9:02 pm
decency and diplomatic communication. it is also a direct provocation, aimed at pulling western countries into direct military hostilities. of course, the same western politicians understand these risks. i must say that in europe, especially in its northern part and there are politicians who are ready to sponsor this madness for the sake of satisfying their own ambitions. but serious countries in the you certainly understand the unacceptability of such scenarios. and we have also heard signs of reasonable assessments of such scenarios from washington. live in our washington has pledged a $700000000.00 miniature aid package to ukraine, including our buns, high precision rocket systems. you officially have said the decision is based on his vows that he will not use the american weapons to fire into russia. weapon systems being provided, the ukrainians have given us assurances that they will not use the systems against targets on russian territory. there is a strong trust fund between ukraine in the united states. u. s. presidential biden says that he's now authorizing it new precision rockets for ukraine,
9:03 pm
capable of hitting targets, 80 kilometers away. that's down to current capacity. is part of a new $700000000.00 weapons package, straight from sam. bible was long, reluctant to provide these longer range weapons, given the risk of escalation. but now bivens launching self right across his own previously defined red line and going all in banking. everything on promises made by ukrainian officials not to use these long range weapons on targets inside russia . i know when people are in the united states are saying where someone in the white house are saying that we might be using them to tech rush up. it looks, we're not planning to attack russia. we're not interested in russian federation. we're not fighting on their territory. it's a bit like giving a teenager the keys to your for a because he promised you that he won't use it to speed by the road to new york times op ed this week that washington does not speak to oust russian president vladimir putin from power or dis parker conflict between russia,
9:04 pm
nato. we do not seek a war between no, so in russia, as much as i disagree with mister potent and find his actions and outrage, the us will not try to bring about his outs the in moscow so long as the u. s, so our allies are not attacked. we will not be directly engaged in this conflict. we do not want to prolong the war just to inflict pain on russia. it's a little late for that though, you think, considering ukraine fighters are you to arm they continue to be. washington's objective. barton says, is to help you crane retake going bass while getting leverage lucian table. but maybe you could just start by showing you grading president. lisky where exactly that table is because apparently he is, officials are having a lot of difficulty finding it and making their way there and writing shot down on the directly joiner. i did not. i was in british prime minister born johnson, like britain often does when washington embarks on its misguided adventures in
9:05 pm
for a country. johnson has been acting on his american counterparts to provide weapons while insisting that there be no legal between ukraine and russia. but parents reluctance to provide long range weapons that dictated by their doubts about the premiums ability to reclaim any territory loss from russia to russia. control, particularly after the loss of donna and they consider that negotiated peace in ukraine. best interests, rather than strategy that rely on the unpredictability of military force. president emanuel macro and chancellor sholtes once again emphasized to president putin that any solution to the war must be negotiated between moscow and kev. frustrated, ukrainian officials have been brow beating france over the slow speed of weapons deliveries. but over the weekend, russian president replied, we're putting orange president, evaluating the home of the risks of flooding. ukraine was western weapon saying
9:06 pm
that it could cause further. it was a change of the situation and aggravate the measure in crisis. you case. also planning on providing ukraine with further military aid, which is negotiating with united states on the supply of american multiple rocket launcher systems, or something agreed on a new miniature package with joe biden, with negotiations continuing between foreign sexual is trust and secretary of state antony lincoln it's another country sending lethal aids. ukraine is germany, chancellor. olaf schultz has pledged why modern air defense systems to the country in the coming weeks, we will also deliver more weapons. for example, the government has decided that we will send the iris t system the most modern system that germany currently possesses. we are thus enabling ukraine to protect an entire major city from russia, airstrikes, and that is also a decision of these government. or the weapon system in question is called the iris
9:07 pm
