is to look for common ground. ah ah, the local authorities say russian troops of encircled the ukrainian health city of r kimmel, in the den yet script public. that comes just a day after brushes, military cuts off a major supply route for key ebs forces or stories. and this our, the i m. f, predicts that russian economy will grow in 2023. that's that spike western leaders declaring sanctions imposed on multiple a, bring the nation to it and studying claim from a want to top advisor to former british pm forest. johnson who sees the u. k.

government is controlled by a quote, deep state. and the idiots who are elected don't with around the clock across the world. this is archie, great to have your company today to our top story. this our, we begin with the latest updates from don boss. an explosion has been reported in the ukrainian control city of trauma, tor skin that done yet republic, ukrainian officials, fame, a residential building has been hit with a number of casualties reported. emergency services are believed to be working at the scene in while another ukrainian hell city are to mosque, also known as black moods, is be coming increasingly encircled by russian forces, according to local authorities, and comes as russia's defense ministry said on tuesday, not the village of blanco doubt noise in the den. yes. republic has come under

moscow's control, not by securing it. russian forces have cut off a main ukrainian army supply route to the key city of archer mosque. there's been intense fighting in the area in recent months with western media reporting that ukrainian forces have suffered heavy losses or senior correspondent, murat. gusty of has been following some of the troops on the front lines whose task it is to target combatants from long distance. a pair of combinations plow the ground on route to that positions the enemy is far away. they are safe until they start firing a gun in from a foot out of it. if they're from o'connor, this is a to s one vote because self propelled howard, surfers in good for enemy troops. vehicles, fortifications, it's biggest plus is it's mobility, and we can fire on and be gone before the enemy reacts more than $10000.00 of these were built these fully amphibious and can sail with very little preparation. that's

quick, reliable, and packs a punch. i tug at in the infantry on the move. the crews are veterans of the 2nd army. cool. they are lugens glucose and many have fought here the nationalists since the beginning. almost a decade, yearly snip. so no, i'm not saying i understand that we have to do this. i have my children, family, and parents. we only have one path forward. it's a victory until about the middle of november, the initiative. he was firmly on ukraine side. but why so was able to

stop your graves offensive as launched several of its own. and now artillery isn't firing in defense, but rather in offense, russian forces have broken ukrainian lines around the cities of buck morton's ugly daughter fighting there. he's ferocious but smaller limited assaults are under way elsewhere. ukraine's military reserves are stretched thin losses. evidently, our enormous service aged men around the country are being kidnapped and forcefully sent to the front lines. do i what the good? no opposition or resistance is tolerated? any one who speaks out publicly against this is branded a russian agent or collaborator, to the said is crushing. hundreds, even thousands of civilians are mobilized every day. coordinated work in the

streets and even at home. and had a one way ticket to a battle ground from hell more. i'd gazda of r t from le ganske fraud, extortion, and sexual harassment. that's the scandal us based private military group, missouri has been swept up in the groups fonder under milburn, has been accused by the organizations financial director of those miss deeds. and more indeed, a 26 point lawsuits. how's the ledge, mister milburn of taking bribes from private businesses? i'm persuading the ukrainian military to protect specific private assets. he's also been accused of having a relationship with the ukranian woman who was getting paid $90000.00 us dollars per year to be a personal assistant. that number is reportedly 4 times the company's average compensation for a similar employee that moves our ceo has rejected the accusations. i'm instead

claim the company's financial director wanted to quote, sell moves are to the taliban, and re milburn has confirmed the group will re brand, though with the same people still involved today was the last day for the motor group, the motor group and it today. the name and entity had become the subject of litigation and the distraction from our core mission, training, ukrainian soldiers and breast queen civilians. but the mission and the people continue. well, it's not the 1st time that mr. milburn her spar controversy. previously, he gained attention by revealing he's not a fan of ukraine's government. they say corrupt society the let you know. so i'm not, i'm not a big fan of ukraine. it's not about ukraine. we're not like, i have to have, you know, you ukraine flank tied to my bag, but i'm not. oh my god,

