are going on the ground. can the breaking news in general valerie's illusion, the head of ukrainian armed forces throughout the conflict with russia is sacked from his post. this follows a long public reps between president zalinski and the outgoing commander in chief over failures on the battlefield. just 2 hours until the much anticipated tucker carlson interview with vladimir putin hips, the journalist streaming network at 11 p. m g m t. you can watch the full broadcast here on archie. has decided the webinar. you know, to say audiological is we will not by when i'm going to do it, but it didn't stop all imports, desktop google. busy import, but they would continue to import gas. they're continuing to import other critical minutes. so what does this and the end in petroleum and, and natural gas ministry,

gives an exclusive interview to r t, from the energy weak form being hosted in the south asian country. the you're watching r t international. i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. we begin with breaking news president vladimir zalinski has sacked, general value, raise the loose me to a served as commander in chief of the armed forces of ukraine since july 2021. alexander sky has now been appointed as the new ukrainian army chief. the media has been reporting ons illusion is afraid relations with the lensky over the course of the complex. and the countries mobilization strategy after cabs failed and counter offensive are to use that shape. what was told us more, it is a risk that rumors of these risk have been rife for many, many months now. it's now also being officially notified on the president's

feelings. he's website too. so this is definitely the news that many have been expecting. a lot of room, or though a lot of suggestions that there had been a rift, that as the general's illusion had refused to leave his post, and no one else would take it up, it's cetera. but the question remains is just part of a wider rift at the very top of the key every g. and if you like, as of faces off against russia and increasingly difficult situation. so the actual dismissal itself has been pitched as a very friendly one, which is interesting, the imagery and the language that's gone around the zalinski thinking is illusion the for a service, etc. navigation is that all those i what was the most of the water? i am grateful to generals the illusion, the for 2 years of protection. with that we spoke frankly today about what needs to change in the army. urgent changes over by offer general's illusion need to remain in the team of the ukrainian state in the future. i have a pointed colonel, general ser stevie as the commander in chief of the armed forces of ukraine, a pro it all calm is it made a very, very difficult situation for ukraine,

and this is all about the battlefield. really a general delusion, a very experience soldier. first joining the military academy in 2005, when you pointed as the leader of the ukrainian military and 2021 which is interesting. very well liked by his troops, very popular. i've seen as something of a pragmatist, but the reality speaks to the difficult situation that the general found himself in the russian m. o. d recently suggesting that over 400000 ukranian troops have been lost in the conflict. and the loss of significantly strategic important centers liked by mote at under the general's come mind. leading to these kind of conflicts at the top of the political sphere. again, the president, the ukraine being more adamant the hold at all costs, whereas to lose he was a and it was prone to sort of more pragmatic, military approach, which is not by military strategy if you like it all. this comes as well as russian troops advancing along the wide stretches of the front to so things don't look too

good on the international stage, a lack of a lack of funding, funding held up in, in the us at the middle east crisis taking the world off your point and if you like, one of the key issues that really maybe in the store that broke the camel's back was when a general is illusion. he made a, an interview with the economist, the base of the suggested that this conflict would reach the stalemate. that they were going to be real sure, there wasn't gonna be any beautiful breakthrough. and that much like the 1st floor where the 2 sites have come to a stalemate on the battlefield. trench warfare, i feel like that's not exactly true because russian troops are gaining ground as we speak for this openness from this illusion. i think, and i think most of us would believe it was really a catalyst for the landscape seeking to end his career, just like in the 1st world war, we have reached the level of technology that puts us into a style night. there will most likely be no deep and beautiful breakthrough or time

has passed, people are tired regardless of their status and this is understandable, but this is not a stalemate by emphasize this once again. so as you can see, significant differences in the opinion here at this gap was whitening over the last number of months. yeah, certainly. can you get a storm background on the situation and what's happening on the battlefield? of course, as we speak, you claim needs more troops, and nobody would deny that in your training kia. and this was another one of the main sparking points between these 2 personalities at different sides of the bait and almost everything on the general's alluding to becoming more more vocal and his supporters becoming more vocal, even in ukrainian society. people very well disposed the general's illusion, whereas the president, the lens, these, the popularity ratings are actually lower. when you ask the question, who do you support? so, i mean, the, let's get no military knowledge whatsoever as well. and it seems that he was

