00:01:00they remember that they passed like a knife through butter,
00:01:03easily, quickly, that is, they started the offensive in
00:01:07March, and by autumn they had already reached
00:01:10Rostov, they practically reached the Kuban, they, yes, they
00:01:14thought that it was all easy, they were, they read
00:01:17propaganda, Völkischer Beobachter and so on,
00:01:21constantly proving that Russia, Soviet Russia,
00:01:24now, is a colossus with feet of clay, that there,
00:01:28indeed, the entire economy is...
00:01:48to unity, they thought that now they would shake it, and then, again,
00:01:51propaganda made itself known, and then everything would start with riots,
00:01:55uprisings, no one loves this government, none of them, of
00:01:58the Germans, was ready for this...
00:03:00cargo at the front, the resilience of people in Donetsk, in Lugansk,
00:03:03all this is not taken into account, in the inflamed imagination of German mass media and
00:03:07the political class, already in 2022, Russia was supposed to capitulate, the economy
00:03:11was supposed to collapse, all the managers
00:03:14were supposed to flee, and the country was supposed to fall apart, this did not happen,
00:03:18but the German national character is very straightforward
00:03:22and inflexible, if it is written down in
00:03:25guiding documents, whether it is Plan Barbarossa or
00:03:28current federal documents.
00:03:38The Urals, but who did they listen to, the generals who,
00:03:41indeed, in 1918, after the conclusion of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, simply
00:03:44took and occupied without a fight the territory of present-day Ukraine, parts
00:03:48of the Baltics, Western Belarus, it was simply given to them, and Hitler and his
00:03:52generals proceeded from the fact that Stalin would conclude peace on any
00:03:55German terms, that Germany would seize
00:03:58Ukraine, part of it.
00:04:30but there was another, a different Soviet people somehow, that appeared,
00:04:33anti-Soviet, who had only been Soviet people for 2 years, hadn't even managed to become one yet,
00:04:37accordingly, there were miscalculations everywhere, the width of the railway track, when
00:04:41Operation Typhoon started in October 1941, the German leadership
00:04:44faced a dilemma: what to transport to the front first,
00:04:48ammunition or warm clothes, which were in
00:04:52Poland, in Warsaw, in other cities, there were overflowing warehouses, well, simply the throughput
00:04:56capacity, if you traveled by train, let's say, from Moscow to Berlin and
00:04:59back. you spend almost an hour replacing wheelsets,
00:05:02accordingly, they drive it into the depot, replace the wheelsets, only then it goes
00:05:06further, the same situation remains now, we also still have the track
00:05:10width difference, and now imagine you have 10 thousand.
00:05:15And you need to transport them,
00:05:18figuratively speaking, from Warsaw to near Smolensk, naturally, that's why they actually
00:05:20froze, the choice was made in favor of ammunition, not warm
00:05:24clothes, and with all the ensuing consequences, this one factor was already
00:05:27fatal, that the choice was made in favor of delivering Jews
00:05:31to concentration camps, they diverted trains for delivery at that moment,
00:05:34incidentally, it was completely amazing
00:05:36that
00:05:39in the General Government, it did not obey the Wehrmacht, they started. right away
00:05:43sending them to concentration camps, so the idea arose that what to send there? And
00:05:46he says: no, these trains are reserved,
00:05:50nothing, we are doing business, by the way, you know,
00:05:54that there is another nuance, I don't really, well, that
00:05:57is, I don't know, since Europe is powerful in the economic
00:06:00sense as before, we are recording, so to speak, that they, so
00:06:04to speak, are fading and fading and so on, but nevertheless, nevertheless,
00:06:08this is a serious economic power, the other
00:06:11thing is that this power. in many ways, well, it was like that, it was very deeply
00:06:15connected with Russia, precisely in terms of its
00:06:18strength, yes, well, with China and so on, but nevertheless, it is
00:06:22clear that they are breaking off there, diversifying or whatever it's called and so
00:06:26on and so on and so on, but nevertheless, nevertheless, look,
00:06:29here's a very characteristic news that
00:06:33Bloomberg gives us, it turns out, but listen
00:06:36for yourselves,
00:06:39in July, Belgium was fully dependent on Russia for liquefied
00:06:42natural gas imports, as the war in the Middle East led to a sharp
00:06:46reduction in supplies to Europe. EU members were already supposed
00:06:49to reduce LNG purchases from Russia, as the ban on
00:06:52short-term deals has been in effect since April, and a full ban
00:06:56will come into force next year. However, purchase volumes increased
00:06:59as buyers sought alternatives to Middle
00:07:03Eastern supplies. As a result, France, Belgium and purchases. How does this
00:07:06Spain became the leaders in tally with the intention,
00:07:10so to speak, to wage war with us, not to repeat mistakes.
