tv channel russia 24, of course, we continue to follow the incoming information at the beginning of the next one. eh, this is precisely the information hour. i would like to pay attention to what is happening in europe worries a lot of people. i mean large-scale protests in france and not only in france. and we will discuss other issues with the first deputy chairman of the federation council committee on security defense vladimir alien with us in touch vladimir alekseevich greetings. good afternoon. good afternoon. well, the topic is,

of course, it is very difficult to do without double standards. how do you understand the assessments of what is happening in europe and what europeans before that gave assessments during similar performances taking place there , including in our country, who were there in the tenth and tenth years. well, one way or another , it turned out such a situation that now france uh hmm well, in many of its parts it is blazing. and how is it in general, in your opinion has an impact on european security, and uh, we for our part have something there too. uh, we say such things that it's enough to actually oppress. uh, regime fighters or something like they used to show us. that's just what i want to ask. you will know, if we talk about european security, and in the classical sense, as if we were used to doing it for decades, then today it

does not exist at all, if we talk about the impact, he of the current french events on the surrounding countries on the uh countries european continent, then i think that the main thing is that paris' claims for a leading role, or at least for different let's say. uh, germany's role in european affairs. they are, uh, because of these events, of course, severely undercut , not by chance that president macron was forced, but to shorten his stay in brussels at the eu summit a. and contacts with both berlin and london, by the way, well, uh, i suspect that after all

, he will go to the nato summit in vilnius with a paper clip. yes, well , most likely, in the same place, the issue is resolved very importantly. we'll get back to them a bit later. vladimir alekseevich, here's what's what these speeches, according to your assessment, based on the degree of confrontation that are on the streets of french, not only french cities. we are now watching, and what these speeches can lead to is about the same as what they led to and in the united states they shouted , shouted, then calmed down, i mean. and i would suggest looking at, the background of the issue directly in france was everything was the sixty-eighth year, but as a result of what? uh president de gaulle uh with his a halo, but an active participant in the second world war, in fact , he was forced by one of the winners. uh, in general, inglorious to retire, but there were closer ones. uh,

us the events of the unrest of 2005. expand a powerful e strong president. and they didn't last a week. that's like the current, but a few months. yes, uh, chirac his government survived, but it was a strong shock, of course. and finally, under the current president macron, the movement of yellow vests, which also lasted quite a long time, so you can consider what happens as part of the tradition, but as they say, why would the chairs break what they achieve? uh, activists, it’s hard to say about this movement, because they don’t express any specific goals, uh. it's more, uh, demonstrations and riots, rather dictated by a sense of protest. yes, uh

, there was this murder of a seventeen-year-old algerian, and who, uh, was leaving the traffic police there, without a driver's license, by the way, speaking, ah. about the policeman, in fact, they have already been appointed, so to speak. and you of this story, the last one took him into custody, he will be tried for premeditated murder. and this is pretty serious. as you understand, a is an article, but nevertheless, if we compare how much a sympathy in monetary terms, for example, fundraising for the family of a policeman and fundraising in the family of this algerian youth, then this is about five to one, and from this we can conclude that in general, but hmm, the population of france is not

happy with it. it's happening. well, it doesn't hurt, but this spontaneous protest residents. as a name, that is, a suburb in paris and other large cities, and where uh live in a generation of french citizens who, so to speak, differ in ethnic origin and skin color, but this must be said, uh, characteristic phenomena for france for many other western european countries, including germany, once their parents were there or maybe their grandfathers had already arrived as guest workers for work. they, uh, worked honestly, received pensions, and settled down , bought a house, raised children, or maybe

already grandchildren, but, as a rule, everyone is big , but the number of jobs that they could absorb. here is the next generation of new french new germans from so many jobs already. moreover, even their father's or grandfather's workplace there could have long gone somewhere to a third country. and if it's metallurgy there, or, uh, another dirty production, that's how the restless generation turns out. uh, to which the current authorities. uh, in general, well, i would not like to say that i don’t give a damn, but according to at least, but not the focus of the current authorities. from uh, on this basis , all this is obtained. well, it’s very interesting here, it turns out, on the one hand , on the principle of democracy, on which they all

