a don't know who steve, you're i know for the dublin or is that a good story to use for us to play in finances come on both with so is a our, the part of a scandal known as kate cuts our gate shifted. suppose to morocco. i see now my bills are because of taking bride linked to the north african country league document playing with native could recently have triggered a world war. it says the blood supply in tell the grain when i'm fact russian, it pulls it could have instigated nuclear response. there definitely are people involved in the goings who are hoping that something will happen

to trigger an escalation. where were russia, who would make some sort of a rash, move demonstrators, empirical for international support to prevent further police violence while the country is newly installed. intelligence chief says, the protest alterra we are coming out a human right, a warning that i've been given, whatever you are the world, welcome to r t international is just gone. and i'm a, i'm here in the russian capital and it's great to have you with us. i'm up my mom, you know, take a look at today's top stories. these scandal known as cutout gates has shifted its focus to morocco, as the suspended vice president of the european parliament and senior it's harry in

lawmaker, are accused of taking bribes linked to the north african country, also in controversial morrison as more it's really not the best look for the european union when the same officials who are so keen to lecture every one else about democracy and transparency. now find themselves with the big mass right under their own roof at the european parliament. when the scandal broke earlier this month and belgian authorities rolled up suitcases full of cash at homes and hotels associated with european officials. all eyes were focused on covers, alleged involvement in the shady lobbying practices associated with the scandal. particularly since the football world cup was on and cutter was the host country, and it already faced controversy over how it may have been awarded those games. but now morocco has been dragged into this fiasco as well. thanks in part to an alleged

confession by former european parliament vice president, eva kylie whom b e u parliament, recently stripped of her role in title, internal investigation. documents obtained by the press suggest that kylie had dealings with former italian, your deputy pier antonio upon siri, whom investigators alleged to have received cash from both cover and morocco and who just happens to be the founder and president of a think tank called fight. impunity. she had prior knowledge of her husband's dealings with mister pans airy and that suitcases full of cash had been moved through her apartment. when it comes to transparency of its dealings with foreign countries, the european parliament apparently draws the line at morocco and voted against, including it with cutter in a resolution demanding more transparency and accountability. here's the amendment to the resolution that euro deputies ultimately rejected. expresses deep concern about the allegations that morocco has also attempted to influence members,

former members and staff of the european parliament through acts of corruption calls for the application of measures in line with those applied to the representatives of katara interests while investigations are ongoing. so i didn't parliamentarian shy away from having a good look at exactly how they've been dealing with morocco. perhaps they're worried about what anyone poking in to that particular dark corner might find maybe a lot of cockroaches or rats scurrying around. particularly of questions star guinea asked about various parliamentary friendship groups or the role of antonio's like pans. aries in, acting as intermediaries or middle men of sorts under the guise of intellectual and academic respectability. it is long been an open secret that think tanks in the western world routinely served to launder foreign lobbying interests in the us. they've even gone so far as to bundle and donate foreign cash to candidates to

public office, former e u foreign policy. chief federico maurine sat on the honorary board of pen series, fight impunity. angio. right up until the scandal broke hears maurine telling you crane how to fight corruption way back in 2015. we have primarily focused on the need for conduct of the anti corruption reform, which is the key factor to allow the international partners to trust in ukraine and as if that wasn't enough. here maurine is again, 2 years later, underscoring the importance of solid, ethical, gar, rails, for ukraine. the anti corruption institutions, as we discussed and as we agreed, must be allowed to do their work independently, with enough powers and resources to investigate, prosecute, and eventually ensure the conviction of those responsible for corruption. while it looks like ukraine is well taken care of, and they think they might be up to that sh city. so how many more members like maurine of think tanks like pans?

aries, fight impunity in the east. you have bothered to take a look under the hood of those and yours and insist on the same kind of accountability, transparency, and good practices that the e u demands of other countries. apparently that doesn't even exist at the european parliament, yet as the scandal is proving european commission, president ursula vander line just recently announced after this whole scandal broke, that she'll get right on that now though, economy probably right after lecturing the rest of the world, few more times on the greatness of european values. we heard from a spanish law professor who says no secret that mark her has been loving, you know, my going to get fishing rights for us and sahara. the patient, western sahara has not only course a task of political jabari decal,

meaning, but it has also one economy, meaning the worst sense to her now is the soles over huge benefits for the kingdom of moral? no. how's be no, no, no my mental organization called western sahara research watch the task calculated the amount of the money dut morocco receives exporting the phosphates from western sahara and old. so we know the money the european union gives to morocco to get a loud fishing in the occupied waters. western sahara morocco export mainly to the european union not only but mainly to union. this is just a one issue where we know exactly that, that is corrupt corruption,

