and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. ah, ukraine wants to draw nato into a direct conflict with russia that according to russia's deputy envoy to the un following a closed door meeting of the security council over moscow's warnings that key at could use is so called dirty bomb. and a false 5 operation with 13 people are reportedly injured. and then donna were public after ukrainian forces launch multiple stripes on its capital and the adjacent area. the us state department left 325000 afghan rescue program applications and red. i made promises from the vitamin

administration to help those who worked with the u. s. military during the conflict with from moscow to the world. this is our t international. i'm rachel blevins and these are the top stories. this our key ab wants to drag nato into a direct conflict with russia by using a so called nuclear dirty bomb. that's according to russia's deputy envoy to the un . katy really wants to avoid. first of all, defeats secondly wants to involve need, so for their ex, flesh with russia, which is very dangerous, and what, which we will be profitable for, and ask him to remain in power. dmitri poli, aski is the, the russian deputy ambassador to the us. he spoke and made clear that russia is not

threatening the use of nuclear weapon, but it's simply not accurate. prior to that, sir, g, a lab rob the foreign minister of russia, has referred to such claim this frivolous and fiction. now, when fully anthea was speaking to the president, the emphasized that the un security council meeting was held behind closed doors for security reasons. so they wanted to present information to the other members of the security council. they did not want to be public. what we understand the ministry of defense of russia has come forward saying it has evidence that apparently is planning some kind of dirty bomb provocation, nuclear provocation, that they would then blame on russia in order to hurt russia, you know, its image around the world and also draw in nato. ready forces to intervene. now russia share this information with the defense ministry of the united kingdom of france, of turkey and the united states after the un meeting us officials called out russia

for daring to accuse ukraine from a u. s. standpoint, the allegations that ukraine is building a dirty bomb or false. we have not seen at this time though, any indication that russia has made a decision or intends to employ nuclear weapons or a dirty bomb. but there would be consequences for russia, whether it uses a nuclear weapon or dirty bomb lensky. the ukrainian president has been him say that it is possible that ukraine itself maybe proliferating nuclear weapons. and recent remarks zelinski talked about the need to get beyond that the buddha passed a memorandum of $994.00. and that is an agreement that stipulates that ukraine cannot proliferate nuclear weapons. and we have heard similar comments from ukranian officials since 2014 your present use negotiations and consultations,

fail again, or concrete decisions on security guarantees for ukraine are not taken based on their results than the ukranian side. will have the right to believe that the budapest agreement does not work and will question all the package decisions of 1994 and the obligations of guarantor countries. we will use all the resources we have, including to create effective weapons, dirty or clean. this is a separate technological issue. ukraine has no other choice. either. we are part of the lines such as nato and do our part to make europe stronger. we have the only option, which is dawn by ourselves and may be think about nuclear status again. now, the russian ministry of defense is indicated that it's possible the united kingdom could be cooperating with ukraine around this issue of possible nuclear proliferation, which is quite a serious issue. now it's important to note that western leaders are not emphasizing or addressing this concern about a possible nuclear dirty bomb provocation. political analyst,

alexander pavlovitch told us that ukraine's government could potentially stage a false flag attack to get more support from the west. of course, russia had no reason to use them, but then i, when, when, so when the russian allegations came out, i think they sound very credible because kim is definitely starting to feel war there. definitely. after this meeting mobilization, partial mobilization part of russia. they know that their time is up and they're desperate for something and they're desperate to get any sort of western support. and about the only way they can really gather direct western support is by station some sort of a cross flag and accusing russia in washington. london,

and just to you. and so they're probably all in some sort of cahoots, or at least tacit agreement here because they don't want you crying to lose either . they've said numerous times that they want russia defeated, kia regime has shown total disregard for the lives of their citizens. and their soldiers are, you know, they're sending them into a meat grinder, you know, into almost certain death. so i don't think that they're worried about, you know, a few 100000, or how's thousands more of their soldiers as citizens dying. they're already sacrifice hundreds of 1000 people. you, as democrats have withdrawn their letter to president joe biden, calling for a d escalation of the ukrainian conflict and negotiations with moscow. according to the chair and the congressional progressive caucus, the letter was sent to the white house without proper venting. the letter was

