11:06 am
a lot of serious topics on the agenda today. what, what can you tell us about yes. hi rory, indeed, although russia and bella rose, have historically had incredibly close ties always. but especially since the beginning of moscow's special military operation, any ukraine that borders belarus as well. this is library, put his 1st visit to the capital min since 2019 before the pandemic. but fall from a rare meeting with his bella russian counterpart. we meet with fulton very often look a shanker said, when the talks between the 2 countries delegation started here at the independence palace and that worries some western countries a lot. he stressed. let's take a lesson she looks the is due to the circumstances you haven't had a chance to visit with us for a long time in a format like this. but generally our ministers often meet. you are always welcome guests of ours. the pause and visits to minsk has not prevented us from being in
11:07 am
constant contact with each other. even our so called western partners are very worried that we sometimes meet often. we have met regularly, both in the russian federation and that international venues report and emphasized that beller was not only russia's good neighbor, but had the country's closed ally and the economy to keep. mueller and moscow means relations. the trade toner work between the 2 countries has already heed all the records and is expected to reach 40000000000 dollars this year of live mo, putting sad before his visit to main school. we heard a lot from here about possible aims of monday talks among them moscow's apparent attempt to convince lucas shanika to join moscow special mil to reparation of ukraine and even to launch a joint ground offensive against ukraine. from the tertiary of belarus, to the russian president spokesperson, dmitri pissed coff has already called it s t u, p to t,
11:08 am
and absolutely groundless statements. so at this very moment, the talks between the negations of the 2 countries, including forward and defense minister, is, are going on here at the independence palace. ben hootin at lucas shanker, i expected to seat tat i tear 10. after that, we expect them to come out to media and brief journalists on their resolve self. today's talks will keep you updated. of course. yeah, master will be following those. i talked with a press as well, and almost certainly speaking to you again. very soon, masha for nation, i thank you. ah, the, or south african president, gerald, i'm a foe. so has been reelected as leader of the ruling african national congress for a 2nd 5 year term and a party leadership conked us. artie africa correspondent, catabolic cutler has details. now as we stand here, so i'm of hasa stands as a re elected president of the african national congress. and this time, not by the gossamer fin, margin of 171 bows that he had in 2017,
11:09 am
but over 670. this has been an overwhelming victory for a man who was seen as and our pressure to come up with a response to the charges that that the independent panel report wanted to level or at least investigate with regards to his carla pile of farm robbery that happened some 2 years ago, now se still has a lot of issues to deal with. among them, they have to address the pressing matters, such as corruption. i choose members of the party and how to seem like they're universally treating all members the thing. another thing that they have to grapple with is the issue of south africa's porous borders. this has seen opposition. parties really take votes from the african national congress as they have law and about a nationalist view that has been gaining some traction here. and the african national
11:10 am
congress is trying very hard to, to look like the odd res, wanting to the issues that south africans on the ground have been complaining about . but he has a view from some of the people that were here to support their branches. their delegates and in the overall sense, i guess the men who want set out, i'm a post. so i believe that this new leadership will be able to concentrate all the forces and put in one direction just working because the, all the provinces decided and pretty broad baker. i'm of course, as the president and bas late, which was agreed upon by all way accord, notice of all provinces. so i think that i'm a post side nutrition which is coming, you know, is gonna be changing the african national congress. we're gonna be united asthma as mod done ever before, that he had been excited. i will go to that, my post. i will go and the lady did county and i am 5 foot caught
11:11 am
up in cobb county the lit up. now in the end, if not today about people thought we was about to care about that happening can believe this time around the, the president is more emboldened by the leadership collective. just come out from this conference. so with this leadership that the delegates of the agency i've given him to work with, you will have more coverage to take decisions. settled on was that 1st by give the president when rocky testy and at times looked like it had pinned him against the robe. now, with an emboldened mandate, one only wait to see just how quickly that all was. well, an egg, some of the agreed upon policies. yes. and the reforms that he has promised the south african public lodge. will he? when will he got his house? why fi?
