so here is saying, and the only thing that i can wish through a european union is to overcome the current difficulties. no one is interested in you any and seeing you're going through any cries. and i would like to with the countries that insist those 2 political pretty lives on building policies depending on the national in trash who do not want to lose their national identity. where you are calling for the 3rd legion or tradition, including the traditions on how people raise their children and families. i really hope that these, the fair desired matron desire will prevail and will be respected as that's the main thing now. so placebo, madam said, thank you. we are ending the press conference. ok,

what you just watched? there was a press conference after a meeting between russian foreign minister sir g. a lab, rob and his hungary and counterpart peter c or c r t l. and to give you just a bit of a rundown of what they explained. first lab rob and the hungarian foreign minister spoke a bit live. rob said that he, that russia was, will continue to be dedicated to cooperating with hungry despite the fact that western western sanctions are aiming at punishing russia. he said that it's he also touched upon the fact that it's dangerous to continue to flood ukraine with weapons . this was another thing that rushes foreign minister spoke quite a bit about, and he spoke about the unfortunate situation. the key of military is targeting civilians in the ukrainian conflict, specifically the people that they consider to be their own people. we also heard after lab rav the hungarian former foreign minister spoke, and he said that he wants to make sure that hungarian homes are properly heated for

the next winter. and to do that, he said his country needs to buy russian gas. there's no other option. and that's not despite the fact that the long darien foreign minister also wants to see an end to this ukraine conflict, but this should not drive the world into partisan camps. he said that would be against hungry national interests. afterwards, journalists did ask the to foreign minister as questions, and there were a couple of interesting things that russian for foreign minister survey live. rob said he spoke a bit about how the current situation in the european union is one in which brussels wants to dictate its political agenda to it's meant to each member states above the national interests of the states. and this is a situation that, that live rav does not view positively. he said, for many years, also, russia has tried to build good relations with the european union, not hostile once,

and to a certain degree. this has been successful, but he actually said that brussels has been dealing with russia in an arrogant way . he said that one of the major examples of this is the fact that once the minsk agreements were agreed to these were agreements done years prior. before rush a special military operation to try and come to a peace agreement in the ukraine. don boss conflict when the after these minced protocols were agreed to ukraine continually disregarded them and the european union did absolutely nothing to stop that. even recently, the former ukrainian president, petro poor cinco said that he, at that point, had no desire to actually abide by those agreements. and he elaborate ended his statement to him in response to the questions by the journalist saying that russia does not want europe to be in crisis. but he hopes to see a future of a european union dictated by the national interests of its members states rather

than by dictates from brussels. so that's basically a rundown of what was talked about at this press conference. but we're going to go on to our next new story. it's year italian prime minister mario drugs, he has resigned after the country. after the countries ruling coalition government fell apart over a t vote. the political crisis in rome has stoked fears of further instability across europe. as ortiz, rachel marston explains, johnny has one foot out the door and the other on a banana peel since last week, when he 1st offered to resign over his crumbling coalition with left and right leading populous parties. telling president sergio much out ala initially refused dragon's resignation. but this time, it looks likely. so what brought him down? ultimately, the populace left fivestar movement druggies largest coalition partner objected to the government's decision to send weapons to crane particularity, while economic concerns at home took a back seat. they abstained from the confidence vote along with former prime

minister silvio berlusconi center right populist for as a tally a party and former deputy prime minister mateo sal weenies populous right lega party italians are upset that the government has spent its time fiddling while rome burns. so to speak, no one of the phone. mm hm. and then again, i didn't expect this. it's a big surprise for everyone. this change leaves this whole stumble. i think italians will now vote less enthusiastically. there will be few people at the polls and less facing government institutions. they are all responsible. we are coming to a disaster. i don't know the consequences for italians. i am wary because it is not the best development for us at the moment. unfortunately, we do not have competent people who govern us, but we would have preferred drago to remain with this governmental it apart from dragged his name. it is necessary to have a strong government because it is a critical moment for our economy and europe's economy study. so we're hearing echoes, they're of the same frustration of citizens in france,

