what am i talking about, what do i mean... now first i stole a lot of money from game in the state defense committee a classic corrupt official, and now is developing sanctions against our country, a proud student of the central bank, he held a major position there, using the knowledge of experience, so, uh, when i asked the head of the central bank, what is not satisfactory about the growth rates that we had there until the third quarter, but the first ones there are very a beautiful phrase that the trajectory... of balanced growth there expected in 2 years will come to the numbers, 2.5%, i say, but the number five or 10 does not suit me at all, who drew the trajectory for them, so no , i would like to see the pissing pigeon of progress, that is it’s just where do they get this attitude from, i respectfully, i’m talking about the pigeons of progress, that is, who drew this trajectory, what kind of trajectory it is, but the explanation is not entirely convincing, because i wanted to hear why it’s not satisfactory, the next phrase turned out to be that yes russian e can grow faster, but why can it, i

defense. discuss these aspects... with andrei kortopolov, the chairman of the state duma defense committee isndrey valerievich, i greet you. yes , good morning, please analyze these approaches, what is called zelsky for a counter-offensive, zaluzhny, rather for some kind of defensive strategy, and is this even true? well, probably, it’s literally impossible to compare, it’s necessary to evaluate it here understand the following, firstly, zaluzhny is still a military professional, and he , unlike zelsky, clearly understands what makes up the success of certain operations, and zelsky is a showman who got into politics, and for him, in his such an expansive manner of conveying the material, in the foreground, they do not agree on this, if we take , indeed, an analysis of the capabilities of the armed forces of ukraine, then today they are exhausted for carrying out large-scale offensive operations, they simply do not exist, because in order to attack the enemy on one or more selected directions, an appropriate one must be created. there should be a superiority over the enemy by three times, in b

the state defense committee of the dpr issued a decree on free water supply to the population.ublic voda donbassa , recalculations for water supply services were carried out. water disposal to the population from march 1, 2022. how was this water crisis managed to be overcome in the republic? the head of the republic decided to settle all issues for the construction of a water pipeline from the don river in the city of rostov, which allowed optimize the water supply system. thank you very much, it was very nice to hear from you today, goodbye. i suggest talking to one more person who has definitely experienced everything that happened in mariupol and under ukraine, and can now compare it with what is happening under russia, this is a great friend of our program, andrey kuor, we are glad to welcome you, good afternoon, hello , our enemies touched upon a very sore subject with this topic, i believe that it cannot be, you know, some kind of coincidence that these tariffs well, in some cases, they amounted to, well, 90% of the income of certain families there, in particular pension

soviet people won in the rear, and the partisans, and how industry worked, how it worked the state defense committeetion of factories from the western part of the soviet union to the east was uniquely created, all this is what speaks of itself as a feat of the soviet people in this exhibition, here a subtle point can be overdone, then there is such a frontal edifying... and moralizing and you have just such a great strong skill of making jokes and making it easier and somehow natively building some kind of lightness into it. or will it blur the focus on the seriousness of the topic? you joke in general, it happens, it happens, to my honor, i say that jokes in this case are addressed and what they can be used for, well , you can improvise, any joke is a kind of improvisation based on a certain given fact, for example, with you and me now night program, yes, we talk at night, our chairs are not very comfortable, they force you and me to sit. this is probably correct, but if you and i fantasized and the camera flew up, we could talk like this, well, when we move on to space, and i wanted, igor stanisla

gospodineshenko, then the most connected, the most important event that was connected was the state defense committeestanding economy here, on the contrary, as soon as they found themselves somewhere overboard, the economy turned out to be. the bloc is now jumping over its head, largely due to its merit, the employees of the central bank, the employees of the ministry of finance, all its graduates, they are now keeping us from this from this, no, we have the only bloc of power that turned out to be at a higher level from the very beginning, financially, in terms of others had questions, and it is a great tragedy that indeed, a person has to say that i have no other way of influencing, that is, on russia, except to come up with these terrible sanctions packages, that’s what , that’s what i wanted to say, about holes, about holes, a personal tragedy for a person, it doesn’t look tragic, its tragedy, i wanted to talk about sanctions in general, why the holes were initially laid there, how the sanctions regime was formed in general, i recently wrote a small scientific work about this, at first the americ

he transfers to the department of defense from the state control committee.ntries. extremely important, the belarusian leader emphasized, one of the main ones, i won’t say that in zimbabwe we are building our relations from scratch, no, my visit was last year, but naturally, this is not only my merit, everything that was done before the visit and after the visit, says that we have, of course, not yet a plowed field there, although thanks to us they have already received enough bread to feed people, but there is a lot of work, we need to create a diplomatic mission, we need to enter this country more widely, especially since they are waiting for us, they value us very much, we have proven that we are respectable people, they want us to have our own technologies, in mechanical engineering and in other industries, construction, healthcare, education, personnel training, it is very important, and in the agricultural sector, that we transfer our technologies to zimbabwe. the neighbors, when they found out, heard, they were very, very, especially, we said mozambiqu

