[00:00:00] The restoration is more than 35.00 square
[00:00:03] m2, the most complex in terms of
[00:00:06] restoration of the adaptation is building
[00:00:09] three, this is a large building, more than
[00:00:12] 15.00 km, eight stories
[00:00:15] high, and there simultaneously both
[00:00:18] restoration and constructive and engineering
[00:00:21] works are taking place. In Moscow in recent years, restoration
[00:00:25] has ceased to be just work with the past, today it is also a precise
[00:00:29] science and a high art, a bold engineering challenge,
[00:00:32] which preserves the city's historical
[00:00:35] appearance.
[00:00:45] At any age, it is important to know what to do with money, but only one in four
[00:00:49] knows about накопительная pension funds. Find out all about them in the
[00:00:52] Sberbank Online pension calculation
[00:03:02] NATO in Lavra. Representatives of the military bloc arrived in Kyiv and
[00:03:05] inspected the Assumption Cathedral. What the Ukrainian authorities told them
[00:03:09] and what actually threatens the Orthodox
[00:03:12] sanctuary. Youth rebellion, protests in
[00:03:15] France are becoming more widespread. What are
[00:03:18] schoolchildren and students dissatisfied with and how in our country
[00:03:21] do we conduct a dialogue with the growing generation,
[00:03:24] let's discuss. No more bets. Self-ban
[00:03:27] on participating in gambling for a month. tens of thousands
[00:03:31] of Russians have installed it, will this help in the fight against gambling
[00:03:35] addiction and what can the
[00:03:53] I would like to start with Ukraine right away. This
[00:03:56] week, a delegation from NATO
[00:04:00] representatives of the military bloc inspected, in particular, the damaged Assumption
[00:04:03] Cathedral, and after the tour for guests, they
[00:04:07] performed a song by Ivan
[00:04:10] Mazepa. Father Vasily, what do you think this
[00:04:13] show-off was for? This is consistent with the policy of
[00:04:17] the Ukrainian government in recent days. This
[00:04:20] policy is aimed at destroying the Orthodox Canonical
[00:04:23] Church.
[00:04:26] And perhaps replacing it with a pseudo
[00:04:28] church. headed by citizen
[00:04:32] Dumenko, these are people, secular people,
[00:04:35] who pursue exclusively secular goals, they
[00:04:39] are trying with secular methods to fight with
[00:04:42] God, to fight with the Church of Christ,
[00:04:45] but the Church of Christ has already survived Hell, we
[00:04:49] know, and the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra has already experienced various excursions,
[00:04:53] when Nazis were brought there, they were shown the Lavra,
[00:04:56] but I think that this is not even the most important thing, I think the most important thing is that...
[00:05:01] now they are trying to replace the spiritual code, not just
[00:05:04] Russian, but the Orthodox code, they put Mazepa
[00:05:08] there, a traitor, and they sing these
[00:05:11] songs near him, this is the most important content of this visit, why else are they trying
[00:05:15] to present themselves as defenders of the church, while what they are trying
[00:05:19] to protect is not a church at all, but a surrogate OCU, they are like
[00:05:23] defending it, but they themselves understand the history there,
[00:05:26] that it will never live for more than one generation, no schisms will
[00:05:29] survive schismatics, but this is a conjuncture for which they are well paid, they
[00:05:33] are working out their order, this is absolutely such
[00:05:37] a political story, when we are the masters here, we do what... nothing
[00:05:40] new under the sun, and what else can
[00:05:58] people do who have lost the most important thing, God, in their
[00:06:02] heart, in their soul, in their mind. Meanwhile, in France, protests by
[00:06:05] high school students and university students are escalating,
[00:06:09] and even teachers are joining them. The
[00:06:12] reason was problems in education, but now the claims
[00:06:15] are gaining momentum, becoming more widespread, French society
[00:06:19] is simply tired of the authorities' policy,
[00:06:22] who prefer to send money to
[00:06:24] Ukraine, rather than invest it in their own country, so
[00:06:28] Father Vasily, what do you think these unrest will lead to? These unrest
[00:06:31] arises periodically, and as usual, it all started with
[00:06:35] a small rebellion somewhere in a provincial school,
[00:06:38] it was relevant, because it was connected with the material support of this
[00:06:42] school, and then these rebellions were joined by students from
[00:06:46] well-off schools, and then adults came, and then it turned out that
[00:06:49] trade unions also joined, they have their own interests, all this has already
[00:06:53] gone far beyond some dissatisfaction with
[00:06:56] one or two schools,
[00:06:59] as of today, political calls are already
[00:07:03] being made, such problems as why our
[00:07:07] children do not have enough money for education, why already
[00:07:10] hundreds of billions, only France? sent hundreds
[00:07:13] of billions of euros to the conflict in Ukraine, is it really so
[00:07:16] relevant for French schoolchildren that
[00:07:19] Ukrainian shells fly into Russia? Well, of course,
[00:07:23] objectively, they are not interested in this, it is clear that this will also
[00:07:26] cause protest until it is put to an end. Conducting a dialogue with
[00:07:30] the younger generation is a very important task, how do you think, Evgenia, is
[00:07:34] this being achieved in Russia and what is the role of
[00:07:38] the church in this?
