00:00Of course, we discussed events and developments around Iran.
00:06We have heard some rather good statements coming from Washington and Tehran this evening.
00:20We really hope that these statements come true. We have reviewed the progress of various mutual
00:26initiatives, including combating sanctions and legal pressure exerted the collective quest.
00:35This is nothing short of aggression. And we talked about forming the structure,
00:41unified security, indivisible security, and multipolarity in the 21st century.
00:50So my Belarusian counterpart has invited me, and yes, I'm going to take the invitation
00:55and take part in this conference, as I have done in the three previous ones.
01:00I think it will be another important step in expanding the initiative to create the architecture
01:08of security on the Eurasian continent that will be based on the principles of its indivisibility
01:15and equal rights. We have agreed to continue the practice of making joint statements
01:22under the banner of the Union State on international platforms. We have been doing this regularly
01:30on the most pressing issues of the international agenda.
01:37In April, we made a statement on the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons.
01:44It was made during the conference, review conference, non-proliferation of nuclear arms.
01:52We paid attention to the problem of strengthening our diplomatic presence.
01:57Last year, the total number of diplomatic presentations and offices of Belarus in our country grew to 15,
02:06with offices opening in Kazan and Ufa, with the ones in Krasnoyarsk and Novosibirsk to open soon.
02:16In turn, new offices of the Russian embassy are about to open in Vitebsk, Mogilov and Gomel.
02:23I am sure that this will further promote the goals set by our presidents within the Union State
02:34and it will improve the quality of working with our citizens
02:41and it will be made positively in all those cities. We are very satisfied by the results of today's meeting.
02:50We will continue regular contacts, including preparations to international events that we have mentioned today.
03:04Well, in the context of the way how situations are developing in many regions of our planet,
03:14we have come to a joint understanding of the greater significance of the past because history develops in a spiral
03:24and the fact is it's not only about the fact that monuments in many countries of the Western Europe are
03:33are actually burial places for many unknown soldiers who fell while liberating those states.
03:45It's not even the fact that those are Soviet soldiers who liberated those countries from Nazism.
03:54Soviet soldiers, the Belarusian, Russian, Azerbaijan, Kyrgyz, Kazakh, all the people who took part in that war.
04:05It's also a remembrance
04:09for the Europeans about the terrors
04:13that they suffered in World War II and some of those states were instigators and beginners of that
04:18that war with all its horrors like gas chambers with people being exterminated
04:29with this Lebensraum concept
04:34and every monument is a silent witness of all these horrors.
04:40of all these horrors.
04:40We see these monuments as green reminders
04:46that never again could those terrors repeat in our history.
04:52The elites pursue the practice of revanchism or review of the results of World War II.
05:01It reminds them of their involvement in the tragic events.
05:12There are parents and grandparents of them, some of them marched across
05:18those borders trying to conquer the Soviet Union and conquer the world supremacy.
05:23And now they're trying to get rid of those silent witnesses.
05:26And I'm confident that they plan not only to
05:31destroy those monuments to soldiers.
05:35And tomorrow they will maybe start talking about
05:43tearing down monuments in place of concentration camps.
05:47So the meaning of events that we hold together with the Russian Federation,
05:53be it a festival in Brest,
05:58we hold different conferences, joint seminars and workshops to make sure that memory lives on
06:08and that this memory is still present on the international level.
06:23It's an attempt not only to liquidate, to remove the memory of those history, of those heroes,
06:36those who won in that terrible war.
06:39These are also attempts to rewrite the war and to change, to swap
06:45the victors and the losers.
06:51Many statements recently made by the German leadership
06:55make me wonder
06:58whether we should maybe fight them harder.
07:01German Chancellor Mertz recently said that
07:09that making any concessions to Russia on the Ukrainian track would be
07:14tantamount to
07:16pacifying Hitler,
07:18satisfying Hitler.
07:23How do you like that?
07:24And they continue
07:26to ramp up their
07:29military projects for the Ukrainians.
07:33Germany's
07:34German Minister of Foreign Affairs
07:38stated recently that the German military will boost
07:43the exchange of experience with the
07:46with Ukraine's armed forces, basically with new Nazis.
07:52Probably
07:55Germany has been missing probably the Nazi ways that Ukraine has been showing.
