00:00:07His speech was almost no different from Hitler's
00:00:11rallies, neither in atmosphere nor in rhetoric, from a high
00:00:14tribune in Poland, the call to kill "Sovoks" and "Moskals"
00:00:18is heard again.
00:00:22The Polish interest is that Ukraine and Ukrainian soldiers
00:00:26deal with the post-Soviet Russian
00:00:29Federation as well as possible. And keep it as far as possible from
00:00:32Poland, this is, of course, the strategy of the Polish state, let them
00:00:36kill the "Sovoks" who attacked them, the Poles don't mind,
00:00:39in this regard they can always count on our
00:00:43help, because where a "Moskal" is beaten, Poland helps,
00:00:46even if it does not participate directly in this
00:00:49war.
00:00:59So... This is Poland's strategic interest,
00:01:03but Poland's strategic interest is also that the flags of the
00:01:07Banderites are not developed in Warsaw and throughout Poland.
00:01:22Note the level of hypocrisy of Navrotsky, it is difficult
00:01:26to cure him of historical amnesia, having previously headed the
00:01:30Institute of National Memory, he perfectly understands
00:01:33how to circumvent inconvenient facts, because if you accuse
00:01:37Ukraine of creating a pantheon of national heroes from Hitler's
00:01:40collaborators, it is worth clarifying one more nuance: the national
00:01:43hero of Poland, Yuzov Piłsudski, was also such a collaborator of Hitler. The German
00:01:47boot, and not only smacking with pleasure, they kissed
00:01:51together. After the death of Piłsudski, Hitler declared
00:01:54national mourning in Reich and sent condolences to Poland.
00:01:58For propaganda purposes, they even made a photo with the Führer at the coffin,
00:02:01note, it was not Hitler, but Piłsudski who was the creator of the first
00:02:05concentration camp on the territory of Belarus from 1934,
00:02:09in Bereza Kartuska, on the orders of Piłsudski,
00:02:12political opponents, including Belarusians, Ukrainians, Jews and
00:02:15even Poles, were dealt with. How fundamentally does the Polish hero Piłsudski differ
00:02:19from the Ukrainian hero Bandera? Both are smeared with the black paint
00:02:23of Nazism, together they pursued the goal - to cut "Moskals" and
00:02:26"Soviets", as he expressed it.
00:02:53to the President of Ukraine, President Zelensky, you have already partially mentioned this, but can you tell us Europeans what we
00:02:56specifically can do to help...
00:03:00you kill more Russians, of course more Russian
00:03:04soldiers. I also
00:03:06ask this, have you discussed
00:03:10any issues regarding defense cooperation and joint drone production
00:03:14with your Serbian host country. Thank you
00:03:17very much. It's interesting that the curious
00:03:20Martens himself is not in a hurry to stand at the gas chamber switch or
00:03:24jump into a trench with a machine gun. They plan to continue killing "Sovoks"
00:03:27with Ukrainian hands.
00:03:30"Sovoks" shoot "Sovoks", as the late Graham said, this is the best
00:03:34investment of American money, especially since the conflict is systematically
00:03:37moving up the spiral of escalation, military operations
00:03:40have gone far beyond the front line, the infrastructure war
00:03:44turns large cities into a deadly trap. Russia
00:03:47has long avoided strikes on critical
00:03:50infrastructure, food warehouses, power plants and
00:03:54boiler houses remained outside the scope of the conflict.
00:03:57The situation changed the notorious logistics.
00:04:13they are unprecedented, so it can be said
00:04:17that this model of influence
00:04:20on the results of elections in the Russian Federation,
00:04:24which was launched in recent months,
00:04:27it, well, has a very high price. price for our logistics,
00:04:31for our retail, when all this flew to logistics
00:04:35warehouses, to logistics, to retail, all these
00:04:38warehouses were filled with huge volumes of goods, employees worked
00:04:41there, and now logistics will be
00:04:44reoriented to what, to work from the wheels, it will
00:04:47refuse from large centers, large
00:04:51centers for storing goods, accordingly this will only affect the
00:04:54price, rising food prices
00:04:58entail a series of consequences. for many they will become
00:05:01inaccessible, which means that the number of crashes and crime
00:05:05in general will increase. Add to this power outages and
00:05:08lack of central heating. Ultimately,
00:05:11large cities of Ukraine become arenas of struggle for
00:05:14survival.