a european union level. and actually, as i said concerning the members of the european parliament, this is not the secret that and morocco has been lobbying them. oh, well laser, the hills of says they don't want to direct conflict with russia recently. document claims that the blog has been providing key intelligence to increase forces for thanks on russian military facilities. those who will reportedly obtain by a hacker and published on social media. it contains detailed information about russian military hardware. and notations, for example, is as to russian strategic bombers were based in the angles airfield in western russia. ukraine is believed to have used that information in recent weeks to conduct andrew attack on that location. now,

there are also claims that you claim sought to destroy russian strategic bombers in the regions of riah and a set of those joins were, of course, shot down. nevertheless, 3 russian soldiers were reported killed another for wounded, while 2 aircraft were damaged. the drugs are suspects it has been made by an american company. now, such attacks could have been grounds for a nuclear response. russian protocol allows these of atomic weapons in retaliation for a type of disrupt strategic wifi capabilities. the allies ukrainian drones strike on the russian nuclear cable bombers could have treated such a response. now, the legal document revolted, the power locations of hundreds of russian emergency vehicles. these include planes, defense systems, tanks and rocket launches in the conflict zone and well within russia,

as well as warships in the black sea. we heard from a full us republican state who says that name has become increasingly aggressive. i think that there definitely are people involved in these things who are hoping that something will happen to trigger an escalation where we're russia would make some sort of a rash move. and fortunately, so far as president posen has been a very cool come hand, who has, you know, he's been been very rational and delivered in his, in his actions. which is a very good thing because, you know, we're, we're so much closer to world war 3 than europe was in 1940 with the 1st world war. i was a part of nato, back in the eighty's when we, it was nato versus the soviet union. nato was

a defensive alliance at that time. but when the, when the, the wall fell, when, when the soviet union dissolved, the nato did not dissolves the worse, all packed dissolved. but nato remained is very real post force. and it became a force of aggression. instead of being a defensive alliance, suddenly started to move steadily eastward and, and it could only do this by creating an illusion that the russian federation was sort of identical to the old soviet union. but in many ways it's, it's exactly opposite to what the soviet union was so so nature has become a very dangerous organization. there are people who are trying to trigger some sort

of response from russia that would begin to escalate and involve all of nato in combat. the dom us as fears bottles have been raging along the front lines, rushes involved in a group or major fighting falls in the region has been facing off against ships for control of the tv. the important city of our team of government says presidents, unless he recently visited the bible city to meet with men, officials and handout a was on the other side of the front line. the head of the, i'm going to propose a meeting with the client in leader. i was sitting in the headquarters and they told me that lensky had just arrived. our guys are going to fire gunshots and morse code. if he pays attention, we could meet any time. what's the model is we just shot in morse code to say,

gears lensky. we're nearby and we're ready to discuss the issues. because it has been in times fighting for sit for the city in recent months. the authorities say that russian control of the area would facilitate for the offensive for northern parts of the region. russian officials say the crane troops in the city have been using scorched tactics, deliberately destroying buildings and roads, and using the local civilian population as human shields. they say that the mercenaries, i refused to be deployed to the city because you create a full who's having suffering heavy losses. i stake you now to south america, that new head of peruse, national intelligence agency, reportedly as links to a previous c authoritarian regime in the south american country, including

a convicted death squad organizer. now he says that mass protests that have grips of the nation are essentially a terrorist insurrection. if you want to address the events that we are seen as a social conflict, we are in total error here. there are no social conflicts in each place where the police and the armed forces are attacked. there is a political objective, and that is called a terrorist insurgence. more than 20 p all over imported killed of the mass them as facia hampton violent amid crashes with police protesters of in calling for the newly installed present to resign of the previous one was taken into custody. following his attempt to dissolve parliament, and especially lead by decree for his government has made some concessions. the protesters particularly saying that they would be fresh elections ahead of schedule, a local act. the said as this abhor from the streets of the national capital. right

now i don't facing a very of emergency. we have military cb government right now by the number you updated that in alliance with armed forces. a bed of protesters and demonstrators across the country where we are now in human rights, a very violent detention in lima. but mostly in the provinces of ours on right now, there's a calling for a national, right? we are for national solidarity. we are very afraid there's going to be more dead lives. i've been more like violations. i owe you people across the country

