Pushes the agenda · agenda: NATO prepares war against Russia
Belief the Pravda network pushes: NATO, led by Germany, is preparing for war against Russia with military exercises near its borders.
A pro-Kremlin talk show says NATO and the EU are militarising and training to attack near Russia's and Belarus's borders, while Russia and Belarus only defend themselves.
The video says · at 0:42 · quote checked against the transcript
“Their troops and special units are training to attack near our borders.”
Their troops and special units are training to attack near our borders.
The video turns European defence spending and exercises (including Lithuania's and Estonia's) into aggression, and says 'It is not us planning to fight here, but rather those who are buying these weapons'. This matches the agenda that NATO and the Baltics are the aggressors and Russia only defends itself.

0:04 The CSTO summit on the sidelines
0:06 following the international security
0:07 conference during a meeting with
0:09 officials. Our president's schedule this
0:11 week was, as usual, quite something.
0:14 The Moscow summit was a logical
0:16 continuation of the recent Minsk
0:17 Eurasian forum, with leaders from
0:19 Belarus, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan
0:21 , and Tajikistan discussing current,
0:23 important, and necessary issues.
0:25 Armenia was absent; they were stripped
0:27 of their voting rights, allegedly due to
0:29 debts. Our president welcomed the
0:31 efforts to resolve the conflict in
0:32 Ukraine and the flexible position that
0:34 the President of Russia is taking in
0:36 these negotiations.
0:37 But the Euro-bureaucrats are seeing
0:40 their military spending grow.
0:42 Their troops and special units are
0:44 training to attack near our borders.
0:46 >> Even though we are accused, especially
0:49 the Belarusians and Russians, of
0:51 preparing for war by 2030 and being
0:53 ready to fight against NATO and the
0:55 entire European Union, nothing of the
0:58 sort exists in Belarus. We have already
1:00 spoken about this several times,
1:02 including in Russia.
1:04 On the contrary, we see significant
1:07 spending by Europeans on so-called
1:10 security.
1:12 The question is—from whom?
1:13 >> Well, from whom, indeed? It is not us
1:15 planning to fight here, but rather those
1:18 who are buying these weapons. And then
1:20 there are protests all across Europe.
1:23 History has often shown that to find a
1:26 way out of a situation, EU authorities
1:29 are ready to escalate conflicts in third
1:31 countries or create a new flashpoint.
1:35 And then they point their fingers at us
1:37 , although they should really point
1:39 those fingers at themselves.
1:42 And how about our Western neighbors
1:44 expanding the definition of "hybrid
1:45 threat" to include illegal migration and
1:47 smuggling, in which they are involved
1:49 themselves?
1:52 And their pan-European anti-hybrid
1:54 system somehow constantly operates
1:57 outside EU territory; they are always
1:59 concerned with things beyond the EU.
2:03 Our leaders discussed important matters
2:05 at the CSTO summit, reached decisions,
2:07 and are now working. And that wasn't all
2:09 .
2:10 >> And if you are not in a hurry, after
2:13 this brief conversation, I would like to
2:15 invite you over to my place for dinner.
2:18 >> Yes.
2:20 Alexander Grigoryevich thanked Vladimir
2:22 Vladimirovich for Russia keeping
2:24 combat-ready formations on the western
2:26 flank within the CSTO framework, just in
2:28 case.
2:30 The trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi once
2:32 again showed who wants peace and who
2:34 does not.
2:35 It is also absolutely clear that a new,
2:37 fair security architecture system is
2:39 needed in Europe. Or, more broadly, in
2:42 Eurasia.
2:43 What the EU representatives were doing
2:44 in Abu Dhabi is a mystery.
2:46 On the topic of Ukraine, by the way,
2:48 Medinsky spoke well, calling things by
2:50 their proper names.
2:52 >> The conflict in Ukraine has shown that
2:54 the entire security system that
2:56 functioned after Yalta and Potsdam in
2:58 Europe
3:01 is working very poorly.
