a bunch of indications of heightened military activity by the ukrainian army along the length of the front line in the east and south in line with the expectations of a summer counter offensive. although literally in the way of means of corroborating the reports we're getting and that's because the premiums themselves are being very guarded with details except for the official policy. now not to give a running commentary of events. and you see that very much in the words of president zalinski phrasing his fights is in the east talking about battles on going to be about results, but giving no indication of what those results may be. he mentions back move to the big city in the east that is being the scene of heavy fighting some of the longest and bloodiest battles of the war. it was captured by the russians just last months, months he may be talking about incremental gains that the trade ins it'd be making in the last few days towards the villages in the vicinity. of fact, most of the kind of deal attempt to try and circle the safety in

a counter attack against the russians in black moods. he said there have been results. he is grateful to those who achieve those results well done in black mood, he says, step by step and further signs of significant activity along the front line towards the south east ends up a regia region reports. there were repeated attempts by ukrainian unix to reach russian defenses potentially to try and touch supply lines to the south. those reports coming from the russians, not from the ukrainians who say they have supported those attempts and inflicted heavy losses independently, corroborating those russian reports of pictures. now out on social media that show elected to tank apparently abandoned. secondly, damaged and in the company of it, a number of bradley fighting vehicles. the level 2 german major cost donated by several nato countries. the bradley fighting vehicles donated to the opinions by the americans and the presence of those vehicles on the battlefield would suggest

the involvement of units of the ukrainian armies specifically trained and equipped full of the stomach counter offensive. and again, no comment from the ukranian side. other than to say that in the south, the enemy is on the defensive. joe, the whole elder 0 keith stones, warring size, have agreed on another safe spot. this one last thing, just 24 hours. it's you to begin in the coming out. well, there's been intense fighting across the dock since mid april, even during a string of previously negotiated juices. and u. s. federal court has on seals and and documents against former us president donald trump. dates heading $37.00 charges of 18 to the mishandling of classified documents, according to indictments. those documents include some of the most sensitive us military secrets, including information on the us nuclear program. that is the headlines. news continues and l just air after drug trafficking,

politics and power. the, the the, this is a coffee failed. once. cons because of the clause secrete somewhere right, kayla. smoky fluid called latex based opium, used by mine as a bomb for molten 5 millennia opium release. pain in the peace of mind, and that should have been the end of it. so this drug would play a policy and some of mankind's great to stop peebles imperialism colonization,

the cold war, and more recently, globalization without the backing of states. drug trafficking would never have existed released into the heart of the system. drugs have dictated the own g. upon addicts in the shadows, secret operations widespread corruption drugs and now paused at the very flash of the world's democracies to move the street to the jungles of columbia from shanghai to capital, call towns, mafia, banks. pharmaceutical labs and political policies have a whole list of drug trafficking. the results, the death of staging, whole population, stigmatized, o displace families, toner pont. today we stop counting the date the, this documentary serious looks back at the sinew is history of drug trafficking.

starting with opium, which the foam is cool, the gift from the goats the time of the 19th century person was engaged in front of grace to conquer new territories and new resources. with cotton, t peta and other commodities, the british and pon liberalize the world. in india, britain laid his hands on a particularly strategic results. it was close to the city of interest in the ganges valley, the highest quantity of opium green,

the pretty structured it's farming and intensifying production. with this 1 pm, person hope to in the power struggle against the world's greatest power is the time the empower of china. china refused all free trade. it sold massive amounts of porcelain and t. so appreciate it by the british vote, nothing a tool in return. there wasn't much the china need a china was the oldest, the operating carmen, the world heading back to millennial was a self contained economy. and so coming up with goods, that's that the world's most advance consumer economy needed. that was an impossibility. and the chinese are lead to long socialization by stuffing the pipes with all kinds of spaces,

