national shylie your get when you bought, when you can i'm what's the, the, the by the, the the, the latest round of ukrainian artillery shelling reportedly killed 3 civilians. local authorities say residential areas where it targeted as homes are destroyed. are to speak 6 simply to victor, the man, the, the merchant of death and the west. following his release from the u. s. jail and that prisoner swap between moscow and washington and other still need to realize these feelings. i lack the words to describe it all. my wife is here with me now. so we have finally reunited more revelations emerged from this. so name, twitter files and the lease documents for port to show the company's decision.

donald trump was a long time in the meeting with staff members helping allegedly spend months looking for a presentable with the around the clock across the world. this is our team to national i'm, you know, with your early weekend news run out of the welcome we begin the broadcast and on us where 3 people have reportedly been killed. ukrainian forces unleashed a barrage of artillery fire on residential areas in the regional capital done yet. that is according to local authorities. now this house was engulfed in flames after it was hit by shelling. and as you can see, completely raised to the ground, and apartment building was also heavily damaged and fires destroyed nearby vehicles . the entire neighborhood. in fact, we're showing you here is residential without any military installations. the

official se ukrainian forces repeatedly shell, this city on friday. this is some more of the aftermath seen in the daylight multiple buildings in this city center where damaged authorities also stayed. ukrainian grad rocket artillery system was used in the attacks. now that type of weapon is generally not precise, its use to target large areas and cause massive destruction. russia pointed to the ongoing shelling up in the asking the latest un security council meeting in which there were also concerns raised the but arm supplied to key of ending up in criminal hands. law school, some buster said ukrainian forces have been using western supplied weaponry to kill civilians across on us was when he did of the onions. a real massacre with the use of western weapons has been taking place into nets can recent weeks as ukraine

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. 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 you and chamber. i'm just before it began. the attack on done asked had already begun. so the remarks made by the russian ambassador were quite relevant as he was describing what was going on. he described attacks on civilians . he described a 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 postpone it would've been among the supplied weapons. the u. s. high mars multiple launch rockets systems are particularly noteworthy. 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. 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 representatives of teeth themselves. have admitted that not a single attack with a highmore system has taken place without the consent to 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 ide state's claims, they are, it would seem that the number of civilians killed in dannetta can. lance can other places eyes, perhaps intentional. he went on to say that rushes 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 these weapons that the states are 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, when a 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. it is a warning. a 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 us 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 the key of 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. get quite a bit of interest about this next story. b, e use top, a diplomat has put himself in rather an awkward situation after insulting the

intelligence of africans who express support for russian usurper l said during the week they probably don't know. quote, where dunbar says, or even vladimir putin is by russia, is able to the fled, blame to east reality and to find an audience in some parts of the world. i've seen in the tv screen, it is an african young people on the streets. obama, go with billboard saying boot dean sang, you have saved a dom bus and now you will save us. it's a really shock it. well, you can see that these people don't know where the dorm versus maybe then don't even know who is 14, but they are getting mobilized on the streets. and they see some capital of a country who is a candidate to become member, to be

a union. you have to go to got michael, have to go to the balcony. and you were in the balcony. so thanks. happy birthday, mister put it. while the comment is 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 gone as well as the burrell, really and not just racist which offend many on the continent, but they also come to be expected the kind of cake thought that have led many european countries to come up africa, divide a 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 science comments really put, paid to what we on the continent. that 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. mister brown does not have the wherewithal with words. he keeps saying the same thing. statement is not only about africans, but people of the rest of the world. true. how is he able to travel the world and field, represent europe and a global phase of community that considers itself leaders, and such commons and such guises 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 the garden. the garden has to go to the jungle. it will be and this has to be much more engage with the rest of the world. for that, why the rest of the world will invade us less. barella was not the only

mind in the house. some sanity prevailed with as lem demit out, who actually represented was a new kind of europe should represent. 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 came mentality 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 drugs. 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 case, beg, one, the small little being he both and they have to make that fade for crossing again to the motherland. victor boot the man done by the west of the merchant of that has been released from a u. s. prison falling more than a decade in custody. back in his homeland russian, the businessman was freed in a high level prisoner exchange between moscow and washington. mister booths, landed on airport in the russian capital on thursday night in 2012. he was sentenced by us authorities to a quarter of a century in prison on charges of arming terrorists and conspiring to kill american

citizens. the no 55 year old staunchly denied those accusations. he was traded for american brittany greiner, who had been convicted of drug offenses in russia. the basketball player pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 9 years behind bars. in the summer, the swap was conducted in the united arab emirates, after months of negotiations. warranty was the 1st i'd like to interview victor boot following his release with a phone conversation recorded forrest by russian parliament member maria, bitter, who herself had served a prison term in the us. tell me, please, how are you feeling now that you're back home? so shoot him another was of i still need to realize these feelings. i lack the words to describe it. all my wife is here with me now. so we have finally reunited schedule person. what do you think of the timing of the exchange? why now, leaning out so you know, when it comes to american politics, any view and why something happened would be inappropriate, and it just happened and thank god, it did what you, what you, it was up and then for your session to western media claims you,

