this is russia 24 for the news review, we'll come back a little later, right now a new issue of besagon. and nikita mikhalkov's author's view on events in the country and the world. so our holidays are over, dear friends, and we are together again, but i know that during all this time, we did not part with you, because on weekends you had. the opportunity

to watch past issues of our program. defense minister andrei removich belousov once said: "you can make mistakes, you can't lie." so we called our program, today's, slightly paraphrasing it will be called: "you can't lie, but what can you". i think you'll understand why it's called that. but first i'd like to thank you for... your attention to our previous program, by the way, for those who haven't seen it, i'd like to remind you, it was called "what does a person begin with?", you know, the channel's management warned us, and we also doubted, we were told that the topic of abortions is not very popular, and in general we can't count on a large number of viewers, i must tell you that these warnings turned out to be... unexpectedly for

for us and for the channel, i think, also in vain, because together with channel russia-24, with channel russia 1, with all our platforms vkontakte, zen and so on and so forth, this program was watched by more than 12 million people, therefore this topic is relevant and the attitude towards it is very, very attentive, i want to thank you for this attention. first of all, starting our program, i would like, of course, to express enormous support and condolences to all residents of our southern borderland, and of course, especially residents of the kursk region, who on august 6 of this year were subjected to a completely monstrous terrorist attack, absolutely brutalized ugronazis, who crossed over.

kursk region, good afternoon, good afternoon, who shot civilians, sparing neither children, nor old people, nor women, robbed houses, shops, burned and so on and so forth, and these are not empty words, here are the documents, the evidence that radion valerievich miroshnik provided us, he is the ambassador at large of the russian foreign ministry for war crimes. kiev regime, well, look, what happened in the last few days, considering the proximity of the line of combat contact, many houses burned down, well, at the moment in girya, probably houses, houses eight, probably, approximately, because the first days they shot at houses from the sconces, in kamyshnaya there of course it is more serious, there houses, probably 20 have already been destroyed by birds, these are fired at there with mortars, they fired at there with cannons, yeah. did you see? yes, i personally saw it,

i look, that means, this armored personnel carrier moves a little to the side, a tank shoots at the first car, in in general, half of my life was cut short, what happened to the car that shot, yeah, exploded, took off, in short, caught fire, many cars were seen injured, no, many, very many. there were already burnt ones, which you know, even like they were spun up, some were, just finishing burning, what kind of highway is this, this is the sudzhakus highway, suddenly with and i see a man in camouflage uniform, he doesn’t have any of these regalia, he’s without a mask, he’s very lightly dressed, but he has a machine gun, and he hops... at

the front car, which was going in front of us, in i drove one way, then in the opposite direction, i fired, i fired, and in... a turn, a turn, that is , an ordinary civilian car was driving, and he was shooting like he was having fun, like at a shooting range, i see a uaz, when i came closer to it, i didn’t see a head, i looked at the uaz, there were two lumpy corpses sitting there, i took two steps, i don’t know why, i looked to the other side of the uaz, i saw a person lying on, that is, i saw on the right side... arms, legs, and the water was flying , there was a torso without arms, without legs and without a head, another five steps, a civilian car was smashed, a red one, i think you understand that it is impossible to forgive this, but it is not only

this that is scary, something else is scary, it took the armed forces of ukraine no more than a day to cross the border and overcome... all the so-called fortifications that were supposed to be on the border between russia and ukraine. they were built for 2.5 years, they spent, as they say, about 15 million rubles. that is, in the kursk region since 2022 a full-fledged system of defensive fortifications was built with trenches, pillboxes, fortified.

where to call, what to have with you, i will personally tell you, to the khokhlyatsky roosters, we are not surrendering, we will build such fortifications here that not a single one of your khokhlyatsky creatures will be able to cross them, you know, so, the work was supposed to be completed in 2023, then their completion was postponed to 2024, the budget was spent, but...

and much earlier, here is a note from february 2023 , we read it as an employee of one of the teams participating in the construction of border defensive structures in the kursk region, after their appeal, the governor was paid his salary debts. let's move on, may 2023, these are journalists' investigations into the disappearance of funds that were allocated for... fortifications: we read: entrepreneurs handed over to the editorial office copies of documents confirming the scheme for making money by a certain circle of people. the contract is received by a company that has friendly relations with the top officials of the region, then

subcontractors are recruited, they carry out all the work specified in the contract, when it comes to settlements with those very subcontractors, it begins. which, of course, it would be nice to get an answer, well and really it is no longer news to us, all this absolutely incredible lie that is pouring out of the so-called civilized world, this is duplicity, double