suffering cancer on one day opium and it's will smoke, could soon cause to spend on chinese high society. in a panic, the emperor decided to bonnet the modern history of drug store. he was approved and they should have an addictive substance on the greed of the british empire. these substances have one very powerful advantage from a cynical business perspective. so to think the drugs are addictive, creates out of early, possibly o billing consumers and building consumers. they, people literally get hooked on the substance. the next step was purely logistical. the british crown couldn't be seen to be involved in smuggling. so it goes to job to private traders of the most avid amongst them. william john dean and james

matheson loaded thousands of chests of opium onto the ships in india and set sail for china. the distinction between private mercantile interest and the government. these were not completely separate there, there was a commonality of interest to the age of imperialism. and commerce was good for the pyre, the empire was good for commerce. so. so these things very much went together on behalf of the british crown. georgie and memphis and to scottish gentleman and embroidered waist coats and payton left. a slip was invented. international drug trafficking in the bay of count on the to trade is bribes. the postal forages on sold the call goes of opium to the chinese and press worst enemies. the triads, these powerful secret societies had a single name to the through the dentist in power. look him up with you see,

i don't need to that was only the 1000000 that dental you didn't me and it was to defeat. it took over there to say it says to this, you know, at the present the companies don't disagree unified data on that. be, these are things you get to appear, man. the click big it to appear, man. a deal. so they could do a few months to defend them until they put some piece of the on the family diesel. put them under the book. come the hunches that publishing 11939, the emperor of photons, district prison, thousands of smugglers, and have 20000 chests of british opium, destroyed charging. and madison seized on this as a pretext back in london, they convinced the highest authorities that will was the only way to open up the huge market. the china represented was a 3rd of the world's population. so in the name of profit, britain launched p. o,

p m was in fact in china, many chinese historians date the modern era from the opium wars. this, this is one china, which had been a self sufficient empire for, for hundreds or thousands of years, suddenly becomes the victim of imperialism. the defeated emperor was forced to legalize opium and to open off his country to foreign trade. he seated hong kong to the british to time the island into an outright opium hop or in 16 years sales that the drug could risen from 3000 to almost 6000 tons a year. the to finance this blooming opium trading includes founded the hong kong and shanghai banking

corporation, hsbc. these gloss talents of the heritage of an era which told us of what is now the 7th largest bank in the world in terms of assets and the job in math as in group appear as well. trade on the 1st business degree make a rich from drug trafficking. the simple isn't really, was of that. the colonial power was shelving opium, literally down to floats, of the chinese people and sentencing chinese man and be made up to the state. things like addiction to the ability to the lives that kept them often torn from the families and they couldn't obviously deprived following the opium was uprisings, bird accounts across china. resulting in millions of desks the empire sunk into a slow agony. to avoid the total collapse of its economy. china, it again growing its own puppies. china is borders with

finally open. millions of chinese fled to the world's main pulse like london, amsterdam, and san francisco. and they took the practice of opium smoking with stuff. so if the original sin was that the west or western imperialist foisted opium on the chinese, the chinese and away had the revenge. because with this great, they asked for, of the chinese immigrant community on opium. smoking is transplanted all over the world. the united states, at the time of the gold rush, chinese workers provided easily exploitable labor opium spread through the china towns that the big cities in europe opium also made nations heavy drug would make the dreams of colonial ground to come true for various countries

from the tunnel arrival of great britain intended to turn into china into a mountain colony, a mirror of its own power. it constructed expensive infrastructures such as roads, bridges, and railroads. the colonize ation, we have a quick, the french bucket seats in a little as if i go to work. pretty cool, and you'll have to do actual ordering. the hardest, if you're to recruited, you could do it on the ground to the quality. so people at our, she has to do a daily mo, do do bestest boy or a key blade or don't be j. 1982 from started buying opium in india or in china and refining it in a modern factory in the city center of cycle. and opium became a standardized ready to smoke product code sion do on said in a 1000 to say stalls with the r o sign. so she to low pm opium regime. fronts

jealously guarded it's monopoly and severely punished any smuggling, the opium addicts, wherever it indo china the sooner the colonial cough as became the regime with supply or most of such as indo china is budget. the this lucrative model was copied by the other colonial powers. and the british, spanish and dutch, soon founded that own regimes. the opium industry would run on full steam until the end of world war 2, drugging millions of people across asia. now there was opposition to this and this in the 19th century, one very important group opposing this traffic was of course the missionaries because they saw the traffic in drugs as being opposed to their essential

