[00:01:03] Nationwide voting has ended, polling stations
[00:01:06] are closed, and now in the regions, vote counting
[00:01:08] is underway, with preliminary results being tallied at election
[00:01:12] headquarters. United Russia is preliminarily leading in
[00:01:14] 177 single-mandate constituencies in the State Duma elections,
[00:01:18] after processing more than 23%
[00:01:21] of the protocols, the party is gaining 57% of the votes, while
[00:01:25] the CPRF is leading in four
[00:01:27] constituencies.
[00:01:40] Despite numerous provocations by the Kyiv regime, including attacks on
[00:01:43] polling stations, over a hundred DDoS attacks on remote
[00:01:46] electronic voting, the elections took place, and moreover, set
[00:01:50] a record for turnout, exceeding 56%. Millions of people came to
[00:01:54] the polling stations. Which parties will be represented in
[00:01:58] parliament, who is leading according to the first data?
[00:02:18] Russia has made its choice, millions of voters, over
[00:02:21] 90 thousand polling stations and 3 days to
[00:02:25] declare what vector for the country's development the citizen
[00:02:28] considers most important.
[00:03:04] That is, voting for all levels of elections throughout
[00:03:07] the country, including Kaliningrad,
[00:03:10] has concluded.
[00:03:13] So, it seems that five parties will still be represented
[00:03:17] in parliament, these are the same political forces that entered
[00:03:20] the State Duma five years earlier, but the balance of power, apparently, has
[00:03:24] nevertheless changed. According to the most up-to-date data, United
[00:03:27] Russia holds a confident first place. The preliminary result is
[00:03:31] about
[00:03:31] 57.5%.
[00:03:37] I think we all highly appreciate the results of the election
[00:03:40] campaign. Firstly, they surpassed, speaking
[00:03:43] estimatively, the results of twenty one, a difficult
[00:03:46] period. But this is characteristic of our people,
[00:03:50] multinational, for the history of Russia, the greater
[00:03:54] the trials, the stronger the bond
[00:03:57] of peoples and Russia becomes.
[00:04:03] The Communist Party preliminarily showed the second result, according
[00:04:06] to data as of Sunday evening, the CPRF is gaining more than
[00:04:10] 13.5% of the votes. The LDPR also enters
[00:04:13] the new composition of the State Duma, the party's current result
[00:04:17] is over
[00:04:18] 9%.
[00:04:22] The president always stated this, and we did
[00:04:25] everything to form a program of victory, 10
[00:04:29] worthy steps, and published it with a circulation
[00:04:32] of almost one hundred million. Our team, over five
[00:04:35] thousand parliamentary candidates from Kamchatka to
[00:04:38] Kaliningrad, we worked directly on the
[00:04:41] ground, in labor collectives, and I
[00:04:44] want to thank both the team and all citizens who
[00:04:48] actively supported us in
[00:04:49] the elections.
[00:04:53] The entire campaign was built on direct contact, on direct contacts with people. This
[00:04:57] was the work provided in this
[00:05:01] election campaign, an important election campaign for any political party, these are the elections to the State
[00:05:04] Duma, we hope for a good result, we traveled
[00:05:07] a lot, worked a lot, were in contact
[00:05:11] with people a lot.
[00:05:14] But Fair Russia will probably yield the fourth line to
[00:05:18] the "New People" party, which for the first time entered parliament based on the results of the
[00:05:22] 2021 campaign, the youngest party in the State Duma managed
[00:05:25] to improve its result, preliminarily, it's almost 8%, while
[00:05:29] the Fair Russians have just over
[00:05:30] five.
[00:05:33] The mood is good, I see it in my headquarters, because it's clear that
[00:05:36] the party's results have grown compared to twenty-one, which means
[00:05:40] we've been doing something for 5 years. We've been working, not
[00:05:44] slacking off, right, because we were doing party
[00:05:46] projects, the party grew from hundreds of people to tens
[00:05:50] of thousands of party members, we have many candidates,
[00:05:54] now headquarters are deployed not only in the capitals of regions, but in many
[00:05:57] cities, this is a big
[00:05:59] job,
[00:06:02] in general, I must say that the elections were
[00:06:05] legitimate, transparent and honest,
[00:06:09] and the turnout is much higher than in twenty-one.
[00:06:13] Well, as people say, this is
[00:06:15] our response to Berlin, because they really hoped
[00:06:19] that we would waver, that we would be afraid, that there would be
[00:06:22] a low turnout, that the elections would almost be legitimate,
[00:06:26] disrupted, we did everything absolutely
[00:06:28] correctly.
[00:06:31] Despite powerful pressure on the information
[00:06:34] infrastructure, on the federal remote electronic
[00:06:38] voting platform, 3,300 people
[00:06:41] were able to cast their vote. people,
[00:06:45] since the start of voting on September
[00:06:48] 18th and until 8:00 PM
[00:06:51] today, a total of over 3,000 waves
[00:06:55] of DDoS attacks have been recorded on the digital
[00:06:58] infrastructures involved in the election
[00:07:02] process,
[00:07:04] specifically 135 attacks on the federal
[00:07:07] platform for remote electronic
[00:07:11] voting, 16 on the CEC
[00:07:14] website,
[00:07:16] 1968
[00:07:19] attacks on the electronic government infrastructure
[00:07:22] and 420 attacks on Rostelecom's
[00:07:26] infrastructure.
[00:07:30] Of those who registered for remote electronic voting,
[00:07:34] more than 90% cast their vote online, according to the Ministry of Digital Development.
[00:07:37] And the overall turnout for the 2026
[00:07:40] election campaign is higher. Over 56%,
[00:07:44] reported the Central Election Commission. The commission closely monitored
[00:07:48] reports of violations, not a single message will go unnoticed,
[00:07:51] but there is no global impact on the elections.
[00:07:54] No.
[00:07:58] We guess who, it's clear why, because
[00:08:01] it seems to me that it's impossible to prove that elections cannot be held
[00:08:05] under these conditions, this was the main goal, we prove
[00:08:08] the opposite, that elections not only can, but must be held,
[00:08:12] because... because these are scheduled procedures, they must take place within the legally
[00:08:15] defined deadlines, beyond these deadlines the power
[00:08:19] becomes illegitimate.
[00:08:23] So, by 9 PM Moscow time, the Central Election Commission
[00:08:26] reported on the data obtained after processing almost
[00:08:29] 14% of the votes, but the counting does not stop, even
[00:08:33] at night. You can track data updates in real
[00:08:36] time. And it is already safe to say that by Monday
[00:08:40] noon, according to the capital's time zone, we
[00:08:43] will receive much more complete data. The next CEC briefing
[00:08:47] is scheduled for 11 AM
[00:08:48] on Monday.
[00:08:52] Elizaveta, thank you. Elizaveta Khramtsova spoke about how
[00:08:55] the elections proceeded and about the first results of the vote. So,
[00:08:59] after processing more than 32% of the protocols, according to
[00:09:02] the CEC, United Russia is leading, she is gaining almost 57%
[00:09:06] of the votes. For the State Duma elections, the party came out with a new national
[00:09:09] program. The document was compiled based on proposals from citizens, among the
[00:09:13] priorities are: family support, improving the demographic
[00:09:16] situation, regional development, implementation of technological
[00:09:19] innovations, preservation of historical memory and promotion of
[00:09:22] spiritual and moral guidelines. From the headquarters
[00:09:25] of United Russia, a report by Maria
[00:09:27] Valieva.
[00:09:30] A selector meeting with regional branches of the United
[00:09:33] Russia party took place at the situation center on
[00:09:36] Kutuzovsky Prospekt, immediately after the end
[00:09:40] of voting. United Russia is leading
[00:09:43] in the political race, and this means, as Dmitry
[00:09:47] Medvedev emphasized during his speech today, that
[00:09:50] citizens maintain trust
[00:09:53] in the leading political force in the country.
[00:09:56] Elections, of all kinds, that took place over these
[00:10:00] 3 days in our country have successfully concluded.
[00:10:04] If we talk about elections to the State
[00:10:07] Duma, then the turnout, according to preliminary
[00:10:11] data, reached.
[00:12:55] allows synchronizing the needs of society,
[00:12:58] the actions of the party, and the decisions of the state. The program is designed
[00:13:01] for 5 years until 2031,
[00:13:04] with a total of seven main directions,
[00:13:08] and the first one is demography. My team and I
[00:13:11] traveled across the entire country during the election campaign, from
[00:13:15] the Far East to the Baltics. There were a huge
[00:13:18] number of meetings, mainly with families, as I am responsible for
[00:13:21] families, for children, large families, participants
[00:13:25] of the special military operation, young student families, and
[00:13:29] first of all, these are precisely the issues concerning
[00:13:32] housing conditions, expansion, improvement, purchase. In Moscow,
[00:13:36] the candidate from United Russia is leading in all single-mandate constituencies, as
[00:13:40] evidenced by the first counting data. Sergey Sobyanin
[00:13:43] thanked Muscovites for their high civic
[00:13:46] activity and noted that, according to preliminary data,
[00:13:50] United Russia achieved a convincing and well-deserved
[00:13:53] victory. We see that the positions of United
[00:13:57] Russia are significantly strengthening
[00:14:00] based on the results of party lists and
[00:14:04] single-mandate constituencies, this of course, places enormous
[00:14:08] responsibility on us, especially in today's
[00:14:11] difficult conditions,
[00:14:14] therefore, my colleagues and I have just discussed
[00:14:17] thousands of wishes,
[00:14:20] mandates of voters, of course, will be the basis
[00:14:24] of our... after the announcement of the election
[00:14:27] results, there will be a lot of work to do,
[00:14:31] because a parliamentary majority
[00:14:33] is a great responsibility, and the trust
[00:14:37] of citizens must not be
[00:14:40] undermined in any way. Maria Valieva, Oleg Sokolsh, Alexander Rakieru
[00:14:43] and Eva Fedotova,
[00:14:45] Vesti.
[00:14:48] The head of the Central Election Commission, Ila Pomfilova, reported mass
[00:14:52] cyberattacks on the voting infrastructure. In addition,
[00:14:55] many members of election commissions received threats, and in border
[00:14:59] regions, two members of election commissions died during drone
[00:15:03] attacks. Ksenia Bykova has
[00:15:05] the details.
[00:15:07] Early in the morning in the Kherson region, a Ukrainian drone attacked a regular
[00:15:11] passenger bus with civilians. Two people died, including 60-year-old Olga
[00:15:14] Dimyanenko, a member of polling
[00:15:18] station number 220. Condolences were expressed to her
[00:15:21] family, friends and colleagues by the Central Election Commission.
[00:15:25] To fight like a man, genuinely,
[00:15:27] therefore
[00:15:31] they hunt our peaceful people, mainly
[00:15:35] women, children.
