democracy. on gary and foreign minister islam was what he describes us on. just the find. i talked by the west over budapest position on motion, energy supplies, and indian prime minister in iran, remote if it's denmark. on day 2 of his working trip to europe comes against the backdrop of western pressure on new delhi, to joint sanctions against russia. a wherever you are catching the program from today. welcome to moscow and then use our on our team. my name's unit no need ukrainian forces have reportedly use the ceasefire. a martyr. you pulled a self style plant to move into a new firing positions. the russian military attacks on board free fortifications have not reportedly resumed with our strike sound artillery used in the offensive.
9:02 am
it comes as a cease fire was announced in the area for several days with more than a 100 civilians evacuated to safety during the time. meanwhile, moscow is continuing to target ukraine's military infrastructure in other regions. the in the latest strike, russian forces have a logistics center of military or a field near the southern city road. as the facility was being used to deliver a foreign weapons to ukraine was 1st head over the weekend. the strike destroyed on mums aerial vehicles. miss on the numbers are president bible is expected to pub pressure on congress to authorize additional $33000000000.00 in aid for ukraine. that comes in a visit by the president to a u. s. plus manufacturing javelin anti tank missiles widely used by q.
9:03 am
president is traveling to troy, alabama to visit a lockheed martin facilities that manufacturers weapon systems such as javelin anti tank missiles. we've spent over 5500 javelin anti armor system to ukraine to support the training in people's fight for freedom. in addition to touring the facility, he will deliver remarks about the security assistance we are providing, highlighting the urgency of the request to congress, to pass funding quickly to help you cry and continue to succeed against russian aggression on, while the promised 5000 javelin systems have been sent to korean by the u. s. americas ally. taiwan is being forced to look for arms alternatives as the war and ukraine is dilly weapon supplies to the island. and as the u. s. leader thanked arms manufacturers for helping ukraine's fights against russia. the biggest defense contractors in the u. s. have been popping champagne corks to celebrate the profits
9:04 am
. the conflict is bring where there's war, there's big business, looking to profit from the carnage americas weapons manufacturers know that better than any one else. take raytheon technologies, which saw dollar signs on the horizon even before russia's military operation and ukraine began. we're seeing, i would say, opportunities for international sales. the tension in eastern europe, the tensions in the south china sea. all of those things are putting pressure on some of the defense spending over there. so i fully expect we're going to see more benefit from it at the same time making money from people killing each other doesn't weigh on their conscience one bit. i think again recognizing we're there to defend democracy and the fact is, eventually we will see some benefit in the business over time. everything that's being shipped into ukraine today, of course, is coming out of stockpiles either at the department of defense or from our nato
9:05 am
allies. and that's all great news. eventually we'll have to replenish it and we will see a benefit to the business over the next coming years. not only is this endless flow of state of the art weaponry to crane, spurring the weapons industry forward. but the accompanying gap in washington supply is creating that much more of a demand spike. the united states military has probably sent about one 3rd of its javelin, anti tank missiles to ukraine, one 3rd of our supply given to them replenishing us stocks of those weapons would require 32 months. some politicians are even calling for president joe biden to invoke the defense production act that would allow washington to make companies prioritize government contracts to refill the countries javelin, and stinger stockpiles and seeing estate deals are what the weapons industry relies on. it would mean significant profits for these merchants of death. we have a significant usage rate for the stingers that we're moving over there. javelins
9:06 am
also, and we have to not only be able to help the ukrainians, we have to maintain our stock. the cupboard is empty or it will be very, very shortly unless the president invokes the defense production act to provide that demand signal on an expedited basis. no doubt arms corporations are thrilled about the potential for a new military spending. frenzy lobbyists are already working around the clock, pushing for more state contracts to defend the country, so called defense industrial base. after all, raytheon and lockheed martin stock prices skyrocketed the very same day that russia's operation began. on top of that, washington is looking to send ukraine, some obsolete personnel carriers from the vietnam war, which would make more room for weapons producers to fill the space left behind with new equipment. looks like weapons manufacturers can count on a lot more profits in the near future. while we can count on a lot more casualties. we have been flooding arms into ukraine. we
9:07 am
should be seeking peace, rather than seeking to prolong the, the conflict. there are few ways of becoming wealthier, faster and easier than to start a war and to bleed off profits from of, from war, from the arms industry. tremendous dr. by the, the war industrialists to produce arms and to, to, to create a level of war, hysteria that will produce of markets for their, for their arms. well, talking of big figures, the british prime minister was an answer for the 375000000 dollars worth of military support to key that was during an historic address to ukraine's parliament . boris johnson encouraged the country to keep up the fight, fighting quote, ukraine's finest hour. the remote speech was the 1st by
9:08 am
a foreign leader to the countries robert, since the conflict began. now at the same time, nato, how started it's 10 day trojan footprint. military drills in europe, posted by 15 nato's. they sound like countries close to russian. 30 control center battle vehicle warships and military aircraft along thousands of soldiers. right off to rushes waters. a former new zealand deputy foreign minister much robson questions how the western military block claims russia and china, the world's main aggressors. as nato continues to place spaces around the world, the history of the united states. you don't know why the do tell to violence the intervention of the united states for centuries, the people who as well the people who cuba, the people who nicaragua. and now nato has also got
