11:02 am
founder and fighters about some of the latest developments that it was arguably the 1st big media event that was organized by the otherwise very secretive wagner group . and but this time, well, a select pool of journalists, we were invited to a location and the prime attraction. there were the debris of a russian bama jet or rather the jet. that was part of wagner's very own air force . and basically they were brought there because they were a symbol to the self sacrifice of 2 pilots. they were hit during the battle for the city of our jobs. and when they realized that there was no way that they could make it out alive, they directed their burning machine towards the positions towards a ukrainian military column. now the head and chieftain of the wagner group, you've gained proportion. another very secretive figure. he himself, he turned out in person to tell the story of his 2 fallen heroes. we're running for
11:03 am
a quarter to warn her. this is flight 48. the guys have heroically fulfilled their task and having crash the plane at the enemy's territory ramming their military convoys was now time to commemorate update though. so facets of buffalo as for buffalo to one wise advice long, it's needed to paralyze the ukrainian arno. what, and it's already paralyzed. you know, the enemy is deploying reserved troops, but we're advancing in different directions every day in somewhere it's 50 meters in and somewhere it's a 100. he said we're fighting for each house for each square meter rocker. there's a fortified area in every yard. we'll go with your korea, brian. but well, that was just the beginning of the program than a wagner fighter entered the room. the fighter that we did see before in the videos put out by the ukranian propaganda videos claiming and showing a gruesome execution, showing him being bludgeoned to death. and there he was standing there in the flesh and telling his story and basically dispelling this myth from his very own words,
11:04 am
we learned that there was nothing but in it, but a shining example of ukrainian fake news and well propaganda flew when i was captured, they beat me, i was tortured and pressed into saying what they wanted me to say. i got many threats that they threatened to kill me and dismember my body. i care of the footage on line for my family to see with the loo. oh yes, sure. now then we did have enough time to well rub shoulders with your guinea per gordon himself. he did shed some light on to how the advance the his advance, his company's advance on the city of art chomsky is faring. it is very, very, very, very difficult way, but still successfully. he revealed that the ukrainian command, they amassed a group, a garrison of 425-0000 soldiers, all tasked with one mission to hold the city of thomas for as long as they can. we
11:05 am
also got to talk to decorated wagner officers who also talked about their time on the ground. we talked to the commander of artillery and he, with a smile on his face, hinted that well, having foods in other parts of the world as part of the wagner group that he and his men have experienced countering nato, made artillery, also more serious and in larger calibus than that ukraine has in its disposal. so overrule a very interesting event that shed some light on to how the mysterious wagner company, mysterious, and defective, i should say, operates on the front in the dumbass. ah, the moving on. now the bbc is using its documentary about prime minister now render mosey modi as a pretext to pass off its financial mishandling. was what the supposed person of india's ruling b j. p party claimed in an exclusive interview with arts,
11:06 am
he will as get more details on this from our india correspondence. runjun sharma, green and see it runjun. and what more can you tell us about what this official has told us about the, the ongoing tax probe into the bbc over there. so essentially shows up when a while lot has to go. rickly denied that there is any link between the b b. c documentary or another 2002 gives you all the riots that in fact spoke about prime minister will be role in the community itself. back then, of course, he was the chief minister of good dropped off at that documentary. and currently the surveys that are being carried out in b, b c. offices both in new delhi as well as a mon, by what they're saying is that this is government, nor to the acting out who then as it is being pointed out, several publications, even the opposition in their own expected lines, really doing that but, but,
11:07 am
but essentially what, what he's saying is that the government have to do that, even if it just done it way back. you know, they didn't have to wait for all these weeks really. also what they're trying to see is the b, b, c. avoid being employs and sean stacks by all frauding of them, i'll be their employees as free lancers, for example. and b, b, c has been a long time offender. and every time a sylvie is conducted by the docs, boston to just carried out only when there are repeated violations. so the question essentially being all is why did b b c nor respond to all the notices that were being sent to them? i remember at this stage, the tax, the boss from the professionals are calling it us. so are we not to read or surge? also, yesterday, around 11 am local time. the sylvia started in the offices,
11:08 am
they are still in going on is going to be around 40 hours will full the dock sufficient seed in the b b. c. office who walks the night. there are several mobile phones to develop laptops of employees that have been seized. what they're looking to do essentially is tax and ways you also financial manipulations that we are talking about. yeah. but they're in my quantization, which is all for now while on the national school for some of the park, the age of the body. he's tactical guy categorically denied any link between the b b c documentary. and these surveys that are being carried out was essentially the thing is that nobody know, broadcast start is evolve the law of the land that you've a foreign company is working in india out of the have to comply. * by the rules, by the tax rules, and if you're not doing that and that india has the right to conduct. so these are
11:09 am
the sofa raids as they're being called on the company. but we'll have to wait and see what the outcome of those surveys is. as art sees india correspondence wondering sharma, thanks for walking through that vision has expressed the support of iran in protecting the sovereignty and resisting unilateralism and bullying. thus, as the 2nd day of the reading, president's visit continues. however, the us house cold on china to follow washington's lead when dealing with to run we've engaged with the p r c and other global stakeholders on to encourage in this case the p r c, to take steps to counter a run policies that stabilize the region and threaten our partners and our allies, a runs nuclear program, it's ballistic missile program. it's other malign activities and influence are profoundly destabilizing in the region. that is, of concern not only to us,
