ah, with headlines this hour, the latest round of you for a has reported the killed 3 civilians are the residential areas with targeted and home with his president position. it appears the claim never intended to abide by pre the seat by agreement. and now western powers, the feeling of the conflict with my dog to the merchant day. following his release from a us jail in a prison swap between moscow and washington. a still need to realize

these feelings like the words to describe it all. my wife is here with me now, so we have finally reunited with good evening wherever you are in the world. welcome dog. c internationalist jo. 7 am here in the russian capitalized. great to have you with us. i'm rather mommy. let's take a look at today's top stories. we start with the latest development in the dawn bus . local officials say 3 people were killed. ukrainian 4th is least a barrage of artillery fire on residential areas in the city of den esque as he say this house rot said in flames. office was hit by a quinn in artillery shelling the home was completely destroyed by the fire. the parents building was also heavily damaged and fire destroyed nearby

vehicles. this whole neighborhood is residential without n e t. v. installation. officials say ukrainian forces repeatedly shell, the city on friday. this is some of the aftermath. most little buildings in the city center was damaged. authorities said the printing grad rocket artillery system was used and the attacks that type of weapon is generally not precise, is used to target lodge areas and cause massive destruction. russia pointed until the ongoing ukrainian shelley of dallas, in the latest un security council meeting, in which there were also concerns raised about weapons supply to keep any up in criminal hands. roses ambassador also said ukrainian forces have been using western weaponry to kill civilians. the dumbass was when he did have done this, a real massacre with the use of western weapons has been taking place into nets can

recent weeks as ukrainian forces pushed by western countries are trying to literally destroy the city. they conduct daily attacks on residential areas where there are no military targets. when we go crowded places are being hit during rush hour. there have been significant crandall cheese and destruction just before the un security council meeting began in manhattan at the un chamber. i'm just before it began the attack on done as we had already begun. the remarks made by the russian ambassador were white relevant as he was describing what was going on. he described attacks on civilians. he described how the forces, based in cuba, how they've been using the weapons provided to them by the united states, the crimes against civilians they have committed. here is some of what the russian ambassador sad when addressing the un security council. so did you, persona was among the supplied weapons,

the u. s. high mars multiple launch rockets. systems are particularly noteworthy, but we know for sure and key of and washington have repeatedly indirectly confirmed this, that american specialists are involved in the operation of these installations. sort of the targeting with the high mars is conducted with the help of u. s. military satellites. while u. s. military personnel on the ground coordinate with the intelligence forces for the representatives of keith themselves. have admitted that not a single attack with a high more system has taken place without the consent of the united states. now, the russian ambassador describe the atrocities being committed against civilians and how the united states claims that the weapons it provides are very accurate and precise. and so if that is the case, our all these civilians being killed. if the act weapons are as accurate and precise as the act states claims they are, it would seem that the number of civilians killed in ganache can launch, can other places, eyes, perhaps intentional. he went on to say that russia is carefully documenting the war

crimes that are being committed and says that such crimes do have legal consequences. furthermore, he went on to describe what was the point that was raised throughout the meeting, which is the danger of his weapons. that the states is supplying to the criminal government and possibly flowing into the hands of criminal organizations, terrorists and other groups. there could be a security concern and could pose a danger, not just to russia and ukraine, but to many countries throughout europe. again, the, when the major difficult topic is a weapon sent to ukraine or being smuggled around the world, we have already warned about the risks of weapons falling into the hands of terrorists and other criminal groups. this is not speculation. here it is a warning concern expressed by european states themselves. the problem of theft of weapons from ukrainian military warehouses appeared a long time ago. the situation has already got out of control weapons intended for our surfacing on the black market. not only in europe, but also in the middle east and africa. now,

