including our sanctions. resumes on aircraft for used by the running government. ultimately is the run and government that is responsible for this isn't to fly a 45 year old helicopter in what was described as poor weather conditions. not any other actor. the american officials took the opportunity to lash out at the la right in president and his politics. that's as many countries are expressing their support over the death of the leader. remembering him as a strong politician and individual is less than including settled bricks, member india, archie correspondent, runjun sharma has more. can you as an ounce to deal states morning of the 21st of may, which is to be tomorrow. respect to be condolences to living in the, the shape of the, of the president. he's for maintenance stuff and 7, all those who were on board the shuffle that crashed on sunday. but you really need other advice on for the now what you guys doing is all the government official

for example, or to send each to us gone this dawn. but india is not the only country that in fact has expressed shock like india, other countries also. so you vaughn is a pop now and many have express that can do is flip that every day i convey to my brother, mohammed's motor, back and to they said prima lead to i. it's on the harmony and it condolences on all people. the deep feeling of all people, so the devotee with a brave and heroic people over the run with a family of all friends out brought the president a brain. but i, you see who deposits, it's on the ministry, and department is the p show and side and the reports of the past, seeing all these excellent sea prison drive you see of these i make republic, i'll be around as well as my colleague, the minister of do i have the minister of foreign affairs of these lumnick republic

earlier we spoke to veteran surround diplomat and former ambassador to turkey, an adult avalon. he says the us bears responsibility, not only for the helicopter crash, but also for what he calls it's unfair and illegal sanctions policy in the region are definitely the us. that's just the responsibility. not the only for the crash and one way or another office helicopter can see it. and then present this for administer. the americans better responsibility for the less of millions of the i could show the and the city and children and celia celia and show the level of these children killed by sank shows by the series of uninstall. couple lines that has to be labeled by calling power and the other senior leaders of the medic need to ship the station, i guess the back which has proven to be false. and then later sanctions now sort of

all the settings of 10 years ago, syria, the syrians in gaza and elsewhere, nevin and the killing millions of innocent people throughout the region. so to better serve the spot. so let's get for that. could i, is it probably not going to add the. busy to the lack of the. busy by the, the americans as sponsors of total of sanctions, of illegal factions, unilateral sanctions, the physically think people hundreds of thousands of feet, uh, monthly to in the region a due to, to on fast and illegal infections, to actually forced by the americans and any nation, any power any part to the that or causes the policy is that imperialist policies and. busy assets to come and control the whole world.

as the funeral procession for the rain in president continues, you can see those live images behind me right now. do stay with our to international for continuing coverage. we'll keep you updated on all the latest developments on air and online. the, the russian officials have lashed out of the us for double sanders with washington defending israel after the i. c. c. prosecutor filed for arrest warrants for top is really officials a year ago, the us supported an arrest warrant against the russian president. this is another example of double standards and a parade of american democracy. the us authorities denied the legitimacy of the i. c. c and intimidate the structure. we sanctions when it comes to the interest of washington itself and its allies. however, they shamelessly use this pseudo legal tool against those whom they consider enemies. washington statements in connection with the i. c. c's. expiration.

suggest that is really leadership resembled the reaction of a scorpion stung by itself or a spider entangled in its own. but the rushing criticism comes in response to emotional reactions. in the united states, the state department spokesperson rejected the icpc appeal, claiming it has no jurisdiction over this matter. how speaker mike johnson went even further saying the us may propose sanctions against the international criminal court. and presidential bite on also chipped into defend israel, claiming what's happening and gaza is not genocide. reject the i c. she's application arrest warranty against the prison wants to all do or can't do insure civilian protection. but let me be clear, concert allegations against israel made by the national court of justice. what's happening is not genocide or reject. earlier, the international criminal courts. chief prosecutor requested an arrest warrant for these really prime minister alongside the country's defense minister. they stand

accused of war crimes and gaza. i see prosecutor trim con, also wants to see the leadership of from us in the, the, to have reasonable grounds to believe the 3 senior leaders of how a mass fact criminal responsibility for the following. international crimes. committed on the territory of these rail. i'm the state of palestine from at least the 7th of october 2023. i can also confirm that i have reasonable grounds to believe that he's really prime minister benjamin netanyahu to administer of defense . you, i've got back criminal responsibility for the following international crimes committed on the territory of the state of palestine from at least the 8th of october 2023. this calm as a surprise reports about the eyes this season tension is happens circulating since

last month, but it did come as a blue beloved about these really political establishments has gone wild, slamming the international criminal court. gordon is the same as the prime minister of israel. i reject with disgust the hague, prosecute as comparison between democratic israel and the mass murderers of him. awesome. and this is a complete distortion of reality. this is exactly what the new anti semitism looks like. it is moved from the campuses in the west to the colt in the hague. what a shame to be. i say see, became a rock. there was a hard place as well. and it's on yeah, he's on the tremendous pressure on the home front. he risk seeing his rolling call lucian crumbled as allies threatening to rebel over his handling of the war and gaza. and he's rapidly losing public support to has regular protests against his leadership. mountains across the country, unlike is really officials, many citizens see a possible arrest international domestic as