mission of christian icing. these lands. and so there's, there's certainly a tension between the merchants and the governments and the imperial and ministrations that are interested in revenue. and the missionaries who are interested in souls. this tension reached a peak in china, india, or the 20th century. the empire had become the world's largest opium producer, overtaking india from deep within the country, huge call goes to send at the young, see referred to shanghai. within a few years, the port city had de thrown hong kong. shanghai was the new world capital of opium . the european powers controlled entire districts of the city known as concessions where the opium trade was booming. in shanghai, different quantities of opium were available far and refined opium. coveted by the

wealthy youth, will comp chinese opium for the poor classes. in 1986, 13000000 chinese people opium addicts, it was cottage, a massive probation campaign was conducted across the empire the europeans not turned out except the drug push of its trade, ignore the band and continued business as usual. so china time towards a new power. i mean to get cold, i'm lucky. i could do as well love for you be soon do see a traditional new demo. buskey some 40 piece on school. don't y'all an alias? i mean, i don't know if i could do the thought but was on the label for say, equal plan could on. they say, you know that they have the, a, c, c dog eat above all body, all by sea lead people could have yet to supplement low heat with those through the

big use that same sex. when is it does need to begin in the country. so it's a do you model to don't down the, in 19 o 9 in shanghai, the united states in china convened the 1st international opium convention. the european nations unanimously refused to reduce the production, but paris london announced it would soon reconsider deposition when they realize how far opium addiction had spread across the west the throughout the 19th century erected gumshoe its various industrial revolutions. millions of farm laborers had left the countryside and crammed into the sent as a monstrous manufacturing cities. with the in the salubrious living and working conditions. the slightest comp became infected cases of gang green increase. academics were rife, typhoid, tuberculosis, cholera,

doctors for it and loss. then suddenly the pain stopped from the fruit of the puppy chemist managed to extract a miraculous substance. they named it often move us the greek god associated with sleep in dreams. villamore seen that last seen. this has been a more female for them, not able to see on. but i, let's go and see and see us. if we wanna move the feet listed on monday, the the and then the when a little 8, when that extra a little more than welcome to pass out of what the in the mid 19th century, the german, high and rescue manual mass pioneer at the large scale commercial production of morphine within a few decades. his small love had turned it to germany's 1st pharmaceutical empire . today, it's the 1st largest pharmaceutical group in the world, the from 18. 61 during the american civil war. 10000000

doses of wolfing were given to union soldiers the during the 1st massive blood boss of the mountain, the era, the quality of oil surgery also improved greatly. thanks to moving doctors could ease pain, operate and if necessary, even to take on the battlefield. the invention of the hypodermic needle accompanied this progress, injected intravenously, multitudes grip tightened. patient's no longer suffered, but they became totally hurt. so the pharmaceutical industry set out to find an antidote and came up with a multi usage substance which could on hook opium addicts. cocaine advocated by youngs in ease. dr. sigmund freud level guy enough, and i'm seeing one of the most of them you that and i'm not co sign one way buckle go more. gussy massy cooking us. have you have like a level of cnc a little fair?

you would go to a pharmacy and you would, the pharmacist would have a little chart that will take okay, and would dispense you cocaine photo variety of elements. cocaine became a flagship product, sold in the form of an alexia appointment spray or cigarette. the newspapers were full of ads. the main targeted estimate was the well to do woman. she didn't what? so how may just suffering was booed him. throughout the 19th century and then to the early 20th century, drugs became cheaper and people discovered that all you can inject cocaine or snorted up the nose. or you can mix morphine and cocaine and you can check them as it's, it's very, it produces a very powerful you for you. 81898. the industrial

pharmaceutical lab via came up with a new opium derivative guaranteed a 100 percent non addictive results. so the 1st tests performed on dogs, hardly conclusive, intense drowsiness, a tendency of vomiting, an abundance foundation. by a nonetheless launched a new product under the triumphant name of heroine. recommended for the treatment of asthma, an infant teasing pains. if you look at the history of morphine, if you look at the history of heroine, if you look at the history of cocaine, these things do not enter the world as evil under world drugs. they enter the world as medicines. it's almost like a genie that escapes the bottle. the there was new q as a morphine addiction was still each new product attracted its own band of addicts.

