situation and then i decided to keep up. this was an interesting usaa ministration . ah ah . with serbia builds up that one. serbia builds up artillery and troops on its border with kosovo and put the army on high alert in response to pristine as a legit attack on. ethnically serv. areas with the white house pressure, twitter to suppress accurate information on cobra. 19 that didn't fit with the government guidance, according to the latest lead twitter revelations with

her on a red 7, u. k. you rainy, radian jewel, national, suspected of feeling anti governmental riots. a british empire has called the detention the industrialized taking of state hosted with hello for marketing, international studios in moscow, and welcome to the hours top news stories worldwide. i'm fearless about okay. yeah, it's not coming up. one second, serbia has built built up, it's artillery. and puts its army on its highest level of combat. readiness

dispatching more troops to its border with the breakaway region of kosovo. the president of serbia has commander in chief to nigh to order that the southern armed forces be or the highest level of combat readiness. it raises sauce to the highest level of action carried out by the serbian army, protecting the territorial integrity and solvency of serbia and protect and all citizens of serbia and prevent and terrorism and terror against serbs wherever they leave. the situation on the border is hands with an increasing presence of serbian police and armed forces which are building up artillery units in response to the growing number of close of and soldiers in the area. the former u. s. top envoy to serbia slam pristine as president for violating peace agreements . the latest violence in kosovo is unacceptable. albin, curtsey continues his unilateral actions in the north in violation of international agreements. state secretary blinkin must demand curtis release the serbian

prisoners and refrain from arresting peaceful protesters and stop sending special forces to the north while at the same time demanding the barricades to be removed. the developments come after 5 western countries reportedly threatened belgrade to make local serves remove barricades in the north of kosovo, pristine as special forces allegedly tried to dismantle serbian barricades in the region, but apparently fled following wording shots fired by local serbs coast of immediate claims that serbian locals who began the stand up shooting at troops that had been deployed to the area professor at the institute of european studies in belgrade 7 got each, gave us his take on why the already strained relations between the side are worsening. this is one of the publications, i guess, the don again by the coastal being authorities. so what they are doing is they're

constantly provoking the serbs and for some reason they want to escalate. i don't know why, because this is not in the interest of neither the serv, nor the albanian local population. so there obviously must be an agenda behind this . it all started with serbs withdrawing from the concerns are here in trim institutions which happens for, followed by the albanians. the authorities not fulfilling the brussels agreement for almost 10 years. they have signed it and ratified it twice in their parliament . but they don't want to establish the so called community of serbian municipalities. so the serbs out of protest left institutions. and then the albanian authorities, diffusions, started to arrest the serbian policemen who were in their system because unfortunately what we call an international community, which i think is

a rather racist term. because it always only applies to the political west. so because they treat serbia and serves as enemies and have been treating us like that for the last i say 30 years because in every single conflict on the policy was love space and they were against the serbs. the main, a mistake maybe by the serbian government is to out of goodwill. let's the negotiation process go down from the level of the united nations to level of the european union, which was constantly behaving as a side in the conflict and not as a unbiased. you know, by standard that is trying to mediate between the sides. 3rd, b r has a right according to the un resolution, 1244 to a to bring in some soldiers and policeman. so this is an obligation by nato to provide this for the 1st time in last monday,

3 years that serbia has officially fully off for that. i must say in 2003 prime minister was orange. it was talking about that, but he was murdered. that's another, a very interesting issue. however, this is the 1st time the serbia has officially ostler that and k 4 is thinking about the issue. so they did not give a straight answer about that because they can't reject it. but they don't want the serbian, a forces protecting the local serbs which they have every right to do. but for some reason, i mean quality is escalating. i don't know if he wants to drag serbia into into a conflict because it's a shirley seems like that. and in this international environment, he probably sees the opportunity why? because therapy is the only country in europe. we're one of the few that did not impose any sanctions against russia, where you know, 80 to 90 percent of what relation supports russia for historical reasons for you know, they also identify with the same situation with this realization that is,

that is made by the global western media and so on. so it seems to me that serves are being treated as an enemy constantly, which is why we see these double sanders, which i have, i can't even call them numbers star level centers, because it is a standard that saw that we, that, that we were mistreated in in the international environment, the u. s. government pressured twitter to sensor or label as misleading information about coven 19. that was in fact true, but deemed inconvenient for washington. that's according to the latest batch of leak twitter files revealed by investigative journalists. david's wig in my review of internal files, i found countless instances of tweets labeled as misleading or being taken down entirely, sometimes triggering account suspensions simply because they veered from cdc guidance or different from establishment views. it seems that when the biden

