1:06 am
that has come forward and supported india. so today, if you look at kindness, i'm not in the movie on the when mr. john wooten is one of the school specialty. and you seemed are ready to go back to mission. but if you look over the spot, gosh, looking forward, you know, how strategic or g for technical are and when it comes to the oil market, a stronger lines to russia, nbc, that one is not going to get broken down. a bunch of that g 7 is also member breaks where it actually is a strategic partner, you know, all the time. i don't getting peace because india is one country which is suffering the maximum because of this war. if you look at to b, b a, d, i have those massive b, and that's of like, you know, got it because 90 percent of that y comes from russia. if you look at why i don't
1:07 am
particularly in india, our ecosystem is often the most. so in there wants peace between russia and ukraine and debate. i missed those. i'm getting for best to sling. i don't know. i don't know. i mean one time they're talking about peace and the 2nd time we are sending weapons. how can you have peace negotiations? why you're sending weapons to ukraine. right. so i think indian by mr. understand that far and it didn't by mr. is that who ensure that they are, they bring more partners in europe, who can support you? great. not to wage war, but get into these negotiation with the you a secretary of state antony lincoln has praised america as a haven for freedom of speech. but that's despite much criticism. states find pressure applied in the media views, opposing official, and mainstream narratives. has the more in the
1:08 am
right to free, lose brushing every brush all and also the critics have slammed the idea of free press. in the united states, the world press freedom index which assesses the state of journalism in 180 countries, currently ranks america in 42nd place globally. the european federation of journalists cause out the case of wiki leaks found a julian assange. he's wanted in the united states for publishing a classified falls and faces up to 175 years in jail. the us justice department continues pursuit of the extradition of wiggly found a jeweler and a sons from the u. k to the u. s. sort of dangerous legal precedent. they moved to prosecute him under the u. s. espionage undermined press freedom globally. the extra territorial application of the u. s. espionage act could also threaten any journalist anywhere for publishing classified us information in his tirade. the
1:09 am
arguing that the united states is a champion of freedom, criticized in countries that are critical of united states or opponents of the united states and the political stage and the name of opposing in the name of freedom and promoted freedom. anthony blank and relied heavily on the world press freedom index, published by reporters without borders and that world press read an index that it was published actually did highlight a big polarization in media and talk about how media is fueling divisions that are taking place. now it's also important to know that an opposition network, an outlet is critical of the russian govern, was invited to that press conference. however, r t and other networks that are more sympathetic, they were not allowed to participate yet. anthony blanket continues to maintain that it's the united states as the champion of freedom of the press. now, it's also important to note that he seems to think in addition to believing that somehow the states is promoting free braswell. it tries to shut down criticism of
1:10 am
its foreign policy. he also seems to believe that us officials know better. what's best for russia better than russians do the policies of the united states over the past few months. they've been doing everything they can to shut down and silence media that fruits forward. any perspective critical of the nato perspective, when it comes to the situation in ukraine, they are working to try and shut down tv networks and shut down dissident viewpoints. they're encouraging censorship on social media outlets. so, mean they were ever word laced with utter hypocrisy. there was those words we just heard from anthony blank and claiming that the united states is promoting free press and freedom of speech, which is the opposite of what u. s. foreign policy has been about in the last few months. journalist daniel lazar believes that the u. s. government has politicized the price and uses it for its own interest. us has a double standard that's just glaring. the u. s. a. shut down
1:11 am
r t america. it essentially has threatened with fines, anybody who writes for other russian websites, it has a very important journalist name julian assad, languishing in a, in a british prison awaiting extradition to the u. s. presses politicized. the press has been as being used by the american government to advantage the own interest. it's just completely appalling, completely corrupt and, and completely anti intellectual as well. americans need both sides of the argument . they need the russian point of view. they need the american point of view and they need critical opinion in between, in order to judge what's going on in the world, and especially in the ukraine and freedom of the press is not covering up the political nature of the ass off battalion in mary a pool because we know they're neo nazis, no matter how much antony blinkin tries to to deny it.
