3:01 pm
there was streets who used us as human shields with hello and welcome. this is anti international with the latest news that date is good to happy with us. now austria's chancellor has stressed the importance of safe humanitarian corridor with inside ukraine, which should be upheld by russia. coney hammer made to be his statement during a media briefing following talks with president putin in moscow, is the 1st visit of an e. you, leader to russia, since the conflict and ukraine routed in late february. meanwhile, the head of the don units, people's republic has declared an intensification of military action in dumbass in order to speed up an end to the fighting. as he noticed that drawing out the conflict is affecting civilians, stuck in the crossfire. oh, pakistan, parliament has elected a new prime minister, shabba sharif, who's being called
3:02 pm
a western friendly politician. the vote comes off, the 10s of thousands took to the streets across pakistan to protest the ousting of populous lida and rank con ah, the parliament held a vote of no confidence on saturday against com, following weeks of political stand off with opponents criticizing his economic and foreign policies, however, con insists the motion against him was rooted in a us bank's conspiracy. he's also said he won't recognize the legitimacy of his replacement. the u. s. has denied the allegations of having interfered and emotionally gates con, saying get respect, pakistan's rule of law. but some of his supporters suspect still possessed the
3:03 pm
bunkers on pakistan is legitimate government has been removed after us interference all the institutions, including the judiciary, assisted in this, those same thieves and looters have been imposed on us again. when i'm making you de, paula, so boldly, j. now light and we don't want our hopes to and our children now struggling like how we did. we want to tell the hell would this is not a democratic way to and to government. what does american thing? they will bias audio, but they won't happen. everyone should trace their voice against the decision by mondays vote in pakistan's. parliament went ahead without any of him. ron cons, lawmakers who resigned in protest over his ouster, i discussed the legitimacy of the countries me prime minister with autism on a boy ko, who interviewed con, ahead of his recent visit to moscow. for the latest developments on pakistan, wells ship, i sharif, as we know, has just been appointed prime minister. however ahead of the votes,
3:04 pm
all of console makers resigned on mass in process of the proceeding. so just how legitimate is this new prime minister in your i? well, i'm not back on the supreme court then it's, it's hard to get to this point. but as you pointed out before it comes after weeks and weeks of political infighting, the new into rim prime minister because he's appointed until the next election. i think that we translated either at the end of this year or perhaps early next year . he will be in power for a couple of months, but he comes from very reach family. he's a younger brother of no boss sherry who served as packet sounds from an assist 3 times was out of our state once. he also had that corruption charges pressed against him before and he's now residing in london from where he remains involved in the package. and it's internal politics.
3:05 pm
his younger brother is to be of similar persuasion. i wouldn't describe him necessarily as distinctly pro western. i think pakistani politic policy at this point of time is more or less multi actual. it's very closely tied to china. and perhaps we'll say that way. but whether or not they would bring in and to be in fighting political and fighting yet to see. because that regulations that, for example, back from corruption bureau may bring some charges against the new prime minister. and it also remains to be seen what the army thinks about him. because traditionally been of our family has had a somewhat contested relationship with the army. and as the saying goes, there are many countries that have an army, but there's only $11.00 army that has a state, and this is pakistan because of the, the role of pac austin is military in the, in the politics of the country has always been pretty substantial, i remember also long ago watching your interview with
3:06 pm
a miranda on fantastic interview, of course. so you probably have a better insight into the courage. so his personality, it looks like he's going to fight this. absolutely. there's no doubt about it and you've already shown the videos of enormous crowds that call us in as momma by then some other cities. he has a lot of popular support. can you describe him as a populous politician? i would slightly disagree. i think he's popular and he has invested a lot in both in his capacity as prime minister and before that in the benefiting the poor and in the country and trying to provide social safety net. but he's already said that he's going to fire till the and then he's likely to remain of formidable force in, in the opposition. then perhaps we'll run in the next elections as well. pakistan is a democracy, but there are, there are so many actors. they're both in parliament, the supreme court, the military, the intelligence, and there are also numerous accusations of foreign meddling. abraham himself said
3:07 pm
that his political faith or the current political faith is the result of a 4 in aided coo. and he specifically accused the united states. uh, meddling cave and mentioned one specific official donald lee who is assistant secretary of state in charge of. busy south and central asian affairs, a man who's been working a lot in our region. and that a lots and lots of speculations that this ousting of enron has a lot to do with pakistan. making its foreign policy far more multi vectors and trying not to distance itself from the united states. they still are in favor of strong ties with america, but all branching out to china, russia and the rest. as you mentioned, i had a chance to interview him last month, and i hope we can run the one of the eclipse from that interview. let me just go
3:08 pm
back in history. when the cold war was, you know, ravaging the whole of the world, the world was divided into blocks like a son moved into the united states. we became part of the block in the cold war with the u. s. in the actually stead neutral, but it was very close to the soviets. now when i look back, i think initially august and needed help because of when we became independent, we way bob rushed, the millions of refugees and bug is done. we needed help. but you know, beyond 10 years or so, we shouldn't then be non aligned, independent country. us stood on feet, not rely on a we became part of a block because we got for an aide. when you look back for a nate as a curse for a country, because you do not fix your systems,
3:09 pm
you do not raise your never revenue. you don't increase your export. you rely on hand out and it stops. a country evolving and developing and becoming self reliant. so the world being divided into cold war blocks and bugs and becoming part of a block. when you look back at it stopped us from developing as a country. it does seem as though emron cons popularity is c, like with the west really did a u turn after he came to moscow in february and met with president peterson. i suppose it went downhill even before that and he himself, um is pretty open about it. he said that it was important for him, for pakistan to have an independent and multi vector on foreign policy, which includes ties with china, ties with russia, a joint attempt to do something about afghanistan. he was very,
3:10 pm
very passionate about it. and he was also very open that pakistan is reliance on the united states and, you know, cause pakistan a lot and gave very little i'm in, it's not the secret that they, americans essentially look the way and it allowed pakistan to develop a nuclear bomb in return for pakistan is support for the arming of jackie dean in, in afghanistan during the soviet campaign there. and from then on pakistan to play the very active role in the american lab war on terror. but men, ha, tens of thousands of dad for pakistani, lost a lot of lost revenues, a lot of last infrastructure. and when i was in pakistan last time, you know, with the questions that many people and analyst and officials are asking. and you know, it's sort of a rhetorical question, but they're essentially saying that we've done a lot for america, but what has america done for us?
