00:00:00and here TV people compete, how to
00:00:03say, in every area there are their own problems,
00:00:05you understand, there is no competition
00:00:08of areas here, there is competition of programs here. Within the framework of the competition,
00:00:12three-day master classes were held, journalists shared their experience with aspiring
00:00:15colleagues, analyzed common mistakes in broadcasts, and also discussed
00:00:19how to attract a new generation to watch TV channels,
00:00:22accustomed to short videos on social networks. Why don't
00:00:26we educate the audience in such a way that on the Internet.
00:00:30she watched short formats, and
00:00:33gained interest in the problems, in
00:00:36the topic, then she already wanted to study the material
00:00:39more deeply, which she received from the first
00:00:42impressions. The winners in each of the twenty nominations will be determined
00:00:46from November 17 to 20 in Yaroslavl, where the awarding of
00:00:49bronze Orpheuses will also take place. Arina Shchebleva, Roman Serebrennikov,
00:00:53Nikita Sebastianov, Yulia Khodorova, First Channel, Nizhny
00:00:56Novgorod.
00:00:59And that's all for now. We are following the development of events, and the news channel on the first
00:01:02will continue the program, time
00:01:04will tell,
00:01:10good afternoon everyone, the news channel on the first continues its work, we are live,
00:01:14this is the program "Time Will Tell" in the studio Anatoly
00:01:17Kuzichev,
00:01:20in Kiev there is hysteria, in Europe there is
00:01:22panic, but what about in the States and what about
00:01:26in Russia, let's talk about that today, just on Friday evening.
00:02:01Vladimir Putin's statement on the results of negotiations with Trump
00:02:04was published on the Kremlin website. Here
00:02:06it is. During the telephone conversation
00:02:09with US President Donald Trump on October 9,
00:02:13considerable attention was paid to the prospects for resolving
00:02:16the Ukrainian crisis, the situation around Iran and
00:02:20various aspects of bilateral relations were also touched upon. When discussing the state
00:02:23of affairs in the global energy sector, the Russian side reaffirmed its readiness
00:02:27to supply oil and oil products to the American
00:02:31the agreement on continuing personal contacts between the presidents
00:02:34of the two countries, as well as cooperation along the lines of presidential administrations,
00:02:38special services and other departments was confirmed. Assistant
00:02:41to the President of Russia Yuri Ushakov described the conversation as
00:02:45friendly, and moreover, so to speak, hinted that
00:02:48the presidents would very much like to continue, it's just that everyone has their own business, but apparently they will continue in
00:02:52the near future, here again, I understand, they flinched in Kiev and
00:02:56in Europe, it's important, I think, it's
00:02:59important, it's not a simple, so to speak, figure
00:03:03of politeness, but the fact that the US President
00:03:06publicly thanked Vladimir Putin, thanked him sincerely,
00:03:09I repeat once again, publicly, in the media, and this
00:03:12caused separate, so to speak, paroxysms in
00:03:16Europe and Ukraine, listen,
00:03:20I think you heard about the oil deal with Russia, this is a very big deal,
00:03:23huge volumes of oil will come to our country, and honestly, I want
00:03:27to thank President Putin in our country. huge volumes of
00:03:31oil will come, and this is diesel fuel, exactly what we need, so thank
00:03:35you,
00:03:38thank you, you are welcome, I want to answer Trump, but this is not within my
00:03:41competence, and before thanking Putin, Trump
00:03:45revealed, in fact, the details of this fuel deal, which we are discussing now, listen
00:03:48to this. Russia will immediately supply to the American
00:03:52world market more than 300 tons of diesel fuel, another
00:03:565,000 tons during November and 1 million tons...
00:04:00after that. In addition, depending on the state of its
00:04:03oil refineries, Russia will supply 3 million
00:04:07tons of diesel fuel in a short time. Thanks to our full control over the Strait of Hormuz
00:04:10and this important statement on Russian energy, diesel
00:04:14fuel prices for Americans and, of course, for the whole world will
00:04:18quickly and record-breakingly decrease. Well,
00:04:20actually, I want to ask our esteemed experts what this
00:04:24was all about, because there are exactly two interpretations
00:04:28of this deal, this conversation.
00:05:00characterize her and her president and so on, here's such a thing.
00:05:03Interpretation two: Americans are people, so to speak, purely practical
00:05:07and in this sense cynical, they just got what they wanted
00:05:10and that's it, said a big thank you. dollars,
00:05:25which we will receive, as they say, on this deal, so I have no questions
00:05:28for our side at all, I have questions for the American
00:05:32side, yes, President Trump received from Congress in due time along
00:05:35with the introduction of this very hellish package of sanctions, he received the right
00:05:39to attention remove, appoint these sanctions.
00:06:12wait, and I think that this spirit
00:06:15of anchorage, the spirit of this lifting of sanctions from the diesel deal and so on,
00:06:19will eventually turn into something else,
00:06:23I await this something else with some concern, because
00:06:27what will Trump ultimately get his way, but he is working in
00:06:30the short term, he is working until November
00:06:334th, then what, then what, and
00:06:36this question, unfortunately, hangs in the air, why, because the congressmen,
00:06:40including the Republicans, immediately got excited,
00:06:42how could we, we ourselves gave, oh, what to do?
00:06:46here, they immediately moved to a completely
00:06:49destructive position, the Europeans, you probably
00:06:52noticed how many sanctions we were hit with in response, in order
00:06:55to compensate for this failure and so on, the Ukrainians
00:06:59immediately became negatively agitated
00:07:02- well, with the ensuing consequences, how
00:07:05will Trump cope with this stage of the crisis, I honestly don't
00:07:09know if he will cope, that's good,
00:07:42he imposes secondary sanctions against those countries that will buy
00:07:46Russian oil and gas, well not that he gives
00:07:49the opportunity, I beg your pardon, I beg your pardon,
00:07:53I beg your pardon, I beg your pardon, but Trump must make
00:07:56a decision regarding the imposition of sanctions under this law by
00:07:59October 18, and the decision that Trump made now,
00:08:03precisely, it doesn't just go against it, it goes in parallel with this law,
00:08:07that is, conditionally speaking, by October 18, Trump must finally make a decision, sanctions or
00:08:11not, he can make a decision. not to impose sanctions under the Linse
00:08:14Graham law, then he will have to explain to Congress why he is not imposing
00:08:18sanctions, he should give an explanation, it's elementary to give him an explanation, he will take
00:08:22statistics on diesel prices in his country and show,
00:08:25please, so, in fact, in fact, we are witnessing,
00:08:28we are witnessing a historical, in fact, a turning point, I
00:08:32believe, this is, of course, the tip of the iceberg, which you
00:08:35have just outlined, but there is also an underwater part,
00:08:39the underwater part is as follows, the fact is that...
00:08:42the presidents of the USA and the presidents of Russia found common
00:08:46ground, that is, in other words, national
00:08:49interests intersected at focal points, they agreed, this
00:08:52is now a very important signal to the whole world,
00:08:55in fact, one should not try, so to speak, to engage in some kind of behind-the-scenes games,
00:08:59one should look for common ground in national interests,
00:09:02absolutely and clearly, the national interest of the USA was that
00:09:063,000 tons of Russian diesel should enter the American and indeed
00:09:10the world market, why, because well...
