ah, to join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah, not in india is interesting. that's how washington describes india's imports of russian arms and oil as the us ramped up pressure on new delhi during a summit between the 2 countries. intense fighting continues in the battles from our yo pole, as don bass forces. now say they have taken control of the cities court. meanwhile, our chief follows at tank battle near the cities as our field factory, a stronghold of ukrainian nationalist troops with ukrainian propaganda. video calling for the killing of russian troops spreads on
2:01 am
social networks. it depicts a woman in a field, splitting a russian soldiers throat with a sickle and a style resembling that of the terrorist group is law mc state. and ukraine to parliament celebrates the desecration of a berlin memorial to soviet soldiers, and germany prevents russian officials from attending the anniversary of the liberation of book and world, not the concentration camp. we ask people around the globe, what they think about the history surrounding the liberation of such camps. the idea it was the allied forces, the u. s. france, britain in the soviet union. important to know these back. what happened, anything forces to be aware that many different people participated with broadcasting from our studios in moscow. this is our international. i'm john, tom. glad have you with us. or now the us says it's quote,
2:02 am
not in india's interest to import russian oil and weaponry. as washington increases, pressure on new delhi with an online summit between joe biden and indian pm no remedy. 2 plus, 2 talks also took place between the u. s. and indian defense ministers and top diplomats, they focused on the aftermath of the coven pandemic. pressing issues in the indo pacific region and the security situation in afghanistan, india's imports of russian, oil and weaponry, also appeared high on washington's agenda. the white house made clear to the public after the talk that india should not increase its importance of russian oil is the core of the president. both conveyed that we are here to help them diversify their means of importing oil. again, are the imports from the united states are already significant for much bigger than the imports that they get from russia. and we, of course, the president conveyed very clearly that it is not in their interest to increase
2:03 am
that well, it was quite an exhaustive meeting. many topics were discuss but one recurring theme we heard from the us side of the discussion was us official telling india what they feel is in india, the interest that we just read, jen, saki, talking about what she thought was india is that the interest? it's not a secret that india has greatly increased the amount of oil it's buying from russia, despite not violating us sanctions on russia. they are increasing the amount of oil they're buying from russia. us oil giants are not thrilled about that. and here's how india is, foreign minister responded when asked about these words from the states and us feelings about what the country's best interest is. if you're looking at a node you purchased this from russia, i would suggest that to your attention shouldn't be focused on your own, which probably, ah, we do buy some energy which is necessary for energy security. but i suspect,
2:04 am
looking at the figures, probably our total petitions for the month would be less than want to go to doesn't an optimal. another concern of us leaders is the amount of weaponry that india is purchasing from russia. this point about half of the weapons india imports come from russia. and prior to the meeting, lloyd austin expressed that same theme that it was not in the interests of india to continue purchasing weapons from russia. now we also heard from antony blank and urging an end to these weapons deals, we continue to urge all countries to avoid major new transactions for russian weapon systems, particularly in light of what rushes doing to ukraine. so this seems to be a recurring theme u. s. leaders do not like india, making purchases from russia, whether it's oil, whether it's weapons, and they argue that they know best. and they know what is really in india's
2:05 am
economic interests. we'll be seeing a further reaction to today's meeting. as the week goes on, a reporter at the indian newspaper, the hindu says, the russian fuel that india imports is only a drop in the bucket compared with what europe buys from moscow. there was a lot of criticism. and oh means on india, which is off auto that he know going to buy you some motor oil from a discount which it shows offered. you actually buys about one percent. what the, when moved was one of the, one to 2 percent for the entire oil from russia. compared to this, you know, brought 15 percent more island gas from russia than what did the previous months that again, when the highlights are one side of the criticism. i mean, there's a lot of a lot, lot lot been on this issue or sitting in the bank of wine. so that again puts
2:06 am
