a to look so common ground. with these 411th grade, we learned that natural socialism, nazis were good. they were heroes of ukraine. our correspondent uncover is neo nazi propaganda and ukrainian school textbook says he travels to the city of sculpts in the countries for phone regions with nato admit it had been planning to expand its military presence along russia's border for years before the war. and ukraine began completely ignoring moscow's red line, a betrayal of the afghan people. that's how locals have branded us plans to

transfer $3500000000.00 of frozen afghan assets to a swiss bank. we hear from cool central bank with the decision of the us to transfer one part of that amount to a swiss bank is totally illegal according to international law. and not so happy birthday as the cia marks at 75th anniversary. we look at the agencies track, record of flaws and contract with just after 11 am here in moscow and you're watching r t international. i'm your host donald corridor. welcome to the program. now we start with the latest developments in ukraine where battles continue in the heart of region. he had previously announced it completely took over the city of coupons, claiming russian led forces had left the eastern part of the city. but fighting is reportedly ongoing and russian troops and are understood to continue to hold,

defend a defensive lines along the all school river, which runs through the settlement controlling the eastern part of coupons, amid battles following a ukrainian counter offensive in the region ortiz bore. i'd gazda of reports from behind the frontline in the cur, san city of scots, the russian national guard behind the front lines they wage a different kind of war. fresh intelligence has come in, a ukrainian nationalist part of a sleeper cell has given himself away. national guard sped that yet the go ahead. do you have anything illegal? know, stay down, hands behind your head, with hands up with some of the bay. they asked me to keep an eye on something back there by the gate. you know, what do you have if his mom,

i have no idea. i didn't even have a look at this is get a sapir a bit. these are our g, d, 5 grenades, 2 f, one grenades. also 210 rounds of 5.45 caliber ammunition. in almost every case, the excuse is the same. someone asked them to watch a weapon or a bomb cash for a couple of days. in almost every case, it turns out they live. ukraine is waging a massive terror campaign in areas is abandoned, who are lost here has opted for car bombings, assassinations, and tara almost entirely aimed at civilians. those ukrainians who dare side with russia. it can be a death threat, a bullet, a bomb, or a tactical massage. it's good dogs far from the front lines and of little military

value was recently targeted by a barrage of ukrainian torch. good me selves to who's shot down. one. wasn't this other? there was so long i was calling to let her know, but i will let you know sleep where. but if saying a push go, don't plenty of stella near lasonya. are you finding written one of us got lost. i didn't usually, if i forgot the thought in the by needful whitfield. but why didn't i do it for simulate? you're welcome to stick with the living. if i on the subject of abuse by, in the, from dr. for me, the steps that of when you're in the eyes of ukrainian nationalists, the locals, deadly seen, was to accept russian control. they adjusted to a new life. and for key f, that is unforgivable. ah, it may seem surprising with the school rather what was found here to be to misers

rushes argument that it had no choice but to act. schools were being turned into temples for radical nationalism. these are some of the textbooks that have been removed from the seroquel of ukrainian students. for example, here in these textbook, a 5th grade, the textbook, we learn that the, my dawn revolution was the right and just thing. and this was written by the people who were behind the my dad revolution. they went straight to the kids in another textbook. this is for 11th grade. as we learned that national socialism or nazis were good. they were heroes of ukraine. here you have own bach, propaganda, posters, ease with nazi collaborators. yet kids are taught that they were heroes of ukraine, that russia has always been a drag on ukraine and has always abused ukrainians. we learned that amongst okay, which was

a he were of you crate. these zonati collaborator behind the deaths of thousands of jews in, in just one instance that has been verified and proved you also found the number of coursework. so essays written by students. 11th grade, this again, they were made to rise as a about step on by better step on but better. who is people not only collaborated with nazis, adulthood, them their help put in money. since lou massa could $60000.00 to push civilians to make way for pure blooded ukrainians, that's of course includes indoctrinating the young pumping them full of hate before they know any better. but last is now the past and a studio mythology that so we'll keep it all in an archive. we won't destroy the books, they will be kept anela museum. we will replace them with textbooks. natasha has already started to supply and i'm sure there will be more supplies in the future.

