time, but again, it's not, we don't want to watch it because it might just change the way inside the russian. what shape arrives in the head by the western media claims washington's keeping its telescope firmly focused on the caribbean. but moscow once again gets assurances that the move poses no threat to anyone. ruble along with the chinese, you on top of the trading markets in russia as functions see the dollar and euro cut out the door. and that's according to the russian central bank. disturbing images from guys off with 38 people that they killed and these released flights of the past 24 hours. this for local says that there isn't enough is enough at this point and demand an end to the launch it enough. we are exhausted every day

we are forced to relocate to a different area. our young children are deprived of food and water. we have nothing and now is not the i didn't see any and the streets ethic has dropped the south american countries send it to prove controversial economic reforms pushed by the president. the while you're watching arching to the option of reaching you from the russian capital. i, a michael quail with the updates is now our top story this our to the caribbean, where a naval detachment of roches northern fleet is dumped in a port in cuba after conducting military drills in the atlantic. it's the 1st time the russians forget to armed with hypotonic, muscles has entered the caribbean and the in the atlantic, russia new via submarine to find in

a coordinated computer simulation supplied pockets 600 kilometers away. the russian naval visit is providing plenty of for the, for the media, which is claiming it's not just them, but washington to keeping a close eye on the for, and visit as you've rolled into the caribbean. and that's as the russian foreign ministry has stressed. it has news of aggressive plans against the nato, while the crime lanes books pass and also reassured that a visit poses no threat to a new state. really and truly military exercises are normal practice groups taking place in various parts of the world. this is also a normal practice, especially for such a large married time power as russia making such an eval visits is also a common practice. so we don't see any reason to worry in this case, but let's get some expert analysis on all of this now and speak to for my pentagon, senior security policy analyst mike model of michael is good to have your join me

right now. so the media. yeah, thank you. so the media escaping the arrivals of the ross from sleeping cuba is getting washington all walked up about how close to the truth is that and why should i be able to show as well? uh, i don't think they're getting washington all worked up there. they're watching the, the, uh, the, the ships in the, in the area and they're monitoring them. the, i think the pentagon is trying to, openly display a low key approach to all of this. and i think that the, some of the q and a at the pentagon yesterday, they, that there, there was an emphasis that doesn't mean, however, they don't, they're not watching the movement of the ships there. they were certainly monitoring the maneuvers that they were doing further out and see it in missile tests because that gives us some information as to procedures and have

a positive conduct their operations. uh, so it's all a monitoring exercise and, and it's, it's, uh but, but, um, but it's from the russian point of view. it does show a, a global power projection that it's capable of undertaking. and i think it's in response more to the fact that united states has been having its own more ships and, and its own the military in and out of the black sea area for years. and it's fly strategic bombers, very, very close to the, to the russian federation, borders and then pills off just to get reaction. so this is what's good for the goose is good for the gander. so we're here, here we go. and the interesting thing about what's, what's the cause of the nuclear submarines is equipped with it,

as well as well as the admiral guards, gorge cost. a frigate there are armed with is your con, uses. these are hypersonic missiles, 9 times the speed of, well, that's what they, they're quick lately, they're capable of undertaking. the fact is that these missiles, absolutely can this, can a n run any anti missile defense system, the united states make that. so you can see why the, the press might be perplexed about all of this and, and trying to like their hair on fire and put it out with a frying pan. but at the same time, it does give some indication to, to policy makers here that the us defense system is, is lacks. and all of our, most of our defense system, 7 oriented more towards the northern part,

not from the northern part of the country, not from the south. so this, this might be uh, a rid of waiting for a policy makers to and defense policy makers to consider. and, but i don't, i don't, i think they want to keep down the, any hysteria at this time. me. now vessel comes after the russian president flies the symmetrical response to nato's. permission to full key up to strike deeper into russian territories. now what do you make of the timing? all those crews visit, especially when you're talking of relation to escalation of tensions to well, i think it's a demonstration that boss scouts who can show power projection and, and, and with its full k, a ray of capabilities, particularly in the hypersonic region, which the united states has no defense for i think that it's basically cited in the message if you, if you're going to, if you want to play hardball, we can to,

it shows that the, that, that it's, it's basically telling the united states, you're reaching our red line limits. and, and you're approaching them very, very quickly with your, with your efforts and in ukraine by allowing the ukrainians to use western and us weapons to fired deep into russia. and i think that it, i think rushes sending a very serious message that they can arm its own uh friends as they do the same thing. so again, its, uh what's, what's it, what, what but one side does the other side reciprocate or why not? the russian foreign minister match is cuban, con the pond on wednesday with both condemning the west aggressive stands. now, how would you assess the relation to strategic relations between cuba and russia?

