an engagement because the trail when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. ah, a critical piece deal signed by ukraine 7 years ago was actually used to give ki, have more time to prepare for war thoughts. the confession made by former french president of francois, along with help proof of the dip all to come up in the program. today. india's military successfully testifiers, an upgraded version of its newest supersonic cruise missiles, which it say's will ensure a dominance on future buffalo feels on palestinian authorities. la shell, it's as well. they describe as israel's ethnic cleansing policies for expanding

settlements and the disputed westcan with or catching the program from today across the world. welcome to moscow. on the news hour on rti, i'm going to need another former european liter francois alone has confirmed that a momentous piece agreement designed to end the conflict. and don, boss 7 years ago was actually used to give, give more time to prepare for war against russia. yes, angela merkel is right on this point. since 2014 ukraine has strengthened its military posture. it is the merit of the minsk agreements to have given the ukrainian army this opportunity. thus the time that prudent thought was an asset for him turned out to be in fact, an opportunity for the ukrainians. so 3 of the 4 leaders who participated in the

piece they'll have now confirmed on all cheerier purpose of their past intentions. the deals approved by the un security council back in 2015 was presented by the european leaders as the only option for sustaining peace and stability in ukraine. apart from mr. allan, former german chancellor merkel and x ukrainian president polish jenko have admitted that the deal was actually meant from the very beginning to buy time for a key of to strengthen its military. to 2014 minsk agreement was an attempt to give the crane time. he cried, yes, this time to become strong as you can see to day, the ukraine of 20142015 is not the ukraine of to day. i needed the minsk agreements to gain at least 4 and a half years to build the ukrainian forces to build the ukrainian economy, to train ukrainian forces alongside nato, to create the best armed forces in eastern europe, according to nato standards. will despite those recent confessions,

e u powers and ukraine have previously accused russia violating the minsk agreements. we heard from the founder of their new site. don barza, insider, who says brussels now has lost any legitimacy for brokering peace between russia and ukraine. after the latest revelations that he may quicken said hat with woo, we will, we will discuss with people worried july. so yeah, so obviously who signed the paper in 2 years after i said, no, we just misled you. we just cheated it and we like to you, you can discuss with these kinds of people. you cannot sign any agreements with them. so, so the credibility of the european union is now completely destroyed. and so they have no need you to the, to, to, to, to talk about any peace talks or any peace proposals. or, i mean, because russia will, of course,

not find any paper with them. because now the russian authorities have been to that any paper assigned with the western leaders as absolutely no one you absolutely no more attacks and efforts to route political opposition. those are among the new years resolutions presented by the head of national security service. he said, and the reason that and view the other main goal would be to neutralize any support for russia. within ukraine. i can predict 3 things seem to come in year. more blasts and new special operations of the security services of ukraine for the cleansing of the 1st column and fence of the russian world inside ukraine. and most importantly, a new legendary victories of the grand defenders will keep as a reminder, is already engaged in trying to eliminate the use of the russian language and the former soviet republic as well as rudolph cultural and religious ties,

including by seizing property from the orthodox church, there are also reports of ukrainian troops committing atrocities against local residents, sympathetic to russia, in areas that key of the military has recently taken from russian forces. we heard from finished journalist, yellows, common, who say that ukrainian authorities are violating their own countries constitution. first to fall abolishing the political opposition parties now. oh, totally closing down the medius and haunting down people who being otherwise than the official narrative agenda. this is terrible. great. doesn't exist. us goes to do tional state anymore. what we witnessed, ordered 2022 has been well. other things to do with this claim. seeing operations oppression though, granted people to quiet down to keep their mouth shots. and though these bob lic,

humiliating is cooking people do to pose these are really great pictures. what we are getting and receiving from crane and most terrible thing is that they don't even trying to hide what they are doing. now a german humanitarian aid group that's been providing food and other crucial supplies to don bos. residents over the past 8 years is now facing criminal charges over its support for the conflict written region r t spoke with the organizations leader in an exclusive interview. 9 mpeg. dawson, at shortish, our organization is being charged with article $140.00. this means justifying an aggressive war, which is absurd because we have been observing the situation on the ground and dom bus for 8 years. we have witnessed with their own eyes. everything that happens there, we have been providing humanitarian assistance to dom boss for

