the main slogans of the action are support for boris yeltsin. trouble with such rallies is that at them the extremism of a handful quickly develops into the extremism of the crowd. and this is very disturbing, especially when there is a choir of many thousands in a monolithic boulder. suddenly you catch timid so far, but quite distinct headlines, shoot, hang up, nothing in the name of any such ideals and values, well, on june 12, 1991, the country chose its president boris nikolayevich yeltsin , 57.3% voted for yeltsin voters 45.5 million people. this is almost half of the adult population of russia, we have now developed such a number of violent opponents of the center. but chose. you are yeltsin, who is then uncle vasya's neighbor and where are the future opponents of the yeltsin center, then there were from august 19 to 22, 1991 , up to 200,000 opponents of the gkchp gathered daily in different places in moscow. there were such unsuccessful opponents of perestroika who staged an unsuccessful coup, in addition , rallies of yeltsin's categorica

she quickly rallied the ranks and cart. to compensate for the temporary loss of the urals boris yeltsinn into the system of power in moscow like a pinch of fermentation yeast into the brew of a giant metropolitan cauldron. everything began to boil, began to boil, began to burst bubbles. yeltsin was a radical who sought flattery in everything personally and immediately changed everything, for example, he could arrive early in the morning at a working hostel in the suburbs, take a bus and go with three transfers to the factory checkpoint looked at people. listened to the conversation he registered for service in the outpatient clinic areas. periodically, yeltsin stood in line at the shops. where, according to his information , a decent product was delivered when they saw it. again half-naked counters the owner of the city arranged a noisy analysis. where to do what? he hid behind-the-scenes manipulations of the trading mafia removed the perpetrators from work, gave the consequences and the court. it was all too late, probably, yeltsin himself brought forums to the moscow parties, as well

boris yeltsin, february and march 1991 were marked by the most acute political struggle in connectionh the referendum with gorbachev and his team, they mobilized everything that was still alive and the work of a capable allied chi company. at that time, it decreased from 19 million to 16 million people and continued to fall in all regions and at all levels, the cpsu organizations created headquarters, took control of the media and the printing house in russia, the communist party campaigned for the preservation of the union and did not stand aside against the introduction of the presidency the all-powerful kgb on february 7 , 1991. the head of the secret service. vladimir kryuchkov sent gorbachev a spatial alarmist memorandum on the political situation in the country. in the document, the events in the union and in russia were portrayed as sinister plots to seize power and change the socio-political system, the head of the kgb saw a particular threat to the regime in the creeping spread of market relations in the shadow business and the emergence of new bourgeois kryuchkov declared th

this iconic image of soon-to-be boris yeltsin was taken of him talking to crowds in moscow atop a tank. this signaled the end of the soviet union, which dissolved later this year. our next guest was the russian foreign minister in this time and continued in on this role under boris yeltsin. joining me now is andre kosnarev. thank you for joining me. i want to start with the idea of what your read is on right now of why this fight spilled over into the public and took such a dramatic turn over the weekend. >> there is very little comparison, actually, with 1991. because that was about political future. political choice of russia. and the people went out -- we were in the so-called white house. we were surroundeddy tanks, because we were also surrounded by crowd of people, who wanted political choice. and the political change for democracy, for future, for better relationship with the west and so on. this time, it's totally devoid of any political agenda. it's fighting for prey, for easy prey. that's one thing we learned. and there is a kind of male there, but there are others who want a

and whether you can land go back before the plane crashed at the conference and the rebellious boris yeltsinn, confirming that he had rebuilt key there are not only conservative, but also radical alternatives. so in 1988 , gorbachev's team, faced with a crisis of insufficiently decisive reformism , managed to prevail in the inner-party struggle. all their suggestions. cpsu approved although under the growing robot in the ussr they were first proclaimed. previously unprecedented goals in the creation of a law-based state and civil society, the election and regular replacement of government bodies, a reform of the constitutional order was outlined, which in fact was supposed to lead to the transfer of all power in the country from the communist party to elected councils, thereby perestroika began to turn into a revolution. we'll take care of this. it will be the honest detective. yes, dude, one of us is absolutely not lucky maybe not ours this is ours bullfinch carrots avenged russia the best historical serials without registration. we will tell you what this day is remembered for in history r