00:05:18The Ukrainian-Russian conflict entered the stage of a war of
00:05:21cities. Military operations are being conducted not only and not so much along a narrow
00:05:25strip of the front, but everywhere one can reach. For
00:05:29Ukraine, this is bad news, its political and economic geography
00:05:32is such that one can reach anywhere, any object
00:05:36of a populated area. The authorities realize this and have begun active
00:05:39patriotic indoctrination. You citizens are waiting.
00:05:45One cannot hide from the sad reality in which we all live,
00:05:48anxiety, 30 seconds, explosion, this is now not
00:05:52only the reality of Kyiv, but also Sumy, Kharkiv, where even
00:05:55ballistic missiles are not needed, there Kabams reach perfectly, I am
00:05:59for people to understand what reality is, it is now such, and
00:06:03there is no reason to expect changes. In
00:06:06Ukraine, four types of objects are shelled: industrial enterprises,
00:06:10hypermarkets, railway.
00:06:12ready infrastructure, their destruction has a cumulative effect.
00:06:16Ukraine loses revenue from exports, the population loses access to
00:06:20many goods, including food. And the consequences of
00:06:23this are not momentary, but long-term. Bread
00:06:26became scarce, and will become
00:06:28even less. The spring sowing campaign will have
00:06:32nothing to be carried out with, if in six months the export of
00:06:36Ukrainian agricultural products by sea is not resumed. If we assume that in
00:06:39this season we should receive 83.
00:06:54but due to the fact that the sea route is not working, we can export barely
00:06:56half. For citizens, the real war in many ways
00:07:00has only just begun. Recently, foreign visitors noted that in
00:07:03the cities of the country there is a chat of revelry, carousing, restaurants, festivals, crowds
00:07:07of strolling people on the boulevards, the beau monde and demi-monde
00:07:10are only concerned about not being caught
00:07:13catching men on the streets, should we allow men to leave? if we allow
00:07:16men to leave, then the mobilization of women will begin, so
00:07:19I think it's not necessary to allow it. there are many such
00:07:22who are just waiting for the border to open and will immediately fly away,
00:07:25so I think it's better not to allow it. one way or
00:07:29another, now the war has literally come to every home, the
00:07:32population no longer feels as if they are observing everything from the side, while
00:07:36the development of the military situation has deprived the authorities of the incentive to prepare for
00:07:39the heating season.
00:07:45We must be realistic, it is necessary to monitor the quality and
00:07:48speed of the authorities' preparation for the new heating season,
00:07:52especially in cities with millions of inhabitants. Obviously, the preparation is going
00:07:55somehow, so every city dweller will have to
00:07:58decide whether he is ready to live here without water, light
00:08:02and heat.
00:08:04Experts, of whom there are countless in Ukraine today, suggest not to panic. Indeed,
00:08:07when there is no water, heat, light, one will just have to
00:08:11go to the village to Granny Odarka, fresh
00:08:15milk and village greens will quickly cure you of the blues, though such
00:08:18advice, like "let them eat brioches" when there is no
00:08:22bread. If you work as a cashier or
00:08:25a teacher, moving to a rural house is absolutely not for you, at least
00:08:29250,000 hryvnias are needed for winter, for firewood, gasoline
00:08:33for a car, internet, power generators and so
00:08:36on, calls to leave cities are only for the rich,
00:08:40for people with a salary of 15-2000.
