promise than you can imagine. perhaps someday we will learn the details of the crisis management of that time. for now, the abstract idea of ​​negotiations is in the air, although even their subject is not clear. we invited our good friend nikolai selaev to discuss the phenomenon of diplomacy in modern conflicts. he is not only a serious international affairs scholar, but also the owner of valuable experience, participation in hopeless negotiations, namely the minsk process. kohl, hi, hi, let's start with this practical aspect, here should the cessation of hostilities in the conflict be a precondition for negotiations or, on the contrary, the result of these negotiations? i think the difficulty of the situation is that they have already tried both, in the 10 years that this conflict has been going on, because the first minsk agreements.

yushchenko submitted this application then, the idea, apparently, was to cement in this way the results of the first coup d'etat in kiev in 2004, so that the question of ukraine’s foreign policy course close and thereby close the question of power within the country. well, now the boomerang has come in an interesting way, because the ukrainian issue has now partly become a domestic political issue in the united states, which is very... kiev is of course depressing, here is another aspect that related to the minsk negotiations, of course to the istanbul negotiations and to all hypothetical ones in the future, here this phenomenon when those who are the subjects of negotiations do not coincide, or do not completely coincide, and those on whom, in fact, the decision depends, in the minsk negotiations, it is clear that western power stood behind ukraine, well, behind the republics it is also clear that russia stood, which officially... it

is ukraine itself that must make the decision, but the point here is not even that there are two entities, and it is not clear which of them , actually makes a decision, but the problem here is that these two subjects can point at each other endlessly, in russia they often quote this phrase from david arakhamia, the leader of the faction of the servant of the people, the servant of the people in the verkhovna rada, who spoke to...

this applies to a large extent to russia and belarus, but for other reasons it was easier for them to draw this cultural border in the area where russia ends and ukraine begins, yeah, but there is no such clear border, although it is clear that the differences grow as we move from east to west or from west to east, and the ukrainian political elite has been solving the problem all these 30-odd years of independence -

six months before the start of a special military operation, where it was clearly stated that we are generally ready to recognize ukraine as it is, provided that it does not will be anti-russian, but from the fact that you... in general, it was already clear that she could not help but be different along the trajectory that was going on. the last one, well , maybe it’s premature now, but still, it’s clear that negotiations are not necessarily a desire to reach an agreement, it can be some kind of tactical move, an imitation to stall for time, in order to have more opportunities on the battlefield , this is a completely legitimate tactic for everyone, but can one say from the experience of not this conflict, but in general? is there some criterion, some moment when it becomes it’s clear that it’s time

to move on from imitation to a serious discussion. we know of cases in world history when the point was made precisely on the battlefield, we know of a case in world history when the point was made at the moment of exhaustion of resources, and at the same time, well, it is clear that from the point of view of resources, ukraine is now not using its own, but its readiness she...

they threaten him with the fate of his predecessor, he was dismissed because the extreme republicans saw compromise with the democrats, but although everything is shaky in congress, there is a chance of approval. meanwhile, the most high-profile trial of the year began in new york; former president and presidential candidate donald trump was put on trial on charges that could put him in jail before the election. on april 15, 2024, donald trump, former us president, appeared in criminal court for the first time in history in connection with the so-called case of porn actress stormy daniels. the point is that while married, trump... dated different models from time to time, this happened by mutual consent, but on the eve of the 2016 elections

years, the girls began to talk about their adventures, so trump’s lawyers entered into an agreement with them, and without disclosure, naturally, large sums of money were paid, sometimes in cash, sometimes through some kind of funds. in porn star storm daniels, trump's lawyer michael cohen generally paid out of his own money. it all looks like... dollars for the russian dossier that russia gate launched, the case cost a fine, but

the manhattan prosecutor's office presents it in a different light. according to the prosecutor, fraudulent reporting should hide something else crime, conspiracy to manipulate elections. prosecutors believe that the reports were changed in order to mislead voters so that they would not learn about the future president's affairs. thus, by hiding negative information, the conspirators increased trump’s chances in the election. the key factor in this case may be the location of the proceedings. the president's fate must be decided by a jury. the jury will select 12 people, each of whom will be asked dozens of questions about how they feel about trump. whether they went to his rallies or perhaps spoke against him. ultimately, they will have to decide whether he is guilty or not. if yes, then the court will determine the punishment. in total this is 136 years in prison, but this is unlikely to be

the sentence. the problem is different: despite the controversial charges, and some say even their absurdity, the new york jury may find trump guilty simply based on their sentiments. manhattan is inhabited mainly by democratic party supporters who do not like trump. presidential protection tried to move the process to the stayton area. where republicans meet more often, but unsuccessfully, jury selection has ended at the trial, will soon begin...

