4:06 pm
military capabilities to respond to western on threats from ukraine. the co director of the international action center, sarah flanders, say the usaa is intentionally provoking russia and prolonging the conflict by any means. us isn't ignoring the warnings they are deliberately, deliberately provoking further and further, or they know the consequences of this. and they're more than willing to push ahead . there's an enormous number of weapons and us, you know, inventory to big lots of choices. but it's clear that each choice is meant to expand the war to do more damage. not in any way to reach a resolution. it will also mean on, on russia's part that they will have to go further into ukraine in order to secure their borders. the russia lashes borders. so it's an expansion of the war. it's
4:07 pm
very dangerous. there's no reason for it. it's more money, but higher grade of weapons that actually have doubled the range. meanwhile, the european union is also intensifying its involvement in ukraine with the commission president praising care of what she believes to be an effective response to long time corruption challenges. i'm comforted to see that your anti corruption bugs are on alert and effective in detecting corruption cases. i also commend you on reacting so rapidly at the political level to make sure that the fight against corruption is delivering tangible results. and as is further stepped up. this reaction followed a series of unexpected anti corruption, detentions, and res, which have intensified across ukraine in recent weeks. camps for receipts of these
4:08 pm
huge amounts of shady cache at several government agencies, as well as from the private homes of some civil servants have been accused of taking bribes. one case apparently involved the countries, the p. t. defense minister his phone reported they stored $1000000.00 worth in ukrainian cash. however, some contradicting me the report suggests that incidents actually took place law fear me most, some high profile ukrainian officials have in fact been dismissed in recent days amid the anti corruption crackdown according to research from transparency international law. c, a ukraine came in at number 116 on a list of 180 countries in the public sector, corruption index where the least come up. nation the right at the top. i can neighbors on a low rating include countries like zambia, the philippines would be closest to you, nation hungary, being positions high up on the list. the anti corruption measures will all stay the

head of a summit between e u officials and ukraine's president in kev. however, ukraine copes of a false track, accession to the union have been dashed as a commission say there's still plenty of work to be done. grant is at an early stage of preparation for implementing the equity and applying european financial control standards, full alignment with the e u act. we will require reform of the accountant chamber of ukraine in order to make its independence explicit in the constitution, broaden its mandate and apply international standards in its audit procedures. overall, internal audit is not yet well stablished in ukraine. well, you know what, this whole thing was. well, 1st let's talk about what it wasn't. it wasn't a summit in the history marking since it wasn't like ragging gorbachev in reykjavik or in geneva, or the vienna summit between khrushchev and jeff kay. this whole event will be forgotten by sometime next week because was just brussels on tour, like when a broadway production leads new york and takes the act on the road. same lines,
4:10 pm
same roles. and this production even had a costume director, apparently since a memo, reportedly went out ahead of time specifying a dress code for the trip for the delegates, telling the brussels bureaucrat to wear quote, usual business attire. and to avoid quote green khaki or to bright color. so that leaves out things like wrapping themselves in the ukranian flag, which is bright yellow and bright blue or dressing in anything resembling army fatigues. presumably substract as were necessary after french president emanuel macklin was photographed walking around the eighty's a palace last year in a zalinski style hoodie and a 5 o'clock shadow looking like he was there to paint the walls instead of running the french republic. so leading this traveling circus was ring leader and european commission present. ursula vander line. he sounded like she just put all the usual talking points into a box, and then drew them out randomly to determine which order they'd be in her speech.
