said he was, but still look not around because it was mixed up. and it's really easy to prove this. not only was drafting figures, but also in a completely practical level. we've seen 4 units been started up in the u. a, in a very russia friendly country, we've seen 36 reactors launched in china over the past decades and new capacities built in india in the instance who is the, as a with wooster, kia egypt, bangladesh, and many other of our partners are embracing nuclear technology. a lot of there's a growth point there you see me, there's a growth point in nuclear technology. there's a growth point in the supply of our entire fuel cycle. we're 2nd in uranium reserve is both russian. russ adam, because we have all of the rushes need to their technology at ross out. and so we're setting the reserves 3rd and extraction 3rd in nuclear fuel fabrication and 1st and uranium enrichment. and we're an undisputed leader here much with 35 percent of the uranium or enrichment market which. so using a sports analogy,

and if you take a look at the teams standards, you'll see that we are the absolute leader, not only in the export of nuclear power plants, but also in the nuclear fuel cycle. and since all this runs within our circuit, we're the leader there. it's obvious that our costs and quality are optimal. so we'll just have to wait and see how various countries are going to transition from political declarations to practical solutions. because restricting ross out them today, primarily deals a serious blow to the cost of their own nuclear projects. however, it won't deter us and the lease as the markets of russian friendly countries that's more comfortable for us and they are expand. i mean, then let's go for the last, you know, move up closer. i was most of them. well, i had a question about your possible response to actions taken by in friendly countries. but given the growth and expansion you've talked about, i have another question. is there a need for a response to an friendly countries as actions? you also don't a construction of the product. so what is a luggage ross?

adam is a state corporation. we help to implement the policies of the russian government, which are broadly defined by the president of the russian federation. as president clinton has said that russia will never use economic leverage to blackmail other countries. junior, we're a sovereign country when it comes to fulfilling our obligations, just as when it comes to serving russian interests. if our government makes certain decisions, we is a state corporation will obviously comply with them right. however, at this moment, we find it extremely important to demonstrate that we are honoring our obligations even in spite of certain decisions made later and the items here. the nuances i'm talking about in the nuclear industry is remarkably uni. first off, our projects are very long term. last year for instance, we marked the 50th anniversary of our cooperation with friends. but look how much has happened over those 50 years since the soviet union was locked in the cold war

with the west, then it collapse. we had a period of turbulence in the 19 ninety's. there's the present day, russian agenda, and yet throughout those 50 years just we've been meticulously scrupulously new affiliate our obligations to the french republic and french businesses. the same applies to other countries, the average construction time for a big nuclear power plant is 10 years. it'd been operates for an average of a 100 years. that's why we think of different timeframe and encourage our partners to do the same thing. perhaps more importantly, this is the most sensitive area of international relations. the nuclear industry is important for the safety and security, not only of nuclear facilities, but of a country as a whole, including the issue of non proliferation. and it's very dangerous to hold hostage to transient political interest, a political, a lease, which may be wiped off by the course of history tomorrow. we have never to be remembered again, you know, while these long term ties and principles of safety and sureties which have been

established over several generations, may be a road. and that's why it's important for us to both feel our current legal obligations. and especially to reaffirm the principles that ross out them guarantees a 100 percent safety and security in all the areas where it operates is up. let's look here the product. when we finish and do what you've done that you did. i did. you did the director general of the i a e a has recently said he would warn against this point of good nuclear energy against bad nuclear energy because it would not be profitable to the market, which it's not in the interest of marketing purchasing. so, but my question is, what do these attempts to differentiate between good and bad nuclear energy affect your expansion? and i'd also like to know if the market agrees with gross hello swap, it was a commercial particularly was the plaintiff. i literally see. and that's a great question here you seem to be quoting raphael grocery stations at the nuclear energy summit in europe. let's not forget the raphael visited russia just

before the summit, or healed substantial talks covering current issues, including this approach and p, p in the future development of our cooperation june, including the 4th generation of nuclear energy and cross sale grossi awesome. it was a lot of air pollution when they discussed those areas. the idea of voice by gross teams, which had to do not just with a fuel cycle with a nuclear industry as a whole, which was very clearly outlined to my opinion, was that there shouldn't be any political ping pong as you put a any division into good and bad energy, nor any attempts to put one countries nuclear industry against another one. that's exactly the view we a spouse, there is no good or bad enter. so there's a safe and professional way of doing nuclear energy, which should be promoted throughout the world. and there are certain approaches to nuclear energy which can lead us to an impasse due to political fetishize. outdated monitors about who's good and who's bad. and so uh, we don't even in want to go there with all our supplies or savings or mall. our

