just after 4 pm here in the russian capital. and you're watching our t international. i'm donald quarter. welcome to the program. now our top story, 53 ukrainian prisoners of war, had been killed and 75 wounded in the shelling of a pre trial detention facility in the danielle people's republic. moscow was accused key of troops of intentionally targeting that site. a warning, the following images are graphic and may be disturbing to you. russia says the ukrainian military used american supplied high mars rocket launchers to bombard the daniel facility. 8 of its employees were also wounded in that attack. russians defense ministry says key of wants to deter more of its soldiers from turning themselves in missouri. lily's vocalized run a force, a large number of ukrainian soldiers are laying down their weapons as they know about the humane treatment of military prisoners by russia. this outrageous provocation was aimed at intimidating ukrainian soldiers and preventing them from

surrendering. this was on the call. what a get more on the story now we're going to go live to our correspondent in done yet from on culture of high there rama. now what else do we know about the attack at this point? well, i've just returned from his detention facility in the yellow. i've got here just outside of the city of the ned scans, i witnessed some truly horrifying scenes. jarda bodies, a barrett completely destroyed by artillery a shilling. now officials of the nest people's republic cars showed us some shell fragments and they claim they belong to an american supplies our high mars artillery system. and the strike occurred just after 2 o'clock in the morning as a all prisoners have been asleep at that time. and many of them were killed while there were sleeping as some of them us, some of the bodies of the prisoners that our witness had been burned beyond

recognition. ha, now, according to a local officials 0 once again. ah, they're saying that ukraine knew exactly where they were shooting, and let's take a listen to what they said in the night. and he said that ukrainian authorities insisted on using this place of detention. it was discussed previously said they knew perfectly well where the prisoners were being held and that's how they took the lives of their own soldiers. was the local glance to you in a blue, the ukrainian prisoners of war began to talk about the crimes they had committed on the orders of the ukrainian authorities. and after that they were attacked here. kiev took these actions to gag those soldiers who began to talk about what was actually happening here in don bass. now, the prisoners saw fall war that were a dancer facility belongs to belong to the various branches of the crate, an army. some of them belong to nationalists resolve battalions. some of them were

marines and others as well. and just recently interviews with some of those as of battalion national began as surfacing i here in done ask and they gave their own witness accounts or fall war crimes committed by them against the people of a dong boss, ukraine. however, officials and ukraine are denying that had anything to do with this strike against the detention the facility claiming his soul or russian provocation. however, this is not the 1st time i was at that detention facility. and i have to tell you that sir, of fighting there is to take him place constantly, but the detention facility itself had never been hit before. and this is the 1st time. now ukraine are also saying that they follow the rule of law. the rule of international humanitarian law and they never targets us civilians or prisoners of war. however, the reality on the ground is completely different as

a damascus being shelled on a daily basis. and in the last week alone, at least at 8 civilians, had been killed and 47 wounded in barnett's people's republic. or at that's archie's roman culture of reporting, live from the capital of the daniel people's republic. to get more on the story now we're going across live to john mark doogan, former us marine and geopolitical analysts to recently returned from don boss, thanks for joining us on the program. mark. hi, thanks for having me. so what's your reaction to the deadly shelling of this p, o w facility and danielle? russia said that it really could be a message to ukrainian troops who are still fighting and considering surrendering. what do you think about that? that's a very good possibility, but there's another possibility that i think that we need to consider. i had actually just interviewed a p o w and i'm not sure if it was that facility or not. but

a gentleman by the name of aiden ashlyn, and he was talking to me about his role in brokering weapons between the turk, between the ukrainian military and the kurds, american western weapons. and this is something maybe we need to consider is they want to shut these people up. now, interestingly enough, in, in, earlier july, july 15th, i was in touch with an american journalist who happened to contact me and she kept pressing me for the location of the prison where the p o w were being held. and i explicitly told her that i was not allowed to provide any of that information. so, you know, i think we need to start, i think we need to start investigating where this information came from. who wanted it and what, what they were looking to accomplish. well,

