stinks of corruption. both are in the program. a year on from the u. s. capitol hill, riots in the u. s. and still seems more divided than ever. many outraged by vice president pamela harris, comparing the events of january the 6th to $911.00 and pearl hop in. well, it may be the end of the work week for the news continues to pour in here at asi, international welcome to your stores. so the cash president has given a shoot to kill order against rioters branding them. terrorists, now it comes off the days of antique government on rest. as we understand dozens of protesters and at least 18 police have died since the chaos are ruptured after a new year. fuel price hike, president of chi if he claims that $20000.00 extremists attack the country's largest city l mat. well,
8:02 am
my staff will complete it. anti terrorist operation will destroy those who do not surrender. i have given the order to open fire and kill terrorists without warning . hundreds of civilians and military personnel have been injured and killed anonymity due to the actions of terrorists. these were well coordinated actions. the terrorists exhibited combat readiness and bestier cruelty. it looks like they were trained all the demands of the people expressed in a peaceful manner were heard any more about the you can hear it for yourself. gunfire reported in the center of our as around a 100 people have been detained since friday morning. a riotous of now report really being cleared from the city center. however, let's show you what the streets about my he looked like right now. the city, of course, has been the focal point of the riots. on wednesday, the mayor's office was overrun, unbundle down your security forces, say that back in control. well, it's been
8:03 am
a tomato star of the year for the central asian country. aside when the $26.00 protesters killed, thousands are injured, and among the 18 dead officers, one was apparently bareheaded, but that's according to officials. meantime, and tara operation remains in full swing authority, say, order has largely been restored in all regions of the country. however, it took about $4000.00 the rest of the nation wide to get there. not a deal with the chaos cause exxon is requested help from its allies under the collective security treaty organization. it's a military block of 6 former soviet states. russia was 1st to respond, but peacekeepers from bella rosa, now also on the ground. armenia has sent 100 soldiers, and so jake astonished the ladies to send peacekeepers to the region. the mission comprises around 2 and a half 1000 troops. and according to russia, the defense ministry, they've so far helped local forces to secure the country's biggest airport in l. matty washington. meantime, there was actually costing doubt on the peacekeepers. right to be in the castle.
8:04 am
were closely monitoring reports that the collective security treaty organization had dispatched its collective peacekeeping forces to kazakstan. we have questions about the nature of this request and whether it has it was a legitimate invitation or not. or we don't know at this point while the russian foreign ministry has already reacted spokeswoman murray as a heart of a has said that, failing to understand something is often presented by washington as an official position and his or what the united states can't understand. according to the russian foreign ministry that the collective security treaty organization is a military alliance, akin to nato, the comparison is of course, a bit of a stretch. but there are some parallels because both are military blocks and the collective security treaty organization. it unites under its umbrella of 6 nations, possibly states including russia, bowers and some other countries. and they have an obligation to come to each other's aid. if an act of aggression is committed against one of the member states,
8:05 am
again, much like nato, they would have to come for help. they would have to send a be a troops, weapons, and you're all, well, some other ammunition or equipment. this is literally written down in the mission statement of this military alliance. that's why the president of cas extent reached out to his allies when he said that right now, international terrorist groups are operating within his country was there. she carries their season, buildings and infrastructure, including sites, housing, firearms. these terrace gangs are essentially international. they've undergone cirrus training abroad. their attack on catholic stone must be viewed as an act of aggression. and it seems that some western media outlets seem to miss the point as well. many singled out russia completely emitting the fact that it not only moscow, but all literally, all other member states of this military block are sending peacekeepers as well. that's another thing. these are peacekeeping forces that are sending their
8:06 am
