well, of course, when i was offered to ask jake sullivan this question, and by the way, thank you, show my article on the new york times yes, yes, yes, and well, in short, of course, this is very important, in fact, this is the new york times article. you probably never suspected in your life that you will have to write an article for the new york times. well, maybe it would be like that, some kind of dreams . no, i had no idea, i didn’t even dream. well, even more so , you probably had no idea that you would write this story about something like this. the second grade gets a triple with a plus. for the work and says listen to me, and soon the new york times will print what do you even have bosses? you know, i was thinking something like that, and the only thing i thought was when i was getting twos and i was getting a notebook that i opened and it was all red from mistakes , and now the teacher goes to yegor firsov's page, opens it, and there cnn and there and now she is blushing and thinking, god, how come she is writing comments now under the new york times article . by the way, this

jake sullivan v.edia also has a version that us president joe biden decided to blow up gas pipelines in order to punish the german chancellor catch and schultz. no desire to supply new batches of weapons to ukraine i think the people who were instructed. this task was given to him in 2021, shortly before christmas, he was given by biden national security adviser jake sullivan. the idea was that this would be one of the options, undermining the pipeline, and the president himself publicly said last february that if they enter, then we blow up the pipelines , what we wanted to do was not a big secret. unfortunately, the western press or the american press forgot about this phrase. sledge friendship cup has started. hockey. this is a young paralympic sport in which players do not skate and fight on ice on special sleds . teams from moscow and samara arrived, as well as local hockey players who recently united the club, who appeared in yaroslavl with all the details of evgeny's legs. even before the kick-

this was reported by jake sullivan, us president joe biden's national security advisor , according tothe administration of the current american leader has long encouraged xi jinping to do so, since washington is convinced that the leader of the celestial empire just needs to hear for himself the ukrainian point of view on everything that is happening in our country and not listen only to information from russia, however, jake sullivan also added that it is not yet known for sure and he cannot confirm whether the conversation between volodymyr zelenskyi and xi jinping will take place, we all really hope that it will take place, because it is possible that something will change, and maybe at least something small will change. ukrainians need to be helped in their just fight against russian aggression. the statement was made by the president of the united states of america , joe biden, the prime minister of great britain , rishi sunak, and the prime minister of australia, anthony albanese, during a meeting in the american san diego, california, the day before the leaders of the three cou

when jake sullivan, among others, the incoming national security adviser directed a number of us to hit the ground running on day one. when it comes to bringing home americans, i held abroad, and during that transition he asked a few of us who had worked on these types of issues in the past in government to make sure we were up to speed on current cases. and there were cases like all recessive beginners that began before day one that we in a sense, inherited as an administration, some of that involved researching where those cases stood. some of it involved engaging with families and with those advocating for representing families. but it meant that when we got here to the white house on day one of the administration, this really could be a priority from the get go. now taking the story a bit forward from there. as i indicated, a paul's case was among goes, we inherited as an administration and really from the outset, both publicly and privately. we indicated what an imperative it was to resolve this matter, to resolve it in a way that re united paul with his family here in the united s

wrote, there is a process that began for christmas 2021, where us presidential security advisor jake sullivanved 56 russian children were returned from syria, this is the largest group during the entire humanitarian mission, the smallest child of 3 years old was accompanied by psychologists in flight . rehabilitation ahead told about this, presidential commissioner for children's rights maria lvova belova spent two days in syria on a working visit handed over almost half a ton of humanitarian cargo for families that suffered from the recent earthquake baby food, a blanket , school supplies, toys, meanwhile noted that work on the return of children from syria will continue from the refugee camps to the al-holler camps, rye and a few people in the shelter board, of course, it's probably not worth telling how difficult the conditions are. they were there with the leadership of the kursk side. we agreed to take another 200 children out. as you can see, actually our negotiations are getting better and better and the group of children is getting bigger and bigger and of course, but we really hope t

the officials stress what we heard from jake sullivan yesterday. were no surprised here that theed a ad ministration wa close contact with those in the region, including china. they were alerted to this. they stressed the point you noted, which is that this is a long-term deal this is not something that's going into affect tomorrow this is something that ultimately would start to take affect in 2030 and 2040. you cannot ignore the backdrop, the tensions between the u.s. and china, the growing concerns about china's aggressions toward taiwan as well as, of course, the fact that the u.s. has expressed concerns that they are considering lethal aid to russia >> and the fact that the u.s. had already announced that they were expanding the marine deployment in the philippinesphs china, from its perspective is seeing as being the aggressor. we, of course, see what they have done in south china sea, claiming that territory for themselves, as being really aggressive and territorial the president was asked yesterday whether he would be speaking to president

i will not see, and do indians take seriously the idea the joe biden and to the blink, jake sullivan, victoria newland, and the see a bomb the north street pipeline is, is that a different the and and when we truly are being well, it's kind of important isn't it that, given that the biggest central fire or something that it's important, that is something that we will put it into a computer for future. notice it's by, there's not something that we get get it will by. if somebody says that we will decide who you are and so on. well, i'm pretty sure 9 i would do more than that if in this pipelines and india and i don't see why, i don't see why china just on back and do what we had agreed in one thing that imperial powers, imperial washington realizes they can split the joint power powers of india and china and you are falling into that trap. maybe it's your american education. yeah . it's just like i value that a jewish name starts then by law my lawyer. so i became a famous man in economics, thanks to them. but the fact is that a i b had extremely good relations with china. from 1952. 1