the time rested on the fact that every person should have the right, and votes and such street performances. remember when there were uh speeches in the middle east and north africa uh, respectively, if these people did not give this right to speak accordingly. the entire collective west was indignant now. uh, you gave an example in 68. because of what there was a degul. yes, he was forced to retire. that is, he listened to those people who, accordingly, all spoke. but now it turns out, yes, with all the democracy and with all that aspiration. yes, uh, to listen to all the opinion, it turns out that this part of the population, oh, which we are talking about, but there is no lower leg. well, you can talk about the principles of democracy for a long time, maybe even endlessly, by the way, no one has the right to work. hmm well,

i didn’t promise the french generation, and then, well, i’ll limit myself to a short the conclusion that the macron is not de gaulle a and not shrek, well, and now in the sixty-second year. yes, alekseevich is still in power. e. hmm , doesn't it seem to me here, at least it seems that in this story there is one very strange knife. hmm the story is something they didn't find until the russian trace here in bm found the russian trace in the united states a in this story. well, in any way, probably, they are looking for no way to find. yes, but you offer to help them. well , of course, well, probably the people there have already broken their whole brains. what to do in this situation, well vladimir alekseevich will sort it out themselves , of course, everyone is waiting now. well, of course, and on how these performances end. yes, in france, in switzerland , even they have already begun in belgium and so on,

but most of what directly concerns european security. at least that's how it's positioned. this is the upcoming nato summit in vilnius, which , nevertheless, reluctantly, will be forced to go to the macron, despite the unrest that is taking place in his country. eh, what to expect here ukraine's goals are clear. they are very big in the european union. you know, eh? mm, i'm afraid to make a mistake, but it seems to me that this summit will be more of a passing one, because those fateful decisions. uh, who are counted on, the initiators of such, they are unlikely to materialize. i mean, it’s a question, but about a definition, well, let’s start with the question of sweden’s membership in nato and signs that turkey will withdraw its objection, but

for now it’s not visible, but hungary also has a certain objection to this. uh, this is the first second e as for the ukrainian story, i think, well, in fact , the secretary general, stoltenberg and others are already transparently hinting at this, that a decision will be made on the transfer. but the fact that it was called the commission, ukraine nato kunformat. tips council ukraine nato dream. ah, that is, in fact, strictly speaking, they will not bring relations with ukraine to the same formal level at which our relations with nato were until we came to what the russian nato council came to, and, if you remember, that's about the same e is different. this

something like that. e, protocol, but a permutation there, and unlike the e commission, which must be said that in past years. uh, kiev, uh, and the leadership there was very worried that their level of relations is lower than that of russia. but now , after we have severed relations with nato, they, uh, will achieve this. well, that doesn't mean anything. it doesn't bring them closer to, uh , membership in the alliance, it could uh bring them closer to, uh, adopting a plan for membership. this is the so-called uh or membership. well, so far, uh, there

are no hints that such a decision will be made, uh. well, uh, it’s not by chance that mr. zelensky in his next hysteria, but sternly warned the nato member countries that if there is no serious progress, he will not come at all, but this is not a question not of us, but a question of relations between ukraine and the north atlantic alliance so, well, and uh, in general, of course, issues will be discussed, and the supply of weapons replenishment of those, uh, depleted stocks, and weapons in nato countries but this, uh, this is to be expected. eh, what there will be specific solutions, let's see some extra money, but it seems no one has much. but

there was such an offer. well, probably already out of desperation, just to somehow agree, in general, on ukraine's membership in nato, and now, in my opinion, this week at the beginning of the week. uh, someone in europe suggested that. let's partially accept ukraine into nato, that is , literally in parts, that is, that part of ukraine that, uh, is under the control of the kiev regime. she is now nato well, it's worth it then somehow we will figure it out, probably heard it too. well, fantasy. uh, often in situations like this has no boundaries. this reminds me of the well-known maxim of partial pregnancy, especially since, if we talk about territories, then, but territories after all, any

fixation of any dividing line on the territory of ukraine and her. and, especially at the nato level, it would be legitimized. but uh, the main point of uh, zelensky's maximum e program is reconquest. uh, all the territories as of there in the ninety-first year, and so i don't think it's a pass option. as, for example, here is what concerns the figure of a man who is the head of the atlantic alliance, yes, this week, in my opinion, uh, just the chair at the entrances did not stagger at the same time as stoltenberg . yes, he was offered a year. save your authority, but at the same time, uh , the american buildings are already predicting this chair from

