12:02 am
warn you. the interview was filled with the person being held in captivity. the u. k. prides itself for an overwhelming amount of support. it's provided for ukraine in the war against russia. london has scooped its own stockpiles of weapons, too near critical levels. it has brought tens of thousands of ukrainian soldiers to britain's training sites and claim they've evolved into proper commandos. but now the smith is ready to bust overseas training did nothing for this fresh ukrainian captive moved one or will in september they called me. i got a draft notice and i joined the army here. that is what happened. then. we'll put a full, i began training. what training? nor will i was abroad in england. gutless. how did you get there? got them on a plane. they dropped us off somewhere in england, then we wrote a bus for around 9 hours. did the plane take off from ukraine today?
12:03 am
no, from poland, support for the british military training program was covered in an enticing veil of mystery. the lucky few who found themselves at the u. k. boot camp had no previous compet experience and had no idea of what was to come. but the expectations were high. nath proof so that when we were drafted, we only went through a little athletic training. we were in a list in alphabetical order, and the 1st 180 were sent to england. those who are further down the list state school is, are there any who served in the military among those 180 recruits, one or 2 day one of training kicked off in a promising manner. candidates received a full set of gear, from armored vests to under shirts that they got to keep to. but it all went downhill from there. the trainees who expected to learn military cunning were taken to class one, a one at which most were spectacularly bad. and we had instructors from sweden,
12:04 am
a gear country of what exercises did you have, which it is exhibition. it's a funny thing was for 2 days they taught us how to hold the weapon. if as you say, none of the 180 recruits had ever held weapons in their hands. maybe that was the right thing to do is to thought them would have fucked. and the instructors were shocked. i worked with wood and the others worked in. i tear somewhere else. it's like when you get an a, b, c book in 1st grade, when people see a weapon for the 1st time in their life, it's hard for them to handle it. why they were always shouting, you shoot one of your own like that. what did you do next? we were learning how to disassemble weapons more than the tactics of movement. what machinery did you learn to use? no machinery. no, no store co author. we only learned to use british rifles and a k 40 sevens and the n law grenade launcher. did you should the and law not even thought that if we had copies,
12:05 am
nobody would give us real launchers. google has done what kind of training did you expect? or we expected more jewel from here. what exactly did you imagine before getting there? personally, i expected something else. sometimes it wasn't even interesting. a month of training passed quickly. it was time to head back to ukraine. instead of a well coordinated unit, the ukranian command got a mob in fancy uniform with discipline issues. 2 of 330 of us joined one squadron. from what i understood, they sent us to a squadron that suffered heavy losses of c o. o did those trained in england get along with the others? there were no conflicts, no conflicts. and between those trained, there were conflicts between ourselves. tell me about that. there were polemics about who is higher up. maybe somebody wanted to present himself in a better way. people threatened each other threatens yes. why?
12:06 am
because o 5. and somebody wouldn't like the other person pointing at something. why are you doing this? i'll cut off your finger. like, what do you mean didn't like that, the other person pointing at something or, for example, conflict along the lines of i put a vase somewhere and you put it somewhere else. why? and the conflict rage is on the way of such disputes. over little things happen maybe because the people are at war. it wasn't long until the time came to put the skills learned to the test. and the very 1st combat encounter revealed that the reality of war in the dorm bass is drastically different from the grill site. simulations that shift cur mitchell. i fear which we were task to clear. the wood things went badly there. we didn't even have time to jump off the infantry fighting vehicle. artillery started to hit us, the fire was very intense. did you use any of the skills that you learned in england, or at least try to? no, which is why when your bill there was nowhere to use them. we went forward and the
12:07 am
artillery hit us. i just got down then stood up, looked around, ran a bit, then got down and so on. later they said to us, to change position. it was around a 150 meters from the main forces. we got there got an a trench and came under fire . they fired everything they had at us. there were 5 of us left. the deputy commander had a radio set. he asked for help, but there wasn't any. i was injured but not evacuated. the one with the radio set said, i'll come back later. he went and never returned. then 2 of us were killed and a strike. the other one was killed when he tried to move back, so i was left injured and alone. after a little time, i heard the cause to surrender. i raised my hands and that's it. it's hardly this man's fool that swedish and stroked has failed to turn him a handyman into an effective fighter within a month's time. but at least he was lucky to keep his life and learn his lesson.
