hitler gave the order to defend east prussia to the last soldier and to the last bullet. the city of konigsberg had been fortified for centuries, it is a fortress city, it is a citadel. and all the best generals of the wehrmacht, they are all from prussia. it was a very serious enemy, even in 1945. our soldiers had a very hard time, even from the point of view of preparing their own army, it was already a super task. this is the most large-scale.

so says the lighthouse.

paris has laid claim to the spanish steps in rome, in a document of the french court of auditors it is stated that the architectural monument was built and maintained with french money. our european correspondent will tell you what other arguments the fifth republic put forward and how the italian authorities reacted to this. france is trying to take away from italy the most famous staircase in rome - the spanish steps - with such headlines came out the largest italian newspapers from massazhero to carrier. in italy, an emotional reaction, risking to develop into a diplomatic scandal, was caused by the report of the french audit chamber, which in harsh terms criticized the way the french foundation , the pious institution, manages the property in rome and laretto that has belonged to the fifth republic for centuries. pious institutions have deprived themselves

of the historical heritage for which they are responsible. france institutions act very limited, especially with regard to the maintenance of churches and owns dozens of buildings, including the most recognizable religious. century and today the foundation includes five churches, including the trinito daimonti and saint-louis de france, in which houses three world-famous paintings by caravaggio. the total market value of these assets was estimated at 250 million euros 10 years ago. italy has never tried to challenge france's right to own these buildings, even during the period of the rupture of diplomatic relations between paris and the holy see, as well as during the war years. apparently. hints about the possible seizure

of the staircase, finally filled the cup of patience of the italians. 174 steps connect the trinito deimonti with the spanish square. built with french money the staircase was initiated by france, however , it never belonged to the fifth republic, but france provided for its maintenance and restoration, the report states, in order to ensure safe ascent of tourists to the church. this is an unreasonable waste of funds , the audit chamber insists and demands confirmation of the legal status of the monument. what would france be without italy, they cannot do without our luxury, our works of art, our beauty, but now they are exaggerating, they even want to take away the spanish steps. vice-chairman the lower house of the italian parliament, fabio rampeli, in response proposed sending italian experts to the louvre to assess what exactly rome could demand from paris. in france, such a reaction was not expected, the head of the audit chamber had to clarify that the fifth republic has no claims to another architectural monument in rome. i am

really very surprised at how the meaning of the french audit chamber report is being interpreted and distorted, which speaks, in particular, about pious institutions and their management of religious assets. in italy, i want to assure our italian friends that the report only asks for clarification of the situation with assets, and its clarification will be for the benefit of all. the international scandal added to another disappointment of a religious nature. on friday, pope francis announced that he would not go to paris for the opening of notre dame de paris after its restoration. the priest did not give any reasons, but some media outlets linked this to the nuances of the opening ceremony of the olympics. as for the report, it was clearly intended for internal use.

and we also want to continue this activity in the international arena, because there are many proposals today from countries where avagroup will also be a part. for now, we are planning to invest more than 200 billion rubles today so that these projects

are implemented in all areas. today , at a press conference in moscow, scientists presented the latest archaeological finds and talked about the features of ancient. themselves and russian regions, not only central asia, not only mongolia, but also russian russian regions, in this sense we must admit that russia is a huge country, russia has a eurasian dimension, and an asian dimension as well, there is

a large part of the country that is in asia and there are many peoples there who have historically interacted with us, representatives of the turkic peoples, tatars, bashkirs, kalmyks. and many others, they are heroes, heroes of the soviet union, heroes of the russian federation, in new material in an interesting language it is precisely the advancement of russians of russia to the east, the relationship with the tatars, bashkirs, with the siberian peoples, with far east altai. vos announced the danish vaccine mva. in the first vaccine against monkey pox. so far this is preliminary. data on the effectiveness of the drug was received only from the manufacturers of the european medicines agency. nevertheless, the vaccine has already been approved for use in people over 18 years of age. and what about russian developments and what is the current situation with the spread of monkey pox in the world.

maria valieva will talk about this in the "question of science" section. new cavet or the same mysterious disease x warns about world health organization. the monkeypox virus is rapidly spreading across the planet, a state of emergency of international importance has been declared. the outbreak began back in 2022, in 2 years the disease has affected more than a hundred countries in most of the world. but now a new round of the epidemic has begun, the deadly strain 1b, according to who, has been detected in more than 18,000 people in the democratic republic of the congo.