drafted several months ago, but unfortunately was released by staff without betting. every war ends with diplomacy, and this one will to after ukrainian victory. the letter, although re stating that basic principle, is a distraction at this time and we withdraw the letter. more than 2 dozen congress democrats initially signed the letter calling on the president to push for a cease fire and a negotiated solution to the conflict. this comes as the white house pledges more cash and military support for ukraine urging key ads to keep fighting while some u. s. republicans feel voters want the white house to focus on domestic issues. but i'll tell you when i been on the campaign trail, laura about 500 and i think, 8 days now, nobody ever asks about what that commission is up to. nobody ever asked about ukraine. everyone's asking about are wide open border drugs pouring in, illegal immigration. they're asking about the education system,

this brainwashing are children. they're concerned about the crime that's rising on the streets. and that's why they're voting republican because republicans and the new republican party have the common sense ideas to the problems that we're facing . recent poll show that a small minority of republicans feel the u. s. should keep up its support of kiev, according to polls only 29 percent of registered g o. p members support the idea, the washington should be helping ukraine. that's in contrast to 56 percent of registered democrats who feel the same way. the polls also show that overall only 42 percent of americans believe the u. s. should continue supplying aid to kiev. amid mounting criticism at home, joe, by then has been warning voters about the alleged dangers of a republican when in the elections last couple weeks. i don't pay attention to anything, having do the polls, i just pay attention. what's happened on the phone? we're knocking on doors. i'm heard deliver what i believe is

a closing argument. what we need to do in the next 15 days to make a victory assured and make it clear that the selection is a referendum. it's not a referendum, i should say it's a choice. everybody wants to make it a referendum, but it's a choice between 2 vastly different visions. for america, significantly different democrats are building a better america, very one with the economy, the gross and the bottom up in the middle out. where everyone does well, republicans are doubling down on a mega, mega trickle down economics. that benefits to very wealthy, fail the country before and will fail it again if they would let us cross line. now to talk, show her steve malls berg to discuss this further. steve, it's good to see you. now. what do you make and the democrats decision to withdraw the letter, which i already been sent to the white house urging binding to end of the ukrainian conflict in the u. s. support for it. what was the real reason behind this back

paddling? do you think? well, the real reason and thanks for having the rachel, good to see you. is that politics and the midterms coming up in a couple of weeks, they freak out the chairman of the progressive caucus in her explanation letter way. 8. if you believe that he claimed that the letter wasn't netted properly, he also said, we're now somehow alive, obligated to pull the plug, an american support for president lynn in the for any of the mccarthy, kevin mccarthy would become the speaker of the house. republicans take over the how good simply we cannot provide a blank check anymore. we have to have accountability for the billions of dollars being your brain and the military hardware being great. he never said what she did . he never said, we're going to report for ukraine. we're going to end resiliency. we're done with

ukraine, but there's no standard that the congressional progressive caucus, the most radical left the caucus in the congress, couldn't even allow 30 of their $100.00 members. have this letter stand as it is, because there's no afraid of the political consequences. now, i believe most americans, when you use, before you cited rules, i'm out there get 1000000 holes out there. but i believe if you ask american, are you willing to have the world destroyed because of this war? are you willing to send your son or daughter? why eventually, in this war i think the answer would be overwhelmingly go. and it's interesting, right? because i know congress in a row can kind of on, on cnn. after the letter was withdrawn, he was one of the people who signed that original letter. and he said, what we're talking about is no more escalation. don't nuclear, catastrophe and devastation in the world. and less to 1000000000 cash will be who

