obviously, ugledar was of great importance in the entire system of ukrainian defense, located on a commanding height, it was one of the most fortified cities. well , in addition, it was a key logistics hub for the entire front, what the loss of the city is fraught with, boris ivanin will tell. the loss of the city for the armed forces of ukraine, of course. thank you very much and the guys. the same words are repeated in the headlines of the british guardian. the foreign press recognizes not only the surrender of the city by the kiev regime, but also other long-obvious facts. the overall picture for kiev is gloomy: russian troops are advancing in eastern ukraine at the fastest pace in two years. defense experts believe that ukraine may have to retreat from

other cities under russian pressure, including toretsk and selidovo. in the famous mining town of piano, one of the houses that survived, our soldiers are now performing the russian anthem. and yet , not long ago, ugledar was presented in western propaganda, in ukrainian propaganda, as an edeka fortress, an impregnable fortress, the city's crucial importance for creating a land corridor to crimea, the washington post noted last february, therefore in kiev itself ugledar was called a strategic defense hub of the ukrainian armed forces, a very important point ugledar, which we simply must hold. zelensky bragged about visiting ugledar, the new york times tried to raise the morale of the ukrainian army in march last year, telling then about an epic tank battle and the alleged defeat of russia in it, but the more losses ukraine itself suffered, the more radically the rhetoric changed, turning 180°. for example, i think that... in general, some experts

they claim that the loss of ugledar is a breakthrough of the ukrainian defense, although ugledar is a place of transition, and not some fortified area that would perform a defensive function. at the end of september, forbes magazine openly predicted the retreat of the seventy-second brigade of the ukrainian armed forces when ugledar was surrendered, it simply stopped writing about it, although the brigade's fighters even appealed to zelensky. but the cause of the unprofessional actions of our command. just a month ago , syrsky, as they say, is a psychopath for the destruction, the graveyard of ukrainians, we saw this in bakhmud meat grinder, said: ugledar will put up any attack by russian troops and at any cost, it is not a criminal fortress that cannot be taken either from the flanks or from the center, and so on, but then later the rhetoric began to change, while the kiev regime was retreating in the ssu at the instigation of western curators,

he convinced the ukrainians of the opposite, ugledar is allegedly not an important logistics hub, the american institute for the study of war reported from overseas, the capture of the city, they say, will not radically change the course of the russian offensive in the donbass, and they also talk about pokrovsk, they also talk about zerzhinsk, that is, ukrainian propaganda has moved away from the practice when it declared almost a fortress for each city, and said that this city is the whole of ukraine, its loss will mean something for ukraine, and they... do not want to draw personal attention to their defeats, that is, if this city is important, then there should be a certain information agenda around this city, and if they forgot about it, like those fighters who ended up in this settlement, who for a long time they held the defense there, no one cares anymore, kiev has forgotten not only its soldiers but also its civilians, no one even offered them to evacuate, people say, although they would not have agreed, we don’t want to, this is our home, my mother was buried here before the war. now local residents

are being offered to move from the basements to a safer place, russian soldiers are distributing humanitarian aid to the disadvantaged, primarily food. however, they are trying to treat the liberators themselves. today, the women who met us, they were so happy the last products were cooked there for our fighters pies, well, what they have, they are happy with. now, although ukrainian publications acknowledge, gritting their teeth, the surrender of the coal mine, they are still trying to shift the emphasis, allegedly even its capture will not affect the operational situation at the front, although this completely contradicts reality. for tens of kilometers around with...

there they note the improvement of russian tactics and the superior firepower of our armed forces, while in the ranks of the ukrainian armed forces there is confusion and disarray, emphasizes the german südochzeitung. analysts highlight significant shortcomings of the ukrainian armed forces, as in other important cities of eastern ukraine. lesichansk, severodonetsk, ovdiivka, bakhmut and solidar, exhausted soldiers were not replaced. reinforcements were sent late or not at all, decisions were made late, there was no coordination of planning. trying to put a good face on a frankly bad game, zelensky began to lie even in the presence of the new nato general stack, saying that the ukrainian armed forces retreated from vuhledar, because the quote "lives are more important than buildings", but then why did he give the order to hold these buildings for more than 2 years, regardless of

life. boris ivanin and anna nikolaevich, news. well, now in the usa exactly a month remains until the elections of the president of the united states of america. on november 5, americans will elect their new leader, but for now the fight for voters' votes is in full swing. the most important thing is the alignment in the swing states: arizona, wisconsin, georgia, michigan, nevada, pennsylvania and north carolina. so, during september , donald trump's rating grew in five of them, and kamela haris's only in one. the only the state where both candidates have not changed yet is north carolina. apparently. the main fight will be for it, as for the situation today, harris is still leading in the national context, the democratic candidate has 49% of the votes of prospective voters, and her republican rival has 46. trump, in