a fair faith for the prime minister who fails to protect as really is on october 7th. and has since failed to bring all the hostages home. nearly 8 months on. i think groups of not and should not stop with maybe they all have to be able to do all the government is freely knows the acumen, people in palestine and so with no reason they all have to go to choose an old all of them one by one, i think he said has a country, i think he's just trying to keep it safe to keep himself out of trouble. and meanwhile, is living everything. yeah. full of us. but who says natania, who actually cares what is riley's want? he's clearly more worried about securing support from washington for washington and the international criminal court isn't altogether credible enough, especially when it investigates ace american forces committed war crimes and of ghana stone. or when it considers an arrest warrant against the leadership of

washington's ally over war crimes and crimes against humanity and gaza. which ones? what am i to pull to is in the eyes of the seas spotlight, the court suddenly becomes fair and upright for the americans. so i figure justified it, of course, it is not recognized international by us either, but i think it makes a very strong point for us supports all international efforts to examine atrocities in ukraine, including the investigation by the i c. c, and the reporting by the un commission of inquiry on ukraine. the united states supports a range of international investigations and the rest of the atrocities in ukraine, including the one conducted by the i see, i see. but we did not weigh in on each decision development as part of those investigations as well, has made it clear the eyes. this is warren's approved by a panel of judges, or in fact, any war and will not stop the prime minister. and he's government's war on guys, on the news that's made. world headlines will hardly make changes on the ground.

but it's such a nice house, no pressure on these really is. and the american allies to all become increasingly isolated as the global majority relas full palestine. where are you from ocean ah, how t reporting from jerusalem? palestinian national initiative party leader mustafah bar duty says washington, the support of israel is a clear double standard. and i hope that dakota does not the sky owe you and does not show a new color miss on the american pressure, which is absolutely hypocritical. but on one side, there will come the court decisions against pressure and now the other condemned and the code for it showing these the decisions about the 0 that shows how much they and i to states as for the total and complete the standard. because the american lead, that is thing to have the what it should look, i've gotten. so there was and they think that the court of justice, the own,

the court of justice in the world is very united states senate congress, which is, by the way and now some of its members out of sorts of things to take a punitive acts against the national court of justice. something unbelievable. uh they don't believe in international lawyers are united states does not believe in international. it's below it communities in the law of the jungle and dental spar. whoever has the power can do it. they're like the estrella and, and the new zealand governments announced on tuesday. they're sending planes to evacuate their nationals from crisis stricken new caledonia. now this comes as a pro independence protesters continue to push back against fresh forces by maintaining roadblocks on the archipelago. paris sent over 1000 and security forces to reclaim the road from the airport to the capitol of new may. a state of emergency was declared in the region after the death toll from cautious rose to 6. the unrest broke out of a paris. his intention is to enforce

a new law that would give tens of thousands of non indigenous presidents voting rights, protest or say they won't back down until the text of the law is withdrawn. on last, we won't give up until they withdraw the text they're about to vote on their no, we won't give up. even if we have to die for it will stay here on the road blocks. who's going to be able to talk about being out of breath and all that? we don't have it brand new. we're waiting for this text to be withdrawing because it means the elimination of the connected people were already in the minority if they get their techs through congress invest, sorry, we're screwed. that's what they don't understand over the, we're already a minority is on them. you know the credit and later bought him as a landscape presidential term has. busy officially expired elections for the country's top job were supposed to take place in march, but were postponed by marshal long former russian president. dimitri method of said the delays are indicative of a failed state. all these manipulations with laws mean only one thing. the death of

the file states of ukraine. it's transformation into a classic filed state to use american vocabulary. the west support as a landscape decision not to hold elections precisely because it is afraid of the shameful full of his criminal regime. the legs can post marshal law over ukraine in february of 2022 and has pro long that repeatedly. since then, the status prohibits any elections including the presidential race. several extensions of the martial law have pushed zalinski is time and office, possibly, constitutionally mandated, 5 years ukrainian leader has refused to hold elections this year. we've heard from international economist martin armstrong, who says zalinski is pushing back the vote because his chances of victory are swim is suspended the elections as long as the work goes on. so as long as or goes on and he remains present, that seems to be a conflict of interest internally. a lot of people in ukraine are beginning to realize that when he killed a deal for peace at the request of bars,

johnson why. ringback ukrainian people have no right to, to negotiate your, on their own behalf. so his election, you know, i think is a fraud and he's deliberately postponing it because i think if he went to election you would find that he lost. so if you just look at what he ran on when he stood for election, it was for peace. i wrote comments even from russia, thought the deal. maybe this would be a good idea. and then he turned completely the opposite direction. there people, they won him out and i think it is this globalization is a show of really have desperate things if you could have become a. and i mean ukraine had had mast one of the biggest are amazing in europe,

