the we will not allow the opponents of the revolution. mercenaries were sold out to the u. s. government to provoke destabilization. cuba accuses washington of inciting, massive demonstrations across the country. thousands have taken to the streets in protest at an economic crisis. and what they are calling the governments for handling of the coven pandemic. reviving the spirit of neo nazi segregation in europe and russia takes a shot at france over coven vaccine. that as a senior official tells europe to reject the jobs being offered by moscow, and beijing and starvation with will eclipse the devastation of the pandemic. and that is, according to oxfam, which says every single minute 11 people die from hunger around the world. we get inside from the charity

ah, broadcasting direct from our studios market. this is our to international. i'm john thomas. certain going to have you with us. now, cuba as president has washed out and washington accusing it of stirring up mass protests across the country. thousands have flooded the streets of the caribbean nation over the economic crisis exacerbated by the pandemic. the anti government movement is being called the largest in 30 years. the the

the protest cathy, tough year for cuba, the economy has plunged 11 percent hurt by the code in crisis and american sanctions. but government supporters also hit the streets and cube as president asked more to come out in correspondence for our sister channel. our 2 spanish reports now from havana i'm from intel demonstrations in supported the cuban government being held around the country. and you can see national flags, portraits of the historical leader of the cuban revolution. fidel castro, and slogans for him. and president miguel diaz canal. these demonstrations, some large, other smaller like this one taking place not only in havana, but in other parts of cuba. the protest appeared to have been organized on social media present, diaz canal appeared to the country on television. let's listen to an excerpt from his speech fare bottom while we are addressing revolutionaries who may have become entangled. addressing cubans who may have some concerns, but we will not allow the opponents of the revolution. mercenaries were sold out to

the u. s. government sold out to the empire, receiving money from subversive agencies to provoke destabilization. and there will be a response from the revolutionaries. and therefore, we call upon all the revolutionaries of the country, all the communists to come out in the places where these provocations are being carried out today. and from now on the demo that is noteworthy that american flags could be seen at some demonstrations against the government. many said this was proof of the involvement in the us in organizing such actions. many find it old, the, even though the u. s. is blockading cuba. people are still waving american flags. despite this, the marches in support of the government took place in different parts of the city . we spoke with several people who came out to defend the government and heard what they think about the protests. but for the lower level, of course improvements are needed, but we'll, we'll do it in a different way. and we will not police the americans. imperialism wants nothing good for us and it won't be better if the triumph here stabilized. they won't get

it. they will never get it. this is the 3 to fidel wrote, and d. s. can now, since the started a panoramic cuba has something from a serious crisis, not only in health care, but also in economics, a lack of food and an energy crisis due to a breakdown of some power plant. all of this, according to analysts, has provided fertile ground for the groups, the people organizing protests against the government. the u. s, which has a long standing embargo against the island to set it back to the people's rights to rally and says that claims in the field. the protests are a grievous mistake. however, president biden has found support for protesters and what he called their decades of economic suffering. we stand with the cuban people and the clarion cool for freedom and relief from the tragic grip of the pandemic. and from the decades of repression and economic suffering to which they have been subjected by cuba, also, or a tarion regime, cuba says the us embargo cost at 9000000000 dollars last year alone,

and is hurting its ability to fight the pandemic america calls its sanctions tools for democracy, dr. francisco domingos, head of the latin american studies at middlesex university, says washington's gone to astonishing links to split. the country says from cuban dean. the united states to cuba has been stopped and ended in discussing sanctions and emissions being taken by the companies station and the tourism from coming into the top of the woman that the united a blockading treasury conjugate. and the relation you feel, and then they're like being a massive energy from cuba. so be great combination and double the united states is the thing we gain according go to something in the region, $14000000.00 to people and you know,