when the representative of the united states spoke before the un security council, he responded as is typical. when u. s. leaders respond to russia, he simply dismissed everything that russia, that despite all the evidence and the careful documentation dismissed at all, is just this information. and it's also important to note that russia brought forward experts to speak before the un security council. some of those experts were able to speak, but others were blocked and prevented. russia wanted to bring forward a number of experts to testify before the 15 member body that leads the united nation about the dangerous flow of weapons and how, you know, the us, they. busy unloading all these weapons and how it could have global security implications that could threaten many countries, not just russia and ukraine. so that was the meeting that took place in the un security council chamber. we heard from human rights lead vancover lic who's was

allowed to give a speech at the one security council meeting office. several of the potential speakers were vetoed by the us. he says the west is strictly a, tearing to his usual play book of putting the blame on russia without looking deeper into the problem. there's a huge pro u. s. pro western bed to the security council. and so to question what the u. s. is doing particularly with aid to ukraine, is, is something they don't hear much. i would say i was pretty, i felt pretty jaded after it. i was very i don't know of disappointed the word, but it, impressed upon me that you know, most of the speakers from france, the us, the u. k. ireland, even, um, they didn't address the issues. we raced about the weapons ending up an unsavory

hands. they just ignore that went back to their. busy taught anti russian talking points. meanwhile, there's tons of evidence that you crane or forces in you crank gangs in ukraine. these right as groups like the as a battalion, ukraine to have an are diverting weapons to other countries. but again, the security council seemed to largely ignore all that and tried to blame again all the plight, problems on russia, which seems par for the course. i don't see real discussions coming out of the security council on any of these important issues. and that's very sad because the security council is the body in the world responsible for maintaining international peace and security. and the only body that really has power to do so . and they seem to have, frankly, totally advocated that is totally different. that joseph bureau has put himself awkward situation. and so to the intelligence of

africa and express support for russia. bureau said they probably don't know where the dumb is or even who i'm it is by russia is able to the fled, blame to east reality and to find an audience in some part of the. well, i've seen in the tv screens, there's an african young people on the streets. obama go with bill board saying foot dean sang, you have saved the dom bus and now you will save us. it's a really shocking. well, you can see that these people don't know where the don buzz is. maybe they don't even know who is 14, but they are getting mobilized on districts. and they see is some capital of a country who is a, a candidate to become members that have been union. you have to go to that michael,

have to go to the balcony and you were in the balcony. so thanks. happy birthday mister put it while the comment by joseph burrell, do not surprise many on the continent, and they explain why africa keeps looking eastwards for corporation as well as development. these come as well as the burrell really and not just races which offend many on the continent, but they also come to be expected the kind of cake thought then have led many european countries to come up africa, divide. people support conflict and only really come to africa when they bring the cameras and aid. europe has never really held africa in terms of is development and for what they have taken from the african continent. one would imagine that they would give back mr. burrell and the history of commons really put,

paid to what we on the continent was where you thought we've wondered what kinds of skills you need to have in order to become a policy chief, let alone and policy chief. mr. burrell does not have the wherewithal with was he keeps saying the same thing. statement is not only about african, it's, but people of the rest of the world to how is he able to travel the world and field represent europe on a global phase of community that consider itself need us and such commons and such guys is still a buffle to many of us, the rest of the world must have the rest of the goal. it's a jungle and the jungle could invade regarding the garden. it has to go to the jungle. the to be in. this has to be much more engaged with the rest of the world. for that why the rest of the world will invade us less w l was not the only mind in the house. some sending to prevail with adam.

demand out who actually represented was a new kind of europe should prevent. and i do think that this eric and tone and the lack of respect that is coming from the european union towards africa is part of the problem leading to africans, perhaps thinking that savvy salvation is going to come from russia. and that is the kind of european mindset that africans would like to at least engage with. and not that i can tell it that we've seen from mr. brown, people in africa, the european for what the. we see them as the divert aid that would have otherwise helped people in africa and the pilot on all in the drug. the one come that have gone to ukraine following the conflict has really opened the eyes of, of the rest of the world with regards to where we are placed in terms of priorities