officially just the troops. and in fact, at the head, over this military block, the head of the collective security treaty organization has clarified, time and time again that these troops said that these peacekeepers are not there to fight, but rather to defend, to protect some key infrastructure objects. city exhausted, all of these insinuations about our troops, like we're going to break up demonstrations are not true. that's what the cause at places for. they will do their job and our job is slightly different. some rumors about an intervention occupation and other things started to spread. it's just stupid. i once again state. this is the c s t o countries move to support kazakhstan and such a difficult period. this is the main reason for decision. there's no other reason for it. as soon as the situation stabilizes, the operation will be suspended on the troops will be pulled out. so it's unpleasant 1st to hear that we allegedly seized an opportunity. it's fake. c, s t o countries show willingness and sincerity in helping kazakstan get through
8:07 am
such a trouble period. and this morning marks the 1st night that the peacekeeping forces have spent inside of kazakhstan and this night, well, there was a bit of a lull in the fighting. it wasn't as intensified as if the past 48 hours, but according to the reports that we're hearing from the ground and sions are flaring up again. we discussed the presence of peacekeepers and washington's position on them with author nicholas j as davies. the united states made home with this sort of t r approach to the well that in spite of the united states having dropped more than 300000 bond with the file to other countries in the last 20 years. and then the united states being the one that has to change in systematically in faded and fond of the country during that time. the u. s. prioritizes the information war m, which it always cost. so the force of the reason the democracy
8:08 am
before since the jet him i see by contrast, likes to frame its enemy as somehow illegitimate. meanwhile, checkpoint 3 set up to enforce the few in the countries capital. notice south ton, as we understand, there are 6 of them on major author is heading out to the city. of the situation has been relatively calm in the capital. however, it's been out of now to red zone on alleged coven situation. and the protesting has its don 1st broke out on sunday, author spike in the price of liquified gas, but after a priced cap was lifted. now this has since been re imposed by the president and the government has resigned over the crisis just quickly. now a recap of a, how all this unfolded, ah, ah,
8:09 am
a
8:10 am
group of unidentified people attack the mere tv and radio studios and l mati. the attackers destroy the tv production complex and workplaces of journals. ah, let's get some context of the situation that cost on is the biggest stop the central asian republics sharing bolts with both russia and china. it's a key part of beijing's belt and rhode initiatives are clearly china would like to see a comcast on the world's 9th biggest country has exxon has boss natural resources. in fact, it's our number 15 in the world when it comes to global oil producers. kazakhstan is also the forefront of a certain economic trans, perhaps worth making note here. it's the world sec largest bit coin mining hub. and amid the protests, the crypto currency store a sharp decline in price dropping nearly 7 percent since tuesday. because it's don
8:11 am
is also the world's leading uranium export, or the security collapse has had a significant impact on the price of radioactive heavy metal. it's 8 percent in a matter of days. so we spoke with economist a hillary ingram who says the mayhem informally stable context on is a red flag before an investors and potentially also that of an international security risk more political issues and the economic one. but obviously it must be a big concern because the amounts of civil disruption that is taking part in that country. i mean it's widespread and very excited to be very severe. so i think that we possibly secured to confirm with its very, very important that uranium is available not clearly with a significant disruption that is going on in catholic thumb. that is certainly in the short run in some doubt supplies will be that i think it will make foreign
8:12 am
investors quite nervous. i think they will be looking for more stable economy. they may have been very stable now. i mean, it's a huge, great country. it graphically, very centrally. it's got very important like china. but what is taking place in my country at the minute, i think will be foreign companies from actually putting investments. and i think they'll be looking elsewhere. well then we'll just financially benefiting in one way because they share price that they'll trade in the u. s. companies have gone up . whereas in prices go down though that the company is actually involved in uranium production elsewhere or, or might be making finance guy. and i think that will continue the british prime minister is once again having to fend off corruption allegations offers emerged, he withheld revealing text messages from a watchdog,
8:13 am
probing sleaze in them. a bar johnson asked a party don't f, a more money for luxury renovation to his apartment, and he seems to suggest he'll do political fe was return. well, as rivals say, it's smacks of cronyism. it's pretend believable that bars johnson didn't know who was paying for his luxury flatter innovations. if so, that is corruption, plain and simple. by attempting to hide the truth, boris john santa minds, his own office it's thinks of the was kind of conservative cronyism with berries. johnson, simon, they're happy to scratch his donna's back to get his flat to stop in return. while that is indeed the case of cause new year new me hasn't exactly defined bar as johnson's 10 year this year, whatsoever. in fact, is embroiled in fresh accusations of tory sleeves and corruption even fools in the prime minister to give a quote, sincere and humble apology for crucial messages relating to the downing street flat
