moscow will give the order to cease fire and begin negotiations; our correspondent followed vladimir putin’s speech at the mfa building. the world is changing

as before, it will never be the same, but these global changes inspire hope for a new, fairer global security architecture and a final exit from the ukrainian crisis, russian president vladimir putin said today at the ministry of foreign affairs. we believe that the time has come to begin a broad discussion of a new system of bilateral and multilateral guarantees of collective security in europe. wherein in the future, we must work towards a gradual reduction in the military presence of external powers in the eurasian region. we understand, of course, that in the current situation this thesis may seem unrealistic, but this is now, but if we build a reliable security system in the future, there will simply be no need for such a presence in non-regional military contingents, and by and large, to be honest, today there is no need for this.

ultimately, we believe that the state and regional structures of eurasia themselves must identify specific areas of cooperation in the field of joint security, based on the fact that they themselves must build a system of working institutions, mechanisms, mechanisms of agreements that would actually serve the achievement of common goals, stability and development. vladimir emphasized that we must proceed from the fact that the system is open to everyone.

sometimes one gets the impression that ruling european politicians and representatives of the european bureaucracy are more afraid of falling out of favor with washington than of losing the trust of their own people, their own citizens.

ukraine is supposedly defending itself and can do it. i want to emphasize once again: russia did not start the war. this is the kiev regime, i repeat, after the residents of the unit. ukraine, in accordance with international law, declared its independence and began hostilities and continues them. this is aggression. if we recognize the right of these peoples living in these territories to declare their independence. but what about it? what then is it? this is aggression. and those who over the past years have helped the military machine of the kiev regime are accomplices of the aggressor. and more details, vladimir putin today stopped at the first weeks.

many western politicians offered their mediation in the peaceful end of the conflict, one of them was on a working visit to moscow on march 5 , 2020, march 5, and we accepted his mediation efforts, especially since during the conversation he referred to the fact that he had secured support from the leaders of germany and france, as well as senior us officials. during the conversation, our foreign guest asked whether our troops, the russian ones, would remain in kherson and zaporizhzhya regions, and what will happen to these regions after achieving the goals of the northern military district? to this he replied that, in general, i do not rule out maintaining ukrainian sovereignty over these

territories, however, on the condition that russia has a strong land connection with crimea, that is, kiev must guarantee the so- called easement. the negotiating partner said that in the future he was going to go to kiev to continue the conversation, now with colleagues in the ukrainian capital, we welcomed this as a general attempt to find a peaceful settlement conflict, because every day of fighting meant new casualties, but in ukraine, as we later learned, the services of a western mediator were not accepted, on the contrary, as we...

expired along with his legitimacy, which cannot be restored by any tricks. in fact, the current tragic page in the history of ukraine began with the forceful seizure of power, as i already said, an anti-constitutional coup in 2014. i repeat, the source of the current kiev regime is an armed bunch, and now the circle is closed. the executive power in ukraine is again, as in 2014, usurped, held illegally, in fact is illegitimate, i will say more, the situation with the cancellation of elections is an expression of the very nature of the real guts of the current kiev regime, which grew out of the armed coup of 2014, is tied to

it and there are its roots. this weekend in switzerland there will be a so-called conference on ukraine, western countries are declaring it as... a kind of summit at which important decisions can be made, but it is obvious that without russia’s participation it will any negotiations make no sense. as you know, they began to actively promote the initiative to hold a so -called high- level international conference on peace in ukraine in switzerland. what the organizers of the meeting in switzerland are proposing is just another ploy to divert everyone’s attention, reverse the cause and effect of the ukrainian crisis, and let it go. a discussion on a false trail, to some extent indicate the appearance of legitimacy of the current executive power in ukraine once again. the real roots of the ukrainian conflict in switzerland, of course, is not going to be discussed in principle, despite all attempts to give a more or less decent appearance to

