agency state information agency - these are islands of common sense, truth, accuracy, fact-checking, without

which in the modern world of disinformation, information attacks by enemies, including on our country, it is simply impossible, this should be discussed at the media forum, i am sure that this conversation will be useful, and it will add constructive elements in the general understanding in the world of what is... why is it needed, what does it do. countering fake news will be one of the main topics of the second day of the summit. foreign journalists are looking for an answer to the question of how to act promptly and preventively in relation to false information created, including with the help of artificial intelligence. i think that artificial intelligence technologies, with the help of which fake news is produced, which are used as a tool, are creating a serious problem now. disinformation, which is a significant challenge for the world. the most important thing, in my opinion, is to get reliable information, to get reliable sources

of information. this is important for journalists, it is also important to be able to verify information, and for this news agencies must cooperate with each other. the organizers of the forum said that today it is important to share developments in the fight against complex information within the brics community of countries in order to more effectively resist pressure from the west. only joint efforts of media corporations will be able to form a safe. give, to win, white, white,

place on earth than the volgograd region, the land of the heroes of the battle of stalingrad, because all these guys, in addition to training, in addition to participating in an exciting modern game, they were able to touch these great traditions, visit the memorials of the heroes of the great

patriotic war, and this will also remain in their hearts. in the final battle, two teams met, named after the rivers. akhtuba white and the volga are red, the entire course of the final game is clearly visible from here, well, and this is the closest distance from where you can film, well, since it is unsafe to come closer, too many pyrotechnics are involved, well, and the organizers asked not to interfere, not to distract the players from the final fight, the fight was tense, both teams seized the initiative, the whites were still stronger,

the german chancellor does not intend to allow ukraine to hit german long-range weapons at targets deep in russia. olaf scholz emphasized that his position will not change regardless of the decisions of the allies. moscow, meanwhile , warns that if nato countries allow kiev to use western long-range missiles, they will provoke a direct conflict between russia and the alliance. the us president and the british prime minister discussed the issue in washington. with details from the head of the new york bureau of the news agency, valentin bogdanov.

a trip for strategic unity with the us on the issue of western strikes. mr. president, what can you say about the threat of war from vladimir putin? i i can tell you, keep quiet until i speak, okay? well, what can you say about the threat of war? is it a serious threat? "you must keep quiet until i make statements, okay, anyway, welcome to the white house, mr. prime minister." putin mixed up all their cards with his warning, but they couldn't just get up from the table, they had to sit and listen to each other. the united states is ready to support you in

providing assistance to ukraine in order to protect itself from russian aggression. it is clear that... putin is not doing this won't. let's just say that putin will not win this war. the people of ukraine will win. until recently, as a rule, something like an inevitable victory of ukraine was added, but now such a thing would smack of outright trolling of the kiev regime, which starmer, who was given the floor, indirectly admitted. for us, two good allies , this relationship is really important, because we have time to talk about global problems, starting of course with ukraine, the next few weeks and months could be decisive for it, very, very important, so that we support ukraine in this war for freedom, the expression war for freedom carries a mile away with others. warriors for something or with something, for democracy, with terrorism, the west led them without consequences for years, mastering budgets, there were no red lines in

afghanistan, iraq or libya, here in ukraine they took such a line and stumbled upon it, it would not hurt to think about it, but biden dug in his heels. what will you say to vladimir putin about the threat of war, mr. president? i do not think much about vladimir putin. this clumsy coquetry is not even their own. interesting answer: biden is not thinking about putin, well of course, he must certainly be part of his calculations. what is the white house position on allowing ukraine to move forward to use some of the western-supplied weapons to fight in a way that ukraine deems appropriate? we heard from representative john kirby that we should not expect any statements on this matter or any change in policy from the us. we expect the british prime minister to provide some pressure on the president to change his mind, but starmer did not dare to press, was he scared, british reporters asked their prime minister after the meeting,

scared not of biden, but of putin. do you not get the impression that president putin is intimidating you by threatening war with nato? there is only one reason why we are having these meetings, and that is because putin has illegally invaded ukraine to solve this problem as quickly as possible. using long-range weapons to prevent and stop russia's continued ability to destroy civilian infrastructure in ukraine and , above all, kill innocent civilians in its own...

and the u.s. believes that they could be better used inside ukraine, for example in russian-occupied territories such as crimea. u.s. officials also point to the fact that some of the targets inside russia may be moved out of range, so these attacks may not be as effective in the end. and that's a question for the entire western strategies in ukraine. for example, congresswoman victoria. sparta, born victoria kulgeika, originally from the city of nosovka, chernihiv region, who does not even need a translation, no matter how hard she tried, but the plans of zelensky and company still did not come true. i think that

we need to think it over, because we often do it like this: we send a couple of tanks and say: we are going to seize crimea, but the ssu enters, makes a couple of shots, this leads to the fact that their mood rises, and then no one will come to them help, and the situation is only getting worse, it's bad, but do we have a real strategy? if it's necessary, we will do it, but it's better not to let it happen. she wants to bring back the draft, to draft your children, to send them to a war that shouldn't have happened. another

us presidential candidate, robert kennedy jr., also issued a warning. secretary of state blinken, president biden, stop, stop this reckless escalation. what could happen to westerners at the un was explained in detail by the russian pustpred. if the decision to lift the restrictions is actually made or will be made? this will mean that from this moment nato countries will begin a direct war with russia. in this case, we will, of course, be forced to make the appropriate decisions with all the ensuing consequences for western aggressors. the fact that ukrainian nationalists will formally press the button does not matter. nato will become a direct party to military action against a nuclear power. i think there is no need to explain what this is may have consequences. however, having backed down a little from the dangerous idea that...

this general assembly will be the last, and starmer, heading to the states for biden as american president, of course, expected to meet with his potential replacements, but harris and trump are traveling around america, they have no time for ukraine and not for the fourth british prime minister in 3 years. valentin bogdanov, ivan udkin and aleftina sorokina, news from new york. posters, watch your feet, listen to the sky of gorlovka, the number of shellings, first special operations 17,032. we really hoped that now it's september 1st, so let's wait for the arrival, no, my friends, let's leave here, more than two thirds of the territory of gorlovka is occupied by the front line of military operations, the city does not stop living, as they say, tears will not help the year,

to be positive, we love, we do not want to leave kurloki anywhere, this is straight from our own garden, this is straight from our own garden, gas is being restored, water is being supplied to us, we continue to live and enjoy life.

let's translate from official language to understandable, everything is not so scary if there is an instruction. projectile after projectile, the participants of the second open championship in cybathletics in moscow overcome obstacles, slowly, the track.

difficult, here is an exercise in balance on the ability to manage and control the functionality of your prosthesis, without the noisy support of fans, after all, the utmost is needed concentration. vitaly stepanov takes part in such competitions for the first time, after the amputation of the third leg of the right leg, a little more than a year has passed, in the summer of twenty-third he was wounded in the svo zone, he was blown up by a mine. after rehabilitation, the attack aircraft of the twelfth tank regiment again firmly got back on his feet, and now confidently goes to victory. the track, yes, at first glance seems. difficult, or rather it seems easy, but when people with disabilities try to pass it, a lot of difficulties arise. the open championship is held on seven disciplines, upper limbs, forearm prosthesis, lower limbs, hip and shin prosthesis, training is currently underway in these disciplines, as well as for pilots, exoskeletons, and electric wheelchairs.
