10:01 pm
openly criticize the binding ministration for it's a legit roll and the soaring inflation gripping america the broadcasting live direct from studios in moscow. this is aren't you international lunch on thomas? certainly glad to have you with us. you know, as hundreds of ukrainian fighters from a besieged factory and marble surrender to dunbar forces russia, parliament suggests prohibiting prisoners from ukraine's neo nazi as a battalion from being exchanged. stalker said sir, ne of our position regarding the nazis here must remain unchanged. criminal nazi prisoners should not be exchanged me and these are war criminals and we must do everything to ensure they are brought to justice. russia's defense ministry has announced that more than $260.00 ukranian service men, including from the neo nazi as of battalion,
10:02 pm
have surrendered from their positions in the embattled steel factory in marble. the captured soldiers have been taken to areas and don yeske under the control of dumbass forces. moscow has guaranteed the prisoners of war will be treated in accordance with international standard fruchey's egos, john of comments from the site of the surrender. so you can see the military column of the nets, people's republic hand rush up, both made up of civilian vehicles like dozens of buses. they go all the way downhill over there, all the way down the street, also military vehicles and of course ambulances, including the intensive care vehicles as well. because, well, there's a lot of injured among those who are still hold up on the has of style steel seal works, which is just beyond those houses. right now. they're staying put, they're expecting, they're expecting, we're expecting a hundreds of people, hundreds of neo nazi fighters to lay down arms and well get on the buses. those who are injured, they will be taken to
10:03 pm
a hospital and they will get treatment. there are those who are well still fit, those who are healthy, ah, well, they will be put someplace else with russia waiting for more nationalist forces in multiple to surrender. some of those who laid down their arms in previous battles have decided to help the community while in captivity. marquee spoke with one of those volunteering at the local hospital, was to clean up the garbage was, the floors will carry food and also carry patients. we clean up all around the hospital and the street outside to change the look of the place. we didn't want to fight. why should we? i don't need it. at 1st we thought about escaping. but then we heard that a conscript soldier tried to escape, and as i found him and shot him, we decided to wait for the right moment and we could escape. when our commanders had all left, we were left alone not far from the school. so she went there, the russians were there, we surrender to them, and they brought us here. once,
10:04 pm
when we were at the school, the commander told me that i needed to move a tractor. while i ran to start the tractor as they left somewhere, i started up, they drove out and waited for them. then and personal care drove up and, and as a fighter got out was up. he asked me who i was told me to move 3 minutes away and 53 times, then told me to lie down on the ground. he came up. he started hidden me, want to burn my ear with a lighter. he twisted my fingers and stumped on them with his feet. he said he would take me to his guys, so they would throw me into a p. w me. i didn't know what they would do next. that was just for taking the track. so suppose that despite ukrainian troops laying down their arms, western media has portrayed the event as an evacuation that's relying on the words of ukrainian officials who said that the soldiers have quote left the plant with the support of numerous ukrainian and international organizations. they made no mention of the involvement of russian or don yes. troops. we heard from
10:05 pm
investigative journalist, vanessa billy, who says the establishment media is narrative, is crucial for the west port trail of the conflict. this is an indication of the importance of this war to the last, you know, this isn't the existential war on so many different levels. there are now some mainstream major outlet, particularly in france. that is, and i think when the time is addressing the war, crimes committed against russian prisoners of war by the ukrainian forces, particularly the as of an id card battalion, for example. here instead of course we see a very civilized operation. we see russian soldiers a tearing to international law to geneva convention tree thing. they forget soldiers and ukrainian forces with medical treatment, taking them to the hospital,
10:06 pm
treating them with their respect and dignity that was not given to russian peo. and the fact that worse than major is ignoring the difference in the behavior by side is indicative of their hypocrisy. and actually their criminal support of criminals. and they cannot admit that the russian forces that they have portrayed the brutal invaders or the one thing with decency and humanity gives defense. ministry has published a video of its army, claiming it has pushed back russian forces at the countries at border, near hark of ukraine's 2nd largest city. but questions have been raised about the veracity of that footage. among other things, soldiers in the video are saying that they came to the frontier on april 15th, but for some reason, the footage wasn't published until an entire month later earlier. my colleague unit o'neill heard from correspondent maria phenomena about the matter. most of western
10:07 pm
media have been very quick to spread this news that t if sold them and they were either not very professional, not very accurate with information that were offered or another guess is that maybe the idea was to make people believe that it was true that the credit forces reached the border with russia in high to complete and pushing the russian troops back. no matter it doesn't matter. and i mean how close to reality toys. and it seems that he wasn't quite close to things on the ground. first of all, the days. indeed, the footage was released on may 15th, but the soldiers in the poo 3rd or whoever the odd may be the actors. they say a for let's take a listen. i'm with,
