4:01 pm
crux on palestinians hugging national slides in public claiming for a symbol of terrorism. with midnight in moscow. welcome to the global news roundup. minority my names you know, need the former leader of brazil year to both scenario has been hospitalized in the us state of florida with abdominal pain. it comes to me violent protests in the brazilian capital, where his supporters demanded new presidential elections. both scenario has condemned the violence. see, he only supports peaceful demonstrations. i want to show you as well. protestors take him to the streets of sao paulo, blocking roadways on monday. this is video we've received from the country's largest city. several cars were torched by the protesters of brazil shipping. courthouse suspended the governor of the capital,
4:02 pm
brazil. yes. after cried storm. the presidential palace and other government buildings on sunday. ah, amid the heavy clutches, law enforcement use tear gas and detain some 1200 involved in the rallies according to police that the 70 people were reportedly injured with several in critical condition. president lula da silva, as declared a state of emergency for the rest of january. that has deployed the military to try and stem the unrest in the capitol hill. the protesters are believe to primarily be supporters of the previous leader. yeah, you are both sanara last october's election by a relatively small margin, uncontested. the results. he's denied any involvement in the protests and has condemned the violence. while current president lula said, authorities are conducting an investigation to roots of the perpetrators of the riots when well,
4:03 pm
joe biden and other western leaders have issued scheming condemnation of li, violent demonstrations. i condemned the assault on democracy and on the peaceful transfer of power. in brazil, brazil's democratic institutions have our full support and the will of the brazilian people must not be undermined. i look forward to continuing to work with president lula, my absolute condemnation of this soul from the democratic institutions of brazil, full support for president lew of the silver, democratically elected by millions of brazilians from fair and free elections. full support to lula da silva and his government to congress and to the federal supreme court. brazilian democracy will prevail over violence and extremism. however, when it comes to denouncing protests around the world, western leaders can be selective to say, the least earlier, my colleagues, re sushi america gazda if talk through washington and europe's approach. so let's
4:04 pm
talk about perspective here. murat if we can, because i so certain western professional partners, they, they support protests in certain countries that say latin america for now, but then they don't support protests and many other countries as well. it, it almost seems like there's some sort of preferential treatment going on here. how would you pick up the reaction so far to brazil? well it's, it's much more simple. what drives them the people who, who support or condemn these protests ease, entirely selfishness at is that is the world we live in. so what bought joe biden, ah, what joe biden, you know the instructions for him or what is good for america? what serves american national interests is good. so if, if a protest is there and potentially could unseat someone that the united states doesn't like, like the chairman and he, in china who will of the spiritual leader in, in iran,
4:05 pm
and they're all for it. and they couldn't care less if it is in the country that is wedded friendly with the united states. and that is going to cause pain for the united states. and of course that they will never support such a protest. i mean, look what happened in a, in it, for example, venezuela, right? you had them event, a president, just label a guy, a president. there was no condemnation when he attempted to school military building, the military sorcery said buildings and even a military airport. there's no condemnation, but no one elected this got you whenever elected him. and here's another example right here, 2030. what led to these bloody conflict that is currently that is currently happening in you, craig? so, so they're saying that this was an attack on, on democracy. what happened in what happened in brazil? the same words that they use for what happened on, on capital hill. so going against and the let the president jerry 6, you're talking about exact?
4:06 pm
yes, in ukraine, my doug, you had protesters burning police alive. you had people killing each other, storming state offices, the govern, trying to unseat a president who was elected legitimately, who was congratulated by the state, the part and then who was on the stay on the stage and my down square. you had victoria newland, angela kane, john lee, k, and other american politicians finding out the flames in ukraine because it served us national interests served to regime change interests for her regime change. in some instances, it is more beneficial to, to change the regime in other instances as a result of that to keep it in place. and you talk about and protests, demonstrations and you know, if indeed there is some hint of potential regime change there, as you well know more that just straight out of langley virginia's play. but when it comes to regime change, you know, well about the. 8 arab spring, that kicked off in 2010. what, what about the color revolution? serbia?