00:09:42There will be no hunger in Ukraine, I say immediately. Goods in convenience
00:09:46stores, however, come from the same mega-warehouses as in
00:09:50supermarkets. The only difference is that there is a different number
00:09:53of intermediate links between them and the buyer. Anyway, even official optimists
00:09:57on the payroll assess the situation, describing a rather narrow range
00:10:01of options: from "hardships will be unbearable" to "a catastrophe awaits
00:10:04us". It seems that in the coming days, Trump's negotiators,
00:10:07Witkowski and Kushner, are arriving in Kyiv, because of the possibility
00:10:10of concluding even a bad, but still, peace, one should grasp at it like
00:10:14a straw, but according to all signs, completely different sentiments prevail
00:10:17in the highest echelons of Ukrainian power, probably also
00:10:20because it concerns people for whom the problems of water, light,
00:10:24heat,
00:10:37For the Kyiv regime, it is convenient to attribute communal and domestic problems to
00:10:41Russian strikes, but in reality, even without them, Ukraine
00:10:44faced dilapidated communications, substations, and
00:10:48roads. No one invested anything in housing and communal services
00:10:51for decades; officials parasitized on the Soviet
00:10:54legacy. The presence of a good excuse is envied by
00:10:58Lithuanian bureaucrats. Peaceful Vilnius often looks
00:11:02worse than warring Kyiv. This is not even my opinion. Reports
00:11:05from Lithuanian journalists give everyone the opportunity to draw
00:11:09their own conclusions. Vilnius, once calling
00:11:12itself the European G-spot, last year even received
00:11:16the title of green capital of the Old Continent, still cannot
00:11:20deal with houses without water, sewerage, and the
00:11:24dilapidated outdoor toilets
00:11:27standing next to them. That's what still exists, just a kilometer
00:11:30from the Old Town. One toilet is even accessible, though
00:11:33dilapidated. The neighboring one is possibly cozier,
00:11:37but locked with a padlock, you see.
00:11:40Some residents made keys for themselves, arranged
00:11:43a VIP place there. This wooden house is one of the few in
00:11:47Vilnius still without sewerage and plumbing.
00:11:50There are seven apartments here. Lilia bought one of them a year
00:11:53ago. It's strange how people can be
00:11:57without water and toilets practically in the center of the city when we
00:12:01are trying to be leaders in Europe?
00:12:04They are trying to find rock bottom not only in Lithuania, the life of an ordinary
00:12:07person dissolves in the geopolitical ambitions of the White
00:12:11House. The information space was once again
00:12:14stirred up by footage from American streets, homeless
00:12:17people, in attempts to improve their existence, find very
00:12:21creative solutions so that local police do not...
00:12:25or people try to climb higher, shacks are built on
00:12:28trees, multi-story buildings are erected from plywood,
00:12:31the American dream certainly did not consist of such a way
00:12:35of life, however, in the current situation, buying one's own home
00:12:38is practically impossible. The great lie of the 20th century, its
00:12:42essence is that everyone owns their own home and invests all their savings
00:12:46in one asset. And if you do that, the only way
00:12:49to preserve the well-being of Americans or the stability of the middle class is to
00:12:53maintain rising housing prices. because that is your only asset.
00:12:56So, if you want your capital to grow every year, you need
00:13:00a policy that will annually increase housing prices,
00:13:04ultimately this led to the fact that today young people cannot
00:13:07afford these insanely expensive homes. Before, 30-40 years ago, you got
00:13:11a good job and could buy a house. Trump promised to pay attention
00:13:14to them, to deal with internal problems, the difficult
00:13:17life of the common American, however, he got bogged down in the conflict in the Middle
00:13:21East, and even there people were left to their own
00:13:24devices. American sailors almost mutinied on
00:13:27an aircraft carrier, let's discuss what is happening with a specialized expert, we have as a guest
00:13:31military analyst Andrei Bogadel, Andrei Petrovich, hello, hello,
00:13:35what is actually happening, we understand that, probably, it's not that simple,
00:13:38because the whole internet is discussing the combat readiness of American
00:13:42troops, it's unclear whether American
00:13:45sailors, without Coca-Cola, so to speak, refuse to continue bombing Iran, or
00:13:49are there some other reasons, and today the agenda,
00:13:53primarily related to Iran, is at the forefront, and here
00:13:56is an aircraft carrier, the pride of the American fleet, well, not just the fleet,
00:14:00the pride of all America, suddenly malnutrition, dirty
00:14:03latrines, unwashed deck, all the rest,
00:14:07sailors who want to go home, well, what's not a picture
00:14:10to show what this very Trump led to, what is
00:14:13Pete Hekso doing, isn't it time to remove him, remove him, why do we have a minister
00:14:16of war, give us a normal head of the Pentagon, and they will, of course,
00:14:20be shouting about this absolutely everyone today.
00:14:23абсолютно все.