00:09:42prices, but he also used to name prices and will say, well, what then, our Russophobia overrides your card,
00:09:46our Russophobia can override, but until November 4, as you rightly
00:09:49noted, why, because the voter needs to come to the polls and
00:09:53Trump will say, guys, I did everything to lower the price of diesel, and
00:09:56the Democrats want to raise it, who are you for? Yes, the Democrats
00:10:00will declare that Trump is buying voters and nothing will change
00:10:03later, they will declare, but the fact is that it works, that's the point, well, yes,
00:10:07also look, it seems interesting
00:10:10to me. why is the symbolism of this act so important,
00:10:13the symbolism is also that look,
00:10:17so,
00:10:18idiotic,
00:10:24which kill the German economy and so
00:10:32on, other economies, yes,
00:10:35here, you see, the practical interest
00:10:38outweighed from its country
00:10:41America, remember, right, suddenly they outweighed all these propagandistic
00:10:44clichés, that's cool, well, I don't know, is this the first
00:10:47step, has the ice broken, but it seems obvious to everyone that America can't do
00:10:51without Russian diesel, well yes, without Russian diesel.
00:12:25we need this Russian diesel, he is lying, because the
00:12:29USA is not an exporter
00:12:32of diesel, and the USA exports
00:12:35one and a half million barrels every day,
00:12:38if the USA, if the USA wanted to
00:12:42increase, to increase this diesel
00:12:46stock, they would do what Russia did, that is,
00:12:49suspend diesel exports, lose
00:12:52money, what dexterity. to say that
00:12:55the American market is so separate, neat, with a strategy
00:12:59of energy dominance, that's what this is done for,
00:13:02to consider world markets as a whole as its territory, the US does not
00:13:06need, does not need Russian diesel, it is only needed
00:13:09in the sense that this diesel
00:13:11- this
00:13:14lifting of sanctions can affect world prices,
00:13:18world prices, if a new stream of Russian
00:13:21diesel enters the world market, but the US
00:13:28itself does not need this diesel at all, well, good, but the only thing
00:13:31is that the supply of this diesel to the US will affect world
00:13:35markets, am I quoting your logic correctly, if Russia
00:13:39can sell huge quantities of diesel
00:13:42to other countries and the US will not interfere now
00:13:46that sanctions have been lifted, it will affect world prices,
00:13:49why is this important for the US, the US does not depend, why is it
00:13:53important for the US that world prices.
00:15:25barrels of diesel are consumed each,
00:15:27so this is the volume, this is the monthly volume, about
00:15:31which in Russia, that is, this will not affect, it is clear
00:15:34why something started its speech, brilliant, I must say. with the
00:15:38words: yes, yes, I believe that the ice has broken, but in the
00:15:41sense that Russia really needs this,
00:15:44Russia, lift sanctions, I think that this
00:15:47is not about the diesel itself, it is about the fact that there are other deals,
00:15:51which are an advance, it is Trump's advance to conclude
00:15:54completely different deals, that is, it is a prologue
00:15:58to some other deal, for example, you think,
00:16:01the US wants Russia to
00:16:04approve this deal, this foreign purchase.
00:17:07fantasy, some kind of mystery, please, well, look, here
00:17:10you need to distinguish symbolism,
00:17:13numbers, trends and intentions,
00:17:17so, the symbolism is undoubtedly in the fact that this is the first
00:17:21precedent for easing sanctions pressure on our
00:17:24country, this is a plus for us, the second
00:17:27symbolism, even smoothly transitioning into numbers,
00:17:30the United States, like the entire Anglo-Saxon world, lives by
00:17:33common law, a precedent for lifting anti-Russian sanctions.
00:17:37may be extended to other areas, to other industries, to other volumes,
00:17:41respectively, or not, yes, everything will depend on
00:17:44how the ice goes, where it goes, actually, which has broken, that the ice has broken,
00:17:48I absolutely agree, further, who, who benefits more and
00:17:52where this ice will stop, will it sink the European Titanic, conditionally speaking,
00:17:56I think that Russia and the United States have now launched the very iceberg that is moving rapidly towards
00:18:00Europe, who benefits from this, we certainly
00:18:03benefit from this, the opportunity to enter the American market, the opportunity to yes...
00:18:47it is diesel that increases many times over, they even
00:18:50discussed that agricultural diesel would be sold to ordinary
00:18:54consumers at the same price, and there it differs by two or three times,
00:18:57accordingly, this is important, accordingly, Trump, he
00:19:01I would not agree that he acts situationally, no, he is a very
00:19:05smart person, sometimes it even happens that...
00:19:43everyone without exception, and what happened,
00:19:46everyone remembers, that is, Russia actually threw a diesel lifebuoy to Trump and
00:19:49the republic, a diesel lifebuoy, another
00:19:53question is where Russia will find this diesel, there is a reason why
00:19:56Russia, you know what diesel deposits we have, Michael, there is a
00:20:00reason why Russia imposed, suspended
00:20:04diesel exports, because there was not enough diesel in Russia
00:20:08itself,
00:20:12I'll tell you this, no, listen, these are good questions for such a serious,
00:20:15deep, professional conversation, but I'll say this, if in one word
00:20:19you are not worried about us, we will find
00:20:22his speech began with the words peace,
00:20:25friendship diesel diesel, yes Michael, I
00:20:29why am I arguing with you, firstly, there is no peace, and it is still
00:20:32far from peace, the conversation about peace has not even started,
00:20:36secondly, friendship. there is no friendship either, even between Russia and
00:20:40the USA there is no friendship, because, well, because for now, but there is
00:20:44the beginning of trust, this is the most important thing, as you said, there is a precedent for trust,
00:20:47the parties have converged in interests. they agreed, this is the most
00:20:51important thing, diesel, diesel is available, here you
00:20:55have a host, such an interesting map, but there are no two
00:20:58actors here, here are all, you see the name, but there are no those who
00:21:02are hysterical, who is now just
00:21:05very worried about all this, you see, there are no inscriptions there, no Ukraine, no
00:21:09Europe, no inscriptions
00:21:11there,
00:21:14look, this is Europe, yes, this is Europe, imagine that in this whole situation, in this diesel deal.
00:21:18Well, what about the date, is she
00:27:26what we finished the previous part with, so,
00:27:29panic, hysteria, rage,
00:27:33here are characteristic quotes from Zelensky, who
00:27:36reacted this way to the agreements between Trump and Putin.
00:27:40Listen.
