9:04 pm
they seized the opportunity when they could and but it happened rather unexpectedly quickly. i was told unfortunately, this means that the relative of these people, they haven't really been notified and that if you look closer, there are those who have been injured. they needed help. they need help with getting off the plane. so there's an ambulance here waiting for them, and again, it's unclear whether will these people, whether they were injured during the back during the battle, whether they were injured on the battlefield or if they received their a wounds in ukrainian captivity out rule. the stories of torture, not unheard of, we've had some spine shilling accounts for former sharing. we were abused toward should not have been allowed to smoke. the insults at us only gave us food from time to time. and hans coughed us with they would, should near us, threatened to kill us by stubborn as to death. bid us up to interrogations. the
9:05 pm
singer officer, always humiliated every one, constantly insulted us, sir, this up with false information about attacks on civilians. we were given food just twice a day for a small rations. they didn't behave like human beings or in the prison involved. they force us to learn the ukrainian national anthem and sing patriotic songs. if we refused, we were forced to do squats and pushups, even though we were injured. they marked us prison warden, insulted us, told us to die. the buses will take all these people to a place where they will get the much needed and so long awaited proper rest. these exchanges is the only side where diplomacy still lives in the relations between russia and ukraine. the rest of the talking is done on the battlefield. now south africa, where the poem is soon to consider whether to begin an impeachment process against the country's president who has been facing spiraling corruption obligations, including a multi $1000000.00 embezzlement. i'll see, correspondent cannibal,
9:06 pm
the cutler has the details. b, i me, is south africa seat of power the union buildings, particularly the west doing of which is occupied by the countries number one citizen. in this case, settled, i'm a puerto but the question is for how long? following the report findings of an independent panel that was set up by parliament, the president finds himself against all kinds of damming allegations, the back, sorry to this is that settled? i'm a pause. i had a robbery at his private game farm in limpopo, in february of 2020, the president failed to tell the south african police services about the fed. robbery was also alleged that there was undisclosed amount of money that was stolen, which was mostly in foreign currency breaching the country's laws against holding on to lodge amount of current or foreign courtesy without declaring it to the reserve bank. and that is south africa,
9:07 pm
central bank. seldom opposite is now facing an appeal. he is fast losing friends and his enemies and opposition leaders. i just waiting to actually take advantage of the live being president that they are currently facing. he could possibly face an impeachment process in parliament, and he may also face charges as a sitting president for failing to declare and breaking his own code of ethics that he undertook when he became president. the president has come out with the, with his books person saying that he may address the country. the question is to when and how the, where no details coming forth as to that. but let's hear what people in the street the say who got a lot of tricks. was hust with reaching every month. my friend, you know, so the question is, are wipers. you don't, don't get the tricks. you put the money in these brought, you know, these places. so where come from deadman does a cushion?
9:08 pm
i'm not personally thing that a priest in moscow. i just one day our politics to over think what happened if there's something that is happening in our government, it needs to be looked at truly, even over the management to get them saying, not only the president, how do keep the such money under the carpet and then you expect people not to keep that money out there at the card with rama was a she, she just continued to be a political sort of because there's not allocate the dis, disney that, that the but, but report is not, it's not a far report. what doesn't the say this, it maybe if you just that person, if you had a person just say you are from the said, no, i am telling the president because of this and business. so it does know that there's no touch. the findings of the report could not have come, it was time for south africa. the country is currently facing severe electricity shortages. and people have to enjoy as much as 5 hours without electricity every
9:09 pm
single day, nationally. and also that the high an endemic employment crisis unit in south africa with unemployment figures as much as 40 percent of those that are able to join the labor market being without work. south africa also has a serious problem of lawlessness and particularly corruption. and that has been seen in both the private and the public sector, but also felt on the street as generally people have to endure the. the realities of that south africa is quite an unsafe country. all 3 things that settled, i'm up with us. government had promised to tackle the man was on an investment drive to try and bring much needed investment to the country in order to create job opportunities. terrible. if at 40 in pretoria or as the year south u. s. federal lawmakers have approved in the station to it railway letters from
