12:01 am
greece's prime minister, denounce, is neighboring in turkey as a quote, source of instability, while on cra, adamantly opposes sweden and finland, joining the block with broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow. this is our 2 international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have it with us now has hundreds of ukrainian fighters from a besieged factory mar. you pulled surrender to don bass forces russia's parliament . busy suggests prohibiting prisoners from ukraine's neo nazi as of battalion from being exchanged. a stork? i 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
12:02 am
announced that more than $260.00 ukranian service men, including from the neo nazi as of italian, have surrendered from their positions in the embattled steel factory in mar yeovil, the captured soldiers have been taken to areas and done yet. under the control of don bass forces, moscow has guaranteed, the prisoners of war will be treated in accordance with international standards for his english done of comments now from the site of these are. and 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,
12:03 am
hundreds of neo nazi fighters to lay down arms and well get on the buses. those who are injured, they will be taken to 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 lay down their arms in previous battles have decided to help the community while in captivity or t spoke with one of those volunteering at a 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 when we could escape. when our commanders had all left, we were left alone,
12:04 am
not far from the schools and we went there and the russians were there. we surrendered to them and they brought us here. once when we were at the school, the commander told me that i needed to move a tractor. 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 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 and started hidden me wanted to burn my ear with a lighter. he twisted my fingers and stamped on them with his feet. he said he would take me to his guys, so they would throw me into a p. i didn't know what they would do next. that was just for taking the track. so if it is not that despite ukrainian troops that laying down their arms, western media has portrayed the event as an evacuation that's relying on the words of ukrainian officials who said the soldiers have quote left the plant with the support of numerous ukrainian and international organizations they made no mention
12:05 am
of the involvement of russian or done yet the troops. we heard from stanley johnny, a senior journalist at the popular indian newspaper, the hindu. he says, the west overlooks the presence of neo nazis in the ukrainian armed forces. what actually happened now is that under so there could be, i don't know, that would be negotiate actions or i don't know which are the conditions off this. but practically what we know is that $200.00 plus 5, those who hold up to the russians. and then they were taken to the us people to the public. so this i think i mentioned media was not was reluctant to report as a for the battalion and the organization. and all that done in the headquarters was married. and that's all, but was part of what is part of the national process. so these are the facts. these
12:06 am
are not propaganda. but the problem is that i think once the war began, the west, you know, try to all look for this, not the element because they looked at the main flavor lamb. i think they asked about the goal is to rush up or down and you get in on the other side and also have their own stuff to do. so when the big, i think the big goal is to actually get bogged down in your career and the rest i think will start at all looking the fact that you have now or do you have not fears as part of the planning. and for those kids, defense ministry has published a video of its army, claiming it has pushed back russian forces and the countries border near harko, ukraine's 2nd largest city. but questions have been raised about the veracity of that footage. among other things,
12:07 am
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, re a phenomena about the matter. most of western 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, and other guess is that maybe the idea was to make people believe that it was true that the brennan forces reached the border with russia in high to complete and pushing the russian troops back. no matter it doesn't matter. let me know how close to reality tours 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 poor 30, or whoever the odd may be the actors they say a for let's take a listen with,
12:08 am
with how to explain why i call them actors because later in 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 it? because you can understand for morale, reasons to hang up, but actually taping at that footage of them lifting it through what seems to be a forest that's surely again. yeah, i think i'm someone decided to take to film in so that now we can see that they were carrying these post to the film and is this ra chosen a? so it shows that it's not a real case and it's not a real frontier. and this whole thing was not true,
12:09 am
but interesting is that this latest be do with these people carrying the post was most ignored by west media behind spreading this news. and even after it was clear that it's fake, they didn't even bother to, to remove this fake news from their painted 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. 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 war that we're leaving. and apart from having a real bloody will on the ground and stakes very high. who cares about the truth been seriously, like i 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,
12:10 am
