to the russian forces pushed ahead of the front clearing mines last volley, red preaching ukrainian, salters. while the french president doubles down on calls to send troops to ukraine, sparks confir versus for trying to get nate to outlines on board. as india say, is it stepping up trade with russia in defiance of western pressure? we sit down to discuss the prospects with the spokes. personally, i think the as in pot f b, i not be any patient from work. he does not see any part of the patient from the rest of the work regarding it at a tire shop or any other kind of recall that might be found. also,

among the weeks big stories zimbabwe kicked saw the controversial usaid agency from the country. dr. washington slop sanctions on the african nations. top officials, the life must go, they sunday, march the 10th welcome to the review of the weeks big news stories and right up to the moment developing. as we begin with the ukraine conflict for moscow say's its troops are advancing on the southern front of the zap, rosie at region. the russian defense ministry has released footage of its engineers tearing the ground from ukrainian mines and other munitions. the, the,

[000:00:00;00] the, it does a fail unless this was taken as a trophy by a comrade roof during the advance on the same front gets an american grenade. and this is a german splish, a grenade. will someone put to the enemy mostly uses em? 70 mines. these are american mines, they are deployed remotely, approaching them is forbidden, just and so on. i mean you to a such remote mining affects the magnetic field and therefore such minds are the most difficult to destroy theirs. as you do not know how close you can approach them, therefore, we have to use some new technologies of our own, and we figure out how to destroy it all to the front cut deployed troops to ukraine . if russian forces advance towards p f or odessa, and that's according to the french president speaking behind closed doors with

local party leaders in paris this week. earlier a manual, my chrome tried to raleigh fellow you politicians for a possible military intervention. but there seems to be little appetite for that in the bring germany. is that the whole don't? we are certainly approaching the time and now europe, when we must not be cowards. we never want to see the dramas to come. the fact that war has returned to us soil the powers that have become on stuff people are extending the threat every day, attacking us seals, we have to be meet the challenge of history and match the coverage that implies so . who can offer more, who is more coverage, is who is more, whatever it is, not about them who wants to do more? have to focus on that. this is what ukraine really needs the most. we don't need to really uh, from my perspective, at least discussions about boots on the ground are be more to having more coverage

or less coverage. this is something which does not really help solving the issues we have well last month mr. mccall and sent shock waves across the west when he said nato could send trips to ukraine. from sellers reportedly started training its soldiers for a potential flush with a powerful opponent. but the country's allies are in no rush to do the same with several states openly saying they have no such months after the french president double done on his goals. washington reiterated it's refusal to, but it's on the ground problems, words and, and he certainly has every right inability to, to speak for himself and his views. all i can do is speak for president by commander in chief and the president has been clear. we have been extraordinarily strong in leading international efforts to support you credit for the last 2 years . he's also been very clear since the very beginning of this war. there's not going

to be us troops on the ground fighting inside you create any will. this all comes against the backdrop of an intercepted call released by a r t that revealed on explosive conversation between top german generals. they discuss problems defend long range missiles to ukraine, to destroy russia's crime, me, and bridge. berlin admitted the call was authentic, but there's also tried to shift the blame for the scandal to the, the glue dust us, the telephone. i mean, the reason that the phone call could still be recorded in the range of the air force is due to an individual application air. not all participants adhere to the secure dialing procedure as prescribed. according to current knowledge, data was leased from the participant in singapore. he was connected via in an authorized connection, i. e, virtually via an open connection. this is exactly what kootenai wants to achieve over the course of several months, or at least several weeks. he steps the agenda for what we're discussing here in germany, whether it is support for ukraine in one form or another,

how successful ukraine is, whether it can win the war or not at the time and time again. this is an agenda imposed from outside by certain events. i am very angry about this story among other things because we have been dealing with only this topic for 3 days. well, on monday, the german boss it or was something to the russian foreign ministry to offer an explanation. he declined to give any comments as he was swarmed by journalists upon entering the building. well, berlin has been scrambling for damage control after the lead called was released by ortiz editor in chief last week. just a reminder in the 38 minutes conversation german or for stuff including 2 generals, laid out their plans to send tal risk cruise missiles to ukraine. they discuss potential targets, including the crime in rich said it would take dozens of ms. silas,

