ah, broadcasting lie from russia's capital. this is our teens or national. i'm your host donald quarter. welcome to the program. now the expansion of nato rushes relations with ukraine. these were some of the topics touched upon by russian president vladimir putin in a wide, raging interview on russian state television. on wednesday, it comes the head of a much anticipated summit with the american president joe biden. next week, earlier, my colleagues union o'neill and more ad gazda of discussed the interview here in the studio. ukraine was the central focus of this interview. one of one of the themes that a lot of attention and concern was devoted to was this new indigenous peoples law that is sitting in the holes of the ukrainian government in a draft version so far,

but essentially a little background very briefly. this rule guarantees the protection of legal protection for the various ethnicities indigenous as they say. if nice, if you see you quit, the ukrainian government specified what those necessities are, those ukrainians come jugs and cried me and thought us so those ethnicities will be protected by the law. they will be represented on a government level, so they will, they will be protected against attacks, racially motivated, religiously motivated, culturally motivated, the tax, their cultural identity will be protected by the government, their values, their symbols, icons, you know, anything that identifies them will be protected. everyone out, not so much nice that i've seen this draft and one of the articles and it said that native admitted cannot be discriminated against the general legal principle that whatever is not prohibited illegal. does that mean non native ethnicities can be

discriminated against? that includes russians, but also romanians pulled from gary. and so it's absolutely unacceptable. and it's out of line with basic international human law. it's not for everyone but promotions. it has a special significance. the thing is millions of people living in ukraine identifies russian. that's according to the sense of conduct during the soviet era, and i don't think much has changed since then. a no more want to be a 2nd class citizen that will lead to hundreds of thousands, or maybe even millions of people leaving ukraine or changing the nation out in legal documents. it will be a huge blow to russian people in general. and we certainly cannot just ignore that . well, one of the chief concerns that we have with, with this new drop flow is that it is reminiscent of the practices and methods of nazi germany, which is dividing people based on that genetic makeup, that adversity affording some groups, protection and perhaps prosecuting others. and vladimir putin here said the kid with me of mixed heritage with mixed pads. what is,

what is he to choose as he's got a rushing father and a ukrainian mother? does he choose russian who ukrainians? because he'll be afforded protections with one and with the other. he will be discriminated again with nato expansion. marat's expanded on as well, by flooding or putting in the interview where him, vladimir putin said that now the argument for nato expansion, strengthening nasal is rushes aggressive behavior. but let me put in said, look at the decades gone the last 2 decades. they were 2 cycles of nato expansion, while russia and nato were friends, while they were friendly with each other. and here, let me put and also remembered cuba because cuba, when the soviet union station nuclear weapons, there was a huge red line for the united states. russia was eventually remove those nuclear weapons. but somehow, when the united states and they to encroach on russia closer and closer and closer to russia, borders, somehow they do see that as being of concern to russia. vladimir putin says that it

eases nato's expansion and it's infrastructure. getting closer to us is borders. it's next really important issue for the security of all washington for country. it has a practical significance for why is that when pulling the romania became nato member states, they quickly agreed to americans, missile defense systems being stationed on the territory for the launch pads used for those systems could also be used for offensive weaponry, which can reach central russia, including moscow within a very short time frame 15 minutes. imagine if ukraine were to become a nato member. it would then take to 10 minutes. if such missiles with stations stay near her of ordinary patrols to reach moscow. is that the red line for us or not? no russia has been attack enough times to either for nuclear weapons and for odds of an international coalition. busy encroaching, moving close, inclusive, russia to start winging, alarm bells, and on the snow. let me know who talks about ukraine's prospect of joining nathan

obsession. really objectively speaking in last several years here. he remarked on one incident, several days ago when barton and the president spoke by phone, they issued very different press statements at the end of the bite and said that they talked about corruption and guaranteeing you credit to integrity. ukraine added the biking also allegedly said he was open to offering you created a roadmap to join. you create a, get a lot of sort of raised eyebrows. the american express the radiance to remove that and said, we said nothing of the sort not incident caused a lot of a lot of jokes in russia in the experts, circles in the press like me and said that he for one wasn't laughing because we don't know what was in that phone call, and the behavior of ukraine and nato is such that it suggests that ukraine potentially will, could be offered,

