2:00 pm
ah, ah ah, useful meeting with a candidate exchange of opinions add a critical moment. that is how the russia and u. s. foreign policy. describe it in geneva. they come up or commit arising tensions over ukraine and the nato expansion. the white house and out it's sending military helicopters to ukraine, just hours off the de escalation with russia. other nato members are also wrapping up weapons supplies. the key if the functional police vote is enough to scroll through a couple of random pages to be sure none of the provisions stand on any critical analysis. in many cases, it is simply a nice nice conference after the talk. so again,
2:01 pm
louder offer lashes out at us officials and mainstream media pushing fresh on proven claims against moscow. examine those claim to lay this out with love from moscow. thanks for joining us. all the international this evening on daniel hawkins. wherever you are, welcome to the program at the top diplomats of russia and the u. s. i finished their security talks in switzerland as tensions are we, ukraine, remain high. washington is expected to provide moscow with a written response to the problems concerns. next week he's be to all the reports from geneva. so rob, so here in geneva, and we've now got a much clearer picture of exactly how both the us and russian side see these talks having gone. we heard from said again are for off the russian foreign minister who described them as useful and constructive. we heard from anthony blink in the u. s
2:02 pm
. secretary of state who said that they were frank and substances will start with the russian foreign minister said gala, for of low. he was 1st to give his press conference. after the meeting wrapped up, he said that washington had promised to provide an answer in writing 2 security concerns that had been presented by moscow to their u. s. partners. now he said that these weren't just security concerns focusing on ukraine. they were for the wider european area. he said that the future of these talks would depend on the response from the united states there. but he said that the diplomatic door was pretty much remained open. it's worth pointing out. there was no major movement on any of the, the big sticking points during and these talk certainly what the are the representatives thief, a foreign minister. and the secretary of state had to say that was tow major and tectonic shifts in where the rest, respective countries stand. what we did here though,
2:03 pm
from the russian foreign minister, as he addressed questions from the u. s. media with him say that there was no intention from moscow for them to invade ukraine at any time. why is russia doing this now? why do you feel that you need to make these troop deployments now, when really the security pastor of the u. s. and nato really hasn't changed over the past couple of years. my store sued to regrow minute of her cousin. i think the u. s. state department should analyze the methods of in, in, in regards to accuracy of, of that you say we're going to attack ukraine despite our multiple explanations of what was there for saying this will happen. you then ask why now, when do we not attack? it's a strange question so, so, so we've caused repeated all fundamental point that never ending nato expansion to the east should be still to anthony, blinking repeated his position on the right to choose alliances. asked him how the u. s. plans to follow his obligation not to strengthen some of the security at the expense of the security of others. he promised to explain the us position on level outside of gala ross press conference was followed up with one from
2:04 pm
u. s. secretary of state anthony blinkin b u. s. chief diplomat, saying that the that diplomatic route remained open to finding a solution for the tensions between russia on the west white. now, he said that he received the sure answers from said gay lauser, old russia had no intention of invading ukraine at this moment. he said he would receive those assurances in the hospital as well, for the actions of russia didn't match up to that. then that would be a response from the united states and its allies and not response would be swift, severe, and united. he said that there will be a response from washington to those concerns that were voiced by moscow, and that response will be coming in the next week. he also said that there's ways and means available to take the heat out of the current situation. transparency, confidence, building measures, military exercises,
2:05 pm
arms control agreements. these are all things that we've actually done in the past . and that if a address seriously can, i believe reduce tensions and address some of the, of some of the concerns. well, the you, a secretary of state also sketched out a potential timeline of where we could be going next. he said that once they've responded to moscow, he would expect that there would be further me think that the foreign ministerial level, perhaps here in geneva. and if those meetings went well, that that could be another meeting between president putin and president biden, perhaps face to face, perhaps here in geneva, a repeat of what we saw last year, which took place in the swiss city. what we have seen though is a continuation, a willingness to continue the dialogue over these ongoing tensions between russia and the west of the us will provide, am i 17 military helicopters? the key of the announcement comes, your style is off the top level of security talks with russia,
2:06 pm
where the us secretary of state claims you wanted to de escalate tensions of your crime. i would note that the united states has delivered more security assistance to ukraine in the last year than any point in history. and these deliveries are ongoing, including today there's more deliveries coming. we recently notified congress of our 10 to deliver and 17 helicopters a lot. now to us is caleb open for the latest? caleb, thanks for staying across the story. interesting decision by america to provide these, these weapons as military equipment given low folks. moscow will surely view this as a wrapping up of tensions. sure. i mean, the meeting between lab, rob, and blinking has just ended and already we have the united states talking about sending more military weapons to ukraine. very extreme situation. you know, you'll recall that there were talks where blinking basically urged moscow to