00:07:16The last train with ore left Brest a
00:07:19couple of hours before the start of the Great Patriotic
00:07:22War, it fits quite well, yes, well, what
00:07:26can I say, I don't know, is it serious or is it such
00:07:30a bluff, because what Felix described, for example,
00:07:34well, all this, all this looks not like an intention
00:07:37to fight, but an intention to, so to speak, somehow, well, I don't know,
00:07:40to regroup. So to speak, to gather, I
00:07:44don't know, society and so on, in some way, well, so
00:07:47to speak, well, to prevent
00:07:49some kind of, I don't know, disintegration into small
00:07:53parts and so on, how do you need some kind of common idea, and in general, of course, ideally, you
00:07:57know, there is this carrot in front of a donkey, it walks, and the carrot is in front
00:08:00of it and so on, no, I don't need to, I won't go far,
00:08:04what I mean is that this carrot in the form of a coming,
00:08:07terrible, inevitable war with Russia, it certainly brings
00:08:10together, makes one, so to speak, a little bit
00:08:12take oneself in hand, perhaps, perhaps that's
00:08:16the calculation, not that I'm comforting myself and driving these thoughts away from me,
00:08:19no, one must probably proceed from the worst, indeed, but still something tells me that there is
00:08:23much more bluff and political game in this than
00:08:26real intention, well, anyway, if, if there are intentions, then
00:08:30we will not change the track, in all senses, a short commercial,
00:08:33we'll be back.
00:08:43Moscow is among the top five smartest cities on
00:08:46the planet, this atmosphere of the future, which is
00:08:50already here. Moscow learns not to take time,
00:08:53but to give it. Moscow today is ahead
00:08:56of the whole world. We can manufacture a module in
00:09:002 hours. This is great. Renovation, which
00:09:04sounds like renovation of the housing stock, in fact, is
00:09:06renovation of the city as a whole. Residential areas
00:09:10are no longer sleeping, they are living fully. there are all
00:09:13opportunities to do something and not stay at home,
00:09:17not play on phones,
00:09:21and Moscow is beautiful because it is alive,
00:09:24this is probably the most difficult challenge in the history of the capital, to return
00:09:28the city to a human, to recreate a space in which
00:09:32every person will feel at home.

00:13:11historically speaking, instead of an epigraph, or as
00:13:15an epigraph, please look at
00:13:18one British politician, former Prime Minister,
00:13:22who... who was a
00:13:26fan of Ukraine, moreover, there is an opinion, give us his
00:13:29picture, and there is an opinion that it was he who dissuaded, yes, this is Boris
00:13:33Johnson, it was he who dissuaded, not just dissuaded, but ordered not to sign
00:13:36any agreements with Russia in March-April, by general opinion,
00:13:40by common admission, everything was literally already
00:13:43ready, and so to speak, everyone agreed, well, by the way, imagine,
00:13:47look at the situation now, yes, imagine, if we had signed those very Istanbul
00:13:51agreements in 2022, well, who would have benefited?
00:14:01Boris Johnson and his role, we move to
00:14:05the 1940s, what we talked about before,
00:14:08about who pushed whom to what.
00:14:12and there is an opinion, there is an opinion,
00:14:15well, at least there is a lot of talk among
00:14:19historians, that a signal or
00:14:22a hint or a recommendation.
00:14:55so he flew there, then he was declared, Hitler I think
00:14:58declared him insane, yes, he declared him simply insane, he said it was his
00:15:01initiative, yes, it was him, he is insane, well,
00:15:04insane or not, he still flew to Britain, talked about something there, apparently they
00:15:08failed to agree,
00:15:11they say that he allegedly offered Britain and Germany to delineate spheres
00:15:14of influence, saying that Germany gets full freedom of action in
00:15:18continental Europe, Britain retains its empire,
00:15:21independence, status as a world power and so on.
00:15:27And what's interesting, what's interesting,
00:15:30London still keeps the details of this visit
00:15:33classified, this is such a mysterious story, now in a few
00:15:37seconds. I will let you listen and watch a fragment from
00:15:40Winston Churchill's memoirs, he describes in detail,
00:15:43well, not exactly this story, but his impressions of
00:15:46it, and then we will talk about whether it makes sense and
00:15:50is it correct to draw such analogies between those Britons
00:15:54and their role in that war, in that war, modern
00:15:58Britons and their role in this war, yes, and so
00:16:01Churchill writes, we read:
00:16:05Rudolf Hess was a handsome young man. He dined at the same
00:16:09table as Hitler and was able to understand his inner world, his
00:16:12hatred of the Soviet Union, his passionate desire to destroy
00:16:16Bolshevism, his admiration for England and his sincere desire for friendship with
00:16:20the British Empire. Hess's view of the European situation was
00:16:23that the warmongers, whose sentiments were expressed by
00:16:27Churchill, had alienated England from its true interests
00:16:30in a policy of friendship with Germany, and above all from an alliance against
00:16:34Bolshevism. The Soviet government was deeply interested...