because you're good. well, you've been doing it for many years, maureen, these groups and going to create for a nation in the country would be better. and we'll be more news video on the pages, you know, very good for anybody computer. reviving the spirit of neo nazi segregation in europe. that's how russia has slammed caused by frances europe minister for use states to not to use act seems developed in russia and china. we can do france for such just criminal restatements by its high ranking representative. which of the spirit of neo nazi segregation in europe, it is not for the french foreign ministry to dictate the country. some people were jeff, they should be vaccinated with obviously the french foreign ministry. curtain as the country has not been able to develop its own vaccine, we sympathize with francis failure. the vast majority of european countries

recognize only these 4 vaccines as the france and only 3 countries are differently . i regret the greased as this. the ministers regret referred to athens letting and tourists who have had russian or chinese shots. greece also requires a kobe to test for entry, but it is far from the only european country to green light. moscow's wouldn't agree, in addition to the likes of hungry and flow vakio. some marino has been using it for months and now has almost 0 new cases to lance. that medical journal recently published a study on the elderly people there, which showed few side effects in those who got shot. there were also no safety concerns or if a tardies reported, great politicians are discriminating against russia as job makes no sense. i think that we should avoid the daily course, any kind of vaccine the nationalism vaccine must see that as a public who in the global and in my understanding, the biggest challenge is how to vaccine all citizens. and there was not, there was,

you know, just seem to be on campus where we can afford to have, i don't own vaccine and say for that vaccine agencies. if people are in africa, the people in india. exactly because of the damages of law. but we will never be safe if only as the seasons of the let's see, that better off county will be getting into the rest will be left to the funding. i must stress that, let's say that greece was to accept the french position. that would be, that would be a little bit ridiculous from the point of view of that hunger. marian's or having sputnik vaccinations. so we would allow on gary and was put nic vaccination coming into greece. free preview without any, without any other test discriminating on russians coming in from moscow. and with

the with put the facts in nation, which does make sense. south africa has deployed the army to fight writers who have looted shops, blocked major roads and set buildings on fire for a 4th day against the jailing of the former president. the well, yes we do. you from alexander township, just outside of the big central business district, with a change of looting from the purchases that have begun this past friday. this is all in reaction to the cross duration of former president jacob, some say unjustly. and it's led to the army being deployed by the current president,

several that deployment of the national defense for is supposedly going to a policing calling the violence and unrest that has led to extensive leasing. as you can see behind me, yet. all of the stuff along the speaker being broken into an instant and the contents stolen as i speak to you now about 200 meters up this road. this several 100 pages that have begun reaching the little equipment and positions that are left in tools that are yet to touch exactly what is going to happen next. and so that, that remains unclear with a deployment of african national defense for this is unprecedented in democratic of africa. we wait with baited to see whether or not it has an impact that the government is waiting for under the purchase. but to be seen whether or not they have the same effect as the police have been having for the last several days, your friends are going up again. this is you are determined to continue with this

under util. the demands of the release of the former president jacob jacobs, whom was imprisoned for contempt of court. after missing an inquiry into theft of state assets, while in power, supporters save the unprecedented conviction of a former leader is a witch hunt by his successor. 6 people have been killed and more than 200 arrested in connection with the riots and looting. sarah gone had a v strategic engagement at the institute of race relations. says the rallies badly damaged the ruling party. this, this was happening now. is a, it is probably do the most damage to the, to the ruling party because it will take the various sections up against each other . more and more. we suspect that they are elements who are close to jacob's demon who would have organized the beginning approaches like this. but in a, in a, in period a, and they make a very,

very high unemployment. you don't have to do much to bring people out onto the street. hunger pandemic could turn out to be worse than the impact of coven. that's the warning from ox m. it says, 11 people are dying of starvation globally every minute while 155000000 people are apparently facing crisis levels of food insecurity. the charity has also published a series of herring, 1st hand accounts of women struggling to feed their children. i can secure a good quality 14 for my children. therefore i feel guilty and i feel that no matter how much i'm trying, i still need to do more. i had to look for solutions can go hungry, but the boy cannot even dared. i dare it. oh lord, to go back for food because i couldn't into your hunger. it hurts me amount to videos on what to do with children are not eating properly. and i sometimes feel like i'm not treating them boil enough. most of the time we have little to nothing

