3:06 pm
term as president of ukraine from 2014 to 2018. he undermined he deliberately sabotaged the immense sc agreements he bargained in bad faith. and therefore, he is an author of the current military conflict in ukraine and should be held responsible after the war if there is some kind of tribunal and asked for the countries which guaranteed implementation of the minsk agreements, including france and germany and the o. s. c. these countries, they bear responsibility. they were either fools or accomplices of portia ankle because for 8 years they did nothing to stop the, the horrendous loss of life in dawn. that's and the turning of a 1000000 people into refugees. so they too are to blame. clearly, there was a war being plotted against the people of the donnette and lucon sco
3:07 pm
republics. and when they tell us how much they care about the people of ukraine, it's not true, it's not true. it wasn't true in yugoslavia that wasn't true in afghanistan wasn't true and, and libya wasn't true in iraq. this is, these countries are just ponds and a great global game of the u. s. empire u. k prime minister of irish johnson is facing backlash from an pays off the he skipped a key conference at home and faith as making a surprise visit to cares. children spokesperson announced he will not be attending the summit in the you cases. now, as before, he was expected to speak at the event. absent leadership pretty much sums up this government's approach to the country's problems. it's not an excuse. he could have gone there any time. even his most loyal supporters here are pretty pissed off. this is the 1st test of outreach to his colleagues and he has failed it. the prime
3:08 pm
minister is also being accused of showing total content for his colleagues and one which is on piece voice that outrage. johnson was busy being entertained by president lensky in long discussing additional u. k. military support for ukraine. johnson's on announced visit time shortly after the german, french and italian leaders came to clear the talks on thursday. political commentator, antony weapons, things the british premier is kenny putting his foreign policy agenda for if i said he was citing eyes were important for me. see, this is a foreign country. now for me to recall the interested on my own country, the tree need to go to the crime, but it's almost like he's trying to off stage the 3 key to you, my leaders, pharmacy for farms and cool. so to pull from was from
3:09 pm
or yeah, i apparently were trying to look at some piece initiatives in return for fast tracking, d, u n. c a n g you all the master. the key point is that it does seem to crime that is a national royal strike with many, many economic problems in the try and the new fuel crisis, along with things which is not catching policy. as a new twist, there was being called the fake news war, either ukraine with a report for usa today resigning and shame on the outlet admitted she cooked up fax for 23 of best stories. the audit reveal that some individuals quoted were not
3:10 pm
affiliated with the organizations claimed and appeared to be fabricated. the existence of individuals quoted could not be independently verified. in addition, some stories included quotes that should have been credited to others. as a result, you are so today remove 23 articles from its website and of a platforms for not meeting. our editorial standards miranda has resigned as a reporter. at least 2 of the report is fake news articles that focused on the conflicts in ukraine, alleging negligence by russian forces after they'd seize these apples. she had nuclear power plant and southern ukraine. the boast article also claimed that russians had threatened to blow up the facility on another piece by the shamed reporter, focused on the stories of the ukrainian women on the front lines, which was also made up. the outlets has issued an apology for the fake news piece is more promising to improve its fact checking the pulled stories during a library of fabrications pumped out by the mainstream media. since the start of
3:11 pm
the military conflict. steve gail, a radio host and political commentator told is, is very troubling, that western outlets continue to publish lies about ukraine. i don't think anybody believes if this was the only reporter engaged in this kind of making up quotes, making up stories. it takes a culture to produce that kind of outright buy a pattern. and i think the real irony is this is a publication that does the fact checking for facebook. people that get hired in newspapers by editors that have a little bit by their supervisor, to have a little bit of a journalism scholar just that they go to that have a liberal that they come in with a perspective that is not necessarily a, an accurate world. view and then it gets promoted with not only who hires them but who promotes them. so i think it's a major problem. we've seen it in the us for a long time. and i think it's a dangerous problem because it's, if the public isn't getting the truth, it really is hard for a democracy,
3:12 pm
a republic operate. i hope that usa today won't stop with this incident again. i think there's a culture of dis, information that's taking place in the media globally. and certainly in united states, we've seen it with the smear campaign directed against president trump in the last 4 years. so i hope that they don't stop with this firing dis apology, and think that their work is done. again, they have hundreds of newspapers and other media outlets. they're owned by ganette and they need to be searching every one to see that the same thing is not happening because i think it's more of a culture. and it is just one road reporter i got into a public official se sum ukrainian. so just have surrendered at the local chemical plant in the city of several on yes, as this will say, the exact number of military prisons, their affiliation to 30 units is no. it's being disclosed for security reasons to point to potential persecution if their relatives in ukraine now to 2 and a half 1000 troops, including foreign mercenaries, the believe to be hold up inside the embattled city sprawling industrial zone.
