ah ah, this is one of the firing positions that has a battalion. you will find a way to look like a regular foxhole. but it isn't because it's running all the way under ground on that because i'm so we report from the still work. thanks for in the dumbass city of mario paul, where the remaining ukranian garrison troops rendered to russian lead forces this week to abide independence tracy backlash in the us off to sign a 40000000000 dollar a package for ukraine. despite spiraling inflation and product shortages at home, well, some ukraine at some american know make isn't all buying the excuse, but it's all rushes help. and you can thank the activity

vladimir putin for invading ukraine and pulling as long as i was with all due respect. my secretary, that's utter nonsense tech. he opposes an attempt by sweden and finland to join nato unless they address encore, a security can fund. we look at the rift within the western military alliance with a very well welcome you watching the weekly on the international bringing to you the latest world news, along with the stories that shaped the past week, it gets happy with her. and the last pockets of ukrainian military resistance in mario pl has surrendered at the as of style still plugged, which has been on the stage for almost 3 months. almost 2500 ukrainian troops. among the many members of the neo nazi as of battalion have laid down that the facility in recent days. mosca was we have found that all those prisoners will be

treated in line with international norms. ukraine has expressed hopes to exchange them for camp should russian troy me while russian and on yes, have started d mining operations at the as of style sanctuary. i'm finished on of gives, as his exclusive report from the facility. this is the as of style still works basically this cesspit word neo nazis and radicals of all shapes and flavors will lock 2 and shelton. both we are not season regularly breaking. for example, if you with this is one of the fiery positions that the, as a battalion used to fire back, you can, you may look like a regular foxhole. but in fact, it isn't because there's a tunnel running all the way under ground under the cell seal works. so they came here months ago and they were waiting hear,

trying were expecting key of expecting for someone to save them well, evaporate them, but that didn't happen. eventually they received the order to brenda, so they did, it may seem like a very strict with events, but also with struggled with evacuation. well maybe that's how they come about mission logic and very few or some wrote it. some said like it is, they surrender, they chose to be prisoners or war. they are now in good hands, ultimate and saying that the next public. but they're telling me they've been telling us that there are well, there, at the 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 nets, people's republic and russia. and there's been no question about what's going to happen to them. right on the ration going on behind me because favorite,

the place is leaving. but as soon as this operation don't serve and progress as well, i will definitely show you more this place. i think i done a proposal still works. see, a blast has been reported it in the city of n, a good thought and ukraine's zap hello sky region. as the local man has reportedly been the target of an assassination attempt, according to officials, they're a bone was remotely detonated off. the andre shift jacob entered his apartment, building the marys not being treated for his injuries in hospital. he said to have received numerous death threats in recent days over his cooperation with russian forces who currently control the area in southern ukraine. the turbine has signed a $40000000000.00 a package for ukraine despite republican lawmakers warning there's a serious lack of oversight into where exactly that money might and up us congressmen. chip roy, emphasize that is america. faith is searching price,

inflation and other problems that aid money would be better spent at home. and i'm wondering when we voted to go to or if people were gonna have a proxy war, and we're gonna get $40000000000.00 to ukraine because we wanna what all fancy with our blue and yellow ribbons. feel good about ourselves. maybe we should actually have a debate in this chamber, a debate in his body because the american people expect us to do that when the border of this country is wide open and cartels have control of it. and fennel is pouring in and we have $30.00 trillion dollars, a debt and gas prices are spiking and $1100.00 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 struggling to me. that basic needs, as the annual insatiable race in the country remains close to a 40 year high to produce a price index, which tracks how much manufacturers get the products at their initial sales was with an 11 percent from a year ago. as,

