Its 9 00 in the morning in singapore, 1am in london and 8pm in washington where the us house of representatives is set to vote later on wednesday on whether to impeach donald trump. Its over claims that he threatened to withhold military aid from ukraine unless it investigated his leading democratic rival in next years president ial election joe biden and his son. In a letter to the house speaker, nancy pelosi, mr trump called the impeachment process an illegal, partisan attempted coup, that will, based on recent sentiment, badly fail at the voting booth. The democrat controlled house is expected to vote in favour, which would lead to a trial in the senate, probably in january. Heres the president speaking earlier. This has been a total sham from the beginning. Everybody knows it. Ive never seen the Republican Party so united. We got, as you know, 100 of the vote. I believe the senate is equally as well united. I watched Mitch Mcconnell this morning, i watched numerous people last nigh
Teacher, that is, popularizer, i know, when i was at school, i remember, we. Came to yekaterinburg, went to the faculty of philosophy, and we attended a lecture about engels, and i remember, this is what the teacher said, that marx was really a thinker, and englis, he is such a popularizer, and somehow this thought stuck in my head, and not in the sense that i compare myself with engels, but i understand that i am a popularizer, i can find contact from the audience, while i have this, i understand that it could go away tomorrow, because as you know very well, every time you enter the audience its like anew, and you dont understand whether this lecture will work or not, in fact, i got this turn and as for my current main obedience , forgive me, im using this word, well in some sense, this is the case, thats how i feel about it i probably was needed , i was given such an honor, they called me, i came , that is, you didnt ask for it, i didnt ask for it, i didnt go, i didnt go because this
Circulation and their fascination, yes that society lives by its own laws, the church lives by its own laws, literature still lives by some of its own laws, here is the dialogue things dont always work out well between them, so what is your feeling from this world of the church, what is it like . Well, you know, i, of course, had very little encounter with Church Bureaucracy until the moment when i. In church and i would say that rather the word bureaucrat, which for me in 2009 was on the verge of such an abusive and dismissive word, i for example clearly i fully understand now that a healthy, highquality bureaucracy is very important in the state, in the church, anywhere, i think i understand its limits, i understand, so to speak, what can be achieved through bureaucratic means, well, i dont understand everything, but somewhere , yes, what can be achieved, what cannot, at the same time.

Not very clear, well, you can remember the wonderful book of archimandrite tikhon, but not the holy saints, which in many ways, yes, thanks to its circulation and its it opened up the fascination of people, yes, by translating it into many foreign languages, it opened up the world of the church a little to people, but still, historically in russia it turned out this way , yes, that society lives by its own laws, the church lives by its own laws, literature by some other laws lives by its own law, but the dialogue between them does not alwa
Are completely. Where, where the democrats dominate, but in general mitch mccon, the leader of the republicans, is ready for a bipartisan deal ; as we know, there are fierce debates in the lower house, where they do not want to allocate additional money to us foreign programs, where they want to make cuts. Pentagon, that is , there such radical things sound like for example, to reduce the salary of the head of the pentagon to one dollar, well, this does not fit into any framework at all, right, well, that is , these people, in fact, they are ready to stand until the last, as far as i know, american departments are already preparing to stop programs, freeze them for about 2 weeks, they wont be able to come to an agreement before that, for those of our viewers who dont understand what it means to close the american government, this doesnt mean that they will literally put locks on the offices and everyone will be fired, this a little more complicated, right . Yes, yes, absolutely right,