[00:16:08] By committing another barbaric crime, the Kyiv regime
[00:16:12] once again encroached on the electoral rights of our citizens, guaranteed
[00:16:15] by the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The Investigative
[00:16:19] Committee of Russia will conduct a full and comprehensive investigation,
[00:16:22] identify and bring to justice all those involved in
[00:16:26] committing this terrorist act. In a few days,
[00:16:30] this is already the second case of an election commission employee dying. Previously, in
[00:16:33] the Zaporozhye region, during a drone attack near a residential building,
[00:16:39] the chairman of Uika No. 394, Elena Ostanina, died. The President of Russia posthumously awarded her the Order
[00:16:43] of Courage. Bright memory to our colleague, yes, bright
[00:16:46] memory. I think that one of the polling stations in the Zaporozhye
[00:16:50] region, we will hold elections, life is getting better there.
[00:16:54] We will name it after her. The polling station in the village of Priship, Zaporozhye region, also came
[00:16:57] under attack. It was located in the building of an operating school where
[00:17:01] 170 children study. Part of the building's
[00:17:05] roof was damaged. At the time of the attack, people were inside.
[00:17:37] we have to work under constant threats and provocations. I can
[00:17:41] honestly say, professionals work here, but we have already had
[00:17:44] cases when we evacuated the polling station, when we
[00:17:47] evacuated ballots directly in
[00:17:50] stationary portable ballot boxes. Despite regular SMS notifications
[00:17:54] of drone danger, people still came to polling
[00:17:57] stations to express their civic position.
[00:18:00] Border regions showed particularly high turnout. It's not
[00:18:04] scary, because we've already gotten used to this situation.
[00:18:12] power sources, while the total turnout in the republic, including early
[00:18:15] voting, was almost 80%. For
[00:18:19] this day, we have been since fourteen, since
[00:18:23] fourteen, so we are not afraid of anything at all,
[00:18:27] I am not afraid of anything anymore, I survived the war of forty
[00:18:30] one to forty-five and
[00:18:33] now I have survived this war, God grant that
[00:18:36] it ends soon. It seems attempts to disrupt the voting,
[00:18:40] as well as to intimidate commission members and voters themselves, did not yield
[00:18:44] the expected result. Moreover, the effect was
[00:18:47] the opposite. Ksenia Bykova, Ivan Kuznetsov,
[00:18:50] Vesti.
[00:18:52] In Mordovia, according to the results of processing the first protocols, the acting
[00:18:56] head Artyom Zdunov is leading. This is data
[00:18:59] from the scoreboard at the Central Election Commission's
[00:19:03] information center. Zdunov has held this post since September
[00:19:06] 2021, and in the previous elections he won with a result
[00:19:09] of 78%. Now on our air is an interview with
[00:19:13] the candidate,
[00:19:16] our polling stations have closed, the counting of ballots has begun,
[00:19:19] in general, how did our three-day
[00:19:22] voting proceed? I think in a very calm, working
[00:19:26] atmosphere, but initially
[00:19:29] our president gave such an instruction, not to succumb to any
[00:19:33] provocations, especially if they come
[00:19:36] from outside, to bite.
[00:19:38] And I want to say that our people, our
[00:19:42] Russian people, those who live in Mordovia,
[00:19:45] we worked very clearly, precisely, and
[00:19:48] professionally, so a big thank you to all
[00:19:52] members of election commissions, leaders, they were directly
[00:19:55] responsible for order, for the safety of those who came to the polling
[00:19:59] stations, to law enforcement agencies, to everyone who
[00:20:03] today, in these days is now engaged
[00:20:07] in counting votes, the work continues, it is very
[00:20:09] responsible, and of course to our
[00:20:13] residents, because it is precisely they
[00:20:15] who now, in these fateful days, I consider these days truly very
[00:20:19] important for our country, were with Russia,
[00:20:23] were with our republic, this is true love for the country, without
[00:20:26] any words, whoever came to the polling station, we have one of the highest turnouts,
[00:20:29] this speaks of the responsibility of people,
[00:20:33] although look at the weather, and of course, there are also
[00:20:36] agricultural... they still had to work, but people
[00:20:40] found time on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday,
[00:20:43] of course, I was very pleased that people came in national
[00:20:46] costumes, yes, in the year of the unity of the peoples of Russia.
[00:21:20] Mmm, yards, roads,
[00:21:23] salaries,
[00:21:25] where children will study, cleanliness,
[00:21:29] therefore, these questions arise every time, especially,
[00:21:32] of course, this applies to territories where there hasn't been
[00:21:36] repairs for a very long time, where underground
[00:21:39] utilities are wearing out, therefore, we are very
[00:21:43] actively addressing this issue, you know, I appeal to the highest leadership of the country to attract
[00:21:47] significant resources, it is very expensive.
[00:22:50] Our task is to welcome them qualitatively, so that there are
[00:22:52] restaurants, food points, and
[00:22:55] walking areas, all of this is also extremely important
[00:22:59] for our lives, well, and of course, I
[00:23:02] always pay great attention
[00:23:05] to public matters, by 2030, we have to finish all schools,
[00:23:09] and clubs when they open, not only in district
[00:23:13] centers, in villages,
[00:23:14] MFCs, and even
[00:23:18] medical centers. People need this to be near
[00:23:21] them and as soon
[00:23:24] as possible, so once again, there is a lot of work,
[00:23:28] we don't have big or small tasks, they are all important, if it's important for someone, then
[00:23:31] it's important for us, okay, thank you,
[00:23:34] thank you,

[00:24:24] go for a diagnosis, but Semyonovich said: don't meddle under the
[00:24:28] hood, woman, men, don't hesitate,

[00:24:34] and now, well, and how do you like your salary at VTB?
[00:24:37] Super kek rubles, increased savings rate, and also a
[00:24:41] chance to win a million rubles with VTB. VTB is
[00:24:44] profitable.
[00:24:55] Now about what is happening in the special operation zone, the fighters of the
[00:24:58] "Sever" group are systematically eliminating militants in the Reznikovsky pocket
[00:25:02] of the Kharkiv region. In the encirclement, AFU positions in the area
[00:25:05] of five settlements have been hit. Our units
[00:25:08] are expanding control beyond the pocket. Russian troops
[00:25:12] are striking at the rear of Ukraine, near Odesa, a road bridge
[00:25:15] and the Novaya Pochta logistics center were destroyed. In Kyiv.
[00:26:05] mere meters to the enemy's position, across the field, the most
[00:26:09] difficult.
[00:26:15] Fighters of the reconnaissance unit of the Center group of forces are preparing
[00:26:18] to storm a particularly fortified area of AFU
[00:26:21] militants.
[00:26:24] Assault groups advance under the cover of attack drones in
[00:26:28] the sky, aerial reconnaissance helps artillerymen smash
[00:26:32] enemy firing points, directing our
[00:26:34] fighters, the enemy clings to his lines, a swarm
[00:26:38] of different caliber drones over their heads, they only need to be
[00:26:41] shot down and camouflaged,
[00:26:44] mhm, hiding, running away from them is useless, that
[00:26:48] is, they have a camera and night vision, so they will see all your movements in the
[00:26:51] forest, they fly fast, over 100
[00:26:55] km/h, a decisive assault is the key to successful
[00:26:58] advance of our forward detachments, maximum
[00:27:01] camouflage. When storming any
[00:27:04] fortified area, strongpoint or village, assault groups
[00:27:08] first gather in a hidden
[00:27:11] or secret place, and then attack from
[00:27:15] several sides simultaneously, we throw
[00:27:19] a connection and step forward,
[00:27:22] yes, rows of barbed wire, which the enemy
[00:27:26] uses to protect his defensive lines, must be passed
[00:27:29] as quickly as possible. Evacuation groups go
[00:27:33] to the strongpoint with the assault troops to save
[00:27:35] a person's life, literally, help must be provided in the first few hours, so the evacuation groups work
[00:27:39] very quickly, the fighters of the Center group are advancing on
[00:27:42] Dobropolye from several sides, fighting is already in urban blocks,
[00:27:46] the success of the advance largely depends on the coordination of assault
[00:27:49] units, so training at the training ground
[00:27:52] every day. Alexander Katsuba, Alexander Malyshev, Vesti

[00:28:25] the summit, the head of the Kyiv regime made a number of statements. According to him,

[00:32:27] Chancellor Merz must resign, and hydrocarbon exports from
[00:32:31] Russia must resume. With such statements spoke the
[00:32:35] leader of Alternative for Germany Alice Weidel, as the winner
[00:32:38] of the state elections in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
[00:32:42] Especially since the coalition couldn't even manage.
[00:32:53] after voting in Berlin, a report from our special correspondent Maria
[00:32:56] Skorodylka from Germany.
[00:33:03] This is how the results of the state elections in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern
[00:33:06] are met by those who won. The opposition
[00:33:09] "Alternative for Germany" breaks ahead in this state, and this
[00:33:13] is an indicator.
[00:33:16] We are the new people's party of Germany, we have replaced the CDU in this
[00:33:19] role, voters are increasingly voting for us because they finally
[00:33:23] want a change in political course. This means that at
[00:33:25] the federal level, Friedrich Merz must draw conclusions, he must do
[00:33:29] this for the sake of his party and for Germany. AfD receives over
[00:33:33] 38% of the votes. The Social Democrats
[00:33:36] are second, Chancellor Merz's Christian Democratic
[00:33:39] Union is completely out of the
[00:33:42] Landtag. He did not pass the five percent. it will be difficult for him
[00:35:16] to form
[00:35:21] a government. By winning these elections, Alternative for Germany
[00:35:24] gained an additional 13 seats in the local parliament,
[00:35:27] the Social Democrats lost eight, while they still hold
[00:35:31] the majority for forming a government in this state. The opposition
[00:35:35] will have to seek a coalition, but the main intrigue is whether the
[00:35:39] Greens and the Left will join them. We
[00:35:42] are leading and of course we want to remain leaders until the end.
[00:36:00] It's not about any specific party, not about political privileges, it's about putting our federal state back on the right track, in this regard, I
[00:36:04] expect other parties to be open to dialogue, everything else makes no
[00:36:08] sense, we must talk to each other, because we want
[00:36:12] to move Mecklenburg-Vorpommern forward for the sake of.
[00:37:57] so many misogynistic things, he said Russian
[00:38:01] things, I do not respect him and do not consider
[00:38:04] him the chancellor of my country. Ahead for the parties that won these elections
[00:38:07] is the search for a coalition; without it, the country faces prolonged
[00:38:11] political chaos and new elections in the East. Thuringia's Prime Minister
[00:38:15] Björn Höcke has already requested to dissolve the parliament and hold
[00:38:18] early elections in the state. Maria Skradyuka and

[00:38:25] Donald Trump's words about creating artificial intelligence forces
[00:38:29] caught representatives of the US tech industry off guard, Politico writes about this. What exactly
[00:38:33] the American leader's initiative consists of
[00:38:36] in the industry, no one really understood. At the same time, the overwhelming majority
[00:38:40] of ordinary Americans consider a real scenario
[00:38:44] in which artificial intelligence will destroy all
[00:38:46] humanity. The line between a step into the future and
[00:38:49] security was sought by
[00:38:51] Mersaev.