and they did not do any good. uh so i think it's your last desperate eh, measure because, you know, ukraine just cannot possibly win this war if you want to know more about what the future holds for is lot of her as a lensky and his powers and the presidential chair go to our website, our com to read more about this story and so much more the russian sen alexi push comp has claimed that the slovak prime minister robert feed, so shoot, or wasn't acting alone. and that the gun in his hand was guided by ultra liberal european media and the politicians, the radical liberal slovak, centralized, fixated on supporting ukraine and heating fits so fired 5 shots that robert fits. so he was the one pulling the trigger, but the gun was put in his hand, but he called for a liberal european media and politicians who nurtured the ideology of hatred and

extreme intolerance in europe and turned it into a field of war against the new heretic. who disagree with the dogmas of ultra liberalism and atlantis is a 71 year old, a year eyes and 2 shots, a slovak prime minister, 5 times on may 15th, the countries deputy prime minister confirmed states. his life was no longer in danger. after he underwent a 5 hour surgery, so lock is interior minister also a sort of the gunman was angry to buy the government's policies, especially the choice to stop arming ukraine and the former justice minister. slovakia points the finger at the source and the ition and for an n g o for the assassination attempts, expelled media. there was sponsored by soros foundation and all the ngos from the public space and the polarization of slovak society will. and within a week, veteran war correspondent elijah magneer says, the russian sen suggestion that ultra liberal european media and politicians are

responsible for the attempted assassination of the slovak later has some truth to it. and i really started to agree with him just because the and the most of the, i guess, try it doesn't come from last week or 2 weeks ago. oh, when ever it has started. after the february 2022, when the russia was considered in terms of european pro, which no n, n b. and this situation has changed with the intention of the us to designate dresser as the enemy and to push you to a line it said with the united states. now having done that, there is a need of justification to convince the european population and for that russian needs to be demonized. and this is what the americans have done. this is what mainstream media is very active. it seems the february 2022 and still

active and due today and doing exactly the same thing that has been the subject, dodge in the heart of pure of node stream do everybody goes and neither did want to investigate and any up against function, how to justify north korea has slammed the us for conducting nuclear tests that threaten global stability and could lead it to greater escalations. north korea will not tolerate the creation of a strategic and balance and security vacuum in the coming peninsula, but wholesome and defended security rights. an interest for powerful to toned action against the evolving new class right from the us. there's only one country that's ever used. the atomic bombs that with united states that use nuclear weapons on her ocean and nagasaki. the people of her rose, whom i spoke up in the aftermath of the recent provocative drills by the united states. on behalf of the atomic bomb, to the city of hiroshima,

i vehemently protest and demand that all future nuclear tests be canceled. i strongly urge the united states to reflect deeply on the risk reality use of what a single atomic bomb did to hiroshima and the tragic experiences of the survivors. but the cry, so critical nuclear tests were done in nevada. here's how the u. s. national nuclear security agency describes them on the evening of may 14th the us department of energy's national nuclear security administration, successfully executed a sub critical experiment and then as a relies on some critical experiments to collect valuable information, to support the safety, security, reliability, and effectiveness of america's nuclear warheads, without the use of nuclear explosive testing, the nuclear security enterprise will use the results of this experiment to improve on modeling and simulation capability. positive assigns based stockpile stewardship

program that n n s a has like for over 30 years. in 1992, the united states declared a moratorium on full on nuclear tests with explosions. however, tests like the recent one, the provocative some critical nuclear tasks that want nuclear prowess and demonstrate the ability to destroy millions of lives have continued. the usa has never signed the nuclear test ban treaty, and it claims that these recent stomach critical tasks are in full compliance with all international law. however, the context of the recent tasks makes them a little bit more alarming. let's recall how recently us senator lindsey graham defended the use of atomic bombs against erosion and nagasaki on the floor of the us congress. would you have supported dropping the atomic bombs on hiroshima and nagasaki, general brown in world war 2? i think well the, the center i think it is based on the situation where the well and we know,

i mean is half and we know i'm not asking that they did it. do you think that was disproportionate? it was uh, it was there definitely. uh well, what do you use, what do you live in on? so i do think that was the right decision for america to drop 2 atomic bombs on the japanese cities in question. well, i'll tell you to stop the war war. japanese officials were horrified by the rhetoric of lindsey graham to say the least and a. com at a time when western leaders say that threatening to bring nuclear weapons into the ukraine conflict is simply fair game. just rank listener, responsible for the leader of a major new nuclear armed power to be saber rattling the way that he is with respect to the territories for, for nuclear weapons. and we're honestly, we monitor this and have continued to wire through this very closely. i can tell you, we've seen nothing, even despite the reckless rhetoric that would cause us to change our strategic

deterrence last year. and lastly, if, if mr. brewton and russian officials are worried about their troops and ukraine getting hit with weapons from other countries. then the easiest thing to do is just take your troops and leap. nobody was a nuclear war. that's a reality that has haunted the planet for decades. so with the international tensions rising in a number of theaters right now, you would think it's just common sense that you shouldn't be flaunting your nuclear arsenal at this moment. however, when met with criticism us media and us leaders avenue off to use room bottle, it's all rushes fault. however, russia has not engaged in the type of provocative drills we just saw in nevada. caleb bobbin archie, new york. jo altman and a host of the conservative daily podcasts as western leaders deliberately nurtured violence as a tool.