9:09 am
a base in columbia and the dutch and the british, who still got colonies in those areas have extended night to nato's long, long ago, lit it shows. so yes, it's a terrible thing that they're trying to line up against russia. but on the other hand, the great majority of people in the world opposed to what the united states is doing . and i hope that you will, will. we're going to make sure that a movement begins in new zealand to stop us being dragged into this war cherry, which is later, we know it's reputation. we know it doesn't defend democracy. but we know also that the russian government saying that they want to cation of the ukraine is for all of us. because the growing threat of fascist nazis throughout the world is a real threat. and the what russia has done with the special operation, it's good. it's
9:10 am
a good description of what russia has had to do is on behalf of all of us. it's not just for russia is to wake people up to how aggressive nature lewis, how destructive it is to have to look at libya. its role in both throughout the world and dismemberment of a few slabs. so rather than burton and the russian government of done us all the favor by so saying to or showing nato, we're not going to be bullied in many people in the will. and the majority of countries respect that the fact that we're not going to be bullied by this aggressive destructive country. which leads nato. we know the, the game plan, as obviously getting mixed to russia. they know all the documents from cannon through to visit in sky to the rand corporation to the not the date of community unit k of 2021,
9:11 am
which shifted out to this member russia. this member held daily. but also, of course, in our part of the world, we know it's aimed at china as well. so yes, it's a terrible thing that they're trying to line up against russia. but on the other hand, the great majority of people in the world opposed to what the united states is doing with would find out. and i hope that you will, will limit. we're going to make sure that a movement begins in new zealand to stop us being dragged into this war, cherry, which is later. we know it's reputation. we know it doesn't defend democracy. russian president vladimir has a non thing you sense of economic measures in response to western sanctions. the decree prohibits among other things, a possible bomb on the exports of raw materials to western companies. and let's cross lie back to our to he or she does have to take us through that eager indeed
9:12 am
expand on what was said in response to those western sanctions. and indeed what the economic ramifications could be. well indeed, union, this is yet another step that the russian government is taking in response to the unprecedented pressure that it is facing from the us, from the you and their allies, and according to well, the decrees signed by vladimir putin, the russian government has 10 days to come up with a list of entities, including both individuals and businesses that will be blacklisted from making any deals with the russians, with the russian business with the russian economy. and in fact, not only the russian government and the russian businesses will be, will no longer be bound by any contractual obligations they might have with the people with the entities on the list. but in fact, they will be outright banned from making any deals, any transactions, any financial operations. essentially, this is the list of the most toxic and radioactive, you know, entities for the russian economy. so it is yet to be formed. again,
9:13 am
the russian government has 10 days, but the ramifications can be significant because the ban is included. for example, the export of goods. if it is in favor of these band companies of these sanctioned individuals, if they were to be the beneficiaries of such exports of such deals and so on and so forth. now again, this is significant and we are of course, yet to see who and what companies will be included in this 1st version of the list . and i see the 1st version because we've seen no indication that whatever the 1st 12 version, the 1st draft we might see coming from coming and published by the russian government. there's no indication that it will be the final one. in fact, quite likely, if russia was to face more pressure from the u. s. and the u. this list will be expanded even further. again, this is something of a mirror response, a tactic,
9:14 am
the russia strategy that russia has been following in the past few years. because the e u and the u. s. they already have very similar to the list of the same nature of russian business men of russian companies that are in fact toxic for the u. s. and the e u. economies. in fact, we have seen several russian managers, members of the board and ceos resigned from that position so that those companies are no longer affiliated with them. a very similar measure now to have very similar step taken by russia taken by the russian president. thanks very much for taking this through all of our cheese shit and hungry. foreign minister has claimed his country as being unfairly attacked over its stumps on russian energy supplies. we're looking at this issue solely from the perspective of hungarian national interests. we're not interested in what the still the west think
9:15 am
about it. the real security of supplies is an issue for us because it's currently physically impossible to run the hungarian economy without russian oil. the minister also pointed, i've been hungry, denser, and 65 percent of its oil from moscow. budapest confirmed earlier, it was back in the bar, go on russian and g and could veto you sanctions on the countries. oil industry hungry was also among the 1st european countries to i breed, to a law, the conversion of their gas payments to roubles. something else to bring you. all they said comes as a radical ukrainian website, known for naming and shaming those deems enemies of the state of hungary and prime minister victor or bon to its list. the accused him of being the only you leader to refuse to allow the passage of weapons for ukraine through the country's territory beside branded hungry leader. and i'm
9:16 am