11:10 am
it should also be of concern to our c. china would never do something by putting pressure on one country with sacrifices the benefits of the local people. president c g p said that china support. iran is safeguarding and sovereignty independence, territorial integrity, and national dick d. d, that's a basement basement of the relationship. diplomatic relationship is also a move that protects the true multilateralism and safeguards the common interest of the both developing countries. so being the signal is quite clear that the cooperation between the 2 countries does not target any 3rd party trying to support the run is resisting unilateralism and bullying as you mention, and poses external forces interfering in international affairs and undermining security and stability. i think it's just the mentality of the us mentality of getting alliance, which china never did the kind of
11:11 am
a small group alliance, of course suspension or something. i really not the strategy of resolving any dispute or confrontation, so dialogue in negotiation. again, it's the thing that resolve any dispute. and in africa, a summary of briggs, a group of 5 emerging economies, will focus on reconstructing global politics, economics, and financial architecture. but that's according to the senior south african official who's hosting this year's meeting. one of the issues which will be discussed in bricks is how to restructure global political, economic, and financial architecture, so that it becomes more balanced. representative, inclusive, and equitable rich presents a very, very interesting opportunity. especially for south africa, still seen as one of the leaders on the continent. south africa is the only african state that has
11:12 am
a seat in the g 20 and in the briggs club as well. and they intend to use their chairmanship this year to further the brakes to further the africa agenda within bricks to identify opportunities where cooperation can be, can be a 1st that even more to represent the views of the developing world as it were. and let's not forget what briggs on its own, represent them in the 5 member countries course issue some 40 percent of global population and account for a quarter of if g d p. and that's a lot of night. and this comes, of course, a mit a missed a changing of, of global order and geopolitical landscape as it were. the 5 member countries have been didn't talks about developing their own financial infrastructure, including a join to payment system. and we've seen some of the,
11:13 am
some of the member states within the brakes actually giving up the dollar in favor of their own local currency in order to reduce this dependency on the dollar and on the euro. and this will smoothly that transition towards their own joint payment system, which will facilitate their cooperation even more. but we're talking about breaks. that's also attracted attention from the greater global south. as it were, we heard president obama pasa, coming back from saudi arabia, telling the nation and the world at large, that saudi arabia is very much interested in joining the club. iran also keen to join and we understand that china is very much in favor of having an, as in tina come to the for and let's not forget, of course, a long time ally and friend of russia, algeria, which would, you know, it's,
11:14 am
it's the biggest country by land mass on the continent, and it's also keen to drain the members themselves, have been talking about a multi polar world and vet has really. busy take to the, the census above in the western world, as they go scouring all throughout the continent, trying to dissuade african leaders and african countries to, to forming a stronger lives with china or russia. it's, it's quite interesting, the searing how long america has not been invested on the continent, then they're seen for what they are now. they're seen as people who are coming only because they're worried about having the african vote at international for i like the united nations and getting one up on china and russia being there. they're geostrategic enemies as it were. but this multi polar world is really scaring the the, the, the west then nations as it were wireless and that the munich report details how
11:15 am
african countries this content with the west, as it were, does not necessarily translate into favoring a greater a great and more powerful rush hour china. i see. well, that's pretty much in the air, considering the length that south africa is going to, to make sure that not only is china and russia welcome, but that be truly taken advantage of. and there's a similar uses in terms of development for all countries, including the bricks. members, buckingham palace has removed the coin, no diamond from the queen. mary's crown in advance of queen camilla's coronation taken from india during colonial times, is still known whether the diamond will be returned to its home country. the 105 cards coroner is one of the largest diamonds in the world. it was taken by the east india company during the british colonial era,
11:16 am
becoming an issue of contention between london and new delhi earlier ended officials condemned the british crowns funds to utilize the diamond in its upcoming coronation. the coronation of camilla in the use of the crown jewel co i nor brings back painful memories of the colonial past peace indications like queen elizabeth the seconds death, the coronation of the new queen camilla and the use of the co i. nor does transport a few indians back to the days of the british empire in india. other co, no diamond is one of the most well known treasures taken by the british crowd. many of the valuables are also on display in british museums. madame the greatest of africa, the world's largest diamond, which weighs in its around $530.00 curious as well as egypt rosetta stone, will as cost live now to compel kumar indian historian and professor capella. thanks very much for joining us this evening. now i'd say kids, you believe that this was the right decision by buckingham palace to not use this
11:17 am
diamond in the crown. during the coronation. i think the hind is, you would be the diamond back to india because it belongs to india. and the conditions under which it was taylor from india. there was a minor in napkins in punjab. the leasing was forced to part with it and number off shall show that he lived there. it was a give to you and do the queen we and it was a lot, you know, and on the, for circumstances it was taken away from him. so i, but it is, it will be the issue we did a has been demanding for a long and now from memory time, you know, oh, i see the reason. yeah. of course you should come back to india. now india obviously claims ownership over this diamond, but so does the afghanistan pakistan and a run given this disputed ownership of the diamond?