need membership in needed. so let me put and says the lose. those are red line for russia that need to infrastructure and perhaps even nuclear weapons moving into ukraine for russia. that is an absolute red line. the austrian police say they've arrested 81 people as part of a global sting operation, led by the united states. the f b i is claiming to have caught more than 800 criminals worldwide, including arms and drug dealers by tricking them into using an encrypted app. aside from austria, raids have taken place in more than a dozen countries, including australia, where federal police worked alongside us intelligence services. the app called a non was run by the f. b i. security forces apparently got senior figures in organized crime, to use and promoted. and allowed the intelligence agency to monitor communications between gangs, the f b i legal attache in austria hailed the sting as

a major success. this operation demonstrates how the f, b, i and our international law enforcement partners can come together to successfully combat transnational organized crime. and drug trafficking activity partnerships are the key to law enforcement. success has no one country or agency can tackle this problem alone. the operation actually almost broke down earlier this year, one anonymous blogger, posted an article, calling on people to stop using the app over safety concerns then his blog was shut down. meanwhile, australian officials have defended the legality of intercepting those private messages. the country is police commissioner rece kershawn says it's the 1st time a law has been used to intercept telecommunications. however, former c, i a analyst, john curia curiosity, told us the way the authorities disguised public apps as being encrypted and secure raises serious issues. i think we should all just assume that our

communications, even our encrypted communications, are being monitored pretty much all communications apps can be used by law enforcement or by intelligent services to spy. on average, people in these organizations like an essay and g c, h, q, and cia there, they're working on things that we we can only imagine we can only fantasize about. we have no idea the scope of the technology that they have access to. and so i don't think it's ever safe for the average person. the reason that they say they do it is that it to keep us safe. it's to allow law enforcement to collect information on possible terrorist attacks or criminal activities. but that's not the way the constitution works, all platforms are compromised, and that's why we should always be so careful in our private communications

therapy. and parliament has officially approved a cobit 19 digital certificate scheme. it will allow travelers to cross borders within the e u without quarantine and additional testing. the certificates will work for both e, you citizens and foreign nationals. this digital file can also be issued in paper form and indicates if a person has had a negative p. c, r test vaccine, or has recently recovered from the corona virus. remember, states have until july 1st to implement this system with several countries having already started. now, while the system is being rolled out, there are still major concerns about documents being forged. the latest case, a nurse in france has been caught, giving people fake certificates, fake certificates at an official vaccination center, or charlotte davinsky reports from paris. it's a worrying discovery which raises questions about how wide spread this practice may

be a nurse who is working here at mt. cooper vaccination center has been suspended of the being accused of giving people full certificate, showing that they had the job. one member of so who worked with her said that she had witnessed dozens of suspicious appointments i observed for 2 or 3 weeks. she said to the 2 other nurses, some people will arrive and there for me. she led them to her cubicle. normally there are 2 nurses per cubicle with a screen for privacy. but this time she asked her colleague to go out. this happened with at least 10 people a day, but in reality she wasn't vaccination. these people they left with the fraudulent q, r code, presumably to go abroad. that she was doing with colleague saying that there was no evidence that any of the basic steps to carry out an injection had in fact been carried out. usually people who get vaccinated have this skin disinfected with an

orange product. the doctor wants to check whether these people had been vaccinated and there was no trace of the disinfectant. no di know, dressing. the nurse had been working at this center since january. she has now been suspended with the hospital saying that her actions were quickly spotted. but it remains unclear just how many of these false coup it's certificates may have been issued, and whether or not the nurse received money for providing them. now the fake covey vaccine and test certificate market is huge, having grown exponentially during the health pandemic, they're all more than $1200.00 vendors in the world. vendors were supplying from all the countries in europe, spain, france, germany, switzerland, sweden, as well as mexico and destroyer after vaccinations. the next step was the

certificates and negative tests. many of those aiming to bypass the system a said to be the racks is the vendors have mainly been identified on the web. so d that a nurse working in a could read vaccination center could also be running. a racket is particularly concerning. it's done acceptable, which she did to she certificates and boots are this risk rather she booked a nurse. shouldn't handout fake specific gates to put everyone in danger that we missed. she mentioned, well i think it's all about the money. i think it's an isolated case. first of all, we don't really know for sure whether it's true or not, it's not been confirmed to the fact yet this woman hasn't been taken to court or anything yet. so i don't really know. if it turns out to be true, it's shocking for short. they can vaccinations, endangered the lives of other people she did, we've yes, you know, it's clear she shouldn't have done that. there is no doubt about that. i find it