[00:07:43] conditions so that a similar situation, similar
[00:07:46] to the French situation or everything that we had at the
[00:07:49] turn of the 2010s, so that it does not happen, and
[00:07:53] today the state, including with the participation of
[00:07:57] the church, creates a new
[00:08:00] body of such rules of spiritual and moral
[00:08:04] patriotic education, but I would like to note here that
[00:08:07] the church has not stopped
[00:08:10] engaging in the upbringing of people.
[00:08:42] This is impossible. The church must pay special
[00:08:46] attention to the care of the younger generation, as His Holiness
[00:08:50] Patriarch Kirill has repeatedly said. Let's listen to his words. We
[00:08:53] must address our word to them and remember that
[00:08:56] they, the current youth, are
[00:09:00] children of the digital era, who
[00:09:03] demand from us an understanding of their language, their thoughts. We need to
[00:09:07] talk about the truth in such a way that it resonates in the hearts of
[00:09:10] contemporaries. Under no circumstances should we
[00:09:13] adapt, we do not need to play along with
[00:09:16] what is called a young interlocutor, but we need to
[00:09:20] understand what is important for them today,
[00:09:24] today a priest addressing young people should not
[00:09:27] look down on the audience
[00:09:30] from the height of his position, but with a desire to first
[00:09:33] understand it, feel it, choose the
[00:09:36] right, necessary words in order to be convincing.
[00:09:40] Evgenia, what do you think needs to be done to, as His Holiness
[00:09:44] Patriarch said, find this contact and
[00:09:47] build trusting relationships with young people? You need to love
[00:09:51] people, you need to open your heart,
[00:09:54] you need to be informal about
[00:09:57] some communication, yes, to
[00:10:00] a conversation, to a discussion, especially this is noticeable in the conditions of this digitalization,
[00:10:04] yes, you are seemingly connected with everyone, but at the same time you do not take anyone
[00:10:08] seriously, young people, yes, all
[00:10:11] of us, need to be
[00:10:15] listened to carefully, heard, and
[00:10:18] understood, how important it is for each of us, and for the one
[00:10:21] who addresses, that is, from the side of the church, the one who...
[00:10:55] we will be able to find the resources within ourselves to overcome all these
[00:10:58] challenges. In continuation of this topic, it should be noted that the State Duma is now proposing
[00:11:02] to tighten control over computer games, in particular
[00:11:05] to introduce labeling or completely restrict
[00:11:09] obscene language, scenes with cruelty, alcohol
[00:11:13] and so on. How do you feel about this proposal? Well, I
[00:11:17] believe that limiting cruelty, obscene
[00:11:20] language and generally some norms, morals, rules, some
[00:11:23] behaviors, it seems to me. generally in our society this is not very accepted now and there is enough, if we
[00:11:27] talk about the digital, computer environment, everything is the same here,
[00:11:31] another thing is to create conditions so that it is
[00:11:34] safe, both for children and for adults, and
[00:11:37] generally safe in particular, so that there are no fraudsters, yes,
[00:11:41] so that through these computer networks our
[00:11:44] citizens are not involved in some
[00:11:47] illegal extremist groups, the state should definitely
[00:11:50] deal with this, today this market is not
[00:11:54] regulated by law at all, this is already a serious
[00:11:56] market, unfortunately, people even
[00:11:59] ruin their souls, they spend their lives at the computer, I know,
[00:12:03] in our parish there are several families where
[00:12:07] the breadwinner instead of communicating with loved ones,
[00:12:10] to rest before the working day, he plays
[00:12:14] tanks at night, well, at least you need to label,
[00:12:17] well, immediately warn that this game contains
[00:12:21] obscene language, so that parents already know about
[00:12:25] this, or let's say that it contains scenes of violence, but so far our laws,
[00:12:28] excuse me, they don't imply anything at all, they haven't developed
[00:12:32] any code for computer games yet,
[00:12:35] in 2024 an initiative appeared, if God
[00:12:38] grants, in 2026 we will witness specific
[00:12:42] legal acts, then thank God, and now let's talk about other games,
[00:12:45] more than 60 thousand people in
[00:12:49] a month have installed gambling addiction, as
[00:12:53] it turned out, quite many people
[00:13:09] have exercised such a right, His Holiness Patriarch Kirill has repeatedly spoken about
[00:13:13] this problem, here are his words: a person unable
[00:13:16] to tear himself away from a smartphone or computer game is also captive to
[00:13:20] harmful attachments and habits and needs.
