About childhood years and youth Margarita Simonyan

The biography of the Simonyan family, if viewed in several generations, covers the territory from the former Sverdlovsk (now Yekaterinburg) to the Crimean Peninsula. The great-grandmother and the great-grandfather Margarita in pre-revolutionary time fled to the Crimea, fleeing from Turkish genocide. Sad, the new homeland prepared the family of a patient: the next generation of Simonyanov in 1944 was repressed and exist in Sverdlovsk despite the fact that the head of the family was held all the great domestic. The father of our heroine was born in Sverdlovsk, Simon Sarkisovich, his parents decided to move from Sverdlovsk to Krasnodar after the war. In Krasnodar, Simon met the future wife, they got married, they had two daughters - Margarita and Alice.

Oh, these streets are the times of the USSR, who wearing the names of great writers! Well, why if Pushkin's street is necessarily central, with solid "heights", and when Gogol or Chekhov - slums for the poor? Just on such a Gogol Street in Krasnodar, a childhood was held: "Italian" courtyards with a large balcony-veranda on a lot of apartments, in the common kitchen - every hostess has a small tile with its gas cylinder. From the water pipeline - only a drain hatch next to the kitchen, the toilet is "cesspool" with arriving once a month by the associates. And the mother's mother rita wore water on with rigorous ladders from the column ... Dad was engaged in the repair of electronic equipment, especially he was famous for the city as a master of refrigerators, Mom traded in the market.

Despite the fact that in the family, the money was not frankly "not found" (and what thousands could earn a master of refrigerators or the saleswoman of flowers in the USSR!), Rita and younger sister Alice Parents tried to indulge: Girls have always been elegant dresses and good toys. But the living conditions, no matter how try, left much to be desired, and Margarita already then gave themselves an oath: will learn, then work so that there is a good apartment with gas, hot water, good furniture. When the older girl in the Simonyan family was ten years old, the parents finally received separate accommodation in the new city microdistrict.

Already in children's garden Rita learned to read fluid, and often she arranged "fabulous chiks" in his group: the rest of the children, the teacher seated in the circle, and Margarita read with the expression of a fairy tale. To school (the father insisted) the girl went not in a simple, but with an in-depth study of English, because in an ordinary it would be boring to learn: she was not only free to read, but also knew math maths. Dad and Mom Rita proudly boasted the neighbors that her daughter brings some "five" in the diary, especially her teachers of the Russian language (the school was not only with the additional study of English, but also the Russian-speaking).

The 1995th year in the country of Soviets is the time for the smallest of the raised "iron curtain", which closed several generations born in the USSR from the rest of the world. Gorbachevskaya Spring reflected in Soviet schools: the exchange of children's delegations between Soviet Union and USA. In one of these delegations, Rita Simonyan got - she went to the States for study and accommodation in the American family. Until now, Margarita supports warm relationship with the family from New Hampshire, and in total she stayed in the US for almost two years and returned to Krasnodar to the graduation exams of his native school. All exams were handed over to "excellent," Margarita became the only "medalist" in class.

Student and first journalistic experience

Rita Parents are purebred Armenians, so in passports in the daughters in the "nationality" column "Armenian" recorded. By the way, the father and mother journalist talked on different dialects of the native language, but for elder daughter native became Russian - she went to Russian school, and in such schools, other languages \u200b\u200bwere taught "Inc." in soviet time. But the girl, fluently owning Russian and English, was easily released after school in Krasnodar University at the Faculty of Journalism.

In the first year of the University, Margarita tried herself in poetry and published a collection of own poems in a small local publishing house. The collection was instantly excreted, people began to talk about a talented girl, and these conversations reached the leadership of the Krasnodar TV channel. Just on the canal were looking for new, fresh ideas, and decided to take interviews in the student-poetess. The plot about Margarita Simonyan is the first appearance of the future "star" of the media on television screens - became the start of the whole further career of a young journalist. "Journalists" - because Rita took the opportunity and asked to take it to an internship, and now she is already the leading journalist of the Krasnodar television company.

