10:07 pm
and ukraine has failed at the un security council. only russia and china voted in favor with all other countries abstaining. the u. k. ambassador said, instead of humanitarian resolutions, moscow should simply stop attacking civilians, which is something that russia denies. china explained is position saying, while it wants an immediate cease fire, the humanitarian crisis in ukraine, it needs to be tackled now. which is ambassador claimed politics was a play. so civil, so again, the vibe brought to light. all those for whom the politicization of the humanitarian crisis is more important than you and assistance in providing humanitarian aid to those in need in ukraine. give will continue to use the civilian population as human shields and in defiance of international humanitarian law, place heavy weapons, now hospitals and kindergartens. meanwhile, the ukrainian president has made an impassioned plea for everyone to show support
10:08 pm
for ukraine. i thank everyone who acts in supports of ukraine in support of freedom, but the war continues. the x, after or against peaceful people go on one mass already that long. it breaks my heart, heart of all you grants and every free person on the planet. i ask you to stand against the war starting from march 24th, exactly one months after the russian invasion from these day, and after them show your standing. ah, germany has accused russia of violating the terms of his gas contracts, thus after vladimir putin order that. so called on friendly states would not have to pay for their gas deliveries in roubles, loop in city senior. so i decided to implement a sets of measures in the shortest possible time to transfer payment for
10:09 pm
a natural gas supply to unfriendly countries into russian roubles. that is to abandon the use of all compromise currencies. at the same time, i would like to emphasize separately, the russia will continue to supply guess in accordance with the volumes and pricing principles indicated in the previously concluded contracts. unlike some colleagues, we value a business reputation as a reliable partner and supplier, which dorothea or russian president vladimir putin, is basically ordered all payments for russian natural gas being sent to what he called unfriendly countries to be made in russian roubles. in the past, russian companies have accepted the vast majority of payments in u. s. dollars actually, but since the beginning of the military operation in ukraine, russia had to contend with an unprecedented level of sanctions. and one could say that this is moscow's response to the west to vladimir putin, even specifically said that overall trust and foreign currencies had deteriorated because a number of countries illegitimately decided to freeze russian overseas assets that
10:10 pm
was lee musically canadian could over the past few weeks, the number of western countries have taken illegitimate decisions on the so called freezing of russian us it. the collective west is essentially ended the reliability of its currencies crossed out the trust in these currencies. now everyone in the world knows as they suspected, and now everyone knows for sure that obligations in dollars and euro may not be fulfilled. and to be honest, moscow could have responded in a much harsher way. it could have perhaps turned off its gas taps that supply europe, but the decision had ended up taking looks very reserved in comparison. really. we have gotten a number of reactions from european energy companies since serv latimer prudence statement there. and they do not seem very excited to start paying and roubles. no one has reached out to us yet. we also have existing contracts, so that is not agreed. we will continue to pay in euro. we have no other contractual basis. we have noted with grady rotation, the news that russia only wants to process gas deliveries in rubles at this stage.
