ah, a he recently notified congress of our intend to deliver and 17 helicopters. the u. s. joins the other nato members in ramping up weapon supplies to cleave right off the urging russia to remove its troops from its own soil and a new round of de escalation top. i think gains access to case materials about convicted sex offender and influential financier jeffrey epstein. showing the reports of it's about suicide attempts were heavily redacted on medical experts and thought inside is appeal to the international olympic committee saying new rules for transgender athletes. unable, unfair competition in women sports. we spoke to one of the scientists behind the

complaint with the i is he's trying to do is focus on inclusion and i think that is fine. but they all schools with our archive inclusion. then you won't have famous a very good morning to you. this is our t international with your 10 am headlines. it's straight to happy with. our nato members have pledge to send more lethal weaponry to ukraine. at the same time that the west is urging russia to remove trips from its own soil near ukraine's borders . now, washington has confirmed plans to send military helicopters to care. i would note that the united states is delivered more security assistance to ukraine in the last year than any point in history. these deliveries are ongoing, including today there's more deliveries coming. we recently notified congress of

our intent to deliver and 17 helicopters. it seems all the stops have been pulled at this point. from the, from the side of nathan lethal weapons are flooding into ukraine at, at record speed when record amounts. ukraine has confirmed that it has received the latest shipment of american lethal arms, amounting to 100 tons of 100 tons of lethal arms in just the legs of shipment. estonia, latvia, lithuania, have all to voice their desire to supply. perhaps i have begun to supply you credit with the guided missiles, javelin guided missiles that they have in turn received from the united states, as well as stinger shoulder launched. anti air missiles is tony, a lot of it in lithuania and their allies, are working together expeditiously to hand over security assistance to ukraine. this ada will further enhance ukraine's capability to defend his territory and

population in case of possible russian aggression. this is of course, in addition to other suppliers that ukraine has received an over recent weeks, including this week with the more than 2000 guided missiles supplied by the united kingdom alone, var sky bridge, endless military cargo floods. you had the czech republic say that it allows supplies, again, vast quantities of 152 millimeter artillery shells which, which have caused a lot of destruction in east and ukraine. poland with the drones and the armored vehicles in addition to helicopters, to patrol craft supplied by other countries. nevertheless, there, there has been some disparity, this unity among nato. it's with regards to this to this on supply route that has been open to ukraine flood. i would even say some nations have stayed out of it more or less,

including germany. estonia has sorta transferred german artillery systems to ukraine, and germany has refused to sanction this move. the federal government has had a clear stance regarding arms exports in recent years. we have not supported the export of lethal weapons from germany. germany has been on the huge pressure from certain native member states should occur, which include the united states, great britain, certain about the country's eastern european countries to, to open up and send lethal arms to ukraine. as well, but germany has so far stayed there. as i said, stayed out of it. the german chancellor, olaf schultz has also been invited to the united states by biden, reportedly he refused saying that he has other responsibilities to attend to. but the, the, the, this is stand off continues at this point. as you mentioned, the united states is called in russia to remove its troops from its own soil near

you, crate to, to move them out. when russia, at the same time, nato troops are arriving in again record the quantities to ukraine, which russia has always seen as a, as a security concern. there has also been an opinion in russia that these build up is, is justified, but more securities needed on the border with, with ukraine. given that this again, vast quantity of lethal arms are being sent to you create and maimed bolden, the regime and in key of said to, to vap, seek a military solution for the crisis and in east than you credit. so certainly no end to the stand off inside ukraine's to eastern most regions on the russian border had been enduring a simmering military conflict for the past 8 years. with forces from the national army bombarding civilian areas that have refused to recognize the west and back

governance in kiev. locals there hope for peace with me, just because you were watching to get them when you're doing your presentation. i'm looking over the signature. i'm going to give it to us every day at 9 am. the crania announced the mas played very loudly, the 1st time was another december. they started shannon an hour later and then all the time as soon as the on demand at 9 am, we will ready,

honestly afraid that would be bombarded. but thank god, it's quiet. now we haven't heard the anthem in about a week. that is too quiet. we don't know what to expect. silence, or if they say some kinds of option, it's very scary. me. i just, it's very hard to live here. even if there is a bang. it's already a horror for us really hard to take. everything has been down him, everything is discharge. there are no shops really be 5 years will live without electricity. it is good now as there is light and water at least because, believe to like in the forest, i have been injured

