g shonasha, gish jones, they're numb, call it ticks and culture. we have a very rich experience of working together talent. we are both in favor of multi polar approaches and actually show democrat port russia such decisiveness in strengthening a strategic corporation and driven down to a widening the scope. she's in a hook of our cooperation and multi party acculturation to strengthen our country's role and support. so we're here teaching in the global development process. your opinion is very important for us as to so we are willing to exchange our views on a broad range of aspects. thank you. well that service and president vladimir

putin holding a bilateral meeting with the chinese ruling parties. foreign policy chief, we'll have a some of that a little bit later on amid that visit to russia. beijing didn't hold back as it's ok much america on monday publishing a report titled us had germany and it's pearls. my concluded that washington uses the cover of promoting democracy to impose global rules that serve its own interests. the use of force has been a feature of us expansionism from its founding since 2001 alone. washington has launched wars in the name of fighting terrorism that if claimed nearly a 1000000 lives, 335000 of them civilians for a century, the u. s. has created divisive blocks acting under its influence and has fostered color revolutions to disrupt governments. they oppose. lately, washington has raised the false dichotomy of democracies versus autocracies, an arbitrarily labeled nations as members of separate camps. on china's report is

divided into several parts, highlighting u. s. attempts around the world where pursues a particular agenda. according to beijing, washington has stokes global conflicts and confrontation due to its quote, cold war mentality. the paper claims the u. s. has an aggressive style of foreign policy and his efforts to hold on to power and also urges washington to re examine his practices and let go of what china calls, american arrogance and prejudice. c g t n correspondence you visual told us more. the report covers that the u. s. has been escalating a great power competing across the globe. and the country has acted more boldly to interfere the internal affairs of the are the countries and the united states really develop had to model playbook to stage a color revolutions. and it has overstressed, the concept of national security abuse, export controls and force the unilateral sanctions upon others. so it's basically

a series of action in multiple perspectives. and so it's also a pointing out the action of playing the democracy card, but rather hurting the interests of people from many countries. if you look at the timing of the import, this really comes in the same day where you as president joe biden, made a surprise visit to keith. and also not only just this record, but also the 2nd day on tuesday, try to issue another report called the global security initiative concept. the paper which is also relevant to more relevant to the security issue, dialogue and negotiation. political settlement has been the major proposal by china and basically any regional issue when it comes to conflict crisis. and it could be as proved, the most wise, the decisions resolving any disputes or vision cars,

also called on western nations to stop fueling. the conflicts in ukraine reframe from drawing parallels with it to tie one. china's new foreign minister, such a cavalier attitude to violence in the former, could prompt further unrest inside pay. they should consider as taiwan to be its territory. according to the one china policy, the cornerstone of sino american relations. we urge certain countries to immediately stop, fueling the fire, stop shifting, blame to china, and stop touting ukraine today. taiwan to morrow, we stand firmly against any form of hedge. mony any foreign interference in china's affairs, ever since the outbreak of the specialists are operations on the war ukraine, the united states and its close allies, ah, basically claiming that china will invade a taiwan o, where by 8 reality power in this part of china and the unification of taiwan is the beggar trend, and whatever that may eventually happen will not be called

a invasion or aggression, for example, by any stretch of the imagination into or be part of the chinese people's rena vacation. or therefore, i think foreign minister jingle strongly condemns. such fragrant violation of the one on the policy and those dangerous attempts try to promote taiwan separatism and turning taiwan he to separate so ring country or russia has no doubts over who was behind the north stream pipeline. a thanks back in september, all the attackers motives, those comments came as russia submitted a resolution to the un security council, calling from independence international investigation into the incident. you civilians, we're not engaged in spreading disinformation. we're not trying to build indictments based on allegations in the spirit of being highly likely in the case of undermining the pipeline. there is no doubt about the motive of the crime, nor its perpetrators,

nor the way in which the crime was committed. we're not here to have a trial in the security council. we've submitted a draw a security council resolution with instructions to conduct an independent international investigation. we forced to do this because we have doubts about the effectiveness, transparency, and impartiality of the ongoing investigations. we do not see any desire for co operation on the part of our partners, which as we heard of the russian representative of the russian bastard and dan's. yet he made it abundantly clear that at this point of all the science seemed to indicate the united states is responsible. the u. s. representative dismissed allegations and the evidence put forward by seymour hers and others as merely a conspiracy theories from the internet. those were the words they use. now, the chinese representative, i made a point of saying that flat out denial from the united states without going in to the details. all the evidence that has been presented was simply unacceptable. we heard from different countries talking about the potential danger threats. the

