ah ah ah, with one of the firing positions that the eyes of battalion unifier back you may look like a regular fox. but in fact, it isn't because the tunnel running all the way under ground, under the path of our correspondent report from the other stall, fight shimoda. you pull up where the last pockets of ukrainian fighters in the city had surrendered. russian underneath forces are now in control of the facility, including a vast network of underground tunnels, where ukrainian troops had been hiding for months. with joe biden signs, legislation to send $40000000000.00 to you cray enough, despite us struggling with its highest inflation rates in for decades, bite and blame the price inflation on russia. that's not all americans are buying that rhetoric. you can thank the activity vladimir putin for

invading ukraine and pulling as long as i was with all due respect. madam secretary, that's utter nonsense is opposed to the attempt by nordic states, sweden and finland to join nato. unless they address on car is security concerns. we look at the frustration that turkey has been causing within the western alliance and africa style region suffering from persistent terrorist attacks comes to the attention of the un, which calls for the resumption of international efforts to ensure security. with welcome to the weekly here on audience a national one is peter scott. and these are some of the stories that shape the weak aeronautics, the last pockets of ukrainian military resistance in marty you pull has surrendered at the as of steel plans, which had been on the c almost 3 months. a total of $2439.00 ukrainian troops have

laid down their arms or the facility in recent days. the head of the dentist republic says ukrainian militants may still remain up as of stall and the ones that have been captured could face the tribunal for a legit crimes against civilians. moscow has reaffirm that all those prisoners will be treated in line with international norms. ukraine's express hopes to exchange them for captured russian troops mirror russian underneath forces. how started the mining operations at the hours of salvatore? ortiz egos done of reports in the facility? this is the as of so few words, basically this says weren't new nazis and radicals of all shapes and flavors will lock to and sheltered both we are not season regularly pregnant with this is one of the fiery positions that the eyes of battalion use. if you will fire back

because he may look like a regular foxhole, but in fact, it isn't because there's a ton of running all the way under ground under the hostile seal work. so they k p a months ago and they were waiting hear, praying were expecting key of expecting for someone to save them and all of them, but that didn't happen. eventually they received the order to brenda, so they did all who the 200000 of them. so essentially, yeah, but, but it may seem like a very strict with event spots out with progress with evacuation. well, maybe that's how they come about mission logically and very few, some wrote it. some said it like it is they surrendered. they chose to be prisoners of war. they are now in good hands of the internet's great republics. but they're telling me they've been telling us that their wounds, there is a very poor state,

they're infected because, well just because of the conditions that they've been staying at. but those who are healthy, well, they have been placed in penitentiary facilities of both the, the next people's republic and russia. and there's been no question about what's going to happen to them. a ration going on behind me because they bring the place. but as soon as this operation event progresses, well, i will definitely show you this place makers done a proposal. he has of stealthy works. many of the surrendered soldiers have been spotted with not see tattoos. so them have a skull and bones image on their hands, mimicking the totes and cop symbol used by s. s. troops. although se, resembling an eye and cross the german military award of the 3rd reich among those who have surrendered him out of your pl isn't. as of battalion commander has a closer look at what else the group is known for. ah, the courts or just

a moment. okay. yeah. well what did i was arrested by the as often as the you men the bet me on the head and legs for

the chain fired the gun close to my ear. threatened to shoot me the head or should my feet, they humiliated me and said they were going to write me. they threatened to bring my wife and daughters in and talk to them in front of me. i could not eat for 3 days. i was one of those many battalions that the t up will need yield. they are what they are elsewhere on the front line russians, humanitarian workers have made a number of accusations against ukrainian authorities. treatments of the civilian population was, goes accused ukrainian army of neglecting the needs of the local population on even shutting residential buildings and killing civilians. including in the city of nikolai africa in little guns republic. moscow claims western media outlets have filmed the shooting to later use it to lodge allegations against the russia military. moscow say that on saturday alone, it's evacuated under the 20000 people away from frontline areas to russian territory in the northern ukrainian region of harker. shelley has damaged several

