[000:00:00;00] development of humanitarian, cultural and educational cooperation and concrete steps, not just model legislation, but in fact everything we do is aimed precisely at, we don’t need to resist so actively, there is no need for this, we need to strengthen our interaction, filling it with specific actions, specific content, so that it is in demand, necessary, necessary, this is the main thing on which we focus our efforts. and a very quick final question, alexey moroz riya news, valentina ivanovna, when will the procedure for moldova’s exit from the cis be completed, and what do you see its consequences for the assembly and for this country itself, well, as for when the procedure will be completed, yes, this is all spelled out in our rules, after moldova’s statement about

leaving ipa, the procedure will end on february 8, from february 8 officially moldova... will no longer be a member of the cis interparliamentary assembly, for our assembly, this is no damage, the assembly continues to work, this is, of course, a huge loss, for moldova itself, we call it a commonwealth commonwealth of independent states. moldova has not been here for a long time; since the arrival of mrs. sandu, it has no longer been there. state, it is under external control and sings from someone else’s voice, so here, as they say, there is nothing to add , but the fact that moldova will lose a lot is a fact , that not all citizens, and not to say the majority, do not share the ongoing politics, planted by the west, leadership

having foreign citizenship, this is evidenced by the elections that recently took place in various government bodies, municipal others, as they did not try to manipulate, come up with procedures, weed out undesirables, dissidents, and yet, according to the voting results, they did not receive the majority they desired, which means this course does not have the support of the majority of citizens, oh, many citizens of moldova, they stand precisely for the development of cooperation, mutually beneficial cooperation and, first of all, beneficial for moldova with russia, and this factor cannot be ignored, one cannot so blindly serve those masters

for any occasion. oh, so this is precisely the goal that the russian armed forces are pursuing , for several days now the russians have even been talking about active defense, that is, they are preparing an offensive, so to speak, a counter-offensive against the offensive of the ukrainian armed forces, in the north on the liman front. and kupenska, we we see that the russians are already carrying out small operations, successful operations, let's see what comes of it, i think we can

assume that at some point the russians will actually launch a larger offensive, because they have gathered significant forces in the rear, they are talking about 3500 people, another army, the twenty-fifth army , they are accumulating significant forces, and this can only mean one thing, they are preparing for a breakthrough, i can’t tell you when, i ’m not speculating on principle, but everything points to this. and then the question, of course, is which the russians set a goal for themselves. it is quite possible, and this is my guess, that. they will try to consolidate their gains, this implies access to the former administrative borders of the donetsk and luhansk regions, but the other two regions that putin declared

russian territory on september 30 last year, namely zaporozhye and kherson, also need territory stabilization, and so do i. i believe that they will try to take odessa, because russia views odessa as a historically important russian city, and this will to mean that they would try to reunite with their occupation forces in transnistria, it would not be very difficult, but there is one point, and i think about this, after this the russians could say: we have achieved the goal of our special military operation. and the question is how will the west behave then, will it want to continue the war,

or will it decide to take this opportunity to put an end to the war? this is a big question, but there is one factor of uncertainty here. the dnieper is a wide river in some places. several kilometers, ukrainian the military tried to cross it several times in recent weeks, they were not successful , the russians still have not destroyed the bridges over the dnieper, and there are about twenty of them in the combat zone, if they did this it would be a big advantage for them, because that this would significantly complicate the supply of the ukrainian armed forces. this means that we can expect that they can also cross the dnieper, but i am convinced that they do not intend

to occupy all of ukraine, by the way, i was of this opinion from the very beginning, because it would take too much efforts, these are the occupation forces, the costs associated with this and much more, but above all, because russia, as well as the united states, want to avoid direct confrontation. if they occupied all of ukraine then essentially nato soldiers would be in russia, think also of german soldiers in lithuania exchanging glances with russians across the border and the risk of this leading to a technical or human error and escalation ensuing, which would be impossible to control politically,

