ah, so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms. race is often very dramatic. that development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully very critical time. time to sit down and talk ah, that is the last stronghold. all the laws have whole gradient followed just outside the city wagner. true. so troops have made significant progress towards the bar, and he joins russian volcano group troops, if they a thought, be fido ukrainian position on the outskirts of sola. dog. recently taken off the weeks of heavy fighting with china unblocked india,

distressing images. ah ah, this is solid, done. the city fell in just 2 weeks, or rather, was taken by the wagner, private military corp musicians, as they had known who's with

the waterloo, had your wounded. this assault was lively city fightin is wagner, speciality we have no equals. despite be the resistance. we took the city quickly, testament to his words of the open air moves that have appeared and solid off in every district packed with ukrainian bed in there, hundreds upon hundreds ukrainian soldiers. those killed in solid are left behind by the ukrainian military as its retreated. 102-030-4050. see it goes on and on. this is something of an of an airy sus would. of these soldiers are their corpses locked rigid

in the position that, that they were in when they were killed. obviously you can see the details, but some of them are missing limbs, others with bullet wounds, shrapnel wounds. it is difficult gathering the more at this time because as you can hear because of the continuing fighting, it doesn't end. the orchestra is relentless. they allow the enemy no rest with burger, the poor. this was once a school which they turned in the fortifications from here. they fought badly or tried to 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in chief said in all weather the ensemble attacks and the tax that is my number 7 over there. in the distance above the kilometer and

a half. that is the last stronghold or the last handhold ukrainian tom followed are just outside the city. wagner, troops sold troops of made significant progress towards the mine. the complex itself is, is all but surrounded. as i say, at this moment, an assault is underway with endless artillery support. what's more, we've learned that the orchestra have taken hundreds of enemy troops, prisoner or not all of them ukrainian watching over. but when they were a great many foreign mercenaries, as well as foreign weaponry, tolvey was seized and sent to be checked for damage. on the whole, the cities call we are ready for more action. sana die is neither their 1st law clyde no triumph. wagner has proved itself time and time again. it is

a machine of war spawned in violence, tempered by battle, wetted by blood, and endlessly hungry. for more, more at gas t o. r t solider pakistan's prime minister said his country is open for quite serious and sincere talks with india to discuss points that a crucial for both countries. my message to the in the new to ship and button to moody is that let's sit down on the table and have citizens into talked to those all od burning issues. when it comes as india's proposal to place pakistani terrorist, the outdoor raymond marquis on a global black list gets approved by the un security council that's on the beijing's lift of a technical hurdle. preventing the process ortiz. when jan sharma has more details,

there was several attempts made to designate up the remind marquee as a global status. the last attempt was made in june of 2022 last year by india. and that in fact, that bit of india would blocked by china by putting a technical hall and then the technical was usually lost for about 6 months. now that speed of 6 months is or, and the u. n. s. c committee has finally designated marquee of the global debt. it is what it's going to do, is shook all the terror fundings of this particular individual. not just that, but it's also going to cobb, he's travel movements as well as any movements around china has healed up today. mon marquee being designated as a global tell this to by the u. n. s. c. very, very interesting because to be in the navy was focused on in china that india has

duffy diplomatic relationship with really offering india a honda fees. such terrorists are not only against india, but against humanity and against all the innocent people of this world. so it is good that china has supported us in this. they have secured their own future through this so that they can also ask for help if faced with such terrorists. who is the outdoor re mine, mark he? marty essentially is 2nd in command and the deputy chief of large, great eyeball. he's also the brother in law of lush. good bye, bye law group. diabolic editor organization for all walk asked on which has the boston fact been involved in several terror attacks in india. for instance, 2611th attacks in mon buy. also, alaska, that i bought is known to disturb the fees and stability in india on several occasions, especially in jam, more means less credits i buy has also cleaned the q and in fact, it has known to cause a lot of sell this in the vision and which is,

why are this development for india is exceedingly significant. the diverse world economic forum and as it's 2nd day with the chinese vice premier, delivering a speech focusing on his countries vision of a global economy by the world. let's go of the cold war mentality. dinner 1st, we need to uphold the right principles and maintain the effect of international economic order. under the new circumstances, the traditional way of thinking cannot provide the solution. that is why we have to abandon the cold war mentality. try to understand the nature of things, from the perspective of material duality and dever, to build a community with a shared future for mankind, and join hands to respond to global challenges. second, we need to strengthen international macro policy coordination and strike a good balance between inflation and growth to tame inflation. some countries have

