a new draft agreement to ukraine and is now awaiting a response. however, pasco, of acid, that he has, has safe. i've been reluctant to work out the details of an arrangement with moscow . in the ambassador don bassetti of mario pole 5 ukrainian soldiers have reportedly surrendered on wednesday as comes as russian had forces step up their assault on the last stronghold of keith's troops in mario pole. the remaining defenders are still holding the sprawling territory of the ass off stall, industrial plans. their exact number is unknown, but they are reportedly in short supply of ammunition on food. brushing that forth is said to have been making very cautious, moves towards the enemy, positions, or local civilians have managed to take advantage of humanitarian corridors and flee their homes off the hiding and faith moved for weeks. some of them have said that experience would suit your home and we really need medicine and more humanitarian aid in order to deliver it to different parts of the city. for the elderly people there, my mom, ocean,
1:03 pm
one of the most important thing is that our children all study in russian. it was a nightmare. how did torch thus the russian speak in population? i feel so sorry for the children mutual enough. i'm listening but mind if i know that we were living in the basement for 2 months, we are very happy to see you guys. stay alive. but if everything was bombed and burned down, we lived in a basement, no water, new food, we just grabbed, we could do it in the year. which cool deal on your the would you like a pregnant girl was killed. she left 2 kids and this girl was wounded with been treating her since the 7th of april. and i think she never moved like this before. and now you are evacuating right history, my sister and 3 nephews. ah. as russian led forces evacuate, any remaining civilians from the area, the troops are now moving in for a final decisive basil against the ukrainians. in mario poll ortiz,
1:04 pm
morganze day of report was from the c. this is the last residential neighborhood or what's left of it that still controlled by ukrainian nationalists in mario bull. and they have done everything to hold onto with these machines out to change that with heavy armor attack by me with a movie. yeah. close to the as of still what industrial for norco affordable with just fine. those buildings
1:05 pm
with infantry can only do so much against fortified positions. heavy armor is called in for the heavy lifting and the troops, chechen volunteers in this case, know where the weak points. ah, right now, these are the fighters, are covering this tag crew. they're receiving, targeting direction from troops here on the ground once once they have those all fish that goes that do its job. once everything is agreed, the action begins. that is how in position has a target inside attack
1:06 pm
is not here at that unit withdrawn. a bmc heavy vehicle has south take its place. firing hood nationalists to keep the deep, the pressure day in day out for weeks on end. fighting for every building, every floor, every room off to the heavy vehicles finish up. the infantry moves in digital till a small task is to follow the soldiers and provide cover for them. here we are on the lookout for any enemy movement. every one knows exactly what they're doing. the as off nationalists in the industrial zone at the heart of the city, are in sorry, shape. they're short and food, water, ammunition, and morale. chechen fife is here fighting on russia side and who the nationalist promise to humiliate are pressing on. we literally go to their cobra, we remember all the videos that they made saying they were going to shave our
1:07 pm
beards off, because you can see who's being shaved. now their morale is low, many of them want to surrender, but some of their allies won't let them. russia has repeatedly offered them a seat far and the chance to surrender. the nationalists have refused. in some places. ukrainian troops were found shot in the back by their own as they attempted to surrender. it is clear that despite their situation, the hours of nationalists mentality has not changed and the most fanatical of them are still very much in charge. more i'd guess, give r t for mary you both the ukrainian military is being used as a proxy against russia by the us and its allies as, according to the pharmacy. i analysts, larry johnson, he says, washington is failing to see that keith is losing the wall. this conflict could have been avoided. and instead, you know,
1:08 pm
it is pains me to say my country has been in the lead of trying to destroy russia. this need for war on the part of the west is being fed and i think unfortunately down for us or they've been off what they've been to and dealing with russia. essentially i, i see it. the ukranian army is fighting a proxy war for nato, for the united states. we're finding out that everything that we thought the previous to do, they can't do it. russia has been pretty effective. the reality is the ukrainian military has really ceased to function as an effective harris force yet within the united states. there's this continued dorothy to propaganda towering major successes by the ukrainians. you can't see any of it on video because it doesn't exist for americans do not understand, is that the russians for fighting to defend the mother like this is. and in the,
1:09 pm
the ignorance is displayed in the part of the so many people in my country about russia and it's history of their, you know, they continue to refer to them as communist today. really last a serious ability to analyze what's going on. and just as a very simple example, the fact of russia now has effectively sees the entire southern post ukraine using ukraine. a major academic life life ukraine is cut all. this is like having an artery and your leg separate, who can survive long with their x. that means your korean economy. debt is not just suffering its debt because without him, fortune exports, its ability defeated people and they keep getting kind of viable economy is we're going to reduce the intelligence community here is just oblivious to this kind of get august. there is more focused on identifying the specific veins and leaks as