11:12 am
and south of john is very well, it's good to have your company for this. our program from moscow shifting gears now to peru, but people have just been hitting the streets across the country basically. now though it's more, those 2 were killed in last week's violence classes. that is, numbers we understand 23, locals are portly, died. the rest are rough across several cities, often then president petro castillo, with impeached by parliament. as vice president, deena bull of a inherited the post protest of called it a power grab an illegitimate move. however, she says she's not going to step down as she questions the motives of those calling for her to go. no, i love your lens. yeah. what does my resignation fall holy? does it solve the problem? it doesn't. we will be here firmly until congress decides to bring forward elections. if they say, let dina ball martine resign. why? because i am a woman or because they see me as incapable of good governance. they are wrong when
11:13 am
i despise a deadly violence against the protesters. a several western countries have reiterated full support for the coward in baffled president. spoke with paris, foreign minister, and as cecilia gervase to reiterate our support for the transitional government. if president bull martine canada calls for com peace, and full respect for human rights, they also expressed my condolences to those who have died due to the social unrest . the united states looks forward to working closely with president bull ward tay on shared goals and values related to democracy, human rights security, anti corruption, and economic prosperity. well, a number of western countries have put their support behind her, specifically the united states and canada behind dina. below our taste unelected governments, the same government that actually has come to power by a congress that has between 7 and 11 percent of support from the population,
11:14 am
according to recent polls. and on the other hand, the ousting and and detainment of the former president pedro castillo, has actually angered a lot of latin american leaders. we heard from columbia's president petro gustavo, who basically can't spoke out in support of his peruvian counterpart. we also heard from the former president of bolivia, april morales, he called on the international community to take action to secure the release of castillo, we call the international community, especially the you and agencies and the inter american commission on human rights to put a stop to the deaths and serious human rights violations suffered by the brotherly peruvian people for demanding the constituent assembly and the release of its president. that was 25 people already unfortunately dead from this violence. the situation is also upsetting a lot of officials within the country as well. i mean, boulevard to his ministers of culture and education have both resigned already out of frustration. so it's also not clear if these resignations are going to be the
11:15 am
end of it either. but we, you know, it's, it's, it's wanting to have protests and demonstrations is also, i mean, is, is gossley news to hear about some of these protest tutting deadly donald. but we also have raids going on as well. what, what else can you tell us? well, the on saturday the left wing new peru party said it, it released actually videos of policeman in civilians, clothing rating their offices. the party said that this was a violation of their fundamental rights because lawyers and onlookers were not actually allowed into the building to observe what was going on. so we, after that heard a statement from the general secretary of that party denouncing the raids as well as denouncing similar ones against another left wing opposition group in peru. let's take a listener what he said. take a look at it, although he necessarily did they broke into premises that belong to the no ave oh, pu party on the peasant confederation of peru, acting against comrades from different provinces and regions who were peacefully protesting against what is happening now and prove. we are experiencing
11:16 am
a very critical period, a dictatorial period because this situation cannot be called democracy. how brothers and sisters have been killed and we will not tolerate any more deaths. we can't stand it. the media distilled, everything that happens here in peru, in terms of this raid on the offices of the peasant confederation of peru. a video also did surface on twitter of a man who appeared to be on the scene who was accusing the police actually of planting evidence on them in, in those buildings. so as these deaths from the violence are likely going to continue as long as the these violent protests continue, and we're hearing accusations of government abuse, it's unclear how much longer boulevard his government even might have the choice on whether it's going to resign or not. let's say the story. busy further, now here in ocoee international daniella, tis an activist joining us here on the program to take this story. a few steps for the great to see today. thanks for joining us there on the program. can you just a break it down for us right now? daniella, what is the very latest we know now understand there have been funeral processions
11:17 am
as people have been mourning at at least 20 people tragically killed in these anti government demonstrations. what do you know? yeah, well, what we know is that the totally up to 25 people murder it. all of them have been murderous out of shoots it. those have the information given by the hospitals where the bodies of these people were taking but a political organizations, people that are saying that is more people who are being killed and we are under me and the state of emergency magazine use it to him like justified the silence i know to do the places i live, but it also gives a that it was media called the native opened ation, in which the never lot of the non recognized by most of the but it will be a prison in a gave interviews we've it for be, give me the attendance is that we're obviously organized interviews to her even
11:18 am
which is he didn't even recognize the fact that we're people being killed by the military and the police. when she was asked about the keeling, he had it about us to call the people in that role due to the ability actually one of those cases of what you leave the media saying that a baby die number and going to a hospital. the hospital then explained that it was not true under the baby, didn't die because of the way i do apologize for jumping in. i just want to interrupt you briefly because that's so much information that i know you're trying to get us here. the new president are, she's, she's, she's playing tough. she's refusing to budge, she says, no elections for at least 2 years. she doesn't seem terribly sympathetic towards