8:14 am
refurbishment of cause. you remember last year or johnson was merged to seek the cash to pay for this rebound. of course, prime ministers are allowed up to $30000.00 pounds every single year. if a force johnson spent well over a 100000 pounds, now it seems like the very man that coughed up the halls of this cash with a tory donor who at the very same time, was seeking to see a great exhibition, which is essentially a showcase of british innovation and the great empire, now these text messages dated back to november of 2020 where bars johnson was trying to get the approval of a top interior designer to transform this flag which was being described at the time as a bit of a tit. now, despite apologizing, barnes johnson says he doesn't recall off to you for this cash, and that he didn't disclose any of this evidence to the electoral commission investigating the reef up because the text was just don't exist on his phone
8:15 am
anymore. well, obviously the opposition is crying foul, but this story really seems to change, minute by minute force. johnson initially said that he actually paid for this revamp, then some time later you said any loans that were related to the downing street refurbishment would of course be declared in due course. but then at the end of last year or the johnson insisted that the u. k is not corrupt by genuinely believe that the u. k is not remotely a corrupt country that i, nor do i believe that our institution are corrupt and, and i think it's a very, very important to say that well, this of course isn't the 1st tory party scandal. of course, last year we saw a november investigation found that tory don't as have been offered seats in the house of lords than they were please allocations that many 3 m p 's were having 2nd jobs not to mention of course, december was daft, and these downing street christmas party allegations,
8:16 am
but in relation to this particular mass force, johnson has indeed been cleared of breaching any ministerial codes, downing street. so this is normal practice for the prime minister to receive project proposal, but many people really question how normal is it to receive conversations about project proposals. while at the very same time, the prime minister is seeking a huge sum of money. or we can always speak with a landed opec, a former m. p for the liberal democrats. joining us live from london. great to be with you today. there have been so many slee scandals already involving johnson. none of them though, have actually brought him down so far. is this potentially the smoking gun? i'd say it, and here's why stacy consecutive said to me, the normal rules don't seem to apply devoris johnson. and i was doubtful about it. i thought he may have to resign of the party scandal that your reporters just summarized. but lo and behold, he still here, the reason seems to be that people expect
8:17 am
a lower standard of behavior from doris johnson than they would from say, david cameron or a teresa mate. i'm as a result, they're. busy simply saying, oh, it's just forrest. now, i do think he's honorable. i still think that if the may elections this year, the local elections go badly than the one thing that boris johnson brings to the conservative party has gone, namely electoral success. so i think that he's being watched, particularly by something called the 1922 committee, that's the back bench committee in the conservatives. and if he doesn't deliver the goods and votes and ballot boxes, then it'll have to go. but at the moment, he doesn't seem to have done enough to lose his job, which is strange because he's telling us that he's a prime minister who doesn't even remember asking for money for the refurbishment of dining street that calls into question. how focus did he or i guess you call him the question his memory, but also i guess perhaps cool and the question, the memory of the nation because it seems today that people don't have much of an attention span when it comes to potential scandals here. it's interesting,
8:18 am
a moment ago, you mentioned bars, johnson's predisposes. i mean, it's hard to imagine this kind of thing going on 20, even years ago. it has politics there. has it become so corrupt and if so, how did it get to this point? i would say the politics has opportunities up to this take. it always has pain and the public have been cynical. but his a contrast for you, for my own experience, had no end of trouble because i've tried to get to pay for the state to pay for an expensive television completely within the rules. but it was denied. i didn't get the money for the television, but i never had the end of it now. boris is getting tens of thousands of pounds, which he claims he forgot he sent texts to ask for. and the public seems cynical enough to go well whether these tell you the truth or not that's just for us. so it's a fine line that the corruption, i think, is still more related to the fact that bar as johnson and his crew were telling everybody else to lockdown while they manifestly weren't doing it themselves. now that is a life and death issue, whereas wall paper and painting the,