t ukrainian propagandist accomplice of russian crimes. the secretary of ukraine's national security and defense council has also accused hungry of wanting to seize part of ukraine's tertiary and even being informed of the russian operation in advance. now they moved, provoked an angry response from the deputy chairman of russia, security council dmitri med viet but this rate soon enough, right in european capitals, ukrainian, nazis will personally deal with any inconvenient superiors and will separate the lambs from the goats. they will decide who to exclude from the happy ranks of ukraine lovers tomorrow. so the presidents and prime ministers of france, germany, italy, and others, but where you are now under their suspicion. george, emily senior research fellow at the global policy institute think type believes that you is seeking ways to punish hungry for victoria bounds. aim of maintaining
9:17 am
good relations with moscow. founder is victor or as distinguish them. so from the, from many countries in the western world, declaring that this fight between you and russia, hunger is fight. i mean, whole battle ready cause problems on the slave with european union. i mean, the european union is not bringing action against him to the views of any fond it has been seeking more ways to punish it's going to it's very important for hunger is national interest. that it may say good relation, russia, but it was the curity reason, but my bubble energy, i'm hungry, getting all of the energy from pretty much, you know, 100 percent of its energy comes from russia or maintain relation, rush, track, indian prime minister, no render moody is on a diplomatic tour of europe,
9:18 am
it says 1st visit to the west since the start of the conflict in ukraine and comes against the backdrop of diplomat. again, fighting and pressure and new delhi to join the sanctions regime against russian. more in this on cross live to our correspondent in the indian capital r t to say hi, there are 2. there's a lot of important being attached to prime minister moody's visit to europe. this time from both sides take us through it. well prime minister nor into more be to day actually is in denmark and met. and danish prime minister met at dixon to day and be had bilateral talks on several issues including trade on in nerd. she innovation and climate and renewable energy, as well as ukraine, in fact rad minister, nor in the more be gone for peace in ukraine, an end to war in ukraine,
9:19 am
in the heart of europe. you couldn't get some good at the sound of the war. we immediately called for a cease fire and reiterated that dialogue is the only way to find a solution that we know when is at the end of this wall. every one will suffer losses. that's why we want peace. and the price is skyrocketing, food shortages, the spreading is affecting every family in the world. well, well. hello. ok. hello. when the prime minister, not in the more be yesterday, met german chancellor or le sharla and she and named mahdi in the bilateral agreement, came to an understanding you hold to set up actually
9:20 am
a green hydrogen dos source. apart from dod, germany also had demonstrations for and against india over ukraine. in fact, you frame is an issue. that is a place is still a question and issue in this door. but at the same time, you will be, has refused to make any statement against more school, because more school is a, historically a strategic partner. and also india buys most of it's from russia. in the recent months, india has also been buying crude oil on most in the last few months. it has bought the same amount of voice that did brought to you one. and the reason for that is the attractive oil discount that russia has been offering. i'm pretty much bring this through, that's our t r t took who's saying in new delhi,
9:21 am
let's delve into some of those points with kanisha gore policy expert on india 1st on the wider at region kenesha good to have you on today to what i could the indian prime minister be pressured by european leaders to condemn rush over the conflict and ukraine. i don't think so in didn't. i mean, it's still really relating to condemning. but if you will, that russia has been in the us strong ally that india or not in the past. yes, it has been russia that has gone over to supported india. and when it comes to conflicts with china, russia has many us strongest partner in terms of being in prosperity and peace. so today, if you look at kind of a movie, you know, on to mr. under day is one of his through, especially if you seen are ready to go back to mission. when,
9:22 am
if you look over this boss, gosh, looking forward, last year, offer the back see why the word was refusing vaccine to india. so i don't think so . i will be led to criticizing it because there's a lot of observers trying to figure out, could mr. moody be influenced in any way to change his current neutral foreign policy on join anti russian sanctions? could that have been if, if something is dangle i like the card and stick approach? how do you see that unfolding? i have seen the, the that the, i see from united states he came to india to try to go back to china digital war india. us is not going to support them, they started putting pressure of are you mind giving loss not to be thought of india which are on the was one mr. spoke or
9:23 am
u. s. not 131 issues specifically with me. so to me, india is not dependent upon the weight and india it and not so side for the pressure ridge. the rest is working on it. if you look at it, you know, india has strategic, dia, quote, you know g for terry. com. and when it comes to the oil market, a stronger lines, good russia and you see that that long to get broken down. yeah, there are certainly think ties and up front. is there a possibility though there's, there's an aspect i want to touch on the european countries in the g 7 will attempt india to change its down to russia with perhaps membership of thought group. or is membership in that group already inevitable? parente a given the countries rapid development over the past number of years in yes, membership is not stuck on in the after sizes. russia,
9:24 am
india membership is that it goes up. it's trudy. i'm what i do get people are moving on to the table. apart from that g 7 group is also member breaks where it actually is a strategic partner. so i don't think so that's going to change in dance. and it's done is still going to be meeting your to, you know, all the time. i don't getting peace because india is one country we're just suffering the maximum because of this war. if you look at to b, b i as in india, those massive b. and that's what i can go to stockton. because 90 percent of that y comes from russia, if you get an oil prices that i don't, particularly in india are equal system is often the most. so in there wants peace between russia and ukraine and debate. i was what i missed as i'm getting full on the trip itself than what are, is may names across europe. will he achieve them?