10:11 pm
we cannot yet estimate the concrete impact this will have on gas trading. now it's also likely that this decision was tank taken to strengthen the russian rouble. let's not forget that it's significantly depreciated in relation to the dollar after those western sanctions. i mentioned earlier, but ah, when the moscow stock exchanged open today just moments after it opened up, the price of $1.00 actually was below $100.00 rubles for the 1st time since march 3rd of this year. and it's also important to note that european energy prices have been skyrocketing since hooton's statement. so these are just the immediate effects of russia's demands to be paid in roubles. and it's likely this will continue to shake european economies in the near future. austria's former foreign minister karen, can i so believe we're seeing the rapid speeding up of a global trend of d dollarization. it's all about an acceleration of something that was there already beforehand. the franchise. the fragility from
10:12 pm
a state of the dollar in commodity trading was very clear in the year 2008, 2009. and this is a financial crisis of 2009 of which we moved out thanks to a very strong chinese economy. the has been of rigidity of the dollar going off. the u on that station is, is moving on to the dollar. i sation, it's not something that will happen now in a very swift move, but it's a regional thing that the external reading like it was the example of saudi arabia and some other orange sellers. we have had that in the past, even when the case was iran wishing to move out of the dollar to the euro. fine instance. so that the topic has been on the agenda and what we see right now. but this reason statement represent putting is a tremendous acceleration. it's so it will definitely open up the new chapter of
10:13 pm
world trade. and washington's traditional middle east allies are also unhappy with us at times to control the global oil supply. some the world's biggest crude exporters are increasingly resisting washington on looking to bypass the use of the dollar in the trade, as are sees rachel blevins explains. after years of involvement in the middle east, the u. s. now appears to be losing his grasp on some of the closest allies in the region on one major area energy. the vine administration has been months calling on the opec was alliance. you increase production by more than planned, in order to tackle storing energy prices. but they have repeatedly said no. now the king of the credit card tell, and one of the top oil producers in the world, saudi arabia is responding to the latest tensions by strengthening its ties with china. while it is currently beijing, the largest oil suppliers, saudi arabia is reportedly considering accepting the chinese you on for oil self
10:14 pm
instead of the us dollar. now this idea has been around for years, but it could soon become a reality, and it stands just threaten the u. s dollars dominance as the world reserve currency. so why would saudi arabia consider a move like this right now? well, they're not too happy with the u. s. and west, you're now lies for imposing unprecedented sanctions against russia, which just happens to be one of their most important opec plus allies. they're also watching countries like china and india actively looking for ways to work around those things. which means moving away from the us dollar. but while the us in saudi arabia have maintained in alliance on the surface, they're also competitors when it comes to oil production and the saudi, they're finding out just how much power they have right now. unlike the government of nearly every other major oil producing country, including saudi arabia and the other opec states, the u. s. government cannot open and close its own oil taps. it cannot compel oil
10:15 pm
companies to drill more. so when the war stands, oil prices soaring, the government was powerless to bring them down to say that us all occasions are not too happy about saudi arabia. having the upper hand on this one would be an understatement. i hate the fact that we have to ask the saudis to produce more oil . i hate that the bite and administration has to figure out how to leverage our relationship with saudi arabia to get them to do that so that my constituents aren't being squeezed at the pump. however, the white house denies that the bodies have turned their back on washington after reports that the kingdom was denying calls for president bite it. the president spoke with king solomon on february 9th, in that call. they set forth in affirmative bilateral agenda from climate to security. to energy cooperation. since that important call, our teams have been engaged at every level. there have been no discussions of subsequent calls at the presidents level given this regular and ongoing engagement . but it's not just saudi arabia that the u. s. appears to be losing its influence
10:16 pm
over the u. a has all their reportedly declined biden's call. and instead of turning to the u. s. for support. well, they're turning to a leader that the u. s. has been years trying to overthrow. that's right. this week officials hosted syrian president bashar assad and his 1st visit to the country since 2011. and that's, i would say the u. s. hasn't tried to use the current tension, who the rewards even noting that the vitamin ministration sent a new batch of weapons. it's audio ravia after denying them last year for potty or e. b. i continue increases dominance as it moves away from the us. they are showing that they can live without america, but can the current american economy live without them? in washington, rachel glove and archie, political analyst, and what cost believes that major oil exporting countries are increasingly looking to bitch. the dollar over fear of falling into us sanctions is 2 very important
10:17 pm
countries on earth, economic world stage like saudi arabia and china decide to move away at least partially from adopting the united states dollars dollar than others could and probably would do the same. this could encourage others to do the same. it may reflect a certain type of frustration with the united states overall approach towards a conflict around the world. and it may also be just a tactical move to tell the united states where we're not happy to raise production and renewed prices because you asked. so what's in it for us? the way the sanctions, the us sanctions have evolved or it throughout the past decade is a worry for lots of people for lots of countries. because not only the united states impose sanctions on certain countries, but it also impose a secondary, so a sanctioned. and as long as you're dealing with the united states dollar or the us
10:18 pm
