what is healthy male power? i have not seen it. guys try very hard to get a reputation for being masculine, but this reputation is constantly under threat. men now have the opportunity to be human. vulnerability is the missing link that men need to become truly strong. here on the first floor , when they were shooting, the wave hit, russia, and tied our hands and put us under the turkish yataghan.

ancient cities of the world, 30 years older than rome, a lively, sun-drenched megalopolis, looking at other cities and villages in the literal sense from above, it stands at an altitude of more than a thousand meters above sea level. this autumn, yerevan is noisy and crowded, the roads to zvartnots airport were clogged with cars. after the mobilization announced in russia, planes could not keep up with the transportation

of russians who did not want to go to war to yerevan, despite the sky-high ticket prices. and a week before the announcement of the mobilization , it was the opposite. fully packed planes flew from yerevan to russia. those who feared the advance of neighboring azerbaijan left armenia. on september 13, explosions thundered in the territory of armenia. the cities of vardenis, guris, sotk and jermuk. the military departments of both countries blamed each other, saying that we were not the first to start, but more importantly, it was not who started it, what did it lead to, hundreds of people died on both sides, both military and civilians. armenia then really expected help from its main northern ally, from russia, but instead of help it received only a recommendation to sit down at the negotiating table.

withdrawal of azerbaijani troops from the territory of armenia, what was demanded ireland. the military actions on the border of the two states had consequences both in armenia itself and in azerbaijan. several rallies were held in yerevan. the protesters demanded the resignation of prime minister nikol pashinyan and the country's withdrawal from the csto. well, the azerbaijani authorities said that they did not enter the territory of armenia and that they only attacked military targets.

one of the shells hit the wall of this residential building, in the basement, miraculously, without hitting the gas pipe, it fell about half a meter from it, from there,

after almost 30 years, guris again became a frontline town, and the road to lachin was again under the control of azerbaijan. it was here that a couple of years ago endless streams of refugees went towards the ararat valley and... to yerevan. now the residents of goris are very afraid to talk on camera, they fear that they themselves will soon have to give up everything and leave. orarat is a huge machine

more than 500 m high, the main symbol of armenia, which adorns its coat of arms and is visible from almost anywhere in the country. u... but the mountain, sacred to armenians, has been in the on the territory of turkey, and to see it more closely, you need good binoculars from the observation deck of the khor verab monastery. the armenians lost their sacred mountain in 1921, when, with the participation of the rsfsr , a prisoner was taken. in the same year, another armenian historical province, artsakh, finally became part of the azerbaijani

ssr by decision of the central committee of the bolshevik party. artsakh or people's karabakh, a region in the foothills of the lesser caucasus, became part of greater armenia back in the century bc. since then there. armenian culture dominated, but at the same time, it was karabakh that became the cradle of the azerbaijani ethnic group in the 11th century ad. this territory repeatedly changed hands in the war of 1992-94, the karabakh armenians achieved de facto independence, occupying not only karabakh itself, but also seven regions of azerbaijan, which became the so-called security belt. unrecognized republic, all these almost 30 years azerbaijan stubbornly tried to regain these lands. in 2020, having achieved success. the war, which was later called the forty-four-day war, ended with the defeat of the armenian armed forces, the loss of seven

districts, part of karabakh itself and the lachin corridor. and now in armenia, voices are increasingly heard that this historic defeat was not without. russia's participation, this is an alliance, in fact, no one is hiding it anymore, an alliance between whom and whom, turkey, russia, what? geopolitical goal, power in the caucasus. until recently, margarita lived in the village of hadrut, which in 2020 came under the control of azerbaijan. since the late eighties, she has been a member of national liberation movement, which sought to transfer the nagorno-karabakh autonomous region to armenia, then participated in the first karabakh war, but was won then.

because such was the order from russia. nevertheless, she and her family continued to live in their native hadrut, even in the midst of a new war, hoping that here, among the high mountains and under the protection of the russian-armenian air defense, they would not be reached by bombs and missiles. you see, how the air defense does not work, and the first blow hits immediately, all drones simply destroy everything pvl everything, the sky is open. armenia and russia united their air defense in 2016,

agreeing that in the event of an attack , air defense control would pass to russia, but in the fall of 2020, for some reason, the air defense did not work, and as margarta is sure, it was not by chance. russia drove us into the csto, into this customs union, it did not give us, and it is generally, you understand, russia. parties of armenia, for many years he has been against cooperation with russia

for leaving the csto and turning towards nato. tigran is trying convince their compatriots that russia needs armenia only because of its strategic location. armenia is located at the crossroads of transport arteries that in the future could play an important role in world trade. one of them will connect the black sea with the persian. cutting off armenia from iran, cutting iran off from the routes to the west to the black sea, this was one of the main strategic tasks.

russia was already then obviously preparing for war in ukraine and needed a land corridor russia-azerbaijan-turkey, through which should have been going on already and... tigran, the author of feature and documentary films, studied with lotman, chukhrai,

meta, headed the yerevan tv film studio for 8 years, visited all the karabakh warriors, including the last one, which he considers very strange, because their army was disoriented, some of the russian weapons were faulty, and the russian air defense did not work. as if confirming tigran's doubts, the russian -made niva we rented also suddenly decided to break down, if not for the help of the foreign. auto industry, we will be for a long time would be stuck on the street, not far from the office of the european party, but armenia will hardly be able to acquire faulty russian weapons with the help of foreign ones, because it is connected with russia by allied relations, including in the matter of arms supplies. we can easily organize arms supplies

if we leave the csto. we have been told this many times in the west, we simply cannot supply you with weapons, because we are not just.

