8:01 pm
the breaking news continue 0, an aussie international. and before we joined our correspondent impress slot that let's give you some updates because the slovak prime minister robot feet. so what shot multiple times as he was leaving the local government meeting, the attacker was arrested at the saying, the country's defense minister said the assassination attempt was politically motivated. holcomb is a, it is beyond any doubt that it was a political assault with a political background. you all know that very well and i can't cope with that internally of the style. so the mama import, let's see all we received information from the operating doctors. the prime minister is in critical condition and his life is in danger. he is still in the operating room. let's get more details all across to our correspondent bears. yes. and i can yes. and can you bring us up to speed? what do we know so far?
8:02 pm
rory, 1st and foremost, the status of the prime minister is currently critical. he is under surgery and we don't have much information as to how long that search a little less than what the outcome will be. but based on the statements provided early on the broadcast as well, we understand that this will continue throughout the night. so we will be following the developments in that respect, but taking a step back and a broader look at what really happened here. there's a little bit of controversy. the controversy is there, of course, because of the motivation behind the attack, the attacker was to be essentially a fairly old man who had no clear motive in the 1st place. he is known to be an officer who has penned a number of collected poems and speaking to some of the locals. they say that his poems had a great deal of racism and bigotry embedded in his,
8:03 pm
in his approach. so that kind of offers some light into the mindset of the attacker . but initially of course, the motive is not quite clearly understood whether it was political or anything else. but just looking at the statements coming from role leaders as well as government officials. from slovakia it suggests that it could very well be politically motivated. looking at, for example, of the present like computer better grand. he calls the attack on president attack against the democracy of slovakia as well as especially highlighting and emphasizing the importance of not resorting to violence at times of disagreements. and we also understand that the outgoing president, capital that has essentially referred to the attack as brutal and ruthless we heard from russian president vladimir fulton who is called the attack. and it was conduct the attack for the most part. and then we've also heard from the un secretary general, who essentially went into details suggesting that the attack was uncalled for. and that piece should be a should set
8:04 pm
a precedent here. but just based on everything that we've read here, of course it offers one aspect, but local government officials suggest that the liberal media had some part to do with this. that all that fits those policies was also the reason behind it. looking at some of the information that was provided over the course of his last few terms, we understand that he served as a prime minister in each one, c, i in the years, 20062010 as well. later in the 20 times, and this is his 3rd term in office, and we understand that the prime minister has what some might refer to as an empty west pro russia position. however, looking at some of the, of course, the 1st, the things that he took into office is going to be a great deal of importance here. because before it, he was elected in 2023. as a, as a result of his election campaign, said that he will do everything in his power to put an end to supplying arms to ukraine. and in the early days of his government,
8:05 pm
he did in fact immediately actually hold to the delivery of arms to ukraine. and this resulted in, of course, thousands of people taking to the streets and protests to, to him and his policies. but we also understand the over the course of last few weeks and months, the leadership of so lucky essentially highlighted that this position that the government is taking is not necessarily pro russia or n t west. but it's a matter of building a sovereign identity, solving foreign policy for the country. and this is of course, a trend that has been taken over the european block as a whole. we understand earlier this week, chinese presents choosing being visited france, serbian hungry, and his visit to serbia. there was a very similar sense of and by the serbians for example. they also said that we are trying to pursue a solving foreign policy. not something that necessarily contradicts the policies of the european union or the collective west. nato was also a great matter of discussion here, but something that could in one way or another complement of the existing policies . so there was a great deal of back and forth. we're going to have to wait for more statements
8:06 pm
from government officials to understand of course, a native of the motives behind the attack as well as the condition of the problem. and it's sort of betsy, so probably right in front as well. but a correspondent guessing, i think we heard earlier from midland over to a member of the european parliament forces like you the highlights what the motives may have been of alice. i probably wouldn't blame society for this effect. i think that most of the citizens are where the peaceful people who don't agree of course are with this attack. i think perhaps the ones who are to blame for this, i thought, are petitions and perhaps journalist who fills up the hate amongst coming people. and then less stable people simply explode the gun and they start shooting at the politics on. so this is from late. the main reason off coast is us as a nation at them to wheel has sort of thrown political consequences on sort of politics because peace has never happened before. and this is where
8:07 pm