an officer, went through a test of power and glory when he was appointed assistant to president boris yeltsin and was there during a historic moment and his performances from an armored vehicle. then all the doors to politics or business were open before the hero colonel, but he came to god and this path is no longer curtailed; his appearance in the zone of our special military operation was a matter of time. after all, every meeting with him, both for the fighters and for me personally, is always another revelation for the soul. i hope that our conversation today will also be like this - life and destiny. it’s not just possible for you. i’ll show you a little and now i’ll show you the star of the soviet union. why did you receive this highest award in our country? this is somewhat my reward. how many guides. it just so happened that here she uh got me for what? well, we write, as usual, overseas heroism. well, not me, not my friends, none of us consider ourselves some kind of heroes, but we just did our job, or rather, serving our homeland to defend our enemies. there in afghanistan they ann

strategists and owners, much lower ratings were put on their feet and brought to power - this is our boris yeltsin chain, the liberal progressive globalists did not have a deviation from this chain, but they chose the bidens and put him there because he is not the guy who commands and now we're a laughingstock and at home from abroad. this is a tragedy. standing patriots but it's about the presidential candidate and those behind him. here , even the initially irreconcilable republican majority leader kevin mccarthy , who promised to arrange a default, if only to reduce the bloated budget makes concessions and agrees with the president's demand to raise the ceiling with small agreements, who won from it the democrats or the republicans. it's a bipartisan deal, a bipartisan deal - that means beneficial not so much to both parties. how many companies behind them, the structures of specific people with a lot of money , the threat to reduce funding for ukraine is part of the bargaining for the democrats to cut conditional social programs, which otherwise the republicans could not achieve many want more

in december in the same 99th year, two months after the shooting of the parliament in armenia, boris yeltsinin russia, how uh, two months later, uh, during the general rehearsal , he obviously came to power eh in armenia so we had the chekistov for 20 years and now we have to go to you for it and tell me anyway karabakh or really, that's really what can be provided and the presence of the army in nagorno-karabakh in the foreseeable future, except for russian peacekeepers, this is what some mechanism can ensure the normal life of azerbaijanis and armenians in one state, if not long ago people with armenian surnames, even garages of other countries, were not allowed on the airlines of azerbaijan. you know this hatred between two peoples , which has not gone anywhere, you know it very well , that's it , that's it. except for russian peacekeepers, but not in the sense of being russian peacekeepers, but only the absence of so-called russian peacekeepers in some russian peacekeepers , in fact, these are occupation troops, and they are now protecting the interests of the empire, which at this momen

abramovich was a man who stood at the origins of putin's regime, the man was a cossack of the family of boris yeltsinthis type of people, the concept of morality does not exist. peaceful e-e in last year, was it another oligarch? no, it’s the same abramovich, when should i show what? i don’t need to impose such normal sanctions against me. i tried to take a lot of steps so as not to get a selfie. he has already received the sanction, but uh, no, he doesn’t want to increase his love in russia, but of course, if he uses these funds, they will go to ukraine, to ukrainians or ukrainian migrants , there is an uh, a foreigner, there are options, but we talked about one ukrainian, dmytro firtash ukrainians are also different. unfortunately, they happen. therefore, it is also how abramovich will decide the issue. well, i think that he will personally decide on the fact that if the money went only to ukraine, then to russia, it would cause a very negative reaction , including from putin. i think that now abramovich's rear is connected with this, because he does not want to make life more difficult for himself

the person stood at the origins of putin's regime, the person was a cossack , er, the family of boris yeltsin and e for of this type the concept of morality does not exist among people. and this is it, and he participated in peace talks last year, or was it another oligarch. no, this is the same abramovych. when should we show that there is no such normal sanctions against me? he tried to take a lot of steps so as not to get a selfie. but it’s all the same to get sanctions and now he’s giving back because actually he already received the sanction and he doesn’t want love in russia, he doesn’t want to increase it, but of course if he uses these funds to go to ukraine ukrainians or ukrainian migrants there is an er, there are options, and then they talked about one ukrainian, dmytro firtash, ukrainians are also different. unfortunately, they are different. therefore , it is also how abramovich will decide the issue. well , i think that he will personally decide whether the money went only to ukraine this caused a very negative reaction in russia, including from putin, and i think that now abram

