6:00 am
the aggressiveness by the u. s. and the western powers the fortunately beginning, unfortunately trainings that the situation is critical. the white house that moves with kids forces are struggling on the battlefield. a bit of lack of support from washington. so that's not enough free among during the politicians are also screening about a new russian nuclear space. rest those details up and coming in while these rel claims it's fighting for its survival in god. not everyone at home agrees. i'm at least correspondence speaks to fatigue and people activity, but also to those who think the father is justified. yeah, by the process of getting a mazda we unfortunately a lot some, it's 30000 people in the strength
6:01 am
in numbers molly but can across. so i need discussing plans to create a confederation. it's a bit ongoing tensions with the west. i've been blocked off the and so we've made it all the way to friday, but you will use as in slowing down one straight to ukraine. we go increasing numbers of report saying that keeps forces us severely strain, particularly around the strategic city of idea of go from where its troops are either surrounded or trying to escape the us national security council spokesperson, john coby offered his $0.02. i want to share a few words about the battlefield, such an a situation in ukraine where the fighting is incredibly intense in the east, particularly in a city called of the of the city that we've talked about several times before. unfortunately, we're getting reports from the cranes that the situation is critical. in very large
6:02 am
part, this is happening because ukrainian forces on the grounds are running out of artillery ammunition because congress has yet to pass the supplemental bill. we've not been able to provide ukraine. the artillery shows that they desperately need to disrupt these russian cells, and they have carriers can see that a key strategic point on that whole line losing control over the city would push, keeps troops further away from the regional capital. don't you ask? but it's not the only spot on the front line with the situation that has become critical for you. right. we were talking this with a full month's see i list of larry johnson, he believes a lack of trained soldiers is ultimately undermining ukraine's war efforts. it's called retreat and the reason they're doing that is it's a combination of factors. they're like ammunition. they're like artillery shells. they have no air support, no fixed wing air support. they have a real power with a, with manpower. they do not have
6:03 am
a sufficient cod ray of trained soldiers that what they have are ill trained, elderly soldiers, man who are in the fifty's and sixty's, who have no business of being on a front line. and then to make matters worse, they're not properly trained. they're not properly equipped, switching to sarah ski, who's known not so affectionately as the butcher. anytime you have a general known as the butcher, it's not exactly a vote of confidence from the troops on the front lines and he's reported to be not favored. the most obviously a post. he has a very dismal try track record going back to the battle and i think it was 2015 in the box survey. and then followed up with box moved that debacle. and now he's, he's like a black, a bad black jack player at a casino. he keeps doubling down on losing hands and doesn't recognize when it
6:04 am
comes to the time is to walk away from the table. so he reportedly had ordered a new reserve, some of the better troops remaining, which that was one of the big differences between sir ski and the allusion a. his predecessor at the same briefing by the us national security council spoke to us and the white house. finally confirmed, the much hyped threat to national security that have been well speculated on so much this week did in fact refer to russia on cubby's saying is related to a n c satellite weapons developed by moscow for how much i can share about the specific nature of the threats i can confirm that it is related to an anti satellite capability that russia's developing president biden has been kept fully informed and regularly informed by his national security team, including today. he has directed a series of initial actions including additional readings to congressional leaders, direct diplomatic engagement with russia, with our allies in our partners as well,
6:05 am
and with other countries around the world to have interest in the state. intelligence community has serious concerns about a, about a broad di classification of this intelligence. well, this declaration of an apparent anti satellites threat from russia comes along side a major defeats for the ukranian military on the battlefield. and as arguments are raging in washington as to whether or not to send more military aids to ukraine itself, and this new wave of fear sweeping washington and actually started with a pro key of republican congressman mike turner, claiming that the white house had brief to him on this new threats, interestingly enough, this is the same politician who led to a house delegation to key of just last week, where he promised a lot of years lensky, that more money and more weapons are going to be freed up in the near future for the ukrainian military and lo and behold, this apparent threats at the white house as it's confirmed,
6:06 am