the conference agenda. we can already expect that everything will come down to general conversations of a demagogic nature and a new set of accusations against russia. our conditions for starting such a conversation are simple and boil down to the following: ukrainian troops must be completely withdrawn from the donetsk, lugansk people's republics, kherson and zaporozhye regions, and i draw your attention, precisely from the entire territory of these regions, within their administrative boundaries that existed at the time of their driving. to ukraine, as soon as they declare in kiev that they are ready for such a decision, they will begin a real withdrawal of troops from these regions, and also officially notify about the abandonment of plans to join nato, from our side immediately, literally at the same minute, an order will follow to cease fire

start negotiations. i repeat, we will do this immediately, of course, at the same time we will guarantee the unhindered and safe withdrawal of ukrainian units and... today we we are making another concrete, real peace proposal, if in kiev and in the western capitals they also refuse it, as before, then in the end it is theirs... we are not going to run after anyone, our ambassadors in the relevant

capitals will convey in detail the text of the president's speech will further explain what is meant, the background of this whole situation, and we will expect that the reaction will follow. vladimir putin stressed that the basic agreements on the peace settlement must be recorded by international treaties, and naturally the lifting of sanctions against russia is also expected. thus, moscow has now named its conditions for the final settlement of the conflict; if kiev and the west refuse to fulfill these conditions, this will be their responsibility. khramtsova, yuri gonchar, valery glushakov, news. the west needs to continue the confrontation until the last ukrainian, so putin’s peace initiative was predictably received with hostility. however, kiev had a chance to stop the war. so the press secretary of the russian president commented stormy.

today they finally drew a line under the thesis of zelensky’s illegitimacy, and they have a chance, they have a chance to consider putin’s peace initiative, taking into account the current realities on the fronts, to stop the war and move on to peaceful regulation. and in solnechnogorsk near moscow, vladimir putin met with military participants in the presidential program.

it is from among the participants of the svo that the most reliable personnel reserve for the country will be formed. some who are currently undergoing

training went to the front as civilians. positions. where did you work before mobilization? i am now a deputy of the state duma, vladimirich. you were a deputy, now you are a deputy, i agreed with volodin, he let me go, signed the contract in full, and left, accordingly, as a volunteer for the front. unexpected for me. and where were you elected as a deputy? before that, you were mayor for 5 years from the sixteenth to the twenty-first. i was the mayor of the city of krasnodar, and were you the mayor of krasnodar? what is your name? eugene? yes, evgeniy. yes. i will have it for you offer. i'm with the team. well, that's good too.

career officers, mobilized officers, as well as volunteers who went to the front participate in the program. among them are 20 heroes of russia. an award, every regalia, every attribute on the uniform of an officer, a soldier, it always obliges us to do something, and as we were told recently in one of the classes, responsibility is everyone’s personal choice, if we have applied these attributes to ourselves, then there is definitely responsibility, therefore, our every word, action, it obliges us, obliges us to always remember our responsibility at a meeting the thesis was clearly stated: every serviceman who has distinguished himself in his zone should have the opportunity to take this educational course. we have almost 700,000 in the special military operation zone. the time of heroes program is designed for those people who want, are ready, have some kind of training, already basic, there is a higher education, something else,

yes, but they have ambitions and, most importantly, ambition. claim growth, career growth in the best sense of the word. as program participants say, the time of heroes opens up great opportunities, but at the same time sets high requirements. everyone will look at us, they will make an assessment about this program, and it’s not for nothing that the president came up with this task, and he is very, let’s say, all the time interested in what and how this is his brainchild, he worries about it, and he came directly to see how... what we learned, what we were taught, serious attention to the program participants in their home regions, reported to the head of the russian guard department for the chechen republic, lieutenant general darimkhanov sharif sultanovich, he in turn reported to the head chechen republic, hero of russia ramzan akhmatovich kadyrov, ramzan akhmatovich said to pay close attention to this study as much as possible, so that the study would be

expedient and useful. the educational module organized by rosatom on the icebreaker 50 years of victory gave participants a unique opportunity.

evgeny nipot, alexander merkuriev, oleg shavirin, anna malakhova and svetlana solovyova, lead solnechnogorsk. while the us military command left the helena boat under duty, the canadian patrol boat went to the end and moored at the guantanoma base. port of havana. perepologu with increased readiness caused a friendly visit to cuba of the russian military squadron and valentin bogdanov gathered a reaction to the appearance of our sailors in govan.