10:08 pm
with how to explain why i call them actors because later and other media was published, showing the same group of people in military uniform carrying. you can see it right now on the screen carrying the frontier post the same blue and yellow board to pose that these people are gathered around in the footage south. got astonishing is that because you can understand for morale, reasons doing that, but actually taping it, that's footage of them lifting it through what seems to be a forest that's surely again. yeah. i think i'd someone decided to choose to film it so that now we can see that they were carrying these post to the film in position for choosing a site choice. that it's not a real case and it's not a real frontier. and this whole thing was not true, but interesting is that this latest to be do with these people carrying the post was most ignored by west media behind spreading the news. and even after it was clearly fake. they didn't even bother to remove this fake news from their painted
10:09 pm
thing else. i want to put out to the reuters news agency. maria has seen questions raised for publishing an article using a photo claiming to show ukrainian soldiers on the front line. it. i think it's the sumi region, but the people in the picture they're carrying pink bowl guns. so that is pretty basic stuff, but can have huge ramifications as you were saying if it's believed yet again, this is information word that we're leaving and apart from having a real bloody will on the ground and stakes very high. who cares about the truth, but seriously like and without justifying o at sac jeanette fake news about military success is something that i can understand. you know, at least the aim is clear but painful picture. while you report on russians been repelled by ukrainians in similar region. i mean to me it's more like about disrespect to journalists. mm. as a whole and lack of professionalism. and if you read the comments to this reuters tweet, you can understand the people. i mean, the ticket the same way i did? well, i never since when is a war being fought with pay ball guns,
10:10 pm
or is this the new armaments that europe and the u. s. a is paying billions for really it reuters next time get your photos correct. do you guys need to vet your images better? those are paint ball guns and masks. those aren't soldiers in combat. does anyone at reuters ever go to a shooting range or play pain ball? so yeah, it is a shame and you can see people that's curious, people are angry but you know, the saddest thing is that this is a blood to conflict. and people from both sides are exhausted. not rotors, a tire, you know, may be on, you know, for reporting on ukraine, but people there are dying, they're suffering, and they wanted to come to an end as soon as possible. and then one piece. and sometimes i think that we as journalists as media community, we can try to help promote peace negotiations. you know, there were several rounds of talks, but eventually, sadly, stop. so we can try to do something to, to bring sides together to push them back to table. but we see the opposite. you
10:11 pm
know, most of the media, they have fueling this conflict and you know, it doesn't help the u. s. senate has been working to expand its war crime legislation to give us court jurisdiction over more international cases. washington has said it's a response to russia's military campaign in ukraine. ortiz, rachel blevins comments. the united states congress is considering a new bill that would give american corps its powers to pursue individuals over allegations of war crimes committed in other countries. and they don't even have to be us citizens, perpetrators committing, unspeakable war crimes, such as those unfolding before our very eyes in ukraine must be held to account. we have the power and responsibility to ensure that the united states will not be used as a safe haven by the perpetrators of these heinous crimes. the new powers would expand
10:12 pm
the 1996 war crimes act with one really important distinction. americans no longer have to be involved as a victim or the offender, but at the suspect steps vote on us soil. they can be tried in court, and there is no statute of limitations, meaning that the charges can never expire. while this change has been proposed before, it was always struck down in the past, over concerns that it would allow us to get a little too involved in other countries. there's domestic prosecution based on universal jurisdiction. could draw the united states into conflicts in which this country has no place and where our national interests are. slight. however, you as lawmakers appear to have had a change of heart, and they say it's all because of ukraine. well, american politicians on the freedom to target anyone in the world, they still don't want the world to put their soldiers on trial. any attempts to do so by the international criminal court have been met with severe backlash over the years. with the bush administration, even signing a bill into law to allow the use of military force in order to free us personnel
10:13 pm
who are detained by the a. c, c, while the u. s. isn't party to the court anyway. the trump administration actually went as far as going out sanctions against i. c. c. officials back in 2020 all because they plan to investigate the u. s. and its allies of, or allegations of war crimes in afghanistan. so what justification did they give for those things? the president will not allow american citizens to be prosecuted by foreign bureaucrats. and he will not allow other nations to dictate our means of self defense. so it's. 6 ok for america to pursue and prosecute foreign citizens around the world as they see fit. but if america is alleged means of self defense, violate international law. and accountability is strictly off limits. american exceptionalism at its finest in washington. rachel blevins, r t. the senate's plans have come as the state department has launched
10:14 pm