facilities are fully transparent, which is one of our advantages. when we launch the construction of an n t p or start supplies to a foreign country, we engage with the leads of the country such as journalists and peas, technical experts, and bring them to our existing and p p. s as to our seats and enterprises to show them how it all works in russia. mature. that's the nuclear power industry. we'd like to foster defeats the irony of your question in the current situation as a whole is perhaps as follows. on the one hand grocery is a very brave man for saying these things in brussels, in the heart of the little workforce on the other. it's really so trivial and self evident. there's how can you left a political ambitions of this or that click the side, the security of a whole cotton and the future of nuclear energy for a whole planet. yeah, you can't get, that would be a huge mistake. on the one hand, we're seeing in groceries praises for saying that out loud and brussels on the

other. we understand that it's in plain common sense. it's common sense to treat the development and safety of global nuclear energy as a separate area and tarnished by political entry. and i believe the i a e is general director of the set this agenda for many years to come from within the group. i just didn't get the on the so in the shuffle plus the start doing up to sure the current spot price and the natural uranium market stands at around a $100.00 usd a pounds with any literacy book to give our viewers some background. it was a quarter of that $25.00 usd a pound in 2022. we do expect this upward trend in prices to continue. and to what extent does that affect the energy prices for consumer is not sell it made. it leads to somebody's with more with me for cayden. the last bullshit was we, i don't know if you meant to do that. that's your last question. surface back to your 1st. let's start with good news. first, you're talking about spot prices, which applies to contract is that are being concluded at the present moment. it is

with we, however, rely on long term contract prices, which currently stand at around $70.00 to $75.00 per pound and are not fluctuating to disastrously, nor is true. this bonds price is 1st linked the $100.00 threshold and then exceeded it for coming back to route $85.00 to $80.00 per pound. that's why because washington incidents impossible limitations in the future. some for new people heard about coming to restrictions and started buying and stock piling at a loss to them to their economies and their technological cycles to keep the demand drives up prices to the people, forced out huge sums we made money. he is why one should think before saying seamlessly, once you think, 1st of the vin, actually yeah. such things do not destroy supply chains which have been established over many years and mess up optimized cost calculations, etc. they also create panic in the market. supports people are scrambling summer losing summer regime in process, and the suppliers always make money. so it was

a situation where an attempt to say bad things about us, ultimately lead to a friend's eats. and since we always stay calm, we were able to make a little more money to us, the market loss as a whole different. let's be honest about that. many of our partners, lots of money, because someone in washington was itching to announce future restrictions against russia. and that's how it always will be. so we rely on mid term contracts, which are spread over time. and we encourage the international community to do long term planning in a confession and to minimize the influence of political signals and slogans on the implementation of carefully considered projects in the nuclear industry. not a piece was total. nothing like save games, but she was run by sure. thank you so much. well, the best of luck to you and ross side them, but also how people explain to thank you. are they lighter than $25.00? you're on of us. so the nato attacks in fully used to solve it, we saw that with a,

just as soon as we pulled the on the events at the time, i'm who witnessed this own eyes, the horrors of the bombing campaign. that interview info is up the the when you give them your brushing them. uh for reasons unknown to me we did not have a news crew on the ground when the bombing of yugoslavia began. more precisely, the correspondent who was there and whose film crew left on the last flight from belgrade after which all the airports in yugoslavia were closed. when all of the airports closed management passed me was somehow finding another way to get there. i flew to budapest with the help of the russian embassy a day later, the field crew and i found ourselves in a small town on the border of hungry and yugoslavia. we managed to cross the border

checkpoint early in the morning, around 5, a lose so interesting. the border checkpoint was completely empty except for the guards. when i handed over my passport to the goose lab, border guard, i heard someone come up behind me. i turned around and saw your statute, a russian rock musicians and uri costs free on from the band quino, as well as 2 or 3 other people who are catching up to us. it turns out that they were also going to belgrade, and were planning to participate in a rock concert called for peace or something like that. we cross the border and accepted the offer to travel together. we drove to the nearest town by bus, but after that, we decided not to go on because we were warned that it was very dangerous. very intense bombardments had already begun. at that point. i had to find a small hugo car as i remember, it looked just like a little box. we all crammed ourselves into it. this one courageous yugoslav man drove us, but at some point we also stopped and said that we should not go any further

