00:00:12Hello, dear friends and comrades, your favorite program
00:00:15"60 Minutes" is live, and we are starting with urgent
00:00:18news. Trump is convinced that Moscow and Kyiv are close
00:00:22to being ready to sign a peace deal. The American president shared
00:00:26his predictions with the Financial Times. Ukrainian
00:00:29negotiators do not share his optimism. Zelensky
00:00:32continues to anger Donald Trump, announcing that after
00:00:35the Democrats' victory in the midterm elections, the flow
00:00:39of American weapons for the Ukrainian Armed Forces will resume,
00:00:42everything will be as it was under Joe Biden. He makes it clear that
00:00:45due to the policies of the current American administration, the role
00:00:49of the United States on the global arena has already diminished and may
00:00:52become even smaller. From Berlin,
00:00:55the Kyiv leader flies to Madrid, continuing to beg
00:00:58Europeans for money. Missile for Patriot air defense system.
00:01:01From Spain, he is already calling Trump's emissaries
00:01:05Witkoff and Kushner. Today they will discuss with
00:01:08Europeans and Ukrainians in Brussels future security
00:01:11guarantees, and not just for Kyiv. The American
00:01:15president's son-in-law announced that Washington's goal is to create
00:01:18a comprehensive security architecture that will forever
00:01:21eliminate the risk of war resuming,
00:01:25meaning the White House shares the Kremlin's position.
00:01:28A truce is not what is needed.
00:02:38He is protected from missiles, drones, and bullets. Inspecting the fortified bunker,
00:02:41Trump stated that the complex was designed to ensure
00:02:45absolute security during visits by Putin and
00:02:48Xi Jinping.
00:02:51This is constructively the most powerful building ever
00:02:54built. It was designed to ensure the president's
00:02:58security.
00:03:01If he hosts the president of China or Russia, or anyone
00:03:05else, when they dine with two or two and a half thousand
00:03:08guests, they are completely safe, it is absolutely
00:03:11invulnerable. In the Old World, they cling to any illusions. The head
00:03:15of European diplomacy hopes that the renewed Congress
00:03:19will force the White House to intensify pressure on
00:03:21Moscow.
00:03:24American voters unequivocally stated their choice. I
00:03:27very much hope that the new composition of Congress.
00:04:00As for Ukraine, I am rather optimistic in the sense that
00:04:04now in Congress a more active dialogue will resume between both
00:04:08parties about what can be done jointly to support Ukraine. During
00:04:11the election campaign, the parties restrained themselves for a certain time.
00:04:15I know that in both chambers, in both parties, there are staunch supporters
00:04:19of Ukraine who absolutely clearly realize: this Russian
00:04:22aggressive war threatens the security and freedom not only
00:04:25of Europe, but of the United States of America itself. Therefore, I am sure that
00:04:29we still.
00:04:34Trump's team, meanwhile, has moved to direct pressure on Kyiv. Special envoy Steve
00:04:38Witkoff and American president's son-in-law Jared Kushner held
00:04:41one-and-a-half-hour negotiations with Zelensky. Kyiv is again asking for
00:04:45missiles for the Patriot air defense system. Washington, meanwhile, declares the
00:04:48necessity of achieving not a respite, but an end
00:04:52to the war once and for all. By
00:04:54direct order of President Trump, we are working diligently with all parties
00:04:58to find a path to lasting.
00:05:42modest, we saw who the Russians named as the head of their delegation,
00:05:46Medinsky, this is far from a key figure in the Russian system, and he
00:05:50was already sent to negotiations then, when Putin was not actually
00:05:53interested in an agreement. From Moscow, statements are heard that Zelensky
00:05:57must either go to Moscow himself or call Putin, so
00:06:01expectations are extremely low. There is a clear feeling that all this
00:06:04is being pushed exclusively by Americans, and Donald Trump
00:06:07may simply lose interest in this immediately after
00:06:10the midterm elections.
00:06:13Does this mean that Donald Trump will become an absolute lame
00:06:16duck? No, not at all. First of all, in foreign
00:06:20policy he will continue to rule bypassing Congress, or at least
00:06:23will try to do so. Democrats in Congress will, of course, try
00:06:27to block everything that can be blocked, set guidelines
00:06:31and frameworks for the president to somehow rein
00:06:33him in. The publication Politico writes to sober
00:06:37Kyiv. Diplomats state that the attempt to celebrate victory for
00:06:40Ukraine is poisonous.
00:07:42will turn out, on the contrary, Zelensky yesterday spoke of the US very
00:07:45gloomily, he directly said, Americans are trying to throw Ukraine under
00:07:49the bus, and are trying at all costs to do business with the Russians, when
00:07:52Trump now sees the catastrophic election results, understands that
00:07:56his time is limited, only 2 years left, he
00:07:59might try to earn even faster some fantastic
00:08:03billions with Putin and pressure Ukraine, this is
00:08:06a diplomatic theater that serves only one purpose: to get
00:08:10Ukraine out of the way to deal with Putin.
00:09:12in your opinion, how will these elections affect
00:09:14Ukraine?
00:09:17Any elections and changes in the United States, let's be honest, the United
00:09:20States is the biggest, strongest country in the world. That is why
00:09:24elections and changes in the US always have an impact on any continent, on
00:09:28every continent, that is why this will have an impact on
00:09:31Ukraine.
00:09:34The New York Times writes: Trump views the Ukrainian conflict
00:09:37solely as an annoying obstacle to large-scale agreements
00:09:41with Moscow.
00:10:25a new aspect has emerged. The game is not just about
00:10:28bringing Russia out of isolation and striking lucrative energy
00:10:32deals, but about telling Ukraine: "You will get your
00:10:35share." It seems that Trump and his business-oriented
00:10:39envoys are trying to restore the channel for oil and
00:10:42gas supplies from Russia to Europe via Ukraine, erasing all measures
00:10:46of recent years to get rid of Russia's dominance, but this
00:10:49will leave Ukraine just as dependent as before, and this
00:10:53is a truly unpleasant new aspect.
00:10:56At the same time, Trump's haste is also explained by the political fiasco within
00:10:59the country. For the past months, the president has been trying to bring down
00:11:03record fuel prices, promising voters cheap diesel through
00:11:07agreements with Putin. Gas prices did not fall,
00:11:10the promise to end the Ukrainian conflict in 24 hours
00:11:13turned out to be a fiction, and disappointed Americans punished
00:11:17the White House in the elections.
00:11:20Will we see Trump punished by voters? Two years ago he
00:11:23promised that life would get better.
00:11:55This time, such a trick did not work. What he promised about
00:11:58Ukraine did not come true. Do not forget his constant
00:12:01words: "I will end the war in 24 hours." All his pressure
00:12:05on Zelensky ultimately led to absolutely nothing. And
00:12:08Americans feel this perfectly well. In
00:12:11the European political class, Trump's course is welcomed. In
00:12:15the Bundestag, they say that it is the master of the White House
00:12:18who remains the only Western player who is ready to force the parties to
00:12:22the negotiation process.
00:12:55European taxpayers are paying
00:12:57for it.
00:13:00Remember, those false rumors were spreading about us having a shortage
00:13:03of ammunition. That was true, we were short on some things, but low
00:13:07stock is too strong a statement. Our stocks were dwindling,
00:13:10yes, because we gave so much to Ukraine under Biden. We
00:13:14transferred $350 billion worth of equipment to them and didn't ask them for
00:13:18money. You know, I'm giving them weapons now, but through the European
00:13:21Union, and they're paying us 100% for it.
