russian assets. our correspondent will tell you what statements have already been made regina sevastyanova. the united states, the european union and nato are competing to see who will supply more weapons to ukraine, which in turn leads to an escalation of the situation, says hungarian foreign minister peter szijjártó. on the eve of the council in luxembourg, he announced that brussels seemed to be preparing for a new world war. preparations for a world war in brussels are intensifying; now the auction is almost underway. between the american left, nato and brussels, instead of focusing on peace seeking diplomatic solution. today, new arms deliveries and billions of euros are on the agenda. belgium, which currently holds the presidency of the european union, said that today the first topic for discussion is the ukrainian ministers of foreign affairs and defense of ukraine, also invited to luxembourg. first of all, they will ask for even more air defense systems. as the media found out, it was still the tenth.

spain and greece are now under serious pressure from other eu countries, it is claimed that at a summit here in brussels last week head. countries of the european union, the leaders convinced

the heads of the spanish and greek governments to transfer more air defense systems from their own reserves to ukraine, but at least before the start of the council today, the foreign ministers of these two countries did not make any specific promises, so berlin hopes for a faster resolution of this issue, as you know, germany announced that it is ready to transfer another air defense system to kiev, but according to experts, this is not enough, because just this month...

including in the field of air defense. for this we have there was an initiative from the german side to transfer another patriot system, and joint steps are planned within the framework of the semey group and the nato council ukraine. everyone is studying their arsenals and looking at what they could convey. information, however, indicates that this may be an attempt to slightly improve the public image. berlin is still under fire for refusing to hand over damaged taurus missiles to ukraine. also today, during their council, ministers.

making such a similar decision may lead to the collapse of the existing economic system, in general we are also very skeptical about this, because this is nothing more than the destruction of all the foundations of the economic system, this is an encroachment on state property, on state property, on

private property, this cannot be perceived in any way like some legal actions, they are illegal and , accordingly, they must become, will one way or another be the subject of some retaliatory actions, b the subject of legal proceedings, both of which will be a very complex process, but it will cause great harm to the economic interests of the united states. if such measures are implemented, of course, many countries, many investors will think 10 times before making any investments in the american economy or storing their holdings there. polish president andrzej duda said that poland is ready to deploy nuclear weapons on its territory if nato allies decide so. according to him, this topic has been the topic of negotiations with the united states for some time. duda added that in his opinion, such placement would help strengthen the eastern flank

of the north atlantic alliance. and the words of the president of poland on the issue of the deployment of nuclear weapons were commented on in the federation council. this is what the head of the committee said in an interview for our channel. in the international situation, poland, it can seriously plunge into the whole situation since we are not talking about the deployment of some kind of wedges and so to speak cars, but the deployment of nuclear weapons, if you think about it, this is absolutely boorish. some reckless statement by duda can bring a lot of harm, tears and problems to poland itself. in more than 3,500 people were evacuated due to the flood in the tyumen region.

an additional detachment of military engineers was sent to the region. as governor alexander maor previously reported, the likelihood of a damp breakthrough is growing. our correspondent, stanislav bernwald, is monitoring the development of the situation on the ground. now in direct communication, stanislav, greetings again, to what levels can the ishim river rise and what is the current situation in the region? dasha, dasha, hello, really in the tyumen region. the flood situation is still extremely tense, but if we talk about the city of ishim, it has become easier here, the fact is that the increase in rivers in the city area, as experts say, was small, only 13 cm, but nevertheless there is an increase, when compared with previous days, the increase in the area was 2 .5 m, so it’s already going a little lower, but the obbatsky district of the tyumen region is now at risk of flooding, it is located lower. downstream, but i’ll tell you about this a little later, today the governor told us what the situation

is in the tyumen region itself and where a water spill is possible, the water is slowly leaving, but it moves along the ishim river, to the city of ishim, yesterday there was a slight increase, but today at 8 am the water level is 10 m 64 cm and this is 82 cm higher than the level that was reached. in 2017, by and large this is a new historical record, but the dynamics over the past hours indicate that today we can expect the formation of a peak water level in the city of ishim. in the obbat region, as i said, a little higher up, they are now expecting high water, the same events are now taking place there as were held the day before and here, directly in the city of ishim, the dams are being strengthened, the ridge of the dam is being built up, the problem there is that... the federal highway r-402 is located nearby, there is a risk of flooding, i’ll also tell you about this

a little later, a large number of volunteers from here from ishim were redeployed to the village obadskoe. let's listen to what the head of the district says: the big water will come the day after tomorrow, an event that we are holding on the territory of the obad district, we have been carrying them out since the introduction of the emergency regime, that is, since the eighth. april of this year, this means, understanding that the water is higher than the historical flood of 2017, we are increasing the crest of our hydraulic structures due to earthen embankments, in the regional center this is the southern dam, the northern dam and, of course, the federal road, these three objects actually protect our regional center from... there is a risk that the water will rise so high that