the school somehow kept its heritage the museum here choose history as it was a modified by political trends and nationalist dogma. ukrainians that russians learning and living side by side in peace and harmony for generations. but i will her show you something as we from here a little girl. 3rd, 2nd read was up to our driver and gave him these picture her and the soldier and the rainbow. life here is going to be very, very different. more i'd gasdio ot from scott duff's till so region nato has revealed, it was planning to increase its military presence on russia's borders. years before the conflict in ukraine broke out. that's despite moscow's warnings to the alliance,

not to cross its red lines. we're talking about the biggest overhaul of our military structures since 1949. the planning for that started several years ago. but now we're implementing it with more on how nato reneged on its promise not to move one inch to the east tiers. ortiz fiorella, isabel nato, is at the fence alliance. they said, however, it turns out the blog had planned to expand its presence eastward towards russia's borders. years ago, long before the current conflict began and ukraine, it seems nato's defense chiefs didn't hold back, emphasizing a need to sustain and increase allied support to ukraine. the addition of finland and sweden and highlighting that nato will back ukraine for as long as it takes with one collective priority. collectively,

we must deny russia the possibility to change today's rule based international order. yet if you look at nato's official policy with russia and the promises from western politicians, things read a little different. nato enlargement is not directed against russia, nato, as a defensive alliance. every country that joins nato undertakes to uphold its principles and policies. this includes the commitment that nato does not see confrontation and poses no threat to the russian federation. we set out to build a good relationship with russia. if we maintain a presence in germany, that is a part of nato, there would be no extension of nato's jurisdiction for forces of nato, one inch to the east. it appears that the west is peaceful words have it exactly followed their actions as russian president vladimir putin pointed out, back in february. them when we have promised that they would not push nato's infrastructure eastward, even one inch every one is well aware of that. they said one thing,

and they did another, as we say, in our country, they cheated us. they deceived us, and put in isn't the only one. many western analysts than journalists have long admitted to nato's arrogant and toned death policy towards russia over the last quarter of a century. warning that continued expansion eastward would not end well. it would be extraordinarily difficult to expand nato eastwood without that actions being viewed by russia is unfriendly. even the most modest schemes would bring the alliance to the borders of the old soviet union. and what have these actions of expanding eastward actually accomplish for the west other than higher energy cost and a potential dark winter? well, looks like european nations have rapidly angered their own citizens into mass protests against nato and its disastrous economic consequences. ah.

so all nato nations promise not to cross russia's red lines, promise not one inch east, and promise that they pose no threat to russia. a detailed paper trail of their options shows the complete opposite. their most recent admission vindicates russia, but also shows that the block hasn't been transparent. and that pompous attitude has not done them any favors economically or with their own increasingly outrage populations that claim that nato is crossing all of these red lines. just think about it. if it was reversed, the united states wouldn't tolerate it. not for a moment. nato has, has never been a defensive alliance. it has always been an alliance of aggression. people can just

look at a map of nato expansion, post cold war, and see that all it has done is expand toward russia's borders. the collective west had a choice. they were at a crossroads where they could have chose to begin to construct the relationship with the rest of the world. but instead they chose to attempt to assert themselves upon the rest of the world, including russia. nato expansion of the rushes borders is just one part of that story. we can see a western lead aggression unfolding all around the globe. all during these decades . the usaa set to transfer part of couples assets to a bank in switzerland. the central bank of afghanistan has condemned the decision as lee illegal simila had left the rightful owners of the frozen assets or the afghan people. yeah, we had this money for foreign trade payments. the decision of the us to transfer one part of that amount to a swiss bank,

