[00:00:51] for this
[00:00:51] hour.
[00:01:08] The Yugoslav crisis was caused by political means in order for
[00:01:12] NATO troops to for the first time in history go beyond their zone
[00:01:15] of responsibility. After that, the
[00:01:19] catastrophe began. The war in Bosnia and
[00:01:22] Herzegovina claimed the lives of 100 thousand
[00:01:25] people. The West quarreled us, damn it. Unfortunately,
[00:01:29] we fell for it.
[00:01:32] What is happening now in Ukraine is very reminiscent
[00:01:35] of the events that took place in the territory of former
[00:01:38] Yugoslavia. The leitmotif of all this is
[00:01:42] the desire to block Russia's path to Europe.
[00:03:19] Now, briefly about the main news for this
[00:03:21] hour: In the Kharkiv region, where approximately
[00:03:25] 1,500 Ukrainian militants remain surrounded, our military
[00:03:28] systematically hits fortified positions.
[00:03:37] Europe is in shock over Kyiv's new demands, writes The Washington Post.
[00:03:40] Ukraine has requested another 27 billion from the EU. The publication
[00:03:44] notes that European officials naively believed that by sending
[00:03:48] 100 billion euros earlier, they had covered all the needs of the Ukrainian budget
[00:03:51] for at least 2 years. A
[00:03:54] oil tanker was blown up by mines in the Armus Strait, Iran reports.
[00:03:57] The US does not confirm this information.
[00:04:00] Khir again reminded that negotiations will not happen until
[00:04:03] Washington fulfills Tehran's conditions. He announced a new
[00:04:07] attack by American drones on fishing vessels off the coast
[00:04:10] of the Islamic Republic.
[00:04:13] In Chinese Hainan, flooding after heavy rain has led to the emergency
[00:04:17] evacuation of more than 40,000 people. In the island's cities,
[00:04:20] transport is not running, enterprises are stopped, and
[00:04:23] schools are closed.
[00:04:28] what targets were hit last night as a result
[00:04:32] of group strikes in the Odesa region. Among the targets were the logistics center
[00:04:36] of Velikaya Balka, where military cargo arriving in
[00:04:39] Ukraine from abroad was stored. In the port of Chornomorsk, a
[00:04:43] dry cargo ship and a ferry were hit. In the regions in the west of the country,
[00:04:46] railway infrastructure was hit. Transport was used to transport
[00:04:50] cargo for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. According to Ukrainian media, explosions also
[00:04:53] thundered in Odesa, Chernihiv, and Kharkiv regions. It is worth
[00:04:56] noting that our military precisely disables.
[00:05:12] The FSB administration for the DPR showed footage of the destruction of AFU
[00:05:16] drones. Six Ukrainian drones were shot down, which tried
[00:05:20] to attack Donetsk and Makiivka. The devices were
[00:05:23] successfully detected thanks to the Kupol
[00:05:25] Donbass system.
[00:05:30] Well, now a new story of courage of our participants in the
[00:05:33] special operation. A fighter with the call sign Rezvy from the St.
[00:05:36] George brigade was seriously wounded, but managed to reach
[00:05:40] his own. Comrades supported him with drones,
[00:05:44] dropping him food and medicines. Egor Grigoriev
[00:05:48] will continue the topic.
[00:05:51] A group of soldiers from the St. George brigade was tasked
[00:05:54] with conducting reconnaissance in the area, to engage the enemy in
[00:05:58] battle, and to take his positions.
[00:06:02] The fire impact began almost immediately against
[00:06:05] two of our soldiers. The enemy used artillery and
[00:06:08] attack drones. In
[00:06:11] an interview with our colleagues from arti, a private with the call sign
[00:06:15] Rezvy, said that the approach to the tree line was
[00:06:19] strewn with mines.
[00:06:21] I saw a tree in the field, a large, not small, tree
[00:06:25] with a crown, and decided that I needed to run to that tree. I ran about
[00:06:29] 150 meters, and then stepped on a mine. My right leg
[00:06:32] was blown off, well, my foot was torn off. My left leg also
[00:06:36] had shrapnel, and there was shrapnel in my back. Well, I hopped on one leg
[00:06:39] to that tree and made contact.
[00:06:45] At the control point, they immediately understood
[00:06:49] that there was no time to delay. Rezvy needed help. They sent a drone,
[00:06:53] which located the soldier's position. A second drone
[00:06:56] organized the delivery of water and
[00:06:58] medicine.
