[00:00:00] refusing to play hockey with Russians after our team returns to world sports, [00:00:04] what are they afraid of? They asked the greatest hockey [00:00:07] power Canada to follow their example: they bit [00:00:10] their tongue, in Russian schools they are confidently shortening foreign language [00:00:14] lessons, do we really not need English [00:00:17] anymore, and how will we communicate with new friends and [00:00:21] partners then? If you speak Russian, it's easier for you, you can ask [00:00:24] for directions, and I'm still going in circles, watch [00:00:27] our program. [00:00:42] Hello, this is the meeting place on NTV, the place where everything [00:00:45] becomes clear. I am Andrey Norkin, my colleague Ivan Trushkin, we [00:00:49] are live. Usually in our news blocks [00:00:52] Vanya talks about crazy refrigerators, [00:00:56] definite article "of" was forgotten but today somehow I got this news, the thing is that... [00:01:00] European press this morning found [00:01:03] the culprit of these cyberattacks on freezers [00:01:06] in dozens of EU countries, because of which, because of these [00:01:10] attacks, tons of products spoiled there. [00:01:13] So, what do they write? The hacker group [00:01:16] is called no name 057, associated with [00:01:20] the Kremlin. They do not provide evidence, well, [00:01:24] as you understand, the free democratic press [00:01:27] does not need any evidence. [00:02:30] We told you during our previous broadcast that the United [00:02:33] States, before the trilateral talks in Abu [00:02:36] Dhabi, USA, Russia and Ukraine, intend to meet [00:02:39] separately with Europeans in Brussels, we told you, well [00:02:43] please, today this meeting is taking place, [00:02:46] actually, we presented the participants here on our [00:02:50] screen, there are many flags, the World Bank, the European [00:02:53] Commission, Germany, France, Great Britain are separately [00:02:56] represented, well, in addition to them, actually the USA and Ukraine. [00:03:00] TASS agency and its sources in Brussels claim that [00:03:04] this series of consultations has not yielded any results [00:03:07] yet, what went wrong? As the final [00:03:11] statements showed, this Brussels internal meeting is held [00:03:14] under the motto "Everyone talks about their own thing". For example, [00:03:18] the European Commission, which, as you know, is headed by Euroführer Ursula [00:03:21] von der Leyen, is fiercely advocating for finding new funds for [00:03:25] Ukraine, and not for the reconstruction of the country, but apparently for [00:03:28] the continuation of hostilities. The only thing the so-called [00:03:32] President Zelensky could boast about was a conversation with Vitkov and Kushner, where he [00:03:36] again tried to beg for missiles for Patriot systems. Well, [00:03:39] finally, the hereditary Nazi Kaja Kallas came [00:03:42] out into the light of day, who also dragged in the results of the American [00:03:46] elections. [00:03:49] American voters clearly expressed their choice, [00:03:53] I hope that the new composition of Congress will continue to support Ukraine [00:03:57] and intensify pressure on Russia. Europe. The USA [00:04:00] will be much stronger together and will be able to jointly convey [00:04:03] signals to Russia. The terrorist Zelensky himself, [00:04:07] seeing these first data, the first figures in [00:04:10] support of American oppositionists, in support of Democrats, [00:04:14] engaged in his favorite activity, namely interference in the [00:04:17] internal affairs of the United States, appearing on the screens of [00:04:20] European television channels, he began to fiercely [00:04:23] praise the Democrats, who supposedly already promised him [00:04:27] a whole host of weapons, well, and new ones. [00:04:34] batches of weapons and mountains of missiles for Patriots, but this was only the beginning of dizziness from success. All Ukrainian press is now writing about Kyiv's plans to use [00:04:38] Democrats to hold entrepreneur Elon Musk, [00:04:41] who is close to Trump, accountable for allegedly personally [00:04:44] ordering the slowdown of Ukraine's Starlink satellite communication. According [00:04:48] to CNN, opponents of the White House in the Senate have already [00:04:51] taken the first steps and demanded that structures close to Musk [00:04:55] preserve all documents, all records. [00:04:58] документы, все записи. [00:05:12] power is dangerous, the concentration of power in one [00:05:16] person who doesn't have that much money is also [00:05:19] dangerous, this is the meaning of the separation [00:05:22] of powers, so that not everything is concentrated in [00:05:25] one person. American liberal [00:05:29] media are now trying to switch to new, although in reality [00:05:32] old rails, here for your attention, [00:05:36] a story even cooler than all sorts of Mask adventures, [00:05:39] facilitate nasal breathing and a fantastic [00:05:41] thriller about insidious Russian satellites [00:05:45] that are terrorizing the Western orbital group, [00:05:48] it all sounds, of course, interesting, this group [00:05:52] works for Ukraine, well, let's figure out how it all [00:05:55] really is. The first incident, according to Reuters, happened last [00:05:59] month. Then the Russian military satellite [00:06:01] Cosmos-2612, according to the agency, suddenly [00:06:05] approached a Finnish commercial apparatus, which transmits [00:06:08] data to Western intelligence agencies, understandably also to Ukraine. Allegedly. [00:06:12] The distance between the satellites decreased from several [00:06:15] hundred kilometers to several hundred meters, and [00:06:19] then increased again. Western experts immediately started shouting that Russia [00:06:23] had practiced an attack in space, that's how they interpreted the maneuvers of our [00:06:26] apparatus, now they are watching a couple of other [00:06:30] Russian satellites, which, again, according to foreign [00:06:33] observers, behave strangely, and allegedly [00:06:36] pursue the Western spy [00:07:12] spoke for the free democratic press and evidence, [00:07:16] whatever it may be, is no longer needed, and apparently, somehow the ability and necessity [00:07:19] to analyze any events, that is also generally not [00:07:34] ago, I definitely said that most likely the Republicans would lose [00:07:38] the elections, in general, many of our guests were even convinced that [00:07:41] they would lose. [00:08:42] won't be, here with the so-called [00:08:46] diesel deal, the Kremlin generally maintains [00:08:49] calm, in America some people got so [00:08:52] nervous that they say they will cancel this deal now, moreover, [00:08:56] there are forces that say it should be