establishing an institution there to disperse the money to hand it over to some private organization. setting their own rules for political purposes is totally illegal according to international law. how can they refuse to transfer that money to our central bank? this is a betrayal of the afghan people and the people's will and consent was totally ignored. and the afghan central bank was not consulted. we denounced c u. s. decision after another theory says it will not release money directly to an afghan institution as long as there is no, as there is no guarantee that civilians will benefit from it. when the taliban seized power and afghanistan, the u. s. froze around $7000000000.00 of the countries assets. it has since ordered that 3.3.5000000000 be used to fund litigation by 911 victims. in while afghanistan faces a severe humanitarian crisis on saturday, hundreds of afghans protested against the u. s. plan to send some of those assets to a swiss bank. demonstrators waived banners with slogans blaming america for the countries

. humanitarian crisis. also called for the immediate release of the assets and the prosecution of soldiers who committed war crimes and attempts that he gave. one of the americans have no rights to seize or $9000000000.00 and they have violated human rights and of canister. it is unfair if they don't give us our money back. we are a poor country and face a terrible situation due to our very low per capita income about america seized $9000000000.00 from us. and now they see they will transfer a 3500000000 to a sways bank. we're southern country under taliban rule, and our central bank is fully functional that we demand the united nations and other world bodies influence the united states. i want to transfer the money directly to our government can be spent on getting people during the last 2 decades, the americans did not serve our nation and they instead betrayed us by bombing our homeless and massacring our people at a large scale. they killed our children,

attacked our wedding parties and bomb our funeral, and we appeal to the united nations to convict american and british military generals and bring them to justice at our job or winning journalists. martin j says that the u. s. has imposed the harsh restrictions to gain leverage over the taliban . my think the case of the still the mother is just one more element of it. obviously the initiative defines taken ministration to transfer the funds to switzerland and hold the money in that account. if you'd like, short term, that the money is going to be transferred to the conditions, the rigor placed for the money to actually be transferred to african very strict indeed. they're playing the gym and they're also saying to the africans of tyler bond. look, let your central bank distances so politically from you let your central bank agree to a few conditions that were laid down. and then we'll let you have the money,

you know, and we will trust the central bank distributor. accordingly to the very, very desperate corners of the country, this is a way of controlling our country. this is a way of getting the taliban to itself in order. sunday, mark, 75 years since the creation of the main u. s. foreign intelligence agency, the ca, while us president joe biden praise the agency, is the bedrock of national security are corresponding ilia. katrinka takes a look at the c. i. a's often flawed and controversial track record. just how old is what supposedly the world's most powerful intelligence force. it may seem the c, i a should date back to the early years of the u. s. itself, but in fact, it's even younger than the man who's currently president. the agency only appeared after world war 2 and failed at what was most expected of it back in the days to predict the conception of the 1st soviet nuclear weapon,

time to flick through the archives ruth. on the basis of the evidence now in our possession, it is estimated that the earliest date by which it is remotely possible that the ussr may have completed its 1st atomic bomb is mid 1950. but the most probable date is believed to be mid. 1953. the words of one of the 1st central intelligence directors from 1948 silenced by the sound of the soviet union's 1st nuclear bomb test. in 1949, as the agency celebrates his anniversary, veterans will probably speak of their own glory, like former director, my compare did a few years ago. i was the c i director, we live, which it, it was the hostile. it's like we, we had with entire,

entire training courses into it remind you of the glory of the american experiment. the word glory. next to lying, cheating and stealing. perhaps that sounds okay. if your head of the cia glory i was through throughout its history, the cia had multiple failures. it has also been shaken by a large number of scandals and disclosures. surround the operations, it has conducted a significant number of these operations were attempts to topple legitimate governments, heads of states both successful and unsuccessful. what's more warriors, or rather long list of the agencies, mistakes or cases when it was involved in some of the. busy worlds nastiest practices, nothing to do with america security going back to failures, sticking to nukes. the next thing that comes to mind is how the c,

