11:00 am
the, the, the, we're going to use this, our russian intelligence, we're bills that wrong is preparing 2000 troops to be sent to you pray, to restore this thing. the french military will be considered a legitimate progress. but with gifts defense to provoke interest indirectly conflicts violates the rights and freedoms of citizens. users of phobia and any other ideology of intelligence must be familiar and immediately suppressed russian president who to enroll into the 10s through de stabilized russia by tier than the west of deals to fail. ukrainian forces loans from the delta about reaches us send us a new plane to ramp up. it's mobilization of the 12 military officials like robin citizens off the street by full. i'm sending them to the front on the coupon and
11:01 am
farm industries. someone's the us ambassador. after accusing washington, a fueling nancy government protest and meddling in the island nation. the a very well welcome to us to 1060, i'm here in most go in. this is all the international, but the latest world news update is good to have you with us. we thoughts with breaking news. this. our frowns is preparing to send a military contingent to fights in ukraine. according to russian intelligence, powers will send that to thousands of military personnel to the conflicts, the according to data received by the foreign intelligent service of russia. the contingent to be sent to ukraine is already being prepared. at the initial stage. it will be about 2000 people. the french military fee is that such
11:02 am
a significant military unit will not be able to be deployed and quoted in ukraine unnoticed. it will become a priority, legitimate targets for attacks by the russian armed forces. french president, mclaren earlier pushed a full french soldiers to be deployed to, to ukraine, having a nato ground operation. and ukraine could see on the cons just by the handful of western leaders back in the cross position. a common consensus is far from being waged. maybe at some point, it will be necessary to carry out operations locally in order to counter russian forces. frances might is in our ability to do so. we are ready to prepare for any scenario. it would be a mistake not to do so. let's discuss this further as close live now to michael many form a pencil. go on a cd, a security policy analyst, mr. malays lovely to save today. thank you so much for joining us. so where are your development to say the least? what are your thoughts on from says plans to send the military contingent to
11:03 am
ukraine. is it surprising to you? shocking, almost as well. there are many considerations here. no, it's not shocking for a variety of reasons. i called is not popular at all, just got to do something to take the people's minds off of this internal problem problems. secondly, it's, he's, he's seems to be making a veil pitch to create more of a european defense mechanism as opposed to nato. a mechanism such, such a, such a european defense system. comfortable in nato, but the only on the european scale without the us would probably put him in charge . and this is what i think he envisions. so, but to deploy and to make announcements like this is yet another element of it is that he has made these comments. he has threatened to do so. he has no time limits
11:04 am
as to when he intends to do this. but i've, i've heard one report that he, that it russian work to, uh, take uh, odessa, uh, he would then move the french troops in. so they would become legitimate towards they would not, it would not be cost. you would be acting more on a single basis without natal approval of formal label, nato approval, then it it, um then that opens france up to direct attack if not its soldiers on the ground. so it's um and this could easily expand into hyper assignments coming in on france of that is that for conceivable. and so, so it's a, it's, it's a no, these, these opening up a can of worms that hasn't been open yet. it should be left closed. now,
11:05 am
but this has been revealed by the russian intelligence, what we're supposed to see if we can expect from powers. i'm, the rest of the world is particularly citizens in front. but i think the citizens of france are going to be somewhat upset. uh, they see their own conditions at home deteriorating and in favor of site save, trying to save another of what they believe to say what, what they call comp claims to be saving another, another country, and maybe even your se claims because he feels that if you don't stop russia and ukraine is, he's going to sweep your there's no evidence of that. so it's, it seems to me that they're going to be this, this could actually impact is a chances for re election. is chances of staying in office in the, the credits administrative defense as a institutional bade history of doing whatever the president wants. but there
11:06 am
is possibilities that internally, even inside the administrative pets, there could be an adverse reaction to wanted to confront russians directly. and, and if he has not made the case really of a threat to france or to europe for that matter. so they're, they're gonna have to question this very seriously. and i think that it could bring in rumblings from other members of nato and already were hearing from you know, members that they will not a treat. this would not approve this. so it looks like he wants to go it alone. and i think he's really trying to make it more of a base for a european defense alliance as opposed to nato. and he's been talking this way for years now. i think this is this opportunity to advance that. and then, you know, if we were, we whines about a year ago, the rhetoric coming from the clone, it was a lot no rational ends. a reasonable is,
11:07 am