2:07 pm
withdraw troops from its own territory, pretty absurd. now at this point, 3 baltic states have confirmed that they are also sending weapons. this is the statement that we heard. estonia left the lithuania and their allies working together expeditiously to hand over security assistance to ukraine. now there seems to be a rift between the united states and a major european ally over this issue. we heard from the german, chancellor and german, the german chancellor spoke up and said that the german government does not support the export of lethal a deadly weapon and has not supported it in recent years. so germany is not on board with this recent move from the united states. clearly a situation where the united states is going to be escalating the situation. this is not the kind of thing that russia is going to view as the united states de escalating things more weapons headed toward, toward ukraine. these military helicopter is not, not
2:08 pm
a situation where tension is being eased. all eyes are, are on the world at this point and what's taking place right, kayla. thanks for that update caleb. more than that. all us corresponding. well, let's go live now to august on this story. scott river, former us marine corps intelligence officer, to get some more insights. scott, thanks for joining us. do you think i had to go with these military helicopters, ukraine, perhaps on the mind, perhaps, and the wrong message ahead of those talks? was she diplomatic goals? said, well, just hours earlier. well, what it does is underscore the hypocrisy of the american position and nato's position. the fact of the matter is if you want to deescalate the last thing you do is provide legal weaponry. but i will also emphasize the following point. this is a joke, i mean it's, it's purely symbolic. it has no military value whatsoever. the notion that ukraine can absorb this material in
2:09 pm
a meaningful fashion and then deploy it to the battlefield where it can be used as intended. is absurd. this requires extensive training. extensive coordination, all we've done is give a bunch of teenage boys, you know, toys, toys that they, they don't know how to use. they don't know how to corporate. and if they ever do have to go to war against the nation, like russia, who, by the way is familiar with every single one of the system is developed strategies to feet above the field of battle. this won't even provide speeds up against russia, so it's purely surely for the, you know, to, to create a symbolic gesture of solidarity. there's, this is not serious. i mean, these are serious weapons, but you just don't have weapons of this technological capability over to a military that's neither trained equipped to organize to absorbers. watching politics face time, i've also revealed they'll be sending at the tank craft mythos to,
2:10 pm
to keep again it's, it's a thumb in the eye of, it's the way the baltic states and stick up. i'm in the eye of moscow. it's basically saying a look, you know, where it war with you. i mean, if you listen to the, to the rhetoric coming from the politicians of the baltic states, they've said we are at war with russia. we're just not fighting russia on the baltic front for fighting russia and ukraine front. but you know, the opportunity to kill russians should not be missed. and so we will provide weapons to ukrainians, so they can kill russians on our behalf. i mean, that's the mentality in the psychology. that's it. play here. and believe it or not, that's the psychology of the united states. that the fact that tony blinking is meeting with the lab, rob, to discuss a diplomatic off ramp for the current crisis. at the same time, the united states is green lighting of the delivery of weapons for the sole purpose
2:11 pm
of killing russians. because you don't have deterrence unless you have a real capability. and so the united states is saying we will deter russian aggression by providing this capability that can control a lot of russians. so it's totally counterproductive and it undermines the american position when they say, you know, we won't allow nato to join for years. you don't need to worry about what's the difference between a ukraine that's a member of nato receiving western military and ukraine, who's not a member of nato receiving western military from the russian perspective. there is no difference. do you think, i mean, the concern from russia is, of course, what they're saying, nato build up, but it should build up on the board, and nato fails to see that. but i mean, surely, nato aman, ukraine makes the russian concerns more legitimate. surely everyone can see that you would think everybody could see that. but again, the united states, nato,
2:12 pm
and europe have not shown a, a tendency to give russian concerns. you know, a fair look. the, you know, the expansion of nato is sort of living proof that the, the west doesn't care about rushes, legitimate, national security concerns. and in this a today, nato in the united states are trapped by their own rhetoric. i mean, anything that is seen is stabilize the situation. they believe is a sign of weakness sign a retreat on their part. and so they're stuck with the only thing they can do is go forward who send lethal weapons because if you don't send lethal weapons and united states that opens up joe biden to criticism from congress at a time when he need additional support for domestic programs. so where were seniors of the consequences of allowing your foreign policy, your national security policy, be hijacked by domestic group?