00:14:55to create a general impression of the armed forces, of the
00:14:59Navy, primarily of the United States, that this is the best
00:15:02fleet, the best sailors, go serve there, because well
00:15:06we pay money for it, Andrey Petrovich, is there wear and tear on these
00:15:09aircraft carriers that are being discussed? Of course, let's just say,
00:15:13there is such a thing as sailing autonomy, and in this sailing
00:15:16autonomy we understand, it is the amount of ammunition, if you perform combat
00:15:20missions, the amount of fuel, well, in this case there are
00:15:23power plants. nuclear, but there are other
00:15:26auxiliary various installations that need to be maintained, after all, planes must
00:15:30fly with fuel every day to perform combat missions,
00:15:34this is a supply of provisions, a supply of drinking water, this is also. there are
00:15:37nuances, but I very much doubt that sailors are
00:15:40under-supplied with something, yes, hardships and deprivations, they are always present in
00:15:44absolutely any army, there are, as they say, nuances related
00:15:47specifically to the peculiarities of, for example, the same
00:15:51region, that the crew is acclimatizing, during this
00:15:54time, I think, it has already happened repeatedly, so of course, today this
00:15:58is primarily used as an informational, information
00:16:01and political occasion. As for the military component, we see that another
00:16:05aircraft carrier is coming to help, that is, a rotation is taking place.
00:16:08Americans were forced under public
00:16:11pressure to change the aircraft carrier, that is, from the Seventh
00:16:14Fleet - the Pacific to transfer to the Fifth
00:16:17Fleet, which is currently in the Arabian Sea, in order to replace this
00:16:20Lincoln, which has been performing combat missions there for 280
00:16:23days and some change. A similar aircraft carrier
00:16:27is going there, despite the fact that at the same time the Americans, together with
00:16:31the South Koreans, are conducting military exercises, and it was
00:16:34the aircraft carrier strike group in these exercises that was supposed to...
00:16:52for the Chinese, this is also a serious reason to think,
00:16:55that oh, so it turns out that the Americans don't have enough
00:16:58aircraft, there are 10 on paper, today only
00:17:01two aircraft carriers are actually performing combat missions, one is already
00:17:04completely demoralized, and by their own media...
00:17:08Gerald Ford is laid up, two more aircraft carriers on
00:17:12the western and eastern coasts of the United States are undergoing sea
00:17:15trials, some other exercises are being held with them separately, and one can conclude,
00:17:19is the Hegemon really not the same anymore, and
00:17:22at the same time you start looking at the power of the Chinese People's Republic
00:17:26in a completely different way, which is forming a fundamentally new modern
00:17:30fleet, already the words of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin
00:17:33sound completely more threatening for all
00:17:37these. Western countries, who and what can play today
00:17:40specifically in the sea and ocean spaces,
00:17:43and where are the United States today, in principle, we
00:17:47see that, in essence, all the attention of the entire fleet
00:17:50is focused specifically on the Arabian Sea. Andrey Petrovich, this is also an extremely interesting
00:17:54point, that an aircraft carrier has to be removed from the direction that
00:17:58you consider a priority and strategic in the Indo-Pacific
00:18:01region, we have already broken all our tongues telling ourselves that for the United
00:18:05States this is the main task somewhere under...
00:18:37to obtain the necessary result, and for this, of course, it is necessary to
00:18:40create, first of all, that this is a blockade,
00:18:44a naval economic blockade so that Iran
00:18:47agrees to the terms of the United States of America,
00:18:51certain difficulties arise, certain problems, I don't think it's necessary
00:18:54to unequivocally drag everything towards these pre-election
00:18:57elections to Congress, I don't think that's the key element,
00:19:01here the key element is a little bit different, this is the confrontation
00:19:04of global elites, national elites. Well, and the
00:19:08interests of the Gulf monarchies that are ultimately located there, which
00:19:11have already begun to unite into their own military alliances in order to
00:19:15fill this vacuum that was formed after the Iranian
00:19:18strikes, where American military bases disappeared. Andrey
00:19:22Petrovich, well, you already said, demoralized military
00:19:26on the Lincoln, I would like to understand, in the conditions of modern
00:19:29warfare it turns out that mass media is sometimes
00:19:32more important than an aircraft carrier, and
00:19:36this has always been the case, that is, a demoralized army.
00:20:07performing combat missions is very problematic, but nevertheless the aircraft carrier
00:20:10must constantly change its course, constantly move in the sea, to
00:20:14exclude, firstly, hitting such ballistic missiles, secondly
00:20:18- to counter anti-ship
00:20:20missiles, but Iran today has difficulties, because their Navy
00:20:24is essentially no longer their own, and of course
00:20:27to counter drones, unmanned aerial vehicles, that is
00:20:31the most important thing, so there is constant movement, not
00:20:34for a second can the aircraft carrier stop anywhere, and...