9:10 pm
conducting and labor strike present. joe biden has by that decision as a nation wide railway protest could cost the u. s. economy up to $2000000000.00 per day. are these kinda molten has the story? well, essentially this bill would outlaw a potential upcoming strike. i would force the railroad workers unions. that's 4 different unions that represent 55 percent of railroad workers in america. they would force them to accept a contract that they have already reject it. now the onions themselves are saying that they will go on strike anyway, regardless of whether or not it is illegal. but the biden administration has long presented itself as a friend of organized labor to no, you've heard me say many times i intend to be the most pro union present. in the most pro unit administration, american history, i try credit. the white house task force on worker organization and palmer to make
9:11 pm
sure the choice to join a union belongs to workers along unions are more fed, more support to day and american public opinion than any time in 60 years. now, that's joe biden. the u. s. president who has presented himself as the most pro labor pro labor union president in history is such a big, strong supporter of labor unions. but now he's pushing forward this piece of legislation that would outlaw a strike and basically take away the ability of railroad workers to withhold their labor in a strike. and he's saying, well, this has to be done because of the economic impact of such a strike. it would be devastating on the u. s. economy. well, many americans are looking at that and saying, well, what about all the inflation he's provide resided over? i mean, that's gonna certainly have an impact on the u. s. economy, but when it comes to ukraine, now the u. s. congress moved the house and the senate are happy to open up their checkbooks and pass legislation in may. there was $40000000000.00 provided to
9:12 pm
ukraine by the united states in september, an additional $12300000000.00 was passed by the u. s. congress and provided to ukraine. meanwhile, if one looks at the polls, the u. s. public isn't deeply concerned about you. ukraine just isn't showing up among the top issues that americans are concerned about. americans are concerned about inflation, the economy. they're concerned about the danger of war. but this notion that, that ukraine and sending weapons and a grant is one of their top concern doesn't seem to be a priority. but regardless, we'd now see the binder administration on the brink of essentially turning its back and really doing significant damage to one of the strongest allies, the labor movement, taking away the ability of railroad workers to withhold their labor and go on strike. meanwhile, when it comes to ukraine, an issue that americans have just shown in poll after poll after poll, that they aren't deeply concerned about. we've seen the buy in ministration. never show any restraint and go ahead and provide whatever is asked for whatever is
9:13 pm
needed in a conflict that most americans just aren't interested in say in the us investigation has revealed that american police officers have faithfully shot a 1000 people per year during each of the last 5 years, according to research published by the washington post, american police officers kill 3 people on average every day. about 30 percent of those killed are african americans with the highest rated shootings occurring the traditional conservative states of new mexico, alaska, and oklahoma. so far this year, american police offices have killed 1054 people. the highest recorded number we heard from a former director of the national black police association who says the numbers remain disturbing the high despite measures taken to address the issue i think is so it's
9:14 pm
a result of do the militarization of the police department and less focus on her own, on their mission and in public safety. and because of that we've seen the increase and even in light of the reform nest, after so has been going on in the country as a result of dog for flow. it's death. we still see the escalation of dis, at the hands of police officer. so i just, i just have now seen prove that they're taking that service. i would say african, our nigeria president has claimed that weapons used in the ukraine. conflicts have ended up being obtained by insurgence in africa. regrettably, the situation in the saw hill and the raging war in ukraine service, major sources of weapons and fight is the boast of the ranks of the terrorist in lake chad,
9:15 pm
region. weapons being used for the war in ukraine and russia are equally beginning to filter to the region was in the has been caves. main weaponry supplier has been reported that both made the us political parties now agree the need to strengthen the monitoring of arms being sent to ukraine. some of my fears are saying that the current system is an adequate considering cranes high corruption rate. but there's no consensus on how it should be reformed. the issue has long been recognized on an international level back in june, the head of interval warm arms being sent to crane would emerge on the black market . he also called on countries that have been providing weapons the claim to be more adequate. the monitor adequately monitor where those supplies and up for nigerian presidential aspirant and jefferson strategic added mood garb. the 2nd