00:13:25At the same time, even if Democrats try to push new
00:13:29credit lines for Ukraine through Congress, the financial flow is still controlled by
00:13:32the presidential administration. Trump does not plan
00:13:36to change foreign policy for Kyiv. Americans
00:13:39believe that Europeans are capable of solving their own problems. Of course,
00:13:43certain accents will be placed, perhaps they will want
00:13:47to allocate more support to Ukraine, because it is Congress
00:13:50that holds the financial tap and similar things, but Democrats also
00:13:54want the war in Iran to end faster, while Trump
00:13:57has an incredible amount of power in foreign policy, so I don't think
00:14:01Europeans should hope for any radical changes.
00:14:05In historical perspective, the current elections were a tectonic shift.
00:14:09British analyst Michael Clarke on Sky News compares them to
00:14:12the crushing defeat of Democrats in 1966
00:14:16during the Vietnam War. In the House of
00:14:18Representatives, they lost 47 seats at once. In
00:14:22the Senate, the party lost three seats. I thought
00:14:26last night marked exactly 60 years since foreign
00:14:29policy played a decisive role in the midterm elections,
00:14:33exactly 60 years ago, the elections of 1966,
00:14:36and then everything revolved around the Vietnam War. It wasn't about
00:14:40the economy, but about middle-class children being drafted into
00:14:43Vietnam. This was extremely unpopular, the triumph of Democrats
00:14:47in '64 suddenly turned into their
00:14:50complete collapse in the midterm elections in '66. This
00:14:53was the last time when...
00:15:06Britain and the rest of Western Europe must prepare for an unstable and
00:15:09unpredictable geopolitical situation. Donald Trump will become
00:15:12uncontrollable, he has broken free from his chains, he has nothing to lose,
00:15:16he is not running for re-election, he wants to make a deal with Putin, he
00:15:19wants to get rid of Ukraine, he wants to resolve the war in Ukraine
00:15:23primarily by its.
00:15:32He is ready to derail Ukraine for this, he is
00:15:36running out of time. The West's previous line has failed.
00:15:39Bundestag deputy Röttgen says that Trump has broken
00:15:43the isolation strategy and single-handedly returns
00:15:46Moscow to the forefront of international diplomacy.
00:15:50It is not so much Russian policy that is striking, as American. The US
00:15:53President Trump decides, without any consultations with anyone, to abandon our
00:15:57previous line, which stated: "If you wage war, you are no longer
00:16:01part of the international
00:16:02community."
00:17:00business deals for the United States, which will be personally managed by Donald
00:17:04Trump. There is a reason why Putin sent Florida
00:17:08as the chief negotiator, the head
00:17:10of the Russian sovereign wealth fund. He
00:17:14knows perfectly well that the best way to make Trump surrender Ukraine
00:17:17is to make the deal financially beneficial personally for Donald
00:17:21Trump. The issue of aid to Ukraine is
00:17:25primarily in Trump's hands, so, for example, even if a Democratic
00:17:28Congress can approve new packages, they can be stalled
00:17:32due to actions by the White House, due to the positions of the State Department
00:17:35or the War Department. The situation will become even more difficult, because
00:17:39we are entering the territory of co-existence of warring branches
00:17:42of government, which creates an additional burden of costs and loss
00:17:46of time. None of the current scenarios look
00:17:49promising for Ukraine, because each of them leads only to
00:17:53additional loss of time. If Democrats win Congress this
00:17:56year, their main priorities will be impeachment, subpoenas,
00:18:00attempts to hold Donald Trump and his
00:18:03administration accountable for all their actions. We
00:18:06will see that...
00:18:15The British press states that the only thing left for the Democratic Party now is to try
00:18:18to legislatively cement sanctions against Moscow, so that
00:18:21Trump cannot lift them by unilateral decree. In The
00:18:25Guardian, the former head of the human rights organization Human Rights Watch,
00:18:29Kenneth Roth, calls on congressmen to curtail
00:18:31the foreign policy freedom of the American
00:18:34president.
00:18:37must be at the negotiating table, because there are things only
00:18:40she can do, like unfreeze Russian assets or lift
00:18:44European sanctions. However, until we create strategic
00:18:47dilemmas and problems for the Russians that only we can resolve,
00:18:51we will not be admitted to this table on equal terms. We must admit directly,
00:18:55neither the Russians nor the Americans want to see Europeans at this
00:18:58table. Democrats have already announced that
00:19:02they will create investigative committees, including concerning this strange
00:19:06shutdown or... the disruption of Starlink connections in Ukraine by Elon
00:19:10Musk, however, things could get even worse if in the next
00:19:142 years Trump cannot advance his domestic agenda due to the Democrats'
00:19:17blockade, he will focus on the only area where the president
00:19:21has broad autonomy: foreign policy, and this is certainly not
00:19:25in Europe's interest. A scenario arises in which he may force
00:19:28Ukrainians to concede and give the Russians everything they want,
00:19:32impose a dictated peace on them, despite resistance from Democrats in
00:19:36Congress, this was
00:20:08of the night, we sincerely hope that he
00:20:11will continue his peacekeeping efforts, there are
00:20:15developments,
00:20:17soon there will be another round of trilateral
00:20:21negotiations,
00:20:24successful peacekeeping efforts, humanitarian,
00:20:28Melania Trump, we hope that all of this
00:20:31will continue. Congress will not interfere.
00:20:35Yes, this is an internal American matter.
00:20:38Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov stressed: Russia's
00:20:41course does not depend on political fluctuations in other countries, and
00:20:45Kremlin press secretary Peskov stated that they hope for continued
00:20:49peacekeeping.
00:22:36Details of the new corruption
00:22:38scandal. Watch our
00:22:40report.
00:22:42Contracted torture, kidnapping, extortion of millions of dollars in
00:22:46basements and other violent crimes.
00:23:20responsible for negotiations with law enforcement, a certain
00:23:23Mexican drug dealer Yegor Burkin, and the founder of the criminal
00:23:27cartel Khimprom. Russian citizenship, fled to Ukraine in
00:23:312016 after being declared wanted.
00:23:34Accomplices, Boxer and Pasha. The defendants
00:23:38used connections in law enforcement agencies, in particular they received
00:23:42information from databases, access to cameras, safe locations and
00:23:45search materials. One of the examples of such situations: three
00:23:49attackers in masks and tactical clothing, after
00:23:52waiting for the victim to leave the sports club, attacked her.
00:23:55Two of them deprived her of the ability to resist,
00:23:59holding her by the neck and leg, the third struck her with a metal
00:24:02pipe. They were covered by a certain
00:24:05consultant, a police officer and another person involved in the case, so that
00:24:09no questions at all remained, a certain Akim,
00:24:12Major General of the SBU, acted. In total, the group had 12
00:24:16people.
00:24:26In masks, beaten, they attacked people right on the street, all this
00:24:30was caught on surveillance cameras, but no punishment
00:24:33followed.
00:24:36Criminals repeatedly receive photos of victims' cars from surveillance cameras
00:24:40of the "Safe City" system. Access to the system was carried out from the account
00:24:44of an employee of the Department for the Protection of National Statehood
00:24:47of the SBU. SBU. In mode. covered everyone, hands were untied
00:24:52so much that
00:25:04Ukrainian showdowns reached European level, torture
00:25:08and beatings were also abroad, including in
00:25:11Vienna, suppression was well
00:25:13paid for,
00:25:16for the period from October 15, 2025 to 25.
00:25:28Another participant, Price, head of the Department of
00:25:31Strategic Investigations of the Police, Vladimir Tsenov, has
00:25:34already been detained by NABU, responsible for covering call centers, another
00:25:38crime of the group.
00:25:41Intriguing details of NABU's Corfagen operation have emerged. According to
00:25:44the investigation, the activities of fraudulent call centers were covered by
00:25:48active high-ranking officials for bribes.