well, those relationships have been going on for many, many years. and in the past, uh, yeah, you would, it goes away back to the cuban missile crisis during the soviet era. there were bases there. and in fact, uh uh, then soviet union was setting up a missile sites that the nearly brought the world to a new killer uh, a war. and so the relationship has been the long and its been steadfast. i would add that i must go his best purposely is retained itself since the fall of the soviet union, more as a regional power stayed within its own area of its own severe influence. but now, with the threats from the united states continuously banging up against the russian federation by expanding nato to 2 countries that are right up against the federation. it's, it's really

a time now for most of the show them that to can play the same game. and once again, reinforce it in the eyes of its own people. that it too is a global power and that is projecting that power and can. and, and alex also is equipped with a capabilities that they can actually defeat us systems against any, any attacks. should there be an attack on the russian federation? so this, the, the, the, the russian military today is, is it that strongest point i think, than we've ever seen. and it, while us capabilities are diminishing and, and the us has no defense against these hypersonic missiles and, and, and in the cruise missiles that they have on board in this, in this

a group before vessels include the caliber cruise missile and the, and the onyx and to ship, most of these are very capable systems. we have to leave you here. now have mike motto for former pentagon senior, a security policy on the list. and thank you so much for your insight here. well, thanks for having me. but while nato, his chief, has escalated the rectory by claiming the alliance as members need to stop putting the money is where the amounts are at, make firm commitments in bolstering ukraine's defense is hey, fred turned is into not voluntarily comfortable options. but nate, the commitments, of course, it will become more robust, it will become a more reliable and especially combined with a commitment of spending at least $40000000000.00 euros per year. this will ensure that we have a more long term, more predictable support for ukraine. set off around us from the anti war group of

a international action center. i believe the washington's will monitoring policies are making, being used for the us on the industry, but are costing europe healey. so it is a gun to the head of every member of the e. u. every nato member and its intended to be that it is a threat that they have to pay and pay to us farms industry. it confirms once again, this is a war, it's for profit. that's why us fights towards a war for markets, for control of markets. it's a war to, to actually tie the you benefit in publishers. so people tighter and closer to the less if it works, to their disadvantage. actually that's to the advantage of us industries and the corporate giants. so are they imposing it?

absolutely, and it's, it's all supposed to be through general corvalle, who is the us army, general nato. is always a us commanded us dominated alliance that has always worked for the benefit of the us and captured other countries, dragging them in to continue the conflict and they pay, they pay in losing pensions and health care and all the deterioration of so much as we also do here in the us moving away now that the moscow exchange has suspended trading in dollars in euro is after washington put sanctions on roches may in financial bois, russia, central bank has said those trades good, continue on the over the counter markets and the hold on the moscow exchange will not affect your regular citizens and companies, the transactions with the us dollar and the euro will continue to be made on the over the counter markets. companies and citizens can continue to buy and sell us

dollars and euro's through russian banks. all funds and us dollars in euro's, in the accounts and deposits of citizens and companies remain safe. the deposits and accounts of citizens and organizations in us dollars in euro's remain in the same mode of disbursement of funds established by the bank of russia. said he, what's happened is the most guys stock exchange, which would be, that's a way from the u. k. it would be all equivalent of the london stock exchange. it has set and current sees that you are allowed to buy stocks and she has an investment companies like gas problem, new coil ross. and if any company is listed that, and what's happening now is you're not able to directly buy those using dollars in your rise, but you can use other currencies be that ruble, chinese women be, however you bought at the point of all over the account. so what that basically means is that any russian bank can still swap you

a dollars in your eyes for variables and vice versa. you can hold dollars in your best and bank account as well as variables. so the average consumer isn't really affected by it. they're just going to have to combat the funds into a car and say that the most case stock exchange will now except why. but because it said that, i mean in, in the statement said that the average or every day russian wouldn't be affects to . so every single russian bank that does accept dollars is still doing sites. the central bank has not restricted that whatsoever. and indeed we looked at the sort of the, the, the resilience of the banks. and you know, when, when use like this happens around about, you can see some fluctuation in the price of the country's main currency being there by some people, we didn't really see it affect it. so we still some of the small bangs adjust the price, but every major buying beat up the sped bang crush as largest bang for any of the big bugs in a must, a way to keep the right i was looking at the right this morning. it's around it's $0.09 to the, to the rouble on a dollar value time, which is about the same as it's been all the way through. and indeed,

