or you go ahead, i change and whatever you do, don't watch my show stay main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called direct impact, but again, you probably don't want to watch it because it might just change the waiting thing . with the fact that our western colleagues are so persistently chasing around the world, demanding, the condemnation of russia speaks volumes. if they use the same energy to make ukraine abide by the men's agreements, we wouldn't need a special operation here for a minute or so ago. off mocking the west over its diplomatic games in africa, as if it's a sudan on the last stop if it's regional to a stuff in video. it bearing on line report showing a ukrainian soldier, execute and captured russian p o w. and yet another instance of alleged war crimes committed by key forces also ahead for people denying underground under durable in

syria. because the united states we use to send the basic, the basic off the page that this people need, us sanctions and the law vital assistants to upgrade victims and syria. washington ultimately tried to shift the blame, claiming damascus is responsible for the situation with pushing back on the main street narratives on questioning more from moscow. welcome to your news to talk to you. so okay, left off has slammed the west over its insistence that africa condemns russia. the foreign minister said they could have used that very same energy to prevent the conflict in ukraine. he made his comments on his last stop in sudan as the diplomat wraps up an enormous tour the entire continent with the

fact that our western colleagues are so persistently chasing around the world demanding the condemnation of russia speaks volumes. firstly, if they try this hard, it means they feel they are wrong if they use the same energy to make ukraine abide by the minsk agreements, we wouldn't need a special operation. and we know that ukraine was not going to accept the minsk agreement. but on the contrary, we're preparing for a hybrid war, everything to eliminate a political competitor. the men's agreements were supposed to be the cornerstone of the peace process between the don bass republics and keith. they were broken by russia, germany and france 8 years ago. and it was all seemingly done in good faith. however, in recent months, western leaders revealed the real purpose of uminski course was simply to give ukraine more time to rearm its military. something that was actually admitted by ukraine's previous president petra potter sankoh. so once again, now back to the russian foreign minister, his soj lever off again. our friends in africa, asia,

and latin america understand very well that all these actions are geo political games from us and their allies, to keep a hedge morning in the world. the fact that they go around the world trying to convince, developing countries to condemn russia, means that they do not believe in democracy. cartoon, the last days of russia, foreign minister sergey loves to all of africa. his visit to sedans, capital city, coincides with the trips by envoys from 5 western countries. the us, britain, france, no way and germany decided listed on as at the center of all this attention. both russian sudan consistently come out in the you and in support of initiatives aimed at ensuring a democratic world order based on the principles of multi polarity which are enshrined in the un charter. in addition to political dialogue. in addition to foreign economic coordination, there are many tasks in the field of trade, economic investment, and humanitarian cooperation. we came out and support the efforts being made by the sudanese leadership to stabilize the internal political situation. sergei lover of

came to cartoon to discuss ballots relations, as well as regional issues on the african continent, and the middle east. particular attention was paid to the preparation of a 2nd, russia africa summit to take place in july saint petersburg. hello, during his tour across africa, the russian foreign minister expressed moscow is ready and willing to send to help the west african states facing an extremist insurgency. a rush was offered through african nations commons at a time when the situation is deteriorating in gonna, although the country itself isn't involved in any direct conflict that suffers from an economic crisis as refugees, poor in from neighboring countries like but again, a fossil toko, and benito who are battling she hot as groups. and we spoke to independent journalist, our common, who says donna should cooperate with neighboring countries in order to handle the border crisis. eve, the borders are poorer and do not have the necessary security money. the

more then it becomes an issue over the period all over time, with discussions on how some sort of help will be given to mcgriff with the legal mondays to monday. we've been have the capacity at the country to be able to deal with this. i mean, in terms of military equipment in terms of done in terms of, i mean a human resource that's realistic and we know that these lead off from the other side. and then they enter into the country. a lot of them people who are being sought after they just come in and pull off in the front leave only good. this will be the committed a crime across the border and they use unapproved boots and then it come into the country. then it becomes a problem even close to them and all about in fighting crime, especially cause more to cry and needs to be a separate,