based on the one sided coverage we've already seen from the western media on this conflict, how do you think the mainstream media is going to react to this incident? if we're going to see a reaction at all, of course, we already know that they're going to blame russia. they're going to say it was some false flag attack. i mean, this is, this is crazy. you know, i mean, don ask is filled with russian people and russian officers in and friendly forces and they're absolutely not going to strike their own people. and you know, it, it, actually, it actually hurts russia cause that, that these p o w, 's were killed the, and injured because, you know, it is probably going to be an effective deterrent for ukrainian p w's to surrender in the future. and what would you say is the chance that this instance is going to

be investigated on an international level? ah, like fairly and impartially 0. but they'll call it investigation and they'll come to one conclusion. and they're going to say that it was russia that did it. i mean, i already know how the games played while also russia says that the bees us supplied high mars rocket launchers were used. and it's not the 1st time that these systems have reportedly hit non military targets. do you think the us and its allies are doing enough to keep track of how their weapons are being used by ukraine's military? they can keep track of how they're being used. they can even keep them from being sold to are to people outside of the ukraine, the military mean 3 quarters of the stuff that they're getting is being stolen, sold on the black market. and this isn't for me, this is from this from people that are serving within the ukranian

like like foreigners that are coming to ukraine and seeing what's going on. so this is their words that this stuff being stolen and you know, i know, i know personally i was in dumbass during one of the showings, few months ago in 3 schools had been hit. so yeah, they're not keeping track of anything. they don't care. i john mark dilbren, former us marine and geo political analyst. thanks a lot for joining us on the program. thanks for having me here directly ordered the distribution of video material that showed the murder of russian prisoners of war that's according to a member of the ukrainian neo nazi as a battalion who served in the units press service. a warning here, the man is a prisoner of war and may have spoken under duress. oh, sure. so before the 24th of february, even before the start of the war, we received an order from the presidents office to create an information campaign

with shock content on the brutal murders of russian prisoners of war. when the war started, we started monitoring ukrainian media and the information field, and we noticed that these videos began to appear. i think these instructions were not only given to us, but also to other military units or organizations. as i understand this information campaign was created to provoke and say war movements in russia. but this campaign caused a negative reaction worldwide because these are war crimes later, the order to suspend the campaign was given. i don't know who was specifically involved in this in our unit, but the videos as i understand were collected. and i know for sure that all the video materials, all the flash drives and hard drives were destroyed upon leaving as of style and pull me affordable. chun from his cut, the beginning of april at some point we were accompanied by as of fights as if he went to the north of boucher where we had to distribute medicine. so at some point we even stopped by the hanger. what we had to hand over a box of medicines for the as of unit. when we were in this hanger,

we saw literally 30 meters away from as of a caused drive, of which there were rushing soldiers within us to get out of the hang of fast than i had schultz fired at russian prisoners of war. as i saw how these prisoners of war was shut, the lower extremities. in fact, it was the 1st war crime than i personally saw would be. as soon as we saw this, we would have to immediately pack how things and leave it was very fast. when i was returning to the car from the passenger seat to leave, i had someone say, officer officer in russian. a more of the offices he once was immediately shelton, the head. or in fact the mom was executed. what good as i left the hanger, i saw this execution, you beveled off it when you with the u. s. economy as now in recession, that's according to the latest statistical data which shows the countries g, d, p, declining for a 2nd consecutive quarter this year. but the biden administration is in no rush to admit the economic downturn or accept responsibility for most economists. and

most americans have a similar definition of recession, substantial drop losses and mass layoffs, businesses shutting down private sector activities, slowing considerably. family budgets under immense strain in some a broad based weakening of our economy. that is not what we're seeing right now. when you look at the economy. the u. s. economy shrank once again in the past 3 months unofficially, signaling the start of a recession. i mean, that's simply how people define recession. if you look at the data, the gross domestic product of the united states shrank. and an annualized rate of point 9 percent in the past 3 months, after having decreased by an annualized rate of 1.6 percent in the previous court, that's 2 consecutive quarters of decreasing g. d p. in the united states. that

