us president george w. bush , on the deck of the aircraft carrier abraham lincoln, who was in the persian gulf, proclaimed mission accomplished , the commander-in-chief hurried into the last rout, lady hussein rushed about . why did operation iraqi freedom begin 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 peace has not yet come. by the time the main contingent of us troops was withdrawn in 2011, the loss of the country of the coalition members amounted to

almost 5,000 military personnel . 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 these are civilians and combatants american invasion the catalyst for the inter-ethnic conflict between sunnis and shiites, the law on the ban on the base party was adopted by the occupying administration of paul bremer, as a result, not only former military civil servants, but also the entire sunni intelligentsia, were left without work. many sunnis have become a social base for islamic state extremists. 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 judicial provinces resulted in open armed confrontation by the shiite

government of the jihadist islamic state captured almost 30 countries, including such large cities as mosul poluja tikrit and romantic about 100,000 and arab christians fled to iraqi kurdistan by the new government. the iraqis themselves have now turned to the us military for help. the operation to liberate mosul began in february. 2017 and lasted 6 months, according to the wall street journal, damage to cancer infrastructure during the fight against isis exceeded 45 billion us dollars financial losses were dozens of times more congressional research service believes that by 2011 the americans spent more than 800 billion dollars on the war in iraq, but the nobel prize winner. economist joseph stegletz believes that the indirect losses for the economy of the united states and other countries are about six trillion, the war in iraq caused

irreparable damage to the country's cultural heritage, back in 2003 28 museums and galleries were plundered, including the iraqi national museum, which was considered an object of world cultural heritage. heritage. unesco part of the artifacts was discovered in europe and the usa . a lot has been said about the fraternal war, including in our program now what is more important than what happened then. and how did it affect the current situation in the middle east, of course, it is fairly reasonable even to assume that it was it that became the turning point for both the region and the world order in terms of the role and place of the united states about iraq, not only talk with a knowledgeable interlocutor and challibe himself was seventy eighties, from the eighty-seventh to the nineties

, he served as the minister of oil and cancer after leaving for the private sector and has since been considered one of the most authoritative experts in the middle east energy industry and has been himself for 20 years. after bush announced victory in iraq , what is the state of the country. what have they achieved during this time? iraq arrives in a terrible state. for 20 years, progress has not been achieved in any direction, on the contrary, the country is sliding backwards. iraq developed industry and agriculture. the academic realm was at the level, and in general , many envied the iraqi infrastructure today, there is none of this. i will give a simple example from the moment when oil reached iraq. this was in october, 1927 until 2003, the proceeds from its sale amounted to 283 billion dollars. compare with the income over the past 20 years, trillion 400 billion dollars, what was done with this money during the years of the monarchy,

a lot was built in the first and second republics, and in these two decades there is nothing to show, in general, corruption, bribes , endless restaurants and shopping centers, but not a single industrial enterprise. even those that were built before are no longer functioning. iraq imports almost everything. smoldering what exactly is this that the united states sought to reject by 100, at least, but there are many arab countries, why exactly iraq among twenty-two arab countries? iraq and the 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 arabs are dead. now it is weakened as much as possible, and this consequence of

the iraqi war is strong. iraq was the guarantor. i do not mean any particular regime, since monarchical times and cancer has firmly supported the arabs in a variety of situations , and during the war with israel and during the period of economic problems and cancer has extended a helping hand to other arab countries, the west was able to lend a hand to the whole arab world. and how do you now assess the personality of adam, as a result he received what he deserved or fate treated him unfairly saddam hussein was a dictator there is no doubt about it, but he is the only dictator on the planet latin america africa asia he made huge mistakes, but he built a nation and created an economy. many got rich. yes, his associates advisers, especially his sons' inner circle, however, they did not find a single drive of evidence of corruption, which

