[00:00:31] It's easy to get confused about the facts when you only see part of the whole
[00:00:34] picture.
[00:00:37] The pursuit of views changes entire
[00:00:40] locations. It's easy
[00:00:42] to do,
[00:00:45] to change.
[00:01:08] Another village in the Kharkiv region has come under the control of our units, Talkhovatka. This settlement
[00:01:12] is located right inside the Reznikov cauldron, where thousands of
[00:01:16] AFU militants are blocked. Their situation is worsening every
[00:01:19] day, it's impossible to get out of the encirclement. The enemy is offered to surrender, but
[00:01:23] in case of refusal, they face complete elimination.
[00:01:27] Our troops daily launch massive strikes on the rear of Ukraine,
[00:01:31] so in the Volyn region, a railway echelon with military
[00:01:34] cargo was destroyed, warehouses with weapons,
[00:01:37] power plants, and gas stations were also attacked. Everything will be told in detail by our military
[00:01:40] correspondents, Kirill Popov and Andrey Grigoriev.
[00:01:44] Kyiv under enemy
[00:01:46] drone attacks since morning. And after such strikes, the affected objects have been
[00:01:49] smoking all day today, Russian reactive geraniums burn
[00:01:53] Kyiv gas stations one by one.
[00:01:57] The enemy disabled 16 gas stations in
[00:02:00] the capital, there is no fuel shortage yet, but we see that the fuel
[00:02:03] infrastructure is being deliberately destroyed. In the capital,
[00:02:07] the premises of gas stations were damaged in two districts of the capital at once.
[00:02:10] Fires in large logistics complexes in
[00:02:14] Kyiv and Kharkiv regions, they have long been used as transit bases for the
[00:02:18] AFU. MP Poroshenko, who, while president, promised that
[00:02:21] the children of Donbas would sit in basements, now predicts
[00:02:25] the same for all of
[00:02:27] Ukraine. The reality is this. The reality
[00:02:31] is this: the security situation is rapidly deteriorating. Russia,
[00:02:35] with its jet drones, has made a technological breakthrough, and
[00:02:38] Ukraine has not created effective air defense.
[00:02:42] Near the village of Rymachi in Volyn, a military echelon was hit by jet
[00:02:45] drones. In general, so much railway transport has already been destroyed
[00:02:49] that Ukraine is forced to ask for it abroad. But in Europe,
[00:02:53] the gauge is different. We urge all our partners
[00:02:56] to urgently help us find locomotives compatible with...
[00:03:30] a military academy in Odessa, along the entire Black Sea coast
[00:03:33] of Ukraine, port infrastructure is being disabled. As a result,
[00:03:37] in the Odessa region, a logistics center in the settlement of
[00:03:41] Velyka Balka was hit, providing storage and
[00:03:44] distribution of military cargo arriving in Ukraine from
[00:03:47] abroad, in the port of Chernomorsk, a dry cargo type sea vessel and
[00:03:51] a Ro-Ro type ferry, delivering cargo intended to
[00:03:54] provide for the AFU. A roll-on, roll-off vessel, or
[00:03:58] simply Ro-Ro formally.
[00:04:46] Shells fly one after another into Chervony Yar, a village in the Zaporizhzhia region, from where
[00:04:50] our assault groups still have to drive out militants and where the enemy
[00:04:54] currently maintains activity.
[00:04:58] And here are some more objective control shots. Aerial reconnaissance records the landing
[00:05:01] of a Ukrainian hexacopter in a forest belt. The first shell is
[00:05:04] a sighting shot, the second one immediately follows. And the UAV control point
[00:05:08] is already engulfed in flames. I think the enemies don't like it very much, because
[00:05:11] there are very serious consequences, the same thing is happening now in
[00:05:15] another direction, Sloviansk-Kramatorsk, Russian
[00:05:18] troops are approaching the agglomeration, the main direction is towards
[00:05:21] Druzhkivka for us and further, we are liberating the territory directly
[00:05:24] in front of us. The creation of a security belt along
[00:05:28] the southern Russian borders continues.