3:13 pm
several western mercenaries were also among a group of recently captured competence in northeast and ukraine. we sat down with 2 of them, both americans to find out what put them to the wall. so now just a warning with not being able to independently verify that claims the it was reported in or, you know, prior to like january, february of this year, i really knew i couldn't even tell you where ukraine was on a map, to be honest. we were not getting that news, but when things kinda started muddling up and then kicking off here, they did start reporting on the fact that there had been conflict in dumbass for, for the past 8 years. but it was always presented as russian aggression in that area. we were not told about any ukrainian attacks were what we're told about the ukrainians is that they were in trenches re ready to defend initially when the conflict started on february 24th, i saw a lot of news. and again,
3:14 pm
i now believed that they were propaganda from the west side, not visibly just america, but west as a whole. that there is that right russian for his work. got it like indiscriminately killing like civilians and through my travels. i do not see that i would say it was probably my eagerness, my stupidity coming here with not a lot of knowledge of the conflict that all. i hope one day i can go home to my wife and start a family and forget the conflict. just try them and other people not to come here. ah, i don't know the location, but we were in the like a forest carkeek area. we engage in combat with russian troops. now ukraine were retreating and we were asked to cover their retreat. when we were
3:15 pm
covering them, the russian forces ran over in our position. we had to like fully, ritchie and when one of my colleagues and i waited about 3 hours in a fighting hole, just to make sure the coast is clear. after those 3 hours, we ended up walking 4 through the woods for about 5 hours. we eventually got onto a road. when we surrender to russian forces, it's not my war. i feel for the ukrainian and people i feel for the russian people, you know, i feel for everyone involved because war is, is terrible regardless of the circumstances. i don't know why the wes focus is, is just sending weapons, weapons, weapons, money, money, money. there is a diplomatic solution to this problem somewhere, but it's going to take some time to get there. and i just think that they're at this time, they're not willing to deal with it. so they'd rather just give
3:16 pm
a bunch stuff to ukraine and let it be ukraine's problem. i would say to anyone who's thinking about coming over, you think really long and hard about about why you're doing it and what can happen and, and if this is really your fight, if this is really something that you need to be doing, one of the world's biggest and most important business events, the st. petersburg international economic form wraps up on saturday office several eventful days. me on friday rushes president delivered a key speech on global economic issue that the event the military operation in ukraine was also in the spotlight. lot of my patients stressed that russia will not abandon the people of dumbass who need moscow's protection. look on your some of would in this you shouldn't do that course. we will protect the interests of those people for whom are guys fighting that today,
3:17 pm
getting injured and dying. there is only one way through this. what else of these sacrifices for, of course, we will support the people who live in these territories. but in the end, only the people who live that will determine their own future and we will respect any choice they make. that person also weighed in on a range of other topics in his speech, including how the so called a blitzkrieg of western sanctions against moscow has failed. the president mentioned to an inevitable end of the unit polar world order and the importance of technological sovereignty to ensure russia can produce and provide for itself. while avoiding international self isolation can use well for him. also hosted high profile officials from all over the world. the minister of mines energy and walked, as molly told us, that the african country is seeking to expanded, seeking on a partnership with russia. it was important for us to expand context with the russian economic operators. this cooperation, which has so far,
3:18 pm
been limited to the educational and military spheres can extend to the economic sector. and this can actually ensure the stability of relations. molly's energy sector is indeed going through a real crisis. and this has been the case long before the oil crisis began. today, the cost of oil purchases is really high for the main electricity generating company. and molly, we are more or less coping with this crisis. thanks to the molly and economic operators. we're putting a lot of effort to meet the needs of the population. we also count on russian molly and cooperation, so that the molly and market is sufficiently provided with fuel and gas today. indeed, all countries of the world are facing rising prices for food products. that is why in search of a better solution and may be large. molly and ministerial delegation led by foreign minister of july, the old met with the russian foreign ministers certainly love ralph to discuss the issue of russian companies supplying fertilizers, wheat,
3:19 pm
and basic food products that molly needs me with whistleblower julian, a songs facing up to a 175 years in us prison on spin on us charges. his family has denounced the wicked co founders x traditional to to the west, which was issued by london on friday process is being used ah, to high atrocity. and we know that from history. oh, good that can be done and the u. k. should not be doing that. it should not be engaging in persecution on behalf of a foreign power that is out for revenge. judy with a country publishing evidence of war. so joe and corruption, what is decision made is that basic toilet journalism that people do every day.
