a with turkey agrees to admit finland and sweden to nato, lifting its opposition and green lighting the blocks enlargement something russia considers a red line a blaze out of ukrainian shopping mall sparks debates at an emergency meeting of the un security council. but the key of climbing moscow targeted the building, while russia meanwhile says, well, they're assuring that the centered caught fire after it targeted ukrainian ammunition stockpile nearby with oil prices. continuing despite us officials to turn to venezuela to rebuild relations. despite previously declaring the country,

a threat to us national security with broadcasting live direct, more studios in moscow. this is our to international. i'm john thomas. certainly glad to have you with us. are now turkey has agreed to, to lift opposition to sweden and finland, joining nato. the 3 countries leaders signed a trilateral deal in which turkey green lights of the admission in turn returned for assurances. finland and sweden will stop, support for critic forces mancha considers to be terrorists. now, the nato chief marks the breakthrough as a big step to further confine russia and didn't miss the chance to poke moscow cause we're still waiting for the reaction from russia bought interesting about this is it means that we are likely to see a further increasing of need to moving eastwards. it's something that is done since 1949. if you look at the map pair, you'll see how it's been expanding,

particularly during the post cold war area where it ended up allowing countries to join which saw that kalin grad, the enclave of russia. that was surrounded then by nato countries. then steadily moving up to the baltic nations, which meant that it was right at russia's border. this idea that fin and in particular could now join nato would mean that some 1300 kilometers of board. that finan shares with russia would mean that essentially nato is absolutely on russia's doorstep. there is no, nothing to question about in regards to this, moscow's consistently said it's these, this is being a red line. it sees this has been an aggressive move and it certainly likely that we will get something to that tune coming from the kremlin later today. now it really does sound when you hear the nature sexy general talk that as if they kind

of egging on the kremlin, you look at what we're doing. we are saying whoever wants to join us can join us and we will do just that. so that is likely to provoke some reaction to and russia is not the only one that has concern about this. it continued expansion of nato china to as it's concerns. china based close attention to nature's adjustment to his strategic concepts. and his deeper concerns about this policy is implications. we urged nato to learn his lessons and not to use the crisis in ukraine as an excuse to escalate worldwide confrontation or to create a new cold war. now, nato has consistently said this is about strengthening its alliance that some might be questioning at what cost is it doing that or so, or turkey. they've had a very important role to play and allowing suite in finland to get to this point. so i to, they were basically there to make some concessions these countries,

but specifically about these critic groups. tell me about those groups and why it does turkey really haven't thought of their side for that's why i'm in turkey. has made a huge u turn when it comes to allowing finland and sweden to join the nato alliance. we've heard for the last few months from president erred one of turkey, that this will not happen, that they were not happy about sweden and finland for many issues, particularly over these groups that turkey sees as being terror groups. now as part of this memorandum, this has been signed by the 3 countries, sweden and finland say that they repeat that they recognize the p k. k as being a terrorist organization. this is a kurdish group that has been fighting for independence in the southeast of turkey . for the last few decades, they've also said that they will not be supporting the y p g in the p y d in future . then this is interesting because these are kurdish groups that normally operate in the north of syria. that of course, tensions in the past between the u. s. franks and turkey because turkeys alleged

that the us and france said not just only supported them with trading, but of also given the weapons. so that's an interesting development and sweden and finland have said that they're now going to, we look at any requests for extradition of groups that turkey sees as being terrorist individuals or aligned with those groups. and what is really going to get from this is that turkey is pretty much got everything. it said that it wanted over the last few months at, but kurdish groups are properly feeling pretty betrayed at by this signature of this miranda and particularly by turkey. this b, f i s wheaton, which has been accused of sort of aiding it in the past at the final plan hasn't been laid out yet. of course, we'll get that all the summit and we are waiting for that reaction from russia. but what's really interesting is that for the past few months, nato's consistently said that what it wants to do is to keep below it on the ukraine crisis, the war in ukraine, making sure that it doesn't spill over from its borders. russia's me see this as

being the complete opposite of that by now essentially green lighting at the accession of finland and sweden. really, i spoke to kennestone from the hamilton coalition to stop the war movement, who believes that nato enlargement brings us closer to the unthinkable. i expect that russia will continue to say what has been saying all along that nato should roll back its expansion towards russia. and we have to understand from the russian point of view and from our point of view, even in here in canada, nato is an aggressive military alliance. and nato is responsible for dismembering the yugoslavian federation. nato is responsible for 20 years of horrible war. and i've janice dance is responsible for the destruction of libya and it's turning it into a failed state. so it becomes, it brings us closer and closer to a,