and the very last hours of 1999 is when boris yeltsin handed power to putin. i think preaching does look weak right now. the russian public would have seen him looking week. they would have seen him making that address, saying that there was a mutant us attack on him, and he was being stabbed in the back. and yes, he's just done a deal with about responsible for staffing him in the back. that certainly will the week. and i think the other thing that the russian public will see potentially is the comments progression is made about the war. and why was this? will need it in the 1st place. so question marks, i think of being put in the minds of the russian people about the power strength of the russian army. protecting, by the way of putting the power and strength of vladimir putin on question marks about why russia was in ukraine anyway. okay, i prologic edits of james bay's there at the united nations are also taking a closer look at the implications of the countries outside of the region, particularly in africa. because this is what the wagner group has been a

uh, boris yeltsin came out very strong for, for the action that he did at that time. so i see some better that was there. but uh, of course, in 1993 there was no war being being waged. uh as, as it is, uh, as it is today with the, with the military operation that's taking place in another ukraine. and i was just sony on a. yep. who said, oh, so one's a long so that was the patriotism of the russian people which long as they contributed to successfully going through involved at all times. why do you think they will position within the country? didn't immediately capitalize on the chaos and getting involved as well. i think that so there, there is a fear in russia all going through times of troubles. i think there is a a real affair of civil war in russia of cruise. i mean rosters. that's very bad experience with cruise. i mean obviously we, we have these are the 2 crews of, uh, 1917. and then my colleague pointed out of 1993, which ended in the blog above. 7 and it was, it was a terrible time of the ninety's and of the rug with the russian. people don't want to go thro

the man was the treasurer of boris yeltsin's family and e.. it was another oligarch no, this is the same abramovich. when should we show that there is no such normal sanctions against me ? i tried to take a lot of steps so as not to get a selfie. but i still received sanctions and now he is giving back because he actually already received the sanction. eh, no, love in russia does not want to increase to itself, but it is clear that if he uses these funds to go to ukraine, ukrainians or ukrainian migrants there are refugees, there are options, but we talked about one ukrainian, dmytro firtash, ukrainians are also different. unfortunately, that's why also like it will be in abramovich solve the issue well, i think that he will personally decide on the fact that if the money went only to ukraine, then to russia, this caused a very negative reaction , including from putin, and i think that now abramovich's backlash is connected with this, because he does not want to make life more difficult for ourselves in russia, well, luckily for us, the briti

ideologue of the shock therapy policy sachs was the economic adviser to mikhail gorbachev and later to boris yeltsin this is the slowest stabilization you could experience. this is much slower than what more czech republic estonia slovenia or any other country with high inflation went through. i am convinced that washington's policy has led to the emergence of the ukrainian conflict. you were working on russia's transition to a market economy. what was your job? it all started 34 years ago. i was an adviser to the government of poland and then, when we already had a whole network installed. i began to interact on the economy with president gorbachev. he asked me for some advice. i was happy to act as an adviser in the autumn of 1991 . i have already joined president yeltsin's team. we worked hard. i tried to help myself. what does it mean to help some kind of financial health in russia, the difficult days of 902 and 93, but unfortunately, the us government is only effective. in this, i think that if you look at the history of this issue, it becomes clear that the hardliners of the us government , th

it is the first victim of the russian democracy under boris yeltsin. we could criticize presidents. as the main obstacle on the ideal the first attack on the ground and many others that speech institutionally the russian democracy was feeble. that's why whenn i saw the risei wanted to share my experience. for me it was the other side of the iron curtain and i felt that was a time for me and my fellow dissidents to help america by sharing our experience. to prevent people from expressing themselves. itss cannot be a success without recognizing. you just gave a graduation address where you said how wonderful to be in a land where dissent is possible. tell us about the context of that and the story of your remarkable arrest and fighting back in zimbabwe and what it can teach. >> it's a huge honor to be here and speak about this very important aspect of the u.s. constitution but with the citizens of the countries are longing for. especially the status quo set by the government of the day. it collapses economically and socially. in 2008 the economy crashed so badly that we ended up with

