12:18 pm

12:19 pm
has forced us to develop new tactics for conducting artillery combat operations in for them. no one here showed any disrespect or disregard to the foe. skill yet no one doubts. wagner will come out victorious. i'm again done of reporting from the dorm bus r t so great has responded to accusations made by the mold, open presidents that serbian citizens were involved in an alleged military plot to overthrow his government. so great has called the proof weed him on the demo job and side immediately provide all the information available to them because we have not yet received any clarification. serbian foreign minister also added that such false claims spoil serbia's reputation on the participation of citizens and armed conflicts abroad implies criminal liability. the presidents of mal davis on
12:20 pm
monday, announced she has received information from ukrainian intelligence officials that russia was preparing for military actions to destabilize the country, utilizing saboteurs from serbia, montenegro, russia, and bella race montenegrin side, also sent a request for clarification, but it said it hasn't received a response, yet russia's foreign ministry has rejected the accusations slamming of the unless an attempt to raise tensions between moscow and kiss it now and draw moldova into a confrontation with russia to discuss the issue that's close 5 to even guy. it's not professor at the institute of european studies in belgrade many thanks for joining us on the program this evening. so what's your take on these accusations made by david's leader? what's behind them? do you think? oh, i really, i'm not sure how to comment this. this is probably the korea fall flag operation. i've never seen them out of the blue accused of being involved
12:21 pm
in, in some kind of blog. but i must say that i see natal signature behind this. why? because the similar, similar claims were made it back in 2016 by a month, an aggregate president kind of which was a classical example of voters depression. what he did was on the day of the election and he came out with the claims i was serbia, and of course russia is trying to stage a coup that died montenegro and the rest of the bunch of people who some of them were going through the monastery, some of them were random and at the end of the day there was a, a court, a case which went nowhere. and even the western brass, namely, british independence ridiculed in the saying that there was no case. but however,
12:22 pm
there was a concrete let the result of this action, which was the very next year in 2017 montenegro, join nato. and i think that there is a push to suppress any kind of this month. phones within the mold on society to really threaten to people who are against the, let's say nato's pro war rhetoric, which is quite contagious. it seems that many of eastern european, a countries leaderships are in this pro war party, very much involved in those killers. these in ukraine, so i see this as part of this broader picture. this is say, come back to mo david, so says han and man, the and president said she received information from the ukranian intelligent services such as how credible all day. thank. i mean there are party in the. busy
12:23 pm
war and we've seen so many times on quote, for the ability of the ukrainian side, especially when it comes to security matters. i'm sorry. so i really don't think that this is the evidence that the serbian side wanted our, our ministry of foreign affairs asked ok, give us the data where, where to fax, how come did you come out with this mold claims and the only a president? well, i had to offer was the claims on the ukrainian side, which really is not it's not only is not credible, it's, it's really discrediting the side that is making sort of all claims. and most i've been making headlines, lightning fast closing and then reopening it says space. and then with some wild
12:24 pm
accusations, not just a day is parliament is approved a pro western prime minister. may that be more going on that than meets the eye? yeah, i mean, the problem here is that the law society is divided politically at this hour. that is now being held by the bro, i plan to say or bro, needle, political forces is not expanding on, on the weak legs. and that is why, of course, this constant fear mongering mongering campaign must be done in order to discipline the other side of the society. i think that is the main point here. and of course, if necessary, made to one that then even to get well, no one's more involved in the war efforts. stephen guy, a professor at the institute of european studies and by many thanks for your time, really appreciate your help me and thank you for joining us. hey,
12:25 pm
on anti international, this time will be back the top of the i with as for silver, so stored to live in them. thank you very much for sitting down with us. let's start with general questions. so russia is returning to africa, judging by its recent active, engage with with african nations. do you think russia has serious intentions on this policy is going to be long term o roster. melissa hutton stood 1st. it is not entirely correct to say that russia is returning to africa from us because it never really laugh at the mo, the scale of its presence has changed. of course, the policy pivot towards the west in the 19 ninety's made russia forget about its african friends and all that the ussr had done for them as life of the cost. and it did a lot it help of african nations achieve economic and financial dependence. it partnered
12:26 pm
with them built factory as an infrastructure is trained, staff, established scientific research centers. then russia literally abandoned. almost all of it is something it didn't need to thump. in fact, we didn't get any financial, political or moral benefits from our activities in africa. actually, that was a big mistake, and now we're starting to realize it. it's a slow process we've, we've had our doubts and made a few stops along the way. and i think the special military operation has now given a new impetus to russia's return to africa with cisco, it tore away the disguises, revealing our true friends and foes for their vessel african nations that are still rather weak and not truly independent actors in today's system. of international relations weren't afraid to speak up against the economic sanctions and stood firm in the face of immense pressure from the west. despite certain inconsistencies during the voting on some of the un anti russian resolutions,
12:27 pm
either one of their behavior was exemplary. as his former po, and why is that? as ye said, russia left africans behind in the 1990s, shifting its focus to the west. so why do they still have worn feelings for russia? zealous comes, you see, lucy, russia left africa ending its presence on the continent, but everything it hadn't done there remained in africa, but that most unlike colonizers who drained its resources, we actually helped create african economies of the soviet union built over 300 major industrial enterprises. more than a 1000 infrastructure facilities and trained over 500000 qualified staff in africa . this means a lot of african speak russian and understand our mentality and culture. they're grateful because they remember what the soviet union did to help them achieve both political and economic sovereignty of the bike and the current situation around the
12:28 pm
special military operations has shown them that the same methods of colonial oppression, once utilized against africa, are being used today. against russia, he may not limit him in those up uh, but at the same time, western media and politicians accuse russia of neo colonial policies and attempts to extend its influence to africa. what can you say about that yet? no, such, simply, i'm not sure what you mean by russia's new colonial policy only, but in that case, it should be the other way around. i see, take the russian empire, for example, it, it was the only empire where the periphery developed more dynamically than the center. those are some of the same was true for the soviet union, but i see russia as the center of the ussr invested heavily in central asia, ukraine, and the baltic region as it, as a result, the living standards in these republics were higher than in soviet russia and jason, you can talk all you want about new colonialism. so yes,
12:29 pm
you can attach labels. but you need to understand that new colonialism is all about looting and exerting political pressure for can you tell me what countries russia has looted or subjected to political pressure to beverly? has it robbed ukraine? you know, and of course, african nations luck. i'm no see, it has given them loans and opportunities for economic development and real growth on the calling russia and neo colonial state. that is a typical case of label pinning an attempt to turn the situation on its head a little of a look. and why does this narrative even exist? why do western media keep saying this about russia and africa? look at them just as of the international media and media coverage in general and are largely controlled by the west. and most of the information world wide is concentrated there at least online. and it's a powerful tool to control the public. lot of indeed an event is virtually nonexistent to day. if it doesn't show up online, it was not like that before. as you know,
12:30 pm
previously information was secondary to reality. and now it's all vice versa. as much that's why the importance of information grows infinitely. so if we want a strong partnership with africa, we need to take 2 factors into account. a lawyer in 1st, africa gets younger. most of its information, including on russia, from western sources, were lagging behind in that department. i know that our tea and many other russian media are getting active in africa. it's still, it's not enough of the 2nd. we need to be able to offer true information about the reality of africa in russia. so many russians still have an image of africa as described in her needs. sikowski is poems while old and.
