we'll take care of this. it will be the honest

detective. further, our broadcast will be continued by the author's program of kirill vyshinsky typical novorossiya, the significance of the geopolitical position of crimea hello. kirill vyshinsky is with you, and this

is a typical novorossiya program, our name says it all, we tell about the territory that has returned to its historical roots about the bells and whistles with the help of a careful look at history. we will try to reveal the originality of her present day, find both typical features and recognizable signs of the past. and here's what we'll talk about today a strategic pillar on the southern flank 240 years history of the russian crimea crimea and novorossiya as a factor in russian politics conversation with a program expert. this year marks the 240th anniversary of the annexation

of crimea to russia for centuries , the peninsula played a strategic role for each state one way or another, the greeks who possessed it made chersonesus modern sevastopol the main outpost. in the northern black sea region, the byzantines used the crimea for their influence on eastern europe after the ottoman empire used the crimean khanate to influence moscow and the commonwealth, playing on the contradictions of these largest european states until 1783. turkey considered the black sea as its inland lake, but after the peninsula became part of the russian empire, it dominated. in this region , they are already claiming and russia has become a serious jerk of russia to the south even. in 240 years - this

strategic line is perfectly visible. the black sea - this is an exit to a large geopolitical space to the caucasus and the balkans. the mediterranean sea to the countries of the middle east, according to for most historians, access to the southern seas was much more important for russia than to the baltic; other expanses and prospects opened up here; . this seriously worried britain and france, the intervention was inevitable and ended with the crimean war. today, like centuries ago, crimea is still the main bastion of the country's security on the southern flank, the uniqueness in its

in the military-strategic position, the one who owns the crimea controls the entire black sea with all its coasts, the fleet is able to get to any point of the water area in the shortest possible time to intercept any naval expedition of the enemy to the southern shores of russia , and the emergence of hypersonic missile systems only increased the military importance of crimea with its territory today you can control the balkans, the caucasus, the middle east and the entire eastern mediterranean sea. whatever they say today in the west, crimea is historical and rightfully belongs to russia, one can argue that how true is his assessment as an unsinkable russian aircraft carrier in the black sea, nevertheless, the peninsula has been and remains a key link in ensuring russia's national security in this

region of germany, where, due to exercises for civil air traffic , a 37-kilometer air corridor for central europe with its sky overloaded with airliners is specially closed. when an unprecedented air offensive operation on the territory of donbass and crimea is being practiced during the maneuvers , control over these territories, the long-held dream of the nato alliance was preparing and carrying out an appropriate event in order to make crimea e its territory. not in the sense of the state, of course, but in terms of control in sevastopol, the transfer of several e-e real estate objects was already being prepared in order for them to start working here. ah, american intelligence. and there was a common goal. oust

the black sea fleet and sevastopol, that is, the main thing is that it was literally, and a few days, if not hours, when the events took place in february march 2014 and i gave birth to russia then in 2014 russia unexpectedly confused all the cards the collective west did not like the democratic expression of will, because it destroyed the consistent plan that was patiently put into practice for the last three decades after the collapse of the ussr, the creation of a belt of unfriendly states and military bases around a potential enemy, that is, russia, the so-called anaconda method, first tested in the united states back in the years of the civil war between north and south and which became the basis of the modern anglo-saxon geopolitical strategy, the naval forces in the united

states of america, possessing great power, expanding somewhere against the continent . in this case, it is available in eurasia. they carried out this method of anaconda by creating military bases of some other power, that is, points, so that it all compresses this territory. the enemy came and his ability to make trade economic transactions with the world reduced his military capabilities, if we look at the current situation, we will see that this method of anaconda is embodied in reality. and the fact that crimea returned to russia is the most important fact, which, like a system, destroys this chain, but this chain, link by link, continues to build an extra confirmation of this , finland officially, which joined nato in april. because of what, the line of our contact with this bloc increased by 1.200 km. and of course, the long-standing members of the alliance estonia latvia and lithuania, which are already talking about blocking the gulf of finland and arranging problems with logistics between st.