chosen the policy that will likely result in the hike, recession recovery loop. but it is important to note that inflation this time around is ruined by multiple factors. apart from the demand side, suppliers side measures also needed to repair the supply chains and preserve energy and food security. or this as the south african president scraps his plan to visit the forum with russia's business icons noticeably absent even long time after even long time diverse attend a businessman and philanthropist. george soros wasn't in attendance on german chancellor alive schultz will be the only g 7 member joining the conference record low attendance from the group other well need, as i said, to be tracking attacking more pressing issue, tackling more pressing issues back home. and earlier we spoke to the director of the philippine middle east studies association, who says the chinese representatives address reflects if countries wish to play a more significant role in the emerging multi polar world. be helpful,

understand is that the continuous howard competition between the united states and china. and of course, the evolving landscape of the international order towards multi polarity, has significantly shaken as the you know, the power in place of traditional power is in the system. and this of course, may create more tensions and more power competitions as we all can witness. and what the key has actually mention to was the cold war mentality. also illustrates the push towards china's advocated global security initiative. you know, with really bad funded disapproval of alliances and the emphasis, particularly in asia for asia for asia. so of course, you know, trying to gain significantly from the liberal economic order, but it's global ambitions continued to rise out. it seeks to represent itself as the pioneer leader of the emerging international order. we could definitely see

that china speaks to promote a sort of leadership that goes beyond a binary approach, as, as that of the east versus the west, or the cold work project is likely mixed signals from the e. u. i made it attempts to further exploit the african continent or desperately needed fossil fuels to replace europe, rush and gas impulse of the e. u is doing africa to go green on premises some help. our friends, for example, on the african continent, have resources for renewable energy in abundance. what is missing is the infrastructure. and therefore, there we have a common interest so that this infrastructures being built up while the faded meant by the e. u is really misleading on many friends. first of all is play lose with the truth

referring to african countries as friends following rather sketching, pause, but 2nd of all, it is also true that the european union has really blocked africa from developing some of his fossil fuel fines on the continent. and the for the system that we must punch through and follow through with regards to only looking at green energy investments. and therefore that's why you find africa still suffering from this energy poverty. you talk about green energy. well, green energy in africa is not as paramount as energy itself over 600000000 people in sub saharan africa continue to live without electricity and that is pivotal to africa, development and if industrialization we can get one without the other. and therefore, any is of paramount importance on the continent alone. but more and more, we, finding african countries compromising their own energy use in order to be able to

get some of the much needed foreign exchange reserves. but this is all kind of a greater story about how the european union and america have consistently blocked the development of african countries. and particularly putting sanctions over them that some called an instrument of wall. i mean, you look at the things that have been levied against the country, like as in boy, even as the country gets to the brain. greeley of these sanctions have not say that they have not moved and many as saying that they just the way for the americans and europeans to force ordinary involve wins to vote against their own government. the number of african presidents who called for these illegal unit lateral sanctions to be lifted at last the united nations general assembly was of only and this by the

call growing into a chorus. the europeans and the americans continue to be tone deaf to the calls of not only zimbabwe, but the region and a continent. we want to urge the president of the republic of zambia and his friends, the europeans, and the americans to talk on behalf of the people of them. baba the issue at hand is very serious. we want the sanction stability obs, bava. we are not happy watching what has been going on and above. now there was only but one says in zimbabwe has been innovative. introducing a gold coin last year in order to generate some of its own revenue. despite of the things that have been placed on them, by the way, it introduced it in july last year. this coin only yesterday, the touching you hi. going as much as $2002.00 on the market, beating the price of gold and from point in the london stock exchange. and despite

all of the international monetary fund continues to call on them. bob, when local authorities to reduce the use of the gold coin, saying that they mean to use more traditional means of interest bearing instruments . in order to said, monetary policy cares. western patrons are investing in ukraine as their proxy. it, while preventing the country from even considering pace talks, does, according to russia's foreign intelligence chief, let's get the details, not from ortiz way to blevins rate, so get to see. so what else house like a nurse can said about the latest international development over the ukraine conflict. that's right. well, russia's foreign intelligence service director spoke out in a recent interview where he touched on a number of issues including revealing that a future meeting with the head of the c. i could be possible and even useful, but that no date has been set just yet. now that's after the 2 officials previously