00:26:32the protection was estimated at $7 million per month. Money
00:26:36was laundered through jewelry and real estate, and the scheme was covered by
00:26:39the director of the cyber department, Sergey Krapiva. In the case, he
00:26:43was listed as a chancellor. In the recordings published by NABU,
00:26:46he often mentioned his boss Ruslan Kravchenko,
00:26:49ex-Prosecutor General of Ukraine. He fled the country on the night of
00:26:52September 14th through the Polish border. Now he is sitting in the same
00:26:56Vienna where the work of this organized crime group is recorded. Those who
00:26:59remained in Ukraine were ready for the search.
00:27:32the search began, SBU officers were called to the scene
00:27:36of the incident, it is unclear why, like some private
00:27:39security firm that protects the interests of its owner.
00:27:43These people were the head of the main department of internal security
00:27:47of the SBU, Anton Kravchuk, and the first deputy head of the department for
00:27:50the protection of national statehood, Sergey
00:27:53Duka. In Carthage, the total amount of their bribes exceeded
00:27:56a billion hryvnias. The head of the SBU Poklad tried to
00:27:59whiten the reputation. The Security Service expects
00:28:03a transparent, objective, impartial investigation.
00:28:07This was discussed, in particular, with the heads of NABU and SAP. There is clear
00:28:10and constructive cooperation. In addition, I have contacts with our
00:28:14colleagues from the special services of partner countries. We are doing everything necessary to ensure that
00:28:17the investigation of these crimes takes place in other jurisdictions. As for the so-called
00:28:21Mexican, involved in the case, I suggest
00:28:24he arrive in Ukraine and surrender to law enforcement agencies. Or we
00:28:28will find him ourselves, wherever he may be hiding. We have experience, the SBU is working.
00:28:32And will work only for Ukraine, but it will be difficult to justify itself after such
00:28:35a corruption scheme. The organized crime group also
00:28:39produced counterfeit euros in an underground workshop.
00:28:42Here it is written for me, here it was written
00:28:45plus or minus then 19700.
00:28:49I talked about this situation, here
00:28:52are the amounts, well our,
00:28:55brother, the car is ready, three stacks, need to issue 23,000
00:28:59euros in Berlin, among them one.
00:29:06And even this is not the end, the next episode is drug trafficking through
00:29:09U-420 stores, a well-known chain in Ukraine that sells
00:29:13souvenirs and tea. To supposedly legalize the sale, the Mexican
00:29:16criminal discusses bribing new individuals. So you better think
00:29:20how to make sure that different people, either ministers
00:29:24of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, or ministers of health, do not put a spoke in our
00:29:27wheels
00:29:30with prohibitions.
00:29:32I'll tell you straight, what's wrong, that is, we are ready to give Comrade
00:29:36K 5 o'clock. Comrade K, most likely, Minister
00:29:39of Internal Affairs Igor Klymenko, judging by the conversation, agreed to
00:29:43cooperate, but for a share of half of their business
00:29:46turnover. The participants in the conversation proposed a new sales scheme, where
00:29:50the recipe for substances changes more often than they are
00:29:53banned. They expected to get three thousand a
00:29:56day for this, and by summer already five thousand. They
00:30:00were looking for ways to secure their business. Parliament and
00:30:03relevant bills, one of the options they considered
00:30:06was the development and adoption of bills that would
00:30:09fully legalize marijuana in Ukraine, and
00:30:13they owe me to set up a meeting to
00:30:16discuss this legalization. This
00:30:19was probably to be resolved by the head of the Servant of the People faction, David Arakhamia, who was also
00:30:23supposed to ensure the legalization of marijuana in Ukraine.
00:30:26They planned to negotiate with Health Minister Lyashko
00:30:30to shift the focus of attention.
00:31:02but the searches went smoothly, personnel in the stores were warned,
00:31:06not all goods were seized. The Mexican promised to deal with
00:31:10one of the heads of the National Police department. Immediately
00:31:13consider the offer. 2 million dollars to remove,
00:31:17throw out this, how they removed him from the staff,
00:31:20and while he is not in office, brother, we
00:31:24will clearly understand everything there,
00:31:27by tomorrow, if they don't give an answer, we
00:31:30will then talk to the general, find out what
00:31:34materials are there, what they are preparing. The Mexican felt
00:31:37untouchable by law enforcement, the criminal
00:31:41immune with powerful cover from the SBU.
00:31:44The criminal asks Akim to introduce him to the new head of the department
00:31:48of strategic investigations of the National Police
00:31:50of Ukraine. Brother, if possible, with Artem, set up
00:31:54with the new DSR. Will do.
00:31:58Akim also informs the criminals about new appointments of SBU employees to
00:32:01administrative positions. Your Kent is appointed to Dnipro.
00:32:05To the CE.
00:32:07Yes. Jerk. Hey,
00:32:11bro. Yes, I vouched for you. What's
00:32:14up? Bro, are you putting the cops in their place?
00:32:17Yes, so, Vanya,
00:32:21you're a seasoned wolf. The leaders of
00:32:24the organized crime group calmly met with the heads of the Ministry of Internal Affairs
00:32:27and the National Police, in their correspondence they called them mice and
00:32:30emphasized that they should know their
00:32:33place.
00:32:40That's what a mafia is. Complete fusion of state administrative
00:32:43structures with criminal groups,
00:32:45officials, vice-prime ministers, ministers, heads
00:32:55with the participation of high-ranking
00:32:59of the Security Service of Ukraine, the National Police, imagine
00:33:03the scale of the disaster.
00:33:07Pillar of flame, sky covered in black smoke, ablaze, the globally
00:33:10renowned Azov torture chamber, Borshchahivka
00:33:14near Kyiv. After the Geran hit, warehouses and
00:33:17the Epicenter hypermarket are burning. Eyewitnesses report sounds of repeated
00:33:21detonation. Ammunition is exploding. The Russian Army
00:33:24continues to knock out rear infrastructure. The Ministry of Defense reports the
00:33:28destruction of the Nova Poshta logistics terminal in the Kharkiv region, another dry cargo ship
00:33:31in the vicinity of Odesa,
00:33:34and a power substation in the Dnipropetrovsk region. The energy
00:33:38collapse in Ukraine is now entering a new
00:33:40phase. The Ministry of Energy reported that energy production
00:33:44due to Russian strikes has already forced nuclear power plants to reduce
00:33:47output. In Kyiv, the generation of all
00:33:50absolutely all thermal power plants has been destroyed. At best,
00:33:54it will be possible to restore 10-15%
00:33:57of capacity, and even this will require lengthy
00:34:00work. After a massive strike on the energy complex in
00:34:03Kyiv and the region, emergency power outages continue.
00:34:06There is no electricity in the region for an average of
00:34:1015 hours a day. Outraged people took to
00:34:14the streets and blocked roads. Experts
00:34:16warn that when the frosts hit, there will be no
00:34:20electricity for entire days. In Kyiv, emergency
00:34:23heating points are being opened. A communal apocalypse
00:34:26is compounded by a transport collapse. Near the South Bridge, traffic jams
00:34:30stretch for several kilometers. Buses
00:34:33are packed to capacity. At bus stops, there are giant
00:34:36queues. Don't expect the situation to improve either,
00:34:40said a representative of Ukrainian intelligence. Before
00:34:43winter, Russia, according to Ukrainian information,
00:34:47has accumulated up to 700 ballistic and several
00:34:50thousand cruise missiles, which means the strikes will not
00:34:53stop.
00:34:54Look,
00:35:02move it to the left, there are cars there.