[00:38:54] Donald Trump is forming so-called AI forces, the US President announced
[00:38:57] a new structure modeled after the space forces he created in his first
[00:39:01] term. He did not specify what it would do, but promised to name
[00:39:04] a leader in his wording Tsar of Artificial
[00:39:07] Intelligence. This is what the White House calls an advisor overseeing one
[00:39:10] direction. The previous Tsar of and Cryptocurrencies, David
[00:39:13] Sachs, left in March, and since then the post has been vacant. The requirement for
[00:39:17] his successor is one: we will in no way hinder or stifle the growth
[00:39:21] of this incredible industry. On the contrary, we will cherish it, help it, and
[00:39:25] watch over it as it grows. But we will
[00:39:28] look for the bad and it's very easy to do with the help of our already existing system
[00:39:32] of criminal and civil justice. For this, I am forming
[00:39:35] AI forces and will soon announce the name of the AI Tsar.
[00:39:38] Applications are accepted only from people with a high IQ. IQ is still
[00:39:42] the only known characteristic of the new structure, no budget or powers.
[00:39:45] The space forces, to which the president refers, were established by Congress and
[00:39:49] a new branch of the military will not appear without its approval. And the industry,
[00:39:52] which the AI forces are apparently supposed to oversee, learned about the innovations from
[00:39:56] social networks. No one
[00:40:03] even understands what this idea is about, one of them said. The comparison
[00:40:07] with the space forces led at least one interlocutor
[00:40:11] of the publication to believe that the structure could be headed by the Pentagon.
[00:40:14] A week ago, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei suggested that competitors
[00:40:18] jointly slow down the development of AI. Founder Elon Musk,
[00:40:22] OpenAI CEO and Google DeepMind head
[00:40:25] Demis Hassabis. An agreement
[00:40:46] between competitors on how quickly their competing products
[00:40:50] will improve. Congress did not make any exception for such an agreement.
[00:40:53] Slowing down alone is possible, but together it's a cartel. It is noteworthy that
[00:40:58] in his essay he asked the government for an exception from antitrust norms,
[00:41:01] explaining this by national security interests. The answer
[00:41:04] came from the Senate. There is not a single scenario
[00:41:08] in which I would agree to give the most powerful companies in
[00:41:11] human history a small group of
[00:41:14] three or four an antitrust exemption so that they
[00:41:17] could, what, conspire among themselves? That will not
[00:41:21] happen. While Washington debates about an acceptable pace, the models set it
[00:41:25] themselves. The Wall Street Journal found out back in May that
[00:41:28] from Google, a test environment penetrated the internal systems of three real companies.
[00:41:32] In one case, the model guessed a password, in two others it found keys in
[00:41:36] an open repository. Google learned about this in late July, but reported
[00:41:40] it only now after a question from journalists, saying there was
[00:41:43] nothing to disclose. We made sure all three organizations were aware
[00:41:47] and worked with our testing partner to develop
[00:41:50] changes that he has already incorporated into his procedures.
[00:41:54] These events highlight the importance of training powerful
[00:41:58] artificial intelligence models to act responsibly. In this
[00:42:01] case, the model behaved correctly. Correctly, because
[00:42:04] it stopped after realizing the mistake. Claude from Anthropic in the summer in the same
[00:42:08] situation did not stop.
[00:42:11] Broke out of the so-called sandbox and hacked Hugging Face. Meta
[00:42:14] also has a similar case. Thus, human superiority is no longer
[00:42:18] a developer's prediction, but a line in a vulnerability report. Trump,
[00:42:21] however, sees not a problem in this, but inspiration for a new name
[00:42:25] and technology. He says artificial intelligence sounds inaccurate and
[00:42:28] ineloquent. Among the new options are extreme,
[00:42:32] supreme, or surpassing. The last option leads in the poll.
[00:42:36] Who will it surpass first, Congress, the court, or its own
[00:42:39] creators? The question is still open. Emil Mirsaev,
[00:42:42] Vesti.
[00:42:46] In the North Atlantic, the main topic of this whole week is Greenland. In the South
[00:42:50] Atlantic, there are new twists and turns around the Falkland
[00:42:53] Islands. They are controlled by Britain, but Argentina
[00:42:56] claims them. But this dispute affects more and more states.
[00:43:00] Sergey Brilev summarizes the results of this week on the shores of the South
[00:43:03] Atlantic.
[00:43:06] The closing today's leading.
[00:43:12] could have made history with a new record for the number of berets on the heads of local
[00:43:16] livestock breeders. She also could have gone down in history for the kind of animals
[00:43:19] that the livestock breeders brought to the pavilions of this exhibition in the Uruguayan capital Montevideo.
[00:43:22] Their pets, colorful, well-groomed, and
[00:43:25] purebred cows, and how
[00:43:28] carefully they comb their tails. But even
[00:43:32] those who are hard to tear away from the feast of livestock breeding, well, excuse
[00:43:35] me, from the feast that this science promotes, even those looked
[00:43:39] with their eyes... for something else - the inscription "Food",
[00:43:42] stylized as the logo of the London Underground. But it doesn't
[00:43:46] stop there. So, the United Kingdom pavilion
[00:43:49] opened here in Great Britain and Northern
[00:43:52] Ireland includes some familiar things,
[00:43:55] but when, after the bright sun, the eyes get used to the indoor
[00:43:59] lighting, it turns
[00:44:01] out that among the stands of the British Crown's possessions there is also one
[00:44:05] about the South Atlantic, specifically about the Falkland
[00:44:09] Islands. and not the Malvinas, as they are called in South America.
[00:44:13] But we, once again, in South American Uruguay, in
[00:44:16] Argentina, protest.
[00:44:28] Argentine President Javier Milei addressed the people in Bahía Blanca this Friday
[00:44:32] after sending a bill to Congress on Thursday
[00:44:35] that tightens sanctions against companies, it turns out, even against Milei's beloved
[00:44:38] Israel, a company developing the shelf of the disputed
[00:44:41] islands for hydrocarbons. Well, for
[00:44:45] all Argentines, the Malvinas are sacred. Even
[00:44:48] the Mercopress portal, which specializes in news about the disputed
[00:44:52] archipelago, admits it. The statements
[00:44:55] followed an episode at the World Cup in July. Then,
[00:44:59] let us recall, a poster "Malvinas are Argentinian"
[00:45:03] after the victory over England was not afraid to be unfurled even by those Argentine
[00:45:06] players who are associated with English clubs. But there is also...
[00:46:41] Back in 1965, the UN ruled that the right to
[00:46:44] self-determination was not applicable because the population arrived after the territory
[00:46:48] was colonized, and therefore it is a special and separate
[00:46:52] case of colonization. Be that as it may, the British set up
[00:46:55] a corner of the Falkland Islands at the agricultural exhibition in
[00:46:58] Montevideo. To additional questions about what he called
[00:47:02] fake news, Uruguayan President Orse had to
[00:47:05] answer. About the fact that, apparently, it was through Uruguay that a new fiber-optic
[00:47:09] line would pass through the disputed archipelago. We have not received
[00:47:12] such proposals, nothing of the sort. The Malvinas
[00:47:16] belong to Argentina. This is Uruguay's historical position.
[00:47:19] And this is interesting.
[00:47:22] Not only does Churchill look from Montevideo somewhere towards
[00:47:26] Argentina, but even at an earlier stage, right here in
[00:47:29] Montevideo, in the British cemetery, that symbolism arose
[00:47:32] that Queen Victoria also looks in some
[00:47:36] special direction. Well, well,
[00:47:39] which one? Today, in this cemetery, we are interested in one of
[00:47:42] the biggest secrets in all of South America, in that
[00:47:46] yellow chapel. Well, while we
[00:47:49] go to the chapel, let's explain, not just then.
[00:47:52] British colonists from the disputed islands of the South Atlantic found it easiest
[00:47:56] to reach the mainland through Montevideo. That's why
[00:48:00] we will now see a sign in Montevideo that also says not
[00:48:03] Malvinas, but Falklands. But let's look at
[00:48:06] the map. So, even in Spanish colonial
[00:48:09] times, those islands where the British later landed were governed not from
[00:48:13] Buenos Aires, but from Montevideo. And it was then
[00:48:15] part of the Spanish Viceroyalty of Rio de la Plata, from which
[00:48:19] Argentina traces its lineage. But then it became the capital of independent
[00:48:22] Uruguay. That is, the Malvinas are
[00:48:25] Uruguayan. The Uruguayan authorities have long said no,
[00:48:29] they are Argentinian. So what should we
[00:48:31] conclude?
[00:48:35] Yes, even if, having temporarily removed their berets, some seemingly simple farmers
[00:48:38] participate in a digital cattle auction in Montevideo.
[00:48:42] Our prediction is that the closer we get to the elections in
[00:48:45] neighboring Argentina, the more we will hear about the disputed
[00:48:48] islands in the South Atlantic.
[00:48:58] France faces a harsh winter if the government does not listen to
[00:49:01] energy sector workers, said Sophie
[00:49:05] Binet, head of one of the country's leading trade unions. On the
[00:49:08] radio, she criticized the Cabinet's intention to freeze
[00:49:11] the indexation of civil servants' salaries. Diesel prices in
[00:49:13] the Fifth Republic, meanwhile, are breaking historical anti-records.
[00:49:17] Details from our European correspondent Regina.
[00:49:21] корреспондента Регина.
[00:49:25] Social unrest is growing in France due to rising fuel prices.
[00:49:28] The Élysée Palace has systematically received warnings in recent days
[00:49:31] about the possibility of a protest movement. The Yellow
[00:49:35] Vests are increasingly mentioned, whose appearance in 2018
[00:49:38] was also provoked by the high cost of gasoline. This
[00:49:42] week, the Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Catherine Chabaud, with only promises
[00:49:45] of maximum subsidies and interest-free loans,
[00:49:48] managed, perhaps temporarily, to cope with large-scale protests.
[00:50:05] We have lifted the blockade, allowing ferries to pass right now, but only until Monday. Over
[00:50:09] the past year, diesel fuel prices in Europe have risen by
[00:50:12] 38%, kerosene by 100%,
[00:50:15] gas by 150%. In France on Friday, a liter of diesel at a gas station
[00:50:19] cost 2.89 cents.
[00:50:23] The government, it seems, does not realize the extent of the suffering of French
[00:50:26] workers and millions of motorists. 50% that we
[00:50:30] pay at the pump are taxes. Meanwhile, in
[00:50:33] a few days, a liter of diesel will cost, possibly, 3 euros.