is uniting both republicans and democrats, especially the pro key of crowd was like turner himself and his democratic colleagues, nancy pelosi and i wanna thank jake sullivan for being here today. he had a great presentation, very thoughtful, where he's the chairman of the intelligence committee, and i respect his judgment. we believe that it was important enough to notify the other members of congress as this is unfolding. there will be, i think, times in which congress needs to be engaged in support of the administration. any like that can be shared on the dangers of russia is to the world. it's important to recognize. but this even go was beyond the pro key of crowd really because even the speaker of the house, who essentially rose to prominence by taking a stance against a more age to crane seems to be jumping on turner's bandwagon. let's take listen what he's saying. this is a matter that we've known about for a few weeks. we requested a meeting with the president. i did, we did in writing in january. it's a serious matter. it is a very serious matter. it doesn't involve russia. it's not
6:07 am
a matter that can involve delay, it's something we have to address seriously. and part of the media basis, the white house gave us information. today they're going to remain in close contact with. we does have congress on the issue and it will be dealt with the steady hands of the wheel. well, what has most cuz reaction towards this being, i mean, the oldest thing here's to being a single pointed out as the enemy. but any reaction will refer to response from the kremlin, which says that this is basically just a very obvious attempt by washington to green light more money by scaring lawmakers into opening up the states wallet. it is obvious that the white house is trying, by hook or by crook, to encourage congress to vote on a bill to allocate money. this is obvious. we'll see what tricks the white house will use. have of course it looks like the kremlin spokesperson, there's referring to this new ukraine a to feel that there once again trying to push through the house of representatives . it's been discussed for
6:08 am
a long time. it's been rejected several times. so we're gonna have to see how this new wave of hysteria and washington about an apparent russian threat is going to influence that process. and perhaps no surprise as a form, a pen to go on security on the list, michael maloof, he believes this a circle nuclear space threat is not actually anything particularly new. any country that has a nuclear weapon and has a spaced capability and can and has ballistic missiles and kind of orbit satellites can actually orbit a satellite, which is in effect would be a nuclear weapon. and can exploded between 2 and 300 miles in orbit. any time and, and the create what would be called an electromagnetic pulse. and we're seeing that today. uh, north korea has that capability, russia, china, us, they all have it. and, and so this is nothing new. my feeling is that, given that it's turner who is lighting his hair on fire and putting that with a frying pan,
6:09 am
is they because he is trying to insight action to pass that legislation. he's a, he's in the habits supporter of it. it just came over to the house, there's going to be problems with it, getting it approved. so i think that this is his way of trying to raise an alarm about russia. and it's, uh, yeah, yeah, it's a threat to the united states. and it's, it's just another one of those uh, things that the people, even though season the congressmen and senators are saying, you know, we, we've, knowing all of this and, and that, that possibility is there. but it's not happening in fact that we know of. well, i mean, while this exclusive photo showing russian forces conducting their operations and then open parts of the little guns region, a ground, a sold selling with a drone operations being carried out in the trim. and i, our region as well as your office goals and on his back move his way, many former veterans of the wagner group. now fight is part of another unit. over now it's want to use the eagles, donald reporting from the city,
6:10 am
which still stands as a reminder of the fist fighting the ones to place the it's a city in ruins. it's crumbling. facades are a testament to possibly the bloody is battle of the ukraine war, which wants this place to this day. that, that most below me is the city over to almost. and arguably, the biggest minutes here is not a tillery not tanks, but come because the drones and when the visibility is this good, this whole neighborhood is the problem. ground, the soldiers that we are imbedded with, they are big. keep telling us, constantly, listen, listen for the bus. because well, everybody understands. we can spend much time on this roof tough. we are here on borrowed time. the streets are all too familiar for the fight,
6:11 am
is where with they are the ones who kicked ukrainian troops out of every nook and cranny, over to almost proudly wearing the insignia of the wagner company on their sleeves . dividing the group itself, also known as the orchestra or musicians, is going through a turbulent phase. these wagner veterans still carry that usually can the hots but now they play a tune of their own as a different unit called camera tone. or the tuning fork is almost all summer. the idea is for the out of to musical instruments to be cleaned up in tune properly. in other words, they all return to the original state used for their intended purpose and effectively performed the tasks hopefully moment. parts of the smart battalion, the food, new legacy, the crucible of war with plenty has changed here since the dispatch to the front lines last year. one thing stay the same as
6:12 am
though the enemy in front of them about them fill it out. the targets are different . we face the infantry, including the sheltered infantry hiding in the dugouts. we also come across armored vehicles when you don't have to. camera tone might be a smaller units, but it's also a mean one dedicated to finish what they started. you to the youth on you out opponent is fighting the wrong way. this is the big mistake. the sold will judge us all decisions that'd be made. and if they make it in time, then let them use a special frequency and say, vote for surrender. there is nothing more to say. i'm gonna get done of reporting from. i have to almost ok, see all right as of islands. so it is in the west bank and a full scale war on folds and gaza support among his riley's for their own forces is by no means unified. and he will protest as a regularly hitting the streets demanding an end to what they call