00:27:42Any weakening of sanctions against Russia without a clear and
00:27:46lasting de-escalation agreement with Russia is
00:27:49an obvious weakness. This plays into Russia's hands, so that it will fight
00:27:53longer, will respect America even less, will inflict even more
00:27:56losses and damage on the world. Gifts to Putin will not work for peace and
00:28:00any benefit for the civilized world. Russia will thank for
00:28:04the diesel with further terror and villainy. Allowing Russia
00:28:07to sell oil products is an investment in a war that needs
00:28:11to be ended, not continued. We need real de-escalation with Russia
00:28:15in a mirror format. We count on fair support
00:28:18from America for our defense of life in a corresponding strong conversation
00:28:22between the US and Russia, strong, not weak. Well, this
00:28:26is still the most, it seems to me, delicate, so
00:28:29to speak, interpretation, he said, he generally said a lot. frankly
00:28:33rude things were also said to America, well, the
00:28:36journalists, of course, kind and honest people,
00:28:40informed Trump about Zelensky's reaction to his deal with Vladimir
00:28:43Putin, look, a good dialogue, how Trump
00:28:47reacted to this message, listen,
00:28:51Zelensky said that you are weak once you made a deal with Putin, who said
00:28:54that, Zelensky,
00:28:56okay,
00:29:00enough, enough.
00:29:32and clearly not by chance, precisely at the moment when in Miami the Ukrainian delegation was negotiating
00:29:36with the American side on
00:29:39resolving the conflict in Ukraine, the communication was planned
00:29:42initially, these are four horsemen, we called them four horsemen
00:29:45of the apocalypse, and that week we, so to speak,
00:29:48defined, understood that there is no need to be afraid of such an apocalypse, what horsemen,
00:29:52such an apocalypse will be, in general, this communication,
00:29:56I repeat, was planned for 2 days, the second day of negotiations, accordingly, broke down, they
00:29:59packed up and left, by the way,
00:30:20in Kiev, they tried, of course, to smooth over the situation with these failed
00:30:24or ruined negotiations in Miami, but
00:30:27it turned out, not only unconvincing, it turned out, I tell
00:30:30you, maximally ambiguous, bad PR,
00:30:32listen,
00:30:35the negotiations were not canceled, it's just that the first day turned out to be longer
00:30:38and a little different
00:30:40taste, well, they know better, of course,
00:30:44hussars, keep quiet, please, I ask you,
00:30:47let's - well, let's then continue, here, still,
00:30:50look, the Ukrainian delegation was conducting negotiations in Miami, and at that time
00:30:54Trump just calls Putin, is this a coincidence, or do you think,
00:30:57so to speak, a deliberately planned
00:31:01story, for what purpose?
00:31:03I think that in reality Trump has accumulated a lot of negative
00:31:07energy towards Zelensky, and he is expressing it
00:31:11this way, he is expressing it, he clearly emphasizes this to make it clear that he is Zelensky.
00:31:15is very dissatisfied, moreover, he emphatically, makes it clear that he is dissatisfied
00:31:18with the behavior of European,
00:31:20European partners, for now still partners, or rather buyers
00:31:24of American weapons. Pay attention to what is happening now, the United
00:31:27States is selling used American weapons at the price
00:31:31of new, and European money, which they pay for weapons, goes
00:31:34to the American industry, but the problem is that
00:31:37the American military industry is currently unable to cope with the volumes needed after
00:31:41Iran and Ukraine, precisely for this reason.
00:31:45there are, in principle, grounds for Trump to be irritated
00:31:48with those who prevent him from concluding deals, peace
00:31:52agreements, consistent with the spirit of Anchorage, and so on,
00:31:55so Trump's behavior yes, will become increasingly harsh towards
00:31:59Ukrainians, towards Zelensky,
00:32:02towards so-called European partners, he will humiliate them,
00:32:06by the way, you know, what now, Michael, well, Michael always says
00:32:09about Trump that he, so to speak, is difficult to trust, that he is very
00:32:13inconsistent, changes.
00:32:40on someone else, suddenly imagine, a person's psyche, I don't know, his mind is so arranged, that whoever offers more,
00:32:42there and... that's how
00:32:45it is,
00:32:49well, excuse me please, here they offered seven, here only four, whatever
00:32:53it may be, that's all, maybe it's just about
00:32:56that, that's why Europeans criticize Trump, because he
00:32:59no longer obeys Euro-Atlantic solidarity, he
00:33:03rudely changes his shoes, he is always wearing the same
00:33:07shoes, a businessman's boots,
00:33:09and we constantly sew him a suit about him being a politician, he is not a politician, he is
00:33:12a businessman, he makes deals.
00:33:45so to speak, the testimony of Mendel, Yulia Mendel, his
00:33:48former press secretary, he just behaves hysterically,
00:33:51he is, in principle, a hysterical personality, accordingly, he quickly folds up, they
00:33:55folded up and left, that's it, the deal is multi-component, so
00:33:58of course he took everything into account, of course he is reported, because now
00:34:02the price level, positions in the upcoming elections, and so
00:34:06on, depend on this, he takes all this into account, the deal is a business deal,
00:34:09it takes into account a huge number, well, whom am I teaching, yes, I won't teach you, it takes into account
00:34:13a huge number of factors,
00:36:15I saw, I fell, naturally, the next time I climb
00:36:18a branch, I still have a lot to saw, I remember your warning and act
00:36:22differently, not because I am not consistent, but because I suddenly realized
00:36:25what this leads to, all external parameters.
00:36:58weapons normally, it seems to me, this is quite a weighty argument,
00:37:01please Alexander, to Michael's
00:37:04words, what Trump said six months
00:37:07ago, needs to be linked to the context of the Middle
00:37:11East, at that moment it was expected that everything would end
00:37:14then, accordingly, now Trump has
00:37:18a clear understanding that, firstly, after the elections he will again have to meddle
00:37:22in Iran in the Middle East, accordingly, this will close
00:37:25the Strait of Hormuz for at least another six months to a year. and accordingly, oil
00:37:29from there will not go to the United States to the world market, just as fertilizers
00:37:33will not go, another spring with a very bad
00:37:36fertilization season, accordingly, a very bad situation for food
00:37:39security in many countries of the world, accordingly, what needs to be done, look for
00:37:43an alternative, and here Russia already becomes
00:37:46without alternative, accordingly, yes, Trump is possibly
00:37:49not such, let's say, a genius of strategy and
00:37:52multi-move combinations, like for example our president or Xi
00:37:56Jinping, but he... is very good at tactics,
00:37:59in business, including in politics, and he perfectly
00:38:03understood the necessity, therefore he trolled Zelensky so harshly,
00:38:07causing him an attack of insane rage and once again
00:38:10showing who is the main one, relatively speaking, in
00:38:14particular, in supporting Ukraine, militarily
00:38:18and financially, now indeed, this whole system,
00:38:21which represents the purchase of American weapons by Europeans, can
00:38:25be put on hold, and this means:
00:39:28that many US officials called Europeans
00:39:31over these past weekends and called policy
00:39:35deputy head of Zelensky's office, who is responsible for defense, and said:
00:39:38if you don't obey, then first, we can
00:39:42stop all weapons supplies now through the Par program, we will
00:39:46stop. we may not provide intelligence
00:39:49information, I am not even talking about the fact that I am not even talking about the fact that
00:39:53even Musk said that Zelensky, you, now now
00:39:56Vasilievich. now yes, let's not turn off Starlink yet, but that was probably meant.
