on israel last weekend. unnecessary and show or force coming out. stay as nomic republic, braces for a large scale idea for us phones we report from to run. we're locals are rallying and supports of their coverage. the triple site is as well as it was supposed to pull the trigger by targeting their warranty and military figures. so the current situation based on a nice edge, the from must go to the world. this is our t international. hello and welcome to then use our people in the world's most populous nation. are taking to the polls in this general election is being held in 7 stages over the next 6 weeks, with stations now close following the 1st day on voting on, archie will ensure you don't miss any of the moment stuff mater as we bring you

special coverage of the major event the will close to $1000000000.00 eligible voters can how there are say that is over 10 percent of the pilots. the election wraps up on june 1st with the results to be annoyed. 3 days after that. now, on friday voting took place across 21 indian states, and the big numbers keep coming. the large scale election requires more than a 1000000 pulling boots on an excess of that 15000000 workers to oversee it all. let's have a look over here because the ball it is taking place and many at remote areas. so some pulling machines must be carried there in horses and even elephants talk about pulling out all the stops at voters by the way,

have indelible ink apply to their index fingers. a method used to avoid fraud while the world's most elevated pulling booth is also being used, located as far off as 4650 meters in the himalayan mountains, while around 18000000 people are voting for the 1st time. here's what some of them told us about their expectations. as a 1st name or thursday, you read, obviously i voted for the one who is a guide in the me that if i more things with them, whatever they're seeing before getting elected to david obviously promised to abide by that and davis pursued or those demands my suspicions on the main body would read that to me can be off more to on demand is actually executive basically. secondly, i do my job opportunity should be created for the new york who they can and don't see pro force. and because there's a lot of intelligence that are pretty much scammed. so that's why it, i guess, you know, be,

i think they're doing wonderful job. what are you or do you want them to focus more on the health care sector? otherwise, typing everything. they are actually doing fine, i believe, to reduce your bill to the lady as good as it must be. and so, but uh, overall well, 2 main coalitions are competing for control of the country's parliament and post of prime minister. the national democratic alliance, comprising of 38 parties, led by the ruling bgp unencumbered premier, no rend moody. on the other side is the indian national developmental inclusive alliance, consisting of 26 opposition parties that block is led by the i n. c, with the parties spearheaded by another famous indian named ro, down the saw the former pm rajiv down the well,

the opposition accuses the incumbent government, all violating democratic principles, including media and really just freedom. that is a charge. new daily categorically denies what ortiz written to ensure on that has been covering the 1st day for us of the nation's elect, as big as democratic gets the size in the wall. it is on the way he already india, as a 1000000000 people were world. oh, well, the next 6 weeks, the 1st phase of the election started today. around $102.00 constituencies will bolting, alter the full $543.00 total fall, and one feed constituencies that the number again will be played on now costs. it's not just the world's biggest elections, but it's also one of the most expensive elections in the was some estimates say

that around $14000000000.00 will be spent 5 political sol keys to water is really most of an india of thought. i'm the know who they want to want to. i don't think of what is going to be moved by what is happening in the that's the world in terms of geo politics or conflict, a lot of this or that. some people, what exposure though, best, who have interest in the business or otherwise, and therefore they are sensitive to these trends. bodies have very, very, very small minority in the heartland of india, where the voting is, they're not even aware all these things are you using the bought and about the u. k . in conflict or what is happening between a 100 and the is that i or in the south china see this and that know they will vote on hardcore bread and butter issues. uh, development issues. but let me tell you something as well. so the 17 know,

so they can nice political bodies in india, how many of the engine light is it just to the, was forwarded as democracy? we sort of wants with these democracy to that as in the well see, the don't have a choice is either republicans or democrats, that's it. and even amongst that, if you read what is the state will be in dental view, us no more because it, it all depends on 7 states. for the rest of those days is given the read democrat, they'll be republicans not compared to that. look at the look at of a democracy. so the extremely sensitive about any individuals in the election process by to the press to even official statements. like in the case of germany and the united states, picking up the cause of opposition. politicians that in defending and not elections . so i don't, i find it very disappointing that the washington voted new york times of the economy is to financial times the whole targeting in indian democracy instead of

looking at the positives already. the fact that if indian democracy successful, then democracy in the world is successful. when we talk on monday for that at the what we're saying is that the ships in power back on. because since 1945 shouldn't be reflected in good global governance in the united nations, it's financial and political institutions that they shouldn't be most base. what a country like india. we had an older civilization, $16.00 of them entity a timing democracy. like, why can't we have create a see in how the luxury govern itself. and the principal going to be sure to be govern because we see a lot of double standards, lot of double standards, and thought of frustrating of all kinds. where closely watching the votes in india, where hundreds of millions of citizens will have their democratic say over the next month and a half r t dot com. how's the full schedule for you all the election as well as plenty of

