a with an idea where as you know, that way, if you don't mind, ah, 9 civilians are killed and the done yes. can people's republic as a ukraine launches dozens of missiles at the area, according to local authorities, or he looks at who is fighting on the creamy inside. or the storm is what they call themselves the death tale and that they were trained by western instructors who fought with them. machine guns, equipment, food, everything they hunted was and bolted from the west of the conflict. grimes on a number of western media and politicians move away from their previous key of will when stance to questioning whether there will be a victory for ukraine at all. we discuss why the panel of guess over thing over here is essentially a change to a gradual but painful recognition of what's actually going on over there. the media

in the west has refused to look at. now they are caught by surprise. policy of interventionism and disrespect to the mexican president lambs, us decision not to invite venezuela, cuba and nicaragua, to a summit, supposed to improve unity in the region and refuses to show up himself with broadcasting. lot of direct from our studios and multiple, this is our to international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. are now 9 people have been killed and 18 injured on monday as the done yet people's republic continues to come under heavy shelling. local authorities claim that ukrainian forces fired 20 missiles at the country's capital alone. as intensive fighting continues in the east of lucon republic, several residential buildings have been severely damaged in the western city of new business. ganske authorities say 3 people were killed and more than 30 injured in

shelling by ukrainian forces during the week. meanwhile, russia and gone scar carrying out a clearing operation in the crucial settlement of commerce. java with the aim of cutting off keowee supplies to its troops in lucy chance one of the cranes left strongholds in the republic parties. it was done. i've spoke to one of the russian fighters there about exactly who is fighting with ukrainian troops or miss vomas' order. they called themselves the desk of italian revenue. they had death battalion stripes, and they held on their former criminals and those who run away from the battlefield . they were well trained and equipped and fight with guerrilla tactics. we captured a major. he said that they were trained by western instructors who fought with them . machine guns, equipment, food, everything they had was imported from the west. they were trying hard for 2 or 3. mumbles, the major was high on belgium made pills. it took him 3 days to recover from them on these pills. all a person does his fight. as he does not want to eat or sleep,

the major said that one of the fighters on the pills had been shot 3 times, but he still continued to fight ukrainian. president vladimir lensky has claimed that care of being pushed towards unfavourable agreements with russia. stressing that the world is tiring of the conflict is comes as some western media outlets seemed to be edging away from their previous victory for care of at all costs. now, while questioning the ultimate goals which ukraine wants to achieve. if kia van moscow are headed for a multi year or even multi decade frozen conflict, we will need to push ukraine towards its most realistic rather than its most ambitious military strategy. morale among the ukrainian troops is reportedly suffering. russian command is a concentrating massive firepower on ukrainian positions. western media also stresses that the conflict has left the u. s, looking hawkish. that's as russian troops advance on the front lines. something

that the media has been avoiding, reporting for quite some time and confidence among ukrainian soldiers declines earlier. i discussed the change of narrative with investigative journalist edwards all libertarian national committee, vice chair ivan, for i and former u. s. air force lieutenant colonel. karen krakowski, the media in the west has refused to look at facts, fax, historically, prior to the invasion. we've used to look at facts about the 2014 activities. now they're caught by surprise when they can no longer ignore the facts. over thing over here is essentially a change from one media perspective or one media narrative, which was mostly based on, i would say wishful thinking to a gradual but painful recognition of you know, what's actually going on over there. it is impossible for me to believe that the u . s. media actually believes that ukraine has a real military chance for the taking leave from the district. i mean,

the ukranian army isn't towers and the boss. no. the elements have been trying to cover this up because it wasn't favorable. they are reporting. what's the truth now . they're reporting that the russians are advancing. maybe that are you trying to paper russians, us now this, this over aggressive fully. but the truth of the matter is, the russians are finally broken, the back of ukrainian army. and you can sit on the list is also made some other rare comments. recently admitting that $2500.00 ukraine fighters did actually surrender at the, as i saw plants last month in variable, and that ukraine is losing up to about $100.00 soldiers per day. what do you think about the timing of these admissions? and what could they tell us about kids, current stance in the conflict? i think that he's beginning to be forced to reveal the facts that the facts that ukrainians themselves are already quite aware of. i think that he's disconnected from the people of ukraine and you know, there are 6000000 ukrainian refugees outside of the country. you have left already