to eat. i struggle to get my children to sleep at night. they ask for food and i tried to distract. i'm telling them stories until they're asleep. then i look at them and praying for a better life until i get stolen by sleep. sham listed climate change on the conflicts and the economic impact of the krona virus pandemic. as the driving forces behind the crisis, we've locked downs and the closure of borders and businesses only making matters worse for those already disadvantaged. but the head of humanitarian policy at oxford told us, there are other factors as well. after understand what it actually means to people on the ground, i mean it, it's extraordinarily serious. whereas knowing that hunger figures were increasing, we predicted last year that the tension is going to get worse. but to see how bad it's gotten, i think yes, this is genuinely shocking. we have to make sure that people are able to get vaccine. so it's not just going to the rich countries, because we have to also restart the economies in puerto countries. for me, there are 3 key things we, after immediately firstly on sci fi and piece. the 2nd is we have to stop warring

policies from blocking to monetary. and we cannot have a situation where parties are using hunger as a weapon of war. and finally, a cause funding funding is crucial to get people to help they need. and i think we also need to look at the kind of safety net that's, that some of the rich countries have where the poor countries turned off the world's population has no access to social security know, safety. so when they see a shock like this, there's just no way to recover from overcoming the crisis. it through vaccination is also an issue as the un secretary general warrens about the gap between developed and developing nations in access to vaccine. ok, sam's health policy advisor told our team going underground that vaccine nationalism is a major problem. you know, we need a 1000000000 dice. and the g 7 off adult actually less than a 1000000000 in donations with no edge. and in terms of when the nations are going to be made. and the reality is that donations are sticking needed. now, because we are seeing that breaks rising from the country,

but they're not going to fix this crisis to be back. we actually need the g 7 countries to back the listing of the patients on the back in the science and know how can be shed throughout. well, we can get more qualified manufacturers making them grandma production. that's the only way that we're going to get back to back to make everybody and this we haven't seen a stream back being inequality. that's not only put in lives at risk in many of the poor countries in the well. but he's actually continuing to be at a track for all of the fighting is intensifying enough. galveston as the taliban that makes major territorial gains. official say that over the weekend, local security forces repelled in assault by the group on a key northern province at the border with tucker, weakest on the pentagon says it's watching developments with concern as us troops continue their rapid withdraw from the country. the escalating situation is

dragging the nation further into a humanitarian crisis with couple calling on europe. 2 suspended deportations of african migrants for 3 months meanwhile, and can extend itself thousands have been forced to flee the telephone offensive village were surrounded by the taliban. there is nothing we can do to help them capture our homes. we have been displaced. we are faced in such just a moment. my children live by the road. what should we do? as a mom, several years in a government should help us. our children are hungry and thirsty. our homes are under the control of the taliban and we cannot go there. i lost my cow and a calf my home and all my good. then is what i am suffering your lot. if you can see will live in this tent, even though i have a home, i have been displaced. there is a war in our village and the area where i live is under the control of the taliban . and 300 families have been displaced. let's take

a look at another war torn country that has been down a similar path that somalia us troops arrived there in the late 2 thousands to fight terrorism and ended up staying for nearly 15 years. however, by the time they pulled out at the start of this year, it would be difficult to say any instability had actually been achieved. only this weekend, an explosion in the capital, mogadishu reportedly killed 9 and injured 8 others. it was the 2nd major blast in the city this month. the shabba extremist group claimed responsibility with more on whether i somalian scenario could now be repeated in afghanistan. here's what i got to do with commentary to malia wasn't a libya or a rock. it wasn't a prosperous nation that the us invaded and left a wreck. it was a poor country to begin with, made that much poor by far and help in the form of bombs and weapons. no somalia is much more like of janice done with insurgents. the extra bob running much of the

