i, as a heritage, we have all the legal vocabulary, practically napoleon came, yes, yes , that's of course, that's what comes first. war and peace come second. dostoevsky fyodor mikhailovich forever and incomparable well, and further, but nevertheless, if we talked more about our classics, if we filmed, our wonderful works are classical, and again , the senator from the crimea e olga fedorovna kovitidi took part in the round table . she gave an example that evgeny onegin pushkin's novel of verse is known to the world the last time the americans filmed our film was in 1955. we are studying eugene onegin well, why not show, for example, the russian content of the film with russian actors from american ones, and i think that here, too, we need to put things in order. and i hope that we will come to an agreement with the ministry of culture on this more than once. we consulted, so we will solve this issue about it. and the russian classics should become,

permanently on the air, the main events of the upcoming week, the st. petersburg international economic forum, in work which will be attended by the senators meet on the air see you on the senate program. hello dear friends friday night. i am alexander korean time to sum up, the main political and economic results of the outgoing week, well, let's start with the president's statement , a special operation is under way. ukrainian troops, in

no area of ​​hostilities did not achieve their goals, vladimir putin said today the failure of the counteroffensive of the kiev regime. including related to the effectiveness of modern weapons of russia about this also the president said today also the president noted that intensive battles were fought yesterday and the day before yesterday, but the enemy was not successful in any area and explained. can we assume that the offensive has begun? firstly, it can be stated with absolute certainty that this offensive has begun. and this is evidenced by the use of ukrainian strategic reserves. the first, the second did not reach the ukrainian troops in any of the areas of hostilities, the tasks set by the front tasks continue for

5 days, for example, for yesterday for yesterday day before yesterday. they were very intense. organization and proper command and control of troops and the high efficiency of russian weapons, especially modern weapons. yes, we still do not have enough of these modern weapons, but the industry the defense industry, the huge industrial complex of the country is developing

rapidly and i am sure that all the tasks facing the defense industry will certainly be solved. , battalions, alania and ossetia hello how is the situation here is the president. we just heard people say that, well, and we all saw this news that the fighting was very active, as it is now. what is happening now? hello, good evening, that's it. now our sector of the front on the orekhovsky, front, zaporozhye region, is a temporary lull, but the guys are in readiness number one now, ah, the fifth day of the ukrainian counteroffensive. we all asked ourselves asked on the air. began

whether it? and even now, when we realized that the counter-offensive began at the place of command of the armed forces, i would, frankly, curtail such an offensive. and, apparently , they are doing this in their social networks and on news channels, for example, if you read uh, ukrainian resources. and they designate battles here with us, as battles of local significance in the zaporozhye region, by the same, huh? all this sounds cynical, given that the losses of the apu are currently in the assault. as he said, vladimir vladimirovich is not even one in three. yes , this is a standard military loss figure. sounds like a tolerable loss. now this figure is me, well, probably several times higher, and about the tanks. when i call bradley the leopard, a smile appears on my lips, we are all correspondents here on the zaporozhye front, they have been hunting for footage of the burning bradley and the leopard for a long time, and it is doubly

pleasant to realize that our guys were the first to publish on the video that they began to publish . as far as i understand, the guys from the 45th brigade. the airborne special forces are cornets, they work on tigers. and we probably already have a killer of leopards in the army. this is the cornet d1 complex, which is installed, and on any armored vehicle that has. the power to drag it is guided missiles that can simultaneously hit two targets with dynamic protection of the very modern tanks, including leopards and bradley that they showed at a distance of up to 10 km, and at many points and sections of the aircraft, did not even have a chance come up. they walked through the minefields, including several tanks of the same leopards left in the minefields, this allows us to safely remove them from the copters

from drones and, of course, this all greatly affects the morale of those who are now being hastily reorganized into new and assault battalions for the armed forces of ukraine . three days ago, almost in full flight on the zaporozhye fields. and george and now there are a lot of reports that you have already said that it works, demoralizing the ukrainian troops, nevertheless, they are advancing. how do you think, it is clear that we know their plans, but as i understand it, you are ready and the fighters are ready for the fact that after all this is the so-called counter-offensive, but it will still continue further, and i mean the very near future.