administration took over a, one of their 1st meeting requests with twitter, executives was on the subject of covert and their focus was in particular, anti vaccines. and one man specifically was alex baron sin. he buried the bronze of their, of their anger. i and, oh, what happened there was that present biden in the summer of 2021. when his comments came out, saying that social media companies are killing people for allowing vaccine misinformation a few hours after that all of a sudden this man's, it's what our account was suspended. and he was kicked off the platform the following month. now this man didn't just let it go, he suits witter, they eventually settled. but in that, in that legal process, twitter had to release internal communication of that i, it had where the white house overall pretty good. they had one really tough

question about why annex burns and hasn't been kicked out from the platform. otherwise, a questions were pointed but fair. unmercifully, we had answers sweaters ahead of the us. public policy held several meetings with the white house and she wrote a sort of summary of those meetings in december 2022 just now. and there is a more evidence where we see direct pressure from the white house for its foot or 2 bands. her an account suspend them, take him off the platform and there were even get an angry that sweater wasn't doing it as fast. and as with many accounts as they wanted, the biden team was not satisfied with we just enforcement approach as they wanted tweeted to do more and to deploy several accounts. because of this, dissatisfaction, we were asked to join several other course. they were very angry nature. we then saw doctors band, for example, even people who were citing a publish study that was already out there,

but they wanted it gone from twitter. twitter did suppress use many from doctors and scientific experts that conflicted with the official positions of the white house. as a result, legitimate findings and questions that would have expanded, the public debate went missing. we have dr. martin called drove, and he is an epidemiologist at harvard medical school and the heat sweets, it was his expert opinion on coven, 19 vaccines. but straight away he was dismissed, he was put a label, not said misleading for violating the company's coven, 19 misinformation policy. and that he was supposedly sharing false information, thinking that every one must be vaccinated is as scientifically flawed as thinking that nobody should cover vaccines are important for older high risk people and their caretakers. those with brian natural infection do not need it, nor children. so even though here we have an expert and he is tweeting about his

expert opinion and that opinion, by the way, was shared by many medical professionals around the world. still because it didn't fit the cdc guidelines. they basically had him suspended. and another example, this is a funny one, actually there is a woman, a self proclaimed public health fact checker. and what she did was she replied, it's who it suites using cdc data. so data that the cdc produced itself, she was quotes and last. and she got slapped with the label, misleading, but that sweets itself that she was replying to, which actually contained the misleading information. and i'll read it. the actual tweets that this form replied to cove. it has never been the leading cause of that from disease in children. so that's, that contained misleading information was allowed to stay, but their reply was deemed misleading.

a chinese energy technology company as teaming up was as and by way mining firm to invest in the african countries, lithium industry. this comes this by a heavy restrictions on raw lithium exports by africa's largest lithium producer. the export of the bow and lithium can only be taken place with the permission of the minister of mines and mining development. lithium mining has become one of the main industries in symbolic and recent years as well demand for the mineral has spiked chinese company g. c, l energy technology has announced a recent deal, which will see it invest in the african countries. lithium industry. it says that cooperation was in by way, will enhance its competitive business at a global level with at least half a 1000000 tons of lithium reserves than by way is becoming an increasingly attractive prospect for foreign investors. zimbabwe has the largest lithium reserves in africa and the 5th largest in the world. the metal makes up nearly 60

percent of its exports, and 16 percent of its g. d. p. according to those in baldwin government, the country loses around $1800000000.00 a year in revenue due to smuggling and unregulated exports. is then bow an m p explained to archie the reasons behind the government's decision to restrict let the exports also say global organizations like the world bank are stopping africa from growing we are talking just from one mineral, we is africa a talking or for a budgetary support from the will to bank, which has not been availed for the construction of inga dim which can produce about $40000.00 megawatts enough to feed the energy sector for the wall of africa. but because the well to bank is them actually money to buy the ist, well colonize us. they do not want to africa to grow. so the is need to use what we

have is africans to get what we can get to in power, our sector, because we, we are sanctioned by the global community as, sorry, by the americans in the east. well, colonizers, they would definitely not one to zimbabwe to benefit much from both the early fem. and from there you banquets us amount of mineral wealth industrialized taking of hostages. that's how a british m. p has slammed the arrest of 7 dual u k. iranian nationals, by iran, toronto cases, the suspects of leading reese an anti governmental riots. the network which named it sounds. i gross gathered together anti revolutionary agents from both inside and outside the country to pursue plots against the islam mac system. especially in the recent unrest. the 7 arrested have been involved in planning, leading and producing content, as well as organizing and fueling the flames of the protests. processor opted back

in september after the death of a young woman while in police custody. the event spark nationwide on breast, including violet flashes with police. more than $500.00 people died including at least 60 police officers. the iranian government has designated the unrest as the rebellion orchestrated by external enemies, including the u. s. the u. k. and israel political analysts side mustafah co share them says up foreign forces meddling and iran domestic policy is nothing new. their networks have been operating inside iran for the past 3 years. dom bolton, the former national security adviser on the donald trump appeared on our bbc parachia to say dead thought he has seen armed opposition are providing gar, you know, guns, law to rioters inside iran, through euros with the borders and go to san province. there are many please hold