buildings in the city of los via ukrainian president. william is the length is official telegram channel carried a video of the shelling, st wounded 11 people, including an 11 year old child, which is not yet commented on those accusations. earlier we discussed the latest developments with the executive vice president of the razors tend to think tank rasmussen on investigative journalist edward south here in the u. s. of every eat, turn on the regular news. but obviously if you turn on the main stream media and the newspaper, it sounds like my gosh, when is russia going to laugh? i mean, your crane is winning. so hands down why, why is this work still going on? and it's completely opposite it. we've got a very, very, very strategic, well plan, methodical approach being done by the russian army. it no

credit given here and it's lately the opposite direction so, so from immediate perspective, they don't want to surrender. so i think is a very, very, very good approach. the president took here and isolating the city, putting the, basically it's a prison. they are essentially in until they really had no choice either they star themselves or, or die of injuries or, or friends come out. just this is a move that their leader should have done a long time ago. several weeks ago. the defeats of the forces are in the eyes of still plan to install and to send it to mary opal. they represented what could be considered to be the most trained, most zealous, most committed forces that the ukrainian army had. and also this is bits of a victory that of the tire world can't deny. right?

it's something that has been a question here on the west for watching the war from sing social media post office . you seeing the statements by the west. the statement by the government of russia are wondering what the truth is. small something that is undeniable is that when a flag is raised, this is the, i guess at the elephant in the room is no one is able to factually or journalistically deny that the group that's being placed on trial, the leaders, the soldiers during placed on trial are neo nazis who committed war crimes, the west will presented by ignoring it, downplaying it and of course, condemning russia for carrying out these very just judicial actions. the u. k. is repulsively planning to send weapons to moldova, to help the eastern european country protect itself. when perceived russian threat, but with britain already arming, you create a new media report claims london wants to keep that war going for its own political agenda almost unnoticed by the world. the path to

a cease fire is being complicated by some long distance belligerents, 3 top members of the united kingdom's government. prime minister boris johnson. foreign minister list trust and defense minister ben wallace have all starting the war in ukraine a boost to their political fortunes. the case being among the strongest supporters of ukraine boys, johnson has even visited care to pledge his personal backing for the war effort. last week, london approved more than a 1000000000 pounds of miniature, a to ukraine, with some senior u. k. officials, even thing the key of could legitimately use western supplied weapons to targets, bush and territory. it comes as boys. johnson's government is under increasing criticism and home of the notorious party gate scandal, in which he hosted a party doing a covey low down. but you k communist party, sexy robert griffith says the prime minister is not only drawing attention away from his own scandals using the war in ukraine to distract away from domestic crises, to really much in the interest of boyish johnson and those around him. in fact, to see this,

this conklin continue in ukraine so that he can continue to structure the place and appear on various stages around the world posing as a great champion of the ukrainian people. of course, we know from goddess johnson's past record, the moment it suited him to pull the plug on our support for ukraine. he would do it. and this is a, there is a se, mentioned circulation in britain to some extent, which is the britain nato, and the united states. and the european union prepared to defend ukraine to the last drop of ukrainian blood. so it really is, it's all looking ready, very cynical alone. nobody is really calling johnson very strongly at the moment. i think that could change, especially as the cost of living crisis gets worse. the government refuses to help

people and we're sending 3000000000 pounds of military and other assistance to the ukranian government. well, joe biden signed a $40000000000.00 aid package for ukraine us despite republican lawmakers wanting. there's a serious lack of oversight into where exactly that money might end up us congressman chip. roy emphasized that as america face the surging price, inflation on other problems, that's $8.00 money would be better spent at home. and i'm wondering when we voted to go to or if we were going to have a proxy war and we're going to get $40000000000.00, the ukraine, because we wanna what all fancy will are blue and yellow ribbons. feel good about ourselves. maybe we should actually have a debate in this chamber, a debate in this body because the american people expect us to do that when the border of this country is wide open in cartels have control of it, and fennel is boring in and we have $30.00 trillion dollars, a debt and gas prices are spiking and 1100 hours to fill a tank, a diesel,

