10:02 am
supposed to be all about the leaving the tensions and the eastern europe border that's will be postponed, which was supposed to happen just last night. although boys johnson spokes person says it's not unusual. the world lead is scheduled to change, but what is unusual is the timing of all of it because of course, right here in westminster. what was going on yesterday was the su gray report into downing street allegations of parties. now once that report landed, once that bomb dropped, so to do the phone call with directly to to not dropped off the face of the planet . and it has been branded as pathetic and further proof that bar as johnson is clinging onto the live politically. speaking of course, amid a dangerous crisis threatening peace in europe, a vital diplomatic opportunity has been missed. his boris johnson scrambles to hold on to his job. these are the real world. consequences of a distracted prime minister, unfit for office, running a government in disarray. a pathetic embarrassment. boris
10:03 am
johnson says he's helping with a diplomatic situation in russia and ukraine. he has no credibility. no one trusted him. the best thing he could do to help would be to resign. well, it comes as $9.10 people don't think doris johnson is fit to run the country and his approval ratings on now an old time low. they've sunk to just 22 percent. so, intervening in the crisis in eastern europe is all about changing the image for bars johnson and trying to change the public perceptions and opinions. bars. johnson wants to almost season initiative be a leading voice and trying to alleviate and deescalate the tensions only this telephone call still hasn't even happened despite drug putin speaking to the italian prime minister. and indeed, the french president for the lawrence johnson here in the u. k. it seems like he wants a swiftly move on from all of the allegations in downing street move on from do
10:04 am
great report. so he's flying off to care of some saying that he's running scared. almost. he's got a desire to change the rhetoric as i say. but he is without the foreign secretary list trust. she is actually tested positive for cobra, but not the full paying. the auntie and the house of commons with threats of sanctions were met with cheering and laughter. and the commons that is in and around the kremlin will have no way to hide. we will make sure that those who share responsibility for the kremlin is aggressive. a d, stabilizing action will share in bearing a heavy pulse. and today, mrs. b, o, we are standing together with our nato allies against the potential aggression vladimir putin. when he wanted not said on the go to install a prime minister as prime minister, a labor leader who actually published may turn with so the prime
10:05 am
minister that acting quite robust and big talk tough talk in the house of commons just yesterday to have a potential aggression of putin as the united kingdom doubles its troops and 900 to ukraine. but on this tough talk many m. p 's here in the u. k. simply thing, boris johnson and the government. c are ramping up the rhetoric just to deflect and distract exactly from what's happening here in westminster with the park to gate scandal. forest johnson says we all need to step back from the brink of all the tensions with ukraine and russia. but perhaps he better practice what he preaches, because it doesn't look like he's going to survive this political scandal. what i will say to the presentation, but it is. but i think we really want to step back from the britain. and i think a russian, someone they bring, the end of the policy british from is to birth johnson on the brink of this course
10:06 am
on the brink label, store my head in latest pulls off the policy show a good to polity gate, the incredibly stupid scandal make up for his jones and his job. through grace is down, the street behavior is difficult to justify florence johnson to weaken, but paul, to get time bull to influence ukraine crisis defense chief wounds. p. s one, your own. bring prime minister ali. we spoke to a former london, my can livingston who predicts it's the end game for boris johnson's political career. when this started to come out, he lied again and again and again, denying it all. now exactly, except the fact he wasn't telling the truth. and this is the most dishonest, prime minister mind on time. and when a prime minister's coat line is the end of the korean. and the simple fact is, the poll ratings for various thompson are so low. that is to told him he's don't
10:07 am
get rid of him and he takes them into the next general election. they're going to be wiped out. oh, canadian chuck has have now blocked part of the u. s. border in the province of alberta as part of the rally against cove. it vaccine mandates. the drivers, the prime minister who reported he fled to the capital as thousands of truckers and best support is descended on. the city has now poured fuel on the fire. he's branded them a mob of racists who still food from the homeless. i want to be very clear. we are not intimidated by those who hurl insults and abuse of small business workers, and steal food from the homeless. we won't give in to those who fly racist flags. we won't cave to those who engage in vandalism or dishonor the memory of our veterans. the prime minister dressed up in racist
10:08 am
costumes. so many times he can't remember them all. doesn't mean every single liberal is a racist that i do respect grandma, i just wish his government would respect a thousands of people who are fighting for their livelihoods right now. here. who are trying to do the best to get this country back on track. canadian truck is even whitman sees the government's dividing the nation to serve its goals. he's calling me a racist his extremist. what have i done to deserve that? my government is supposed to have my back. when you're in trouble and you need to help your government is supposed to be there for you. they're not supposed to drag you down. and what i've seen over the past 2 years, it's been devastating as breaks. it breaks my heart because my government supposed
