ministers of several in you countries including lithuania, estonia in iceland after raleigh, against the new transparency new of these people, spoken of rally, organized by the opposition. what should we call it? if not in insulting interference in the internal political affairs of our country, what is this? if not an insult, it is unacceptable when a foreign minister arrives and speaks at a rally, especially a diplomat. this is an unwritten law. this is a red line. and when they come out and tell us what to do, it is unacceptable. what kind of support is this? this is a blatant interference, a violation of everything. and they pretend to be our friends. you are being foreign ministers arrived into being see on wednesday and then participated in volley, protesting that new the speak of the georgian haldeman to 6 use. the western diplomats are trying to withdraw the government. meanwhile, as suddenly as foreign ministers threatened georgia with new sanctions. washington has also issued similar warnings. if the law goes forward
3:03 pm
because of conformity with you norms, we will see restrictions coming from the united states. those tend to be financial and or travel restrictions on the individuals responsible for those actions and their families. we will see the parliament what the problem it does. but if this legislation passes, it will compel us to fundamentally reassess our relationship with georgia. alexander church, you heads the center for the study of globalization problems, and he tells us that foreign diplomats presence in georgia is a sign of efforts to undermine the current government. the, there was already certain patterns when something anti russian is growing or happening somewhere along the perimeters of the border of the russian federation representatives of the baltic. governments are always present there. they have led their own countries into a state of complete despair. with half the population destroyed their industrial
3:04 pm
potential, which was very high after they gained independence. well, now they're trying to share this experience, apparently with other posts of the countries in georgia. this is perceived extremely negatively by the broad masses of the population. because such a brazen interference and internal affairs is simply outrageous. why don't they go with similar demands with similar condemnation, for example, to the u. k. or the us, or israel, where similar laws on for an influence apply, but are much more stringent than the ones in georgia. but no, they do not go there. they do not condemn those laws. what's in georgia, where apparently they feel more at ease. i don't know for what reasons, thoughts they consider it necessary to come and to lecture the local government, the local population to threaten them with sanctions and whatever. no one doubt it to me that the president is rubbish truly would detailed this law on foreign influence since western countries, the leadership of the european union and the united states did not like it. and she
3:05 pm
is the conductor of their interests in georgia. therefore, there's nothing surprising in the fact that she vetoed and will in every possible way impede own measures, that the governments will take the strength and independence and sovereignty of the states. she prevents everything that meets the interest of georgia and the georgian people, her main task is to ensure that everything meets the interest of the french government, european union. and of course, the united states. but the georgia president has confirmed that she has a veto that foreign agents bill that was passed by the parliament. this is salome zillow, to be, should be lee, who had repeatedly promised that she would block that legislation if it was sent to her. that she's also expressed support for the protest movement against the law office main. acosta picks up the story. it's only natural. it's a question of presence modems, when they have to home, constantly spending the case of so long as rather slowly. it's georgia and france,
3:06 pm
so whose interest is she actually survey based on these? so i go to the 2nd data today we talked about how serious is the point that was made yesterday with the yesterday's decision on the 84 people who voted in favor of the bill is a serious point for the government that has declared that we want to pursue the european post, this point shows that the government did not listen to its people to the recommendations and warnings of his friends and started to pursue its own pulse. even a robots nowadays had frequency can tell you that a european passport, georgia comes with increased security risk, domestic political divisions, economic dependence on the west end, naturally limits of cooperation with non western countries. and it's for those exact reasons that the ukranian government ultimately chose russia over the when push came to shove in 2013 box pro western forces could of the letter go. and it's
3:07 pm
the same story in georgia where the president is literally trying to drag the country into nato and the european union. my priorities are to bring georgia in europe and i came from europe to georgia for that. i'm now the president elected as been election by a society that wants more europe into georgia and georgia into the union. they say at home is where the heart is. and when it comes to salome is rubbish. really home is paris. that's where she was born and raised after her parents fled georgia in the 19th wednesdays to escape soviet communism said su, passports until 2018. when she asked the french government to renounce a french citizen, a slip so that she could run in the presidential elections in georgia. well, by that point, she gave me a lot of experience in the west and was ready to apply it to georgia. i guess.
3:08 pm

3:09 pm
as well as with french representations to international organizations such as the one made a western european union. and, oh, let's see. she was at one point, the french ambassador to georgia, the irony, all that all well fast forward to 2005. and she answers towards in politics as the minister of foreign affairs. at the invitation all the novel western lover, me file sack us the late, she became known for her pro western stands advocating for closer ties with nato, and the e u, which naturally calls tensions with the georgia and government. so was eventually fired then to quit politics altogether before she reemerge with that ben, this is where a decision is going to be taken about whether georgia becomes a candidate states a membership. um, how bad would it be for georgia if he owns that? isn't a very bad without any question mark following that. and
3:10 pm
because a, to the mean, a very deep frustration into public opinion, even deeper after the recommendations made by the commission. now, i think everybody is convinced that the answer is going to be yes. my view is to that we owe to the 27 member states to not consider anything as done before it's done, because it just didn't kind of always happen. but clearly, the frustration would be enormous. and that's what gave him a hand to russia or a huge satisfaction. because of course, and we all know that frustration is what can be best exploited by people. that venue relate to propaganda if they can use and all of that, then they would start blaming the european union suddenly for our and her western