country. the don't underestimate the, the small, that tough and they're motivated. i show bob according to the b, b. c, collect almost as much in taxes as the government, even government officials pay. i shall bob to be left alone years and years of us as strikes and grades have failed to stop them. so why not try again? the united states has been involved in somalia for decades and it is very involved in africa for longer than that. this is a product of the poor planning in the pentagon. this is the product of the

factional, little within the pentagon. it's no secret that at the highest levels of us war planning, that there are different political tendencies. there are different political factions. and so one day, one faction will have the upper hand. and the next day, another fax will have the upper hand. and you see that being played out in east africa, where we were told the states was pulling out of that part of the world. and now it appears there on the way back after 3 decades of unfair, fully and painfully beating its head against the very solid somalian war. the united states is apparently considering another round. last year you may remember truck pulled most jewish troops out of somalia while they're potentially going back in the us, sending troops back to somalia. are you putting more forces in the hell? how precisely is the us going to be changing its security posture on the continent?

carla, i think you can understand why we wouldn't necessarily detail, but the true movements are forced presence in advance, particularly when we're talking about a counterterrorism threat. there's really no denying that our repositioning, fairly sudden repositioning out of somalia. earlier this year has introduced new layers of risk and complexity to our mission there. many people claim that the u. s. last and of ghana thought i would disagree. they went into kiera l cod and they leave with a written promise from the taliban. never to let the setup shopping of gas on again . sure they failed, but the whole nation building thing, but i'll car is gone. somalia, he's very different in somalia, the warlords, that rule, much of the country, the actual bob, their sworn, the wild card to us has tried everything. they've tried training somalian to fight

. i shall, bob, they've tried bombing the militants, they've paid the others to bottom. the insurgents sponsored invasions by countries that neighbor samaria, nothing's work. how many decades will the us leave at these star before? come? what may it just gives up? meanwhile, india has evacuated. it's diplomats and other workers from it's kinda hard consulate. that is taliban forces enter the outskirts of afghanistan, 2nd to biggest city and aircraft was deployed to pull out some 50 staff members and local employees will continue to operate the facility. as taliban troops entered the city, 16 people were killed and 57 injured. with the authorities warning the numbers of casualties could rise in the political commentator who yeah, g n p says the developments are particularly disturbing for his country. india has a lot of stake, enough, kindest on them,

because in the are very much involved in the reconstruction of up kind of sun bright from 2001. when the american forces invaded the country, not only bought one to rebuild a brutal theocracy that did that brand name, the country from 996 to 2001 of course in debt. spend a lot of money in afghanistan, but it also balden the changes enough kind of sun also emboldens a lot, randy and yet the group you did shifted. it's based on trying to reach out to the part of the bottle between i've got a sudden bucket, especially next to the table. dozens of people are dead and several injured after a fire broke out on monday at a coated isolation ward in an iraqi hospital in the city of not syria. officials say, at least at 36 people on respirators, died as the inferno rapidly spread through the building,

the toll is expected to rise as patients and visitors remain missing. of course, we will give you more details on that tragic story. as they come into our room, homegrown violence extremism. that's what the f b i intends to fight with a call for americans to snitch on their own family members in case they quote witness signs of mobilization to violence. the suggestion has left plenty to satisfied. yes. report friends and family members to the government. like you see in totalitarian regimes, 1984 wasn't meant to be your orgs instruction manual. who do a report f b i extremism to my grand, my kids with bacon fat, which is a recipe for heart disease. i hope you guys and i use that term loosely take her down. mike has been reading and he came on web pages and follows a bunch of dogs doing stupid things. instagram pages, i am concerned the content. his idea follows the f. b, i, director,

is testimony in the aftermath of january capitol hill, right. he then called it an example of domestic terrorism. an issue that had been, quote, metastasize in the country for years. the 6th of january incidents saw donald trump supporters storm the capital in the wake of his defeat in the 2020 presidential election. over 500 people have since been arrested in relation to that attack with some turned in by their own family and colleagues. or from all of this less cross live now to justin robert young, host of the politics, politics, politics, podcast. first, welcome to r t. and what do you make of the f b? i call it justified or appropriate in some way? it's certainly consistent with what they've done since september 11th in 2000. and one from the patriot act on forward they've consistently look to crisis is to try to expand their own policing tools,