where you can enjoy the state of emergency a young people even deal with. so please leave them all over the world from your home. i'm not in america, north america. we are coming out a way we do not want any more. people feel that we're having us human rights. a well i saw such as now to west africa was 6 of the news on the east to soldiers have been reported. killed in a series of attacks indicate faster because he has so little to maintain security in recent years of fighting the seeing natural forces. i'm in so as cause of death of

thousands of people and driven an estimated to 1000000 from their homes. the males, he says they deny insurgents links suit. international task groups have been killed in operations this month alone. all te spoke with an interim prime minister. he says a security remains a top priority and the country welcomes a partnership with russia. and what are your priorities now? is it perhaps insecure to sector? we sound good. yes, definitely. currently security is a priority and burkina faso and we talked about it. but in addition to the security sphere, we discussed other areas as well because the problem of security is complex with many parts. we hope that starting from now we will begin to resolve it apart from that, it's necessary that our relations develop because we're all interested in winning. it's closer to think russia could become an ally for broken up us out in the fight against to help us. we for swims with yes and we would like it. we would like russia become our ally here,

as well as all our partners. and we know that russia is a great power and a frushell wants to can help us in this area. the u. s. says china as career wise death toll is a global concern. that is the internal impact on egos ability. washington has expressed hopes that try american get its covey situation under control. this might, it's earlier criticism of beings look down policies. the toll of the virus is of concern to the well given the size of china's to be given the size of china's economy. it's not only good for china to be in a stronger position because it, but it's good for the rest of the worlds as well. we, the united states continues to be a leading force for countries around the world and the provision of vaccines and helping countries overcome the phase of the virus. we certainly hope that will

be the case before long in the see as well. ned price the spokesperson for the us state department. and he was criticizing shina and talking about how at this point they hope china gets their numbers in order because the impact that coven rising in china could have on the global economy. and people are noting the irony of what's been set as his boss, the head of the us state department, us secretary of state anthony blank and was just recently calling for 0 coded policies in china to be listed and calling for the release of protest. or let's review what's been said by us officials. china has to figure out a way forward on dealing with what's covered away for that answers the, the health needs, but also ashes the needs of people. i think we're seeing the chinese people speak up for more freedom against the co locked down policies. i support that the

lockdown is not a policy that we're going to support here. so when china had stringent anti coven policies that was declared to be repression. we have the u. s. government speaking out, a guest is describing china as the repair. and now that those restrictions have been lifted and cold in cases in china are rising. we have china once again being can down. now, the claims and the condemnations china from us officials are laced in hypocrisy. one will know that the united states leads the world in terms of coven related deaths. whereas china, despite having the world largest population, is 98 in the world in terms of cobra. dest, nowhere near the united states, in the number of koby related gas. so it's quite, quite hypocritical, for us officials to be criticized in china, recovered related gas, and talking about it. but this all fits a pattern with how the united states covers china, no matter what china does. china is condemned when kobe 0 coded policies were put

in the fact they were described as brutally authoritarian. and then when those coded policies were lifted, we heard that this was a sign that president, she's in pain was weak. and that this was, that was a sign. and he was giving in and didn't have authority and power that no matter what the u. s. media and the u. s. politicians look for any excuse to condemn china and condemn its policies and portrayed in a negative light. and this latest statement, this latest flip the script, if you want to call it, that is just a really blatant example of how hypocritical and nonsensical us narratives are the usa does not like a particular government, no matter what they do. they find a way to spin it in a negative way and saying the reason is the us ambassador nathan has an assist that russia and china are the maintenance they still are increasingly sharing a toolkit that should concern the nato alliance. there's just no question that

china and russia both working to divide the transatlantic partners, the usaa away the size that efforts would be made to address threats from russia and china. the block has been seeking to expand in the northern said county, russia and the u. s. has been strengthening its ties with australia report the providing nuclear cable bombers in the face of china. while the u. s. maintains the largest number of military bases around the world. it serves the blame on rival powers for increase tensions. we heard from a senior lecture after the british universal boss, he says that increased juvenile confrontations are responsible for the escalate intentions of in eastern and western powers. it is that you put its cold tussle between the us and china and between the us and russia. this is leading to kind of escalation a because all the restriction export restriction of semiconductors and we did the