and we go blank check. $40000000000.00. and by the way, i'm looking at my colleagues on this side of the aisle on that same point. many americans are still going to meets the basic needs, is the annual inflation rates in the country remains closer 40 year high, the producer price index, which trucks, how much manufactures gets full products at their initial sale. rose 11 percent from a year ago. that's according to the bureau of labor statistics. and us authorities are trying to lay the blame on russian president vladimir putin. bullets the u. s. inflation crises started long before the war. and ukraine as aussies, kennedy hoping, explains. it's all to him his fault. they're saying it over and over. i'm gonna do everything i can to minimize prudence, price hike here at home. you may have noticed this week that your gas prices have gone up. i want to talk to you a little bit about why a lot of it has to do with vladimir putin. it is really cool. is price hike in terms of gas prices continuing to go in the wrong direction. it is good tags, like this is what we're talking about. the data actually shows prices had been

rising for quite some time. they did not start with events in ukraine. some people are actually looking into the facts, checking the data. you can thank the activity of vladimir putin for invading ukraine and pulling as associate with all due respect. madam secretary, that's utter nonsense. in january of 2021, the average gas price of my state was $2.07. 8 months later, 8 months later, long before vladimir putin invaded ukraine, that price was up over 30 percent and it has been going up consistently. since alley is pointing out, that biden should be shouldering some of the blame his administration's energy policies have not exactly been a stimulus cancelling leases, pushing windmills and solar panels stopping drilling. all of that is going to lead to energy prices going up. the biden is sticking with these policies for moving tier, just put out a statement. and the statement basically says

a proposed program is not a decision to issue specific leases or to authorize any drilling or development. this is from y'all's office. so it looks like you're on his to shut everything down . did you new york? that is i, i am, am i sorry i, i am sitting in this hearing and, and not my god, somebody. this shuts down the american people are getting pretty sick of this poll . show that they don't buy the idea that russia is to blame, or that it's their patriotic duty to accept all of this out of blind love for ukraine. bumper stickers at gas farms across the country are giving joe biden. some of the credit he apparently deserves. whitehouse. wants to blame inflation on the russia, ukraine war in eastern europe, but the u. s. itself went to war in iraq and afghanistan and more, and we didn't see inflation like this from it. joe biden. inflation isn't my fault . it's because of putin's price hike. okay. also joe biden, and you get 40000000000 and you get 40000000000 and you get 40000000000. it's not

putin's price hike. let's call it what it really is. bite inflation. the buck ends with me, but putins price hike and everybody is responsible for the huge mess i created, except for me as biden's, popularity keeps thinking amid controversial economic policies. one has to wonder how long before he blames that on putin as well. caleb martin r t new york. former us president george w bush moss. he dismissed as a slip of the tongue condemned the quotes on justified on bristol invasion of iraq . he then quickly declared that he meant to say ukraine not iraq. human rights watch has said it was the freud in slip of the century. independent journalist richard met hurst comments on like off. the result is an absence of checks and balances in russia. and the decision of one man to launch a holy, unjustified, and brutal invasion of iraq. i mean,

of ukraine. correct. anyway, i talked about a freudian slip, i think that's the mother of all freudian slips. it really exposes the whole hypocrisy of the situation that we're in right now. is that men like george bush and women like honda, lisa rice, they've killed i. who knows, really, i don't think will ever know the true number, but in the millions, literally in the millions of people in there, a war on terror. cuz that's they are the ones who started the war on terror. and that's been used to bomb 19 different countries, the authorization for the use of military force. and there was passed in the days after $911.00 and they're still using to this day. that's the u. s. law, it's not an international law. it doesn't have any legal basis outside the borders of the united states. this is the twilight zone that we're in is that if you invade countries and you bon countries and you kill a 1000000 people, but you do it as the british and americans. it's okay. you're, you're a liberator. if you're russian, you're not allowed to have security concerns and you're war criminal and it's very