08:05And Germany seems to be getting rid of masks
08:12and it's showing Nazi instincts again.
08:16And those Nazi instincts seem not to have gone anywhere.
08:24Minister of Foreign Affairs once again remembered what had happened in
08:28Bucha under near Kyiv
08:32in 2024.
08:33And he said that Bucha is the symbol of Russia's terror
08:37against Ukraine.
08:40You know, we have grown tired of trying to
08:44draw their attention to the fact
08:49that the West
08:51has been sabotaging any attempts to get any information on what had really happened there.
09:02When our troops were withdrawn from the location in April 2022,
09:08mayor of that town came back and spoke on cameras that Bucha is free.
09:14And then three days later, BBC journalists came
09:19and started filming dead bodies carefully laid around
09:25along the central street.
09:27Of course, this had been staged.
09:30But when we heard how the West was reacting to it,
09:35how it was
09:37this incident was used to blame everything on us
09:40and introduced new sanctions.
09:43We asked the United Nations,
09:45the structures in charge of human rights,
09:48to give us lists of
09:50people whose bodies were
09:54so carefully shown by the BBC crew,
09:57who conveniently
09:58happened to be nearby.
10:01It's been almost four years
10:03that we haven't been able to get any
10:06information from them.
10:07And I'm sure Germany's Minister of Foreign Affairs
10:11must know that.
10:13And then he goes and says once again that Bucha is the symbol of Russia's terror against Ukraine.
10:19Well, that means he's taken many pages out of Goebbels' book.
10:28There is a principle, there is a saying,
10:32a principle,
10:35son is not responsible for his father's action.
10:39Well, current leaders of Germany,
10:42their fathers and great
10:45and grandfathers
10:46were actively involved in Nazi actions during World War II.
10:54But when their sons, I mean,
10:56today's leaders of Germany, start using the same methods
11:02when they start
11:06justifying those who committed military crimes during World War II,
11:12that could only mean one thing,
11:14that in this situation,
11:16sons are responsible for what their fathers did.
11:28And what is Western Europe trying to achieve then?
11:35they seem to have completely lost the initiative in governing European affairs.
11:53The United States has been rather opened about how it positions itself now.
12:03During recent Congress hearings, Marco Rubio said that the United States cannot be a middleman here
12:09because it's on the side of Ukraine.
12:14Just yesterday, there was a phone conversation between President Putin and Trump,
12:18and they touched upon the topic, and President Trump
12:21confirmed that he is interested in finding a fair solution to the Ukrainian crisis.
12:30So, let's just observe and see what specific steps the United States take now.
12:36We still expect that the agreements reached on the 15th of August last year in Anchorage, Alaska,
12:45will be observed.
12:50Its key components had been proposed by the United States, by President Trump,
12:56and accepted by President Putin, and that would be a very important first step towards resolving the conflict.
13:06It would allow us to start coordinating many other matters that are there.
13:15There was an American 27-point plan.
13:18We still have certain questions to that, but we are ready to take it as the foundation.
13:33The Europeans here play a negative role in that.
13:37Immediately after Alaska, they hurried over to Washington, and they started pushing slowly but consistently
13:51for President Trump to go away from the line he had proposed, and that President Putin had supported
13:58during the Anchorage summit.
14:01And, you know, so far the Europeans have been successful at that.
14:05They've been paying a lot of attention to it.
14:11Over the last five months or so, the United States have been
14:19busy with the horrible trade crisis.
14:23Let's hope that the agreements announced recently are implemented.
14:31And we hope that, as Yuri Ushakov announced,
14:38Witkoff and Kushner, Mr. Witkoff and Mr. Kushner are going to Russia soon.
14:44And let's hope they will explain Washington's vision of the Alaska agreements.
14:54As for Europe, they have been very active.
15:04Well, the United States have been busy with Iran, and now Europe convened with Zelensky recently.
15:18And after that meeting, there was a five-point peace plan, which is nothing short of an ultimatum.
15:27And then three ambassadors requested a visit to the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
15:34My deputy, Mikhail Galuzin, received them.
15:40They didn't say anything new.
15:42They didn't propose anything new or anything different from that five-point ultimatum.
15:48They were mumbling something along the lines of,
15:51We support Ukraine, but we are not part of the war against Russia.
15:57Words, words, words. Nothing more than that.