the risk of this would be very great, i think, both the parties want to avoid this, i would like to hope that you have actually already answered my next question, but i will still ask you, perhaps the answer will be short and concise, because this is exactly how they always talk about it in the media, the president of ukraine, vladimir zelensky, always says that they will not stop fighting until crimea is taken and all the occupied people are returned. russian territory, do you think something like this is realistic under the circumstances? no, in fact, no one who understands anything about this matter considers this to be realistic, the ukrainian armed forces are in critical condition, what we see now is essentially a joke, this is no longer an offensive, the offensive has failed. this needs to be said.

quite clearly, but this only means that another risk arises: you see, the russian armed forces, russia as a whole, have two strategic advantages, one of which we just talked about is the logistics center in crimea. the second advantage is the ability to attack ukraine at long distances from 2 s2 to 3,000 using cruise missiles and drones, although ukraine can try to repel these attacks with the help of modern air defense systems, western systems, but it is simply not able to destroy the launchers in order to prevent such attacks from the very beginning, now... a new stage, a new phase

of the war is beginning , out of despair that this offensive , which has long been praised in the west , has now failed, ukraine is trying to carry out attacks deep in russia, the president said, i think it is... russia, that the war is gradually moving into the territory russia, its symbolic centers, and military bases, this is exactly what, now, this is exactly what ukraine is trying to do now, but this is a new stage

of escalation, the war is moving to a higher level, i have the impression that this is the last stage of escalation before ukraine will ask the west to send soldiers after the weapons systems, because the weapons systems cannot compensate for the manpower. this misconception exists among non-specialists, especially here in germany, which always talks only about weapons systems, but when absolutely. it happens that hundreds of thousands of ukrainian soldiers have died or been so seriously wounded that they can no longer fight. yes, yes, the ukrainian army is in critical condition, which is why we are talking about a new stage of the war. and we, germany, play a special

role in this. ukraine can begin this stage only if it has such systems. like taurus, although they have been trying to get atacoms systems from the americans for a long time, so far the americans have refused, why? the american president said what he said in no one is telling germany, he said, we are not supplying atacoms, we want to avoid world war iii, but in germany discussions about the taurus systems are still going on, and this is an extremely important issue. for our country. mr. general, you have already mentioned ukraine’s high losses several times. and here the media again makes it seem as if the russians suffered enormous material and human losses. and in ukraine we are talking about 100-150 thousand

people. one way or another, we know that ukraine had to pay a big price in blood. you also talked to a very respected man who is also very committed to the truth, and a few weeks before you there was colonel mcgregor, who, by the way, speaks excellent german, and he spoke about 400-46,000 people, that is, the number of dead soldiers is already approaching to half a million. he said that before the spring-summer offensive, the death toll was 4,000 people, according to his estimates, during the offensive... another 60,000 were added, can you give the number according to your data? usually, i don't give any numbers because they change every day. at the moment we see that russia is calling the numbers of losses for ukraine, and ukraine is calling

the numbers of losses for russia, and yes, even the americans, ukraine is keeping in the dark about its own. but when we talk about losses, we need to clearly understand what we mean by this, and those who received such serious injuries that they can no longer fight, this is the number mcgregor has in mind, i think these numbers are realistic, based on from what i hear from other people in the united states, some... claim that the number of casualties from the start of the offensive on june 4 is even higher than mcgregor calls it. we also need to add the following: russian losses at the beginning of the war were

high. at the first stage of the war, in the first 2-3 weeks. by now, there are... and there are fewer of them, as every military man knows, and less than those of the attacker, because the attackers go out into the open, the defenders fight from fortified positions, this is a completely different situation, besides, i just want explain why mcgregor is probably right, besides, russia has absolute air supremacy over the battlefield. in particular, the russians' use of attack helicopters is extremely effective. it should also be added that the russian armed forces have a modern information

