[000:00:00;00] the, [000:00:00;00] the russian forces pushed ahead at the front clearing mines left by retreating, you printing in soldiers while the french president doubles down on paul to send troops to frame and sparks controversy for trying to get nato allies onboard. as india says, it's setting up trade with russia in defiance of western pressure. we sit down to discuss the prospect. so to such a person of india as ruling party, not be giving you permission from the listing board does not see any certificate

or big data from the rest of the work regarding it's either a shop or any other country called that much it also among the weeks big story is involved way, kicks out the controversial usaid mission from the country after washington slab sanctions on the african nations top of this old the are watching our to international. i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. we start with the ukraine complex, where moscow says its troops are advancing on the southern front of the separation of region. the russian defense industry has released footage of its engineers clearing the ground from ukrainian mines and other munitions. the,

the, [000:00:00;00] 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, or we have those, and this is a german splitter grenade. will someone put to the enemy mostly uses m 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 what we can we figure out how to destroy it all. so france could deployed troops to train a freshman forces advanced toward t of or a desa, as, according to the french president, speaking behind closed doors with local party leaders in paris this week. earlier

a menu, my crohn tried to rally fellow as you politicians for a possible military intervention. but there appears to be a little appetite for that in neighboring germany. is that the 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. we want success powers that have become on stuff people are extending the threat every day. attacking us conceals, 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, thought 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, 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 last one semester and microns and shockwave. it's across the west. when he said,

nato could send troops to ukraine. france has reported they started training and soldiers for a potential clash with a powerful opponents. but the countries allies are in no rush to do the same with several states openly saying they have no such plans. after the french that are doubled down on his calls, washington reiterated his refusal to put boots on the ground tom's words and then 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 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 inside u. k. i'm in a number of statements on nato troops being sent to the war zone. us president joe biden misspoke and admitted washington should have stayed out of ukraine before

quickly correcting himself. i don't make some mistake. american american made a mistake. we went after been logged to a job, but we shouldn't have gone into training. how many we should we should have got into the whole thing in a rack in afghanistan. it wasn't necessary. some a saying the biden confused ukraine would have gotten a strong, he did not, he can no longer hold back what everyone understands that the united states has blood really embarrassed itself with the ukrainian project. western country is discouraged. ukraine from assigning a peace agreement with russia. that's the statement made by some of our prime minister robert feed. so in his recent interview, or he also stated western tactics against russia are not working. he's a book, which i'm, it will do the demo. we are trying to open the topic of an immediate cease fire to stop fighting and the start of negotiations. i think it is better to portland to negotiating table for 10 years, then to leave the russians and ukrainians,

killing each other for 10 years. so the question is, once was, seems to me that the west is extremely supportive of this work. so this message originated in 2022 when some western countries discouraged ukraine from signing a disagreement with russia saying, let's use the war and you, queen, to we can russia. let's give you queen military and economic 8. let's impose sanctions on russia and we can russia internationally, politically, economically, and financially. and it's not working. what has been going on for 2 years? we are learning that russia's tutorial gains are greater than ukraine's the huge number of dead soldiers wounded soldiers on both sides. rush, how he's doing well economically and politically, president putting has a lot of support. so perhaps we have the right to ask whether the strategy of the west is a good way. i argue that the west strategy and ukraine is not working because of it . yeah. yeah, the loss is on the battlefield, it seemed to be pushing a growing number of people toward a negotiated solution to the complex in a recent interview. but frances stated, it's time for ukraine to negotiate

a peace deal. in my case. ok, april 4th. i believe that the one who sees the situation is stronger than the one who thinks of the people and has the courage to raise the white flag and to negotiate. and today it can be negotiated with the help of international powers. when you see that you are defeated, that things are not going well. you have to have the courage to negotiate, negotiate in time, look for some countries to act as a mediator, turkey 8, for example. don't be ashamed to negotiate before things get worse, me or a majority of ukrainians, and seem willing to negotiate with russia. a recent cube institute research, paul says that the over 70 percent agree end of the country should also be sick in a diplomatic way to end the war. well, that's compared to a 2022 survey when only 59 percent of respondents believed to keep in moscow need

peace talks. popular support for negotiations is not only growing within ukrainian society, but also across the us and europe. recent polls in europe suggests over 40 percent of respondents agree, the u. e. u should push to crane to negotiations with russia to end the conflict soon. and us pulse suggests nearly 70 percent of americans want the bite and administration to encourage camp to enter peace talks with moscow. these number suggests to western public support for ukraine is slowly but steadily decreasing as the conflict of drugs on and friendship presidents a manual mac ron has reportedly said there is no red line in the refrain. conflict, claiming there is no limit when it comes to back in key of not the 1st such statement from a cron who earlier discussed the possibility of sending western trips to ukraine and was later backed by the polish foreign minister who claimed to sending natal trips to crane is quote, not unthinkable, and that they are already operating in ukraine. a needle soldiers are already