to the unthinkable. because nato has a 1st strike policy. it has a nuclear policy, and it's in the process of planting missile systems, aggressive missile systems and armaments in countries in eastern europe, which threatened russia. and the russians know that the game plan as we have seen in ukraine, is to turn all these countries into nato. countries with the intention of bringing natal right up to the russian border and doing to russia what it did to the u. s. lobby in federation. let's go to the latest on the ukraine conflict. a child has been killed and 3 people injured and ukrainian forces showing of novia kafka that is according to him on the authorities who say that of the for touch gate. you missiles fired, free were intercepted by russian air defense or you cranium. forces are also

reported to have shelled us, you know, via in the done yes, the people's republic, according to authorities, 10 grand rockets were fired at the city and the village of novel. but most of them and goal of car city and its suburbs were also targeted elsewhere in lugens because already se ukrainian forces opened fire on the city of brianca, where several residential buildings and a power line were damaged. they also claim that kia has used us donated m $142.00 high mars rocket system for the 1st time in an attack on the city of, of ask meanwhile, heated debate at the un security council meeting, where western diplomats are investigating exactly what happens at a shopping mall on the territory under ukraine's control not into done by us. here is video of firefighters sorting through debris of the burned out shopping mall, which ukrainian officials claim moscow, targeted,

leaving at least 18 people that in turn, rushes defense ministry has denied targeting the facility thing. instead struck a factory in which ukraine's military had been storing weapons, just meters away. that to triggered an explosion which led to the fire in the mall . now on this map, you can see that the shopping mall is just 70 meters from where the weapons were being stored. while ccg footage from my local park shows the moment the air strikes . if the building, which had been devastated nearby facilities suggesting that the missile attack did indeed target the factory. now, here is footage from the factory itself. the boss of the plant has said that the missile destroy the building. however, there were no reports of any death or casualties. a russian representative to the un has related moscow's position to the council condition. wouldn't you please?

i'm sorry. shopping center was not affected by the strike. said it was some distance away. this can be seen on the surveillance video hitting them all with myself would have destroyed it. video from ukraine and bloggers shows that goes inside the shopping center. we're not affected by blast. neighboring houses to the shopping center were also not affected. their windows were not broken, which would have only been possible if the messiah exploded at a considerable distance from the area. we have not talked to civilian infrastructure and are not doing it now. you just heard from the russian deputy ambassador paul janski's, and he pointed out that there is fatigue in western countries including the united states, about the ongoing conflict in ukraine and its economic consequences. and he argues that there is just a continued barrage of fading news. i intended to justify the further supplying of weapons and funding to the ukrainian government that seems to have no qualms about sacrificing its people. now it's pointed out that these allegations about the

shopping center that just don't add up fit in with the ghost story. they fit in with, with the allegations of that snake island new sailors being massacred when they weren't actually killed. it fits him with a whole pattern of deception before we heard from the russian deputy ambassador. we also heard from the ukrainian president himself who spoke over video. he was given a platform by the representative of albania. he called for the un to find some mechanism through which they could declare russia to be a terrorist state and remove it from the security council. then we also heard from the representative of the united states who echoed and offered support for crane, and then made some other interesting remarks. this is what the u. s. representative said before the 15 member body that leads the united nations that russia is war of choice has led directly to the destruction of crowded malls, grocery stores, theaters hospitals, and schools,

and the innocent civilians inside them and make no mistake. deliberate and indiscriminate attacks on civilians and civilian objects constitute war crimes. the united states supports all international investigations into these crimes, including those being conducted by the i c, c, the u. n. and the o. s. c. now the support we just heard from the representative of the states before the united nations for the international criminal court is quite interesting as the united states is not actually a member of the i c. c. and furthermore, in 2020 us officials imposed sanctions against the international criminal court because it dared to investigate the crimes of us troops in afghanistan. so it's quite interesting to hear the usa offering support for the international criminal court. the representative of russia basically debunked a lot of the garage of deceptive information. i pointed out that russia has supplied information to counter the claims that are being bandied about by western

media. regardless of that, back western media ignores the documentation. russia provide, show it is not committing crimes against civilians. both the kids and the west have unanimously dubbed the incident at the mall a war crime, despite russia's denial that a field in which western powers have had more than their fair share of controversy . but he's done quarter comments on why, according to moscow, it was the massive explosion caused by all that ammunition going off at the same time that made the nearby mall catch fire as well. on top of that, the ukrainian cities mayor is saying that the malls management for some reason decided it wasn't going to shut the place down. if the air raid alarm started to go off, neglecting right alerts is a crime which the turn you to has once again demonstrated, the investigation has reeled, that the administration of arms to had announced on the 23rd of june, that the more would no longer be closed during the rate alerts if