throughout the 19th century, the industrialization of western nations turned living conditions, hygiene and education upside down. you work, organization practices, place the individual at the center of that concerns. the 20th century dawned with new models. there was arise of the idea that the state had the responsibility in order to produce a strong citizenry for uh, no trained mobilization for national development. that the state has a responsibility to regulate how the body was used, the on fettered market in addictive drugs, was a real social problem and a real social evil that needed to control drug control, including prohibition, was born of the same progressive international movement that gave us the

regulatory state that gave us the welfare state that gave us social on a form that gave us protections for workers for unions. pro vision was finally enforced. the united states began by binding opium in 1989. this voltage shot in san francisco chose hundreds of opium pipes going up in flames. in 1914, with the harrison at the us regulated in tax opiates and coca products indispensible for surgery. from then on cocaine, morphine and heroine would only be available by prescription thousands of drug use as he once vote. they daily fix over the pharmacy counter. didn't know where to turn to is that terrible cravings. 2 c, s dido, the se,

believable stomach garcia. and so they monday into effect. lucas, i must say, is because they can, they don't make our next mic guy. they'll give you a list to begin. this is done the split just the late, excuse me, nice. to meet demand, the criminal underworld land. how to refine harrowing in mexico, in the photon region of sinaloa thomas grew puppies to supply the american pharmaceutical industry. in the early 19 twenty's, they saw new customers suddenly turn up. the 1st big figure in mexican drug trafficking. was ignacio. yeah, so alias nacia, she bought one opium in sinaloa and had it transformed into a brown heroine of media quality by chemist in her employee. nachos, so topics on the style of the bar trays close to the border with the united states in see you dodge wise to apply this is that big?

i have a lot pretty menissi that list. i don't need and say it's a pass what they us influences as opposed to them. they move just a little cause like i this it gave me like that is the pass up. what i, i don't mess the natal rolled us the product last or they'll kept those look at the policy making that buy separately from that us. you have quite us for a few years the united states would be living under the yoke of the pro division of alcohol. first, the americans cross the rio grande to so top bad quality whiskey in the gambling the ends of c a data. while, as i mean, is happy to butchery, abuse, and contraband, and i'm not sure i have no trouble getting at her when feasible to post her family run business with dominate trafficking for 3 generations until the birth of the 1st mexican drug cartels

the legalize ation of drugs gradually stretched across you are a, giving rise to new black markets with increasingly powerful ships, maritime transport, drop boat is even close to the big commercial pulse, became strategic smuggling points among the mall, say, where he goes from caustic and organized crime. c, set jones, the the world's pollinators are in decline. in this episode of tribes, we need to enter mortgages on opposite sides of the planet. protecting insects of all sizes, crucial to preserving food chains. i've come to the u. k. to see how old industrial sites are being turned into a bug reserves in an attempt to reverse this were in trend fighting effect to get on on al jazeera. finding

i've tried to speak with them tomorrow. russian president vladimir puts in size, he believes ukraine's offensive has begun, and his training for the last week has seen intense baffles but chief has maintained silence. earlier russia's defense ministry announced that its forces had repelled several attacks by ukrainian army, as we can definitely say that the counter offensive is done. we can state that since that using strategic reserves from the ukraine. you know me, not in any of the directions, have they achieved any of that goals? this is obvious. meanwhile, ukraine surprising environments that lensky has been praising his troops. faulty cold results, further east, and the don't yet screeching shows the school. but we are in constant communication with our military commanders of the courts. it's on top of you agree to forces with all those involved in the most heated combat areas. don't ask region faces,