technologies from the u. s. imposed on her allies in europe. give them a lot of difficulties now, because whenever they want to collaborate with china in terms of industry and tray, they have to seek emissions and license from the u. s. department of commerce. this is making things very, very difficult for them not as a result. the u. s. has to drum up these china threat in the mind of the nato, trying to justify why all these measures are necessary and to, to make, and at the same time trying to undermine the relationship between europe and china . so the u. s. a. u even giving more pressures to the european allies by dropping up all these kind of russia, china threats and through natal the u. s. has admitted to committing cyber attacks on foreign powers in the mid 7 actions is justified the move and by

saying this is kind of in to fit in the vote. unless the us had stepped in we did conduct operations persistently to make sure that our foreign adversaries couldn't utilize infrastructure to impact us. we understood how foreign adversaries utilize infrastructure throughout the world. we had that mapped pretty well, and we wanted to make sure that we took it down at key times. this is the idea of understanding your foreign adversaries and operating outside the united states. washington a has been a, he is in raw sand, iran for meddling, and is alexis the many is well for the recent events of the cus, security official said there was surprisingly a lack of foreign interference. he said that russia army wrong was supposedly known, focused on the us. that would suit preoccupied. whether you could, incom flew and a wave of protests and the islamic republic form a c. i a amazon jealous john carrack, who said, washington uses claims of forum meddling to brush off mold pressing unless it

concerns. there's literally no evidence that any one has found of russian or any other foreign interference in american elections. the mother investigation outlined in the muller report found, for example, that there was no foreign interference specifically no russian interference in the 2016 election. there wasn't even an accusation of foreign election interference in 2020. and then we geared up for some sort of interference in the mid term elections this year. in 2022, the cia named jeffrey wickman as the intelligence community's director of this effort to rude out foreign interference. and there was none. this is, this is like the dirty little secret now, of american politics is that we blame all of our problems electrically on foreign

powers, specifically on russia. and there's nothing to back it up. well, that's all from me to day class. so is up next in unit o'neill will be in the studio, the i'm on my mommy. she will a wondrous one. ah, ah. by the middle of the 19th century, practically the whole of india had been under the rule of the british empire. the colonial authorities had imposed that heavy death bringing the people into poverty and were exporting natural resources. and moreover,

these authorities absolutely had no consideration for the traditions of the local population, treating them like 2nd class citizens. the british were showing signs of disrespect even to those who cooperated with them. the fact of ignoring the religious beliefs of the hindus led to the mutiny embassy boys, mercenary soldiers serving under the british crown. rebellion began on the 10th of may 1857 in the garrison town of may river, north of india. in the form of a mutiny. the rebels quickly took over daily. the heroic resistance of the indian people lasted for one and a half years. however, the forces were not equal. the colonial authorities dealt with the rebels cruelly, the slaves, the boys were tied to the mouth of the cannon and were shot right through their bodies for the amusement of the public. this type of execution was called the devils when the obliteration of the mutiny resulted in the death of 800000

inhabitants of india. however, the british empire never broke the free spirit of the and there will a jagger's archipelago roma that she goes to san diego. garcia, the largest island in the archipelago, is now the location of a very large u. s. military base. you get given med, div i to the u. s. government to make the military base and just deported all of douglas and people from their country. so they can return back on the island . no, but we are fighting. that's what we'll start seeing for the right. so i, we do not consider the right to self determination actually applies to the trickle . since i don't the question, those self determination, the legal advice we've received is actually the trickle. since we're not and all

not a people for me, it's time to move on and see what we can do. a full the child said community to return back home, knowledge support from the united nation i for mission african united nish. i don't care about douglas said people ah ah hello and welcome to cross thought were all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle piece in ukraine. seems essentially impossible, and there is a reason for this. nato wants russia to be completely defeated. russia and turned demands new pan, european security structures, protecting it's interest. as long as nato exist, there'll be no peace or security for anyone. i

cross sucking ukraine. i'm joined by my guess fed escobar in paris. he is an independent geopolitical analyst and author specializing in eurasia and brussels. we have look rebate. he is an independent journalist and in kingston we cross who general 70. he is founder and director of trends research institute and publisher of the weekly trends journal magazine or a gentleman cross hoc rolls. in fact, that means you can jump in any time you want. and i always appreciate pepe. let me go to you 1st here. there's a huge ace america asymmetrical process and play here. the europeans, the west collective. once it's a c or a russia completely defeated, russia wants security guarantees, and i have a solution to it. and it's a simple one. why don't work towards peace, and that's something that the west will never do. pepe, of course not, and they keep saying that every day, like still defining stoled hamburg my american generals.