britain and germany for whom life has only become more expensive and difficult as a result of their ukraine policies, particularly their sanctions on inexpensive russian supplied european energy which are proving costly for the average citizen in their daily life, just to day, for example, european central bank announced an interest rate increase for the 1st time in 11 years of point 5 percentage points. there seems to be a confidence among populist right leaning parties in italy that they have a decent shot at power and scoring an electoral win on the rebound after druggies unforced errors. they're certainly a populace when that's building across europe and sweeping aside longstanding establishment figures. and rather the knowledge that they've fallen out of step with what the average citizen wants of them. that is to focus on domestic problems and prioritize the interests of their own citizens. first and foremost,

and correct course, some still think that it's all russian present virus prudence fault that populace with a more non interventionist and more cooperative foreign policy approach are gaining momentum. this guy, mateo sal vini has just contributed to bringing down the drug government in italy, and now hopes that a new election will bring him to power. corks are popping in the kremlin. the russian foreign ministry place the italian political drama in context to day a strictly domestic one. russia has always adhered to the principle of non inter in, in the affairs of sovereign states. we would advise european politicians to look for the causes of their internal crises in their own mistakes and unprofessionalism . it's hard to see how the western establishments approach it, blaming putin for western leaders, inability to focus on doing the work required at home to fix pressing domestic problems while digging their countries into an economic whole over ukraine is going to win them the hearts and minds of their own people,

ukraine's president has criticized the latest e u sanctions against russia, saying they're not strong enough. that's after european countries failed to agree on further restrictions on russian oil and gas imports. i'll let you all and then describe this is not enough and i frankly tell my partners about it. i see russia must feel a much higher price for the war so that it forces it to seek peace. we see how erroneous was the policy of some old leaders of european countries who made your apostage to gas supplies from russia. you know, wait a minute. however, and european union measures aimed at restricting russian energy imports are bringing more divisions among the blocks. members, as spain rejects brussels proposal to cut gas consumption by 15 percent on until next spring, with some official saying they are ready to defend european values, but spanish families will not suffer gas or electricity cuts in their homes. this also comes as the hungarian parliament on tuesday passed a resolution giving national parliaments the ability to veto any you wide

legislation. and in the latest attempts to get more military aid from the west, ukraine's 1st lady has addressed us lawmakers asking them to provide more weapons to kias troops with them hired and i'm those are, but those are your help is very strong. i, well, russia kills america. saves lives. i am asking for weapons, weapons that would not be used to wage war, but to protect our home and the right to wake up alive in that home. sure, i'm asking for air defense systems that will stop these missiles from killing our people, killing our children right in their strollers. over one comes in a growing concerned that weapon sent to ukraine are ending up on the black market. earlier the head of interpol warns that criminals in europe and elsewhere are getting their hands on some of the guns that use law enforcement agency has echoed those fears and says that weapons are already being trafficked from ukraine to organized crime groups. meanwhile, canada has reportedly admitted it has no way to track the weapons. it's sending to

ukraine, global policy research, or george muley says it's washington that wants to keep fighting, no matter what the cost. it is a clear case of things, but he's a real boy, is not the one who's calling the shots. the wonderful in the shop is the united states. the united states is essentially given the landscape a blank check, telling him you go on fighting, you go on, bellowing and yelling. i will supply you with all the weapons that you want. and the europeans who have not resisted all the americans entreat, is ready to go over the cliff. i mean, they are destroying their own economies. they are not able to withstand this coming economy crash. why the united states is just pulling the strings in the background and they're ok. i'm in america suffering. anything like the way the europeans is suffering, the lens get off this dog or his cast. we need to address the congress. busy

or from congress would be very happy to do so. it's always been obvious that the only reason that the us is sending weapon rate in the ukraine is to inflict as much pain as possible on russians. giving them these weapons. they know they're going to be used against that. it is like they say, oh, we told you grandma not to use them against the russians or against russians on russian territory. one of course, these weapons are going to be used against rather than russian 30. everybody knows that this is ridiculous and pretend that this isn't going to happen. and ukraine cubes, army has reportedly attacked a munitions depot in the southern person region, currently under the control of russian lead forces. local media outlets have said there was a huge explosion after the strike. meanwhile, and on boss ukrainian army has stepped up. it's showing a civilian infrastructure,