could argue with that? i just think that this is the one open ended like whether it be our financial, the board or military, the board, or the war itself. because it's going to go nowhere. we need to sit down and off if it take us to rush your 1st, and then you're bringing your brain or whatever. something's got to start. right? and it is interesting. you see, when you look at poll after poll of what the american people are concerned about, it always comes back to the u. s. economy and inflation. so it is kind of interesting to see democrats at least taking this line where they want to continue with what they say is the opposite of what republicans are saying. but i guess you have to question what that really is. now were you surprised by the discontent coming from the party in relation to the by the administration's approach to the conflict and ukraine? is this a sign of some sort of a political crisis within the party,

especially with those mid term elections right around the corner? well, i think the democratic party, i mean again that you did the congressional progressive caucus, like i said, it is the most radical i'm just about every issue, some more radical than others. but i think, i think what, to be honest with you, i'm a, you know, i'm a conservative try to do conservative. and i got to tell you, you know, i'm kind of with them in that. i think that before, and i think the american public, when it comes to now start the talk where the super powers let us get down. we're helping ukraine, russia, the ball would you let us all sit down and talk and then bring it. if you give you kind of proposal do something, i mean this notion that 1st step go to purse on the battlefield, i guess. and then we all, i mean that doesn't make any sense. that's not an off ramp. that's up broken ram. yeah. does. it does make you wonder how long they can continue going into space and

of course, where it leads. now, speaking of those mid term elections, i have to ask, what is your forecast for the congress? and of course, for the senate. do you think that democrats will be able to keep out their momentum, or do you think that we're going to see sort of this read wave of republicans coming in because of the issues that they're talking about and bringing up in relation to the american people. the democrats put all their eggs in the abortion basket after the supreme court knocked down roe v wade in june, and that was supposed to be the motivating factor. that would, that was good to get them the election. and in a couple of weeks in november, that's not happening, it's, it's inflation, it's the economy, it's crime, it's education indoctrinating our children into the transsexual world against the parents issues. so i think that the house undoubtedly will go through the public ins. and after watching the john betterment, dr. men odd debate in pennsylvania just before i came on with you,

i don't know how anybody could pull the lever per john betterments. i think the republicans have a fair chance of taking both got it. and the how will certainly continue to follow it as those elections do. take place. talk to host steve malls berg. thank you so much for your time in analysis. appreciate 13 people have been wounded in the don ask republic following tuesday showing by the ukranian army according to local territorial defense officials. the capital city was shelled at least 6 times throughout the day. ukraine's forces reportedly used multiple launch rocket systems in the attacks. the explosion, scattered, shrapnel across the area, damaging several buildings and cars in a residential district. our team roman coast, visited the scene. right now we are in one of the areas that was struck by ukrainian nationalists. this is a cafe and it was circle of people during rush hour right now you can see that it's

well destroyed and there's still food on the table. people apparently were not able to finish their meals and people who were outside phil victim to this . you crate in shedding. now this is just one of the districts have came under fire this tuesday, according to official information. ukrainian nationalist fired at least $250.00 shills. by the way, those shows were a very high caliber various weapons were used, including those that were produced by nato countries. from on costa r t, the nest people's republic. the us state department allegedly left 325000 afghan rescuing program applications on red. that's after washington pledge special visas and relocations for afghan locals who helped us forces in america as longest ever war. the state department inspector general

reported that tens of thousands of e mails from afghan seeking safety were simply left unopened with the state department breaking guidelines by stalling the applications. the program was launched after the u. s. withdrawal from afghanistan last year, but the white house promises has been left unfulfilled. today's and, and pulled milestone as we continue to fulfill a promise to the thousands of having the nationals who served shoulder to shoulder with american troops and diplomats, or the last many years. and of garrison, we will quickly to relocate special immigrant resa, eligible afghans out of hom, sway to the united states to you as fortuitous abroad or 2 3rd countries so that they can wait in safety while they finish their visa applications. afghans are not the 1st have been left with nothing after washington's promises to provide help or rocky refugees facing the very same problems with getting us special. b says,