i a very important person from the russian government and personally for president potentially. what would you say to that? then you 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 its own people, right. lot distasteful. do you see yourself as a victim of the west semester? fall dash mushy. 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 credit. and they think they can just well break us up again, divide russian to many parts. so to score among the russian people of various nationalities so that some kind of civil wars begin again and thus gain control over russian territory. pneumonia go at edge thought some believe that exchanging

you for you as basketball player is a sign. washington's weakness is, do you think they cave dame, when it comes of sick? as for americans, all their politics always take place at a childish level of street boys? look, you're weak. you didn't stand the challenge. i'm sure the russian leadership and decision makers don't think by such categories, whether you're weak or you're aren't weak, to power, never needs any kind of cheap manifestation. there is no point proving this exchange is a sign of weakness or strength. i think the very fact that this swap deal took place 1st of all means that common ground was found. otherwise the steel would not have happened yesterday. willis, another american who serving a 16 year sentence in a penal colony in russia, paul whelan most attained in moscow in 2018 and convicted of espionage. 2 years after that, the former marine express frustration surrounding the recent prisoner swap, specifically decisions taken by the, by the administration. let's publish. 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. will commentators have alleged the release of brittany grinder rather than poll whelan was more in sync with the current us political agenda. indeed, american news outlets. cnn was gushing in it's praise of her during a recent broadcast brittany going 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 will remember that and it should show us what we can do when we stand together. this is all politics again. why was she

chosen and not all welling purely politics? and again, she fit the stereotype of abiding political base of support. right. so he wants to cater to them. he, he's freed, he's brought home one of their own. it's entirely political decision because certainly ok, she's a very talented and successful, amazing basketball player. but aren't all eyes equal? can we all be equal pole? well, i'm not a great basketball player as 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 blue. it was a political decision why she was chosen and not him. he's someone who is most likely we can probably guess is probably probably a conservative. so we can leave him in, in the president of moscow. but let's say the l g b t save the lesbian basketball player. that's very important. china's president has praised collaboration with gulf states. i made an unprecedented series of summits hosted by saudi arabia and she gin paying said his country would

help set up a nuclear research and security center as part of a strengthening partnership in the region c, g t n. correspondent young chang. she can tell us more about that. chinese president, 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 follow 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 eric countries support each other in maintaining sovereignty territorial integrity and the right of self determination. they champion the principle of non interference in internal affairs, an 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 talent. 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 relationships centered around most the energy has now evolved into not only industrial and investment collaboration, but also many cultural exchanges as well. leaders thought about initiative such as language schools 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 or asia, political risk analyst, russ feingold says that saudi arabia and china have both been seeking to diversify their trade partnerships. it's inevitable. it's inevitable that saudi arabia and china would look to expand their relations across different spheres. and why use that? well, frankly, n b s has said,

so he said that he wants to diversify the economy, diversify trading partners. 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. saudi arabia makes other kinds of outbound investments as parti, diversifying its 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 the opportunity to do as well. the so called twitter files recently revealed by american investigative journalists have reported more explosive claims now, including now the social media giants. been looking for ways to bomb doubles from long before last years. capitol hill on rest of it's cited us, the official reason twitter executives remove trump in part over what one executive called the context surrounding actions by trumping supporters over the course of the election. and frankly, last 4 plus years, the bulk of the internal debate leading to trump's band took place in those 3 january days. however, the intellectual framework was late in the months preceding the capital riots. my tie be, while the twitter of files were initially published last weekend with support from the social networks, new boss, eli musk. they allege that some of the platforms highest ranking staff members

conspired to suppress information that could have been harmful to jo biden's presidential election campaign 2 years ago. in particular that twitter sold out the time to. busy stop the spread of corruption allegations and by biden san hooter. well, we spoke to michael rectinwald's, michael son or 3rd of google archipelago, the digital. good luck on the simulation of freedom. he said the recent revelations prove twitter had basically been functioning as a u. s. government agency, well, it shows that they have been, they had been targeting trump for a long time, and this is just part of an overall establishment campaign to destroy him. i mean, they ran a legal operations to attempt to connect him to russia in the russian collusion narrative and some of the people that worked at twitter, including james baker were also active in that russian collusion expedition. so it

tells me that the twitter has been operating as a state agent, and they had a definite they have trump in the crosshairs, just waiting for him to step over the line or what they consider to be over the line. he never violated twitter rules. they just associated his speech with the violence or the mark violence really that took place on january 6 at the capital. so they were what they were laying and wait, looking for an excuse to ban him from, from the platform. will among other discoveries the twitter files also claim the company shadow by users to quash right wing are in even conservative opinions and then tried to cover it up. a new twitter files investigation reveals that teams of twitter employees build black lists, prevent disfavor tweets from trending,