ukraine. so awesome. no, because it's i understand that funny people running ukraine need cranium in violation of the hey convention. they're filming of a number of things that they're doing with p o w 's is fine. i think laura laura bomb conflict with earlier, my colleague reshay spoke to independent journalist option returns he who interviewed hundreds milburn just a few days ago option outlined where he believes the real focus of the probe should be hey, who cares about any allegations against the ceo the mozart group, the allegations are not about identity politics, sexual harassment. however, serious the allegations may be. the allegations are that a former senior colonel in the u. s. marine corps has been aiding groups in ukraine to monitor russians. that is the serious allegation. no other allegation is of any

importance, real question is why private mercenaries like the black water template being used to fight and kill russians and perhaps ukrainians in don't. bass of senior correspondent, motor gasdio has been down on the front lines in ukraine now and, and, and all over the country really for the past 6 and a half, 7 months. he said that when they capture enemy radios, they're called trophy radios. and when they crack the codes, they're encrypted. of course they hear the voice is mostly of polls. they hear brits, some other saying they've heard americans there. what is the role of the west and western mercenaries there in n, and is the western press, giving due diligence to the sheer number of westerners or europeans who are fighting on the ground in ukraine? underneath the radar, they supported the western press after the british secret services and the american special forces were sent in after 2014. there are now people from these european

union countries and the united states and britain in the conflict, actively supporting nazi linked forces to kill russian soldiers. it, sir, it's a sad fact that i suppose many will die and many would perhaps even understand what they were fighting for. who knows what the truth is between these private groups. all we do know is the amount of money circulating around ukraine, or whether it be the alleged corruption of zalinski in kiev, and the how many who knows how much has been recycled through u. s. weapons companies. northrop grumman, raytheon, lockheed martin, and boeing have $66000000000.00. was a congressional approval last october, 55000000000 center in the past 12 months. so who is getting the money? where is the money going? is the money really going to the united states weapons makers? ah, now despite a bombardment of western sanctions,

rushes economy is actually predicted to grow this year. the i m f say it will normally increase by point 3 percent in 2023. at the same time, the u. s. financial agency delivered a blow to britain's economic hopes with its g d. p. forecast to move into negative tertiary artie country to chris and discussed all that with me earlier. we've heard that the demon glean prophecy be coming out of every single western news channel and the head of state for, for the past year. but clearly not true. i mean, here i've got the statistics union. i mean, the, the more interesting thing is they're saying that the russian economy, you know, it's going to, it's going to grow this year by not point 3 percent. the probably the most interesting thing is their projection. so 2024 is that the united states economy will grow by 1.4 percent. but the russian economy will grow by 2 point one percent, which is really near the figure of china, right. and we take a country that in fight the sanctions, right?

we're taking a country that really, you know, transitions, the capital, the money in the 19th and, you know, didn't have a good time with it as be on it, as now, you know, sort of a powerhouse of, of economic growth. a post, see you mentioned the u. k. we absolutely failings, it's very interesting just to see these figures, what's behind the resilience here because as you say, for some time, leaders, officials have said that russia's gone, russian is not going to survive this bombardment of sanctions. but it is, yes, i think it, and it's really that the us in particular, but the west is we were fast the below the time thought that everyone would fall in line. the fact is that russians allies that take the prime example turkey, also a nice so member, refused to sanction russia. there's no problem with me getting coca cola, just like coca cola now isn't produced. russia, but it's been produced in iran. it's produced in beckett's done so they've problems on that. what we've seen is just all of this west and rhetoric, as you've said,