t. it comes in a form of a short range. it's a missile or ground based defense system. but despite the chancellor's promises, the german defense ministry has said it doesn't actually have the weapons in stock . when asked about the delivery of the promised weapons, the defense ministry spokesman couldn't give a clear answer. that is a question that is ultimately directed at industry because we don't have these systems in use here. that is not a question that i can answer for the german ministry of defense. and because we don't have these systems in our inventory, let's cross live now to current krakowski, the former us air force lieutenant colonel. karen, welcome to our t internationals. great. have you with us. and just like to get your take on this latest planned shipment of weapons from germany to ukraine. how effective do you think the systems will be in changing the situation on the ground? these are defense systems. well, if they were delivered and if they were operable by ukrainian forces in november,
9:08 pm
december, maybe 2023, they might change something. i mean, they are defensive weapons, they are hijacked, but as the chance are said, they, they aren't. they are ending in german inventory at this point. so it could be a case of too little, too late, whenever they eventually get to ukraine. sure, and it could be that, or it could just be a political ploy on the part of the germans to get some of the pressure off from the u. s. and from nato, was that we would, you know, the start of the war. germany was reluctant to send lethal aid to ukraine and obviously a huge change of policy. it is now shipping weapons to ukraine. how much pressure do you believe the country is getting from nate? so on the u. s. to send this sort of a to, to ukraine. well, i think it pretty serious pressure. i recall over a month ago, the biden press conference with the german chancellor and joe biden is
9:09 pm
basically making putting words in to the mouth of the german liter. so i think it's, it's for the americans, it's very important for the u. s. government, it's very important to have germany, the most powerful nation in, in nato to, to be on board. so this is very much a, an illustration of germany being, quote unquote, on board with this. in fact, the weapons themselves may not be delivered for a long time, may never be delivered. and certainly, if you look at it in the context of the great number of the great variety of antique and in process weapons that are being sent into ukraine, you really have to wonder what is, what is the objective here? because that is not how you are a nation to defend itself by giving all your left over in the stuff that you have from you know, 20 years ago. and then things you don't have even on hand. you're promising. it's a mass and we're making it more of a met is an argument to suggest that, you know,
9:10 pm
giving these older weapons around 20 years ago. and, you know, the ukraine troops would know how to use these weapons because a lot of them have come from the, you know, the soviet union, they've been sense abroad. would that not be an effective way of supplying the country? we weaponry oh, in theory, but you can realize the ukrainian command control was destroyed early on in this invasion that they have thought, i guess valiantly in some ways, but as a fighting unit, as a, as a well lead army. the ukrainians have not been able to get their feet underneath this thing. so flowing these weapons in half hazardous, which is half hazard. i mean, you know, you have the political decision and then the delays and coming from different countries, different systems. we've already seen that many of the weapons are coming in to them. now, don't have all the parts that they need or they don't have the proper power
9:11 pm
supplies. the training is not, their manuals aren't provided. so it's just a, it's a dumping ground. really. we're turning it into a dumping ground. we're talking about this very patchwork of weapon systems that ukraine's receiving u. s. has promised some high precision medium range rocket systems to ukraine. and it's always important to stress all the officials in kiev have promised that they wouldn't use them to targets russian territory. but what do you see? how big is the risk of an escalation here with the supply of systems to your crime? i think is the desperation of the cranium, political leadership and their ukranian army. what's left of it grows in the end of the summer in the fall is these weapons start to be delivered? yeah, we have a huge chance. i would say this, if you want to fly commercial, don't fly over ukrainian airspace any time in the next few years. i would not do that. that would not be wise. the other thing is,
9:12 pm
many of these weapons will be sold outside of ukraine. if they're delivered at all, they will not stay in ukraine. they will be used in access to by any number of interested parties around the world or kind of critical skill. former us forces and kind of thank you very much for your take on those weapons supplies to ukraine. thank you. thank you enough. the western ukrainian region of evolved that was supposedly targeted several times by russian forces. these pictures filmed by local, allegedly showed the moments of the strike local authorities. the railway infrastructure was targeted, and the 5 people are reportedly wounded with 3 passenger train delayed. following the strike. meanwhile, miniature operations do continue in the dumbass. r. t correspondent, hallad alger, bori reports and the guns republics a foot line. we all the latest who guns, republic forces with the support of the russian army continue there offensive to
9:13 pm