00:35:45destroyed by Russian thermal power plants. The company published photos on its official
00:35:48social media page. The pictures show thermal power plants damaged by enemy
00:35:52strikes. On November 3, three thermal power plants at once ceased
00:35:56their operation due to massive destruction as a result of Russian
00:35:59attacks. The companies explained that the enemy constantly attacks Ukraine's
00:36:03energy system. In some regions of Ukraine, electricity
00:36:07supply restrictions are applied, Ukrenergo reports. These are forced
00:36:11measures resorted to due to damage to the energy system by Russians.
00:38:27What has significantly changed is that now water supply is suffering and heat
00:38:31supply is under threat.
00:38:38all generation capacities located in Kyiv have been destroyed. Kyiv had
00:38:41quite significant capacities? What should we prepare for
00:38:45in winter? Look, I objectively think that during
00:38:49emergency shutdowns we may have situations when indeed for
00:38:5316 to 20 hours without
00:38:55electricity. will not be for hours,
00:38:58but days, the reality is that now we
00:39:02are literally hanging by a thread after we destroyed thermal
00:39:05generation, and after we destroyed, in addition to thermal generation,
00:39:09the power transmission system,
00:39:12but there's also a third problem, today they hit
00:39:16substations that are responsible for supplying electricity from the Khmelnytsky NPP, so it may
00:39:19turn out that the Khmelnytsky NPP will not be able
00:39:23to supply electricity, well then...
00:40:58According to him, Moscow is effectively using political
00:41:01destabilization in Poland, undermining the authority of the Polish
00:41:04government and generally preparing an attack on Poland as early as the first
00:41:08half of November, that is, they are preparing right
00:41:11now. The fact that Poland has truly turned into
00:41:14one big Shepeto circus is openly spoken about
00:41:17in Europe. Irish economist Pilkington,
00:41:21commenting on Tusk's rather strange rhetoric, compared the Polish
00:41:24government to a paranoid bunker
00:41:27filled with hysterical psychopaths, this is a direct
00:41:31quote, and suggested sending the prime minister for compulsory
00:41:35treatment.
00:41:37The most serious justification.
00:42:55constitutional body of the Republic
00:42:56of Poland. I think anyone who objectively
00:43:00assesses what is happening has absolutely no doubt that we
00:43:04are facing exactly such
00:43:05ситуацией.
00:43:09Presidential powers.
00:43:19I warn the gentlemen from the presidential chancellery, if they try to forcefully enter the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, we will not
00:43:23allow them to. The President of Poland is not the Sun
00:43:24King.
00:43:27He has powers strictly defined by the constitution.
00:46:40Now they are showing Americans photos from Warsaw and
00:46:43asking: so what do you think, is this a stable
00:46:46to move your base there from
00:46:49Germany? Whatever Donald Tusk's goals may be.
00:46:55Donald Tusk is the end product of an entire school of political
00:46:58nonsense that has dominated us for the last 35
00:47:02years. Well, right now we are moving to
00:47:06the United States of America, our special correspondent,
00:47:09Ekaterina Mur, is on direct call. Katya, hello, today at
00:47:12the White House, in anticipation of the meeting that
00:47:16will take place next week in Abu
00:47:19the wife of an American.
00:47:53why exactly now many analysts
00:47:56are paying attention to the fact that, as you rightly pointed
00:47:59out, this kind of precedes
00:48:03negotiations of a different order, yes, a military
00:48:06order, many analysts
00:48:10believe that this is related on
00:48:13the one hand to the fact that such soft
00:48:16power of the United States is being activated, previous deals
00:48:20that were reached with... with the participation of Melania
00:48:23positive reaction in
00:48:27the American media, on the other hand, they are also evaluated very
00:48:30positively, and thus the parties are trying
00:48:34to bring to a common denominator. In
00:48:36conflictology, this is exactly when the parties
00:48:40are very far from any agreement, they are offered
00:48:44what they are actually close on, and this is exactly
00:48:47the humanitarian track, so on the one hand,
00:48:50of course, it's positive.
00:48:52such a signal from the first lady, but on the other hand, in Washington
00:48:56in the State Department undoubtedly
00:48:59place very high hopes precisely on this
00:49:02track, I repeat, in order to bring the parties, which
00:49:05are actually quite far from an agreement, to a common
00:49:09denominator, at least in something. Katya, another important question, the Financial Times
00:49:13reports that the famous diesel deal of the American president, the deal with
00:49:17Russia after the defeat in the midterm elections, is under
00:49:20threat. It became known today
00:49:22that two of the three tankers turned around, what do we know about
00:49:26this?
00:49:28Indeed, the Financial Times reports this,
00:49:32and it's primarily about the fact that
00:49:36traders, ports, well, in principle, all American
00:49:39port infrastructure is very afraid that
00:49:43after such a second-day effect, this is what they are afraid of,
00:49:47that ex post facto Congress may cancel
00:49:50the decree of the American president. And
00:49:53there is a certain legal conflict, if this
00:49:56happens, then sanctions may
00:50:00hit them, that is, they may be accused of
00:50:03not complying with the sanctions regime, because
00:50:07the sanctions themselves were adopted at the level
00:50:10of the American Congress, and
00:50:12the president either has or does not have
00:50:15authority, so far lawyers in America cannot
00:50:19clearly define this, but certainly,
00:50:23what is now in the American Senate, after
00:50:26the new Congress comes into
00:50:29force, now it will be very
00:50:32difficult to prove, against Donald Trump
00:50:35certain cases will be
00:50:38opened, they will be heard, among others, in Congress, and of course,
00:50:42operators are afraid that these hearings will hit them by
00:50:46ricochet, they are trying to
00:50:49somehow understand what to do with this deal. Thank you.
00:51:22there simple guys fought,
00:51:25open Russophobes fought, open
00:51:28faggots with closed Russophobes with closed
00:51:32faggots. Well, as they say, elections,
00:51:34elections, democrats, not very good
00:51:38people. I will explain.
00:51:41Of course, closed ones are better for us, because
00:51:44we can at least discuss something with them, with these, nothing can be discussed.
00:51:47They say, go and
00:51:50die.
00:52:35that's the problem, and he himself admits it, that
00:52:39we lost this because of the war with Iran, we need to go all
00:52:42the way, but the thing is, they,
00:52:46take the Democrats, or rather take the Americans, for example,
00:52:49and Europe, in relation to Ukraine, well, their goals are
00:52:53the same, they just look at them
00:52:56differently,
00:52:58the United States is doing everything to finish this now,
00:53:02let's sign something like Minsk today. It's
00:53:05not a fact that we will comply with it, why do we need it, well, it didn't
00:53:09work out here, to wrap fish here, and so on, they are high-class
00:53:13specialists, well, let's finish, this is important
00:53:16for them, because the costs that
00:53:20they, they exceed the profit received, they
00:53:23understand that it will only get worse, and the Europeans
00:53:27say, no, let's fight, fight
00:53:31to the end, let Ukraine be, it's not
00:53:34sovereign. Will any piece of it remain, we
00:53:37will still leave it independent, and like Estonia, but it will be
00:53:41even more Russophobic, that's their
00:53:43only position, but that is a springboard for
00:53:47further problems for an attack, let's say, on the Russian
00:53:51Federation, that both of these are one and the same, no
00:53:54difference, you understand, right now, of course, I
00:53:58perfectly understand that we
00:54:01have
00:54:03protests going on there... some in Ukraine, yes, about these
00:54:07prisons there, there about power outages
00:54:10but the question there is that this
00:54:14busification, it's, you could say,
00:54:17500,000 people in total, imagine, 500,000
00:54:20deserters, that is, all of them, those who are busified, they all
00:54:23run away, who is fighting, well, they
00:54:27are fighting and really somewhere there,
00:54:30let's say, holding us back, and somewhere counterattacking
00:54:33even, and how... who are these people, it's interesting to know,
00:54:37you understand, I have such a suspicion that this
00:54:40coalition of those willing is already supplying a certain
00:54:44number of people who are fighting there and whom we
00:54:47surround, they don't surrender, because if they surrender, they will go
00:54:51through Moscow here on foot, these are NATO members in pure
00:54:55form, we need to continue only one thing, what
00:54:58is happening, strikes on energy and further
00:55:02coercion to surrender, we'll be back in a minute.