because they were bombing all the time. we took a break somewhere nearby in some local village. at night we moved to the area of nova side city crossing the bridge of the new river early in the morning. of 5 or 6 am, we made it into belgrade. on the way, our driver who is listening to the radio said that we were lucky to have managed to cross the bridge, which is far as i remember was named after marshal burrows tito. this bridge had been ball on that very morning on april 1st. all the bridges in belgrade were bombed. it was, i think, the 8 days since the bombing started, and all the bridge over the nude were destroyed. these were my 1st impressions. and then my work as a reporter began. i worked for the news program, b, g t, r k, and all russian radio and tv company. i stayed there for 3 weeks before another news crew replaced us. but after a while, our return to yugoslavia, again, was more than a 1000 nato airplanes participated in the bombing of bell great. we heard the explosions and went out on the ground to documented. we came to this one place and

saw destroyed houses, ruined buildings. they made sure to bomb all the infrastructure 1st. over the 70 plus days, these $1008.00 aware plains bombed almost all of yugoslavia. they destroyed the entire countries infrastructure. bridge is power plants, military facilities, all civilian infrastructure. we heard all of it after a while, we would go over with the fires, were there were firefighters, people running around absolutely distraught and unsettled across as is good. kind of the serbs react. we really have to give the service credit here. this wasn't new to them. before that, there was the war in bosnia and herzegovina. many of them were a part of it, or had family there. that is, the war had already been cemented in the serbian cultural code. i can't say there was any confusion, but yes, there was bewilderment and disappointment. disappointment might not be the right word here. they thought yes, with god's help, we will win or we will survive. that's what the serbs said to us. and by the way,

the attitude towards russians was good for the service, realize that they were being born, that their country, their sovereign state, had been attacked by such a fierce coalition. the north atlantic alliance. they understood that they were being squeezed. they were putting the pressure on them and see before that there was a long period a long time when they were just cots and threats like we will start bombing, you and people apparently just got used to everything. and then when it happens when it actually starts, what are you going to do? we either leave the country or you stay and hold on one another and i ended up in pristina in kosovo, in january of 1998. that is 2 months before active hostilities began, i was there because my friends and colleagues from re and over student bell grade told me that western countries, newspapers, magazines, were all call in pristina in kosovo, the last hot spot in europe. they said something could happen. their western journalist wrote that there were some kind of genocide of ethnic albanians. there

was generally a terrible situation there and that's how i imagined it. but when i got there, that's not what i found. i arrived in 70, christina, a beautiful town with valleys in hills and albanian houses around it albanian boys hung portraits of some municipal politicians on st. table's, probably serbian politicians. here's a very important detail that i remember. this place was painted as the diabolical scene of the extermination of the albany and population. had serbian traffic cops on the streets of cnn standing there without any service weapons. not only did they not have machine guns, they didn't even have pistols or per tons. they were wearing white arm bands, the serbian police officers regulating all the traffic in the super hot spots. as western journalists put it, we're wearing white arm bands. i think this says that the law enforcement forces of serbia, yugoslavia did not feel any danger. and if there was no danger,

what was there to talk about? here's another example with abraham real gove a right or a member of the western pen club. she was the ethnic albanian and coast of our spiritual leader. his office was located in the center for stina press conferences were constantly being held there. it was widely known that he was the head of the civilian unit of the k, a. the kosovo liberation army. how can we talk about some kind of genocide if the leader of the kosovar, albanians is sitting in the center of christina, with serbian policeman nearby wearing white arm bands without any service weapons? not feeling any danger and simply regulating traffic. when albanian boys are plastering portraits of some municipal politicians and officials over their bedside tables was an absolutely peaceful situation in was to put all that changed abruptly . i flew there to yugoslavia 2 months later in march of 1998. and the situation had changed dramatically. what happened there was the following. there was

a village where a famous yugoslav mafioso lived. everyone knew about them a big gun barren. they said that there was a lot of drug sales coming from albania and macedonia. he and his relatives lived in the village along with hundreds of other people in security. albanians generally have large families. he lived in a place where there were impregnable walls, a real fortified area. and then at some point in march of 1998 the serbian police, at that time the only police in kosovo were serbian. there were no special forces, no troops, there was nothing. the serbian police said that something that happened after which they were told that within 24 hours he must surrender to the authorities. hanover's weapons, he had automatic weapons or the police would go and confiscate them and choose. and so there was a sweep she would not give up. the authorities brought in motor shots were fired, and then a special task for storm to compound. and these people were arrested, there was a shoot out and several people were killed. after that, all of a sudden,

