tilting crane is the defense against vs non for the russian clear food will not make it prevailing. as for people to be afraid, it's really important spray that lies that special relationship half this time folk about like issues you have just identified starting and costly ukraine where i think the next few weeks a month for feed crucial, very for, for to train in this fight for freedom. now, before that made a rush as president vladimir putin had worn to the west, but the use of long range arms would cross a red line and that russia might retaliate against nato targets. asked the w as a abraham in washington. how serious that thread is, it's difficult to really tell if this is a bluff, or there might be anything a behind it. and remember,

direct conflict with nato countries may not be the only way that russia could respond to something like this. they could start sort of wreaking havoc and other parts of the world getting in the way of, uh, western interest. for example, one could imagine that they may start supplying the who these with a weapons, for example. now this is all just speculation. but, you know, a direct conflict with a country that is a member of nato, which would be a major escalation, may not be the only way that putting would respond. should this decision come to pass and should a, you know, western allies now decided that western weapons would be allowed to strike targets within russian territory deep within russian territory. well, russia's military has launched a counter attack against ukrainian forces in the russian region. of course, early last month cube ordered its trips to enter a course and an attempt to draw a russian forces away from the front line in eastern ukraine. now russia says it

has recaptured a several villages from ukrainian forces, but you creating presidents, the landscape disputes that claim a collection forces on the offensive in cost must go claims to have recaps of several settlements in the region. ukrainian president followed them as the lensky said, that despite direction gains, things are going according to planned ship. what should the luck horse? that's what the curse corporation did. the i'm a shot maybe some unexpected different results. they gave the results that frankly, we expected to use the enemy has been stopped in the harkey region in his progress . and the next region is in slowed down. although it's very difficult there. i mean, in the situation there is still far from positive it down to can never the less the level been withdrawn their forces in other areas when they separate all this,

we ceiling most good. it says it's pushing ahead with its counter offensive. its forces claim to have destroyed several pieces of military equipment, type some ukraine, as well as some nato countries. while the armed forces of the russian federation have carried out $39.00 groups strikes with precision guided weapons and striked round. as a result, the following has been hit, oil and energy installations use for the ukrainian defense industry, air bases, infrastructure, missile, and ammunition manufacturing sites. both sides and claiming that respective successes in cost. however, the situation on the ground remains fluid. quick look, now i have some other news from around the world. former us president and a republican candidate. donald trump has threatened mass deportations of haitian immigrants if he's elected in november. you specifically referred to the ohio town

where he falsely claims that haitian immigrants were eating people's pets. since then, the town has received bomb threats. president joe biden called on trump to stop with the rhetoric. as the leader of mexico's and a low, a cartel has pleaded not guilty to drug trafficking and murder conspiracy. charges in new york is my of my, of somebody that faces 17 felony counts. he was arrested in july in texas. us law enforcement had sought him for more than 2 decades. brazil's dispute with taking billionaire you on musk is heating up. one of results supreme court justices order that fines of almost $3000000.00 be seized from bank accounts. belonging to the social media platform x and the satellite internet provider star link, both owned by mosque. the same supreme court justices who had passed a ruling going to 2 weeks ago, banning x in brazil all over the king. and that dispute has also gotten personal

view on mosque at one point, even referring to the supreme court just as alexandra dom more ice as darth vader. so what is the battle really about earlier? i put that question to brazil studies, professor fabio just silva. and i would say that this value is really about a 1000000000 there. who is the owner of a large social media company, refusing to follow a basic orders from the bridget into this area. so it's, it's much more than, you know, a disagreement between the company and at a, just the system is it's, it's a, it's become a matter of advertising of sovereignty. and, and just walk us through a little bit of what this legal battle has been about. it started with the charges of this information that it actually is started, because the x was border to remove some posts in to suspend some profiles that were

engaged in a deluxe and campaign, a gas, some a brazilian public officials, the police officers, were conducting an investigation about some wrong duties done by a former president, both on i and x and mosque refused to, to comply with those orders because they, you know, basically have argue that, that they stand up for freedom of speech and that they don't see the points of banning any type of speech on social media, even if that kind of speech is threatening to add this safe to this case of the public official. now supreme court justice engine morris went so far as to freeze the bank accounts of acts and star link. is that standard and, and how necessary was that it's it's a quite severe measure, of course. um, but the reason why he did that was because of musk and actually ex

west fines for not complying with the previous borders. and after that must remove the uh, you know, all the representatives of the company from brazil. and so that basically the company stopped responding to the president of this sherry, and there was nobody to pay for defiance or to be responsible for that fines. so he orders the freezing of the assets of x as well as star league when it comes to star league it's, it's a complicated question because it's a different legal entity than x. but star link is one of the investors of facts in technically, this is possible under proceeding law. there's a provision in prison and load it authorizes the disregarding of the legal entity and the intro to share, to go after the owners of the company. if they understand that the company has become just a shell for illegal acts. now let's talk just briefly if you can about the reactions in brazil,

we're actually seeing some protesters siding with you on mosque to that's correct. because the what the most has done is to make his platform a partisan platform. he has developed a very strong ties with a brazilian fire rides, with the supporters of former present valuables on adults, some of whom have been convicted for participation in an attempted cool. in january 8, uh, 2023. and so, you know, there's, there's, they're using this momentum pets, jenna being generated by the clash between most and more dice to partial pressure. the chord fries this and pressure parliament to give an amnesty to some of those people who are convicted into, i guess we can deal for the, of the courts. so that the once keep up with its investigations against both on the in some military officers and bought the those events as well. professor fabio,