canceled, in general, there [00:09:08] Congress, Democrats triumphantly regained control of both the Senate and... [00:09:42] investigation, sue him use all available [00:09:46] legislative tools, to make it difficult [00:09:48] for him. Now Trump is a lame duck, [00:09:52] as it is customary to call presidents in the USA who are bound hand and [00:09:55] foot until the end of their term. Controlling [00:09:58] Congress Democrats will be able to enthusiastically cut budgets, block [00:10:02] laws proposed by the White House, arrange endless [00:10:06] hearings and investigations. Trump [00:10:08] himself reacted to the defeat of his party members in his signature [00:10:12] style. He published a picture of a red [00:10:15] baseball cap with the inscription "Veto" on social networks, and then went on air, [00:10:18] praised his opponents and promised to get along with them. [00:10:22] I'll probably get along with the Democrats. unless they want to act [00:10:26] destructively, but I have the right to veto, so if [00:10:29] we don't like what they do, or they, [00:10:32] they've already called and want to discuss some things, and [00:10:36] that's good. The New York Times noted a sharp change [00:10:40] in Trump's rhetoric. The president suddenly announced his readiness [00:10:44] to cooperate with Democrats, which was not the case before. This is attributed to [00:10:47] the threat of impeachment, the chances of which, according to bookmakers, [00:10:50] soared to 79%. [00:11:25] strategies leading to victory. While Trump [00:11:28] counts the days, Democrats are already anticipating a major revision of his [00:11:31] legacy and gleefully rubbing their hands. And first [00:11:35] of all, they will probably deal with the return of military and financial aid to [00:11:38] Ukraine, which Republicans regularly hindered for the last [00:11:42] 2 years. This means that aid packages [00:11:46] to Ukraine will be pushed through not in 9 months, but in 9 days [00:11:50] or 9 weeks, the signal to the Kremlin will be completely [00:11:53] different. Democrats have already criticized the White House's attempts [00:11:57] to discuss with Vladimir Putin the return of American [00:12:00] energy companies to Russia and the unfreezing of sovereign [00:12:03] funds. And also, according to forecasts, they intend to give Trump [00:12:06] a public dressing down for the recent diesel deal with Moscow. [00:12:10] The US Treasury's license that temporarily [00:12:13] allowed the import of Russian fuel into America [00:12:16] will surely be targeted. The fact that this will not be tolerated was clearly [00:12:20] demonstrated by New Jersey Governor Mikey [00:12:23] Sherrill. She on... [00:14:25] in order to overcome a presidential veto, 2/3 [00:15:01] you, how do you see the future of all these [00:15:04] relationships, well, first of all, it must be said that the defeat [00:15:07] of Republicans and Trump is partially a foreign policy [00:15:11] defeat for Russia, since for the last [00:15:15] year and a half we have always exclusively bet on [00:15:18] Trump, ignored Europe and thought that Trump [00:15:21] would squeeze Ukraine, we can then immediately clarify. [00:15:37] especially when some phone calls were discussed. [00:15:39] телефону [00:15:41] How could one hope for him in such circumstances? No, Vitkov tried to do this regarding, so to speak, [00:15:45] Ukraine and regarding Musk, you said in the previous program that he [00:15:49] is a loser. You will see that he becomes an even bigger loser [00:15:52] in Abu Dhabi next week, especially after [00:15:55] this meeting in Brussels, where it became [00:15:58] clear that Europe, so to speak, took a tough [00:16:02] stance and the Eurotroika will be present [00:16:04] in Abu Dhabi, which will not give [00:16:08] any, so to speak, chances, the Eurotroika will sit [00:16:12] at the negotiating table, she will not be at the negotiating table, but she will be present, she [00:16:15] will be present there constantly, [00:16:19] she will not allow Vitkov or Kushner to [00:16:22] advance anything. [00:16:25] I will immediately clarify, this all becomes possible only [00:16:28] because Trump has now lost [00:16:31] Congress, or would it all be the same, would it be [00:16:35] the same, if the houses. [00:16:53] Europe waited for their hour, they will just outlast Trump now, so [00:16:57] you think that's it, this moment has come, they outlasted him, another 2 [00:17:01] years is not needed, no, there is still time, Trump has 45 days left to do [00:17:05] something, but given that... any of his [00:17:08] actions, especially any radical ones, will create even [00:17:11] more problems, I don't think he will manage to do anything at all, and even more so [00:17:15] regarding Ukraine, well, in general, the position is clear, well, the position is clear, that we [00:17:19] are, as always, to blame for everything, so, let's [00:17:22] say, if we proceeded from the fact that now [00:17:26] Trump, Vitkov, Kushner will come, lift all sanctions, [00:17:30] who proceeded from this, I wanted to show [00:17:33] someone present, who proceeded from this, no one present, [00:18:07] to say that the Americans will remove themselves and generally [00:18:10] will try to do nothing, and not just put pressure on [00:18:14] Europe, I mean, step aside from all [00:18:18] this process, they have not left yet, that is, [00:18:21] what Trump can do, as the head of the executive branch, he still has all these [00:18:24] powers, Congress, [00:18:28] which was and Congress, which will be, it differs little [00:18:31] in terms of the Ukrainian issue, because even then a lion's share [00:18:34] of Republicans was. Unfortunately, [00:20:09] this is real and it's not about tens, but hundreds [00:20:12] of billions. Let me remind you that Trump inherited [00:20:15] 500 billion dollars, and [00:20:17] military-industrial corporations were losing money, Trump didn't [00:20:21] include him, actually it's about big money, they will [00:20:24] push it through, now that there isn't, wait a second, they will push it through when [00:20:27] Andrey Vladimirovich said there are 45 days, 27th [00:20:31] year, no, well, wait, as far as I understand, the seventh year is being passed [00:20:34] already. and these will be additional costs, it will all be additional [00:20:38] costs, of course, of course, they will just borrow this money from themselves [00:20:41] in a separate payment, yes, it's [00:20:45] not about the US budget for their functioning. [00:20:49] на их функциони. [00:22:20] there, let's say, Romanians say: buy our BMPs, your power will increase, [00:22:23] it doesn't fight anymore, robots fight, so we are not waiting for [00:22:27] any concessions from Ukraine, because no one