a very long time. therefore, we cannot at her to the slowed in solidarity with the grain because of the fact that we do not proclaim solidarity with the grain. we are facing charges under article 140 of the german criminal code previously before the conflict in ukraine woke out. the pressure was there too, but it was not and such an aggressive form. it was not criminal charges. the always stuck sticks in our wheels. our bank accounts were blocked, so we could not transfer money to transport companies hard to deliver humanitarian aid. dumbass. we sent various requests to parliament. why a 1000000 years were sent to ukraine, but nothing was meant for and never reached a dumbass. we called in the german government to make efforts to stop the conflict in a dom bass. but such behavior is not welcoming germany. now. there is no legal security in the country any more. we are facing total lawlessness. now there is no legal

security in the country any more. we are facing lawlessness. i mean, there are banning humanitarian aid for using set symbols. this is a political decision and the government made it ukrainian ambassadors wrote to us asking us to stop our humanitarian work. the german media attacked our activities. we are now portrayed a separatists and pro russian, which is not the case at all. however, we continue our work despite the bands and media hate campaign. all the struggle and charges, despite the fact that or to video did not fall under the qualification of the article attributed time. and the decision is exclusively politically motivated and illegal. ok to another over a headline stories this december, the 31st. the indian military has successfully test fired

a news supersonic cruise missile, that it's a house and extended range and will dominate future battlefields. the earth to surface missile was launched by a russian designed, su, 30 fighter jet. it hit a target ship at a distance of 450 kilometers and that be of been go off. india is eastern coast. the su 30 is a significant part of the indian military deviation fleets, with around $200.00 currently in service, new delhi jointly manufacturers the aircraft with russia. in recent weeks, india also successfully test fired i new killer capable ballistic missile. we heard from a former indian ur force marshall who sees the modernization of the country's military is currently a top priority test was a combination of a c, some development over the last few years. let's the significant capability, the most important jointly developed by

russian the ideal and these to be a very important platform as well in the bridge and in terms of operational revenues of action. ramos gives a significant utility like any country has the modernization, growth is linked to the financial doesn't but entry processes, but also in all bank frame that tend to take a long time. and certainly, lucian, nevertheless, the military, but it will respond and it this one of the, obviously it's the leading military by the way to be. but because even, you know the minute, but a nuclear capable of india never been paid. and with the significant nuclear modernization that taking place there is no doubt that you will

consider major military the us military say's american forces have conducted hundreds of operations against the islamic state terror group . this year. around 700 militants have been reported killed in syria and iraq, but mornington remained silent. both potential numbers of civilian casualties from those actions, despite numerous claims by eye witnesses are to kill. my pen picks up the story. the us central command is tooting its own horn, boasting medic killed 686 suspected isis members. but one thing it doesn't mention is the possibility of civilian casualties resulting from it's operation. let's review the battle that took place at the prison in al has soccer syria. me

i use use use. what about the boys that were being held hostage? 2 of them were killed in battle, however, the fate of hundreds of them remains unknown while the us central command losses over this detail. human rights watch reports that a teenage inmate was killed by a us helicopter strike. that was shooting at all a cell block. i ran out with my friends hand on the way my friends got killed in front of me. 14 year old,

a 15 year old. i got injured in my had and my hand. i lost a lot of blood. there's a lot of injured people screaming from pain, a lot of bodies that bodies. this is not the 1st example of the u. s. military covering of casualties. it's a bit of a pattern. the new york times got its hands on a number of reports through the freedom of information act and it went public with them. the reports showed that flawed intelligence emphasized targeting and rushed operations resulted in the deaths of civilians over and over this never bother the white house fighting even went on to falsely claim that there is no combat mission going on. the 1st time since $911.00, the american president visited his region without american troops green, engaged in combat, and a combat mission in the region. but today, i'm proud of, it will say that the land wars of the region wars involving huge numbers of american forces is not on the way. i'm actually made this claim after he told the u

. s. congress that troops were deployed in iraq, syria, and yemen. u. s. troops were sent to somalia this year ramping up the drawn war against al should bob with us central command saying that its operations against isis will continue in 2023. no way. would this ever even begin to account for the 10s of thousands of lives lost by u. s. military strikes? it's bombing missions. it's sanctions, which are sometimes the biggest killer. the big refusal to allow material for reconstruction, for medical relief, for food. all of this c, u. s. is guilty of and when they are forced by overwhelming publicity to give a limited amount of money to one family. because the actual images were caught on video to the heart of the world, then they'll make

a pay off. it doesn't mean that they have any interest, any possibility of reconstructing the lives that they have intentionally destroyed or even keeping count of all those lives. as i say, they do not count civilians that they've killed in all of these attacks. right. another story to bring you today, the international criminal court in the hague was upheld a 25 year prison sentence for a former uganda and warlord. joseph coney was the leader of an extremely religious group called itself the lords resistance army used abducted child soldiers. he was implicated in atrocities, had left an estimated 100000 people dead and drove millions from their homes. ah,

