done to up to speed is obscene. these people up nor saw the can an exclusive interview without a rush is foreign minister says that western propaganda and false claims of impending attack on ukraine and merely an attempt to portray moscow as an aggressor . all this is propaganda fakes and fiction. but the main thing is that the authors, if these fakes themselves believe in what they say. if russia withdraws it's true. the threat will not disappear. the brick for the future already being laid me more than a think tank wrongly predicted russia would invade you trained last week. nice says it's small sco, spreading this information also to come police in the canadian capital arrest protest is an attempt to clear that camp off the prime minister justin treat, triggers emergency powers,

and the court of arbitration for support claims anti doping agency to the chaos committee believe is december drug test, and the hom, it's caused the russian figure skating star. that wouldn't surely impact the good afternoon just going full here. moscow you're watching. international rushes, foreign minister has given an exclusive interview with you about the ongoing tensions over ukraine, saying the west has been laying the groundwork to suggest that a russian invasion would always be a threat against the all this is propaganda fakes and fiction. but the main thing is that the authors of these fakes themselves believe in what they say. so if it's pleasant for them, why not? but of course, all this causes a smile, adult spirit predictions and spells every day. at the same time, the nato secretary general states that they have no information about an absolute

probability of an attack. and at the same time, the foreign office also declares that no matter what happens, we must be on guard. if russia withdraws its troops, the threat will not disappear. the brits for the future are already being laid. the topic is being habit forever and ever. what are these, danny armstrong is here back in the studio to discuss this a bit further. hello, she again, danny m mister lever. they're giving a scathing appraisal of the west, common free on ukraine. what has the west said? what's the latest from that? well, the latest is very much what they said at the start. of course, we're seeing just more accusations from the west that russia is planning that imminent invasion into ukraine. of course, this invasion has been imminent for the past few months now. now we have been promised diplomacy and dialogue, but what we're seeing is more drama and disinformation, and of course, the all important doubling down on the invasion day. of course, joe biden himself was reported as saying that february, the 16th that's wednesday,

just gone would be the day of an invasion. now we're hearing reports in western media of it being after the beijing olympics. then it could be the end of the month . the goal, poster shifting, left and right. thank goodness, february is of course, a short month. now we've had the same from a nato think thank who predicted and were proved wrong. we've heard from the u. k. defense ministry who drew up an axis of invasion and different routes that president putin could invade ukraine. but what we're hearing from russia, of course, from pseg, a lab for the, the foreign minister, the defense minister survey, chicago. and of course, president vladimir putin himself for several months that there is no intention of a russian invasion into ukraine, but that of course, fallen on deaf ears now u. s. secretary of state antony blinkin says he wants to be proved wrong. of course, he's predicted many a time that there would be an invasion, but when you listen to some of the rhetoric, it kind of comes across a little bit different. our information indicates clearly that these forces are

preparing to launch an attack against ukraine in the coming days. we don't know exactly the formal it could be a fabricated so called terrorist bombing inside russia, or a fake even a real attack using chemical weapons. now listening to that, danny, some people are saying that this sounds like a familiar playbook from the u. s. of course, as we've seen these accusations from antony, blinking completely baseless, of course, of domestic terrorism that could come from russia some chemical weapons. he mentioned that the un security council in new york for what we do have, what history does tell us is that this is a textbook tactic that has been used by the u. s. in the past, of course, as we see on those pre texts. so that the iraq war was launched and also the nato bombing of yugoslavia in 1999 that was on the dubious pretences as well. now,

all the while russia is saying that this, this is just kind of a ploy by the us to devalue those security man demands made by russia and to make basically pain russia as the aggressor and all of this now the russian side, i just pretty tired of hearing these claims because attempts to place the blame on russia are futile and baseless. i must say that we are very disappointed by the ostrich like position of our western colleagues who are trying not to see obvious things away. now of course we heard this head in the sand attitude, this ostrich a kind of approach to things, those obvious things that we've just heard. or of course, our rushes, safety air demands, and security demands. that is, namely to stop the nato expansion in eastern europe to withdraw the military advisors and instructions from that area to end nato's military involvement in ukraine. and of course, so that involves military drills along the border with russia to stop the shipment