[00:50:37] It is obvious that the French cannot keep up with the rising prices, and
[00:50:41] if measures are not taken now to strengthen the purchasing
[00:50:44] power of our compatriots, in
[00:50:47] particular, if taxes are not reduced, then not only
[00:50:50] will budget revenues from fuel collapse, but everything
[00:50:54] will stop completely, because people simply
[00:50:57] will not be able to fill their cars with gasoline. On Friday, the opposition
[00:51:01] demanded urgent measures from the president personally. Emmanuel Macron acknowledged
[00:51:05] the unbearable fuel prices in France and convened a Saint-Denis
[00:51:08] format, which in the Fifth Republic is synonymous with high-level meetings
[00:51:12] to discuss urgent issues. The media, however,
[00:51:15] doubted the goals of this discussion. Due to the start of the election race,
[00:51:19] Macron himself was pushed from the forefront. He invited candidates for
[00:51:23] his position at the Élysée Palace to remind them that the presidential campaign
[00:51:27] must be inextricably linked to the international
[00:51:30] agenda. He himself had previously explained to the French through
[00:51:33] social networks that he was actively conducting negotiations with world leaders in
[00:51:37] the interests of the country. Although the official position of the Élysée
[00:51:40] Palace is that the president intends only to guarantee
[00:51:44] the smooth conduct of elections, one of his closest associates shared
[00:51:47] with us the conviction: elections cannot be separated from the international
[00:51:51] situation. Another unspoken goal is to always be in
[00:51:54] the spotlight. Emmanuel Macron began his address to the nation following the Saint-Denis
[00:51:58] meeting with a warning to Russia: it would
[00:52:01] be a mistake to continue acting this way towards
[00:52:05] Europeans. He announced a plan to protect critical
[00:52:08] infrastructure from drone attacks and
[00:52:10] cyberattacks.
[00:52:13] In recent weeks, the Russian hybrid threat to Europeans and France
[00:52:16] has intensified. I warned about this several times. Recall February
[00:52:20] 2024, when at the meeting of the coalition of the willing, I
[00:52:23] warned, the very essence of the Russian threat is changing. A drone strike
[00:52:27] on a train connecting Kyiv and Warsaw, an attempted attack in
[00:52:30] Leipzig, which failed due to the reaction of the German side,
[00:52:34] an invasion of the airspace of several European countries,
[00:52:37] an increase in the number of acts of sabotage. The answer is absolutely clear:
[00:52:40] support for Ukraine and achieving a just and lasting peace.
[00:52:44] As for the historically high fuel prices that cause
[00:52:47] immense suffering, they are entirely and completely due to
[00:52:51] wars and the international situation," said Emmanuel Macron, in particular,
[00:52:55] the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. But Paris does not have
[00:52:59] the key to Hormuz. Confirming his status on the world stage, the French president announced
[00:53:02] his intention to contact ... that same day regarding
[00:53:06] fuel reserves at the pan-European level, and to convene
[00:53:09] the G7 at the leaders' level in the coming weeks. Macron
[00:53:12] declared himself a guarantor, rejecting the opposition's demand for financial assistance
[00:53:16] to the population, citing the danger of increasing the budget
[00:53:19] deficit or taxes. The country is
[00:53:22] clearly in an emergency social situation,
[00:53:25] but the president and prime minister have not announced any new
[00:53:29] measures. We are told that insufficient measures will
[00:53:32] continue, but we need a more decisive response: if
[00:53:36] there is no price freeze or wage increase,
[00:53:39] we will find ourselves in an extremely explosive
[00:53:42] social situation. Currently, in addition to promises to fishermen,
[00:53:46] Trade Minister Serge Papin announced the extension of subsidy
[00:53:49] payments of 100 euros to drivers who travel long
[00:53:52] distances for work. Earlier, Prime Minister Sebastian Lecornu
[00:53:56] promised assistance to the most affected sectors, including agriculture
[00:53:59] and construction. The discussion of financial issues at
[00:54:03] the government level is scheduled for Monday. It will clearly
[00:54:06] not be easy. France's financial situation is rapidly deteriorating. In
[00:54:10] 2026, the Fifth Republic will have to pay
[00:54:14] 65 billion euros in interest on public debt, which is
[00:54:17] 25% more than the previous year. In 2027,
[00:54:21] according to Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu, the maintenance of foreign
[00:54:25] debt alone will cost France 10 billion more and will amount
[00:54:29] to a total of 75 billion euros. Regina Sevastyanova,

[01:01:17] across the country has ended, polling stations are closed, now in
[01:01:21] the regions, counting is underway, in pre-election headquarters, interim
[01:01:24] results are being summarized. United Russia is preliminarily
[01:01:27] gaining almost 57% of the votes, followed
[01:01:30] by the Communist Party with almost 14%,
[01:01:33] LDPR with about nine, New People with eight, A Just Russia with
[01:01:37] 5. More than a third of the protocols have already
[01:01:40] been processed, according to the data from
[01:01:42] the CEC.
[01:01:47] Despite numerous provocations by the Kyiv regime, attacks on
[01:01:51] polling stations, over a hundred DDoS attacks on
[01:01:54] remote electronic voting, the elections took place, moreover, they set a record
[01:01:58] for turnout, which exceeded 56%. Millions of people
[01:02:02] came to the polls. Which parties will be represented in parliament, who
[01:02:06] is leading according to the first results, Elizaveta
[01:02:09] Khramtsova will tell.
[01:02:11] Russia has made its choice. Millions of voters, over
[01:02:15] 90 thousand polling stations, and
[01:02:18] 3 days to state what vector for the country's
[01:02:21] development the citizen considers the most correct. As is
[01:02:25] traditionally the case, to find out the first results that came from
[01:02:28] the eastern regions of the country, the whole
[01:03:00] So, judging by everything, five parties
[01:03:03] will still be represented in parliament. These
[01:03:06] are the same political forces that entered the State Duma five years
[01:03:10] earlier, but the balance of power, apparently, has changed. According to the most
[01:03:14] up-to-date data, United Russia confidently takes
[01:03:17] first place, with a preliminary result of about
[01:03:19] 57.5%.
[01:03:22] We, I think, all highly appreciate the result of the election
[01:03:26] campaign. Firstly, they surpassed, if we speak
[01:03:29] evaluatively, the results of 2021, a difficult
[01:03:32] period, but this is characteristic of our people,
[01:03:36] multinational, for the history of Russia, the more
[01:03:39] trials, the stronger the connection
[01:03:43] between peoples becomes, and Russia wins.
[01:03:46] The Communist Party preliminarily showed the second result.
[01:03:50] According to data from Sunday evening, the CPRF is gaining more than
[01:03:53] 13.5% of the votes. The LDPR also
[01:03:57] enters the new State Duma. This is
[01:04:44] an election to the State Duma. We hope for
[01:04:47] a good result. We traveled a lot, worked
[01:04:50] a lot, and were in contact with people a lot.
[01:04:54] A Just Russia will probably concede the fourth spot to the New
[01:04:57] People party, which entered parliament for the first time in...
[01:06:30] DDoS attacks on the digital infrastructures involved
[01:06:34] in the electoral process,
[01:06:37] specifically 135 attacks on the federal
[01:06:40] platform of remote electronic
[01:06:44] voting, 16 on the CEC
[01:06:47] website,
[01:06:49] 1968
[01:06:51] attacks on the infrastructure of e-government
[01:06:55] and 420 attacks on
[01:06:58] the infrastructure of Ros.
[01:07:01] Of those who registered for remote electronic voting,
[01:07:04] more than 90% cast their votes online, the Ministry of Digital Development reported.
[01:07:08] The overall turnout for the 2026
[01:07:11] election campaign is above 56%,
[01:07:15] the Sberkom center announced. The commission closely monitored
[01:07:18] reports of violations, and no report will go unnoticed,
[01:07:22] but there is no global impact on the elections.
[01:07:25] We roughly guess who, for obvious
[01:07:29] reasons, wants to prove, as it seems to me, that
[01:07:32] it is impossible to hold elections in these conditions. This was the main
[01:07:35] goal. We, on the contrary, prove that elections can and
[01:07:38] must be held, because these are
[01:07:41] planned procedures. They must take place within the legally
[01:07:44] defined deadlines, beyond these deadlines, the government becomes
[01:07:48] illegitimate. So, by 9 PM Moscow time,
[01:07:51] the Central Election Commission reported data obtained after processing
[01:07:54] almost 14% of the votes, but
[01:07:57] counting does not stop at night. You can monitor the update
[01:08:01] of data in real time. And it is already safe
[01:08:04] to say that by noon on Monday, in the capital's
[01:08:08] time zone, we will receive much more complete data.
[01:08:11] The next CEC is scheduled for 11 AM
[01:08:15] on Monday.
[01:08:18] Russians showed unprecedented consolidation in the elections, despite
[01:08:22] external pressure. This was stated by the head of the CEC, Pamfilova. It was especially
[01:08:25] noticeable in the regions of Donbass and Novorossiya, which voted in the
[01:08:29] parliamentary elections for the first time. However, the current campaign set
[01:08:33] several records at once. Its results were discussed at the press center
[01:08:37] of the Rossiya Segodnya media group as part of the all-Russian online marathon Election
[01:08:40] Night. Anton Potkovenko on the experts'
[01:08:43] assessments.
[01:08:46] This election night was extremely serious. The times dictate
[01:08:50] the mood. And the themes, and the analysis, there were many attempts to disrupt
[01:08:54] the election campaign, and the main counterargument was the high
[01:08:57] turnout, despite everything. The main result, clear immediately after the closing
[01:09:01] of the polling stations. As for the elections themselves,
[01:09:04] they are not just calm, they are very smooth. There are many
[01:09:08] international observers. By the way, some also came from
[01:09:11] unfriendly countries.
[01:09:18] A record has been broken in these elections for the number of international observers,
[01:09:21] 1,126 experts from 133 countries. Kostya
[01:09:25] Heiskanen, a Finnish war correspondent, observed how
[01:09:28] polling stations worked in Russian Crimea. In Simferopol, on
[01:09:32] the eighteenth, I observed at
[01:09:35] two polling stations how people went to vote, that no one was
[01:09:39] driving them there, so to speak, with a broom, they say.
[01:10:12] to all attempts to stifle it. Thus, we observe a democratic and
[01:10:16] fully active electoral event with the participation of all citizens. Terrorism
[01:10:20] and targeted attacks on civilians, the cynical handwriting of the Kyiv
[01:10:23] regime during the Russian elections manifested itself as clearly as possible. In
[01:10:27] the Kherson region, a Ukrainian Armed Forces drone attacked a bus. Two people died, including
[01:10:31] Olga Dimyanenko, a member of polling station commission number
[01:10:34] 220. The Investigative Committee opened a criminal case on the terrorist attack. At
[01:10:37] the Central Election Commission, they honored the memory of the victims with a minute of silence, and before
[01:10:41] that, they were extremely
[01:10:59] for our peaceful people, mostly for women, for children, I think, shame will fall on their heads, each of them will be
[01:11:03] found, I ask you to honor their memory
[01:11:06] with a minute of
[01:11:08] silence.
