soccer nurse could have been the next president. ok, keep losing people out here. the, the headlines on off these rational and r t correspondent is detained at to police . the apples with no reasons, given. even heading that to cover the ongoing protest and the george and capitol, the process and security council says a direct link has been found between ukraine and last months, concert whole power attack in moscow evolve. all those involved will be punished. an escalation of the complex is the result of need on the who's not seen madness, lead us the 3rd world war, the president nicholas my daughter, right, the warning of the precarious situation, the world suddenly finds itself in the south west of nations. oh, do you as well not to strike back at the wrong and find me in the program to now pop the yourself. why don't you,
3:01 pm
my jerry is urge not to let the british oil giant shell leave at stake in the country without making up all the pollution in the region. the entire be region for many bigs became one who knows what he's doing there about the nation, the end of the judges that have to post a local to the environment the well we have an awful lot of talk about this evening live from most go to just talking about what your thoughts attempt to i'm locally here in the russian capital . i should've been happy with taking office out with breaking news for you. as one of our correspondents, one of our top correspondents total quarter detained the to police, the airport. he was simply heading to georgia to cover the protests, the but a few more details. now with all these, it goes down a basically my colleague and i was calling don't quote a he traveled to georgia on the,
3:02 pm
at the board to check points at the book at the board to check when he presented his passport, his his id. and apparently he was told that if there was some technical glitch in the system that wouldn't recognize as possible these documents. and so he was just told to wait until it looked fine at that time. but then he was just quoted to an isolated room. and that was all pretty much we haven't had anything from him ever since. so probably his means of communications were taken away from him. it is a very troubling development because essentially it looks like he has been denied entry to georgia and he was traveling that to cover the latest protests in the george and capital against the lou on for an agents. again, this is not the 1st time that he's done so because it's the 2nd attempt to of the georgia government to pass this law and a he was the one for our team to national to cover the protest last year when the
3:03 pm
says when the government essentially made the 1st attempt to vote on that bill have a look. this is a piece over his report from the crowd, the number here the . so again, you can see he was reporting from the thick of it from the, from the crowd. now a little bit more about this new because this for an agent floor, it's very similar to the one that the russia has or the united states have a basically, according to the georgia in bill because it is still a bill. every n g o or media outlet is for and if a for and funding makes up 20 percent or more of the entities budget,
3:04 pm
they have to register and they would be subject to a few extra extra financial proceed the procedures and checks. so the opposition argues that if the bill is passed into a lo, it would move the country further away from the integration with the e. u, and this is what the opposition wants. but i won't actually also be argues that this bill again is passed into it would limit the freedom of speech and the, basically the freedom of the press. and in fact, the administration in washington has been making the very same point. even though the for an agent legislation exists in the us to remain deeply concerned that this draft legislation would harm civil society organizations working to improve the lives of george and citizens and would the rail georgia from its european path. we
3:05 pm
are also concerned that this draft legislation would impede independent media organizations working to provide access for georgia and citizens to high quality information. well, now probably at least one journalist won't be able to report on the floor and on because of the opposition who seemed to be striving, who seemed to be advocating for the freedom of the press. so much please phone john . this won't be able to report on that. but meanwhile, i demonstrate, as i gathered outside of georgia in parliament to continue a riley against the adoption of his foreign agents. bill the furniture from the state. and i was shouting, sporadic flashes between police and demonstrate his protests had been waving georgia on the e u flags and charging words of condemnation about the bill. a similarity on monday ended with full t. a risk being made. we discussed the recent developments for their tally and war . correspondent, i'm rarely, judy who fee is a john list to represent an alternative narrative to that of the way the media might suddenly find themselves in the process. now for jordan, i mean,
3:06 pm