10:09 am
to have my back. i work hard and one day, you know, i was hero and now i'm, i'm a racist and an extremist and it hurts. it hurts so much that i, i can't even put it into words. it makes me not want to be a canadian anymore. it further puts strain on, on the system of almost $16000.00 more drivers, which is going to drive the, the prices up. and it's infuriating that he is dividing a nation. he's dividing his voters so that he can push an initiative to be popular on the world stage, the movement rate. now it is bull my mind, it as a truck driver. i've been following it for almost every hour. watching the numbers grow and the support grow and it is so heart warming. it's so emotional to see the support from around the world. and it's growing. i mean, it's growing and it's growing so fast, it's taken a life of its own. and it's so wonderful to watch video shows truck is maintaining
10:10 am
that blockade off the border as they continue to demand the vaccine mandates be scrapped. it follows mondays rally in the camp. so all to a resident, tracy roseborough was among the crowds. we have a prime minister who is not being extremely that by so far down on people know reducing the price of language. again, people who are very peacefully this provider for that. but you backfiring because i wanted to buy, and i guess the fact that the fact we want to gather all of the mapleton se hungary can now enjoy guaranteed long term gas supply of the hungary extended an agreement with gas
10:11 am
problem to 2036. to receive the cheapest gas in the u. r. t's were mom calls or reports. one of the 1st things that's our prime minister of hungary said was that the past year 2021 was the one of the most successful years in the relationship between the 2 countries. and of course, mister orvin said that to the whole of europe is going through an energy crisis at the moment center. he's very thankful for the expansion of the contract with a gas prom and a vladimir putin on his behalf. a said that that contract had been extended until the year 2036, and a hungry right now will be buying a russian gas and will be at one of the cheapest contracts. there is in the market at the moment. this is a very timely val, angry as well as, according to gas infrastructure. europe, gas storage stores in gas storage in europe right now had depleted by 81 percent.
10:12 am
so they only have a 19 percent of the moment. well, the meeting is still going on. right now as we speak, we are expecting a press conference on their leasing a little bit later on. but so prior to victor orvin arrival to russia, he was heavily criticized both by opposition parties in his own country. and by e. u. officials as well as saying that victor orvin is instrumental for vladimir putin who is apparently allegedly trying to put a wedge in the european union, the countries and divides their unity. we are looking at the competition angle here and the behavior of the participants in the gas market. i would leave at that at the stage as the investigation is ongoing. there are no findings yet on our side. nevertheless, victor or ben is say, here in russia as the head of the country, you so both a part of the european union and a port of nato as well. however,
10:13 am
because an orbit is a widely viewed the moment by many people as a kind of a blanche who is trying to have a good relationship with russia and was looking out for the interest of hungary, of interest of his own country. and one of those interest is of course, a nuclear power station, which is also part of the talk says something the to leaders are discussing. i hear now russia's estate company, ross autumn is a building and a nuclear power station in hunger at the moment. and that says set to be commissioned by the year 2023. that's a certain that's part of the discussions here is while russian specialists are working in the hungary and it's partly financed by a russia as well. now back to those people who are criticizing bixler organ and trying to say that his visit here puts
10:14 am
a divide in the european union will here. so what they said about his trip, victor opens visits, and the fact that he did not cancel his trip despite the situation, sent a message that nato an e. u member states and not united. in rejecting prudence proposals. putin is trying to divide us and he will continue to test us. i sincerely hope that victor or ben is aware of what is at stake in that he sticks to the message of unity, of course. so cov 19 is a high and the agenda as well. and the size of disgusted here at the kremlin to after all, hungary became the 1st country in the european union to implement splitting rushes, sputnik v vaccine in their country. and right now the sides are talking about means of production of sputnik v in hungary itself. now other topic, our topics of discussions are of course, european security space and cultural exchange as well. more of
10:15 am
this as we're following events here, the kremlin, the west sanction. so it's willingness, the war in ukraine is how moscow has blasted, what it could be warlike rhetoric coming from the u. s. during the un security council session on monday, which was over me, going to go to going to western colleagues, talk about the need of de escalation. however, 1st and foremost talks about upcoming war are in itself provocative. you're almost calling for this. you want it to happen, the threats of aggression on the border of ukraine? yes, on it's porter, is provocative. our recognition of the facts on the ground is not provocative. rosters mercer girls curricular justice is our american colleagues. have gathered us here. let them provide any evidence apart from allegations that russia is planning to attack ukraine. russia's military buildup on the border has been paired with extensive new demands and aggressive rhetoric. pretty sure is this deployment of russian troops in own territory is getting our western and
10:16 am
