steel plants where bottles between russian done yes republic, joint forces and local, ultra, and nationalist battalions continued to ring with around the clock across the world, this is our take, great to have your company today. my name's unit of the week began in moscow with a collective security treaty organization, or c s t o summit. some leadership of the member countries once again stated who they believe is responsible for prolonging the conflict in ukraine to show you. the consequence of the expansion of the north atlantic alliance is a problem that has created completely artificial work or since it is done in the foreign policy interests of the united states. and in general, nato is used as an instrument to the foreign policy of only one country. icon is
3:02 pm
produced on so far from the west, including washington, we are witnessing only a desire to prolong the conflict as much as possible. that is the reason why ukraine is being comfortable with weapons, the most dangerous tendency in ukraine of the attempt to dismember it. there are thousands of units that have already been created in order to end to ukraine under the guise of peacekeepers to protect it. as international pressure keeps mounting on russia as rushes, northwestern neighbors such as sweden and finland, what the world know that they have made up their mind. on joining nato, it is crucial and very important for moscow to show that there is a pro active security alliance. in existence that could act as a counter balancing force to the north atlantic treaty organization. and so the washing leader is hosting this big summit and the washing capital. exactly 30 years
3:03 pm
after the alliance was born. the leaders from 5 post soviet republics are in moscow representing pretty much russia's best friends if we take the post soviet republics. the alliance, both a joint action force, which we have already seen in action and january this here. when the catholic spirit was engulfed in violence street on arrest and international peacekeeping mission representing all members was sent and the violence was quickly dealt with. this was something that the leaders remember today and praise. but it seems that for the leaders, that's not really enough. what they want to see is the mind filled with extra energy. plus we heard the russian president, alexander lucas shank off in particular call for more unity by the member saying that they should act as a united front. when, for example,
3:04 pm
there are vote at international organization such as the un, mostly with the globe, with the silent consent of our partner's bell, aris, in russia, and country to all the norms of international law, the whim of the west, of being defamed and excluded from international organizations, yes, there is tough and unscrupulous pressure against us. the members of the c s t o. but it is for these sort of situations that collective mutual support exists. we heard criticism of nato actions and policies pretty much from every speaker here at the kremlin. but the strongest, of course, came from a lot of our potent before updating his counterparts from the course of the russian military operations in ukraine. mister blamed the west pretty much for associating themselves with nationalists in ukraine in a neighboring country in ukraine, near naziism has long been remedy which they tend to blind. this means that some of
3:05 pm
our partners from the collective west actually encouraged their activities. and all this is accompanied by a surge of outrageous we're supposed be. now going back to the alliance, we have heard today that it is open for expansion. it's ready for expansion. it has already carried out one successful military operation in catholic stand. so the message to the rest of the world is that it's not only up to nato to pull the strings and international politics and expand both finland and sweden have confirmed they've applied for an h. so membership, but there's opposition to the move from within the alliance after the turkish president stated, he is not a positive opinion about the bids, the chairman of the european parliament's largest party, whoever sees those who oppose the blocks expansion could face the ice. elation if the 2 countries want finland and sweden are part of it,
3:06 pm
no doubt. anyone who questions nato's unity will be isolated within the community. and as mentioned while hell think install comb, want to join nato anchor could prove a stumbling block for their plans. the crux of the issue lies in the 2 european countries ties with the kurdistan workers, party and other organizations considered of terrorist by tricky and gra, has reportedly sent extradition request for a 33 individuals with a legit ties to those organizations, but all were rejected. regis tyver to one choose finland and sweden of harbouring quote, terrorist organizations. this run these fish this in on the unit. we are following developments concerning sweden and finland. but we are not of a favorable opinion scandinavian countries. unfortunately, they have found nests in sweden and finland. in fact, i can see that at this point, it is not possible for us to look upon it positively expansion on the presence of
3:07 pm
military infrastructure on russian borders. how's brigades? despite a legend, assurances from the alliance in the 1990 s that it would not enlarge eastward. the block has been in the events of its joining the alliance stocum claims. it won't allow the deployment of military base as a nuclear weapons on its territory. political analyst richard met hurst point, saw at the question of expanse citizens themselves. they say the nato is more a, you know, aligned than ever. busy connie's, a rice and you know, was on tv just a few weeks ago saying that ironically, vladimir putin has brought nature members together closer than ever. i don't know if this is true and the germans at least ostensibly in the beginning and took place in ukraine. they were going through diplomacy, whereas the others were going for antagonism. right now, i think if power washington wields over the european union and, and the countries there, they're really just acting as vassal states unsinkable. as for the u. s. military,