12:08 am
there. when i return home, i won't go to war any more. what if you are mobilized again? what are to what was or if they will tighten me with jail? i'll refuse to the the commanders. let me down. i left on my own among the former u. s. intelligence officer, rebecca ca flir, believe that the price cap on russian energy will lead to greater difficulties. she says that bite and need to step up, noting that his quote, nonsensical policies are what led us into the crisis. for the united states, we want ukraine to win, but given that this goal is simply on achievable, the baton administration needs to step in and really act as an adult. so what's happening right now, we again, effectively reducing the supply which going it is going to push the price way up, and it's going to ricochet against us the united states. we already walking into
12:09 am
a recession in against europe. these types of nonsensical policies by the buy number, the sion is what got us here in the 1st place. meanwhile, european countries are set to expand their sanctions on russian goods, adding 200 more russian citizens to their travel band list. the commission president also added that the block has sent over $19000000000.00 euros to ukraine in 2022, and will continue to support kiev as long as it takes an additional $2000000000.00 euros have been approved for the expansion of the european piece facility, which assist in arming ukraine, that's according to the polish prime minister. scott ritter, a former us marine corps intelligence officer, says that the sanctions will hardly affect the russian economy, but will most likely backfire on western countries. is victory even possible for
12:10 am
ukraine? the answer is no. ukraine simply cannot win this conflict. basic military math. the revolves around the competing notions over a burn rate and replenishment rate. simply dictate the outcome, ukraine is burning through resources faster than they can be replenished, or there's nothing the west can do to. to disrupt the russian economy at this point, these iterations of sanctions are purely political gestures by europe to, to basically have european politicians say, look how strongly are look, how firm we are. but they're back for the bottom line is it's up to russian economy . that's paltry. it's european union economies faltering. and the sole reason for this is because of the boomerang effect of the sanctions that they're trying to impose on russia, but which are ricocheted back and doing extensive damage to europe. ah,
12:11 am
paris supreme court has ruled that out that president federal castillo must remain in pre trial detention for 18 months accused of inciting a rebellion. the former leader will weigh in custody while the new government built a case against them. because theo doesn't believe opposition acted alone. the visit of the u. s. ambassador to the government palace was not free, nor was it in favor of the country. it was an order to take the troops out into the streets and massacre my defenceless people. and incidentally clear the way from mining exploitation, as in the case of congo, tia maria and others, the peruvian press, will not only remain silent about this, but will easily deny it. the accusation comes as peruse, new leadership announces a 30 day state of national emergency. that's in response to castillo supporters entering their 2nd week of protest. demonstrators face
12:12 am
a violent crack down by the new government whose actions have drawn support, not criticism from the u. s. government. ah, ah. federal casteel was impeached for attempting to dissolve the countries congress that had a mere 10 percent approval rating. at the time the decision was perceived as unconstitutional and the very same congress removed him from office,
12:13 am
handing power over to his vice president. dina bullard deck has garnered praise from the west and is supported by peruse far, right, which has driven the people to the streets and droves in support of the ousted president. although peruvians did not elect the new president who also remains on popular among much of the electorate, her presidency is strongly backed by the u. s. here's what political analyst didio ortiz had to say about the ex president casteel supporters and the role the u. s. is playing in the current situation, castillo work and he said free to day, he could go to the palace. you will have thousands of people with him. you will have the crowd of people with him. many officers would hesitate to resist an order from him. those are the facts of the matter. they will try to keep them in jail as much as they can for as long as they can in the harshest condition that they can
12:14 am
possibly do to president allegedly former president. i think that this is a house of cards. the peruvian state is going all out suppressed the protest. they have troops on the ground, i've been murdering to people. they have been meeting with the ambassador to the united states to pursue elisa, can i met with the minister of the fence of peru just a couple of days before the co the u. s. government has always had its hands in politics. if you. busy look at the layout of politics, there is plenty of and cios from germany, from the united states, from britain that seek to rome, if you will, are the next generation of political operatives in room period. so that is a western influence. busy and cios, another operatives can try to take away our country and install another the colony of the united states and the african liter simon has concluded in
12:15 am
washington with u. s. secretary of state anthony blank and speaking to journalist. to wrap up the event, he didn't miss the opportunity. however, to criticize russia, make a comparison to the west own colonial past. it's very powerful because you hear countries that are, we're here in washington this week. ghana, kenya, so many others that have been the victims of imperialism in the past. and who see that now happening to ukraine by russia. throughout the 3 days, some at the united states declared the importance of the region and solving global problems in a bed to compete with africa's other partners, china and russia. the u. s. has already fine deals worth $15000000000.00 and voice support for the african unions initiative for permanent g 20 membership. with the u . s. secretary of defense accusing both russia and china of destabilizing
12:16 am
activities in the regions. asia responded by urging the u. s. to stop using africa as a power games arena. however, not all african countries were invited to the summit. guinea sudan arethia molly and bertino faso didn't receive an invitation due to their contrasting political views. we spoke with locals in those countries who shared their opinions about us intentions in the region. with a lot of it, france in the usa, a rejected in africa. it's due to their politics. this initiative is a way to preserve their image in africa, all wishes to have a trusted partner, who is honest and to bring good ideas and the right equipment to help us to fight this phenomenon on our territory. a. it's an opportunity for joe biden to bring the us back to their former position in africa because united states of america are trying to take advantage of if i was doing anything for a long time,