2:13 pm
for sure. right. interesting. interesting times. interesting talks still to draw conclusions from scott ritter formal ring correlations officer. thanks for insight here. 390. thanks. read me now i had all of those talks, the state department has outlined what it thought is examples of writing this information and the report that presents its opinions as solid facts that was published just a couple of hours ahead of those folk rushes for a minute that was critical of both the content and it finding it's you my, you thought it was the person lease documents which the u. s. state department has of course prepare deliberately for today's meeting was more simply impossible to read. the ssl is enough to scroll through a couple of random pages to be sure none of the provision stand of any critical analysis would be in many cases, it is simply align reduce on among the devious claims in the report is that nato is not encircling russia. with its military bases, said, argues that the real problem is that russia is just too big of
2:14 pm
a country. well known a story. he is more aggressive. well, over the past 24 hours, washington has launch something of a of a p r offensive. they, they've come out and they've said that virtually are all the security concerns that russia has talked and talked about for 10 years for even longer than a decade. that all of that ease ease fiction. they've come up with, with a least the various things that russia has said that russia feels uncomfortable about who concerned about and explain why those points shouldn't be taken seriously . fiction rushes, deployment of combat forces is a mere reposition of troops on its own territory. fact deploying more than a 100000 russian troops, including battle hard uncovered forces and a festive weaponry with no plausible innocuous explanation to the borders of a country that russia has previously invaded and still occupied. in places is no mere troop rotation. it is a clear, renewed russian threat to ukraine sovereignty and territorial integrity. there is,
2:15 pm
of course, no mention of the fact that the russ into buildup happened concurrently with ukrainian to build up with the vase convoys of tags of artillery pieces, making their way towards the russian border towards easton ukraine, and the conflict lines. the conflict lines, the logistic of that statement, for example, is that the united states is concerned with the russian troops moving inside rush. whereas rushes concerned with troops from florida, from march, canada being sent half the world away, and stationed near russia as a you can understand where rushes coming from here. but there's a, there's a whole lot more where that came from. there are passages full of inhuman falls hit and stupidity, for example, they call sake moscow statement that the repositioning of russian troops and
2:16 pm
russian territory means repositioning of russian troops on russian territory. brilliant. what is there more hair lies or illiteracy? i did not even want to deal with it. i know one thing for sure. this could only be published by the ministry of truth. similar situation would be russia coming out and hysterically condemning a united states to build up in texas for example. there was, there were many other points such as another one, a fiction, or russian fiction, is that nato is surrounding washer. and here they argue that, that, no, it isn't. russia's a huge country with, with $1414.00 neighbors that a chairs, the landlord, the women, and only father, those a native states. well, if we look back 20 years, there was only one. then there were 3, then there were 5, and now with the essential potential ascension of, of george and ukraine in the future. right, about half of russia's, lambert,
2:17 pm
neighbors would be nato member states. so how can, how can you argue that nato isn't surrounding russia would, but you have the numbers right there. there was also another, another russian fiction. the new wouldn't promised russia that nato wouldn't expand eastwards. this is, this is an outright lie. this is an in c, i and state department in european archives that yes they did. it's in writing a cia archives for example. then director of the cia director robert gates said that gorbachev's had been promised, had been led to believe that nathan wouldn't expect this, but you had the james bake of the state department, the head of the state department, secretary of state back then as 3 times telling gorbachev's that they wouldn't move . one inch eastwood you had, then the of the then west german foreign minister has either ginger saying that nato shouldn't expand eastward, given assurances to russia. then the usaa,
2:18 pm
the, in the event of germany, re unifying that nato would movies. you have this in writing, in writing, lisa, archived, memos, cables. nevertheless, there's this, as i say, much more in that list of russian fictions which a lot of questions about arty itself, has also become the target of washington's accusations. with the us state department, letting the channel and follow news out of sport, and use this information to advance the prominent foreign policy reaction from monte host and for british m p. george galloway. the timing on the launch of this report is naked lay sign that it's part of our new propaganda offensive, but i have had the unpleasant task of reading all. busy 33 pages of it, of the people that have lied to us over and over again. i'm now lying to us about