not just on the part of the guardians, but also the neighboring countries as well. now to the consulate in ukraine, where shocking footage has emerged on line, reportedly recorded by ukrainian soldiers showing them executing a captured russian prisoner of war or warning. this is disturbing. utilize the verb with you with i'm sure she she is in this unverified video, ukrainian soldier allegedly shoot the russian service men in the head multiple times. we blurred out some of the images here, but the victim is wearing a white. what's happening? typically, one by russian soldiers of this comes off to numerous other accusations of ukrainian soldiers killing russian p o w. in fact, even the united nations has documented several of these and is called for investigation. while local officials say

a barrage of ukrainian artillery shelling hitting the audience republic in the past 24 hours, killing 2 civilians, wounding 4 others, including children. authorities say the ukrainian forces 5 more than a 100 shells of civilian areas in the region. a number of apartment buildings or shopping center were damaged to all right there. a massive blazer ruptured in the center of the regional capital. meantime, russia as ministry of defendants, as reported that around 75 ukrainian soldiers were killed near the city of dotted within the past. 24 hours, several ukrainian armored vehicles were also destroyed as russian forces have been conducting an offensive in that area. and on the front lines for us, embedded with russian special forces ortiz ecos. donal right now we are just outside the small town that is done is outside of the city of the next. it is a major ukrainian stronghold. and right now we're following in the footsteps of

a russian special forces unit. and basically what they're doing, they're going to be launching a heavy anti tank message, but they won't be targeting any machinery nor tanks. rather they will be working on hitting command centers inside again, a major ukrainian stronghold which will most fell just a couple of weeks ago. with c'mon, they managed to reinforcement and right now the army as a hard time has a hard time getting hold of it. but i'm being told that it's just a matter of time until this small but difficult stronghold force ah, with

ah, this part to watch is the project i'll being carefully guided towards its target. and when it connects doesn't hold back emotions with but i feel if you just let them wash in a gradient. armies operate at a collision cause here keep forces positions have been reduced too small batch of apartment block buildings on a hilltop. it's a dominating a height yet the ukrainians are trying to expand their zone of control. the russians on the other hands for no effort throwing plenty of their resources into

the battle. this infantry tanks, every kind of artillery piece, as combat helicopters, brain fire from above. feeling as it gets little when the enemy is detected and destroyed every day by the forces of our intelligence and dots, hillary is the same. every whap attempts by the ukrainian army to counter attack were repulsed up to a company of soldiers and heavy equipment were destroyed. so special anti tank units don't suffer from a shortage of targets. and as nato's leopards challenges and abrams tanks bound for ukraine get a fresh coat of paint. they wait, wait patiently for the hitler's to get even longer. i'm a gosh done of reposing from the dumbass artsy diplomacy is the only way to end the conflict in ukraine. a military solution is unachievable. that's the message coming from a top chinese and voice speaking to the e. u. well,

quite concerned about the possible escalation. offer this so this, this conflict. and though we don't believe that term only providing a weapons, oh, will actually solve the problem. and we are quite concerned about people talking about winning a complete to victory on the battlefield. we believe that they did that the right place would be at the negotiating table. so what you're hearing there are from the chinese on voice, basically the diplomatic equivalent of our you. okay, bro, this on the way to the european union is obviously concerned about the block getting carried away over ukraine until recently, some european leaders at least paid lip service to the idea of peace and prudence and the conflict ending with negotiations. and now they're like the guy who shows up at the casino says that he's not really into gambling, but okay, sure,

maybe i'll play a few games of slots for a few rounds of poker. but the same guy as leader found swinging naked from the chandelier, after maxing out all his credit cards. that right now is europe. and that's a slippery slope. they just slid right on down when it comes to ukraine. have a lesson rushes defeat has become both a polish and a european reason for existence. returns. ukraine can count on france. it's european port no san its allies to win the war. russia cannot and must not. when combined them together with our partners. we have also provided massive support to ukraine financially, with humanitarian aid, and with weapons, with heavy artillery, with the air dis, hands, and recently also with the delivery of battle tanks. and we will continue to do so as long as it is necessary, as you can hear, there europe is all in on fighting russia right down to the last ukranian. european leaders have literally self radicalized over the course of this conflict. compare