00:20:38and this means that today the sailors are, for the most part, confined
00:20:41to a certain space, only a limited number of personnel can go
00:20:45up to the deck, and even if walks are still provided, they are usually
00:20:49used below deck or at night or in the evening when
00:20:52tasks are not being performed on certain upper decks of this
00:20:56aircraft carrier, everything else is people who are essentially in an iron
00:20:59box, who perform their combat missions in their places
00:21:03or rest in their
00:21:04cabins.
00:21:09Chaos in the American army reinforces the fears of the Persian
00:21:12Gulf countries. The White House is no longer able to ensure
00:21:16security by the mere fact of its presence in the region.
00:21:20Under certain circumstances, the situation works in reverse:
00:21:23a US military base on the territory of a state
00:21:26becomes a pretext and reason for strikes from
00:21:30neighboring countries. At least, that's how events unfolded
00:21:33after an attempt to drive Iran back to the Stone Age.
00:21:37The fears are reinforced by the behavior of the closest
00:21:40US allies in the North Atlantic Alliance,
00:21:43who did not even show up for the war. I think
00:21:47the US had a strategy Plan A. It was completely
00:21:50unrealistic, it failed in the first 3
00:21:54days, since then the US has essentially been improvising in this
00:21:57war. They act tactically, possibly
00:22:00achieving operational successes, but nothing that
00:22:04could be called a strategic success is happening.
00:22:07The initial idea was to overthrow the regime, and
00:22:11it was assumed that the regime would either collapse or surrender within
00:22:144 days. When this did not happen, the Iranians escalated
00:22:17on all fronts, the US had no answer,
00:22:21they had no answer to the strait blockade, because they
00:22:24believed, partly convinced by the Israelis, that the Iranians
00:22:28would not be able to block the Strait of Hormuz and strike all the Persian
00:22:32Gulf countries. Thus, the US had a completely
00:22:35unrealistic Plan A, and no Plan B, since then
00:22:39they have been stuck in this situation. Trump's statements
00:22:42about a crushing victory over Iran, which are replaced
00:22:45by threats to deliver a decisive blow, have practically
00:22:49nullified. The US, Middle Eastern countries
00:22:53are forced to take the situation into their own
00:22:55hands.
00:22:59For several months, the world has been watching how American military
00:23:02efforts fail, the resilience and determination of Tehran
00:23:06challenge established myths about the invincibility of the US
00:23:09army. Regional countries no longer trust the American security
00:23:13umbrella, which previously served as a guarantee of stability. In the
00:23:17holy city of Mecca, Turkey, Pakistan and Saudi
00:23:20Arabia signed an agreement on mutual assistance, similar to Article 5
00:23:24of the North Atlantic Alliance. An attack on one of these countries will
00:23:28be considered aggression against all participants of the pact.
00:23:31The formation of such an alliance was a response to the security vacuum
00:23:35that emerged in the region. The new military bloc completely changes the balance of power
00:23:39in the Middle East. It seems to me that this is a reflection
00:23:43of the fact that the idea of security guarantees from
00:23:46the US is no longer as attractive and reliable as
00:23:49before. You know, for a long time Saudi Arabia's strategy was
00:23:53to seek clear security guarantees from
00:23:56the US, commitments similar to Article 5 of the North Atlantic
00:24:00Treaty. The sense of implicit security guarantees from the US
00:24:04in the Persian Gulf arose back during the Carter
00:24:07Doctrine. In the past, this was reinforced by the US reaction to
00:24:10events such as the Gulf War, but in recent
00:24:14years it has become increasingly clear that
00:24:16the US is not always willing to provide such.
00:24:27And I think that the countries of the Persian Gulf are increasingly doubting whether they should fully rely on US policy in the region?