u. s. colleagues to say that there's going to be a planned military action. there, however, is no proof confirming such a serious accusation whatsoever being put forward even ukraine's president of the west to stop its hysteria, while many ukrainian citizens also also say they believe all claims of an imminent attack by russia are baseless. in addition to a 300 javelin anti tank missiles sent by washington, u. s. national gone have been pictured teaching ukrainian troops in the western city of love, how to use rocket launchers that are around $200.00 us national gods. currently deployed in the country locos in the north and east and board, a city of ha cove shed their views on the situation. well, the one you will notice this is a seater. it's manipulation so that people don't think about what to eat tomorrow. but think about where to hide. this all is against the background of the fact that life is difficult, high prices, low salaries,
10:17 am
overall lawlessness. it so that the protest sentiment doesn't strength and they simply throw this information out to us. yesterday that i consider this part of an information wall. you don't really need to believe in it. it's a possibility of course, but you need to use common sense and filter through the information. but then the pretty my, to the west isn't involved in peacekeeping. they just want to inside a war that's a lot, a pool ingram. now i political analyst on former executive director of the british american security information council. think tank. thank you very much for joining us on the program. and now we've just seen at these, this footage of the u. s. troops training ukrainians to use rocket launchers. do you think some will see this as another escalation in this dangerous situation? i think it's important not to overstate because there's so very, very few of them. it is a symbolic or effort to show support to ukraine. but actually, the fact that it's only a couple of 100 actually demonstrates that the west are,
10:18 am
may, may well be talking out the prospects of conflict. but i'm not actually willing to put that troops in harm's way. at this stage. it's failing a lot like a cold war. hanged over isn't says what does washington hoped to achieve here? do. thank i think washington is trying to maximize its ring from a neighbor, moving forward some time to try and reduce rushes influence in this part of the world. it is, it is definitely a throwback to conflict between soviet union and the u. s. and, and in meetings with americans, they often slide into referring to russia and that sort of a comfort zone. and, and i think to be honest, moscow has fallen into that trap by talking about spheres of influence. and i think,
10:19 am
i think that what we need to do is we need to start thinking about neutral security, about building a security architecture and picking up on president peterson's ideas and suggestions for. so pressing a reset, the actually thinking about european security from scratch 12 is an offering to membership to eastern european countries. in the past have been part of the soviet union itself. right now, a lot of talk about boris johnson using this whole ukraine situation to shift attention from his domestic. what is it feasible? do you think your opinion well, it's not feasible. and actually the biggest story is that his domestic was who has meant that he's been unable to focus on this issue. meanwhile, president peterson has talked to pretty much every other european liter bottle present, the prime minister johnson. and i think what that means is that johnson is, is so busy at home, and then is now starting to talk,
10:20 am
coming in right at the end of the process about some kind of trilateral security between ukraine highland and the u. k. which can only bear provocation when the russians are quite clearly stated that ukraine should not be entering into any security arrangements with, with it's weston. with, with western governments. were saying some nato states pouring munition and other military devices into ukraine and others keeping the distance is always seeing what could be a division in nato over the ukraine situation. so there is undoubtedly a division within a tang. i'm nicer is often more divide. it likes to mess on and, and this, this, this is, this is, this is a reflection of the fact that may have such different interests or says the british
10:21 am
who have traditionally been very ok. you've got so poland, baltic states and states like this, but starting to russia. and then you've got the western european, central european states, western central, hey taylor, who are much more amenable to building relationships with, with moscow and, and who seem to understand more the need for moves towards a common security agenda. it involves not just the establishment of a strong military alliance, the strongest, the world is ever seen against but also drawing in russia and eventually china into a global conversation about how we do security pulling room political analyst on form, executive director of the trans atlantic british american security information council
10:22 am
. thank you for your time today. and you are the u. s. continues to saudi arabia raising worrying questions, either president biden's pledge to help end the war in yemen on the saudi lead bombing that we've got the story and more coming out of this very short break. stay within the what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on, often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk join me every 1st bit on the alex simon. sure. well,

i'll be speaking to guess with the world politics. sport business. i'm sure business. i'll see you then. every country in the world will eventually make big coin legal, tender. the only difference will be at what price we have el salvador making the move in the $30000.00 to $40000.00 range in united states that may wait for tolts of $51015000000.00 coin before they finally wake up. ah, welcome back. yoman has once again been a target of a series of air strikes by the saudi led coalition, and the latest attack civilian homes were hit in the capitol while a week ago, a rate was launched on a prison in the countries north, which resulted in dozens of death, amnesty international claims evidence points to the use of us made weapons,