shocking because we're talking about healthcare walker's pressure. i'm sorry, drill it. it won't solve the problem. and such things happen. we need everyone to get to knock you later. i'm a to to and i was fighting to get the accent. this undermines the safety of all the people. yes, of course those people should go to prison. and you see, i think it's unacceptable for us to do such a thing to act like that towards others towards those who've been vaccinated. and those who have not, you just don't do that. even more worrying is that this was on the justice front is about to use restrictions even more as the controversial health class kicks in. the only deer is that those who've been vaccinated will receive a certificate like this, which contains one of these queue or codes. those queue code to be essential for accessing large events. so even showing that you've been in late for travel in

return for perhaps a simpler journey and possibly new quarantine on arrival. so the idea leave key will codes could be obtained and the false pretenses from a nurse working in a registered vaccine center could make a mockery of the whole system. that's how can you trust what's real and what fake show like even sky or t. paris sanitation workers in paris have stormed a district mayor's office during a city wide strike the there protesting labor reforms which would both reduce annual leave and increased working hours. according to the trade unions, the mayor of the district has called the demonstration totally unacceptable. fierce anti government protests have become a frequent site during the manual mat,

crohn's presidency, and during his latest public appearance, one demonstrator got a little too close for comfort. the we discussed the recent unrest in france with political commentator and elizabeth moved a it's not just essentially resistant to change that to gum. it's also the, the sort of during the war between the mayor of paris and he that go on the president mccormick wants to streamline, define into the country. he voted this over crisis. the curve is quite a much more difficult because we spent so much this is actually for right now, he started his presidential campaign for 2022. and he still has a fairly important rump of people who will support and he's very pro rising and divisive. and anyway, coming up in the program as protests between palestinians and israeli forces

refused to die down. we have the story of a critically ill teenage palestinian boy. he caught up in the middle of the conflict that story and more after the short break. ah, the here word, our annual summer solution where we know not a problem, but on the solution. this is your media a reflection of reality in a world transformed what will make you feel safer type relation, whole community. you going the right way for you being that somewhere

which direction? what is truth watches in a world corrupted? you need to defend the join us. in the depths all remained in the shallows, ah, in the moon. ah, we'll come back to the program. now a new report has revealed that the u. s. accounted for over half of global spending on nuclear weapons. in 2020, it was published by international organization pushing for disarmament. washington splurged $37400000000.00 on nukes last year. that's more than the combined total of

the 8 other nuclear powers and represent 5 percent of americans, total military expenditures. on average, the u. s. a. spending almost $71000.00 every minute on nuclear weapons. and the corona virus pandemic has done nothing to reduce the global appetite for nukes either last year or the world's 9 nuclear power. spent $1400000000.00 more on them as compared with 2019 co founder of the stop the war coalition. chris 9 and told us why he believes the hike comes as no surprise is a reordering of the world's system right now. when moving from a system, a situation in which the u. s. was massively dominant. what was called a unit power world, where us the u. s, has the unchallenged, please minute the world to one in which its power is being challenged, both but, but mainly by china bowl said via the emerging economies in,

in important regions like russia, like and so on. so this is kind of reordering of the world system and any moment of the reordering is a very dangerous moment. it's a moment when particular local conflicts can suddenly take on an international significance. i think in those circumstances, you know, it's not surprising to me that we were seeing a kind of a re armaments or an accelerating armament of the nuclear powers. pensions are simmering on the israeli palestinian border on tuesday. there was a confrontation between soldiers and locals in the west bank. town of beta, people threw rocks at israeli settlements in anger. it was the 3rd consecutive day of classes with idea of forces who responded with tear gas. over the years, numerous palestinians have been detained in similar confrontations without charge

or trial. among them, a 17 year old boy suffering from a rare auto immune disease. paula slayer has a story than 350 california prison, as a county held in his reigning administrative detention. this means that they have not stood trials, nor faced charges. many of them are children. among nacley is a 17 year old palestinian boy with a wasted in november 2025 and charged with throwing stones that he was released off the $22.00 days. he was been real wasted, taken from his house in the early hours of january this year and had been held in administrative detention everson about over john. he remained free for the 40 days, then he was arrested again while he was at home. he was arrested while he was sleeping at 2 or 3 am the stone throwing charges. they're a big lie made up by those who are trying to free my child. if a mob has committed a crime, we have

a right to know what it is. only his father would talk to his mother is too distraught. amal is critically ill and suffer from chronic to immune neuro muscular illness. his treatment requires ongoing medical intervention and uninterrupted doses of medication. his family is concerned, he's getting neither amola, he had a luncheon that was removed, but then he experienced complications. he needs to continuously take his medication and sometimes he gets injections in hospital. he also constantly has appointment for specialists, but then the prison, they refused to let them attend and said they will provide him with their own medication. sometimes they give him his medicines on time and sometimes they don't do some. so we'll blame these really occupies for any complications at them. all might experience because he needs specialist a medical care. we are also trying with a lawyer to get a medical committee involved him in white advocating for palestinian children are urging for his release. they say administrative detention is abusive,