00:40:00In general, of course, from what you are saying,
00:40:03Vasily Devich, it would be cool, of course, if the states, as in forty-four, opened a second
00:40:07front,
00:40:09well, the time has come against Europe, of course, yes, together, I think we would have settled
00:40:13all this quite quickly, well, okay, this is fantasy, now regarding what you said,
00:40:16now we will continue, just - so,
00:40:19not only Americans called Europe, Zelensky naturally started calling
00:40:23everyone in a hysterical mode, on the very first day, immediately after, there is one mysterious name here,
00:40:27but only one. he called the Prime Minister of Britain, well,
00:40:30of course, the President of France obviously,
00:40:34the Prime Minister of Norway, a lot
00:40:36of money, and the President of Finland for some reason, Stubb, well,
00:40:40probably because Stubb is considered to have the best relations with
00:40:44Trump, personal so to speak, maybe that is what is meant, so, it's clear,
00:40:48now Trump,
00:40:50so, everyone is writing about this and it has been repeatedly emphasized
00:40:54that Trump went for this deal, you are right, Dmitrievich, because.
00:40:57about six requests,
00:41:00demands, calls to stop, so, strikes on Russian oil refineries,
00:41:04Zelensky ignored, and here, so, this
00:41:07repeated ignorance, this is like rudeness so upset Trump that
00:41:11he called on Ukraine, attention, to choose a new
00:41:14leader, since Zelensky does not know
00:41:17how to conclude deals, to this demand joined
00:41:21correctly Elon Musk, listen
00:41:23to Trump,
00:41:26could have settled this war. several times, but he decided not to do it, this is a war that
00:41:30should not have been started at all, we said, you can do whatever you want with Russia,
00:41:34just don't hit oil refineries,
00:41:37because this is a global problem that... you didn't create, and he wants
00:41:41to create problems for the whole world, and you know what I propose, I propose
00:41:45to appoint them a new leader who knows how to conclude deals, because he
00:41:48could have concluded many deals that for some reason he never
00:41:52concluded. I don't think that this is such a charming
00:41:55simplicity, to appoint them a new
00:41:58leader,
00:42:03well, really, but obviously it's not accidental, well listen, well he is a smart person, experienced, adult and so
00:42:07on, to appoint them a new leader.
00:42:10well, this is actually quite a dangerous statement, why do I think for for Trump
00:42:14himself, well imagine, he says it, so everyone, in theory,
00:42:18so to speak, froze in anticipation and horror, what will happen, but suppose if nothing
00:42:21happens, but suppose if Zelensky, so to speak,
00:42:24armed himself with the support of these Europeans, whom he called, and he didn't only call
00:42:28these four, so, he will say, well,
00:42:32never mind, we'll manage without the states somehow, and
00:42:35he will again ignore Trump's seventh request not to hit Russian oil refineries, no, no, no,
00:42:39no,
00:43:07he has now strengthened the demands for a so-called truce and an energy truce deal.
00:43:10There's a new one and so on, he reinforced it, "Let's say you don't do anything for 60 days,
00:43:14and we'll prepare for the elections." Yes, he said, "If I'm ready
00:43:18to hold elections, if Putin doesn't hit Ukraine for 60 days." The same money, just
00:43:21from the side, that's it. No, a brilliant
00:43:25person, but, but it's impossible, it's simply impossible.
00:43:28That's why, unfortunately, Zelensky and the guys from Europe
00:43:32will definitely use everything Trump says against him at this
00:43:36stage, why? Because they need to bring down Trump.
00:44:40Here too, everyone is their own separator. And finally,
00:44:43Trump. Yes, Trump is a handsome man, in my opinion, he killed two
00:44:46birds with one stone, he just killed two birds with one stone. When, Michael, you
00:44:50talk about the fact that, uh, Iran, the whole
00:44:53conflict in the Persian Gulf, yes, it's no secret that
00:44:57American oil producers and sellers earn
00:45:01money on this oil, they earn money whether the oil prices are rising
00:45:04or falling, they use this crisis, but with
00:45:08diesel they don't succeed. but there is no partner, you understand,
00:45:11there is no, there is no one else to play this game with, so that
00:45:15they can also play on the world markets, regarding diesel,
00:45:19against whom is this directed, if Trump will have, Trump
00:45:22is a player, he will play with crude oil as well as
00:45:25oil refining, who is the consumer, who is the most
00:45:28important consumer of oil and oil refining,
00:45:31Europe, Europe will look
00:45:34at Trump, as they are doing now, and and what
00:45:38about us, I, I the first part.
00:49:15The CDU, the Minister of Labor from the Social Democratic Party
00:49:18has already resigned, respectively, because she failed
00:49:21all the reforms. announced by Friedrich Merz. If Chancellor Merz barely
00:49:25gets a rating of 14%. Accordingly, the dissatisfaction of
00:49:29Europeans is growing. Why should we supply weapons to Ukraine, or rather pay for
00:49:32these weapons. Accordingly, yes, objectively, Europe is actually
00:49:36geometrically increasing military
00:49:39production, but this production is mainly drones, interceptor drones,
00:49:42respectively, various artillery means, but not
00:49:46strategic ones, respectively, for example, Rheinmetall practically has no orders for
00:49:50the production of new main battle tanks, about...
00:49:52the Franco-German tank of the new generation simply failed, it was already
00:49:55buried, accordingly, what Europeans bought from Americans,
00:49:59they cannot produce themselves yet, accordingly, here I agree with Michael, most likely
00:50:03Europe may indeed switch to supporting precisely
00:50:06the terrorist attacks of the Ukrainian regime, which already puts it practically
00:50:10on a par with state terrorists, but this is already, as they say, you have to think about
00:50:14what to do with this abscess, as they say, the size of a whole continent, but in
00:50:18general, it can be said that Europeans without American
00:50:21military... let's say, component, currently simply cannot
00:50:25pull Ukraine out, accordingly, either complete degradation, why Trump
00:50:28said they need to appoint a new president, because he perfectly
00:50:32understands that Ukraine is one step away from territorial disintegration, from
00:50:36collapse, if in winter, for example, Kyiv will be practically
00:50:40without sewerage, without light, the same applies to other large Ukrainian cities,
00:50:44then this will actually push the governors or goulash, call them
00:50:47what you want, towards separation from the central government, then it will be
00:50:51necessary to appoint someone... No,
00:51:04not at all, the thing is that the US and
00:51:07the European Union, these two, compare them in terms of
00:51:10legal personality, the US does not perceive the European Union as a legal partner,
00:51:14they perceive the European Union as a subordinate, as a cash cow, whatever you want,
00:51:18the US does not perceive, specifically Trump does not perceive, first,
00:51:22second. Europe knows that they do not have enough strength to
00:51:25resist Trump, they are forced to take into account his strength, if they continue to supply weapons
00:51:29to Ukraine, within the framework of Pearl,
00:51:32because why do I say that Pearl will not be suspended now, and you are right in this
00:51:36regard, Alexander, absolutely right, so why will this happen, the thing is
00:51:40that it will be a torpedoing of Trump's diplomatic efforts
00:51:43to improve this situation, that is, it will actually torpedo his
00:51:47diesel deal, and what is the consequence of this, and this is fraught
00:51:50for the Europeans, that... he rages, and this is very
00:51:54serious for the Europeans, why? Because he is actually holding them like this now,
00:51:58you understand what the whole point is, by the way, listen, excuse me, what kind of,
00:52:01I think I'm his politician.