8:19 am
the floor of the ceilings of a house are not well, it adds up to cynicism. though you have to take a step back from it and say, what messages the prominence to giving to the rest of the world. u. k. loves to preach to other countries about probity and politics. and yet we have massive amounts of money which look linked to favors where the bars have meant said or not all that begins to look quite grubby. and the tories can ill afford to be accused of being the nasty body again or perhaps. so it's just the tip of the iceberg, and there are so many headaches. the u. k is facing these days, a soaring inflation bricks, it custom checks and kicking in. of course, the covert crisis as well, is tori sleeves, making it even more difficult to navigate these challenges. does not really here. there are some really serious problem facing britain bracks. it hasn't really read it's had in the media. for example, there's a huge problem with visas. and the relocation industry, the association of education professionals have made it quite clear that there's
8:20 am
a huge problem, getting people into this country, even the women to be the go to country in the prospects environment. but all of that is, is pushed off the headlines. we talk about bars as wallpaper potential favors parties and downing street, and that's where the irony lies. the trivial is replacing the really serious problems and direct answer to your question. we have an economic nightmare. we have a debt mountain and we have big problems with relationships with europe. but because we're talking about the small stuff, boris gets away with problems in the big area. but sooner or later that 2nd set will come back to bite. and if that happens before may, then the nightmare scenario for bars will happen. he'll punch in the pulse, they'll do bobby in the local elections. then we'll get that letter from the 1922 committee. and i look to see what that says. lambert, opec, a former employee of the liberal democrats joining us live here on our scene to national a great pleasure. thanks so much. my pleasure. well,
8:21 am
it's good to have with us for the program today here on our tea. it is one year on now from the us capitol hill riots. and joe biden says it was all caused by quote, a web of lies spun by his predecessor, notably the american leader got through his entire anniversary speech without once mentioning donald trump by name. for the 1st time in our history, president had not just lost an election. he tried to prevent the peaceful transfer of power. the former president, united states of america, has created and spread a web of lies about the 2020 election. meanwhile, us vice president, kamala harris, is facing a barrage of criticism for her remarks on january 6 anniversary. believe it or not, she compared the attack on capitol hill to $911.00 and pearl harbor tragedies that killed thousands comma la compared jan. 6 to the attack on pearl harbor and the
8:22 am
twin towers fear beating, in truth twisting at its finest, president biden, and vice president harris speeches to day. we're in effort to resurrect a failed presidency. more than marking the anniversary of a dark day in american history. today, vice president made history as a national disgrace. nearly 3000 people died on 911 and about 2400 were killed at the attack of pearl harbor for blatant disregard for the legitimacy of those tragedies by correlating them to january 6. there's reprehensible biden did promise the unity about one year ago, but a new pulse addressing. now, more than half of merican states that national divisions are worse than before. they also believe they will be a similar attack on the capital within the next few years. so we discussed the biden's anniversary speech with the political analyst, they perkins, everything joe biden brings to the mix causes more harm than good. every week he gets new record lows and ratings for this or that issue. he actually is doing what
8:23 am
trump said he was doing. he's slowly dismantling and destroying the country by virtue of policies that don't work. january 6 is being compared to pearl harbor and $911.00 because they want it to be remembered eternally because it's an instance of trumps. of orders, gathering and shouting support for trump and opposition to democrats. and because democrats can't win legitimate arguments with policy positions. the next thing they have to do with silence and intimidate lee opposition. so 2021 was a pretty bad urine. a number of levels obviously, but not least when it comes to that of international relations. the traditional diplomatic etiquette apparently going straight out the window a correspondent, polis. leah takes a look back at the year. that was when it comes to crises and conflicts. politicians usually say they prefer diplomacy, but in the year that was we thought diplomacy failing even allies. the apple of discord in 2021 was a trilateral security agreement between the united states,
8:24 am