1:12 am
the meanwhile, the biden administration has announced the formation of a ministry of truth to fight the sprint of so called disinformation on the internet . the critics claim, it's a way to control the narrative. and an effective means to silence to think. you can tell more into that story at archie dot com. the fighting has intensified at the besieged. adolfo still works in the city of marie will pull . explosions were heard throughout the day on tuesday. the when much an official says around a $150.00 civilians are still sheltering in the factories basements. over the weekend to cease fire was announced in the area for several days, allowing more than $100.00 civilians to be evacuated safety. during that time,
1:13 am
the bus broke the evacuation of civilians from the south still factory. mario hall also involved the u. n. and the red cross doing an online press conference, the red cross representative to ukraine confirmed to r t. the organization was aware of both russia and ukraine, previous attempts to open the mediterranean color doors and the obstacles faced in competing variations. i knew that there were many attempts on both sides to open corridors, and we were always ready to to proceed. and to do patsy basie in those corridors. we manage to go one almost mother. i think it was a month ago. we need constant aid to ensure that everybody on the ground was aware of an agreement that the, that was, that was taken at the capital level. in other words, it's transforming it, secrete guarantees for us,
1:14 am
for the civilians into practical working modalities. since the end of april, back and forth to say they are almost in full control of the city of will based in the guns for public, the areas witness fighting since the very start of russians offensive and civil hotspots still remain ortiz maria phenomena center support from the field as to weeks. so fears fighting the town of rubies. now he is now completely under the control of russian forces, together with units from the people's republic of la guns and supported by chechen fighters. they are now focused on the local zed. yeah. gunpowder factory located in the industrial zone on the outskirts of the city. it is heavily fortified, ukraine's military together with a nationalist battalions and foreign mercenaries occupying it. they could tough opposition, shows them at the moment. the task is to capture and completely liberate the zari
1:15 am
of plans from the enemy. then we will wait for further instructions to network. the goal is difficult, but not impossible. the fighter se with optimism, we go with them on their nightly patrol. the wind to aim of the operation is to secure a further progress towards elicit chance and 7 than he asked the last 2 strongholds of the ukrainian forces and the republic. the army continues their relentless advance had night. fighter is move without flies, and we use infrared camrys so that we are not located and targeted by ukrainian drones, silent fast, and deadly weapons. russian force is also used drones, who vertical with the help of a quad copter, we can figure out the enemy's positions and carry out surgical strikes. using the quad comforter offensively helps to find out the enemy's positions. it's a big help over the last hours. the joint forces have managed to take control of the 1st line of defense around visit our planned old counter attacks where repelled
1:16 am
venom info. at the moment we're about 100 people have been eliminated in about 10 units of heavy equipment have been destroyed. there is resistance, we have a task and we are carrying it out all. there are quite a lot of foreign made weapons and we have clashes with these on a daily basis. we are confiscating them afterwards will follow cut and supplies to ukrainian forces on the dunbar. front is now at priority control over the entire industrial zone, will not only pave the way towards lisa chance and say that or the next, but also help gain control over the entire territory of the republic. brief notion of how t from ruby eschnann inpatient up gas prices are up. the cost of living is that, in fact, the only thing that isn't going up in the u. s. is joe biden's approval rating down another 9 percent in recent polls. it's even a 20 host calling for his impeachment, claiming the destiny of the nation is at stake,
1:17 am
but is by the really the one calling the shots on america the future. well ortiz rachel blevins, takes a closer look. joe biden approval ratings remain near all time low with the majority of americans. again, expressing concerns over the weekends administration has handled everything from storing inflation to an increase in crime across the country. in fact, even speakers of the white house correspondents dinner had to note that the approval of the american people may be the only thing that isn't increasing for the buying and ministration ever since you've come into office. things are really looking up, you know, gases up rent is up, food is up, everything. know, it really has been a tough 1st year for you, mr. president. and that's not even mentioning the increasing tension between the us and russia, as biting calls on congress to approve an additional $33000000000.00 and funding for ukraine. while the president and als is policy is that could impact the world
1:18 am