petersburg and kaliningrad russia and its most important partner germany, finally, turkey, which, with all the current treaties of ability, still remains a member of nato, and as history shows. maintain constructive relations with russia turkish is sometimes difficult because of the constant pressure of the west the biggest success in this region. e russia had an enker from the kelisian treaty with turkey, this is paragraph 830 of the third or thirty-fourth year. uh, when the two powers without a war, and there were only 2 of them, the black sea turkey and russia agreed on mutual control directed and so on, what do you think england france is not a single pound of goods that did not pass through these straits and are thousands of miles away, this coast did not recognize this clause. and that's when the movement began. this

already my opinion of the crimean war, at first turkey, which, in accordance with the matrio convention of 1936, possesses sovereignty over the bosform danels, closed the straits from the black mediterranean sea for military ships, but for russia, building a powerful naval base in the crimea this is more a plus than a minus of our ships on combat duty, but the nato way here is actually ordered, this is the deepest part of the oceans that has gone into the land. so the black sea straits. this is one of them from the black sea access to the world ocean, a passage through them is a dead end to the coasts of the black sea powers, so any change in the balance of power in this e creates a threat to the military security of the black sea powers. the possession of crimea is a key element of security in southern russia, but not only a full-fledged naval force in this

region. it is also control over the waters of the eastern mediterranean and regions such as the balkans and the middle east. well, and so from practice. eh, ship. came out in the morning the next day. he is happy in a day, he is already in the mediterranean sea, in a day two. he already the eastern mediterranean sea in tartus is now known to the whole world. it’s not that the ships will go 2-3 weeks north or from the baltic in order to reach these points, but the eastern mediterranean sea of ​​the middle east is the political kitchen of the world on the pro already almost 70 years, if you like, under the belly, the heartland, or you will get to russia , and here one point is very important that, uh , the geopolitical borders of a country or civilization must be defended no less, thoroughly than real borders and in this sense alternatives to sevastopol. no by

deep-water relief according to the wind rose along the length of the water area - this is an ideal basing site that allows ships of large displacement to enter and exit the bay in the most convenient direct course , i must say that, uh, from the moment crimea became russian, the ability to ensure our security in the south russia has significantly strengthened we have, there is now sufficient to solve the problems of the black sea fleet in ukrainian times. we had only one alros submarine now seven. we have new frigates there, new corvettes. not to mention the fact that crimea is the crossroads of civilization and cultures at all times, the most important center in terms of logistics, by the way, a hypothetical project, the so-called road of the forty-fifth parallel from great britain to india at one time also ran through the peninsula, but remained on paper maps in leather-lined offices of british officials. and when they say crimea is ours, it means that in the end, our crimea is not for that russian sailors,

heroically held the first and second defenses of sevastopol in order to ask him later how it is done at one time in belovezhskaya pushcha anna efimova valery savelyev anastasia popova typical of borussia on the historical and strategic significance of the crimea and whether it will change in the near future, we will talk with our permanent expert , political scientist rostislav ishchenko good afternoon. good afternoon rostislav in the 18th century, when did catherine get to the crimea after a long journey? uh, then potemkin showed her first of all the oktyabrskaya bay to sevastopol and the fleet today in the new geopolitical conditions somehow

the importance of crimea will change, the exclusion of sevastopol for control of the black sea will be modified for strategic control over the southern flank of the russian empire of the rural union of modern russia as a whole was realized is realized and will be realized also of crimea it is possible to control not only the short term with crimea it is possible to control the entire european part of russia up to moscow including places. fleet and if the enemy controls crimea, then with a photo on the black sea you can say goodbye to him, they will shoot him before he actually leaves his bases, how vulnerable is crimea and its communications with russia today, how can this affect the role of the island during the war? everything is relatively vulnerable, that is, to cut these communications or cut them for a long time . ukraine is now not in a position to leave movement along them in jeopardy. ducks, she has already delivered, because ukrainian missile systems are, in principle, finishing off there. ukrainian drgs operate there. it is clear that this does not

interrupt the connection between crimea and russia through the ladies' bridge, but again, there is a certain vulnerability. she is not strategic, that is, there, well, there is a certain psychological pressure, in addition, until then, the russian border has not been pushed deep into modern ukrainian ones. in principle, the southern russian territories on this border may turn out to be a strong enemy, who will threaten with an invasion of tavria and thus before knitting a land bridge, therefore, it is certainly necessary to move the border further, at least the rear ones are better in general in the area of ​​​​zarchats. yes. e, crimea will be guaranteed from land invasion of communications under ukraine e did not develop only the peninsula, but even the naval forces of ukraine, which were based on the peninsula, but nevertheless, if under poroshenko they did not actively try to return