will pressure [00:22:31] it and is not going to, they themselves, all those who used to pressure, would carry [00:22:34] their feet away, unfortunately, unfortunately Zelensky now considers himself [00:22:37] on top, he believes that, moreover, he will already squeeze Musk, [00:22:41] because problems have arisen for him in Texas and it is a question of him potentially being penalized [00:22:45] by tens of billions, well, and most importantly, Trump has now [00:22:48] been stripped of the opportunity. [00:24:20] levers, besides the veto, that was already [00:24:22] said, so, counteracting Congress's attempts [00:24:26] to obstruct, this is related to two important aspects: first, [00:24:30] it is known that the prerogative of conducting foreign policy primarily [00:24:33] belongs to the president, that is, in fact, Congress does not [00:24:37] have the right to engage in diplomacy on behalf of the president, Congress does not [00:24:41] have the right to withdraw American troops, say, from the Middle [00:24:45] East, Congress does not have the right to overturn a presidential order simply by voting [00:24:48] against it, a separate law is needed. It has [00:24:50] the right to adopt an additional funding package [00:24:56] for that very Ukraine, these packages did not exist under Trump. [00:24:59] It does, yes. This is the second point, [00:25:03] but the President's [00:25:05] powers include how to enforce the law. For [00:25:09] example, he can do it very slowly. This is the first [00:25:12] point. And another very important point is that now we will allocate money, now we [00:25:16] will buy weapons, yes, that's right, but to [00:25:18] acquire goods, the goods must be available. [00:25:22] Only 33-35% of pre-war [00:25:25] Patriot stocks are left for the US. They need to replenish their own. And the production cycle for one missile, this [00:25:29] P3, which shoots down ballistic missiles, is 42 months, [00:25:33] guys, you understand, they are now producing 5, 42 [00:25:36] months, yes, almost 2 years for one, yes, yes, [00:25:40] yes, more than 2 years, yes, yes, this is the production cycle, that [00:25:43] is, from order to delivery, absolutely seriously, the same with prisms, [00:25:47] yes, well that's how it is. [00:26:32] it's complicated, yes, if he fills anything [00:26:36] for himself, he filled it under [00:27:02] and... [00:32:11] becomes clear. We continue. Well, and let's say a couple more words about'. [00:33:15] even [00:33:15] more significant. [00:33:20] And without Germany, it is impossible, [00:33:22] impossible. Without you, freedom will certainly [00:33:26] suffer defeat. The European press is also rubbing [00:33:29] its hands, saying that the already small chances that the White House will force [00:33:33] Kyiv to agree to withdraw troops from Donbass are now approaching [00:33:36] zero. And the terrorist Zelensky and his European [00:33:40] patrons have no more reason to agree even to freeze [00:33:43] the conflict. And now. Ukrainian agenda may well return [00:33:47] inflated demands from reparations and immediate NATO membership [00:33:51] to a return to the 1991 borders. Democrats [00:33:55] very clearly speak about supporting Ukraine, about helping [00:33:58] Ukraine. They speak about restoring ties between [00:34:01] the United States and Europe. Therefore, there is hope that a balance [00:34:05] of power will be established and that we will receive more [00:34:08] support. And if Congress now speaks about strong [00:34:12] financial support or support in the form of, [00:34:15] as Europe is doing and demonstrating today, then [00:34:19] this will be a positive factor that will influence Putin. [00:34:23] In Brussels, they also poorly conceal their jubilation. [00:34:26] Diplomats call the defeat of the Republicans the beginning [00:34:29] of the end of the entire Trump era. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro [00:34:32] Sanchez, in joy, kicked the US president, stating that [00:34:35] Americans voted against hatred and populism. [00:34:39] German Defense Minister Pistorius calls the defeat of Trump's [00:34:42] party historical. The European Parliament, in the person of its [00:34:46] vice-president, also perked up, hoping for eternal [00:34:50] pro-Ukrainian and green solidarity of the renewed [00:34:52] Capitol. However, behind the scenes of this celebration of life, [00:34:56] the EU advises not to rush with champagne. Trump can become [00:34:59] angry and vindictive, he still has plenty of opportunities, [00:35:02] from accelerated withdrawal of US troops from Europe to [00:35:06] cutting NATO budgets. And do not forget, Donald Trump has already been impeached [00:35:10] twice and it did him no harm. He was re-elected to [00:35:13] his post. I think. the combination of words "political deadlock" will become key in [00:35:17] 2027 and 2028, [00:35:20] but in Europe, in a state of exhilaration, they are already taking out their own, [00:35:24] far from peaceful plan for Ukraine. According to SkyNews, [00:35:27] London and Paris are rushing to prepare a multinational mission [00:35:31] from eleven countries to send to Ukraine immediately after the end [00:35:35] of hostilities. British military, if the document is to be believed, will have the right [00:35:39] to return fire on Russian forces. French [00:35:42] fighters will patrol the sky, and... [00:36:15] This is too much for one country, Ukraine. Ivan [00:36:19] Sergeevich, I can't help but, no, did you read Tusk's explanation [00:36:22] about people with flashlights? No, so, [00:36:26] yesterday, or the day before yesterday. Now well, it doesn't matter, in general, a few days ago [00:36:29] troops along the Polish border were put on heightened [00:36:32] alert, Tusk made a separate statement about this. [00:36:36] He noticed people with flashlights [00:36:38] on our side of the border, that's dangerous, [00:36:42] yes, then he explains why there [00:36:46] was such a reaction, I don't know about people with flashlights, but the Poles [00:36:49] took it very seriously. Nevertheless, [00:36:53] I will return to the topic, Ivan Sergeevich. Are these [00:36:56] all the old, familiar Biden times coming back, right? Well, not exactly [00:37:00] Biden's times, let's be honest, Biden was still president, he [00:37:04] was a man with extraordinary powers, who at the same time [00:37:07] was generally on good terms with the European Union, [00:37:11] supported Ukraine, so the current situation, [00:37:14] well, when the president remains a Republican, you can't [00:37:18] call it that, it won't be like under Biden, I mean [00:37:21] billions, up to 100 billions a year [00:37:25] are sent. [00:37:57] Ukraine, the United States, and we, the Ukrainian delegation [00:38:01] says: "And we now generally don't want to discuss anything, [00:38:05] we are on top, you Americans, well, how is all this, well, with a high [00:38:08] degree of probability, it will be roughly like that, because that Eurotroika will be sitting behind [00:38:12] the doors, somewhere there they will be hiding in the toilet, no, [00:38:15] indeed Ukraine is now enthusiastic [00:38:19] about what is happening, in my opinion not entirely justified, it will be much [00:38:23] sharper, much less amenable to the American side, [00:38:26] counting on the fact that they will be able to assert their rights to [00:38:29] Trump through precisely the new upper and lower houses [00:38:32] of the United States of America, and this is the most important thing, in fact, they will [00:38:36] demand weapons, money, firstly, they will constantly annoy [00:38:39] him, most likely regarding weapons, money and everything [00:38:42] else, they will not be able to push Donald Trump, I think for him this is a red [00:38:46] line, he will not support Ukraine in this way and will do everything to prevent [00:38:50] this from happening, but what concerns sanction pressure on [00:38:54] the Russian Federation, and there is, sometimes, maybe the law [00:38:57] of terrorist and extremist Graham will begin to work in a minimal [00:39:01] dose, comfortable for Trump, but it will begin, because he [00:39:04] will have to, he will have to find compromises with the new leadership, [00:39:08] he will have to deal with this, for the simple reason that if they, [00:39:12] then, if he vetoes the law, they try to override this veto, but [00:39:15] it doesn't work out, they will simply come to a shutdown, they will not be able to go anywhere, [00:39:18] this is a shutdown in what, a shutdown is done if a [00:39:22] budget is adopted, the budget will be adopted now, it's clear, it's clear, but they will have, in any [00:39:26] case, this situation... changes, [00:39:39] there will be no radical change, they will just have a head-on collision, and that's how it will [00:39:43] happen, but there is, for example, we talked about [00:39:47] the deal, yes, the diesel deal, it will [00:39:50] certainly not be canceled now, the big question is whether it can be extended, but it will work [00:39:53] for now, but there's a nuance, there's a nuance, there is. [00:39:57] well, there are, for example, states in the United States that still, [00:40:01] for example, refuse [00:40:03] to buy that very, that very Russian product, because they [00:40:07] say, "we signed a document in twenty-two that says we can't [00:40:10] buy Russian energy carriers," [00:40:13] yes, well, they signed it, it works, yes, they say that there is this law, we will not [00:40:17] do it, we don't care what you have in your licenses, [00:40:21] there are more, I would like you to explain what you [00:40:24] see regarding Europe and Ukraine, how will [00:40:27] they behave there, Mikhail Vladimirovich, 5 cents about the law, it's really [00:40:31] from 2022, but the problem is that there's no diesel [00:40:34] shortage in the US, it's just expensive, so it's not [00:40:38] a fact that these tankers even went to the US. The thing is that they [00:40:41] issued a license, Congress, you can really say it contradicts the 2022 law, [00:40:45] you can't ship oil to the US, they weren't going to, but the Ministry of [00:40:49] Finance issued a license not only for the US market, but for the international [00:40:52] market. [00:41:27] we really like to reflect on what was said in the West, this is generally, I [00:43:43] Ukraine is not even second, not third, it's tenth, and not [00:43:47] a single candidate who goes to the 2028 [00:43:50] elections with the slogan "I will support Ukraine" will win anything there, [00:43:54] because Americans are only interested in their own problems, so if [00:43:57] the Democrats start seriously playing this story again, the Republicans will bury [00:44:01] them there, just as they buried Biden, [00:44:05] so here's another question, we are completely faced with the fact that it [00:44:08] plays some role. In fact, the story of the excessive [00:44:12] in Kyiv and the reaction of the West to this complete absence of [00:44:15] reaction played a bigger role in the American elections, on the one hand, on [00:44:19] the one hand, they saw inside the Ukrainian regime, which first [00:44:23] of all imprisoned those who actually publicly revealed it, and the West, [00:44:26] which said that it was a military dormitory, so here's what I, unfortunately, [00:44:30] it turns out that I am repeating after Sergey Viktorovich and Dmitry Anatolyevich, but until you [00:44:34] break this regime, all talks about you [00:44:37] reaching some kind of deal are absolutely useless. They were looking for money, [00:46:10] they tried to allocate [00:46:20] something new, they didn't find any, the Ukrainians urgently asked for money, they were told, [00:46:23] sorry, we already owe you from the last loan, where will they get the money, they are [00:46:27] borrowing it, they have money to borrow, they don't have [00:46:31] as much money as Zelensky asks for, but they have enough [00:46:34] money to keep him afloat, they asked for more than 30 [00:46:37] billion, so what, did they wait? First, [00:46:41] Ukraine's [00:46:45] desires were and remain, second, Europe's desires [00:46:49] were and remain desires for Europe, what? [00:47:04] As for the peace track, the peace track is now being promoted, [00:47:08] well, yes, we asked Trump to put pressure on Europe, he couldn't do [00:47:11] it then, he won't be able to now, the peace track is now only [00:47:15] promoting the decommunization of the Ukrainian economy, which [00:47:18] we are engaged in, not Donald Trump, not Europe, and not the American [00:47:22] Congress. [00:54:06] and this is the meeting place on NTV, a place where everything becomes clear, well, by the way, [00:54:09] about predictability, about the expectability of some [00:54:13] things, here's a completely expected reaction to [00:54:16] the decision of the sports arbitration [00:54:19] court, about the return of our hockey [00:54:22] team to international competitions, well, the reaction of [00:54:26] Western media, Western politicians, well, [00:54:28] the tone was set by the International Hockey [00:54:31] Federation, which immediately after the decision... in [00:54:35] Lausanne, announced that it did not agree with this decision at all, but [00:54:38] of course, was forced to comply with it, but then national federations [00:54:42] came into play, for whom, apparently, the law is not [00:54:46] written, already seven European countries have announced that they will [00:54:48] boycott matches with the Russian