[000:00:34;00] let's start the events in vladivostok. where today is the final day of the eastern economic forum, the day before, vladimir putin held a number of meetings with foreign guests in primorye and spoke at a plenary session, where he noted the huge role of the far eastern region for the future of russia. in

particular, about mortgages and housing construction , development of transport and gas supply. many large-scale projects are already being implemented. now the head of state has instructed to prepare a program for the modernization of the energy complex of the far east as well as the development of air transportation today in the business program of the forum there is a discussion on the topic of a global alternative to domination. western strategic sessions. also a final briefing by deputy head of government, presidential plenipotentiary envoy to the far east yuri trutnev. the former head of the austrian foreign ministry, carling neissl, is also participating in the work of the eastern economic forum and has already given an interview to my colleague anastasia efimova . i am glad to welcome you here in vladivostok, this is not the first time here, firstly, what are your impressions. what do you expect from these negotiations here in amber? yes this is my second time here. i'm glad that i was able to come here, because in st. petersburg. i only arrived on friday and it wasn’t until sunday morning, okay? will

i be able to physically get here? i was already offered to connect remotely via zoom, but i said no. i want to attend in person because it is really very important. what are my expectations? i believe that in is a perfect reflection of what is happening one way or another in terms of tectonic shifts moving east in 2016. i published one of my books if translate the title of the book into english, then it will sound the same changing of the guard my book was not translated into english german title of the book, wahabs. what does it mean that the king has changed precisely the dishes, they are such tectonic ke-political shifts, a term that was proposed by president putin and which was also used by ka scholz in an article in the magazine forain face, so it is obvious that in the situation there is a change in focus from the transatlantic to the pacific in this also there is nothing new. in fact. this the topic was already on the us agenda in the 1980s, at that time us president george w. bush paid full attention to the connection between shanghai and san francisco

, the concept of the pacific rim was used after crimea, and then in the us it was a very important topic, and when the events of 1989 took place 1991, the united states refocused its attention on the european continent to the expansion of nato. the united states focused on its new allies in central and north-eastern europe such as the baltic countries more and so further. this became a new doctrine that replaced the movement to the east. and at the same time, there was a calm, but very effective rise, not only of the people's republic of china and india, but also of the smallest asian tigers. of course, everything always went so smoothly, because the asian financial crisis happened first. the crisis of 1997, then the crisis of 2008 to 2009, during which china pulled ahead in order to somehow save the market. so over the last 20-30-40 years, depending on how we look at the broader context, there were changes and a transition from west to east. and i always like to use the following play on words, as you know, the concept

of orientation comes from the word oreot, when we orient ourselves we look for the direction to the east, we move to the east, or as the latin romans used to say, exterior. lux from the east, light, here is understood not only as the outgoing sun. well, like the enlightenment that comes from the east, so what does this forum represent? the answer to all this is now in the context of such a shift and the fact that it is necessary to try to force countries to follow alliance, but as you know, many states do not want to do this. do you think brick can be a new solution? uh, closed the brix association formed as a group of large producers and consumers of commodities, and in the early 2000s i was often invited as a speaker to industry conferences on commodities during that period. i just wrote my first book about the oil and gas industry called energy poker, and i had the honor of attending a lot of such

conferences, mainly in germany and was it’s very interesting to watch commodity experts such as the american jim rogers with whom i took part in various discussions, then that’s all they talked about. about brig then south africa joined the association, i am an abbreviation. received the letter c and now brix is ​​in the spotlight. these countries turned out to have these markets because raw materials were extremely important . initially, russia and brazil were perceived as producers of raw materials. after which there was a shift in their perception, they became subjects with a certain weight. and when they start discussing new currency baskets, when they create their own fund, how did they do it? brix everything changes so brix is ​​no longer just an object of the market, but turns into its subject. i would say that this is the main change that has occurred and that i see becoming over time. it is clear whether brix plus will become a replacement for other existing international organizations on this topic. i have written several articles, for example, for rt, in