reclaim the last remaining towns and villages. not yet liberated. lieutenant colonel mosses unit is striking. ukrainian forces in the area of less shannon's concert and ask to prevent them gaining new strongholds, him yama highly and more tv. and as we can see, the fighters are carrying out the necessary calculations to strike only the military targets and positions. how do you do not just look for the main enemy group is now concentrated there and is practically surrounded. they do not want to surrender, so we will help them to make this decision. to do the warriors, the events that have lasted the last 9 years have prompted fighters from the elk your forces of all ages to fight and defend their land. and i was sort of on the highs behind us on the 70 don't. it's river is we're fascist. troops, word located in 94 a 3 in the same way as soviet troops did. then we saw them this year in principal, the sparrow of his to repeats itself. and in the same way to day russian troops are
9:14 pm
fighting against the fascists. it is that there is a certain precise calculations are being made for the destruction of the ukrainian military equipment which the west constantly supplies to ukraine. now russia is forced to fight with ukraine in order to preserve the security of the state. and the region as a whole though they appear, our forces continued to strike. the positions of the armed forces of ukraine enlist as financed and severed in us or cali, eligible re arty from the front line of little guns people's republic stand with ukraine. the country us fight is human rights commissioner for spreading unverified information about suppose it atrocities she alleged were committed by russian troops in the country. the removal comes after numerous western mainstream media outlets have used her stories. the statements of fight ortiz, my august, the of explains day, a nice week sod end month after month. the world over was barraged with stories
9:15 pm
horrific stories of rape and unspeakable acts committed, allegedly by russian forces in ukraine, such acts of violence, raping children little girls, 11 years old, repeated lay in front of their mother's or repeat mapping their mothers and friends . the children with each day more and more credible reports of rape killings, torture are merging. if you soon shoot new hundreds of cases of rape have been recorded, including under age girls, very young children and even a baby. it's just a scary to talk about it. but it's true, it happened, women and girls right now are facing the worst kind of fear and violence. and we know already come from the analysis that have been done. they've been the victims of not just murder and rape, but kidnapping. many of these stories grew to be unbelievable. and that's not
9:16 pm
a figure of speech. people including ukrainian officials and the government stopped taking them seriously. they became an embarrassment. so ludicrous were some of the oh go. the woman behind these stories, nude, nila denise of a who was ironically, ukraine's human rights commissioner was fired a year before her term was officially up the unclear focus of the ombudsman media work on the numerous details of sexual crimes committed in an unnatural way and rape of children in the occupied territories that could not be confirmed by evidence, only harmed ukraine. her stories became so ridiculous that even members of the ukrainian media, which, which itself is in war propaganda mode intervened. 18. i'm journalists together with 51 lawyers and human rights activists, and others penned an open, let cooling on her to dial it down. that the graphic stories published by ha about
9:17 pm
months old douglas being raped with a variety of objects. caroll up the people that this was a productive or, you know, decent sexual crimes during the war or a tragedy of families. a difficult and traumatic topic. not a topic for publications. in the spirit of the scandalous chronicle. we are forced to trust the official information that comes from officials in a state of martial law a priori. we do not have the opportunity to verify it from other sources. in this way, we are spreading messages from the commissioner for human rights, in fact, taking them on faith as centrally. they asked that the stick to things that actually happened. all of these stories can be tracked back to denisa and that seem most specifically the social media posts made by them. and that's where all the trailed stop, almost all of her raped claims. se ukrainian journalists are without evidence or witnesses, despite her own less than honest approach. denise, her has been
9:18 pm
a vocal proponent for an international criminal tribunal to apparently bring russian troops to justice for things that she had lie. the bath, i think we should look at yugoslavia and rolanda. these are the examples that we all know about. there is the un international court of justice and the international criminal court. we need to push for the creation of a special tribunal laterally. the niece of a has been blind to verify reports and footage of ukrainian troops murdering, torturing and mutilating brushing prisoners of war and even ukrainian civilians deemed to be pro russia. they don't get the human rights apparently, but these telling isn't it. when your own politicians who are bent themselves on making the russian seem as terrible as possible, that they fight for being simply to outrageous. oh,
9:19 pm