i would like to discuss this, we have connections andrei kortopolov, chairman of the state duma committee on defensedrei valerievich, hello, how do you see the situation, from a military point of view, is the army able to fulfill at the moment their tasks, i do not take their official statements. is this how you see the situation? yes, alexander, good morning, well , you and i don’t know what tasks sahal faces, we haven’t seen, we haven’t seen the operation plan, so it’s difficult to compare to what extent their actual achievements there correspond to what they planned for themselves, let’s speculate, of course it is extremely important for israel to complete... costs in the international arena, three countries have recalled their ambassadors, anti-israeli demonstrations continue in all countries, including western europe and even the united states itself, in israel itself, not everyone agrees with this approach to conducting an operation. therefore, the faster it is completed, the better, on the one hand, on the other hand, because, yes, the main thing today sahal has been declared an enemy, but le

of the committee on national security, defense and intelligence also remove full responsibility, because at that time our committee approved all defense purchases that were made, including stated special protection . i think that when we receive materials or more complete information from the authorities of the pre-trial investigation, we will be able to conduct an audit of how this happened, and then i will be able to answer this question more broadly to you or to your colleagues, but i believe that the very fact of a quick reaction when there was the suspicion was reported and the cabinet of ministers made a corresponding personnel decision on removal from the position, it is quite telling and i think that it is such, you know, a piece of paper that representatives of the authorities react very sharply to any manifestations of corruption. mr. fedor, perhaps there are some other officials, under whom the chair may be shaking, it is clear that you did not announce those names, but perhaps preparations are underway for rethinking some or other directions, in which certain personnel changes should or could take place rotations, you know, questions to... or other government offi

next, as stated, there will be a meeting with the defense committee, where tsakhal’s military plans willors. here, of course, one would ask the question why a sovereign state. they invite an american curator to their closed military events, well, we, as decent people, won’t ask such questions , we’ll just wait for the results to be announced, please, in general the topic is very important, and then what, because everyone is more passionate about what’s happening right now earth, and there you can see a picture of certain military successes of israel, which, by the way, no one really doubted, and i was in this studio... when all this was just starting, it began, i was talking about the military successes of israel , in this ground operation itself, they will most likely take place with different consequences, with different options, but they will solve their task, but it seems to me that you know, there is such an already established expression from the title of the film , the illusion of control, now there is such an illusion of control in general, not only in gas, and in general there i

andrii taran was the minister of defense, and bezugula was already a member of the committee on national security, defense and intelligence, we did not carry out a state defense order, but for some reason she was silent, there was no such increased information activity, there were no calls to fire... the minister, this, you say , is the president's prerogative, well, firing the commander-in-chief of the armed forces is also the president's prerogative, that is, ms. maryana tells the president or something, i don't quite i understand this logic, but you yourself said that, you were surprised because so much attention is paid to the words of a deputy who is not an independent political figure, whose interests are then voiced in my space by bezugla, and if this position is pro-government, then why only ms. bezugla, why are there such single-point attacks, so to speak, well, i think that the game here is purely military-psychological, when a hard worker, who is called an iron general , is attacked by a woman, he wants to be from a specialized parliamentary committee, a woman criticizes him, this should cause ... obviously for by the calculation of those p

support, the ukrainians may lose this war, us defense secretary tosin and secretary of state anthony blinken said this week during a senate budget committeering. austin believes that putin hopes that the west will get tired of supporting ukraine, so he will soon get his way. if that's the case, if we don't support ukraine and putin wins, he won't stop at ukraine. therefore , both officials believe that aid to ukraine and israel should not be divided, since both wars are related. however, we know that the us house of representatives has already approved the bill. about emergency aid to israel and in this project, unfortunately, there is no mention of ukraine , despite the fact that us president biden asked the house of representatives of congress to combine aid to israel and ukraine, let's see now, mr. volodymyr, let's see our material now and then we will discuss it with you, 226 for, 196 against. the lower house of the us congress approved the aid package for israel on more than 14 billion dollars split along party lines. democrats mostly did not support the bill. the reason is that it does not have funds to support ukraine. president jo

state. solomiya bobrovska, people's deputy from the faction of the votes of members of the committee. naz security defenseins the air. salami, good evening. glory to ukraine! glory to the heroes. these are the questions that mrs. bezugla voiced, as those to which there is allegedly no answer. you put them to the commander-in-chief at meetings the committee, and in general, which points voiced by her are rational, in your opinion. well, first of all, we definitely ask this question and ask it regularly to the representatives of the general staff at the committee or those who come to our meetings. groups, of course it is discussed, we of course understand, and we know the numbers and, regarding the failure of mobilization, which we lack people today until the end of the year, in particular, we often solve the common question of how to improve mobilization, how to find, how to reform the approach to mobilization, how to attract the largest broad sections of the population to the national resistance, in fact, where the whole society belongs, and there is a military and, er, and civilian component, and in fact