and must have been poland, some in germany. this situation is dire and it is desperate. i think the biggest issue reform is once the other becoming this, this here are in the media as a celebrity, you know, has, as this figure, standing up again say a paper paper. and my big question is, what does what zelinski go to do when ukraine negotiating a settlement to some can no longer exist. he will have a country anymore to try to people and ask for money from others or welfare for an enemy situation. it's not gonna work out and it's not just the media narrative that is undergoing radical change. public interest in the coverage of the conflict has some down shifts as well, since people are no longer as absorbed with coverage of the war in ukraine. that's our cheese racial. marston comments. let's face it. we live in an age of increasingly short attention. found new cycles are the immediate gratification of

social networks and flash in the ban. friends have rewired a lot of brains to turn away from anything that requires long term focus and the conflict ukraine is really no exception if it does any indication now, over 100 days into this fiasco, social media attention has decreased from a high of a 109000000 weekly interactions on you, pretty public, to just 4800000 worldwide at last count. an online news coverage is followed a similar downward trajectory, an actual point. so despite washington, shoveling billions of dollars out the door of taxpayer funds to ukraine. public opinion has always shaped policy and the course of conflicts, and has greece, the get skids for war or for peace. our off for the world moto, good 5, or that warm neza calling to you to the people of the united states. duncan hughes to this war. otherwise we are risking and never any more. don't get used to our

pain as a guide that them put some zalinski strongest. western cheerleaders. donahoe at the outset, are now starting to change their today as the conflict. brian's on a mid growing doubts over ukraine's ability to prevail. french president mellor in the hall, who was previously judy by zalinski, suggesting that ukraine may need to concede territories and the conflict is now emphasizing that russia must not be humiliated. so that the day the fighting stops, we can build a road out through diplomatic channels. she clearly could not care less. 2 the interest of the average european citizen currently helping to fund this conflict. zelinski is hypercritical. approach to his closest and most generous allies in the world has become this monday, regulation speaker of hungary, or lit last look. care statements by the president of ukraine are sometimes strange

. usually those who need help ask for it politely, persistently, but ask not demand or threaten. one usually threatens enemies, not those they want to have as france. there is a personal mental problem here. the worst case scenario for zalinski is to get bogged down in the conflict. well, has one high supporters shift their priorities and attention elsewhere, browbeating and bullying? his is fancy paying attention beyond their tolerance is probably not the most effective way to secure the best and fastest possible outcome of p and long term stability for the ukranian people. pakistan is looking for alternative ways to carry out financial transactions with russia in mid western sanctions. that's according to the countries ambassador to moscow with the majority of the world refusing to join the west's campaign. earlier my colleague unit o'neil discussed the situation with mohammed afar. java, the director general of the pakistan house international think tech,

the euro centric and the us centric and the west centric policies. more or less has been creating lot of trouble for the developing countries. for only one mattered, i think the sanctioned the gym has paralyzed. many economies, the new world order i would say also can be categorized in terms of how each one country or set of countries stand up to one narrative. the construct that the only the rest and way to deal with any issue is correct. one, a large majority of countries. if you look at them, you will find out that it is only a matter of opportunity when you ask them about the issue. they will speak up, he's got china, india, pakistan saying, well, hold on you're, you're not, you're not talking for us as well. we want to make our own decisions there. and i think it has that be more to the forefront of western leaders mine since the start

of the ukraine conflict. i think it came later to be honest because they were under the perception or view that when they will say that this is the reward will make the decision to of the western work in meaning. this didn't happen because the countries made their own minds office. they looked at their own national interests, you know, a meal and the respectively made the decisions when the, during the voting boss wanting. i think also there is a political fantasy on the part of the western powers that they considered that they can get away with whatever they want to do with any developing country. what example, all those was previous wars are, you know, imposed on other countries, had shown a very bad result, unpopular decision making, even at their home. is it in the process of occurring western dominance coming to to a close process has started. i mean, they will never accept this a political defeat that they accept at. okay. we failed in all these countries. we

could not maintain bees, we loss trillions of dollars. and we had to leave in some kind of, you know, submission to the countries and that in of conason included. can you give us a sense of how the east now sees the west has not changed since the conflict again? where east has a one comparison that make, for example, i can give you an assessment. these say that all right, all this human rights, all this destruction, this show and propagate whatever happened the ukraine. but what did on remember that any one of them can come out. they came out after very many hundreds of thousands of people could millions refugees in iraq, for example. or we were wrong at the time. and then they went to syria. they had a problem, then they went to libya. so they are looking at somebody that the rest should have stood there when they have initiated all the unit was, but they refused to accept the responsibility. it is impossible that the united