we've seen some fluctuation between ruble and data since you and i have been actually here mostly a couple of years. i'm sure you've seen it yourself, but it always seems through a couple of bucks to where it should be, which is around the month listing right now. i don't think it is a tumor, right? because we're seeing a massive label movement towards the dollar rise ation. but if we take care of some needs from saudi arabia, i believe this week, the saudi, they've, they have a 50, a treaty where they exclusively have to trade that way of as, as in us dollars. now we know that not going to renew that treaty because they've already agreed with the chinese that they will buy, the chinese can buy um, oil from them in chinese women be so i think really the process that is happening now is by the us putting the sanctions that only just accelerates in their demise of, of, and etc. i think the don't arise ation. in fact, i think we put a slip from president to, to move actually outlines his opinion on this. give us do it. so what's today's american authorities are breaking their tools of success? the dollar is one of the few instruments of the united states greatness with their own hands. they are pushing the withdrawal of participants in global economic

activities away from the dollar. this is happening because they've had reduction in the size of the american economy and the actions on accelerating this process in a way. and so as we can see from that in our, out of, in present pages making that point very clear. there's also another, another sort of ad snippet of news that he mentioned is about the well binding, which is not really a good friend of ross is, has, has taste. it says, a cdp full cost. again, that was 1.3 percent growth for russia. it's now that outside between 2.3 to 2.9 percent. so really these, these seconds is a completely, an effective not rush. i said it is able to insure stability and its markets and is now considering to retaliate. we measures a number of chinese entities have also been added to the new us section list. the chinese foreign ministry has condemned washington's move, calling they imposed restrictions, the legal a football team would use all china never accepts any illegal unilateral sanctions

. the normal economic and trade cooperation between china and russia is not subject to any 3rd party, sabotage or interference. all the impact of a new assumptions had been mitigated by moscow's move away from the dollar and euro in trading. that's according to the russian central bank. over the past 2 years, the role of the us still and euro in the russian market has consistently decline. this is the results of the redirection of trade flows to the east and the change in the currency of sacraments to roubles you on and of the currencies of friendly countries. the share of you on a most scary exchange trading in may was 54 percent. the u on has already become the main currency in exchange trading the one rouble exchange rate. we'll set the trajectory for all the currency passed and will become a guideline for market participants. we have to wait and see what changes to all the boxes. we will decide, uh oh,

they are not usually false to make up their minds. yeah, somebody will need some time. but if you on space and will be trained to to russian forks market, it will be a beast of allies. in fact, the cobalt, local, foreign exchange rate and for external communications. and yes, what, any single dollar, what happens through foreign exchange and on the most close focus? june 21 you are as being sofa and ease and will be the major. 1 say externally without a wall full of majority or fashion and thanks for those and informed us and that we will begin to play more and more important role for. busy capital flows so much that for example, now after the decision of the chinese down to boxes, the one will also be moved from uh, most of the stock exchange. and no, i do not mean that to you on who become less important for the all degree. you can for the external communication across from the trade you meetings,

uh full time type. no, but i don't see all the options that you are saying to me just for scott on 6 of the major uh, external breach. without a wall, try small and over to guys a now where at least for the age palestinians have been killed and around a 100 others wounded by id. if attacks in the past 24 hours. one is really strike targeted guys are sitting in the north of the enclave. a wanting something view as my find the following images disturbing. the home of a policy and in depth, the power of medic was hit in one of the strikes and full members of his family were killed and several others injured. a 2 of his children all believed to be trapped on to the rumble. and the central gags of 5 people were killed and 17, all those injured and the latest idea of the tax according to local authorities. now, among those when did with children, including even babies of those strikes,

targeted, the news arrived refugee camp less than a week after is ready, forces killed $274.00 people in that area of the you. and i said, you believe the id if might have committed war crimes during the rate of the depths of children named gaza, accounted for nearly 40 percent of all mine, those killed in the conflicts globally last year. and that's according to you. instead, they expect you to be issue this month and cited by some media outlets. but of all the world health organization has sounded the alarm. how about the growing number of children in the enclave suffering from acute mound nutrition. a significant proportion of guides us population is now facing. it does propaganda and finding like conditions over 8000 children under 5 years old had been diagnosed and treated for acute monday to should including 1600 children with severe acute monday 3 should. according to hewett estimates over half of gas as population,