11:18 am
how likely do you think it is that britain would send it to india? and is there any solution to solving this, this crisis of ownership? is he, i don't dig even their dreams in simple b dot. it is well known that it belong to india. it belong to the elite and buys right from the when i go down south and story goes from out of the dimes than even doing that. so don't really do them a little tv and it was in india. it was only didn't do it on my live shot again by deceit and loot. ramirez went to her that is done and was brought back from. i'm going to stop by again and again. do you think the sick and from this scene it was taken by deceit by the belief. this is no history, no one is disputing that history. so why the cri margarite has dialed bugs duncan and we generally re, you know, i can understand that for me he get leave,
11:19 am
they can do anything, you know, basically, and the british are not to korea disputes so that they hadn't heard easy time going with the lot in all of these things, this is not that i know many other things also. you know that out for you only just right drill. if you look at the amount of precious you from india, other drills, ornaments of the briefly states had dks sculptures, et cetera. one of the done to indiana and ikea, they dream that there is that for the do actually i'll pick you up on that point. very shortly, just just want a quick question before that, that in the house i believe in a petition by people in india to return the diamond, but it was rejected by britain. what was the feeling among the people in india regarding this and his anyway, effect said practically relations between the 2 countries. you see,
11:20 am
i don't you wonder whether upon so 1st things reg, um, internally in the eyes, never forgotten. it's exploitation. it's lute the mexicans, get it out in india, and the kind of operation done in india by the british. you always remember that. and so the reaction is when the symbol that they looked at, they still felt flattish on that lute, to live in their b. lloyd, i'm exhausted them. what is it in small quantities to want to buy it is gone. but still they think that they are in, by the limit of who's finalizing the delay. and if they do that, they, you know, i was joking the other day that they used to collect that in should system very much in cities. they used to call me at all. and today they don't guarantee the actual already been a little country, but they have to adopt her. are going to privately stir a legion with the name of the she that always say,
11:21 am
what are the now there is nothing left history will be poverty. but what i think again, i think that you mentioned this before, the she the, the coin. no, isn't the, the only disputed a possession, sitting in a british museum. and there are many other similar artifacts that for historical reasons have ended up in countries where they don't originate from. now, do you mostly, how do you deal with a situation like this? should every country be required to return these artifacts? should everything being judged on an individual basis when you draw the line when it comes to something like this? if you had the last gorman regime in india on this present moment, are there been p r? do you think to just come back to india? but you can only the sculptures which had been stolen over from the museums, all which had been smuggled out. and all these things, quite a few such really precious things are come back to india. and i don't believe the
11:22 am
generosity or any of the things of the village that there will be done anything they will not. on the contrary, if they can do allow something they will try to look for. well that it doesn't do as quite a statement to finish the interview and build coma engine, historian, professor, thank you very much for sharing your thoughts today on that. on that news. thank you very much. thank you. good. like to russia? ah, australian minifie whistleblower david mcbride talks about his prosecution. and the latest episode of ortiz, the whistle blowers, the former british army officer, found himself in the process of investigators. that's after he disposed documents on a legit australian war crimes. in fact, i've kind of done quite clearly, i became the problem and that is one of the things i guess it was the last

. 2 the difficulty that national security whistleblowers face is not unique to the united states. other countries around the world treat their national security whistle blowers harshly, especially when those whistle blowers reveal evidence of war crimes. one of the best and most recent examples is austria where david mcbride, a former australian army attorney, is facing criminal charges because of his revelations that australian soldiers committed war crimes and crimes against humanity in afghanistan. mcbride, a decorated combat veteran, now faces the prospect of spending much of the rest of his life in prison. i'm john carry aku and you're watching the whistleblowers. ah. 2 2 david mcbride is one of those rare whistleblowers who did exactly what he was