command and control system, that is , an excellent interaction system that links intelligence. this means that once a target is detected, it can be hit within minutes, sometimes even seconds, this makes russian warfare extremely effective, and there is also a third moment, speaking about maneuver warfare, which we observed until october last year, that is, the synergistic interaction of various weapon systems, this is a skill that requires ... a long period of training, we must take into account that it takes an ordinary soldier about 10 years

to become a company commander, at at each of these stages, the group commander, the platoon commander, and finally the company commander , this art of combat is practiced, this cannot be learned in 6 weeks, and therefore in ukraine there are brigades, nine of which were trained in border, mainly in germany , and three brigades, in the sense before the offensive, three brigades trained in ukraine by western instructors, they were taught to work with western weapons systems, but during this time they could not learn how to conduct combined arms combat. let me remind you that this was criticism of the ukrainian armed forces. forces

for a powerful breakthrough, but are disorganized, such criticism is erroneous, because all this was wrong to expect from the ukrainian military, everything that i said leads us to the conclusion that the ukrainian. the losses are exorbitant compared to russian losses. here it should be noted that, again, this completely contradicts the picture that the media portrayed to us from the very beginning, namely, that russian troops cannot be surpassed in terms of amateurism, that they constantly shoot officers and even generals, that they endlessly lose equipment, what is this... the equipment was assembled almost in the stone age, this is equipment from the second world war and the cold war, and their troops are terribly

poorly trained, that the morale of the troops is also very bad, we still hear how the newspaper build constantly publishes materials where several russian soldiers speak to the camera in russian: we don’t want to fight anymore, we’re fed up with the fact that we don’t receive any ammunition or food, it adds up: army, this goes against what you tell us. the russian military is now much stronger than it was before the war, much stronger. this is a very modern, very powerful army. of course, there are exceptions , this is quite obvious, however, if we talk about the number of personnel, then in ukraine, the number of those who can, whom

can be mobilized, the german media even reported how they pay off the draft, they pay from 6 to 1000 dollars, they are exempted from the draft, they have been trying to restore order in this matter. it was no coincidence that the minister of defense, six of his deputies, the heads of military registration and enlistment offices were fired, for example, it is reported that the head of the military registration and enlistment office in odessa was able to earn several million from this, so all this needs to be considered, we have different information, here we must understand that this war, this not only... a military clash is also an informational as well as an economic war.

and journalists, the front-line soldiers of this information war, often wishful thinking, but a lot of things are not at all what they imagined, we are already accustomed to, i personally find this the most frightening thing in this whole situation. we live in an open pluralistic society, we are proud to be a democracy, and time after time we are told that we must uphold these values ​​that distinguish us from others, so what do we do? for example, the constitution of politicians not interested at all, we ignore the right to freedom of speech, though.

everyone knows that opinion is such a low german proverb, maybe you know it, the speech of one person, the speech of more than one, let there be another country... this is precisely the principle of pluralistic democracy, and not to suppress, this is the suppression of the expression of opinions, with which we, unfortunately, we have already had to deal with it in the past, it has never brought us any benefit, and it will not bring us any benefit now, of course, if we look a little away from the war in ukraine the situation in the world now, hamas, terrible footage is coming from israel, in the gaza strip a whole block has been razed to the ground, it looks like berlin in 1945, all the houses have been destroyed, previously 3,300 people lived in this block, but

now it’s impossible to live there, in general, i have to say this completely honestly, regarding this growing threat from iran in syria, israel struck the airports in aleppo and damascus without any provocation from the syrian side, it all looks like a growing fire that is engulfing everything large area, do you think that the danger of world war has increased even more , in connection with the conflict, it was taken, because i have many friends in israel, i have often visited israel, so i am not impartial, i say right away, yet i i think the situation that we allowed to develop, and we have to talk about this again for many

years now, is unbearable, we are nothing, an agreement, a peace treaty, an agreement with