4:11 pm
this time to discuss also at this summit, how to make russia pay for the brutal destruction it is causing russia society and economy is how price because of the sanctions that will post the 10s packages on its way. how many times have we heard that line about russia paying a high price for sanctions? the price is apparently so high. * and the sanctions so effective that the e you feels need to go rummaging around in the sofa cushions to see if there are any more crumbs left to sanction. in this 10th round, we're talking about now, you know, was, are buying or van lines trying to sell the western press and western analysts for one. cnbc for example, concludes that western sanctions on russian crude have, quote, failed completely. an analyst told the network that the crude price cap was quote, pretty inconsequential, and another expert described it as quote, invented by bureaucrats with finance degrees. and that none of the really
4:12 pm
understand oil markets. and just a few days ago, the international monetary fund predicted economic growth for russia of 0.3 percent . as a result of moscow refocusing trade away from the west and towards other countries . meanwhile, it seems like the e u is sobering up on their talk when it comes to the timeline and prospects for ukrainian integration into the block. here is european council president shot me shed. the reason for the 2 of you for your payment, which form is i did the full lisa a process with fusion. i don't remember. cisco you renewed baja me hall also said ukraine is the e u. the e u is ukraine. nice word salad, which doesn't seem to mean much. wenzel in skis appetite is for nothing less than the meat and potatoes of e u integration. he went to state secretary antony blink and has cancelled his
4:13 pm
upcoming trip to china about software, huge chinese balloon, which beijing called a weather surveillance and craft was 1st spotted floating near the aleutian islands and then again seen hovering near nucleus sites in the us state of montana, the american state department has referred to the incident as a violation of its sovereignty. we have noted the people's republic of china statement of regret, but the presence of this balloon in our air space is a clear violation of our sovereignty as well as international law and isn't acceptable that this has occurred on the u. s. insists the aircraft is a surveillance balloon, despite china saying it's a weather device, which straight off course, baiting out that they regret the unintended entry up at sackcloth into american space. the airship is from china. it is a civilian airship used for research, mainly meteorological purposes, affected by the western winds, and with limited self steering capability, the airship deviated far from its planned course. the chinese side regrets the
4:14 pm
unintended entry of the airship into us airspace. quits pilot, the pentagon said the chinese balloon poses completely no threats to american locals. the balloon continues to move eastward and is currently over the center of the continental united states. again, we currently assessed that the balloon does not present a military or physical threat to people on the ground. at this time. yes, media outlets were initially hysteric alive, our foreign balloon flying over the country. china is responding to the discovery. i was suspected chinese spies balloon flying over the u. s. as we speak, the china is china's foreign ministry is now saying that the balloon did come from china, but that it's a civilian, a balloon official say they have been tracking it for days. and there will be serious political and diplomatic consequences. the biden administration pulling the plug on secretary of state lincoln's plan trip to china. traffic near the site in
4:15 pm
billings, montana was halted earlier today. the military considered shooting at dallas, the state of montana, but was concerned that falling debris could hit someone with some u. s. officials went a step further and urged the military to shoot down the chinese balloon despite a posing no real threat. bring the balloon down. now, when the exploits tech package, which could be an intelligence bonanza, why didn't should shoot down the chinese spy balloon immediately? china is our most significant threat in the world right now, and we need to handle them like the threat that they are. are legal, are media analysts line or say that if the balloon came from a different country, the amount of media attention given to the incident would have been much less. i must spend some time over the euphemistic weather balloon. it's a bologna you should, que nina 99 looped balloon. it's an airship. it's no big deal. it just
4:16 pm
got loose. what are you going to do? a force mirage, or they're actually saying, oh my sorry about that. we lost control. you know how these balloons are now, what you just saw right now, which was the most fascinating american mainstream corporate media, actually reacting in a way that is roughly commensurate with the situation that is going on. normally, it's, what are you going to do? and i must say something, because i am a cultural scholar when it comes to balloons, that word trigger something. whenever we see somebody fly across the sky at hypersonic rates and make right terms, we don't call it a u. f o. we call it a weather balloon. these weather balloons are all over the place. are swamp gas. now, here is the question. does anybody understand what this means? when you have a balloon fly over a sovereign country?