general , held on to almost the entire, especially the second half of the election campaign, and in general, he is also holding on to the lead now, in general, if we take the country as a whole, the gap is certainly not very large, he criticizes quite painful. the axios portal notes that she held only one event with the participation of the still current us president within the framework of her company and generally rarely mentions him. in narrow circles, joe biden admits his unpopularity. and even says that he does not want to interfere with

the harris company, and therefore easily refuses to participate in its events. but according to the washington post , the ex-president will be campaigning for the democratic candidate next week. everything changed with the arrival of joe biden and his vice president, harris. does not shine with intelligence and elected harris, vice presidential candidate tim waltz. mali on obvious lies about china. during the debate with his opponent, he told a whole story about how he was wounded on the kolchak fronts and actually held the defense of hong kong in 1989. well, and he said a lot more and talked about it

for several minutes. and now, when the media began to check these facts, waltz backed down and said that he simply misspoke. and let biden think that waltz. the media doubts this outcome. the newspaper politics, for example, writes that the democratic vice presidential candidate's penchant for freely stating the facts of his biography could do much harm to his campaign, and there's also news from tucker carlson about the democrats' dubious activities that don't show them in the best light. the trump campaign donald trump himself accused kamala harris and tim walls of supporting infanticide, that is, supporting laws that allow doctors to terminate late-term pregnancies or not intervene until children born in die as a result of botched abortions. the media and the democratic party fiercely dispute this fact. you are a specialist in medical

ethics, and this is precisely your area of ​​research, is this true? this is absolutely true, and it was known even before this issue took on a political coloring. there is an even funnier story, for example, in the republican party, it seems, for the sake of image, they are ready to do literally anything. for example, congressional candidate derrick anderson, as it turned out. borrows a friend's wife and children, as the new york times writes, anderson, who is running for the house representative of virginia, has repeatedly used photos of women and her daughters in his election materials, but the women and girls are the wife and children of an old friend, moreover, andersen's company website does not mention any family, it clearly states: lives with his dog ranger, a dalmatian. well , let's move on to russia. today , a humanitarian convoy arrived in kursk oblast. the trucks

delivered 14 tons of aid from two large public organizations, the country for children foundation and the food bank rus. the cargo is intended for forced migrants from the kursk borderland. food, toys, various hygiene products - this is exactly what our residents need. it is these funds. that provide us with very significant, let's say, assistance, in terms of the quantity of goods, let's say, in terms of the cost of goods, that is, of course, this is very important, now - in general, it's already autumn, people, of course, need things, warm things, so i very often visit temporary accommodation points, it is with such requests, namely the purchase of warm clothes, warm shoes, that they turn to me citizens with children. deputy prime minister marat khusnulin, together with the prime minister

of tajikistan, held meetings of the intergovernmental commission on economic cooperation in dushanbe. russia and tajikistan remain key trading partners, a number of documents have been signed , including an economic cooperation program. and it is aimed precisely at the implementation of investment and infrastructure projects. tajikistan pays special attention to the latter, as well as to the comprehensive. development of territories, as last time there were agreements were concluded on the construction of a center for gifted children and a new building for the mayakovsky russian drama theater in dushanbe. the construction of such facilities allows for the creation of comfortable living conditions for citizens. russia already has good experience in implementing such projects. we signed a 3-year cooperation program, where we very specifically described what we want to achieve, we have been working together for several years now, we have joint work and this year we have

our twentieth meeting, we are looking, firstly, development of a joint industry, yes, we agreed to create joint technology parks, we are looking at the development of tourism, i can note that our tourist flow from the russian federation has grown by 15%, we agreed to work together to use existing deposits of minerals... agreed on the further development of our relations in the field of education, i can say that we have made a decision and allocated all the money for the construction of a center for gifted children and a theater, russia has accumulated a lot of experience in development of digital technologies, including in urban management, i think that this experience will give an absolute plus for the residents of dushambe and for the residents of the entire... the bbc cancelled an interview with boris johnson,