the presidential crimea, it became almost the number one problem for ukraine, why is zelensky trying to return the language , but his rhetoric has become precisely more active than under poroshenko, certainly about the audience, than poroshenko the less you can physically? more you have to work rhetorically with poroshenko e, the main idea was to regain control over the remaining part of the donbass and crimea he was not so worried, because , in general, for a long time yes, ukrainian nationalists proceeded from the fact that crimea is, in fact, cut off and a chunk, that it only harms ukraine because there is too strong pro-russian sentiments. it is clear that, uh, if you won poroshenko in donbass , everything would not be limited to donbass. it would immediately begin to prepare for the crimean operation, because the strategically interested americans are shooting in crimea, while zelensky has the opportunity to return the crimea and return the territories lost right now at the first stage

his question is how much territory he will lose, and for how long and when you will end ukraine and his power. should we be afraid of this rhetoric of zelensky, take it seriously rhetoric, should not be afraid of the fact that he does not say ukraine uh? i realized and i think that ukrainian partners are abroad. they realized that they cannot win the war on the battlefield and that i have to choose the war economically, and they have brought the main efforts in recent months to the sphere of psychological pressure everything that happens on the front all the provocations that take place in our rear all sabotage terrorist acts. so, they are aimed at, uh, increased psychological pressure on russian society, so that panic and such threats arise. how serious they are and uh , fundamentally for crimea, ukrainian allies go to the bank. here i am, if not the united states is distancing itself from this in principle and has actually given up escalating the situation

in ukraine in its own great britain. missiles are actually medium-range, that is, more than 500 km. and this is practically the same as deploying medium-range nuclear weapons outside the window of ukraine , because all these missiles are capable of being equipped with nuclear warheads, and no one will believe that ukrainians have been trained and given control of missile systems of such power and such range. this means that western settlements will also be located there. that is, this is actually the beginning of the caribbean crisis. some dangers are not that this rocket maybe it will fly most of the missiles. in any case, they will shoot down, and the danger is that this actually means a transition to the brink of a nuclear confrontation. all this will lead to a new round of tension, and in relations with the west, russia is already directly and

brings these relations to the brink of conflict. and a direct armed conflict. what is immediately not tanks, guns, planes, but missile weapons capable of carrying a nuclear warhead. thank you very much for a very detailed story. famous song where does the homeland begin a kind of hymn to patriotism and love for one's land was written to the verses of vladimir motosovsky, a native of lugansk, for the film shield and sword. this is a story about the soviet intelligence officer alexander belov, who during the war years destroyed the intelligence school of the adver and several senior gestapo officers. the song in the film appeared thanks to the consultant and prototype of the main character, the legendary intelligence officer alexander svyatogorov. in search of suitable poems, the director of the film vladimir basov asked the opinion of the consultant svyatogorov suggested that the main thing in the most difficult

minutes. the scout does not think about himself , about who he risks for and accomplishes a feat about the motherland about close people about his home then basov found very subtle and lyrical poems by matusovsky. scout alexander svetogorov knew perfectly well what he was talking about. there was more than one successful operation on his account, not only during the war years, but even after it, materials on many of them are still kept under the heading top secret, however, historians call his name among the participants liquidation, the leader of the ukrainian nationalists stepan bandera in the fifties in munich and also in connection with a daring operation to seize the secret ciphers of the israeli fashion. in prague , the beginning of the professional path of alexander svyatogorov was closely connected with novorossia before the war. he worked in zaporozhye, where

he was a young komsomol member and was offered to join the people's commissariat of internal affairs about the legendary soviet intelligence officer in the plot of olga mokhova when director vladimir basov, on the eve of filming the film shield and sword, arranged a meeting with intelligence officers and only then they said which of them was at one time, an illegal basov for a long time could not remember what he looked like. that's when he understood. what should be the main character of his film. there was a very interesting image of a scout, such a kind of inconspicuous, but with such an inner core. eh, as if very intelligent, but at the same time, at first glance, no matter how they determined him, yes, that he was a scout for this inner strength. in alexander svyatogorev himself, perhaps they drew attention to the nkvd at the height of the repression of the thirties of the last century. he

refused to slander a colleague, convinced of his decency, and already in the thirty-ninth, when a large-scale reform of the head of the shop, the plant began in the authorities, zaporozhye-steel was invited to work there, instructing the revision to be done, yezhova was repressed during the seasons, especially on the territory of ukraine a lot of people were repressed. well, fonavet and, of course, the employees who reviewed these cases were less biased towards people who suffered and, for sure, there were people who were released thanks to holy city with the arrival. in the nkvd, lavrentiy beria was not only a purge of personnel, but his policy changed, the people's commissar seriously took up strengthening the potential of soviet intelligence and counterintelligence before alexander svyatogorov got into this secret structure. at the very beginning of the great patriotic war, he, as part of a special group of the nkvd , worked in zaporozhye, the chekists were responsible for the evacuation of residents and enterprises, the mining of strategic objects, the fight against marauders, and after the city was occupied by the germans, they carried out sabotage against the nazis later in