4:07 pm
2000 georgia, 2003. i mean, i'm preaching to the choir anti murdad will precisely, and you have the state department balloons, resources u. s. a bad now in so many antonio's yeah, because that is the instruments that they use to fun opposition to fund radical nationalists. the fund various a liberal pro western media outlets added to so. so de said, you do have companies on board now for example, made her facebook has just come out and said that it will now start censoring any post that he's in support of the protesters in brazil, in advance of the election, we designated brazil as a temporary high risk location and have been removing content, calling for people to take up arms or forcibly invade congress. the presidential palace and other federal buildings. we're also designating, this is a violating event, which means we will remove content that supports or praises these actions. you now
4:08 pm
have these huge tech jobs censoring so as they did it said the stories to, to protect joe biden. sudden, for example, twitter, facebook. we have now learn. and then now involved here in this, in protest and demonstration, which, where they go a, you have very can companies, starling, for example, sending terminal to a wrong to help the protesters o organize their hold. this is about freedom and democracy mirage surely. well, it's about american national interest. it is always be about about american national interests, and that is that is the naked truth. latin america specialist, danny shaw says that if similar demonstrations took place in the likes of cuba or bolivia, u. s. social media companies, along with the white house, would be firmly on the side of the protesters. the hypocrisy of meta facebook, twitter of social media,
4:09 pm
which us imperialism has used at times to fuel rebellion, whether it was in china or iran. and now they've defined what's happening in brazil, violating the event, no question if this was cuba or venezuela, nick, i believe you know him by way or, or china, all of the us in the full gamut of social media and the mainstream media and media would be celebrating and promoting this uprising the right now, no one wants to take responsibility for what happened in brasilia about 24 hours ago. but to this point, i think it's going to have a boomerang effect on both scenarios. small, i think the ball scenario camp is more deeply divided than ever. there's going to be full scale investigations. ok to another over a headline story. today. dozens of iranians gathered outside the french embassy
4:10 pm
into on sunday, protesting against cartoons of around supreme leader, published by the french, typical magazine. surely the crowd set fire to a french flag while jumping death to france. iranian say, the latest magazine cover is provocative and disrespectful of the country, sculpture reminder in 2015, a dozen people were killed when islamist opened fire. in the surely do offices in paris, after the magazine published cartoons of the prophet, muhammad archie, contributor rachel marston, blues, the french government have rejected taking any responsibility in the matter. instead accusing around and suppressing free speech really seems like mac hole and the french government are kind of blowing all of it. all french officials are using these caricature of the supreme leader of iran, which were submissions to a contest held last month by the french satirical magazine, shaqia, due to basically say, look, we, the french government aren't going to get involved with whatever
4:11 pm
a french magazine is doing because we are above that and we believe in free speech . have alyssa does. everyone can, i'm of is a pretty teacher said keith pipa the wrong policy. is the one followed by iran, which practices violence against his own populations, which his particularly shock came. let's remember that in france, press freedom exists contrary to what's happening in iran, and that this is overseen by a judge within the framework of an independent judiciary, which is something that iran knows little about. so they're not only refusing to take any responsibility for the shadowy of no cartoons, but they're even projecting or throwing the responsibility back on to it wrong. but the iranian government sees things much differently. the foreign affairs ministry now is slamming france for complicity to silence over the cartoons. in other words, failure to act, to do anything about all of this. and t ron has characterized the cartoons as insulting and offensive not just to the wrong,
4:12 pm
but to all muslim countries. france has no right to insult the sanctity of other muslim countries and nations under the pretext of freedom of expression. brawn is waiting for the french government explanation and compensates reaction and condemning the unacceptable behavior of the french publication. over the weekend, french president in monroe mac hall, honored the 17 victims of the attacks by alti the inspired gunman on shadley ed dose paris headquarters. back on january 7th, 2015. now that incident was also linked to shockly of those religious caricatures, specifically of prophet mohammed, my whole has consistently defended shortly. abdul caricatures, in general, back in september 2020 during a visit to lebanon. he said, quote, it's never the place of a president of the republic to pass judgment on the editorial choice of a journalist or a newsroom. never because we have freedom of the press. but apparently,