3:16 pm
ukrainian authorities also pass to know that video evidence can be used as proof of a conscription notice. even if a person refuses to receive a document from an enlistment officer veteran will correspond that elijah magneer says, ukraine is struggling to find enough. warranty is for a military conflict that he believes it's simply cold when it is in desperate situation. and they do cannot, de mobilize the truth, that all services that are 27 months now they are going up on the old ages. they go to 25 years old now. and they, even though stopped or support a broad concept of support to old man who will be called to assess the ukraine. so they really initial to just man. so therefore, they would go to fund anyone to come and go and kill themselves in the bathroom
3:17 pm

3:18 pm
remember everything i'm supposed to be calling to calm down the situation to discuss between as as to look through the mirror, what's happened and why it's happened to minnesota to condense pro western media and politicians over the criticism of feats. so claiming the basis attacks may have provoked the recent attempt on his life keeps the newest body of them is that i thought equal both the gold as long as the onset of the wrath rake of politicians, selected media and journalists, which for years has been built on the day, the labeling of robot of feats as a criminal and the fios of a murder agitate to put in 7th and an evil that must be stopped and they will do over the thing. they can't insure the trouble fits. it 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 robert of fitz,
3:19 pm
he's fighting for his life today. let's just go some of the headlines in western media, the could have ignited that the feet. so sudden cement melita was betrayed as being a pro russian politician. just for spite of the fact that he, himself, schools, himself pro slovak, some articles even referred to his government as being or for terry. and now, according to this way back when this, the misinformation like this could have led to the near fatal attack. just to remind that the so about 5 minutes of a shop multiple times buying the silent just early this week or the business footage from the scene. we chose panic that spread through the crowd who waiting to meet the country's lead to the attack of shots speak. so several times as the last the government building departments has gotten rushing up and rushing him into a car before he was ad listed to hospital from
3:20 pm
a safe location. the suspect was immediately taken into custody and has now admitted his guilt in an exclusive interview to all the former slowed back 5 minutes. the young children will do a ski, as also 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 features 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, is that like, yeah, the majority of this makes the media us uh, going against the majority, delta dental opinion of sort like citizens. and yes that's, that's create um tension in society as
3:21 pm
we were just mentioning the, so exactly does attack it has confessed and has been transferred now to a specialized criminal court. this place them in custody and to withdraw it will take place all to use. yes. and l can filed this report from my side the silence home. and this here is a residential complex in this, the walk in town of livid say behind me is the residential complex in which the assailants tried to assassinate the walk in 5 minutes to go back to pizza. 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
3:22 pm
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 surprise, others and suggest one speaking to them at a local pub said the same and did not try to integrate 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. and in 2016, he was essentially aligned 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 sealant was also a member of a number of organizations. many with different political alignments, the idea ologies 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 little
3:23 pm
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 your credit, and that's on assuming office in 2023 you'd be got to deliver on that promise. we also understand the government is currently opposing ukraine's bid at least the potential of joining nato saying that it will stand in his way, doing everything into account. we've also encountered a difference between the big low cost here in livid sir in humble where the attack took place as well as the capitals, but the locals who spoke to them. but i still have a suggest that they were surprised not because the attack took place because it took so long, whereas the people here in levied. so the locals for the football game, nationals being oliver, have a different approach. they have more pro government, which really makes this come as a surprise for many local see because they're surprised that the st. lynch was from one of these pro governments towns. we also understand, of course, much of these rhetoric sort of debates are happening at
3:24 pm
a time when the european union is questioning its phone identity as well as it's foreign policies. many suggest the governments step robust through about fee. so as for the leading is pro russian. but if you ask local politicians, it would suggest it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with signing with one side or the other. but it has to do with signing with slovakia, building its own national interest, its own foreign policy solver and an independent from the european union. i knew which the volunteer is both a member to our to individually, to northern goals. and now we're at least seeing people have reportedly being wounded in the latest is rarely strike on a refugee camp that it's just want to bring you for change from the scene which shows the ruins of several buildings hit following the idea into folly. most of the casualties said to have been civilians who, with sheltering as a refugees agency, this is a new and refugee agency facility that thousands of people being killed in the area

3:30 pm
7 10 am we arrive to the frontier? garza is less than kilometer away. we're at the care room 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 been the key entry for humans 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 in october, more than 27000 vehicles, more than a half a 1000000 tons of supplies worse. and so the guy who has 3 been most of it went through here. this wible passage has been closed for some time following a deadly walk if attacked 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 see.