increasing the waiting into debates on specific strategic decisions that have to be made. and it was really when this illusion event, again, publicly criticized president savanski is a attempts to reform the recruitment laws, the drafting laws to bring women into the forces to recruit a vast army, to hold back at the advancing russians as lucy was against this. essentially, they were professionals, they knew how to do it and now they are not there. in terms of mobilization issues, it's not that it needs to be strengthened. it just needs to be brought back to the framework in which it was in which it worked before the disagreements were coming more and more vocal. and it was really a matter of time before a presence that landscape got this stone out of issue. if you look, you gotta wonder what is going to do to morale because general is illusion. he was, was rather popular. what we're going to tell us about this new commander in chief. well, a general sir ski alexander sits cc. he's the current commander of ukraine's ground

forces, which make up the, the main body of ukraine. so army, remember, your planes army has probably been destroyed sadly, a several times over compared to the army that stood in 2022. they've lost huge amounts of men. much of the constituent part of the russian, or the ukrainian military is now made up with territory and defense. you and his people are drafted into the military. and again, this was another issue where the loony opened. he criticized the idea that you're asking civilians to hold a critical infrastructure that we need to pull back to re um and prepare for a different type of war. uh, serious key is also a quite on ceremoniously known as general. 200. 200 is military terminology for a deceased person, and he was actually don't mind in charge of a very important but political in the bolts have been twin. the 15 in n. s and don't boss where a significant ukranian force was surrounded and it too much of an extent destroyed . so he's seen as

a mom that's willing to expend the lives of his man. he's seen as quite a high, you founded as a lensky loyalist at quite the opposite to general was a losing. so his appointment to me until the ronald is looking at the situation seems to smack of some kind of desperation and also a complete change that interestingly the key every gene has also tonight suggested the reasons why they have basically dismiss general's illusion. and they include that we need a new type of strategy. we need a brush that will sweep clean, become fellow a stalemate on the battlefield. and we need to invest and investigate different ways to continue to win the war against russia. now, no real objective analyst would suggest that you train is winning the war against bush you. so we're gonna have to watch this space and see what this really sorry is make change at the top of the ukrainian regime means on the ground. michael lou, former senior security policy analyst as the landscapes re shuffle,

signifies the help us position. that'd be crane's armed forces on the front line. well, not surprising. it, it is going to be a serious question as to what the morale is going to be among the troops themselves in ukrainian troops themselves. there is that stalemate, and this isn't what the zalinski wants to here. and, but what, what does that sound lensky have? that the, that's his, that's zillow's nice successor can bring to the table. uh, the funding is virtually drying up. um the, there isn't a logistical support for, for ukraine to continue the conflict. he's caught and i think he's groping. he does, but he does, realistically, he doesn't have the backing, the military of the financial backing to carry on

a conflict that is lost. and the longer it goes on, the more entrenched russian forces become and it will make it even more difficult for zalesky to do anything. and i, i just think it's going to have a terrible landing on out into the middle east where the iraqi government has threatened to end the us sled presence in the country after washington conducted another error strike on his territory on wednesday, killing a cut to the post below, military commander, baghdad has condemned the attack as a violation of the country's sovereignty. american forces has repeated irresponsibly all the actions that would undermine the established understandings and hinder the initiation of bilateral dialogue. by this act, the american forces jeopardize civil peace, violate your rocky sovereignty and disregard the safety and lives of our citizens. even more concerning is that the coalition consistently deviates from the reasons

and objectives for its presence on our territory. to the drone attack took place in the milestone neighborhood of the rocky capital, causing several loud explosions. the striking and moving car on a busy street causing the vehicle to catch fire. depending on said, the targeted commander was responsible for directing attacks on us troops in the region. as us sent com confirmed at the strike to the new indications of collateral damage or civilian casualties. at this time. the united states will continue to take necessary action to protect our people. we will not hesitate to hold responsible all those who threaten uh, forces safety. this is not the 1st to us attack on iraqi territory. and last friday, american forces struck over 85 sites in both a rack and syria. after the attack us officials claimed to have informed back to add up the strikes. but national security council spokesperson john kirby later acknowledge that they had not notified iraqi officials of the attacks on their

