 202 the first and second army corps of the donetsk people's republic and the lugansk republic, as well as the donetsk higher general the claim command school was included in the armed forces of the russian federation , russian president vladimir putin handed over the battle colors to this formation in 2014. in
11:37 am
the story of anna efimova, marinka, the nearest suburb of donetsk, has been fighting in this area since 2015. it is nice here. we dug in. all these years from here. shelling of residential areas of donetsk was carried out, because of which civilians died . today, our artillery tanks are actively working in the fortified areas. in essence more than yourself almost all the work is going on around the fields our direction is such that we have, in essence, only trenches and industrial buildings. it is clear that before the fight anxiety. there are a lot of emotions before the fight. all of these are experiences. they accumulate inside you, accumulate accumulate and you go out into the field and complete calmness is detachment, and
11:38 am
only just the other day we recorded the work on the most advanced valley of the front, only a few hundred meters during the interview, now and then you can hear the sounds of arrivals and exploding shells. well, i'm a driver, 252. and before that, i served on breme evacuated equipment from the battlefield, when we were knocked out at marinka , the commander and gunner lost consciousness, and i decided to withdraw the tank into the battlefield through a minefield. those fighters who fought in the battles near debaltsevo and ilovaisk took control of the danilsky airport before the war came to the donbass. these people worked as rescuers, tractor drivers , miner drivers, whoever and everyone had their own reason to go to war. my son was born , the war began, they started shelling donetsk and i made a decision for myself that
11:39 am
i can protect my family. only i myself will not take care of anyone, since i can do this in any case, if we would not go on the offensive. they would have come to us in the first step. ukraine and the collective west supporting it constantly crossed the red line of the explosion of the minsk agreements and the time that , instead of resolving the conflict, was used by kiev to prepare for a large-scale war against the inhabitants of donbass today they are already openly and without a twinge of conscience talking about this, former leaders of france germany and the most independent and, of course, endless. pumping up ukraine's weapons, we are heavy equipment after a long spo , western countries nevertheless agreed on the rate of tanks of american abrams and german leopards. however, our fighters are ready to give them a warm welcome. what can i say, abrams leopards, challengers. everything and they all burn, they all burn in the same way , the towers will fly off. everything and the earth will burn and the metal will burn, we are not afraid of them, we
11:40 am
will eat them all, let them come. we will show, donbass, the nature of the militias, volunteers mobilized contract soldiers all in one trenches. this was already a single military brotherhood . and after the liberated territories of donbass became part of russia , it is, in principle, inappropriate to separate its fighters. let's do this with russian now russian military personnel. well, as for the motivational component, there’s nothing to say, they don’t understand the real goal, the real threat, which concerns not only donbass. yeah, in russia , our common motherland. that is why many volunteers from different regions of russia began to come here even before the start of mobilization far east siberia urals and of course, the neighboring kuban, the one about which the ukrainian nationalists shouted from ukraine today to the enemy's system, has changed more aggressively with them. countries. they felt that there
11:41 am
was some kind of confidence behind them. uh, some power. now this is no longer the case. initiative. e, today e are in the hands of our divisions of the russian division, we see a steady and confident progress of our divisions forward. we see, uh, weekly reports on the liberation of the territory , we see, uh, how the morale of our units, uh, rises and apparently back opposite results. directly at the esu, while shells are exploding at the front, the hearts of anastasia , a paradise student from st. she communicates with him regularly. my dad left on contract last year. he is a talented mechanic to life and at the front. he now found himself in his tasks. includes transportation of the wounded, transportation
11:42 am
of the dead, and he also carries fighters to the front line after talking with his father anastasia writes poems, publishes them on the internet and says that this is her way to support and hug each fighter, and while days with a bloody dawn you lead the smell of a wild beast on your shoes, warming yourself, mariupol anastasia says that sometimes especially brave opponents criticize her on the net, however . eyes never, well, the significance of such support for the fighters who are now on the front lines is difficult to overestimate ; it is important to receive news from home ; possible promotion. forward. well, we see support from people all the time. that is, we have correspondents. they constantly bring letters from cities and schools. eh, normal. uh, toys are ordinary origami kids who are just
11:43 am
trying to endure their support for us. that is , it is also very touching and causes such a feeling there, cool here in the trenches. donbass is in victory, no one doubts , as well as that they are right, in the end, what they called in russia took pictures of the answers to another kiev abbreviation, and then the so-called anti-terrorist operation during which kiev has been killing people in the donbas for years anna esenova le savelievna anastasia popova typical novorossiya we will talk with our permanent expert historian political scientist alexander vasilyev about how yesterday's miners and metallurgists became a combat-ready army. sasha good afternoon. hello ukrainian propaganda since 2014 literally. here, from the first days, uh, the beginning of the anti-terrorist so-called in
11:44 am
