She stands 52 meters tall: six meters taller than the famous symbol of the United States. She weighs 8000 tons. The Guinness Book of Records called her the tallest sculpture in the world at the time of construction. Two hundred steps, symbolizing the 200 days of the Battle of Stalingrad, lead from the bottom of the hill to the monument. She is Russia's symbol of victory! The Motherland calls on RT!

Time to head off the beaten track to some more of Russia's hidden corners, in Close Up. Today we take you to a remote settlement in the Ural mountains which boasts a headline-grabbing name. The village of 'Newspaper', where it seems time has stood still for almost a century, is as remote as it gets. RT's Tom Barton went to find out for himself.

Now, we're in for some adventurous discoveries, as we take you on a trip to another corner of the largest country in the world, in our Russia Close Up series. Today we travel to the city of Yekaterinburg, which is located at the foot of the Ural mountains dividing Europe and Asia. The mineral-rich mountains have made the region a massive center for metal manufacture. And as RT's Tom Barton discovered, for many locals it's more than a profession - it's a passion.

Medvedev Repeats Warning of Thermonuclear War Obama Must Be Removed From Office Now! Share this video! Upload! On the eve of his trip to the United States, where he will meet with President Barack Obama, Russian Prime Minister Dmitri Medvedev delivered an unequivocal message to Obama and his NATO cohorts, who are threatening to intervene with regime-change operations in Syria, Iran, and elsewhere: Such actions can lead to "full-scale wars, even with nuclear weapons." Medvedev's warning, delivered at an International Legal Forum in St. Petersburg, comes in the wake of similar warnings issued May 3 by Russian Chief of Staff Nikolai Makarov, that the US-NATO policy of Ballistic Missile Defense in Europe could lead to a Russian pre-emptive strike, and by Medvedev himself last November. The Russians are making it clear: attacks on national sovereignty will not be tolerated. Yet President Barack Obama, operating under the thumb of the British imperial strategy to crush all national sovereignty, has stuck to his provocative policy, pressing forward against Syria, Iran, and Russia itself. Thus, unless Barack Obama is removed from office, by Constitutional means, the world is headed toward thermonuclear war. No, the Russians are not bluffing; they are deadly serious. The question is: are we? Can we face the reality that the exchange of nuclear weapons will likely exterminate all life on this planet? Can we fail to act when not only our family and posterity, but all civilization ... Теги:ObamaWarwithRussiaPutinWw3NewswikiintelnewsBreakingWarning
"Russia is starting to deploy their air defence systems near the boarders confronting NATO. Every-bodies gearing up for the war. Now here's where it gets ugly... Russian general staff head Nikolai Makarov said today that Russia's arm forces would be within their full rights to use nuclear weapons if any threats to the integrity of the country arise. That is a very clear message. Russia is sending a very clear signal that the United States and Europe must stop attacking and invading every country Israel tells them to or they risk an all out nuclear war. Now, our leadership and Israel's leadership, they're listening to their imaginary playmate up on the clouds and they've got their own little bunkers built deep underground and filled with all kinds of food and blueray disc's, and books, and all kinds of casual entertainments and probably a lot of really good drugs, and some really cute boys and really cute girls, and if they make a mistake they'll just say, "oh well!" and they'll slam the door and they'll come out in a couple of years... But you and I and the people down the street and people at your office, people at your schools, we're on the verge of an absolute nightmare scenario."