which i point out that this is a matter of approach. it all depends on whether there is a desire to marry framework of a certain number of decision makers and turn brix into a huge organization, but what will be the internal mechanisms of decision making, you know the model, there are 27 strange members - this is too many, either you all sit at the table and there is no more discussion, or you limit the number of decision makers solutions. let's say up to ten, which i would say is the maximum. you can still agree on something without staying up late at night. this decision-making mechanism will have to work again. i don't have the slightest representation. about what discussions are being held as if in moscow in beijing or brazil but if you need my advice, unsolicited advice, then you should never go beyond a certain number of people at the table, when i invite guests to dinner, there are never more than 6 at the table 8 people , because for 6-8 guests i can prepare and serve a dish and there will be

one conversation at the table, otherwise there will be 2-3 different conversations at the table. and it changes the atmosphere and atmosphere. we see the number of countries that want join brix yes, you think, this is because of the desire to resist nato and the west, which is trying to dominate is still trying to dominate the whole world. this is what is happening now, of course, there is such a desire for dominance , how to exert influence, it all starts with the scholarship of your treatment of people in your community , the formation of like-minded people from them, the united states has managed to eastern south-eastern europe in whatever strange region you go to, if you listen to modern prime ministers and presidents otkosova to the baltic countries, you will hear an american accent, and they all studied for some time in an american school or american university, perhaps for the usa this is already a very strong anchor that brings results. in addition, of course, this is also the attractiveness of the old american

way of life , which as a concept probably doesn't work anymore. as effective as ever. this is my observation over the past 10 years, how university teachers used to receive scholarships from us universities and decided to stay in the country after completing their studies. or became researchers in the field of natural sciences or another field, which over the centuries has always provided an important supply of brains to the us, now the situation has changed ; students come to the us can get a doctorate there, and then refuse to stay in the us by stating. that for various reasons they prefer to return to their home country, like india or vietnam, because the opportunities there will probably be better. but it ’s not just about opportunities for career growth , i think it’s also about the american a way of life that many people no longer accept and disagree with to the same extent as they did in the 1970s or 1980s, it was a different america then, it was

a different canada in today's crisis. we see that the stakes are constantly rising and we do not see any signs that western countries want to stop in russia. we feel this pressure very strongly, in your opinion, where will all this lead and what scenario do you see for ukraine now? according to my understanding of history, when it comes to war, they only end when there is total attrition wars don't end just because someone suddenly says maybe we should stop because it doesn't make any sense anymore. and this is the situation now for ukraine. its offensive has already exhausted people, but not those who supply it with money and weapons, in particular. this is germany denmark usa and so on. they are not exhausted. it is the ukrainians themselves who are exhausted. perhaps not those who make decisions about the population, and here i am afraid that we will reach some kind of deadlock. i do not think that there will be some kind of clear turning point

, as it happened in 1945, when the exhaustion was complete, obvious exhaustion set in, and we can clearly establish the date when this happened - it was in may. so here i am afraid that everything will come to a dead end and it is still unknown. what will happen to the doctrine put forward by the west, according to which russia must be defeated militarily. i believe that this doctrine will not be implemented in this way if russia has not suffered a military defeat, if a deadlock situation has formed, what does this mean for nato and for the european union the fact is that this will have a certain impact on their cohesion, we already see a lot of disagreements, hungary is number one, but there is also turkey, a nato member who holds different views on the situation different from the views of brussels, if there is non-international thinking, because there is no alternative, then this is not thinking at all, but just a very stupid approach when it does not work. this should have a certain impact on their own structures. let's wait and see. i have no idea what will happen in the day they have to admit that their

approach didn't work. ah, i don’t understand something, my last question, but in europe the impression is that now europe follows all the rules set by the united states , do you think that in this conflict after this conflict europe can begin to take more and more into account its own interests. you know, when i was a minister, i never had any problems with the united states. there has never been a single call from the us embassy or anywhere else, no one said, we would wanted to see if we were asking for help. perhaps this is the impression from the outside: for me, the united states has never been a problem in terms of what i planned. for example, i tried to implement a program for demining the territory and restoring agriculture in syria in many respects of this program. it was i who was involved in this issue and i was supported by the main

stakeholders in syria, which became a stumbling block, who began to put a spoke in the wheels, the decision-making process began to slow down the european commission in the huge structure of the european commission has thousands of narrow-minded administrative civil servants and apparatchiks. he's an apparatchik of the bureaucracy. this is a huge bureaucratic machine that has no political thinking and does not take into account the broader context and that is. this was a problem for me, as a minister, and not at all the united states, so in europe the decision makers are dirty in a huge bureaucracy. we limit our participation. the fact that we adhere to the agreed position of the theses of the speech, written by political scientists inside the european commission. and most importantly, they are boring, these agreed upon positions are very boring. they are too far from the reality of entheophage. absolutely right. so it's not about the united states. the problem is that the huge bureaucracy has no