to bring it on. the verified call also saw them mulling over hard to ensure a plausible deniability for berlin itself. and also results. i came to the conclusion that there are 2 interesting targets, the bridge in the east and the ammunition depots above the bridge and the east is hard to reach. it's a rather small target, but the tourist can do it. the ammunition depots can also be hit. we need to ensure that from the very beginning there is no mention that would make us part of the conflict. i'm exaggerating a bit, but if we tell the minister now that we plan meetings and we'll drive by call from poland, so that no one notices that's already participation and we won't do that. on monday, do you think it is possible to hope that ukraine will be able to do everything on its own? after all, it is known that there are many people there in civilian clothes who speak with an american accent. the lee called proves that germany is preparing military

operations against russia. that's a direct conclusion from the russian foreign ministry spokesman re, is the heart of us slum berlin's intentions. and also pointed out how similar moods ended for the european country during world war 2. those still will, uh, but if you have it in uh, know what was presented to the world community shows the long time and plans intentional. the need to country gemini, to conduct military operations against the russian federation. it was literally described step by step how terrorist attacks against civilian infrastructure would be carried out. and the speakers were clearly aware of the fact that they were discussing the bombing of we civilian bridge. and they specifically spoke on this topic saying that the bridge is of great political importance. that is the z, she should know, tying in the yeah. and we proceed from the fact the gemini is obliged to give explorations to your more nose. and there should be an open conversation between

violin, between germany specials and their own population, and excuse me, with the entire international community. because what the whole world has hud, and this, oh dear recording is presented in its original races and a numerous number of questions for germany in general, especially forgive me the very german officials who are there on this recording. you remind each other of the glorious as a belief post of their lives golf and what is this glorious post of the left wolfish? if they talk about the previous comb about experience, it's the 2nd world war and it turns out the experience of those he is still alive today. and that's still willing to apply it. but it's a different dimensional altogether. board issue, but we don't want to show you this as well because polls nationwide want to show that word germans favor an end to the ukraine conflict through a negotiated settlement versus seeing the fucking dry god that's as active as from the e u countries free suction a party by law,

so it's against the military stuff. caught red handed in the conversation, accusing them of trying to carry out an act of aggression. as the revelation spread around the world, berlin has been struggling to contain the full lot. here's the take of our take on computer ritual. marsden. so it's real. the german government tells the western press the half hour long tape of germany's air force. chief, plodding with fellow military brass to deliver long range tourist missiles to ukraine and blow up the crime in bridge in a way that gives chancellor off schultz plausible deniability is indeed authentic. they got caught wanting to launch themselves down the slippery slope towards direct war with russia, but ended up hitting a snag ripping their pants and now their butts are hanging out for the entire world, the sea and the opposition. christian democrats are not keen on tossing. everyone involves a bathrobe for modesty. the reports of strange in 2 respects. on the one hand,

security related conversations are obviously being overheard by the russians. on the other hand, the chancellor may justify his rejection of taurus deliveries with a misrepresentation. the federal chancellor must explain himself to the bonus tag. in this situation, a committee of inquiry cannot be excluded so much for all that plausible deniability that was being built up in the buddhist. died recently with all that theatre, where shows his government voted down an opposition resolution to specifically give the ukraine tourist missiles only to then introduce their own motion instead that more vaguely specified long range weapons. without explicitly mentioning the key word, defense minister boris. the stories didn't even know what was in that motion. he said, because well, he didn't write, it may be, it includes torres is or maybe it doesn't. who knows? not the german defense minister. in any case, not that anyone with stopping schultz or pet stores or their government from

explicitly outlining the transfer to ukraine of german missiles of exceptional 500 kilometer range capable of doing what it's french or british calendar parts couldn't. that is straight deep. and sy, russian territory, apparently they just couldn't be bothered explicitly writing it in. and now german politicians are spelling out why perhaps they should have. you talked terms of legion boned to sweat offices with a gentleman through his me, solves torres and russian territory on the compatible with basic law. no with international law. these madness must be stopped immediately from despair. generals are said to have made an assessment that the crime in bridge could be attacked with the german tourist missiles. the symbolic acts would drag germany deep into the war notes of torres delivery, the league effectively underscore as an unexplained discrepancy between army brass and what they're saying. on one hand, i'm what schultz has been saying publicly about not wanting an escalation with