that rhetoric with what french president emanuel michael was saying late last year when insisting on negotiate sions and respect for russia in those talks, as the way to achieve peace. not that he wasn't routinely slammed for it by eastern european countries for even suggesting diplomacy over war as though that's some kind of radical idea. so beijing sees you're up cheering zalinski like he's the star quarterback in some come a football game against russia and basically is reminding them of some serious real world consequences. like where all the weapons going. when all of this is over, we keep hearing cheers of free the leverage. but what happens when the german leopard tanks and the whole weapons do that nato is dropping into ukraine, ends up going home with some locals as pets or ends up being traffic to other aficionados of exotic arms. china's envoy to the united nations brought that issue up, relevant parties should pay great attention and they are to adopt strict control measures,

prevent their proliferation of weapons and ammunition, particularly stop them from falling in the hands of terrorists and armed groups and avoid great hurt and avoid creating a new instability in a great her geographic region. in this regard, the dire consequences of conflicts in afghanistan, iraq, syria, and samaria, served as sobering lessons. not like china's alone in evoking this concern, the head of britons national crime agency said in december that there was a risk of blow back risk combo full. on reality that same month, the president of nigeria said that part of the nato weapons menagerie had already made it down to lake chad basin region, where he said that they were keeping terrorists company, interpol warren, that black market weapons could come out of ukraine last june. but hey, what is imp, interpol? no, right. other than the fact that keith was a, basically

a boom for black market weapons dealing going all the way back to the 900 ninety's, facilitated by rampant government. and it's all like that corruption problem. his anywhere close to resolved. ukraine is still one of the largest markets for arms trafficking in europe with the problem growing even worse in the past 12 months. that's according to the global organized crime index, which is funded by the us state department, the e u. and interval, so really they should know better. meanwhile, all the western casts is just being shoveled into ukraine, despite mounting calls to see some actual receipts from time to time. maybe. but you know, who cares about details like accounting and accountability. shine as basically the adult who just walked into the room and that's likely to go over about as well as you might expect. i was talking with the vice chairman of the shanghai center nelson wong, who believes the current e u policy on arms is only endangering civilians and ukraine. why the european

politicians are doing what they're doing at the moment by sending weapons to ukraine or even given weapons through the sky. you're only going to create more civilian casualties. you're not going to achieve anything that you're playing, you can, because you won't be able to defeat what. but whether these weapons will fall into the right hand, or we don't really know who all the right and our friends in europe. i think people should ask these politicians and the interest groups behind them, what are they doing? are they benefiting anything out of that? they really sure that they can achieve what they claim they can tend to be to the death toll has climbed now to more than 19000 people following the devastating earthquakes that hit turkey and syria. earlier this week,

her tie province in turkey is one of the worst effected areas. rescued rescuers that pulled a 10 year old boy from the ruins, after being trapped for more than 65 hours for local and international emotions. the teams are racing against the clock to find more survivors and the the epicenter of the quake. while the scenes adjust. that adjusted ation. the former high rise apartment blocks reduced to nothing more than piles of concrete and twisted metal. desperate locals have gathered on the streets to collect different forms of humanitarian aid. a russian emergency teams are working in a turkish region of carmano marsh. it's more than 40 doctors out for that providing medical care, elderly people, and children of the 1st in line with themes, treating a vast array of injuries caused in the disaster. or russia is also provided fire fighting across to help battle. blaze is off the quakes. if it's a footage from on board one of the plane naughty correspondent peter scott heard from the local residence and another devastated come. now what you can see behind in me is

a residential building that was once 8 stories high and is now been reduced to rubble. as you can see here, there are people that once lived in our building and they're now waiting for news of their relatives who in many cases are still stuck under the rubble. i want to wait here because my son, his wife and guests, and 6 of my relatives were in the building when the earthquake struck. my grandson herron is 4 years old. he was also in the building. i haven't received any word from the family, and asia isn't alone. as of wednesday evening, the death toll india buckets stood at 144 people with almost 1000 wounded. as the sun begins to fade 3 days after the earthquakes. so does hope the survivors will be rescued from the rubble. that doesn't stop relatives anxiously gathering around destroyed homes desperate for any news of their loved ones. i can't say that i've completely lost hope, but it's been free days now. and his game difficult to remain optimistic that my