00:24:31The agreements reached during the negotiations are so far limited to
00:24:34written commitments of mutual assistance. Unlike NATO,
00:24:38this alliance lacks unified governing bodies and coordination
00:24:42of actions. In addition, each of the signatories has its own interests and
00:24:45challenges. Turkey considers Israel a potential threat,
00:24:49Pakistan faces tense relations with
00:24:52India, and Saudi Arabia is concerned about the actions of Iran and
00:24:55Yemeni Houthis. Nevertheless, the Mecca agreements open
00:24:59up new opportunities for forming a system of deterrence and
00:25:02projecting influence in the region. On October 7,
00:25:05Israel bombed Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, right, and it also bombed
00:25:08Iran. Thus, an uncontrollable Israel,
00:25:12a militarized Israel, also poses a threat
00:25:15to Turkey's security. In addition, Israeli leaders are already
00:25:19warning.
00:25:50countries to strengthen the military bloc with their unique advantages.
00:25:53Saudi Arabia, one of the world's oil suppliers, possesses
00:25:57impressive financial capabilities. Turkey is known
00:26:00for the production of modern weapons, in particular
00:26:04unmanned systems. Pakistan, in turn, is the only
00:26:07Islamic state with a nuclear bomb. Sunni
00:26:11NATO is literally money, bomb, production. An important
00:26:15aspect of joint activities will inevitably be the topic of nuclear
00:26:18weapons. In addition, in July, the US announced the conclusion of an unprecedented
00:26:22deal with Saudi Arabia on cooperation in the field of nuclear
00:26:25energy. The kingdom's infrastructure may be supplemented
00:26:29with uranium enrichment facilities, although Tehran has already
00:26:32shown the whole world that the most effective weapon of mass
00:26:35destruction in modern conflicts is far from a nuclear
00:26:39bomb. I will say frankly, our nuclear bomb is the hearts
00:26:43of people around the world, which we have won by fighting
00:26:46oppression. Islamic values and divine values
00:26:50of the Islamic revolution are conquering the world. Nuclear bombs
00:26:54are not needed, no bloodshed is needed. Sunni NATO
00:26:57may turn out to be an American Trojan horse in the Persian Gulf. Donald
00:27:01Trump has already congratulated the bloc's participants, calling the Mecca
00:27:04agreement a step towards the unity of the Middle East. The White House
00:27:07is literally trying to ride and break in the new force in the region.
00:27:11However, in this matter there is a high probability of meeting a horseshoe
00:27:14face-to-face. To tame European partners and influence the Sunni
00:27:18alliance are tasks of different orders. Success will allow the White
00:27:21House to indirectly influence the situation in the region, avoiding
00:27:24direct participation. The US no longer has the strength or
00:27:28capabilities for this. I think that after our adventures in the Middle
00:27:31East. Over the past couple of decades, America has lost
00:27:35the ability to conduct ground military campaigns. I think what
00:27:38Trump is doing, for example, in Venezuela or Iran, is a completely
00:27:42new type of warfare for the United States. It probably needs
00:27:45to stop being the world's police and become the world's arms dealer. We need
00:27:49to give people who work with us and are even more interested in these issues than
00:27:52we are, the tools necessary for self-defense, hopefully, to protect US
00:27:56interests. I don't think it will come to ground operations. Maybe in a week I will
00:28:00take my words back, but I don't think we will.
00:28:03The status of a weapons hypermarket on the world stage once already made
00:28:07the US a superpower. They successfully traded with Germany and
00:28:11gladly sent Lend-Lease to the Soviet Union on credit. After
00:28:14World War II, the American company Ford even managed
00:28:18to receive compensation for damage caused to its factories in
00:28:21Germany. Trump is leading the country into a new historical
00:28:25cycle.
00:28:30The Western world is full of surprises, for now. The US dreams of returning to
00:28:34the status of a global arms marketplace.
00:28:37France is giving up its role as a global slave supplier.
00:28:41178 years after the abolition of slavery, France
00:28:45is eliminating the Black Code, which defined a person
00:28:48as movable property. Think about it, in
00:28:512026, French legislation
00:28:54provided for the official possibility of trading people and
00:28:58applying physical coercion to them to stimulate labor
00:29:01activity.
00:30:02days, this is an extremely curious situation that is worth
00:30:06looking at from different sides. It turns out that all this time
00:30:09French corporations, which continue to practice slavery in
00:30:13Africa, acted according to the letter
00:30:15of the law.