states and other countries desirous to abandon oxen, those shall relationship in the past 20 years, going to a very positive trajectory. and we are of the opinion that this conflict will be dissolved sooner or later. but at the same time, the south asian countries and other countries has a great example to know that when the rest decides to something in dear interest, they will come together. but when the global challenges there, they will not. they think that the european problem is everybody's problem is not the way in a major blow for the upcoming us hosted summit for the americas. the president of mexico refuses to show up, slamming washington's move to exclude several countries. from the event a law company. i am not going to the summit because not all countries of the americas were invited. i believe in the need to change a policy that has been imposed for centuries exclusion and the desire to dominate,

for no reason. the failure to respect the sovereignty of countries, the independence of each country. we think it's a continuation of the old policy of interventionism, of disrespect for nations in their people's the countries in question are cuba, venezuela and nicaragua. all 3 are subject of un sanctions. washington, which refused to show up to the previous event, has said that it will uphold the decision and stressed that the summit will still be successful. the president of bolivia has previously said that he won't attend. and guatemala, salvador and honduras have now said that they may follow suit. the summit, which will open on wednesday, was expected to kick start us engagement in the region with migration and an increase in the trade in oil expected among the major topics. the absence of venezuela and mexico will be heartfelt as both are among the regions largest oil producers and mexico provides the main route for the migration to the u. s. journalists been, you mean norton believes that the regions countries are now looking for ways to

improve connection with other major powers 1000 uses by the end of the u. s. seeing that there is crisis in the region, and that's why they want to use this summit to basically say, we're still the head of america. but the response from a several countries in the region shows understanding that there are alternatives that the u. s. there's not the only power there are they can improve relations with china, russia, ron, or india. in this 10 by the failure of the summit of the americas reflects the major changes in today's world and in g o policy. that's the u. s. may greenlight shipping venezuelan oil to europe by italian and spanish companies resuming an oil for debt swap pulses 2 years ago and aimed at cutting european dependence on russian crude dance. according to it, reuters a report. now the move wouldn't see washington backtrack from a position it took just 3 years ago. we're going to announce sanctions against petroleum to venezuela, associate dod nima or paid a vase as it's known by spanish acronym, the state owned oil, minot. boy,

we have continued to expose the corruption of the duro and his cronies. and today's action ensures they can no longer lose the assets of the venezuelan people. the oil embargo was imposed by the u. s. in its efforts to try and topple venezuelan president nicholas venturo, accusing him of facilitating corruption, negative economy growth, and humanitarian crisis. as well is not the only sanction country, the u. s. may allow oil shipments from with iran, the subject of us punishment over its nuclear program. also reportedly being considered sanctions against russian oil have seen prices in the u. s. now reach a 13 year high international petroleum economist john foster believes that the united states oil agenda is hypocritical. my emotional reaction is allow for little, is completed focusing, of course, and evocative grips. but the

game is very clearly to, to bring down russia. and so europe, from this point of view is, is key to bringing down russia and other ways to break this trade. that's been built up so carefully. since since $960.00, it might take all that would be that the amount of oil that state, we don't know how much it is. a newspaper articles that goes from reuters gave didn't know how much we're talking about, but it doesn't appear to be much. and really, in my view, in relation to the amount of oil that russia currently exports into europe, which is 3 and a half 1000000 barrels. a day comments considered blasphemous by 2 high ranking indian officials have caused a diplomatic rift with several muslim countries, including neighboring pakistan to members of the ruling party are reported to have

insulted prophet mohammed during a tv debate last week. most officials won the parties, a national spokeswoman subsequently being suspended comments resulted in a wave of demonstrations in india's capital and over 15 countries, formerly protesting the incident with pockets on one of them, highlighting the pain and anguish the remarks had caught. 7 these totally unacceptable remarks have not only deeply heard the sentiments of the people of pakistan but of billions of muslims around the world. b, j p's attempted clarification, and belated and perfunctory disciplinary action against these individuals cannot assuaged the pain and anguish they have caused to the muslim world. the party in question released a statement, saying it respects all religions and strongly denounces insults of any religious personalities. it also highlighted the that all indian citizens had a right to practice any religion of their choice, and should honor and respect all other faith. political analysts told us that they

don't expect the remarks to trouble the thousands of years of muslim into unity that the country has enjoy. the very constitution of india speaks that we are in its b m, when we are a sovereign socialistic yolanda public. we believe that hindu muslim, think christians and many other minority communities live together. go exist together in universal brotherhood. but unfortunately, the ruling party off in the b g, b, and their spokesperson. the blasphemous nature of love was absolutely uncall forward and an equally unconditionally. it must be condemned. you know, in india, there are 2 brothers brothers living together in such beautiful you need to reduce when the spokesperson of a particular party comes out and make such a controversial or blasphemous statement, which is called fault because your own restored to respect each other really do anything about being proffered mom

