ah ah, he explores the bunkers, the other style deal plants where women, if i, to sheltered with their children during the siege, it's puzzling at best as to why they weren't allowed to surrender. and to get the kids to safety earlier. the west urges ukraine to fight to the end. one voice stands out, henry kissinger says ukraine should become a bridge between europe and russia in the restricted sugar exports. it fits surging prices up to western sanctions against russia to take that soul on global food market and deep divisions again, great for us over good controls, as president biden calls for soft stance against the powerful gone lobby. that's

after mass shooting as an elementary school in texas when 19 children with moscow to the world. this is austin international. i'm peter scott. it's great to have you with us. russia is opening a humanitarian car door for foreign vessels from the ports of matter. you pull this morning that's after the cities waters were cleared of mines. now de mining works are also in progress of the territory of the as of stall steel plants, which is now under the full control of the joint bush and undergraduates forces after the final ukrainian soldiers that surrendered last week, there was in dpr captivity will face trial that's according to local officials with the court proceedings to be prepared the moment. while we continue to bring you details of what life in as of style was like during the siege. with ortiz, e good is done of exploring the areas where women fights is for their children. this is the room where we found weapons, guns, equipment, well, arm of,

et cetera. and this bunker here used to show to women, look his. there are beauty products over here over here as well. but judging by the amount of well military paraphernalia that we found, there were no civilians. in fact, in the back of this room, there's a rocket launcher. so not only did they live here, they also fought here. there's children's clothes, there's toys and more children's clothes. well, bit down this room, there's still more of their clothes hanging on the rope after they washed these big reserve was they still have water in them. and well, here's how they slept. for example, there's another little nook over there with beds more beds here, mattresses. it's obvious that women who used to live here some of them had children

and it's puzzling at best as to why they weren't allowed to surrender. and to get their kids to safety earlier. meanwhile, the world's richest and most powerful continued to the ghost discuss the fate of ukraine and the devil's economic forum. with a dominating sentiment, the ukrainians must fight to the end. i am totally committed as one person to seeing you crane to the end with a when not basically resolving in some type of a treaty. i don't think that is where we are and where we should be. we are very happy to have them a fight. our fight, you train must win this war. over the only western voice coming in sharp contrast was the speech of a prominent u. s. foreign policy veteran, henry kissinger. he said the ukraine should become a neutral country, and this shall be a goal for the west. and that's exactly what rush has been demanding all along. the

id love would be if you create could be closer to a state is in between a new era. indeed, a neutral bridge would serve to bring russian europe into closer cooperation through an alliance that would also help the european union and russia. better compete against both beijing and washington. which could also help explain why the united states is constantly interfering in the country on the other side of the planet. to ensure that this bridge never gets built in calling for urgent piece in ukraine, kissinger could very well be drawn on his own professional experience. and regress you see the terms of the vietnam war cease fire, which kissinger negotiated on president nixon's behalf, could very well been reached for years earlier,

with tens of thousands more lives saved since the deal, and ultimately changed very little within that time frame. so how does kissinger suggest revolving the territorial speech between russia and ukraine? a b, i should say to the status quo ante in this case means that control over crimea, who hans and on that would be restored to russia is almost certainly not what the west and ukraine want to hear. but kissinger, as he always does, is speaking from the perspective of foreign policy realist seeking tangible results in favor of peace and not as the kind of idea law that tends to dominate the western foreign policy establishment these days. a journalist and form at c,

i a analysts, john kieriyaki, believe the faith of ukraine will be primarily decided in washington and not from the battlefield. i've always been troubled by things like the davos forum or the builder of forum, or the shangri la forum. it's always the world's richest and most powerful people hobnobbing with the world's most important politicians to take the truth. i think it's, i think it's a dangerous phenomenon because seeds are planted by the ceo's of the biggest frustrations of defense contractors in the lines of policy makers. americans, british nato, european union, australia, and i just think that it's a bad mix. i think that these, these worlds should remain separate and independent of one another. yet this is a very popular position to take in the united states that the war should go on until the last ukrainian. well, the reason that that, that's

a popular position is actually very simple. almost all of the money that congress is appropriating for the war in ukraine goes directly to us, defense manufacturers. it doesn't go to the ukrainian people, it doesn't go to the ukrainian government, it goes to the biggest defense companies. eventually the u. s. government's policy is going to have to be to support the uminski courts because that's the only way that we can bring this conflict to an end. and to try to minimize the loss of life . so be, as president, has expressed his regrets about how the form has turned into what he called a mouth piece of the west. and he's under which it claims the only dominating issue is ukraine on descent is not accepted. good creek training issue dominate so much over all other topics that the forum is basically just a huge support for ukraine. diverse used to be

