the most of the and the russian forces push ahead at the front steering minds less by retreating ukrainian soldiers. while the french president double don on calls to send troops to you train on sparks controversy for trying to get nato allies on board. also ahead of india stays at stepping up trade with russia. in defiance of western pressure, we sit down to discuss the prospect with the spokesperson of india's roommate. probably not be any issue from the listing board. he does not see any certificate or dictation from the rest of the work regarding it's at times with russia or any other country. and also among the weeks big

stories involved way pick. so it's a controversial usaid agency from the country after washington slop sanctions on the african nations top officials the live for most go this sunday, march the 10th welcome to the review of the weeks big news stories on right up to the moment developments we start with the ukraine conflict where i must go say's its troops are advancing in the southern front of the sap rogia region. the russian defense minister has released footage as well, of its engineers clearing the grounds from ukrainian mines and other munitions stickler. the

it does with a fail unless this was taken as a trophy by a comrade roof during the advance on the same front. it's an american grenade, and this is a german split, 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. therefore, such minds are the most difficult to destroy. 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 from script deployed troops to ukraine of russian forces at funds towards p of or odessa. that's according to the french president speaking behind closed doors with local parking leaders and partners this week. earlier,

the money with my chrome tried to raleigh fellow you politicians for a possible military intervention. but there appears to be little appetite for that in neighboring germany. or is that the whole do? we have certainly approaching the time and now you're up 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. so we have to be meet the challenge of history and match the courage. it implies 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 or be more to having more coverage or less coverage. this is something which does not really help solving the issues

we have last month. mr. mccall sent shock waves across the west when he said nato could send trips to ukraine. friends has reportedly started training its soldiers for a potential loss with a powerful opponent for the countries allies are in no rush to do the same with several states openly saying may have no such plans after the french liter double done on his calls, washington reiterate that its refusal the but boots on the ground sounds words and he certainly has every right inability 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 and 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, and so you create any well,

this all comes against the backdrop of an intercepted call released by r t. the reveal got an explosive conversation between 12 german generals. they discuss plans to send a long range missiles to ukraine to destroy russia's crime in bridge. brendan admitted the call was authentic, but has also tried to shift the blame for the scandal to the criminal. glued us, that's the telephone. i mean, the reason that the phone call could still be recorded in the ranks of the air force is due to an individual application error. not all participants adhere to the secure dialing procedure as prescribed. according to current knowledge, data was leaked from the participant in singapore and he was connected via an authorized connection, i. e, virtually via an open connection. this is exactly what putting wants to achieve over the course of several months, or at least several weeks. he sets 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. like i said last time line this because on monday, the german and boss there was something to the russian foreign ministry to offer an explanation. he declined to give any comments as he was sworn by journalists upon entering the building where berlin has been struggling for damage control. after that, leak call was released by ortiz editor in chief last week. just a reminder in about 30 minutes conversation german or for stuff including 2 generals, laid out their plans to send powers cruise missiles to ukraine, to discuss the potential targets, including the crime in bridge, and said it would take thousands of missiles to bring it done. well, the verified call also saw that mulling over how to ensure

a plausible deniability for berlin itself and also visited. 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 torres 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. might. 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. deli called proves that germany is preparing military operations against russia. that is the direct conclusion from the russian foreign ministry

spokesman marie is a hold of us slum berlin's intentions. and also pointed out how similar moves ended for the european country during world war 2. those still will be evelyn uh know what was presented to the world community shows the long time and planned intention of the need to country gemini, to conduct the 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 a 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 explanations to your nose. and that should be an open conversation between the land, between geminus specials and their own population, and excuse me,

with the entire international community. because what the whole world has hud, and this will be a 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 to remind each other of the glorious as a belief, cost of their lives loss and what is the scores post of the lift will affect if they talk about previous calling about experience. it's the 2nd world war and it turns out the experience of those he is still alive today. and this still winning to applies, but it's a different dimensional altogether. for any issue with well away from officials to citizens themselves, pools show that more germans favor and then to the ukraine conflict. we negotiated settlement versus seeing the fighting drug out. that's as active as from the countries free sucks and the party filed the lawsuit against the military stuff called red homes, in lovely conversation,