russia over ukraine on the other. now the chancellor is demanding answers, is just not very clear what exactly he's demanding answers to stop. what is being reported. there is a very serious matter, and that is why it is now being investigated very carefully, very intensively and very quickly that is also necessary. what's the more upset about the fact that his own military was bonding against what he claims are as explicit wishes not to deploy tyrese's and even more explicitly contemplating a terrorist act against russia or the fact that everyone now knows about it. the buddhist dog, special commissioner to the military, eva whole goal from adults, his very own social democratic party sunset the week itself is the real outrage. and that it's the guys in charge of keeping military communications secure that need comprehensive training, not the high ranking german officers whose bit balling about blowing stuff up. risk

getting germany into yet another world war. the events of the last few days once again to how let them are poor doing is trying to have a mess of with negative implants are now open society, especially in your money through these information, the stables station and espionage. yeah. maybe after they finish looking into how put in for part of the we blew up his own gas supply to germany, then they can tackle the big mystery of how put in hijacked the mines of german military officers for a plot to blow up his own bridge. my 1st reaction to that was the total disgust. they were just trying to turn the table around and the argument was, well the, there was the scandal is not the contents. it's not. the fact with high ranking offers us have total disregard for an international conventions. have to go through this or even for security regulations, how and where they're shopped, discuss such things. if they do,

i know it's uh that the entire narrative. and the whole thing is, this, the scandal is the russians are apparently a recording such conversations this, this from, from that perspective as the scandal and the defense minister historians stated last night, that's all of these offices will not have any disciplinary measures. they will not be punished. maybe they will even be upgraded. uh, that's what i said, and that's there is so that the narrative has changed as no embarrassment and a sofa. we have not seen any embarrassment when it came from the german side or from the partition in all of the scenario, steps of involvement. if use of austria is former a foreign minister running, i thought report not stable and friendly. now this how india is foreign policy chief, has some dump relations with russia. i made the buck drop of western pressure over the ukraine company. everyone conducts

a relationship based on past experiences. if i look at the history of pipes, the independence india, russia has never heard of our interest. we've always had a stable and very friendly relationship. and our relationship with moscow today is based on this experience of india is expanding cooperation with russia, despite the western sanctions against most go u. s. and e. u officials have been calling for a price on an indian in ports russian commodities like colleague saskia taylor itself, with the spokesperson for india thrilling barbara to janita a party who broke down and must go anew daily or doing business in defiance of the west. the rush, appreciate his student and know, you know, face all kinds of lives and then videos, right? yeah. the for india, india has been do it for us. yet the halls stick to the starting from defense starting from investment. and i was starting from investment in boy, starting the to

a boy from the ship. the important point in this is for india foreign policy. you may not russia old of a very important, please. not be any pressure from listings or india does not see any certificates or dictations from the rest of the work regarding it's at a time with russia or any other kind of default that might be able to continue to do engage with russia to explore those active off energy off, i will call them off the crew here on the defense, which has been really for long. but i do specifically want to ask you about a new dentist position. he's a visa ukraine conflict. he bought president mike crow saying that we're not ruling out sending west and troops to ukraine with hair and taps of them. and officials talking about helping ukraine, low up russian infrastructure. you jenny says we want this conflict to be resolved

. do you see resolution coming before escalation at this point in time? is the trust of the global piece. the resolution of the conflict is that it's, she absolutely is. this is not the for any a nation without leaving any space, it can be to be able to do the fire or other this is in the wire to control the fire. so there's a big country which is a steep border this car like a lot of the se in the wall shooting the device or the metrics so that both sides the d, b and b, use us pressure on officials across africa has sparked a fresh confrontation in zimbabwe re how is expelled the controversial us agency from the country after washington sanction the southern african nations top officials. it's not the only diplomatic conflict. the whitehouse is fueling on the