and actively limit the visibility of entire accounts, or even trending topics all in secret without informing uses. so we now know that twitter employees are allowed to build blacklist, prevents certain tweets from trending and limited the visibility over the entire accounts and all that done in secret without users knowledge. and also it turns out that a shadow banning is a real thing and not the conspiracy. what many people who shadow banning to which are executives and the employee school visibly filtering all the f multiple high level sources confirmed its meaning. we control visibly quite a bit and we control the amplification of your context quite a bit. and normal people do not know how much we do. one twitter engineer told us 2 additional to which amp luis confirmed. it's worth noting that the 2nd batch of so called twitter files game just a few days after ill a mosque fire. the company is attorney who is also a form. i have buried there between the general counsel who had reportedly filtered

what went into the 1st batch of 2 e mails without the one's knowledge of it. if you will take us back. what did twitter say before? in the recent past about the whole shadow by an idea, did they, did they recognize that the company limited account or, or that of a post visibility? did they admit to this? no. and moreover, in 2018, they denied the allegations made by vice news that twitter was leading appearances of prominent republican accounts. we do not shadow ban. you are always able to see the trees from accounts you follow. although you may have to do more work to find them like go directly to their profile, and we certainly don't shadow band based and political viewpoints or ideology. back then we'll see or jack dorothy with quote, we don't shadow ban and we certainly don't shadow band based on political viewpoints. his bands must be on fire right now. sophia little man, the middle man, the big man. what about blow back, what about reaction yet?

what can you tell us about that? yes, people have been doubting the transparency of their company for a while. now. for example, the 20th, when you were survey revealed that 75 percent of americans think that social media platforms, sensor political views that they find objectionable. and not surprisingly, the right way that the specially outrage given that they been accusing twitter of having liberal bias and muting conservative viewpoints in the searches for a while. now, i can't even come up with a hyperbolic way to describe how big this now is. and i feel like they're just getting started in terms of their revelations, this needs to lead directly to criminal prosecution. and they need to paper all of this because there were live in congressional testimony. there were lies in all sorts of public statements where you are not allowed to be lying under the government rules. i want these guys to be charged with crime. this. if this is going on a twitter, it's going on it facebook,

it's going on it instagram. it's going on it you tube, it's going on a google, let's talk about, blowback, sophia, what about consequences these revelations could have, i mean, well, what about twitter potentially changing policy? well, it's hard to say because it all comes down to section $230.00 that provides social media platforms with them. unity from being sued for was being published there because the law treat them as public forums and not as publishers, but ill in moscow, proposed an idea that would give users more control over the accounts. twitter is working on a software update that will show your true account status. so you know, clearly if you've been shadow band, the reason why and how to appeal. well, hopefully, how's, because let's face it, the sex censorship is just out of control. my colleague, sophia nunez and merissa shave there. while michael rectinwald's again believes further details in the scandal will soon be revealed, but possibly only to an extent, because he loved how's business links with the u. s. government?

twitter operated as an organ of the democratic party and the state that they run unilaterally in the united states. so it tells us that twitter has been a propaganda, oregon, and a censorship, oregon, and a surveillance, oregon for the state. and for the democratic party that runs it. we suspected this or rather we knew it now, it's merely just been verified. more information is bound to come out that will indict twitter for these practices and more and probably show collusion with the f b i and the home department of homeland security. these. this is already in the news that homeland security and f. b, i officials both met with social media executives to instruct them as to what content to suppress and ban. so we'll expect more at some point

since, you know, it's not as if elan mosque has no connections with the state. after all, he's got contracts for his space x program with the, with the government. so there could be a moment at which heal reach where he can't go any further with these revelations. we'll see. ah, concerns about anti semitism in front sir emerging again after a per of t. v show host question. there are jewish guests the by 5th traditional religious camp. he was wearing dimming at not appropriate for their broadcast bruises. we the, i want to ask you question, which is concerning many people in the audience, it's not related to medicines. many people are wondering why is the professor wearing a religious symbol in our studio because we're middle result of that. why i, where it's every day. so here for them, i told him that to when we were at the coffee table, hospitals were

a full transparency mix. my where it's every day i didn't do this, especially for your show when it will help whenever you understand, don't you know that are secular ease as our discretion. this is not against religion, but you should keep your religion to yourself. don't you understand? i'm a cohen, why would you want me to keep my religion to myself? i came from israel to where or not to where he palm. the video, the profess a grilled about religious symbol. he as a do its own every morning has divided public opinion. on one hand, there was strong negative reaction. disgusting, anti semitism on french t. v. a professor attacked and belittled for wearing jewish symbols. why do you wear a religious symbol in the studio? keep your jewish identity for yourself is this 19 thirties, europe shocking anti semitism on french t v. where a professor is harassed and shamed by the host for.
