this decision with a favorable vote of 31 members of the north atlantic treaty organization it is possiblethat they preferred to be involved in disputes in the midst of the war in ukraine , unable to reach a consensus on the new secretary general. tanbak, with experience, the world meteorological organization announced that the elina weather phenomenon will probably increase the global temperature this year, but the head of the organization's weather forecasting service area said that the el niño phenomenon is expected to continue throughout this year and violates the rules. socially enjoy in france the minister of interior said that 300 cities in france have witnessed riots in this game, one of the asian cities in turmoil in this country, at the same time with the guitar of a group of french people after the government called to gather in protest against the riots . and we can see the report prepared by al jazeera network. the president and the interior minister of france visited the damage caused to a city in the east of this country . more than 40,000 policemen went to the streets to de

ukraine became a partner of the north atlantic treaty organization. i will remind the black sea of ​​at least three halls of the north atlantic alliance, namely turkey , romania and bulgaria, and the situation or threats announced by russia regarding the commercial vessels of the black sea are directly related to their basis if it is a predator, svizhak arrived just now, literally a couple of minutes ago. so, a russian warship is threatening a civilian vessel in the black sea. traffic to the ports of ukraine is prohibited. we will consider you a participant in the conflict. they have already posted an audio recording of the threat of the occupiers, which occupiers, who came out through the open channel, like a civilian by a court that was passing near one of the seaports of ukraine, that is, they can open fire like that, well, if russia was able to hijack the kakhova hydroelectric power station, if it was able to create only eh crimes, why won't she commit another crime 10 times to the word, the international maritime organization declared the inadmiss

mutual relations of cooperation and security between the russian federation and the north atlantic treaty organizationioned in a conversation with sergey krylov , is said based on the principle of indivisibility of security of all the states of the euro-atlantic community, russia and nato will work together to contribute to the creation in europe of a common and comprehensive security based on adherence to common values, obligations and norms of behavior in the interests of all states. 26 years have passed, the document, by the way, is still formally in force, although it seems to aliens from another dimension a meter of the universe. perhaps it really has been established there, comprehensive security, how to get there, and this was an international review, goodbye. where it's cheaper here in honor of the anniversary, sbermarket has launched a new section where the prices of goods are lower than in the ice cream shop, chocolate from the tape online from 169 rubles. sberbanquet. denisen is cheaper here 15 years. i am developing a small business in alpha bank and i believe that a businessman does not e

valentin , according to the results of the summit in vilnius, the leaders of the north atlantic treaty organization that ukraine must become a member of nato, but already after the end of the war, they say that there is a military conflict and there is nothing you can do about it quite a simple question, if they depend on the war and our membership in nato, then please explain to me, in this case, russia will be interested in the continuation of the war so that we never get there. russia's problem is that it does not have enough resources, technological, economic , political, all others, and if it turns out within the next month or two, the event is very carefully studied and this is a very big chinese factor, what if it turns out that china really waved its hand well, in quotation marks, of course, at the kremlin, at putin 's regime, otherwise the situation will look very problematic for putin's criminal regime . said johnson. he seemed to be saying everything correctly, but he is a politician. he said it detached from the situation and from personal responsibility today, that is why he is a great

very soon , the joint press conference of the secretary general of the north atlantic treaty organizationberg and the president of lithuania should start. before and this will take place for this reason, the press conference will take place the day before the beginning of the alliance summit in the same lithuania in the same vilnius. well, now i still have time to watch before the press conference begins on youtube to see how you are and how active you are on youtube , so watch now on a special channel created specifically for the world at war program 1446 people, i bow to you all. thank you for watching. and i thank you, obviously i cannot deprive those who watch us on the air of the espresso tv channel , at least where we were not turned off the air . thank you all. and 317 people gave their answers to the question about what they would promise to ukraine at the nato summit, we offered you three options for answers and here is joining the alliance, 21% consider long-term support 72% and your option seven percent well , to be honest, if you are interested in knowing if you are interested

satisfied, because we were hoping for at least a formal invitation to join ukraine in the north atlantic treaty organizatione and that we will become the 33rd country after sweden to join nato er, but er , could it give much more to ukraine in vilnius than we expected, that is, could it er, could it make much bigger and that the north atlantic alliance did the situation in russia hold back or not when they realized that uh, this so-called prigozhina coup showed that , in principle, uh, power in russia can very soon pass to some group of people as a result of a military coup there or something else and the west. well, sort of said we will we will communicate only with the legitimate government and we will support it. is this indecisiveness of nato related to the invitation? is this our internal problem? first of all, from what i see now, i am reading from the position of the politicians' statements. analysts, journalists, and the west incorrectly interprets everything that is called the wagner mutiny, and the nature of this phenomenon is interpreted by the west as a democratic west as a democratic world, but

