just a few streets away from the city center. there's no hiding from rush and groans, swarming the skies here. the command and cave is reluctant to admit their garrison is bleeding terribly here . but their bravado was shattered by a selfie videos of ukrainian soldiers that seep through censorship. or will i got hit here right in my hands. unfortunately, that's how this goes. the other war, i'm alive, thing god, i'm thinking of 2 fellow soldiers about where they are. i hope they got out alive over. only one major road remains available for the ukrainian troops to flee the back moved horror. it's already within reach of wagner's artillery for family and

that a group of ukrainians attacked a civilian vehicle in russia's brianne st. border region. 2 people were killed and that boy we've just discussed, was wounded by the gunfire. officials have called it an act of terror will show your foot is now released by russia's federal security services from the scene after the attack. i will warn you in advance, you might very well find some of the following images disturbing. the footage i does show the col, riddled with bullets. a separate explosive devices were discovered after a search of that area. now, according to the russian foreign ministry, the majority of these weapons supply to ukraine do come from nato countries. ultimately raising the question whether the members of the nato alliance can now be qualified as sponsors of terror. russian authority say the militants who conducted the attack were pushed back into ukraine and territory and destroyed by intense artillery fire. a correspond, donald caught her and taking a closer look at this ukrainian group that has claimed responsibility for the

attack is also exploring the possible motives a ukrainian terrorist attack in russia's brianne screeching. they crossed the border and opened fire on civilians with neo nazis. once again, leading the charge, one of whom was the notorious russian national denise, nikita, founder of the treacherous russian volunteer corps, doable in order for the russian, val, and to cool to become a legal unit. i had to move mountains. i touched the hands of hull that took military abreast of this country. politicians too, and their historic advisors and the deputy heads of the security services of ukraine, new and so on and so forth. so personally talked to scot's of people before early moved the mountain student dickinson organized his extremist battalion alongside a clothing brand of like political orientation, white racks, appealing to racist football hooligans. and the far right m a seen the brand features a wide array of symbols loved by fascists. the. # black, sun, iron cross,

and the number 88, according to vice news, nikita declared, this new clothing line would become the neo nazi nike in ret interview and getting his outline, his ambitious vision for white wrecks coordinate and all encompassing lifestyle brand. a sort of nike for nazis that promotes his old ugly ideologists, something strong, healthy, inspirational. in recent years, the white wrecks logo includes a helmet word and circled by a black sun. an occult symbol that's been adopted by new nurses, the logo has become an increasingly common site in european james fight clubs and football terraces. but in occasions, not just trying to help nazi enthusiasts play dress up, know he's created a means of communication between members of the ultra right wing, free from the scrutiny of the mentally healthy part of the population. you can't see any swastikas or rooms. these should be clothes that people are comfortable wearing around town so that they can recognize each other terrorizing civilians alongside nikita in was the militant yoga master to deal with. are the on ski

search him up on google and you might run into his seemingly harmless invitation to yoga classes, but a quick visit to his instagram. we'll leave you without any doubt that he is just one more neo nazi. that's not, although there was yet another fascist among them. oswald, lemme, i wanted criminal in russia. these are the people that key of seems to think are fighting for freedom against the so called bruton regime. today, the russian federation is an entity involving a large number of, into ethnic, into religious, socio political and other conflicts. these are the people who are fighting against the putin regime and his supporters with weapons in their hands. perhaps the russians are starting to wake up realizing things and taking some specific measures . and unfortunately that's probably how the western media is going to spin things as well. no mention of the actual neo nazis leading campaigns of abuse against civilians just closed eyes and cupboard ears. a member of that terrorist group was

proudly posing with a nationalist flag in the brianna bridge and right after the attack on civilians. you previously appeared in a report by cnn praising ukrainian troops on snake island. so strategically important area in the black sea. yes. the one of us that if anybody tells you it's not intimidating, he's a liar, says fortuna, a volunteer soldier. watch what for call. it was chaos. the garrison here was small . russia captured the island quickly. taking the island back. a u. s. government funded think tank, the atlantic councils, digital forensic research lab. there's a huge $40000.00 twitter users, including ordinary americans of engaging and what it called in authentic behavior. they were accused of showing public support for one of india's major political parties. well, let's learn more. right now. live to watch is room to and sharma who's joining us live here on this program from new delhi where it's about 8 42 pm where you are

