the country itself has really been in the midst of, of instability since the civil war vent. okay. in 2019, despite the former colonizer france, deploying some 1600 troops to that country, to restore peace and stabilize some of the conflicts we have seen in that region, that has been systematically. and over a long period of time, tensions between north and south, which have led to some of the conflicts that we have seen. and the area itself that the central african republic is around this a hell region, which has really been dealing with insurgency for the better part of the decade. and it remains a political and conflict hot bed in the african region. the administrator

12:06 pm
poland has been directly involved in helping ukraine carry out. attacks on russia as according to arti, thought, as he said, that drones used to bomb crimea were built by an american company, and later outfitted in poland before being handed over to keith. it's been determined that the avi onyx and control stations of the drones were manufactured by american company scepter works, which performed their initial calibration and testing at scottsdale airport. and arizona analysis of the electronic units of intercept drones showed that the ukrainian military also used these. you avi's to attack infrastructure facilities in cell estoppel as well as the belgrade curse conver on his regions. joining me in the studio to discuss the challenges ortiz, marina cars, or if i, thanks for coming in marie not. so what else do we know about this case? at the moment, or the other side of it is the fact that poland is involved in this because
12:07 pm
according to the information that we found from the sources that spoke. so r t who are familiar with the matter, they claim that the final assembly, as well as flight test, took part in, in poland in the of there are so airports of which of course has been, is used by the u. s. a. nate, so as the main supply hub for ukraine's armed forces. and they also said that the installation of payload, for example, the flight mission and the launch itself or carried out from odessa and also crew boy rog, which is in central ukraine. and this is water is now being shown as proof of a direct involvement of the us as well as poland and receive the military help on the hacks that also took place, not only in ukraine, but also on russian soil. has there been any explanation regarding the timing of the revelation? well, the timing, this is what's sensitive because we've seen an escalation of drone attacks in
12:08 pm
recent weeks in particular and several supple. so naturally, russia had experts looking into these attacks as well as what they recovered some of the intercepted drones. and that's when they started doing all the investigatory work. and this is what they found. and also, let's forget that this comes after of russia's foreign ministry war in time and time again, that if we see any information, for example, the us providing a longer range missiles than that would be crossing a red line. we already know over the so many weapons that the west supplies already bought. there were some red lines that russia kept warning time and time again. do not cross this red line. we do not want to see us involvement in this. and once again, this is what we see, they promise not to do it. and here, let's take less than what russia had warned before we call on the united states and its allies, not across the red lines, they have approached stop pumping. the regime with leaf alarms it will only lead to
12:09 pm
new victims and destruction as well as further prolonging the conflict. like you just said, washington has repeatedly denied any direct involvement in the ukraine consulate. well, claiming that it doesn't want to supply care with weapons that could be used to potentially hit targets inside russia. so how does that into those claims now for those claims, look, silly, really because according to this information that were received, this is what we're talking about. that the fact that the last was supplying drones that were not only created in the united states, but there were them refitted in poland and there were flight tests as well being carried out. and then we saw them attacks on russian soil and also let so forget what the united states always say is that these are defensive weapons. this is how they justify it. so what we said so far, this is purely for defense, but we've seen that there were used, according to the specialist that spoke to r t c that they were being used for terrorist attacks on russian soil. once again,
12:10 pm
this is what the us has to say about this. we have not provided ukraine with weapons that is to use inside of russia. we've been very clear that these are defensive supplies. we are the president said very clearly some time ago. we are not enabling ukraine to strike behind beyond its borders. we are not encouraging ukraine to strike the on its court is everything we are doing everything. the world is doing to support and crank is in support of the trains independence, sovereignty it territorial integrity. and this is the hypocrisy that russia is talking about time and time again. we've seen that for months, for example, there were keys, ations dot iran, is supply in russia's military withdrawal, something both sides have denied. but if we even take that as an example,
12:11 pm