Krasnodar was at that time the largest in the south of Russia, but if neither twist - the channels were unintelligible, local broadcasting. And the ambitions and energy among Margarita are already "shook", and it applies to work in a "hot point", specifically in Chechnya. A nineteen-year-old fragile girl rides in Chechnya for ten days - she did not even tell her parents about it, fear of their fright. Only seeing her daughter on TV in the news, Dad and Mom found out that Rita literally told about the events in Chechnya. Behind the series of these reports, Simonyan's correspondent received a reward "For Professional Courage" and the Order of Friendship. Upon returning from Chechnya, the girl without a separation from the university enters the school of television skill, where she is led by Vladimir Posner.

Path to "Top" of Russian and International Journalism

The 2000th year for Margarita Simonyan is the post of chief editor of Krasnodar TV channel. But still wanted more, and a year later, a young woman moves to Rostov-on-Don to work there already in the All-Union State Body and Broadcasting Company (a simple correspondent, notice). And again she rushes into the "hot spot": this time there was Abkhazia, they were especially remembered by the audience reports from the Kodori Gorge, where the girl participated in the filming of the clashes of militants with the Russian army. The activity of the Rostov journalist was noticed "at the top", and it is invited to work in Moscow, to the program "News".

Someone will say: "Yes, Just lucky!", But for sure, Vladimir Putin did not accidentally call Margarita to the group of journalists accompanying him during the presidential tour of the country in 2002. Two years later, in September 2004, she rides Beslan: every half an hour in extraordinary news the girl appears on TV and tells the whole country, as the process of the liberation of the hostages is promoted. She flatly refused to offer some moments from their reports (several times she had a voice, she began to cry): People should know the truth, it is impossible to "smooth out"! Later, answering the question whether young journalists should begin a career in the "problem" region, Margarita said categorically: "By no way! It is so hard, so frozo ... the psyche can break! "

2005th: RIA Novosti decided to create new projectcalled "Russia Today". The founders of the project were categorically against the appointment by the head of someone from the "old guard" of journalists. They wanted to come to this post a man with a "not covered" look, who did not see old news, not accustomed to the Soviet standards of conducting news programs. The head of the television channel of the project "Russia Today" was appointed Margarita Simonyan - she with her uncompromising and at the same time "fresh" style of work as it should not be suitable for the position.

The RUSSIA Today project was initially sold in English and should have covered the "official Russian position in the light of various political and public situations in the world" is a fragment of the company's authorized text. Of course, many mastic media workers were claimed to the position of chief editor, and everyone was extremely surprised when the leadership of the leadership "put" a twenty-five-year-old journalist. Yes, it was exactly the "power" appointment, but isn't Margarita with her extensive experience, with the ability to "digest" a huge amount of information with excellent knowledge of English - was she not worthy? "RUSSIA TODAY" as the project began to expand quickly, Arabic and Hispanic version appeared, and again the Glavred - Margarita Simonyan.

What they just did not write an impartial as soon as her name was not "rinsing" when she "iron hand" began to bring new order in the company! Allegedly, she smelled everyone who was unwhanting for her, on ridiculous reasons. Lies clean water: When Margarita came to the company, no one was dismissed, then the many people left, yes, but after the expiration of the first contract (each contract was on the refusal to surprise it personally, that is, that is). No employee who left the "Russia Today" after the expiration of the contract or being dismissed (such, too, were then), was not infringed in terms of characteristics or care payments. And the fact that she has established to the company Iron discipline (up to the fact that employees obliged not to visit social networks During work) - is it minus? "Russia Today" has immediately become the "official shopping" of the government, and in such an organization, the freedom of morals and bad discipline.

Despite almost round-the-clock employment in Russia today, Margarita tried himself in other projects. On the Ren-TV channel under its beginning in the spring of 2011, the analytical program "What is happening?" Was launched. The transmission existed a little longer than six months: too dangerous topics rose in it, too sharply spoke in it both leading and participants - witnesses of "sharp" events in the country. Together with the Georgian Tina Kandelaki Simonyan in 2013 on the NTV, another project opens - a political "female" talk show "Iron Lady", here from there and the nickname went! And at the same time with the closure "What is happening?" (Paradox: the transfer is closed, but they have confidence!) It is invited to the Board of Directors of the First Channel.