9:16 pm
says weapons trafficking remains a serious issue. now we have, oh, did you put it in for a company to help deal with ms. walker? you know how to do joining now with a company that much, well, we went to the ship for when people, when you've worked with you, or you will need to move that we need to, we need to do that to see what we've been duncan with him about intelligence with, for dog exacerbates you soldiers, it really all particularly to see this. because all 3 of them can just talk to me how we hope to win strong 40 something to do on the end of what is on the quantity public. charles is actually one of the majorities,
9:17 pm
why we hope this with the u. s. bastards and eto has said it would be counterproductive to designate russia as a terrorist state, because that could hinder weston assistance to ukraine. on the question of whether or not nato is debating or discussing the possibility of designating russia as a terrorist state. the feeling in washington is that this really is a necessary at the moment. and in fact, kate, be perhaps counter productive. those words were in sog contra alternate says consolidated position. the alliance member states voted unanimously last month to designate russia as a terrorist state and called for the creation of a special tribunal to investigate allegations of war. crimes impala has also adopted a resolution to declare russia, a state sponsor of terrorism, calling honest member states, isolate moscow, but russia has slammed that move as she do legal labeling of countries. the west
9:18 pm
doesn't like form a pentagon security policy analyst mike on the loses europe is fueling in the conflict by encouraging christ presidency. even though the united states will declare russia as a, as a terrorist state, biden is leave it up to the lensky to the side when and to, to maybe consider a in negotiate a settlement of some time and try to, to lessen the impact of this war on the, on, on the west. but europe, on the other hand just has completely capitulated to zalinski and they believe his narrative and it's just not realistic given, given the reality on the ground there. i do know that there is an effort by the us, particularly since we just recently saw in fact the, the, the,
9:19 pm
the intelligence chiefs of the united states and russia getting together to discuss this. and this followed an initiative that i heard and with, with colleagues from overseas, that there is a desire to have a ceasefire. and a i should say by moscow to have a cease fire and then have a negotiated settlement. and i think that fact shows that the united states does not want to close any doors to that. it can europeans continue this? no, absolutely not. they will be relying on the united states and it will not work because the united states is probably going to be much more restrictive than what it does provide in the future. in europe is for some reason, doesn't understand that he has won the world's written just man in mosque to do
9:20 pm
much more to tackle this information on twitter. if he wants the platform to remain available to you then uses i welcome eat on musk statements of intent to get which a 2 point oh, ready for the you digital services act. but let's also be clear that they still huge work ahead. twitter will have to implement transparent use of policies, significantly reinforced content, moderation, and protect freedom of speech. tackle this information and resolve and limit targeted advertising. the a passenger session this year for centralized enforcement of data protection rules, meaning tougher oversight. major online platforms such as twitter, if the company is found to be not in compliance, it can face a fine of up to 6 percent of its global revenue, or even a bomb on operating in the u. a law mosque has described himself as a free speech. absolute is, am, has said, he would allow almost everything to be on to be said on twitter. but his chaotic
9:21 pm
acquisition of the company earlier this year cools quite a stir. as a number of high profile celebrities quit the platform in protest in policy changes such as the reactivation of former president donald trump's account. we heard from independent journalist reweigh who says the ease criticism of twitter shows the book is uncomfortable with online freedom of expression. democracy is not to rule any more in your course, you would fight this information. but what do you mean? what do you call this information? the european commission is race. guess that if a twitter is given free reign, if people can comment as much as they want, if they have freedom because on twitch it real freedom will be not lacking. the subsidized stress there is this warning shot by jerry, what one by here
9:22 pm