was associated with him a casus belli , two charges of involvement in terrorism and a connection with al-qaeda not united, no evidence was found, because it was the other way around, he fought salcado. this is now al-qaeda and the islamic state and a host of other extremist groups, but none of them were when the rules give a second charge of having weapons of mass destruction from 1991 to 2003. however, mission after another after 2003 again searched for nothing. in general, they just wanted to destroy saddam hussein, maybe there was a personal motive. bush jr. read that saddam was trying to assassinate his father, or whatever religious ideas that souls were overwhelmed, if now we conduct an honest sociological study and ask the russians when they were better when creating or now i think they will choose 60 percent, then the time is now the united states is reducing

its presence in the middle east is gradually leaving. can this improve the situation before no one had an external influence on iraq to intervene in internal affairs was almost impossible now we have global interventions, united states united kingdom france many countries deeply involved in iraqi affairs of which only there are no types of presence from intelligence and so on, but not only that, but also the regional powers of iran control the armed groups. and a significant part of the economy turkey saudi arabia other arab countries are all seriously involved in iraqi politics, not a single prime minister. it is impossible to appoint without the approval of both sides of america and iran , you say that the us is leaving, unless they have military bases on iraqi territory, they are present in the south and in the north. they still control all airspace

. and cancer. it's called leaving they won't go anywhere. unless they change tactics. they promised to leave in 2011 nothing like that. thank you. it was the challie himself. the evolution of the middle east over 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 was given from washington march 2003 the invasion of the united states and its allies in iraq saddam hussein's regime was overthrown october 2006 as a result of the merger of radical sunni formations, a terrorist group islamic the state of iraq in the country begins a civil war between sunnis and shiites in january 2006, the us 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, the two powers fah against hamas december 2010 self-immolation, street vendor mohammed bouazizi in tunisia led to riots in the country began the arab spring tunisian president ben overthrown and jeet in saudi arabia anti-government demonstrations affected algeria egypt morocco jordan. sudan and even aman february 2011 as a result of popular protests, the president of egypt resigned even if i remove barak march 2011 dispersal of anti-government demonstrations in the syrian city. dera resulted in an armed uprising against bashar, assad june 2012 in

the first democratic elections in egypt , the representative of the muslim brotherhood , mohammed murcia, wins, but less than a year later, in june 2013, the army announced his non-deposition in may 2014 elected president of egypt representatives of the military abdel, fantah al-city february 2011 in libya as a result of the uprising of the tribes and nato bombing of the overthrown leader muark oddafi in october 2011. libya was brutally murdered libya ceased to exist as a single state may 2011 yemeni president ali abdala 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 sunnis and the pro-iranian swedish houthis group. she goes to this day july 2011 by mutual agreement the leadership

of sudan and the separatists. south, 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 creation of an islamic emirate in the territory. modern iraq syria and lebanon september 2015 at the request of the president of syria russia launched an operation to liberate the country from isis militants and other radicals, in addition to russian pilots and military advisers , iranian guards of the islamic revolution and militants were on the side of assad. lebanese shiite, hezbol groups december 2015 in morocco established the government of national unity

of libya, faiz al-saraj was appointed as the new prime minister. in the east of libya, he was opposed by the army of the rebellious general khalifator, who back in 2014 declared war on the government in tripoli. the war continues to this day in august 2016 turkey held a large-scale land operation shield euphrates. the goal of liberating the northern regions of syria from militants as a result, under the control of turkey, the strip in the turkish-syrian border between the cities of jarabus and aszas passed under the control, november 2016 , the army of bashar, assad took the eastern part of the city of aleppo, this was a turning point in the fight against isis in syria february 2017 iraqi authorities with us support, launched an operation to liberate iraqi mosul, and in june 2017 , us-led syrian democratic forces launched an offensive against

the capital of the so-called islamic cancer states. on january 18 , the turkish army again crossed the roman frontier and began 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 as for the consequences of the american policy, the climax of which was the invasion of iraq, we spoke with andrey zeltov from the school of oriental studies of the higher school of economics andrew were in the region expectations that the us iraq war would solve 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 americans, americans. uh, arab uh, political