more than $1000000.00 people are expected to be facing starvation and even death within the coming weeks. while the scene in the fall, would he say more than 37000 people have been killed in gather since the conflict? the rapid loss? yeah. the un recently adopted a new c 5 resolution as locals in the ankle. you've been denying an immediate end to the violence. that's very fair enough. we are exhausted every day we are forced to relocate to a different area. our young children are deprived of food and water. we have nothing enough is enough to me to have good, truly understands or suffering. tell me, as you can see with love behind all our clothes and belongings, everything people piteous. we need the world to show us compassion a little bit. and i hope for a ceasefire to take place beyond what has happened to us is enough. it's over whelming well devastated. please, i call up on all the nations to stand by us the way from the middle east. now,

while the neighbor chief is called to make a 2 key monday through 4 block members, the slovak defense minister has accused his purpose as of treason for sending 5 to judge ukraine and says he's filed a criminal complaint over the matter. would you give any sense of any pulled up the ministry of defense will fall, a criminal complaint for several facts that would violate it did not matter. i think that there is no longer any reason to tolerate any lies that some politicians show here weakening the armed forces in this way. country to the constitution cannot be described in our political dictionary as anything other than fries and there is no other word for it. i don't know if it legally constitutes a crime, but he is a person who betrayed national values and also the voc. yeah, 113, solve your era, fly to a judge. do you grade last year on the basis of an integrated mental agreement on the previous defends, administer has rejected the trees in plain saying all legal considerations had been

taken into account before agreeing to deal with kids. while the car defends administered to golf as in october 2023 as part of robot fits those new government . slovakia savvy would no longer send arms to ukraine and from its own mandatory spots. let's cross live to form a prime minister of the baka young cotton. a goose key is nice to have you join me right now. can the move by former defense minister to hand over so many fight the just the train without having a replacement for them be classified as 3 isn't you know, it is not the, the issue that i can decide or any anybody else can decide except for us to prosecute the agenda persecutor, public prosecutor, and then then of course the court about to about the se complaint. the minister of defense as

a minister of defense made them by the form i missed the defense made of treason. busy also lock yeah, buying at the same date, the effect, the company it goes lead to an enzyme inside the system of some sort of academy through the you guys as yes it is that i do it. and a bit about the, as i, i repeat in the 1st the prosecutor is probably prosecute daughter should should go. busy decided about the probably big issue and then the court. all right, now the vx minister has claimed that the move was made with all legal considerations. well, can you, when life knows when it comes to legal considerations covering issues like this,

can you give us an idea of what those kinds of considerations could be? yes. and then i'll go to the question that is, and it should be, it should be decided 1st that the, the tire more minutes to odessa. seattle, so i'm not and then send it, send it there to you guys and the systems to pay in as a member of the. busy of the rarely missionary government after after good. no, no. i think the labs of the former government, the officer. so hawk. yeah. and they probably do cause additional. so back. yeah. such rarely been there to get a government cannot do shady, always be the seizures. golfing, you know,

and for the policy and sending to complete the resources that most of the economy to, to, for the state 40 boundary in this case you gain, of course it is a cdls matter. so i didn't do that and let me just tell me self defense d e in that time it was in february or march allows. yeah, he sold in the d v. a paper and the dog that he has it is a theme of the eyes is that he goes to do it by denial. know where they get to find this. if the so called eddie the energies and get yes and the 2nd a daughter is a former minister of that uh sold. uh, so we love the add that as we uh,

sending they say this just that we just es $3.00 to $300.00 system harassing system. and because we really get a, you're a better assistance from the rest. i've got a good bye to, but we did not get any better yet for was made before 12, or 3 months. we had bought. the bucket has got back yard from germany, but did not to not to do each procession by the just for a short period of time. and after i repeat after to g for boss, germany has taken the bet you're back to germany. so now we have no entire me. so system, right? we have a, we had to get money for this. s 300,

send it today is sites do you gain by the didn't get anything, but i think it is the lowest damage. you have got it. okay. now now in your opinion, how will the west react to this development? could it be an additional reason to further put the passer on slovakia? i think that was what you would say or just a day, you know, steps and there is i'm directly say that it is an inner match. i also block. yeah. all right. we have to leave it here. now did we go? because it days it is a metal slovakia and no other country can decided to

accept. so back yeah, the other countries have gone through these are even estimate yes. yes. but the geishas, quote, commanded right about it above that's all. okay, thank you so much for your insights. you understand a lift gate from a prime minister of slovakia. rarely. i appreciate your inside here. thank you. now with the country that's been cashed dropped for years now. the approved approval by argentina. senate talbot, presidents, controversial economic reforms explode that into valve is on the streets in the country. the police use the a gas or the war, the academy, and then they attempt to quail the crowds in the capital born as iris as the senate
