oh, a serious strategy, and, uh, britain has always worked very actively inside the country inside russia, of course, behind the caucasian warriors, who are now very much raised to the shield. it certainly has always been the hand of britain, which sent thousands of emissaries there in the spring of 1.000.834 , a young man descends from a british warship under cover of night on the caucasian coast of the black sea. his name is davidward. a 28-year-old english intelligence agent arrived in the caucasus to unite the highlanders and work out their tactics actions against russian troops. i have seen documents in the archives and library of the board of india of the british library, from which it is clear that it was money in order to make it as successful as possible. fought with the russians. weapons that are

in service circassian committees are being created. well, just like chechen committees were created around the council of europe. here in the recent past. i myself witnessed them with these posters, and so on there was even my own akhmed zakayev, who appropriated the exclusive role of a diplomat, some ishmael barakash. bay he traveled through the capitals and uh, returning to the caucasus u reported that europe is inclined to support us the british parliament is seriously discussing the possibility of creating an independent state of circassia with the support of london

the editorials of the times specify in the caucasus the fate of india is being decided and the highlanders are the last line of defense against russian aggression against the entire civilized world. they pray to the king, they pray to all the old. good england, the land of liberty, give them cannons and skillful artillerymen. if we take this right step. all it will be decided that the bears will not be able to keep the line and the brave highlander will easily teach the scoundrels of hungary to the heart of burma and nepal, the russian devil relentlessly pursues and torments the entire human race and tirelessly commits his evil faith irritating our hardworking and exceptionally peaceful empire in exactly

the same way. and in the 19th century and in the 18th century and in the 17th century russia was a barbaric wild, er, uneducated aggressive imperialist country, and this largely became part of the western participation of the english consciousness, therefore, russia had a good image in england, er, only twice in its entire history. e. the first time it was in 1917, and the second time in 1991. that is, at the moment when the country was disintegrating. her image of britain in the west was exceptionally good. the actions of britain in the caucasus could not stop the military and political advancement of russia in the black sea and the

middle east under the influence of st. petersburg passes persia the shah refuses the services of british military advisers and invites them instead russians for london is a new russian challenge. and one more confirmation. russia is preparing for a campaign to british india, such plans did not exist in reality, but england decides to create an anti-russian coalition of the central asian states of bukhara on the way of russia, according to its protectors of british intelligence in the region , the border afghan herat becomes british intelligence groups conduct detailed topographic surveys, bite off an officer to the priory british intelligence sent to negotiate in the capital of central asian khanates he served

as an officer in the colony and had his own idea of ​​\u200b\u200bhow an enlightened white man should communicate with uneducated local princes. he just did not take into account that bukhara is a free state under the sole authority and peace. no one was allowed to go to the central square of bukhara on horseback to dastan, except for the world. of course, the colonel 130 ban, but ignored it and rode to the square to his misfortune at that very moment, the world itself with numerous saints eagerly returned after seeing the ruler. the colonel of bukhara did not even get off his horse. according to some reports, a casual nod to others honored this scene, and maybe thousands of people

around, numerous paws and merchants. stodar was captured. the russian military, who closely followed the actions of the british, reported the british to st. petersburg. it looks like the armed invasion of central asia is being prepared for russia in this region for a long time, not real non-professional intelligence officers. the first to become very many brilliant people in 1823, the polish was

convicted of participating in a secret anti-government organization. he began the service of the fortress of european languages. or to orenburg, where he began his career as a military intelligence officer from orenburg, jan vitkevich traveled to bukhara three times, and twice there he met with merchants and ministers with local nobility, trying to understand how much the influence of the british had increased. he convinced the first minister and the world's jackpot that it would be better to trade buchards with russia, then vitkevich heard for the first time the name of his british counterpart , competitor alexander alexander burns captain

artillery talented scout diplomat and linguist in the early thirties of the 19th century visited bukhara under the guise of an armenian merchant from vitkevich's notes kush begi frightened me that the bukhara people would not go to russia but would trade with the british, while pointing out the behrens who did on this account different proposals and answered the cut. that this is empty, that the british under no circumstances can deliver bukhara, we are for india and iron, copper, cast iron, in the case of skirts there are other goods, so that the khartians can take even less goods, because in return for nothing they will give them cotton paper, dried waters and other products of the land , they will no longer be taken by the bukharians. it was jan witkevich who became the first russian ambassador. in afghanistan, translated from persian, afghanistan is the country of silence of the greek