means that the united states, the world largest economy as entered a recession. however, high officials in the united states are reassuring us. that is not the case. here's what they said. that doesn't sound like research should be, i don't, i do not think the u. s. is currently in a recession, even if that number is negative, we're not in a recession. now, i will say that the textbook definition of recession is not, is not too negative quarters of g d p. the bike administration is reassuring us that everything is fine. as you heard the secretary of the treasury, janet yelena, she is saying that this isn't a recession, this is quote, a transition in which rose is slowing. a transition in which road is slow and she says, not a recession now. law, this is a similar thing in response to the issue of inflation. inflation in united states is that a 40 year high and we've been reassured by us officials. this is simply

a matter of transition. however, the inflation has continued. it has continued to be an issue, it's not simply a temporary issue of transition, it's continuing to go on. now at this point in response to this issue, inflation, we have the biden administration spending billions of dollars with a law that they call the inflation reduction act. of 2022. this is how americans responded to this deal. democrats just unveiled the inflation reduction act. someone please tell dems that tanking the economy with tax hikes and bad policy is a crappy way to tackle inflation. only the government could propose a bill to increase spending and call it the inflation reduction act. remember, they always named the bills the opposite of what they actually mean in any other business, this would constitute fraud and false advertising. so to combat inflation, the government is about to approve $750000000000.00 in new spending and calling it the inflation reduction act. spoiler alert, democrats,

new spending bill that they're calling the inflation reduction act will only increase inflation. now they saw a prices for just about everything are squeezing america's working families, as they're struggling to pay their bills, pay for necessities, and keep the households running amid the rising cost. at this point, we've seen the u. s. stock market tank, the s and p 500 is down by 15 percent home sales have slipped this year and consumer confidence is low. many are looking on and wondering if this could be yet another nail in the coffin of the by the administration. following biden speech in which he said he did not feel the recession in the us. the definition of recession on wikipedia was reportedly edited more than 40 times in less than 24 hours. the website later banned uter users from applying any changes to the page. referring to the previous edits as vandalism. wikipedia also warned that the current information

may be on reliable due to the ongoing invents. investment manager, mich fire steen says it's impossible to expect a solution from the same u. s. officials responsible for the current crisis. janet yolanda has been consistently wrong when she was the chairman of the fed and when she was on the board in the fed. now as a treasury secretary, the root causes of the problem are too much debt, too much credit to much leverage in too much money printing for 2 decades. coming, bite them. i think the recession started long before this g, d, p. net negative g d p for so you know, if they want to put lipstick on a pig, it's never going to turn into a supermodel a recession. we're in a recession, we've been in a recession. they can lie as much as they want. it wouldn't be the 1st time, so i don't know why anybody's shocked by that. inflation is that all time highs. you're not comparing like it like 980 s. if you use the same methodology, you calculate current inflation. now,

it's probably closer to 20 percent. what people are not talking about as well is the amount of debt that's been accrued during the negative interest rate years. so now you've got debt from the zombie corporations and there are a lot of them that can never be repaid. so you've got probably 6 trillion dollars worth of triple b in junk bonds that have to be refinance. so you will see a massive amount of defaults and bankruptcies that will cause the coming crisis. you know, she said, i think 2 years ago or 3 years ago will never see another crisis in a lifetime, right before me, she's been consistently want to didn't saying inflation is transitory. lation is transit toward the 6 months ago. so why would you believe people that are consistently wrong? the problem is we're going to the same people who created the problems for a solution and they have no solution. and we have no leadership. china's

president has warned the united states to stop playing with fire over taiwan as washington prepares to send its highest rank delegation to the disputed island in 25 years. that's just by beijing's repeated statements. that american involvement in china's domestic affairs is stoking tensions between the 2 countries. meanwhile, taiwanese servicemen have taken part in the annual military drill, simulating a foreign invasion. that's a, some us officials fear a potential armed conflict with china over taiwan. at the same time, other american politicians are pushing for greater involvement in the region, suggesting that the u. s. delegations visit to taiwan must go ahead. ortiz rachel blevins has the details. the united states appears to be moving forward with plans to send a delegation led by how speaker nancy pelosi to tie one next month despite a host of warnings from beijing that the move would be a red line for china. do we have repeatedly made it clear to america,