right now to engine understand. it's a bit of a, maybe a 4 2nd delay between our signals and joint, but if you could bring us up to speed, what do we know about these new twitter file revelations? you c, r e, the latest twitter files have a real how e disinformation research body, which is associated with with the usaa state department. and also has long term ties with george soros had essentially in 2021 pressure twitter to delete some for the 1000 or the gowns from their platform. and these accounts were all members of the party agenda barking in india. my viewed on the party or the b b as essentially the political party of indian prime minister, not in the more the now important dimension. george soros here, as he said, to be the man, the fees behind repeated regime change attempts in india. and remember in the us do

for a general election next hour in 2024. now mapped ivy. the john and this essentially behind twitter files of exposing 2 to 5 really often disclose that then security and trust chief of twitter esentially had examined most of these accounts, these 40000 accounts here that we're talking about. and all of them appeared to be real people at linda council's digital forensic research lab said the suspected $40000.00 accounts of being paid employees, or possibly volunteers of india's party or genetic party. but the list was full of ordinary americans. many with no connection to india and no clue about ending politics. twitter agreed, one reason, many of the accounts remain active. thanks and it replied, trust and safety chief, your old ross, i spoke, checked a number of these accounts and virtually all appear to be real people. so global engagement center or g c essentially is funded by the us state department and it

cleans the 8 busts bisson formation and foreign propaganda. in fact, it also funds the think tank we're talking about here and also the digital forensic lab as they call it a. but in the past also they have a track record of targeting all the social media accounts that really doesn't suit their narrative. for example, around 500 accounts, we're talking about that they allege war spreading iranian disinformation of and also around 5000 accounts, 5500 chinese gowns. the alleged were associated with in fact, they were involved in state back to renew pollution. and now they also have india on their lives. but really interesting, rory, the timing of the, the report has been revealed at the time when of the us secretary of state anthony

drinking wisdom in dallas. so really super embarrassing for him and his government as he made a visit to india for the g 24 months still meet as well as the court meet that happened earlier today. right. he's run june sharma. thank you. but we did speak to an indian lawyer who says that the us think tanks are in many ways used to influence foreign leaders. he's american think tang sir. nothing but a friend. so george sorrows and she is. somebody was a very old man in a strand as to describe to me, are you open in it? so he's funding all of this propaganda to make sure that the people he doesn't like are somehow throwing out of by and he's in fact, you know, i exposed his hand a few days ago and he said that it was a day and then bug report. danny, it won't even book those out. so i think we should all be very of people like him

because he belongs to this class of chance. national oligarchs want to make sure that the leaders in different countries do his bidding . rather than doing what is right when people support them. in 2017, when the president donald trump came to power, then there was a significant section of the american establishment which was talking about how it had been brought about because of russian interference. and i think the problem with the american deep stand is that it doesn't dislike, need to know what their country 1st, instead of falling some sort of trans national, the army agenda, the russian foreign ministry has rebutted a claim coming from the u. s. secretary of state saying that in fact circle left off did not discuss the matter of a possible prisoner swap,

involving the american national poll wieland who is currently detained in russia. i clarified with mr lover of whether he raised the topic off well on yesterday. he said the us secretary of state didn't say a word about it. everything was said in state department yesterday about blank and concern regarding the situation of the u. s. citizen was a lie. this is inconceivable behavior of the us administration or the american version of the negotiations for the possible exchange of poll wheeler and who worked attained in 2018 on the espionage charges differs significantly from what the russian officials had to say. and while washington alleges that the u. s. put forward a quote serious proposal on the topic. moscow says its top diplomat had a small on the goat chat with his american counterpart in new delhi. i also raise the wrongful attention of paula. as i have on many previous occasions, the united states is put forward