Margarita Negruza is called "the third," female "hand" of the President of Russia. She is a member of the National Staff of the president of Vladimir Putin in 2012. From the Public Council on the Affairs of the Central Internal Affairs of Moscow, she quickly goes to the public council again, but at the Russian Foreign Ministry - an incredibly high career takeoff at a woman! In the period from 2005 to 2018 Simonyan - the correspondent most often invited by Putin, accompanying it on trips and during an interview. And when her name announced as registered as a trusted person, Vladimir Putin in the last election, then dissatisfaction with ill-wishers began to be frankly "to stop". Well, she really looks like a "third hand" of our president, but the hand is solid and correct.

Dissatisfaction with its uncompromising and rigidity resulted in the fact that in 2014 Margarita Simonyan was officially denied entry into the territory of Ukraine. Also far from all satisfied with its activities as the head of Mia Russia today, especially after the opening of the French branch in 2018. International Mediagulator Ofcom, for example, does not get tired of accuse "Russia today" and personally Margarita is that "NATO's objective is not reflected on conflict situations In the world "(quote from the Outcoming Publication). And she with humor objects publicly: "You might think that, for example, BBC objectively repelled the position of the Kremlin on these issues ..."

According to the latest data of the financial magazine Forbes Margarita Simonyan - fifty second place in the hundred "most influential women of the world." In Russia, in the same ranking she - at the fifteenth place. In addition to the Order of Friendship in the list of its awards - personal gratitude to the President of the Russian Federation, the Order "For Merit to Fatherland", the Medal of Armenia Movses Horanytsi. Now Margarita Simonyan except Russia today is the chief editor and "subsidiary" of this MIA project - this is the news agency "Sputnik".

Personal life

At twelve years, a decisively configured girl who dreamed of a separate apartment and good work, said to his mother that would never marry never! "Mom even choked his beloved mint tea"I remembered this scene of Margarita. Probably so categorically she thought because "I did not see absolutely happy families," again the words of the journalist. But another quote from her interview: "I was sure that the White Fata turns forever a woman in a scored creature, chained to the kitchen and patiently" digesting "treason of her husband." Almost to thirty years, Margarita did not arise the thoughts to marry, and even more so give birth to children.

In 2012, the "Iron Lady" of Russian television unexpectedly opened the curtain, which closed her personal life. It turned out that she had a personal life: "The common life, ficus and future plans," and this "Ficus" was her colleague, Andrei Great. The overall work similar to the views (Andrew was also famous in the media with uncompromising and rigidity) had to push a couple to marriage, but both were in no hurry to arrange relationships.

And in the same 2012, when margarita and Andrei became aware of the relationship about the relationship, a man broke into her life, "overgrown with all with the ficuses." So the woman then described the appearance of Tigran Keosayan in her destiny (the words were taken from the interview to the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper). Acquaintance took place in Facebook: Someone, introducing a director Keosayan, wrote Margarita that he was admired by her work on TV, especially he was struck by reports from Beslan. "What if a fake, is it noted in Brazil Pedrov (paraphrasing words from the famous comedy)?" - thought Rita, but answered the fan.

The mysterious rejoice was not fake, and hereby: for the correspondence in Facebook, conversations were followed by telephone, the first date was scheduled. "Bid, and so tasty that I wanted to dine. And then quickly everything turned into breakfasts, "more quotes from an interview. "Ficus" named Andrei Blagology was still relevant, Keosoyan - Beauty Wife Alena Khmelnitskaya ... "We tried to stop relationships with Tigran - did not want to do with close to you. Specially swear, parted. The first time parting was lasting a day, last - twenty minutes, "again the words of Margarita.