6:13 am
a genocide and gaza. but that is not making their own lives easy is i'm at least bureau chief has been finding out of late in the afternoon after work. diane's 23 year old is really jewish, anti war activist from hyphen, as well as the 3rd largest city. and the biggest in the north is waiting for her friend and other activist a on comes soon, the to start discussing what would be the best location for today's defend any odds bag signs and posters in hebrew and english with various calls including to stop genocide and gaza and to refuse joining these really military. the 2 together with 7 other protesters here for a silent picket dripping by an irresistible urge to speak out. this war is a product of the freshman, of the occupation, of 48th and the end of the 6730000. so simians are larger. the same government says supposedly wants to represent me and my interest. it's in the endless cycle of
6:14 am
violence that we want this we must stop. so it's a faucet for me to, to go out into this theory to tell the world. so the israel is that we exist onto our activities will exist even if it's, if it's a single cost or free them, they call is free protests. the idea is to say one place for around 20 minutes and then move on, skipped to another location, not to be caused by police on these b. yours do have grounds. guy a has been detained twice, and that is only after the war started. of the police were violent towards us. they always list, if it's in a process they'll, they'll come to talk 2 bits you up a little bit. suppose you put you through the floor and then to the you'll be in a police car for a couple of hours. we focused lessons experience to, to get to be seen by a police officer and know that you can do anything. so just to defense yourself, because if you'll defense yourself, you'll be talks with um,
6:15 am
will texting the police officer when they detain you? they please charger and they try to charge me with the incitement with disturbance of the public order. they'll say that you are a treat to have the country that you're putting the public risk to tell you many, many things. so, but eventually those, the only do this is terry you. and it's not the only police that the anti war protests are. is who pressure from what do we film a young man passing by stops to express his disagreement with slogans minutes later, the car stops new, the crow test. the how you feel about your fellow is really is just like this woman. now, like putting shame on you as i was,
6:16 am
is going genocide that i found you guys the most people in isabel. they don't really realize that's because you really don't understand that they are very much they believe it was just the funding itself. they don't really think about the fact that as i was killing tens of thousands more than a 1000000 people were pushed away, of their lands again is really the self defense is what i was trying to defend. it's called colonial presence. in that sense, it is defending itself. people as told that costs of limited civilities, law enforcement division stops, lights flashing the police. they are responsible for maintaining public order and safety. they leave. so if the but the activists are aware, they may return and detention could fall as they rush to fold and hide their posters. preparing to make a quick escape. i think the officers coming to us. so let's see how it's going to
6:17 am
end today. they're coming. sorry, who's speaking this with someone, the anti war protests? the small one is the problem with the legal what they need permission you mean? even if it's just 5 people according to is really long on the protest with over 50 participants requires a permit to proceed. which we did not august the i don't know when we were waiting for you. they just run away in fear of the tension. although it is not in the authority of these men, the activists dispersed, slipping into the fabric of the city like shadows. but the protest is not over. we
6:18 am
catch them 20 minutes later in another part of the city. and here again, unpleasant encounters with people passing by, supporting the war, slamming the protest. there's one states before us. the silver reading of some sort of government building does come us getting rid of them. yeah. by the process of getting rid of it from us we unfortunately it's not some, it's 30000 people in the, of the yellow. everything that they said they were the same. old recent polls show the significance majority was really support the idea of the defensive in guys, i'm physical with them to palestinian sources, claimed thousands of lives, including civilians, children among them. if you'll say the news channels, you'll see the people that are coming to the news channels and there's something
6:19 am
about killing guidelines about the bus, a clean thing. they probably bring wash you to thinking that the that it's okay to kill 30000 people in god. so this is not just the one off of my spell of madness, genocidal madness by the continuation of an ongoing process. and we wanted stop. the protest skips to another location and then it's over. for tonight the activists so happy. no one was detained. that means all of them will take to the streets again the next evening to prove they exist. and so does the alternative point of view. ray from ocean isle to revolting from high 5 or 20 pos the out here in moscow with the 3 west african states of molly. but can a fast so a need share, a modeling, the idea of forming a confederation. the plan has been discussed at a joint meeting. back in september, the trio had already become members of the newly created alliance of the site.