for the european continent. they opened up for the following. that conflict well come ukrainians with open arms, while africans get chase bank one, they had small little pinky boats, and they have to make that fade for crossing again to the motherland. russia has also reacted to burrell se meant by putting into the traditional close times of him, russia and african nations, and urging the west to stop obstructing russian agricultural supplies to the continent. auntie is don't cause her as the details latimer pudding, just wrapped up a press conference after a meeting of the supreme council of the eurasian economic union and at the top of the agenda were subjects specifically focused on trade and energy. but i also heard a bit from vladimir putin about the kind of support that russia's been getting

specifically on the african continent. i was able to ask him what he had to say about a recent comment made by just set barrell, that people who support russian africa support vladimir putin and russia because they don't exactly know who vladimir putin is. or don't know where don boss is on a map. well, in response, vladimir putin pointed to the deep historical ties that russia has with africa, dating back to soviet times when much economic aid was delivered by russia to the continent for industrial and ekinite general economic development. now, the russian president also touched upon the subject of former german chancellor angle and merkle, and he said that she had deceived russia when it comes to the minced protocols that were supposed to end the war in ukraine. years before russia launched its special military operation, let's take a lesson. but shriek, lorell is a major political figure of the contemporary era. like people, one said about bresner with african knows what russia ease,

what at ease african owes rush his role in his liberation from colonialism. there is almost no single african country that has not received our political media, economic and mil to support. we have very persistent, friendly relations with african states. if those officials, you mentioned earlier, nowhere africa ease and what conditional the peoples of africa are in. they wouldn't obstruct the russian food and fertilizer shipments to africa, which the crops and the rescuing of hundreds of thousands of people from death, from starvation to pans, just the great of them, it was a be honest for me, piece was completely unexpected. this is disappointing. frankly speaking, i do not expect to hear that from the former chancellor. i always hoped that the german sheep was genuine. yes, they were a new crate sight supported it. but nevertheless, it seemed to me that the german leadership had always true. and for settlement that we agreed upon us in particular, during the means negotiations with what we have heard, only confirms that we did everything right in terms of sort of the special military

operation. why? because it turns out that nobody wants to fulfill the men's agreements. former ukraine and present porsha unco said he signed them, but didn't plan to fulfill them. sheila, what am i putting also spoke a bit about europe's decision to establish a price cap on russian oil exports. saying that this is going to be a bad decision for the entire global energy market. and specifically for consumers as well. he said a few words about the ukraine conflict, saying that it's going to take a long time to regulate the conflict and the situation there. as well as the nuclear doctrine, he also spoke about russia's nuclear doctrine, saying that russia would only launch a nuclear weapon if one was fired at it. that's in contrast, of course, to washington's nuclear doctrine, which takes a preemptive approach. so that's basically a wrap up of the main points the vladimir putin made at this press conference here because he knows the inside of on the case of a russian of position,

figure india. yes. in the was recently centers a he is in prison for threading false information about the ukraine conflict. his remarks about val are on our website r t dot cook, exhibit the man dubbed by the west as the merchant of death has been released from us prison for a more than a decade in custody and is now back in his homeland russia. he was freed, in a high level prison exchange between lucko and washington. they exhibit a landed at from ab pull to in the russian capital on thursday night. he was sentenced by you as authorities to 25 years in prison, by in 2012 on charges of army terrace, and conspiring to kill american citizens. his thoughts, he denied those accusations. mister booth was traded for american buffy will play brittany grey mare who had been convicted of drug offenses in russia. she pleaded

guilty and was sentenced to 9 years behind bars. earlier this year, the thought was conducted in the united arab emirates of the month of negotiations . i think was the 1st to interview victor booth following his release with a phone conversation recorded for us by russian parliament member and public figure . maria bertina is a boot shed, his thoughts and emotions about his long and difficult case. tell me, please, how he is selling mt a chair back home cushing, him another, was of still need to realize these feelings. i like to words to describe it all. my wife is here with me now, so we have finally reunited because a person, what do you think of the timing of the exchange? why now leaning out, you know, when it comes to american politics, any view and why something happened would be inappropriate. just happened and thank god it did what you what you it was up and there be a session to western media claims you. i a very important person from the russian