[00:13:24] the experience of the holy fathers, the experience
[00:13:55] of abstinence, we, let me remind you, have four
[00:13:58] long fasts in the church, we fast, we
[00:14:01] abstain from what is pleasant to us, from what is sometimes
[00:14:05] not very useful, yes, and we abstain from that, all these
[00:14:09] ways of abstinence, they are a means, and the goal is
[00:14:12] the soul, to learn to live without something, just
[00:14:16] try to imagine that a person who is used to playing all his life, dies
[00:14:19] tomorrow, how will he go into eternity with this habit, this
[00:14:23] habit, like a weight, will drag him down, gambling addiction is exactly
[00:14:27] the same addiction as all the others, alcohol,
[00:14:30] chemical, nicotine, and so
[00:14:33] on, in fact, the measures are the same, how
[00:14:36] you, how you work to overcome another addiction, so
[00:14:40] here, therefore, of course, you need to
[00:14:44] turn to specialists, it can be anonymous,
[00:14:47] and not anonymous, completely different paths, everything that
[00:14:50] a person needs. topic of artificial intelligence, in
[00:14:54] particular its application
[00:15:25] in education, let's listen to the words of the president,
[00:15:28] if the use of artificial intelligence is reduced to
[00:15:31] only that a
[00:15:35] student presses a button
[00:15:38] for a specific answer, a correct answer,
[00:15:41] and does not
[00:15:43] engage his mind,
[00:15:47] somehow this leads to such, frankly speaking,
[00:15:50] an unfavorable and dangerous result, one must
[00:15:54] always strive to ensure that
[00:15:57] the child trains his abilities, and for
[00:16:01] this he needs to be interested in working on
[00:16:03] solving a specific problem, it is necessary for the child
[00:16:07] to have an interest in what he will do
[00:16:10] himself personally, and not just in getting
[00:16:14] a result by pressing some
[00:16:17] button, these are extremely important things, when
[00:16:20] using the capabilities of artificial intelligence, one must
[00:16:23] definitely keep this
[00:16:26] in mind. Father Vasily, does the
[00:16:30] church already use the capabilities of
[00:16:33] artificial intelligence? Well, the church and society are inseparable,
[00:16:37] right? Therefore, in the church, of course,
[00:16:40] individuals already use it, yes, however, these technologies
[00:16:44] conceal, well, obvious risks,
[00:16:47] some kind of error can creep in, maybe consciously,
[00:16:51] maybe unconsciously, in the church we have always paid,
[00:16:54] pay, and will pay attention to ensuring that everything corresponds to church
[00:16:58] doctrine, our task is not to substitute,
[00:17:01] in fact, the transmission of knowledge,
[00:17:04] teaching, not to transfer these... well,
[00:17:08] one can even use such a word as the functions of a teacher-mentor
[00:17:11] to these technologies,
[00:17:15] we need to learn to use these
[00:17:18] technologies as some kind of auxiliary tool, the church, by the way,
[00:17:21] speaks about this publicly within the framework of our
[00:17:25] Synodal Commission on Bioethics, we are precisely engaged in
[00:17:28] developing ethical issues
[00:17:31] of regulating artificial intelligence technologies, we should
[00:17:34] not substitute what has been given to us...