a coordinated international response is needed to stop these outbreaks and save lives. monkeypox is a stinging virus. in this it is similar to sarskov-2. however, as strange as it may sound, its carriers are not monkeys, but rodents striped and sun squirrels, sleepy gambian rats, and from them the infection is transmitted by the primate. monkey pox. was first identified by bark beetles in a danish laboratory in 1958. in humans, this

disease began to be diagnosed only in the seventies of the last century. most infections occur from infected animals due to the consumption of products contaminated with their saliva and excrement. the incubation period of the disease can be from 5 to 21 days, and the first clinical manifestations are similar to the flu, high temperature, chills, headache and muscle pain. weakness, enlargement. lymph nodes only then the characteristic rash begins on the skin. the causative agents of monkey pox belong to the same family as the natural one. however , the black death, as it was called in europe in the middle ages, was defeated in the 20th century due to mass vaccination. alas, whether the same vaccinations from empox are effective, scientists cannot yet say for sure. in the genome, this is absolutely different gene viruses, one group, the genome can repeat each other by 90%, by 95%. but there is also a difference, also we are all people on planet earth, we have a different set in the genome,

actually, and we are people, in relation to viruses, there is one family, which includes several representatives, they differ in speed, mutation, pathogenicity, it all sounds pretty scary, and how can you not believe that impox can become the second covid for the planet, but in reality is the devil so terrible, the coronavirus took humanity by surprise when it ... appeared, we had neither medicines nor vaccines, but we have known about empox for a long time, and there are drugs for it, including for new strains. for example, the gomolley center has completed the development of a genetically engineered vaccine based on a protective antigen. specialists have isolated proteins to which the human immune system reacts. its effectiveness has been confirmed on animals, and preclinical trials are ahead. and the novosibirsk state research center of virology and biotechnology vector has created a drug. orthopox vag based on a weakened live smallpox virus, which six genes were removed. the vaccine has been modernized,

it is now much purer in quality, and the strain is less reactogenic. there are similar modified vaccines in other countries, they are in europe, in japan, in the united states of america, so these vaccines are much safer than those that were 40 years ago. experts say that in fact, everything necessary is available to prevent a monkeypox pandemic. both drugs and test systems and vaccines, but they do not reach africa in the required quantities. we are seeing a situation where a purely medical factors, things can be used for political purposes. and all this is done, firstly, due to the commitment of the structure, the world health organization. it is part of the un structure, and we understand in whose interests the un and the who in

particular are acting today. monkeypox is another ulcer on the reputation of the world health organization, which is not impeccable. like any un structure, it must be financed mainly by member countries, and the amount of payments depends on the population and the size of the economy. more a few years ago it was like that, but now the situation is different: the share of financing of the organization. state players are reducing, but non-state ones are increasing, so in 2024 the bill and melinda gates foundation became the largest sponsor of vos. the gavi alliance is not far behind, it is a global network working in the interests of vaccine manufacturers. to understand, they were the ones who promoted the astrazeneca coronavirus vaccine to the market, which obviously did not pass all the necessary tests and turned out to be deadly, such are. professionals in their field, what today happening in africa with ospoyobyan, i think, in

many ways has a political political nature, it can be used to isolate the growing continent, the black continent, well imagine if in a few dozen cases this number will be overcome and will reach several hundred thousand and several million, of course, a biased cart on the orders of western elites. to do everything in order to begin to slow it down, in quotes, this pandemic, epidemic on the territory of africa, and this will mean for african countries, the introduction and pushing them to introduce restrictions. to begin, to begin the process of isolation there. russia, for its part, announced the transfer of the latest test systems for detecting diseases to the african republics affected by the epidemic, doctors are conducting training for their colleagues from those countries. but the collective west has other priorities. who calculated that in order to stop the impox epidemic, the organization will need about 88

million dollars from september to february 2025. however, for now... such a task has been set by the president, so that make training accessible in the country , sports infrastructure is being created, how the state together with business solves this problem, marina gromova will tell in the program "there is a solution".

blacksmithing is not an easy job. first of all, physically. after we have heated the metal, we can give the product a shape. during sports, it is also important to warm up well, and if there is a system, then the body is tempered like metal. here you need an anvil, a hammer and fire, and for sports, infrastructure is important. what is there? solutions for creating sports facilities and for the business that helps build them? the myth that an it specialist is a computer, chips and soda, this is not true at all, our it specialists do not always even one sport, very often several, and at the same time. the main value of this work,

the healthy spirit of our residents, i personally understand with age that the most precious thing is health. the worldview of large businessmen completely changes towards a healthy lifestyle, a cultural shift in the minds has occurred, now we just need to support, we we will continue to develop the sports sector as a whole, the president set a specific target, to increase the share of citizens systematically involved in physical education sports to 70% by the end of the decade. you can't say it, but this is a ski slope, although there are more tourists on quad bikes here than skiers, the season will open in mid-october in kirovsk, one of the longest seasons for alpine and cross-country skiing in russia, and not

professionals, can someone try local children at a level of about.

chess sections, judo, a department are working rhythmic gymnastics. the reconstruction of this building was carried out literally 4 years ago, almost 100 million rubles were invested. this is exclusively a question of social responsibility of the enterprise, this. the project is being implemented at the expense of the company. idol is lala kromari. my idol is dina and arina. i like diana chigunikhina. i

like anna popova. i admire maria borisova. and kirovsk is one of the most famous ski resorts in russia. last winter, the bolshoy vudyavor resort was visited by over 45. 21% more than in previous season. how has the city changed in terms of sports infrastructure? city, to leave, now we can confidently say that the city of kirovsk will become one of the brightest spots on the map of russia in terms of cross-country skiing , alpine skiing, winter sports, there are excellent prospects here, you can work here, live, build, play sports, play sports, it is necessary, there is a solution for this here, there is everything for this here. sports facilities are being developed, including within the framework of the federal project "business sprint", a mechanism is used for financing public-private partnership. in twenty-three regions of russia,