saying that they are operating in iran and it's no strange to see that they used to do that in 2009. they did it in our 5 years ago. they did it also some 3 years ago. meanwhile, the u. k. for an office says it is waiting for more information on the issue from the iranians. last month, britain security service chief accused ron of attempting to kidnap and even kill, so called enemies of the regime on british soil. and now a c or m p is calling for british citizens to lever on immediately. if i was a british foreign national in iran, i would absolutely be leaving. because there is evidence that they will use them in any game of chess, they can, and they will face brutal repression. i would encourage anyone that was western to try and leave iran as safely as they can. political analysts say mustafah kush as again says toronto has every right to take action against threats to its national

security. it's quite clear that the u. k. will start pressuring the wrong espionage and of harming iran national security. like in any other country. it's quite a serious charge. they have been arrested as they were operating actually, and organizing riots and not protests, but writings. and they've been leading the riots on british colonialism. killed more than 100000000 indians over a 40 year period. that's according to an article summarizing academic studies of the occupation. according to the research, at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, british colonial practices were responsible for a death toll exceeding that of both world wars combined, making it one of the largest loss of life events in human history. another study suggests that over 200 years of british rule,

nearly $45.00 trillion dollars of the country's wealth and resources was plundered . experts say that the colonial period had devastating effects on india, deepening extreme poverty and raising mortality rates. historian and senior fellow aetna, room, memorial museum and library pill kumar explained how the british colonial rule has influence india's development because we always know that we would exploit it, but how much was the amount and how much was the movie? this report is a wonderful attempt to expose the religion to india, but at the same time, if you go back to the dot, the figures off that right, it should only be up the message. and what i call the, you know, side you to be, i would just be done by the british. i don't think unified bellows it any other country. when this communion is a game to india. india was the leading economy in the balance

of trade. was it? and yes, field they were bringing gold and silver. they said, well, they're going to buy things in india, which led to my attention to europe. we had a craft industry, we had shopped industries, we had of us buy season of the things. they converted india into a commercial growing better country which was horrible. the 2nd best you got to mean the was some people said, is that a or can find the dream scheme development game. but that came in and we country and he can really show and see what all do it without colonialism, we want somebody, we don't live in order to collect them. drug screens, the blood of jesus and they're trying to make these guy know a ukraine wants to hold

a p summit at the united nations to put an end to the conflict. but it doesn't anticipate russia taking part that's according to the korean foreign minister. he added that russia must face a war crimes tribunal prior to any direct negotiations. the idea of the piece formula is to fault on the one hand, not to allow russia to manipulate the issue of peace. because they are regularly say that they are ready for negotiations, which is not true because everything they do on the battlefield, cross to the opposite, prove the constable to the contrary. they're not, they're not seeking piece. to get more on the story we across lives, there are 2 corresponding kale mob and kayla. what more do we know about kids calls for talks, though, without russia's presence? well, you just heard the ukrainian foreign minister, who said that russia would only be willing to and allowed to participate in this if

they have faced a war crimes tribunal 1st. and furthermore, in his remarks he went on to say that he expected ukraine would do everything possible to quote when the. busy war by 2023 on throughout the year of 2023. and now it's important to note that ukraine just recently secured for itself, $1800000000.00 more and aid. and the nice big package from the united states that included one patriot missile. and the ukranian foreign minister says this is an incentive and that into other countries, they should step up and provide ukraine now with weaponry of a similar type. ok, now it's important to note, not only as ukraine suggesting that somehow you could have peace talks without russia participating. they've gone as far as to try and put forward the idea that russia should be excluded from the united nations. even though the soviet union was a founding member of the united nations security council, they,

they tried to exclude russia from the united nation, something that has no basis legally within the un charter. there's no mechanism for doing that. now, while we've heard these kinds of words from ukraine, one thing that we have heard is there have been other world leaders who have called for things to go differently. turkish present error one, for example, he has in the past mediated previous russia ukraine dialogue. here's what he had to say on the matter. nills a q, but unfortunately, the west has only made provocations and failed to make efforts to be a mediator in the ukraine, russia war. and in addition to the fact that we have voices like arrow wines and others saying that negotiations are the solution and wanting there to be real talks to resolve conflict. while ukraine wants to exclude different countries from the united nations. we've actually heard the leader of india calling for an expansion of representation on the security council. he's