and you know, in fact, it has not yet ended, that is, active combat work is underway, and if hostilities subside for several hours, this is just the calm before the storm, at any second the situation explodes, you can say, relatively speaking, i am in touch with several units on our zaporozhenny front and the situation is changing so rapidly that literally there, if 15 minutes ago, everything was quiet and calm. now the guys are already going through an intense battle and the rhythm of hostilities has changed a lot, considering that we have had the last three or four months. everything was very calm. it can be said that it is stable, but now it has begun. that very war with navigators , you understand behind my words, this. words are simply colossal work, risk for life

under the blood and real heroism of our guys. i would like to speak again on the air now on the zaporozhye front, the heroic fifty-eighth army is fighting. in the same place, as part of this army, the volunteer battalion storm ossetia and alania has been fighting forty-fifth airborne brigade , uh, in fact, for the last 5 days. here , right here on the zaporizhzhya front, the glory of russian weapons is being forged, the real one and all the major victories and major offensives. they start with moments like these. and now here i am circling circling near the front. it’s very hard to get in now, first of all, because even the correspondent now, well, just

they refuse to accept people, extra people, extra cars to shine positions, because the vsu continues to strike directly at the advanced positions on the dugouts in the trenches with the highmars systems, and fortunately, the guys here were ready for this a long time ago there a few months ago for understanding. i would like to tell you that even in the event of a breakthrough, the first, second , third line of defense will reach the same melitopol and they will have to go. breaking through, probably, dozens of such lines of defense, for which our troops can be trained in a controlled to roll back and inflict simply unacceptable losses on the enemy, as practice has shown , the fifty-eighth army was able to organize the defense in the direction entrusted to it in such a way that we do not even have to use lines deeper, probably the third. i know that somewhere the enemy was able to push through with a mass, and our positions were 200-300 meters away, where our troops made a controlled withdrawal. and then they covered these positions. uh, since they

shot all the coordinates are known, they covered these artillery positions, after which, uh, the first line of defense was repulsed. i already today spoke on the air about the shocking situation on the outskirts of our positions. there still continue to be a colossal number of seriously wounded militants of the armed forces, and two hundred and three hundred and yesterday or the day before yesterday. i deliberately, so to speak, conserved this information , i give it out only now, because yesterday , the day before yesterday, our fighters allowed it. uh, vsu, evacuate these people from positions and probably this is not the last way the situation has affected the moral situation of the troops. now on the other side. we can now look at telegram it goes video whole.

assault battalions that they are thrown to the slaughter without proper art training, and i will explain to you why they do not have proper art training about the dominance of our aviation in the sky, we have said many times and now once again guys it shows they are called archangels, so to speak, as well as counter-battery combat. here are the gunners with whom i am constantly in touch. today they came out and informed me that their division had fired 360 shells per shift. only by shooting coordinates. you just imagine the density and effectiveness of this fire, in principle. so, for the fifth day , everyone is really spring and the guys are on the front line, and we are here in the near rear, so i will keep you informed. yes, george is great to you. thank you. i didn’t even interrupt, and yet we still have a minute on the air. and i just would like to ask you the question you listed. well, those, probably, this is the well-known ukrainian and ukrainian intelligence officer data that

the military units that are present protect this territory, but there is no secret here. no. i wanted to ask if there is a clear interaction between these uh divisions, because in the beginning there were problems with this, as things are now. you know? again, i have a smile on my face when i find myself at the headquarters of the observation posts on the front line, or rather, at the kmp of our battalions and the storm battalion of the volunteer network. i see work in progress. i'll tell the audience. here , as an amateur myself, i am not a military man, but everything is like in films, that is, all means of detection are used, all means of destruction horizontal and vertical connection. uh, we have it set up on our sector of the front, well , almost perfect, so perfect that we manage to stop the enemy in three and

hit the enemy effectively hit the enemy 3-5 km before approaching our positions. pay attention again. i would like to pay attention. take a look at the shots of objective control. there are practically no hits, in the fields. yes, there are no so-called lunar craters. we 'll talk again on the air. note. this is a very important detail of our gunnery and mobilization. from this day on, i officially stop separating the mobilized and contract servicemen, because ours are mobilized on the zaporozhye front. so far they are showing amazing results. that is, they already act like professionals. it’s not like it’s been a long time. and today they proved it, and it was very important to beat back, just the same, this first onslaught and feel the strength. and now those guys who come there for shells and go back to the front. i communicate with them.