striking residential area in the city of done yet. several apartment buildings have been completely burned down as a result of the attack. we spoke with a witness of the showing. what generation should you? yesterday we went out, 3 of us were sitting here on the street, and suddenly they started shilling. we jumped back into the entrance and looked out . there was a fire burning with thick smoke billowing out. firefighters came and began to put out the blaze, but it took them a very long time. about 3 weeks ago, apartments in this building completely burned on the 5th and 6 floors. can you imagine our lives are being ruined because of this? no one knows when this will end. it's really frightening. this is the 2nd war i'm living through. the 2nd and in the neighboring lugens people's republic, the ukrainian military has so far failed in attempts to reclaim territory recently taken by russian lead forces. key of troops have now resorted to a fresh round of shelling, hitting some civilian areas. as archie is more read gas,

do you have reports from the scene. across the dom bus russian arma, troops criss crossed the roads leading to and from the front lines, helicopters and attack aircraft weez, endlessly overhead, sometimes with a wave, for the troops below, ah, with changes to tactics and objectives, the makeup of forces here is ever in flux units are rotated in them to out arrest than rearmament, specialized equipment. and the aba answer, the cool when and where they needed to, very close, i would say to the front lines, and we've had again found that bmt terminator. what of russia's latest machines on the front lines we've been asked by the crew not to show where this is not give

jail location to, to potential adversaries as the ukrainian side for these set or something of a hub for these vehicles in their cruise for the purposes of propaganda, the terminator specializes in protecting tanks by suppressing anti arma capabilities and harassing enemy infantry. it has proved its worth how we find ourselves again in bella got up. after a series of failed counter attacks against it, ukrainian forces have been blindly shelling the town. it has served no purpose other than angering the local population, who weren't fans of ki, have in the 1st place, specially milan, literally a former, a leader is really what each school lee about. and i got a meeting that i thought my grandmother, she came along with that on his facebook,

when like when you have stella in st. what says lucy custody? this particular flag, the hammer and sickle is older than most of us. it has been, were valentina since the 1970s. it has become a symbol for pro russian ukrainians. not because they support who want to return of communism, but because it is their heritage and because ukrainian nationalists despise it. that, that, that the flock at this, at the mushroom movers, we're not unique. we're actually excited with e. i knew it enough that ancestors i don't think you feel really valuable that he is. i can tell from the florida with i mean i still behind my bill effect. sure it might be in you as a little he, he talia, will read yet the only empirical threat, while valentina and tanya assistance when they have passed these flag onto russian soldiers here, who are

a 3rd of their age to carry the flag onwards. valentina has worked as a school teacher for half a said tree, and she is convinced that what keys did to her community will be avenged on years yet. there's a catch him up with john's too. not that busy and catcalls voice is school, but that wiley was musical. she is in panama. yes. like ideally, fluid, you put out any anybody. some rattler federally aletha, almo, 13, should thin 50 india to dump really with the youth with nearly caught you to walk. you, through a spring, you might get some miles an hour. okay. so my scenario level neurons. and yet that money ran, can you didn't, you want to say it, ms. smith can navigate laughing unless you just missed school or you thought him

talking him living with valentina, his flag is now a bother of the 80th gods. tank regiment recently decorated ordered by putin himself. but bravery and heroism. they have promised that these flag will fly wherever these conflict takes them more. i'd gasdio ot from the la guns people's republic us treasury department has called on western countries to agree on a limit for prices of russian oil imports by the end of the year. but moscow says it will not sell it's crude oil on the global market unless it can turn a profit. if these price is being discussed or lower than the production costs, russia will not insure the supply of this oil to the world market. we will not work at a loss. the controversy comes as joe biden is pushing a green agenda on the in the u. s. which is expected to lead to further cuts in american fossil fuel exports to the already shorten shortage stricken you american

