ceased to be. mission? why operation iraqi freedom began in march 2003, already in may of the same year, george w. bush hurried to declare victory in the war against saddam hussein, but the operation itself continued for another 8 years only in september 2010 barack obama officially announced the end of the us mission in iraq but the world did not has come so far by the time of the withdrawal of the main contingent of us troops in 2011, the losses of the country of the coalition members amounted to almost 5,000 military personnel, most of the americans, the patients of the pentagon, the iraqi military and police, more than 19.000. no one knows how many peaceful characters died, and the figures given cause heated debate, according to various sources, from 100 to 300,000, and the magazine is a lancet. stepped over the figure

of 600.000. but it is also civilians and american combatants. the catalyst for interethnic conflict between sunnis and shiites, the law on the ban on the base party was passed by the occupying administration of paul bremer, as a result, not only former military civil servants were left without work, but also the entire sunni intelligentsia. many sunnis have become a social base for islamic extremists. states. only for the first 10 years after the fall of the regime. more than 30,000 terrorist attacks took place in iraq, and in 2013, the protest mood in the sudnitsa provinces turned into an open armed confrontation by the shiite government of the jihadist islamic state captured almost 30 countries, including such large cities as mosul poludzha tekt and roman, about 100,000 and arab christians fled in iraq to the us

military, the operation to liberate mosul began in february 2017 and lasted 6 months according to the wall street journal cancer infrastructure in the period of the fight against gigil exceeded $ 45 billion us financial losses were dozens of times more the congressional research service believes that by 2011 americans spent more on the war in iraq in place of joseph stegletz believes that indirect losses for the us economy and other countries amount to about six trillion, the war in iraq caused irreparable damage to the cultural heritage of the country, in 203 28 museums and galleries were plundered, including the iranian national museum worker, who was considered an object of world cultural, heritage. unesco part of the artefacts was discovered in europe and the usa, a lot of them, including in our

program now, what was happening then is more important than what happened then. and how it affected the current situation in the middle east , of course. it is even reasonable to assume that it was she who became a turning point both for the region and for the world order in terms of the role and place of the united states about iraq, not only let's talk with a knowledgeable interlocutor, but chalabi himself was in the oil sector from the eighty-seventh to the nineties served as minister of oil of iraq after he left for the private sector and has since been considered one of the most authoritative experts in the middle east energy and himself for 20 years. after bush announced victory in iraq , what is the state of the country what has been achieved during this time, iraq arrives in a terrible state. for 20 years, no progress has been made in developing industry, agriculture, the academic sphere was at the level, and

many envied the iraqi infrastructure in general, today there is none of this. i will give a simple example from the moment when in oil arrived in iraq. this was in october, 1927 until 2003, the proceeds from its sale amounted to 283 billion dollars. compare with the revenues over the past 20 years, trillion 400 billion dollars, what was done with this money during the years of the monarchy , the first and second republics built a lot, and in these two decades there is nothing to show, in general, corruption, bribes , endless restaurants and shopping centers, but not a single industrial enterprises. even those that were previously erected no longer function iraq imports almost the entire impression that it is this united the states tried to quit at least, but there are many arab countries. why exactly iraq among the twenty-two arab countries?

iraq iraqis were known as a strong side and a strong people in a sense, the backbone of the entire arab community, having destroyed iraq , the americans got the opportunity to do what they want in the entire arab world. look what happened after 2003 everywhere not only in iraq in lebanon syria yemen libya the arab world. now it is maximally weakened and this consequence of the iraqi war is strong, since monarchical times. iraq firmly supported the arabs in a variety of situations, and during the war with israel and during the period of economic problems, iraq extended a helping hand to other arab countries of the west to lay a hand on the entire arab world. and how do you now assess the personality of adamach, is he dotted with what he deserved as a result, or did fate treat him unfairly? to count latin america, africa, asia, he

made huge mistakes, but he built a nation and created an economy. many got rich. yes, his comrades are advisers, especially the nearest entourage sons, however, did not find a single direct evidence of corruption that was associated with him a casus belli became two charges of involvement in terrorism and a connection with al-qaeda not a single one was uncovered. it is now iraq and al-qaeda and the islamic state and a host of other extremist groups, but none of them were there when i ruled i will give the second charge of having weapons of mass destruction from 1991 to 2003, however, the mission after another after 2003. again searched nothing at all they just wanted to destroy adam hussein maybe was a personal motive. bush jr. believed that with angelic ideas that overwhelmed the soul, if now an honest sociologists hold. research and ask the russians when they

were better at creation or now i think they will choose 60 percent, while now the united states is reducing its presence in the middle east and is gradually leaving it. can this improve the situation before no one had an external influence on iraq to intervene in internal affairs was a prophet, the united states great britain france many countries deeply involved in iraqi affairs which only there are no types of presence from intelligence and so on, but not only that, but also regional powers. iran controls armed groups and a significant part of the economy turkey saudi arabia other arab countries. all of them are seriously involved in the arab politics of not a single prime minister. it is impossible to designate whether they have military bases on iraqi territory, they are present in the south and they are still in the north. they levitate all the air space and this cancer is called