12:17 am
we've been under the leadership of europeans. it's them who colonized this and they all the origin of all these things to show. i believe the u. s. is targeting europe's place in africa. we've been lucky. we spoke with john kerry octo host of the whistleblowers, who thinks that the real reason for not inviting these countries is a lack of benefit for the you, us. even when the new governments of these countries have pledged a return to democracy and of in some cases scheduled democratic elections that still wasn't good enough for the united states. and so these 5 countries weren't invited. and i'll add that these 5 countries are 5 that in which the united states can't make any money right now, russia is very popular in africa. china, a china is very popular in africa. and the western countries are not there, not because they ignored the needs of the child of the african people and the
12:18 am
african governments for many, many years. the u. s. presence is literally a one of, of war. the only real us presence in any of these countries is a paramilitary force. look at molly, for example, or mauritania, or any of the other of this a hell countries need air. we only know by accident because of a leak that the united states has a military presence there. a military presence that has not been approved by congress, whose job it is just to, to kill people. and to try to keep these host governments in, in power. and while the u. s. claims that that met was a success due to the signing of multiple multi $1000000000.00 contracts, the guardian president urged africans not to rely on western money. we must work together to change africa's narrative which is characterized by
12:19 am
disease, hunger, poverty in the legal migration. if we stop being beggars and spend african money inside the continent, africa will not need to ask for respect from anyone. we will get the respect we deserve. the president address his african colleagues during the summer in washington, where african leaders hope to find help in solving the continents challenges that has gone of faces an inflationary of over 40 percent combined with a high national debt. to mitigate the country's economic downturn, the international monetary fund has already agreed to provide gonna with a $3000000000.00 loan. the deb crisis is a real threat to around half of african countries and most of the debt is owed to the united states, despite washington's warnings. about the chinese dep trap, the numbers show that african governments o 3 times more debt to western private lenders than to china. we spoke with a pan african commentator who thinks that africa should take measures to be more
12:20 am
independent. africa in is so. so good. it's good resources and good minerals, it's good enough enough enough human capacity to and she monetize the resources that we possess. right now. the variations that we have with for in states is only benefiting these foreign companies more than us as africans. this is a new crew clooney, as in a strategic that's been used by the west in countries to, to, to, to, to keep having power over african estate is, is, is to who might, because i'm going to have mine. we need to have a bigger control of the economy by africans for africans because
12:21 am
this is, this is us, ours is our land, or is a continent we need to. no one is going to see of rico if we don't stand up together. the un general assembly has adopted a russian drastic resolution to combat the glorification of naziism and racial discrimination. but the majority of countries voting in its favor. the resolution lays out a plan to fight fascism and other factors which fuel racism, discrimination, xenophobia, and other intolerances over $100.00 members voted in favor of the bell while 50, including the u. s. ukraine, germany and italy voted against debts. ah, a spin of narratives that's a controversial description of the work of russian journalists by the new york
12:22 am
times basing the accusations on a legend mass leak of work, correspondence from russian state media employees spinning together a counter narrative for tens of millions of viewers, russian propagandists plucked clips from american cable news right wing, social media and chinese officials. they latched on to claims that western embargoes of russian oil would be self defeating. that the united states was hiding secret by weapon research labs in ukraine in the china was a loyal ally against a fragment in west. let's take a closer look at some of the statements claimed as being false. some u. s. media outlets publish reports about the backfiring of anti russian sanctions, which have heard american and european consumers. it also turns out that close ties between moscow, beijing are not an imaginary narrative of russian media. contrarily to what the new york times claims and claims about ukraine's fake bio labs are not so fake. after all, take a listen to what u. s. under secretary victoria knew and had to say about that when questioned under
12:23 am
oath in congress. ukraine has a biological research facilities, we are working with the ukrainians on how they can prevent any of those research materials from falling into the hands of a russian forces should they approach. in other accusations, the new york times also claimed that russian journalists receive instructions from the country security agencies on how to cover the ukrainian conflicts with russian producers. apparently asking chinese colleagues for story ideas and trying to quote curry favor with beijing officials, legal and media analyst, lionel says the new york times article is simply infantile. first, my reaction. so what i mean, let me ask you something. can you tell me what country, what business, what product, what candidate, what,
12:24 am
what network goes out of his way to promote and publish bad news about itself? what country during a war or military operation says, you know what, this is too good. this is to popular, go out and dig for something that makes us look like we're losing. i mean, this is, this is and same. and i love the way the personalize it. she's not, for example, russian or you or your credit or, or the actual fact of the matter. it's who's involved. it's an infant tile. it's infantile, the wave if point fingers. but here's the best part, who's reading this? who, who is pouring through the new york times? what i era is this. i've got news for you that as we say this out, that dog don't hunt, that train has left the station. no, but he cares. nobody's listening to this. nobody's going to change their opinion.
