4:11 am
several trucks were set on fire rock place online groups where people paced information on where the trucks will be calling on all those available to come and stop the 8 the mileage in front of the main argument, notion of any terry and assistance before all is really hostages or free. i guess you've seen the pictures of the attacks on humanitarian tracts destined for gaza. how you feel about it, a war and about your trip. it's very dangerous smell just a little, but what can we do? what do you just done by all people and deliver the to them? for 45 am, simon is ready to go the
4:12 am
as soon as we start moving, we support at the lease car for a moment. we think it is for the truck security, but it is not well its really supposed to ensure the safety of international humanitarian aid transport of fluids, territory. it doesn't provide convoys with passports. when attacks happen, police arrive at the scene, even occasionally arresting the most active settlers. but it doesn't stop others from continuing the very next day. the u. s. has condemned the souls as a total outrage. jordan has criticized israel failing to safeguard crucial supplies, while human rights groups labeled these incidents as acts of terror, the
4:13 am
6 am, we try to engage argument in conversation, but he appears focused and reserved. it's about 2 hour drive. tough is already covered with threats remain the while on the roadways, bought a number of trucks similar to ions, although many of bound for guys on the avoid traveling together in the convoy to minimize the risk of costs and passwords sets. there is the 7, 10 am we arrive to the frontier. gas is less than kilometer away where the care i'm show on crossing on a is road g as a boulder it leads to the southern parts of the probably seen it in play. it has
4:14 am
been the key entry for a few minutes here in a 12 guys and since the 1st try for cents for the street, but it still remains. so. since the beginning of the war and of cobra, more than 27000 vehicles, more than a half a 1000000 tons of supplies worse. and so the guy who has 3, but most of it went through here, this vital passage has been closed for some time following a deadly walk. if attack the time my super responsibility for. but now these really authorities say that it's reopens and it is functioning in a day. and we see that there are many trucks here. some of them that go in through to check for, and some of them are going to be inspected and continued a way to the guy is a 3 where the supplies they are carried off and such a desperate need humanitarian organizations and international organizations like the u. n r alarming, that's fam, and is spreading there in the in place where it literally everybody out of 2300000
4:15 am
population suffers from food and water shortages. find one on his truck through each tier. luckily, without any trouble on the roads with a set, there is a tax on humanitarian convoys, tests and full gaza being on the rise, we can say that everybody could be that lucky and even his next 3 would be different. right? for an auction now to you, reporting from israel and get them show on crossing the so that deputy prime minister has condemned the pro western media and politicians over their criticism of rubber feed. so saying the base plus attacks caused the recent assassination attempt against them. a game, so maybe spell them is that i thought equal both to go as long as the onset of the rest 3 consolidations selected. the median journalist which for years has been built on the day the labeling of robot of feet. so as a criminal and the fios of a mother, i think the to put in 7th and an evil that must be stuff and they will do other
4:16 am
thing. they can't insure the trouble feature does not prove it is impossible to go further. self reflection is the only way for which one sincere apologies need it, because all these lies are the main reason why rubber fits. he's fighting for his life today. shortness but keep, so here are some of the western media headlines that ignited anti feed. so segment the leader was betrayed as a pro russian politician. despite the in calling the despite calling himself pro slovak with some articles even referred to his government as being authoritarian. according to the slow back minister misinformation like this could have led to the near fatal attack. a reminder, the slovaks, prime minister, was shot multiple times by the silent earlier this week. the footage from the scene, it shows a panic spread through the crowd, waiting to meet the country's leader. the attacker shot prime minister fee to as he
4:17 am
left a government building, his cards rushed at the prime minister into a car before he was airlifted to a hospital from a safe location. the suspect was immediately taken into custody and an exclusive interview to archie from a slovak prime minister in charge. of course you suggested the shocking incident was instigated by western media. one of the reasons i see that the so called mainstream media are opposing feats. so because fits those policy and features government because they are supported from the west end, partly the owners of this media are western western companies. and that's, that's creates a situation. and so like, yeah, the majority of this makes the media us uh, going against the majority. don't tell opinion of sort like citizens and to yes that's, that's create tension in society or
4:18 am
to use. yes. so that can, has more details reporting from outside the assailants home. and this here is a residential complex. and these, the walk in town of livid say, behind me is the residential complex, in which the assailants tried to assassinate somebody in 5 minutes, a little back feet. so on one of the balconies is a russian flag. it symbolizes the unity of the residents. here, as well as some show of sympathy, particularly because of the assailants, is currently being accused of siding with pro ukrainian pro western and pro liberal values. whereas the locals and the government, us to walk. you are trying to push for more nationalistic, but more traditional values. now this is important because we spoke to some of the locals, hesitant to speak on camera, but very vocal about where they stand with respect to the events that took place. many local suggests the family was a good family that it came as a bit of