leaving, they will not go anywhere. unless they change tactics. they promised to leave in 2011 nothing like this. thank you. it was also loved. the evolution of the middle east in 20 years , a series of upheavals and tragedies blame everything only on the americans. this means that many people tried to simplify the picture, but still the greatest dynamics were given from washington march 2003 the us and its allies invade iraq saddam hussein's regime is overthrown october 2006 as a result of the merger of radical sunist formations, a terrorist group appears islamic state of iraq in the country a civil war begins between sunnis and shiites in january 2006 the american administration insists on

holding parliamentary elections in palestine. they are won by the islamist movement. hamas more elections in palestine were not held next year militants. the movements have seized power in the gas sector ever since in palestine two and fatah authorities against hamas december 2010 self-immolation. street vendor mohammed bouazizi in tunisia led to riots in the country began the arab spring of the president and flees. arabia , anti-government demonstrations affected algeria egypt morocco jordan sudan and even haman february 2011 egyptian president hosni murak resigned as a result of popular protests. march 2011 dispersal of an anti-government demonstration in a syrian city. dera resulted in an armed uprising. in the first democratic elections

in egypt, the representative of the muslim brotherhood, mohammed of murcia, wins, but less than a year later, in june 2013, the army announced his non-deposition. in may 2014 , the representative of the military abdel, fantah, was elected president of egypt. al-city february 2011 in libya as a result of the uprising of the tribes and nato bombing overthrown its leader otdalivaya ceased to exist as a single state may 2011 president. and obdala salih renounced power and fled to saudi arabia in february 2012 , abdraba mansour hadi was elected president of the country, but a civil war broke out between the sunites and the pro-yaranian swedish houthis group. it continues to this day. july 2011, by mutual agreement, the country was divided into two states of sudan and the republic of south sudan, but after the partition

, constant military conflicts occur in both territories . april 2013 as a result of the merger of branches al-qaeda in iraq syria, a new grouping , the islamic state of iraq and lebanon, or isis, was formed, the purpose of which was to create an islamic emirate on the territory of modern iraq, syria and lebanon and began an operation to liberate the country from militants and gil and other radicals, except for russian pilots and military advisers on assad's side. there were iranian revolutionary guards and lebanese shiite militants, hezbol groups december 2015 in morocco , the government of national unity of libya was created, fayez was appointed as the new prime minister, al-saraj in eastern libya, who back in 2014 declared war on the government in tripoli. the war continues to this day in august 2016 turkey

carried out a large-scale land operation euphrates shield. the goal of the liberation of the northern regions in syria from militants. ilov. as a result, a strip along the turkish syrian border between the cities of jarably and assos came under turkish control. november 2016 army. bashar. assad took syria in february 2017, the iraqi authorities, with the support of the united states, launched an operation to liberate iraqi mosul in june 2017, the syrian democratic on january 18, the turkish army again crossed the border from riga and launched operation olive branch. in the area of ​​the city. afrin. the latest

turkish operation in northern syria iraq called the claw sword was carried out in november 2022, its goal was to liberate the border areas from the militants of the kurdistan workers' party of the yi policy, the apogee of which was the invasion of iraq, we spoke with andrey ziltov from the school of oriental studies at the higher school of economics andrey there were expectations in the region that the us iraq war was causing some problems , even then it was clear to the local political elites that this was a gamble that would not end in anything good, because, unlike the americans, the americans. uh, arab uh, political disputes that i shut up, well , it is clear that this was due, in addition to, uh, everything else, with the obligations that they assumed to saudi arabia. and here they are in such a strange way these

obligations. i mean, security guarantees from hussein's creation. they solved them in such a strange way. e, including the execution of the result is clear the result is known. uh, iraq became the forerunner. uh, actually and to a large extent the source. uh, today we call true or wrong the arab spring, the iraqi fiasco forced a rethink of the situation and the americans of the elite in the region. so after all, it began to be done back in the early nineties, when this regime of two external guarantors of the security of the middle east , for obvious reasons, the united states found itself alone to mount its own the responsibility of this very guarantor of security and turned out to be an interesting situation.

that is, the political elites of the middle east, which for the last 75 years, roughly speaking, lived there in a well-known paradigm, when they had two sponsors, external which could be one the united states, uh, excite the withdrawal towards the soviet union the soviet union excite such a migration towards the united states and suddenly it was all gone. reinvent anew, because it was 75 years old, which did not require much effort. and this is the process of reinvention that began back then today it has taken a fairly tangible form of a turning point.

