ah ah, notes in india interests. that's how washington has described the countries in ports of russian arms and oil. as the us ramped up pressure on new delhi to stop dealing with moscow. russian life forces edge, closer to victory in the city of mario pulse, saying they've now taken full control up. a local port correspondent is on the ground tanks roll into a thought. the final stronghold of ukrainian radical troops with the ukrainian propaganda video cooling for the brutal execution of russian troops. folks outrage on social media. it depicts a woman flitting,
9:01 am
a russian so just wrote with a fickle and a style reminiscent of terrorist groups like islamic state. with hello and welcome. it's 4 pm here in moscow, and this is dottie international with the latest news headlines. now the us says it's quote, not in india's interest to keep importing russian oil and weapons. president joe biden pulled pressure on prime minister ranger modi during an online summit between the leaders. 2 plus 2 talks also took place between the us on the indian defense ministers on top diplomats. but the americans once again urging new delhi to step away from its partnership with moscow. in the aftermath of the discussions, the white house admitted that the u. s. has so far been unable to convince india to stop dealing with russia. the president both conveyed that we are here to help them diversify their means of importing oil. again, our,
9:02 am
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 that well, it was quite an exhaustive meeting. many topics were discussed, but one recurring theme we heard from the u. s. side of the discussion was u. s. official telling india what they feel is in india, the interest that we just reject saki, talking about what she thought was india's best 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. 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 are looking at the energy purchase from russia,
9:03 am
i would suggest that your attention shouldn't be focused on europe, which probably we do buy some energy which is necessary for our energy security. but i suspect, looking at the figures, probably total purchases for the month would be less than what you would have gotten 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 russia is doing to ukraine. so this seems to be
9:04 am
a recurring theme. us 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 economic interests will be seeing a further reaction to today's meeting. as the week goes on, the us secretary of state also took the chance to throw some punches at new dollies human rights record. well, let's discuss these developments with a d now ceo of global policy in science thing tongue. i thank you very much for joining us on the program. it's good to see you now. so we see the us is highlighting in human rights now, but washington had previously positive positive appraisal of india democratic values. so what do you make of us? well, 1st of all, i want to recall grade that india has been one of the most successful democracy
9:05 am
that the world of the democracy in the new thing for the world. i believe that it is india with, with diversity, with just the sheer size of i don't think that there's any other country that can really future india about what demography should be like and how to run a 115 government the shades and and by far we have been able to uphold the democratic values still as far as that's concerned. i believe the government as well as every citizen and all of the list and the intelligence in india and across the world. if convinced that we will not be good on how democracy function. you know, we might be, we can teach a lesson to do other countries and we do appreciate, you know,
9:06 am
constructive feedback. we do have libraries and we do appreciate that different forms of the most with the might exist. but then how do we run ours is absolutely operator one leverage. do you think the us actually has to push india away from his partnership with russia and do you think that's likely to happen? well ok, so if you're talking about in terms of leverage us is indeed one of the most important breeding partners both in terms of as well as other way know. you know that whether it's the boat spacecraft we have, you know, had used to be us about $100000000.00. if it is about ships, boats, about $53000000.00. it's just been increasing every year. as far as the security and concerned are in both from russia have decreased from 75 percent
9:07 am
to about $49.00, but then in the 15 years now when you look at it, it's like that. certainly some of the leverage that the us in terms of you know, the security dealing even the s 400 issue will been in discussion. gotcha. has not we applied on doing the i don't think that you would do actually, you know, would the sanctions on india, but nope, that's the word. that's all we're trying. it will never fall back. india is playing, you know, that's ordered but all where it needs to balance. it has to be balance. while the pedro between russia and the united states with russia, india still has a lot of will security trade happening right now with the us. know we have a positive balance of freedom. we want to increase that. unlike china,
9:08 am