01:00:3921:30,
01:00:44new details of Azov's torture in...
01:01:17Simply because of dissatisfaction with mobilization, allegedly
01:01:20unconfirmed rumors in social networks, tortures,
01:01:23footage of beaten, crippled prisoners,
01:01:27Bennett seems to ignore it. But he emphasizes
01:01:30that the paramedic who came to rescue the hostages
01:01:33was dressed up. This was also stated
01:01:35by the head of Zelensky's office, terrorist Budanov.
01:01:39The girl herself, Valentina Molodaya, has already been sent to
01:01:42prison. By court decision, she will spend 2 months in pre-trial detention
01:01:46without the right to bail. Allegedly, the woman provoked riots for
01:01:50money, for Kremlin money. Valentina
01:01:52Molodaya herself denies the accusation, she stated in court that she is
01:01:56a real practicing doctor, owns
01:01:59a clinic, just wanted to help people. She faces up to 8 years
01:02:02in prison on trumped-up charges. Another
01:02:06woman has also been taken into custody,
01:02:09allegedly an accomplice of Molodaya. Tatyana
01:02:12Kireeva came to the torture chamber to secure the release of a familiar
01:02:16hostage. Whom the Banderites beat, now she
01:02:20is accused of obstructing the activities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine,
01:02:23disclosing information about the location of military
01:02:26facilities, and organizing mass riots. Not
01:02:30a single executioner from Azov has been arrested yet and
01:02:34they are not going to punish them, but they added to the scandalous website
01:02:37Myrotvorets a fourteen-year-old
01:02:40teenager who was beaten by neo-Nazis. He is accused
01:02:44of undermining Ukraine's
01:02:45defense capability,
01:02:49providing information on the internet about a military facility, don't you think this is
01:02:52resonant? Do you think this is a military facility, were
01:02:56you there?
01:03:30What does this mean? So many of these buildings? In what
01:03:33sense? Such large buildings, what are they?
01:03:37Torture chambers below, and above sit foreign gentlemen who
01:03:40manage all this? Or how to define this for me as a civilian
01:03:44person?
01:03:47According to the investigation, the events in Petropavlovskaya Borshchagovka could
01:03:50have been a pre-planned provocation in order to help individual soldiers
01:03:54leave their duty station.
01:03:58Moloda herself...
01:05:00turned out to be the official temporary deployment point for Azov, mobilized
01:05:03people were there before being sent to training centers, as well as
01:05:06servicemen who had previously voluntarily left the unit
01:05:09and were awaiting legal
01:05:10distribution.
01:05:16The military remained in the house because there was their own medical center, this is how the head of
01:05:20the National Guard Alexander Pivnenko explains it, commenting on the conflict near
01:05:23Kyiv, according to him, if the servicemen had a need for
01:05:27better medical care, they would have...
01:06:00with friends and climbed onto the fence of the house, according to him, people in black uniform and
01:06:03balaclavas threw him down from there, dragged him into the territory and started
01:06:07beating him, besides the teenager, his parents were also added to the database, they
01:06:10are accused of failing to fulfill parental duties, this
01:06:14is that boy, this is me, that guy who the TCC took home,
01:06:18I'm lying in the
01:06:21trauma center now, well,
01:06:25they cut my fingers,
01:06:28I just already.
01:07:06Fear united Europe, nationalism can split it, this is
01:07:09how The Economist magazine titled another propaganda piece aimed against
01:07:13the rising right-wing forces. The publication
01:07:16is frightened by the elections in Spain, France, Poland, Italy, which
01:07:19will take place in the next 12 months. In the Fifth
01:07:23Republic, the clear favorite of the presidential
01:07:26campaign is advocating for the normalization of relations with Russia.
01:07:31In Italy, Roberto Vannacci, a retired
01:07:34general, former military attaché in Moscow, who speaks complimentarily and
01:07:38respectfully of Putin, is gaining strength. In Germany, the most
01:07:41popular anti-war party is Alternative for Germany.
01:07:45Even in pro-European Spain, Eurosceptics from the Vox
01:07:48party may enter the government. All this could
01:07:52lead to the collapse of a united Europe, the European Union, into
01:07:55two blocs. The Mediterranean will do business with Russia, buy
01:07:59Russian energy resources, and the North-Eastern bloc.
01:08:02The Balts, Poles, Finns, Scandinavians, and the British who
01:08:06joined them, having left the European Union, will continue
01:08:09to arm Kyiv and provoke a global conflict. Well, while
01:08:13European experts discuss geopolitics, their countries are literally
01:08:16torn apart by mass protests. In France today there is another
01:08:20nationwide strike. According to special services, up to
01:08:24800,000 people may take to the streets. The action was called
01:08:27"Rainbow Thursday," but the action brings nothing rainbow to the
01:08:31French. Cities will again be engulfed in a wave of riots,
01:08:34looting. The US Embassy even recommended Americans to stay
01:08:38away, and Trump said that Europe, which turned its borders into a
01:08:42backyard, is going through terrible times
01:08:45and is dying before our eyes. Details
01:08:49in the report.
01:09:10Shoulder to shoulder against police batons.
01:10:20I can film, don't push me with a baton, calm down, I'm protecting my students from you, I'm protecting my students from the police.
01:10:23In northern France, in Lille, the blockade of the lycée also ended in
01:10:27clashes with the police, one of the high school students launches firecrackers
01:10:31towards the gendarmes directly from the school
01:10:33grounds.
01:10:37The whole difficulty is that what is happening is already unfolding on the school's own
01:10:41territory, judging by what... we see, according to the information I received after
01:10:44phone conversations with several principals of educational institutions,
01:10:48the protest movement is now penetrating inside schools, in front of us is a young
01:10:52man, whose identity has not yet been established, he opened fire from
01:10:55a pyrotechnic
01:10:56mortar.
01:11:00Demonstrations do not stop, despite bans, students
01:11:03staged processions through the center
01:11:05of Paris.
01:11:15today a nationwide strike, almost 800 thousand people will take to the streets of France,
01:11:18according to special services, only in Paris
01:11:22up to 80 thousand
01:11:24participants are expected. About 250 processions are planned
01:11:28throughout France. Participants intend to protest against
01:11:31the decline in purchasing power. Schoolchildren and
01:11:35representatives of the Yellow
01:11:37Vests movement are joining the movement.
01:12:13The day of manifestation has already been declared a day of increased risk. The authorities
01:12:16fear large-scale riots and new clashes with the police.
01:12:30We have been participating in protests for several weeks. We want to tell workers that
01:12:34the struggle of schoolchildren against the lack of funding is the same struggle
01:12:37as against layoffs, low wages and the rising cost of living. We
01:12:41believe that today.
01:12:55that radical groups will join the protests in the center
01:12:58of Paris, a new outbreak of violence is not ruled out. French
01:13:02Interior Minister Lara Nies said he would mobilize
01:13:0570,000
01:13:06gendarmes.
01:13:11As for the police forces that will be involved, the scheme will be exactly the
01:13:14same as on October 31. When I say exactly the same, I mean
01:13:18first of all the same number of employees. The same number of
01:13:21mobile units will be involved this time.