1:10 pm
opposed to looking at what's happening to the force. so at this pain increases, the americans are going to turn on the plus the politicians who help create this mass. and every, every time jewel bite and tries to blame it on, most american voters are buying it so it can be flight. mean, biden people, i mean, the democrats, the sanctions imposed on russia in theory were supposed to damage lecture so badly that the people who rise up and off it's having exactly the opposite effect. the damage is being done right now, economically, the united states. it's going to grow and increase, and this ultimately turn out to be devastating side here. ah, president pacing has congratulated the russian military on the successful test launch of a bronze new intercontinental ballistic missile his art. he's more if an ocean over the details. precious defense ministry, indeed a says that early on wednesday carried out a successful tasked launch of rushes, sour mod,
1:11 pm
super heavy intercontinental ballistic missile known to the west. as satan to all the tasks, the ministry says were a fulfilled completely and precisely. the giant mesa was warned from playsets cosmo drum in russia's north commenting on the launch rushes president widen, report, and said that it would make all those countries daring to threaten russia. think twice. let's take a listen. you're good boy. this is a big advance in the development of advanced weapon systems for the russian army. the new complex has supreme texaco and technical characteristics and is able to overcome any existing missile defense systems. it has no equivalence anywhere in the world, and there won't be any for a long time. this truly unique weapon will reinforce to convert potential of our armed forces reliably and show russia security from external threats and make those who in the heat of friends, aggressive rhetoric are trying to threaten our country. think twice that i see. i
1:12 pm
would like to express my gratitude to everyone who participated in the development and production of a new complex huggins unit. i would like to emphasize that when creating the saw mod only russian made components and parts were used. and this will simplify the serial production of the new cell complex. we 1st heard of this, sorry, my, to me. so back in 2018 when president clinton and bill 6 new strategic weapons. and back that it was announced that this harmony, 1st white was expected in 2022 with a weapon ready to enter service later in the same year. and from what we can hear. and now today from russia's defense ministry might happen a little bit ahead of the shadow. jailed wikileaks found a julian assange is one step away from extradition to the u. s. as after a london magistrate court ruled in favor of the leaf south of britain's home secretary to confirm the decision which would c a thongs handed over to the us where his warranted on espionage charges. we can look at the 2 and shift kristin
1:13 pm
hyphens and claims. the latest decision amounts to a death sentence for assange. few months ago, this port are actually writing a song would mean a risk to his life that it will be equal to a death sentence. now there is court has been ordered issue that sentence. that is what happened here today. no julians alive is in their hands or whatever and board is johnson. they need to do that. i mean you need to make sure they do the right thing. they have the power to start to end is to say, a man's life and stop this attack on the food or the press to to the sun space is up to 175 years in us prison. if found guilty, the activist has denied the allegations against him. wednesdays rule incomes despite an earlier decision from the same court saying
1:14 pm
a songs could be treated harshly in american custody. we got reaction from international journalists, which had met her still believes the latest court decision was made without proper consideration. what we had this morning was really a rubber stamping. i was in the court of virtually this time and i still the judge . he actually had to legally speak directly to us on break down what's happening right now. and he told them that, you know, this is not really up to me. i'm duty bound to send this to send your case to pretty but tell the home secretary for her to sign off on the extra mission and you have a right to appeal. but you can only appeal after she has made her decision. so that means in about 4 weeks, cuz a sondors lawyers they have until may 18th to make submissions to pretty protell, to make their taste for it to not sign off on the extradition cuz the ultimate decision does line her hands on. and after that, assange could appeal. busy or if she does order the extradition honestly, given a pretty good tells policies, you know, i don't, i don't really hold out much hope for science because it's just last year where she
1:15 pm
was trying her office was trying to in recommendations that journalists in the you k be imprisoned for up to 14 years for you know, publishing government secrets, things that embarrass the government. so i don't really think she's much of a, of a friend of freedom of the press. again, i do hope she does the right thing because she, she has the power in her hands right now as those boards. johnson to take a stands for press freedoms to show that the u. k is not working at the best of the united states and to stop a, you know, a journalist being shipped off to face to centuries and jail. this is very obviously a political, political trial. when you have a journalist being, you know, being charged with 17 counts as a spy, that's political by nature. and so when you have a political case like this, you can just when it, in the courts, you really have to win it through public opinion. it's a battle that has to be for us with lots of stamina, long term, and it's very good to see these assange activists coming out a quite often that they're very determined, they're very driven. it's actually, thanks to them that i and other journalists were able to get in the courts during