at no point since putin was named acting president by boris yeltsin in 1999.ugh he had a falling out with the putin government as recently as may, yevgeny prigozhin said, quote, i love the motherland. i listen to putin. here's what cnn fareed zakaria told jim sciutto on a potential fallout from the insurrection. >> to me, jim, the more important sign here was prigozhin's own remarks when he basically decided to frontally attack the rational for invading ukraine. this is the most interesting thing that's happened in some ways in the last 48 hours. prigozhin, who has been fighting the ukrainians and has been losing his troops to them says the whole war was started on false pretexts. the ukrainians did not provoke us. we decided to do it because we wanted to control them because we -- a whole bunch of oligarchs who had been making money in the donbas. he provides a kind of alternative narrative that is not one that looks good for putin. it completely contradicts putin's own narrative about ukraine being taken over by neo-nazis. and i wonder whether that will turn

we spoke about this in the last hour, in the early 90s, when there were coups against boris yeltsin, or rafael gorbachev, the perpetrators of those who served long prison sentences. none of these people that were involved in this potential coup, this potential civil war, only 200 miles from the russian capital, are facing any punishment. not at this point, anyways. that makes putin look weak. he had to do a u-turn for all the statements he made in the morning by the afternoon, saying that, actually, prigozhin can go scot-free, despite the biggest challenge to his leadership in over two decades. the next days, hours, weeks, they're still going to be critical. they're critical to see what's prigozhin's next move, is how loyal the wagner group will be, he and putin standing within his own circles in moscow. what's going to do about his defense secretary that prigozhin have projected so much of his air towards. quite frankly, chris, a lot of those criticisms that prigozhin had made is something that resonates with the russian people, and how is that going to filter in the next weeks and

thing thing in 1993 with boris yeltsin. but that is not the case today with putin. and i think that projects an image of a man who seems weakened by this whole episode. there are a lot more questions than answers about what will happen going forward, primarily, what happens to prigozhin, what happens to the wagner group but i've been very instrumental in their fight for the russians against ukraine, much of the advances russia as made are to the wagner group, they've been taken off of the battlefield, are there fighters going to join the russian army? is prigozhin going to remain quiet in belarus? how long will they stay there for? we know that vladimir putin is a vengeful man. he takes betrayal very seriously. if you really let prigozhin go, possibly to be a thorn in his side moving forward, it is a very, very complex situation in moscow. i think in the coming hours, days, weeks, they will be critical for vladimir putin, if he has not cleared any of this by any stretch of the imagination. it has also raised a lot of questions amongst ordinary russians, a lot of the

number one, vladimir putin came to power in 2000 because his predecessor, boris yeltsin, failed to win the chechnyan war. putin comes in and with brutal tactics against civilians, won the chechnyan war and became the russian president. so putin's got to have that in his mind saying, gee is, i'm not going to be replaced by a peacenik, i'm going to be replaced by someone even tougher, so maybe i should get tougher. and as bad as he is, the devil you know is better than the devil you don't know. if there's a civil war, nuclear weapons flying around, when who knows where this could lead. rachel: you know, back in the iraq and afghanistan war i was one of those people that just sort of believed everything that came out of my government, and now i don't believe a lot of it. and i'm always questioning things. and i asked our haas are guest on this topic, rebekah koffler, if she thought it was possible that we could be behind this attempted coup with the wagner group and she said it's definitely one of the possibilities. or nato. >> yeah, i think she's right that the united states government w

in 1999, then president boris yeltsin appointed him prime minister. even president george bush was impressed though it didn't last. >> i found him to be very straightforward and trustworthy. >> reporter: putin was reelected in 2004. by 2008, he had reached the term limit under the russian constitution, so he got creative and switched jobs with then dmitry medvedev. so medvedev was elected president and named putin as prime minister. a move that raised questions about how much power medvedev really had. in office medvedev changed the constitution extending presidential terms from four years to six years. before putin was reelected president again in 2012. [ speaking non-english ] ♪ putin has ruled russia for more than two decades and his power is undeniable. he escalated the war in chechnya, invaded ukraine and his government allegedly interfered in the 2016 presidential election though he denied that. he also allegedly had a hand of disposing of critics like a former spy who died weeks after drinking a poisoned laced tea. the kremlin denied his involv