[00:07:01] We delivered provisions using an airplane type, loaded 7
[00:07:04] kg of provisions, and also dropped, well,
[00:07:07] we dropped by kilogram, by two cigarettes, water and so on,
[00:07:11] also delivered. Even optical fiber was delivered directly so that it was
[00:07:14] right next to him, so that he tried to expose himself less and so on. That is,
[00:07:18] optical fiber landed right next to the wounded man, exactly, yes, and we delivered
[00:07:21] batteries, tied
[00:07:23] medicines.
[00:07:26] Is it worth clarifying what pain Rezvy
[00:07:30] experienced, how much blood he lost, but not
[00:07:33] hope? The commanders had an important task: to keep
[00:07:36] the wounded warrior conscious and constantly in contact
[00:07:40] with him, the Ministry of Defense. They dropped me water, medicine
[00:07:44] there, food, there, well,
[00:07:46] I got fixed up, injected myself with painkiller. We'll drop you
[00:07:50] something to drink, everything will work out for you, you'll have something to drink, you'll drink,
[00:07:53] you'll bandage up, you'll rest, you'll contact
[00:07:56] me, we'll plan our operation, but
[00:07:59] you must crawl,
[00:08:01] brother.
[00:08:04] And he crawled through the pain again across
[00:08:08] the minefield, 1.5 km, 800-900.
[00:08:11] Can you hear me, Rezvy? Well done, handsome, handsome,
[00:08:15] you have plenty of strength, you are doing this excellently,
[00:08:19] the whole country is watching you live
[00:08:20] on air. The enemy, it seems,
[00:08:24] assumed that our warrior was wounded, but
[00:08:27] was late. The AFU drones flew in when Rezvy
[00:08:31] was already at the more or
[00:08:34] less safe point designated by the commanders.
[00:08:37] He crawled to the canal, and just at that time the enemy
[00:08:41] began to examine these places with the help of his little birds. He
[00:08:45] slipped away, thank God he was not noticed. Further on,
[00:08:48] he was evacuated by ATVs to his
[00:08:52] position, they have a position there, and there they stabilized
[00:08:55] my health.
[00:08:58] Private Rezvy admits that thoughts of his mother and
[00:09:01] daughter, whose photo he always carries with
[00:09:05] him, gave him strength. On my
[00:09:08] phone I have pictures of my daughter, yes, I constantly looked at
[00:09:12] my daughter's picture, I understood that this is my child, that I am doing it for her, my mother
[00:09:16] was very worried, well, plus the commander constantly
[00:09:20] told me, remember your daughter, she
[00:09:21] needs you.
[00:09:24] His daughter will soon see her hero dad,
[00:09:28] Private Rezvy is recovering in the hospital.
[00:09:30] This story is not just
[00:09:34] a story of rescue, but an example of true military
[00:09:38] brotherhood, the wisdom of commanders and hope
[00:09:41] that is stronger than fear.

[00:14:53] Now we will show new footage that is literally filling social media:
[00:14:57] the consequences of Russian strikes on Ukraine, in particular,
[00:15:00] gas stations in Kyiv and Sumy region were hit, warehouses
[00:15:04] of the interspecies military academy in Odesa, where a strong
[00:15:07] fire broke out. Another strike hit warehouses with military
[00:15:11] equipment in Kharkiv region. Here is footage of the consequences of the strikes,
[00:15:14] the exact location of the impact
[00:15:17] of Russian shells. Well, now to
[00:15:21] other news and news about the global energy market.
[00:15:25] Events in the Armuz Strait directly affected OPEC's ability to
[00:15:28] regulate prices in the market. Does this mean that the cartel's
[00:15:32] time is over? Svyatoslav Bacharov looked into this in the
[00:15:35] Infographics program.
[00:15:38] For half a century, the global oil market was orchestrated by OPEC. One decision
[00:15:42] on quotas would drastically change trajectories. Today, the cartel
[00:15:46] gathers, announces an increase in production, but the market practically does not
[00:15:49] react. Who has taken over control? The
[00:15:52] graphs will show.
[00:15:55] Let's start with the main thing. Here is the volume of production of OPEC Plus countries. The alliance
[00:15:58] has been operating since late 2016.
[00:16:01] At its peak, the countries that were part of it produced almost 40
[00:16:05] million barrels per day. Now look at the right edge. In
[00:16:08] February, the organization's members pumped out every second barrel in
[00:16:12] the world, meaning their share was 48%. But in
[00:16:15] July it was already 40%. They lost eight points in
[00:16:18] six months, and the smaller the share, the weaker the influence on
[00:16:21] the market. In May, the United Arab Emirates left OPEC, having been in the organization
[00:16:25] for almost 60 years.