3:08 pm
they're trying to make it look like it's a bit democratic because we're going to run it through the parliament. but you know, at the end of the day, even if they say the population in sweden, in the population in finland, you know, part of the support is that people in sweden and finland want to jo nato. why did they just hold referendum there? you know, what, what are they afraid of? there are a lot of people who are not in favor of escalation. i think they really understood what that means. that they, they would be against it. and we shouldn't forget, nato was created of counter the soviet union. soviet union doesn't exist anymore. so why has it doubled its membership in the last 3 decades? can other headline story today? hungarian prime minister of victor, or bon, has accused the you of abusing its power on forcing hungry into measures the country poses. he made the dumbing remarks in the speech while accepting his re election as prime minister goodson. m. keep, we shall, your thoughts show you not. brussels is trying to reduce the powers of hungary and member states obama still for brussels. is abusing its power and wants to force us
3:09 pm
into what is alien to us. so keep, however, we still do not let migrants in, we do not allow gender ideologies and we do not accept economic measures that would destroy hungarian families. so you victor or by not holding back on his words, come as the e u. pressures hungry to drop its opposition to a proposed embargo on russian oil. as the block diplomats met to discuss the potential new sanctions package, lithuania, as foreign minister accused budapest of holding you hostage as it continues to resist the move. this is how we will be, remember, either the can you union who managed to go forward and to send a very clear message to russia who had struck. and now unfortunately, we are, the whole unit is being hold hostage by one member states who cannot find that could help help us find that that was to expand on the e. u has been unable to agree in a 6 package of sanctions against russia,
3:10 pm
which includes asset freezes and travel bombs along with an right bomb on oil from the country. greason cypress have already oppose the drop plan to bonnie, you ships from the block by the way, need to face more difficulties because they are land lock because they don't have any possibility. receiving directory tankers, they only have 4 pipelines and coming from russia. so certainly we will discuss about it and we'll do our best in order to do blog issued to ation. i cannot ensure that these are going to happen because it positions are quite strong . the spied hungry opposition, germany is nevertheless, reportedly planning to ditch russian oil imports. by the end of the year, berlin has already cut the use of russian, or by just over 20 percent since the beginning of the ukraine conflict. i spoke earlier to world of 1st commented, or dr. george government is accountable to its own electorate, not to
3:11 pm
e u officials. we're talking about, i mean, you've mentioned greece, but there are other countries that check area. all of these countries rely on oil from russia. so it's very convenient for many of these countries now to pretend that while we would have really gone along with this thought for hunger, it's because they can use favorite whipping boy for quite some time. so i can just play everything on norma. but basically albany is actually speaking on their behalf . government on civil to their electorate. they're not answer go to the last one, there lie and, and show them to show. and it's facing the devastating economic consequences facing possible serious food shortages. then they're going to say, what are you doing for us if you stand in the way of countries
3:12 pm
having problem function economies, that means countries being able to import in the way of that, then what uses the the g 7 foreign ministers have promised more measures against russia condemning moscow for breaching international law soon and illegal aggression. the statement from the top diplomats of the world's sodium leading economies came in their latest joint communique the russian war of aggression against ukraine as a watershed moment for the 21st century and carries dramatic consequences far beyond europe. we the g 71 to make abundantly clear that we will not sit by whilst countries flagrantly disregard the international rule book on which we all depend for peace, prosperity, security, and stability. while the official is also held russia responsible for the falling global energy and food crisis, they address traditional russian allies like china urging the peoples of
3:13 pm
sovereignty and territory integrity in ukraine not to undermine sanctions imposed in russia. that was met with resistance some, some sneering from beijing, which condemned the demand to you. they went on with the lengthy g. 7 communique is filled with preposterous allegations, not even worth refuting. in total disregard of china's position and objective fact grossly interferes in china's internal affairs. maliciously slanders and smears china and once again exert pressure using such pretext as the russia ukraine. conflict should maybe be pointed out quite a different had should as being witnessed as regards the israeli palestinian conflict as no parties were accused of crimes with the g 7 today. simply calling for peace in their document. it really has traditionally been an ally of the west, which is supplied with arms despite allegations of international law being breached . one of the country's latest missile strikes hit a syrian time killing 5. the west continues to cooperate closely with israel,