00:52:44we pump crude oil through Ukraine for Hungary and Slovakia, two European Union countries buy
00:52:48crude oil,
00:52:50European countries buy liquefied gas, and in record amounts, even pipeline
00:52:54gas, Greece, Hungary, and Slovakia buy, that is,
00:52:57Europe is slowly, yes, they
00:53:00say that from January 1, 2027, they will stop, but
00:53:03for some reason now.
00:54:14The European Union not only makes claims against Ukraine now, it constantly
00:54:18delays its entry into its composition, for the simple
00:54:21reason, for the simple reason that when Ukraine begins
00:54:25to actually enter the European Union, it will break apart, and everyone
00:54:28knows this now, it will not enter, and it doesn't matter, this will
00:54:32not happen, I wish it would.
00:54:35Yes, it's clear, that's all, friends, thank you very much,
00:54:38uh, we, of course, by the way, it's also characteristic,
00:54:41yes, it seemed like such a striking statement, we propose to appoint
00:54:45a new leader, we talked about it, but somehow, so to speak,
00:54:48we didn't really concentrate, yes, although, so to speak, it seemed like
00:54:52a sensation, apparently we understand that a change of leader, so
00:54:55to speak, but without changing the main paradigm, nothing will change,
00:54:59maybe that's the point, and the paradigm may be
00:55:02changing, the ice has broken, as all our experts said, without exception,
00:55:06thank you for your attention, we will be back after the break, thank
00:55:07you,
01:00:27work, we are live, the program "Time will show", in the studio is still
01:00:31Anatoly Kuzichev. Donald Trump thanks
01:00:34Putin for diesel, says that prices at gas stations in the States will soon
01:00:38collapse, but there is one nuance here: there is an opinion
01:00:42that the fuel crisis in America was created by Trump himself, actually, due to
01:00:45the escalation with Iran, shipping in the Strait of Hormuz practically
01:00:48stopped, and this is the main
01:00:52route for oil and gas to the world market. Prices, accordingly,
01:00:55rose everywhere. And what does Trump do in this
01:00:58regard? Well, the most obvious thing that will help
01:01:02fix the situation, he is thinking how to rename
01:01:05this strait. Look at this.
01:01:09We are thinking about renaming the Strait of Hormuz to the Strait
01:01:12of Trump. Well, that also seems so-so, from the point
01:01:16of view of PR, marketing. all decisions, imagine if all the newspapers
01:01:19wrote Trump blocked,
01:01:22I don't know, I think it needs to be thought through, the initiative is interesting,
01:01:26but it needs refinement, it's clear that
01:01:29Trump wants to make history, leaving his mark everywhere, including in
01:01:32the Strait of Hormuz, for now there, uh, excuse me for
01:01:36the uncomplicated pun, only burning tankers leave traces, over
01:01:40the weekend three, and two
01:01:42oil tankers were blown up by sea mines when they tried to pass through
01:01:46the strait without coordinating this with the Iranian authorities,
01:01:49another tanker was hit by some unknown projectile, in general,
01:01:53of course, this is not a bad characterization of
01:01:55the situation,
01:01:57and, so to speak, the prospects, I think, when, when there is, when the message in
01:02:01the world press looks like an unknown projectile hit some tanker,
01:02:04what is happening there at all, I want to ask, and I
01:02:07will ask, it's hot in the Middle East,
01:02:10this is the only thing that is completely obvious, the Houthis attacked the international
01:02:14airport in Riyadh, 12 people died.
01:02:33The US, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Palestine, and
01:02:36Sudan. A day later, the Saudi Arabian airport was again under
01:02:39attack, this time one person died, and 11 more
01:02:43were injured. The Houthis promised to continue attacks on
01:02:46Saudi Arabian airports. It is clear
01:02:49that the Arab coalition led by Saudi Arabia called the attack on
01:02:53the airport a war crime and promised a decisive
01:02:56response. Listen.
01:03:11The United States is not in a hurry to provide assistance. In recent
01:03:15weeks, Mohammed bin Salman has repeatedly appealed to Donald Trump with
01:03:19a request to take action jointly with him against the Houthi movement, but
01:03:23so far the United States is limiting its support only to intelligence services.
01:03:26Saudi Arabia is making efforts to turn the fight against'.
01:04:00decision, we act very quickly.
01:04:03Well, accordingly, the question that has already been asked, what is happening there at all, I address
01:04:06to you, Ilin Vladimirovna, we need to at least in some kind of,
01:04:10I don't know, Middle Eastern literacy program, who, with
01:04:13whom, how much, if in the Middle Eastern
01:04:17literacy program, then I can answer what is happening there, everything is bad
01:04:20there, no, in one word, I know that word, no need, can I expand a little,
01:04:24okay, everything fell apart according to the domino
01:04:27principle,
01:04:29and that operation that Donald Trump started
01:04:33against Iran in February of this year, and I would even say earlier,
01:04:36last summer, when attacks on Iranian
01:04:40nuclear facilities began, it pulled a whole complex of events
01:04:43with it, you built the dominos, removed one,
01:04:47everything fell, because the Houthis are
01:04:51in Yemen, they are allies of Iran,
01:04:53and of course they have their own internal Yemeni
01:04:57agenda, but nevertheless they came. activity
01:05:01only after everything around
01:05:04them flared up, the Strait of Hormuz on one side, and where Yemen,
01:05:08the Yemeni Houthis, the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait,
01:05:11Saudi Arabia, seeing that the Strait of Hormuz
01:05:14was partially closed, and there
01:05:18was a period when it was completely closed, began to build
01:05:20alternative routes for oil exports, through
01:05:23Bab-el-Mandeb, and it's also
01:05:27restless there now, the Houthis are hitting
01:05:30targets in Saudi Arabia, and Saudi
01:05:33Arabia, having turned to the US for help, did not find
01:05:37proper support, this is also a big problem. Understood,
01:05:40understood, and tell me please, now Elena Vladimirovna and Sergey, well, if we
01:05:44are talking about the image of dominoes here, do you imagine
01:05:47the entire structure of dominoes, and if so, then
01:05:50it is clear that, so to speak, the sequential fall
01:05:54of these dominoes will lead to the collapse of the entire structure, what does
01:05:57this structure look like, it's burning. it looks like this,
01:06:01that the escalation in Lebanon, the escalation in Syria, in
01:06:04the end what, in the end chaos, what will be like
01:06:08chaos, just chaos, in the end it also turns out that
01:06:11Saudi Arabia needs to look for some allies, in early August
01:06:15Saudi Arabia concluded the Mican agreements with
01:06:18Pakistan and Turkey, but
01:06:22here too everything is not happening very quickly, and why did the US
01:06:25refuse to help, well there are several reasons, they actively
01:06:28refused to help, because... Saudi
01:06:39Arabia was generally shocked by Trump's operation against Iran
01:06:42and did not rush to
01:06:45help
01:06:48Trump has a good memory and is very unpopular in America
01:06:52itself.