according to the bureau of labor statistics and u. s. authorities are trying to lay the blame on russia's president flatmate who said that the us inflation crisis started long before the war in ukraine. unties california and explain. it's all putin's fault, they're saying and 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 in it is really cool. is price hike in terms of gas prices continuing to go in the wrong direction. it is good tag, this is what we're talking about. the data actually shows prices have 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 holly 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. moving to just put out a statement. and the statement basically says a proposed program is not a decision to issue specific places 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 to new york. that is, i, i am, i am, sorry i, i am sitting in this hearing and, and not my god, somebody that 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. boyd inflation, the bucket 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 sinking amid controversial economic policies. one has to wonder how long before he blames that on putin as well. caleb martin,

r t new york. it could take ukraine 15 to 20 years to join the a year. that's according to a french government minister. the latest statement from power is, comes off the president, mclaren, and germany's chancello. so expressed uncertainty about key as a swift accession to the european union. do not unpack with deep pro, ukraine has applied to become a member of the european union. and the commission is expected to give its assessment of the application before the european council at the end of june. at the same time, we all know a manual and the crown is right when he points out that the assessing process is not a matter of few months or even a few years ministry. but even if we grant ukraine candidate status tomorrow than the instruction has done, and i hope that we will quickly move to european union membership. however, we all know perfectly well that the process allowing them to join would take several years. in truth, probably several decades. me well, washer. so is it no longer fees?

ukraine being allowed to join the a you with part of the pace agreement. moscow now insists that key should meet, maintain a neutral status both when it comes to nato on the european union, as according to russia's deputy envoy to the us. meanwhile, a former us ambassador to russia has concerns that ukraine was miss led to believe it would be allowed to join nature in 2021. we kept reiterating that ukraine was going to join our diplomats are lying. yeah. so yes, that is the real world. let's discuss these developments with political commentator john brig monk now many thanks for joining us on the program. it's nice to see. so considering that ukraine was misled by the west about its possible entry to nato, do you think he should be putting his faith in actually joining the e u. i don't think they should, and they should never have at their feet in joining nato in the 1st place. the di

know, that you just mentioned with professor walt, where, you know, some of the, some of the says to him, yes, it's there. and then he says, well, and then you expect questions to believe us when we give assurances to of something that i mean, you see, the problem is in these, i mean, who is good to thursday night the season going to the west. now you up obviously doesn't want to go into the opinion because to the different economy is different wages and everything and it would be used action from the population. don't forget that when there was a referendum in the holland about an association with you can it was projected by the population. so you hope it's not going to allow that. italy, speaking of another scheme of a confederation, germany said it's not going to happen. francis is not going to happen and these 3 countries say that's not going to happen. because if you have to know to what's going to, he may not be trained when the war stop,

you don't know with other war will stop. what is the most interesting development these last few days is to say the toilet the new york times, where they basically say where we are losing the war. we can do more for you can. and you can as to make the choice, is that necessarily the 2nd phase, especially territorial sacrifice, is that are necessary to end the war. that's a very important development because i think the new york times is more important for us policy than the president the night. it's it says, and if they say, well, you know, not doing well and you have to make sacrifices, then i thing as it is, he has to think about it and he's already talking about replacing diplomacy before the diplomacy. you know, we need 1st option to opt out of you can, which is very interesting to put it mildly and now is just saying that you should not kill the prisoner from as of which is, of course, something that the russians are willing to do. i mean, not kill them. so i, i think we may come, you know,

to us negotiation in the lens of the, of course where the show should present, you know, i think it's wise, we're sure to see that you can, could not join you hoping. and because i don't think it's going to happen anytime soon. and then then yes, who knows? i mean, you know, make, who's what, what happens in 10 years or yeah, and as we mentioned early that, that top officials in germany and france are saying it could take you crane decades to join the year. but that is politicians that space. they probably won't even be empowered by then. so does it look like they actually just don't want to deal with this? they say, well, they're still in office. that's the way to put it is. i mean, you see there was educating the age of a fast track, but then of course, is all these other candidates like being and all that message going and all these other countries and about going to want to join. and i've been waiting for years and some countries like cliche thing has been waiting 22 years to journey hoping