11:19 am
the demonstrators, at least as you say, 23 or 25 people. when it's time, perhaps shot dead amid these demonstrations anti government demonstrations. why do you think she's behaving in this way? she, she almost seems to be protected in a sense yet. well, also would be important to mention that yesterday she said that these cases of murders were going to be investigated by the military duty fiction. this having happened a fluke commodity shipping the country of a they do it, but it what it seems without the we have these type of simulations before when maybe you know to power. we had a complicated situation. he made up our laments that he could know, but we have never seen a situation with such a string. and with such presence of the military, it is not even the press conferences with the ministry of interior or the ministry of the pin. he's given the conferences with the media pennies themself,
11:20 am
and she has been reading only 7 days to 3 acts with the military. that's on one hand, that is clear, i see showing up that he has the support of the adobe in the military. and obviously also the police, but also is she has been showing up in the open the relationships on the support with the not only the american embassy, but the american government authority piece is like a lincoln, that tickets idea of what i want to talk to about so i want to, i want to get a clear statement from you on this just so i get the exact news here. you're talking about this, the new president and borrower says she has strong western support in washington as einstein also in canada as well. sorry for interrupting you. tell us how is it, why is it that she has such support? but i guess with some western professional partners. yeah. a, obviously it's really important to understand these in regards to the region we
11:21 am
have and also that, and that the american countries we've left with governments now able to seal is going to start having government from the 1st of january. so it seems that these doesn't only have to do with that conflict between that right when and the model part, the in the context of it all. but also we're taking back territory by the imperialist power on the estate together with a utopian union. already when there were more than 5 people motivated, they do appear and union in countries. i'm the i'm bachelor, came out to be in support to the no one who are the on the other hand, it all in the president of columbia. that of make me call the president of the present to be there we go. 19 of the major president and now be a minister of cough called the ambassadors of columbia,
11:22 am
make people bolivia. i can be enough to a meeting because they were outraged because of their position of not recall. the number of things are done yellow. my last question for you, and i'm going to get about 25 seconds to give me please, what needs to happen next to quell beyond arrest and dissatisfaction among the people? well, as you mention it, there has been being rates to the peace and configuration of the one to the party in lopez or for example. and something that was really important to avoid. that is then taking people wearing goals, a place to the police can be the pain. was that where people in the demonstration against these, i mean seems that this is going to be the path even though we are in the state of emergency, even though they have taken out the military people. now, our industry industries on the process of continuing the are asking the congress, the congress to be out it being paid to be out and also to be processed because
11:23 am
she's politically reformed. one for all of if that has happened in a week for a figure to be relieved, and also to open a new process of elections with tensile rules. but we are also demanding to have i called people in process because we cannot people having the same situation that was on duty for him on the date there shipping a need to say that he's in creating all these type of situation. all right, then yellow ordered pairs and activists joining. i slide from lima where it's just about 1123 a. m, the very latest the on, on what is a really blow the stories blowing up daniella. it's not going away anytime soon. and we certainly feel for all those demonstrators and those people who've been caught up in what's been some really awful violence, daniel or peers and activists joining us live from lima. thank you very much. thank you. thank you. thanks. ok. well f b, i officials repeatedly grilled twitter executives about censorship on the social media platform. that's according to the most recent edition of the twitter files,
11:24 am
which claims that the agency insisted the company provide more information about removing quote, state propaganda from the site. i think we'd better learn more about this right now crossing lives. want these are caleb more find the head caleb? well, it sounds interesting. what can you tell us? so it appears that at a rather politically sensitive time, now we have members of the intelligence agencies in the united states reach out to twitter and asked twitter about the activities of what they called propaganda actors on its platform. and the response from twitter was to basically say, there's not much of it, there doesn't seem to be much activity of that kind on our platform. well, the intelligence agencies would not accept that answer. they provided a bibliography of articles from the wall street journal and, and other media outlets talking about how archie and had been riding on twitter, et cetera. and it appears that yellow colon, ah,
11:25 am
he was quite shocked by the response of the u. s. intelligence community to his reporting on what was actually taking place on the platform. here's what he said. roth, receiving the questions, circulated them with other company executives and complained that he was frankly perplexed by the requests here, which seem more like something we'd get from a congressional committee than the bureau. hi team. the questions we received are attached. i'm frankly perplexed by the request here, which seem more like something we'd get from a congressional committee than the bureau. there's a big discussion to be had about state controlled media, which will be impacted by the label launch later this month. but i'm not particularly comfortable with the bureau, demanding written answers here. what's your perspective on how best to navigate? thanks. so yo ross is the main sensor at twitter. he was responsible for overseeing the taking down of certain accounts and suppressing of certain voices.