sulfa-la. well, first of all, i disagree with you , er, the man who runs nato, his name is joe baikong. as for stoltenberg, its extension for a year is forced decision in many ways about ursula vonderlen. i frankly doubt it because it's uh. well, if we talk about the consequences of such a decision, then o this would accelerate, uh, the collapse or uh, the death of this lecture, knowing her a talents, but there are also formal ones, but nato still tries to put them on the chair of the secretary general from

someone who at least led the government of his country. before the leadership of germany, ursula, uh, thank god was not allowed. and so let's see, there are different ones. and by the way, no less unpleasant options, like further mushrooms kite of the former president. e, lithuania a. well, uh they say. oh, uh, danish premier. well, let's see, but i must say e indirect confirmation that, in general , the last word remains with washington is that the candidacy is removed from the run, damn it, the british secretary of defense will resign too e, not only because of the united

states e- uh, there is a dual perception, uh , of the british of the power of historical moments, but also the fact that in the european union, after a breeze, you see any englishman at some international high post, they also have no special friends. and so, uh, let's see, but then again, he was not the prime minister, yes, and in the army he only rose to the rank of captain. yes, there was still news today or the day before, quite disturbing, especially for those who, despite everything, now continue to travel around the european union . we have cars of russian cars. here in germany they have already begun to confiscate the personal car of russians, since they are subject to a ban under the new recently introduced rules, and the import of passenger cars from russia to the eu is still

this, of course, is an isolated case only in germany. what are the chances that the eu countries will soon take on ordinary russians. and i think that this is a rather vulnerable position, because , well, some people generally see this as an inaccurate translation from english into german, because the original decision of the european union is in the english version, and we are talking about importing cars from russia and to the eu countries, but cart and import. these are slightly different things. that's much wider because uh sanctions were aimed primarily at uh putting an end to the actual trade including cars.

and so let's see, i do not exclude that we are talking about some kind of local initiative, so maybe the situation will be clarified, because politically, the european union all the time declares that its sanctions are not directed, but against ordinary citizens of russia, although practice. uh, this is exactly the case and moreover, uh, i will say of course that i would not advise any of the u citizens of russia now to drive a car with a russian number, but on the territory of the european union and this is not safe not just from a point of view. uh, further car ownership, but there is in terms of

personal safety of those rather passengers and drivers who can drive. as they say, choose detour routes, or flying around, yes, or on some other transport, only as long as it is possible vladimir alekseevich thank you very much for being with us on the air. let me remind you, we talked with vladimir chizhov, first deputy committee of the federation council on defense and security uh, almost 200 billion rubles. the volume of bank lending has increased opening at the beginning of the year here the head of the financial organization, mikhail alekseev, spoke about this in an exclusive interview with our channel. he also explained how such growth occurred and commented on the final results of integration with vtb bank mikhail yuryevich hello now, at the financial congress, they are discussing the future of the russian

banking system. how do you see the future of russian banks and your forecast for the development of this business? well, i think the russian banking system. ah, good future. uh, coming term she's russian. uh, the financial market will retain a large number of credit institutions. all of them will be quite effective, and they will compete with each other, as well as with large ecosystems that will collect large amounts of data about their customers, but in general banking. uh, the sector will maintain its good profitability. uh, profitability and sustainability this year. you headed the bank otkritie tell me how the process of integrating the opening into the vtb group is going in accordance with the plan for the entire thirty-year

history of the russian banking sector, and the project for integrating otkritie bank into the vtb system is, perhaps, one of the most ambitious complex e and multifaceted interesting projects. we plan to continue operating in 2023 this year. basically, in the same perimeter in which otkritie bank has been working to date, and the most active integration measure will be implemented next year 2025. we will complete these activities part of the clients, and next year they will move to the vtb group just recently it was announced that the number of clients opened reached 1 million people, tell us about the development of the retail business. what are our goals for 2023

the british and french wanted to do everything they could to prevent war. my grandfather always considered an alliance with russia as the main condition for more than 20,000 people on biblo day during the great patriotic war. we are at a very dangerous moment in human history, what is happening now in ukraine is the lessons of goebbels textbook 2018, the june 22 edition is designated as the beginning of the german-soviet war. well, ukraine has nothing to do with lessons of the past. otherwise, we will repeat it politicians using speculators from history make a decision on the basis.