details of analysis of the ongoing violence and here all there throughout the day. i'm in the coming weeks, we'll continue to bring you special coverage on india is parliamentary elections, which are run until the 1st day of june. the foreign minister, a circle of rough uh, shared his view on this found off between most school on the west in an interview to a select few prominent russian journalists. ortiz, editor in chief, mark, leader simonian, was among a gosh, a busy solution adds up the, the every day we have from the west is that they will not come down until russia is strategically defeated. and every day, more and more guys threatening to become, as it was mundane, more and more terrible to every one tells us johnson and the others. that if we don't win on the battlefield on waste, any call, this will put an end to the hedge and many of the west,

which means and never use the west. some general as it is under most suitable smells like a big pool. i do not know what nuclear weapons and people who smell like god forbid i find out. what do you think about it? is there such a prospect of where you would go to those? are you just doing good? this reflects not so much of religion to attitude as agony and history, and they're not hiding it anymore. they quoted johnson cassette that you for what russia wins will be the end of our head generally used as well. but this is just send that to you in, in the international court of justice goodness, guilty of violating the main principal of the un charter on the sovereign equality of state. and i think the international court of justice should pay attention to it . was there a lot of statements in the same thing? we lose our influence in russia. we'll work with china, north korea, and syria, to make this world. this does not reflect or something else with quite the contrary . reflects to our understanding of what is going on. the quote of battle to preserve for jammy no longer shining away from you, but this is simply the formation of a new multiple order and the cool justin democratic world for the 1st thing is that

the journalist asked him of that, of course, was ukraine. and one of the central points they wanted to know more about was that why did piece talks breakdown in ukraine very soon after the start of the military operation of a 2 to 3 weeks afterwards at peace, thoughts around the table, there was folks in bell rush there was talked in istanbul now, and the, the talks were progressing. and he was asked if it was russia's priorities were on the talks. and he mentioned that, you know, discriminatory laws against motions in eastern your brain and don't boss on that. fine me, it would be removed and he also is categorical in suggesting that it was the you k, do united states to a range, you plane. and if you like, 1st of all, as the present cost of to reminds us, we always prefer negotiations to fights and wars. and yes, we had experience, we mediately agreed when ukrainians realizing that they were playing with the bombing of don boss, and with the promotion of direct methods of genocide against the russians on their own territory. and they offered negotiations $2.00 to $3.00 weeks after the start

of the special military operations to which we agree. it's just the day before yesterday for the 1st published such memoirs, but they are very, very clearly aimed at just to find themselves. i'll explain why. now for the 1st world that the united states and britain details the landscape, not to sign but allegedly not because they wanted to continue to work with the hands of the ukrainians and exhaustive national federation and distribution civilians. but because they saw the proposal contained the formation of the group of guarantors of ukraine security with the participation of russia and china. but also with the participation of the west. it became wary. and there is an amazing reason why the beginning where yes, well, they will sign it now, but suddenly disagreements will not be fulfilled again. and someone will attack you crank suddenly and frustrated. self will attack your crank, and then we'll have to fight with russia as the guarantors of ukraine security. we don't want that. it doesn't make you think that doesn't. it is how many times in the suffering they could have been saved. if those pay stubs how that works out for them anyway to a positive note. now because the problem is i spoke about the pond as the bushes pop, those people of countries that they do have

a good relationship with me. one of those key partners, of course, is china. china has the back to back. but russia since for the young, it's refused to implement sanctions. it's refused to play the game that the west has demanded to do so. and interesting, the associate level of also mentions china is a suggestion around a piece plan for ukraine just around the the chinese position, which we respect back in february, last year they formulated their 12 points and now schultz went to caesar in pain and not very decent police deposition pin supports the peace conference in switzerland. the chinese post fishing is that we must 1st understand the root causes of the crisis is necessary to abandon the mentality of the cold war when we considered each other opponents. enemies is necessary to clear the subscribe to the need to look for solutions that will take into account the balance of interest in the field of security and ensure the indivisibility of security. this is a completely different approach while russia is portrayed as somebody that those of one piece, i mean, even in the global stage it's,

it's russia that's looking for the escalation in the middle east. the escalation when it comes to buy one and actually the escalation and ukraine, as you can see, there are willing to attend the talks, but it was the west to pulled your brain away from those thoughts. he described the western leaders as in some ways, you know, absolutely obsessed with this conflict. this idea that they can inflict strategic defeat on russia desperately need to get money out of their parliaments to continue the war. and united states a can see how they have already cooled down. i don't know how the world will and now the drama this weekend on the consideration of 3 different bills, including on ukraine. but now the most cells wants to advocate the continuation of bumping ukraine with money and weapons are the europeans. they're already so unequivocally route. and in general, having already cut off a path declared that frustrates anatomy that it must be destroyed, not allow twins to save you crank, they'll just be finished as politicians if they change this rhetoric. secondly, they need to give money to explain why they've already deprived your population of cheap gas to pipelines. oil white price of jumped, why