idea what's going on in terms of larger political issues. you run and think, they will change. i don’t know whether they will change or not, but as it seems to me , the problem is not the united states that will become over time. clear thank you very much gasification in the far east , construction of lng production plants and social facilities , general director of the eastern arctic oil and gas corporation stanislav neverov 700 alekseevich spoke about this in an interview with my colleague anton borisov on the sidelines of the eastern economic forum. i greet you. thank you for agreeing to answer our question. hello, your company in the far east is engaged in large-scale investment projects, in particular gasification. could you tell us more about this? what projects can there will literally be new developments , and a few minutes ago, at a culinary meeting

, the president announced once again that master plans for a number of far eastern cities and master plans for those far eastern cities that do not have access to the main gas supply system have been approved. almost all of them will, in one way or another, be subject to autonomous lng gasification, gasification, liquefied natural gas. our company is directly involved in this kind of gasification. our company will supply gas and is already supplying gas, a first i honor the queue in the city. and where gasification should be completed by the end of the twenty-fourth year as part of the federal clean air project, and after that in severobaikalsk , which also needs to be classified, from the point of view of both the environment and the budgetary effect. well, i understand correctly that you are building another plant for this. yes, for gas liquefaction or a absolutely true for consortia of our company and the aurora lng group a the first lng plant was built in the primorsky territory, and for this plant within the framework of the eastern economic

gas was turned on at the forum, and in the very near future. let the setup activities be completed and we will be able to issue ready-made commercial products literally in the month of october. regarding the price of gas for consumers. it will not be too high, no, the price of gas for the consumer will correspond to the price of traditional fuel that consumers have today, and the difference between the cost of the price for the consumer and market prices, because. we, as an investor, also sell gas. uh, it can’t be cheaper, we need to go investments and will be subsidized by the state. the decision has already been made , supported by the leadership of the federal government, and will be implemented . i can’t help but ask you about russian technologies during gasification. for example, did you have to solve this problem of replacing imported ones, maybe building the plant itself. well, we, uh, to some extent, were lucky to make it in time, uh, with

the first plant. and we will say such a word to slip through even before the latest sanctions packages related to technologies, but liquefied natural gas. but taking into account the fact that we are now building a second plant in the khabarovsk territory, the design of the plant is being completed, and there we will actively use russian technologies, and for this we are investing here in the far east and in education and science. and in order to, as they say , grow from a young age. eh, personnel for future technologies, because that’s what we ourselves need. well, yes, yes, in khabarovsk, too, and your company is actively developing in this area. yes within the wizard plan for the city of khabarovsk, approved by the president on the sidelines of the eastern economic forum, is one of the key projects. this is an interuniversity campus in the khabarovsk campus, which should unite 30,000 students from the countries of the asia-pacific region and russia . today, the design is undergoing examination by the heads of the state examination and its construction, individual

elements of construction, will begin in the spring. we will implement it already in the fall of this year '26. a new modern multifunctional campus will appear in khabarovsk, which will become a place to live, a place to study, to work , to realize your creative potential in the far east as a whole. how do you assess the situation with personnel and in particular of your company, and the situation with personnel, to be honest, is not easy a and not easy. it is because today we have a trend of outflow of talented schoolchildren from the regions of the far east to study in large cities. such as st. petersburg or novosibirsk, and at the same time , companies like ours and almost all state companies that come here with investments, but they bring them, then they bring back personnel from central russia, that is, there is such a mutual outflow of talented schoolchildren from here and an influx of specialists here from central russia. well, what does this lead to, this leads, in fact, to uh, increased costs for any

business , and since it is much cheaper and more correct to train a specialist here, give him the opportunity to start a family and give him the opportunity. uh, get a normal job, however, due to the fact that for a long time, and these questions. a. well, probably just before 2012-2013 were not in the zone, but there was increased attention from the federal authorities and only in recent years a program for the development of mortgages and access to education began actively, then in the near future this situation should change. but for this to happen , some more years must pass. well, at the same time, you, as a business, actively interact with the authorities in terms of training and, of course, social. of course, we as a company, in addition to building lng plants and building a gasification system, are building schools in the far east and our first school on september 1 of this year, i accepted my first