of weapons into ukraine. and to withdraw at the weapons that are already in ukraine, they have been sent from outside its borders. and if those demands aren't met at danny m, as russia indicated what it would do? well, there is, of course, an ultimatum from the russian side. and that is if the security mat demands continue to be ignored, the u. s. will exhaust it, sir, is lanes of diplomacy and it's avenues for the escalation. of course, if it does continue, as we've seen, to ignore some of the very basic request from russia. russia does reserve the right to defend itself and has said that it will give a military response to these continued ignoring of their demands. national obstacles are nato colleagues, defending their own righteousness will not be able to avoid talking about how we

will continue to fulfill what we signed up for. they will not be able to selectively interpret what was approved at the highest level and ensure the interconnection of all components of indivisible security. we are still making little progress, some fundamental issues. but we are interested in explaining, in detail the seriousness of the situation and conveying to our american colleagues and then they to allies that we cannot be satisfied with promises. especially since written commitments that require nater, members to fully take into account our interests. not to mention those verbal guarantees, even the written commitments of the heads of states. now it turns out, worthless. it won't work out that way. we will make sure that everything is fair. still, we have such a concept of doing what you say, your deep russian foreign minister there. again, making rushes stance on your train. very clear. ok, thanks, danny. this is danny strong. we also heard from the british politician and naughty

host, george galloway, about developments in the russia they to stand off satellites. obviously don't walk when it's about russia and troop movements away from ukraine. but neither do they work when the allegation is that more troops are moving towards ukraine. how difficult would it be for the united states to produce satellite images of precisely that which they allege? the answer is they can't because there isn't, there are no russian troop movements towards ukraine. there are significant troop movements in the opposite direction. the real thing that has provoked this crisis is the pumping fool like a turkey before thanksgiving. stuffing of western trainers, troops, mercenaries, and weapons into ukraine. russia cannot be expected to be relaxed about and

relax. they are not me. one in a think tank that wrongly predicted rush would invade ukraine last week, is ramping up. the accusation saying it is moscow that is sewing dis information with moral not his moral gas vs. if you haven't heard about the atlanta council at is arguably one of the most aggressive pro violence thing tags in the world. that is the de facto thing, tag of nato. so no surprise, they've been at the forefront of this hysteria that we're all sick of. just listen to their deputy director. but in has big we can plans in ukraine. he's going to cut power and heat knockout ukraine and navy and air force kill general staff and hit them with cyber attack. then install pro russian president and resort to full scale military invasion if ukraine doesn't give in. this was last week and just like her previous predictions, no one invaded anyone,

but she did her job. she helped mislead countless people and spread immeasurable fear bannock, and, and even terror. and she, she has now been hired by the u. s. government to lecture on russian this information. but what other things, can you the u. s. government, european governments, new cranes do i to combat states foster disinformation efforts coming from moscow? we live in an upside down world. the atlanta council, which is co funded by such organizations as the u. s. military, all manner of west and weapons manufacturers, as well as well. johns and a slew of banks. you would think that with all that money, the atlantic council would be a serious organization. analysts and intelligence and tactical teams and strategic teams. no, no predictions of basten ceilings and the motions. we have learned emotions running high and i let them get the better of me. i still expect action this week,

but put in may drag this out. we still don't know, but i'm line. is that a recognize that i need to be more judicious, her feelings? her heart told her that that bowden was about to cut power to ukraine and, and kill that senior officers a deck out the navy coast, the millions of dollars her organization gets from american weapons, manufacturers whose stock prices are directly dependent. the public fear had nothing to do with that. similarly, i than she would be against having to disclose that the atlantic council is funded by arms manufacturers and every one of her tweets. she's also against us state funded media, having to disclose such information like voice of america. i'm voicemail america had a great reputation trusted. i mean, al, it was the status. does it still have a good reputation and is it blocked in russia? i'm surprised it was. and there we go, that discussion on russian,