the rise of russian democracy, the short run of russian democracy in the 1990's under boris yeltsin was due to the fact that we had free speech. we could criticize presidents. we had maybe not fair, but free elections. and vladimir putin taking over immediately recognized free speech as the main obstacle on his grand ideal for building russia. his first attack, talk about the first attack on the ground was the chechen war and many crimes committed by the k.g.b., but institutionally, in a couple of years he dismantled the free media entities that had been built in russia and flourished in the 1990's. dpen, russian democracy was feeble. it was weak and nascent. but it did exist because we had free speech. that's why went i saw the rise of donald trump in this country, i immediately recognized a pattern and i wanted to share my experience, sharing my experience from russia here in america. for many of us who were born and raised on the other side of the iron curtain, we looked at america as hope. that was a time for me and my fellow dissidents to help america by sharing our experience. tha

in 1991, he became the first foreign minister of the russian federation under boris yeltsin.sian legislature lower house, the duma, until the year 2000. at the beginning of the war with ukraine, kozyrev called on all russian diplomats to resign in protest. andrei kozyrev joins me now. mr. kozyrev, thanks for being with us. you have an intermittent knowledge of this that many people don't know because you know some of the players, you know some of them personally, you know some of them otherwise. vladimir putin has asserted himself as a leader who provides stability, like him or not, that's what he promises. this wagner rebellion shows just how much instability exists within his structure of authority. how do you read what's happening? how do you read this rebellion in terms of what it says about putin's power and authority? >> you know, when you look from here, and then when you look from outside, with the free flow of information, with the free flow of images, definitely, it is a disaster. it would be a disaster for any government, for any president. but in russia, i believe

in 1993, boris yeltsin actually had his army shelling the russian parliament to stop an attempt to ousttions and yet their own time in office became very limited because their legitimacy and authority was undermined by these actions, even though they were unsuccessful. i think it is unclear what the actual fallout will be going forward. but i certainly think that putin looks a lot weaker today than he did a week ago and there is a lot more dissension in russia and i think putin hasible to to be troubled by the fact that people were not rushing to his side while the wagner convoy was heading toward moscow, the russian military was not attacking the wagner mercenaries and ordinary people were cheering the wagner group on. i think that is all cause for concern for putin and will leave others in the elite circle to question his longevity. >> max boot, raf sanchez, thank you both so much, appreciate it. >>> up next, an attack planned in plain sight. a new report on the striking intelligence failures before the january 6th attack. >>> plus, a day in court turned into a family therapy session.

he was russia's foreign minister under boris yeltsin.rd, the elusive fate of russian democracy. appreciate you making time for us again. how are you? >> thank you. so-so looking to moscow, looking to what happens in my motherland. that does not give you good mood, you know. >> right, not a good mood, and again, as with all foreign coverage, we have to only imagine for a moment if it was our homeland, if we were there and if there's many people we mentioned this whether it's russia, china, or iran, there's tons of innocent people living their lives, but under this type of government. as we try to make sense of the question i just mentioned, what should we understand about how this started and what the pullback meant. >> well, you started actually showing my comment when we met before, and you know, i meant and i think you meant the real kind of position, a position inside probably the putin structure of government, a position from i thought patriotic early mind, military people, but patriotically minded offices. i met a lot of them actual

same thing happened in 1993 with boris yeltsin. but look at the most serious challenge to putin, his 23 year rainiest day. and the perpetrators got off scot-free. in fact, members of the wagner group were told they could join the ministry of defense if they wanted, rather than the initial threat of punishment. vladimir putin is not sitting pretty in the kremlin right now, he has been exposed, there are not a questions about how he can rule with an iron fist moving forward, how much support he will have. especially at a time when his move to rostov 16 months ago was meant to be a three-day operation, it turned into a long slog by the russian military, they have been embarrassed by the valiance of the ukrainians. his top military brass have been accused of corruption and mismanagement. so he is in a very vulnerable position. and there are questions about his judgment, putting someone like pushing into power, giving him so much money, ammunition and for this spectacularly backfiring display, a lot of questions about vladimir putin's j

he way boris yeltsin collapsed, are there illusions to that with mr. putin in the coming months?tina: absolutely. this is where i think political science is helpful. authoritarian regimes can consolidate around an individual as putin has done over the past 23 years. they cannot shut down all forms of dissent -- can shut down all forms of dissent. that tends to mean they are brittle and break rather than bend. this script, prigozhin has gone off the reservation with his remarks which have blown holes through all the narratives that the west has been fed, that russia was forced to invade because of nato expansion, because of violation of human rights of russian speakers, etc. prigozhin said this is because they ran out of stuff in don bass. lisa: that is where i wanted to go. why didn't vladimir putin shut him down months ago when he started to release these types of commentary out there? do we have a sense of why prigozhin was allowed to have a voice? very few people in russia have been allowed to have in this war. tina: there are two possible explanations and they can both coexis