01:06:56I would like to continue my colleague's thought about the fact that...
01:07:02everything is bad in the Middle East in terms of education, I would say that not just bad, everything is worse and worse, that's what
01:07:06concerns the Houthis, look,
01:07:08we see this
01:07:11monstrous attack on the airport in Riyadh, when did
01:07:15this happen, this happened a few days after
01:07:18in Yemen itself, the government
01:07:21troops launched the so-called "Operation Dawn" against
01:07:25the Houthis,
01:07:27and again, just last week, this... this so-called
01:07:31"Mican coalition," Pakistan,
01:07:34Saudi Arabia, and Turkey, gathered in
01:07:38Riyadh, which is now under attack, stated that
01:07:41we will not allow.
01:08:12with the states, we call Mikhail Tilman for a direct
01:08:16connection, a political scientist from the United States, our regular expert, Mikhail
01:08:20Vladimirovich, hello, glad to see
01:08:27interesting, Nikolai Mikhailovich rightly said that
01:08:30in fact, one of the motives
01:08:34not to interfere and not to support too much, well, apart from, so to speak,
01:08:37verbally Saudi
01:08:40Arabia, is that the war in the Middle East is all for...
01:09:12that is, a long-term large-scale campaign
01:09:15or some kind of short retaliatory strike,
01:09:19yes, such a short-term, maybe even a one-time one, well, it is absolutely obvious
01:09:23that out of these three options, the last one is the most
01:09:27likely, because as for diplomatic efforts, well, it's not very
01:09:30clear what and how Trump is going to talk to the Houthis,
01:09:34well, you can't really talk to them right now, let's say
01:09:37that, yes, as for a long-term, long-term, so
01:09:40to speak, powerful campaign, for example, well, for this you need forces
01:09:44and means, which the United States simply does not have in this case,
01:09:48that very boulevard that cannot carry two, as Elena said, it did not even
01:09:52carry one, strictly speaking, if you take into account the results of the campaign
01:09:55against Iran, well, look, of the same Tomahawks, so, there were 3,000, now there are
01:09:592,000, thousands were spent, to replenish these
01:10:03thousands, it takes about 5 years, they produce 200 a year now, well, maybe they will increase it,
01:10:06let's say, they will do it in three, the production cycle is 3-4 months,
01:10:10prismatapack - these are such... yes, there are almost none, that is, well,
01:10:14the problem, you understand, that is, so it will most likely be
01:10:17such a one-time demonstrative strike, look how we can
01:10:21punish everyone. And tell me, Mish, what are the current
01:10:24priorities, if so, it is clear that this is a certain simplification, because everything is very interconnected
01:10:28and so on, but nevertheless, if we try to simplify, what
01:10:32are the foreign policy priorities of the United
01:10:35States, is it the Middle East, Ukraine, in that
01:10:39hierarchical order or vice versa, or no priority.
01:10:42or or I don't know, something else, well,
01:10:46the priorities of American foreign policy are based on the national
01:10:49security doctrine, the national security strategy, which was
01:10:53published in November of last year, according to which
01:10:56the following priorities are defined: the first priority is control over the Western
01:11:00Hemisphere by the United States, the second priority is
01:11:03control over the so-called supply chains, that is, not only over
01:11:07maritime routes, but also over the supply of energy carriers, a critically
01:11:10important element of the global economy, third, naturally, the role of the dollar as
01:11:14a strategic asset, these are the priorities, based on this,
01:11:17what is our priority, of course, the Middle East, because this is oil - these
01:11:20are trade routes, one of the main trade routes - this is, of course,
01:11:24the Red Sea, the Suez Canal, but the Suez Canal is meaningless without the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait,
01:11:28which is now practically controlled by the Houthis, so it needs
01:11:31something to be done here, well, plus oil from the Strait of Hormuz, that is, the Middle East
01:11:35is a priority, as for the mention of Ukraine, no, it is not
01:11:39a priority at all, you said, it is the first, Ukraine is the second, Ukraine is not...
01:12:42influenced, but we influence. And, in fact, to news from the front.
01:12:46Our troops continue to push and advance along the entire line of combat contact. Today,
01:12:50the settlement of Nikolskoye in the Zaporozhye region
01:12:54and the settlement of Lidina in the Donetsk People's
01:12:57Republic came under Russia's control. During the liberation of Lidina, Russian troops used
01:13:01continuous fire tactics, which led to
01:13:04The Ukrainian Armed Forces are confused. This is reported by our Ministry of
01:13:07Defense. Over the weekend, Russian Aerospace Forces launched attacks with
01:13:11jet drones and ballistic missiles against data centers,
01:13:15logistics centers and enemy
01:13:18energy infrastructure facilities. Explosions thundered in
01:13:21Sumy, Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Dnipropetrovsk and Kherson regions.
01:13:25It was loud in Kyiv and Odesa. Port
01:13:29infrastructure facilities of Ukraine were also hit. Marine vessels carrying
01:13:32military cargo were also hit. This was also reported by our Ministry of
01:13:36Defense. Four enemy locomotives in Odesa,
01:13:39Kryvyi Rih and Dnipropetrovsk region fell into a fiery trap.
01:13:43Russian Geraniums, having hit electric locomotives,
01:13:47significantly disrupted the transport
01:13:50logistics of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Well, accordingly,
01:13:54it is clear that we...
01:14:25You know, we have a benchmark voiced by the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service,
01:14:29when our
01:14:33special service reported that, in their opinion,
01:14:35Ukraine, in the mode in which they
01:14:38currently exist, in the mode of Russification as it is currently being carried out, will
01:14:41be exhausted somewhere within a year. Accordingly,
01:14:44the intensification of impact on logistics, and generally on the sexual
01:14:47infrastructure of the enemy, creates
01:14:51a burden that may shorten this period.
01:14:54Got it, got it, got it, okay, well, that is,
01:14:58nevertheless, within a year, as the intelligence
01:15:02service reports, yes, it is clear that the situation can
01:15:05significantly, significantly shorten, taking into account, well,
01:15:09of course, taking into account the intensification, so to speak, of intensity, then all this will indeed
01:15:12shorten. Well, Ukraine is already predicted to have a collapse
01:15:16of life support systems in large cities at least, the former head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said,
01:15:20do you remember him, Dmytro Kuleba,
01:15:23listen,
01:15:25I think the worst thing will be the collapse of systems that support
01:15:29the life of a big city, electricity, water, plumbing. If you look
01:15:33at what Russia is aiming for, it's not just energy
01:15:35infrastructure, and the main difference between last winter and this one will
01:15:39be that a year ago Russia was aiming at the
01:15:42energy system to plunge Ukraine into darkness, but now they
01:15:46are hitting the energy system, water supply, supermarket
01:15:50network warehouses, so they don't just want to plunge Ukraine into
01:15:54darkness, they want...