4:17 pm
let me tell you the will use of the word balloon is strategic, is that can you imagine being attacked by a balloon? may i also ask the question if and joe, the china, we replaced the country. when another name, do you think the reaction might be a little different? it's incredible. the nonchalance russia banks india's bid to become a permanent member of the un security council. this was emphasized by moscow's envoy to new delhi while addressing the indian council of well defense, rasa support singers commitment to become at the permanent amber the you asked, the crew to council will see the current engine presidency and the g 20. and in virtual high corporation organization as an opportunity to efficiently promote the agenda of these crucial associations. we appreciate the idea of the consensus based
4:18 pm
response to the challenges with regard to emergent energy and food crisis as all through sustainable development needs. especially in the global south the un security council was founded in 1945 and established 5 permanent members at china, france, russia, the u. k. anti wes, as well as 10 non permanent members which are reelected every 2 years in a speech at the un india noted the foundations of the u. n. s. c. are outdated and widely perceived as deeply unfair. we spoke to foreign affairs expert, dr. swati. wow. who believes india is fully eligible to be a permanent member? i think in just a very credible who can reinstate faith in these though, you know, google institutions because india has been doing such still work when it comes to how it's so staring the policies, you know, i make the g 20 right now. beach and g 20 as well as the operation organization. so
4:19 pm
that one's into is a correct candidate. that's one. the 2nd thing is that, let's also understand that united nations security council is not reflective of the current global auto because united nations security council in many ways is still reflective of the world that was there after the 2nd world war. so it is an institution which is kind of frozen in time. ok, i think that's a community council unless i'm listen, i'm to let reforms, it will really lose it. so you know, i would say it's rational and it would become a little bit. it will be marked by embassies again and again. so i really feel it, and it really does need to change because it's not able to solve the score duty of maintaining because got it in the world. and american research has been ridiculed on social media. that's off the she trying to blame last year's freedom convoy protests in canada and none of them russia i published a 7000 word analysis in the journal of intelligence,
4:20 pm
conflict and warfare to day documenting evidence of russian influence activities targeting the 2022 canadian freedom convoy the estate funded media proxy sources and telegram groups. if i understand your thesis correctly, state media coverage equals state involvement. by that measure, the bbc world service has a lot to answer for seems a bit of a stretch, a read your analysis. it said that this is passed off as an academic paper 0 proof just basically that various russian entities provided media coverage. well, once again, we have the amazing carolyn or wayne out coming forward in this time. she's saying that the trucker convoy, canada was somehow akin spirit seen by russia. now, one of her sources, she cited none other than the rest state department and their global strategic engagement center. basically, u. s. government and intelligence officials saying something there who must be true if they say and of course. and it goes further than that because many of want it to
4:21 pm
the very contradictory nature of this report at one point in the report, she says very clearly that media calgary is not prove of state involvement. but then later in the report, she seems to be making that very argument. here's what was sat. it is unlikely that this coverage had a meaningful, direct impact on the convoy movement. but rather, may have influence supporters and participants through more subtle and direct pathways, including through social media platforms like telegram, now carolyn or wayne has long been a source of amusement. many will recall back in 2019, when she announced that she was planning to do an investigation into us congress and healthy gabber allegations that congresswoman tulsa gabbert was a stooge of the kremlin. now her sources turns out were the hamilton, $68.00 folks the the alliance for securing democracy outlet that we just found out
4:22 pm
from the twitter files had no credibility whatsoever was claiming all kinds of social media accounts were russian boss controls. when they were not that at all, that was their source and she was raising money for a trip to hawaii to investigate kelsey gabbert, she said we are crowdfunding a project to investigate tool. see, we'll have more details in the coming days. but to see as a noxious politician who presents a serious threat of dividing the left, which is exactly why russia likes her. and she likes our side. but many pointed out that it looked like she was almost raising money for a little bit of a luxury vacation, carolyn, or when i was working with a long standing pattern of those being russian conspiracies and lots everywhere in the united states. very little evidence presented inaccurate statements, but later debug sources that are later proven to be not credible. however, no retraction. afterward, canadian lawyer and legal commentator david re have phase north american media
4:23 pm
shouldn't be lecturing us about fat and unbiased comfort. enjoy the freedom convoy . if that's the argument that be russian interference comes from r t or russian media covering the protest. it's a laughable premise, but let's even operate on that premise. that's interference. you know, what else is interference? government subsidized canadian media, not covering the protests or when they do cover the protests to cover it with slanderous demonstrable lives. cbc can, the broadcasting corporations, i to canada, they are, they operate on federal funding to the tune of $1200000000.00 a year. does anyone think that they're going to bite the hand that literally subsidizes them? no. so the cdc, in its early days of coverage falsely and also maliciously depicted that protests as racist massage. and you know, they conveniently had that camera men, right. where they had that one flag of the swastika, and that one flag of the confederate flag that
4:24 pm
a magically appeared on day one and never reappeared to protect their employer. you get the rest of canadian media. print media in canada, which now survives or survived off a $600000000.00 bill out in 2018 and just intruder flailing dying entities. are they going to report in a way that makes true to look like a b, dest thought that he is? heck no, and then you got digital media surviving off cove. it adds, government adds it's indirect subsidies. and so you have what is effectively a captured canadian media not reporting what their employer doesn't want them to report and reporting what their employer wants to report. and then turning round and seeing someone who covers this authentically and honestly is interference. i british intelligence project allegedly targeted palestinians utilizing a contract. so previously accused of supporting al qaeda in syria. as according to lease documents published by the electronic intifada,
4:25 pm
news outlets. our approach will use a mixture of offline and online primary research and seek to distinguish between whether the palestinian issue is in that miss vibrick issue or a key inflection point on the path to radicalization. using social listening technology, the team will examine the relevance of the israel palestine conflict. these findings will be integrated, establishing a rough estimation of palestinian issues, broader salience in the context of in region radicalization. the revelations claim, the intelligence contract is operated directly out of the you case, jerusalem consulate and represent the same group which inadvertently provided funding to al qaeda. back in 2017, the intelligence agents were sent to several refugee camps in jordan lebanon on the west bank to interview palestinians under the pretext of academic research, when in fact, they were there to monitor critics of western and israeli foreign policy.