where you know, the balance of breed has been negative and increased. now our dependence on time as the 3 by 33 percent, 2014 are input from them. so the us definitely in terms of trade in terms of the b as some leverage. but that doesn't mean that, you know, india does not have any leverage on the united states. that international politics that every country has found, leverage on to the other. russia or the united states, we do know and we do understand that both of them will try to push india india into onto their own directions and india autonomy and the success of it lives in the fact that there was that if need be and we would when we have the capacity right to become the players who can mediate between these 2 competing interests in global politics,
9:09 am
you will never have absolutely perfectly aligned. and i, you will always need countries in tanks who are online policy with this now somehow can work it into a mighty alignment. now, in the way, we are in a place where we can brokers sort of beef some sort of truth between these 2 countries. even if temporarily and india has so far money, say neutral, while doing business with both russia in the us. and do you think it sustainable? would you think they'll be able to stay neutral throughout this? know about how long it goes on and how much pressure is put on idea. well, the short answer is yes, but it's going to be extremely hot weather sustainable will only see, i mean, i cannot tell you the future. but we also have to appreciate what we mean by neutral my understanding and i think in india on the standing of neutrality is that
9:10 am
neutrality is not always speaking the median position neutrality is that wherever it's needed. so for example, when they will in casual happening, what happening be openly whenever it's needed, we will openly pre in what we to be free and whenever needed, we will openly, we will not speak and that neutrality put up though i don't think that you'd rather be literally always mean that we are taking the median position. i know i talked about the tightrope. i don't think that it's really about, you know, walking on the rope. that's just the wrong metric that you, it's really about, you know, our lean but both, depart you as partners and trying to figure out what are the best outcomes. we don't have to look at things in all the time. that's enough. it'll also be global politics. can be, you know, some game a bank, but there are players who can look it situation with, you know,
9:11 am
more collaborative and then have a much better out all of the but even look up a check of a d. c global policy and size thing. time. 20, thanks for your time on during sign. thank you so much. the me wallow packaging european leader to show restraint in the sanctions against moscow has the international oil cause how was that an am ball go on, russian feel would devastate global market. you can find more details on our website on t t dot com. in that battle for the dawn by city of mario paul has entered its final stage with russian lead forces saying that now fully retaken the local port. the remaining ukrainian radical trips reportedly hold up inside the as of steel factory, with russian tank sound leave again for decisive strike on the strong call. his artes more danced the reports from the scene.
9:12 am
this several delivery of the art was industrial complex, which is the last frontier before the da feel good with national may left. i have with them to try up all of the sites. these buildings are amongst the last still held by ukranian nationalists on the east bank of mario po, outside the industrial zone. there also a nest of radical nationalists, snipers, and machine guns. hooley tanks could reliably dislodge these buildings, fortunately, are devoid of civilians. more than
9:13 am
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 far at it. the people inside are among the last held hostage by ukrainian nationalists. from if you were speaking about the situation in mary, you, paul, the residential parts of the city have been liberated. some individual pockets of resistance remain, such as snipers and other troops hiding in basements and multi story buildings. but it isn't over yet. thea's 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. oh,
9:14 am
with uncle philip gospel, he'll be back with it. with plenty of it you can see with which these light is replace. it is once withdrawing to the re all resupplied take a short break that's from here. those have been 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 they're, the nationalists will have no more civilians to hide behind where i'd get the of
9:15 am
r t for mary you pull. as of me, i now see forces inside mary, i'll pull, have accused russia of attacking them with chemical weapons with at least 3 people allegedly hospitalized. as a result, keeps defense, ministry says it's trying to verify this information. while the russian military has not yet commented on the allegations, canada has spent around $700000000.00 on training. the ukranian military including his top fighting for, was the neo neo nazi as of the battalion spot earlier produced by ot, with defense minister that it would not help the regiment which he claimed was a small group of, quote rotten apples about 2000 members of the ukrainian national guard conducted training as part of ot with bit to help key of strength and his military photos, posted by ukraine's military and social media clearly shows some soldiers wearing as of battalion patches as they participated with canadian service members. but
