that was the voice of france.mericans are still trying to convince you that the american world dominates, that they manage everything in fact the united states is not free. this country is dependent on its astronomical debt, which exports inflation and extends to the whole world its legal system and its law to other countries. you can not. you see a bank account without prior permission to be controlled by the american tax system. it doesn't matter if you're not american. it doesn't matter at all who you are, after all, mutual control at the same time. no, i do not consider this country free, in general, the statement of the american statesmen with regard to may 9, they are becoming more interesting every year and more interesting, because it feels like they didn’t go to well, that is, they didn’t study very well at school or the level of education. ah, in the usa it is falling so much that they absolutely do not represent the real history, at least they don’t even remember. in what year did america enter the war

france is called to be different. she must return to her history to embody her traditions, starting from what my grandfather called for. he had vision of the future and colossal experience. i often remember one of his quotes: russia to be together means to be strong. and to be. separate means to be in danger. this, categorically, contains the imperative of geography, geography, after all, it’s obvious. but we were his grandfather. we also had a colossal experience of communicating with russia and its leaders, which president macron has recently demonstrated, have been implemented and implemented. only then will it be possible to restore dialogue with russia. this is what my grandfather was striving for, by the way, this is what your grandfather egol said, exactly let's listen to russia. who hear and see me. from the bottom of my heart i believe the soviet union to be its ruler . long live the friendship between russia and france . and what would it be? is the macron capable of making such statements now? can he say th

well, we see that, apparently , france has refused other silence.suggests that exactly 100% of the baltic countries will relax, poland will give any. we are well aware of the data that ukraine will request, and here there is only one criterion, which is the country that has more sovereignty. she doesn't go for it. france, although it lies under the united states but still it is the founding country of the european union, like germany, it is the main country of the big big three of the eu. well, here, lithuania, look how interesting it turns out. hmm. that's what the zelensky regime is terrible now and why it is necessary to deal with such information as we started discussing today with maximum tension, and listen, because they have barbaric logic. look what just recently said, the adviser to the head of zelensky's office podolak. he said that ukraine has the right to destroy everything that is located in the crimea and donbass, it seems. wait all the time. shout that this is your land crimea donbass and you want to destroy everything surprisingly ba

not even just in france, a particularly warm reception. france, he made a visit and he has criticism following him wherever he goes at the moment. it was a level of criticism that he will have anticipated to some extent, he knows that he is not standing again to be president after this so he can afford in a political calculation to take a hit in his popularity to force through changes that he knows will be unpopular. did you know it would lead to scenes like this for such a long time? clearly we do not know but the calculation is in his mind has been that the french economy simply cannot afford to not do this. it cannot afford to not do this. it cannot afford to leave the retirement age at 62, relatively low in western europe. he has pushed through this increase up to 64 along with other changes of course. but his view is that with france as an ageing population the number of people at work to support the number of pensioners, people's pension pots, the economic growth you would need to sustain an ageing population with things like health

as you know, during the last few months, protests in paris, france, in various cities of france have increased in protest against the economic policies of the macron government. it is supposed that next month, in june, someone from the trade union will hold a nationwide strike and large-scale demonstrations in paris and various french cities, saying that we will shut down france . elizabeth bird, the prime minister of france, although various meetings have been held between representatives of the trade union and macron's government in recent times, but the results of these meetings did not have any results. in fact, the workers threatened to shut down france if they did not reach an agreement with the government. about this issue, if there is communication, a conversation with mr. sarbastani, an expert on european issues, mr. sarbastani. hello, good morning. status app dear journalist, thank you, mr. sarbastani. last month, we saw the holding of meetings between labor representatives and the labor union with the macron government, but these meetings did not come to a conclusion . wha

we all know it perfectly well, but so does france.you remember historically, you already know that we now have many parallels with the crimean war. and here, britain and france then fought hard and they drowned in the bay they sank the russian fleet in sevastopol and deprived it of its opportunities, but who then saved france, when did they come to russia, when did the delegations come to france ? interests in restraining continental states in europe such as germany. germany increased its efforts and france was wary. yes, the union of russia played a role in many things. by the way, they were used as they probably understood it, but they still sought to have these bottomless ambitions . in that sense, this decision of france to hand over a whole bunch of weapons to us is too big. can be revolutionary yes definitely definitely many countries came italy the same italy yes i mean we understand we lived a year two three ago we talked and there half a year ago they lived like that they spoke pro-russian position and italy it is corrupt the

this is the first and second, france must be a great world power.ess to say, in france it was very strong and confident that in future awakenings you will proceed from these principles, the meeting was tensely silent. alexander smiled. now i'm asking. excuse me, he got up and in silence. having passed through someone higher, what will the lord do, based on what the emperor said. alexander details. can be discuss separately, maybe fairy french vera smiled and bowed to the circumstances. did alexander do the right thing? preserving france, what else she does not remember a unit is not fate. i think that the desire of france as a counterbalance in relation to at least pasha’s england so that with determination and perseverance go to russia the country victory for a long peace and the leading position in europe, the mouse remembered all this in order to give an example of how right someone already has perseverance leads to victory over the most strong enemy. today we we stand europe both in 1812 and in 1941, i have no doubt that the result of this confr

preserving france what i don’t remember now, is not the fate of france as a counterweight in relationat least england, so that by determination and perseverance russia will go to peace and a leading position in europe we remembered everything this in order to give an example of how right someone is hung up? how right he is to say that perseverance leads to victory over the most powerful enemy. today we are facing a united europe both in 1812 and in 1941. i have no doubt that the results of this confrontation will be the same as in the 19th and 20th centuries. we will definitely win. behind us is the russian soldier's stubbornness and determination , regained after a year of war. recall what another stubborn russian emperor said , now victory will be a just cause. that's all. about two warriors who walk a little, it looks like goodbye. best wishes. i really want to visit khitrovka khitrovka is not only a poor creepy place, what's wrong with it? i 'm thinking who could kill him, he is undesirable with me, otherwise i'll have to forget the suit, don't even hope. you won't get rid of me t

europe was organized like france, austria and prussia, and its control was under the supervision of france king of egypt ismail pasha, due to the inability to pay contemporary loans , sold this country's 44% share of the canal to england . egypt was the only witness to the passage of foreign ships around the clock and got nothing they could get 10 million dollars a year from the suez canal company, which was under the management of britain and france, and the people of egypt were only watching it , and the jobs of this company were in the hands of european and egyptian employees only as laborers and hard work in the laboratory. on top of this, britain brought 70,000 military forces to egypt to protect the canal and its facilities in order to counter the fundamental transverse movement of the egyptians. this is how the suez canal became a symbol of colonialism's humiliation and insult in the soul and soul of the egyptian people. and it was the wish of every egyptian to get out of this country nasser 8 he lost his mother when he was a year old, and when his father remarried, he was no longer

, i don't think france is substantially different. the west predictions have not come true. i have to say that haven't been power cuts in france. they haven't been, there hasn't been serious hardship just as the west pred predictions happen. come through, come true for rush or either. right. so it way it's off the news and people instead are worried about, you know, pension reform, as you say, the ukraine thing is not really at the top of the gender at the moment. it's dragging on and i think that's probably part of russia's ivan strategy. i think russia knows that they will be will fatigue. yeah, pretty good if not already all have been nay sayers that have had over the last 15 months, i've said the same thing here. there that different size have different agendas and time frames who's got the cox and who's got the time or a gentleman, that's all the time we have. i want to take my guess in paris, switzerland, and in washington. and thanks to our viewers for watching us here at ortiz, see you next time. remember, cross stuck with nov