an overflow could occur right on the federal highway, this is already serious, the flow there is quite serious, this problem must be solved now, experts say, rosavtodor employees are now building up the so-called edges of the road to prevent water from pouring onto the road surface. temporary accommodation points are operating for evacuation, people can also leave valuables for storage, and

about 300 schoolchildren from dozens of countries around the world came to the competition in china. our team is represented by the strongest, what awards will the young chemists compete for and what are the chances for the russians, our special correspondent in china alexander baletsky found out. non-cancellation of flights entering the tropical season. only today a breakthrough appeared, the time difference did not affect their personal chemistry, to chemistry, just to three olympiad stages, the chairman of the jury, professor gladilin, jokes, there was also an unplanned fourth, the first round was how to get here, but thank god, the vast majority of participants managed, at the international mentel olympics, which this year is being hosted by china for the first time, a team of russian schoolchildren is able confident, it was a bit rustic, well, yes, what does he count on, i count on first place, mikheev generally breaks all stereotypes. an eleventh-grader from a rural school in altai took international silver in chemistry in switzerland, and mikhail perelman, who dreams of creating medicines in the future, as

his last name obliges. there are 10 of them, all of them are already the best in russia, winners of the all-russian olympics, but participation in the mendeleev olympics is still at a different level. this year it will be very difficult for them, because china has a very strong squad. for the home olympics, they entered, one might say, the first line-up of prize- winners. all the chinese olympiads are set up this way or that, it’s still stuffy, but the tasks here are superior in terms of difficulty, those that at the world olympiad, even the inspectors would have to sweat, this is of course not science in its purest form, but the main thing is to make the groundwork, identify talented children, watch how they develop, support, well, this is the most important thing, because in the end science is will consist of those who will gain interest in this type of activity, who will then follow this road in life; russia in such competitions is usually always in the lead to win. they are now reading all the reasons for this, usually, as they say, the walls at home help, but here the walls, well, almost like at home, the main building of the joint russian-chinese university in

sheinjen, a quarter-size copy of the legendary moscow state university skyscraper on vorobyovy gory, a symbol of all russian education. the largest russian-chinese educational project, the joint university of moscow state university and beijing polytechnic university, was created by the decision of vladimir putin and sidzenping exactly 10 years ago on the basis of the best russian education. science, so the choice of a site for the olympiad of programs with an emphasis on the exact and natural is logical for young chemists to have a week ahead brainstorming and storming, and developed their own chemical formula for success. alexander baalsky, nikolai petrov, news from shinzhenya, china. the european union is considering the possibility of including a ban on the import of russian lng in the 14th package of sanctions. a decision could be made before the end of spring. what will be the consequences of this? dmitry morocco will tell you about the steps for the european market itself. a ban on the import of russian lng may be included in the fourteenth package of anti-russian

sanctions. from a political point of view , this will be the most important step for the european union, he said swedish foreign minister tobias billström. but the economic consequences could be critical. a sharp restriction on liquefied natural gas purchases will likely lead to an energy shock for the european market, finance notes. times, because russia is now the second largest supplier to europe after the united states; its share was about 16% last year. in total, the bloc countries imported 15.5 million tons of russian lng, with france, spain and belgium among the main buyers. this is not the first attempt bring in gas or flared natural gas, sanctions packages have been undertaken over the past few years.

energy balance, as noted by the agency for cooperation of energy market regulators, it will be extremely difficult for the european union to find a balance between its own security and the desire to strike a blow to russia’s income. after the winter season passed, the level of reserves in the gas storage facilities of eu countries dropped below 60%, now amounting to just under 66 billion cubic meters. a significant share of these reserves was previously formed through pipeline supplies. russian gas through ukraine, but the european commission has made it clear that it is not interested in extending the transit agreement, which expires at the end of the year. thus, eu countries may lose

supplies of about 15 cubic meters, which is exactly what came through the ukrainian route last year. austria, hungary and slovakia, which receive this gas, will be the first to be hit; if russian lng is abandoned, the european union will face a fuel famine, replacing all these volumes with accounting for supplies from other countries will be problematic, experts say. this will definitely lead to a noticeable increase in prices, but we can expect an increase in prices, i think by 30-40%, exactly in relation to the price of russian gas.

supplied 8,700,000 tons. in addition to europe, the main buyers include asian countries: china, japan, south korea, thailand, so if necessary, supplies can be redirected, especially since there is demand and prices are only rising. in april, amid fears of conflict in the middle east, they reached their highest levels since the beginning. january - reports bloomberg. if a complete ban on russian lng supplies to europe is suddenly introduced, then we will have to look for other markets. today. japan occupies second place after europe, china is second, south korea is third, the rest of the niches are quite small, that is, we are talking about individual parties, and therefore if suddenly the need arises to completely abandon the european market, to look for alternatives, then -first, we will have to look for and expand these new niches, that is, not rely only on china, and let’s say expand supplies to india, which so far only purchases individual batches. in the context of a reduction in pipeline

gas supplies to russia. intends to further develop lng production. by 2030, it is planned to increase this volume to 100 million tons, which will be equal to 1/5 of the world’s production.

now economic news, briefly. german to...
