5:03 am
they're getting too small for him every 6 to 8 months, they get to small because he's growing up man, and we don't have the money to change them. life of kurdistan is too hard. he can't go to school or play in the playground. other children insult him because he has a disability. what's your favorite game to play? love? of course you would like to go and play football outside. what were these prosthesis legs? he can't fall according to polish estimates. as many as 4000 people to remain at the border and around 10000 more, i believe to be elsewhere. and by the roofs heading toward the frontier to try and enter the european union. many migrants of the camp to say to that they are now desperately lacking basic supplies. while on tuesday, a humanitarian organizations did manage to deliver some supplies, including food, water, warm clothes, and also blankets and more aid is expected to arrive later today. meanwhile,

5:06 am
your cars, ears, and valuable. thank years to get my. yes it's right now. we don't have anything constant roscoe putting the questions, i will put a russian volunteers and the red cross are now on the ground again helping to hand that food supplies there with law on the situation. his konstantin, once more hundreds of migrants have gathered to get free food delivered by val, russian volunteers and the local red cross. this is much needed help for these refugees. a stuck here at the polish avella rues border. now we can see that kids, they are served a 1st to get milk and some cookies. this is much needed help for these. up for her migrant says they're running extremely low on supplies. you know, for the past few days, these people have been on a poor, died made up of junk food or potatoes, cooked on campfires, but even these can stocks are almost gone. now. cold is another problem for these migrants, most of which came from the middle east temperatures now drop below 0 degrees
5:07 am
celsius at night. and these people have to sleep right on the freezing ground, not just man, but also women and children cam fires. let's have a look at the scene here, and you can see lot of cam fires. they are now never stopped burning because david cam crucial for these people's survival, of course, cold and food deprivation is an extremely dangerous mix. recently we came across a boy who was barely responsive, his mother told us he couldn't get up since this morning and refused to eat. she's worried sick. that her son my die at this camp. and you know, the problem is that there are no medics on side. unfortunately, these refugees are at the end of their robes. they don't want to stay in bella rows but all and doesn't let them into the european union, refusing to consider their asylum applications. at some point, almost everyone at the scamp lined up along the barbed wire fence over there, and people chanted open the border in
5:08 am
a desperate attempt to bring attention to their plight. and i didn't take any immediate effect though, as the polish security forces stood still and just idly looked at these people through the layers of barbed wire. constantine roscoe, proposing now with this conditions have deteriorated at the border. a group of well prize winners has appealed to even institutions to take action. in an open letter published on tuesday, they said that europe has no right to take their eyes of the tragedy, demanding the polish authorities to we're like journalists and human rights organizations to enter the area from the you side. so let's get more in this time to speak with correspondence. charlotte davinsky. charlotte just take us through then this latest development. so that's why it comes the z european council president show michelle is in war. so to have talked with the polish prime minister in a show of solidarity over what's happening at the moment on the border with poland
5:09 am
with this migrant crisis. now this is very different to what we've seen over the past few weeks and months where there has been massive criticism from your institutions. again, poland does this mean this argument to the rule of law and judicial reforms in the country? but it does seem as if the you now is founding together as it sees this crisis appearing once more on its frontiers, this time on its eastern borders. no. what's the accusation here from the you that it's being orchestrated by bell roofs in response to the functions that are being put in place by the you. but there are also accusations from other members in the, including germany, on poland itself that this is being destroyed by a wide range of countries and just valerie safe, acute russia and turkey of also being involved in a bid to what they've described is trying to stabilize the, you know,
5:10 am
that has been slightly rejected with moscow turning round and saying what's happening here is that western countries are evading, trying to evade their responsibility for that christ. if you heard in that report there about the freezing temperatures, we moving into the wind to the night so longer and out in the ground. the idea that clinton tells he means that that area, that borderline will be frozen solid in the next few weeks. if it's not already, and there are people desperate for food, water, and shelter, they're not as if humanitarian crisis plays out as desperate people wait to try and enter into the, into the e u. they are being treated like they all political ping pong that has been humanitarian assistance, able to get through, but it's not very much. and that's why these poor noble prize winners have written this open, let it now demanding that humanitarian organizations have regular access. to help out,