a high precision missile dealt that much damage to nearby infrastructure, imagined the destruction that an artillery bombardment would have wrought. according to a previous conclusion by the international criminal court, russia should be well within its rights to bomb a 70 meter radius surrounding the legend, military target. why? while there is the case of antic tobin and blood and markets to former creation generals who were acquitted of war crimes by the skin of their teeth. at 1st, these western backed military men were found guilty of indiscriminately bombing towns as part of an offensive that killed 116 civilians and displaced hundreds of thousands in 1995. in the middle of the yugoslav wars, the hager originally decided that bombarding beyond the 200 meter radius of a military target was outside the bounds of reasonable error. it was only after they appealed the ruling that the hague determines that 200 meters was in fact too strict. and so the creation generals were led off the hook,

despite the fact that they had ordered the bombings of civilian populated areas up to 700 meters away from military targets. the appeals chamber unanimously found the child chamber erred in concluding that all artillery impact size located more than 200 meters from a target deems legitimate, served as evidence of unlawful attacks. the trial chamber early in fighting hillary attacks ordered by mister toby and mister markets were unlawful. so russia is being accused of a war cry after causing collateral damage 70 meters away from what it says was a military target, but western back to potential war criminals get away. scotch free for bombing civilians, 700 meters away. not only are the double standards, glaringly obvious here, but it also begs a couple of questions. why in the world would ukraine place military infrastructure that close to a shopping mall? and why was the mall allowed to be open in the 1st place unless the authorities

were trying to use civilians as human shields? washington could mine the yellow sea and pearl river delta to bring basing it to the negotiation table in the event of a conflict with china. that's according to us navy commander victor. do know the united states must find a means of disputing chinese see control the u. s in the pacific command should aggressively pursue offensive mining capabilities to use in the yellow sea and pearl river delta mining. these 2 key waterways, which strike at a known chinese vulnerability in a winning essay for a naval mine warfare contest. victor do now claims mining the key economic regions of the yellow sea and pearl river delta would allow the us to buy time and space for a counter attack that's in the event of beijing. launching a conflict through surprise and deception. however, many think such a tactic would do little but further infuriate china with which tensions have

recently grown due to disagreements on u. s. military support for i want and the rise of china and developments in the asia pacific region are among the major issues being discussed at the ongoing nato summit, where australia, japan, new zealand and south korea are participating at the leader level for the 1st time . really, we discussed us china relations with former us marine bryan berlin, who stressed that any suggestion of violence against china by washington has to be seen as a sign of desperation. the measure of desperation, when the united states is talking about resorting to violence with nuclear armed china, it seems like they have run out of ideas. they don't have any other way of solving these problems. so resorting to violence, it's a very reckless and seems desperate alternative to a real solution,

a real viable solution. this is a holdover of western imperialism. that spanned generations are in a new era. they should be trying to readjust their societies to play, construct a role amongst all other nations. instead, they insist on imposing themselves upon all other nation. china has many, many ways to respond to this no, terribly, economically diplomatically. i think the united states should not underestimate what china can do in response to looking for new methods to punish russia. leaders of g 7 countries have urged china to exert fresh pressure on moscow in an effort to stop in military operation in ukraine as russia, as waging it's unjustifiable unprovoked in illegal war against ukraine. we call on china depressed russia to immediately and unconditionally withdraw its troops from ukraine. g 7 leaders have discussed of ukrainian crisis proposing various ways to

stop you. russia cooperation in the energy sector. the day before the summit, china's president, harshly criticized the west sanctions against russia, saying that they were an effort to weaponized the global economy. we heard from european studies, director at redmond university who says western countries are trying to complicate china. russia relations. the logic over there, he said when i made a statement, not to you from china, not john this time since that time she has not worked. so if there cannot impulse russia to give up that wheel and then old talk in time. so this put in a very difficult situation. how do we want to divide to china and russia relations? and even on the ice age china, tennis science data rush are also predatory. we are permanent member or united security console. so the sanctions actually, according to so called the dinner assembly of

a un actually retreat and not to the legal organ to impose sanction to any certain state. the sanctions actually according to the western domestic law, which way you can enforce on those are in status. you join the sanctions according to your domestic. it'll also be how that the tiny thinking that you i know you join my site. the thing about it i cite history. ready for your support, russia, so it's not the case to the half of the world preparation not to join the sanction against the russia, including india, senior us officials have traveled to venezuela on the quiet, in an effort to bring home detained americans and rebuild relations with the south american oil giant, a meeting between officials received a little coverage and was only mentioned during an awards ceremony hosted by