things to context and should be laid is understood a criticism to rest about 60 percent of indian forces construed of russian equipment. and major defense due to the pipeline. so for instance, $400.00 or forget to get signed ipos. charlotte and so on. my whole seat is of them. a lot of these are going to be cited, govern greatest of negotiation. so that you didn't know that dependence will continue. i mean you sort of thing is just going on like you know, move it. busy different and i think that's just what the meanwhile, opec is urging european leaders to show restraint in their sanctions against moscow . as the oil cartel warned that a potential embargo on russian fuel would devastate international markets. more details on our website,
2:07 am
r t dot com. now the battle continues to rage in marble as dumbass forces reported that they have taken control of the cities port. meanwhile, the russian military is advancing on the as of steel factory. a strong hold of ukrainian nationalist forces are g correspondent, but i guess you have reports from the ground. this several delivery of yeah. i was docile. corporate, which is the last frontier before the duffel go the subway. ready nationalists of may. there start with some the trauma fall of the size. these buildings are amongst the lost still held by ukrainian nationalists on the east bank of mary opal outside the industrial zone. there also a nest of radical nationalist snipers and machine gunners. hooley tanks could
2:08 am
reliably dislodge these buildings. fortunately are devoid of civilians. more than a 100 still held. as human shields by nationalists have taken refuge in a nearby school school number 56. the tanks are careful not for fire at it. the people inside are among the last held hostage by ukrainian nationalists. or if you were speaking about the situation in mary u. par the residential parts of the city have been liberated. some individual pockets of resistance remain, such as sleepers and other troops hiding in basements and multi story buildings. but it isn't over yet. fierce combat, most of its close quarters, still rages across mario bull. unlike regular ukrainian military troops in the city who have surrendered in their hundreds, the nationalists show no such eagerness to end this
2:09 am
this with he'll be back with. you could see with which these type is replacing is once withdrawing to the reopen resupply and take a short break that's from here. those of n, with the liberation of the last few residential areas still held by radicals. a new phase will begin a full out assault on the vast as of steel and iron works complex. and there
2:10 am
the nationalists will have no more civilians. to hide behind. more i'd guess the of r t for mario bull, ukrainian officials say russia allegedly used a chemical weapon in multiple citing reports by as of nationalist forces about the russian military, supposedly using an unknown, toxic substance against ukrainian troops and civilians. a leader of the, as of battalion said 3 people showed signs of chemical poisoning that did not appear fatal. britton's top diplomat was quick to react and said the claims were being investigated. the russian military has not commented on the allegation so far . ottawa has spent almost $900000000.00 on training, the ukranian military, which includes the infamous neo nazi as battalion. that's a despite earlier pledges by canada's defense minister that the country would not provide any support to the regiment which he described as a small group of quote rotten apples. now about 2000 members of the ukrainian
2:11 am
national guard, participated in the training as part of ottawa's bid to help kids strengthen its military photos posted by ukraine's military on social media and clearly shows some soldiers wearing as a battalion patches provided as they participate in the training with canadian service men, but ottawa has been distancing itself from the claims with the defense ministry saying it had been ukraine's responsibility to conduct checks of the soldiers who would participate. the canadian armed forces have never given any training whatsoever to members of days off italian service, men participating and operation unifier, have always been ordered not to train with members of these up italian and not to have any contact with them. as i were accurate. kennestone says, canada is deliberately turning a blind eye to certain aspects of what's happening in ukraine. they had a policy of don't ask and don't tell since 2014. when the canadian government
2:12 am
cooperated and collaborated to overthrow the democratic lee elected government of ukraine and bring and act who government, which was riddled with nazis. they, the canadian government has been creating a facade over this government trying to make it appear. it's a democratic government. they don't tell canadians about the the war on the don bash and they don't tell them about the. ready the neo nazis that are in the militia and the security services are very much anti russian. and the canadian government is very much anti russian. so they've created a false narrative for 8 years, and they're sticking to it on restrained a cruelty radicalism and extremism reminiscence reminiscent of islamic state that's russia's reaction to a ukrainian propaganda video, calling for the killing of russian soldiers and being circulated on social media.