i believe that the north atlantic treaty organization should end this war as soon as possible, this wares almost invisible cracks like on glass, not only here in ukraine, where people may not notice these cracks simply because our economy lives at the expense of the west. creates cracks in the very west and now they are coming and you can already see them and there are already many of them small, they are thin, you like me, some alternative candidate for germany won the election in some federal district where 0.2% of the population lives, these are all little things , but that's it it consists of those small cracks this is the situation when this glass building is bach and suddenly there is nothing and it concerns the united states it concerns the european union it concerns great britain or great britain of course it is such an important and effective ally ukraine, but it is in a deep crisis, well, this is also a consequence of brexit, of course, but one way or another, everything that is happening in the world now also affects its future possibilities. the united states is in a situati

this is how the north atlantic treaty organization is ready to move to the opposite side of the globehe united states with their problems with china, given that it is there that the americans see the main point of application of their power of resources to drag europe there pure victory washington but all the talk about ukrainian membership in it is more harmful than good nato has never accepted a country at war, as this is inevitable, it would mean that the rest of the alliance would also be drawn into the war. i think this is all a huge waste of time and a signal to russia of differences of valence, the vilnius summit is definitely a milestone for the biden administration on the ukrainian track. everything that could, it seems, was done further by money, periodic deliveries of weapons. perhaps even more perfect, for example, operational-tactical systems attack ms and security guarantees for the future are no different. however, from the fact that the kiev regime is now nato's living force. and this is the main resource of any army. there will be no fighting for ukraine the bad news

zelenskyy wants to be the president under which ukraine still will become a member of the north atlantic treaty organization and this is an absolutely normal desire for a politician, and even more so for a president of war and not a president of peace. well, this is understandable, but still , did he not hand over honey in this situation , because he really how you said countries the north atlantic alliance was given a lot of help, and without this help, it is obvious that russian tanks would have been standing on the western borders of ukraine. that's right, well, look, i support the president of ukraine in every possible way in this desire of his, i did not support him in another desire, which was completely opposite before this now i support him and i believe that it will not only be his success, it will be the success of all of us, but in fact globally, uh, this membership is not granted for the duration of the presidency of one or another person, it is for ten years. i hope that this alliance will exist effectively against many future generations, what happened happened is obvious , well, look, the pri

it too close to a military confrontation with russia , the secretary general of the north atlantic treaty organizationduring a joint press conference with president volodymyr zelensky alz-stoptenberg alliance and added that this is why member countries of this military political bloc will continue to help ukraine until its complete victory. and then the quote from the nato secretary general , the biggest risk is if russian president vladimir putin wins the war and with the use of force, it will be a tragedy for ukraine, but us this will make it more vulnerable, that is why we see the motivation of the nato secretary general and the leaders of the nato member countries to help us, as he said, until the complete victory in italy, they believe that in nato , the day before in vilnius, they actually made a decision on the accession of ukraine to this of the military-political bloc, in an interview with the rtl radio station, the head of the italian foreign policy department, antonio taani, said that well, but at the same time, he specified that it is not yet known when this will happen. although he defini

this is how the north atlantic treaty organization is ready to move to the opposite side of the globeroblems with china, given that this is where the americans are they see the main point of application of their strength of resources to drag europe there a clean victory of washington but all the talk about the ukrainian part of shevna is more harmful than good, nato has never accepted a country that is at war, as this would inevitably mean that the rest of the alliance will also be drawn into the war. i think this is all a huge waste of time and a signal to russia of differences of valence, the vilnius summit is definitely a milestone for the biden administration on the ukrainian track. all they could seem to made further money by periodically supplying weapons. perhaps more and more perfect, for example, operational-tactical systems. attacks with and security guarantees for the future are no different. however, from the fact that the kiev regime is now nato, living force. and this is the main resource of any army for ukraine will not continue to fight. the bad news for you is that we

preparing right now, very soon , a joint press conference of the secretary general of the north atlantic treaty organization stoltenberg and the president of lithuania should start will take place for this, the press conference will take place the day before the start of the alliance summit in the same lithuania, in the same vilnius. well, now i still have time before the press conference starts to look on youtube to see how you are and how active you are on youtube, so on is watching now on a special channel created especially for the world at war program 1446 people , i bow to you all thank you for watching , a lot of us are also watching on the general espressov channel, as well as thank you , obviously i cannot deprive those who watch us on the air of espresso tv channel, at least where we are not turned off the marshmallows. thank you to all of you. 317 people gave their answers to the question about what they will promise to ukraine at the nato summit. we offered you three options for answers. and 21% joined the alliance believes that long-term support is 72% and your option is seven percent. well, to