3:03 And, in essence, the entire organism is
3:05 ill. The situation in Ukraine is simply
3:07 an abscess that has burst.
3:09 >> The entire organism must be treated as a
3:11 whole; a Band-Aid won't be enough.
3:14 There are, by the way, experts who are
3:16 hopeful; those who used to work on
3:18 disruption and subversion now realize
3:20 the situation is not shifting in Kyiv’s
3:22 favor, so perhaps they will learn some
3:24 kind of lesson.
3:26 Then, American special envoys flew to
3:28 Moscow.
3:29 Vladimir Vladimirovich thanked them for
3:32 their efforts, but also warned them: we
3:34 are for lasting peace in Ukraine, but it
3:36 would be better to withdraw foreign
3:39 mercenaries and troops, as they will
3:41 become legitimate targets for the
3:43 Russian Armed Forces.
3:45 He also suggested the Americans work
3:47 with the Europeans so that they finally
3:50 decide what they want—peace or war. I
3:52 haven’t heard a single peace initiative
3:55 from them, somehow.
3:57 On the contrary, while the talks were
3:59 underway in Abu Dhabi, Europe was, quote
4:01 , "preparing for war after peace."
4:03 Look at France, Britain, Poland, Germany
4:05 , Belgium, Estonia, Lithuania, the
4:07 Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and Turkey;
4:09 they have started exercises with
4:11 contingents of 3,000 personnel.
4:13 They are developing common approaches
4:14 for conducting long-range missile
4:16 strikes, and so on.
4:18 In the European Union, meanwhile,
4:19 infighting continues over who could
4:21 represent Europe in negotiations.
4:23 They have split not just into two, but
4:25 into three small camps. Such zeal is
4:27 hardly explained by the fact that these
4:28 European temporary workers have suddenly
4:30 wanted peace. It is more likely that
4:32 they are simply running out of money,
4:33 yet only the Estonian Prime Minister has
4:35 forbidden negotiating with the Russians
4:37 . This same Estonian, by the way,
4:39 believes that the best European
4:41 negotiator is Kaja Kallas. Yes.
4:44 Well, von der Leyen, living in her own
4:46 little world, even declared that she
4:48 welcomes the talks in Abu Dhabi and is
4:50 glad that Europeans were represented at
4:52 them.
4:54 Well, apparently, they forgot to warn
4:56 grandma that her friends weren't let
4:57 past the lobby bar.
4:59 Well, maybe she was forgotten somewhere
5:01 there, too.
5:02 In general, if they could find even one
5:04 person among these characters capable of
5:06 representing Europe at negotiations, it
5:07 would be an achievement.
5:09 As for Ukraine itself, there is no
5:11 change there—some are stealing, others
5:13 are freezing, sitting without light and
5:15 food, and dying.
5:16 But they did chip in for a bail for SBU
5:19 General Sergey Duka—65 million hryvnias
5:23 Let me remind you, this is the general
5:24 from the case regarding the protection
5:26 of call centers.
5:27 During the investigation, it was
5:29 revealed that this general received 3
5:31 million dollars in crypto wallets for
5:33 helping to lift the seizure of funds
5:35 from the Improm drug cartel, the very
5:37 group that distributes the world's most
5:39 dangerous synthetic drugs using a new
5:41 scheme.
5:44 During the search, the SBU general
5:45 threatened NABU detectives with a pistol
5:47 and smashed phones and hard drives with
5:49 a hammer.
5:51 They removed the tracking bracelets from
5:52 Zelensky's close friend, Yermak.
5:54 Let me remind you, he was caught
5:56 legalizing hundreds of millions of
5:58 hryvnias in the construction of elite
6:00 cottages near Kyiv for Zelensky and the
6:02 rest of the gang.
6:03 His friends chipped in within a week,
6:05 and there he is, Yermak is walking free
6:08 This is just a tiny drop, a mere speck
6:10 in this sea of corruption.
