| 0:00.0 | Good evening. The show tonight begins in Ukraine. Well, in Eurasia, about Ukraine, speaking with Anato Levin, who's traveling in Paris. |
| 0:13.1 | Ukraine is the war that wears down Europe for years, causes the energy shortages, the scrambling, the price rises, the slowing of the |
| 0:23.3 | economy, especially Germany. And yet, we now have a situation where Ukraine cannot be solved |
| 0:30.2 | until Russia is solved, and Russia cannot be solved until NATO and the United States work out |

| 1:51.0 | In addition, you don't need five tanks you need one. |
| 1:53.7 | Can they organize their defense industry around producing one for all? |
| 1:59.6 | Anatole again believes unlikely. |