3:11 pm
and then not too many eloquent answers to that question. it's ultimately about, you know, how lobel security is organized and whether there is one country that decides everything or whether, you know, some sort of compromise or a certain arrangement could be achieved as a result of original consensus. and iran han has been a pakistan as well as many other regional players have been very, very open and our desire to finally bring peace to eurasia, which means developing economic ties with each other. and with afghanistan, one which i think americans were not particularly excited about, and you know, that both russia and i have to say many people in asia in south asia believe that the current events in ukraine is not just the, you know, by little russian ukrainian struggle they're part of a much bigger struggle for, you know, more multi polar world to something that allows for peace and stability,
3:12 pm
not the only on the american terms, but, you know, bringing all the actors and all the decision decision maker in awe. joe biden has tried and apparently failed to persuade india to cancel its important russian oil. that's according to the white house following an online summit between the us president of india's prime minister, new delhi is coming on the increasing criticism from some western countries over its refusal to move against russia. they are the largest democracy in the world. we have a strong defense relationship with them. we obviously would prefer that india move away from their long term history of non alignment g 77, partnership with russia. well, the worst meeting between indian prime minister and not into b. u. s. a. today is a contentious issue off late america has been trying to put furniture
3:13 pm
on new daily to one. the students itself from school with rich india has shared article relationship, strategy partnership, india, eliza, moscow for reference and arms. how the supplies of arms come from most for india. and this is something america would like to change. we believe that is not in their best interest to continue to invest in russia. equipment in our requirement going forward is that they downscale types of equipment that they're investing in and look to brush more in the types of things that will make us continue to be compatible from the defense policy of india. the other issue which the u. s. fines didn't use is in the us for cheese or for the most school on discounted prices. ever since the green crisis,
3:14 pm
india has shown your geology or the green issue, the united nations. and i want that word before the united nations against russia. india also is not going to budge under any there show which these guys are which tries to i genes, relationship steady, independence, industrial complex, which is well within range of a good sigh. but on the other side is the port of mario book, which is where another group of ukrainian forces troops as well as nationalist elements of also been surrounded. they have already lost a significant part of the port, which has been liberated by russian forces. but again, this means that
3:15 pm
a significant amount of ukrainian troops have now been split and encircled. it all came at a tremendous cost. ukrainian nationalists made fortresses out of people's homes and neighborhoods, even as they forbid them from leaving those homes under the penalty of death. human shields on top of scorched earth. this is the right bank of marble or but downtown and city center fighting here was especially ferocious. but these at least over now people are once again that the streets no longer hiding in basement. some of them with what possessions they have left on cards, their apartments and houses bud. some buildings are more or less.
