for this upcoming visit is also mugs held relations between vietnam and russia. have grown in many areas such as security, cooperation, energy corporation, economic cooperation, cultural educational corporation, and many other areas. since it's sylvia theater viewed them, and russia had comprehensive cooperation with each other. this visit is not a very important element. and what you just said to the whole world that we're still friends, each visited by lighting and put in was seeing if i buy documents of cooperation and developments. and i believe that in the future, all the serious will develop further, especially corporation in energy and defense, energy corporation between russia and vietnam has been very long standing. is the most powerful speed of cooperation between the 2 countries, especially in the modern context of climate change in global warming. russia is a country with a lot of experience in innovating or strengthening renewable energy, and is useful not only for vietnam, but also russia in other countries as well. the, the russian defense ministry has stated that you cranes last up to 300 soldiers in

the heart of the region. in the past 24 hours are to increase the dell of centers this report from the ground on just how it russian troops are making gains on the front line. so the only reason we can move like this right now, i mean house in the open in broad daylight is because the morning missed still has not been completely chased away by the wind. because otherwise, this is the tv because because the drone problem ground we approach and unassuming shrub that turns out to be a, well this guy's more to so that's exactly one line of russian infantry between this a 2 millimeter more to as well and ukrainian troops. so whenever that 1st line need, some will powerful support. this crew comes to 8. first. we

are amy uh, 40 kilometers away from ukraine, 2nd largest city, or highest of the troops mission here on the russia, ukraine board. that is to detect queue forces from trying to take over russian territory to retaliate for most whose own operation in the heart of region. and the border guardian now enjoys the extra fly a power of the much special forces. our murder is located a kilometer from the ukrainian positions. it hits 3 kilometers deep covering a fairly wide area. the main advantage of our mortar battery is that the fighters themselves determine the targets and when to hit them, we have eliminated the entire chain of confirmation with higher command rushes. vigilance is not on the founded ukraine had carried out such attacks before and now has a master for miserable garrison on the border once again, nor change them over. there was a very large concentration of enemies here. at least several 1000 were brought here

all along the front line. the forces are accumulating the big of the pile, the easier it is for us to hit the targets. it's the best job in the world. so far the sides here exchange are telling the fire and use drones for constance and target hunting. but the infantry is one away from jumping into the enemy's trenches . i guess done of t was the money on my call and shot decision to call a self election following his parties. disastrous showing at the recent to europe in parliament all at grave or political suicide. rick sanchez, i'm the direct impact show the the power body. i'm rick sanchez. this is

direct impact, and this is what we're going to be talking about. the you see that right there? those are been the scenes in the streets of france. what does that signal for a manuel? i'm a crohn. it's complicated, but it's also not good for him. i'm rick sanchez. and i'm going to take you through this and tell you why. let's do this thing the, i want to start to show talking a little bit about them and well look around the president of france. you know, he used to be one of the most popular leaders in all of europe that was really, really popular at the thought he was elected president around 2017 because he was seen as a good looking, you know, common sense guy who connected very much with the people of france and their needs but take a look at the people of france. now the

see this has been kind of crazy. what's been going on, protesters taking that the streets of france summer, angry at my crown summer, angry at the right. but there just seems to be a lot of anger right now in france. and what these images seem to confirm is that change is in the air. so, so let's talk about this a little bit. what's really happening right in france. it's kind of similar to what's happening in a lot of western countries as citizens appear to be tiring of leaders who seem to be more interested in world and global affairs. then they do in their own affairs. you know the stuff that affects the people. but kron, for example, has become more of a global and bassett, or then what his role was in the past. he fights now for your brain. what are raise about taiwan? concerns himself with israel and their needs?