800 students in chita. and we are building schools in khabarovsk, in vladivostok, we are building interuniversity campuses and sports facilities , the martial arts palace is finishing its design, also on the sidelines of the last forum, and a constitutional agreement was signed. we also expect this project to be implemented in a very simple plan. and i think that the master plans of far eastern cities are probably like this. and zhemchuzhina in general, and the far eastern development, which we have these plans to become. at the same time, a challenge. yes? naturally, we have one large russian state-owned company, and the slogan is that dreams come true with it? and here are the master plans. i think that dreams will come true for residents of the regions of the far east. our task, within the framework of those projects that we have undertaken, is to implement them efficiently within the established

time frame and with the necessary result, our activities, our investment projects in order to make life, and for the residents of the far east and more environmentally friendly, more comfortable and more accessible from the point of view of sports education. by the way, yes switching to gas. this is an environmental plus ; the implementation of the clean air project in chita will reduce the amount of emissions into the atmospheric air by 19%. and if the city. uh , today we are among the top ten most polluted in the country, then after the implementation of the project, clean air will be gasified. in the cities of chita, the amount of emissions should be reduced ; breathing will become easier; life will become more comfortable. i thank you for taking the time to answer our questions. i wish you a big thank you. thank you very much paratroopers from novorossiysk

destroyed the british challenger tank, a blow struck behind the cornet missile system to make sure whether the nato tank had been hit, sent a drone to the site , the information was confirmed, according to the fighters , the challenger is on fire, like other tanks, and differs from domestic ones only in dimensions. it is much larger, which means it is easier to hit. and they decided to check, they sent the copter there, it flew there, and it looked like there was actually a challenger standing there and it was burning for a long time, it was burning for a very, very long time, that is, it was burning for more than a day simply exploded several times, then the strikers destroyed the infantry fighting vehicles, destroyed a lot of them, and therefore these vbm and pickups. it’s as if we didn’t count against the carnet yet, where there would be leopards standing, we ’ll let go of the challenger, especially the abrams. in the us congress , the pressure on joe biden to resign is growing, according to the speaker of the house of representatives. voters have the right to know

about the machinations of the american president. so there is no way to avoid investigation. it officially starts in just a few days about how all this will affect the upcoming election race in the united states ekaterina radaeva kevin mccarthy solemnly announces the facts of corruption of the biden family, there is so much to ignore. they can no longer be against president biden, there are incredibly strong charges and a picture emerges of the existing culture, corruption we know, to the american people, when he said that he does not know, and transactions with foreign business members. his family. witnesses testified that the president negotiated numerous times, both by telephone and in person. bank records show $20 million sent by biden family member. through gasket companies. there are grounds for accusations of abuse of power , violations and corruption. i am directing the house committee to open a formal impeachment inquiry into president joe

biden from the treasury department. the us has information on more than 150 biden-related transfers that are flagged as suspicious activity. the investigation will allow access to bank account data. family of the us president it will be possible to track all corrupt transactions, former prosecutor general of ukraine viktor shokin confirmed as soon as he undertook to investigate the illegal fraud of the brusima company, in which biden’s son held a high position. hunter fired him on the spot. and i achieved this personally. biden. he even came to ukraine. and in order for kiev to hush up the matter, he ensured the transfer of a billion dollars and replaced the case, a signature feature of the us president . he did exactly the same thing when his son hunter was threatened with a real sentence for non-payment of taxes and illegal possession of weapons. hunter got off slight fear. although, as it turned out, he lied to the investigation when asked by journalists. biden. he simply shrugs it off. mr. president, what do you think of the court’s decision in the hunter case? the republicans plan

to complete the investigation before the new year. the house of representatives, where they have a majority , will most likely approve the impeachment, but then the case will go to the senate, where the democrats are in power, and they will do everything, to let the impeachment of biden be what the republicans will arrange. this is some kind of political circus in washington. yes, they will start a big impeachment investigation. uh, they will drag witnesses to congress to give testimony, including, uh, former business partners. hunter biden will be provided with documents confirming the facts of the corruption of the bane family. then they will roll out their articles of impeachment. the so -called, and the house of representatives voted for them with a simple majority. uh, they will be approved and then they will go. everyone needs them, most likely he will take them away, so this is where it will all end . thus, the removal of biden from power is unlikely to threaten, but before elections, this whole scandal could become fatal for his plans to take the post of us president for a second time. in addition, it could greatly

