4:11 pm
officials from south became possible applied to e. u. membership belgrade condemned the move and brussels to block it. the russian basset to serbia a co suppose e u membership bid with apparently sanctioned by brussels in advance. you machines not all members of the european union recognized kosovo as an independent state. that means the e. u does not have a unified position and cannot achieve overall consensus when it comes to this issue . however, if we take any country in the balkans as an example, even the process of submitting the application for you membership and a public declaration of such intentions is always agreed at the very political top of the you in brussels. this is not something that is done by the balkan states themselves, like other candidates for your membership. in this case, the european union does not allow any kind of independence. that is why we should not exclude the possibility, but rather we should actually assume that some kind of agreement was already in place beforehand. brussels has not objected to this and pristine air received
4:12 pm
permission to publicly formulate such a request today. ah, in paris, protest to stick to this race, demanding changes in france, his energy policy according to revise the country's relationship with russia. oh, do you feel bad? people march through the sensitive powers holding signs spotlighting their discontent with the you leaders. i'm pulling for piece and levity my rocketing energy prices are one cause of the public outrage and of lead to the protest is demands that current french president emanuel mcclung be impeached. a president of the patriots party depicted the situation in the country as a literal carnage. the depression hitting small businesses on the government, ignoring people's knees. no official comments have come from the french government while the patriots leader gave us his comment from the current situation. trucks is also a good fit. there are still many battles to be fought. there are countries in the
4:13 pm
situation of economic collapse in our demands are very simple to withdraw from the single european electricity market in order to lower energy crisis. to save our bakeries, to save our artisans, to save our factories, and to end the anti russian sanctions. but do not serve to establish peace there, but bring misfortune here and also to invite the parliamentary opposition to shake things up a little. because today they have problems with us. washington has expressed increasing worries about the developing partnership between russia and iran. the cia chief stays, he's wary of moscow on to ron, extending their reach across the middle east. historically, there's a lot of mistrust between russians and iranians, but they need each other right now. currently, the united states is witnessing the emergence of the 1st stage of co operation between the 2 countries. they are already influencing the course of events in ukraine, and if they strengthen such relations can dangerously affect the situation in the
4:14 pm
middle east. and while the u. s. is against letting other countries influence the middle east. washington itself has a long history of meddling in the region. the invasion of iraq, the u. s. fact toppling of libya's government and the american support levels in syria. just a few recent examples. as not discuss this with the university of toronto, profess a science mohammed, ramsey many thanks for joining us on the program. i'd like to know your take on the statement from the cia chief and what do you make of the timing? it just shows that the united states and nato are on the losing end of this global struggle. i see ukraine as a part of a much larger conflict between the west and the non western world. the global south was a multi or, or, or they no longer will holler 8 the world being under the control of western
4:15 pm
regime for hundreds of years. these regimes have suppressed the rest of the world, the colonized the rest of the world. and that must come to an end. and the fact that the iranians and the russians are cooperating together, pushes this struggle, ford. and i think that that is just simply making in the american more angry. but their anger should really be directed towards themselves because they're the ones who, through multiple wars to conflict. conflict multiple, it's across the globe. and through economic mismanagement and liberalism, they're the ones who destroyed their empire, your claim, they want to uphold international law and maintain a level playing field in politics. so why would washington be so scared of having to deal with russia and to ron, influencing the middle east? the united states wants to keep the current world order intact. and that's what
4:16 pm
they mean by international law. they mean a world order where they dominate, where they control, and where their european vassals and their proxies across the globe and their client regime, they control this empire. but the fact is that this empire is crumbling. the united states has basically brought this misery upon itself. and more importantly, in the war in ukraine they've, they're destroyed europe and the europeans know it. european leads, know it. so again, they have no place to go. they cannot blame russia or he, ron, or anyone else for this state of affairs is only natural that iran is going to tilt towards russia than towards europe after all, the historical injustices towards iran towards afghanistan, syria, venezuela, cuba, nicaragua, yemen, libya and the list goes on and then, of course,
4:17 pm
nato provocations their advancement eastwards in europe without any real need to do so and to lying, to the russians after they promised them not to dance each horse than the crew and ukraine in supporting new nazis in ukraine to suppress the russian speaking population, they have no legitimate ground to stand on and to complain to you run about it's close relationship with russia at any level at the thing. i think there's some, and some of these people in these middle eastern countries would prefer to keep the known that is continue dealing with the usaa or something that russia and to run could offer them. instead. my understanding is that a cost, the global south, people are tired of western imperialism, western neo colonialism and western domination. and that includes
4:18 pm
a west asia and north africa. now, there are those dest spots and dictatorships that are close to the united states, and linked to the united states and the europeans. but the populations across the region and beyond are sick and tired of what we've had to go to. the people have seen what the americans and europeans have done, whether it's true dirty wars, whether it's true sanctions directed ordinary people, and whether it is true military cause itself these, these countries are people across the world in the, in the global south. they, they want this empire to decline. so while you may see formal support for the wes in some order, but even in those governments behind the scenes, they would like to see the united states. one of these,