[00:05:31] Today, to the east of Vovchansk, the Russian armed forces liberated the village of
[00:05:35] Olkhovatka, here are fresh shots from there. This is part of the Reznikov cauldron,
[00:05:39] into which up to 1,700
[00:05:42] AFU servicemen fell in the Kharkiv region. There are still 24 settlements inside.
[00:05:46] And the ring is expanding in both directions, both inward and
[00:05:50] outward, depriving the enemy of any possibility
[00:05:53] to escape. The Russian army offers
[00:05:56] to surrender to everyone caught in the encirclement. Andrey Grigoriev, Maxim
[00:05:59] Shchepilov, Alexander Ivankov,
[00:06:01] Vesti.
[00:06:04] Russia urges the Yemeni Ansar movement to stop attacking
[00:06:08] ships in the Red Sea. This statement was made by our permanent representative to
[00:06:12] the UN from the Security Council rostrum. According to Vasily Nebenzya, Russia
[00:06:15] is alarmed that the consequences of the Yemeni conflict are
[00:06:18] destabilizing an already turbulent region and undermining global supplies
[00:06:21] of vital goods against the backdrop of a difficult situation for
[00:06:25] developing countries with
[00:06:26] food.
[00:06:30] Russia condemns attacks on civilian vessels that threaten
[00:06:33] freedom and safety of navigation, the lives and health of
[00:06:36] sailors, and the integrity of cargo, wherever they may
[00:06:39] occur. Such actions create...
[00:06:50] cease all actions that could pose a threat to commercial
[00:06:54] vessels and their crews in the Red Sea and the Gulf of
[00:06:57] Aden.
[00:07:00] The Middle East is experiencing the most serious energy crisis in modern
[00:07:04] history. Against this background, Russia advocates for equal access of states to
[00:07:08] energy as a basis for development. This was stated by the head of
[00:07:11] the Ministry of Energy, Sergey Tsevelyov, commenting on the G20 meeting on
[00:07:14] energy in American Houston. Given the surge
[00:07:17] in diesel prices, the summit has already been given the subtitle "Houston, we
[00:07:21] have problems." Are there any ideas on how to solve them? This was investigated by
[00:07:25] our American correspondent Dmitry Melnikov.
[00:07:28] Not long ago, Texas Houston was called the energy capital
[00:07:32] of the USA and even the whole world, but today this gigantic
[00:07:35] oil refining machine is working at its limits.
[00:07:38] Refineries are loaded at
[00:07:41] 98%. But quickly increasing fuel
[00:07:44] production is not working, too much depends on what
[00:07:48] is happening thousands of kilometers from here, in the Strait of Hormuz in
[00:07:51] the Middle East, and also on attacks on Russian
[00:07:55] refineries. In a few days, diesel prices in the USA reached
[00:07:59] a historic high, even in oil-rich Texas, today
[00:08:02] it's already 6.5 dollars per gallon, over the year a growth of more
[00:08:06] than 80%. For the third time in recent days,
[00:08:10] the US President blames this...
[00:08:42] since 2022, the summit of heads of financial departments was attended by
[00:08:46] Minister Anton Siluanov, now Texas is hosting the Russian
[00:08:50] delegation on the energy track.
[00:08:53] It turned out that without Russian diesel, the American and
[00:08:56] world economy would not go far.