Rita and Tigran did not plan to immediately "figure out" offspring, although both were far from young. But "despite all the precautions" (according to the recognition of a woman), she soon learned what would be a mother. This is how she told about her feelings in that period: "I sobbed, as I learned, three months ..." I went down "the threat of miscarriages, the doctors insisted at the hospital and in the treatment of hormones." Trusting God, having passed a terrible period of toxicosis and several hospitalizations, Margarita gave birth to Meriash's daughter. Month decret, and a woman goes to work, and after another five months - a new pregnancy! When Bagrat was born, the journalist did not promise a day: "A son of grandmother and a direct move to work took from the maternity hospital: I just managed to check the Accounts Chamber."

Now, judging by the pictures on social networks and on the behavior of Rita and its civilian husband Keosayan, they are absolutely happy. They officially did not form relationships, and it causes a considerable surprise among friends. The couple explains that Armenians have a normal phenomenon: more than half of the peers of their parents, for example, live together happily without stamps in the passport. Children Margarita and Tigran from Early years receive great education, parents invited teachers for drawing and foreign languages, music and yoga. Mariana is fond of dancing, Tigran - Thai boxing.

Such a tough, "iron" on TV, Margarita in life is very educated and "plastic" woman. She managed to make friends with the former wife Tigran, Alena Khmelnitsky. Women meet, organize holidays together for children. On the Internet there are their joint photos, signed by "high relationships", where Margarita and Alena stand hugging as good friends. Tigran's current wife says about Alain: "She is phenomenal - kind, smart, and what beauty! She is happy (eat new husband, Sasha), I am happy, thank God we have nothing to share. "

Margarita Simonyan first did not believe that it was really keosayan. She saw him on TV in a culinary show, where he was preparing the scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Margarita answered him, exchanged phones, met, bought. They lunch, apparently, so tasty that I still wanted to dare. Yes, and dinner. Gradually overgrown with common topics, interests, friends, some projects.

« And suddenly it turned out that it is impossible to live without each other - that you need to see every day, to correspond every minute, keep hands, even when not near"Remembers Simonyan.

« In general, all the most beautiful in my life literally falls from the sky. And then what long and hard work, or does not happen at all, or happens when it is no longer necessary"Adds a journalist. Her career is the position of the Commander of the International TV Channel and the Chief Information Agency of the country - also emerged unexpectedly. She never sought to become big chief, even vice versa. I always wanted to write books, since childhood, how much I remember.

Tigran Keosayan taught Margarita to write scripts. Now in traffic jams and at night she writes the scripts of films, serials sometimes under their name, sometimes under the pseudonym. So Simonyan relaxes. " Not to mention that for this very well pay - exactly more than my salary on Russia Today"Specifies the elect Keosayan.

She writes not only for Tigran. With him together they made three series and just removed the movies. Their comedy "Sea. The mountains. Keramzit "successfully passed on the first channel. In this December, on the NTV - the premiere of the psychological thriller "Actress", the other work, which they created together with Tigran and Alena Khmelnitsky.

Margarita wrote a scenario, Tigran took off, and Alena played one of the main women's roles. For their trio, the whole group watched wary and admiring themselves as people succeeded in keeping good relationships.

Margarita was born in Krasnodar, who was an abandoned province in the eighties. The family lived between the train station and the market, they had such a hibark without any amenities. " My parents are purebred Armenians, with us absolutely russian family. Father was born and grew up in Sverdlovsk, and Mom - in Sochi"Says Simonyan. Most of Rodney also lives in Adler.

Simonyan never dreamed of television. She was going to write beautiful articles in different magazines. In 1998, Margarita graduated from the first course, and she had a collection of poems, her Krasnodar television company took an internship. Leaving to Chechnya on the forefront in the bloody and insane December 1999, when only the Terrible was surrounded, the first time in the life of Simonyan deceived his parents.

After Chechnya, Margarita was noticed in Moscow. She became a freelance correspondent for several federal television channels. Father bought her a snap-on "OKU", which was already ten years old, and they with the operator on this car dangled all over the south of Russia, the Crimea, Abkhazia, Kalmykia and Ossetia, mined their reports.