clear cut, as this guy ever received as much of a bad rap as they're getting put in right now. no, no, he certainly hated, but not, not to this level. i mean, no one band americans from buying houses in the, you know, in band american food or american trees or american cats or american music. no, none, none of this happened. there's nothing like that in europe. or, or in the west, he got away with it, and he's standing up there now giving lectures about about invasions, ah, in the news the un has sounded the alarm over increasing concerns in africa saw hell region where an estimated 18000000 people or the brink of starvation, the mid african region faces a multitude of challenges from recurrence, terrorist attacks to problematic climate change. it dental ease of terrorism and insecurity continue to spread devastating the lives of millions of people. civilians are often the main victims of terrorist acts. the suffering and loss of civilian populations at the hands of terrorist groups as indescribable. but future

generations will also pay the price. for over a decade, this belt of london are a desert, has been trapped in violence. the region is home to some of the world's deadliest terrorist groups, such as al qaeda and islamist state affiliates which continue the stage of times killing civilians and government soldiers last year, death from terrorism in the style region, accounts for 35 percent of the global total and intentional or authorities have failed to prevent an escalation in the violence. france recently scaled down is engagement in the region from its former colonial state molly. we spoke with an associate professor at the university of south africa, who is sure the crisis in the saw has actually stemmed from the foreign interference in the region. carol, he's in continued to continue to exist in dr. jim, because the original nature i'm just doing gotten, it was off immediately. he stayed time soon. the are i little bit friends in miley

colonizing dead. and susie and our veterans, all the west and forces are for the guy in disney. got mildly, the main unstable there continent of oddly got the means on you goes over here is, is all the western countries, those say indonesian out of choices when they enter, then most of them the tim. com, they're refis it in or but large and i and i, jen does not want bonds in drugs of deluca, but there are 2 point pick the interest of their west and county and does it inform them we find we need to understand our yes, there will be in general conflict among the people of the same issue, but my argument is bad. in most of the cases, the divisions are freely from outside by external forces. frances cold only be as rival goodman's to sit down for negotiations of falling. a

recent round of armed clashes in the capital, tripoli ironically parts was the 1st order explains to bomb libya during nato's 2011 military intervention, which helped toppled the government of long time. he didn't want gadhafi. it belongs to our country into a decade of turmoil. ortiz rome. acosta has more, not a decade after the western military intervention. the libyan capital, tripoli has once again descended into chaos. as gun fights break out between rival factions. oh, look, good. stability vanished from libya as soon as its long time leader more mar gadhafi was violently murdered and the country tumbled into a civil war. the latest standoff is between in yula appointed prime minister 5 he

by chava and arrival premier abdul hamid baber. but chicago was named prime minister by the country's east base parliament in february, but his un backed rival the baber, his based in tripoli, and to has refused to step down. but sugars arrival in tripoli sport a gun fight, and he later made a decision to leave the capital. despite our peaceful entry to tripoli, without the use of violence or force of arms and our reception by the r, will people of tripoli, we were surprised by the dangerous military escalation carried out by armed groups affiliated with the outgoing government. libya hasn't seen a lasting peace in over 10 years. the country's crisis of legitimacy failure to hold elections and constant civil conflicts have already transpired. info, humanitarian catastrophe. the united nations says more than $800000.00 libyans now

require targeted humanitarian assistance, migrant asylum seekers and refugees. in libya, including size and return to libya by the libyan coast guard as to being intercepted at sea while trying to reach europe faced arbitrary detention during which many reportedly experienced ill treatment, sexual assault, forced labor and extortion bound groups, smugglers and traffickers. for some reason, nearly all of the latest recipients of so called american democracy happened to be oil rich countries or had some sort of other natural riches to offer libya was no exception. once a major regional economic claire, it's struggling to day learn moxie camille production has fallen by about 600000 barrels day losses or at least 60000000 daily. what this be happening if the unprovoked military intervention in libya, by a us led coalition had never taken place,