circles. eh, they perfectly imagined that iraq is such barrels of gunpowder, which, in which you can’t sleep like that. here they just didn’t poke that finger, well, it’s clear that it was connected, in addition. uh, everything else, in addition to the internal tasks that the americans solved , was also connected with the obligations that did not take over before saudi arabia. and here they are in such a strange way these obligations. i mean, security guarantees from e creation they in such a strange way decided them, including the result. clearly, the results are known. er, iraq became the forerunner, er, actually and to a large extent the source. uh processes are quite radical transformations that we call today. true or false in the arab spring, the iraqi fiasco forced

a rethink of the situation for both the americans and 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 disappeared, well, the ussr, for obvious reasons, the united states, being alone in front of this problem, began a little, as it were, to mount their duties of this very guarantor of security and it turned out an interesting situation. that is, the political elite of the middle east, which for the last 75 years, roughly speaking , lived in a well-known paradigm, when they had two sponsors, whose external ones could slightly disturb the other, that is, one

united states to stir in the direction of the soviet union the soviet union to stir up such a migration towards the united states and suddenly it was all gone. re-invent . well, because there was a 75-year experience of a fairly logical existence that did not require much effort. and now this is the process of reinvention, which began back then today, he has taken on a fairly tangible thing. e forms, but there were some final turning point. in the sense of the americans' perception, the withdrawal from afghanistan is, rather, not leaving afghanistan the flight from afghanistan which practically broke the ridge with a camel

absolutely. that's what is called the next morning before the political middle east in general. there was a question. and what will happen to you? that is, apparently, how do we look at the americans, why is the question different? that is, we turn out to be quite ourselves, from uh we find ourselves, well, abandoned, or what? that is , this is a story that i named for myself. uh, and now you yourself, that is, the americans, uh,

turned around and said, but guys, you yourself are now sorting out your big problems. and we will be engaged in political constructions that will allow us to go further. to maintain his sword in this situation began the processes that we now see in the middle east turned out to be parting words of the americans. now you yourself, 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. the peace agreement is still preliminary, but apparently they will be implemented between saudi arabia. well, there is a lot of talk about the fact that this china has done everything. no, it wasn't china that did it, it was saudi arabia and iran that did it. ah. these are the saudis, who have seen that it is pointless to expect decisive intervention from the americans anymore. something needs to be done about the situation in the region. well, to put it mildly, it does not. uh enough to intensively develop economically to decide. well, remember that we are muslims. well, yes, the shiites will sum it up. well, in the end we have only one koran. a. let's try to get back to the dialogue. well, as it were, then it was hard to imagine the middle east at all without the americans leaving.

well, because they can’t leave completely, there is no interest, but they can’t leave, because , firstly, china, which occupies a serious position in the middle east, and secondly, russia , which shows no signs that it is actually going to leave from there , but this is completely useless and therefore the americans will not leave completely, but what made it possible for the local political elites to get a taste of an independent solution. their my own trial shows to me that the americans will no longer be able to return to the middle east in the role that they played before. but china and, to a certain extent, russia, in general, they will remain so. well, serious external players, maybe not security guarantors

, as it used to be, but i say it again as mediators and participants in the process from the outside, 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 andrei zeleny, as we see our interlocutors disagree on how long the presence of the americans is. it is understandable. while the process is only unfolding. we do not accept the argument that the us will weaken so much that it goes to the east and leaves a vacuum there. to be honest, we haven't seen this. yes, today the americans are not as active there as they used to be, but there is still a very powerful presence of order. there are no questions to cooperate with the us and others. to ensure the stability of prosperity and stability in the middle east the opportunity to maximize the potential we do not want to create

a vacuum 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 tricky 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 urban spoke on thursday at a conference of conservative forces in budapest, and simply screamed sure that if mr. trump were the president of the united states , no war would tear ukraine apart today, europe, come back 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 guests have to maneuver last year production increased today people. living in fear of tomorrow, we suffer, and supermarkets suffer even more, we have to circumvent the law in order to survive in the market, the government ordered us to lower the price of eggs to 65 euro cents, and the conflict is in the east. it doesn't help us at all. on the contrary, it leads to higher production costs hard times. until now , prime minister viktor orlan has kept a relative distance from the events in ukraine, although under pressure from the west he supported himself against russia, well, he didn’t want them to concern such strategic resources.
