and they're playing media, then you know very little about the conflict in ukraine. the fact is, ukraine is loosing. on this addition of cross talk, we discuss how this conflict is likely to end ah, russia says germany wants escalation after berlin announced it's sending tags to you praying following months of pressure from nato allies. china says the us better mind its own financial problems. instead of accusing beijing of being responsible for the economic crisis in african countries, like zombies and palestinians urge the west to help stop the israeli demolition of a key village in the occupied west bank as locals vent anger over the destruction of their homes. and will you, do we exist on the slam before israel government came unoccupied at

a message to the railway occupation. we will not leave these place. this is all property, and we will remain here with hello and good afternoon for martine or national studios in moscow. and from wherever you may be, watching us welcome to this hours most vital news. stories from all around the globe. i'm fiorella is about russia, says berlin is not seeking a peaceful solution to the ukraine conflict. and it's focused on permanent escalation that says germany has caved in and approved, sending 14 of its main battle tanks to ukraine following months of pressure from nato allies and kiev. once again, we see that germany, like its closest allies, is not interested in a diplomatic solution to the ukraine crisis. it is focused on this permanent escalation and unlimited pumping of the key regime with more and more deadly

weapons. red lines are a thing of the past. as a 1st step, germany will provide a company of 14 leopard to a 6 tanks from bundeswehr stalks of a european partners will also hand over leopard to tanks. the training of the ukrainian cruise is to begin immediately in germany. germany will issue the appropriate transfer permits to partner countries that want to quickly deliver lepper. 2 tanks from this stalks to ukraine. several european countries including poland, spain and the netherlands, have already voice or intentions to re export their lepper to tanks, but had been waiting for the green light from germany. berlin's own previous policy of not sending arms towards zones was overhauled by its current chancellor, olaf schultz. the latest decision has been condemned by some german politicians. co chairman in parliament of the countries left party says the move will bring us closer to world war 3. the delivery of lay upon battle tanks,

which left another taboo, potentially takes us closer to world war 3 than towards peace in europe. the decisions are contained in making germany a war party doesn't have the support of the majority of the population lip. our tanks are the prelude to a possible sly towards a catastrophe. the u. s. itself is reportedly also finalizing plans to send its abrams main battle tanks to ukraine. the decision is expected to be announced later this week. american officials have so far decline to share any details. ralph ne meyer, chairman of the german council for constitution and sovereignty, says that germany's delivery of tags to ukraine breaks a number of international treaties and makes germany a direct party to the war in ukraine. it is a violation of article assassin off to you and charter, which clearly says that we cannot, nobody can legally send harms into

a sum of conflict. so that is number one. secondly, what is all said, claire is that nato tre t. article 5 credit is violated. because ukraine is not a member of nato, and we only allowed to move our military was in the defense off nato territory. and of course german law because article 26 of our basic. busy which some people say is our constitution is prohibiting us from participating from anything other than defending ne to territory. since 1945, we do not have a peace treaty. we just have a ceasefire agreement to post them agreement. we never got our food. some righty. and up names now, russia can argue of course and say, well, germany has violated safe fire of 1945. so having said so that doesn't leave us. we are becoming a direct party in a war as

a $0.01 more weapons to ukraine, to be used against russia, some european critics, they, the tragic lessons of history are being forgotten. their grandson, frances, world war 2 era hero charles de gaulle has spoken up against the arms flow, which has landed him in hot water on the home frames. russia was seen by my grandfather as an indispensable rear ally because it was part of his concept of balance in europe. a pro russian who owns it. that's how one of frances taught newspapers liftgate who has just described a piano good while asking quote, what has gotten into this advisory strategy and corporate finance holder of a master's degree in swiss resident to venture out at the age of 59 in the controversy where there are only blows to take if the name sounds familiar, it should be on the girl is the grandson of world war 2 era french general turned

french president shouted the good who is routinely ranked at the very top of the list of favorite french historical figures. alongside napoleon bonaparte or john doubt, joan of arc or scientists, li pastor, and navi cutie de go leather french resistance against the nazis during world war 2 . he then kicked the americans off a french military bases when they figured they might just want to stick around afterwards. he pulled france out of nato to secure the country's military autonomy . and here's what the girl said about russia at the time. for france and russia beings, united means being strong and being separated means sending up in jeopardy. truly, it is a categorical imperative, geography, experience, and common sense. the goal aimed trade deals with the soviet union who support against nazi germany. he considered critical during the 2nd world war. he also saw