4:26 pm
well, we spoke with one of the investigative journalists who broke the story assa winstanley, who told us how the u. k. contractor had funded terrorist seeming to impose salary a law. scandalous rarely that the british government is still using this organization essentially to combat al qaeda when it has this proven track record of supporting al qaeda. now of course they say that it was done inadvertently, but there denials at the time were very incongruous. i think they were very in my view, very unbelievable. because at 1st they still said all this is completely untrue. but then, you know, under question they said, well, you know, some of it did happen, but it was by accident. so why is the questions have to be asked now, why is the british government still using this contract? it doesn't make any sense if their actual aim is combat. alco. 20 percent of the budget was going to have to pay to actually protection money
4:27 pm
to these affiliated groups to them, to, to, to give them the security that they didn't have themselves. so what that meant in practice was that british government money was going to fund alcorda. you know, this was only one instance of that. one example of that happening the so called free 7 police. and you know, the b c even came with an instance whereby they showing these the so called free syrian police were involved in al qaeda, supporting outside the courts, quote unquote civil courts, courts where they're imposing their theocratic penalties on the population in the areas that they were occupying where they are beating the syrian government for a time during the war in the country. and that involved in one case, the fake stoning to death of a woman and the free syrian please. we're closing the roads in order to enable this
4:28 pm
to happen in order to find a relevant role for itself within the old bit of american imperialism. the british government and the british deep state has defined services there performs of the empire. and one of the things it does is, is essentially subs version in this kind of way is and these kind of intelligence operations. and they kind of trying to promote themselves as big, uniquely, able to do these things overseas. and of course, the reality is that the american empire has lots of such crime states as well. thanks to double the amount of money ducts from palestinian tax revenues in order to compensate his railey victims of terror attacks. that is by the fact that last year, the israeli army killed over $200.00 palestinians, which is 10 times more than the number of israelis who were killed on their $30000000.00 will be deducted from the palestinian tax administration, which makes it more difficult to pay salaries and provide welfare for families,
4:29 pm
they will thorough as he has described this as an unacceptable move which will aggravate the economic situation. human rights watch says the israeli measure amounts to collective punishment, which is a war crime and international law. courts around the world have treated collective punishment as a war crime. however, israel supreme court has consistently rejected the claim that the israeli governments practice of punitive home demolitions in occupied palestinian territory amounts to collective punishment. a palestinian activist and politician toners. the double tax will hit people, hans, as the money is desperately needed for humanitarian and infrastructure. projects is collecting taxes listing as i'm paying the taxes, and now they deduct it and use it for their own purposes. this is, i'm a nation of the same time buyers, but the,
4:30 pm
if you combine it with what's happening and also in terms of how's the money in terms of killing him and in terms of settlement expansion, we are talking about a wide range of crimes and to sustain and why do the system and the mission and religion, which has been on top of your vision and more than history. so this will affect people's lives, of course, because the money that is taken away that will not be used for hospitals will not be able to sell. dr. messes and teachers will not, it will not be in school. so this is another way or another. is there any additional for the latest on thanks on all of our new stories, camping on our website, doc.