oldest sister and had 2 children will be found a life. i would like to send all my blessings, deville's people who lost their lives in this disaster. i would also like to wish that those who were injured will get well soon. understandably, with progress slow going frustration mounts with each passing hour. many of the people i spoke to india back here were angry that more support from the government or the international community hadn't yet reached the city. 3 days after the quakes, white island, we want more support for the rescue teams. we can't go back home because it's not safe, and there is no peace for us there. some waiting here for news about my 6 cousins. in other parts of d a back here. he could almost be forgiven for thinking that life goes on. his normal city may have got off relatively lightly, but thus have little consolation to residence, waiting for news of their relatives who are trapped or those who are forced to sleep on the streets or seek shelter elsewhere. while government engineers go

through the daunting process of showing the thousands of homes here are safe to live in once again. peter scott, the kid, turkey artsy, the primary earthquake in the region of recorded up magnitude 7.8 is basically the most powerful in the region for a 100 years. and while turkey and syria have been the most effective, its tremors were felt as far away as egypt and even the central asian nation of catholic stone. just to the south in syria, the earthquakes left more than a 1000 dead and 300 buildings collapse of the northern city of l. f. o. near the turkish border is one of the area's most effective. residents were forced to flee their homes and gather shelters. meanwhile, western sanctions, particularly from america, have been blocking vital aid from getting into syria even in the wake of all these are the quakes. look at this like tracking radar map here. for example, major airliners in transport planes are just avoiding syrian territory. now the grey's own news host aaron mattie earlier took to twitter condemning washington the

sanctions against syria. he posted a screenshot of a new york times article, claiming it exposes the effect of us restrictions that are hampering aid to the country. off about the new york times changed its story now where it reads that it's the syrian governments tight controls that are to blame. well, let's chris live now to was the mohammed assyrian and basing germany who wanted to send money to help the victims in syria. but as i understand, the donation was rejected by go fund to me just sanctions. i was seem a very welcome to you. thanks for coming on the program. what responsive he received from the donation platform? did they explain to you why they rejected your, your money transfer to the victims in syria and try to connect phone because of the special even people you know, everyone we can help. so i decided to open an account

with me and i get my, my, my, my details and then we have to when we can up and then it because the functions of us we cannot open the account and we can attempt and they delete my account. what, what, what do you make of the of the u. s. insistence to keep the sanctions in place? i mean, do you think that the very least they could be lifted at least temporarily to help the victims? absolutely. as a. now if you, in your report, you say like you said that every week we have no people that i did that under the wrong, they maybe some their life, a baby that are homeless, thousands of homeless people. we have a gas, we don't have, we need to help out with that sanctions from the u. s. country,

we can't do anything. i'm trying to here to help. i'm trying to do with our community to find a way that people say to my family. my cousins, i lost my cousin in the week but we, we, if that answers will stay on we, we cannot, we can't do it alone and we need assistance with the left. well, i'm very sorry that i'm very sorry to hear about your loss and clearly your family affected by these earthquakes. i mean, you know, let's just get to the bottom line here. what see, i mean these earthquakes, a historic, the strongest earthquakes in a 100 years, and that part of the world upwards of 19000 dead and 38 that we know about syria, a smaller number, but still a very significant number. this is absolutely tragic here. how can any country justify sanctions, the block money and aid from going into such a disaster zone?