moscow as critical in preventing france from becoming a vast the state of washington. and now his grandson piano. the girl has stepped forward to express his regret that france is marching in lock step with washington and nato. the same very entities from which his grandfather tried to protect frances independence, adding that he quote, felt it was my duty to restore the truth as the heir of the general till the generals, grandson, is being slammed by critics, by the likes of lucy gavel. as being pro russian when his position really just is pro france and looking out for french interests 1st and foremost, current french president emanuel and my call has repeatedly claimed admiration for president day. good bye has exemplified us, gets a frantic mindset of wanting to be a partner of russia. well, nonetheless, falling in line with washington's agenda. for example, advocating for a negotiated piece in the ukraine conflict before then calling for an outright

ukrainian win or life saying that russia's interests matter until western critics pylon come after him for the remark. and then he just backs down diego placed equal value in relationships with both the us and russia. with the french people being the top priority at all costs and all types. now it's hard to imagine de god telling french citizens as not home did amid the you praying conflict that the time of abundance, when it comes to energy, is over. all because washington decided that it was time to pick a fight with russia that hard france in europe, energy interest in, well, fresh, just decided to go along with it. speaking of which it was thanks to the girl that france became energy independent in the 1st place, through the construction of nuclear power plants, the same know how, who sail mac hole green lit to pentagon contractor general electric. when he was

francis economy, minister, p l, the girl is simply serving up a reminder of what the mainstream french position visa, the moscow used to be back when france was becoming great. again, the fact that the position of one of the most beloved figures in french history is now considered controversial, and even a tackle just goes to show that the country really did take a wrong turn somewhere. russia's top level not star gay live, rob has praised a growing relations within the african continent during his latest official visit to angola and went on though to command the unions peacekeeping efforts in the region. when would you missouri bug, but you should so we will continue to support approaches at the un security council . so aimed at resolving crises, situations in africa, promoted by african countries themselves. russia supports the consistent efforts of the african union and the southern african region president lorenzo plays a special role in those efforts. as we discussed,

the implementation of all the agreements discussed today within the framework of the rush africa summit and approved a new meeting as the summit at the end of july in st. petersburg or russian foreign minister, sir gay, live, rob, and his and golden counterpart have concluded their press conference after several hours of bilateral talks. the ministers discussed ways to deepen economic and political cooperation. specifically in the spheres of atomic energy and education live. rob said that russia will continue to provide angle and students with grants and education opportunities in russia. they also mentioned a potential cooperation in terms of atomic energy. and there was some talk also about the ukraine conflict. and laboratory said that russia supports the un charter, the sovereignty of all nations, as and is against intervention in the affairs of these sovereign nations. he also said moscow supports the african union and development attempts by south africa, as well as angle and peacekeeping efforts. assuring that everyone that russia will continue to support security efforts in africa. so that's basically

a rundown of what was said here in the capital of angola. angle as the 3rd stop of the leaders african tor on tuesday. laugh rob was an esquire teenie, were a visa, free travel arrangement for diplomats was signed. it was a 1st visit by a russian foreign minister to the kingdom since the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1999. on monday, oliver off also spoke with his south african counterpart where they agree to combine efforts to boost the african countries, atomic energy, bread and other infrastructure. mean miles on via has been put in the middle of a diplomatic spat between china and the u. s. beijing has criticized washington and its relations with africa. after the us treasury secretary accused the country of failing to al zombie a saw that step problems. even if the u. s. one day sold its debt problem, it is not qualified to make groundless accusations against or press for other

countries out of selfish interests because it cannot at all alleviate us. tremendous responsibility for the reason of the world debt issues. south african journalist, cut leg miss. so me breaks down the latest diplomatic spat between the us and china attentions between washington and beijing is based on the increasing geopolitical tensions between the current nations. i mean, washington is seeing beijing as a country that is making very big inroads within the african continent and is focused on that military power and the economic influence that it has on the continent. the also worried that the influence that china now has on africa will soon surpass that of the u. s. i mean the u. s. has gone on to accuse china of making inroads with regards to unfair trade and also taking out the natural resources unfairly on the african continent. but of course, china has come out to say that all the a cooperation as well as the trade agreements between themselves and the african

continent have been above board and rather for the benefit of the african people. now we do know that in the last week the us treasury secretary jenna t. ellen has been on the african continent. her state began on saturday in senegal, and this comes weeks after china had already come on to the continent to solidify some of the relations that it has made inroads with the continent of a number of decades. who also know that the russian foreign minister is also on the continent and solidifying. we know that he wasn't swaziland in south africa and now in angola. and as typical of the western jaelyn came out to say that the chinese have contributed towards the debt that has been accumulated. in zambia, we do know that zambia has had very close ties with china with regards to some of the influence and the economic growth in that country. now it's quite typical of