so in that case, iran, for example, is party to the military operation. it needs to be sanctioned even more. but in this case, what we see involvement involving poland and the was here, it's only in terms of the science, we're only sending, it's ukraine, so can defend itself. we're in a party to the conflict, which is something that russia said that would be crossing a red line for this is exactly that. so why should it be in the wrong case? for example, if that's what they believed, and iran needs to be sanctioned, in this case for what should happen to the us. once again, we're seeing double standards from their own evidence, their own examples. marina, many thanks for coming in with those details. i saw please marina cause we're thinking well, we can now continue the conversation on cross live to independent journalist mike jones. now mike, thanks for joining us on the program. so what's your assessment for these revelations at which ones used by care of the hit targets inside russia are produced in the us and i'll put it in poland. i'm not surprised whatsoever. any one
12:12 pm
who has been following the conflict even only in the west media. we'll see how it's apparent how the west is tripping up over its own lies. i'm not surprised by the allegation of poland assistance. we've had it reported even in western media about a polish mercenaries who are tragically getting caught up in this and having to be buried in large cemeteries in poland when it comes to the united states. it's almost an ongoing farcical pantomime as we hear from john kirby and antony blinking . both i believe on record saying we need to enabled or nor encouraged you trying to strike the on this board is and yeah, i believe as i recall m triple 7. how it says have participate in such tax on one, such as belgrade we have in says on the ground of the white house, claiming that they oversee the targeting targets 1st and they give the green light
12:13 pm
. and yet i've been on the ground in goal of cur theater, where high mars struck and people there could not explain to me how these 2 claimed realities can exist in the same paradigm and same world. her timing wise is, comes also just days after the seo of u. s. defense contractor raytheon admitted to helping the u. s. government call the shots on military targets v crane, but they seems like things are coming into focus. so they, what do you make of the timing? ah, as, as we can draw inference from the numerous aid packages that the white house is approved. we know that a large portion of that stays within the us and goes through the likes of lockheed martin and raytheon, who are some of the primary benefactors of this ongoing effort to prolong this unnecessary of suffering down in that on bus region. as to what extent is the us now i direct party to the military conflicts in your eyes,
12:14 pm
and how do you think russia could oh, should respond to my in my personal opinion. and it is us, is the primary shot color, not just with regards to the, the conflict itself, and the, supplying and arming and overseeing and orchestrating numerous, numerous actions. but also we see in the political and geo political field of bullying, european union members to join such as poland trees, who have no business in this, this conflict at all. and what do you make of washington's continued denial of taking a direct, personal conflict? what's in it for them? i think in many westerns like me, no longer, i no longer believe the word that has been said is, as we kind of highlighted in just the previous conversation there, how they'll disprove themselves on
12:15 pm
a long enough timeline. so i think very little faith is, is given to the truth of the words the spoken and said ok, love is another one who's highlighted the as i've, i've said is, well, the almost farcical point that we've reached when it comes to these politicians and what they say, versus the facts on the ground as we seen. while russia would say the nato countries are only prolonging the conflict in ukraine and the suffering of locals by sending, continuing to send more weapons to k, f. western politicians. however, since the war must be one on the battlefield, what do you make of these conflicting approaches? i do agree with this sentiment of the unnecessary prolongation of this, and i do having seen the situation on the ground, myself, internet's on the front lines. i do agree that the west and particularly the u. s. leaves russia with it, and the people have done boss,
12:16 pm
no other choice. they sabotaged attempts at peace negotiations as we saw in a stand bowl. there really is very little choices left by design. for many reasons and the military industrial complex, i believe being one of the primary drivers may. thanks for speaking to us today. really great to get your thoughts on things begin speaking. so independent journalist and mike james, thank you. russian president vladimir putin, a telephone call with the indian prime minister to discuss the 2 countries by last will relation shedding, including trade and energy cooperation. last days after the russian foreign ministry called reports that moody had refused to meet pearson as simple quote, misunderstanding as his when jan sharma has more listen, thought it is a serious telephone conversation of between the premonition or into more the antecedent blood within our visio for the 1st time they spoke on 24th of february, even the conflict, had begun after that twice in march, off then on 1st of july,
12:17 pm