12 camera crews, from the american associated press agency and 8 reuters cameras appeared out of nowhere in pristina. i talked to one of the reuters correspondence back, then god rest his soul. his name was terrace prostitute. he was killed in a rack, a very famous photographer. he said to me then the dean. this is not a war between the cost of ours and the serbs. this is our fight. it's a medium war between the americans and the anglo saxons. that is between reuters and ape. well then the task was to prove who was more successful, a spreading these images of ethnic cleansing. but there was no ethnic cleansing, so everyone was exhausting themselves and doing as much as they could for. for example, a reuters correspondence shared a video with me. we watched it and i saw myself of some kind of countryside with a large crowd of l. damian's mostly women, an old man holding children in their arms, dragging them along and running and running, running somewhere. i asked, while i was watching the footage, why don't they have any belongings or anything at all?

the rotors corresponded, laughed and said, you know, they were actually running to watch some tv show. the lights had gone out and they ran over to a nearby village to watch the latest episode of some albanian tv series. and of course the story they broadcasted was the survey and special forces have carried out a sweep. albanians are fleeing and horror from this village, somewhere towards greater albania. that's one of the examples. i'm sure i remember very clearly when natal bond, the chinese embassy. i cannot speak to how deliberate that attack was. but i do not think they deliberately struck the tv center in belgrade. i friends working there with whom i collaborated during satellite broadcast. the entire crew died at the bill grade tv center, 15 or 16 people, as well as our colleagues at the chinese embassy to after 25 years. i can say that western journalist clearly took it at face value that there serves these terrible serves. and that, that place is evil. and there are also these poor,

innocent albanians, but you see our colleagues lived at the casino hotel, a huge serbian hotel that was located downtown, and also at the park hotel which was smaller. the reuters news crew lived there. he used to be a serbian hotel, they dined at serbian restaurants, got their hair cut by, serves, drink, wine and serving coffee's. they saw that there were not even any troops there. they understood the coast of all of my talk here in tokyo, which by the way translates as church land is the home of serbian coast of ours. in general that church land has 300 orthodox monasteries on it. 300 orthodox monasteries, didn't they realize that they understood all of this and handled it rather cynically 0 in, in on their agenda. i was there when reuters was editing their material. i saw how people can indicated that there was a producer there, gwen this when you would go to the pristine, the hotel, you would see him. there was 6 or 7 phones in front of him. he was always writing

something down, responding to someone, and then he would go out and get the pictures or video. this of course was done for money so that the cost of ours could film some sort of exclusive, some hors d'oeuvres, austin, nicole, the agenda was handled very cynically. this probably sounds terrible in light of what happened, but this was an information more between 2 agencies. the british reuters and the american ape to see who could get more exclusives and more shocking material that painted the serves as demons who will demonize them better. who will be more successful at showing that obedience are wonderful guys in general, because the serbs are demonic and they tried to destroy them altogether. they kept saying, genocide, ethnic cleansing. but as soon as we arrived, we saw a press conference for the spiritual leader of the obedience with his own pen club in the center of christina, where this assembly of journalists were always gathered, listening to him speak. by the way, i was surprised by the patients of the yugoslav authorities in slow, but i'm the last of which at the time who allowed all of this?

honestly, it's hard for me to imagine that when the tv center in belgrade was here, i was in moscow. i returned in early may in the very night when the chinese embassy was bombed. what can i say? i knew 2 or 3 of the people who were killed there. they had previously helped us by sending news material. what did they have to do with anything? but nato's logic is understandable. it's necessary to destroy everything. all the words that do not correlate with the western agenda. they had to destroy everything, not just the bridges, but also the metaphysical spiritual principles. it was necessary to destroy it, to make it easier to take on the serbs for the little, sir, he loved rav constantly talks about this. who came up with these rules that we need to follow. who is the author of these rules? a few days before the bombing began, there was a meeting and paris negotiations were held with the participation of yugoslavia, and they offered to withdraw all law enforcement from kosovo. the police who stood in white arm bands,

then they were ordered to allow natal forces to move freely throughout yugoslavia. what do you think? sure, there is the sovereign state in a for an army. what should the reaction be? the bombing began without the approval of the un security council. it was a legal, it was in line with the rules that someone in the anglo saxon world came up with. i don't really want to think about it against the background of what happened. there was an official figure quoted by the west of some 200000 serves who fled the region where they have 300 ancient monasteries. as far as i know, 300000 refugees left, they were forced to leave this place where as they say, their ancestors also lived and came from. it turned out that there was this whole region of kosovo and natasha, which everyone understood to be orthodox, are being land. and for some reason they took it and pushed them aside for all being the albanians in toronto officially consider this to be their enclave. that this is their territory, it's uncomfortable to remember. and how about libya?

