the people of israel are watching you, you must choose between zionism and cynicism, between unity and factionalism, between responsibility and lawlessness, and between victory and disaster. if you choose to follow the pos a fanatic and lead the entire nation into an abyss, we will be forced to quit the government. we will turn to the people and form a government that will gain the trust of the people. we will form a government based on broad unity that will bring correction. unreal. victory to the war ministers plan includes the return of all hostages from gaza. he wants the enclave is to be run by an international civilian government that would include american european, arab and palestinian elements. but without the involvement of westbank authorities dance also wants to see guys that the militarized and occupied by the is really military, which he calls security control. benjamin netanyahu, his office has responded to the demands, claiming they would mean a defeat for israel. the condition said by many guns are whitewashed woods that

clearly mean ending the war. and they use the phrase rail a band to the most of the hostages, leaving him us in fact, and establishing and boasting in state. and then again, since the latest is really official to openly oppose netanyahu. earlier this week, defense minister, you have gone to choose the premier of mismanaging the war effort. gallant demanded . that netanyahu commit to tell us demand governance for the enclave. as opposed to is really occupation and resettlement. in january, the prime minister survived a no confidence felt in parliament over his failure to bring all hostages home. is really a journalist i'm here or in says the prime minister has long out stayed his welcome in office. any statements by mister gun was to his being eagerly await to see it. but what to $10.00 to have been his statement was directly disappointing because no type of political leaders shouldn't

behaved rather than do something immediately. and now to, to use right now, leaving the government and leaving the movement to replace all 4 of the media and the elections the gave listen, you know, as 3 week old the met him which is really lovable. nathaniel is both the most hated men in these rooms and majority of these rose steam please case and be spicing because both of his responsibility for october, the 7th and his insistence on evading accountability for it. however, seemed that connects being development. the still enjoys and majority, so people have at least half a dozen members softly could lead to by golems bolting from the government to

topple the government. the incumbents. hey laying their strategic partnership vladimir put in was given a warm welcome by shooting, paying as the russian president visited china for a 2 day state visit. both leaders met and vague jang for top level talks boys to further cement their partnership. here is how president clinton was met the, an on a god, a marching band and count on something to the beads of the symphony of pomp every

minute detail rehearsed to absolute perfection. we are in central badging behind me is the building of the parliament and over there in the distance, the 2 delegations, the russian and the chinese delegation here as they are about to greet the 2 leaders here. you can see the, on the god, everything is very, very solemn. you can see there's actually both men and women represented in the front rows of about to meet both a lot of my food and i'm changing, paying the you don't get to see this kind of reception every time we have the front row seats

mutual respect to the degree of reverence has never been vis expressive of the continuous strengthening of russian chinese development, comprehensive strategic interaction and mutually beneficial cooperation meet the fundamental interest of our countries and our peoples. and are in line with the needs of the world community and time. relations between china and russia are irreplaceable. their significance is hard to overestimate the which i apologize for speaking so long and not letting the interpreter do his job. i feel at home here. it's like i thought everyone here already speaks russian. the know that translated into hours of tools and a speck of signed documents, now strategic partnership and the brakes book. the pillars on which russia china

relations stand high during the visit, the delegations agreed on must go further expanding its presence on page things. kolosso agricultural market, and while the us has been ramping up its efforts to make rushes, banking sector toxic through sanctions blackmail most to n b gene discussed ways to get around that. now the 2nd leg of the journey. so lot of my putting. 6 calling from capital b g to the north eastern city of have been the now over that he met with chinese students and shed some of the behind the scenes details of his visit. my little clear you started yesterday, my friend, the president of the people's republic of china, treated me to this dish of peking duck. i'll tell you honestly that i thought about eating only one piece. well, you understand right?