how sees lavish affairs with these 4 leaders? and they still allows them to come into the palace with the guards, all dressed up, and the bugles playing. i mean, it's almost like he's, he's, he's not giving to regions what parisian is always seem to want. and that's the energy that's spent on them. and i don't know who is foreign leaders who are coming in for all these lavish affairs. right. right now i'm a chrome is not popular and was telling material elections that are coming up in june uh, late june and early july book. i'll just be honest with you, it's very possible, but his opponents will take over his government even though he still has like 3 years left in his presidency. enter the leader of the right here she is, maureen latan. this soon to be ok. so we're ready to turn the country around. we're ready to revamp france. so here's what's interesting about her, about the pet and right. i'm like my chrome, she's very popular and very much

a populous right. she seems to be perceived as much more oriented on the needs of the french people, for example, much less concerned about the needs of israel and ukraine, and taiwan and all those other countries. i'll give you an example of one of the specific issues that you're dealing with right now, right? well, she has criticized russia for its actions in ukraine. she has also said repeatedly that she believes that france and russia should work on becoming allies at some point in the future. no, i can't help but wonder manila if my crown is failing to read the tea leaves. does he not look around and see what's going on? what the people are essentially saying? kind of like what we have in this country, or maybe maybe he just doesn't care. what do you 6? well 1st, rec, i, i kind of beg to differ on this one about my chrome, your read. i disagree that my friend was ever, you know, this man of the people. there were just limited choices at the time. he was elected

. i mean, here's a guy who came from the banking world, made millions. and then at this point, you know, he's a lame duck leader and throwing anything at the wall that will stick. he came in as this young, charismatic guy. he, he charmed the french voters the same way that brock obama did state side. but similar to obama, his tenure has proved to be that of global as designs. i mean, the big yellow best protests that were sparked by the petrol tax hikes. then they were joined by protesters, angered by the proposed increase in retirement age. morrila, penn, on the other hand, is kind of taking the mazda approach, right. she's very trump in her rhetoric, but more selective and her verbiage that trump was, she grew up in a world of politics, right? the oh, her dad, what, but my point is this. she was popular before, but she seems more popular now. is that just normal acceleration? or is it because the french people perceive chrome as a guy who wants to be more like marie and gwinnett hoss?

so i would say, after decades of this, of a failed meal, liberal leadership in france were perhaps seeing an over correction in the form of the national front taken states mon, my crowns party in the, the e u. elections. i think my pros party is in big trouble and in these forthcoming snap elections coming up. yeah, i agree. by the way, speaking of presidents in trouble politically i, i want you to look at what's happening right now, right here in the good old usa. finally, some of the polling is in regarding former president trump's conviction. it isn't good, i'll be honest with you. it's not good while republicans and democrats, nothing change with republicans and democrats, 21 percent of independence in and up. so it's paul just said they're now less likely to vote for mr. trump because he's a convicted criminal. now, well, you would think that would be incredibly great news for president biden's numbers

and that they would soar and wrong they haven't. in fact, polls now show off for 25 percent of all americans at this point hate both candidates. they're called double haters. that's what they're actually being referred to in the polls. never in the history of america. have these numbers been seen? 25 percent of all americans and growing now hate both candidates. mister bonds problem is what he just can't get away from because it's it's, it's visual, right? people are seeing with their own eyes, this feeble little old man. we all want to feel sorry for, but he seems confused. almost seems like he's kind of, i mean, like he's losing it. i'll give you some examples. look at this. this is the president at the g 7 summit watching a power shooting exhibition. he appears to just now watch, keep watching, watch fight, and on the right side of your screen. and as you watch him, you're going to see that he just, he just wonder why. he just starts walking away. nobody knows why. finally,

the italian prime minister watched she goes and grabs him at maloney. she goes over and grabs him and brings him, but she was like his granddaughter say grandpa get over here and she retrieves them to bring him back to the group. let me show you another piece of video. what's this? alright, look at this here is that a fundraiser in los angeles recently, is that george clooney event. we told you about the optics. you are so bad. there's the apps that are president obama appearing to grab them by the hand and lead them away from the stage. this is not a good image, especially considering that obama is already perceived as the puppet master by the president's opponents. all right, come back to me now because i want to show you another one here. victor. take a look at this. here is the president at a white house event where all the it's and these have been handpicked. they're all signed lease, right? so there's no impact on this here because they're all invited to the white house. there's no reporters here, just a few social media personalities like this picked up the guy who comes up to the

president. and i asked him, what is essentially a reasonable question? watch your typical press guy, your trust here as far as where your phone i can but my point is the very, very clear i have to do the i was gonna cut off on i mean stuff to look at. okay. i'm sorry. let me bring you back in here as you're watching these videos. i mean, his aid has to come in again,