i initially didn't expect soviet warheads at americas doorstep and cuba. we all know how they got that one terribly wrong. staying with the 19 sixties and cuba, the failed bay of pigs invasion should rang a few bells. events that turned out to be a surprise for the agency include the 1973 young key, poor war in the middle east, or the 1979 revolution in iran. the seventy's, the late seventy's, were high point for the soviet union. the you, us was in terrible state, i think after, after the combined setbacks of the being run out of southeast asia, soviet influence in africa and angola with through their cuban plants was growing. and then we moved into 19, we went through the carter period, which was

a low period for ca. beyond that supposed low period, even the breakup of the soviet union in 1991, came out of the blue for langley. but most notably the see i couldn't predict and prevent 911. the intelligence community struggles throughout the nineties and up to 911, to collect intelligence on and analyze the phenomenon of trust, national terrorism. the combination of an overwhelming number of priorities, flat budgets and outmoded structure and bureaucratic rivalries, resulted in insufficient response to this new challenge. but surprise, surprise, us intelligence said they found weapons of mass destruction in iraq. oops, deliberate or not. that was a mistake too. and moving on to the most recent past. oh, that's painful. what did the c i do about the taliban resurrecting in afghanistan? last year. we're back to where we were 25 years ago. afghan gorillas have defeated

a superpower and made their country and inviting hostile for a new generation of aspiring terrace. and the cia will have very few american spies on the ground to assess that threat. bid o sallow been logged in with his al qaeda or the taliban and it's 2021 resurgence. it's widely seen that washington is still dealing with the consequences of how the c i a flood of ghana stand with weapons in cash in the 1980s. all to try and deal the soviet union a fatal blow. i have a $1000000000.00 a year, a heads, new weaponry. i had $250000.00, more or less full and part time afghans willing to stand up and fight. but there are many more archive pages to be flicked through the scope of controversies. the agency has been subject of is truly impressive. ranging from allegations of drug

trafficking, when backing the anti communist contrasts in nicaragua, to claims of widespread torture in secret prisons all around the world. a medical physical of american legislation, bands, human torture, but only on you as oratory. subsequently, there is no american law that forbids using these measures outside of the us. these measures include experiments on people using various medications, hypnosis and other physical impacts. naturally, these are issues that should not be a part of intelligence agencies, scope of activity. oh, what a reputation. sadly, that even makes you want to replace the word intelligence in the name with a few other words from super m f. c i. e has performed functions throughout the past decades that show it is not purely an intelligence agency, but an instrument of the u. s. aggressively imposing its policy and neglecting international norms and laws. this policy is hedge. a monic like an aggressive

towards other countries. well, happy birthday ca ah, lebanese banks are too close for 3 days from monday after a series of hold ups by depositors demanding access to their frozen savings. a financial collapse took hold of the country 3 years ago, forcing around 3 quarters of the population into poverty. here's ortiz, who st. i ad were with more was since they looked upon us. the banks are being stormed in lebanon. several have been attacked by depositors demanding that they receive their savings. customers are threatening to set banks on fire to use weapons and further escalate the situation so that the rights will be upheld. a little more de installing. we are the depositors outcry association, and we are declaring war and these liberties banks. after 3 years of peaceful means, our demons have not been met. so on the contrary, the government is trying to impose a law to control the capital there, and legitimize the embezzlement of the depositors funds. we are not going to remain

idle. i mean, they're trying to turn us into criminals, but we are seeking to uphold arise as we are trying to get money back. no, i'm up. the said all the escalation is creating panic and confusion among bank workers and has prompted the national banking association to completely shut those establishments for 3 days. the interior ministry has called for an emergency meeting to discuss these events and work on a plan to stabilize the situation in the country. no my, that he caught the depositors need to be careful. it is important that nobody instigates them to destabilize the situation and the country we know there are powers prompting the customers to do so. the security service is investigating such organization why? but the details are confidential. the what the thumb old woman normal is, crisis has been ongoing for 3 years. and lebanese government still can't find a solution to guarantee depositors rights to their own money. people keep on escalating the situation to defend their rights. because of this,

