6:08 pm
restore order and contain bandits and terrorists, as they call armed looters. even the airport isn't entirely safe to that end. there are endless drills exercises for every situation ah, security situation, in our much near the airport still precarious trooper arriving by the day they're being drilled, exercising regularly, to prevent infiltration of or whatever they're guarding, but by om gangs, or, or mobs who have seized weapons from various military arsenals. they're also practicing finding any potential info to infiltrate as an containing them. the presence of c su, forces in kazakhstan is temporary, some say a month, some say to,
6:09 pm
but talk of pulling out now is premature as so much to be done. life whether these cuba isn't easy, especially the 1st few days, can be, can be rough, the endless, but throws no, not enough supplies into a crazy amount of work to be done in position to be made secure. but as things stand, order is slowly returning to our marquee, and there is confidence that the unrest that has gripped the country can be bought for hide very soon. but in reaction abroad to the deployment there, the u. s. secretary of state fears it will now be difficult to get russian peacekeepers to leave cause it's done with more on that and development on the ground. it was done off reports from because a capital while the country he is still reeling from the consequences of some very violent protests,
6:10 pm
which mostly engulfed the largest city and the former capital over al marti. basically, their protest very quickly escalated into marauding into even terrorist attacks. in fact, the government is talking about 6 wave of those as it is right now in the middle of an anti terror operation. as a result, and 4000 people have been detained because the government's response has been quite heavy handed as well. and there are dozens of dead dozens of killed people on both sides as a result. now, helping out the catholic authorities here is a, more than $3000.00 strong peacekeeping force in international one operating under the umbrella of the collective security treaty organization, a military alliance that includes kazakstan, russia, and some for other posts of yet are nations. and well, this international peacekeeping presence, it caught the eye of the united states secretary of state antony blinking. ah, has singled out russia and voiced following concerns about russian troops present
6:11 pm
in cassock stand. it would seem to me that are the cause like authorities and government certainly have the capacity to deal appropriately or with her with protests or to do so in a way that respects the rights of protestors while maintaining order. so it's not clear why they feel the need for any outside assistance. so we're trying to learn more about it. i think one lesson recent history is that her, once are russians are in your house, sometimes very difficult to get them to leave. russia has already denounced such claim spokeswoman for the russian foreign minister. amory, as a heart of i has said that such presence such peacekeeping presence, bead rushes, or any other country that is part of the collective security treaty organization. basically, it is legitimate, especially given that cassock stand requested the aid officially, u. s. secretary of state and blinkin has in a typically boorish manner, jokes about the tragic events in kazakhstan,
6:12 pm
if antony blink and loves history lesson so much, then let him keep in mind the following. when there are americans in your house, it can be difficult to stay alive, let alone not be robbed or raped. native americans, koreans, vietnamese iraqis, panamanians, yugoslavs, libyans, syrians, and many other unfortunate people can say a lot about this. while the president of kazakhstan to kai of he has admitted effectively that the country security forces will most likely be unable to contain this absolute security fall out. and that's why he reached out officially to his allies. in fact, the estimate that the president has given as to how many terrorists are in kaz, extend right now, or at least how many were here about 2 days ago. his estimate was 20000 people. again, that's according to the president. but he has said that basically their response will be very hard line. they were beating and killing policemen and young soldiers
6:13 pm
putting fire had administered buildings, looting private premises and shops, killing secular citizens raping young women. in my basic view, no talks with the terrorists. we must kill them while we're still hearing reports of gunfire coming out of the city of alma t as the anti terrorist operation is still ongoing them. but at the same time, little by little, we're also getting reports that order is being restored. their former us marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter, explained to us why he thinks the u. s. isn't that kin to keep russian peacekeepers in kazakhstan? it's pure hypocrisy, but it's so par for the course when it comes to not just the biden administration, but frankly, speaking, any american administration in the post cold war era, you know, the united states continues to be better than somebody like vladimir putin took over from a personally, boris yeltsin, i mean the 1990 s,
6:14 pm
where the ideal for the united states, a compliant russia was replaced by, you know, a stronger leader who sought to assert, you know, russian sovereignty either can be no doubt to what russia's doing because extent today is lawful, it's part of a treaty relationship. they were requested to intervene and they are doing so effectively. taking a look at the logistics of it all. cousin on is the biggest of the former soviet republics in central asia and shows massive long borders with russia and china. the protests began as a response to rising fuel prices in a southwestern industrial city and quickly spread reportedly driven by simmering discontent over economic policies. the meantime, imagine being a 5 fear on holiday and all of a sudden getting caught up in the chaos. 25 russians who were stuck in public san after commercial flights, were canceled because of the right have been evacuated by military aircraft to moscow. the tourists visiting for the new year's holidays requested help from the russian peacekeepers to be taken back home. one of the evacuees shares his story.