1:16 pm
a song just extradition hearing because they would queue up since 5 in the morning . and thanks to them, we were able to report on this. so i think it's crucial, i think there has to be a pressure on the boards, johnson government to, to block this extradition. they can do this, they, they know under the extradition treaty between the use and you came that was signed in 2003 under article 4. you can block in extradition if it's for a political offense. and again, charging a journalist as a spy is the classic textbook, political offense, and so forth. so i'm some pretty well they really do the power to block this. if it's on just health is not a concern to them. if press freedoms are not a concern to them, they still have the chance to block it for, for its political nature. and so i think it's, it's, it's paramount that people put public pressure on the government speed on my 6th day since they chalet. an american journalist who's been covering the conflict from inside to ukraine has gone missing and welcomes. although there's colleagues try to track down the reporter, a prominence ukrainian near nancy has posted
1:17 pm
a series of unverified claims, implying that journalist might have been a deck and killed in sala. laira is 54 years old and has been living in ukraine for the past few years. he was in kia when the conflict threw up in february and then travelled to haul, called to cover the fighting. he has repeatedly criticize the ukrainian government and armed forces for the actions at the end of march tweeted what he called the truth about the landscape regime. i think he might disappear us that other critics of t as some of whom were later found dead. he's one of the gonzales there is latest interviews before he went missing. there is constant. shelly, b, dumbass reach the break away public public so you can send it us. and over the years, well about 60000 people were killed needlessly. and it was really because of the aggression of the ukraine regime, which never wanted to negotiate with people on the break. like what we can offer
1:18 pm
again eva. karen bottle at the very journalistic gonzalo liver was speaking to in that interview. you just heard that avery is also an independent writer on human rights activist. thanks for joining us, eva. now 1st, can you tell us, when was the last time you heard from gonzalo lira and what else did he tell you before he disappeared? yes, we communicated on the morning of march 15th around 9 30 am at the time he messaged me explaining why he had been stressed out the day before saying is extremely tired, hadn't been sleeping and that he but he said the crazies are on the street, you can tell by looking at them you don't want to go near them. he was also saying that people are staying in doors because they're afraid to go outside and if they do go outside, they're extremely paranoid about everyone around them. so he was definitely quite worried about his own safety. i was sort of risks to g. did he say he was prepared
1:19 pm
to experience over his critical coverage of the conflict from inside ukraine? i mean, gonzalgo is doing a lot of interviews, particularly on the duran channel, but also with other journalists. and he made it clear that he was aware of the dangers that being in car cove posed to him in not the cities overrun with nazis, but he felt it was important to be there to witness how things played out. i'm in a tweet from last month. your colleagues said he might be the next on the list. do you think his disappearance could be linked to what he was saying in his interviews? hey, yes, definitely. it could be linked to that, but also it's very worth mentioning there was a recent smear piece by the daily beast. um and i don't know that that was the only one. certainly there had also been ukrainian friendly turn lights that had been smearing gonzalo. and basically depicting him as any, any number of things, including a russian spy, a russian agent, et cetera,
1:20 pm
thereby alerting his presence to these not teeth that are very present and active in card cough. so basically in one of his videos on his youtube channel, he said, he said to the daily beast would have blood on their hands if he were to disappear . oh, i speaking to you in particular, gonzalo said, among other things, the ukrainian government is the one to blame for civilian deaths in don't bass, not a mainstream view in the west, is it? how did the audience react to his opinions? i mean, i'm certain he had his i, i'm certain he, at his people who were critical of what he had to say people that just don't want to hear anything other than the mainstream narrative. but bear in mind, he had a massive following on social media, particularly honest telegram channel, which has nearly 90000 subscribers. and every time he appeared on the duran and other programs, there is a wide audience ready to hear his views. because again,
1:21 pm
one other notable thing is he being and car cove was one of the sole voices. if not this whole voice is in english language. speaking critically about what was happening under that zelinski regime and under the nazi rule. and this is what we aren't getting from mainstream media and will never gap just like to live in a gonzalgo and holds a chilly ann and an american passport. as so far we've heard nothing about his disappearance from us and facials. are you surprised? they're not more worried about an american citizen going missing and ukraine? not at all. if you remember in i think it was in 2016, an american citizen, serina shim, a was reporting from turkey on the fact that turkey was funneling terrorist into syria and ah, she was on press tv, her employer. and i, she said she feared for her life she, she said something about being threatened by turkish intelligence. and i believe it was 2 days after that. she died in
