12:14 pm

12:17 pm
madame believes him run comes political views on the development of his country, just weren't serving us foreign policy games from this room. ron pon said that he has been, you know, threatened through a letter by the united states that the, the park is an establishment must for the a minus when policy will be, do not want to see him, ron con, as a prime minister, arkansas. why? because iraq on has the, you know, why it will go about the independent foreign policy. and it all started according to me in september 2021. when statesman and the director of ca, mr. burns, came in islam. was it a secret? was it not only in arkansas but also in india? non con starts to words, you know, providing not any military base to united states was not welcome by the state department and even the pentagon. and he basically publicly said
12:18 pm
a statement where he said that things will get tougher on being true because he knew what was coming on, just thing in the region of the world, despite us pressure, military cooperation between russia and india is continuing with new delhi recently receiving a shipment of rushes at 1000 s 400 or defense missile system. not comes the spy, top american officials urging the country to several times with moscow. we obviously would prefer that india move away from their long term history of 9 alignment g 77, partnership with russia. india has repeatedly said it holds a neutral position as regards that conflict in ukraine and has maintain that stance despite us coercion, russian, and in the close relationship stems from cold war allegiances. my colleague don quarter discussed with a panel of guess the way india strikes
12:19 pm
a balancing act with washington and moscow. united states has gone through this period of union naturalism, especially after the collapse of the soviet union. and they did exactly what they wanted in various parts of the go. but then this off of the reverse after that was including it all. and then in have gone just on. and that you did actually moment is all but now is with all the sanctions that they both on russia, most of the world is not in favor of this. and i would say that in fact, the sanctions are causing a lot of misery with potentially cause a lot of the all over the go because of distractions and means will be found to go around the sanctions that has happened in the case of donald and russia what we may buy from russia in a while in one month, you're a biased in one afternoon from russia. so therefore, to dallas, that your financing wall is ridiculous. do you think that these western sanctions
12:20 pm
on russia are ultimately going to result in a new world order? no, i think that they're going to destroy the basic economy for europe, since europe is still attached to it in the energy sector and in the agriculture sector to import from russia, it's going to create a disaster in europe with political consequences. it's not going to change, it's not going to be a you order. it's going to be something even worse than that. washington wants india to turn it back on russia. why do you think it's so important to the u. s. united states? and i'll decide what should be, want to see a long standing audition with shot meet certain specific needs. there's no reason why we should sacrifice our specific needs in our relationship with russia, who you asked about us doesn't offer guidance from us. this from us as to what they
12:21 pm
should do, they do what they want in terms of what the national interest are. and we will do what we need to do in terms of our national interest. we don't see our relationship with united states as much as a 0 sum game and, and united states is no one to tell us what should be our foreign policy of how we should pursue our national interest. and united states should be little more understanding and accommodating and not play this game that either you are with us or against us. this is called war thinking. this is not modern thinking. i made western calls for de escalation of the u. s. ukrainian crisis. there also, they also seem to want to do anything to harm russia, no matter what the cost. what does the us really want to achieve? basically, what do, what do you want to do is not to have any piece of discussions and try to do as much damage to russia and to europe at the same time. but what the united states doesn't see that we are being humanity is being driven towards
12:22 pm
a nuclear holocaust. if we continue like that, the issue now that should concern the west and russia is to start serious peace negotiations between nato and moscow. and between the united states and moscow, the wife of ukraine's opposition leader has asked you k prime minister boris johnson, to swap the tain british mercenaries for her husband. victor at mid truck was arrested this week by ukrainian security services. now since 2018 medical trip cause headed opposition platform for life, the 2nd largest party in the ukranian national event. he played a key role in negotiations between ukraine, russia on the people's republic of done yet can look out his wife, oksana mur. cheko claims the arrest was completely against the law and don't to

12:24 pm
to point out there's a risk. any testimony by prisoners could have been made under duress will be released from the she sent you know, someone you will fail from me. i'm really trying to be aware that you don't reach me. i think you're correct from day one. when we went to murder you pool, i always said like, we need to leave because because as i said before, don bus right is recognized as independent and hands as well. and if, if ukraine really wanted to avoid this conflict, they could have easily just said ok, we will leave, we will recognize independence. fortune beginning ukraine was good side would and then eventually i see they don't make the right decisions. that would end