a can commission. but actually they know that it will have to, to twitter, develop in europe or continue it's work and be free. s l must wants it to be. ah says for him as a kid is germany and deliberately there's still 2 historical facts to serve current political purposes for the german parliament passed a resolution to officially declare famine that occurred in service ukraine territory. 90 years ago was genocide, the german political elites attempts to belittle its guilt using artificially contracted acts of genocide by ukrainian nationalist radicals and blaming the ussr for it. the german elite tries to whitewash the memory of countless inhumane crimes of unprecedented scale committed by nazi germany. in the 2nd world war, the vast majority of german power member supported the move to call the death of millions of people political murder by the soviet leadership. but despite the fact that the famine took place, not just a new grain,
9:23 pm
but also in other parts of the soviet union. in fact, the soviet government made an effort to provide food grain at the expense of other regions on caesar, ronco serve as the details. germany declared that the gradient salmon in 1930 was actually a genocide called gold or more and was deliberately organized and supported by this government. the actual history of what happened, of course, was not even taken into consideration ukrainian propagandists. and now german lawmakers make it seem as if ukraine was the only republic the suffered, the hunger in the 1930s. however, in reality, other nations and parts of the country, including the vulgar region cassock, san and the north caucasus actually suffered a lot more. and those regions actually received by far less assistance from the central government than ukraine. furthermore, the germans,
9:24 pm
who recognized the famine as genocide, should look a little bit closer to home for the reasons why ukraine lost a significant part of its population. 1.3000000 ukrainians died in nazi concentration camps. the same number or it killed at the front fighting against the germans. mind you. the armies led by hitler, were not exclusively german, as collaborators from elsewhere in europe also took part in multiple massacres. the heroics of the soldiers who fought in the 2nd world war are imprinted in the memories of several generations in the former soviet union in ukraine. even school children know that their ancestors fought against nazism of the 15 major fronts, more than half or led by marshals and generals who were off ukrainian origin. more
9:25 pm
than 16 percent of the red armies personnel were ukrainian. and that's about 7000000 people. they would have been highly unlikely to defend the ussr if it committed genocide against them. less than a decade earlier. russia's foreign ministry has called down germany's recent political manifesto, stating that no amount of current virtuous signaling will wipe out the facts of the past. i think it gets so just so, so convenient to suddenly remember something that happened 90 years ago. i was forgetting everything else that happened. so i, i regarded as may opportunistic to now brand this, a genocide in my mind is upset because it was never targeted against any specific people. it was not targeted against ukrainians or cossacks. now, 90 years later, in a foreign parliament in germany, a country that is so guilty of the worst atrocities in war crimes ever committed in
9:26 pm
human history. to now make this the case of a resolution to condemn russia. specifically it's, it's not on your patristic, it's very unsafe. a germany hasn't cat 4 for 70 years, for instance, about the worst massacre in world war whose history in a body yacht just outside kit went in the 1st 2 days. in 941 over 34000 people were killed by bullets corpses were piling up. the children were thrown into the corpses without being killed. it was one of the horrendous, the most horrific things that germany ever did in that terrible war. and and the german parliament is never bother when i thought this is how i feed in a valleys onqua folk, an willy buckle. that'll be out that his head lives his blade. you're always with
9:28 pm
9:29 pm
a national z m doing this is shiny or if you by you, when you sit down with a with hello and welcome to cross top. were all things considered? i'm peter lavelle because of nato's insistence to expand eastward. we have the conflict in ukraine and ukraine is quickly becoming a failed state and to humanitarian crisis. nonetheless, nato is undeterred. this alliance continues to be the biggest threat, japan, european security,
9:30 pm
is also indifferent to the damage it does to the international system. with cross talking nato doubling down, i'm joined by my guess, daniel nick adams in lake jackson. he's the executive director of the ron paul institute for peace and prosperity in washington state. we have on 3 months to be on the he is a writer as well as a military and political analyst. and in loan's we cross to young oberg. he is the director of the swedish independent trends national foundation for peace and future research, or a gentleman. soc rules and effects, that means he can jump anytime you want. and i always appreciate, danny. let me go to you 1st and like jackson here, nato is double down, you know, it's a, it's a, they met in book book arrests, you know, they, they're doing it all over again. the door is open. so how is ukraine done over the years, with the open door to nato? has it really benefited nato?