accusing them of trying to carry out an act of aggression. as a revelation spread around the world, berlin has been struggling to contain the full lot. here's the take of our to come computer ritual marston. so it's real. the german government tells the western press that has our long tape of germany's air force chief plotting with fellow military brass to deliver long range torres missiles to ukraine and blow up the crime in bridge in a way that gives chance for all. i've schultz plausible deniability is indeed authentic. they got caught wanting to launch themselves down the slippery slope towards direct more 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. every one involves a bathrobe for modesty. the reports a 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, the committee of inquiry cannot be excluded so much for all that plausible deniability that was being built up in the boonies died recently with all that theatre. where shaw says government voted down and opposition resolution to specifically give new frame tours 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. his 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 pin stories or their government from explicitly outlined 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 inside russian territory apparently, they just couldn't be bothered explicitly writing it in and now german politicians are spelling out why perhaps they showed us the top towns of legion boned to sweat offices with the german cruise me solves taurus 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 taurus 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 in our school asian 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 desktop version of 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 plotting against what he claims are as explicit which is not to deploy tyrese's and even more explicitly contemplating a terrorist act against russia or the fact that everyone now knows about that. the bonus dog, special commissioner to the military, eva whole goal from schultz, his very own social democratic party, says that 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 fit bawling about blowing stuff up risk getting germany into yet another world war. the events of the last few days,

once again, 2 houses, lot of them are poor doing is trying to have a mess of the negative implants are now open society, especially in your money through these information destabilized station and spanish . 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 facts. with high ranking offices 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, uh no, 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 of his torrijos stated last night, that all of these officers 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 drum inside or from the partition in all of these various steps of involvement. for now, the volatile situation to run this approach in nuclear power plant was discussed and saw chief this week with president put in hosting international atomic energy agency chief, a rough feel, good off see for talks the russian leader said moscow was doing everything possible to ensure the safety of the nuclear facility, mr. gross, for his part describe the talks as professional and frank. you printing truth top

shall the territory of the power plant numerous times in the past 2 years. but i'll feel good. i'll see you later. smoke exclusively to r t l, outlined what his agency is doing to help we keep the site specific. since we established that 5 basic principles at the un security council that has been a direct showing on the plant itself, i've seen close the case before. so if that happened, now, my reaction would be very different. because now i have a mandate to look into this, to ask questions to try to determine what has happened before. that was not the case because the i use the caps or how that simply a new pair safety security remedy, which was more, which was narrower and more simple. now we have said the i a is going to be looking into the 6 and to the extent possible to indicate what has happened that have been

some mine or it be so dangerous. i would say in terms of perhaps some cro drones heating and medical dar which is the village near by the blind model on those we haven't been able to gather you know, we are apart from any of these. we are a group of inspectors and when we pronounce ourselves, it must be on the basis of our own independently gathered information. if i don't have enough, i can have a hypothesis. said i do have like many people have, but i cannot say this has happened or point fingers when i don't have it for the limits in my hands to say this is clearly the source of the attack. i think here at the end of the day that is clarity on what are the consequences of something like this. and these is what i keep saying when do we have information, for example,

as it happened just a few days ago for those sort of we, what do we have been saying? when do we have the information intelligence information or any of the information that that are meaning that the possibilities that there could be meaning that a movement we, we ring the on about how do we say attention, we are watching. nothing should happen. and we are trying to play a deterrent role in this, we are not perfect maybe, but much better than nothing stable friendly about. so india is foreign policy chief, has some dump relations with russia, amid the backdrop of western pressure over the ukraine conflict. everyone conducts a relationship based on past experiences. if i look at the history of post 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 as well. india is expanding cooperation with russia

despite western sanctions against moscow. u. s. and e. u officials have been calling for a cross on indian enforce a russian commodities. my colleagues saskia taylor. talk with facebook person for india link parking chippy. we spoke done. they broke down, excuse me, hon. law school on the daily are doing business in defiance of the machine. appreciated his student. i know you don't face all the lives of the biggest rush. yeah, we did for india and media media for russia. the halls stick to the starting from the face starting from investment and i saw the strong investment in boy starting the up into a way for us yet. the important point in this is the foreign policy. you may not rush she all the way, mary boston, please not be any pressure from the list. and board does not see any

certificates or the patients 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 photos. text is all in eddie ohio. kaufman author truly of defense, which has been not really for long, but i do specifically want to ask you about a new daddy's position. he's that the, the ukraine complex. we've got president mot, chrome saying that we're not ruling out sending western troops to ukraine with harring taps of a job and officials talking about helping ukraine, low up russian infrastructure. new daddy says we want this conflict to be resolved . do you see resolution coming before escalation? at this point in time, it isn't just the piece that the resolution of the conflict is

a t o is. this is not the for any emission uh without the space the country to hire people to do the via rather this is the buyer to control the buyer. so the country which is a, the steep border this got to make a lot of se, the wall to the device or the metrics so that both sides of the d, b and b, like even use us pressure on the officials across africa has sparked a fresh confrontation in zimbabwe, re house, expel the controversial us agency from the country after washington sanctioned the southern african nations top officials. and it is not the only diplomatic conflict . the white house is fueling on the continent as ortiz and live who you convey reports. the sanctions a once again the whip of choice, enforcing myriads off. you is foreign policy goals. and bob ways,