9:16 am
also has tried to distance itself from the controversial length. with this defense ministry insisting it was the key of responsibility to, to check which soldiers take part. the canadian armed forces have never given any training whatsoever to members of is off italian service men participating. and operation unifier, have always been ordered not to train with members of these off battalion and not to have any contact with them. and he walked vis. kennestone said canada is deliberately turning a blind eye to certain aspects of what was happening. can ukraine? they had a policy of don't ask and don't tell since 2014, when the canadian government cooperated and collaborated to overthrow the democratic lee elected government of ukraine and bring it in. qu, 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
9:17 am
a democratic government. they don't tell canadians about the, the war on the don bass. and they don't tell them about the, the neo nazis that are in the militia and in the security services, they 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. western countries, including the us, have come on to fresh criticism for that handling of ukrainian refugees compared to how they treated civilians. fang from conflicts in the middle east and africa off the us led forces that carried out military interventions that we've been looking into. the trials and tribulations of refugees from libya to united states are prepared to commit more than $1000000000.00 in humanitarian assistance to help get relief to millions of ukrainians affected by the war in
9:18 am
ukraine. well, we've also will walk up 100000 ukrainians, united states her nature violated the international resolutions of the u. n. s. c. they shelled 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 will decide who will reign and who shall not. who shall stay and who shall go nato, which 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
9:19 am
for libyans, the nato alliance, usaa germany, and the pretext of protecting civilians have been the biggest lies ever. now, all these lies are gone. 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. ah
9:20 am
we are fully aware that the u. s. was one of the main facts is behind the destruction of libyan infrastructure and the internal systems in 2011, while pretending to be the patron of freedoms and human rights. these of co slogans . if one day i met the u. s. president, i'll express my hope that those slogans be sense in reality, and that there will be human rights and children's rights. as you 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, 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 a case of syria words, the west. that clearly was behind the war. there are yemen, you know,
9:21 am
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. i was trained to, i am a strange cruelty radicalism and extreme as them reminiscent of islamic state terrorists as moscow's reaction to ukrainian propaganda. video cooling for the brutal killing of russian soldiers should warn you, you might find the following. im just disturbing these i screenshot says we cannot show you the complete footage because of its extremist content. the video to picks a woman, a field slitting of russian soldiers throat with a thick in a star resembling that of their toys. terrorist grapes ha. video makes its threats against russian soldiers in the ukrainian language. with english subtitles, russia has begun a criminal investigation into the matter when it's not the 1st time that anti
9:22 am
russian statements have turned gruesome in ukraine. a t v presenter, early a calling for court for murdering russian children saying he agreed with hitler's henchmen adolfo, eichmann statements that even an enemy's kids should be killed. and the ukranian doctor who had se mobile hospital organizations that russian soldiers should be castrated, both of them later back tracked following public outrage, journalists, blogger, and historian. nor boys. the knowledge says there has been essentially no reaction from western media. what struck me about it is not, and this is going to sound weird, but it's not that somebody in ukraine might make this because i've seen some really horrible stuff coming out of there over the past 10 years. but that nobody in the western media, no one at all, even questioned, it even raised a said wait a minute guys, this is problematic, this is bad. know that i will not, nobody said anything about it. because again, by this logic adopted in the west,
9:23 am
nothing anybody in ukraine does can be wrong, and brushes can do no. right. and so there's an objectively existing incentives for ukrainian nationalists to create this kind of literally isis like 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, i've been expecting this kind of stuff from the followers to step on monday for but dip i was, i thought that there were decent people in the west, we call it out, and there don't seem to be any polish or socrates have broken into and seized a russian diplomatic building in warsaw saying it will be used to accommodate
9:24 am