01:16:25Director of the Energy Research Center, you know, there are such, so to speak,
01:16:28linguists, they study dead languages,
01:16:31so I understand that energy research in
01:16:35Ukraine is like studying a dead language of some sort, but nevertheless, while there is
01:16:38still, so to speak, such a center, Alexander
01:16:42Kharchenko is in charge of it, he explains why all this
01:16:45is inevitable, and in fact the answer is kind of consistent,
01:16:48calm, without hysteria, but that's what makes it scary,
01:16:51listen, what element... Which
01:16:55element of the energy system today, in your opinion, remains the weakest
01:16:59link for us, is it generation, is it substations,
01:17:03is it networks or something
01:17:04else?
01:17:08The energy system is a single organism that
01:17:12is united, the Ukrainian energy system is
01:17:15a single whole, therefore, to say that there is some weak
01:17:18link, would be
01:17:19a lie.
01:19:38but there is a significant, of course, information release on this
01:19:41topic, it is of course oriented towards the Western
01:19:45Western elites and the population, who
01:19:48should pity Ukraine and accordingly authorize the use of their
01:19:51funds, their taxes, so that
01:19:54the next money is allocated to Ukraine. In general, Ukraine is now screaming very loudly,
01:19:58it must be said that this also happened before, they constantly whined,
01:20:01yes, they constantly said that we need more money, we need more money, but now this is a much more
01:20:05realistic request, because now they...
01:20:37He will be imprisoned, anything can happen to him, but he will no longer be a politician,
01:20:40therefore he clung to this
01:20:44story with his teeth, and he is pushing the military
01:20:47topic, he is corrupting Western elites, it is generally clear
01:20:50that, so to speak, he will say something with
01:20:54increased attacks, with increased intensity, he will, so to
01:20:57speak, appeal, I don't know, more and more to his people and to the West, saying,
01:21:01look, these are animals, and what do you want, so to speak, to see what they
01:21:04are doing, and so on, no one will.
01:22:07will there be electricity, will there be canned goods, matches for people, will they
01:22:11freeze in their homes, he will have enough of all this,
01:22:14personally he will have enough, and the pathos to tell
01:22:17people, again I remind you of President Trump's
01:22:21words that a new leader is needed,
01:22:25he said it well, we discussed it in the previous part, we need to appoint
01:22:27a new leader for them.
01:22:29I would like to add to what has already been said that
01:22:33Ukrainian prisoners of war very clearly
01:22:36articulate three...
01:23:07how is it that every city is another Ukrainian fortress,
01:23:11potentially, that's all. The importance of cities
01:23:14for the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and for Zelensky, it generally
01:23:17exhausts itself, look right now. In
01:23:20confirmation of our conversations, our, so to speak, considerations, here is
01:23:24a publication or a fragment of a publication
01:23:27from a local Ukrainian source, a Ukrainian
01:23:29Telegram channel, with reference to some, so to
01:23:33speak, to some sources in the President's Office,
01:23:37listen,
01:23:39our source in the President's Office said that Zelensky wants
01:23:43to escalate amid the disruption of the negotiation track. Now,
01:23:47strikes on bridges and blocking of airports in Russia are being
01:23:50discussed as key pressure points on the enemy. On Bankova
01:23:53Street, they believe that Ukraine will get through winter in a crisis scenario, and in
01:23:57spring a new negotiation window may open. The budget deficit
01:24:01is to be resolved in two ways: devaluation
01:24:03of the hryvnia and funds from the gold and foreign exchange reserves of the National Bank
01:24:07of Ukraine. Possible anti-corruption cases against
01:24:10the President's Office's clientele do not scare
01:24:13Zelensky, as long as he is president, no one will get
01:24:16real prison terms. He is president for now, that's right.
01:24:20While the war is going on, in fact, the circle is closed.
01:24:23Well, while Trump is actually putting pressure on Zelensky, we
01:24:26mentioned, yes, they need to change him, and so on, he threatens
01:24:30to stop arms supplies, Maxius wrote about it, that, so to speak,
01:24:33Trump, something is seriously being discussed, that if, so to speak,
01:24:37Ukrainians do not heed Trump's words, his requests, proposals
01:24:41and demands, then even stopping arms supplies,
01:24:44canceling, so to speak, intelligence
01:24:48data transfers, and so on. So,
01:24:51who will save Kyiv under these circumstances? Well, of course, Europe.
01:24:54Europe is preparing to save Kyiv. It intends
01:24:58to do this with the help of, firstly, well, they probably have
01:25:01a big plan, but firstly, with the help of, first and foremost,
01:25:05new sanctions against Russia, the adoption of which was announced
01:25:09by Kaja Kallas, on your screens. Listen. The suspension of sanctions against
01:25:13Russian diesel gives Moscow additional revenue for waging
01:25:16war. Now is not the time to weaken. this week, we will discuss its
01:26:20financing needs for next year and how
01:26:23to attract new international support. This week,
01:26:27the European Union will also provide additional funding for
01:26:30drones and missiles. Well,
01:26:33the exact amount of European support for 2027 is still
01:26:37unclear; it needs to be discussed and
01:26:40agreed upon. Naturally, Zelensky has already, however, boasted
01:26:43that Ukraine will receive 3 billion euros
01:26:47in military support already next.
01:26:52We discussed in great detail with Ursula von der Leyen,
01:26:56literally all relevant areas of our work with the European Union and
01:26:59the decisions needed to support Ukraine. I thanked
01:27:03Ursula for the recent tranche of 1 billion 240 million
01:27:07euros for defense, which has already arrived in Ukraine. I am grateful
01:27:10for the confirmation that another 3 billion euros in military
01:27:14support will be allocated already next
01:27:17week.
01:27:20it sounds pretty impressive, although, of course, compared to these
01:27:2329 billion, 47 billion, 90 billion, and how much
01:27:26else, 300 billion, well,
01:27:29of course,
01:27:31it looks like mockery on the one hand, but on the other hand, no, in
01:27:34a week,
01:27:36it's clear that this week is only one, not that every week, but still he
01:27:40is selling last year's snow, because all this money is within
01:27:43the previously allocated sums, they just transfer it and even
01:27:47not all promised money is transferred.
01:28:20they allocate and allocate, but how do they live themselves? Well, look,
01:28:24here's a Member of the European Parliament, not to say that he's a superstar, but as Fernando
01:28:27Cartaiser said well, he's from
01:28:30Luxembourg, he believes... that the European Council should be renamed the
01:28:34Assembly of Heads of State of Ukraine, because the problem of
01:28:38Ukraine interests him much more than the problems of his own citizens, this is not
01:28:41news to us, but it was said from such a tribune, maybe someone
01:28:45will hear, I don't know, listen
01:28:47to you.
01:28:49The European Council should be called the Assembly of Heads of State and
01:28:53Government of Ukraine, and Koshcha should be replaced by Zelensky. It seems
01:28:57that the EU Council doesn't care about European citizens, in the draft
01:29:00conclusion.