and we've actually got a really good clip that we can look at now just to show us what they said a year ago. the sanctions measures we impose today, i think without question, were the most consequential ever levied on russia and arguably, the most consequential ever levied in history. russia industry is in tatters. and it is the hamlin that has put russia economy on the path of oblivion. in concert with our allies, we would agree a massive package of economic sanctions designed in time to hobble the russian economy. at the end, we saw boris johnson. right. you know, barts johnson was telling everyone in the u. k. actually everyone in the world. i mean, he was one of the 1st people to jump on the plane and go and see that he probably wise is now saying he's got a name, a street off through being here. and you know, we look again, let's just go back to this report. we look at these numbers union, i mean the u. k. economy is now shrinking by not point 6 percent opposed to all the

european allies, which are actually okay, not the best figures, but nothing like that. and it's probably due to the fact that you just embrace u. s. foreign policy. u. k, has sent the largest military aid package, the ukraine, a pop 2nd to the u. s. an economy. there is no way near as big an economy that still reeling over the effects of brakes. it, right, so the real issue there. and on top of that, we've looked even the new york times, hardly a friend of russia telling us that the russian economy is going to recover on import an export. so the same level as before, the special military operation. so really, these, these numbers speak for themselves, but i think we can say it any clearer. the sanctions have completely and utterly failed. wrapping up his trip to the west by the us secretary of state has reaffirm washington's commitment to a 2 state solution to the palestine is really conflict. anthony blank and also emphasized washington's iron clod support for israel security. those remarks made in jerusalem sparked under the claims of america's pro,

is really biased. a statement by the palestinian president also claim, quote, atrocities carried out by the i. d. f are being overlooked. yes, the, this gum swell is really is being overlooked. and without being held accountable for its unilateral actions, inclin settlements, actual annexations of lance, cherish settlers storming palistine territories murdering displacing and demolishing the houses. boast indians g days in jerusalem. desecration of oxen mosque season fawns, long with ethnic lansing and apart sight. while on tuesday, protests broke out in the west bank and gaza over mister brinkman's meeting with top israeli and palestinian officials. some of the locals accused the u. s. of quote on justifiably siding with israel, our earlier when pressed by 8 report or a u. s. state department spokesperson refused to call the west bank of palestinian

territory. occupied by is really forces what kind of ignition you give the palestinians to the west bank. they reside in the territories resigned and totally independent as if it were a different planet occupied. you do subscribe to the fact that they are and then ministry, occupation, technical question and occupation. so let me say a couple of things. the point i believe i think i may not occupy. what is the status that you give the right for this moment? what kind of status did they said the recent period? i seen a strong recent, i am saying about legally audio in the past due invoice back in their stance. so i understand the question you're asking, and as we've said previously,

it is vital for both sides to take action to prevent even greater loss and we condemn any violence escalation or propagation. we spoke to the reporter involved in the exchange side, our account from the palestinian deli l codes. believe washington makes the 2 state solution impossible by continually sending arms to israel. then i stay is complicit and the reality of the palestinians on the ground. there is no 2 ways about it. then i say said provides israel with the arms in which it wages, aggression against the palestinian day in and day out. and i say provided with funds. then i states provides us with a deployment to cover that day and our nation, for instance, security council and making it impossible to have a israel held accountable to any of its abuses or human rights. and so, and so then i think more than just that it is the responsible party for what is

going on as far as the palestinians be denied their human rights, their national rights and their own land. 2 state solution is not possible, not the raise continue to steal the land that was designated where the area for the past in the director states. there are more settlers, there are 700000 and stuff. those are not likely to be disliked from where they are, where they are. a united states recognize in jerusalem as capital, including east jerusalem without recognizing ego some as capital for the past. and in the u. s. really pays lip service to that, to state solution and it's logan. in the meantime, we see that all hope for a 2 state solution at all, but they vibrate it. ok some eye opening remarks to tell you about from the former chief advisor to boris johnson. dominic cummings is plain that the u. k. government is heavily influenced by so named deep state in which