present in ukraine, and i would like to warmly think the masters of those states that have taken that risk. those who are those states know who they are. well, you cannot disclose that contrary to other politicians, i will not list those countries. we discussed this earlier with this with professor bruno to investigate of the national institute of languages and eastern civilizations. this as western relates, are now more convinced the situation in ukraine is not working in their favor. the president, i didn't make quite, quite often a lot of error, but it said it's showing it's unconscious and i think does to what he's telling me is going to main. trent in western elite, who are no more and more convinced of the situation in ukraine is not working under side and they have to the side some come from ice and i think that's the main trend

now in the west. even if you have some other and they scores like my calling front. but basically i would say that the basic trend, especially i'm of military's, is to negotiate with russia. the balance of power on the grounds, the change in ukraine, the balance of power in the whole world has changed due to war and to meet at least and in other region of the world. and also in the ukraine and is much weaker than it was a 30th. that's one thing at all. so we got the american elections and in the united states, we see a growing trend of the population of the society against the war. and of course, by duty ones do when the election associate has to adjust also to the opinion of his fellow citizens stable and from like that to india is foreign policy

chief has summed up relations with russia and 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 all relationship with moscow today is based on this experience. in india is expanding cooperation with russia, despite western sanctions against moscow. u. s. and e. u officials have been calling for a cost down on indian in ports of russian commodities. my colleagues, jessica taylor, talk the suspects person for india's ruling party, the beach i p who broke down how moscow a new deal they are doing business in defiance of the west, the media ratio page. it is a student n oh you don't face all the lives and then videos. right? yeah, we did for

a i mean did for us. yeah. the halls stick to the siding from defense starting from investment and i wrote a start date from the investment in boy, starting back to a boy from brush. yet the important point in this is for a friend in the foreign policy. you may not rush she all the way, mary, in boston, please. e d. i a not be any pressure from listings or he does not see any certificates or the patients from the rest of the work regarding his 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 active off energy off. i will call them off the cream of defense, which has to be got really for long. but i do specifically want to ask you about a new daddy's position. ah visa, visa ukraine conflict report, president mac chrome 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 new to any says we want this conflict to be resolved. do you see resolution coming before escalation at this point in time? we didn't need drugs to the global peace. the resolution of the conflict is the g i, b o is. this is not the for any a nation. uh it was all communities basically country to be able to do the via rather this is the buyer who can include the buyer. so the country which is a, the steve porter, this car like a lot of the se in the wall. sure. the device or the matrix so that both sides are on the d. b and b's the key. the deal is it's a red line. that's how us president joe biden describe the idea of send tension to begin a new ground operation in the southern gaza city of rasa. despite his doubling down

on us military support for israel, there's no red line. i'm going to cut off our weapons so they don't have the iron. don't protect. they don't have puts these red lines that if you cross isn't because he cannot have 30000 more palestinians, he must, he must pay more attention to the ears. allies be lost as a consequence of the extra stake he's hurting my view, is hurting israel more than helping to israel by making the rest of the world as contrary to what is your stance to the american later added further confusion to the dialogue by stating benjamin netanyahu his policy brings more harm than benefit to the as rarely people. biden's remarks were made during an interview shared by emerson, vc on sunday. he discouraged israel from launching its ground operation until a safe sound would be crated. well, once again, confirming washington support for israel alison in analyst and the expert in his rarely us relations call june bar gucci,

said biden's actions are likely related to the upcoming presidential elections in the us. by then and his advice, the camilla head is distinguished between 2 things. anytime. yeah, and is that i have and is, or am and the is that, i mean people, this is what the camilla said and this is what the secretly of and by then statement to spoke about. nathan. yeah. and he's causing com to is that a so he's very much one 7th in it is doing is a in from nathan, you know, and his government policy. and the same thing said by camella harris, maybe this thing saying that she's for the fair stein. maybe she quit between the need of securities between the listing and people, and those are the only people that, that it could be. and you do everything in the capital, which i don't know it without, it will continue. it's or it's just good connected to the current situation with this $63.00, and i think of a month and is it a?

but it, this statement showed some confusion in is that i am and some, let's say, can say, and it could tell. and from where it's interactions, we hope it might take place, but still the binding is very much consumed in the security and it is skilling is an input on engine in that then you know, and maybe it's a beginning for him to, to secure his uh, but as you then see of the coming elections, well that's as the humanitarian crisis and gaza worsens. by the day, we manage to speak with a former study minister of health and general supervisor of the king solomon center for humanitarian aid. can detailed the issues, humanitarian workers face when bringing a to to gaza. a case of the leaves is, is actually live cut all of the some, both of us to have the stuff to the,

from the fittest days of additional on the we have discussed with both on the wall on the policy. and yet it crescent to analyze the fly, which is the appliances as you know, and on. and i know number one is a food security and nutrition for children, health supplies in order to solve as the people who have been in, get it. and also shut us up with a team from k s relief from an of a, a pot and others that we have visited to the boys i live in shut off on the half of my son, sat a very close to the door. and we have seen many knowing the trucks waiting good to have permission to go. and i have spoken to many a truck that i bought us uh on the sea and all of them are very tired then it goes to the. busy checks and long. busy it says they have to shut off and uh, 50 kilometer. busy uh,