12:25 pm
war good. a good example was out of media every time, new part of media they, they didn't want to negotiate with steps that could help. and the war like peacefully, it was like 1st time seeing reality may looted from like supermarkets, like civilians need food like survive after like in circles. and so they would take like food from the supermarkets, they would stop civilians from going out to get water like like in the supermarket that was being looted. they would stop civilians from taking like water. so stuff like that, which made themselves what taken another british mercenary, sean pinner,
12:26 pm
was captured this week as a prisoner of war. also in more people, along with hundreds of ukrainian switchers on the shore center. i'm a citizen. if the u. k. r was captured in very awful. i was fighting the area code 456 weeks. now i'm in the people's republic. we were in the fact chair. now we are full in early i was a tuesday morning. it was decided removed from phone from the area of the factory, but we didn't know exactly where about 4 in the morning. we left the factory in vehicles come out. though all that comes after forest johnston's flying visit to kia, where he pledged to provide more military aid to presidency. lensky but johnson ruled out the possibility of british troops officially fighting in ukraine against the russian army. russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman said the prime minister was
12:27 pm
aware of the situation concerning the culture of u. k. nationals, you know, from one to william morris johnson who recently visited kiev is certainly aware of the situation surrounding the u. k. nationals, he will respond soon, and les tress will tell you what the british were doing there. but was film was shoot up by and lodge. so lensky has a free hand to day to finally strangle political freedoms in ukraine. we're so lensky could not have an honest and democratic dialogue with victim at vit shook in a fat political competition. in fact, we see a typical dictates are in the center of europe, and unfortunately today, both forest johnson and mac cron and other european leaders turn a blind eye to this. they see it like this. if so, lensky does something bad to russia than this is our guy. but the such reasons they will tend to blind dye to political trials to the arrests of, from an opposition political leaders, such as victim advocate and to the activities of nationalists and radicals. a lot of whom are inside the army, the head of the european commission, a said the
12:28 pm
e u is considering a 6th round of russian sanctions, which will potentially target the energy sector, including the oil industry. thus, after vladimir putin earlier slum some nations for delaying their payments for russian energy versus whoop of blood in her failures in the payment of export supplies of russian energy resources. banks from unfriendly countries delay the transfer payments. i remind you the task has already been set to transfer payments for energy resources to the national currency, gradually moving away from the dollar and the euro. and generally, we intend to radically increase the share of payments in the national currency in the foreign trade system in the world. but around a month ago, the russian president ordered the states companies to switch the payments and roubles for russian energy resources. now the decision was met with a huge backlash from the west, which accused moscow of breaking contracts and circumventing sanctions up to know there's been new agreements among members,
12:29 pm
states and bombing russia. northern gauss, bodamer putin also stressed on an embargo and russian energy resources will primarily heads. european citizens zeppelin attempts by western countries to replace our energy resources with alternative supplies will inevitably affect the entire global economy. supplies from other countries, primarily from the united states, will cost consumers many times more would affect the standard of living of people and the competitiveness of the european economy. despite these obvious things for every one european countries are constantly talking about refusing russian supplies, which further destabilizes the market and inflates prices themselves, primarily for their citizens. meanwhile, the head of germany, federal network agency, which overseas, the country's energy needs recently claimed that a frush and gas supplies are cut by berlin. germany's reserves will only last until the autumn, former austrian foreign minister carton can i so told r t. it would be hard for neighboring germany to deal with the consequences of
12:30 pm
cutting energy imports from rush. the impact will be much larger than just the old metaphor, that people might freeze or not freeze. we should bear in mind that it's also all about the commodity, natural gas for electricity generation. german government is taking all sorts of administrative, legal steps in preparing a gas supply emergency situation. it's even talk about nationalized ation, conference cation or russian property. we can't imagine i would say the ultimate outcome. you can see how pressure is filled up against germany within the european union. it's not only from us, from your brain or by the public opinion. it's really from within the european union. there really is right now is.