6:20 am
health states designed to defend against external aggression, move payment bit, the car and confrontation with the regional echo watch block of west african nations. in january, the 3 countries formerly quit the group, instead choosing to deepen co operation with each other and even discuss the introduction of a common currency live on each. it has been to choose the critical off equal was for slapping sanctions on the countries. and as bout, never to return to back to be such a huge on the part of echo was, renter's is obsolete effective and capable of responding to the legitimate interests an expiration of the resilient populations of this i help just because we're members of the block, the food of medicine supply was cut off, power was also cut in our own funds have been frozen. so we're consulted with our friends and it's a hell on exiting the block to better the life of our citizens. that we should leave a block that is answerable to the foreign countries. so we're withdrawing our membership
6:21 am
from the blog and will never return to the union in each area. and that transitional leaders also set the days of his countries involvement with eco wassa now consigned to history. john or if it's ready, if the newly formed a liars of the house announced its withdrawal from a course, the group in which includes molly, missouri and for jennifer also is blaming a co us for decade and for me found in principles of san abra county. the vacuum is f, west of boundary to foreign powers, and of abandoning members who try to establish security in their punches on their own left for us, reject the beast claims, describing them as plays left at one spot. breaking away will have consequences for regional trades and security. meanwhile, the members of the ally and say it would have great prospect, the costs of the associates on small flexible structures and even a potential problem for establishing federal ration. i call for courage. we must
6:22 am
have the courage to take the step of forming a federation between the states of elliptical government charter which constitute the alliance of the states of the health. the alliance could benefit from more direct corporation compared to the complex institutions and collective dream, or because deadlines also wants to treat on economy and monitor rigidity and to get rid of colonial current with a proposed single car. as a quote for health coverage is a step out of this call. nice ation measure molly and we can have fossil f monitor experts. and at the appropriate time, we will decide currency is assigned to sovereignty, and the lines of the health states are engaged in a process of recovering their total sovereignty. there is no longer any question of our states being the cash count of france. so how redone it has screamed the hot spots of an ongoing when she had this insurgency about the gap in 2003 in 2014 missouri. molly's work in a fossil job in march. any a straight up a g 5. so i have with frank support to save of rep out in the region,
6:23 am
but the alliance of the house space declared the organization ineffective and withdrew the chief pipes. the house was laid are dissolved. it has to be said that after almost 9 years of existence, the g 5 saw how organization is struggling to achieve its objectives, working at faucet, and usually air will maintain their dynamic corporation. in particular, within the lines of saw how states to make always the heal in space. however, airport said it will continue to pursue dialogue with the alliance in a bit to reverse the decision. so mostly a, b, r, t, a border material, lanesha air based of foreign affairs on list abdullah mooney. he believes the steps, the 3 countries are taken to break away from the pos directly via tool. the sense of independence. to me please, this is on the elements of sovereignty. as long as you don't have your own currency, you're not suffering. and the long time obviously we will move away from the c, f, a frank because as we state, we want to be solver in the c, f,
6:24 am
a frank is from it was created in front printed in from. so we want to be free from front and therefore from everything that says colonialism including car and c. we are a $70000000.00 inhabitants and we want to pay the weight is a bit difficult for the prospect for exciting. because we know that all 3 countries have something special that of african countries, downtown in africa, media has oil. molly has enough gold. these 3 countries can produce a 300 tons of going to get. so i think the prospect's a good. the advantages would be done right away when you're going to break with the old on to the sake of a new order in its original to you say, well, the issue is that the siler lines is discussing today. have a look, sat through the prism of originality. it is totally original. there is no external influence in it. the conflict in ukraine is a direct result of kias pandering to the west. well, it's not me saying it that's the timing. focus of russia's top. diplomats so great,
6:25 am
i've heard of, we've been taking partner in a conference, assessing the past 10 years since the euro, my done crew ukraine, the keys, the less the rates of the key for sort is earned to nationally recognize becker, starting from the modern court even earlier american and british advisors are seeking the most departments, including the security service and now it has already come in place. no one is surprised by this practice. they sit there and make sure that money is not stolen, although no one will ever stop to see what the situation in ukraine is. a good example of what spends her in the west and the thoughtless desire to fit into the system of political and economic coordinates. by any means leads to, as far as we know, the repeat external actions service has made recommendations for ukraine, which proceed from the fact that it will not be possible to win with the methods that ukraine is currently using. and ukraine will loose. so it's necessary to bet on the transfer of even more langridge weapons to crank so that it can reach the heart of brush up a little. yeah, a lot of having truth problems, right? there is always straight comments from a, so get off or off. let's get details now with all these are shot to do was he would