a serious proposal. moscow should accept that. it was a short conversation, where the secretary had an opportunity to remind me of mister lab, we want to back it belongs with his family. and that there is a proposal on the table, we want the russians to take it. i really for reasons i'm sure you can understand. i don't want to get into what the back and forth. it was on that or detail. the conversations that we're still trying to have with the russians about getting mr. women back. let's try and clear these muddy waters now, but regarding this communicate between laughter often blank and of course lives on radio host and political compensated areas. steve gill, joining us live on arching international a very warm welcome to you today. so thanks for joining us on this topic. i just wanted to, if i can just kick off this 1st question is essentially competing claims on a fairly touchy topic. i mean, obviously the us would, would like to have this man back. but what do you make of the fact that the 2 sides don't have the same story at all? well, 1st of all, this was just a brush up meeting at this, sir, gathering

a foreign ministers. i think the state department's version is that it was only about a 10 minute conversation as they were walking and kind of bumped into each other, not a negotiated conversation. so let's just break this down in a timeline. you got about 10 minutes. maybe they say hello, you've got translators. so you let 10 minutes becomes about 5 minutes because you're having translations going back and forth. the state department says they talked about telling russia to back off in ukraine that they need to get back in the start treaty. and supposedly talked about vol, we'll and, and, and those are just 3 of the topics that they supposedly did in this less than 5 minutes conversation on the fly. while they're walking with translations going on, there wasn't enough time to bring up whelan. and this is clearly not true, that blanket actually brought this up to, to talk about any serious proposal when he's talking about war in ukraine and, and the start treat it just,

the timeline doesn't stick with the us. state department is saying that certainly doesn't fit. i mean, i, i guess a lateral as well labrador saying we didn't, we didn't have this conversation. so it's all a little bit bizarre. as a hot over, maria is a hot of a another spokesperson for the minister of foreign affairs saying this is very, very bizarre. behavior, let me ask you this particular blink and put apparently put mister wilson's issue essentially at the bottom of his listed as press conference. i mean, let me ask you this, you know, we have, we had the, well, with a female, a basketball player, brittany griner eventually returned about to america. how, how important is we lin's return for the us? but i think it's more important than, than returning a lesbian professional basketball player. but she fits the the woke profile of the by did ministration, trying to cater to his is political base. rather than doing what's right. she was clearly guilty of what she was charged with. well, we're not guilty of anything. and the u. s. government basically casting him to the wind, a former marine who's languishing in prison in russia while freeing her because the

political pressure from his left wing put the pressure on biden to get something done. they should have released both of these people. i mean, we were trading off for a noted arms dealer. we should've got a little bit more that a professional basketball player back to us. well, that certainly seems to be the general consensus. i certainly, when you look at the comments that came off to that in the united states of america, mr. king, what about, i mean, let's talk about bargaining chips here. i mean, i guess we learn is here on, on the russian territory. now is there anything that moscow needs from washington and they can use we'll do some sort of bargaining chip. i think there are certainly other opportunities to get people or issues resolved. i think right now unfortunately the rest of us relations are at such a poor level. thanks in large part of the way the by did ministration, is handled things, the one sided approach to, to what's been going on in ukraine. that, that there's not kind of a measure of goodwill. i mean, at some point you could have present decide, look,

just to try and recalculate the relationship with us. we're going to try to handle it and let this guy go. but at this point, when the us, this is not seriously talking to russia, is not making any moves to try and find a peaceful resolution of what's going on. and ukraine. it's not really the time for sort of a peace offering from food to try and, and ria, reevaluate and reassess to reestablish the relationship with the u. s. so i think the time will come when the ukraine conflict comes to an end, as president putin and russia, once you get back on good relations with, with europe in the us, that there will be some, some resolution of this issue. but i think we're still a long way from coming to that point. that seems to me this almost cat and mouse game going on these days with the american foreign ministers and american members of leadership going around the world. almost exactly in the footsteps of russia, whether it was janet ellen touring africa right when so allow for off, was there india for ministers of course. well, i guess it makes sense, but for,

for blink and touched on there as well, but it almost seems to be this cat and mouse game going on wherever the russian officials are going. oh burger, the americans are going. the russians are going as well. it's, it's almost all going on both sides. what is the deal here today is that some sort of competition for the hearts and minds? well there's, there's always the competition to the hearts and minds in propagandizing. i think again, the u. s. government wanting to make it seems like they are concerned about we live because they had such a high profile exchange for, for brittany grider and left him behind. i think also because there are not formal relationships going on. formal negotiations going on. china's military officials aren't even talking to u. s. military officials as things get more tense with, with russia or with china and us relations exacerbated by the chinese and russian folks coming together a bit. so i think these, these meetings are taking place on kind of the brush ups that we heard about in