would the country have collapsed and the multiple arm groups thrived. if gadhafi was phillip bower is hard to say, since the responsible party, nato always seems to disguise its regime change operations. with good intentions, nato played a vital role in protecting civilians and i'm proud of what we have achieved. we did the right thing in the right way and we achieved the right result. i saw that with my own eyes in tripoli. the united states certainly isn't one to admit any wrongdoing in its actions. washington may refuse and deny and continued to say it champions verges. even if the whole world robs the american noses in their errors. i'll say these for the need been people. i think president obama made the right decision at the time, and the only been people has a free election the 1st time since 1951. and you know what they voted from moderates. they voted with the help of democracy. and now,

after 11 years of conflict unleashed by a nato and the united states, do the citizens of libya have any hope left for such a democracy. circus said they will oppose finland and sweden from joining nato. thus, unless the 2 nordic countries address and cars concerns about their support for their calls, terrorist organizations. now finland, unsweetened applied for membership this week mark in an n, that long history of neutrality. finishers along border with russia. but turkeys demanded that finland, unsweetened deal with kurdish militants allegedly harboured in those nordic states . western leaders have expressed confidence that on cars objections will not be a roadblock for the membership process. does take all 30 nato members to agree on. i'm missing a new member ortiz, rachel blevins reports on how the collective west has been surprised by turkey's move. nato is back in the headlines as the u. s. 5 for finland and sweden to becoming newer members of the alliance. but not everyone on board with

a plan which brings up the importance of nato's democratic system, where everyone gets a say and everyone works together. neither promotes democratic values and enables members to consult and cooperate on defense and security related issues to solve problems build trust and in the long run prevent conflict. a native decision is the expression of the collective will of all 30 member countries. since all decisions are taken by consensus, in this case the nino member who object washington plan is turkey as it uses finland and sweden have tied to groups. it considers terrorist care view terrace designation for the courtesy and worker's part or p k k. and it's affiliate has also created conflict with the us, as washington has supported kurdish rebels in syria. and that's not the only area of contention between the nato allies. as the media tax on turkey kicked off, they reminded the public that the u. s. still hasn't forgotten about one church. you signed a deal the purchased rashes as 400 air defense systems back in 2017. when you can't

win by traditional rules, go around them. there was a lot of thought given toward vanishing turkey from nato anyway, especially after president air due on bob, russian as 400 air defense systems from moscow. 3 years ago. perhaps now is precisely the moment simply to stand up to these loan strong men who have managed to burrow their way deeply into democratic institutions. and while nato was on the hug for new members, turkey's disagreement with washington has even led column, as in canada to call her to be expelled from the alliance altogether. expel turkey from nato, should result multiple challenges until now. turkey has been a 5th column of islamism embedded within the west to undermine it. that sentiment can also be found in europe, where ghast on polish tv argue that turkey would be better off and in alliance with rush. it's time to expound turkey from meadow. let it go to russia, let it go to china, let it go to a wrong good ratings. now,

if you're wondering whether it's possible for nato to get rid of one of its members, well, this isn't the 1st time media talking heads have attempted to put turkey on the chopping block, or maybe argument that it is perfectly legal for the country to be expelled. from the alliance, and it turns out nato isn't the only one looking to get rid of its core democratic principles when they get in the way. your opinion is also openly questioning whether it should keep similar policies in place, which is notable as some member states acute hungry of holding the block hostage. because it won't agree with their plan to impose an oil embargo against russia. i have always argued that you and mickey voting in some key areas, simply no longer makes sense. if we want to be able to move faster. so given these calls to silence and even block, those who challenge the plans of the loudest voices in an alliance well and it would appear, those voices only favor democracy when they're getting their way in washington.

rachel blevins, r t. those the new stories, the shape the we care on, are the international for more on any of them do with the r t dot com. i'm piece of scott's i me back again with another look in just over 30 minutes. ah. with

a killer on the initial be one of them not to get a can use to put body when you when you do or change but you also still with the done those a gym. okay. i didn't know so much. i was like one to thought that i've done wrong with you. i see the student bussey's dog room, you.
