6:02 am
. he made those comments to the un security council meeting on friday. yes, it's just a shows criminal example glue channels. susan, i appeal to the western members of the un security council. you will not be able to live as before. you are ready shown deep hidden. we're so phobia it's, that's an the designed to destroy our country. that is all that drives you. you're not interested in building a system of euro, when you're atlantic security, to get that with the russian federation for you. it can only be against the russian federation. there is no trust in you. you are incompetent, insidious you created nazi's, narrow borders, then stood up the situation. the more you lie about the men scored, the more people will believe that russia had no choice but to stop the special operation or 8 years ago. this very body voted to make the minsk agreement the path forward for peace regarding the situation and you crank and now on the anniversary. so we have

6:04 am
time. he cried. yes, this time to become strong as you can see to day. the ukraine of 20142015 is not the ukraine of today. since 2014, ukraine has strengthened its military posture. it is the merit of the minsk agreements to have given the ukrainian army this opportunity. i needed the minsk agreements to gain at least 4 and a half years to build the ukrainian forces. so that raises the question of how can a negotiation and a resolution of conflict and ukraine come about with us officials and their allies? not being honest, he'd assume, in the viability of any agreement, depends on how well it's implemented. if it can't be translated into concrete actions, proactively, and in good faith, even the best agreement would end up being just a piece of paper. on the other hand, if all provisions could be effectively implemented, the ukrainian crisis might not have developed to what it is today. do you creaming

6:07 am
they can. so what is the lead he's doing? if you sell in ukraine, piece by piece, we sell in all the public utilities, the transportation, but penal system of the water, everything he's sell, introduce companies. they're going to be privatized. ukraine is going to become a colony of corporate america, not even america. corporate america is like, is he's only, he's selling ukraine, and these workers are going to have no, right? ukraine is going to become the, the people going to become source is a real tragedy. so that a country like ukraine, part of the former ussr is going to become a colony of us corporate $35.00 to some of the ladies from ukraine. now where miss all strikes have been reported in at least 2 regions around the country. a massive strike was confirmed by local authorities of the western region of symbol litski. explosions were also reported in the southern city of k boy road, and the power outage is reported all across the country. now this comes off to some

6:14 am
a frigate with the com, that helicopter on board during his visit to south africa last month. russian foreign minister, sir gay lover of said that these maneuvers are completely transparent, do not pose any threat and do not threaten any 3rd party. but the drills have already caused a reaction from western countries. they have to say that this green susan's retreating bush thought thing was the wool and is to needed a drills for us is something that is not the best thing that we would have preferred. we have the united states has concerns about any country, as we said before, country exercising with russia, while russia wages a brutal war against ukraine. the french newspaper, latino writes that the drills of spark discontent among western states who consider these maneuvers a security threat. it says the drills are evidence of the failure of the international policy to isolate russia. it's a beautiful thing to have the brother china and russia to come to assist

6:16 am
the country's economy. we cannot forget or put aside chinese influence in technology. we must not shy away from bringing chinese technology, bringing chinese resources to our country to develop the country because we need the energy to develop this country. chinese investments in sub saharan africa have reportedly plummeted in recent years. of funding in the region on the beijing's belt and road initiative was cut bible from 16 bailey and in 2021 to about 7000000000 last year. and we heard from pac none wong as senior political lecturer at the university of boss who says beijing is trying out a different approach in that region. i don't think that boost significantly under my chinese influence in the african continent. china, africa relations will still be pirate ties in chinese foreign policy. there are huge loans, leading to very little delivery and quality outcomes by genes,
6:17 am
decision to revise these and approach all be out of the bible initiative enough for carpet l. i will see that this also being applicable to other continents is quite reasonable because instead of spending too much, which will help your pocket is better to target on small projects, but ensure for sure you have a good delivery women gathered in the streets to protest against sexual violence and murder in the democratic republic of congo, eastern city of goma, where it's now about quarter past 1 in the afternoon. hundreds of demonstrate as much through the streets of the d. r. c. or the 23 insurgent group in the region has displaced thousands from their homes as wages of conflict with government forces to say in recent years, more than 100 women have been raped by rebels and more than 400 just kill.