58 such projects are being implemented, and in some places have already been implemented, with a total cost of almost 25.5 billion rubles. of these , about 11.5 billion were provided by the federal budget, more than 3 billion by local budgets, and the remaining almost 11 billion are private investments, 13 sports facilities have already opened and five more will be completed this year, a public-private partnership is in operation, there are two paths, the first is that the state compensates for interest rates, now you see, they are high, there is an interest in this business, the second is when the state gives a capital grant, part of the funds, the chkalov arena sports complex, where we

are recording private partnerships, we will approach based on success, including in construction, in general , look at the indicators, if something is not completed, some project is ruined, then you will have to fork out for a new one at your own expense, and those who work well. then money on top, as a child i loved to play football, now my favorite sport is hockey, i practice personally three times a week, and even tested this object on himself, personally was the first to go out on the ice of this ice arena. this year, the company where ivan works turned 30 years old, it is represented on the market in the sphere of housing, office suburban construction, recently began to develop. sports infrastructure, sports facilities appeared for us as an accompanying type of activity, for example, during the construction of a residential complex we built a

world-class volleyball arena, now we are designing two more large facilities, the facilities will be located in the mnevnikovskaya floodplain in moscow, this will be multifunctional sports and training complex for 27,000 km and a tennis center for 11,000. the construction is preceded by analytics of the object. for what kind of sport is not enough in a particular area, this experience has already helped to see trends in the market? we see a trend towards the transition from high -performance sports to sports events for anyone. a lot of professional arenas have been built in the country, we decided to build facilities for mass sports, the end user for an ordinary person who likes to play sports. conditions for classes physical education sports: creates the federal project sport norm of life national project demography. now almost 57% of russians train regularly. by 2030 their share should

grow to 70%, by 2036 - to 76. and so that there are enough sports facilities for everyone throughout the country. infrastructure is being built. during the federal project, more than 450 facilities have been opened. why is it important to develop mass sports. health of the nation investing money in the development of physical activity, sports, in infrastructure, as a tool, this saves money on health care, 1 ruble invested in sports saves in health care, well, about five to 8 rubles, then of course out of millions of those involved , only one becomes a star, this is a historical fact, in any country in the world this is true, but they do it not only to become champions. to win, to improve discipline, to make friends. sports bring a lot of useful habits, loads, and health

first of all. combine physical activity. with virtual this idea was born in our country, so figital appeared and this russia is actively developing a new sport. figital is the addition of physical activity, as you remember, i got up from the computer to the gym, there is basketball, mini-football, push-ups, pull-ups, the fitness program, by the way, we are now adopting a three-year budget, we have planned to build more than 300 phygital centers by the thirtieth year, i would have started construction in khabarovsk as the governor of the khabarovsk territory , we are planning to launch up to 300 centers, a good trainer is a rare commodity, any specialist, doctor, driver, whatever, it is a rare commodity, that's why it needs to be cherished, there is a tendency among young people now: i want to be a manager, then i tell them, but i'm not a manager, a coach is not a manager, and a rector is not a manager, in the russian university of sports

they train in... including qualified coaches and organizers of sports competitions, this year the enrollment, for example, to the department of theory and methodology of basketball turned out to be higher than last year? sport is a model of life, everything that he encounters in life, this is, uh, competition, rivalry, but again, honest competitiveness, sport disciplines this ability to manage yourself, if you do not know how to manage yourself, you will never be able to manage a team, people... especially those who have played together in sports, and when they work together, it seems to me that this is generally, probably, a team that is impossible to defeat in principle, this is the very case when not only business helps develop sports, but sports, business, every fourth employee of ours is involved in sports, either one kind or several at once, and we support this as much as possible, i literally today i looked at the statistics, every year two or three sports grow in

the company, this is... employee requests. this year, employees asked for women's football and badminton. and is supporting sports in business a trend today? i think so. in this it company, corporate sports are represented in twelve disciplines, from hockey to fijitel - this area is not just supported, employees are paid for training with coaches, renting playgrounds, buying equipment, and they also accrue game points for sports activities currency. it can be spent in the store inside the company. you can buy some exclusive merch of ours, you can buy some discounts, certificates to different companies, it is very important that employees in the company, not only work, yes, achieve some heights, there are results, when employees want to play sports, we should support these initiatives as much as possible, from experience, probably in team sports, when i played myself before, after all, i definitely understand that always a team is very important, namely

team spirit, exactly. what unites us, what allows us to achieve goals, this is important not only in sports, but in work, this is a team game in difficult conditions for me, voluminous equipment, you need to hold a stick, watch the puck, still stand on skates, but a coward does not play hockey, and this kind of sport certainly hardens character, also in business you need to hold a punch to hit the goal, watch all the past issues, now you can in our separate telegram channel qr is always on your screens, by the way, about corporate sports, the program is a solution, does not stand aside, my colleague, host maria kudryavtseva plays tennis very well, her program is on next thursday, so masha, i pass it to you, catch it!