our stern position against us house speaker, nancy pelosi is potential visit to taiwan. if the us insists on going its own way and challenging the red line of china, it will surely be met with forceful responses. all ensuing consequences are completely borne by the us. however, when it comes to red lines issued by other countries, washington has shown that it has no problem ignoring them. after all, that's why it refused to give russia any kind of guarantee that ukraine would not become a member of nato. despite the impact the assurance could have had on using tensions . but even by himself isn't fully on board with polos, his plan. and it appears that the higher the chance of conflicts, the more the hawks and washington support the trip. we cannot back down the face of the chinese threats if they think they can threaten us into merely not traveling to taiwan. it might in fact incite them. and tell them to go, the jug dealer and taiwan is pelosi,

postpones or cancel the visit. it will be seen as the us climbed down in the face of chinese indignation and protest and an affront to our friends in taiwan. as the speaker of the united states house of representatives, you should never have to ask a foreign dictatorship or the state department for permission to talk to america's friends and allies. so why is the u. s. considering this move now in the face of continued for us from beijing, while there have been increasing reports of the vitamin ministration is concerned that china could be getting ready to move in and take taiwan in the coming month. the only problem, even the mainstream media reports have been for us to admit that us officials have no confirmation that china is actually planning such move. 6 however, there is now the fear that china could follow through on its threats and retaliate . if the u. s. proceed with this plan to send a delegation to taiwan next month. and so the brings midship continues to mouth, threatening a major conflict between 2 nuclear power as neither side shows any signs of backing

down. alright, well to get more on this, we're going, we're going live to our guest, brian berlin, former us marine and geo political analyst. thanks a lot for joining us on the program. thank you for having me. no problem. well, anyway, democrats and republicans, they usually find a lot to argue about, but it seems they've reached a consensus about antagonizing china on nancy pelosi trip to taiwan. what do you think that says? i think it says that u. s. foreign policy. it transcends the political, divides, it is driven by special interest that holds way over both the left and right in american politics. and if you study u. s. foreign policy regarding china specifically, you see this goes back decade says this desperate desire to encircle and contain china when, when they say contain they're talking about controlling and dominating china. and

there was president biden himself who said most recently that china will not surpass us on his watch. this has been u. s. foreign policy regarding china that stretches back to the into world war 2. well, what do you think we can actually expect to come out of this visit to taiwan by nancy pelosi? is it anything more than a p r stunt? or is it something more than that? do you think? i think it is a provocation, a reckless and unnecessary provocation. the united states is trying to go. busy china into reacting or i should say over reacting the window of opportunity for the united states to actually contain control china. it's close. and chinese military capabilities continued to grow. year to year the united states continues to retreat from its pep had gemini around the globe. so that they're thinking, the thinking in washington is now or never to try to provoke, i mean, this is a,

an extreme provocation against china. of course, right now we're living in a world where military tensions around the globe are higher than they have been in a very long time. so what do you think the goal of such a trip could be to risk a direct us confrontation with china? i think the united states, it's military, believes that this is the best time to have if there's going to be a conflict between the us and china, now's the best time. because as i said, as each year passes, chinese military capabilities catch up to the united states and eventually they'll surpass the united states in some ways they may already have. so the thinking is trigger a conflict now crippled chinese maritime trade. because the u. s. navy is still incredibly powerful and perhaps on the other side of this conflict,

although the us will take heavy losses, they will come out in a better position and, and be able to reassert themselves over china. and this is, this has been their goal for decades, and like i said, the window is closing, this is their last chance. while brian, if pelosi is visit, does go through to taiwan, what kind of concrete response do you expect from beijing? honestly i, china has been extremely patients. the leadership is incredibly smart and they know time is on their side and they know that if they just allow the clock to run out on us privacy around the globe, eventually they'll be in a position where they. ready can reunify taiwan entirely with the mainland as they can move forward with their sovereignty protected without ever having to go to war with united states. so i think they will try to do everything possible to avoid it . of course, publicly, they have to condemn that. that is a blatant violation of their sovereignty. but beyond that,