one day at night. my glad man. mamma wasn't getting that to we. we live home, we go to different home. and it was telling me that he saw somebody before luna always catching dad children. so at night these people came on kick diddo and they started to fade thoughts with a real bad me in a young che lousy window nor anything from. but i was not that this is they, but people because those that they to paid at with their help with of course you will not add anything. so no, i no options. you have to follow their doors eve, you say to day, you are going to move nowadays. you have to move and be in a young child. i don't know any directions where these people are going. if you

said you wanted to raise, you say ok if you want to rest. eudoxia on it is, was, is eve, you said you wanted to rest? no one desk with the impact of the conflict. it's too huge. so i lot of people within the community lost the family members of so many people lost their property. so this to a lot of resentment. okay to the middle east, newly reinstalled as really prime minister benjamin netanyahu has value to mc settlement expansion in the west bank. a top priority. forceful reaction from

palestinians immediately followed. the state of palestine rejects didn't exceed earnest, violent, racist, and incitement to ethnic cleansing, policy guidelines of israel's new government. this agenda isn't existential threat to the palestinian people, and they're ineligible and inviolable rights. israel settlement policies hump being criticized by b u. n. special coordinator for the middle east peace process. he said they violate you and resolutions and international law. after new guidelines were published, some former is really diplomats wrote a letter to mister netanyahu saying the policies would damage. israel's global stunting. local residents have also declared their concerns that mil her vehicle miles east extremist government has every intention of conducting an escalation against the palestinian people and set its eyes on. imposing is raleigh control over the west bank and the rights of his rather people through all the land shop around the world. the i'm a little palace, indians have tried these governments,

but this is the most extreme and racist government ever. but in light of the palestinian division, it doesn't look good for them. palestinian areas have been in flames this year. more than a 175 palestinians died in the west bank and 56 and gaza danielman. hello these gollum and seeks to take all of the west bank increase the presence of israelis settlements these here has been the bloodiest as many palestinians. val intentionally targeted and killed, which means israel wants to ethnically clans, the west bank, and clear all palestinians from it. as is sad in these rally media will defense policy analysts the mirror or, and say's the incoming government may be detrimental to future peace in the region . this is a very dangerous period because for the last 14 years now he's really government. most of them, of course, we're headed by the time, you know, there was a period of the year and a half, not to leave. and you know, where the hell,

none of those governments has advanced the cause of peace. but the incoming government threatens to set back the cause of b by expanding settlement by directing that by ability of the future policy state. and even within israel, there are problems is really society. and therefore the government is seen by many israelis, these really population and baby legal, but not legitimate. a court in the west african nation of molly how's imprisoned? a group of soldiers from neighboring ivory coast on an empty government conspiracy charge, ivory coast has maintained that those $46.00 soldiers were to serve in a un peacekeeping mission. but molly said they were mercenary, seeking to overthrow the government. they were sent institute decades in prison.

the economic community of west african states grouping, which previously included molly but suspended the country because of an electric who last year has said it will impose restrictive measures on less. the soldiers are free. local reporter told us more. 2 days of audience advocacy and contradictory debates with trial of 46, i voted military was not open to the public. no witnesses, only law is where allowed. the main question was to know if they are meant to louise are not in by marco. the question has low reason to be asked is just it. i wouldn't say that this trial will be able to definitively. so the problem, this premise is stated by the molly and government. the government has evidence to say that they are mercenaries, but in the document we received, it is specified that they are ivory and soldiers. but if the molly and government

maintains its mercenary premise, they have their evidence more here. i think it's political since the beginning. we can imagine that it was politics, so it continues on the same path. we can only wish for a good outcome in any case, but the way it goes, it looks like an arrangement met on december 22nd. the orient delegation left here and on december 29th, the trial began. so we can say it's like that because if it's expedited like that, we can imagine that it was a gentleman's agreement verbiage to follow up around 2 p. m. local time, 20 years of criminal and present my phone before the c, i voted ministries. in addition, there will be 2 media on look. can i see air on $3200.00? the verdict is still copied and serial. and according to our sources, this is a part of agreement concluded, getting rid of the president will give initial address saturday evening. it