3:14 pm
something which is often raised, eyebrows among critics. it is true that the g 7 regimes will not sit by whilst countries flagrantly disregard the international rule book. when that country is israel, they will arm fund and reward its crimes. g 7 communicate from saturday's perfect illustration of western exceptional icing of israel, palestine. while sections on most of the conflicts call for respective international law. human rights and accountability. these rainy palestine power ignores all that and gives awfully lopsided view of reality. that g 7 says that it will not recognize the borders that russia wishes to modify by force. i have to say that this principle does not apply in the case of the state of israel. i discussed the issue with the director of the canadian geopolitical economy, research group thread. he could decide she is of the view. the west is often selective about international law, in accordance with its own interest,
3:15 pm
to keep calling russian actions unproved. regression, they constantly use the word hon. precisely to hide the fact that they have been provoking russia to do this for a very long time. and of course, they are condemning russian action in light of international law. but in reality, what you have to understand is that what the west wants to impose them was what it caused. the rules based international order isn't actually international law, erosion of international law, or a set of rules that are designed to favor western countries. israel has violated the record, the largest number of un resolutions ever of any country in the wall. and every time the u. israel violated the united states, essentially be any united nations action to address that. the duration of the community is another exercise in the kind of hypocrisy that we've been seeing around the world. in my opinion, the rights to one to prolong the conflict in the profiting from it,
3:16 pm
american manufacturers are making profit. and over on top of that, of course, the united states did i go to market bargain, at least on the sophie noticed. we were close the following week prices upsurge. the record highs after india decided to bomb exports after a heat wave hit production, leaving domestic prices soaring g 7 countries condemned the move to stop sending supplies abroad as irresponsible league will ban effect countries like bangladesh and poll, which urgently needed. we also recommend that a concrete decision be taken on the issue at the g 7 meeting of heads of state and government to which india will be invited from stood god. we also call on india to assume its responsibilities as a member of the g 20. this is the diction would not apply in cases where prior commitments have been made by private trade, as well as in situations where permission is granted by the government of india to
3:17 pm
other countries to meet their food security needs and on the requests of their governments. the decision overweight to exports comes amid food security issues in india, itself with predictions of a poor harvest on a record rise in prices. india is the world's 2nd largest weak producer now was expected to replace russian products sanctioned by western countries. new delhi has decided to address its own domestic needs 1st. well, the countries being testing abnormally strong heat wave with mar thing india's hottest day in a 122 years as 47 degrees celsius was reached and deli. although it's too early to know exactly what impact those conditions will have on this years harvest un food organization experts are concerned up to 15 percent of india's crops could be wiped at the same time, the world's main wheat export or russia, is expecting
3:18 pm
a record grain harvest of about 130000000 tons and 87000000 tons of we 2. but like india, russia is limiting its exports to tackle prices on its domestic market. the conflict in ukraine, another major wheat exporter is also impacting the global market. we heard from indian economists v just are dollar on the situation. i think this is criticizing bus, understand that not a mentor has to feed one flight for 1000000000 populations. and if there is a limited impact on the field, and we'd definitely it is a modern guilty of government of india to insure it for $1400000000.00 so that it is only done because a lot cheaper to read it off for clarity, for 1400000 people. so i want an accept the criticism of jesus most of the
3:19 pm
rest. and generally they made sense that they have on all for me and apply for their own on the campus. and they want one except whatever they say. this is unfortunate, and i think they sort of a sensitive that countries like india and other big economies also have their food security requirement, economy development, employment challenges and other issues. and then there's also sort of their own, their own priorities and their own. and again, the russian defense ministry, as soon it's forces blocking the exult style steelworks in marty you, bull will allow the injured ukrainian soldiers to leave the stronghold to seek medical treatment. a hospital in a neighboring time. the russian m o t says it will suspend hostilities up the plant to allow the humanitarian evacuation to go ahead. this monday
3:20 pm
a cease fire is currently in place to allow the corridor to function of bustles for the besieged factory. i've been raging ortiz eager shit down a file. this exclusive report from the territory ah, plumes of smoke trout, the sky over as of stone, missiles more to shells and bombs of nearly all calibus hail down upon the steep factory. with project tiles wearing over our heads, we make way to make the contact line. ah so right now we're in the midst of a regular rotation of the troops with the militia of the dynette peoples republic.
