i would like to add that 1st and foremost, these bands have led to the effect of energy brought us in the countries that involve sanctions have become more expensive due to some new supplies have emerged actually though more expensive blue to new logistic doesn't. yes, we're also suffered because logistics have become more expensive for us do wish, but nevertheless, new morgans have emerged in that are regarding other markets for our experts. we have reoriented, very west to the east. we've least applies to flooring trade in general, not only experts but also improved because therefore those countries that impose these sanctions have themselves suffered at the expense of restriction supply to the russian marketer. we see that number of companies which were working with us exporting to our markets are cutting production and cutting their staff to so the thesis is simple. when you impose restrictions, you cannot help. but we'll those restrictions yourself. this applies to those countries that are pursuing this policy low have so where are not at all discouraged good. we're learning in working under the new conditions and we'll continue to work under the circumstances and markets developing our own competences . i would like to say that responding with your new challenges,

we started actively investing in our own competence, which were previously wyatt abroad is includes electronics, every ation, automotive and mechanical engineering, abuse. that is all those critical technologies for which were guided power western partners, lee, but now there is no such trust, which means we have to develop it ourselves. but we went through this and if you remember before, 2014, if we went and looked at the shelves were shops, it was mostly improved food products to support the same will happen with industrial product. whether we just need more time or is that is why we have no doubt that we will be able to develop such competences and be self sufficient. and critical acknowledges on which our country's economic security defense was. selective humanity shown to those suffering in turkey and syrian last months devastating earthquakes. and why was age so slow to arrive to the latter from the west. that's down than to next in the 360 views they close, but i the

ah, hello, i'm manila chan you are tuned into modus operandi. a devastating natural disaster is known to mobilize the international community to put a pause on politics and help our fellow man. so when multiple major earthquakes nearly 8.0 on the richter scale, hit southern turkey and northwest syria, only one of those countries saw immediate help from abroad. this week will examine the politics of humanitarian aid. when disaster strikes, who got it and who was left to die? all right, let's get into the ammo. the me, the images are horrible, entire city blocks crumbling as the cameras roll on innocent civilians,

babies to great grandmothers, all trapped under debris as hold buildings are reduced to rubble when pre dawn earthquakes measuring nearly 8 point on the richter scale hit parts of southern turkey and northwest regions of syria. this cross border crisis killing nearly 50000 people so far with that death toll expected to continue to climb in turkey, the response from the international community was swift. this long time nato partner saw the benefits of membership swing in the action just hours after the ground stop shaking. life saving equipment began clearing. what was, what homes? western allies, such as the us, that you immediately deploying everything from manpower to food, blankets to temporary shelter to aid survivors. as the temperatures dipped below freezing, massive rescue efforts continued for over a week. meanwhile, just

a few miles away on the other side of the border in aleppo, syria, similar scenes of destruction, but with one market difference. western aid was absent. adding insult to injury the us state department refusing to lift broad sanctions on syria that would allow nations and n g o's from delivering life saving measures to help this war. torn province, president bashar al assad, and the 1st lady of syria made a trip to visit the devastation firsthand. listen to what he had to say. the west has reportedly prioritized politics over the humanitarian situation. but this is not true, because in order to prioritize one case over another, both of them must exist. the political situation is there, unlike the humanitarian case, it is therefore normal to politicize the situation. in terms of human sentiments, it exists neither now nor in the past, nor during, nor after modern colonialism. 600 years ago,

colonialism was founded on the murder theft and plunder of people. babies, children, families trapped under rubble, punishments for the crime of being borne, therion. now stephen uni is the chief editor at mid east discourse due to the quake and limited electricity in theory i just 10 minutes a day that fall out from the u. s. sanctions. stephen was able to actually send us a brief video from the ground in the taco syria. first of all, northwest syria, and the city of live suburb of education, nor, nor philip bo. it's not under the hands of variable, it's under the control of the radical. slavic tears groups to hurl sha wooster, p. call on the star and they are the branch of okay, the. the spurious use radical from a bloodthirsty terrace. how are funded,