the latest targets back in 2001 the u. s. mournton on slots on how about it. so it's so cold noise would be jumping on the entities and bob with bad rick and with its own draft, essentially the 2002, many events have taken place since been but one issue that's amazing phones 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 measles to have fluid progress inhibited economist recovery and pine is the most vulnerable in societies. equally astounding is wisdom. countries failure to come to terms with the reality that the land reform and resettlement program. the main reason for these sections will not be reversed. the have thoughts and repeatedly tried to reverse that. you started programs through political tools or confrontation with this in public government. but those efforts have proven futile. it cannot be right. and that's a load and a healthy basis for conducting international relations or building friendship for

a country. however, mightily it views itself to slammed the innocent nationals of other nations while also maligning those same nations for daring to be independent in silver and, and for reversing a painful legacy of settler colonialism in line with the united nations tratta. the sanctions of slowing down our progress inhibiting our economic recovery and punishing the poorest and most vulnerable in our society. so unit 2 of the above with, as i've seen for my us president george bush, the acura takes off the sanctions and bar rock obama together with donald trump leave office 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 rally behind. so bob was pushed for the lifting of what many c as in the legal economy can ball go. 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 gone to itself has suffered from

wisdom sanctions with the you is attempting to exert a political control over the country, accusing it of human rights abuses. last year. washington, would you, you kind of prefer rachel trade status aiming to punish kampala for u. n. t l g p to q knows that they defy in prison with severe need slamming the move is justified defending the countries the 70 days external prussia. it is unfortunate that the world bank and other actors dare to want to coerce us into a band and in our phase 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 your gannons, that uganda will develop with or without loans. another country you to be targeted to the rich your long stigmatized as a regional spoiler by washington. it's section for supporting taylor bas groups.

despite years of screwed to me by monitoring groups, the yielding little evidence of those claims that it was excluded from the suff payment system. with a you is closing via comes off of richmond to pro magic missions and a number of states and causing difficulties for the impulse of ex fees and mid us into the country. this unilateral sanction that ships 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 some inches, 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 executives in many countries, but have sanctions achieved vehicles. despite the efforts, the targeted states retained suffering and independent domestic and foreign policy is bolding ties with the global solves and russia, you essentially have also cause the 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 crude evidence appears to be clear, sanctions on the african continent, a failed to achieve the aims and by damaging local livelihoods may have had the opposite effect. as those states behind the course of misses failed to then the lesson time and time again. with my colleague mike ok, watch a spoke with these and bob, when governments international communications director to urge washington to concentrate on its own problems and stuff, natalie and african. and what do you have the other things above, which is

a suitable americans like 12 inches through a little position by 2 types. they want a saw that the best the games are for independence. so the washing tony, she's not in the, the, in the affairs of, of the initiatives and they should respect the both the window differently as far as policy formulation is concerned. then the lending form from john is that particular, you know, benchmarking a position, the whole saw a book, the consent amongst all the people that we go to a land into. and ma'am, by giving take our legs on y'all's horses, no man's of the amount of functions painful meant that 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 functions to affect zimbabwe as a country? so uh, this functions imperfect to the education sector, idea of afraid that are out sick time. i think that, you know, it's trends and the, the, the, the did, how can press start so they have affected manufactured. so for life to sunday, including the, the, the, the banking system. but as in bob way is not for the good sense of what is in the context of all this, you know, kept us trophies that are created by the rest of the month. way, as i certainly said, come back to me as, as in form of uh, the mining sector. we have seen that to just been a very busy lansing that has actually been complimenting a, you know, a pain insight doesn't feel like you're going on to ensure that, you know, people get to the, as somebody's in timed, ensure that the industry is alive,

that and all these other things, so yes, wirelessly, as small as the sanctions of the mortgage in the states. but i should also flow to the government for these policy. visions that do been pro tough throughout the toners and sector don't agree college to have been defining st. the end, do you mention your investment of prospects because in bob which is being focused on not missing alternatives, capital be under the big ones. they're based on what's new institutions. so some of these issues that you can put across by the government really. com is in the end to say comes in take measures to, to, to the sanctions. they've done this of the design initiative because our people today was the 1002. i intentionally meant that. ready most people would not be going to school, but they both because it does actually didn't happen in the context of fuzzy but a it's a sound, a visit to the world is a part studios next. done today. i've sounded as prominent us to call them as

homeless, hotly is democracy being weapons, really engage in conversation this one and it gets going involvement, stick the tone and welcome to was a part of the populace singles. you can never get an alpha. what you don't have, but that doesn't store people or whole nations from trying to get more balls and more than economy. and today's politics uh,

private candidates own goals and objectives that have little to do.