territory. i deeply apologize for the year, and i regret that any confusion that it caused it was based on information we had for that. it was provided to me in those early hours after the strikes turns out that information was incorrect and, and i certainly regret the error and i hope that you understand there was no new intent behind it. no, no delivered to intent to deceive or to be to be wrong. bank data has repeatedly can them the us strikes on us territory. iraqi prime minister criticized the error rates, saying they in danger this country sovereignty and threatened to regional stability . while his media office denied his country coordinated the actions with washington accusing us officials of making a false claim that the american side deliberately deceived and falsified the facts by announcing prior coordination to commit this aggression which is

a false claim and misleading international public opinion. and disavowing legal responsibility for this crime. in accordance with all international laws, i would estimate that the united states is not a shame to commit such crimes in iraq and many of the countries because it considers itself the sweep of paula in these walls and thus believes it has the right to control people's will people do not have the right to have their own will and decide the fate by themselves. that's why the united states acts this way. suddenly what happened in iraq yesterday and today's before, what happened on the jo, dennis here in boulder and what happens in many areas that did not want the american dominance is a form of american boot. and if i'm of american recklessness, that spread throughout the world's vessel, the united states increases the levels of hatred. people have towards it, but it does not realize based i believe that the united states is flooded during

its policy in these direction and thinks it has the right to do whatever it wants. but there is a real slow in then every can political mind. it hasn't us itself, if the base in syria and iraq, a legal if they came as positive agreements between the syrian and the rights of governments and the united states, or even the occupation forces. iraq is truly did not one such forces did not desire such a dominance over the rocky skies. and the united states striking those factions from the rock and secure with the forces only shows that these factions did not align with american policy. just because they did not the line with the american policy, the united states believes it has the right to undertake such commissions. starting with the rocky stones. it was good. the problem and assistance was good. he condemned american aggression to, to condense that the rug becomes a battle ground for southern schools with united states adverse. the risk is not

just the violation of a rocky sovereignty, but also a criminal act that the united states commits against the rockies. in general. of course, as no one goes to the united states and carries out the terrorist operations they describe, it describes these groups as to how risk groups groups the challenge of the united states. yes, the challenge the united states and we continue to do so because now the united states is an occupying force. the american journalist tucker carlson has announced that his highly anticipated interview with the russian president will air at 11 p. m g m t less than 2 hours from now on his self titled network. you can watch the broadcast in full on our team. the kremlin says it will publish the interview friday morning and hopes it will be viewed by a wide audience. well, mr. carlson's teaser video for the interview has garnered over 101000000 views. the backlash over as one on one with president clinton is spreading across western

media. and among politicians it's prompting. some journalists to alleged that western governments are trying to suppress different opinions. and despite wide scale interest, the white house claims that it's not important for anyone. i think it's pretty obvious should be very obvious to everybody. uh, what has to britain has done any grain. and the quote is completely bogus in the end and ridiculous reasons for what she tried to justify it. i don't think we need a, another interview with latimer for me to, to uh, to understand his brutality. i think the people who want to be in power, i believe they are the people that don't care about law and constitution. they think that they can ignore that. so they like try to silence people by either ridicule or say in your own patriotic or you're telling a lie, that's what you're tapes and most is the fact that he's thrived by breaking the chains of the mainstream media. he's thrive because people are starved for

information and that's exactly what the latest don't want. because they're restored, terry and at heart. they don't want you to even hear the other side, its nearest terminal list and protocol analysts. john for raleigh told us there is no room for opinion. it's different from the government narrative in the us and era . the american never has been harassing him, hounding him. you know, he's, i'm, so of course i'm gonna call him a trade or they're gonna call the trainer. they do everything possible to, to harass him, to try to discredit him. there's no free press look at that. they tried to destroy his career. it chased them from fox news and he came back only by through his incredible willpower strength and his belief is belief in america is blinking. the american people is believe in true in modern europe and in north america there is no room for other opinions. there is no room for other things. there's one narrative, it's the government narrative. they laid on the law in all other media companies,