the u. s. as we do know that they are trying to weaken the relations that the chinese have with the african continent, but a little too late. since we do know that the americans have spent more time not solidifying they stance in terms of growing africa. but all the in creating walls and instability among many african countries, while china was making those inroads in terms of policy making, it has made, made investments, most of which have been loans to the zambian nation. however, we've seen 2 upgrades of a ports. we've seen, dams, we've seen telecommunications roads, many off the countries infrastructure has been developed over the years. and ensuring that zambia is not equal to many of its african counterparts with regards to being able to be more comically active with the kind of infrastructure that has been placed on that on the country. the inroads made by china in this ambien region has really benefited that region in terms of economic growth and can only seem to

benefit them even more. the russian defense ministry has released footage of its admiral gorge called worship, holding drills in the western atlantic. the crew conducted an exercise on involving its hypersonic sir con missile, utilizing a computer simulation. the admiral gorse car will then go to a take part in joint exercises alongside chinese and south african bobby's at the end of february. ah, now is the ukraine conflict escalates a 30 year old publication by george soros has resurfaced casting further doubt on the western narrative that nato at itala is have no stake in the conflict. the abilities piece discusses how crises could be manipulated by the u. s. for its own goals, through the use of european soldiers as cannon fodder instead of americans. the united states would not be called upon to act as the policemen of the worlds when

it acts. it would act in conjunction with others. instantly. the combination of manpower from eastern europe with the technical capabilities of nato would greatly enhance the military potential of the partnership because it would reduce the risk of body bags for nato countries, which is the main constraints on their willingness to act. this is a viable alternative to the looming world disorder. all the nato countries continued to insist they are not a party to the conflict, but this document from 1993, published by george soros is open. society institute gives a different impression. this document from 993 lays out how the united states and its allies might be interested in using countries across eastern europe as proxy device, russia. and they could incur the losses that might make the conflict on popular if nato countries themselves were directly involved, then it was their own soldiers who were doing the dying out of 2 and 2014,

in which the united states over through the ukraine government and installed a, fanatically anti russian group to power in kiev seems to match what this document put forward. what we generally here in western media is that ukraine is simply under attack, turning for help from the democratic west. but jeffrey stack of columbia university . he recently came forward and said that's not the case, the united states as overthrown dozens of governments. it definitely contributed to the overthrow of yanna ko bitch. and i know this from the inside, not just from the outside. so i just want to be clear, i will bid, i know from top people involved in these issues is what i'm discussing right now. now the soros document not only matches the situation where kia is having you as weapons piled into it and being supplied with weapons by the

united states. it also matches that the government of poland is very war mongering and hostile to russia. and furthermore, if you look at the situation, there are some estimates that the ukrainian casualty rate it, we may have seen over a 100000 dan. they are being carried out and people are dying to serve nato goal and yet has recently admitted. this is what been said. shouldn't krajina as the mindful today we occurring out nato's mission without the loss of their blood with but with the loss of ours. that's why they need to supply us with weapons. cathy and furthermore, we've had us officials admit that this is indeed the purpose of the conflict in ukraine. it's about serving nato's goals, the united states, age ukraine, and her people, so that we can fight russia over there and we don't have to fight russia here. ultimately, i think this is a sound investment for us national security because not only are we defending a country from authoritarian aggression,

not only are we taking one of our biggest geopolitical competitors down several notches in the process and we're doing it without us boots on the ground in harm's way. now it appears that the on a co, which government in ukraine wasn't the only government that the united states had its eyes on, were stirring up some kind of regime change and perhaps using it against russia. any place that you're looking at in terms of a potential regime changed, it could be stabilizer, region or, or the world? well, obviously a good one would be russia, but i don't think they're on the precipice there. i think things have to get worse economically and there have to be many more body bags and frankly, military losses before there's a change in the government. in moscow, we have a very casual statement from western leaders that they seek to utilize the lives of people across eastern europe. let them go out and die to serve their own

political agenda. and it shows that this whole narrative where ukraine is, you simply being targeted, it's a democratic country, just begging for help. it doesn't fit at all. this is part of geo political maneuvers and the u. s. is hinting at providing support to serbia and it's long reading dispute with kosovo. if belgrade joins anti russian sanctions, serbia has an important choice to make. they could signal it if they want to buy sanctions against russia. now i think that they should impose sanctions. i think that everybody in europe should impose sanctions based on what's happening in ukraine. but that's a choice for serbia to make. i just think that it looks bad for serbia to be outside of mainstream europe on this matter. why she said in brussels, have reportedly promised to aid serbia in establishing municipalities in kosovo and to speed up their e, you integration processes in exchange for the desired sanctions. that's after