4:19 pm
many of them would like to see the united states and nato get a bloody nose. and while the u. s. and his allies, i accuse a ron as applying joins to russia. these native countries themselves are already pumped ukraine, full of happy weapons and including driving. so how does that western criticism look, considering their own track record? i don't think that the europeans and americans have anything to complain about. i survive to chemical attacks during the iran, iraq war, many iranians and iranian, and iraqis did it. those chemical weapons were supplied to saddam hussein by nato countries, by germany, by other european countries and the united states, the weapons, the military intelligence to use them, the political got cover to get away with it. and that's just one case. that's just one instance of what the united states has done to iranians. they imposed maximum pressure of sanctions against ordinary rights and make people suffer and die so
4:20 pm
that they can get their way to run. then they violated the same deal that was supposed to end those sanctions and then they for, for up the deal. so, i personally believe that the iranians have every right to, to take the position that they take. i have no idea i'm not privy to the relationship between iran and russia to the extent of the relationship. but the ron and russia have similar interest. their military cooperation goes back 30 years since the collapse of the soviet union. the military operation began. and this is nothing new, and if the west, once, once russia and iran to, to behave differently than they should 1st behave. and it's completely different manner towards russia and iran. university off to run professor science mohammed mirandi many thanks for your time. appreciate it. the russian foreign ministry has
4:21 pm
called them all day, the government's decision to ban 6. the russian language tv channels are cracked down on free speech. we can see that this been an unprecedented actress, political censorship, an outrage against the principle of media pluralism. and the gross violation of the right to freedom and access to information to which the political leadership of the republic regularly declares its commitment. in light of the unprecedented consequences of its implementation for the russian speaking part of the country's population will also qualify it as a cynical infringement of the rights of nation. in minorities would demand international gonzales to give an adequate assessment of what happens and take all appropriate measures to correct decent acceptable situation. officials claim the media outlets ought to be shut down due to what they call the threat of pro russian views being broadcast across moldova. the officials of the channels coverage of the ukraine conflict is inappropriate. one local journalist was even blocked on facebook. off describing her frustration of the decision in
4:22 pm
a post. here's how she responded to the media about camecia, but she was return. they said, do i see the emergency situations commission has been the broadcasting of 6 channels in the republic of moldova. i consider this to be a lawlessness. it's pure dictatorship and our country, lin. yeah, unfortunately, this is happening to day when the republic is fighting for development and democracy. this has all been trampled by our government, the footboard, the floor. whatever's parliament is also mulling over a bill and a scaling back the countries of soviet era, legacy as lawmakers and now seeking to rename the nation's official language from moldova to romanian when he pro western politicians there have been pushing for the move ever since moldova declared independence from the u. s. s. r. in 1991. it comes amid ongoing protests against president maya san do and her government's handling of the country's economy. marches have been organized by main opposition. figures on the owners of the bands channels demonstrate to say they want their country to thought to stop backing west in sanctions against moscow,
4:23 pm
which have already led to spiraling inflation and an energy crisis. another journalist whose shallow faces the bank says the government is crossing red line. yes, i got it. boston lawana in simple words. what happened is what we're feared the most and helped until the last that it would not happen because there are certain red lies that no one has ever crossed, no matter what regime is in power. in moldova, it seems to me that whether a tv channel works well or not, should always be decided by the audience. the fact that these channels had not covered the agenda the way the regime would like to be heard. sorry, by what about freedom of speech? what about european democratic norms? what about the very pluralism of opinions that they talked about during the election campaign? that we all remember how the current leaders recently spoke in russian and your, and their election campaigns. and the fact that they are now in power suggested the russian speaking population of moldova believed them. washington has wrapped up his
4:24 pm
1st summit with african leaders in 8 years. and despite the event officially being focused on addressing issues affecting africa, washington insisted on bringing russia into the equation. it's very powerful because you hear countries that are, we're here in washington this week. gonna kenya. so many others that had been the victims of imperialism in the past. and who see that now happening to ukraine by russia. during the 3 day thumb at the u. s. declared the importance of africa in solving global problems. and it bit to compete with africa is, are the partners china and russia, washington is already signed. there were $15000000000.00 and voice support for the african unions bid for g 20 membership. the u. s. secretary of defense also tried to accuse russia and china destabilizing activities in africa. mating responded by urging washington to stop using africa as an arena for power games. however,

4:26 pm
the u. s. is targeting europe in place in africa, and don't carry out who host of ortiz, the whistleblowers safety. us had another reason for not inviting both countries to the summit, even when the new governments of these countries have pledged a return to democracy. and 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, china is very popular in africa. and the western countries are not there, not because they ignored the needs of the change of the african people and the 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