standards, lies, this is a shameful provocation with the minsk agreements, this is the mysterious self-destruction of nord stream 2, this is malaysian shot down allegedly by us. and so on and so forth, we are used to it, it is so, but should this relieve us of responsibility for what is happening with us. there is inside, to me it seems, on the contrary, that this should concentrate us on what is happening inside, it cannot relax us, blaming everything on the anglo-saxon world on the insane government of ukraine, but this worries not only us, it worries people who are professionally engaged in both analysis and politics, for example, what the writer, political scientist, journalist, vladislav vladislavovich shureigen says, listen, when you call the svo, and this is

war, then we come to the situation that is happening today, when the enemy is on our territory, the enemy is on our territory for 2 weeks, and we heard a promise to deal with them in 3 days, we still haven't heard who is to blame for this happening, well, really, any military operation, especially an unsuccessful one, is followed by what is called a debriefing, well, conclusions. which is echoed by professor, political scientist, dmitry gennadyevich evstafiev. the enemy is fighting for

life and death, for our death. he is fighting for his survival, and too many of us, both in the political elite and around it, proceed from the fact that the main task is to return to 21 february, i made a mistake again.

look what we talked about in 2022 in one of our issues. do you remember? i want to read you an excerpt from a document. this document is more than 100 years old. it was written in 1906 by mikhail osipovich menshikov, a russian publicist, philosopher, and public figure. remember the enormous state case during the war with japan, 1904-1905. we had sufficient resources for war, education, in general, we are not inferior to japan, we have six or

seven military academies alone, and military experience, it seems, was sufficient, and military eloquence, to spare, lacked honesty, only honesty, i assure you, honesty alone, lacked moral standards, lacked the courage to fulfill one's duty before the war. and during the war the government was deceived by its closest agents and, as if in oblivion, itself went to deception. are we ready for war? - asked the country, noticing a cloud creeping from the east. ready? - answered. the minister of war, sent to port arthur to check whether the fortress was really ready, drank champagne in the city square in honor of the genius? those places of admiral alexeyev, who created an invincible fruit of russia, when the japanese

attacked port arthur, it turned out that this stronghold could be taken with bare hands. the top brass asked: do we have a fleet? they answered, of course, we do. on paper, our fleet was superior to the japanese. this was written more than 100 years ago, when we shamefully. lost the war to japan, but don't we hear echoes of that time today, how many common. but you must agree, all this is connected with each other, this is theft in the construction of fortifications, and doesn't this remind us of what happened during the construction of the treatment facilities on the wave, we talked about this, remember, what the inspectors saw with their own eyes is shocking, this is what

the treatment facilities built according to the federal project and never started working in the new non-cause of the yaroslavl region look like, next to a pipe from which a waterfall of sewage flows directly onto the ground... the smell is appropriate, and the treatment facilities, which were built for 142 million rubles, which will never work, because it was done incorrectly, here everything is running, running, running and then the volga ic goes away, many heads of regions say one memorized phrase: the state examination missed everything, the ministry of construction approved everything, the money received, it's like... you can call it corruption, negligence, and the money was spent at 99.85%. how do you like the level of bureaucratic honesty, less than 5%. they will tell me, russia has always been robbed, yes, that's right, i agree, that's true, but the worst thing is different, the

worst thing is that from this irresponsibility, from this embezzlement, for example, in the same kursk region. no, along with military events and pressure , for the first time, a huge information pressure was used, how many lies rained down on us from abroad, how many lies were told about us from there, but the problem is that we also lied about ourselves here, and we succumbed to

it here, and it is not for nothing that this absolutely fantastic event, when the russian intelligentsia... sent congratulatory telegrams to the japanese emperor mikado, congratulating him on his victory over the russian fleet, as a result, we received this first defeat not only because of the inability to tell the truth, but also on the information front, on the front that is also the front line today, here we will return to the title of our program: you can’t lie, but what can you, more precisely? that you need to, you need to tell the truth, but the thing is that sometimes it is very difficult to tell the truth, sometimes it is not only difficult to tell the truth, but also to listen to it, it is difficult, sometimes unbearable, and this happens because people do not want to understand that this is a lie in the moment today,

calming and not disturbing comfort, over time it turns into that. truth that no lie will change it, and you will become a victim of the truth that you have hidden before, and the most important thing is that this lie, it has neither definite boundaries nor definite dimensions, it is like air, like the atmosphere, it is everywhere, it begins in childhood, look, an absolutely harmless episode, look... putin visits ova, comes to school, asks a simple question to a girl. well, far enough. and look how behind the president's back, the school principal with the providential surname popugalov, gives signs to the girl what to say and what not to say, that

did not save him from the fact that the girl simply honestly told the truth, because she does not yet know that it is necessary to lie. and other people, let's say, i personally respect that our state, the leadership, it declares the absence of the need for a general.