01:29:04migration crisis. Ukraine, on the other hand, has
01:29:08168 lines regarding defense. Thus,
01:29:11168 unconditional lines for Zelensky
01:29:15is unconditional agreement, and for our citizens only
01:29:1813 lines. Since we no longer have money to finance this
01:29:22war, we need to talk about diplomacy and negotiate with
01:29:25Russia, but the European Council prefers to ignore the problems
01:29:29of European citizens in favor of Zelensky's corrupt regime.
01:29:33I don't know, such speeches from the tribune of the European Parliament are becoming more frequent,
01:29:37just the other day another deputy spoke in the same
01:29:40vein, telling what problems there are
01:29:43within the European Union, and how
01:29:47they cannot be solved because a part of the funds, and not
01:29:50a small part, goes to Ukraine, and suspicions of
01:29:54corruption are also voiced, yes, but here
01:29:57it's more interesting not what is voiced, but what will be heard and even
01:30:00who, not immediately, not
01:31:10the situation is changing, it is changing, there is fatigue from
01:31:13Ukraine in all senses, in political,
01:31:16military,
01:31:19economic, yes, finally, generally in
01:31:22a meaningful sense, what is it, what kind of madness is this, therefore these
01:31:26people who are pushing this agenda, also challenging
01:31:29Trump, they are also on their last legs, hmm. specifically,
01:31:33there is fatigue from Zelensky, not only in America, but even in Europe, he
01:31:36does politically unwise things, and because of
01:31:39this, well, then we must pray that he remains as long as
01:31:43possible, because if a person comes who will do politically smart
01:31:46things,
01:31:52and they would want a politically smart one, but Zelensky is against it, it’s just not possible
01:31:56to simply remove him with a flick of a finger, a lot is tied to him, including in
01:32:00Europe, by the way, yes, by the way, yes, when I talked about
01:32:03Trump, I said that this is a dangerous statement for Trump, because imagine, he said that we need
01:32:07to change, well, they discussed Zelensky, yes, and imagine if nothing happens,
01:32:10it seems to me that it’s not good reputationally, so to speak, it will happen, Anatoly,
01:32:14it will happen, it will happen,
01:32:17when, oh, I got it,
01:32:20okay, sooner or later it's clear, I just wanted to add
01:32:23one point, I came across a fact, so, well, an event,
01:32:27which literally happened today, yesterday, the Minister of Labor and
01:32:31Social Protection resigned
01:32:35from Merz, that is, we are used to generalizing European elites, that they are all pro-Ukrainian and so on, but
01:32:39they also have an internal bureaucracy in their countries that is responsible for
01:32:42the economy, for the social sphere, it is sounding the alarm, they
01:32:45say, guys, stop it, what are you doing? How are we going to finance
01:32:48the budget? Now they are writing the budget, so she ran away, because she cannot write the budget
01:32:52for next year, the ends don't meet, she says, "Let's put so much more on defense than
01:32:56before, and you. Tell me where to cut,
01:32:59where to cut, are you crazy,
01:33:03guy?" And this is felt in many
01:33:07countries, this gives rise to
01:33:10what we are talking about.
01:33:13Besides, we saw the president's rating
01:33:16is 15%, the French president
01:33:19said that the upcoming elections this
01:33:22coming year, including in France, everyone is waiting for them
01:33:26with great interest and tension. Two words about Zelensky: you see
01:33:29how expensive he is to European elites that they
01:34:15Well, I would like to add the following to what has been said: Of course, I really
01:34:18want to believe that as soon as possible,
01:34:21not only the visible foundation
01:34:24of the European Union and generally this structure
01:34:27of Euro-globalism in Europe, it will begin to collapse,
01:34:31but practically now, while there are
01:34:34cracks, there are still no seismic, cardinal
01:34:37changes, the power in the hands of
01:34:41m... is still too great to quickly
01:34:45get rid of this, the process will
01:34:58develop, for now, unfortunately, still by
01:35:01inertia, and we observe this, including observing
01:35:05how the ставка on escalation continues, because
01:35:08I repeat, this company simply has no plan B,
01:35:12even already by... but a lot in Europe is still tied to confrontation with
01:35:22Russia, if it does not
01:35:25stop in one way or another, but simply the intensity
01:35:29of this, yes, goes down
01:35:31in degree, of course, of confrontation,
01:35:35then for many representatives of the European
01:35:38political establishment this may end not
01:35:41only, I believe, in political death, but for
01:35:51But it won't end there. After the break, we'll be back in the studio,
01:40:28At the end of the program, here are a few statements from
01:40:32Russian officials, very interesting and important. We were talking today,
01:40:35yes, mentioning these flashes of consciousness, bubbles of Zelensky's consciousness, which
01:40:39burst from time to time, one thing then another,
01:40:42then he's ready to hold elections, provided that Putin
01:40:46doesn't strike Ukraine for 2 months. Putin will be ready
01:40:49not to strike Ukraine for only one day, if
01:40:53Ukraine decides to hold elections, said presidential spokesman
01:40:57Dmitry Peskov, adding 60 days. that Zelensky is demanding are not needed for
01:41:00holding elections, but to gather strength, heal wounds and
01:41:03continue the war. The
01:41:07Russian Foreign Ministry expressed roughly the same position, yes, our presidential spokesman
01:41:11added that we do not want a ceasefire, we want long-term
01:41:14peace, and are ready to do everything possible to achieve it. The Russian Foreign Ministry expressed the same
01:41:18position. Lavrov stated that Zelensky does not deserve a respite on
01:41:22the battlefield, and Russia will not be fooled by his
01:41:25statements. On this high note, I thank you all
01:41:28for your attention, see you
01:41:37Good afternoon, "The Great Game" is live, I am Vyacheslav
01:41:40Nikonov. Well, we have found ourselves in
01:41:44a new geopolitical, military-strategic
01:41:47reality after a phone conversation between two
01:41:50presidents on Friday,
01:41:53a conversation that lasted an hour and a half.
01:41:57Some momentous decisions were reached. Well,
01:42:01first of all, the decision that the United States
01:42:04allows the export of Russian diesel
01:42:07and is going to purchase it in fairly large
01:42:11volumes. This exploded the global information
01:42:14space and the global political agenda. In fact,
01:42:17the situation has indeed sharply changed,
01:42:21and what are these changes, in what
01:42:24direction, what does this mean for the special...
01:42:59During the phone conversation on October 9th with US President
01:43:02Donald Trump, significant attention was paid to the prospects of resolving
01:43:06the Ukrainian crisis, also touching upon the situation around Iran and various aspects
01:43:10of bilateral relations. When discussing the situation in global
01:43:13energy, the Russian side confirmed its readiness to supply
01:43:16oil and oil products to the American and global markets. The agreement on continuing
01:43:20personal contacts between the presidents of the two
01:43:23countries was confirmed, as well as cooperation between the presidential administrations.
01:43:29Russia, as is known, suspended the export
01:43:33of diesel fuel, although we have quite
01:43:37decent diesel reserves. There were problems,
01:43:40if anyone noticed.