6:15 pm
we came here to ski during the new year's holidays, and then this terrible incident happened. now we're being evacuated by the military because apparently there isn't another way i'm really thankful for the well coordinated work of our military. the guys who rescued us were taking us out of this terrible situation. thank you very much. god willing will get home fast because this has been a rather scary and difficult ordeal. the unrest and context on initially emerged over a sharp rise and fuel prices, but quickly evolved into broader anti government protests. we discussed the crisis and what it caused it with some geopolitical experts. the reasons for these kinds of riots. well, this kind of destruction would not be purely economic. and also let me tell you that cause i start is a relatively reached nation, mostly thanks to the nation resources and thanks to that industrial base that had been created. so the reasons i think were political because certain class,
6:16 pm
southern forces inside the country helped themselves under represented. and obviously very quickly in the protests which were peaceful in the beginning, but hijacked by the forces which wanted political power in the country. the protest do look coordinated, you know, when you go after a tv station, you go after a and, and report that side of the playbook, isn't it? of the revolution. but there is no obvious leader, can an uprising achieve anything without a clear sense of direction? no, it couldn't. you do need to lead? i think it's quite interesting. i was just about from protest against a fuel cap and please a moves that we do. we do see, as you said, parson revolution taking of the television station, the airport burning down the government buildings and certainly as you said, the degree of violence, this is more than just a simple protest against a government or against a regime or against policy. this is looking for more serious than the context on
6:17 pm
sure is an 1800 kilometer border with china. is beijing worried about any potential spill over, especially in the ship jang province as a mental but apart from oil, which china i imported a lot of oil focused on, especially from tokens on. and also in recent years, china bought a lot of code from coastal stock. i think in terms of energy security cost on the sector. it's really important to china, let alone we talk about the one bed, one new initiative, which is actually just on center of the whole thing. yeah. so, so this is in terms of, in the teacher call, think central economics couple funds extremely important to china. and i don't think you would just let us stand one on this own. we need stability in the area it's, it's actually part of much, you know, you only have to look it on. so the neighbors, you know,
6:18 pm
the likes of was becky stuff this. so the neighbors upcoming stuff, that's an unstable regime. we need stability in that region. we see how important it is to have an ally like russia and we have an organization like collective security yoga agency, s t o to help us down in this very difficult time. now, well, late to is saying that all still is a, you know, punching beyond its way. they have no right to and that kind of stuff. we want information about it. well, still has been suggesting corporation to nato since 1992 c. c still was found it and they don't just didn't recognize still the western, but it said that they don't see this s. and if you didn't are going to zation, they didn't want to talk to c. s, you'll so the west or because it sells to blame for no trade in the information. all the information wasn't available and, and these are available still having the program going soft on crime gets new york

6:21 pm
i well as many as 50000 people took to the streets of france on saturday in paris, nice and ivy non to protest against the covert pass. those scenes turn violent with police using tear gas and battens against the crowd. now this was despite the fact that on monday, as many as 400000 people in france tested positive, it comes as the french president emanuel micron used vulgar language against unvaccinated people. his comments were decried across the country and across the
6:22 pm
political spectrum. and he made them as the national assembly debated a law how and whether or not to ban unvaccinated people from much of public life. it seems as if that will be introduced in the coming days. we've seen similar types of protests happening across europe in vienna. they was fused, there was noise, lot of noise, as people protested against new restrictions and against a mandatory vaccination. while healing germany, the most violent protest took place in mud de berg way. thousands of people took to the streets they, they classed with police who used to tear gas and battens system of most violent scenes coming out from there in germany on saturday. they were also protests in several other cities, including the capital, berlin. at the same time, the german hotel and restaurant association has said that these latest rules and regulations regarding cov, it are a disaster for businesses,

dealers will also avoid serious charges. and certain crimes like possessing marijuana prostitution and resisting arrest will no longer be prosecuted. plans though, have sparked a massive backlash on line rigorous need to protect the vulnerable defend victims and prosecute the criminals who leave residence unsafe. this is not progress from manhattan. liberals need to awaken to the leftist agenda and stop voting their way. when they see the havoc and destruction that woke da's like alvin brag bring to their communities. hopefully they'll finally learn and hopefully before it's too late. more like justice for nobody. you clearly don't give a damn about the people who will be victimized by your policies. as long as you get to a pair woke, being woke is not a virtue. i work in that cesspool,
6:25 pm
and i can tell you that id, i have every day traveling to and from work. new york city is not a safe place. politicians are playing, walk politics with our lives, if only they reap the benefits of the policies they enact. if only the change comes despite new york, experiencing a crime wave last year, with murders up nearly 4 percent to almost $500.00 robberies were also up around 5 percent to just under $14000.00 and serious assault. increased by 10 percent as well. new york police sergeant seek arkham, told us that although the numbers will go down with these new policies, people in the city will not feel safe at all. has got immediate disastrous potential. i mean, see, voice for a new mayor who said that he was going to be all the law and order, but then voted in this da who basically rolled out the window and said, you know what? i yeah, i just, you know, i'm going to be woke. i'm going to cuddle criminals. i'm going to decriminalize