e u. n. u s. representatives threatened the country's leader to accept a so called kosovo plan or risk losing their visa free program with the you as well as other economic penalties. littlewood attributes right away. it was communicated to me. they think that it has to be accepted. they used words like you have to accept this plan and if you don't want, i was told the process of european integration will be halted. investments will be withdrawn and comprehensive. political and economic measures will cause great damage to the republic of serbia. 7 guy, a professor at the institute of european studies in belgrade says the west is called for imposing anti russian sanctions. is a threat to serbia sovereignty. according to the un resolutions. busy 44 also are integral part of serbia, so this kind of. busy blackmail where the survey is being asked

to join these a sanctions. is a demand for serbs to capitulate because russia is serbia bass. i would say l i on the international arena when it comes to protecting serbian integrity to their tauriel integrity. to get her with china, they are the 2 permanent members of the un security council that supports a serbia's right on the, on the side of the international law. by supporting the resolution, which has of course, sort of mental here is part of service. and it comes to the most essential question for serbia, which is a territorial integrity that would be an act of high treason, whoever impose sanctions against russia. ah, how signs ambassador to the e u says european officials have condemned israel's atrocities against palestinians . he made the statement after high level talks in brussels beyond royal. so says

the e u has oppose israeli efforts to seize funds from palestinian authorities, according to report to europe is preparing an aide, deal with a $325000000.00 grant to palestinians. meanwhile, palestine foreign ministry has called on the western pressure israel to stop the demolition of a village in the occupied west bank. the play comes after a residence came out to protest against the destruction by israel. the crisis in the village which links the west banks north and south is part of it is really planned to destroy, so called a legal buildings. locals have voice their fury over the moon. and what are people came today to tell that's in the yahoo? bend of ear and all the extremist right wing officials that this land is palestinian. we did not allow the destruction of our hon. allah mark. this government led by the and yahoo had been given. we'll go to the dustbins of history,

and the palestinian flag will continue to fly on this land. and we'll do that. we existed on the sloane before this railway government came unoccupied. it a message to this railway occupation. we will not leave this place. this is all property and we will remain here. now i am not. we are afraid that al canal o'clock may be demolished because have been veer's actions. his electoral campaign was to demolish alcanar, alack, mar, and he is now forced to do so. at the head of the palestinian national initiative party told us the real goal of the current israeli government is to expel palestinians from their lands. if i'm kind of not a necessity up out of subjected to the process of being the other means the government to you. if that happens, this will lead different loan because it will be perceived 1st. the role as an act of beginning the annexation of the ban of the section of the new potential

being an independent. this is also another that we can any potential on the so called to sticks. so in my opinion, these are very danger the facts and this will be stopped immediately and they can be only with on the ground as well as a serious international pressure on israel. threatening with voice divestment sanctions. if it does not stop the processes of ethnic cleansing and delicacy, but more than that, this is really government includes the people who are described even in israel as fashion. the video in their goal is really to destroy the potential for being. and they continue to declare that the whole family is fine by the sun is exclusive for jewish b on. so practically that if let's what, what can be called as jewish supremacy,

a system of apartheid and racism. a good thing is that we are good which will not be fulfilled, i hope is to expel from that land. and the question, not only is it but also to consider life, and i did this and you know, why do you stand it? why didn't 55 years of military completion of the bank. and if you move on, as well as 75 years of ethnic cleansing, not assume good faction was used against, allowing it to be above the low above international law. imbued the so i responsibility to international law. this has led to their career some of the most extreme dresses government in this field this fusion. and that is one of the direct result of this international behavior that continues to use double standards when it comes to posting image. those are the hour's top stories for more up to the

minute. eas, updates and content had over r, r t dot com up next. businesses have no other option, but to shut down as energy costs hit a new record high as sanctions imposed on russia by the e. u. hinder gas supplies and have caused a major energy crisis. more on ortiz documentary in europe on done see even 30 with l. look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where such order that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence at the point obviously is too great trust rather than fear . i would like to take on various job with artificial intelligence. real. somebody

with a robot must protect this phone existence with a wrong one. i just don't know. i mean, you have to figure out this thing becomes the advocate and engagement. it was betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds more, we choose to look for common ground. if you've only followed the pronouncement, the so called analysis from western governments and they're playing media,

then you know very little about the conflict in ukraine. the fact is, ukraine is losing on this edition across stock. we discussed how this conflict is likely to end with a killer form, the initial be wonderful not to get a deal can use to put body when you, when you do origin. but you also the, with the done those a, what i see the student bus is the little gear motivation, says diesel tutorial,

gumbo sub ah, blowing sanctions imposed on russia in the you and elsewhere in the world. electricity and gas prices have risen sharply. protests are taking place over year . no upper spend a day has been based on cheap annuity coming from russia. russian gas jeep and she bows, affordable and ship. you are in a stable, which has been proved, not the case. and the access to the big china market, these are well that is no longer there.