16:00I really hope that the United States,
16:07which, under President Trump, has stepped forward with many useful initiatives,
16:15continues to keep the Ukrainian matter in focus,
16:21not leaving it up to the Europeans,
16:27which will continue the absolutely unfeasible thoughts,
16:32entertaining, unfeasible thoughts.
16:39Europe, as it has done,
16:43the last five centuries wants to create problems again.
16:48Europe has started all world wars, even before World War I.
16:53Napoleon
16:56arranged a war that organized almost all European states against the Russian Federation.
17:03Europe has always been intriguing and scheming.
17:15So, we know that we are used to that.
17:21Well, there have been hopes, and the president said many times that when ideological barriers collapsed,
17:29that there may be a time for new cooperation or new partnership.
17:34But later, it turned out that for 93 years they saw us as partners best kept on a leash.
17:46But when President Putin came to power and the Russian state
17:52restored its dignity and started pursuing its own principles,
17:57the West immediately changed its attitude.
18:01It all manifested as early as in 2004.
18:08During the election in Ukraine, that was won by President Yanukovych in the second round,
18:15and Yushchenko lost that election.
18:24And Europeans basically forced the Constitutional Court of Ukraine to assign a third round,
18:34although the Constitutional only provided for two rounds.
18:38And in the third round, Yushchenko won.
18:41Everything had been rigged for that.
18:44And before the voting,
18:49there were statements from Europe
18:53or demands from Europe to make the right choice between Europe and Russia.
19:01That was an either-or statement.
19:11Now, we've heard statements from Belgium, originating from Belgium.
19:22They are now saying that the European Union should
19:25listen to threats from Belarus and prevent their alliance with Moscow.
19:31That's how they study history, those guys.
19:42Well, our truth is clear.
19:47It's easy to understand for everyone who is not biased.
19:51We fight for the rights of people,
19:54for human rights that are set forth in Article 1 of the United Nations Charter.
20:00It says about the need to respect all people's rights,
20:05regardless of their race, gender, language or confession.
20:10Both the language and confession have been
20:15legislatively banned in Ukraine long ago.
20:18So, but to appease Europeans,
20:25not to appease Europeans,
20:28but in order to further cement
20:33the European support of the Nazi regime in Kyiv.
20:36Zelensky recently signed a law
20:40that the European
20:43Charter of Minorities is not applicable to the Russian Federation.
20:53and Stefan Chuk proudly said that this is further
20:58confirmation that Ukrainian people are faithful to their
21:05in their human rights effort.
21:07But Ukraine's constitution still says that it's the obligation of the state
21:13to ensure the rights of the Russian and other national minorities.
21:18But despite that, a whole series of laws
21:22have been passed.
21:24The list of that have been
21:26sent to the UN Secretary General
21:29with no response.
21:30Those laws banned Russian language everywhere.
21:39So, why sign something that already confirms the actions of the government of Ukraine?
21:48This law was passed last autumn.
21:59As they said in Ukraine's radar, it wasn't signed because of Russia's pressure on the
22:08European Council.
22:10Russia had withdrawn from the European Council long ago.
22:15So, what pressure could we have exerted?
22:20The explanation why Zelensky signed this law
22:24just recently, I think there are several reasons.
22:28First of all, Hungary reached an agreement with Ukraine,
22:33the reinstation of rights of Hungarian minorities
22:36living in Ukraine.
22:40And second,
22:42these days, an announcement was made that negotiations are about to begin
22:49about the joining of Ukraine and Moldova.
22:54So, it's a gesture
22:56meant to confirm once again that Ukraine's Nazism will continue
23:02on its course towards extermination of the Russian language.
23:06just when they're beginning negotiations with Europe.
23:13This is fully in line with the situation
23:15the current leaders of Ukraine over Europe
23:18and Ursula von der Leyen who said many times because they must be
23:23with Ukraine till the end because Ukraine is fighting for European values.
23:29Well, it sums up neatly that obviously supposed to mean that
23:34Ukrainian values also include
23:40banning of all things Russian, including Russian language,
23:45education, and so on.
23:46So, I have no illusions that Europe in its current configuration
23:50can do anything of value.
23:55But I have no doubt that they will
23:58do the best they can to thwart any efforts to regulate the situation.