00:30:20France is once again clumsily trying to hang its
00:30:23cork helmet of colonialism on a nail. The fact is that it was the
00:30:26exploitation of overseas territories that laid the foundation
00:30:30of the modern state. The entire economic component
00:30:33of France was provided by the free labor of slaves and
00:30:36the supply of raw materials to the metropole. The Black
00:30:39Code was a crucial component of this
00:30:42process. It allowed planters to relieve themselves of
00:30:45the moral aspect of what was happening and shift
00:30:48it to legal norms. The oppressor instantly
00:30:52became a law-abiding citizen. The articles
00:30:55fully regulated how to treat the enslaved
00:30:58population. Only in 1794,
00:31:02under societal pressure, did the French state
00:31:05make the first attempt to abolish slavery.
00:31:08Eight years later, Napoleon reversed this decision and re-legalized
00:31:12slavery. The country needed it. The next abolition
00:31:16was announced only 46
00:31:19years later. As we can see, for the Elysée Palace, slavery and
00:31:23exploitation are not moral categories, but
00:31:26political ones. When economically necessary, the process
00:31:30is easily reversed. The Black Code waited its turn
00:31:33until 2026.
00:31:36Many people indeed fought for the abolition of this
00:31:39code, but for successive French
00:31:43governments, it was not.
00:32:16Because I am glad that the discussion has started, because now we
00:32:19can talk about reparations. Only France itself received
00:32:23reparations until now. In 1804,
00:32:26slaves in Haiti revolted and declared
00:32:28independence. Paris sent a military armada
00:32:32and demanded compensation for lost profits. To
00:32:35gain independence, the local residents had to pay France
00:32:39approximately 200 billion dollars, adjusted for inflation.
00:32:42The debt was only repaid 22
00:32:45years later. France received the last payment already in
00:32:481947. French
00:32:51"old money" is wealth transferred from black people to
00:32:55merchant families, who still
00:32:58generate income. They formed primary
00:33:01capital through oppression and laid the foundation for the development
00:33:04of modern economic monsters in France. They
00:33:08cling to their roots and continue to exploit
00:33:11the African population.
00:33:14to work
00:33:20in slave-like conditions for French companies. Resources
00:33:23still flow to the metropole.
00:33:26France controls controlling stakes in three
00:33:29Nigerien uranium mining enterprises. The main
00:33:32operator is the company "Orano". They are not fighting
00:33:36for the right to own businesses. They are fighting for jobs.
00:33:40So perhaps, in fact, the question
00:33:44is this: who provides jobs,
00:33:46who owns the business for jobs, which young people
00:33:50are currently fighting for.
00:33:53If you go hunting and
00:33:57kill a kudu or
00:33:58a springbok,
00:34:01then you take all the meat, cook it for your
00:34:04children, and throw the bones to the dogs, and the dogs will
00:34:08fight over them, but the dogs will never ask, "Where's
00:34:12the rest of the meat we got?"
00:34:16The business model built on parasitism
00:34:18keeps business in the hands of colonialists,
00:34:21parasites. The colonial system of France maintains its
00:34:25influence in Africa through financial instruments. In the
00:34:28region, the French Franc system operates. With its
00:34:32help, Paris fully controls the monetary and foreign exchange
00:34:35system of the region. The Central Bank of West African
00:34:39states is obliged to keep its reserves in
00:34:41an operating account with the French Treasury.
00:34:45The abolition of the Black Code does not mean the cessation of
00:34:49slave exploitation, and in Africa, they understand
00:34:52this perfectly well. In February, at the Munich Security
00:34:55Conference, when I heard the Minister
00:34:58of Foreign Affairs, S. Marc Rubio, say that
00:35:02Europeans, Western Europeans, must
00:35:05protect their civilization. He almost
00:35:08said that if necessary, we must re-colonize
00:35:11these countries, so he made it clear to you
00:35:14that such thinking is alive and well, and
00:35:17if I ever doubted it, then after
00:35:21Ghana's President John Dramani Mahama brought to the
00:35:24UN a resolution that
00:35:27the transatlantic slave trade was a crime against
00:35:31humanity. The United States of America, Israel, and
00:35:34Argentina voted against
00:35:36the resolution.
00:35:40And all European powers, including France, all
00:35:43colonialists abstained.
00:35:46What does this say? It says that in their
00:35:50opinion, African countries are still suitable for
00:35:54colonization. Remember that the DNA of a colonizer does not
00:35:57change.