probably fits every new year where he could get a presidential pardon group in. we're good to go. the topic is on the top meals, and people are curious to see what going to be the outcome of the story. i like the molly injustice system wants to go the way it took up the case. this is the sensitive. you have to know what really happens, what nice people wanting before releasing them. i don't think it's an arrange trial . i don't think there's a deal. i think it's more part of a separation of powers. the justice system will do its job to check whether the information primarily provided by the monumental thorough thing that they and mercenary is true or not. we have seen all the names that have been attributed to the mercenary, to the soldiers. we saw abidjan table, the response that was given. we saw that at the very beginning, the matter was neglected, that we see with the information revealed by the molly and i'm sorry,

this is serious quarry lane, military is out of the beginning. there were finally 46 in the 3 we live of a group where free for human italian, louisa back cave was in court room thursday and friday, and there was sentence to death penalty in a safe way. then we will see what i do on india has call for global assistance on crypto currency regulations. thing a common approach is needed according to a financial stability report issued by the countries reserve bank. oh, well the group to acid market remains volatile. they have not yet been any spill over onto this ability of the formal financial system. the accumulated experience, however, suggests that they form an unstable ecosystem to address potential future financial stability risks and to protect consumers and investors. it is important to arrive at a common approach to crypto acids,

while crypto assets are currently unregulated in india, but new delhi has declared the issue of focal point estimates. there are over 100000000 active users in the country. quite a number. we heard from a deputy head of an indian crypto currency platform, who said that regulation could be beneficial to both the state and users. the r b i has said is nothing. you know, every 6 months the, i'd be a shows a similar statement and similar warnings about on crypto things get interesting in 2023 because india has become the president of g 20. what that means is that up, you know, india against tier of global discussions at on crypto the indian prime minister b, m, or d, as well as the frame at the finance minister and manase that armand had been speaking about the need for a concert, a global effort to regulate crypto, so i think of that in 2023. you will see a lot more action on those lines. are all of us know that the crypto cannot be

banned by the regulation is a step in that direction because it was a framed for all stakeholders to abide by. ah, gala, to wrap up, the news are in europe, kosovo authorities are free to young men who are previously detained for saying this self declared republic is serbian sovereign territory. the release came upon insistence by the international community service president. i was also issued condemnation of pristine, his actions on this obscure how to pull, the southern people are determined to no longer tolerate terror, and especially i am afraid of the casa water. it is almost 2 in the following weeks of height and tensions, things do appear to have been d escalating in the region with the road block set off by ethnic serbs in kosovo. now being removed, sir b as leader. how said belgrade managed to avoid a potential catastrophe with possible nato involvement, artie contributor nichol your which gave us his insight on the issues the hours of

. ready serbian president vintage and his wine and a half hour long interview on television, where he explained the concentration regarding the possible serbian port, foreign policy and other things that will be important in the upcoming days. first of all, he spoke about the barricade saying that he had a really tough time with the terms, trying to persuade him to take all the barricades in that he got the res, strict and from guarantees from the international community. there is the western countries that are still coming to they are part of the deal regarding the arrest and served the, the plan, the rest and everything else signed in the brussels agreement in 2013. that comes as a bit of a shock since only 2 weeks ago he spoke about the fact that i'm going to merkel said that means agreements were only a preparation for the war with russia from,

from the inside. and that means that the west can be trusted on similar agreements, and this is from cause it took these very harshly and barbara them are afraid that now christina will continue their appreciation of service. and even today of course . so police forces were seen walking freely across, was committed to another series, which is a violation of the agreements itself. on the 1st day of the barricades were removed regarding the situation in russia. he said that he received a new year's congratulations from booked and that that message will be handled over to him by a russian investor. and so be able to join, cool, and also spoke about the ties to vmc wagner because there's enough, spoke a lot of times about their presence on the barricades. and he said, and they are not the president in serbia. and there have nothing to do here. on the

other hand, he himself spoke about the agreements. thing he did not agree to form the serbian municipality because he also, or anything else he just advised the care for international forces to remove the barricades. otherwise they will do it themselves. so discount is also something that is rather expected. and it is certain that the current crisis will not be solved by the serbs. just simply remove the barricades simply because of that, that situation because nothing, and glad to them, bringing those barricades hasn't been effectively solved so far. not for reporting on the conflict in done by a german journalists could be facing jail time. now to help next on the chopping us, something like that could be possible today in europe, in our short documentary, red alert germany ah.

with the national fema barnett by showing a cup of tea. robert in the book us yet i just loudly wish pushing it. i did thing and then you'd be able to and of course ask us about doing your best deacons. i thought of you just leave me a shout. chava shaleeko spot living. dan, no, julie much when any.