conflict, as ortiz new look for. you can get reports. sanctions a once again, the weapon of choice to in full say myriads off. you is foreign policy goals and some bob ways, the latest targets back in 2001 the u. s. lawrence and on slot on how to operate through. it's so cold news would be jumping on the n c's and bumper bandwidth and with its own draft, essentially the 2002, many events have taken place since then. but one issue that's amazing. phone is and bob was relations. what's the waste is the continued suffering of the country's population. as a result of wisdom powers refusal to remove those music to have slow progress inhibited economists recovery and time is the low risk the most vulnerable in societies. equally astounding is wisdom. countries failure to come to terms with the reality that the land reform and resettlement programs. the main reason for these sections will not be 1st have thoughts and repeatedly tried to reverse that

to started programs through political tools or confrontation with this in baldwin government. but those gifts was to prove it futile. it cannot be right mister, loaded a healthy basis for conducting into nash no relations or building friendship for a country. however, mightily abuse itself to sloan, the innocent nationals of other nations, while also maligning those same nations for daring to be independent and sovereign . i'm for reversing a baneful legacy of secular colonialism in line with the united nations trotter. the sanctions of slowing down our progress inhibiting economic recovery and punishing the poorest and most vulnerable in our society. so unit 2 of the above was a scene for my us president george bush. the actor takes off the sanctions and brock obama together with donald trump. leave offers, having failed to achieve regime change in some, bob, we present vital support of the senses. has also been in vain. that says, african countries continue to raleigh behinds. the bump is pushed for the lifting

of what many c as in the legal economy can ball go. a small man cannot negotiate with a big man. europe and countries have been putting sanctions on zimbabwe, which has been suffering for 20 years. you're going to itself has suffered from wish to sanctions with the you is attempting to exec political control over the country, accusing it of human rights abuses. last year, washington, would you, you kind of prefer rachel trade stages aiming to punish kampala for n. c l g. b to q knows that they defy and prison was severely slamming. the move is justified, defending the countries, the southern states, it gave 6 to no prussia. it is unfortunate that the world bank and other actors dare to want to coerce us into a band. and in our face, culture, principles and sovereignty using money, they really under estimate all africans, we do not need pressure from anybody to know how to solve problems in our society.

they are our problems. i want to inform everybody starting with you gannons that uganda will develop with or without loans. another country to be target to do the rich. yeah. long stigmatized as a regional spoiler by washington, ascension for supporting caleb excludes the despite years of screwed to me by monitoring groups which gilding little evidence of those claims that it was excluded from the suff payment system. with the you is closing the accounts of richmond to pro magic missions and a number of states and causing the code to use the for the impulse of expertise in medicine to the country. this unilateral sanction that shifts blame to and scape goat scare a trail on the basis of spurious allegations, is in contravention of international law. and constitutes a flagrant breach of the sovereignty, independence and liberation of peoples and nations. that the primary aim of the elicit and immoral sanctions is to inculcate suffering and starvation on the

population. so as to induce political unrest and instability is patently clear. over the past decades, western states have made such as they go to diplomatic weapons. the united states and the ropes in union administer. hundreds of section programs targeting thousands of individuals, companies, and economy, except as in many countries, but have sanctions achieved the goals. despite the efforts, the targeted states retain suffering and independent domestic and foreign policy is building ties with the global solves and russia. you essentially have also caused economy, collateral damage, sedans, economy being severely impacted, even often. some of those sanctions were lifted and even many struggling in new jersey after that, evidence appears to be clear. sanctions on the african continent failed to achieve the aims, and by damaging local livelihoods may have had the opposite effect. as those states

behind the course of miss has failed to learn the lesson time and time. and then we'll stay with this story because my colleague, mike called, chase, spoke with his and bob way, governments, international communications director, who urged washington to concentrate on its own problems on stop meddling in africa . what do you have any other sayings about? which is a suitable americans like 12 inches through a little position budget that they want. so that's the best the gains for independence. so the washing 2019 does see it in the affairs of other nations and they should respect the popular window display as far as policy formulation is concerned. then the landing form from john is particular. you know, benchmarking is position also the consent amongst all the people that we go to a land and never take alex horses. no mans of the amount of functions