grab them by the hand and take them away. this is just not a pretty picture. i mean, i said, months and months ago on this program that i didn't think he was going to continue as a candidate or make it to the presidency as a candidate, i'm not saying is gonna pass away or anything. i got to tell you it's looking at some of these things. i'm standing by that reporting at this point. i know. yeah, rick, biting moments are becoming a, a trending hash tag on social media these days and, and obviously for good reason. what we saw there with georgia malott, maloney going over there to to fetch the president like she's has personal nurse at this point it's just to add, in my opinion, i mean forget how crazy it is to see the so called leader of the free world. so feeble and, and last, it's sad to me that biden's family would allow this charade to continue. why doesn't anyone love this man enough to say, all right, pops,

it's time to retire. listen, there are spy. 80. some things out there in the world, you know, running marathons, doing things that you have to reach like me can't do. but joe biden, a one of them. that's an observable, fact this, this is not political mudslinging, rick? no, it isn't observable. no. but then, but then you have pay wires and propagandists like the white house press secretary . yeah. john pierre outright lying to our faces and telling us not to believe our line. i've the playing video from the g 7 or the fundraiser that these were, you know, are deep space, you know, but this is just terrible. don't believe yourself via she's saying the american people are essentially being told. we know he doesn't look good in public. but trust us when, when, when he's at the white house or when he's having meetings, he's totally different. he's filled with them and vigor. we've said this before and, and it's just an amazing thing. it's really insulting to the intelligence of the american people. and i will say this, and i think this is where the rubber meets the road on this story. the job i'm that

i remember seeing as a candidate is so different from the joe biden that i see now, what i'm saying is in these 3 and a half years, and i think you'll probably see it to the deterioration of this man has been manifest compared to anything i've seen in a long time, including reagan and i'm old enough to have lived riggins presidency. and at the end he wasn't doing so well either, but not as bad as this. yeah, it, it, all i can say is from my own personal experience with my grandmother is they, they kind of hit a tipping point. right. and, and they, it goes downhill pretty quickly and i feel like unfortunately that is what we are witnessing right now before our very eyes, even though korean john pierre says, don't believe your line. i the pictures tell the stories they always do. thanks manila, appreciate it. all right, so here's what we're gonna do when we come back my next guess. maybe us navy veteran, also co founder, a massively popular news platform denny politic. pardon me to jail politics.

important nat geo, where she says they are transcending the borders of a multi polar world. her name is sarah bills. there. she is joins us to discuss in just a bit. we'll talk garza us and a. busy lot more stay there, don't go away. will be right back the the, the

the, the let me hear about sarah bills. she's very popular. she's very smart. the geo politics is, are podcast. it's very, very popular. and she would be one of those that we would tend to call a truth teller and because of that, she's been getting a lot of heat lately. as you, as you look her up, you find out that a lot of folks are being critical of her and her work because they don't want her. i thing to say some of the things that she said, sarah, is good enough to join us now. hi, sarah. how are you? thank you so much for having me. you know, i was just reading a couple of these stories. i think it was a new york post. i was thinking a couple of hits that you know, how do you feel about that? and why do you think they do it? well,

i think that they do it because they're paid to do it by ukrainian information more people. um, but also because i was sort stream really supportive of restaurant and critical of what the west was doing and ukraine that it was special to silence us. also, the fact that our prior military gives me more offensive them even further. so they, they really feel the need to go after me, but most of the stuff in the new york post article is from random sources that i don't really know how i think i know a lot about myself from the new york started a call that i might have not known before. well, you know, there's a narrative right in the narrative in the united states seems to be that there are certain countries that we just have to hate on and russia. one of those countries just around is one of those countries in china is one of those countries. so that narrative is created and anybody who goes against that narrative, what troubles me is, it's okay to have a narrative in your mind. you can be against russia or for rush hour for ron or