In the third year, when Simonyan has not yet been twenty-one, RTR channel - now he is called "Russia" - entrusted to her heading his Corridge. " I was twenty-two, when the vrates called, the general director of the TV channel "Russia", and asked: "Choose, go to New York or to Moscow?" Chose, of course, Moscow. He fell immediately to the presidential pool - it was a real "Sucking Dream"Remembers Simonyan.

At twenty-five Margarita was appointed chief editor of Russia Today, which then did not exist: she had to launch the first Russian international round-the-clock news channel on english language. His first New Year In this capacity, she noted at work.

Simonyan in general from early adolescence actually lived only by work. She never wanted to marry, the thoughts of children was postponed on after thirty. " When novels happened, immediately honestly spoke to the Uhager, that it was not serious and most likely not for long - I just have no time", Remembers a journalist.

« It seemed to me that a married woman was an unfortunate and scored creature: her was "creative" by White Fata in order for her to clean up, washing, preparing and endured her husband's treason. However, for thirty I have already been long and quite family relationships - with a common diet, ficus and plans for the future, but I got married then"Adds Margarita.

Then in her "understood life tsunami by the surname Keosayan". " We tried to stop everything many times with Tigran - no one wanted to hurt close people. But it did not work. The first time we "forever" broke up for the whole day, the last - for twenty minutes", Says Margarita.

Simonyan lived in a small cozy house bought in a mortgage, in a wonderful village, who had only one drawback - he was sixty-three kilometers from the Moscow Ring Road. " When Tigran arrived for the first time, he asked why I had no curtain. Remembers Margarita. - Replied: "Because what I want, until I accumulated" Keosayan was shocked. In his submission, the leader of the largest international media could not have such problems. Here in this house without curtains, he moved to her live.

« Why do you say that you live near Moscow? You live under Volokolamsky! " - joked Tigran, making his way to the Margarita house on his luxurious Maserati. Mansion in Barvikha He, of course, left Alena and their shared children. Already moving toward Simonyan, he drove every morning there before work, to have breakfast with the younger daughter Ksyusha, and only then went to Mosfilm. Margarita it categorically supported. Even insisted if he was tired and wanted to sleep longer.

Tigran stopped going to Barviu every morning, only when Alena had a new civil husband, Sasha. To not create awkwardness. Ksyusha holds a weekend from them, she is friends with the children of Margarita. Tigran took only portraits and books of the Father from his house. And after the divorce, Alena remains a faithful friend and his native man, and his daughters are a loving father.

« When I found out that I was pregnant, I was shocked, sobbed about three months. Maternity happened contrary to the precaution, but there was an almost one hundred percent threat of miscarriage. Doctors said: "Want to endure, go to the preservation, we will prick hormones"Says Simonyan.

Margarita decided that he would not fight for her pregnancy, nor against: how to God, it would happen. As a result, Marysha stuck. After five months after the first birth, Simonyan became pregnant with Bagrat. This time I was not worried, delighted. " I was very easily pregnant, both times felt better than non-empty: I slept little, a lot and cheerfully worked, no day toxicosis, gave birth for the first time in two and a half hours, the second one and a half. However, motherhood is still the hardest thing I have ever done"He admitted Margarita.

With Mariashi Simonyan, a month was set in maternity leave, while all the same all collapsed by phone and mail. With a Bagrat, I was not sitting at all. Having discharged from the maternity hospital, the journalist took his son home and went to work - she just passed the check of the Accounts Chamber.

In general, a well-known journalist is also anxious milf, but she tries not to show it to children. Several times a day necessarily calls home grandmothers. Although it remembers the schedule of his children, and he has Spartan: swimming, languages, yoga, drawing, Maryashi dances, Bagrata - Thai boxing. And they have no spartan food, they still have not tried candy and cakes, so they are absolutely indifferent to sweet and gladly gnawing celery. Any cupcakes can lie on the table - the children do not pull them, because they are not perceived as food, rather as a decoration. They eat a lot of fruits and vegetables, cereals, meat, seafood.