meant at the amount of restrictions they impose in or not. oh, willing to go see guidance including our president, not zimbabwe holds the title, was the most sanctioned country in africa. now we understand the government had to ask washington not to impose the assumption that they would undermine the country. how do you expect this function is to effect zimbabwe as a country? so uh, this functions of affected our education sector idea of effect that are out sick time. i think that, you know, it's trends and the, the, the, the did. how can press start, they have affected manufactured so far, and i have 2 sons including the they do the thinking system. but as in bob way is not fold, it is all but is in the context of all this. you know, god does trophies that i created by the rest of the month, way as i suddenly said, they've come back to mesa's in form on file the mining sector. we have seen that to

just been a very resilient to say that just actually be complimenting of the, you know, painting sectors and for you're going on to ensure that, you know, people get to the, as somebody's in time to ensure that the industry is a live and all these other things, so yes, why this next monday is that the sanctions of the mortgage in your state. but i should also flow to the government for each policy cannot visions that you've been propped up throughout toners in the sector. don't agree college i don't even mining say the indian mentioning investment for prospects because and bob which is being focused on not missing alternative capital, be under the feet on their feet on the institutions. so some of these uh, issues that you have the product crossed by the government. really. com is in the end to say comes in take measures to, to do the sanctions thing done as of the design initiative because our temperature

died was the 1002. i didn't know it meant that i. ready most people would not be going to school by today, but because it is actually been happening in the context of fuzzy but also this week, these really present in service recruited 12 ultra orthodox jews, known as her ready for non luxury duty. the volunteer said they wanted to contribute to the gals award effort, but it is a divisive move for the religious community that's traditionally been exempt from military service. was there a middle east corresponding research that reports as well as rapidly growing 1200000 strong, ultra orthodox community or head ready form. in almost 13 percent of the country's population is at the center of intense debate. historically exempt from mandatory military service to prioritize religious studies. they are really community now faces rise in discontent and made the war in gaza. the while the religious leaders

emphasize the power of prayer and facing enemies. not all her ready supports. that stands, journalist cmt, farber is one of them, raised in a devout environment. he challenged the state of school and tradition by serving in the army and fulton the 2nd 11 or more. this is why do i say you will 2nd, now? you're going to fights. we don't want to just, we're going to play to some of the people except that the 7th of the 2nd of people said, well, you know what is spiritual, paying whatever than him you want to play, you can come and play the idea if we need to get a, do we believe that the feed plays you so i also believe, but i also believe of tween the come of we need to playing. you need to find some walk. so the 2nd one to 5 and get to on the village is a going to stay i'm, i'm, i'm play. it's not fair. it's not a clue. in 1948, when the head ready 1st receives exemption,

only 400 boys qualified to day. there are over 65 thousands. how many men aged $18.00 to $35.00 who could contribute to the country's defense beyond prayers, including 12 to 15018 year olds annually. who don't? attendee shivers or state funded religious schools, but still retained the privilege. in 2017 israel's high court, ruled that they already exemption law violates equality practices. the quote gave the government one year to pass a new law. 7 years on. no progress has been made. now the government has until the 1st of april to either extend the current decision or starting drafton, alto, also talks use into the military. increasingly, more politicians are addressing the issue last week for my defense minister benny guns, who is now a member of these really were a cabinet called and the heard it community to join the military found on the site . all the people of israel, all the parts of israeli society who should take part in serving the country of all

of us. the challenges ahead of us are great, and it is impossible to look into the eyes of those who serve and tell them that whatever it was before will remain with her ready to not listen to secular politicians. they listen to read bodies. yankee says those remedies will never officially encourage the youngsters. conscription in fear of losing control and voters. this is one of the things they know going to vote for holy father, big of enjoying the idea of the going to have different opinions. listen, the going to meet drove him between the going to meet gave the, going to me less bills. the going to meet this little premium. and when it goes to election, you're going to say, wait, i don't want to vote for a policy with doesn't people like to know the society. lady policies were going to be much weaker. they're going to have enough money. they don't, they don't gonna have enough power in the government. so they want to make sure the person everybody vote for them. second olsteen skin rather religion. and they don't