this information turns and to dis, information about russia, some ridiculous situation comically. but until you realize that these people are advising the u. s. government, european states media outlets. and you can only wonder how much more damage have their emotions done that we don't know about. they produce a lot of effect on policy making because they determine the debate. so they work to shut out. people with alternative viewpoints are to promote of the dominant narrative. well, it poses a lot of risks, but i think from their point it's a win win. so ah, if there is an invasion, then they look kind of prescient. and if there isn't, they'll all run around something they're just saying how strongly are and how moscow back down. because joe biden's such a tough leader. in fact, thomas friedman just wrote

a column basically saying that the other day. so they are one of the i will say, major propaganda tools that are used by the, the security state. now another use that this afternoon. canadian police have tried to break up a protest camp in the capital and made sporadic caress of truck drivers and others demonstrating against coven vaccine mandates raising tensions further. in the process. we saw more, more boxes are load all the all the believe. we've picked up why not get ready? morning? there's over a 150 watts lead garden prisoner transport wagon. there's 6 boxes getting ready to load guys up, build up symbolizes unlawful operate and unlawful order. because this is not an emergency. after, you know, there's not a place that you do more levels and they cannot act on that. they are acting

unlawfully and they are acting under a lawful order. will protest this resisting arrest. we're forcefully taken away by officers and several pen to the ground before being handcuffed. one this protest leader chris barber. he was also search before everything placed inside the killing him. all the 3 most were police chief earlier insisted that the protesters were not peaceful, and that cracked and was imminent. we've been bolstering our resources, developing clear plans and preparing to take action. the action is in imminent. in the past few days, we've been communicating directly with the unlawful protesters. we've told them they must leave, and we've warn them the consequences of disobeying these rules. we will never stop trying to get people to leave our streets. that's exactly what we want them to do. just know that there's a deliberate plan. there's commitment, and there's the resourcing that we now have in place to actually finally end this.

well, the emergencies act that is now enforced as an ad, the government to ban the rallies and suspend protests as bank accounts for up to 30 days. it is supposed to be invoked only though, if there is a national crisis and the authorities are also cracking down on descent within their own ranks to non toria government aid losing her job. after it was discovered, she donated $100.00 to the movement. opposition. lawmakers say though, that the prime minister is acting like a dictator. people lost their wages. citizens were harassed, the potential for violence group. and the federal government instead of acting, argued over jurisdiction. canadians can't be expected to simply take this prime minister at his word with his plans are not consistent with fundamental freedoms. the government should not have the power to close the bank accounts of canadians on a whim. the progress is the continued to make their presence felt in the ongoing

wintry conditions. though, prime minister trudeau accused them of threats, violence and hatred, and waving a race and waving races, flags. the midi there though is mostly followed the official line with only a few exceptions, and one of them is the radiate host kate carson. he express support for the trackers on his shoe and says that he was then let go from his job. well, my contract wasn't renewed after i spoke out against caea mandates on the air. and so i was politely show in the door for the 1st time. canadian people are afraid to speak the truth because we will be labeled as some one who supports hate. i'm so if you attend a peaceful protest with thousands of people, you go home, you watch the news, and then you see there were hundreds of protesters harassing people and spread a spreading, racist hateful messages. so many canadians, early brainwashed and then go on attack each other on, on social media. so there's

a very strange divide that's happened between us where relationships are being destroyed between co workers and family members and, and friendships. i've been talking to a lot of people on my podcast to our live on the front, you know, grounds aboard this is all happening in ottawa, a da so side of the parlor buildings. and they've had their phones face timing with me zooming with me interviewing people, walking by. and it seems to be all high fives and support from people who even live in the neighbourhood. so the energies very high, i feel like people are in support of the truckers. there is a massive wave of love and support and i'm and freedom and i think the mainstream media is hiding that and not giving in a voice. and there's a bubbling frustration with canadians who aren't getting their voices heard. i think most people have felt like the government went too far a very long time ago. and i think that this is actually helping to wake people up to some of the corruption and quite frankly,