forge either or for any country. what bothers me, the lack of fax and the lack of people, especially in the media when i watched them knowing anything about what happened and what, and in 2002 or what happened during the fall meant to go in and. and in 2014 or, or just really knowing anything about our world outside of maybe, you know, washington dc. a good one. and if we're lucky, um i think that they've taken advantage of the fact that the to what we know is the to communist, big communist countries, soviet union and china kind of, i swear i switch this during the time and they took the american definitely took advantage of that by presenting these met a narratives that are now in our subconscious of the americans as populace. we feel china is this authoritarian dictatorship, that kills people in $200.00 and square. and russia is a backwards alcohol lic, communist, a not engage like the people. and so, and then after that i have that in your head. and then after that,

every thing that your pool is measured up against that matter, met an area. do you know how crazy it is to compare russia to nazi germany when it was actually russia that did away with nazi germany? i mean, how stupid do you have to be right as well? that's part of it. we don't learn about russia's participation in world war 2 if you go through all school and the west is in the united states, which is i went through high school in junior high in the united states. where to start at pearl, harbor, and normandy, there was nothing. there is no eastern front to a student in the united states, only normandy, and then broken our and the pacific. that's it. that's world war 2. america came in . the rescue to the brits. they saved all the jews. that's the we don't even worry about rushing participation, soviet position and a war. it's incredible. it's incredible. let's talk a little bit about some of the geo politics that are taking place right now. and i think one of the most fascinating things are going on right now, and some of the reports that i was even reading just this morning as i was waking

up and catching up on the news, is this tip between the israel and hezbollah. and now everyone's talking about that that could be the new fraud. i know we've talked about this in the past, but now it's really starting to look like this thing could be another opportunity for mister netanyahu to prolong the fighting, which would be good because that's how he stays out of jail. and that's how he remains. prime minister did i get that wrong? i absolutely 100 percent agree. uh building it and y'all who was falling apart. i know that joe biden wouldn't mind replacing bidding at yahoo. so maybe right now wants to just last until the american election. he can't take a ceasefire before the american election. there can't be any huge monuments changes to this conflict before the american election. and i think that's what, that's what city is kind of counting on. and i mean for all intents and purposes, the majority of government is destroyed in terms of their infrastructure. so they're moving over to the north to bother hezbollah as not too far out of the

realm of possibility. yeah. but, you know, let's think about this for a minute. i want to, i want to speak as an american citizen, i live in this country. i love this country, and i love it a lot more than i love israel. why are all of our decision is being made on behalf of israel? and why is it now possible that between the who these and has bola, we could end up in a war with iran simply because that's what b b, that's a yahoo! in israel watts, it's not fair to me, it's not fair to my family. it's not fair to my kids who may end up having to fight in that war. and why are we being a, why are we able to ask these questions except maybe you and me here on the show. otherwise, this question is never asked, it's never repeated, and it's never answer. i haven't been able to ask these questions probably since september 11th when, when, when it really became apparent that israel was going to take a very commanding role in our foreign policy in the middle east. it really became

apparent after september 11th when they were very gone. home without the iraq war, they didn't really care about afghanistan, but um, i think that with all of the things that were happening in america at a time, maybe i'm, every day americans missed the fact that there was a zionist, basically, as i am as 2 of our 4 policy, i know our foreign policy lines are exactly like israel in the middle east. maybe there's a little bit more acceleration, just an extremist. but are performed. policy is the same as israel's in the middle east. so until we change our foreign policy in the middle east, we won't change our relationship with this rule. and just like joe biden said, if by any chance that the fees and his milan and the mass are successful and defeating is real, go by marty. so i'll just make a new one. i don't know, so i don't know if you had a chance to look at some of those pictures i showed a little while ago i, i was telling during the break i was telling some of the folks here, my crew that i felt sad as an american watching this, those, those visuals of,

of president biden just looks with each passing day like he's, condition is getting worse and worse. what, what, what, what, what's, what goes through your head when you look at these pictures, either personally or deal politically share that with me. do you politically, i don't thinking that it matters because joe biden is just a figurehead. i mean he, i think he has been since the beginning of his term really. it really wasn't the hands of victoria newland brock, obama, a jake sullivan, and anthony blinking on her personal and ethical standpoint. he's so far gone. i think that anybody has any experience with dementia knows that once you hit a certain climax that goes down hill very fast. yeah, pretty quickly. so he seems to be getting worse. i mean, i don't want to laugh, but like the other day it was interesting cuz like at the summit leaders kind of like corralled him and like guided by probably see was lost. and i was like,