to go for the checks by the is the id forces on the that fix hold for a long time and keep this process. and they have to come back. another can 50 cut on because in order for them to be allowed due to end up. so this applies out of many unfortunate the not all the replies have gone through on the $400.00. so i have passed through as we are waiting many thoughts out of still presents, in addition of a ha and the soldiers of the age of ship. it can i send, waiting for the approval for them to go through a quarter door to cause us one. why is this is happening again it's, it's very deep. it's the,

the restrictions on the size. they have to check every product and sometimes they don't allow a uh, flexible or sometimes they allow only a few thoughts. and. busy the biggest challenge is the tedious approve of from the is that either side and they have also to fix it as fixes on some of the a supplies. some of them are they coming machines is they don't allow them. uh, some of the also uh, shows the supplies that don't allow them and they, uh, categorize those supplies of as a potential risk for them. so we are doing a lot of work in order to uh, push out a supplies to go through to minimize the humanitarian crises in, in the gods. uh uh, i know, uh what are the benefits of those items when you put them in said x ray machine when you but event and i think your weights up for

a and you. busy when you put event supplies. busy immediate response to those who are injured, you are denying them a chance to live. i see we should weigh the benefits of those items against the small, what types of risk um my the to the natural community that the uh, humanitarian crisis thing goes is huge. and big um we should allow, as many supplies to go before the 100 a month. so from a bond stops, we support with the new budget. we can do that, but i'm not sure that the care at all. we need to fix it because on the sample plans has been allowed to do the have the wrong button. and as you mention,

some of the air drop was dropped in the seas from the inside some drugs in the appropriate place. i think that the only so the ocean to so we have a true in taishan for 6 people and to the list of finding the fiscal fit we should open or because the gods a box of this what we are doing as actually we are putting a small band, they want us and a bleeding big uh, big legion with a bunch of data which cannot stop the vision. um, we, i'm not told that we would reach our goal. i'm not a for them. and instead of books, i can tell you one thing. all the people on disability inside of the to mind them this number one stop. busy that shouldn't be see fire, open the quarter doors and allow unrestricted human material supply to go on.

and we should have one in our mind to save as many civilians as we can. as many women as we can, as many children as we can and anything else should be put on on the flight. us pressure on officials across africa has sparked afresh confrontation in zimbabwe . ferrari has expelled the controversial usaid agency from the country after washington's sanctions of the southern african nations top officials. and it's not the only diplomatic conflict. the white house is feeling on the continent. as ortiz, no, you can gave reports a sanction. so once again, the weapon of choice, enforcing myriads off you as far as policy goals and bob ways, the latest targets back in 2001, the u. s. mountain on sloughed on. how about it? so it's so cold lose. would it be jumping on the n c's and bob a bad week 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 museums have slowed progress inhibited economist 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 tensions. lots you 1st have thoughts and repeatedly tried to reverse that. you started programs through political tools or confrontation with using baldwin government. but those gifts was to prove it 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 slot the innocent nationals of other nations, while also maligning those same nations for daring to be independent and silver and, and for reversing

a baneful legacy of settler colonialism in line with the united nations charter. the sanctions of slowing down our progress inhibiting out you cannot make recovery and punishing the poorest and most vulnerable in our society. so unit 2 of the above was the 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 by the support of the census that 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 bob go back? 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 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 status aiming to punish kampala food n. c l g. b 6,

you know, they defy in prison. the severe needs slamming the move is justified defending the countries the 17th 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 target to do the rich. yeah. long stigmatized as a regional boiler by washington. a section for supporting tables as groups, despite years of screwed to me by monitoring groups, using 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 put magic missions and a number of states and causing the code to use of the inputs of expertise and made

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 illicit and immoral sanctions is to inculcate suffering and starvation on the population. so as to induce political unrest and instability is patently clear. of the past decades western states have made such which is still go to diplomatic weapons. the united states and you ropes in union administer hundreds of section programs targeting thousands of individuals, companies, and economy, except as in many countries, but have sanctions achieved vehicles. despite the efforts, the targeted states retained suffering and independent domestic and foreign policy

building ties with the global solves and russia. you essentially have also cause the economy collateral damage. sedans, economy being severely impacted even after 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 mister has failed to learn the lesson time and time again. all right, that's all for me for now, but do stay with us. my colleagues, peter scott, will be in next in about half an hour with

a look at your headlines by the hello and welcome to the cost of full board. here we discussed some real in the what is part of the is it that the employee would post that isn't the defense you of us and building the word or is it something deeper, more complex? might the present good? let's stop without keesha's desktop part of the the the in previous tours of duty, i often heard the phrase on tennessee is the god of war, soldiers repeated,

and is often seen on military chaperones. was stuck in my head. what did they mean

really? i was wondering what these soldiers are like, what will they do and how they handle that powerful weapons. shackle down, yeah. the motion with the guys to the fine position for a combat task going at around 40 kilometers an hour. and there's probably nothing to hold on to the, the, the