4:13 pm
michael doesn't quite feel the same when it comes to free speech that targets him personally. back in 2021. mackerel, sued a french billboard owner michel alice feel. he who had made these huge satirical images of mac hall and posted them up there for the world to see including one depicting mac hall as adolph hitler in the artists. protests against mac holes covet vaccine mandates and other restrictive mandates related to the pandemic. now that calls a lawyer jaw in though she said at the time that the lawsuit was brought against this person, this billboard owner. because quote of the offensive nature of the comparison of the president of the republic with adolf hitler. so an insulting to pitchin of the french president is worthy of vicious legal pursuits to personally punish the
4:14 pm
person responsible. but when it comes to insulting the leadership of another country, well then free speech absolutely needs to be defended at all costs. as for french officials, new found respect for freedom of the press. again is easy, be reserved for press, they like and not for say, r t or other russian affiliated media, which has been banned by the european union with apparently france is blessing because they don't seem to be raising the issue at all. so when it comes to both freedom of speech and freedom of the press in france, the government mileage clearly varies depending on how it squares with their own interests. an agenda. well, on this story, we spoke with side mohammad brown, the dean of the world studies faculty at the university of toronto, who believes france is guilty of double standards against iran, while also insulting the nations culture. french journal was not just trying to
4:15 pm
insult the iranian leader. it was trying consult iranian religion and culture and the religion and culture of hundreds of millions of people in west asia and abroad . and for them that's called freedom of speech. but when it comes to a iranian voices, herb west, the west and the french, the french, they sanction all persia, iranian media, all media affiliated to its allies. and the french also, ah, inc. have media in persian that encourage riots and violence in iran. so for them, freedom for, for the french side is very different from freedom for iranians. they have extraordinary that will standards now, it appears the western mainstream media has finally spotted neo nazis in ukraine.
4:16 pm
in a recently published article, the new york times claims that russian nationalists and neo nazis have joined volunteer battalions to fight against. however, the same mainstream media has repeatedly failed to notice ukrainian, neo nazis and nationalists in europe with one of the biggest states own spanish news outlets are t. v. broadcasting footage of ukrainian refugees celebrating christmas in spain with some very unique declaration. let's show you this, that video show was the flag of the organization of ukrainian nationalists displayed behind the girl here as well as the portraits of nazi collaborators on dera, romano. they're known for their complicity and the slaughter of 10 thousands of jews and poles during world war 2 journalists, wyatt, read safe, mainstream media attempts to make nothing to the ideology,
4:17 pm
acceptable in the eyes of the public is hopefully needless fun. yeah, we're living through an attempt by the vast majority of the mainstream media to normalize and whitewash nazis. to make that ideology acceptable. i in much the same way that there was an effort to to round up and to utilize nazis in the aftermath of world war 2, when they were seen as valuable contributors to the anti communist crusade. i think we have a very similar dynamic playing outright. now. basically, these nazis are understood to be the most effective anti russian fighters on hand. so the people at top, it seems, seem like they, we, they think that they would be silly not to employ those people to create as much
4:18 pm
anti russian terror as possible. that's what they're good at. that historically, what the west has used them for. and so right now i think there's a push to make these kinds of people and ideologies acceptable in the eyes of the public so that there won't be any problems. continuing to funnel arms and money to the nazi paramilitary groups having stateside. now we're an internal rob has broken law. it's among republicans in the u. s. congress over a deal which was agreed to ensure a kevin mccarthy was elected as you speak of the house of representatives. not the full details of the agreement are yet to be made public, although potential cups to military spending may be part of it. the move is supported by many g o, p members. but some others, such as republican congressman tony gonzalez, say that producing defense spend, that's a bad idea. this has proposed billions of dollars cut to defense,
4:19 pm