[00:08:58] More and more fuel is coming from the Middle
[00:09:01] East, while Russian diesel fuel exports have significantly
[00:09:05] decreased. Previously, Russia was a major exporter of diesel, and now
[00:09:08] it exports practically nothing. We will talk about specific projects
[00:09:15] that we want to launch, all of them will be beneficial for the USA, and
[00:09:19] also for our allies around the world. In times of crisis,
[00:09:22] the White House hastily cancels green regulations for oil
[00:09:26] product producers and even lowers fuel quality
[00:09:29] requirements. Against this background, the ideas that Russia consistently promotes,
[00:09:33] despite years of Western resistance, today
[00:09:36] sound like the main voice of common
[00:09:40] sense. We consistently advocate for issues
[00:09:43] related to energy security,
[00:09:47] for equal access to
[00:09:50] energy resources, for a non-discriminatory
[00:09:53] approach to energy,
[00:09:56] for access, equal access to technologies in
[00:10:00] the field of energy, we believe that this is
[00:10:03] extremely necessary for all countries to
[00:10:07] develop effectively.
[00:10:10] The American policy towards Russia these days seems to
[00:10:14] have reached its climax. While here in
[00:10:17] Houston, the US is discussing with Moscow how to supply the global market
[00:10:21] with energy, in Washington they have returned to the topic of hellish
[00:10:24] sanctions, providing for 100% duties against
[00:10:27] buyers of Russian oil and gas. The day before, the US House of Representatives
[00:10:31] Rules Committee approved the procedure for voting on
[00:10:35] a bill on new sanctions against Russia and
[00:10:38] Iran. However, it is already obvious to everyone in Washington that
[00:10:42] imposing sanctions against Russia in the current situation means
[00:10:45] literally extinguishing a fire in global markets
[00:10:49] with such scarce gasoline. Dmitry Melnikov, Pavel
[00:10:52] Kostrikov and ... Evgenia Bogomolova, Vesti from
[00:10:55] Houston, Texas.
[00:10:57] Now a short commercial, then we'll continue
[00:11:00] the broadcast.

[00:15:31] the country, in contacts, in work
[00:15:35] with our colleagues abroad, and in different
[00:15:38] regions of the world, how do you assess the situation
[00:15:41] today, especially since the flu
[00:15:45] season is not far off, as they say here, the peculiarity
[00:15:49] of this season is that
[00:15:51] flu vaccines today, their composition has been completely replaced for all three
[00:15:55] components, both influenza A1N1, and influenza
[00:15:59] A3N2 and influenza B, completely new.
[00:16:02] components are included in the vaccine, this means that we have not
[00:16:05] encountered these viruses before, the vaccines
[00:16:09] are prepared in accordance with the recommendations: in the Russian
[00:16:12] Federation there are excellent vaccines, quadrivalent and
[00:16:15] trivalent against all variants of the influenza virus that may come
[00:16:18] to us, and today they include a completely new antigenic
[00:16:21] composition, which is prescribed. Vaccines are already
[00:16:25] arriving in the regions, their quantity is sufficient,
[00:16:28] and readiness for conducting the vaccination campaign.
[00:16:32] There are only two days left until the elections to the State Duma,
[00:16:35] preparations for voting, as
[00:17:14] stated by the head of the Central Election Commission, Ella Pamfilova, have entered the peak phase,
[00:17:18] at the same time, the number of attacks on the electoral system is also growing.
[00:17:21] Commission members are constantly receiving threats. The day before, a ban on
[00:17:25] publishing voter polls, forecast results, and other
[00:17:28] studies related to the upcoming voting came into effect throughout
[00:17:32] Russia. Preparations for the elections of deputies
[00:17:35] to the State Duma have entered their final
[00:17:43] phase. In 46 regions, it is proceeding early, and about
[00:17:47] 7 million people have applied to be included in the voter list at
[00:17:51] their location or to participate in remote
[00:17:54] electronic voting. Such data was announced by the Russian Central Election Commission.
[00:17:58] Less than three days remain until the opening of the polling stations,
[00:18:02] and as the head of the Central Election Commission emphasized.
[00:18:06] We have been facing this for more than a
[00:18:13] year, but what is happening now is hard
[00:18:17] to compare with anything in terms of intensity, saturation,
[00:18:20] speed, various threats
[00:18:24] of attacks, thank God, we
[00:18:28] predicted much of what is now
[00:18:31] beginning to happen,
[00:18:34] and prepared well.