Tigran is a much more strict parent than Margarita. Raises children immediately as adults, especially the sole son. And he is three years old, he still does not understand when Dad says that "I must apologize for the fact that I threw an apple to the floor," looks at the dad in surprised eyes and smiles. However, with the daughters Tigran, too, in the opinion of Margarita, strict. But it will fool with them, sings the funny songs that he himself invents, tells non-residents.

Simonyan says that she is a fan of pre-school education and infected by Tatyana Yemacheva - Yeltsin's daughter. Marysh with Bagrat speak five languages: Russian, Armenian, English, French and Chinese. Teachers come to them every day - native speakers. For children, it's just a game, they don't even know what learn. They pose, draw, walk, sing, watch cartoons - just all this happens in different languages.

« I would not want my children to study abroad. From egoistic considerations. Languages \u200b\u200bthey will also be ascended to the first class, and live with them in different countriesSo that they grew by the carriers of someone else's culture, I'm not ready. I am not a man of the world, very tied to his native places and want my children too nearby. We have seen many families where parents are perplexed why their child grew out a stranger, incomprehensible, somehow arrogant English aristocrat or an equally arrogant Swiss socialist. And in the heir to the twelve years sent to London in the college, did he have to grow?"Margarita believes.

Tigran did not mind the eldest daughter when she wanted to learn at Tisch School of the Arts of the University of New York, but worried about all these years. At the end, they and Alena were already very angry with themselves for their own hands, they sent daughter to another end of the world. On their happiness, she did not stay there. She received a diploma - and returned. Now the clever and beauty Sasha works with his father, was the second director at his new picture, the plot of which unfolds against the background of the construction of the Crimean bridge.

After a last summer at the birthday of Ksyusha - she was fulfilled six - Margarita became acquainted with Alena. A few days before the holiday Tigran said: " Alena invites us to come everyone together. - Of course, take the children and go with them. - You did not understand. She wants to see you».
Margarita thought that Tigran in his directorial diffusion did not understand something. He asked him Alenin number, wrote her: " Alena, hello! Tigran said you are waiting for us all together. This is true? I do not want to put anyone in an awkward position, especially in a children's holiday" Alena replied: " C'mon! Come! There will be no problems. Perfectly awake».

Guests gathered a man forty. It was just wonderful. Margarita with Alaina, as they took on a glass, when children were already taken away and sat together until the morning. Tigran could not stand, fell asleep on the lawn, periodically woke up and reached: " Girls, maybe enough? Oh please! I want to go home!»

On the festival of Margarita with Alena, they made a joint photo and posted on the Internet with a signature of "High Relations". " She is charming, very kind, smart, open - not to mention the fact that the phenomenal beauty. We have nothing to share: Alena is happy, I am happy, Tigran is happy. And thank God", Margarita is recognized.

Margarita with Tigran does not hang out and extremely rarely chosen to premieres or events. And the guests almost do not go - take friends. On Sundays, there are often tables from fifteen change dishes, Margarita loves it very much. She, of course, help her, and their help assistant. Marysh is also helped to cook. He learned how to cut the cucumbers with a small children's knife, terribly proud of it.

« Looking at your children, I am convinced that with a certain set of features, people are born. Mariana is the same ambitious as I was. At four years she spars half a day, if she did not manage to read some word or tell the rhyme. And the three-year-old son does not bother at all. Here are sitting at the table, Marilya shouts: "I am the first, because I was born first! - Well, I'm the second"," Smiles Bagrat.

On January 1, Keosayan and Simonyan always "hash open doors". All night margarita with mom and mother-in-law cooks this is the famous Armenian antipocrous dish from ruled beef hoofs. Honestly, hash by and large boiled himself, but they look at him. All friends know that they can do without a special invitation to come to them, starting with the hour of the day. So it was in the house of the parents of Margarita, it was in the house of Parents Tigran, now they have.