i think not only russians normally store uh correspondence with uh, from fast part the bottom or the drawer and a list that they're working in on the side of the main stream perspective can be a targets for such actions in georgia of course so georgia, uh, want to maybe want to share these european barriers about the freedom of speech. and for these reasons, maybe they want to show someone to someone in the west, the local, we are bar codes or us from journalist that comes here or subsea and these, these little about for an age. and so that's a lot of pro you are people protesting against the, you know, and the, maybe this is a political message for someone. but it's up to say,
3:07 pm
now this is my point of view. and i think that's a, as i say, not only are i, some journalists are in danger. now, if someone want to cover such protests, the button or journalist don't recognize it themselves in the west or policy. maybe this is the point. the secretary of the russian security council, as, as a direct link, has been proven between ukraine and last month's concert, whole terror attack. and most of the left, the 145 people that for did i see of the window, you strike an example of humanity and see as hatred of our country as the service itself in cocoa city on march 22nd. during the investigation, the connection between the direct perpetrators of this terrorist attack and ukrainian nationalist was confirmed and procedurally established the perpetrators accomplices organizes of this most as blooded service that can be outta affiliated
3:08 pm
persons no matter where they hide. and no matter how they try to confuse the traces of their crime, will suffer the deserved punishment to put themselves equal. i bought the rush of added that these perpetrators will be found no matter where they were and that they will be held accountable. now just to remind you a little bit that form gunmen were arrested after the attack on their way to the ukrainian border. now, previously they were claims that they were radical assignments for that they had a handler waiting for them. on the other side of the board, the note is official. russian officials have soley proof that links this attack to ukrainian nationalist nichol i pod thrush of also emphasized that a number of terrorist attacks that were planned by ukraine work conducted and prevented by russia that includes thrown attacks or even deadly attacks against journalists. he also emphasized the fact that for a very long time, the west has been longing to seize russia's resources. but the,
3:09 pm
today they've decided to isolate russia as much as possible. now we also highlighted that measures have taken place to improve russia security. and that includes a training on the regular basis to counter terrorism as well as to intensify the introduction of modern equipment to help with that as well as. and he says that plans to rescue and protect people have been developed in all of rushes regions for my pen to go on senior security. and listen, michael muller, if he joined me earlier in the program, he doesn't feel very much reaction to russia's revelations from you. i would expect that they will be silent and possibly deny it. but i also would hope that we could get more clarity and transparency. and identification of what, what entities and in ukraine more engaged. but i think you got to go beyond just the entities in ukraine. you got to find out who the actual finance here is more
3:10 pm
and they are from the west. and i have a fairly reliable information that some, some, there is a group of multi millionaires who may have been involved in, in helping to finance the law school for the that war was over months ago. that the, what the resorting to now is, is, is a, is too little too late, and it's not gonna change or change the tide of anything. and not the less they're going to continue that monitor because they want, they want the payments to be taken to continue our, uh, our, our lobbies, our, our military industrial complex requires is, can we, we require conflict in order to do the engine in order to continue the high level of funding that they've become accustomed to limit the doc, no solve the progress of the city hold attack come, glimmers of light the way people rally together to help in any way they could.
3:11 pm
velocity is made of really insightful documentary about that tragic day. you can watch it all day long and throughout the evening here, ronald c for right now that were very quick. pre the this we had a round before to magic side behind us. he said i was, i thought, that's it. so my dad from it also, i saw people standing around me, i yelled off to me and began to run outside the every person. there was a here. oh no on. yes, you shut it off to me. i'll pray for you, for the sale be there we one band together are seeing. all of people don't like that. they that have been minimal victims on us, which is such as our people are very empathetic and take these troubles to hardy to
3:12 pm
see that purple skies. my soul aches, my heart aches. how could i not say farewell to those people who died the? yeah, this is all to international for you. is that on already simmering middle lease could soon boil over? so if the on the rise is off, the israel has warmed iran. it should be expecting a response. saturday is the time. yeah, i'm going to face the consequences for its actions. we wouldn't choose highway spawns accordingly. the idea remains ready to come to any for it, for me on, and it still proxies. as we continue our mission to defend the state to visa, just to remind you quickly, iran doors in the autumn monitor of miss alice and drove into the israel is 1st direct attack on the country. this was saturday night,