accountability to voters is far from a primary consideration. those kind of deeply entrenched institutions which actually practically control huge amounts of watkins with 0 to very little democratic insight. or even a knowledge and understanding the deep se, israel, the deep state actually controls vast majority of government. and most of the elected people have no understanding or involvement and what's going on. that's just a fact because a lot of what's happening right. this really gets re shoot, shoot, confusing or difficult. often what's happening is very good, sensible, intelligent officials with genuine public service. you actually understand what the hell's going on fall better than the idiots who are elected. aren't you trying to stop? did you to are being elected, doing terrible things and oxford university graduate, who's been working in back rooms as a strategist for the past couple of decades. serving more recently a strategist for the pro brags campaign,

and then as chief strategist for former british prime minister morris johnson. what cummings is clearly suggesting is that democratic elections are just window dressing. it's all just a big charade. the former top 8 explains how these deep state actors hid behind anonymity and made decisions on things like covered related locked downs, travel restrictions and anti cove. a job mandates. clearly they weren't worried about having to answer to the public coming, talks about the systemic, undermining of democracy with all the no sales of ordering up a pizza. and around the same time that cummings was musing about the deep state, a whistleblower came forward in the british press to disclose that the british army spied on coven lockdown critics, including high profile journalist, work i'm is doing should never have happened this domestic monitoring of citizens seem not to be driven by desire to address the public's concerns,

but to identify leavers for compliance with controversial government policies. fact that this political monitoring happened under the guise of contrary misinformation highlights how without serious safeguards, the concept wrong information is open to abuse and has become a blank check. the government use this in an attempt to control narratives on line . contrary to their stated aims, these government truth units are secretive and harmful to our democracy. so is this what cummings was talking about, sending the military to spy on those who oppose the narrative and rules crafted by the faceless, deep state actors he spoke of. who then used that information to craft responses that the 1st battalion of idiots and morons, otherwise known as elected officials, can go back out to the front lines and defend, in part by branding anything else that contravenes or contradicts the official

narrative dis, information. how exactly do they manage to square all that with the image of britain as a free democratic and transparent system to which other country should aspire? sometimes under the threat of sanctions, sounds like perhaps the u. k. should 1st try holding itself to that standard and see how it goes. there's been a shift in opinion among polish people over the conflict in ukraine. also, according to a new opinion poll by the war, saw enterprise institute thinktank, which concluded citizens are now seeing a little more of russia's point of view. the poll quiz people on 8 issues raised by moscow about the reasons for their military offensive. last year, a 3rd of respondents agreed with at least 4 of the points. now that number has risen to 41 percent. it was found that younger people age between 25 and 30 for rural, so most likely to agree with the statements. oh,

differing altitudes towards the conflict hovel. subbing noted by some western media outlets. there is no evidence that the people and governments of the global south who are suffering most from the economic consequences of the war are turning decisively against prudent in india, supposedly allied to the west. a recent poll found that more respondents blamed either nato or the u. s, than russia for the war in ukraine columnist and commentator george zillow, well, he believes western leaders are winning. everyone run to the ranty russian narrative. the problem is that european leads has been getting themselves more and more entangled in ukraine and failing completely, failing to of shift public opinion to persuade the public that there are some vital european national interests involved in ukraine. and particularly that the

sacrifices that, that demanding from the public is somehow an important vital strategic objective poles. and particularly young polls, according to this pole, are also very skeptical about further involvement in ukraine. i think it's very interesting and, and it's a striking commentary of the, on the failure of europe. political leads to persuade public opinion key and security services have conducted a wave of raids on a number of ukrainian officials on ty coons in the country. it follows several figures in government resigning last week. large scale embezzlement schemes were apparently uncovered in 2 ukrainian energy companies were thrown $1000000000.00 during another raid on the head of kiev tax department. huge sums of cash were followed. he was discovered to be involved in a number of multi $1000000.00 legal enrichment ventures,

in all several ukrainian defense ministry officials are also directly linked to cases worth millions in ukrainian currency. but the us treasury department has said there are no evidence sites that funds from washington have been misused in ukraine indication that us funds have been misused in ukraine. we welcome the ongoing efforts by the ukranian authorities to work with us to ensure appropriate, safe guards are in place so that us assistance reaches those for whom it is intended. just a reminder then of a report from last year at carried out by american c. b s news it find only around 30 percent of the weapons sent by the west to key of actually make it to the front lines with no real information where the rest goes. the investigation suggested about getting the arms to the troops involved, navigating a network of, quote, power lords, oligarchy, on political players. europe will also say some of those weapons have ended up in