the legalize ation of trucks gradually stretched across europe, giving rise to new black markets with increasingly powerful ships, maritime transport, drop boat is even close to the big commercial pulse, became strategic smuggling. points among the most say where he goes from caustic and organized crime, c set jones because we deal with the box code on that the, the math on the coffee go see that you could see, you know, 12 p cooler and young depends on the dc. so some of these are they could be a symbol you can display is boxing it when you do call pull the new code on the next time. oh no, it don't see all the feelings, the top, the, the, the fields, the scott, they me search me mounted team. are illegal survey all good, easy,

the coffee, pres? one, the don't in the mid 19 twenty's pool come on a full, a match and semen turned white slaves, 10 became the boss of the caustic and massa. people type him in turkey where it was widely grown to supply pharmaceutical lapse. in most say, the chemist employed by the close to can massey transformed this into heroine, which was then shipped to where the pro, division of drugs was the strictest. the united states is see, put the deputy called the coffee, do the move. they will preserve cool. not easy or see, see what to say trio. so you to put you if you want. he said to present peace surface to do with these drug money poll called bone bolt, the american all se had his own man hired on the waterfront and bride. the city's police force, the godfather, rump top is trafficking laying the foundations of the french connection. in these

early days of drug trafficking arrangements with the powers that be were crucial to organized crime. whether that was a to city level, like with them all say, or a country level, a country where the story began. china, the, in the early 19 twenty's, the empire collapsed. an army started fighting. i've had dozens of china's regions . there was no central power. and therefore nobody to find to organized crime. in shanghai, the opium dens never being so prosperous. the triads range as most as a vi underwhelmed some of these hook. you saw that for the traffic of the appeal. the pull for you to didn't these on who they will see you on the because you don't need me. you put do you see from the powerful green gang one man stood out. whose name do you shang delicate machine? you do?

you should see like suggestion yes. is it a face test and you get it done? you put this up against the door, you're saying that i think the most okay. put it in 1921. the chinese communist party was founded inside the french concession differential. socrates was good and the approach do you shang? that's how so can you meet that? decry many steps to get this done that please don't speak english. i have at least taken c, c o 2. so the nets and these machine what month? see those. who said, don't look, see? yeah, go through this house key, the legal issues go with the fact that good. yep. the fringe aust, do you shang, to re establish older inside the concession? in exchange, the traffic code would be allowed to take over all of the concessions opium. then you can put the boxes to,

to kind of once comfortably installed. do you offer 2 services to them? business, chinese general. shank, i check his head of the army of the clementine, the chinese nationalist policy, shang kyesha and to reunify the country to do so, he would have to take shanghai in 1927. do you shang ordered his men to masika hundreds of communist who taken control of the city and opened the gates of shanghai to shang county. shakes, ami the the general soon imposed clementine is the country's government. but to keep control of china he needed money. so the clementine legalized opium. do you shang, straight to the green gang became the government's main supplier, and the number of its members was sent to sit at parliament. china became the

world's 1st non co state. do you shang step copies activities, hiring chemists and setting up a heroine factory inside shanghai? central market. like home, thoughts do, do, do succeeded, needs the best. so 90 d x time wise clicks tablet, do you mean you? she knew all you need the policy. the preview on the, on the, to her when resigned in china, mexico and from converge on the united states. but in late twenty's america, the biggest issue was nika, the pro division was making, guns, does reach the, to monopolize the millions made from smuggles moonshine. the autonomy and not be

a systematic. he threatened and mowed, untenanted, crushed its competitors. prohibition created non predict to disrupt his power on widespread corruption. al capone's, judges police officers and politicians in his pocket until he finally fell. by 1930, it was clear that this was, this was failing. there was a government commission called the wickersham commission that, that surveyed the alcohol prohibition and decided that that it was with them with corruption. and so, and 1933, you got the, the end of prohibition of alcohol. suddenly, the, the, the monthly head was this, the mostly profitable enterprise, the deprived of its main source of income, the autonomy and masha united around lucky luciano phones and alliance with meyer

lansky. together they took control of the heroine market, to maximize profits. the mil upstairs costs and recall the drug. their adulterated products caused infections of doses. but the end of the prohibition on alcohol also caused run cost and frustration. a need to return the coal conservative white americans. the enemies of all kinds of highs and pleasures. the pre probation fights was laid by the new head of the federal bureau of narcotics. harry jay, i'm sitting on an advocate of strong arm tactics and a brilliant tactician. he saw himself not just as and forcing a prohibition on drugs, you know, he was in fact, 1st of all a moral campaign or enforcing if you will, a moral consensus upon the society. in 19 thirty's, america, hollywood was electrifying audiences. how are you?