india because they're not having formal sit down on to go. sions are not having formal discussions about big policy issues. so they're having to almost contrive these. oh, we just happen to run to each other in the hallway, even though many of these things are times so they do meet in the hallway. it is to kind of give the illusion that there's conversation serious conversation when it's really just kind of almost for taishan in the policy arena, not actual negotiations, political commentator, radio host or steve gail joining us live aeronautics international. appreciate your time. thank you very much. well setting the gears national priorities, that's what's in store for members of the chinese parliament as the so called 2 sessions is set to be held in the country on saturday. in advance of the event, a chinese official emphasize the importance of building an open, international economy. arnie are and yet in 2022. china overcame shocks from

unexpected factors, such as a complex and challenging international landscape. the coven 19 pandemic, and natural disasters while maintaining overall economic stability or economy was stood the pressure and has reached new highs. this did not come easily. china still faces a challenging environment due to international political and economic disturbances caused by political decisions by some major economies. still, the chinese economy remains resilient. china cannot develop in isolation from the international community, nor can the world develop without china. we are ready to work with international partners to build an open economy and create a brighter future for mankind. the term, the 2 sessions or a land way and chinese means the annual meetings, avia, china's top legislature and ca, political viceroy body together. so the together, they are known as the 2 sessions are less weight. so basically it's a very important event on china's a political calendars of china's top political advisory body or

a c p c. so the national committee has held the press conference this afternoon ahead of the opening of its annual session. he said, china's economy remains resilient when potential and vitality are adding that stable. busy grows and employment remain china's top priorities in 2023. that's after lot of obstacles and challenges we had over the past year and quasi pledge, china would continue opening up with concrete measures and provide new opportunities and drivers for global development. and here's another highlight for this u. c p, p c c session, but not a mention at the pressure for the 1st time in 3 decades to c p, p. c. c has included in the political visors in the environment and natural resources and sector to focus on environmental protection and a sustainable development the russian foreign minister. so kayla for offers, taking part in that i seen a dialogue. it's an international conference dedicated to tackling the world's

challenges. in his speech, she did call out western partners with 8 years of military campaigns around the world have unless when iraq was ruined. as a state, colin powell showed a vial with some powder. and then 2 years later, tony blair said, yes, it was a mistake. what to do if you believe that the united states has the right to the clear threat to its national interest. any place on earth leg, they didn't yugoslavia in iraq in libya, in syria, 7000 miles across the atlantic ocean. and they have the right to do so. and you don't ask them any questions. and the russia not just over night, like they did an iraq and elsewhere, but for more than 10 years, warning them just on our borders on the generators,

where the russians leave for centuries and centuries and centuries. so if there's not a double standard, then i'm not the minister. no, we did have a chance to speak with several of the conference participants about india. the strategic interests on its ties with russia. is what a fellow that deli school of trans, national affairs under co founder of the g o straw, a think tank at the se india's position on. but she was quite clear light for us, for she has been a guarantee which has been done on india's history with russia has been great good whether it was over with union or they got enrollment dates or india doesn't believe in whites and blacks. we do have some great ideas, right? so basically our prospect there was quite clear that need that we will be condemning directions, but we are okay to work with us your company. most orders are into this problem for india. i don't think in any near long term india ring to condemn russia. there is we're going to happen because condemnation is not indian breed. india has to do it its own way. as a minister. jason good has said that india shall not be any one site and we shall decide for us is what we have to do. and that is what we have done being bid that

osha is in our strategic interests and what our shareholders have be not fitting. we need to put odd in this list, and when people are interest for us to put those on these flows, which have been loyal to us trustworthy, i'm friendship. and one of that is their share. again, basically, india refusing to condemn russia for the conflict in ukraine as we keep seeing, essentially a strengthening of strategic relationships when it comes to brick, sir, are the asked see on the global south what we like to cold out of the dollarization co admission. what details about that right now, but also with the information wolf. almost all the independent journalists who pointed out that nato and the you.