. some chinese elements there was a synthesis of islam and iranian religions, and this is generally not just a zone of contacts. these are very intense interactions. geopolitical point of view this is more than trump it actually is. here the joker is far away from us, like, for example, the united states, like britain and others. now they are in our country and will be here as long as it is required by their interests.

afghanistan by itself does not mean anything; it matters in the conditions of a large region. so it's probably the same game if it's a big game.

cvetkevich arrives in kabul step dost mohammed receives a russian officer in his residence, balakhisar is rather cool at that moment shah already trusts more british envoy. it turns out that alexander, already known to vitkevich from bukhara, he was a brilliant man, became very many languages. and he was very otsen became. he became he became a folk hero, during his lifetime already a very interesting meeting at the christmas dinner. still a christian. this was the only

meeting between the two scouts. once, as a sign of special respect, his fidelity was brought to the shatsk residence on the back of the shah's elephant, he also said that he had been to the punjab before and once visited bukhara, vitkevich modestly remarked that in i also visited bukhara. and three times burns was apparently surprised and disappointed. the fact that the russian embassy is located in a kobol is incredibly disturbing to the governors general of india lord, but britain, of course, was afraid of the growing influence of russia in afghanistan and was afraid that this could affect the position of the british empire in india, making

a serious mistake. he sends access to muhammad, who still had doubts. should he be friends with russia or with england , a personal letter demanding that vitkevich be sent away and never again foreign words without knowing the government of british india accepts vitkevich with all thoughts of friendship and respect between russia and afghanistan, a union treaty is concluded peppers. a strong protest against the hostile activities of witkiewicz, which seriously threaten relations between the two powers. this is an almost verbatim quote . the british foreign office demanded that st. petersburg immediately recall vitkevich, and at the same time the russian ambassador to tehran , semyonovich. and nicholas can't stand the pressure the british, he declares the action of vitkevishch

arbitrariness and withdraws the russian guarantees from the treaty with access. russia transmits for the first time on may 1, 1839. ivan vitkevich arrived in st. petersburg and settled in the paris hotel on malaya morskaya street with him. he brought an extensive archive of travel records to kabul bukhara and persia. on the morning of may 9, vitkevich was found shot dead in his room, according to the official version. he committed suicide , among other things, because he could not bear the shame of actually betraying those who believed him according to another version of vitkevich, the afghans were killed by english agents, because the entire archive of the paper scout from several huge chests disappeared without a trace. however, it is not so important who or what killed rekevich, the cowardice of russian officials or british spies. it is important that the russian political retreat of the table is a prologue, like

the glavgan war. it can be said that without the fear of britain before the advance of the russians in central asia they never entered. they could inflict a military defeat on britain. the british should have understood the danger of an afghan campaign ten years earlier by a british intelligence officer. arthur connelly traveled all over afghanistan and then analyzing the chances of the russians to seize india, he wrote that afghanistan is capable of burying the most

carefully developed plan of any european general staff. if the afghans, as a nation, concluded konnels, decide to resist the invader, but the difficulties of the campaign can easily become insurmountable, in principle, this has happened for 150 years. later already. true of course they are with the russian imperial, and the soviet army. however words. are horses became a harsh prophecy for all the conquerors, in general for the british in the first place, they very soon felt. this is on itself just a few years later during the first chapter of the afghan war, and even today for the us military in afghanistan, little has changed, their columns are still attacking from the same mountain shelters. well, except that the weapons are now, of course, modern. they have no national consciousness. i think this is not true. it's not a nation our way, it's not a state our way, but it's a state, i'm in

danced against a friend. they all howl against this 1838 foreigners, british armies and troops. shah leaves a lot of space. they go as the officers of one of the regiments are on an easy walk, only loaded with cigars in august 1839, the british troops enter. nicholas win in the first period. you too well

storm palace. it was not difficult from the point of view of the christian operation, and the americans also had a perfect victory in the first months, and then you and we americans made a big mistake. we tried to stay there. english felt at home alexander who again became a political adviser. the shah lived in a mansion. with the grief of afghan women. many officers brought their wives and children to kabul. they arranged ice skating entertainment.