[01:11:18] In the Zaporozhye region, during a drone attack near a residential building, the chairman
[01:11:22] of Precinct No. 394 Elena Ostanina died. The President of Russia
[01:11:26] awarded her the Order of Courage posthumously. According to the head
[01:11:29] of the Central Election Commission, one of the polling stations in the Zaporozhye region will be named
[01:11:33] after Elena Ostanina. From another precinct in the village of Prishib.
[01:11:36] Also in Zaporozhye, only ruins remained. It was in the building of an operating
[01:11:40] school. Fortunately, at the time of the attack, there were no children inside. There were no casualties
[01:11:43] in the new regions, in the Russian borderlands. Despite all this, people went
[01:11:47] to vote essentially to the sound of air defense sirens in the Bryansk
[01:11:51] region, in Belgorod's Shebekino.
[01:11:54] under Grads, under drones, but whoever
[01:11:58] came, it's not scary, because we're used to this
[01:12:01] situation, after all, we're being protected. It seems that the
[01:12:05] higher the terrorist pressure from outside, the higher the turnout. War correspondent
[01:12:08] Elena Sokolova from the DPR says this so sincerely that...
[01:12:26] Kherson region, Zaporozhye, and Donetsk, Luhansk, and
[01:12:29] Crimea, how they are voting now, these are heroic people who are
[01:12:33] under drone attacks,
[01:12:35] they are now making their choice and contributing to the future of our
[01:12:39] country. High turnout is precisely the key.
[01:12:55] elections are taking place in a very difficult situation, when our enemies
[01:12:58] are trying to disrupt them, to intimidate not only the residents of Donbas,
[01:13:02] Novorossiya, but also our frontline regions.
[01:13:06] Russia will always win, even in such conditions, even in frontline
[01:13:09] regions, where our soldiers
[01:13:13] sometimes vote hundreds of meters from the line of combat resistance,
[01:13:16] it shows how mature our country is,
[01:13:20] how each of our citizens
[01:13:23] can and...
[01:13:55] a dozen and a half regions, quite important, among
[01:13:58] them there are densely populated ones, these are historical
[01:14:02] regions, and this is part of the frontline
[01:14:06] regions, including such densely populated ones
[01:14:09] as Krasnodar Krai, Rostov
[01:14:12] Oblast, Voronezh Oblast, and a number of others. In addition, of course,
[01:14:15] we did not conduct surveys in military
[01:14:19] units, and Dec. Therefore, I
[01:14:22] think that the result of United Russia will be
[01:14:25] higher than what we have shown, we also conducted an exit poll during
[01:14:29] these days, so, obviously,
[01:14:32] we still cannot boast
[01:14:35] such a resource as the Central Election Commission, but nevertheless, we also could not
[01:14:39] work with some social groups, like the military, we did not
[01:14:42] work in the new territories in
[01:14:46] border regions, we worked at
[01:14:49] 987
[01:14:51] polling stations in 58 subjects of the Russian
[01:14:55] Federation, we surveyed
[01:14:57] 137,657
[01:15:00] respondents. Let's focus on the main
[01:15:03] results. So, we predict, according to our exit
[01:15:07] poll data, the result of United Russia is
[01:15:09] 52.8. In second place,
[01:15:13] the Communist Party of the Russian Federation with a result of
[01:15:16] 14.8%.
[01:15:19] In third place is the Liberal Democratic Party with a result of
[01:15:23] 9.9.
[01:15:26] Election night is always a special meeting, more designed for informal
[01:15:29] communication, that is, there are no official speeches, most of those who came here
[01:15:33] today, they have known each other for a long time, so there is more dialogue,
[01:15:36] dialogue and, of course, disputes, because where have you seen two political scientists who
[01:15:40] would have a single opinion, but in fact, there is one opinion, in
[01:15:44] which almost everyone gathered here agrees, yes, everyone gathered here agrees
[01:15:48] on this, it is that those people who came to the polling
[01:15:51] stations, who expressed their civic position, and the turnout was
[01:15:55] genuinely high, that is the best,
[01:15:58] the strongest, clearest answer to external forces
[01:16:02] that tried to disrupt the elections in the Russian
[01:16:04] Federation, and they, despite everything, took place.
[01:16:08] Anton Potkovenko, Mikhail Vitkin and Mikhail Mirzayants,
[01:16:11] Vesti.
[01:16:14] Now about what is happening in the special operation zone, the fighters of the Northern
[01:16:18] group are systematically eliminating militants in the Reznikov cauldron of the Kharkiv region.
[01:16:22] In the encirclement, the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the area of
[01:16:37] in the Kyiv region, the targets were the workshops of the company,
[01:16:40] where long-range attack drones were assembled. After
[01:16:44] the arrivals, the Radionic radioelectronics plant stopped, the bimobile datacenter was also
[01:16:47] attacked, where reconnaissance data of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
[01:16:50] was stored. In the Sumy region, a fire engulfed the warehouses of the Rise
[01:16:54] company for... with spare parts for Ukrainian
[01:16:57] drones.
[01:17:00] Chancellor Merkel must resign, and the export of hydrocarbons from
[01:17:03] Russia must resume. With such statements, the leader
[01:17:07] of Alternative for Germany, Alice Weidel, spoke as the winner
[01:17:10] of the state elections in Mecklenburg West Pomerania. Moreover,
[01:17:14] Merkel's coalition could not even overcome
[01:17:17] the five-percent barrier to get seats in the Landtag. The chancellor's
[01:17:20] party is not in a better situation after the voting in Berlin from Germany.
[01:18:37] The CDU fought, but in the end the CDU suffered a
[01:18:40] defeat as a result of the exacerbation of relations between the SPD
[01:18:44] and the AFD. In our capital, here in Berlin,
[01:18:47] Stefan Evers found himself in a very difficult situation. He
[01:18:51] took over as the leading candidate and
[01:18:54] directly joined the election campaign. With
[01:18:57] full dedication, he led the CDU to a decent
[01:19:00] result. Merkel does not admit mistakes, immediately from the
[01:19:04] stage she declares that she will continue the reform. to form a government
[01:19:47] will be difficult for him, having won these elections
[01:19:51] Alternative for Germany received an additional
[01:19:54] 13 seats in the local
[01:19:56] parliament, the Social Democrats lost
[01:20:00] eight, however they still retain a majority for forming
[01:20:04] a government in this state, the opposition will have to seek
[01:20:08] a coalition, but the main intrigue is whether the Greens and
[01:20:11] the Left will join them? We are leading and, of course, want to remain
[01:20:15] leaders by the end of the evening. We want to become the most significant force. We
[01:20:19] have a mandate to govern here in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
[01:20:22] We will, of course, invite all parties, because it is not about us or about
[01:20:26] anyone else, not about a specific party, not about political
[01:20:29] privileges, it is about getting our federal state back on
[01:20:33] the right track, in this regard I expect other parties to...
[01:21:07] SPD principles for supporting Ukraine. In
[01:21:10] Alternative for Germany, they confirmed that Germany needs
[01:21:14] Russian gas, this is the basis of the business model of the entire
[01:21:17] country. In Berlin, the strong result of the left is very
[01:21:20] alarming, because they are campaigning to deprive people of
[01:21:23] property. We have a rent ceiling, that is, strong
[01:21:27] elements of socialist control, which contradicts
[01:21:30] a free market economy. We have another victory, and we
[01:21:33] plan to engage in international politics as well. We promised.
[01:21:41] In the Berlin elections, the Left is leading, followed by Merz's
[01:21:44] party, the AFD is third, residents of the German capital admit
[01:21:48] that Merz and his policy are no longer their
[01:21:51] chancellor. I would say that in today's
[01:21:54] situation with rising prices, those who are now in power and not
[01:21:58] letting go are to blame. We have no social policy, people
[01:22:02] are simply forced to work more, but that's not the solution, I
[01:22:05] would say that's what made Alternative for Germany so
[01:22:09] strong, because the CDU simply couldn't connect
[01:22:13] with the citizens who usually vote for them, so yes,
[01:22:17] Merz is definitely not my
[01:22:18] chancellor.
[01:22:21] I think he will stay until the end of his term, I don't think he will
[01:22:24] resign, I think he has too much ego for that. He
[01:22:28] said so many misogynistic things, he
[01:22:31] said Russian things, I don't
[01:22:33] respect him and don't consider him the chancellor of my country.
[01:22:37] for the parties that won these elections, the search for a coalition, without it the country
[01:22:41] faces protracted political chaos and new voting in
[01:22:44] the East, the example of Thuringia, Björn Höcke has already called for the dissolution
[01:22:48] of parliament and early elections in the state.
[01:22:51] Maria Skradyuka and Nadezhda Nefedova, Vesti
[01:22:54] Germany.
[01:22:56] In the North Atlantic, the main topic of this entire week is
[01:22:59] Greenland, in the South Atlantic, there are new and new twists
[01:23:03] surrounding the Falkland Islands. Britain controls them, but claims
[01:23:06] them. However, this dispute affects more and more
[01:23:10] states. Sergey Brilev summarizes the results of this week on
[01:23:13] the shores of the South Atlantic.
[01:23:16] The leading agricultural exhibition Expo Prado, which
[01:23:20] closes today, could have gone down in history with a new record for the number
[01:23:24] of berets on the heads of local livestock breeders. It could also
[01:23:27] have gone down in history for the kind of animals that livestock breeders brought
[01:23:31] to the pavilions of this exhibition in the Uruguayan capital Montevideo: their colorful, well-groomed, and
[01:23:35] purebred cows, and how carefully
[01:23:38] they comb their tails. But even those
[01:23:42] who find it hard to tear themselves away from the feast of livestock breeding, well, excuse me, from that
[01:23:46] feast that this science promotes, even those looked
[01:23:49] around for something else: a sign that says "food,"
[01:23:52] stylized like the London Underground logo. But it's not
[01:23:56] limited to just that. So, the pavilion of the United
[01:23:59] Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland,
[01:24:02] opened right here, includes some familiar things, but
[01:24:06] when, after the bright sun, the eyes adjust to the indoor lighting,
[01:24:10] it turns out, it turns out that among the stands
[01:24:13] of the British Crown, there is one about the South Atlantic,
[01:24:17] specifically about the Falkland Islands, not
[01:24:20] the Malvinas, as they are called in South America, and we are again
[01:24:24] in South American Uruguay, in Argentina
[01:24:28] they protest.
[01:24:38] Argentine President Javier Milei addressed the people this Friday in the city
[01:24:41] of Bahía Blanca after sending a bill to Congress on Thursday
[01:24:44] that toughens sanctions against companies, even those so dear to
[01:24:48] Milei's Israel. The company developing the shelf of the disputed
[01:24:51] islands, to check for hydrocarbons there. Well, for
[01:24:55] all Argentines, the Malvinas are sacred. Even
[01:24:59] the Mercopress portal, which specializes in news about
[01:25:02] the disputed archipelago, recognizes this. The statements
[01:25:05] followed an episode at the World Cup in July. Then,
[01:25:09] let's recall, the "Malvinas are Argentine" poster was not afraid
[01:25:13] to be unfurled even by those Argentine players who are associated with English
[01:25:16] clubs after the victory over England. But there are also...