which i think is a horrible idea. when you have aggressive russia and ukraine, you've got a growing threat of china in the pacific. you know, i'm going to visit taiwan here in a couple of weeks. how am i going to look at our allies in the i and say, i need you to increase your defense budget, but yet america is going to decrease ours. it was a historic 15 rounds of voting. it hasn't taken that long to elect a new speaker. the house since 1859 on a white, a historic moment. now it exposed very big divisions within the republican party. there are very, very different perspectives and in the single party that has taken control of the house of representative. now, at one moment, this intense war of words looked as if it was turning into a physical fight. there's an image that has surfaced over. we had a situation where republican mike rogers from alabama was being physically restrain as he was yelling at nat yates. now mat yates voted against kevin mccarthy being
4:20 pm
the new speaker. i got rather intense and then we had nat gates voted against kevin mccarthy. we're ultimately changing his mind. we had mat yates, i got to the point that mat gates was being called a fraud by his own party. that was what was said. matt gates as a fraud. every time he voted against kevin mccarthy, last week he sent out a fundraising email. what you saw last week was a constitutional process diminished by those kinds of political actions. we don't know what they got or didn't get. we haven't seen it. we don't have any idea what promises were made or what gentlemen's handshakes were made. one of the key issues of contention was a proposed cap on funding to ukraine. some in the more conservative and far right wing of the republican party just don't buy in the idea that more us money should be flowing into ukraine. they are not happy with the huge amounts of money of united states has been pouring the kia. ah, and it's also important to note that kevin mccarthy now that he has been elected
4:21 pm
speaker, the house, he still has a big fight ahead of him. i'll be fighting over the rules were debate in the house of representatives and zalinski, the ukrainian leader was the 1st to congratulate kevin mccarthy on social media. congratulate him on becoming speaker. the house of representatives bought the twitter exchange didn't go the way many were expecting. and here's how things went down. lens lensky chimed in to congratulate kevin mccarthy. you have got to be joking. you pathetic little welfare queen. so now you got your boy kevin, in your little hands, are out begging for our money again. you discussed me. zalinski is excited that his unlimited h. e. m is back up and running. no one wants to give you money any more, go away. so as you can see. 8 this is not exactly the image that biden in his administration of tried to present a for i to present. united states is all in favor, all and supported for more and more money and weapons into kia i. however,
4:22 pm
of the details, i don't seem to mask that public opinion polls show that americans are more concerned about problems here at home than they are about the situation in eastern europe. it's also important to note that kevin mccarthy, while he may now have the speakership, is probably going to have a talk year ahead of him. 2023 is a year in which there's not only going to be intense division between democrats and republicans. but now we see pretty blatantly there will be intense divisions between republicans and other republicans. the west hasn't done enough to help keep of so sais, the ukrainian foreign minister ukraine is grateful to partners for their military aid, but we should remain honest with one another. no one has done enough, as long as russian boots remain on ukrainian ground. arming our country for victory is the shortest way to restoring peace and security in europe and beyond. when it comes amid reports that the u. k is considering sending
4:23 pm
a number of challenger tanks to ukraine last week. the u. s. and germany said they would provide 50 brumley and 14 martyr armored vehicles respectively. while france promised to supply an estimated 30 year max 10 recognizance vehicles in what all appears to be a coordinated set of announcements and berlin housing rou. like deliveries of heavy leopard tanks to ukraine, either that's according to the country's economy minister. we saw that use of berlin residents with many pointing out the supply of such offensive military equipment, will only prolong the conflict. also shows on tradition is a lot of especially since it's coming from a government that claims to be green or to have green values or left wing value centered on peace and things like that. make peace with our arms and above. but instead they try to achieve peace by supplying war machines. and to me, that's a perverted logic. those people who think like this is who think them or weapons
4:24 pm
help any one but the arms industry. i don't know what's wrong with their brains and what's happening inside of their minds, sort of an industry as we fin. okay, well, i'm definitely not a fan of the way germany is handling the issue of arms supplies. i know that there is a huge market for this, but i don't like the fact that we are supporting it in such a strong way. i think that money might simply be more important than the opinion of the people like it is often the case. and fortunately, flat out get us, i don't want the government to simply ignore the people you know. maybe they should give better explanations for their reasoning. but they should also take the opinion of the people in so count law. while alternative for germany, m e p gunner back told r t. the continued western supplies of arms makes it difficult to start any kind of piece dialog. the ukraine has been calling for increased western military support for almost since the beginning of the con,