many of which were no longer held wishes for them. and now they have yet another reason to do it, and that is a big, gigantic, loud, politically defensive moment in america's history. where there are clear people that have been across the line and are now being legally held accountable for it. but the call for domestic terrorism has not only been seized on by the f b, i will be doing this for a while, but also of course, the by the ministration which can use this as a cudgel politically. well, you mentioned by the ministration. last month they unveiled the policy, the national strategy for countering domestic terrorism. calling it a projects that should unite all americans. on the contrary, how does snitching on your own family support a message of unity? you know, i think that the biggest problem that we have with this entire debate is much like a lot of our modern political arguments were completely talking past each other in

terms of what one side of either these issues really believe. so exactly as you laid it out. number one, yes, nobody is for domestic terrorism. nobody is for the committing of mass atrocities on least a large scale. but of course, the definition of what is domestic terrorism, the definition more controversially, of what foam meant. domestic, tara terrorism is very much up for debate, and how much speech or political lied meant factors into that is something that is obviously vexing over here and what you bring up the idea of domestic terrorism. and if we cross, the trump administration and the by the administration is kind of a uniting theme, is the issue of domestic terrorism as big of a problem as the government is making it out. and have there been any signs of the threat increasing since the capitol hill, ryan? you know, as, as much as i am indeed a busy body. i don't know if i myself can measure exactly the rise of domestic

terrorism. i do believe that dislike many issues. not only in america, but also worldwide is subject to the great magnification of the internet. if you look at a lot of these statistics, both from the domestic terrorism side, but also in, that's like actual crime that are committed. but also a conspiracy theories which has become yet another controversial element of our modern society. the rates of them happening are consistent. what is not consistent is our coverage of them and the fact that the internet makes everything permanent there unless you were somebody that had access even in early internet days to alexis next account. you couldn't look up the newspaper coverage, assuming that that was extensive of some of these issues that happened. now, not only are they recordable via social media, but they are among the most popular content on the site. and so therefore, we get

a heightened expression of exactly how much of this is reality pair that with the fact that you have a media in economic freefall who was looking for any and everything that can bring them attention. and i do think you have an over representation, not only of the events themselves, but also of the threat cars because alright, just and robert young, a host of the politics, politics, politics, podcast. hope we can have you on that more in the future. because i think we could just get this for hours upon and thanks for being with our international have a great night. you are watching r t international. thanks for being with us. i'll be back with you in about 31 and a half minutes with another look at your news. stay with us. the. ah, ah ah,

ah ah, ah. hello and welcome to cross talk. we're all things considered on peter as well as the american foreign policy blob struggles to come determine with washington, the peak and ganesh than others are thinking about the future. how will this country interact with the world and the region also an update on julian a, sorry, this, travis, b and crime against humanity continues. i discussed these issues and more. i'm joined by my guess. better gaming in plymouth . he's to enter turned bounder of the 21st century wire dot com and,

and also we have one diesel and he is a professor at the university of southeastern norway as well as the author of the new book re power politics in the 4th industrial revolution or a gentleman cross off rules and pick that means you can jump in anytime you want. i always appreciate it 3. ok. let's go to how slippers, glenn, you know, american media is obsessed about the withdrawal of afghanistan. how it got to this point who's to blame. but very few people actually thinking about the future except for maybe the drifters that want to somehow profit from the post more and bio having an aircraft outside the country prepared to leap in if they, if necessarily, i mean this is, these are the people that don't want this the end, however, a lot of things are happening and it's been and they're not getting a lot of coverage. just recently the taliban visited russia. the russians obviously are very concerned. what's going to happen next because the we have because then in respect to span.