the craziness that's happening right now. that the idea that our bank accounts could be for hosen or, and i donated to the truckers convoy as well. so my wife and i are saying, while we're on that list, should we be worried about it because it is such a crazy overreach of government power. i think it's working in the opposite way. that adjusted trudeau hopes and it's not, i'm of go have his back down. it's actually waking us up to fight even harder. now after the russian figure skater, camilla reliever saw her hopes for gold turned to dust at the winter olympics. the court of arbitration for sport has criticized how her doping scandal has been handled at this month's games, anti doping agencies and aims that she had failed drugs test 6 weeks ago, back in december. but sports chiefs to say that the failure to reveal it earlier is clearly harmed the athlete and other competitors in beijing. this has been the

results of the relevant unsaved open bodies. failing to ensure that pending cases are resolved before the olympic winter games commence. had that all been accomplished on time and in conformity with the time limits recommended by water than a decision on the merits of miss believe us case. and her status could have been made well before the game started and before her competition experienced. and that of other athletes was affected adversely. how does the caea statement fit in with that disappointment last night when valinda went from favorite to forth, the pressure must have been immense. we'll have to tell you that last night broke many hearts not just knows openly, routing for believe, obviously in russia and everywhere across the world. 1st of august did say that now the now broke the positive probe, which came back with allegedly a doping test and a positive dog dog test off camille of oliva. that itself, the procedure took too long and basically gave no chance for while you were to

mount any kind of defense. it came now in the middle of the olympics on february 8th, despite the bro was taken on december 20 fit in russia. so it's b questions as to how white this and it took so long. secondly, and that is a very important statement by cost that athletes should not be subject to the risk of serious harm caused by anti doping authorities. failure to function effectively at a high level of performance. and this is basically exactly what happens to believe if you consider her performance last night. this is a very serious hom, especially when it comes to our psychological state. and also that's not forget that our cost is not ruling out that all this may have been a technical mistake. there is a probability that the onsite up in the portrait might have made a technical mistake, which is compatible with the extreme of low concentration in the sample. this is why the athlete will request the analysis of the b sample since this broke, a lot of people have been projecting what kind of pressure this 15 year old girl might be under a lot of sympathy on the time lines to then he,

she knows how she fails, trying to perform the top of her game at a winter olympics. and yet facing all this pressure, she said anything about what she's going through. well, surprising you, she seemed call mother and those who actually won the medals last night. so she didn't really have any comments to make a but listen for a week or even more than that. a believer was heavily lambasted by some of the mainstream media, especially in the west. there were people who were calling for her to be dismissed from the olympics. there are people who are calling on the inside a russian team or the r o c team to be sent home immediately and not compete in the next several olympics. all this pressure by the media has been absolutely severe, and i dare to say disgusting at times, considering the fact that nothing yet has been proven. it's almost set in stone down that a lever will open her b sample. once she comes back to moscow and she's on her way to moscow now, so this story will drag on, of course, but without any concrete evidence of wrongdoing. all those media outlets,

all those journalists, seems to have forgotten completely about the presumption of innocence and the result of that, or part of the result of that we saw last night with that performance. probably the worse performance by lever, which cost or an olympic metal? what about olympic chief selection that this is reflect on them because they were supposed to be putting on a big show. instead, they've had this canoe blight battle to try and keep the route away from what should be a global sporting showcase over the past couple of weeks will, i will not lie. this issue has boys them to the olympic games massively here for the last 10 days. or most of the journalists here, we're not even talking about the metals, one by athletes. they were talking only about volleyball, all those endless life hits outside the media ascent and not about winning gold, but about the doping allegations. clearly, that has huge mark to play on the games and you know what the i o. c president on his back was, beth stood with questions on friday morning, had been waging during a press conference. it lasted an hour. the entire hour was dedicated to believe, just to prove the case. a book to prove my early

