4:06 pm
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. i asked for the countries which guaranteed implementation of the minsk agreements, including france and germany and the o. s. c. e, these countries, they bear responsibility. they were either fools or accomplices of porsche ankle because for 8 years they did nothing to stop the, the horrendous loss of life in gun 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 republics
4:07 pm
. 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 boris johnson is facing backlash room and pays off the he skipped the key conference at home in favor of making a surprise visit to cares. children spokesperson announced he will not be attending this summer to new cases down 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. if my minister is also being accused of
4:08 pm
showing total contempt for his colleagues and one which isn't the voice that outweighed, johnson was busy being entertained by president zalinski in k, at long discussing additional u. k. military support for ukraine. something's on announced visit come shortly after the german, french and italian leaders came to clear the talks on thursday. political commentator anthony web as things the british premier is kenny putting his foreign policy agenda for the basically deciding is more important for me say, this is a foreign country now for me to cost the interests of my own. my own country is the true you didn't need to go to the ukraine, but it's almost like he is trying to off stage the 3 key g u leaders pop up from a c for farms and cool. so to pull from was from media.
4:09 pm
i apparently were trying to look at some piece initiatives in return for foss tracking d, u n. c, a n g. you all the master the key core and says that it does seem to crime that is a national role strike many, many economic problems in the try and the new fuel crisis, along with things which are not catching policy as a new twist. there was thing called the fake news war, either ukraine with a report for usa today resigning and shame on the outlet admitted sheet cooked up 523 of those stories. the old, it revealed, at some individuals quoted,
4:10 pm
were not 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, usa today remove 23 articles from its website, and other platforms are not meeting our editorial standards. we're under, has resigned as a reporter, at least 2 of the report, his fake news articles and focused on the conflicts in ukraine, alleging negligence by russian forces. also, they'd seize these apples. yeah. nuclear power plant and southern ukraine. the post article also claims the russians that threatened to blow up the facility or another piece by the shamed reporter focused on the stories of ukrainian women on the front lines which was also made up. the outlets house issued an apology for the fake news pieces while promising to improve its facts, checking the poor stories during a library of fabrications pumps out by the mainstream media. since the stars have
4:11 pm
been military conflict, the fil a radio host on political commentator told us this is very troubling, that western out this continues 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 was 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,
4:12 pm
a republic operate. i hope that usa today won't stop with this incident again. i think there's a culture of just information that's taking place in the media globally. and certainly in the 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 say that the same thing is not happening because i think it's more of a culture than 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 don. yes, official say the exact number of military prisons, their affiliation to 30 units is not what's being disclosed for security reasons, to appoint the potential persecution of their relatives in ukraine. now to 2 and a half 1000 troops, including foreign mercenaries, the believe to be hold up inside the embattled cities sprawling industrial zine.