6:26 am
just take us through some of the key points that for the 4 minutes to have to say he certainly didn't appear to be holding back. he was certainly not holding back a really wide ranging discussion, talking and touching on so many different points for in yes. going to take you through them. now it talks about the potential piece still between russia and ukraine, saying russia has said time and time again. it is open to negotiations with ukraine . he said the problem here is that it's presidents lensky who signed into power. i mooring any potential negotiations with russia and you also talked about previous deals with the west not being respect that you specifically mentioned, nato expansion saying that nato expansion was never meant to mean military targets . miller string faces in the new countries that it was expanding to. and that's exactly what's happened over the years. and she talked about to minsk agreement saying, you know, these were agreements that would do to protect the residents who live in the
6:27 am
regions of the domed boss. and as we now know from a former french and german politicians, that these agreements were actually being used to stable russia while ukraine was more a mood to be able to, they say defend themselves. so she said, you know, we're talking about pressing pretends, recent interview with us during this talk a call so that you know, the relations with west can be restored, but it's now the bull is in the west quotes when it comes to this on the heels, a tool to find the peace negotiations that were taking place back in april of 2022 saying essentially everybody was ready to sign on the dotted line. but the anglo saxons, he means the west to specifically bar stone, some stuff but that deal. and he said, all the discussions now about potential petite peace negotiations are all dependent on those negotiations. being on the terms that she ev,
6:28 am
once that's how to listen to what he has to say, a chest with ss now they're trying to seduce by and large. i can think of no other word, all the countries of the world injury and they're trying to force them into support the absolutely that and so called to landscape. these formulas, as the essence of which is that pressure should stand click eventually return to the borders of 90. 91 for the russian leadership will go on trial. russia will pay reparations. the way it is clear to everyone that this is an empty and simply unwise initially at the very least, but in order to lower normal countries to understand what is happening. in addition to this point, i mentioned, they threw in some supposedly mutual provisions, sufficient security added to security, new to a security for research changing from an attorney. issues. half of the time causes are supposedly neutral and the rest are the ones i mentioned. it is clear that they're considered as a whole, but when the countries of the global south and the global east or lower to the meetings that are organized to promote this electric piece, formerly, they're told so well, we understand that you don't like it. we understand that you say that without flush right there is no point in discussing anything like you will just support to the
6:29 am
security assign one point. it is an app. so it would find interesting instead of a lot of actually question whether these all kids terms or in fact, these terms that have been set by the west. you said western countries office doing a patrol about a policy of divide and conquer. and as a result, they pushing countries in 2 conflicts. he said, western countries say, you know, the not fighting against russia yet. they supplying ukraine with weapons, weapons that have long range use that can reach in to russia. they're also uh, changing ukrainian soldiers using their own military to pass on tactics. so is the question as to whether the west is actually really involved in this conflict. i need also to file the losses of life in ukraine saying move the costs of the soldiers that they were, and ukraine prior to the starts of the conflict. all no longer that meeting any glorious and she described it. and she says that it's clear that she has is not in
6:30 am
control of what's happening. he said, actually even prior to the you room, light and true, back in 2014, the west was already, you know, using you quite enough. it's puppets. a global mr. i think just the main thing, an award strategy and a strategy is not being decided and key if at all group is trying to do something as quickly as possible to end this drawing with rushes defeat, it is essentially serving the interest of the united states and not caring at all about its own interest. what could the economic indicators look at the negative growth recession leading your opinion, economies, and every single, probably become clear, but all this is kimberly, it is accepted without complaint. no objections are raised. and remember how after the north term explosions, which were announced by bite and in advance, schultz went to washington to take about what apparently he was told not to make a fuss and returned back without any press conference. and you heard that all of this has been to the detriment of ukraine the detriment of its economy. he said.