a boy and thomas back basically deflected all the questions. there was even a question about whether he felt believe i was bullied by some members of the western press. he said that we should rather talk about doping allegations than that. he was also asked about why he decided to meet with the japanese and the u. s . ice figure skating teams. they're not the russian team. he deflected that as well . so there are questions lingering among many here about the quality of management of this situation by thomas back in the officials. this is not gonna be the end of it. it's going to drag on even after we've had the closing ceremony. what can we expect next on that? the biggest question right now, probably a bond from valley was fate. of course it is the fate of the t metal. d. a gold metal that's russia. figure skating team one almost 2 weeks ago. now, the award ceremony has not been held ios. you promised that once the case is resolved, i, it will be held appropriately at a different place, different time. obviously, that is the biggest question right now. of course, there's no question about that believe or will go to open her be sample. it may

have been an accident as been confirmed by cas and i only have to wonder whether all those people criticizing and ambassador her all throughout. will apologize when i have no question about it when volley was found innocent in any kind of wrongdoing, but of course i'll be keeping you updated on everything happening with it. now before we go this i, let's just bring you some breaking news because the self proclaimed denette people's republican easton train has started a mass evacuation of civilians to russia as the leader of the region. to say that that's because of shelling from the craning army targeting residential areas. so let's go live then, and speak with our correspondent roman custody of his indian yet scott, good afternoon to you too. man. what more can you tell us then about the situation that good afternoon and well yes, in the the announcement by the head of the self proclaimed peoples republic of genetic denise, pushing king just a moment ago, we are right now in

republic and the ukraine. now those who will be evacuated say once again, it has been agreed upon with the government of the restore for region. there will be placed in accommodations that were prepared for them and there will be provided with all of the necessities and his stress that this will be a temporary solution that meanwhile we've been here and, and as for a quite a few days already. and i have to tell you, honestly, it hasn't been as loud here in a while, many, many months. so we saw this situation intensified across all the front lines, which we saw damage to a civilian infrastructure, both in logan's and in the next couple of people were wounded. i mean, the civilians so weak or getting plenty of reports in the local or social media as well. how people are hearing explosions, say near. there are residences,

sir. now. now the intensification of battles on the frontline was also confirmed by the o. s. c, monitoring mission as well and representatives of the are people so militia of the self proclaimed republic. sir, they're also, they are saying that ukraine ah, is a violating all kinds of sci fi agreements by using very, i, heavy artillery was saw destruction to a railways. we saw destruction to gas ah, by applies and or other damages, or as well, well, we will continue monitor in this situation here in the ground for what i can see right now. it's still a relatively quiet here in the streets of the nest, but once again, we just got this information moments ago and we'll continue covering the events for you here as they unfold. yeah, we're certainly come back to you for that. thank you to a man that was art is roman casa, they're reporting live or from didn't yet square leader of that region is now who

simply be us from a future time coming back into the say, their own best the democratic republic of congo is among the richest countries in the world and natural resources. but he cannot mclee, it's still one of the poorest cobalt is an essential material in manufacturing batteries for modern devices like electric cars, mobile phones and computers. 60 percent of the welt, cobalt reserves are in congo, but 20 percent of it comes from small scale mines. unicef figures confirm that in 2017. more than $40000.00 children, worked in cobalt mining in the republic to earn a living and paying for schooling. next time you use a fancy gadget like a smartphone camera or laptop, and just remember that there's a chance it works. thanks to what child, how'd labor children like john michel,

henrietta. oh countless others like them. ah ah ah, i am fear today. not the star war, but to prevent one. that is the line, the united states. keep repeating and get the accusations and aggression. same exact opposite. we're going to bring you the latest, including the demand from russia for the us to plot. all truth can why we just interrupted our program in there because the flood imitated the better russian president, alexander lucas shank, he's flown into moscow for talks are holding a press conference less. listen it her our tradition to be over the years. if both sides underscored that russia and bellows are good neighbor.