i think they're thinking long term, other than some sort of short sighted, you know, response that i think they're thinking long term. all right, former us marine and geopolitical analyst, bryan berlin, thanks for joining us on the program. thank you so much. and other news france has been asked to recognize its quote, colonial crimes. in cameroon, the african nations political parties won paris to apologize for the massacre of tens of thousands of activists prior to the country's independence in 1960, everything must be done so that camera no longer accept french gemini, willingly or by force. we take the opportunity to address to again wake the people of cameroon to the historical problem we have with france. this means we want to say settled a liabilities, all the crimes that france has committed in, cameroon. we have to put them back on the table. president microns recent trip to

cameroon has revived painful memories of a colonial past. from 1916 until 1900. 60 france destroyed villages and massacred entire populations while brutally suppressing a nationalist movement. during his visit, the french president announced the archives on colonial rule would be opened, and he called on historians to shed light on that tragic event. micron recognized that the past brought quote, painful and tragic moments to cameroon, as well. we heard from representatives from the african movement for new independence and democracy, and they say that microns visit is due to france, no longer being a major player on the global political stage muscles. yes, macros is coming to cameroon. first, because the wave of contestation of french had gemini and africa in general is well underway. and the french president is coming to try to see if it is still possible for them to master the wave of protest of the african peoples. we believe that it is a legitimate right to the camera,

rooney and people that france acknowledges its crimes. the colonial powers have always lived from the plundering of africa's resources, which is not new. and that is why these colonizing powers are cautious when some one else comes to look at their interest. but it is a revolution that is underway. nothing will be the same as before. the african peoples will emancipate themselves. the russian minister for his part, also comes to trade with african states. he too, is in his role to come and negotiate market shares for his country. but it is not useless to note that the african revolutionary movement has better relations with russia than with france. and mister shaw, while we know that during his 1st term he had shunned cameroon. it is a surprising, a new thing on the part of those westerners who thought they had domesticated a space, which is considered the french meadow. he comes to the continent because there is geo politics in the world that no longer puts france on the dominant point in the space that was completely subject to it are subjugated. do not forget that since the start of russia special military operation in ukraine. there are dynamics in

terms of global geo politics that force westerners, led by the u. s. and nato, to reconsider their previous positions with regard to certain regions and countries . he was therefore forced to come to a country that was cameroon, classified as the heart of french africa, to renegotiate with president via on how we can reconnect to things being as before, but unfortunately, times have changed the visit of sir gale of rav as a very good thing because he participates in multi polar diplomacy. we are tired of unipolar diplomacy, but especially of this desire of neo liberal capitalism to completely crush the peoples who have only expressed a sacred principle that is in the rights of the un. that is to say, the right of people to self determination. germany's plan to transfer weapons to other european countries, which would in turn supply ukraine is facing hurdles you allies are blaming each other for protracted talks and delays. and rushes. foreign ministry spokeswoman has said that countries supplying ukraine should be held responsible for war crimes

committed by key of troops with western weapons for the war. crimes committed by the cranium armed forces, nationals, battalions, the killing of civilians, women, the elderly, and children, the destruction of civilian infrastructure, including bridges, e. u. sponsors should bear the same responsibility as to key if or she. maria's or harvard has also accused the e. u. of escalating the war by supplying even more weapons to ukraine with the west said to be ignoring the fact that many of its arms are being used by key to strike civilian targets. according to the latest official reports, both the e u and u. s. have sent over $10000000000.00 worth of military aids to ukraine. we spoke with some people in italy and spain, who believed that their government's actions are only exacerbating the crisis. diane novel, italy, as again in crisis from the political point of view. absolutely. we are not a country that can afford to support a war,

neither in economic terms nor in social and civil terms, our constitution repudiate war. i repeat it. i believe that we must develop actions to end the war, not to make a continue. i believe that european countries and my country, italy should not give ukraine more weapons. those of you, what i find absolutely scandalous is the enormous increase in the military budget in a situation of generalized crisis that we all find ourselves. a huge increase in the military budget, and this is to satisfy the wishes of nato bafflement. the e. u has been feeling the conflict for a long time. either. i know the history i have heard about what has been happening in ukraine since 2014 and neither. i know that don bass but lou ganske and all the territories where the russian speaking population lives, which has been suffering for 8 years. we're constantly bomb for jeff, and i don't think that the e u sending weapons to the country leads to conflict mitigation. once he had to get the list. i believe that trying to stop the war with.