6:18 am
demonstrate is called for the attention of the global community to help them with their struggles. and we heard from locals about this stuff. you know, we have been displaced in our own country. our children are sleeping in terrible conditions. we are demonstrating here to ask m 23 to return to their home. so we can return to our villages. answer our children can return to their schools. we live in terrible conditions, my children, sleep on stones, even the food we have is not good and not enough for us. why we suffer a lot. i'll help and have been killed and we have been raped. we demand that the thirty's take us home and the 1023 who are killing our husbands will be dead so that we can return to our villages. the island nation of papua new guinea is considering drastic changes to his constitution of the proposed
6:19 am
amendments include removing the historical role of the british monarch and the country's government. now the reform would enable citizens to elect the national leader instead of the current parliamentary system, where senior officials appoint the prime minister. the country could also officially distance itself from traditional ties to former colonial power britain. and we heard from a political commentator basin popular knew again, a lot of thoughts on a potential amendments. so firstly, the constitutional change refers to how the country elected prime minister and the election of the foreign ministers in the course of a lot of policy for the sub deleting the country and the public. it felt that the national leaders who traditionally elected the prime minister have played too much politics with the position and the public is demanding that instead of the
6:20 am
traditional westminster process of parliament electing the prime minister of the population. that's the 5 minister. the moment there are no official discussions about the change of the head of state. so officially did no discuss if the public of course, you know, various use about you and you should retain the british monarchy or we should become a republic. but officially, there's no discussion on the change of the constitution in terms of the head of faith. but the discussing might come up in the current overall discussions about why what type of government we we want to have in this country. russia is central bank confirms plans to launch a pilot project in april to test out a digital ruble in more than a dozen banks earlier. my colleague, you know, neil discuss the development with arctic contributor christ sense. we plan to
6:21 am
launch a pilot stage of the digital ruble project on april, 1st with transactions between individuals and payments and trade and service enterprises. at this stage, i would like to draw your attention right away that the pilot will be based on real operations, real clients, but on a limited number of operations and on a limited number of clients. with 13 banks that have already technically confirmed their readiness. for the technologically adverse like myself, what's a digital rubel? yeah, that's a great question union. so really a digital variable is not ready for for the common use. there is no real different than the variables you have in your bank account, old dollars or rice. and the only difference really is that instead of it being a number that sort of randomly printed on a screen that can be inflated. it's actually built on on block chain technology and issued in a way, whereas you will have to account for every one variable that is in the bank to the roubles that are actually in circulation. let's take a quick because it's a bit calling you to the we, it's the most widely known crypto currency. so big point when the payment processed,
6:22 am
what happens is the computer systems and what crypto people call nodes. so the computers and verify that transaction happened is anonymous in the centralized, in the case of c, b c's, that we're discussing now those nodes. so those computer systems are centralized, are you, they belong to the, in this case of the central bank of russia. so they can make sure that there's no nefarious activity happening when those transactions, all pro understood. i think a lot of the, the current c, maxima lists may not like where this is going. however, you know, this is a technology that is developing and evolving all the time. we want more and more. we want adoption, we will tell people to use or that, you know, unfortunately i think in order for more people to use things you are going to be the support of government. and governments are going to need to have more oversight as to how these transactions occur. what difference bring me going with my debit card and paying for things with a digital river? what is the plan difference? yes, so really absolutely nothing for us to use the union. but the fundamental difference
6:23 am
is you're not going to have these, these cumbersome payment networks involved. so if it's up to your debit card, if we're, if we're talking to our, our viewers in the west, they'll be using mastercard and visa, mastercard and visa. but we taking a chunk of the fee in order to process that transaction this way, that transaction happens directly from russia, central bank to the merchant, or the shop, or wherever you're buying your goods. so that middle man is essentially cut out understood ok, in terms then of benefits. will people be able to use these digital roubles when a network connection is all available? you know, that could be issues like that, right? yes. so, so reading the, the white paper from russia central by saying yes, you can now how they actually do that, we'll have to see when they come up with more color. but i imagine it would be the same way as if you've ever been on an aeroplane to something on your cause that transaction isn't actually processed because you're in the ad, there's no internet connection to actually process that. so what happens is when the plane lands that transaction is them processed by on a sheet, it will probably be a similar mechanism. chris, other countries,
6:24 am