a new program to analyze evidence of alleged war crimes in ukraine. the state department has said the program will initially cost $6000000.00 and will examine satellite imagery as well as information shared on social media. russia denies targeting civilians, and has said that some suppose the scenes of war crimes in ukraine appeared to have been staged. we asked international law professor francis boil on why the u. s. wants to expand its authority on a global level. so public relations exercise. part of what we are law professors called warfare using the law as a tool for her. i'm not denying war crimes might have been committed there by ukrainian forces and russian forces. this happens all the time in war, but this is not a good faith investigation by the united states. no, this is, this is law affair using law as
10:15 pm
a tool of warfare against the russian federation. certainly, that's the way i interpret. and of course, there's nothing objective about united states government investigative work crimes . went to the united states government, investigate more crimes and rac, where under bush senior they are killed about 200000 iraqis or in the iraq war 2 by bush junior, where they exterminated may be one point. $5000000.00 iraqis and bush and all the rest of his neocons are running around here. scott free. the rising tensions between nato member states, greece and turkey, as greece as prime minister, has used an address to the u. s. congress to recall numerous past grievances with neighboring turkey, ranging from an aerospace violation to the invasion of cyprus, he called for the legislature to nicks a biden administration,
10:16 pm
deal to sell advanced weaponry to turkey denouncing it as a quote source of instability. the last thing that natal needs at a time when our focus is on helping ukraine defeat russia's. aggression is another source of instability on nato's south eastern flag and ask you to take this into account when you make defense procurement decisions concerning the eastern mediterranean. the great leader has been concerned about biden's proposal to approve $400000000.00 worth of weapons for turkey, including cutting edge and missiles and equipment for anchors fleet of f. 16 fighter jets. at the same time, greece is processing a deal to buy the latest f $35.00 jets and i want to be a grease can be hardly called be only breaking point and relations between nato and
10:17 pm
turkey. as the main agenda in the brussels right now is to accept to finland and sweden in to the military block, but on cra, is against their membership based on the fact that both of those countries have supported forces. turkey defines as terrorists, those northern countries, foreign ministers, reportedly planned to visit anchor to change its stance, but turkey appears, adamant in its concerns is latin integrated. jess, how can we trust them? apparently they are coming to turkey on monday. are they coming to try and convince us, sorry to wear yourselves out here above anything else during this process, we cannot say yes to those who impose sanctions on turkey. on joining nato, which is a security organization, neither country sweden or finland has an open, clear stance against terrorist organizations. told on the west might not even realize how deep the tensions between turkey and nato have been running. that's according to turkish university, professor burris,
10:18 pm
i'll be delhi less has not yet realize how big the conflict is. but gradually the pressure from the u. s. and nate will increase because there is little light time left for the natal mother summit and also the u. s. at nato made say, let's accept feel, and susan as members of nato and then we will solve your problems. i have to say this is unacceptable solution for charging nato itself, one civilian and feel, and a membership more than these countries. because natal wants to close baltic sea to russia by turning the monk c in tune. and nate to late turkey has been supporting naples and lodgement policy open door policy. but i have to say supporting
10:19 pm
naples and large pulse. it does not mean that we will name the tour g, ignore all national security. so that in that says, see an ad finance, how been supporting terrorist organizations against georgia and sorry, and host of all the nations enters at the home. the ear commission has reportedly published a guidance on how member states can pay for russian gas as the block pushes forward with its economic blockade against moscow. warning that opening ruble accounts could violate sanctions. now, the reported guidelines advised maintaining payments in hard currency while letting russian entities convert them into roubles. members, area and poland were earlier cut off from russian gas supplies because they refused to pay in roubles to comply with the request by moscow, france, germany. and for voc you have reportedly agreed to pay in euro's with subsequent conversion to roubles. meanwhile,
10:20 pm
italian officials have even said that the country is ready to open. the rouble denominated bank accounts to keep the gas flowing. italy's prime minister has underlined that the country's trade with russia remains in a gray area and is not currently violating the sanctions. they know official pronouncement what it means to breed, to breach sanctions. it's not nobody's ever said anything about where they are both payments, breach sanctions, or not. it's such a great song here. while you leaders debate about complying with rushes terms for gas payments in rubles, prices have surged. that says that you struggles with the parents, shortages of natural gas supplies. amid the blocks attempts to cut energy dependence on moscow brushes, president putin has warned that if the you completely ends russian fuel imports the blocks economy could crash,
10:21 pm
we're going to keep the rejection of russian energy resources by europe means in the long term that the region will have the highest cost of energy in the world. it's apparent as russian energy resources become destined for the areas. increasing economic activity will also move from europe to the regions. this choice of economic suicide, of course, is an internal matter for european countries. we must start pragmatically and proceed with our own economic interests. first. bruno can be the leader of environmentalists for nuclear energy is convinced. there is no way for the you to cut its rushing gas imports without going into a deep economic recession. it's an apparent paradox, but the situation for europe is that it is heavily dependent on it's the price of gas and the gas is going to be good throwing in the blood vessels. it is vital, therefore, there is not really any choice than to accept the conditions that are posed by russia,