11:26 am
but even he was perplexed and shocked by the f b i's response and what they were asking of him. and this points to the fact that there seems to be some interesting gaps in this narrative that would get about twitter being a neutral actor. it seems to feed the idea that the intelligence agencies had a lot of control over it and certainly doesn't dispel the idea that twitter wasn't meddling in american politics. now, you'll recall our atom ship the democrat in the u. s. congress that he came forward and talked about how twitter got a free pass. here's what he said. i think we've got a big problem right now with social media companies and their failure to moderate content and the explosion of hate on twitter. the banning of journalists on twitter . i don't think these companies should enjoy an immunity from liability when they behave this way. you know, we can't tell them what to say. you're not saying, but we, we gave them immunity. we said if you're be responsible,
11:27 am
moderators of content, we will give you immunity. they haven't, it seems this immunity that he was describing as been lifted. it's passed. it's no longer in effect sense ilan. moscow took control of the platform of twitter. milan must someone who urged folks to vote republican and the recent us mid term elections. since then, we have seen a lot masika phase, a federal investigation whose twitter deal. there has been around denunciation of the law mosque as a dangerous man, a tyrant. in addition to that, there's been a threat of sanctions from the european union. so we have a situation that now the twitter seems to be in the hands of forces that are not in line with the democrat party. because of that, we now have twitter and, and social media giants not, you know, being told they have this immunity they want at this point we have republicans making the allegation that big tack is really just a wing of the u. s. intelligence agencies. and they're using it for political
11:28 am
purposes to meddle in the elections, and they're saying they want to do something about this. i believe that in the end we will find that there's no intelligence that supports the f b i doing this, that this is a, a campaign by the f b i that really is outside of the bounds of anything we would expect them to do. and certainly in a very constitutionally trouble, and who's the mastermind? and since this is not based on intelligence, is not formal, i'd actors that the malign actor throughout with the f b i themselves. who is it that is coordinating it? we have an ironic situation here where the f, b, i and their attempts to snuff out what they call for an actors is actually revealing their own mouth. these are revealing their efforts to cover up the contraband laptops, danville and other other efforts that they made to kind of nudged whitter to operate in certain ways. and it certainly, you know, this bits of pattern in the new revelations that are coming along, which seemed to indicate the twitter was certainly not a free and open space. and there certainly was
11:29 am
a partisan agenda being carried out by this very important tech platform. all right, kayla. thanks for that. appreciate it. all right, any stories want to catch up on you know where to go? it's r t dot com the meantime. thanks for your company. we're back soon with. ah, i've actually found safety braces naziism as a job. all of a sudden you're placed in a position where i can defend myself. now i don't have to be afraid anymore. on one hand, i'm terrified that they're going to find a jewish, but on the other, i think it's so far away. i distinctly remember my mom sitting me down one night and cursing john, they're going to hurt. one guy hunch me behind my ear or somebody so now in the rest of the punch is restored to flying and somebody shouted out, died you boy died. and at that point i knew there's
11:30 am
a brad and indian doctor. they came in and looked and said, there is no medical reason wires you should be alive. you to find something to believe. john story is a story of ho story, victory and whatever i can do to help him i with you. oh, is you'll media a reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? high selection community. are you going the right way or are you being led somewhere direct what is true? what is great.