3:20 pm
we'll see you probation. publishing information is now legal in the u. k. with an excise, a songs will appear like a it's london's decision and he still has 2 weeks to do. so the u. k. home secretaries announcement on extradition, sponsor international outreach human rights organizations such as the committee to protect journalists and amnesty international have spoken up for the whistleblower . the extradition of julian assange to the united states to face trial on charges under the century old espionage act as a blow to press freedom with implications for journalists everywhere. we urge the biden administration to live up to it stated commitment to a free press by dropping all charges against the wiki leaks founder. allowing julian his sons to be expedited to the u. s. would put him at great risk incense, a chilling message to journalists, the world over, we call the u. k. to refrain from expediting julian assange for the us to drop the
3:21 pm
charges and for a songy to be freed hard to believe. but it looks real. every serious press freedom group in the world has protested this. it is an appalling symbol of how far the british, an american government's commitment to human rights has declined. anyone in this country who cares about freedom of expression should be deeply ashamed that the home secretary has approved. the extradition of julian assange to the united states, the country that plotted his assassination. as long as legal case has been going on for years and 2019, his asylum was revoked in ecuador, and embassy, and london, where he'd been hiding since skipping bail. he wasn't arrested by you carol socrates and sent to the bell last maximum security prison. in 2021 of the extradition hearings began, the presiding british judge concluded it would be oppressive to extra die to songs to the us due to his health issues. but that decision was returned to less than a year later when london supreme court agreed with the us request to hand over the whistleblower. in april, a london magistrate court issued an official extradition order followed by the u. k
3:22 pm
. home office approving it on friday. as long as came on the us scrutiny in 2010 after which makes publish, tribes have classified information about the boys in afghan install and they walk exposing footage of american soldiers indiscriminately drilling down civilians. they exposed. they also revealed torture on prison. a death at the notorious guantanamo bay detention camp will call us pervade the sanchez lawyer in ecuador with a london is ex traditional. there is a threat to journalists worldwide. gm friends in so ever since, sec. little grunted political asylum to julian salvage. we have been warning that decisions on the case could set a dangerous precedent look based on these principles. the former president of ecuador, raffo, korea, described such actions as the persecution of freedom of speech. all this time we have been insisting, and now we are especially insisting that this could be a disastrous precedent for investigative journalism,
3:23 pm
for freedom of speech. and for us ordinary citizens as recipients of information produced by the media. in other words, any person, any journalists who tries to condemn the illegal actions of a powerful state, will have to serve a prison sentence on the territory of this state. so it's not just about to son. this is our common cause of fighting for freedom of speech. and it should consent, all journalists, regardless of where they come from, what media they represent. this is a kind of gag law that hinders their activities. so, oh, florida as governor has accused the u. s. president of dodging personal responsibility for the record high inflation in the country, calling to i biden's position, an insult to the american people. he needs to take responsibility is always trying to blame other people. ah, he's always trying to create a scapegoat. i guess his position is that it wasn't until he became president, that oil companies are trying to make profits. it's insulting to the average
3:24 pm
a citizen to listen to. some of this drivel are coming out of the white house and because they know people are upset about it. they know they're responsible for it. so they're just looking for a buggy man. i to try to pin this on me while biden himself has switched to blaming international shipping funds for the crisis. and his find a new law imposing several restrictions on the carriers and legislation prohibits them from unreasonably declining exports and limits them from imposing additional fees on contain handley, what responds the wild shipping counsel stated that the new restrictions will only cramp existing supply chain problems within the u. s. itself is kind of the middle standoff between biden and oil refinery company's president's has urge them to ramp up the output to lower prices at the pump. as americans struggle with the bank clash of us sanctions against russia. there is no question. the latter mere prudent is principally responsible for the intense financial pain,
3:25 pm
the american people and their families are bearing. but a mid award that has raised gasoline prices, historically high refinery profit margins are worsening. that pain globally, we've invested double what we've earned over the past 5 years. this is a reflection of the company's long term growth strategy and our commitment to continuously invest to meet society's demand for our products. unfortunately, what we have seen since january 2021 are policies that send a message that the administration names to impose obstacles to our industry, delivering energy resources the world needs. foreign affairs and security analysts moxley bode essays president binds and is simply trying to shift the attention of the us tax tax pads in both his from his own political status. as an inviting is simply in error. and with this latest round of who he's trying to find blame from, it becomes more apparent. what he's really trying to do is shift blame from himself
3:26 pm
in the run up to the u. s. november congressional election where his approval rating as tank down below 40 percent currently at 39 percent, which does not bode well for the democratic party going into those election. the political cost of his actions are, are coming home to roost. and he or his party doesn't want to accept the consequences of that. they hope that they could spin their way out of this. quote, is that by mean? what by didn't means is my economic war against russia is failing tax, right? that is, biden's tax was russia the sanction the united states in the us, the sanction russia i the by did ministration in an attempt, a rather economically unfounded attempt to cut russians commodities. again, that are so valuable to the entire global economy,
3:27 pm
out of the global economy, resulting in these runaway prices for energy and food which drive up the prices of everything else. thanks for keeping his company here all naughty international. as always, he can find plenty more news and debate and discussion on our website r t dot com. ah, ah ah
3:28 pm
mm. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk with
3:29 pm