president nicholas memorial, who has previously been black both by the united states. that i see be and know it's an important delegation that arrived in venezuela. they're working to continue talks initiated on march 5th to continue the bilateral agenda between the u. s. and venezuelan governments. the relations between the 2 countries began to deteriorate rapidly in 2018. when the u. s. refused to recognize the reelection of president nicholas madeira washington, instead referring to opposition leader one guido, as the legitimate president, venezuela was also excluded from this month. the summit of the americas, which was held in los angeles. however, with oil prices on the rise due to western sanctions against russia, washington has been forced to make overtures to its rival. earlier this month, the speaker of the house, nancy pelosi could no longer remember who one quite was the person that you recognize the leader democratic leader in minutes. it is not here. what do you

think about what long wait here? by whom? why, why don't we take this message back prior to washington, and i can sanctions against caracas. venezuela was one of us biggest oil suppliers, but since they're in position in 2019 imports from the country have almost declined to stagnation point. however, if 50 percent jump in oil prices and the worst inflation in the u. s. in years appears to be leading to a shift and it's policy, vice chair of the libertarian national committee in the u. s. are involved. i think the current crisis has forced the us to realize that anti venezuela, the sanctions have not worked. i think there's 2 things. first, there's a sort of self created shortage over here. when you create sanctions, other countries,

you end up punishing just normal people in those countries and you end up punishing yourself oil things and are hurting american as much as they're hurting anybody else. so 1st, this is literally punishing yourself for somebody else is bad for somebody else and bad action. but the 2nd thing is, i think americans and even the american government is starting to realize that sanctions are unnecessary to prove the utter failures of socialism. venezuela has the largest confirmed oil reserves in the world and due to their just sheer incompetence had been struggling. the problem with putting sanctions on venezuela. is it a let people say it's not the socialism, but rather the sanction by lifting all things and opening complete trade. we can put this to a fair experiment and see can socialism work? and if not, let's get it out of it as well as striking argentine truckers furious ab price hikes on the fuel have brought traffic in both areas to

a standstill by blocking one of the city's major arteries, now the truckers considered essential workers just months ago have gone from receiving a free fuel allowance to paying prices that have doubled in recent weeks. please try to stop the drivers from entering the city center. so instead they brought gridlocked to the capital. highways authorities in 16 provinces have chosen to rash fuel to 20 leaders per vehicle, framing supply or non existence. so that does it for me? i will be back in just under 36 minutes with another full and fresh look snoozed with us watching national ah ah! with

ah no one. no sir. no, no. admiral, who are job? no, no. what door? more shrill than what they should end up. unit 731 was a unique organization in the history of the world. what they were trying to do was to simply do nothing short and build the most powerful and most deadly

biological weapons program that the world had ever known. a progression issue or sure, doug did that. they're not eligible. no new son, new rochelle. he one more mom, you know, margaret thought this is meant nguyen from all one i've, i've been there and i've got to learn much sale. i got ya. i got on monday, i wish to know about julie whole knew he didn't or gotten more polished enough jr. let's i had to put all the sco mother and all it buddy bill. could you go out or cows? nice. oh boy. good to go or. oh, what the on this the wow. she my a new other. i'm all i can send more on all said mom. good student. i don't,

the jojo, i'm up. i'm all put them out that they give us a call to talk to richard a, a with a ford edge that also the situation issue. somebody over there,

both those bud zimmer with a lot of video with luck out of you up for you was up with the an idea raise, you know, that way. i don't mind where sanctions on russia are distorting and damaging the global economy. consumers all over the world are experiencing higher prices, ban shortages. at the same time, most of the global south has little interest in the west campaign against russia. and in the long run, they benefit from a world economy in transition. awe

. on november, the 3rd 1945, just a month after the war ended, the u. s. joint chiefs of staff receive report number 3 to 9 and select 20 targets to attack in the soviet union with nuclear bombs. the time was right. does the u. s . s. i was devastated by well, it either states last about 400000 people. had the brits last less than the americans did. and the soviet suffer. 27000000 deaths with john kennedy gave us american universities commencement address it back to 63. he

said that what the soviet suffered of world war 2 was the equivalent of the entire united states. east of chicago. have you been destroyed? mm. initially the plan to attack the u. s. l was code named trojan over time it evolved into pincher bush, lego crankshaft, half moon, coke wheel off tackle. and sherry idea, december 19th, 1949 saw the adoption of the best known plan to wipe out the soviets operation dropshot, date of attack. january. the 1st 1957 mm . the plan outlined the complete annihilation of the u. s. s. under the democratic guise of liberating the nations from communism that those very nations would be wiped out along with communism.