[00:18:07] such a prospect scares me, when in
[00:18:10] church, doctrinal matters, only a small group will understand,
[00:18:14] in its mass, a Russian person will not understand the difference,
[00:18:17] why, for example, there is distortion on an icon, our task, of course, is to promote
[00:18:21] education and upbringing, so that a Russian person truly
[00:18:25] knows his Russian, Orthodox faith, he would immediately give
[00:18:28] an assessment, this is truth, and this is a lie, today we
[00:18:32] often recall the president, therefore it is impossible not to mention that this week
[00:18:35] Vladimir Vladimirovich especially
[00:18:47] noted the high level of church-state
[00:18:50] relations, here are his words, and also expressed
[00:18:53] gratitude for the constant attention to the activities of the Russian
[00:18:57] Orthodox Church. Evgenia, how would you evaluate
[00:19:00] the president's role in this? Thanks to
[00:19:03] the state system of relations that exists today.
[00:19:37] the country into his hands, yes with
[00:19:40] difficulty, yes not easily, but these problems
[00:19:43] he, with the support of the people,
[00:19:46] the church, all of society and other social
[00:19:49] institutions, he just sees with the help
[00:19:52] of this support, he achieves something, I hope that we
[00:19:55] are still moving towards the prosperity of our beautiful homeland
[00:19:59] Russia, I was born in Soviet times, then it was impossible to
[00:20:02] imagine a picture where the head of state, without
[00:20:05] hesitation... tells the truth that he is a religious
[00:20:09] person, not only says, but
[00:20:12] also does, when he introduces
[00:20:14] the word God into the constitution, when
[00:20:18] some urgent questions arise, the head of state listens to the voice
[00:20:22] of the church, he listens to what the patriarch says, and so it was in
[00:20:26] Russia in all the best times, this week in
[00:20:29] Russia they celebrated the day of remembrance of Saint
[00:20:32] Sergius of Radonezh, one of the most revered Russian saints, about
[00:20:36] the significance of the Reverend...
[00:20:50] at that time, what was needed was not some wise
[00:20:52] ruler, but a humble
[00:20:55] monk living in the forest, Monk
[00:20:59] Sergius, who became the spiritual
[00:21:02] leader of the entire people, and this
[00:21:06] meant that the people were guided
[00:21:09] not by some political
[00:21:11] programs, not by some political
[00:21:14] philosophy, the people
[00:21:16] were guided by
[00:21:19] the word of God. The Orthodox faith, he
[00:21:22] placed it at the base of his personal, family,
[00:21:26] public, and state life. What would
[00:21:30] you, Evgenia, say about the significance of the figure of
[00:21:33] Saint Sergius of Radonezh, especially today? He
[00:21:37] through centuries, through difficult times, is
[00:21:40] a symbol for all of us. People come
[00:21:43] en masse to bow to Saint Sergius, because
[00:21:46] he is for each of us some
[00:21:50] kind of his own, answers his own joys, sorrows,
[00:21:54] and why is he like that? Because
[00:21:57] without Saint Sergius, we would not exist today, this
[00:22:01] is the only thing that can be said, if he had not
[00:22:04] blessed Prince Dmitry Donskoy for
[00:22:08] a martial battle for his country, for his land, for his
[00:22:11] state, then of course we would not
[00:22:15] exist.
[00:22:20] as well as his humility, because it was indeed a dense forest
[00:22:24] and there was prayer, this is the most important
[00:22:27] act of a monk, it has remained for centuries, it continues to
[00:22:31] this day in the Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, the largest monastery
[00:22:34] in Russia, the spirit breathes where it wants, on this day and at all
[00:22:37] times, the holy reverend is accessible, therefore
[00:22:41] let us pray, reverend
[00:25:43] Today, the Russian army launched drone strikes on logistical centers and
[00:25:47] maritime vessels used to supply military
[00:25:51] cargo to Ukraine. A logistical center in Ternovka,
[00:25:54] Mykolaiv Oblast, was hit, and a dry cargo ship was attacked in
[00:25:57] the Black Sea. Our troops also launched a massive strike on military
[00:26:01] facilities in Ukraine. Odessa-Chernom came under fire.