on november 2, 1841, the rebellion against the british begins. alexander was the first to be killed, he himself was torn to pieces by the crowd, his house was burned down , british troops did not come out to suppress the rebellion. not in the first hours. not on the first day. shah-shu-jak climbs into balakhisar, as a result, already on november 3, at the end, the british knew they were scared. january 1, 1842 after a long siege of the english military camp, a treaty is concluded, which, along with the british, seals 18 tribal leaders on january 6, 16,000.

the british of them military only 4 1/2 thousand the rest of the women and children of the camp servants come out of kabul in india, an almost unarmed detachment is drawn into the hartko-bulskaya omission by the british by the time the head of the refugee column reached. there were still hundreds of wounded half-frozen people in it. nobody took them away. there was no one to carry them. totally agree the first day the afghans carried out more than 13 attacks. an eyewitness wrote that it was a terrible march. we walked in an unknown direction, blindly under the sparkling snow under continuous enemy fire and many officers and soldiers died, women and children froze to death, falling asleep on the bare ground, by the end of the fifth day, two-thirds

of the civilians were killed, the military by that moment only 700 people remained alive soldiers and officers all the way, retreating from kabul especially in the gorge was littered with bodies killed by electro blood. most of the dead were undressed nadezhda was taken away by the survivors, to somehow keep warm at night and during the fierce winter service, out of sixteen thousand who came out from near kabul, only one dr. brian healed the english on january 14 from the wounded and perfect and becoming hungry. he got to the border of british india remembers the retreat, when there was the last battle of the 33rd regiment in the gondomake and the fact that almost everyone was killed. so i think that the first afghan war can be considered a mistake in september the british return to afghanistan with a punitive expeditions. it enters the kambul again, blows up

the kobul crypt, the market erases the earth from the forest. a number of quarters rob the city and leave the country in revenge, and the rulers of afghanistan again get access to mohammed for the sake of overthrowing which the british spent 25 million pounds. they managed to conquer the afghanistans, to ensure stability in afghanistan in the 1840s. then probably. they might decide that yes, now they can try to make bukhara and khujand dependent states and prevent the expansion of russia, but, of course, britain's attempts to control afghanistan in the 1840s were disastrous and the british abandoned it. auto yes, if you can’t control afghanistan, then about a campaign in central asia it remains only to dream , you know, the british in afghanistan and the world of bukhara decided not to stand on ceremony with their english prisoners, there were already two of them

to release the colonel of stodart to bukhara secretly. captain arthur connelly arrived, but he was also exposed and thrown into an underground prison , and the world was ready to forgive them, but he never received a personal answer to the letter sent to the queen of england. the queen handed over the answer is in the hands of india that the khan was very offended. it was just one more drop. on the scales that decided the fate of the british intelligence officer captain arthur connelly , ironically, it was he who came up with the phrase big game and colonel charles todd were executed by order and peace in a boozer on a hot june morning of 1842. this happened quite often in

the 19th century, there were imperial agents who operated far beyond the borders. empires failed and had to, so that there would be no reason in britain to send an army to central asia , several russian agents died under such circumstances because they went too far.

we install, open, watch russian channels and all movie series, cartoons and documentaries.

watch around the clock the information channel russia 24 and dali on our air, the continuation of the documentary film by andrei medvedev , the big game in the spring of 1839 22-year-old

heir to the russian throne, grand duke alexander nikolayevich, who arrived on a visit to london, met the young queen victoria due to the lack of worthy candidates. she was a provincial girl and a tall handsome man who knew six languages, a brilliant young man , an erudite man, became something incomprehensible to her and what she had not seen, joint hunting trips around the country began to come in front of her. it lasted somewhere around five months, a five-month romance, and then the terrible roundabout of nicholas i in st. petersburg would follow. come back

urgently, and he not quite politely threw war on england. she was on her yacht and seeing off the british the ships leaving in the crimea of ​​russia are simply here with all my soul.

alexander ii ascends the throne in 1855, a year before the end of the crimean war, the prologue to the crimean war became , concluded in 1833 between russia and the ottoman empire, the unkar from the kelissia peace treaty, its provision gave russian ships the right to freely pass from the black sea to the mediterranean, and in its own in turn, russia got the opportunity to block the passage through the turkish straits of the bosphorus and danel military ships of third countries. france and england categorically revived from that moment on, any negotiations, any important matters with the mediterranean region, always interfered with his participation there too. here, after this , the movement of the crimean war begins, and the demands of nicholas to place the orthodox subjects of the turkish sultan under the special patronage of the russian tsar are rejected.