3:13 pm
a tire on said it was the tale action for deadly already 500 consulate in syria. now nearly all of the incoming targets was successfully taken out around those as it now considered the whole not have closed unless it is forced to think otherwise, we do not seek to expand the war. well, we will cut off every hand that attacks our country. any aggression from israel or its supporters will be met with a stronger response than before. groups of iranians, what satan celebrating on the streets, saturday night in the wake of the strike? but as israel miles, it's respondents, the venezuelan president has won the world suddenly finds itself very precariously balanced in okay, on a photo. what is left for us to do? to advocate the diplomacy and rationality prevail because it does not escalate. an escalation of the conflict as the result of and in the nazi madness lead us the 3rd world war. i mean, as well, advocates piece, rationality,
3:14 pm
diplomacy and to and while washington, which has perhaps done the most to found the flames of his conflict. so that stands by israel, that has wound tel aviv against escalation a but at a fundamental level, there is a bond between the united states and the people of israel. and that bond rest on are shared security. and one of the things that we will continue to be committed to is the defense of that security and the willing to risk original thoughts a war for this. i think you've heard me say here a number of times that we are working to pursue de escalation. and that has been the focus of our diplomacy since october 7th, not just over the weekend, but since day one is trying to pursue the escalation and prevent the conflict from widening and spreading and expanding. so while jo biden's election cycle administration in washington, desperately tries to tell us the conflict in the middle east is in spreading the
3:15 pm
facts on the ground. tell us something completely different. the reality, 16 different countries in the region are no embroiled in the burgeoning conflict. as around a ratchets up the pressure and deliver its, its 1st, the record colloquy strikes on he's ready. soil, you'll have to ask yourself why the us is so determined to tell you that this dangerous situation is contained? well, maybe that's because they would prefer to can field the vast u. s. military presence in the region. after all, the us deployed dozens of aircraft and launch air defense missiles from at least a countries with a run. and it's proxies fired weapons from a rack, syria and e m. and it all sounds well, looks like the regional conflict to me. but despite all this, despite what we can plainly see on the map,
3:16 pm
the us is refusing to acknowledge reality. in terms of the striking, damascus, all it is a real speak for themselves and you know, and when it comes to preventing a wider regional conflict, um, you know, so far there is not, uh, we certainly hope that doesn't happen. and again, the reality on the ground tells us something completely different. as you can see, the us as quite me, build a huge network of air defenses to fight a regional war. it's telling us that just isn't happening. and if that's true, why the american air cost based in q 8, jordan the you a car and so do your radio and they're working to defend as really ya sits on the ground alongside their own faces. the u. k. is also intimately involved in this apparently non existent, more actively engaging against iranian air force assets during the attack on the as
3:17 pm
well. but the spike, this washington is sticking to the story, even when pre of their soldiers were killed in a drone attack in the region. we don't want to see a whitening of this conflict. we don't see this conflict whitening as it still remains contained to gaza and the western media has of course don't. it's best to assist white house attempts to downplay the seriousness of the situation in the region like eagerly spinning divided ministrations all as well. narrative, even telling us that the rainy attack represented a victory for israel. i'm regardless of what the pentagon on their bosses in the white house tells us. it's clear that the us is up to its neck in the middle east problems, but admitting that during an election year is not something any sitting president wants to do. much like the collapsing ukrainian misadventure. it's far better to convince the taxpayers funding is that everything is going just fine. made the mouth and concerns about a wider conflict. the egyptian foreign minister held
3:18 pm
a phone call with his, his riley counts a pod. now each of which has a border with gaza, it has been playing a host of delegations from both israel and palestine in the hope of brokering a truce, cairo itself that was refused to allow an influx of refugees from gaza. so i think concerns about the displacement of palestinians and regional security issues. officials say they fia, israel wants to force a permanent expulsion of palestinians into each region natural nullify the palestinian demands for the key issue of statehood. but of course, live now to the executive director of the arab send that reverse search and studies how do you solve them and not joining us a live on a lot you international a very good evening to you. so just very, very quickly, according to the wall street journal, israel might strike iran tonight, as we've seen any witnessing the build up to a abroad, a war in the middle east. i wanted to ask you if i may, honey, wherever is egypt? amid all this, i mean obviously is sharing a border with the region,