a critical situation. i think that one of the biggest outcomes we'll, which we will have to change is to hate speech being sprayed by may seem protest or media against only think of openness because these hate speech from the media is the source of the face on political things on in the floor like society and we see the result we see the result of we see the shooting on the streets on public representatives. and this cannot be accepted anymore. or we don't know exactly about the reasons which were behind it and thought they were obviously political reasons. and it is very possible that one of the reasons that was also this recording team. i totally amongst looks. it is iris and i'm on an excellent a communications. please don't worry. come on to call for face to call for counseling on production sanctions. also our participle is decent throat and so we go for counseling, other hand sanctions. and we see that our political opponents are willing to take
8:08 pm
their fight against this opening to the very extreme actions. and because i said before, this has to stop because if they start shooting or to even killing people because of political opinions because of quoting for peace or calling for cancelling sanctions, which are destroying our industry that so we're unfortunate situation which has to be stuff of the, here's some photo taken just moments off of the attack. the prime minister boy shot his years trying to leave. he was a like a left at the hospital for surgery. some commentary now with i want to contribute to rachel mazda and he still was elected prime minister last october. but he certainly wasn't as 1st rodeo having been previously elected twice before. talking about rodeo. he's more like a bucking bronco in the use tranquil garden. if you use a chief diplomat deals, a browse term is popular, listed nationalist positions, have a tendency to rival the western establishment and where to start their. it's hard
8:09 pm
to know he's 1st of all against ukraine's integration and to nato has been really vocal about that. he said, the reason why the conflict in ukraine kicked off in the 1st place is because of all the violence towards rest, the phones in the dog bass region. he's been particularly vocal about the need for peace rather than continued war and ukraine. but as none the less said that slow back he is military industrial complex can continue to cash in our weapons sales to ukraine. because hey, why not? who's military industrial complex isn't right now, but ever since he's greenlit, that's the government greenwood that he's been basically going around complaining about it. so obviously he's trying to keep them happy and office back because hey, it's probably not a very good idea to make enemies with the military industrial complex probably best to placate on. but he also said this, this locking government would not be sending military aid over to ukraine, just humanitarian aid, to some extent,
8:10 pm
and he cited corruption more recently. he reacted to french president a menu of mac homes, obsession of talking about some potential future troop deployment. to you for and features said, hey, look, i really don't see that happening. and not only that, i don't really see ukraine is back use problem at all. okay. and i, it's like you, his other and bigger problems than ukraine. we don't agree with the army in ukraine . this will do everything also as a part of the issue and support everything for peace in ukraine and efforts to start these think associations on ukraine. the initial step 13 at today's meeting, became clear that i have different opinions on some topics with mister prime minister of ukraine. above all, it is a view of the war in ukraine. i retreated that i did not believe in the military solution to this conflict system asked for my done you in 2014. after the my done ukraine became entirely controlled by the us. why did the russian present order the use of military force and ukraine? imagined mexico next to you with his defense ministry, an entire political scene, including the present and government under full russian control. now imagine mexico
8:11 pm
joined in military organization with russia. police, a decisive role. what would you do this argument, these rational ukraine is not sovereign and it's entirely under us control. discuss president. i am against the membership of ukraine and nato, and i will veto it. it would merely be a basis for world war 3. nothing else. ukraine is not an independent and sovereign country, it is under the total influence and control of the united states. just the other day pizza was railing about the u. 2 as or by johnny tv during the visit over there complaining that the blocks and tolerates of independent thought like is a real problem. and in the wake of this assassination attempt to de condolences were quick to roll in from some of feet goes political allies. this as a nation attempt of prime minister rubbers because shocking and stunning who would have thought that such a brutal tech could happen in central europe. we hope for his speed of recovery and pray for him. there's great need for roberts to go instill of i can in european politics. shocked by the shooting of my long time. colleague, prime minister,
8:12 pm
robert fitz, so its locked. yeah. i wish him much strength. my thoughts are with him in his family. i was deeply shocked by the heinous attack against my friend prime minister robert vid. so we pray for his health and quick recovery. god bless him in his country. i am shocked by the attempted assassination of robert fitz. so a great friend to me and to serbia. dear friend, i pray for you and for your health you are paying commission prizes. and ursula vander lines of fact though queen of europe also denounced the active violence. she also sent her best spots to the family. and to feed, so no wishes for a speedy recovery though. guess he's free to take his time during the presidential election in march feats. those opponents were drumming up fear over citizens voting for a fee to ally peter pelligrini, but well, people voted for him. anyway, the presidential election will decide if slovakia truly stays in western club or joins hungry or bela roost. the fear is that pellegrini will act hand in hand with
8:13 pm