00:36:01They just wear different masks. The dependent situation of African
00:36:05states does not allow them to escape the raw materials
00:36:08economy. Deliberate limitation of industrial development
00:36:12and creation of points of tension
00:36:15leave the countries of West Africa with the status of raw material
00:36:18appendages
00:36:19of France.
00:36:24The economic miracle of the European Union. African
00:36:27slaves and Russian energy resources. Both are losing
00:36:31relevance, which means exposing the real situation
00:36:34of European countries. The decline of German industry has become the most
00:36:38indicative example. All of this inevitably affects
00:36:41every European worker. The patience of Germans
00:36:44is running out. People are demanding order back on the streets and in their
00:36:48wallets. Let's discuss the situation with Bundestag deputy from the Alternative for Germany
00:36:51party, Yevgeny
00:36:59press is cautiously seeing off the federal
00:37:02chancellor into retirement. What is this
00:37:04wave connected with?
00:37:06Yes, indeed, lately Friedrich Merz has been
00:37:10a lame duck of German politics. The media
00:37:14is already quite openly predicting his
00:37:17imminent resignation, even his
00:37:19party colleagues. The fact is that he enjoys maximum
00:37:23unpopularity among the population, among voters. Recent
00:37:27public opinion polls show that about
00:37:3113% of citizens trust
00:37:34him, and his anti-rating also
00:37:37drags down the entire coalition, all parties
00:37:41in the coalition. This dislike
00:37:44of voters for Merz is precisely the
00:37:47factor that threatens his imminent
00:37:51resignation. What, in your opinion, caused the protests in
00:37:55Plauen? What do ordinary people want?
00:37:59Yes, a non-partisan initiative,
00:38:02"1 Million", roughly translated, has started in
00:38:06Germany. It is organized by a private individual, without
00:38:10any party support. The goal is to bring a million
00:38:13people to the streets, ultimately,
00:38:16to... that is, their main slogan is the resignation of the
00:38:19Merz government, that Merz must resign prematurely.
00:38:23In the city of Plauen, it's a small town. This
00:38:26was
00:38:31already the second procession. Before that, 2 months
00:38:34ago, there was an action in Berlin, there were only 200 people, which
00:38:38is already, by the way, quite a lot for such a private initiative. About
00:38:4210-20 thousand people from all over
00:38:45Germany came to Plauen. The participants of the action, here
00:38:48certain parallels are drawn, because at one time
00:38:52it was in the city of Plauen that mass protests began,
00:38:56which... was the starting point for
00:39:00the end of the existence
00:39:02of the GDR. Evgeny, in your opinion, are the upcoming elections in
00:39:06the federal state of Saxony-Anhalt an ordinary
00:39:10event or are parties making bets on this
00:39:12region? Yes, on September 6,
00:39:16significant elections will be held in this eastern state. In fact,
00:39:20it's a small state in terms of population,
00:39:23but a special situation has developed there. The fact is that, in
00:39:26principle, in the eastern states, the states of the former GDR, the positions
00:39:30of the opposition party "Alternative for Germany" are very strong.
00:39:34And on the eve of the elections to the state parliament,
00:39:37Saxony-Anhalt, that party, the AfD,
00:39:40is leading in the polls, already gaining
00:39:4343%. That is, it's one step away from
00:39:47simply gaining an absolute majority in parliament. The fact
00:39:50is that in Germany, there's a rule that if parties don't reach
00:39:545%, they don't get into parliament. And now there are a number of parties,
00:39:57including, for example, the Social Democrats, who are
00:40:01part of the ruling coalition, they are also hovering around
00:40:045%, as are the Greens, as is
00:40:08Sahra Wagenknecht's party. And if
00:40:11these small parties,
00:40:15in the Saxony-Anhalt region, don't get into parliament, then
00:40:18the Alternative for Germany party gets more than
00:40:2150% and forms a government
00:40:24without coalition members. Björn
00:40:28Höcke unexpectedly proposed that Sahra Wagenknecht
00:40:31lead the Thuringian government. What's behind this?
00:40:34Why, in your opinion, did she refuse? In fact,
00:40:38it was a tactical proposal. The fact
00:40:41is that at one time Sahra Wagenknecht, when her party
00:40:44was formed, received a huge vote of confidence among
00:40:48voters. Many voted for her, for her party,
00:40:51but in Thuringia itself, when the last elections were held.
00:40:55a huge number of voters from that
00:41:27party and now.