a place where you could hear different things, different opinions, crime, a person who changing and angler merkel came here at the same time. we were now, it's become an absolutely and exclusively western oriented place. you can discuss something only within the given framework, but the equivalent of the pressing issue discussed our doubles is the possible end of globalization. the completes in ukraine and western sanctions against which i have exacerbates the economic troubles created by the global pandemic. and of hinted at how fragile the global economy potentially is. one of the main consequences of the globalization is the decline of production frampton arise in food protectionism. several countries have already been their food exports to maintain stability on domestic markets. malaysia, for example, is one of the latest to announce it will banish chicken exports. russia, the biggest we takes porter, put an embargo on its grain after the west imposed it's devastating sanctions. the indian authorities also banned wheat exports in the middle of this month. and on

monday it said they would restrict sugar exports too. we asked the director of the geopolitical economy research group read. you could decide about the food situation in india as the country with the 2nd biggest population in the world could be one of the most vulnerable food production in india is in many of the places is already being affected. the 2nd thing is that for the last many decades, as india has become more and more neo liberal, it has actually caused a great erosion in small holder agriculture. and that has, that is one of the key reasons why malnutrition, as in these because they used to be a very large number of people who are basically able to produce what they consume. india is already even before 2022. india was already at the bottom of the medium is not the absolute bottom, but very near the bottom of the me, gamers in terms of food security, the adequacy of food provision in india. so this is a, so at one level, you know, whereas the u. s. and other countries are criticizing. in fact,

you should be praising in the other factors and you should have done this a long time ago. basically, what you have to realize is the rest that is waging a war against russia in which ukraine is the proxy. as so many people have said, the u. s. wants to fight russia till the last few gradient. it is, the u. s. is war, the u. s. is waging this war, unmindful of the consequences for its own population, which is already suffering. and of course, amid all this, people are completely forgetting about so many countries. in the 3rd world, that neo liberal policies have made reliant on food imports. and they are going to take the brunt off all of this. and i think really watch or for is for all countries to sit down and manage food supply and some equitable fashion. but given the way the united states is great, i don't see happening. also speaking of the devil's forum, australia's

e commissioner has called for re calibration of human rights, particularly the freedom of speech or words hubspot and go a lot more not later in the program. hungry has declared a war time state of emergency over the conflicts in ukraine, which will allow the government to bypass parliament with any decrees. that's as the you continues to pressure budapest to over russian oil embargo law. ah, we see the war and the sanctions from brussels have lead to massive economic upheaval and drastic price increases that all the world is on the brink of an economic crisis. hungary must stay out of this war and protect the financial security of families more. this requires room for maneuver in the ability to act immediately. the government is exercising its right under the constitution to declare war time, state of emergency from midnight to night. it wasn't. this will allow the government to respond immediately and protect hungary and hungarian families by any means possible. look, you've got what the over the prime minister's order comes amid a heated debates on

a possible russian oil embargo with a majority of e. u members have declared that they are ready to go without wishing energy on re opposes a bond with victor alban saying no sanctions can be discussed as a consensus in europe hasn't been reached. executive vice president of the re sent a think tank o rasmussen. believe don't, gary prime minister is trying to confront the repercussions of the energy crisis. and thus, despite all the tensions within europe, prime minister, orbital, and see what's going on. so she sees the office to the one we've got a potential global credit that's happening. we already know that we've got a european energy crisis. you've had to fight off the you from and stand up for hungering needs and requirements, and there people will, he'd be still going to get additional pressure from europe. absolutely. but do i believe he's acting in the best interest of hungering?

absolutely. europe in general has is in the process of committing economic suicide . i think gorb and see that. and i think he's trying to prevent that and to mitigate the impacts of, of the downfall on europe. and it's going to affect the hungarian economy somehow. but i think he's trying to mitigate the input, the negative implications of that. meanwhile, the head of the european commission has made a u turn, while talking about russian oil been seen to move would not be safe for the economy her to live on. the line has previously insisted on energy functions against russia, but also an oil embargo would only benefits president putin. so today we will propose to ban all russian oil from europe. this will be if we would completely cut immediately as of today of the oil. he might be able to

take the oil that he does not sell to the european union to the world's market, where the prices will increase and sell it for more. the west is getting more desperate. i think they see russia winning this war in eastern ukraine. so far, the economic sanctions against russia have not hurt russia. in fact, the rubel is now record highs. meanwhile, it seems like the sanctions of backfired on the west. i don't see how your can refuse russian oil. i mean, maybe they could try to be less dependent on it, but the fact is it's the closest oil supply. so this is an insane move by europe if they do this. and i think a lot of leaders there in the population know it. i think they know that their political future is probably on the line, but again, whether they will follow what they know is are they also que 19 children. i've been killed at a massive shooting as an elementary school in texas. officers,

i believe 2 shots on killed the suspects. 18 year old salvador ramos isn't, has, once again highlighted the deep divisions in the country over gun controls with president biden, calling for a tough a stance against a powerful gun lobby. as in asia, we have dash win garage name, we're going to stand up to the gun lobby. when in god's name, we do, we all know our gut needs to be done and don't tell me. we can't have an impact on this current each. from what we understand, the shooter is identified as an 18 year old male. it's a ledge that he shot his own grandmother who was in critical condition before then fleeing the home and going from there to the school, opening fire on the. ready school children at a nearby elementary school. now this is bringing shock throughout the country. people are utterly horrified by these events. what are we doing? what are we doing?