[00:18:38] We are improving in the new regions. They vote with a special feeling, there
[00:18:41] for the first time, the composition of the State Duma is being elected by residents of the DPR, LPR,
[00:18:45] Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, they began the procedure in late
[00:18:49] August. In Mariupol, members of precinct election commissions themselves
[00:18:53] go to addresses so that every citizen can vote and, first
[00:18:56] of all, do it safely.
[00:19:00] For us, this is a holiday because we are united, second,
[00:19:04] that we are now choosing our...
[00:19:08] Despite continuous shelling by the AFU, increased drone
[00:19:11] danger, Horlivka is also voting. Everyone who wants and can
[00:19:15] does it in advance. Early voting in the region
[00:19:18] will continue until September 17. Party representatives
[00:19:21] have a few days left to convey their position to voters and
[00:19:25] hear their opinions themselves. The leader of the United Russia election list,
[00:19:28] Evgeny Poddubny, is in the north in the Murmansk region, where he visited several
[00:19:32] settlements. In the village of Sputnik Pechenga, where units of the naval
[00:19:36] Northern Fleet are based and military families
[00:19:39] live. Hero of Russia laid flowers at the memorial and
[00:19:42] inspected social facilities, including renovated residential buildings under
[00:19:46] the renovation program. It is important that families
[00:19:50] are in a comfortable, normal
[00:19:52] environment, in this sense,
[00:19:56] it's not a question of the size of the settlement and the number of inhabitants, it's
[00:20:00] a fundamentally important question for the state,
[00:20:04] and of course, the soldiers.
[00:20:07] on the front line should not, you know,
[00:20:11] worry about the conditions in which
[00:20:14] everyone lives. Hero of Russia Vladislav Golovin in Nizhny Tagil,
[00:20:18] the leader of the United Russia election list met there with employees of
[00:20:21] Uralvagonzavod. He noted that courage on the battlefield,
[00:20:25] and skill in the workshops are two sides of the same coin of defending
[00:20:28] the homeland, and discussed the future of military
[00:20:31] equipment produced by the factory. Each piece of equipment has its own
[00:20:35] purpose, its own front of work,
[00:20:38] so to speak, so if there were no tanks
[00:20:41] now, we would not
[00:20:43] have hit the targets that needed to be
[00:20:47] hit, or it would have taken longer to hit them, or...
[00:20:52] Skolkovo discussed the implementation of the technological section of the United
[00:20:56] Russia national program. One of the leaders of the party's election list,
[00:20:59] Sergey Sobyanin, took part. The program includes eight key
[00:21:03] areas, from artificial intelligence to bioeconomics. Their
[00:21:06] implementation will shorten the path of Russian developments from
[00:21:09] ideas and tests to real mass
[00:21:13] application. As of today, 250
[00:21:16] projects are essentially being implemented here. on
[00:21:20] the Russian and international market, today this cluster is among
[00:21:24] the top three global clusters in all such
[00:21:27] categories, the first is Shanghai, they have a large one, the second in Abu
[00:21:30] Dhabi, the third in Moscow, so in principle, not a bad start.
[00:21:34] The Communist Party of the Russian Federation is sending important cargo to the zone
[00:21:37] of the special military operation. Vehicles are leaving the Lenin State Farm
[00:21:41] near Moscow. Food, drinking water, medicines, drones, thermal imagers,
[00:21:45] motor vehicles, camouflage nets, construction
[00:21:49] materials will be delivered to the front line.