seems just recently has become ever so much more whole kish. so one thing has been could have provided provides the best decision under the timing of the move. i think it's, uh, well, you're approaching the present us presidential elections uh, ukraine's in dire financial straits and also logistical straits. and also his country's internal affairs, particularly its economy has eroded even more since a year ago. and he has done nothing about it and he's becoming increasingly popular, well within france. so it's uh, it's all coming to a head to get it right. and so he's got to look for an hour, you know, it's the tail wagging the dog routine. and this is what we're up and no other. you don't hear any other type 3 of being this forward with that in advance. and the notion of introducing trips as,
11:08 am
as mccaul is even the holes have backed off from their threats. and certainly other members of the alliance national alliance will, will not pay with this. and that this could actually represent the 1st crack in the, in the cohesion of nato itself. if he carries is on and i think got stolen bird. the secretary general of nato has even surmised as much. so this is, my call is try it in all ways to become the, the, the spokes person, this, the strong arm guy of europe in competition with the germans. and he's failing, you and, and, and the way the price people recognizes and retire and rep. let's talk about what kind of impacts those 2000 troops being sent to you. trade might have, i mean, according to the russian intelligence,
11:09 am
the french government has already been shaken by the number of french fights, has killed them, the bathroom, filled a new crane house with more french. dest affects public opinion in the country, in, in the germ, in the, in russia, the, and perhaps it's going to have a much greater impact, because other seeing their own mercenaries right now, they're mercenaries going in there. and, but if he commits the armed forces, that will bring on ice, the greater turmoil and an opposition because that's the, that's the husbands wives of. i'm staying the troops. they will be easy targets. uh, where will they be based? and those bases themselves can easily be targeted and in the end there logistical training, how will that function, how will they be able to use the equipment? yeah, none of this has been revealed. and, and i to say to talk this line and sound strong as once i actually carried it out,
11:10 am
will be quite another. and we have seen from bitter experience what it means to bring in heavy equipment that requires a lot of supply and logistical training. and it just, it just isn't working in that area of the world. if from does heaven forbid, go ahead and send 2000 troops in to you for a. what is the likelihood, michael, that falls as nato allies will follow stage? as i said earlier, i don't think that that's gonna happen. it's um, if, if the word does it spread beyond just those 2000 troops and stays within ukraine and doesn't, it doesn't slop over into, to europe itself and the price of particular, i think the other ukraine and i think the other europeans are going to be a very have a real arms length approach to this thing because they,
11:11 am
they don't want any part of it. that would be francis decision. it almost sounds like he's entered into some kind of a secret bilateral bilateral arrangement with the ukrainians. and if so, we need to know what that is and can, and then that raises the question, have other nato members done the same thing as colon done? the same thing on an individual basis, knowing that they could never get a unified nato response to stand up to russian. so i think that up, as i said earlier, this could be the beginning of the of serious seizure within nato itself. if this is allowed to go forward much too much further and i, i think the europeans would not be we're not supported in, as it is, they have their own very serious economic issues now that they've got a contin with and, and they, they have to, they have to their own standards of living. they have, uh, each period,
11:12 am
it's gonna take them a generation. they've got to find alternative fuel sources. they, they're all ex, 40 countries, and their factories are down. yet. if you're going to go on a wartime production, that means you've got to ship your, your, your, your economies from piece time to wartime production. i don't think the europeans have the stomach for it, and they certainly don't have the resources for it. and it will take out quite a long time to do that on the one hand. but russia is far ahead in terms of its own production and would be able to do cuz sizable damage in the cross in the meantime until and so they, they were able to get up and get a get going. if it came to that point, i doubt that it will. i doubt that it will. well that's, that's hope. no, it's not companies. many thanks for speaking to us today. oh, it's a pleasure to get your take on things. i've been talking to my company for the
11:13 am
pentagon senior security policy analysts. thank you. thank you, nicky. bye bye. it's had to stay for vote unless the in wash it will be fully suppressed. i'm punished. that's the message president putin related the address, the russian security service on tuesday to say what he meant to do. you want to use boys also at one time the west actively used various customer and they're ready to go. that artists and groups in its interests, including encouraging their aggression against us. it is logical that the you will not take you ever to jean again with the support of the west, often and other direct instruction has resorted to terrorist methods. these are the shilling of residential areas. i would like to remind you about the recent, let's say provocative statements made by some official wisdom structures about the possibility of terrorist attacks in russia. all of this is reminiscent of blatant blackmail. do you have sent me an intention to submit a destabilize our society search the russian security service together with other special services and law enforcement agencies?