ukraine is an operation in the donbass when they began to use and the armed forces against unarmed people all the time, ukrainian propaganda told that they were actually fighting not with the militias, but with the russian army. it really was so really the backbone and the basis of the personnel who fought against the ukrainian army these years, and the ukrainian so-called kindnesses were, of course, the natives of donbass at certain critical moments, and there really was combat support from russia i assure you that here in the front ranks, and here are the guys who have even at that time, everyone had formally, and blue passports yes, ukrainian ones, as in a short time, the donbass militia could become a very combat-ready armed force. that's what brought these people together, what organized them. let's take a look at and even outstanding er, there
11:45 am
commanders, for example, the majority militia, oh, who are no longer with us commanders. ah, the first wave. and here we can givi and mikhail tolstoy yes, and alexei mozgovoy and alexander zakharchenko and none of them directly worked at the moment when he took up arms, uh, not in mine. uh, not in a rolling mill there. yes, these were people often, uh, from small businesses and the service sector. that is, just those who find it easier, but make a decision to radically change. relatively speaking, your life, if you are a taxi driver there, or if you have a super small coffee shop of your own and if you are an it specialist, yes, because it is considered like all it specialists, for some reason they are yes, creative, no, donetsk creative class is definitely , but in the first wave, all the same, if we talk specifically about the proletarians, there were not so many of them as about it is customary to say this, and when they began to turn it into e, in the fifteenth year, two corps, yes, which, according to the staff list, in fact, it was a kind of model
11:46 am
of the russian army, transferred to the donbass and staffed by these people. and just then , many enterprises stopped. yes, and many. here are people like this, so to speak, proletarians. yes, they already, but began to pour into , uh, these corps, but on the contrary, many such passionaries. yes, they began to leave them for and, for example, in donetsk, i can say this to anyone who has been there over the years, there is nothing surprising and there, let's say you call a taxi, you go with a driver. he's for you and i'm here in the fourteenth year here we fought here, well, such a story and absolutely. that is , this person is not boastful. tse-this is not somehow trying to present itself so to speak. and this is part of his biography. yes, because when we are talking about this military sphere. we must clearly understand that there are two fundamental things, but to fight and serve in the army. this is not the same thing. and donbass proved when we say now that these donetsk corps, which well, that's how i'll honestly say, yes, that's how i varnished reality had a lot of problems in them. during these 8
11:47 am
years. you suddenly started fighting. these are intense ones along the entire huge front, and they showed themselves perfectly, what is it about yourself? well, the president said it. yes, why is that, because this is a fighting army, yes, and this experience of war it is impossible to replace it with any training, but to replace we see that the war is not very maneuverable. yes, in fact. from the same donetsk, here is directly the front front next to the neck with a day. he practically didn't move. that is, absolutely the same war is going on there now, which people have already got used to, which they have been waging for these years. it’s just that now their hands, well, are developing to a greater extent, because we know these minsk ones. the agreement and they really tried to fulfill them, yes, and this again was not popular with the donbass military , many left, because well, the wills of the armed forces became in them again in the twenty- second year. yes, because, well, under the terms of the minsk agreements, it looked completely. otherwise, here, uh, they are. well, the main factors in this sense, and the main thing, of course, is motivation, that is, people literally fight on their own land. and in the donbass it is for
11:48 am
obvious reasons. well, you came out of the middle, you said so today, uh, the corps of the people's militia of the dpr of the lc became part of the armed forces of the russian federation. what does this mean for yesterday's militias, and how will it affect? you know what experience this will give the armed forces of the russian federation here. i would really like to happen, well, as it were, all the best was taken from one system from another and united we would get even more results on the one hand. and i'll start talking. sides yes, here is the donbass yes on the one hand, of course, there are social guarantees and social standards for military personnel, because here our viewers must understand this huge difference that is adjacent between a volunteer and between a person who was mobilized and either served on a contract and takes part military actions. when you volunteer, no one will receive any
11:49 am
payment if you die there or disability. and no one, uh, no matter how you get any pension there. i've been hmm as in the fifteenth year i worked in donetsk. alexander zakharchenko and i made such a direct line, that is, citizens addressed him and a significant part of the appeals. it was the people of this were widows. these were their orphans. uh, the fathers died, and fighting in the ranks of the famous battalions. yes, in fact. these people could not even document properly, because we imagine there, what kind of someone there, and there i don’t know the cossack language units in the summer of the fourteenth year, what documents does he have, how can you confirm this? what are you anyway? he fought, and people were already dying, and so on. and uh, now it is very important that we already in the russian federation, all this needs to be introduced into the legal field, the second, of course, is, uh, the material part of the support. it is clear that, uh, well , it’s an open secret from where, but these corps of the dpr of the lpr, but received the main weapons. but , we will also understand that, of course, not the most
11:50 am
modern systems, but went to provide the buildings, and they, in this regard, so to speak lagged behind, moreover, the most important thing. this is the personal protective equipment of the fighters. that is, it is banal than everyone says body armor and helmets, as for what he will receive. uh, russia and the russian army. uh, i repeat that the russian army receives people who did not serve in the army, but who fought for these eight years, but who fought with an enemy that is superior both in numbers and, uh, in terms of armaments there , and so on and so forth. this experience is not appreciated. i think that it is very important not to let this experience get lost. and so you remembered there pro-revolutionary civil war, you know? what careers did people make when yesterday's non-commissioned officer? yes, he quickly took out a dekomdilo, yes, yes, and then these people are great patriotic non-commissioned officers. first world war yes, they became marshals of victory and now it should be