a be upon him one bit. this has been in by the b u, of which she was a woman and know she has been a friend at follow up from the party, from the board. a definitely packet with dry its level best, but should look for their most lame then into india, has to be man to hold them off years. nobody can can breed be born the fabric, gulf hindu muslim unit. the card to be broken. it as it has to be, what did the duty colon feel then? it is time custard one and the other plans for a say 1st cybersecurity space are failing to win fans among the west big tech companies who claim the new regulations set to come into place at the end of the month. pose a risk to personal privacy. we respectfully urge you to withdraw the directions as

they would weaken. cybersecurity amplify the risk of surveillance, particularly for journalists and human rights defenders and jeopardize the right to privacy and india. the new regulations call for tech firms to report on data breaches within 6 hours and to save user logs for at least 5 years in the it says it's a response to a growing number of cyber attacks in the country and hopes the new regulations will provide vital data to help probe those incidents. the spike big tech firms criticizing the indian authorities. such regulations are commonly used in a number of countries from january to june last year. google reported on around 51000 requests from the u. s. government to disclose the data private users. we spoke to a cybersecurity expert who said that big tech has little choice, but to follow the new regulations. seen a new trick with loss. so as to why this awful plaque for homes and services are offering this is linda,

but i'm not comfortable to go ahead and shoot information to them. so they are comfortable with simulating money from the market, but they're not complying with locals. and that's one please. and we find that the indian unfortunately, since he's often leaching that didn't when the requested information from lisa was quite as information often does not come. most of the time it just ended this one think that i am a medical company, please come by than we truly get assistance street. and we found out that the m black loot is totally inadequate or not all human topical in today's tanks. so most of the time you found out that the death of the appropriate prosecution proceedings in india was i bought, i matters often because it didn't primarily because these companies on one protection, the other do not share information with indian attorneys. it's, it's time that they do exist, the big companies will have more choices, but to comply and given the huge size of the market just constantly growing,

given the huge with us opportunities that exist in india. i don't see any proven to big company wants to make money to go away from the indian market, saying that i'm not pretty comfortable with these loops. meanwhile, the indian foreign minister has wrapped up a 2 nation tour of europe with a strong rebuke during a visit to slovakia. the diplomat criticized european leaders for being silent on many issues when he faced questions on india's position on the war and ukraine. he went on to slam the continents self centered vision. so you know, somewhere europe has to grow out of the mindset that europe's problems are. there was problems. but there was problems are not your ups problems. that it's, if it is you, it's yours, which is me, it's os. i think that's something. and i see reflections of that

a linkage between china and india and what's happening in the crate. so come on guys from china and india happened way before anything happened in india has arrived at the stage where it feels that it can no longer be bullied. it can no longer be course to take, you know, one side or the other. it is a fusing to be part of the us lead western block and the china lead eastern block. it is trying to regain its strategic independence that expecting that india will gotten them russia on the ukrainian issue. but india is refusing to do that as the in fact, extra enough, as minister has said that it is not. and in guess in dress, do we, you know, to be, to be doing the line that you are up or the us would like to take the recent past. they've been several examples. so really episodes where. 8 8 doctor,

as j shak good, if you bought the yard out, but he bought to europe off the shows and also to american options. because it's, it seems that india has made up its mind that it's been not bo, before. the us on europe, on russia and on you being an issue that does it for me this hour, stay with us throughout the day though as we bring you more news and commentary, this is our international. glad cathy with us the ah .

a news media describe it and i can if you speak russian, keep your voice down while out and about a couple don't put your human symbols on display a little space each night. all right, so you guys don't talk to strangers. 7 i avoid noisy gatherings and run

a marsh. we've eaten your colleagues and perhaps also your friends think you're guilty because you'll, russian. a specific struggle with what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy. even foundation, let it be an arms race is on very dramatic development. only really i'm, i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time. time to sit down and talk

ah, monday i decided i'm hoping that other muslim countries do the same is to actually i next with this thing you a stadium is my question, i'm and china and so did. did cultures are different religions are the friend culture backgrounds with common threads to the humanity in washing ah ah, in a

while you're talking about your students a told her children, but the school i hope that i see a lot. oh, sure to stick with a lot because i love a deal with my echo grimes group where that pulled up or what interested also, julia, does she somebody over there or socially bud zamarelli,

but she was with us. i was just talking to a video. we've got a new up well let's see above a bunch. so it's a a dual might be for ah.