01:13:56recently, the coordination of demonstration routes has constantly caused
01:14:00disputes, because Emmanuel Macron said that he would like to abandon
01:14:04holding protest actions in city centers, especially in
01:14:07Paris. Trade unions proposed a route from
01:14:11Bastille Square to Concorde Square, but the administrative
01:14:15court rejected this option and approved the route proposed by
01:14:18the police.
01:14:21The US Embassy in Paris publishes a warning for American citizens.
01:14:25It recommends staying away from
01:14:27demonstrations.
01:14:29Protests, demonstrations, and mass actions continue throughout the country.
01:14:32A nationwide strike involving representatives
01:14:35of various industries is planned for Thursday, November 5.
01:14:38Four major railway unions
01:14:42have announced a joint nationwide strike. It is recommended to avoid
01:14:46the demonstration area and any places of mass gatherings
01:14:49of people.
01:14:52The government can no longer cope even with its basic
01:14:55duties, according to the French Le Monde, this is how representatives of Macron's
01:14:59political camp themselves assess the situation. Dissatisfaction
01:15:02is growing among ordinary French people, taxes are rising,
01:15:05expenses are stifling business, enterprises are losing opportunities for
01:15:09development, nothing is left of the promised prosperity.
01:15:12следа.
01:15:21Protests are not for me, although I must admit, I completely agree with.
01:15:58French authorities still cannot extinguish the fire at home, but
01:16:02they are already discussing who benefits from it, in Moscow they are allegedly only
01:16:05waiting for footage from Parisian streets, and the fact that these shots
01:16:09are taken by the French themselves, demonstrating the government's
01:16:12helplessness, is apparently a secondary issue.
01:16:16Riots in France serve Russian propaganda as proof that
01:16:20the West is decaying, all this, of course, perfectly fits into
01:16:24the usual picture of the world created by Russian
01:16:26propaganda. Europe is perishing deservedly. However, this time
01:16:30the discussion about events in France goes far beyond ordinary
01:16:34propaganda. In the West, fears are growing that the European
01:16:37crisis could spread to the other side of the Atlantic. The fact is that
01:16:41France is approaching a debt crisis, and the political
01:16:44system is barely able to agree on
01:16:47unpopular measures. According to CNN, the US has similar
01:16:51problems. Growing debt, expensive borrowing, and a lack of.
01:17:08GDP to the current level, just under 120%. France's primary budget deficit is huge, from the point
01:17:11of view of public finances, the current situation
01:17:15is fundamentally unsustainable. But can
01:17:17a similar situation be repeated on the other side
01:17:20of the Atlantic?
01:17:24Protests
01:18:19now in France, Germany across Europe, the political
01:18:23class has once again proven its complete insolvency, the authorities
01:18:27did nothing to stop what is happening, all this only
01:18:30reflects the weakened, cornered state
01:18:33of Europe and the European Union.
01:18:37Well, we are now moving to London, Alexander
01:18:41Khabarov is on direct call, Alexander, hello, in Brussels there was
01:18:44a meeting, comprehensive and broad, they tried
01:18:47to settle the Ukrainian conflict for the umpteenth
01:18:50time, there were Americans, Ukrainians, and importantly
01:18:54Britons, but the press says that the meeting was a failure, why
01:18:57so, what did they want and what didn't
01:19:00happen?
01:19:04Good afternoon, Olga, but as far as I understand, negotiations will be
01:19:08held today as well, perhaps in a slightly different format at
01:19:11NATO headquarters, but the fact is
01:19:14that the allies, I mean the allies primarily
01:19:18of the North Atlantic Alliance, have
01:19:21rather serious disagreements regarding
01:19:25the general view on the Ukrainian conflict and its
01:19:28further development or resolution. The position
01:19:31of the US is expressed extremely clearly. The United
01:19:35States of America, primarily represented by .
01:20:08at the end of November, November 22, to hold a meeting
01:20:11again in Berlin, the so-called coalition of the willing,
01:20:15the coalition of the willing under the leadership of France and
01:20:18Great Britain in the coming days will begin its
01:20:22maneuvers in Poland, practicing various
01:20:25scenarios for deployment in the future, as they
01:20:28believe, after the resolution of the conflict, of their forces in Ukraine,
01:20:32against which Moscow categorically
01:20:35opposes. Well, and exactly so... there are also
01:20:39financial difficulties. For example, the United States of America,
01:20:42as it became known in recent days, intends to demand
01:20:46partners increase their contributions to
01:20:49the program of supplying priority
01:20:52arms deliveries for Ukraine. The fact is that Americans
01:20:55it turns out have already supplied more weapons than they received
01:20:59in financial compensation for it. They intend to demand about
01:21:022 billion dollars from allies so
01:21:05that they repay these...
01:21:08debts. Therefore, there is a whole complex of issues here. It is important
01:21:11to understand that all this is happening on the eve
01:21:14of negotiations in Abu Dhabi, tripartite with the participation
01:21:17of the US, Russia and Ukraine, and
01:21:21this, of course, essentially these consultations that
01:21:24are currently taking place in Brussels, their main task is
01:21:28to formulate a unified position, to influence Ukraine's
01:21:31position in these negotiations, and Europe
01:21:33is trying to take a seat at the negotiating table, a place for...
01:22:07act as the main sponsors of the Kyiv regime.
01:22:11Another problem is that there is never enough money, and they cannot find
01:22:15it. Zelensky demands more and more. The Europeans simply
01:22:18don't have it. These talks about another 70 billion
01:22:22euros, which Kyiv demands. Kyiv leads Europe into
01:22:26a dead end. The European Union intends to appeal to other
01:22:29countries outside the European Union, in particular to
01:22:32Great Britain, with a demand to increase their contributions
01:22:36into this. the matter of supplying Ukraine. And these countries
01:22:39also don't have money, neither Canada nor Great Britain took any
01:22:42obligations upon themselves, despite their intentions
01:22:46to rapprochement with the European Union, so therefore here on the one
01:22:50hand there is a financial problem, political
01:22:53disagreements with the United
01:22:55States, but there is also no unity within Europe itself, where
01:22:59there are also different forces, there are leaders who
01:23:02advocate for an early cessation of the conflict, a peaceful
01:23:06resolution of this conflict... but their voices are currently drowned out, unfortunately,
01:23:09in the stream of those statements made by
01:23:12representatives of the so-called big European
01:23:16troika, essentially advocating for the continuation of this
01:23:19conflict. Thank you very much, Alexander, Alexander Khabarov,
01:23:23on direct line, Great Britain, London.
01:23:27The defeat of the Republicans in the congressional elections, everyone expected
01:23:30it, although no one assumed that it, the failure
01:23:34would be so resounding. And you know, still, my
01:23:37tongue will not turn to repeat all
01:23:41these narratives about some tectonic
01:23:45shift, about the historic victory
01:23:48of the Democrats. You know, I believe it would be more appropriate and correct
01:23:52to say that it's
01:23:54not that the Democrats won, but that, let's say,
01:23:57President Trump defeated President
01:24:01Trump himself, because exactly 2 years ago, in
01:24:05November 2024, we remember what a
01:24:08triumph President Trump had in the elections, how
01:24:11he built his rating, and then he just
01:24:15squandered it, he showed that, so to
01:24:17speak, he believed in his hypertrophied
01:24:21ego, in his lucky star, and what
01:24:25happened in the end was that when Trump,
01:24:28the 2026 version, defeated Trump
01:24:31from 2024, these mandates,
01:24:34so to speak, fell out of the hands of the Republicans, seats in
01:24:38Congress fell out, and the Democrats just had to pick them up, which
01:24:42they actually did. Now
01:24:45let's move on. Look,
01:24:48if...