refugees from ukraine. the polish capitals man claims that taking over russian property is, quote, a symbolic way to show support for keith that the russian ambassador to poland has slammed the move as illegal years ago, b sham little shade. these actions are a gross violation of both the vienna conventions of international law and the inter governmental agreement between the soviet union and poland in the poland has not terminated disagreements and continued to be obligations under it. despite actually violating it are so called partners in the west of apparently decided that the law was not written for them and that they can do whatever they want. that corresponds with their understanding of a world order based on rules that they themselves establish and then observe or violate them as they please. there was another similar case in 2015 once again on the basis of a polish court, which ruled to return to the former owner, a spot of land where one of the embassy buildings had been built. and the new owner of the al, seized the building, demolished it, and built an office center there. western powers
9:25 am
a ramping at the accusations of russian involvement in the killing of civilians in the kiev suburb of butcher with british prime minister by his johnson. going as far as saying it looked like a genocide. i'm afraid when you look at what's happening in, in boot yoga with the revelations that we're seeing from what brooding has done in, in ukraine, which, you know, doesn't look far short of genocide or to me that the british government has stopped short of recognizing certain aspects of his own colonial history as genocide, including massacres and mass starvation in india, despite persistent calls to acknowledge it as such. let's take a look at some of those cases. ah, in my hate indians they'll be sleep people. the famine was their own fault for breeding like
9:26 am
rabbit me. ah ah, it's not just starting from india. if you look at the diet process of british colonization there and do that by the gods. they killed and metric, the red indians fear their magical the natives in south america. they killed and massacre people in south africa whom they wanted to be taken slaves to america and took slaves over there. in 1943 and been god, god created the bad men made it because when the japanese and other forces were
9:27 am
coming, the band on the boat went in batavia and abandoned the boat. transportation lead to badly affected the food transportation, and about a 1000000 people in been involved died us, todd, wish i was touching the butcher before accusing others. look at yourself to me. that's what you watch, what you have done to the world and what you are doing to the work. the problem is english still thinks that it can be a batch. it still things voters think still that he's driving. he's still in a bias. i've been telling them, mr. boris, you don't have gotten these now to exploit. ah, iran has set new conditions for the u. s. to resume the nuclear deal to runs. foreign minister added president biden should lift sanctions to show quote goodwill
9:28 am
. if biden has intentions to lift sanctions and return to the nuclear deal, he should issue an executive order to show his goodwill instead of applying sanctions on natural and legal persons in iran, negotiations towards renewing the nuclear agreement between iran and the us have sold both countries blame each other for failing to meet commitments. the deal was signed in 2015 and lifted sanctions imposed by the bomber administration. but former us president donald trump left the deal, and iran then violated it ramping up its nuclear program. thrown on washington also continue to sanction each other. iran has added 24 american officials or the terrorism on human rights violations of iranians. we discussed prospects for a renewal of the nuclear deal with side mohammed moran. the a to ron university professor. he thinks radians are tired of trying to safety agreement to no avail. the iranians are tired of being the side that always has to
9:29 am
keep the nuclear dio ally. it seems that the pressure on bided in the united states and through the pro is where the lobby has the upper hand. and we have to wait and see if the united states seriously wants the deal is going to have to overcome these obstacles because the iranians are not going to accept anything less than the full implementation of the nuclear deal. on the one hand, the united states is isolated, relatively speaking. iran is empowered because of its the need of the international community for its energy. and also iran's nuclear program is much more developed than before thanks to the united states because it tore up the to deal. and so you run advantage program. so on all fronts, iran today is in a much stronger position than it was before compared to the united states. many thanks the company here, and i see international will be back in 30 minutes with mol.
9:30 am
them in the gold was signed on february, the 12th 2015 and it was meant to end military conflicts in ukraine between government forces and on bus militia groups. the agreement stipulated that both sides would withdraw heavy weapons to an equal distance from the contact line. this lived several 100 settlements trapped between opposing forces. local civilians became unwitting witnesses to and victims of the continuing civil war. thousands of people still live in small towns and villages that have become the new front line. they call this area of the gray zone.