3 times. i was so shaken that i did not think i will ever forget. it will be sure to 16, i simply went out into my garden when your bride t shirts. then on the way back, there was some kind of shot and i got injured me . we are waiting for things to change. i hope his last to die. well, the top diplomat, so russia and the us how finished round 2 of security talks in switzerland. washington is expected to provide moscow with a written response to the criminal concerns next week. here are some of the highlights. ah, not, he's not here. any reasoning, justifying the american position on the russia ukraine border. only concerns, concerns, concerns with russian officials have never threatened ukrainians as a nation. not even once. president zalinski,

who has been under the wing of our western colleagues who patronize encouraging any sorts of action publicly said that if any ukraine citizen regards himself is russian, he should get out of ukraine. who is the one making threats. and what can these threats possibly lead to? that is the big question is we will not go back on the fundamental principles that we have are and that we are committed to defend. and one of those is out and it was opened, or russia has a mashed, very significant forces and you can't order and continues to do so. 100000 troops. most recently, including forces deployed to billers. russia has addressed every concern which has been voiced, they admit that it's our own territory. still say that there are too many troops, and then immediately in the same sense. and they say that whatever americans are

doing with their own shoes in europe is not of our business. we do not claim any spheres of influence, but what nato is doing in regards to ukraine is clearly showing that the alliance sees it as a sphere of its own influence. it reflects the mentality of the west and community fully confident in its exceptionalism. they can do anything and the rest of us only with the commission in a fresh episode about is going underground with ashley my town. say he speaks with journalist on documentary filmmaker, john pel, jack, who deconstruct the double standards of the west's treatment of russia. first of all, if you look at that to russia was who were said to be the aggressors. and about a 1000000 bait. russian troops are actually in russia. ah, u. s. miss isles, surround, ah,

russia and british troops on the borders of russia, nato troops, or on the borders of russia. nato troops surround russia from slovenia all away down. so the, the aggression, the potential aggression appears to be almost certainly on one side. but it's, it's never a quarter that way, really in san polio, the day, one of the most popular peak of the world today is barack obama. there was marika obama, who affectively ah, overthrew the elected government in ukraine in 2014, and allowed it to be replaced with her, an anti russian aggressive regime that came as a result of on obama's people that has brought nate her u. s. b, u k,

right up to the border of russia. imagine the reverse. imagine the russians. ah, rather a russian presence writer to the canadian border with the united states or the mexican border. it's her, it's her. her, it's the refusal to understand, to reverse such to put our souls in the position of a country that last i don't, i think it was trying to your man whoa, whoa. of the mystery surrounding the death of sex offender and influential financier jeffrey epstein has taken a new turn that he gains access to u. s. federal documents showing the reports of his 1st suicide attempt was widely redacted with his own account of the incident entirely blanks out that he is. danny

armstrong has the details. the life and death of jeffrey epstein, billionaire and prolific peter file, is a subject mired in mystery. and manipulation, the official account of his apparent suicide while held in a notorious new york lock up on charges of child sex trafficking, will seemingly be forever murky with regard to his adjustment to a correctional setting. mr. epstein received one incident report: one federal bureau, prison, custody for self mutilation. on july the 23rd, 2019. as of august, the 15th 2019, the incident report has been expunged, though it is in clear why it has been expunged. and whether mr. epstein knew this, so what exactly happened on july 23rd? a patchy paper trail provides more questions than answers. for instance, a doctor's report, officially logged and attempted suicide by asphyxiation just hours after epstein was found semi conscious on his cell floor. however,

epstein version of events is completely redacted from any records. what's more, the report was amended exactly one week later to include the cause of the but suicide as self mutilation. a direct contradiction of the initial report which explicitly states no instances of self harm were found. epstein for his troubles was charged with violating prison rules and placed on suicide watch. if only for one day. at steve is pending a code 228, tattooing or self mutilation. and i spoke with who indicates that most likely he will be found competent because he is not mentally ill pending a disciplinary process which didn't call a single witness. not even epstein cellmate, the disgrace financier was banned up in solitary confinement and subjected to several psychological assessments. the general consensus was one of a picture of optimism who denied any suicidal thoughts, a tool that is in stark contrast to later prism reports painting epstein as