d industrialization is taking place as a result of sanctions. and even from their point of view, they kind of freeze the conflict. they all have a choice in a month to 3 for their national elections to the european parliament and in a huge number of e u countries. but i think the opposition will not miss the chance in any case, to show what their policy has led to in terms of social economic consequences. so again, fascinating language, interesting language. and you can see the exasperation that you know, the west is essentially decided that russia is the enemy, rocher can only send that, come a can never be sent against, and ukraine, or anywhere else for that matter. but also a sense that russia is pragmatic. that the door is open for peace negotiation, but those know goes to negotiate, just have to accept and realize russia's legitimate security concerns. and the re runs president has defended last weekend strike, bounty ordered against israel in retaliation for the deadly bombing. they'll be a really in conflict in damascus and put him right as

a say is his country's response was a fight will show a force. now maybe your visa duration became a sign of the problem of the slug, republican and beats on forces of all these move was necessary. i'm obligatory will give me fun and the souls of tribes and pop of our great country. but i have a very well, let's go through it because that statement comes and made reports of, of the legend as really a talking around spokesman for the uranium civil space program. phase 3 pro square shop turnover is for home city, which is known for hosting nuclear research sites around this being bracing for a large scale response from west jerusalem. one week ago, the stomach republic launched hundreds of drones and missiles of israel, which itself claims to have shot most of them done earlier in april. first, the nurse try killed 16 people up uranium consulate in the syrian capital is real, initially denied responsibility. but later in directly admitted it had targeted the

building, claiming it served as a military base for coordinating her must operations. following its retaliation to the tech, a run said it's ready to hit bock with much greater force if any of its nuclear facilities were attacked by d i. d f. israel's main ally, the u. s. planes. it wants to see things come down. we're committed to as real security. we're also committed to de escalate to trying to bring this attention to a to a close. well in um dissipation, all this really military action cries of armenians helping, voicing their full throated support for the islamic nations. government ortiz use of july, they can take us through as the capital of the country, have changed. riley's after the weekly friday for you,

additional support for the recent process. serious on april. what may be on the part of the people who are holding fires, expressing gratitude for home furnishings, as well as one of the facilities. the act of self that has to do to future is where the goes to the wrong place. the vision reveals the reasons for the minimum our ballistic missiles cannot be intercepted by the higher the western world was. nuclear activities, this part of the destruction confirm

a whole nature of the country's comic program after one has never any prospect confusing a nuclear weapon, but it seems that is well to resort to some people say well water, who is this? where else falls as it was the 1st just pull the trigger by targeting your warranty and military figures. so all the current situation remains on a nice as is where the officials waiting. there are next exchanges between the 2 sides, offline vision, and course change reflects that could potentially use for regional call. ford essentially is continued to wise on track or something else to tell you about today . chad has become the latest nation to show washington the door, and jemina is toll the us to withdraw its troops, roman army base,

and the central african country. the statement came from the dean or force chief, who said the american presence is no longer legal. regional journalist, him and feel base or can tell us more. a hi there of diplomatic and sovereignty surrounds the relations between the united states and lashondra and military authorities. also asked you, general interest on an honest issue to notice the v. you as the french calling of the united states military activities in the air based object closer. according to the statement in outline official letterhead, america fails to provide for the documents of bilateral agreements just defined the state of the face onto a pile. notice to do so. just a force has ask the americans to provide the documents or but that's what agreements just to find the presence at a g co say advice in response to 2 agreements. ruined on logistical support and the

personnel between our 2 states. but just air force did not receive justification of the us presence. charged air force ask the us defense at the shape to immediately stop the basic services at the a g cause a add base, big thoughts, non broken us trust in the country is on the class. what's not in a forty's, early readiness to terminate the status of forces agreement, which allows the us military to walk right in the country. washington is yet to respond to the new director, but an intelligent source for support to cnn said the notice was not sent through official diplomatic channels, describing it as add ports on the usual way to convey such a significant message. but notice also do not directly order of the us troops to withdrawal from charge. but washington risks losing its military presence in the opposite can come to me last month in jerry and authorities asking us to recall its troops following the crew last july. that was to president mohammed by zoom before

them about $1100.00 us troops of trade in out of the babies are sprinkled in a $100000000.00 long bass rear of a ceiling evocative essentially sir. news in the fight against just has groups across the whole region is us. i need to go see the, the american presence in the territory of the republic of new jersey. the legal violates all the constitutional and democratic rules which would require the silver and people, notably, so its elected officials to be consulted on the installation of a, for an army in its territory. the government of new year taking into account the aspirations and interest of its people besides was full responsibility to denounce was immediate. the fact, the agreement relating to the status of military person all the united states and civilian employees of the american department of defense and the territory of the republic of new here shot has struggled with that serial rate in military and political condition since 2021 disputes over electoral transparency have been