4:13 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 war. so not just a warning with not being able to independently verify that claims the. it was reported in our, 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 for a ready to defend initially when the conflict started on february 24th, i saw
4:14 pm
a lot of news. and again, i now believed that they were propaganda from the west side, not visibly just america, but the 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 did 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 and his charter and then other people not to come here. oh, i don't know the location, but we were indeed like a forest car, key area. we engage in combat with russian troops. now ukraine were retreating and we were asked to cover their retreat. when we were covering them,
4:15 pm
the russian force ran over and our position we had to like fully retreat and when one of my colleagues and i waited about 3 hours in a fighting hole, just you 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 work. i feel for the ukrainian and people i feel for the russian people, you know, i feel for everyone involved because, or is, is terrible regardless of the circumstances. i don't know why the west's 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 a bunch stuff to ukraine and let it be ukraine's problem, i would say,
4:16 pm
tend to anyone who is 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, rush as president delivered a key speech on global economic issue that the event the military operation ukraine was also in the spotlight. let me stress that russia will not abandon the people of dumbass who need moscow protection going. you're some of them shifting juice. of course, we will protect the interests of those people for whom are guys fighting there today, getting injured and dying. there is only one way through this. what else to the
4:17 pm
sacrifices for its course? we will support the people who live in these territories. but in the end, only the people who live there will determine their own future and we will respect any choice. they make. utica through patent pearson 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 unipolar world order and the importance of technological sovereignty to ensure russia can produce and provide for itself. while avoiding international self isolation can use a forum also hosted high profile officials from all over the world. the minister of mines, energy and woo, as molly told, is that the african country is sticking to expanded, seeking on the partnership with russia. it was important for us to expand contacts with russian economic operators. this cooperation, which has so far, been limited to the educational and military spheres can extend to the economic
4:18 pm
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, but 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 in may, a large malia and ministerial delegation led by foreign minister abdulla d. o met with the russian foreign ministers survey lover of to discuss the issue of russian companies supplying fertilizers, wheat,
4:19 pm
and basic food products that molly needs. ah, with whistleblower julian songs facing up to a 175 years in us prison on and spin on us charges. his family has denounced the wicked expel, found as extradition or to the west, which was issued by london on friday process is being used to hire a trophy. and we know that from histories that that can be done and the u. k. should not be doing that, it should not be engaging in prosecution on behalf of a foreign power that is out for revenge. joe's been published, extradited from the country, publishing evidence of war, cry, georgia and corruption. what decision made is that basic journalism,
4:20 pm
journalism that people do every day think information, publishing information, now the legal in the u. k. what can they say the songs will appear like a london decision, and he still has 2 weeks to do. so. the u. k. home secretary, the announcements on extradition, sparks international outrage, 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 bite and administration to live up to it stated commitment to a free press by dropping all charges against the wiki leaks founder, allowing julian sons to be expedited to the u. s. would put him at great risk incense or chilling message to journalists, the world over we call on the u. k. to refrain from expediting julian assange for the us to drop the charges and for a songy to be freed hard to believe. but it looks real. every serious press freedom
4:21 pm
group in the world has protested this. it is an appalling symbol of how far the british and american government's commitment to human rights has declined. any one 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. i found his legal case has been going on for years and 2019 has asylum was revoked in the ecuadorian embassy in london where he had been hiding since skipping bail. he wasn't arrested by you. kell thirty's and sent to the bell marsh maximum security prison in 2021. after extradition hearings began, the presiding british judge concluded it would be oppressive to extradite to songs to the us due to his health issues. but that decision was overturned and less than a year later when london supreme court agreed with the us request to hand over the whistleblower. in april, a london magistrate's court issued an official extradition order followed by the u

4:23 pm
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. cecilia, oh, florida, as governor, has accused the u. s. president of dodging personal responsibility for the record high inflation in the country, calling j 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
4:24 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 binding himself has switched to blaming international shipping firms for the crisis and to find a new law imposing several restrictions on the carriers. the legislation prohibits them from unreasonably declining exports and limits them from imposing additional fees on contain a hand leg what a response the well shipping counsel stated that the new restrictions will only cramp existing supply chain problems within the us itself. is, comes amid a standoff between bind and an oil refinery companies. the president has urge them to ramp up the output to lower prices at the pump as american struggle with the backlash of us sanctions against russia. there is no question that vladimir putin is principally responsible for the intense financial pain, the american people and their families are bearing. but
4:25 pm
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, our policies that send a message that the administration names to impose obstacles to our industry, delivering energy resources the world needs quantifies and security analysts, moxley boat essays, president bind and is simply trying to shift the attention of u. s. tax pay, tax pays and voted from his own political fatis 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 in the run up to the us, november congressional election,
4:26 pm
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 causes that by mean, what biting means is my economic war against russia is failing tax. right? that is, biden's tax was russia that sanctioned the united states in the us, the sanction russia i the by did ministration in an attempt a rather economically on down the attempt to cut russians commodities. again, that are so valuable to the entire global economy. out of the global economy,