a solemn prisoner with a poor attitude intent on taking his own life confused well, you'd be forgiven. even the judge overseeing epstein's case demanded answers. one open question among others is whether the investigations reference, neural at all include the incident at the metropolitan correctional center involving mr. epstein on or about july, the 23rd, 2019 to my knowledge. it has never been definitely explained what the federal bureau of prisons concluded about the incident. an internal report concluded that the self mutilation charge was warranted book at theme died before an executive decision could be made. so in the absence of any inquiry into july 23rd aside from medical expertise detailing epstein's high spirits. the question to the american justice system is this, why was the report dotted and will concrete answers that have as yet proved elusive,

ever be uncovered? people are going to need answers. i think there are things that a lot of the public wants answers to. but because from the very beginning, the epstein the death and, and some of the questions, the loop holes, you know, what happened with these guards? what happened with the cameras? you know, so much of this cover up so much of this, it's such an obvious spinning such an obvious narrative here. the more that we're going to keep trying to figure out, figure it out on our own. and, and that's just going to fuel more and more, you know, ideas about what happened and fuel distress, more distress in our u. s. civilian, legal or justice institutions. none of that trust is ever going to be repaired without any answers. ah, the international olympic committee, these new rules for transgender athletes have sparked controversy with medical experts and sport inside is launching a complaint, saying the organization is enabling unfair competition and women's events. the new

regulations to come into effect after the beijing winter olympics next month. would not require transgender athletes to lower their testosterone, to compete in women's events. the international olympic committee is also calling on sports organizations to prevent gender based discrimination. but according to one of the scientists behind the appeal to the i o. c, testosterone plays a crucial role in athletes performance. i think what sport needs to do is have criteria on which they can base levels of. mock is like to stop thrown to a certain level to allow performance that is, i think, you know, in the views of those who wrote the framework, i be probably the only one to believe that to start strand does not play a role in performance. clearly, no one is saying that performance can be brought down to one hormone and clearly, you know, sporty performance is

a multi factorial aspect. but clearly at the moment, we know that distortion does play a major role and has to be considered in the solution. clearly not the only factor, but one of the primary factors, and probably the best one that we have at the moment. did you rules about transgender athletes? our response to several high profile cases, including new zealand, weightlifter, laurel hubbard's, being the 1st transgender trunk to the females. to be allowed to take part in the olympics last year. and the american collegiate to malia thomas dominating over competition despite undergoing hormone suppression therapy as having some record breaking performances. according to the international olympic committee, the new rules will promote a fed as welcoming environment. but yanez pitts, alada say that prioritizing inclusivity can undermine the credibility of competitive schools. i think what the, what the is he's trying to do is focus on inclusion,

being the primary factor being considered to human rights is vitally important. and none of us would dispute that, but in addition to the human rights component, we need to also consider famous. they all holes way if you, par, archive, inclusion. then you won't have famous the, all 3 considerations. one has to have one integrated transgender and deity athletes . an inclusion as famous and safety, but focus only on inclusion is not the way for coming up on our t international candy make a nice lake. courts control the sea with a line of kid can't boss his router feature. hindu de thief, the company, withdrew the products and says it was just trying to showcase traditional indian art now story. and more after this short break, stay with

inflation increases the stories, their rhetoric, the explanations the justifications will get more and more bizarre than because there's nothing in the, in the playbook for mainstream media to explain a place because they've been told for 20 years now that there's no inflation that there's only deflation, and they need to keep printing money to stop the out of the possibility of, of, of a deflationary spiral. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms. race is often very dramatic. development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that's will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk

with st. ah, welcome back. candy make a nicely has found itself in hot water as its special range of hindu kit. cat bars has provoked a backlash and made accusations of disrespect for the religion. nestle has launched the line of chocolate bars with images of hendo deities on the wrappers. as part of an international marketing campaign featuring local artwork around the world. but indians were outraged to see the sacred depictions on the packages, especially if they ended up being littered and stepped on. why use god's image on kit kat? wrapping paper, all for that matter, any food items should not use such religious images for their marketing. this is

very cheap way of advertising. would nestle be courageous enough to have jesus on europe edition and mecca on arabic edition? what a rubbish dirty business strategy in order to gain some popularity while you play with the sentiments. these said ok, honestly, i apologize for any disrespect to the religion and withdrew those kit cats from the market. it insists the main goal was to celebrate traditional indian art and indian business journalist explains why featuring sacred images on products is not the best idea. this is a very sensitive issue in india and all. oh, good, by putting the images of into gods and goddesses on a product that will not gone very well with the indian public because you must understand that people are very sensitive about all of these issues in india. and

india, at this point of time has a government which is led by nationalist party. so people are very sensitive about these things because these are going to be thrown around in dust bins. and also this is not going to be taken very likely by people in any case of handle gods and goddesses are very sacred in india. so using that images on products is not accepted very easily by india, which is why this has led to such a protest by indians. oh, across on age groups. yeah, i mean they could still promote culture, not in india, by giving figurines, by presenting pictures other than gods and goddesses, if they're present in the pictures of human beings and other paintings and animals and all on those pictures, no one would have protested promoting culture not as fine, but they cannot take liberty with him to gods and goddesses on their products.