moving on now, according to the un secretary general. and so, no good terrorists, the unfolding global few crises, cannot be solved without supplies from russia and ukraine. as warning comes amid further delays of vital shipments to other regions including africa. we need quick and decisive action to ensure a steady flow of food and energy in open markets by lifting export restrictions, allocating surpluses and reserves to those who need them, and addressing food price increases to com. market volatility at the moment we are seeing is massive. rising food insecurity in africa, we've heard now from the african union, the head of the union saying that, you know, there is a catastrophic situation that could enfold across many countries, particularly on the continent. he said that they're already there. 17000000 people in food insecurity in just 3 countries, including in ethiopia. and he says that for him, it is clear what is causing this issue at the moment. our countries are very concerned about the side effects of the disruption caused by the payment system
9:20 pm
being blocked by swift over sanctions. when the swift system is interrupted, it means that even if products are available, the payment becomes difficult or impossible. when you look at the figures across the world, it's even starker than that some $323000000.00 people are said to be marching towards food insecurity at the current time. so was the western reactions from all this. we know that the european union is very clear that it believes that the problems have been caused by blockades of ports on the black sea. it says that russia is doing that. russia is essentially terrorizing or black mailing people when it comes to issues around food at the current present. ursula vandalay and is saying that, you know, it's those blockades which are the problem. and the fact that russia is apparently, she says, putting mines in the ukraine in whitfield. russia is not only blocking the export of export of ukrainian wheat. it is bombarding warehouses where wheat
9:21 pm
is stored deliberately. of course, you know that they are also mining the fields where a ukraine could have the next harvest of corn. and i want to be very clear. we have no sanctions and food and agricultural products, no sanctions on that. some people said, how is it possible for russia to put mines in fields when it happened, already managed to get at that point in ukraine? so there's a question about how that is happening. and of course, as russia is increasing its territorial gains, why would it also want to increase territorial gains in fields that have mines in truly, that would be a danger for it. soldiers to we have is this dire situation a dire global situation here? surely, it's within everyone's interests to lift some of these sanctions and get this food out. well, that's what russia has been calling for. it says if you do that, we will be able to end some of these blockades. but we know already that there are for the european union to introduce another round of sanctions present. so
9:22 pm
landscape quain addressing european leaders early this week said we need a severance package of sanctions that could possibly include russian gas and, and that could be even more catastrophic. the reality is what needs to happen is for the west will ukraine and russia to get around the table and make an agreement to allow the shipments of grain and also fertilizer to, to be able to leave those ports in the black sea african affairs on a list lauren's freeman thought the west a little to help african countries to avoid the farming. instead, focusing on blaming russia. hunger existed before either cove it or the russian ukraine conflict. but the primary cause for the shortage of food in africa and hunger is the lack of development. and this has been going on for decades. and western institutions, europe, united states, have done nothing to actually mediate hunger. the last has been totally
9:23 pm
hypocritical, millions and millions and millions of people going hungry and dying in africa. the united states in europe turned back on africa because they will develop the user hypocritical statement. blaming the food shortage on russia is false. and as i say, hypocritical good, it doesn't tell the truth. about one after the decades of the west is going to where people are africa direct u. s. mason. let's, as we are showing companies concerned about until russian sanctions affecting product exports. u. s. officials highlights the russian grain. unfertilized exports on directly sanctioned, but companies are worried that the rest of the sections list might affect their exports. russia and ukraine account for nearly a 3rd of global wheat supplies. and it's sort of director of reactionary times. julio rivera believes that us officials,
9:24 pm
after lift sanctions notes for alleviate the global food crisis. it doesn't make a lot of sense. the sanctions were so wide spread, you know, as far as our why didn't sweeping that it makes it difficult for american companies to know whether or not they're going to be in violation of those things and should they do business with russia? so i think that's a lot of the confusion there are, was set there by the united states government when they, and the governments around the world when they actually impose a lot of these things. and i think that they're going to have to clarify or either start to lift some of the sanctions. i mean, the rest of the world needs to eat. i mean that fertilizer that we, that core and all those things are very vital to the world. so we're gonna have to figure out a new way to get around. a lot of these impose sanctions. this become almost a livable in the united states. i mean, the cost of living is so high. there's so many americans living from check to check . they have to make a decision as to whether they're going to put gas in their car or whether they're going to put food on their table. and that's unfortunately something that a lot of americans are facing now. with