the journalist's mistake is to blame, she mistakenly sent the prepared questions to the politician himself, however, the former british prime minister found other ways to remind about himself, only in the past 24 hours two materials about him were published in the press. well, in one he criticizes the current prime minister, in the other he shares revelations from his political past. what exactly is he telling, and most importantly, why, he will tell. emil mersayev. bibi eavesdropped in boris's toilet. the tabloid daily mail publishes a loud provocative headline. it is about israeli prime minister netanyahu and his former british colleague. johnson. suddenly it turned out that a listening device was found in one of the bathrooms of the foreign office. the story happened 7 years ago during the visit of the head of the israeli cummin to london. bibi spent some time in the toilet, maybe coincidence, maybe not. however, the security service reported to me that during a routine check for bugs , listening devices were found right in

the toilet. the wet details became known to british journalists after they got acquainted with new excerpts. famous prime minister, he managed to collect them in a book called it unleashed, translated into russian - released. literary critics immediately after the publication released all their anger and bewilderment, calling it the memoirs of a clown. johnson regularly uses a whole cascade words when one would suffice. donald trump, for example, is like an orange -colored derringer, violently supported in the air by an inexhaustible stream of gas from his own ego. however, the words of the whore are only the tip of the iceberg. the guardian journalist exposes every episode of boris johnson's lies in his longread. parties during the coronavirus pandemic still haunt society. johnson was a chronically indecisive prime minister, personal protective equipment was not issued, nor were nursing homes renovated, and his conclusion about not having to apologize so much

for coronavirus parties is amazingly cruel. and it doesn't matter how this story or that incident ended. he goes to kiev, that is, he tries to create a memorial for himself in every possible way on such hyped occasions. and especially now the situation with israel, yes, this is another reason to remind about himself even in this way. and it seems to be working. in social networks , they are wondering what sounds netanyahu could hear all 7 years with the help of a buzzer in the toilet. were they able to decipher the massad

cacophony and extract meaning from it? or maybe london has long been aware and this is a secret communication channel? this is his original skill, which he followed, but starting from his hairstyle, or rather its absence, and ending with all sorts of reasons that then end up in the tabloids, as well as in jokes between heads of state at serious high-level negotiations. this was the case, for example, in 21 during the g20 summit, world leaders could not contain their emotions and laughed at johnson when he went to a group photo shoot, naturally, running late, after today's story in the british public...

the russian prosecutor general's office in its lawsuit against the shell corporation structures is seeking damages caused by the defendants' failure to fulfill their obligations. probably, we are talking about disputes around the sakhalin-2 project, in which shell had a 27.5% share. these claims may stem from the very essence of the production sharing agreement (psa). what is the essence of these agreements? it consists in the fact that initially the host country and foreign investors agree on division of production in certain proportions, but the whole trick is that the state begins to receive its share only after the company has reimbursed all its expenses. naturally, such a situation encourages foreign companies to inflate these very expenses in every possible way. and similar claims

have been made more than once that the company allegedly tried to spend as much as possible within the framework of this project in order to postpone the time when russia would begin to receive its profit, its revenue share from this project. sakhalin-2 is a project to develop two offshore fields in the far east. the infrastructure includes three offshore platforms, an oil export terminal and an lng plant with a design capacity of 9.6 million tons per year. the project operator until 2022 was afshore sakhalin energy. in 2021, the company shipped about 4.2 million tons of oil and 10.4 million tons of liquefied natural gas, then it occupied 2.8% of the world lng market. in february 2022, the company stopped work, in june the russian president signed a decree to change the operator of the sakhalin energy project instead sakhalin energy. the operator's property was transferred to the state. the purchase

of the shares of the companies that left the project became possible only for a russian legal entity. at the same time, foreign co-owners had to confirm their participation in the new legal entity. of these , only shell with a share of 27.5%. it stated that it would not be among the co-owners of the new. operator and recalled its management and technical staff, the company has already completely abandoned its activities in russia, but here it can be emphasized that this was done incorrectly with causing damage to the russian federation, that is, it was done unilaterally, without warning, abruptly, well, that's not how things are done in big business, it should be noted that an exception was made for the shell company, that is, russia in principle is not obliged to replace foreign investors with their up... in those projects that they themselves voluntarily suddenly left, but by decision of the company's president, shell can receive its funds from the sale of its stake in sakhalin-2.