national team if our athletes [00:54:52] are allowed to compete, the Norwegians justified this by saying that [00:54:56] playing against Russians threatens, I quote, the psyche and [00:54:59] safety of hockey players, here in Latvia they reminded that [00:55:03] sports rivalry with our country is [00:55:06] illegal, this was decided from 2024, [00:55:09] the ban at the state level somehow strengthens their [00:55:13] position, that's what they think, the countries [00:55:16] hosting tournaments are not waiting for Russians, Canada [00:55:19] announced that it will not issue visas for our hockey players in [00:55:23] December, and the Germans are even ready to refuse to host the World Championship, [00:55:27] just so that Russia is not there. [00:55:30] Russia and Belarus support an illegal, unjustified, [00:55:34] appalling. [00:56:05] This is actually confirmed by the International Hockey Federation. Moreover, [00:56:08] if our team is allowed to [00:56:11] compete, and some country says: no, we boycott [00:56:15] Russians and don't play the match, then our country is awarded [00:56:18] a technical victory with a score of 5:0. [00:56:22] Of course, this arrangement does not suit Europeans either, because who [00:56:26] doesn't like to win? Now they want the European Commission to ban [00:56:29] our athletes from coming to Europe [00:56:32] at all. It's funny that... [00:56:38] it comes from traditional favorites of hockey competitions, Sweden and Finland, they are asking Brussels for permission [00:56:42] to refuse to issue visas (quote: based on the [00:56:45] applicant's citizenship), that is, Russians will not be able [00:56:49] to visit Europe simply because they [00:56:51] are Russians. It would seem that discrimination is [00:56:55] obvious, but no, here the High Representative, [00:56:58] the High Commissioner of the UN for Human [00:57:01] Rights, firmly and clearly [00:57:04] states: we see no [00:57:06] discrimination here, allegedly refusing [00:57:10] to play with the Russian team is the exercise of the right [00:57:14] to freedom of opinion, and nothing more, at the same time... the [00:57:17] UN somehow said that they did not have information [00:57:21] about the reasons for the European boycott. I, Andrey Vladinovich, have [00:57:24] repeatedly said that I do not share all sorts of delights [00:57:27] regarding the return or decisions of some courts, that we are allegedly being [00:57:31] returned somewhere. Maybe I am not right, but Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev [00:57:45] win in international courts. [00:58:57] had a choice, there were two languages, well, there were [00:59:01] some exceptions, some schools, where French might [00:59:04] suddenly appear, but otherwise it was English and German, [00:59:08] mostly everyone chose English, but [00:59:12] it doesn't matter, there were still two lessons a week, so [00:59:15] lately, as far as I understand... [00:59:47] diligently master English grammar, learn words and [00:59:51] refine pronunciation, but from this year everything changed. [00:59:54] The Ministry of Education cut the total volume of foreign language classes by [00:59:58] 102 hours. The main blow was taken by fifth and [01:00:01] seventh grades, left with two lessons a week, [01:00:05] instead of three. The mandatory second language was also removed [01:00:08] from the curriculum, the number of teachers decreased, and [01:00:11] the number of students per teacher increased. When 30 [01:00:14] people try to speak English at once in one room. [01:01:25] reform. With two hours a week, schoolchildren will forget words [01:01:28] faster than they move on to the next topic. Lessons [01:01:31] will become a mere formality, and the best teachers are already [01:01:35] packing their bags for private [01:01:37] tutoring. However, all this has already happened in Soviet [01:01:41] times. Then in an ordinary school foreign languages were taught for just [01:01:45] 2 hours a week. [01:02:17] our community, the USSR, no one particularly [01:02:21] traveled anywhere, did not strive abroad, but [01:02:24] then in my time this iron curtain slowly [01:02:28] began to crumble, England. we tried, we [01:02:32] studied, today there are no more elite language special schools, [01:02:35] if you want to study a language in depth, welcome to a private [01:02:39] paid school. However, other experts do not see [01:02:43] a tragedy in this, because it is the 21st century. Just recently, to translate [01:02:46] a foreign text, you had to cram English for hours. Now [01:02:50] it's enough to point the camera, and the neural network will translate everything in [01:02:54] real time, and it will also write a letter, explain [01:02:57] slang, and even say everything for you. Neither teachers, [01:03:01] nor children, nor parents clearly understand why [01:03:04] English is needed, well, it seems to be needed for general education, well, [01:03:08] how so, and if you ask specifically, what is the specific goal, no one will know [01:04:30] question, four answer options: yes, this is a sign of an educated [01:04:34] person, rather yes, we need to develop tourism and [01:04:37] business ties, third, rather no, in life [01:04:40] it is rarely useful, [01:04:43] useful, also some clumsy word, and fourth, [01:04:47] no, we don't need culture, the language [01:05:00] why a foreign language is important, [01:05:03] why it is important, I don't know, for [01:05:06] me, there are so many reasons why it's not [01:05:08] important, well, for example, I'm flying to Bashkiria, my [01:05:12] constituency, [01:05:14] I buy a ticket, for example, from Sheremetyevo and not a single word [01:05:18] in Russian, not a single one, what are [01:05:21] you, guys, where do we live, in English, what, [01:05:24] exactly, everything there is exactly like that, they announce [01:05:27] on the plane, in Russian and... [01:05:30] English, it feels like we're flying to London, you know, not to [01:05:33] Bashkiria, why can't they announce in Bashkir in the end, [01:05:47] Voronezh, the same thing in English, is there a [01:05:51] Voronezh language or something for you, no, what does that have to do with the Voronezh language, [01:05:54] why would I need it there, are there a lot of Englishmen sitting there, I don't know, maybe [01:05:58] it's actually. [01:06:09] so to speak, a law about signs that should be [01:06:13] in Russian there, now, otherwise you walk along Tverskaya and there was not a single word [01:07:39] we are now talking about languages, these are normal sciences, naturally. and [01:07:42] this is a question of this creeping submission to the West, where [01:07:46] they instill in you such soft power, like here, look, [01:09:16] a flight to Bashkiria, well, there's