and then to the 16th of december. but to do this conversation, in fact, as a follow up of their raft in person meeting, which happened on the sidelines with if you will submit in a summer gunther. now, as far as the indian beat out is concerned, are it sees that prime minister, no more debriefed president vladimir putin on india's ongoing presidency of g 20, highlighting the key priorities for india are, but also look to afford towards god visa, a walking to the other during india, zach ship of the if you are also, as far as the 2 leaders are concerned, they reviewed our there'd bilateral relationship on several a spec. some of the p 3 key areas being got of course, are feed energy as well as our defense saw. our but it's interesting because this news, arkansas diaz after rough they were talk so feminist intervene,
12:18 pm
grew more the not traveling to was for the c o for the annual in the are russia from it. and of course, so in that sense, this conversation becomes very important. very critical of the 2 leaders in fact have agreed to remain in regular touch twitter. oh, not a long mask has again sparked outrage by suspended the accounts of roughly half a dozen journalists, including report just from the new york times, washington post and stand at to not suspension of the twitter cans of a number of prominent journalists, including the new york times ryan mac is questionable at unfortunate. neither at times nor ryan had received an explanation about why this occurred. we hope that all of these journalists accounts are reinstated, and the twitter provides a satisfying explanation for this action. last night, car carrying little x in l. a. was followed by a crazy stalker thinking it was me, calais to blocked car from moving and climbs on to hood. any account ducks in real
12:19 pm
time location info of any one will be suspended as it is a physical safety violation. this includes postal links to sites with real time location info. but of course live so on his caleb more pain for the details. now caleb, nice to see you now it almost making headlines again i why have these suspensions caused so much outrage? well, if you look into the details, there is a lot of outrage coming from democrats mostly at this point and they are upset about. 8 back that these accounts have been suspended. these journalists have had their accounts taken down. they say this is simply a case of retaliation. this is at attempt to silence. critics of the laws on mosque, on the other hand, says that a car that his child was in was stalked out. he's concerned about his personal safety and doc sing. what's worth noting is the hypocrisy that we're seeing here, you know, some voices that have been quite in favor of tech censorship before are now
12:20 pm
speaking up in pretty loud term. so take a o. c, for example. you're a public figure, an extremely controversial and powerful one. i get feeling unsafe, but descending into abuse of power plus erratically. banning gen less only increases the intensity around. you take a beat and nail, the protein fascism maybe try pitting down your phone. that's quite heated language . we're hearing from a oh see there approach ho fascism. she's quite fired up. but in the past we've heard a o. c herself calling for more media censorship. and in addition to that, has been sued for blocking her critics and preventing her critics from being able to challenge her on social media. now, it's also worth reviewing the role played by the end. ryan delser. he's been a voice that is very outspoken. now again, still on my,
12:21 pm
here's what he said. who knows? i think that's a, that's a, that's an example of a broader question for twitter, which is if you, if you get invited to something where there are no rules where there is total freedom forever, everybody. do you actually want to go to that party or, or you decide to stay home. so that was brian del dirty about his concern that alon law would not engage in enough censorship. there wouldn't be enough shutting down a certain view. but now that certain views have been shut down, and these journalists have been suspended. he's speaking up and referring to alon moscow, the tyrant, and that seems to be the way these voices are framing that they're seeing alon moscow's tyrant. he's that tyrannical ceo using his power to shut down, critic, but they didn't speak the same way about jack dorothy. and jack dorothy was running twitter and silencing many conservatives and other critics of the status quo. they
12:22 pm
defended. they didn't speak of him in the same language in term. so let's review how they spoke and react. dorothy, compared to how they now seem to belong mot actually. and so i think that it's relevant. there are a private company and can make the own independent decisions in line with that publish terms of service. i don't know what happened here, but if eli musk doesn't fix this within the hour of an explanation by morning i'll be on capitol hill tomorrow, demanding that he behold in front of congress. now let's recall when donald trump was still the president of the united states, after the january 6 events was banned from social media. there didn't seem to be a huge flurry of outrage about that. the fact that a sitting president was being silenced by a major social media app. however, this recent round of the den who got the european union weighing in and giving its opinions. here's what we heard from the european union. news
12:23 pm