the processes around this institution, as a neglect of memory, or the initiative to close the boris yeltsinrent russian legislation and the exposition. there must be objective with all the pluses of boris nikolayevich and his, unfortunately, tragic mistakes. this is our common history. by the way, let me remind you that alexander lukashenko signed an agreement on a union state of russia with boris yeltsin, and it seems to me that yeltsin was a sample of the early 90s, who in congress, so, uh, said god save america and yeltsin, who passed as head of state chechen war. through deception with the bombing of yugoslavia. through many other dirty tricks from western partners. these were still two different people, but it is necessary to place objective markers, they should not be there. excuse the russophobic nest, which, unfortunately, according to a number of facts, indeed, there are certain issues that need to be worked on not only politically , but, as it seems to me, from the special services. indeed, any organization. let cultural. let the trading company comply with the laws of the russian

hollywood broiler males, come on help, just as the lgbt columns were frightened , the spirit of boris nikolayevich yeltsinmrades-in-arms and comrades-in-arms, will appear and neo-nazism will perish. well, yes, well, yes, the only spirit of vengeance that can burn it all out. here he is joseph , the son of vissarion, stalin will come screaming. zoya gentleman before she was hanged. let's censor her words. from now on , let's write that zoya shouted that stalin would not come, but for example, he would come. the era of democracy does not sound so convincing. truth we will turn to him even i guess those who hate him and they want to burn out his memory now and forever in a monstrous moment. suddenly they exclaim. come damn. save save many, probably do not like the intonation with which i speak, the rest. i must rebuke. i have to speak differently. i understand that you do not like intonation but the fact is that i am not saying anything that contradicts historical data. you cannot dispute this. you can only dispute the intonation, perhaps the attitude towards your own children should characterize stalin best

should remember russia was being run by a total booze hound who show up for work most of the time, boris yeltsin. and so the key goal when putin was installed was to ensure continuity that the people who had been around the yeltsin entourage and yeltsin's own family would be protected. and they wanted someone who they felt would basically live up to that unwritten understanding that they could keep their ill gotten gains. they also needed to show the russian people that there was a sober man of action on the job who could protect their country. and that's why you see all these ridiculous images early in putin's career of wearing sailor suits and flying in the cockpit of jet fighters and stuff and parading around with guns. it was kind of create an image of there's a decent, you know, normal person in charge after a while. and the image that they built for him was all based on pop culture. and there was a kind of dashing man of the silver screen who was named skeptical of who was russia's george clooney. basically, the soviet george clooney. and he played a deep cover kgb operative who wormed his

this is boris nikolayevich yeltsin, he has not been with us for a long time .on't want to discuss we won't what it's operating and personality owner. nikolaevich yeltsin well, let's discuss the legacy so the yeltsin center about the yeltsin center. how many copies broke there, how many disputes went? what does it mean to do with it, to close or not to close? or let it be worth saying so, as a living reminder of the nineties, or close it, because they are just there. liberal propaganda pours on the head of the unfortunate, which means its visitors. it’s very difficult there, by the way, you can’t hide anywhere like las vegas. you know, there's a slot machine in every toilet. here in the yeltsin center everywhere. so one day hide from the real such thick liberal propaganda. here, let 's listen. uh, what did the head of the hrc valery say about these disputes about the closures of hertz's non-closures, please yeltsin center - this is tougher than a short course in the history of the great communist party of the bolsheviks, especially the cartoon at the beginning w

live on these 320 to see how she lies, that she goes shopping buys cutlets and all that and feeds boris yeltsinr instead of the soviet flag over the kremlin. now the raid is russian tricolor, but this does not reduce, but rather increases the degree international conflicts. in 1992 alone, an armed net against ingush clashes over a disputed area claimed the lives of hundreds of people. now the transnistrian conflict is flaring up in foreign moldavia. it is barely able to be extinguished by the forces of russian peacekeepers, it is blazing and in abkhazia, those demanding independence and independence from georgia are already on the move. full-fledged military operations in general, the atmosphere in russia is clearly not festive. oh, and let's not forget that in russia the capital is also directly tanks, so this is andrey lenivich traveled, because our regular viewers know that these photographs with tanks there on one of them you , we found you. so, tell me, please, what meaning did you put then on this, as it were, day and now is it still a holiday for you or what? frankly, for me it has never