2:13 am
the video depicts a woman and a field slitting a russian and soldiers throat with a sickle and a style resembling that of the terrorist group is on the state. these are screenshots, as you cannot show, the complete footage because of its extreme is content. video makes its threats against russian soldiers and ukrainian language with english subtitles, russia has begun to criminal investigation into the matter. it is not the 1st time that anti russian statements have turned to gruesome in ukraine. a tv presenter earlier called for murdering russian children, saying he agreed with hitler's henchmen, adolf eichmann statement that even an enemy's kids should be killed and a ukrainian doctor who had a mobile hospital organisation said russian soldiers should be castrated. both of them later backtracked, following a public outrage. journalist blogger and historian, new bourgeois mileage, says there has been essentially no reaction from western media. what struck me about it is not. and this is going to sound weird,
2:14 am
but it's not that somebody in ukraine might make this because i've seen some really horrible stuff coming out of the over the past 10 years. but that nobody in the western media, no one at all, even questioned it even raised it said wait a minute guys, this is problematic. this is bad to know that i will not, nobody said anything about it. because again, by this logic adopted in west, nothing anybody in ukraine does can be wrong. and russians can do no. right. and so there's an objectively existing incentives for ukrainian nationalists to create this kind of literally isis slight propaganda. because they're not going to get cut off called out for it. nobody in the west, nobody in their eyes and sponsors. he's actually going to mind. and that's why they're doing it. and maybe maybe they feel they've got a little too far this time. but again, there's been no backlash in the west it's, it's just a that's to me, the truly atrocious part because honestly,
2:15 am
i've been expecting this kind of stuff from the followers to step on monday for. but didn't i was i thought that there were decent people in the west who we call it out and there don't seem to be any the white helmets, a controversial group that presents itself as a civil defense of the syrian opposition have made a video tutorial for ukraine with advice about how to deal with bombardment by russian forces in the manner on which we are offering tips to the ukrainian people and our colleagues in the civil defense and ukraine on how to deal with the russian bombing skill that we have acquired over the past years during double strike in which we lost many of our colleagues involved in the white helmet founded by a former british army officer, call themselves a search and rescue group and work on rebel controlled territory in syria. they've received a lot of publicity in the western establishment media for accusing the russian and
2:16 am
syrian militaries of targeting civilians. but the organization has struggled with allegations that it's linked to islamic militant groups, and has even participated in staging provocations in the syrian civil war. with ali risk, a political commentator and a contributor for the middle east focused news site i'll monitor says the white helmets might be useful to ukrainian forces for learning how to fabricate events, to sway global public opinion against russia. they could become useful in terms of trying to say, joe, make perfect videos or try to fabricate events, i think and up particular perspective. yes, it could be useful because when you,
2:17 am
when you want to fabricated and so i don't think that the difference in the terrain or the general war environment makes a big difference. so in that particular aspect that they could learn maybe from the there is in syria, the white helmets on how to fabricate how to use. so no equipment to try and give the impression that there is more credibility, the reports where they are in british or in other european media. you know, they continue this process of demonizing russia and presenting the white helmets and those in ukraine as being a heroes. so you know, what strikes me in the general coverage of this, of these events which are taking place is how they describe the vision between good guys and bad guys. and try to get the impression that what is taking place as a fight between wall out good, an auto evil. and this is being, this coverage is being applied in the wide how much story is being applied generally, also in how the west is portraying this conflict. ukraine's parliament has praised
2:18 am
the vandalism of a berlin memorial to soviet troops who had fought nazis during world war 2. thank you now agrees with the spray painted graffiti that russians are, quote, the real fascists and you came to parliament reference to the phrases scrawled onto the memorial, saying that ukrainian blood is on russia hans and put in is stolen. the russian embassy in berlin has requested germany's foreign ministry to make sure that there is a swift response to the vandalism, including that the perpetrators should be made responsible for the damage. meanwhile, russian and bell, russian officials were not allowed to attend a ceremony in germany last weekend. commemorating allied forces liberation of the book and walls, not for concentration camp. the museums administration says it took look the measure because the rushes current military operation in ukraine. the liberation 77th anniversary was marked on sunday. concentration camp was freed by the us army
2:19 am
forces the end of world war 2, acting on information supplied by polish and soviet prisoners. the soviet military liberated numerous concentration camps during the war, including the biggest camps, my neck and outfits. we asked people from around the world, what they know about the allies liberation of the nazi concentration camps. the earlier it was the allied forces, the us in france, britain, in the soviet union, the red army liberated the concentration camps, primarily, i guess maybe perhaps the american a little bit. the soviet was held by lindley, there is no way that the british american army could delivery the concentration camps without also having an army attacking from the east. at the same time, i think the american in the or being liberated, the question comes, formed the west and maybe the washing on the, i'm not sure some of the can 4 liberated by russian evans i america was found by
2:20 am