dollar, then you are m at the mercy of these sanctions. countries would want to move away from this heavy handed approach by washington and try to find an you know, a solution whereby they could actually plan a fulfill to fulfill their needs in expertise in products and so on. the wedding over whistleblower and wikileaks founded julianna's sanchez finally been held in new case bel marsh prison. as the year after it was granted permission, the wedding was held in the prison. assange has been in since 2019. that's after the u. s. took legal action to expedite in for espionage charges. the whistleblowers supported gathered at the prison gaze to celebrate the wedding. and the ceremony was attended by only 6 guests and no press were allowed inside. a sanchez new wife stella morris claimed that the media was being blog because the authorities don't want her husband to be seen as human. independent journalist
10:19 pm
taylor, her doctor believes it's shameful. the u. k. has such a high profile political person, other prisoner let this be a reminder that there is a political prisoner in the west in the u. k. and that is julian assange again and award winning publisher. in here we have western media in western entities celebrating this man, lindsay, who is a us puppet. and after, by the way, he's also an actor. but he's absolutely a puppet of the us government in the west. and he is being applauded by government around the world. it is just so shameful. meanwhile, julia and his arms, who had bowed war crimes and rom doing by the united states and other governments in want to be worth prison in the u. k right now. and that is our prison. this wedding should have taken place at a location of the choice of julian and san and his fellow morrant. they should have
10:20 pm
not taken place in prison because julian assigned and award winning journalist and publisher should not be imprisoned and he should not be facing extradition to the united states. u. s. congresswoman carolyn maloney has suggested prohibiting the government from conducting any business with companies. you decide to continue working in russia while many companies have made the right decision to end or significantly scale back their operations in russia. others have failed to do so. that is why today i'm introducing this common sense legislation to support the biden harris administration's efforts to isolate russia and ensure no american taxpayer dollars will go towards supporting vladimir putin in justified invasion. ukraine's president's has also recently put swiss food corporation, nestle to shame demanding it quits the russian market. the companies representatives say they are. busy already doing their best to help ukrainians. the
10:21 pm
fact that we like other food companies supply the population with important food does not mean that we simply continue as before. we are doing whatever we can in ukraine and neighboring countries to help alleviate this humanitarian catastrophe. while the infamous hacking group anonymous has also come out against russia threatening to attack, any company still operating in the country. anonymous recently claims have hacked, nestle, and leads his data because the company has continued operations in russia. i'd see experts are cham gallow believes the actions of the anonymous group can be classified as cyber terrorism, liberty. but from a view to this is clearly cyber terrorism, no matter what anonymous does. because all this happens without trial or investigation. it's very convenient to carry attacks and hacks by governmental or government related organizations and structures and give the results of these hacks
10:22 pm
is the activity of an abstract organization of hackers who actually have no purpose . it's important to understand that 99.9 percent of hacks of any sites consists of social engineering. and in the vast majority of cases, people working inside this organization having access to databases or simply system administrators a hiding behind hugs. in such cases, it's very convenient to hide behind and anonymous organization of hackers. when the state comes up. it's important to understand here that there are no official representatives and leaders in the anonymous organization. this is a free community. we can also call ourselves anonymous because everyone is equal there. you can make an analogy with a total, well, democracy, anonymous and not enemies of russia. they are not specifically for any country. they are all the enemies of the general corporate system. it's very difficult to direct them to any specific goals. they're affected by general information on such hack groups, including anonymous by no means new and big politics. quite recently,
10:23 pm
there was an episode when anonymous had the same conflict through the nato organisation. anonymous published an announcement in which they were against the aggressive actions of nato. their activity and big politics is not new, and it must be remembered that these are just people. since the starts of the russian offensive in ukraine, there's been a great deal of speculation around the world about the future of bloody and putin, and whether or not even has won. the western media has been full of stories about his possible assassination ranges from being be thrown by all the gods to acute conducted by the armed forces, intelligence or secret services inside the kremlin. and yet, most of the theories are supposedly based on claims from ukraine's military intelligence. it is known that borden cobb and some other influential representatives of the russian lead are considering various options to remove food from power in particular, poisoning, sudden disease,
10:24 pm
or any other coincidence is not excluded. journalist and also daniel lazar believes that's all the story is simply stirring up war fever against russia. i think the purpose of such stories as is to, is to drum up our war fever against russia to prepare the, the public for, for further military actions. it's really all rally and i'm in to remind you of those seems in the 1984 where the, where the crowds would would, would call for the death of emmanuel goldstein. the enemy of the state. since since at least 20112010, the americans have been demonizing. vladimir potent and potent was out maneuvering the u. s. in a number of areas in libya in 2011 when he opposed the the, the air war against gadhafi. and in 2014,
10:25 pm
when he took control of the crimea and, and safe guarded the, the sabbat, the poll naval base, and in 2015. when he, when he intervened in syria. and each one of those acts made the u. s. more furious and it took out its fury on, on puting potent, you know, in particular a demonized him. it's just been completely bonkers. today marks exactly 23 years since nathan bombing of yugoslavia. the strikes lasted for $78.00 days and left hundreds of civilians that local correspondence, boris malozuski reports, heretic bombing campaign. ah and it started on this day in 1999. today, our armed forces joined our nato allies and airstrikes against serbian forces.