3:19 pm
but it seems to be staying somewhat quietly on this side. like do you think cairo should be more active at this crisis? a good evening gabby, to be with you again. yes. uh, is this uh, discussions on different positions uh with the uh, foreign minister, somebody shortly it was, it gets i think it's very important. the existence of the end of this transition, the video, which is that isn't chris as many chances. porter is condition between is right, we are talking about the both. those were only, but it's a many and factors. um, bennett choices to be a more why is the conflict between other factors, incentives, and so i think easiest to do its best to, from the beginning of the crisis. easy to adopt forwarding, but it's been didn't go on of being and supporting the efforts to make a change, support abuse, or maybe making all kinds of immunizations to find
3:20 pm
a good solution. is it that i love to be a part of the crisis and it's a beard. many uh, many uh, based out of from many sides is it has many acquisitions. i'm going to have the style facing the is there some voice events on the was the most to make a change this to me, a war against these are you um is it from the, the one the fuse losing the people does the uh the uh, the fuse is uh, is right in 302. uh do me need the order to come through. uh, philadelphia, texas. i think is it for the uh, for the many chances for the room at the time i believe because solutions is up to tell you is this more moment to find out to get uh through us at least,
3:21 pm
or to make a kind of seizing the fire uh, is it the one to see? was there anything going? so the factors is the 1st is to adopt a policy or a, but it's up to a for a continuous, some words for fluids and for who may 30 and it's seconds is too broad. the state security board of those and the national security for easy said a m to made of bruce's of these why is the, is most on the about of us or, or 7 over the phone for that is about the a solution of those days. so how do you, i mean, how do i, you know, you raised some really good points? yeah, sorry to jump in, i apologize for interrupting you, but you raised some very, very, very good points there. indeed, i mean, look, i mean, let's be frank about this. i mean, cairo, cairo was the one that actually one kind of re, they've not days maybe even weeks before october, the 7th that have mass with stage. what about to prepare and stage and unprecedented terror attacks the cairo did won't tell of it,
3:22 pm
did it's part on that front. but as you say in a some other people are saying, egypt is not doing enough. i think somebody also say the arab league in general isn't doing enough to help the palestinians who are really under the handle of aaron garza, particularly in the southern part of garza very close to the fire, of course, which is the egyptian border. we know that cairo is boosting a security presence at the border of it. honey, let me ask you if waves of displaced people start coming in, they stop pouring in. do you think cairo would be able to effectively manage the situation? if indeed push comes to shove, let's talk about the i understand this, the talks about was the easiest to didn't to give the exhibit conditions to the stain on the inside to do it from because the water may be upgraded to uh, menu steps like get on a, somebody we'll talk about this, but i say is it didn't exist as depth. so uh uh, was there was
3:23 pm
a bus or is it for example, or to me a confident who is, is there a because it want to be, it was the thing involved with is that piece versus not the most do i used to let it say? and is this of america today? is it rooms a, a, this versus the drawing, or is this addition? but is it that i to be involved with, into the resources? so that is why is if that, that i used to be car though and, and that domain distributed towards the same for rooms that the is the elite, it'd be have your and to be a mini pressure from it's. and so we talk about this is the best scenario. if you make a then the rest of the vs in a are you saying, is it right from a long time to be ready for many scenarios? and the, one of the, of this is the really immunizations. what is the theme and the
3:24 pm
resulting, and where's resulting in an influx, sorry to jump in again, made, but resulting an influx of palestinians who had tried to flee. i mean, look, the chips in florida are off. ok, southern god. so we've got roughly a 1000000 palestinians who was still living in a tent city, living among the rubble there. and it does seem that it could happen at any moment with the egypt just suddenly going to find it. so having to handle potentially hundreds of thousands of people. i look honey, i agree with you. you're right. egypt has been a vote for and supporting the power steering and cause, but at the end of the day, honey, can cairo translate your rhetoric into a meaningful actions on the ground or is that too much to ask? it is, i think is really complicated. scenario is it the type to avoid that from the beginning and the distortion of egypt or every time somebody still feels better as the present susie, and so that we refused. any elanda relation in this scenario may be some in real or effect. so is it to try to make a d and for some, and there was