british important to know these fact what happened and it's important to be aware that to many different people to say to the executive vice president of the eurasia center, a think tank. earl rasmussen says that by not allowing russia and bell roost to attend to the ceremony. germany is doing a discredit to history. i think it's tragic when we have such important events on history and you're literally rewriting or you're wiping out a key component of that history. it's interesting that that the camp was liberated from the nazis. and now we've got a key component of key countries that are that fought against that to support the liberation and that are trying to and we're fighting ultra national fashion groups today. not inviting kind of
2:21 am
a big irony there. i think it's tragic that we've, that we've taken current events and political agendas to, to manipulate the path and actually do discredit. i think for the memory of the liberation of the camp and, and the victory polish authorities have broken into and seized a russian diplomatic building in warsaw. so it can be used to accommodate refugees from ukraine to polish capitals mayor has said that taking the russian property is, quote, a symbolic way to show support for key of amid the conflict. we heard from the russian ambassador to poland who had slammed the measure as a violation of international law. your lives go be. these actions are a gross violation of both the vienna convention suffer international law. and the inter governmental agreement between the soviet union in polar, are so called partners in the west have apparently felt that the law was not
2:22 am
written for them. and they can do whatever they want. that corresponds with their understanding world order based on rule that they themselves establish and that they observe for violate as they want more than 4500000 people have fled to ukraine, since the conflicts are up to a month and a half ago with over $2000000.00 ukranian, since he can refuge in the neighboring poland. polish authorities have gone to great length to support those displaced by the conflict and numerous poles have made donations for humanitarian assistance and even welcome to ukrainians to stay at their home. but human rights organization, amnesty international says the polish authorities, behavior, quote smacks of racism and in poxy, because while there's been an outpouring of support for your convenience, migrants from the middle east who have crossed the bell. russian border into poland are being held in prison like condition at overcrowded detention center. say that the wave of middle eastern asylum seekers peak last year with poland declaring
2:23 am
a state of emergency and deploying more than 12000 troops to its border. even saying that the migrants posed a threat to pull and national security. embassy international says hollins, the treatment of the middle eastern asylum seekers has been abusive. polish authorities have arbitrarily detained nearly 2000 asylum seekers to cross into country from bella luce, 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 tailoring to the behavior of a polish authority 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. we heard from some of the people whose lives have been torn apart by wars lead by western powers, particularly the u. s. let's take a look at how
2:24 am
u. s. policy has differed from supporting ukrainian refugees while rejecting people in need in nato, devastated libya with united states and prepared to commit more than 1000000000 dollars in humanitarian assistance to help get relief to millions of ukrainians affected by the war in ukraine. well, we've also will walk up 100000 ukrainians, united states her nature violated the international resolutions of the u. n. l. c. they shield and destroyed infrastructure and killed civilians. this was a foreign intervention in libya for which they must apologize and compensate for every brick they destroyed and every person they killed. the libyan people who
2:25 am
decide who will reign and who shall not. who shall stay and who shall go nato. i wish brazenly uses the power to plunder the wealth of african nations to day we will hold them accountable for all this, especially the u. s. and with the change of the world order, we will legally restore right for libyans, the nato alliance, usaa germany, and the pretext of protecting civilians have been the biggest lies ever. now, all these lies are god. we always emphasize that people are being used as a pretext for carrying out certain political objectives and projects sought by the international regime. we've seen this with syrian and libyan refugees.
2:26 am
ah we have the fully aware that the u. s. was one of the main sciences behind the destruction of libyan infrastructure and the internal systems in 2011 at the while pretending to be the patron of freedom isn't human rights would have ease of co slogans. one day i met the u. s. president and i will express my hope that those slogans be sense in reality, and that that will be human right. does not show tens rice as he pretend on your social media platforms. there's been this double standard in regards to ukrainian refugees who are universe universally. welcome and others, particularly from africa or haiti,
2:27 am
or latin america who countries are trying to keep out. i think it is about racism. it's about welcoming people who look like us. i think it's also, of course, part of the campaign against russia. 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, you know, where the west is backing saudi arabia in a much more brutal world 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 that does it for me, this, our stay with us throughout the day as we bring you more news and commentary, the 50 argentina. ah,
2:28 am
who is the aggression today? i'm authorizing the additional strong sanctions to day russia is the country with the most sanctions imposed against it. and number those constantly growing. i think you switch us list of course. sure. as we speak on the bill in your senior, mostly mine, or wish you were banding all in ports of russian oil and gas, new g i g with the letter from you know, where are you going to go to joe biden, imposing these sanctions on russia. you know, has destroyed the american economy. so there's your boomerang. ah
2:29 am
2:30 am
electricity. worst of all, they've had to watch as the war creeps ever closer to their homes and teach georgia to correct train, huge banassi terrain. you don't look i'm, we don't use that asleep. i was or to the dodgy good. so when time was there was bizarre, gave up a sad category just as you'd see with it left them on the line. you've parker say any with any of the i don't when you're doing a really difficult he's out. you're done with a lot of issues with her band was a little less name. yes. he's now yes. with god with all these really well. thank you so over the only other. uh huh. what for the yeah. who is any? yeah. you know what that though, but i use this.