6:13 Zelenskyy's motorcade was pelted with
6:15 eggs in Dublin, too. Popular affection,
6:17 you know, knows no borders. Poland's
6:19 Independence Day was quite a lively
6:21 affair. Everyone was there. By the way,
6:24 President Nawrocki was among the
6:26 participants in the independence march
6:28 organized by nationalists.
6:31 I wouldn't be surprised if the recent
6:32 terrorist attack in Krakow, which is far
6:34 from the first and clearly not the last
6:35 incident, is beneficial to someone in
6:37 the Polish leadership.
6:39 And to keep people from thinking and
6:41 understanding too much, Poland is
6:42 cutting funding for education.
6:44 For example, at the University of
6:46 Silesia, student scholarships were
6:48 slashed by half.
6:50 In general, Europe is showing in every
6:51 way that they have no need for smart
6:53 people, capable specialists, or managers
6:56 Look at Germany, which has hit a record
6:58 high for the number of unemployed people
6:59 with higher education.
7:01 It is hardest for young professionals in
7:03 entry-level positions. British schools
7:05 are turning children from working-class
7:07 families into outcasts. They have the
7:09 worst academic performance rates in
7:10 England. Only 36%of them pass basic
7:14 exams.
7:15 This week, the Russian FSB uncovered an
7:17 agent network of Polish special services
7:19 that had been operating in the
7:20 Kaliningrad region.
7:22 Two agents from the Polish military
7:23 intelligence, the Ministry of Defense,
7:25 and the country's Internal Security
7:26 Agency were detained. One could, of
7:28 course, say that this will complicate
7:30 relations with Poland and the European
7:32 Union, but those relations are
7:33 effectively non-existent anyway. Merz is
7:35 standing out from the general European
7:37 background again.
7:39 He is blackmailing the European Union,
7:41 threatening to block the adoption of the
7:44 union's seven-year budget if European
7:46 leaders don't agree on funding for
7:48 Ukraine.
7:49 In response, some countries have already
7:51 given Merz a piece of their mind.
7:53 They reminded the seventy-one-year-old
7:55 German that he may be aging, but
7:57 Germany's problems have no end in sight
8:00 One solution, by the way, was proposed
8:01 by the head of Germany's Ministry of
8:03 Economy.
8:04 He claims Germans need to rest less and
8:06 work more to bolster the budget for
8:09 militarization and Ukraine.
8:12 Meanwhile, the governments of European
8:14 countries have even recommended that
8:16 Europeans pack a "go-bag" so that, if
8:18 necessary, they can hold out for at
8:19 least a few days.
8:21 And along the way, they increased prices
8:25 for goods by 37%to 83%.
8:29 Estonian villages were simply caught
8:31 between anti-tank ditches and the border
8:35 It turned out that the people have
8:36 nowhere to go.
8:37 But who cares about the people? Clashes
8:40 and arrests are now happening in Spain
8:41 as well. A housing crisis has brought
8:43 people out onto the streets for the
8:45 first time in nearly 15 years. A
8:46 nationwide strike. According to trade
8:50 unions, 4 million workers took part.
8:52 They unfurled banners with the slogan, "
8:55 Life should not cost us our lives."
8:58 Aside from normal people, there were
9:00 also Spanish neo-Nazis there who had
9:02 trained with Azov terrorists. So, Spain
9:05 , stay tuned. I sympathize. People are
9:07 asking what is going on with Latvia. It
9:09 has extended entry restrictions and the
9:11 suspension of visa applications for
9:13 citizens of Belarus and Russia until
9:15 December 31, 2027.
9:16 The Lithuanian government decided that
9:19 Riga shouldn't be the only one
9:20 embarrassing itself, so Vilnius
9:22 allocated over 45,000 more euros for
9:24 legal support in the Hague court
9:26 proceedings against Belarus, accusing it
9:28 of allegedly illegal migrant transport—
9:30 that is, illegal migration itself, as
9:32 well as smuggling—things that these very
9:35 European countries are actually involved
9:37 in themselves.