excessive waiting tensions between the us and todd. what the timing of the directory ocean lasers questions about? notice the decision comes in terms of political context. i have a push on may 6th presidential contest where chops transitional president mohammed is buried and his prime minister, a success mass right. or a long notable content as well. sounds like it could be a way for the military to negotiate a more beneficial agreement with washington to us, established diplomatic relations with chalk in 1960 following its independence from france and by lateral corporations between both nations includes a security packed on counterterrorism. what was the current trend? it is not glass. how much longer of the us can hold it? sport in africa, tennessee, or peasy? archie, a whole job like syria, united for peace. those were the words or former us president,

bill clinton. that's mark the beginning of nato's bombing campaign in the former yugoslavia. 25 years ago. the alliance rained on tens of thousands of bombs and missiles getting hundreds of civilians, so i was tardy dollars until the yugoslav army withdrew from costs of all. what follows is there a special coverage of those events and the mark the left on history on, on the lives of looks the way i can protect thousands of innocent people in the, to the fuse a powder keg at the heart of bureau to stand united with our allies, for faith. my generation never to see those in europe again,

the latest bonding wasn't only limited to military targets on april 19th, 1999 large explosions were heard at dawn in bel grade. as our strikes had petroleum refineries and chemical plants, government buildings and other civilian infrastructure across the country were also attacked. nato officials subsequently defended the blocks devastating assault, and also blame the done fault of europe and security on russia, with more than the legacy left behind. here's our t charlotte to been ski in belgrade of nature's aggression against what was then you could solve the a more significant turning point in world history. the so called rule space international old was smashed with the alliance, engaging in military force with that the approval of the un security council. now

that action still has run this occasions to this very day. this was the 1st time ne, to completely violate this phone. 3 to that for you to is a copy of the un charter adage point $5.00 to $5.00. that is one of the members are attacked. the other screen. it has nothing to do in yugoslavia. it has nothing to do when you find it has nothing to do in your rack or anywhere else . an organization that for 25 years operate against its own 32 should be investigated. what happened in the lead to 1999 has many power allows with the crating conflict now. and while the west states washer is attacking the coal principles of the you and show it to us award, the president put an open lead declared from the outset is named at erasing ukraine from the map as a sovereign country. the west ignores the fact that as part of nato it has with

pieces we've done this itself. the best example of what is, of course ukraine, because when one nato tells the world, oh we're just helping ukraine defend itself. young sheldon, but the nato secretary general has admitted that nato has been in ukraine actively involved in ukraine bombing training. ukrainian forces since 2014 nathan knew exactly what he was doing. this was an academic version of hey, in the former yugoslavia a need to is accused of committing crimes. you're going to be so this you maybe mold in free of us. yes. they keeps telling us that it was justified that they had to bomb us for us like but then in the next sentence says, they tell us that they sorry for some bland as me exists sign. yes and other children killed in may type bombing in 1999. the one they tried to tell us is no, we know, sorry,

because we've done our job ripping apart. so the nato has consistently rejected those claims, rushing into office, necessary or collateral damage. yet at the same time it a key usually is russia with talented. preston tutoring is failing in ukraine. and he is just bonding with more brutality waves of deliberate me. so attacks on see this on the civilian infrastructure, there are other power levels to the intervention of nature and you could solve you resulted in a demand for parts of the country. costs are going to be recognized as a sold for an state lands asinique albanians and to this day. so it'd be, has refused to pay even recognize the breakaway region, despite the constant pressure from nato allies. at the same time, these allies consistently have denied cools by academic russians in don't boss and quite me to determine that own feature. you know,

it's essentially when you use something helps creating a bunch of independent states that are likely to be in nato allies. nato is suddenly in favor of succession, is a tax, so it'd be a bonds, the prize costs of the way through terrorism, co ocean bombing us. they essentially to give up a piece of territory, then it recognizes it. and then they turn around to the, the, the, the east of the, the, the residence hall, the dumbass you power where you much, you've already express your will through a referendum. you have to say in the states that you don't want to be a fall. so need to claim vixen convention in serbia and before that in both me, it was only to keep peace yet. such functions have resulted in decades of tensions in the balkans.

the what this point with nato allies of accused russia of shattering the peace in europe. it is clear that nato has not done enough and what russia has done, the shots is the security architecture of europe. it's a great to appeal to swallow, to recognize what and falls into, oh no, she's in a quarter of a century. all nature is still refusing to do all, you know, just in relation to it's illegal campaign and you could smell of, you know, rock, i've done this on libya. how it enables the purpose of islamic state. now, how it piles ukraine high with arms. that is something seen by many, including the global size as being the problem solids. even scale reporting for all