we live, this is on the one hand, on the other hand, if we talk, for example, about judges, although in this context the judge plays a smaller role, because that he mainly oversees the order of the trial by and large, so in fact the question is how much a specific judge or how much each specific member of the jury will be guided by his ideas about justice or law or order, or on the other hand will be under the influence of well this... theatercracy - in general it is impossible to predict, but in any case, what can we say that i still believe that the degree of independence of the judicial system in the same united states is still significantly higher than in most of the general legal systems of the world known to us, so to speak, so i still don’t think that the trials of, say, trump

are exclusively political trials, they are being pushed, perhaps. from this side, but already within the framework, so to speak, of legal procedures, i think that no one is interested in turning justice into a final farce, because this will have a bad effect on all participants in the process in the long term. well, trump constantly emphasizes what a patriot of america he is, which means he must trust the court strictly. meanwhile, the presidential race continues, polls give different results, but it seems that trump has noticeably pulled away from biden. now biden seems to be catching up, and, by the way, is ahead of his opponent in size donations. the fragile state of health of donors does not bother, even the decrepit biden, many prefer to the terrible trump. our regular author, dmitry vershinin, talked with those for whom donald trump is worse than a bitter retic. this is the muriacha ensemble, a traditional

musical group in mexican culture. a group of “friends from a party are filming a video for a new song on the square,” in a historical gathering place for musicians of this style. in los angeles there are hundreds and dozens of violinists, trumpet players who support and promote this unique style of self-expression of immigrants from mexico. this song is dedicated to my friend whose son recently died. we wrote.

trump is the winner of the presidential race. he is not my president, not my president. thousands of young people left classrooms and marched through the streets and highways. in the square in front of the city hall , they protested against the future policies of the newly elected forty-fifth president. today, local university campuses are quiet, but students are a litmus test of the american one. i am terrified from the thought that trump could become president again, he is a direct threat to democracy in the united states and the lives of people abroad. twenty- one-year-old rachel brunette is studying psychology and middle eastern culture at almater, the university of southern california. rachel from philadelphia is afraid of trump's dictatorial ways, afraid that he will make

students his enemies, but most of all, rachel, who is jewish, is afraid that... he will completely ban abortion. i am a woman and i am jewish. often conversations about abortion are dictated by the so-called pro-life position - concepts for life. however, according to jewish canons, abortion is not just permitted. abortion is mandatory if there is a threat to the mother's life. in judaism we adhere to the principle: save one life and you will save the whole world, take away a life and you will destroy the world. therefore, the conversation that freedom of abortion violates the religious principles of the group. donald trump's presidency, he is proud to have nominated three justices to the supreme court whose conservative beliefs allowed pro-life activists to take away american women's right to

abortion. today in fourteen american abortion is illegal in states, including in cases of rape and incest. women were deprived of the right to choose, and this is even worse than not being given the right to something in the first place. for decades , american society has treated the right to abortion as a given and... even in court, which did not stop them from abolishing it. many women today view this as a betrayal. debivosh from the center for women in politics believes that abortion will be the main motivation of american women in future elections. the conservative part of society is now considering the possibility of a federal ban on abortion, a ban on contraception and the likely repeal of the legalization of gay marriage. however, walsh urges us not to forget about trump's dictatorial ways. as soon as he becomes a candidate, all this will come to light, the chaos that surrounds trump, the chaos that he creates with his actions, all these statements of his, i will be a dictator, but only on

the first day, and his compliments to world dictators, they say, are strong the men he worships will be reminded by the media or the americans who will say, “oh my god, i remember all that.” i'm very smart very talented very good negotiator. nobody told me before that he is a very tough guy, a very strong person, and we talked to each other for a long time. americans, who are raised from a young age to have absolute respect for the institutions of democracy, perceived almost as sacred, will certainly remember january 6, the day when trump called on his supporters to march on the capitalist hill and interrupt the counting procedure. what groups fear most today is a second term for president donald trump.

americans are beginning to closely examine the evolution of trump's views as he tries to formally secure the position of the republican candidate. dmitry vershinin for international viewing. los angeles, california. after australia, iraq, colombia, mongolia, new zealand, pakistan, south korea and japan. well done argentines. under the new president, they took a stand against brix, they were brushed aside, and now they will integrate into the friendly nato wedge. there is a small gap there and just for this lively, like javier miley. hey, remember, little crane, this word, this was an international review, let’s fly on. alpha friday,