it's more like about disrespect to journalists. mm. as a whole, a 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 pe ball guns, or is this the new armaments that europe and the usa 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 are furious. people are angry, but you know, the saddest thing is that this is a bloody conflict and people from both sides are exhausted. not rotors, ac tire, you know, may be on, you know, for reporting on ukraine. but people, they are a dying, they're suffering and they wanted to come to an end as soon as possible, and they want peace. and sometimes i think that we as channel is as media community,
12:11 am
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 know, most of the, me to their 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 courts jurisdiction over more international cases. washington has said, it's a response to russia's military campaign in ukraine. ortiz ritual blevins comments . the united states congress is considering a new bill that would give american court 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
12:12 am
have the power and responsibility to ensure that the united state drives then he takes war crimes act with one really important distinction. americans no longer have to be involved as a victim or the offender. but if the suspect steps that 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 concerned that it would allow the us to get a little too involved in other countries affairs. 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, us lawmakers appear to have a change of heart, and they say it's all because of ukraine. but all 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 the deer backlash over
12:13 am
the years with the bush administration, even signing and bill into law to allow the use of military court in order to free us personnel who are detained by the i c, c, while the u. s. isn't party to the court anyway. the trump administration actually went as far as run out sanctions against icpc officials back in 2020 all because they plan to investigate the us and its allies over allegations of war crimes. and i can't stand, 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 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. all then accountability is strictly off limits. american exceptionalism at its finest. in washington, rachel robins, r t, v
12:14 am
u. s. senate's plans have come as the state department has launched 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 it seems 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 as a public relations exercise, or part of what we are law professors called warfare using the law as a tool porter. 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,
12:15 am
this is law affair using law as 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 investigating work crimes. went to the united states government, investigate more crime scene rack. 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. rising tensions between nato member states, grief and turkey, as greece as prime minister, has used an address to the u. s. congress to recall numerous past grievances with neighboring turkey. from an aerospace violation to the invasion of cyprus,
12:16 am
he called for the legislature to mix a biden administration deal to sell advanced weaponry to turkey denouncing it as a quote source of instability. the last thing that natal needs out of time, one of focus is on helping ukraine defeat russia's. aggression is another source of instability on nato's south eastern flank and ask you to take this into account when you make defense procurement decisions concerning the eastern mediterranean leader has been concerned about biden's proposal to approve 400 $1000000.00 worth of weapons for turkey, including cutting edge missiles and equipment for aggressive fleet of f. 16 fighter jets english but at the same time, greece is processing a deal to buy the latest f $35.00 jets. but grease can be hardly called the only breaking point in relations between nato and turkey. as the main
12:17 am
agenda in brussels right now is to accept finland and sweden into the military block. but arkwright is against their membership based on the fact that both of those countries have supported forces. turkey defines as terrorists those nordic countries. foreign ministers reportedly planned to visit our grad to change its stance, but turkey appears adamant in its concerns. london in england, just how can we trust them? apparently they're coming to turkey on monday to are they coming to try and convince us? sorry, where yourselves out. 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 being a member of the military block does not mean that our gra should ignore its own national security. that's according to turkish university. professor virus
12:18 am
a be delhi. the 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 like 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 finland, membership more than these countries. because nato wants to close baltic sea to russia by turning the baltic sea in tune. and they too late. turkey has been supporting naples and large policy open door policy, but i have to say supporting naples and large pulse. it does not
12:19 am
mean that we will name the tour g, ignore our all national security. so that's in that says see the finance have been supporting terrorist organization against 30 not and 3, and also there's organizations and terrors at the home as 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 is pointed firmly at the u. s. president and his administration r t scale them 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 2 rich man, no on 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 said. they know inflation hurts the media to most,