and do indians take seriously the idea, the joe biden, antony blinking jake sullivan, victoria newland, and the caea bomb the north stream pipeline. is that a different h and, and when we actually are being well, it's kind of important, isn't it that given that the biggest central fire or something that it's important, something that we will put it into our computer for future. notice it's by design, something that we get, get it all by. if somebody says that we will decide who will be what and so on. well, i'm pretty sure 9, i would do more than that if india's pipelines in india. and i don't see why i don't see why china just back and do what we had agreed in 1995 and then change the whole climate. you know, we've been through like the previous interview where what your doing is in effect, divide and rule by washington. if you continually isn't that what moody has recognized that imperial powers, imperial washington realizes they can split the joint power powers of india and china. and you are falling into that trap. maybe it's your american education. we are. it's just, i mean, i va

and of course, you know, there are people like victoria new and, and jake sullivan. anthony blink and they have a very long history of wanting to see the end of the russian federation. and that this is the stuff that you can learn. but what about the people in the rest of europe? i mean, this is not their crusade. okay. it's that is a crusade of elites in a very specific group of beliefs. go ahead. alexandra. yeah, you're absolutely right about that. i think it recently came out how in march last year, just after the russian counter attacks in done boston and other parts of the ukraine zelinski wanted to actually negotiate. and he was hoping to, you know, find a diplomatic solution to this right at the beginning. but the state department came in and the u. s. handlers came in and said, no, you can't do that. we have a war to fight here. so it's quite clear that the ukraine has become an apparatus, the state department in the same way that the e u. is as well we all remember, newland call that was leaks where she was describing her disdain for the you. and i think you

the american side was represented in the conversation by national security advisors jake sullivan , defense once again confirmed their steadfast support, and the ukrainians in turn informed them about the current situation at the front and combat operations in the most difficult directions well, in fact, what kind of support should we expect in the future, because well, in fact , the discussion of this support is already at the highest level more than 50 countries of the world, representatives of these countries of the world are gathering and not rammstein are signing very important agreements ukraine is getting weapons that even a year ago, in fact , ms. olga could not tell me how many countries will be ready to continue this support until the final victory until a certain possible again after all, the freezing of the conflict, which is being written about somewhere in the russian public, but it is obvious that europe is not ready for this. well, we are even more so, yes, i remember conversations about this with your channel or a predecessor hours ago before the start of the war and then i

this should scare the chinese government very much 26 in february, us national security adviser jake sullivanade it clear to china that washington knows about possible plans to supply russia with weapons, we have not seen them take steps to supply russia with weapons for the purpose of waging a war in ukraine, we are watching closely we know that we have not given up on this yet and we are sending a clear signal together with our european partners that this could be a real mistake because these weapons can be used to bomb cities and murderous and china should not want to be a part of this in congress and the democrats and the republic of beijing as one among the biggest challenges is china, which may start helping russia, and this, in turn , may lead to the need to impose huge sanctions on our part. europe is under threat due to russian aggression against cooperation with china, in this particular case, we have two authoritarian governments that threaten expansion based on what they declare, they both talk about seizing lands that do not belong to them, professor serhiy radchenko believes tha

what today we expect to hear from them, the details where we got a preview from jake sullivan on air force one. and we know that what this is, what's going to happen is that this will, this program will go decades long. it will begin with u. s. and u. k. submarines making rotations in australia as a matter fact there's a u. s. submarine in the board of perth right now. but eventually, over the course of years, australia starting in 2032 would by 3 nuclear power, but carrying conventional weapons submarines from the u. s. with the option of buying 2 more. and then they would work on their industrial asking because ultimately they would make their own in australia that's not expected to happen until the 20 forty's. now, senior white house administration officials have said they were prodded in part by the war in ukraine. it showed the cooperation among european nations there in part by the threat of north korea. but the major threat that looming in the south china sea is china itself. it has been aggressively taking manmade islands and using them as military fortresses. they've been ra

said it two or three times every time he says that within minutes the white house staff comes out jake sullivan and people from the national security council they will supply thewa taiwanese with weapons. there's a difference between american troops in taiwan and dweaponry. so whicho is that? is that the president or his staff? we know the president is making the choice. he needs to be clear with president xi. we will defend taiwan militarily and if you crossll that line you better believe we will do it. the problem today is if that the chinese were to invade taiwan tomorrow we wouldn't be there in time to beas successful or bluer successful it would come to a huge cost as daniel pointed out earlier. by having forces there it's giving the taiwanese the capabilities that and they need to defend themselves as well alongside of her forces. that is what will deter bad behavior and david ignatius is right. unfortunately given a red line and our abandonment of the british allies and their ivana the frustration of failure to take the fight to the russians and ukrainians beginning off the conflict and