supported and trained by the america, by, by the united states since day one. and they were brought into syria through turkey . the astir of also, our half of them are not even a syrian, they're from chechnya. they're the weavers there from manor staff. project is done and others. and these seem did a soon the soon in government and the u. e and the united nations on several occasions through the earthquake, they wanted to send a to the, to, to live those radical islamic terrace. dear refuse those trucks to come in. and they want the money for the trucks and, and then decide the fighting on who's going to treat it. was going to steve, that 8. that's number one. number 2. do you know, did the united states have sanctions on see it for the last 12 years? and this and they are number one cause of the for the last 12 years. so that's why

syria has a lack of shortage of gasoline shortage of fuel shortage of electricity as everyone . no, no one can live with 10 minutes of electricity and we're doing or again, we're living through that because of the american sanctions. and because of the illegal appearance of the united states in the east of syria, and then stealing our oil and gas in the east of syria, what individuals can do the individuals has to, from all over the world, journalist and activists, and even normal people to pressure the united nation pressure, the united states, and there are congressmen and the parliament numbers on lifting complete sanctions of syria because lifting the sanctions of syria for 180 days, only an aide is called a joke. no one can rebuild a rebuild houses, 4 or 5500000 people are homeless because of this earthquake in a 180 days. what's what the suffering we're going through today?

and before the squeak, it's all caused by the united states and caused by the sanctions that they know the states. but the sooner people are suffering because of these sanctions. and that is what individual people can do to help brush your, your congressmen, your parliament, number on lifting sanctions off of syria. that is millions of families suffering and syria. and for more on the crisis in syria, the quake aftermath and the sanctions will turn to veteran war correspondent, in hot spots around the world like the balkan, syria, iran, iraq, you name it. he has covered it, elijah maggie is joining us. so a larger, a lot of calls from around the world for the us to immediately lift sanctions on syria. so in our international aid and money can get through initially after the quakes hit state department spokesman, net price said no,

the u. s. is unwilling to do that because bashar al assad would be exploiting that . i'm of course, paraphrasing here, but that's the essence of what he said. now, the u. s. has eased some of those sanctions, at least for relief efforts. this is only for $180.00 days. why do you think the u . s. temporarily shows this path? what 1st of all, we have to be extremely careful about what the. busy us as nice and according be to the un wrap up on humans and release them, release the document that the american relief is not complete and leaves a lot of space. 2 ambiguously. first of all, the population. busy interior in duncan, and we're here we're talking about mainly syria because it did the country that has received in the international support,

particularly almost none from the way it because it speak about offering any day and age the population affected by the way. now we have seen that the population effects the by the way need. busy support in the for to 7 day to remove the debris, which means that there are in need of teens of the national games with dog with. busy equipment that can see beyond the concrete and can monitor the heat of the population that are trapped under the degree. however. busy we have gone beyond that now what the population is in need of a water food and blanket and they need tense and they need to reconstruct that. now the, the. busy us is not lifting the sanctions on the reconstruction. that's one

to do us is leaving a big gap in, allowing the banks to deal with syria, allowing companies to be with syria. the central bank is then under sanctions. so all the company is going to send material to reconstruct or not they can do that without being on this section because there are many sub sanctions to the initial caesar. so this m b m bit with you that led by the us is really unfair for the population that have suffered the way. the other point is, why do you ask, shoot this path? it because the u. s. as been under tremendous as social media and media pressure. can you call me of a country that been suffering from such a strong way at this level of 7.8 maximum and then leave it on its

own. we were under tension. now, it is important to do something, so what they have done, they have done something to feed the p r and say, well we have done that. and now we allow people to support the, the syrian who have suffered from the consequences of any way. nonetheless, it is very ambiguous and she is not getting the western support entered today. so bashar assad actually made a comment about the u. s. looting of the middle east of its oil, its treasure. does this relate to why there have been sanctions on serious and the 1970 s. while i think any come through with the resources and having a strategic geopolitical location. is it because today it's not a blessing. and because the israel in want of syria and want to go that high and it

has already occupied their goal and height, this is something that is against the american policy. and again, the policy. this is why the americans over demonize those who are against them or at least who do not submit to them because it has not been against the americans read the. busy because it has collaborated and maintain a bank with relationship with the what in general because there is no need to become the. busy any of europe, all the united states, however. busy pain kind of in dependency and maintain its art integrity by looking after. busy interest like every single nation, because of that, the americans don't want that in the middle east. and as we had general with the clubs saying a 4 star general,