about arbitrary suspension of journalists and twitter is worrying. ease, digital services act requires respective media freedom add fringe. a mental rights . this is reinforced under are media freedom act. elan mosque should be aware of that. the red lines and sanction soon the media of freedom act, talk about freedom of speech and suppression of freedom of the press. what about the fact? european union has blocked and shut down russia media outlets r. t has been silent by the european union for quite a few months. we've seen suppression of rush and media outlets across the country and by the you itself. so the hypocrisy of all of this is just very, very easy to detect. we here are very selected outrage. these folks were calling for all kinds of tech censorship, but now that alon must someone who doesn't seem to be in their camp,
12:24 pm
is the one making the rules. they're crying foul and screaming about tyranny and suppression. it's worth noting how these things are playing out. tell me things happening is up to speed on the story that fantasies hello more. jane has an hour watching as keith washington of engaging and economic coercion and bullying. as of the white house blacklist is more than 20 chinese semiconductor industry companies . the embargo built on sweeping export controls impose in october, including measures to come back, says to us industrial production tools. and to cut china off from microchips make globally with american equipment. this comes as congress passed and finalized legislation barring the u. s. government from buying products that contain semiconductors, made by chinese manufacturers. washington claims to have implemented the restriction is due to national security concerns. but they didn't have accused us
12:25 pm
of trying to limit china's technological development. attentions come days off the china food to the us at the world trade organization over microchip export controls, political lecturer, pack number one says china has exposed washington's agenda against the country. i think it is becoming clearer and clearer to the international community that the national security concern that the biden is thinking about a is a kind of risk, which is we call it just in case we've which has not been happening. and there's no evidence. but because of just in case, so they decided to implement all these kind of defensive measures, including a spot control center shows the best one was picked up and, and so as a whole, and also law enforcement against expo nash activities. and this will pretend to us on the defensive side so far. china, by so we washington,
12:26 pm
the fee to the rotary organization is to international allies. this dispute with the united states, an attempt to expose the union lateral and the rule is the intention of the universe days in which to us actually now is very clearly that they want to economically contain china. you have adopted this 9th round of sanctions against russia targeting the countries financial and energy sectors. export rates, and media outlets. the restrictions of being opposed shipments of deal use. goodson technology and export ban on all products relevant to the nation. and space industry has also been introduced on the new restrictions include the suspension of ear, broadcasting, licenses of for russian media outlets. poland, prime minister isn't quite happy with the sanctions though, as he's been pushing for them to be much harder on las go. the politician as even
12:27 pm
claims the brussels is full of russian agents who were lobbying the criminal interests. this come from it. revelations, some european countries are apparently bypassing the own sanctions on russian fuel imports. as some 50 percent of gas delivered to austria through turkey or india. is said to have come from russia, dutch economist on publishing. i go home, i say the new sanctions will only spark more backlash against europeans themselves . what i make a new package. so sanctions is pretty much in the lines with all the other ones that come with politics against the european people. and i'm always questioning why all the european paragraph doing this because otherwise you would think about the spare across our committing high korean again european people. and there are very few arguments in my point of view, not to believe in this because all the sanctions are not hitting russia. that's
12:28 pm
hard, especially hitting germany and up here be part center of industrial. and so the european commission, even though it is hostile against russia, but everything is in the line. and in the benefit of the way, what the sanctions will do is they will from a crush the german. and that's the european economy, especially the industry and where they will and the european product, because there's nothing else about the clustering union against germany. and it says nothing to planner anymore. it's done. hey, thanks for joining us. i are naughty, international web back in 30 minutes. mm. ah. fresh in the west. revive the cold war because both recognize and practice, the concept of indivisibility of security. one country should not attempt to attain
12:29 pm
12:30 pm
this also. so was it wasn't a good so now with i feel awful. i was good. i me after willi become wise man, very wise mom and he find the piece with that i feel happy for him. i'm not too worried about it. when i feel like grammy is good with really so i will be appreciated for really thankful for reading. i a i.