environment i carried out is result of id of need for thorough investigation and accountability. any deliberate act of sabotage against trans boundary infrastructure is a malicious act. china welcomes the draft of resolution tabled by rushing the council, and believes that it is of utmost significance to authorize an international investigation into the sabotage of the north stream pipelines. acts of sabotage against energy infrastructure, such as explosions that damage the north stream. one and 2 gas pipelines in the baltic sea last september are unacceptable. they pose a significant threat to international security, stability and prosperity. vandalism, to critical infrastructure is an unacceptable act that we have a life and death impact. on contrast, people, let's see, the switzerland is concerned about the damage to nordstrom $1.00 and $2.00 gas pipelines which resulted in warning gas leaks and did. so. last september,

all available information indicates that there is an active sabotaged for we heard from the members of the 15 member body that leads the united nations. the security council there were briefings we heard from rosemary. decarlo un under secretary we heard from jeffery sack of columbia university, the well respected economists. we also heard from brain gobber and the cia analyst who's become an advocate apiece. they all gave remarks and jeffrey sachs, in particular, emphasized the need for an investigation to be conducted by the un and the stations of the lord, st. terrorism, denmark, germany and sweden. these countries presumably know much more about the circumstances of the terrorist attack. sweden, in particular, has perhaps the most to tell the world about mobily suite has kept the results of its investigation secret from the rest of the world, and turn down

a joint investigation with denmark in germany. in the interest of global peace, the un security council should require these countries to mediately turn over the results of their investigations to the un security council. there was quite an interesting amount of emphasis placed on the need for security and why the destruction the pipeline was unacceptable. russia says it's pretty clear at this point who is responsible. china is not satisfied with the answers or lack of answers from the united states. united states dismisses everything is somehow just being an internet conspiracy theory without getting into any details about why they feel it is incorrect. quite a meeting un security council. but we spoke to former ca, officer raymond, the govern who brief, the un security council members at the meeting. and he says that an international investigation is not an interest of some western countries. there are people who don't want to initial investigation. those are the people that are subservient to

the united states who had the opportunity that baltic c exercise and they will exercise and who profiting from it? well we had the secretary state saying what a great opportunity to manage it. terrific opportunities in my view, the bottom line is circumstantial evidence is compelling. i mean, what more do you need? this suggest that when biden says, we have the means, we're going to do it. don't worry about it. we get this blow up. we can stop nord screen, european members, so security council just to, to what us policy is you can expect an independent appreciation from them. or the former australian prime minister has unveiled that the foreign interference bowls introduced by him back in 2018 were aimed at china, but failed to reach their goals. the most active state and political party seeking

to influence public affairs in australia, china. but they don't seem to appear on the register. the law was aimed at orthor, terry in states and not australia, security allies and geopolitical tensions had worse. and since it was introduced law introduced in 2018 was the biggest counter intelligence overall in decades, almost aimed at combatting espionage activities and political interference. so that time it was not aimed directly at china. symbol now says that the key purpose of a foreign interest register was to disclose the links. the chinese communist party had formed austria relations between china and australia, have saw it in recent years of the cambra urge the investigation into the origin of cobra, 9 seen back in 2020 and how china has handled the virus outbreak. also slipping a 5 g network bang on tiny chinese tech giant wall way. china has denied any wrong doing to unresponsive with formal bundle. most trillion products such as coal, wine, bali, and lobsters, australia,

and china have recently sold repaired diplomatic size and basing has begun to ease tre box on australian coal on some agriculture photos. jim anderson, director of the center for counselor, had your morning studies says by pushing china away, australia is acting against its interests on washington's commands. in the case of a stranger, it's a tragedy because for at least 50 years, the relations with china had been warming. and only a few years ago, the very cordial relations with china on from both the major parties that matter who was in government here. chinese groups, academic groups, you know, since shoot all of these sorts of groups, which of course have some links to the government in china. but there was no real concern about it. and bleeding politicians visited china and because after all, china had become because trade partner and there was no real trick now very quickly because of the, the harsh policy. all the jealous,

harsh policy of the trumpet administration towards china and the beginning of the trump carried on by the boston regime. a strike has followed suit and sent war ships to the south china sea. and china has responded with some crippling restrictions on strike exports to china. you know, said the relations have really gone downhill very quickly. as a, as a direct result of the government in camber operating under the instructions of washington. the fighting continues on the phone lines of don bus r t got an exclusive look the operations of the or all but holly and which is a special assault units of the russian army. correspondence you could have done of some, this reports from the ground to an unfamiliar rye. this may look like one colossal thicket, but the 1st look is deceptive. the soil here is carved with trenches, reinforced with concrete. ukraine has turned this woodland into a citadel. russia,