he said the americans were planning to occupy 7 countries in 5 years. starting from, i've gotten this done, iraq and syria before going lebanon, and iran, sudan, so mighty exeter and libya. so syria was on the line of the night to stage to be occupied. and we talk in 2001. and just after the 911, this is why tyria is part of the u. s. plan to be by o to be submit. and coming up next. the white helmet was heralded by the west. now speaking out against it, we'll discuss it when we return with elijah man. yeah. sit tight, demo will be right back. i, i use for the move

in the business and you will be in the ready daily noticed yours on your medical graham when you wrote it, you know, we just got to it is just such and such a short message after the different student info. we can get you thrown with them probably, and you're still there with you. i wish to hear that. i think if history as you brought in at the studies of play stuff coming to off on ok, which which and it was just posted sustainable for a moment. because a lease knew a divorce, or if you don't wish to know for the doesn't or just to do given the other than that, you're going to go to these 1st opinion. finances come on me

. welcome back to the mo i'm manila chan. syrians are dying as we speak, but much of the west is trying to turn this natural disaster into the political failure of bashar al assad. olaja man yea, is still with us to continue this conversation. so elijah, the co, the west is criticizing syria and russia for only having one corridor for aid to come through russia. as we know as an ally of assad and helped prevent and outright who in the country nearly a decade ago. the russians also help the syrian government defeat isis and protect world heritage site. but if the rebels control the north west region and american troops are in the north east of syria, with all the oil wells,

isn't it incumbent on the us to negotiate safe travel routes? in the north west since the rebels and the u. s. have the sort of the same objective of toppling assad. well even if they have the same goal today, they. busy negotiation or really restore between the us and the russian will all present on the same ground in syria because there are some russian forces in the north east, but they don't have the upper hand and the americans with the upper now to make it clear that had agreed and informed the united nation that he is going to permit a treat, crossing from turkey into syria, and then they can use the crossing. now the reason why washing china and syria was stopping other crossing because it is related to the sovereignty. if syria allowed

. so many crossing to go through and the americans are supporting the job is to talking about the guy that was talking about isis room and then we talking about it to our it live in know, west year. yeah, it means that the americans will create the fact to kind of the small stay within syria and take this part of syria and occupied forever. this is what the land of the americans to maintain supporting this area. just not a. busy big, however, there are around 4000000 people living in it. and because of that, the russian and the chinese, according to the way of the us government, wanted to limit the active to be under the control of the tack. and under the control of the united nations to allow to support and the feel of human the k without. busy becoming

a place where the west can transform and the bait and they already, they are based in the west and the north east, syria, there's one day they have to be. so that's one second thing is there are other crossing that the government in damascus allowed. and open from have side. it is, this is rocket that leads to adrian. however, yeah, on the other side, open no structure where x ices x in syria. refuse to allow the goods to cross from one side to another because they think this way. busy and give a wake up, hold to the population that is in it, live and invite them unconscious. be to go and live in the regime controlled area because these people want to live in be and they have own in

other part. and they have a willingly connected to wolves to that side, thinking that the war will continue. however, the minute and in the part of preventing anyone from crossing on the government sites. this is why the government say, well, i give you the day and we share what we have and if you had to refuse, now there is another crossing from the side and that the crossing from the. busy side at the put it condition that it should go to a frame, which is a province on the dentist for that very much affected by the way. and it is not so however, the minute of that control at the crossing from the, from west just to get from the east to the west of syria, on the border between the 2 side and all from and hums up through gate. and these

are pro american them deck and they have confiscated all the convoy of 32 trucks that were crossing from the side in. busy to are in all the area under the control of the frame where the city and also some of them who did not leave there. and there was a fight between the amended and no one's to steve the content of the trucks because they can see them. this seeming blockade of relief be it at the core doors or group, just afraid to cross the u. s. on these sanctions land mines. it's starting to draw even the higher of the controversial white helmets who have just now criticized the un for not stepping in in the way of aid. what do you make of that? what the, why 10 minutes has been trained by the research should they have been trained by

the what and they have a good purpose during the war in information and in putting up information. busy and that to the propaganda that the west was ready for it to. busy publish it, publish it, however, via the tie to stand against present in the sad has gone because after 13 years, 12 years of war, the west did not manage to over troll credit in this. therefore the white tenants are no longer useful for the west. and because they are no longer useful and the west deeds on base is of a, we don't have friends, we have interest basis relationship. then the white element today are look at in a different way. so the wife has a lot of money to spend on the gray,