met and then car, back in november, where the tropics they discussed included the importance of preventing nuclear war . now, as for the possibility of those future talks with ukraine, russia spy cheap also said that they had been prevented by what he referred to as ukraine's overseas masters. he noted that countries like the u. s. and the u. k. have implemented in preventing the possibility of talk between russia and ukraine, saying they are sending the message to key a sensually saying the quote we have invested in you, we will continue to invest money in weapons. your task is simple. go to war. now the u. s. government has revealed that it is not pushing key to negotiate. and at the same time, ukrainian presidents lensky has even signed a decree that prevents him from having direct talks with russian president vladimir putin. now all of this cons as moscow has said, that the plan that he has put forth would be impossible to implement as it would require all land borders, including those of crimea,

to be solely dictated by ukraine. now, in his latest comments, russia spy cheap, did say that he has had regular dialogue with officials in europe, where the topics they've discussed have included ukraine. now all of this comes as he also noted that right now, russia believes that the threat of kiev creating a dirty bomb has been stopped. and that's a major issue that moscow has been warning the international community about. and that's the latest as it stands right now. re too many thanks for the update on se rachel blevins. ah, and will the 90 a un nations have of the israel to lift sanctions that it is placed on the palestinian people that's awfully cold on the international court of justice to investigate israel's annexation of palestinian territories. we reject punitive measures in response to request for an advisory opinion by the international court of justice and more broadly in response to general assembly

resolution and call for their immediate reversal. well, the chain of events started last month when the un general assembly adopted their resolution prompted by the palestinians that coals, honda, international court of justice to give at legal opinion on age rose annexation hand to legal status of his occupation of the palestinian territories, official, jerusalem condemned the move and called it auntie's railey initiative at the you and as a response, decided to seize around full to $1000000.00 of the palestinian authorities funds and diverted to these rally tara victims plus cancel the p. a for ministers, special travel permit and denies several benefits to particular palestinian politicians. and now 90 countries including france, germany, denmark, japan included. actually those who abstain from voting on the resolution,

signed the letter, expressing their concerns over what they called these rarely, punitive measures. urgent ease wrote to leave the sanctions and a pause from signing the letter. several countries actually made separate statements using very strong words. seeking an advisory opinion of the international court of justice cannot and should not be a cause of unity measures. for anybody, any time. germany has joined a large group of young men, the states who have signed off on this statement. this group agrees, and the rejection of punitive measures and response to the resolution. all that i have to say adds to really tense and violence situation here on the ground with these rarely new government. choosing a really hard line regarding palestine in affairs with radical statements and sometimes of an open coals for violence and confrontation from different israeli politicians. and officials becoming everyday reality here with israeli arm intensifying their military rage all through all do occupied west bank. and as they

call it counter terrorism activity, which civilians die from both sides according to the palestine in health ministry. in 2022, these rarely forces killed at least $170.00 palestinians all throughout the west bank and the occupied east jerusalem, including more than 30 children and we are now in mcdaniel, for instance, the beginning of this year. more than 10 other palestinians were already killed. so now with this resolution, a un resolution passed, it seems that the international community started being more and more concerned about the voluntary ality here. and that angers israel that believes that this is their rhone business. they are internal affair and walks prime minister has defended the continued presence of american and of the foreign troops in his country. and this v a published on sunday mohammed al, the dani said there are no plans to resume foreign combat operations in iraq. the

notice that external forces provide important logistical support in the fight against islamic state terrorists. the pm's comments come amid controversy as parties control and be a rocky parliament. are lined with o iranian factions, which oppose the american agenda. the u. s. military invaded iraq back in 2003, following washington's vow to destroy saddam hussein's weapons of mass destruction, which were never found. after withdrawing his combat troops in 2010 at the us, redeployed his forces in 2014 on the iraqi government request for help in defeating iso, the bite and administration concluded the official combat mission in 2021 but left some 2000 u. s. troops in iraq, allegedly as military advisors. we heard from some locals who oppose the american presence in their country. alada hannibal goodman, although to thus we oppose the military presence of any country, particularly neighboring countries, which has had a negative effect on us,

especially after 2003 as we've been attacked by foreign countries, such as iran in the united states of america. which affected iraq negatively rather than positively. meanwhile, the iraqi government supposedly should act. however, these countries and the external interference have hampered its capability to address the issue. out of the door, the international coalition has been useless. on the contrary, it bombed the rocky popular mobilization and the security forces. it is completely unnecessary. there is no need for their presence, and we, as iraqis do not support this matter, becket coordinate on, in my opinion, the neighboring countries have been involved in the continuation of ices because the neighboring countries seek to keep a rock vulnerable. moreover, it is in their interest for a rock to remain weak. so they help isis, even if they disagree with it, ideologically. these countries have no interest to keep a rock strong. that's now discussed is where the award winning journalist at his