our kids are living in fear every single time they set foot in the classroom because i think they're going to be next. what are we doing now back up the scene in texas. we understand that there is a local recreational facility where the family members of school children are able to be reunited with their surviving children. and we also understand their impromptu medical services being set up in the area to make sure that those who suffered gunshot wounds and other injuries are treated. this is a very serious situation. law enforcement is on the scene. at this point, the country is trying to find out what the possible motive could be. now this comes on the heels of a recent mass shooting that took place in a buffalo supermarket where a shooter opened fire targeting people because of their race. and it's also important to note that it is only may the end of may. and so far this year in the

united states, there had been $212.00 mass shooting incidents that have already taken place this year. so people are looking at the united states, they're continuously a conversation about how to deal with these ongoing shooting. it's particularly hard to getting when the victims are children. you know, this was an elementary school. ready that was targeted many heartbreaking remarks coming out of people. many shocked words from local officials and observers, parents, community members, quite a heartbreaking incident. and we expect that in the aftermath of that, we will see new renewed debate regarding the issue of gun control and united states to terror expert and legal analysts. jennifer breeding believes the divisive states of us politics in recent years means there'll be no end to such tragic incidents. most americans are asking why the, why the question, why does has to become incredibly partisan and political immediately rather than warning such a tragic and completely horrific loss. i mean, of course, we're looking at the reigning ruling party in america, the left wing party,

which immediately goes to political divisive speech and the gun lobby. rather than talking about the many issues that seem to be played in this country, namely mental issues, mental instability, and not just from covet, 19 pandemic from frank, but from the divisiveness from mainstream media sources in our country. i mean, radical divisiveness from our current political leadership throughout this country as we know. and as we've seen, not just from 2016, 2017. there have been mass rick murdering incidence in america. this continues to be politicized. and that is why that is why there aren't going to be really passed forward to stop in these kinds of ass australia. first, a safety commissioner has said that the freedom of speech among other human rights should be recalibrated. we are finding ourselves in a place where we're, we have increasing polarization everywhere and everything feels binary when it

doesn't need to be. so i think we're going to have to think about a recalibration of a whole range of human rights that are playing out online. you know from freedom of speech to the freedom to you know, to be free from on online violence or the right of data protection to the right to child dignity them big us working on a legit call to tampa with freedom of speech, much strong backlash on social media since the so called re calibration a pitts from an attempt to tighten censorship. it's either free or it isn't. there is nothing to hard to figure out about this. they want to change definitions of words, so we don't know what they mean any longer and they can do as they like. the right to be free from online violence already exists. you block the person or turn off your computer or scroll past or just close your eyes. we don't need that to be recalibrated. i'd like to recalibrate how much influence these people have over my

rights though? laughing out loud world economic forum, forgot to disable comments on just one of their tweets, and i pointed out, well now i'm blocked. actually, she was rather ambiguous in the terminology. i mean, she spoke about re calibration of human rights of freedom of speech, of online violence, but she didn't go very much into what exactly this entails and what does it mean. but regardless of what she did mean, there was a clear backlash against her comments. we saw on twitter, many people consider these comments as being an infringement or an road ching on their human rights on their freedoms. if such a step is taken as she advise, i think this will lead to actually even more polarization, because it will be perceived within the framework of an infringement of the human rights to cancel out or to a place, an embargo on alternative sources of information. whether it's in different issues

of the world in different conflict, it is, i think leaning towards one particular narrative and demonizing the other narrative . and i think many different when it woodson countries are guilty of the same mistake and over to pakistan. now whether government has banned or rally planned by the ousted prime minister in rank con, he demanded early elections. authorities in as lum about foot road blocks ahead of the rally. the government said the event should not go ahead and threatened to arrest protesters who quotes read chaos. the decision came after policeman was killed during rates on the homes of con. the 4th is, and they resulted in more than $400.00 arrests, allegedly made to prevent the protests in the country's capital. they 1st raised the issue of a foreign conspiracy than the assassination plot. and now they are trying to spread and are key in the garb of a march. he said this march is going to be bloody. they had already raised civil