120000000000, but very little money to spend on supporting people who wants to survive. those who remain alive after the asked me for that new research team, the british spending a few $1000000.00 only for the population. when syria, if we want to look only at yes, great, and not of the consequences of the war. president, russia, you said the cost is $84000000000.00 in turkey. and i think if you dozens of billions in syria because the province of the level and province of that was very much affected with over 4 and a half 1000000 people display. and without forgetting about the province of egypt and the one of the 3, therefore,

sending really $4.00 to $6000000.00 or even 10 or $100.00 is not going to be sufficient to buy 10. or they displace people. it's all going to be sufficient to buy food for them. and rather than granted, they need the year to reconstruct. and he has 98 nation supporting m series. $10.00 to $15.00 nation supporting without spending money because they call and benny according to the. busy sanction that sees the u. s. and e u sanction. and you can imagine the countryway can help you. the oil cannot use the wheat and. busy is harvey surviving were the little edits to see and managing the. busy country and want to reconstruct after the war that the expense that the cost reached between $500.00 to $800000000.00. and on top of that, now the government needs to be with a natural disaster. this is

a lot or government or any government to deal with. this is why china, russia and the whole why do, with a little bit of sense toward humanity, regardless if they are, syrian or non syrian is inviting the us to lift all of the sanction because they know need for very long paper explaining which article in which paragraph and what's where people can send or not to send to syria. the americans could have said we suspend. busy or the sanctions and further notice and then everybody would go and support you for one reason. busy because everybody need to do some business and reconstruct interior is also. busy official, if we don't want to look at do many inside and supporting people in the i. yes. the henry kissinger rules for diplomacy. last thing here, elijah,

you're in brussels home to the european union. h q. at this point, not one plane has come into damascus to help the syrians, although they have helped turkey. why not? they are so much closer to syria than se, then sweller. yet even the venezuelan have sense help. make me laugh because it's when it's not under the u. s. thumb and the we in brussels. unfortunately, with all the european union gathering $28.00 nations under the us and they do whatever the americans are doing. and they act according to the will of the americans and they have eyes, it and pockets own the war the state. so when we see a country like when it's where it's really shameful for the you, you to look at

a country under the sanction. like when it's way that, that been suffering so much sending and they're playing. they could have done at least is small gesture with a population that lives in syria, particularly the area that serve the purpose of the americans and natal instead of serving their focuses. and here i'm talking about it live that is affected. not even that area was supported. so when, when way that tend to playing cell do are abs and the and said they will send more and they send the team to. busy it but this all these have money. however they, they charge god, they will don't want to trigger the angle the american then say when sending a. busy lot of support to syria, so even that you make it a country that is bullying the was including brussels,

including the european here who are taking decisions against the interests of the european populations, but against the interest of the humanity. not to go and support a population in need. after such a scale of escalades is really strange once and once he is really ashamed to be european, a larger man, a thank you so much for that analysis. you can find more of olaja work at olaja, j, m dot wordpress dot com. and that is going to do it for this week's episode at modus operandi the show that dig deep into foreign policy. i'm your host manila chan. thank you for tuning in. we'll see you again next time to figure out the am out. ah,

with great in government has been killing his own people and on boss for years. it's amazing. the admission not to be covered in western media. it hasn't been covered for the last 8 years. i'm here for 5 minutes and then i'm told the 1st 5 people they found it was 5 decapitated head winding up in a quarterly equest on demand. a boy fos could that it can use me no fiber to say keep doing your follow kid. the v v information will almost all the independent journalists to pointed out that nato and the u. s. were directly responsible for initiating the military conflict in ukraine, our casualties of it as long as we want the war to continue. we will fight that more using ukrainians as proxies and we will fight it to the last ukrainian death. that's what's happened in dumbass this whole time. this is,

these aren't objects, these are people that and so that's why i do what i do. that's why i'm here. ah, you wouldn't excuse you yet. you lay committed another terrorist act. another cried duplicate, but i answered the boarder territory. pretty good. open fire and a civilian. vladimir putin bronze thursday's ukrainian linked attacks on russia's bree out region, an act of terror with security services saying exclusive devices of being discovered hidden across the area. are you printing group designated out terrorist by rochelle? claim responsibility for the incident that leader was previously known to be linked to neo nazi ideology. also ahead on the program notebook. so it was agreed.