fee goes direction of foreign policy, which could have a devastating effect on slovakia. here that folks, you should probably theory on democracy. well now some of feats as allies are straight up painting this attack on the vive. that was created by opposition, politicians like that and also the media rhetoric that went along with it. most of the body, ladies and gentleman enrollment fee. so is not only the prime minister of the slovak republic, but also a friend on behalf of the political parties to me, a slight back social democracy. i want to condemn in the strongest possible times. what happened today in hand glove, and at the same time express my disgust of what you've been doing here for the last few years. you the liberal media of the political opposition or hatred, your spreading against robot. me so i want a gallows. you have a rex it for me, this anger, this rage and this hatred is the result of your actions today. progressives for
8:14 pm
means high, all positions of the liberal media. and you just the reaction of the western process been interesting. it's not totally predictable, qualifying feats. so 1st and foremost, as an ally of russian president, binary pulse and because of course, everything everywhere has to automatically be related back to putin and russia. nothing can exist. vacuum all on its own. britons telegraph newspaper also reported on the attack saying, and the headline that feed so head terms when back. yeah. into one of brushes, only allies, kind of like see, look what happens to you when your friends, which is a 180 degree turn, or a bare box 360, if you're in germany from the usual take, that would be it's punch in the enemies who get this type of treatment and now they're saying it's his friends too. so i guess i'm just really cameron. we were getting more of this and i was speaking with former virginia state science and mr. richard black. and he explains that this attack is a reflection of a deep up struggle inside,
8:15 pm
in your opinion. there's tremendous nervous noise from, from ukraine and from elsewhere within the whole nato alliance. anybody who breaks ranch presents that threat. slovakia is a small country, generally speaking that's 5 and a half 1000000 people. but is just their ability to add weight to what the prime minister or bottom rate has been doing. all this instead of one, you don't have to, and then it becomes much easier to have a 3rd when you think side the ways that we are seeing a tremendous portion for throughout bureau against all of the populace. our price range, the because i think that there's a fear that will have the populace parties like the a of the party in germany, which know, will have an upsurge. and we'll begin to take the side of the people of
8:16 pm
germany in this case for all of the other countries. but it's just representing the bureaucrats and brussels. they will begin to represent the people that the people of europe do not want more with russia. it's that simple for you. we're already saying with the a f d party in germany. all of a sudden they're all sorts of legal claims that you know, being made against the members who are running for office there. there's a, there's a crime against the a f d that one of their members has a russian spy on his staff. and so there's no limitation on what to do. obviously they, yes, some nation is. here's the last, the last strong we've heard from a former officer in
8:17 pm
a foreign minister can recognize. well, he joined the idea. she thinks that this attack is a reflection of the rhetoric that's been spreading across europe. have a listen. it's a climate of very bad wrestle, rick, and so i, i shared his assessments that the climate of violence, that's climate has made impossible any sort of civilized debate of different opinions. we have in many central european countries, including germany and austria, white and black. that is no time last little space for any grade. there is no space for any live friends that live hits old about you or me when i saw the unfortunate the very 1st reactions of bias um social media in ukraine at the bottom line or some of those posting flaws for next. i mean it's, it's horrible. it's like, uh, in, in the, in the and it kind of why west the game was next on the list to be executed. and
8:18 pm
the man who was arrested is 71 years old. you know, he's not the, he's not the young uh, i'd say testosterone driven by roland guy. i know he's a 71 year old man who has had his life and he unfortunately sees no other way to channel his hatred, his emotions, whatever. maybe he, he has not had enough, uh, web posting, so of hatred. so this is, this is a very, very deplorable situation because his tennessee that some of them get out of their, uh computer or the room and, and uh, they really take your diamonds and get into the bloody actions. it's a black and a confrontation. it's has become even hysterical, highly emotional, i always speak of teenagers and other thoughts and it's even can become loving as
8:19 pm
we see you with this as a nation of them. so i'm going to, it's not, it's not a surprise. and if it pushed out further, who would see more and more, a kind of trends going out of the paula mans into the streets and that it becomes danger. very dangerous. the general, all of us special operations come on to set the quiet pod out loud e specifically. now here's the presence of british ship special forces on the ground in ukraine. during his recent interview with the associated press, the article was very quickly edited. but the way back machine remembers it'll do united states is taking a lot of lessons learned out of the experience in ukraine, mostly through the eyes of our u. k. special operations partners who not only have done that in their formations, but they've also learned very quickly that they needed other elements of their joint force. he told the associated press in the interview off to the article was
8:20 pm
edited. the official statement regarding pritchens presence in ukraine was suddenly deleted, as well as the pond which earlier said that the washington is learning lessons from its u. k. partners. the article size of an example given by the us army officials in which he states that the british come on those need help to quote, get them to understand the ways ships operate in the black sea and how they navigate. we gaze, reaction, withdrawn listings, future profess expert, come in hon. i'm actually a united be shipped from united states. as you did that, you get an estimate, the g, the whole scenario bar, and that's what i need to and i keep getting them and you guys have some understanding that i'm gonna give david to the dollar you know, table for basically gonna be part of the law then for me by the law, and that is very dangerous for the piece of the be something was and it could be the, it is like a, i would say that you do the kind of approval cation for. busy this year i always