2:19 pm
ukraine and russia. those market for it, there is an audience for it, but fewer and fewer people are believing these lies than ever before. thanks to the existence of our case, the existence of social media. people can find out the truth just with letting our fingers do the walking. more and more of them are us how speak nancy pelosi has been accused of a cynical you turn off to shoot back the bad on stock market trading by lawmakers. the thought her family telling the list of democrats profiting from the much criticized practice critics. the note she's hoping to divert drilling anger with officials profiting from inside information by demanding that supreme court members are also banned from trading stocks. to give a blanket attitude, if we can't do this and we can't do that because we can't be trusted, i just don't buy into that. but if members want to do that, i'm ok with that. if we're saying everybody should be living by the same standard,
2:20 pm
then lead, so be it. that's okay with me. but i don't think that the court should be let off the hook. so i say when we go forward with anything, let's take the supreme court with us to have disclosure closing bond pulled trousers some more than 5000000 dollars from autonomy back on google's parent company just before the house, which is lation seen as soft on big tech was passed, nancy pelosi spokesperson insisted, she had no knowledge of the transactions, but her husband's investment judgment has proven so uncanny over the years that money fighters simply copy his picks to maximize profits. will allow us to senate democrats. i propose the bill to ban sitting members of congress from stock trading data for the director of the reactionary times news site says pelosi, my publicly back the bad politicians like it will never pass that legislation. i'm a fan of this proposed legislation. nancy pelosi herself is kind of flip flopped and been on both sides of this. i think it's because you know to the politicians
2:21 pm
and people are right now in favor of this new legislation. all these politicians can beat their chat and say that this is a good idea of what they come down to the floor. they're never going to bowl for it is completely unethical for members of congress to use the inside baseball that they have as it would be ignorant, you know, and bullish to not believe that they're not using the inside information that they already have to go ahead and profit on the stock market, members of congress have a direct effect on regulation and which companies get the certain regulations which industry kind of get a push from the government and a little government subsidy asian. so you can kind of play the crystal wall in terms of the stock market. us of ation regulate and 7 falls to push through new airport landing technology off the top. airlines wanted catastrophe from
2:22 pm
interference by new 5 g mobile networks of the airline bosses said 5 g networks could ground plays. the federal aviation administration improved new alternators that allow landings and low visibility conditions. major flag carriers from british i waste a lot of times i had already changed or cancel flights over the issue. because the proposed 5 g deployment involves a new combination of power levels, frequencies proximity to flight operations and other factors. the f a will need to impose restrictions on flight operations using certain types of radar altimeter equipment close to antennas in 5 g networks or us pod. jason says the issues actually worry for the asian community. the asian community thinks this is a huge problem basically because there is a potential degradation of safety if we're not confident that we can fly in a safe environment we want. and so it's going to lead to more cancellations than
2:23 pm
we've already seen. 5, g is, is a lot of different countries around the world has already been implemented in and around airports. the difference that received in the international fight is that b, 5, g, and tenants are at different angles and using different power levels. and they do in the united states. and so when they're being turned on in the united states they're, that's what's causing this interference. a new report is claim form of pope benedict . the 16th failed to take action 4 cases of alleged sexual abuse. one it was said, it was on bishop of the german cities of munich and fronting the study by a german law firm, looked into cases of obese, between 945 and 2019. and how church officials handle them? according to the report, over 2 thirds of people, investigators turned out to be priests. the report also said the former pope supported this latest inquiry but denied any wrong doing i. we spoke with wilford festal man, who says he was a victim of sex abuse by the clergy during that period. he told us what he went
2:24 pm
through. in summer it happened in the summer of 1979. i was 11 years old, after act served at st. andrew's church and when he left s and the people started attacking me for the new i was one of the reasons he left. we moved to another district of the town and in 1999, i began effective by my experience. i could not work and then i have this and i could not drive or simply go out of the house if my whole family was suffering because of that, i started visiting doctors to find out what the problem was. finally, i got to see like a therapist. i told him the whole story and he said i had been through a really traumatic experience in that triggered memories of all the hard. when i saw the pastor immunity, he was standing among other batter, smiling. i told myself, listen, paraphilias he had so he'll most likely keep going. he did faster, but when it's not the 1st time i've seen a catholic clergyman, i've been on the far over ledge, sexual abuse, and numerous other cases having been reported in other german cities as well as