but i couldn't resist because it was so delicious book simple, of course. but the biggest revelations came just off to that the enemy's your conference, which was truly an in your face event for everyone. still hoping to see russia sidelined and isolated, it is important that those who are trying to maintain a monopoly on whole issues. understanding that a multi point a world is emerging before our eyes do everything that depends on them in this case. so that this process is natural, peaceful, conflict free and that the opinions of all participants in the international process is taken into full account. now, as for these functions, it's also a convenient pretext to eliminate competition for the us itself. according to the russian president assigned to regression of initially some of the sections of course looked like sanctions on the outside. but to a certain extent,

such elements of economic welfare are not being used for the 1st time. and by the way, politics, the nature of the relationship between russia and china, the situation in ukraine, i assure you it has nothing to do with this. these are just elements of unfair competition. it was also the 1st time vladimir putin spoke about russia's new advance in the heart of region in east and ukraine, and that it's not actually about taking the seats you'll kind of, well, please for now in the ukraine is showing residential areas of russian border territories including belgrade, civilians are dying. it's obvious that firing right into the center of the city. if this continues, we will be forced to create a security zone. that's what we're doing. as for the city of car cost today, we have no plans of taking it. and once again, put this trust, both most goes readiness for peace talks and the futility of any such effort that

does not account for russian interests. we analyze everything. of course, we are following what is happening around the announced meeting in switzerland. we are not going to switzerland, but we never refuse negotiations. unlike ukraine, they are the ones who withdrew from the negotiation process. they are the ones who said they were going to inflict a strategic defeat on. they declared that they were going to fight to the end, in fact, not to the end, but to the last ukranian. it was president supporters, 1st 4 and visits since his latest and new duration. and on this guy celebration of deep friendship between russia and china. and the failure of us sled attempts, a geo political segregation, and while haters in the west, i surely still gonna aid the define display in the east, sadly speaks for itself. nelson, long valley club, expert advice chairman of the shanghai center for rim pack and international

studies, says the russian chinese partnership or instability and promotes a multi polar world. this is a certain date and by far off a very successful the trip of a russian president be to try. and what we can see is that the 2 countries are now not only comprehensive, strategic pop those. but it's quite clear that both lexia and china have shared vision about the way falls when it comes to global development to all world development. because both china and russia are very much against the hedge, a monic control or attempt to control the world by the us. and that both countries are not happy with the way the world has being viewed. it's fair right over the last decade also in particular. so and also both countries do

believe that the future of the low she'll be multi paula and respecting the interest of, or countries around the world. a big and small judging by what is going on around the world. i think the unity of china and russia where ways the 2 countries coming together, it will definitely crate a force to promote peace and stability and hopefully prosperity. because the rest of the, well, the ukrainian drone strike on russia's cars on region has killed one civilian and left to 16. more injured. local governor says kids attacking a bus full of people traveling to help harvest strawberries. all of the survivors have received emergency medical assistance, but that comes as you create in force has faced an uphill battle throughout the week. russian troops have taken control of 13 settlements in the heart of region

and notified cubes, limited to counter offensive gains and this upper rose or region. here's our don bass bass correspondence to sweeney with more details the earlier this week and a major policy ukraine. russian forces took control of the symbolic, the impulsive vintage of, of both in the, in the zip code. what was your region intensifying? took place here. and what was one of you cranes, only games? it's much warranty, but filed counter offensive. boston ly, 75 kilometers northeast of municipal, the regional capital. it was here that next token, military hardware, military vehicles, with damaged or destroyed. the so called game changes is up on the wanted western supposedly invincible equipment burns. and in terms of its technical and technical characteristics, how much of it often even fall short compared to some models of soviet made weaponry? not to the army is not one display in the russian capital. drawing huge crowds to pump the polk where they can see military vehicles,

including the sole cold invincible abrams tank. bmo, russia makes you to volunteer, is in the hawk of region crossing through defensive lines like thought to, in fact, the bbc reported last week that those defensive lines simply didn't exist with reports of russian troops advancing through online to areas and ukraine, simply giving up with i'm following a single shot is let to save you as questions being honest with the abby a previously set to be heavily fortified. many of the mounting offices as to where that money has gone. i mean the allegations of corruption. there was no 1st line of defense we side the russians just walked in. they just walked in without any mind fields. either, it was an act of negligence or corruption. it wasn't a failure, it was a betrayal. at the time, the guy, harold is impulse, and success is on the battlefield. that you, craig and stuff with heavy losses. and now it seems as well as comp and nothing with russia really taking control this, the quote, the carrier, despite deploying such