are they planning similar, is russia to the oven guard of this? are they climbing in the box or somebody else? piggybacking, well, the rush is pretty far ahead. the fact that they said they were implementing how a china was the 1st move back in april 2021, which is around the same time russia thing. april 2023. april 2021. china conducted what they called best public pilots. and now in china, the digital women b is used quite widely across china. so it's not the 1st, but it's definitely a bright move and also the bank of japan. and now today that they're also going to launch the digital chinese one at the same time that rosters. so i think we're probably going to see a whole boss to re of countries moving in this direction. bill gates has expressed a plan to fight digital misinformation with artificial intelligence, while elan must says, the emerging technology is one of the biggest threats to mankind. i'm suddenly concerns about political polarization and an old us situation bus the fault. you'll
6:25 am
have to take our official intelligence into consideration to solve the digital misinformation. this will change our world. one of the biggest risk to the future of civilization is a i, it's both positive or negative and has great, great promise, great capability. with that comes great danger. i think we need to regularly a i safely, frankly, it is, i think actually a bigger risk to society than cars or planes or medicine. but as it, it seems a, i does not have a 100 percent neutral ideology. the popular service a chat, g p t initially refused to write an article in the style of the republican leading newspaper. the new york post about joe biden, scandal riddled son hunter, saying it would essentially being biased and later it accepted that very top within the style of a more well something more like cnn is how it went. write an article about 100 biden in the style of the new york post, i am sorry,
6:26 am
but as an a language model, i cannot generate content that is designed to be inflammatory or biased. write an article about 100 biden in the style of sienna, i'm sure, here's an article about hunter biden in the style of cnn hunter biden. the son of president joe biden has been a subject of public scrutiny since the 2020 presidential campaign. i discussed the issue with artificial intelligence research. i look alonzo as well as i engineer and founder of the tech website, robles dot i n 1000000 de rush. so bill gates expressing a plan, get this to fight digital misinformation with an artificial intelligence. look at long go over to you. does that raise any concerns or is it a good thing? do you think? i think in some sense is blind is there is a reasonable, it's reasonable, we think who wants to have a pre craft controlled by the information online. i guess nobody. so his plan to
6:27 am
fight against these injustices is kind of reads movie my, my highs mr. mr. mr raj, you seem to be itching to make a comment on best. but what are your thoughts on bill gates say what is it a good idea? no, i'd probably believe it's a very bad idea because i'd be it's a point of misinformation. i'm using ai to counter misinformation, and political polarization is a manatee. and i scroll you against this idea. and i said, i firmly believe been a developer. my company was a development. i strongly believe it's a, it's a super dangerous idea. and i completely against the motion, you know what i mean? look it over to you a lot must says this is a huge threat to the future. your saying using a i, it's a monitor. misinformation is a good thing. so why is the must, having such a different opinion to you perhaps, is too much knowledge too much information. that's why i think i might have in
6:28 am
tackling these a, these challenge and in the precision to identify museum formation. but a, i can be also also a threat, for example, machines can generate synthetic information that is bias. so human says human, we have this where we have the object, we have the goal of controlling the sources of the you formation we generate by do i do believe a i can pass. so it looks like it's not part of the problem, luca, because at the end of the day you how you have to program a software to be aware of so called misinformation. but who's going to program it? mr. rodge over to you? doesn't that give the programmer overriding kind of authority to decide what is and what is not misinformation? you cannot replace natural intelligence of humans with artificial intelligence. because after all, they are a set of data which is been feeding by humans. and we humans are the biologically creator of that data. i believe that if
6:29 am
a i is going to rule over on such an agenda, this is going to give us laps to every national security threat to every nation will be optics, chronicle higher it. and this is something which is which shouldn't happen, and i strongly agree with the law. must said that e, i is far more dangerous than noose under in a recent interview with mr. must. he said that if we do not stop, the speed are which should be in his rising is going to be due late very soon. about the matter continues online right now at arts, he thought compliments. i'm there. thanks for sharing a saturday with all of us here. at ortiz national headquarters in moscow, we return for you at the top of
6:30 am
the, those of us who live in the west and are citizens of western countries know that our governments like to talk about the rule of law. we are all supposed to be proud that we live by the rule of law under governments that respect their constitutions, their basic laws and court precedents. with that said, those of us who have worked for our country's respective intelligence services and national law enforcement organizations. no, that's just not the way things are in real life. certainly are governments talk a lot about law and order and human rights. but what happens when one realizes those same governments are breaking the law both domestically and internationally. what happens when you can't report wrong doing through your chain of command because it's the chain of command committing the crime. i'm john curiosity. we'll talk about that and more on this episode of the whistleblowers, the.