so that it concerns only them and no one else, remember the words of one of the characters in our besagon, when he was asked what he thought about the svo, he answered, it is your svo, i do not have it. yes, tell me, and what is your attitude to the special military operation? i do not know, about what are you talking about, how do you not know, right now we have it, you have it, i have no idea, well tell me, well, how, well, how can it be? it could be that somewhere there were shells exploding, mines, houses burning, civilians dying and so on and so forth, here this happened, for example,

this is a yaroslavl businessman, his name is elman azizov, in honor of his birthday he dressed up as a pharaoh and harnessed the employees of the wheelwrights who drove him, how can this be? this is the director of the motor depot of the government of the tambov region, andrei silionov, he celebrated his fiftieth birthday like this one year, by the way, this performance, they say, cost him his job, well, okay, you tell me, this is an isolated case, you never know what kind of people there are, so to speak, with what kind of shifts, but i'm talking about something else, i understand, you can't plunge people, so to speak, into darkness, i understand, theaters, cinema must work, i understand, right, but there is some measure

to this, there is some tact, if you look at the get-togethers, at the parties, show business, at everything that happens on the stage, i'm talking about the general atmosphere of some kind of hysterical desire to show carefree. happiness and a feeling of complete peace and satisfaction, i absolutely do not want to belittle the importance of volunteers, people who collect money, who send equipment there, drones and so on and so forth, but the general atmosphere that exists, we do not have the feeling of a feast during the plague, and deliberately so, to show...

when when it is necessary to somehow understand a little bit what is happening, well, maybe it is clear that these are funds from the country's budget, from city budgets, well, let's

give these funds there to the front, and really remember, during the great patriotic war, fireworks were a sign of glory, not entertainment, indeed, the lack of internal mobilization, mobilization. consciousness, it deprives of motivation, this feeling that it is somewhere far away, does not concern us, but it is not for nothing that, for example, in chelyabinsk on august 30 they were going to hold some incredible show using 700 drones and a spherical color fountain, and this would have happened if those very people who have this mobilization of consciousness, who understand what is happening, did not they opposed it, it was cancelled, but the point is not that it was cancelled, but that it was conceived, that is, no one had the idea that 700 drones

that would rise into the world... the chelyabinsk sky, they could be useful, of great benefit at the front, they will tell me: these are different drones, at the front these drones are combat drones, and here there were others and so on, this does not have any meaning, because the word drone in the minds of today's russian citizens is already associated with war, our drone, someone else's drone, isn't that so, but there is another and... an even more incredible story in its cynicism, listen, the deputy of the sverdlovsk legislative assembly alexey karabeynikov announces on social networks that he signed a contract with the ministry of defense and went to the svo zone, here are his combat photos, and this commands respect, of course, a person from the legislative assembly takes himself and goes to fight, absolutely worthy. but what

does it turn out? he is not fighting anywhere, he has, so to speak, free access to the front. do you know why? the publication ian writes that his place of service deputy will be in the federal state institution sixty-sixth financial and economic service of the ministry of defense of the russian federation. in essence, this is a centralized accounting department. the institution is registered in yekaterinburg. as it turned out, the goal of public activity. tata is to obtain the status of a participant in the svo, he needs this status in order to receive a 25% discount on participation in the primary ser and then get into the state duma in this way, and the most incredible thing is that nothing is scary, nothing is scary, and there are no thoughts that in wartime -

it's a crime because... it's one thing when you say, i'm going to work in the ministry of defense in the accounting department, well, what 's wrong with that, nothing wrong, and another thing is when you take a picture with a machine gun and say that you're going to fight, in fact you're sitting in the accounting department, fine, but seriously, if there is no internal mobilization, general mobilization cannot be avoided, another thing, here we are talking about the exploits of our guys, who with... nikita nosov with an amputated arm returns home to his homeland on far east, some bandits from an ethnic group extort money from him, so much so that they force him...

to commit suicide, because he sees no other way out, because when he brings a statement to the police, before his eyes this statement is torn into small pieces by the police, the captain, a guy from the police department in the ministry of internal affairs, said that as soon as you leave here, you will not have our protection, we do not have witness protection, i took the statement, he tore it up in front of me, that's all.

and the higher authorities, so that they would assist after my death, so that the culprits are put in jail, i'm not the only victim and so on, i'm the only one who chose this method, so, i bought a bottle of whiskey, juice and pills, when you'll be watching, i'll most likely have already lost consciousness. so, don't be sad, everyone, i'm in touch, victory will be ours, brother soldiers, win. nikita nosov really tried to commit suicide, thank god, he survived, they revived him. thank god, the chairman of the investigative committee, alexander bastryki, intervened in this case , the culprits were caught, let's say, they'll put them in jail prison and what.