at all, let maryana bring order to the committee on national security and defense, when i don't know, this committee was chosen based on the conclusions of the stateor, and let it look after its functional duties. valeriy fedorovych copes very well with his functional duties, and we as civilians have no right, this is my personal position, we have no right to interfere in the conduct of war and in the understanding of war, that is what our military do, that is why we support the commander-in-chief, we will support, because absolutely from everyone, you know, now there is unprecedented trust and unprecedented support among the military central committee, and i'm just getting hung up on the phone asking what's going on with the central committee in kyiv, people are asking out of nowhere, so i would recommend the authorities not to touch this situation, but to do what they should be doing, their official duties. well, it remains worrying that, although the scandal will soon last a week, and the story itself, in general , continues much longer, about which a large publication has now appeared in the british the economist, which draws attention to that

letter to biden, one of the leaders, actually the head of the republicans of the committee on defense of the united states, regarding biden, whether there is a strategy for the victory of ukraine, now it is formulated as hard as possible, that is , is there such a strategy, because the republicans will say that they are not ready simply pour money without understanding. how and when, under what conditions will the war in ukraine end, is it fair, so to ask the question in your opinion, is it a plus for us or a minus for us? well, i can't comment on the actions of the congressmen of the united states, it's their right to ask any questions of the president of the united states, the part i'm going to take, or the secretary of defense of the united states, whoever they can ask, as far as we're concerned, i think that the issues that were directly related to ukraine in this letter are relevant to them from a military point of view, more from the military, partly from the political, from the military-political, answered the commander-in-chief of the armed forces in his interview, his column that he did for zaeco

state for reconstruction. thank you, ms. iryna, iryna afriz, people's deputy of ukraine, member of the verkhovna rada committee on national security, defenseith us and for...' we continue with military affairs, dana yarova, our next guest, member of the public anti-corruption council of the ministry of defense of ukraine, head of the non-governmental organization dream of children of ukraine. glory to ukraine, ms. dano, glory to the heroes, congratulations studio, congratulations ukraine. such information has appeared, this year the announcement of the ministry of defense for the first time will purchase active headphones, individual heaters for the armed forces of ukraine. previously, all this was done by volunteers, for the first time at the state level it should happen, for next year there is such a concept, it is good, i understand, yes, are there any pitfalls to look for? no, you know, actually, this is very good news, i didn't even expect it yesterday, to the number of soldiers who wrote that each of them bought such headphones individually, now thanks to the fact that it turned out to be transparent and economical , there are enough

states and nato, we will lose this war. he was unequivocal. secretary of defense austin told me clearly at last week's senate appropriations committee hearing that he agreed with zelenskyy. and secretary of state blinken added that such assistance is critical, in thwarting not just putin, but aggressors around the world are watching and gauging our sustained commitment. i agree completely. looking at the world today, i do not believe it is a stretch to say freedom is currently under siege and fighting for its future. right now, several democracies across the globe are fighting against tyrannical power. in some cases autocratic governments, in other terrorist organization that seek to undermine the global order. but this much is clear, democrat values are under siege, and the united states and our generation has a responsibility to act. two weeks ago, president biden requested $106 billion in supplemental funding for national security. this includes money to help supply ukraine with weapons to continue its valiant fight against russian aggression. it includes money to help israel defend itself against hamas, which on october 7 perpetrated the lar

documents required by law are in the state, and the fact that they do not know about it in the parliament, in particular in the committee on national security, defenseobably not a problem the military, and the politicians, so attempts to somehow call the military to some kind of responsibility do not look good. and one more question about changing approaches to mobilization, because the president said last week that this week there will be a concept, whether it's finalized or presented, about optimization of approaches, which means such changes in approaches to mobilization, it is about expanding the quantitative base of potential mobilized people there or about some deeper things that can have a larger-scale impact on the situation on the front line. i think, once again, politicians are confused. confusing the process of staffing the defense forces with personnel and mobilization processes, which are pre-planned and comprehensively provided measures for the transfer of state authorities and the national economy to functioning in military conditions time, no one said anything about it, so i think that an unclearly formed task will lead to an equally

in the senate appropriations committee, a meeting was held regarding the financial support of... the states of america and israel and what lloyd osin, the secretary of defensetates of america, said, he said that without the financial support of the united states and nato, the ukrainians may lose the war, that is, he is talking about possible loss of the war, if there is no help, let's listen to austin. i can guarantee that putin will succeed without our support. if we knock the ground out from under them now, putin will become. even stronger and will succeed in what he wants in the hobby sovereign territory of its neighbor. i think that if putin succeeds, he will not stop at ukraine. if you're a baltic country, you think i'm next, and you know, i have no doubt that sooner or later he'll challenge nato and we'll be in a shootout. mr. valery, who is he trying to convince, who still does not quite understand in the united states of america. why is the money given, why are such allocations going to the defense of ukraine? by the way, please pay attention, these are quite frank speeches, such as these in the open, with the door open, i listened, this is a commit