[00:16:29] The reason is that very quota. Abu Dhabi invested more than
[00:16:32] 140 billion dollars in production, brought capacity to almost 5
[00:16:36] million barrels per day. They were allowed to pump three or
[00:16:39] four. Iraq, the second producer in the alliance, one of
[00:16:42] the five founders, also considered leaving in the summer. In
[00:16:46] the end, the prime minister stated: we will not leave OPEC, but we will demand
[00:16:49] a fair quota. The logic is exactly the same. Arguing about quotas
[00:16:53] has become almost meaningless. The Armuz Strait is closed, Iraq's
[00:16:57] production collapsed from 4.2 million
[00:17:00] barrels in February to 1.5 million in May, sea
[00:17:04] exports are 8% of last year's level. Since March.
[00:17:07] the cartel announced six times an increase in production, all these
[00:17:10] decisions had little effect on prices. Oil that cannot
[00:17:14] be delivered to consumers does not affect prices. The Armuz crisis
[00:17:17] only exacerbated OPEC's problems, simply because
[00:17:21] OPEC also started producing less, simply because
[00:17:25] both Saudi Arabia and Iraq, and the United
[00:17:28] Arab Emirates, could not supply the entire volume
[00:17:31] of produced oil to the market, and the opening of Armuz will only exacerbate
[00:17:34] the problem simply because the authorities of Iraq
[00:17:38] Arabia, most likely, will declare that for many
[00:17:41] months, already more than half a year, we produced
[00:17:44] less oil than we could have, than our quotas allow, and we want
[00:17:48] to compensate these volumes, respectively,
[00:17:51] they will try to flood the world market with excess volumes
[00:17:55] of oil that they will produce, well, respectively, in
[00:17:58] order to compensate for these
[00:18:00] downtimes.
[00:18:02] The conductor's place was taken by the one who buys oil. Since the beginning
[00:18:06] of the conflict, China bought 400 million barrels
[00:18:09] less than a year earlier. This is not economy, this is management.
[00:18:13] Beijing has about 1.5 billion barrels in storage. This
[00:18:16] is the largest reserve in the world. The price is too high, China takes from
[00:18:20] its reserves, the largest buyer leaves the market. The price
[00:18:23] dropped too low. China returns and buys
[00:18:27] in advance. China's import reduction after the start
[00:18:30] of the US-Iran war in the Middle East prevented prices from
[00:18:34] skyrocketing. If China continued to buy
[00:18:38] at previous volumes, oil would cost a third more. China looked at its
[00:18:41] behavior model for forming reserves at the International
[00:18:45] Energy Agency, which was created in the 1970s
[00:18:49] by the US and European countries. It was created precisely to
[00:18:52] solve the problems of oil supplies from the Middle
[00:18:56] East. And the IEA countries were supposed to create their strategic reserves for
[00:19:00] 90 days of imports. And accordingly, what was
[00:19:03] done, China simply scaled up the
[00:19:07] IEA experience. It created a reserve much larger, allowing imports for a much
[00:19:10] longer
[00:19:12] period. Washington is also playing its
[00:19:16] part. The White House announced a deal with Venezuela. Under
[00:19:20] the control of an American company, 17 fields with
[00:19:23] reserves of 65 billion barrels will pass, which is
[00:19:27] one-third more than all reserves in the states themselves.
[00:19:29] 35% of the American operating company goes to
[00:19:33] the Pentagon. The American government secures the possibility
[00:19:38] of 20% of production at cost price. In Caracas,
[00:19:41] after this, they are seriously discussing leaving OPEC. Venezuela is one
[00:19:45] of the cartel's founders. In one year, the organization risks
[00:19:48] losing its second major member. Venezuela
[00:19:52] currently possesses 17% of the world's
[00:19:55] oil reserves, however, production volumes amount to just over
[00:19:58] 1% of global output. This has been a problem for the last 25
[00:20:02] years, but it's a possibility for
[00:20:04] tomorrow. So.
[00:20:15] These are reserves in the subsoil and reserve production capacities. Armuz will open and its barrels will return to the market, but the cartel's
[00:20:18] role is changing. From a sole conductor who
[00:20:21] set the price, OPEC is turning into one of the participants in the oil
[00:20:25] orchestra, and they together write the score of oil prices, and it
[00:20:29] doesn't always turn out
[00:20:30] in unison.
[00:20:38] In Vladivostok, people are used to getting up early and waiting for the whole country to
[00:20:42] wake up, but when big opportunities appear
[00:20:46] in business, you can't wait. Business loans.