Tigran his wife, of course, pampers, teachs to expensive things and five star hotels. When they met, Margarita was already thirty, she had long been a big boss with a good salary, but everything was afraid of mortgages, loans, numerous relatives.

« I will never forget his first gift. I liked the bag of the famous brand, not expensive dear, but still for me wastefully checked. Passing past the boutique, admired her in the showcase. Once Tigran caught my opinion: - Do you like this bag?", Tells the journalist.

Tigran Schihar bought her and gave his wife. " So I, like a child, slept with her for several days - put it on the pillow, the eye could not tear off. I still wear it", Remembers Margarita.

Keosayan and Simonyan still have not registered relationships, Nih simply do not reach this hand. " Recently joked on this topic at home tells Margarita "Caravan Story" - we decided that, probably, we get married when the children would grow up to sit down with their parents for a shared table, drink homemade wine from grapes, planted by my grandfather, to eat a bid on the recipe of Mom Tigran and say: "What are you great, ancestors, that Once all this was decided!»

The main topic today is the first interview with Ruslana Bolsharova and Alexander Petrova. It is their British authorities without a shadow of doubt, and even no longer Highly Likely, called poisoners of scripts. And despite the presumption of innocence, it is Petrov and Bolschirov who now have to prove that they do not have a loud crime.

They told his version of the chief editor of the RT TV channel Margarita Simonyan. And so they told: first, the names are real; Secondly, the relationship does not have a relationship. In addition, in Salisbury, they drove a while of London as tourists - to inspect the sights, which there is enough there, for example, Stonehenge, or the Cathedral of the Virgin Mary.

Alexander Petrov: From the very beginning, we planned to come and sprout, roughly speaking. We planned so that we will visit London, and go to Salisbury, naturally, it should have been one day.

The excitement around these two young people broke out unprecedented. British Scotland Yard declared them by the Emirates of Sergei's Sripoil's Device and his daughter. The British press has already managed to report that they have long been eliminated that they were passing out to "Mole" in one of the Russian embassies - in the homeland of Agatha Christie, the intricate spyware is very likely to love. But the reality turned out to be more prosaic.

Margarita Simonyan: You can describe what you did in England? You were two days there.

Alexander Petrov: Three, it turns out.

Margarita Simonyan: What did you do these three days?

Alexander Petrov: The second number flew, nothing more to do.

Ruslan Bolschirov: Planned just one day in Salisbury to go.

According to them, the weather was intervened in their plans - London and surroundings piled up snow. But the trip to Salisbury did not cancel. Very wanted to see the famous Anglican Cathedral, and quickly regretted. Walked only half an hour.

Alexander Petrov: Naturally, we drove to visit Stonehenge, the Cathedral of the Virgin Mary. But it did not work because the city was in full fat. 40 minutes spent at the station in the cafe.

Ruslan Bolschirov: Dried coffee.

Alexander Petrov: Electric trains walked with a large gap.

They decided to return to Salisbury the next day on March 4. So done. Walked, photographed.

Ruslan Boshirov: We sat in the park. We went to the cafe, we walked, enjoyed English gothic.

Alexander Petrov: For some reason, we were shown only at the station.

Margarita Simonyan: When were you in Salisbury, did you fit the squeak house?

Ruslan Boshirov: Maybe they passed, we do not know where he is. I did not hear this surname at all, I did not know anything about them.

Margarita Simonyan: Have you had a novice with you? Have you had a Spirit of Nina Ricci?

Ruslan Boshirov:Generally nonsense. And the normal men with them carry female perfume, it's stupid!

Margarita Simonyan: You went together, lived together. What unites you?

Ruslan Boshirov:Let's, we will not climb a private life, we came to you for protection.

Alexander Petrov complained: after they were killed in London, their lives turned into a nightmare. Young people just confused

Alexander Petrov: We did not even understand what we should do where to go: to the police, in the Investigative Committee, to the UK Embassy.

Ruslan Boshirov: Or to go to the FSB? We are afraid to go outside, we fear for life, for loved ones.