in occupied kharkov , the intelligence network created by svyatogorov ensured the operation to undermine the headquarters of the major general. georg wehrmacht. brown has such a point of view that hmm, of the two chiefs who most determined the victory , three can be called, which means zhukov konstantinovich konstantin konstantinovich rokossovsky and ship payments, that is, the entire partisan movement, but did not spontaneously arise. it was precisely organized purposefully in the occupied territory - this is the merit of just the fourth department of the nkvd here platov, right up to the liberation of kiev by the soviet troops in november 1943, svyatogora carried out the task of conducting reconnaissance sabotage activities against the nazis, trained partizans during the retreat, the germans left a powerful intelligence network in the soviet rear, for which they trained in intelligence at the abwehr school. in polish lublin, this

enemy reconnaissance was very important, to destroy the already existing partisan detachment of the rear formations, which operated, among other things, on the territory of e, poland, and, accordingly, svyatogorov and his uh, comrades kovalenko hmm parachuted into the front line. they didn’t find this partisan detachment and began to prepare the ground for the fulfillment of the task assigned to them, the story of the introduction of a soviet intelligence officer into the lublin intelligence service was included in the film. the sword is only in him. our hero alexander belov gets there under the name of the ethnic german johan weiss svyatogora, but he called himself a former fighter of the galicia ss division , such a legend looked quite plausible for contacts with the command. he took the pseudonym majorzorich from yugoslavia, e, was some employee with the surname zoriche, who, with whom svyatogorov and zorrovich were friends, apparently died in the forty-second year and svyatogorov. just used his

last name like uh, actually a pseudonym. operations involving svyatogorov capture of walter falenogau personal assistant to the head of the avro-admiral canaris about fascist slovakia major zorich svyatogorov participated in the liberation from captivity of the czechoslovak, communists and organizations of the national uprising. in bratislava under the legend of a defector. he worked for several years in 1961. he was urgently recalled due to the threat of failure that year chekist bogdan stashinsky, the liquidator of the leaders of ukrainian nationalists, the lion, the rebit and stepan bandera, fled from the gdr to west berlin, and he was an employee of the holy city. here he worked in his department. well, and since, uh, there was a court, and where he stated that he, uh, it means that he carried out the liquidation, and almost nothing was made for him, the decision was so unprecedented that no matter how he was guilty, since he carried out the will of the criminal kgb

criminal soviet union, that is, from now on. by the way, on this, uh, a precedent has been set. to release nazi criminals, who surrendered to the authorities of the frg , stashinsky received only 8 years for two murders. delayed, released from prison and his trace was lost alexander svyatogorov upon arrival in moscow was dismissed in 1967 , yuri andropov became the head of the kgb on the fiftieth anniversary of the formation of state security agencies. he personally initiates the state order for the creation of works of fiction and films that ennoble the image of the soviet chekist. thanks to andropov's initiative, the state security archives for a short period of time opened limited access to some files on the operations of the soviet foreign intelligence, and the facts of the biography of alexander svetogorov were revealed. they entered the plot of vadim kozhevnikov's book the shield and the sword, and then the script of the film of the same name by vladimir basov , first the first two series came out, then they came out

there, the third fourth series and only then at the box office. they walked, as if in parallel, that is, for one, for example, the session went there first and the second series there, the boys were hiding , they tried there in the cinema somewhere under the chairs to see, at the same time, the third and fourth series. and in general, i know that they watched eight to 10 times. e quoted. in general, they were in love with these heroes in the list of leaders of the soviet film distribution. the shield and the sword took eighth place in the year of release , it was watched by 68 million, viewers alexander svyatogora, in living civilian life after his resignation, was engaged in security at the institute of cybernetics of the national aka. demiya of sciences of ukraine passed away in kyiv in 2008 in 2023, an outstanding intelligence officer with a colossal track record would have turned 110 years old olga mokhova anastasia popova valery savelyev is a typical new russia. that's all

we wanted to talk about. kirill vyshinsky was with you today. see you soon.

we continue to review the news, russia sees no reason to extend the grain deal , sergei lavrov said at a briefing today , foreign minister noted that in honor of ukrainian grain. she has long become a commercial minister pointed out that if the deal is canceled the export of russian agricultural products will not suffer. in any case , the export of our food fertilizers continues we provide. uh, corresponding operations. eh, bypassing the geographers.