a norm as forces the enemy did not manage to reach even the 1st line of our defenses. well, there are still 2 more lines beyond that. the last 166000 killed and wounded over 800 tanks and nearly 2400 are merged fighting vehicles. so yes, another 5 due on the bottle fail, despite the constant flow of ohms of weapons to key have as nice home re continues to. but this is these really don't yet so public for all to this week. us secretary of state and they blanket and travel to, to key of expressing washington's unwavering support for ukraine as the situation on the front worsens. let's take a look at how the visit went. the . the

thank you so much. thanks for coming to your green. you're thinking that you came. thank you for this. you know, also i wanted to thank you from all my teams things so much for this package. thanks to congress. thanks prison. by the way, i think, for part my positive support because wear samples for, for these 2 americans to american people. the, your soldiers, your citizens, particularly the northeast and parties, are suffering tremendous. but they need to know the united states is with you.

the it's earlier we spoke to scott ritter, a former us marine corps intelligence officer. he says the situation in ukraine is a strategic failure for the west discipline to a domestic political audience here in the united states. and to some degree, a political audience in europe. look, is tori blinking? what is to be honest about what's happening in ukraine right now? it's a strategic defeat for the united states, for nato, for europe, for the collective west. this is a disaster of the collective west under american leadership, has poured hundreds of billions of dollars into propping up the zalinski government in a failed effort to inflict a strategic defeat upon russia. that's not my words as the goal support by the

secretary of defense, lloyd austin, a back in 2022. and then this they have failed. if you know, rush it and not only is cheap, you know, territorial success liberating a new territories and the don't boscoe zones up or asia securing crimea. but russia has mobilized it's of industrial potential from military perspective. you cranking out the defense industry on a scope and scale that can't be matched by the west. and this puts the list of the strategic disadvantages they try to cope with the consequences of what is a pending, complete, and total worst victory on the battlefield crate. the gun man suspected of shooting slovak prime minister robert feet, so has reportedly pleaded guilty and courts. the assailant strongly opposed the

prime minister as policies, particularly his plans to stop arm supplies, to crane. that's according to the countries interior minister, or should i still on the impulse, but at each just i can confirm the reasons why this is classified as politically motivated, pre mediated murder. we're not pointing fingers on anybody. i presented to you with the facts. and this was a summary of a stipends made by they say it was the he's unhappy with the situation and he disagrees with the government. it doesn't agree with stuff in assistance to ukraine . 2 weeks before the assassination attempt, the suspected gunmen at your eisen tula, was spotted at a protest in western slovakia. the rally and support of the crime saw a small group of people carrying e u flags and condemning the country's ruling party. let's take a look at some more background on the suspect, the 71 year old a your ice until a is a fierce a critic of the subject time industries ukraine policies, members of faith. those government confirms that they took part in numerous pro

western rallies and demand of the prime minister renew. slovak arm supplies to cab . before shooting the leader, the country's defense minister says the shooting was not coincidental. this is what i gave you all the biggest tragedy in the past i was, is that we've discovered that the disagreement with a different political opinion, disagreement, or conflict of opinions have turned into pre meditated mode at what has to happen for a person who originally presented themselves presented his opinions as pacifists to become an extremist. take a gun and chemistry want to kill someone else. i believe that the emotions of the last months was so high as the back you. this was no coincidence. problem pizza is not so new politician. he's been named politics since 1992. that's 32 years. if he didn't have the same opinion with selected media, then the criticism float. and if you, despite public criticism still won the elections, then it breaks. the question is, how can we criticize him if he still won the vote on somebody floating on suitcase