one [01:09:19] problem, English is not only spoken by [01:09:23] Englishmen, and it's not made for Englishmen, for example, I can well [01:09:26] imagine that an Indian businessman was on [01:09:29] that plane, to negotiate oil supplies with the [01:09:33] Bashkir company Bashneft, this is for him, this is for some [01:09:36] from Arab countries, and the Chinese also conduct very important [01:09:40] negotiations with us. [01:11:12] who studied to be a welder, a welder will not deal with such [01:11:16] contracts, preparation, these are people who [01:11:19] will still learn, I mean, you don't have to [01:11:22] do it, it's just with such a logic, a welder doesn't [01:11:25] need chemistry or biology, again I repeat, Andrey Vladimirovich, this is [01:12:12] and signs in a language he doesn't understand, it's like we walk around [01:12:16] Tbilisi or Yerevan, and there are restaurant [01:12:19] names written in their alphabet, we wanted to go to [01:13:03] just in foreign languages, in English, such a quantity, because again, it was necessary to [01:13:06] get foreign currency loans, it was necessary to appease the council, but it [01:13:10] was really a political opportunism, the question is different, did it [01:13:13] help us much, well, someone can answer, did it [01:13:28] general level of cultural development, does it not [01:13:31] bother you, as a Russian citizen, that our [01:13:35] compatriots, when they go abroad to friendly [01:13:39] countries, like Thailand, they can't [01:13:41] say anything, they just can't, [01:14:25] Chinese relations, it does not prevail today, it is not [01:14:28] decisive, and moreover, this is a global trend, because [01:14:31] today all world civilizations, if they still remained within their framework, they are [01:14:35] afraid of this globalization, which today breaks down frameworks, and [01:14:39] specific globalization, with Indians, our number [01:14:42] two partner, you know, we will find a common language with Indians, it works [01:15:55] what's interesting is that native speakers, i.e. people who live in countries where English is [01:15:58] the official language, are only about 390 million, less than [01:16:01] 1/3, which means that English is the language we [01:16:05] can use to talk to Latin America, Southeast Asia, with [01:16:08] a huge number of trade partners, as we just discussed, another [01:16:12] interesting picture, if you look at the number of, for example, scientific [01:16:14] publications, then in English there are scientific publications in the world, [01:16:18] there are some differences by industry, in some industries, for example, natural sciences, [01:16:22] the same engineering and so on and so forth and [01:17:25] says, we are talking about reducing the base, well, but if we talk about the political side, then [01:17:28] the political side is very simple, all talks about it being the language of the enemy, that this [01:17:32] should not be, it's one hundred percent the same talks that were in Ukraine, for example, in [01:17:36] eighteen, nineteen, when they talked about banning the Russian language, there should be [01:17:39] Ukrainian, it's one hundred percent a copy, maybe they are [01:17:43] doing it with good intentions, but they are no different, what this leads to we already [01:17:46] see, [01:17:50] you don't understand anything, it's completely different, Ukraine and [01:17:54] Russia. need to [01:18:53] eliminate the problem, everything will be [01:23:33] becomes clear. We continue to ask a very simple [01:23:37] question today, but in our own language: does a Russian [01:23:40] person need to learn English? We offer you four [01:23:43] answer options. Yes, this is a sign of an educated [01:23:47] person. Rather, yes, we need to develop tourism. [01:24:20] Igor has been retired for a long time, but cannot imagine his life without [01:24:24] the English [01:24:25] language, [01:24:30] television, some reviews, articles, communication [01:24:33] with young people, just communication, moreover, communication with his daughter, [01:24:37] who moved to the United States quite a long time ago, I don't know if he speaks [01:24:41] English with his daughter or with his grandchildren already in English, nevertheless, many reproach you, Andrey [01:24:44] Vladim, in our comments, [01:24:48] that French was taught in many schools, and you just don't know, if [01:24:52] you don't know, it's not a fact that it wasn't there, in principle, yes, French was more [01:24:56] widespread than German, in schools there was more German than [01:24:59] French, when I studied it was like that, so what about me, we are of the same [01:25:03] age, let the old-timers continue to argue, and we [01:25:06] will continue with the comments, yes Elena writes, [01:25:10] a foreign language should be learned by choice, but Elena's grandson [01:25:13] finds the language difficult, and his mother does [01:25:16] his English for him, well, I found geometry difficult. and [01:25:20] physics was even harder for me. [01:25:23] Lyolya, learn Chinese, the hegemon [01:25:26] has changed. That's how it is. Igor, all [01:25:30] science, all scientific articles, technical literature, all of it is in [01:25:33] English. Sergey believes that if you are not a sailor [01:25:37] or a programmer, you don't need English. And I also [01:25:41] had a good comment from Larisa. Larisa [01:25:44] writes to us from Surgut, she claims that there are two [01:25:48] in the medical college. [01:26:20] how will these friendly people navigate, for example, in [01:26:23] the subway or in transport, because there was English there anyway, [01:26:27] and now there is less [01:26:29] of it, [01:26:32] we got used to English signs, pointers and audio announcements after the 2018 [01:26:35] World Cup, but [01:26:39] a few years ago they suddenly started quietly disappearing, Moscow was the first sign, [01:26:43] Latin script was erased from transport schemes in the subway, and the cheerful [01:26:47] English voice was turned off, they explained. then it was about caring for [01:26:51] passengers, extra letters overload and interfere, yes, against [01:26:54] the background of sanctions, English was moved to the category of an unfriendly [01:26:58] language, well, it will be much clearer, for a Russian person, [01:27:02] what is written to me, sometimes I just look and think, damn, I don't [01:27:06] understand, to be honest, even now, such a trend has begun, that we are moving more towards a [01:27:09] traditional, [01:27:13] Russian approach and signs are starting to be in Russian, all this [01:27:16] Americanization has already gotten so annoying, however... this [01:27:20] medal quickly revealed its reverse side. In the capital, [01:27:23] tourists