in fact, more than 1200000 or rocky remain displaced with 4100000 in need of humanitarian assistance following chaos and their country which ensued after the 2003 us invasion. and the aftermath, thousands of iraqis applied for american v says with most not getting a positive response. journalist and former c a analysts, john kerry aku, says washington has a track record of broken promises, especially when it comes to countries affected by us military operations. i think that this has something to say about nationals of any country that the united states occupies or attempts to occupy over a long period of time. there's always the very well thought out plan to go into these countries, but there's never a well thought out plan, but how to get out of these countries. and we end up just abandoning them. and abandoning the people who, in many cases like you know, spend

a lifetime trying to help the united states, the white house, the state department, and to a slightly lesser extent, the pentagon making promises that they just are not able to keep. we promised iraqis, for example, that we would resettle them. we promised the kurds that we would resettle them. we had a program to resettle syrians. again, we always have a plan to go into these countries and we never have a plan to get out. ah, demonstrators and tie, want, have gathered to protest against us, lead democratic conference, and slam president sighing went over her relationship with washington. she did not win the trust of the people of taiwan at all. she constantly provoked conflicts between the 2 sides of the street and became the lackey of the united states. sometimes sy, in when in taiwan democratic progressive party are like wagging dog tails to curry favor with the bite and administration in the united states. that protesters

assembled outside the conference location, voicing their opposition and calling it a sham gas from 70 countries, are taking part in the event, including members of the ukrainian parliament such as cure ab roodick at the conference, president sighing when also compared the conflict and ukraine with the situation around taiwan ah, a with a live with independent china expert, andrew leanne says that ukraine's presence in the conference was aimed at dragging china into the ukrainian conflict. the thought is try the. busy jack, either in the ukrainian turmoil on,

has not directly intervene in ukraine war and in fact, as always, holding on to the principle of repose and integrity. but on the other hand, the united states and you play a direct job. busy into the, into the credit line. so by viewing this provocative visit at this very unusual. busy time i think the beijing is, is easier to see through all this cheap ploy. as i said, i've been at this unusual time, a good time to grade. and here is a lot of dedication from out of all countries. great. so, so i did apply for making a routine stand for john is going to because so it sounds about this and but lecturing china has got to voice is consent and, but i think the child is going to see this very malicious ploy to drive

a. ready wire and now to the annual meeting and the valet discussion club, which is entering its 3rd day today in moscow with more paneled discussions on the schedule. we spoke, toaster artes worlds apart, oksana boycott about what's on the agenda for the meeting. they to, over the whole discussion club could be summarized by that old bill. clinton's phrase, it's all about the economy, stupid. and the word stupid is very appropriate here because many of the participants have been analyzing and talking about not very smart, economic decisions, that economic powers that be took over the last couple of years and how it's affecting the rest of the world. now there's been a lot of discussion about how globalization western lab globalization that is underwritten by the western financial system by the dollar and the euro has been

disintegrating and it's not only because of their recent events. but if that whole process started during the call at $900.00 conduct when some of the leading countries in the world demonstrate it's very, very selfish. and somebody would say, cruel behavior, courting supplies for themselves and leaving the rest of the world exposed and really puting in view, the very pressing necessity for many countries to rely on themselves on themselves to be self sufficient, at least when it comes to the why those supplies and vital services, but that process in and of itself was exacerbated by the balance of 2022 with the financial and economic sanctions that the west tried to introduce against russia. and i stress here the word tried because the effects of those sanctions berg very mixed. they didn't hurt the russia as much as it was intended by there