government interestingly for president potentially. what would you say to that then? i don't, i don't think i'm somehow important in the sphere of russian politics. the thing is all this time i've been supported by moscow, by all of you here. as you see, we understand what is happening to russians abroad now. and russia simply cannot stand it. and it was important because just that russia does not abandon the song people re la distasteful. do you see yourself as a victim of the west? through so far? they asked me mercer, i don't think so. you see, you have to be very careful with the terminology here. i think it's just a consequence of the fact that the west believes they didn't finish us off in the 19 ninety's when the soviet union began to disintegrate. and since they see that russia is now striving towards independence, choosing its own life, depending on what people want that shocking for their grand or. and they think they can just well break us up again. divide, rush into many parts. so discord among the russian people of various nationalities so that some kind of civil wars begin again in thus gain control of russian territory were monkey garage door. some believe that exchanging you for us

basketball player is a sign of washington's weakness, which do you think they caved in order to kansas city? as for americans, other politics always take place at a childish level of street boys. look, you're weak. you didn't stay on the challenge. i'm sure the russian leadership and decision makers don't think by such categories, whether you're weak or you aren't weak to power, never needs any kind of cheap manifestation. there's no point proving this exchange is a sign of weakness or strangle. i think the very fact that the swap the or took place 1st of all means that common ground was found. otherwise the steel would not have happened yesterday. meal are, there is another america knows sir. they are sit senior centers in a thick raheem penal colony in russia, pul whelan. he was detained in moscow in 2018 and convicted of espionage. 2 years later with alex rest, his appointment about the recent prisoner thought specifically about decisions by the american authorities. i am very disappointed that more has not been done for my

release, especially as the 4th anniversary of my arrest approaches. i was led to believe that things were moving in the right direction and that the governments were negotiating and that something would happen fairly soon. i was arrested for a crime that never occurred. i don't understand why i am still sitting here. it says brittany gwinnett was a wool suitable for the current newest facility, linda. the american news outlet, cnn, and gushing place for her julia recent woocommerce. brittany greiner represents everything in this country. she's female, she's l u b t q. she's black and she's extraordinary. when she walks off that plane, when her wife hugs her, when that moment happens, that is going to be decade defining people. remember that and it should show us what we can do where we stand again, this is all politics again. why were she chosen and not. busy well, in purely politics again,

she fit the stereotype of biden's political base of support. right. so he wants to cater to them. he, he's free. he's brought home one of their own it's, it's entirely political decision because certainly ok, she's a very talented and successful. amazing basketball player, but aren't all lives equal to we all be equal. i mean paul, well, i'm not a great basketball player far as i know. and, but isn't he also have rights as an american citizen? why did they choose him? well, again, this is purely political, it was a political decision why she was chosen and not him. he's someone who is most likely we could probably guess is probably probably a conservative. so we can leave him in the prison of moscow. but let's say the l g b t will save the lesbian basketball player. that's very important. john is posing pain that has spoken highly about future pros, license in his country and the middle east following an unprecedented suit of

summits with go states hosted by saudi arabia, c d t n correspondent. he and jen. she has the details. chinese presidents, champagne, and leaders of the arab world have wrapped up what many describe as their highest level diplomatic exchanges. so far a lot of statements and results came out of their 3 summits and bilateral talks. and while i followed them, i was able to see 3 very consistent themes. firstly, the friendly relations between china and the arab world are the result of deep mutual trust. china and arab countries support each other in maintaining sovereignty territorial integrity and the right of self determination. they championed the principle of non interference in internal affairs and advocate for true multilateralism in the multi polar world order. china supports the resolution of international and regional issues under multilateral platforms, like the u. n. and g 20. and many eric countries stand by china on key issues from