[00:22:20] Russian parties, thank you, but I am proud, this is
[00:22:23] a labor, military, patriotic
[00:22:25] feat. The Liberal Democratic Party of Russia proposed creating a system of state support
[00:22:29] for folk crafts and traditions. According to the party
[00:22:32] leader Leonid Slutsky, such decisions must be prepared together with
[00:22:36] the professional community, and the state's task is to help masters
[00:22:39] and creative associations preserve accumulated knowledge,
[00:22:43] develop their craft and pass on traditions to future
[00:22:47] generations. The most important task is
[00:22:50] to create in the country an institute that
[00:22:54] has in fact long been overdue, for the support
[00:22:57] of intangible cultural heritage,
[00:23:00] this is not only folk art crafts,
[00:23:04] here also musical and various
[00:23:07] other traditions of a huge number of
[00:23:10] peoples inhabiting our country,
[00:23:13] these are dances, this is
[00:23:16] art that needs organizational support.
[00:23:51] this instrument for ensuring the legitimacy
[00:23:55] of the results of the upcoming elections, all observers
[00:23:58] are prepared, you know, we organized observer schools with you,
[00:24:02] we trained our observers, today they
[00:24:05] are ready to observe the course of the elections from our
[00:24:08] party, we as a party
[00:24:12] are set for constructive work. New People marked the first year
[00:24:16] of the Second Chance fund for helping addicts, during this time.
[00:24:20] More than a thousand people received help, various educational
[00:24:23] events were held, parents were able to learn how to prevent
[00:24:26] their child from becoming addicted. The program was initiated by the leader
[00:24:30] of the New People faction in the State Duma, Alexey Nechaev, and Vice-Speaker Vladislav
[00:24:34] Davankov. Our comrades, our team from the Second
[00:24:38] Chance Foundation has already done a great job,
[00:24:41] having created an ethical code for
[00:24:44] rehabs, 150 rehabs have already
[00:24:47] adopted this code, and we have "white" rehabs that can
[00:24:51] be recommended, including on the Second Chance Foundation's
[00:24:54] website. This is only one year of
[00:24:57] the foundation's work.
[00:25:00] Today we will see what who
[00:25:04] does, how many meetings have been held with parents,
[00:25:07] how many tens of thousands of people have already been covered by this good
[00:25:11] educational work. And Deputy of the Fair
[00:25:15] Russia faction Sergey Kabushev held a round table dedicated to
[00:25:18] prospects for interaction.
[00:25:50] Our education system, it should also be vital, that is,
[00:25:53] practical, that is, we don't learn for school, we learn
[00:25:57] for life, so that this knowledge works, brings you
[00:26:01] profit, so that... life is colorful and
[00:26:04] bright in all its manifestations. Voters have
[00:26:07] several ways to participate in elections. You can come to a polling
[00:26:11] station, vote remotely or at home, but the main thing is
[00:26:14] to decide on a candidate.
[00:30:28] Yantaksyur and this is the program. Novorossiya. In our
[00:30:33] program, we talk about the land that has returned to
[00:30:36] its historical roots. About Novorossiya. Today
[00:30:40] we will try to take a careful and honest look at the past and
[00:30:43] present of this region. In the spirit of true
[00:30:46] Russian history and without ideological fakes of
[00:30:50] enemy propaganda. And here's what we'll talk about
[00:30:53] today. Trench truth in detail. Why do
[00:30:57] directors change safe pavilions
[00:31:00] to front-line locations and go to Donbas to shoot
[00:31:04] feature films, about the importance of the cultural
[00:31:08] front and fixing meanings, what
[00:31:11] battle will we lose if we freeze film production until
[00:31:15] peace comes, a conversation with the program's expert.
[00:31:18] Mountains that are not on the map, but are in the
[00:31:22] heart, how in Donbas they develop mountaineering, despite
[00:31:26] the landscape and circumstances.
[00:31:28] Today we will talk about
[00:31:31] what, it would seem, should be far from
[00:31:34] the trenches, but in fact is at the very
[00:31:37] center of the battle, only this
[00:31:40] battle is being fought for minds, and...
[00:31:43] today it will be about cinema. Cinematography in
[00:31:46] Donbas and Novorossiya is not just entertainment and not
[00:31:50] art for art's sake, it is a chronicle, it is
[00:31:54] a weapon and it is memory. Even in
[00:31:57] pre-war Soviet years, directors came here.