10:22 pm
even if publicly they continue to condemn many countries that france have no call, no gas or oil. europe has a little energy resources, 40 percent of the gas imports in europe is coming from russia. so you cannot just try that away. do you need to continue to purchase russian gas? whatever is the means used to do it. it is needed if it's not done, then it means energy will be lacking. missing. and year goes into deep economic recession. at the cost of goods and services source in the us, americans are seeking answers for such high inflation. for many of them, including some of the richest people in the world, the finger has pointed firmly at the us president and his administration or to kill him up and comments. no one seems to be buying the biden ministrations, claim that the rising inflation is actually all the fault of russia. we have to
10:23 pm
rich, man, milan, mosque, and jeff, they those both speaking up and blaming by for the increasing problem of inflation in the u. s. economy, here's what was that. they know inflation hurts the media the most, but unions aren't causing inflation and neither are wealthy people. remember, the administration tried their best to add another $3.00 trillion dollars to federal spending. they failed, but if they had succeeded, inflation would be even higher than it is today. and inflation today is that a 40 year high? the honest reason for inflation is that the government printed a zillion amount of more money than it had. this is not super complicated. this administration just doesn't seem to get a lot done. it's important to point out that jeff de, those is the owner of the washington post. he's a staunch democrat. you have ilan mosque speaking there as well. you just purchased twitter and acquired ownership over twitter, sand. the 2 of them are blaming the by did ministration. now the situation is getting worse for americans. if you just look at the fact that this point that
10:24 pm
we're talking about 8.3 percent rise and inflation on april, the producer price index is up 11 percent over last year. that's quite a significant increase. goods are simply costing more. now we had the fox news house, tucker carlson, lashing out at the biden administration for their handling of the economic situation in the united states. here's what tucker carlson said. people who run our economy in the us government cost inflation united states and they did it the old fashioned way by printing a ton of money very quickly and that devalued our currency is printing a ton of money very quickly. always does. now a poll show that in texas, for example, half of the residents blame the biden administration for the rising costs, and that's terrier rating situation in the country. many americans are just not happy with the economic situation. they were led to believe that things would get better as the pandemic faded away. and trump was supposed to have been responsible, and biden was coming in to save the day and fix things from,
10:25 pm
from some management. but the economic situation seems to have deteriorated. a lot of americans are unhappy and mid term elections in which the united states will elect a new congress are approaching. people will be heading to the polls in november. so at this point, things don't look good to the democratic party of joe biden. despite the ramp and inflation, the u. s. is set to pass its largest ukraine a package yet on wednesday to send a total of $40000000000.00 to give. but the list of law makers opposed to further aid to crane is growing 2 months ago. 3 people in congress voted against the 1st pro ukraine bill, whereas on tuesday, 57 opposed, a request for weapons and humanitarian aid. for here, that's despite senate minority leader mitch mcconnell, calling republicans opposing aid. quote, isolationist voices. jeffrey young, a democratic candidate for congress in kentucky thinks that such an amount of military aid could be harmful. he also says,
10:26 pm
what he sees is behind the surgeon price inflation to disaster. it's. it's completely wrong and damaging. and if i had been in the us house of representatives, i would have been the only democrat to vote no. there's no way that this military aid can help defeat russia. that's impossible. it will only either be destroyed by russian missiles or fall into the hands of ukrainian nazis. and the main causes of inflation are very long standing policies of the united states and congress. and i would list 3 of them 75 years of grossly excessive spending by congress on needed weapons and illegal unnecessary wars. incomplete
10:27 pm
incompetence of the so called federal reserve for the last 15 to 20 years or more. the reckless, foolish, counter productive and self destructive economic sanctions that the u. s. has placed on russia, china, iran, venezuela, and many other countries. as news for this our i will be back in just under 33 minutes with another full and fresh look she knew. stay with our international ah ah ah
10:28 pm
ah. ah ah lou for the 1st time in history, an entire country's culture has been trashed with

a very modern weapon cancelled culture. really desert one the global sheffield malice so little door in wembley frog. it just me sitting around it with the glue. the phrase now particularly refers to canceling russian culture. yet no secret of see all those go because it has yet to when you miles folks. sure. when she will be all there is charlie mozilla that all the most of the spiritual random e them we reward russia has created over the past 1200 years, has now question partially condemned, reviled and rejected. his sort of line in your study to put something at the will of bramble, there's a lot closer on a whole bunch. thank you said i wasn't sure what they said, thanks all spheres of life, including those in which russia had played leading cultural roles, art, music and sports christian again. and i'm with a full truck with