before. i mean, now it took 22 years. so they are going to say, well, why don't you take so much for us? and then the other countries, like i being, as i already saying, do we have to be her sure. you know, the, to join the you with. i mean, you see, but for these counties joining, do you mean those speak, receive them across, you know that the don't you you means getting money from the you. that's what it means for them. and also getting possibility for their workers to immigrate to the that's what it means. but these are an unprecedented times. there aren't any unusual time. so do you think it's possible for you to maybe make an exception for ukraine and somehow speed up its admission into the block? and if so, how would other potential candidates react to that? that's what i just said. the other potential candidates want fact that he will be angry. many people in the main counties like fancy to the in germany would be upset because of course it would mean a flood of cheap labor. and of course,

it also means walk us the use already having to face via a severe backlash from its own sanctions against russia. and if you have to be 3 times more for gas and it, you know, inflation scale gets in germany and. ready inflation of production, goods, not the consumer goods, but the, you know, the industrial goods scale getting already. so i see nobody came during the you any time soon and you know, ok is there with how to end the war. how to convince themselves that they have to make them sessions, which they could have made in 2014, which was the only thing or these problems with respect to the histone population closer, they're going to get back the some 12 inches because he's going to want to be free from the people that want to be free from the kid. that's a basic charity that nobody wants to face in the list. right. thanks to talking to us today. that's on break montera political commentary said thank you. thank you

very much for me you as president george bash in what he dismissed as a slip of the tongue kingdom, the quite unjustified and brutal invasion of iraq. he then quickly declared, he meant to say, you crane not about human rights was said, it was the freudian slip of the century. the result is an absence of checks and balances in russia and the decision of one man to launch a holier justified and brutal invasion of iraq. i mean of ukraine. correct. anyway, i talked about a friday and 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 you'll 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 that was passed in the days after $911.00. and they're still using to this date. that's a 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 bomb countries and you kill a 1000000 people, but you do it as the british and the americans. it's okay, you're, you're a liberator. if you're russia and 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's certainly hated, but not, not to this level. i mean, no one band americans from buying houses in the, you know, and band american food or american trees or american cats or american music. no, none. none of this happened. there was 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 turbulent anti governmental protests, show no signs of letting up in sri lanka, despite a nation wide state of emergency police on lease to tear gas and water cannon as hundreds of students rallied in the countries capital protest is, according for economic reforms on the resignation of the government, a country is facing unprecedented inflation rates, power plant counts and shortages of food and medicine. early this week will and can became the 1st south asian country and decades to default on its foreign debts. the cookie is that it will oppose finland and sweden joining nato unless the 2 nordic countries address the anchorage concerns about their support. what caused terrorist organizations? finland and sweden apply for membership this week, marking in end to their long history of neutrality. for lynch, as

a long border with russia, turkey has demanded the affinity since we didn't deal with kurdish militants allegedly harboured in those nordic states. was the leaders have expressed confidence that encore his objections will not be a roadblock to the membership process. it takes all 13 a 2 members to agree on admitting a new member of his right to blevins has more nato is back in the headlines as the u. s fights for finland, sweden to become the newest members of the alliance. but not everyone is on board with the plan which brings up the importance of nato's democratic system, where everyone gives us a 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 nina lender,

who objects to washington's plan is turkey, as it accuses finland and sweden at ties to groups. it considers terrorists here, these terrorists designation for the courtesy on workers party or p k k. and it's affiliate has also created conflict with the u. s. as washington has supported kurdish rebels in syria. and that's not the only area of contention between the nato allies as a media attacks on turkey kicked off, they reminded the public that the u. s. still hasn't forgotten about when you signed the deal. the purchase rushes 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 banishing turkey from nato anyway, especially after president air dawn bought 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 hunt for new members, turkey's disagreement with washington hasn't even led column as in canada to call