[01:26:20] However, the British are not sitting idle either.
[01:26:24] Venezuelan Plenipotentiary President, Delcy
[01:26:27] Rodríguez, is the person a new Ambassador of the United
[01:26:30] Kingdom came to visit these days, where Venezuela's gold reserves are kept. And even more
[01:26:34] so, London is active on the issue of the disputed islands in the South Atlantic.
[01:26:38] And for the new British Prime Minister, the Falklands are, of course,
[01:26:41] British. Fortunately, the existing inhabitants of the archipelago
[01:26:45] want to be British. Even if the main English-language
[01:26:48] newspaper...
[01:26:51] Back in 1965, the UN ruled that the right to
[01:26:54] self-determination is inapplicable because the population arrived after the territory
[01:26:58] was colonized, and therefore this is a special and separate
[01:27:02] case of colonization. Be that as it may, the British set up a corner of
[01:27:06] the Falkland Islands at the agricultural exhibition in
[01:27:08] Montevideo. To additional questions about what he called
[01:27:12] "fake news," Uruguayan President Orce had to answer,
[01:27:16] about what seemed to be that it was through Uruguay that the disputed archipelago would get a new...
[01:27:22] We have not received any such proposals, nothing
[01:27:24] of the sort. The Malvinas belong to Argentina, this is
[01:27:28] Uruguay's historical position. This is interesting,
[01:27:31] not only does Churchill look
[01:27:34] from Montevideo towards Argentina, even at
[01:27:38] an earlier stage, it was in Montevideo, in the British
[01:27:41] cemetery, that the symbolism emerged that Queen
[01:27:44] Victoria also looks in a special
[01:27:47] direction, now, now, in which one? Today, at this
[01:27:51] cemetery, we are interested in one of the biggest secrets in all of
[01:27:54] South America, in that yellow
[01:27:57] chapel. Well, while we walk to the chapel,
[01:28:00] let's explain. Not only then was it easiest for British
[01:28:04] colonists from the disputed islands of the South Atlantic to reach the
[01:28:07] mainland via Montevideo. That's why we will
[01:28:10] now see a plaque that also says "Falklands" in Montevideo.
[01:28:14] But let's look at the map.
[01:28:17] So, back in Spanish colonial times.
[01:28:32] Uruguay, meaning the Malvinas, are
[01:28:35] Uruguayan. Uruguayan authorities have long said that
[01:28:39] no, they are Argentine, so what to
[01:28:41] conclude with?
[01:28:45] Yes, let some seemingly simple farmers, temporarily removing their berets,
[01:28:48] participate in a digital auction in Montevideo for the purchase of
[01:28:52] cattle. Our prediction is that the closer it gets to the elections in
[01:28:55] neighboring Argentina, the more we will hear about the disputed
[01:28:58] islands in the South Atlantic.
[01:29:02] with the assistance of Gabriela Casulo, Vesti from Latin America.
[01:35:15] The citizens of the country, despite provocations, the open aggression
[01:35:18] of the Kyiv regime, voted in the elections to the State
[01:35:22] Duma. Vladimir Putin participated in the online voting, right
[01:35:26] from his office in the Kremlin. In the president's focus, issues of
[01:35:30] domestic development of the country, affordable gas, the state of the economy
[01:35:33] of the largest in the history of domestic aviation, a contract for
[01:35:36] the supply of MS-21 aircraft. And on
[01:35:39] the eve of Gunsmith's Day, Vladimir Putin presented awards in the Kremlin
[01:35:42] to outstanding workers of the defense
[01:35:45] industrial complex and held a meeting of the military-industrial
[01:35:48] commission. The President recalled the growing external
[01:35:51] threats, that the Ukrainian government has long degenerated
[01:35:54] into a dictatorship, about the statements of Western
[01:35:57] politicians who are preparing for war with
[01:36:00] Russia. The Kyiv regime long ago canceled elections in its own country, but as we
[01:36:04] see, it is trying to obstruct voting in Russia, and
[01:36:07] European politicians are providing weapons for this, it is noteworthy
[01:36:10] that Putin twice, in fact, in just
[01:36:14] one week... issued a warning to the increasingly
[01:36:17] belligerent European Union. Let's look at everything
[01:36:45] where they officially recognized fuel prices as
[01:36:48] unbearable,
[01:36:50] we suffer from the consequences, but they wanted to make life unbearable,
[01:36:54] to make Russians suffer, everything will boomerang
[01:36:58] back, instead of listening, we turn the valve,
[01:37:01] to long-standing advice to receive Russian
[01:37:04] gas again, just press the button, they draw an image of
[01:37:08] an enemy from Russia, and the situation, apparently, is very serious
[01:37:11] and dangerous, because in fact, twice in one week,
[01:37:15] Putin issued warnings to European
[01:37:18] leaders, it makes you want to say to them, let's
[01:37:21] live together in peace, otherwise we will also have
[01:37:25] to respond, this should be obvious to everyone,
[01:37:29] understandable, it won't be otherwise, now they are saying that they are thinking
[01:37:32] about sending troops into Ukraine, this means war with
[01:37:36] Russia, we are not going to fight with Europe, but if Europe suddenly
[01:37:40] wants to fight with us and starts, we are ready
[01:37:43] right now. The question is,
[01:37:45] "if Europe suddenly starts a war with you, it's not
[01:37:48] Ukraine, it's not a war in the direct, modern sense of
[01:37:52] the word, if Europe suddenly wants to start a war with us
[01:37:56] and starts it, then a situation can quickly arise
[01:37:59] in which we will have no one to negotiate with. And the logical
[01:38:02] question is: are we preparing for them
[01:38:05] preparing for war with us? Firstly, as for
[01:38:09] the statements of European politicians that they are preparing
[01:38:12] for war with Russia, this is nonsense."
[01:38:16] "This is allegedly done in connection with Russia's aggressive
[01:38:19] plans towards Western European
[01:38:22] countries, this is a lie,
[01:38:25] this is a crude, brazen lie, and as Goebbels
[01:38:29] said in his time, the more incredible the lie,
[01:38:32] the faster people will believe it, Russia has never had any
[01:38:36] aggressive intentions towards European countries, and the tragedy
[01:38:40] that is unfolding in Ukraine is their doing,
[01:38:43] it is the result of their..." to policy, Ukraine allegedly
[01:38:46] defends European values, democracy,
[01:38:50] well, how can the current regime in Ukraine defend
[01:38:53] democracy when it has long since degenerated into
[01:38:56] a dictatorship? And no one talks about it,
[01:38:59] elections are not held in Ukraine, power
[01:39:02] is usurped by a handful of embezzlers,
[01:39:05] corrupt officials who need war to
[01:39:09] stay in power without elections,
[01:39:11] to continue creating conditions for plundering their own
[01:39:15] people, and this thoroughly corrupt
[01:39:18] regime, is it the main
[01:39:21] defender of democracy in Europe, what are they pushing
[01:39:25] the peoples of their countries towards
[01:39:27] not with the Russian Federation, and I understand that the citizens of European
[01:39:31] countries understand what is happening,
[01:39:33] this, I think, is the basis of today's
[01:39:37] results of the Federal Republic and the trends of political
[01:39:41] processes in Europe as a whole, but instead of stopping,
[01:39:44] listening to their citizens, who in the elections make it
[01:39:48] clear that they do not want any war with Russia,
[01:39:52] these leaders nevertheless continue to escalate the situation further,
[01:39:56] the Ukrainians themselves... are used as cannon fodder,
[01:39:59] they also paid attention to the next exercises
[01:40:02] in the Baltic Sea, the goal, among
[01:40:06] other things, is to practice seizing civilian
[01:40:09] ships, well, this is normal, they always talk about observing the norms
[01:40:13] of international law, and they are preparing to
[01:40:15] seize civilian ships, while the
[01:40:19] same people express so-called
[01:40:22] concern and condemn everything that is happening in the Strait of Hormuz and Bab
[01:40:25] al-Mandab.
[01:40:29] We were not involved in this, but we suffer from the consequences. The Strait of Hormuz
[01:40:33] remains virtually
[01:40:34] blocked.
[01:40:38] The closure of the Strait of Hormuz occurred, and we once again felt the bitter price
[01:40:42] of our interdependence on imported fossil
[01:40:45] fuels.
[01:40:48] I just want to tell them, let's rather live
[01:40:51] in harmony, otherwise we will also have
[01:40:54] to answer, this should be clear to
[01:40:58] everyone,
[01:41:00] it won't be otherwise,
[01:41:05] an important, especially now day, Gunsmith's Day.
[01:41:08] Putin reports that the production of weapons and ammunition
[01:41:12] has increased 22-fold, including high-precision missiles
[01:41:15] and shells. And at another Kremlin event,
[01:41:19] a real
[01:41:21] boom was announced.
[01:41:28] In Russian aviation, the largest order in modern history
[01:41:31] заказ
[01:41:34] for new airliners - 90 new MS-21 aircraft. Essentially,
[01:41:38] we are talking about a large-scale long-term
[01:41:41] contract. The beautiful aircraft are being photographed for memory on such a
[01:41:45] day
[01:41:48] by the legendary designer Inozemtsev, because his
[01:41:51] engines are here, the engine that was made under
[01:41:54] the leadership of our today's hero of labor. Nothing
[01:41:58] similar has been done for 30 years, everything
[01:42:01] has been checked,
[01:42:03] tested over the years, by the end of next year there will be 13 engines,
[01:42:07] full-scale tests, thank God,
[01:42:10] thank you, now
[01:42:11] теперь
[01:42:14] to the sky, a significant step in the development of the industry,
[01:42:18] very significant, I am in love with this plane, I think,
[01:42:21] it is unique that we are
[01:42:25] the only country that...
[01:42:33] there are components that, before us, were produced by one company in the world, and we, essentially,
[01:42:37] became the second producers in the world, that is, we covered such a path in a very short
[01:42:41] period, to which such monopolies went for many decades, and we
[01:42:45] were able to do it in just a few years, Russian airlines
[01:42:48] are now
[01:42:52] lining up for new aircraft, but before, I
[01:42:56] just want to...
[01:42:58] with their leaders, as Putin once said, he had to
[01:43:02] argue, I want to understand how
[01:43:04] many domestic aircraft Aeroflot will buy,
[01:43:06] otherwise you want to dominate the domestic market
[01:43:10] market, you don't want to buy domestic equipment, that won't do, we are
[01:43:14] buying, little,
[01:43:17] and good, we will prepare such a project and I will report to you, just like that
[01:43:20] on these ramps, as they promise in a little over
[01:43:24] a year, passengers will board new... MS-21 aircraft
[01:43:28] will fly, and
[01:43:31] pilots from their cockpits
[01:43:34] will wave like that, yes, to ground services,
[01:43:37] a technological breakthrough is absolutely, so to speak,
[01:43:41] an indicator of technological sovereignty, Aeroflot took on
[01:43:44] aircraft will arrive at new
[01:43:47] Russian airports, already built or modernized,
[01:43:51] dozens, and there will be 75, I want
[01:43:53] to thank everyone again for their work and for...