i'm assuming encourage movie directors to instill the fear of drugs. among them. he directed his rough on marijuana, which was still legal in the united states. on screen white women, tempted by the devil inevitably succumbed a new role. it's a sometimes associated 10 to a mexican little by little. how are you? i'm assuming his moral campaign via towards the racist propaganda kindly asked him to come on, which was and other, it just doesn't need the nc the i make equal communities and the best phone number associated meant that the fight in this past year meant the inside the orders, he made an absolute equation between as in the city and drugs. opiate was chinese. marijuana was mexican americans. and so he was unashamed in,

in using the drugs as a way of stigmatizing and attacking minorities. in 1977 marijuana was prohibited in the united states, organized crime would benefit from this new ban, sorry, on sling a, knew it, and got ready to fight them. the, on the harry, on swing on the federal bureau of narcotics foster international co operation. and in 1932, the traffic goes and the merchandise was finally trace from east stumble to new york. viable in and sean guy the

during the 1st use of world war 2, oceans and seas with the c, it has a cs bottles, traffic and came to a halt and the drugs ran out. but this response was short lived. the 1st huge international drug trafficking network would late foundations, but the height of all 1943 after the us army landed in sicily, its priority was to keep it out of axis hands. so good. ringback washington started looking for men to temporarily go from the island. no generational connections, you need a specialist who's as well. lead hope, hopefully a day of course is what i need please. chris as well. the letting me these costume what the diesel t. uh now they pass to the degree of fascist. they have

a good proceed, a liquid reduced 80 met you don't please. i mean they turn key, they do the basketball. i've a 10 year old. good luck, quasi value me up and i guess i need video lee could be least easily launch was due cold lemax. you can you tell me lose you do. if she hate the don't i'm, i'm all can you think i'm, i'm about to create more court by the americans. for years he moved into the town halls and took control of the different parts of the island. in 1945, the us expelled to age, removing a 100 mill upstairs, involved in harrow and trafficking, including lucky luciano. the boss of codes in australia, the american customs, and the sicilian mass. you would turn the island into a drug trafficking help below 20 by 30 on it cannot initial letter love to on it on for the for blame. we did just the on the lot of getting approved but can

phenomenal the secret the but then said no they've done think but that they know it up and one is use the but me, anthony back not showing me that god or the other. all guy seem to be bad. yeah. if we and you know, chat with a lot mr. chavez, it cleaned it. but when, but he was able to to update that. yeah. and it goes down and put the blame on heroine once again, flowed into the united states. but heroine of poor quality sicily was shows on qualified candidates in 1950, and must say, lucky luciano met with the new bosses of the call. so can mafia, antoine, and not telling me getting the brothers have to kind is capable of refining opium, to make the highest quality heroine heroine full, practically pure and possible to come dozens of times to make the biggest profits without a sick on a thought to uh, to start the or to develop something else. i mean, i could cos shiels shield

a knuckle does. you've seen a de, this'll tend to, to the meeting between the gary and lucky luciano gave birth to the french connection. a vast web of turkish lebanese caustic and sicilian traffic has cozen austria controlled the distribution in the united states. but very soon the caustic ends in charge of refining and transport would gain ascendancy. it is a disease could be what the state body plenty of help, lower the plymouth city and the level of the best of coast validated classical. if you take a look at myself, so i'm going to lift you yeah. select video and i'll say see if you have the cops and i'll say look, you know, i don't, couldn't see machine a loader to pretty so that i'm actually, i mean again,