for it to be expelled from the alliance altogether. expelled, took it from nato, that should resolve 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 a guest on polish tv argue that turkey would be better off and in alliance with russia. it's time. turkey from meadow. let it go to russia when it goes to china, let it go to around good written. 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 made the 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 are not limited voting in some key areas. simply no longer makes sense if we want to be able to move faster. so given these call 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 the un as called for increased international efforts to help africa saw how region were an estimated 80000000 people. on the brink of starvation, it's help you in official is also warned the persistent threat of terrorist attacks in the region. it the whole reason, terrorism and insecurity continued 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 terrorists groups as indescribable. but future generations will also pay the price to be $5.00 or a decade. the dispels of land under the sahara desert has been a trap to in violence. the region is time to some of the world's deadliest terrorist groups which continue to stage attacks killing civilians and government soldiers lost the deaths from terrorism. in this whole region accounted for 35 percent of the global total and intentional authorities have international authorities have failed to prevent an escalation in the violence. almost a 1000000 people have been forced to flee that countries a diesel, looming dangers with another. nearly 3000000 internally displaced. we spoke with an associate professor at the university of south africa, who is sure the crisis is actually stemmed from the foreign interference in the region. general he's in going to here to

continue to exist in that region because their engine is out naturally he's doing hardly was of a military stayed time. soon. the arrival along the molly colonizing day and to the very end of the western forces. as league industry got, molly remained unstable, their continent remains on. it was over here in the western countries, those international forces when they entered, then most of them they can come there. we are a large and i and that agenda is not on in terms of the low cost, but there are 2 big the interest of the west am calling to inform them. if i renewed 2 years, there will be in general conflict among the people of the same issue. but my argument is that most of the cases that divisions are free from outside by cannot

forces australia has elected a new prime minister, anthony albany, is the labor party who insists on strengthening the country's military amid rising tensions with china, australia is relations with aging, have fallen to a new low and made cameras so called all military deal with the us and the u. k. the agreement caused for provisions of advanced military equipments including nuclear submarines and response. china has warned australia against moves that could exacerbate tensions in the region, but incoming prime minister el, beneath has doubled down on his assertion. we all know that china has changed. china has changed since last year. it's more aggressive. it's more active in the region, and we need to understand that and respond to it. looked again, vice president of the sense of china and globalization believe the new prime minister will actually bring more pragmatism to australian relations with china. i

personally congratulate mr. our knees on becoming the new prime minister of australia. what he talked about, the tensions with china. i need to be addressed a very accurately china is not an enemy of australia, china values, the trade relations with australian, china has the largest market for all fittings, produce deal australia. so i hope prime minister albany will bring pragmatism and realism to deal with china. australia relations. no country in the world can replace the huge market demand in china for australian commodities and to promote peace for relations between china and australia is in the fundamental interest of the australian people. i hope is the album. these will listen to the voices of the people in australia and do the right thing rather than continue to

sabotage china australian relations. hey, thanks for joining its aaron asi international. we are back at the top of the out with just look up for a muscle on noon. she doesn't beating train. she'll on

a nurse to me as possible. mama could go to somebody to look up. but i put his ashley, uh, this wanted to work with one of the cool position. did you bring out my property for the change in the pro furnished or something like that and then we got that with to have them with

me. ah. hello, welcome towards the park some 30 years after the collapse of the soviet union. russia is once again at coastal, trying to choose the path of development. going west no longer seems an option, especially after the event in your brain. but going east or turning is not that either it has the russia past that point of no return. and where is it likely to go from here? well, to discuss it now joined by an undone, christian, distinguished fellow at the observer research foundation in new delhi is great to talk to you, sir. thank you for living. in one of your interviews, you said that you feel like an indian customer, polite with russia being your 2nd motherland. you spend a lot of time here as a child and as, as an adult, as a professional working here. how do you feel about the current state,

about the current circumstances of the, of the country that you once openly hold your 2nd motherland? well, we have to keep in mind that my 1st motherland is india. and i look at the world through indian eyes. and what is happening today in eurasia, particularly between russia and ukraine, puts india in a very difficult situation. it increases the pressure that india is facing from multiple direction and narrows the space that india has to take decisions. so from that perspective, of course, india is not very happy. however, india at the same time recognizes that it is not a binary question of your either with us or with them.