journalists, and it is, they have to follow that narrative. there can be no deviation whatsoever. we just look at this reaction how strongly for mostly they're reacting to and stuck across the simply do his job. he's a journalist, his job is to interview people to gather information, and then to let the public make their own conclusions. but know that the, that is no longer possible in modern europe. and in the united states, where most media companies are under the, control the government either directly or indirectly. there again, there's only one narrative, and it can be no deviation from the world should be grateful to india for buying russian oil. that's according to the indian petroleum and natural gas minister. in an exclusive interview with r t correspondent, runjun sharma at energy week and the world's most populous country. you also said that in nearby and boys in russia has kept the prices of oil. absolutely. should the water be grateful? i,

they shouldn't be very much. so whether we india and bought better as a noise, and if everybody in baltimore and a lot of people bought a lot of us and stuff, so let's not get into it. you know, i'm not sure noise coming from through the pipeline to hungry. it was exempt. there's no talk about that russian noise going through the pipeline to china. it was exempt. russian oil going from the body, cycling to japan is exempt. so what is left of the, what? so these are those decided to weaponized that you're not to say audiological days. we will not by let them go do the but didn't stop all imports, desktop, google import, but they will continue to import. guess they're continuing to a import other critical minimums. so what is this new daily and that's not important. the government does not important. it's odd oil entities that input all entities out in the public sector and in the private sector. the new non cooperation, which is the 7th largest company in the world and downstream. they're one of the

major importers what they do, and what everybody does is to florida, send us at the point of importation, let's say, please let us know how much of this this we need so much one to be of this group, deliberate at this port. it is heavy um, gold? part of the. okay. it was either maybe the other parts of importation different at the end of it. i shouldn't company quotes. alyssa, price. good. is it? i shouldn't company cause a high price environment, the present lizard price. so they're also audited, so there is no decision when i in february 2022. when did i show you can military conflict the place at that stage i went and bought from the shuttle is 0.2 percent it today then 30 percent is under decline. it's a massive into, oh, i live there may have been 33 or 24 comes down. but you know, even mean point 5000000 bottles ought to consume 5000000 barrels on

a particular day. you might have it all cause a lot of pressure on maybe that then. so the may be that it depends on the price and availability. today the situation is that in parts of crude oil are the biggest item in out in port bhaskar and equally the export of petroleum products is the biggest item in unexplored basket. so we will import from wherever we can really support the weight of and we can now the a lot of new plants coming on the rock. well, not the bottom of the big plus a dinah is new, i think of city nom is new, maybe as new, brazil a lot. that are members of all over the guys and now the palestine red crescent society is calling on the international community to find out the faith of a young girl. and the organizations rescue team who have been missing for 9 days after israel targeted the car in which the girl was travelling. payne's mother and

staff having due a drill and blessings. archie n. c. a unsure of pens fate, as well as that of use of zeno and smith. i'm a tune. it's been 9 days since we last had from the p l. c. s m s team center rescue this 6 year old ago. we edge monthly, appealed to the international community to accept pressure on these really occupational forwards is to disclose the whereabouts. offend on the p l. c. s team . according to the p r. c. s hand was sheltering in a car with relatives when they came under is rarely fire. the moment was caught on a recording of a conversation between his cousin and the organizations and staff member. despite them her risk situation, the 6 year old girls mother has not given up hope that her daughter will return. the only issue a number has to fill done in 5 is my a k ha. it's because of what happened to my daughter when she wasn't to call hinge was going through the most extreme c. and you could probably imagine leon was in

the car with her spite lead being more severely injured than my daughter. she tried to save hands and started asking us how to provide 1st aid at that moment when they shortly. and my daughter told me, mom leon has a boots and her face to face look scary. and i told her the cause of her face as that hidden under the seat. the occupation forces claim the only target time off, only the terrorist. so what about my daughter and the all the children in the call, the and they'll to moss or any kind of tourist hope that's when i see my daughter, i can make her forget the things she has been through. i hope when i see her, i can hold show in my arms and make her forget everything she has seen. and while guys that remains in a state of humanitarian disaster debate surrounding funding for on rock continue unabated, despite the fact that no evidence has yet been presented. that under a staff took part in the october 7th from us attack. us has not given up on cutting funding for the vital organization for palestinians. us, however, has sponsored or recognized terrorist organizations in the recent past. i don't