4:19 am
a surprise. others and suggests when speaking to them at a local pub said the same and did not try to introduce himself with the local society. and we understand, over the course of the last few years, he has had drastic shifts in his political alignments. in 2016 the wasn't essentially a line with pro russian or pro slovakian national interest. and in 2022, we took a complete turn and decided to side with pro ukrainian pro western and pro liberal values. we understand speaking to locals and reports from local newspapers suggests the ceiling was also a member of a number of organizations. many with different political alignments than ideologies . it was kicked out of each of those organizations which provides some sort of an idea into the mindset of the statements he was initially against total. that fits was political alignment as well. we understand in 2023 when little that fits so was running for office. he vowed to put an end to harm supplies to ukraine and upon assuming office in 2023. got to deliver on that promise. we also understand the
4:20 am
government is currently opposing ukraine's bid at least the potential of joining nato saying that it will stand in his way, making everything into account. we've also encountered a difference between the big locals here and love it, sir. and hungover, where are the types of places as well as the capital, the locals, and we spoke to them, but that stuff is suggesting that they were surprised. not because the attack took place because it took so long, whereas the people here and lived. so the locals for the football game nationals been, all of us have a different approach. they have more pro government, which really makes this come as a surprise for many locals here because they're surprised. that's the same thing. was from one of these poll governments, towns. we also understand, of course, much of these rhetoric. so debates are happening at a time when the european union just questioning this phone identity as well as its form policies. many suggested the governments step robust throw betsy. so as for the leading is pro russian, but if you ask local politicians,
4:21 am
it will suggest it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with signing with one side or the other. but it has to do with siding with slovakia, building its own national interest. it's phone foreign policy solver and an independent from the european union, nato, which the volunteer is both a member to just and i can are to individually. slovakia, france has declared a state of emergency and is overseas territory of new caledonia. in a bid to qual the protests. paris has sent a 1000 additional troops to the south pacific islands, some 16000 kilometers away from the french mainland. the french justice minister says, order must be restored swiftly because the 3 woods in my circular awesomeness speed and system up. why am i saying this? because it is imperative that republican order be restored and it is imperative just as it was during the riots we experienced in mainland fronts, which have very similar points to what is happening in new caledonia that we have
4:22 am
these offices. and the judiciary must play its full policy and providing these offices. so i would like to remind you that the justice system was there for us during the riot who's new caledonia, as a french tony in 2024. it's starting to look a bit like algeria as a french colony in the fifty's and sixty's when there was a, a fight for self determination there as well. and that's exactly what perish is looking to prevent. we're talking here about an island that's closer to us. trulia in the pacific then is to france than what exactly happened to kick off all of this new unrest. well, 1st president menu is not because really party and the french national assembly. on the other side of the world, i might add here in paris, decided to introduce a new law, meaning the french people who have lived in new caledonia for 10 years could vote in the islands elections. which means that thousands more people living there would
4:23 am
be added to be electra roles. now some vocal leaders are saying that the new move risks die, moving the vote of the native cannot just saw and we feel oppressed, we are angry, everything is happening over that. and be a one dream, i'll be the kind of people being heard the most crucial. but what i realize is that the french have never thought about as they talk about sharing and balance. but at the same of being the case, that's gonna pop. but we can't go on like this, we won't get anywhere with threats, violence or our discussion that works for everyone is needed so that we can find sincerity. serenity and above all peace fits. so there's a sense to adding a 1000 the more voters instantly to the islands voting bass is a way of tipping the scales by at the very least di, looting, any block voting by the pro independence crowd, which heresies as absolutely critical to suppress in some way all the seems to have
4:24 am
prompted independence officials to just kick off some for an outreach like and as or by john, just last month. and then basically doing the francis trying to implemented the colonial policy in terms of legislation. new caledonia has same various agreements with funds from time to time through them. paris was supposed to support the independence of new caledonia. but today, frances, trying to limit the rights of ethnic minorities by making changes to the constitution. today, france does not comply with its obligations, thereby deviating from neutrality. francis trying to prevent the holding of a 3rd or random on the subs, terminate ssion of the people of new caledonia. we believe that the world community should recognize the right of all peoples to self determination. we continue our struggle for independence. the question is, why would france water create a major new flash point with this new law that could drive the independence movement to make the kind of trouble that is already seen? 5 people killed and unrest of thousands of police deployed from mainland france.