shell's stake was wanted to be bought out by novatek, but in the end it went to gazprom, which now holds 77.5%. by order of the government, a gazprom structure bought out shell's share for 94.8 billion rubles. after the sanctions were imposed, the company withdrew from all of its russian projects, in particular. sold its network of gas stations. in russia, shell had more than 370 gas stations in 28 cities. it is important to note that shell never had its own processing in russia. they always bought gasoline and diesel from the nearest oil refinery, which belonged to russian companies, and were simply the seller, that is, they were the owner of the gas station. therefore, there was no damage to the quality of the fuel or to the staff here. whatever gasoline was sold there, that's what it sells, according to analysts, we are not currently faced with the issue of increasing production, and thanks to cooperation with china and other friendly countries, the technological dependence of the oil industry on western

partners has been significantly reduced, so russian structures are not currently interested in developing any relations with them. from this day on, russian music services now have the ability to label artists with foreign status. details from anastasia ivanova. fugitive artists and foreign agents who criticize our country and its residents in general have played out their political games and will now be labeled not only in the media. russian music services are now also required to put a foreign agent label next to the names of artists who are foreign agents. thus, it will no longer be possible to hide a musician's status from the user, especially since russians themselves complained that there are no labels, they say in the state duma, here is the decision made. the amount of remuneration. of any artist depends on the number of plays, with the appearance of the label, each user will have

the opportunity, and he will make an informed decision whether to support artists and agents, fines are not provided, here rather each user must make a moral choice for himself. music streaming does not work with artists and agents directly from their representatives, the regulator will notify about the labels, therefore if the plaque does not immediately appear, for example, next to by the name of the foreign agent makarevich, then it will definitely be there after some time, and in this case we are talking only about visual content, as for smart speakers, their program does not provide for voicing the status of this or that artist. film agents have long ago marked themselves there, there morgershtern drew 3-sixes for himself somewhere, the problem needs to be approached much more globally and systematically. because this is not a problem even for those who, so to speak, compose all this music and drill it, so to speak, into the vastness of the internet, in the

perception system itself, this requires serious systemic solutions, first of all, of course, in the education and upbringing system and work with pop music, in total there are about twenty artists in the russian register of foreign agents, all of them without markings have already tarnished their reputation among russians, some continue to do so. people. anastasia ivanova, alexander vlasov, anna pogonina. news. well, it's time for the weather. moscow authorities recommended that

motorists switch to... no longer, it's a pity. those who charged in the capital to the rains continue at noon, so preliminary, according to unofficial, but more up-to-date data from private automatic weather stations, in moscow in the last 4 hours in some places from 6 to 11 mm of precipitation has already fallen, that is, a bucket of water per meter of area. it is not surprising that puddles have appeared on the sidewalks and roads. pedestrians have to dodge the splashes raised by cars. the following video is from the kaluga region in the feeder

area. rivers of rainwater run down in the lowlands, here the showers began early in the day. kaluga region, october 4, after sunny days, prolonged rains began, it has not stopped raining since the morning. well, and the residents of the cities of kirovsky and appatity in the murmansk region congratulated each other on the first snow today. they expected that it would not linger on the ground and would quickly melt, but no such luck. it was, children in kirovsk even managed to build snow forts, there was enough material, of course, for snowmen for snowballs. unexpectedly , a video appeared in telegram channels today with the alleged first snow in krasnaya polyana, which surprised everyone greatly, because even at night the thermometers did not fall below +10. it turned out that the snow was artificial after all, snow cannons were at work. winter landscapes were created for the filming of an advertising video. the weather map clearly demonstrates the onset

of autumn, especially. in the russian north, where it rains, sometimes turning into sleet, the entire west of our country was covered with sleet precipitation, where the leading front of rain points has already reached the west of the vologda region, the banks of the moscow river and the upper reaches of the volga, by the end of the day will continue to advance to the east. on saturday, the most difficult weather conditions are expected in the russian north, where there will be sleet rains, in places mixed with wet snow. the front will run through the volgovyad region, the upper volga, the south of central russia, the north of the black earth region, and livni along with it. good weather is expected in the northwest, the middle volga region in the south of our country. tomorrow afternoon in the russian north it will be 6:11, in the middle zone - 11:16, in the black earth region and the middle povolzhye - 16:21, in the south 23-28 warm. then the scandinavian anticyclone will arrange a respite for residents of the middle zone for the weekend. no precipitation is expected. and only at the end of the day in

the formation of a system of international settlements, as well as measures that will help overcome possible difficulties in this area. this was discussed at the operational meeting. so, the president held it in videoconference mode. let's take a look. i propose to talk today about measures to... to form a system of international settlements, you and i know that in modern conditions this is one of such serious tasks, serious, this is one of the serious challenges for us, in general the work is going, it is going well, but it is better to talk about the difficulties, in a timely manner and outline the necessary actions to overcome these

difficulties that they are trying to create for us.