5:11 am
the polish government imposed the state of emergency and the buddhist trip. when poland and ballers on the basis of which to refuse the excess of sick and dying in the border area to doctors and paramedics, and prevented the media from accessing the tragedy that was going on there. recall on the 8 organizations that can provide medical and legal assistance to be allowed to enter the border area. poland has been securing its board for some time. it's been putting up barbed wire fences. it's been installing more surveillance cameras to see what's going on and it sent more than 10000 troops and police officers to try ensure it's frontiers. and now it appears that the e u, which at the moment, is currently fining poland 1000000 euros every day for its refusal to back down on the few dish reforms. adams's withholding billions of yours in coven recovery funds appears that it's ready to open the right,
5:12 am
a new blank check for poland in a paid to sure that barrier that infrastructure on the board of that security east in front fee is just a month ago that you said that was out of the question. now it seems that that is very much back on the table in the me time. the other thing that's being discussed is sanctions, more sanctions are due to be next week. that's what we're hearing from plastic sources. not just against bella, ruth, but also we understand that this could be extended to russian and turkish airline carriers that operate from middle eastern countries and fly in 2 minutes. this situation really seems like it's rapidly deteriorating. certainly it's ok. thanks charlotte. charlotte davinsky reporting that she mentioned with the ongoing migrant crisis on the bell, russian postpone or both words between men and the european union is in full swing
5:13 am
both sides keys in each other, a feeling the situation report to munificence you imposed sanctions against me against battle russians, you went for a hybrid war against battle, race, look at the media, economics and politics. and now they've got whole the security. it's a hybrid war, and you want me to protect you from migrants. among other things. we are facing a brutal hybrid attach on your board. us banners. you strip the nation's migrants distress. seen it too, and shook into way. meanwhile, moscow says that western countries, including poland, if only themselves, to blame for the sparling crisis and emphasize their role in conflicts in the middle east. that is to blame game unravels between european states and valerie of poland. now even tracking russia into the dispute. because donna has more, the refugee crisis has now been tormenting the e u for over half
5:14 am
a decade. and finally, the evil engineer behind it has been unmasked and its well dar, russia, russia has its own far reaching goals. undoubtedly, this is the stabilization of the situation in the u. an attempt to permanently destabilized central and eastern europe. undoubtedly, these are russia strategic goals. it wants to have an instrument of influence and blackmail over europe on the free world, acting with someone else's hands. officials in warsaw stop. just short of elaborating exactly what role moscow is playing in the calamity on the poland and bella ros border states that are, you know, both not russia. they also choose to amid historical details of how polaroid helped turn iraq from which many of the migrants are fleeing now into the mess. it now is now polish politicians. here kids look a shank and means of making problems for iraqi migrants should recall how iraq was
5:15 am
destroyed with the most active participation of marcel. yeah, some of the thousands of migrants on the border may very well. remember the sounds of polish boots marching past their homes, a memory hardly nostalgic for those who are now freezing on the board in makeshift tents and scraping for food. but also is steering the conversation in a different direction. sanctions. we will stand for the strengthening of sanctions and the next european council meeting. we will propose not only strengthening sanctions in the current situation that is expanded. the number of people who do not have the right to enter the u. and we will also propose far reaching economic sanctions. well, this is a state and somewhat expected from poland. it's a nation, consistently deaf to migrants please. this time though, it's message is being echoed much louder by both the us and the european commission . as long as the regime and belarus refuses to spect, international obligations and commitments undermines the peace and security of
5:16 am
europe and continues to repress and abuse. people seeking nothing more than to live in freedom. we will continue to pressure lucas ranko and will not lessen our calls for accountability. beller was my stop put in people's lives at risk. i call for approval of extended sanctions, possible sanctions, and 3rd country airlines involved. we also want to prevent the humanitarian crisis and ensure safe returns. it's a message which is in stark contrast to previous statements, even those by the same person to those who cannot go back or stay home, we have to offer alternatives. this means 1st that we must offer legal and safe routes globally organized by us to those who need our protection. the commission stands ready to look into the necessary budget means to support e member states who will step up and help her settle. refugees, europe and greece. a work in hand in hand for the people on the greek islands. we
