3:06 am
is it changing right now as well? that means we're about to get a lot of mud, a lot of snow. that means that these are shiny mines will be completely unnoticeable. and that also means that doctors at this, from a sensor will have a lot more work from on call for of our t done as the people's republic hungry is prime minister compared you anti russian sanctions to energy midgets imposing sanctions on an energy giant that says the european parliament earlier stated that hungry can't be considered a full democracy arch, a contributor rachel marston takes us through the details. european leaders haven't stopped talking about how much they want ukraine in the u. and how keith is virtually the embodiment of european values. just this week, you commission president ursula vander line said during his swing through keep that quote, the essential process is well on track. it's impressive to see the speed, the determination, the preciseness with which you are progressing. she also said that you create needs,
3:07 am
quote more business, more income through the you were talking here about the country recently considered to be the 2nd most corrupt in europe and ranked 122nd out of a $180.00 countries on transparency internationals, corruption index on par with zambia galvan and mexico. now compared that posture with the e parliament's motion approved this week in a 433 to 123 vote. adopting a report concluding that hungary has become a quote electoral autocracy. meaning that european values and democracy were under systemic threat in that country. we deeply regret that the lack of decisive action on the part of the european union has contributed to the breakdown of democracy and the rule of law and fundamental rights and hungary making the country a hybrid regime of electoral autocracy, hungary as not a democracy, it was more urgent than ever for the parliament to take the stance, considering the alarming rate at which the rule of law is backsliding and hungary,
3:08 am
the report sites, a range of issues from academic and religious freedom to minority rights, but also judicial and electoral independence. the report could have literally been written about ukraine, yet the you and it would have been flattering yet the you desperately wants to shoehorn ukraine into the you. it comes at a high cost, but our freedom, the international peace order and democracy is priceless. you now can see that it could come to an end with victory for freedom and democracy. ukraine's problems haven't gone unnoticed, including by western mainstream media and human rights organizations like amnesty international members of ukrainian forces and paramilitaries, also subjected detainees to torture and other ill treatment and used to attain civilians as pawns for prisoner exchanges between the warring sides. credible allegations emerged of torture and other egregious abuses by ukraine's so called volunteer battalions, ada, and his off. last year he had his main political opponent, arrested,
3:09 am
and his assets seized by the state. at the same time's lensky shut down 3 of ukraine's most popular television networks, channels that not coincidentally, had criticized him. the e wants ukraine so badly that it has created a new european political community set to meet for the 1st time on october. first, kind of a kitty table of countries that aspire to e u membership. so if you crane and hungry face, the exact same criticisms except ukraine's are far worse with ukraine. of course, being worse ranked for its problems than hungry, which already passed the sniff tasks. well enough to get into the e in the 1st place. then why is the block drooling over ukraine while spanking hungry? it can't have anything to do with the fact that hungarian prime minister, victor, or bon is against sanctioning russia. and his forged ahead with new russian energy deals while the block cuts off its own supply, can it? it sees the brussels definition of democracy and european values,
3:10 am
however lofty they are, are synonymous with adhering to and promoting this global as to jetta. and when that particular box is text, everything else apparently takes a backseat. the head of nato's military committee has admitted that the alliance began planning to expand new rushes borders several years ago. the statement comes after nato leaders agreed on a significant build up of forces on its eastern flank by 2023. that's due to the ukrainian conflict. we're talking about the biggest over whole of our military structures. since 1949. the planning for that started several years ago, but now we're implementing it. the block plans to increase the number of high alert for forces on its eastern flank to more than 300000 soldiers in the near future. and nato countries have pledged to increase defense spending, as well as despite russian red lines demanding the block stop expanding to the east
3:11 am
and to exclude key of from the alliance. while ukraine is not a member of nato, the international military alliance has been a key player and it's ongoing conflict with russia. michael maloof, a former senior security policy analyst at the us secretary of defense, believes it was washington's decision to break the principle of nato non expansion towards rush. it's actually the united states was the one who was leading this effort, going back to the clinton administration to go against an agreement that bill clinton gave to, to, to, to russia. that it would not seek to expand. but all the while it was. and now we're seeing that nato is looking for a new agenda, and we saw it just very recently in their closing statements up there now. and not only including the arctic, but also china as something to keep an eye on. and russia has, had,
3:12 am
had made it clear this latest last december, in, in, in statements to the united states. you know, the state, i don't think the europeans would have done what they, what has now occurred if it weren't for the united states and the neo cons with neoconservatives within the u. s. government pushing, pushing, pushing this agenda and trying to take advantage of it. probably thinking that nothing whatever that russia would never do. what ultimately happens. meanwhile, protestors have gathered in paris to call for the resignation of the country's president and an end to the sanctions against russia that have seen a new energy prices skyrocket. we buy a poll that showed support for sanctions declining a demonstration called for mac smith removal. and for france to leave both un nato against sanctions and also against any rationing which is completely useless. and then from sanctions from the war, wage finding nature has been waging various was the decade and i have long wanted