4:25 am
surely, it couldn't have anything to do with frances wandering at all in any cost to water down any possibility the independent has wouldn't ever have the chance to govern over the 3rd largest producer of nichol for things like making electric car batteries. and it really represented 6 percent of the world's output, new caledonia is, or couldn't possibly mean that the movement to grow into something like what happened in algeria resulting in president shaft. they've got, basically just casting off algeria as a french call me. and in this particular case, terraces, fear is that if that ever happened with new caledonia, well, the big benefit and the big gains would probably go to beijing or even maybe to the us since and bassinger was sniffing around last october. the bhaskar from france
4:26 am
went there and, and paid a bit of a visit, which was kind of interesting. i mean, well, a new caledonia and indigenous group known as the canucks has organized a raleigh in paris. protesters are outraged by the french government's state of emergency declaration in their home territory. minorities union leader has condemned paris for choosing to send troops with others. we wish for the situation to come down in the course and to see the french government to make a strong political statement rather than send troops. that's not something that will get talks back on track. starting a conversation would be a strong political statement, sending the army to another country is not usually to hong fox. and to furnish sentiment is not only being held to new caledonia the cynically as prime minister has suggested the possibility of expelling french troops. as much sancho says, their presence undermines the west african countries that sovereignty more than 60 years after our independence. we must question the reasons why the french army,
4:27 am
for example, steal benefits from several military bases in our country and the impact of this presence on their national sovereignty and the strategic autonomy. i reiterate here the desire of senegal to have its own control, which is incompatible with the lasting presence of foreign military bases. incentive go. the seneca legislators folk at a joint conference with french left wing politicians on this milan sean. the 1st political figure from paris to be welcomed in senegal by the new government that has been in power for 6 weeks. some $350.00 french troops are currently stationed in the african nation under a biological security packed, or they are senegalese neighbors, molly routine of also a need. you're also ousted fresh troops from their swell, eroding traditional friends influence on the continent. this article is premier also spoke of the necessity for the country to switch to a more flexible currency peg to at least 2 other forms of cash. as of now, senate all uses the euro peg to see if
4:28 am
a from currency shared with southern other west african nations, which is criticized for being a tool for french influence in the region. author and foreign policy researcher in this, the whole region tier know the up new young. it says it's time for african states to take responsibility for their own issues after the counterproductive french military presence. that is the, i think that we must assume all our responsibility is to take care of security ourselves. because the presence of the french army on african soil is obsolete, our security cannot be entrusted or subcontracted to a western power. even france, what is actually happening in the saw hills? there is an upsurge in organized crime and radicalism. we had the western army with france as a bridge had come to support the sa hill countries to beat down and try and over what is happening in the saw hill. unfortunately, this did not happen,
4:29 am
but since taking charge of our own security in molly as in brook you know, fast. so we have seen that the terrorists, or at least the criminals have backs down. so the french military presence has not served to put an end to cross border crime. and even if our armies are disorganized, it is with our own means that we are now fighting against criminals or radicals throughout the saw hill. it is no longer a case of friends taking the lead and dictating what should be done to african countries. i do say with r t international, i'll be back with much more news in about 30 minutes. in the meantime, you can be sure to visit our website or to dot com for the very latest breaking news. and updates by the

political pundits in the united states are to be believed. the issues of border security and undocumented immigration will be the over riding political themes of this year's presidential election. donald trump famously said in 2016 that he would build a wall along the us mexico border and of mexico will pay for it and quote, that was ridiculous. of course, republicans now excuse joe biden, of having what they call an open border policy. that too is ridiculous. 12 biden's rhetoric may not be as angry or in some cases as up to says trump's fighting is no friend of the immigrant without a visa. i'm john kerry onto welcome to the whistle blowers, news . 2 2 2 i'd like to read you something.