01:26:21for Republicans, this is, let's say,
01:26:25a resource they haven't used yet for
01:26:27consolidation, to say, let's not
01:26:31allow this failure in the presidential
01:26:35elections. It seems Kutuzov said, or
01:26:38this phrase is attributed to him, that losing a battle does not
01:26:42mean losing the war. So in
01:26:452028, we will
01:26:49finally sum up and understand
01:26:52if today's
01:26:54defeat yesterday in battle will be the
01:26:58first step towards the defeat of the Republicans in the war or
01:27:01not. Then, again, look, right before our eyes
01:27:05myths are being formed, these
01:27:08post-election myths. Well, the first myth is that
01:27:11now everything will radically change, a golden
01:27:14shower of some kind of financial support
01:27:17will pour into Ukraine, weapons will flow.
01:27:21Well, this is impossible for two reasons. Firstly,
01:27:24because there is a ceiling of possibilities. Well, there is no such
01:27:28magic wand to wave and get more
01:27:31patriots, and the same
01:27:34money. Again, Trump relieved
01:27:38America of the need to pay
01:27:41Ukraine. If now the Democrats
01:27:44try to play Biden 2:0, then the Republicans
01:27:47will say, are you forcing us again?
01:28:20the same Congress, the same President, that is,
01:28:24until January 2027, absolutely
01:28:27nothing has changed. That is, a new countdown will begin only
01:28:31next year, that is... there is still a sufficient window
01:28:34of opportunity. And now,
01:28:37look, a very important question
01:28:40that we ask each other and
01:28:44somewhere in private space, and, so
01:28:48to speak, in the media, what do these elections mean to
01:28:51us? We
01:28:55also do not have a unified point of view, and
01:28:58a fairly widespread opinion, so to speak...
01:29:54about the US elections, I won't talk about it, the only thing I will say is, I think,
01:29:57it's not about a temporary increase in diesel fuel prices, although that also
01:30:01mattered. I think Americans would have forgiven Trump for that, but what they
01:30:05definitely didn't forgive him for, is that
01:30:08the Jewish lobby in the United States of America lobbied its
01:30:11interests and essentially Donald Trump placed Israel's interests above
01:30:14the interests of the United States of America. I think this was his fatal mistake and
01:30:18led him to such a result. Now, regarding
01:30:22Ukraine, you showed a report where a fourteen-year-old boy was put
01:30:26on the "Mirotvorets" website. You know, it seems to me that we will soon
01:30:29be able to hold elections based on the "Mirotvorets" website, because all citizens of Ukraine, including
01:30:33minors, are included there. The only ones who
01:30:37are not there are the mafia leader Zelensky and his accomplices
01:30:40from the General Prosecutor's Office and the Security Service of Ukraine.
01:30:44But I still want to dwell on another topic that you raised
01:30:48here, by the way, it's not the first day it's been circulating on air,
01:30:51regarding the political scandal in Poland, because not all viewers really
01:30:55understand what the big scandal is about, what is the significance of this
01:30:58constitutional tribunal? In fact, this is of enormous significance. Because
01:31:02for me, this story is very close and understandable, because similar events
01:31:06occurred in Ukraine. This is about a constitutional body, the only
01:31:10constitutional body that can interpret constitutional norms
01:31:13and, most importantly, the compliance of any
01:31:16adopted legislative act, in this case
01:31:19in Poland by the Sejm or the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, with
01:31:23the constitution of Ukraine. Therefore, when one of the politicians
01:31:27in the country took a course towards usurping power, the first
01:31:30body that must be attacked is the constitutional court or
01:31:34in this case the constitutional tribunal. Why should this
01:31:37be done? The maximum task is to take control of this constitutional tribunal.
01:31:41The minimum task is to paralyze this constitutional tribunal so
01:31:45that everyone can express their point of view, legitimate
01:31:49or illegitimate. We often argue whether Zelensky is legitimate or not. Who can
01:31:52answer this question? The only body that can answer this question
01:31:56is the constitutional court. And since it is not working, then the law
01:32:00of force works, whoever is stronger is right. So, I
01:32:03remain the president of Ukraine. This is how the process
01:32:07of usurping power happens. Now regarding the second
01:32:10series of Carthage 2, I was waiting for this series, because well, everyone
01:32:14understood that sooner or later it would happen. So,
01:32:18all of Zelensky's usurpation of power rests on three
01:32:21pillars: first, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, second, the security
01:32:25bloc in the form of the General Prosecutor's Office and the Security
01:32:28Service of Ukraine. In the first Carthage, in the first series, we saw an attack
01:32:32on the General Prosecutor's Office. The General Prosecutor fled the country.
01:32:36This is the second series regarding the Security Service
01:32:39of Ukraine. As it turns out, this is not some kind of corruption
01:32:42scandal. It cannot be presented
01:32:45as a corruption scandal. In reality, the
01:32:48fact was revealed that Ukraine
01:32:52is ruled by a mafia, specifically a mafia.
01:32:55This is when, in fact, law enforcement agencies and
01:32:58criminal elements have merged, and it's unclear where the SBU
01:33:29and another important point that few people pay attention to is that they have become so brazen that they started printing, printing in an underground print shop euros
01:33:32with a denomination of 200 euros, you understand? That is, people seriously
01:33:36discuss banknotes that they print for their
01:33:39compliance, no, no, there you need to finalize it, yes, we will now use paints,
01:33:42I have selected 14 shades of colors. We will solve everything now, everything
01:33:46will be tip-top, everything will be, do you even understand what we are talking about, I'm just
01:33:49surprised when Europeans, who support this
01:33:53mafia with their taxes, headed by Zelensky, do they even
01:33:56understand where all this will lead them? They openly
01:34:00print their money, their denominations, these, and what do you think, where will this money
01:34:04go? It will not remain in Ukraine, they will
01:34:07send it there to Europe, just as they were not bothered by the fact that
01:34:11call centers, which this mafia was covering, were hitting just...
01:34:15their taxpayers, their taxpayers in the United States
01:34:18of America, in Europe, is that not enough for you? Well, wait, you will get
01:34:22more frank sensations from Ukraine addressed
01:34:25to you. We'll be back in
01:34:27a minute.
01:39:49inflicted a crushing defeat on Trump that will go down in history. The White
01:39:53House is losing control of both houses of Congress. Trump himself
01:39:56admitted he was a little surprised by the results, but
01:39:59attributed the reason for the defeat to the absence of his personal
01:40:02name on the ballot, stating that he did not consider himself
01:40:05a loser given that people did not vote
01:40:08for him personally. At the same time, the US President still admitted that the
01:40:12war in Iran and rising prices at American gas stations influenced
01:40:15Americans' choice. Opponent of the Middle East
01:40:19adventure, American Vice President JD
01:40:22Vance named precisely the war with Iran as the main reason
01:40:26for the Republicans' defeat, stating that people want
01:40:29a return to the promised America First principle
01:40:32and a review - this is key - of the special and
01:40:36rather strange relations between the US and
01:40:39Israel. CBS correspondent, citing
01:40:42sources, claims that Hexet, the Pentagon chief,
01:40:46could now be made a scapegoat. He waged
01:40:49the war of American
01:40:51generals.
01:40:57You know, I'll most likely find common ground with the Democrats, unless
01:41:01they decide to act destructively. In any case, I
01:41:04have veto power if I don't like what they
01:41:07do.
01:41:12Behind the scenes, a campaign is unfolding, whose goal is to make Defense Secretary
01:41:16Pete Hexet a scapegoat. All the blame for
01:41:18the Republicans' defeat is placed on the unpopularity of the war in
01:41:22Iran. It is noteworthy that Vice President JD Vance
01:41:25links the Republicans' crushing failure to
01:41:34the reason we lost was
01:41:35the war. Next, the Vice President lists the top four
01:41:39voter demands that explain the results: end
01:41:42the war, focus on prices and inflation, put America first
01:41:46and change relations with Israel. What
01:41:50is happening now, and what is truly important, is how before our very
01:41:53eyes the political map of the Senate is being redrawn. Democrats
01:42:14celebrate a confident victory in the midterm elections after gaining control of
01:42:18both houses of Congress. According to NBC News forecasts, in the House
01:42:21of Representatives, Democrats will get about 258 seats.