10:26 pm
support for nita was illegal. war on serbia was almost unanimous. among us politicians, i have supported the nato bombing. what advice would you give president clinton this very morning? just don't lose your resolve. not to say there wasn't any criticism and the most obscene chapter in recent american history was the condom to the cost of a conflict. when the president on stage refused to prepare for ground operations. how obscene american not sending and ground troops right away. what to occupy all of serbia, we should go to belgrade, and we should have a japanese german style occupation of that country. and we should have public trials. does anyone even remember any of this path? i was in serbia. when the bombing started, i was 10 years old and i remember the air raid sirens to me. this came out of the
10:27 pm
blue, but the stage for this was set before and nato's bombing started throughout the 990 s. american politicians and media outlets were bent on waging war against the serbs in the balkans and i was suggesting we bomb belgrade. i was suggesting that we send american pilots in and blow up all the bridges on the drain. when nato 1st bombed the serbs in bosnia and herzegovina, 995 time magazine said the massive bombing attack opened the door to peace. but in $1099.00, the excuse was cost of serbia, southern province in which the so called cale a or kosovo liberation army, conducted terrorist attacks on serb civilians and security forces that the aim of coastal seceding from serbia is a pretext that serbia was using excessive force in their counter insurgency operations. the us cited with the albanian kaylee rebels are goes with the beginning, were to read casa of serbs and rid they did. following the bombing campaign over
10:28 pm
160000 serbs were 75 percent of them fled kosovo. but that's still wasn't enough. so in 2008, much of the west recognized kosovo as an independent country in violation of un security council. resolution 1244 and serbia's territorial integrity and sovereignty. america's pledge to militarily intervene and the balkans went beyond serbia's borders. i will continue with every fiber in my b to keep america involved with troops that can shoot and kill to protect the rights of the albanians where ever they reside in the balkan. many warned nato's bombing would set a dangerous precedent for me as a 10 year old kid. just watching serbian television was scary enough in to, to nato me. cells fell on the village with on the residential part of the village. were striking hard at serbia's machinery of repression for
10:29 pm
making a deliberate effort to minimize harm. to innocent people on the hit list were local hospital and primary school in 78 days, 420000 missiles including depleted uranium bombs and band cluster bombs fell on serbia. it fell on our infrastructure factories, television stations, hospitals, schools, kindergartens, and innocent civilians. nobody ever apologized to serbia for the bombing. nobody was tried nor punished for the bombing. you probably forgotten about this, and most of us have moved on to more pressing topics, but i can't move on. i will always remember what nato did to my country. i don't think there war hawks can become peace doves without recognizing the harm they've done. can millions in the past. former yugoslavia and foreign ministers you've out in the yvonne of ich views, the nato campaign as both the legal and criminal label. i gratian on yugoslavia,
10:30 pm
i actually own serbia in 1999 was the 1st war on european soil and the 2nd world war. but it was all show for us to war against to euro participated by euro nato aggression on a 23 years ago. a national strategy of expansion and told russia a was quite a few legal and criminal ash. contrary to un resolution has since the final document to a new to maybe presuppose and many international conventions. it was actually not aimed at piece. it was aimed at giving the car for military presence of nato on the balcony. it wasn't.