from India, Iran and the Emirates found it more difficult [01:27:26] to figure out where to go now? And the Moscow [01:27:29] subway became more like a labyrinth for them, because it's difficult for [01:27:33] a foreigner to understand without outside help which of [01:27:37] the five Cyrillic arrows leads to the exit, and which to a transfer. [01:27:41] Guests stand frozen in the subway, letter by letter comparing inscriptions with [01:27:44] a picture on their phone to get to the hypothetical Park Kultury. In [01:27:48] large airports or at... Although [01:28:03] I already used the subway last year, you can still [01:28:06] get lost, as usual, the most important thing is to know [01:28:09] the language, if you can speak Russian, it's much [01:28:13] easier for you, you can ask for directions from people, they will tell you the [01:28:17] direction, the main thing is to know at least a little Russian [01:28:20] and be able to read inscriptions, so we are still going in [01:28:24] circles. Even St. Petersburg, which always [01:28:26] prided itself on being the European facade, is quietly changing [01:28:29] its priorities. In the subway, Latin script is still preserved. but in ground [01:28:33] transport, on street signs it has been removed. In tourist [01:28:36] Krasnodar, Yaroslavl or Pskov, it was legally [01:28:40] mandated to translate all facade signs to the native language, otherwise a fine. [01:28:44] Kazan is not far behind, once developing multilingualism. There, [01:28:47] after the Universiade and the BRICS summit, signs were duplicated [01:28:51] in three languages: Russian, English and Tatar. [01:28:54] Now English has been removed. And for a guest from Delhi or Istanbul, [01:28:58] the inscription "Bowman u Ramyna Chigu", that is, exit. The city [01:29:41] environment repels [01:29:44] not only Americans, but also much more friendly Indians, the same [01:29:48] story with guests from the Emirates, Saudi Arabia [01:29:51] or Qatar, the most desirable clients of expensive hotels [01:29:54] in Moscow and St. Petersburg. I [01:29:57] left the dormitory, went to the subway, I didn't know [01:30:01] where exactly I wanted to go. [01:30:25] We need to talk to them somehow, maybe help someone in the subway, well, some knowledge of English [01:30:29] is necessary, well, to begin with. [01:31:32] Be it known to you that the enemy's language, like the German [01:31:36] language in the Great Patriotic War, [01:31:39] was a surprise for Hitler's Blitzkrieg [01:31:43] planners, because at least [01:31:46] 20-25% [01:31:49] of the Red Army's personnel spoke German. [01:31:52] When I was making a film about Vladimir Abramovich Etush, he told me that [01:31:56] first he crawled with a Maxim machine gun, and then, as [01:31:59] a graduate of a regular Moscow school, he was taken into military intelligence. [01:32:03] He took prisoners, interrogated them, Roman Vladimirovich, well, [01:32:06] understand, we don't have a war with Germany now, [01:32:09] military actions are simply [01:32:11] hostile, [01:32:15] well, English, because well, pragmatic [01:32:18] here, it's about something else, it's about [01:32:21] something else, you have a special school, as I understand it, right? [01:32:24] Yes, then you built your career, including [01:32:27] a creative one, using the [01:32:30] knowledge you had. [01:33:02] the system is formed on [01:33:05] the basis of heard linguistic [01:33:07] categories, so up to 3 years, in any [01:33:11] case, it develops our neural network, what we [01:33:14] hear, bilinguals, people who speak two [01:33:18] languages, they are, relatively speaking, smarter, they [01:33:22] have a more complex worldview, they are more adaptable, [01:33:25] pay attention, Mayakovsky himself, he is bilingual, [01:33:29] he knew Georgian perfectly, Pushkin began to learn English. [01:33:32] incredibly, terribly he spoke it, but [01:33:36] in order to study in the original, and not from a French translation, [01:33:39] Geoffrey Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales, it [01:33:43] develops the neural network. Knowledge [01:33:45] dead weight, it developed our brains, the ability of physics, chemistry and other [01:33:47] subjects unnecessary for our future lives, including [01:33:50] welders, in the Soviet model, was not for the purpose [01:33:54] of these knowledge accumulating as [01:34:00] to adapt to life, now in conditions of total [01:34:03] uncertainty, this is very difficult, and as for the enemy's [01:34:07] language, I will still react to this, colleagues, [01:34:10] in Soviet times, in the ninth grade, in German lessons... I quoted [01:34:14] what [01:34:17] I heard on the enemy's voice, Deutsche Welle. They [01:34:20] dragged me to the principal. Question: how could you, a Soviet [01:34:24] Komsomol schoolboy, listen to enemy voices? I said: of course, [01:34:27] I listen. Why? Because I need to know [01:34:30] what our enemies think of us, and Hazenko again got out of it. As a result, this [01:34:34] predetermined my military career in German. The promise was, [01:34:38] of course, and moreover, I was on an exchange in Cologne [01:34:42] at Deutsche Welle, the international broadcaster. [01:35:45] and knows it at almost native speaker level, I am watching a very interesting analysis, the native speaker [01:35:48] sat and said how cool Putin still speaks German, because he [01:35:52] probably continues to interrupt, dear friends, [01:35:55] let's learn a foreign or Russian language, [01:35:58] what [01:36:13] Sber. [01:36:45] on Avito, on Avito came [01:36:48] Hvatamba. There are many real [01:36:51] discounts, everyone gets enough [01:36:53] goods, top goods, the price is right, a good story [01:36:57] came out, grab headphones and a down jacket on Hvatamba for 99 [01:37:01] rubles.