11:14 am
under the coordination of the national anti federalism center to seriously intensify anti terrorism efforts in all areas, attempts to provoke interest entered ethnic conflicts and violates the rights and freedoms of citizens use. the rest of phobia. and any other ideology of intolerance must be firmly and immediately suppressed. much here depends on our counter intelligence agencies. this applies to the sphere of counter terrorism. different from betting extremism, as well as other important areas. it is about neutralizing the intelligence activities of foreign special services the enemy is rapidly developing and of course as always is working against us in this direction. his name was more to step up here me to him. the president gave his speech the same day that ukrainian armed forces a todd to the belgrade region, reading chaos and destruction upon civilians. or you can see his cctv footage. they captured one of his strikes the,
11:15 am
the 4 people in judge tuesday morning and the tuesday morning selling and an estimate of 10 homes and 5 apartment buildings with damaged windows with low now. so the local school and kindergarten, which will also have targeted all told 16 civilians have been killed and almost a 100 wounded in a week called strikes. according to a local hospital to teenagers with interest. so by fee that limits will need to be on to the patient. i'll say produce that montgomery, which i f as in belgrade and felt this report the other day he and goes work region . and then all the text, a text from the region have intensified grades greatly in the last days you can see book called bitten by the direct heat of ukrainian, aram, 70 multi, a fluid fluid system. actually, russian ministers, the russian minister of defense, says that a target to 88 aerial target to intercepted but unfortunately, not all of them. for the last week, every single day 2 or 3 times
11:16 am
a day. the region is the act. i mean, you can, you can literally look at the inputs place. that's the place where you create an organ, has landed, and right behind me, this huge building is a school. one of the 3 schools. he in the village of the resume that they were unfortunately wounded there. they were casualties in the morning. and ducky happened at 10 if i'm not mistaken. 10 am including one child. he's his wrist, his wrist has been ripped, ripped up onto you. text on the regional intensified right before the rushes presidential elections. the initial plan was to let's 1st fill 6. thank you. will it is on the board. it with you queen. the entire plan was august 25th and conducting 5 queen and the military, you know, to intelligence. and the approx is so called russian roland t o,
11:17 am
cause they had to raise a flag and above the town, the regional sent a route or regional district center. the town of graver and they had to raise a flag just for the elections to show everyone the one that rushed presidential elections on not what it looks like, but well, they failed and now they are just actually they are just flaming the region these day, these these, this morning local governor is announced that 9 solving children will be moved and we from that region to the, to safety. when will it and is the main question that people are asking. but the 2nd question, all of them are confused when the punishment will come. the u. s. republican senator lindsey graham is strong, the drink that ukrainian politician part politicians pause a new mobilize ation bill as quickly as possible that would lower the age. ukrainian men can be called into the army to 25 years or even younger. and i would hope that those eligible to serve in the ukrainian military would join. i can't
11:18 am
believe it's a 27. you were in a fight for your life, so you should be serving not at 25 or 27. we need more people in the line. we're looking at here is just so yet another of us piece of evidence as to who is actually pulling the strings and key of what so may appear as a shocking to many is a completely normal. and ukraine is even appraised by their western puckett tiers. if you will, american senator lindsey graham is calling on ukrainians to go into battle, making vague promises that the united states was some point, provide the country with loans. now the washington post stephen gives us his direct quote. no matter what we do, you should be fighting. he said, no matter what we do, you are fighting for you. now, that same article says that the republic incentives are hold. so ukraine will soon get attacking the ballistic missiles so that they can quote,
11:19 am
knock them bridge down and they can cry me, it's a rush out. so it's hard to say whether lindsey graham is performing the political b, r, sconce, or speaking on behalf of the american government. just recently. he joins the so called n t, a director, a bites hurting against a $60000000000.00 us dollar a package for ukraine. and now he's calling on key of authorities to pass legislation to send more ukrainian citizens into the meat grinder. by the way, that's the same washington post also recently wrote an article titled invest ukrainian village. almost no men are left, but lindsey graham brushes those sentiments off with ease by consistently nudging regularly, craniums to fight against evil until the end. think of this and as long as the way up you crane with the weapons they need and the economic support, they will fight to the last person. what about the ukrainians themselves? has anyone ask them what they want?