for decades to come. he continues to struggle giving basic speeches as another recent fall shows. the majority of americans are concerned about his age and the doubt whether he is mentally fit for office. we're gonna accommodate the re to caesar yards, luxury homes and other got engaged of prudence club tucker. yeah. could talk receipt the club. the guys who are the club. ta chrissy. so if biden isn't the one making the decisions for his own administration then who is well, it certainly does not appear to be vice president cromwell harris, who has managed, haven't even lower approval rating than by himself. she has stayed out of the spotlight so much that when the white house and now she had tested positive for koby 19 last week they said the vice president had not been anywhere near bite it. today, vice president harris tested positive for cove at 19 on rapid and p. c. r test. she
1:19 am
has exhibited no symptoms, will isolate and continue to work from the vice president's residence. she has not been a close contact to the president, our 1st lady due to their respective recent track schedule. what about house speaker nancy pelosi? she was behind harris in the line of presidential succession, but she was the one to pay a visit to kiev last week. and becoming the highest ranking u. s. official from this administration to meet with president can ukraine during the talk? hello c. thanks phil and ski for his work and promised that his country would have unwavering support from the us with the weekend in ukraine have just days after a similar visit from secretary of state antony blinking, and defense secretary lloyd austin, making biden and harris. the only top us officials who haven't made the trip to yet,
1:20 am
however, the rhetoric from the administration as a whole appears to be on the same page or to policy is riley allies and partners around the world. to join us in supporting ukraine militarily. economically and with humanitarian assistance to impose massive costs on the kremlin and when it comes to influence just how much of it is coming from retired government officials . as former congressman tools, he gathered noted the vine administration announced plans for the department of homeland security to create its own dis, information board. just days after former president obama said the government needs to get war involved, encountering dis, information online, talking to people at these companies. i believe there are some fear in trying to limit content that a gauges in hate, speech encourages violence or poses a threat to public safety. so if it isn't the president or even the vice president who is calling the shots, the question then becomes, who is and what does that entail for about the us and it standing on the wrong
1:21 am
stage bite in. never really got the honeymoon that many presidents get in their 1st 100 days. i think it's because of bad policy, right? from the door trying to do a lot of the things trump did, which were actually working, you know, is the failures are shockingly obvious. you know, americans are having a hard time putting food on their table. americans are being faced with a difficult decision of whether or not to pay a utility bill or buy food. this is the reality, unfortunately, for americans right now and for joe biden, as an elitist government official that's spent the last 50 plus years in washington d. c. that's the last thing that he should be doing right now is laughing at the situation that he's putting his constituents through, you know, because he works for americans. whether they're republicans, democrats, independence, libertarians, or socialists. they are all americans the cia ones, russians to contact them to the doc. net network,
1:22 am
which is often used for illegal and criminal activities. this my agency went as far as publishing and instruction in washington on social media channels on how to reach them. there are concerned russians who are desperately trying to reach cia. it's not safe to directly engage americans physically or virtually in russia for those people that want to engage with the securely. this is the way to do it. first, i think that they expect to perhaps encourage someone in the russian government with access to sensitive information or classified information perhaps in the. busy russian intelligence services, or the russian ministry of defense, or ministry of foreign affairs, to maybe reach out to them with sensitive information. this is a way for them to develop a spy to develop a source that can report back to them. but then on the other hand, i think that they also expect to worry the russian government
1:23 am
a little bit. maybe you throw this out there. you throw this information out there and you hope that the russians then clamped down on their own people that they become suspicious of their employees and it makes working on a day to day basis. a little more difficult to see. i created a daphne fight in 2019 that has the same features as its regular homepage. however, it's only accessible through the top internet browser, which has encryption features not available on most regular browsers. again, janice from pharmacy. i analyst, john curio cool. who thinks the move, the c a is yet another way for us to interfere in the russia ukraine conflict. i think what this was meant to do was to disrupt the russian government to make the russians think that they have spies among them. that there are spies in the russian
1:24 am