this is so bad, we're talking about possible world war 3. and these, these world leader like this lead guy to this old last man. the, you know, the problem i have with some of those world leaders is they may, they may be more same, but they do the same stupid crap that he does in many ways. it's like a consortium, a video. see as far as i'm concerned, i think that they might know where they are now. yes. i feel like well i, i really sure they might not be competent, but they're called you or i think, yeah, no, think i will grant you that. what, what do you think is happening with the european union, with nato and with some of these trans fixes that seem to be taking place now with the, you know, with what is a very different world with a global self with bricks. literally standing up to this, these colonial powers and showing some defiance is when will be when,

when we see the breaking point or are we just going to be stuck or trans fixed between these countries in the brazil, russia, china, ron, saudi arabia, south africa, all these countries that are looking at the rest of the, of, of the western world and saying, you guys aren't the big guys anymore, we're going to have to share this power somehow. i don't see the sharing taking place yet. i just see a lot of antagonism. it's your view. well, not yet. i mean, i think that will see that some cases we've seen. you were talking about france before i came on, but we see france fall apart in africa, which is part of the d colonization process correct. out initiate by taking on nato . so we're seeing these things also a few more defiant, the positions in south america with my doodle and brazil, even so there are these sort of shrinks in the arm are starting to show um, you know, when the fact that the united states stole rush is money that's a weakness, that's not a power moves. so there's

a lot of things happening. but if you pay attention on the tipping point, i don't know. do get it fixed, it's 2024, but i think that's way too soon. but i think that this year for breaks will be a very heavy, southeast asian breaks and class. and i think that that's going to be very important. so we'll see maybe vietnam and malaysia. what you just said, something i thought was interesting, and i never heard it put that way. you said that the us up freezing rushes assets that essentially a sanctioning them and stealing their money is a sign of weakness define well, it actually puts the dollar and the risk. now that we're set, say it's not viable and it's not stable to keep your money with us. if we don't like you will have the interest. so that's a sign of weakness. the fact that america was willing to go to that and why to an almost, uh, differentiate their own dollar. i mean that the only thing i was up to a dollar is the military. yes, they will have in it. the military is getting

a little bit shaky. hold on how this much stays in the military, but so do the, how much space of the people have in the government, which is literally 0. and now you're stealing from other governments. it is, it is depleting the trust even further. it's just eroding that it's a great we have one minute left. final question, i want to ask you about your endeavor. i think it's fascinating what you're doing. i think your stuff is really good. at what point did you find that this was your place, as opposed to wanting to work at cnn or fox, or whatever any of those institutional places when, when did you reach your comfort zone and how and you got 45 seconds to tell me that . okay, well i always wanted to go, ever since i got ever since i, in the military, i knew that i didn't want it to be against the sort of american imperialism. i knew that this was the place for all of us when we were all docs and put into all of that danger. like you read in the new york post article and when we decided to keep going and not not to sacrifice our politics, it's

a keep going in the vein that we were still going and we are fine and that, that so now i think that's where we're supposed to be the science. thank you very much. it's what you're doing. good stuff. the geo politics is the name of the pod cast. sarah, your delight, thanks so much for taking time to share with us. that's our show. i want to remember, i want to remind you of something. it's kind of like our mission here, right? what do we do? we tend to never look somewhere else for truths. we don't believe truth live in little box. that's right. truths don't live in boxes. truth is everywhere, that's what we believe. i'm rick sanchez. we'll keep a living. we'll see you again. next time of the

the and the whole then the enemy knows world if we have prepared ourselves for the worse and no place to be spared, no rockets, israel must wait for us on land by sea and by their that's the warning from the leader of hezbollah coming as the idea of savings prepared to invade, levin on to attack the militant groups following months of mutual across the border, strikes the bottom of it and arrives in vietnam on his 1st visit there since 2017, to talk security and economic cooperation. following is historic trip to the dpr k . the comprehensive partnership agreement signed today also provides for the provision of mutual assistance in the event of aggression against one of the parties to this document. and.