5:17 am
signed an agreement to day for a new center unless was by september 2021. we will bring decent conditions to migrants and refugees, and support local communities. when migrant stormed the borders of the you through greece, italy, spain, turkey, it's all good, and every member state has to chin and help out proportionately. but when they choose an ally of russia for well the same purposes, then unleash the sanctions. they use policy is double standard because if we ask ourselves the question, where does the roots lie of ms. latest crisis. the answer is worse. sanctions and arms exploring the you always present themselves itself is a liberal union that respects human rights. but what we observe now has already happened early you external warriors where people be to help food supplies,
5:18 am
water and medical assistance, but people and, and their dignity came 2nd. and the rule of the problem is definitely not bel rooms . this issue began with european union and the united states and nato supported wars in syria, iraq, a wonderful many other countries. when just over a year ago, poland took a hard line, anti migrant stone, so it seemed there was no mending of this idea. logical chasm between warsaw and brussels well turns out nothings easier when you find a common enemy. now, after harrowing revelations of torture in the guantanamo bay detention facility lever heard from the internationally recognized lawyer nancy hollander. she described the importance of a recent trial which saw a form i see a detainee gave the 1st public testimony of abuse at the hands of american agents all into hopes that the case de staying on the moral fiber of america will set
5:19 am
a precedent for other victims held in american secret jails around the world and see hollander as a high powered american criminal defense lawyer best known representing to guantanamo bay detainees as well as the whistle blow. chelsea manning charge in the us with the leak of classified data and whose release she won. nancy was betrayed by the actress. jodie foster too, in the movie, the mauritania, and about to get my detainees held without being charged when her recent interview without he's going underground. she expanded on the case of magic khan, a former prisoner of the c. i a claims to have been brutally treated. first have a detainee is as testified on on torture, you have the quote, a stain on the moral fiber of america. what kind of torture and tortures would know being used at the supreme court and in the abs away the case, of course was used in the senate committees investigation. what did it constitute? well that that was the other significant may be more significant part in this case
5:20 am
. is that his testimony was public and the generally nobody's been allowed to say what happened to them in the black science. um they're, they're what they say what my client has said to me. abraham a mouse re, is classified. they've never been allowed to explain what their feelings are. this is the 1st time that everyone got to hear, ah, in anywhere what these horrible things that were done. did them go back and look at the 16th century england and you'll know what happened to him. basically just horrific and that's what happened to the others in the black sites also. i mean it's so nothing has happened. i mean, this is just in the past few days. nothing has happened. that senate ripple which is the cia of legal torture in 2014. and he says when he says clearly,
5:21 am
the more he cooperated, the more he was tortured. that's what he says. yes, the whole thing is so is so too horrible. the senate report makes public some of what happened to our clients, but not everything. and now more is coming out. and now i believe it will be more and more difficult for the government of the united states to keep secret what happened to the other people. the 911 people and my client, and of course there are 26 men in guantanamo who never been charged with any crime who have not pleaded guilty. they're just there as if some kind of permanent detention which is totally anathema to the united states. at a recent hearing at the guantanamo bay naval base, khan gave a detailed account of his peace while he was in u. s. prisons in pakistan,
5:22 am
afghanistan and in an unnamed 3rd country. he claims he was subjected to mister treatment and physical torture on the daily basis and was allegedly deprived of sleep and offered food to that contained pieces of metal and stones. earlier, magic con pleaded guilty to links with al qaeda. and his sins cooperated. b, c. u. s authorities, he's a small part of his testimony. the u. s. gods dragged me so that my face would hit each step of a short staircase. i was brought to a room, still hooded, an american god put his foot on my neck and i started to choke for air. a doctor was present and said, listen, i'm a doctor. can you breathe? i choked out the word. no. and he had the guard remove his foot or 7 members if the trial jury asked for clemency for magic con, even after finding him guilty, nancy hollander again does believe that the move may signal a reversal in his case. he cooperated. he made a plea deal, but that was quite
5:23 am
a few years ago. and then it took a long time for him to be sentenced. and he was sentenced by 8 members of the military military officers in marines, air force, navy officers, and a he the. ready based on what his plea was and what he was charged with, their obligation was to sentence him to at least 25 years 25 to i don't remember the top and 40. they sentenced him to 26 years. but then at the request of his defense counsel, ah, who asked that they asked for clemency. they did. and 7 of the 8 wrote a hand written magnificent letter. saying this was a stain on america. he came, they didn't quite say he was tortured,