i see people in a working trance. that is if i need to sleep for five more days, they will sleep for another five days, i say conditionally. yes, somewhere it is possible to sleep somewhere, and a copy in the dugout is somewhere along the way from the front line, but now it’s work, now we are all rallied into one single fist. and this is the most important thing, and where this fist will strike next, time will tell. george thank you very much. thanks for the great interesting story. take care of yourself and the kids. hi all. and i think that we are all rooting for you and think that everything will be fine. i remind you, in touch with the studio was a special correspondent. battalions of alania and these axis george mambsorov. in the kherson region , a children's recreation center was fired at. on the arabat strelka, one person died, another was injured, the governor of the region reported in rio, vladimir salda, according to his data, a blow was struck

with missiles in the direction of shadow numbers and markings on the wreckage indicate that it was english missiles delivered to the kiev regime that one of the missiles of the units shot down e , local boarding houses. i remind you temporarily located as evacuated residents of kherson and those who were recently saved from the consequences of the destruction of the kakhovka hydroelectric power station in the main. these are women, children and the elderly. the head of the ministry of industry and trade visited the kherson region today. denis manturov, inspected the pharmacy stores, drew attention to the fact that now, when thousands of people are moving from the flood zone after the terrorist attack at the kakhovka hydroelectric power station , mobile shops are especially important and promised to help with their purchase, and also manturov met with rio governor vladimir sad. we talked to people directly, those who were

buyers were in the colleague's store confirm that over the year it has changed significantly and the range has increased and prices have also changed for the better. you also think these pharmacy colleagues said. we see clearly the monitoring of the floor, but what kind of prices? we have a position popping up there, yes, in the red zone, a and was the commander fell by half hmm balanced. this is, uh, the development of local networks and the provision of a full-fledged supply through

logistics centers and the creation of a local one , this is the format that is now. uh, as a matter of fact, there is when the leader precisely the leaders. and see in person. it's more, uh, realistic. than let's say even a dry summary shows. here you come in. it’s just unexpected, not that i didn’t really expect to be here and i think that people saw the mood of people. here i am, after all these events, undermining kakhovskaya. yeah, dams, no matter how huge a disaster, a huge misfortune, but on the other hand. here we are going now and people are watching, on the contrary , they were moving even more, that is, this is more. well, the catastrophes of the week, of course, this is a terrorist attack dam of the kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station on the economic

consequences of this event. we will talk with the former prime minister of ukraine mykola azarov nikolaevich hello, i understand that it is probably too early to draw any specific conclusions. it is clear that the huge damage to the economy and the kherson region. and in general, ah, but nevertheless here at the first estimates, and what are we talking about? what sumac is so far clear that, probably, it is not so much the money itself that comes to the fore as economic damage. how much socio-ecological and so on, but we we'll talk about the economy. do you already have some first estimates or is it too early to talk about it. for the time being, talk about this round, because the scale, of course, is colossal, and i am especially sorry that after the coup d'état this is going to peacefully destroy the economy of ukraine. i want to say that in 1913 you just

completed the reconstruction stations that provided water to the crimea north crimea channel. i was at the opening of the last station represent scale. in the thirteenth year, we supplied water to the crimea, well, in the crimea, the south of the kherson region, about one and six tenths of a billion tons. think about this gigantic figure. what is the kakhovka reservoir and what is it? north crimean canal this is about a third of the ancestral flow of the dnieper and so i want to ask a simple question. this is what has been done in these 9 years after the coup d'état. these, so to speak , figures, there are all sorts of green powders. yes, everything is going in terms of destruction. now you've asked the question, of course

very seriously. i want, by the way, remembered now yesterday literally read. about friedman stratford center, and he struck me with such a phrase that the long-awaited destruction of the kakhovka hydroelectric power station happened long ago and the name is the destruction of the kakhovka aggression. so that you understand what functions and now you asked a question about damage. what functions were performed , then, kakhovskaya gres, well, first of all, of course, this is the regulation of the annual flow. yes, providing the necessary pressure. this means that at the power plants of this dnieper cascade , the stations provide water supply providing irrigation, that is, watering, these are the arid regions of the nikolaev region and , say, the kherson region, crimea, that’s all. these are arid regions that need water and that is why such a gigantic construction project

was carried out, and we certainly treasured this system tremendously. but now let's get back. according to the stage, what to say, it means that there is shipping, of course, no . what kind of water supply? let's just ask one question, for example. kryvyi rih was fed by 70% from the electric power of the kakhovka reservoir. and what is krivoy rog is 600.000 inhabitants? it's huge, which means it's the biggest undertaking out there, suffice it to say that only the krivorostat feels it, but it's not only the growth curve, various and so on and so forth. and, of course, now this problem will become throughout this region with water supply, because the level of water intake has fallen. naturally, it provided for completely different levels and that's it. it will have to be restored to think about it and so on and so forth. i don't

say already there, generally according to whom they are generally of agricultural production, which seems to me great. here, and he affects not only the left bank and the right bank. it’s not by chance that i remembered, nikolaev, for example, yes, it seems to be on the right bank, it stands quite far, however, uh, a significant part of the region was supplied with dnieper water, therefore, what’s with this, well, it’s clear that the americans are indifferent to these are the problems that i spoke about, but the most surprising thing is that today's kiev puppets treat these problems with exactly the same indifference. that's it too. still striking the damage that's been done it is not only, so to speak, directed against , say, the left bank, which is now controlled by the russian army, but also against the right bank, too. people live there too. there are companies working there. well, there part