explain that to me please. and they are telling us that we did that, that our government, them along a if i need to have any money or, or any hope, all the time giving me. but this is absolute. you know, you could talk to people they, they said they sent 2 hundreds of pounds. what we were to see if we were hoping we had everything we, we get that all the stuff for them, but we can't seem to put the weight. i close the company's been afraid to try to raise the voice train me just tell them please talk enough. thanks. seems like killing us, not only with a war with that with them without everything to where the views and you know

it's been sanctions who are getting us not only well meantime meantime are saying we have got comments from the leadership in beijing. we've also got comments from other heads of state and central asia. they are asking america to withdraw the sanctions from syria. but meantime, we've got nothing coming out of heads of state in europe, or even the by the administration right now, except, except the us state department, net price, by the way, saying that the situation right now, the crisis in syria, syria only has itself to blame if you can believe that was c mohammed. it's a great pleasure having you here on the program. essentially, you are blocked by go fund to be as you try to send funding to friends and family affected in syria. we hope that this will be removed to the end of the day, and more people will be able to help those so much in the was the 100. thank you. thank you. well, the russia's foreign ministry says it's just not surprised by the new revelations about the attack on the north stream pipeline says leaders in the u. s. had openly

been threatening. well to get rid of that key pipeline your to europe. we have repeatedly voiced russia's position on the evolvement of the u. s. a nato. nothing that they did not hide this boasting to the whole world to dad, the intention to destroy the civilian infrastructure, through which you are perceived russian energy resources. we also regularly noted the reluctance of denmark, germany, and sweden, to conduct an open investigation and opposition to russia's participation in it. and this, despite the fact that our country has incurred huge costs for those revelations were made by award winning investigative journalist seymour hersh, who said the attack on russia's north stream system was carried out by america with norwegian involvement. though, after months of diligent planning by does decision to sabotage the pipelines came after more than 9 months of highly secret back and forth debate inside

washington's national security community. about how to best achieve that goal. for much of that time, the issue wasn't whether to do the mission with how to get it done with no overt clue as to who was responsible. knee jerk reaction, the u. s. was created an i involvement in the covert of tax on an ostrich pipelines . and we heard back from norway, though no way the officials are telling r t the allegations are quote nonsense though and as a whistleblower edward snowden. well, he's not entirely convinced, he said, is not the 1st time washington denies allegations are referencing his own experience. when evidence of the u. s. government, spying on its own citizens, was simply rejected by top intelligence officials when they were testifying before congress. can you think of any examples from history over secret operation that the white house was responsible for, but strongly denied. besides, you know, that little mess, surveillance, kerfuffle? well, we spoke with a pulitzer prize winning a and former foreign correspondent, the new york times, who says us denials of the pipeline attack have 0 credibility. that is

something that we've seen in the past. not only with seymour hersh, his reporting, but other investigative look at looks at our investigation into activities that the government wants to keep the secret. i think that's the standard response. i didn't surprise any of us and i think they had to respond quickly because they couldn't let just why out there was some kind of a without a denial. but not denial again, doesn't mean much. we look at how these things play out. eventually more information comes out that supports this initial reporting until it becomes very hard for them to deny. that's usually what happens. so when you put all the different pieces of the puzzle together, you get a very clear pitcher. want to know more. here's marina, cause it's 2021. the u. s. a needs are already irritated by the north stream,

one gas pipeline because they see it as a threat to western dominance. and now north, soon too was nearing completion, which would double the amount of cheap russian gas flow into germany. something had to be done. and this is how it went down according to a source with direct knowledge of the operational planning. so joe biden authorized as his national security advisor to create a group. so come up with a plan to get rid of the pipelines. by the end of the year, jake sullivan convenes a meeting of a new task force, men and women from the joint chiefs of staff, the cia and the state and treasury departments. they hold several top secret meetings in the building right next to the white house and during their brainstorming sessions. the navy, for example, proposal using a newly commissioned submarine, sir sold to the pipeline directly. the air force discusses dropping bombs that

could be set off remotely. and the cia just argued that whatever was done had to be done covertly. the cia director at the time william burns authorizes an agency working group. so craft a plan for a covert operation that would use deep sea divers to trigger an explosion along the pipeline. early 2020 to the c, a working group reports back to sullivan's inter agency group. we have a way to blow up a pipelines. meanwhile, a few slip ups with regard to nordstrom too. we continue to have a very strong and clear conversations with our german allies, and i want to be clear with you today. if russia engage ukraine, one way or another nord stream to will not move forward. if russia and rage at meas tanks with troops crossing the.