1:22 pm
a mysterious and very dubious car crash. her. her mother has pushed for the u. s. to investigate and they have not, and a to, to this day i, i believe they have not investigated the death of syria him in turkey. so i don't expect them to, to push for gonzales release be prior. precisely because what he was reporting does not fit their narrative. and their narrative, of course, is ukraine. is he a democratic and free country that can do no wrong? and of course, you know, the entire american press and, and politicians are white washing the crimes of the nazis in ukraine. and this isn't the only case of a key of chrissy going missing. and some old says analysts sung politicians view to viewed as opposition by the ukranian government have also disappeared with some of them lay to fans dead. why is this happening? and is anyone in the west paying attention? do you think you would mind? i'm actually a yawn. april 5th,
1:23 pm
gonzalo tweeted about some one named oleg novick cove and opposition activists in kirk of in a city gone. solo is living and being. i'm sorry, i'm not sure you tweeted that day, but he tweeted that that this man was kidnapped on april 5th. ah, by the secret to curt, sorry, security service of ukraine. and i noted that the man is disabled and has 3 children. so he's making the point that even it not just journalists, but even opposition. active activist and opposition, members within ukraine proper are being disappeared either by a dis, security forces, or by the nazis. and why is this happening? it? well, it's because the zalinski government does not tolerate descent, does not tolerate criticism. remember that in 2018 ukrainian journalist, an editor of r i in of osd curl, washkinski was abducted by ukrainian authorities, had held in detention without trial. and for over a year. and his crime, quote unquote, crime was publishing 14 or 15 opinion articles,
1:24 pm
none of which he had authored on the situation in kiya 4 years prior. so this is a state that can do virtually anything, not only to journalists, but to citizens as well, and get away scott free. a lot of uses online and now trying to find and contact gonzalieras, family and relatives, and some of whom reportedly live in ukraine. do you think they can still feel safe inside the country? no, i don't think so. i mean, i don't think any normal ukrainian citizen can feel safe inside the country, but particularly not his family because, well, his name is now well known and the secret services will be looking for them. and so, but i, i do want to emphasize norden, era ukrainian citizens can't feel safe within their country because of the widespread, a rule of these nazi groups in ukraine as karen bartlett's journalist and
1:25 pm
independent reisa and human rights activists. thank you for your time. ah chillies ministry of foreign affairs has confirmed to otto that they've been informed about the loss of contact with the journalists. we've also requested comment from the u. s. department of state since consolidated holds a dual citizenship so far. the americans have provided no response at, but will keep you posted now, china and pakistan have announced they're expanding their partnership as part of a new economic corridor. and the pakistani nuclear power unit powered by a chinese developed react to has also started working this week. the new round of cooperation comes as pakistan's, newly elected prime minister forms the coalition government earlier ship of sharif hosted chinese invoice pakistan for talks and islamic bud. well, let's not discuss this with the child professor at the power school of technology and business. thank you for joining us on the program professor,
1:26 pm
what's your take on this new way cooperation between beijing guns, islamic god do prime minister she reeves capital, nearly relationship in china. it is because i see each other as sign brothers. we have very good people to people relationship and economically this china package can on the corridor of power because nobody is up a corporation industry, life vision i could call and tourism it is muted that it will create to pump 1000000 jobs for most of the last 30, and you would talk with point 5 percentage points into the value of this project were about 60000000000. if you are still more than all the forms are in because con it's 970 okay,
1:27 pm
we're experiencing some technical difficulties that we can't quite hear. what you say, mr. chow. let's persevere see if it's improved a little bit. my next question is, i'd like your thoughts on china. what china with expecting to gain from teaming up with pakistan is important in china and of counter say india because of to face a 2 front war or concert. it also helps we was trying to, since in afghanistan, chinese actively rebuilding italy by took over last year. it also helps strengthen ties with the middle east, especially iran, saudi arabia, and u e, because pockets also it's an energy lifeline to china in terms of importing, we don't use an oil and gas because energy can be imported from the top porch of pakistan directly to china,
1:28 pm
by passing the us control medical straight to bio singapore, cutting cost, sitting time and thousands of miles in to see benjamin child, professor at the paris school of technology and business. thank you for your time and thank you for joining us here. we're naughty international. we'll be back in to say 30 minutes with the latest the long when i would show the wrong one, i'll just don't need you to fill out the scene because the after an engagement equals the trail, when so many find themselves will depart. we choose to look for common
1:29 pm
ground we're told one of the hallmarks of western liberalism is the idea and practice of dollars. more specifically, it is said we should not judge an individual or group based on their race color or creed. but that apparently doesn't apply when it comes to russians. crusoe phobia is the new bigotry with both both the models you need to do both with a, with