australia and the united kingdom. to provide camera with a nuclear submarine fleet, but it ignored one small detail. australia already has a submarine agreement with font. it's really a stop in the back. a relationship of trust have been built with australia and this trust has been betrayed side and made things worse by claiming that frank was aware of the alliance and the new deal. while emanuel cron was furious and accused australia of lying to him, i do say when, when we have respect, you have to be true and you have to behave in line and consistently with the value you can be like. i don't think, i know the conflict shows something many already knew. western countries are not united, not even against a common enemy. the beijing olympics is another saw in everyone's eyes as the u. s. u. k. and candidate seemingly support
8:25 am
a diplomatic boycott. us diplomatic or official representation would treat these games as business as usual in the face of the p. r. c's agree, just human rights abuses and atrocities. and john, and we simply can't do that, that will be effectively diplomatic because of the, there will be a diplomatic voice out of the, of the wind through the big invasion. no ministers are expected to attend. i do not think that supporting voice all sensible that remains the policy of the government chinese to move as manipulation, but shrugged it off as unlikely to cause too much trouble. in fact, no one would care about whether these people come or not and it has no impact whatsoever on the beijing winter olympics to be successfully out. not only you allies agreed with the u. s. decision to keep government officials away from the olympics, making some american politicians angry. i am deeply concerned that our allies seem less determined than we are to stop china from using the olympics as
8:26 am
a huge propaganda when and in fact, china's using it in all kinds of subtle ways with influencers and other means to spread does information. i'm hopeful that perhaps our allies will be stronger, but european politicians seem to have another view. this boy thought. sports is a world apart that needs to be protected from political interference. if not, things can get out of control and it could end up killing all of the competition. for many countries. it's more important to maintain relations with china than to express on a devotee with the united states raising questions as to the integrity of the waste . the you will face as many different internal diplomatic stand offs, not least of all between neighbors. like the notorious case in turkey, where the e u commission president had no way to sit in
8:27 am
a room. i felt hurt and i shall to known as a woman and as a european other crisis were more serious than southgate and included a split within the e. u. like when brussels was unsatisfied with polish legislation, wanting in new laws to be superior, warsaw was angry. more and more you member states are seeing that there should be a limit to competencies. what the european union can decide on and what the polish state can decide on, but the, you see things differently. we consider that this case low breached the general principles of autonomy, primacy effectiveness and uniform application of union low. and the binding effects of rulings of the court of justice. and it's not just about poland. hungary seems to be at odds with in you too. awful one or more your awkward mind. consequently, following the decision of the constitutional court,
8:28 am
we decided that we will not do anything to change the way the border is protected. we will maintain the existing regime even if the european court ordered us to change it. although poland and hungary have different ways of challenging the union, it's the idea of undermining the supremacy and unity of the union that has brussels most wide. russia is another example of diplomacy gone wrong, except that in this case the u. s. and e, you are acting together. russia is worried that nato is expanding and building up relations with the ukraine and acting aggressively despite promises not to bluetooth but those really in case our western colleagues continue to push their clearly aggressive line. we will respond with the appropriate military and technical measures. we will provide to the tough response to any unfriendly moves. and i want to stress that we have the full right to do this. the u. s. senate allies are threatening harsh actions. i think that is
8:29 am
a very clear signal that we are poised to move in a dramatic way if wash it does undertake for their military aggression against ukraine. so fund submarine disputes and factored alliances and fears of an all out conflict to the encroachment of sports on politics. please plenty of diplomatic debris for politicians to sift through and try to amend as we enter the new year policy or r t pearl. and we'll as fast on into a busy friday already. fear world wide headlines. thanks for joining us. for this hour newscast here, lie from moscow and archie international, the whole full docket. ready to go in about half an hour's time when we return. ah ellis, with a robot must obey the orders given by human beings,
8:30 am
except where such orders at conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. and the point obviously is to race trust rather than fear i would like to take on various jobs with artificial intelligence, real summoning with ah, the robot must protect its own existence with what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race move is on often very dramatic and development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't.