3:25 pm
a lot of those who made good buy in the, of the military equipment to the right to brother does the boat it does if the dog doesn't want to uh, is uh, but a stand yeah. or events that people to leave it's lance because it wants to be a head before this is uh but it's saying uh, conflict was, is there i think it's a good chance if you get to a may be upset. is this scenario so easy to try to be ready for or is this a challenges but it wouldn't be very a bad and easy. it can't find any other solutions the tool goes through. it wouldn't be or needs or i guess there's right on the, i think the zip the is in 24. is that because there is no one of the dealers that have to use the present guess. right. so it's just a dozen to wants to to find that. it's in front on his. yeah. right. and so, yeah, i was the thing to be dependent on the needs because until domestic wait. but if it
3:26 pm
was a military edition, and i think it may be easier to be involved with by a way or another, it might, it may have that choice on a, it may just have no choice right now. i mean, the age of, at the end of the day is kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place, as you say is trying to appease guys on this side. america or on this side is right on this side. the palestinians on the other side, but it's egypt on jordan, how need that are not very pro, opening the gates and allowing all these palestinians to pull through with a very complicated situation as you say in highly solely mine is the executive director of the arabs center for research and studies joining us live from cairo. great to have you on the program. thank you. thank so much. thank well the oil dried show should be forced to clean up its mess before being allowed to leave nigeria. that's the message from miss the international. among others, the sending it to be all to ortiz and the west african extra shell should not be
3:27 pm
permitted to use legal gymnastics. to escape is the responsibilities for clean up. it's widespread, the legacy of pollution. the companies diverse madrid code is replete with examples of phone show room lighting licenses being sold without adequate safeguards to protect nigerians from home and the nice even government from financial liability. the shelves accused of causing widespread pollution, all sorts of water contamination, agricultural poisoning and is what is the role damaged with the basic livelihoods of people working? the of the director of amnesty international is nigerian bronze says the environmental devastation has to be remedied by those who caused it. is that instances where the communities that took some of my testing costs and you want to know there are issues that as the cold between the boys and giant and the communities. and what are we talking about is a legacy or a big kids. you know,
3:28 pm
as part of the sixty's to know to know that a legacy of devastation, you know, destruction of livelihood as speeds of task. peoplesoft oil in the, you know, leave the, in the ocean. and many of that, it's actually attracted to the life cycle of those. we believe the company has responsibility and it has to be operating in the region for many digits . i've been in the one knows what is going on there about uh, the oil formation, and uh, the judges that out of course, local to the inbox. so the company has to, what do we have for them to actually use a commitment to address in the environment and injustice that shouldn't be prioritize ation or business or by the lives of human beats. when businesses are businesses, they are priority is low and we want to that,
3:29 pm
and that is what has to be happening without that oil companies. we can't see anything in anticipation because we don't know the legacy of the new company coming in. but definitely the database is, which is the reason why we are doing what are we are doing now that we are seeing what we actually have done. and that gives you is that people taking advantage of this. but none of the people of different states in their own environment. why and means you money that a nation for out of their, out of their business. so what do we see is that what time is the interaction of these organizations? i see that this complex, the, what is, what is the positive deep uh, we have to wait. we have to make sure that they can be able to address this problem . how do we know you will know about their capacity to handle this things? that is why we say that is an issue and has to be addressed. so what we're doing
3:30 pm
that is going to keep them, they get the power of them or not. the issue i've had um is the usual the damage done by the shit? oh wow. yes, and it has to be addressed. i mean it has to be the priority full, but yeah, there's an article on the website, friends of the uh, that describes 10 ways that shell is destroying the find that i guess nigeria is just the tip of the dirty ice book. this is all the international way back the top of the the the fire body program. now, once again, we now posts or show every single day used to do it weekly. now we're doing a daily, we hold no punches here. i liked the other guys. so look.