undermine the financing of ukraine. even now , the majority of americans are against increasing support for kiev and against the backdrop of such a scandal and the failure of biden’s offensive. it is unlikely that we will be able to extract tens of billions of dollars more for zelensky. ekaterina radaeva will lead and return to vladivostok, strategies of russian business and development of the mortgage lending market, demography and space projects, domestic cars gasoline prices. and, of course, the development of the far east is the topic of the plenary meeting of the eastern economic forum. vladimir putin from vladivostok took part in it and my colleague anastasia efimova joins the broadcast. anastasia hello, tell us what questions have caused the greatest resonance, what is currently being discussed at the forum sites. yes good morning. well, more precisely, i should say,

good afternoon. alexey is here on our last final day, the eastern economic forum is already in full swing. a variety of questions. a variety of sessions they are discussing, of course, discussing issues of global politics of change, in which changes are happening literally before our eyes and on these very days kim jong-un officially arrived in russia. the korean leader is traveling on a train, where he was met by the head of the ministry of natural resources , alexander kozlov, the train, by the way, is the same on which kim jong-un traveled to russia last time. let me remind you that this was in the spring of 2019, and then the meeting with the north korean leader and the russian president took place right here, where we are. now on the russian island where the leaders will meet this time has not yet been officially announced. it is known that this will be the far east, but not the exact time, not the exact place, and we don’t know, in the coming days the press secretary of the russian president limited himself to this wording.

dmitry peskov, but the day before, when kim jong-un actually arrived in russia, he had already talked to him, the head of primorye and , as oleg kozhemyako reported, they talked about a number of issues that could be the subject of cooperation between north korea and the russian in the far east, these include projects in agriculture and construction, and even tourism. well, of course, work in this direction can be continued. only when all covid restrictions are lifted in north korea, and the current visit of the north korean leader. let me remind you, the first foreign one after the end of the pandemic, so it is clear that pyongyang attaches special importance to it. of course, they have already responded to the news about kim jong-un’s arrival in russia . washington, state department spokesman matthew miller said that he will be attentive monitor the events currently taking place in russia. and of course, in the case of military-technical cooperation, moscow and pyongyang will not remain on the side. well, in general , sanctions are once again threatened , however, it is quite obvious that moscow

will not focus on them when speaking at the plenary sessions the day before. vladimir putin emphasized again. whatever the results of the presidential elections in the united states, i remind you that they will take place in the next year of global changes in the bilateral agenda. they definitely won't bring it. if the united states believes that ukraine is ready for negotiations, but then let them cancel the decree of the president of ukraine that prohibits negotiations. the president issued a decree there. he forbade himself from negotiating and everyone else, like glinkin. he says that they are ready, one gets the impression that they want it, as their western curators are pushing them to the maximum concrete what they can do, and then when all the resources, both human resources and

technology, will be close to zero. to achieve a stop to hostilities, say but we have been saying for a long time that we want negotiations and to begin these negotiations in order to replenish our resources and restore combat effectiveness. this means their armed forces . by the way, returning to the visit. the day before, when meeting him, the head of the ministry of natural resources gave a gift to kim jong-un. these are three photographs of soviet cosmonauts with the autographs of yuri gagarin, the first man in space, and, of course, the legendary designer sergei korolev, these are truly unique photographs, a unique gift for the development of space. by the way, vladimir putin the day before, at the plenary session, he also spoke, including commenting on the lunar program and, of course, luna 25, which will land. as a matter of fact, i couldn’t, which does not mean that work in this area will not be

continued. what are you talking about landing? this is the platform where no one has ever leaned before. well, yes, this is a complex work, of course, there, uh, that means an analysis will be carried out and the corresponding work will continue. well, it’s a pity, of course, that uh, that means the lunar landing didn’t take place there, but that’s not this means that we have completed the program and will work. further, as for private business, its spread. he is certainly an outstanding person. this must be admitted. well , i think this is recognized all over the world, all over the world. well, uh, active, talented and businessman. he does a lot, including with the support of the american state. for our part, we also intend to develop this work and roscosmos has already made a decision supported