was, but they really heard the rest of their world, particularly developing countries in the global south. many air representatives of which are present here at the val di, forum and that creates a major necessity of for the world to restructure the way the economy is being functioning. and russia found itself in the center of this new forming economic system. again, it's not geared against the united states or the west side, but it's almost as if the actions of some of the western powers, poor thing, countries to find more risk drone ways of dealing with one another. and that would be trading local currency is trying to create current systems of settling accounts, bars or trade, what have you. but this is something that is in the center of many of the over the discussions here. earlier we spoke to d balla than kat ash bar,

my former indian investor to the russian federation, who says that both countries will benefit from a multi polar world and are already putting economic cooperation into practice through organizations such as bricks, india and russia for long supported multi polarity, and we are a part of many groupings which promote party polarity bricks, one, seal for another, gender corporation organization. i see showing that china. so there are a number of areas where we cooperate with each other, including at the united nations. to see that the india, indiana, russia are more and benefit from our depo lot of whether or not we're not, we're not come monday through through easy means. i think that a lot of challenges that come from establish if you call them germany pato established bonds. it is a matter of debate, but the fact is that both india and russia would like to seek multiple otherwise.

we're also not in favor of international sanctions. sanctions regime is as very strong or not damage on the world economy. creating inflation in different parts of the was also born of commodity supplies, separate destructor, and the well being of common millions of people is being affected in different parts of the right. so the message is very clear. we would like return to donovan diplomacy, but we're also insisting that the collateral damage that has been created by the sanctions be reduced and re west at the us. i historical boomerang, that's how people in india are describing. the appointment of new british prime minister ratio soon acts who is of indian defense. here's our chief ranger and sharma with more timber leak and historic mormon. not just for india,

a boat for the world and for more reasons than one. firstly, this is going to be for the very 1st time that a man off color will be heading an office, one of the most important offices in the world. and of course, this man of indian origin, or we are seeing god, the sort of sentiment online we're flying now. are people really, really there that joy doc, considering they recently in the, are celebrated 75 years of its independence from british rule. and these saw develop and for all of u. k has in a sense, come as a devali gift for and down the valley of big hindu festival. the big boonies in india, the big newspapers, the indian channels every read. the headline today really has been about this she's the not taking are soon taking were were as the prime minister or you can also,

like i said, it got becomes a little emotional as so to say for india. because this year, just a few months ago in that did celebrate it's 75 years of independence from the british shoe and then it has a live out the 1st of all, as an indian, i feel very happy that an indian is going abroad for such a high post, whoever happens to be a prime minister, it's a proud moment for the country, an indian leading the whole country and an indian working in a foreign country that ruled us for 250 years, gives us a lot of happiness. it would be good to see someone from our country, our culture hurting a country which ones are this particular india and many other countries in asia. so definitely it is something we wrote off. i'd be happy of. india regency plan is doing so much a great job all over the world and it shows that in

a future definitely become a superpower. so the point truly, we have so much faith in and confidence really in addition to not that he would be able to just, you know, tackle this, this challenging situation. the economic crisis sort of see that in u. k is facing right now that he really storm rochester and the conflicts in the. * patty, but also in the country. of course i was pointing out that wishes to knock isa. in fact, on the son of india, one of richest man. no, i'm more the and his wealth and his privilege and fight has been used against him. i by his critics, are more often than not, but now at a time like this. so there is some sort of confidence that we are seeing in, in, in fact, in indians as well as in people in the u. k. as far as where she's an ac is concerned, he's been the ministry of finance in yuki all for 3 years. he's proved himself. he has a good fella, track record. there are some hopefully is that he stays on

a spokesperson for india's ruling party. told us that soon next appointment illustrates the irony of britain's colonial history. the 1st of all, i give my best of luck for me, from my country, from the services, so knocker and be vish him a successful life. from the lead off gandhi. com, the non wireless, so this is the only you get by in the us. but in a non boiler, these fundamental, see if you look good oriented, you did a review in dumps off each record and then saw more and more indians are just then that would be sure and you can be on our list in crime. so it.