journalists. manila chant explains, speaking outside of a former coal plant, turned wind power project over in somerset massachusetts. u. s. president joe biden call all the climate change a code read for humanity. he promised to take executive action to combat the climate crisis, but has so far stopped short of saying that he would declare this, a state of emergency climate changes emerge. and the coming weeks i'm going to use the power i have is prison. to turn these words in a formal official governor to the appropriate proclamations rejected word and regulatory power, little a, although many of his allies in congress are urging him to do so. because this would unlock dozens of presidential powers available to him to take sweeping at real meaningful action to help get the, the u. s. to net 0,

carbon emissions by the year 2030. now those powers would include things like halting the 2015 obama era crude oil exports. the u. s. up until 2015 for many decades did not export crude. obama reversed all of that by declaring a national emergency bite and could also put a stop to offshore drilling and force manufacturers to ramp up production on electric vehicles and other green energy related products. now this is all coming. as congressional talks fell apart, after joe mansion, the democrat senator from west virginia is refusing to vote along party lines. the senate is split 5050 right now and his vote is greatly needed for budget reconciliation and a very untimely explosion that shuddered. a liquid nat gas plant in texas, the free port ellen g plant accounts for

a whopping 20 percent of the u. s. l n g processing, and 70 percent of that goes to europe and great britain. now that catastrophe has resulted in about a 1000000 tons of last l. n g for europe. but it's the issue of us crewed exports. that's garnering joe biden, a lot of criticism on the international level. that's because america, as you allies are facing stiff energy shortfalls. and was relying on those u. s. export to help them move away from russian crude or russia. natural gas dependency now bite has been criticized as not a good friend to europeans as the threat of a cut off of american crude looms. as biden begins to yield to activist here, state side, a former school teacher is expected to be declared india's new president,

after steaming ahead in this week, selection votes are still being counted across the country with the final results due later on thursday, archie contributor r t chico reports from new delhi, the ruling party, the b j. b stand today, drop would be what more is not just a school teacher who has risen to this position and really soon be elected probably in a couple of 5. the results will be announced. but she is also going to be the 1st driver to hold this position, the highest office in the country a besides that she has served as the governor all which is in india. and she also is huge. it got to be you know, really not of her because she not only is a tribal coming from a poor family but also says maybe woman should that also use a lot of her to her got to do. the 2nd candidate was contesting. be

position for president of india is the actual to not who was union minister actually in the ruling party, that is the b g, b. but he switch size and now is the opposition scanned to be well, looks like about this one. this is going to be reading this thing because since drop would be much more is a tribal leader. she really most likely all. so some of the woods from the opposition side because some of the opposition parties cannot afford to upset the tribal woods. there are around change clothes shoes. the tribe was in the country that just said, you know, 100000000 people. and this is the growth service stage and you can get it off india and therefore misconduct. this is going to be very, very significant. and also talk about all the fact that the b, b,

we just seen as guns of a to party and many, or we could say that it says aggressive guns away you political force has rule and that actually is going to do for the preventative is going to follow women, not only in the social sped, but also the political expense. in fact, it has increased the budget. quad tribal by c for some compared to the previous government. in a couple of hours, we really india, we'll see a bus driver and lead of becoming b friends didn't or india the bullet surprise board has refused to resend the awards that handed out to leading mainstream media outlets for their reporting on the russia gate scandal. that's despite the fact that all of the allegations of

donald trump's collusion with russia proved to be false, as ortiz, caleb, and explains. does independent media exist in the united states? that's a question we keep coming back to the pulitzer prize board has come out in their own defense. speaking up and saying they were right to give a prize to the washington post and the new york times for reporting a story that wasn't actually true. the long ago debunked russia gate hoax, donald trump demanded they review this award after the allegations against him failed to hold any water. these inquires prompted the pulitzer board to commission 2 independent reviews of the work submitted by those organizations to our national reporting competition. both reviews were conducted by individuals with no connection to the institutions whose work was under examination, nor any connection to each other. the separate reviews converged in their conclusions that no passages or headlines, contentions or assertions in any of the winning submissions were discredited by