in terms of the perception of americans. absolutely , this is what is called the next morning in front of the political elites of the middle east, i mean the big middle east in general, the question arose. and what will happen to us? that is, apparently, as we watch the americans begin to run away. why is another question important to us, as a political person who was dependent on the united states of the time. that is, we turn out to be quite ourselves, we turn out, well

abandoned, or something, that is, this is such a story that i named for myself. and now you yourself, that is, the americans turned around and said, well, you guys are now sorting out your own big problems here. we will deal with political ones, which will allow us to continue. maintain your image one way or another. it was in this situation that the processes that we now see in the middle east began. and which ones have we begun to notice? what, it turns out, the united states is not really needed. in fact, the middle east turned out to be the parting word of the americans. now you yourself, uh, apparently, the arab political class took it at face value and

began to really do something according to the principle themselves, but let's try. or maybe we have some resource from here peace agreement, but so far preliminary, but apparently. they will be put into practice between saudi arabia and iran. saudi arabia and iran have done that it is pointless to expect any more decisive intervention from the americans. something needs to be done about the situation in the region. well, to put it mildly, it does not. uh, intensive enough to evolve economically and socially, something needs to be done. we have only one quran. let's try to get back to the dialogue. well, be that as it may, it is quite difficult to imagine the middle east without the americans at all; the americans, of course, do not fully come out.

well, because they can’t leave completely, there is no interest, but they can’t leave, because, firstly, china , which, uh, more or more serious positions in the middle east, occupies secondly, russia , which shows no signs that it is going from there go away for real in fact, but this is why the americans will not completely leave. but the loosening grip has given local political elites the opportunity to get a taste of deciding their own courts on their own. for me, it shows that the americans will no longer be able to return to the middle east that they played before. and to a certain extent, russia is an external player, it may not be a guarantor of security, as it was before, but quite a mediator and participant in the process from the outside , i say again, for one simple reason

the most important thing, probably, is that neither one nor the other country teaches. e lives are about how to live right. and how to live wrong. thank you. we talked with andrey took it, as we see our interlocutors disperse the process, only unfolding we do not accept the arguments that the united states is weakening so much that it is leaving the accepted east and leaving a vacuum there. to be honest, we haven't seen this. yes, today the americans are not as active there as before, but you can still feel a very powerful presence of order no questions cooperate us and others western countries to provide stability, prosperity and opportunity to the middle east. to maximize the potential, we do not want a vacuum to arise there, and if it does, it is very important that the countries of the region work together to overcome it. for 20 years, the middle east

has met four american presidents; donald trump was the brightest and he understood the least. why is this crazy region needed is not enough, perhaps, israel and saudi arabia, as friends in both countries, do not mind seeing trump again in the white house and they are not the only ones waiting for him with hope, hungarian prime minister viktor orban, spoke on thursday at a conference of conservative forces in budapest and simply cried out he is sure that if mr. return to europe mr. president, make america great again and bring hungary orban to the world. in the same place, he called the incubator, where we experiment with conservative ideas from the incubator, our permanent author alexander popova hungarian troops have to

maneuver in past years remember all the economic turmoil production costs have risen today people live in fear of tomorrow. we are suffering, and supermarkets are suffering even more , we have to circumvent the law in order to survive in the euro cent market, and the conflict in the east does not help us at all. on the contrary, it drives up the cost of production hard times kept at a relative distance from the events in the prime minister's ukraine. viktor orban, however, under pressure from the west, supported sanctions against russia, but did not want them concerned strategic resources such as gas or oil. we have two enemies. the first is the clash in ukraine, we must overcome them, but we do not have the strength. if we want to protect hungary, if we want a peaceful life for ourselves, then we must stay away from the russian

ukrainian conflict. well, staying on the sidelines is getting harder and harder to help ukraine provoke its own costs. and now hungary bans the export of ukrainian products that have accumulated on its territory, cheap goods are changing the situation on the market and harming their farmers. situation in poland. no, the situation. so bad that people took to the streets. they were tired not only of the grain itself, but even more of the ukrainization of the country. yes , this is the grain that comes to us from ukraine of poor quality. it does not meet european standards. it is spoiled by chemicals that have been banned in our country for 20 years. it can be said that our neighbors will set up a problem not only with farmers, but also flour that is used for food. zoloto noch was a teacher at a school in kishvarde for many years. it is not far from the border with ukraine about 20 kilometers, when the school conflict began offered humanitarian aid to the refugees, he

and his wife. went to the border crossing to help in person today they are wondering. and who will help them in such a situation, we watch the news and see that every day there is an escalation, we keep food supplies for several weeks, or even months. we plant more vegetables and fruits in the garden. but we also hope for politicians. we believe in nato because nato was created to ensure security. and i think our leaders know what they're doing. white there is clear that for many russia is still to blame for everything, namely viktor orban proposed to open in 2002 a museum house of terror, where you can find out how hungary defended itself from the occupation of alla much more than the rights of the hungarian communists and the soviet dictatorship, the entire communist system was based on terror, because it created conditions in which people could not think, speak or act freely. this is not a worthy life. they could

only sustain this long through terror. there are those who think otherwise now their truth is almost inaudible, but here, for example, there is already well-known history, and the professor taught for many years in budapest. the university has home photographs of his daughter and grandchildren. but as soon as the conflict broke out in ukraine , everything changed for him, his relatives considered that in these circumstances even in israel it would be safer for them and left. he stayed there, despite his views. do you understand, stop-dong? and everyone feels that europe is subject to an american decree, but they are very far from war for ordinary hungarians conflict in ukraine, not an abstract confrontation between good and evil is an element of a big world game

that at any moment can hit each of them, many of us are trusted by the common sense of politicians, but without the certainty that he will take up alexander popov especially for international review. beautiful uk crown