rubber feet? so there's a deputy says the state later remembers incident clearly and that the statements statements. life is no longer at risk. the footage from the scene shows a panic and the chaos spread through the crowd, waiting to meet the country's leader, the salem shot prime minister feats of 5 times as he left the government building. his guards rushed the pizza into a car before he was airlifted to a hospital from a safe location, suspect was immediately taken into custody. are to correspond to us and i can brings us more details. smoking security forces have removed a boat from this tree that was lodged as a result of an attack and assassination attempt on the lease of walk in 5 minutes. the rule that fits so immediately behind it is the cultural center in which the prime minister walked out of moments before the attack took place. the silence was a 71 year old male speaking to the locals. they suggest the sentiment that the

silence had towards the prime minister or the government is not necessarily something that is shared throughout the country. you silence was in one form or another aligned with a number of conflicting ideologies. back in 2016, many suggest his values more traditional that they were aligned with slovakian interests. some would even described them as pro russian, whereas in 2022 was inner circle suggests his views changed, supported pro ukrainian, pro western and pro liberal values a drastic shift that resulted in the assassination attempt of to walk in prime minister. all that fits up, of course, 1st of all, it's a tragedy when you hear a politician is being attacked. and of course, we know that some of our carries a country where there's a big polarization. there's parts of the country which is strongly opposed to 5 minutes or feed. so and then there's a large part which is a fan of feats. so. so of course, it's a dangerous situation and it's also,

it's always a sets to hear that people tend to violence to express their opinion. and there's just, yeah, that's misfortune. maybe the gentleman was a little bit sick and a half to, but that's not the way to handle things. in my opinion. there are a number of policies that we can list policies that the assailant was opposed for the most part. but the one thing that does remain constant is the government's position to ukraine, as well as ukraine's potential bid to join nato. this is something the government oppose us. these policies have been in place for a while. many would suggest there's a division within society. but then again, officials throughout the country have stated, the prime minister has been elected into power time and time again, his policies have been necessarily changed. so the big question here is, where is this pressure coming from? and the pressure for the most part is of course, coming from brussels. it's coming from the united states. the walkie is a member of the european union as a member of the nato alliance. and this, among many other things, is one of the fundamental reasons as to why the sealants could have potentially

carried, he'll be attacked. one final thing to mention is the soul of auctions, government and its intention to establish a foreign policy that is sovereign and independent from that of the european union and nato. this is a fundamental reasoning behind the government's position, the opposition as well as the motivation behind the servants motives. but more importantly comes at a time when your itself is questioning its own existence, its identity as well as its foreign policy and about europe is looking to establish that identity. it makes sense that slovakia, serbia hungry many countries within the european continent are essentially trying to establish the very same thing. yes, and it can archie in honda of a slovak, you are following almost a week of unrest in new caledonia, paris declared a state of emergency and it's overseas territory. that's as pro independence demonstrators blocks. the territory is the key roads. here's a breakdown of what prompted riots across the island.

the of the 3 words in my circular awesome speed. it is imperative, the republican or to be restored. the just saw, we feel oppressed, we are angry. everything is happening over a bit. and we a one dream,

we need to kind of people being heard less casual moment. i realize that the french have never thought about us. they talk about sharing and balance. but at the same of being the case, let's go plot, but we can't go on like this. we won't get anywhere with threats, violence or ours. a discussion that works for everyone is needed so that we can find sincerity, serenity and above all, peace. the shortage to those who started the protests a few days ago are sending a signal to parliament. the government entered the president of france. they categorically impose the draft constitutional law to unilaterally expand to the voter lists of new caledonia. however, both parliament and the government,

those have persisted in their desire to advance this constitutional law. and when parliament plays with fire, it is not the one that gets burned, but the residence of new caledonia. and this is exactly what has been happening here. so to see alright, just stay with us up next on our t international, our exclusive interview with former slovakia and prime minister. you on charge of course the the the. so i understand that you

served term as prime minister in stock. you joined 1991 in 1992? yes. can you describe a little bit of it was what the implications have been since then. up until now? big changes. big changes because in the time you had adjust uh turning in that time check with somebody. yeah, uh and, and the neighboring countries from 40 is socialism to a democratic society. market economy, a free press, big changes. so we understand that the developments over the past few days have been a month from on the biggest to us here. what can you personally say about all that good stuff i know beneficial but actually.