joe biden is our yeltsin he is boris yeltsin at the very end of a long list of illiberal progressivebalist presidents donald trump stood apart, but they took joe biden and put him in power. he is not the one who runs everything, he is not responsible for anything. if we want to take back the country. we must return our choices. we don't have much time left growing influence prince weakening the us growing influence of china around the world. all this is happening around us right now, we feel that the united states is weakening yet another series of loud statements, according to donald , with the canoe, not america died and became a loser nation and the nation of his folder, the former head of the white house once again called for cognitive testing of all candidates. who is running for president , regardless of age, the trampushka himself is only 3 years younger than biden, but in his the capacity of their cognitive abilities is also not in doubt. moreover, the trans people again promised to quickly end the ukrainian conflict. if he becomes president, along with fox host hennessy , tr

figure him out like that, he was received by one president, it seems that his last name was boris nikolayevich yeltsinwas such a smile and there was such happiness, and just like that they did not accept great britain studied us at the university explained it was in the ninety-third year. and as you remember, the collapse of the pound was a year earlier and they explained to us that this is the person who made us black black wednesday. do you know what this environment is called, but do you understand our enemy as a white environment? well, but, but the powerful british recognized him as their own, they pat him on the head. and we had a different story, the soros foundations, here they slowly seized power, especially in educational institutions, and began to publish magazines. here see what a great photo? which friendship what wonderful people and you understand how it all ended up with the fact that slowly everything began to shrink a little and the quarrel to expose itself. it was terribly difficult. it was terribly difficult. you know why, because a lot was captured by the word patriot with the fil

coup against mikhail gorbachev, the coup leaders were put in prison, 93, the rebellion against boris yeltsinht between the kremlin and the wagner grip. some of these details were made public, it was apparently negotiated with the help of the leader of belarus, alexander lukashenko and under that deal yevgeny prigozhin heads off to belarus and all charges against him dropped. the wagner fighters will not be prosecuted either but are there more details to come out, was something decided about the fate of the russian military leadership? we do not know, we need to be patient and wait to see what emerges in the coming days. and wait to see what emerges in the coming days-— and wait to see what emerges in the coming days. always great to talk to ou, thank coming days. always great to talk to you. thank yom _ that is the view from moscow. 0ur correspondent andrew harding is in the donbas region of ukraine. andrew, tell us about the reaction in ukraine to these events — they must be being watched so closely? they must be being watched so closel ? w , they must be being watched so closel ? , ~ , .,

relationship with russia, but again i will raise the question of who at one time in 1995, when boris nikolayevich yeltsinfrom russia distanced itself and even ukraine led this policy from the mid-nineties. it was lukashenka who once raised the people's question of integration with russia, and despite all our economic. gas oil meat milk all this is certainly important in numbers, especially for us, because we do not have such resources . as you, he defends our interests and correctly. in my opinion, it does, but when a real challenge arose for the two states, we, as we said, stood shoulder to shoulder and in fact we are now opposing this moloch, which means, led by the americans, who simply gobble up and grind everything in their path and we will resist and the fact that you saw the possibilities of the state committee for the military industry, belarus i can tell you firsthand i know the management of the military industry , the enterprise of the domestic military-industrial complex works on weekends in three shifts of pensioners. i had to get out of the deep, so to speak, i had to get change from those

done business with russia before , certainly with gorbachev of bons , certainly with gorbachev of boris yeltsinnk ine— can't afford to do this. i think the difficulty is, is that, you know, i'm not an economist and most people in this country aren't. people don't necessarily understand what inflation means in real terms. and also 5 billion is so big a number, it's basically impossible to grasp it. it's too big. what we do understand is that life is harder. people are working as harder. people are working as hard they ever did and hard as they ever did and getting it in real getting less for it in real terms. and i think it's unavoidable that people are going to feel incredibly fed up about these about that situation. and these are particularly you know, these are particularly you know, these are hard jobs. these are jobs that take out you that take it out of you physically. these are these are people who are putting in some cases, the line, cases, their life on the line, who work the entire who work through the entire pandemic the medical pandemic and the medical scenarios. can't really scenari