ukraine at the summit on tuesday evening, volodymyr zelenskyi of the north atlantic treaty organization addressed the lithuanians and the whole of nato from the square in the center of vilnius. he emphasized the need to grant ukraine membership for a long time. zelenskyi harshly criticized the indecisiveness of the alliance, which hesitates even to facilitate ukraine's accession to nato. not to mention the very invitation to debate the leaders member states entered the entire first day of the summit standing on the stage together with the president of lithuania gitanas at the siege zelensky thanked him and all lithuanians for supporting ukraine because vilnius so massively chose ukrainian colors these days that many journalists had the impression that they were not in lithuania, but in ukraine . lithuania , together with the baltic countries and poland, expressed support for immediate accession to nato long after the speeches of the presidents from the national anthem of ukraine raised about the bullet-riddled flag that zelenskyi brought to vilnius from bachmut a symbol of the indomitab

, many of its politicians lobbying to join the defense against russia alliance, the north atlantic treaty organization. or what we all know is nato in 2008 president george w bush, that ukraine should be part of nato. and that set off alarm bells in russia big time. so some would say that the seats, if this were, were planted way back then. now nato leaders have met in building is that the way the and ukraine is pushing hard to get some kind of commitment from the alliance. so what are the options and what are the risks? today we're talking to john mearsheimer, one of america's leading political scientists and a professor of international relations at the university of chicago. his latest book is coming out this paul, how states think the rationality of foreign policy, dr. mere cyber? it's great to be with you again, thank you for joining the show. so i'm just interested who one and who last, and what we've seen thus far out of the nato summit as well. it's not that black and white, steve. i mean, obviously, nato is committed at some point in the distant future to bring in ukraine into the alliance. b

well, let me ask you, this. nato is literally the north atlantic treaty organization. then why has it moved up to russia's borders and is planning on expanding? it'd be asia pacific, doesn't that seem a little out of focus to its original intention as well? yeah, yeah. it'd be data oh, has expanded. that's a fair point. but a already the alliance members welcomed in additional countries that you border russia. it. these are countries in europe and nato, despite the name has been a european collective defense for agreement. so adding the additional countries in europe. i don't think that really surprises anyone, even though they're, they're certainly criticisms of that. and their criticisms, not just in europe, the united states as well, but, but when it comes to age, i think we need to be very clear that at this stage they're talking about things like uh, engagement, cooperation, biological exchanges. but to, to be very clear, nobody is talking about nato entering into us and mutual defense agreement with countries in asia. well, there has been the push uh, you know, o

need for clear, as he said, criteria that would allow us to say that we will join the north atlantic treaty organizationworld right now volodymyr zelenskyi is saying how can he set an ultimatum, i will not go to the summit unless there is something specific . but really, maybe we are already a strong nation , so what kind of country is at war, we also have some conditions to set, i do not think that this is an ultimatum of strength. i think that it is rather a cry, that is, a strong nation is a nation that can fight without anyone 's help. ukraine is a weak state without the military aid of the united states and other western countries and without the financial economy of the united states and the union. ukraine has disappeared from the political map of the world in 48 hours, now it's easy to understand, not now. i mean then, when there was this big invasion and now this war of ours depends on the help of the west . can supply military aircraft he is asking for foreign military aircraft he is demanding foreign aircraft our military-industrial complex does not work, even this year nothing significant has

the president heads to vilnius for a tour of the north atlantic treaty organization, also known as nato. this could impact world history itself. with russia's war on ukraine just passing the 500 day mark, and the world still reeling from a short-lived but impactful rebellion against vladimir putin, the stakes are higher than high. on wednesday, president biden will address the summit. and he's expected to urge member nations to continue their support for ukraine. it comes on the heels of the administration's controversial decision to send weapons known as cluster bombs to ukraine. cluster bombs are banned and hundred countries, and work by spreading hundreds of bomb lights across a wide area. what's the controversy? not all of the bombs explode. we this can pose a threat for years afterwards. a recent report showed that civilians make up 97% of casualties from these unexploded bombs in 2021. and a majority of deaths were children. in an interview with cnn, president biden defended his decision. >> the ukrainians are running out of ammunition. it took me awhile to be convinced to do, it