2:25 pm
ireland in front wilford's. first one again says that often his letter, pope benedict shane's punishment guidelines for clergy guilty of sex offences, but says it's taken too long to happen. when i fi, want fi told me 2006 in 2008, i sent an ottoman emails to the music diocese. i wrote about my experiences with pastor acts when he was a nurse and they ignored my letter in 2006. so i try it again in 2008 when abuse victims were demanding compensation for the 1st time. they then described my letter as criminal blackmail, but it's clear that i hadn't been blackmailing the church. those officials who came to me realize i was infected right away. they also realized they themselves had been used by the church. they were simply fooled by malice. first of all, concerned about justice because the pastor just went to another place. when i was writing the letters to me to protect others and may 2010, i wrote to pope benedict to mean i told him my whole story on may 21st. i got a response saying the pope would take care of it and he really did. but as we have
2:26 pm
seen, it took 2530 years with him to open up that one if that's the headlines for they fall and use these shoes, setting away in just a few moments time. we're back in 30 minutes with the very latest join us again. down on the international ah and move it all, you move in simplest possible form. and i was and got started and all that needed to be done with it before actually. and then this starts expanding. so where those equations come from and hoping to switch. this is not a contribution to science cuz with
2:27 pm
ah ah, visit, abide and delivers a to our press conference which had time to let people scratching their head and body in had more questions than answers. we're going to bring you to highlight plus to as predicted. republicans kill the chances of reform for the filibuster, as well as the future of the democratic voter reform bill and legislation. first enter schumer and new the bill never had a chance. why did he even introduce it? ask our parents that are heartbreaking story out of california. where georgia,
2:28 pm
gas con is now speaking, a very young girl was violently murdered, and her father put the blame on the woke da or every you. yet another tragic story, having tied to the late district attorney's office, and crime is on the rise and every major city, but one neighborhood had enough. but it's asking it to secede it from the metropolitan area. is this going to be a trend for us and neighborhoods who are not fully protected or their liberal government? i'm huge and i'd say that news i want to cover these stories as well as the response to the a teddy roosevelt statue being removed from the american museum of natural history in new york city. lots to cover. let's get started. ah, we're going to start with president biden, giving an unprecedented press conference and as a one year anniversary of being in office. now mixed reviews. however,
2:29 pm
on whether or not the press conference actually helped dispel from the negative views of this administration and their policies. or did create have more problems, obviously do not have the dramatic effects and democrats were hoping for. and later on in the evening, republicans to match the dreams of performing senate rules regarding the filibuster . that's putting the coffin of the voter rights bill into the ground. could this be a rough start to the 2nd year of the by to ministration and how do democrats think it can improve? what's bringing our past? ed martin, chairman of shape legal forum and ladon jones, former georgia state representative. thanks for joining me. good gracious. yesterday. speak to our d, i've gotta give him credit. he did it. he answered questions from the press for 2 hours. bravo. i would like to see that every week. summer probably can think, has a great idea. some democrats are going could we have ended after the 1st hour, but i want to start with you with this one, ed,
2:30 pm
cuz i've got to ask you the expect to republican point is obviously criticize the presidency checks. i'm gonna switch it. i'm going to get it done. that was a given, but it was democrats like van jones who said biden's answers were foggy at times like reagan at the end of his presidency press. president obama, former advice, david axelrod actually criticized buying bite and saying he missed the mark and focused on himself too much shocking politicians talking about themselves. but don, i want to give the president credit, like i said, but do you feel that he did more damage to his agenda considering what happened just a few hours later? you know, it's very difficult to talk yourself out of paper back this current presidency is not doing so well, but not passing legislation. that is there. and so what is that they want to before? and so what is necessary is that they give american the comfort and you do that by presenting.