in turn, is bulldozing this bastion with tanks. after a couple of days of rest, this tank crew is once again on its way to take part in the onslaught in russia on stored on ukrainian positions in the forest outside chrome. and now this is russia's separate assault battalion, ural, a crew of volunteers who couldn't let their military experience go to waste. dunlab for you on this battalion is a separate assault unit of the ministry of defense with the support of a private individual. and our task is to knock the enemy out of the forest. so we work from different distances. they rush ukraine's positions and raise hell in the midst of the enemy, key of troops respond with all they've got, are p, jeez,

artillery and heavy caliber rounds, the crews seem unfazed. russian tanks continue the fight until they run out of ammunition scarred but fully functional. they withdraw to return with more firepower tanks provide insoluble cover to wash and ground troops. one special forces unit capitalizes on the distraction and gets close to one of the enemy dugouts. ah, this nary 20 meters between the warring sites, 3 ukrainian soldiers try to put up a fight. but when the commander is down by a clean head shot, the peak at the drone camera, hands up in the air. mm.

ukrainian officials have been claiming this is what russia's new rule out offensive looks like. but given how much reserve state put today, it was combat reconnaissance at best. i'm a get done of reporting from the don bus r t c. and finally, over to nigeria, which is africa's most populous nation, and is preparing for presidential elections this saturday. here in nazi, we're kicking off our special coverage of one of the world's most significant elections this year. with a late seen candidates will take parts with 3 of the leaders representing the main regents of the country. though to decisions have been complicated by multiple

crises in the country from economic troubles, to energy issues. archie correspondence ritual blevins has more details. the west african nation of nigeria is days away from an election that will determine the country's next president. and while some races have humane options, nigerians have 18 to choose from who represent a wide range of views and interests. the question at hand is who will replace the current president bahama do bihari, who has been in office for the last 8 years? that's out there. contenders represent the major regions in africa as most populous nation. first, there's bola, mad to new, from the ruling. all progressives, congress party, as a former governor, he has often boasted about helping the current president get into office. his favorite slogan translates to it's my turn, and he is promising to create jobs focused on the economy and tackle violent crime . this is a revolution. the selection is the revolution we shall take over from them. they

don't want collection to take place, but we won't accept they want to hide on the fuel scarcity to cause the crisis, so that there won't be an election to new wrappers as your robot. the 3rd largest ethnic group in nigeria, which makes up around 20 percent of the population, while the candidate is part of the wealthy political establishment, the people he stands for are known to be farmers and craftsmen. the next contender is tico above our car, the leader of the pupils democratic party has a former vice president. he is considered by many to be the most experienced politician still trying even after 5 unsuccessful presidential bid. he represents the full lonnie. i'm majority muslim group in the north which makes up around 6 percent of the population. his latest campaign has revolved or on the slogan of recover nigeria, where he promises a small government that turns the country into the hub of crude oil refining in africa. let me promise nigerians that we shall never disappoint you. if you give us

your mandate. we promised to live by our promises and have united country a peaceful country that we have a buoyant economy. and we have the best education for children and also delegate powers to states local governments with corresponding resources. then there's peter o, we a former governor and nominee of the labor party. he represents the igloo people of south east nigeria which make up or on 18 percent of the population seen by many as an outsider. he is the youngest of the top 3 contenders that age 61. and he has focused on the younger generation with pledges to fight corruption and to change the economic priorities from consumption to production in line with my upbringing, especially my mothers council, my promises that nigeria resources will be most prudently used. and as the commander in chief i pita, obee sicily pledge, they're all packed with nigeria will be diligently pursued to created new nigeria, characterized by sustainable and inclusive growth and development. while nigeria is

the most populous nation in africa, it's estimated that only around $93000000.00 people or less than half of the country are registered to vote. and when it comes to the issues the new president will inherit. there are many ranging from the economic crisis that has left citizens dealing with cash shortages to an energy crisis that has drawn attention to the nations controversial petrol subsidies. as a result, all eyes will be on saturdays election and what it means for the future of nigeria . public opinion polls suggest that most nigerians consider the country's political cause to be problematic with the states overwhelmed by a trust crisis caused by a hasty currency reform. and issues with energy stability due to a lack of fuel. aside from poverty, nigerians also faced a security crisis and issues with terrorism, which caused an upsurge of violence in the country just last week. at least a policeman being killed in 2 separate sites and they were not to the elections

with country security services, blame the indigenous people of be off for our rebel grief. the killings have struck into locals and raise the question of security polling stations. we heard from an analyst who said that there are signs of foreign intervention aimed at destabilizing the situation of the elections. nobody benefits for all of our lives . so any pro, but that is when to leads to violence is not going to be.