3:21 pm
we are beyond the premises of the as of style steel works as we are moving forward, deeper into the territory of this plant. in mm. the closer we get to the workshops, the more dangerous our pocket comes. this plant has eyes. so a part of the route towards the frontline positions is unsafe because again, all that his separating us and the as of troops as this world moved away and they can start firing at us with good precision to so certain sections, certain portions of our, of our route we have to cross running the parts that are of course, open with
3:22 pm
ground. troops have received orders to refrain from the assault and besieged the neo nazi stronghold. instead, the plants underground bunkers, shelter. thousands of as of fighters left for dead by their own commer. and they still follow their suicidal odor, whitened back. oh, this is the news that he said the after day. of course there are shootings here. the enemy comes out and we open fire on them. we constantly monitor the enemy, their movements and report on it. like even artillery and navigation are also targeting the enemy. it happens that the enemy snaps back shells in response to day . they use mortars with our guys are in the fighting mood. everyone believes in victory that we have enough provisions in our full provided with weapons and ammunition zone by conflict. her. this wall over here is the only barrier that is
3:23 pm
separating us. and the as of battalion that is stationed literally, maybe 200 meters away from here. we're being told that they like to use train carriages train wagons. there's dozens of them over there and the tracks. they like to use them as cover and work underneath that. they've been begging for the international community for their government. they've been begging for the pope even to do something to rescue them. according to them, there are hundreds of injured down there without access to proper medicine. the russian side has been saying, surrender. there's nothing for you to fear in russian captivity. so the russians right now, they're not really storming the positions over the as of near nazi battalion, but rather what they're doing, they just, they just keep firing so that they don't have time. don't have the opportunity to answer back and my gosh, darn of reporting from as of style r t ah rushes,
3:24 pm
kalynne and grad region must be cleared of weapons and renamed, according to a polish politician. this region must be demilitarized so that nato does not sit on a powder keg between its legs. the statement was a likely reference to russia's nuclear capable miss launchers in its most westward region on part of its security shield. the former polish acting defense minister also wants the region renamed of it's called after a soviet era politician. it's not the 1st time either. poland has made claims concerning colon and grub. in march, a general said the region must be hunted back to war, so historically inaccurate claim of the region has never been parched, and poland we spoke to doesn't cover like human rights lawyer who said the situation could escalate to the point of a local conflict. well, poems been acting more and more aggressively even signaling that they may a invade parts of ukraine. they seem to be the stalking horse now for
3:25 pm
nato. so this seems to be, you know, an aggressive statement in o's, maybe signaling that poland, maybe with nato's acquiescence wants to take over the colon and grad region. that's why i think the statement was made. i mean, it does signal that all that region ah, is now seen, is fair game for nato. and that should be again, alarming. russia, i think it's supposed to alarm russia. man, i think we need to be concerned that we could be on the verge of, of war, war 3 and a possible will nuclear war. and that's why this thing needs to deescalate, that's why countries need to work for a peaceful, negotiated settlement of this crisis. okay, something else to expand on now the u. s. will soften sanctions on the northern regions of syria thought or outside the damascus government's control. the u. s.
3:26 pm
treasury department has reapproved activities in a dozen sectors including agriculture, construction and finance. unless void any transactions with the syrian government. now that's us american sanctions continue to hummer series economy. we're 90 percent of people currently live below the poverty line. turkey condemned the removal of sanctions on the ruge of a region on area controlled by the curtis that syrian democratic forces. i. crosby in conflict with the current since 1978 some things. washington's move will coat, legitimized, terrorist groups in the north of syria. we spoke to locals who believed that the lifting of sanctions in one area but not and others won't help syrian people get out of poverty. booty and head of the aim is not at all to help the people of area as much as it is to stir up national strife between all the syrian provinces. the syrian people with their various national religious and political
3:27 pm
components, demand the lifting of the siege on all of syria without any exception. what was the vision of instead that the sanctions will be lifted from northern syria. this will not have an effect on prices because our goods come from damascus and the prices there have tripled after sanctions. i don't, i am in favor of removing the sanctions for the entire syrian people and not for a specific area because they affect all syrian people. i was a big, significant issue on this story as well. us forces are allegedly transporting syrian oil from the al jazeera region of the country into northern iraq, a convoy of around 70 vehicles, including tankers loaded with oil as cross through the illegal al, while lead border crossing into iraq. the fleet was allegedly accompanied by 15 trucks, with military equipment, again bolling for iraq and 6 armored vehicles historian and residents out the lebanese university in beirut. jamal what came believes that washington's plan is to defied syria into 2 parts. not the 1st time that
3:28 pm
the american smuggler, city and oil of northeast and syria, as well in order to sell this oil and finance the military operations, the u. s. military operations and not eastern syria. actually, the american plan as to kind of out of state in northern city, suffered from syria as a means to promote its own agenda. political agenda in the region, which is to divide this region into some states based on the cities that in applications and compressions. it's trying to encourage the north eastern part of the country, not too many trances, the rest of the country. and when they soften the sanctions on this region, they will encounter
3:29 pm
a international companies to invest in the region. and this region will prosper. unlike the rest of the country, where i debate and discussion very much to a for next of course, talk gets going in a moment to join peter the guess. right ahead. i'll see you again in 30 this r t internet. mm hm. ah. the conflict in ukraine continues to pace the situation on the battlefield for the cam regime is going from bad to worse. nonetheless, us and it's nato allies continue to pour in massive amounts of date and weapon diplomacy is still not on the agenda with