3:16 pm
okay. others, as you can see, are completely destroyed, burned, and on the verge of collapse. mere streets away now are the, there is, you know, the fighting the combat yet people here they that him so much as turn and local or flinch at the sound of explosions and gunfire. wherever you go and liberated areas . todd and weary civilians pull cards piled with their possessions or firewood loaded with water. for weeks they had been unable to do even that. now that the shock and horror of battle have worn off, they speak frankly. he really, he and i enough to say used us as human shields. there's nationalist monsters with dr. intel residential neighborhoods. fire something very loud and run away before the return. fire came. they used us and even took away our food. it's the same
3:17 pm
story all over the city. the nationalists, who are predominantly from west and regions of ukraine, have always viewed the pro russian east of the country with disdain. oh, they despised us, we all knew it. even children, they would make them sing the ukrainian anthem before and after lessons. and if they refused, their grades would be lowered and the parents were too scared to complain. when booth and spoke of genocide in ukraine against russian peoples and russian culture . this is what he meant. the kidnappings, the secret prisons and torture, the brain, washing of thousands, western press ignored this. people were too scared to cry out for help. you said you've got years, they told us. if we have to retreat my room, what to city of the face of the at the national, i sent this to us really back in 2014. i remember the national as fast to pete and
3:18 pm
asked to take it. women in the keel had been get fast, called amount defenders, and one of them turned around and told happy who sadly came here to defend jesus with come to make mincemeat out of he. and that's what they're doing now. we're at gazda of r, t for mary opal racism and abuse that was amnesty international has the keys, poland, or been last year's migrant crisis on the bell. ruth border there was scruple for noted was those hypocrisy it is arbitrary detention and force sedation of those asylum seekers while now welcoming in more than 2 and a half 1000000 ukrainians with open arms. polish authorities have arbitrarily detained nearly 2000 asylum seekers who crossed into country from bella. ruth, in 2021 and subjected many of them to abuse. including strip searches in unsanitary overcrowded facilities. and in some cases, even to forcible sedation and tapering,
3:19 pm
to the behavior of the polish authorities, smacks of racism and hypocrisy. poland must urgently extend its marble compassion for those entering the country from ukraine to all those crossing its borders to seek safety. the border crisis with by the roof peak in november as thousands of migrants and refugees tried to reach the e. u. 3 poland was brought in a state of emergency and deployed more than 12000 troops to prevent the crossings claiming the arrivals threat and national security. police authorities also long denied any media or even humanitarian access to those on the frontier. despite the freezing temperatures and several so called areas of exclusion remain in place to this day, the poland, not alone in its 2 face to approach the international community has rushed to help you, cranium, migrants erased billions of dollars in aid, while ignoring other refugees. politicians on celebrities raised about $11000000000.00 and a recent international drive called stand up for ukraine. organizers say that more
3:20 pm
than $4000000.00 ukrainian refugees will receive funding from the event. it's an outpouring of support, unlike was being seen regarding migraines from warsaw nation, relatively european. they look like any european family that you would live next door to. this is not a developing 3rd well nation 15 your or is it because the u. s. wouldn't like what syrian refugees would tell them. the american dream is aligned, there is no such thing. we're living on our land. what do they have to do with this? they hired band. it gave them money to control us law. one of the americans don't care if civilians live or die, they only care about the militants. i definitely don't expect the u. s. president to visit us because he doesn't care about the syrian people. he doesn't care if we are hungry or not. all he seeks is his personal entrance. well, let's discuss this further now with that down cavalier. human and labor rice lawyer . thank you for joining us on. the program is good to see. now that you did not
3:21 pm
have the lights, he flag warsaw as treatments of middle east asylum seekers on the believers. boda. yes, they're absolutely right. and it's not just poland, it's europe and the united states. there's been this double standard in regards to ukrainian refugees who are univer universally. welcome and others, particularly from africa or haiti, or latin america who countries are trying to keep out in fact, bite in his deported a record number of patients from the united states. i do think poland has questions to answer from acumen a terrier law perspective for it's mash math, pushed back sedation and arbitrary detentions on the bell. every border. of course, countries have an obligation to welcome migrants, particularly if they're seeking asylum. people have a right to apply for asylum and nearly every covenant human rights government,
3:22 pm
international covenant that you can think of has providers that prevent in, prohibit discrimination based on national origin next to the religion, et cetera. and so, you know, clearly poland who's taking in ukrainians, but keeping others out based on again, their national origin of necessity. that would be in clear violation of numerous covenants that poland is a party to now also is welcoming almost $2600000.00 refugees from ukraine. is this about something more than just a desire to help? do you think? i think, yes, i mean, i think it is about racism. it's about is you showed in your presentation about welcoming people who look like us. i think it's also, of course, part of the campaign against russia. you know, again,
3:23 pm
because russia is the one that's invaded, they feel they have the moral high ground here as opposed to in the case of syria words, the west that clearly was behind the war. there are yemen where the west is backing saudi arabia in a much more brutal war war than we're seeing in syria. and yet we don't even hear about that. and we don't hear about refugees from their being welcomed anywhere. so yeah, i mean, this is all very political how this is being treated. poland, deputy premier says that they treat ukrainian differently because they are culturally closer than middle east refugees. does that claim stand up to scrutiny in your opinion? well no, because of course, you know, there's muslims that live in pope and these are all multi ethnic societies in europe who had muslims for many, many years. there's been a lot of,
3:24 pm
you know, cross pollen ization for lack of a better term between the muslim world in the christian world. if you want to call that, call europe, that over centuries, you know, so just simply say, oh, you know, these folks have a similar culture as similar culture. do you know, one asked asked that value, human labor rights lawyer many, thanks for your time. appreciate. thank you. thank you very much and thank you for keeping company here and i see international as always you'll find plenty more news debate and analysis on our website r. c dot com ah ah
3:25 pm
ah l look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such orders at conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence at the point, obviously is to great trust, rather than fear. i would like to take on various jobs with artificial intelligence