the so-called quiet service of the navy, something that is usually kept secret. the tactical and technical characteristics of helena, the name of the submarine sent by the united states, have long been no secret. the los angeles project boats are older, built since 1976. on board there are four torpedo tubes, anti-ship missiles harpoon and tomahawks and a displacement of two times and a speed of 25 knots versus 31 and depth. 450 m, not 500, helena is inferior, admiral gorshkov, who entered havana with the frigate , to our k-561, kazan. in addition, the submarines are of the same type. the yasen project is a modern weapon, the first submarine cruiser is only 10 years old, the main striking power is hypersonic missiles, which the united states does not have in service, neither at sea, nor on land, nor in

the air. this submarine is deadly and can fire hypersonic zircon missiles, which are six times faster than the speed of sound. they are conducting exercises just like us, but there is no need to worry. definitely stronger than any official comments, this happened with a cnn correspondent; their man in havana was quite shocked. let's

look at a nuclear submarine, we'll show you something you don't usually see. in 12 years of living here, i have never seen a russian nuclear submarine enter the port of havana, just 145 km from the united states. hardly possible. more symbolism than that. russian warships entered the port of havana, bringing back memories of the 1962 cuban missile crisis. this was the closest thing to a nuclear war between the two countries. the cuban missile crisis is what americans call the more familiar caribbean crisis. the superpowers were then one step away from a direct exchange of nuclear strikes, when we filmed a report on the anniversary of those events, and it was impossible to imagine that the current bely administration.

at school they tried to make us afraid, but my family was very loving and calm, they said: don’t worry, we love you, like they made you afraid at school, jump under the table, cover your heads. in the age of the internet, everyone has it in their hands gadgets. the miami herald reports that florida residents tracked the movements of russian warships online using special services. our sailors are polite people, indicating... they did not turn off their presence in an area with heavy civilian shipping; they did not turn off the transponders, which, however , does not prevent some in the united states from recalling the classic, the russians are coming. 3 and a half

years ago, biden inherited the world's prosperity, he took office, the situation in every region of the world worsened. that's why we see, for example, russian ships with hypersonic weapons in cuba. cruz, one of trump's closest associates, visited capital hill for the first time in 3 years the day before. we don't want to see russian ships right off the coast of florida, where they are now, it's unthinkable. florida is not only an important state for republicans, where there are many immigrants from cuba, but in miami there are vontzels.

to prove that russia simply knows how to be friends, and the atmosphere of this friendship is now especially felt in the port of havana. cubans today had the opportunity to visit these russians ships. the cubans' warm attitude towards our country did not disappear even during the most difficult times of the special period of the nineties, when liberty island was left alone with economic problems and with its unfriendly neighbor. you are welcome guests here. and we, cubans, have a good memory. we remember the soviet era, and the same friendship is maintained now in the new russian era with president vladimir putin.

admiral gorshkov, tugboat nikolai chikker, tanker academician pashin, as well as the submarine kazan will be in cuba until june 17. valentin bogdanov, ivan utkin and denis sokolov, american news bureau.

we watch to learn about the world, educational programs and documentaries, we watch, we watch in the application or on the website. the electricity shortage in ukraine will grow. in the coming days, energoatom will begin repairing a unit of one of the nuclear power plants. its power is 1.00 mw. in a week, five more of the existing nine blocks will be taken out for repairs. last year, the temporary loss of these capacities was partially compensated by solar generation, but

now it has fallen by... 20% due to cloudy weather. weather shutdowns at nuclear power plants, which are planned, as i understand it, will not occur simultaneously, but will occur sequentially, well, simply as part of some preventive work, if the ukrainian side has to simply stop the nuclear power plant, then in fact ukraine will lose about half of its entire produced electrical energy, which means that it will be physically impossible to reliably supply. export and so on. due to damage to generation facilities and lack of own despite all the opportunities to ensure production, ukraine in june increased purchases of electricity from european countries by more than a third. the day before it broke another record for daily imports. the total volume in one day exceeded 3,000 megawatt-hours. supplies came from romania, slovakia, poland, hungary and moldova. according to the national bank of ukraine, by the end of the year the country will spend

approximately 800.