her and on upon dad martin j martin. many thanks for joining on the program this evening. so interesting, isn't it that the iraqi piano that choosing to defend the u. s. military presence in his country? yeah, what's your take on his comments? it was a shot. it was, it is cause a lot of media control will say today because most people go the other way. coming from a sheer policy which is part of iran's influence in the region. most people thought would be logical. the one of the 1st steps would be to pull out american troops, us would run once. that's what a lot of she is in iraq, one. but if we look at his statements on face value, sometimes the truth is easy to remember, isn't that i think we can, we can, we can say that his arguments are actually quite sound once you know, 1st and foremost, he wants to keep good relations with america and money wants to play the understood, which he thinks can only be interacts interest by the most the troops to stay. though i think the americans reached out to him and made it very clear to him from

the moment that he came into office that they should should stay there. and a big part of those troops being in iraq is not to keep the lid on. ice is growing again as it did before, but also to serve logistical interests of americans in the region, particularly they bring syria, there's a huge intention of s t of soldiers which, who are, who are aligned to america and who work with the region. but i think he reached out to the americans. he played quite a small card and it also gives him some leverage. i'm at home with his own political parties, you know, who, who are always going to be asking him to reverse this decision. it's going to revel a few feathers back at her, and there isn't a, considering that the countries parliament is heavily pro iranian. what do you make of the motivation for such a controversial state me and then what kind of reaction you can expect from the iranians? well, it's going to be some anger, isn't that you know, but what, what you got to remember is that he's inherited a mess. i mean there's no,

there's no, there really isn't a country home of middle east which has the problems that iraq has in terms of corruption and the break room order, social and economic political problems. and there's a lot to be done there. and, and since the sudden the fly brand shia cleric who is although she is opposed to iran and has quite a significant storming of she is in the country he's just announce is going to come back into the political afraid. so despite the country, iraq itself is looking quite positive things are looking quite a beat for the economy. and i think there's a little pressure on else done a to do the right thing and try and keep this balance in the country. and hope that meddling with the balance of view as soldiers and ices. if we can keep that in check, then hopefully we'll keep the economy in check and there won't be any problems with it. so before, don't forget,

it's almost pressure on him not to pull the plug and send the americans out. this happened before. if you remember in 2011, when a bummer couldn't get assurances from the iraqi prime minister at that time on international rules which protect american soldiers, they pulled trips up the moment that happened. don't forget that created a sort of bush effect of ice is growing. i mean, it just doubled and tripled on a daily basis. the numbers are hundreds which thousands and before you knew it was a massive organization. and of course, that led to troops coming back. so this subject, this polemic subject of american troops in iraq, is a double edged sword. it's keeps coming back time and time again. and if you live a fun, an iraqi, you can, you can actually stick to one single argument. many argue that were doomed. when the americans are with us and when they leave symptoms, that must be some sort of a practical advantage. is that the american trip to offering to iraq them to make these comments? well, i think it's true context, you know,

i mean it would be really bad and it would look pretty pole with biden running up to 2024 for the trunk camp to bring the fist on the desk and say, look, look of what we did when we inherited the, the fight against isis, when from came into power, you know, he, he took the last last few months of the bombers administration. it was a bombers initiative, actually, to fight isis in, in the west of iraq and then onto, into syria. and i think, i don't think barton wants to give the opportunity to, from camp to point the finger at a rack and the see the implosion of the political structure. so i think there's a low ability of politics that plays and this is definitely a win for buying the moment. but you know, we'll have to see how it plays up. my son j award winning journalist edison, and on upon that always a pleasure. many thanks for joining us in the program. i thank you for joining us.

healthy international. we're back at the top of the i with the very latest news updates with with me. hello and welcome to was apart. and he's out of biography, the great american writer, mark twain describes being at the end of the earth club and witnessing it's chairman and retard army officer pronounced that we are of the anglo saxon race. and when the anglo saxon wants to think, he just takes it

a central later. this attitude is enshrined in many americans, strategic documents and speeches of its politicians. but can i finally find it and in ukraine, hopefully without the end of the earth? well, discuss that. i'm now joined from australia by benoit, come mark, senior lecturer in the school of global urban and social studies at r m i t university. melbourne professor is great to talk to. thank you very much for your time. it's a pleasure being with you. now you are very far away from the focal point of this new confrontation between russia and the west. the confrontation in which.