ukraine and armenia, as democratic states, are today subject to aggression from authoritarian states. voices are increasingly heard in the media that it is really time for armenia to free itself from the suffocating embrace of its long-standing ally in order to regain control over its borders and even, why not, remove

the russian military base from the city of gyumri. the majority of the population would be for this today. namely today after the events, especially the last few weeks, since in the fact that - from in relation to the main threat to armenia, the russian military base does not play any role. gyumri is a few hours' drive away northwest of yerevan, the distance is short, but because of the quality of the highway there is a 50 km/h speed limit everywhere. every now and then, as if on purpose , military aircraft fly over the cars at low altitude. they imitate a ramming attack or something. and sometimes it happens that you are driving, and it flies very quickly over you. levon, also a journalist and also a politician, was a member of the council of elders, the local

city council. for armenia, whose prime minister and speaker of parliament are journalists, such a combination seems normal when it comes to a russian military base, levon recalls not the recent escalation of the karabakh conflict, but a terrible crime seven years ago. after the murder of the avitesyan family in 2015 in my city, and also after we all learned that russia was selling a very large amount of offensive weapons to azerbaijan, the attitude of people. january 2015, according to the official version, serviceman valery permyakov took a machine gun, cartridges and headed for the armenian-turkish border. on the way, he broke into a common yard, where he was noticed by men

families. permikov shot them with a machine gun, and then went into the house and killed the women and children. and it seems that at night the oshi made a mistake with the house, several houses here and there. this is not the only crime story connected with the russian military. in gyumri, they also talk about brutal fights and attacks.

completely destroyed by the earthquake, here alone almost 14,000 people died, and tens of thousands were left homeless.

and to this day in gyumri, almost every tenth family lives in container houses built in the courtyards. now the city is successfully developing as a tourist center and could be built much faster if not for the military base, which occupies a huge territory. and then on the twenty-second, the presence of a russian base in gyumri does not help armenia in any way in terms of security, and many of our interlocutors believe that in karabakh itself

, russian troops do not provide this security either, they have pledged to the turks that they will liquidate the karabakh liberation army, do you even understand what this is, that is, 120 thousand people are today. now in armenia they don’t know what to think, suddenly the same situation will repeat itself, only no longer in disputed territories, in the south of the republic itself, because the eternal rivals, moscow and ankara are increasingly finding common interests. russia has already stated that it wants to see turkey as a gas hub, why not a transport hub then? they need their cargo to turkey not to be checked from the armenian side, that is, if... this is an extraterritorial corridor, armenia will not have its own customs points there, there will be no checks, that is, the people's

arena, if earlier in yerevan they relied only on russian diplomacy, now they are turning to the echr , the international criminal court, the un committees. once margarita was invited to give a report at one of the sessions of the united nations, and now she hopes that diplomacy is only the beginning. but since they treated us like this, i say again, we also have pride, we have self-esteem, we will now behave as we need, please, mother russia, be patient, russia's authority here, as a result of the recent conflicts, to put it mildly, has greatly diminished, and no matter what the russian authorities say, the people of armenia. they are now reluctant to believe them, and this is another obvious diplomatic failure of moscow, because historically, there probably was no

more loyal ally of russia in the transcaucasus than armenia, and now a rift has appeared in this monolithic friendship, as if a huge crack suddenly yawned in a mighty mountain. the marine police of frontex, the european agency for external border security, is searching refugees trying to cross from turkey to greece. at the same time, it is already early morning in indonesia, among the people at the morning prayer there are afghans. country, in this they thought that in the largest muslim country they would finally be safe, but this is not so, an ordinary day in the life of refugees.

a person, his rights and freedoms are the highest value. recognition of the observance of the protection of the rights and freedoms of man and citizen, the duty of the state. the bearer of sovereignty and the only one. what else is being discussed in russia this week human rights defenders, lawyers and civil activists will tell you in the program: a person has a right. in my opinion, radio liberty is a very important source for the ukrainian audience, despite the fact that ukraine has a lot of great media, radio liberty performs an important function, we have a lot of resources to in order to inform people in ukraine and therefore the truth about what is happening in the occupied territories, thanks to our resources, thanks to our expertise, which in its own way is unique in many ways for the ukrainian rink, fragments click on the table

a lot, it doesn’t happen at all. there are enough good professional journalists, unfortunately, today we have to admit that there are a lot of actors who want to oppose journalists who want to ruin their work professionally, now for some reason most of all we remember the protests that took place in russia after alexey returned there navalny, we were sitting in the control room in the studio and there was some feeling:

let every day, every day be ours, you are the whole family, this was the first place that sheltered us during our migration. the third bell, after thunder in silence, you will tell the clouds, everything you know about me, i from a pack of cigarettes and a drawing on the window, i will send you greetings, mother of the crying light,

those in conflict with ... the parties will try to conclude local agreements on the evacuation from the besieged or surrounded zone of the wounded sick, disabled, elderly, children and women in labor on the passage into this zone of ministers of all faiths, medical personnel and medical equipment.

i am a contract soldier, sat with friends, drinking, well, you know, one word led to another, then these buyers arrived, or whatever, well, the officers, well, and they started looking at us, well, who, well , who was healthier, it turns out you were selected for the infantry and... where were you transferred to, what task did they give you? they didn't give us any task, we just had to dig dugouts.