12:20 am
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 at 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. and 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 we're talking about 8.3 percent rise and inflation in april, the producer price index is up 11 percent over last year. that's quite a significant increase. a goods are simply costing more. now we had the fox news
12:21 am
house tucker carlson, lashing out at the biden administration ration in the united states. here's what tucker carlson said. people who run architects and they did it the old fashioned way. 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 terry 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, 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 out. people will be heading to the polls in november . so at this point, things don't look good for the democratic party of jo by the main causes. inflation are very long standing policies of the united states
12:22 am
and congress. i would list 3 of 75 years of grossly excessive spending by congress on needed weapons and illegal unnecessary wars. incomplete incompetence of the so called federal reserve for the last 15 to 20 years or more. the reckless, foolish counter productive and sanctions that the u. s. has placed on russia, china ran dennis way, law and many other countries. despite the ramp inch inflation, the u. s. is set to pass its largest ukraine a package yet on wednesday. send a total of $40000000000.00 to give. but the lead to ukraine is growing 2 months ago . 3 republicans in the house of representatives voted against the 1st pro ukraine and built. whereas on tuesday, 57 republicans in the house opposed,
12:23 am
a request for weapons and humanitarian aid for 2 years. meanwhile, the senate minority leader, mitch mcconnell, has criticized fellow republicans opposing the aid as quote, isolationist voices. but democratic candidate, jeffrey young again, also thinks that such an amount of military aid could be harmful. it's a 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. pakistan's recently ousted prime minister, him run con,
12:24 am
has address yet another enormous demonstration with tens of thousands of people gathering in the northern city of co, hot to support him. the former leader reiterated the accusations of us meddling in pakistan's domestic politics, suggesting washington orchestrated his dismissal last month. i know the americans very well. they will never give you their dollars without a reason. if they help you, they will take you deeper into their slavery. so i am here to day because we have to rise up, we will fight for real independence. con was ousted in a no confidence vote by parliament on april 10th. and then a reputedly pro western politician was installed in his place. con has been laying the blame on the wes claiming washington had him removed because he was not following their policy directions. many pakistani have expressed that they distrusted the new government and still support. con william indigo. the americans only protect their own interests. they can attack and us to interfere in our
12:25 am
matters, but we are poor. okay. we can't compromise our self respect. got them, they can forced to do this and that we can't be their slave of july. i like those countries that are good friends with us. i don't like the american speak, they are enemies because they called slaves. i really can't tolerate that attitude ah, to strengthen cooperation amid rising global instability, experts from china, russia, india, and iran, as well as several other asian countries have gathered in the russian city of new, new novgorod for an annual meeting of the val di, discussion club of the club gathers experts in international politics, security, energy, and finance. with this year's features underlying the importance of collaboration to overcome good, our current global challenges. the caught up with one of the analysts at the conference conference. and i think the potential for development of trade between russia anesha exists. the potential is huge. however,
12:26 am
the countries in asia and russia have to resolve a lot of logistical issues because it rushes logistical support systems of delivery . we're primarily orient woods, the west. they would not oriented the woods issue, so we need to develop those routes to deliver goods. so for example, the north, salt water door, these are all things that have to be done so that we can improve trade. but these are not the things that can happen overnight. it will require money. it'll require a lot of political will to the faster we stock, the better it into a relationship with russia were never determined by the west. so the western attitudes are not going to change indian approach to russia up of course, india has a separate and independent relationship with the west. and that is not determined by the relationship with russia. so india is
12:27 am
a comfortable having separate relationships and has no problem with that. so russia need not worry. i think the potential for development of trade between russia neisha exists. the potential is huge. however, the countries in asia and russia have to resolve a lot of logistical issues because it rushes logistical support systems of delivery . we're primarily oriented towards the west. there we're not oriented towards asia, so we need to develop those routes to deliver goods. so for example, the north south corridor, these are all things that have to be done so that we can improve trade. but these are not the things that can happen overnight. it will require money, it'll require a lot of political will. to the faster we start, the better it is. about $31.00 and a half minutes. i will be back with another phone fragile. good news. this is our