heretic images that have trickles out of yemen or jarring reminder of who is paying the terrible price for western state lucrative sales to saudi arabia and its coalition allies. arms experts from human wifes, organizations analyzed fragments from weapons found on the ground the past. what i tend to find is belonging to a laser guided bomb manufactured by the u. s. company re film during election campaigning. joe biden has pledged to end his country support for the war and yemen, vowing to hope on sounds to saudi arabia and other members of the coalition. but more than a year on weapon shipments have continued. meanwhile, un officials of called for the promised saudi probe into the recent rates to be independent and transparent. mm. mm
10:25 am
said i didn't have that on a have it since we didn't have any information that there would be an attack. we only heard the sound of the strike. i heard that when i was at home, i went out and entered the jail. i saw a body bars everywhere. mm oh, i did. a lot of us. i heard groans and screams. some prisoners were clinging to the bulls. i shined a flashlight and saw a huge number of people that the bodies of some of them were torn apart. others crawled on their stomach. some tried to get up and walk. others were locked inside the building when they were 3 strikes the 1st bloss hit, the building on the east side from the side of my house. then to strike, came on the western side of the livid, of go out to let you assign his forces attack to back a prison and city of saudi using smart bomb, said these bombs are used against ground targets and heavily fortified objects, again at the span bombs have been used earlier, why these are american bombs,
10:26 am
but they're used by the u. s. navy and air force, as well as the saudi arabian air force. this war has to and and to underscore our commitment. we're ending all american support for offensive operations in the war in yemen, including relevant arms, sales. dear international security eiletha had masood believes despite promise is to end support for operations in yemen, including on south u. s. foreign policy is chiefly set up to make money. well, the weapons which are being used in the middle east have been quite a very long time given by the american. so nothing new because the biggest weapons manufacturer right now in the world is united states and they will continue to do this. they will need to sell because the foreign policy of the states just
10:27 am
dictated by the military industrial complex for the money that noise in the but i am real live right now, but will it be is once again, a huge be beneficial and profitable business. why do they exclude this is the sale that have taken place between america and america. comedian on tv personality will be goldberg, has apologized for claiming the holocaust with not about race. going to do this, then let's be truthful about it because the holocaust isn't about race. no, no, it's not about media. we join lives now by mach schulman, the editor of history, central dog. com. thank you for joining us on the program. it's good to see you and
10:28 am
welcome. what might will be goldberg, have meant that turning the holocaust into a race issue, quote goes down this alley. what alley? well the, the alley ish is as follows. in the united states, particularly right now, jews is sort of considered white people, part of the establishment list amongst the far left and amongst some parts of the american community. and that's what she was. so referring to, you know, schmid statement that the holocaust is. 2 white groups killing each other, so to speak, one white group killing another white group. and she didn't accept the facts until she was correct and she did make an apology that jews were killed. not because they had some different belief or something or there are white people with different beliefs. was because the nazis consider them a different race sub the human race. and they were going to eliminate all the jews . and that's something that way too many americans, particularly on the far left have accepted on the far right except to the fact that
10:29 am
the jews are a different race and they don't, they're not part of the white race and they want to get them out of america so the jews right now are sort of in this in between place both in the fall left in the far right and the 7th is in the united states has risen greatly and they all accept the fact that the holocaust took place. but they look at it in a completely different sort of ways. and of course, we also have the phenomenon in the last 6 months, where illusions to a holocaust coupon, taking part in all the mask mandates and all of the things that people are blaming the jews for the mask mandates and other actions in the vaccine mandates. and everything else like that. and so the rise of anti census in america is very significant. it's taking place, like i said on both sides of the political spectrum. jews generally has to be wary and throughout history. whenever some sort of extremist comes to power or has power, jews are usually the 1st ones to get hurt. and in america, there always was a brace, interest. society wasn't a problem,
10:30 am
but today the extremist on both sides voices are getting stronger and stronger. goldberg, have apologized, as you said, for her words and many of been cancelled for some of the statements. do you think she might suffer the same faith? no, i don't think so. i think because she came out with such a strong statement of apology, i don't think she'll be canceled. she's also too strong a personality that it's not likely she would be cancelled. i think with the can, i think we've reached the, the height of the cancel culture so to speak. people started to be a little bit wary, a little bit, realizing that people make mistakes. and if it's not an underlying of you're not underlying the re fixed anti semi white nationalist or the reverse, then we'll give you a little bit of a pass, not too much, obviously. but look, her statement came from that one point ignorance, which is very troubling. that someone who was so involved in the media world internet and she.