[01:44:10] air terminal complexes,
[01:44:25] I wish you further success,
[01:44:28] like Russia, the largest in the
[01:44:31] world, and nowhere in the farthest corner
[01:44:35] should people feel like they are on an island, event after event all week,
[01:44:38] One after
[01:44:41] another. Economic meeting. A new
[01:44:45] budget is being drafted based on oil prices of 50 dollars per
[01:44:48] barrel. This looks, perhaps, even
[01:44:51] ultraconservative, but reliable. At the same time, we, of course, see
[01:44:55] how oil prices are rising in global markets. We expect that oil and gas
[01:44:58] budget revenues will also increase. Putin
[01:45:02] holds a teleconference on gasification. One of the residents
[01:45:04] spoke about significant savings on utility bills.
[01:45:08] with the saved money, I think that
[01:45:11] you are making a good gift, I am ready to join this too,
[01:45:15] congratulations on your golden wedding anniversary sister-in-law. From Europe, all
[01:45:19] week come completely different news, gasoline prices, gas, there
[01:45:22] are breaking new records, so much so that publicly they almost cry,
[01:45:26] Von der Leyen and Macron, and of course, everyone around
[01:45:29] is to blame, but not themselves. Any blockades
[01:45:32] have direct consequences for our daily life. French people
[01:45:36] feel them at gas stations because of prices that have become
[01:45:39] unbearable. But the same Macron has been supporting
[01:45:42] blockade attempts for several years, everything will come back like a boomerang, Russian oil
[01:45:46] and gas for Europeans, suffering from unbearable
[01:45:49] prices, their leaders actually assured that Russians
[01:45:53] would suffer. Direct quote:
[01:45:55] make them suffer, make them suffer,
[01:45:59] such humanists, they flooded the Kyiv regime with weapons
[01:46:02] for some reason, they thought that the results would not affect
[01:46:05] them at all.
[01:46:07] Russian factories are being attacked from. Ukraine and diesel prices are rising
[01:46:11] because there are difficulties with its supply
[01:46:15] from there, this affects the whole world, we must stop
[01:46:18] this. It turns out that the Kyiv regime
[01:46:21] is actually biting the hand that feeds it, precisely
[01:46:25] the hand of the European Union. The European Union provides the Kyiv
[01:46:29] regime with endless assistance,
[01:46:31] with weapons and money. The Kyiv regime creates problems for
[01:46:35] the European Union, one after another. This is a very dangerous game,
[01:46:39] especially today. Why
[01:46:47] don't European regimes tell the Kyiv regime, "You,
[01:46:51] friends, don't behave like this," because the situation in the gas markets is such
[01:46:54] what it is, the situation is very strange, because I rules, this creates
[01:46:58] confidence in Europe's energy security, but
[01:47:01] European leaders decided that
[01:47:04] firmly fixed prices were not needed, and it was better to...
[01:47:07] European elites provoke chaos. in which they are trying to
[01:47:11] drag in more and such and such price determination
[01:47:14] you don't want to buy our gas, what will you heat with, firewood, this was
[01:47:18] a strategic mistake of Europe, and
[01:47:21] a socket, the government decided to increase oil and gas production within
[01:47:25] the country, now that they have abandoned our energy carriers, it has become
[01:47:29] better, we are suffering from the consequences, now please
[01:47:32] shave, you got the desired result, as simply as possible,
[01:47:35] clear, just press the button. Several times over
[01:47:39] the past few years, I have directly told Europeans, just
[01:47:43] press the button and
[01:47:47] everything started. Russian gas you can get it even
[01:47:50] tomorrow. This is not a joke, just
[01:47:53] press the button. And the gas went, because one string
[01:47:56] of the northern flow is intact and unharmed. Here is the decision
[01:47:59] today, tomorrow we turn the valve, that's it, and
[01:48:03] the gas went. Even in conditions of incredible tension,
[01:48:06] Russia is ready to follow its long-proclaimed.
[01:48:10] Russia is a reliable partner and never, even in the most difficult
[01:48:14] period for itself of economic development, has
[01:48:17] let down its counter-partners in
[01:48:21] Europe, but European leaders seem to be mocking their own
[01:48:24] citizens. Russia, such an evil Russia,
[01:48:28] has stopped supplying energy to Europe, no, we did not
[01:48:32] stop, Europe just refused
[01:48:35] to buy hoping that everything would
[01:48:38] collapse here, but... they already realized that
[01:48:42] nothing collapsed, but enough, no, so many
[01:48:45] statements have already been made that it is difficult to change this
[01:48:48] position, but still now European politicians suddenly
[01:48:51] remembered nuclear power plants, although earlier they just as decisively banned
[01:48:55] them, the government decided to resume the development
[01:48:59] of nuclear energy, only in 2026 they
[01:49:03] recognized that it was a mistake, I generally don't understand, what will you
[01:49:06] heat with, you don't want gas, you don't develop nuclear energy?
[01:49:10] the community can only be pitied now,
[01:49:13] no, I'm serious, they drove
[01:49:16] themselves into dead-end situations in many directions, well, how many
[01:49:20] times have we talked to them about the necessity of preserving
[01:49:23] the relations that have developed between us in
[01:49:26] energy, there is nothing more stable than long-term
[01:49:30] contracts, tied to the market price of oil, which is important for our
[01:49:34] European consumers, they can be sure that such a volume
[01:49:38] will definitely be supplied within such and such a period, according to
[01:49:42] определения цены будет поставлен, это создаёт уверенность в
[01:49:45] энергобезопасности Европы, но европейские лидеры посчитали, что
[01:49:49] твёрдо прописанные цены им не нужны, а лучше и...
[01:51:22] goes, that they are getting rid of their own former
[01:51:25] well-being, now that they have abandoned our energy carriers,
[01:51:28] it has become better, they did it,
[01:51:32] it's like buying a ticket and not going, to spite the conductor,
[01:51:36] it's nonsense, you see, nonsense, further
[01:51:40] use of sanctions policy can lead to even more
[01:51:43] severe, without exaggeration, even
[01:51:46] catastrophic consequences on the global energy market, they are trying
[01:51:50] to limit our energy carriers, and... again
[01:51:52] prices have skyrocketed, inflation is already being called by my name,
[01:51:56] and we have nothing to do with it, no,
[01:51:59] seriously, they, but yes, but it's true,
[01:52:02] and now covering, excuse me, the girls here will forgive me, trying
[01:52:06] to cover their own place, so, everything
[01:52:09] is shifted to Russia, and now with the silent consent of the same
[01:52:13] European leaders, the entire Middle
[01:52:16] East has been destabilized,
[01:52:32] all key supplies generally already from all leading exporters,
[01:52:36] and this is in a situation where the world has entered an era of artificial
[01:52:39] intelligence, and it devours energy resources in huge
[01:52:43] quantities. The energy consumption of data centers in the world
[01:52:46] is already comparable to all heavy industry, well, to top it
[01:52:50] all off, the cherry on the cake for the entire global energy industry
[01:52:54] could be the adoption in the USA of the law on hellish
[01:52:57] sanctions, the law has been adopted now, and the attitude to such
[01:53:01] initiatives in Moscow was formulated quite
[01:53:04] a long time ago. And why do the United States themselves buy, and
[01:53:08] for others to buy our energy carriers, they seem
[01:53:11] to try to prohibit it. The answer is simple, what
[01:53:14] is allowed to Jupiter is not allowed to a bull,
[01:53:18] but
[01:53:20] neither China, nor... India,
[01:53:22] even if you consider that in India cows are sacred
[01:53:26] animals, they don't want to be bulls, there are such
[01:53:30] political figures, primarily in Europe, who are ready to be
[01:53:33] both a bull, a goat,
[01:53:37] a ram, there are such, we won't
[01:53:40] point fingers, there is a well-known fairy tale, freeze, freeze,
[01:53:43] wolf's tail, so if Europeans go this
[01:53:47] way, then they will feel like
[01:53:51] these famous characters. In the fairy tale, wolf, who is here? The wolf
[01:53:54] is the one who lowered his tail into the ice hole in winter trying
[01:53:58] to catch a fish there, in this case in muddy water,
[01:54:02] that's who, they will freeze. European politicians,
[01:54:05] who plunged their countries into crises, continue to teach
[01:54:08] democracy to others, and sharply express themselves now about the elections to
[01:54:12] the State Duma, and the Kyiv regime controlled by them, which long ago simply
[01:54:16] canceled elections at home, is trying to disrupt voting in Russia
[01:54:19] with drone attacks against civilian targets. And people,
[01:54:23] representatives of the Kyiv regime leadership in Kyiv speak
[01:54:27] of peace, they offer to resume alleged
[01:54:29] negotiations, but they themselves committing crimes of this kind,
[01:54:33] do everything to... ensure that there is no peace and
[01:54:36] no negotiations, because otherwise it's unclear why they are doing
[01:54:40] this at all, to intimidate us, it is obvious to everyone that this is impossible, your
[01:54:44] choice and will will again show that behind
[01:54:47] our fighters are millions of people, that we
[01:54:51] are a united people, that no one will be able to split and intimidate us,
[01:54:55] undermine our statehood and
[01:54:57] socio-political system, this will be our common answer
[01:55:01] to those who want to weaken Russia, to restrain its
[01:55:04] development. Our sovereignty and the right to independently
[01:55:07] determine our destiny, our common contribution to
[01:55:11] Russia's victory, Putin, like many, voted online,
[01:55:15] you won't make a mistake, and although you won't make a mistake, he still
[01:55:18] studied the electronic ballots for
[01:55:21] voting with interest, then made his
[01:55:29] plans for next week? A regional trip is not excluded,
[01:55:32] the president will also hold a meeting with members of the government and the Security Council,
[01:55:36] it is clear that there will be many
[02:01:00] has ended, polling stations are closed, counting is now underway in the regions,
[02:01:03] in the election headquarters they are summing up interim results: United
[02:01:07] Russia is preliminarily gaining almost 58% of the votes,
[02:01:10] followed by the CPRF - almost 14%, LDPR
[02:01:14] - about nine, New People eight Just Russia.
[02:01:27] Despite numerous provocations by the Kyiv regime,
[02:01:30] attacks on polling stations and over a hundred DDoS attacks on
[02:01:34] remote electronic voting, the elections
[02:01:37] took place, moreover, they set a record for turnout, which
[02:01:41] exceeded 56%, which parties will be represented in
[02:01:45] parliament, who is leading according to the data?