the hands of organized crime groups. in the u. journalists, the finder of don bouts inside are kristen neal believes the raids in ukraine are an attempt by key to show its international backers. it can tackle the high levels of corruption. i think there's a lot of pressure from the width on will be measured in. he to clean, at least a little, meet the people who are around him. i mean, it's a radio long time that you know that the feel around corrupted lensky himself. he's corrupt c. e was mentioned independent of papers, and they are a lot of information indicating that you felt between reach during the all the special operation. so i think joe biden has to give some illusion to doing something about this problem because of course,

when you get the information that only 50 percent of the weapons reach the phone, ordinary people can get us. but so it means 70 percent of my taxes are going to the rubbish being to enrich some people in ukraine and it's a big scandal. so i think it's so way for joe biden to distinguish a little be this problem by giving some warranties about that. finally, this news our, the bricks economic block of nations is currently considering membership applications for me, at least 5 countries, including the north african state of our jury, a r, t r. a big correspondence emma kinney. shank talked about the process of expanding the group with russia's foreign minister circle of ralph, who shared his insights on accusations. the u. s. is actively trying to disrupt any enlargement series. now apply to telling the break script. how soon do you think

this could happen and how would the stages of this association change with the entry of such a strong regional player? dumb use news could occur there already several official applications and that number already exceeds the initial number of bricks. members, there are more than 5 of them, including algeria. and the last 5 summits we agreed that we would implement common approaches to such applications. and as a 1st step, we would agree on the criteria, parameters and conditions for joining our group. algeria, of course, in all its qualities, i know respects is among the ladies of the contenders. we must find a framework that firstly will reflect the legitimate interests of these states in continuing to promote together with bricks, the interests of the structure and future cooperation, which will not depend on the interests of one group of countries. one sovereign, as is the case with the united states who grossly abuse the role of the dollar in the international financial system. and the other monopoly positions which have been built for many years under the slogans of so called globalization,

which have now been proved that for the sake of a monetary conjecture in the field of foreign policy in the field of promoting its imperial ambitions, the united states can simply overnight, abandon the principles of free market fair competition. and principles of the presumption of innocence. therefore, bricks reflects a deep tendency to counteract such injustice to build mechanisms that will help get rid of harmful dependence on the mechanisms and tools of those who think primarily about their own benefit at the expense of the interests of others. and i'm convinced that in the next couple of years, we will see concrete results in the expansion of breaks, and the expansion of its partners advancing the goals and objectives set out as i know, the name song, it was a deliverables. lou, that's a different question. the bricks is it brand has already established itself on little struggles. allison 1000 nigeria, his else and not to win the anti russian sanctions, despite western pressure. and now we years the cause in the u. s. to impose

sanctions to guess. as algeria itself, a fresh fruits, cooperation with russia. what's your take and how it might influence the us, you in government and its policies towards russia? will? yes, lucille, still what i've heard that a group of congressmen around $27.00 of them i think have appealed to state secretary, blinking with resentment of algeria not joining sanctions and where the proposal to punish algeria to make it comply with the countering america's adversaries. through sanctions. act that's a mugs game algerians and not the people to be dictated to and expect they will be the day fulfill their orders, which violate their national interests at least snap of a finger from across the ocean. algeria, like most states respects itself, it's history and his interests on which it builds foreign policy. not on the one behind the scene arrangement with those who promise gingerbread. in fact, only trying to infringe the lawful interests of it. so cold partners. and that is where we leave the news, randolph for know about our programs are just about to get going. see what showing where you are today, right ahead. this is our teachers. ah

ah in i'm rick sanchez. and i'm here to play with you. whatever you do, you do not watch my your show.