4:25 pm
initially that support was more limited, but the west is down step where the devotee blair, i think, hard to you grades attitude. so if what is interesting did a peaceful resolution, a piece for the quick piece for resolution about this conflict, bio dependent is that the west of that to, to get the west and the increase in rest ability to support is not helpful. the best be the recent call, which shows that 49 percent of the job and population opposed to any kind of military support for your grade. why is the government but chris to get ahead of the less? well, it shows that the government is obviously not responsive to the popular
4:26 pm
desire for peace. unfortunately, for my point of view, job of the political establishment has changed position as they've got a lot further than the previous while on a related seem intense fighting is reportedly continuing near the key frontline city of our channels in don bos along with this strategically important ton of solar dar. this is the latest on verified footage from that time showing fighting on the streets there. a ukrainian army colonel has reportedly been killed near at c was allegedly in command of the earliest defense to the middle east. israel's new national security minister has given an order for palestinian flags hanging in public places to be taken done, claiming the glorified terrorism. it is inconceivable that lawbreakers will waive
4:27 pm
terror flags, incite and encourage terrorism. i have issued instructions for the removal of the flags which support terrorism from the public space into stop incitement against the state of israel. freedom of expression does not extend to identify with the terrorist and those who want to harm idea soldiers. well here's what supporters of palestine had to say about the hard line is really ministers order daniela's death . the step in decision to remove palestinian flags from public places or to criminalize their display is not surprising from a fascist government that is taking off in his railey society. and somehow this government always tries to cancel the other from a racist view and a zionist view. another we are accustomed to the oppression of the occupation with regard to the palestinian people, but we did not expect anything less from these steps because ben veer's approach is clear, i am abby. listen of everything that is palestinian and restrictions on us while he is coming with a clear approach to the world that he is against everything related to the
4:28 pm
palestinian identity in jerusalem and in all of palestine. been, thea thought all 3 of them, this decision is the height of racism and israeli extremism, and contradicts all international laws in the world. first, it forbids raising the palestinian flag in the city of jerusalem. but the city of jerusalem is the capital of the palestinian state. also the city of jerusalem is an occupied city according to you and resolution $42.00, which means that it is not recognized as the capital of israel. so this is against international laws. i would add to that that every citizen has the right to raise his flag wherever he is. the us flag is raised in jordan and it is raised in france in italy, as well as the french flag. any frenchman raises it in any country, he is in there no international laws that prevent a person from raising the flag of his country, which he cherishes on an additional line. israel has suspended
4:29 pm
a travel path for the palestinian foreign minister, which allowed him freedom of movement in the west by that came in response to palestine efforts to involve the united nations court of justice to moderate the decades long comp assistant minister for multilateral affairs in palestine. amara had josie told r t that his people will continue to speak guide for their freedoms. unfortunately, it has never been an accountable for any of the violations of international law, including the violation of the you and charter and court of international law. international human rights and union humanitarian law. and this is why is it seems 3 and has a free hand to, to apply all of these kinds of the unit of measures against the international, against seeking justice then to national level or the for the senior people. and their, their struggle to achieve the right to self determination. and of course,
4:30 pm
forgetting that knowledge and of israel also started with the united nations biosolution 181, which is the only legal documents that i have accessed it to the stablish ment of this state. so is there it is fighting also the, the body that, that's created is in the 1st place. but the senior people do not intend to relax in their struggles to fight and to continue pushing forward in seeking the right to sell determination, including at the international level, whether it is it's double on the ground by continuing the steadfastness on the ground floor. whether it is to resort to international mac and it is which we are entitled to the chico silence may not be very well known to most but half a cent.