us how speak and nancy pelosi has agreed to support a ban on stock trading by congressional lawmakers taking a definitive you turn on an initiative she had adamantly opposed as her family has a way to have the pro phase from the practice. so she's been on face 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, 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. critics interpreted pelosi is reference to the court as an attempt to divert growing public anger, financial disclosure show the speaker does not own or trade talks herself, but her husband does last summer pull. pelosi made more than $5000000.00 from a timely bet on google's parent. company just before house legislation,

seen as soft on big tech was passed, nancy pelosi spokesperson had insisted she had no knowledge of the transactions. her husband's investment judgment has proven so uncanny over the years that many trade is simply copy his picks to maximize profits. but now to senate democrats have proposed to bill to ban sitting members of congress on their spouses from stock trading previously. hello c, spoke out against the legislation saying, get run counter to a free market. economy marks kaiser, a former stock broker, i'm current host of ortiz, kaiser report said such instances exemplify an oligarchy. grip on the country. fundamentally, lawmaker should not be allowed to trade. stocks are, we already have a problem of too much corporate money in politics, in america. and not making a lot of corporate money from their donors isn't enough for these politicians. they

also want to use the information that they glean from these corporations to trade on inside information and make even more money. a market that slanted in the favor of those who are accessing inside information, but cloaking it in the, in what would appear to be, you know, the words of free market enterprise. that's just a public relations comment. she's making this not free market enterprise. when you have oligarch straining the system of cash and leaving the population homeless. so it's a, it's quite a, a accumulation of fraud and malfeasance in one body of political class in the united states. it's been city is oligarchy in america, that is praying on the population and essentially making normalizing looting that that's the message that nancy pelosi was trying to make her. she's trying to say, well, look, looting is, and fraud is the de facto business model of america. we do it in the senate, let's,

let's talk about the supreme court. they're doing it to, they're trading on, in some insight information to why you're blaming us. courts are also infected with insider trading. so who's going to conduct this inquiry? if they're all in on the game, right? so that's the, that's the nature of an oligarchy, is that every single aspect of the system is corrupt in the u. s. is massively corrupt across all institutions. and insider trading and fraud is the primary business model of america. if you remove fraud from the american business model, there would be virtually nothing left. many thanks for joining us here in our t international day to get you can find plenty most stories on our website r t dot com. we'll be back to the top down. ah, join me every thursday on the alex salmon show. and i'll be speaking to guess in

the world, the politics sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. me . ah, ah. i'm after dancing. we're going underground. 24 hours after you as secretary of state entity blinking met with russian foreign minister, sergey lab rover ukraine. in geneva, falling president jo biden's, threats against russia in a week of u. k. p. ambrose johnson sending weapons to the former soviet nation. well, this is so called mainstream media declares johnson's premise ship,

all but over after alleged corona, virus restriction violations in the country with one of the highest cove death tolls in the world will who bessie join me now for special edition of the show from here in london is filmmaker and legendary journalist john belgium. thanks sean for coming back on the showed lots of cove it about so it has to be remote this time, you know, one johnson critic said it to me like al capone being done for tax evasion. but headlines all over the world view k p. m. bars. johnson a apparently relaxing restrictions amongst the west death numbers in western europe sent troops to ukraine. and apparently is korea's over. what's your take on all of this hubbub here in westminster? what was just that is how bob around westminster, political reporting in this country and, and, and the united states as well as is priced around the parliament. if that narrow

focus south of on parliament on spanner. i never understand what the choice why the tories are complaining about to be received. because if you watch the baby say, all it does is record column, much seldom reporting the wider issues. so what we've had in this country is, or a great deal, ofer, ah, ah, anti johnson staff. he deserves every bit of it, of course. but it's focused almost entirely on him. and on understandably, on the, the scandals of parties and downing street when downey's faith was, was telling the country to was to lock down. but it always can, ah, only a facade for serious war making. and that's what.