the country has entered into a period of instability, inoperable, washed on the storming of the banks, lebanon has been impacting everyone seeking to uphold their rights. it's turned into a nationwide problem destabilizing the country. and it seems that this is their only chance as the government has failed to find a solution who say in our yard r t, that a router any a while. but the biden administration recently highlighted the importance of contr pulling the digital asset sector while calling for gaps and crypto currency regulation to be identified. but his crypto expert chris ems claims the u. s. is trying to control crypto currency and seeking to monopolize bitcoin. ems is on the f, b i's most wanted list for allegedly organizing a crypto currency conference in north korea and helping the country evade us sanctions. after being accused of helping pyongyang develop block chain technologies to transfer money across borders, he was detained in february and saudi arabia, but later released as riyadh decided not to expedite him to the u. s. earlier i

spoke with him in the studio to get more details on his story. ah. you were detained in saudi arabia, the us, the f b i wants you because you were in north korea and some sort of block chain conference, give us the story. so i was indicted by the by the f b i back in the end of january this year for violating us sanctions that are only a pickable to us people, as you can probably tell from acts and on. i'm not the american british. so that was the long to write of trying to leave saudi arabia where i was at the time where i was detained for 8 months based on any support red notice and the f b i most wanted listing. i was injured at the time in which president biden visited saudi arabia. i don't think it went well for him at all. i think that, you know, the, the days are gone in which the u. s. can truly in cajoled countries even like saudi

arabia, one of the closest allies. so i think that, yeah, you're absolutely right. that played a very big part in, in my freedom and me being his we can see today what exactly happened at this conference in north korea. so thing is done absolutely nothing. this is the crazy thing, right? it's, you know, there's really stories of meeting the sanctions dodging mastermind. it's only cost me money. i never made a penny. i think the russian federation has a huge opportunity right now to embrace crypto currency to regulate the space. i'm all for regulation in order to make sure that you know, sort of money laundering and a sort of crimes use crypto, but to really use it to engage in trade with the world. because essentially that's what crypto it's dawn. it's designed to liberate the world from and to create calmness and free trade. and there's a lot more to crypto than just bitcoin. right. so, you know, we have, we have stable quincy box one to one on any weaker encrypted currency. but that would be like us thought as we both years. and those things are genuine. what

genuine, the right remittance methods that can be used by anyone. but the great thing is that can be used by anyone. no one can stop them, which is exactly why i believe the u. s. targeted me in the 1st place with thing we tried to control control crypto currency with thing they're trying to monopolize specifically bitcoin right now. but the, the, one of the things that they don't really understand the underlying technology, it's encrypt. so we wouldn't say multiplied it, we said the centralized, right? the centralized community of people, the fed up with this narrative with thing these, the sanctions where basically we're being told who you can be friends with, who you can invite to come to your house. you know, if, if, if i live in london, i can't get my friends to moscow to fly in and see me. and people are fed up with it because we live we, we live in this multi part of world, i believe already the internet has changed the world phenomenally. and what we would call a crypt, a web to we now moving into web 3, which is just going to enhance that and open up the well to even more possibilities

around $3000.00 and pilgrims have participated in a yearly ritual, not far from moscow. reading religious texts chanting and singing, they paid homage to one of the russian orthodox churches, most highly venerated saints. this year for session marquis $600.00 anniversary relics, st surges of rodonna were believed to be discovered. events saw the pilgrims and orthodox clergy march, and then eventually crossed them off the river on rafts and via upon soon bridge while reading religious law in well, that's it here on our international for this hours to around for more news and just about 30 news

. ah, so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have is crazy going from taishan. let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic. i develop is only personally i'm going to resist. i'll see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk with a new.