of the working part does not work, so directly answer the question. what damage has been done, i will only say one huge damage. and, of course, the recovery will take quite a long time. the dam itself. here is someone who can represent someone who does not represent. it's still decent construction of 4 km, approximately the length. and now this formerly concrete structure of the dam has been destroyed. where there is a sash, where there is a descent there is work, well, the machines behind are practically completely destroyed. so, uh, now i hope for one thing that maybe the body of the earthen dam itself, which was made in soviet times. it's pretty safe there. perhaps, so to speak, it will suffer to a lesser extent, i note that in recent days, no progress has begun to drain a lot of water. here's an unusual lot.

here it would seem. if they were they are interested in protecting themselves already , so to speak, e had to somehow regulate this knock, on the contrary, it means that a significant descent of water is not progress. it certainly can't affect the level that much, but it's still an additional factor to show what they're doing. all of this is purposefully purposeful. including such a most serious object, which was extremely valued, because it is, well, i can talk a lot about its significance for countries for ukraine, i mean for russia now. so i wanted to pay attention to your words that you said that well, this has also been already discussed, that they do not specifically dump excess water from not progress. and earlier, can this be explained by some kind of coincidence, for example, technological features, or not? or is it still clear that

they simply drain water from its place in order to worsen the situation , there were no technological things here, if they do this, or in april in april. yeah well, when the flood comes there is a large influx of water, they begin to regulate there. drains, yes, and now we are at the beginning of june, we have already passed all the tents. and if it is clear that this artificial regulation speaks of a special character, so to speak, and the leader was replaced there. now some kind of nazi is working there ukry-hydroenergo, and he reasoned there. i myself read that here we are, so to speak, we will be engaged in the fact that we will regulate the current, we will support it there, which it supports now. so he increases the pressure on the dam. by the way, satellites appeared on the 5th. uh, space footage, and you could already see how the water had already begun to break through . the concrete part. the concrete part, the part

of the dam . that is, it was clear that things were going to destroy this part, and yet. at the same time, he increased, so to speak, the water pressure of the reservoir. well, i can’t say something directly, so to speak, the main fact is that the influence here is not as romantic as it is. well, nevertheless, therefore , it can not be connected with anything. this is purposeful work. to increase the negative effect of the destruction of the dam, when people, by the way, are engaged in what they save there, than chsniks, they save people there and so on, on the contrary, it would be necessary to somehow help in this matter. no, on the contrary, they enhance this greatness, so to speak, the negative consequences of this phenomenon. here, in their defense, the ukrainian authorities speak, and you said about this that the right bank is also suffering. they say, how did we bury the dam, uh, we also suffer, how to be with this logic. well, of course they don't suffer, because

what i already said is that these are the water intakes, there and so on. all this is carried out from the dnieper, including from which reservoir. but this cannot be compared, because our right bank is quite high and there are no floods. you can, only in the estuary area, if you raised it from the level there, especially so to speak, here, uh, i don’t know this information, i don’t own it. it is, in principle, the right bank, high, no flooding there. no, all you see is the left bank on the screen. i mean what they show. this left bank, and therefore suffered mostly. this one here, tsyurupinsk, which is now called a beggar, these are all lowland, so to speak, our towns, so to speak, our squares, and therefore all this hypocrisy cannot, they will certainly suffer crookedly, krivoy rog is located with them. yes , krivoy rog is here, he is now there for sure.

so, let's say he switched to some kind of rationed water supply, there is a consumption rate, so to speak, especially in ore refining there, so to speak , there is a huge need for circulation there. water, yes, and including in steelmaking, but the main thing that will suffer, of course , is, firstly, the city of berdyansk. yes, berdyansk is fed from the new kakhovka reservoir from the kakhovka reservoir. it is fed through uh, which means there is a large water conduit there, its length, in my opinion, is somewhere around 170 or 180 kilometers, but berdyansk is fully energized and i can cite many facts like that, uh, but now the main, of course, the damage is certainly rushing back flooding. and now imagine someone in the countryside flooded with this water after that the well, that he is a worker. of course not. and because

the water got there, it is not clear what kind. e. here i don't want to talk about it especially, but here's any, so to speak. the viewer himself will understand what is at stake. i beg your pardon, unfortunately we are out of airtime. i realized that the situation is very difficult. i think we will discuss this further. thank you very much.