00:16:39Three years later, when I was in Moscow, during my second visit, I realized
00:16:43how much this topic interested Stalin. At dinner, he asked
00:16:46me what the truth was about Hess's mission. I briefly
00:16:50stated what I wrote here. I got the impression
00:16:53that Stalin believed there were some secret negotiations or a conspiracy between Germany and
00:16:57Great Britain with the aim of a joint invasion of
00:17:00Russia. When the interpreter made it clear that he did not believe my words, I
00:17:04replied: "When I state facts known to me, I expect them
00:17:08to be accepted." Stalin took this somewhat sharp answer with
00:17:11a good-natured smile. Even here, in Russia, many things
00:17:15happen that our secret services do not necessarily tell
00:17:18me. With this, I stopped. Whatever moral
00:17:21guilt the German, who was close to Hitler, Hess,
00:17:25in my opinion, atoned for it with his exceptionally selfless and
00:17:28desperate act, inspired by delusional
00:17:31good intentions. He came to us of his own free will, and
00:17:35although no one authorized him to do so, he represented something
00:17:38like an envoy, this was a psychopathological, not
00:17:41a criminal case, and that's how it should be viewed,
00:17:45it's funny, of course, and interesting,
00:17:49where, well, Churchill will say what he told Stalin, I told
00:17:52him, he said, asked me at dinner what the truth about
00:17:56the mission was, I briefly explained, so to speak, well, the whole
00:17:59truth, as you know, the British never lie, come on, and he was like
00:18:03offended, he didn't even , well,
00:18:05amazing, sweet, of course, already
00:18:16historically, already symbolically, Britain generally
00:18:19stands behind us, not at all shy, this time
00:18:22look, information has appeared that naval drones that attack
00:18:26the Black Sea Fleet are produced in
00:18:28Great Britain, moreover, we actually knew this, but this
00:18:32kind of, how do you say, a sincere confession on the pages of one of the main
00:18:35newspapers, I don't remember anything like that,
00:18:39you see, our, our people are striking, say the British
00:18:42with pride, well, this is my
00:18:46question, how correct
00:18:49it is to draw such analogies, you know, not very correct, not
00:18:52very, why, the whole point is that if we take
00:18:561940, that is, 1940-1941, then Churchill was already in
00:18:59power in England and England took the position
00:19:03that it was against both Nazi Germany and against
00:19:06the Soviet Union. That is, as it was said later, if Nazi Germany
00:19:10loses, we must help Nazi
00:19:12Germany,
00:19:14this was said by an American,
00:19:17well, if we take
00:19:21England during the Munich Agreement,
00:19:25that's right, well, that is, accordingly, not Churchill, there, it was Chamberlain's
00:19:29group and others that lost, and
00:19:32Churchill's group came, which actually advocated that Hitler needed to be
00:19:35reined in, now the situation is not
00:19:38like that, so to speak, here, so to speak, figuratively speaking,
00:19:42the lessons of 1938 were
00:19:45understood, aha, England, it did not
00:19:49change its policy at the necessary moment, so
00:19:52that's why if we compare it to 1940, it's not entirely correct, especially since
00:19:56Churchill declared war on
00:19:58Germany, they declared it back in 1939, on September 3,
00:20:02and accordingly he immediately supported
00:20:06us that same day.
00:20:50Yes, by the way, it's interesting, thank you, just pay
00:20:54attention, by the way, for Britain,
00:20:57the First World War, it's certainly, for us, it's clear that the Second World War is
00:21:01the main war, the most terrible, the most monstrous, for Britain, no, the First, these
00:21:05poppies they wear, so to speak, well, it's in honor not just of the First World War, but
00:21:08of all, so to speak, fallen, all heroes and so on, but it is dedicated, so to
00:21:12speak, it started precisely with the First World War, regarding the First
00:21:16World War, for them it is the most terrible, the most terrible.
00:24:28Hess was a man who devoutly believed in Hitler, and Hitler, in table conversations, told Hess that
00:24:31the English and the Germans are brothers, they cannot
00:24:35fight, they must move
00:24:38forward together, and Hess so believed Hitler that he
00:24:42said, I will go there now, they don't understand the Fuhrer's words,
00:24:46I just need to explain it to them, I just need to explain it accurately.