Alexander Petrov: You even read our publications that they write there, what kind of remuneration ...

Ruslan Boshirov: This is normal, do you think? Yes, any normal person will be afraid.

The reaction of London on an interview was quite expected. The appearance of Petrov and Bashrov, and especially the details of their life and travel again undermine London's attempts to accuse Russia's squeakly poisoning. The British Foreign Ministry said that he continues to consider these people the main suspects.

Margarita Simonyan: Did you think about it at all? Do you think?

Alexander Petrov and Ruslan Bashors: It's hard to say, but ... well, we think we live in this. But the only thing that would like, if really, someday, the poisoners will find at least we apologize to.

According to Margarita Simonyan, they went out on the editor-in-chief of RT themselves, because they are signed on her telegramkanal. At first they wanted to record a video message and publish it online. But in the end contacted Margarita.

"They set several conditions. They said they did not want the interview to be in the studio to not have around a lot of people, the maximum operator with the camera. They did not want noise. They were nervous, they were very nervous, very much, this is important. I have even I poured a brandy for courage, the air conditioner was put up to the maximum. But still wiped the sweat. A normal reaction for those who first give interviews. But, maybe, for another reason, I didn't know, I not know, - noted the editor of the RT TV channel.

Margarita Simonyan: Do you work in GRU?

Alexander Petrov: Do you work in GRU?

Margarita Simonyan: Me not.

Ruslan Boshirov: Me neither.

Alexander Petrov:Me neither.

To the question than you make a living, young people did not want to answer first. According to them, not to harm their business and people with whom they work. But then they still told that they work in the fitness industry - advise on proper nutrition, biojobats and bodybuilding.

Margarita Simonyan:That is, you work with customers who you help make a beautiful body.

Alexander Petrov: Briefly yes. I would not like to betray it publicly, and to delve into all these questions. I would not want to suffer people from among our customers.

Abroad, they often drive together, relax or to familiarize themselves with the innovations of sports nutrition. In the British press, they were reported that they went to Switzerland and lived in Geneva. Even found a room with one bed in which they stopped.

Ruslan Boshirov: It's fine for a tourist, normally for arrival, come, to move, was in the double room, in a two-room room live, saving money, and it's just this life, living together this is more fun, it's easier, and this is, it's fine for a normal any person .

Margarita Simonyan showed them their photos from British video surveillance cameras. They are filmed separately. But the time at each photo coincides to a second. Why, they could not explain, and addressed this issue to the British.

Alexander Petrov: It's just that we are even going together together, I have a slightly row with English, if some problems arise, I help Ruslan.

Young people confirmed that and on other published photos of photographs - they.

Margarita Simonyan:Do you have this clothes now in Russia? Can we see her? Excellent.

Alexander Petrov and Ruslan Bosharov: Yes, in Russia, we have it, we can show it, of course.

Margarita Simonyan: And you do not have it, by chance?

Alexander Petrov:Jacket, yes, I have a jacket with me, she is here. Yes, this jacket is. She is with me with me, here.

Ruslan Bosharov: I have all these things too in the wardrobe.

Petrov and Boshirov said that they were very tired of the hype, which their person is surrounded and literally do not understand how they live on. As Petrov said, it will not come out the car. They asked journalists and ordinary people Do not pester them if you find out on the street, and generally leave them alone.

Alexander Petrov:Even if suddenly someone will learn, because we can not just sit at home and do not go anywhere, then friends, do not get cell phonesWell, I do not know how to ask it.

On our question, whether the chiefs of television company RT trust the words of Petrova and Bashirov, Margarita Simonyan replied: "I am not a psychologist. I do not work in the GRU, they also say that they do not work. I have no opportunity to check, the truth is said or not, I did not have a polygraph, I am a journalist, I believe in what I see. I saw people, saw that they were like a photo, saw their passports. What they had in my head, they cheated me or not - it's hard for me to say. Everyone should conclude himself when will look. "

At 32, I became a journalist of the presidential pool, and in the 35th editor-in-chief of the RUSSIA today.