11:51 am
the same, that is, it is very important to give these people your e, pass on your experience, but this war, but hmm, so to speak, the russian professional army. there should be no nazma here. and here, on the contrary. this is how cooperation should be. and now, i think this, too, needs amazing attention. thank you very much for a very interesting story. when the guns speak, we will be silent. this is a well-known phrase that during the war there is no place for art, there is no place for beauty, especially when guns are talking. this is not a metaphor, but the daily shelling of donetsk and other cities of donbass and novorossiya to gather spectators for a performance in such a situation. it means risking their lives and health, but the artists working at the donetsk opera house are still rehearsing and planning new premieres. last year the theater celebrated its 90th anniversary, they gathered to celebrate the opera prince
11:52 am
igor but the military escalation has changed plans now the performance is being prepared for order in the crimea and as soon as it becomes possible they will gather spectators and in donetsk in the plans of the donbass opera another premiere, together with the moscow kremlin ballet, is staging war and peace to the music of vyacheslav ovchinnikov and here is the poster of the luhansk academic ukrainian music. the grammar theater on the defensive is planned until the end of february. performances are on the big and small stages in the repertoire of fairy tales for children of russian and soviet classics. operettas and musical performances the scenes of the last season's premiere of a rock opera dedicated to the eightieth anniversary of the krasnodon youth underground organization do not converge. the young guard is led by a corpse people's artist of the ussr and the lpr in the past soviet film actor mikhail golubevich. he starred in sergei bondarchuk's novel balayan.
11:53 am
pavel lungin and the plans of another theatrical group of novorossia, the corpses of the mariupol drama theater in the story of olga mokhova because of the thousand wheels from end to end of the column , the cars were smashed and again the waves from the hill forest to the christmas tree on both sides goes further to the figure eight. it was, of course , the soldier's and the share of the performance based on the chapters of the poem by alexander tvardovsky vasily terkin, designed for traveling performances, the mariupol theater team dedicated to the eightieth anniversary of the liberation of donbass from german occupation, the resilient hero under no circumstances, the lightness of the story and the heartfelt song appealed to both mariupol rescuers and schoolchildren see, but something of the theater, because i'm
11:54 am
really already destroying it, we haven't gone for a long time it will be really interesting to see. and even more so, we will study this composition in the eighth grade. the last time i was in the theater, i don't know, maybe two years ago. well, somewhere in the gram theater, as it was somewhere a long time ago. well, in general, i like to go to the theater. today we are very pleased that the theater is such a success. this is not the first performance that we hold an away performance. that 's why every time the artists give all their best at the time of preparing our story , the corpse was preparing to move and lived with expectations full-fledged rehearsals after the theater building was blown up on march 16 last year, its team was literally left without a house; part of the structure cannot be restored. meanwhile, the artists sought to return to work at the end of may, because how to live without a stage and spectators. now we are moving to the philharmonic. and before that, we were in the pioneer house, it was
11:55 am
cool, until the renovation began, of course, it froze in the fall. but now i think everything will be fine. we will move and get our own comfortable stage, comfortable fittings. here we believe, the best, the future in august , the mariupol theater has a new artist. the natural director alexander rostov left his family in moscow and a good job behind him, a great acting director's experience tells that he offered his help in organizing the front concert brigades . not numerous, but 15 people. collected by the corpse of the russian drama theatre, i told my friends, wherever we were for the first 35 seconds. we will be evaluate as fire victims.
11:56 am
well, let's put it this way with a certain amount of pity and understanding, but at the thirty-sixth second it will require art, and they did not disappoint, neither the artistic director nor the spectator, yearning for the usual pre-war life , staged 10 exemplary performances in six months. their productions were attended by over 15,000 spectators , first for free, then for a small fee. during this time, the artists went on stage more than 100 times, and they were called many times to bow to their eldest son. today, 26 artists have returned to their native theater. this is half of the pre-war corpse, a 10 more people of the orchestra and six dance workshops. they live in the same way as all the rest of mariupol among war-torn houses with communal problems, measuring the routine of their lives according to the curfew.
11:57 am
and we continue to live, because thanks to the fact that culture lives, that the theater has revived , the city will revive and our life in our republic will revive , the team has plans for the second half of the theater season. one can say grandiose ahead four premieres are already ready to be shown on the stage of mariupol philharmonic, a performance based on the play by jack monsieur amer, followed by a performance by the roulette diamonds theater, as well as a chic wedding , plans to end the season with a musical based on the novel by alexander sergeevich pushkin dubrovsky breiburg, honored artists of the russian federation, he gave us this creation and he himself will arrive with his wife. vocal teachers with gitis here, uh, in order to master the musical parts. we hope that we will master this material because there are voices, so to speak. and most importantly there is the desire of the builders of