00:25:22In any case, for the British, the French campaign, one can
00:25:26say, ended with a slight scare. Yes, there were wolf packs
00:25:29that dominated the Atlantic in 1941, and
00:25:32accordingly there was the Battle of Britain in the air, but in any
00:25:36case, the Fuhrer truly perceived England as
00:25:39a natural, close ally, almost like
00:25:43us, and accordingly, Hess was friends with
00:25:47Lord Hamilton, whom he very much expected to meet then, as... he flew in, and
00:25:50accordingly, instead of that, the British, one can say, did not meet his
00:25:53expectations, moreover, there is a version that he was even strangled in Spandau prison
00:25:57in 1987 by order of the British, there are
00:26:00memoirs. from Tunisia, he even wrote a whole book
00:26:04called "I Looked into the Eyes of His Killers." A murky
00:26:07story, indeed there are still many undisclosed documents, but in
00:26:11any case, it was a signal from Nazi Germany to Great Britain,
00:26:15that we are friends, we don't want to fight you, let's conclude a separate
00:26:18peace and throw all our forces to the east.
00:26:22Felix, it's interesting, now, well, it's clear what it is, it's clear that,
00:26:26so to speak, this attitude somewhat clouded the war, this
00:26:29internal, organic feeling of the Germans towards the British.
00:27:02Yes, that is, if in percentage
00:27:04terms,
00:27:07yes, I think that this is one of the reasons, because they so sharply, well, yes,
00:27:11Saxons, they always sharply
00:27:15want, no, I meant that, I understand, so to speak, this
00:27:18genesis, I'm interested in how much it has survived at the everyday
00:27:21level, yes, of course, it has survived, I think that
00:27:24deep down, of course, everything on the continent
00:27:28is uncultured, these are people
00:27:31who can be slightly... directed, yes, that is, the British
00:27:35were always very much to themselves and
00:27:38felt themselves separate, I think
00:27:41that for this reason they correctly left
00:27:44Europe, because they precisely in this madness did not want
00:27:48to participate as participants, but as
00:27:50directors, to direct madness, to participate in
00:27:54their own madness, understood, understood, well,
00:27:57returning, it's clear that it's not just, well, not just such
00:28:00conversations, you know, for, so to speak,
00:28:02interesting, speculative ones, no, this is all history, this is,
00:28:06this is terribly important, in fact, it repeats itself, and the general
00:28:10principles and general features, well, I didn't just ask
00:28:13about this everyday notion, and
00:28:17it's clear, that it's clear that in
00:28:20fact, some participants in those
00:28:24processes of the 1940s are trying to erase the memory of the end, of
00:28:28how it all ended, who won, well, some... This is what we are actually
00:28:32doing, on the contrary, trying to
00:28:35preserve this memory at all costs and doing everything
00:28:38for it. Well, by the way, it's interesting, these days, from
00:28:42August 3 to 6, in 1940, the process of joining the Baltic states to
00:28:45the Soviet Union took place. This, of course,
00:28:49we talked about a few minutes ago, remember, this did not prevent them from subsequently
00:28:53supporting the Nazis, meeting them with bread and salt, as expected, my God, the liberators
00:28:56arrived, and so on, well, it's a fact, what can I say,
00:28:59this was then, now... nothing
00:29:03has changed, because now demonstrably, with
00:29:06honors, in Latvia, a 102-year-old Nazi
00:29:10criminal, Laimons Ezergais, was buried, from
00:29:13the age of 19, he served in the Latvian SS Legion,
00:29:17faithfully, members of the legion, as you
00:29:20know, burned villages with civilians, brutally killed
00:29:23prisoners, had fun as they could and as they wanted, with honors, the 102-year-old
00:29:26hero, Latvian hero,
00:29:30this, of course, is our oversight. Because, well, after so many years, although
00:29:33maybe, I don't know, maybe it was impossible
00:29:37to completely eradicate ideas, ideas are generally difficult to eradicate
00:29:40unlike people, so after so many
00:29:44years, the ideas of Nazism in Europe are becoming popular
00:29:47again, this forces us to fight them
00:29:50again, we are doing it in all possible ways, by the way, recently this
00:29:53story, it's so fair and good news,
00:29:57and at the same time strange for me. So, recently, the Tverskoy District Court of
00:30:01Moscow officially recognized.
00:30:32but nevertheless, they are war criminals, well, well, no,
00:30:36it's clear, they were war criminals, you just need to understand that now
00:30:39Ukraine has actualized this topic, the heroization of these very
00:30:43Banderites, Bandera, Shukhevych, Zelensky
00:30:46actualized it by creating his own pantheon, it became
00:30:49accordingly a topic, including international disputes, it's quite
00:30:52logical that we, here, the relevant
00:30:55authorities applied to the court with
00:30:59the goal of dotting the i's here as well.