12:25 am
it's almost as though they say, let's have one last gasp at an attempt to do something. the headquarters of french president and manuel microns party were reportedly rated by prosecutors as part of an inquiry into the government's usage of consulting firms. prosecutors suspect that several of consulting firm mackenzie's employees, worked as volunteers on microns victoria's presidential campaigns in 20172022. the investigation focuses on whether there was any false election campaign accounting, as well as if favoritism was a factor in selecting who the lucrative government contracts went to. french president micron had previously given a speech in burkina faso capital, promising that france would in finance groups involved in corrupt shane la,
12:26 am
force and novice got through france will no longer invest solely in order to conduct a government to government transactions with no benefits for local people, it will no longer invest and allow major groups to sometimes take part in organized corruption. but it will be vigilant. along with you, mister president, and all african leaders and young people to ensure that others to day do not replicate. sometimes with an incredible kind of fascination, the mistakes we made together in the past for investors from all over the world and for the whole african continent. i want us to share this requirement. i will have for france. we spoke with that how co boob associate professor at denison university and the president of the global institute for sustainable prosperity. who said that the investigation shows the failure of the french public administration's traditions. i think the, the investigation will take its diamond will reveal its, its outcome. but,
12:27 am
but really what's, what's important from, from this mckinsey gate for situation is 2 things. one is a reflection of the failure of the french public administration tradition. and number 2, it reflects the failure of the euro zone system that squeezed public finances to the point of not allowing the french government to actually hire and train and administer its own strategies and policies. i think the potential consequences would be similar to what happened to nicholas acquisition, with a potential of prison sentence for individuals who are directly implicated. you know, providing volunteers during a campaign from a major, multinational corporations with the understanding that the government will reciprocate the elected government will reciprocate by providing hundreds of millions of dollars worth of preferential treatment and contracts to the same.
12:28 am
multinational corporations is that, if proven to be a crime would, would definitely bring quite a few people down. we've been microns party and also within mackenzie as a firm. in the latest episode of our team going underground option ra times, the speaks with professor juan jay who deconstruct the us stereotypes about china. you can watch the full version on saturday. in the meantime, here's a short preview in europe and the united states, quite apart from the fact that the saudis, the u. e. the middle east is routinely condemned over human rights issues. china is a routinely on the bbc and cnn and other television. no broadcasters, as a, as a grocer, human rights violator, of them all, with concentration camps. i'm not sure quite how they argue the choice about the fact that the saudi arabia is the guardian of the holy places of his slum. whilst
12:29 am
china is supposed to simultaneously be anti muslim, but is the narrative last, this narrative has 3 part number one, and only that is loose like the people who accused china and other countries as the human rights violations. it looks like them perfect. they don't have any problems that i'm in my lation of human rights, which is our slowly luncheon nachos. if you had history all at present, those people who are accused china, i mean the people are united states or europe. they have a very bloody history of violation of human rights. if you are to blame the 1st was to blame united states, try to weapon nice little stars, child, punish others. for example, the use your statements use a payment suit, tried asenjoe against russia. if united states trying to use us dollars, which is like local currency, global when we're currently at a womanizer for political purpose. of course, the st. louis sheely message to anyone who use us honest because it could be
12:30 am
a very electron lift. next run, good. united states, i use dollars to panza. ah, and those were the hours, most vital news stories from around the world for more 20 for southern news had over to r t dot com. and don't forget to follow us on odyssey rumble and gab. we'll see you again next hour. ah, oh, fresh in the west, survive the cold war because both recognize and practice, the concept of indivisibility of security. one country should not attempt to attain security at the expense of another country. this is exactly what the west has done against russia to the point of claiming russia has no right to any security guarantees.