shins, young, hong kong to tie want secondly, or the deep economic ties between china and aero countries. with china's huge energy market and the rich natural resources of the middle east leaders discussed and hands and collaboration in oil, gas, and clean energy and using the chinese to an to settle energy deals. also, while china has a well rounded industry chain, the middle east has a huge need for infrastructure building and high tech upgrades as it looked to diversify away from oil. that's why many of the statements from the past few days, often included cooperation agreement on areas such as 5 g, e commerce, audible bill, medical finance, and nuclear energy as well. china and gulf cooperation council countries will establish a forum on the peaceful use of nuclear energy and nuclear technology and set up a nuclear safety center to train talents. the 3rd theme is the strong willingness between china and arab countries to explore

a long term friendship. china's president spoke of his desire to build a shared future in the new era. what started the relationship centered around most the energy has now evolved into not only industrial and investment collaboration, but also many cultural exchanges as well. leaders not about initiatives such as language scores and media collaboration as they strive for an ever evolving friendship in the years to come down to see from c t n 4 r t h o political risk. alice ross flying goal says of saudi arabia and china. i've been seeking to diversify that trade partners. it's inevitable. it's inevitable that saudi arabia and china would look to expand their relations across different spheres. and why is that? well, frankly, n b s has said. so he said that he wants to diversify the economy, diversify trading partners,

day even if relations with the us were better. there's been some friction between saudi arabia in the united states. recently. i think saudi arabia would still be pursuing this. and obviously for china, they, they've been very active in the middle east for decades. said they've had close relationships with many of the arab countries going back 5060 years long before trying to establish diplomatic relations with israel. but again, i think we should really look at this as 2 countries that are diversified, they're trading partners. the energy obviously being an important component of that shoddy radiated makes other kinds of outbound investments. is party diversifying the economy with the dollars it generates from the oil trade? and china is very active in overseas infrastructure projects. and that's something that saudi arabia is offering an opportunity to do as well. hunger is foreign

minister said brussels has been committing political blackmail against the member state of his opposition to providing weaponry to neighboring crane. who said with, there's practically no form of political blackmail from brussels that's not been used against our country has no brussels. and the international liberal propaganda machine will not be indiscriminate in the future. so, i mean, that's what you got. what i see someone can really easily oppose a package of anti russian sanctions and being towed in a proposal that would have allocated another 18000000 euros of military aid to cave . we heard from a global policy expert in budapest who says hungry is covered, riff, with the leadership in brussels. has it been a long time in the making one of those hungary, i denies it, but i'm sure that that have a role in it. i mean, after all, they're asking, why are we spending all this money on your grade, which is not

a member of the european union and not a member of nato. so this money is being transferred to them. wow. hungary, which is a member of the european union, the member of nato is being denied is being denied funds over all of law issues. and that's also being denied funds of cosy, you know, the coven recovery funds. they're saying that they are claiming that hungry has been put forward a reasonable plan as to how they're going to spend the money. so hungry is being denied some 13000000000 euros. that's a lot of money. and so i think that plays a role in a feeling of frustration on the bottom line is, is the we're, we're not getting any money yet. we're supposed to sign off on money for ukraine. so it doesn't really make very much sense. it's clear that the hungarians are not

going to be given any money. there's always going to be some road block that the, the brussels will and say, well, we don't like this plan. i mean, whatever, plan the hungarians come up with. so the issue of corruption, you know, somehow no other country in europe apparently has a problem with a transparent government procurement process. so, but except for hungary and so whatever plan the hungarians come up, we say, well look here, you know, this is a transparent process. process is not transparent enough, we're not going to give you any money. so the, the brussels is obviously going to keep playing this game of withholding bonds. and in the hope that, you know, hungary will fall down on its knees. since 2014, many women have volunteered to join the boss militia. next, a documentary tells

a story. i will be back on the top of the hour with to what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very critical time. time to sit down and talk with my kids, given them with.