8:21 pm
said that many which many tasks do for you to speak. america have a view, a standard many do something for their favor. they would talk about the normal speed, but then maybe some people criticize them or bend something to expose american liberal, gracie or somebody to explore the standard of america or the standard of uh, you know, freedom of speech are different and they used to enforce any install any kind of information we can do for them that i do, or the perception of the multi photo world before our eyes. russia is leading states when to write that, trusting down to stay as all 3 lands in china. it's the thought of vitamin hooton's to day trip and his 1st trip abroad since last week's integration. plenty on the agenda from building bricks, the new soap road ukraine and the gaza of correspondence are in the region to companies. this is his 1st visit since his 5th annual grace and as leader of russia . and of course, he is said to meet with shooting,
8:22 pm
paying on the what quite interesting, the vladimir put it will be joined by 2, both a full my car into ministers of defense of russia. the surgery show who and, and very below as of respectively is it's uh, also other ministers. it's diplomats, it's businessmen and it's advisors are they are not traveling empty handed. they do have a 6 stack of documents ready to be signed, then many of them are probably out of commercial in nature. so what it basically translates is big money and big business deals are about to be signed here. there is a warrant on his arrest issued by the international criminal court by him visiting china and of course, by shooting paying the chinese leader, giving him a very warm welcome. he. yeah, it kind of, it is all about diplomatic signal, a good kind of shows it is very of a very in your face gesture towards western nations who have been trying to isolate
8:23 pm
russia. this is like maybe just stood visits in the past few years. he's 1st visit since he's a little victory. and is no gratian. and again, this is something with being repeat, exists for, for several years now. relations between boston and china, our, to historic high m. e. these, there's honestly, a difficult to over estimate was over the state. how far relations have come. they seem like many other countries, once the ukrainian crisis to be finished with google, it wants peace, it has put forward, but it was realistic piece plans that have been put forward like the width approach where but you can't get everything at once. russ, who gets nothing and gets humiliated to boot based, you propose as practicable and constructive steps to achieve peace by refraining from pursuing vested interests and constant escalation of tensions minimizing the
8:24 pm
negative impact of the conflict on the global economy and the stability of global value change the steps build on the idea that we need to forego with the cold war mentality. unfortunately, neither ukraine nor it's west and patrons support these initiatives. they are not ready to engage in an equal honest, an open dialogue based on mutual respect and consideration of each other's interests. they are reluctant to discuss the underlying causes, the very origins of the global crisis. instead, western the leads are stubbornly working to punish russia. to isolate than we can it supplying the key of authorities with money and arms. they are illegally trying to appropriate our foreign assets. they are turning a blind eye to the resurgence of not season and to ukraine sponsor terrorist attacks. you know, territory when it comes to sight of russian relations, you can at the end of the day ease a minor footnote. they all based on,
8:25 pm
well that may approve the squads is a trust. and. 1 open dialogue, but there's of course, much more a to it than that year to date. russian chinese trade has grown up by almost 25 percent tre does. it's about the really in dollars. so there is certainly much further to do in motion chinese relations and gladly a piece of the highlights. a look at the west economic predicament. look at the how they are stumbling quite naturally, the d v. d lack lost the groove. now look at the way the russia and china a development, and he says the p, the russians pivots towards the east towards asia, has been proven to be historically the right decision, the mind, your business that's the take away from china is foreign ministry,

8:27 pm
like fortune american companies to transfer the technology in order to do business in china. i spent a lot of time sheets in early on. i told the reason why my been unfair, which i know try so look. so play by the savings if you want. it's not. comforters has cheated. and we've seen damage here in america over the years and certainly ahead of upcoming presidential elections. it seems that by the state of mind is changed regarding tariffs, that is we had from a blogger, and political analysts were alex reported by he says that washington engages in some bravo. on the handed techniques have a good listen to this is america using tariffs to try to shut down what we call competition. i thought competition was good america, that's which he builds your business principles on. but here we have a prime example of america can't compete. so let's bring on the terrorist america has this game plan where they figure that if we put a tax or
8:28 pm
a tear up on an industry, it's going to protect an industry in north america. but in fact, they were very, it hurts the consumer. and this is a country in america of over 330 or 40000000 yourself. individuals that have been suffering high interest rates the highest to 23 years. and as well, inflation that still is not under control. now these inflationary measures that they've tried to do to slow down inflation haven't worked so throwing extra tariffs and taxes on the products is going to fail very clear it has before and it will this time participate. all right, thanks for joining us right now to international all of us or is continuing online uh to call them telegram. gov and motors the,