africa and europe, first supreme allied commander of naito, the north american north american atlantic treaty organization, north treaty organization, eisenhower as the first supreme allied commander because president truman and asks him to be that then he's president for two terms. this experienced warrior diplomat and executive eisenhower could take inspiration counsel from the moderate philosophy international affairs embedded in the american founding era itself inspired montesquieu. and if we can that the truman eisenhower strategy was successful and eventually was approach that won the cold war. a strategy to build a defensible international alliance, an international order, one that understands how war and deterrence fit into a larger philosophy of peace, international order, protection of liberty and individual rights, and of. if we can suggest, then we can suggest that there is enduring insight and wisdom in the basic washingtonian grand strategy. it has stood test of time. a strategy derived from our constitutional principles and reflecting the montesquieu philosophy of moderation and a right of

nothing by the north atlantic treaty organization in vilnius , some 200 km away, confirmed that the americans firmly follow this rule in the capital of lithuania, they threatened a lot. the promises destroyed the hopes and plans of those who dared to build them without the consent of washington. and in all this we will talk in detail and next to me in the studio is already nikolai evgenievich buzin doctor of military sciences professor assistant chairman of the house of representatives of the national assembly of the republic of belarus hello greetings in the studio and yevgeny semibratov, political scientist , deputy director of the institute for strategic studies of forecasts from russia, are pleased to welcome you to our studio and, in addition, ukrainian military analyst expert yuriy dudkin is with us today. let us have connections yuri, i welcome you to our studio. hello question traditionally the beginning of our discussion nato has grown stronger from the conflict in ukraine yuri want you to be the first to answer this question. but nato remained as it was, but only without ukraine , b

get to, but the big of the story of the week was in lithuania where members of the north atlantic treaty organization to expand the coalition and discuss their alliance and even expand the scope of nato owe focus perhaps to asia and it's some of the most consequential decisions of his presidency, 16 months into the war in ukraine. russia is actually much weaker, and the nato alliance president putin hoped would crumble now borders the entire baltic sea. even as ukraine runs low on ammunition and awaits nato admission for itself, president biden predicted the alliance would help the invaded nation outlast putin on the battlefield. >> putin's already lost the war. putin has a real problem. how does he move from here? what does he do? >> perhaps the most remarkable part of all of this is perhaps how they've succeeded to help fight a proxy war between ukraine and russia without putting any american groups on the ground or any boots on the ground. just this week u.s. made cluster munitions in many countries and some u.s. lawmakers oppose. five years after president donald trump stood next to vladimir puti

this is how the north atlantic treaty organization is ready to move to the opposite side of the globehare the us in their problems with china, given that this is where the americans see the main point of application of their forces and resources to drag europe there is a clean victory for washington but all the talk about ukrainian membership in nato is more harmful than good, nato has never accepted a country that is at war, as this would inevitably mean that the rest of the alliance would also be drawn into into the war. i think it's all a huge tra. time out of russia's signal of disagreements in the alliance, the vilnius summit is certainly a milestone for the biden administration on the ukrainian track , everything they could seem to have done further money, periodic arms deliveries. perhaps more and more perfect, for example , operational-tactical systems. attacks and with and a guarantee of security for the future, which, however, do not differ from the fact that the kiev regime is now receiving nato's living force. and this is the main resource of any army to fight for ukraine,

the north atlantic treaty organization began after the 2nd world war, the u. k. and the united states where it's finding members, nato has a 31 members in sweden is expected to join, assume all and joined in 1999, 8 years after the fall of the soviet union. other eastern european countries have become members since then. well, joining your slide from warsaw, poland is all been pushed off, is missing your follow with the costume, your philosophy foundation and former director of the nature information office in moscow banker to help you with this out. and i'll just see the thank you very much indeed. i'm one of our previous reports. we had general phillip breed loved the former head of the us, european forces, saying that he felt that this was a, the statement by the way of putting was essentially a distraction he was trying to distract attention away from the what was happening in ukraine. what's your interpretation of all of this? i mean, i, since i agree with general regular, i mean this is, this is kind of, you know, half a if i may so, so i mean, which it doe

power politics paints a clear picture the west wages a good war against russia the north atlantic treaty organizationiet union, destroys the successor army without firing a shell, bullet or rocket or at the cost of the life of one nato soldier, all nato needs to do is send kiev ammunition equipment money, which, as any general knows, is the cheapest way ukrainians give their lives to wage war. they protect their country, but also inadvertently help determine the outcome of the cold war with russia shortening the procedure for ukraine's accession to nato is potentially very dangerous for european security peskov just said we have repeatedly witnessed new waves of nato military infrastructure approaching our borders. this was one of the reasons that led us to the current situation. well, by the beginning of the russian special operation in ukraine, the press secretary said. putin in the kremlin will follow the summit nato and act on an important statement, please, the promise that was made in bucharest in 2008, when ukraine was told that it would enter into this, as we see in 15 years. so were not fulf