government working for american intelligence. even if there aren't any. this at least allows the cia to disrupt, to upset the russians to, to make their job a little bit harder. i think the american government has made it clear in a 100 different ways that they, that they want to interfere in the russian ukrainian conflict. it's not just trying to recruit spies to steal secrets. it's providing weaponry. it's providing ammunition, it's providing international political support. it's kind of cutting off of russian access to international banking. it's cutting off a russian energy supplies. so there are 100 different ways in which the united states is, is working against russia. hundreds of protest as poured on to the streets of bank gary on tuesday, angered at the government's plans to send military helped ukraine and demanding that the country stays neutral in the conflict. taunting we want peace and
1:25 am
neutrality, people gathered in front of the capitals, parliament, and sophia, the demonstrations began off to the government announced will be holding a vote later to day on sending military supplies to ukraine. those against the move are calling for emma latoya. mont dispatching either troops or weapons and on setting up military bases in the country. no one moment, one of the government's favorite phrases as they cannot stay inactive against the injustice. but nowadays, they are ready to introduce the bulgarian people to a war in the off season, when we want to ban approved the bulgarian territory be used for hitting either of both countries of the war. the neutrality in this madness is the most important thing. another european country is showing signs of division of the military for kiss. german intellectuals and artists have written an open letter to chancellor schultz making an urgent appeal not to escalate a 3rd world war by supplying heavy weapons to ukraine. charlotte to ben ski has the
1:26 am
details. it's a decision that divide in germany a country that for so long held firm on a policy of not supplying lethal weapons to a crisis. so it made a major, you turn at the end of april, after mounting pressure. but that dramatic shift in policy has now come under a barrage of criticism around 30 intellectuals and artists have led the appeal to the chancellor to stop the weapons supply and to prevent a 3rd world war. we are convinced that 2 such divided lies have now been reached. first, the categorical prohibition known, accepted and manifest risk of this war, escalades and into a nuclear conflict. the delivery of large quantities of heavy weapons, however, could make germany itself a party to the war. and the russian counter attack could then trigger the case for assistance under the native treaty and withered the immediate danger of
1:27 am
a world war. the 2nd line of demarcation is the level of destruction and human suffering and moral ukrainian civilians. even legitimate resistance to an aggressor is at some point in an intolerable disproportion. the letter also urges olaf sholpes to do all he can to ensure that a c spy is reached with germany making a decisive contribution to a solution that they say will stand up to the judgment of history. yet this stands seems to have landed the magazine in hot water, ukraine's ambassador to germany went on the attack targeting the editor. hi alice schwartz or your call for ukraine surrender means that your celebrated semitism is just a front, a fake. to accept the mass rape of ukrainian women by russian soldiers as pure cynicism. i don't want any one in the right mind buying your shoddy emma. all the
1:28 am
politicians has, hey, town to one green party politician. wondering if the letters support is would have advised fight is in the war so ghetto to give up in order to prevent unnecessary victims. while the deputy chairman of the free democrats in the buddhist dogs suggested that their position was one of madness, the letter states. we hope that a compromise can be reached as soon as possible that both sides can accept. if that were the german attitude, then violent border shifts in war crimes would be the new european normality. this position is insane. however, not all or against this call for a pacifist blowing from germany. important call for artists and intellectuals. the praise for shoals is unfortunately outdated due to his buckling under pressure from union free democratic party and grew and to deliver tanks to ukraine. but the demands to prevent world war 3 are all the more urgent voices against the move to
1:29 am
supply. heavy weapons to ukraine are getting louder. already on the petition side, changed all to hundreds of thousands have selling to signals they are against such deliveries. well, public sentiment in germany is split polls showing that an equal number off for and against that decision by berlin. their support for sending such weapons is said to be on the decline, the magazine emma, where they select that was published, also hate out to the media coverage of the war mismatch between public sentiment, 45 percent against the delivery of heavy weapons and 45 percent in favor and media coverage, new sometimes surprising voices are now mixed into this. he the tell rather one sided report for a weapon delivery and against any reflection or criticism of it. some have argued germany was bullied into the decision to vote,
1:30 am
to send heavy weaponry to ukraine. though it's clear there are many in the country who still don't support that decision. any dissenting voice still seemed to be now the target of a campaign of bribe eating shola gibbon ski. ot see harris. well, that brings us to the end of the bulletin for the saba. we'll be back with more news and headlines in about 30 minutes. thanks for joining us. ah with i