disobedience slogans, and attacked institutions. they will be stopped as they wanted to attack the federation from one province. all their braves have now gathered in the shower and i warned them to behave. it was supposed to have been the latest in a series of demonstrations in different cities organized by the former pm. so this time, your forces accused con, of inciting a civil war like situation and threatened him with arrest. strategic on the list on author in charge of cruel, explains iran cons motivation that why the government wants to address him. and none of them are real freedom from the school. he has given people a different angle in part, but it's on the policy by telling them that he wants to live on a life life independent of external influences. and that he wants to live with respect and this is what is resonated with a lot of people. this is the reason why he decided eventually to march on. it's not

about the biggest problem that the new government is facing, is lack of credibility. the sitting prime minister siobhan city and other allies in the coalition partner did afraid possibly that if you're on han does manage to bring in tons of thousands of people from about that may create an on control situation for them. and then they have to then given to the similar demand by him not hard, and that is a date for the early election. and finally, us africa mind is reportedly be deploying troops to somalia, with washington's recent approval. it's going to drone strikes in the country, but despite the reinforcement of america's military presence, there's been little progress in improving security. the details of washington's increased attention towards africa is ortiz policy, somalia, one of the poorest countries in sub saharan africa has become the major focus of

american military expansion on the continent. washington say it's by growing it's us africa command africa. it will protect african we're aligning our global counter terrorism efforts with where the threat to americans is most acute. i'll ship bob in somalia simply has to be among our highest priorities on that school. but america's military mission. so it says is not so military after voice. this is a repositioning of forces that are already in the area to continue and advise and assist and training mission. with the purpose of enabling a more effective fight against al chabarise. for com was established in 2007 and from the start was not really welcomed on the continent. we've got a big image problem down there. public opinion is really against getting into bed with the u. s. they just don't trust the u. s. and things haven't really changed. people on the continent still don't like america's presence,

wasn't polluted job and the americans are back because they see an advantage to take over the remaining resources and continue to enrich themselves hard. we have little to no chance of getting help to stop them from taking our resources, what they are posing as if they are helping us. but they have their own agenda and the benefits they get in return. they are benefiting from whatever they are doing in africa. there is something they want pressure that all find them intimidating until they tried to manipulate our resources and what we have and what we've fought so hard to gain in their tied to take it as their own. and below to get away from us was we worked really hard to be where we are. good we, i mean what the luck when it all, unless your presence is not helping as much as you can see, many people are suffering in prices for everything. are increasing again, we are still facing a high unemployment rate for me, their presence is not helping me. they might come to africa with an idea to help,

but they are not helping. and i don't see any difference for changing. but still, the sad truth is there is no changes and people are suffering and facing a lot of little trees. but it's not surprising that africans, on jumping up and down civilian casualties from american air strikes have steadily climbed as have violations of international law. amnesty international says american operations in the east african nation of somalia have killed civilians despite africans denials. this 1st regular, public report acknowledging the it states, africa commands, role in civilian casualties as a welcome glimmer of transparency in more than a decade of deadly military operations. that until now have been shrouded in secrecy, and then is the lack of assistance for west africa and the south. so the united states is not leading there by any means, but we're trying to support our partners. our contributions are pretty small,

some training, some equipping, helping with some logistics, helping with some intelligence. and some i us are. that's what we're doing there to help our partners. the u. s. is not in the lead in west africa. what small america has proven it's unable to fight terrorism on the continent. despite all of our best efforts, this terrorism continues to spread. the spread of terrorism has continued relatively unabated, not to forget the history of american military presence elsewhere in the world. like in the middle east, for example, where anti american sentiment runs high. and u. s. operations had devastated countries. it's really no surprise then that africa isn't beating it's drums at the latest us endeavors. do you feel free to go to our website r t dot com for more stories and in depth analysis? mine is peter scott and thank you for watching. ah, ah

ah ah ah

ah no, no, no. it shows the wrong a becomes the african and engagement. it was betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for the common ground. ah, ah. hello and welcome to crossed out. were all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle . while the west maintains its anti russia rhetoric and backed up with evermore

sanctions, the position of official kid is not so clear when addressing the davos crowd do crane's zalinski called for negotiations. one of his chief negotiators refuted this . so where does he have stand with cross talking official care, i'm joined by my guess, margaret kimberly in new york. she's executive editor of black agenda report in paris. we have rachel mars and she is a political columnist, strategist and talk show host. and in hong kong we have angelo to the all know, he is a political in financial analysts or across stock rules in effect, that means he can jump in any time he want. and i always appreciate i, let's go to our guest in hong kong 1st here. i mentioned day davos in my introduction, zalinski talking about out there has to be negotiations. also. his chief negotiate refuted that immediately after the ukrainian president said, henry kissinger summoned.