11:20 am
well, a picture is worth a 1000 words in this case. it's a video footage of ukrainians showing the world how their military recruits people into the army this man and just on their wanted. none of its end when he was given a summons on the street. he basically just flapped around the man in uniform and walked away. however, not everyone is powerful enough to stand up to the so called force mobilization draft officers across ukraine have been literally pulling people off the streets and public transportation as well. in article, for example, a man was grabbed from a boss and taken into custody. his whereabouts unknown similar scenes from the gulf as well. a man is a running away from men in military uniforms and then forced by them to get into and many of them in the town of mocha chava and ukraine. a guy was just walking down the street and he was a wolf for the lack of a better word,
11:21 am
just kidnapped and forced into the army. now this kind of footage from ukraine has been emergent on a regular basis. recently, obvious, lack of desire to serve for the key of regime. the officials are relentless in their attempts to keep their people in line and take a lesson or even the, the other day for the country. for people functional dictatorship is always a disadvantage anymore. but for victory in war against them, this is may be a means which can help to defeat the enemy. since the start of the special minister reparation the ukraine has lost hundreds of thousands of soldiers now that or wounds it. however, the former chief of the polish armies, the general staff claims that the number is actually much higher. take less and despite huge help from the west, there was a recognized problem of too little equipment. more than 10000000 people are missing . i think the losses should be in the millions are not the hundreds of thousands in this country. there are no resources. there is no one to fight. the senator lindsey
11:22 am
graham has already made this several visits to key of each time he calls for more aggression against the russian army and violence against the russian people. but the question i guess remains is his rhetoric falling on deaf ears in washington or his war mongering actually stirring up support? well, you'd be the judge and the so to the where the foreign ministry has some of the us um positive, also accusing washington of metal and get its internal affairs and fueling the anti government protests which are wrapped in several of the islands nation cities on sunday. attention was also drawn to the us government's direct responsibility for the difficult economic situation. cuba is going through at this time and specifically for the shortages and difficulties faced by the population on a daily basis. with the suppression and in sufficiency of supplies and the central
11:23 am
services under the weight and impact of the economic blocker, they decided to destroy the economic capacity of the country. as i say, correspondence to your relatives about joys. been a studio now to discuss this by the many thanks for coming in very well as so it's like days on through, isn't it to another latin american country accusing the us of meddling and his domestic affairs. what more can you tell us about this? so as we just heard nikki cubans is undergoing mass of protest, hundreds of people have taken to the streets in santiago, the cuba. it's one of cuba is major cities and people have been protesting food shortages. the supply shortages and of course are also undergoing a worsening food crisis. there are reported cuts of power for 18 plus hours, which makes it impossible to preserve food in cuba is really hot climate. now. protestors had chanted that without electricity or food, the people get hot, which is understandable. the cuban government itself has some in the us and basset, or however, blaming the us,
11:24 am
saying that they are the ones that are stoking this protests of tablets. and the infamous truth wanted to go out yesterday to dance. show me the pain of the cubans. mediocre politicians and networks, terrorist lined up from south florida to heat up the streets of cuba with intervention is to messages and calls for cows. they were left wanting. now this is just as the u. s embassy actually tweeted on acts that they urge the cuban government to listen to the people's concerns and to give them their human rights accordingly. this is very similar to what the us a said before regarding cuba, and they want to quote, unquote protect the legitimate rights of the cuban people. so it's no surprise nikki, that the cuban government reacted this way. and so what has the us reaction been to these accusations while the us out it comes as no surprise, has said that they have absolutely nothing to do with cuba is process. let's have
11:25 am
a listen to that. or the united states is not behind these protests in cuba and the acts, the accusation of that is absurd. i will note those and do asked we are closely following these reports protests across several cities in cuba yesterday called for electricity, food, and fundamental freedoms. i think what we are seeing is reflection of the dire situation on the island as well. and this isn't the 1st time that there have been protests in cuba in 2021. the cuban government also accused the united states of meddling and actually went as far to say as they the united states was funding these protests. and now, here we are again, but as a cuban foreign minister did say, if the united states is so concerned about the well being of the cuban people, why aren't they removing the state sponsor of terror acts that they
11:26 am
have of cuba, where it makes it impossible to give aid to the country, why are they removing the fuel supplies that makes it impossible for them to get the need an oil. it is extremely expensive to get oil in cuba to get gasoline. you'll see lines of gas. that's also a huge issue. they also are persecuting anybody that wants to do business with cuba . and of course, the obvious thing, the us uh 60 plus year blockade and saying since of cuba that has done this. now when we look back, it's hard to say that this is going to voluntarily happen because the majority of people want to end the blockade, the majority of countries around the world. but when we looked at venezuela, for example, a country that is also underground massive sanctions, we're talking about scaling that as well as bull. we're talking about food shortages as well. the attempts to destabilize that, as well as to over throw both is chavez and major. or james were also evidence as well. you could even point to central america and on doris. and what happened there
11:27 am
that led to a to that led to gain violence and civil war essentially in the country. and even now in nicaragua, where the government is accused of not having fair and democratic elections. where have we heard this before? so the ultimate question is, why does the us get to decide which country is democratic and why are they using these sanctions? an active siege war to continuously be stabilize the economy of these countries turn the populations against the government? and then of course, worse be able to interfere in metal, in their way of giving into this sort of humanitarian aid and democracy. so more or less to be seen. i think this will continue on. and unfortunately for the people of cuba, this is something that is causing their migration and the entire migration crisis and latin america as well. and it is always the people, the software isn't the favorite. i many thanks for coming in with the details on but thanks for keeping an eye on it for us as well. so you are the isabel. thank you. 1000 states of the streets of buenos aires, protesting