especially when it comes to children who are mostly a wasted patrolling stone. the little problem is with the way by which is, is using administrative detention against the ballasting and in general. and children and particulars is resort heavily on at the district of detention despite the fact that it would be used just and that limited and expect exceptional versus admin sort of detention actually is based on secret information . there is no clear evidence of submitted to the court. it's the general was ation of being a threat to the security of the state of the air and the area just last month, a mouth administrative detention. what extended values rating, military court for another 4 months. it's well argued that gives him time to gather evidence without him out other palestinian children being held. being able to carry out a tech in the interim,

who have no choice but to restore law and order via determined use of force. there are nationalists elements here while breaking the law in fact, disturbing the framework of the state of israel. so in the face of such a threat, it is possible to use administrative detentions under the administrative detention order. it's all can imprison tennis thing in the 6 months at a time, which can be extended indefinitely. but at the mouth, health situation worse than that could be a defense te tell of is a group of lawmakers in the united states are calling for a boycott of next year's winter olympics in beijing. democratic representative tom mallette no sky also submitted a resolution to congress accusing china of genocide against the weaker minority. the house of representatives urges the international olympic committee to consider the dell and pic charges principles of solidarity and non discrimination. hard to

reconcile with holding the 2022 went against the country, the government to which stands credibly accused of perpetrating crimes against humanity in genocide against ethnic and religious minorities. while an ascii claims the campaign to boycott the 2022 games is a coordinated effort by legislators in multiple democratic countries. although it's so far and clear which nations are involved in that effort. and in the resolution, he accuses china of multiple human rights violations against a weaker muslims, including mass incarceration of millions and concentration camps and the forced sterilization of women. the chinese government has not yet commented on that us initiative, but it's repeatedly dismissed. any threats of a winter olympics boycott and has always denied violating the rights of weaker muslims inching jang province economics. professor benjamin child thinks the allegations being made against china are not based. in reality. you are right now

is choosing china of genocide and when she knows i have ever seen, you know, size of the population, which is still growing rapidly. the less than me that did not emphasize enough that the publisher st. john, people actually growing rapidly. how can we see that genocide? i was in seen jaya, i had know many people from st. john, i know a lot of people in shanghai, hoping syndrome. i know, i think that the with what, what the rest is accusing china of about the weakest. if it show of hypocrisy and was tended and international olympic committee as a non governmental organization is supposed to be strictly politically neutral at all times, a boy called to have been shown to negatively impact athletes. while not effectively addressing global issues. judging from history, similar practices in the past have never completed that. so fish and narrow minded political goals and the politicize in sports is and welcoming for many countries.

moscow court has outlawed organizations founded by alex seen of all me. the court ruled that the russian opposition figures political network was quote, extremist, as artillio drank or reports, the russian prosecutors have been highlighting the extreme as nature as they are putting it. the are going to zation, lead and founded by opposition activists elect saying, evolving according to the authorities, the so called novalis h q's. and also the anti corruption funds that are labeled as foreign agents in this country were regularly behind on law for demonstration rallies and other unsanctioned gatherings that often lead to unrest and even violent in some cases. so these are the key reasons why the fund is being fully banned in this

country. earlier members of the anti corruption funds, electing of all these allies. and now that they will wrapping up the activity of their network and its present form because of the enormous pressure that they were experiencing from the rushing state, elect st. and evolving himself is currently serving a 3 year sentence for violating the terms of a suspended sentence. that's something that he received earlier as a result of a fraud case. western governments have long been accusing moscow of being after mister, an evolving, and the organizations that he has been in charge of for political reasons. and this led to serious cracks in moscow relations with b, u and the west for example. but the russian side maintain, that the legal action against the prominent opposition figure is fully within the wash and legal framework. and is only related to the crimes that have been committed by like seen evolving himself and his political network. you can get more

ah, well, come a la harris makes their 1st foreign trip as vice president. and let's be kind and say it didn't go so well. she made a very controversial statement to the people of guatemala and didn't do much better in a sit down interview with nbc lester holt. we'll talk about it with our panel and a judge in california has overturned the states ban on assault weapons, a band that went into effect over 30 years ago. we'll talk to a resident of the golden state who was instrumental in making that decision happen . barack obama, the former president of united states, is added again attacking conservative media. this time he did it on a very liberal media network, and he use the same interview to push a big lie about donald trump and to talk about u f. o.