do you remember iraq much? they also try to forget the afghans the west clearly handled. it's passed through the media. it's task of demonizing. the service across the front line several times will be in there. i had a film crew, we repeatedly crossover to the albanian side. talked with these guys in green bandanas. communication was so, so because one day we were taken to the mountains and we were detained. how do we get detained? we were filming something in standing up on the mountain side. then these guys jumped out at us with weapons and machine guns. they put us in the car and told us to follow them. one of their cars was in front of me. the 2nd one was behind me. unfortunately, we were not moving in the direction from which we came from. that is the only road which led towards pristina, but they took us up the mountains. there were these plugs up there, all of them armed. they stood in front of my car and pointed at me with their automatic rifles pushing me to park at the very edge of the cliff. what was i supposed to do?

i parked on the very edge of the best and the correspondence of radio, russia, your usher pole of asked me vatican. what do you think? i said, what can i think we're finished? they stood in front of us. it was clear that they were going to shoot and the car would fall down the cliffs and we would just have gone missing. and we heard a lot of similar stories that happened in many wars. but then at some point the car drove up, a kid jumped out of an old mercedes, some very young kid and began to explain something to them and i'll be in in. and then they changed their mind. their headquarters had changed its mind before that we had been interrogated their headquarters for 2 hours. they looked at their passports in their documents and accused us of being spies and so on. we drove back, they even gave us back our camera and told us we don't want to see you anymore. one word and you'll be finished with. that was just one of our encounters later when i would go over to the other side. i took different roads. i invited the dean of the faculty of russian language and literature and ethnic albany and professor shop on

how to from the university of christina, shaun holt. he was one of the leading academics and teachers at the university of christine at the time. and he was an ethnic albany and he worked with us as a translator and a guide. we went to a lot of places with him. we went to his house, we went to albany and restaurants. he told us all about it. i'll be in eons. unfortunately, on one of the trips after left, the next news crew were detained together with siobhan hotel. my colleagues were released after interrogations, but he was executed to a criminal case was opened by interpol, but he was never found to insurance. i visited his family later on and brought them some financial help from us. but in general, they still don't know what happened to him. they knew that he had been executed by the kosovo liberation army. i'm talking about this because when they asked me about the obedience that were allegedly killed there, i can only speak about now benny, and who's killed by albany and thugs, just for working with russian journalist and speaking russian. he was executed at the beginning of june on the 11th or 12th of june of 1999. everyone already knew

that the k 4 forces were coming. that is the forces for kosovo. these were international forces controlled by nato. we were told about it the night before at our hotel by the waiters and cleaners who works there. somebody at reception also warned us they showed us this. meaning that we were finished. we left the hotel immediately to stay at a different place, but our return to the hotel in the morning. i told myself i had work to do. it was crazy. it reminds me of what we recently saw in the roadsides here in armenia. the roads were full of cars, tractors, and all kinds of old vehicles. people were trying to get to serbia to leave kosovo . there, you could seek refuge of one of the school gymnasiums. there were hundreds of people with children who were there trying to spend the night because they left their villages. they settled down there to spend the night and to try to figure out where to go and how to move forward. there was an absolute horror, of course this actually looked like ethnic cleansing,

only it was ethnic cleansing by the international k for forces under natal control against the serbian population to. when i think about that time, i remember shopping, hotel you drinking at and i'll be any and restaurant dancing there with our cameraman, and with the local women and his friend who was the boss of the cafe. i remembered the people, their wonderful opinions, wonderful people, as we say, they got caught in the cross hairs of the west agenda. it said they needed to fight to mess everything up on this little bluer. they'll come across the ocean and destroy everything here. i think about that and it, it makes me very sad for me the the what else seemed wrong?

just don't you have to see power and engagement equals the trail. when so many fund themselves will support. we choose to look for common ground, the car acceptance and i'm here to plan with you. whatever you do. do not watch my new show seriously. why watch something that's so different opinions that he won't get anywhere else. welcome to please or do you have the state department c i a weapons, bankers, multi 1000000000 dollar corporations. choose your fax for you. go ahead. change and whatever you do. don't my show stay main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called stretching time, but again, it's not, we don't want to watch it because it might just change the way you

the, you know, but what we are interested in this may be an event in a series of with them by those who have been quite pressure since 2004 at the hands of the new york process present. it makes it clear that friday tetra sac is consistent with new planning and tactics. so suppose advise allied america provided inputs inside source. it is fine to whitewash to lead to link to customer service wherever rested while living in bashfully crane. and buddha washington made it a priority to observe the boob tube and shift the blame on. so i system find a russian. those are the say the include in text is for me.