9:25 am
so i think um, best thing, you know, i got 11 time to talk about peace and the 2nd time the ascending reference, how can you have peace negotiations? why you're sending weapons due to ukraine. right. so i think indian mr understands that far, and it didn't just do is that who ensure that they bring more partners in europe, who can so ultimately not to wage war, but getting obese negotiation with russia? that's the reason. so i don't think so. i'm just and what he is going to get influenced by any of those need is that that's the reason you've seen that that you need, but also visited india very well. you can also visit india, but india that has been many times to show you. maybe just to some op am kenny's. thank you very much for your thoughts. your take today. punish gore
9:26 am
indian policy expert. many thanks. ah, ah, indian president sergio mother rela, has taken a stand against counseling russian culture. he says, targeting the country's cultural legacy, could harm european heritage as a whole. oh, the little cindy. yes, yona. luckily done, indignation and condemnation, of course, cannot touch upon culture upon the great minds of the past and their masterpieces which have given so much to the entire civilization. this would be contr productive for our italy and for our urinal sit audio. also, opa lindy and president statement comes as much of the world has turned its back not only politically, but culturally. and you at documentary, by the way, by r t examines how russia's rich, cultural heritage has faced the acts worldwide. ah, for the 1st time in history, an entire country's culture has been cancelled with

a very modern weapon. cancel culture. nearly dazzling lucille mala sudle in one william crockett, cheerfully fitting the one who took the clue. the phrase now particularly refers to canceling russian culture. what russia's created over the past 1500 years is now questioned, harshly condemned, reviled, and rejected. she said, and i knew that it's about something at the will of brown. there's a lot closer on a whole pony she, anytime you said a little small the list joining total condemnation, gross daily, and now enclosed dostoevsky to kosky and chelsea coverage. laura occluded with the law. ah, and you can see that documentary and so later today here owner, it's also available now at

9:29 am
but wake up and think for yourself. given his new purchase. this is an ominous tweet by a de la musk and a poorly informed 1. 1 of our major political parties has become a white grievance party that is set to renew tonight, an authoritarian, pro proven demagogue who tried to stage a coup. it's not the democrats mom, followed up with me showing the united states drifting further leftward. this was also unappreciated by many moscow's big plans for twitter. he wants to make it a maximum fun platform lifting restrictions on free speech. he also wants to open up the black box and show the public, the algorithms was being promoted and what's being suppressed. all of that is a pretty big shake up in the social media world. some of the responses got interesting where foxes, real power came in is that they were actually able to warp newsrooms. and i think you must really saw twitter as the best vehicle to do that. even if ilan must, does nothing. the one thing we do know is that twitter as
9:30 am
a vehicle for actually being one of the vanguard of addressing threats is no longer in play with moscow planning to cut jobs and executive pay. as part of his takeover, it looks like the censorship czar of twitter who makes $17000000.00 per year could get canned, many recall how bad victoria good day looked on joe rogan's podcast defending what sounded a lot like a partisan political agenda. your platform restricts speech, our platform, promote speech in a specific direction in any direction. the guy who calls for death gets a suspension. the guy who insinuates that gets a permanent ban. but tell you're when you're misinterpreting what i'm saying. the tesla billionaire seems to be the latest contender throwing his hat into the ring against the american political establishment and its political correctness. we should expect many punches to land in the coming weeks. caleb martin r t new york or 3rd and former us senate a tara read believes it's hypocritical of us liberals to criticize most while