01:42:25This even exceeds the best.
01:43:57Could I cooperate with them on the issue of open borders? I don't
01:44:01think so. As for other topics, for example, on the issue of men's participation
01:44:05in women's sports competitions, no, probably
01:44:07not. I believe that men should not...
01:45:53So yes, the regime change happened 8 months after the start of the war in Iran, only it happened not in Iran, but
01:45:57here with
01:45:58us.
01:46:01Well, and right now we are moving to Israel.
01:46:05On direct line from Tel Aviv, our Middle East bureau chief,
01:46:08Sergey Pashkov. Sergey, hello, but you just heard
01:46:12American Vice President JD Vance blamed the defeat
01:46:15of the entire Republican Party on the US war
01:46:19with Iran. How was this statement
01:46:23received in Israel, given that JD Vance also meant
01:46:27Netanyahu's fault? How can everything
01:46:30that is happening now affect, we
01:46:32delicately formulate, the very
01:46:35unusual relationship between Israel and Washington. You have the floor.
01:46:42Hello Olga, indeed, what is happening in relations
01:46:46between Israel and the United States of America
01:46:49over the last week causes surprise
01:46:52and misunderstanding among commentators and causes
01:46:56surprise and misunderstanding in Israel. In Israel
01:46:59they believed, they were practically convinced, that America is
01:47:02an unconditional strategic ally, that on the eve
01:47:05of the voting in Israel, when they elected the Knesset, Netanyahu
01:47:09spoke with...
01:47:13over the phone, analysts claimed that the nuances of strikes on the
01:47:16Islamic Republic of Iran were discussed, although some
01:47:19informed sources reported that the conversation was
01:47:22quite tense. Now
01:47:25the elections have taken place, all
01:47:28deadlines already, it would seem, have passed, the stated and
01:47:31announced by Benjamin Netanyahu, the practically
01:47:35inevitable war with Iran, is currently being postponed. Benjamin
01:47:38Netanyahu himself remains silent and does not appear at public
01:47:42events. Only one video posted by him after the elections flashed across the network,
01:47:46where he talks about the need to create a government
01:47:50of national unity, about the fact that Arab parties cannot be included
01:47:53in the coalition, which, by the way, he has always said,
01:47:56and it's unclear when this video was recorded. Netanyahu remains
01:48:00silent, and there is a reason why, yes, of course,
01:48:03Vice President "Jay Vance's" statement that
01:48:07the reason for the Republicans' defeat in the midterm elections was
01:48:11the war in Iran, and no one doubts that
01:48:14the main driving force of this war, the main initiator
01:48:18of the start of this forty-day war, which began in
01:48:21February, and led to no results other than
01:48:25the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, this initiator was
01:48:28Benjamin Netanyahu, and of course in Washington
01:48:31they look at him askance because of this. This war, which was easy to
01:48:35start, but from which it turned out to be impossible to get out, and
01:48:38Vance, by the way, already during the war articulated this
01:48:42point of view and even for some time was part of the US diplomatic
01:48:46efforts until Trump pulled him aside, meaning
01:48:50Vance signifies a certain change of course regarding
01:48:53Iran. This is first of all. Secondly, a black mark was sent
01:48:57to Benjamin Netanyahu by Donald Trump himself, and this happened
01:49:01literally 2 days ago, when he suddenly announced on his social networks
01:49:04that the story with
01:49:08the annual supply of 3 billion dollars to Israel, which
01:49:11Israeli military personnel used to buy equipment and weapons from
01:49:15the United States of America, ends this January.
01:49:19And Barack Obama had already signed
01:49:22a presidential decree for 10 years of such
01:49:26sponsoring, there are still 2 years ahead. It turned out
01:49:29that Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu
01:49:33discussed this even before the elections, and Benjamin Netanyahu concealed from
01:49:36his voters that Israel is now
01:49:39alone regarding weapons. He
01:49:43spoke, hinted, said that Israel would turn into Sparta, one must
01:49:47rely on one's own efforts, but no one thought that what
01:49:50was signed by Trump - excuse me, President Obama,
01:49:54whom Israel did not like, would be canceled
01:49:57by Donald Trump, whom they here considered almost
01:50:00a saint, and neither the Israeli Ministry of Defense, nor
01:50:04the IDF, nor the Ministry of Finance have
01:50:07an additional eight billion dollars for the next 2 years,
01:50:11they simply were not aware that they would be without this money. Netanyahu's supporters
01:50:15say that nothing terrible will happen, Israel will still
01:50:18survive, that this is only 3% of the defense budget, yes. presidential and
01:51:35one must be very careful about what this American
01:51:39politician does and says today after such a
01:51:42defeat of the Republicans in the midterm
01:51:45elections. Thank you very much, Sergey! Sergey Pashkov,
01:51:49head of our Middle East bureau on direct line. Tel
01:51:52Aviv, Israel.
01:51:55You know, when many are optimistic, I am
01:51:59pessimistic, but there is an upside to this.
01:52:02Accordingly, when many are pessimistic, I can
01:52:06be optimistic. I mean that in the results
01:52:09of the elections to the American parliament, I do not see a great
01:52:12drama from the point of view of Russian interests, and perhaps, strangely
01:52:16enough, there are certain advantages
01:52:19to this. What do I mean? Well, in fact,
01:52:23first, this is what many American experts talk
01:52:27about, that, this story,
01:52:30as political scientists call it, divided government, this is
01:52:34not the first case, of course, in the history of the United States, often
01:52:37leads to the fact that
01:52:40the elected president, having suffered a defeat in the midterm
01:52:44elections, begins to pay less attention
01:52:47to domestic politics and more attention to foreign policy,
01:52:50because on the domestic front, they will certainly throw a wrench in his
01:52:54plans. In this regard, there is no special reason for Trump
01:52:58to suffer with such a parliament, and in foreign policy,
01:53:02on the contrary, we have a relatively good relationship with Trump.
01:53:05not a bad situation, you know
01:53:08that I never had any illusions that the Americans would abandon
01:53:11Ukraine, but in this regard there is no need to panic now
01:53:15that the newly elected Democrats will start some kind of
01:53:18frantic search for options in order
01:53:21to strengthen... support for Ukraine, which was also mentioned today,
01:53:25and I agree with that, Ukraine was not abandoned by the United States, in
01:53:29this regard, they don't have the ability to significantly increase
01:53:33this support, from the point of view of our relations with Trump,
01:53:36on the contrary, we helped Trump
01:53:39in terms of the diesel deal, I,
01:53:42by the way, for the viewers of the 60 Minutes program, immediately said that
01:53:45this deal had no industry meaning, now when
01:53:49you read that those tankers with
01:53:52diesel might not reach America, they turned around,
01:53:55possibly going to Brazil, for us there is absolutely nothing terrible in this, because
01:53:59in fact, it was not assumed that our diesel would come
01:54:03to the United States in gigantic volumes, I
01:54:07already said that the United States itself now exports more than 5
01:54:10million tons of diesel per month, more than 5 million tons of diesel per
01:54:14month, in this regard, these volumes, 300,000 for October,
01:54:17500,000 for November, although Russia said it could export more, they had
01:54:21no industry meaning for the United States...
01:54:24Trump asked us, for us it had
01:54:28no risks, we gave him a political pass, he