[02:01:51] Russia made its choice, millions of voters, over
[02:01:54] 90,000 polling stations and 3 days to
[02:01:58] declare which vector for the country's development the citizen
[02:02:01] considers the most correct. As is traditionally
[02:02:04] the case, to find out the first results coming from the eastern
[02:02:08] regions of the country, all of Russia waits for the elections to end in
[02:02:11] Kaliningrad Oblast, and as soon as the polling stations closed in the westernmost
[02:02:15] subject,
[02:02:37] That is, voting at all levels of elections throughout the country, including Kaliningrad,
[02:02:40] has ended. So, apparently, five parties will still be represented
[02:02:44] in parliament, these are the same political ones.
[02:03:17] in Russia's history, the greater the trials, the stronger
[02:03:21] the bond between peoples
[02:03:23] and Russia achieves victory. The Communist
[02:03:27] Party preliminarily showed the second result, according
[02:03:30] to data for Sunday evening, the CPRF gained more than
[02:03:33] 13.5% of the votes. The LDPR
[02:03:37] also passes into the new composition of the State Duma, so far the party's result
[02:03:40] is more than 9%. The president
[02:03:43] has always stated this, and we will do everything to...
[02:03:58] more than five thousand candidates for
[02:04:00] deputies from Kamchatka to Kaliningrad, we worked directly on the ground in labor
[02:04:03] collectives and I want to thank the team
[02:04:07] and all citizens who actively supported us in
[02:04:10] the elections.
[02:04:13] The entire company was built on direct contact, on direct contacts with people. This
[02:04:17] was the work provided in this election
[02:04:21] campaign, an important election campaign for any political party, these are elections to
[02:04:24] the State Duma, we hope for a good
[02:04:27] result, we traveled a lot, worked a lot, spent a lot of time with people
[02:04:30] in contact, so Just Russia will probably
[02:04:33] cede the fourth position to the "New People" party, which entered
[02:04:36] parliament for the first time following the 2021 campaign,
[02:04:40] the youngest party in the State Duma managed to improve its result, preliminarily,
[02:04:44] it's almost 8%, for the Just Russians a little more than
[02:04:47] five, the mood is good, I see in my headquarters, because it is clear that
[02:04:51] the party's results have grown since 2021, meaning
[02:04:55] that for 5 years we were doing business, and... not slacking,
[02:04:57] yes, because we made party
[02:05:01] projects, the party of hundreds of people became tens
[02:05:04] of thousands of people, party members, we have many candidates,
[02:05:08] now headquarters are deployed, not only in the capitals of the regions, but in many
[02:05:12] cities, this is a lot of work,
[02:05:15] overall I must say that
[02:05:18] the elections were legitimate, transparent
[02:05:22] and honest, and the turnout is much
[02:05:25] higher than in 2021, well, as
[02:05:28] people say - this is our answer to Berlin,
[02:05:32] because they really hoped that we
[02:05:35] would falter, that we would be scared, that there would be
[02:05:37] a low turnout, that the elections would almost not be legitimate,
[02:05:41] would be disrupted, we did everything absolutely
[02:05:44] correctly. Despite strong pressure
[02:05:47] on the information infrastructure on the federal
[02:05:50] remote electronic voting platform,
[02:05:53] 3,300,000 people were able to cast their
[02:05:56] votes. During the period from the start of voting. September
[02:06:00] 18th until 8:00 PM
[02:06:04] today, in total, over 3,000
[02:06:07] DDoS attacks were recorded on
[02:06:11] the digital infrastructures involved in the
[02:06:14] election process,
[02:06:17] in particular, 135 attacks on the federal
[02:06:20] platform, remote electronic
[02:06:24] voting, 16 on the CEC
[02:06:27] website, 1.
[02:06:30] 968 attacks on the electronic
[02:06:33] government infrastructure and 420
[02:06:36] attacks on the Rostelecom
[02:06:39] infrastructure. Of those who registered for
[02:06:42] remote electronic voting, over 90% cast their votes online,
[02:06:46] according to the Ministry of Digital Development. And the overall turnout
[02:06:49] for the 2026 election campaign is above
[02:06:52] 56%, according to the Central Election Commission. The
[02:06:56] commission closely monitored reports of violations. Not a single
[02:07:00] message will be ignored, but there is no global
[02:07:03] impact on the elections. Approximately, we guess
[02:07:07] who, it's clear why, because
[02:07:09] to prove, as it seems to me, that elections cannot be held in these conditions,
[02:07:13] this was the main goal. We are proving
[02:07:16] the opposite, that elections not only can, but must
[02:07:19] be held, because these are planned procedures, they must
[02:07:22] take place within a certain legal timeframe, outside
[02:07:26] these timeframes, the government becomes illegitimate. So,
[02:08:00] tighten the ring of encirclement, not allowing
[02:08:03] the Ukrainian Armed Forces to leave the cauldron. According to the Ministry of Defense, battles are currently
[02:08:07] underway for the village of Buzovo. In other
[02:08:10] directions, the groups improved their positions, in turn
[02:08:13] the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost about 1,400 militants
[02:08:16] per day in all areas
[02:08:18] of the special operation.
[02:08:21] In the port of Odesa, Russian military hit a dry cargo ship with
[02:08:24] property that was intended to equip
[02:08:27] the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Not far from there, in the settlement...
[02:08:49] Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš recorded a video message
[02:08:52] against Europe's support for the conflict in Ukraine, he sharply
[02:08:56] criticized European politicians, urging the EU to refrain.
[02:09:30] hydrocarbons from Russia will resume, with such
[02:09:32] statements came out the leader of Alternative for
[02:09:35] Germany Alice Weidel on the rights
[02:09:38] of the winner of the state elections in Mecklenburg
[02:09:41] before the Pomeranian election, she has 38.3%
[02:09:45] of the votes, while Merz's coalition could not even
[02:09:48] overcome the five-percent barrier to win seats in
[02:09:51] the Landtag. 4.9% of the votes
[02:09:54] is the worst result for Christian Democrats in the entire history of state
[02:09:58] elections. As a result, the leader of the AfD.
[02:10:42] has already called the results in two regions a catastrophe, while he made
[02:10:46] it clear that he would not resign from the chancellorship,
[02:10:48] on the contrary, he intends to carry out reforms in
[02:10:51] the country.
[02:10:54] Donald Trump's words about creating artificial intelligence forces
[02:10:57] caught representatives of the technology industry
[02:11:01] of the United States of America by surprise, Politico writes about this. What
[02:11:05] exactly is the American leader's initiative in the industry, no one
[02:11:08] really understood, while the overwhelming majority of ordinary
[02:11:11] Americans consider it a real scenario in which artificial intelligence
[02:11:15] will destroy humanity. The line between a step into the future and
[02:11:19] safety was sought by Emil
[02:11:20] Mirsaev.
[02:11:23] Donald Trump is forming so-called AI forces, the US President announced
[02:11:27] a new structure modeled after the Space Force, which he created in his first
[02:11:30] term. What it will do, he did not specify, but he promised to name
[02:11:33] the head in his formulation, "AI Czar." This is what they call
[02:11:36] a circulating advisor in the White House.
[02:11:40] The previous AI Czar left in March, and the post has been
[02:11:44] vacant since then. The requirement for a successor is one: we will
[02:11:46] not in any way hinder or stifle the growth of this incredible industry, on the contrary,
[02:11:50] we will nurture it, help it, and watch over it as it
[02:11:54] grows, but we will seek out the bad and it's very easy to do with
[02:11:57] the help of our existing system of criminal and civil
[02:12:01] justice, for this I am forming AI forces, and in the near future
[02:12:04] I will announce the name of the AI Czar, applications are accepted only from people with
[02:12:08] a high IQ. IQ is currently the only known characteristic
[02:12:11] of the new structure, neither budget nor powers.
[02:12:15] The Space Force, which the president refers to, was established by Congress and
[02:12:18] a new branch of service will not appear without its approval, and
[02:12:21] the industry, which the AI forces apparently should protect, learned about the innovations from
[02:12:25] social networks. Four representatives of the sector told Politico that
[02:12:29] the industry was not notified of the decision in advance. No one even
[02:12:33] understands what this idea is," said one of them. And the comparison with
[02:12:36] the Space Force led at least one source
[02:12:40] of the publication to believe that the structure.
[02:12:56] agreed in a few hours. Trump called their
[02:12:59] fears a mystification. Also, apparently, ordinary users think so too.
[02:13:03] Four subscribers of ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, and Gemini sued all
[02:13:07] four companies for too synchronized
[02:13:10] agreement. The plaintiffs dispute
[02:13:13] what is prohibited by antitrust law, an agreement between competitors on how
[02:13:17] quickly their competing products will be improved. Congress
[02:13:20] did not grant any exception for such an agreement. Slowing down
[02:13:24] alone is possible, together it's already a cartel. It is noteworthy that the head of Anthropic in his
[02:13:27] essay asked the government for an exception from antitrust norms, explaining
[02:13:31] this by the interests of national security. The answer
[02:13:34] came from the Senate. There is no scenario in which
[02:13:38] I will agree to give the most powerful campaigns in the history
[02:13:41] of mankind. in a large group of three or four
[02:13:44] antitrust exceptions, so that they can, what,
[02:13:48] collude with each other, this will not happen. While
[02:13:51] Washington argues about an acceptable pace, models set it themselves. The Wall Street
[02:13:55] Journal found out that already in May Gemini from Google from the test environment
[02:13:58] penetrated into the internal systems of three real companies. In one case,
[02:14:02] the model picked up a password, in two others it found keys in an open
[02:14:05] repository. Google learned about this in late July, and only told
[02:14:09] about it now after a journalist's question, saying,
[02:14:12] "there was nothing to worry about, we made sure that all three organizations were aware
[02:14:16] and together with our testing partner worked out
[02:14:20] changes that he has already made to his
[02:14:22] procedures. These events highlight how important it is
[02:14:26] to train powerful artificial intelligence models
[02:14:28] to act responsibly. In this case, the model behaved
[02:14:32] correctly, correctly, because it stopped, realizing the mistake, the company's
[02:14:35] Claude in the summer in the same situation did not stop, models
[02:14:39] Open AI from the so-called sandbox.
[02:14:43] Meta also has a similar case, thus human superiority is no longer
[02:14:47] a forecast by developers, but a line in a vulnerability report. Trump,
[02:14:51] however, sees this not as a problem, but as inspiration for a new name
[02:14:54] and technology, saying that artificial intelligence sounds inaccurate and not
[02:14:58] eloquent, among the new options - extreme,
[02:15:01] supreme or superior, the last option is leading in the polls,
[02:15:05] whom will it surpass first, Congress, the court or its own
[02:15:08] creators, the question is still open. Emil Mirsaev, Vesti.
[02:15:37] First of all, I want to congratulate everyone, especially my guests in
[02:15:41] the studio, it was not easy, it is always
[02:15:44] responsible, election campaigns are always very serious, especially
[02:15:48] when the country is at war, the country
[02:15:51] is winning, 3 days of voting are over.