facts that emerge subsequent to the confirm of the prizes. no facts were wrong. well, our review came up with some pretty different conclusions. here are some facts that were indeed discredited. let's start with this phone records and intercepted call show that members of donald j. trump 2016 presidential campaign and other trump associates had repeated contacts with senior russian intelligence officials in the year before the election according to for current and former american officials. this was debunked by james comi, then f b i, director and his testimony before congress. he concluded that this wasn't true. now he's no fan of donald trump and the f. b i. agent who opened the probe also agreed . we are unaware of any trumps advisors engaging in conversations with russian intelligence. officials at washington post reported that general michael flynn was acting as national security advisor met with the russian ambassador and promised the russian ambassador that when trump came into office,

the obama heiress sanctions would be lifted while the transcripts of michael flames . conversations with the ambassador over the phone came out, and there was only one mention of sanctions. one of the problems him on the measures that have been announced today is that now f s b in grew a sanctions a sanction. and i asked myself, does it mean that the united states isn't willing to work on terrorist threats? yeah, yeah. now this is just the tip of the iceberg. these prize winning stories had facts, way off. why is the pulitzer board standing by them 3 years ago? the muller probe came up with a big fat, nothing burger. in addition to that, it's now been proven that hillary clinton approve the spreading of fake news about russia. gate for political reasons. pulitzer board had an opportunity to save its credibility by withdrawing and award for those who reported these stories that were not actually accurate. however, they failed to do so. it looks like mainstream liberal media just wants to tell the

democratic party line 2 of the 3 most influential papers, at least historically the new york times. and the washington post are virtually democratic party, broad sheets, and the new section of the wall street journal liens in the same direction. nearly all television network and cable is a democratic party trumpet. the pulitzer board will not even release a public version of its review. and show how exactly they came up with the conclusion. that story is full of factual errors. we're still award winning journalism. this comes as trust for mainstream media among the u. s. public is sinking new polls indicate that only 16 percent of the u. s. public trust the newspapers and only 11 percent trust the tv news with awards being given out for fake news stories like this. that's hardly surprising. caleb martin r t new york attorney and conservative activist at martin says the post surprise

has lost its credibility because it panders to the democratic parties agenda. pulitzer board. i'm sure they say they undertook an investigation, but no one believes it. i mean, look, they, they, they gave those awards back at a time where the publisher was trying to reinforce the message that the new york times in the wash and post and the, and the laughter. democrats want to do. we know it was all a lie. so i, the polish her, it's either have to admit that it was a lie and they have to say, oh, we made a mistake, we were lie to, or they have to continue the lie. and so they decided to continue the lie. so the polish your board has made it so the pulitzer prize has 0 credibility, your time to the wash post. they're just the voice of the left and the democrats, and they, they are not telling the truth. ringback a lot of the time when the media lies and is caught over and over again, the public is going to trust them is one of the reasons why. the great moment we're in is we have the ability to look for other voices. we can look through social

media, we can look through other outlets to find voices. we trust because we can't trust the media. they lied to us to frequently. you're watching our t international more world news coming your way in just about 30 minutes. skaters will redeem good afternoon mister laugher, off you've just returned from one to revisit and now you're flying away on a trip. again, we have such an international isolation that you don't even have time to be at home . thank you for taking the time to meet with us between trips and it seems were of 2 minds when it comes to negotiating with ukraine. first we say it's outright impossible and the next we bring up the idea is something positive. when i say we, i mean our leadership on all levels from lawmakers to state officials, so our viewers and myself to keep asking ourselves, is there any point in talking to key or is it just part of the diplomatic decorum

stuff? nicholson was looked at this point. there is no point in negotiating with ukraine. ukrainian leadership actually came forward calling on russia to start negotiations . we went with it back then. we were very earnest about the entire process. but these 1st rounds of talks and bell roosters only serve to expose ukraine's reluctance to approach any matter seriously. back then we presented to them our assessment of the situation and said, if you're serious about it, then write your arguments down on paper and give us a proper document. so we knew what kind of deal you are looking for a variable. they gave us the document, which we supported by the way the president mentioned it when we were ready to sign an agreement, that would be in line with their own logic. we presented to them our own document. sure. which was let me stress that again for based on their guidelines on april 5th

.