Should a Russian [01:40:33] person learn English, we ask [01:40:36] you. Answer the question, please, comment, and [01:40:39] in the meantime, let's take a short trip to [01:40:42] countries where many [01:40:46] people live, and these countries are quite popular in [01:40:50] terms of tourism, but your [01:40:54] knowledge of English will probably not help [01:40:58] you much. What, no, not like that, let's [01:41:02] watch the story, let's go, the story, come on, give the story to Ivan [01:41:05] Sergeevich. Japan is a technological [01:41:09] power, but in the world ranking of English proficiency, it's falling to [01:41:12] the very bottom. Although Japanese diligently learn the language in school, [01:41:16] the peculiarities of national phonetics deprive them of the gift [01:41:19] of speech when meeting foreigners. As a result, Western [01:41:22] specialists don't go there, working in an environment where everything is in [01:41:25] hieroglyphs, and colleagues are silent. There are few takers, a tourist [01:41:29] route outside central Tokyo turns into a quest, explain with [01:41:33] gestures or turn on Google Translate. As a result, [01:41:36] the country mentally remains the same closed island. [01:41:40] Even very educated Japanese may [01:41:43] practically not speak English. If you study [01:41:46] in Japan, almost all necessary information can be [01:41:50] found in Japanese. In a bookstore, almost all books [01:41:52] will also be in [01:41:55] Japanese. Turkey. Despite the ambitions of a regional leader [01:41:59] and a huge population, it also cannot boast mass [01:42:02] language proficiency. Outside resort areas, English [01:42:06] becomes an exotic language. A similar situation exists in Brazil, [01:42:09] the largest economy in South America. Portuguese remains [01:42:13] the main language of everyday life, only 5% of the population [01:42:16] speaks English. Both have large domestic markets, [01:42:20] music, and cinema that allow people to live, study, and work almost without leaving [01:42:24] their linguistic space. Here [01:42:27] there is practically no acute everyday need for the English [01:42:30] language. Brazil has a rich own culture. [01:42:34] Music, cinema, television. Most people simply do not need [01:42:37] foreign media. A person can live their whole life almost [01:42:41] never hearing people speak English naturally. [01:42:44] In China, things are, to put it mildly, not [01:42:48] very good with English. In the world ranking, the PRC holds its position in the group of countries [01:42:51] with a low level, letting almost all of Asia from [01:42:54] Malaysia to Vietnam pass ahead. An average Chinese [01:42:58] person may never encounter the need to say a single word [01:43:01] in English. In the business districts of Shanghai and [01:43:04] Beijing, you will certainly meet fluent [01:43:07] speakers, but if you step aside and try to talk to [01:43:10] a shopkeeper, it's unlikely to work out. [01:43:14] China's economy is not built around foreigners, it is oriented towards [01:43:17] China itself and Chinese consumers. So why should an ordinary [01:43:21] taxi driver or a hotel manager spend years [01:43:24] perfecting English, if this language is practically [01:43:27] never needed? It would seem logical that the second economy [01:43:31] of the world should impose its language, just as [01:43:34] the USA promoted English, but if [01:43:37] they aggressively give their language to the world for free through [01:43:40] applications, YouTube, videos and international grants, then China [01:43:44] went its own way, its Confucius Institutes [01:43:48] are quite closed, Beijing [01:43:51] does not create understandable digital platforms for [01:43:54] beginners, cultural export is equal to a statistical error, [01:43:58] and local cinema is understood only by the Chinese themselves, if you want [01:44:02] to speak Chinese, be kind enough to pay huge money to [01:44:04] tutors, surround yourself with books and spend at least [01:44:08] 5 years on it, as a logisticians, buyers and [01:44:18] the countries mentioned in the story, only in China it was impossible [01:44:21] to communicate in English, absolutely no way, well, maybe you were in other [01:44:25] countries in, well, in some such [01:44:27] civilizational centers where there is tourism, in civilizational [01:44:31] centers, and what is it like if you go off the street, well, mainly capitals, [01:44:35] yes, well, if you go off the main avenue somewhere to the side, it's not a fact that [01:44:38] there, Alexander Nikolaevich, honestly speaking, your position is a surprise [01:44:42] to me today, because I thought that you would be [01:44:46] for - learning foreign languages in large [01:44:49] volumes, and you are kind of against it, and I am kind [01:44:52] of against it, so, as an [01:44:55] introduction, one question, for the connoisseurs, as they say: [01:44:58] how many hours a week did [01:45:27] Spain and practically no one speaks English [01:45:31] in Germany except Berlin, proven by personal [01:45:35] experience, in Berlin it's easier to find [01:45:38] a Russian speaker than... [01:47:40] people don't need this in their lives, well, they don't need it, [01:47:43] simply physically, [01:47:46] and for general development, there is a huge layer [01:47:49] of English usage, related to [01:47:53] computer technologies, aha, [01:47:57] even with knowledge of English, [01:47:59] it's not very [01:48:01] clear what they're saying to me, [01:57:16] On NTV's Meeting Place, now I will carefully [01:57:20] connect my unused mathematical [01:57:23] knowledge. So, should a Russian person learn English? [01:57:27] Look what we got. 36% rather [01:57:29] yes, need to develop tourism, business ties, this is the [01:57:32] winning option, to which it [01:57:36] caught up, added 1%, yes, this is a [01:57:39] sign of an educated person, the last [01:57:43] option categorically no, about the enemy, it lost [01:57:46] 1% during the discussion, that is, those who are for [01:57:50] learning, they won more and more, I will start with a comment from [01:57:54] Fedor, Fedor is a participant of the SVO, and he writes to us that [01:57:58] he served in a battalion where there were volunteers from different [01:58:02] countries, and he writes, of course, English is needed, because otherwise [01:58:43] she studied English 2 hours a week, studied [01:58:46] fruitlessly, this was still Soviet times, then she started [01:58:50] working in a computing center, where all commands [01:58:53] everything, everything, everything was in English, and despite the fact that she [01:58:56] didn't know it, Zhanna became [01:59:05] I would like to, writes our viewer, not wrote down the name, I [01:59:08] would really like both myself and [01:59:11] my daughter to know English, Arabic and Chinese, [01:59:15] but so far only English is working out, because to learn the other languages [01:59:19] you need to spend some money. We also [01:59:22] have Irina, from Surgut, by the way, I think [01:59:25] it's not in the Moscow time zone, if I remember correctly, yes, so they [01:59:29] watch us online, that's great, Surgut, Irina writes to [01:59:32] us that the announcement [01:59:35] in English at the station is twice [01:59:37] as long as in Russian. I wonder why [01:59:41] specifically in Surgut English, [02:00:08] Russians are backward will regret it, we were not talking about Russians, but [02:00:12] specific [02:00:12] deputies, [02:00:16] don't take everything, don't take it personally. [02:00:52] They disrupted logistics, stopped a dry cargo ship with military equipment, [02:00:55] the results of the Russian army's night work on the enemy's rear and...