talked about democratizing the you and making it more of a fair playing field. here is what president modi of india has said. member states from latin america, africa, asia, and the small island developing states should have credible and continuing representation in the security council. decisions about their future can no longer be taken without our participation. equally important is to make working methods and processes of the global institutions, including this council more accountable objective and transparent. now the u. m. secretary general antonio gutierrez, has said he is ready to mediate some kind of t sun. however, you would only do so if all parties agreed to participate. thank you, kayla. that was kayla mopping. meanwhile nato's former supreme commander for europe says the west must enable ukraine to strike deep into russia's territory. he says

the us should review its policy and give key at the long range weapons it has repeatedly demanded. i think we should review our rules regarding the types of weapons that we supplied to ukraine. and we should give them more opportunities to inflict deep strikes on russia. ukraine is now fighting russia on behalf of the entire western world. and i would say to all our politicians, if you have already limited your actions in order to prevent our armies from fighting russia, then you must do everything possible to provide help for ukraine to defeat russia. this comes amid reports from former u. s. intelligence officials who say the cia is actively engaged and sabotage inside russia. the campaign allegedly involves long standing sleeper cells with the c. i accused of using a european nato allies by agency to carry out such operations. the operations reportedly include planned attacks on railway bridges, fuel depos and power plants across russia. with sabotage and subversion,

there is a psychological component as we need to send a stronger message to putin. you may see operations in moscow and other key cities . nato troops are ramping up their presence near russia's borders. the u. s. unit clause closest to the fighting in ukraine. the 100 and 1st airborne division is now stationed in romania, with its commander, saying his division is ready to carry out any mission ordered by the pentagon. meanwhile, the hungarian defense minister said last week that nato's battle group in on gary is ready for deployment. independent ducks journalists, san javan, the net, and they said the nato's commander statement, once again filled the alliance with hostile aids towards russia. 20142016 or russia is a terroristic or not terrorist state, but it should be defeated because it's a big trend to europe. so he then already said that you must be prepared to go to

war with russia. so this is only reaffirming it that you wrote, or nato actually wash. we've russia, as before, medical already sent it. that means records was just to preview to the, to miller, to try ukraine. so yeah, i mean it's, it's also used it a and yell toward already since 2014 torrance has criticized. she have after one of president zalinski the 8th called for the targeting of iranian weapons factories over the countries a legit arm supplies to russia. we reject the accusations of the ukrainian leadership. we do not take part in the ukrainian conflict and are ready to help resolve the crisis and establish peace in this country. we consider threatening rhetoric irresponsible from whichever body it originates. the same man came in response to a ukrainian presidential advisors call for the destruction of iranian drone and missile factories here, claims that iran is supplying these weapons to russia,

which is using them in ukraine. something that both moscow and toronto have strongly denied or on top military official has also said that the country is determined just for instance, it's drone industry and cooperate with other nations in manufacturing. u. a b's market says he hasn't presented any evidence that russian military has been using iranian made weapons. herani did admit supplying a small number of drones to russia, but underlined that this was done before the outbreak of the conflict and ukraine. she haven't term claims to have recovered iranian drones produced in the past few months while iran has denied these plain tron based world studies. professor, what is audi? says you praise paul, to destroy iranian factories, is a threat that violates international law. hello, this is against the you in charge. if you're not supposed to attack other countries, you're also not supposed to threats another country,

so threatening iran or any other country is against international law. but you know, after talking with ukraine that has widely says international law for many, many years they have subject that their own citizens and the speaking citizens, the most severe discrimination that killed their own citizens in the civil war. that the government created from 2014 to 2021. so the government is guilty of a lot of thrust. that is, and this type of it is something could be expected from people who people who came, came to power through it with the more pressure they put on the, on the more pressure russia, the closer these countries get together. and they're going to help each other a what and some presidential that's why is it a key of this? enter kias says franz has only itself to blame for the recent unrest in the

countries capital, noting that the violence in paris is being caused by the same terrorist organization. the west provide support through out the middle east. this is p k k in france. the same terrorist organization you support in syria, the same p k. k that has killed thousands of turks. kurds and security forces over the last 40 years. now they are burning the streets of paris. will you still remain silent? classes broke out last week, routine pro curtis protestors and french police following the murder of 3 curds at a local cultural center on car based journalists to laura. as lynn says, the west is now suffering from its own ignorance. violent flashes that had wounded j. o bought $22.00 french policemen, then tech show co boyland, a group can be took. he has full long oh, want the european union, its members especially france and germany which will stay large,

accommodates your p k. k sympathizers that to one day. and these kind of hoops to terrorists linked hoops, kendall, so turned on themselves into a tech out there. they are old countries, not only turkey. so i think the weekdays, the latest has been a good example for france, but we still see that you are being countries in western media don't even mentioned the name to k k during reporting. so these latest clashes and what took you saying is that the european union should, quote, a collaborates with on kara on this issue on curbing the pic a prison in their own countries. and those were the hour's top news stories from around the globe for more 247. our news had over to r t dot com and thanks for tuning and we'll see back next our.