9:25 pm
a tie one now where the president has announced plans to deploy u. s. national guard units on the island. the official also urged american lawmakers to prefer the security deals with high pay, and it comes with increasing chinese military activity around taiwan, which beijing does not recognize as an independent country. the u. s. department of defense has now pro, actively planning cooperation between the us national guard and ty, ones defense forces. we look forward to closer and deeper taiwan us cooperation on matters of regional security. however, despite the calls from ty pe, the us recently turn down, ty, ones request to join a key regional trade organization in pacific economic framework. while china has conducted the largest military sizes so far this year in the areas and in $35.00 jet into ty, ones, s, space, chinese for ministry as that it could use force against what it calls us back separatists on the island. recently the united states has
9:26 pm
frequently made moves on the taiwan issue saying one thing and doing another instigating support for taiwan independence forces which will push taiwan into a dangerous situation. professor benjamin charles says the u. s. actions could be seen as encouraging a possible proxy war between china and taiwan. you would be surprised if the u. s. appeal is promised to fully protect high one given that the u. s. has already lost is credibility in defending is friends of many countries, especially when those friends have lost strategic value to the us. we're still with sometimes to us these each in the interest to support a prolong proxy war to we can in the pony. so a press, the war is still possible, especially to the local help of korea and japan and perhaps australia as well. iran has accused the u. s. of destroying world trade and undermining international
9:27 pm
relations. as washington has received the cargo from an iranian oil time because it was seized on the greek coast, back in april by athens. lucille georgia had in the united states is the biggest destroyer of free trade. it is the biggest destroyer of global economic rules for finance, investment and international trade. the u. s. uses the dollar as a weapon and turns it into a tool to interfere in every aspect of the global economy that jose, what the u. s. has done is wreaking havoc to world relations when in response to that seizure of the radiant tank, it's aaron sees to greek flags, oil tankers last friday in the persian gulf and separate statements by the 4 ministries, greece, germany, and france, criticized the seizure of the time is by iran calling it's a violation of international regulations. the united states joined them in accusing iran of posing threats to mar times stability. barrens continued harassment of vessels and interference with navigational rights and freedoms are a threat to maritime security and the global economy. leah,
9:28 pm
we heard from professor said mohammed mirandi from the university of hereon, who claims at western countries are the ones responsible in the global energy crisis. it is extraordinary that the united states on the one has created a major global economic crisis by not only sanctioning iranian oil and gas, but also been as where the oil and gas and now russian oil and gas. and everyone is wondering why is the global economy in such a dangerous situation. and now, after doing all that, the united states carries out theft. it carries out an act of piracy, in order to hurt iran. but what it is doing in reality is it's forcing the price of oil to go up. the iranians benefit from this situation. the iranians retaliated that further benefits the situation, the more instability there is,
9:29 pm
the higher the price of oil and the worse it is for the u. s. and the u economies. so they're the ones responsible for pushing up the price of oil and gas because of all the sanctions that the place on different countries. and for the piracy that they can carry out, your audience are only seizing these tankers in order to prevent the europeans and americans from carrying out further acts of test. let's wrap a full 30. am moscow time to head over to the website for more on any of those stories. and if not, i'll be back again at the top of the hour with another one down. the latest. thank you. in less than 3 months, the west ukraine narrative has been turned on and said, green is not waiting, it's steadily losing. the west is not unified. in fact, divisions are widely, the russian economy is weathering,
9:30 pm
massive sanctions. western economies are in trouble. going 1st you know, there was no program when i left i kind of and all of us at life, esther hate kind of stumbled our way through it. and then we can take the lessons that we've learned from that and shrink the time frame down. so there's less was less wandering in the wilderness, so to speak. when i was in the move in the last 2 years, before i left, i was struggling with do i want to leave? i like, pardon me, one to leave. the other part has been battle with us. if i leave, i had enough to fall back on. i have that deposit. do i have nobody to go to? you know me because i don't live around last 7 years. i have nothing. sometimes it's hard. if they've got a swastika tattooed on their neck, it's hard for them, but just to say, i don't do that anymore. it's kind of a long process. it's not like you just leave it one day and you're like, wow, that's over.