5:24 am
but they said he what, how his treatment came close to the torture and other countries that we don't permit. ah, this is horrible and he should have clemency. ah, is quite an astounding letter. i also he hasn't. he, his plea deal is secret, so we don't really know what it is and, but he could be released soon. nancy hollander there also represents another glance hanniman detainee reach down to r t as part of our on heard voices, project mohammed, a old sly. he, he was never charged with any crime, spent 14 years behind bars. he gave us his story and he can read it without it of course. but he's in portugal have raided nearly a 100 homes across the country as part of an investigation into smuggling fortunes
5:25 am
from the central african republic. a portuguese soldiers serving as un peacekeepers are suspected of trafficking, diamonds, gold, and drugs back into europe with more story. his more ghastly f, the central african republic is the 2nd poorest country on earth, a cold unify as misery, poverty, violence, and sexual abuse. and those sent to help to alleviate the misery and up bathing in it. what is it issue at the moment? is the possibility to some of the soldiers who took part in the national, detached, falls in the ca are we used as couriers and the trafficking of diamonds, gold and narcotics. the sum up since at least 2019 portuguese troops have been allegedly smuggling diamonds. gold and even drugs out of c a r and into europe. they would use military aircraft to or they checks and
5:26 am
they would then load the presumably millions in alice had cash this they would do by night, by day that buell smiles dancing and parading his the un lavish them with medals. a salute visible unless visible sacrifice, that its mumbled contention has made in the course of your good. that ceremony was held after the un had been notified what some of those shiny soldiers had been up to. then again, the united nations hasn't been at its best in the central african republic far from it, rape for starters. hardly a year goes by without another scandal involving un peacekeepers and a multitude of rape victims, including under age girls in a country where armed groups routinely prey and civilians. peacekeepers should be
5:27 am
protectors, not predators. peacekeepers to rape, exploit or kill should not simply be sent home with no commitment to justice. the problem is, if you start prosecuting un troops, you'd have to stop jailing bureaucrats as well. because while the grunts frolic and misbehave on the ground, the paper pushes up top, pull off the most extraordinary nonsense, like leasing land for a military base from a company which profited off of blood diamonds. the un has paid more than half a $1000000.00 to the company on its own sanctions lists for allegedly fuel and the conflict and central african republic threw the sale of blood diamonds. so now that it's all out there, what are they do? they blame russians were calling the central african republic government to end all relationships with private military and security personnel, particularly the wagner group. no joke. a group of you are experts who, by the way,
5:28 am
don't speak for the un, want the central african republic to kick out russian instructors. united states has gone further blaming private military contractors. russians for all sorts of very ironic ills. brashness injuries, engaging human rights abuses of civilians, extract steep costs in payments and mineral concessions, and deprived local citizens of critical any debts. resources. a comment that has aged very badly given recent revelations, namely, an alleged fondness for smuggling, diamonds gold and drugs among portuguese troops. making the millions while half the population starves, but their grievances that russian p. m. c's, bother and harass un peacekeepers. preventing them from doing what they want. which in my book is probably a good thing. now that we've learned what it is that you had troops get up to what
5:29 am
we see now in the central african republic with these serious, incredible allegations with regard to portuguese troops, is that it's a continuation of a past that many of us thought had disappear after portugal was forcibly ousted from africa a some decades ago a but alas, the exploitation contin obviously is discrediting to the peacekeeping mission. it's clear that there is a certain dysfunction with regard to united nations. and you see the evidence, i'm afraid to say in the central african republic, the security council needs to be on top of this. and certainly there needs to be serious reform of these missions. because increasingly, they seem to be doing as much damage as they are doing good. and that's not the
5:30 am
way the united nations, as opposed to work or a gas there. they're there with that reports that brings up to date as havanese is looking down to get thy plenty stories to ada website. and you can find that at r t dot com ah ah, hazard financials vital guys. when customers go buy, you reduce the price. now well, reduce the lower that undergrad and that was good for food market. is that good for the global economy? as a korea professional sport is much tougher on some than others. mission with the euro admired by everybody. so why would somebody believe me? i was just a little girl to price upgrade to.