want to ask you is a nice day to continue. obviously there, there is text in this pending legislation that would preclude us from doing so. we're an administration that follows law the while these military power and military operation is moving forward. we need to use on diplomatic and more traditional intelligence assets to bring pressure on the governments of guitar and saudi arabia, which are providing clandestine and financial and logistic support to ices and other radical sunni groups in the region. the l. keita is on our side and syria. otherwise,

things have basically turned out as expected, the image and about the outside during your speech going after, okay, the enough dentist and certainly going after them in human as well. and you know, there's some concern about the us funding, the syrian opposition when there are a lot of reports that i'll call you to is kind of heading up that opposition. how do you justify the to well i, i share that concern. and so what we've done it is to say we will provide non legal assistance to siri and opposition leadership that are committed to a political transition. the devices got started through funding from our friends and allies because people will tell you in the region, if you want somebody who will fight to the death against his full law, you don't put out a recruiting poster and say, you know,

sign up for us. so we're going to make a better world, you go after selling and do wherever these religious fundamentalist statute fights is more logic as we saw it, however, we could probably manage all the now to kenya where police are investigating the suspected killings that took place on the delmonte pineapple farm, after 4 bodies were retrieved from a river during the christmas holidays. local journalist timothy obeys who takes up the story. hey, allocations against the multinational delmonte in kenny i have been retiring over the years, but the latest following that is called the afford dead bodies in

a river near the company's fast pine are performed in dfcs in december has pox control over. so each community activists including non profit organizations, filed a lawsuit. a legend locals have been feeding to deb drowned in downs or dobs even nearby river by the companies dots as they each drives to steal pine, a pool from the property. in addition, the alleged waste water from delmonte appraisals contain toxic chemicals that are causing house and environmental hazards. a lot of young children from the region have suffered at the hands of the del monte farm. this madness must be stopped. enough is enough, puddle facia of academia, national commission for human rights said they believed beyond reasonable doubt thoughts the form and where a tots before they were forcibly drowned an autopsy report on the one up to fix and sold that death was caused by drowning. but no,

that was bodily harm from possible use of blood force local residents accounts for type on the body and also supports the claims that the victims were feeding to death. but the company denies the obligations side and it's the certificate for data. betty said, showed the man lee in the form oper, encountering the dogs. delmonte also said it is for pointing with afar these investigations. we are a corporation with canning authorities as they continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding before board is retrieved from the c cover. eva, last week, the old ups is, are still ongoing our security 2 days from the time the man attempted to still be pineapples, shows no signs of full play on the part of addendum on to, but instead, shows them running off towards the river, throwing the bags of still in pine, up posts in the attempt to evade secure with the gods, organized crime. but equally around pineapple south is becoming increasingly

rampant in the area. we are actively seeking additional ways to help tackle organized crime as safely and effectively as possible in a joint investigation published into regions the brought in newspaper and for your base route of investigative journalism, reported on allegations of 6 the murders of the plantation in the last decade delmonte employs around $6000.00 loafers and has global sales of more than $4000000000.00. the company set organized crime, particularly around china percept was becoming increasingly round. prince bass delmonte said it is ready to address the allegations in the canyon courts describing them as courts. nothing more than this information campaigns by the plaintiffs and the media. on thursday, the guardian said it's investigation, courts and logos with viewed the company tried to cover up atrocities by offering bribes to people just paying the narrative. the tie students to the body to keep it

from floating in the water, to keep it from the composing. know, just one person was cute and then monta. there are many ways to can just as president, who should know this. they should stop queueing now, what children. they arrest them, they should take them to court, not to kill them. i do, but whenever i see fruits from delmonte, i feel as if i have seen the blood of my son, i always feel bitter knowing very well. we are under a new colony of rich people who do not care about others. there are people in delmonte, either politicians or influential people who always obstruct justice, as all complaints filed against delmonte or not resolved. my case was transferred to the secret court, although they later said there was no case to answer. all of i always spoke with tom lataria, an advocate of the high court of kenya, who said, can you needs a lot.
